What is VStar?
VStar is a multi-platform, easy-to-use variable star data visualization and analysis tool that was originally developed as part of the AAVSO's Citizen Sky project. Data for a star can be read from the AAVSO database or from a text file of your own creation. It will plot the data on a light curve and then it's up to you what happens next!
Launching VStar
To get started using VStar, simply click the blue box below to get the latest version. Clicking the yellow box will download the comprehensive User Manual (9.3 MB).
Because VStar uses Java Web Start ™ technology, you will always get the latest version whether you save the start-up icon to your desktop or launch the program directly. You will see a warning dialog box, similar to those presented by other Web-downloaded applications. Click the "Trust" button, in order to launch VStar. Please note that in order to run VStar, you need to have the Java Runtime Environment 1.8 or higher installed. VStar should run on any operating system that supports Java.
VStar can also be launched on Mac OS X using a VStar.dmg launcher application.
If you have a firewall which blocks connection to the AAVSO server (for access to the AAVSO database) you should either disable it or run VStar offline. To run offline, visit the SourceForge VStar download page and download the latest VStar-(version).zip file, unzip it and place it in the location of your choice on your computer. The ReadMe.txt file contains instructions for running VStar from there.
If you have any trouble downloading or running VStar on your computer, please contact Sara (sara @ aavso.org) for help. It will save time if you can provide as much information as possible on your operating system and version of Java you are using along with details of exactly what you see and any error messages you get.
Using VStar
The easiest way to obtain data to plot is by requesting it directly from the AAVSO International Database. To do this, click the "New Star from AAVSO Database…" button in the upper left corner of the VStar screen, then choose a star from the 10-star drop-down list or type in the name of another star from the AAVSO database. You can change the date range of the plot, use the default range (the last two years worth of data), or select "All data" by clicking the checkbox and hitting "OK". Other features include the ability to create your own list of favorite stars to view using the "Star Groups" tab under "Preferences" or to filter the data so you can highlight your own observations.
What Next?
If you haven't yet downloaded and read the VStar Users Manual, do so now! (see the yellow box above) This Manual walks you through all of VStar's features and it is recommended that you follow along with VStar itself as you read.
There is also an excellent 5-minute introductory video (95 MB) created by VStar CHOICE course graduate George Sjoberg available for download.
Another interesting exercise is the 5-Star Data Analysis Tutorial (revised in June 2014 by Paul York). This document will introduce you to VStar by walking you through some of the concepts of basic data analysis. We recommend it as the first place to stop for those new to light curves and variable star data analysis. More help links can be found below.
Some of the things you can do with VStar include:
Mean Curve
Phase Plot
Period Analysis
Polynomial Fit
If you still have questions after reading the VStar User Manual (see the yellow download box above), here are some additional resources you might find useful:
- AAVSO VStar forum - Please feel free to post your questions, suggestions, or observations here.

Chocolate Souffle Cakes
I had a chocolate craving over the weekend. So, I decided to bake a Chocolate Soufflé Cake from my latest cookbook addition, BAKING, by James Peterson. All the recipes seems doable and includes step-by-step picture guides for even the novice baker, like me, to succeed. I will attempt to bake more going forward using the recipes from this cookbook. Obviously, I will share my thoughts about the book with you as well, my valued readers!
Recipe adapted from BAKING by James Peterson
Chocolate Souffle Cakes
(Printable Recipe)
Room-temperature butter and unsweetened cocoa powder for coating thew ramekins
1/2 Cup Butter
8oz Bittersweet Chocolate, coarsely chopped
4 Eggs, at room temperature
1/3 Cup Granulated Sugar
3 Tbsp Flour
Confectioner's Sugar for sprinkling
Brush six 5- or 6-ounce ramekins with butter and coat with cocoa powder.
Combine the butter and chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water. Stir with a whisk or silicone spatula until smooth and melted. Remove from the heat.
Beat the eggs and sugar on high speed with a stand mixer for about 5 minutes or until the ribbon stage: when the beater is lifted, the mixture falls in a wide band onto the surface, forming a figure of eight that stays for 5 seconds before dissolving.
Pour the egg mixture over the chocolate mixture and fold with a rubber spatula while sifting the flour over the mixture. Alternate between adding flour-about one-fourth at a time-and folding until the flour is no longer visible.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared ramekins and smooth the tops. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 2 hours.
Preheat the oven to 425˚F. Bake the souffle cakes for 17 to 20 minutes, until risen almost by half.
Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar and serve. If you want to unmold the souffle cakes, run a knife around the inside edge of the ramekins. Turn the souffle cakes over onto plates, lift off the ramekins, and sprinkle with confectioners' sugar. Serve warm.

