I am looking for insructions on how to build the drive works, especially the prop shaft, tube, bearings and stuffing box for use on a very small power boat that will use a 5~10 HP motor.
I have looked in several books from the library and looked on the internet and have not found that much information on what is required to do a hull penetration for a prop shaft that won't sink my little wooden boat. If some one can poke me in the right direction, I'll thank you greatly!

Carterville Students Start Anti-Bullying Campaign
WILLIAMSON COUNTY-- Local teens turn the death of a classmate into a movement to end bullying.
It's been a tough week for students and staff at Carterville High School. They lost sophomore Jordan Lewis to suicide October 17. His death, Lewis's father believes, was a response to bullying. Students at the school say cyber emotional, and physical abuse does happen. They explained it's often in the hallways, away from teachers. Now classmates are standing together, against the abuse. "It's honestly terrible that we have to wait for something so tragic before we get on working together to stop it," Elizabeth Hensley said. They've created a campaign: Stop Bullies Today. "Everybody in the school is banding together to get it to stop," explained Christian Petersen. Selling shirts with their motto, and Jordan's name on the back, to send a message. "Bullying can go too far and they need to understand words can hurt," said Maddi Petersen. The t-shirts are $10 with all proceeds going to Jordan's family. Visit this website to purchase the shirts directly: http://www.customink.com/signup/4fuy3sum Orders should be received by November 25. Search the group's Facebook page for more information on the movement: Stop Bullies Today. |

With another year coming to an end, JAE E took to instagram to let fans know the that they can expect the second installment of the ADITL Mixtape Series, ADITL: First Class on December 21st. With not a lot of hip hop coming out of the Southwest, this is the perfect opportunity for an artist to solidify and ultimately take over the region going into the new year. ADITL: First Class will feature a couple rap vets in DMX and E4o along with a touch of Houston with Mike Jones and Dorrough. With his latest single "Go Get It" making it's stamp on the net and reaching college and commercial radio outlets I look for ADITL: First Class to ride that wave and make some legitimate noise. The project will be available for download on Datpiff and HotNewHipHop and is setting the stage for his upcoming EP. #NoGimmicks

I'm such a fan of seeing street style photos, so you can imagine my *delight* when I came across some vintage photos that were reminiscent of that trend. These photos are all from the 30's and 40's and since there weren't as many streets back in those days some of these are "grass style". I'm in love with the first two photos for totally different reasons...the top photo was taken at the corner of Hollywood Blvd. and Vine St. which is right near my hood so it makes me nostalgic, and she looks so damn cool + look at her shoes!! The second photo just makes me swoon. I love her hat and giant corsage!!

Colleges can sometimes have awesome jobs on-site (Some are better than others). Since all my friends were English majors, they worked in writing centers and tutoring jobs employed by the school.
You could also try working at either the cafeteria, coffee shop, library, bookstore, IT dept, etc. Some of the jobs offered at both my community college and university even paid more than I was working at a retail store.

AT&T Hosting, Application & Cloud Services
Learn about implementing cloud technology to deliver and commercialize an adaptive and reliable cloud services ecosystem.
"This is a hybrid cloud that allows VMware clients to extend their private clouds into AT&T's network-based cloud using a virtual private network (VPN). And it melds the security and performance of VPN with the economics and flexibility of a public cloud. So the service is optimized for VMware's more than 350,000 clients."
Atea chose VMware Socialcast to support bold new business targets and connect 6,500 employees across the Nordic region The implementation of SocialCast supports AteaŌĆÖs aggressive growth strategy by making sure that their 6,500 employees can easily connect and learn, leveraging not only people skills but the organisation as a whole. It no longer matters which of the seven countries the employees are based or on what device they chose to work on.
ŌĆ£This is a completely different type of environment compared to the intranets which companies have been struggling with over the last couple of decades. Socialcast taps into peoplesŌĆÖ natural curiosity and need to communicate in a plain yet powerful way.ŌĆØ

