This packet contains the following information: Event Overview Eligibility Requirements Application Processes Donations Matching Grant Structure Marketing Materials Volunteer Opportunities Event Administration and Cost Grant Report Rules and Procedure Important Dates and Deadlines Challenge for Charities About the Lander Community Foundation Frequently Asked Questions Event Overview The Challenge for Charities is a 2-month community fundraiser. The event peaks on July 4th, when more than 400 people come together for a celebration of community spirit and nonprofit support at the Lander Half Marathon and 5K race. The real power of this fundraising model comes through the leadership provided by the Lander Community Foundation and participating nonprofits and the matching fund incentive provide by Community Challengers. The Challenge for Charities event day will incorporate a competitive half marathon, competitive and recreational 5-K run/walk and a family fun jump rope competition for youth ages 5 through 10. Race participants from the local community and a far-reaching competitive running community will be naturally attracted to register to participate in this event. There will also be an awards celebration, entertainment, food and prizes and much more. Following is a general overview of how the event will work (details to follow in this packet). 1. Nonprofits complete an Organization Application—a simple, online form is available at www.landercommunityfoundation.org. 2. The Lander Community Foundation reviews all applications and determines eligibility. 3. The Foundation oversee marketing and administration of the event. 4. Qualified nonprofits receive a packet of marketing materials, including event brochures, donor forms and a sample solicitation letter. 5. Nonprofits independently solicit donations from their donors. 6. The Foundation solicits Community Challengers to raise matching fund contributions that incentivize donors and enhance the impact of every individual donation. 7. All donors make donations directly to the Lander Community Foundation and designate funds to the participating nonprofit(s) of their choice. The Foundation sends each donor a tax-deductible receipt and thank-you letter. Periodically updated donation lists are provided to participating nonprofit organizations. 8. Nonprofits receive 100% of donations designated to them on August 7 at a community celebration. 9. Donations are matched at a ratio* based on the money raised by the Foundation and Community Challengers. * The Foundation has set a target of 30-50% for the matching funds. This means for every dollar raised through this fundraiser, approved nonprofits will receive $.30- .50 more! Marketing materials will be designed to raise awareness of local nonprofits' work and promote a philanthropic, engaged community. The Challenge for Charities' impact is felt throughout the year as the participating nonprofits put donations to work.

Related entities are eligible for a combined matching grant, up to $10,000 raised as a whole. The match percentage, announced at the Awards Party on August 7, 2012, depends on the ratio of the total amount raised from the Foundation's Community Challengers relative to the designated funds received by each of the participating organizations. The Lander Community Foundation has targeted the matching fund to approximate 30-50% or $.30 - $.50 on every dollar raised! Funds will be distributed to nonprofits at the Awards Celebration. Use of Matching Funds Matching funds are restricted to the guidelines in the Rules and Procedures presented in this packet. Matching funds are restricted for current use and may not be placed in an endowment account. Matching funds cannot be given to another participating organization.

The good news is, by having one entity responsible for the overall administration of the event, everyone benefits from lower fundraising costs. To support more nonprofits, the Lander Community Foundation will put aside 5% of the Community Challenger matching funds to be used in a new competitive grant program. This competitive grant program will create an additional opportunity for any Lander-area nonprofit organization to apply competitively for grant funding. Applications for this grant will be available September 1, 2012 and will be due December 15, 2012. Awards for this grant will be announced mid-January 2013. Grant Report All organizations that received matching funds though the Matching Grant Program must complete a Grant Report by March 27, 2012 as part of the 2012 Application. The report is used to confirm that organizations used the grant funds in accordance with the Rules and Procedures. The Grant Report is also used to demonstrate the community impact of the Challenge for Charities to the public, donors and media. Organizations failing to submit a Grant Report will not be eligible for the following year's Challenge for Charities.