Gorgeous little cakes! I look forward to hearing more about this cookbook!ReplyDelete
those are the cutest dished ever! souffles look pretty darn good tooReplyDelete
I'm curious--what's the difference, then, between "lava cakes" and souffle cakes? Because at a glance, they look the same and have similar proportions in their recipes, with the sole difference appearing to be baking times? Do these not gush chocolatey goodness? They do look positively scrumptious, I must confess!ReplyDelete
- AnonymousOctober 20, 2009 at 7:04 PM
Looks yummy - might make this this weekend! Just to clarify... 2hrs in freezer to set & then directly into a 425F oven? Ramekins did not break? Or did you allow it to sit out at rm temp before popping into the oven?ReplyDelete
wow...these look delicious! They look intimidating to make but I might give them a try!ReplyDelete
Nothing better than this on a cool fall evening! loved your photos, and I'm happy I stumbled to find your blog because your recipes look delicious!:)ReplyDelete
btw, these would be perfect for my sweet celebration contest I'd be glad if you could send them in for my blog event!
Beautiful pics, and love that you paired these with the raspberries - perfect combo with the chocolate!ReplyDelete
wow these look awesome!ReplyDelete

Pre Basel: Bremont World Timer (ALT1-WT)
Bremont was commissioned to produce a unique global timer chronometer for the military C-17 Globemaster crew around the world in 2010 and it's been acknowledged as one of the more intricate and complicated military watches of its kind.
Design features of the Bremont C-17 include the etched globe on the dial and a Roto-Click bezel that enables the user to work out the global time zones using the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) airfield identifiers.
Each identifier represents a C-17 landing location in all 24 time zones. The watch itself can show UTC or 'Zulu' time through its adjustable 24-hour hand.
Now the 'Globemaster' watch has been released as the Bremont World Timer (ALT1-WT) as the first global timer watch for use by pilots, travellers and Bremont fans the world over.
The new Trip-Tick case with Roto-click bezel and the highly finished dial has been precisely over-engineered to Bremont's exacting standards.
The steel case has a hardness and scratch resistance of 2000 Vickers.
The internal bezel, which is operated by the crown at 8 o'clock, uses a mechanism developed by Bremont that allows the user to turn the bezel with a satisfying 'click' for each minute turned.
The Bremont World Timer will be available in three dial variations, Blue, Black and White. The watch will be priced at US$5695.
The date window takes its inspiration from the Globemaster's Head Up Display (HUD).
The sapphire crystal covering the dial has nine layers of anti-reflective treatment thus reducing light reflections on the crystal face by up to 95%.
This treatment also makes the watch as scratch resistant as the sapphire crystal to which it has been applied.
The (COSC) certified BE-54AE movement, a base ETA movement, was finely modified and finished at Bremont's ateliers in the UK and Switzerland, and once wound, will use the movement of the wearer to keep its mainspring fully wound.
The movement can be seen through a sapphire exhibition crystal case back. The watch comes complete with a leather travel wallet, hand-made in England.
There's also a strap changing tool and an extra NATO military nylon strap along with the watch's COSC certification.
About Bremont
Bremont is a British luxury watch brand co-founded by brothers Nick and Giles English in 2002. In 2008 Bremont was made the "Best British Emerging Luxury Brand" by Walpole, and last year won "Watch Brand of 2011" at the UK Jewellery Awards. The brand remains true to its original principles of durability, legibility and precision.

