It's simple, and free.
The Single Act of Luxembourg, which, by 1987, had been ratified by all EEC member countries, is the vehicle which is designed to bring about increased European economic integration. Should all go as planned, all of the economic barriers which continue to separate the member countries of the EEC will disappear on 1 January 1992 (Tully, 1988). The advent of more complete economic integration in the EEC is intended to bring about the free movement of goods, services, capital, and labor within the Community, and provide more than 320 million Europeans with free commerce similar to interstate commerce enjoyed in the United States (Doyle, 1987).
Although details of taxation programs and welfare schemes are not specifically addressed in the Single Act, the Act does 5
proscribe the use of such factors to deny the free movement of goods and services within the Community (Gelb, 1988). The Single Act also prescribes reciprocity between member countries. Thus, persons who work in a member country other than their citizenship country will be entitled to all of the social benefits of the host country, and will be taxed the same as host country citizens. Further, business firms will be treated in a similar manner.
While tax levels are not prescribed, a levelling will likely occur, as a means of precluding industry flight to lowertax countries (Taxing work, 1988). Similarly, member countries with lower levels of social services will likely attempt to raise standards to preclude labor flight (Wooing winners, 1988).
The EEC has declared that the Single Act is not intended to create a fortress Europe. The statement is likely true on its face; however, the potential for the development of a more closed economic community is clearly present (A United States of Europe, 1988). An inability to reach agreement with the United States on agricultural subsidies, as an example, would not be as problematic to an EEC characterized by complete ec...

