StewMac ALWAYS has the part, quality and a wide assortment of things I need. I needed the 9.5 radius sander and they had it. Worked perfect.
No complaints - a big precisely curved chunk of wood. I haven't seen a need to get the fancy sticky sandpaper - regular stuff and normal sanding block techniques work just fine.
I've purchased a few of these for use during setup jobs. They work like a charm with the self adhesive sand paper and are high quality hard wood.
I recently received my 16" block and just finalized my first fretboard planing. Perfect result. One very satisfied customer.
Worked perfectly, hard to imagine trying to get a perfect radius without it.
The 8 inch sanding block made quick work of re-radiusing my own bass neck. Could not be happier with it.
Ces cales à radiuser sont d'excellente qualité > je recommande !
Necesitaba rectificar el mástil de Maple de mi Strat. antes de colocar nuevos trastes. Con éste artículo ha quedado el mástil con su radio de 9,5" perfectos y sin esfuerzo. Os lo Recomiendo!!
I've used them several times and with great results. You can sand with confidence. Very good radius blocks.
I use these blocks to radius fretboards and flush up inlays. Indispensable. While you can make these yourself in your shop, the stew mac blocks are so well designed and inexpensive, it isn't worth the effort of setting up all the jigs and fixtures to make one from scratch.

Samsung SCH-A790 Review
Finally, Verizon Wireless is adding a GSM phone to their product line. In fact, it is the first phone in the United States that can roam on both GSM and CDMA networks. Not bad. The reviewer notes that while it is nice to finally have GSM on Verizon, GSM roaming is going to cost you a pretty penny. It seems Verizon is slowly starting to offer the features that those on other carriers already have, starting with the Motorola V710 with Bluetooth. Now if only they would make these things as user friendly as the other carriers. And what the hell is up with the keypad?

Loading... The Art Forger (2012)by B. A. Shapiro
Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. Museum-goer, art-lover and a Boston resident for the past 30+ years, I've been deeply immersed in Isabella Stewart Gardner, her lovely gem of a museum and the decades old art heist. This book intrigued me from the start. There is much that she gets so right: Her description of Boston's neighborhoods, its closed in, small art world. The Gardner's quirky galleries and even quirkier rules abiding by Mrs. Jack's will. Even the characters' visceral reaction to the beautiful art around them. (I grieve the loss of that Vermeer in a physical way). Admittedly, the two main characters can be tiresome and their relationship more so. I cared far less bout that than the creation of copies, Degas and the hypothetical painting at the center of this tale. (Oh, that such a painting actually existed and that we have at least one of these splendid artworks returned!). If this tale intrigues you, I would recommend checking out the various websites (including the FBI's), articles and books about the heist. I recommend even more highly further exposure to the remarkable woman who was so much more than her times would allow, Isabella Stewart Gardner. I didn't like the first half of the book much -- flat characters, boring writing, and Claire Roth, the main character, I found to be annoyingly naiive, even stupid. The second half is when the action picks up, and I enjoyed it so much more, but still didn't like Claire Roth. Hindered by an art scandal she was involved in before finishing grad school, Claire Roth is a promising Boston artist struggling to make ends meet. She dreams of discovery, fame, and a coveted showcase at Markel G – Aidan Markel's renowned gallery (capable of making an artist's career). Eking out a living selling famed reproductions through an art clearing house, Claire is stunned when Aidan asks for a meeting at her studio and offers her the proverbial deal with the devil- an opportunity to study and forge a Degas stolen in the infamous Isabella Stewart Gardner Collection in exchange for cash and a gallery showcase. Even with her checkered past, Claire finds the deal irresistible, but complications ensue when she suspects and sets out to prove the famed painting is fake. If you ever fancied yourself an artist or have hovered with interest on the doings of that world, Shapiro draws a picture that easily give you an idea of the passion and the stakes involved in the creation of works of art. Shapiro's narrative alternates between Claire's present day dilemma with the world and letters of a young Isabella Gardner who is fascinated with artists, and constantly traveling and buying pieces for her collection. Claire getting caught up the way that she did in a second scandal was problematic for me, but interesting to ponder. Whether you can make the same crucial error of judgement more than once, and with so high stakes. It was interesting to examine her thought process, but this worked best for me as a mystery – what happened to the art in the heist, is the painting a fake, is she in love with the wrong man? The questions were many, and The Art Forger is a smart mystery that will you on the hook and guessing almost until the end. Recommended. Really enjoyed this and read it in just two sittings. The foggy ethics of the deal that the main character accepts at the start of the novel make for an immediately compelling premise, and the excellent writing keeps the tension high throughout the novel.But one of my favorite parts of the novel is the engaging descriptions of the art, from the artist's passion in observing others' art to the actual process of its creation and recreation--may not sound rivoting, but in this author's hands it is.One of the more beautiful page-turners that I've read... My only criticism may be in the resolution of the mystery of the lost painting--a bit too conveniently tied up.
