SP III affirms Dickinson's mission to prepare young people by means of a useful education in the liberal arts and sciences for engaged lives of citizenship and leadership. In order to achieve this end we must address the student educational experience comprehensively. As early as 1962 a campus committee on the state of study at Dickinson concluded:
A liberal education cannot be provided without regard for the physical, social and moral climate of the community. Our purpose can be furthered or hindered, according to the kind of community we build. All aspects of the community must be considered: from student housing and study facilities; to extra-curricular and cultural opportunities; to faculty salaries and teaching loads. Above all, thought must be given to the ... values of the community and the human interaction and interrelationship within the community….
This statement fundamentally articulates what might be called a campus ecology view of the student experience in which all dimensions of activity are seen as deeply interwoven. All dimensions of student activity—in the classroom and beyond—should be informed by characteristics central to Dickinson's vision. These shared characteristics of both our academic and student life program include:
While respecting the need for balance in our programs, SP III confirms the college's strategy of placing special emphasis on areas in which Dickinson can offer distinctive, exceptional opportunities. Such an approach enriches our students' experience and advances the institution, as exemplified by our national leadership positions in global education and sustainability.
At the same time, SP III recognizes one major area in which we have not articulated a compelling vision and charted a path to excellence. For decades, the college has struggled to develop a consistent program for student life beyond the classroom. Reports and studies from 1962 on reveal continuing concern and frustrations about campus life, namely: tension between social and intellectual dimensions in many students' lives; ambivalence about the role of the Greek system; underdeveloped potential of the residential and social experience to bolster a more mature learning environment; the inadequacy of facilities in support of student life; and a weakly developed sense of campus community.
Strategic Plans I and II addressed these concerns but largely failed to find ways in which our newly articulated vision for the college could help resolve them. SP III focuses on this task. The time is right to advance a more substantive vision of how the experience beyond the classroom challenges and supports students who are seeking a stimulating college experience. Over the past decade the college has done a remarkable job of competing for outstanding students and recruiting an increasingly diverse, talented student body drawn from an ever-widening geographical pool. Continued success rests heavily upon the long sought improvement in student life on our campus.
Strategic Goal A: Dickinson's curriculum reflects our commitment to independence by offering students freedom to choose from many options in fulfilling all-college requirements, selecting a major and picking electives. This breadth of offerings—unusual for a college of our size—and flexibility work to our advantage both in allowing students to tailor academic experiences to their individual needs and in recruitment. Similarly, we offer an unusually wide range of opportunities for student involvement in student life, both in the residence halls and through a multiplicity of organizations and activities. Both the emphasis on independence and breadth of opportunity that underlie the student experience should be maintained.
Objective 1. While recognizing that we are operating in a period of limited resources, Dickinson should maintain and even enhance its rich curricular repertoire, continuing our practice of developing new programs that address emerging contemporary issues and reflect special areas of faculty and student expertise and interest. One potential vehicle for achieving curricular innovation and "movement" at a time of resource limitation is broader application of certificates, currently exemplified by health studies, security studies and dance.
Objective 2. Freedom of choice in the academic program helps students develop independence, enhances capacity for lifelong learning and inculcates a sense of accountability for decisions. It also makes the college responsible to provide appropriate support, especially through effective advising. We need to continue to enhance our advising system 1) by improving evaluation of faculty performance of this role, 2) by linking advising more closely to planning for graduate study and career—this means integrating the Advising Office, Career Center, and academic departments into a seamless network and (3) by considering ways for students to make meaning out of the entirety of their Dickinson experience. In regard to this last goal, we should charge a working group with developing a proposal for a system that facilitates all students' intentional thought about their personal, academic, career and civic goals. For example, a digital or electronic portfolio might assist with planning and provide a final, creative product that could be shared with prospective employers and/or graduate schools (students might particularly document experiential learning activities in academic and student life).
Objective 3. The senior year is a particularly important time for student reflection on what they have learned and what awaits. Moreover, many Dickinson seniors return from study abroad and feel a sense of disconnect with the campus. We need to make the senior year more meaningful as a time of reflection, for example, by revising the current senior week programming in favor of a comprehensive, year-long senior class program and establishing a senior club—a place complemented by interesting programs and discussions with faculty and staff where seniors can gather.
Strategic Goal B: Dickinson's vision of a useful education focuses on the development of a "21st century skill set." The college endorses all of the skills identified by the American Association of Colleges & Universities' VALUE project: inquiry and analysis, critical thinking, creativity, written and oral communication, reading, quantitative literacy, information literacy, teamwork, problem solving, and integrative and applied learning. Underlying these individual skills is the foundational ability to "learn how to learn," to apply the multifaceted capacities engendered by a liberal-arts education innovatively in a rapidly changing, complex world. While thus envisioning the skill set we desire for our students broadly, SP III cites the following for special attention either as elements of distinction for Dickinson and/or requiring particular enhancement:
Objective 1. Reflecting and anticipating the growing complexity and interdependence of the world in which we live, Dickinson emphasizes the ability of our students to synthesize knowledge, methodologies, and perspectives—to "connect the dots." We want students to see connections between courses, curriculum and co-curriculum, academic and residential experiences, and the campus and wider world. This commitment to connectivity works across the curriculum including in the traditional disciplines. It is especially reflected in the strength of our interdisciplinary offerings, including majors (many with dedicated staff and facilities). We should continue to enhance interdisciplinary endeavors, taking full advantage of the flexibility of our curriculum and openness of our faculty. Steps include enhanced advising for students in connecting elements of their programs, ongoing support (e.g., workload flexibility, development funds and rewards) to faculty for interdisciplinary endeavor and curricular innovation especially through certificate programs.
