With the mission, vision and values all reviewed and validated by WCTC staff and community members, four new strategic goals focused on the core of the College's mission, while being acutely aware of the future, are in place for the next three years.
A cross-functional team of administration, faculty, support staff, students and board members worked through goal-aligned task forces to define the goals, objectives and metrics. In addition, a communication task force held numerous College Conversations, Board Presentations and Information Sessions to make sure that all feedback was received and discussed. To further solidify this plan, a staff, student, employer and community survey was conducted and analyzed to clarify and refine the strategic goals.
Alignment and accountability are the theme of WCTC's 2014-17 Strategic Plan as all units align division and department plans to the Strategic Plan. Taking it one step further, each employee is being asked to reflect on his/her specific role in the strategic plan and how it aligns with their personal and professional goal setting and achievement.
Now that the plan has been determined, a College team consisting of the President's Executive Cabinet and the Quality Advisory Team will take responsibility for its deployment, along with regular monitoring of performance metrics, through 2017 when the college will embark on the process once again.

U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson visited WCTC on April 14 to meet with students, tour the College and hold a town hall meeting for the community. The event was held in conjunction with the Pewaukee Chamber of Commerce. Nearly 100 people attended Sen. Johnson's town hall meeting and presentation, "A Businessman Goes to Washington."
The Waukesha County Fire Chiefs Association held an "Elected Officials" Fire and EMS Experience Day on April 12 at WCTC. Courtney Carlson, WCTC Fire and EMS coordinator, helped plan the event.
The Fire Chief's Association demonstrated a simulated EMS call, fire attack, use of radio communications and operations of fire vehicles. The officials were given the opportunity to participate in the demonstrations in the roles of the responders.

Exhausting Eastern Mediterranean itinerary: Celebrity Equinox Cruise Review by RockinSonoma
Overall Member Rating
Exhausting Eastern Mediterranean itinerary
Destination: Europe - Eastern Mediterranean
Embarkation: Other
Aquaspa class offers nice accommodations (the showers are fantastic), better dining, and closer proximity to the pool and spa decks. The other advertised in-room amenities were just marketing hype: the "floral arrangements" were a single bud in a tiny vase, the afternoon canapes were marginal when they weren't irrelevant because of being ashore, the aroma stuff was nonexistent as was the "pillow menu" (though I have no doubt you can get as many pillows as you want with a quick phone call or word with the cabin stewarts).
We loved the ports-of-call and the ship was spectacular. However, leaving More Santorini before 10PM is immoral (especially when the ship simply holds station most of the night in front of the next port-of-call at Mykonos). Giving Celebrity the benefit of the doubt, I suspect that huge cruise ships in port beyond closing time for the souvenir shops would screw up the evening ambiance on the Greek islands. If we consider a repeat of the Eastern Med cruise, we'll give careful consideration to the smaller cruise lines with ships that can stay in port later or, alternately, the bare bones cruises that have you forfeit comfy cabins, good food and on-board entertainment for rock bottom prices and much longer port stays. It just might be better to spend the money saved on restaurants and entertainment in the ports and just use the ships for clothing storage and a place to sleep. Less

Cabin review: AQ1529
1529 is a fantastic cabin ideally located on the Penthouse deck. It's quiet. There are no deck noises from above. It's forward of the waist cabins with their overhanging decks. It's close to spa services. It's close to the forward elevators without being on top of them. It's close to stairs that take you directly up to the Aquaspa Cafe. Perfect location unless being close to the big dining venues is more important to you. Getting from 1529 to any dining other than the Aquaspa Cafe requires walking most of the length of the ship. That really isn't much unless your poor planning during the evening has you running to and fro. I highly recommend using Cruise Critic to investigate your cabin assignment during the booking process. The default cabin selections were the less desirable but probably adequate cabins. Investigating our cabin options on CC revealed desirable-looking cabins that had some issues (cabins adjacent to crew passageways or below the weight room section of the spa) that couldn't be ferreted out looking at the Celebrity literature.

I'd shop around at all the BMW dealers in you area because $1,800 seems really high. I paid $1,100 for my hitch and installation at my local dealer. There is a lot more to the BMW hitch than the hitch itself. There is a bunch of reprogramming done to the vehicle. It will automatically disable the rear backup sensors when you connect a trailer, it add's a zoom on hitch function to the backup camera (which makes backing and hooking up the trailer super easy), and it alters the stability control behavior to accommodate for towing when you connect a trailer (which is a safety issue). Plus it is a hidden design so you don't really see the hitch when you aren't using it.

" Brand: Elle Macpherson / Type: Gift Set "
This gift set is something I bought as a treat for myself and boy did this feel like a treat, it was fabulous! The box set was made up of a mixture of different showerl gels, body scrubs and body butter. The set is broken up into three ranges: bare, self and glow. My favourite range is the glow range. The glow and shimmer scrub left my body feeling refreshed and clean and with a wonderful shimmer. The body butter from this range complemented the scrub and left me feeling fabulous and it is a wonderful finishing touch to make you feel complete and attractive if you use it before a night out. The body butters are rich, with fabulous scents that give an impression of sophistication and luxury. The only criticism I have is when I have been to buy this product on an individual basis, I have been deterred because I feel that they are too expensive for what they are; and I feel that you are paying for the name of "Elle MacPherson," not actually for the quality of the product.
I'm a big fan of the Elle Macpherson skin care range and have all the full size products in the range - I love nothing more than a nice relaxing bath with the bath soak or a shower with the shower creme. I also like going away and when you have a posh luxury hotel bathroom to enjoy, it would be a shame not to use your fave products really, wouldn't it? So I was really pleased to discover this mini collection in Boots a few months ago which is basically a treasure trove of miniature Elle products which mean you don't need a separate suitcase for your bath stuff when going away!
For the bath there is bath milk and bath soak, for the shower there is body wash, body scrub and shower creme and then there is hand cream, firming lotion and body creme to ensure you're 100% gorgeous-smelling after your bathing!
All the little products look almost identical so you do have to read the label to ensure you aren't using hand cream in your bath but that's the only negative I have on these - I love them and they're so cute!
As well as being great for taking away with you, the hand cream is just the right size for keeping in your handbag and the set could be split up to make up little gift sets for family or friends and the miniatures are also good if you want to try a particular product before committing to the full-sized version.
Love them, love them, love them!!!
Contains everything you need to pamper yourself: Body Wash, Hand Cream, Body Scrub, Shower CrÌme, Firming Lotion, Bath Milk, Body CrÌme and Bath Soak /

