text: Posted October 1, 2012 I would agree if they were not stacking 9 players in the box. At some point when the defense is daring you to pass by leaving the field wide open, you should take a shot. Or at the very least, don't run the wildcat. :( this is also true. I'm not a fan of the Wildcat either, I think its gimmicky and inefficient. Furthermore, Cam runs so well why we ever would take him from behind center is beyond me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spinal Meningitis
Spinal Meningitis is a disease that causes irritation and/or inflammation of the membranes (also known as meninges) in the nervous system. These membranes are present in the central nervous system to protect the brain and spinal cord. When the body is invaded by bacterial or viral meningitis the meninges are susceptible because there are no white blood cells in the cerebral spinal fluid. White blood cells are the immune system's major line of defence against infection. The disease is contagious and can be very serious with long-lasting damage to the brain, central nervous system, and the rest of the body occurring in some cases.
Spinal Meningitis Statistics
Every year approximately 3000-5000 people in the US contract bacterial meningitis, the more aggressive form of the disease, with 20-25% of those cases resulting in death. If the disease progresses rapidly over 24hrs then the fatality figure is closer to 50%. The number of people contracting viral meningitis is difficult to establish as it may be dismissed as influenza by some patients and they recover fully without recourse to treatment from a physician. That is not to say that the viral form of the disease is harmless as it can also cause chronic debilitation and death in some people.
Affects of Meningitis
Many people do recover with no long-term damage, but these are usually cases where the meningitis infection was caught and treated early. Some of the long-term effects of meningitis include loss of hearing, impairment of cognitive function (the ability to think and learn), necessary amputation of the limbs, blindness, paralysis, and seizures. Initial symptoms to watch out for are stiffness of the neck, with an inability to touch the chin to the chest, a rash which does not disappear when glass is pressed against it, headaches, light sensitivity, seizures, excessive sleepiness, vomiting and nausea, and lack of thirst or hunger. There are numerous other symptoms of meningitis to watch out for and it is important to be aware of those symptoms that can manifest in children who cannot communicate their symptoms, and are at particular risk of long-term impairment from the disease.
Bacterial and Fungal Spinal Meningitis
Most cases are viral or bacterial in nature, but the disease can be caused by fungal infection and other microorganisms along with certain types of cancer, head injury, other illnesses, and medication reactions. Vaccinations do exist that may protect against the bacterial form of meningitis, and the pneumonia vaccine may also provide some level of protection against the disease. Treatment for viral meningitis is usually home-care with the use of pain relievers and medication to reduce any fever. Antibiotics do not work on this type of meningitis and simple rest and recuperation means that most people recover fully from viral meningitis. Bacterial meningitis however requires immediate treatment with antibiotics injected intravenously and close monitoring of the patient. Steroid injections may also be given to alleviate inflammation, and if the disease progresses the patient may require a breathing tube to be inserted and possible catheterisation. Antibiotic treatment may be commenced prior to the exact diagnosis being given so as to not lose time in the case of an aggressive disease progression. Viral meningitis requires a spinal tap test and the results take time to process, which can delay treatment and significantly effect outcome if the infection turns out to be bacterial. Those diagnosed with viral meningitis and sent home should still be monitored and return for another check-up in two days.

Have a Tax Question? Ask a Tax Expert
Hello and thank you for using Just Answer,Sorry another expert was able to lock me out of your request till now.The 401k will be taxable to you when you start receiving it. Your contributions were not taxed when you made them so even when you give up your green card they will be taxable at that time.A nonresident alien must include 85% of any U.S. social security benefit (and the social security equivalent part of a tier 1 railroad retirement benefit) in U.S. source fixed or determinable annual or periodic income. Social security benefits include monthly retirement, survivor, and disability benefits. This income is exempt under some tax treaties. The Greece/US treaty lists Social Security as 30%.
Robin thank you for the answer
You are welcome
Please do not forget, rating the assistance is a very important part of Just Answer. Just Answer uses positive ratings and the follow up survey to ensure that experts are available for assisting and answering questions.
To understnd better I do not loose the social security benefits but a portion of the monthly payments will be taxable in the US (depending on the tax treaty with Greece) and I will be able to receive them living in Greece?
You can apply for the Social Security payments. That is outside of the tax area but if you are aid US Social Security then you will be taxed on those payments at a 30% rate. The 401K too will be taxable when you take the money out. Look to this link for info about being outside the US and social security benefitshttp://www.socialsecurity.gov/pubs/10137.html#a0=4
Thank you again for the answer I just wanted to be clear that giving up the green card does not change your eligibility for social security payments
Not by itself, from what I saw on the SSA site, but again that is not a tax question so I gave you the actaul authority to go to directly (SSA).
On a more tax related questions
I am thinking of relinquishing my green card and file form 8854 before the end of this year
The taxes I will file for 2012 will be for two periods as a resident and a non resident
How do I know what period I file as a resident and what as a non resident
Also next year I will continue to have income from a US source and possible from outside the US
I assume I have to file 1040NR for 2013 for my US source income and continue to file every year that I have a US source income? (like 401 k and social security)
What about form 8854 I only have to file once?
Thast is correct, you would use the 1040NR from when you are no longer a US person. Yes, on the 8854. If you are not a covered expatriate then you need file that once.
Thank you
CHAT has been having some problems today. Let me knowif you can not rate
I will not a US person anymore when IRS acknowledges receipt for 8854 or when I mail it
Tthe date of your termination of residency will be the LATER of the date you notify the Department of Homeland Security or the date Form 8854 is filed with the IRS in accordance with the instructions for the form. If that is in the middle of a year you may have to file both resident 1040 and nonresident 1040NR splitting the income for both in that last year.
Great thanks one more clarification
Glad to help
For my case that I will try to do both by year end 2012, how do I split the days between 1040 and 1040NR not knowing when IRS actually receives the form 8854
If you file at the end of the year and you also surrender the green card by then, you would list the income fo rthe tax year on the 1040 as a resident. The dual residency would apply if you did it all (let's say mid year) and also physically left the US and continued to receive US sourced income.
Generally, if you surrender your green card during the taxable year, your tax status as a resident alien will terminate on the last day of that calendar year. BUT, if you can establish that you left the US and had a closer connection to the other country then you would go by the date you left.
You release me when you rate
sorry to continue asking you on this but I got a but confused here If i manage to give up the card and file for 8854 by dec 10th 2012 i will file 1040 for the whole year 2012 or till dec 10th and then 1040nr for the last 20 day of 2012?
The whole year of 2012 would be 1040
Hope that clears it up
Sorry for the delay one last question when do I stop filling FBAR froms?
When you are no longer a US person. If you are not a covered expat (based on the income) as you stated then you would not need to file a FBAR after 2012 (provided that is your last year for resdiency).
Great thank you very much you have been very helpful

