While talking about Feng Shui, it is an ancient philosophical approach on building construction and positioning of various elements in the house or a place. It was only heard in many parts of the world some years ago and after the news of China becoming a major power, people from all parts of world showed especial interests in the Chinese cultural studies.
Like Indian Vastu Shastra, Feng Shui is also based its foundation in the directions and subsequent energy requirement of all living beings. If the house or the building is constructed and its various elements such as rooms, doors or windows placed according to the Feng Shui, it is believed that it can pass positive energy to the human beings.
Like any other building or home, Feng Shui offers lot of tips for the well being of the occupants in an office. Office is the place from where you generate your income. There are some limitations when you are in a work place for the application of Feng shui. If it is your own independent company, it is easy to adopt many tips, but if you are employed or space constraints, it can be tried in different ways. Office Feng Shui is little bit different from other and it is important to know about the pakua (bagua). It is an octagonal grid divided into some 9 sections. All these nine sections represent nine things, namely;
1) Relationships area (personal as well as business)
2) Wealth area or economic conditions
3) Fame are– relates to your position in the world
4) Elders are – either it is an old family member or a mentor
5) Creativity are – source of inspiration
6) Contemplation are – it is related to meditation either spirituality or relaxation
7) Journey are – path of your life
8) Friends area – it is about your relationship to others and mentors
9) Unity area – it is the centre of the room
Often it is represented in rectangle shape and while cutting the rectangle, we can see the underlying octagonal shape.
When the pakua pattern is placed on a floor plan, it will pinpoint the specific areas that may influence the above nine areas. Symbolic items can be kept all those areas to enhance those areas in your life pattern.
There are two thoughts on this – one is talking about Chinese compass and its orientation towards south (fame), it is aligned towards the south wall of the building. The second approach in Feng shui aligns the lower aspect of the Pakua, with the wall containing the front door. This can be totally against the first system.
Also you should look for a neighbourhood which is prosperous and which can add value to your life. Entrance of the office should be well decorated and in the sense it should be an inviting one.

Hello everyone my keyboard was working fine then all of a sudden it started acting up. Now when I boot into linux the keyboard works fine till I start the Xsever. At first I thought that the keyboard stopped working so I restarted it and still had the same problem. I ended up restarting it 8 times then I finally got pissed off and started to hit the keyboard now when I was done hitting it I kinda kept my hand on it and noticed it still types but I have to hold it for a long period of time for it to start typing. I have to hold the button for like 1-2 Sec for it to type one letter. Then i checked the keyboard setting and they where fine so any suggestions would be great.
Please Please get back to me on this I really don't want to reinstall it.
One day your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure its worth watching.

text: Hi all, We've got a high-availability scenario happening with two Torque servers and for the most part it's pretty good. The failover is pretty slick and so on. But we have found a problem for which I can't find a solution. We have two servers, named A and B. They both run "pbs_server --ha" and whichever one is active opens up port 15001 for incoming requests. If I kill server A, B picks it up pretty quickly. Job IDs are all suffixed with A's FQDN, which is consistent with the documentation, since A is the first listed server in all configurations. Even if B is active and A is dead, new jobs will have IDs such as 498243.A.uvic.ca. It turns out this is a problem for client nodes, even if they are properly configured with /var/spool/torque/server_name containing "A,B". If specifying a job ID "49824.A.uvic.ca" when B is active, this fails: C$ qstat 85112.A Cannot connect to specified server host 'A' qstat: cannot connect to server A (errno=111) Connection refused If only "85112" is specified, then it works as expected. It's only when the full job ID is used that it fails. "qstat" to simply list the jobs works fine. I don't see any way to override the job IDs, although I would personally prefer it if I could make the job IDs not use the server name. But we have third-party software that cannot be reconfigured to use just the numeric part, so the failover breaks this software, and it seems odd to me in any case that I can't specify the full job ID if in a failover situation. I didn't see anything in the archives or documentation that deals with this. Any thoughts? Thanks, Drew.

REDLANDS -- Every Wednesday at The Grove School, members of the community stand in as teachers to lead specialized elective classes called mini courses.
The Grove School is a public charter school with a Montessori-based, hands-on approach to education.
Mini courses were incorporated into The Grove School curriculum because of the ideals of turn-of-the-century educator Maria Montessori, who believed that students needed to have time to learn about an array of new things to help them grow as people.
The classes are taught mostly by instructors brought in from the community, although some are teachers at the school.
The guest teachers do not need a degree in the subject that they are instructing, but they all have to have extensive experience in the area they teach.
According to the principal of The Grove School, Gena Englefried, the community members chosen to teach need to be passionate about the subject they are teaching.
The subject itself does not have to be strictly academic, either.
In the past, there have been mini courses on rock climbing, ultimate Frisbee, martial arts and even Quidditch.
The students get to choose their own class, which lasts for one trimester.
The teachers say they believe that mini courses help students experience something new that they are interested in.
"Mini courses benefit students because they allow them to experiment and experience things that they may not have been exposed to in another environment," said Grove English teacher Kelly Kallner.
"It gives the students an outlet of expression," said Grove history teacher Andrew Christopherson.
Current mini courses include stage design, yoga, bullwhip, the Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame, French, painting, journalism and 3-D computer modeling.
"I like (the mini course opportunity) because it gives us a chance to do something we want to do and not what we have to do," said student Savannah Callison.
Not only are the mini courses beneficial by giving the students a mid-week break, but some of them can help students get into college.
One of Grove's seniors said her Future Farmers of America mini course helped her get accepted by the colleges she applied to, and she is now on her way to Fresno State as a pre-veterinary medicine major.
Students have said they hope to have mini courses on airsofting, volleyball, fashion design, dance and musical instrument basics.
Kaitlyn Berry, Paloma Olmos, Garrett Durham, Dennis Miller and Gloria Chavez are Grove students taking the mini course on journalism taught by Daily Facts editor Toni Momberger. firstname.lastname@example.com

Not a fan of it at all.
Having a coaching staff with zero NFL experience will really worry me.
As Dingo stated, you've tried to meld a number of systems together - we've seen that not work

I don't hate it. I like the Smith addition and the draft. I don't see Patton falling far. Mathieu is a low risk pick so I can live with that. Braxton Cave seems to be a common pick around here.
I think I'd rather have Louis Nix over Cave.