Ausclad Group
Less Servers Means More Room To Grow For Ausclad Group

Australian Bureau of Statistics
VMware Virtualization Reduces Datacenter Costs While Enhancing Manageability And Performance.
ŌĆ£Deploying VMware has enabled us to eliminate the two-month delays that our business clients often experienced before gaining access to a piece of testing hardware, while ensuring we can optimize performance for databases and applications.ŌĆØ
Australian Bureau of Statistics
Australian Bureau of Statistics Charts National Trail to Cloud Infrastructure. Agency Deploys VMware Technology to Deliver Infrastructure-asa- Service (IaaS)

Australian Catholic University
VMware virtualization has enabled ACU to consolidate its physical server fleet, reducing costs and improving manageability. ACU also gained a platform on which to build its cloud computing capability.
ŌĆ£VMware has given us a lot of flexibility and the confidence that we can move to our disaster recovery environment when we need to. We have also saved on time, effort, procurement and energy costs and can now quickly deploy new virtual servers to meet our business needs.ŌĆØ

B. Braun Medical Kft.
B. Braun develop, manufacture, and sell premium category healthcare products, and their dialysis centers provide mission-critical healthcare services, so the IT services at the company that support the operation must meet very stringent requirements. Their server environment, virtualized and made disaster-resistant using VMware, enables them to meet business requirements at all times, and in a cost-efficient manner.
"In order to maintain the level of quality expected in healthcare, we use best-in-class hardware and software solutions. Hence when we decided to use server virtualization, VMware was the obvious choice."
Babson College
Discover how Babson College implemented a VblockŌäó Infrastructure Platform featuring VMware vSphereŌäó which allowed Babson to transition quickly and cost-efficiently to a flexible, scalable IT infrastructure.
ŌĆ£Colleges must be ready with the capacity and processing power to accommodate the IT needs of their faculty, students and administrators. Vblock is therefore a great architecture for institutions of all sizes: it is cost-efficient, fast to deploy and meets the most demanding performance and storage needs.ŌĆØ
BancVue is one of the fastest growing companies in the financial space. Their charter is to help credit unions and small banks compete with mega banks by providing them innovative products and services.
ŌĆ£One of my goals as the VP of Systems Operations in the datacenter is to have a private cloud where we are fully in control of who touches the servers, what is being administered on the servers, and able to give those results to auditors upon request.ŌĆØ
Virtualization has allowed BancVue to reduce its physical servers, leading to cost reductions and efficiency gains across its business. Overall, BancVue has been able to reduce its hardware footprint by ten times.
ŌĆ£Our environment is very heterogeneous, and other virtualization solutions we looked into, native and open source, had synch problems and time-drift between systems. Many virtualization products worked great for some operating systems but did not have the same depth and support for other operating systems.ŌĆØ
Banking services provider BancVue has been able to provide business agility to its community bank consumers, enabling them to better compete against the megabanks on such critical areas as customer service and end-user portals.
"We knew that we could go to VMware and get the cloud solution, as well as the virtualization solution, because virtualization was just the first step to us to become fully virtualized in a private cloud environment, with software, security like vShield and vCenter Operations Manager."
VMware has provided Banglalink with a solution to address all its IT challenges including provisioning, scalability, ease of management, and has provided significant savings in operating and capital expenses.
ŌĆ£We are really happy with the performance and support we are getting from VMware and EMC. In managing all the virtual machines we found the software to be user friendly.ŌĆØ
Bank Andara
VMware virtualization enables Bank Andara to provide reliable services to its clients while lowering costs and responding quickly to business demands.
We selected VMware after evaluating alternative virtualization offerings. We were impressed that the product had been in the market and actively developed for more than five years, and that it.
Bank OCBC NISP
VMware virtualization enabled Bank OCBC NISP to increase productivity and customer satisfaction by significantly improving the reliability of core banking system updates. It also helped the institution consolidate its physical server fleet and maintain application availability and performance while reducing costs.
ŌĆ£We are no longer affected by network or electricity issues and our entire branch network opens every day without interruption.ŌĆØ
Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd.
In what is believed to be the worldŌĆÖs largest documented VDI deployments, the Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi-UFJ, in partnership with Wyse and IBM, has deployed over 50,000 virtual desktops as it continues a multi-year, multi-million dollar IT transformation project. A combination of View and ThinApp is supporting the BankŌĆÖs drive to lower CAPEX and OPEX while increasing security, availability and the delivery of business-critical services.
ŌĆ£Desktops are in many ways the lifeblood of the companyŌĆÖs daily work, so it makes sense to keep them on a central server where we can make sure nothing goes wrong. Being able to give users an optimum working environment, and helping them benefit from new advances in technology, is something that we as IT professionals find very motivatingŌĆØ

