"We passed the red line," says prominent Russian scientist Dr. Alexey Yablokov, who stopped by Blacksmith's offices for a chat recently when he was in New York.
Dr. Yablokov is one of the world's leading authorities on radiation contamination. He is a member of the Russian Academy of Sciences, and was an advisor to the Russian government under Yeltsin and Gorbachev. He has worked for years to rein in the "Cold War inheritance" of toxic pollution. Today, he continues bringing attention to the persistent problem of legacy pollution as well as contamination brought on by modern industry.
In the interview, he notes the vast amount of chemicals and radionuclides that have permeated the environment since the 1950s, and he attributes that to the "disappearance" of a staggering amount of people from the world population today. (Watch the video for the actual number)
Why then isn't pollution bigger news? Well, because pollution is, in many ways, invisible. He believes it is an issue many people fail to notice, especially when they are being poisoned by low doses of pollutants in an environment that presents no immediate danger. "No immediate danger," Dr. Yablokov points out, does not mean no danger.
He is especially critical of the nuclear industry. He co-authored a controversial book Chernobyl:Consequences of the Catastrophe for People and the Environment that claims official discussions about Chernobyl have largely undercounted the disaster's true toll and that many findings reported in Eastern European scientific literature were ignored.
According to Dr. Yablokov, one of the solutions to the pollution problem is education. Only when people know more about what is happening can they take steps to keep themselves safe.
Dr. Yablokov is currently working on helping to identify and assess hotspots in Russia for Blacksmith's Toxic Sites Identification Program. He is also writing several papers for the Blacksmith Journal of Health and Pollution.

Sri Lankan military says 1,200 flee war zone |
Monday, 23 March 2009 | |
By Scott Mcdonald, Associated Press Writer COLOMBO, Sri Lanka – Nearly 1,200 civilians have fled fierce fighting in northern Sri Lanka as government troops capture more territory from Tamil Tiger separatists, the military said Sunday. About 1,055 of the civilians, including 380 children, reached military-held areas over the last 24 hours near Puthkkudiyirippu, where battles between government troops and the rebels have been raging for weeks, military spokesman Udaya Nanayakkara said. Puthkkudiyirippu is the last town held by the rebels, fighting since 1983 for a separate Tamil state in the island's north and east. Another 108 civilians fled the war zone by boat from the northeastern coast and reached safety further north on the Jaffna peninsula Saturday afternoon. Troops are pushing into the last major block of Tiger-held land from three angles, and a military statement said Sunday they had captured another small junction. Independent accounts of the fighting are not possible because access to the war zone is restricted. There has been a surge in civilians fleeing the area recently as the army pushes forward with an all-out offensive the government hopes will soon end the island's 25-year-old civil war. The rebel holdouts — along with tens of thousands of terrified civilians — are confined to about 11 square miles (28 square kilometers) of jungle and beach on the northeastern coast. Risks to the civilians have led the United Nations, European Union and numerous countries to voice concern. The U.N. has said 2,800 civilians caught in the fighting have been killed since late January, though the government disputes that figure. The U.N. estimates at least 150,000 civilians are trapped in the war zone. The government says the number is closer to 50,000 to 60,000, and accuses the rebels of using them as human shields in a bid to avoid defeat. The Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam have fought since 1983 for an independent state for the Tamil minority, which suffered decades of marginalization at the hands of governments dominated by the Sinhalese majority. More than 70,000 people have been killed in the fighting. Meanwhile, in Colombo, thousands of ethnic Tamil civilians lined up at schools Sunday to register with police. A government order requires all people who moved to the capital from the north and east to re-register with police every several months. The process has drawn criticism from human rights activists who say it is part of an effort to intimidate Tamils. Police say it's only aimed at deterring rebel attacks on Colombo. The rebels — frequently using suicide attackers — have carried out bombings in Colombo and other places far from the fighting zone. The most recent strike blamed on the Tiger rebels was a suicide bomb attack earlier this month on government ministers leading a procession to mark a Muslim festival in southern Sri Lanka. It killed 14 people and severely wounded one of the officials. Courtesy: Yahoo.com |

I learned a lot in this project about monks and nuns. I learned that they lived a very solitary life. What you usually did in the day was pray, go to church services, work, and then go to bed. I also learned that monks and nuns lived together in a place called a monastery and eventually the nuns made their own house where they worshipped and slept. The word monks come from the word monos (which means solitary) and monasterion (which means religion). Monks and nuns would usually become monks when they are younger and there parents had promises to the church or they had more children than they can handle, but sometimes people became monks and nuns because their spouse died and they were lonely, they wanted to grow closer to God, some even came as a punishment for a minor crime. There is a lot of valuable information that I have learned and I think I am very benefitted with this knowledge and will use it in the near future.

