Yesterday we arrived in New York City! We are celebrating that we've been together for three years. I had a little surprise for her at breakfast this morning. To celebrate our relationship, I found and bought some matching couples necklaces. She loved it
I can't believe this is our first trip to New York City. We've only been here one day, and we're already taken aback by all the sites. Our agenda is full of what to see, what to do, where to go, and what to eat. The first thing Jenny wants to do, though, is experience the culture. What better way to do that is to hike around like we're in the wilderness. We like backpacking anyway, so we're going to explore the city and treat it like we're on safari. What better way to explore every little nook and cranny, right?
Jenny wants to check out a Broadway show and, honestly, a New York City experience wouldn't be the same without doing that and eating at The Palm. I also want to see what it's like to ride the subway. I don't care how pedestrian that sounds, it's something I've always wanted to try in this illustrious city. Jenny and I have plenty of maps on our smart phones, so I'm doubtful we'll get lost. The people out this way seem helpful, but we're still being just as careful as we would when approaching dangerous animals out in the jungle. We never know who are the hunters and whether or not if we are the prey.
Another item on our agenda is to visit where the World Trade Center stood. I know Jenny and I will both shed tears, take in the moments, trace our fingers along the names of the fallen, and take dozens of pictures. These are the types of moments and memories we want engrained in our history. We'll also be visiting the Statue of Liberty and the Empire State Building because, as tourists, we have to be caught in every single trapping The City has to offer. There's nothing wrong with that as far as I'm concerned. Besides, I love taking pictures of Jenny in front of this, that, or the other infamous structure or landmark. The walls of our Dallas apartment tell many pictorial tales of our journeys, and these photographs will be added to that collection.
Before we begin our journey, I'm struck by one thing, have you ever noticed how much gum is cemented on the sidewalks of New York City? It's an odd thing to notice, I know, but I did nonetheless. This morning we'll start our first trek through this glorious city. I can't wait to see what it looks like lit up at night. I've seen pictures, I've seen it in movies, and I've seen it on television . . . I know those images do not do it justice compared to in person. I can't wait to see the expression on Jenny's face. I'll have to remember to have my camera ready for that shot, too.
I first read about Maui in a traveler's magazine, and when I discovered that it had been voted by readers of that particular publication as the best island for nineteen consecutive years, it made it to the top of my list as the next destination. This time round, Jenny and I decided not to book a hotel- we are seasoned backpackers. We wanted to take every day as it came by and spend the nights where sunset would find us.
We have learned that we could save airfare by booking early for the mid October trip. We rarely use travel agencies for our travels just to spice things up. So we settled to begin our adventure at the Kipahulu campground in Haleakala National Park. We did not need permits here as would be the case with other campgrounds, and it was next to the ocean, in addition to the nearby hiking trails, swimming pools, and picnic areas with the pit latrines in a wild greenery lined with stunning waterfalls, a nice change of scenery from our landlocked Metroplex apartment.
To set the tempo, we began with exploring the Kipahulu Valley, taking dives in almost all of the 20 pools along the Palikea Stream in order to cool off. I thought that this was a low season, but guys are straddling this place in hordes, even though I was told the place is closed to the public. By afternoon, we were at the scenic Waimoku Falls, enjoying every bit of the hike through indigenous forest and taking snaps here and there.
The next day, I woke up early to prepare some sandwiches in readiness for the long ride to the highest peak on the island. I now understand why they refer to it as the "House of the Sun". We hit Hana Highway in our rented car, a most fascinating adventurous drive through a narrow winding one bumpy road that gave us a spectacular view of both the ocean and the lonely wild. I must warn you that car rentals would not be happy to know you took this route with their machine: It is a warning we received in advance.
I lost count of the number of bridges we had to cross, so narrow that the rare cars coming from opposite directions cannot cross at the same time. I am told these bridges have been used since 1910. From the guidebook we had, there should have been several waterfalls but I was bogged down by the signs of "No Trespassing" at the places we expected to have a peek and a snap.
On reaching Haleakala Visitor Center, about 9, 740 ft above sea level after driving most of the time at 5mph, we joined a group of other hikers towards the famous Haleakala Crater. The clouds were literally below us. We took the Sliding Sand Trails into the huge gap that seemed to swallow us with every step downwards. Jenny and I would have loved to stay inside for the night but, unfortunately, the three cabins were already fully booked for several days. We sat at the summit to watch the most amazing sunset I have ever seen.
On day three, we hit the coast to Molokoni Crater for scuba diving and snorkeling. This is not your usual underwater experience, as what we came to learn as the Back Wall dive gave us spectacular views of the turtles, different kinds of fish, and what I thought was a whale shark. There is plenty of marine life deep down there, and the manta rays in the evenings are just wonderful. On day four we headed to Ho'okipa Beach Park for a few hours of surfing against enormous swells.
I am happy we made some new friends. A special thanks to James and Melissa who let us crash at their place for a few nights in exchange for me helping James build a deck with the information we found on mahoganydecking.net. It was a nice project and the end result is amazing.
We also had an opportunity to give something back to the island community, as we finished our adventure by joining volunteers planting a trees, doing reef cleanups, and my favorite one, counting the humpback whales. Unfortunately I had a job to complete while we were there, so we did not have even half the experience that Maui has to offer. We will be back for a more elaborate adventure next year.
Recently, Jen and I travelled to San Francisco, California. It was a great trip that will remain etched in my mind. Here are some of the things we did in San Francisco.
Visited the Coit Tower
Every great city ought to have at least one iconic monument and spectacular sceneries. In this regard, San Francisco is one of the American cities that I am proud to have toured at least once in my lifetime. If I were to be told to do it, I would laud the architects of Coit Tower for having put up this elegant monument in the heart of the city. It resembles a fire-hose nozzle. We climbed to the top of this monument and we got panoramic views of the city.
Walking across the Golden Gate Bridge
Our trip to San Francisco gave us a good opportunity to visit Golden Gate Bridge, which is revered for being the world's most beautiful bridge. The 1.7 mile long bridge is a beloved part of the city's tourism; thanks to the fact that thousands of international and local visitors visit this bridge annually. Though we had an option to catch a bus, we decided to walk across the bridge with our backpacks. Since backpacking is part of us, it didn't take us long to cross the bridge. We also got spectacular views of the Pacific ocean.
Trekking along the Bay Area Ridge Trail
As a hiking lovers, we love hitting the trail. I was fascinated by the awesome hiking trails in San Francisco, Bay Area Ridge Trail being one of them. The 550-mile trail is in a class of its own. 338 miles are now open to members of the public. The trail led us to the far end of the Golden Gate. Along the way, we paused to have a view of the stunning Andy Goldsworthy sculpture Spire, sweeping panoramas of the Pacific Ocean and San Francisco National Cemetery's rolling hills.
Scuba diving and surfing in San Francisco Bay area
San Francisco Bay Area is arguably the best place to visit in San Francisco for those who love surfing and scuba diving like me. The water here is crystal clear and it is hence suitable for lush beautiful scuba diving. There are strong waves at the far end of the bay, hence making it a perfect place for surfing on a water boat. The bay also offers a variety of marine attractions, ranging from whale watching to exploring underground water caves. Every morning, Jenny and I would take a stroll along the beach and we were fascinated by the high number of seals we saw along the way. Seals are only one example of San Francisco's diverse local sea life.
Visit Union Square Park
This is an eclectic open space that is decorated with palm trees. It is a very funky stop over for locals and travelers alike. It is home to a variety of art installations such as the heart-shaped structures crafted by local artists. It is also a great shopping place thanks to the elegant shopping malls surrounding it from all sides.
The hardcore traveler that I am, I miss no opportunity of visiting any exciting place I hear or read about. I am so lucky that Jen shares my passion of going around the world and experiencing the most thrilling activities only makes things better! The Grand Canyon has always featured in my list of must-visit places; hence it goes without saying that we were more than excited when we finally set off for the trip!
The Grand Canyon Skywalk
Take it from an avid traveler who has been to places and witnessed many a wonders of the world – this part of our trip indeed was breathtaking to say the least. Located on the Hualapi Tribal Lands, the immensity and grandeur of this place was overwhelming. Neither I nor Jenny has a fear of heights, so the unique 'see-through' walkway overlooking the canyon was an incredible experience. An architectural and engineering marvel, this must not be missed no matter what it costs.
The West Rim
While we certainly like our adrenaline rushes, this place came as a welcome change. The landscape was serene, and it was only bettered by the fact that there not many people around. The Guano Point and the Eagle Point gave us some stunning canyon views, and thankfully, due to fewer crowds around, we could capture some beautiful shots.
We had a great hike through the Havasu Canyon- a mazelike canyon in the West Rim, filled with tall rock walls, cacti, and turquoise blue waterfalls. The 8-mile trek to the Supai Village is a must-stop; apart from the mesmerizing landscape, we treated ourselves to a mouthful in the village cafe.
You can also take a helicopter tour around the West Rim from Las Vegas that only takes three hours. It takes you over the Lake Mead, Hoover Dam, Fortification Hill (an extinct volcano) before you finally descend 3,500 feet into the Canyon in Hualapai Indian Territory.
The North Rim
Due to heavy snowfall in this region, the North Rim remains open only from mid-May to mid-October. Though the Grand Canyon National Park encompasses more than 1.2 million acres, we could satisfy our love for hiking with only a few trails that follow the rims and some more that penetrate into the canyon. The elevation of more than 10,000 feet from the beginning till the end is a treat for hiking-lovers for the challenges it poses! The one-hour mule ride along the rim was a novelty in itself which we thoroughly enjoyed.
The South Rim
A five hours drive from the North Rim, this place is open for visitors throughout the year. The Grand Canyon Village is the hub of all activities, providing tourists with lodges, a train depot, gift shops and viewing areas. We joined the Ranger Program that gave us interesting talks about the area's geology, the local flora and fauna, the native inhabitants and so on. Hiking is something that I and Jenny can never have enough of, and this place too, offered ample scope for the same, ranging from the flat Rim Trail to the steep Hermit's Trail.
A Final Word
The Grand Canyon was the perfect destination for us. We could make the most of our trip as we chose the best time of the year to visit the Grand Canyon- April. We were kind of sad to leave this spectacular place as we headed back home to Dallas, but I had some work to do and Jen can look for our next adventure.

