UCCSN Board of Regents' Meeting Minutes
Volume 5 - Pages 419-425
September 9, 1944
The regular meeting of the Board of Regents was called to order
at 9:30 A.M. in the President's office. Present: Regents Ross,
Henningsen, Mc Namee, Sheerin, Sirkegian; Comptroller Gorman and
President Moseley.
Mr. Mc Namee moved that the minutes of the meeting of July 1,
1944 be approved. All voted - aye.
Mr. Mc Namee, Chairman of the committee appointed to draw up a
resolution on the death of Mrs. Wardin, presented the following:
By resolution unanimously adopted by the Board of Regents
of the University of Nevada at its regular meeting held
July 1, 1944, record is hereby made of the life, service
and character of its member, Anna H. Wardin.
Anna H. Schadler was born in Germany to Andreas Johannes
and Anna Elizabeth Schadler and came to this country with
her mother, brothers and sisters in 1885, her father having
come here 4 years previously. They moved to Reno in 1890.
Her father and mother lived in Reno until their death, on
May 3, 1904 and February 5, 1909, respectively.
In 1895 she graduated from the University of Nevada with a
degree of Bachelor of Arts, and was a member of the Phi
Kappa Phi. She was Principal of the public school at Wells,
Nevada, during 1894-95 and during 1895-97 was Vice Principal
of the public school at Gold Hill. From 1897 to 1903 she
was an Instructor in Latin at the Reno High School and was
Vice Principal and Instructor in Latin and German languages
in the Reno High School from 1903 until her marriage to Elmer
E. Wardin on January 1, 1907.
She was very prominent in Reno club life. Was a past Grand
Matron of the Eastern Star, and Secretary of Adah Chapter
and has held every office in the Twentieth Century Club.
For many years after 1919, she was Chairman of the Student
Loan Fund of the Nevada State Federation and active in YWCA
Her untiring and unselfish efforts in this work brought her
into such public prominence that she was nominated and elect-
ed to the office of Regent of the University at the 1938 gen-
eral election and since 1939, when she assumed that office,
the greater part of her activities were devoted to the serv-
ice of the University.
Her excellent judgment, her deep affection and her whole-
souled loyalty were at the command of the University and all
of her faculty and student friends in it. The frankness and
the courage of her convictions, the unbending integrity of
her professional and public life, the friendliness and the
good nature of her dealings with men, the moderation and
good sense of her counsel and her knowledge of University
affairs, made her a most valued member of the Board.
Anna H. Wardin died May 27, 1944, at her home in Reno,
Nevada, but, as the poet reminded us -
Were a star quenched on high
For ages would its light
Still travelling downward from the sky,
Shine on mortal sight.
So when a great woman dies,
For years beyond our ken
The light she leaves behind her
Falls upon the paths of men.
Mr. Sheerin moved that the resolution be adopted and that copies
be sent to relatives of Mrs. Wardin. All voted - aye.
President Moseley reported informally that:
a. Enrollment to date totals 475 students, 140 men and 335
women students.
b. Registration was conducted in the new Gymnasium with all the
faculty gathered there to perform registration services.
c. The 3 fraternity houses which had been used to house Uni-
versity students have all been turned back to the respective
fraternities. The girl students are now housed in Manzanita
and Artemisia Halls and the men students are in Lincoln Hall,
a total of 158 students being housed on the Campus.
d. Major Max C. Fleischmann, during the Summer, gave to the Uni-
versity 500 shares of Standard Brands, Inc., Preferred Stock,
valued at approximately $55,000, to augment the scholarship
fund. The income from this stock is to be used to grant
scholarships to incoming Freshmen.
e. Dr. Griffin is working successfully with the Alumni Associa-
tion and is filling one of the needs of the University in
keeping in touch with the boys in the service. At present,
address lists are being brought up to date; later a place-
ment bureau is contemplated. The Alumni Association will
contribute $800 per year toward this project. The first
issue of an Alumni Newsletter has been published and is
being mailed to all alumni in the armed forces.
Dr. Griffin worked, to the best interest of the University,
with the Army Air Force group which came to wind up its
affairs with the University. The University is purchasing
about $9000 worth of equipment which will be of great value
to the University in its expansion program.
f. Mrs. Marsh is being continued as Acting Dean of Women and
F. W. Wilson as Acting Dean of Agriculture.
g. The faculty committee have been expanded somewhat and will be
expanded still further. The plan is that all publications of
the University should come through the faculty committee on
publications. This will tie in the publications of the
Public Service Divisions with the academic publications.
h. Letter under date of September 1, 1944, has been received
stating that the War Department, at such time as students
are available, has designated the University of Nevada to
receive a maximum of 275 Army Specialized Training Reserve
Program students. The letter further stated that this is
not to be construed as a guarantee that such personnel will
be available for assignment.
i. Meeting of State High School Principals will be held here on
October 9, 10 and 11, 1944. The facilities of the University
have been offered to them. They will be fed at the Univer-
sity Dining Hall at no loss to the University. The women
will be housed in one of the dormitories. About 50 or 60
people are expected to be here.
j. About 45 boys have turned out for football practice and the
schedule for the season is practically completed.
k. Inauguration date for President Moseley has been set for
October 12, 1944.
l. The government is asking the State supported institutions to
bear the burden of the discharged soldiers who will return
to College. Some Colleges have increased their tuition
charges in view of this fact.
Mr. Sirkegian moved, upon recommendation of President Moseley,
that the following students, who completed their work August 25,
1944, be granted the indicated degrees and diplomas:
Bachelor of Arts
Margaret Clara Echevarria Flo Z. Reed
Bachelor of Science
Patricia Chism Wilson
Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering
David Everett Campbell
Bachelor of Science in Home Economics
*Ruth Velma Johnson
*Will receive, in addition, Teacher's Diploma of High
School Grade.
All voted - aye.
Upon recommendation of President Moseley, Mr. Mc Namee moved that
effective September 1, 1944 Dr. Robert S. Griffin be appointed
as Alumni Secretary and Assistant to Administration for a period
of 2 years, relieving him of his duties in the Department of
English, at an annual salary of $2600 on a 12-month basis. All
voted - aye.
Mr. Sheerin moved, upon recommendation of President Moseley,
that effective August 1, 1944, Dr. Eldon Wittwer, Head of the
Department of Agricultural Economics, be granted a leave of ab-
sence without pay for the duration of the war to accept an ap-
pointment as Head of the Reno Office of Price Administration.
All voted - aye.
Mrs. Henningsen moved, upon recommendation of President Moseley,
that, effective September 1, 1944, Mr. James J. Hill be appointed
as Librarian for the University Library at an annual salary, on
a 12-month basis, of $4200. All voted - aye.
Mr. Parsons and Mr. Mac Kenzie, representing the State Planning
Board, were admitted to the meeting and gave the Regents a report
on their survey of the present and future needs of the University
Campus. They asked the Administration and the Board to meet with