Readers looking for insight into the Gardner heist will have to go elsewhere. But readers seeking an engaging novel about artists and art scandals will find "The Art Forger" rewarding for its skillful balance of brisk plotting, significant emotional depth and a multi-layered narration rich with a sense of moral consequence.
References to this work on external resources. Wikipedia in EnglishNone No descriptions found. Boston painter Claire Roth has survived financially by painting reproductions, so when influential gallery owner Aiden Markel arrives with a bizarre proposal--her own show if she will forge a copy of a Degas, one of the pictures stolen from the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum--she says yes. As she works, Claire and Aiden become lovers, but she doesn't tell him about her discovery that the stolen Degas is itself a copy. This knowledge is Claire's lifeline when the finished forgery is discovered, Aiden and then Claire are both arrested, and only she can save them.… (more) |

University-Funded || Transfer Students || Federal/State || Application Procedures || Other Payment Options || More Information || Federal Loans || Endowed Scholarships
Marywood University offers a comprehensive program of financial aid to assist students in meeting educational costs. Eligibility for federal and state-funded programs is based upon demonstrated financial need. In determining financial need, a federal eligibility formula is used to analyze family income and assets. In addition, the University also awards scholarships/grants from institutional sources on the basis of academic merit, without regard to financial need. Accepted students at Marywood University are considered for all financial assistance programs for which they qualify. 99 percent of incoming first-time students receive some type of financial assistance. Over $27,000,000 in institutional aid is awarded each academic year to Marywood students.
Marywood University Scholars Program recognizes undergraduate students who have demonstrated their outstanding academic abilities. Candidates for the freshman class whose combined Critical Reading and Math scores of the SAT are 1200 or higher and whose six-semester high school GPA is 3.50 or higher (on a 4.00 scale) are considered for these awards. Candidates for these awards must have applied and been accepted to Marywood prior to December 15 of their senior year in high school.
These awards are only available for full-time students entering in the fall semester. These awards are renewable for up to eight (8) fulltime undergraduate semesters. Students are required to maintain full-time status and a minimum 3.25 cumulative grade point average to renew the award each academic year. Since the Marywood University Scholar Program supports undergraduate studies, this award ceases upon completion of undergraduate degree requirements.
IHM Scholarships recognize students whose combined SAT scores are typically 1150 or above (based on Math and Critical Reading only) and who rank academically among the upper fifth of their graduating class. Transfer students are also eligible for consideration based upon their prior postsecondary academic records. The number of awards and scholarship amounts vary from year to year.
Marywood University Grants are awarded to students who demonstrate academic ability. These grants vary in value depending upon the applicant's academic profile and financial need.
Talent Awards are made to students who demonstrate outstanding proficiency in music, art, theatre or communication arts and who plan to major in one of these areas at Marywood. Talent is demonstrated through evaluation of an art portfolio, a music audition, a communication arts portfolio, or participation in the annual theatre competition. Evaluations must be completed by March 1.
Maxis/Gillet Service Awards. The University grants service awards to incoming students who have demonstrated outstanding service to the community during their high school years and have a commitment to continue that service while enrolled at Marywood. To be considered for this award, the applicant must be accepted for admission and complete the Maxis/Gillet Service Award Application by January 28. For more information, contact the Office of Collegiate Volunteers or Campus Ministry at 570-961-4723 or visit www.marywood.edu/www2/stu_life/campmin/home.htm.
