The Federal Military Selective Service Act (the "Act") requires most males residing in the United States to present themselves for registration with the Selective Service System within thirty days of their eighteenth birthday. Most males between the ages of 18 and 25 must be registered. Males born after December 31, 1959, may be required to submit a statement of compliance with the Act and regulations in order to receive any grant, loan, or work assistance under specified provisions of existing federal law. In California, students subject to the Act who fail to register are also ineligible to receive any need-based student grants funded by the state or a public postsecondary institution.
Selective Service registration forms are available at any U.S. Post Office, and many high schools have a staff member or teacher appointed as a Selective Service Registrar. Applicants for financial aid can also request that information provided on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) be used to register them with the Selective Service. Information on the Selective Service System is available and the registration process may be initiated online at http://www.sss.gov.
Information concerning the academic programs of CSULB may be obtained from the Office of the Provost, BH 303, at (562) 985-4128 and may include:
|Graduation Rates for All Freshmen
|Starting Fall Cohort Term
|6-Year Graduation Percentage
|Estimated Eventual Graduation Percentage
CSULB has an obligation, under the federal Student Right-To-Know law, to provide information regarding graduation rates to prospective and current students. The "six-year freshman cohort graduation rate" describes the percentage of students who began as freshmen and completed degrees within six years at the same campus. Although important, this measure does not provide complete information, because some students take longer than six years to graduate, some come as transfer students, and some attend several undergraduate institutions before receiving baccalaureate degrees. The tables here show both 6-year cohort rates and estimated eventual graduation (Note 1) rates for both freshmen and transfer students.
About two-thirds of students who begin CSULB as freshmen eventually earn baccalaureate degrees and nearly 54% do so within six years. CSULB's current graduation rates are higher than most other public, comprehensive universities of similar large size, funding and student mix. CSULB's rate of improvement has been rapid and the campus continues to work to raise graduation rates and to reduce time to degree. Recent graduates took an average of 5.21 years to complete baccalaureate degrees (for the group whose degrees were awarded in the college year 2008-2009).
|Graduation Rates for All Transfer Students
|Starting Fall Cohort Term
|4-Year Graduation Percentage
|Estimated Eventual Graduation Percentage
Over 77% of CSULB transfer students eventually earn baccalaureate degrees and over two-thirds do so within four years of transferring. These rates have been increasing and students are graduating more quickly than in past years. Students beginning as junior transfers graduated in an average of 3.10 years (for the cohort whose degrees were awarded in the college year 2008-2009). Community college students intending to transfer can benefit from early advising. Some arrive at CSULB having taken more units than the transfer minimum and with courses that cannot credit toward degrees.
Completing a baccalaureate degree in a reasonable period of time is an important goal for students and parents. Baccalaureate degrees typically require 120-140 units (about 40-47 courses). Earning a 120-unit degree within four years requires full time attendance (15 or more units per semester) and is a "full-time job" that requires about 45 hours per week attending class and studying. Degrees in engineering, sciences and the arts generally require more courses and timely completion requires attending winter session, summer session and/or attending longer than four years. More detailed data can be found at the CSULB Institutional Research web site. Time to degree is quicker for freshmen who arrive well prepared academically, especially in math and English.
Note 1: Estimated eventual graduation rates are based on a methodology developed by the California State University system that takes into consideration the number of students still enrolled in good academic standing at the six-year point in time.

CSULB affirms the importance of democratic and transparent decision-making processes as a shared community. The University believes that all members of the University community have not only a right, but also a responsibility, to participate in the governance of this community. Therefore, the University is committed to providing an opportunity for all its members – faculty, students, staff, and administrators – to join in the decision making process either through direct participation or representative governance.
CSULB is committed to creating a community in which a diverse population of students and employees can learn and work while they share in creating an atmosphere of tolerance, civility, and respect for the rights and sensibilities of each individual. (Policy 07-09)
California State University, Long Beach, takes pride in its tradition of maintaining a civil and non-violent learning, working, and social environment. Civility and mutual respect toward all members of the University community are intrinsic to the establishment of excellence in teaching and learning. They also contribute to the maintenance of a safe and productive workplace and overall healthy campus climate.
The University espouses and practices zero tolerance for violence against any member of the University community (i.e., students, faculty, staff, administrators, and visitors). Violence and threats of violence not only disrupt the campus environment, they also negatively impact the University's ability to foster open dialogue and a free exchange of ideas among all campus constituencies.
To fulfill this policy, the University strives: 1) to prevent violence from occurring; and 2) to enforce local, state, and federal laws, as well as University regulations, regarding such conduct. The University also has established procedures for resolving and/or adjudicating circumstances involving violence, as well as threats of violence. A threat of violence is an expression of intention that implies impending physical injury, abuse, or damage to an individual or his/her belongings. All allegations of such incidents (i.e., acts and threats) will be aggressively investigated. Allegations that are sustained may result in disciplinary action up to and including dismissal from employment, expulsion from the University, and/or civil and criiminal prosecution.
Members of the campus community are encouraged to promptly report any acts of violence, threats of violence, or other behavior which by intent, act, or outcome harm themselves or others. (Approved October 1997)

