Officials to move forward with renovations to bridge near North Side park
Pittsburgh officials are finished negotiating with supporters of North Side's Allegheny Commons who say a $5 million bridge renovation will damage the historic integrity and character of the oldest green space in the city's park system.
"We've been round and round with them to the point we just have to agree to disagree," said Pat Hassett, assistant public works director. "There's nothing more we can do. Time has run out."
Engineers are moving ahead with plans to overhaul the West Ohio Street Bridge by raising the bridge deck 3 to 5 feet to at least 22 feet above the railroad tracks so it will comply with state bridge height requirements.
They'll try not to ruin the aesthetic appeal of the National Register of Historic Places-eligible park built in 1867, but Alida Baker, project director of the Allegheny Commons Initiative, a nonprofit neighborhood group working to restore and rehabilitate the park, doubts that will be possible.
"It will alter the historic landscape," Baker said.
A modern bridge built to code would disrupt the open sight lines that distinguish the park, Baker argues, adding that it would further fracture a space that development has whittled from 110 acres to 64.
Baker's group wants a study done on other options, noting three other bridges over the railroad in or near the park do not provide a 22-foot clearance.
"If this were the only possible solution, we would listen," she said. "But we aren't convinced there aren't other alternatives."
The city lost a court battle years ago against Norfolk Southern Railroad to keep the 19-foot clearance on the bridge.
Hassett said the poor condition of the more-than-a-century-old truss bridge and the potentially fleeting availability of federal funding for the work demands swift action.
Final designs for the bridge could begin in November, pending approval from the federal government of an environmental assessment that takes into account the impact of the work on the park and its historic nature. Both were heavily considered throughout the process, Hassett said.
Construction could begin in spring 2015, he said.
The matter could end up in federal court, Baker said.
"But we have precious little money," she said, "and we'd hate to spend it that way."
The bridge would be built largely with $5 million in federal funding, a rarity for park-related projects in Pittsburgh. Public funding is scarce for the 180-park system, and nonprofits often fill in the gaps.
Since 1998, the private nonprofit Pittsburgh Parks Conservancy has raised more than $60 million for park improvements as the city's partner. Public Works sets aside an average of $5.5 million a year for parks and green space. The Allegheny Regional Asset District has tentatively budgeted $5.2 million next year in sales tax revenue for city parks. Pittsburgh allocates about $4 million a year.
This week, the conservancy will award a contract to revamp Cliffside Park in the Hill District, where clumps of crab grass spread far into the faded playground and a defaced sign stands above a dirty water fountain.
The project involves building an entry trellis, pathways and play areas as well as an overlook, picnic areas and a basketball court. Work should be completed by spring.
"It's been neglected for a long time," said Marvin Coates, 40, a truck driver who visits the park he helped restore in the early 1990s as part of a neighborhood crew hired by the city. "It's not even really safe for kids to play down here."
Bids ranged from $712,242 to $1.03 million. Funding will come from a mix of nonprofit and public sources.

THE annual New Year's Day rubber duck race held in a Ribble Valley village went swimmingly.
The traditional event was organised by members of the Bolton-by-Bowland Young Farmers group and more than 150 people joined in by buying a duck and watching it float down the River Ribble.
There were cash prizes for the first three past the finishing line.
This year the race was in aid of Jack's Journey, a charity which was set up to support four-year-old Jack Lambert from the village who had been diagnosed with a brain tumour. He is currently in remission.
Jessica Townson, chairman of the Bolton-by-Bowland group and vice-chairman of the Lancashire Young Farmers said: "It was a wonderful day. It started to rain a little bit but apart from that it was great.
"It is a tradition we have had for a few years now. We chose Jack's Journey because it is a local charity and a few of our members are friends of his family or are related to Jack.
"It is very close to our hearts."
The day also involved a tug-of-war between eight villagers and eight young farmers.
Jessica, 23, said: "Unfortunately this year the villagers won but we won it last year so it was their turn."
Bolton-by-Bowland Young Farmers was set up in 1937 and currently has 25 members aged between 10 and 26.

Thanks guys!
One question, I have just came to one theme that was recently approved, that has similar background to one in my template. It looks more distracting (thats my opinion) and this doesn't make any sense to me… I don't want to post link to that theme here, but would like some reviewer to compare them if possible.
Hi guys, thanks for comments! Really appreciate them. Will try to fix this stuff, and maybe upload again.
Hi all,
I got an email to start a thread, so I'm doing that. The theme was rejected for several reasons, due to "high standards". Personally I think that I saw couple themes that are not up to these standards, but are approved… But I'll let reviewer's look at that.
These are the reasons for rejections:
1) The background is very distracting and does not work well with the way the content is displayed.
3) Overall aesthetics will need improvements before being resubmitted.
And from second email:
I did not see the additional background images. If our review of the primary design does not meet our criteria, we do not continue the review. Unfortunately your primary design did not meet our criteria. You might consider using another of your designs as the primary.
2) The Blog, Twitter and Flicker elements at the bottom of the template need some padding adjustments.
This theme has five skins in it with different backgrounds and colors. Also there are 3 typo style sheets. Please tell me which one should I use as default.
Link to demo: modular
Screen shots of different skins: clear modern retro sharp
Hm, strange thing happened to me. I have posted one of the first comments on tutorial9.net and I can't access first few pages of comments… It disappeared somehow. Would like to know what happened…
Heh. Just wanted to open same thread, and saw this one.
Please use some nicer smilies.
Slife can't do that. It is just time tracking… Billings is great piece of software, but lack of multi currency doesn't work for me. Too bad, if they fix that, I'm comming back.Did you know that billings version 3 has been released? I haven't checked out the new features, but you might want to see if they have integrated multi currency yet, just in case
Yes, I have checked few days ago and still doesn't have that implemented… But they sad they will!
Billings 3 is my tracker of choice, because it's got an excellent interface and includes invoicing and client organization. Definitely worth the money!
All true, but missing this one thing (but important for me).
Invoice 3 is nice software to, but doesn't have time tracking.
Slife can't do that. It is just time tracking… Billings is great piece of software, but lack of multi currency doesn't work for me. Too bad, if they fix that, I'm comming back.
Try Slife it is free and it is automatic tracking tool. You can also define activities for applications (like reading email, designing…) and add goals. I started using it few days ago and it looks promising for now.