Hello All, I am "between" clusters right now and have a need to test some new hardware and software with a Beowulf cluster. I have a window of opportunity opening in the last two weeks in May 2002. I am looking for a available cluster that has access to OC-3 minimum internet connection. (OC-192 would be perfect). We would be using a new device from Inkranetworks www.inkra.com that is a virtual service architecture platform (hw & sw). I haven't even tested the device, put inkra does have units deployed in beta testing and will work with me and the cluster owner to deliver, setup etc for the test. I have a software package for the cluster and node memory requirements may have some bearing on test. If you have a cluster that may be available please contact me directly at - tpmoline at LL.net -. I have not requested budgetary support for this effort so cost will be a factor. If you have questions specific to the Inkra device please refer those to Guy Werre, - gwerre at inkra.com - . Successful outcome would assist in a powerful positive impact on municipal network management for bundled digital services. thanks, tom_m

Watertown— The Wounded Warrior project has made it their mission to honor and empower wounded warriors. Wounded Warriors have been successfully reaching out to the community, helping injured military men and women with various needs.
Inspired by the WWP, the local Watertown Family YMCA has made an ongoing effort to show support and appreciation for military members serving our great nation. The Watertown YMCA supports active duty men and women who have sustained an injury or disability while serving in Iraq or Afghanistan. Executive Director, Steve Rowell of the local YMCA expressed how much YMCA enjoys helping wounded soldiers, "We love doing anything to give back to wounded soldiers and providing them with free membership is the least we can do."
Membership Director, Linda Alexander walks soldiers through the membership process and ensures that all necessary paperwork is turned in. "What prevents an easy transition is not having the right information and forms", explained Ms. Alexander. A wounded soldier should request a letter from their attending physician. There are approximately 10-15 wounded soldiers at the local Watertown, YMCA. According to Ms. Alexander, processing a soldier takes less than a day, as the YMCA prefers for wounded warriors to use the facilities as soon as possible.
Soldiers, who have sustained injuries or are now disabled as a result of operation Iraqi Freedom or Operation Enduring Freedom (OIF/OEF), can enjoy free membership to the YMCA. Proof of eligibility must be provided, which are the following:
1. Service member will provide a copy of Valid Military ID
2. A letter, from one of the following sources, stating that a YMCA membership would be beneficial in the treatment / recovery of the individual (Commander, Physician, Physical Therapist, Counselor, Psychologist or Psychiatrist).
Every 6 months, the YMCA would need to verify the above requirements. However, as long as disabled wounded warriors can provide the requirements, membership remains free. Currently, there is not a limit on how long wounded or disabled soldiers can partake in the free membership program. However, according to Ms. Alexander most soldiers PCS to other locations and usually only partake in the free membership program for a year. Not all YMCA locations offer free membership to wounded veterans who has served in Iraq or Afghanistan. Soldiers that are looking to partake in this program should consider the membership requirements and contact your local YMCA for more information.

