Sky Snake
Flexible blimps are bending the rules on UAV design.
- By Michael Klesius
- AirSpaceMag.com, December 18, 2009
Sanswire-TAO Corp.
The blimp—that bloated, egg-shaped thing that blocks out the sun at major public events—remains one of aviation's oddballs. Think Stay Puft Marshmallow Man in the movie Ghostbusters. And it's a high-maintenance oddball: lots of construction and operating costs relative to the few people it carries. No speed. Huge amounts of hangar space needed to shelter it when nasty weather arrives. How does this thing get work? Other than hoisting cameras above the Super Bowl for 10-second shots during TV commercial breaks, the blimp, or zeppelin as it's never called anymore, has been a caricature of itself for decades.
Leave it to the Germans to think, we can do a better blimp. TAO (Trans-Atmospheric Operations) Technologies GmbH, of Stuttgart, Germany, partnered a few years ago with the University of Stuttgart, and more recently with Ft. Lauderdale, Florida-based Sanswire Corporation (from the French "sans" for "without" paired with the English "wires") to develop and market a new kind of airship, the Stratellite—a smaller, more flexible, unmanned, autonomous blimp that may rewrite the books on the value of lighter-than-air vehicles.
The biggest plus for blimps is their time in the air, which can last days to weeks depending on whether they have people on board. Their biggest drawback is that when the wind blows hard from the side, they don't stay on course very well. And several thousand feet up, blimps encounter a lot of wind.
For a blimp driver trying to angle for a good camera shot of a football stadium, it's not a matter of life and death. For soldiers on the ground in Kandahar trying to maintain, say, a communications link to their supply base, or a video feed of insurgents across the valley, the stakes are higher.
Sanswire-TAO has done away with the rigid blimp design in favor of a flexible one, with segments linked like sausages inside a double-sleeve design. The vehicle looks like that hinged plastic toy snake you played with as a kid. As it undulates in the sky in a cross wind, it bleeds off the energy of the gusts, and stays on course or in place more efficiently.
"We focus strictly on being an eye in the sky—a very low-cost eye in the sky," says Daniel Erdberg, Sanswire-TAO vice president of operations. "It's not a complicated machine like a typical aircraft. Our [flight] duration exceeds anything on the market just due to design, to physics."
Made mainly of rip-stop nylon, the multiple-cell airship, still in the test phase, would come in a crate that can be unpacked by two soldiers and deployed in a matter of hours. The forward bladder is filled with helium, which gives the airship its buoyancy. The rest of the bladders are filled with a gaseous, combustible fuel that gets compressed before being fed into a one-cylinder, reciprocating engine mounted below the front section, which pulls the airship along at almost 40 miles an hour.
The company's current model, the STS-111, which is 111 feet long and 11 feet in diameter, can stay aloft for up to three days at altitudes between 10,000 feet and 30,000 feet. A larger version on the drawing board will go to 60,000 feet, where it will loiter for up to a month, with an expected top speed around 85 miles an hour. "At that altitude," says Erdberg, "the airship has a line-of-sight view over an area the size of Texas."
While research is moving ahead on how to get propeller-driven, airplane-type unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to stay aloft for weeks, months, or even years—mainly with light, durable solar cells that charge batteries by day to keep the propellers turning at night—Sanswire-TAO claims they're ready to fill a need now for more persistent UAV loitering where it's needed: mainly in the military, but also for homeland security, border patrol, environmental study, commercial telecommunications, and maritime needs.
"We said, 'Duration, duration, duration,' measured in weeks. That's what our soldiers need now," says Erdberg. Sanswire-TAO conducted their latest demonstration of their airship on December 17 and 18 in Stuttgart. "We've built about 30 prototypes and have flown them thousands of times," he says.
He claims that the cost of a Predator-class UAV is many times the cost of an airship of this kind. An STS-111 would run about $3 million to purchase, but only about $50 an hour to operate. "You crash a Predator, and that's a tremendous cost, somewhere between $12 million and $18 million a pop," says Erdberg. "Predators run around $2,000 an hour [to operate], and sometimes much more."
The Stratellite, the company's high-altitude vehicle, would find what Erdberg calls a "sweet spot" around 60,000 feet where it would experience the least amount of average wind. "Below and above that layer it's very windy," he says. "The idea," he continues, "is to mix a balloon with an airship. Without fuel, it just becomes a balloon."
Erdberg says that solar cell technology isn't as far along as it needs to be. One of many problems for solar cells operating at very high altitudes is overheating from the sun's powerful radiation. "We do believe that solar technology is the future," says Erdberg. He claims that the company is doing research in that area. "But our gas technology is ready today." In the second quarter of 2010, the company plans a public unveiling of their airships for two days at the Orlando Sanford International Airport.
"This is outside the box," Erdberg says. "You're taught something in school every day, but then this is something very different."