the State Planning Board in Carson City on or near the 22nd of
September. New buildings required over a 6-10 year period, in
order of importance as recommended in the report were as follows:
1. Liberal Arts Building
2. Administration Building
3. Bell Tower adjacent to Administration Building topped
with cupola and bell removed from Morrill Hall
4. Home Economics, Art and Music Building (as temporary
Fine Arts Building)
5. Farm Shop Building
6. Maintenance and Repair Shop
7. Student Union Building
8. Heating Plant
9. Electrical Engineering Wing
10. Mechanical Arts Building
11. Fine Arts Building
12. Auditorium
13. Astronomical Observatory
14. Agricultural Extension (to include allied Departments)
Each member of the Board was given a copy of the report and the
sense of the Board was that each member study the report and
write his reactions to Chairman Ross before the meeting of the
State Planning Board, at which meeting a consolidated plan will
be formulated for presentation to the Legislature next Spring.
Comptroller Gorman suggested that considerable thought be given
to the placement and construction of a Heating Plant building.
The present heating system is working to capacity and new build-
ings on the Campus will mean that a new boiler must be installed.
Chairman Ross thanked the 2 men for their time and effort and
accepted the invitation for the President, the Comptroller and
any members of the Board to meet with them.
Mr. Mc Namee moved, upon recommendation of President Moseley,
that, effective September 1, 1944, Mrs. Katharine Norrid Mergen
be given a temporary appointment as Instructor in Journalism at
an annual salary, on a 9-month basis, of $2000, succeeding Mrs.
Mary Smith, resigned, who was temporarily supplying for Charles
T. Duncan, Instructor in Journalism, on leave of absence for
war service. All voted - aye.
Mr. Sirkegian moved, upon recommendation of President Moseley,
that, effective September 1, 1944, Mrs. V. E. Spencer be employed
as Assistant in English for the Fall semester at a salary of $400
for the semester, to be paid in 4 installments of $100 each. All
voted - aye.
Mr. Sheerin moved, upon recommendation of President Moseley, that
effective August 1, 1944 Miss Joanna Chapman, Assistant Professor
of Education, be granted an increase in salary in the amount of
$75 per year, which represents the University's proportion of a
$300 increase granted by the Board of Education, the Vocational
Education Board and the University of Nevada. All voted - aye.
Mrs. Henningsen moved, upon recommendation of President Moseley,
that, effective September 1, 1944, Mrs. Alberta Jacobsen, Secre-
tary in the Department of Veterinary Control Service, be granted
a leave of absence without pay for 3 months on account of ill-
ness. All voted - aye.
Mr. Sheerin moved, upon recommendation of President Moseley,
that, effective June 1, 1944, the resignation of Mrs. Clara
Garrison Durkin as Dietitian for the Dining Hall be accepted.
All voted - aye.
Mr. Mc Namee moved, upon recommendation of President Moseley,
that, effective September 1, 1944, Miss Patricia Lowry be ap-
pointed Dietitian for the Dining Hall at a salary of $150 per
month plus board, room and uniforms, for a period of 9 months,
the President and the Comptroller to work out a plan for payment
so that Miss Lowry's board and room will be included as part of
her salary and that the Dining Hall and Dormitory will be given
credit for the proper amount. All voted - aye.
Mr. Sheerin moved, upon recommendation of President Moseley, that
effective September 1, 1944, for a period of 9 months:
Dr. John D. Bibb be appointed University Physician at a
salary of $100 per month;
Mrs. Eunice Griffiths, R. N., be appointed University Nurse
at a salary of $125 per month;
Mrs. J. B. Lynch be appointed Assistant to the University
Nurse at a salary of $60 per month.
All voted - aye.
President Moseley spoke about correspondence and extension
courses for the University, stating that the faculty, at a meet-
ing on September 7, 1944, approved such courses with the provi-
sion that no courses would be offered which had not first been
submitted to the faculty in a general meeting. The charge for
the courses would take care of the expenses. Mr. Sirkegian
moved, upon recommendation of President Moseley, that the action
of the general faculty be ratified in approving in principle
correspondence and extension courses for war veterans and others
to meet special conditions. All voted - aye.
President Moseley stated that, in his opinion, military service
should take the place of the age 21 in the case of special stu-
dents registering in the University. The University War Council
is at the present time working on this and other related prob-
lems. Mrs. Henningsen moved, upon recommendation of President
Moseley, that the action of the general faculty at the meeting on
September 7, 1944, be ratified in approving the recommendation of
the War Council that all veterans who receive educational bene-
fits under the Vocational Rehabilitation program or the G. I.
Bill of Rights are eligible for admission to the University of
Nevada as either regular students or special students. All
voted - aye.
Bids were opened for fuel oil for the period ending June 30, 1945
with the following results:
Richfield Oil Company No bid
Standard Oil Company No bid
The Texas Company No bid
Shell Oil Company No bid
Associated Oil Company $1.15 per barrel, ex. tax,
f. o. b. either Tracy or
Avon, California
Capt. Cook Transit Company .0620 per gallon, via
Western Pacific Railway,
freight to be paid by the
Mr. Sheerin moved, upon recommendation of Comptroller Gorman,
that the contract be renewed with the Associated Oil Company.
All voted - aye.
Comptroller Gorman presented a financial statement of general
funds based on July, 1944 payroll with present budget which
showed an excess of receipts over expenditures of $30,850. On
September 5th the Army Air Corps Board made final check on the
receipts and disbursements under the Army Air Corps Contract with
the University from February, 1943 to May, 1944 when the contract
was cancelled. The summary showed a net of $736.10 still due the
Comptroller Gorman further reported that, owing to the absence of
a number of our faculty in war service and owing to the fact that
the Army paid their proportion of the salaries of the faculty
here, a saving of $92,034.70 was made in the State Tax Fund. Our
surplus on June 30, 1944, therefore, amounts to -
In State Tax Fund $ 92,034.70
In Army Contracts 72,833.80
Total $164,868.50
Comptroller Gorman recommended that consideration be given to the
following improvements which have previously been discussed by
the Regents and to which this surplus could be assigned:
1. A shop so that the plumbing shops can be moved from
Lincoln Hall $ ?
2. Conversion of old Gymnasium to ROTC 20,000
3. Completion of new Gymnasium 60,000
4. Equipping Engineering Schools to meet recommendation
of E. C. P. D. requirements including hydraulic labo-
ratory 20,000
5. High pressure steam boiler for Steam Engineering
which will require an annex to the new Engineering
building 10,000
6. Purchase of Evans tract north of Campus 13,000
7. Additional boiler in heating plant to care for new
building 10,000
8. Putting controls on heating system in new Engineer-
ing building 5,000
9. Paving - Morrill Hall, President's House to
Greenhouse $10,000 to 25,000
Mr. Sirkegian moved that the Board of Regents approve the expend-
iture of an amount approximately $165,000 to cover the cost of
the 9 recommendations made by the Comptroller, the work to be
done as soon as men and materials become available. All voted -
Comptroller Gorman reported on the Max C. Fleischmann gift to
augment the Fleischmann Scholarship Fund. (See President's in-
formal report, item d.) Mr. Mc Namee presented the following