The Natural Beauty Cabinet
admin | July 27, 2011Take a hard look at your beauty cabinet. You may not know it, but chances are you have products that use harmful ingredients, increasing your exposure to possible toxins and parabens that can possibly lead to health problems down the road. Deodorants, soaps, toothpaste, face wash, lotion… The list of products you use daily that can carry harmful ingredients goes on and on.
Take toothpaste, for example. Some are filled with synthetic colors, fragrances, preservatives, and artificial sweeteners. Do you really want toothpaste that may clean your teeth but also delivers harsh ingredients, polluting your body?
Get educated about your natural options and live a cleaner, healthier lifestyle! We love natural grooming and beauty options that leave us naturally fresh and clean. Here's how to revamp your daily grooming routine with natural products:
Toothpaste: Brighten your pearly whites with toothpaste free of harsh chemicals and preservatives, to limit your body's exposure to chemicals. There are a number of natural toothpastes in the market today that replace synthetic chemicals like sodium laurel sulfate (SLS) with natural abrasives like calcium carbonate. What's the plus side? No unnecessary side effects! Natural cleaning agents are less likely to irritate your gums and disrupt the natural order of moisture, acidity and other elements inside your mouth, which can lead to bad breath, cavities and gum infections.
Deodorant: Can a deodorant effectively work without aluminium compounds or chemical antiperspirants? Yes it can! Based on the traditional remedies of bicarbonate of soda, natural mineral salts, ammonia alum and similar compounds to eliminate odours, and natural herbs and fragrances such as rosemary, clove, sage, patchouli and lavendar, natural deodorants work just as well. These are a must have for the summers especially for those with weather and chemical related sensitivities.
Soaps: Beware of soap labels because unlike other skincare products, the FDA does not regulate soap labeling. Organic soaps are made from plant based natural hydrating ingredients like coconut milk and retain higher levels of glycerin making the soap more gentle and skin-friendly. One of the basic and most important advantages is that organically produced soaps do not contain chemicals that get absorbed into your bloodstream through your skin. Look for natural soaps that leave little residue.
Skincare: Enhance your skin's natural radiance with products that do not unleash harmful chemicals on you. Most fragrances used in skincare products are known to be carcinogenic and mineral oils, once applied, prevent the skin from "breathing", and alcohols dry out skin. Instead switch to natural products that leverage the hydrating properties of natural oils such as argan, jojoba, walnut and avocado. These natural oils will moisturize the skin and provide vitamins, which operate as antioxidants and eliminate those free radicals, which cause skin to age.

HP Thursday fired President and CEO Leo Apotheker less than a year after picking him to succeed Mark Hurd.
HP's board of directors appointed one of its own, Meg Whitman, to replace him. Whitman, the former president and CEO of eBay and an unsuccessful California gubernatorial candidate in 2010, joined the HP board earlier this year.
"We are fortunate to have someone of Meg Whitman's caliber and experience step up to lead HP," said Ray Lane, who Thursday moved from non-executive chairman to executive chairman of HP's board, in a statement. "We are at a critical moment and we need renewed leadership to successfully implement our strategy and take advantage of the market opportunities ahead. Meg is a technology visionary with a proven track record of execution. She is a strong communicator who is customer focused with deep leadership capabilities. Furthermore, as a member of HP's board of directors for the past eight months, Meg has a solid understanding of our products and markets."
Apotheker also resigned his seat on the board, the company said.
In particular, HP solution providers are displeased with the uncertainty created in August when HP unceremoniously disclosed that it is considering a sale or spin-off of its $42 billion Personal Systems Group, a revelation that partners say has put channel deals in jeopardy. Some are also disgruntled over HP's move to pull the much-ballyhooed HP TouchPad tablet from the market after just six weeks.
Some HP partners are downright giddy that Apotheker is no longer with HP.
"I am ecstatic," said Sam Haffar, president and co-CEO of Computex, one of HP's top enterprise partners and a CRN Tech Elite 250 solution provider based in Houston, Tex. "This guy was fired by SAP and was unemployed when HP hired him. [HP's board] should have done their due diligence. Now they get rid of him in less than a year. It should have happened sooner!"
Leigh Carpenter, director of strategic services for Nth Generation Computing, a San Diego-based HP partner, said Apotheker didn't really connect with the HP channel, despite making appearances at the major HP events. "For us, he seemed a lot less in-touch with partners [than his predecessor]," Carpenter said. While she couldn't put her finger on exactly what caused the disconnect, Carpenter said that "it just felt like Mark Hurd was more hands-on with partners."