Objective 2. Dickinson is a recognized leader in developing global perspective. We must continue to build our program in this arena with particular attention to: introducing active learning (field study, research, independent study projects, internships) into study abroad, providing better re-entry experiences for those returning from off-campus study, exploring ways to apply technology to enhance our concept of a "global campus" and expanding our presence outside of Europe. This must proceed in conjunction with strong efforts in regard to domestic diversity (our new majors in Africana and Latin American, Latino & Caribbean Studies offer examples).We need also to review funding of and enrollment in abroad programs to ensure financial viability of our global education network.
Objective 3. The study of sustainability has become a distinctive element of our program, and we have already established a leadership position in this arena. We need to push this initiative by identifying Dickinson's unique approach to sustainability, defining more fully the place of sustainability in the curriculum and taking full advantage of sustainability's potential for enhancing active learning by tying curriculum to operations, service and the wider world. One definite focus for us must be melding our international and sustainability initiatives to create a global sustainability dimension unique among American colleges and universities. Most immediately, we must fully endow the Center for Sustainability Education.
Objective 4. Dickinson places a premium on active learning; across the curriculum, students are already asked to search out, question, re-conceive and create knowledge. We must enhance our efforts in this arena. Key elements include: student research and creative performance, independently and with faculty; internships; field study; and service learning. We need to advance the concept of the campus as a "living laboratory" for sustainability and continue integration of research and internships into study abroad. These goals will require us to exceed current limits of support, with high priority assigned to endowing student-faculty research, internships, pedagogical innovation and the Community Studies Center. Our active learning initiative should also place a premium on work connected to community engagement. For example, the already substantial coordination between Academic Affairs and Student Development in regard to service learning, internships and volunteerism can be more visible, more actively celebrated and better communicated to the campus and public.
Objective 5.Technological and information fluency is an area in which we must do more. Students come to us accustomed to using technology but lacking mastery and a full grasp of its potential and limits. Liberal-arts skills and values are precisely those that enable people to understand and steer the rapidly developing world of information over-abundance. We currently have a comprehensive writing initiative with defined learning goals for the curriculum, faculty training, a new student "writing associates" program, a multilingual writing center and good assessment tools. We need a comparable initiative on technology and new media. Efforts should include coordination and re-imagination of existing information literacy programs, articulation of clear goals for information technology and expansion of digital media and geospatial fluency programming. This must include enhancement of our digital resources and an emphasis on the library as the central focus of campus intellectual life. A top priority is the creation of an Academic Commons to draw together currently dispersed LIS resources and support outreach. Beyond facilities and equipment, the Commons must have staff who can track emerging academic technologies and translate their knowledge into applications for our program.
Strategic Goal C. Diversity. Strategic Plans I and II identified diversity as a critically important goal. While continuing strong efforts in recruitment, hiring, and academic program, we need also to focus on deepening the dimension of diversity in the student life experience.
Demographic data and student surveys confirm that diversity may—beyond its obvious significance to any 21st century educational program—in some aspects distinguish Dickinson from regional peers. In the 2010 senior survey, for example, our graduates reported an enhanced ability to relate to people of different races beyond that of our comparison institutions. Still, many graduating seniors report "no change" or "weaker" skills related to diversity. It remains relatively easy for students to avoid sustained interaction with people from diverse backgrounds and with diverse ideas and perspectives, particularly outside the classroom. Housing options, dining hall culture and strong student identification with clubs, teams, and fraternities and sororities often prompt students to find and maintain an identity with a homogenous campus sub-community.
Objective 1. We need to extend and deepen student life programming around diversity, reducing our reliance on one-time programs as a framework for diversity education beyond the classroom in favor of more sustained efforts. For example, we must develop a residentially based peer education program with clearly articulated outcomes as part of a substantive first-year residential program. More broadly, resident advisors, orientation advisors, club and organization officers and athletic team captains are all cohorts of student leaders who represent the college and have significant social influence over peers. We should provide these students with training to develop leadership and understanding around issues of diversity and privilege to in turn positively influence and educate other students.
