I've spent some time sifting through the attached numbers. Though not each lends itself to hp Itanium 2, there appears to be a very balanced trend. For clusters, scale down the hp rx2600 to the rx1600 dual CPU with fewer PCI-X slots, comparable performance, HP-UX/linux/OVMS, in box upgrades, excellent services, and education price under $3,000. I'm at a loss as to why there is not a great deal more conversation around these systems. hptc clusters should lend themselves to easy additions and upgrades. An investment in Pentuim, SPARC, Athlon, or Opteron yesterday, should easily include G5, Itanuim 2 or futures toward cluster enhancements. From the attachments, it looks to me as though the Itanium 2 numbers are (at least) compelling, with a long term commitment to the hardware technology as well as the operating systems.

AMARILLO, TEXAS -- Over two hundred cyclists gathered Saturday at West Texas A&M University to kick off this year's Bike MS Ride around the Rim fundraiser.
"This is our 26th year. Bike MS is the largest fundraising event for the National MS Society in the Texas Panhandle," said April Brownlee, the senior development manager for National MS Society." We have over 100 Bike MS events across the country."
Although funds have not been calculated, Brownlee says their goal is to raise $130,000 this weekend. National MS Society will continue fundraising for the next 30 days.
There are about 800 people in the Texas Panhandle with MS, according to Brownlee.
Saturday was Day 1 of the two day ride where cyclists rode 104.8 miles. Cyclists will finish the last 25.8 miles of the ride Sunday.

CHARLOTTESVILLE - Michael Rocco took his benching in stride, then returned and left no doubt that he's Virginia's quarterback.
The junior hit Jake McGee on a 6-yard touchdown pass with 1:28 to play Saturday, giving Virginia a 17-16 lead against Penn State that held up when Nittany Lions kicker Sam Ficken's missed his fourth field goal of the game - from 42 yards.
"We stubbed our foot a couple times with penalties and we had big plays," Rocco said of the winning drive, which chewed 6:36 off the clock and covered 86 yards. "It was just like a roller coaster drive, but we all kept our composure when we needed to. I give all the credit to the playmakers and our receivers and running backs and Jake McGee making great plays."
McGee and Rocco teamed up for two - the first a 44-yard completion to convert a third-and-16 from Virginia's 22. The converted quarterback finished with four catches for 99 yards, and the touchdown was the first of his career.
"We have a good connection right now and he's making plays and it's really exciting," Rocco said.
And McGee is only getting better.
"He's worked very hard at it," offensive coordinator Bill Lazor said of the 6-foot-5 sophomore, possibly the team's best deep threat. "He's very talented guy. He makes those catches all the time in practice. We know now we can count on him."
McGee, part of a deep rotation at tight end, was excited to have such a big role.
"I was fired up and trying to get some more points on the board," he said of the third-down catch. "Rocco scrambled out of the pocket, he put it up, and I somehow came down with it. I don't know how I came down with it, but it stuck."
Virginia (2-0) badly wanted to win, especially facing back-to-back road games against Georgia Tech and No. 20 TCU, and did it even though Penn State (0-2) stymied the Cavaliers' offense for much of the day. Virginia had four turnovers, including an interception and fumble by Rocco, and then a fumble by backup Phillip Sims, who played two series. But Penn State turned them into just three points.
If not for the Jerry Sandusky sex abuse scandal that led the NCAA to hit Penn State hard with sanctions, including a four-year bowl ban and the chance for its players to transfer without penalty, the Nittany Lions might have won easily. Among the departures: placekicker Anthony Fera, who made 14 of 17 field goals last season. He went to Texas.
But the Nittany Lions still almost overcame the miscues, turning to their old standby of punishing defense. At least until the final drive. Virginia finished with just 32 yards on 25 carries and 295 yards in all, but converted 9 of 15 third down tries.
"I think we're resilient," linebacker Steve Greer said of stopping those drives. "We did some of that last season and I think every part of our program is geared towards that. No matter what, we're no easy out."
It also gave the Nittany Lions a 16-10 lead - Ficken also had an extra point try blocked - and then Rocco went to work.
After Virginia scored, Matt McGloin drove Penn State from its 27 to the Cavaliers 22, and took a knee to center the ball with one second left, but with rain falling, Ficken's kick sailed wide left and the crowd erupted in stunned glee.
Virginia center Luke Bowanko found it hard to watch Ficken's last attempt.
"Whoever turned the rain machine on, thanks," he said. "It's almost at that point you did all you can do."

