Broadjam Member Newsletter: 7-20-06, #361
Dear Broadjam Member,
We appreciate hearing back from our members on their musical accomplishments. From getting music featured in a movie or TV series to receiving massive airplay from radio stations, Broadjam members have been experiencing all kinds of success. We have decided to take this week's newsletter and focus on four specific Broadjam member success stories. These are only a few of the many that we receive, and we encourage you to share with us examples of your musical achievements. To contact us, email email@example.com with "Success Story" as the subject heading. Also remember that this is great information to include on your Artist Profile.
Speaking of success, we have put together a program called MailJam to help bring more fans to Broadjam to discover your music and buy your downloads. Broadjam Founder & CEO Roy Elkins has just posted his thoughts on how we can work together to increase the independent music fan community. We hope you'll join us in making this effort a huge success!
Before you read about these members, be sure to check out one of our ongoing contests below.
Broadjam member The Burst Collective has added American Idol to their list of credits, licensing Burst Music selections to help tie Idol's top-rated fifth season together. The Burst Collective is no stranger to high profile gigs, having composed and produced music for major media outlets, national ad campaigns and a host of other exciting projects including Emma Roberts' debut (Columbia), the Felicity Season 4 DVD and a custom music package for GE's Annual Meeting (January 2006) held in Boca Raton, Florida.
A consortium of composers, songwriters and performers formerly based in Los Angeles and now in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, The Burst Collective operates as three separate entities: Burst Music, Burst HQ and Burst Records. The record label is a major independent label featuring top national alternative pop talent.
Julie Moffitt's Burst Records debut, The Stolen EP, features a copy of Sony Acid XPress software in ROM as part of a joint promotion. Drummer Kenny Aronoff (John Mellencamp, Melissa Etheridge, Smashing Pumpkins and Avril Lavigne) graces Owen Sartori's October 2006 debut Another Beautiful Day in the Cube, but you can hear a preview of what's to come - and two exclusive bonus mixes - on Selections From The Cube - an EP, available now from Burst Records.
Check out more from The Burst Collective.
Trakk Addictz Production team member, MRMORE, has been churning out hit beats since 1997. In this time span he has worked on numerous compilations, mixtapes, and DVDs, including the "Pitch Control Mixtape DVD" featuring 50 Cent, Juvenile, Slick Rick, and other big name artists. MRMORE has also produced and released his own album From the Trapt to the Trakk, which is out right now.
Recently, MRMORE produced "My Young Boi," which has been picked up by independent film director, Jay Swain, to be used in Swain's upcoming film City College 9. The movie chronicles the true story of nine people who were tragically killed while attending a celebrity basketball game that took place in 1991 at City College in New York City. On "My Young Boi" MRMORE calls on the lyrical talents of rappers Devour and Wize-G to complement his own unique style. Devour, who happens to also be MRMORE's 15-year-old son, brings an unexpected mature sound to the track that maintains the serious tone evoked by Wize-G from the opening lyrics. Both Devour and Wize-G have also had MRMORE help out on their own solo projects: Devour's digital album, Born Into It, and Wize-G's My Time 2 Shine.
Learn more about MRMORE.
For the last 25 years, Gary Rebholz has been best known as "Buster Fayte" around the local Madison, Wisconsin music scene. As part of the trio "Kevin Fayte and the Rocket 8," Rebholz enjoyed some local success with their solo album, Ridin' in a Rocket and other original works that have been put on compilation albums.
It was under his recent alias, "Samy Max and the Dual Exhaust," that he has received national recognition. Rebholz, along with other artists, has recently had his music featured on the Rapid Remodel TV series, a California-based show that gives a team of tradesmen, vendors, and interior decorators a 1-2 week deadline to finish a huge home makeover. Rebholz's music that will be used in some of the episodes was produced entirely by Rebholz himself, from the drums to the guitar and bass parts.
When asked about his recent success, Rebholz claims that he "was not pursuing any kind of musical notoriety" when posting his music, but that all changed when Producer Allen Tatomer contacted him about using some of his music for Rapid Remodel. Tatomer discovered Rebholz's music right here at Broadjam and he stated, "If it wasn't for Broadjam, we never would have found this amazing artist."
Visit Gary Rebholz's Artist Profile Page.
Mellodog, a musician from Manchester, New Hampshire, joins Gary Rebholz as another musician whose music was discovered on Broadjam and featured on the Rapid Remodel TV series. Mellodog characterizes his music as "delivering explosive Rockabilly Rhythm & Blues peppered with Funky Classic Rock and a li'l bit o' Jazz on the side."
Allen Tatomer, producer for the series, calls Mellodog a "young firebrand who is out to set the world on fire," and a band that he would "love to see live."

We're willing to bet that your mom is one of the most important ladies in your life. We're also willing to bet that's part of what makes it so hard to find just the right thing for her when her special day comes around. You want to find something she'll use all the time, but it can't be strictly utilitarian—you want to find something with a sentimental spin, too. But overthinking it is only going to make the whole process harder… and before you know it, it'll be the day before Mother's Day and you'll still be empty-handed (now that's stressful!). Instead, think about what makes your mom happy (besides you, of course!). Does she like to garden? Or maybe she'd rather spend her afternoon reading in a cozy nook? Anything that brings her a bit of inner peace in an always-on world is likely to win her over. And lucky for you, our editors have cherry-picked more than 50 unique items that fall into a wide variety of interests. Some are just right for gardeners or readers, others are just right for those techies out there, and even more are simply sweet and could suit just about anyone. Our recommendation? Check this list twice, put your favorites in your shopping cart, wait for the gifts to show up on your doorstep, wrap them in a pretty bow, and watch as mom opens with awe. Consider this to be the easiest and most successful Mother's Day yet. (You can thank us later.)