Though not present at the 'Butter' premiere last night, Weinstein had the film's co-star Olivia Wilde deliver the following remarks to the TIFF crowd:
In 20 years of coming to the Toronto Film Festival, I've never released a statement for a film. But I would like to take this moment to formally invite Republican Congresswoman from Minnesota and Republican presidential candidate Michele Bachmann to co-host with me the big premiere of 'Butter' in Iowa in a few months from now. I know Michele will already be in Iowa for the caucus, so we can save some money on airfare and travel. I would, of course, be more than happy to fly in the other leading members of the Tea Party movement to make an entire day of it.'Butter' (hitting theaters on Oct. 28) stars Jennifer Garner as a Midwestern housewife who will stop at nothing to reclaim her husband's former glory as the local butter-carving champion. Per THR, the story is a clear jab at the American political process, with Garner playing a dead ringer for Bachmann. Definitely an inspired way to promote a film, but something tells us Bachmann won't be RSVPing.
We could take some math classes in the morning to help balance the budget, brush up on the Constitution in the afternoon, play some ping-pong, and then maybe some verbal ping-pong on gay rights and women's rights (especially the right to choose). But at night we can all go hand-in-hand to the premiere of 'Butter,' a fun and important film where we'll share some popcorn and laughs. These are the kind of bipartisan effort that makes America great.
I look forward to hearing from Michele, and I'm particularly looking forward to those classes on the Constitution.
All my best, Harvey.

CARBONDALE, CO-- As we bush-wacked our way into the Mokelumne Wilderness early in summer 2009, The Wilderness Land Trust staff and our dedicated land appraiser searched for an elusive trail to lead us to the Raymond Creek private inholding. We spotted a furry baby black bear scaling a towering Sugar Pine straight ahead. As we snapped a quick photo, the urgent, loud grunts of a mother bear, unseen but definitely heard, chased us away to return another day. Later that summer, we finally did make it to the Raymond Creek property, purchased it, and now are proud to announce that The Wilderness Land Trust recently transferred the 20-acre private inholding to the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest for permanent protection as a part of the Mokelumne Wilderness. The Mokelumne Wilderness is located in California, south of Lake Tahoe and the town of Markeleeville, between Highways 88 and 89 in the Humboldt-Toiyabe and El Dorado National Forests.
Permanent protection as wilderness of one of the few remaining private inholding properties in the Mokelumne Wilderness prevents future incompatible private uses at the top of the Carson River watershed in a pristine alpine environment. The property is located along Raymond Creek, at the very top of the watershed. The Carson River travels 184 miles to provide a lifeline for people, wildlife and agriculture in the Mokelumne Wilderness, the Hope Valley, and Carson City.
Wildlife common to the area include bears (and their cubs), eagles, picas and grouse. The Carson River Basin also supports towering pines, valleys with pastoral meadows and meandering creeks. The views from the property include rugged rock formations and some of the tallest peaks in the area.
"Hiking to this property, surrounded by stunning views, we encountered sage grouse, a mother bear with its cub, and a beautiful mountain meadow complete with a meandering stream, fed by Raymond Creek," said Aimee Rutledge, California Program Manager. "We are proud to work with the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest to permanently protect this property and its precious resources as part of the surrounding Mokelumne Wilderness."
The US Forest Service, Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest manages the section of the Mokelumne Wilderness containing the Raymond Creek Property.
"This acquisition is truly a gift to the American people. We are thrilled about the inclusion of this property into the National Forest as this will provide both the local residents of Alpine County, as well as the general public, with expanded opportunity to explore this unique and pristine wilderness area. The work The Wilderness Land Trust did to secure this property and donate it to the Forest Service is greatly appreciated"," said Jeanne Higgins, Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest Supervisor.
The United States Congress designated the Mokelumne Wilderness in 1964 and it now has a total of approximately 99,181 acres, to which the 20-acre Raymond Creek property was added when The Trust donated the property to the Forest Service.
The Mokelumne and Carson Rivers bisect remote mountainous terrain where elevations range from about 4,000 feet to 10,000 feet near Round Top Peak. Shallow valleys hide many small lakes. The river canyons are extremely rugged, but glaciers have smoothed much of the area, leaving well-placed trails relatively easy to hike. In spring and summer, meadows boast a riot of wildflower color. A prolific trail system includes 20 miles of the Pacific Crest Trail, as well as other regional trail systems, providing many opportunities for recreation and solitude.