As a commercial pilot and one of the early investors in Sanswire, I still think this design and related technology makes a lot of sense! I, for one, will be in Orland for it's testing in Orlando if I know where and when!

We need to get this vehicle operational and in the field as soon as possible. With expanding operations in Afghanistan/Pakistan, and with the drug/illegal alien problems on our borders, this technology is available now and is more cost effective than alternative systems.

"the blimp, or zeppelin as it's never called anymore,..." Good reason for that is that they are two different types of airships!!! The blimp is non-rigid while the Zeppelin is a rigid airship

It's wonderfully affordable, even for countries like ours that are broke, and it's not the viability of the technology that concerns me. As a longtime Sanswire shareholder, it's Erdberg's historic inability to market anything the company does that is my primary concern.

"Their biggest drawback is that when the wind blows hard from the side, they don't stay on course very well."
"As it undulates in the sky in a cross wind, it bleeds off the energy of the gusts, and stays on course or in place more efficiently."
Looks like we are back in down-wind-turn country here!
"The forward bladder is filled with helium, which gives the airship its buoyancy."
So, what does the rest of it do: dangle down below?
"The rest of the bladders are filled with a gaseous, combustible fuel that gets…fed into [the] engine". And what happens to the bladder after that?

From the World War I aircraft spotter's guides:
Class "B" limp = became the word: BLIMP
Class "D" rigid = became the word: DIRIGIBLE
Zeppelin= A company in Germany- named for Airship Pioneer Count Ferdinand von Zepplin. Made lots of airships in that era.
There is a modern day Zeppelin company- http://www.zeppelinflug.de/
So yes- Zeppelins are back in style with the Zeppelin NT, now giving tour rides in Germany, and out of San Francisco.

The tired old carousel of LTA continues to revolve, on average once every twenty years or so. Is that an Aereon or a Megalifter? In a poor light a Skyship looks much like a Dynairship. Whatever virtues LTA once possessed have now been overtaken by the enrmous reduction in payload size and power consumption and the ready availability of uav's of all sizes, from Globalstar downwards, with which to deploy them. Time on station has been a red herring for years, the area to focus on being "on station" LTA has never been any good at this, a twenty knot headwind reduces your speed of advance by 40%, and is likely to result, if prolonged for anytime, in the vehicle being as likely to be found in Alabama as Afghanistan. In the trophosphere the situation gets worse!
The main attraction of LTA lies in the fact that those seeking investment in such crackpot schemes know that investors have no reliable database of what the build or r&d costs for such turkeys ought to be, it's rich picking time for the snake oil salesmen when an air ship project hits town. Luckily, the tired old carousel at DARPA and similar institutions revolves at about the same speed, whenever anybody at such government offices wants a little extra cash for themselves, why not flag up a new "Walrus" or "Skycat"? It like goldfish, a short attention span means you can re-introduce the same nonsense time and again and wait hopefully for the cheques to drop through the letterbox!
It is just possible that a conventional blimp of about 100 metres, approximately similar to a "K" class but with advanced glass cockpit and lightweight diesels, could make headway in the coastal surveillance/anti piracy field, but its a small r&d task, no money in it for the speculators you see.
I know what I am talking about, invest at your peril!

I stopped reading at "blimp, or zeppelin as it's never called anymore." A writer who doesn't have the inclination, time, or whatever to look up the difference on wikipedia before writing an article on the latest innovations in the field loses all credibility. What kind of journalist doesn't care enough to learn the tiniest bit of basic history about what they're writing about? The kind that just rewrites press releases without further investigation, probably.
@Jim: B-limp is folk etymology. Not true. (Also covered on wikipedia.)

