text: Home Culture Six Rules for Paying for College It's no secret that these days, college costs are over the top. But with a little planning, you'd be surprised at what you can accomplish. UNCF president Michael Lomax points the way. By: Michael Lomax Posted: Aug. 6 2010 6:42 AM 0 ThinkStock.com President Obama has declared that the U.S. should recapture its position as the number one nation producing college graduates by the year 2020. If we are to be globally competitive, he argues, we must have a highly skilled, 21st-century workforce -- and that means more Americans with college degrees. Across the country, school systems are challenged to produce "college ready" graduates -- students who are academically prepared for the rigorous, freshman-year course work they will encounter. But a strong academic foundation isn't the only enabler our kids and their families have to consider. Financial preparation is also crucial; too few students of color and their families develop plans to pay for college. Whether they are low-income with no family experience attending college, or middle-income with a history of family members who have graduated from college, financial planning is too often low on the checklist of things to do. The truth is that in college, it takes academics to compete and money to complete. In fact, for many students, while their biggest initial challenge is adjusting to the rigors of college courses, it is failing to find a way to pay tuition that is their undoing. Financial difficulty is the number one reason that students drop out after a year or even less. So as the new school year begins, with high school students and their parents seriously starting to think about college, they need to learn about and plan for how they will pay for college. Of course, making a financial plan for college won't be without its challenges. There are few readily accessible places to get good information about financing. Most public schools have small college-counseling staffs; counselors are generally overworked, and few are knowledgeable about navigating financial aid regulations to meet college costs. Students and their parents will have to do a lot of work on their own. Keep these six rules in mind as you make your plans. First, it is never too early -- or too late -- to start preparing for college. Unfortunately, too many students and their families wait until the acceptance letter comes in the mail before they consider how they will pay for it. They avoid the subject as if denial will make it go away. Instead, it's imperative to start planning financially at the same time you begin planning academically for college. The more, and the earlier, you learn about college costs and how to pay them, the better off you will be. All of this is doable -- if you plan ahead. Start by completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid at FAFSA.gov. Once the form is completed, you will be notified how much you may be entitled to in federal scholarship grants, how much you may be able to borrow through federally subsidized loans and how much your family will be expected to contribute toward your education. The lower your family's income, the more aid you will be entitled to and the less your family will need to contribute. Third, most scholarships are awarded on the basis of merit and need. Start by going to UNCF.org and clicking on the "For Students" tab to see which scholarships you might qualify for. One UNCF scholarship, the Gates Millennium Scholars Program (GMS), pays all college expenses not covered by Pell Grants, other scholarships or a student's family contribution for 1,000 new freshmen each year. GMS and other programs of this type are competitive, and there are usually many more applicants than there are scholarships to award. So the best guarantee of getting a scholarship is for college-bound students to work very hard, make very good grades and develop records of academic distinction that will make them more competitive. Colleges look for a wide variety of students, so highlight the things that make you different. Take part in activities in areas of your interests, doing things that you can do well and through which you can make a contribution. If you're musically inclined, think of joining the school orchestra, band or choir. If your interest is in theater, audition for the school play. Page 1 of 2 NEXT PAGE > Powered by Livefyre

The Pediatric Feeding Program at CHOC was established to evaluate and treat children with significant feeding problems. Children who participate in the program typically have failed outpatient feeding therapy and have either a G-Tube (feeding tube) or are at risk for G-Tube placement.
Children seen in the feeding program have a range of medical/developmental problems including cerebral palsy, developmental disorders, seizure disorders, genetic disorders, oral motor dysfunction, short-bowel syndrome, food allergies, history of prematurity and behavioral disorders. The multidisciplinary program includes specialists from gastroenterology, speech therapy, occupational therapy, psychology, social services, and nutrition.
The feeding program can include one or all of the following components: an initial screening, outpatient feeding evaluation, psychology/behavioral consultation and an intensive inpatient feeding program. After each stage, recommendations are made to best meet the patient/family's goals for better feeding skills.
Letters from grateful parents:
You are all so incredibly good at what you do; each and every one of you exceeds your job descriptions beyond belief. Your support, compassion, and vested interest in my family is what makes all of our accomplishments possible. Words cannot adequately convey my many thanks.