Bourbon / American Whiskey
> Prichards Tennessee Whiskey ]
Size: 750ml
Benjamin Prichard's Tennessee Whiskey is distilled in the style of the traditional Tennessee whiskey like their fifth generation grandfather Benjamin made way back in the early 1800's. He made his whiskey in Davidson County, Tennessee from white corn in a pot still. White corn, having a higher sugar content than yellow corn, brings a note of sweetness not common with other bourbons and Tennessee whiskies. Their famous neighbor up the road has had a bill introduced to the Tennessee State Legislature that will require that Tennessee Whiskey will have to be charcoal mellowed according the Lincoln County Process. Though they are located in Lincoln County, they sought and received an exemption from the bill. Benjamin Prichard's Tennessee Whiskey is not charcoal mellowed!

On Nov. 14, 2007, Detective Bob Hayes was a field training officer showing the ropes to a new police recruit. While searching a remote area for the car of a missing woman (34-year-old Nikki Sisounong whose body was later found in Montgomery County), he came upon the skeletal remains of another woman.
Four and a half years later Jane Doe, the only unidentified death in La Vergne, may be closer to finding her way home thanks to new technology that better defines what she might have looked like.
Several years ago the University of Tennessee, Knoxville reconstructed what she might have looked like in clay form. Modern technology can now take her rendering one step further and the La Vergne Police Department contacted Louisiana State University to do just that.
Jane Doe's remains have been digitally enhanced in order to provide an image of the victim as she would appear in a photo.
While many of Jane Doe's features look the same as the original clay reconstruction, the image of what she might have looked like in real life is striking.
"The University of Tennessee did a fantastic job, but it is very helpful to add a computer enhanced photo as we try to learn the identity of Jane Doe," said Detective Hayes. "We know that somewhere her family or friends are missing her and we want them to be able to bring her home."
According to reconstruction experts, Jane Doe is between 5'2" and 5'9" (most likely around 5'5") and is between the ages of 30 and 45 (most like the mid- to upper-30s). Her race has not been confirmed, although her hair appeared to be dark-colored and curly.
"Based on the medical examiner's report, we know her death was not natural and it is most likely a homicide," said Detective Hayes. "There is a 50 percent chance that she is from somewhere else outside of middle Tennessee, perhaps a neighboring state or even another region."
Hayes will share the images and photos of the jewelry believed to belong to Jane Doe with the National Crime Information Center (NCIC), the FBI's Violent Crimes Against Persons (ViCAP), the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs), and the Doe Network, along with media in and outside of Tennessee.
If anyone has information about the identity of Jane Doe, please call the LaVergne Police Department at 615-793-7744.

CHINO - Mayor Dennis Yates is calling accusations made against him and other council members political mudslinging.
Mayoral candidate Lee McGroarty, who is running against Yates in the November election, is alleging the mayor and council members of specific violations of the city's code of conduct.
McGroarty made comments earlier this month during a City Council meeting.
The allegations:
-in 2004 Yates requested two positions for the South Coast Air Quality Management District and instead of opening it up to the public he appointed Councilman Earl Elrod and Councilwoman Eunice Ulloa's husband, Robert.
-Councilman Elrod serves as a high-ranking official with the Inland Empire Utilities Agency and his wife Sondra Elrod is hired as the agency's spokeswoman.
-Sondra Elrod received "thousands of dollars as a paid fundraiser for numerous elected officials."
-the City Council hasn't done their "due diligence" in reporting "these incomes on various state filing forms as outlined in the Code of Conduct."
-the council normally requests City Attorney Jimmy Gutierrez to do these investigations, however because he has contributed large campaign donations to Yates, Ulloa and Elrod, "another conflict exists and renders him unable to show impartially."
During Tuesday's City Council meeting a number of community members voiced their disdain over McGroarty's comments and Gutierrez addressed the candidate's five accusations, including the one made against him.
Calls made to McGroarty's cell phone and work today have not been returned.
Gutierrez went over McGroarty's allegations point by point refuting each item, supporting each item with law, the code of conduct. He also stated he could not refer the allegations to the district attorney's office when there was no merit.
"I've never investigated any of those allegations of conflict and the reason is really simple is that's because I don't have the authority to do so. The conflict of interest code says it's the district attorney or the Fair Political Practices Commission it doesn't say the city attorney can do the investigation. So I don't have the authority to do it, that's No. 1," Gutierrez said.
"Second, if I made a campaign contribution my campaign contribution can't be the source of conflict of interest. With that, I don't find any merit in any of these allegations and I can't make a recommendation to the city manager or the city council to refer to the district attorney, I don't see anything there."
Yates said he wasn't concerned when McGroarty approached the council with his issues.
"He started slinging mud before that, so none of us were surprised," he said.
"With my campaign I'm not going to do that. Everyone has baggage and he does too, but we're keeping it positive about the community and the concerns of the community and what has to be done to weather through this recession and my campaign is staying positive."
Yates and McGroarty are expected to participate in a Chino Valley Chamber of Commerce candidate forum at 6:30 p.m. tonight at Chino City Hall, 13220 Central Ave.

I can assign the network adapter names to the correct interfaces when I boot

Warning: This page contains some works of "anomalous motion illusion", which might make sensitive observers dizzy or sick. Should you feel dizzy, leave this page immediately.This illusion was created by my friend, Herman Verwaal of Exloo, Netherland. Herman took up the creation of optical illusions and pop art after he retired. Unfortunately Herman's time on this planet ended last December. He will be missed but not forgotten. Long ago he gave me access to a large library of illusions that he had created he also gave me permission to display them on my blogs. Here is the second that I have featured on this blog.
Herman Verwaal
Used w/permission
This is and example of an anomalous motion optical illusion. Also referred to as peripheral drift optical illusion. As your eyes scan the image the image appears to move. If however you manage to stare at just one point, without moving your eyes, all motion will stop.
That is why this is referred to as a peripheral drift illusion. As your eyes drift across the image the motion is seen out of your peripheral vision. A more detailed explanation of this type of illusion can be found here (as a PDF file).
Printer Alert----> If you have access to a color printer this illusion works on paper too! Print it out to amaze your family or friends.

Vancouver slide-guitar freaks rejoice: Sonny Landreth's coming to town
Vancouver fans of bluesy slide-guitar should be psyched to hear that Louisiana bottleneck ace Sonny Landreth is heading to Vancouver. It was announced today that he'll play the Electric Owl on Wednesday, January 30, as part of the Black Hen Music series, which means he'll be trading licks with local six-string ace Steve Dawson.
Can I get a "yeehaw!"?
Landreth discovered his love of slide as a teen and over the years developed a Chet Atkins–inspired fingerstyle technique that allows him to seamlessly fuse the bluesy spirit of the Delta with the Cajun stylings of his home state. As a youngster honing his craft, Landreth used metal slides before switching to the glass ones synonymous with his liquid, otherworldly tone.
"I had a friend with a motorcycle shop," he explained to me a few years back, "so I went over and got a pair of handlebars, got a hacksaw out, and started making a lifetime supply of slides. Then a coupla years later I started using glass, and just kinda fell in love with that."
According to Eric Clapton, Landreth is "probably the most underestimated musician on the planet and also is probably one of the most advanced." Anyone who saw him play the Yale in the winter of 2009 would likely agree.
Here's a little taste of what he's all about.