Your doctor will want to check your progress at regular visits , especially during the first few weeks you take this medicine.
It is very important to follow carefully any instructions from your health care team about:
- Alcohol—Drinking alcohol may cause severe low blood sugar. Discuss this with your health care team.
- Other medicines—Do not take other medicines during the time you are taking acarbose unless they have been discussed with your doctor. This especially includes nonprescription medicines such as aspirin, and medicines for appetite control, asthma, colds, cough, hay fever, or sinus problems.
- Counseling—Other family members need to learn how to prevent side effects or help with side effects if they occur. Also, patients with diabetes may need special counseling about diabetes medicine dosing changes that might occur because of lifestyle changes, such as changes in exercise and diet. Furthermore, counseling on contraception and pregnancy may be needed because of the problems that can occur in patients with diabetes during pregnancy.
- Travel—Keep a recent prescription and your medical history with you. Be prepared for an emergency as you would normally. Make allowances for changing time zones and keep your meal times as close as possible to your usual meal times.
In case of emergency—There may be a time when you need emergency help for a problem caused by your diabetes. You need to be prepared for these emergencies. It is a good idea to wear a medical identification (ID) bracelet or neck chain at all times. Also, carry an ID card in your wallet or purse that says that you have diabetes and a list of all of your medicines.
Acarbose does not cause hypoglycemia (low blood sugar). However, low blood sugar can occur if you take acarbose with another type of diabetes medicine, delay or miss a meal or snack, exercise more than usual, drink alcohol, or cannot eat because of nausea or vomiting. Symptoms of low blood sugar must be treated before they lead to unconsciousness (passing out). Different people may feel different symptoms of low blood sugar. It is important that you learn which symptoms of low blood sugar you usually have so that you can treat it quickly.
Symptoms of low blood sugar include anxiety; behavior change similar to being drunk; blurred vision; cold sweats; confusion; cool, pale skin; difficulty in thinking; drowsiness; excessive hunger; fast heartbeat; headache (continuing); nausea; nervousness; nightmares; restless sleep; shakiness; slurred speech; or unusual tiredness or weakness.
If symptoms of low blood sugar occur, eat glucose tablets or gel or honey, or drink fruit juice to relieve the symptoms. Table sugar (sucrose) or regular (nondiet) soft drinks will not work. Also, check your blood for low blood sugar. Glucagon is used in emergency situations when severe symptoms such as seizures (convulsions) or unconsciousness occur. Have a glucagon kit available, along with a syringe and needle, and know how to use it. Members of your household also should know how to use it.
Hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) may occur if you do not take enough or skip a dose of your antidiabetic medicine, overeat or do not follow your meal plan, have a fever or infection, or do not exercise as much as usual.
Symptoms of high blood sugar include blurred vision; drowsiness; dry mouth; flushed, dry skin; fruit-like breath odor; increased urination; ketones in urine; loss of appetite; stomachache, nausea, or vomiting; tiredness; troubled breathing (rapid and deep); unconsciousness; or unusual thirst.
If symptoms of high blood sugar occur, check your blood sugar level and then call your doctor for instructions.

I just got my truck back from having 35 inch tires, they had to trim some of my front fenders. With my diablo, i can program my trans to the larger tires, it is just awesome!!!!!

The Bahamas celebrate a christmas called Junkanno on December 26th and January 1st. They also have a huge parade with hundreds of people dancing, music and really cool costumes. Participants are put into a group with up to 1000 people. Who come up with their own theme and decorations competing for prizes such as money. The costumes are an absolute secret and the groups usually spend a year getting the supplies. They celebrate Junkanno because Caribbean slaves were given several days off to spend Christmas with their families.

Creamed corn out of the can wasn't the worst thing on the Thanksgiving table for some employees of TriHealth, a health concern that operates hospitals and doctors' groups in Cincinnati. The 150 workers received termination notices on their way out the door for the holiday for failure to get flu shots the company requires for its 10,800 employees. Other than the initial prick, the condition seemed pretty painless: the shots were free and had been available since Oct. 1. Now the dismissed workers can appeal for reinstatement, as long as they face the needle by Dec. 3. Remember, folks, it's even less fun to be unemployed when you're sick. [Source]