Store > Shop By Brand > akabill amulets > ikaika wahine and hauoli nui loa
This unique akabill amulet, ikaika wahine, celebrates the power of woman (mana wahine), which Hawaiian mythology says is a force that should not be ignored. The ikaika wahine is the warrior woman, full of strength and able to take on any challenge. Wear it for luck or give it to a strong woman you know!
The hau'oli nui loa is another unique figure from akabill. It has different meanings for everyone. Literally, it means "way too happy." The idea is to capture the exuberance of life, maybe from running or just from doing things that make you way too happy.

As the best TV grows in consistency, depth, and prestige, its a familiar leap to apply the metaphor of literature to the most acclaimed shows.
Collected as DVD box sets, scripted TV series line shelves like fat Victorian novels. Critics and academics compare "The Wire," with its social conscience and scope, to Charles Dickens. Top colleges offer full-semester courses on "The Simpsons," "Mad Men," "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," "The Sopranos," and "South Park," analyzing them as mirrors of human nature, time capsules, and multilayered, allusive narratives. And countless others online recap and deconstruct every episode of their favorite shows with a scholarly passion that can border on pedantry.
Cruise the Internet after a new hour of AMCs "Breaking Bad," which returns Sunday night for the first half of its final 16-episode season, and youll be auditing an unofficial class — "Walter White and Post-Millennial Anti-Heroism," say, or "Fear as the Fuel of Power on 'Breaking Bad. " The breakdowns of "Mad Men" you find online sometimes go as deeply into Americas cultural evolution as any university press book about the work of Theodore Dreiser; they also offer an anti-nostalgic review of the 1960s.

SYRACUSE -- Police in Ithaca are searching for suspects after a fast-food restaurant was robbed Tuesday night.
According to the Ithaca Police Department, around 9:00 p.m. officers were called to the McDonald's on Elmira Road for a report of a robbery. When police arrived they were told that a man entered the restaurant, walked behind the counter, confronted employees, and demanded money while displaying what appeared to be a gun concealed in a bag. Police say the suspect took an undisclosed amount of cash before fleeing in a vehicle that was waiting outside.
The suspect is described as a large white, standing around six feet tall and weighing more than 250 pounds. He was reportedly wearing a black zip-up hooded sweatshirt, dark sunglasses, and a purple bandana over his mouth and nose. The getaway car is described as a mid-size SUV, possibly a Jeep.
No injuries were reported.
Police say an investigation is underway. Anyone with any information is asked to call the Ithaca Police Department at 607-272-9973 or their tip line at 607-697-0333.

The big question is why can we not somehow end our culture's addiction to keeping cats as pets? Or at least find a way to ensure they and their owners (servants, staff?) are not infected. Isn't there a hue and a cry whenever any other popular part of our culture (for example, tobacco, trans fats) poses a significant health risk? How is it that cats are somehow immune to criticism but Toxoplasma gondii is not?

Date: April 1969
Source: Kent State Students for a Democratic Society. "Now is the Time of the Furnaces, And Only Light Should be Seen." Michigan State Special Collections, Students for Democratic Society ARVF.
About the Organization: The Kent State Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) was part of the larger SDS, a radical student movement across the United States. Mark Rudd, the president of the Columbia University SDS, visited the Kent State University campus in 1968. Soon after Rudd's visit, the chapter joined with other militant groups on campus to stage protests. Kent State's SDS became more violent than many chapters due to the affiliation with leaders who later became part of the Weathermen.
Students for a Democratic Society reorganized in 1962 when leaders met in Port Huron, Michigan. They developed the Port Huron Statement, which provided a manifesto for chapters across the country. Kent State University, located in northeast Ohio, was a large regional college. Irwin Unger writes that Kent State "was no more implicated in capitalist misdeeds of Vietnam than five hundred other college campuses." Still, the student radicals at KSU became more militant than on...

