ECA – 2013 Convention
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
Omni William Penn Hotel
April 24-28, 2013
Thank you to all who attended our 104th ECA Annual Meeting for making it a wonderful experience. Panels and presentations were described as stimulating and insightful, business meetings were well-attended, and conference participants were clearly engaged during receptions.
I'd like to extend particular appreciation to those who served as part of the planning team. Interest group planners were diligent in submitting information and in carrying out the work of their groups. I was also fortunate to have an excellent group of associate planners: Second Vice President Monica Waugh-Benton, Basic Course Conference Coordinator Danamarie Every Gallagher, USC Coordinator Jason Wrench, Director of Marketing Katherine Thweatt, Graduate Poster Coordinator Katie Neary Dunleavy, and Short Course Coordinator Ennis Allen. Kathie Cesa's professionalism and presence at the convention registration desk makes registration run smoothly; special thanks to her for handling a higher than usual number of onsite registrations this year. Thank you also to our convention sponsors and advertisers, whose support is greatly appreciated.
Congratulations to this year's recipients of association awards. Alfred Mueller earned the Donald H. and Carolyn Drummond Ecroyd Teaching Award. Annette Holba received the Past Officers' Award for scholarship and service and, along with Ronald Arnett, the Everett Lee Hunt Award for a scholarly book that contributes to understanding the role of rhetoric in the contemporary world. Candice Thomas-Maddox was awarded the Distinguished Service Award. ECA Article of the Year recognition went to Josue David Cisneros and the ECA Centennial Scholar was Alison Novak. The Applied Urban Communication Research Grant recipient was Allison Burr Miller. ECA Teaching Fellow status, the Association's highest teaching honor, was accorded to Theodore Avtgis, Cindy Lont, and Judy Pearson. ECA's highest research honor, ECA Distinguished Research Fellow status, was granted to Benjamin Bates, Judy Pearson, Melissa Bekelja Wanzer, and Keith Weber.
As a volunteer organization, ECA's convention relies on the efforts of all who participate: audience members, chairs, poster judges, presenters, interest group planners, associate planners, and officers, to make our annual convention successful. Thank you all for your outstanding contributions this year and I look forward to our continuing collective work to make next year's 105th ECA Annual Meeting in Providence a success.

Abstract: A new design developed by the authors that gives an opportunity to account for the interaction of different modes of buckling is presented.Eurocode 3 model is used as the reference model, an equivalent geometric imperfection comprising of an initial bow being equal to the length divided by 500 is used.The model is based on the design criterion referred to the individual chord components. It allows to avoid the application of complicated procedure based on an explicitly given imperfection parameter. It is achieved by a treatment of a chord local buckling mode between lacing connections in the same way as the plate buckling of chord sectional elements.The buckling design of the compound number can therefore be carried out in the same wayas for a single element provided that the stiffness of lacing members is properly taken care of.

Which Team Will Win the 2010 AFC East?

I can't not pick the Pats. The young defense is guided through their learning phase by one of the league's best offenses.

I don't think you are allowed to say this considering they got rid of Thomas Jones and Washington who played a big part in that.Originally Posted by PlsDontTearDownY.S.
Prediction: The Bills will easily have the best ground attack in the AFC East.
This is one of those years where Jets fans think they are easily heading to the SB and something will happen where they end up 8-8 or 9-7.
Buffalo Bills 2010 "Oh"-Line
1) This happens frequently?Originally Posted by TheManKnownAsMecca
2) I don't know any Jets fans who think they are easily headed to the Super Bowl. That's only a strawman that opposing fans and media haters concoct when they don't want to have a rational conversation and have to conceded that the Jets are pretty damn good. I've seen that unintelligent defense mechanism used by people more with this Jets team than any other team I can ever remember in any sport.