Cusack plays Nicholas Easter, a jury member for a high-profile trial in which a young attorney has been slain by a disgruntled ex-employee. The widow is suing the gun manufacturer. Adapted from the John Grisham story.
Rankin Fitch, played by Gene Hackman, is in charge of jury selection. He uses video surveillance, wire-taps and vintage stalking to be sure to receive an empathetic panel. Fitch has to duke it out with the plaintiff's attorney, Wendell Rohr, who is played by Dustin Hoffman.
This movie is a showcase of the talents of Hackman, Hoffman and Cusack. Cusack's Easter character has been described as 'carrying the show with spontaneous finesse, oozing casual charm and clever intelligence.' The three will lie, cheat and steal (figuratively) to score the outcome of the trial that is most desirable to their raison d'etre.

One thing that has become abundantly clear is that the players with four or five years of service made a huge difference in the crop that has emerged into free agency. Nobody has signed an offer sheet with another team, much less one with a poison pill included. Maybe as draft boards start getting set around the league, the value of a second- or third-round pick will start a flurry of activity, but, to date, the biggest news has been former stars cut or traded.
You think the Vikings have it bad? Sure, they've only signed a kicker from the outside and have lost Artis Hicks and Chester Taylor, but a lot of teams have been inactive in the first week of free agency. Consider the following:
Arizona — The last two years, the Cardinals have lost to the team that won the Super Bowl. They've been very good. But since the end of their season, Kurt Warner retired, Anquan Boldin was traded, Karlos Dansby signed away and Antrel Rolle was released. The only new player thusfar is safety Kerry Rhodes, who the Cards had to give up a fourth- and seventh-round draft pick to acquire. Few teams have it worse than that.
Buffalo — For a team converting to a 3-4 defense, the only thing they've done to date is re-sign a backup safety and sign journeyman offensive tackle Cornell Green (who has played for Atlanta, the Jets, Miami, Tampa Bay twice, Denver and Oakland – the true definition of a journeyman). He is supposed to help replace Brad Butler, who retired, and Jon Scott, who signed on with Pittsburgh. With Terrell Owens and Josh Reed both gone, changes needed on defense and questions at QB, who would want to be a Bills fan right now?
Carolina — Where's my gun? In the last three weeks, the Panthers have cut Jake Delhomme, Maake Kemoeatu, Damione Lewis, Na'il Diggs and Brad Hoover and lost the prize of the free agent Class of 2010 – Julius Peppers – to the Bears. The Panthers have signed one player – wide receiver/special teamer Wallace Wright. Carolina fans better be buying into this youth movement thing, because Matt Moore as the face of the franchise is best used in dim lighting.
Dallas — Wasn't Jerry Jones supposed to be the guy everyone feared would be the drunken spender of free agency? With a billion-dollar stadium and a team exposed by the Vikings as still being a sniff away from being a legitimate Super Bowl contender, the Cowboys have done nothing in the first week. They've signed nobody. Nobody has signed any of their significant free agents. What's the holdup? It's MUCH too quiet in Dallas. The eyes of everyone outside of Texas are upon you. If any collusion questions are raised, Jerry better start tossing around some cash.
Green Bay — This one may be up to debate as to whether it has been good or bad. The Packers successfully re-signed aging, injured OT Chad Clifton, franchised Ryan Pickett to make sure he didn't get away and slapped safety Nick Collins with a tender that he was willing to sign – only because he wants to get a longer-term deal done or split. Those have been the only signings – one by force, one by authority and one to delay paying out another big contract. The team lost Aaron Kampman. A dominating defensive end at times, he struggled as a 3-4 outside linebacker and took away much of what he did best as a down lineman. But go back a year ago before the failed experiment. Kampman may have been their only untouchable player other than Aaron Rodgers and he's gone south to Jacksonville.
Houston — The Texans have made just one low-rent signing in guard Wade Smith and re-upped Kevin Walter. But the loss of CB Dunta Robinson to Atlanta is a punch to gut of Texans fans, who have finally seen their team break .500 for the first time in franchise history, only to lose their only shutdown corner without having a replacement ready to go.
Indianapolis — The Colts pay more money to fewer players than any team in the league. If someone gets a contract, someone else has to go (ask Edgerrin James or Marvin Harrison). The team re-signed Gary Brackett to continue their trend of only paying big money to their home-grown talent. But the team has parted ways with DE Raheem Brock, OL Ryan Lilja, CBs Marlin Jackson and Tim Jennings and QB Jim Sorgi. It's the bad part of being as consistently good as the Colts have been. No team has more first- and second-year players on its roster annually than the Colts. I'm no Sorgi fan, but what exactly did Curtis Painter show that makes anyone think he could do a better job than Sorgi when healthy?
Miami — Things are shaking up in So-Flo. The Dolphins made one of the biggest splashes in free agency by signing Karlos Dansby, but also shed salary on previous big-name signings like Joey Porter and Gibril Wilson. Dansby might be a step up from Porter, who turned into too much of a distraction, but linebacker remains a weakness with the release of ILB Akin Ayodele. One of their re-signings was the most interesting. The team brought back nose tackle Jason Ferguson, despite knowing he will miss the first eight games of 2010 with a suspension.
New Orleans — The Saints have signed nobody, have cut Charles Grant to avoid a roster bonus, lost fan favorite Scott Fujita to free agency (leaving lesser-known and much lesser loved Scott Shanle as the top OLB dog) and have offended Darren Sharper with their lack of interest. Fortunately, their fans are too hung over to be concerned yet.
New York Jets —The Jets went a long way in 2009, thanks in no small part to the play of the secondary. Darrelle Revis has emerged as the game's top cornerback, Lito Sheppard at the other corner and Kerry Rhodes in the safety spot. Two of those three are gone. Sheppard was going to be due an absurd $10 million roster bonus and was forcibly removed from New Jersey. He was replaced by Antonio Cromartie, whom the Jets gave up a 2011 draft pick to obtain – a third-rounder if he tanks or gets injured, a second-rounder if he's a full-time starter. On offense, Thomas Jones was released for roster bonus reasons as well. The Jets rolled the dice on the troubled Cromartie, but have already lost quite a bit in the process.
Oakland — What's a bad news story without the Raiders. Think things can't worse? Their major signings to date are their kicker, punter and long snapper. They've cut Javon Walker, Justin Fargas and Greg Ellis, had to franchise Richard Seymour to keep him from getting away and lost part-time starting offensive tackle (and Superjourneyman) Cornell Green in free agency. To date, they've signed nobody from outside the organization. What? Tom Cable isn't a recruiting magnet?
Philadelphia — There was an uproar last year when the Eagles cut loose Brian Dawkins, but the hits just keep on coming to name veterans in Philly. Brian Westbrook was shown the door, as was linebacker Will Witherspoon. Veteran wide receiver Reggie Brown was traded and their only signing has been Colts injury-riddled cornerback Marlin Jackson. The good news is that nobody takes bad news with their sports teams with more class and quiet dignity than fans in Philly. Just ask Chilly.
San Diego — The Chargers have been one of the best teams in the league over the last few years, but have taken more than their share of hits. LaDainian Tomlinson and Michael Bennett were cut, leaving their running back cupboard behind Darren Sproles pretty bare. They traded Cromartie out of their defensive backfield for a draft pick they won't get until 2011 and lost nose tackle Jamal Williams and wide receiver Kassim Osgood in the first week of free agency. On the plus side, they did re-sign plodding defensive end Alphonso Boone, which should help make up for some of those critical losses. Surf's up, dude. Nothing going on at the Chargers complex.
San Francisco — One would think with the Cardinals showing weakness off a handful of big losses since the end of the season, the 49ers would jump. To date, they've made one signing – an absurdly overpriced deal to QB David Carr, who got a $6.5 million deal over two years with the knowledge he will be the backup. Not bad change if you can get it, but word out of Frisco was that two season tickets sold within hours of the signing – Carr's family no doubt.
Seattle — The Seahawks are in the same boat as the Niners, being given a chance to make a move and be aggressive in free agency. To date, they have signed nobody, seen left tackle and future Hall of Famer Walter Jones retire and lost Nate Burleson in free agency.
Tampa Bay — The Bucs have almost completely dismantled every veteran from the time Raheem Morris showed up until now and they have very little to show for it. So much so that other veterans might be hesitant to buy in. The Bucs made a low-level trade to acquire Reggie Brown from the Eagles, but lost Antonio Bryant in the process. They also let safety Will Allen go. That's it. How are they expected to show dramatic improvement when there's more talent going out the door than coming in?
Do the math? As bad as things have been for Vikings fans since free agency opened a week ago, you can make the argument that half the league has fans as frustrated or more so than those in Minnesota.
Both of Kevin Williams and Pat Williams completed their testimony Wednesday. The agents for both players will take the stand Thursday, most likely to be asked if they leaked the information about the positive tests by NFL attorneys. Childress is scheduled to testify Friday morning.