Part One: Connecting Theory and Practice
Hirsh and Nation(1992) "In order to comprehend a text and guess unknown words from context- learners need to know 95% of text : 1 unknown word every 2 lines."
"Lexical knowledge is the strongest predictor of readability/ inability" Tom Cobb 2007
Nation, Schmitt, Folse, Laufer, and others recommend the explicit teaching, practicing and testing of the most frequently occurring vocabulary at the early stages of language learning, because a lack of basic lexis prevents learners comprehending reading texts and using learning and communicative strategies successfully. This is often called the "learner's paradox" as language learners need to understand texts in order to work out the meaning of words and notice patterns of use, but they cannot do these things because they do not know what the meaning of the words in the text. Research strongly indicates that the acquisition of vocabulary based on extensive reading and listening is not as efficient as focused instructed vocabulary learning which includes activities that encourage the conscious studying and reviewing of target vocabulary items.
Vocabulary learning is facilitated by periodic recycling activities which form part of an "expanded rehearsal" process in which words are reviewed on the same day, next day, 7 days later, 28 days later etc. because students need multiple exposures to a word to be able to use it productively in real time communciation. Atkins and Baddeley suggest 11 encounters are necessary whilst Nation says that 5-16 encounters are required. Regardless of the number, lexicographers all agree upon the need for the regular lexical item recall which firms up the neurological link between the form of the word and its corresponding meaning. E-learning helps educators provided these multiple encounters with words in a fun, gaming manner which helps students " cope with prodigious amounts of information within an artificially short time" Folse 2007. And also, as repeated exposure to and the use of target vocabulary are necessary for learning to take place, a certain amount of timetabling work is necessary. Since vocabulary is reviewed at specific intervals, students (and teachers) need to keep records of the dates when lists of vocabulary were first taught and the dates one week and one month later when they will be practised again. I hope that computerised calendar systems will make this easier in the future.
The first stage in learning L2 vocabulary is understanding meaning. Traditionally this has been done using L2 definitions or through both a definition in L2 and a translation of the word in L1. Research shows that initial L2-L1 translation work and the meaning mapping of the new word against the mother tongue is an extremely effective first step in the process of learning vocabulary. There has been resistance to L2-L1 meaning mapping since the 1960s possibly for two reasons:
so many native speaker English teachers did not speak the L1 of their students
students in international classes in the USA, UK or other English-speaking countries were from a variety of L1 backgrounds and so a common language did not exist.
However, it can be and effective, efficient initial vocabulary learning strategy with online programmes since well-developed bilingual dictionaries and materials can be more easily found. Research suggests that initial L1 translation work is more effective and faster than L2 definitions and pictures, films, graphics, gestures, movement, examples, and guessing meaning from context. However, after the initial encounter with a word, trying to learn the L2 vocabulary meanings from context, definitions or examples in isolated sentences are really important methods to help learn the appropriate use and word grammar of L2 vocabulary lexical items. In an iPad class, students can work in pairs and have one screen with the target word lists and the other showing a bilingual dictionary. Flashcards and word books often have a translation facility or section added to them.
Corpus linguistics has really changed the way we decide which lexis to forefront. Computer compiled word frequency lists of the most common 2000, 3000 words in English have been created using data from the analyses of large collections of texts such as the British National Corpus, which comprises 100 million words of text. Teaching and studying high-frequency vocabulary has a higher, faster surrender value for learners. University prep programs and the course books and graded readers that cater to them, often focus on the most frequent 2,000 words. Our institution has compiled unit lists drawn from the most frequent words. These lists can easily be uploaded to a variety of Apps and/or websites.
When these course book unit target vocabulary lists are introduced several days prior to students reading or listening to the texts which incorporate them text comprehension increases because the brain has had time to transfer the new vocabulary from short term to long term memory. Realising how much the memorised words make reading or listening easier provides contextualised repeat exposures and can improve motivation to learn and encourages further vocabulary study. This preparation for learning, so that knowledge studied in isolation can be utilised communicatively in class, is one of the main pillars of flipped classes.
The forgetting that begins immediately after encountering a new word, can be reduced by in-class activities at the end of the vocabulary lesson. The traditional activities done with the words on the lists such as: L2-L1 definition matching exercises, spelling test dictations, multiple choice sentence completion activities, L2 word-definition matching, word-picture matching or gap fill are now frequently found in gaming formats in lexical Apps.
A major advantage of computerised activities over static paper-based word lists is that digital formats can vary the order of the words as students learn them. This is important as words in lists tend to prime students for the next word. For example word A is always followed by word B. so word A will always prepare students for the word B. The digital randomization of words means students have to recall meanings without such unconscious prompting.
Part Two: A Review of Several Apps
Teacher created unit specific/ week specific lexical lists created in Numbers
- Easy to create a table on which students can write definitions and sample sentences, sentence grammar- noun, era, adjective etc.
- Easy for students to find words within a spreadsheet using the search function
- Very visual when students colour words belonging to lexical sets and words connected with ways of describing places, talking about the past etc. one colour.
- Easy to resort data according to alphabetical order, countable/ uncountable, word grammar, known words unknown words etc.
Tip. Add a date column to the spreadsheet and give each month a significance e.g. One: January = countable nouns, February = uncountable nouns, March = non- nouns.
E.g. Two: January = well known words, February = partially known words, March = unknown words. Tap on the screen just above the date column, select "sort" and the vocabulary will be arranged into the designated groups of words for the students to work with.
- Easy to send to students via email or have students retrieve spreadsheets from a platform such as iFiles, Dropbox or Ebackpack. and have them open it in Numbers
- Difficult to add images without making the spreadsheets so long that you can only see a few words per page.
- Not possible to add voice recordings for pronunciation.
- Is not included in the general iPad spotlight search.
Teacher created unit specific/ week specific lexical lists created in Spelling City( Free Version)
- Lists are easy to construct. Teachers can embed their own definitions and sentences or use those provided by the App.
- Target vocabulary can be introduced, practiced and tested through 8 different activities covering meaning, spelling and pronunciation.
- Gaming element keeps students engaged.
- Students get instant feedback on their performance.
- Recycling vocabulary is possible due to variety of activities and the ease with which teachers can modify definitions or sample sentences, so that students are working with slightly new material.
- If the login name and password are shared between a group of teachers, everyone has access to the website and can create lists to be utilized by all members of the group and their students.
- Accessed through the App. Students login using a common user name and password. Students login each time they access the App.
- Images cannot be added to the definitions
- The new update has removed the word definition match and so this App cannot be used as a presentation tool. Only as a follow up tool.
- Only a limited number of lists created by other teachers are available.
Teacher created unit specific/ week specific lexical lists created in Quizlet ( Free Version)
- Lists are easy to construct. Teachers can add their own definitions and images from Flickr.
- Target vocabulary can be introduced and practiced through a flashcards and a scattered matching game.
- 'Learn it' mode prompts students with either images or definitions. Students can control the type of prompt they require.
- Answers can be typed in or entered orally using the built in dictation microphone.
- Gaming element keeps students engaged.
- Students get instant feedback on their performance.
- Vocabulary lists are easily edited.
- There is access to many more lists created by other teachers worldwide, than in Spelling City. For example, 25 lists cover different units of Headway Beginner.
- Accessed through the App. Students login using a common user name and password. Students only need to log in once, afterwards they type in the specific list name.
- Definitions and sample sentences are not automatically added by the system and so more preparation time is needed when creating lists than in Spelling City.
Teacher created vocabulary companion (similar to those provided as a separate vocabulary booklet at the back published course books.) developed in Creative Book Builder and stored as an iBook on each students bookshelf.
A good reference tool for lower level students who do not have access to a low level commercially produced dictionary and whose English is not extensive enough to cope with the free dictionaries provided on the Web.
- A good way of developing basic dictionary skills, such as scanning the A-Z organization pattern, and distinguishing definitions from example sentences.
- When creating the vocabulary companion, teachers will be aware of lexis already covered in class and add relevant unit references, synonyms, antonyms etc.
The same images, example sentences etc. can be used in the iBook, on flashcards and other worksheets aiding student recall of target vocabulary.
Once created they are permanent and infinitely reusable across classes, and semesters.
- They are a good resource for class based vocabulary games, student to student dictation activities and simple cover the word, recall the word, check the word activities.
- Creating the book and editing it later in the light of new insights into how vocabulary is recycled throughout the syllabus can be time consuming.
- Creative Book Builder Books can be difficult to share. They need to be opened in an iPad email account or both sent from and received by the same type of institutional email.
Student generated lists and vocabulary logs.
Spelling lists created in Spelling Free
- Students add words they personally frequently misspell or want to learn to spell
E.g. Teachers can highlight words to be added to Spelling Free Notebook when correcting a student's written work. Students look up the correct word in a dictionary and type it or copy paste it into a list. Similarly, they can use the App in conjunction with reading exercises.
- Spoken renditions of most words are available. Users can add their own recordings of the word.
- Definitions and or sentences can be recorded in place of the pronunciation of a word.
- During spelling tests, students control how many times they hear a word.
- Immediate feedback is given and a tracking system presents misspelt words more than those correctly spelt.
- Correctly spelt words are immediately starred.
- A history function provides evidence of student work.
- Results can be emailed.
- Images or written definitions cannot be added.
- Lists cannot be shared or downloaded and used within the App.
In conclusion, Apps which facilitate the learning of lexis help teachers and learners put the theory behind vocabulary learning into practice. In addition, digital tracking systems make lexical learning tailor made, consequently alleviating the prohibitive task of recycling so many new items per day. The gaming element and accompanying reward systems are motivating and the anytime, anywhere facility, allows students to keep to an "expanded rehearsal" process in which words are reviewed on the same day, next day, 7 days later, 28 days later etc. However, one caveat is that we need to put word lists onto a number of Apps, and still use varied approaches to prevent App burnout.