CHOC Feeding Program - Pacer's Story CHOC patient Pacer was only able to eat 5% of his nutrition by mouth and had been fed by a feeding tube for most of his life. A group of dedicated professionals led by Dr. Mitchell Katz, Medical Director of the CHOC Gastroenterology & Nutrition Program all worked together so one little boy could learn to eat. For the first time in 3 years, Pacer now receives all of his nutrition by mouth. |

I've got our prototype cluster (8 nodes, expanding to 40 odd later) booted on RPL+DHCP/BOOTP on these PcChips M810 boards... Linux 2.4. Even with NFSv3 we're only getting about 3Mb/s at max xfer across to NFS. Not sure what the problem is (we're using a RAID but we're gonna go to a buncha raid 0 ATA-66 drives for scratch files - the raid maxes out at 6Mb/s for now). One thing we're gonna try is NBD. This allows remote mounting of a file on the server (via a server side daemon listening on a port, or via inetd) as a filesystem. There are many interesting possibilities with this which are quite useful to beowulf admins. (raid0 across a network! ;) However the NBD device just freezes whenever I write to it... cant even make a filesystem on it. Im using pavel's original nbd-client and server stuff, and the only other package that I can find that might do this stuff is the Enhanced NBD on Freshmeat, but the code wont compile. (I have a 2.4.2 kernel and my lots of header files seem to be totally incompatible with the code. I am not enough of a code guru to wade through all the fixes required). The Nbd-server stuff at SCYLD (ironically enough) doenst exist on their FTP server ('file not found'). I've asked the maintainer of the code for help (no reply yet, but then again I just emailed a few hours ago). So a couple things to ask here: 1) has someone got the nbd client and server code? not pavel's versions, I know they dont work for me. Perhaps alternate versions wont work either, but I dont know where to start to figure this out. 2) I need some other way to keep the scratch files off the network. I Have 256Mb in my prototype nodes, but we'll be increasing that to 512Mb. I found under FreeBSD the MFS filesystem (memory fs) works quite well because it writes to ram when needed (albeit via useland - costs about 1.5% cpu overall for my types of jobs), but when it goes beyond actual core, it will swap - in my case it would be to the NFS server, which is fine - only machines that have full MFS's would write at all, and we've calculated things to be such that this is rare. I Have the network setup to be able to handle the average load (which is about .25 to .5 Mbps average per node). Ie the scratch files generally fit into buffers/local core Aside: seems to me I should let g98 manage the ram itself and avoid needing to write scratch files anyway - but there will always be a situation where the scratch files may come out larger than local core and I;ll need a backup system to handle it, and I need more than 3Mb/s (or 600K/s which is what I see g98 getting in trafshow). There's no MFS in Linux unfortunately, but I need something like it. Ramdisk doesnt work because when its full, its full and there's catastrophic failure (unless g98 understands alternate scratch areas? I havent checked that now that i think of it). NFS or NBD could both work here - except NBD has the potential to run far faster I think - the key to the whole thing however is ensuring local buffers are used for r/w instead of syncing back to the server all the time for a read on a recently written file. To compound things Linux 2.4 is bitching about locking on the FreeBSD 4.3 NFSv3 raid server - I found things will only work with -o nolock on my Linux mounts - I think this may not allow me to use local buffers for rereading recently written scratch files from buffer and avoid abusing the network. I guess I can fix this in one of several ways: - get NFSv3 locking working to allow local buffers for writes/rewrites - get nbd working with extremely long sync/kupdate times so it almost never syncs back buffers across the net unless they're full Anyone got other suggestions? Im doing some bonnie tests here on the raid I see from one of the nodes and Im getting respectable speeds - 10MB/s for small files - which is higher than I get on local bonnies on the raid server itself (6MB/s max write speed of the disks) - with larger test volumes (larger than free mem/max possible buffers) I get slower speeds, which suggests some buffering is going on for writing/rewriting which is what I need. (slightly odd stats below, but... could be the raid was being used... others have access to it, Im only storing log/source files there, scratch soon moving as I said to raid 0 ata-66 or -100): rw,v3,rsize=16384,wsize=16384,hard,udp,nolock,addr=raid: -------Sequential Output-------- ---Sequential Input-- --Random-- -Per Char- --Block--- -Rewrite-- -Per Char- --Block--- --Seeks--- Machine MB K/sec %CPU K/sec %CPU K/sec %CPU K/sec %CPU K/sec %CPU /sec %CPU n1 1* 5 10406 85.4 8857 3.5 910 0.2 11842 87.9 154421 90.5 623.4 5.5 n1 10* 5 1074 8.5 3527 1.6 837 0.6 11355 86.3 194485 87.4 693.0 5.9 n1 1* 100 3896 30.7 3800 2.2 835 0.6 11441 86.0 191955 84.4 459.5 3.4 and another try (hmm locking not an issue anymore?) lock,rw,nfsvers=3,rsize=16384,wsize=16384,udp,soft: -------Sequential Output-------- ---Sequential Input-- --Random-- -Per Char- --Block--- -Rewrite-- -Per Char- --Block--- --Seeks--- Machine MB K/sec %CPU K/sec %CPU K/sec %CPU K/sec %CPU K/sec %CPU /sec %CPU n1 1* 5 10199 85.7 8833 6.9 906 0.7 11811 90.0 154012 60.2 587.2 5.3 n1 1* 100 2255 17.7 3447 2.0 834 0.6 11531 86.0 192423 86.4 474.0 3.9 /kc -- Ken Chase, math at velocet.ca * Velocet Communications Inc. * Toronto, CANADA