Real-Time Energy Monitoring Program to Promote Energy Conservation in Horticultural Enterprises
Posted: August 4, 2011
It is a research and extension priority within the Penn State College of Agriculture to facilitate the development of energy efficient farm practices as well as reduce food miles and the carbon footprints of local Pennsylvania and Mid-Atlantic region farms. Their philosophy follows that by providing a method with which to identify areas that need improvement in efficiency and implementing fuel energy-saving measures, costs of production will stabilize and cost savings will inevitably be passed on to consumers.
A handful of farms in the Mid-Atlantic region are the focus of one such specialty crop initiative that aims to address these priorities by providing innovative programming to improve the energy efficiency of horticultural industries. This initiative focuses on four energy intensive horticultural operations: irrigation of nursery crops; farm markets/storages; greenhouses; and fruit packing/storage facilities. Despite the development of new energy-saving products and techniques, many agricultural operations retain older energy-hog technologies, due to cost. For example, the newly designed micro-drip irrigation system saves water and additional energy usage by preventing waste through evaporation, but it has not yet been universally implemented because the cost of replacing old irrigation systems is very high.
The objective of this horticultural energy efficiency monitoring project involves the installation of energy monitoring equipment on several different farms in different regions of Pennsylvania. Several farms involved with this project are Bear Mountain Orchards in Adams County, Octoraro Nursery and Kauffman Cider Mill in Lancaster County, and Yarnick's Farm Center. Penn State installed energy monitoring sensors to cold storage, irrigation and cider press facilities to monitor energy usage in order to determine the best options for more energy efficient practices. The information gathered from the energy monitoring equipment at Bear Mountain Orchards, specifically, will serve as a management tool for their controlled atmosphere storage center and the 50 plus growers who rent space from the storage center, as well as serve as an educational tool for other growers. The energy efficiency monitors will be installed for other production practices at the other farms, serving as educational and management tools in their own category of horticultural production.
Even though it is still in its beginning stages, the project, called the Horticultural Energy Efficiency Project, is expected to positively affect agricultural profitability and sustainability by reducing electricity and fossil fuel consumption and increase the use of energy efficient equipment and technology capable of harnessing renewable energy resources. By monitoring energy usage, farm operators will become more cognizant of the amount of energy wasted in each task of production and will therefore be able to modify their methods to reduce excess energy consumption.
Before this project even began, some farming operations experimented with their own energy-saving innovations, many of which could easily be emulated in other farming operations. Beechwood Orchards uses skylights in their pole barn to reduce the need for artificial lighting, cutting their electricity use by a significant amount. McCleaf Orchards installed solar panels to offset energy needs from their cold storage. Rice Fruit Company has begun to experiment with a green roof on their controlled atmosphere storage, where they establish succulent plants on the roof for insulation purposes as well as controlling the water runoff. The Horticultural Energy Efficiency Online Monitoring Project aims to propagate information about these and other energy-efficient practices as well as educate agricultural operations on how to cut energy expenditures down to cut the cost of production.
This proposed initiative will be the foundation for the development of energy efficiency and clean energy application in agricultural operations, helping to fulfill Penn State's goals of increasing economic, environmental, and social sustainability in agricultural systems and providing a path for the future of energy efficient farming. With the help of this real-time monitoring system, growers can more accurately apply their energies to the tasks at hand, thereby decreasing overall energy consumption.
Community and agricultural leaders recently held a second Ag Innovations Summit to explore ways to inspire a culture of entrepreneurship and innovation within rural Adams County and encourage novel approaches to securing the future of agriculture. One of the outcomes of these summits has been "Spotlight on Agriculture" events and news articles (like this one!) to highlight innovation in the variety of farm enterprises that we have in the county. Beginning in August, we will provide opportunities for community members to visit innovative agricultural operations.

AUSTIN, Texas - The Cal track & field team added three more entries to the NCAA Championships on the final day of the West Preliminary meet Saturday - Ray Stewart in the men's 110-meter hurdles, Amanda Hunter in the women's triple jump and the men's 4x100-meter relay. In all, the Bears will be entered in five events at nationals, including long jumpers Hammed Suleman and Amanda Hunter, who qualified on Thursday.
NCAA West Preliminary website
"We had a mix of surprises and disappointment this weekend," director of track & field Tony Sandoval said. Ray Stewart ran conservatively on the hurdles and got the job done, as well as anchored the 4x100 relay. Amanda Hunter was outstanding in the triple jump."
Stewart, the Pac-12 champion in the 110 hurdles, cruised to victory in his heat in 13.65 to automatically qualify for the NCAA meet. His time was the second-fastest legal time and fourth fastest overall on the day.
In the women's triple jump, senior Amanda Hunter leapt a wind-aided 42-8.00 on her second attempt. Although she didn't improve on her additional tries, her mark was good enough for 10th place with the top 12 advancing to the national competition. Hunter's mark moves her up to No. 5 on Cal's all-time performer list.
The men's 4x100-meter relay of Julius Travis, Tom Blocker, Dash Oliver and Stewart was the beneficiary of a disqualification. Needing to place among the top three in their heat to advance, the Bears were fourth in 40.58. But Texas A&M's squad was disqualified for passing out of zone three, moving Cal up one position and into the NCAA meet. As a result, the Bears have a men's 4x100 relay at the NCAA Championships for the first time since 1977.
Suleman, the top seed in the triple jump, had trouble finding the board on his attempts and did not advance out of his flight to the finals, settling for a long jump NCAA appearance only. In the women's 5000 meters, Kelsey Santisteban ran with the lead pack much of the way, but took eighth in her heat and did not advance.
The NCAA Championships will be held June 5-8 in Eugene, Ore.

Black Widow Spider
Brown Recluse
Texas Brown Tarantula
Wolf Spider
Garden Spider
Spiders are one of the pests that envoke fear and send shivers down most peoples backs. Spiders can certainly be a dangerous pest, but there are only a few that are truly dangerous to humans in south Texas. Almost all spiders will bite but the overwhelming majority of spiders will not bite unless provoked. Spiders take up lodging in our homes and buildings and we need to be aware of their presence.

