The US Department of Education categorizes educational programs offered at an institution by CIP code (Classification of Instructional Program codes as defined by the Department of Education) and degree level (Associates, Bachelors, etc…). For that reason, all educational programs with the same CIP Code and degree level are combined to calculate program costs. While these combined programs are similar, variations in tuition and fees can exist due to differences in location and/or program structure.
The costs shown are calculated using the average costs of all programs offered by the campus within the same CIP Code and degree type, for students that complete the program within the normal period of time.

For that reason, all similar educational programs for the given Institution1, with the same CIP Code and degree level are combined when determining On Time Completion Rates.
On-Time Completion Rates are calculated using the gainful employment formula in order to comply with U.S. Department of Education requirements. The statistics track all students who graduated from their program between 7/1/2012 and 6/30/2013 and have reached completion within the program's designed timeframe. For example, for a two-year program, the on-time completion rate would include all graduated students who started two years prior.
Academic Calendar breaks that occur during continuous enrollment are considered when determining if a student graduated within the designed timeframe; however, summer breaks typically incorporated into the normal timeframe for more traditional schools are not included in this determination. The instructional months displayed represent the highest amount of all versions of the program found at the institution; therefore, depending on the specific program version or campus location, the instructional months may be a shorter amount of time. Each student is measured against the designed timeframe of their specific program version when determining if they graduated "on-time" or not; as a result, this determination may not be made against the displayed instructional months should a shorter or discontinued timeframe be applicable to a student's specific program version. One instructional month represents four instructional weeks.

A first-time student has no prior postsecondary experience before enrolling at this campus. This means that a student who attended another college, university or other postsecondary school before enrolling at this school is not included in the calculation. The rate also does not include students initially enrolled part-time, taking individual classes (as compared to enrolling in a full program), or only auditing classes. These rates are calculated using the Student Right-to-Know formula in order to comply with U.S. Department of Education requirements. The statistics track all first-time, full-time and certificate or degree-seeking undergraduate students who began school during the date range and have completed within 150% of the normal program length. For example, for a two-year program, the graduation rate would include students who had completed within three years of beginning the program.

COLUMBUS, Ga. – With a jumper at the 13:09 mark, Jaymee Carnes eclipsed the 1,000 career points mark en route to a 30-point performance Thursday night to lead three other Saints in double figures, but it was not enough as the University of North Georgia women's basketball team fell 92-88 on the road to Columbus State University in a pivotal Peach Belt Conference West Division matchup.
The loss drops the Saints to 7-11 and 5-6 in the PBC while Columbus State, the team that entered Thursday night just ahead of North Georgia for the all-important fourth spot in the division standings improves to 11-8 and 7-5 with their third win in a row.
After opening the game shooting a scorching 66% (21-32) from the field, the Saints ended the game shooting 59% (36-61) from the field. Neither team could do much wrong in the opening stanza as far as shooting went. Both teams ended the half shooting identical 66% from the field.
Carnes led all scorers with her 30-point performance. It was a season-high for the junior from Gainesville as she went 13-21 from the field and finished with seven rebounds, seven assists and four blocks.
Sophomore guard Stephanie Huffman was the next closest Saint with 18 points off a 7-10 performance that saw her go 2-3 from three-point range. Mimi Hill ended the game with 16 points and eight rebounds while freshman Keeley Chester ended the 40-minute contest with 11 points.
The Cougars finished the game shooting 51.6% (33-64) from the field, including going 55% (11-20) from three-point range with four of those three-pointers coming from Kiersten Reid. One of those four treys was the game-winner and that drew a foul on the play, but Reid was unable to convert the four-point play. She ended the game with 15 points off a 4-8 performance.
Chatil Bradford, who entered the game averaging 10.0 points per game, led the scoring drive for the Cougars with 23 points off a 10-12 performance and seven rebounds.
The Saints led by as many as 10 (46-36) with 5:19 remaining in the first half when Jasmine Manning hit two free throws, but the Cougars worked hard to tie things up with a 15-5 run in the closing five minutes to close the gap.
Hill scored the first points of the second half with a layup, but the Cougars answered with eight unanswered points to retake the lead.
The two remained close for the entire second half, swapping points and the lead before Hill made a layup with 3:20 to give the Saints their largest lead of the half, five (82-77). But the Cougars proved to have some fight left in them as they out-scored North Georgia 15-6 in the final minutes to win the 92-88 contest.
North Georgia will next travel to Montevallo, Ala. where they will participate in a rematch with the University of Montevallo on Saturday, Feb. 2. The last time the two teams met, the Falcons escaped Memorial Hall Gymnasium with a 60-58 win. Tipoff for Saturday is schedule for 2:30 p.m. Eastern standard time.