Objective 2. Building a supportive and inclusive community characterized by respect, equality and accountability is a priority. This goal requires both strategies to promote a pluralistic, integrative and accepting campus culture and to address what counteracts such a culture. In building such a community, we will extend full participation in campus life to individuals and organizations which embrace our community standards and values. So, for example, we should expand services and support for LGBTQ students, and enhance campus education to foster a more inclusive and safe environment for individuals. Or, in another area of diversity, we need to address facilities shortcomings in spaces that support students' spiritual and religious faith expression from a variety of traditions. At the same time, we should refuse participation to organizations that do not embrace our Community Standards (Code of Conduct). And we must formulate and disseminate a bias incident response protocol to our campus as a tangible representation of our commitment to address intolerance.
Objective 3. It is vitally important that students experience meaningful opportunities to learn from sustained interaction with people from diverse backgrounds and with diverse experiences and perspectives. In particular, we should evaluate the current special interest/theme housing options to make sure that our desires to support group interests are not at the expense of a residential experience in which students are, without exception, interacting with and learning from the rich diversity of the student body.
Strategic Goal D: Students themselves are a valuable resource for enhancing the Dickinson educational experience. We need to take full advantage of our students' abilities to contribute to their peers' learning process. This deepens their own education and expands the college's human resources.
Objective 1. We need to expand student activity as mentors. Initiatives should include continued experimentation with upper-class teaching assistants and writing associates in first-year seminars, heightened activity by academic majors' committees and advisory groups, expanded networks of peer advisors in offices such as Advising and the Career Center, enhanced involvement of students returning from off-campus as mentors on study abroad and peer advising among international students. In student life, there are strong possibilities for involving students more actively in mentoring. We must continue to develop leadership abilities among students in clubs and other activities and more systematically involve upper-class students as mentors in residential life.
Objective 2. We must make more work-study experiences meaningful on the models of Clarke Forum staffers, Trout Gallery interns, student farmers and ALLARM workers.
Strategic Goal E: Enhance the Residential Experience. The residential experience exerts a powerful influence on students' growth and development. The opportunities and expectations associated with the residential experience can significantly contribute to or detract from students spending their time in educationally purposeful activity. Dickinson must articulate and implement an improved, comprehensive vision for residential experience—one that includes the ways buildings are designed, the ways in which students are housed and the ways in which program facilitates learning and dialogue.
Objective 1. Create a comprehensive framework for residential life that supports personal and academic success and fosters leadership and civic development by providing opportunities for students to create, manage and sustain a community for learning. We must fully implement a first-year residential "neighborhood" program to create a laboratory of engagement in community and civic life. Specific components include: residentially-based leadership councils to provide students with opportunities for self-governance, such as developing guidelines for productive community living and solving concerns; a residentially-based system of peer-review and accountability for behaviors disruptive to community; safety councils (modeled on neighborhood "block-watches") to work with Public Safety in oversight of residences; partnerships with Carlisle agencies for reciprocal benefit and mutual learning; program councils with tools and resources to meet social, cultural, academic and recreational needs of each neighborhood through event planning; and advisory boards that add staff and faculty guidance.
Objective 2. SP I endorsed a "ladder of responsibility" as a residential program philosophy. In this model, students move to progressively more independent housing options as they rise in class year. An unanticipated outcome of this sequential model appears to be significant stratification of class years on campus. Cross-class friendships do not easily develop. The independent living so coveted by seniors has perhaps helped their individual development, but it has reduced their campus influence as engaged citizens who lend maturity and perspective to younger students and provide stewardship of the campus as a whole. Also, the "ladder" philosophy provided a framework for housing but not for education and community development within the residence halls. We need to complement the "ladder of responsibility" with a "network of responsibility." While our students will continue to be housed in residences appropriate to their stage of learning, the "network of responsibility" adds an expectation for them to improve the experiences of others around them, and to enhance the college generally.
To move forward in establishing such a network we need to: a) implement the first-year neighborhood program, b) establish a programming partnership between first-year neighborhoods and residence halls typically occupied by sophomores in order to extend the neighborhood concept, c) develop a residentially based series of programs for sophomores with a focus on leadership and career/internship planning that is facilitated by seniors through a senior house model, and c) permit interested sophomores the opportunity to "block book" into areas based on academic or theme interests that enrich their residential community and engage first years in partner building. Overall, we must explore longer term integration of first years and sophomores in common foundational housing arrangements.
In regard to upper-class students, we need to balance legitimate needs for independence that juniors and seniors feel with a responsibility for them to impart their guidance and experience to others for the improvement of campus culture. Key objectives include (a) taking advantage of juniors who remain in Carlisle by selecting and training them to provide leadership in two elements of the first-year experience: the orientation common reading (selection and facilitation) and the community service engagement initiative and (b) creating a senior "house" program by refurbishing the college's "grand" houses to provide desirable space (singles and good social space) for seniors. Residency would carry cross-class responsibility (with training) to guide and mentor small cohorts of sophomore students, who are often overlooked in college programming.
Overall, the network of responsibility includes a strong emphasis on students as mentors—sophomores, juniors and seniors all reaching to those coming behind them. Yet there are other sources of important mentoring in residential life. We have at Dickinson a significant and under-tapped resource for our students: more than 60 employees who are also alumni of the college. We should develop a program linking these alumni to residence hall floors to provide new students with an administrative resource/adult presence for questions and concerns about navigating Dickinson and for exposing students to role models for whom Dickinson is a defining aspect of their personal and professional lives.