Jaret Wright's 2005 Cy Young Season: 20-3, 3.04 ERA
Hate to defend Jets fans, but the only thing I've heard them say this year is that they are one of a few (Colts, Jets, Pats, Ravens) AFC teams that could contend for the SB, and they'd be right. (Yes, I left out the Chargers and Steelers, very much on purpose). Last year only 5 AFC teams had a point differential of +100. New England, San Diego, Baltimore, New York, and Indianapolis. I immediately remove San Diego from consideration because Norv Turner is their coach.Originally Posted by Snatch Catch
In terms of the AFC East, I think the Pats and Jets finish with the same record and both make the playoffs. Who goes further probably comes down to who's playing better in January, Sanchez or the Pats secondary (McCourty, Butler, and Chung).
Easily? No way. Tomlinson is rejuvenated, Shonn Greene is a beast, and the o-line is still one of the best despite losing Faneca. Leon Washington was gone midway through the year, and I think a lot of feature backs in this league could have done for the Jets what Thomas Jones did on the field.Originally Posted by TheManKnownAsMecca
Dem ol' grimy Jets...
I didn't say it happens a lot, but it happens. The last time I've heard such brashness from Jets fans was in 1999. While this was ten years ago, I still remember their ridiculous expectations for Testaverde and company. I guess I just know a lot of Jets fans and their thinking is that a Super Bowl appearance for the Jets this year is a sure thing.Originally Posted by Snatch Catch
That said I personally think that the Jets are not going to do nearly as well this year as they did last year unless Sanchez steps his game up in a big way. Again, I personally think that Greene, and LT are big a downgrade from Jones, Washington, and Greene.
Buffalo Bills 2010 "Oh"-Line
LT looked nice during the pre-season and I won't discount that, but he isn't the LT of old. Greene has potential to be a solid NFL running back.Originally Posted by PlsDontTearDownY.S.
I'm a Buffalo fan and call it homerism if you wish, but I'll take Spiller, Jackson, and Lynch over this version of LT and Greene any day of the week.
Buffalo Bills 2010 "Oh"-Line
Seriously, you can't listen to WFAN for 20 minutes without some bozo, either on the phone or in the studio, complain about "all the cocky Jets fans" who think they're a shoo-in for the Super Bowl. Problem is, you almost never actually hear "all those" fans. The team is cocky but I'm not seeing it at all in the fan base. One occasional cocky call to a talk show is not a trend, it's the law of averages catching up.Originally Posted by Snatch Catch
In fact, especially among the 40-and-over group to which I belong (think Benigno), the decades of frustration have us so cowed that we're afraid to predict anything good, lest we piss off some humorless football god.
I think people are just conflating the team's attitude with the fans'.
I've personally not heard one Jets fan claim that the team is a lock for the Super Bowl.
I refuse to believe that you know "a lot" of Jets fans who think the team is a shoo-in for the SB. I'm a Jets fan, I know probably close to 50 people personally who are Jets fans, and not a single one is even remotely close to thinking that they're a shoo-in for the SB.Originally Posted by TheManKnownAsMecca
I think as a Bills fan you naturally dislike the Jets and their fans, and it sucks for you that they're a competitive team with an intriguing story and outlook for this season. It sucks that you have to hear a ton about a team that you actively dislike, that's annoying - we all experience the same thing with the Red Sox.
I am surrounded by Jets fans in my life and I literally know NOBODY who I would be willing to recognize as "a Jets fan" that thinks what you're saying you've found tons of. Unless of course you're counting the stripper in the tearaway #6 jersey who was bragging about how good Mike Sanchez was last weekend in between dances.

I don't naturally dislike the Jets and their fans. They honestly rank last in the AFC East to me in terms of teams I cannot stand. The Patriots and Dolphins rank ahead of them in those terms. I've actually been had a lot of praise for the Jets in my time here, and anytime I've been wrong I've eaten crow and manned up.Originally Posted by Snatch Catch
It doesn't matter to me if you believe me about knowing a lot of Jets fans. I do and I just shared what they've been saying during the off-season. They truly believe that the L.T., Cromartie, Taylor, and LT signings have put them over the top.

I don't think it's the Jets fans who are convinced they are winning the SB this year, it's the players. I've heard more than a few of them say that it's SB or bust this year.
And then you have Cromartie comparing him and Revis to Jordan and Pippen and saying that they are the Miami Heat of the NFL (which is a better comparison).
I think that is where more of the "hate" is coming from. Not so much the fans cockiness, but the players. But hey, I would assume most fans want their teams to be confident.
On the contrary, most of the Jets fans I know are very wary of the hype. Many of them are all like "Yeah, everyone is saying we're going to contend but it seems just as likely that everything blows up and we go 8-8".

If you were in the NYC area to listen to/watch the local media, you'd see that the fans and team are being widely lumped together and that there is in fact a big backlash going on against "those cocky Jets fans" despite the fact no one seems to be able to actually locate these swarming hordes of blowhard braggarts.Originally Posted by pjfan
The epicenter of this campaign appears to be WFAN, which, surprise surprise, carries the Giants and is the rival station to the one that carries the Jets games.
As an aside, people are acting like it's something new and foreign for a player/coach to say that their only goal is to win the Super Bowl this year.Originally Posted by pjfan
There are a couple of Jets on the defensive side of the ball that talk (I'm looking at you, Bart), but they're not going around saying they're going to win the Super Bowl.
All I've heard is that winning the SB is their one singular goal, and some of them aren't afraid to acknowledge it.
I think people are reacting negatively to it because the Jets have been doormats for years and this group is completely disassociating itself with that, and on purpose. Fans/media aren't ready to "let them" do that - they feel like it's THEIR (the fans/media) decision as to whether or not the team is allowed to be anything other than the Same Old Jets. ("You're not allowed to say your goal is to win the Super Bowl! Does this coach have any idea that he's coaching the Jets?! What a joke, he sure runs his mouth and is cocky.")

Sanchez, Sanchez, Sanchez. Talk about the SB all you want, 'Miami Heat' this, 'soon to be champs' that - this season is in Mark Sanchez's hands. And let's be honest, his season on a whole, was below average. Awful in the regular season and much better in the playoffs. But nowadays, you need a very good QB for your team to be worth a damn. They can be the 2000 Ravens on defense but it won't get them far if Sanchez doesn't improve big time (he needs to improve to get to Trent Dilfer's level). It's a passing/quarterback/offense league now and I don't think you can win if your QB has the 28th best passer rating. If he takes a big step forward they might talk all the way to Dallas.
It is what it is but it ain't what you think
I say we stomp him! Then we tattoo him! Then we hang him! And then we kill him!
I say we let him go.
Jets, easily.
I mean, people knew that Brown was out there, and that Randy was ornery all the time. And Pavano is whoever he is. But if youre their manager, you cant go out and write about them like that.
Jets are a lock for the Super Bowl. They're going to score 6000 points and allow 6 all season.

