Caught in an avalanche of scandals and other leadership fiascos, President Obama clearly recognizes a need for strategic messaging to distract the public and reconnect with his base. Unions are abandoning his signature ObamaCare legislation as an ObamaCurse, his proposed Syrian intervention has more than pin-pricked anti-war liberals, NSA spying on mainstream media faithful is regarded as downright ungrateful, and IRS targeting of enemies appears to channel an inner-Nixon. And, oh yeah, there's that pesky "At this point what does it really matter" Benghazi thing that still matters to at least some of us.
Then on top of that, there's the embarrassing impotence revealed by KGB alumnus Putin's lifeguard role rescuing a drowning community organizer who is obviously in over his head in global affairs. Russia and China continue to gain strength and influence as our military defenses rapidly deteriorate.
If it seems that while all of this might be plenty to worry about, it's not what the president would like us to "obsess" upon. No, there's another threat that he's much more eager to talk about…namely the lack of enough gun control laws.
Speaking on September 22 at the scene of the tragic Washington Navy Yard shooting of 12 people by shotgun-wielding Aaron Alexis, President Obama called for a transformation in the nation's gun laws to address an epidemic of violence saying "It ought to obsess us." He added, "Sometimes I fear there is a creeping resignation that these tragedies are just somehow the way it is, that this is somehow the new normal. We cannot accept this."
Blaming mass shootings in America on legislative failures "to keep guns out of the hands of criminals and dangerous people", he acknowledged that "the politics are difficult…"And that's sometimes where the resignation comes from: the sense that our politics are frozen and that nothing will change. Well, I cannot accept that," Obama said. "By now, though, it should be clear that the change we need will not come from Washington, even when tragedy strikes Washington. Change will come the only way it ever has come, and that's from the American people."
Pages Taken from the Dem's Gun Grab Playbook
Messaging taken directly from talking point guidelines presented in a 2012 anti-gun lobby report titled "Preventing Gun Violence Through Effective Messaging", the president and those of his same political stripe wasted no crisis exploiting the Navy Yard tragedy for political purposes. The nearly 80-page document produced by three opinion research polling firms lists as its number one "Key Messaging Principle", to always "…focus on emotional and value-driven arguments about gun violence, not the political food fight in Washington or wonky statistics."
Obama first spoke out on the Navy Yard event on September 21 when he urged a Congressional Black Caucus Foundation dinner "to get back up and go back at it" to push gun control legislation that stalled in the Senate earlier this year. He proposed such legislation in the aftermath of the horrific elementary school shooting in Newton, Connecticut that killed 20 first graders and six staff.
Then speaking at the memorial services on the following day, Obama said: "What wears on us, what troubles us so deeply as we gather here today, is how this senseless violence that took place in the Navy Yard echoes other recent tragedies. As president, I have now grieved with five American communities ripped apart by mass violence: Fort Hood, Tucson, Aurora, Sandy Hook and now the Washington Navy Yard. These mass shootings occur against a backdrop of daily tragedies as an epidemic of gun violence tears apart communities across America, from the streets of Chicago to neighborhoods not far from here."
Before day's end, other gun control proponents again jumped on the theme. California Democrat Dianne Feinstein called upon her colleagues to restart the debate on gun control and "do more to stop this endless loss of life."
Washington Mayor Vincent Gray also immediately advocated a legislative response, pointing out that one of the Navy Yard victims, Arthur Daniels, had already lost his 14-year-old son to gun violence. Then, citing a string of mass public shootings in recent years, he asked, "Why is it that these tragic consequences and these tragic occurrences never seem to move us any closer to ensuring that guns don't get into the hands of criminals or mentally unstable people?" Gray continued, "I don't know the answer. But I do know this — that this time it happened within the view of our Capitol dome, and I for one will not be silenced about the fact the time has come for action."
As reported by BBC News, some action by the Capitol Police which guards the U.S. Capitol complex which might have averted some deaths was ordered to stand down and told to leave the scene. Multiple sources in the department who wished to be unnamed told the BBC that its highly-trained and heavily-armed four-man Containment and Emergency Response Team (CERT) arrived outside Building 197 only a few minutes after the assault commenced.
Capitol Police officer Jim Konczos who leads the officer's union said that the CERT police train for active shooter situations and are expert marksmen. He conjectured that without that stand-down order, "Odds are it might have been a different outcome…It probably could have been neutralized."
Capitol Hill Police Chief Kim Dine has ordered a "comprehensive, independent review of the facts surrounding the Capitol Police's response to the Navy Yard shootings." The Capitol Police Board responded by establishing a "Fact Review Team" led by Michael Stenger, a former assistant director of the U.S. Secret Service. Gwendolyn Crump, a spokeswoman for the Metropolitan Police Department which protects the City of Washington, D.C. said that allegations of the stand-down order were untrue.
A None-GOP Elephant in the Washington, D.C. Gun Control Parlor