Objective 3. A strong residential program depends on a foundation of quality and equitable housing. Despite projects including renovations in the Quads and Morgan Hall and the construction of the "Tree House," we have not paid adequate attention to residence halls. Many of our facilities have significant deferred maintenance needs and are overcrowded, leading to difficulties in student culture and experience. For example, the need for beds has eroded common rooms and lounges in the residence halls—elements essential for community life to form. Residence halls are of widely varying quality with resulting painful inequity in housing options, and they lack sufficient spaces for study. In order to resolve these fundamental shortcomings we must:
Strategic Goal F: We must take what might be called a "campus ecology" approach to create an overall campus culture of mutual support and respect. Our goal is to improve the learning and living environment at Dickinson by encouraging safe, healthy and positive norms for behavior by individuals and organizations. SP III envisions the following steps in the next five years:
Objective 1. Our current dining facilities do not meet our goals for campus culture. We must redesign the dining hall to promote a more mature, inclusive and respectful form of campus life. Redesign will facilitate program initiatives, such as potential enhancement of faculty and family presence.
Objective 2. The impact of Greek organizations on campus culture has been a persistent point of dispute at Dickinson and elsewhere. We should commission an objective external study to help us determine what role fraternities and sororities should have in our 21st-century liberal-arts college. Our intent is to move beyond anecdotal information in addressing key questions. Does the presence of Greek organizations detract from or enhance recruitment and retention? How do fraternities and sororities affect the academic climate at the college? What contributions do they make to our student development effort? Are there other forms of residential and social life that better prepare our students for the world before them? For decades the college has been ambivalent about Greek organizations. We should use the opportunity of a study to decide whether Greek Life is or is not part of our 21st-century ambition and, if so, how?
Objective 3. We need to address behaviors that are clearly destructive to our goals for our community. Steps include: 1) completing initiatives to reduce sexual assault such as implementing a peer educator program and introducing a required module on sexual assault as part of the pre-college education expected of all students, 2) implementing an education/intervention program (drawing on our new hazing policy), particularly for student populations known to be at greatest risk and 3) translating findings of a current research study on campus alcohol use into a comprehensive plan for improving the campus climate around alcohol—this plan to address social norms, risk management and education, assessment and interventions related to student conduct, and environmental support/management.
Objective 4. With the arrival of a new Director of the Counseling Center, we must draft a strategic plan that will expand the focus of the counseling center beyond therapy and crisis intervention, to include outreach, education, greater emphasis on developmental concerns, an orientation toward positive psychology and helping students bolster their resilience in the face of stress and other difficulties.
Objective 5. Many issues of campus life lend themselves to collaborative research endeavors between faculty and staff. We should enhance these opportunities, which create positive benefit to faculty in advancing their scholarship and to staff who reap the advantage of insights gleaned for policy and program improvement.
Strategic Goal G: An integral part of Dickinson's mission is to prepare our students for leadership. We need a cohesive leadership development program that enhances students' talents, helps them take responsibility for their environment, and maximizes opportunities for them to be engaged in complex problem solving for campus benefit, thereby enhancing their self-perception as stewards of the college:
Dickinson has a long-standing tradition of involving students in the leadership work of the college. Students sit on all-college governance committees and have held major responsibilities for managing residence halls, coordinating orientation, and guiding other initiatives. We need to expand such opportunities and also address obstacles on campus to effective leadership development. For example, recent cohorts of graduating seniors report that among the skills least well developed while at Dickinson were those associated with functioning effectively as a member of a team. Our students value activity but anecdotal impressions from staff members who work with student leaders suggest that for many being busy in multiple activities trumps the deep and difficult work that is often associated with doing something well. In sum, we need to significantly enhance the opportunities and expectations for students to learn and demonstrate leadership for the campus good.
Objective 1: Develop new opportunities for student engagement and leadership. These include roles within the first year "neighborhood" residential program; participation in advisory boards sponsored by each department within the Division of Student Development—these boards will parallel the majors in academic departments; leadership in comprehensive review and evaluation processes for fraternity and sorority chapters; management of thematic/special interest housing options; and engagement in a new peer conduct review board and in a new men's program for early intervention in conduct issues as part of our student disciplinary process.
Objective 2. We must expand leadership education for all club and organization officers, establishing a student advisory board for consultation and program development support. Non-traditional forms of educational outreach, such as social media and electronic/digital resources accessible by any student, can be used to reach a wider audience. As part of this effort, we should develop a plan to continue the very successful LeaderShape Institute and also develop a program whereby retired members of our local Carlisle community with significant leadership experiences connect with emerging student leaders to provide guidance, networking and opportunities for students to acquire valuable lessons.
Strategic Goal H: We must enhance students' sense of community and connection to Dickinson.
