As some of you may recall, SVBC has been working on a project to promote formation and improvement of Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committees (BPACs) in San Mateo County. We believe that BPACs and similar advisory bodies (Bicycle Commissions, Bicycle Advisory Committees) are an important way to institutionalize active transportation advocacy within a community. A forum for bicyclists and pedestrians to weigh in on city projects is an effective way to ensure that infrastructure projects meet the needs of all road users and become part of a city's health and environment strategies.
Perhaps more important from a city's standpoint, though, is that fact that BPACs are required if a city wants to fund projects through a pot of State of California dollars known as Transportation Development Act (TDA) Article 3 funds. This requirement is specifically called out by the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC), which distributes the TDA funds in the Bay Area. In MTC's Resolution 875, Procedures and Project Evaluation Criteria for TDA Article 3 funds, the Commission states:
Each county and city is required to have a Bicycle Advisory Committee (BAC) to review and prioritize TDA Article 3 bicycle projects and to participate in the development and review of comprehensive bicycle plans. (BACs are mandated by State Transportation Control Measure [STCM #9], adopted by MTC on November 28, 1990, MTC Resolution No. 2178, Revised).
A city BAC shall be composed of at least 3 members who live or work in the city. More members may be added as desired. They will be appointed by the City Council. The City or Town Manager will designate staff to provide administrative and technical support to the Committee.
That seems pretty clear to me. Each county and city is required to have a BAC to receive these funds. However, in San Mateo County, there are currently multiple cities without such committees that have, as recently as last year, received TDA Article 3 funding for bicycle and pedestrian projects. How is this possible?
I contacted MTC in an effort to clear up my confusion. I expected that there had been some oversight, or that perhaps the cities had similar, differently named, committees or commissions that fulfilled the MTC requirements. But, as it turns out, the explanation is much simpler and more worrisome: MTC ignores its own requirements.
In San Mateo County, there is a countywide BPAC that serves the City/County Association of Governments (C/CAG). That BPAC, which comprises elected officials and at-large members from across the county, reviews and prioritizes all TDA Article 3 grant requests that come in from the cities. According to the staff member I spoke with, MTC considers that review process sufficient, effectively turning the requirement for county and city BACs into an acceptance of either a county or city BAC.
In cities like Redwood City or San Mateo, cyclists and pedestrians don't have a local advisory committee to participate in when infrastructure funding decisions are being made. To be sure, those two cities are working hard to reach out to the public - Redwood City through its partnership with SVBC's Bicycle and Pedestrian Working Group and San Mateo through a diligent campaign of public outreach surrounding its pedestrian and bicycle plans. But without a formalized committee, those kinds of efforts are made at the discretion of city staff, and have no formal protocol.
What's the solution? Committees can be costly to maintain, but they serve an important function in bridging the divide between local government and the public. And let's not forget that these particular committees are technically required for cities to receive much-needed bicycle and pedestrian funding.
Muckraking is not my usual enterprise, but SVBC feels strongly that BACs, BPACs, and Bicycle Commissions are important in ensuring bicyclists and pedestrians have a place at the table whenever infrastructure and planning decisions that could affect them are made. I was encouraged when I first learned that MTC had a financial incentive to promote these committees, and disheartened to hear that it was an unenforced resolution. Hopefully, as we continue to work with cities in San Mateo County and elsewhere, the important and valuable aspects of these committees will spur their creation, regardless of enforcement.
What do you think? Should the MTC resolution be enforced? Are BPACs and BACs worth it?
Yes, cities should have BPACs
Agree that the MTC resolution should be enforced and cities should be required to have bike/pedestrian advisory bodies. To use one example, the current informal setup in Redwood City is sincerely well intentioned and better than nothing, but it does not have publicly noticed open meetings, so there is much less opportunity for public engagement.
I also think that BPACs/Commissions are very valuable for advocacy, but they are often not sufficient for advocacy. Without an engaged community, the formal Committee/Commission may tend to serve a technical advisory role responsive to the requests of staff and/or Council. The formal body on its own may not be proactive to address needs and problems in the community. And without broader public support, it may be difficult to achieve implementation of the solid recommendations of the BPAC.
With public interest and public support, more opportunities will be proactively raised, and more good plans will be implemented with public support.
MTC and city BPAC requirement
I think that lobbying MTC on the subject of actually requiring cities and the County to have active BPACs should be an SVBC project. As a long-time public member of the C/CAG BPAC, I saw this requirement ignored for many years. The lack of public involvement in choosing projects was evident in a number of proposals. This is a timely subject for SVBC, as a new funding cycle approaches, for ranking of projects and distribution of TDA Art.3 and Measure A money in early 2013.
MTC funding requirements get cities attention
When MTC added the "complete streets" requirement, Menlo Park quickly moved to add a "Complete Streets" element to its plan. Staff time might look expensive for a city that lacks a BPAC until they look at it as a cause of lost grand funding.
What about cities in Santa Clara County?
Doesn't MTC Resolution 875 apply to cities in Santa Clara County as well? I assume that it does, and that furthermore, MTC ignores Resolution 875 for cities in Santa Clara County as well. Correct? Does VTA also ignore Resolution 875 and award funding to cities without BACs?
Palo Alto, for example, has never had a BAC as defined by MTC Resolution 875, since the members of the Palo Alto Bicycle Advisory Committee (PABAC) are not appointed by the City Council. It appears from MTC's new requirements for Complete Streets Policies that cities must also have BPACs - Palo Alto will be disqualified for funding due to this new requirement (if MTC chooses to enforce it), since PABAC is not a BPAC (it's a BAC).