"More than just a hobby!'
By Richard Lee Hogue
Born in 1959, 1 grew up around Montour, Tama and Toledo, Iowa. As a youngster I felt a strong relationship to nature that gave me great respect for it's powers and secrets offered within it's endless boundaries that set my sprit and soul forever free. Often, when I wasn't painting or drawing, I was found wandering the timbers surrounding our home, everytime more fascinating than before. Observing nature and people was always an important factor that provided the tools which assisted me, my works and expressions for present and future visions.
I can't say when or where my love for Art began but at an early age my talent for painting and illustrating was already largely, self taught. In a matter of time I had developed a creative potential utilizing a wide range of techniques that helped me portray visions ranging from rural scenes using old photos, sceneries in nature, to animals. Native America and a number of private orders for customers that wanted pictures of their prized homes, antique automobiles and other ideas.
I prefer working in oils. Recent works include a mixture of mediums: acrylic, watercolors e.g. My drawings range from charcoals, pencils, to felt tipped pens and colored pencils or a mixture of just about anything I can find to finish that piece successfully. I have created a few works in clay, wood, as well in silver thus producing various items from pots, busts, boxes, crossbows, to sculpture and jewelry.
It is impossible for me to count all the objects, people and experiences that have inspired the imagination in me. Some of my earliest memories include: when I was about 12 years. Of age, astounding my father while he was bowling and he noticed the pencil portrait of a bowling buddy I'd done.

Average Payment Days In The Construction Sector.
Payment days in the construction sector are averaging between 75 and 90 days, according to a report in Commercial Risk, accredited to Atradius - the credit insurer.
Slow Customer Payments In Construction
The construction sector is well known for payment delays and so it may come as no shock that the average payment days in the sector are between 75 and 90 - that's almost 3 month delays at the top end of that average.
The article, quoting that research by Atradius, goes on to say that Atradius expect 2019 to be another challenge for the construction sector as payment delays and insolvencies combine to create a "perfect storm".
A Solution To Late Payments For Construction Companies
We have lots of guidance about getting paid promptly, on this site. However, the problem of late payments is widespread within construction, and an alternative solution may be required.
Construction finance (also called invoice finance or funding against applications for payment) is a possible solution that will allow customers to bridge the cash flow gap between requesting payment, and getting paid. This kind of finance is only provided by a small handful of funders that specialise in the construction sector.
According to our research, the majority of construction sector companies raise "applications for payment" rather than sales invoices, and these funders are able to finance against applications, as readily as sales invoices. Furthermore, they retain specialist QS advisers to understand the underlying supply contracts, and set appropriate funding levels against them. As an alternative to credit insurance, some of these funders are able to include bad debt protection within the funding facility that they offer.
Whilst this type of facility does not solve the late payment problem, it does mitigate the impact, and smooth the cash flow of the subcontractor that can be waiting long periods to get paid.

I finally got some track time again. It has been over a year since the last time I had been on a track. I felt very rusty. For company I had Ron and Heather with my. Always nice to have support at the track. I planned for this to be a super causal track weekend to get reaquanted with driving and give some ride alongs to Ron and Heahter in the process. Heather caught a cold, so most of the passenger time went to Ron.
The first of the two days was spent learning the track again, we were running it counter-clockwise, the opposite direction I was used to. I also spent the day working on passing, and more frequently, letting cars by. I was paranoid of holding cars up, driving my mirrors, not looking up... The list goes on. Long story short, I could only improve. :)
Day two went better. I started to pick up the pace and handle traffic better. I got some good instruction from a pair of fellow M Coupe owners, which helped.
But really it all came down to confidence, confidence in my car and my ability to drive it. I set my fastest laps in the final session of the second day. A full 3 seconds faster than the previous session. The difference? Confidence. I just didn't lift (as much). Just look at the graph: The red line is the faster lap, and blue the slower (as seen in the video). The big difference was not lifting through the big sweeping turns. To be honest, I didn't think I was pushing any harder.
This event was the first time I used my new Traqmate data logger. So I have GPS, speed, and acceleration data for my laps. Here is a link to a movie of a (slow 2:26) lap of Buttonwillow in the CCW configuration (30M) with the data overlay.
For the record, my fasted lap from the last session was a 2:23. After reviewing the segment times for the last session, that fastest lap didn't have a single fastest segment time. If I could manage to string together my fastest segments, I would have been turning 2:20s. Yikes. Here's hoping my next track post is titled "Consistency."