A sense of belonging and community can powerfully anchor a students' experience, improve retention, and create a lifelong connection to Dickinson. Anecdotal and survey information reveals that this is an area where we must improve. We have heard from students through focus groups and on institutional research surveys that Dickinson lacks a fully vibrant sense of "community" on campus, particularly when compared to peer and aspirant institutions. Building a meaningful sense of community and social engagement that reinforces academics is complex work, and we may not have adequately invested time and resources in this direction. Many of the proposals offered in SP III, such as enhancing the dining hall or more effective senior year programming, will help us address this issue. Nonetheless, we need to create a special ad hoc group to investigate and recommend ways to enhance our students' affiliation with Dickinson as a source of support, meaning and affection.

Former champion Ken Norton dies
06:45, Sep 19 2013
Former heavyweight champion Ken Norton, who defeated Muhammad Ali in 1973, has died at the age of 70.
Norton passed away in a care facility on Wednesday in Arizona after suffering congestive heart failure, his close friend and former manager Patrick Tenore has confirmed.
Norton had been in poor health for several years and will be remembered for breaking Ali's jaw in their first of three fights in 1973, in which he went on to beat him in a split decision.
Ali narrowly won the second non-title fight encounter by a split decision six months later before he claimed a second victory over Norton on September 28, 1976, at the Yankee Stadium in New York to retain his heavyweight title.
Tenore told Press Association Sport: "It was early this (Wednesday) afternoon. Ken got congestive heart failure and passed away.
Story continues
"He was recovering from a stroke a year ago. To my shock his wife called me said he had passed away.
"He was a fighter. He fought a tough battle and we thought he was out of the woods.
"He was a warm and generous man. He was a champion and a fighter and bright-eyed and anxious to see the next day and a dear friend of 20 years.
"Everyone will miss him. He never said a bad word about anyone."
Norton won the WBC heavyweight championship in 1977 when Leonard Spinks chose not to fight him, before he lost the title to Larry Holmes in a very close split decision in June the following year.
Norton finished with a record of 42-7-1 and 33 knockouts.
Following his boxing career, Norton made several film and television appearances before he suffered a near-fatal crash in 1986 when his car veered off the on-ramp to the Santa Monica Freeway in Los Angeles.
Despite being struck with ill health in later life, Tenore says Norton never blamed this on his professional boxing career, which began with a win over Grady Brazell in 1967 and ended with defeat against Gerry Cooney at Madison Square Garden in 1981.
"Ken Norton never blamed anyone for anything. He never had a bad word about boxing or any of his opponents. This is a man you have never heard say an ill word about anybody," Tenore said.
"I used to tease him about his fights and say: 'You fought Ali three times and people joke and say you won the first one and Don King won the other two.' He said: 'No, Patrick, no. I was just beaten.'
"He never begrudged Mr Ali ever about winning those fights. He never begrudged boxing. He did have a speech impediment - in the 1980s his car went over a cliff in Los Angeles and a little girl caught it in the corner of her eye and called it in. He was in a coma for a year and he developed a speech impediment.
"I am travelling with him years after and people said: 'He's talking like he's punch-drunk.' I said: 'No, he's not punch-drunk. That was from an accident."
Tenore also believes Norton's boxing style will be remembered for pushing Ali all the way in their three fights.
He added: "It did take Muhammed Ali by surprised but he (Norton) was very focused and a very tenacious and a great fighter.
"He was a very religious gentleman who was always kind to everyone."
Reigning WBA super middleweight champion Andre Ward took to Twitter to express his condolences following Norton's death. He tweeted: "Just heard about Ken Norton passing. Met him last year in the Bay Area. Great champion & great man."
George Foreman, a former two-time heavyweight champion, said on Twitter: "They called us all handsome. Muhammad they called pretty. But The fairest of them all Ken Norton."
The World Boxing Council said: "The #WBC regrets the passing away of our former champion Ken Norton. May he rest in peace".

Target has reached a deal to carry Amazon's Kindle e-reader in its retail stores nationwide beginning Sunday, according to the companies.
Target, based in Minneapolis, Minn., will become the first brick-and-mortar retailer to carry the Kindle, according to Mark Schindele, senior vice president of Target.
"Our guest's response to Kindle has been overwhelmingly positive," Schindele said in a statement. "We are thrilled to bring guests nationwide this incredibly light, portable, easy-to-read product that allows them to get all the news and books they want."
The Kindle retails for $259 and can hold more than 1,500 books. It was introduced in November 2007 by Amazon and lets users download and read millions of books, magazines, newspapers and other documents on a high-resolution electronic paper display.
It's been reported that up to three million Kindles have been sold and Amazon now has competition in the space from Barnes & Noble (the Nook), Sony (Reader) and Apple [iPad]. Best Buy has each of these products, while Target has the Sony Reader.

Candy bars, maple cream topping and chocolate syrup? Brownie mix jump-starts dessert with these indulgent toppers.