of 500 shares of Standard Brands, Inc. Preferred Stock, upon
the terms specified by Major Fleischmann to augment his
scholarship fund at the University of Nevada.

Comptroller Gorman reported on the Major Fleischmann gift of his
Dairy Farm situated about 7 miles south of Reno, which gift was
presented to the University on September 6, 1944, subject to a
partnership lease which runs until August, 1948. The deed and
other papers were turned over to Mr. Mc Namee for his considera-
tion and opinion. It was the sense of the Board that we continue
with the operation of the farm as is, under the direction of Dean
Wilson, until the meeting of the State Legislature. Mr. Mc Namee
presented the following resolution:
BE IT RESOLVED, that the Board of Regents accept, on behalf
of the University of Nevada, property covered in the deed of
September 6, 1944, between Major Max C. Fleischmann party of
the first part, and the University of Nevada, party of the
second part, and that the President of the University be
instructed to record said deed to the property including
improvements, water rights, livestock, implements, etc., and
stock certificates for 95 shares in the Steamboat Canal and
Irrigation Company tendered by Major Max C. Fleischmann.
All voted - aye.
Mr. Mc Namee presented the following resolution:
BE IT RESOLVED, that the Comptroller of the University be
authorized and directed to secure from the Washoe Title
Guaranty Company a policy of title insurance to the Fleisch-
mann property covered by policy No. 26585; to be vested in

$50,000; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Comptroller cause certifi-
cate No. 129 for 95 shares of the Capital Stock of the

on the books of said Company to the name of the University
of Nevada.
All voted - aye.
Comptroller Gorman stated that the Biennial Report of the Univer-
sity is ready for the printer with the exception of the message
of the President. Suggestion was made that President Moseley
prepare this part of the Biennial Report outlining a policy for
the University and including recommendations as he might see fit,
and that the Report appear over his signature.
Mr. Mc Namee, appointed July 1, 1944, to study revision of the
Bylaws of the Board of Regents, reported that he had given some
thought to the matter and felt that extensive Bylaws would limit
the Board to too great a degree. Since the statutes require
quarterly meetings, Mr. Mc Namee suggested that the Bylaws define
only the time and place of such meetings; provide for calling of
special meetings; and provide for an Executive Committee. In
his opinion, actions of the Executive Committee should be rati-
fied or annulled by the Board at a regular meeting on a majority
vote. The Board concurred with Mr. Mc Namee.
After discussion as to the building needs and program of the
University, Mr. Mc Namee moved that this matter be left in the
hands of the President, the Vice President and the Chairman of
the Board. All voted - aye.
The meeting recessed at 4:30 P.M. until October 12th, in order
that the Regents may be present at the inauguration of President