Starting with the business architecture that means picking your approach to defining the business services. Now you could use my approach or something else but what ever you do it needs to be consistent across the project and across the enterprise if you are doing a broader transformation programme.
On requirements its about structuring those requirements against the business architecture and having a consistent way of matching the requirements against the services and capabilities so you don't get duplication.
These elements are about people processes and documentation and they really aren't hard to set up and its very important that you do this so your documentation is in a consistent format that flows through to delivery and operations.
The final area are the technical standards and this is the area where there really is the least excuse. Saying "but its REST" and claiming that everything will be dynamic is a cop-out and it really just means you are lazy. So in the REST world what you need to do is
- Agree how you are going to publish the specifications to the resources, how will you say what a "GET" does and what a "POST" does
- Create some exemplar "services"/resources with the level of documentation required for people to use them
- Agree a process around Mocking/Proxying to enable people to test and verifying their solutions without waiting for the final solution
- Agree the test process against the resources and how you will verify that they meet the fixed requirements of the system at that point in time
So with REST there are things that you have to do as a project and programme and they take time and experience and you might get them wrong and need them updating. If you've chosen to go Web Services however and you haven't documented your standards then to be frank you really shouldn't be working in IT.
So in Web Service world it really is easy. First off do you want to play safe and solid or do you need lots of call-backs in your Web Services. If you are willing to cope without callbacks then you start off with the easy ones
- WS-I Basic Profile 1.1
Next up you need to decide if you are going WS-* and if so what do you want
- WS-Security - which version, which spec
- WS-RM - which version, which spec
- WS-TX - your kidding right?
The other pieces is to agree on your standard transport mechanism being HTTP. Seriously its 2010 and its about time that people stopped muttering "performance" and proposing an alternative solution of messaging. If you have real performance issues then go tailored and go binary but 99.999% of the time this would be pointless and you are better off using HTTP/S.
You can define all of these standards before you start a programme and on the technical side there really is little excuse in the REST world and zero excuse in the WS-* world not to do this.

Corn prices hit record as crops shrivelJuly 31, 2012: 9:55 AM ET
Corn prices surged to a new record high Tuesday, as the worst drought in more than 50 years continues to plague more than half the country.
Almost 90% of the United States' corn crops are in drought ravaged areas, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and nearly 40% are situated in the hardest hit spots.
Corn prices have soared more than 50% during the past six weeks as the crops continue to shrivel in relentless dry heat throughout the Midwest. They jumped another 0.7% Tuesday to a record high of $8.20 per bushel on the Chicago Board of Trade.
The Teucrium Corn ETF (CORN), which tracks a basket corn futures contracts and is up more than 44% over the past six weeks, slipped slightly on Tuesday.
Soybean prices, which are up more than 20% in recent weeks, also advanced. Prices rose 1% Tuesday to $16.63 per bushel, the highest since July 23. The Teucrium Soybean ETF (SOYB) gained slightly.
Soybean prices will likely continue to rise as the heat lingers in the area where soybeans are the major crop.
"Soybeans are second only to corn as the biggest agricultural product in the Midwest," said Alex Sosnowski, expert senior Meteorologist at AccuWeather.com. "While episodes of rain will continue over some agricultural areas in the Upper Midwest, Ohio Valley and East in the coming weeks, part of primary soybean growing areas will continue to be slammed by heat and drought."
Related: Get ready to pay more for your steak
Sosnowski notes that the next few weeks are crucial for soybeans. From now through mid-August is when soybeans finish their flowering stage and set pods, so mid-August is considered the cut-off for soybeans to receive rainfall without having a serious impact on production. Without rain, soybean yields are likely to be between 10% and 15% lower than the USDA had originally projected.
Prices for wheat, another grain, have also been rising on the back of corn and soybean prices. But on Tuesday, prices for wheat futures fell slightly, and the Teucrium Wheat ETF (WEAT) also dipped.>
The iPath Dow Jones-UBS Grains Total Return Sub-Index ETN (JJG), which tracks the price of corn, soybeans and wheat, was slightly lower.
As the drought continues to spread, and grain prices keep climbing, consumers may be squeezed at the grocery store, since higher corn and soybean prices lead to higher prices for beef, chicken, vegetable oil and other staples.

Building the ROM Crystal - Status 17
Winter's first test of the city provides the best image so far of the ROM's Crystal. Today's image - taken from a web cam on an adjacent hotel - shows its steel structure accented by snow. The Crystal looks as ephemerally compelling as Libeskind's initial design promised.