Cindy Kok was going to close out 2012 more prepared to deliver a baby than she was four years ago when her last child was born.
But the thing is, little Bailey Kok wasn't as prepared to enter the world as his parents Keith and Cindy might have hoped.
You see, four years ago Cindy Kok never made it to the hospital when she went into labor with daughter Isabella. She gave birth to the baby girl in the cab of the pickup with her three children in the back seat.
But there was no such drama in 2012, at Fairview Northland Medical Center in Princeton.
"My doctor had us come in at 7 a.m. on New Year's Eve because the last one came in the truck on my driveway," Kok said.
Soon afterwards, the doctor induced labor.
Bailey, however, showed early on that he would be nothing like Cindy Kok's other children.
It didn't matter that the medical team had induced labor. There was going to be none of that "quick labor" stuff on New Year's Eve.
"This one was hanging on, even though they thought it would come quick," Kok said.
As a matter of fact, Bailey wasn't born until 12:56 a.m. on New Year's Day – about 18 hours after Cindy and Keith first arrived at the Princeton hospital.
At 8 pounds, 14 ounces, Bailey was the first baby born in Princeton in 2013, and the earliest arrival of a New Year's baby in Princeton in a number of years, said Jennifer Cottew, public relations manager for the hospital.
Bailey's four siblings – Taylor, Kaytelynn, Alayna and Isabella – were at home and ready to ring in the new year with a new baby brother.
"They were at home with a close family friend. They were anxiously waiting and were calling every hour," Kok said.
The children were still awake shortly before 1 a.m. when Bailey was born.
"They were up waiting. When the call came that Bailey had been born, they were up watching movies," she said.
After delivering Bailey so early on January 1, she was tired of the hospital routine by early evening.
"I only stayed until 7 p.m.," Kok said.
"I was so motivated. I just wanted to get moving. I sat in that bed so long I just couldn't take it anymore," she said.
New father Keith picked out Bailey's name, Cindy Kok said.
"He has always liked the name since he was younger," she said.
Bailey has been home for a week now and his siblings can't get enough of having a new baby in the house.
"We're spoiled to have so many good helpers," Kok said.
"We've had to set a timer because they all want to hold the baby," she said.