Crooked Numbers
Deviation from Standards
A few years ago on this very website, Gary Huckabay briefly discussed the manner of the presentation of information. As an exercise, he presented the 2002 Angels' stats as percentages of plate appearances, noting that perhaps certain round numbers would catch our eye if they were typically presented that way. Everyone knows 100 RBI or a .300 batting average, but there are countless ways in which we can view current and past baseball statistics that dramatically change the location of those eye-catching round numbers in relation to player value.
One of the main points is that we're all working with a learned scale of context. If you're Clay Davenport and you're developing EqA, you can take advantage of it by mapping the scale of your metric to the construct that all baseball fans find familiar. Or, if you're perhaps pushing OPS as the next best offensive metric, you just have to talk about it enough and show OBP+SLG enough that people start to develop that scale. I would argue that they haven't. For example, how good is an .800 OPS? League average? All-star level?
Actually, it could be either. A player with a .400 OBP and a .400 SLG is highly valuable. One with a .320 OBP and .480 SLG--despite having the same OPS--is not quite as valuable, or at least not to the league average team. This, of course, is one of the problems with OPS, but let's leave that to another article.
Instead, just as an exercise, I want to discuss an alternative method of looking at player statistics taking advantage of standard deviations and the league average or mean. For example, here's how the distribution of batting averages shook out this past year for all players with at least 200 ABs:
And some vital statistics about the distribution:
Min .202 Quartile .252 Mean .270 Quartile .289 Max .335 Standard Deviation .026
Despite a few dips here and there, the distribution is, for the most part, normal without any tailing on either side. The upper and lower quartiles--the 25th and 75th percentiles of the data set--are almost exactly equidistant from the mean, as are the minimum and maximum value. (This fact in and of itself is a little surprising since we assume there's a talent pyramid in baseball with very few stars at the upper end. However, the removal of a below-average player is gradual enough in terms of batting average that it balances the natural tail up to the elite talent. It bears noting that in a more perfect market and with a metric that better maps to total player value, the graph above should have a significantly longer tail to the right than the left.) Now, instead of looking at a player's raw batting average and applying the learned scale that we all use, let's instead look at how a few players do when we display their batting average in standard deviations above the mean:
YEAR BATTER AVG AVG+ 2005 Derrek Lee .335 2.54 2005 Ichiro Suzuki .303 1.29 2005 Bobby Abreu .286 0.63 2005 Aaron Rowand .270 0.01 2005 Andruw Jones .263 -0.27 2005 Wily Mo Pena .254 -0.62 2005 Phil Nevin .237 -1.28 2005 David Newhan .202 -2.65
This doesn't necessarily tell us anything we don't already know: Derrek Lee had a great season when it comes to batting average and David Newhan did not. But we can quantify things a bit better, seeing that Newhan was almost as bad as Lee was good.
However, when applying this kind of number presentation to other situations, it can be not only time-saving, but highly informative. For example, let's jump down to Double-A and take a look at two pitchers from this year, Yusmeiro Petit--the key player in the Carlos Delgado deal--and Shawn Kohn--a relatively unknown 2002 draft pick by the Oakland A's who spent the season relieving in Midland:
Year Pitcher Team Org Lg Level IP K UBB K/9 UBB/9 2005 Yusmeiro Petit Binghamton NYN EAS AA 117.7 130 17 9.94 1.30 2005 Shawn Kohn Midland OAK TEX AA 84.0 92 17 9.86 1.82
Disregarding their age, park factors, the fact that K/PA and UBB/PA are better measures of pitcher performance, and other information for a minute, the statistics tell us that each player is equally adept at striking out opposing batters and that Petit holds a slight edge when it comes to issuing the free pass. But look what happens if we adjust for league context and display in standard deviations above the mean:
Year Pitcher K/9 UBB/9 K/9+ UBB/9+ 2005 Yusmeiro Petit 9.94 1.30 1.48 -1.36 2005 Shawn Kohn 9.86 1.82 2.18 -0.95
Suddenly, Kohn holds a large edge in K/9, albeit while still trailing in UBB/9. The reason for this is obvious: batters in the Eastern League struck out much more often than those in the Texas League, to the tune of 7.4 to 6.6 per nine innings. Additionally--and likely as a result--the standard deviation is also higher in the Eastern League than Texas, meaning that Petit's raw advantage over the rest of the league is somewhat muted because the variance in performance is higher: there are significantly more pitchers in the Eastern League who struck out more men per 9 innings than Petit than there are in Texas who outperformed Kohn.
Viewing player performance through this lens, not only are we provided with a default context for all metrics--players one standard deviation above the mean are in the top 16-17% of their league, for example--but we can also compare players across leagues without having to provide context for each number. Plus, rather than keying on different round numbers for each metric--a .300 average, .400 OBP, walks in 10% of PAs, etc--now we simply have one scale to remember.
This approach to measuring player performance is neither novel nor perfect. However, it's extremely useful from time to time to refresh the way we measure player performance. The quality of competition changes not only from league to league but from year to year and if we don't continually adjust our own learned constructs with those changes, the numbers we use to determine the value of players suddenly lose all meaning or, worse, lead us down the wrong path.
Not to mention winning or losing a few arbitration cases along the way.