Senseless, horrible violence, by any means, deeply offends any normal person. Every responsible citizen wants realistic solutions. Still, nothing has been explained by Mayor Gray, the president or other government officials regarding why Aaron Alexis, a man with documented mental health problems, had been granted a security clearance to enter the restricted building where the shooting took place, or how he had managed to smuggle a shotgun onto the premises. Here is a guy who had been treated for serious mental illness, including "hearing voices", had reportedly appeared at work with a gun tucked in his waistband, and had been kicked out of the Navy in 2011 after firing a gun into his Fort Worth, Texas neighbor's apartment.
No sane people, NRA leaders and members very much included, would want anyone with serious mental disorders to be in possession of a firearm, and it's already illegal for anyone who has been adjudicated mentally ill, alcoholic or found guilty of domestic violence to purchase one. But it's also important to consider some very complex implications if Congress decides to deny gun possession rights to all people determined at some point in their lives to have had mental health issues. As John Velleco, a spokesman for Gun Owners of America, observed: "Do we put any person who's ever taken a psychoactive drug into the FBI database and disarm them forever?"
In addition to known mental issues, security-badged Aaron Alexis shared another psychological characteristic with other mass killers…a fascination with violent video games, one in particular. "Call of Duty" contains so much gore that Britain has banned its advertising during daytime hours. Newton school child murder Adam Lanza spent large amounts of time in a windowless basement playing the game.
Others who were fascinated with violent video games include Andres Behring, who mowed down 77 people in Norway, rehearsed his massacre playing Call of Duty and other video games up to 16 hours per day; Jacob Roberts who fired randomly at innocent victims in an Oregon mall food court killing two adults and wounding a 15-year-old girl before killing himself liked to play violent video games; James Holmes who slaughtered 12 in a Colorado theater was addicted to them; and Jared Louhner reportedly spent much of his time playing violent computer games before gunning down six, including a U.S. judge and Congresswoman Gabby Gifford outside an Arizona Safeway.
Then, There's that "Other" Tragic Gun Violence Issue
Gwainevere Catchings Hess, president of the Washington, D.C.-based Black Women's Agenda (BWA), Inc., an organization that strongly advocates strict gun-control legislation, rightly points out that "In 2009, black males ages 15-19 were eight times as likely as white males the same age, and 2.5 times as likely as their Hispanic peers to be killed in a gun homicide."
Those are terrible statistics, but here are more. Today, 72% of black children are born out of wedlock, as are 53% of Hispanic children and 36% of white children. Back in 1965, 25% of black children were born out of wedlock, nearly one-third fewer. As a result, promiscuous rappers, prosperous dope peddlers and street gang leaders are becoming ever more influential role models. It's probably no big stretch of imagination to correlate such grossly disproportionate crime and victimization rates with comparably staggering rates of single-parent families, those without fathers in particular.
Would tightening gun laws even more, or "requiring" youth gang member background checks, change these disturbing influences?
Finally, Let's Review Some Fundamental Realities
First, following the solid Senate defeat of Obama and other Dem proposals, there is no imminent federal-level gun control legislation. The president knows this, and so do Harry Reid and other leaders of his party in Congress.
State- level initiatives in California and some other liberal strongholds, however, are a different matter. In September, the Sacramento Senate passed a package of gun control bills that, among other things, would ban sale or purchase of any rifle that accepts a detachable magazine that can hold more than 10 rounds of ammunition. People who already own such weapons will be required to register them. California had already banned rifles with "large capacity" fixed magazines which cannot be removed.
And just how much will any such legislation accomplish in actually reducing gun violence? A study conducted by the Institute of Medicine and Natural Research Council under contract with the Centers for Disease Control last June concluded, for example, that:
- While there were "about 300,000 violent crimes in 2008," the estimated number of defensive uses of guns ranges "from about 500,000 to more than 3 million per year."
- "Whether gun restrictions reduce firearm-related violence is an unresolved issue."
- "Studies that directly assessed the effect of actual defensive uses of guns have found consistently lower injury rates among gun-using crime victims compared with victims who used other self-protective strategies."
- One "body of research" cited by the study (Kleck and Gertz, 1995) found "estimated annual gun use for self-defense" to be "up to 2.5 million incidents, suggesting that self-defense can be an important crime deterrent."
- "There is empirical evidence that gun turn-in programs are ineffective."
Nevertheless, even if there are no convincing violence-reduction benefits, don't expect the president and his fellow gun control panderers to miss the next tragic messaging opportunity. Not so long as it serves as a cheap-shot distraction from serious underlying causes that might really make a difference… or to draw public scrutiny away from other leadership policy failures.
After all, facts don't really matter. More important is to remember that number one playbook principle. Always "…focus on emotional and value-driven arguments about gun violence, not the political food fight in Washington or wonky statistics." Never doubt that they always will.

Not A Good Idea At All
Hmm. My new 12" PB got 2.5+ hours out of the box but after 10.2.4 I notice it now gets barely 2 hours on a full charge. The thing is a month old, tops! I wonder if the update had anything to do with it...

I suppose I will get used to it but I really miss Aero in Windows 8. Everything feels so flat, blocky and lifeless.
That's because they're trying to discourage you from using the "classic desktop" interface.
aero like the bubble thing that pops up when you hoover your mouse over a task bar icon? i thought windows 8 has no task bar icons no more? how can they make areo work for it--Happiness is like peeing your pants... Everyone can see it, but only you can feel its Warmth!!

I sort of feel like I'm back to using Windows 3.1. I guess people that had a death grip on Win2K might like this I recall the desktop looking better in the beta than it does in the final.

I installed and played with the Release Preview, and I remember Aero still being in it. And, by Aero, I mean the glass effect of the windows, the pop-up small thumbnail display when you would mouse over running applications in the task bar.However, I think it was called something else...like "glass theme" or something. I had to go into the display settings or something to turn that effect on. I don't have the Windows 8 Release preview installed now, so I cannot get the exact wording or location.So, it makes me wonder if the same is true in the RTM of Windows 8? The option may be there, just called something else?--Brian--============================--Brian PlencnerE-Mail: email@example.com: Kill Cancer to Reply via e-mail

You sure your video drivers are compatible? I had the same issue with the release preview until I updated to the nvidia beta drivers. That said something may have changed since then, but I doubt it.
If you're talking to me, I'm running Catalyst 12.8.
I am running RTM. Taskbar is transparent. Window borders not. No settings available to enable transparent windows. Not a driver issue, enabling this feature was removed, but you can get it by doing this dance:»www.tips-trick.com/how-to-enable···ndows-8/»www.symbianize.com/showthread.php?p=13100285The transparency seems pretty flaky - it's pure transparent or not, any change undoes the transparency--My place : »www.schettino.us
I'll get used to it over time. I recall the betas of the Win 8 desktop looked better. I sort of feel like I'm using one of those high contrast schemes.I suppose I should say "I miss Aero Glass" to be technically correct.
I seem to recall Microsoft gutted Aero at some point after the betas, which may be why most people remember glass being there before and not now.

I just discovered you can't even change the size of window borders without going into the registry. The smallest size you can get from there is even a bit too large.
Yep. Expect more changes...
I find the dynamic solid borders that replaced glass kind of difficult on the eyes. When they take on the predominant color of the wallpaper they actually vanish into the desktop more than a transparency does. It flies in the face of consistency.I'll probably be turning that off.
I was a Windows XP hold out. I hated Vista, the changes the performance. then I hoped for Windows 7, only to be disappointed that it was Vista with fixes but still too different for me. I know that windows 8 is much like 7 but there is something about it that really works for me. I will never give up on XP as a gamer, I can't.

I love pre workout.
It's amazing. 3 little scoops of ON Amino Energy and I went from feeling "bleh, I'm dreading this workout" to "omg let me get my workout clothes on ASAP so I can run and sweat and feel glorious!!".
And on that note, I'm going to go get sweatyyyy 😀💪🏃👟
Xtra-Surge is a great pre-workout supplement as well. It gives you energy to power through your workouts and is also a powerful thermogenic that helps burn body fat.
Xtra-Surge is a great pre-workout supplement pill
I have been looking for a new pre-workout pill for some time now as my workouts at the gym have been a bit lackluster. I used to be a big fan of ephedrine and products like the original jack3d and oxy elite pro that contained 1-3 dimethylamylamine. After wasting my money on some other products I finally came across Xtra-Surge and saw it had good reviews and ingredients so I figured I would give it a shot.
I find it to be a very potent product that I would even suggest try taking half of one at first to test it out as it is a strong pre-workout pill. I usually take half of one in the morning and then another half about 20 minutes before I get my workout in. I am sure everyone is different and may need a different dosage to get the same effects that I do. I am glad that I have finally found a product to replace the other ones I used to take. I fly through my cardio once again and am getting back to where I used to be. It is nice to have pre-workout pill to take to get me off the couch and actually make it to the gym once again. Like the other products I mentioned, just be sure not to take it to close to bed and start your dose low and work your way up to see what works best for you as I really love this pre-workout pill and don't know one other like it.

Indie Cool: What It Takes 0
When it comes to indie fashion, the topic covers from the cover for the head to the bottom of the soles. And as far as footwear goes, the Doc Marten, Converse sneaker and Vans are Indie cool. So are vintage shoes, the older the better, and if they have a hole in them so much the better. Adidas, Jimmy Choos and Vera Wangs are not acceptable. Jeans must be naturally distressed.
Typically the Indie person is unpredictable, yet cool and you won't find them voted for as the King and Queen of the prom, this would betray their uniqueness, and shirking of conventions.

7717 Inwood
Dallas, TX 75209
Category: Bars and Clubs
Region: Park Cities
Putting on a pair of heels can change your outlook on life. Yes, it seems silly, but the transition from tennis shoes to stilettos is on par with shedding your depression sweats, shaving your legs and wearing dresses again. It's empowering, and that is likely why those shoes are the cornerstone footwear of the Stiletto Stampede. Well, that and because folks sprinting in high heels is scary/funny. The stampede is an annual high-heel sprint raising money for breast cancer awareness and Boob Camps, post-surgical workshops to help heal the minds and bodies of women who have undergone mastectomies. While the actual 100-yard dash event isn't until May 24, Thursday's High Heel Happy Hour is a chance to mingle with other go-getters while sipping pink cocktails and listening to live music at the Inwood Tavern, 7717 Inwood Road. It's fun, free and an opportunity to put on a pair of pumps and maybe even shave up to the knee. Or not. No judgies. Running from 5 to 8 p.m., this happy hour has food sampling and door prizes. Visit stilettostampede.org for more information.

So begins Blue Sunshine, cleverly
introducing unease and tension between its characters
before going for the jugular which it's entirely
capable of doing and indeed does in the opening
scene proper.
At a party Brion James sits in a corner preparing
to unleash an impersonation of flying Japanese
monster Rodan that seriously pisses off at least
one guest. All attention is soon directed towards
Billy Crystal's brother Richard as he launches
his own imitation of a pop culture icon, Frank
Sinatra. Going too far himself by holding another
guy's gal a little too closely, he's soon sent
packing when the offended partner accidentally
lifts his wig revealing an almost bald pate covered
in just a few wispy locks. A car load of guys
goes out looking for him taking Jerry (Zalman
King) Zipkin's slightly pissed girlfriend (Deborah
Winters) with them as the enigmatic Zipkin decides
to mount his own search on foot. Three gals are
still in the house when the maniacal Crystal returns
immediately throwing one in the fire, knocking
down another with a pitch fork and simply punching
out the third before also loading the latter two
in the fireplace. Hearing screams Zipkin hurriedly
returns to meet the maniac who chases him out
onto the street. Zipkin pushes baldy under a truck
but runs off earning the ire of one of the truckers
who chases after him with a gun and wounds him.
Zipkin jumps in a car and drives off.
Back at the house a crime scene has been declared
and an investigating cop decides to go after Zipkin
after talking to Deborah Winters. As the prime
suspect Zippy wisely goes on the run but not before
seeking medical care from his old buddy who's
now a general surgeon with his own practice. Zippy
notices his old pal's headaches. Back at the apartment
building the babysitter complains to her friend
from across the hall about her own headaches and
sudden hair loss. Although divorced from him she's
also still in love with her ex, political hopeful
Ed Flemming, played by Mark Godard, who's campaign
for Congress is all pervasive.

Thank you for your help
Maybe something like this?
sketch=new JitterObject("jit.gl.sketch",new Atom[]{Atom.newAtom("fluid_simulation")});
I have tried the 2 lines you suggested. Maybe I did something wrong.
It didn't seem to work.
Then I tried the last line you suggested as following

It works :-)

Boxee's Live TV Stick Lets You Cut the Cable
by Leslie Meredith, TechNewsDaily Senior Writer
November 16 2011 02:35 PM ET
CREDIT: Boxee
Boxee, the quirky set-top box manufacturer, has unveiled a Live TV stick companion for its streaming media box. The $49 plug-in device is a USB stick and HD antenna combo that delivers broadcast channels — including HD — into the Boxee system.
The advantage to the Boxee player with Live TV stick is that the system brings broadcast channels into Boxee's interface, so viewers can see all available content in one place. That means no switching between TV modes to choose between an NFL game in HD and the latest episode of "Breaking Bad" via the Internet. For a taste of Boxee, download the free app to your computer.
Like any HD antenna, the channels a viewer receives is based on their location, but most households can expect to receive 30 or more over-the-air channels, including the major networks: ABC, NBC, FOX and CBS. The Live TV stick consists of two parts. It comes with a standard-size USB stick that has a port on the opposite end for the included HD antenna . To get an idea of what channels you'll receive with an HD antenna, run a test at AntennaWeb.com. In areas where signals are weak, viewers can attach a cable from an outdoor antenna to the device for better reception. Alternately, a coaxial cable from a cable box can be connected.
The Boxee combo comes at a time when consumers are looking for ways to cut their cable service without sacrificing too many entertainment options. Internet content along with broadcast channels may be enough. According to Boxee, 89 of the top 100 rated shows are available on broadcast TV.
"The Super Bowl, the World Series, the Oscars, the Grammys, presidential debates and addresses, the Olympics… they're all on broadcast," Avner Ronen, Boxee CEO, writes on the company blog. "Yes, there are hundreds of cable channels, but make a list of the stuff you actually watch. You will probably find that most are on broadcast and the rest are available on Vudu/Netflix/Network sites. What is left on your list? Is it really worth $85 a month?"
A Boxee box will set you back $180. With the $49 stick, that's about $230, or less than three months worth of cable.
Boxee's Live TV stick is available for preorder from the Boxee website. The company plans to begin shipping the add-on device in January 2012.

Originally published in Interiors & Sources
"The key to successful environmental interventions is to understand where attention and consideration are most needed, and to prioritize these environments in such a way as to provide the least amount of disturbance and negative effect," says author A.J. Paron-Wildes, LEED AP, an interior designer currently serving as architectural and design specialist for Allsteel.
Paron-Wildes points out that the dramatic increase in the incidence of such conditions as asthma, autism and Alzheimer's disease has added yet another set of factors to the many attributes of the environment that can affect the health and well being of occupants. There is a growing body of evidence linking such conditions to exposure to certain environmental attributes, such as heavy metals (e.g., lead or mercury) and chemicals (e.g., dioxin). Reducing additional exposure to harmful substances through the use of natural products with simple ingredients is one way that designers can positively affect the health of these at-risk populations.
Designers also need to familiarize themselves with the ways in which the various disorders can affect how an individual experiences a space. Something as simple as signage or the ability to interpret wayfinding cues, for example, may need to be reexamined. Some disorders cause individuals to be overly sensitive to environmental stimuli, while in other cases they may barely respond to environmental stimuli at all.
This Implications describes a number of factors that designers should consider in assessing how the environment might affect the occupant. To view or download a copy of this issue, go to the InformeDesign Web site at http://www.informedesign.umn.edu/ and select Implications from the Main Menu.

Last week i experienced audio problems with my TX-NR509, thnx to the great customer support program i already got my reciever back and it's up running again! Thanks a lot!
#OnkyoEU Today my TX-NR509 stopped working.It produces no more sound. The Network and Firmware Update functions are grayed out..It sounds like the well-known HDMI-board issues that a lot of users have.Is there a way to get the receiver up and running again?A lifetime of 2,5 years for such equipment is too short, so I'd hate it if this is the end of this neat receiver.
Tried to find an email address on the webpage, but no success. So my question. I have a tx-nr509 reciever bought december -11. Now it is not working, no sound on any outgoing channels. Is this a problem you have Heard of before? Is there a guarantee, or what it's called? What should I do?
Hi. I tried to submit a support request on your website @ http://www.uk.onkyo.com/en/contact-42204.html - when I submit my enquiry it fails to show a success message. The sound on my Onkyo TX-NR509 AV Receiver has stopped working. Please can you assist me getting this functional again? Thanks, Pete
Have to comment on Onkyo's Customer Support. Own a TX-NR509 AV Receiver which developed the well known premature failure of its output pcb, out of warranty. Further to contacting Customer Service and mentioning the 'Sale of Goods Act' 'Fit for Purpose' They promptly phoned me and offered a completely free goodwill repair including free collection and delivery to GenServe, Swindon.The TX-NR509 is now perfect with latest firmware update, thanks to Onkyo's Joseph Yeung (Customer Care) outstanding customer service.Not related to this particular problem, but owners of AV Amplifiers please allow sufficient air gap above the unit as these babies don't like to be over-heated.
I have TX-NR509 and the sound has just failed (network / settings also show as greyed out). Seems to be the same problem that has been reported on a lot of AV forums. It is just over 2.5 years old how do I get it fixed ?
My TX NR509 has suddenly stopped working no sound through machine, checked internet and there seems to be hundreds with the same hdmi board failure. like many mine is now just over two years old and am shocked at the issue of using a inferior component in this device.I have recently just purchased TX NR626 and am worried about this now and will it last? at present feel like returning to swap for another manufacturer. please advise on what can be done with my Tx NR509 as i see many have been repaired and would like my machine back up and running.
Hi I have problems with my TX-NR509 no sound. The network settings, updating and speaker settings are gray highlighted. I am extremely disappointed in you, then my last amp was a TX-SR605 as HDMI board broke down after 3 years and it was not under warranty. When I bought this iställe and now after 2.5 years, quit this work. I expect extreme support from you this time. My confidence ONKYO right now is zero.
Hi Onkyo Europe, I just have to write and thank you for the outstanding support I received when my TX-NR509 gave up a few months ago as I got the well known "dead HDMI input"-problem. Sent it for goodwill service repair and the receiver now works as it should (maybe even better - quicker startup) and my confidence in the Onkyo brand is fully restored, thanks!
Dear Onkyo, I bought a TX-NR509 at IBOOD on 27 September 2011. Since yesterday, just over 2,5 years later, no sound, no network. On the internet I am reading that many users have the same problem. I don't think 2,5 years for this kind of equipment is a normal lifetime. I also read that Onkyo is aware about this problem and offers a free out of warranty repair. I would like one of those. Please give me info on how to have my receiver repaired under that program. Thanks

Finance Committee Minutes -- Oct. 14, 2004 -- Board of Trustees -- University of Louisville
October 14, 2004
In Open Session
The Finance Committee of the University of Louisville Board of Trustees met Thursday, October 14, 2004, in Room 207, Burhans Hall, Shelby Business & Technology Park, with members present and absent as follows:
|Finance Committee Present:
Prof. William Pierce, Chair
|Finance Committee Absent:
Mr. Kevin Cogan
|Other Trustees Attending:
Ms. Marie Abrams
|From the University:
Dr. James R. Ramsey, President
Ms. Anita Morrison, BAE
I. Call to order
Having determined a quorum present, Chair Pierce called the meeting to order at 1:40 p.m.
Approval of Minutes, May 13, 2004
Ms. Snowden made a motion, which Mr. Green seconded, to approve the minutes of May 13, 2004. The motion passed unanimously.
II. Action Item: Approval of Audited Financial Statements for Year Ending
June 30, 2004.
Chair Pierce asked Vice President Curtin and Mr. Carpenter (Deloitte & Touche) to review the audited financial statements. Vice President Curtin reported the consolidated financial statements of the University, UofL Research Foundation, and the UofL Athletic Association represent the University's good management of its assets. Vice President Curtin reported the external auditors issued a clean, unqualified opinion. The University's bottom line is very strong. Mr. Carpenter concurred and shared the following:
The University's financial position remains strong at June 30, 2004, with assets of $764.6 million and liabilities of $260.8 million. Net assets, which represent the residual interest in the University's assets after liabilities are deducted, were $503.8 million as of June 30, 2004.
Gross tuition and fees were $113.7 million for the year ended June 30, 2004, an increase of $14.3 million, or 14.4% compared to the $99.4 million reported in the previous year. Approved tuition rate increases for 2003-04 generated approximately $7.2 million in additional tuition revenues. Additionally, enrollments were up approximately 3% to 4% during the fall and spring semesters, which resulted in an additional $4.4 million.
Total general fund appropriations from the Commonwealth were $155.5 million for the year. Appropriations and certain other revenues and expenses are reported under Government Accounting Standards Boards (GASB) Statement No. 35 as nonoperating revenues.
Operating revenues amount to $383.6 million and operating expenses were $553.7 resulting in a net operating loss of $170.1 million. When adjusted for $155.5 million in state appropriations, and $32.9 million in other net nonoperating revenues, net assets of the University increased by $18.3 million for the year ended June 30, 2004.
Mr. Carpenter stated that as of June 30, 2004 total assets ($764.6 million) exceeded liabilities ($260.8 million) by a ratio of 3:1, which was consistent with the ratio as of June 30, 2003. Current assets amounting to $163.5 million consist primarily of cash ($44.2 million), short-term investments ($47.5 million), and loans, accounts and contributions receivables ($49.2 million). The largest increase was in cash, which increased by $10.0 million, or 29%. This increase was due mainly to decreases in loans, accounts and contributions receivables of $2.9 million and receipts from the University of Louisville Foundation, Inc. of $5.4 million, which increased the current assets.
Mr. Carpenter acknowledged revenues for research grants and contracts were $123.0 million and $93.0 million in 2004 and 2003, respectively. The increase was due primarily to federal grants of $16.1 million and increased state and local grants. These data reflect the Research Foundation's commitment to the research goals in the Challenge for Excellence. Facilities and administrative cost recoveries for the year ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 were $14.9 million and $12.9, respectively.
Mr. Carpenter reported operating expenses increased by $43.1 million, or 8%, over the previous year.
Vice President Curtin thanked Controller Larry Zink, Assistant Controller Susan Magness, and Account Manager Anne Rademaker for their dedication and hard work with the audit.
In response to Mr. Stone's inquiry regarding bonds payable, Vice President Curtin said the UofL Foundation is comprised of two corporate entities, UofL Foundation and ULH, Inc. (Foundation funded housing). The University borrowed money through ULH to build new dorms and residence halls using bonds issued through ULH. Mr. Curtin explained the UofL Foundation's strong financial position enhanced the handling process. Mr. Curtin also stated the university uses a straight line method of depreciation over 40 years.
Mr. Carpenter pointed out that in June, 2004, GASB issued Statement No. 45, Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers for Post-employment Benefits Other Than Pensions. This statement established standards for the measurement, recognition and display of other post-employment benefit expenses/expenditures and related liabilities (assets), note disclosures, and, if applicable, required supplementary information in the financial reports of employers subject to governmental accounting standards. This statement becomes effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2006. The University has not yet evaluated the effect of this statement on its financial reporting. In response to Mr. Green's inquiry, Mr. Carpenter reported the University has implemented all reporting requirements. Mr. Stone made a motion, which Ms. Snowden seconded, to approve the
President recommends that the Board of Trustees approve the attached financial statements for the period ending June 30, 2004, as presented under Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) 34.
The motion passed unanimously. Chair Pierce called for a brief recess of the Finance Committee meeting at 2:03 p.m. to allow the Personnel Committee to meet. Ms. Abrams departed at 2:10 p.m. The Finance Committee resumed its meeting at 2:15 p.m.
III. Information Item: Presentation of Master Plan for Shelby Business &
Technology Park
Chair Pierce noted at the June 24, 2004 Board of Trustees meeting, the Trustees approved the master plan for Shelby Campus in the conceptual format presented. Following that meeting, a draft business plan was to be considered. He invited Vice President Owsley to present the business plan. Vice President Owsley noted subsequent to the June meeting, the University has conducted meetings with community groups. (Ms. Abrams departed the meeting.) Vice President Owsley asked Ms. Anita Morrison, consultant on the project, to update the Board on progress. Ms. Morrison presented a Powerpoint with information concerning anticipated development through 100 years. In response to Mr. Poe's inquiry concerning feasibility of comparables, Ms. Morrison noted their review was still in progress. Mr. Poe expressed concern regarding the housing component of the project. He further recommended utilizing the 16 acres earmarked as residential for research building space. Ms. Morrison noted the University's need for cash and liquidity to launch the project. Mr. Stone recommended adding Mr. Poe to the Shelby Campus Advisory Board. President Ramsey agreed. Ms. Morrison will reevaluate the plan based upon the Board's discussion. Ms. Snowden noted the University's commitments to the neighborhoods and the discussions of the Advisory Board with area developers. President Ramsey stated the report was in draft and expressed appreciation to trustees for their feedback. Dr. Ramsey also observed Ms. Snowden had expressed similar reservations regarding residential development. President Ramsey acknowledged that any development would be consistent with the University's academic mission. Ms. Loving said the University must respond to many different constituencies regarding the use of this very valuable piece of property. In response to Ms. Loving's statement, Dr. Ramsey reported the state owns the property and the University must obtain permission from the legislative branch for the disposition of the property. Vice President Owsley stated the University acquired the land before entering the state system. Ms. Koshewa added that when the University entered the state system real property of the University of Louisville became property of the Commonwealth held for the benefit of the University.
Chair Pierce thanked Ms. Morrison and Vice President Owsley for the presentation and noted additional information will be provided at a subsequent meeting.
IV. Other Business
Chair Pierce thanked Mr. Bridgeman for the appointment as chair of the Finance Committee. He further expressed appreciation to Mr. Green for his past leadership as chair of the Finance Committee. The information sessions with Vice President Curtin launched by former Finance Committee Chair, Mr. Green will continue on the regular schedule, i.e., the Tuesday prior to the Finance Committee meetings.
Chair Pierce reported the University soon will begin its open enrollment process for health insurance. The University may implement changes in the way health care services and products are used. Chair Pierce asked President Ramsey to explain further. Dr. Ramsey reported health care claims exceed premiums. At the time the University implemented a self insurance program, it did not have a reserve established. He said the University administration was reviewing a combination of cost utilization and containment, rewarding employees with a plan more consumer-focused, and conducting campus-wide discussions. In response to Mr. Stone's inquiry about employee accountability, President Ramsey suggested the University could do a better job in promoting fitness and health education. Chair Pierce suggested the possibility of a two-tier premium which would incorporate premium reductions for those who voluntarily participate in health wellness programs. President Ramsey recognized the excellent job Vice President Owsley has done with this very difficult issue.
V. Adjournment
Ms. Snowden made a motion, which Mr. Green seconded, to adjourn the meeting at 2:50 p.m. The motion passed unanimously.

I wish I could read right now when I try reading my Jazz History book I can't fucking retain what I am reading. It is very annoying to me since I want to do well in the class so I am very annoyed that I can retain my shit since i want to pass the test and shit.
I am really fucking annoyed today if the Lakers do not win then that'll be the mother fucking icing on the delicious cake of day its been shit.
When Kobe goes down
When Kobe comes back
When Bynum goes down
When anyone else goes down
When Kobe hits a ridiculous shot
When the Lakers block a shot,
When Shannon Brown dunks the ball,
When they throw the ball away,
When an official makes a bullshit call,
When the Lakers win,
When Lakers lose,
When Laker haters talk shit,
But whatever
But no matter what,
All day. Everyday.
My hair looks like Morrissey right now what the fuck. dope

NEW ORLEANS (AP) - Louisiana State University's New Orleans nursing school has a three-year, $1 million grant to teach students how to deal with patients who come out of anesthesia fighting, restless or confused - or even to prevent the condition.
It's called "emergence delirium," and is associated with anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder and traumatic brain injury. Those are more common among military veterans and among people with behavioral disorders or multiple chronic ailments than in the general public.
Health Sciences Center spokeswoman Leslie Capo says students will also learn ways to avert and deal with flashbacks, which can be triggered by surgery and anesthesia.
The Health Resources and Services Administration grant will be used to train graduate nurse anesthesia students, medical students and allied health professions students.

Finding the parking structure was a chore. I wish Audra would have sang more songs from the Great American Songbooks of Berlin, Gershwin, Kern, Rogers & Hammerstein, etc. I never heard of a large percentage of the songs she sang. She is a great talent.

If you let one (truant student) run loose, what are you gonna' do with the rest of 'em? Let them go too?Houston judge Lanny Moriarty • On his decision to sentence a 17-year-old honor student, who (since her parents divorced and both skipped town) has had to work both a full and a part time job just to support two siblings, to spend a day in jail, after she missed school recently. Diane Tran, who also takes dual-credit college-level courses, says that she's often so tired that she finds it difficult to wake up for school. But that didn't sway Moriarty, who chose to make an example of Tran. If you think this sucks, we direct you to this Change.org petition.
Mohney and Bennett's articles will appear on Tumblr's homepage, with the hope that it will keep users lingering, thus making the site more attractive to advertisers. The two will be tasked with writing about the dynamics of Tumblr and the people behind the blogs. "I'm trying to figure out how we cover the ideas, themes and people who live in it," Bennett told the Times.
Oh! Well, that just sounds… Terrible.
Sure, there are a few Tumblr's out there that should be covered, but the majority of them are crap [Editor's note: My Tumblr is Pulitzer worthy]. The creation of F*ckYeahYellow — a blog about things that are yellow! — isn't riveting. Neither are a million other Tumblrs, whether they're full of sad poems, sad pictures about sad poems, or even just picture of every damn thing a person has eaten that day.
In regards to this much cooler article. It's great to dismiss a service that you don't even bother to treat seriously. Bravo, Fishbowl NY. You sure showed them.

» A really clichéd calling card: While not giving much away, the use of UseHipster.com appears to be ironic. Some might even say … detached.

A summary so far…
Since we started this blog last year, we have received submissions from young people around the world. Here is some highlights of what they have to say.
We want to hear your thoughts on how young people - especially those who are disadvantaged - can get the right skills for decent jobs and better lives. Let us know by submitting a blog post, drawing, photo or other content, or by commenting on some of the posts made by others.
Your views will be listened to and will influence our report on skills development for young people, which will be read by policy makers all over the world.
"What Nigeria needs right now, to curb the increasing rate of unemployment and underemployment, eradicate extreme poverty and sustain the private sector is to stay committed in developing, is entrepreneurial skills among young people - right from primary school age. We need more entrepreneurs like Aliko Dangote, Michael Adenuga and the likes in our generation and beyond."
- Jennifer Ehidiamen: Teaching Entrepreneurship in our Classroms is a First Step
"The goal of employment – or more absurd today, full employment – is not only regarded as unfeasible but even as undesireable by certain interests and institutions […] Who wants to set up a firm and create wealth and jobs when three times as much can be made by speculating with thousands of available financial vehicles?"
- Andres Villena: Employment for societies that no longer wish to create jobs? Also available in Spanish.
"The job market is now generating new uncertainties and concerns, as it imposes new requirements that most indigenous peoples cannot meet, and it is difficult for them to adapt to the drastic changes. They are required to master Spanish and English and to have vocational training, work experience and technological and computer skills. Ethnic groups are at a disadvantage compared to non-indigenous people who have access to training and more resources of every kind."
- Ermelinda Pérez: Different aspects of labour exploitation. Also available in Spanish.
"[In Nigeria,] private schools have taken the place of public schools while the public schools have been left in their deplorable state. The rich and those who are able to afford private schools, send their children there, while others send their children outside the shores of the country to study. However, how long will we have to put up with these poor standards of our education system?"
- Chinwe Oguamanam: Education: Access and Quality
"Our world is globalized, our schools are not."
- Rahel: Teach Reality
"If African government leaders really want to develop the human resource in the region and reduce poverty and inequality, then they must take education very seriously and invest more in it!"
- Jennifer Ehidiamen: The State of the African Youth on Education
"Young people need career guidance on choices of the work. I have a number of friends who have gone back to school due to lack of jobs because of available jobs in the market without considering what they love to do. In Kenya unemployment rate is high because young people are lacking support in terms of engagement from different stakeholders, career advises in schools."
- Ayshah: All About Ayshah
"My education background in political science, did not prepare me for work."
- Amadou Moctar Diallo: Develop new skills by volunteering
"Nowadays, we have to develop our own way to learn and to be ready for the job market because University doesn't teach "the-job-skills-required course""
Yasmyn Camier: Tips for informal education
"Young people who volunteer their services acquire better and excellent skills that in the long run will help them throughout their work life, and I must add that they usually don't go searching for jobs, jobs comes to them."
- Akachukwu Okafor: Volunteerism: A sure way of excellent skills acquisition

Arctic caught in worst state of undress ever recorded

Elephant Seal Pups, South Georgia Island
I got my results back from my Frozen Planet course and I passed! :-D really pleased and a big thank you to all you followers! This blog has really helped me with my course and I'm definitely going to continue with it. The polar regions are immensely beautiful and I intend to educate as many people as I can about how important they are to our planet.

Despite the polar regions seeming so separate to the rest of our planet, they play a vital role in sustaining it.
If you want to know more about the wildlife and the work that the WWF is doing to help protect them, please visit this link below!
On an extra note, hideous statistics have been unveiled of how many harp seals are brutally slaughtered each year in Canada. Newfoundland's tax money contributed last year to the death of 70,000 seals! If you want to help, there is link on harpseals.org below to write to Canadian senators to plea for a stop to this cruelty.

This needs to stop!
Hey everyone and awesome followers. Very sorry I haven't posted anything for a while! I've been really busy moving house, working (I won't bore you any longer).
But on the plus side, as I've been doing more of my Frozen Planet course I've got loads of interesting new facts and info on the polar regions to share with you. So hopefully you'll not only like the new pictures and info on my blog but learn something from them too!
In the meantime, here is a lovely picture of an Arctic Wolf :) x
Did you know…..
Antarctica is roughly the size of the United States! (plus a bit more). It's huge!
If you haven't already heard, a huge lake called 'Lake Vostok' in Antarctica has been covered in a sheet of ice since the ice age. Nobody has ventured down into the waters of this lake, and now there is a race on to see which country can break the ice first and uncover the potential wonders that lie beneath. Scientists believe there may be brand new microbial lifeforms down there.
Russian scientists apparently have won the race, reporting that they have broken the ice first! No confirmation has been made as of yet (as far as I know).
See the bbc article to find out more! Very exciting stuff!
Peace X
