Transition to College
The Transition to College
Advisers play a critical role in the success of first year students. First year students are largely unaware of what will be expected of them and are in many cases unprepared for the degree of responsibility they will be asked to assume; advisers help make them aware of their responsibilities both inside and outside the classroom. Students new to college are also frequently intimidated by their professors, find it hard to speak to them outside of class, and are unfamiliar with the overall structure the University. Many won't ask questions or seek help, and most don't know where to go if they would ask. Advisers help students have conversations they need to have but don't necessarily know how to start. These conversations range from social adjustment to academic adjustment to registration and course selection to major selection and all are opportunities to help students make the adjustment to college life and expectations.
1. Social adjustment
Many students experience some kind of difficulty making the social transition to college. Some experience anxiety about making new friends; some who live on campus will have difficulty adjusting to living with a roommate or sharing a common bathroom; some may be home sick; some will get so caught up in social activities that they neglect their studies; some don't make friends and feel lost and disconnected; some who commute may feel that they are missing out on campus life and may have a harder time making connections with other students.
Social adjustment problems can interfere with a student's ability to succeed academically. While first year advisers aren't responsible for counseling students through roommate problems or other aspects of their social experience, they can make room for such issues and concerns when talking to students. Being aware of and sensitive to this aspect of students' experience will go a long way in helping you know what questions to ask and what answers to listen for, and may give you important insight into your advisees' academic reality as well. Just letting students know that they are not alone in what they are feeling and that most of their classmates are experiencing similar issues will help them feel less alone or alienated.
If you suspect a student is having unusual difficulty managing the social transition to college, contact the Counseling Center, the Dean of Students, or the Office of First Year Programs.
2. Academic Adjustment
Students generally come to college knowing that they will need to work harder than they did in high school or that college will be harder than high school. But those generalizations, while accurate, don't necessarily mean that new students understand how to go about the work of being a college student. They don't realize that they will have to work differently. Most often, faculty set standards for students and expect them to meet those standards, but don't teach students what they need to do. Even the most motivated students can struggle as they find out what no longer works and what new methods or strategies they need to develop. Advisers can help students confront the need to make changes which typically include learning how to self-monitor and self-assess and developing study skills and habits required to succeed in college.
3. Major Exploration
A significant number of students will engage in major exploration in their first year of college. Many of those who enter college having declared a major will question their choice or become interested in a major they did not originally consider and those who enter undecided will focus on exploring and deciding on a major. While many students will know what they want to study before starting college, research suggests that as many or more reach final decisions on majors during college, not prior to entering. National surveys estimate that 50-75% of students who enter college having declared a major will change their major at least once, and over two thirds will change their major during their first year.
When working with first year students, it's important to know that many are reluctant to admit to themselves or even to an adviser that they really don't know what they want to major in. As a result, it is not uncommon for first year students to stick with a choice of major that is premature, uninformed, or unrealistic. Students who chose their majors prematurely or without proper information are more at risk for stopping out or loosing motivation than are students who enter undecided or who use their first year of college to explore other options.
When talking to students about major choice, also remember to:
- make sure that students know that they must declare by the time they complete 45 credits that students may speak with an Academic Resources adviser at any time if they are unsure of their major choice or want to explore options.
- remind students that INT 197H: Exploring Majors and Careers was designed to help students research majors and careers and to identify those that match their interests, values, and abilities.
4. Dealing with Bureaucracy
Most students enter college with no experience managing the kinds of complex administrative structures that make up the university. Once they are here, they will encounter bureaucracy head on as they deal with problems and issues related to financial aid, billing, housing, meal plans, account-related and administrative holds, etc. They are unskilled at formulating specific questions and often don't have the experience or knowledge to understand everything they are being told. First year students will rely on their adviser to help them learn how to work with university procedures, offices, and staff to make sure they get the information they need.

Swedish crossover stars Abba made a career out of addictive, bubbly pop songs like Dancing Queen, Waterloo and Take a Chance on Me. Annie-Frid's lower register and Agnetha's high notes along with the musicality of Bjorn and Benny proved irresistible to international audiences.
Not only have Abba been featured in their movie, but Abba music has been adapted for the stage and screen versions of Mama Mia! and Abba music has inspired numerous tribute bands. The band has played sold out shows at Wembley and Budokan and hung up their glittery jumpsuits recently but now they're back with a full set of Abba tour dates! Don't forget to check out fellow Swedish artist Roxette tickets in 2012 as well!

August 26, 2013
Most law enforcement agencies in Virginia continue to use outdated eyewitness identification procedures two years after the state recommended a model policy, a study by a University of Virginia law professor found.
Brandon Garrett released findings of his survey of police lineup procedures Monday. Only 6 percent of the 144 police departments and sheriff's offices that supplied their policies have implemented the "best practices" adopted by the state Department of Criminal Justice Services in 2011, Garrett said. The vast majority are still using outdated policies from 2005 and 1993.
One-fifth of the 201 agencies that responded to the survey had no written policy at all, in violation of a 2005 state law.
According to Garrett, the failure to adopt best practices can have dire consequences. Thirteen of the 16 people wrongly convicted in Virginia and later exonerated by DNA evidence originally were misidentified by eyewitnesses, he said.
One of the study's most troubling findings, Garrett said, is that most agencies still don't use "blind" lineups in which the officer in charge doesn't know which person in the live or photo lineup is the actual suspect. Only 42 agencies require blind lineups, while 16 make them optional.
Garrett said blind lineups are central to the model policy and are the most crucial reform agencies can make.
Garrett said, "It's really hard not to give unintentional cues. Especially if you are doing it one at a time. You can say "is this the one?", "Is this the one?". You might linger over a photograph without even meaning too. It's really simple. All you have to do is have six photographs, shuffle them, and give them to someone else to show the eyewitness and that's it."
The study found that 33 agencies require or allow the use of sequential lineups — when pictures are shown to a witness one at a time — but without making sure the officer doesn't know which photo shows the suspect. Garrett said such a procedure is especially error-prone because it prolongs interaction with the administrator, providing more opportunity for the witness to pick up cues from the officer running the lineup.
Also, only nine agencies authorize the use of a "folder shuffle" method recommended in the DCJS model policy for small agencies that may not have an officer who doesn't know the identity of the suspect. Under that method, the lineup is made blind by putting photos in folders, adding a few blanks, shuffling them and allowing the eyewitness — but not the administrator — to look inside the folders.
The General Assembly has resisted mandating specific eyewitness ID procedures, trusting the agencies to adopt best practices. Garrett concluded that if police don't improve their procedures, stronger action should be taken.