Hey my friend, I was on Metformin and Lisinapril. I ended up with a high creatine level so HIGH I ended up going to the ER .I had not been able to pee for hours before I went to the ER. I was taken off of those 2 medicines, but I found out I had damaged my kidneys. I have been off of those 2 medicines now and have to go back and have it tested again. I will get the results in a couple weeks. They sent me to a Kidney Specialist and he is the one who said I had damaged my Kidneys. Plus with high blood glucose levels I also hurt my eyes. I was bleeding inside of my eyes. So they put me on an Insulin Pump. My blood glucose levels went up to 500 3 times when I first went on the Insulin Pump and it was after that I was told I was bleeding in my Retina. Now that my Blood Glucose is regulated better the bleeding has stopped and my eye sight is back to where it was previously. Even so my eye doctor wants me to see a Retina Doctor in 2 weeks.
It really sounds like you were not properly diagnosed or treated. Metformin can can help mild glucose problems, but it can't correct when your levels go as high as you suggest. It is possible you are a type 1 diabetic. Have you seen an endochronologist? Did you get help with your diet and exercise?
I actually believe that with good blood sugar control, you can heal from some damage. You can heal from minor kidney damage and stop further damage to your eyes. You can work through this. I hope you stick around, let us know how it is going and if we can help you through this that would be great.
Thank you for your comment. Type 1 diabetic I do not know if I am one, but I know I was on Metformin, Novalog Insulin and Lantus Insulin. I think after I get more used to the Insulin Pump I will be ok. I still have alot to learn about it.
Well I have been on the pump about 2 and 1/2 months and there are times when my blood glucose goes up and it takes hours or days to bring it back down. Originally when I went on the pump My blood sugar was in the 500's for 3 days. Then a couple of times in the following week it was 400 and now I end up in the 300's sometimes with no reason. One time when I had it in the 300's it took a day and a half to bring it down to the 200's. I am doing better right now on my numbers, but my eye sight has gotten dramatically worse. One time I went to see the Eye Doctor because my right eye was not seeing everything it should. The Doctor set up an appointment with a Retina Doctor. I have that appointment on Friday. I hope he can tell me why I am having that problem. I am on the computer about 12 hours or more a day. A friend suggested that might be why I am having trouble with my eye. Cause when I am on the computer I do not leave it for meals or for breaks. Unless I really have to. I still think it is the high blood sugars though. My husband says that my eyes get blood shot after I get on the computer. My eye was doing better last time I went to see the eye doctor. But now they are worse again. Why do I say that?? I still miss some letters on a page and I have that sensation that there is a black spot I am trying to see around and thru.


text: I am posting this on behalf of Andre Durand, Founder of Jabber.com, Inc. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- Andy, I just recently read your post to JDEV regarding commercial success within the Jabber community. As I am quite active in Jabber market and community development, I felt compelled to respond to your inquiry. After reading this response, you or others would like to talk with me further about what is discussed below, please do not hesitate to contact me directly at 303-308-3228. While it might be easy for us who have been actively a part of Jabber community development to think that we're well into the game of commercializing instant messaging, presence and other real time communications applications, technologies and services, the reality is, I believe, we're barely to the starting line. As you know, Jabber is quite flexible, and provides and underlying infrastructure for real time communication and presence management that has a wide variety of applications. Because of this, I believe we have yet to see the real killer Jabber application or service. I liken the state of our current timing as similar to 1991-1992-1993 with respect to Internet email. There were plenty of users of SMTP email in the early 1990's, however, it wasn't until 1995 that a real commercial market for SMTP server infrastructure began, and it wasn't until perhaps even 1998 or 1999 that an Internet email address became truly universal among the more wired nations. Depending on your perspective and involvement in Jabber or the Internet economy, you may have a slightly different view, but the important thing to realize about Jabber is that it is a relatively new technology, the first public release of v1.0 was only last May, just over 1 year ago. We at Jabber.com believe that Jabber, like any platform opportunity, provides a foundation for a robust taxonomy of companies. Consequently, we believe that everyone within the Jabber ecosystem benefits as a result of the existence of a wide variety of commercial, open and other interests, all working towards different goals, but all tied together by this thing we call the Jabber protocol. We ourselves are only in our earliest stages of commercialization, having spent nearly a full year of our 1 year, 3 month existence accelerating the open source project. We believe however, as do many others, that Jabber is a platform from which a great number of opportunities exist, and we are all actively working to realize our independent visions of this larger opportunity. I believe that if the adoption and momentum behind Jabber continues as it has, that we will one day realize our goals of seeing Jabber become an integral part of Internet infrastructure. Furthermore, I believe that if we as a community are smart about how we interact, we will collectively build a market for Jabber far faster than we would normally have expected. So, all of this is a rather long-winded way of saying, Jabber is still young, the IM market is still young, there are lots of new application and service opportunities that could leverage Jabber that are young and while no-one knows what the fate of Jabber will be in 2 to 3 years, many of us have either intuitive or concrete reasons for believing that a significant commercial opportunity exists within and around this thing we call all know as Jabber. Sincerely, Andre Durand Founder, Jabber.com, Inc. 303-308-3228 -----Original Message----- From: Andy Riedel [mailto:ariedel at xadra.com] Sent: Tuesday, June 26, 2001 12:53 AM To: jdev at jabber.org Subject: [JDEV] Commercial Success Hello everyone, I'm interested in hearing any true commercial success stories (other than Jabber.com please) based on the Jabber platform. Is anyone out there working for a company that is making $$$ using the Jabber platform? This would include derivative products, integrators, or infrastructure hosters. Thanks, Andy Riedel CEO XadrA LLC _______________________________________________ jdev mailing list jdev at jabber.org http://mailman.jabber.org/listinfo/jdev