WASHINGTON, D.C.-- Voluntary conservation of private land received a boost yesterday when President Obama mentioned the work of land trusts in his remarks introducing the landmark America's Great Outdoors Report at a reception in the East Room of the White House. The collective voice of land trusts was reflected in the report, which proposes to extend the enhanced tax incentive for conservation easement donations beyond 2011, fully fund the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF), and focus a portion of LWCF on innovative projects that support urban parks, community green spaces and large-scale land conservation.
Mr. Obama said that "at a time when America's open spaces are controlled by a patchwork of groups, from government to land trusts to private citizens, it's clear that conservation in the 21st century is going to take more than what we can do here in Washington…Meeting the new test of environmental stewardship means finding the best ideas at the grassroots level, it means helping states, communities and nonprofits protect their own resources, and it means figuring out how the federal government can be a better partner in those efforts."
The report draws inspiration from hundreds of land trust participants at America's Great Outdoors listening sessions around the country. "I am proud of the nation's 1,700 land trusts for pioneering the voluntary conservation incentives and locally driven partnerships embraced in this report," Land Trust Alliance President Rand Wentworth said. "This initiative will significantly reorient federal conservation efforts to emphasize working lands and to embrace local governments and land trusts as effective partners in conserving the places that give meaning to our lives."
The report's vision statement describes a future in which "Rural lands—our working farms, ranches and forests—are conserved and restored through local partnerships." The president's Fiscal Year 2012 Budget Request makes a down payment on that vision by providing $200 million for the Farm and Ranch Lands Protection Program and $900 million for the LWCF, some of which "will be competitively awarded to address priorities and leverage resources for urban parks and public-private conservation projects."
In communities across America, nonprofit land trusts are working with private landowners to keep farm, ranch and forest lands in productive use, create community parks and open space, protect important fish and wildlife habitat, and conserve our scenic and historic heritage. With the help of more than 100,000 volunteers and 2 million members, land trusts have conserved more than 37 million acres, including more than 12 million acres protected by voluntary conservation agreements with private landowners.
The Land Trust Alliance is a national conservation group that works on behalf of America's 1,700 land trusts to save the places people love by strengthening land conservation throughout America. The Alliance works to increase the pace and quality of conservation by advocating favorable tax policies, training land trusts in best practices and working to ensure the permanence of conservation in the face of continuing threats.

]]>Leading off in 1998, Dan Pike of Colorado Open Lands requested that Jessica Jay research options for Colorado Open Lands' individual and collective easement defense, which culminated in the seminal article: Land Trust Risk Management of Legal Defense and Enforcement of Conservation Easements: Potential Solutions, published in 1999.
The Bay Area Open Space Council sponsored Darla Guenzler, now the Executive Director of the California Council of Land Trusts, to undertake research on collective defense resulting in publication of Creating Collective Defense Resources in 2002, and
The Heart of the Rockies land trusts, led by Paul Sihler (left) and then Mike Whitfield (middle), retained Montana attorney Andy Dana (right) to analyze the conservation defense insurance idea.
Credit is also due to former Alliance staff members Liz Bell, now with the Wilburforce Foundation, and John Bernstein, now with the Northern Sierra Partnership, for helping move the insurance effort onto the national stage.
Land trust leaders have talked about some form of collective defense for over twenty years, but it wasn't until 2000 that viable national solutions appeared from the western efforts. We owe these visionary leaders and thinkers a huge 'thank you'.
It is inspiring to see 454 land trusts, so far, from 47 states join together to uphold conservation permanence. Almost 70% of the conservation easements in America are committed to the proposed conservation defense insurance program with the exception of the easements held by the 10 largest self-insured land trusts. That collective action is a formidable defense to the numerous and increasing challenges to conservation.
Funders are impressed with this commitment and having even more land trusts join will make raising the necessary $4 million dollars to capitalize the program possible. So if your land trust is looking at committing to the proposed program, you still have time to join your colleagues across the country.