SEOUL – Movies from South Korea and Mongolia won $30,000 New Currents Awards for emerging filmmakers at Asia's largest film festival.
Busan International Film Festival organizers said Saturday that the festival's biggest prizes went to "Pascha," by South Korean director Ahn Seon-kyoung, and "Remote Control" by Mongolia's Sakhya Byamba. It is the first time a Mongolian movie entered and won the competition in the festival's 18 years.
The awards, given to first- or second-time Asian directors, show the festival's efforts to discover and support the region's new talents.
The organizers said "Pascha," an unusual love story between a 40-year-old woman and a 19-year-old man, won the jury's heart with its highly original expression. They said "Remote Control" neatly portrayed tensions between reality and fiction.
The jury, led by Iranian director Rakhshan Bani-Etemad, picked "Transit" from the Philippines as a special mention for the section, citing Hannah Espia's drama about migrant families in Israel.
The 10-day festival that ended Saturday drew more than 200,000 visitors for the second straight year, even as a rare October typhoon forced organizers to reschedule some events and close outdoor booths by corporate sponsors four days before the event closed.
The fair closed Saturday evening with "The Dinner," South Korean director Kim Dong-hyun's independent feature.

For write to registry I use "shell-execute" and "reg" utility. I forgot what the problem is to use "write-resource", but it was. "read-resource" from registry I use less frequently, but no doubt, it needed, for example, for read system information. write-resource/read-resource I use mainly for ini-files. I plan replace this method of store preferences to more intelligent, but anyway, I think there is other users, that need this functionality. In addition, it may be need, to read ini-files that was created by another applications. I found "GetProfileString" and "WritePrivateProfileString" in winapi. It seems not too difficult to use they for this purpose.

River Oaks accountant Bob Martin may make his living balancing other folks' books and tax accounts, but he has the soul of a reporter, albeit a conservative one. He hangs around KSEV radio and maintains a wide circle of media pals. He also may be the only person in Houston who has developed a time schedule to record all local TV news broadcasts every evening. Martin makes regular appearances on KHOU as a talking head on accounting themes, and feeds reporters a weekly stream of suggestions for stories. In the current mayoral cycle Martin is backing Michael Berry, and is not shy about recommending media strategy to the first-term councilman.
Houston's signature waterway has been a murky mystery since before the Allen brothers followed it upstream and planted the future Space City on its banks. But at least back then its green-brown waters were clear of the flotsam and jetsam of modern civilization. Starting this summer, a vessel called The Mighty Tidy is aiming to rectify the situation. It cruises the bayou five days a week from Shepherd to the East Loop, scooping up tons of floating garbage. It's also equipped with attachments to pick trash off the bayou banks and out of overhanging trees. Credit its unusual colors to those zany Art Guys, Michael Galbreth and Jack Massing, who turned the quarter-million-dollar boat into a flamingo-pink nautical vacuum cleaner.
Talk about perfect timing. On June 26, just two days before the 25th anniversary of Houston's Pride Parade, the U.S. Supreme Court knocked down Texas's homosexual sodomy law by a 6-3 vote. The law, which outlawed sodomy only when practiced by gays, was challenged by two Houston men named John Lawrence and Tyron Garner, who were arrested in 1998 when police discovered them having sex in Lawrence's apartment. Speaking for the court, Justice Anthony M. Kennedy declared, "The state cannot demean [homosexuals'] existence or control their destiny by making their private sexual conduct a crime." While conservative Justice Antonin Scalia said the court had "taken sides in the culture war" and had "largely signed on to the so-called homosexual agenda," activists across the country pooh-poohed him and gathered to celebrate. At a City Hall rally in Houston, Ray Hill, a longtime local warrior for gay rights, happily declared, "We can't -- by this decision -- ever go back."
Alicia Lee's son is a resident at Willow River Farms, a division of the nonprofit Center Serving Persons with Mental Retardation. Every fall the residents of this Brookshire, Texas, facility made fruitcakes. That is, until Barbara Bush, for whom Lee had once volunteered at the White House, suggested they expand their repertoire to include gingersnaps. Six years ago, Lee sent a tin of Willow River Farms gingersnaps to Bush at Kennebunkport. The former first lady liked them so much, she sent out tins to all of her friends at Christmastime. Since then Lee has also added mouthwatering cheese snaps to the Farms' list of offerings. The cookies sell for between $15 and $25 a tin. And last year, Lee sold $215,000 worth of treats. The proceeds have paid for electronic doors for wheelchair residents, extra hospital beds and clinic refurbishing. Get your holiday orders in now.
If it's September, it must be Stanton Welch -- as artistic director of Houston Ballet, that is. But it was a long good-bye for now-emeritus artistic director Ben Stevenson. He first resigned back in February 2002, but a change of heart kept him here through June 2003. Well, in spirit at least. Stevenson wasn't around much after he resigned a second time and the board selected Welch as his replacement in January of this year. Other assignments, most notably with the Dallas-Fort Worth ballet, kept him on the road. It will be interesting to see what sort of continued presence Stevenson has at HB and how that will affect Welch's direction of the company. It's a tough job to take over from a living legend.
We like our quotes short, to the point and all-encompassing, and Dave Hickey's definition of Tex-Mex fills the bill on all three counts. In the Houston Press issue of December 26, 2002, in an attempt to clarify an earlier pithy quote ("Rock and roll is like Mexican food. As it improves in quality it stops being what it is"), the Texas-born critic said he meant to say Tex-Mex, not Mexican food. What's more, he likes Tex-Mex more than the stuff from across the Rio Grande. "My commitment is to Tex-Mex," he told the Press. "Which I define as the absence of fucking vegetables."