There is such a huge learning curve with sewing. Every single time I sit down at my machine, I learn something new. I always leave my mistakes intact, to help me remember the lesson! Today's lesson: When piecing fabrics that have a pattern with a clear "top" and "bottom" on it, be sure to check the orientation of the pattern before you sew! I now have blocks with hearts facing every which way. ******************************** ROFL! LOL! Its a RR at the LQS! We're gonna make a bunch of HST and then practice our FMQ! What the heck does that mean?! Look here: http://boards.hgtv.com/eve/for...4011632/m/4553927667 | |||
Funny you metioned this...I was looking at a pttern I've chosen for a quilt and the yardage...then happened to notice I will have to cut my strips differently and may not be able to strip piece because my fabric is directional, and I don't want my flamingos or palm trees to be upside down... " Life is short, Break the rules, Forgive quickly, Kiss slowly, Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably, And never regret anything that made you smile.. " | ||||
Better hearts in opposite directions than what I did. Somehow when I cut up some baby animal fabric for a baby quilt most of them had the tail end only showing. It was obviously a strong repeat and the heads ended up in the seams. Absurdly funny! | ||||
And the lessons go on, and on. Even the same ones. lollll Made some fabric Christmas trees for the DGSs. Simple to cut out so I stacked my fabric for front and back together. Because they were cut in triangles I thought I'd go ahead and use the scraps to make a couple smaller trees and use up the fabric. Oops, the scrap backing was....upside down, of course when I sewed them together. They hung on MY doors, no one else got one. lollll Ya can't tell from the front. | ||||
Evelyn, you should have made some little tails to go with the quilt. Then everyone could have played 'Pin the Tail on the Animal'. Double gift. lollll | ||||
Your not alone. I am putting toghther a scrap top for QWL with diagonal strips. I got all the rows sewon on then saw that I had sewn the las 4 rows on the side instead of the bottom LOL. so I had to take them off but it was easy to just take them off and sew to the right end LOL. Not like I had to take each block off. | ||||
Grrr, I just lost another post to a trigger word. Second one in a few minutes, and I haven't done that in months. I can't figure out what I'm saying. I think I'll go stitch for a while. Lesson for today? I don't know how to write any more. "Laughter is timeless; imagination has no age, and dreams are forever." Walt Disney | ||||

To remand something is to send it back. Remand implies a return. The usual contexts in which this word are encountered are reversal of an appellate decision, and the custody of a prisoner.
When an appellate court reverses the decision of a lower court, the written decision often contains an instruction to remand the case to the lower court to be reconsidered in light of the appellate court's ruling. Cases are also remanded to Federal agencies for reconsideration in disputes over regulation or administrative decisions. See INS v. Ventura.
A prisoner is said to be remanded when she is sent back into custody to await trial.
Definition from Nolo's Plain-English Law Dictionary
To send back. For example, an appeals court might reverse a lower court's decision and send a matter back to that court for a new trial. Or a judge might remand into custody a person accused of a crime, if there appears to be a legal reason to hold the person for trial.
Definition provided by Nolo's Plain-English Law Dictionary.