I see the effort...first Tag mock, that's a lot of pressure.
I actually believe the coaching staff would turn out like this if you grab a college coach. He has no NFL ties to really speak of so why not grab people your accustomed to.
With that being said there's some things I dislike:
-DRC getting paid as well as Nnamdi?
-Trading down twice in the draft I understand its a to accumulate more picks but some of those picks are going to help us yr one or two.
-Not a big fan of the 34 with our current personnel Chase Thomas and Branch, Jesse Williams help but I think your trying to appeal to the posters by keeping around the 43 because of guys like Cole, Kendricks & Ryans
-The way the roster is set up there are no ST warriors just guys who play a 43 and guys who play 34
Things I do like
-Two WRs Patton is going to be nice I brought him up awhile back...
-I like Mathieu's ball skills and return ability I think in order to get him you'll need to spend a 4th
-Even though there's a few too many FAs getting Byrd and Lester would be a dream
-I like Delanie Walker, I think he could be a nice #2 for us
-I like how you took from the front office of winning ball clubs
Things I'd change
-The hybrid works for the Ravens/Seahawks because the same guys aside from maybe 1 guy can come in and change the front I don't know if that's what your going for but I'm unsure if 3-4 different players subbing in to change fronts would be ideal.
-Also in the 34 you have Cole backing up Thomas while Kendricks backing up Graham, maybe flip Cole/Kendricks or move Kendricks inside where he played in the 34 in college.

First off...mad props
.....while we both did the research, he took the time to do all the writeups, pictures, and finalizing.
To address some of the issues....
Yeah...the coaching staff is inexperienced. But couldn't you see Chip picking guys like this? Also, Harbaufh brought his DC Fangio from Stanford and he's been fine...so I dokt see why people think Smart would have issues transitioning to the NFL...
Maclin is probably a goner by years end...Why not trade him for a guy who could be our QB of the next 6-8 years? Flynn never got a real shot and if he does end up becoming great...that's a steal for him.
Also I believe that Nnamdi and JP both were supposed to take paycuts....Roll just left it off on accident it seems. No biggie
As for the draft....Ninja....Cooper isn't a backup. He would take the job from Mathis within a couple weeks of the season...maybe even before. Just listed Mathis first because he's a vet. I think spending a late first on a guard prospect of Coopers caliber is fine....t worked out for SF didn't it? Cooper and Warmack are both studs and are the two best G prospects to come out in a long time. The draft is very deep and as you can see we stockpiled a lot of.picks....so I don't see why taking a guard is an issue.
Prettyy much every defensive player drafted is perfect for Kirby's defense...which will be similar to what he ran at Bama. All of those guys can play in a 4-3....Chase Thomas is incredibly versatile....same with Williams...Buchanan IMO could be an amazing 4-3 DE. He's an incredible athlete......which is what we wanted to draft....Athletes.
I wanted to change our WR corps drasrically....I personally think that this group would be amazing. We have three guys who are 6'3 or bigger.....we finally have a true number one receiver with Rogers....and as Roll said DeSean can finally be uses the way he's supposed to be used.....Think about how often hell be open underneath with these guys...
As for FA....I don't think its that wild. We brought in one of the FA przes in Byrd....Then Andre Smith who is flyinf under the radar a bit and who btw is a stud....Alan Branch is really good..but he's a bit of an unsung hero...he wouldn't be that expensive....same with Delanie Walker....he has #1 TE potential and would.come relatively cheap....McClain and Alexander are moreso young rotational players....Other than Smith and Byrd...basically all our FA signings are backup/role players...
Also I think.people are really underrating Jeff Stoutland and the impact he would have here. Dude is an amazing coach..college or pros. Andre Smith is similar to DJ Fluker and Stoutland would be able to get the most out of him just like he did with Fluker.
Obviously oour mock isn't perfect and amazing....but I think we did a fine job. Its more difficult thN you'd think with two people. Hopefully we get to see a few more of these...as I believe we were the first team to post ours.

Sorry I did forget to add the restructured contracts. They are up now.
I'm not going to get very defensive with this mock. I understand that you can't please everyone with these things since different people are looking for different things.
However, I would like to address some of the questions and comments.
Regarding this coaching staff having no NFL experience, I think that criticism is fair for the offensive side of the ball. But as one poster pointed out, if we hire an innovative college mind like Chip Kelly, that is to be expected. That is kind of the allure of hiring Chip Kelly. That instead of playing catch up with the latest innovation in offense in the NFL, we will be the ones leading in that aspect. I feel like handcuffing a guy like Norv Turner to Chip Kelly would be a conflict.
On the defensive side of the ball, saying that this coaching staff has no NFL experience isn't entirely true. Kirby Smart coached safeties for the Miami Dolphins in 2006. He knows what coaching in the NFL is like. Obviously he would have more to learn but he has experience calling plays on defense.
Free Agents / Trades
There are a good number of moves. But not so much that it is unbelievable. This mock has us adding 7 veteran players. In our "big" offseason after the lockout, we added 15 players.
Byrd is our big signing. Safety is a position that we absolutely must address. Byrd is an obvious upgrade over anything we have on the roster right now.
Smith is a key signing but with Jake Long likely to hit the market, he isn't going to be the most sought after tackle in free agency. Failing to address tackle this offseason would be a mistake. Instead of drafting a tackle and signing a guard, we went with signing a tackle and drafting a guard.
In order to make the transition to the 3-4 that Kirby Smart wants to run, we have to add players that are capable of playing in both the 3-4 and 4-3. Alan Branch has done both. As has Rolando McClain. Branch and McClain aren't exactly the most costly players. Essentially we would be swapping out Cullen Jenkins for Branch. McClain comes cheap but has a lot of upside since he would be reunited with his old defensive coordinator.
Danario Alexander and Delanie Walker are such small signings. I don't think they really add to the outrageousness of this mock free agency.
The Flynn trade is a reflection of the plan for the future. I will elaborate in the outlook section.
On the depth chart is shows that Mathis would start over Cooper. This won't last for very long. Cooper isn't anything like fireman Danny. He can play and he is young. Since Warmack is also in this draft, Cooper drops. If not, Cooper would be taken much earlier. We need a solid offensive line moving forward. I don't want any question marks.
It only takes one bad offensive lineman to make the whole unit look bad.
This entire offseason is largely built around solidifying the offensive line for the future.
The rest of the draft is mostly about building a roster for the future through the draft. Someone made a comment about not changing the culture. We are adding a good number of players in the draft that played at the University of Alabama. Guys who come from a winning culture and guys who have played in a disciplined system. The hope is that it carries over to the NFL.
Most of the defensive guys that we drafted are capable of playing in a 4-3 or 3-4. The ones that aren't capable of starting in both are situational players for either. Also, guys like Nico Johnson and Tyrann Mathieu will contribute on special teams. Johnson was a special teams star at Alabama when he was younger.
There was a few comments about how the rebuild should be a two year process.
This is meant to be a two year rebuild at the least. However, just because it is a two year rebuild doesn't mean that we shouldn't try to do the most we can every offseason to get better. We added an extra 2nd round pick for the following year's draft.
We have veteran leaders like Trent Cole and Demeco Ryans who don't necessarily have a strong role in the 3-4 but we can't just cut out all leadership. As those players get older, we can move on from them and complete the transition.
Flynn isn't meant to come in and be the future QB. I just don't feel like there is a stud QB prospect in this draft outside of Geno Smith. And I even have my doubts about him. We have to do what we can until we find our future QB.
pointed out, we are changing the type of WRs on this team. Maclin didn't necessarily have a place here anymore. We used him and 4th round pick to add competition at the QB position. I think that is great value.
This team isn't a Superbowl winner in year one. But it is definitely better than 3-13. This offseason would change the culture of the team and give us an entirely new look.
The big holes heading into the offseason are safety, offensive line, and red zone play. We added two new starting safeties, made the offensive line a strength, and fixed our red zone issues by adding tall and physical receivers. The big bodies should help in the red zone. Most of all, new play calling in the red zone should help.
Hope this answers a lot of questions and responds to most of the comments. Sorry if I missed some.
Thanks everyone for the input and for taking the time to read the mock!