How to add Watermark to SolidWorks Drawing (with linked value)
How to add a Watermark to SolidWorks Drawings
By Matthew Lorono
For whatever reason, watermarks are sometimes necessary, even on drawings. Since SolidWorks has no watermark feature, and does not allow the user to change the order of certain drawing entities, a workaround is necessary. Here the most effective and powerful method useful for Drawing Templates and Sheet Formats.
1. Open the drawing.
2. Create a drawing layer by choosing the layer icon.
3. Change the layer name and description to something identifiable.Then click on the color block in the Color column and choose a very light color.Select OK.
4. Goto pulldown menu File and select Properties.
5. Add the property Watermark.As a place holder, give this property the value of "PRELIMINARY" or something similar.
6. Edit Sheet Format.
7. Use Annotation Note to create and place the entity that will become the watermark.
8. Edit the properties of that Note to adjust its font, angle, size, etc as desired.Then, link the Note to the custom property Watermark, as shown in the figure.Select OK.
8. Change the layer of the Note to the newly created layer.
**UPDATE: New functionality in SolidWorks 2013 makes steps 9 and 9.5 no longer necessary, please see this article for details: Sometimes it's the little new things – Watermarking **
9. Right Mouse Button click on the Note and select Make Block and accept.
9.5. Due to some funky behavior that I've discovered by SolidWorks when loading a watermarked template into an existing drawing, I'm adding this one step: Once you make the block, change the layer of the block to the same layer you set for your Note.
10. Save the Sheet Format (under pulldown menu File and select Save Sheet Format).
11. Edit Sheet.The Note will now appear underneath all other objects on the Drawing Sheet.
12. Save this document as a Drawing Template (under pulldown menu File and select "Save As", then change Save as type to "Drawing Templates").This creates both the Drawing Template and Sheet Format with an embedded watermark.To change the text of the watermark in any drawings that use the Drawing Template, simply go back to Files>Properties, and edit its text value.To remove the watermark, simply replace the current value with a space.These instructions are geared towards SolidWorks 2007 or earlier. SolidWorks 2008 or later instructions will be similar, though how to access some of the functions may have changed.
Did you enjoy this post? Why not leave a comment below and continue the conversation, or subscribe to my feed and get articles like this delivered automatically to your feed reader.
For some reason, images are placed at the forefront of everything on a SolidWorks drawing. I've always thought this was weird. It has annoyed me on more than one occasion.
However, if you are using SolidWorks 2008, there may be a solution for you. As long as you do not wish to move it around all the time, you can edit your Drawing Sheet paper image itself to include your graphic watermark.
I am converting over from AIV, and am finally seeing the benefits. Seeing this watermark simply being lined to a custom property is giving me hope. Now, can someone point me to an example of creating a pulldown field for the same type of linked property for the watermark? …and can I simply call on another property in one of those properties?
UPDATE for SolidWorks 2013
SolidWorks 2013 now has the ability to set any annotation note on the sheet format to appear underneath all drawing elements to act as a watermark. The method mentioned above is no longer necessary to achieve the desired results. Please see SolidWorks 2013 What's New – Display Note Behind Sheet.

Ortiz collects two hits in PawSox rehab
Boston slugger goes 2-for-3 with RBI, run scored in 5-4 win
By Sam Dykstra / Special to MLB.com | April 11, 2013 10:17 PM ET
On a night when Triple-A Pawtucket received its Governors' Cup rings, a rehab assignment by David Ortiz stole the spotlight. But Jose Iglesias did his best to take it right back.
Ortiz, who is rehabbing a heel/Achilles injury that kept him off the Opening Day roster, went 2-for-3 with an RBI and a run scored in his first game with the PawSox on Thursday. Iglesias -- Boston's No. 6 prospect -- went 1-for-4, but his only hit of the night was a two-run homer, his first of the season. Pawtucket went on to edge Rochester, 5-4.
Batting third in the PawSox order, the designated hitter struck out swinging on five pitches against Twins' No. 4 prospect Kyle Gibson in his first at-bat. He didn't waste any time in the third and singled on the first pitch he saw from the right-hander. Ortiz punched another base hit through the shift on the right side of the infield for his first RBI in the fifth.
Although he was able to some damage with his bat, the focus was partly on the baserunning. And the early returns in that department were favorable.
"He looked good," said Pawtucket manager Gary DiSarcina. "He was able to get his bat up to speed, and he wasn't favoring his heel at all. Plus he got to run the bases twice and didn't seem to have any issues there."
Ortiz ran twice without issue on 3-2 counts after his first single and raced from first to third on Mark Hamilton's double in the fifth. He came home on a weak single by Drew Sutton to left in the next at-bat. By his own choosing, Ortiz, who also spent time in Florida at extended spring training, decided to end his night after those three at-bats.
"It was getting cold out there and I was getting a little sore, but it was a good sore," Ortiz told MLB.com. "I ran a lot today, and because I'm going to play a lot of games here, I didn't want to take any chances. Now I'll get ready for tomorrow."
Iglesias' home run in the third was his first at any level this season in his first game with Pawtucket. The Cuba native had hit only three home runs between the Major and Minor Leagues since joining professional baseball in 2010. He owned a .266/.318/.306 slash line in 88 games for Pawtucket last season.
But Iglesias, who was 9-for-20 with two doubles in six games for Boston before being sent back to Pawtucket, had shown flashes of increased power in Spring Training, where he had reportedly packed on pounds of muscle and even homered in his first Grapefruit League at-bat.
"After seeing his at-bats tonight and in the spring, it definitely looked like he was progressing both with his strength and his bat speed," said DiSarcina, who is in his first season managing the PawSox and Iglesias. "He spent his time up there doing great things, and he's trying to show everyone that he's not just a slap hitter. He's looked good and had a great attitude. Hopefully, we don't have him too long."
The shortstop prospect returned to the International League for Thursday's contest when Stephen Drew (concussion) returned to Boston roster following his stint on the disabled list. Iglesias' new skipper said he didn't show any signs of being disgruntled about the move.
"I first saw him when I came in at 2 p.m. and he had a huge smile on his face and looked ready to go," DiSarcina said. "You can tell he loves the game of baseball and just has this infectious attitude in the clubhouse. Look, he knows Stephen Drew is the starting shortstop. But he's not pouting, he's not being a cancer. He's continued doing what he's doing. Everything I got on him was outstanding, and it's just a matter of time before he's back."
Gibson took his first loss of the season for the Red Wings after giving up five runs on eight hits in 4 1/3 innings.