Santa Rosa County Commissioners approved the 2013 budget at $98,959,733 during a Sept. 17 final budget hearing.
Sheriff Wendell Hall was the only person to speak to commissioners during the public input portion of the hearing. Hall told commissioners that his office had about $700,000 in funds from last year's budget that he would like to have rolled over into his 2013 budget. He added that commissioners had allowed him to roll over unused funds to the next year's budget for the last few years.

This is my first post on the forum, and unfortunately it is with the intention of doing some winging. I come from a design background myself (not application skinning) and I require my desktop to look good. Visual aesthetics are important to me, and at the moment, MediaMonkey is not doing what I would like it to be at all.
I have looked at all the skins available via the forums, the skin Wiki, or via plain old Google searches. Nothing meets my expectations. There are a lot of skins out there, but a lot of them are, to be honest, crap. Primary colours that have no natural integration with the rest of the design, fat bevel embossing buttons that I thought were cool when I was about 14. In terms of professional design, there aren't many skins that I would rate as good that are available. Please don't take this offensively any of you who make skins for MediaMonkey, this is not my intention. Design and the personal development of ones personal style is something that happens over time and through experience, and the more skinners we have for our favourite media player the better. The skins I like are the ones that imitate other players, Songbird, iTunes, WMP 11. I also like 7On Skin, and ION skin. However, at the moment I am using the un-skinned version as nothing else seems appropriate.
As I have no experience with application design myself (mostly graphic and web), a skin I would be most happy to see is a Windows 7 skin. Something that blends in with the Windows 7 interface now that Microsoft have finally developed a well designed, and in my opinion, awesome OS. Aero glass interface, subtle well designed buttons and menus. If anyone is developing anything like this at the moment, please let me know as I anxiously await the final version of your work. If no-one is developing it at the moment, is anyone considering it? I do not think I am the only one who would love a skin that perfectly integrates with Windows 7.

With the title "Canadian universities in a global context: A dialogue on international trends and opportunities," the conference might sound more like a lecture to sleep through than a wake-up call. But organizers – the University of Alberta and Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada – have reason to hope the latter is what they delivered.

Prime Minister Stephen Harper is expected to shuffle his cabinet soon, and he'll have some senior positions to fill. Minister of State for Finance Ted Menzies announced this week that he will not seek re-election in 2015. Recently, Fisheries and Oceans Minister Keith Ashfield announced his resignation from cabinet as he battles cancer. The fate of other seasoned ministers — including Public Safety Minister Vic Toews and Defence Minister Peter MacKay — is the subject of rumour.

Coun. Don Iveson called for the city to take its "next big step" Tuesday as he joined two council colleagues in the race to become Edmonton's next mayor. "My passion is city building, and my city is Edmonton," he told about 100 supporters crowded into a room at the Edmonton Petroleum Club.

While Canada's international-student population has exploded to 265,377 students at all education levels, student traffic between Canada and the U.S. – in both directions – levelled off years ago. The 76 per-cent spike in foreign students since 2002 has been built by successfully appealing to countries like China and India, setting Canada up to benefit over the coming decades from having university graduates in those economic powerhouses who are familiar with and even fond of Canada. Yet there is also growing recognition that Canada neglects its closest educational neighbours at its peril.

The City of Edmonton has a new economic development plan with City Council's approval March 20, 2013 of The Way We Prosper. The plan is one of the City of Edmonton's six long range plans that envision and guide the city's future in urban planning, transportation, environment, community living, economic development and financial sustainability.