Most Asked About Spiders
People have a fasination about spiders, in particular the Brown Recluse. The Brown Recluse spider is one of the most mis-identified and feared spiders in our area. Below is a few of the most asked about spiders and a few of the ones you should be aware of.
Brown Recluse Spider
The Brown Recluse spider is usually light tan to brown with a violin shaped marking on its back, their body hair appears to be velvety and soft. The Brown Recluse spiders legs usually appear to be long for it's body size.
Brown recluse spiders prefer dark undisturbed areas like closet corners, boxes, under your bed etc. They bite when disturbed or feel threatened. The Brown recluse spider bit is not usually painful at first, but become painful in a few hours after the swelling begins. If bitten by a Brown recluse spider you should seek medical attention. Although rarely fatal they can cause serious side effects.
Black Widow Spider
The Black Widow spider can be up 3/4 of an inch , usually glossy black but can be dark brown to light brown. They have an red hourglass shaped marking on the bottom of their abdomen. The Black Widows bite is extremely painful for humans but rarely fatal.
Black Widow spiders prefer dark secluded areas like under wood piles, boxes, shoes etc. Use caution when moving wood and old boxes that have not been used in a while. If bitten by a Black Widow spider seek medical attention immediately.
Wolf Spider
The Wolf spider is usually brown, hairy, can range in size from 1/4 inch to over 3 inches in size. They are quick moving spiders and hunt their prey. They are a very common spider and usually found in grass, next to foundations and under leaves.
The Wolf spider is not agressive towards humans and usually will not bite unless provoked. The Wolf spiders bite is not considered dangerous to humans.
Garden Spider
There are many types of Garden spiders. Garden spiders are also called orb weavers because of their intricate webs. They make large ornate webs that trap their prey.
Although some Garden spiders are large and fierce looking, they rarely bite unless provoked. Their bite is not considered dangerous to humans although it may be painful.

|Tribute paid to Brophy for years in Legislature
|Written by Marianne Goodland
As he comes to the end of his legislative career in the state Senate, Sen. Greg Brophy (R-Wray) looked back on what he's accomplished in his time and looked forward to what the future holds for him.
Both he and Rep. Jerry Sonnenberg (R-Sterling) will be busy during the summer on the interim water resources review committee.
Brophy and Sonnenberg have jointly sponsored more than two dozen bills and resolutions together in the past seven years, with more than half coming in the past three years. The bills have covered water issues, daylight saving, trucking and, perhaps most notably, the repeal of the tax on certain agricultural products in 2011.
Brophy was first elected to the Colorado House in 2002, representing the 63rd district. In 2005, when Sen. Mark Hillman was appointed state treasurer, Brophy was named as his replacement for the Senate District 1 seat.
Brophy has served on both House and Senate agriculture committees, the joint Legal Services committees and on finance. With the end of the 2014 session, Brophy will have served 12 years at the state Capitol, the last nine years in the Senate.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 088070618X, Hardcover)A leader must stand tall enough for his followers to find him. "As the God-appointed captain of his family," says Steve Farrar, "a man faces the challenge of spying out the social territory, marking danger zones, and taking stands to protect those in his charge." It's an active leadership role -- and Farrar's been training men to succeed in it for over ten years. In this paperback rerelease of his popular Standing Tall, the men's ministries leader "walks tall" through America -- observing politics, abortion, the gay movement, media trends, and the loss of our "moral boundaries." Farrar offers men sure biblical foundations on which to stand for faith-based living -- closing with "Seven Ways to Help Your Kids Stand Tall." A study guide/appendix makes it great for group use, too!

Deacs Sweep Eagles after 11-Inning Win in Finale
April 21, 2013
Final Stats | Final Stats | Season Stats
By Steven Wright, Wake Forest Athletic Communications (@WakeBaseball)
WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. - Joey Rodriguez scored all the way from second base on a two-out, infield single by Brett Armour to give Wake Forest a 10-9 win in 11 innings and the series sweep over Boston College on Sunday afternoon at Gene Hooks Field at Wake Forest Baseball Park.
Jack Carey got things started in the bottom of the 11th for Wake Forest with a double that landed on the left field line. Rodriguez pinch ran for him and came around to score two batters later. Armour hit a chopper in the hole at shortstop, and Joe Cronin's throw was not in time at first base. Moving on contact, Rodriguez was going home all the way and scored before a throw was even made to the plate.
With the sweep, the Demon Deacons improve to 23-20 overall and 7-14 in the Atlantic Coast Conference. Boston College goes to 6-33 overall and stays winless at 0-20 in conference action.
Aaron Fossas (1-0) picked up his first-career win by pitching the final 3.2 innings of the game for the Deacs. Fossas allowed just two hits and struck out a batter without surrendering a run. Nick Poore (0-2) suffered the loss.
Mark Rhine reached base five times with three hits, two walks and two runs scored for the Demon Deacons. Conor Keniry and Grant Shambley each picked up two hits apiece as well.
Big innings where the theme of the game early, but neither team was able to push a run across the board after the sixth inning until Wake Forest scored in the 11th.
Boston College jumped out to a 7-0 lead in the top of the third inning. The Eagles had five hits in the inning, but two Wake Forest errors aided BC and proved all seven runs to be unearned.
Wake Forest answered immediately, though, with five runs in the bottom half of the third and three more in the fourth. Keniry and Shamble led off the third with a single and a double, and both guys came around to score when Evan Stephens reached on an error by the shortstop. Rhine singled and Pat Blair walked to load the bases, and Matt Conway doubled to bring home two. Kevin Conway then scored Blair from third on a sac fly to make the game 7-5.
In the bottom of the fourth, Blair, Matt Conway and Kevin Conway all drew bases-loaded walks to bring home the three runs.
Rhine singled to left field in the fifth inning to score Keniry from third base after he singled, moved to second on a sacrifice by Shambley and moved to third on a bunt single by Stephens. That run gave the Deacs a 9-7 lead after five innings.
Boston College scored a pair of runs in the top of the sixth to make the game 9-9, and that is where it stood until Armour's walk-off single in the 11th. Niko Spezial came in with one out in the sixth inning and pitched two scoreless innings of relief before handing the ball off to Fossas who kept the Eagles off the board long enough for his offense to provide a run.
Wake Forest will be on the road for the next four games, beginning with a contest at Winthrop on Tuesday at 6 p.m.