How can I install flash player and mp3 plugins in Ubuntu?
I am a beginner to the Ubuntu world.
The easiest way is to install the package ubuntu-restricted-extras by clicking the button below: This will install a bunch of useful stuff, because it is a meta-package, like flash, MP3 capability, mscorefonts etc. Connect to the internet. Open the software center and search for ubuntu-restricted-extras and install it. You will have to accept some licences for non-free stuff. | ||||
First step read this from Ubuntu RestrictedFormats. Then go to ubuntuguide. This is for Maverick - there are different guides for older versions of Ubuntu. To install Flash search for 'Flash' in the Software Centre and install it or install the package: flashplugin-nonfree . | |||||
For Flash Player, try installing For the MP3 stuff, support to listen to MP3 media files should already be loaded into the system, as was my experience with 10.04 and 10.10. | |||
On every new install of Ubuntu I always use Medibuntu in addition to the restricted extras. | ||||

BOUNTIFUL – The Bountiful Lady Braves girls' basketball team picked up its second win in Region play Tuesday night after taking down East 50-43.
The win, Bountiful's third straight, was led by Kennedy Merrick's 23-point game as two other Lady Braves ended the game with 10-plus points each. Tiana Dougher added 12 and Jenny Skedros scored 10 as the Braves outscored the Leopards 34-26 in the second half.
Madison Roemer led East with 19 points in the loss.
Lady Vikings extend streak to six games
The Viewmont Lady Vikings girls' basketball team won its sixth straight game Tuesday night when it beat Hunter 55-45.
Caitlyn Larsen and Katie Toole, the Vikings' top two scorers this season, added to their season scoring totals by scoring 16 and 15 points, respectively, in the win. The duo also led the offense last Friday in a win over Granger, scoring 21 points each.
Davis winning streak snapped
The Lady Darts had a rough game against Weber Tuesday night, suffering a 43-38 loss that snapped a seven game winning streak dating back to mid-December.
With only Jessica Richardson scoring in double figures, the senior scored a team-high 14 points in the losing effort. Morgan Hartvigsen added nine points and Natalie Mecham scored six points in the loss.
The loss was preceded by a 47-38 win over Syracuse that saw Richardson finish with a double-double (10 points, 10 rebounds) and Mecham scoring 10 points.
Wildcats drop fifth straight
The losing streak for the Woods Cross girls' basketball team continued Tuesday night as the Lady Wildcats lost their fifth straight game, this time to Cyprus, 76-57.
Despite strong efforts by Aubree Riddle, Camille Horrocks and Eden Jacobsen, who each finished with 10-plus points in the game, the Wildcats were outscored in all four quarters.
Games this week
Davis will be at home Friday night, facing off against Layton in Region 1 action. Tipoff for that game is 5:15 p.m. In Region 2, the Lady Vikings will be at home as well, hosting the Kearns Cougars at 7 p.m.

61 annual national prayer breakfast once bigger getting even more media attention than present Obama.
Johns Hopkins neurosurgeon doctor Benjamin Carson giving his biblical interpretation of taxes and health care.
We spend a lot of money and health care twice as much per capita as anybody else in the world and yet not very efficient.
You make ten billion dollars you've put in a billion you make ten dollars you put in one course you gotta get rid of the look.
Now have some people say.
That's simple that's not because it doesn't hurt the guy who made ten billion dollars as much the guy -- -- ten.
Where does that say you have to hurt the guy he just put a billion dollars in the pot.
Was -- Harrison's speech inappropriate based on the location the timing former congressman Alan west trying to speeding sect.
Good evening are you doing Greta.
Very well and she may have noted that that deck -- -- those world famous neurosurgeon making those comments is caused somewhat of a controversy among some.
Because -- made at the prayer breakfast.
You -- -- your thoughts and answer.
Well I don't think it's -- cause any controversy whatsoever.
-- thought that we lived in America where you could have freedom of speech and I believe that the doctor gave his assessment.
Well some of the policies that involve his profession in the health care professional and also.
Talk about the culture of the and the relationship of government to the individual.
Now I think what has everyone upset.
Is that he violated the unwritten rule of be in an African American male and he criticize the policies of President Obama which I can so what understand haven't been on the other so out of a lot of attacks as well.
But if you go back to September 2012.
There was the chairman of the Congressional Black Caucus Emanuel Cleaver.
Who gave an incredible statement saying that if anyone elsewhere in the White House over the President Obama.
That there will be marching on the White House and that the President Obama knows that he he is given the deference that would not be given.
To a white president and we were talking about the incredible 14% unemployment rate.
In the black community.
And I think that we cannot continue to go on believing that all we can do is ask the president.
What his favorite color is and start and continue to have -- softball interviews.
We have to start talking about the policies of -- fail in this country and I think doctor Carson hat -- to him for.
Having that platform be able to a challenge those policies.
Think President Obama thought sitting -- Well I think he felt for the first time.
Someone his stood up to me because pretty much so he's been given a a free pass just recently we saw that sixty Minnesota -- So it has become rather up -- -- If you continue to reward this type of behavior in these type of failing policies without any type of challenge that comes from the media.
And -- the -- you when you see him going out about he continues to be placed in front of -- the fawning audience is that just clap and they become campaign rallies more than anything else.
So I believe it is time that we have to start standing up and challenge and the president.

It's offshore again on the South Coast this morning, and still looking good despite a drop in swell overnight . The Middleton - Goolwa stretch has clean surf around 2', but Waits or Parson's will be your best bet for a shortboard wave this morning. You'll need to get your skates on as a Southerly change is on the way, and may arrive as early as mid-morning. Northerly winds may get a bit gusty ahead of the change, and conditions will deteriorate off the back of it.