This survey shows 72% of employers plan on giving at least a little something, up 20% from a year ago.
Click here for more on the survey.
Tulane Business Professor Mark Rosa says bonuses give employers some flexibility, compared to locking in new salary increases. "Absolutely. No commitment, it stands it on it's own. 'This year was great, but who knows what next year will bring.' That bonus can dissolve as easily as it was handed out the previous year."
Only about a quarter of those bonuses will be performance based, suggesting that companies had a pretty good year and are sharing it with employees. And here in New Orleans, some people had big smiles when I asked if they received a bonus. One worker who received his bonus said it makes him feel "Somewhat valued."
And those of us who didn't get a bonus? "Oh of course, I'm jealous," admitted a woman in the CBD.
"Most employers understand that workers want to be recognized for their contribution to the company. It doesn't have to be a Wall Street sized bonus check. Many workers would be happy with a $25 gift certificate to a local restaurant or store. Many would probably be happy with an extra day or two of paid vacation at the end of the year. Many are simply happy to have a job in this economy," said John Challenger, chief executive officer of Challenger, Gray and Christmas.

One of the most heartening things I' e seen since I began blogging is the rise of my fellow fat women studying fashion design. In the US there is the phenomenal Ashley Nell Tipton whose collection has just launched (and who I will be blowing my next wage on); our beloved Rosie; the lovely Francesca; and Charlotte. I've been twitter friends with Charlotte for a few years now and I've always loved her personal style, so was immensely excited to see her final collection. She posted it on her blog this week, and… Wow. It's incredible. Cheeky, flirty and fresh.
Now here's where I have to take a different tone. Having followed Charlotte all through her course, I've seen how she's struggled to make this collection a reality. From my point of view, it seems like she had no support whatsoever from her university, for the sole reason that she stuck to her guns and wanted to make a plus size collection. Apparently they were enthusiastic about the idea (when they still felt there was time for her to change her mind and do a straight size collection instead, no doubt) but once she decided her collection would be plus size, was essentially told "you're on your own". Charlotte has had to make all her own pattern blocks and source models for the runway show herself – and has been told she can't show at the uni's London showcase.
Given what Charlotte was up against, that she created a collection of plus size clothes that I and loads of other fashionable fat girls have been crying out for for years is absolutely amazing. In fact, I know of someone else who was forced to make her own pattern blocks and source models after her uni refused to support her: Anna Scholz.
Charlotte doesn't know what grade she'll get for her collection. A grade from people who are too feeble to think outside of the very narrow box of the fashion industry? I don't even think it matters.
Good news! Charlotte has her six models, and can show on Wednesday! Can't wait to see the results!
If anyone is able to travel down to Southampton this Wednesday 22nd May, over 5'4″, size 18-24 and can walk in a straight line without falling over, please let Charlotte know and you can actually wear these gorgeous clothes!

Goal Accomplished!!!! - Stacia Naquin
Updated: 12/12/2013 - I finally did my pull up!!! It was a New Year's Resolution that took me ALL YEAR! But I did it.
Gasoline rationing imposed in New Jersey after Superstorm Sandy has ended.
The odd-even rationing began Nov. 3 because some gas stations couldn't get fuel while others didn't have electricity to pump it.
Gov. Chris Christie says gas supplies are plentiful and there are no more lines of motorists waiting for fuel.
Rationing was put in effect in 12 counties in central and northern New Jersey. It ended at 6 a.m. today.
Rationing continues in New York City and on Long Island.

OK - eBay does NOT count, as it's technically not "the wild".
I'm talking game stores, thrift stores, garage sales, friends, whatever else...
Here's mine (although they have all been sold - sniff, sniff):
1. NES console test cartridge (perfect label) $3.00
2. MINT, complete Q*Bert's Qubes for 2600 (so choice) $2.99
3. StarFox Super Weekend Competition cart for SNES (really good condition) $9.99
Try to limit them to three, unless you just have a couple of more amazing finds that warrant a story.
Carry on...