Marywood Scholarships/Grants are renewable for a total of eight (8) full time semesters of undergraduate study, if the student maintains the required minimum cumulative QPA of 3.00 for an IHM scholarship and 2.50 for a grant.
In addition to the scholarships listed above, transfer students also qualify for:
Phi Theta Kappa Scholarships are awarded to transfer students who are members of this International Scholastic Order of two-year colleges. A minimum transfer QPA of 3.50 is required for consideration for this scholarship as well as an earned associate degree. The student must enroll at Marywood immediately upon graduation from a two-year college. Proof of PTK membership is required. This scholarship is renewable if the recipient maintains a minimum of a 3.00 cumulative QPA at Marywood University. Part-time students are not eligible for this award.
Marywood participates in all established programs of federal/state financial aid, which includes the following: Federal Pell Grants, Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants (FSEOG), Federal Perkins Loans, Federal Academic Competitiveness Grants (ACG), National Science & Math Access to Retain Talent Grant (SMART), Federal Direct Student Loans, and Federal Work-Study Programs. Parents can borrow under the Federal Direct Parent Loan (PLUS) Program. Students who are residents of Pennsylvania can apply for the PHEAA State Grant; residents of other states can apply through their respective State Higher Education Assistance Agency for state grant/scholarship consideration. Students should also investigate other scholarships/grants available through local, civic, religious and fraternal organizations, as well as Veterans Benefits or Office of Vocational Rehabilitation (OVR) funds, if eligible. Students are personally responsible for contacting these agencies directly.
To apply for any type of financial assistance at Marywood University, freshmen and new transfer students must:
All federal, state and need-based financial aid is awarded for an academic year period only. Using the FAFSA, students must re-apply each academic year, if they wish to continue receiving such assistance. The Federal School Code for Marywood University is 003296.
The deadline for upperclassmen applications is usually April 15. If one misses the deadline date (either for incoming freshmen/transfer students or upperclassmen), certain funds may not be available.
QuikPay: QuikPay is a secure on-line student account billing and payment system, which allows the student or authorized payer(s), such as parents or guardians, to view the student account bill on-line, print the bill, and make online payments to their student's account. Students and authorized payers will receive an e-mail notification when a new student account bill is available.
The QuikPay system allows for electronic payments from a personal checking or savings account or credit card. (PLEASE NOTE: Credit card usage is limited to MasterCard, Discover, and American Express. There will be a convenience fee of 2.75% added to each credit card payment when using this service. This fee is not associated with nor passed on to Marywood University.)
Payment Plan: Marywood University has partnered with a third party vendor, Nelnet Business Solutions, to accomodate students who wish to make tuition payments monthly. Students can arrange for monthly automatic payments from a checking or savings account or by credit card. Payers will have the option of having the Nelnet site retain their bank account information, or it may be entered each time a payment is made. A $40.00 per semester nonrefundable payment plan fee will be charged for this option. Once your account has been established, it will be referred to as My FACTS Account. This option is only available for the Fall and Spring Semesters. If you have any questions, please contact Nelnet directly at 1-800-609-8056.
Payment by Credit Cards: Marywood University will no longer accept direct credit card payments for tuition, fees, room and board. Credit card payments may be made through the QuikPay system, as described above.
If you would like more information about financial aid at Marywood, contact the Office of Financial Aid:

Students who are enrolled on at least a half-time basis (6 credits per semester) may borrow under the Federal Direct Student Loan Program to assist with educational expenses. Applicants who meet federal eligibility requirements will receive a "subsidized" loan whereby the interest payments will be made by the federal government until the student is graduated or leaves school for any reason. Applicants who do not qualify for federal interest subsidy will receive an "unsubsidized" loan whereby the interest payments must be paid by the student. In both cases, the principal balance of the loan is deferred until the student is graduated or leaves school for any reason.
Parents of undergraduate students may borrow under the Federal Direct Parent Loan (PLUS) Program to help cover educational expenses. Under the Federal Direct PLUS Program, parents can borrow up to a maximum of the cost of attending Marywood University less any financial aid received by the student. Repayment of both principal and interest usually begins sixty (60) days after the funds are disbursed.