Pedagogy of the Oppressed
Nonfiction work
By: Paulo Freire
Date: 1970
Source: Freire, Paulo. Pedagogy of the Oppressed. New York: Continuum, 1992, 57–64.
About the Author: Paulo Freire (1921–1997), born in Brazil, was an educator who developed literacy programs throughout the world. His work concentrated on freedom and democracy for all people. Following his exile from Brazil in 1964, he worked in Chile. Later he taught at Harvard University in the Center for Studies in Education and Development.
In 1962 Freire taught 300 rural farm workers in Brazil to read and write in 45 days. He taught them the meanings of words that impacted daily living. The people were able to change their lives politically and socially as their reading and writing skills developed; no longer would they live in what Freire called a "culture of silence." This began Freire's approach to literacy training not only for peasants, but for all people who could not read or write. Freire was jailed, and later exiled from Brazil, for these efforts to teach people to read.
Paulo Freire first visited the United States in 1969–1970. Educators were attracted to his methods of teaching literacy, particularly to adult learners. There were divisions in...

"Rethinking Black History"
Journal article
By: Orlando Patterson
Date: 1971
Source: Patterson, Orlando. "Rethinking Black History." Harvard Educational Review 41, no. 3, 1971, 299–304.
About the Author: Orlando Patterson (1940–) is the John Cowles Professor of Sociology at Harvard University. Patterson was born in Jamaica and moved to the United States in 1970. He has made important scholarly contributions to the study of slavery and ethnicity. Patterson also wrote three novels and several short stories.
Beginning in the 1950s, there was an interest for black history to be written and included in the curriculum. The Civil Rights era in the 1960s increased the quest for knowledge of the past—people needed to define themselves and their historical struggles. Students demanded courses in black history. Early attempts to comply with this request followed the "great man tradition," much like white history. That is, great male figures from black history were presented, written about, and discussed. This has changed. Now historians place more emphasis on primary documents such as oral histories, diaries, and letters and other first-hand accounts of the past.
Orlando Patterson describes five ways that academics have...

About the Authors: Miriam and Walter Schneir are journalists who write about history and education. In 1965 they coauthored the book, Invitation to an Inquest: A New Look at the Rosenberg-Sobell Case.
The Open Classroom Reader, edited by Charles Silberman, offers a collection of essays on the theories and practices of the open classroom in America. Grounded in an English tradition, the open classroom was one of the experimental programs of the 1970s and 1980s.
Silberman is a critic of the traditional classroom with straight rows and the teacher in the front of the class. He calls this a joyless place to learn. His previous work, Crisis in the Classroom, challenged failures he saw in American education. As a reformer, Silberman prefers the informal classroom, referred to as "open education" or the "open classroom." The open classroom is...

"Busing—The Supreme Court Goes North"
Magazine article
By: Christopher Jencks
Date: 1972
Source: Jencks, Christopher. "Busing—The Supreme Court Goes North." The New York Times Magazine, November 19, 1972, 41, 118.
About the Author: Christopher "Sandy" Jencks (1936–) is the Malcolm Wiener Professor of Social Policy at Harvard University. He was educated at Harvard and the London School of Economics and Political Science. Jencks's research deals with the inequality in the standard of living over the past generation.
Numerous cases regarding desegregation of schools made their way to the Supreme Court in addition to the 1954 decision in Brown v. The Board of Education of Topeka. That decision, sometimes referred to as Brown I, stated that state-imposed segregated schools were unequal and illegal. The Brown I decision set the path for integration in the schools in the southern United States, but not without much turmoil and controversy. Brown II, in 1955, tried to define how and when the schools would be desegregated across the country. The court did not take a strong stand on a time line, however. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 furthered the movement of eliminating inequality, not only in the schools, but in work, housing,...