Editor's Note: This article is part of our 2013 Tax Tips series . Robert Flach is an expert with almost 40 years of experience as a tax professional and also blogs as The Wandering Tax Pro .
NEW YORK ( MainStreet) I recently told you to sit down with paper and pencil and, using your 2012 return as a guide, prepare a projected 2013 tax return as a starting point for year-end tax planning strategies to make sure you pay the absolute least amount of federal, state and local income tax possible.
As part of this process, you should take a good look at your latest paystub with year-to-date totals. Check your federal and state income tax withholding to date, and estimate what the numbers will be for the year to see if you will be caught short.
In order to avoid a penalty for underpayment of estimated tax, you must have either 90% of your 2013 tax liability or 100% of your 2012 tax liability (110% if your 2012 AGI was over $150,000) paid in during the year by withholding and/or quarterly estimated tax payments. Similar rules often also apply to state tax payments.
The timing of the payment of the tax is important. The penalty is determined based on quarterly income and tax payments.
Withholding, from whatever source, is assumed to be made evenly throughout the year. Even if you have all your federal income tax withheld in December, it is treated as being paid equally over the 4 quarters for purposes of calculating underpayment of estimated tax.
Estimated taxes are applied in the calculation when actually paid. You cannot necessarily avoid a penalty by making a fourth quarter "catch-up" estimated tax payment. If you determine that you need to pay $10,000 in estimated tax for the year and you make the payment by the January 15, 2014 deadline you will still be penalized for underpayment for the first three quarters.
If your year-end review suggests that you will be underwithheld for the year, and could be subject to an underpayment penalty, increase your income tax withholding for the last two months of the year by filing a revised Form W-4 with your employer.
There is another way to increase withholding and avoid an underpayment penalty.
Suppose in the course of preparing your projected 2012 tax return you discover that you did not have enough federal income tax withheld from your paycheck and you will owe "Sam" at least another $10,000 because of additional taxable income received at various times throughout the year. Instead of increasing your withholding at work, you can -
(1) take a $10,000 distribution from a traditional or ROTH IRA in December and elect to have 100% of the distribution ($10,000) withheld for federal income taxes, and

If you live outside the U.S. and want to really feel like you're part of the Super Bowl action, you're in luck this year. For the first time, international broadcasts in high definition will feature 5.1 surround sound, thanks to the joint efforts of THX, Neural Audio and the NFL.
It's the first 5.1 surround sound broadcast for the big game internationally, which will be from 57 broadcasts to 223 countries and territories in 30 languages, with the HD signal going to 30 broadcast partners and 28 countries.
Game time on Sunday from Glendale, AZ, kicks off at 6:30 p.m. EST between the Patriots and Giants.
Neural-THX Surround technology lets broadcasts deliver the multichannel audio using minimal bandwidth over stereo channels, the company says. For the Super Bowl, the technology will let the NFL's on-site broadcast teams produce the game in 5.1, then send the sound mix in stereo format to audiences worldwide, whose A/V receivers that feature Neural-THX surround can decode to 5.1.
The technology is in about 70 percent of new A/V receivers from the major manufacturers, the company says.

Microsoft Office for Ipad Mini?

Best AnswerThere are several office apps on the iPad like Apple's iWork, QuickOffice, DocstoGo. They cost between $10 - $20. There are some free apps too but dont have the editing features of a MS Office suite and mostly don't open MS office documents properly. Also I found them very difficult to use on the iPad. AstralPad is the best Office app in terms of editing features, MS office document fidelity and UX. It is definitely worth trying and it is FREE.

what apps enable making a phone call from an iPad Mini w 3g, and what charges are associated with making voice calls?
I'm wondering whether I could get away with not having an iPhone (which I don't like using for much besides making voice calls, since the screen is so small) and just use an iPad mini for calls and more.
But I don't want to do this if using it for voice calls is exorbitantly expensive.
Thanks for sharing your experience and insight on this.- Asked by Karin S from Sausalito

Best AnswerYes. I have done this. There are several apps that you can allow you to utilize your ipad as a phone. I am pretty sold on Talkatone, so far. It requires a gmail account to establish a Google Voice number, but you can then get a local number with your current area code. I now carry one device. I currently have AT&T plan for 3 gb per month, and it is thirty dollars. My usage is not heavy though but I have seen virtually no bump in my data usage. I am always well below my cap. The app is well designed for talk or SMS texting. I dropped a separate phone altogether. The app works great but I also upgraded to the "premium" level which bangs for a whopping 20 dollars per YEAR. Removes ads and improves sound and moves you to the front of the calling que for any customer support (I have used this for about seven months now and never needed customer support yet). Good interface. Easy to use. Very handy.

