Saturday, August 20 2011 - First Responders/Health Effects
City snubs finest: Victims' kin, pols invited but 'no room' for first responders at 9/11 anniversary
August 13th 2011
WASHINGTON - The cops, firefighters and rescue workers who toiled at Ground Zero will not be invited to take part in the 10th anniversary ceremony, a city official told the Daily News Friday.
First responders will instead be asked back to the site at another day for a separate commemorative ceremony, city officials said.
Space and security logistics were at the heart of the decision, those involved said.
Family of the nearly 3,000 killed receive first priority at an event with maximum security.
President Obama's appearance will make the day even more of a security concern.
For many first responders, though, the news was a bitter pill.

"To have a separate service on another day has no significance, no meaning," said David Jacobs of Queens, who volunteered at the site sifting debris and who lost a childhood friend, a city firefighter, in the attacks.
"For many of us, we gave a lot at that site," he said.
As many as 91,000 people took part in the initial search and rescue and subsequent 10-month cleanup, according to estimates taken for the city.
In past years, first responders were welcomed to the annual commemoration because little or no construction had begun at the site and space was not at a premium.
Lawmakers also got word yesterday that their numbers were restricted. Only representatives from New York, New Jersey and Connecticut got congressional approval to attend.
House Speaker Rep. John Boehner (R-Ohio) Friday decided the government would pick up the tab for representatives from just those three states.
Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-Manhattan) had sought to make the event open to lawmakers from across the country since the devastation was a national tragedy, not just a regional event.
In contrast, all lawmakers are allowed to attend the memorial in Shankesville, Pa., where the hijacked United Airlines Flight 93 eventually crashed.

The Department manages a variety of reservoir parks, open spaces, and trails throughout Larimer County, from Estes Park to Loveland to Fort Collins to the northern County border. For detailed information, visit Parks, Reservoirs, Open Spaces, and Trails.
For areas that require entrance permits, you'll need a permit for each vehicle for each day or for each vehicle + boat trailer combination for each day. You can purchase daily permits, good from day of purchase to noon the following day, or you can purchase an annual entrance permit, valid for a physical year, month of purchase through month of purchase the following year. Annual entrance permits are transferable among vehicles registered to the same household.
Boats carried on or in a vehicle (e.g. kayaks, canoes) come in under the vehicle entrance permit. Vehicles with trailered watercraft come in under the vehicle + boat trailer combination permit. All permits are displayed in the vehicle passenger-side window.
To camp, you must buy a campsite in addition to the entrance permit. If you do not have a camping reservation, you must check in at specific locations in the parks. Check the signs at entrance stations.
Revenue generated from permit sales goes directly back into your parks and open spaces to pay for operating expenses (for example: trash collection, restroom supplies, picnic tables, etc.) and personnel expenses (for example: rangers and maintenance staff out in the field).
Your Open Lands Program operates on a quarter-cent sales and use tax. This money is used to protect open spaces, natural areas, wildlife habitats, regional parks, and trails.
These are Bureau of Reclamation reservoirs used for water storage. In the winter the reservoirs are filled and in the summer they are drawn down when the farmers call for water. Cities use the water, too, for industry and drinking water.
At Carter Lake, the average depth is 80 feet, with the deepest point being 180 feet. The deepest point in Horsetooth Reservoir is 212 feet.
Horsetooth Reservoir is 6.5 miles long and 1/2 mile wide with several coves. Carter Lake is 3 miles long and 1 mile wide, an oval. Pinewood Reservoir is 100 acres. Flatiron Reservoir is 47 acres.
You can boat at Carter Lake and Horsetooth Reservoir. Pinewood Reservoir has no-wake-speed boating—perfect for canoeing and belly boats. Flatiron Reservoir does not allow boats (this includes belly boats) due to rapidly fluctuating water levels.
There are vessel capacity limits on both Carter Lake and Horsetooth Reservoir. Those limits are often reached on weekends during the summer. At high water Carter Lake's maximum capacity is 187 boats. At high water Horsetooth Reservoir's maximum capacity is 380.
Horsetooth Reservoir, Carter Lake and Pinewood Reservoir require mandatory watercraft inspections for Aquatic Nuisance Species (ANS). This includes inspection of watercraft motors, trailers, compartments, and any other associated equipment or containers before launch or departure from high risk waters. The only exclusions to these inspections are: hand-launched rafts, kayaks, belly boats, float tubes, canoes, windsurfer boards, sail boards, or inner tubes.
More information on ANS inspections and boating access hours »
Horsetooth Reservoir – 5,430 feet; Carter Lake – 5,760 feet; Flatiron Reservoir – 5,470 feet; Pinewood Reservoir – 6,580 feet; Hermit Park Open Space – 7,880 to 8,964 feet.
Due to the Bureau of Reclamation's security requirements, no recreation activity is allowed on any of the dams, or within 100 feet of any of the dams while on land.
The best way is to Like our page on Facebook or Follow us on Twitter where staff provide real time updates from the field. Also, you can go online to Parks, Reservoirs, Open Spaces, and Trails, select the area you want, then "Current Conditions." The US Bureau of Reclamation often posts up-to-date information about Colorado lakes and reservoirs.
Some campgrounds are closed during the colder seasons. However, most parks and open spaces are open year round. Seasonal closure of Red Mountain Open Space is December to March because of winter weather changes and the wildlife requirements as set forth in the Management Plan for Red Mountain Open Space. The Keyhole Trail at Devil's Backbone Open Space is closed approximately March to mid June for nesting raptors.
At Horsetooth Reservoir you can walk the shorelines around South Bay and Inlet Bay. Horsetooth Mountain Open Space offers 29 miles of trails, and nearby Lory State Park has 25 miles.
Carter Lake has a 3-mile trail on the west side and a .2-mile trail on the southeast. There are 4 miles of trails at nearby Pinewood Reservoir and Ramsay-Shockey Open Space. Devil's Backbone Open Space, which is about 10 miles from Carter Lake, has another 13 miles of trails.
Hermit Park Open Space has two trails totaling about 5 miles, connecting to approximately 12 miles of trails in the National Forest next door. Rocky Mountain National Park is about 15 minutes away from Hermit Park Open Space. For more information see our Trails information.
Campgrounds are located all around the reservoirs. Some campsites are right next to the water, some are a little farther away. Hermit Park Open Space is 3 miles from Lake Estes.
It depends on the campground design; however, most allow a reasonable amount of room between campsites.
Campsites vary in size from walk-in tent sites to pull-through sites for large RVs and 5th wheels.
During the recreation season, Memorial Day through Labor Day, unreserved campsites are first-come, first-serve. Many visitors make reservations during this period, so unreserved sites are very limited. From October through April, almost all sites are available first-come, first-served.
Every designated campsite, with the exception of boat-in sites, has a numbered site marker, fire ring with a grill, and a picnic table. Some campsites have electrical hookups with 30 and 50 amp plugs, and a 20 amp GFI. At Hermit Park Open Space, Kruger Equestrian Campground, a horse corral is provided at each campsite. Every campground has drinking water and toilets. Full hookup sites include a combination of water, sewer, and electricity. Full hookup sites are only available at Horsetooth Reservoir.
423 campsites, 24 camper cabins, and a vintage airstream rental unit.
Yes, Horsetooth South Bay has full hookup sites. There are electrical hookups at several other campgrounds. There are two dump stations at Horsetooth Reservoir (one at Inlet Bay and one at South Bay), one dump station at Carter Lake (at the South Entrance on County Road 8E), and one dump station at Hermit Park Open Space. During the recreation season, drinking water is available in every campground.
The numbers depend on the specific site: however, the maximum for the largest sites is 8 people; 1 camping unit (for example: RV camper, pop-up) with an additional camping unit at an additional fee, and 2 tents; or 4 tents and no camping units.
Yes, you can, as long as you follow all Colorado State Boating Regulations and Coast Guard Regulations for lighting and overnight mooring. At Horsetooth Reservoir, boat-in campsites are available on the west side only, north of Inlet Bay. These sites can be reserved on the reservation system. Boat-in, land camping is not allowed at Carter Lake.
The only shore camping allowed is boat-in camping along the west side of Horsetooth Reservoir, north of Inlet Bay. These sites can be reserved on the reservation system.
The maximum time limit is 14 days within any 30-day period anywhere in the entire system. That means if you have stayed for 14 days in any campsites in any of our parks, you must leave for at least 16 days before returning.
No, most campsites do not have shelters, although there are a few at Carter Knolls Campground at Carter Lake, at Flatiron Campground at Flatiron Reservoir, at Inlet Bay Campground at Horsetooth Reservoir, and at Pinewood Reservoir.