EAST STROUDSBURG, Pa. - It was more than a little shocking to most in the Ohio Valley when the NCAA Division II Atlantic Regional parings were released a little more than a week ago. Coming off a 63-60 loss to Charleston in the Mountain East Conference Tournament championship, the general consensus was that West Liberty's resume was still head and shoulders above that of once-beaten East Stroudsburg of the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference.
The committee though, didn't see it that way and gave the Warriors the right to play host to the regional at their raucous Koehler Fieldhouse, marking the first time in five years it didn't reside at the Hilltoppers' ASRC.
A nearly six-hour drive, six days in a hotel and three tougher-than-nails victories later, West Liberty proved what was known all along - it was the better team.
The Toppers may not have gotten to play host, but nobody - not even the now 30-2 Warriors - could prevent them from hoisting the trophy for a record fourth straight season. WLU ended ESU's 20-game unbeaten streak at home this season, and in doing so became the first road team to oust a host on its home floor since the inception of the Atlantic Regional, which is a span of 20 games.
"They had a great record and a great season and I didn't argue the fact that we played here. They deserved to host it," said West Liberty coach Jim Crutchfield, who improved his record to 15-5 in Atlantic Regional action, and 270-48 overall. "It's kind of a little bit of inspiration in saying we can win on the road too.
"We've been a good road team."
Have they ever.
There were many who suggested West Liberty had earned its three straight crowns by virtue of not having had to leave home to win any of them. While it's true the Hilltoppers are a remarkable 61-2 at the ASRC in the last four seasons, they are also 48-3 on the road.
If you know Crutchfield, you realize he's a politically correct kind of guy, and the type of respect his program has gained nationally not only for the work it does on the court, but also off it, is a reflection of that. He wouldn't outwardly admit to any extra satisfaction, so his players did it politely for him.
"You get on the road in our conference and you have the Charlestons and the Fairmonts, but this place is special," said Cedric Harris, whose list of awards includes MEC and Atlantic Region Player of the Year, as well as regional tournament Most Valuable Player. "The feeling you get when somebody else is against you, it's an unbelievable thing and it sends chills down my spine.
"The crowd was rocking and there was a lot on the line - it's win or go home. This environment was beautiful."
The smiles, well, as one would expect, were just a little bit wider as one by one the Hilltoppers climbed the ladder Tuesday night to get a snip of the net. When Crutchfield took the last cut and threw it into the crowd of his players, a loud roar of approval went up.
"It's always nice to win in front of your home crowd, but when you're in an environment like this it makes you battled-tested," C.J. Hester said. "It is pretty sweet to win in a venue like this."
For once there was thought this might be where West Liberty's remarkable run ended. After all, there were exactly zero cases on record of a team winning a title in enemy territory. Crutchfield said that is OK with him, but he didn't necessarily mind the Hilltoppers being given little more than a puncher's chance.
"I love being an underdog and this was a chance to say that,'' Crutchfield said. "They're second in the country, the No. 1 seed in the region and (30) and one.
"We were the underdog and playing in front of 2,500 fans screaming for them. I felt like we were the underdog and that is when I think we're at our best, we just don't get a chance to prove it very often."
The only thing left to prove now, is can they grab that elusive national championship. Really, that question has been hanging around for a few years now.
People often ask me if this is the year, and time and again the answer has been 'yes.' I honestly didn't feel that way coming into this year, because eventually the law of averages say the graduation of a litany of 1,000-point scorers will catch up.
After Tuesday night's performance I have changed my thought process entirely. This is the year, and it starts a week from today at the Elite 8 in Evansville, Ind., with defending national champion Drury.

Since CEO Carl Sparks took the top job a year ago, he and his executive team have refocused Travelocity on hotel products, build-your-own-vacation packages and mobile devices.
FORT WORTH, Texas — With pointy-red gnome hats, a cruise giveaway and plenty of balloons, Travelocity turned sweet 16 last month.
But it hasn't been all cupcakes and champagne for the Southlake, Texas-based travel website.
Once considered a trailblazer, Travelocity has struggled for the past few years to keep up with competitors such as Expedia or Priceline.