Does ipad mini with cellular can make phone calls without using any app?
- Asked by Faiz H from Iligan City
- Nov 2, 2013
- Flag as inappropriate
AnswerWell, without using ANY app all you're doing is staring at your home screen full of app icons. If you mean using only one of the default apps, then no. The closest you can come is with FaceTime, which is Apple-to-Apple only.
However, there are many ways you can place and receive phone calls with cell phones and land lines using any number of apps. With Google Voice service from Google you can make calls, take calls, and send/receive SMS; it's all still free although Google might change that at any time. Google has its own app (Google Voice) although you will need some other VOIP app to go along with it. GV Mobile + v3 does pretty much everything Google's Google Voice app does plus it has VOIP built in although it does cost a few dollars rather than being free. Other options are to get an app such as TextNow, which has free texting, free incoming calls, and outgoing calls which require "credits" which can either be purchased with iTunes dollars or earned by downloading other apps or watching ads or signing up for other services.- Answered by John H from Oakland Gardens

Would an iPad Mini work well as a cell phone as well as having standard other features.
I currently use Blackberry (for phone, text, browser, emails etc). I don't make or receive a lot of phone calls, but I don't want to carry both an iPad mini and a cell phone. Is there a Canadian carrier which offers reasonable rates for this combo and is the iPad mini suitable for this.

Best AnswerThe iPad mini cannot be used as a cell phone, although VOIP using WIFI connections is possible. This applies to both the WIFI as well as cellular versions. The cellular version of the iPad (mini or otherwise) is currently used only for mobile data plans, to connect to the internet using mobile data.
VOIP software like Skype or Google Talk, etc., can be used for voice calls whenever there is WIFI connection, or if the cellular version gets connected to the internet using cellular or mobile data connections in the absence of WIFI.- Answered by Leonard W

Best AnswerThe above solution of using WhatsApp is incorrect. The developers of WhatsApp have not enabled functionality of their app on iPad for whatever reason. It will only run on iPhone, even though its all iOS. To send messages from iPad to an Android device you would need to seek out another third party solution, and hope that your Android friend is willing to install it as well.

what is a Cellular data plan
When you say cellular I think cell phone. Can I make phone calls with a cellular data plan?
- Asked by Christine V from San Jacinto
- Oct 12, 2012

Best AnswerUnfortunately, you can't make phone calls on an iPad with 3G network capability. What "cellular data plan" is referring to is the contract that you can have with a network carrier in order to receive a mobile internet signal on an iPad with 3G capability. You can buy a data plan on the Apple Online Store when purchasing an iPad, or go to a carrier shop directly (for example AT&T in the US). The plans vary in price and the amount of mobile data you can get over the course of a month. Although if you have a 3G capable iPad, there are apps available that let you make free calls using your data connection to other Apple devices such as the iPhone and iPod touch.

FAIRFIELD, IOWA -- Just weeks after a walk-in clinic opened its doors in the City of Bridges, another will soon be opening in Eldon.
The Fairfield Clinic will be opening an outreach clinic next month. A clinic previously associated with Ottumwa Regional Health Center closed in 2009, and since, the community has expressed a need for healthcare to return to the area.
"The community had a need and we needed to re-establish healthcare, so we decided that that would be something that we would like to embark on," said project manager Jolaine Coop. "It's a new adventure for us. We know how to run an office and the doctors know how to practice medicine, but we've never done one outside of our own confinements, so that's where it kind of began."
The Fairfield Clinic began walk-throughs and negotiations with Eldon city officials in February, and with everything now agreed and completed, they hope to open July 10. The clinic will be open Tuesdays and Fridays, with appointments being taken from 1:30-4:30 p.m., with some walk-ins being taken.
"We do plan to offer flu clinic when the season is there, we have already agreed to do the Cardinal athletic physicals, we'll be doing those in August," Coop said. "We will have limited services, we won't have a complete lab and we won't have x-ray, but we made arrangements with Jefferson County Health Center for some of our lab services."
Two doctors currently staffed at the Fairfield Clinic, one a resident of Keosauqua and the other of Batavia, will alternate days at the new Eldon Outreach Clinic.
As of now, a phone number for the Eldon location hasn't been established, but anyone with questions should call the Fairfield office at 641-472-4141.