Well if no one wants to help me with the hda script error in my previous post, I thought of installing backtrack or booting it as a live CD using grub.
My idea: boot grub and boot the live cd of the hdd? Is that possible and practical?
P.S. Here is the thread which noone wanted to answer to... forums.remote-exploit.org/showthread.php?t=6609
usb install is the better solution sure for you .....
BTW my usb installer will be NOT released before the 21 of may, but beta testing versions are flying in this forum....(im currently integrating the whole language install 25 langs....)
EASY WAY >>> go windows(holy shit)
extract or mount iso
copy /boot and /BT directory onto usb(you need 700 Mo min, and format it to fat32)
cd to /boot directory ONTO USB
run bootinst.bat
you're done
hope helps
Watch your back, your packetz will belong to me soon... xD

How come it does not support firewire... common!
Thanks guys, at least this time you are being helpful... So none solved why the installation didn't work by booting the shell of the cd and then the rest of the hdd? I installed PCLinuxOS like that... Oh well...
I will try to get a 1gig flash drive and install the OS of of it...
The other thread that I made (a link in first post) it went OK, and booted (read the stuff of the hdd), but after it gave an hda_script error: invaliddep range or something like that (there is a picture in the other thread). I was thinking that it doesn't realy matter how I install the OS, it's just something wrong with my hdd since hda is hdd (I think)...
Thank you very much.
P.S. I am running PCLinuxOS currently...
No luck. I bought a 1gig U3 cruzer, booted up backtrack on another PC and installed the 700mb install to USB. It booted up and gave me the same "hda_codec invalid dep range SALSA" thing which I posted in the other thread...
Can someone pleeeeease help, I beg of you. I want all thos bluetooth hacks, preinstalled aircrack and madwifi distro. Pllllzzzzz.
EDIT: Wait a minute.... Do I have to format it to FAT32?!?! Or I can leave it in FAT?! What soft I use for formating? Can I just convert my C:\ from NTFS to FAT32 and then boot? Thanks again...
just a hint not a solution
sounds like soundcard driver pb (alsa)....maybe deactivate drivers at boot time will allow you to do the job..........
try to boot by
bt debug
go on until last step before error
at shell prompt type lsmod | grep *alsa*
it will list all alsa driver loaded >>> modprobe -r each one >>> go on after hiting ctrl D, if this works just add the incrimined drivers to modprobe blacklist in order to prevent load them.......
Watch your back, your packetz will belong to me soon... xD

A 20th-century genocide unfolds in 'Sandcastle'
Updated 3:51 pm, Friday, September 28, 2012
Somewhere deep in Chris Bohjalian's papers at Amherst College is his first stab at a novel about the Armenian genocide.
It was never published. And there's a reason for that.
"It's a terrible, terrible book," he said in a phone interview. "If you're a masochist or a scholar, you can read it."
He seems to have done much better on his second attempt.
Most of the best-selling "The Sandcastle Girls," his 15th book, is set during the 1915 genocide, in which 1.5 million Armenians were killed.
In a modern-day thread, a female novelist starts looking into that history as a way to make sense of her grandparents, an Armenian engineer and an American aid worker who met and fell in love while those events were unfolding.
The story has personal significance for Bohjalian, who is of Armenian heritage.
Putting some of his own story into the mix — the grandparents' home in the book is similar to his grandparents' home, for example — is one reason this novel works and his first attempt didn't, he said.
Entertainment Channel
"I didn't begin with the personal (then)," he said. "My grandparents were both genocide survivors. They took their stories to their grave. I will never know precisely what they endured in 1915."
The story has a much broader meaning as well, and that's why he wanted to try again. In the book, he frequently refers to the genocide as the "Slaughter You Know Next to Nothing About."
"There is a direct link between the Armenian genocide, the Holocaust, the killing fields of Cambodia, Serbia, Rwanda and Darfur," he said.
Making sure that the Armenian genocide isn't lost to history is important, he said. "Denial is the final stage in the genocide."