"We weren't moving as fast as we needed to," CEO Carl Sparks said about newer, nimbler competitors. "We're 16 and so sometimes we think of ourselves as one of the elderly companies in the space because we were around since its inception. … Yet 16 is quite young for a multibillion-dollar company."
Since Sparks took the top job a year ago, he and his executive team have refocused the company on hotel products, build-your-own-vacation packages and mobile devices.
In February, the company launched its first iPad app, which allows users to book airline tickets, hotels and rental cars from their tablets and offers hotel deals exclusive to its mobile apps.
While industry analysts are encouraged by Sparks' initiatives and the disciplined approach he has brought to the company.
"He is refining the team and they are working on platform solutions now," Atmos Group analyst Henry Harteveldt said. "There is a lot they can do, and they have matured into a compelling company."
Created in 1996 by the Sabre Group, then part of American Airlines' parent, AMR Corp., Travelocity first offered travel content to consumers browsing the Web. Within a year, they could buy airline tickets, book hotels and reserve rental cars on the site.
Increasing competition
As dot-coms hit Wall Street with soaring initial public offerings, Travelocity became publicly traded in 2000 through its acquisition of Preview Travel. But it faced increasing competition from Expedia, which was adding to its hotel offerings, and Orbitz, a new site founded by a group of U.S. airlines.
As Travelocity slipped out of first place, Sabre Holdings brought the company back into the fold and combined it with Lastminute.com, a European travel site. In 2007, Sabre was taken private by Texas Pacific Group and Silver Lake Partners in a $5 billion deal.
Selling airline tickets
Harteveldt said Travelocity was a pioneer in the online-travel industry and the first major website to sell airline tickets.
In a survey that he conducted late last year, 13 percent of consumers said they used Travelocity to book their leisure/personal travel within the previous 12 months, as many as Priceline, Orbitz and Hotels.com. Expedia ranked first, with 21 percent.
"They outlasted some of their competitors, but I think it shows just because you're first doesn't mean you end up on top," said Harteveldt, adding that Priceline has vaulted over Travelocity into the industry's No. 2 spot.
"While I don't think Travelocity was complacent, I don't think they were able to push the meter as well as they would have liked to and certainly not as much as they needed."
When Sparks came in as CEO last April, he recognized that having staff spread among three offices hurt the company by slowing down business decisions. Sparks, who was previously president of Gilt Groupe, an online-fashion retailer, and had worked at Expedia and Hotels.com, closed Travelocity's offices in New York and San Francisco, consolidating employees at its headquarters in Southlake.
He also added more executives with experience in e-commerce and continues to hire developers to create products and apps.
And instead of trying to make Travelocity all things to consumers, Sparks decided to focus on three areas: hotels, vacation packages and mobile platforms.
"Our biggest markets — the U.S., the U.K. and France — we are now growing in all three of those markets. We are taking share, we think, in a number of those markets across multiple product categories," Sparks said.
Top travel site
The company was recently named the top travel site by the American Consumer Satisfaction Index and received solid reviews for its iPad app.
But after seven years of providing the content for the American Express travel site, Travelocity was left behind when AmEx chose Orbitz as its private-label travel provider. It also lost its portal deal with AOL to Orbitz this year.
Shifting from portals
Sparks said Travelocity is shifting away from portals, like AOL and American Express, to focus on providing customized solutions for businesses and their customers.
With more travelers using smartphones or taking their tablets on vacation, Travelocity executives said they know that they need to improve their mobile products.
In addition to the new iPad app, Travelocity continually upgrades its iPhone and Android phone apps. About half of the bookings on Travelocity's mobile platforms are for airline tickets, while 25 percent are for hotel rooms. The rest are car rentals, vacation packages and cruises.
Steve Dumaine, senior vice president of global strategy and product innovation, said the next three to five years, mobile transactions will likely be 30 to 40 percent of Travelocity's overall bookings.
"We really want to be anywhere the customer is at any time, at their fingertips, so it's really at their convenience," Dumaine said, adding that mobile customers often use their purchases sooner than customers using Travelocity's desktop website.
Travelocity is also playing catch-up in Europe and is competing against new online travel agencies in Asia. And as the economy improves, hotel chains are regaining their pricing power, giving them more leverage when cutting deals with online travel agencies.
But after one year, Sparks said the company is meeting its financial goals and starting to innovate in the e-commerce travel market instead of following competitors.
"We're getting employees saying it feels like we're playing to win again," he said. "We've got our mojo back. I feel like it's back. Absolutely."

Trishul M. Chilimbi and James R. Larus
October 1998
The cost of accessing main memory is increasing. Machine designers have tried to mitigate the consequences of the processor and memory technology trends underlying this increasing gap with a variety of techniques to reduce or tolerate memory latency. These techniques, unfortunately, are only occasionally successful for pointer-manipulating programs. Recent research has demonstrated the value of a complementary approach, in which pointer-based data structures are reorganized to improve cache locality.This paper studies a technique for using a generational garbage collector to reorganize data structures to produce a cache-conscious data layout, in which objects with high temporal affinity are placed next to each other, so that they are likely to reside in the same cache block. The paper explains how to collect, with low overhead, real-time profiling information about data access patterns in object-oriented languages, and describes a new copying algorithm that utilizes this information to produce a cache-conscious object layout.Preliminary results show that this technique reduces cache miss rates by 21–42%, and improves program performance by 14–37% over Cheney's algorithm. We also compare our layouts against those produced by the Wilson-Lam-Moher algorithm, which attempts to improve program locality at the page level. Our cache-conscious object layouts reduces cache miss rates by 20–41% and improves program performance by 18–31% over their algorithm, indicating that improving locality at the page level is not necessarily beneficial at the cache level.

Just about everyone has heard of making phone calls over the Internet these days. Now it's as easy as clicking a link in you Gmail to call grandma--provided she is on Gmail. But what if grandma hasn't jumped on the Gmail calling train yet and still likes to use her good old landline? Well for that, grandma would have to use a magicJack or maybe...a netTalk Duo.
The netTalk Duo takes the need for a computer out of the equation. A user can plug the device into their broadband line and then into a regular home phone and make VoIP calls with ease at the same low rates we've all come to expect from VoIP. The device has a leg up on the magicJack--as well as any other computer based VoIP--where users need to have a computer on and the VoIP app running in order to receive calls to their phone. With the netTalk Duo, users just keep their phone plugged into the device--and the device plugged into the Internet router--and they never have to worry about missing a call.
Like the magicJack, the initial purchase includes a year of service and also like most of these types of devices, there might be a little learning curve. Check out the source article for a complete review. Also, magicJack maybe ruffling a few feathers of its competitors further as it's been working to make all calling for its customers completely free--a promise I haven't seen yet from the netTalk team.