Voyager of the Seas--a slam dunk for kids!: Voyager of the Seas Cruise Review by bilboinsa
Overall Member Rating
Voyager of the Seas--a slam dunk for kids!
Destination: Western Caribbean
Embarkation: Galveston
I want to stress that overall our cruise was terrific! The service and food was absolutely the best. Any negative observations should be viewed in that context, and also in the light that we are novices at cruising.
I learned that getting on and off the ship can affect your mood, so do some research and get good parking/shuttle service if you have more than a bag or two per person. Lighthouse Cruise parking was recommended to us by some savvy neighbors, but unfortunately Lighthouse was full the day before we set sail. We bought covered parking from More VOI valet parking online, and it advertised its proximity as walking distance to the docks. Well, it was a long walk fully loaded. More importantly, unlike other parking services, it does not pick you up upon return. Be smart--go with Lighthouse--just book online early.
Fantastic!!! Wow! It's HUGE! Took us several days to remember which end of the ships had which rooms, restaurants, etc... We chose this ship for the kids' features and it did not disappoint. Full basketball court (also doubled as volleyball and soccer and dodgeball arenas), huge rock-climbing wall, inline skating track, miniature golf, and an ICE SKATING RINK!!! I knew it had one based on the research, but until you see it in person,it's hard to believe! The overall design of the ship is gorgeous. The gym was terrific--I biked almost every morning. Main Stage Theater was amazing. I enjoyed finding tons of nooks and crannies on the ship. No access to bridge or engine room--security issues. My wife didn't understand how I could be sad about that!
We are not "main room" dining folks, but we did eat there for 2 meals--captains and lobster dinners. Getting kids dressed for a dinner isn't our idea of vacation. Very nice service and food, however. Out waitress offered everyone seconds on the lobster, because frankly, they were on the small size.
Cozumel, Grand Cayman and Jamaica. First two--GREAT! I had been to both before, but wife and kids had not. They loved them both--wonderful water sports available. I Scuba, but we all just did lots of snorkeling and loved it. We didn't book excursions though the ship. Taxi'd to Chankanaab and hopped on a great 2-hour tour in Georgetown at the port. I must say that GC has fantastic government tour workers at the port. They steered us clear of the riff-raff and steered us to the tour bargains. Also gave lots of tips and where NOT to waste your money, etc... Jamaica was a waste of time. Port was Falmouth, and much has been written about it here already. Although many of the vendors are sweet and kind, the setting is just silly. Looks like a county fair not yet open with lots of half-built barns and pens. We had read (here on CC) that the smart move was to take the ship's free buses to Rose (Mount) Hall, and taxi it from there to Mo Bay. Once on the bus, we were told there WERE NO taxis allowed at Rose Hall, and that it would just be a there and back trip. Oh well, live and learn.
As a novice, I was disappointed in the embarkation process. I thought RC's "online check-in" and an early arrival time meant no waiting to get on board. Ironically, almost everyone does the online check-in (ostensibly to save time), so the line for those that didn't was much shorter than ours was. C'est le vie!
Once on board, however, service on this cruise was outstanding. Tipped our cabin steward above and beyond bc he was so great. VOTS is a great value, but will be gone soon to Europe. RC is sending Navigator, I believe to replace it. Hope it is as good! Less

Cabin review: E18524 Deluxe Oceanview Stateroom with Balcony
It's a cruise ship--cabins are going to be small-ish. But spend the extra for a good balcony room--it really is worth the extra space (we used it to store snorkel gear and swim suits) and "ahhhhhh" factor! Great showers!

Hi there.
I'm porbably gonna buy me a pickle soon. Now I'm wondering about the size. I'm 6ft and weigh about 176lbs. Nowadays I mostly shred the slopes while doing a few spins, butters and presses here and there (not so much of a park guy).
I'm considering the 159. What do you think should I go smaller?

Add a touch of the tropics in your fantastic bedroom. Vibrant lime green and bright orange mixed with the unique textures of grass trim dust skirts are fun and whimsical of this children's bedding set. The duvet and shams with dancing hula poodles set the stage of imagination. Our kids sheet sets mix perfectly when layered with our teen quilts.
The hand painted mural is just divine. The way the ceiling in the girls bedroom curves you can almost feel the palm tree swaying in the wind. The use of the Adirondack chairs make this kids room a perfect for a beach house or a guest room. The painted yellow and white stripe night table is a great addition to the Caribbean or beach motif.

October 2006
A sandstone bench and engraved stone in memory of Andrew Crook now grace the Walter Orr Roberts Weather Trail behind the Mesa Lab, giving friends, family, and co-workers a special place to remember the late NCAR scientist and dedicated athlete.
"Andrew is everywhere here," says Carol Park (RAL), Andrew's longtime partner. "NCAR was his home for years as a scientist, he ran the Mesa Trail often, and we hiked these trails. This spot is natural for Andrew."
The memorial was unveiled during a small ceremony on September 23. Carol and Dave Albo, also in RAL, began looking for a place to memorialize Andrew about six months ago. "Dave and I considered various options for places for not just us, but everyone: the running and NCAR communities, colleagues, and friends. Our goal was to find just the right place for everyone," Carol says.
After studying procedures for placing a bench on Boulder Open Space and Mountain Parks and deciding it would take too long, the two turned their attention to NCAR property. Katy Schmoll (UCAR vice president for finance and administration) presented the idea to the President's Council, which approved it unanimously.
"From that moment on, everything just fell into place," Carol says. "Everyone was very helpful."
With help from the Andrew Crook Memorial Fund (see below), Carol and Dave commissioned a bench and engraved stone from Tribble Stone Company just north of Boulder. John Pereira and Rich Johnson in Physical Plant Services transported the bench and stone to the Mesa Lab, where they moved rocks to clear a spot on the weather trail. They cemented the bench into place and placed the stone.
The memorial sits in a spectacular location between two Douglas firs with the Flatirons rising in the background. The engraving reads: "N. Andrew Crook: 1958–2006: Beloved son, brother, uncle, friend. Respected scientist and runner. A gentle man at peace."
"Carving words into stone that would likely outlive us all was intimidating, to say the least," Carol says.
"I find the simplicity of this place perfect for remembering Andrew," she adds. "I hope others do as well."
Funds allocated specifically for the memorial were donated by the community through a fund set up by Carol and Dave. Money that remains will be added to the Andrew Crook Memorial Fund, which will be managed by UCAR to support education-related activities for early career scientists in the atmospheric sciences. If sufficient funds are received, an endowed scholarship will be established in Andrew's name. Those who wish to contribute are encouraged to do so by making checks payable to UCAR with "Andrew Crook Memorial Fund" indicated on the comment line. Please give checks to Diane Simmons (FL2, Room 2100) or mail to UCAR, c/o Ginger Emery, P.O. Box 3000, 80307-3000. For more information, contact Tom Warner at ext. 8411.