Discounts are given for administrative staff (including products). JagTag is available for payment as well as Visa and MasterCard. They will stay in the hotel but will be moving to another location in the hotel. The salon is full-service (hair, nails, tanning, and hair restoration) and takes walk-ins, but prefers appointments. Tansy thanked the salon for their support of the Staff Council.
Agenda Item V: Updates from the Associate Vice Chancellor for Facilities (Emily Wren, IUPUI Associate Vice Chancellor for Facilities)
· Wren reported there will be roof replacements at numerous buildings this summer. The E&T building may obtain a "green roof," which would be the largest in the state. A green roof is a roof that is placed over the existing roof which contains a layer of soil. Trays of plants (such as sedums) can be placed on the roof for beauty in both summer and winter, and will help cut down on cooling costs in the summer.
· Parking garages around campus will be repaired. The ambulatory garage is getting new revenue-controlled parking. The software used to control the parking should help with equipment breakdown. Riley Garage will receive the new parking controls.
· Ball Annex steps will be replaced. Other buildings will also have steps replaced.
· A design for primary and secondary signage is in the final stages of approval. The new signage will coincide with the opening of the new Cancer Center on University Boulevard and Michigan. Remaining signage around campus will be replaced after that.
· The Natatorium will have exhaust fan problems fixed for better air quality.
· The Ronald McDonald House is taking away their balconies due to age and will be replaced.
· Cavanaugh Hall will have air handling problems fixed. Some staff are relocating for the summer. Persons on the first floor of Cavanaugh will need to be sought out until better signage is located. Upper floors in Cavanaugh are not affected, but will have noise and dust problems due to the repairs. The repairs are estimated at six weeks.
· Wager asked about the bike trails on campus. Is there an update? Wren said there are talks with the master planners about narrowing to fewer lanes. Wager suggested a median be placed between the bike lanes and car lanes. Wren is open to suggestions that can be passed on to the master planners (firstname.lastname@example.com). You can contact Roger Schmenner as well (email@example.com).
· McCool asked about signage for University College and its recent name change. Wren said she does not have an answer at this time, but a sign will be unveiled at some time.
· Canganelli asked if vending machines that were taken out in BS/SPEA building will be replaced (first floor). Wren does not know for sure at this time and asked that Canganelli send her an email with the specific room.
· Herrell asked when Beautify IUPUI will be. Wren said it is usually in September. She spoke about persons who smoke on campus. Receptacles have been placed in "hot spots" to help the situation and seems to be working. Herrell said the event is fun and helps the workplace at the same time.
· Simmons said the second floor restroom in Bus/SPEA (closest to the ET building) are not totally accessible for the handicapped. There is automation to get into the restroom, but not to leave. The door also opens very slow. Wren will look into this. Wren said to call 8-1900 to report any problems with buildings.
· Please let Wren know if there are any topics that we would like her to address.
· Green Day is April 22 at the Campus Center. Vendors will be available to answer questions. Office supply vendors will be present as well.
· Tox Away Day is April 18.
Agenda Item VI: Reports submitted by Standing and Ad Hoc Committees:
· Bylaws: No report.
· Communications: No report.
· Diversity: Gary Curto, Chair, will have a formal report on the Town Hall on Classism. The turnout was not large, but those who attended were engaged. Herrell said she was speaking to Maggie Stimming who attended the master planning open house and was using her notes from the town hall to add comments on the message boards to the planners.
· Membership: No report. Sipes-Salter spoke of Walther's resignation.
· Rewards and Recognition: Christine Padgett, Chair, reported the Bepko Staff Council Spirit Award nominees are being reviewed and will have a winner announced next month. The Bohan Award and Nathan Award are the next awards/scholarships to be started. Tansy suggested the awards/scholarships should be added to the IUPUI Scholarship site.
· Special Events: Karen Best, Chair, spoke of the Blood Drive on April 17. She asked that each of us bring three people with us to give blood. Preregistration has not been good. There will be IUPUI Slinkies given out to everyone who gives blood. CVS will also have a goody bag for donors. Thacker asked if the 200+ goal is people or pints. Best said it is a pint goal and we have gotten really close in the past. She reiterated the locations of the blood mobiles that have been advertised in correspondence and flyers. The American Red Cross has approached the Staff Council to partner with them to have a blood drive as well. There was some discussion of the drive publicity not getting out there. Gibson said staff in Regenstrief did not know about the drive. Tansy said the SCEC is looking at this problem. They want to identify the representatives for each areas. We will also be working with Human Resources as well. Gibson said communication is not filtering from the representatives to their constituents. Padgett said we need a strong Communications Committee. Tansy said we are trying to recruit a staff member to be the Communications Committee chair. Sipes-Salter said that even though she has sent the information to her constituents, the word still does not sink in. Tansy asked that the Council members think about the committee and whether they would like to "serve by example." Most work is done via email. Best also mentioned there is interest in having a blood drive that corresponds with the Employee's Benefit and Health Fair. There are 700 people that normally attend that event. Tansy asked that Staff Council have a booth and help with the blood drive. After consideration, Elizabeth Wager said she will chair the Communications Committee.
· Staff Affairs: Lee Stone said the committee is still working on tuition reimbursement and short-term disability.
Agenda Item VII: Call for Reports from Other Committees
· Simmons reported on the Fine Arts and Craft Fair. A flyer and application is available on the Staff Council website, as well as Staff Council Newsletters. The deadline for a table may be extended depending on the demand.
Agenda Item VIII: [Discussion Item] Resolution for the Review of the Affirmative Action Office
Tansy presented a resolution designed by the IUPUI Faculty Council calling for the review of the Affirmative Action Office. Eckert gave background on the resolution from the IFC meeting of April 15. The resolution was passed by that body. McCurry stated a bylaw on resolution (Article 6, Section E). Discussion opened. Padgett asked for time to review the procedures. Thacker agreed. There was much discussion about needing time to review the resolution and proposed procedures. Tansy said that it is an opportunity for Staff Council to voice an opinion of procedures of the office. Herrell also said that we do not have to support the resolution of the IFC but can write our own if we support the resolution. Lack of attendance today was an issue as well to not vote today. Stone suggested sending the resolution by email for review. Tansy said there will not be a consensus today and that we should discuss the resolution and possibly vote via email with 2/3 vote the majority. Marguerete Watkins (from the Affirmative Action Office present for Margo Foreman) wanted to make sure that everyone knew that the original issue of the "book" being read by the staff member was not an issue of reading a book but of conduct. If a faculty or staff member does not like the decision of the AAO, the next avenue is the Chancellor. Canganelli said that the extra avenue is helpful as the cost of attorneys is great. We are asking for a review of the office, not to judge the conduct of the staff member. It was suggested that the Staff Council take part in the review of the office. Tansy said the Staff Council Executive Committee has been asked to meet Barbara Mawhinny (external reviewer) to talk about the process. Tansy is not able to attend, but others on the Executive Committee is able to attend. Curto said that to ask that the Chancellor do a review when one is already underway is fortuitous. He suggested writing a resolution of support to the Chancellor. Titus moved and Rey seconded that we go with the suggestion of Curto and vote on this at the next meeting.
Agenda Item IX: Report from Human Resources Administration (Ellen Poffenberger, Assistant Vice Chancellor for Human Resources / Chancellor's SC Administrative Designee Alternate)
No report.
Agenda Item X: Report from the Chancellor's Staff Council Academic Designee
No report.
Agenda Item XI: Report from IUPUI Faculty Council Liaison
No report.
Agenda Item XII: Old Business
· Gibson gave Walthers a business card for the State Fair to have a Staff Council Day at the Fair. Tansy will ask Walthers the progress of the initiative. Rey had information on whom to contact. The deadline was April 14, but it would still be worth a call.
Agenda Item XIII: New Business / Announcements / Hot Topics
· Dowling gave a flyer showing the deactivation of SUVON.
Agenda Item IVX: Adjournment
First Vice President Herrell (in the absence of Tansy) adjourned the meeting at 4:54 p.m.
Minutes prepared by Staff Council Coordinator, Karen Eckert