The development of the individual is an exciting process beginning with the rapid metamorphoses of cells at
conception and continuing through intricate changes of growth and aging. The study of development is also intriguing
because each of us, and everyone we care about, is constantly developing. Therefore, this course embraces
both scientific discoveries and personal insights.
The field of lifespan developmental psychology represents a relatively new approach to a longstanding interest in how
people change with age. This course will examine the pertinent theories about development and discuss the findings
from research, which reveal solutions, approaches, experimental and clinical evidence from measurement and testing.
This course is designed for you to learn about the best that the field has to offer regarding guidelines, approaches,
interpretations and solutions relative to the development of human potential across each phase of the lifespan.
And, as a result, this course will contribute to your gaining new knowledge, understanding and the discovery of
solutions to any current problems. Implications for application to everyday life will be drawn
from the exploration of theories, research, and discussion. With this in mind, the following objectives are set for
this course:
To develop and nurture a desire to learn more about development. This curiosity should
be demonstrated through an enthusiasm for exploring information and knowledge set forth in the textbook
as well as discovering and examining supplementary reading material and research studies.
To appreciate the complexities and subtleties of change across the life span,
to appreciate individual differences.
To become knowledgeable of the current research findings and guidelines about human
development which contributes to empowerment and individual growth and
To learn the basic theories, concepts, principles, approaches and recommended
strategies that comprise the body of knowledge about development.
To apply the knowledge gained to your professional and everyday life.
To enjoy the process of dialogue, exploration, inquiry, and learning in this course.
This course covers both segments of Psychology 231 and 232 (Lifespan Developmental Science) in one semester
instead of two. Therefore, this will be an intense course as the pace will be rapid.
The course will focus on an overview and history of the field of developmental psychology, the critical questions
and issues permeating the field, and the pertinent theories. It will provide an overview of development across the lifespan
and include discussions of conception and prenatal development, infants and toddlers, early and middle childhood,
adolescence, young and middle adulthood, and mature (or late) adulthood and the processes of aging. In addition,
explorations will be made of the final transitional period of dying and death.
Classes will meet at the regularly scheduled time. There will be 16 class sessions. A detailed class schedule is attached.
This course will use a combination of activities in the classroom including lecture, discussion, critiques of books
and periodicals, group work, cooperative and collaborative learning, public forums, formal debates, media
presentations, etc.
The time constraints on this course are such that your professor may not be able to lecture on
all aspects of your readings.
You will be held responsible for all material assigned in your text or
supplementary readings.
Students are expected to read the assigned chapter(s) and any assigned readings before class and come to
class prepared to participate. Individual students or groups of students may be asked to make special presentations
in class periodically.
This course allows you to learn and engage in course material in a variety of formats. Likewise, your graded assignments will include a combination of formats. These include a formal written examination, 3 book reports, several written reflection papers and participation in a formal symposium in oral and digital presentation format.
Below is a breakdown of your assignments.

Please allow 2 weeks for the grading and return of written products.
You may substitute the first exam with a creative portfolio or exhibit that demonstrates your learning in the areas assigned for examination. You must get prior permission from your professor to make a substitution and adhere to the requirements and guidelines. This replacement assignment must cover the chapters or areas to be covered during the examination period and adhere to the guidelines set forth for portfolio development.
Portfolio development
includes a collection of articles and objects that are examples of concepts, theories, and information learned during the semester. The portfolio collection will illustrate what you have learned and how what you include and discuss is connected to what you have learned. The portfolio can include articles, editorials, photographs, video clips, interviews, exhibits, etc. Each item, article or object included in your portfolio must have a reflective written narrative. The reflective narrative is a critical component of the portfolio. See the guidelines on the course website on portfolio development.
can include field observation in a school, classroom, or other educational or developmental setting such as a daycare center, nursery, preschool, kindergarten, alternative program, hospital, etc. You can also interview developmental psychologists, professionals or researchers. If you are currently working in a developmental setting, you can use your setting for research. Your field experience must be prefaced with a review of the related literature. This review will provide the background information necessary to prepare for the fieldwork and to develop your field research questions. Therefore, your background research should be conducted prior to your going into the field. If you are interested in fieldwork, you should request written guidelines from your professor on preparing for fieldwork, including negotiating entry, observation methods, interview methods, field questions, preparing reports and how to exit the field site.
At the end of the semester, you will be required as your final product to participate in a student symposium on development. In this symposium, you will be asked to summarize and make an assessment of what you have learned during the semester on development. You will be further required to develop a digital presentation of one or more aspects of development that you found intriguing and tell the class why. You will receive a set of guidelines to follow for this presentation. Presentations may be in teams, groups or individual. You will be graded during the presentation based on a set of criteria.
You can be as creative and imaginative as you wish to be during your presentation at the symposium. You can use videos, overheads, handouts, and other forms of media. Student presenters should consider this experience as participation in a formal conference where participants are coming to learn new information. Therefore, you should behave and conduct your presentation in a professional manner. Your topic and an abstract of your presentation/paper should be provided to the instructor the week before the forum to be included in the program for participants. Time allocations will be provided and usually are limited to 15-20 minutes, depending on the size of the class.
For this symposium, students in the class can invite the public, parents, other students and guests to attend.
One or more students will be asked to volunteer from the class to serve as Coordinator(s).
The Coordinator will be responsible for organizing and developing the program, advertising the forum to the campus and public, preparing and posting flyers around campus, coordinating the potluck reception.
Bonus Points are earned by students serving as coordinators.
Guidelines for Papers
It is required that you use the official
American Psychological Association (APA)
format for your written papers
and projects in this class. See the
Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association or the
Concise Rules of APA or the Online Style Manual.
The research paper must include citation of bibliographic
data sources - in the body of the paper and on a reference page at the end of the paper. It is advised that you begin
early in the semester learning the APA format as you will be heavily penalized for using any other form. You can
also go to the APA web site to get examples of how to cite data sources including sources from the Internet and how
to put a reference page together at:
On this page find the Frequently Asked Questions
(FAQs) section. You also can purchase online your own copy of:
Mastering APA Style for Students
Another critical formatting requirement is that
you must include subtitles in the body of your paper.
Please do not submit a running paper with no subtitles and no cited references included in the body of
the paper.
Please also
do not
title your reference page as
Works Cited;
but instead
Use only the APA format for writing your paper
. If you need more direction on this point, please make an
appointment to meet with me.
For this class, you are responsible for 4 products and therefore will have a total of 4 grades: 1 written exam or portfolio;
1 oral exam and presentation on 2 book chapters; 1 final paper or project or 1 formal debate and 1 total class project.
Your course grade will be every assignment is important.
It is important to make every grade. Missing any grade assignment can result 59 & Below=F.
Students are expected to attend all class sessions except in cases of emergency (e.g., illness, death in the family),
the advent of religious holidays - the observance of which requires restriction of daily activity), or when participating in
official college functions (e.g., field trips or other designated events).
In these cases, you are to inform the
prior to missing class as to the reason for your anticipated absence
In the case of absence
for special personal reasons other than those mentioned, it is your responsibility to confer with the
instructor about whether the absence is to be considered as excused. You will be penalized for an
excessive number of absences.
Attendance and participation will be factored into all grades. Points will be
deducted from the total grade for persons with poor class attendance.
Being on time for class also is important.
It is your responsibility to withdraw from the course before the designated withdrawal date.
Your instructor will not withdraw you and you will receive an F grade for non attendance.
You can receive a number of bonus points to be added to your final average at the end of the semester for your participation
in a variety of related class activities during the semester. Download the Student Performance Record from the course
website and keep up with your performance and points earned in this class.
1. Class Summaries
Students will be asked to volunteer (or randomly selected) to summarize the activities and discussion of
the previous class based on their notes, understanding or analysis. This summary takes place at the
beginning of each class. The assigned student will be responsible for providing their own thinking and
analysis of information covered in the previous class and to discuss how the material discussed can
be applied to everyday life.
Each student assigned to provide the summary should also be prepared to bring a one minute motivator
to class to energize your classmates. This one-minute motivator could be a poem, a game, a puzzle, some
physical activity, a song, a quotation or something innovative and creative from your imagination.
The beginning
of class is also a time that you may share with the class an article or study you have read related to the topic
of discussion.
2. Class Presentations
Students may be asked to make special presentations or share thinking or written assignments. All students
are required to make a brief presentation of their research paper/project to the class during the topical forums.
This is an opportunity for all of us to benefit from your research by sharing information, knowledge and scientific data.
3. Creating an Ideal Learning Environment
We are confident that you will continue to make every effort to help create a warm, friendly, courteous, respectful, and positive learning environment for all in the classroom. Please turn off cell phones and take your hat off when entering the classroom. Talking with classmates during class lectures and discussion will not be tolerated.
lease wait until the instructor indicates that the class has ended before closing books, gathering belongings, putting on coats, etc. This is disrespectful and disruptive to others.
Outside Assistance
Students are encouraged to use the many services offered by the college to assist and support your academic work. This includes the counseling center, the writing center, the tutoring center, among others. These services are available to you at no cost to provide assistance and support. Meetings may also be arranged with the instructor during office hours or by appointment.
Honor Code and Pledge Statement
Embodying the ideals of academic honesty, integrity and responsible citizenship is at the core of the foundation of all academic work and student conduct here at NVCC and most other colleges and universities. Enrollment at NVCC presupposes a commitment to the principles embodied in these codes and a respect for the tradition of integrity and honesty. Your participation in this course comes with my full expectation that your work will be completed in full observance and respect of the Honor Code. Academic dishonesty in any form is unacceptable and is a breach in academic integrity. However small, such dishonesty would be destructive to the life and work of the College. As a result, the following statement is required to be attached to all submitted papers and projects:
In this paper, every opinion from someone else has been properly credited (whether it is a direct quotation enclosed in quotation marks, a summary, or a paraphrase). All factual information (common knowledge or uncontested knowledge), though not credited in any way, has been stated in my own words. In using factual information, I have not copied entire sentences or portions of sentences in the exact words of another. This paper is my own work. No one has helped me in the organization or writing of this paper. I have read the complete assignment.