3rd party charactars and some of the best 1st party Sony charactars, holiday 2012 release - BOOM. This is great news
Yawn.... Looks like a kids game.
It looks like a very sad copy of Super Smash Brothers.
From what little they did reveal it looks like it could be pretty cool. Definitely looks like SSB, but I love all those games and if this game is like them, I'll probably love this game too.
Yeah plus competition in a genre that has just one existing franchise is good. I was personally hoping for a powerstone vibe to this game but this still looks really cool!
All of which looks to have been quite heftily lifted from that game into this one. I agree with Rapture. It looks like an uninspired clone, which is sad, considering Sony has the talent to have made this something a little more unique. A third person, 3D-plane brawler that played out in literal arenas could have made this something truly extraordinary, and would be more fitting of what a lot of these games are. Mario and Kirby and Pikachu and friends started off in 2D planes; it's only natural they'd evolve into a more higher tech landscape of the same.
Cole, Radec, Spyro, Crash, Jak, Drake, etc., all began in fully fledged worlds. And Sony has the power to have done this more justice. As it is now, it's a complete grab at Smash. Which is fine--I'm sure it will still be fun. But it's still kind of funny. Or sad, depending on how involved you are in the politics of video games. If I wasn't at work right now I'd sally on over to 4chan and enjoy all the fights likely playing out at the moment.
I for one am excited to see where this game goes. I do hope it has it's own vibe and doesn't play exactly like Smash.
By arena I meant in the same vein of Cole's world or Drake's. Being able to hide behind cover or vault over it while pursuing/escaping an opponent/multiple opponents. Unless I'm mistaken, PowerStone presented a Hawk-Eye's view of its characters. (I can't really say, I only played it once when I was younger). And, while not true for all of the characters in Sony's roster (Sackboy, Parappa), I believe the sort of game I mentioned would have been more appropriate to a lot of the game's cast.
All just my opinion, of course. As I already said, I'm sure the game will be fun, and as Sir Scud said, none of us can really say anything until we've seen it in action for ourselves.
Meh. I lost interest in super smash bros like 10 years ago why would this excite me now? Its cool to see all the playstation characters in one game but that will wear off quick for me.
no third party characters during ps1/2 era. pass.
The potential cash surge for Character DLC scares me about by fighters. I have always seen fighter characters as unlocks and not cash dlc which dissapoints me. (SFxT) It being a first party Sony Game I can see quite alot of potential for it being free / already included in the disc as unlocks. (like Tekkan 6) How ever with 3rd party characters I think there may be a price :/
But seriously looking forward to this game, but like said before might be a GOTY release for me.
I want one thing. One thing, and one thing only.
And this is it:
This game on the PS Vita.
Having seen the vids now, they copied everything from Smash Bros except the best bit.... smashing eachother into oblivion. And trying gallantly not to get smashed into oblivion when your % is terminally high. You can only kill people after going super god mode? mehhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Yes it looks fun, yes I will def buy it, but I mean my god it is to unsettling how much they did ripoff. Put them side by side and a person who does not know the diff between the two, would not be able to tell.
Then agian that is the way with most fighting games anyways.

Ask Health Experts and Get Answers to Your Health Question ASAP
I have been on Yasmin for nearly 7 years, and it is 1 week before my period is due. I woke up today with few spots of blood when I wiped, and tonight I noticed a little brown discharge as well. I had slight cramping a few times today, but it seemed to occur when I had to have a bowel movement.
Could this be implantation bleeding from pregnancy, or is it breakthrough bleeding? I take my combined oral contraceptive pill within 1 and a half hours of the same time every day, usually right around 6pm. Thank you
Most likely this is breakthrough bleeding. This is not unusual even if you have been taking Yasmin for several years. Pregnancy or implantation bleeding is less likely. I would advise waiting till your period is due before considering pregnancy test.
I hope this helps. Let me know if you have more questions. Please "accept" when done.
Hi Dr. Singh
thank you for your feedback, that is helpful, I will wait until next week to see what happens.

Training Program Prepares State FFA Officer Hopefuls for Selection Process
Training Program Prepares State FFA Officer Hopefuls for Selection Process
The California State University, Chico College of Agriculture hosted its annual State FFA Officer Candidate Training on Friday, March 28, and Saturday, March 29, at the University Farm. Twenty-seven Future Farmers of America (FFA) members spent the weekend developing the skills they will need to run for state FFA office.
Only a handful of the training participants will have the chance to represent the 73,000-member California FFA; however, the training equipped all candidates with stronger leadership and communication skills, a better understanding of their strengths and qualities and a deeper sense of their personal values.
State FFA officer candidates will undergo an intensive selection process at the annual state conference April 12–15 in Fresno in order to serve and represent the California FFA members. The officers' yearlong term consists of facilitating leadership conferences, completing chapter visits and running the 2014 State FFA Conference.
The College of Agriculture hosts the training each year to give candidates a sense of what the actual selection process will be like. Past California FFA state officers Vince Pellegri, Jacob Vazquez, Marlene Romero, Leah Gibson, Kelcie Jones and Mary Steves guided this year's trainees in being authentic with the theme "Authenticity Starts in the Heart." The six former state officers facilitated workshops that prepared the candidates in the areas of interviewing, personal development and professional dress. In addition to the workshops, mock interviews conducted by more than 20 College of Agriculture students to assist candidates in developing answers and practicing their delivery. This year, the training hosted 27 FFA members from across the state, and one even traveled to the training from Oregon.
Mary Steves, a former California FFA State Officer and CSU, Chico agriculture student, believes the training is essential to preparing for the selection process. "I have had the opportunity to participate both as a candidate and now as a Chico State student," Steves said. "The process of being elected as a state officer is an extremely in-depth, detailed and purposeful process. To be completely honest, many more than six individuals are qualified to be state officers. The trick is that students must be able to communicate themselves authentically in order to be successful in the process. It is incredible to see the drive, determination and excitement in these candidates, and we all wish them the best of luck next week!"