Writing Without Teachers

About the Author: Peter Elbow (1935–) is an Emeritus Professor of English at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. He directed the writing program there between 1996 and 2000. Everyone Can Write: Essays toward a Hopeful Theory of Writing won the James Britton Award in 2002. In 2001 the National Council Teachers of English awarded Peter Elbow the James Squire Award for his transforming influence on the profession.
During the late 1960s and 1970s, a method of teaching writing labeled expressivism developed. This kind of writing provided power to the student or writer, rather than just to the teacher. Expressivism opposed the traditional methods of teaching writing, which emphasized academic forms, five-paragraph themes, and standard forms of "correct" grammar. Donald Murray, Ken Macrorie, and Peter Elbow were all part of this movement.
Donald Murray's A Writer Teaches Writing (1968), Ken Macrorie's Telling Writing (1970), and Peter Elbow's Writing Without Teachers (1973) were cornerstones for the process of...

The Higher Education Act of 1965 (Public Law 89-329) provided insured student loans for eligible college students.

"Open Admissions and Equal Access: A Study of Ethnic Groups in the City University of New York"

Date: February 1979
Source: Lavin, David E. et al." Open Admissions and Equal Access: A Study of Ethnic Groups in the City University of New York." Harvard Educational Review 49, no. 1, February 1979, 53–57.
About the Author: David Lavin is a professor of Sociology at the Graduate School of the City University of New York. He has studied sociology of education and issues involving social inequality in education. Lavin has written a number of articles and books on the open admissions policies at CUNY.
Colleges and universities adopted open admissions policies in the 1970s to increase minority enrollment. The policy of the seventeen-campus City University of New York (CUNY) system has been studied since it began in 1970. Criticized by many for opening the doors of the university to unqualified students, the system had to justify why they were doing this and how it was working. The policy was implemented after student protests in 1969 demanding admission of more minority students. Until the 1970s, the CUNY system was primarily composed of white students. The protest focused on City College in particular because of its location in Harlem.

By: Florence Howe
Date: 1979
Source: Howe, Florence. "Introduction: The First Decade of Women's Studies." Harvard Educational Review 49, no. 4, November 1979, 413–421.
About the Author: Florence Howe (1929–) has been an advocate for women's voices and for educational and social reform. She served as the President of the Modern Language Association in 1973. In 1970, Howe founded the Feminist Press, a non-profit publisher and the oldest press dedicated to works by and about women.
Following a decade of the Civil Rights Movement and the Women's Movement, women's studies programs and courses began appearing in colleges across the country. This demand for courses in women's studies matched the demand for courses in other specialty areas. The 1970s was an era of progress for curricular change and development in women's studies. "Lost" women writers began being discovered and published, allowing women and men to read the works of women along with the canonical works of men.
Organizations and journals were founded to support the women's studies movement. The Feminist Press began in 1970 in New York City. Devoted to publishing women's work, the press was a leader as an independent...

Source: "An Interview on Title IX with Shirley Chisholm, Holly Knox, Leslie R. Wolfe, Cynthia G. Brown, and Mary Kaaren Jolly." Harvard Educational Review 49, no.4, November 1979, 504–508, 519.
About the Publication: The Harvard Educational Review is a leading journal in the field of education. Its mission is to provide an interdisciplinary forum for discussion and debate about education's most vital issues. A quarterly publication, the HER presents opinions and research articles.
Equity for women as well as for African Americans was a goal during the Civil Rights era. Title IX, instituted by the Federal Government in 1972, is part of an affirmative action program. It prohibits discrimination based on sex in elementary and secondary schools and on college and university campuses. Although it is commonly associated with equality in sports, Title IX is about much more than athletics. It "guarantees equal access for women in the academic world and in athletics."
The editors of the Harvard Educational Review interviewed five women who were important in women's issues and in the implementation of Title IX:...