Fatal Accident Summaries
for 2009
June 19, 2009
A 21 year-old Marine drowned while swimming with friends in a long-abandoned quarry in Quincy, Massachusetts.
Quincy police and firefighters, State Police and the Coast Guard launched a search at 2 a.m. They reportedly received a call from a group of people who said they had been swimming in a quarry and that one of their friends had disappeared in the water.
The body was recovered at 6:20 a.m.
The quarries were for decades popular swimming holes for local teens. They claimed more than a dozen lives from 1960 to 1998.

Is the price of movie tickets falling? Of course not. It may not look that way in 3Q: The average amount that consumers spent was $7.94, down from $8.06 in 2Q, the National Association of Theatre Owners reports today. But the numbers tend to bounce around from quarter to quarter, due in part to whether there are 3D films compelling enough to lead consumers to pay up for the higher-priced tickets. Last quarter was light, although it included Warner Bros' Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows Part 2 and Disney's The Lion King 3D. The pricing picture becomes clearer when you step back to look at averages over time: The average for the first nine months of 2011 is $7.96, up 1% from all of 2010 and 6% from 2009. Regal also recently reported that its average ticket price was $8.78 in 3Q, up 1.9% vs the same period last year.
Movie Ticket Prices Are Up, But People Spent Less In 3Q For 3D
7 Comments
wait, i thought piracy was hurting ticket sales and killing the industry (not to mention funding violent gangs). what happened?
Dear Studio Suits:
Audiences have realized that 3D is merely a gimmick used to try and lure us into the theater and to pay more for the privelege of watching your latest epic.
But audiences are also wise to your trickery. 3D doesn't make an average or poor movie better (example: "The Three Musketeers 3D") and it doesn't work as an add-on to a movie previously shot in 2D (example: "The Last Airbender", also a poor film).
With the economy continuing to be lackluster, don't complain about "soft box office revenues" when you put poorly-conceived product in the theater, then charge more for it (with a premium for 3D).
In 2010 and 2011, there have been countless examples of hyped-up movies that failed at the box office. From "The A-Team" to "Green Hornet" to "Green Lantern" to the aforementioned "Three Musketeers 3D", and many many others. They have severla elements in common, not the least of which is that many are reboots, reimaginings, or a revivial of a 1960's/1970's/1980's title that no one was clamoring for.
The Harry Potter series raked in over $12 billion for all of its films. Does that not tell you the power of using creative and original plots? Give audiences a reason to go to the theater, not a reason to avoid it and watch it in 3 months on our flat-screens or iPads.
The real question is how many tickets are being sold. If it's true, as has been reported, that admissions are in their fourth year of decline, one wonders what exhibitors will do to bring people back to theaters.
Raising prices in a depression won't help. Selling expensive junk food might be profitable but is scarcely an audience draw. Same goes for the pre-show crap: the exhibitors are taking in money from them but alienating customers (those 20 minutes used to be a great time to talk to my wife: no longer!).
Sooner or later even the exhibitors will realize that they can't make money if there's no-one there.
Who can afford to see a 3-d movie anymore. Took my wife,mother-in-law and two children to see a movie at a theater in Cumberland County N.J.Paid $11 ea for 3 adult tickets and $ 8 for 2 children tickets. Add to this $3.50 ea for 3-d glasses ….Total Admission $ 50.50. Concession cost was $ 38.00…….GRAND TOTAL $ 88.50. Who can afford
to take your family to the movies. I WILL WAIT FOR THE BLU-RAY.
the 3-D phenom has been destroyed by shmaltzy movies that have no business in 3D.. it used to be a joy , something to look forward too but now they even have 3D commercials..the thrill is gone..
location, location, location. Or in this aspect – content, content, content.
The Movies that are being released are crap. I don't care who is making money from them and the online revenue and the dvd sales, the stuff is crap.
Back in 2006-2008 I went to the movies EVERY WEEK and dropped about $60 a time on it.
I will pay $20 a ticket for a GREAT movie. The whole industry has had an aneurism.
I swear, if I hear one more person complain about movie theaters, I'm going to shove my fist up thier dickhole. Why does everyone on this website bitch and moan like a whiny baby when they hate something?

I re-stage found images from the '40s, '50s and '60s most often using myself as the model – making most of the costumes and props. I place myself in the past as a way of understanding the present. After becoming the character(s) in an image I write an accompanying autobiographical story. The choosing of the original photograph and the writing done after is completely intuitive. The space in-between is what interests me: story and image, past and present, truth and fiction.
DAY Magazine is my second publication made in this fashion.

