Introducing The Kristen Stewart/Rupert Sanders Fence Photo Conspiracy Theory
According to this conspiracy theory video, "sometimes what seems absurd to most people is the very truth." You can watch the video and judge for yourself if you believe those now infamous photos of K-Stew and Rupert Sanders up against the fence are the "very truth." While poorly made, this painstaking exploration of every minute discrepancy in the fence photos provides a compelling argument. If not compelling, at least fun to consider.
Was this whole cheating scandal a publicity stunt for the benefit of all careers involved or legit houghmagandy? You be the judge. [WOW]

Brass Ensembles
Featuring the finest musicians at Cal Poly, the 20-piece brass ensemble performs for concerts and recitals on campus and throughout the San Luis Obispo community. The group's repertoire is an eclectic mixture of old and new, ranging from Gabrieli and Bach to Hazell and Sousa. The brass chamber music program also includes quintets, trumpet ensembles and mixed brass choirs (8 to 14 players).
Brass chamber ensembles are open by audition to students participating in Cal Poly large ensembles. These groups provide students with focused training in rehearsal and performance of chamber ensemble literature, quality music written specifically for brass instruments. Emphasis is placed on independence of each performer and clear communication across the ensemble. Specific instrumentation for the current quarter is posted on the Instrumental Ensembles Board.
Auditions will be held over winter break and during the first week of classes. Students should contact Mr. Woodruff for specific information. As members of these ensembles, trombone players may be expected to (learn to) read tenor clef. Euphonium players may be expected to read in treble clef. Trumpet players may have opportunities to play secondary horns (Flügelhorn, C trumpet, Eb trumpet, picc, etc.). State-owned instruments are available.
Audition slots for Fall 2014 are posted outside the Band Office. Audtions will be heard Monday through Wednesday during the first week of classes.

T. Alfred Norman
A City Once Spoken Of - Poem by T. Alfred Norman
Every day shines with the lights of heaven
Every question imagined - unanswered.
Shaded under the tree of life
No more bloody blades, no more war
No more strife
Our spirits glowing on the golden shores
Warming and melting the crystal snow
Joyous and free the city forever keeps
Nature natural with secrets of the deep
A musical melody heavenly notes float
To this shade tree, I pause to whisper
Of a city once spoken of, a righteous city
Full of grace, hope, peace and love.
People never will know twilight, sin, pain, death
Again. Thoughts comfort my mind with tender flight.
My body does cherish these Earthly times, but I
Must leave their rhymes behind, as the bird of my soul
Roams skyward.
Truly if you have heard a faint whisper from above,
Set your sights on that city, and fly like a dove.

Will Ferrell, Zach Galifianakis kick off 'Campaign' tour
LOS ANGELES – Let the campaign games begin, Ferrell-style.
Tuesday morning, Will Ferrell took stock of the beautiful day that greeted the launch of his fake political tour. "Thank you for coming out to the historic Grove," joked the suited-up comedian from a red, white and blue-cloaked stage, looking around at the spotless outdoor shopping complex.
"Where even the homeless people are fake," seconded Zach Galifianakis.
It was Day 1 of their Whistle Stop Tour, a promotion for the comedy The Campaign, out Aug 10. The two comedians joked around with gathered members of the press and fans as they took their spots behind a presidential-style podium, (somewhat) in character as North Carolina politicians vying for office.
In the film, Ferrell plays veteran congressman Cam Brady, whose frequent womanizing, binge-drinking and foot-in-mouth commentary have zero effect on his electability until an inexperienced local, Marty Huggins (Galifianakis), steps up to challenge him. The gloves come off quickly when their campaigns get down and dirty.
"I'm kind of a fish out of water when it comes to the political game, and I think Will's character is very savvy at it," said Galifianakis.
The two said they're skewering both the right and the left in The Campaign, and thanks to this year's presidential election, the timing is perfect.
"With the state of how crazy politics are getting, we thought it would be a very timely and funny way to kind of make fun of politics," said Ferrell.
The building blocks of any good campaign were there: Buttons were handed out, press dutifully showed up and nearby, cars emblazoned with the "candidates" faces waited.
But today, the issues steered far from immigration and job creation. Ferrell's first priority, should he win public office?
"I would do exactly what the congresspeople are doing right now," he said. "Nothing. I'd just hang out in Washington, go to great restaurants."
"Maybe go a ribbon cutting at Arby's or Six Flags," pondered Galifianakis. "Make it legal to take a left on a red." This, to his surprise, earned cheers from fans.
"I think that's on the ballot this year. Prop 89: Left on red," said Ferrell, beginning a chant: "Left on red! Left on red!"
And how do they plan on getting the Latino vote, asked a reporter.
"Zach and I have been spending a lot of time with Ricky Martin lately," joked Ferrell. "Zach?"
"We were at Carlos Santana's house last night," Galifianakis replied.
The comedian-infused Whistle Stop Tour will touch down Tuesday in St. Louis, Dallas/Ft. Worth and Chicago on Wednesday, Seattle on Thursday and San Francisco on Friday. A second leg later this month will take Ferrell and Galifianakis to Boston and Toronto on July 30, and Philadelphia and Washington, D.C., on July 31.
Inch by inch, this campaign should be a cinch. "Seattle's already passed 'left on red' so they're ahead of us," said Ferrell, as Galifianakis cracked up.

Watch the Making of Daniel Boulud's My French Cuisine
You, too, can cook like Daniel Boulud (in your dreams).
Hachette Book Group
Daniel Boulud's new opus, My French Cuisine (Amazon.com, $36.75), has been released and its pretty gorgeous.
Celebrating the 20th anniversary of Daniel, the chef's three Michelin-starred Manhattan restaurant, the book is divided into three parts.
The first part focuses on Daniel. In the introduction Boulud writes, "I didn't want to keep any details from you by trying to make things simpler. You can decide how inspired you want to be: to make the whole recipe or just the main protein, or perhaps only the vegetable garnish." That means long, extremely complicated recipes probably not meant to be attempted at home (unless you're at chez Boulud, that is). Just focus on the gorgeous photographs.
The second part of the book is a narrative of the creation of the dishes of Boulud's home town of Lyon.
Finally, there are a dozen dishes designed to be made at home like a beer-marinated pork roast. Never thought a master chef would cook pork in beer? Think again.
The chef has released a "making of" video in which we learn that it took 167 people, 2,926 ingredients, 296 hours of photography, two years of production, and one cow head to produce the book. It's also a good look into the inner workings at Daniel and a pretty sure bet that straight after watching, you'll try to secure a plane ticket straight to New York City. Or at least a table at db Bistro Moderne.