There are a number of lending institutions that have developed Alternative Loan programs to assist students in meeting educational costs. These Alternative Loans are in addition to the Federal Direct Student Loan and Federal Direct PLUS Loan programs sponsored by the federal government. A listing of current Alternative Loan options is available from the Office of Financial Aid or the Cashier's Office at Marywood.
Marywood University uses the Borrower-Based Academic Year policy for the processing of all student loan applications. This policy is as follows:
The Borrower-Based Academic Year is individualized for each borrower and may begin at any time within the school's Scheduled Academic year based on the student's start date in his/her program of study. The Borrower-Based Academic Year must meet the statutory requirements of an academic year or its equivalence. Equivalence for a Borrower-Based Academic Year at a term-based school is determined in two steps:
IMPORTANT: In your best interest, Marywood University urges you to use discretion in borrowing money for school. In signing the loan application/promissory note, you are making a commitment to repay that loan. If you should default on your loan, the federal government can sue for collection, attach your wages, and/or withhold income tax refunds. In addition, your future credit rating will be affected. Therefore, borrow only those funds that are absolutely necessary for your educational expenses. All borrowers are required by Federal Law to complete an exit interview with the Office of Financial Aid prior to graduation, withdrawal, or leave of absence from Marywood University.
Residents of Pennsylvania can apply for a PHEAA State Grant through the Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency (PHEAA), Harrisburg, PA. By completing the steps outlined under "Application Procedures" eligible students will be processed for a PHEAA State Grant and notified by PHEAA of their status. Residents of other states should follow the State Scholarship/Grant application procedures established by their respective State Higher Education Assistance Agency.
In compliance with federal laws, financial aid recipients must make satisfactory academic progress each academic year according to standards established by the federal/state governments. Marywood University's Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy is available on the Office of Financial Aid webpage. Print copies are available at the Office of Financial Aid.
The financial aid information listed in this catalog is current as of 2011. The University reserves the right, based upon changes in federal/state regulations and/or University policy, to amend such information when required or deemed appropriate.

by Bob Schwartz
My recent revelation might be aptly titled "The Laziness of the Long Distance Runner." I have finally given in to the truth that I am a couch potato hiding within a runner's body, an indolent who does intervals, a laggard who does long distance. I am a runner and I am lazy. I know that sounds like an oxymoron but it's accurate. To borrow from the philosopher Descartes, "I run, therefore I sit." I suppose this puts me into quite a small and select group of runners. I'm one of the few, the not terribly proud, the slothful.
The fact is I've tried to deny the depth of my languor for as long as I've been a runner. I know all the many positive effects that running can bring - better health, more self-confidence, enjoyment of the outdoors etc. I had initially honed into the philosophy I ran so I would have this incredible reservoir of energy throughout the day. However, as I sat glued to my comfortable chair after a Sunday morning twenty miler, there came a point in which it did no good to deny the obvious. Once the euphoria and adrenaline rush of a good run was over, I returned to my roots of habitual inactivity. I could compete with the best the non-runners could offer in the area of lethargy. However, in my mind, it was clearly better to have run and been languid than to have never run at all.
I've convinced myself that the best method of run recovery is to remain immobile for as long as humanly possible. Suspended animation before and after a run is the key to my enjoyment of running. Everyone has their particular area of specialty and I believe I've brought post run idleness to new heights of expertise. The 1970's brought us the training benefits of LSD (Long Slow Distance) while I bring the 1990's PSR (Prolonged Supine Recovery).
I've further convinced myself one of the reasons for my laziness is that it is a sacrifice I must make for the benefit of my running. My training log accumulates only miles. It has no space for how much time I was on my feet cleaning out the garage or pruning the shrubs; nor does it have an entry for how long I played basketball on Saturday afternoon or how many times I used the stairs instead of the elevator.
My philosophy is if I'm going to break my 1OK PR in the near future, I've got to be sedentary as much as I can during my non running time. I must look for every possible edge I can get. If that means buying a ranch house so I can avoid the toll on my legs of walking up and down stairs a couple of times a day, then so be it. If it means driving around for fifteen minutes looking for that parking spot a little closer to my destination, I can do it. I may not have the most natural speed or endurance as my running competitors, but I have the ability to put my post running time to the greatest benefit. I can make the most of any chance for idling.