The Resurgence of Dwyane Wade
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed or follow us on Facebook. Thanks for visiting!
Since he exploded on the world stage at the Olympics this past summer, expectations for the return of Dwyane Wade's top-five-in-the-NBA game ratcheted up. 21 games into the season later, Wade is not only meeting these high expectations, he's exceeding them.
After scoring 41 points to help beat the Charlotte Bobcats last night, Wade pushed his league-leading scoring average up to 29.5 points a game. Not only that, but he's shooting almost 50 percent in the process (.499). Most importantly, Wade's return to greatness is helping lift the Miami Heat off the cellar floor of the Eastern Conference. The Heat are currently 12-9, 3 wins away from equaling last season's win total.

Special Offer
Cosmo: Let's start from the inside out. What should you have going on under your clothes to give you a sleek, smooth look?
Charla: Underwear is 50% of the battle. Obviously, a shaper will suck you in, but so many traditional ones are a turn-off because they're constricting and ugly. One of my greatest finds has been these "Skinny Britches" by Spanx. They're amazing, super lightweight bike shorts that come in a variety of really cute colors. You can wear one pair or even layer a few for extra compression.
Cosmo: Everyone worries about VPL, but in your book you take on the dreaded VBB (visible bra band) that super gross ridge that forms when your bra is too tight and digs into your back. What's a way to eliminate it?
Charla: Get a professional bra fitting! So many women end up being a size larger in the cup and a size smaller in the band, and the ill fit is the culprit of the VBB that I talk about. Another little trick if you're smaller chested, you can get away with wearing a shaping tank top (as long as there's lycra in it) in lieu of a bra.
Cosmo: Let's talk about actual clothes. You say it's important to make your body look balanced. How can someone who is top-heavy do this? And what about someone who's bottom-heavy?
Charla: You should always make sure that everything on the larger half of your body is clean and simple. So someone who is top-heavy should opt for a fitted v-neck sweater or cardigan in a pretty but subtle color (i.e. no screaming red or neon). A bottom-heavy type should go for something like a dark pencil skirt. Then you can play with volume on the other half pair the v-neck sweater with a pair of wide-legged jeans, or the slim skirt with a more voluminous top.
Cosmo: A great pair of jeans is a staple every girl should have in her closet, but with so many options out there it's hard to figure out what to go for. What are the details women should consider when trying on denim?
Charla: A few denim rules that I think apply to every body: no huge logos on the back pockets, no super light washed denim, and keep the details (like rips and embellishment) to the bare minimum. While I'm a big proponent of trying everything on before you buy, in general dark denim with a little bit of stretch and a medium rise are the most flattering color, fabric, and fit for any woman.

The number of Inspector Montalbano fans will continue to grow with this ingenious new novel featuring the earthy and urbane Sicilian detective. Half the retirees in Vig`ata have invested their savings with a financial wizard who has disappeared, along with their money. As Montalbano investigates this labyrinthine financial scam, he finds himself at a serious disadvantage: a hostile superior has shut him out of the case, hes on the outs with his lover Livia, and his cherished Sicily is turning so ruthless and vulgar that Montalbano wonders if any part of it is worth saving. Drenched with atmosphere, crackling with wit, The Smell of the Night is Camilleri at his most addictive.Camilleri is as crafty and charming a writer as his protagonist is an investigator.