Uyuni, Bolivia: The Bolivian salt flats. The Bolivian salt flats are a 12,000 square km of bright white expanse. In the summer though it rains enough that they are covered in water, sometimes more than a meter. It makes for an incredible reflection. At one of the many stops on our 4x4 tour across the Salt Flats I managed to escape from the horde of tourists and capture this photo. I have no idea who this woman is or where she came from. She seemingly appeared from nowhere only allowing me the opportunity for just one shot; I lined it up and took the perfect photo of her just before she disappeared behind the crowd. This is one of my favorite photos, it gives you a glimpse of the incredible beauty of the place. This photo will be appearing at the Smithsonian Institute in Washington DC from July 2009 - January 2010

Online fashion is growing fast, but as Leon Bailey-Green pointed out in our recent interview, just 6% of the UK fashion retail market is selling online.
This means there is still huge potential for getting people to shop for fashion online. One way to do this is to attempt to recreate the in-store experience as closely as possible, and to help shoppers get a feel for clothes without being able to see them close up and try them on.
Here are a few ideas from online fashion sites that are doing this well, though the advice applies equally to other sectors...

I've wondered for a while why some established retailers haven't been selling online, given the growth of e-commerce and the potential for extra revenues.
Gap is a prime example of this; despite having a successful e-commerce operation in the US, it has never transferred this to the UK, despite being a recognisable brand with a high street presence in the UK.

Delivery details and the different options available can be a deal-breaker for online retailers. Free delivery offers are now quite common, but very few seem to offer delivery on a specified date.
Offering to deliver items on a particular days can be a compelling prospect for customers, who may be impatient to get hold of their purchases, or who have work commitments and need a definite date.
I've been looking at some UK e-commerce websites to see if they offer this service, and how it is communicated to shoppers...

For many, when it comes to writing product descriptions for their e-commerce website, it is a one-way ticket to Boresville! You can tell they'd rather have their teeth pulled, Orin Scrivello style, than sit down and write some copy that sells (heck, even more easier than just to go and control-c some competitors copy, right?)

Call to action buttons need to jump out at the shopper and leave them in no doubt about the next step they need to take to make a purchase.
It's not enough just to place a link to buy or add an item to baskets on the product page; retailers need to think about making the button stand out from other elements on the page to attract as many clicks as possible. A good button can increase conversions, so it's worth testing variations to find the most effective design.
Here are a few tips for call to action buttons on e-commerce product pages, as well as a few examples, good and bad.

TK Maxx has started to sell online in the UK, but the discount retailer is taking a cautious approach, and is only offering handbags for sale on the site so far.
The company is asking for feedback from customers on what else they would like to buy from the site though, so it seems that other product ranges will follow.
by Graham Charlton 18 May 2009 11:40am 3 comments
Online retailers can do a lot more to help sell their products online, by using better product descriptions to convince customers to buy, and providing better quality product photos, especially in the case of more expensive items.
A post by Katie Lee on the Telegraph blog yesterday asks the question: 'Why is shopping online still so terrible?', and based on the headline, I was prepared to defend e-tailers, as there are some excellent e-commerce sites around, and most have improved over the last year or so.
While the title may be a bit of a generalisation, there are some good points about the quality of sales copy on product pages, and the poor quality of product photos. I've been having a look at some examples where retailers could do a lot more to sell expensive items...

Comments about 7-1/4-in Circular Saw:
Bought saw to cut paving stones. After changing blade and figuring out how to get a straight cut, saw worked and still works just fine. After a while tho this old man has to rest because it is a little heavy.
Lock for changing blade is nice too.

Comments about 7-1/4-in Circular Saw:
Saw is an excellent value for the price. It was shipped in the cheapest box imaginable with no packing. The shoe and guard wore through the bottom of the box in two places. Luckily it is the older model with nice solid aluminum shoe and the guard was only scratched.