They say the lazy always want to do something. Well, once my run is complete I'm not looking to do anything. I've already done it. Running provides me the opportunity to enjoy my inaction without guilt. If I didn't run then I would have to admit to being somewhat embarrassed to be as lazy as I am. However, since I run, I show no remorse for my fits of inactivity. I have, without any contrition, divided my day into two periods - running and dormancy.
Now, as I lay supine on my family room floor - a little too indolent to even contemplate mowing the lawn - I know that I am in much different company than most couch potatoes in America. I am a runner first, lazy second. For me, these are not mutually exclusive terms. Without one, I couldn't enjoy the other. Before my friends and neighbors pass judgement on me, I always say, run eight miles of fartlecks in my shoes. In the meantime, could you please pass me the remote?

Since 2006 our graduating classes have given a class gift as their legacy to Rutgers School of Law–Newark. The enthusiasm and desire of young graduates to thank, give back and support the law school is evident in their high participation rates.
In 2009 a new tradition was born: a class fund competition among graduating and current students to determine which class will have the highest participation rate, and consequently, bragging rights!
Young alumni and current students are now recognized in our annual Honor Roll of Donors for their gifts to their class funds and all other law school funds.
Participation rates by class for the 2011 competition are:
Click on the class fund to see the names of all donors and read the news release for details on the very successful 2011 class funds competition.
In addition to the 175 students who made a gift to their class fund, 21 professors and staff of the law school also participated, and BARBRI gave another generous donation to the graduating class of 2011. Overall student participation this year is 21%, up from 19.2% Since the competition began almost $10,000 has been raised, $6,900 of that was generated this year!
Special thanks to Dean Farmer and BARBRI for their generous support of the competition kickoff party. And kudos to the class co-chairs for their energy, persistence and creativity:
Class of 2011: Heidi Arnesen, Zaara Bajwa, Brian Biglin, Rob Menendez
Class of 2012: Guillermo Artiles, Amanda Curley, Andrew Yu
Class of 2013: Christina DeSimone, Randy Gray, Alex Hayes, Layla Lester, Sylvia Medina, Ben Zhang
The Class of 2012 co-chairs are already planning ways to outdo the Class of 2011. Additional gifts to any of the class funds can be made at any time by anyone. Download a gift/pledge form! For more information, please e-mail or call the development office at 973-353-5094.

Shock to the System
Bumpy road turns smooth for the Tulsa Shock
When the Shock debuted in 1998 in Detroit, everything was far from spectacular. After going through two head coaches and posting a record of 65-93 in their first five seasons, the team was looking for a change -- and got it when they hired Detroit Pistons legend, Bill Laimbeer during the 2002 season. Although the Shock finished 9-23 that year, Laimbeer's motivation and drive influenced his team and the front office to turn things around and become contenders.
In order to contend, the team had to create new ways to win. The first step was to rearrange their roster. All of that hard work led to a big reward when the Shock defeated the heavily favored Los Angeles Sparks to be crowned the WNBA champion in 2003. This feat would catapult the Shock to greatness, when they were also crowned WNBA champions in 2006 and 2008. But like the saying goes "... all good things must come to an end," and that is exactly what happened in 2009. After missing the WNBA Finals for the first time since their 2005 season, the Shock had played their last game in Detroit. In late 2009, the announcement came that the Shock would move from Detroit to Tulsa.
The transition from Detroit to Tulsa wasn't an easy one for the Shock. Investors were hit with a severe blow when several Shock players didn't make the move with the team: Cheryl Ford was plagued by injuries, Taj McWilliams-Franklin signed a free agent contract with New York Liberty, Deanna Nolan decided to step away from the game of basketball and Katie Smith signed with Washington Mystics. On top of these players not making the journey, by the middle of the 2010 season, no Detroit players were on the team.