Photo from April of 2009,
Last year I joined Snojoke, but too late to go up skiing with them.
I did play softball with some of the guys from there.
So this Winter, first time up, went to Crystal for some skiing.
I have just a little time left before I go into surgery, and then I don't know how long the recovery will be.
The snow was pretty good on the third of January, lift lines were light, and I got quite a few runs in quickly.
Next time I should call some of the guys I played softball with first.
This time, first time out, I just wanted to see if the skis remembered what they were supposed to do.
So Jim, Jim, Glen and Craig, if you see this, give me a call and let me know what days you will be going up this January.
I did take one run up High Cambell and did the traverse and then down.
Snow was good there too, and as long as you were pointing them down, it was good. I'm liking the Heads in the soft stuff too.
They carve well on the hard stuff too.
Head Chip Super Shape
Maybe next year I will be doing some of the ski trips they have.

Mitt Romney was paid $36,000 today. And yesterday and the day before and every day this year, including Saturdays and Sundays. Adding up to somewhere in the vicinity of $13,400,000 that he was paid last year and he didn't have a job. He didn't have to lift a finger.
Yet, he paid a lower tax rate than any of his gardeners, chauffeurs or cooks or horse grooms at any of his six or so mansions. And he refuses to release any more back tax returns, probably because he made even more money and paid no income taxes.
Yet, this man has the gall to denigrate and disparage 47 percent of the American public as parasites not worthy of his time. He can't stand the idea that anyone receiving social security, disability payments or living on ramen noodles while getting an education would pay a lower rate than he.
As George Soros, himself a billionaire, observed not long ago, "If there is class warfare being waged in America, my side is winning."
It is time to tell Mr. Romney and all of the true parasites, job exporters and de-regulators of this country that their time is over, that they have extracted the last ounce of sweat and blood from hardworking Americans and that it is time for them to pay back much more of the huge fortunes and vast incomes that inherited wealth or the money from all our taxes helped them to become entitled to.
To Mr. Romney and most of his class, employees are a necessary evil, to be disposed of whenever possible. Do you really think Mr. Romney cares if you have a job? He's laughing at you, all the way to the bank.

Night terrors rare, but disturbing, for adultsFARGO – In the middle of the night, Erin Fallgatter tore her bed apart in a panic.