I highly recommend the UK 2-CD compilation Sweet Talkin' Girls on Stateside (an EMI subsidiary). It's a 50-song wonder that blows all those cheapie 10-song bargain bin hack jobs out of the water. I found one for $14 on Amazon, from a Marketplace dealer (it appears to be at least $30 elsewhere).

Centuria Capital has shaped its latest property investment fund to address many of the investor concerns emerging from the financial crisis.
The Centuria 8 Australia Avenue Fund will hold an office building in the Sydney Olympic Park precinct that was recently bought for $30.15 million.
The prospectus sets out many of the financial details that went unnoticed prior to the crisis, such as loan covenant, loan maturity date and the interest cover covenant.
More importantly, Centuria has reduced the voting threshold needed to be replaced as responsible entity to just 35 per cent.
(From experience, Centuria knows how hard it is to replace an under-performing manager.)
Lonsec has rated the fund Recommended (Upper End).
In its report Lonsec said the fund had "good to excellent all-round performance potential".
The chief executive of Centuria Property Funds, Jason Huljich, said the Lonsec rating confirmed the team's ability to pick quality properties and the rigour of Centuria's investment process.
"The Centuria 8 Australia Avenue Fund is the perfect example of Centuria Property Funds identifying opportunities in the market and then using our well-established capabilities and the strength within the team to capitalise on them,'' he said.
"We agree with Lonsec that the property market has good growth prospects, particularly in the office sector."
The 8 Australia Avenue property is fully leased.
Lonsec estimated that over the long term, the Centuria 8 Australian Avenue Fund would provide a total return of around 10.6 per cent a year.
Mr Hulich said that if Centuria did not perform, the fund had a reduced hurdle for unitholders to change the manager.
"This is one of the ways in which we differ from other property fund managers,'' he said.

Artistically baffling Canadian band shakes it up on 'UZU'
Yamantaka//Sonic Titan (Suicide Squeeze)
This face-painted, elaborately costumed, artistically baffling Canadian band left an indelible mark with its excellent debut "YT//ST," so much so that it's been reissued multiple times since it dropped in 2011. But what the band has come up with on "UZU" has to shake up even its most ardent fans.
That's not meant in a bad way. It's just that "UZU" is such a huge artistic burst from Yamantaka//Sonic Titan's debut that I wonder if there are boundaries that could possibly confine this band. The record sprawls over an incredibly dramatic, catchy 10 tracks, offering electronic pulses, prog-style rock magic, fiery distortion, and the soaring vocals of Ruby Kato Attwood. The peaks are the unreal psyche damage of "Hall of Mirrors"; dramatic storyteller "Whalesong"; the chaotic, bombastic rock of the dual "Seasick" cuts; and the cosmic exploration of "Saturn's Return," which should enthrall experimental music fans and those who just love sweeping beauty. This band should be headlining gigantic music halls, and hopefully this great record gets it there.
Yamantaka//Sonic Titan play an all-ages show at the Smiling Moose Saturday night at 7. Tickets are $12 in advance, $14 at the door.
Russian Circles (Sargent House)
The fifth record from Chicago instrumental rockers Russian Circles is their heaviest, most aggressive to date, and while they've never been outright categorized as metal before, they probably can be on "Memorial."
These eight cuts are tumultuous, boiling, lava-splashed, and outright aggressive, and even on a quieter cut such as the album-closing title track, which features the haunting vocals of Chelsea Wolfe, you still should find yourself feeling utterly unsettled. Other selections, such as opener "Memoriam," "1777," and "Burial," will render your mind battered, your ears will bleed, and you will have no choice but to genuflect to Russian Circles' absolute power. This is their best record yet.
'Black Tar Prophecies Vol's 4, 5 & 6'
Grails (Temporary Residence)
Portland, Ore., instrumental agitators Grails are prolific, mysterious, and hard to keep track of because it seems like they're always creating something bizarre. On this new collection of work from its "Black Tar Prophecies" series, the band shows even more reasons why it's so fun to follow and menacing to embrace.
Starting with the chilling, eerie "I Want a New Drug" (NOT a cover of the Huey Lewis song), they use a haunting sample of "No One Knows the Trouble I've Seen" as a spooky lead-in that only builds from there, from the Allman Brothers meets space horror "Self-Hypnosis," to wormhole madness of "Wake Up Drill II" that stirs and shakes you, to psyche-washed folk of "Chariots." If you didn't catch these selections as they were released the past few years, Grails have your back. Just keep watching behind it for when they sneak up on you again.