Excellent compilation that covers alla the main action coming out of the great Australian underground imprint Breakdance The Dawn, most associated with XNoBBQX. Compiled by Jon Dale. Features Yr Intestines, Mac Tempel, Mosweintraub Band, XNoBBQX, Stasis Duo, The Minerals, DJ White Pimpernell, James Heighway, Nylstoch, The White Petunias, Impromptulons, Muura, Seventh Sister, Antipan, Tofutron and X Wave.
Limited edition fanzine produced by Black Petal and A Binary Datum featuring art by Joshua Burkett, Matt Earle (Breakdance The Dawn/Craft Bandits/xNoBBQx et al) and Daniel Lebow, photos by Daniel Lebow, photos by Clint Morgan, poetry by Ian-John Hutchinson, a review of the Japanesse curry house run by Pirako and Kageo of Suishou No Fune (!), an interview with Tetuzi Akiyama, a short story by Jienko Kurosato and a review of Takahiro Hirama's 'Thr Eat Rhy Thm' CD-R. Packaged in the usual exquisite Black Petal style, handbound with string with an obi strip and fold-out pages. Each copy comes with an original A4 lithograph by Joshua Burkett.
Staggering blast of a-formal rock confusion from one of the first group's to articulate the NON-aesthetic of the whole Breakdance The Dawn scene, contemporaries of xNoBBQx, Your Intestines and Mosseisley. Antipan featured Matt Earle on guitar, Nick Dan on vocals and bass, Anthony Guerra on drums and Sumugan Sivanesan on guitar. Antipan have a scratchy, devolved guitar band sound that's somewhere between the stumbling early Rough Trade style, the absolute refusal of No Wave and a disjointed Magic Band and this captures them live at Club Consolador De Dos Caras in December of 2008. There are primitive echoes of free jazz and even stomping two-chord blues but Antipan play the kind of blues more associated with Corwood Industries, wrapped in barbed wire and tuned to the moon. Pretty fantastic. Comes with an original photograph of the group rocking the bandstand and exposed to firelight by Guerra. Recommended.
More supremely disobedient a-formal destructo rock from the sainted Breakdance The Dawn cabal, this time it's Antipan minus one member, hence the name-change. Here we have Matt Earle (Breakdance/Muura/Craft Bandits/you name it) on guitar, Anthony Guerra (Black Petal et al) on drums and Nick Dan on bass and vocals. Recorded live at Echo in Shibuya, Tokyo in 2010 by Earle, this may be the wildest side of Antipan music to date with a bass that sounds like a huge electrified rubber band, a guitar that combines crude single-note Blues stomps with cranky Rudolph Grey-isms and drums that mix the detonating style of Rashied Ali with the caveman ugh of yr favourite pluke. Tracks are held together with the flimsiest of refusenik logic, with Guerra keeping it martial even when the strings are expiring in gasps of tortuous feedback. Think early Royal Trux via The Shaggs via Kito Mizukumi Rouber and spin it next to your favourite 'punk' 7 for an eye-opening lesson in total musical freedom. Impossibly great, with the usual beautiful packaging from Black Petal.
Massive two-header that upgrades a pair of killer sides from Australia's sainted Breakdance The Dawn cabal, finally making vinyl editions available of some of the most supremely out rock/roll cut anywhere on the planet circa now: Girls Girls Girls is the amazing Brisbane based trio of Matt Earle of Craft Bandits/xNoBBQx etc on drums and electronics, Adam Park of Sprot on bass and Rohan Holiday of Kitten Party/Teen Sex on guitar. Together they play a radically dilated form of avant garage with creepy, minimal guitar lines over questing, brokedown bass and staggered rhythms. Some massively crankled motorik almost-grooves on this one, if you can imagine the Corwood recording that never came out on Flying Nun then you're at least close but even more distressed, with single notes creeping along the fretboard like a narcoleptic Magic Band or early Royal Trux while the bass blows feedback at the drums and Earle falls down the stairs in slow motion. This is fractured avant blues at some kind of non-musicianly apex. As Matt Earle puts it: "together we are great like the gentlemen of Brisbane underground rock 'n' roll... there's all these girl bands here at the moment and they're all great but they won't let us jam with them so we started our own." Edition of only 250 copies in silkscreened sleeves, highly recommended! X Wave take a more martial approach to punk/rock, coming over like The Afflicted Man playing Spacemen 3's "Losing Touch With My Mind" while making with massively thuggish/F/X drenched jams that give the nod to Japan's Minor scene (Rotting Telepathies/Gasaneta et al) while they attempt to rip "Teenage Kicks" from the hands of The Undertones with nothing but a buncha wrong notes. Indeed, this feels closer to the original breakout rock/roll urge than any generic pretender, freaking with it in an intuitive high-energy style that has few parallels. If your idea of 'the canon' has more to do with Harry Pussy, Arthur Doyle, The Shaggs and Mars than some longhair weeping into his soundhole then this is where you plug in. Breakdance The Dawn has been the secret underground rock label of the past goddamn decade and it's only now that the rest of the world is catching up. So don't be a goddamn dweeb: this is rock 'n' roll. Edition of only 250 copies in silkscreened sleeves, highly recommended!
New primitive 'techno' outfit from Matt Earle (Breakdance/Craft Bandits/xNoBBQx et al) and Nicola Morton (Wardenburger): minimalist throbbing electro-threat in the tradition of Vanity Records, Two Daughters, John Fothergill's United Dairies of-shoot etc with automatic/modulated female vocals over druggy keyboard feedback and waves of lapping electricity: "our synth and drum machines were under water for three days in the Brisbane floods, they were given to us to prevent us from self harming. It gave them a unique sound. Wet, dirty and about to set the building on fire." – Matt Earle. Another singular Breakdance release.
Great set of electric ritual/blurry drone rock from the Australian trio of Matt Earle (Breakdance/xNoBBQx/Craft Bandits et al), Rory Brown and Adam Sussmann (2779/Emotional About The Rainbow et al): Matt describes this one as sounding "like Miles Davis wit da Skaters in the blue mountains" and that's pretty spot on, with the kind of expiring brass that illuminated Heathen Earth situated in the kind of drone torrents more commonly associated with the Invasion Of Thunderbolt Pagoda. The ululating percussion is particularly hypnotic as is the smoky production style, with a John Godbert-era Vibracathedral Orchestra feel given that classic edge-of-the-world Breakdance production style.