You can reserve sites no sooner than 180 days and no later than one day before you want to come (for example: If you want to camp on Friday night, you have to make your reservation by Thursday before noon).
No refunds are given for weather.
It depends on the specific campground. Some campgrounds have trees and some campgrounds are in the open with few trees. At Carter Lake, Eagle Campground is in the pines, while South Shore Campground has cottonwoods. At Horsetooth Reservoir, the South Bay Campground has a few trees. Inlet Bay Campground has some trees. Flatiron Reservoir has some campsites in the trees and some campsites in the open. Hermit Park Open Space has several wooded areas.
Each campground has "semi-primitive" vault toilets. At Horsetooth Reservoir, boat-in sites 1,2,5,6,7,8,9 and 10 all have "semi-primitive" vault toilets nearby. Horsetooth South Bay, Horsetooth Inlet Bay, and Eagle Campground at Carter Lake, have flush toilets in the shower houses.
There is a playground at Eagle Campground at Carter Lake.
Yes. Horsetooth South Bay, Horsetooth Inlet Bay, Eagle Campground at Carter Lake, have their own shower houses. They are open for the season through October 31, 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. Showers take tokens ($1 per token, minimum 2 tokens) which can be purchased onsite.
Unless there is a fire ban or fire restrictions, campfires are allowed in the fire rings. At boat-in sites, fires must be below the water mark in the designated metal grate. Firewood collecting is prohibited in all Larimer County Parks and Open Spaces. See Regulations.
You'll need to bring it with you, or purchase it at a store before you get here. The Carter Lake Marina sells firewood. There is no wood gathering allowed in any of our parks. B.Y.O.W. – Bring Your Own Wood!
If you are camping at Horsetooth Reservoir you will need to bring firewood with you, or purchase it prior to your arrival. The two convenience stores near the reservoir normally carry firewood.
For Carter Lake, the Carter Lake Marina sells firewood. As does the office at Hermit Park.
Please remember there is no wood gathering allowed in any of our parks. B.Y.O.W - Bring Your Own Wood!
Pets are allowed and must be on leash, not more than 10 feet long, at all times. Owners must not leave their pets unattended and they cannot be tied to trees or bushes at the campsites. A maximum of 2 pets are allowed in each Camper Cabin. Pets are not allowed in the vintage airstream. See regulations ».
The only alcohol allowed is 3.2%, in cans only. No glass containers or kegs are allowed in the parks. See regulations ».
Swimming is allowed at the swim beaches only. There is a swim beach at Horsetooth Reservoir and a swim beach at Carter Lake. See regulations ».
Pets can be in the water but are not allowed at the swim beaches due to health concerns.