Welcome to my brainstorming thread that will constantly be updated with the new ideas. Have a look at what we've currently come up with. This post will be updated with more information later.

Currently in the works
We are currently working on character base stats and stat gain per level. I'm thinking of having a stat game that is user guided. Something along the lines of Diablo and Diablo 2 stat leveling system.

Current Character Class List & Roles
Remember this is all before balancing and is just to get the game started off.
1. Warrior - Average class. Decent health gain, damage gain, ect. Rounded class that only deals physical damage. Offers Auras. Main Attribute is Strength.
Warrior Upgradable Stats:

Dexterity: 10
Vitality: 10
Intelligence: 10
Defense: 10
Warrior Base Stats:
Health: 500 + (400) 900
Mana: 200 + (100) 300
Defense: 0 + (10) 10
Magic Armor: 0 + (1) 1
Attack Rating: 70% + (1%) 71%
Attack Power: 50-60 + (50) 100-110
2. White Mage - Healer class, but don't be deceived. At high levels this class can learn some devastating white magic. Low health gain, low armor. High magic armor and mana gain. Main Attribute is Intelligence.
White Mage Upgradable Stats:

3. Black Mage - Magic DPS class. Offers high magical damage output and some very nice passives. Same gains as a white mage. Main Attribute is Intelligence.
4. Assassin - Highest DPS class, offers physical and magical damaging spells. However this class has the lowest armor. Main Attribute is Dexterity.
5. Bowman - Average DPS. Very low health gain but can attack from afar using some nice ranged spells. Main Attribute is Dexterity.
6. Tank - Highest health and armor gain. Low - Average DPS but has high encouragement for your team. Main Attribute is Strength.

How many attribute points will we receive each level?
In my opinion there should either be 5 or 10 points that you can allocate however you like. It depends on how long the game will be going on for. And you could allocate those points however you like. Put all ten into just Strength, or split it up and put 2 in each tree. Any possibility you want really, but spend them wisely as some items call for a certain amount of points needed to wear.
What does each attribute mean?
This is what each attribute means:
Strength: For each point in strength your character will receive 10 health. Strength is also important as it will be needed to equip items. (Maybe another thing can be added to this as well)There are also special addons that apply to different types of classes such as:
Dexterity: For each point in dexterity your character will receive .2% attack rating. Dexterity is important for equipping ranged items and it gives you a better chance to hit.
Vitality: Vitality is an attribute that straight up raises the level of your health by 30 points per point. (Maybe add another meaning to this not sure yet.)
Intelligence: For each point in intelligence your character will receive 10 mana. This is also important for equipping certain items. (Maybe add another to this as well)
Defense: Depending on your character you will receive a different amount of defense per point. Also the Magic Armor ratio will be different per character as well.
Warrior: Receives an extra 5 attack points per strength point. Receives 1 Defense per Defense Point. Magic armor to defense ratio is 1:10.
White Mage: Receives an extra 10 mana and 2 attack power per Intel point. Receives 1 Defense per Defense Point. Magic armor to defense ratio is 1:5.
Others are coming soon.

I was thinking about making it one of those, that is why one person alone shouldn't do all of the stuff :P I'll probably change it to that tbh. I just haven't gotten around to the tank yet
Well first and foremost. Before you develop classes you need to develop the attributes and combat.
You have have archtypes, but don't assign stats if they don't mean anything.
Cool, I have 8 strength.
What does that mean?
I was going to do that, but I don't know if I should keep it the same for each class and then change only the main stat...or to do something different for each class.

Doing something different would be really awkward. At that point they shouldn't really even have the same name...
Perhaps getting something in their main stat has more bonuses:
Example: DEX normally adds crit and mobility.
If its your main it also increases your chance to hit with projectiles.
Or something like that.
There updated the question post with some more information, the rest will come when I finish up the other classes determining what they should get. If you think there should be anything added or taken out form the attribute gain/special class gain let me know.
EDIT: Just saw your post now. I'm trying to keep things relatively simple so it doesn't get over loaded with numbers. I will probably involve a crit system some how but I want to get everything else layed out before adding more to the under developed battle system right now. Things like crit and evasion will be added in after the character basics are in I think. And feel free to shoot out numbers for the other classes if you wish. I tried to keep everything the same but gave some heroes some boosts. I don't think its enough though for their main attribute, not sure what to add.

The idea was to have the attribute give more if its your main.
The example was nothing more than an example, not a suggestion.
Also, evasion can just be added into defense.
Ex: 15% to block all damage + 10% chance to evade = 25% chance for avoidance.
For defense I was thinking of just a common reduction in the damage taken instead of a chance to block it all, kind of like the HoN system uses. As for evasion that would be a good idea for the amount of dexterity you have.\
EDIT: For defense it would have to be much lower then because if it wasn't then you would easily get over 100 defense and have a reduction of over 100%...so maybe that wont work or I should just remove defense from attribute gain and you should only receive it from gear?

Defense should always be a comparison.
You shouldn't have equal chance to stop a rock from hitting you and from a bullet hitting you.

Making It Fit: Rick's Method
Fitting a bulkhead, cabin sole, floor timber, or any piece of wood against the interior surfaces of a hull is a challenge for many marine-industry personnel. Even those possessing carpentry skills often have limited exposure to dealing with the curves and changing bevels so common in boat construction.