The Oakland A's are off to a great start this spring training with four wins, one loss and one tied game. The club as a whole is gaining a lot of attention this spring because of the depth in their bullpen and the quality of their players both offensively and defensively. But there are already a few individual A's who are making headlines for their personal successes during spring training.
Josh Reddick
Reddick had a rough 2013, but he told the press that he felt 100% healthy both physically and mentally going into spring training. But Reddick looked more like 200% better when he scaled the chain link fence to catch what should have been a homerun against the San Francisco Giants in the Cactus League Opening Day game. Not only did he do this once, but he robbed Michael Morse of a home run twice during that game. Everyone is still talking about these two catches and both have already been labeled as the catch of the year even though the regular season has not started yet.
Reddick has always been known for his defense, so it is good to see that his defense is back up to its Gold Glove standards. Besides his skills out in right field, Reddick's batting skills has also improved since 2013. He is 4-for-10 with 3 RBIs and only one strikeout. Reddick has met with the A's batting coach, so it is likely that his hitting will continue to improve throughout spring training.
Billy Burns
Burns filled in for Coco Crisp on Saturday against the Texas Rangers and played a very impressive game. Burns just recently came to Oakland in December, so this was his first opportunity to show the Athletic coaches what he is made of. He does not have the strongest arm out of all the outfield players, but Bob Melvin expressed that he was pleasantly surprised when it came to Burns' throwing accuracy and quick release. Burns was able to make two assists from center field that threw out runners at third and home.
When it came to offense, Burns has two hits, two runs, and two steals. He has a lot of speed and is a bold runner, which will prove to be a good addition to the A's since Crisp is the only other player who has the speed to regularly steal bases. After his success on Saturday, it is clear that we will be seeing a lot more of Burns during spring training and mostly like during the regular season.
Jesse Chavez
Chavez is off to a great start this spring training. Since he is the only Oakland pitcher to have started two Cactus league games, Chavez has pitched more innings than any other A's pitcher – a whopping 4.2 innings. However small, these innings were quite impressive with three strikeouts, only two hits and one walk – which is much better than Jarrod Parker's start last week where he went 1 ⅓ innings, walked a batter, hit another batter, and allowed five hits that resulted in six runs. Chavez's success on the mound during these two outings will likely earned him a coveted spot in the Oakland A's bullpen for 2014, especially since he was also a reliable long and middle reliever in 2013 with a 3.92 ERA. Chavez would add more depth to the A's already very deep bullpen and provides the Athletics with another great option for a middle reliever.
Scott Kazmir
Even though Kazmir has not pitched in a game yet during spring training, he threw a 46-pitch simulated game to prepare for his start on Friday in his first Cactus League game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Athletic coaches and executives came out to see their newly acquired starting pitcher, and pitching coach Chris Young told reporters that he was quite impressed with Kazmir's fastball and his ability to hit strike zone. Melvin on the other hand saw something special in Kazmir's changeup. Kazmir also showed off his slider and curveball during this simulated game. If he can make the news for just pitching in a simulated game, then he will most likely be make headlines on Friday after his first start of spring training.

In Vietnam, painting on
silk is popular. Vietnamese artists found these
technique to be a unique way to create mystique and a charming
sense of mystique in their paintings. By using contemporary
colors, Vietnamese silk painting has won the hearts of many art lovers.
After a long period of
development of techniques and styles, silk painting reached its highest
period of success during the years 1925-1945 . The Vietnamese
style of silk painting emphasized softness, elegance and a flexibility
of style. These qualities of silk painting were different
compared to, at the time, to the dominant French and European oil
painting. In 1946, Vietnamese silk painting was accepted and
introduced to the world when Vietnamese silk paintings won two prizes
at the official Salon organized in France. Silk painting is now
popular in Vietnam and has its own unique character and transparency of
colors that are different from those of ancient China and Japan.

Copper John has long been an industry leader in sight pin technology and they are strengthening that reputation for 2011 with the introduction of MicroDOT pins. The result? 44% small fiber tips! MicroDOT technology forms a Plano lens that does not disperse the light resulting in a more focused beam. Smaller dots, both physically and optically, minimize the amount of target that is obstructed by the pin tip.
The benefits of MicroDOT technology are a physically smaller dot that allows you to see more of your target while eliminating the halo effect, which allows you to see ever more of the target. A smaller dot on a larger fiber lets you take advantage of the larger fiber's strength.