by Philip van Doorn | May 7, 2012 12:48 pm
[1] Capital One (NYSE:COF[2]) is getting it done for investors, with two major acquisitions set to raise the company's earnings bar.
Nearly six months ago, I made Capital One my pick[3] for InvestorPlace's 10 Best Stocks for 2012 contest[4], and the shares indeed have returned 29% year-to-date through Friday's close at $54.52. That beats the YTD returns of three out of the "big four" U.S. banks, with the notable exception of Bank of America (NYSE:BAC[5]), with a total return of 39% through Friday's close.
Of course, Bank of America's year-to-date performance owes a great deal to the stock's 58% decline during 2011, when Capital One's shares had a flat return. Plus, BAC's shares have pulled back 22% from their 2012 closing high of $9.93 on March 26.
Bank of America's shares were trading at such a low multiple to tangible book value at the end of the year that a recovery for the shares seemed quite likely.
Giving some further perspective to the numbers, Bank of America's 52-week total return through Friday was -37%, while Capital One's 52-week return was 2%.
Capital One's slide during the second half of 2011 owed quite a bit to the uncertainty surrounding the Federal Reserve's prolonged approval process for the company's acquisition of ING Direct.
That's just the type of uncertainty a confident long-term investor can take advantage of.
The ING Direct acquisition was completed in February, with Capital One booking a first-quarter bargain purchase gain of $594 million, and providing the liquidity needed for the company's next major acquisition.
Capital One in March completed a $1.25 billion common stock offering, which will be used to complete its purchase of HSBC's (NYSE:HBC[6]) roughly $30 billion U.S. credit card portfolio, for a premium of $2.6 billion. Regulatory approval has been received from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency for the HSBC deal, which should be completed during the second quarter.
Following what is bound to be another messy quarter with one-time items related to the acquisitions, investors will be looking for Capital One to build on its renewed credit card focus with improving operating earnings. As we pointed out in our December piece, Capital One's return on average assets ranged between 1.74% and 3.05% during the five-year period prior to 2008, when the credit crisis nearly wiped out the company's earnings in 2008. During those five years, Capital One's shares tended to trade in a range of 14 to 27 times trailing earnings.
At Friday's close, Capital One was trading for just above tangible book value — according to Thomson Reuters Bank Insight — and for just 8 times the consensus 2013 earnings estimate of $6.86, among analysts polled by Thomson Reuters. The consensus 2012 EPS is $6.39.
There are plenty of other large banks trading at low multiples to forward earnings and book value:
But Capital One still looks like a winner, since its returns on assets and equity are likely to beat the bigger banks over the long haul. Credit cards are simply more profitable than most other loan types because of the high interest rates that consumers are willing to pay. And while the bigger banks also enjoy investment banking and trading revenue streams, these can be quite volatile.
Capital One's first-quarter net interest margin — the difference between a bank's average yield on loans and deposits and its average cost for deposits and wholesale borrowings — was 6.2% during the first quarter, declining by more than 1% from the fourth quarter, "as a result of the on-boarding of ING Direct's lower yielding assets and temporarily high cash balances," according to the company.
Following the second quarter, when those cash balances will be put to work supporting the HSBC card portfolio purchase, Capital One should see quite a boost in the margin.
For the first quarter, Bank of America's net interest margin was just 2.45%, according to Thomson Reuters Bank Insight, while Citigroup's was 2.85% and JPMorgan Chase's was 2.56%.

Kate Middleton's Baby-on-the-Way: Potential Princess!
She's still months away from giving birth, and Kate Middleton just found out that if she has a girl the little Royal will be honored with the title "Princess."
During her 31st birthday celebration yesterday (January 9), the Duchess of Cambridge learned that Queen Elizabeth II changed a decree that previously prevented female offspring from bearing the moniker. Instead they were called "Lady."
The announcement stated, "The Queen has been pleased by Letters Patent under the Great Seal of the Realm dated 31 December 2012 to declare that all the children of the eldest son of the Prince of Wales should have and enjoy the style, title and attribute of royal highness with the titular dignity of Prince or Princess prefixed to their Christian names or with such other titles of honor."
However, Kate and her husband Prince William have not yet announced whether they're having a boy or a girl, so they may also have a Prince on their hands!

It's the clash of the Titans this week. In one corner we have Big Brother, the daddy of all television reality shows, and in the other Daylesford Organic Farm Shop, the jewel in the crown of the Cotswolds. Both have invited me to join them, in a sense, and a personal struggle ensues. You see, I want to like Big Brother. This, the tenth series, is the last. On the August 24 the last of the housemates are released, one is crowned winner of this series, and, as the ultimate punishment, goes back in for two weeks to fight it out with 12 ex-housemates – the biggest names in that strange world of Big Brother followers – for the title 'Ultimate Big Brother Allstars'. Or some such. I might have been tempted to join them. After all, I have a sentimental attachment to something that gave me a glimpse of another world a couple of years ago. But, when push comes to hygiene, I confess matters of cleanliness meant negotiations broke down. After twelve weeks of shut-down in That House we should be grateful there is not yet such a thing as Smellavision.
On the other hand I didn't want to like Daylesford. It has as much to do with farming, animals and the countryside as Harvey Nichols food hall. It is groomed and trimmed and topiaried to the enth degree. Unlike the Big Brother house, which is just a temporary cardboard set to house for a moment it's temporary cardboard guests, Daylesford is an immaculate stage set for its equally perfect goods and services and customers. One is about human nature at its worst, all ugliness and vaunted bad behaviour, the other is about excellence and betterment. That I am more drawn, perhaps through perversity, to wish to like Big Brother shows more about me than about them. In Big Brother I want to show that there is an alternative way of behaving. That it is possible to be civilised, thoughtful, funny, and clean. At Daylesford I want to run amok, flinging sheep droppings and non-organic carrots and crying, 'Whatever!' In the event I fail at both. I won't be going back to Big Brother. And I was seduced at Daylesford by their lovely staff, delicious food and scrummy moist chocolate cake. Oh yes, and not just by the cleanliness - I admit it - when push comes to shove I do like a lock on the bathroom door.