TROY - A balloon was released into the dark sky above Troy Friday night - for each child and teacher who lost their life one week ago.
"This wasn't just a tragedy where people were lost and kids were killed. They had names - they were somebody's son daughter, somebody's parent," said vigil organizer Jim Gordon.
A sentiment that wasn't lost on any parent or grandparent here.
"I cannot even imagine the anguish that community is going through and my heart goes out to them," said Mickey Warner of Troy.
At a time of the year we're so preoccupied with the hustle and bustle of the season, Warner stood close and still with her daughter and three and a half year old grandson Julian - mourning the Newtown tragedy together.
As candles flickered in the cold breeze and people gathered close together, there was a feeling of calm.
"When you have people of all walks of life, in a public place praying together, really warrants the heart and gives a sense of peace," said Father John Kelly of Trinity Church.

Heat Shrink Tubing, High Temperature Shrink Tube, & Heat Guns
What is heat shrink tubing?
Heat shrink tubing is expanded, extruded plastic tubing that is designed to shrink when heated. This tubing can be used to provide sealing, termination, identification, insulation, and strain relief for cables. Though commonly made from polyolefin, special applications may call for tubing made from neoprene, PVDF, PTFE, FEP, or Viton®.
Choosing the Proper Heat Shrink for Your Application
Heat shrink has many uses in electrical, electronic, telecommunications, cable management, and virtually all other industries, so there are many varieties to meet these needs. For labeling lightly used unexposed applications, cheap heat shrink makes a great economical solution. For various automotive and aerospace/military wiring, selections range from general purpose to high temperature. In moist, dusty, or direct burial uses that require a tight seal, adhesive-lined tubing is available in all ratios and many sizes.
Choosing the proper ratio is just as important as choosing the correct material. Shrink ratio refers how many times smaller the cable will be after shrinking. For example, 3:1 will shrink to 1/3 of its original size, and so on. For most termination or cable labeling applications 2:1 is the standard. The larger your connector [or other obstruction] is in relation to your cable, the higher the ratio you will need. This will allow the tubing to be installed over the connector while preventing loose ends on the cable.
Applying Heat Shrink
The most common method for shrinking tube is the heat gun. Heat guns range from moderate heat, fixed temperature versions for general use to variable temperature models with digital readouts. The higher the degree of adjustability, the wider the range of temperature, the more types of tubing that particular gun will accurately shrink.
Another common tool is the heat shrink oven. Though more costly than the heat shrink gun, the oven has many advantages and is often a more feasible option for larger operations in the long run. Firstly, the tube is placed entirely into the oven, creating the most even and accurate shrink possible. Since the oven remains in a fixed position and is triggered by foot, it also has a significant ergonomic advantage over the gun. Heat shrink ovens also use need much less energy to run than guns, so they pay for themselves over time in manufacturing and other high volume operations.
Despite our massive selection of tubing, we realize that material alone won't get the job done. We also have the cabling, heat shrink guns, termination tools, connectors you need to take your project from start to finish.