Darleen says August 22, 2014 at 5:47 pm
He was specific about other government officials taking political advantage of police officers in general – he said nothing about actual criticism.
Really, listen better.
happyfeet says August 22, 2014 at 5:52 pm
Clarke argued on Fox News on Friday that the trio was "insinuating that our law-enforcement officers across the United States engage in some nefarious or systematic and cultural attempts to violate people's civil rights."
"I thought that was a slap in the face to every law-enforcement officer in America who puts on the badge and the uniform everyday to go out and risk their lives in service to their community," he said.

here is a perhaps arguably more better example of someone selflessly standing up and putting himself on the line to speak truth to power
sunny-dee says August 22, 2014 at 5:55 pm
One of the commenters at Ace's place (I know), like trslbk or something weird like that, is from the St Louis area. He has been insisting that the first couple of days, the local coverage was laudatory of the police response, and that it was overall restrained. The problem was that the riots were a lot more violent then they anticipated, and have been going on a lot longer.
palaeomerus says August 22, 2014 at 7:13 pm
I'm not saying that Jay Nixon is a creepy guy but once he stared into the abyss, and the abyss called the police, and got a restraining order put on him.
The abyss had already been traumatized by Harry Reid.
geoffb says August 22, 2014 at 10:12 pm
I'd wondered why a 70% black city, Ferguson, had, apparently, only one black city councilman, an a white mayor and 90% white police force. I'd thought maybe it was that the leaders were white Democrats and that may be true but the mayor is a Republican, though the rest of the council's Party affiliation is not stated, but the mayor is said to be one of only a few elected Republicans in the north St. Louis area.
However I did find this which shows that the black majority in Ferguson is very recent. 1990 = 25%, 2000 = 52%, 2010 = 67%. That is a quick major change, and one which happened while the total population stayed the same. Political change was already coming to Ferguson even without the antics of Sharpton-Holder-Crump et al.
I have nothing to back this up, Geoff, but, perhaps, we're talking Katrina refugees?
geoffb says August 23, 2014 at 12:07 am
I don't know Bob. The major change happened before Katrina though, more than doubling in 10 years 1990 to 2000.
A city in transition and now this event and how it is being used by parties from outside will speed that change and likely make it rougher and end differently than a slower unforced one would.
bgbear says August 23, 2014 at 7:03 am
section 8 housing?
Drumwaster says August 23, 2014 at 8:57 am
Worse is the sheer volume of money taken in by municipal government in the way of fines and fees. Ace gave a link last night:
Ferguson is a city located in northern St. Louis County with 21,203 residents living in 8,192 households. The majority (67%) of residents are African-American…22% of residents live below the poverty level.
…Despite Ferguson's relative poverty, fines and court fees comprise the second largest source of revenue for the city, a total of $2,635,400. In 2013, the Ferguson Municipal Court disposed of 24,532 warrants and 12,018 cases, or about 3 warrants and 1.5 cases per household.
You don't get $321 in fines and fees and 3 warrants per household from an about-average crime rate. You get numbers like this from bullshit arrests for jaywalking and constant "low level harassment involving traffic stops, court appearances, high fines, and the threat of jail for failure to pay."
That's 94 warrants and 46 court cases every working day (5 days/wk * 52 weeks/yr = 260 days/yr).
geoffb says August 23, 2014 at 9:12 am
Google Street view doesn't make it look like that to me. It looks like a normal middle-working class small city environment. But then again the 90s were when the Clintons started the CRA-sub-prime mess and also the period after '94 saw an economy growing and people moving to better places than they had had.
You don't get $321 in fines and fees and 3 warrants per household from an about-average crime rate.
There may be an assumption error.
Darleen says August 23, 2014 at 9:31 am
There may be an assumption error.
I have nothing on Ferguson or how the state works it court system, but did anyone consider that spreading the stat across per capita is meaningless?
I have ten people, one of gets a lot of parking & speeding tickets which they ignore. By the end of the year, this one person now has 10 unpaid tickets which have automatically all gone to warrant.
Does it really mean that the police are making sure to issue 2 warrants for each person in my group?
geoffb says August 23, 2014 at 10:15 am
Then again the warrants might be from other towns and for people who specialize in collecting them.
geoffb says August 23, 2014 at 10:26 am
Or what McGehee and Darleen said above which I'd have seen if I'd refreshed the page.
Drumwaster says August 23, 2014 at 11:20 am
McGehee and Darleen, you may both be right, but that simply makes it MUCH worse for the small percentage of residents who are being assessed those fines and having warrants issued. If you assume that only (say) 10% of households have one of the lawbreakers included in those stats, then that makes the average $3,210 in fines and fees and 30 warrants per miscreant household in that year (more than one every other week). And they don't issue one warrant per crime, but rather one per person, with multiple crimes listed as appropriate. (If the percentage is higher, than the average drops.)
Remember that is only for the Ferguson court system, not anything that happens to a Ferguson resident outside the city, which would (of course) only drive up the average.
And they don't issue one warrant per crime, but rather one per person, with multiple crimes listed as appropriate.
Depends how well different judges' dockets interact. An outdated system may generate separate warrants from each courtroom.
Drumwaster says August 23, 2014 at 11:46 am
Not if they are in the same system. The moment the perp is identified, his/her entire record would be appended to any warrant. He/she might appear before different judges, but how many judges can there be in a town of less than 25,000? Only 53 police officers, from media reports. (There may be more if they have not included detectives and investigators and animal catchers, but still a very small department.)
john says August 23, 2014 at 11:54 am
My question would be how unusual are the fines and fees Ferguson collects compared to other US cities in this Ham Sandwich Nation?
LBascom says August 23, 2014 at 11:57 am
Damn, I thought john was dead and buried.
Well he is now, I'm gunna kill that fraud…
Darleen says August 23, 2014 at 12:13 pm
Remember that is only for the Ferguson court system
Ok, I admit I don't know how MO organizes its courts*, but municipal courts usually are not exclusive to one city.
*A quick look at the white paper seems to indicate that the municipalities do correspond to a city/city code/pd. However, how does the tickets/warrants in one city actually belong to residents of other cities? Because, from the white paper:
The density of the municipalities is such that it is possible to drive through 8 individual municipalities in under 4 miles on a stretch of Natural Bridge road going from Bel-Ridge to Pine Lawn
Another thing I find weird is that the municipal judges are part-time positions filled by private criminal attorneys or county prosecutors, who may be judges in one municipality WHILE STILL carrying on their regular job in a neighboring one.
In CA, judges have to give up their bar card once they accept the appointment (or are elected to) to be a judge.
Conflict of interest! Sheesh.
palaeomerus says August 23, 2014 at 12:22 pm
"The abyss had already been traumatized by Harry Reid."
Yeah Harry Reid touched the abyss and when it freaked out he accused it of being an anarchist and an agent of the Koch brothers, and then he read it some Cowboy Poetry.
BigBangHunter says August 23, 2014 at 12:36 pm
– Notice how quickly the media is getting out of Dodge now that the "white on black police abuse" narrative is going south.