Continued: Hollings
A large treasure vault houses the most valuable items from holdings in the Irvin department of rare books and special collections, including the original double –elephant folio Audubon, first editions of Milton, Burns, Whitman, Fitzgerald and Hemingway and a rare 1699 charter with the Great Seal of the Lords Proprietors of South Carolina.
Digital Collections, responsible for creating digital versions of select rare materials from the collections and making them available online for access by scholars and the public, now houses the only Zeutschel scanner in the United States. The large-format overhead scanner allows staff members to digitize large books and maps that could not otherwise be made available in digital form. The scanner will make possible the digitization of the William Gilmore Simms Collection and materials from an array of collections.
"The Zeutschel scanner greatly enhances the capabilities our digital-collections staff," McNally says.
"We already have made more than 60,000 images and 60 digital collections available for public use. The Hollings Library expands the resources available to staff and will certainly accelerate their good work to preserve materials and enhance research by making them widely and freely available."
While the dedication on July 23 is closed to the public, the Hollings Library is open to visitors and researchers 8:30 a.m. – 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. For more information, visit the website: www.sc.edu/library/develop/renovation.html.

Trailblazing lawyer Louise Raggio, the first female District Attorney in Dallas, Texas, who would also become that office's first woman to prosecute a criminal case, died Sunday at the age of 91.
Raggio's greatest legacy was her role in passing the landmark Texas Marital Property Act of 1967. In a documentary released in the 1960s, Raggio noted that Texas was one of the worst states in the nation in terms of women's property rights.
Raggio said: "Basically when a man and woman married, they said the husband and wife were one, and he was the one, because all her property rights when she married were not hers anymore. If she owned an apartment house free and clear when she married, the rents belonged to her husband, and if she had bank account he could tell her bank not to let her withdraw any of her funds."
Outraged at the blatant discrimination of the law, she championed the groundbreaking statue in 1967. Many women were inspired by Raggio's dedication in fighting for women's legal rights and followed in her footsteps.

NSW Attorney-General Greg Smith is facing a growing push to have him removed from the job amid discussion within the government about Citizenship, Communities and Aboriginal Affairs Minister Victor Dominello as a replacement.
Pressure on Mr Smith has come to a head over mandatory minimum sentences for violent crimes, which he publicly opposed last year but supported last week as part of the government's response to alcohol-related violence.
Mr Smith's about-face has infuriated many lawyers and his initial opposition to mandatory sentencing appears to have weakened his position within the government.
At a party room meeting on Thursday, before debate on legislation introducing a mandatory minimum sentence of eight years for fatal single-punch assaults involving alcohol or drugs, Mr Smith was grilled by his Liberal colleagues.
One MP described watching Mr Smith defend laws he was clearly not in favour of as ''excruciating''.
Mr Smith, who is from the right faction of the NSW Liberals, would normally be replaced by another right-winger.
Mr Dominello, a former partner at a legal firm, is with the left faction, but his backers argue he will be more likely to remain in step with hard-line law-and-order policies than Mr Smith, who is a former deputy director of public prosecutions in NSW.
The other logical candidate, Cronulla MP and senior barrister Mark Speakman, is also from the left but he spoke against mandatory minimum sentencing last year.
Leading right-winger and former energy minister Chris Hartcher was also initially discussed as a replacement for Mr Smith. But Mr Hartcher resigned from cabinet after a raid by the Independent Commission Against Corruption that was linked to allegations of illegal political donations.
Premier Barry O'Farrell is widely tipped to shuffle his cabinet next month, one year out from the next year's election.
Some senior lawyers are surprised Mr Smith - who last year described mandatory minimum sentencing as an ''expensive and ineffective crime-fighting tool'' - did not resign from cabinet over the issue.
But Mr Smith, 65, is believed to want to give his son Nathaniel the best possible chance of taking over his seat of Epping before the next election, and retaining his position in cabinet will help to achieve this.
Mr O'Farrell has said he will introduce a second tranche of mandatory minimum sentences for alcohol and drug-related violent crimes, including sexual assault and affray.
The proposed legislation, which also increases the maximum penalties for these offences by two years, is due before Parliament soon after it resumes on February 25.

This coming weekend, Helsinki will welcome the best of Scandinavian garage rock when Bar Loose hosts the Denmark-based Gutter Island Festival. Held for the first time in 2000 at the Masnedø Fort on the island of the same name south of Vordingborg in Denmark, the Gutter Island Festival has grown steadily to become the biggest music festival of garage rock in the Nordic countries. Over the years it has attracted bands like The Hives, New Bomb Turks, Wild Billy Childish, Baby Woodrose, Ricochets, The Flaming Sideburns, The Fleshtones, Black Magic Six, and many, many more.
This will be the first time for the Gutter Island idea to take form in Helsinki, and already signs are that it will be very popular – so much so that an extra night has had to be added on Thursday, with the label Gutter Island Pre-Party! Anderz Nielsen, of Gearbox Agency in Copenhagen and one of the original organizers of the festival, says that Gutter Island's core idea is to find and bring out new bands and to spread the vital Nordic Garage rock 'n' roll gospel.
The order then is as follows:
On Thursday the 10th is the Pre-Party when Danish psychedelic garage rockers Baby Woodrose will be supported by Finnish band Death Hawks. The festivities are rounded out by Norwegian Djs Farbror Fuzz & Joao Caveira. Tickets are €13 in advance or €15 on the door.
On Friday the 11th Baby Woodrose once again are the headline act. In fact, it was their popularity that led to the extra night. They'll be supported on the night by The Flaming Sideburns, a band that have been around for years and have built a loyal fan base in Finland. Before that there'll be a performance by the all-girl power trio Heavy Tiger (named for a Flaming Sideburns song?) from Sweden, and opening proceedings will be The Country Dark. Once again the Norwegian Dj combo of Farbror Fuzz & Joao Caveira will keep the dancefloor rocking all night. Tickets are €18 in advance, and €20 on the door – although I very much doubt there will be any tickets left by Friday.
Saturday the 12th sees the excellent Swedish band, The Nomads, headline ably supported by Hola Ghost, from Denmark, with Finnish bands The Souls and Disgrace filling the opening slots. Djing for the night will be Lord Fatty & John Wayne who will be well known to the audience. Once again the tickets are €18 and €20, and once again I'd recommend buying in advance as this is very likely to be sold out.