Loretta Lynn
Hoyt Sherman Place, Feb. 12
Loretta Lynn is my kind of woman. She sings from the heart, tells it like it is and isn't afraid to be herself. That, in a nutshell, is why 1,252 adoring fans of all ages sold out Hoyt Sherman Place on Saturday, Feb. 12 to see the country music legend deliver a 90-minute show that was as much a celebration of family and friends (Iowan Merlyn Hansen sang two songs) as it was a revue of her 50 years in music. Solo singer-songwriter Whitney Mann opened the affair with a 20-minute set of engaging, acoustic Americana songs before Lynn's children (Ernest Ray, Peggy and Patsy) and the Coal Miners further warmed up the audience with a handful of country tunes, followed by a brief video montage of Lynn's career that played on a big screen. But it was the country music queen who rightfully received a standing ovation from the audience when she entered the stage wearing a floor-length white gown, setting the tone for the evening with songs like "They Don't Make 'Em Like My Daddy Anymore" and "You're Looking at Country" before kicking off her shoes and performing barefooted the rest of the night. (When was the last time you saw that at a country music show?) At age 78, Lynn is an honest-to-goodness American idol, and her voice remains pure honky-tonk as witnessed by her performance of classic tunes "I'm A Honky Tonk Girl," "You Ain't Woman Enough (To Take My Man)," "Don't Come Home A-Drinkin' (With Lovin' On Your Mind)" and "Coal Miner's Daughter."

I was a line medic in a Stryker unit during the surge in Iraq back in the day. I remember getting my EOTech not really knowing what it was.
I just recently moved to Texas from California. In California not many people shoot guns, so I had never gotten to fire one. Shortly after I moved to Texas my dad and I had decided we were going to get a modern sporting rifle.
I don't provide feedback on something unless I really like or dislike it. In the case of my EOTech EXPS3, it was definitely a better experience than I was expecting. I purchased a Daniel Defense DDM4v3. I was looking at "red dot" sights, expecting to purchase an Aimpoint.

The joint Open Perception-Ocular Robotics code sprint is ready to start! The sprint will cover an efficient pcl::Grabber driver interface for the RE0x laser sensors, as well as various enhancements to our PCL visualization libraries to be able to handle both larger datasets as well as process data packets coming from these sensors faster. The developer working on the sprint is Pat Marion from Kitware. Pat is already a seasoned PCL coder and has contributed significantly to the iOS and Android port of PCL (see this for more information) and the PCL plugin for ParaView.
We would like to thank all the other candidates for their excellent proposals! We already started following up with each of them individually, as there are many more sprints to come!

Mystic Logic llc
I am a software developer/programmer and have been in the business for about 15 years. I recently created a single-member company to go into the business of developing software on my own. The company is called Mystic Logic llc. I am looking to the good folk of 99designs to give me an eyecatching logo.
No specific audience yet. Just want to create the brand in general.
The words Mystic Logic should be in the logo with "llc" as a small subscript. The business will mainly be software development. Not very sure as to how to should exactly look so I am looking to tap the creativity of the folks here to come up with something eyecatching. I would like the logo to have something that represents logical reasoning as well as something that represents mysticism since great software has a mystical quality and a sense of wonderment. Once I see some designs, I will definitely do my best to give iterative feedback so that I can offer some help. Thanks!

'Super' models
The ones named Kate, Gisele and Naomi tend to get all the ink. But on Nov. 1 in Denver, three volunteers put the "super" in supermodel by taking time from their busy schedules to walk the runway at Macy's Cherry Creek.
The show was part of a luxurious evening designed to generate enthusiasm for the Junior League of Denver Holiday Mart, which opens Nov. 29 at Denver Merchandise Mart. In addition to viewing fashions from the store's Impulse department, there was the opportunity to enjoy manicures, chair massages, make-up applications, refreshments and music.
League President Laura Hopkins, Vice President Lindsay Filsinger and Salon d'Arts founder Natalie Rekstad-Lynn joined the pros on the runway — a task that involved more than just a few seconds in the spotlight.
Each took time off from work on Halloween — Hopkins is a human resources executive with Western Union, Filsinger is a Realtor and Rekstad-Lynn was just days away from Le Jeune Salon, an auction and sale for young collectors that takes place Nov. 9 at Gallery 1261 — to be fitted for the clothes they would wear. On show day, they arrived about an hour ahead of the crowd to have their makeup done and get dressed.
Their labor of love was rewarded with enthusiastic applause, and brisk Holiday Mart ticket sales.
"We were expecting 100 people and we stopped counting at 260," said Jordan Bullock, co-chair of the JLD's partner projects and one of the event's organizers. "We ran out of wristbands (used to identify those who'd paid the $20 admission and were thus entitled to all of the party's amenities) and I believe we've sold all of the Holiday Mart tickets that we'd brought."
Additional information on Holiday Mart can be seen on the Junior League website, jld.org.
Pictures taken at the evening of pampering are posted at denverpost.com/SeenGallery.
Denver Post Society Editor Joanne Davidson is a sustaining member of the JLD and also modeled in the show. She was channeling her "inner Cindy" right up 'til the moment of the grand finale, when she stepped out of one of her shoes.