Posted by Reviewer1193698 From Finland on Nov 11, 2011
Purchased at iHerb
I bought this to sweeten low carb ice cream. I usually use NuNaturals stevia for that purpose, but I thought to try something different for a change and I chose this because one of my favorite food bloggers use this sweetener. But wow, this was quite a terrible experience! It didn't matter that it felt a bit cold in mouth. It tasted sweet, not bitter at all or anything, but the aftertaste was so confusing. Actually it's hard to describe it, because it wasn't really the taste but more like a feeling that came after the taste. It spread all over my mouth and made me feel nauseous. Even after several hours I still had a feeling of sickness. I tried to make ice cream with this twice, but I couldn't eat more than just a few spoonfuls, because at both times it made me feel so terrible. My ice cream machine couldn't get the ice cream made with this to thicken properly either. I think I will still try this for baking, perhaps this product is more suitable for that kind of sweetening. *Update*: This was good for baking! I didn't get that horrible feeling when I ate baked goods made with this.
awful aftertaste
Posted by nzreviewer From New Zealand on Mar 09, 2014
Purchased at iHerb
I've only used this once so far, but am hesitant to try it again. Used it to make brownies for a low-sugar dessert (a recipe I'd tried previously using coconut sugar with success), but while the texture was good, and it didn't seem *too* bad while you were eating it, it left an absolutely awful aftertaste - we had to throw the whole lot out.

Tastes Like High Quality Normal Yoghurt
Have to admit though, only buy it on promotion because its not a vegan essential! But when I do buy it, the whole family enjoys it!

Luscious soya snacks
I like the slightly unusual fruit choices. Both the cherry and blueberry flavours are excellent. Each pot contains large juicy pieces of fresh fruit. The yoghurt is silky and sufficiently sweet. Equally good as dairy fruit yoghurts.

text: Let me answer the easy question first. MaP ratings are pretty much meaningless now days. Most early low flow toilets performed so poorly that this rating was important, but today it think all toilets meet or exceed the minimum 500 MaP requirement. Now the harder question. I frankly don't know what manufacturers, if any, have a listing of distance from bowl rim to water. The water "spot" is the size of the water surface which is determined by the internal height of the trap weir, and while that my have relevance to you question, it doesn't really answer it. Toto toilets all flush extremely well, so any model in the Toto line would be satisfactory from that standpoint. ADA rated toilets must be elongate. Universal height are basically the same as ADA except the flush handles on ADA tanks can be purchased either left or right sides. One thing you need to know is the rough in size(s). To get this, measure from the finished wall to a flange bolt. Toilets come in 3 rough-in sizes. 10', 12", and 14", but all will fit in less space than their rated size. Unfortunately, there is no industry standard on exactly how much space is needed, but if you are within an inch or even a tad more you will usually be OK, but if you get a measurement of more than that, check back here. Since 12" is the standard rough in, you will find more choices with that size. Toto has some options available if you have a 10" or 14" rough in.

Swansea City boss Michael Laudrup has re-ignited his interest to sign Ghana winger Albert Adomah in January.
According to The People, City will have to cough over $ 3.5 million for the services of the player who has impressed heavily for the Championship side.
Talks between the two parties have reached an advanced stage with the player expected to leave Ashton Gate.
Swansea City showed an interest in Adomah last summer, but failed to match City's estimation of around £3m and looked elsewhere instead.
Adomah is a key part of City manager Derek McInnes' planning and the Scot will not want to lose arguably his most exciting player, let alone to a Championship rival.
But City's board of directors have a responsibility to reduce the deficit and, as such, are sure to consider any offers that may be forthcoming next month.
Adomah is part of Ghana's provisional 26-man squad expected to begin pre-Nations Cup camping in Dubai early January.
Adomah will explode in South Africa, one of our best and consistent player today. Give the right wing and he will give numerous assists and score at the same time. I am pinning on my hopes on Adomah, Wakaso and Rabiu Mohammed. Watch this trio to carry Ghana through, nobody will mark them because they are not that popular like Gyan, Kwadwo and Dede.
There is no truth in this rumour.
AA is more likely to a:Stay b:Move to Crystal Palace if they sell Zaha.He ma not even make the final cup for the ACN.
We've really missed the Ghanaian influence in the EPL, will be great if he joins Swansea in January.