"The Frenetic Fanatic Phonic Backlash"
Journal article
By: Maryann Eeds-Kniep
Date: November/December 1979
Source: Eeds-Kniep, Maryann. "The Frenetic Fanatic Phonic Backlash." Language Arts 56, no. 8, November/December 1979, 909–911.
The debate about how to teach reading has been long and hard-fought. On one side are those who believe that teaching phonics should be the basic method for teaching young children to read. On the other side are those who believe in "whole language" teaching, or in using books to teach rather than breaking language into small bits. Maryann Eeds-Kniep finds value in both methods, depending on the situation and the student.
Eeds-Kniep's article addresses the question of how children learn language. Do they learn sounds and then words? Or do they learn whole words and recognize them as distinct units? This has been the focus of the "reading wars," as they are often called. Eeds-Kniep also mentions that it can be difficult to know what the child knows when he comes to school. What kind of training or knowledge does a child already possess? Is the child ready to learn to read, or is he already reading?
Kniep writes that "no matter what reading program we use, and sometimes in spite of them, a good majority of our...

"Some Characteristics of the Historically Black Colleges"
By: Robert Clayton
Date: 1979
Source: Clayton, Robert. "Some Characteristics of the Historically Black Colleges." No publisher. Available online at http://newfirstsearch.oclc.org. ERIC ED 176651. 1979. (accessed October 3, 2002). The Educational Resource Information Center (ERIC) is a clearinghouse of papers and research on topics of interest to educators, including both published and previously unpublished material.
Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) have over a 150-year history in the United States. The first colleges were opened before the Civil War by abolitionists. As the century progressed, and particularly after the Civil War, more HBCUs were founded. Many of these were affiliated with religious groups that saw the need for institutions of higher education for African Americans. When legislation calling for desegregation became law in the 1950s and 1960s, some feared that HBCUs would close. They did not. In fact, they were strengthened in the ensuing decades by support of students who selected the colleges and by the federal government programs. In 2003 there are approximately 106 Historically Black Colleges and Universities across the United States.

About the Organization: Eastern District of Michigan Southern District is part of the United States Court System. District Courts are trial courts and rule on nearly all categories of federal civil and criminal cases.
The case regarding teaching children who spoke black English was filed in U.S. District Court against the Ann Arbor School District in 1977. The plaintiffs in the suit were "fifteen black preschool or elementary school children residing at the Green Road Housing Project in Ann Arbor, Michigan, who previously attended, are currently attending, or will be eligible to attend the Martin Luther King, Jr., Elementary School." The lawsuit was filed by mothers and by the Student Advocacy Center, a non-profit organization in Michigan.

The Read-Aloud Handbook

Date: 1985
Source: Trelease, Jim. The Read-Aloud Handbook. New York: Penguin, 1985, 14–17.
About the Author: Jim Trelease (1941–) has written and lectured widely about the importance of reading. He was educated at the University of Massachusetts-Amherst (1963) and spent several years working as a journalist. Trelease began Reading Tree Productions in 1983. The International Reading Association honored Trelease in 1989 as one of the people who had made the biggest difference in reading in the 1980s.
Jim Trelease began his journey to discover and write about the importance of reading aloud to children as a parent of small children. Parents like Trelease have known the value of reading aloud to small children for generations. His concern grew for those children who did not have this opportunity and who had not learned how to read. As a result, he wrote and self published the first edition of The Read-Aloud Handbook in 1979 . The first edition, published by Penguin, spent four months on the New York Times bestseller list.
The connections between reading aloud and reading readiness have been explored in research for the past four decades by...