Any comments from Daniel Pearl? Others?
#1 Daniel Pearl is unavailable for comment.
When are we gonna have "Pee on the Taliban Day?"
The stuff that was done....maybe not right. But I wonder if the JAG judge has every stared down the barrel of a Taliban AK-47 or RPG launcher.
Next time just cut off their heads while they are still alive. Just don´t pee on them.
Little Hooded monk - "Heinous" is far too harsh an adjective for this Marine´s action. Dumb, stupid, uncouth would be better terms for his actions. The same for the use of "desecration", which should be used for religious symbols, not Taliban corpses. Prior to becoming corpses, these Talibsn were trying to kill these Marines, either with AK-47s or the viciously indiscriminate IED that severs legs and/or removes genitals, eyes and hands.To criminalize dumbness in a war our Commander in Chief doesn´t mention, that few in the US care or even know about, and that our Marines and soldiers realize we are about to abandon, is the real crime. And, that our military is fighting under the most restrictive rules of engagement ever imposed on US forces.
Promote him and fire every officer who refused to support him
Go into combat and get your buddies´ brains splatted on your face. Then see how you behave.
Yep, they´ve got nothing better to do than go after this guy. He´ll be glad to get out and start his private life (if he can). Thanks, Marine. If you´re killed and the Taliban piddle on what´s left of your body, we´ll be really annoyed about that, m´kay?Lt. Col Nicole (Oh I am too often ashamed of my gender these days) Hudspeth should be shunned. If I ever have a chance to meet her, I promise I will turn my back and walk away.
Why is there always somebody with a camera at these events ?Why is this a one way street ?
We have obviously become a country of (w)ussies. If you are going to punish anyone, publish the dang fool that recorded it! Dear Al Qaida (including our Dear Leader) - I urinate in your general direction.My father, still living and kickin´ rear, was a Marine in WWII, intimately involved in several of the ´interesting´ island battles of the Pacific. He can tell you that peeing on the dead of the enemy ain´t nothing to what the enemy does to you while you are still alive. Would Daniel Pearl care to comment?
He should not "plea" anything. He should avow, assert, shout from the rooftops that yea verily he did with full intent urinate, pee, expend bodily fluids upon an enemy (deceased) combatant. If we are not there to debase, denigrate, defile, defecate upon and defeat said enemy, then WHY for pities sake are we there bleeding upon foreign soil? He (and others) should "dare" the judges to find him guilty, thereby, showing their hypocrisy.Sorry OP but ware is not a fun business and should be terrible. It should be so horrible that no sane being would want to engage in it. Unfortunately, the moslems are not sane; therefore, we need to make them fear deep into their very core. We need to make war so terrible for them that they would rather commit suicide. Oh, wait. They are insane. So, if you meet them on their terms, then your IQ is going south of the outside winter temperature in Alaska.
war not ware
Obviously, the appropriately characterized Light Col Nicole was an affirmative action hire. Hope her career eventually goes down in flames, I´ll be watching for it.
Somehow I doubt that Chesty Puller who have authorized a court martial over this. Sorry to see the USMC has fallen so far.
I suggest that if we had had more senior officers like Miss Lt. Col Nicole Hudspeth back during WW II, we would still be fighting Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan today.There was a time when I was proud to be an American veteran.
According to Barry, the military should be kissing the corpses. After all, one of his breathern was snuffed out.

Detective Inspector Richard Poole is sent to investigate an impossible murder on a tiny Caribbean paradise island.
This new series from the BBC One is an off-beat procedural, which stars comedian and actor Ben Miller (Primeval, Armstrong and Miller) in a role that seems made for him.
When Detective Inspector Poole is sent to a paradise island to investigate the seemingly impossible murder of another British police officer, who has been stationed there, he finds himself shell-shocked by the cultural differences and the searing heat and does not want to be there. He lets his new work colleagues know about it.
"Death in Paradise" is comedy drama in which much of the comedy is provided by Poole's new workmates who are more laid back and used to island life than the new Detective Inspector is.

* The objective of the Visa Procure-to-Pay and Commercial Card Best Practices Study was to better understand the changes in the segment and to gain a comprehensive understanding of best practices across the Procure-to-Pay process and within the commercial card program. Visa commissioned Deloitte Consulting to conduct 90 in-depth interviews with more than 60 global/multinational, mid-size and large corporations as well as federal and local government agencies across the world. The evaluation of the Procure-to-Pay process included sourcing, order placement, payment and settlement, reconciliation, control and audit, and reporting activities. For the commercial card management process, the assessment focused on practices related to the purchasing and corporate card program strategy, management, and reporting. Interviewees included Regional Controllers, Chief Procurement Officers, Directors of Strategic Sourcing, Procurement Managers, Accounts Payable Managers, Global/Regional/Local Commercial Card Program Managers and Travel Managers. Study participants had a range of commercial card programs in place including purchasing card, corporate card and commercial "one" card programs with each of the top three card providers: Visa, MasterCard and/or American Express.

Try deleting crunchycookie.lwp from /userdata/addon_data/plugin.video.crunchyroll/ and see if that makes a difference. If it still does it I can try looking into it, but I'm not a premium member so debugging these sorts of things is difficult.

That solved the problem! Cheers! But I am sort of curious why restarting XBMC for example did not trigger the creation of a new cookie on its own...

I'm running this on an ATV2 (using the Jan 29 unofficial build, will update to Feb 1 tonight) and I've been able to install 2.1.1 without any problem, but I can't seem to get the videos to play. I can see the files list populate but that's about it. I've included what appears to be the relevant part of the log, it looks like the plugin dies for some reason.

First off, thank you so much for your (as you put it) proof of concept for Plex Media server plug in. It's exactly what i was looking for - streaming a non-local media library from a mac iTunes on the local network. I had tried smb sharing from the mac to the windows 7 htpc but I really like having iTunes on my mac handle all the media, tagging, artwork, etc.
i installed it on both my atv2 and regular htpc running windows 7 (core 2 duo 2.2ghz 4 gigs ram etc) it actually runs quite well on the atv2, no hiccups and tracks start a few seconds after buffering... what doesn't work as well is the win7 htpc... the process of skipping songs or starting a new song, there is a 30 pause of the start of the song, in what i think is a buffering of the song.... i've attached my .log for the windows7 machine... thanks for the work!