Rich and fragrant, chicken soup is liquid gold. When you make soup, start with fresh ingredients, real chicken, vegetables, and water. You don't need bullion cubes with all that extra salt and perhaps other artificial ingredients. I make a large pot of soup and freeze some of the pure golden liquid for future uses. With Sukkot coming, and eating outside the plan, soup is a good thing to put on the menu to ward off the chill in the night air. [click to continue…]

We spend most of our childhood memorizing the words to songs we don't understand. They talk about "the power of love" before we've had our first crush, or "riding the lightning" years before we're legally old enough to do so. We asked you to show us what kids think is going on when they listen to the radio, before any of it makes sense.

Event ID 10 — TPM Driver Operation
Applies To: Windows Server 2008
This version of Windows includes a device driver that allows the TPM Base Service (TBS) to communicate with and share the use of a Trusted Platform Module chip in the computer. Any failures in communication with the TPM or unexpected results cause the TPM driver or the TBS to log event messages.
Note: The BitLocker Drive Encryption feature uses the TPM by default.
Event Details
|Windows Operating System
|Symbolic Name:
|A buffer underflow was detected.
Restart the computer
In order to perform operations correctly, an application that uses the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) must be able to communicate correctly with the TPM, using the application programming interfaces (APIs) or Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) providers that, in turn, rely on the TPM Base Service (TBS), which uses the TPM driver. The ability to share the TPM between multiple components and applications requires that all such components and applications are written to use the APIs and WMI providers correctly.
Some applications may provide a method to retry the particular operation. If such an option or command is not available, or does not resolve the issue, restart the computer.
If problems continue after restarting the computer, investigate any software applications using the TPM, particularly if new applications have been installed. Details are provided in the event log entries to assist software developers in troubleshooting problems in their applications.
It is also possible that the TPM hardware may be malfunctioning. Because the TPM is a hardware device, you need to contact your hardware supplier or hardware support team to resolve this issue.
In order for the TPM driver to function correctly, the TPM must be correctly recognized by Windows.
To perform these procedures, you must have membership in Administrators, or you must have been delegated the appropriate authority.
To verify that the TPM is correctly recognized by Windows:
- Open Device Manager.
- Expand Security Devices.
- If the Trusted Platform Module version 1.2 is not present under Security Devices, or if Security Devices is not shown as a category, your computer might not have a TPM version 1.2, or the computer is unable to recognize the TPM.
- Right-click on the Trusted Platform Module 1.2, and then click Properties.
- In the Trusted Platform Module 1.2 Properties window, look at the device status on the General tab. The status should indicate "This device is working properly."
If the TPM is correctly recognized by Windows, then you can also verify that the TPM driver is operating correctly.
To verify that the TPM driver is operating correctly:
- Click Start, type tpm.msc in the Start Search box, and then press ENTER.
- If the User Account Control window appears, click Continue.
- In the TPM Management on Local Computer window, examine the Status section. The status should indicate "The TPM is on and ownership has been taken."
Note: Other application software may also make use of the TPM driver. Consult the documentation supplied with each application for steps to verify the correct operation.