The No. 22 South Carolina women's tennis team (7-4, 1-1 SEC) faces another tough weekend of SEC Eastern Division play when it hosts No. 15 Tennessee (8-1, 2-0 SEC) on Friday at 2 p.m. before taking on No. 2-ranked Georgia (11-1, 2-0 SEC) on Sunday at 1 p.m. in Columbia, S.C. The Gamecocks began SEC play the weekend prior by splitting matches against Vanderbilt (L, 2-5) and Kentucky (W, 5-2). Both Tennessee and Georgia swept Ole Miss and Mississippi State last weekend. Tennessee's only loss this season came in Coral Gables, Fla., against the Miami Hurricanes in the second round of the ITA Kick-Off Weekend. The Bulldogs suffered their lone loss of the year in the finals of the ITA National Team Indoor Championships in Madison, Wis., to top-ranked Northwestern 4-1.

Chains of Love 'Strange Grey Days' (album stream)
Published Mar 06, 2012
The seven-song collection offers more of what got this group noticed in the first place: fiery garage soul rave-ups and heady pop scorchers. While the band's sunny vocal harmonies and lo-fi wall of Phil Spector-esque sound recall a number of like-minded revival acts, it's the group's affection for churning psychedelia that makes them stand out from other blogged-about buzz bands.
Once the album is officially released, Chains of Love will hit the road in Canada for a lengthy tour with fellow Vancouver pop crew Said the Whale. See the tour schedule here and soak up Strange Grey Days below.

Quattro de Mayo May 1-4, 2014
Quattro de Mayo is right around the corner!
Quattro de Mayo is a gathering of Audi (and other European car) enthusiasts from across the Southeast. Each year, we spend as many as four days driving some of the curviest roads in the country, and spend the evenings making new friends.
This event began 9 years ago when a group of Audi Club members from Ohio took a trip to East Tennessee to drive a stretch of road named the Tail of the Dragon, which packs 318 curves into 11 miles. But the Ohio crew was not alone that weekend, as a group from Tennessee had also organized a drive and the two groups soon crossed paths. So, they decided to make it an annual event, and dubbed it "Quattro de Mayo". Each year, the event has grown bigger, and the friendships have grown deeper. Click here to read more about the event.
Our HQ hotel is full, but we have arranged for a block of ten rooms at the Holiday Inn Express nearby. A standard king room is $119.99, and the king suite $139.99. The Holiday Inn Express phone number is 828-631-1111. Act fast! Space is limited!
We've picked out the drives, selected a headquarters hotel, and have finalized plans for the Friday cookout and Saturday banquet. Registration is still OPEN, but not for long!
We've got even more drives than last year, added more swag to the driver's package and have a mountain of raffle prizes that should be even bigger than last year! Click here to see who has already registered.
If you want to get every update and teaser about the event, make sure to check out the Quattro de Mayo page on Facebook.
Once again, Quattro de Mayo is presented by our friends at Jim Ellis Audi!


text: Experience a myriad of fantastic sensations with this multi-speed vibrator and its three interchangeable heads. The newest version of this popular slim line vibrator, this piece is made with incredibly smooth and seamless plastic for ideal insertion and penetration that is both comfortable and supportive during your intimate play. The first head is contoured specifically for direct G-spot attention, featuring a sharply curved head with a rounded tip and flat back that tapers into a dual-rippled neck. The second head is pawn-shaped, with a small robust ball head that tapers into to a very thin neck and slowly back out to a larger conical shape, perfect for letting you "zero in" on all the right spots. The last head is both thin and thick for those who like to explore, featuring a rounded tip head that tapers in slightly before bulging back out to a wide midsection and back in toward the bottom. All of these heads fit easily onto the vibrator shaft with a secure O-ring to prevent slippage and increase safety. A ridged knob-dial control directs the powerful multi-speed vibrations throughout the piece. Slim and discreet, this vibrator is ideal for beginners or those just looking to explore, and the fantastic waterproof construction ensures fun in and out of the water.

Manorlands has shared in the proceeds of a fancy dress pub crawl and race night staged by Keighley Celtic Supporters Club.
The events together raised £2,000, of which £600 has been donated to the Oxenhope Sue Ryder hospice.
The remainder was distributed between the Suzie Jeng and Danny Ryan funds, and donations were given to support Leah Moorby's participation in the Taekwondo World Junior Championships and to help send a pupil from Holy Family School in Keighley to Lourdes.
Sue Ryder's Manorlands-based Keighley fundraiser, Andrew Wood, praised the club for its support.
"This is another great donation from Keighley's Celtic fans to Manorlands, and I'm sure I speak for all the organisations that benefited when I extend our thanks to everyone involved in raising this total," he said.