There are wheelchair-accessible campsites and bathrooms throughout the parks. Flatiron Reservoir has an accessible fishing pier. Pinewood Reservoir has two sections of accessible trail.
Mountain bikes are allowed. Only street-licensed vehicles are allowed to operate in the parks. ATVs, dirt bikes, snowmobiles, scooters, go-peds, pocket bikes, and similar devices are not allowed.
Yes, although there may be limitations if a fire ban or fire restriction is in effect. Signs are posted when a fire ban or fire restriction is in effect. Check with entrance station staff or rangers if you are unsure.
No, in order to protect the resources, no fireworks are allowed. The fire danger is too high. See regulations ».
At Horsetooth Reservoir, there a couple of options for supplies. There is a small convenience store at the south end of the reservoir and also on Shoreline Drive across from Inlet Bay. Both convenience stores sell fishing licenses. There is also a small convenience store next to the Canyon Grill on CR 38E before you turn onto Shoreline Drive. Inlet Bay Marina is a full service marina with limited provisions. There are many stores in Fort Collins, about 4 miles away.
For Carter Lake, Flatiron Reservoir, and Pinewood Reservoir, the Carter Lake Marina sells fishing licenses and has limited bait and supply options. The cities of Loveland and Berthoud are about 10 miles east.
Fort Collins, Loveland, Berthoud, and Estes Park offer a wide variety of restaurants.
It's great! The reservoirs are periodically and regularly stocked by the Colorado Parks and Wildlife. Depending on the reservoir, fish may include: walleye, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, wipers, rainbow trout, cutthroat trout, brown trout, lake trout, slake, carp, bluegill, yellow perch, black crappie, kokanee salmon, tiger muskie, or sizzoid shad. For more information on the CDOW stocking report go to their website at: http://wildlife.state.co.us/Fishing/Reports/StockingReport/
Ice fishing is not allowed. Water levels fluctuate too much which creates unsafe conditions.
It depends on the time of year. Spring and early summer (April – June) can be wet and rainy with warm days and cold nights. Summer months (June – August) can have warm to very hot days, cool evenings, and sometimes cold nights. July and August may bring thunder and lightning storms. Fall (September, October, and November) usually brings warm days, cold nights, little moisture, and no crowds. Winter (December, January, February, and March) is cold, with occasional snow storms.
No. Due to West Nile virus, we suggest that campers use personal, over-the-counter mosquito sprays.
We have six reservable group pavilions, for day use only: Horsetooth South Bay, Hermit Park Open Space, Carter Lake, Flatiron Reservoir, Lions' Open Space, Horsetooth Sunrise Day Use. They can be reserved from 730 days to 3 days in advance. Hermit Park Open Space and Horsetooth South Bay are popular ceremony sites. To make reservations: www.larimercamping.com or (800) 397-7795. There are no designated group camping sites, so groups need to reserve several individual sites together.

bj penn pass to mount
bj penn pass to mount
man, when you're the nail, hang in there....until the day you become the hammer
A few people saying pass to half guard then work from there. Well, these days being in someone's half guard (if you're not punching) isn't exactly 'halfway past the guard' so I think that doesn't count!
Personally...yes, being in half-guard has a good range of risks when you're on top. But the main difference between half and full is that most of those risks aren't submissions. Sure, you can get swept from half, but the odds of you getting submitted are much lower, which is why, given the choice, I'd rather be in someone's half guard than their full.
Just my $0.02,
Take care,

But i personally havesome difficult in setting this up. The only time that i can get to use this great pass is from standing when opponent attempt to scissior in an effort to stop you passing.
You care to give me some insight into the positions that you get it from?
Is there anything like a consensus as to what the simplest and most effective pass is?

Paul Walker dies in fiery car crash
(TMZ) - Paul Walker - best known for his role in "The Fast and the Furious" movies - died Saturday afternoon after a single-car accident and explosion in Southern California ... TMZ has learned.
[PHOTOS: Remembering Paul Walker]
According to TMZ, the accident happened in Santa Clarita - north of Los Angeles - and according to multiple sources connected to Paul ... the actor was in a Porsche when the driver somehow lost control and slammed into a post or a tree ... and then the car burst into flames.
Several sources - some who are still at the scene of the accident - tell TMZ Paul and another person in the car were killed. Law enforcement is still on the scene, and TMZ reports the L.A. County Coroner's Office is on the way.
At this point, it's unclear what caused the accident, or who was behind the wheel when it happened.
Paul was 40 years old.
Sources close to Paul tell TMZ he was in Santa Clarita for a car show to support the Philippines typhoon relief effort, and had been taking friends out for rides in his new Porsche GT. TMZ reports the accident happened during one of those test spins.
A rep for the actor confirms Paul died today in the crash after leaving a charity event.

Assuming that you did not do any adjustment with the antenna orientation or computer orientation, etc. I think the cause maybe a power/signal issue.
First have you checked whether or not you have set a country code in the .dat file? most chipsets have a setting which allows one to set to a country code suitable to where they live primarily because of radio communication restrictions.
Second is that have you tried to use other antennas, maybe more powerful ones or even directional ones?
Last but not least. I hear version 3.x from ASPj is from a new branch off serial monkey.. you may want to try the last of the 2.x versions.

Public Relations Policy
June 2005, revised October 2015.
The Library Director, staff members and Board of Trustees recognize the necessity of promoting good public relations to promote an understanding of the Library's objectives and services among governing officials, civic leaders, and the general public, as well as to promote active participation in the varied services offered by the Library to people of all ages. This policy identifies opportunities for developing positive relations with the community and promoting library programs and services.
The Board further recognizes that public relations involve every person connected with the Library. The Board urges its own members and every staff member to realize that he or she represents the Library in every public contact.
Traditional Media and Promotional Materials
Staff members will be delegated the responsibility of preparing press releases and promotional materials as designated by the Library Director.
The Library will send press releases to both traditional and online media outlets, including but not limited to newspapers, radio stations and television stations. Press releases may focus on regular or special programming, library services, Board news, general library information, etc.
Press releases and promotional items should look professional, be accurate, and provide a positive reflection of the Library.
Contacts initiated by the media should be forwarded to the Director, or in the case of programming, to the staff member in charge of the program.
In the event of an emergency, official statements to the public and the media will be made by the Director, or the person in charge of the Library according to the "chain of command." If it is necessary for other library staff to provide the public with information in such situations, library administration will inform staff what is to be said.
Library employees may engage in further public relations through speaking to local groups, participating in local organizations, visiting classrooms and conducting tours and informational sessions at the Library. The Director is expected to make presentations and to participate in community activities to promote library services.
Social Media
Library-sponsored social media is used to: convey information about library programs and services, raise awareness about Library and community issues, obtain patron feedback, exchange ideas or insights about library trends, reach out to potential new patrons and supporters and respond to breaking news or publicity.
Only employees designated and authorized by the Library Director can post, delete, edit or otherwise modify content on Library-sponsored social media. Any such employee with authorization to add or modify social media content is required to follow these general guidelines:
- Make sure all social media postings are accurate, without grammatical errors or factual misrepresentations.
- Maintain privacy, confidentiality and obtain permission to use other peoples content. If you are unsure whether or not to disclose any information, refrain from posting it.
- Find ways to engage patrons, including with the use of adding content that supports the Library's mission.
- Make sure all postings provide a positive reflection of the Library; all posts should be constructive and beneficial.
All public relations and promotion activities will be approved by the Library Director or designee(s).