Comments about Makita 5007F 7-1/4-in Circular Saw:
While I've always respected Makita tools, for years their ergonomics suffered. I decided to buy this saw based on price, (It's quite inexpensive for its quality), and I was pleasantly surprised that they've re-engineered the grip! Now it's not only high quality, it "feels" high quality. :)

Comments about 7-1/4-in Circular Saw:
I got this saw to replace my skil saw. the skil was not a "bad" saw, but it was under powered. this thing is a beast! eats wood for dinner :) I like that light comes on when you flip safety switch, I LOVE the switch, not a stupid button you have to hold. The safety cover operates great and does not snag when first opens, very smooth operations. My old skil snagged old the time and I had to hold it back with rubber bands, exposing saw that was a safety issue...
I was told by uncle (pro) that magnesium body is lighter, but since I don't use it all the time, not an issue for me.
The only thing I was disappointed with is CPO shipping. The first one I got was packaged VERY poorly and FedEx clearly dropped it very hard, the base was bent on one corner badly, but it looked like brand new saw, the replacement was NOT packaged better, despite me asking for a better packaging and replacement saw looks used, or not as good as first one....

About the Artist
Cyryn Fyrcyd
Pronounce Siren Fireside, Cyryn Fyrcyd is a true British charmer. Raised by females, self educated and an indivual who holds that "je nes se quoi" charcteristic. Cyryn was born to create art. It is a gift that emerged early in his life through his sketches and only continues to manifest. Introducing himself into art in 1997, the natural fusion of music and art cascaded naturally for him, with paint brush in hand. Whereas now, Cyryn has been trying a variety of other forms of abstract. Expressing his love of music and capturing the energy and adrenalizing beats on his handmade canvases, is an on-going dance party within his mind.