What makes it so simple is that she started with a thrifted skirt (size 9 month) and sized it down to fit the doll. This would work with any hemmed garment roughly the …
Starry Embroidery Pattern
by Connie Barwick
Imaginesque patterns are usually free form and you can use them for most anything so I like to use my imagination for what they will be useful for when stitched up. When I saw this one, I immediately thought of it stitched in gold flosses with some metallic gold thrown in and worked up as a topper for a Christmas …

Over at Chez Mamigoz the turtles have been taking over lately. The latest post includes an entire grouping of them and if you scroll back through past posts you will find some more single turtles.

Tutorial: Cuddle fabric turtle footstool
by Anne Weaver
Cheryl from Sew Can Do rehabbed an old turtle footstool from her childhood into a softer, more modern version. The original was far too worn and ripped to repair, so she made an entirely new cover out of Cuddle fabric. Cute!! She shares a tutorial showing how she did it. You probably don't have an old turtle footstool in your basement …

The following information is very important. Please read this entire page, and then print or bookmark to keep it as a reference. It covers the following topics:
The Housing Lottery is IWU's Residence Hall Selection Process. It receives this name due to the process we undergo to provide students with their room selection order.Once the fall registration process is complete, ORL staff place all registered students into tiers based on credit hours. Once students have been placed in their tiers, a number is randomly assigned to each student. So, if there are 100 seniors in Tier 1, each student has an equal chance of receiving #1 to #100. See "Assigning students a specified time to chose a room" below for details on each tier.
Housing Lottery Numbers are not provided to students.
Students at Illinois Wesleyan University choose rooms in an order determined by the number of class units earned, assuring that senior students have the opportunity for the best campus placements. This is because some of our facilities are more highly desirable than others. Using an ordered process gives all students at a similar class and credit-hour level the same chance at each type of housing available on campus. Students within each credit-hour range are assigned a time to choose space randomly so that every person has the same chance of choosing first or choosing last within the credit-hour range. The following chart shows the class tier, and the corresponding credit-hour levels; specified times will be noted after they are assigned following the online housing registration process:
Class tier | Credit-hour range | Estimated times range (update on 3/31/13) |
Senior Tier I | 22.25 or more | TBD |
Senior Tier II | 19.00 - 22.24 | TBD |
Senior Overflow | 19.00 or more | TBD |
Junior Tier I | 13.25 - 18.99 | TBD |
Junior Tier II | 10.00 - 13.24 | TBD |
Junior Overflow | 10.00 - 18.99 | TBD |
Sophomore Tier I | 4.25 - 9.99 | TBD |
Sophomore Tier II | 2.00 - 4.24 | TBD |
Sophomore Overflow | 2.00 - 9.99 | TBD |
Advanced Freshman | 0.00 - 1.99 | TBD |
Late Registration | TBD |
AP Credits are not recorded by December, and therefore are not included in unit counts for first-year students. Specified time blocks and a selection order within each block are assigned randomly by computer under the supervision of the Office of Residential Life after all registrations have been collected at the start of Spring Break. You will receive notification of your specified housing selection time by email before you arrive back from Spring Break. Your specified housing selection time is recorded with your name; times cannot be traded or given away.You will use the earliest specified time possible to select your room.
If you are selecting with a roommate or group of roommates, the earliest time in the group is used for the entire group. So, if Chris (3/30 at 7:25 PM) and Pat (3/28 at 4:10 PM) are trying for a room together, Pat's time would be the one they would use because it is the earliest and would give them the best possible chance of getting the room they want.
Students sign up for rooms at specified times over the span of up to four evenings. The first day is Tuesday, April 2nd and selection will continue until all registered students have had an opportunity to participate. In 10 minute time intervals, from 3pm - 8pm daily, students will be allotted time to select from available, gender appropriate spaces.
Utilizing the MyHousing portal, students do not report to any specific place to register for housing. Any computer with an internet connect will all students access to register for housing. Students will want to make sure they know their best available time and plan to be together in the same room as roommate pairs, just in case your first choice is unavailable.