Amy Winehouse doesn't really have emphysema (Yay?)
Okay, remember when Amy Winehouse's dad Mitch said she has emphysema and was going to die? Well, he might have embellished things a bit. Turns out Amy has "low level signs" of the disease. But it's technically not emphysema and the damage is reversible – if she quits smoking. So, perhaps Mitch was getting a preemptive jump on when she'll have it. My money's on July. Anyway, here's what he told BBC Radio:
"Amy really hasn't got emphysema, there's traces of emphysema. Obviously, if she doesn't quit smoking, it's going to get worse, like everyone else … with patience her lungs will recover completely."
So essentially, Amy has the same predisposition to emphysema as any other smoker. Real smooth, Mitch. Way to cry wolf on that one. Now nobody's going to believe you when Amy gets so freaking high next week, she travels through a wormhole to become the queen of Reverse Earth and collapses the entire space/time continuum. Oh, that's great, Mitch. Just great. Call me old-fashioned, but I'm sort of attached to, oh I dunno, EXISTING. Goddammit, I knew that beehive was no good. I could tell by the way it's always looking at me no matter where I'm standing…

Have RV Questions? Ask an RV Mechanic Online.
Hi There!!
Thanks for Choosing Just Answer..
I can try and help you but I can say finding a print this old is very difficult and you might need to contact fleetwood to see if they have them going back that far.
I can try and give you an idea of what the problem could be.
SO when you are running on Battery power only, do you have any DC voltage inside the trailer?
Thanks, Robert
All the lights are 12 dc, one light works so yes there is some DC voltage at least to that one light. The AC/DC converter changes the 120VAC to 12DC to run everything. I can get 12 DC to everything when the 120 VAC supplies the Converter. I do not know the mechanism or logic that switches it when you just go staight to 12 VDC. Maybe the Battery floats on the Converter 12 VDC output and then back feeds the 12 system when the converter turns off but that is a guess by me. I have a degree in mechanical engineering but don't hold that against me. I have a lot of experience with AC power distribution but that doesn't help me with this system.
To me is sounds like the converter could be at fault as it is not switching back to the source for battery power, many times the switching is done inside the converter, if you can get me the make and model number I can look into that a little more for you. I would also look for an auto breaker and make sure it is not all corroded and the voltage is the same on each side, many times they will stick this on the positive battery cable near the battery but I have found them inside before where the cable comes in. You are correct, the power converter makes the voltage when it has AC voltage it should also be charging the battery, so I would see if the voltage is going up when you plug in. If you can get me the model and make of the converter I should be able to get you some type of wiring diagram..... Robert
Thank You!!! Please hit ACCEPT for my efforts, Positive feedback and BONUS welcomed!
Why is there power to just one light while on 12 vdc power and to all of them when on 120vac. This has changed from the first time I turned it on when all the lights came on while on 12 VDC. If converter is not switching back how come one 12 vdc light works?
I would make sure you do not have a smaller wire on the battery, that could be the source of the 12 volts. It could also be a connection issue and I would find the 12 volt fuse board inside and see when you are unplugged if you have 12 volts DC going to the fuse board. In theory whatever light is coming on it should be fused or protected. So I would go to the source and see if that entire fuse block is being powered, if not it is getting power from another source.IF you can get me the model of the converter I should be able to help more...
I will get Converter model next weekend when I go back to the site.
That sounds good, just reply when you have that information and we can keep going on this. I do check daily and will respond. IF I happen to find out before then I will contact you...

TOKYO - Five workers have died and two more are missing after a bridge collapsed during construction work on a remote rocky atoll, the Japanese coastguard says.
The Okinotori atoll, also known as Douglas Reef, lies 1700 kilometres south of Tokyo and is the southernmost point of Japan's territory.
It is disputed by China, which says the islands are just a collection of rocks and should not be included in Japan's 200-nautical-mile exclusive economic zone.
The workers were reinforcing the islands' shore protection when the bridge fell down in the early hours of Saturday, public broadcaster NHK reported on Sunday.
A coastguard official said 16 workers had been at the site and nine were confirmed safe, adding no further details of how the accident occurred were immediately available.
"The coastguard has dispatched two escort ships and two jets for the rescue operation," he said.
The atoll covers an area of about 11 square kilometres and has been extensively eroded by waves.
Reinforced by concrete, at high tide only the tops of two rocks remain above the surface.

AGL Energy's longstanding CFO, Stephen Mikkelsen, will take over as head of retail energy in January, replacing present incumbent Ken Hodgson, who is retiring. He is one of the main internal candidates to succeed present managing director, Michael Fraser.
In his first operational role, Mikkelsen will become group general manager retail energy, the company's second largest division.
Mikkelsen told CFO he had been keen on moving into a non-finance role for some time to "round myself out as an executive" as he had aspirations to be a CEO.
Mikkelsen has been CFO of AGL since 2006 and was previously CFO of Snowy Hydro and Contact Energy in New Zealand.
"I have been the CFO for six years here, five years as CFO of Snowy Hydro, I was CFO at Contact for two years," he says. "You run the risk of getting pidgeonholed as a finance guy and this is an opportunity to broaden my experience [and] this will be fantastic experience for me."
Despite many years working with divisional heads, he says actually being responsible for a business with several thousand staff as opposed to 80 in finance is going to have its challenges.
"It is a fundamentally different type of role," he says. "To communicate with 80 people, I can do it one-on-one and it is mainly qualified accountants. Leadership will be a big challenge – including setting the culture without being able to set it one on one."
The retail business is responsible for AGL's 3.5 million retail customers across the country, including sales and marketing, call centres in Melbourne, Canberra and Adelaide as well as back office functions like billing based in Manilla.
Mikkelsen will be at the forefront of AGL's argument against moves by Queensland and South Australia to separately introduce a more market based approach to setting what retail customers can be charged for electricity bills.
AGL said on Tuesday much of the increase this was targeting was due to big hikes in capital expenditure that mainly government-owned electricity distributors had been allowed to make but had the effect of making generation investment unviable.
"[The Queensland and South Australian] decisions have really wound back 15 years of reform [of the energy market]," says Mikkelsen. "They have regulated down the cost of energy to an unsustainable level. The price they have set it at means the investment in new generation will dry up."
On November 14, Brett Redman, the head of group strategy and finance, will become CFO.
A spokesman said AGL didn't conduct an external search. Both appointments resulted from internal succession plans.

text: Never knew there was a thread for MA...I guess I should have searched. In any event, I was thinking about this while on the treadmill today. This applies for those who are using MA for conditioning and hoping to get into an SOF pipeline that requires a certain run time to be maintained and improved upon. MA does not incorporate much running in their program. A 45-60 min sustained run at a "moderate pace" (I'm sure most guys on here have a different opinion of moderate than I do ) every 10 days or so is about all they will incorporate. You will need to supplement the brutal workouts with your own running. Mine has suffered greatly. I was dying at an 8:30-9:00 pace today. Just my $.02, YMMV.