|Bears challenge No. 21 Campbell
|From Staff Reports
Jan. 6, 2007 - SULPHUR BLUFF - Ball control and a 2-3 zone defense aided the Sulphur Bluff Bears in controlling the score and pace of the game through the first half, but a lay-up at the third quarter buzzer changed the course of the game Friday night as the Campbell Indians fought back to pick up their fourth win in District 22-A, Division II play, 53-44.
From the opening tip, Sulphur Bluff (7-12, 2-3) looked in control of the game by scoring five unanswered points and Campbell (12-5, 4-1) missed its first six shots at the bucket.
The Bear's Merced Rodriguez was hot from the outside hitting three of his four 3-pointers in the first quarter. The senior led the Bears in scoring with 16 on the night. The Indians finally got on the board with 3:12 left in the quarter, managing only six points in the eight-minute effort.
In the first 30-seconds of the second quarter, Sulphur Bluff junior Gerardo Rodriguez hit his first of three 3-pointers for the night ,adding to the Bears' lead. In 23 seconds, that trey was answered by Campbell senior Justin Hebert as Campbell shooters began to find the basket, chipping away at the lead.
A full-court press in the final two minutes of the half, capped by a bucket at the buzzer (Indian Clayton Crowder's only one of the night) moved Campbell to within 28-22.
The Bears scored the first four points of the third quarter and Campbell did not manage a bucket during the first two and a half minutes. However, the Indians settled into a ball-control rhythm and utilized a man-to-man defense more in the second half. Sulphur Bluff led 35-32 with 1:15 remaining in the third, but a 6-3 last minute scoring frenzy ended with a lay-up at the buzzer by Campbell senior Justin Burden tying the game for the first time, 38-38. Burden led Indian scoring with 28 points for the night.
Campbell Coach Gary Felmet said the Indians have become a second-half team in the last four or five games as they have tumbled from 12th to 21st in the Texas coaches' poll.
Sulphur Bluff managed only six points in the fourth quarter as Campbell poured in 10 free throws along with a 3-pointer and a short jumper to score 15. Campbell spread the court going into a semi-stall game with 5:42 left in the game. The Bears scored only once after that. Campbell Coach Felmet praised the defensive work of seventh man Justin Gustafson who was in and out of the game throughout the night.
Sulphur Bluff first-year Coach Jarrett Wilson praised the play of his young team. Wilson, who took over the boys program along with coaching the Lady Bears, said his team is learning a new system this season. The Bears start two seniors, a junior, a sophomore and a freshman.
Wilson called his team a 3-point shooting squad that has "gotten better out of the man offense." Twenty-one of the Bears' 44 points came from 3's. All seven 3-pointers came from the combined effort of senior Merced and junior Gerardo Rodriguez.

Good defense and ball handling were not enough for the Sulphur Bluff Lady Bears in their 53-26 loss to the Campbell Lady Indians.
The game was never in doubt after the second minute of play. Sulphur Bluff managed only 13 points in the first half while the Lady Indians counted 24.
�Sulphur Bluff did a great job controlling the tempo of the game at the start,� Campbell coach Steve Guffey said. That forced his Lady Indians out of their man defense into a trapping defense to produce a few more opportunities. For the Lady Indians, Jessica Parker tallied 17 points followed by Britney Hass with 13.� � �
Lady Bear coach Wilson, who starts two freshmen, says his young team is learning. A number of shots fell errant during the evening for the Lady Bears. Helena Wall led Lady Bear scoring with 9.

How can you resist these? Clearly I couldn't…
When I saw the orange tulips and Trader Joe's I just KNEW which tablecloth they would go with. This is a gorgeous deco-inspired piece, possibly from the 40's. It just demanded the orange and red Fiesta with the green as an accent.
Of course, along with the red Fiesta had to go red bakelite silverware. I'm finding this everywhere right now, and don't hesitate to buy if it isn't perfect. Many of these sets ended up at people's summer cabins or weekend retreats. Some have scratches, some were washed with harsh detergents in the dish washer. As long as the piece is sound (metal parts not loose, no pieces missing), you like them AND they are reasonably priced, take a chance. For a dollar or two a piece you can have some fun.
The duck creamer and sugar are from a Donald Duck kids tea set. I've never seen the tea pot, which is a much larger duck, in person but it gives me something to look for at the flea markets. It's always good to have a goal : ) The glasses are part of a pitcher/glass set, the frosted orange and green are yummy here. Orange has never been high on my list of colors to buy but I have to say, its moving on up! The napkins are vintage from our favorite tablecloth lady at the Alameda Flea Market.
Here's an up close shot of the center of the border, very deco! Love the red 'brick' border!
And yes, there was an assistant again today:
Ashton kitty! I guess since he's orange, and many things on the table were orange, he felt he was the perfect accessory : )
Tomorrow: It's berry time!
354 Days to go!!

Michelle Lesniak Franklin, Patricia Michaels and Stanley Hudson battle it out for the champion title in the finale which sees the return of former full-time judge Michael Kors.
"Project Runway" has wrapped out it 11th season, which Tim Gunn said his "favorite season ever," with the finale aired on Thursday, April 25. Michael Kors returned as a judge to help decide which one of Michelle Lesniak Franklin, Patricia Michaels and Stanley Hudson deserved to be the winner.
All three finalists showcased their collections at Lincoln Center during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York City. Michelle fascinated the judges with her "Pacific Northwest geek-chic" style, which incorporated various fabrics and made her creations very wearable.
The Portland-based designer was ultimately declared the winner as judge Zac Posen said, "Michelle did real clothing and a real fashion show." She took home the $100,000 prize money, the Lexus GS 350 and the fashion spread in Marie Claire.
Michelle's win might surprise some as she almost gave up in the competition. She admitted that when she was given a "do-or-die moment" in lieu of being sent home, she "asked to quit." She shared, "I really did. I couldn't believe what I was passionate about was so terrible compared with what was up on runway. I was ready to give up. I was in a dark place." The producers, however, convinced her "to think this through" and a few hours later, she's back on the game.
Having gone through the emotional moment, 34-year-old Michelle is now more optimistic. "If I can get through all of these challenges in the most emotionally and phsycially demanding runway of my life, I really can do anything I set my mind to," she said. "I can really tackle every mountain that lies ahead of me."