Library news and happenings.
We are getting ready to offer several new services in 2013.
Details are yet to be worked out, but we will add Freegal Music to our services within the next month or two. With a KPL card, library users will have access to millions of songs from 10,000+ labels, including all Sony Music labels. From an easy-to-use website, users will be able to download mp3 files that can be played on any device, including iPods. Watch for an announcement soon.
We will also be adding Rocket Languages, an online language learning program. If your new year's resolutions include learning a new language, this is for you! Spanish, Portuguese, Korean, Japanese, Italian, Hindi, German, French, Chinese, Arabic, and American Sign Language are here for the learning. Again, details will be announced soon.
And we are thrilled to have been awarded a grant to become a Family Place Library, a national model and designation that builds on the knowledge that good health, early learning, parental involvement, and supportive communities play a critical role in young children's growth and development. Several of us will attend a training institute in the spring with the expectation we will launch this new initiative later in 2013.
We're looking forward to the new year with these new services. Details to follow over the next few months.
Best wishes for the new year.
Our year ended on June 30 and it was a very good one!
Circulation of print and AV materials was up 21% over the previous year. Not surprisingly, the percentage increase was greatest in ebooks – from about 3,600 to over 17,000. Our total circulation was over 1.6 million so ebook circulation is still small in comparison to print and AV.
Program attendance was strong also, especially for our programs for children and teens; attendance at youth programs was over 37,000 for the year. We have increased our emphasis on programs for these ages, both in the library and around the community, in support of our priority of "creating young readers."
Computer use, number of cardholders, and hits to our website are all up for the year, too.
Come visit soon, in person or through our website... check out an item, attend a program, find information on our website.
If you have children in your life, you might know about the TumbleBook Library but if not, here is a brief overview with a link to our website for more detailed information.
Kids and tweens can listen to or read along at their own pace to animated, talking picture books, read-alongs and ebooks on a computer or ipad. In addition to books, there are videos, puzzles and games, and language learning. All are available through our website. A good starting point is the virtual tour for an overview of the various features.
The books range from picture books, easy readers, chapter books, teen fiction, and graphic novels. Suggested grade level is included.
Children learn in various ways and many of today's kids learn best in an online environment or as a complement to print learning. We'll have books in both print and online format for many years to come.
A recent library publication included some statistics to show "its's an 'e' world". Some of them seemed worth sharing:
• 2,267,233,742 - Internet users worldwide
• 644,275,754 – number of websites as of March 2012
• 47,097 – magazines, newspapers, newsletters, TV/radio transcripts around the world that offer online full text, up from about 5,500 in 2000
• 112 – number of e-mails sent and received each day by the typical user
• 183% - increase in public library e-book collections in the past year
Of course KPL's holdings reflect this shift to an 'e' world also. These statistics are from our annual report to the Library of Michigan submitted earlier this year:
• 1,352 – downloadable audio items
• 4,184 – e-books available
• 16 – database subscriptions
Most of our holdings are still in "physical units": print books, DVDs, CDs, but we are increasingly moving to the 'e' world also.
Come visit soon – through our website for e-resources or any of our buildings.
Just sharing some miscellaneous info...
• Our summer hours are now in effect….we close at 6 pm on Thursdays and are closed Sundays. Winter hours will resume after Labor Day.
• Summer reading games for all ages – youngest to oldest – begin on June 13, last day of school for Kalamazoo Public School students.
• Our popular First Saturday @ KPL program will continue through the summer along with many programs for school age children.
• We are beginning to consider suggestions for next year's Reading Together title and would welcome your ideas for a title, author, or theme. Just add yours as a "comment" to this blog.
• And speaking of Reading Together, did you see the heartfelt letter this year's author, Luis Urrea, sent us?
• You can now search the Kalamazoo Telegraph, a local newspaper from 1863 – 1913, through our website. It's interesting reading even if you aren't a local historian or genealogist.
• If you missed "Michigan at the Exposition: The 1893 Chicago World's Fair," it is on our website, along with many other programs.
• There are some online audio books, always available, you can download through our website. It makes exercising more enjoyable if you can listen to a good book at the same time.
• KPL staff blog about books they have recently read and particularly enjoyed. Our reading tastes vary greatly; we invite your comments and welcome an online discussion.
• We've added ebooks for kids to our website. Some reluctant young readers who have access to an ereader, but be enticed to read more in this format.
Come visit soon…..Central Library, branches, or through our website.
I have often written here about opportunities as well as limitations for ebook use through public libraries. Now I want to call your attention to two ebook features on our website.
First is a short video (1 minute 14 seconds) explaining publisher limitations on ebook availability through public libraries. Along with the video is an online petition to make your voice heard. I urge you to watch the video and sign the petition. You'll find links on our home page and on our eBooks page.
Second is a Pew research study about ebook use. The results of this study will help libraries and publishers better understand the use of ebooks through libraries and, I am hoping, strengthen the library argument for ebook availability. I urge you to complete this brief survey. There's a link on our eBooks page.
Ebooks lending through public libraries is an evolving service for us, an evolving market for publishers. Let your voice be heard, your opinion counted through this petition and research study.
Last week I wrote here about the evolving ebook market.
I shared that libraries were bracing for a price increase for ebooks from Random House publishers. Indeed the recent increases are double and triple the prices we had been paying. As an example, one recently released title had been $40 for the ebook version; it increased to $120 as of March 1. The print version, with the library discount, is a little over $20.
Basically, the new Random House prices for ebooks to ebook distributors, not directly to libraries are
In spite of these hefty price increases, libraries welcome that Random House continues to offer titles in ebook format to libraries.
Again, as I wrote previously, Penguin Books are not available in ebook format to public libraries. They publish many bestsellers and we, like all libraries, regret we cannot provide them to our users.
Bottom line: please know we will continue to provide ebooks as they are available and affordable for public libraries. Some titles we cannot provide at all, due to publisher restrictions, others we may not be able to provide until several months after their initial release.
The market continues to evolve.
Most libraries, including KPL, experienced a strong increase in the circulation of ebooks after the holidays. Obviously readers were a popular holiday gift. Ebook users have learned how to download books from OverDrive through our website and many have attended our training or Q & A sessions.
In addition to titles available through the OverDrive consortium, we purchase additional copies of popular titles available to KPL resident cardholders. However patrons often ask why a particular popular title isn't available in ebook format.
All publishers will sell us print copies, but not necessarily ebook copies. Their policies and approach vary considerably:
Bottom line: the availability of a popular title in ebook format through a public library depends upon the publisher. Ebook lending through public libraries is still evolving and the specifics change frequently. Be assured, however, that we continue to follow the market closely and purchase popular titles available to us. Even if we don't have the title in ebook format, we will have it in print.
This is the week of the 9th annual Teen Filmmaker Festival; Sunday, February 26, 2:30 pm at Rave Motion Pictures in downtown Kalamazoo.
As in years past, we put out the call for teen-produced and directed films by Michigan teens from 13—18 years old. Films from the finalists will be shown at this special event, open to movie fans of all ages.
Prizes will be awarded for best film, best animation, best experimental film, best documentary, best short film, best technical merit, best music video, and judges' choice; the people's choice award will be chosen by the audience.
If past years are any indication, there will be a wide variety of creative films with interesting technical effects, some funny, some serious. I expect to once again be amazed by what these teens have produced.
Although the festival is free, tickets are needed. The Rave will be distributing tickets on a first-come, first served basis on Sunday, the day of the festival, beginning at 11 am when they open.
See you there.
The availability of e-books through public libraries is ever changing.
Libraries, including KPL, offer downloadable e-books through a vendor–OverDrive. Publishers offer their titles to OverDrive, libraries purchase titles in e-book format through OverDrive, patrons download e-books to their device through their home library using the OverDrive technology.
Three of the major publishers have not allowed their titles to be purchased by public libraries through OverDrive: Macmillian, Simon & Schuster, and Hachette. Just this week, Penguin announced they too will no longer offer their titles in downloadable format for public libraries to purchase. (Read more)
With this move, Random House is the only big-six publisher allowing unrestricted access to its e-books through libraries. HarperCollins does work with libraries, but has implemented a limit of 26 uses or checkouts of the title before it must be "repurchased."
If you don't find a particular e-book title available for download though our catalog, quite likely it is from a publisher who will not sell to public libraries.
The American Library Association is continuing to talk with publishers about the future of e-book availability for lending through libraries. We, along with the entire library community, share your frustrations with this ever changing e-book situation, both the availability of titles and the process of downloading to various devices. Stay tuned.