Joystick Evolution
"We really like this boat."
"What do you like about it?"
"We feel very comfortable running it and maneuvering it because it has a joystick."
That recent exchange with clients who are looking for the right cruising vessel is typical of the impact joystick controls are having on the decision making of many would-be boat buyers. The fact that a boat may have been ill suited in a multitude of ways to their needs was, to them, secondary to the value of easy maneuverability and diminished anxiety over boat handling, especially at the dock. That explains in part why joystick controls have become an increasingly common option on custom and production recreational boats.

Hines-Farley Makeover
Professional BoatBuilder No. 54 featured an article about the engineering and construction of the first Hines-Farley 63 (19.2m) sportfisherman, reputed at the time (1998) to be the fastest of its size and type, and certainly one of the highest quality—favorably compared to the iconic Rybovich brand. Paul Lazarus, then PBB's editor, wrote the introduction; naval architect Lou Codega described the design and engineering; and Mark Atkinson's photo essay of the shop showed the luxurious vessel coming together, including Corian countertops and joinerwork of koa, teak, quilted mahogany, bubinga, and kawazinga.
The Sea Bright 38
by Reuel B. Parker
The Sea Bright skiff is an American innovation that first appeared on the beaches of New Jersey in the early 19th century. Originally rowing and sailing skiffs, they were launched and retrieved between beach and breaking surf. The model proved to be one of the most seaworthy of all small craft, and it is still used today in life/rescue operations worldwide.
With the advent of the marine engine shortly after 1900, the skiffs grew in size and diversified in function, being used for commercial fishing, rum-running, and eventually for pleasure. The hollow "box keel," peculiar to the Sea Bright type, allowed engine installation to be horizontal, promoting a low center of gravity and no power loss due to down angle in the drivetrain.

Zero-Emission Mission
The inspiration for the French company Alternatives Energies (Alt.En) dates to 1996 in La Rochelle during the European solar boat challenge. The event highlighted the potential to run a vessel for an extended period on solar energy alone.
The prototype vessel, called CREA2000, was designed and built by CRAIN (Centre de Recherche pour l'Architecture et l'Industrie Nautique/Research Center for Naval Architecture and Nautical Industry) as a volunteer student project, and it won all its races by a large margin. CRAIN was founded in 1988 by Philippe Pallu de la Barrière, a mathematics teacher at the Collège de France; for the solar boat project, CRAIN was joined by Christian Bouly, a professor of mechanical engineering at the University of La Rochelle who helped develop the propulsion system, and by manager Alain Bernicard.

After 3 yrs of Ubuntu I am thinking of giving Linux Mint 13 a go. I want it to dual boot with Windows 7 (130 GB) so I started the installation process from the CD and at the partitioning step I see I've still got a previous Windows Vista loader which I erased when installing Windows 7. I want to erase Ubuntu 11.10 and in its place put Mint 13. I also want GRUB to handle the booting process and I want to definitely erase the Vista loader.
In the "Device for boot loader installation" drop down menu I have the following options:
- /dev/sda ATA ST9160821A6 (160.0 GB)
- /dev/sda1 Windows 7 (loader)
- /dev/sda5 Ubuntu 11.10
- /dev/sda6
- /dev/sda2 Windows Vista (loader)
1. How do I erase the Vista loader definitely? Will it affect Windows 7?
2. How much SWAP space do I allocate? (I think I have 1 GB RAM)
3. The second 11 GB partition (sda6), has a 'home' folder completely empty. How do I utilize that space?
4. Can you give me some advice on how to save my 'home' folder (in /dev/sda5) in all this?

Long story short: By upping the ante character-wise and creating memorable action sequences, Catching Fire is a vast improvement on the first Hunger Games film. The Hunger Games: Catching Fire will remind you of: The Lord of the Flies, Battle Royale, Predator, The Truman Show, Dark City, The Running Man, The Dirty Dozen.
The second Hunger Games movie has arrived and it blows the first one out of the water. Director Francis Lawrence (no relation to Jennifer) has the pulse of the fandom. Gone are the handheld action sequences of the first film, the campy CGI crowds of Panem, the frustrating tendency to play it safe. Lawrence's sequel is just "more" and "better" in every way.