Concordia's Meaningful Work Mentor Program connects students with career professionals, including alumni, employers, and other friends of Concordia, for career exploration, professional networking, and personal growth. By matching students with professionals who have life and work experience in a similar field, job function or industry of interest, students are given a great opportunity to explore careers and gain valuable advice. They also have the opportunity to witness how career integrates with the other aspects of life. Our goal at the end of a mentoring adventure is that Concordia students, alumni or partners are both enriched by a transformational learning experience.
The Partnership
- A match based on career interests, field of study, and/or professional development interest.
- A customized M.A.P. (Mentoring Action Plan) with well-defined goals to accomplish during the partnership.
- A communication plan that includes frequency and means of meetings (phone, email, or virtual space).
The Duration
Student and mentor will choose a duration depending on the goals of the partnership. Some suggestions are:
|One Year
|Calendar or academic, usually 3 semesters (fall, spring, and summer)
|A partnership where the mentee sets 3 or more professional goals and detailed learning activities that will reach the goals. The mentor provides advice and expertise to guide the student toward successful completion of the goals.
|15-16 weeks, usually over a single semester
|Similar to the one year trek, but establishes goals that can be accomplished in a shorter time period.
|1 month
|Focused on a few specific activities such as informational interviews, completing a resume, preparing for job interviews, or exploring a specific company or industry.
|Job Shadow
|3-5 days
|An exploration of a company or profession where the student accompanies an alum at work to observe the day-to-day activities of a particular job.
The Goals
The Center facilitates the match and helps the student and mentor develop a mentoring action plan (M.A.P.), which will address goals. The partnership's learning agreement serves as the communication plan and expectations of the partnership.
Applications are accepted throughout the calendar year. There are no special academic requirements for students to apply. Mentors are required to pass a criminal background check prior to being matched with a student mentee.

Engineering students turning vintage MGB into electric car
The year was 1984. Roger Dougal, a newly minted Ph.D. in electrical engineering, was beginning his career in the University of South Carolina's College of Engineering.
He was the new owner of a 1972 MGB – a red convertible, perfect for life in the Palmetto State, where he could zip along the highways and city streets with the car's top down practically year-round. Lightweight with easy handling, the MGB was a snazzy roadster for a young professor on the go.
But that was, shall we say, soooo last century.
Fast forward about two dozen years. Now internationally recognized for his research on power sources and systems, Dougal still loves cars and has added a passion for sailboats. The MGB was collecting dust – and a few leaves – in his garage. But the professor's ongoing curiosity about all things auto and electrical meant one thing: He had to find out if he could build an electric car.
"I've always played with cars as a hobby," said Dougal , who has a touch of gray in his hair as the years have rolled on. "I bought the car to rebuild it, but just ran out of time. I decided to do something useful."
He took the car out of retirement and turned it over to electrical engineering students at the University of South Carolina's College of Engineering and Computing. He gave them the opportunity to turn the British Leyland Motor Corp. vehicle into a car of the 21st century – a car not run on "petrol," but electricity.
And they have. The "Electric MG," as it's called, is a reality.
"It can go really fast for short distances," said Dougal, who estimates that about $10,000 has been spent in making the changes.
About 15 students have worked on the car since Dougal began the great experiment, which has left some MGB fans aghast. But the professor was determined to create an electric vehicle in the machine shop of the College of Engineering and Computing.
"I said, 'We can do this before GM can,' " said Dougal, who estimates that he and several groups of students have worked on the project for about 18 months. "It didn't move along quite as fast as I'd planned. When you think about how many people are working at the major auto manufacturers, we've probably made pretty good progress."
But much of the student ingenuity and labor was volunteered. Some students have received course credit for their work. A few have received payment.
Tyler Price, a senior from Lexington, is one of the students working on the car, which has had the convertible top removed and a roll bar added.
The original engine is in Dougal's garage and has been replaced by an AC motor with a custom driveshaft. In its place is a bank of more than 100 supercapacitors, resembling soft drink cans that have been encased in a plastic box and loaded into the trunk for the power source. A lithium battery will be added later and coupled with the supercapacitor bank to improve range and efficiency.
"The changes take the car from one century to another," said Price. "Like all projects, it's been an evolution."
The experience has shown Price that electric vehicles can be a reality.
"I believe we're doing something that will be used. We're ahead of the curve. Only a few universities are doing what we've done," he said.
The car will be on display Saturday, Sept. 12, from 8:30 a.m. – 2:30 p.m. at the Carolina British Classics III show at Fort Jackson's Weston Lake. The show is sponsored by the British Car Club Midlands Centre.
Visitors to the show should keep in mind that the car is waiting on some modifications, including a paint job, LED lamps to replace the headlights, a sports windshield and new carpet. Because it's electric, the car sounds much like a golf cart. The students want to add acoustics to give the MGB-EV, as they call it, a sound more closely resembling a car.
Nevertheless, the car can be driven – just not on a highway yet, Price said.
Dougal and the student team, which includes undergraduate Robbie Motte of Bonneau and graduate student Steven Kowski of St. Petersburg, Fla., are looking forward to testing it for speed, acceleration and economy.
"This was a famous British sports car back in its day," said Price, who wasn't born when Dougal acquired the car. "Now, it will have some fame in another century."
The "converted" convertible
- Who: Roger Dougal, professor of electrical engineering, and some of his students
- What: Upfitting his 1972 MGB with an electric engine.