One Andrews man killed, another severely burned in gas explosion in Boston
A man from Andrews who was working on an underground fuel tank at a gas station near Boston has died after a fire and explosion in the tank about a month ago, WMUR-TV reported.
Donald Scott, age 24, of Andrews died this week and was with another 33-year-old Andrews man when the explosion happened as they were inside a tank, WMUR-TV reported.
Firefighters say the men were relining an underground storage tank with fiberglass at a Mobil station in Manchester when something went wrong, the CBS TV station in Boston reported.
"There is a report that there was a light that had been dropped and broken inside of the tank," Manchester Fire Chief James Burkush told WBZ-TV. "So we're going to try and verify that."
Andy A. Snow, the other man in the tank, suffered severe burns from his waist down, reported the New Hampshire Union Leader.
The two men were working for a company called Tank Tech, which is based in Missouri.
A spokesman for Tank Tech Inc. told the Union Leader that the incident was the first for their company, which has been in business since 1985
However, the New Hampshire Union Leader reported that they discovered Kentucky fined Tank Tech $125 for problems in an incident in Hickman, Ky., that resulted in an explosion that killed a man in the summer of 2001.

Reviews for Peanut Butter Silk Pie(39)
Sort By :
This was a very easy recipe. I changed it by adding 1 cup of peanut butter and 8 oz cream cheese. Kept the amount of sugar and whipped topping the same. Used a larger crust. My picky husband likes it. He was afraid it would be to sweet for him. I think if I had made it exactly like recipe it would have been to sweet for him.
This was a very easy, fast recipe that tastes delicious. I didn't have peanuts for the topping and used small milk chocolate chips instead.
Just made this recipe for tonight's dinner. It is absolutely fantastic. I used 1 cup peanut butter and instead of salted peanuts, I used milk chocolate chips and cut up Reese Peanut Butter Cups to decorate the tops of the pie. Will definately make this pie again!!!!
do you use a mixer to beat the pb, cc & conf sugar, or do you beat by hand?
Excellent recipe, been making for years and everyone thinks its complicated!! I sometimes add a little vanilla and if it seems too thick I add a splash of milk or cream..yummy!!!

Territory control is a tried and true game mechanic. Usually these types of games feature a military conflict, each player wresting control from the others via show of force or trickery such as in Risk or Small World. But direct player conflict isn't often a theme of European game design, opting instead for more passive tactics like obstruction. Terra Mystica (published by Z-Man in the US) not only eschews combat, but also puts the focus on the terrain itself. READ MORE
Contrast is an interesting game. I wish it were a better game, because the setting is great, the characters are interesting and the soundtrack did something that few others do: it caused me to stop playing, so that I could better appreciate the music. It's held down, though, by what all games need to be successful: gameplay. READ MORE

The theme of Falcom and XSEED's latest, Ys: Memories of Celceta, is exploration. Series hero Adol Christin has always been portrayed as an adventurer, but this time around, the focus turns away from combat and puzzles and puts most of its eggs in a basket of discovery. It is an interesting take on the Ys formula, but due to some technical issues and a few underwhelming design choices, the Vita debut of the series isn't as exciting as it should be. READ MORE
It's an exciting time to be a video game enthusiast. Feelings of welcomed anxiety accompany insatiable fascination with the coming of new consoles. You want to read everything you can, while jumping up and down like a four-year-old discovering trampolines. Along with these feelings comes a tsunami of analysis, debate, competition, reviews and industry predictions. The "old" consoles and games will receive price drops, the new consoles will fuel the fire of internet flame wars and, here at Snackbar, we'll talk and talk and talk about the Xbox One and PS4 until our throats are sore. New, new, new.
All major changes have consequences. Nothing exists in a bubble; new consoles are great for some, but what does it mean for the sector of the gaming industry that won't immediately benefit? Will brick-and-mortar stores slowly fade away, as Blockbuster did? Will we see the death of the mid-range developer? READ MORE
The team behind Adventure Time: Explore the Dungeon Because I DON'T KNOW! certainly had all the pieces in place to make a compelling title. WayForward has a long history of making good-to-great experiences using licensed properties, and the show (especially creator Pendleton Ward) certainly enjoys and reveres the medium. The first collaboration was a riff on Zelda II, an inspired choice that was nostalgic without being overdone. This second title's inspirations are less clear. READ MORE
Grobda is a mash-up. It can be described as a hectic Berzerk clone, an evolved version of Atari's Combat or a Xevious spin-off. There are hints and touches and small influences, yet by mixing them so seamlessly it manages to become its own game, free to be judged on its own merits. READ MORE
The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds is essentially a direct sequel to A Link to the Past, set in the same world and with many callbacks to one of the finest games ever made. Many of the mechanics, such as the constant switching between Hyrule and another world — in this case the kingdom of Lorule (a bit of wordplay also made by The Wonderful 101, oddly) — make a return in some form or another, but Link Between Worlds adds some modern twists to the classic Zelda gameplay.