How to Import vBulletin Forum into bbPress on WordPress
few years back i proudly posted of migrating to vBulletin premium forum system and boasted about the great move I made back then! Sadly, I am having to change my opinion after few years of being on the vBulletin platform which I paid 300 USD (just to download). I must admit that it is one of the most powerful and scalable forum script as of today but they lack that kind of support and customer service. It is always good when everything goes smooth but things change once you are hacked or your forum breaks.
Several times, I observed that the forum was broken and I managed to fix it with some break-fix techniques but finally my forum was hacked and without me knowing, the system was injected with several shell scripts by malicious hackers and never knew about this unless I started observing several phishing attempts from my server. I was quick to clean up and change passwords, in a matter of hours, I was hacked again! Later on further investigation I found that there were scripts everywhere hidden into folders with legit looking file names. It became very hard as I did have the below challenges / road blocks with vBulletin: Read more

Dictionary.com defines complacency as, "a feeling of quiet pleasure or security, often while unaware of some potential danger, defect, or the like; self-satisfaction or smug satisfaction with an existing situation, condition, etc.". Complacency is one of the most dangerous aspects of fantasy hockey. You might be enjoying a 20-point lead in your roto-league, but that can vanish very easily in a course of two-to-three weeks. Complacency is also key in head-to-head leagues, where you could be leading the regular season by 200 points, but still get beat down by a hot team during the playoffs. It is vital that you keep up to date with all your information during the stretch run to maintain your lead, or make it a photo finish in your league with the current leaders.