By: Anna G. Larson, INFORUM
FARGO – In the middle of the night, Erin Fallgatter tore her bed apart in a panic.
Her heart raced, and she was convinced her newborn son was tangled in the sheets, suffocating. Her husband, Jeff, told her that baby Wyatt was in his crib, and she needed to go back to sleep.
"Sometimes, his firm voice would help me to pull back into reality, although it would take minutes for my heart to stop racing enough to relax again," Erin says. "Most of the time, I had to continue my search of the bedding in order to calm down about it."
The cycle would repeat four or five times some nights, while newborn Wyatt slept peacefully in his nursery.
"It's alarming and incredibly confusing to feel such a heightened panic brought on out of a deep sleep for no reason other than your own brain working overtime," Erin says.
She learned that the intense nighttime episodes she experienced were night terrors, or sleep terrors. About 2.2 percent of adults have night terrors, according to the American Academy of Sleep Medicine. They're more common in children – 1 to 6.5 percent of children experience them.
Night terrors in adults haven't been studied as extensively as night terrors in children, says sleep specialist Dr. Seema Khosla of the North Dakota Center for Sleep. Sleep medicine is a young but important field of study, she says.
"Your sleep is so crucial to your overall well-being," Khosla says.
Nightmare or night terror?
Night terrors are characterized by their high intensity, and people are usually inconsolable during the episodes. Nightmares are very common in adults while night terrors are rare, Khosla says.
"Nightmares and night terrors fall under that same category of unpleasant things, things we don't want to happen at night," she says.
During a night terror, people typically act startled, and their heart is usually racing and pupils dilated. Their breathing is fast, and they appear frightened and might scream, says Dr. Samy Karaz of Sanford Health.
Because night terrors happen during non-REM sleep, or sleep that occurs in the first part of the night, people typically don't remember them in the morning, he says.
It's common for children to have night terrors because they get more non-REM sleep. Night terrors are more serious in adults since they can be violent, the Sleep Center's Khosla says.
She recalls a patient who had such severe night terrors that she had to warn her neighbors in her apartment so they wouldn't think she was being harmed.
Besides being violent, the bed partner or loved one might blame themselves for causing the terrors, or the person who has the night terrors might feel sad if they end up sleeping separately from their mate, she says. It can also lead to anxiety.
"That whole psychosocial side does have to be addressed," Khosla says. "It's uncomfortable to talk about sometimes, but I don't think we're doing anyone any favors by avoiding it either."
Erin's episodes subsided as she became used to being a mom, although they do occur from time to time. She avoids bad news involving children and anything else that might provoke her to feel stressed.
Treating night terrors is trial and error, Khosla says. They're usually not treated with medications since many are addictive, like benzodiazepines.
Instead, Khosla encourages patients to de-stress and maintain a regular sleep schedule and calm sleep environment since sleep deprivation is a major cause of night terrors.
She's also sent patients to behavioral therapists and psychiatrists to work through any issues that might be disturbing their sleep cycle.
Avoiding smoking three or four hours before bed, ideally all together, can also help with night terrors, as can avoiding alcohol and caffeine, Sanford's Karaz says.
Sleep studies are only necessary if there's a possible underlying condition like sleep apnea, both physicians say.
A clinical evaluation that involves speaking with the patient and bed partner or family is usually sufficient for figuring out the sleep disorder, Karaz says.
Since people with night terrors don't usually remember their episodes, people around them are essential to figuring out a diagnosis, he says.
If a bed partner or someone else in a home witnesses a night terror, it's important to make sure the person and onlooker are both safe, Khosla says.
She recommends directing the person experiencing the night terror back to bed in a soothing, comforting voice without trying to wake them. Trying to wake or hold them can exacerbate or prolong the night terror.
Both physicians say it's important to seek help if night terrors disrupt daily life.
"I think sometimes the most important thing is to hear the whole story – physicians taking time to listen," Khosla says. "If you don't keep your eyes open for it, you're never going to diagnose it."

California's most notorious killers
Image 1 of 18
Timothy Joseph McGhee( Wally Skalij / Los Angeles Times / April 12, 2014 )
Timothy Joseph McGhee: A northeast Los Angeles gang leader described by police as a "monster" who boasted in rap lyrics about his hatred of police and his love of killing. McGhee, a member of the Toonerville gang, was sentenced to death in January 2009 for the murder of two rival gang members and the girlfriend of a third. A jury in 2007 convicted McGhee of murder in the gang-related shootings of three people between 1997 and 2001. Jurors also found McGhee guilty of the attempted murder of four other people, including two LAPD officers caught in a pre-dawn ambush in Atwater Village as they chased three other Toonerville gang members.