UPPER MERION — The fate of more than 60 jobs and an entire bus fleet are hanging in the balance pending a school board decision to cut them or to keep them.
The school board narrowly passed a motion authorizing the administration to negotiate contracts with bus companies, thus affirming the overture that the Upper Merion Area School District (UMASD) would outsource transportation services.
The motion, passed by a 5-4 vote, would finalize contracts with First Student Inc. and Durham School Services for the purposes of selling or leasing the school bus fleet and contracting out all transportation services.
"If we outsource, we no longer have control of the safety issue of our students," said at-large board member Joan Kellett, who has been on the board since 2009.
"Our leverage of having a fleet of buses will be gone. We cause the drivers and staff — many of whom are residents (and) taxpayers — to lose those positions, their pensions and benefits. The transportation services are for profit."
The four "no" votes were split between two Democrats and two Republicans, indicating the decision to move to outsourcing may not be politically driven. New board members Fran Littlewood, representing region 2 and Thad Radzanowski, representing region 1, are Democrats. Kellett and new, at-large member Michelle Barainyak are Republicans.
Maura Buri, school board director for region 3, said she voted to continue negotiations with the bus companies so the district would have all the information to "make the best decisions."
"The district is on a deadline, and if we do not have all the information readily available, we would be hurting ourselves if the transportation department should veto our final offer," she wrote in an email.
"I do not want to go to outsourcing, and value our drivers, their families and their dedication to our children and the district very much. I am hopeful that our final offer will be accepted."
The Teamsters, the union organized behind the bus drivers, has until April 12 to give a written response to the district's proposal.
The contract contains $8,000 in cuts to wages and benefits. The hour wage was reduced from $26 to $18 per hour, according to a source close to the district. A final vote on outsourcing will come during the May 7 board meeting, after the bus drivers decide to accept or reject the last contract offered up by the school district.
Maryann Glauner, a UMASD parent of students in Candlebrook Elementary School and the high school, attends virtually every school board meeting, with her finger on the pulse of its happenings. She raised the point of what, if any, administrative jobs would be cut if outsourcing were to come to pass, among other things.
"The buses we have, we're still paying for them through a bond that the school district took out. It's like having a car payment and no use of the car," she said. "The bus driver is the front line, the first representative of the school district who has contact with these children.
"They set the tone for the day. For the kindergartners, the basic necessity is the security of knowing you're going to school OK and you're going to the right place. The value of that has not even been considered."
Kellett said she did not believe the final contract on the table was fully representative of the entire fleet of drivers and wanted to open negotiations one more time.
"We would have an easier time balancing the budget with the million-dollar income from the sale of the fleet and the anticipated savings from operations," she said.
"The board could justify this decision to outsource by saying other districts have done it — transportation companies concentrate on one line of business. We are in the business of education, not transportation. But that is the last stop and I don't want to get off yet. This recession is cyclical. Outsourcing is permanent. It wouldn't just be a detour, but a dead end."

Imagine what it's like to be a kid and being pressured to diet just to fit -- with the media's appearance of an image of what you should look like.
Research finds that 80% of all ten year old girls in this country have indicted at least once in their lives doctor -- that seems very young.
Very shocking Jamie and 80% of little girls that age also have a feeling about -- body image that they're fat.
We're talking about.
Ten million people ten million girls in the United States have eating disorders and only one million -- so this is a problem that's somewhat gender specific and I think it occurs.
First of all because we put the wrong things in the icebox wrong things in the refrigerator so you drink a lot of soda pop.
You drink candy eat too much ice cream to gain weight then you start looking at the TV and you see somebody that's perfect.
You look at a magazine you see a celebrity they looked perfect there eighteen years old you were ten years all I wanna be like them I wanna be like them.
And then -- drastically diet to try to get there and I think the problem starts -- us with parents because we're not giving our kids the right choices to begin with.
But we can't we can't control the media and what our kids say -- CN and here are -- -- writing historical we have to be conscious of this and we have to not promote dieting and our young people but try to get them to gradually and the other key is exercise -- -- always talking about it here on the show.
If we could get our young kids out there exercise -- Out -- for our day maybe they would have a more healthy -- -- at the same time I don't talk to somebody there are teenagers getting gastric bypass surgery.
Well what do you think about that I don't think it's really healthy.
I think every kid deserves a chance and I think if there are morbidly obese due to genetics or otherwise they deserve it.
We have something Dick bigger question is Jamie how do we get there you have to -- of the country that are suffering from obesity 17% of teenagers are really obese.
How did we get there and I think his point is well taken.
If we are completely -- turning -- robots with -- iphones and -- -- -- and we're not spending enough time with our kids and they're basically just.
Eating all these so there's a sugar and next thing you know they're -- going for the -- it's it's not healthy so I think that they take home messages.
We don't need to necessarily.
Blame media we need to blame ourself we've got to spend all the time.
Absolutely as parents.
What -- a nine year old a ten year old know what they see is on the cover of the magazine as they see these beautiful Hollywood but that's -- the reality none of these models in my opinion are really having healthy diet and to have a job.
-- -- You don't the nine year old doesn't have a you know we just have to feed them healthy stuff.
And we're all guilty of it because of the job and everything that we have spent quality because of time -- -- kid.
Family dinner which we talk about my diet and we got to move -- in his shortest yet you make such an important point this.
Is not exercise its apparent -- right for the funds group for the book thank you so much reminding folks to --

By law (1 U.S.C. § 112a(a)), the Secretary of State is responsible for compiling, editing, indexing, and publishing a compilation entitled "United States Treaties and Other International Agreements," which contains all treaties and international agreements other than treaties to which the United States has become a party during the calendar year. This compilation "shall be legal evidence of the treaties, international agreements other than treaties, and proclamations by the President of such treaties and agreements, therein contained, in all the courts of the United States, the several States, and the Territories and insular possessions of the United States."
Further, pursuant to 1 U.S.C. § 112a(d), the Secretary of State also "shall make publicly available through the Internet website of the Department of State each treaty or international agreement proposed to be published in the compilation entitled 'United States Treaties and Other International Agreements' not later than 180 days after the date on which the treaty or agreement enters into force."
The first official publication of U.S. treaties and international agreements is through the "Treaties and Other International Acts Series" (TIAS), which is a series of consecutively numbered, individually paginated pamphlets containing the texts of agreements in English and other official languages of the agreement. After appearing in TIAS in "slip" form, U.S. treaties and international agreements are published in bound volumes of "United States Treaties and Other International Agreements."
The Office of the Assistant Legal Adviser for Treaty Affairs has begun efforts to make TIAS available on-line, as well as to reduce the delay between entry into force of an agreement and its official publication. In the interim, and in furtherance of 1 U.S.C. § 112a(d), you may view the texts of agreements that entered into force after 1998 on the Department of State's Freedom of Information Act Document Collections page. The listed documents are agreements reported to Congress under the Case-Zablocki Act and are organized by signing date. These documents are largely unedited and subject to possible correction before their official publication in TIAS. In addition, this is not a complete listing of agreements and is a temporary listing until agreements are published in TIAS. Treaties to which the United States has become a party may be determined by consulting Treaties in Force for the current year or, if recently entered into force, Treaty Actions. The text of treaties, as published as Senate Treaty Documents, may be accessed through the Library of Congress' THOMAS website.