>Technical Support>Trouble uploading runs
On the road again...
Didn't know if this issue might be related to the horror story that was the system upgrade (I read all that happened and I am so thankful for you, Eric), but besides the fact that every now and then I get a "can't load page due to too many redirects" page, I also can't upload runs. The site recognizes my Garmin 610, recognizes how many new workouts to upload, but hangs on "uploading data to server."
I'm sure you've got bigger things to chase down than this, but I thought I'd give you some feedback that can hopefully help you.
Thanks again, Eric, for all you do for this community.
I have a love/hate relationship with running. I do it, but sometimes I love to hate it.

I'm having the same issue with data from my garmin 405.

Re: Latest Pro Football Central mock: Ravens get Arthur Brown
Prospect rankings are relative, not absolute. I evaluate Arthur Brown relative to the other players in his class both at his position and overall. I didn't say Minter was better than Brown, I think they're probably about equal overall. They just don't do the same things well--Minter is far more physical and tough, Brown is faster. Minter is technically more advanced than Brown and more ready to play 3-4 ILB right out of the gate. I think Brown is going to have a tough learning curve when he can't be totally reliant on his athleticism to make up for missteps (although FWIW, Alec Ogletree has the exact same issue.)
I've given solid, concrete reasons for my evaluation, and I've seen at least 6+ games worth of tape on all my top ILB prospects in the class. Arthur Brown is a good player, and I think he has nice potential for the NFL, but he's not a good fit for a pure 3-4 team and at any position other than 4-3 WILL he's going to have a learning curve in the NFL. That doesn't mean he sucks, he could EASILY turn out to be the top non-pass rushing LB from this class in 5 years, but how he's used and how he develops is going to be the difference with him.
Re: Latest Pro Football Central mock: Ravens get Arthur Brown
I have watched minter and he does quite a few things well but nothing great or amazing for me to make me want him in the first. I think he will only be average and with the first round pick I want someone who does something to an elite level, much like how you described the wideout scenario. Arthur brown will be an elite pass defender from MLB. Teo has elite instincts and that outs him above minter for me. Greene again I think will be a very very good pass defender in this league but not quite the run defender I think brown will be, so again I have him ahead of minter who just seems like a jack of all trades master of none type.
And no I haven't watched ogletree and hence why I don't comment on him.
And the reason I don't go into big long posts summarising what I've seen is because I post from mobile and this site is horrible on the phone, I hate writing long posts, this one write here is as long as you'll get from me on this site. I feel saying I like such and such is enough. Til all be worthless anyway because 9 times out of 10 the players we think they should draft aren't the picks they make come draft day. I don't have the time or patience to write detailed evaluations of what I see and think.
I like plenty of players, dislike a lot more, then I have some that I've fallen in love with, forgive me for keep going on about them, I didnt know my football knowledge was being judged by the length of my posts.