The Ducks are playing inconsistently heading into the final stretch run of the season as they were blown out by the Thrashers after huge back-to-back wins over Calgary. Ryan Getzlaf has had a slow February as he only has two points in six contests for the Ducks. Corey has faired much better with five points in the same amount of games. Chris Pronger, who is headlining the rumor mill in Anaheim, only has four points in the past 15 contests. J.S. Giguere was pulled from Sunday night's contest after allowing five goals in 28 minutes of play. Jonas Hiller has much better stats this season and is certainly more deserving of the number one gig but you just can't afford to sit a $5.5 mil goalie on the bench. Giggy will remain the number one in Anaheim.
The Flames picked up three wins in four contests this past week, while tallying 17 goals in the process. It was their seven-goal gem on Saturday night that helped put them over the edge. Todd Bertuzzi re-joined Jarome Iginla on the Flames top-line and registered six points. Iggy is still struggling, the Flames scored seven goals on Saturday, and Iggy picked up a grand total of ZERO points. He is a bonafide superstar, so owners shouldn't worry too much, he'll be back to scoring form fairly soon. Matt Lombardi is picking up a lot of the scoring slack as he picked up seven points in the last four contests. If you take a look at the buzzings above, he's nearly on every category. We'll see next week if he can keep it up. Dion Phaneuf was pulling an Iggy, as he also put up a goose egg on Saturday night. Miikka Kiprusoff continues to lead the league in wins with 33. His .906 save percentage is a bit low though.
Big news out of Chicago is the injury suffered by Patrick Sharp on Saturday night. Sharp was driven into the boards by the Stars' Steve Ott, and looks to have injured his left knee. Martin Havlat tied a season-high three points on Saturday night against the Stars. He should be the main beneficiary now that Sharp is out of the Blackhawks' lineup. Dustin Byfuglien should also enjoy some added responsibilityl. Brian Campbell has eight points in the past nine games, he's rounding back into last seaon's offensive form after struggling for the first two months at the beginning of this season. He should return back to the 60 point plateau which he hit last season with the Sabres/Sharks. Nikolai Khabibulin is still sidelined with a LBI, but should return back into the Hawks' lineup later this week.
Columbus through strong defensive play has gotten themselves into a great position for the playoffs. They currently sit sixth in the Western Conference and a playing some quality hockey. Kristian Huselius picked up three points in Saturday night's win over the Hurricanes. Rick Nash also picked up three assists in the contest. Hopefully that will jumpstart his cold February in which he has only tallied one point in five games. Steve Mason is showing no ill signs of mononucleosis as he returned to the lineup and posted back-to-back wins this past weekend.
Colorado will welcome back a few friendly faces into the lineup as the injury list is about to look a lot nicer for the Avalanche. Adam Foote returned on Sunday after missing 17 games with a torn tricep. Many fantasy owners will be awaiting Paul Stastny's return to the Avs lineup later this week. He was averaging just under a point-per-game and firing 2.65 SOG/contest before sustaining the forearm injury that sidelined him for 23 games. With Stastny's imminent return, Wojtek Wolski will probably lose his top-line center spot in the Avs rotation. He'll most likely re-join Tyler Arnasson and Marek Svatos on the Avs second unit. Peter Budaj has a 3.01 gaa and a .891 SP for the month of February, probably borderline droppable if you are in a deeper league.
The Stars have gotten to where they are thanks to the brilliant play of Marty Turco, but the problem is he can't do it all by himself. Turco's 4-3-0 record with a 1.81 gaa and .934 SP in the month of February has been carrying the Stars. The problem is the offense needs to tally more than the two goals per game that they averaged this past week. Jere Lehtinen hit a bit of a snag on the score sheet as he registered just two points this week, but did manage to fire 12 shots on goal. Brian Sutherby picked up three goals in the last five games, while playing fourth line minutes for the Stars. If an injury befalls Mike Ribeiro or Brad Richards, you might see Sutherby's fantasy value sky rocket.
Dan Cleary is filling in Tomas Holmstrom's role perfectly as he now has seven points in eight February contests. His also averaging 3.25 SOG/game for the month as well. Jiri Hudler continues to get shafted in Detroit as they are electing to go with youngster Ville Leino over Hudler for a top-six role on offense. Niklas Kronwall is certainly benefiting from playing alongside Nik Lidstrom. Kronwall has 17 points in the last 17 games while Lidstrom has 13 during the same span. Lidstrom is also beginning to shoot the puck a lot more as he is averaging 2.875 SOG/game in February compared to 2.5 SOG/game in January. You would think Mike Babcock's patience is wearing thin for Chris Osgood as he has a 3-1-1 record and a 3.30 gaa along with a .875 SP for the month of February. If you compare those numbers to Ty Conklin's, 3-0-0. 2.00 gaa and a decent .917 SP, you should be easily able to figure out who's the more deserving number one in Detroit.
The Oilers' blue-line heading into the season was probably one of the deepest in the NHL. Following two key injuries this week, the Oilers might actually be looking to add more defensive depth at the trade deadline. Lubomir Visnovsky will be sidelined for the rest of the season with a shoulder injury and Denis Grebeshkov will also sidelined with a high ankle sprain. This could be the boost that Tom Gilbert needs to become a 50-point defenseman. He's currently averaging 21:07 in ice-time per contest, look for that to jump climb towards the 24 minute mark at the end of the season. The most significant jump will be his power-play time as he is averaging 2:39 on the power-play, and someone will need to chew up the 5:01 that Visnovsky leaves behind. Shawn Horcoff returned back into the Oilers' lineup and picked up three points in two games while being reunited with Ales Hemsky and Dustin Penner on the top-line. Dwayne Roloson continued to play well as he allowed six goals in three contests this week, while maintaining a blistering .967 SP. At 43% Yahoo owned, he could be a real bargain bin find for the stretch run of this season.
Los Angeles
The playoff intensity is being to show as the Oilers and the Kings took part in a slugfest on Saturday afternoon. Defensemen Denis Gauthier returned back into the lineup after serving his five-game suspension. Oscar Moller also returned to the Kings' lineup after missing a handful of games from an injury suffered in the WJC. The Kings are happy with their top-six, so I don't think they'd want to toy around with the chemistry, which should result in Moller getting returned back to his junior team in Seattle. Anze Kopitar is returning back to his scoring form as he has five points and 20 SOG in six games. Dustin Brown continues to fire a ton of shots on goal as he now has 222 in 54 games which averages to 4.1 SOG/game. The Kings' blue-line is crowded but Kyle Quincey continues to step up to the plate as he's picked up three points and more importantly 20 SOG in six February games. It's the confidence that impresses me the most. Jon Quick continues to run with the number one gig in LA. He has a 4-1-1 record with a 1.80 gaa along with a .933 SP for the month of February. If he can maintain those stats, look for Kings to easily reach the playoffs.
Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Senators, could be a rude awakening call for the Wild. They face the Flames, Red Wings and the Blackhawks this week, which could help build momentum towards the post-season, or completely destroy their confidence. Mikko Koivu is doing his part as he has five points and 19 SOG in the month of February so far. P.M. Bouchard also has five points during that span, but only has a 1.33 SOG/game average to show for it. He'll need to show me a higher shooting rate for the rest of this season, if I were to put my confidence in him next season. Owen Nolan is definitely feeling rejuvenated in Minny as he now has 16 points in the last 17 games. He's also averaging 2.71 SOG/game during that span. He's getting top-six ice-time in Minny, and averaging 3:28 on the power-play per contest, so if you have a roster spot, why not take a gamble on the 7% Yahoo-owned veteran?
The Predators are heating up at the right time as they have gone 7-3 in the past 10 games. Pekka Rinne could the main reason why the Preds have experienced such great success as he's gone 6-2-0 with a 2.35 gaa along with a .925 SP since the All-Star game. Shea Weber continues to struggle as he only has one point in the last 11 contests, but does have 38 SOG during that span. Steve Sullivan is averaging 17:01 and 3:35 on the power-play per contest since returning to the Preds lineup. Jason Arnott remains to be hot with seven points and 31 SOG in eight February contests. With the Preds getting hot for the final stretch run of the season, I'd try to make a strong move at trying to acquire Arnott for your fantasy squad.
The Coyotes are really struggling as they are mirred in a huge late-season slump. Ilya Bryzgalov has been atrocious with a 1-5 record and a horrendous 3.92 gaa along with a dreadful .887 SP for the month of February. He needs to pick his game up if the Yotes have any shot of a playoff berth this season. If I were a Bryzgalov owner I'd think about cutting bait and see if I can land a Jon Quick or Chris Mason instead of relying on Bryz to turn it around. Olli Jokinen just doesn't seem motivated as he only has 36 points in 51 games. Maybe a deal to a contending team might be what Jokinen needs to shake out of his season-long slump. Viktor Tikhonov picked up three points in Saturday night's loss to the Flames, he doesn't have much value for this season, but is someone to keep an eye on for future years. Ed Jovanovski hasn't had a great season, but is quietly becoming a great fantasy contributor for the month of February as he has four points, 30 PIMs and 16 SOG in six contests.
San Jose
The Sharks might have hit a midseason hump as they have lost five of the last six contests. On the positive side, four of those losses have been in overtime so the Sharks are getting points out of the losses. Patrick Marleau now has 30 goals and is four shy of his career-high 34 in which he set with the Sharks in the 2005-06 season. Jonathan Cheechoo scored his first goal in nine-games, which makes him one for 25 during that span. Evgeni Nabokov has not had a great February as he has a 1-1-3 record with a 3.68 gaa along with a sub-par .867 SP. Nabby is a good goalie, so you'll just have to ride this blip out for the time being, numbers will normalize fairly soon.
St. Louis
Chris Mason is red-hot with a 6-2-3 record in the past 11 starts, which includes three shutouts. Mason really has dominated now that he has assume the number one reigns in St. Louis. He jumped from being 23% Yahoo owned, to 34% owned this past week, so it's not too late to add him to your fantasy roster. Andy McDonald picked up three points in three games, and returned to the same scoring pace at which he left off after sustaining a broken ankle almost three months ago. Brad Boyes is maintaining his hot-streak as he now has 13 points in the past eight contests, while firing 22 shots on goal and a plus five during that span. He's tied for second in the league with 17 power-play markers. Carlo Colaiacovo continues to lead the Blues' defensemen in power-play ice-time while averaging 3:16 per contest. The only downside is that he doesn't pick up very many SOG.
The newly dubbed "RPM" line of Ryan Kesler, Pavol Demitra and Mats Sundin has combined for a total of 26 points in six contests for the Canucks. The trio should enjoy success for the duration of this fantasy season. Roberto Luongo remains undefeated for the month of February as he's gone 5-0-0, with a 3.00 gaa along with a .899 SP in five contests. Alex Burrows was moved up to the Canucks top-line to play alongside the Sedin twins, which resulted in a two point outing against the Canadiens on Sunday night. If he can maintain that roster spot look for Burrows to set a new career-high in points this season. Alex Edler is also stepping up his play as he's picked up seven points in six February contests. He's teetering around the 20 minute mark for ice-time in the last 10 contests.
Remember complacency is never a good thing, whether you are ahead of the pack in the standings or below you should always look for ways to consistently improve your fantasy squad. I bid you adieu until next week.