An Unlikely Pair: The Army and Acupuncture
Listening to NPR this morning, I almost choked on my toothbrush: the US military is using acupuncture to treat chronic pain.
Not known for its liberal leanings, the defense department is deploying alternative medicine as a weapon against chronic pain. Well, not all wings of the military; just the Air Force has an acupuncture clinic, which it opened in 2002. While the army used to rely solely on medication to treat chronic pain, they have found acupuncture to have minimal to no side affects, no complications, and no interactions with pharmaceuticals. One soldier, experiencing phantom leg pain post-amputation, explained that in the short term acupuncture treated the pain more effectively and more quickly than medication, but admitted that needling might not have a long lasting effect on the pain. He said the acupuncture left him euphoric, where pain meds leave him loopy.
The military advises that acupuncture is by no means a replacement for western medicine, but a great complement to existing techniques to ease the pain of injured soldiers. Have you ever been needled? What is your take on acupuncture?

Group Test: Universal Remote Controls
Why take ten remotes into the living room?
Logitech Harmony 525
Logitech has several products in its Harmony range, with the Harmony 555 being one of the more affordable models.
It can control ten devices, but most unusual thing about the Harmony remotes is Logitech's online set-up process. You connect the Harmony to your Mac or PC using a USB cable and then use the computer to enter the model numbers of your TV and other devices into a database on the Logitech web site. The web site then downloads the information that the Harmony needs to control each device. The process is reasonably straightforward, although setting up your online account and entering the required information can take a while.
However, the big advantage of this approach is that Logitech can easily update its online database with information about new devices – such as our Pioneer Blu-Ray player. We were quickly able to update the Harmony 525 so that it was able to control the Pioneer and give us a bit of high-def James Bond. So while the initial set-up process is a bit long-winded, the Harmony 525 actually turned out to be one of the more versatile and adaptable controls in this group.

Embodied Aesthetics: Evocative Art Criticism
There are three components I address. The first concerns the concept of aesthetic experience and its educational value. The second has to do with art criticism. The third concerns the problematic nature of evocative writing as a pedagogical strategy and as research. One of my goals is to develop in my students (pre-service teachers) an awareness of the particularities of their responses to artworks so that they become aware of the intricacies of their personal meaning making as prompted by artworks. In turn, they may share their insights with others, ultimately their own students — to foster active engagement with artworks. In other words, self-knowledge is the starting point of social, and particularly, educational interactions. Thus, initial aesthetic engagement culminates in the writing of art criticism. I am interested in fostering writing that matches the intensity and involvement of my students' personal experiences with the works in question, and in researching that process
through a procedure that I developed to enable students to map their experiential moments of their interactions with artworks. The procedure provides a basis for: teacher-student dialogue and mutual learning; student self-teaching in terms of successive encounters and the subsequent writing of art criticism. It also provides a phenomenologically based record of the encounter, and data for qualitative research into the constitution of aesthetic encounters.
This study, then, is an examination of the student-based/arts-based research. It will highlight relations between aesthetic interactions and attempts at art criticism in the form of evocative writing. It will also touch on the difficulties inherent in such writing. The data will consist of examples of the aesthetic mapping process and resultant writing.

Police arrested a Norwegian dressed as a police officer for the bombing in Oslo that killed seven and for a mass shooting at a Labor Party youth camp outside the capital that killed at least nine.
Update at 6:46 p.m. ET: A police official tells the Associated Press that today's terror is more like the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing by Timothy McVeigh than the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the World Trade Center by Islamist fundamentalists.
More AP updates here.
Update at 6:40 p.m. ET: Witnesses on Utoya have estimated that 20 to 30 people were shot dead, the English-language Nordic Page says. Hundreds of youths were on the island and had gathered to discuss the earlier bombing in Oslo when the gunman opened fire.
Update at 6:26 p.m. ET: The suspect is 32 years old and is talking with police, but he has not been charged.
"There is a dialogue between our investigators and the arrested," said Acting Police Chief Sveinung Sponheim, according to a translated article in Aftenposten. "He is willing to have a dialogue with the police. We have not yet received any kind of motive."
He confirmed that the gunman used automatic weapons in the island attack and that explosives were found there.
Update at 5:14 p.m. ET: Norwegian Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg says police believe the death toll from the youth camp mass shooting is expected to exceed 10. So far, police have said nine or 10 died.
Update at 5:07 p.m. ET: The suspect is not affiliated with any terrorist organization, the Aftenposten newspaper in Oslo reports. Police "know the arrested man's identity, but will not provide more details about the arrest," according to Google's English translation of the article.
Police are not saying more about the suspect or his background.
Update at 4:40 p.m. ET: A suspect identified as Norwegian and dressed in a police uniform has been arrested, the head of Norway's national police says, according to Norwegian media.
"We believe he had dealings at both events," Acting Chief Sveinung Sponheim said, the newspaper Aftenbladet reports.
One witness told broadcaster NRK the gunman used shotguns, handguns and automatic weapons in the attack at the political youth camp.
In Washington, President Obama condemned the attacks and offered condolences to the Norwegian people, our colleagues at The Oval tell us.
Update at 4:02 p.m. ET: Oslo police report nine or 10 deaths from the shooting attack at the Labor Party youth camp on the island of Utoya. The gunman was seen in Oslo before the bomb blast.
By Douglas Stanglin
Update at 3:14 p.m. ET: The New York Times quotes a terrorism expert as saying the terror group Ansar al-Jihad al-Alami, or the Helpers of the Global Jihad, issued a statement claiming responsibility for the attack. The newspaper quotes Will McCants, a terrorism analyst at CNA, a research institute that studies terrorism, as saying the group called the attacks a response to Norwegian forces' presence in Afghanistan and to unspecified insults to the prophet Mohammed. The statement said, "There is more to come." The Times notes that the claim could not be confirmed.
Update at 2:38 p.m. ET: An eyewitness tells Norway's NRK broadcaster he saw more than 20 bodies at the youth camp shooting, the Associated Press reports.
Update at 2:35 p.m. ET: Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg urges Norwegians not to give in to fear in response to the bombing in central Oslo and the shootings at a youth camp outside the capital. The prime minister told Norwegian broadcaster NRK, "Co-workers have lost their lives today. … It's frightening. That's not how we want things in our country. But it's important that we don't let ourselves be scared because the purpose of that kind of violence is to create fear."
He says he's received unconfirmed reports of dead and injured at the camp shooting but details were sketchy.
Update at 2:26 p.m. ET: The BBC reports that Norwegian Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg called an emergency crisis meeting of his government tonight.
Update at 2:01 p.m. ET: Police say at least seven people were killed in the blast in central Oslo, the Associated Press reports.
Update at 1:56 p.m. ET: There are conflicting reports on casualties at the youth camp shooting outside Oslo. Reuters initially quoted TV2 as saying several people were killed on the island of Utoya, where the shooting occurred. Reuters now quotes police as saying they cannot confirm deaths in the shootings.
Update at 1:46 p.m. ET: CNN quotes NRK state TV as saying police have "good reason" to believe that the bombing in central Oslo and the shooting at the youth camp are linked.
Update at 1:42 p.m. ET: A spokesperson for one Oslo hospital tells the BBC that 11 "heavily injured" people, suffering head and chest wounds, have been hospitalized and that at least 100 people have been treated for lesser injuries.
Update at 1:39 p.m. ET: Reuters quotes Norwegian police as saying they fear there may be explosives at a Labor Party youth camp where a gunman wearing a police uniform opened fire.
Update at 1:11 p.m. ET: NRK state TV reports that one person has been arrested at a Labor Party youth camp outside Oslo where at least five people were injured when a man wearing a police uniform opened fire.
Update at 12:54 p.m. ET: The French news agency AFP quotes a police office in Oslo as saying, "It is necessary to avoid big gatherings, to go back home. It is wise to stay at home."
Update at 12:46 p.m. ET: NRK state TV reports that five people were injured in the shooting at the youth camp run by the Labor Party on an island outside Oslo.
Update at 12:44 p.m. ET: The BBC reports that anti-terrorist police have been dispatched to an island about 40 minutes from Oslo where a man disguised as a policeman reportedly fired at a youth camp operated by the Labor Party. The BBC says Prime Minister Stoltenberg had been scheduled to address the gathering Saturday and was not there at the time of the shooting.
Update at 12:37 p.m. ET: In a separate incident that may be related, a Norwegian newspaper reports that a man in a police uniform fired at a youth camp outside Oslo. The BBC says Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg had been scheduled at speak at the camp.
Update at 12:34 p.m. ET: The AP reports that at least 15 people were injured in the blast. Neither Prime Minster Jens Stoltenberg nor any government ministers were among the injured, the AP reports.
Update at 12:28 p.m. ET: Oslo police say the office of broadcaster TV2 has been sealed off because of a suspicious package, the AP reports.
Update at 11:13 a.m. ET: NRK state TV reports two people were killed in the explosion.
Update at 11:08 a.m. ET: The Norwegian newspaper VG says police confirm that several people were killed in the blast. Police say the explosion was the result of a bomb, VG reports.