Dean Dodrill: I've been gaming for a long time, ever since we got our first standalone Pong machine. My earliest gaming experiences were on the TI-99 4a computer, but it wasn't until the NES came along when a video game ignited my sense of wonder. I still remember watching a friend play Super Mario Bros. for the first time, and being blown away by the fact that you could climb into the clouds. READ MORE

Remember when you were a kid and claimed that your dog ate your homework, when really you just didn't get around to writing your book report? Of course, your teacher knew you were fibbing. While most of us are past blaming the dog instead of taking responsibility for our actions, this doesn't mean that we're beyond using excuses—whether we realize it or not. As a personal trainer and fitness instructor, I've heard almost every reason under the sun for why people "can't" be active, let alone do something specific like lifting weights for the recommended 20 to 30 minutes twice a week. However, outside of an actual health condition and a doctor's note saying that strength training isn't recommended, lifting weights is so beneficial to the majority of people that all excuses are busted pretty quickly. The benefits of weight training are numerous, including increased muscle strength, balance, bone density, lean muscle mass, insulin sensitivity and cardio endurance—not to mention that strong, lean muscles simply look better! So if you've been making excuses and opting out of weight training, read on to get the (nice) kick in the workout pants that you need to start benefiting from regular strength training. Busting 7 Common Strength Training Excuses Excuse #1: Strength training is boring. If you get bored easily or like activities that are a little more fast-paced and engaging, then strength training really is for you—the sky is the limit! From groupclasses that pair lifting weights to fun music, to suspension training with the TRX, workout DVDs, free weights, kettlebells, circuit training (more on that below) and even using your own body weight at home while watching TV, the options are endless—and certainly not boring. The strength-training workout for you: Sign up for a session with a certified personal trainer to show you the basics of strength training including proper form, breathing and appropriate weight selections. Also be sure to read these tips to stay injury-free! 7. I'm trying to lose weight, so cardio is more important. When it comes to weight loss, a calorie burned is a calorie burned, no matter how you go about it. And the whole idea behind losing weight is cutting calories through both diet and exercise—not just cardio exercise either. In fact, many strength workouts like bootcamps, kettlebell training and circuit training can count as cardio (see excuse #2 above) and help you burn more calories than easy- to moderate-intensity cardio does. In addition, strength training adds muscle to your body, which boosts your metabolism, as muscle burns more calories per ounce than fat. It can also help to reshape and tighten your body. Bottom line: If you're using excuses to keep you from lifting weights, it's time to drop the nay-saying and just try it. Strength training is an essential activity for overall health that will help your body composition, thereby making weight-loss easier. So don't delay; try strength training today! |
"To like many people spontaneously and without effort is perhaps the greatest of all sources of personal happiness."
- Bertrand Russell
"I would like to become tolerant without overlooking anything, persecute no one even when all people persecute me; become better without noticing it; become sadder, but enjoy living; become more serene, be happy in others; belong to no one, grow in everyone; love the best, comfort the worst; not even hate myself anymore."
- Elias Canetti
Your Body's Metabolism—Explained
Get insight into how you burn calories day and night
By Alyssa Shaffer
Did you know that as few as two nights of not getting enough sleep can slow your metabolism? Or that your body uses more energy to digest whole foods (like fruits and veggies) than processed, packaged foods? Below, Alyssa Shaffer—longtime health, fitness and nutrition writer and the author of Turn Up Your Fat Burn—addresses common curiosities about your body's ability to burn calories.
Q: My friend can eat anything she wants and not gain an ounce, but I take one bite of a brownie and it goes straight to my hips. What gives?
A: Thank your parents for your brown eyes, your wavy hair and, in large part, your metabolism. Sorry to say, but your friend just naturally burns more calories than you do. That said, even though you're born with a certain metabolism, you do have quite a bit of control over it, notes Dr. Westcott.
Here's why: About 60% to 85% of the calories you burn during the day are spent on basic functions like breathing, digestion and circulation (this is called your resting metabolic rate, or RMR). Most women need at least 1,200 calories to support their RMR. The rest of your calorie burn is split between working out (going for a swim or a run) and everyday activity (walking to your car, carrying groceries). All of these areas (even your RMR) can be manipulated to make your everyday life more active (as we suggested on page 99), so you can eat more without putting on pounds.
Q: Do I burn more calories during the day than at night?
A: Yes. Although your RMR stays pretty consistent, you're more active during the day so you're burning more calories overall. Research actually shows that people who eat the majority of their calories later in the day tend to eat more calories, weigh more and have more body fat. Try making breakfast and lunch your bigger meals.
Q: Does dieting hurt my metabolism?
A: You may have heard that yo-yo dieting (gaining and losing weight intermittently) can permanently throw off your metabolism, but research shows that's not the case. What does slow your metabolism is eating too few calories. Even just a day or two of a very low-calorie diet can have this effect, so make sure you're taking in at least 1,200 to 1,500 per day.
Q: Could a medical condition cause my metabolism to slow down?
A: Possibly. People often blame weight gain on hypothyroidism (an underactive thyroid), but only a small percentage of people have it severely enough to make a noticeable difference in weight, says Dr. Garber.
How Many Calories Did You Burn Today?
You can get a pretty good estimate of your metabolism (how many calories you'll burn throughout the day, not including working out) with some simple formulas.
If you're mostly sedentary:
You rarely exercise, sit at a desk or at home for most of the day and drive to run errands.
Multiply your body weight by 12.
Calories burned by a 150-pound woman: 1,800
If you're moderately active:
You exercise 3 to 5 days a week at a light-to-moderate intensity level (a 30-minute brisk walk); strength-train once or twice a week; stand a lot at your job or taking care of kids at home; you walk a few blocks to the store.
Multiply your body weight by 14–15.
Calories burned by a 150-pound woman: 2,100–2,250
If you're very active:
You exercise at a moderate-intense to very intense level at least 6 days a week; strength-train at least 3 times a week; are on your feet or moving about for most of your day; you mostly walk to do errands and rarely drive.
Multiply your body weight by 16–18.
Calories burned by a 150-pound woman: 2,400–2,700
20 Ways to Burn More Fat