Crunchyroll just broke for me:
Quote:HandShake: Server not genuine Adobe! Its the same error as for this plugin: http://forum.xbmc.org/showpost.php?p=735...stcount=88 The only problem is that they work around the problem by contacting a server running older Adobe software. Afaik I can't use an 'older' CR server... Am I the only one who noticed this? Edit: there is a patch to include a newer librtmp in XBMC here: http://trac.xbmc.org/ticket/8971 - but if I read this correctly, its not in the current release. It does sort of explain the version warnings if the old library hasn't been maintained in years...

hey I just installed this plugin it works awesome for displaying the crunchy roll content.
I recently joined crunchy rolls premium site to try out their new android app. So I have access to the 720p streams, but 720p is not working in your plugin just wondering if you can look into this, that would be awesome I'd be willing to help out with any information you need to make this plugin better too thanks. 480p does work though. Also on the series bleach and naruto I get weird subtitles the other shows seem fine I tried changing xbmcs subtitle settings but it didn't fix it. I've thought about downloading boxee cause I read theres support for it. But, I really like xbmc and its what I use for watching all my shows it would be an inconvenience to switch to another app. I really do believe it plays videos the best as well. |

I have the same problem but I suppose the fonts are a result from the subtitle files (they probably require a font which linux normally does not have). |

I don't have a premium account, so I can't really make fixes to the 720p content. It did work awhile back, but I think Crunchyroll made a switch to how their playlists are formatted and it may have broken the HD versions.
As for the handshake error, there's really nothing I can do about that. It seems many CDNs recently upgraded their Flash Media Server software, which caused an updated version of the rtmpe protocol to be implemented. This is something that's handled by XBMC/libRTMP, not my plugin, so it's really out of my control. It's affecting a lot of other plugins as well (BlueCop's plugins in specific) and it sucks. I've noticed the weird font thing as well... I'd have to look at the decrypted subtitles to figure out what font it's looking for. |

George Washington's Secret Six
The Spy Ring That Saved the American Revolution

Summary of George Washington's Secret Six
Summary of George Washington's Secret Six
Reviews for George Washington's Secret Six
An Excerpt from George Washington's Secret Six
"As a Long Islander endlessly fascinated by events that happened in a place I call home, I hope with this book to give the secret six the credit they didn't get in life. The Culper spies represent all the patriotic Americans who give so much for their country but, because of the nature of their work, will not or cannot take a bow or even talk about their missions." —Brian Kilmeade When General George Washington beat a hasty retreat from New York City in August 1776, many thought the American Revolution might soon be over. Instead, Washington rallied—thanks in large part to a little-known, top-secret group called the Culper Spy Ring. Washington realized that he couldn't beat the British with military might, so he recruited a sophisticated and deeply secretive intelligence network to infiltrate New York. So carefully guarded were the members' identities that one spy's name was not uncovered until the twentieth century, and one remains unknown today. But by now, historians have discovered enough information about the ring's activities to piece together evidence that these six individuals turned the tide of the war. Drawing on extensive research, Brian Kilmeade and Don Yaeger have painted compelling portraits of George Washington's secret six: ?Robert Townsend, the reserved Quaker merchant and reporter who headed the Culper Ring, keeping his identity secret even from Washington; ?Austin Roe, the tavern keeper who risked his employment and his life in order to protect the mission; ?Caleb Brewster, the brash young longshoreman who loved baiting the British and agreed to ferry messages between Connecticut and New York; ?Abraham Woodhull, the curmudgeonly (and surprisingly nervous) Long Island bachelor with business and family excuses for traveling to Manhattan; ?James Rivington, the owner of a posh coffeehouse and print shop where high-ranking British officers gossiped about secret operations; ?Agent 355, a woman whose identity remains unknown but who seems to have used her wit and charm to coax officers to share vital secrets. In George Washington's Secret Six, Townsend and his fellow spies finally receive their due, taking their place among the pantheon of heroes of the American Revolution. "James Bond is a rank amateur compared to the heroic efforts of the Culper Ring. Brian Kilmeade and Don Yaeger's work demonstrates why the story of the secret six should be anything but a secret in American history." —HARVEY MACKAY, author of Swim with the Sharks Without Being Eaten Alive "A rollicking read by Kilmeade and Yaeger, acknowledging a long overdue debt to six American heroes." —KARL ROVE "We would not have won the Revolution and secured our freedom, were it not for the leadership of George Washington and the courage of the spies he set in motion. George Washington's Secret Six is a gripping and informative read." —CONGRESSMAN PETE KING, chairman of the Counterterrorism and Intelligence Subcommittee, House of Representatives Committee on Homeland Security "It would have been an honor to have served with Robert Townsend and the rest of the Culper spies in any of the deep-cover intelligence operations I spearheaded over twenty-seven years." —WAYNE SIMMONS, coauthor of The Natanz Directive; CIA–Outside Paramilitary Special Operations "Freedom is not free, never has been, and never will be. Kilmeade and Yaeger have done a wonderful job in reminding us all of the cost. Great read." —GENERAL TOMMY FRANKS (U.S. Army, ret.) "A historical gem. I loved it." —DONALD TRUMP |