The app can handle ridiculous amounts of data, hundreds of thousands POIs, waypoints and hundreds of tracks. The idea is to take all your GEO data with you. Ideal for all outdoor activities, geocaching, camping, traveling and such. The app is already in a somewhat mature state (IMO) and it is ready for daily use. And that's what we are looking for. If you are using (or willing to use) a GPS app nearly every day, you are the perfect tester. Additionally the infrastructure (mainly the web site) needs testing and the FAQs need content.

Fishing Information
Marine recreational fisheries are popular in Southcentral Alaska, supporting approximately 486,000 angler-days of effort for all finfish species (2000 estimate). An angler day equals one angler fishing for any part of a day. Effort has more than doubled in the last 20 years. A large portion of this recreational fishing effort is directed at Pacific halibut. Halibut landed in ValdezIn addition, nearly a dozen rockfish species as well as lingcod support recreational fisheries throughout the region. There is a low-level developing fishery for salmon sharks. In addition, numerous other groundfish species are occasionally targeted or taken incidentally, including starry flounder, arrowtooth flounder, Pacific cod, walleye pollock, sablefish, greenlings, skates and spiny dogfish.
The halibut and groundfish fisheries are supported entirely by wild stocks. Although accessible by road, many of these fisheries are considered remote because participation, for the most part, requires a boat. Cost of participation is relatively high compared to many other recreational fishing opportunities. A wide diversity of marine fishing opportunities exists throughout the region, and anglers without access to vessels can use the well-developed charter fleet.
The following links lead to regulation summaries of Alaska sport and personal use fishing regulations published by the Division of Sport Fish as a service to anglers. They are not intended to be a complete digest of all fishing regulations.
Regulations may be changed by the Alaska Board of Fisheries during its regular meetings, by emergency regulation, or by emergency order at any time. Any changes to the regulations are made available through the emergency order link below.

Poetry: 'Our Song'
Updated 10:37 am, Friday, July 20, 2012
Our Song
By Teresa Brown
I turn on the radio,
Songs about never leaving you baby,
And I'll always be there when you need me.
I would have believed that not so long ago,
Why did he leave?
Time changes everything.
I reminisce about the songs we created ourselves,
How we put our heart and soul into them,
No one will hear them now.
Tears begin to fall
Somewhere some couple is celebrating,
It's their twentieth anniversary.
They're listening to the radio
And they still hold hands,
He's saying, "Listen honey it's our song!"
And they begin to dance,
Entertainment Channel
Someone will love me like that.

Dogs star's goals may lie elsewhere as El Masri puts family first
Page Tools
To the average Bulldogs fan, the thought of Hazem El Masri playing for another club borders on the sacrilegious.
But for the prolific goalkicking winger - and perhaps the club as well - it is a prospect that looms larger and larger as the June 30 anti-tampering deadline approaches. It's a date the Australia and Lebanon international admits will almost certainly pass without him having re-signed at Belmore.
"It is very hard but I've been at the club for a while, and the thing is, I've got a young family now," El Masri said yesterday as he prepared for this evening's game against Canberra in Gosford.
"In the end, it won't be just my decision, it will be a family decision. I've already got a year-and-a-half old girl and I've got another baby due in about two weeks. You've got to deal with issues off the field and, when you're on the field, perform. We'll be going to June 30, anyway."
Coach Steve Folkes accepts that a large proportion of Dogs supporters who go to games are of Lebanese extraction and they are fans who may waver if El Masri is let go.
"Hazem has given the club great service and he is a great bloke to have around with all his enthusiasm, and he knows how to sniff out a try," Folkes said.
"A fair few of our supporters have the same ethnic origins as Haz and he is role model for them, as he is for all our fans. But we have a salary cap to satisfy and players who have risen to representative status and who need to be recognised as such."
Asked how a club factored the popularity of a player among fans into contract negotiations, Folkes said: "It's extremely difficult. You look at Penrith last year, how they had to release Scott Sattler, and the Roosters are talking about releasing Luke Ricketson.
"It's an unfortunate fact of life under the constraints of the cap but hopefully we will find a way to retain Hazem."
El Masri's year started poorly off the field when he was forced to attend police interviews even though he was not accused of any involvement in the Coffs Harbour rape allegations.
At one stage he refused to give a DNA sample, describing the police request as "an insult".
Since then, things have improved and he goes into tonight's game second on the NRL's pointscoring chart, with 120. His goalkicking percentage is top of the league at 88 per cent.
"The game against the Roosters, we got a lot of confidence out of that," he said. "It has been a pretty rocky year, up and down. We've played good in matches then dropped our form. Credit to the boys, we're sitting on second place and it's halfway through the year. To be able to sit on second place with all the dramas that are going on, it's pretty pleasing."
Tonight was a danger game, he said, because of the number of players who had been away on Origin duty.
The club has also given up its homeground advantage to play in Gosford because of damage to the field at Sydney Showground.
And those contract talks, he admitted, were "a bit of a distraction but I always try to block it out and hopefully do what I do best, and those things will take care of themselves off the field."
And as for a decision on his future, El Masri will ask his wife and daughter for guidance.
A devoted family man, he may pull out of playing for Lebanon in the end-of-season Mediterranean Cup - which he has starred in for the past two years - to look after the newest addition to the clan.
"At the moment, I don't know - there's a 50-50 chance, I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to make that trip this year," he said.
The newest El Masri, however, may be too young for a vote on dad's next move.