That's exactly what happened in my town. Also, our state passed laws increasing the benefits for Section 8 housing owners.
I live on a street that's just slightly over a 1/4 mile long. For decades it was divided into several income level areas: upper=blue collar lower class, middle=lower blue collar middle class, my section=blue and white collar middle class [and where the police never visited].
We specifically moved to the section we did sixteen years ago because our section was quiet and the neighbors knew each other and kept an eye on each other. Now all of the elements mentioned above are present and, but for the houses of the old timers, the properties are falling into disrepair and the police visit the area more often [and the FBI and DEA, too].
This same story has been repeated throughout the whole town.
Can't wait to move to New Hampshire.
The last neighborhood I lived in in Sacramento went really, really bad over the course of the 12 years I lived there. Gunfire in the distance of a summer night, brawls a few houses down that resulted in the sheriff's helicopter circling the neighborhood, narco cops staging on my street to raid a house around the corner, or making a bust across the street that included the handcuffed perp getting up and running down the street while the arresting officer was waiting for backup…
It may have had an "about-normal" crime rate when I moved in, but not when I left.
We've now got gunfire from adjoin neighborhoods at night and we've had two raids on a home four houses down from us, across the street. First time, it was about six months after 09/11 when some Muslims owned the house [and ran a daycare center out of it] and the second time was several years ago where they found a cache of guns a Mexican guy had.
Funny, though, how the weekly Police Blotter in the local papers never reports on this stuff. You have to know somebody on the inside to find out.

Senior libero Karlyn Daly set a Tulane four-game record with 31 digs against Southern Miss.
Nov. 8, 2003
HATTIESBURG, Miss. - Senior libero Karlyn Daly set a school four-game record with a career-best 31 digs, but it was not enough as the Tulane University volleyball team dropped a 3-1 decision to Conference USA foe Southern Miss Saturday night at the Payne Center.
The two teams split the first to contests with Tulane winning game one 31-29 and Southern Miss taking game two 30-28. The Golden Eagles soared to a lopsided 30-18 lead in game three, and appeared to be headed for an easy win as they held a 15-8 advantage early in game four.
The Green Wave, however, refused to go away and battled back to eventually tie the score at 26-all. The two teams traded the next four points, and Tulane staved off three match-point serves by the Golden Eagles, but the Green Wave could not stop the home team on their fourth opportunity to win the match as Nicki Tribble took an over pass and hammered it home to give Southern Miss a 33-31 win.
"We have to give credit to Southern Miss because they played an A-plus game," head coach Betsy Becker said. "They were good in all facets. Our biggest problem tonight was that we couldn't come out of the gate in any of the games and couldn't put together a significant run.
"We played well in spurts and we played good catch-up ball, but that's not going to work against a quality team like Southern Miss. It comes down to the little things. Our teams knows that and we're disappointed. Now, the pressure is on to get a top-four seed and get that first-round bye. Our backs are against the wall."
Daly, who tied the Tulane four-game dig mark with 27 back on Oct. 17 against Marquette and saw the mark get eclipsed one night later when junior outside hitter Anastasia Kenon posted 28 against DePaul, led three Green Wave players with double-digit dig totals as the Green Wave posted 88 digs to Southern Miss' 81. Junior outside hitter Lindsey Norman was second on the squad defensively with 17 digs and Kenon posted 16.
Kenon led the Green Wave offense with 18 kills, followed by junior middle blocker Deva Fowler and senior right-side hitter Lauren Jones-McClain with 10. Southern Miss, meanwhile, ranks third in the league in service aces per game with a 2.13 average, and fourth in both attack percentage and opponent attack percentage with marks of .256 and .186.
Southern Miss' Tribble led all players with 25 kills as four Golden Eagles posted 10-plus kills. Five USM players tallied double-digit dig totals, including Tribble who had a team-high 15.
The Green Wave return to action on Friday, Nov. 14 when they travel to Missouri to take on C-USA for Saint Louis at 7 p.m. Following the match with the Billikens, Tulane closes out the regular season one night later at Memphis before returning to the friendly confines of Fogelman Arena for the 2003 Conference USA Tournament beginning on Nov. 21.