There would be a familiar face to Tulsans on the sidelines, though: Former University of Tulsa basketball coach Nolan Richardson was named head coach and general manager. With the team finishing 6-28 during their inaugural season, they missed the playoffs for the first time since 2002. But the Shock was rewarded with the second pick in the 2011 WNBA Draft and signed WNBA veteran, Sheryl Swoopes and former Olympic Track star, Marion Jones. But between all the roster changes and Jones ending up being a bust, Richardson stepped down as coach and the team finished 3-31.
After going 9-59 in their first two seasons, the Shock franchise is now recreating itself for the 2012 season. On January 4, 2012, Gary Kloppenburg was named Head Coach of the Tulsa Shock. Before making his way to Tulsa, Kloppenburg spent four years as an assistant coach with the WNBA team, Indiana Fever. He also spent time as part of the staff for the NBA team, Charlotte Bobcats.
Gavin Elliott |
Known as a defensive genius, Kloppenburg feels he can bring glory back to the Shock. "I feel like I can come in and make a difference and try to rebuild the Shock. The fans here are extremely supportive and I'm passionate about building a winning team for them and this entire community," Kloppenburg said. And with his passion for the game and instilling his philosophy of defense, it has shown here recently. As of May 31, the Shock had forced 104 turnovers, which ranks them 1st in defense in the WNBA. And with expectations being high this season, Kloppenburg plans to meet those expectations.
"My expectation for this season is that we ... be a very competitive team and have a chance to be in or win every game," Kloppenburg said. Jennifer Lacy, who plays forward for the Shock, has some pretty high expectations herself. "My expectations are extremely high for this season. I think that we have all the pieces in order now. It would be an extreme let down to not get significantly better than we have been in the past. I believe in this team and I just think we are a lot better than years past," Lacy said. With Kloppenburg guiding the Shock into the future, basketball fans of all ages have something to look forward to this season.
This season is all about improvement for the Shock, and Shock fans should remain patient because rebuilding a team takes time. Kloppenburg is the right man for the job and if the team should finish above last place in the Western Conference, expect to hear Gary Kloppenburg's name when he wins Coach of the Year. Although the road has been a bumpy one for the team, it looks like time is finally on the Shock's side and Shock fans have been there through it all. "I would have to say the fans and the support from the community. We've had some tough times here in Tulsa and they have stuck with us throughout. It's just really great to see them at every game and feel that support and love from them," Lacy said.
With a new energy pumped back into the team, basketball fans should go see what the buzz is about. "They should come out and watch us play because we're exciting to watch. We play hard. We are competitors and you can see the passion that we have in every possession," Lacy said. Fans of all ages can catch all Shock home games at the BOK Center. You can catch their next home game on Friday, June 15, when the Shock face the Seattle Storm. Tipoff is at 7:30pm and tickets can be purchased at the BOK Center ticket office or online at wnba.com/shock.

Jag's balancing act
24 November 2006
Check this out. Jag, the gorgeous big koala in our photo, weighs a whopping 9kg. And Jag has decided that his favourite seat for the month is a tiny branch about 5cm in diameter! Uncomfortable, you think? Definitely not for a koala.
Jag, like all koalas, has a hard, bony plate in his rump, so sitting like this all day is no trouble at all. In fact, it's a breeze – literally. By sitting up so high in the tree tops and by dangling his arms and legs out, he is taking advantage of the cool breezes to help lower his body temperature and cope with our hot, humid climate. And there's one other reason Jag likes to sit so high up in the trees – to fool our visitors, of course! Jag lives in the koala exhibit right near the entrance to the Zoo. As excited guests come in to the Zoo hoping to see a koala for the very first time, they scan the enclosure and forget to look up above their heads, where Jag will be perched doing his famous balancing act and not making a sound.
So make sure, if you're ever in the Zoo or spotting koalas out in the wild, to take a good look right up high in the tree-tops for that gorgeous big ball of fur.
Our Amazing Koalas
Koalas vary in size and colour depending on where they live in Australia. Koalas found in the southern distributions (Southern NSW and Victoria) tend to be ...more

Although Janeane Garofalo does her best to fake her way through her role in Erika Sheffer's new play "Russian Transport," in which she plays Diana, an overprotective Jewish mother who often breaks into Russian and speaks with a thick accent, you can immediately tell that she doesn't actually speak the language.