Lets play a game. Think of a question to ask The Magic Mischa Ball. Got it? Make it as personal as you want, in fact, even better if it involves some sort of inane background information.
Now, ask The Magic Mischa Ball and then press play on this video and hear Mischa's heartfelt response to your query.
Yup, that's about as much Mischa Barton cares about anything you think, say, or do.
[Images from July Australia Vogue via Source]
• Morning Moving Picture: The Magic Mischa Ball
• Morning Mess: Mischa knows who wears the pants in her family
• Rachel Bilson is Summer Roberts, and other delusions
• Mischa, I got my grandfather on the phone, he wants his shorts back
??? Mischa Barton swears at her mother and calls her names in a hotel hallway. But hell, guess who is paying for that hotel room? [Bricks and Stones]
??? Congratulations to Rachel Weisz on her baby boy, and because no one will harass her for pictures while we are still waiting on Suri and Shiloh. [Celebitchy]
??? Lindsay Lohan wants Brandon Davis to apologize on video and make a charitable donation to make up for his tirade against her. He should probably give it to a firefighter???s organization, just for shits. [WWTDD]
??? Rough Thursday night? Feel like you look like ass? At least you???re not Goldie Hawn. [DListed]
??? Jessica Simpson???s sagging breasts look like Ashlee???s old nose. Oh how the Simpson tables have turned. [CityRag]
??? The Beckhams are coming to America; I give it six months before he???s cheating on her again. [rosiedemario]
I cannot even really explain the joy I felt upon reading that Rachel Bilson and Mischa Barton actually went to high school together. Please don't rain on my parade by explaining that Bilson is 5 years older and therefore they never actually overlapped; just let me have my dream for a moment. Right here in New York City, Summer and Marissa kind of sort of real life lived the OC. Where, you ask, and what other famous went there:
132 West 60th Street, Upper West Side
Mischa Barton, Jordana Brewster, Rachel Bilson, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Julia Stiles, Christopher Walken, Uma Thurman and Scarlett Johansson
Brilliant. In my head these ladies (other than Walken, who is just standing in the corner acting like a nutjob and freaking the shit out of all the hot girls) roamed the halls in a pack somehow bridging the divide between the cool kids and the drama kids. Mischa and Rachel play their exact parts from the show, clearly. Sarah Michelle Gellar was the cheerleader. Uma Thurman, the hot athletic one who slept with all the cool older guys. Julia Stiles was always almost a popular girl, but never quite, and tried too hard at parties, often resulting in embarrassing dignity-less moments. And Scarlett Johansson smoked cigarettes in the parking lot and was rumored to give blow jobs for cocaine.
A very special thank you to Mischa Barton for writing my final post of the day for me. Say it with me now, Mischa is a bag lady. Alas, its not all Whole Foods and frumpy clothes for Mischa filming her movie up in Toronto. According to Canada.com some one out there decided to invite her to a dinner party where conversation was crucial. I can't imagine she has A-team banter, but maybe she would surprise me:
The stars were close to the stars last Sunday. That's when an out-on-a-limb Shirley MacLaine, the don't-hate-me-because-I'm-beautiful Mischa Barton and a very merry Von Trapp Christopher Plummer joined many others for a lovely dinner, indeed, at Toula. That resto high, high up in the Westin Harbour Castle.
Front-and-centre too: Lord Richard Attenborough, who's here to helm a movie called Closing the Ring. With him was his special Lady, Sheila Attenborough. (Dontcha just love it when you get a Lady named Sheila?)
The cast of thousands -- minus a few thousands -- dined on a meal meant for Roman nobility. We're talking steamed white asparagus in truffle sauce, handmade gnocchi in classic pesto with asiago shavings, beef filet with green peppercorn pearls, wild mushrooms and red snapper perfumed in lemon and oil. Dessert, of course, followed, and it was composed of wild berries in Grand Marnier with vanilla-bean gelato.
There was wine, there was grappa, and there was conversation that flowed like the Trevi Fountain. A good opportunity, definitely, for Mischa -- who's playing the young Shirley MacLaine -- to get to know the grande dame just a little better.
The whole evening sounds like a gas--pleasant chat and delicious food with an emaciated skeletal starlet who appears to have the personality of a 2x4. Smashing.
This is why I'm happy I don't have a photographer (or 50) following my every move. Interestingly enough, this is also the closest Mischa Barton has ever been to a McDonald's container. Coincidence that this is also the moment when Mischa Barton's coin slot is on display to the world, or is it her own version of social commentary? You decide.
Also, Mischa Barton has found the key to not being yelled at for being anorexic: wear the least flattering combination of clothing ever. The skinny pants paired with the billowy top--recipe for appearing pear shaped and matronly. (Two things that I'm fairly sure Mischa Barton is not.)
Does anyone know what kind of dog Mischa totes around? Holy sweet lord I need one in my pocket as soon as possible.
Brandon Davis is figuring out the hard way that being an unhygenic and dispicable person doesn't necessarily win you friends. Especially the unhygenic part. That shit is sick. Take a shower grease-ball.
Luckily, Brandon Davis had some C-List stars to keep him company at Hyde (Zach Braff I would expect more of, however) while all the actual celebrities were off in New York and Cannes this weekend. As usual, TMZ was stationed outside of every club in LA this weekend and was lucky enough to overhear a woman confront Davis;
(May 22, 11:35AM ET) -- Brandon Davis learned this weekend that it doesn't pay to be vulgar and classless. The man who went on an obscene tirade last week against Lindsay Lohan was verbally attacked by an outraged woman outside a Hollywood nightclub.
"No wonder why Mischa Barton dumped your ass," the woman screamed. She added: "Go home and take a shower."
Burn. Come on, Paris, friends don't let friends allow personal cleanliness fall by the wayside. It's also gone far too long without Mischa Barton's name being dragged into this debacle, so I'm glad to see this is finally an equal opportunity scandal.
The woman who confronted Davis said: "Lindsay Lohan earns her money. You get it from daddy."
This event is the best thing that ever happened to Lindsay Lohan. Her publicist must be the happiest woman in Hollywood. Before this happened Lindsay Lohan was on a downward spiral towards public disdain, but now everyone is running to the starlet's defense. Lohan has been saved by the consistently proven fact that even if you are hell-bent on destroying your own reputation, there's always someone dumb enough to bolster it back up.
[Source, Source]
Mischa Barton really doesn't want Richard Attenborough touching her face, let alone kissing her cheek. Unfortunately, Mischa should know that part of being a young female star is letting all the skeevy movie producers act as lecherous as they damn well please. Mischa is working with Attenborough on Closing the Ring a WWII fight movie currently being filmed in Toronto.
It's been a rough week for Mischa, what with ruining The OC for her legion of young fans and now being forced to spend hours scouring her cheeks to rid them of old man. Newsweek checked in with her to see how much of an idiot one person can come of as in a few short questions. After establishing that she was forced off the show rather than retiring on her own, Misha had these nuggets about her life:
Your voice sounds deeper than it does on TV.
I have a general transatlantic accent, I suppose. I'm nothing like my character. Are you kidding? I was born in London, raised in New York. She's crazy. I don't understand how anybody could be like her.
It's good to know that the only ways Mischa can differentiate herself from Marissa Cooper is pointing out that they were born in different places and by calling Marissa crazy. The drug habits, underage drinking and general instability? Pretty true to life.
Mischa was in New York at the time of the interview and was forced to field such hard hitting questions as this one:
Are you going to walk [your puppy]?
Yes. She's never seen SoHo or Tribeca, and I grew up there, so I feel it's necessary. But it's horrible, because she's way too little to put down. I have to walk around with her in my arms, and I look like one of those girls who has a small dog.
Yeah, no shit, Mischa. When you are a girl whose dog is too small to walk on its own legs, I'm going to go ahead and call you out as "one of those girls who has a small dog".
Aw look, it's Marissa and Summer out for a little shopping on a sunny afternoon. Only, if this was actually on the OC the girls might be forced to look like they were actually enjoying themselves. It's a little bit of a fantasy of mine (and yours, come on, admit it) that television stars are really all best friends with each other off the set, and when it came out that Rachel Bilson and Adam Brody really are in love I just about died of a patheticly adorably sap overload. However, I've also always wished that Rachel Bilson really sort of hated Mischa Barton, because she seems like a whiney bitch. I guess I can't win 'em all.
In this picture Mischa Barton's skirt ends before Rachel Bilson's legs even start. It's kinda like Rachel could inadvertantly look up Mischa's skirt because she is just so lanky and towering. Well, not really, but that would be pretty awesome.
Mischa Barton knows that if you're going to walk and Sidekick at the same time, you should always wear reflective clothing. Even a simple strip of reflector down an otherwise standard sun dress will increase your chances of being seen, made fun of, and subsequently not hit by passing bikers or cab drivers on the streets of New York.
See Mischa Barton is a good role model, excessive partying and unattractive mating choices be damned.[There's More To Read ...]