Global Reference Systems
- Introduction
- International Earth Rotation and Reference System Service (IERS)
- International Laser Ranging Service (ILRS)
- International VLBI Service (IVS)
Utilization of satellite methods for positioning and navigation purposes enables integration of the national reference systems into precise global reference systems.
International Earth Rotation and Reference System Service (IERS)
The International Earth Rotation and Reference System Service (IERS) provides the astronomical and global terrestrial reference systems as well as data on the earth's rotational behaviour. As a result of an international call for tenders BKG was entrusted with the direction of the Central Bureau of the IERS. The Central Bureau is the Coordination Centre between the Directing Board, the Analysis Coordinator, and the Technique, Product and Combination Research Centers of the IERS. It has to ensure the flow of information and data between the international organisations involved.
Extensive webpages were established that are continuously supplemented in order to provide information about the IERS with its manifold components. On these sites not only general information or important links to other WEB sites are given, but also the structure of the new IERS is represented and the pertaining functions are explained. By the publication of IERS messages, Annual Reports and Technical Notes information is supplied to the interested users. Besides maintaining the IERS Information Service, replying to inquiries concerning the IERS and providing general information on earth rotation constitute also a task of the IERS. Moreover, the Central Bureau organizes the meetings of the Directing Board. One of the essential tasks consists in setting up a database in which all relevant data and products of the IERS are saved and archived (IERS Website).
International Laser Ranging Service (ILRS)
The ILRS and coordinates the laser rangings to artificial satellites (SLR) in order to support international geodetic programs and satellite missions, develops standards and specifications, which are a prerequisite for product consistency, and defines observation and analysis strategies in order to ensure the quality of the global coordinate network. Precise satellite ephemerides, coordinates and velocities of the observation stations, variations of the geocentre, statical and time-dependent coefficients of the earth's gravity field, fundamental constants of physics, and moon parameters number among the fundamental products of the ILRS. The ILRS products are made available to IERS to serve as a basis for the creation and maintenance of a precise International Terrestrial Reference Frame (ITRF).
The principal emphasis of the work of the ILRS Analysis Centre (AAC) of BKG is on the determination of station coordinates, there motion rates and the earth rotation parameters within the frame of "single satellite, multi-satellite combined solutions". For the corresponding computations the UTOPIA program package as well as the Centre's own software developments are used. Further, procedures are established which allow to automate computation of the ILRS products.
The ILRS Group participates in the elaboration of an extended SINEX format for the ILRS. For this purpose, the series "SINEX solutions for single satellites" was integrated into an overall solution using a specifically developed software for network combinatorial computations.
The monthly SLR solutions are examined for geometric, numeric and temporal stability in order to assess the quality of the solutions as a basis for reference systems. To this end, methods serving an improved error analysis were developed. At the same time a-priori information referring to the observation network could be successfully counted back. These methods are very useful for the purpose of checking the stability of individual solutions before they are made use of for combinatorial computations.
International VLBI Service (IVS)
BKG's VLBI Group is one of the three "Primary Data Centers" worldwide of the IVS and is together with the VLBI Analysis Group of the Geodetic Institute of the University of BONN (GIUB) also one of the six IVS Analysis Centers worldwide (BKG VLBI Group Website). Within this framework the following activities are carried out:
- Generation of "VLBI Databases" for X – band and S – band from the raw data supplied to Leipzig by the correlator of the Max-Planck-Institute for Radio Astronomy. This includes calibration of the influences of the ionosphere, troposphere and cable transit times, the removal of ambiguities and outliers in the measuring data and their weighting. At the end of this process a set of files consisting of the databases and the calibration files is delivered to the IVS.
- Compilation of a time series for UT1 – UTC from the "Intensive Experiment Series" as a IVS product (ca 200 experiments annually for the time being). The current time series can be retrieved from the IVS Data Centres under the name bkgint01.eopi.
- Compilation of two differently parameterized time series for the earth orientation parameters (UTC1 – UTC, polar coordinates, nutation offsets) from the 24-hour VLBI experiments available since January 1984 (bkg00001.eops and bkg00002.eops).
- Preparation of global solutions on the basis of all available 24-hour VLBI experiments for the derivation of reference systems (station and source coordinates, motion rates).
- The analysis products provided within the frame of the IVS are retrievable from the IVS Analysis Center. Two of the three aforementioned EOP time series enter into Bulletin B published monthly.
In its function as a IVS Data Centre BKG mirrors several times a day the IVS datasets of the CDDIS, Washington, and of the Observatoire de Paris as well as the official IVS website. For the exchange of data an input area is available for all IVS components, through which VLBI databases, analysis products and other relevant data enter into the IVS system. After a successful syntax check these data are adopted into the Data Centre.
The "Operational Data Center" is maintained for the system's own purposes of analysis. Presently, all databases of the VLBI experiments performed over the period 1976 to 2001 are stored in it. All data and the whole software are backed up in an automatic mode on a Tape Library.