As I said in the prior page - you do not account for the fact that this mock would drive this team well above and beyond the salary cap - simple math takes you well over. Taking into account your cuts, your re-signings and your free agents, you are $18 million over the cap.
I don't think you're saving $18 million by re-structuring Peters and Nmandi and even if you do - you still have to sign all of your draft picks. It's unrealistic for that reason alone...
Byrd, Smith and Branch would be a coup for free agency, but once again it's unrealistic, not only because the cap number left would push you over, but you don't account for any of these teams potentially re-signing their own players.
I would be shocked if two of those three players are not franchised and or re-sign. Plus, that takes away from the other 30 teams in the league that are also looking to improve. You should look to sign one marquee free agent, at most.
Plus, it's just flat out bad management - did we not just go through the free agent coup of the century two years ago and it's gotten us an 8-8 and a total debacle this year. Winners are built through the draft and smart free agency, not expending non-existent cap space to fill every single hole on the roster.

I was unaware that signing 7 free agents is completely outlandish. Signing free agents is something every team.does...even ones in rebuilding mode. We have wayyyy too many holes to just try and fix through the draft.
Roll just said it....how is this anything like 2011 when we signes 15 players? Were signing.less than half that number here. Branch and Smith aren't getting tagged....don't kid yourself. Seahawks have multiple other defensive players they need to resign that Branch very well may be a goner....and Cincy reportedly isn't trying that hard to keep Smith...at least they won't franchise him...He's a RT.....

It's not the number of free agents - it's the quality - I doubt that you'd be able to bring in those three guys. I just think odds of bringing in those three guys is astronomical when you consider there are 31 other teams looking to improve aside from the team resigning these players.
But regardless, moreso than anything else, it's just unrealistic because the cap space simply does not add up. Even if the Eagles could get all these guys to agree - they could not do it because they would not have the cap room.

Looked at the cap. Modified a few contracts. Added a few players to the cut list that I accidentally forgot.
End up with 7.04485 in salary cap space. Used this website:
I can understand why it seems like we wouldn't be able to sign those free agents. A key point to consider is that these players are quality free agents but aren't necessarily even the best free agents at their positions.
- In terms of Andre Smith, look at the other free agent OTs. Jake Long is reportedly going to hit the market. So Smith isn't going to be the number one OT in free agency.
- In terms of Jarius Byrd, the other top free agent safeties are Will Moore and Dashon Goldson. Byrd is near the top of that list.
- In terms of Alan Branch, the other top free agent DTs are Terrance Knighton, Glenn Dorsey, and Israel Idonije. Alan Branch is near the top of that list.
Another question that came up is why would those free agents choose a Philadelphia team that is obviously rebuilding and hiring a new coaching staff.
Looking at the Buccaneers offseason last season, we can see that quality players sign with poor teams sometimes.
- The Buccaneers finished the 2011 season at 4-12.
- The Buccaneers hired Greg Schiano. He is a head coach who came from the college ranks and had no head coaching experience in the NFL.
- They then signed Eric Wright to a 5 year, 37.5 million dollar contract. Wright was one of the top corners on the market last offseason.
- They then signed Vincent Jackson to a 5 year, 55 million dollar contract. Jackson was the top wide receiver on the market last offseason.
- They then signed Carl Nicks to a 5 year, 47.5 million dollar contract. Nicks was the top offensive lineman on the market last offseason.
There are many parallels between the Bucs offseason last year and the mock that we made.
- Both hired college coaches with no head coaching experience in the NFL.
- Both teams finished the previous season as one of the worst teams in the NFL.
- The Bucs added 9 veteran players to the roster in their offseason. In our mock, we added 7 veteran players to the roster in the offseason.
- The Bucs added 3 of the top free agents available. We added not the best but players that will be relatively sought after in free agency.

Swiss food giant, Nestlé (PINK:NSRGY), may put a smile on the faces of millions of children who love chocolate, but it also has put many children in harms way, according to a study from the Fair Labor Association.
The study found numerous child labor code violations among Nestlé's cocoa supply chain from its Vevey, Switzerland headquarters to the farms in Ivory Coast. The investigation results have prompted the company to take steps to clean up its act.
"The use of child labor in our cocoa supply goes against everything we stand for," Nestlé Executive Vice President, Operations Jose Lopez said in a statement, Bloomberg reports. "No company sourcing cocoa from Cote d'Ivoire can guarantee that it doesn't happen, but what we can promise is that tackling child labor is a top priority for our company."
The FLA said Nestlé has developed an action plan outlining three phases of improvement activities to be completed by the end of 2012, 2013 and 2016.
Phase I: By October 2012, Nestlé will develop a clear, illustrated guide encouraging compliance with the labor code. The guide will be distributed to more than 20,000 farmers participating in Nestlé's sustainability initiative.The company also will invest in various training programs to help employees identify and take steps to prevent code violations.
Phase II: By the end of its 2012/2013 harvesting season, the company will conduct a baseline survey of child labor at two cooperatives.
Phase III: If Phase II goes according to plan, by the start of 2016 Nestlé will establish a baseline measurement of compliance at all its cocoa cooperatives.
FLA President Auret van Heerden thinks that Nestlé's efforts will make a substantial difference for families who work for the company's cocoa farms.
"Our investigation of Nestlé's cocoa supply chain represents the first time a multinational chocolate producer has allowed its procurement system to be completely traced and assessed," van Heerden said in a press release. "For too long child labor in cocoa production has been everybody's problem and therefore nobody's responsibility. Nestlé is taking direct responsibility for decreasing the risks in its supply chain especially when it concerns the persistent challenges of ending child labor."
van Heerden also referred to ending the total existence child labor violations is a "long journey."
"The only way to really address a problem as systemic as child labor is to work from the bottom up, understand the reality of the farmers, workers and their families, and show the value of compliance at the ground level," he said.