A simple application of mathematics will show us it's not possible for everyone who wants a single room to have a single room. Students with the highest number of credit-hours have the earliest (best) specified times. This means that seniors and juniors will have first shot at the most desirable rooms on campus. Everyone can't live in a single or a suite. Be realistic when you are planning for where you want to live. You may not get the type of room you desire most, although you will be housed. Most sophomores will live with a roommate in a double room. Most sophomores will not be housed in preferential halls (Harriett or Magill for instance).
On the last night of the selection process, there may be a handful of rising sophomores (those with the latest specified times) that will be unable to be placed into a room. This is expected--we know that a number of students will sign up for a room and then later decide that they will not be using the room which they have been placed in (because they are transferring, withdrawing, moving off-campus, etc.). Because you have not been assigned a room during the initial placement process does not mean that residence hall spaces will be unavailable to you. Students who cannot be housed on the final night will be able to sign up for a waiting list. At the time that a room opens up, they will be placed in a residence hall space with the roommate of their choice.
There are lots of good reasons why people don't have roommates. Students who do not have a roommate, or enough roommates to fill a multiple-occupancy room (suites, for instance) can log into MyHousing and review potential roommate preferences. This will allow you to email and interact with potential roommates, avoiding being randomly assigned to a roommate. If you do not want to participate in this online matching, be sure to log into MyHousing and set your personal profile to private. With the advances in online selection, we are no longer hosting "Find a Roommate Night."
Outside of a Martin super-single, you cannot sign up for a multiple-occupancy room during the Housing Lottery without a roommate. If you do not have a roommate at your specified time block, you will be consolidated (put in a double room) on the spot with the next person who selects a space without a roommate.
Before single rooms placements are made from early applications, students who have a medical or mental health need are considered. Housing accommodations are granted to students who provide appropriate medical documentation supporting the need for said accommodation. Decisions are made through the Office of Residential Life in consultation, as necessary, with the Arnold Health Service or Counseling and Consultation Services. The documentation criteria can be found on the Housing Accommodations page. Once the March 1st deadline passes, requests for housing accommodations will be granted when space is available.
Our mission is facilitating enjoyable, sustainable and inclusive communities that support and enhance students' academic achievement and personal development.

It's fairly easy to use for our almost 3yr old. He always tries to ride his big brother's razor scooter. This little one is perfct for learning how to ride it's works well inside on our hard surfaces as well as outside and the fact that it doesn't have any characters is super cool to a little one with a "cool big bro" bc it looks just like a big kid one rather then kiddie like.

Overall scooter is great. Though scooter is suggested for over 3, I purchased for my son who is almost 2 1/2. Overall he loves it. Got on it the day it arrived and was immediately scooting around our home. My only negative comment is about the double weels in the back and the single wheel in the front. Although the single wheel in the front makes steering easier, the double wheel in the back sticks out from the platform and can be cumbersome as he is pushing himself on the scooter. This might not be an issue when he is a little older. If purchasing again, I might go for a scooter that has the 2 wheels in front.

Comments about Razor Jr. Kiddie Kick Scooter - Blue:
My 3 yr.old grandson was very excited to see this scooter for his birthday. So had to do alot of walking with both my grand children, they both were just thrilled with there scooters. This scooter was a little more involved in putting together. But all went together. Colton was sturdy on this scooter, still learning how to steer.

Disagree with age range

About Me Leisure Rider
Great design. My youngest got this for his 3rd birthday. By age 4 he had physically outgrown it. A tad disappointed in the length of the foot bed; its too short for my 4 y/o's feet and he's average size. Product description reads ages 3 - 5, but I say its built more for ages 2 and 3. Still a good product.