A New Passion
Our new Festival series introduces a speaker system whose quality seamlessly matches our VC Master series. Combining Brodmann's traditional values with fine design and materials, the Festival series offers an excellent first step into the audiophile world of high-end sound. No comparable speaker system offers a listening experience so close to your favourite artist's actual performance.
The Festival models benefit from a number of technical innovations such as Brodmann's new Sound Rod Technology first introduced on our Joseph Brodmann Signiture series. The result is incredible sound performance. Behind the timeless elegance of our Festival speaker systems lies impressive knowledge of the complex patterns of acoustics.
The woofer/mid-tone drivers are mounted at the sides of our floor-standing models. This aids the sound and keeps the design beautifully streamlined. The tweeters are our own development in the principle of an electrodynamic chassis. They achieve a free and lively reproduction unequalled by other comparable systems.
At Brodmann, no detail is too small or unimportant. We produce the crossover filters manually and offer matching cables that meet our high standards. All components of our speaker systems are sensitively and carefully tuned to each other as well as the available accessories we've either handpicked or produced ourselves. This helps us ensure the kind of listening experience we all look for but find so rarely: one full of perfect calmness and relaxation where the music is the only thing we notice.
In a rapidly changing world, it's important for us at Brodmann to remain true to our experience as well as innovation. We make every speaker system by hand from the finest material and with love for the detail. We refuse to compromise. A distinct passion for music and for instrument making defines our role as a trail-blazer of sound in the audiophile sector.
Our Festival series is where innovative design meets exceptional performance and value. Our standard is set by you, the customer: how you live today, how you decorate your home, how you listen to music.
In an ideal world, we would listen to our favourite music live: in a jazz cellar, in a philharmonic concert hall, in a stadium. With each speaker from our Festival series, you can have a live music experience whenever you desire, day or night.

New Model Army
New Model Army
To their impassioned cult of fans, New Model Army were one of the best post-punk outfits Great Britain ever produced. Combining the gut-level force of punk with the anthemic political fervor of U2 and the Alarm, as well as the urban protest folk of Billy Bragg, NMA sounded like few other bands mining similar post-punk territory. Their attack was hard, spare, and precise, but as time wore on, they were just as likely to deliver modern-day folk-rock replete with acoustic guitar, violin, and harmonica. Throughout their career, they remained staunch advocates of the British working class, occasionally tempering their leftist, anti-Thatcher political fury with moments of personal introspection. Their shout-along anthems often borrowed the football-chant feel of Oi!, but NMA were far less given to rabble-rousing, instead aiming for intelligent dissidence. True, that could sometimes translate into preachy sloganeering, but NMA's best work earned them tremendous acclaim in the U.K., where their singles regularly placed in the lower reaches of the pop charts. U.K.-specific lyrical references, coupled with visa problems that sometimes made touring difficult, unfortunately ensured that they were all but ignored in the U.S. Still, they maintained a strong following in Europe, and leader Justin Sullivan managed to keep them going for more than two decades.

Bioinformatics Program
Whole-genome sequencing and other genomic, proteomic and metabolomic technologies generate massive amounts of data — your genome alone contains some 6 billion pieces of code in the form of the letters A, G, T and C. Finding genetic and molecular variants within these data that are related to disease is like searching for the proverbial needle in a haystack.
The Bioinformatics Program takes "raw" genomic sequencing data and processes, analyzes and interprets it, advancing research within the center's translational programs, ultimately leading to individualized tests and treatments for patients. When needed, the program develops novel bioinformatics methods to further advance our data processing and data interpretation capabilities.
The program builds on the already extensive bioinformatics resources and activities in the Division of Biomedical Statistics & Informatics at Mayo Clinic, as well as Mayo collaborations with the University of Minnesota, Arizona State University, the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and the National Center for Supercomputing Applications.
Areas of focus
Data pre-processing
Data pre-processing aims to convert "raw" genomic data into biologically interpretable information. This analytical step is the most time-consuming and requires the largest amount of storage space.
Our program has designed and implemented a suite of pre-processing workflows, including several open-source or in-house applications that have been calibrated for optimal variant calling. Workflows are also engineered to run on highly parallel systems and enabled for cloud computing.
Workflows are available for characterizing:
- Single nucleotide variations, indels, copy number variations, translocations and inversions from whole-exome and whole-genome DNA sequencing (DNA-seq)
- Level of gene expression, splice variants and fusion genes from RNA sequencing (RNA-seq)
- Level of microRNA expression from microRNA sequencing (miRNA-seq)
- Methylation sites, transcription factor binding sites and chromatin modifications from methylation sequencing (methyl-seq) and ChIP sequencing (ChIP-seq)
Data integration
After pre-processing, genomic results obtained from patients with similar diseases, tumor type or tumor stage are integrated into a centralized Mayo Clinic repository called the Biologically Oriented Repository Architecture (BORA). In this repository, data are modeled to follow the organization of a biological system. BORA provides interfaces to applications for annotation of variants.
Importantly, BORA can integrate genomic data from Mayo patients with similar data retrieved from external publicly available data sources, such as The Cancer Genome Atlas, a National Institutes of Health catalog of genomic changes in cancer, and the Gene Expression Omnibus, a National Center for Biotechnology Information public repository.
BORA is interfaced to the Enterprise Data Trust, a Mayo Clinic data warehouse that stores the clinical history of patients. This interface provides centralized access to comprehensive clinical and genomics information on Mayo patients as well as biological knowledge from both Mayo Clinic and public sources, allowing the original genomic data to be modeled and studied in the context of a larger biological system.
Data analysis and interpretation
In this final step, bioinformaticians analyze genomic results, help with their interpretation, and then prioritize and report their findings to investigators.
Association methods are used to identify variants that are significantly associated with the disease phenotype or directly involved in the biological mechanisms underlying the disease. So in addition to looking for the "what," bioinformaticians investigate the "why" — in other words, the cascade of molecular events that lead to the development of a disease.
The mechanistic understanding of a disease may lead to new or better ways of treating patients by identifying existing drugs that can be repositioned to treat specific conditions or discovering new drug targets for which new therapies can be developed.