BIENVENIDO A Berlin
We are pleased to welcome you to InterContinental Berlin. The German capital city where east meets west and modern meets classic. My concierge team and I are looking forward to giving you an unforgettable Berlin experience.
INNOVATIVE BUSINESS HOTEL IN THE CITY CENTRE The InterContinental Berlin has struck an impressive pose on the city skyline since 1958. A better location is hard to imagine— the government quarter, world-famous Potsdamer Platz and Kurfürstendamm Boulevard are just around the corner. The Reichstag and Memorial Church are within wilking distance. The InterContinental Berlin is your perfect base for the exploration of Berlin.
MAÑANABerlin Underworlds. Almost 40 percent of the buildings in the city centre are situated underground holding secrets of old brewery cellars, the pneumatic post and bunker system. Experience Berlin´s underground bunker and shelter constructions. Afterwards you can enjoy a freshly prepared hot chocolate in the incomparable ambience of the chocolate house Fassbender and Rausch at Gendarmenmarkt. |
TARDETopography of Terror. The majority of NS-regime crimes were planned and directed at the center of these present-day sites. Here the central institutions of Nazi persecution and terror - Secret State Police, the leadership of the SS and the Reich Security Main Office - were located. Partially destroyed during the war, rendered unrecognizable after the war by demolition and conversion and eventually forgotten, this historic site was rediscovered in the early 1980s and gradually reestablished in the historical memory of Berlin and the Federal Republic of Germany. What had been a partial wasteland in the shadow of the Berlin wall was ultimately transformed into a center for the documentation of Nazi crimes. |
NOCHEShow Palace. Welcome to the East End. The Broadway of Berlin and the city´s hip nightlife mile. It stretches from Unter den Linden along Friedrichstrasse to Hackescher Markt. And in the middle you will find the Show Palace - Europe´s biggest theatre. The Show Place attracts its visitors with magnificent revue shows. The modern shows are filled with the most modern aesthetic aspects and brand new high-tech effects. At the moment the performance -Show Me- is held at the Show Palace. |
CULTURA LOCALPotsdam SquareThe Potsdamer Platz is an important square and a traffic intersection in the centre of the capital. It was the largest building site in Europe before completion and is now the new heart of Berlin. Island of MuseumsThe Museumsinsel is a unique ensemble of museum buildings that illustrate the evolution of modern museum design over more than a century. Art vs. RumThe design for the Neue Nationalgallerie was originally intended for the Bacardi Rum headquarters in Cuba, but because of the Cuban Revolution in 1958 it ended up in Berlin. TippingYou should normally tip about 5 to 10 percent in restaurants. |
¿SABÍA QUÉ? ?Big CityThe German capital is almost 9 times as large as Paris. Bridges in BerlinNote the bridgework the city has to offer; Berlin has more bridges than Venice. City of CultureBerlin's vibrant cultural scene has a lot to offer. There are over 170 museums and collections, 300 galleries and numerous special exhibitions and festivals. Three internationally renowned opera houses, a federal ballet, seven symphony orchestras, 15 chamber orchestras and about 850 choirs wait to be discovered. Musical theatres, federal as well as private stages, continue the capital's long theatrical history. Entertainment and arts are as exciting as they are diverse. Panoramic Lift Postdamer PlatzAt the Kollhoff-Haus on Potsdamer Platz one can get a fantastic view of the bustling city by taking Europe's fastest lift to the rooftop for just some Euros. Peacock IslandPeacock Island (with real peacocks) and Glienicke Palace - the embodiment of Prince Carl's Italophilia - is part of the area designated by the UNESCO as a World Cultural Heritage site. |
QUÉ METER EN LA MALETAEurosExchange some money, just enough to cover airport incidentals and transportation to the hotel, before you leave home, so you can avoid unpleasant queues at the airport ATMs. InsuranceYou should have international insurance when visiting Germany, especially if you're planning to drive. Variety of clothingBring a wide variety of clothing. Berlin is an equivalent to diversity. With 1,500 events daily you might feel like a spontaneous change of mind and you might want to be able to dress accordingly! |

While spinach adds its own flavour and renders a green touch to the fibre rich yam, mustard makes it peppier with its textured flavour.
In Andhra, cooking yam with bachchali kura - a leafy vegetable rich in iron is considered a delicacy. But yam can be cooked along with spinach as bachchali kura is not easily available in rest of the country.