My son went through them all - leaks, cracks, torn spouts, warped in the dishwasher - you name it. Then we found Tommee. These water bottle style do not leak, do not warp, do not crack. I can shake it, drop it, throw it and kick it. Nada. Mom's in the stores ask me about it and I proudly demonstrate how wonderful and spill proof these babies are. I HIGHLY recommend these water bottle style cups to everyone.

we love tommee tippee cups infact my oldest son uses them everyday. but these cups have the spout almost dead center, like a sports bottle. so his head would have to tilt back so far to get to the bottom 1/3 of his juice. Skip these and buy the 24+month cups that are shaped more like a cup. Much better!

Good Cups
By Kim
from Franklin, Ohio
About Me Educator, Parent
Comments about Tommee Tippee 1017092 Tommee Tippee Explora Truly Spill Proof Water Bottle 2pk Boy (Colors/Styles May Vary):
These cups are great! I love that they rarely leak...I will say occasionally they do leak. It seems as if pressure builds in the cup and forces the liquid out the top...even if the beverage is water or juice.
Comment on this review
By Busy House Wife
from Sylvania,OH
We've used Tommee Tippee products for my son since he's been born and these cups are just as great. We've used bottles, nipples, pacifiers, bottle brushes, starter cups, etc. So it was only natural we'd move to the bigger cups as he became a better "self drinker". We haven't had any issues with leaking and they clean very easily in the dish washer. My ONLY complaint is the last 3 sets we've purchased(out of 6 or 7) the U shaped part where the valve(little white & clear part) snaps in have either looked bent or about ready to crack. When they seem to be bent that valve seems to not have as tight of seal and they will SOMETIMES drip a few drops.Even after that issue I would recommend these cups to anyone, and we will continue to purchase these for our little guys.
Doesn't leak

About Me Parent
I was looking for a cup that doesn't leak for my 11 month old. This worked great until she dropped it on the concrete and it broke, cracked from the bottom all the way up the side.
Tippie sippie works great

See all my reviews
This sippie cup is truly leak proof. I like the spout that teaches my little one to drink from a straw.
My son loves them!
By Learning to use sippy cups
from Scranton, PA
Very easy to hold, perfect flow, and quick cleaning make this sippy cup tops. This is the only one he will use for his juice drinks and I couldn't be happier. It is easy for him to hold also. I wish it had a handle because he likes to carry it and that proves difficult with the current design.

Why Importers Miss Holiday Deadlines
Tags: Christmas, color additives, deadlines, easter, FSMA, Halloween, holidays, import alerts, imports, inspections, joc, journal of commerce, late, shipments, statistics
Christmas. Easter. Halloween. If it's a holiday then Americans are spending.
A recent Journal of Commerce article, Imports Set to Surge, delivers growing import statistics and projects increased growth for coming months with the implication that retailers are building up stock for increased spending. "Imports from Asia in January rose 2.9 percent year-over-year, and Moreno forecasts traffic growth will level out at 2.5 percent in 2012," the article states. Yet it seems that every time a gift-giving holiday comes around, importers are always behind in … READ MORE

It's a big patch.
Biggest patch discussions just tend to turn into "favorite expansion VS 4.0" discussions.
Five Common MMO-C Misconceptions:
1. If I'm burnt out on WoW, the game must be less exciting than it was in BC/Wrath.
2. If Guild Wars 2 can do it, WoW should have done it 4-9 years ago.
3. Anything I don't get free is another way to milk the players for money.
4. "Don't hate me because I disagree" is a good way to shut down dissenting arguments.
5. GC is the root of all WoW's problems. Now that he is gone the game will be perfect again.

There must be more because there are still unanswered questions, like what's up with the new island and how will we get mogu runes( scenario like the last time?)
Patch 5.4 certainly is the MOST important one since launch, along with patch 3.3.
Patch 3.3 brought the new cross server dungeon play which was important to group up fast in old dungeons to level and play.
In one blow WoW revitalised 100 old dungeons back in Dec 2009 ...
Patch 5.4 is still more important because it will regroup players from different servers to play together, trade together, fight together and have common guild play, in a new structured virtual realm play allowing open world play with an awesome number of players.