Missy Elliott Sets Off the 'Block Party'
After a few false alarms, Missy Elliott is finally on-schedule to release her new album, "Block Party," today. Fans are surely ready to hear something new from the Virginia native, especially considering how quiet she's been in the five years since her last album, "The Cookout." Though it seems like just yesterday, it was actually 13 years ago that Missy Elliott blessed the world with her debut album, "Supa Dupa Fly," led by the monster-hit single and mold-breaking video, "The Rain (Supa Dupa Fly)." In the in-between time, she's sold millions of records, racked up Grammy, American Music and MTV Video Music awards and even wrote and produced hits for artists ranging from Fantasia, Monica and Keyshia Cole to Ciara and the late singer/actress, Aaliyah. Oh, and just last month, "Rolling Stone" named her 2002 album, "Under Construction," as one of the best albums of the decade. As Elliott celebrates the release of her seventh album, we gathered a few of highlights from her always creative, ever-colorful career. Take a look...

Bits of food below by our feet. Breakfast buffet lovely except cooked breakfast, dissappointing in lack of choice of egg and most food only warm, scrambled eggs cold.
Rooms were superb. Service was excellent.
Very helpful staff.Very clean. Perfect location for quick wkend trip.
very clean, well positioned ,clearly very new and up to the minute in terms of facilities Staff at desk not able to deal with simple requests had to be dealt with through guest services and initially would not even dial the appropriate extension for us.
It was just average to us. Nothing impressive. It was again, fine. Nothing terrible either.
The staff were extra friendly. The spa is closed on weekends.
Excellent location friendly staff
Great location from this clean and well maintained hotel. Has a high end feel but at reasonable prices. Sometimes it can be too popular but the hotel copes well and the staff have always been cheerful and courteous.
Comfortable bed, light excluding curtains, very useful small kitchen area,good bathroom. Staff courteous. Awful view from bedroom window, sitting area of room very dark. Not enough staff on reception for booking in felt rather like a queue waiting for tickets. Housekeeping took 30 mins to respond to request .
The room was excellent and very comfortable. However I found the pillows were too soft - apart from that I like everything else about the room. Breakfast was not included in the room price and I thought the breakfast was overpriced. We eat breakfast close by on the Southbank rather than at the hotel and found it to be much cheaper. Also the quality of where we ate our breakfast was very good.
The studio room was superb and also the view from the room. The location is perfect. The staff at check in. There was litter in the room.
Excellent location, spacious rooms, very good bathroom. Although the staff were quite good, there were some times when we had to ask for some basic services more than 10 times. We stayed for a week, first 3 days room service was good, after that room attendant didn't even bother to swipe the floor-the layers of dust were amazing.
We stayed in the executive studio and we had everything we needed. Lovely modern design - very comfortable. Great bathroom. Close to Waterloo Station. Very friendly reception staff.
I didn't stay, my boss did and they upgraded him even though he was only staying one night! Location is very good and staff friendly
Good quality of decor and fittings in rooms and public places. Excellent position for enjoying central London.
Excellent location and helpful staff Slightly disappointed with the standard of the bed for a quality hotel
Convenient and good value Air conditioning not working properly
very good location in central London Lengthy wait for lifts
convenient location, clean and smart room - good internet connectivity, comfortable bed, friendly and helpful staff the room was too hot...and unable to open window or reduce temperature
Good sized suite. Usable fridge space. Modern decor. Good security. Restaurant staff nice. Small reception area makes it feel cramped and busy. No pool. Didn't get a room with a good view.
I liked the apartment style of our room and the ease of registering. The room was very well designed with a contemporary feel to it and the views were spine tingling! I would definitely choose this hotel again.
The hotel was superb! Clean, stylish, friendly and helpful staff. Only one thing - the room was hot and airless at night.
I loved the room and the facilities, the food and service was excellent and I would stay at the hotel again. The staff especially were very friendly and helpful.
Staff was polite, restaurant staff excellent, the room was confortable and quiet. The room given on the first night was not corresponding to the family room booked on your site. Booking com was blaimed by the Hotel for this situation. We were moved to a more appropriate room for the next night. Checking at the reception is a slow process and a lot of time was lost in sorting out the confusion about the room
It was very peacefull great place to relax no
All the staff were extremely polite and helpful. The room was generous in size, certainly for London.
The staff was great. Rooms were spacious. Luxurious. Location was amazing. I loved it.
close to all the things London has to offer spa pool and surrounds should be renovated
I loved the location of the hotel!! We didn't realize that our view would be Big Ben, House of Parliment, Westminster Abbey and the London Eye. We were central to many of the attractions which made planning convienent (we only had to walk 5 mins for all of the above attractions and 10 mins for Buckingham Palace). We were also within walking distance to the tube, which was also easy to use:) I also loved the Concierge and Reception. They were all knowledgeable and helpful in assistancing us if needed. I was disappointed that the Spa and pool were not up to Marriot standards. I have stayed at several and when there was 'down time' I could count on being able to entertain the children in the pool area. The pool was small and the children were constantly in the way of those doing laps. Also, I did not see the whirlpool, even though it was listed as having one. Finally, the breakfast was great but expensive (20 pounds) considering that just around the corner in the same building, another hotel had the same breakfast for 7 pounds.
comfortable beds. big spacious rooms. clean bathroom. newly decorated. noisy heater/air con. why can't there just be radiators?
The location, comfort and ambience were second to none. The restaurant and bar staff do not appear to be trained at all - service was extremely poor and not in keeping wwith a 5 star hotel
Helpfull stuff, good location, nice views, proximity to Westminster Abbey, Big Ben and London Eye, comfortable beds. The hotel is very tired and old fashioned, a little gloomy, small rooms, endless corridors, we had to walk to our room from the elevator like 400 meters.
Super hotel. Very pleasant staff. Like an oase in middel of busy city. Would like frigde in family rooms. Relaxed atmosphere. Helpful. Beautiful hotel, boys think it is oldfashioned, but I find that charming.
Friendly staff, modern room, good location Reception tried to upsell us to a better view! Breakfast was £20 per person! So easy to eat for much less on the town. Room was hot without a decent temp control option. Will stay elsewhere next time.
the room made you feel very relaxed and the hotel was kept very clean. the location was perfect for everything we needed.
Fantastic hotel, staff very friendly
Very nice hotel well worth £25 extra for a great veiw of River and Westminster nice room great bathroom nice freindly Bar. Staff were great
location volume of noise of air conditioning and the efficiency of it
The location of the hotel and great value for money.The room was very comfortable with a well equipped bathroom. There were several holes in the bed sheets (lack of attention to detail)!
Due to front renovation no proper sign boards kept. Found it difficult to reach on the first day.
Remote to TV etc. didn't work. Wall picture falling off, couldn'y get a cup of coffee at 9.30 (machine being serviced
excellent check in and check out by staff dirty hallways, staff forgetting out tea or coffee each morning at breakfast
the staff the beds were uncomfortable
The staff are very welcoming. The breakfast is very good and fresh. Our room was very comfortable and the bathroom very modern and stylish.
i asked staff to show me the where the stairs were as i do not like treveling in lifts, they said that there were no stairs for guests,although we were pleased with everything that you hotel has to offer including the comfort and clenliness of the rooms i will not choose to stay at your hotel in the future.can you please reply to this comment at your earliest convenience
comfort and location The airconditioning was not working in the first room and I had to insist on moving before being moved to an apartment where the TV was not working!
excellent staff, and service. The chino latino restaurant is very good, the chef deserves the honor.
We were upgraded to a 2 bedroom suite with a river view- fantastic! It was quite far from the tube
View Everything
Upgraded to larger room - very comfortable room Remote from tube and difficult to get taxi
This was an amazing modern hotel that I had a really good young vibe but also took really good care of my husband and I and her 16-month-old child. They be provided a travel cot with a goose down blanket and the staff was very pleasant with him especially in the restaurant/lounge. Service was excellent the only downfall was it took the kitchen longer than normal to get food out in the restaurant.
I did like the complimentary promotional products. I changed the room when I checked in So that my nephews would have a seperate room. The room (450) had cigerette burns in the carpet and smelt of smoke especially the curtains- I am not a smoker.
Staff were very helpful and friendly. When my husband left his mobile in the taxi, they arranged to have it returned in about 2 hours. On request, they also gave us a view of Westminster and changed our original room. The room cleaning and servicing was a little erratic. Sometimes different things were not replaced, such as dishwashing tablets, but as soon as housekeeping was contacted, missing items were brought to the room straight away.
Partial view of the river room was given when we expected a blocked view one due to the special rate booked which made us quite happy. Some items were missing like pan and cutting knive when we arrived but was quickly replaced when we asked from the housekeeping. tv in the living room was not working but was quickly repaired. The hotel was very gracious with welcome basket of cereals, mineral waters, chocolate bar, and jam. Two bottles of free mineral water everyday. Beds were made every night with chocolate given. Free wi-fi internet in the room as well as in all areas in the hotel and free access for computer use in business center were very convenient. Vauxhall underground station could be reched within 5- 10 min. We were very satisfied
From the moment you walk through the door you are treated like royalty - my only disappointment was that I was only staying the one night - suites superb, staff warm, friendly and very helpful - unlike the obnoxious staff that I have encountered at other 5 star hotels Nothing - everything fantastic
The hotel is very good, and worthed for the amout of money
Room Concierge
very nice hotel , the staff are all wonderful and helpful. very close to the eye of London, the nearest tube ( vauxhaull) is five minutes walk, the bus stop is at the hotel entrance.all and all this hotel is a five star with good value for your money.
the staff were all helpfull and friendly Breakfast was excellent . Location was great.and Bar staff very friendly
Excellent location, good large rooms with everything you would need for a short break, friendly and helpfull staff None
Great location, very clesn, no problems
Cold plates at breakfast not enough coffee mugs dirty trays