Where does your water come from?
Over the decades, Phoenix has developed a diverse portfolio of water supplies to meet the city's water needs.
Your water comes from one of these four main categories of supply:
- Surface and groundwater from the Salt River Project (SRP);
- Water from the Colorado River, delivered through the Central Arizona Project (CAP);
- Ground water pumped from the City's wells; and
- Reclaimed water.
Caption plum:Central Arizona Project Canal west of Phoenix
The Central Arizona Project (CAP) conveys water about 190 miles from the Colorado River at Lake Havasu on the Arizona-California border through a system of canals to Phoenix, Tucson and beyond. The CAP system includes a series of pumps and an integral storage reservoir at Lake Pleasant. The system is capable of carrying up to 1.8 million acre-feet each year. Visit Related Links in the bottom left corner of this page for more information on the CAP.
The Salt River Project (SRP) conveys surface water from the Verde River and Salt River watersheds that lie to the north and east of Phoenix. The SRP system is composed of six dams, 1,300 miles of canals and 255 high-capacity wells. Phoenix water treatment plants receive about 20 percent of the roughly one million acre-feet of water delivered each year by SRP to the metropolitan area.
Unlike the other sources of supplies - which can be used by anyone within the city limits - SRP supplies are available only to certain parts of the city, referred to as "on-project" lands. Visit Related Links in the bottom left corner of this page for more information on SRP.
The watersheds of the Salt, Verde and Colorado Rivers cover large areas of the Western U.S., including areas far from Phoenix. Because of this, wet or dry conditions can vary considerably from what we are experiencing in the Phoenix area in any given year.
Caption plum:Salt and Verde River Watersheds. Map courtesy Salt River Project.
Having diverse supplies helps the city in planning for future growth and coping with shortages. The CAP accounts for around two-fifths of the water supply. SRP supplies account for about one-half. The remainder of your water comes from wells or is recycled water.
You can learn more about your water supply in the 2011 Water Resources Plan

He believes obesity is "the single biggest public health issue in the country," and the statistics agree with him. The government's Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) notes that over one-third of U.S. adults and 17 percent of children are obese. That is almost tripled from 1980. Because of the adverse health impacts (e.g., stroke, some cancers, heart disease, Type 2 diabetes) medical costs directly associated with obesity were approximately $147 billion in 2008. On a financial level, no other health condition has the reached deeper into our society's pockets than obesity.
These numbers show that the prevalence of obesity has reached epidemic status in America. Unfortunately, obesity is impacting our children's health and future, not just our own. This is the first time in two centuries that the current generation will not outlive its parent's generation. Life expectancies are decreasing due to obesity. A child with obesity can expect to have breathing problems, fatty liver disease, high blood pressure and Type 2 diabetes. Fortunately, obesity is a preventable health condition; unfortunately, preventing childhood obesity presents formidable challenges. Instead, the focus is on "treating" the effects of obesity, such as diabetes, as opposed to solving the initial cause. Simply stated, obesity is the number one health problem in America, and it will not disappear without action. Deciding on that action is mandatory to leaving a healthier generation behind.
All eyes are on the decision New York City comes to. It will set the course on how other large cities and states will handle the same dilemma. We should take notice that New York was the first major city to ban artificial trans-fat in restaurant cooking. Is NYC pioneering the soda ban, or is it overstepping the health boundaries?
As adults — parents, teachers, business owners, political leaders — we are collectively, unmistakably failing our children. With millions of obese children in America, the solutions rest with all of us: parents changing attitudes, teachers educating about the deadly epidemic, community and business leaders raising awareness and putting resources forward and, yes, governments implementing paternalistic policies to try to reduce the epidemic of childhood obesity. The government requires us to put seat belts on our kids. The risk to our kids from the slow killer of childhood obesity is much, much greater. The news in New York prompts us to think about how we can do more to prevent childhood obesity in our own state. Some have noted that taxing these ridiculously unhealthy excess portions of sugary drinks would at least shift some of the financial burden on to the individual and might reduce consumption. Whether we favor grass-roots approaches or top-down government interventions, we can all agree that our children deserve better from us. Allowing the current situation of escalating childhood obesity, diabetes and shortened life expectancy is just not an acceptable option.