Museum of the American West Challenge for Charities 8 Nonprofit Orientation Packet History of Challenge for Charities In order to achieve the Lander Community Foundation's mission of promoting philanthropy and creating a stronger Lander community, the foundation sponsors the Challenge for Charities, a community-wide fundraiser, which culminates in the Lander Half Marathon and 5K. Nearly $150,000 was pumped into local nonprofit groups, thanks to the Challenge for Charities fund raising event. The event raised $147,743 from more than 500 donors, including individual donors and Community Challengers (who donated to the matching fund pool). The match went to the 28 participating Lander nonprofit groups. Community Challengers made it possible to match individual donors' gifts at 50-percent. The Challenge for Charities fundraiser lasted 3-months and peaked with the July 4th half- marathon & 5K road races. The Lander Community Foundation took over the operation of the 34-year-old race for the first time in 2011. In the months leading up to the race, the foundation recruited local nonprofits to participate in the Challenge for Charities fundraiser. These nonprofits then reached out to their donor-base and solicited donations to the Challenge for Charities with the incentive that their donation would be matched up to 50-percent by the foundation. Donors decided which of the 28 participating nonprofit groups they wanted to donate and donation level. In all, 497 individuals gave $93,746 to the 28 groups in gifts that ranged from $5 to thousands of dollars. The Lander Community Foundation board raised the matching fund pool. The foundation solicited individuals and businesses to become Community Challengers, donors who give upwards of $500. Twenty-six families and businesses stepped up, including five "Gold Level Community Challengers," who gave at least $5,000. Another 13 gave $1,000 or more at the Silver level and eight gave $500 or more, the Bronze level. Donations were collected until July 8th. The community foundation registered nearly 400 runners and walkers for the half-marathon as well as a new 5-kilometer race. Registration fees went toward foundation fundraising expenses and toward matching gifts. Winner were awarded charity bucks that they in turn donated to the nonprofit of their choice The foundation's fundraising goal was to raise at least $80,000 and match designated donations at a minimum 30-percent level. By raising nearly $150,000 and making matching gifts at 50- percent, the foundation's leaders and participants were happily surprised. The Challenge for Charities is modeled in part after Old Bill's Fun Run in Jackson, an annual event that raises millions of dollars for Jackson Hole charities. In 14 years, they have raised almost $75-million. Although Lander residents might not have the deep Jackson pockets, the inaugural Challenge for Charities event clearly indicates that Lander residents have a philanthropic spirit. Leaders of nonprofit groups are already eager for next year's fundraiser. Challenge for Charities 9 Nonprofit Orientation Packet The Lander Half Marathon has taken place every year since 1980—32 years—on July 4th, 2011. This volunteer-run event was founded and organized by Lander residents and avid runners Carolyn and Phil Gilbertson. The event has gained a reputation for community fun as well as a physical challenge. Originally, the event was sponsored for local running enthusiasts and as a way to raise funds for a few nonprofits supported by the Gilbertson Family. The Lander Community Foundation intends to continue with the original spirit of the event with an even broader the impact on our community. About the Lander Community Foundation The Lander Community Foundation is a local philanthropic foundation whose mission is to promote philanthropy and create a stronger community by encouraging and supporting effective giving and by providing leadership on issues that are important to our community.

Hall Green dogtrack, racing on Tuesday, Friday and Saturdays. Excellent restaurant (for the money) where they have really good service and a man who comes and takes your bets. The restaurant works out at about £15 per head.
This is probably the top football stadium in the area and one of three Premiership ones in the city (at present). I have visited several times with some fond and some not so fond memories of the stadium.
It is possible to have tours of the stadium which are available daily at 10am and 2pm except Saturdays.
The local venue for Test Match Cricket and One Day Internationals. Catch a day/nighter if you can. I sometimes head down here after work... it beats sitting in the pub (if the weather is nice that is!)
Take in a cricket game at Edgbaston or New Road, Worcester.
A great way to relax and see the traditional British summer sport (weather permitting of course!). Edgbaston, in the suburbs of Birmingham, is a modern 20,000+ capacity ground which hosts occasional international games. New Road, Worcester is a much smaller ground but set beside the river Severn and with the backdrop of the famous Worcester Cathedral.
You can watch county games, played over 3 or 4 days, or a one day game played over about 6 hours. If you don't understand the rules, there are always plenty of people to try and explain!

Another Low-Calorie Bran Muffin Recipe
Total Time
Prep 20 mins
Cook 17 mins
I was looking for a low calorie healthy bran muffin recipe that tasted like a traditional bran muffin, and finally came up with a sort of "Frankenstein monster" conglomeration of a basic recipe with several substitutions. They turned out great and at around 100 calories per muffin they have become my favorite. NOTE: You can use any combination of oat bran and wheat bran to make the 1 1/2 cups bran. Oat bran has its own benefits, but adds more calories.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 1⁄2 cups wheat bran
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 cup skim milk (minus 1 tablespoon)
- 1 tablespoon vinegar (added to skim milk above to make soured milk)
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1⁄2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄3 cup Splenda granular
- 1⁄3 cup molasses
- 1⁄3 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1 egg
- 1⁄4 cup raisins (optional)
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Spray muffin cups with Pam (or equivalent).
- Add skim milk to vinegar to make 1 cup soured milk and set aside for 5 minutes.
- Add soured milk to bran; let stand for 10 minutes.
- Mix together applesauce, egg, Splenda, molasses and vanilla and then add to milk/bran mixture.
- Mix together flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
- Add flour mixture to bran/milk mixture, and stir just until blended.
- Fold in raisins (if desired) and spoon batter into muffin tins.
- Bake for 17 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. Cool in pan for 5 minutes, then remove from pan and enjoy!