executory interest
A future interest in property that will be triggered on the happening of a stated event. For example, to A and his heirs, but if A dies without marrying, to B and his heirs. B has an executory interest.
An executory interset can be springing (meaning the previous interest was help by the grantor) or shifting (meaning the previous interest was held by someone other then the grantor).
See: Future Interest.
Definition from Nolo's Plain-English Law Dictionary
An interest in property (particularly real estate) that will pass to another only if certain events occur.

Published Jan. 29, 2013 By Jane Sander, KNDU TV
High school students and their parents making the plunge into college applications, attended a program Sunday a Columbia Basin College in Pasco aimed at making the process a little easier.
Figuring out financial aid can be confusing for college applicants but College Goal Sunday helps families understand it.
With nearly 70 informational sessions in Washington state this year, there are plenty of opportunities out there to help students get the help they need.
Education funding cuts and increasing tuition rates have many families wondering how they're going to pay for college.
The College Goal Sunday program is holding events across the state to explain how to get the assistance students need.
High schoolers and their parents filled out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid or FAFSA form with college scholarship counselors Sunday to make sure they get as much aid as possible.
"It's better than just throwing you out to the sharks. They have someone, a little life saver to come help you. I think it really helps clear up a lot of questions that came up during the whole application process. We started it on our own and coming here and seeing what we did wrong, it helps," said Katie Chaney, a high school student applying for financial aid.
"The FAFSA is sometimes scary application to fill out. So when you have that support it's really made it useful and beneficial to have those resources for families," said Teresa Santoy, College Bound Scholarship Counselor.
Santoy said students should take advantage of the numerous scholarship and aid opportunities available.
She said when families learn about the many outlets for financial help, it can change a young person's future.
"Seeing the amount of assistance they may be eligible for or hear about the various scholarship opportunities, scholarship search engines like thewashboard.org, it changes their mind. It sparks their eyes and really allows them to see and be able to pursue the dreams that they may not have pursued otherwise," said Santoy.
Santoy recommends filing the FAFSA by February 1st.
Here are some websites that can fill you in on financial aid and scholarships: collegegoalsundaywa.org, thewashboard.org, and collegesuccessfoundation.org.