His poems also celebrate what he calls the 'Everyday Music' of village life - the sounds of birds and farmyard animals, the wind and rain of tropical storms, the laughter of family and friends and, above all, the songs and stories he heard all around him. This musical tradition is very important in Jamaican culture so it's not surprising that the sound of words is central to James's poems. Listen for the way he uses repeated lines like the chorus in a song, or the strong rhythms and rhymes that can help you learn his poems by heart. James also uses the Jamaican accent and dialect to bring his poems to life - find out what a "duppy" is and why you should be frightened of one, or what you're missing if you're a "No-Toot". When he reads, James can change his voice to become whoever or whatever is speaking the poem - his mother, a baby, a brother who's scared of his sister's muscles, even a guinea pig!
But James also speaks about difficult subjects, particularly the racism he's seen in Jamaica, the USA, and the UK where he's lived for many years now. In one touching poem he talks to Josie, a nine-year-old he taught in school who wrote to him about the bullying she was suffering. James comforts her, saying it's 'Okay, Brown Girl, Okay'. In the poem he imagines a world where everyone can "grow brightly" whatever their skin colour. Finally, James Berry's many books of poetry and stories, for both adults and children, focus on the joy of living; as he says in his poem 'When I Dance' "I celebrate all rhythms".
His recording was made for The Poetry Archive on 26 April 2004 at The Audio Workshop, London and was produced by Richard Carrington.

Review by Tom Avila
FOUR MORE YEARS is a quirky Swedish film that could only be improved if all showings were accompanied by a brief outline of the Nordic country's political system. Fortunately for audiences in D.C., the embassy staffer sitting three seats over from you in the theater can likely provide such background information. Funny and incredibly charming, Four More Years is the rare modern love story that might actually deserve to be compared to Romeo and Juliet.
No, no one dies. But while David and Martin are not separated by feuding families, they are each rising stars in Sweden's opposing political parties, a wall that seems far more impenetrable.
David (Björn Kjellman) is a married conservative who appears on his way to becoming the next prime minister of Sweden. Martin (Eric Ericson) is recently, seemingly quite frequently, single, (his latest boyfriend having taken offense at Martin's decision to answer a work-related phone call during oral sex) and is considered by David's staffers to be, quite simply, the devil.
How could they not fall in love?
The movie's basic concept could quite easily spiral out of control and dive into the deep pool of melodrama that is often the refuge of films where married men fall in love with other men. Instead, director Tova Magnusson-Norling has brought together a cast with a brilliant sense of timing to deliver a story that keeps the pacing brisk and the mood, while not always sunny, suitably bright.
Of particular note is the chemistry between Kjellman and Ericson who manage to create characters that convey a genuine fondness for one another. They make more complex decisions, trading the flat out frenzy of love and lust, and allow the audience to see something softer and more emotionally mature. We actually see that first itch of attraction, played out with nothing more than a kind of shy nervousness that makes both men utterly irresistible.
It's hard to imagine, in our current climate, that a love story set in the midst of a rancorous political campaign could bring a smile to one's face. In doing so, Four More Years distinguishes itself as a real frontrunner.>

This one sure hit a nerve…..the most annoying habits at the gym.
The top five are" Hogging or monopolizing the equipment at busy times.
Does anyone pay attention to the sign that says 30 minute limit? NO
Not returning the free weights to the rack
Leaving the equipment covered in sweat
Bad personal hygiene
But two more…..people who don't work out and just appear to be posing and talking loudly on cell phones.
And then there's what Sam this morning called "gym-timidation"
which is exactly what happened to me in New York the other day at the hotel gym.
I was using the treadmill. Had it on 4.3 speed which is a brisk walk for my "short legs"
And a woman came over and said I was making too much noise. I responded yes, I know this thing is squealing, must need some WD40. No, she said I was walking too hard…improperly… and not doing myself any good at all. Plus she said I shouldn't be holding on to the bar in front of me. If not, why is that bar there? LOL. Anyway, I must have looked as embarrassed as I felt because she then said I was adorable but she's a personal trainer and was just trying to help. So I did what she said and then as soon as she left I went back to the way I always walk the treadmill…fast and hanging on for dear life!!!
I knew I shouldn't have gotten out of PE in high school when I had scoliosis. I never learned how to walk correctly!!!!!

The Pew Charitable Trusts is driven by the power of knowledge to solve today's most challenging problems. Pew applies a rigorous, analytical approach to improve public policy, inform the public and stimulate civic life.
Mar 06, 2006
There is now relatively broad public contact with the online dating world. Some 31 percent of American adults say they know someone who has used a dating website and 15 percent of American adults – about 30 million people – say they know someone who has been in a long-term relationship or married someone he or she met online.
Yet, dating websites are just one of many online avenues that can facilitate a romantic connection. Three out of four Internet users who are single and looking for a romantic partner have done at least one dating-related activity online—ranging from using dating websites, to searching for information about prospective dates, to flirting via email and instant messaging, to browsing for information about the local singles scene.
Some 11 percent of all Internet users and 37 percent of those who are single and looking say they have gone to dating websites. A majority of them say they have had positive experiences and believe their use of such sites helps them to find a better match. A notable number of these online daters have found firsthand that lasting romance can be forged online; 17 percent of them say they have entered long-term relationships or married someone they met through the services.
At the same time, while online dating is becoming more commonplace, there are still concerns in the wider public about the dangers of posting personal information on dating sites and about the honesty of those who pursue online dating.
The Pew Health Group's new Web site informs and engages people about issues that affect their health and well-being.