[+]Can I choose who I live with?
Yes, you must put the names of your desired apartment mates on the Roommate Matching Form (part of the online application). While we do not guaranty that all requests will be met, we will try our best to accommodate your request. We fill spaces based on time of lease signing. It would be best if you coordinate with your apartment mates a common time that you would all come to the Ridge to sign a lease.
[+]Can I choose which apartment or building I want to live in?
You may indicate your preference for building, apartment, floor number and any special conditions that you have, which may require specific accommodation. Requests are not guaranteed and failure to be placed according to preferences does not constitute justification for breaking a lease.
[+]Who will live with me if I do no request my apartment mates or there is a vacancy?
If your apartment has an unoccupied space, University Ridge reserves the right to place an eligible resident in that space at any time without notice. When placing student in a partial assignment (i.e. Two students want to live together, causing us the need to assign two other students), we refer to the roommate matching form.
[+]Do all of my apartment mates need to be on the same lease term?
Please, speak with professional staff as to the building lease designation and requirements.
[+]When will I know of my official assignment?
You will be able to know which room will be yours at the time of lease signing. If you are mailing in your lease, we will contact you and let you know where you will be staying provided that we have the space to place you.
[+]Can we change our assigned space on our own?
You are financially responsible for all damages in the room that you are assigned.
[+]Where can we store our things when we leave?
Depending on the summer, University Ridge residents on an academic lease may be able to take advantage of our summer storage program. For a fraction of a month's rent you will be able to store your belongings in your apartment for next year! Please contact the office for information and pricing!
[+]How do I break the lease?
[+]What do I need to bring with me at lease signing?
At time of lease signing, you must bring the following with you:
♦ Application: Completed online application with $50 (non-refundable).
♦ One-time administrative fee: $200 (non-refundable).
♦ NOTE: You may combine payments into one check or money order
♦ Lease and Rules and Regulations-Must be signed in presence of Ridge staff
♦ Completed and NOTARIZED Guaranty of Lease form
♦ Photo ID (Driver license or E-Card only), your Social Security #
♦ Check/money orders only will be accepted with your name on the bottom left corner.
[+]Should I read my lease and rules and regulations?
Yes, absolutely. Not only should you read the forms, please make sure your guarantor/sponsor reads the information thoroughly as well. We follow all landlord-tenant laws in accordance with
[+]What is the difference between applying and signing a lease?
When you do the online application with the $50 application fee, you are letting us know that you are interested in living at the Ridge but there is no official contract between you and the Ridge. If we hit maximum occupancy and we still have your application on file, we will keep you on a waitlist, until you tell us that you are no longer interested in keeping your application active. The $50 application fee is non-refundable and non-transferable. When you sign a lease, you are signing a legal document that will be enforced in accordance with PA State Law and you are responsible for all components of the documents. If you fail to meet the requirements of the lease document after you signed with us, you must inform University Ridge staff immediately so we can inform you of the process from that point. All app/redecoration fees are non-refundable and non-transferable.
[+]Why am I paying a $200 administrative fee?
The $200 administrative fee is a one-time fee paid by University Ridge residents and is good for as long as you consecutively renew your lease. If you sign for future lease terms, you do not have to pay the redecoration fee again. The fee goes toward the turnover costs associated with returning your apartment to its move-in condition. NOTE: This does NOT cover excessive cleaning or more expensive damages to the apartment. We assume "normal wear and tear" such as small nail holes, carpet, and furniture wear. However, anything deemed by University Ridge staff as that of beyond normal wear and tear, you will be financially responsible.
[+]Do I have to pay a security deposit?
No, you do not have to pay a security deposit. You will still be financially liable for all damages beyond that of normal wear and tear as deemed by the University Ridge staff. You will need to make sure that you take care of the apartment, clean often, and return to the condition that you received it.
[+]Am I responsible for damages in the common areas of the apartment?
Yes, unless someone takes responsibility for a particular damage or cleaning charge. In the event that we do not know who is responsible for damage, all residents will be charged equally. PLEASE NOTE: BOTH BATHROOMS ARE CONSIDERED COMMON AREA AND ARE NOT ASSIGNED SO EACH RESIDENT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR EACH BATHROOM REGARDLESS OF PREFERRED USAGE.
[+]When are payments due throughout the lease term?
Please speak with professional staff to get an answer to this question.
[+]Do you issue bills/invoices?
We do not issue invoices/bills.
[+]What forms of payment do you accept?
We accept checks, money orders, and online payments via a checking account or credit card. If you pay with an online check, there is no charge. If you pay with a credit card (Visa, MasterCard) there is a 2.5% processing fee added to your payment. Please note that debit cards will be processed as a credit transaction.
[+]If I dont pay my rent but my parent(s) or someone else does, am I still responsible?
Yes, you are the tenant, not your parent/guarantor; as such you are legally and financially liable for all components of your contract/lease. University Ridge does not receive payments directly from ESU when financial aid is disbursed.
[+]What are the rules?
Students living at University Ridge Apartments are held to the ESU Student Code of Conduct found in the student handbook. In addition, there are certain rules and regulations established that are intended to promote community building and academic success. These can be found on this website under the "Application/Forms" tab at the top.
[+]Can I have a car at University Ridge?
Yes, all residents of University Ridge can have a vehicle and park it at University Ridge. However, to park on campus during the business day, students must have 60 credits or more, or be at least 21 years old. Those who do not meet those requirements may get to campus by taking the ESU shuttle or carpool with friends to campus during the day.
[+]Can I use my financial aid to pay my rent?
Yes, but you should discuss this process with the ESU Financial Aid office. When completing your financial aid paperwork, please note that University Ridge is considered off-campus housing and will NOT receive the money transfer from the University directly. They will cut a check to you and then you will pay us. You are still responsible for the payments until you get the refund and the late fees will still be applied so plan accordingly.
[+]How do I move out?
You need to move out by the date mentioned on your lease, but you can move out any time before that during normal office hours. Note: you are still responsible for all your payments regardless of your move out date.
In order to move out:
- Remove all your belongings from the apartment.
- Clean and arrange the apartment as you received it.
- Lock your window, bedroom door and apartment door upon leaving.
- Check your mailbox.
- Fill out a mail forwarding card with the local post office.
- Bring all four keys to the office during office hours and sign in your keys.
- You may want to wait until the last day of your lease to make sure the apartment is in the condition you would like it to be. Moving out earlier than your roommates prevents you from having the ability to check the condition and may result in charges you did not expect.
- You can schedule an unofficial walk through of your apartment at least 24 hours in advance with professional staff to receive suggestions of what to do in the apartment before moving out.
- Any common area damage will be split between all roommates unless the person or persons responsible let us know in writing. Note: both bathrooms are considered common space, and we do not know who used which during the year.
[+]Who is eligible to live at the Ridge?
Any ESU student who is not a first year freshman. Transfer freshmen up to graduate students are welcome!