"An album that you can be proud of doesn't result from the ability to see your destination."
October 1 will mark not only the beginning of UTG's favorite month but the release of The Como Brothers' full-length debut, Baby Steps. Blending elements of pop and blues influenced from the likes of The Beatles and John Mayer, these New York-based brothers couldn't be more proud to finally release this 12-track effort for the world to experience.
Andrew Como took some time to speak with us about the upcoming album as well as how he and his brother differ in writing, their time working with Dan Gluszak and Casey Crsecenzo, and what their future plans entail. Read through the break and get familiar with The Como Brothers!
I get the feeling that music has always been a part of your lives. Would you say that you two were influenced from a young age to get involved with music?
Growing up we watched our Dad and uncles jam together at family parties. We really wanted to be part of it, and that was a big influence as to why we picked up instruments in the first place. From a young age, our parents encouraged and paid for music lessons. Matt and I started to take piano lessons, and after a couple of years I took up the alto and tenor saxophone for school band. I started playing guitar in 6th grade, and Matt picked it up later on. I still remember the first song I learned to play was "Like a Rolling Stone" by Bob Dylan, and the first riff I learned was "Day Tripper" by The Beatles. After that I was hooked.
When did you two officially start making music together as a band?
We were in and out of bands in high school, but it was mostly cover material. As The Como Brothers Band, we started writing and playing original material in 2010. Everything that has happened since then culminates into what is now our first full length album, Baby Steps.
Would you say that you two are very similar in terms of ideas and personality or are you complete opposites? And how do you think this dynamic affects the way you create together?
I wouldn't say we're complete opposites, but we definitely have our differences both as writers and in our personalities. In terms of personality, generally speaking, Matt looks at life in a more straight up way; at the end of the day, everything in the left column should balance out with the right. He's more of a realist and believes that an outcome is the direct result of precisely what you put into something. I, on the other hand, am more of an optimist. I tend to believe that sometimes things can be stacked in your favor and that it's all going to work out. I believe our personalities really shine through our writing styles. Matt has a darker feel to his writing, while I write with a more wide-eyed hopefulness. I think this really gives our songs and catalog a lot of perspective because it's not just one person's take on a series of life events. Our contrasting outlooks helped to give a more even-keeled overall tone to our first full length.
The awesome part about all of it is that, when it comes to actually sitting down and writing together, we're both very flexible and open-minded. For example, even though I might not agree with Matt's notion that the world is going to end tomorrow, we both gained the ability to play devil's advocate and strap on each other's mindset long enough to finish a song and complete an idea.
On the other hand, sometimes our differing views can help redirect a song completely. In our song "Hang My Head," Matt sings of hardships and reasons to be down in life. He didn?t have a bridge for the song before the studio and was stuck, so he asked me if I could put something down. The last line of the bridge I wrote is, "I'll never love you in a game like that. Now I'm writing the rules. Never blue." Or in other words, no one's going to decide how I feel one way or another, and that I can make my own positive reality. The bridge ended up turning the song into something uplifting for the final chorus.
Are there any specific people or bands that you feel have inspired you to a point that their influence is apparent in your sound?
Oh, absolutely. As far as song writing goes, The Beatles have always been a huge influence. John Mayer has also been a very big influence both in songwriting and in our playing. He's the reason I picked up a Strat and is why Matt and I are so aware of all the old blues legends. A lot of our songs are guitar and riff driven, and I believe a lot of that came from Mayer.
I've never been to New York personally but I get a sense of the city in your music, as odd as that may sound. Do you feel that New York has played a big role in your work?
Well, I think that being someone from New York gives you a sense that you're part of something larger than yourself. The message our music gives off is one that transcends Matt and I personally. Although we're singing and writing about our personal experiences, we hope that our songs are relatable and big enough that someone else can hold what we're saying to be true. I think the New York you're hearing in our music is our self-awareness in relation to how we affect others and how others are affecting us.
So let's talk Baby Steps. It's your first full-length record. Is it everything you wanted and intended it to be?
It's not everything we intended it to be, but it's definitely everything we want it to be. In the studio, a lot of things change from your original vision. There are two songs on the album in particular, "Late Nights" and "Only Me," that sound completely different now than from when they were originally recorded. We scrapped both original versions of the songs and completely rebooted them, and looking back, it was completely necessary. An album that you can be proud of doesn't result from the ability to see your destination. Matt and I found that a fulfilling album is the result of making good and smart choices along the way. A lot of curve balls are thrown in the studio, and not everything turns out how you initially intended. However, you have to trust your bandmates, engineer, and producer in steering the ship around the whirlpool.
What was your goal for this record when you began writing and recording it, in terms of what you wanted to portray and accomplish for yourselves.
We wanted to make an album that was as accessible as it was relatable. The topics of the songs are very universal. There's nothing on there that will cause anyone to say, "Well, I really have no idea what they're trying to tell me." Everything is pretty straightforward, and that's exactly how we wanted it to be. We wanted to write a pop album, but on our own terms. Every song on the album was written with a pop sensibility. We tried to be as melodic and artistic as we were economical and logical with every section of every song.
You had some pretty impressive help with production and musicianship as well. What can you tell us about that?
Our producer Mike Watts (As Tall As Lions, The Dear Hunter, Brand New) is good friends with Dan Gluszak (Envy on the Coast, Times of Grace, Heavy English). Before the album, we were looking for a guy on the drums to do the songs justice, and Mike told us we had to use Dan. We were so glad that we did because the man is incredible. He brought the songs to a different level and gave them life. For someone to be so good but to have such restraint and foresight is really refreshing to experience. The guy really understands playing for the song, and I think that it's evident on the album.
Someone else that we're very grateful to have on the album is lead singer of The Dear Hunter, Casey Crescenzo. He was recording his latest album, Migrant, at VuDu Studios while we were there recording Baby Steps. We saw him often while recording, and he passed through during the session for "Late Nights" and "Chasing Ambience." He ended up tracking Mellotron Strings on "Late Nights" and Fender Rhodes on "Chasing Ambience." He's a super talented dude, and we were very happy to have someone so accomplished on a couple of our tracks.
Other than Casey obviously, Why did you choose those guys in particular?
We chose to work with Mike Watts, owner of VuDu Studios, to record the album because he was our producer for our previous two EPs and were really happy with how they came out. We initially were interested in working with Mike because we loved how the As Tall As Lions self-titled album came out. We were fans of ATAL before we even knew of Mike.
We've also worked with our other producer and engineer, Tom Flynn, since The Speed of Sound days. That guy knows what the hell is up. It's like he read my mind every single time I wanted a particular sound or guitar tone for the album. Tom and Mike also directed/shot/edited/produced our music videos for the two singles off of the album, "Straight Face" and "Late Nights."
We also felt honored to have Steven Haigler (The Pixes, Brand New, Fuel, As Tall As Lions) master the entire album. The guys at VuDu Studios are all extremely talented, and we love working with them.
The album cover is perfect. I'm assuming that's actually you guys? Sweet TMNT sweater by the way.
Thanks! Yup that's us. Ninja Turtles sweater and all. I believe Matt is age 5 in that picture, and I'm 3. That was back during the beginning of the piano lesson days. I'm glad you like it though. We thought it was an awesome picture that tied in with the album theme. We wanted to show that we don't take ourselves too seriously.
So any touring plans in support of the album? And would Gluszak be on the road with you?
We'll definitely be playing all over the Long Island, Brooklyn, and Manhattan in the immediate future (check our website schedule for dates!). As far as touring goes, we're in the process of looking into touring the northeast as well as the college circuit. We'd love to hit the road all year across the country — but the reality of finding a way to do it is where we are at now. Our drummer right now is Jeremy Scalchunes. He actually grew up with Gluszak, and they're best friends ironically enough. Jeremy was recently telling us that they taught each other a lot about drumming. He was saying they used to set up two kits facing each other and would just go back and forth for hours. Jeremy is a beast! We're excited to have him on board.
What's the next big goal for the brothers?
The next big goal is to get Baby Steps into the ears of as many listeners as humanly possible through live shows, promotion, etc. That being said, we always have one eye on what's happening and the other on what's next. Matt and I have been writing a load of songs for what will be our sophomore album.
Lastly, what are you two going to be for Halloween this year?
Well now that you mention it, being two Italian brothers, we really should be Mario and Luigi. However, now that the album cover's out, I think it would be a huge let down if we were anything other than the Ninja Turtles. Thanks for the awesome interview!