Karina Smirnoff Brad Penny Wedding
October 29, 2011 by staff
Karina Smirnoff Brad Penny Wedding, Dancing with the Stars Pro Karina Smirnoff is not dancing down the aisle in the short term! Smirnoff, 33, and her boyfriend, star of the Detroit Tigers Brad Penny, have pushed back their wedding.
"The wedding has been postponed," according to one source. "They are still together, but have conflicting schedules."
Smirnoff and Penny have been involved for nearly a year after going public soon after she and Maksim Chmerkovskiy split. In fact, Smirnoff also committed to DWTS pro Maskim and postponed the wedding due to the tight schedule before finally separating. Hmm …. perhaps the one-year itch?
Penny, who met through mutual friend Smirnoff UFC fighter Chuck Liddell, he knelt and proposed to Smirnoff in Las Vegas – and shortly after Smirnoff spoke enthusiastically about the wedding planning. "I want a destination wedding in the world can go to Cabo. We are planning in January, the seventh," Smirnoff said last November.
It is not known if the wedding is now, however, one source reports that Smirnoff and Penny "want to spend more time with each other, especially when planning your wedding."
"I think a wedding is a celebration of a future together," Smirnoff told Us magazine. "No matter how it's going to be. Whatever you choose is going to be big."
Smirnoff is still wearing her engagement ring because it was recently discovered in Beauty Joico for an event of healing and dressed in her 95.000, 4.5 princess cut diamond cursor Dazzler.
Smirnoff is currently competing (and very good!) With JR Martinez in the dance competition this season with the Stars.

Publisher's Description+
DiskWarrior resolves existing disk damage by rebuilding your disk directory using data recovered from the original directory, thereby recovering files and folders that you thought were lost. The directories DiskWarrior creates are also optimized for maximum directory performance.
DiskWarrior is not a disk repair program in the conventional sense. It does not attempt to solve all of the possible problems that can occur with a disk. It specializes in eliminating directory errors - the most common problems Mac OS users have with their disks.
DiskWarrior rebuilds your disk directories making them error-free, eliminating any problems the errors would have caused, and recovering lost files.
It fixes any problem with master directory blocks and alternate master directory blocks (HFS), volume headers and alternate volume headers (HFS Plus), volume bitmaps, catalog trees, and extents trees.
This approach has a significant advantage that the others overlook. Other products attempt to repair your directory one step at a time, ignoring the big picture of what is truly wrong with your directory, and risking file information that could be saved. Too often, they will incorrectly begin to "repair" your directory, and then give up when they realize that they have modified the directory to an irreparable state. At Alsoft, we know that the most important thing when you are attempting to repair your disks is getting your data back. That's why the first thing DiskWarrior checks is your directory data, and that's what it uses to create a replacement directory. DiskWarrior continues its rebuild operations unless no directory data can be found.
Directory damage isn't the only threat to your data. A physical hardware malfunction can cause intermittent loss of access to any data on the drive. If the malfunction is serious enough, the only way to retrieve the data on the drive is through an expensive data recovery service. DiskWarrior can be configured to automatically check drives for possible drive malfunction, giving you the chance to back up your data before a drive completely fails. The hardware monitoring can also be run manually if you suspect a drive malfunction.
Alsoft has been making disk utilities for the Mac over 25 years. Our disk optimization utilities have always chosen the safety and security of your data over anything else, and have been able to detect and report directory errors no other program can (the others obviously couldn't fix the problems they couldn't even find). That knowledge has been put into DiskWarrior to give you the only tool that can eliminate all directory problems and recover files and folders! And, as an added bonus, the directory DiskWarrior creates is optimized for maximum speed when accessing your files!
What's new in this version:
- 64-Bit Today's large disks can have large directories. Using the latest 64-bit technology allows DiskWarrior 5 to handle even the largest disks.
- Ships on a bootable flash drive to repair your startup disk Flash drives start up much faster than DVDs and can be updated as needed.
- Includes the new DiskWarrior Recovery Maker New Macs have new OS X startup requirements. DiskWarrior Recovery Maker updates your DiskWarrior Recovery flash drive with the latest OS X. See all new features »

Jim Sturgess On Spider-Man Musical
He's been working on the U2 show
As many Spidey fans may know, director Julie Taymor (Across The Universe and the stage version of The Lion King) has been working on a Spider-Man stage musical with songs by U2. Yes, that sounds like a ridiculous thing to be doing, but Cinematical recently spoke to Jim Sturgess who said it's actually looking pretty good. Taymor has said in past interviews that Sturges and his Across The Universe co-star Evan Rachel Wood would be her ideal stars for the show and now Sturgess says that he's been working on it with her.
"We actually have done a workshop for it," he told the site. "[Taymor] asked me and Evan to come down and do this workshop that she was doing, so it was a chance to work with Julie again and Evan again...We just did two weeks, and we kind of hung out with Bono and the Edge and sung songs about Spider-Man...As ridiculous as it sounds, it's going to be an incredible piece of work."
Sturgess says he's not sure if he'd be in the final show, because it depends on timing. Cinematical also raised something we've discussed in news stories before: would Sturgess be interested in playing Spidey on film, if Tobey Maguire doesn't come back for a fourth film? He's got the right kind of geeky-handsome look for the role and a boy-next-door temparament that would work. But he says it's probably not for him. "I don't think I would do it," he says. "I've never seen myself as an actor who might pass off as a superhero ... and I'm amazed that I'm even being considered for the Spider-Man role."
We still say that if the role were to become open he'd be our first choice to become Peter Parker. Head to Cinematical for more of the interview.

