The context and goals of IMPULSE
The goals of the IMPULSE program are to improve retention rates in engineering while also improving students' learning of engineering fundamentals, teamwork, and communication skills. This case study recounts how, in a short time, this program led to significant documented improvement in retention rates of engineering students.
It offers a two-semester sequence (11 units per semester) for first-year engineering and physics majors that integrates mathematics, physics and introduction to engineering. The sequence includes the following courses: Physics for Scientists and Engineers I & II, Introduction to Applied Science and Engineering I & II, and Calculus for Applied Science & Engineering I & II. Each course is taught by a faculty member, assisted by an undergraduate teaching assistant (a junior or senior hired by the professor) and technical support staff. Students progress through the sequence in cohorts. Each professor assigns the grades for his/her own course. When they give assignments that span more than one course, each professor incorporates outcomes from these projects into the grades for their individual course.
At the time of our
to UMD (Spring 2000), 87 students who started IMPULSE in the fall were continuing with the second semester, and another 41 (who had to take precalculus in the fall) had just begun the IMPULSE program. (Since then, the program has grown by about 10 percent.) UMD physics majors and approximately 80 percent (all but Civil Engineering) of the engineering majors participate in the program. If IMPULSE students with undecided majors choose to major in Civil Engineering, the IMPULSE credits are accepted.
The IMPULSE professors, their undergraduate teaching assistants and technical support people work as members of a team, interacting frequently about the curriculum and the progress of their students. The faculty find that it's easy for their undergraduate assistants (who are paid at student hourly rates in the neighborhood of eight dollars per hour) to relate to the freshmen. They rely on their undergrad assistants to provide role models and to keep communication channels open. The faculty also have noticed that, as a result of their teaching experience in IMPULSE, the undergraduate assistants learn a great deal while performing their role, and some began considering a future as a faculty member.

Key Facts |
Bridge Name | Facility Carried / Feature Intersected | Location | Structure Type | Construction Date and Builder/Engineer | |
108th Street Bridge
| 108th Street Over Thornapple River | Rural: Barry County, Michigan and Kent County, Michigan | Metal Stringer (Multi-Beam), Fixed | 1932 By Builder/Contractor: Willits Brothers Construction Company of Bay City, Michigan and Engineer/Design: Michigan State Highway Department |
Technical Facts |
Main Span Length | Structure Length | Roadway Width | Main Spans | NBI Number |

This bridge appears to be one of Michigan's most important metal stringer bridges, although the historic bridge inventory apparently did not recognize its significance. This appears to be one of the oldest examples of a bridge with original R4 railings in the state, and is also an example of a bridge which was either a transitional bridge or a prototype bridge as the state highway department moved from one standard plan to a new standard plan for stringer bridges. The old plan included stringers with a unique concrete balustrade design and a concrete facade over the outermost stringer to give the bridge an overall appearance of a concrete bridge when it was in face a steel stringer. This plan was abandoned for the new plan which did not include the concrete facade on any beams, and began the use of R4 railings. Most of the other earliest instances of bridges with original R4 railings on them are dated to around 1935, while the last of the concrete facade and balustrade stringers date to 1932 or earlier. The 108th Avenue Bridge, with a construction date of 1932, features the R4 railings, but also features the general pier design and concrete facade seen in the concrete balustrade plan bridges of the late 1920s and early 1930s. The R4 railings on 108th Avenue were determined to be original (and not a later alteration/addition) because the inset design on their concrete railing is the oldest design. If the railings were not original they would have more than likely featured the more common keyhole design on the concrete railing posts. In addition no alteration to the bridge is recorded or was observed during on-site inspection.
As such, the 108th Avenue Bridge appears to be an extremely rare bridge which shows a transition from a bridge like Cleveland Avenue Bridge to bridges like the US-41 Sturgeon River Bridge.
R4 railings are the decorative railings that would give the gift of beauty to Michigan stringer bridges until the 1960s. For roughly 30 years, Michigan used these railing panels, fitted between railing post designs that varied over time and from bridge to bridge between a few different styles. The R4 railing has defined much of Michigan's 20th century historic bridges.

Does anyone know the most affordable means of transportation between Tulalips resort area and seatac. I've checked the airporter (Bellair) and it seems a bit expensive. Anyway if you know something please let me knoe. Thank You
You could do it for just a few dollars but it will take you a long time. You can take the Everett transit bus from the Casino to Marysville, transfer there to the Everett transit bus to Everett, then take the Sound Transit express bus to Seattle and transfer there to the Sound Transit train which will take you to the Airport. If you want to skip the time it will take you from the casino to Everett, which will probably the longest part of your trip, you might grab a taxi and then take the bus from Everett. It looks like BelAir wants $44.00, I guess it depends how how much you value your time.
One other thought, you might take the taxi from Casino to Marysville and then the bus, this will save you some time and money rather than the taxi to Everett.
Ask the resort if they have a shuttle to somewhere more convenient. Many of the casino & resort facilities in the region offer some sort of transortation service, though this particular one doesn't say anything about such a service on their web site.

Hi looks like this mid week musings thing is now a regular gig, so why not...a great way for me to talk about a whole bunch of randomness. Hope you are having a great week...mine is good, busy and productive. I cannot say summer has been super relaxing so far but I have managed to squeeze in some down time and the little I have had has been wonderful! I am also offering a wonderful giveaway....all details on bottom of this post.
I am actually headed to New Orleans on Friday morning and cannot wait. Its been a few years since I have been there and I cannot wait to hit the antique shops on Royal st., indulge in french pressed coffee and a piping hot sugar laced Beignet and go to some of the wonderful restaurants we had the pleasure of visiting last time. This is absolutely NO time for a diet.....the food in New Orleans is off the hook amazing! Any suggestions are more than welcome!
For anyone else who has "a thing" for New Orleans....this book is one of my favorites. Got it about a year ago and it just captures that New Orleans essence to a tee, a really wonderful book!
Many of you are so kind to ask about sweet Teddy, he is doing well.....hair 90% grown back so its good to see him whole again. Heres a few pics of him doing what he does best......yep, relaxing!
Does he think he is CZ Guest here or what?
1st place (and my personal favorite)!
A close 2nd place
Tied for 3rd place
Several of the others vied for 4th place...what can I say, my readers, you have excellent taste!
Finally ordered the wallpaper for the back powder room (this is off the kitchen and the bathroom we use on a daily basis). I decided it was one of the first I loved and often times we go back to the original choices.....this was the perfect blend of something elegant but not too formal, fresh and crisp. I really like it and it gives off the exact vibe I am looking for......will finalize the check I will do the window treatments in and likely have some cute little fabric shades made for the sconces too.......
I also like covering shades with fabric for a custom touch...experimented here, me likey!
Can you believe I am STILL waiting (only six months and counting) on the Thomas O Brien rock crystal sconces? Crazy! But I have looked and looked for a suitable replacement to no avail....so wait I will. Every time I look at them, I realize they are perfect and I can envision them in my room so hopefully the newest delivery date of August is finally the date that I can see these babies and get them up and get this bathroom done!!!! Once they are up above the tub and at my vanity...I just need my chandelier, a chair and I am set...woo hoo!!!!
Here they are.....by Thomas O Brien
They will go above the tub and on either side of the mirror (single ones) on the vanity....
And on either side of the mirror
And very excited finally got these gorgeous Ralph Lauren sconces ordered for the living room....cannot wait to get them! They are really beautiful, leave it up to Ralph!
They will go on this wall (one either side of botanicals) as well as between all the French doors in the living room.
Store biz......I am not going to be adding anything over the summer. While business is going wonderfully I am hoping to take a little time to enjoy summer as it goes by so fast. I have a few brackets left and this is it as well as a few other items I am just about sold out of. I am planning to revamp things come fall, phasing a few things out and adding some exciting new things, so stay tuned and thanks for your continued support and enthusiasm!
I have one of the black and gold brackets on the right and one pair of the antique white painted brackets. I am selling the one black and gold for $45.00 and the pair of large ant.white for $100. This is the very last of my brackets and these prices are far far below retail. Email me if you wan them.
Last antler pillow.......
Last gray chinoiserie pillow..........
Last small dough bowl, since I have one left I am selling this for $100 even. A great deal if you know the price of dough bowls...contact me if interested!
Last small olive tray (they will be in again sometime later August).....
Last black chinoiserie tray......$90.00
And last have two of these beautiful blue and white scalloped dishes left and that is it! These are soo pretty, I kept one for myself! If you are intersted in this item, you can purchase online (have only two left)!
If there is something in the marketplace you feel there is a lack of, or you would like to see me carry, shoot me an email. I love hearing your feedback!!
Now onto my giveaway, giving a stunning silver cake spade and a darling set of crown bookends to two lucky winners!
All you need to do to enter is leave a comment on this blog after visiting my online store and tell me an item or two that you would love to receive. That's it! I will announce a winner on Tuesday morning. Click here to visit my store.
And the beautiful silver highly decorative cake spade.....
Thank you Kristy and Beth from one of my favorite blogs Design Chic for featuring my butlers pantry in your gorgeous post today about pantries!! Great post, click here to visit!
So that's my randomness for a few days. I am leaving early Friday for New Orleans and will return early next week. I will miss visiting all of my favorite blogs but it will give me something to look forward to when I get back. I do have access to my emails while gone so feel free to contact me if you need to. And if you have any must see or do suggestions for the Big Easy, please by all means pass them along! Wishing you a wonderful rest of the week and a fabulous weekend ahead! Until next week........

"Randomised, controlled trial of low-dose heparin for prevention of fatal pulmonary embolism in patients with infectious diseases"
Appraised by: Deb Bynum, MD
Date: September 11, 1997
Clinical Bottom Lines:
1. Overall there was no beneficial effect of 3 weeks of heparin prophylaxis on necropsy verified, hospital-aquired, fatal pulmonary embolism in nonsurgical patients over the age of 55.
2. There was no difference in overall mortality between patients who received heparin prophylaxis (5.3%) compared to control patients (5.6%, p value 0.39)
3. There was also no difference between rates of DVT and PE at necropsy between these groups: thromboembolism was found in 95 (49%) of the heparin treated patients and 93 (49.2%) of the control group; PE was found in 33 patients on heparin and 26 patients in the control group; clinically relevant fatal PE was found in 15 patients in the heparin group and 16 patients in the control group.
4. There was no difference in mortality between these groups in patients with underlying malignancies (24 % in the heparin group and 25.6 % in the control group).
5. There were slightly more serious bleeding events found at necropsy in heparin treated patients (n=14) vs control (n=6), but this was not statistically significant.
6. There were significantly more non-fatal PEs in the control group vs the heparin group during the study (58 vs 29, p value .0026) as well as overall non-fatal thromboembolic events (116 in the control group, 70 in the heparin group, p=.0012).
The evidence: Prospective, randomised, controlled, unblinded study of 19751 consecutive patients aged 55 years or older admitted to the department of Infectious Diseases. 11693 total patients were randomised to receive low dose subcutaneous heparin prophylaxis (5776) or nothing (5917). The primary endpoint of the study was defined as necropsy verified, fatal, hospital aquired pulmonary embolism.
Group | Mortality | Necropsy | Thromboembolism at necropsy | Any PE | Fatal PE |
Heparin | 304 (5.3%) | 194 (63.8%) | 95 (49%) | 33 (17%) | 15 (8%) |
Control | 333 (5.6%) | 189 (56.8%) | 94 (50%) | 26 (13.8%) | 16 (8%) |
1. Although there was no observed difference in mortality or necropsy proven thromboembolic events, the occurrence of fatal PE was significantly delayed in the heparin group -- this suggests that heparin does protect against thromboembolic events but that the effects are short-lived after discontinuation of the heparin.
2. The study was limited in that it was unblinded and by the fact that informed consent was not obtained until after randomization ( 695 patients, 12 %, originally assigned to heparin refused or for other reasons did not receive heparin). No consent was obtained for patients in the control group...mmm.
3. Patients were excluded from the study if they were judged to be mobile (n=872), have a significant risk of bleeding (n=603), or felt by their primary doctor to have a strong indication for heparin prophylaxis (n=365). Excluding patients because of a perceived greater need for prophylaxis may skew results, making the heparin arm look less favorable.

Not Impressed
by An MSN Autos Consumer on 04/06/2004.
Trim: 1991 Honda Civic DX sedan, Owned 1 year.
It gets very good gas mileage, and gets me around for the most part.
As soon as I bought it, with 92,000 miles on it, the timing belt went out (common for this car I'm told), and broke the water pump, and the brakes need replaced. Both cv joints also went out (also common). The passenger door doesn't like to open, the back door doesn't open, and the drivers door will open but I don't use it because it rubs against the body of my car and has put a huge dent in it, and dents it more every time I do. So to get out, I crawl over the shifter, into the passenger seat. Which also seems to be common in Honda's after looking around. Also, not a big deal, but the interior does not hold up well at all. There are several rips in it, including one very large one.
Overall review:
It gets me around efficiently, but has cost me A LOT of money. I regret buying it personally. I would suggest looking around at some other cars before buying this one. I'd also like to add, the finish is coming off, it needs repainted desperately, but I've spent all excess money on repairs...

Perfect College Car

Overall review:
I bought this car new when I was going to college. I babied it for the first 4 years then beat the heck out of it. It never once needed a major repair until 2002 when I had to replace a rusted gas tank. I have other cars but will probably keep this car until it simply won't run anymore, which could be another 150,000 miles.

Best car to have in these rough times
by kruzraceR on 08/15/2002.
Trim: 1991 Honda Civic CRX Si, Owned 4 years.
Fast, economical, fun to drive, unique, good resale value, and lots of potential for aftermarket accessorizing.
The fact that it's discontinued.
Overall review:
Love this vehicle and many have offered to purchase it because they also love it. Sometimes think of selling for something new (it's 12 years old) but it still runs excellent.

Deron Williams will not play tonight against the New York Knicks. Also out are Paul Pierce, Jason Terry and Andrei Kirilenko.
Deron Williams, Andrei Kirilenko and Jason Terry are out tonight against the Rockets. Brook Lopez is a game-time decision. Jeremy Lin is out for the Rockets.
The Nets will be without Deron Williams, Brook Lopez, Andrei Kirilenko and Jason Terry tonight against the Lakers.
The Nets will have Shaun Livingston tonight, but will be without Deron Williams, Brook Lopez, Andrei Kirilenko and Jason Terry against the Toronto Raptors.
The four Nets that have missed the past several games did not practice once again in preparation for the team's game against the Raptors tomorrow in Toronto. Shaun Livingston didn't practice, but it probable.
Deron Williams, Brook Lopez, Andrei Kirilenko and Jason Terry will all miss today's game against the Detroit Pistons. Williams and Lopez have missed the last four games, which have all resulted in Nets losses.
The Nets' injury woes continue in Minnesota. Jason Terry joins Deron Williams, Brook Lopez, and Andrei Kirilenko on the sidelines with a bruised left knee.
Deron Williams participated on 5-on-5 drills today at practice, but it's still not certain that he'll play on Friday against the Miami Heat in their preseason finale.
Jason Kidd announced that he will be resting his entire starting five -- Deron Williams, Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett, Joe Johnson and Brook Lopez -- in tonight's game against the Celtics.
Deron Williams practiced in the one area he has failed to all preseason, 5-on-5 drills. There was some rust, but the star point guard is making progress with his injury and Jason Kidd is encouraged.

During my growing up years in Memphis, the city was known as "The City of Churches" because we had more churches than gas stations. At the same time Memphis also had the distinction of "America's Cleanest City." I guess being known for anything positive these days is not what's important.
Anyone remember the week of "Clean up, Paint up, Fix up?"
You can clean up anything and cover it with paint, but does that makes it better? The outside should look and feel just as good as the inside. A home with beautiful curbside appeal can be torn up inside.

Q: I've found a baby squirrel. Now what do I do? A: First and foremost, contact a local wildlife rehabilitator. Check local veterinarians for contact information. Please visit my rehab page for tips on how to correctly care for the animal in the meantime.
Q: Where can I find some general information about squirrels? A: Click here to read more about squirrels. However, most of this general information is about the North American Sciuridae family.
Q: What is Squirrel Appreciation Day, and who is the founder? A: I am the founder of Squirrel Appreciation Day, which was started in 2001. It falls on January 21st, and while there are no official events scheduled, you can help celebrate by putting out extra food for the squirrels.
Q: Help! Squirrels are digging in my potted plants! What can I do? A: Try putting river rocks on top of the soil after you've potted your plants. Make sure no soil is visible to the squirrels. Your pots and boxes will be heavier, but this has proven to be a valuable aid to keeping squirrels from uprooting my plants.
Q: How can I keep squirrels away from my bird feeder? A: You can purchase "squirrel-proof" feeders, but squirrels are intelligent animals and will most likely find a way to get to your feeder. Keep feeders away from trees and/or other objects where they can leap from and land on the feeder. Try putting food out specifically for the squirrels to distract them from the birdseed. Squirrels will eat unsalted sunflower seeds, unsalted peanuts, bread, and a number of vegetables and fruits. However, remember that unsalted peanuts and other treats are just that--too many treats will lead to health problems for the squirrels.
Q: Do squirrels make good pets? A: No! It is illegal to keep a wild animal, such as a squirrel, without a permit in some states. Secondly, it's not fair to the animal. If for no other reason, please consider the damage a squirrel could do to your house!
Q: How do I get squirrels out of my attic? A: Try soaking cotton balls in peppermint oil and placing them around the attic. It's not an unpleasant smell for humans, but it is too strong for squirrels. Please consider doing this before setting live traps and relocating the squirrels. The squirrel you relocate could be a mother, and the babies won't survive without her.
Q: How long do squirrels live? A: That really depends on the type of squirrel. For example, Eastern gray squirrels can live up to 15 years, fox squirrels can live up to 10 years, red squirrels can live up to 9 years, and Southern flying squirrels can live up to 13 years. But due to weather, predators, and other dangers, wild squirrels rarely live long lives.
Q: Do squirrels remember where they bury their nuts? A: No. While some of the nuts are retrieved, the rest are either found by other squirrels or remained buried. The good news is that some of those buried nuts sprout into saplings.
Q: Do black (or white) squirrels really exist? A: Absolutely! Black and white squirrels are just different phase colorations of the gray squirrel. Click here to read about the white squirrels from Brevard, North Carolina.

What is the nature and extent of crime? How will law enforcement deal with the new typologies of crime that appear? What are the consequences for record numbers of inmates in a corrections system bulging at the seams? Has Homeland Security effectively created a safer environment in a post 9/11 world?
The Bachelor of Arts in Criminal Justice program examines these and other questions about the scientific study of criminal behaviors in their complex sociological settings. You'll study the components of the American criminal justice systems, including the Constitution; police; corrections and the courts; crime categories; statistical patterns and trends; the pragmatic analysis of various institutions; and critical issues within our social, legal and penal systems.