Do you know blackness when you see it? This is the question Dr. Yaba Blay, one of today's leading voices on global skin color politics, asks with her new book, (1)ne Drop: Shifting the Lens on Race. The book officially releases this week from Blay's recently-launched independent press company, BLACKprint Press.
Yaba introduced (1)ne Drop to her quickly expanding network of followers earlier this year, and over the summer successfully ran a Kickstarter pre-sale campaign, which raised over $22,000 to fund the project. Since then, (1)ne Drop has been generating some serious buzz. In the last month alone, Yaba has appeared on W. Kumau Bell's show, Totally Unbiased, presented a sold-out show as part of the First Person Arts Festival, and even graced the front cover of the Philadelphia Weekly.
To celebrate (1)ne Drop's early successes and the book's official release, Yaba is throwing a release party at The Painted Bride Art Center in Old City—and appropriately on Black Friday. The event will feature light fare, wine, and a fresh soundtrack provided courtesy of Mr. Sonny James of the Illvibe Collective. Also, party guests can browse an amazing two-floor exhibit of the portraits from the (1)ne Drop in the Painted Bride's gallery space.
The event is totally free, so make sure you grab a copy of Dr. Blay's book. And, since it is Black Friday, you might just want to pick up a couple of extra copies to hand out as gifts during the holiday. We'll see you there.
Event Details:
When: Friday, November 29, 6 - 9 p.m.
Where: The Painted Bride Art Center, 230 Vine Street
Cost: FREE

text: It's not who you know, but what you wear. Such is the advice from dedicated followers of fashion and others who might urge us to declare our identities and allegiances through the codes of consumption. The pursuit of the good life has been replaced by that of the goods life. As the globalization process seeks to expand the market economy, this expansion requires the manufacture of desire for ever more stuff and an industry devoted to the creation of the false hope that just one more purchase may buy happiness. This course tackles some of the most compelling interpretations of the function of consumption. Through exposure to a variety of contemporary and classical theories, students reflect on the social patterns of consumption and how these patterns reproduce, subvert or reformulate inequalities. In order to promote self-reflexivity about our own role in the marketplace, methods of resistance are studied and arguments for ecological constraint are considered.