Course Description This course focuses on the practical application of quantitative tools for analyzing data, drawing appropriate conclusions from data sets, and presenting both the analysis and conclusions in ways that enhance communication with appraisal clients.

Presentation and activities make extensive use of real-world appraisal applications and are aimed at furthering an appraiser's ability to provide credible analysis of real property-related issues.
Upon completion of the course, participants should be able to:

An amphibious seaplane, one of the Sherut Avir's first ten planes. In 1937 a pair of pilots planned a small amphibious plane with a rear mounted engine. Due to financial difficulties, the prototype did not fly until seven years later, in July of 1944.
Technically, the plane was a success, but it failed commercially, initially: the price tag was too high. Modifications were made, production costs were reduced, and the plane's price dropped from a whopping $12,000 to just $3,500. The SeaBee began selling well, and turned into a hit, with almost ten planes being sold every day.
A SeaBee that had been purchased by an American lawyer was donated to 'Aviron' - a private Israeli aviation company. It arrived disassembled, and was reassembled at Lod. However - the assembly was not carried out properly (the mechanics had no prior experience with this plane) and when Moddy Alon - commander of the First Combat Squadron - tried to land the SeaBee on water, the plane's landing floats broke.
From that day onwards, the SeaBee had to content itself with landing on terra firma. The IAF's lone SeaBee was destroyed in the Egyptian bombing of Sde Dov in northern Tel Aviv.