Stop me if this sounds familiar . . . .
So, stop me if you've heard this one already:
In the 1950s — February 9, 1950 to be exact — Sen. Joe McCarthy of Wisconsin made a speech in Wheeling, W. Va., in which he said he had a list of 205 names of State Department employees "that were made known to the Secretary of State as being members of the Communist Party."
Fast forward 57 years and we have "Tail Gunner Steve" Ballmer with Microsoft General Counsel Brad Smith, playing McCarthy's Roy Cohn legal sidekick in this modern drama, saying that the GNU/Linux operating system violates 235 Microsoft patents. Which are they? Microsoft won't say.
McCarthy never named the names.
See a pattern here?
Sander Marechal writes an article on Linux News asking in an open letter to Novell to release the violating patents. While Microsoft may not be telling the public, they would be telling their GNU/Linux partner Novell. So Novell has the opportunity to come clean.
Anyone holding their breath? Well, don't.
Here's why: Tectonic, a South African open source news site, says in an article that Novell is distancing itself from Microsoft. From the article: "We disagree with the recent statements made by Microsoft on the topic of Linux and patents. Importantly, our agreement with Microsoft is in no way an acknowledgment that Linux infringes upon any Microsoft intellectual property."
Linus Torvalds has weighed in at Information Week, saying that Microsoft has gotten it wrong — they violate more GNU/Linux patents than the other way around. Linux News backs it up by bringing up an article by Hans Kwint they published in 2005 outlining the patents that Microsoft might have violated.
So maybe the Washington Post is right when it says that this is all a smoke screen for the failures of Vista.

Phase II of Free Weight Room Construction is underwayJune 21, 2011
Crews began pouring the concrete floor on Tuesday morning
Brevard, N.C. - Construction is now underway on the second phase of Brevard College's free weight room facility expansion. Crews began prepping the facility on June 3rd and began pouring the concrete floor on June 21st for the project that will allow the College to triple the size of its existing free weight room.
"Thanks to the wonderful support of our Tornado Club members and alumni, Brevard College will be able to enhance and expand a space that will not only strengthen our athletic program but encourage student wellness and meet the needs of our entire campus community," said Brevard College Director of Athletics Kim Pate.
Once completed, the free weight room, which is located in the College's Boshamer Gymnasium, will offer 5,500 square feet of work out space to the campus community. The open, glass wall setting will also feature the latest weight training and conditioning equipment.
Pate said she expects the pouring of concrete to wrap up by the end of June and hopes to move forward with the completion of phase two construction including installation of HVAC, floor covering, and cosmetic upgrades to the room's interior by the end of the year. The final phase of the project will consist of moving and setting up the equipment from the old weight room as well as placing new equipment in the area.
The free weight room expansion is part of the College's new Chick Martin Training Center, which is named in honor of retired coach, athletic director, teacher, mentor, advocate and community member Chick Martin. Last year, the Brevard College Athletics Department continued its fundraising efforts for the training center by launching the Chick Martin Challenge. Those efforts allowed the College to continue work on the first phase of the free weight room expansion last summer.
Ken Kolb, president of the Tornado Club, said the club will continue to pursue funding from individuals, corporations and associations to help the College and the Athletic Department complete the Chick Martin Training Center project.
"We are pleased to help muster donor support from within our community that is designed to give our Brevard College student-athletes the first-class weight room facility they have long-deserved," said Kolb.
Kolb added that several local companies and businessmen have been instrumental in helping with the project, including Denny Whitmire of Jerry T. Whitmire Grading, Tom Cathey of Vulcan Materials, Tom Shipman of BEF Excavating, as well as Bruce Metcalf.
Pate also wanted to pay special recognition to Jack & Marcia Schneider, and Abbey Owen of Cardinal Building who have so generously offered their services and expertise in leading this project from its inception as well as helping out with a number of other projects on campus including a renovation to the baseball batting cages and the construction of the electronic sign.
This is the third capital project initiative that the Tornado Club has raised funds for since it was formed in 2006. The Club also helped fund the new Brevard College electronic sign and renovation of the College's main gym, including its new bleachers.

Wheel Head
Posted 17 May 2013 - 10:06 AM
I have been trying to think of a cost effective solution. I was thinking that I could drill a 1 inch thick wood circle onto the wheel from the bottom and use this as my wheel head. I would use shellac to seal it so I could throw directly on it as well as drill in bat pins from the top to fit standard bats.
I am thinking out loud here but was wondering if anyone has had a similar issue and how it was fixed or if anyone has an idea that may be more effective.

Score it and attach your bats to that by centering and tapping down.
It gets rid of your wobbly wheel head and your bat problem. Many potters ONLY use bats this way.
Posted 17 May 2013 - 03:05 PM
Be sure to sand the edge of the would to avoid splinters.
Posted 17 May 2013 - 04:22 PM
Thanks for all of the suggestions!

It's a stretch but have you tried placing wedges under legs of wheel to level base? Then see if spindle is plumb. Then recheck wheel head?
Yes, I first checked the level from the base but it is definitely a warp in the wheel head.
Posted 17 May 2013 - 04:50 PM
when drilling metal keep adding lubricating oil. 3-in-1 works fine.
I just got my hands on a drill with a bit that would go through steel and just finished drilling the head to fit standard bats. Hopefully that should take care of the problem, otherwise, I'm going to put a birch wood top on it.
Thanks for all of the suggestions!