The location is excellent. Many sites in walking distance; close to transportation. Made two separate requests for wake up calls (on different days) and got neither wake up call!!
Minutes from everything you need access to. Lots of things to do and the staff was extremely helpful for suggestions. No a/c just a small fan but it sounds like it doesn't get too hot so we understand.
Great location, very clean and very quiet. Close to tube. Hotel needs a ramp at the entrance for people with heavy baggage. It's an older building without air conditioning although fans are provided. If it is a very hot day room might be uncomfortable. It was not hot on our day.
Location near the eye puts tourists in the middle of the action. Staff was great - friendly and responsive. Hotel is clean and well maintained. Great value for London. Very satisfied - would recommend this hotel to any tourist visiting London on a budget. This is a "value" hotel - if you want curb service for luggage, deluxe rooms, and special help with arrangements go elsewhere. The staff, however, makes every effort to provide assistance.
Nice and Quiet...Good location A box of tissue (Kleenex) would be good and air conditioning...wasn't too hot when we were there though so the room only was warm in the afternoon.
Conveninet location Exceptionally poor layout for breakfast
Excellent free left luggage service None
excellent location, nice staff, pleasantly surprised in over-expensive london
Bathroom exceptionally poor.
Attitude of the staff, friendly and not supersilious. I forgot ot mention that the shower in my room sprayed directly onto the opposite wall rather than in the shower tray
Location We staying in hotel for 2 nights and at 8am both mornings workmen where outside our hotel They where really loud and drilling. We complained as we where not warned about this but where told we could not be could not be moved.
The location of the Hotel. The cleanliness. The staff.
My wife and I both enjoyed the friendly atmosphere The hotel was too warm!
It was quiet, lobby was clean and modern. The room was much smaller than expected, for 3 people it was very tight. We had only 2 sets (like coffee cups, shower fluid). The view was very disappointing. Hotel is far from metro station in nasty area.
lovely hotel very central would deffinately stay here again.
front guys were terrible. we reserved taxi in the dawn for the airport but they didn't even checked. it we get the taxi by ourselves we were late for the bus for the airport inthe 3 o clock in the morning
The Breakfast was very good. The rooms were a good size too. The rooms were boiling hot. they are installing air conditioning at the moment, but our room did not have any, and it was uncomfortable, and unbearable to sleep in.
Good facility's, new Hotel, central location.
Relaxing lobby area, good location, no issues
Profesional staff and Good value for money, good location Relatively small rooms as for US traveler, need to book on line to get the best price, even as HHonor member
Great breakfast! Clean and comfortable rooms
We only had one towel in the bathroom although we were a couple, only to find out that the second towel was apparently in a drawer in the room upon checking out. No one told us about it upon checking in. Then a fire alarm went off during the night. No one communicated with us whilst standing in the foyer for 45 minutes, not the staff nor the fire officers ... All of a sudden everyone just moved back to the rooms, surely we should have been advised what caused it and told everything is fine, you can go back now and sorry for the inconvenience? Otherwise it was clean and the location good.
easy access to Waterloo Station Breakfast was ok but not enough places to sit and very disorganised
Very good location, only 7 minutes walk to London Eye, Big Ben. Parking place in the front of the hotel, very friendly staff, Flat TV in the room 2 star hotel for 4 star prices, very expensive, very poor breakfast, rooms small and old furished, no air condition, only a fan in the room !!!, windows can be opened only 10cm, small bathroom, shower very small, old and broken, was repaired after complains. No safe, noisy area
Staff very nice & helpful No air conditioning in the room (Very hot weekend)
rooms were clean but the decoration and carpeting in the corridors was poor, not giving a good first impression
Excellent situation close to North lambeth Tube station. Parking space for cars available at reasonable rate. In front of the Imperial War Museum. Clean and friendky staff.
acessible to Waterloo and the bar
Helpfulness and cheeriness of the staff
Location and value for money noisy
the location too noisy. Hotel is adjacent to the police station and hospital. You can hear sirens all evening. Never got a decent sleep. Breakfast was poor, not available on time, delayed. Room was not good enough for its cost vs. other hotels in the city. There is no airconditioning, hotel provides an electric fan. Cant close the windows to block off the noise (sirens) because the room gets too warm.
The staff were very helpful and pleasant, and there is a nice relaxed atmosphere in the lounge and bar area downstairs. The rooms are very clean. The hotel rooms are not airconditioned and the windows only open a few inches. Many rooms face east so on a warm day it can be quite unpleasant in the rooms in the morning. It is also very noisy as the hotel is on a busy road and opposite a police station.
the Coffee lounge there was no remote control for the fan
Excellent for location for business next day. Room was good and staff were friendly and helpfull
Room carpet needed cleaning. Room 12. Bathroom could be cleaner
The room was very clean and beds comfortable, upkeep of rooms to a good level too Some of reception staff weren't very cheerful, making us think twice about asking for help when we had an issue with a broken socket in our room
good value.Useful position
Booked 2 rooms. One room did not have heat. Hotel staff could not fix. No hot water in bathroom.
Not having a retaurant
easy walking distance to central london outside the congestion zone
Good location, friendly staff The bed was broken in first room, however the staff did immediately relocate us
location No Hotel bar
Staff was very, very friendly and gave details on how to work the lights inside the room, which I was sure to be confused about (because you need to insert your key card to use the lights). They also gave me an extra towel when they saw that two of us were checking in. I appreciate how observant they were. Not only was there no shampoo in the bathroom, but the previous guest's used shower gel was still inside the room, with what looked like dried blood or possibly lipstick smeared on the outside. It looks like the staff didn't clean the room thoroughly which made me paranoid the whole time. The room was insanely small. The outer wall of the pseudo-bathroom came right up to the bed.
la ubicacion, la amabilida y el chocolate caliente de la maquina 1 libra muy pequenos los cuartos,
the hotel was clean comparing to the standard no reception 24h
The location - far from the center and not very secure.
Speaking on behalf of the guests:The location and rate. I am speaking on behalf of the guests:The receptionist was rude when I asked what room number we were staying in, as he sarcastily said 'of course I will tell you your room number', he showed no charm or any concept of what a receptionist's attitude should be vis a vis good customer service, a smile doesn't cost anything and means a lot. He would actually put you off going there again and indeed the group I am speaking on behalf of won't, nor recommend it.
Great location and transport available 24 hrs. Close to many tourist attractions. Hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. Free internet and McDonalds right next to the hotel. The bathroom was bit small, but alright.
Friendly reception,Television and shower. and nice and quiet!.
The room was clean, warm, close to the centre of the city.
Basic, but clean, cheap and perfect WLAN. Keep in mind there is no breakfast served and the neighbourhood is really outside central London.
the access from the rail sation, buses stop was good and easy to reach
the co-resident mouse in next twin bed.! probably the mouse
Staff was nice. A kettle!!
Location - it was very close to oval underground station Poor breakfast - only toasts and cereal, some dirty, cracked walls in the room.
Welcoming and helpful staff in spite of a very brief stay.
The room was clean and the en-suite bathroom has been recently renovated. Not much space but enough! A minor thing: I would have liked one more towel (we had only 1 each)
It was just 5 minutes from Brixton Accadmy by car. The breakfast was very poor.
Breakfast and dining room
The friendly staff and the fact that it is near to the Oval and close to where I need to visit in London.
go to the Brixton academy concert too much expensive for the value, not enought twin rooms, rooms with one double bed!!!
good staff first impression outside is grim, plants or something to cheer it up
Cheap and cheerful Niose from tubes and soundproofing from other room
Staff were very friendly, the room was large, comfortable,fully equiped and clean. There was very little traffic or other noise. Breakfast was very good, with lots of choice.
It was clean and tidy and close to what I have to do in London. The room was quite and I could not here any pub or road noises and it was nice with the park close. Yes I would recommend the Windmill to anyone coming to London.
A great location on the common, close to public transport and nice rooms
Very lovely hotel, which was clean and tidy The shower didn't work
It was easily situated by the common close to tube and all shops. Great to walk on the common. Hotel very comfortable and enjoyed our stay. We will return!
Great location, nice breakfast area and a nice room Staff average
Staff were very polite and hotel was very clean andf well kept We've stayed in 4 star hotels that were more affordable yet much nicer in terms of decor and furnishings E.G. riverside plaza!!
The quality of the bed, the luxury of the room, the nice help at the reception.
The windmill benefits from a great pub with good english beers and also great food. Breakfast is excellent too.
This is a cozy hotel with friendly staff. It is very convenient to the tube in a fine location. This is not a bad point, but the dinner I chose could have used some improvement. The chips were great, but the fish was fair. Still, it was a decent meal for the money.
everything all right,good staff,clean room..
Location near railway station and other public transport Hard to find staff to talk to
The environment was neat and the hotel is close to a bus stop. The double room was too small to be so-called. Facilities for writing like good table and chairs were not availble. Receiving guests was difficult as furniture was not provided for this.
The hotel was very clean,close to the underground and there where many bus stations close by.Really helpfull stuff.Many pubs and places to eat close by!great value for money. There wasnt any stairs and not all rooms have private bathrooms.
Quite pricy (£35) for a small room with shared bathroom and no breakfast or kitchen facilities
Everything was very clean, which is very important for the people who shared the bathroom with other guests. I really liked the shower! The girl at the reception was really helpful on the phone when we had trouble finding the place. She was also very nice to give us some advice on where to have a good pizza! It was a bit hard to find. And the Clapham Common underground station is a good 13 minutes walk far! Which is very tiring if you have big and heavy luggage with you and you don't really know where to go. Also I wasn't aware of the bus service available. I could hear every step taken by the guests in the above room and the tv was way too high on the wall, I could barely hear it. Tea making facilities would be nice in the room.
Very nice hotel, well cared for, and simple with no frills. Exactly what I wanted and at a good price for London. None apart from the short commute and initial finding the place. The price and nice room made up for it for a budget, low maintenence traveler.