Type of Document Master's Thesis Author Whitner, Richard B. URN etd-11212012-040014 Title A taxonomical review of software verification techniques :an illustration using discrete-event simulation Degree Master of Science Department Computer Science Advisory Committee
Advisor Name Title Balci, Osman Committee Chair Nance, Richard E. Committee Member Tew, Jeffrey D. Committee Member Keywords
- Software engineering
Date of Defense 1988-10-15 Availability restricted Abstract
The use of simulation and modeling as a technique for solving today's complex problems is ever-increasing. Correspondingly, the demands placed on the software which serves as a computer-executable representation of the simulation model are increasing. With the increased complexity of simulation models comes a greater need for model verification, particularly programmed model verification. Unfortunately, current model verification technology is lacking in techniques which satisfy the verification needs. Specifically, there are few guidelines for performing programmed model verification. There is, however, an abundance of software verification techniques which are applicable for simulation model verification. An extensive review of techniques applicable for simulation programmed model verification is presented using the simulation and modeling terminology. A taxonomy for programmed model verification methods is developed. The usefulness of the taxonomy is twofold: (1) the taxonomy provides an approach for applying software verification techniques to the problem of programmed model verification, and (2) the breadth of the taxonomy provides a broad spectrum of perspectives from which to assess the credibility of simulation results. A simulation case study demonstrates the usefulness of the taxonomy and some of the verification techniques.
By referencing this work, one can determine what, and when, techniques can be used throughout the development life cycle. He will know how to perform each technique, how difficult each will be to apply, and how effective the technique will be. The simulation modeler - as well as the software engineer — will find the taxonomy and techniques valuable tools for guiding verification efforts.

Of all the influences in the life of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, little attention has been paid to the Reverend John E. Brooks. During his time at Holy Cross and in the years since, the Jesuit priest has been, in Thomas' words, "a combination of friend, uncle, priest, father, saint, Good Samaritan." In this exclusive interview with BusinessWeek senior writer Diane Brady, Thomas reflects on racial politics, his job, his college crowd, and the influence of Brooks on his life. Here are edited excerpts of their conversation:

What You Need to Know About AAPL's iOS 7.1 Update: Bug Fixes
Ever heard of the "white screen of death"?
If you own an AAPL iPhone running iOS 7 and you let your battery level get down to 40%, there's a decent chance you haven't just heard of it, you've experienced the crash. The iOS 7.1 update fixes this particularly annoying bug.
Also squashed is a problem where the iPhone 5s Touch ID sensor would forget your fingerprint. That should be motivation enough to download the iOS update.

Answerer knew. But he had to be asked the proper questions first.
The proper questions. The race which built Answerer should have taken that into account, Answerer thought. They should
have made some allowance for nonsense.
Eighteen creatures came to Answerer, neither walking nor flying, but simply appearing. Shivering in the cold glare of the stars, they looked up at the massiveness of Answerer.
"If there is no distance," one asked, "Then how can things be in other places?"
Answerer knew what distance was, and what places were. But he couldn't answer the question. There was distance, but not as these creatures saw it. And there were places, but in a different fashion from that which the creatures expected. "Rephrase the question," Answerer said hopefully. "Why," another asked, "Is there a rule of eighteen? Why, when eighteen gather, is another produced?"
But of course the answer was part of another, greater question, which hadn't been asked.
"We made it," Morran said.
"Let's get on," Lingman said. He didn't want to waste any time. He didn't have any time to waste.
"Right," Morran said. They walked together, along the dark path of the planet that was different from all other planets, soaring alone around a sun different from all other suns.
"Up here," Morran said. The legends were explicit. A path, leading to stone steps. Stone steps to a courtyard. And then - the Answerer!
To them, Answerer looked like a white screen set in a wall. To their eyes, Answerer was very simple.
"Remember," Lingman said to Morran, "We will be shocked. The truth will be like nothing we have imagined."