SYRACUSE -- Syracuse Police are investigating an armed robbery Tuesday at a Little Caesar's Pizza in Syracuse.
Police say the employees were robbed around 9:55am at the Little Caesar's Pizza on Wolf Street, about an hour before the store was set to open at 11:00am. The employees were reportedly at work early to accept a delivery.
Police say the suspects made off with two bank bags and the contents of two cash registers before fleeing the crime.
The suspects are both described as slender black males. One reportedly had darker skin while the other suspect was much lighter skinned.
Witnesses say the suspects were wearing ski masks, black jeans and black shirts; one wore a black jacket and the other wore a black long sleeved t-shirt.
Police say at least one of the suspects was armed with a gun.
Police are asking anyone with information to call 315-442-5222. All calls are kept confidential.

2013 summer classes
Beginning in 2013, College of the Atlantic is pleased to offer a limited number of undergraduate classes during the summer season. Current COA students and visiting students from other institutions are welcome to participate. Each course is one COA credit (3.3 semester credits).
Course dates and descriptions are below; you may also contact course faculty to learn more about the course and discuss whether it will be a good fit for your academic needs. Non-COA students must apply by no later than May 17, 2013.
For more information on applying to be a visiting student for a summer course at COA, please download the information and application forms available to the right.
Marine Ecology
Helen Hess (email@example.com) - Faculty Bio
Chris Petersen (email@example.com) - Faculty Bio
Dates: June 9–23
This summer field course is intended for students who have some familiarity with the natural history and ecology of local marine organisms along the coast of Maine and are eager to take their understanding to the next level in the context of an intensive summer course. The class will meet all day, every day for 15 days, from June 9 through June 23, and will comprise several parts, including lecture and discussion of papers from the primary literature, field trips to explore diversity of local habitats, and several research projects. We will work together on two class projects. One will involve the reproductive biology of mummichogs, a small, estuarine fish that is locally abundant. Although not on the scale of wild salmon runs, mummichog spawning is a frenzied spectacle of nature involving dozens of fish simultaneously releasing gametes in the shallows at high tide. Students will collect data on spawning behavior and patterns of survivorship among eggs laid at intertidal sites. The other class project will involve population biology of three species of intertidal snails and how parameters such as species abundance and diversity, size-frequency distribution, and population density vary among populations on various small coastal islands. We will access these islands for censusing via sea kayak, and students interested in learning more about safety and navigation in sea kayaks will have that opportunity. We may include an overnight trip if weather and timing permit. Finally, students will also design their own independent projects, and they will meet individually with instructors to discuss hypothesis generation, experimental design, data collection and analysis, and final communication of results. The final day of class will involve a presentation of individual projects. Students will be evaluated on participation on the class projects and other activities, short written assignments, and the quality of the final project.
Intermediate/Advanced. Prerequisites: Marine Biology, Invertebrate Zoology or an intermediate-level course in ecology or behavior and permission of instructor.
*ES* Class size limit: 16
Lab fee: $80
Writing for Performance: Three Week Lab
Faculty: Jodi Baker (firstname.lastname@example.com) - Faculty Bio
Dates: June 10–28, weekdays only. Class meets as a group from 1–5pm; mornings will be devoted to
individual meetings with the instructor, research, drafting and
This is a fast-paced, practice-oriented workshop geared toward
generating a diverse portfolio of original performance material and
developing effective and efficient habits for sustaining a personal
creative process. Together we will study the work of solo artists such
as Ruth Draper, Lord Buckley, Laurie Anderson, Spalding Gray, Anna
Deavere Smith, Lisa Kron and Tim Miller as well as contemporary
collectives such as Nature Theater of Oklahoma, Pig Iron, Rude
Mechanicals, and Elevator Repair Service. Students will spend a
significant amount of time developing their own revision and rehearsal
skills and exploring the unique challenges and possibilities that come
with solo and collaborative theater making ventures. We will consider
the role of audience and location in creative process and we will
establish a collaborative working ensemble to help guide and support the
evolution of each original piece. Assignments will include monologues,
scenes and one very short play and pieces will be derived from various
written and physical prompts as well as experiments in object,
site-specific and documentary theater forms. The course will culminate
in a final group performance of selected works. There will be at least
one field trip.
Class size limit: 12
Lab fee: $40
Trees and Shrubs of Mount Desert Island
Faculty: Nishanta Rajakaruna (firstname.lastname@example.com) - Faculty Bio
Dates: June 10–28, Weekdays, 9am–5pm
This course is currently full and not accepting applications.
This field botany course introduces you to the native and ornamental shrubs and trees of Mount Desert Island, many of which are also found throughout New England. Lectures will cover basics of plant taxonomy and forest ecology, focusing on the dominant woody plant species of the region. We will also discuss current stressors to plants and their habitats, including those associated with global climate change. Laboratory and field sessions will involve the identification of woody plants and an introduction to the native plants and their habitats on the island. The course is designed to teach botany and plant taxonomy for students interested in natural history/ecology, conservation biology, plant systematics, forestry, ethnobotany, herbarium/arboretum management, and landscape design. Evaluations are based on class participation, field/lab quizzes and a plant collection consisting of 25 specimens belonging to at least 20 plant families. The class will meet from 9am-5pm Monday-Friday. Each student is expected to have an individual meeting with the instructor for 1 hr each week. There will be three field-based quizzes and one lab quiz per week and the plant collection will be due by July 1, 2013.
Introductory/Intermediate. This class is a pre-requisite for other botany
courses Nishi teaches including Plant Systematics, Evolutionary Processes in
Plants, Plants with Mettle, and Plant Communities of the Americas. Recommended: some background in biology and a strong desire to be outdoors.