19 million Americans still go without broadband
Access to fast Internet is spreading in the U.S., but about 19 million Americans can't get it, according to a new government report out Tuesday.
The report by the Federal Communications Commission shows improvement from the agency's data last year that showed 26 million were without access to such Internet service. The FCC says its latest report was based on data it had as of June 2011.
The decline partially reflects Internet service providers' expansion beyond suburbs, but the FCC also attributes it to data collection that improved from its previous efforts.
The lack of access continues to hamper rural Americans in particular. About 14.5 million rural Americans — or 23.7% of 61 million people living in rural areas — had no fast Internet service offered for their homes. In contrast, only 1.8% Americans living in non-rural areas — 4.5 million out of 254.9 million — had no broadband access. The FCC categorizes an Internet service as "broadband" if it transmits at a speed of at least 4 megabits per second.
The report's ranking of states again underscored the correlation between broadband access and economic productivity. Economically struggling states fared worse than more thriving areas of the country. West Virginia had the least amount of access, with 45.9% of the state without broadband access. Montana (26.7%), South Dakota (21.1%) and Alaska (19.6%) followed.
But the access issue for rural Americans wasn't isolated to the states with few large cities. In California, more than 35% of rural residents couldn't order a broadband account even if they wanted it.
Similarly, mobile broadband Internet services delivered by wireless carriers also continued to widen nationwide, but nearly 20 million Americans — or 6.2% of the total population — had no access, the report says.
In July, the FCC announced it'll spend $115 million to subsidize broadband Internet providers' efforts to expand service to rural parts of the U.S.
The companies that accept the subsidies from the first phase of the Connect America Fund — $775 per household connected — will be required to invest in and complete the work of building the network infrastructure within three years. About 400,000 residents in 37 states will gain access upon completion, the FCC estimates.
FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski said the FCC's goal is to make broadband available by 2020 to all 19 million Americans who lack access. "Your chance of getting a job is lower if you don't have broadband. Job postings have moved online," he said.
The FCC launched the Connect America Fund last year when it made changes to the Universal Service Fund, which was established to deliver telephone connections to rural towns.