Alternative Contracting Work Plan
A. Introduction:
The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) submits this work plan for review and approval for the use of the Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) alternative contracting method to reconstruct the Interstate-17 (1-17)/ State Route 69 (SR 69) interchange at Cordes Junction (Cordes Junction TI), approximately 62 miles north of Phoenix in Yavapai County, Arizona. The Department has traditionally used the design-bid-build method of constructing highway projects. However, ADOT is currently using the CMAR process on two state-funded highway projects.
The existing Cordes Junction interchange is a systems interchange with a local access road off the northbound directional flyover ramp. Local traffic mixing with the high speed free-flow traffic has caused numerous accidents over the past years as traffic volumes continue to grow. The proposed project will separate the high speed directional traffic movements from the slower local traffic destined for the businesses and residences in the Cordes Lakes area, providing improved safety in the community. Use of the CMAR alternative method is expected to provide an accelerated construction schedule with reduced impacts to the motoring public and the surrounding businesses and residents. A project location map is attached.
B. Purpose:
The Department is authorized under A.R.S.28-7366 (attached) to utilize alternative contracting methods to deliver projects listed in the ADOT Five Year Transportation Program.
The CMAR alternative contracting method is an innovative process that is being widely used by local governments and the private sector throughout the country. it is a process that allows selection of a contractor based on qualifications early in the project development process. Once selected the CMAR becomes a collaborative member of the project team. As the contract documents near completion, the CMAR and Department will negotiate a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP). Once the GMP is accepted by the Department and a construction contract executed, the CMAR will construct the project for the GMP or less. If the actual cost of the work exceeds the GMP, the contractor is obligated to complete the work at no additional cost to the Department.
Use of the CMAR alternative contracting method will allow the Department to take advantage of the contractor's expertise during the design phase of the project. The CMAR method is expected to foster a cooperative owner-designer-contractor effort to develop and review design documents, to identify potential cost or time saving methods and to complete construction of the roadway improvements. The use of CMAR will enable the Department to bring the best available construction experience and expertise together to work with ADOT and consultant design staff to successfully meet the schedule, constructability and long term budget challenges presented by this project.
The early involvement of the contractor is expected to aid in providing a quality project achieving timely completion with undue inconvenience to the public, producing the work at a reasonable cost to ADOT. The CMAR's involvement in the design of the project should eliminate or greatly reduce change orders during construction. Proactive participation by the CMAR early in the design process will produce substantial benefit by providing constructability reviews, using the CMAR's best efforts to see that the project can be constructed in the best, most expeditious and economical manner consistent with the interests of ADOT.
Additionally, using the CMAR process allows the project to be designed to the specific strengths of the contractor who is expected to perform the construction work. Rather than designing for an average equipment spread or type of crew, the work can be planned based on the actual equipment and crews that will be used on the project.
It is expected that the design team, including the CMAR, will evaluate the advantages of phasing the construction of project. The Department may allow the use of multiple Guaranteed Maximum Prices (GMPs) on the project to accommodate phased construction. If phasing is implemented, it is expected that the project team will focus their first design and right-of-way acquisition efforts on the north TI. If all necessary clearances are complete, the Department may consider a GMP proposal from the CMAR for the construction of the north TI. This would allow the CMAR to begin construction on the north TI while the design and right-of-way acquisition is completed on the remainder of the project. It is anticipated that this could save approximately six months of project time. Additionally, lessons learned during construction of the first phase could be applied to the remaining part of the project with a potential cost savings to ADOT.
C. Scope:
Project Description:
The scope of work for this project will include the design and reconstruction of the 1-17 and SR 69 Interchange at Cordes Junction. An overall reconstruction concept drawing is attached. The designer for the project (HDR Engineering) is currently under contract with the Department. HDR has already started design and the thirty percent submittal is expected in April of 2008.
This project will reconstruct the existing Cordes Junction TI replacing the existing loop ramps and the free flow directional ramps with new structures and ramps designed to meet today's design standards and to accommodate traffic needs for the future. The improvements will also include:
- Construction of a new TI north of the directional ramps for additional community access
- Construction of Big Bug Creek bridge replacements
- Construction of local street improvements
- Accommodation of two-way traffic across 1-17 by constructing a new connector road and overpass connected to the local street system by roundabouts
It is possible that the Cordes Junction TI project will be constructed in two or more distinct phases, the first being construction of the new North TI and the second being the reconstruction in the area of the current interchange.
The CMAR will be free to recommend construction sequencing, maintenance of traffic options, possible structure types, earthwork balance, and construction methods. This freedom will allow the CMAR to aid in developing a project that will best use the contractor's abilities and equipment.
CMAR Process Description:
The Department will advertise for Statements of Qualifications (SOQs) and select the CMAR in accordance with ARS 28-7366. A general description of the process follows:
The Department will advertise for SOQs from interested, prequalified contractors through a Request for SOQs. Each contractor proposing on the CMAR project will Submit its SOQ following the format required by the Department.
Based on an evaluation of the SOQs, the selection team will invite firms to participate in oral interviews. Interviews will be held with at least the number of firms on the final list and not more than the number on the final list pius two.
Combined scoring from the SOQs and the oral interviews will determine the rankings on the final list. The Department will enter into negotiations with highest ranked firm on the final list for a Preconstruction Services Contract. During the design phase of the project, the CMAR will be compensated in accordance with Subsection E-1 of ARS 28-7366. The highest ranked firm will provide a list of specific billable rates that they expect to use during the Preconstruction Phase of the project and these rates will be negotiated with the Department. The Preconstruction Services Contract will be paid by the hour at the negotiated billing rates for each job classification required.
If the Department is not able to negotiate a satisfactory contract with the highest ranked firm on the final list. the Department may undertake negotiations with the next ranked firm on the final list.
The Department has the authority to award the Preconstruction Services Contract and to reject any and all proposals. Typical reasons for rejection will be listed in the scope of work. If a proposal is rejected. the contractor will be notified in writing of the reason for the rejection.
Under the Preconstruction Services Contract. the selected CMAR will be expected to perform the following tasks (list is illustrative and not intended to be all inclusive):
- Coordinate with the design consultant
- Prepare a construction management plan
- Prepare a CPM project schedule
- Attend regularly scheduled progress team meetings
- Review design developed construction documents and make suggestions
- Provide suggestions to improve efficiency and save construction or long-term operational costs
- Provide a cost model for the entire project at each stage of project development
- Provide constructability reviews
- Evaluate and suggest construction phasing. sequencing and site logistics
- Identify Long lead time item procurement
- Provide bidability reviews
- Permitting. subcontractor preparation and packaging
- Provide a GMP
GMP Proposal Review and Approval
The CMAR shall meet with the Project Manager and Design Consultant to review any GMP Proposal(s) and the written statement of its basis. In the event the Project Manager or Design Consultant discovers inconsistencies or inaccuracies in the information presented. the CMAR shall make adjustments as necessary to the GMP Proposal. its basis or both.
Upon receipt of any GMP Proposal from the CMAR. the Department may submit the same documents that were used by the CMAR in developing the GMP to an independent third party or to the3 Design Consultant for review and verification.
If the GMP Proposal is greater than the Department's estimate, the Department may require the CMAR to reconfirm its GMP Proposal. The CMAR may be requested to, or at its own discretion, submit a revised GMP Proposal for consideration by the Department. At that time the Department may do one of the following.
Accept the CMAR's original or revised GMP Proposal, if within the Department's budget, without comment.
Accept the CMAR's original or revised GMP Proposal that exceeds the Department's budget, and indicate in writing to the CMAR that the Project BUdget has been increased to fund the differences.
Reject the CMAR's original or revised GMP Proposal because it exceeds either or. both the Department's budget and the independent estimate, in which event, the Department may terminate this Contract and/or elect to not enter Into a separate contract with the CMAR for the construction phase associated with the scope of Work reflected in the GMP Proposal.
If design changes are required during review and negotiation of the GMP Proposals, the Department may authorize and cause the Design Consultant to. revise the Construction Documents to the extent necessary. Such revised Construction Documents will be furnished to the CMAR and the Project Manager for review. The CMAR shall promptly notify the Project Manager if any such revised Construction Documents are inconsistent with the agreed upon revisions.
The Department is not obligated to have the CMAR construct the project, the CMAR has no right to construct the project, and the CMAR has no claim against the Department if the Department elects to terminate the project or to advertise the project for bid through the Department's construction bidding process. If the Department elects to bid the project, the CMAR will not be allowed to submit a bid.
The Design Phase and the Construction Phase are not mutually exclusive in timing. The Construction Phase may begin before all activities of the Design Phase are complete. However, no construction activities shall begin until the site has been cleared by the Department's Environmental, Utility and Right-of-Way Sections. Regardless of when or whether the Construction Phase begins, the CMAR will remain obligated to complete the Preconstruction Services Contract.
Multiple GMPS
The Department may consider the use of multiple GMPs on this project. During the Preconstruction Phase. the Department, the Design Consultant. or the CMAR may propose portions of the work to be constructed under separate GMPs. The Department will only consider proposals for multiple GMPs that meet the following criteria:
The implementation of multiple GMPs must be clearly understood by the Department to be in its best interest.
The segment of work proposed for construction under a separate GMP shall have been cleared by the Department's Environmental, Right of Way and Utility Sections in advance of the start of construction. Additionally, work constructed under a GMP that does not cover the entire project shall not affect adjacent areas that do not have all required clearances.
The final product of construction under each GMP shall be a stand-alone segment. For example, if a project includes construction of multiple traffic interchanges (TIs), a proposal for a separate GMP to construct one of the TIs that would be usable to the traveling public upon completion of construction would be a stand-alone segment and. may be considered for construction under a separate GMP.
Use of more than one GMP on the project must be demonstrated to save time, inconvenience to the travelling public, or construction funds.
If work on the project is done under multiple GMPs, each GMP will be a separate construction contract between the Department and the CMAR. Execution of a construction contract for one GMP does not obligate the Department to have the CMAR construct the entire project.
The CMAR shall maintain a cost model detailing the estimated construction costs for the entire project throughout the Preconstruction Phase. If multiple GMPs are to be used, the Department will evaluate each GMP considering the cost model for the entire project. The Department will not approve a GMP for a portion of the work until the Department has determined that the CMAR can construct the entire project within the project budget.
D. Schedule:
The CMAR process will have the following steps:
Step 1: Preparation of the SOQ: (estimated time: one month)
A request for Statements of Qualifications will be developed by the Department. The Request for SOQs from the Department's first two state-funded CMAR projects will be used as a template. The template will be edited to include federal requirements and to address this specific project. As part of the Request for SOQs the Department will provide all of the project information developed to date. This will include the 30-percent design plans, Traffic Report, Initial Materials Memo, and existing environmental documentation.
Step 2: Advertisement and Selection of the CMAR: (estimated time: three months)
The request for SOQs will be advertised for a minimum of four weeks. The Selection Team will have approximately two weeks for review the SOQs and determine which firms to invite for interviews: The contractors will be contacted and scheduled for oral interviews within two weeks. The final list will be announced within five business days of the last oral interview. The Department will negotiate and execute the Preconstruction Services Contract.
Step 3: Design/Preconstruction Services Phase: (estimated lime: ten to twelve months)
Preconstruction Services will be initiated upon execution of the Preconstruction Services Contract by the Department and the CMAR. The CMAR will prepare cost models (estimates) at each stage of design. When the CMAR is comfortable that they can construct the project for the amount in the cost model, or less, they will submit a Guaranteed Maximum Price Proposal.
Step 4: Construction Phase: (estimated time: twelve to fifteen months)
Once the Department and the CMAR agree upon a GMP, all required clearances are completed, and Federal concurrence has been received the Department will recommend the GMP for award at a Transportation Board meeting. Once the Transportation Board awards the construction contract for the GMP or less, the CMAR may begin construction of the project or portion of the project.
If multiple GMPs are used, FHWA concurrence will be required prior to the acceptance of the first GMP. The Department will present the first GMP to the Transportation Board and recommend award of a construction contract for the amount of that GMP. The Department will request authorization to execute additional GMP contracts to the CMAR up to the approved project budget amount. As long as subsequent GMPs do not exceed the project budget, the Department will not return to the Transportation Board for action on the project.
Completion of the entire project is expected to be in mid to late 2009. Evaluation reports will be prepared as noted below in the reporting section.
Selection Team:
The SOQs and oral interviews will be evaluated by a Selection Team composed of a minimum of three individuals. ARS 28-7366 states that:
- Selection Team members may be Department employees or outside consultants.
- At least half of the Selection Team shall be registered engineers or architects.
- At least one member of the Selection Team must be a senior management employee of a licensed contractor who is not involved in the project.
- Any architect or engineer on the Selection Team that is not a Department employee shall not be otherwise involved in the project.
The FHWA will be given the option of including a representative on the Selection Team.
Evaluation of SOQs and Oral Interviews:
The Department has developed selection procedures in order to provide a balanced assessment of the SOQs and oral interviews. Evaluation criteria will be tailored to each project. The evaluation criteria and the associated points used to evaluate the SOQs will be included in the Request for Statements of Qualifications.
Example selection criteria follow:
- Qualifications of the firm/consortium
- Experience of key personnel (Resumes to be provided in SOQ)
- Project understanding and approach including public relations
- Firms overall approach to safety
- Other miscellaneous project specific criteria.
The oral interview process will be defined in the Request for SOQs
All responsive submittals and oral interviews will be scored.
E. Reporting:
The Department will prepare and submit to the Federal Highway Administration initial, interim and final reports on the project. The initial report will be submitted after execution of the Preconstruction Services Contract. It will include any feedback received from the contracting industry on the CMAR process.
An intermediate report will be prepared and submitted at the point where the CMAR and the Department agree on a GMP. The intermediate report will discuss how the preconstruction services portion of the project has progressed to date. Included will be discussion of project quality, schedule, the GMP compared to the Department's initial program amount and work performance by the CMAR.
A final report evaluating the overall effectiveness of the CMAR alternative contracting method will be submitted upon completion of construction and acceptance by ADOT and FHWA. The benefits! advantages as well as any deficiencies noted during the CMAR process will be Identified and documented to use in determining whether this process is viable for continued use.