For much of the 20th century the Eaton family name was one of the most recognized in Canada.
Timothy Eaton founded his first department store in 1869, in Toronto. The T. Eaton Company grew quickly and, by the late 1920s, had become the largest department store business in Canada.
To commemorate the 50th anniversary of the company, Eaton's employees raised money to commission a large sculpture of Timothy Eaton. It was donated to the ROM in 1999.
Lady Flora McCrea Eaton, Timothy Eaton's daughter-in-law, was among the first of the family to take a strong interest in the ROM, and she served on several Museum committees. The next generation of the family, notably Signy and John David Eaton, were generous philanthropists, and supported a number of charitable organizations, including the Museum.
Evidence of the family's commitment to the ROM can be found throughout the Museum. For example, in the 1920s the Eatons donated funds to purchase a number of key pieces for the European furniture collection. During the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s, the T. Eaton Company donated some outstanding pieces. Their donations have been wide-ranging, from European decorative arts to Canadian textiles to gems to African art.
Nicole Eaton has continued the family's legacy at the ROM, as an active volunteer and donor for more than 20 years. In the 1980s, she played a fundamental role in raising funds for ROM galleries, and improving the Museum's ability to achieve financial self-sufficiency.
Nicole Eaton was also instrumental in the creation of the Institute for Contemporary Culture. She and Edwin Goodman, Chairman of the Board of Trustees, saw a need to engage the ROM with the contemporary world.
In appreciation of Nicole Eaton and her husband Thor's generous gift to the Renaissance ROM project, the Museum has named its theatre the Signy and Cléophée Eaton Theatre.

Sacred island of the Amazon Nation. In Second Life this is an extension on the builds of Freelon, the first Amazon settlement. In RL, Aretias is thought to be a small island in the Black Sea, just off the cost of Turkey.
Aretias was created on the grid in late November, 2004.
The real world
For centuries the stories of the Amazons were thought to be pure myth, however recent discoveries are starting to show that many of the ancient accounts may well be based on fact. Some authors going so far as to imply that certain writings, ex. Herodotus, may even be historically accurate records of a time and people long since forgotten by conventional history.

SP166P: C166P Equilibrium
The Equilibrium takes the highly refined symmetrical design of the popular Balance folding knife and scales it up to offer a full four-fingered grip. Like the Balance, the Equilibrium was designed by renowned knifemaker Ed Schempp. And, like its inspiration, it packs impressive cutting performance into a remarkably compact package.
The Equilibrium features a satin-finished stainless steel handle that forms the foundation for its Reeve Integral Lock (R.I.L.) mechanism—a robust, reliable lock built into the reverse-side handle scale. A four-position pocket clip allows the knife to be conveniently carried on either side of the body in either the tip-up or tip-down position. Its compact size also makes it a practical and stylish money clip when carried inside the pocket.

LOS ANGELES – Public pension funds across the country were stung by millions of dollars in losses from the recent debacles at Worldcom, Enron and other companies, but their managers say they have no immediate plans to change strategies.
Those losses, while huge, represent a tiny portion of most funds' well-diversified assets. But they show how even professional money managers were caught unaware of the fundamental problems underlying these once high-flying companies.
Pension fund officials say there was no way they could have known that WorldCom, the nation's second-largest long-distance telephone company, was hiding nearly $4 billion in expenses from the investing public.
"We're scrutinizing things closer than we might have," said Gary Bruebaker, chief investment officer of the Washington State Investment Board. "The trouble is, all we can use is publicly available information."
Some experts argue that institutional investors must scrutinize more closely the information companies provide to them, as well as intensify their own research.
"A good analyst has to go beyond what a company feeds them," said Beth Young, a pension fund consultant in Takoma Park, Md.
Professional money managers also need to be skeptical about "too good to be true" stories, she said.
The California Public Employees Retirement System, the nation's largest pension fund, said it has lost $235 million on WorldCom shares and about $330 million on WorldCom bonds -- paper losses for now, since the shares haven't been cashed in. That represents about 0.4 percent of the fund's total assets of $150 billion.
New York state's pension fund, the nation's second largest with assets of about $112 billion, suffered its biggest single loss in history through its WorldCom investment. The fund lost about $300 million on its holdings in the telecom giant, aides to state Comptroller H. Carl McCall said.
The nation's third largest pension fund, the California State Teachers Retirement System, estimates that it is looking at $99.4 million in losses on WorldCom stock and $9.2 million in losses on WorldCom bonds.
That's a fraction of the fund's $100 billion portfolio. But it follows losses last fall on Enron investments of $47.5 million.
The Florida State Board of Administration, which invests the state's pension fund, said its losses in WorldCom are between $85 million and $90 million, about 0.1 percent of the $90 billion fund. It had taken a $300 million hit on Enron.
The Washington State Investment Board, which manages $53 billion in assets, has lost $75 million in WorldCom bonds and stands to lose at least another $8.5 million in WorldCom stock, Bruebaker said. That's on top of a $97.5 million loss on Enron stocks and bonds.
From Oregon to South Carolina, fund officials say none of the losses will affect their ability to pay pensions. But that hasn't stopped a flurry of calls from members who worry what impact WorldCom, Enron, Global Crossing and other disastrous investments will have on their benefits.
U.S. pension funds have suffered overall losses for two consecutive years -- unusual in the business.
The California teacher fund is on course to post a loss of about 3 percent in its fiscal year ending Sunday, spokeswoman Sherry Reser said. That compares with a loss of 9.1 percent a year earlier and an annual gain of 12.7 percent before that.
But Reser said the losses are no cause for alarm and are in line with various investment indices the fund compares its performance to.
"We have a structure in place that takes into account the ups and downs of the market. We are able to weather the storm," she said.
In a worst-case scenario, public funds would still pay out because they are backed by the government.
But that doesn't mean that all pension fund members are escaping the stock market downturn and extraordinary losses unscathed.
Some funds are instituting new fees. New York, for example, has begun requiring local government employees to begin making contributions to the fund after three straight years of no contributions. The rate is 0.5 percent of payroll.
Pension officials said their systems are sound and that losses such as those suffered with the WorldCom investment do not signal a warning trend. Fund holdings are spread among a vast collection of investments, and investing strategies focus on 20- to 30-year periods.
"We don't make any quick tactical moves," said Brad Pacheco, spokesman for CalPERS, which provides retirement and health benefit services to more than 1.3 million government workers and retirees.
In many cases, the pension funds were required to own stock in Enron and WorldCom because part of their portfolios are designed to mirror major stock indices that included both companies.
Rather than shift their investment strategies, pension officials said they are weighing legal action and proposing new accounting rules to regulators.
On Monday, for example, McCall plans to announce new rules for companies doing business with the New York pension fund in an attempt to prevent further losses from corporate scandals.
McCall said he is considering seeking lead plaintiff status in any court action against WorldCom.
CalPERS, meanwhile, is urging Congress and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to adopt a package of financial market reforms to improve corporate audit committees and to make audits more independent. In August, CalPERS' 13-member board will consider joining a class-action lawsuit against WorldCom.
WorldCom, Global Crossing and Enron represent systemic problems, said Young, the pension fund manager.
It won't be enough to crack down on individuals, Young said. Reforms are needed and institutional investors are going to have to help drive them, she said.