The Scotts MiracleGro Company Commmon (NYSE:SMG) filed Quarterly Report for the period ended 2012-12-29.
Scotts Miracle Gro Co has a market cap of $2.72 billion; its shares were traded at around $44.07 with a P/E ratio of 23.31 and P/S ratio of 0.9704. The dividend yield of Scotts Miracle Gro Co stocks is 2.83%. Scotts Miracle Gro Co had an annual average earning growth of 1.7% over the past 10 years.
Highlight of Business Operations:We reported a loss from continuing operations of $68.3 million, or $1.11 per diluted share, for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to $73.1 million, or $1.20 per diluted share, for the first quarter of fiscal 2012. We anticipated a loss in our first fiscal quarter due to the seasonal nature of our business, in which sales are heavily weighted to the spring and summer selling seasons. The decrease in our loss from continuing operations for the first three months of fiscal 2013 was driven primarily by the impact of higher volume, partially offset by higher general and administrative expenses and a reduced tax benefit due to a reduction in the effective tax rate. Diluted average common shares used in the diluted net income per common share calculation were 61.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 compared to 60.9 million for the same period a year ago.
Global Consumer segment net sales were $153.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, an increase of 2.7% from the first quarter of fiscal 2012. For the three months ended December 29, 2012, volume, pricing and foreign exchange rates favorably impacted net sales by 2.1%, 0.3% and 0.3%, respectively. Net sales in the U.S. increased $3.7 million, or 3.6% for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 as compared to the same periods in fiscal 2012. The increase in U.S. net sales was driven by higher sales of fertilizer and control products, partially offset by a decline in wild bird food products and in revenues attributable to our marketing agreement with Monsanto. Excluding the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates, net sales internationally decreased by $0.1 million,
Scotts LawnService® net sales increased by $7.2 million, or 19.1%, in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to the same period of fiscal 2012. The increase in net sales was driven by increased customer count and a weather driven delay of sales from the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 to the first quarter of 2013.
The operating loss for Scotts LawnService® decreased by $3.7 million, or 80.4%, in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to the same period of fiscal 2012. The improved performance was driven by higher net sales and improved gross margin rate, partially offset by higher SG&A spending.
On November 15, 2012, we entered into a new Master Accounts Receivable Purchase Agreement (the "2012 MARP Agreement"), with an initial stated termination date of October 30, 2013, or such later date as may be mutually agreed by the Company and the banks party thereto. The 2012 MARP Agreement, which is uncommitted, provides for the discretionary sale by the Company, and the discretionary purchase by the banks, on a revolving basis, of accounts receivable generated by sales to three specified debtors in an aggregate amount not to exceed $400 million, with debtor sublimits ranging from $100 million to $200 million. Under the terms of the 2012 MARP Agreement, the banks have the opportunity, but not the obligation, to purchase those accounts receivable offered by us at a discount (from the agreed base value thereof) effectively equal to the greater of 7-day or 3-month LIBOR plus 0.75%.

No. 82: Blake Shelton, 'She Wouldn't Be Gone' – Top 100 Country Songs
After a pair of under-performing singles from his 2007 'Pure B.S.' album, Blake Shelton resurrected his superstar status with 'She Wouldn't Be Gone.' The song gave the singer a second-consecutive No. 1 song in the 2008 calendar year — a first in the Oklahoma native's lengthy career.
Written by Jennifer Adan and Corey Batten, our pick for No. 82 on our Top 100 Country Songs list landed at No. 35 on the Billboard's 2009 year-end chart. Since 2008, Shelton has snagged an impressive six consecutive chart-topping singles, making the reigning CMA Male Vocalist of the Year one of the hottest radio acts in recent years.

We now provide hotel owners and online travel agencies (OTAs) with insights on Google's hotel listings module globally, including:
- Hotel room rates
- Listing copy, including rates & offers
- Advertiser share-of-voice
- Average ad rank
The data can be filtered for specific geo-targeted keywords, (e.g., Miami hotels), brands, locations, and even star ratings (e.g., only 3-star properties).
How Advertisers Can Use The Data
- Get much-needed visibility into Google's new hotel listing module.
- Verify price parity for the same property across different sellers' websites. Price parity is a requirement of many operator-OTA relationships but is often broken due the difficulties in monitoring thousands of constantly changing room rates.
- Identify opportunities to gain market share in hotel ads.

Ask Mac Questions and Get Answers from Experts ASAP
I do have files there. Yes, I suppose they could be erased.
I've never used Time Machine. Is it pretty intuitive?
Ok. I copied over my files. Now in Disk Utility, on the left, there's an icon and listing for 100.26 GB Maxtor OneTouch, and underneath that, indented, there's an icon and a listing for "my backup", which is the name I gave it. Which one do I select to erase?
Great. It's all working as you said. Thanks you! One more question . . . kind of unrelated . . . :0) Periodically, lately, perhaps on account of hooking up my back up drive . . . the icons on my desktop are flickering on and off . . . the magnifying glass for searching . . . date/time, etc. Sometimes they're there, sometimes not. Any advice?
Yes, I already tried resetting the PRAM yesterday. Thanks.
No, it seems to have settled down. Thanks.
Thanks, Ashik.

Liquid for skin ulcers 1/2 oz (15ml.)
We at Nutriscreen Inc. have had
good results with our patients using this product and have decided to keep it in stock.
Herbal Ingredients: Garlic Bulb, Goldenseal
Root, Usnea Herb, Myrrh Resin, Echinacea Angustifolia Root, Echinacea Purpurea Seed, Tea Tree Oil, Bayberry Root Bark, Kelp Leaf, Dulse Leaf, Black Walnut Inner Hull, Habanero
When Dr. Schulze was in his 20s, he smeared fresh pine sap over a cut
on his hand and two things happened. First, the sap stayed on the wound for days, never came off, even in water and it totally protected the wound from dirt. And second, after only a
few short days, the wound healed and never became infected. Dr. Schulze knew that tree resins were the blood of trees, which sealed and protected a tree's
wounds—so, he dissolved tree resins into his herbal tinctures and discovered one of his favorite formulae.
We use a high alcohol concentration in
this formula to dissolve the tree resins. On your skin, the alcohol evaporates and the resins leave an invisible, protective coating over the wound that won't wash off with water.
The resins are powerful and when they are added to the nine other iodine-rich herbs, this makes it a powerful formula that kills contaminants on contact.
"In 30 years of use, I have never seen any infections occur when using this
— Dr. Schulze