The sound of tap is a joy to hear
These are the sounds of tap shoes hitting the ground: click, clank, clunk, tip, tap, toe, shuffle ball change, shuffle hop step.
Every heel has its place in tap class. Tap dance is a stress reliever, a fun form of expression and now my community outreach.
I love to tap. I have studied tap since I was 4 years old. When I turned 13, I started doing tap solos. When these began I told my mom, "I do not want the baby tap shoes anymore." I wanted the ones with the tie up front, like the advanced girls wear.
The next day I put my brand new, $70, size 7z black tap shoes on and scraped them on the sidewalk and scratched the metal on the bottom all up. The reason dancers do this is because with new shoes the metal will not grip the wood floor. The metal needs to grip the floor so the dancers don't fall when the metal gets warm. If the metal is not cracked, the dancer is more likely to slip or fall because the metal can be slippery on the waxed, wooden dance floor.
I practiced in these shoes at South Buffalo Dance Academy for months to prepare for my first solo. I listened to "Can't Buy Me Love" from the Beatles for weeks. I had never heard it before. My teacher had me listen to it about five times, and I did not understand the words at first. After a few times, they became clearer.
I still own those tap shoes. They don't look the same as they did when I first bought them. The leather on the front is scraped off. There are knots in the laces. A piece of the hard bottom of the right foot is slowly chipping away.
Because I'm now in college, I don't dance as much as I used to, but I still have a reason to wear my tap shoes a few times a week. I am now a volunteer at Moving Miracles Dance Studio, a therapeutic dance/movement program for people with developmental delays and special needs. The instructors and volunteers really love the dancers. If a dancer feels that a step is too hard or will hurt, the instructor finds a different step that the dancer is able to do.
Some of the dancers love the part of class called "Musical Notes," an activity in which each dancer gets a whiteboard and a crayon and draws to the sound of the music. If the music is fast, the dancer should move the crayon fast, and if the song is slower the dancer should slow down. Like me, the dancers can't wait to put their tap shoes on. Some dancers like to march around the room with their tap shoes on, and some love doing steps across the floor in their tap shoes.
I am proud to show them how great tap dancing is. I also still take one class per week.
You can see why I still love to tap.

New Reader Tip - UPDATE:
Using the "configure replace" Command
Note: All tips published in the Cisco Technical Services Newsletter are reviewed by Cisco technical support engineers. However, the Cisco Technical Services Newsletter and Cisco cannot guarantee the accuracy or completeness of these tips.
I'm sure you know about the "copy running-config startup-config" command used to save your configuration. However, not too many people know about the command to restore your configuration back to the startup configuration after the router is running. No, the "copy start run" command won't do it. That just merges the startup configuration with the running configuration.
Since IOS 12.3(7)T, a new command has been implemented into the IOS: the "configure replace" command. This command will allow you to truly replace the running configuration with the startup configuration, just as if you had rebooted the router.
There are many variations of this command, but my favorite is the "configure replace nvram:startup-config list" command. This will replace your current running configuration with the startup-config file located in NVRAM and list the commands that were removed/changed.
-Jeremy Cioara, AdTEC Networks, Phoenix, Arizona, USA
Editor's Note: This command is actually a part of a much broader feature known as Configuration Replace and Configuration Rollback. You can learn more about this feature at:

Curricular Practical Training (CPT)
What is CPT?
Who is eligible for CPT?
How do I apply, and how am I notified of the outcome?
What is CPT?
CPT, which stands for Curricular Practical Training, is a federally-organized employment authorization program for currently enrolled F-1 students. Should CPT be granted, students are eligible to work off-campus in positions which give them practical training directly in and related to their major field of study. As it is curricular, CPT must be completed for credit as part of an internship or cooperative education (co-op) program.
Such employment is limited to twenty (20) hours per week during fall and spring semesters. Full-time employment is possible during any scheduled academic breaks (e.g. spring break), and during the summer months.
Who is eligible for CPT?
To be eligible for CPT, a student must meet all of the following requirements:
- Be enrolled as an F-1 student at HPU for one full academic year;
- Be enrolled in a degree program;
- Have no holds on student accounts (e.g. tuition balance, no medical insurance, library fines);
- Complete and pass Writing 1100;
- Complete at least twelve (12) semester hours of credit in college courses numbered 1000 or above;
- For graduate students, complete at least nine (9) semester hours of credit in courses 6100 or above;
- Possess a cumulative undergraduate grade point average (GPA) of at least 2.0 for co-op, or 2.7 for internship.
- For graduate students, maintain a 3.0 cumulative GPA.
In addition, curricular practical training is available only to students who who have room left in their degree plan. Students whose unrestricted electives are already fulfilled will need to meet with a Career Counselor to assess the value of the employment offer. A general petition will be drafted, signed, and completed by International Student Services, the Career Services Center, and the student's respective academic advisor and academic dean. This is necessary to verify to the United States Citizenship & Immigration Service that the work constitutes an invaluable experience that will help the student once he/she returns to their home country.
How do I apply, and how am I notified of the outcome?
To begin the process of applying for CPT, the student should schedule an appointment with an International Student Advisor (ISA). The ISA will let the student know whether or not they are currently eligible based on their immigration status and explain regulations associated with CPT.
Students should bring the following to the appointment with the ISA:
- Current I-20 document