NUMBER 8 THE LID IS NOW ON Strinaent Orders for Enforcement of the Law Issued by the Mayor. OUR CRUSADE BEARS Fruit.—Better Coaditioa to Prevail at Least Until Alter Ihe Electioa. It is gratifylne indeed, to know that the efforts of tbe Journal toward tbe suppression of notorious evils in this oommunlty have so soon borne frnit. We learn that tbe lid has been put on, and screwed down tight, tbat both mkrshHls bave been orJered to sit on it or stand on it, or any wsy to keep it down. We lesrn thst fhe edict has been issued by tbe mayor, and tbat hereafter, at least until after the elec- 'tlon, tbe police of tbe city will he re- quired to devote more time to tbe en¬ forcement of tbe luw and tbe earning of tbeir salaries, and less to toasting their shins at the City Hall, or Indulg¬ ing in ribaldry and lewd jokes at "The Boar's Nest." While tbe Journal is not committed to the doctrine of deathbed repentance nor eleventh hour conversions, yet we bave no inclinaticn to withhold credit where credit is due. And hence we welcome tbis spasm of virtue on the part of the city administration, and only regret that our crusade did not be¬ gin earlier. In fact, we understand tbat tbe mayor has always claimed he would enforce tbe law whenever there was any public clamor atmnt it. If so, then tbe Journal has certainly been derelict iu its duty in not earlier voic¬ ing the complaints which have been practically universal for two years. Aud we hasten to applaud tbe prenent commendable, IhouKh somewbHt tardy, attitude of the mayor toward the proper enforcement of tbe plain provision of the law. The fact that the mayor has been brought to this rixhteons frame of mind under strong pressure, may de tract somewhat from bin pt-iHunal glory. Uut tbe effect will be jnst tbe same and the good citizens of Flora, may, we trnst, fur the next two months at least, view witb complacency the novel situation of a reisonable execu¬ tion of tbe law. Iu thla self complac¬ ency and self congratulation tbe JoUR- HAL win join with some gusto. We should be glad to be relieved of the fnrtber necessity of exposing conditions so revolting tbat tbey stink to high heaven. We shall continue to t>e l/onbled with doubts, however, as to the gennineness of tbis tardy awaken¬ ing of the uiHvor from his profound lethargy, and we will keep in reserve a lltwral snpply of ammunition for fur¬ ther use. The snpply is by no means exhausted. We are loaded .for bear, aod aiming at pretty big game. Bnt tbis old shot gun of onrs is liable to scatter dreadfully, and we advise the small fry to keep ont of range. Already we fear a few stray shots have done some execution. Otherwise why do the fellows get up on their bind legs and bowl! We trust tbey will keep up their noise. For we will know jast where to locate them when we get ready to fire in tbeir direction. We bave some prettv bot shot yet in our locker and not all of it is Intended for tbe mayor. The Journal is ready to join bauds with those wbo believe in the suprem¬ acy and dignity of the law In a com¬ bined effort for the election of a miyor who will obligate himself to a rigid en¬ forcement .of the plain provisions of the law, not for two months, bnt for two whole years. This may be a novelty In Flora and the mayor may be.called a freak. Bnt 'VO are willing to chance a shot at It ouce anyway, and if such a mayor can be found, we predict tbat at tbe end of bis term he can be elected Qovernor of tbe State. Chriatiaa Charrh All services were well attended last Snnday. The offering for Foreign Missions last Bnnday was the largest in the history of the chnrch. The average attendance at Prajrer Meeting since the revival has been fifty two. The Snbject next Snnday night will be the "ConTenion