I do want to comment on halloween but LO is tired and ready for bed as am I.
Already!?!?! ~ Lori, doula, childbirth educator, wife to Jermaine 6/04, and mom to two happy and energetic boys - Tatum 6/06 and Keegan 3/09
Can I just cry and complain here a minute...I need to let it all out. In the past 24 hours, ....... Turns out, I think only the middle one is broken, the other two badly injured though. Oh my gosh. I'd never been more thankful to ice an injury.
Oh My! That was a day (and a night!) and hopes for a peaceful healing night for you.
I've got three monkeys jumping on the bed!!
Mamato Ruby Violet (6 with autism) and someone who should make him/herself known sometime in the next month.
And Korin, you'd think it was from too much MDC time...but actually, it was Ja and I discovering it from a Family Guy episode (we had no idea what the "peanut butter jelly time" song was), so decided to Google it, found THIS about 6 months ago, and became obsessed with playing it on a daily basis - so naturally DS was seeing it too, and he and DD groove to it whenever we play it, and DS sings the song. When he sees my siggy here he says, "That's my Halloween Costume!", but it's not from here that he starting loving it. In fact, it was Jason that asked me to put the guy in the siggy next to his name, since I had icons for everyone else but him
But um, yeah, I DO spend too much time on MDC. No doubt. COMPLETELY reasonable assumption on your part. I'm hoping by posting that link that someone else will become as obsessed wiht this little dude as we are. Mwahahahahahahahaaaaaaa.....
Mamato Ruby Violet (6 with autism) and someone who should make him/herself known sometime in the next month.
K is going to be a porcupine for Halloween, I'm making the costume for her, just have to get some faux fur. Will take pics when it's ready.
Re: Halloween. In theory, Nevie will be a Giraffe. Won the costume on eBay. Then found several EXACT SAME costumes at the local children's consignment store. For much cheaper, considering shipping. D'oh. So I'll believe she'll be a Giraffe when the costume gets here. The first costume I won came (ladybug)... but was a 6-month size, not 12-month as titled in the auction. The seller refunded all my money, so I gave it to a classmate with an appropriately-sized little girl.
School is kickin' my butt, y'all. Oh well. And I have barely worn Nevie lately -- mostly because she likes walking so much and because the opportunity just hasn't been there as much. Day care, yada yada. School, yada yada. Living the life of the shut in, yada yada.
Happy Birthday to me!
And of course J and S2 are both sick and REALLY miserable. but oh well.
a friend of mine is pregnant!! and hasn't told anyone else yet! i got to be first! this is her first baby, and i am SO excited!
Mamato Ruby Violet (6 with autism) and someone who should make him/herself known sometime in the next month.
Lori -- Holy Freakin' Cow. I really hope your day looks up!! You need to win the lottery or something to make up for that chain of events.
On the bright side, I got a great night's sleep last night. Tatum only woke once (the first time thats EVER happened. really.) So, tomorrow I hope to see a new tooth emerging from those gums because it was a cranky evening tonight once again. I wish I could take a picture of his whiny face...sometimes I have to really try hard not to laugh right at him. He scrunches up his nose and eyes and his top lip comes up all high, exposing his two front big teeth with his cute gap, and his jaw twists slightly...aww, he's so adorable just thinking of him makes me smile.
Tatum is going to be a soccer star. (Dh might be disappointed if he doesn't become a wrestler, so I am downplaying his innate soccer ability...) He literally dribbles a soccer ball (half the size of himself) all over our house every time he sees it. I mean, dribbles, for real, like a big kid. At a field tonight for soccer practice (the five yo I watch), Tatum was seriously running and dribbling the ball along better than any of the five year olds. I just watched in amazement because he did it sooo well with hardly any practice...and all on his own - then he stopped the ball by placing his foot on top. I gave him a whistle to go along with his activity. He ran around like this for a half hour blowing his whistle like some soccer coach - it was hilarious enough to last me through the week!
Halloween: I am making superhero costumes for him and hopefully my dh and I as well...The way things are going I'll be lucky to just get the capes made. I am still learning how to sew different things, so the boots are a little tough for me. But I am determined to figure it all out.
Oh, HAPPY BIRTHDAY SARAH!
Already!?!?! ~ Lori, doula, childbirth educator, wife to Jermaine 6/04, and mom to two happy and energetic boys - Tatum 6/06 and Keegan 3/09
We used to rock to sleep. Now, she squirms and grumps at me until I lay her in her bed, awake, put her blanket over her and sit in the rocking chair next to the bed. Then she goes to sleep by herself. Doesn't want to be touched. It's only been a week, and I miss rocking to sleep!
Happy Birthday Sarah! And I LOVE the quote in your siggy. It's so true!
Apparently we sleep like a big kid now.