Our School
Dear Floyd Light Community,
The Falcon staff welcomes you to Floyd Light Middle School! This year we will continue the high quality education and inviting environment you have heard about or already experienced. Since taking this position, I have heard nothing but great things about Floyd Light. We understand that middle school is truly a transition time for your student with unique needs – he/she is not an older elementary student or a junior high school student. We take these middle school needs into consideration when developing all of our policies and procedures.
We offer a rigorous academic program that includes language arts, social studies, science, and math. In addition, we are extremely proud of our elective program. While many middle schools are eliminating their program offerings, we continue to offer high-level performance-based and production-based classes. In addition, for students not on grade level, we require targeted intervention classes. In other words, we ensure growth for each and every one of our students.
We encourage all our students to get involved in co-curricular activities. Students involved in these activities generally do better in school. Music, drama, student government, and/or athletics are a great way for students to establish a deeper relationship with their classmates and staff. This relationship makes them feel a part of something bigger than themselves – an essential learning for middle school students.
At Floyd Light we strive to educate the whole child. This year we received America's Healthiest School bronze award, recognizing us as a leader in school wellness. Next year we will be striving to achieve the silver award. We aim to equip kids with the resources and skills to lead healthy lives and develop lifelong healthy habits. We recognize that health and academic success are inherently linked and because of this we are working to provide a healthy environment for our students at school. All students at Floyd Light are required to take PE and Health every year (grades 6-8). Every student will have PE every other day for 3 quarters of the year while Health fills the final quarter. In addition, to serving healthy food in our cafeteria, our school prohibits using food as a reward. We encourage healthy eating, by providing healthy snacks students can purchase in the student store, such as fresh fruit.
We also require that all foods served and offered during the school day meet or exceed the USDA's Smart Snacks in School nutrition standards. This includes snacks that are not part of a federally reimbursed child nutrition program, birthday parties, holiday parties and school-wide celebrations. We recognize that we need to provide consistent messaging around healthy eating to avoid sending youth conflicting messages. While celebrations can include healthy foods, they can also provide opportunities for kids to play and enjoy music, dance, games, sports and other activities.
Finally, our students can only reach their potential with their families' active involvement at Floyd Light. Families are our student's first and most important teachers. Even though most students beg their families to not get involved, it is important that they do! The stronger the home/school relationship, the better chance our students have to succeed.
Do not hesitate contacting me with any clarifications or questions. We are very excited for another outstanding year here at Floyd Light!
Doug Pease, Principal

I append below two e-mails that I received back in early 2007, which may be of interest. The first confirms the good news you already know about Michelin. The second provides some additional good news about Vittoria.
First message
Date: Tue, 23 Jan 2007 14:45:21
From: "James, Andy" <Andy dot James at uk dot michelin dot com>
To: vi5u0-michelin at yahoo dot co dot uk
Subject: Michelin Tyres
Dear Mr Hatton,
I have had a speedy response from our design and manufacturing departments
in France regarding your question about animal products and their use in the
production of tyres and tubes.
Pascal Pirotte has sent the following response; "The main ingredients in our
products are natural rubber, latex, silica, carbon black, natural pigments,
petroleum-derived products, Aramid, steel, nylon and oil. To the best of my
knowledge no animal based or derived ingredient is used in the manufacture
of our tyres or tubes. I cannot comment on what other manufacturers may or
may not use in their own products!"
I hope that this helps but if you do have any further questions relating to
this, or indeed, any other Michelin cycle product related matter, then
please do not hesitate to contact me again.
Happy cycling!
Andy James
Account Manager - Cycle Products - UK & Ireland

Dear Dan,
I'm back to you with the answer: I confirm that stearate used in our
products does not contain animal-base ingredients, it is made from palm.
Best regards,

Mercer, Johnny
Johnny Mercer (John Herndon Mercer) (mûr´sər), 1909–76, American lyricist and songwriter, b. Savannah, Ga. Mercer, who was one of American popular music's most accomplished wordsmiths, began writing songs as a teenager; in 1929 he moved to New York City, where he worked as an actor and a singer. In 1933 he had his first hit,
with music by Hoagy Carmichael. Two years later he moved to Hollywood, where he wrote lyrics for numerous musicals and other movies. During his long career Mercer collaborated with many composers, including Harold Arlen, Harry Warren, Jimmy McHugh, Jerome Kern, Vincent Youmans, and Marvin Hamlisch, writing the words for such classics as
"Hooray for Hollywood"
"Blues in the Night"
"One for My Baby"
(1943), and
"Come Rain or Come Shine"
(1946). He was nominated for 18 best-song Oscars and won four times, including for
"Moon River"
in 1961 and
"Days of Wine and Roses"
in 1962, both with music by Henry Mancini. Mercer cofounded (1942) Capitol Records.