Update at 10:45 a.m. ET: Witness Ole Tommy Pedersen tells the AP that the blast shattered almost all the windows in a multistory highrise, sending a cloud of smoke billowing from the lower floors.
"I saw three or four injured people being carried out of the building a few minutes later," Pedersen says.
The AP reports that a Norwegian prosecutor filed terror charges this week against an Iraqi-born cleric for threatening Norwegian politicians with death if he is deported from the country. The indictment centered on statements that Mullah Krekar — the founder of the Kurdish Islamist group Ansar al-Islam — made to various media, including the American network NBC.
Update at 10:31 a.m. ET: Aftenposten reports that people warn there could be other bombs in the area.
Update at 10:28 a.m. ET: Aftenposten reports that most of the injuries were caused by shards of glass that struck people in the street when the explosion occurred around 3:30 p.m. local time.
Update at 10:22 a.m. ET: A video of the aftermath of the blast shows rubble covers several blocks in front of the buillding in downtown Oslo.
Update at 10:14 a.m. ET: Although the source of the blast is unclear, Al-Jazeera TV notes that Norwegian prosecutors on Tuesday filed a terrorism charge against Mullah Krekar, founder of the Kurdish Islamist group Ansar al-Islam.

If any high school football program in the country could approach "legendary" status, it would be De La Salle, an all-boys Catholic school in Concord, Calif.
If holding the nation's longest prep football winning streak at 151 straight games doesn't qualify a school to at least approach "legendary" status, I don't know what they have to do.
De La Salle won the 151 consecutive games from 1992 through the 2003 season. The Spartans went 12-0 or 13-0 every year for 12 straight seasons.
Talk about a dynasty.
In fact, the website "The Spartanhead," dedicated to De La Salle, says "The Spartans are perhaps the greatest dynasty in sports history."
What other team has won 151 straight games?
(I do concede that Long Beach Poly has sent a lot of players to the NFL.)
And guess who is coming to dinner at De La Salle on Saturday night?
Bishop Gorman of Las Vegas will challenge the Spartans on a game to be televised by CBS College Sports.
"The Spartanhead" reports that since Bob Ladouceur took over as head coach at De La Salle in 1979, the Spartans have the highest winning percentage in football history.
Take that USC. And Ohio State.
Want some national championships?
De La Salle has five of those, thank you.
The Spartans were selected national champions in 1998, 2000, 2001, 2002 and 2003 by USA Today.
De La Salle has done pretty well lately, too. The Spartans are two-time California State champions.
De La Salle defeated Crenshaw of Los Angeles to win the 2009 California Interscholastic Federation championship. The Spartans won the 2008 CIF Division I State title.
Oh, and when De La Salle set the 151-game record winning streak, it didn't just break the previous mark, the Spartans obliterated it. The old mark was 72 and De La Salle more than doubled it.
Take that Bill Belichick.
"The Streak" came to an end when the Spartans lost to Bellevue (Wash.) High School, 39-20, at Qwest Field in Seattle on Sept. 5, 2004, before a crowd of 24,987.
I can't even imagine a crowd of 25,000 seeing a high school football game in Nevada.
It's easy to write about De La Salle because the team knocks you out with impressive numbers. And the adjective impressive doesn't do the Spartans justice.
De La Salle is ranked No. 9 in the nation in the latest USA Today rankings. Gorman is No. 18. Not bad, either.
USA Today has De La Salle (2-0) at No. 3 in the West and Gorman (3-1) at No. 4.
No. 2 in the West is Hamilton of Chandler, Ariz.
Hamilton beat Gorman, 24-17, in the Sullenberger Classic between the defending Arizona and Nevada large-school champions in Flagstaff, Ariz., on Aug. 21 in the Skydome at Northern Arizona University.
Bingham of South Jordan, Utah, is No. 1 in the West and No. 3 in the country in the USA Today poll.
No offense to the fine neighbors in the "Beehive State," but I am surprised a team from Utah is No. 3 in the nation. I always think of Florida, Texas and California as the best high school football in the country.
De La Salle opened the season by tromping Junipero Serra (Barry Bonds' alma mater), 45-7, and then turning back St. Mary's of Stockton, 40-14.
The Spartans are led by linebacker Blake Renaud, headed for Boise State, and defensive end Dylan Wynn, bound for Oregon State.
First, let me emphasize Ladouceur is a tremendous coach. No doubt about it. His record proves that. But he can out Lou Holtz even Lou Holtz.
"I don't think there is any question (Gorman) has better athletes than we do," he said.
Ladouceur added, "I don't think we are going to just line up and mow them down. They're big and hard to move. We're going to have to run the ball and mix it up."
Poor De La Salle.
Hey coach Ladouceur. Your team has won 201 straight games against Northern California competition. You've won five national championships. And you're playing at home.
Gorman has won three straight since the close loss to Hamilton in Flagstaff.
The Gaels beat Del Oro of Loomis, Calif., 38-13, at Gorman. A good win. Del Oro won 11 games last season.
Coach Tony Sanchez's Gaels also rolled over Clark, 48-0, and Sierra Vista, 63-0. Gorman seriously let up against both teams in the second half.
Sanchez coached in the same league as De La Salle before coming to Gorman.
I asked a Gorman assistant coach after last week's game how much film they had on De La Salle.
"Years," he said.
Sanchez has a classic example of blackboard material for this game. USA Today picked De La Salle to win 34-15.