We use a babyhawk and ring sling. I can't think of the company. it depends where we're going and if she's awake sleepiong./
Hannah is going to be a caterpillar or kitty for Halloween, i can't decided between the costumes....
'Tis Thanksgiving today. Am stuffed.
K is going to be a porcupine for Halloween, I'm making the costume for her, just have to get some faux fur. Will take pics when it's ready.
I am in I teeth hell! good sleep last night though.
Oh, forgot to ask: who is still babywearing? What carrier(s) are you using now, particularly those with heavier toddlers? Andrew is like 28 or 29 lbs., sometimes likes to walk/ride in a stroller but other times wants to be in the sling. He gets really heavy on the front and I find the hip carry gets in the way a lot....yesterday in the corn maze I was soooo wishing I had a back carrier! I have a Didy I could use on my back, but I find it hard to get him into it. I was thinking of getting a Beco or an Ergo - any of you still using those? Which of them would you mamas recommend?
I would say the didy or a mt are your best option. Baby Hawk makes a toddler hawk for bigger babies.
I'm actually still debating doing the owl instead. That's the grey one pictured on the cover. So cute. I need to go look at that book again.
I can't see spending the cake though.
Thanks! I'll look for it.
Andrew is going to be Peter Pan for Halloween - no, I didn't pick that, I let his sisters choose I don't even know if the costume will fit - it looks like it's made for bigger kids, but I got the smallest size they had and figured we'll make it work.
The girls are total Disney Princess fiends right now, so they're going to be Jasmine (from the movie Aladdin, for those not routinely subjected to everything Princess ) and Snow White - funny, because DD2 has very light blond hair but was scared to death of the black Snow White wig they sold with the costume, so she's really going to look nothing like Snow White except for the dress, LOL. So as long as I was not being creative and crafty with the homemade costumes and was going the store-bought route, I decided to make it easy on myself at the Disney Store & said, girls, when you're done picking out your costumes, go to the boys' side and pick one out for your brother so we can get out of here Evidently they enjoyed being whacked on the head with a foam sword, so Peter Pan it is.....

Anyway, sorry to pop in and be such a downer. I am just so exhausted that I feel like a crazy person.
I had something to say, and now I forget what it was. Back later.
Mamato Ruby Violet (6 with autism) and someone who should make him/herself known sometime in the next month.
Things are going . . . adventuresomely . . . over here. Landed my ass in the hospital last weekend when my misguided immune system decided to attack healthy muscle tissue instead of a virus. I woke up Saturday morning and couldn't move without throwing up from the pain and parts of my body went numb. Fun stuff.
As a result, Bastian and I had our first night apart. Didn't go too well.
DH won't actually give me any details, because he figures it would just upset me more. (I HATE being kept in the dark.) But I do know that Bastian woke to nurse from midnight-1:30am and again 5-6:30am. I'm reassured by the fact that dh tried everything to help him get back to sleep -- frozen teething toy, defrosted breastmilk in a sippy, boobsicle (that one worked for a while), homeopathic chamomile, Motrin, slinging, walking, singing. . . . I'm decidedly not reassured by the fact that one of our neighbors commented that she could hear Bastian through closed windows. : So I know he was really unhappy.
But he seems to have recovered well, aside from being extra clingy for a few days afterward. But he was already pretty clingy since he's getting all four cuspids in (still), so what's a little more?
It took me about 5 days to be able to pick him and his sister up again, and I'm just getting to the point where I can be on my feet for more than 10 minutes without having to take an hour on the couch afterward.
Methinks this is the karmic boot to the back of the head I've been needing to slow down a little. I just have to decide which of my (eep) four jobs to quit. (And how the hell did THAT happen?)
Bastian's having an awesome word explosion over here. Nothing really clear or multisyllable yet except "Mama" (me, dh, and boobs are all "mama"), "hi," and "bye." But he's parroting words back to us like crazy in his happy babble screeching sort of way and we can mostly understand him, which he finds thrilling. I think he's been frustrated with us not understanding his words.
In other adventures, he's developed an allergy to all things in the nightshade family. It started out with a skin rash when he ate tomatoes, which he'd been doing all summer with no problem, and has expanded to include potatoes, bell peppers, hot peppers, paprika, and cayenne. I had no idea peppers, tomatoes, and potatoes were all related to each other. That's making life interesting in our Italian and Indian food-loving vegetarian family!

Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
I went to service my car and instead of waiting in the waiting room I went to sales department to look at cars. I test drove a car and talked about trading in my lease but they wouldn't even give me a rough estimate on how much I would pay for a car without pulling my cosigners credit. Two hours pass by and I go to get my car cause I was pretty sure it would be ready but to my amazement there was no one in the service department except 1 person who said that she didn't have the keys to my car or if she called her supervisor that she would not pick up her phone and she didn't have the number for the service manager.
So I went back to the sales department to see if they could get my keys or fix the problem but they pretty much didn't recognize my existence and just brushed me away saying they don't have anyway of contacting the managers in service department or any way to get the keys. The Salesman that I test drove a car with found a mechanic in service department and was able to call the manager or somebody to get my keys and sign the receipt. How was the mechanic able to get the phone number but not the female working in the office? Also why did they not call me when I was not in the waiting room and my car was ready? They did ask me for my phone number when I gave them to service my car. This is the best example of poor customer service.

St. Louis, MO – Red Bull KTM Factory rider Marvin Musquin finished inside the top five with a 4th place result in the 250SX class at the third round of the Monster Energy East 250SX Supercross Series, an FIM World Championship.
Musquin had the second fastest practice time heading into the night show where he was placed in the first 250SX heat. He had a great jump off the start gate in his heat but crashed in the second corner. He remounted in the back of the back. At the end of the first lap he had moved his way back into the top ten. In the remaining laps he was able to make important passes to move his KTM into qualifying position. He eventually climbed back to 5th to qualify to the main event.
In the main event, Musquin earned a 4th place start only to crash in the sand section on the first lap. He quickly recovered only losing about five positions and finished the first lap in 8th place. For the next five laps he moved forward through the pack eventually passing into 4th place on lap five. Once in 4th, he settled into a solid pace and maintained his position through the remaining laps to finish one spot shy of the podium.
"I didn't have my best performance tonight," stated Musquin after the race. "I had some really good moments but I also had some moments I wish I hadn't. I got frustrated in the middle of the race when some lines I took didn't work out the way I hoped. I will keep working away at it and hope to return to the podium next weekend."

The assembly drafting Egypt's new constitution voted on Thursday to keep "principles of sharia" - Islamic law - as the main source of legislation, language unchanged from the previous constitution in force under former president Hosni Mubarak.
The issue was the subject of a long dispute between hardline Salafi Islamists and liberals in the assembly which will vote on each of 234 articles in the draft constitution before it is sent to President Mohamed Morsi for approval.
After that, Mr. Morsi must put it to a popular referendum.
The Muslim Brotherhood, the Islamist group that nominated Mr. Morsi for the presidency, hopes that quick approval of the constitution will help end a crisis ignited by a decree that expanded his powers.
While Article Two of the constitution - describing the source of legislation - stays the same, the constitution includes new provisions explaining what is meant by "the principles" of Islamic law, known as sharia.
The assembly also approved a new article that states that Al-Azhar, a seat of Sunni Muslim learning, must be consulted on "matters related to the Islamic sharia".
The final draft makes historic changes to Egypt's system of government. For example, it sets a limit on the number of terms a president may serve to two. Mr. Mubarak stayed in power for three decades.
It also introduces a degree of civilian oversight over the powerful military establishment, although not enough for some critics of the document.
The process has been plagued by disputes between the Islamists who dominate the body writing the constitution and secular-minded parties who say the Muslim Brotherhood and its allies have marginalised them in the process.
Prominent assembly members including former Arab League Secretary-General Amr Moussa have withdrawn from the assembly, as have representatives of Egypt's Coptic Church.Report Typo/Error

Cranberry Walnut Celebration Bread
Week #11 in the Bread Baker's Apprentice Challenge is Cranberry Walnut Celebration Bread. I must admit I was so excited to be moving on from last week's Cornbread!
So that you're not kept in suspense any longer I DIDN'T like it! I know, I had high hopes with the addition of sugar & who can resist bacon. But alas, nope, didn't care for it. So most of it went to dear Bella (our dog!). She of course was ever so grateful & I was grateful to dispose of it. The ultimate cornbread (sweet SWEET sweet of course) recipe still eludes me. Sigh! Sorry Peter. It's not you, it's me LOL!
Well I'm happy to say that I was excited about this bread. It's sweet after all (ha ha) & only a 1 day task! Woo hoo! And I really have enjoyed all the other braided breads…Challah which you know is in my top three so far and who can forget Artos. Both of those however were only single braids. This recipe called for a double braid. Yikes! I was in uncharted territory here. The double braid did intimidate me, why I feel like I was just getting the hang of the single braid. But nevertheless, I pushed ahead with the help of Marta (who had been given the week off last week & was raring to get her hook back into things again).
It was fairly painless until I got to the rolling portion. We were to roll out 6 strands, 1 set being larger than the other. I got my scale out, cut & measured my pieces & was ready to roll. Well have you ever tried to roll out dough that was full of dried berries & nuts? NOT SO EASY! Berries & nuts were flying all over my counter. I was trying to push them back in as fast as they were coming out. I lost that battle. I rolled them out as best I could & braided them. Once it was braided I shoved as many of them back in as possible. Whew!
This bread really rose to the occasion. She puffed up all proudly & came out of the oven with a lovely tan! Beautiful bread! Will of course be making French Toast out of this one as well! You know I wouldn't be able to resist, didn't you!
Here are the step by steps: (Remember if I can bake bread, you can too!)
Dry Ingriedients: King Arthur Flour, Yeast, Salt & Sugar
Wet Ingriedients: Orange Extract, Eggs, Milk & Melted Butter added to Dry Ingriedients
Look at Marta whipping up that dough
Adding in the Craisins
Marta whipping them into the dough
All braided (all that braiding of Miss Priss' hair finally is coming in handy)
Ta da, my first double braid 🙂 Not too shabby if I say so myself.
And fresh of out of the oven with a lovely golden summer tan!
Yes, it was as good as it looks.
Here's the overhead shot where I almost fell off the chair! You see what I go through for you 🙂 LOL
Sneak peak: Next week's challenge: English Muffins!