This intense, even gripping melodrama explores...

A I O VOL A TRADITION SINCE 1923 - TOR A GREATER l.OVOl.A" THE MAROON VOL 86, NO. 15 WWW.I.OYOIAMAROON .COM FRIDAY, JANUARY 25, 2008 Hurricane-halted recycling to resume Program should commence in early February By KATY BODIN CONTRIBUTING WRITER Loyola is going green. With the support of the Loyola University Community Action Program, Loyola's administration and biology instructor Kathy Anzelmo, students will soon see recycling bins covering the campus. The familiar blue bins will appear in every building on campus to collect paper, magazines, newspapers and aluminum. The project is still in the planning process, but should be in full swing by early February. LUCAP will have a table set up in front of the Danna Center for one week in February to educate students about what gets recycled and hand out brochures listing specific locations of the bins. This is the first time the recycling program will return to Loyola since Hurricane Katrina hit in 2005. Anzelmo first put her recycling plan into action almost 40 years ago when she started recycling programs at local schools. "I want the students to be educated about the benefits of recycling. After Katrina, it was in my heart to do more than just help and educate. I needed to actually do it," Anzelmo said. With support from the administration and LUCAP, Anzelmo kicked her recycling plan for Loyola into gear. She asked for the opinion of the environmental studies faculty in early November and then headed to LUCAP. LUCAP adviser Rick Yelton and the students of LUCAP were thrilled to help with the project. They hope to have a full-scale recycling program on campus within months. "BFI dropped recycling and it has been tough financially to have a recycling program here on campus," Yelton said. The funds may be difficult to gather, but Anzelmo has a plan. "We are starting the program with a very small budget that comes from donations and an administrative supplement," she said. "We will make fifteen dollars for every ton that we recycle which will go into a newly established recycling fund. The fund will help to pay Crime sweeps university area By JAUNE JACKSON THE MAROON five armed robberies within a four-day period. He said the university addressed the problem by placing police on 12- hour patrol and brought in extra personnel to supplement their forces. Bailey said the crimes committed against the Loyola community for the most part mirrored the crimes against the Tulane community. Bouyelas discussed the NOPD's role in helping to deter crime in the Second District. He updated panel attendees on the arrest of one of the two suspects in recent armed robberies in the university area. The other suspect, Eldrin George, is still at large. Tulane Capt. Reid Noble said students must also take part in protecting themselves from crime by not walking alone, walking in well-lit areas, staying alert and paying attention to their surroundings. "If you come out here at night, you are going to see on SAFE RIDE ON-CALI PROGRAM Armed robberies top the list of the most common crimes committed against members of Tulane and Loyola universities. At least that's the verdict from a Jan. 16 panel discussion, which brought people from both universities together to discuss crime in the university-area neighborhoods. Loyola Police Chief Patrick Bailey joined Tulane police and Maj. Kirk Bouyelas, New Orleans Police Department's Second District commander, in a discussion on what can be done about the area's recent increase in crime. Kevin Bailey, assistant vice president of student affairs at Tulane, moderated the meeting. Bailey and Tulane's Col. Jack Leblanc began the meeting, held at Tulane's Rogers Memorial Chapel, by announcing Tulane and Loyola's crime statistics for the fall semester. Leblanc reported that Tulane students experienced Police officials from Loyola, Tulane and NOPD discussed the influx of crime in the university area during a recent panel In an effort to deter crime, Loyola and Tulane police have collaborated to provide free rides to students. A shuttle will run Thursday through Sunday. 8 p.m. to 4 a.m., and will travel a 1-mile radius, from South Carrollton Ave. to Jefferson Ave. Those in need of a ride are to call (504)865-5381. from Safe Ride On-Call flyer NO NEED FOR ALARM CATHERIN COTTON/THE MAROON Music students Woody Rinker, junior, and Eric Fancher, senior, play an impromptu concert in the Palm Court after a fire alarm sounded in the Music/Communications Complex on Tuesday for a second time that day. The University Police were testing a new fire alarm system. Team in poor cheer after recent upsets Low numbers and inability to find a coach may signal shutdown for Loyola's cheerleaders By ROSIE DAO SENIOR STAFF WRITFR Loyola's cheerleading squad has not been in high spirits lately, faced with thoughts of a possible shutdown. At the beginning of the academic year, the team began with 10 girls, but that number has dwindled down to five — all managing without a licensed coach. Michelle Lu, finance sophomore and captain of the squad, said their biggest challenge is finding a licensed coach in order to tumble and perform stunts legally. When last season's coach and adviser Crystal Guidry, processing and records specialist for admissions, left the squad for personal reasons, the team immediately began looking both on and off campus for someone new, Lu said. Cecilia Montenegro, technicaltechnical services assistant for Monroe Library, volunteered to fill the position as the squad's adviser and initially was going to be the coach as well, but did not have a license. A license is required to ensure the safety and correct instruction of the squad. In late October, the cheerleaders recommended a New Orleans Saints cheerleader as a possible candidate to the Athletic Department. "We agreed that this would be it an improvement to their program and found the funds for this position," Michael Giorlando, athletics director, said. Lu said the situation began to look hopeful even though the Saintsation was going to charge $4 per team member, per hour.