Prince George's Community College in Maryland will use a US$5 million grant from the U.S. National Science Foundation to address a major concern in cybersecurity circles, that the U.S. isn't producing enough qualified security professionals.
The four-year NSF grant, announced in late September, continues a partnership between the agency and the community college. In 2005, the NSF gave the college a grant to set up a regional program called CyberWatch, which as grown to a consortium of 95 colleges and universities and about 50 companies and other organizations focused on educating future cybersecurity professionals.
CyberWatch has received about $5.5 million from the NSF before the newest grant.
"For the past seven years, we've focused on increasing the quantity and quality of the information security workforce," said Casey O'Brien, CyberWatch's director. "The focus is really on workforce impact."
The new grant will help the school broaden its partnerships and develop cybersecurity training programs that can be copied by other colleges, said Charlene Dukes, president of the college. The school will develop training programs that focus on skills that agencies such as the U.S. National Security Agency and Department of Homeland Security are looking for, she said.
The community college pushed for the designation as a cybersecurity training center because of its proximity to federal agencies, defense contractors and military bases needing cybersecurity workers, Dukes said.
"When you think about what's going on in the Washington, D.C., area, it was almost a no-brainer to begin to look at what role the college could play in advancing the cybersecurity field," Dukes said. "To us, it was just a natural match."
Many cybersecurity experts have raised concerns in recent years about the number of qualified professionals available in the U.S. Dukes sees the market for security professionals growing as the U.S. government and private companies focus more heavily on the growing threats of cybercrime and cyberterrorism.
Some graduates of PGCC go directly into the cybersecurity workforce and others continue their education at four-year schools, Dukes said. Some students get jobs as systems or network administrators, others work in penetration testing or malware analysis jobs, O'Brien said.
Until recently, many companies and federal agencies had questioned the qualifications of two-year college graduates, but that attitude is changing as hiring managers see a lack of qualified candidates, O'Brien said.
"Industry and government are so desperate for qualified folks, they're starting to look to the community colleges, finally," he said. "There's a big push right now in industry and government to get people with hands-on skills, and that's the space the community colleges thrive in."
In addition to partnerships with other colleges, CyberWatch also works with several school districts to provide cybersecurity programs for students as young as elementary school. The program also offers after-school programs and summer camps to get students interested in technology careers.
Other partners of the PGCC and CyberWatch include Cisco Systems, the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency, Lockheed Martin, the U.S. National Security Agency and Northrop Grumman.

At this point, supply-side economics have been examined, analyzed, debated, celebrated and rejected ad nauseam. Cut taxes, the theory goes, and the money that would have gone into government coffers is instead invested in the private economy. How you feel about the theory has less to do with how you spend and more to do with how you vote.
However, recent analysis from the nonpartisan Tax Foundation gives hope to Reaganites everywhere, who in this decidedly demand-side environment are sorely in need of a boost.
The foundation's conclusions focus specifically on the budget sequester, but it isn't a great leap to extrapolate to the economy at large.
Instead of cutting government spending on so-called discretionary programs, wrote Richard Morrison, manager of communications for the Tax Foundation, sequestration should target entitlement programs.
"The major source of increased federal spending in recent and projected years is from entitlement spending, and this is left largely untouched by the sequester," added chief economist William McBride. "Research indicates that it would be better for economic growth, short-term and long-term, to cut mandatory spending."
The worst option of all, which has already been suggested by some lawmakers, he diplomatically noted, would be to replace the sequester in part or whole with higher income taxes.
"Economic research has shown that the vast majority of countries that have successfully reduced their debt from the levels the U.S. is experiencing today have done so by reducing spending rather than increasing taxes." (The Tax Foundation says it is nonpartisan to protect its 501(c)3 status—I think they might be fibbing.)
Whatever the result of the D.C. donnybrook, tax season 2013 brings its share of challenges for this year and beyond. This is why our cover story on the top tax reduction strategies is so relevant. If you've already instituted some of them and your clients are reaping the benefit, then great. If not, the sting of the recent tax bite should be enough to get the conversation going and carry it through to next year.