Chocolate sundae syrup is slightly thicker than regular chocolate syrup, so it clings better to the top of the brownies. Look for it in your supermarket next to the other ice-cream toppings. If sundae syrup is unavailable, the regular variety will work just fine.
Another fun garnish for these maple-flavored squares are the little maple sugar candies shaped like maple leaves. Look for them in specialty candy shops.

Value Pricing Pilot ProgramProgram AnnouncementsGuidebook for State, Regional, and Local Governments on Addressing Potential Equity Impacts of Road PricingThis Guidebook for State, Regional, and Local Governments on Addressing Potential Equity Impacts of Road Pricing is designed to assist transportation agencies to better assess and mitigate perceived and potential equity impacts of road pricing projects on local communities, commuters, and system users. Priced Managed Lane GuideThe Priced Managed Lane Guide is intended to be a comprehensive source of collective experience gained from priced managed lanes implemented in the United States through 2012. The Guide presents a wide range of information on priced managed lanes. The purpose of this guide is to assist transportation professionals as they consider, plan, and implement priced managed lanes projects. The Priced Managed Lane Guide also updates the Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA) 2003 Guide for HOT Lane Development. Webinar SeriesThe Overcoming the Challenges of Congestion Pricing webinar series is aimed at state and local agencies; decision-makers/political leaders who want to better understand the benefits of congestion pricing; metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs); and others who just want to learn more about congestion pricing strategies. Learn more and register for upcoming webinars… Other AnnouncementsVPP Quarterly Report (January - March 2013) - Each quarter, projects authorized under the Value Pricing Pilot Program are updated to provide the most current VPP program information on active projects being studied as well as projects that have been implemented. Effective Approaches for Advancing Congestion Pricing in a Metropolitan Region (HTML, PDF 1.7MB) - This primer is intended to raise awareness among staff at MPOs and their partner agencies about the potential role of congestion pricing in supporting regional goals as well as the most effective approaches for advancing congestion pricing strategies in a region. The Value Pricing Pilot (VPP) program, initially authorized in the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA) as the Congestion Pricing Pilot Program, and most recently renewed with the passage of the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU), encourages implementation and evaluation of value pricing pilot projects to manage congestion on highways through tolling and other pricing mechanisms. This is the only program that provides funding to support studies and implementation aspects of a tolling or pricing project. The program is limited to 15 slots (which FHWA has reserved for "states") of which only one vacancy remains. Each state can have multiple projects. SAFETEA-LU provides a total of $59 million for fiscal years (FY) 2005-2009 for the VPP program. $11 million was authorized for FY 2005 and $12 million was authorized for each of FYs 2006 through 2009. Of the amounts made available to carry out the program, $3 million will be set-aside in each of the fiscal years 2006 through 2009 for value pricing projects that do not involve highway tolls. Funds available for the VPP program can be used to support pre-implementation study activities and to pay for implementation costs of value pricing projects. With the extensions of SAFETEA-LU after September 30, 2009, the VPPP continues to be available to States as a way to gain tolling authority, and FHWA continues to promote Its application and use.

Finals are here. Which means that, aside from a few, fleeting moments of sleep, my bed has looked a lot like this the past few days…
But a girl can really only take so much forced reading, especially when it's about the different pathways Asian economies have taken to enter the global trading market.
So when my eyes glaze completely over and all those tiny letters are one big fuzzy mess, I find myself here.
Because truly, there is no place to relax quite like Barnes&Nobles. I buy a Starbucks drink… I wander the aisles… I eventually load my arms up with as many magazines as they can handle and melt into one of the comfy chairs in the corner.
For some reason it feels like reading the books for free is against the rules, but magazines…I'll go through those just as I please
Truth be told, I've never left a bookstore empty-handed and saw no reason why today should be any different.
E L James' Fifty Shades of Grey is a book I was wanting to read for a little while now. So when reader Kelsneeze requested that I read and review it, it was that last little push I needed. I am now officially one book the richer.
All I've read is the back cover and I'm already hooked! I have a sneaking suspicion that my nose will find itself between those pages more than I planned this weekend.
And because I wouldn't be me if I didn't…I came home with these beauties as well.
Anyone read this book? What did you think? No spoilers please!


text: Home World Ethiopian Journalist Gets 18 Years in Prison Eskinder Nega received a sentence that spared his life but could spell death for press freedom. By: Charlayne Hunter-Gault Posted: July 23 2012 3:14 PM 0 YouTube (The Root) -- It could be said that the Ethiopian journalist Eskinder Nega dodged a bullet when he was sentenced to only 18 years in prison. After all, the charge of terrorism against him could have brought a death sentence or life in prison, as was the case with 23 other defendants -- journalists, as well as opposition leaders, charged under Ethiopia's draconian and vague anti-terrorism law. An opposition leader, was, in fact, sentenced to life, while others, having fled the country earlier, were sentenced to various terms in absentia. But it can't really be said that Nega dodged a bullet, because the 18-year sentence is really a death sentence -- in effect for his work and for freedom of speech in Ethiopia. For that was Nega's crime: telling truth to power. But the Ethiopian powers that be see that as being a traitor, given that Nega and the others were charged with being "spies for foreign forces," a not-so-subtle reference to alleged links to the Ginbot 7, a banned opposition group based in the U.S. But when I was in Ethiopia recently to plead for the release of Nega and the other journalists (as part of a team from the Committee to Protect Journalists, on whose board I serve; and the African Media Initiative, which I co-chair), Nega sent word to us via his wife, Serkalem Fasil, that in no way was he connected with Ginbot 7 or any so-called terrorist group. The case against Nega revolved around a grainy video showing him speaking at a town hall meeting, wondering if an Arab Spring-type uprising could ever happen in Ethiopia. The video is now available on YouTube. But clearly Nega has been on the government's hit list for some time. He has been arrested more than eight times during the two-decade tenure of Prime Minister Meles Zenawi, once serving a year and a half, along with his then-pregnant wife, who gave birth in prison. Their son survived the lack of prenatal care received by his mother, but the newspaper that his parents owned and produced did not. After the newspaper closed when they went to prison in 2006, and since Nega's earlier release, Nega had been communicating stories via a blog about government corruption and other official misdeeds, including the misuse of the terrorism law. What is so tragic about the course that the Ethiopian government is pursuing with this terrorism law is that it undermines the moral authority achieved when Ethiopia held elections after the murderous dictator Haile Mengistu Mariam was forced to flee to exile in Zimbabwe in 1991. Mengistu had waged a bloody war against the Ethiopian People's Revolutionary Democratic Front, killing, by some estimates, more than a million Ethiopians between 1975 and 1978. Today the EPRDF remains the predominant political party in Ethiopia by a wide margin. In 2010 it and affiliated parties won 545 of 547 seats in Parliament, giving it a fourth consecutive five-year term -- affirmed by some observers, questioned and/or criticized by others. Still, under the EPRDF, a constitution was created that included the right to freedom of speech. But in a chilling scenario that is starting to look in some ways like the era of Mengistu, the government passed an anti-terrorism law in 2009 that supersedes the constitutional guarantees and leaves little doubt that it is being used to silence dissent. The U.S. government, among others, has criticized the law as well as the sentences handed down most recently: "The arrest of journalists has a chilling effect on the media and on the right to freedom of expression. We have made clear in our ongoing human rights dialogue with the Ethiopian government that freedom of expression and freedom of the media are fundamental elements of a democratic society."

Texas has been aware of our little secret for a bit. And now the WHOLE COUNTRY knows what big suckers we are. Yippee!
This comes by way of the venerable New York Times, in a story about ridiculous "non-teacher" salaries. We made the opening paragraph!!!!!!
Beaumont Independent School District is the 64th largest in Texas. It is also the home of the state's highest-paid public school administrator. Superintendent Carrol A. Thomas takes home $ $346,778 annually — a fact that could soon put an uncomfortable spotlight on the community.
Geesh, when you say it like that it makes us sound downright retarded.
And they're not even counting his $1,000/month Maserati allowance.
That spotlight feels so good!
- Goodbye, Texas.
- Daily mugshot.
- The Texas Public Policy Foundation takes on the Butch hotel.
- BAYOU album of the day.
- Alabama business is versatile.
- And Texans complain that they're overtaxed. HA!

Fifty Ways to Stay With Your Lover
July 31st, 2012 | Posted in S.E.X.
I don't know about you, but I get bored with doing the same things over and over. Take food. I get on "food kicks" where I love, love, love, eating a particular food. And then- I don't. Currently it's Caprese Salad for me. It's the same with sex. If you have a long term partner, chances are you have gotten into a sex routine with each other. You know what works. You do it. Over and over….I'm getting bored just thinking about it! So below are 50 ways to get things exciting again:
1. Try having sex at a different time of day than usual.
2. Have sex on the kitchen counter.
3. Take a hike in the woods and have sex up against a tree.
4. Let your partner blindfold you and tittilate your senses with items found around the house.
5. Have sex every day for a week- in increases testosterone, which increases libido in both men and women.
6. If your partner is a man, make out with him a lot. You will get more testosterone just from his saliva.
7. Go sex toy shopping together.
8. Go lingerie shopping together.
9. While you're at it, go lingerie shopping at Victoria's Secret and secretly sneak your partner into the dressing room- you know, the big one with the couch, and get a little frisky on the couch!