Happybuntu! 5 Years Ubuntu
The Ubuntu community has a lot to celebrate this month: on October 16, 2004 the German ubuntuusers.de went online for the first time and October 20 of the same year saw the release of Ubuntu 4.10, alias Warty Warthog.
Ubuntu 9.10 is scheduled for release at the end of this month, almost exactly 5 years after the first Ubuntu release ever. Warty came with a 2.6.8 kernel, XFree86 4.3, Gnome 2.8, (not to be confused with Gnome 2.28) and Firefox 0.9.3.
ISO images of Ubuntu 4.10 are still available for download. Along with x86 and amd64 versions, the first release also included a PowerPC variant for MacBooks. The rapid success of Ubuntu can be contributed to a number of factors. Firstly, the distro is based on Debian, and apart from the first LTS version, has always achieved its release-date goals (X.04 in April, X.10 in October). Also, Ubuntu has increased the acceptability of Live-CDs and made sudo, the simple admin without root-rights de facto default.
Ubuntu's stringent menu management is also considered one of the distro's great strengths: discounting a few small details, individual sub-menus still contain the same programs found in version 4.10. In German speaking countries, Ubuntu has definitely profited from Novell's takeover of SUSE and the technical immaturity of SUSE version 10.x.

G'Day Ryan,
I would not be surprised at anything weird Jindal would do, and this sounds typical of the genre. I've passed through Louisiana a few times and with the exception of Coon-Ass cooking and New Orleans Jazz, the state is a backwoods swampy hell-hole in my opinion.
Since you're in the houston area, google "Houston Atheist MeetUp group" and join up. They are a large group with a lot of activities; I think you'll like what you see. I'm on their email list but it's too fr away from Decatur up NNE of Fort Worth for me to go except if I happen to be in Houston at the time.

Reblogged from Landlords Scoop:
If you are a landlord, there are many benefits of joining a landlord association. If you are a struggling landlord, having a hard time finding good tenants, or having any problems managing your rentals, a landlord group can be a useful source of advise, acknowledgment and help. As a landlord, you are not alone.
Landlord associations are also sometimes called a Landlord Group, Real Estate Investing Club, or a Property Owners Association.

Industrial Facility: Searching for Balance
Balance is what sets apart the design work of Sam Hecht and Kim Colin, the husband and wife team that founded the London-based firm Industrial Facility in 2002.
"We need contrast and tension to be able to create," says Hecht, an industrial designer naturally drawn to the details of a project. A tendency complemented by Colin, a trained architect with an eye for big-picture connections. "If Sam gets really small on something," she explains, "I can back out and say 'that's great, but is it relevant? How does it connect?'" An observation acknowledged by Hecht, who describes their design process as a series of conversations. Working together in this way, the two find balance, a fact evident in the simple elegance of their designs.
Check out Sam Hecht and Kim Colin's contribution to Why Design, a new video series featuring stories from Herman Miller's creative network.