Bern Watts Hard Hat
- Photos
The Watts skate hard hat by Bern has something of a split personality. It just cannot decide what sort of hard hat it is. Used by top skateboarders, snowboarders and wakeboarders alike, the Watts is a favorite of professional riders as well as the rest of us office mortals. Constructed with a combination of high-end materials, the new head protection option, Brock Foam, this hard hat keeps you cool and dry - and most importantly, safe! This burly high impact shell is going to look good and is built to withstand multiple impacts - which is great because lets face it - sometimes you bail. A lot. The Watts also gives skaters a much needed brim in sunny locales and comes in handy during rainy seasons as well. No worries with the Watts on your melon. Skate hard and skate with confidence.

Video: Klipsch HD Theater SB 3 Soundbar
Tara W. has worked for Crutchfield since 2004. She writes about whole-house music and video gear, and works on Crutchfield's video team.
More from Tara W.
Heads up!Welcome to this article from the Crutchfield archives. Have fun reading it, but be aware that the information may be outdated and links may be broken.
The Klipsch SB 3's horn-loaded design infuses this sound bar/subwoofer combo with enhanced intelligibility. Klipsch's signature full, defined midrange helps to enhance the overall clarity coming from your home theater, letting you enjoy the feeling of being fully involved with your entertainment experience.
Video Transcript
Tara: We're here at the Klipsch booth with Darren talking about the Klipsch SB 3. So Darren, what can you tell us about it?
Darren: Well, the SB 3 is our first foray into the premium sound bar category. Just like everything that Klipsch does, it utilizes the horn-loaded technology so all the advantages and benefits that you get with horn-loading is something that you're gonna get in the sound bar as well. So really, the first sound bar on the market with horn-loaded technology.
The connectivity of it utilizes an RCA connection, an optical connection, as well as a side-located 3.5mm connection so whether it's mounted on the wall or even on a stand you can actually just go right up and plug your music, your phone, your iPad, whatever it may be right into the side there, so you can actually listen to your music with an easy connection.
Now it also utilizes a 10" down-firing subwoofer. Now this subwoofer is a true hi-fi subwoofer made of MDF, not plastic, so it's able to reach down to those lowest depths that you can actually feel. So if you're really wanting a sound bar that's gonna recreate something as close to a movie theater experience, the Klipsch SB 3 is where it's at.
Tara: Great. Thanks, Darren.

Police are investigating a brawl that shut down a Juicy J concert Saturday night. The rapper was scheduled to perform at Midland, Texas's Club Cabana, but never made it to the stage because a fight broke out.
According to Texas's CBS 7, many audience members began throwing beer bottles, one of which hit a sheriff's deputy. Midland County Sheriff Gary Painter says the fight left some with broken bones and broken ribs. While authorities are investigating the incident, Sheriff Painter says eyewitnesses aren't cooperating.
Meantime, Juicy J's videographer Ted Cadillac is reacting to the incident. According to Hiphopdx.com, he says a police officer was hit with a bottle before being beat up.

Is Ryan Seacrest ready to put a ring on it?
(Yahoo!) - Ryan Seacrest has been a bachelor for far too long! The "American Idol" host stopped by the set of E!'s "Chelsea Lately" Tuesday night and made a good effort to promote the new season of the singing competition, but … Chelsea had other things on her mind. Like when is he going to pop the question?!
The 38-year-old media mogul has been dating actress and former "Dancing With The Stars" pro Julianne Hough for the past two years, and while they make a very cute couple on the red carpet, we think they would make an even cuter couple walking down the aisle.
Check out this video to find out if we'll be hearing wedding bells in Ryan's near future.

Adding Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler to the judging panel and Jimmy Iovine as the in-house mentor has done more than increase "American Idol's" positivity. It's also led to a noticeable change in philosophy about what an "Idol" champion should look and sound like.
In previous seasons, "Idol" has emphasized the need to find someone who fits in with the modern pop-radio sound. For all of Simon Cowell's sound bite indicating "this is a singing competition," the vast majority of the finalists over the first nine seasons sounded an awful lot like what's already on the radio. Salability was at least as important as raw talent.
Finalists who did not have a conventional sound were usually placed in a comfortable box to let the audience know that they weren't really that unique. For example, Crystal Bowersox may have looked and sounded like someone you might see busking for spare change in the subway station, and Simon praised that about her early in the competition. But by the end she was compared to Melissa Etheridge enough times that her individuality was less of a factor. It wasn't just that she was talented, but that she was talented in a way that would sell records. Both factors were equally important.
Season 10 has gone in a different direction. Instead of a bunch of one-size-fits-most singers designed to appeal to the widest swath of the general audience, "Idol" selected a host of genre singers and non-traditional voices. And while there are attempts to gently bring them back to the realm of modern radio — Haley Reinhart is sort of like Adele! — even that doesn't work for singers like Casey Abrams' jazz-fused tracks, or James Durbin's attempts to revive the metal craze.
The judges made that attitude explicit a couple of weeks ago, noting the great thing about this season is that a non-traditional performer could wind up winning. It's a refreshing change from the cookie-cutter mentality that has seen the last three champions go from David Cook to Kris Allen to Lee DeWyze, successively weaker versions of the same style. And it's a show of faith in the public that it would support someone a little different even after the competition ends.
It's also a risk.
There's little doubt that this was a calculated decision on the part of the "Idol" decision-makers, further fueled by the early audience voting. Apart from Stefano Langone, none of the men in the semifinals were anywhere close to the past three winners, and even Langone is a stretch.
Uniqueness was the buzzword, whether it was the deep country baritone of Scotty McCreery, the gospel sounds of Jacob Lusk or the ... well, whatever Paul McDonald could be compared to. The women had their share of unique voices as well. There hasn't been anyone like Naima Adedapo before, and the lowering of the age limit brought new voices with Lauren Alaina and Thia Megia.
That might be because it's been a long time since "Idol" produced a buzzworthy champion. Carrie Underwood in season four was the last winner to go on to superstardom. Some of the subsequent winners have done better than others, but with the talent level dropping over the past couple of years, it was a natural decision for "Idol" to look in a different direction.
But there's a lot riding on that, and on this season's winner. The stakes for "Idol" are higher now because Simon is throwing the gauntlet down when "The X-Factor" debuts on Fox this gall. It not only has a higher top prize of $5 million, it also may reunite Simon with his ex-"Idol" partner and genially entertaining/unpredictable/nutty co-star Paula Abdul.
So while nobody is proclaiming that "Idol" is preparing to go to the mattresses to defend its turf, it would be a much less tense fall for all associated with the show if it has a top-selling season 10 champion to showcase.
Would Casey Abrams have been that kind of champion had he not been eliminated? Maybe, since based on pure talent and musical versatility there haven't been many better contestants to take the "Idol" stage. But it might not happen quickly, since in business terms "Idol" would be looking for him to carve out a new market among Top 40 radio fans instead of neatly fitting into an existing niche.
Durbin would be slightly easier, in part because he's enough like Adam Lambert that there's some familiarity with how he might succeed as a commercial artist. But Durbin is a lot more into metal than Lambert was, and he's another guy who may have a hard time turning his talent and popularity into an immediate hit single.
Lusk would have a similar issue based on his R&B stylings, though based on his trips to the bottom three in recent weeks, he's got a lot of ground to make up. Indeed, it's the youngest of the men who might have the most immediate sales potential, albeit in a genre that hasn't taken a man to the title in the past. McCreery is so comfortable in his country music lane that he will not leave it even after being prodded by Iovine, so it's very easy to see what kind of album he'd be releasing.
Either of the two women could likely find something to record that would sell quickly. Though Reinhart remains a longshot, she could either go the country route or release something that falls into the Adele Lite category.
Lauren Alaina would probably be the easiest of any of the remaining finalists to sell. She has been compared to Carrie Underwood and Kelly Clarkson, arguably the two most successful winners ever. Moreover, she hasn't yet been in the bottom three, a good sign considering the judges all feel she still hasn't reached her potential.
If she wins, the pressure will be on her to hit that mark sooner rather than later. Though talent may be the buzzword of season 10, translating that into stardom will be critical in helping "Idol" overcome the x-factor of a Simon Cowell challenge.