I have no one in the world to turn to. No one understands my pain. I have nothing to do, no way in which to make the time pass. I can't sleep at night. I usually stay up all night. And there is no reprieve, nothing I enjoy doing. No escape. Last night, staring at the dark ceiling--it was about 4 in the morning--I felt all the pain and aloneness build up. My only thought was "how can I get through my life". That's all I want is to be able to make the time pass as quickly and painlessly as possible. As it is, the hurt just mounts with each moment. I can't take it any more.
I try to talk to my mom. Usually I can rely on her, but she has been very tired lately. My dad said she is on the verge of a breakdown and she needs to rest so I can't talk to her. I feel like my dad makes me see the worst in myself. Never do I feel comfortable or accepted with him. I know that he tries but all he ever succeeds in making me feel is rejected, selfish, and a burden. I AM selfish, and that's why it hurts so much. It's true. It's my fault. I am probably projecting my feeling on him. But I cannot deal with my own selfishness and self-absorption. I don't know how to change and to focus on others. I try to help out at home but it's never enough. I feel guilty if I don't and I know whatever I do is not enough. I am still expected to do more, as if in some magical way that will make my parents love me more. Because all they've been talking about lately is how I need to help out, to help others. I who can barely get myself out of the bed in the morning. Don't they know that I am doing all I possibly can to just stay alive?
Everyone has always said that joy and happiness comes from serving others. I used to do that, not much, but some. And it never made me feel any happier. And what about when one physically, mentally cannot? What then? I'm just left feeling guilty and so awful—like scum. Because it seems self-worth only comes from doing, doing…DOING. There is not goodness in trying to get through the day. Deep down I know what they are saying is true, but I honestly feel spread so thin as it is. And like I said, each thing I do just makes me feel worse. Because it makes me realize that no matter how much I do, I will never earn their favor.
So I can't talk to my mom. Dad said to leave her alone. And I certainly cannot talk to my dad. He usually makes me feel worse. He has that very "fix-it, just DO it. Get BETTER!" attitude. It doesn't even help to talk to my mom if I could because she just says things like "maybe you could go and visit the kids that haven't been coming to church and teach them about God." Or,"happiness comes from helping others. Why don't you fold some clothes and try to help out more about home." Would if I could…even when every moment it haunts me knowing I SHOULD. I just want my life to end. I wish I had never been born. She doesn't get it. Or maybe she gets it better than I do and I just can't do it. In any case, the fault is certainly with me. With my weaknesses and limitations. I feel helpless to change any of those things. If I had cancer or some physical illness, maybe they would understand. But I think they just think I'm lazy (which I am), but there is also something quite invisible holding me back. Depression is silent and so confusing.
I don't know how to deal with this despair, this aloneness. I have turned to everyone I know—my parents, my siblings, God, my counselor, my psychiatrist. I already told you what my parents say, but it's rather laughable how the counselor and psychiatrist respond.
My counselor usually has either one of two responses. If I go in on a very low and depressed day (like today), she responds something like this:
Me: "I have nothing to do. Nothing to live for. I just feel so alone. I wish I had never been born."
Counselor: "Do you ever think of harming yourself?"
Me: "Yes. I think about it a lot. But I am too scared to do anything."
Counselor: "What do you think will help you get better, Audrey?"
Me: "I honestly don't know (to myself: if I knew I wouldn't be here!)"
Counselor: "That's a good answer. [pause] You know, I really think you will get better. You have so much going for you."
Me: "But how? When? What do I need to do?!? It seems like I've been feeling this way forever."
Counselor: "I'm sure it does feel that way. What time do you want to meet next week? I'll be out of town for a while so it will have to be later in the week…"
Or on a better week…
Me: "I still feel awful but I just try to stuff those thoughts down. Honestly, I just feel kind of numb to everything. I don't feel really, really low…just kind of blah."
Counselor: "Well, I think you're going to be just fine. Everybody has problem around your age. I really think you are mature… (she then goes into a five minute speech about how much I've grown up since when she previously worked with me a few years ago. She has repeated this speech about 23 times and I am running out of demure and modest responses.) …so how about we just meet every two weeks now instead of every week—but I'll be gone to Florida for a while so we might have to make it a little longer. Okay, time's up. I'll see you in a few weeks then."
And then the psychiatrist…
Psychiatrist: "Have you noticed any improvements with this medicine?"
Me: "No, it's hard to tell but I think I'm about the same. I just feel really down and have a hard time doing anything."
Psychiatrist (in a soft, slightly robotic voice): "Yeeeah."
Me: "I have no motivation and just have a hard time getting through the day."
Psychiatrist: "Yeeeah."
Me: "I just feel really low and am frustrated that nothing seems to be working."
Psychiatrist: "Yeeeah. [pause] Do you ever think of harming yourself?"
Me: "Yes, sometimes."
Psychiatrist: "Have you thought of signing up for some classes at the college?"
Me: "I wish I could, but I just can't concentrate."
Psychiatrist: "…because that would be good to get out a little."
Me: "I tried that but I had to quit because they were too hard."
Psychiatrist: "…and it would be good to meet some people. Yeeeah. Well let's try this new medicine/increase this dose…. [explains how the medicine works and how it is really a great formula that I should really see some symptomatic relief from, etc.]"
Me: "Well, okay, but it gets frustrating to keep trying all these medicines and have none of them work. This is the sixth one I've taken."
Psychiatrist: "Yeeeah. This one is really great, though [repeats previous speech about said medicine.]
It's hard to feel like I'm not connecting with ANYONE. And to have no one to turn to. Well, I have to go to Mass now. The readings this week are soooo long because of Palm Sunday. It's pretty much the whole Passion narrative. I feel bad saying this, but Mass is one of the hardest things for me. I just cannot concentrate and sit still. Today will be even worse. I have to go, though, so I better get ready. I do love God, it's just so hard.
"My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?
Why so far from my call for help, from my cries of anguish?
My God, I call by day, but you do not answer;
by night, but I have no relief."
–Psalm 22:2-3
(This was part of the readings at church today. It relates very much to how I am feeling.)

text: Colorado wildfires turn attention to Utah fire conditions Brian Carlson 06/12/2013 01:20 AM 06/12/2013 11:01 AM SALT LAKE CITY (ABC 4 Utah) - Wildfires are destroying homes in Colorado, and it's causing some to take a second look at Utah's fire conditions. SALT LAKE CITY (ABC 4 Utah) - Wildfires are destroying homes in Colorado, and it's causing some to take a second look at Utah's fire conditions. Right now a fast moving wildfire is burning up homes in Colorado."Law enforcement to be very honest is scrambing to get people out of there as we do searches," said an official in Colorado. Authorities are calling it the Black Forest Fire. It's burning near Colorado Springs. Officials said dry and windy conditions are quickly spreading the flames. It's forced crews to evacuate more than 2,500 homes. So far they no idea how many its destroyed."The challenge that we're facing right now is the lack of state and federal resources," said the Colorado official. Last year here in Utah more than 1400 fires burned nearly half a million acres throughout the state. This year, so far its been relatively quiet. But some believe that won't last long. "You know what's scary about his year's fire season, it's drier than last year, and last year we had one of the worst fire seasons in Utah history," said Curtis Ray, ABC 4 Utah Meteorologist. Ray said Utah's weather for past several weeks, isn't improving conditions."We've been very windy, very dry, very hot, really it's only a matter of time before either man or lightening starts a fire," said Ray. Once the tinder box is set, ABC 4 Utah is told historically 50% of the time lightening starts a fire, the other 50% of fires are caused by humans. --------Follow Brian Carlson on Twitter: @tv_briancarlson Copyright 2013 abc4.com Nexstar Broadcasting, All rights reserved.