On an August night in 1981, the German band Kraftwerk played at the Ritz, on East Eleventh Street in Manhattan, in support of its latest album, "Computer World." The only instruments onstage were actually machines: reel-to-reel tape recorders, synthesizers, keyboards, and a calculator. All four members of the group had short hair and dressed identically, in black button-down shirts, black pants, and shiny shoes, which made them look more like valets than like musicians. That didn't bother them, as they didn't like the idea of being a band—or even musicians—and often referred to themselves as "operators."
For the song "Pocket Calculator," one member triggered percussion with a drumstick. Another used a Stylophone, a metal keyboard played with a small stylus. Florian Schneider, a founding member, played the calculator, which was wired into the sound system, so that pressing the keys made audible beeps. His partner, Ralf Hütter, who is the only remaining original member of Kraftwerk, sang the lyrics of the song in a monotone—an approach that he calls Sprechgesang, or "spoken singing"—and played a small Mattel keyboard. "By pressing down a special key / it plays a little melody," he intoned. Schneider responded by playing something sort of like a melody with the calculator. At one point, Hütter bent down and let the audience play the keyboard. Recently, Hütter said, "I wanted to show them that anyone could make electronic music."
That year, songs from "Computer World" were played on "urban" radio stations in New York, such as Kiss-FM and WBLS. The Bronx d.j. and hip-hop pioneer Afrika Bambaataa was in the audience at the Ritz. He had found Kraftwerk's 1977 album, "Trans-Europe Express," in a record bin several years earlier. "I was just looking at these guys on the cover and saying, 'Whoa, whoa, what the hell is this?' " he told me. "Wow! Something's here that's very funky, and I got to play it for my audience." He added that Kraftwerk's battery of gear at the Ritz made it look as if they were playing "washing machines." (Because of the difficulty of re-creating their recordings with such complicated equipment, the band has visited the U.S. only seven times in its forty-two-year history. Now they use laptops.) The following year, Bambaataa, along with the musician John Robie and the producer Arthur Baker, combined the beat of "Numbers," from "Computer World," and the melody of the title track from "Trans-Europe Express" to create "Planet Rock," an early hip-hop song that spawned a small clutch of genres, including electro, Miami bass, and Brazilian baile funk. "Computer World," Kraftwerk's masterpiece, sold less than a million copies, yet its influence has been surprisingly broad—even Coldplay, for its single "Talk," from 2005, has used a melody from the album.
One song on "Computer World," called "Home Computer," has a distinctive, ascending arpeggio that feels a bit like bubbles rising quickly through mercury. That arpeggio shows up in LCD Soundsystem's single "Disco Infiltrator," from 2005. It's also referenced in Missy Elliott's "Lose Control," from the same year. A few days ago, I was walking through SoHo and passed the Uniqlo store, with its painfully fluorescent lighting, which illuminates only slightly less fluorescent clothing. Nicki Minaj's hit "Starships," a savvy combination of dubstep and traditional house, was bleeding onto the street. When I listened closely, I realized that this version was actually a mashup with one of the many songs that has used "Home Computer" 's arpeggio. Maybe it was Kraftwerk, or LCD Soundsystem, or Missy, or someone else entirely. It didn't matter—the sound still signifies newness, joy, and some kind of ascent.
It turned out not only that anyone could make electronic music but that almost everyone wanted to. Kraftwerk is perhaps the only group that played the Ritz in 1981 that sounds entirely current today. Plenty of people saw the machines coming, but nobody else has listened as carefully to them, or documented their strengths as lovingly.
This month, the Museum of Modern Art opened a retrospective of Kraftwerk, its first for a musical act. In the six-story atrium, Kraftwerk played an abbreviated version of its repertoire, in chronological order of its albums, on eight consecutive nights. The shows cherry-picked from each, followed by an hour or so of the group's best-known songs. "These aren't concerts," Klaus Biesenbach, the chief curator at large for the Museum of Modern Art, who organized the exhibit with the curatorial assistant Eliza Ryan, explained. "It's a retrospective; it's curated. They aren't playing everything they ever recorded, any more than we could fill the museum with every photo Cindy Sherman has ever taken."
Demand for tickets overloaded the Web site of the third-party vender, ShowClix, minutes after they went on sale. Buyers were limited to two tickets each, and ticket holders had to show identification to obtain a wristband required for admission, to prevent scalping. Still, listings on Craigslist showed up immediately, offering entry in exchange for more than two thousand dollars and, in one instance, for an evening with a "hot, swinger couple." Animatronic robots designed to look like the band members were on display in the lobby, and listening stations loaded with the band's albums were in place near the atrium. Hütter said that seeing these robots was no better or worse than seeing the band members themselves. "The robots are members of Kraftwerk," he added.