Unclaimed Mega Millions Prize Set to Expire June 6
As of today, no one has stepped forward to claim a $10,000 Louisiana Lottery Mega Millions prize won on Dec. 9, 2011. The winning ticket was purchased at Brothers St. Claude on St. Claude Avenue in New Orleans and is set to expire June 6, 2012.
The ticket matched four of the five white ball numbers drawn and the yellow Mega Ball number. The winning numbers for the Dec. 9 drawing were 04-12-29-49-51 and the Mega Ball number was 44.
The holder of the winning ticket has until 5 p.m. on the date of expiration to claim the prize, which is subject to applicable federal and state tax withholdings. Prizes greater than $600 may be claimed at any of the Lottery's five regional offices located throughout the state or at Lottery headquarters in Baton Rouge.
"We look forward to the winner coming forward to claim this prize. In the meantime, the individual should treat the ticket as cash," said Lottery President Rose Hudson. "It is also a good idea to sign the back of the ticket for security purposes."
Winners of the Lottery's draw-style games must claim their prize within 180 days of the drawing. After prizes have passed their redemption deadlines, they are deposited into the Lottery's unclaimed prize fund, which is returned to players in the form of increased payouts on scratch-off games and player promotions.
Ticket purchasers must be at least 21 years of age. The Lottery encourages responsible play and urges anyone or friends of anyone with a gambling problem to call toll free 1-877-770-7867 for help. A list of large unclaimed prizes set to expire in the next 90 days can be found on the Lottery's website at www.louisianalottery.com/unclaimedprizes.

Customizing SMF > SMF Coding Discussion
copyright help
I have been working on a theme (2.0) and I'm trying to get the copyright so that it is readable and I am a bit stumped. I was able to get all but the very bottom copyright link readable by adding code in the #footer_section in the index.css for a link background color. But I can't figure out how to make the very bottom link (SimplePortal 2.3.3 © 2008-2010, SimplePortal) have a background color so it can be seen (without making all the links have a background color which I do not want, its only the copyright that can't be read). Is there a specific id for that last copyright link? Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you for your time
Arantor Beeblebrox the First:
There's not really any support on offer here unless the main SMF copyright is going to be visible.
As far as SP goes, you probably should talk to the SP folks, on www.simpleportal.net (and note that there have been 2 releases since 2.3.3)
Ok, the main SMF copyright disappeared when I put in mine for some reason is there a way to have both? I'm still learning
And thanks, I'll mention to the forum owner that there has been have been 2 releases sense 2.3.3
Arantor Beeblebrox the First:
How exactly did you add yours in?
Assuming we can get SMF's copyright back up along with yours, I have some suggestions for you on how to accomplish the desired outcome.

Awesome addition to any closet
I check out Limited.com on a daily basis and came across this skirt and decided to give it a try. I love the color! I ordered my normal size and it was a perfect fit! While the material isn't the same as the normal skirts I purchase from Limited I wouldn't say the quality is any less. Very excited about this purchase and even more excited to start incorporating it into my closet.