I really enjoyed these bran muffins! I originally made them for my mother, but ended up keeping the first batch for myself so I had to make her some more. I used 1 cup grape nuts cereal (didn't have bran flakes on hand), did not sour the milk, used 1/2 cup brown sugar instead of Splenda, and substituted the molasses for honey. They were wonderful :) The muffins I made are 4 points plus values if you follow Weight Watchers :)
A very good recipe. Moist, a good flavor and texture. I added 1/2 t. cinnamon, 1/4 t. nutmeg, 1/2 cup chopped walnuts and 1/2 cup golden raisins. Made 14 muffins. I made them in muffin cups and they did stick to the paper a little just FYI. Thank you for the recipe! I will be making these again.
Such a good recipe! Muffins are moist and have flavor. I didn't have wheat bran so substituted with wheat germ and worked just as good. Thank you for sharing this excellent recipe for such wonderful bran muffins.

This question focuses on finding a perfect solution for an asynchronous image resizing process guided by a cron job / job queue.
Images are getting uploaded and saved in the original size on the server. The resize process picks them up, resizes and saves them in two new sizes. For this job I use Imagemagick with the following setup [nice -n 19 convert -density 500 "' . $fullpath . '" -resample ' . $dpi . ' "' . $destFolder . '/%d.jpg"']. "nice" will not prevent a command from using 100% CPU. What it does do is say that if any other process needs CPU, it will get a higher priority than the "nice" processes. As you see this is just some improvement :( because I am sure if users will upload pictures simulataneously the server will definitely crash.
My intention is to process all images through the server and not locally via Flash or Java. So if I can't get more server CPU & RAM, I think I need to implement an asynchronous resize job queue through a cron job which gets offered a limited CPU & Memory usage. While an image is processed, the user gets a thumbnail with the info, "your image will be soon available", to stop him from uploading the same image again. That's my basic idea at the moment.
I work with a PHP framework on a Debian Linux server for this web application. Any help, guiding tips or information resources for such a cron job/job queue/implementation ideas are highly appreciated!!!
Many thanks in advance!

Has anyone seen metamorphic code -- that is, code that generates and runs instructions (including IL and Java Bytecode, as well as native code) -- used to reduce boilerplate code?
Regardless of the application or language, typically one has some database code to get rows from the database and return a list of objects. Of course, there are countless ways of doing this based on your database connector. You might end up accessing the cells of the row by index (awkward, because changing "SELECT Name, Age" to "SELECT Age, Name" would break your code, plus the indexes obfuscate meaning), or using myObject.Age = resultRow.getValue("Age") (awkward, because this involves simply going through every field to set its data based on the columns).
Keeping with the database theme, LINQ to SQL is awesome. However, defining data models is less awesome, especially when your database has so many tables that SSMS can't list all of them in the object browser. Also, it's not the stored procedure writing or the SQL involvement that I dislike; just the connection of objects to database.
Someone at the company at which I intern wrote a really awesome method from our SqlCommand class (which inherits from the System one) that uses .NET reflection, with System.Reflection.Emit, to generate a method that would set fields (decorated with an attribute containing the name of the column) on any model object with a nullary constructor. I would consider this metamorphic because a specific part of the program writes new methods.
This pattern of generating objects from the database is just one example. One which I came across two days ago was databinding support for SWT (via JFace). I made these perfectly clean models with setAddress(Address address) and getName() and now I have to pollute the setters with PropertyChangeSupport fire-ers and carry around a PropertyChangeSupport instance (even if it is just in an abstract base class)! Then I found PojoBindables and now I feel like a level 80 databinder, simply because I need to write less.
Specifically, things that use native code with something like this or a Java Agent would be really sweet.