First off-great forum! Glad I found this place! My wife and I bought our 700 SF single story 2 bedroom/1 bathroom ranch with attached garage in Northwestern NJ a little over three years ago. We just finished the basement which gave us an extra 400 SF of living space in the form of a family room, but we'll need more room soon. We knew we would either have to add on or move one day since we are hoping to have three children (our first is due this September ) eventually, so with the housing market being what it is, I think it would be wise to plan for an addition in the next 4-5 years. Basically we need one more full bath and one more bedroom for a total of three bedrooms and two full baths. The addition I've sketched out will simply be a 15' x 26' box tacked onto the rear of our existing home. This will provide the space for two new bedrooms. One of the existing bedrooms will be divided into space for a hallway to access the two new bedrooms, and a full bath connected to the master bedroom. I've been fooling around with ideas in Google Sketchup (amazing tool considering it's a free download) and made up a graphic to illustrate the existing house vs. the planned addition:
The blue walls are the existing walls of the home so you can pretty much tell what the original building envelope looks like. The pink walls represent the planned new construction. The grey walls represent the present bedroom which will be cut up into a hallway and a master bathroom. I realize this isn't a DIY construction site, but I figured that some background would be helpful. Right now the home has a 6 year old forced air oil furnace which we supplement with an add-on wood furnace which is integrated into the existing ductwork. We like heating with wood, and provide most of our heat this way, burning five cords or so per winter, but we hate the forced air heat. There are lots of cold spots in the house no matter what we do, and the dryness is just awful in the dead of winter. In any event, we want to be rid of it when we renovate. I will be doing a lot of the work myself-my FIL is in the construction industry and will be serving as my adviser for the entire project. He will get me subs for the excavation, foundation (there will be a full basement under the addition), and electrical, but the rest we'll be doing ourselves/with the help of a few laborers. Basically I'm trying to get an idea of what skills, tools, etc...I need to install an oil boiler myself.
First, obviously I'm starting from scratch as there is no existing infrastructure for hot water heat. Part of what always made me leery of hot water heat was sweating copper and working with rigid pipe in general. Despite a lot of DIY experience this was something I never quite mastered. Lately though I've been reading a lot about PEX and it's applications in hot water heating. I also happened to see an episode of "Ask This Old House" where they used PEX to add a zone to an existing hot water heat system and it looked fairly straightforward. Is installing a boiler these days really as easy as running attaching PEX to each zone valve, snaking it up to the appropriate baseboard, and then doing the same to bring it back to the cold side of the boiler? I'm hoping so since working with flexible PEX would be a lot easier than cutting copper pipe, sweating elbows, etc... I have the basic idea of how a boiler works down, but one thing I know nothing about is sizing baseboards for a room-can anyone tell me what a good installation would look like in house like mine? I know that I need to do a heat loss calculation to size the boiler, but I have no idea how much baseboard an 11 x 14 bedroom or an 8 x 11 bathroom needs. Any help or guidance will be greatly appreciated!

Hashcat best64 Rule Details: Updated After The Best64 ChallengePosted by alex in Security
Recently our friends working on the Hashcat projects had a open community challenge called The Best64 Challenge or TB64C. The reason being the fact that TB64C was to improve the most widely used ruleset that comes with all of the Hashcat products including oclHashcat-plus, oclHashcat-lite, hashcat, and hascat-gui. There is nothing better than when projects such as Hashcat get the community involved and what better way to do so than to provide a contest for people to provide feedback in the for of personal experience. Anyhow awhile back I wrote an article on tools.question-defense.com that described each of the best64 rules in more detail and there was a request for the article to be updated now that the ruleset has been improved. Below are the details of the new best64.rule file that will be released in all new releases of the Hashcat software line as of 04-21-2012.atom, best64, best64.rule, hashcat, hashcat-gui, oclhashcat, oclhashcat-lite, oclHashcat-plus, rule, the best64 challenge

Felix Hernandez and Seattle agree on new contractBy JOSE M. ROMERO
The Associated Press | February 13,2013AP Fiel Photo
Seattle pitcher Felix Hernandez reacts after throwing a perfect game against the Tampa Rays last season.PEORIA, Ariz. Felix Hernandez and Seattle reached agreement Tuesday on a contract that is expected to make the Mariners ace the highest-paid pitcher in baseball.
I think its a great thing for the Seattle Mariners, Seattle general manager Jack Zduriencik said. Its a great thing for Felix Hernandez, and looking forward to this guy being here for a very long time, obviously.
Hernandezs deal is expected to be for $175 million over seven years. Terms of the contract were not released by the team. Hernandez and Zduriencik will hold a news conference in Seattle on Wednesday afternoon where Hernandez is expected to sign the contract.
Earlier Tuesday, Zduriencik said the sides were having significant talks to try to finalize a new contract for the three-time All-Star and 2010 AL Cy Young Award winner. Zduriencik said then that a deal of that magnitude in years and dollars, takes time to work things out.
It didnt take too long. By the afternoon, Hernandezs deal was done and Seattle had its ace locked up through the 2019 season.
The new contract will encompass the final two years of his current deal that is scheduled to pay Hernandez $40.5 million in 2013 and 2014. Hell receive $134.5 million over the additional five years.
Hernandezs total dollars would top CC Sabathias original $161 million, seven-year contract with the New York Yankees and his $25 million average would surpass Zack Greinkes $24.5 million under his new contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers and tie him for the second-highest in baseball with Josh Hamilton and Ryan Howard behind Alex Rodriguez ($27.5 million). Hernandezs new money would average $26.9 million over five years.
With Hernandez off the market, Detroits Justin Verlander and the Dodgers Clayton Kershaw become the most attractive pitchers eligible for free agency after the 2014 season. Tampa Bays David Price is eligible after the 2015 season.
Hernandez, who will turn 27 on April 8, is 98-76 with a 3.22 ERA in eight seasons with the Mariners. He won a career-high 19 games in 2009 when he finished second in the Cy Young voting then won the award a year later when he went just 13-12 but had a 2.27 ERA and 232 strikeouts.
Hernandez appeared to be making another Cy Young push last year before going 0-4 in his last six starts, which left him at 13-9 with 223 strikeouts.
His career record would be even better if he didnt play with one of baseballs worst offenses. Seattle had the lowest batting average in the major leagues in each of the last three seasons. Hernandez has taken 10 losses during that span when hes given up two earned runs or less.
For his career, Hernandez has allowed two earned runs or less in 141 of 238 starts, but the team is only 99-42 in those games due to the offensive problems.MORE IN Wire SportsCHICAGO Nene started thinking about how it would all unfold in the middle of the night.