Ladies and Gentlemen, let me introduce you to my new favorite file explorer app for Android, Solid Explorer. The little jewel is still in beta (which means it could have a few bugs), but don't let that stop you from installing it today and giving it a whirl for yourself. Let me lay out some of my favorite features for you.
First up, like any top notch app, the user interface is clean, easy to use, and simple. The main interface consist of two individual panes that are easily switched by swiping your finger to the left or to the right. Each pane can be set differently according to your preference of view styles (which I'll show you in a minute), sorting options, or filtering. You can long press on a folder or file to bring up an options dialog. The dialog is context sensitive, based on the type of file or folder that you're trying to manipulate. For example, if you long press on a ZIP, RAR, TAR.GZ, or TAR.BZ2 file, you'll have two options pop up for extracting the contents of that file. You'll also be given options to copy, move, rename, send (which integrates with Androids share functions), view properties, or archive the current item (which also supports ZIP, RAR, TAR.GZ, and TAR.BZ2).
Skipping down to the bottom of the app, we have Solid Explorer's menu. This is where the magic really begins.
The first item on the left is the "New" button, which allows us a way to create new folders, and new files. It also allows for an array of new connections, including FTP, SFTP, SMB, DropBox, and Box.net. I was able to test the FTP and Dropbox connections and both worked seamlessly. When you're browsing a remote connection of any sort, your active pane's browser gets pushed into the background. If you then change panes, a simple tap of the Android icon in the top left corner gives you easy access to all of your current connections and local folders. This is great if you frequently access files in the cloud or want to use your web hosts storage to backup or offload files from your phone.
Next on the menu is the Actions button which allows you to Cut, Copy, Paste, Delete, or view Properties of currently selected files or folders. It also allows you to select multiple items using checkboxes and a quick "Select All." Perhaps my favorite feature of the Action menu is the Properties feature. I've been long looking for an app that would allow me to quickly visualize where space was being used on my SD card so that I could quickly free up some space on my SD. When you give a quick tap of the Properties button, it takes you to a new screen that allows you to quickly view the details of the item(s) you have selected. If you don't have any item selected, it takes you to the Properties screen for the SD card and gives you an overview of the entire contents of the SD.
Moving right along, the Filter button comes in handy for quickly finding a file or folder that is currently on your screen. It does not search recursively (meaning that it only looks in the current directory, no deeper), but results are instantaneous. As soon as you type a letter, it begins filtering immediately.
The jump button allows you to quickly move around to different locations that you may not have open in the background. If you have root access, you can use this menu to quickly view the System root by tapping Device, then System root. The Photos and Downloads buttons are customizable via the settings of the app, in case you've changed the default locations within your Camera or Browser. The Network button quickly allows you to reconnect to previously connected network connections.
The Menu button, which is also accessible if you press the Menu button on your device, allows us to customize our Simple Explorer experience. Search allows you to search everywhere in your current browser (it works for the network connections as well), AND the search feature integrates with Android's search button. After installing Simple Explorer, you'll be given an option to allow Android to use Simple Explorer's search feature by pressing the Search button on your device.
Further down the Menu button are the View and Sort buttons. These allow you to fine tune your current pane. My favorite view is the "Detailed List." The only thing I wish were different about the detailed views is the ability to display the size of folders.
Another big feature worth pointing out is the File Sharing feature. If you're Android device is connected to a Wifi network, enabling File sharing will allow you to browse your phone via FTP. I can't stress enough how much I LOVE this feature. No more usb cables, no more dismounting your SD, no more "Safe removal." I love it!
The Settings button allows you to further tune Simple Explorer to your liking. There are quite a few options in the Settings. Perhaps of greatest interest are Theme (currently only Light and Dark are available), the Default directories for both panes, and the Quick start guide.
As with anything in life, there are a couple of negatives to point out. First of all, the app crashes on the Properties page on my phone when I switch back and forth between the various property pages. Also, in the Top 10 files, occasionally the Top 10 files will repeat. After number 10, number 1 will reappear, and scrolling down will reveal the top 10 list having been duplicated. These, of course, are bugs, and this app is still in beta, so I'm sure that these issues will be ironed out.
Overall, hands-down, Simple Explorer Beta wins my vote for best Android Utility App. You owe it to yourself to download it from the Play Store and give it a test drive yourself.

I was thinking about trying to chart some songs that my various relatives have put out, and I ran into a problem. My aunt does vocals and guitar style music, and I think people might like it on Rock Band. But, It might be annoying to people to have only two instruments, so I thought it might be possible to chart the second, more rhythm-like guitar that's on some of the songs, to bass.
Is this flat-out not allowed? Or would it be allowed under certain circumstances?

2013 season
A Midsummer Night's Dream
Directed by Charles Fee
July 12 - August 25, 2013
Our 2013 season commences with an exhilarating production that features gorgeous costumes, stunning sets and one of the most talented professional acting companies in the West!
Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream is sure to enchant the entire family. An exhilarating night of midsummer madness, this magical comedy brims with mistaken identity, mismatched lovers and mischief-making fairies. Boldly inspired by the marvelously mod influences of a rock 'n' roll infused 1960s London, our production of Shakespeare's comic masterpiece ensnares two pairs of lovers and a rustic troupe of would-be actors in a magical-mystery tour de force. A Midsummer Night's Dream is a joyful celebration of love lost, transformed and restored that casts a powerfully pleasing spell on audiences of all ages.

Catch up Online Before the Season Premiere January 17 at 10/9c.
Harvey Specter (Gabriel Macht) is the best closer in new York City. He's at the top of his game closing mergers, acquisitions and even divorces; it is in his blood. But even the best lawyer in New York City can use some help.
While running from a drug deal gone bad, Mike Ross (Patrick J. Adams), a brilliant young college-dropout, slips into a job interview with Harvey. Tired of cookie-cutter law school grads, Harvey takes a gamble by hiring Mike on the spot after he recognizes his raw talent and photographic memory.
Mike and Harvey are a winning team. Proving to be an irrepressible duo and invaluable to the practice, Mike and Harvey must keep their secret from everyone including managing partner Jessica (Gina Torres) and Harvey's arch nemesis Louis (Rick Hoffman), who seems intent on making Mike's life as difficult as possible. Mike's other allies in the office include the firm's best paralegal Rachel (Meghan Markle) and Harvey's no-nonsense assistant Donna (Sarah Rafferty) to help him serve justice.