Hmm rather a lot I suspect.! The cylinder at the other end is inside the gearbox housing. Normally if changing the cylinder you would change the clutch. \if you're changing the clutch you need to change the dual-mass flywheel(this may be the cause anyway). Lokking at £500-£650 or much more at main agent I'm afraid.
£595 - you were almost spot on!!!!!

The global job search tool allows you to search available career opportunities within many of our 150 member firms worldwide.
KPMG's International Case Competition (KICC) is a chance for students to challenge yourself to solve a real business issue and an opportunity to meet new people across the globe.
Although Expo 2010 has served to highlight the commercial ascendency of both China and the host city of Shanghai, the city's expansion as a business center has created a growing demand for an educated workforce, a demand that KPMG remains determined to both serve and employ.
April 2010 was a landmark month for both Shanghai and the whole of China. Marked by a spectacular firework display along the Yangtze River waterfront, the launch of the city's Expo 2010 represented the first time that an 'emerging economy' had staged one of these iconic cultural and commercial events.
The Expo was hardly needed to raise the economic and political profile of China and its main commercial center, and yet – with more than 240 countries staging exhibitions – this global fair offered a genuine opportunity for businesses, government officials, journalists and individual travelers to get to know China a little better. Equally important, Expo 2010 provided a forum for the people of China to engage with the world. During the course of this six-month event, over 70 million people passed through the doors of the Culture Center where the Expo was held.
The theme for the event was urban living, or to be more precise, "Better City, Better Life." Within this concept, the event was a showcase for new technologies and new concepts for life in a world where 55 percent of us live in cities. As emphasized by the organizers, such a pressing theme provided huge opportunities for cross-cultural dialogue.
However, the main topic of the Expo was, of course, trade. Since the heady days of Britain's Great Exhibition, the 'expo' has always been about companies and governments showing off their technology to the world. At Expo 2010, American companies were out in force, with Coca-Cola introducing a self-freezing drink and General Motors demonstrating a smart car that could park itself. China also had plenty to present to the world, including a robot restaurant and the Shanghai Corporate Joint Pavilion, an eco-building that incorporates intelligent technologies and an architectural design based on ancient Taoist philosophies.
Shanghai was a natural location for Expo 2010. Situated at the mouth of the Yangtze, the city has been a center for trade between East and West since the 19th century. It's status as China's most populated city also chimed perfectly with the Expo's theme of urban living.
Modern Shanghai is a vital Chinese port, which presently outstrips Hong Kong in terms of traffic. While the Chinese economy has undergone a radical recalibration in recent years, Shanghai now contains a hotbed of activity in the private sector, which comprises 42.5 percent of the city's GDP, according to figures published by the government in 2005. Finance is increasingly important and, in addition to the city's banking industry, Shanghai hosts the most important market share on the Chinese mainland.
Shanghai's recent expansion has created a growing demand for an educated workforce, a trend reflected throughout China. As Lily Siu, a senior manager with KPMG in China in human resources, explains, the company is recruiting heavily, not only in Shanghai but also across the whole country. "Overall, we will be recruiting between 1,300 and 1,500 graduates this year," she says.
Lily stresses that KPMG's graduate recruitment policy does not merely focus on a narrow range of graduates. "We are looking for graduates from all disciplines," she says. "What we've found is that by recruiting across a mix of disciplines we bring a valuable diversity to the workplace."
This approach to recruitment depends on an effective conversion and training program that provides graduates from a range of backgrounds with the skills required to work in practices such as audit, tax and advisory. However, Lily is keen to emphasize the importance of selecting candidates with the right blend of personal qualities. "We are looking for team players who are good communicators with logical minds," she says. "We are also seeking people who have a real passion for the work they will be doing."
KPMG in China's recruitment program also fulfills the company's demand for experienced applicants. This is especially true in the case of KPMG's Advisory practice, where candidates with a track record in particular industries are much sought after. However, the company's search for personnel is not limited to China. "We're looking for good candidates on a global basis, whether graduates or people with industry experience," says Lily. The caveat here is that candidates must have the right to work in China. In the case of students, this usually means Chinese nationals who are studying abroad.
Lily acknowledges that KPMG is recruiting in a competitive marketplace. "It's important that we have the right corporate image to attract graduates," she says. "It's also very important for us to understand who they are and what they want. To that end, we've done research involving internal and external analysis and focus groups."
Outreach also plays an important role in KPMG in China's recruitment strategy, with HR organizing exhibitions and events in universities and cities across the country.
As KPMG's talent search continues, so China's economy continues to grow, attracting more people and more industries to commercial and industrial centers such as Shanghai. This will undoubtedly mean an ongoing demand for educated and skilled workers in a tight labor market. And it's within this challenging environment that KPMG continues to work hard to establish itself as an employer of choice.