Many things may contribute to EDIt is often not easy to talk about personal health issues, especially when they pertain to reproductive health or sensitive issues that affect intimate relationships. Men who experience erectile dysfunction, or ED, often find it difficult to talk about the condition with a spouse, family member or even a doctor. However, proactively addressing ED could help a man alleviate his symptoms.
ED is defined as the inability to achieve or sustain an erection to be able to participate in sexual activity. The Minnesota Men's Health Center says that one in 10 men in the world have ED. The liklihood of experiencing ED increases with age. ED may be caused by any number of factors. Hormones, nerves, muscles, blood vessels, mental health, and other physical responses are necessary to come together to generate an erection.
Men may experience different levels of ED. Severe cases may result in erectile difficulties seven or eight out of 10 attempts. Mild cases could be zero to three failures out of 10. But men should know there are options that can treat ED and that it may be a symptom of an unrelated health condition that needs to be treated. Treating the underlying condition may be enough to reverse erectile dysfunction, according to The Mayo Clinic. Most issues with ED are linked to something physical.
Here are some conditions that may contribute to ED symptoms.
* Heart disease
* Atherosclerosis
* High blood pressure
* Obesity
* Diabetes
* Low testosterone
* Parkinson's disease
* Prostate cancer surgery
* Multiple sclerosis
* Tobacco use
Smokers have a higher likelihood of erectile dysfunction than nonsmokers, according to MMHC. Men who smoke more than one pack a day are 50 percent more likely to experience impotency than nonsmokers the same age.
ED also may be a side effect of certain medications. Switching medications may alleviate ED.
In terms of different treatments for ED, there are several options. After testing and conducting a thorough health history, a doctor may suggest the following.
* Oral medications: Medications like Viagra, Cialis, Levitra, and Staxyn all work in similar fashion. They enhance the effect of nitric oxide in the body to relax the muscles in the penis. This helps increase blood flow to get an erection in response to physical stimulation. You may need to work with a physician to determine the best dosing for your condition.
* Injections: There are injections that can create an erection. Also, there are penile suppositories that can be inserted into the urethra. For men who have ED from low testosterone levels, testosterone therapy may be recommended.
* Pumps: A vacuum erection device is a tube that is placed over the penis. The vacuum draws blood into the penis, and a tension ring is then placed on the base of the penis to hold in the blood and keep it firm.
* Implants: This treatment involves surgically implanting inflatable or semirigid rods into the two sides of the penis to aid with erection.
* Counseling: Sometimes ED is a psychological issue. Working with a psychologist could help alleviate problems that are contributing to ED. Taking medications that treat psychological issues may also help with ED by removing the underlying problem.
* Lifestyle changes: Losing weight and quitting smoking are often effective ways to alleviate ED.
Erectile dysfunction can be an embarrassing condition to discuss. But the sooner men do so, the sooner they'll be on the road to a more fulfilling intimate life.

The material must date back to before 1947 to be legal.
However, the International Fund for Animal Welfare (Ifaw) said it had found a number of bagpipe items of "dubious" origin on sale in Edinburgh.
The campaign group believes that the sale of such items could contribute to more poaching of endangered elephants for their ivory.
Ifaw said the UK ivory trade was "thriving and uncontrolled".
It is campaigning against moves to legalise the sale of African ivory stockpiles.
Ivory smuggling
A committee of the UN Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (Cites), which meets next week, could vote to allow a one-off sale.
Ifaw argues that reopening the legal trade would lead to more poaching and ivory smuggling.
The international ivory trade has been illegal since 1989.
Ifaw released the findings of its Elephants on the High Street investigation on Thursday.
It said pipes containing illegal ivory were discovered on the internet and in the Scottish capital.
Phyllis Campbell-McRae, the organisation's UK director, said: "We found a number of bagpipe items available for sale in Edinburgh where the origin of that ivory was dubious.
"We found traders telling us that it was old ivory, that it was legal for sale.
"We found others that were prepared to falsify documents to say that it was available for sale."
Most pipes are now made with modern materials replacing the ivory once used to decorate the drone.