Wednesday, July 28, 2010 -- Union question
I know that the university has to take a neutral position in regard to the unionization efforts by the ASEA, however it's very disconcerting to see the union make false promises to sway votes. Recently, fake parking tickets were placed on staff vehicles at UAF, advertising that the ASEA can "make parking permits go away," even though, for example, faculty members represented by the faculty union pay the same decal rates as everyone else. I'm not saying I'm opposed to reducing parking costs, but I am opposed to the ASEA advertising false promises in an attempt to sway votes for unionization. Are these types of false claims something that the University can address with the ASEA?
From Beth Behner, Chief Human Resources Officer
Parking fees apply to all employees who use parking lots at UAF's main campus. A fee is charged for parking decals whether employees are represented by a union or not. The only union that has a negotiated reduced rate for parking decals is the adjunct unit. Adjunct faculty members, who may only teach part time, are only required to pay half of the regular rate for their parking permits. Non-union employees who work less than half-time receive the same deal. The University considers it fair to charge these employees less for parking, as their use of UAF parking lots during normal working hours is also proportionally less. No union has negotiated lower rates for parking permits for full-time employees with the university. The university is unlikely to be able to agree with any union proposals for reduced parking costs when the rates in existence are designed to cover parking-related costs that the university must fund.
In response to your other point, the university is careful not to interfere with employees' rights concerning union organizing activities. That is what we would describe as being "neutral." But the university is able to actively address misinformation and unrealistic promises, while still observing employees' rights. While the university could ask ASEA to stop making promises that can't realistically be fulfilled, the union doesn't have to listen to the University. The union could simply continue to make promises designed to gain employees' support. Therefore, the university has found it more helpful to communicate directly with employees. It is the employees in the proposed unit who ultimately will be able to evaluate the union's promises in the context of facts and explanations provided by the university.
Please continue to bring union statements and promises to our attention if you think the claims are not supported; the university appreciates the opportunity to convey its position!
Wednesday, July 28, 2010 -- Logo merchandise and the bookstore
Rumor has it, that with the bookstore sale this week, and the overstock of clothing, the new contract with Follett Bookstores will entitle them to be the exclusive dealer of Nanooks logo wear. Does this adversely affect sales for the Athletic department? With their widely publicized budget woes, I'm concerned that (supposedly) removing a source of revenue with this bookstore contract will adversely affect the community, such as raised ticket prices, and the potential loss of programs, etc. Is any of this true?
Athletics stopped selling licensed merchandise last year. UAF has many licensed vendors that can sell merchandise with our trademarks but the sale of trademark merchandise on the Fairbanks campus and on websites is now limited to the bookstore.
Wednesday, July 28, 2010 -- L.I.F.E. program hours
I think the L.I.F.E. program is awesome - but our office takes staggered lunches so that our office can remain open all day. Since my usual lunch is from 1 to 2 p.m., I wouldn't be able to be in the SRC during my lunch hour, which is the ideal time for me to work out. Any chance of extending the mid-day hours to 2:15 p.m. (or revisiting the hours in the case of other employees who don't take lunch from 12-1)?
From Ruth Olsen, Athletics and Recreation
We recently discussed the L.I.F.E. program hours during a Spring SRC Board meeting. The L.I.F.E. program was implemented to promote UAF employees to work out prior to work, the typical noon lunch hour, and after work. Unfortunately we realize that these times may not work for everyone but we cannot cover individual special situations as each person would have a specific time that may work better for them.
Monday, July 26, 2010 -- Admissions and the Registrar
Admissions and the Registrar have been merged, but as of yet there has been no campuswide announcement to staff as a whole. Notifying Deans and Directors does not constitute notifying the UAF community.
The announcement was sent to deans, directors and department chairs on July, 28, 2010 with the expectation that information would be shared with various units.
The following announcement has also been included in the July 26 edition of the Cornerstonestaff and faculty newsletter.
The Office of Admissions and the Office of the Registrar have been reorganized and integrated. The new organization is now the Office of Admissions and the Registrar. Mike Earnest is the University Registrar and Director of Enrollment Services. T he phone number for the combined department is 474-7500. Students needing assistance should come to the window located on the first floor of Signers' Hall.
Monday, July 26, 2010 -- Geophysical Institute director retirement
I hear that Roger Smith is leaving the GI. Is this true?
Yes. After more than a decade at the helm of UAF's Geophysical Institute, Roger Smith has indicated that he'll be retiring from UAF June 30, 2011. A process/committee for recruiting a replacement has not yet been established.
Thursday, July 22, 2010 -- Rubber Duckie ticket sales
Is this true: "The Geophysical Institute Outreach Office is selling Rubber Duckie Race tickets in 611F Elvey. Tickets are $10 or $5." Answer: "Yes" just read the Cornerstone. So, my question is: How does UA justify this activity taking place during work hours? I have to admit I see all sorts of vending going on during work hours (Mary Kay, Avon and Girl Scout Cookies etc.) but I didn't think this was an approved activity. Now that I see vending advertised I am wondering?
Yes, a staff member from the Geophysical Institute Outreach Office staff volunteered to sell Rubber Duckie tickets on campus. UAF and the Geophysical Institute are non-profit members of the Greater Fairbanks Chamber of Commerce, which organizes this celebration of Fairbanks' rich history.
Offering the tickets is a simple way to participate and encourage involvement from the campus community. All proceeds from the ticket sales go back to Golden Days planning and activities.
The Geophysical Institute Outreach Office staff will also offer assistance with another Golden Days event, including the Young Pioneers Day. Several UAF departments or units plan to participate in the Golden Days Parade as well.
In addition to Golden Days, the GI Outreach Office and other staff participate in the Tanana Valley State Fair--another annual community endeavor.
Thursday, July 22, 2010 -- Nenana Parking Lot paving
With all the production (closing, prepping, etc.) on the parking lot across the road from the ice arena, why was only one-third of the lot paved?
Also, kudos to the grounds crew for removing the broken tree next to the entrance to Eielson so quickly, and efficiently. By 9 am one could hardly tell there had been a tree there at all.
This paving project was done with a combination of some parking and year end funds. The rest of the paving will be done as funds become available.
Friday, July 16, 2010 -- Gold parking spaces at Butrovich
Parking Services noted that "In addition, as of fall 2010 UAF will begin offering gold space parking on West Ridge including Arctic Health East and West, Elvey, O'Neil and Sheenjek lots."
Why is the Butrovich parking lot exempt from being converted to a Gold Decal lot?
Parking and Transportation is plans to assess the Butrovich parking lot along with other parking on West Ridge. Space will only be sold if there is sufficient demand in an area to create a manageable area of gold space. The final assessment will be completed in a few weeks.
Friday, July 9, 2010 -- UAF Summer Fun Card
It would be great if there were some sort of "UAF Summer Fun card" that for a fee---say, $100 or so---would provide unlimited access to the Museum, the Botanical Garden, and LARS (etc?), instead of having to buy memberships in each (or not, in the case of LARS). Does such a thing exist?
Currently, UAF doesn't offer an all-inclusive pass, but thank you for your suggestion. It has been forwarded to the appropriate offices.
Thursday, July 8, 2010 -- Office of Electronic Miniaturization facility
What will happen to the specialized equipment and custom space when OEM (Office of Electronic Miniaturization) shuts down?
The equipment and facility are being managed by the Institute of Northern Engineering while the university negotiates with the funding agency. It is expected that equipment not retained by the federal government will become available for UAF use. The facility will either be used to house UAF programs/offices, leased to an outside entity or sold.
Wednesday, July 7, 2010 -- Pot hole on Yukon Drive
Is the pot hole at the top of Tanana Loop, where you turn onto Yukon Drive ever going to be filled? It is getting bigger and there is another large crack developing next to it. I know funds are tight but a couple shovels of gravel would be a start.
Facilities Services has issued a contract to repair the hole and several others on campus. Unfortunately, pavement contractors are overbooked during the summer so they haven't been able to complete UAF projects yet.
Placing gravel in the pot hole would cause additional problems, but Facilities Services has scheduled a temporary repair July 7, so it should be a little better until it's permanently fixed.
Wednesday, July 7, 2010 -- Group e-mail accounts and Google Apps
Since UAF first began migrating e-mail accounts to Googlemail, OIT has not provided a clear solution as to what will become of departmental email accounts (fy----) which have not been migrated. I was told today that they will be eliminated in their current form come December 31 and "probably" migrated to Googlemail, but we've received no definitive news. These accounts are crucial for our department and this worries us. We're concerned they will be eliminated altogether. Can anyone tell us for certain what will happen to these accounts or how they will change?
From Karl Kowalski, OIT user services
OIT is in the process of determining the functionality of the departmental accounts that currently exist. The way the accounts are currently used varies from department to department and we have been examining the hundreds of accounts to figure out how best to meet specific requirements. In mid July, we will move three of these accounts to make sure they function as needed. The plan is to resolve any issues, then have other group account owners fill out a form to determine their particular needs and begin to migrate the remaining accounts.
We have also created a standardized naming convention. Each will begin with the MAU initials a period then the department or group name. For example, fymusic, will most likely become email@example.com.
We want to make sure that we provide the functionality that everyone expects. We will also not eliminate any functionality until we have a solid replacement in place.
Friday, July 2, 2010 --Desktop Alert Notices
I just received an "Alert" message from campus police which took over my computer screen and was impossible to miss. I thought it worked great. I'm wondering why some people in our office received this message and some did not, though. Do they need to sign up to receive this service? Thanks!
Friday, July 2, 2010 --Tent on campus
There is a tent (seen on June 30 & July 1) off to the left of the staircase going down to the time/temp sign on College/University. The tent is clearly visible a short distance down the stairs; it is a purple dome just a little ways to the left.

My only issue is charging current customers 5 bucks but not charging new customers. It just doesn't settle right for me
You know, I can honestly see both sides of the coin with the upgrade price. On the one hand, Intelliscreen doesn't stand to make droves and droves of new users. By this I mean, a large number of their future users are likely already current users. So they need some form of income to keep coming in to make it worth it for them to keep updating their software to work with newer versions of iOS. At the same time, let's not forget that this very group would be dead in the water if it wasn't for the FREE work that the jailbreak teams do every year to even make this software usable to the masses...
On the other hand, I can see users, like myself, feeling shafted for having supported Intelliborn over the years. I have already purchased the original, I purchased the upgrade, and now I need to purchase the upgrade AGAIN, for an additional $5. Maybe if the price was slightly lower people (again, I include myself in this) would be happier, especially since no new features were actually added.
As it stands, Intelliscreen is only marginally better than what stock iOS provides (IMO). I have missed toggles, and weather on the home screen, but other than that, everything else is still there. Messages+ is also good, but again, only marginally better than a quick swipe to respond to texts (assuming you've set iOS 6 up as such).
I totally agree with everyone. What makes me really sad is I would have stayed on IOS 5.0.1 but my phone would lose signal every 5 min or say invalid sim and required me to upgrade to ios 6 and now everything is fine.... I don't see any note worthy features in intelliscreen to justify me paying another 5$ for an upgrade 10$ was already steep. They NEVER added any new features like IM instant reply with very popular IMs like whatsapp kakaotalk and line. I don't understand this company is both LAZY and GREEDY.
If they made it 1$ i would have been okay with that.
Intelliborn should read this article:
Apple, iPhone and iPad News | ModMyi - Study Finds Correlation Between iOS App Price Drops and Average Revenue Growth
AT&T doesn't have the staff or the time to analyse every bit of data that users send & receive. They do random spot-checks on random bits data. If they find out that you are using tethering without paying for it, you're busted.
I don't know about AT&T, but as far as I know, here in the UK, if they find out, they send you an SMS or e-mail, telling you that you need to pay for tethering, and if you don't stop doing it, they will add the fee to your next bill.
Well I can see why an upgrade fee is frowned upon as a principle, but maybe they should have charged $175 one time fee and no upgrade fees. That is still substantially cheaper than buying the monthly plan from AT&T.
I bought originally for $20, happy to get the app and support the devs.
I bought the update a couple versions ago and happy to support the devs.
I will spend $5 and be happy to have an iOS 6 tether app!
I'm also happy that I have the equivalent of about one months AT&T fees invested for about 3 years of tethering!! Wow what a deal.
And as for all this talk about Apple not charging for updates, really people??? Apple is one of the guiltiest companies for gouging customers for things like an adapter for the new plug or $40 for a $.99 cost product.
I get the principle, but I think there may be some other points of views to consider.
Now if they will update My3G
Does anyone's MyWi 6 work? Mine crashes everytime when I enter a password for encryption.
Hey, I logged in here to voice my disgust.
I just got a New iPhone5, iOS 6.1, and upon Jailbreaking and reinstalling my Cydia apps, I discover that Intelliborn have seen fit to break the application (MyWi) for which I paid so that will no longer install. This, is c*nt of an act and completely out of line.
If this is what so called "serious" vendors in the JailBreak community do, then that is the last cent I spend on JailBreak apps.
I could have used a cracked version, but paid for the product because the app is high quality, well supported (bugfixes and updates) and I was happy to support what was clearly a solid development effort.
Breaking my application in order to f* me over for $5 is a broken idea.
It's not the money, it's the principle.
The probability of me (or anyone I know) buying anything else from Intelliborn is now zero. I wanted tethering on demand for my iPad, but screw it now.
I will now go and find a cracked version and install it.
I purchaged Intellscreen 5 on my previous iPhone and now IntelliscreenX 6 for my iPhone 5 on iOS 6.1
Now after 3 days, the app said: I have to download the license key.
So I start the IntelliscreenX 6 app and downloaded the license, it said "Downloaded" and respring after download.
But the app still stays in Trial condition.
I have reinstall the app, redownloaded the license, but nothing happens, still in Trial mode.
I have purchase the app with my gmail account and in Cydia I see the message: "Package Officially Purchased".
Intelliscreen 6 is now not working anymore because it is still in trial mode.
I search for support but can not find any email address.
That is why I place this problem here, I hope somebody can help me with this?
I used both trials for the lock info 5 and ISX6, had lock info 5 for a couple hours didn't like it, got the ISX6 trial instead and loved it instantly my trail expired last night so i had to pay $10, but seeing the difference for me personally the price is more then reasonable.
As a software engineer with 30 years of conmercial experience behind me, I can say categorically, that if I had pulled the sort of crap that Intelliborn are doing, I would have been unemployed and poor. MyWi costs 20 bucks, which is f*ing expensive for an iPhone app, and they want 5 bucks every time Apple upgrades. Not because their app is incompatible, but because they are greedy f*s. I hope someone cracks the app and plasters it all over the internet - they deserve no less.

Survivor Guitarist Pays Tribute To Band's Late Singer
Listen to Survivor Radio on iHeartRadio
Survivor's Frankie Sullivan is remembering his late bandmate Jimi Jamison as a great singer and a great man.
In a Facebook post the guitarist praises the singer's talents, saying he called Jimi "Golden Throat" "for good reason." Frankie describes Jimi's voice as "magic," explaining "it was massive and huge yet sweet and gentle." He adds that Jamison was "a loving soul" with "a loving heart," and was "a brother" to him "in many ways."
Frankie admits he's struggling to express his pain and sorrow over such a "deep loss," and there's "no way to explain" it. He adds that knowing Jimi is "in the best of places" provides "little comfort" to him and the others Jamison left behind, and he'll be greatly missed.
Check out the full post below:
Jamison's booking agent announced his death earlier this week, saying the singer passed away Sunday after suffering a heart attack. Jimi played what turned out to be his final concert with Survivor Saturday night in Morgan Hill, California. He was 63.

ITU has agreed on updates to its widely deployed optical transport network (OTN) standards, including ITU-T G.709. The revisions provide mapping of a recently launched next generation high-rate Ethernet standard from IEEE into the OTN.
Collaboration between ITU-T Study Group 15 and the IEEE P802.3ba 40Gb/s and 100Gb/s Ethernet Task Force ensured that these new Ethernet rates are transportable over optical transport networks.
Malcolm Johnson, Director, ITU Telecommunication Standardization Bureau: "Ethernet has evolved from the local area network of choice to become a real carrier grade solution. Co-hosted meetings and workshops, and a recognition that close collaboration was mutually beneficial, has led IEEE and ITU to agree a common mapping between the IEEE P802.3ba 40Gb/s and 100Gb/s standard and the ITU-T G.709 optical network standard. I have no doubt that the scalability provided by this excellent example of standards collaboration will see an acceleration in end-to-end Ethernet deployment."
ITU-T Recommendation G.709 "Interfaces for the Optical Transport Network (OTN)" describes a means of communicating data over an optical network. It is a standardized method for transparent transport of services over optical wavelengths in dense wave division multiplexing (DWDM) systems.
Operators are facing challenges with the migration from traditional SDH/SONET to IP/Ethernet based services. ITU-T G.709 OTN is a vehicle to enable convergence, and for providing a common and SONET/SDH-like operational model for network administration, performance monitoring and fault isolation, without altering the individual services.
Using OTN, multiple networks and services such as legacy SONET/SDH, Ethernet, storage protocols and video can all be combined onto a common infrastructure.
Most importantly, unlike SONET/SDH, OTN is the only transport layer in the industry that can carry a full 10/40/100 Gb/s Ethernet signal from IP/Ethernet switches and routers at full bandwidth. With the rapid migration towards IP/Ethernet-based infrastructure, OTN becomes the transport layer of choice for network operators.
Sterling Perrin, Senior Analyst, Heavy Reading: "Heavy Reading network operator surveys have consistently shown strong and immediate operator demand for 100 Gigabit Ethernet, driven by the rapid increase in global IP traffic and exhaustion of existing 10 Gigabit networks. The collaboration by these two standards bodies, and the resulting standard, is exactly what the telecom industry needs to bring the next generation of Ethernet transmission to market. Heavy Reading fully expects this announcement to drive rapid market adoption."
The amendment to ITU-T G.709 is part of a set of revisions that provide for interworking with the new Ethernet standard. Equipment functions that perform the mapping are part of revised ITU-T G.798, equipment management functions are part of revised ITU-T G.874, and the jitter characteristics of this (and other) mapping(s) are in revised ITU-T G.8251.
A paper that outlines more technical detail related to this announceent can be found below.
John D'Ambrosia, Chair, IEEE P802.3ba Task Force Director: "Developing the next generation of Ethernet required consideration of the entire eco-system in which it resides. Communications between the IEEE and ITU-T addressed the issues that would impact the end-to-end Ethernet deployment. This interaction led to the two bodies developing standards that complement each other in order to ensure the optimal solution for 40GbE and 100GbE. I would like to express my gratitude to the ITU-T for its co-operative efforts with the IEEE P802.3ba Task Force. Furthermore, I would like to congratulate the ITU-T on the completion of its G.709 specification, which is part of the optimized 40GbE and 100GbE end-to-end solution."

Discussion in 'Draft Zone' started by Manster68, Jan 3, 2008.
...it will have to take a trade up.
That was a very nice pick-6 in the Orange Bowl.
Trade up??
the CB class looks really strong this year, alot of guys to choose from, although I don't see a real blue-chipper/Terrence Newman in the group, but still good
Jenkins from THE Ohio State
Mike Jenkins
his teammate Trae something or another
Leodis McKelvin
Tracey Porter
Tarrell Thomas
those are just the guys off the top of my head
Combine will tell all with him. Not sure if his top-end speed is elite. (In fact, I'm pretty sure it's not.)
But he's a great ballhawk. If the ball is near him, he usually gets his hands on it somehow.
if his speed isn't up to snuff, expect him to go 2nd round to a cover-2 team
He did get beat deep on a few plays later, but to his credit he had the speed to close in on the receiver after getting beat initially and he made a play on the ball. Ultimately he got lucky that the WR dropped it, but without a doubt he had a role in forcing the incomplete.
I still think he'll be the 4th corner taken.
How do you think it will shake down, Corner wise?
Probably Malcolm Jenkins in the top 15, then Mike Jenkins/Cason both somewhere between 15-25, then Talib.
I'm guessing slightly higher than what you are saying.
Good corners are usually a hot commodity in the first round of the draft.
That is why I am iffy about Talib.
It is common for three corners to be taken before the 22nd pick.
The receiver had to all but stop for the underthrown pass.
Not my definition of catch-up speed.
i thought the talk of him last year was he has great speed and that was his whole deal
Actually, I was going to add to my post that the receiver wasn't really slowing to catch an underthrown pass. He might have slowed some, but he didn't stop. They were both in full stride. Maybe I'm wrong, but I watched it a couple times. I don't have in on DVR anymore, though.
I could be wrong, but I think the talk was about his big-play ability, he had 7 INTs last year
haha who knows there was alot of talk about alot of CB's around draft time last year . That was a nice pick though.
I don't use a DVR, either.
But the first thing that I thought of when it happened was that it was a touchdown if the receiver hadn't been underthrown.
He didn't stop, but he had to slow down and adjust to the ball. That allowed Aquafresh to get back in the play, IMO.
It was a lot like watching a Troy Aikman pass to Michael Irvin, he almost never hit him in stride and Emmitt Smith has the rushing touchdown record because of all the tackles inside the 5 yard line.
Thats one thing I really dislike about the Holidays is that everyone starts basing a propects future on a single game or even play from a bowl game.
Bad teams like the Raiders *cough* Russell *cough* do things like that .
I also dislike how people dismiss a player because he hasn't done anything his rookie year
I've seen Talib all season and can tell you he has good speed not burner speed. But the dude can also play WR and I don't mean just Randy Moss routes either. He will be a first round pick unless he falls on his face at the combine.
I do not want him.....he is not very good....the combine will define him to the middle of the pack
For us to get him, he would have to declare.
I think he's a JR.....

Hospitality industry partners with DHEC in going green
The South Carolina Hospitality Association has partnered with the state Department of Health and Environmental Control Office of Solid Waste Reduction and Recycling to form the South Carolina Green Hospitality Alliance.
The program is designed to help hotels, motels, restaurants and other hospitality facilities go green.
"Each of us—government, business, industry and individuals—must do our part to help protect South Carolina's environment," said DHEC Commissioner Earl Hunter. "This program presents a unique opportunity for the hospitality industry to lead by example through the use of smart, sustainable, cost-effective practices that help conserve natural resources, save energy and reduce pollution."
To be a member of the South Carolina Green Hospitality Alliance, hotels and restaurants must complete an audit of their property's compliance with unique eco-initiatives that are designed to create a more sustainable environment. Environmentally friendly measures that are reviewed include energy efficiency, water conservation, recycling, environmentally safe cleaning, reduction of waste, ongoing maintenance, purchasing habits and other factors. DHEC will offer free, confidential assistance through site visits, workshops and a comprehensive series of best-management practices fact sheets.
For more information, visit DHEC's Web site: http://www.scdhec.gov/greenhospitality. There, you can also find a program application and a listing of certified facilities.

At least 31 people lost their lives on California's roadways over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend, up significantly from last year though the number of drunken driving arrests seemed to be on the decrease, according to early numbers released by the California Highway Patrol on Sunday.
A total of 31 people were killed in driving accidents statewide from 6 p.m. Wednesday to 6 a.m. Sunday, according to CHP officials. That number was up from the 21 killed in 2011 for the same period.
Thirty-two fatalities were reported last year for the entire extended holiday weekend - 6 p.m. Wednesday to midnight Sunday.
A total of 1,210 suspected drunken driving arrests, were made as of 6 a.m. Sunday, compared with 1,350 for the same period last year, officials said.
At least one fatality was reported in the High Desert.
On Saturday morning, a Las Vegas man, Craig Suave, 44, was killed in an off-roading incident at Dumont Dunes, northwest of Baker. Suave was riding a quad when he collided with another off-road vehicle, San Bernardino County coroner's officials reported late Saturday night.
The total number of fatalities and DUI arrests for the entire extended holdiday weekend won't be available until today, according to a CHP news release.
Those trying to make it home from their holiday weekend Sunday afternoon had to battle some sluggish traffic, the most severe reported Sunday afternoon and evening in Riverside County.
As of 6 p.m., traffic was moving in spots at about 7 miles per hour on the westbound 10 Freeway starting at Cathedral City, according to SigAlert.com, and continued at a crawl until the Beuamont area, where it cleared up. No crashes were reported.
Travelers heading south on the 15 Freeway through the Cajon Pass did experience some slowing in the Victor Valley area of the High Desert, but speeds remained at an average of 30 to 35 miles per hour, officials said.
Motorists on the southbound 5 Freeway north of Valencia experienced some slowing with speeds as low as 15 mph around 6 p.m., according to SigAlert.com. No problems were reported on the southbound 101 coming into the San Fernando Valley.