I've been testing on the 5Ghz range, currently iwlist wlan0 channel only allows (EU):
Channels 1-14 (2.4Ghz)
36-48 (5.18Ghz - 5.24Ghz)
149-165 (5.745Ghz - 5.825Ghz) - These are not allowed in EU!
It should be capable of the following (http://www.alfa.com.tw/in/front/bin/...egory=105483):
5.150-5.350 (Channels 34-64)
5.470-5.850 (Channels 100-165)
These are dependent upon country but channels 48-116, 132-140 should be available to Europe and America but are not showing up with current drivers. They have some restriction to do with dynamic frequency seleciton and tranmission power control between 52-140 but I'm not sure if thats why they aren't being picked up by drivers.
In Windows 7 it detects up to channel 64. Fails to see 100,116,136 (the highest my router will go to).

Rand Paul: Blame Big Government For Ferguson
Listen to NRA News Cam and Company on iHeartRadio
Writing for TIME, Rand Paul—who is expected to mount a campaign for the GOP presidential nomination in 2016—addressed the crisis that has erupted inFerguson, Missouri, in the wake of the shooting of unarmed teen Michael Brown. Paul writes that due to the convergence of the "militarization of law enforcement" and the "erosion of civil liberties," Americans, and particularly African-Americans—feel as though they are being "targeted" by the government.
"If I had been told to get out of the street as a teenager, there would have been a distinct possibility that I might have smarted off. But I wouldn't have expected to be shot," he writes. "Given the racial disparities in our criminal justice system, it is impossible for African-Americans not to feel like their government is particularly targeting them."
Paul warns against a police state, noting that there "should be a difference between a police response and a military response," and expressing concern that "the images and scenes we continue to see in Ferguson resemble war more than traditional police action."
Unsurprisingly, given his self-described "Libertarian-ish" limited-government leanings, Paul blames big government for the rise of militarized law enforcement.

LONG BEACH - Former Long Beach City Councilman Robb Webb on Monday endorsed the council candidacy of labor representative Al Austin.
Austin is running for the 8th District seat. Webb also represented the 8th, which includes part of Bixby Knolls and North Long Beach, along with Virginia Country Club, Los Cerritos and California Heights. He was in office from 2000 to 2004.
"I had the opportunity to work with Al Austin when I was on the City Council, and I found out he is interested in fighting for the same things I am, public safety, economic development and our neighborhoods," Webb said in a statement. "He has been actively involved in our community and Los Cerritos School for many years and has earned his place as a leader in the 8th District."
Last week, Long Beach's firefighter and police unions threw their support behind Austin.
He is running against Lillian Kawasaki, an elected director with the Water Replenishment Board of Southern California, and Gustavo Rivera, an Army veteran and full-time Long Beach City College student.
Current 8th District Councilwoman Rae Gabelich is out of office due to term limits, but could run again as a write-in candidate. She hasn't announced a decision.
The election is April 10.

your welcome.
Howdy, didn't know where else to post this other then the 'experts' thread. Wondering since I'm using PoE, and not usb would I be able to use BT5? For starters a few quick notes. It uses the 'AirOS' platform, been thinking of going to Openwrt for the flashing, but hoping I don't need to mess with all that fun stuff. I have the ethernet running to a repeater for wifi throughout the house. And on the 2nd gen I-5 so should have more then enough power to go through all the code? .. Not that much on Linux savy, but I do very well on the learning curves, and I'm not askin how to use it, even though I'm sure I'll be on the wiki nonstop this week if in fact, it is 'doable'. Lol... Thanks in advance, and thanks for the future responses.
your welcome.
Yeah, you never really asked a question there. Why do you want to install BT5 on an Ubiquiti Nanostation M2? What is it you want to achieve with this?

A TRIP to Leeds Rhinos could potentially be the last thing Wolves want after their opening week.
Having suffered at the hands of St Helens' new-look half back pairing, they now come up against arguaby the best 'one to seven' in Super League.
Rhinos now boast two of England's strongest wingers, with former Hull FC try scorer Tom Briscoe joining the formidable Ryan Hall on the edges of Brian McDermott's lethal back line.
Partnering Briscoe with fellow England centre Kallum Watkins caused havoc for their opening week opponents Hull KR, with Briscoe crossing for a debut hat-trick and Watkins adding one of his own to complete the 34-6 rout.
Having confirmed that 21-year-old winger Gene Ormsby will make his first team debut on Friday, Tony Smith is likely to charge him and Ryan Atkins with keeping Leeds' four-try pair quiet, and that will be no easy task.
Rhinos will also present Wolves with some difficulties around the ruck, especially if Smith's men allow their opponents to get the upper hand in the same way Saints did last week.
Smith highlighted the play-the-ball as an area Wolves desperately needed to improve, and that would be the case even if they weren't coming up against a side boasting Rob Burrow and new signing Paul Aiton at dummy half.
A signing from Wakefield Trinity Wildcats, Aiton played hooker for Papua New Guinea in the World Cup and further strengthens their attacking options to make Rhinos a more dangerous side then they have been for several years.
Considering they lifted the Super League trophy in 2012, that is saying something.