I am so impressed! This is making me wish I weren't going on vacation tomorrow so I could bake the bread this weekend! Ah well, something to look forward to when I return.
Congrats on the gorgeous braid and bread. Those bright red cranberries just look delish. Cheers …2
Looks great and SO glad you didn't fall off the chair. 🙂 I do the same thing.
I didn't like the cornbread either.
Have fun and nice baking along with you,
Wow Paula, that is absolutely BEAUTIFUL!4
I had to laugh about your comments re: the corn bread. I didn't like it either, but I fed a small piece to my dog this morning and he was thrilled with it. 🙂 Your cranberry walnut loaf, on the other hand, looks delicious!
Looks beautiful. I'm glad you liked how it tasted. I gave my loaf away, too big for us to eat.6
This looks delicious! I'm glad you enjoyed it. We're still on the cornbread this week but I'm already looking forward to this one.7
Beautiful pics ~ a def. add to my recipe box. Molto grazie!8
This bread is so beautiful! I love that it's an autumn flavor/color combination that works just as well in summer! (And it looks bejeweled, which is also a happy bonus.)9
Oh no! I'm making the cornbread tomorrow, so maybe I should make the celebration bread at the same time so I'm not disappointed. I like sweet cornbread too – I'll try to remember to email you my great grandma's cornbread recipe. It's sweet and super fabulous!10
Very nice! I've been a little wary of making this bread – I'm not excited about the double braid, either. Or the cranberries, but I know I'm a little weird with those. Still, here's hoping this make a good breakfast! Your photos are beautiful!

Australia's largest gold producer
Since a review of the WA royalty system began last year, the state's miners have cautioned that the industry is not in a position to pay higher rates.
Royalties are a price paid by miners to the state government for digging up state-owned resources and the review aims to determine whether companies are meeting current requirements.
Newcrest chief executive
"Any gold plant in WA, and Telfer specifically, is very vulnerable to any increase in costs particularly given the high Australian dollar … which may result in an asset impairment at Telfer.
"Any contemplated increase by any government at this point in time in that space should be well considered because the industry can ill afford any further imposts of any sort."
Mr Biswas said he did not expect the government's decision over a possible impost to be finalised until early 2015 but Association of Mining and Exploration Companies chief executive
"Newcrest's position is a consistent position across the industry. It's inappropriate to be fiddling with royalties at the moment considering the current state of the economy," he said.
"Any increase in royalties would have a direct impact on production and the government needs to be aware of that."
Gold producers worried they'll be targeted
One of the key concerns surrounding the review is that the government has booked more than $180 million in additional royalties for 2015-16, despite the review remaining incomplete.
Gold producers say this has led them to believe they may be a target of the review as the $180 million figure could be generated by doubling gold's royalty rate to 5 per cent. The royalty system is designed to capture 10 per cent of the "mine head value" of a mineral, which translates to a different royalty rate depending on how much processing the mineral requires.
Gold is subject to a 2.5 per cent rate based on the gross value of metal. The iron ore royalty rate is 7.5 per cent of value of crushed and screened ore. Base metals such as nickel and silver are charged a royalty rate of 5 per cent of the value of concentrate at the smelter.
"We are acutely aware that with about 500 employees, we are an important driver for the goldfields community. The last thing we want to see is people losing their livelihoods due to increased costs imposed on us," he said.
A group of gold producers banded together as the Gold Royalty Response Group in 2010 to represent the interests of WA gold producers and is planning an advertising campaign to highlight the importance of the sector to the state.

Tigers, Roos treat draw as a defeat
WHILE both Richmond and North Melbourne treated yesterday's draw, the first of 2009, as a flattening defeat, Tigers coach Jade Rawlings emerged from it with the view that his team is capable of pushing for a finals berth in 2010.
Rawlings and his caretaking counterpart Darren Crocker were both denied victory yesterday in a remarkable finish in which North's David Hale had a mark taken off him for interference to his opponent, Jarrod Silvester, with about 20 seconds remaining.
Richmond's Mitch Morton had scored the tying goal with just under a minute remaining, the Tigers having squandered a seven goal half-time lead. North took the lead when Leigh Harding booted its 12th goal with one minute and 20 seconds left. This was the third consecutive season in which the Tigers had drawn.
Both coaches said little about the contentious decision against Hale, who asked Crocker if he had seen the free. Overall, however, Richmond fared worse on the free kick count, and its fans were upset with holding-the-ball decisions throughout the game.
Rawlings said the Tigers viewed the game as a loss, not a draw, and suggested that extra time would be preferable to draws. But the upshot was that he believed Richmond was "improving immensely" and could push for a finals berth in 2010 when, unless caretaker Rawlings lands the job, it will have a new coach.
"They are improving immeasurably. Where it stacks up in a final, I don't know. I don't think they'd be that far short of next year. I think that we could be an eighth, between an eighth-10, if you got a good run maybe 11-12 wins next year.
"At this stage, we're trying to put a process in place that's going to allow them to be good moving forward But as long as we keep on this path of improving the group and making them understand what's going to give the playing group and the club sustainable success, that's our main agenda.
Rawlings said this was tantamount to a defeat, especially in view of the seven-goal lead the Tigers held after a scintillating first half in which Richard Tambling was best afield and youngsters Tyrone Vickery and Jayden Post impressed from a future perspective.
"Definitely no doubt mate," Rawlings said, when asked if this was like a loss. "Put the effort in during the week, with your preparation physically and our own intelligence of the match committee So you commit to a lot and then you get into a position to win after having three losses against some good opposition, and you don't. That's very, very unfortunate. And that's the flattest I've seen the group. Today they were devastated."
The Tiger coach said they had chances to ice the game Tom Hislop, Tambling and Robin Nahas missing late shots, and Jack Riewoldt dropping a chest mark. "We had our moments to still be able to possibly impact the scoreboard . . . and win the game. Just couldn't take it."
Rawlings said extra time would be better than draws. "I think it'd be great two minutes each way or first score. It'd be gold. I'd rather feel worse for losing, or elated for winning, than sitting here feeling nothing. It's a good idea."
Crocker concurred that a draw was like a defeat for his team, which has narrowly failed to win the last three games, including last week's loss to Hawthorn.
"It's a pretty empty feeling. But when you've been where we've been over the last three weeks with the tight finishes and been in winnable positions at some stage at each one of those games, it does, it feels like a loss, because we've let another opportunity slip."
Crocker was consoled by the second half, which almost produced what would have been North's biggest comeback victory. "The second half is the type of brand of football that we want to play, but it's inexcusable the way we played in the first half, which was just playing safe, uncompetitive football."