I broke a spark plug off at the base of the threads, #6 Do i use a extractor of some kind is there a special tool? Need Help
52 308 hasn't been run since 1966. New it would be trouble it didn't have a hose from the vent on it. So the water just sat there. Soaked them for 2 weeks prior, the first 5 came out easy. OH BOY Any Help? JOHN -
If it were mine, I would pull the head and have it checked to be sure that it was going to be usable down stream, then I would have the plug machined out trying to save the integrety of the threads have the head machined flat and reinstall. Naturally, you have not mentioned the state of the car or the condition of the engine. Perhaps it is time for a rebuild on the engine. My cure would much the same either case.....Brownie
Don't attempt to use an 'easyout' or similar LH threaded extraction device. Inevitably you will break it off in your broken sparkplug, compounding the problem.
Its a PITA but the head does need to be removed. Your options after that are to find someone who knows what he/she is doing to remove the offending plug without damaging the threads, or put another head on.
You may know this already, but the 50 or so year old oil in the sump has probably turned to jelly, the 'oil' you see on the dipstick may not be oil any more. To be safe, if you want to do anymore than bring the engine to life briefly, drop the sump and clean out the gunk. -
Thats what i thought, but wanted to check IT was out here in the country 40 miles from nowhere, A burnt valve is the story i got why it was sent to shed,then to a lean too,then next to it. then moved around with a tractor, But still the body is straight ,the frame is real good, Needs interior. Found today it needs the pipe from the exhaust manifold broken all the way off,It was wired up to it.I thought it was used to disapate the heat for vapor lock. Complete twin h a308 but it has a 262 head on it, the block was painted red but when i washed all the mud and dirt off it was gold. 72 thousand on its clock. Its a retirement project but iam not retired yet. But i had to rescue it. Ill read up and try and post some pictures,I named it happy the hornet. Thanks JOHN
I would not get too distressed over it . There are a lot of good heads around yet,
RogerRetired Tech. -
i wrestled with one like that for a week or so. finally got it out, but had to pull the head anyway! the plug came apart, with sides completly rounded and totally deformed. i had a little material left and i used one of those drive on external extracors with a impact.

Topic: Custom Gaming System - Antec P182/Intel E8500/9800 GX2/Liquid Cooled Posted: 06 May 2008 at 5:42pm |
Custom Gaming System - Antec P182/Intel E8500/9800 GX2/Liquid Cooled Some customers have a vision into what the most beautiful should look like. They select the options on our website and we start to build it. We then realize just how awesome a computer some of these systems really are. This system was chosen and configured by an actual customer and we are displaying it here for your viewing pleasure. You can click any picture for a bigger view This is a build I have been waiting for. Not only are we going to install liquid cooling on this computer, the customer opted to use one of the newest waterblock from Danger Den for the 9800 GX2. It is a very beautiful water block, and I cannot wait to see it installed in all its glory. For more information on the 9800 GX2 waterblock, please click Danger Den 9800 GX2 Waterblock. To use this waterblock, the tech must first fully disassemble the 9800 GX2 and completely remove the stock cooler and fan. While on a normal card that would be easy and routine, the 9800 GX2 is two separate PCB cards constructed around the cooling system for support. To see how this all works will be something new for me. To top off the liquid cooling, we have ordered a specially fabricated case so that we can install the radiator on top for maximum cooling. Nowhere else can you find a custom radiator setup like this. It was finally complete and I think I went overboard with the pictures. But this system is just so awesome, so great to look at. Not only is this system a performer, function meets design as well. While the mirror finish of the other P182 case was nice, maintaining that finish is going to be hard. This system with such a beautiful window and matte finish is just something new and exciting. The case is not overtly extravagant, yet extrudes this aura of competence like Mr. Miyagi in The Karate Kid. Enough of my ramblings, lets move on to the rest. For the rest of the specs, it seems the customer is taking a completely different approach. They did not go overboard with the CPU and GPU like so many other people do. A single video card and a mid-range dual-core 3.16 GHz Intel set the pace. But then the customer adds a whopping 8 GB of memory along with one of the best audio cards on the market. To some people, the gaming experience may not be about the best graphics possible. With the ram and audio setup, he is sure going to enjoy the sound effects and other possibilities with this machine. Here are the complete specs for all of you look over.

Nice build, can you talk a little about what the "AVADIRECT, Premium 1xCPU + 1xGPU Liquid Cooling Kit" options mean and how they compare to the other liquid cooling options?

The AVADirect Kit includes everything needed for liquid cooling. Waterblocks, radiator, resovior, clamps, hoses, and coolant. It is a custom kit that can include brands like Coolit, Swiftech, Danger Den, and Koolance. Our liquid cooling kits are completely custom, and unique, so they cannot compare to other kits.

The other liquid cooling options come as kits from the manufacturers that we purchase from them. They are basically an all-in-one solution. While it will work most of the time, we like to customize each and every system we build
The AVADirect Custom Liquid Kit is our own selection of name-brand components that we specifically choose to match your system specs exactly. The customer can also specify which components go into their computer as well if they prefer one brand over another.
The build you see above, we selected premium waterblocks for both the CPU and GPU based upon the system build. No other kit allows the usage of the 9800 GX2 waterblock unless you selected our custom liquid system.
A full article on the components we use can be seen here.