Since we're on topic, how are the KOA campsites on the Hatteras seashore, the ones close by Rodanthe and around that general area, cuz I'm thinking about heading up there for Spring break and a cabin is a lot better than a motel and really about the same price (if not cheaper).
Frisco Woods was very nice and might still be - rather built up these days. Haven't stayed there in about 15 years. The county used to be dry and everyone brought their own liquor and beer - you could drive through the campground and see all these bottles of booze on the picnic benches. Real chill time - honor system really worked. The Frisco NPS is also a nice setup and provides some protection from the winds bec of the scrub bush. Avon is the ideal location since it equal distant to Rodanthe and Frisco if conditions merit either (and not surfing Avon which can get quite nice).
The downside of Frisco NPS campground is that in a tent there is no good escape from the sun when its warmer out. A plus when its cool out, but when its warm you could cook an omelette on your ass at 7 am. Other than the steaming ass tent problem it is a sick campground for the money.
I personally think the KOA campgrounds blow. just a different feel altogether.
Frisco Woods Campground for sure. There are trees to escape the direct sun and to hang the drying wetsuits and baggies... Hot water showers which always helps kill the chill of an late afternoon session in March.

Sexual Harassment and the Legacy of Anita Hill: Where Are We Now
This Saturday (October 15th) I will be speaking at the conference "Sex, Power and Speaking Truth: Anita Hill 20 Years Later". I'm going to be representing our generation and speaking about our relationship with sexual harassment, exploring concepts such as how our generation feels about sexual harassment, whether or not we feel it's a relevant issue, how technological advancements play a role in sexual harassment, etc.
Now, I've thought a lot about this and formed my own opinions on this matter, which I'll share at the conference (and will probably post a video of at a later date), but I want to take this opportunity to open this topic up completely to the FBomb community. My opinion on this topic is just one tiny window into what …

Get your travel planner out for our opening tour of the New Testament and flight forty-five of the Bible from 30,000 Feet! This flight will take us on a sky-high tour over the books of Matthew, Mark and Luke. These three synoptic gospels give us our first glimpses of Jesus' life and death here on earth. We'll see the service, sermons, sacrifices, and sovereignty of our King as we witness the fulfillment of many of the Old Testament prophecies we have previously studied. The key chapters to review are Matthew 1-5 and 17, Mark, and Luke.
DESTINATION: Matthew
The Gospel of Matthew was written by Matthew, a Jewish tax collector called by Jesus to be one of His disciples. The exact date is unknown but traditionally accepted to be between 38-70 A.D. Matthew presents Jesus Christ as the true Messiah and King of the Jews. It was written in Aramaic, likely to the Jews scattered abroad who had no access to the apostles' teaching. Matthew's skill at being a record keeper made him quite capable of drawing together the facts of Jesus' life and the Old Testament references to Him. So that the Jews would become convinced of Jesus' authority as their King, he proves that Jesus was the Messiah by quoting their prophets.

Chiang, Ted. The Lifecycle of Software Objects
When zookeeper Ana Alvarado decided to refocus her career and become a software tester, she knew it would change her life…what she did not know was just how profoundly. Offered a position by start-up Blue Gamma as an "animal trainer" for their new digients ("digital entities" designed to be life-like, lovable pets for online gamers in virtual worlds), she leaps at the opportunity. Her background in animal behavior helps the company find success, creating extremely popular artificial intelligences. Their success spawns competitors in the market who use different "genetic algorithms" and training methods to evolve their own versions of the digients. Unfortunately, these competitors nudge out Blue Gamma and the company folds…but what is to become of those Blue Gamma-style digients already placed with owners, and those still homeless? The creatures are childlike, but still loving and sentient…somewhere between pets and children, but nevertheless wholly unique. Ana adopts her own digient and becomes part of a small, but vibrant and dedicated, community of digient owners fighting for the survival and the rights of their charges. When even the gaming platform for which the digients were originally designed fades into obsolesence, effectively isolating the digients in a tiny pocket universe, Ana and the other digient owners are forced to make some increasingly unpleasant and difficult moral decisions.
Despite its slender size, this novella is filled more tightly with complex abstractions, moral ambiguities, and science fictional ideas than most trilogies can contain. Chiang's mastery of the short form is evident; while keeping a firm hand on the passage of time he is nevertheless able to pack a lifetime of background, implication, and experience into a small number of pages.

Try running xconf command before you run startx command
i have installed BT3 on hdd and today i run fluxbox. and it crached. now i cannot run startx. i write startx but he load flux and i cannot do anything on fluxbox. Is it possible to completly remove fluxbox and reinstall it ? and how to do that ? i tryed but no results, they anyway load (crashed)fluxbox. on fluxbox i cant connect internet can run almost anything cant reset cant reload etc etc etc. help me fix it
Try running xconf command before you run startx command
Information is like water...
You may need to delete your xorg.conf. Running xconf creates a new one.
Information is like water...
nop didnt help
Is this a Real install or Live?
Information is like water...
real install it is on my hdd.
Someone more adavanced then myself on these forums may be able to help you but it might be just as easy to reinstall. I recommend the live install with persistent changes. Its basically the best of both worlds. Its light on the system, all your changes get saved, and if something gets messed up you will always have the option of wiping your changes file setting you back to a default installation. Search "persistent changes" and you should find the tutorial.
Information is like water...
whats happened is you have no .xinitric file. The script to start fluxbox creates one and then rms it to load fluxbox in order to have flux and kde at the same time. I dont believe fluxbox "just crashed" as its faily stable however whats done is done. I would try a few things.
1. make sure your x session is set to kde in /etc/rc.conf
2. do a xconfig like the other fellow suggested or you can do it the Xorg way and do "X -configure". That will create a new xorg.file in root and it will give you directions on how to test it and the copy it to the proper location.
Just as a sidenote fluxbox rocks!!!!