Re: Latest Pro Football Central mock: Ravens get Arthur Brown
I actually agree with a lot of your evaluations, clearly your football knowledge is not at all in question. I agree that Minter is not really worth a first round pick. I also agree that Brown has the potential to be a great pass defending ILB, and if the Ravens draft him I think he would start out as a nickel-type MLB until he develops his instincts and physicality between the tackles. I still think he's better as a 4-3 WILL but like Minter I would take him in the 2nd if I were the Ravens although he won't be there at #62.
I agree that Te'o's instincts are at the top of the class. I do think Greene is a very good run defender, you might be underrating him a bit in that aspect, and honestly the way you are with Arthur Brown, I probably am that way with Khaseem Greene. He is one of "my guys" and I love how he just makes plays. That's another thing I just haven't really seen out of Arthur Brown--zero career forced fumbles, zero career fumble recoveries, etc. although as I've said in other posts the Kansas State defense mostly asked Brown to stay back and read and react rather than make plays, so that's not totally his fault. I just wish he was more physical and had a better nose for the ball.
Honestly I would be very happy if the Ravens drafted ANY of Te'o, Brown, Minter, Greene, or Sio Moore, I just don't really think the Ravens should spend a 1st rounder on any of them, nor do I think other teams will. I think one of those guys will be available deep in the 2nd even if it requires a small trade up and that's what I'd like to see happen. There are also numerous later-round prospects I like a lot at ILB like Steve Beauharnais, AJ Klein, and Keith Pough.
Re: Latest Pro Football Central mock: Ravens get Arthur Brown
Greene was defiantly a bigger play maker, he was making plays everywhere. I just seen a lot of running around a blocker rather than taking him on and beating him. Maybe that's a sign of good instincts and angles knowing he didn't have to take the blocker on, but im not sure how well that will translate. I love Greene and I concede he's probably better value in the second that brown in the first, but I don't think Greene will be there.
Alonso could be the one to watch in the third.
Re: Latest Pro Football Central mock: Ravens get Arthur Brown
Finding out the Ravens view on these LB's will be one of the most intriguing things of this draft imo. We know they'll take at least one, we all have our preferences and different things we value, cant wait to see how they address the position.

Re: Latest Pro Football Central mock: Ravens get Arthur Brown
FWIW, Peter King says the Ravens will take Arthur Brown.
Looking at his mock I see a couple of things:
- First this is a pretty safe mock with the WR picks/Terrance Williams (see below) being the biggest exception. But no trades are projected so this is ultimately off base.
- A real run on WR's: Austin, Hunter, Patterson, Allen, Hopkins, and Terrance Williams are all picked before 32. Wow. Don't think I've seen all of those WR's picked in round 1 of any mock before this one. Plus Eifert is taken also. But not Robert Woods.
- Just one QB taken- Geno to...wait for it!...Cleveland. I can just read the headlines: "A new era dawns in Cleveland". And next year the headlines will read, "A new era dawns in Cleveland." And the year after that.... you get the idea.
- Eddie Lacy is picked by the Bengals. That's plausible.
- Just two safeties are taken, Vaccaro (Rams) and Cyprien (Cowboys). So Elam slides past us to round 2.
- Of the ILB's only Te'o (Minnesota) is picked before we pick Brown. Ogletree and Minter: welcome to round 2!
- Steelers take Jarvis Jones. Pretty safe guess there.
- On the DL, Star Lotulelei slides waaaaaay down to GB at 26. If that happens I see the Ravens and other teams looking to trade up for him. Note: this mock does not include trades.
- Jesse Williams falls out of round 1.
- Of the OT's just 4 are mocked in round 1. Watson and Pugh slide to round 2 to join Armstead, Kyle Long, and possibly Bakhtiari there. That's a lot of OL talent jamming up round two Ozzie...
- Players who missed out on round 1 (and thus the Ravens did not pick in favor of Brown) that are sometimes mocked there: Ogletree, Minter, Carradine, J Williams, Hayden, Jamar Taylor, Elam, Woods, Pugh, Watson. This restates the fact that by the time the Ravens pick (if they don't trade up) there will be a pool of 8-10 plausible 1st round picks for them to choose from. Practically every mock out there shows a similar if slightly varied pool of available players at the bottom of round 1. Doesn't that make trading down more likely? Yep.
Re: Latest Pro Football Central mock: Ravens get Arthur Brown
Jesse Williams won't fall out of round one. The second is where he should be going. he would be a reach in round 1