Right, well, it's done. Not my best effort, but I'm getting better, I think. Really got into it at the end there. Does everyone see my little rural jokes? Do you city-folks know what the 4-H Club is? How about FFA? Well, I'll let you see what you can see before I fill y'all in. --Doctor Phineas Crank 21:41, 28 Sep 2004 (EDT)
4-H Club Joke
An early edition of the 4-H manual allegedly read: "In order to start a club, you need a sponsor. This can be a man or a woman or a combination of both." --John Cowan 23:24, 28 Sep 2004 (EDT)
Now, that's funny! I didn't think anyone would even know what 4-H was here, much less come up with a gem like that. Most of the betrothal speech is lifted from the 4-H pledge, though heavily edited. How about FFA? Or in this case FDFG. ^_^ --Doctor Phineas Crank 08:34, 29 Sep 2004 (EDT)
- I've certainly heard of the FFA, but I can't say the phrase "future darseed farmers of Ghyll" jumped out at me as an allusion to it, no. --John Cowan 08:07, 30 Sep 2004 (EDT)
The funny thing is, I went to college with a bunch of farm kids but never really heard about this stuff from them. They were all trying to get away from the farm, after all. Then, my sister married, and subsequently divorced, a redneck. Their son was involved in both at one point or another. What's even funnier is that I was the only kid in my Boy Scout Troop to earn Farm Mechanics merit badge! --Doctor Phineas Crank 08:34, 29 Sep 2004 (EDT)
- Hey, just because I live on an island off the coast of North America doesn't make me totally clueless about what goes on there. --John Cowan 08:07, 30 Sep 2004 (EDT)

Accessories and Mounts
Our fiberglass masts are an extremely popular and still expanding new product line, and we have frequently been asked for bases and mounts of various types. While we do not offer these accessories, as hardware is not a line of our expertise, they are becoming available from a number of other companies who are familiar with our mast lines, and are tailoring products which can be used with many of our masts in temporary or portable applications.
There are 3 steps when calculating shipping.
Step 1
Determine your shipping zone. Refer to the chart on the following page: http://www.mgs4u.com/upsinfo.htm
Step 2
For 8 foot and 6 foot goods, once you have your shipping zone, refer to the chart below for the shipping cost to your zone (for anywhere from one piece to 70 pounds of goods). The only other charge is a flat $2.00 per order flat-rate packing charge.
For goods below 58 inches shipping costs are determined by the total weight of the goods. You can estimate your shipping cost on the FedEx Website using "30068" in the "From" zip code section, your zip code in the "To" zip code section, and estimating the shipping weight of your package (Figure that the box and packaging weighs 3 pounds.)
Step 3
For 8 foot and 6 foot goods, you will need the full lengths to be shipped, which can be transported by normal carriers such as FedEx. (This length does not require the far more expensive motor-freight shipping that longer goods would.) While FedEx does transport 8 foot and 6 foot long goods, they are considered "oversize" and have additional handling and shipping charges added because of the "dimensional weight". Figure that you can ship a single 8 foot or 6 foot good, or up to 70 pounds of goods in the same box for that same oversize shipping cost. (Figure that the box and packaging weighs 3 pounds.) With this in mind, many people combine orders with friends or family, and everyone splits the shipping cost for a SUPER deal!
Note: Note: The 2 foot and 4 foot goods are not considered "oversize" when shipping. The shipping costs for the 2 foot and 4 foot goods are determined by total weight (The weight of the goods plus 3 pounds for the box and packing). The 2 foot and 4 foot goods can be ordered along with the 8 foot and 6 foot goods to achieve the most yield of the 70 pound maximum weight when ordering oversized goods.

Hi everyone! My name is Jasmin and I am a second year student here at WSU College of Veterinary Medicine. I am originally from Belfair, a smaller town on the west side of the state. As prospective students, I'm sure your eager to hear my story and everyone else's on how they did it. So here it goes.
I didn't consider veterinarian as a career possibility until my sophomore year of high school. I have always been around animals. My family has a small hobby farm with everything from horses, chickens, pigs, sheep, goats, and pheasants, to the occasional cow. I was an active member of 4H for 8 years and have been barrel racing since middle school. My star barrel horse contracted Equine Herpes Virus-1 in 2005, and it was trying to nurse her back health that made me realize, I could do this. I could be a vet. After all, it couldn't get much worse than removing feces right?
That was my starting point, I know most people probably had some sort of experience like me and it came down to hard work and personal drive to get them through those tough classes (for me it was focusing in chemistry). I came to WSU after doing two years at a community college with the running start program. This program allowed me to graduate from high school with both my high school diploma and an Associate of Science. I graduated from WSU with a Bachelors in Animal Science in May 2009.
During my undergraduate time at WSU, I became involved in Block and Bridle, a livestock industry club. I loved the opportunity to handle cattle and make contacts in the industry. The summer before I applied to veterinary school, I shadowed at two clinics close to home to make sure veterinary medicine was still what I wanted to do. I shadowed at both an AAHA accredited small animal practice and a mixed animal practice. I enjoyed both experiences and continue to work at on during school breaks.
I would like to become a large animal veterinarian and deal with food animals and horses. I don't mind the idea of a mixed animal practice, but large animal is my primary interest. WSU's vet school is a great because it allows students to study all species, so I don't have to focus on one just yet.
So that's my story of my vet school pursuit. However, my advice to prospective students is to see everyone's story, and realize that people get in from all walks of life. Our class had ages 20-40 admitted with a varying GPA and experience level. So take everyone's story as evidence that everyone is different and don't stress the details. And lastly GO COUGS!

Hi, my name is Michelle and I am currently a second year student at Washington State University's College of Veterinary Medicine. I am from Bellevue, WA and love visiting the west side of the state when I have time. I also attended Washington State University for my undergraduate education focusing on Animal Sciences with a Pre-Veterinary emphasis. I applied to veterinary school after attending three years of undergraduate as a junior and was accepted. I elected to not finish my Bachelors of Science and just start veterinary school.
My interest in veterinary medicine started when I was in high school and our family adopted our very first dog. That's right; I didn't get my first dog until I was 16! For as long as I could remember, science has always been my favorite subject and medicine always amazed me. I began working as a veterinary assistant/non-certified veterinary technician at a small animal hospital in Bellevue the summer after my first year of college and continue to work at the same place every summer, including any school vacations.

Hi, my name is Dani and I am a third year vet student at Washington State University College of Veterinary Medicine. I also went to WSU for undergrad, and I received my Bachelor's in Zoology, with a pre-vet emphasis. I decided to go to vet school when I began working at a veterinary clinic part-time just after high school. During that job I realized I loved to work with animals and people and I wanted to do it for my profession. I chose WSU CVM because it is an awesome school that really emphasizes the students and their individual success. More...

My name is Abbey and I am a member of the Class of 2011 at Washington State University College of Veterinary Medicine. I just finished my second year and I have loved every minute of my vet school experience! I guess an important thing prospective students may want to know is how I got here in the first place.
I grew up in southern Idaho in a town called Twin Falls. When I was in first grade, I dressed up as a veterinarian for Halloween, so I suppose you could say I am one of those people who have always known what I wanted to do for a career. I graduated high school in 2003 and then headed up to Moscow, Idaho for my freshman year at the University of Idaho. At UI, I majored in pre-veterinary science and biology. I was involved in many biology departmental-related clubs, as well as being involved in the residence hall system. More...