Palmetto Outdoor Center promotes the preservation of natural rivers and forests. Because awareness is the best way to maintain the environment and cultural heritage, Palmetto spreads knowledge of local gems with river trips and walking tours. These organized tours and vessels for rent allow amateur explorers to discover South Carolina's uncluttered riverbanks while learning about how they can be protected. Civil War walking tours illuminate the history of the region, and canoe and kayak rentals plunge into the tree-lined waterways of the Congaree, which flows through protected national parkland with the continent's largest old-growth floodplain forest.
Adventure Carolina's skilled kayakers lead paddlers on 2.5-hour tours of the rugged Saluda River. As participants propel through icy waters and bob for trout or striped bass, expert guides steer the watercraft and narrate notable sights. Along the way, Saluda River's gurgling rapids sweep kayakers on strong currents, sending them soaring at heightened speeds. Due to the river's unpredictable water levels and large rapids, Adventure Carolina suggests that kayakers, like aspiring pickleball champions, have some paddling experience.
At the Hall of Horrors, thrill-seekers slink through the claustrophobic corridors of a domicile that palpates with a cast of specters that induces goose bumps for a good cause. Crazed scientists slice their way through medical experiments, while chainsaw-wielding clowns hatch maniacal plans for deforesting Christmas tree lots. As a nonprofit haunted house, Hall of Horrors proceeds support South Carolina Jaycee Camp Hope and other charities throughout the Midlands area.
Built in 1772, the Laurence Corley Log House is Lexington's oldest documented abode. It's a logical starting point for visits to Lexington County Museum, a seven-acre village of 36 historic structures that recreate Lexington life from 1770 until the Civil War.
Those buildings include the original Lexington County post office and the Hazelius House, where Charlie D. Tillman composed "Give Me That Old Time Religion." The first Lexington County building included on the National Register of Historic Places, the John Fox House is even outfitted with furnishings the family would have used, such as a pine lazy susan and a mahogany Xbox. Other structures likewise stock authentic 19th century artifacts, such as textiles, pottery, and weapons.
While the exhibited buildings grant a visual glimpse into the past, 13 hands-on activities immerse kids in authentic 19th century experiences. Youngsters can weave on individual lap looms inside the loom house, play with replica toys from the 1800s, or churn butter in the Fox house yard. In the one-room schoolhouse, schoolmasters in period dress teach full lessons to children who must jot down notes with quill pens.
Four generations of the Wilson family have maintained Cotton Hills' sprawling homestead, which continues to yield cotton, wheat, timber, pumpkins, and other produce. Guided tours relax visitors with a 40-minute wagon ride through the twists and turns of a working farm and grant agricultural knowledge without the tedium of a scarecrow's memoirs. Patrons navigate the rustling halls of a corn maze and exchange greetings with barnyard animals in the crisp air. Visitors admire the farm's 19th-century barns, which are steeped in pastoral history. Though not included in this Groupon, locally made ice cream and fresh produce from the adjoining market energize farm visitors more pleasantly than an early-morning phone call from a rooster.
For three centuries, members of the Stewart clan have farmed in Laurens County, a tradition that continues today at Stewart Farms, as three generations of family work to operate the bustling farm and nursery. Seasonal events throughout the year bring visitors to the farm to experience its pastoral setting and taste the products of its fertile soil.
Springtime welcomes the arrival of bright, juicy strawberries, to be picked by visitors or purchased in a gallon bucket to make jam, pies, and sacrifices to prevent the wrath of Strawberry Shortcake. Blackberries crowd trellises in the warmer months, and cantaloupe, corn, tomatoes, squash, and watermelon grow in multitudes throughout the summer. At the end of September, the farm's 5-acre pick-your-own pumpkin patch draws jack-o'-lantern carvers out, and its corn Maize tests the navigational skills of explorers young and old. And in the winter, the farm offers a large selection of farm-grown Christmas poinsettias.

Oakley Week: Mammoth Mountain Raging at the Hyde Lounge, Celebration of 30 Years of O Passion
Mammoth Mountain thought it was ready for Oakley Week. But the famed snow destination was fully smacked upside the head during the O themed time period as Oakley team members, core shop guests, skiers, snowboard shredders and more dropped into Mammoth's village area for its official celebration. And as always (when O throws the party), it raged. Rocking at the famed Hyde Lounge, the unique event marked the apex of what was an already vibrant, raucous week – displaying the new partnership between Oakley and Mammoth Mountain to the fullest. With functions that ran simultaneously throughout the Mountain, Lodge and Village, it was all culminated with the Hyde Lounge event that placed Oakley's "30 Years of Dedication, Technology, Passion and Fun" on display for all to see. The decades of snow innovation literally hung from the ceilings and were illuminated in displays in a mass celebration of the brand's heritage in snow sports.

Norwegian Metal: Snowboard Star Stale Sandbech Claims Overall TTR World Snowboard Tour Title, Video Edits Drop
The Scandinavians already knew Stale Sandbech as the 'heir apparent' to Norwegian Snowboard Royalty. But few actually thought he'd claim the coveted TTR World Snowboard Tour Title so soon – and at such a young age. Including Stale, himself. "I wasn't really going for it at the start of the season, but then I was leading and thought 'wow', maybe I can actually do this!" he said, rocking his Oakley eyewear, apparel and gear. "Now at the end, it was exciting 'cause I didn't qualify for today – But it is really cool to be part of that legendary list of riders who won it before." The easygoing ripper is known just as much for having as much fun as anyone – just riding on the tour. But despite his super friendly, typically Norwegian demeanor, Stale's riding did the fierce talking for itself.