10. Tie your partner up (with permission) and have your way with him (0r her).
11. Change roles next time.
12. Share you innermost fantasies.
13. Make them come true.
14. Watch a sexy movie together. (Nine and a Half Weeks, for example)
15. Find out about some unusual kind of orgasm (like the lip orgasm, for example) and practice having one.
16. Have sex on the bathroom counter.
17. Show up at his/her work, close the door, and do something strictly forbidden.
18. Go to the strip club together and get a lap dance or seven!
19. Go to the drive in movies and get hot and heavy in the car like they used to do on Happy Days.
20. Go out dancing together. It's a very sensual thing to do.
21. Drive separate cars to a public place, pretend you're just meeting for the first time, and do outlandish things.
22. Dress up and role play your favoriety fantasy.
23. Cook dinner for your partner wearing nothing but and apron.
24. Go to a nearby hotel. It's more fun to do it anywhere but your own bed.
25. Go skinny dipping together.
26. Go to the movies, sit in the back row, and grope each other in the dark.
27. Play one of those childhood games- leapfrog comes to mind!
28. Find out how many foods in your fridge or freezer taste good on your parner's body.

Julia at Rest
A cabin on Mount Desert Island served as Julia Child's home away from home.
- By: Kathleen Fleury
Photo by Paul Child. Schlesinger Library, Radcliffe Institute, Harvard University.
When Julia McWilliams first came to Maine one summer after World War II it was to meet the family of her then boyfriend Paul Child. The Childs resided in a partially constructed rustic cabin on the quiet side of Mount Desert Island. There was no indoor plumbing. No electricity. Only the most rudimentary of kitchens.
But that didn't bother Pasadena native Julia McWilliams — because Julia McWilliams barely knew how to fry an egg.
On that trip to Maine, the woman who was to become the most famous cook of her time didn't learn to use a whisk — but she did learn to wield a hammer and saw.
"We were still in the process of building that log cabin," recalls Erica Prud'homme, the daughter of Paul Child's twin brother Charles. Then a teenager, Prud'homme remembers that Julia "pitched right in. She learned how to use a saw and an axe. And she helped strip trees that we then shaped to make the log cabin. She was enthusiastic about everything, and she got right into it."
Paul and Julia had met in Ceylon (now Sri Lanka), where they had both worked for the Office of Strategic Services. According to Prud'homme, the visit to Maine "was a meet the family, everyone looking at everyone" kind of trip. Luckily for French food lovers everywhere, it went well.
"We adored her immediately," says Prud'homme. "She adored the Child family, too. Then she went back to her family in California, and learned how to make coffee, fry an egg, do all those things that wives were supposed to do."
Julia McWilliams became Julia Child on September 1, 1946. But it would take fifteen years for her masterpiece, Mastering the Art of French Cooking, to be published. In the meantime, Julia attended Le Cordon Bleu cooking school in Paris, where she lived with her husband who was stationed on a diplomatic assignment. Soon Julia became an avid cook and began teaching cooking classes and working on the manuscript of the revolutionary cookbook with co-authors Louisette Bertholle and Simone Beck.
All the while, their small family compound in Maine held a very special place in their hearts — they visited for weeks at a time in the summer when their schedule permitted. When it didn't, regular correspondence to the family on Mount Desert Island had to suffice.
One such letter written by Julia on August 3, 1949, from Paris and sent to "Dearest Les Childes" reads: "Really we think of you all up there in with the greatest imaginable envy; and how you can even BE THERE WITHOUT US, how can you bear it. We are naturally bursting to know just exactly how every single detail of everything is . . . How sad, too, not to have nice old Paulo, I can't imagine Maine without him. We read in the papers that your heat spell has broken out there on the East Coast and there were heavy rains Saturday."
Another letter sent from Paul to his family a few weeks later references a piece of balsam fir that had been mailed from MDI to the couple in Paris: "The balsam . . . was as fresh as a young colt — only the very tips of the needles were brown, but it smelled (still does) of the forest + the wind + the fog + the moss. I could damn near hear the bell tolling off the point — a real wild odor in this old European town."
Maine was the place where Paul and Julia came to be with family, to enjoy the outdoors, and to rest. Prud'homme describes the state's allure as a "gravitational pull for and everybody else. She loved the place. She loved being there."
While in Maine the couple would fish on the wharf at Bass Harbor, take hikes on the island's winding paths and carriage trails, go for boat rides and sails, and take in movies at the Southwest Harbor cinema. Brian Worcester, whose father bought Sawyer's Market in Southwest Harbor in 1959, recalls that "she used to come in on a regular basis," up until the mid-nineties. "I can remember my dad preparing lamb legs for her and various other things. Julia being Julia, if you didn't see her in the store, you knew she was there if you heard her speak."
Of course, Julia also enjoyed the bounty of the abundant local seafood. "She loved lobsters, and all the fresh fish," says Prud'homme. "My parents always had a big vegetable garden. She got into that. And she loved going fishing — she'd go out in a little dinghy and fish for mackerel and flounder." This exposure influenced her cooking, says Julia's longtime editor from Knopf, Judith Jones. "She draws on it quite a bit in later books . . . in headnotes for lobster and shrimps and the way to cook them," says Jones, who reiterates that Maine and
everything it represented "was a very important part of their life."
And her death. In 2004, when Julia passed away at the age of ninety-one, some of her ashes were spread near the family cabin on Mount Desert Island, the very cabin that her hands had helped construct more than half a century before.

They show the cumulative totals for new-business wins during the year, but a look back at previous weeks will give a snapshot of how agencies were doing up to that point in the year.