Driving tips: Parking has regulations, too
With season getting further into gear with each passing day (no puns intended), parking will soon be at a premium at some locations.
While you would be a fool to ignore a "no parking" sign, there are rules that regulate where you can and cannot park.
Drivers sometimes have to leave a commercial establishment's parking area because of overcrowding. In these cases, it is important to know the law.
So, according to the Florida Driver Handbook:
"Where Parking is not Allowed:
-- On the roadway side of another parked vehicle (double parking).
-- On crosswalks.
-- On sidewalks.
-- In front of driveways.
-- By curbs painted yellow or where "No Parking" signs are posted.
-- Within intersections.
-- Within 15 feet of a fire hydrant.
-- Within 20 feet of an intersection.
-- Within 20 feet of the entrance to a fire, ambulance or rescue squad station.
-- Within 50 feet of a railroad crossing.
-- On the hard surface of a highway where parking spaces are not marked.
-- On any bridge or overpass or in any tunnel.
-- Within 30 feet of a rural mail box on a state highway between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m.
-- Within 30 feet of any flashing signal, stop sign or traffic signal.
-- In such a way that you block or create a hazard for other vehicles."
Most of the rules above are usually covered by signs or yellow paint on the curb. But not always (did you know the one about parking near a rural mailbox during daylight hours?).

Ottimo Pizza
Amid the hustle and bustle of Ottimo Pizza's kitchen, a brick oven blazes with baking pizzas, footlong calzones, and Italian breads. Chefs adorn circular and square crusts in whole-milk mozzarella; layer subs with housemade meatballs, premium steak, or crispy chicken breast; and slather wings in savory and sweet sauces. In the casual dining room, decor pieces nod to the restaurant's heritage, from a mural of an Italian countryside to a portrait of the Roman emperor Tiberius made from the same macaroni he used to toss at offending plebes.
90% of 110 customers recommend
"Great pizza and wings... fast delivery... excellent service"
"The pizza and wings were very good!"

The recipient probably justified spending the money as it was the bank's error. However, this story puts a name and story to that windfall. In the end it's not the "cold-hearted bank" that was hurt, but someone innocent who made a mistake. Although we don't know the recipient's circumstances, they shouldn't have spent money that wasn't theirs.

2009 Fall Marc Jacobs Ad Campaign
Fab Ad: Marc Jacobs Fall '09
by Fashion
Like us on Facebook
If you've ever wondered what models look like after partying the night away, peep at Marc Jacobs's Fall '09 campaign. The ad, shot by Juergen Teller, features Natasa Vojnovic, Ajuma Nasanyana, Kamila Filipcikova, and Olga Sherer looking glamorously tipsy wearing Marc's colorful '80s-inspired frocks. To add more emphasis to the throwback theme, the models are styled with opaque tights, teased hair, and makeup reminiscent of Madonna's heyday. It's a little kooky, a little cool — what do you think?

To get rid of Jeurgen Teller as photographer now would be a bad marketing idea, since using Teller for the print ads has become Jacobs' brands' signature (as repetitive as it may be). However I think the brand could use a little something unexpected like using a really outspoken celebrity for a print ad or doing a limited edition collection for a chain like Gap (like Vena Cava did) or H&M.

Hate it... It's something that I regret with fasion : sometimes, their way to be catchy and glamourous is, to me, just ridiculous and vulgar. Here I don't see beauty, I don't feel the cloth are highlighted... People will say "the guy that made it as a genius!" as usual (as it is MJ the brand...) but i'm far to think so xD

even though these might not appeal to some people, but we have to admit that the clothes are wonderful! when people look at these ads, they immediately think MJ. If that is not a measurements of "signature", i dont know what is.

SalescoopCaro 6 years
Marc Jacobs can do no wrong in my eyes when it comes to his designs, but I've never loved his ads. I do think he could change up his campaign a little bit because many of them look the same. However, this is a definitely "a little kooky" and the clothes are lovely, so I'll give it a thumbs up! Caroline www.twitter.com/carolineburas

I'm definitely over the Jurgen Teller overexposed photographs in every single ad campaign. Mix it up, Jacobs, this is super boring advertising.

Is anyone else just totally over Jacobs? It's like he has bought into his own hype and doesn't have to try anymore. His stuff has become a parody.

This year marks a HUGE milestone for CJ Pony Parts...
On September 12, 2010, The Mustang Challenge will hold its final series championship race at Miller Motorsports Park, and then be closed for good.
For years, the SR-71 "Blackbird" has been a shining example of the partnership between Lockheed Martin and the United States Air Force. Now, Jack Roush and Carroll Shelby, two of the Mustang world's biggest names, are collaborating together to create the next SR-71... from a 2011 Mustang.
Hands down, August 14th, 2010 will be one of the biggest days in CJ Pony Parts' 25 years of business! We are excited to announce our 10th annual CUSTOMER APPRECIATION DAY!
These authentic emblems were found only on the 2007-2008 Mustang Shelby GTs, and can not be purchased ANYWHERE, unless you actually own one of these cars. Ford Racing has donated a set to us to sell for charity.