(CNSNews.com) - America is in need of a new "Great Awakening" – an awakening that some Christian leaders say can only come about if Christians get on their knees.
"America right now is facing great complexities. We have a financial struggle that we're in, we're facing health-care issues that have us scratching our heads. Our place in the world has shifted. We're a nation that really needs help from beyond ourselves. We feel like God is the help," The Rev. William (Billy) Wilson told CNSNews.com.
Wilson, executive director of the International Center for Spiritual Renewal, is a member of the Awakening America Alliance, which is sponsoring "Cry Out America" on Friday, Sept. 11 -- an event calling for thousands of Christians to "gather at noon at county courthouses across the nation in repentance, to pray for the lost, to cry out for God to send another 'Great Awakening.'"
It is an awakening that can only come about if Christians "wake up" and unite in prayer, Wilson said.
"Part of what we're doing is calling for the American Church to wake up – and then to pray for a pervading -- and pervasive -- awakening in the nation that really brings truth and transformation," he added.
"Biblically, the Church has tended to go to sleep at precisely the wrong moment," Wilson said. "The disciples on Gethsemane slept through the night while Jesus was in prayer, and in the morning they simply were not ready for the pressures that came. And in many ways, the American church has been in a state of slumber."
America's decline in morality has been obvious, Wilson said, but there are now clear signs that American Christians are in need of a wake-up call.
"Statistics tell us, as of last year, on any given Sunday in the United States, only 17 percent of Americans attend church. That number continues to decline each year in America," he said.
"People would say that they are church-going, and a lot more than that would say that they attend church regularly, that's true – but on any given Sunday, only 17 percent of our population is in a local church. Only 9 percent of that is evangelical," the Protestant leader added.
Wilson said in the Christian community, divorce, abortion, teen sex, pregnancy outside marriage and addictions -- such as gambling or use of pornography -- all occur at rates that parallel national averages.
Statistics from pollster George Barna seem to bear that out. A 2004 Barna Research survey found that at a time when the national average for divorce was 33 percent – 26 percent of Evangelical Christians; 33 percent of non-Evangelical born-again Christians; 34 percent of mainline Protestants; 30 percent of atheists and 28 percent of Catholics had been divorced.
The prayer event is being held on 9/11 – but it is not designed solely to commemorate the tragic happenings of that day.
"When 9/11 happened we all were shaken in America -- there was a lot of prayer that went on that day and in subsequent weeks we were a nation that felt vulnerable at that point, we felt like we need help from beyond ourselves, so a lot of people prayed," Wilson said.
"Yet the reality is that 8 years later, we are more in need spiritually as a nation than we were on 9/11/ It is true that we have not had a terrorist attack recently on our shores, not a major one, at least – so people may have relaxed at least in that regard. Yet underneath, there is a growing remnant of Christian believers who realize that America's spiritual situation has become ever more desperate. So they are binding together, uniting together in prayer and there is a rising tide of prayer and intercession going on in the American church, which is a great sign for the possibilities of awakening."
"So really this is all about a bigger issue than just 9/11 and a moment of prayer. It's about the need for a new awakening in the United States."
In studying America's spiritual history, Wilson said Christian leaders have discovered that America has known great spiritual awakenings --and times of spiritual decline.
"For the last 20 to 30 years, America has been in a spiritual decline. That has happened before in American history, so it's not without hope spiritually," Wilson added.
The nation may already be under God's judgment, Wilson admitted.
"America has really pushed the edges of God's righteous law by some of the judgments that we've made," Wilson said. "The good news is that judgment sometimes precedes revival."
"One of the common denominators in every great awakening in America has been what Jonathan Edwards, who was a preacher in colonial America in the first Great Awakening, called 'united extraordinary prayer' – out of the ordinary, not your normal prayer meeting at church. So on 9/11, we will have a moment of united extraordinary prayer to seek God for a new spiritual awakening in the nation," Wilson told CNSNews.com.
Awakening is more than just "a good feeling," he said.
"It's more than just a few more people going to church, it's a deep transformation that says people have become aware of God in their daily lives and in their home life again – and God has invaded, pervaded society in a new way," Wilson said.
Wilson said the prayer event is not meant to compete with the annual National Day of Prayer observance in May or national prayer breakfasts.
Information about "Cry Out America" is available on the organization's Web site.

A 25W laser is more than enough for cutting acrylic of a sizable thickness.Ā Beyond this thickness, you have focusing problems that effect all lasers.

Cutting metal is not the best application for laser tools unless we spend SERIOUS money.Ā Metal is hard for laser cutting because when metal melts, it becomes very reflective.

Thanks for using the term 'laser engraver'.

 Does Epilog even sell laser cutters, or just laser engravers? ĀPerhaps
 everyone donating towards a 'laser cutter' should know that Epilog
 doesn't have any products (that I found listed on its website) that it
 states can cut through metal. ĀDoes everyone who's donating know that
 this thing won't cut unicorn horns out of turds?

 But then, I know next to nothing about laser cutting and engraving
 products. ĀOrganizing numbers and costs are what I know about: if
 laser cutters are between 5x and 10x more expensive, and Epilog's
 'most affordable' laser engraver is 7.3k$, then there is a large
 initial funding gap to fill. ĀBut why not get something more
 affordable than an Epilog brand laser engraver?

 Jon Foote recommended a couple specific devices last year during
 another discussion about getting a laser engraver/cutter device at
 Noisebridge. ĀSome people have offered to contribute a monthly value
 towards a cutter which is more meaningful for a device that requires
 large sums of funding for regular and unscheduled (breakdown)
 maintenance (these things break because they are fancy and delicate,
 but not intrinsically because 'Noisebridge Can't have Nice Things*').

 What are the fee systems for cutting time and materials at Techshop
 (do different materials require different cleanup, and who is the
 maintenance technician?), will there be training and defined hours of
 operation? ĀI am down with that. ĀCover the Techshop solutions during
 the meetup (or preferably here with international attention and
 responses), and people will take it seriously.

 One last thing: ĀI think you should consider dubbing the DJ Booth a
 Noisebridge Autonomous Zone, since I hear grumblings from a friend of
 constipating the procurement of ZOMGLASERCUTTERS.

 FOLK could CARE LESS about CUTTING THINGS WITH LASERS. ĀSeriously -1
 INT for anyone who blithely repeats that quote and doesn't know how to
 use a saw and a hammer, which are quite 'Nice Things'.

As kids of all ages head back to school this coming September, kids are incouraged to sign up for the most important school supply of all – a library card and meet Sherlock the Fox, East Central Regional Library's new mascot at the same time.
Sherlock will be at the Princeton Area Library at 2 p.m. on Monday, August 19. There will be a short program followed by an autograph and picture taking session with Sherlock. You can also enter a drawing to have a photo of you, your ECRL card and Sherlock posted on the American Library Association website. Kids of all ages are welcome to attend.
When it comes to achieving academic success, a library card provides kids and students with access to a world of both print and electronic resources.
East Central Regional Library's mission is connecting and strengthening communities through the power of knowledge.

Thanks, The M-plate on the bus says it should be pearl white, but my paint supplier didn't have the information to mix it according to colournumber, so he took a sample from the inside of the bus and mixed the paint to match that. But, i agree, even in real life this one comes very close to lotus white.