Committee Charge and Membership
Position Table
Position Request Form
Executive Committee
August 24, 2011
428 Library
Present: Paula Kaufman, chair; David Ward, Vice-chair; Beth Woodard, Secretary; Paula Carns, JoAnn Jacoby, Lynne Rudasill, Sarah Shreeves, Greg Youngen; Recording – Kim Matherly
Minutes were approved with a motion by David Ward, seconded by Sarah Shreeves, and one abstention.
David Ward was re-elected Vice Chair and Beth Woodard was elected Secretary.
Although Karen Hogenboom is no longer on EC, she will continue to work with Paula Carns on the search procedures. Beth Woodard will join them.
Now that we have a head of SHEL, EC needs to finalize membership for the Implementation Team. JoAnn will send out the draft and discussion will be added to the next EC meeting.
The Area Studies Division will be discussing the Latin American and Caribbean position tomorrow. They will then recommend names of people for the search committee.
EC will review a draft of the position posting for the Visiting South Asian Librarian.
The chancellor-designate met with the deans on Monday. Paula was not at the meeting because she was speaking at Marquette. She was back in time for the Reception for New Faculty & Staff. Several things arose out of both of those meetings. The meeting with the Deans was very good. They felt positive about their interactions. Apparently, Phyllis Wise intends to launch a search for the new provost quickly. The deans are feeling very upbeat.
Paula continues to work to get President Hogan's approval to participate in the Orphan Works initiative. The Interim Chancellor, the Chancellor-designate, and the Interim Provost have all approved, as have UIC's provost and chancellor.
Communication #7 has been revised to reflect changes in The Targets of Opportunity Program. Although the previous process is still available, campus is stressing the new protocol, which works through the established search process.
The financial incentives of the search process are better than through the former process.
While the Provost at University of Washington, Chancellor-designate Wise, launched a planning process for their Strategic Plan that looked two years out and then 20 years out. She indicated to the deans that she will be using a similar approach here. The work we've been doing on the strategic plan might fit nicely into this short-term plan.
The Library's Strategic Planning Task Force met recently and decided to have three open meetings in October to give people a chance to comment on the plan. An open meeting for Library faculty and staff will be held on October 11 in 66 Library from 2:00-3:00pm. The October 19 meeting for campus faculty will be from 9:00-10:00am in 126 GSLIS, and the meeting on October 27 for students will be held in 314A Illini Union from 10:30-11:30am.
The Task Force is hoping to have the second draft ready for review by November and the final report done by winter break.
Reviewers were suggested and letters will be sent.
EC discussed the search committees that have been charged and Scott Walter will meet with EC next week to discuss when Library HR will be ready to begin the next searches.
The Library will work in parallel with the space planning group in Vet Med. The charge for a group to plan the new space and services will be posted on the EC website for comment; once EC receives comments back on the charge, membership for the committee will be suggested.
It was proposed that the Scholarly Commons Coordinator position be a 50% time position and that Sarah Shreeves and Merinda Hensley split the position. EC approved this change in assignments.
Jenny Johnson proposed a new name for the Map & Geography Library, since Geography materials have been moved to ESSL (and will be part of SHEL). EC will invite Jenny to the next EC meeting.
This document will be posted for comments.
This was deferred to another meeting.