Observations and results
Did plugging your nose make it difficult to distinguish a jelly bean's flavor? Could you and your partner recognize a flavor just by sniffing the crushed candies?
When you cannot smell the jelly bean you are eating, you can only taste the candy's sweetness—and that's not enough information to tell which flavor you are chewing. This demonstrates how much we rely on our sense of smell when we "taste" food—much of the experience comes from scents rather than taste itself. This is also why everything tastes bland when you have a cold: Your stuffy nose keeps you from enjoying the full olfactory experience. In addition to scent and taste, other factors including a food's temperature and texture affect how you experience and interpret each bite.

- Difficulty: Moderate
Upgrade your storage with a new hard drive.
Edit Step 2 ¶
Carefully insert a small flathead screwdriver in the seam between the metal casing and white plastic top. Use the screwdriver to pry up the white plastic top bezel. Be careful not to damage the soft plastic with your screwdriver.
The top bezel is held on with an adhesive, so it may be necessary to pry up in several different locations to free the part.
To make this job easier, heat up the adhesive with a hairdryer on low heat for a few seconds.
Edit Step 5 ¶
A small pair of snap ring pliers is the easiest tool to remove the metal retaining bracket.
You can also use a flathead screwdriver to pry out the metal retaining bracket beneath the bottom bezel as shown. You can free the bracket by first pushing in the metal arms on the corners and then lifting the bracket.

- IMS New Media Member Conklin Honored With Technology Award
October 10, 2012 | By Paul Kelly
IMS New Media Member Conklin Honored With Technology Award
Indianapolis Motor Speedway New Media staff member Cassie Conklin received the Rising Star Award at the Indiana Women and Hi Tech Leading Light Awards ceremony Tuesday, Oct. 9 at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in downtown Indianapolis.
Conklin was honored for her outstanding work and involvement with various IMS social media initiatives. Conklin's contributions toward increasing and better positioning IMS' social media presence, Web content re-direction and the success of the IMS Social Media Garage at the Indianapolis 500, Kroger Super Weekend at the Brickyard and the Red Bull Indianapolis GP were cited as reasons for her selection.
"I am honored to receive this award, and I am very thankful for the opportunity to work with an organization like the Indianapolis Motor Speedway," Conklin said. "It has been particularly fun integrating today's exciting new technologies into a facility with history and tradition dating back over 100 years."
The Leading Light Awards honor women of achievement in science, education and technology. More than 400 of Indiana's most influential business and technology leaders were on hand to honor this year's award recipients.
Conklin has worked with IMS since April 2011 as a new media assistant. She is expected to graduate from Indiana University at Bloomington with a bachelor's degree in journalism in 2013.
"Our events are extremely exciting and high-tech, and our fans are looking for new and innovative ways to connect to our races and the IMS brand," said Rhonda Winter, chief information officer for the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. "Cassie added a lot of value to our team, and her energy, creative input and dedication helped us all succeed in offering a more compelling way for our fans to participate in and learn about the activities at our facility."