Major Exploit Hits Tumblr, Affects Over 8,600 Users
4:25 PM EST Mon. Dec. 03, 2012A massive attack against Tumblr appears to have impacted more than 8,600 users whose blogs are apparently becoming infected through the act of clicking on an infected site.
An anti-blogging group known as GNAA is believed to be the source of the attack, which apparently begins with blog entries aimed at insulting the blogger community. Part of the tirade tells bloggers they should "drink bleach and die." In addition to the host of expletives and occasional racist words embedded in the message, other terms include "decadent," self-congratulating," "empty husks of human beings." Readers who click on links while logged into their Tumblr accounts then become infected and find the same messages attached to their own blogs.
"It's probably a Web application vulnerability in the Tumblr code," said Qualys CTO Wolfgang Kandek. "There is some function that Tumblr offers that does not check whether the content comes from the user that is logged in but allows it to be posted through some code that comes from another site."
[Related: W32/VBNA-X Worm Exploits AutoRun, Dupes Users Into Enabling It]
The message also warns that attempting to delete the message will result in deleting of the user's Tumblr account. "But by all means, go ahead!" it says.
"The threat that they can delete your account if you delete their post is probably smoke and mirrors," said Kandek. They probably are just trying to instill enough fear to get people to keep the post intact, but I don't think that technically there is any merit to that threat."
It is important to note that users must apparently have a Tumblr account in order to be affected. Kandek recommends that users remain logged out of the account, if possible. "You might also want to use a different browser for editing, which is a little bit inconvenient, but it's probably the more cautious approach to use two separate browsers for editing and browsing."
Tumblr has confirmed that the attack is under way, and told its Twitter followers that it is currently working to resolve the issue. Meanwhile, some sites are reportedly disabling posting to their blogs until a fix is in place. At least one report suggests that the situation may already be resolved, but Tumblr could not be reached for comment.
Previous attacks by the group have reportedly targeted CNN, Wikipedia and the Obama campaign site, according to Gizmodo's website. The site also claims that the GNAA was responsible for false reports about massive looting in the wake of Hurricane Sandy.

Bridgewater came off the bench to lead Louisville to a 20-17 win at No. 25 Rutgers, helping the Cardinals win a share of their second straight Big East title and the league's automatic bid to the Bowl Championship Series. Playing with a cast on his left wrist and slowed by an ankle injury from his previous game, Bridgewater completed 20 of 28 passes for 263 yards and two touchdowns against a Scarlet Knight defense that was ranked fourth nationally in scoring and 14th nationally in yards allowed. Bridgewater finished the regular season as the Big East leader in pass efficiency (161.6). Big East DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK Aaron Donald • Jr. • DT • Pittsburgh • Pittsburgh, Pa. Donald had five tackles, which included four tackles for loss and a sack, in Pittsburgh's 27-3 win at USF to clinch bowl eligibility for the Panthers for the fifth consecutive season. He led a Pittsburgh defense that limited the Bulls to just eight rushing yards and 117 yards of offense. Donald finished the regular season with a Big East-leading 18.5 tackles for loss, good for sixth nationally.

Cyrus Hall McCormick Born Feb 15 1809 - Died May 13 1884 Improvement in Machines for Reaping Small Grain Mechanical Reaper Patent Number(s) Patented June 21, 1834 Inducted 1976 Cyrus Hall McCormick invented the mechanical reaper, which combined all the steps that earlier harvesting machines had performed separately. Patenting his invention in 1834, after Obed Hussey had announced (1833) the construction of a reaper of his own, McCormick started to manufacture the machine on the family estate in 1837. Six years later he began to license its manufacture in other parts of the country. In 1847 he set up a factory in Chicago, founding what eventually became one of the greatest industrial establishments in the United States. Invention Impact His timesaving invention allowed farmers to more than double their crop size and spurred innovations in farm machinery. Inventor Bio Born in Rock bridge County, Virginia, Cyrus McCormick derived his interest in invention from his father; a Virginia landowner who patented several improved farming implements and worked without success for many years to perfect a mechanical reaper. In July 1831 McCormick succeeded where his father had failed, producing a model reaper with all the essential components of later commercial machines. An astute businessman, McCormick increased his sales with door-to-door canvassing and written guarantees for his ready-to-assemble machinery. McCormick amassed a large fortune and invested widely in later years in railroad and mining enterprises.

Dang, I have to finish ME3 this weekend so I can see what everybody is talking about.
Dang, I have to finish ME3 this weekend so I can see what everybody is talking about.
I just met the gay character on the Normandy.
It's handled pretty stupid. I don't have a problem with gay characters in video games but they basically slap you over the head with the fact that he's gay after you talk to him twice. I thought that issue was handled much better in Fallout: New Vegas where the Arcade Gannon character sort of casually mentioned he was gay after chilling with him forever. He didn't announce he was gay in the second conversation you had with him.
I'm sure BioWare will get all sorts of commendations from GLAAD or whoever for including a gay character that isn't super campy. But, the way they introduced his sexual preference was silly. Might of well had him making out with a dude or wearing a t-shirt that said "I'M GAY!"
I sort of agree, but you wouldn't have thought twice if he had said "I left my wife down there on that planet to die" instead of "I left my husband'... admit it. and thats how they introduced it too, its not like he said "hey shep, I like dudes, hope thats ok!" and shep was like "A-OK Cortez, I'm an equal opportunity hero!"
Yeah, you're right. Plus, I was Googling around and saw on some other forum somebody said that BioWare had to introduce the fact that Cortez was gay early and be upfront about it so you knew he was a same-sex romance option and so male sheps don't waste their time hitting on Vega.
Speaking of Vega, he's great. I honestly didn't expect much because he's a huge musclehead guy and he's voiced by former teen heartthrob Freddy Prinze Jr., but he's actually a great character and a cool guy. "Hey loco."
ha, I was right on the "OMG why did Bioware put the Jersey Shore in ME3?!" bandwagon when I saw early screens of him and ashley. I still can't stand what they did to Ashley, but Vega wound up being a decent character. He was definitely entertaining. I enjoyed the banter between him and cortez in the hanger bay
Rofl. Is this a game or a soap opera?
not a soap opera, but its a lot more character driven than most single player games. Compared to games like HL2 or Skyrim, which are also heavily story-driven SP games, the ME series is almost as much about your interactions with squadmates and other individuals as anything else
Okay, after a 9 hour marathon today, I finished ME3. wut I thought about the ending/other spoilers:
