The University of Virginia Board of Visitors spent over $125,000 last year just on food and travel expenses alone according to The Washington Examiner.
The biggest expense was for an annual retreat that in 2011, cost $34,000 and was held in Alexandria.
For the two-day conference in Alexandria, the money was spent mostly on food and the hotel stay. One dinner the 16 members had with Teresa Sullivan cost $4,400.
Some faculty and staff followed the story all day on Monday.
"I think everybody at the University is shocked that the Board of Visitors would be so audacious in spending so much money," said the Chair of the Media Studies Department, Siva Vaidhyanathan.
CBS19 put several calls out to the University for a comment but no one was able to respond on Monday.
Faculty and staff are not the only ones who have been talking about this. Students who heard the amount of money the Board of Visitors spent last year say they immediately think of their financial aid situation and college price tag.
"It's kind of unfortunate thinking about it especially the financial situation I'm facing here at UVa as well as my fellow classmates. I'm personally an out of state student without any aid so hearing that, I think about how much I'm struggling," said rising senior, Emily Scott.
Even putting financial aid aside, just the current state of the economy is enough.
"I think it's unfortunate that in a time that university budget is being cut and at a time that students, faculty and staff are all having to make additional sacrifices in order to remain part of the university community. Well, in fact the Board of Visitors should be taking the lead role in making sacrifices," PhD student, Matthew Burgess said.
Last years retreat cost $10,000 more than 2010's retreat. Some faculty members hope that on a state level they can dig deeper into this state university.
"I hope that Delegate Toscano and Senator Deeds end up looking into this and asking some hard questions about why the board is spending so much," Vaidhyanathan said.
He even made the suggestion of the board having an online conference instead of a retreat.
"They've been pushing us to do online classes for students so if it's good enough for the students of the University of Virginia, then it should be good enough for the Board of Visitors," he said.

Florida Hospital's first work-force housing about building community, too
Orlando Sentinel, May 4, 2012
Florida Hospital will set in motion its first attempt at work-force housing in July, when construction starts on a 230-unit apartment complex between Interstate 4 and the giant hospital system's main campus on North Orange Avenue in Orlando. Even though it's billed as work-force housing, units in the complex will be available to all applicants, whether they work at the hospital or not. Hospital employees will be given priority, but they will not get discounts and will pay market-rate rents. The four- or five-story complex, part of the hospital's emerging 114-acre Health Village, will be called The Ivy — Residences at Health Village.

Design brief
Kunnskap kryssar grenser / kxg ("Knowledge across borders")
We list and promote webcasts in Norway, and spread know-how about videomeeting and webcasting technology. Helping business and government spend less time and money on travelling, and save the climate from more CO2.
None specified
None specified
The full business name is probably too long to be the main part of the logo. Use the abbreviation "kxg" (x for across), the domain name "kxg.no", or Twitter hashtag "#kxg", and include the longer name underneath (or somewhere you find appropriate). Upper case or lower case, you decide what is good, but only capitalize the first word of the title, thus: "Kunnskap kryssar grenser" (not "Kunnskap Kryssar Grenser").
The logo will be used for the website kxg.no, for Twitter profile and thumbnail, and we need something for a favicon. The logo has to be delivered in a vector based format, preferably SVG.
"Kunnskap kryssar grenser" is Norwegian for "Knowledge across borders", thus the abbreviation with an "X", where the X symbolize the "across"/crossing. Keywords that could inspire: Webcasting, communication, video meetings, Skype, chat, cooperation, video conference, telepresence, saving climate/CO2. Bright, but professional look. Simple, not crowded.
Users are in government and business (administration). They need something they will remember.
We will most likely follow up with a contest for a website design.

Tuesday was Election Day, the kids had off from school. I'm not a big scheduler on these days off because the kids have such hectic schedules altogether and I believe they need a nice day off (i.e I didn't take advantage of the Girl Scout bowling trip or the various camps being offered for the day). However, I do try to plan some fun for the four of us and what that usually involves is a discussion leading up to the day and a decision about what will make everyone happy. We had decided to to head to my parents over 55 community to go swimming and that was an easy great idea.
But when I got to my car I found an alert light on and the plans had to be aborted for a moment. Of all days! I'm a freak about safety when it comes to the kids. The last thing I need is to be broken down with them in the car so I told them we needed to head into the auto body shop for a quick check. I made it very clear that it was tight in that little waiting room and they needed to not fight, wait patiently, and keep occupied. But, if they could do it, I would take them to Wendy's afterward, followed by the fun afternoon of swimming.
Everyone who came into the place looked at these 3 and smiled or laughed. :)
They were great, and it's not because they are great kids.
Here's why it worked:
1-Communication–I made it clear what was happening BEFORE we got to our destination.
2-Expectations–I made it clear what I expected in terms of their behavior.
3-Distraction–I made sure they had enough things to keep them busy.
4-Rewards!–I told them I would be happy to take them to Wendy's (their choice) when we were through.
30 pleasant minutes later with one nail removed from my tire we drove off to a nice lunch and a great day of swimming!
How do you manage when your child/ren have to tag along to your boring appointments?

Capacity Scaling of SDMA in Wireless Ad Hoc Networks
Free registration required
Executive Summary
The authors consider an ad hoc network in which each multi-antenna transmitter sends independent streams to multiple receivers in a Poisson field of interferers. They provide the outage probability and transmission capacity scaling laws, aiming at investigating the fundamental limits of Space Division Multiple Access (SDMA). They first show that super linear capacity scaling with the number of receive/transmit antennas can be achieved using dirty paper coding. Nevertheless, the potential benefits of multi-stream, multi-antenna communications fall off quickly if linear precoding is employed, leading to sublinear capacity growth in the case of single-antenna receivers.

Time Warner Cable Releases TV Streaming App for iPad
Time Warner Cable, an American cable television service provider, has released an iPad app that offers free live streaming television to its subscribers. The free TWCable TV app hit the App Store this morning and lets subscribers view live streams of 32 channels within the company's lineup through a home Wi-Fi network.
Available channels include A&E, Animal Planet, Comedy Central, CNN, FX, SyFy, USA and others. The full list of channels is provided on Time Warner Cable's site here.
To use the app, Time Warner Cable subscribers must also have high-speed internet service from Time Warner Cable or Earthlink Cable since the streams are available only on the company's network. This requirement is detailed in the company's blog:
To use our iPad app, you must subscribe to video service from us. Also: this is a video product that for technical reasons requires that you have HSD (high-speed data) service from either us or Earthlink Cable. The video streams do not go out over the public internet at all, but stay exclusively within our network. Both analog and digital video customers with HSD can use the app, but you'll only receive the channels you receive as part of your video package. Our Wideband, Extreme, Turbo and Standard HSD customers will have an optimal experience with our streaming video. Basic HSD customers may be able to stream, but the experience will be inconsistent.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Spotlighted: No.8 Alexander Burmistrov
Goals: 0 Assists: 1 Pts: 1
24 shifts, totalling 18 minutes and 8 seconds.
First period:
Best word to describe Burmistrov's first period -- that saw him bumped up to the team's 1A line with Andrew Ladd and Bryan Little -- might be this: uneventful. Then again, that was the story of the entire first period for the home side, who were outshot 7-3 and did little to get fans off their hands.
Second period:
Much, much better work for the young Russian. He played with a pile of confidence, especially in the offensive zone and drew an assist on Mark Stuart's goal that tied the game at 2-2. Night and day from the first when Burmistrov, like the whole squad, looked a bit tentative.
Third period / OT:
The confidence was still there, although the chemistry with Ladd and Little still needs some percolating. It's hard not to notice the speed and skill he brings to this line.
The parts of Burmistrov's game that were already being lauded -- his attention to detail in his own zone and his niftiness with the puck -- were still there and with increased ice time on this line, there was more of all of it. The growth in his confidence after being given this opportunity was also obvious -- in fact, he was named one of the game's three stars.
Occasionally tends to fancy-up even the most-basic play -- like a simple dump in -- by over-stickhandling. But it's hard to fault a guy for trying to bring some creativity to an attack that could use more.
This is the type of effort that screams out for more. Head coach Claude Noel opted to juggle the lines by bumping Burmistrov up with Ladd and Little and the early reviews have to be nothing but positive. What was especially noticeable, but difficult to measure simply by statistics, was the boost the move gave him.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Kailua Kona Condo Rental Photos and Description
Condo, 2 Bedrooms + Loft, 2 Baths, (Sleeps 5)
Come enjoy a month at a spacious ocean view condo that has the perfect location in Kailua-Kona. You can walk to the heart of town in about five minutes or you can simply cross the street and catch a wave at Honl's Beach.
Alii Cove is the newest condo complex in Kona and the closest one to town. The complex is gated and beautifully landscaped. You'll have the use of a resort-style pool and spa, fitness room, and BarBQ/picnic area. There are 4-unit and 6-unit buildings scattered throughout the site. Alii Cove doesn't feel like a cement monolith, as some other condos do.
This particular unit is special because it is at the top of the complex where the panoramic views are the best. You're also away from the street noise on Alii Drive. This condo's gorgeous new tropical furnishings will never let you forget that you that you are indeed in Paradise.
This is a big unit...1377 square feet, including lanai.
We love the layout. You enter on the second story of the building and find yourself face-to-face with the ocean view and the ocean breeze. The bedrooms, baths, and kitchen are on that level. There is a huge loft upstairs that has an ocean view from the front and a mountain view from the back.
This condo comes with EVERYTHING. The gourmet kitchen is fully stocked with pots/pans, utensils, plates, glassware…you name it. There's a blender, coffee pot, toaster, ironing board and iron, hair dryer, beach towels, picnic cooler, 2 beach chairs, beach umbrella, HUGE flat-screen TV, and a washer/dryer right in the unit. All linens, including beach towels, are provided.
Dine at the kitchen table, at the granite breakfast bar, at a bistro table in the master or in the loft, or on the lanai where you can watch the sunset and see the cruise ships come into port.
The master bedroom has a queen bed and oceanview sitting area. The attached bathroom has a tile shower and double sinks. The guest bedroom also has a queen bed. Both bedrooms have lots of storage space. You'll have plenty of room to stow your suitcases out of sight.
The loft upstairs has a queen Murphy bed, bistro table, and reading area. A balcony overlooks the living room.
This unit comes with a parking space that is right outside the unit. Unlike a lot of other units at Alii Cove, the parking lot and the building are on the same level; no need to climb steps to get from your car to the building. That makes for easy loading and unloading.
Another great benefit of this unit is that guests can park short-term on nearby Walua Road. So, there are no worries about parking if you have a party.
HOA rules require a minimum 30-day stay.

About The Owner
We're semi-retired and split our time between California and Kona.
The Owner purchased this condo in 2011
Why The Owner chose Kailua Kona
We've been vacationing in Kailua-Kona for years. We just love the warm weather and laid-back atmosphere. We decided to buy last year, but wanted something different than the 'boxcar' condo layout. This two-level ocean view condo at Alii Cove was perfect. The best thing is that you can walk to town.
What makes this condo unique
There are so many fun things to do in the area. You can drive south to the volcanoes and historical areas, east to Hilo, and north to resorts and beautiful beaches. Don't miss Hapuna Beach, about 30 minutes north of the condo. The 'Turtle Beach' is about 5 miles south of the condo along Alii Drive. Great snorkeling there.
Speaking of driving...Costco with its gas station is about 15 minutes away. It has the lowest gas prices we have found. Of course, COSTCO has everything else under the sun. Near Costco you will also find Home Depot, some consignment stores, and other interesting shops.
Safeway, Target, Lowes, and Ross are in town close to the condo. The International Market Place, which sells Hawaiian arts and crafts, is also nearby.
But you really don't have to drive anywhere. There is so much to do within walking distance. Every morning we walk to Kailua pier and watch the swimmers train. You can stand at the end of the pier and see the tropical fish RIGHT THERE. It's like standing over an aquarium. Sometimes we catch breakfast at Tante's on the way home.
Don't miss the Farmer's Market. It's right in town and open 6 days a week. We bought 6 papayas for $2!
The last time we were in Kona we spent 5 weeks and still wished we had more time.

Inside a Catholic church that once served as a major rallying point for anti-apartheid activists, the image of a gray-suited Nelson Mandela appears in stained-glass window that also features angels and the cross.
Worshippers in the Johannesburg church prayed Sunday for the hospitalised 94-year-old former president, who remains almost a secular saint and a father figure to many in South Africa, a nation of 50 million people that has Africa's top economy.
Mandela's admission to the hospital at the weekend for unspecified medical tests sparked screaming newspapers headlines and ripples of fear in the public that the frail leader is fading further away.
And as his African National Congress political party stands ready to pick its leader who likely will be the nation's next president, some believe governing party politicians have abandoned Mandela's integrity and magnanimity in a seemingly unending string of corruption scandals. That leaves many wondering who can lead the country the way the ailing Mandela once did.
"When you have someone that's willing to lead by example like he did, it makes things easier for people to follow," said Thabile Manana, who worshipped Sunday at Soweto's Regina Mundi Catholic church. "Lately, the examples are not so nice. It's hard. I'm scared for the country."
Mandela, who spent 27 years in prison for fighting racist white rule, became South Africa's first black president in 1994 and served one five-year term. The Nobel laureate later retired from public life to live in his remote village of Qunu, in the Eastern Cape area, and last made a public appearance when his country hosted the 2010 World Cup football tournament.
On Saturday, the office of President Jacob Zuma announced Mandela had been admitted to a Pretoria hospital for medical tests and care that was "consistent for his age." Zuma visited Mandela on Sunday at the hospital and found the former leader to be "comfortable and in good care," presidential spokesman Mac Maharaj said in a statement. Maharaj offered no other details about Mandela, nor what medical tests he had undergone since entering the hospital.
In February, Mandela spent a night in a hospital for a minor diagnostic surgery to determine the cause of an abdominal complaint. In January 2011, Mandela was admitted to a Johannesburg hospital for what officials initially described as tests but what turned out to be an acute respiratory infection.
Mandela has had other health problems. He contracted tuberculosis during his years in prison and had surgery for an enlarged prostate gland in 1985. In 2001, Mandela underwent seven weeks of radiation therapy for prostate cancer, ultimately beating the disease.
While South Africa's government has offered no details about where Mandela is receiving treatment, the military has taken over his medical care since the 2011 respiratory infection. At 1 Military Hospital in Pretoria, the facility that previously cared for Mandela in February, soldiers set up a checkpoint to search vehicles heading into the hospital's grounds. A convoy of cars with flashing lights and sirens entered the hospital grounds Sunday afternoon.
Mandela's hospitalisation quickly dominated news coverage in South Africa, where most have been focused on the upcoming ANC national convention later this month in Mangaung. There, the party that has governed South Africa since Mandela's election will pick either pick a new leader or re-elect Zuma to helm the organisation. Becoming leader of the ANC means a nearly automatic ticket to becoming the president in post-apartheid South Africa.
Zuma, 70, faces increasing criticism as the nation's poor blacks, who believed the end of apartheid would bring economic prosperity, face the same poverty as before while politicians and the elite get richer. Meanwhile the economy continues to struggle amid slow growth and the aftermath of violent unrest in the country's mining industry.
Zuma also faces criticism over millions of dollars of government-paid improvements made at his private homestead. But that's merely the tip of the corruption allegations swirling around the party, which critics say is increasingly tarnished. Textbooks have gone undelivered to rural schools, while local ANC officials have been arrested and convicted of corruption charges. Others have been attacked or killed in politically tinged violence as the party's convention draws closer.
"It's becoming corrupt every day ... and it's growing worse," said Sidney Matlana, a worshipper at Regina Mundi. "Things are getting worse than it was before."
Yet Zuma remains a charismatic leader and still gets widespread support from Zulus, South Africa's largest ethnic group. He appears likely to hold onto power as provincial nominations ahead of the national meeting largely have supported him.
Despite that, those leaving worship Sunday at Regina Mundi stressed the need for South Africa's politicians to follow Mandela's example.
It was here that anti-apartheid crusaders gathered to plan, pray and to mourn their dead, a church Mandela himself once called a "battlefield between forces of democracy and those who did not hesitate to violate a place of religion with tear gas, dogs and guns."
Mandela's stained-glass image stands just right of another portraying a man carrying the corpse of 13-year-old Hector Pieterson, who was gunned down by police in Soweto in a peaceful 1976 student protest.
Worshippers acknowledged Sunday they didn't know which politician would be able to live up to Mandela's legacy.
"Every person has got his time," churchgoer Lerato Mhlala said. "Someone must come in and take his place as well."

Intricate floral beading gets carried through in a floral hair pin and cocktail ring, while a textured Lauren Merkin snake print clutch adds further flair. Do you like?

I adore Emily Blunt. She is always dressed to perfection. What happened? Disappointed. Her hair also looks weird made up that way. Oh well, everyone has a bad day. At least she wasn't wearing what Rita Wilson wore! What a Disaster!

That color washes her out, and it looks like there are bits of toilet paper stuck to it.

Blehhhh would've liked it with either more embellishment, or none at all. I also don't think the hair really goes with it.

Vetiver Tight Knit
- Words: John S.W. MacDonald
- Label: Sub Pop
- XLR8R Rating: 6/10
On Vetiver's fourth full-length, frontman Andy Cabic continues his obsession with early-'70s folk rock and West Coast psychedelia. These tunes waft like summer breezes rolling in off the San Francisco Bay—Cabic's lazy tenor intoning soft and lonely over scads of tasteful finger-picking and jazzy percussion. This makes Tight Knit real easy on the ears, particularly the gorgeous opener, "Rolling Sea," and "Everyday," which sounds like the best song Mojave 3 never wrote. But almost as often, Tight Knit feels too pleased with itself, too comfortable in its own soft skin. Whether it's white-boy funk or Espers-esque folk dirges, the record's second half fails to make much of an impression. What's easy to listen to can be just as easy to forget.

text: I'm trying to string together a line of concocted Vader dialog in Audacity, using rips from the movies. The sentence I'm trying to construct is "So, you have accepted the truth concerning the Jedi". I was able to assemble "concerning" out of concern (asteroids don't concern him) and bidding (what is thy bidding) with a bit of pitch shifting on the latter part of concern to make it flow nicely. But Jedi is proving more challenging... best I can tell, Vader's only use of "Jedi" in the whole trilogy is when he tells Luke he's not a Jedi yet, and it's said really low and soft... it's hard to match it up. I'll get this mastered yet though. Keep an eye out... a little 10 or 20 second job, all titles and music and dialog. It's quite fun actually.

I am trying to implement a search as you type screen in my Silverlight application. The idea is that I have a screen with a textedit control and a listbox. The listbox is filled with all my data.
When the user types something in the textbox the following happens:
- All the items that are not containing all the letters from the user input are hidden.
- The matching letters of the visible list items are highlighted with a different color.
I am not sure how to start with this, so all pointers, samples and hints are welcome!