Home > News > Environment
Monday, 13 January 2014
by emma bryce
EACH January, we have celebrated the New Year with unlimited excess – not only the gluttonous, gammony kind, but the excess which heralds the year's first auction of a gargantuan bluefin tuna at the Tsukiji Fish Market in Tokyo, Japan. Each time, one fish, whose flesh is prized as an expensive delicacy in sushi restaurants, becomes a symbol of the New Year in this way.
Last January's tuna sold for a record-breaking 155.5 million yen, more than double the price it claimed in 2012, upholding a tradition that has seen that initial coveted bluefin growing increasingly expensive each year. On the Sunday of Jan 5, everyone braced themselves for yet another mind-bending price surge, yet, despite its larger size this time, the 230kg fish sold for the equivalent of only 5% of last year's winning bid, fetching just 7.36 million yen (RM234,800) from restaurateur Kiyoshi Kimura. He is the same bidder who won the last two auctions as well.
This year's fish carries the lowest price tag in five years. Some sources speculate this is because of greater availability at another fish market in Japan this year, or due perhaps to other bidders backing out, intimidated by Kimura's formidable reputation at the auction.
Either way, as before, this particular price reflects nothing about the conservation status of Pacific bluefin tuna – a population that was found recently to have dropped to less than 4% of its unfished levels – because the auction is too separated from reality to ever function as a yardstick.
Last year, the auction came under critical fire for attaching the excessive price tag to the prize tuna, as conservation groups drew attention to the danger of heightening demand for a creature that is already being over-fished. But this latest number, so dramatically lowered, cannot be used to quell fears. The wildly fluctuating price demonstrates only that the auction is subjective and distorted, dictated almost entirely by the bidders' wealth and whims. And even despite this dramatic dip in price, which inches the fish a little closer to its actual market value, conservationists say it cannot begin to reflect the priceless nature of the fish population overall.
So how are we to feel about someone slapping a strip of otoro – the bluefin tuna's most prized belly meat – on a plate and serving it to a few thousand lucky sushi connoisseurs?
"We don't talk about whether you should eat it or not, we talk about whether it's over-fished or not," says Sarah Shoffler, fishery biologist and coordinator for the US delegation to the International Scientific Committee for Tuna and Tuna-like Species in the North Pacific Ocean (ISC). This was the organisation that showed in January last year that Pacific bluefin tuna populations have dropped 96.4% from their unfished levels, with a striking 90% of the catch made up of younger, smaller specimens that might not yet have reproduced.
These findings focused the limelight on two international bodies that have the power to regulate the fishery of this species across the Pacific, one of which, called the Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission, includes members like the United States, and Japan, the world's largest consumer of Pacific bluefin tuna. Yet the two organisations' 2013 policy response to the ISC's ominous report was weak, says Amanda Nickson, director of Global Tuna Conservation at the Pew Charitable Trusts. "They both failed (last) year to decrease the catch from current levels," she says.
The Pacific bluefin is a highly productive fish. "Spawning females can put out millions of eggs each year," Shoffler says. Currently, scientists have no evidence that this so-called "recruitment" of new fish generations has reduced. However, there's no doubt that the tuna can be classified as over-fished, based on its massive overall population dip. "It's not just that they're catching the small (younger) fish, it's that they're catching so many of them" – and have been doing this for so long – that is a cause for concern, Shoffler explains.
For stocks to improve, Nickson lists an oft-repeated string of solutions. "There should be a scientifically informed catch limit for this species, and there should be a minimum size limit," she says, adding that next on the conservation wish list is the establishment of an initial 10-year recovery plan for Pacific bluefin. But with the fish auction becoming such a firm annual fixture, all that is hard to imagine.
"There is no doubt that the ongoing demand for bluefin tuna is a major challenge to managing the fishery," Nickson says. The mechanics of the auctions themselves are also subject to speculation, some reporters saying that they are not open bids, but rather prearranged sales that function more as a form of publicity for the market and the associated restaurants.
And if the auctions are genuine, even this year's price is a dramatically elevated version of economic reality. Andrew David Thaler, a deep-sea biologist who wrote about the tuna auction, calculates that the actual market value of this year's fish would be closer to £5,000 (RM27,200).
The conservationist's reality is that no scenario can work. Inflate the price of bluefin tuna several fold, and you risk spurring demand to a threatening extent. Let the cost dip and fluctuate dramatically, and you create the impression that the price of the fish is purely an artefact, disassociated from the true value of depleted wild stocks.
Yet year after year, driven by the value we randomly assign to handsome slabs of meat, the cogs are set in motion. In a way, this year's lowered price tag serves as a test of ethical resolve. We're supposed to grasp that everything about this auction scenario is unrepresentative, detached from the real world, and bizarre – so much so that no one should really be eating this fish.
It's something that few like to hear – especially about the foods we deem so central to our cultural refinement. But no matter how low bidders slip, bluefin tuna can, for now, have no "fair price" attached to its head. – Guardian News & Media

I'm just reading through the many posts here to get an idea of what i may want to purchase in the future, 'lurking' i guess you call it. I do have another reason for signing up though. My daughter's Giant RS950 was stolen a couple months back and I'm trying to locate a replacement for her. So if any of you know where i might find one (hers was a 50cm frame), PLEASE let me know-- I'm in Florida but will happily pay shipping expenses. Also any suggestions for me on where to start for my own bike. I'm 51, in excellent shape, am 5'10" and weigh 152lbs. Will be using the bike mostly for in town riding (Gainesville, FL). Thanks!