Radiohead ditch 'pay what you want' for new album
British rock group Radiohead said Monday they will release a new album online this week -- but abandoned the experiment they made with their last record when they let fans decide the price.
In a surprise announcement on their website, the band said "The King of Limbs", their eighth album, could be downloaded for £6 ($9, 7 euros) from Saturday.
In October 2007 Radiohead caused a major stir in the music industry when they told listeners they could pay whatever they wanted to download their album "In Rainbows".
At the time the website said "It's up to you" in place of a price.
A survey soon afterwards showed that about a third of people paid nothing for the downloaded album, with the average price being four pounds.
Some industry figures criticised the band, saying the precedent of allowing fans to pay what they wanted could be dangerous for artists trying to protect their interests at a difficult time.
The four-piece band formed in Oxford, central England, in the 1980s and reached global stardom with hit albums OK Computer and Kid A, featuring gloomy, atmospheric sounds and Yorke's high-pitched voice.
"The King of Limbs" will also be available on vinyl and CD from May 9 via the XL independent record label, in a special edition featuring more than 600 pieces of artwork.

CANTON TWP. -- Snow covered the ground around the building, but Urban Meyer displayed a sunny and warm disposition shortly after he took the podium to address the Pro Football Hall of Fame Club for the first time as Ohio State head football coach Monday.
"I've gotten to live in so many great places, but it all comes back to Ohio," Meyer smiled. "In Ohio, this is football in its purest form."
Meyer enters his second season at Ohio State with a 116-23 record. He won at Bowling Green, Utah and Florida and revived Ohio State last season.
With the majority of the estimated turnout of 370 in Tozzi's restaurant wearing red, Meyer briefly touched on the Buckeyes, who are currently going through spring practice.
"I feel good about the offense because we have so much carryover from last year and they know what to expect, but we lost a bunch of good players on defense," he warned.
After sitting out the 2011 season to work as a network television college football analyst, Meyer guided Ohio State to a 12-0 record in his first year.
While the record was perfect, the season was a work in progress. The Buckeyes weren't bowl eligible last season and Meyer's focus was the returning seniors.
"They could have gone anywhere in the country and immediately be eligible because (Ohio State was bowl ineligible for 2012), but they all stayed," Meyer recalled.
But Ohio State football changed its offensive identity with Meyer. Implemented was the shotgun spread as the base offense, replacing the I-formation the Buckeyes ran under the four previous head coaches and one interim head coach.
The transition was difficult.
"Our offense looked like a clown show at the beginning and I caught a lot of (heat) for saying that, but I was just being honest," Meyer said.
The defense wasn't much better in the first half of the season.
"We were very poor defensively the first six games," Meyer added. "We missed a lot of tackles against California (in the third game)."
It turned around for the better after senior defensive end John Simon genuinely spilled his emotions following the 35-28 win over California.
"John Simon was tougher than tough, playing with a shoulder injury he wouldn't even talk about," Meyer recounted. "He's 6-4 and 265 pounds and is starting to lose it in the locker room. He gave so much to the team and was totally committed to it."
Simon's emotional outburst helped Meyer redirect his priorities."
It made me realize I wasn't as committed," Meyer said seriously. "The head coach was more worried about putting in a special play and didn't spend enough time on bringing this football team together."
Simon impressed Meyer with his commitment immediately. It was a process with Zach Boren, another senior and the returning starting fullback.
"Zach Boren had a negative attitude and wouldn't open up his chest to (show commitment), until the John Simon issue and a speech by (former Ohio State running back) Butler By'not'e)," said Meyer, who added. "We had just beaten Nebraska, but we didn't have enough linebackers. I took a walk with Zach Boren before practice and he said, 'I'll do anything to help the team and within seven minutes, be was our starting 'Mike' (middle) linebacker."
Simon's immediate dedication and Boren's about-face attitude also validated what Meyer thought about the senior class.
"We had a great group of seniors who had genuine love for the university and their teammates," he added.
Turning his attention back to transitioning from last season to 2013, Meyer has been pleased with the maturation of junior quarterback Braxton Miller.
"He got away with a lot of unsound fundamental things like running around, but he's become better at (avoiding) that and we've been working with him on his throwing," Meyer explained. "He's a good kid with a 3.3 grade-point-average and no 'off-field' issues and wants to improve."
Miller will have junior wide out Devin Smith, a two-year standout at Massillon, as a speedy offensive weapon.
"We have to get a lot faster on offense, Devin Smith-fast," Meyer said. "We signed three guys who can run 10.5 or faster (in the 100), so we're getting better."
Fragel is gone, but the other four starting offensive linemen will return.
"We're going to live and die with our offensive line and that's not a bad thing," Meyer summarized.
Simon and the rest of the starting defensive line is gone, but Meyer is optimistic about the future of that unit with sophomores Noah Spence, Adolphus Washington and Tommy Schutt.
"The good news is we recruited well, but we do have a lot of young guys out there," he cautioned.
Meyer confided Ohio State has talent, but the secret to success will be who steps up and shows senior leadership to help the Buckeyes morph into a team.
"Simon was unique and we had other leaders like Boren, (linebacker) Etienne Sabino and (tackle) Reid Fragel," Meyer lauded. "We have (offensive tackle) Jack Mewhort, a guy to watch. We weren't the most talented team last year, but we had great leadership and we need to have that type of leadership this year."