alex getting battered on twitter after last night, but if they were to fight and he was up for it, who ya got?
Do not rate barnes at all, just my opinion! Alex Reid will be looking for a big name what does a fight with Barnes get him?
He needs a fighter that will stand with him, and not wrestle fuck!
Marshmann would be good fight.
I agree but if you believe what you read on twitter leeroy would run right through him!
He is good at publicity, it stops there, his mma career will end pretty soon, so he is screwed for money, so may ask ell try and get money and big fights now, because its over within 5 years.
Record is terrible, so no chance of tuf series either.
They could end up having a rematch with Reid and Prof X. The last fight was inconclusive, BAMMA could play on that and the fact X is an ex UFC fighter.
Alex is still a level above Barnes but you can see why Barnes is trying to get the fight, and back on BAMMA. Good call Matty H!
Andy Lillis, Former Cagewarriors President
Reid vs Mark Weir, think this is a fight Reid has wanted for a long time
I personally think Barnes would maul Reid, especially if he fought like he did last night.
As Leeroy has much better wrestling and thats were the fight would end up.
Baroni - "I'm the man, the fucking man, the best ever, ever"
Leeroy has better boxing aswell
Liam Bad Intentions James, pro mma uk featherweight!!
Reid v professor x would be a good fight but i think they will look at some one like trigg
the bullshit stops when the cage door locks!!! @prosystemsmma @Ryanwhitemma

'Darcy Regier pointed toward prospect Marcus Foligno as a player who played a similar style to Zack Kassian. No arguments here. Foligno is smaller at 6-foot-2, 215 pounds, but he was the more polished player and more mature person coming out of junior. So why wasn't the left winger, terrific for the past month in Rochester, summoned to help the struggling Sabres for more than a game?'

text: One final tour of 72 dates for the band Motley Crue before they hang up their leather pants and wigs and play golf all day. First of all, the tour will be extended beyond 72 dates so the first part is a lie. The second thing is that they say the band has agreed to never use the name again after this tour. Uh huh. So, when a couple of them start running out of money the next few years who will want to use it first? Someone will. No matter what you heard or they said there will be another Motley Crue tour. Sure, they are basically a self tribute band at this point and haven't done anything original in several decades but they can still make money. On tour. They just won't make enough to cover their expenses doing anything else but playing so they will be back. What they will do is get together for some television event or charity thing and decide to go on the road again and then never get off. This announcement is just about driving ticket sales and getting a higher price for the tickets.

New stuff is invented every so often. Amirite?
Must be tough for a top black belt to travel to train with someone who has worked out something new. Getting pwned until they pick it up. Really?
Equally weird for someone to arrive at your academy and son you by teaching you something new. Are top players taking lessons behind closed doors?
Or are some people tempted to teach and put in to practise what they already know?

Which should I use for my baby's teeth?
Hi everyone!
My baby started to grow her first tooth when she was about 9 months. At 10months, she now has 4 teeth. However, I've noticed that my baby's upper tooth has a bit of discoloration, which made me want to start brushing her teeth. But what may have caused this slight yellowish discoloration? And I have a bit of a dilemma which is best to use - should I use toothbrush with bristles or a rubber toothbrush for her teeth? And is it already safe to brush her teeth with toothpaste? What toothpaste can you recommend?
I'm very eager to hear your thoughts/opinions on this.
Thank you!

It's recommended that you begin brushing your children's teeth as soon as they get them and many dentists even recommend that you clean their gums before the teeth come through. Once they have two teeth that are touching, floss should be introduced. Most dentists also recommend that children see them for the first time by the age of one, so this would be a great time to make an appointment with a local practitioner and discuss your concerns regarding the discoloration.
As for what toothpaste to use, she is too young for fluoride but there are many training pastes out there that do not contain any fluoride at all. You could even just opt to use warm water or a little bit of baking soda if she tolerates it. You could also go with xylitol wipes, which have been clinically proven to help prevent cavities in small children, rather than using a paste and brush.
As for the device to use, it is really a matter of preference. A soft bristled pediatric brush is fine, a rubber thumb brush is fine, and even a cloth or the wipes I mentioned above would probably still be OK.
I hope that helps!

I will consider your advise on the dentist checking the discoloration and in choosing which toothbrush since both are fine. Thank you for your opinion on this. It is very helpful.

It can be a long climb to the top of the corporate ladder. We asked tech CEOs who've reached the highest rung to share their first job experiences. Some were entrepreneurs at an early age, offering lawn-mowing and scuba diving services. Others toiled in the fields and factories. Many got their hands dirty, scrubbing oil stains off asphalt, cleaning bathrooms, and shoveling monkey cages. Here are their stories. (See also 12 career tips from tech CEOs.)

Jim....here is a picture of three of my handbuilt mugs. I have terra sig on the bare clay.
Those are nice. I like the design for the bottom. Is that just a really deep foot, that you cut the half-circles out of?
Benzine.....Yes, more or less. After I form the cylinder for the mug body, I insert the bottom about 3/4 inch up inside the cylinder and coil it in, top and bottom. Then I cut out the 'feet' using a small biscuit cutter. When I glaze, I can glaze everything except the slight edge going around the feet. By cutting the circles out to form the feet even with the bottom insert, if the mug is washed in a dishwasher, it drains well....no puddles in the base. Does that even make sense? Hope so.