Right-wing group smears NBC producer as anti-Semite; won't produce hard evidence
Blog ››› ››› ERIC BOEHLERT
Michael Calderone at Politico has been tracking this stunning case of conservative press-bashing, which seems to break new ground with its reckless execution.
The short version is that Americans for Limited Government has sent out three press releases claiming that a producer at NBC News, Jane Stone, after receiving an ALG email alert, returned the email to a ALG staffer with the anti-Semitic note, "Bite me Jew Boy!" NBC News chief Steve Capus immediately, and adamantly, denied the claim and announced that a complete IT email analysis by NBC proved the email the producer sent to ALG never included the hateful "Bite me Jew Boy!" phrase. (Instead, it simply read "Take me off this list!")
Since late last week, ALG has refused to produce any sort of hard evidence back up its vicious smear, such as the email headers that came attached to the supposed anti-Semitic message.
And today, Calderone notes:
Communications director Carter Clews told me that ALG does not plan to release email "headers"—as NewsBusters was told Saturday—or a taped phone conversation with Stone, where she allegedly first claimed to have not sent any email to the organization. Clews mentioned the taped phone call on New Majority. Also, ALG declined my request to visit the group's Fairfax office to look at their evidence firsthand.
Calderone correctly concludes, "NBC firmly stands behind Stone, and I feel the burden of proof is now on ALG to produce something that clearly ties her to this allegation."
And so far, it's crickets from ALG.
UPDATED: In his denunciation of ALG, NBC's Capus mentioned he was "shocked" by the group's irresponsible behavior. I guess my question is, Why? I suppose Capus was shocked because NBC was the unfortunate target this time. But honestly, the right-wing is addicted to this kind of hateful, anti-press garbage, and the sooner mainstream news outlets admit that and start reporting on it, the better off we'd all be.

POINTE-CLAIRE, QC, Canada -- They are described as the grossest guys that live in your garbage. And they belong to one of the hottest-selling retail toy properties for boys. With more than 100 characters to collect and swap, over 66 million units have been sold in two years.
Now Allstar Vending
has acquired the exclusive license for The Trash Pack in bulk and flat vending. "Trash Pack continues to experience immense success since the first series launched in 2011 and we anticipate it to snowball," said Allstar vice president Sharon Shlien.
The Trash Pack was created by Australia's Moose Enterprise, a family-owned toy company also known for Mighty Beanz, Aquasand and Party Animals. The Trash Pack's collectability and low price points made them a worldwide sensation. The original toys, introduced in August 2011, are figurines that come in garbage bins. Putrid Pizza, Garbage Gull, Germ-Worm and Mucky Maggot were among the first characters, and Rankenstein and Moo Cow Disease were the first ultra-rare releases.
According to Shlien, Moose Enterprise is planning several new playsets for 2013, including Ultimate Fighting Trashies (UFT) and a line of trading cards.
For its first vending release, Allstar is shipping Trash Pack stickers. There are 12 stickers that feature sordid characters like Rotten Fish, Stinky Cheese and Mouldy Milk, among other trashies. Vendible $1 toys are in the works. Each 2" capsule will contain a trash can with a collectible inside. The multipurpose toys can be used as pencil toppers, too. Also on tap are 50¢ capsule toys and temporary tattoos. In total, Allstar is expected to release more than 80 Trash Pack collectibles.

Winn scores 24, pulls down 16 in overtime loss to Mars HillJanuary 2, 2010
Mars Hill tops Brevard 85-76 in overtime
Mars Hill, N.C. - The Lions of Mars Hill needed overtime to defeat the Tornados, led by the 24 points and 16 rebounds of the conference leading scorer, Samantha Winn. The Lions upended Brevard 85-76 led by Brittini Young's 24 points and a double double of their own in Taylor Deal with 21 points and 15 rebounds.
The loss drops Brevard to 5-5 overall and 0-2 in the South Atlantic Conference, while the victorious Lions improve to 4-8 overall and 1-0 in the conference.
The jumpstart Lions controlled the first ten minutes of the game, out scoring the Tornados 32-10. The Tornados chipped away at the lead with a 9-0 run led by the six points, two assists, two rebounds, and steal of freshman Asheley Watkins in just four minutes. Watkins would finish the game with three steals, four assists, and five rebounds.
Brevard continued the run, extending it to 18-0 before Mars Hill finally scored with 2:23 left in the half when Beth Miller converted on a foul shot. Krystal Moore helped the Lions cause by making a last second, half-court shot to make the score 38-31.
Brevard outscored the Lions 21-6 in final ten minutes of the half, led by Watkin's and Amanda Whitaker's six points.
Mars Hill maintained their lead through the second half. Brevard did not tie or lead the game until a pair of Winn free throws tied the game, 62-62 with 1:40 remaining. Mars Hill regained their lead, but a pair of shots from beyond the arc kept the Tornados battling.
First, a Holli Flippo three pointer with eight seconds remaining, then a last second Winn three pointer sent the game into overtime tied 70-70.
The Lions outscored the Tornados 17-8 in overtime making the final 85-76.
Anna Schlobohm chipped in 13 points, to be one of only two Tornados to reach double figures, and also led the team with five assists, and a blocked shot. Mars Hill boasted four players in double figures, as Krystal Moore and Katie Buckner joined Young and deal with 13 and 10 points respectively.
The Tornados will return to action on Wednesday, January, 6 when Lenoir-Rhyne travels to Brevard for a 6:00 p.m. game.

Su Man Jung -
Green River has International Reputation
for Intensive English Program
Students at Green River Community
College know that the IESL program
prepares them very well for their
college studies.
Students from around
the world choose the Intensive English
as a Second Language (IESL) program
at Green River College in
Auburn, Washington, which is located
just outside of Seattle.
A major reason students in the
program do so well is because of the
professionalism of the instructors in
the program. All IESL faculty have graduate
degrees, speak at least one language
in addition to English, and have worked,
studied and traveled extensively around
the world. Furthermore, faculty members
are culturally aware and sensitive.
Students at Green River Community
College know that the IESL program prepares
them very well for their college studies.
It is an integrated English program
that specializes in teaching students
the academic skills that will help them
to be more successful in their college
According to college officials, students
who have attended the IESL program at
Green River are successful because they
have a demonstrated record of passing
their classes more successfully than
students who did not attend the IESL.
Another factor contributing to the
success of IESL students is how the
program's curriculum is organized. Since
almost 90 percent of students continue
their college education in English,
it makes sense that the IESL program
is academically focused. Right from
the beginning, students are exposed
to American students, academic classrooms,
and the teachers they will meet in the
future when they finish the IESL program.
Green River College students
transfer to outstanding universities
across America. By finishing the first
two years of a four year degree at GRCC,
students save a significant amount of
tuition. If getting a college education
is the ultimate goal for an international
student, then starting with the IESL
program at Green River is a step in
the right direction.