The Lyons Area Chamber of Commerce announces another successful campaign to collect items from Chamber members for "Lyons Welcomes You." This program welcomes new residents in the greater Lyons area with a welcome bag that is full of goodies from Chamber members.
Working with realtors, the Chamber committee identifies people who have recently purchased homes in the area. The Town of Lyons also helps to identify those new residents moving into the town limits. If you are new to the area or know someone who is, please register for a bag on the Lyons Chamber website at lyons-colorado.com. The number of welcome bags are limited, one welcome bag per household, offered on a "first come first served" basis.
This is a partial list of Chamber members who contributed (the rest will be published in a future Lyons Recorder edition). Thank you, members.

In the interest of full disclosure, let it be known that the author of this article is married to the Mayor.
The Board of Trustees (BOT) held a workshop Monday evening to go over the design standards suggested by the Planning and Community Development Commission (PCDC) for Commercial Eastern Corridor and other commercial areas in Lyons, with the exception of the core downtown business district (Main/High Street between Third and Fifth Avenues). The Trustees only got through about half the document, which is being fine tuned for a first and second reading including a public hearing later this summer (most likely late July or early August). The design standards will encompass, among other things, parking, lighting, designated percentages of green space within a project, landscaping, environmental concerns, and architectural details. The next scheduled workshop on this matter is scheduled for Monday, June 24 in Town Hall.
Also on the evening's agenda was a special meeting to amend the contract with Loris Engineering, the firm that designed and implemented the facelift of Main Street back in 2009/10. They have also been awarded the contract to do the redesign of the next Main Street project from the Stone Canyon/McConnell Bridge intersection to the Bank of the West (Main Street and Third Avenue), which is currently in the design phase.
Town Administrator Victoria Simonsen asked for the special meeting because during recent discussions with representatives from Loris, she was advised that if the data from a recently proposed storm drainage study turns out as they (Loris) believe it will, it could realize the Town a $40,000 savings on the cost of the overall project. Not only would this mean that a smaller, less costly storm drain pipe could be used, but it might also enable the project to cover the drainage ditch that currently runs down the south side of Main from near the Fire Station to the Black Bear Hole parking lot, which could increase parking and perhaps enhance a median strip in that area as well. The proposed study would cost approximately $10,000 (for a potential net savings of $30,000), which is over the $5,000 spending limit that Simonsen can authorize without Board approval; hence the need for the special meeting. The Trustees agreed to amend the contract.

I wanted to comment on the hugely successful 2013 Lyons Outdoor Games (LOG). I have watched this event grow from its infancy into a family-friendly, multi-sport, and activity based three-day event. With growth comes growing pains; however, with growth comes the opportunity for Lyons to grow this event into a nationally recognized destination event that show cases the many attributes our town has to offer (beyond bluegrass). This event, when allowed to prosper, will continue to give back to us and our children for years to come. A huge thank you to Dave Cosgrove and his team, Dale Katechis, and of course Human Movement Management. We are on the right track. Lets keep this LOG rolling.

Mike Thayne, owner of Smith Crown, showed off his particle meter to ABC 4. Smith Crown sells air purifiers, a hot commodity during bad air days.
"We've been selling a lot of them lately people that have smaller children that can't deal with the environment outside," said Thayne.
Next to the purifier, the meter reads zero particulates per cubic foot.
As for outside, it's a different story. "Normally on a clear, sunny day it's about 200,000," said Thayne.
On a "red air" day, like Wednesday, the meter climbed to 12 million. Thayne said he's never seen a number that high. "Never, it usually hovers around 9 million in these bad inversions," he said.
To put 12 million particulates into perspective, Thayne said Beijing and Mexico City hover around half that. "It's kind of scary, actually if we have the worst air quality in the country, we might have the worst air quality in the world right now," he said.

Along with the purple, green and gold of the festival there is also gray this year: Rain clouds covering the French Quarter.
That's not stopping the celebration, however.
"Weather has nothing to do with anything at all," says reveler Heidi Bowers. "It's a party no matter what!"
Meteorologist Margaret Orr is the person parade leaders call when they are concerned about the weather, and she's confident this year's party won't get washed away.
"I don't think it's going to be an all day rain, we are going to have some showers moving through," she says.
And the truth is many may not even notice the rain after an hour our two on Bourbon Street.
Restaurants and hotels say the chance of rain hasn't dulled the crowds too much, and vendors say ponchos are selling almost as fast as beads this year.