Epic new spending and taxes, pricier insurance, rationed care, dishonest accounting: The Pelosi health bill has it all.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi has reportedly told fellow Democrats that she's prepared to lose seats in 2010 if that's what it takes to pass ObamaCare, and little wonder. The health bill she unwrapped last Thursday, which President Obama hailed as a "critical milestone," may well be the worst piece of post-New Deal legislation ever introduced.
In a rational political world, this 1,990-page runaway train would have been derailed months ago. With spending and debt already at record peacetime levels, the bill creates a new and probably un-repealable middle-class entitlement that is designed to expand over time. Taxes will need to rise precipitously, even as ObamaCare so dramatically expands government control of health care that eventually all medicine will be rationed via politics.
Yet at this point, Democrats have dumped any pretense of genuine bipartisan "reform" and moved into the realm of pure power politics as they race against the unpopularity of their own agenda. The goal is to ram through whatever income-redistribution scheme they can claim to be "universal coverage." The result will be destructive on every level—for the health-care system, for the country's fiscal condition, and ultimately for American freedom and prosperity.
•The spending surge. The Congressional Budget Office figures the House program will cost $1.055 trillion over a decade, which while far above the $829 billion net cost that Pelosi fed to credulous reporters is still a low-ball estimate. Most of the money goes into government-run "exchanges" where people earning between 150% and 400% of the poverty level—that is, up to about $96,000 for a family of four in 2016—could buy coverage at heavily subsidized rates, tied to income. The government would pay for 93% of insurance costs for a family making $42,000, 72% for another making $78,000, and so forth.
At least at first, these benefits would be offered only to those whose employers don't provide insurance or work for small businesses with 100 or fewer workers. The taxpayer costs would be far higher if not for this "firewall"—which is sure to cave in when people see the deal their neighbors are getting on "free" health care. Pelosi knows this, like everyone else in Washington.
Even so, the House disguises hundreds of billions of dollars in additional costs with budget gimmicks. It "pays for" about six years of program with a decade of revenue, with the heaviest costs concentrated in the second five years. The House also pretends Medicare payments to doctors will be cut by 21.5% next year and deeper after that, "saving" about $250 billion. ObamaCare will be lucky to cost under $2 trillion over 10 years; it will grow more after that.
• Expanding Medicaid, gutting private Medicare. All this is particularly reckless given the unfunded liabilities of Medicare—now north of $37 trillion over 75 years. Pelosi wants to steal $426 billion from future Medicare spending to "pay for" universal coverage. While Medicare's price controls on doctors and hospitals are certain to be tightened, the only cut that is a sure thing in practice is gutting Medicare Advantage to the tune of $170 billion. Democrats loathe this program because it gives one of out five seniors private insurance options.
As for Medicaid, the House will expand eligibility to everyone below 150% of the poverty level, meaning that some 15 million new people will be added to the rolls as private insurance gets crowded out at a cost of $425 billion. A decade from now more than a quarter of the population will be on a program originally intended for poor women, children and the disabled.
Even though the House will assume 91% of the "matching rate" for this joint state-federal program—up from today's 57%—governors would still be forced to take on $34 billion in new burdens when budgets from Albany to Sacramento are in fiscal collapse. Washington's budget will collapse too, if anything like the House bill passes.
• European levels of taxation. All told, the House favors $572 billion in new taxes, mostly by imposing a 5.4-percentage-point "surcharge" on joint filers earning over $1 million, $500,000 for singles. This tax will raise the top marginal rate to 45% in 2011 from 39.6% when the Bush tax cuts expire—not counting state income taxes and the phase-out of certain deductions and exemptions. The burden will mostly fall on the small businesses that have organized as Subchapter S or limited liability corporations, since the truly wealthy won't have any difficulty sheltering their incomes.
This surtax could hit ever more earners because, like the alternative minimum tax, it isn't indexed for inflation. Yet it still won't be nearly enough. Even if Congress had confiscated 100% of the taxable income of people earning over $500,000 in the boom year of 2006, it would have only raised $1.3 trillion. When Democrats end up soaking the middle class, perhaps via the European-style value-added tax that Pelosi has endorsed, they'll claim the deficits that they created made them do it.
Under another new tax, businesses would have to surrender 8% of their payroll to government if they don't offer insurance or pay at least 72.5% of their workers' premiums, which eat into wages. Such "play or pay" taxes always become "pay or pay" and will rise over time, with severe consequences for hiring, job creation and ultimately growth. While the US already has one of the highest corporate income tax rates in the world, Democrats are on the way to creating a high structural unemployment rate, much as Europe has done by expanding its welfare states.
Meanwhile, a tax equal to 2.5% of adjusted gross income will also be imposed on some 18 million people who CBO expects still won't buy insurance in 2019. Democrats could make this penalty even higher, but that is politically unacceptable, or they could make the subsidies even higher, but that would expose the (already ludicrous) illusion that ObamaCare will reduce the deficit.