In-depth focus on the latest business news both nationally and internationally, the global economy, and wider events linked to the financial markets. Marketplace, the only national daily business news program originating from the West Coast, is noted for its timely, relevant and accessible coverage of business, economics and personal finance.
Composer ID:
Tuesday, April 15, 2014 2:46pmAs consumer prices increase more than expected, we look at what's becoming more expensive (food, rents) and why – as well as asking who this will impact the most. Plus, tomorrow the College Board will release "extensive sample items" for the newly designed SAT. The revised test obviously affects students, who will begin taking it in the spring of 2016. But how about the multi-billion dollar test prep industry? We take a look at how they're preparing for the changes. Also, Russia's Finance Minister is warning that his country's economy could see zero growth this year because of the backlash over Russia's annexation of Crimea. Russia has seen capital flight of $63 billion in the first 3 months of this year, as people rushed to convert rubles into other currencies. The news comes as the European Union threatens further sanctions against Russia. Then, Yahoo's earnings look good today. The company has been on an upswing this year, in the wake of a spate of talent hires by CEO Marissa Mayer. But closer examination of Yahoo's numbers paint a different picture. The company's stake in Chinese IPO hopeful Alibaba is worth about $33 billion, given the valuation placed on Alibabs right now. Yahoo's market cap right now? $33.8 billion. Which begs the question, without Alibaba, what is Yahoo really worth?
Monday, April 14, 2014 4:10pmSaved by the spring - retail sales increased 1.1 per cent in March, the biggest jump since September 2012. This might be pent-up demand from a difficult winter, but what's the story behind the figures? When both the job market and wages are still weak, Mitchell Hartman looks at where the money's coming from. Also, a new report from the U.N.'s climate panel says we've got 15 years to turn things around or potentially really suffer the effects of global warming in the future. This is the starkest call for action yet, but the report also illustrates why calls for this kind of action are so hard for people to process. Plus, Maxwell House coffee is getting a makeover today, but it's only the most recent Kraft vintage brand to get one. Kraft's going through its older brands, some of the most famous in consumer goods, and refreshing them for modern times.
Friday, April 11, 2014 2:01pmThe President has picked his budget adviser Sylvia Burwell to replace HHS Secretary Kathleen Sibelius. She's the second director of the Office of Management and Budget to ascend to a higher position in the administration with Jacob Lew as her predecessor). What is it about the OMB – one of the wonkiest spots in a wonky town – that makes it such a good proving ground? Plus: Walmart is challenging Whole Foods with a new line of organic foods with sharply lower prices. But this isn't meat or produce, its processed foods like spaghetti sauce and pasta. And therein lies the challenge: ain't much organic wheat grown anywhere. Where you going to find commodity volumes of organic commodity grains, tomatoes and other ingredients? Also, Amazon just bought comiXology for Kindle – but you might be forgiven for thinking that comic geeks would revolt against anything that doesn't come wrapped in an eminently swappable plastic sheath. Krissy takes a look at the business of making comics pay these days.
Thursday, April 10, 2014 3:07pmKathleen Sebelius, the secretary of Health and Human Services, will resign after serving five years in the position and presiding over the rollout of the Affordable Care Act. President Obama accepted Sebelius's resignation earlier in the week, and on Friday will nominate Sylvia Mathews Burwell, the director of the Office of Management and Budget, to replace her, according to White House officials. Plus, the search for the Malaysian jet goes on, and at great expense. This is less about the 777 that disappeared, and more about all the other 777s that are still flying: investigators need to protect all the other people that are traveling in these jets every day. That means they need to know what went wrong. And they'll do and spend whatever it takes to find out. And after a four-year absence, Greece is back in the international sovereign debt market.
Wednesday, April 9, 2014 2:59pmGoldman Sachs considers shutting down its private trading exchange as publicity about high-speed trading and talk of SEC investigations draw attention to the bank. The bank will consider how it profits/benefits from the private exchange versus the cost of scrutiny and negative attention. Are the calculations similar to those in its decision to sell its commodities trading business? Also, the break-up of a graphic design duo has resulted in a lawsuit of $20 million – over fonts. Tobias Frere-Jones and Jonathan Hoefler worked together for 15 years to create some of the most famous and ubiquitous fonts around– used by GQ, Martha Stewart, the New York Jets, and Saturday Night Live. They won awards for their typefaces - before the relationship turned sour. Who knew there was so much money in fonts? Plus: Not to worry, Comcast tells Congress. It needs to merge with Time Warner Cable, so it will have the strength to compete with the real heavyweights in broadband and content delivery – companies like Google and Apple. We examine the argument.

Syrian violence contributed to a sharp rise in the number of journalists killed for their work in 2012, as did a series of murders in Somalia. The dead include a record proportion of journalists who worked online. A CPJ special report
Syrian violence contributed to a sharp rise in the number of journalists killed for their work in 2012, as did a series of murders in Somalia. The dead include a record proportion of journalists who worked online. A CPJ special report
New York, December 7, 2012--CPJ condemns a series of attacks on journalists covering protests in Cairo over the proposed constitution and calls on authorities to investigate the assaults and bring an immediate end to the anti-press violence. At least five journalists were struck by rubber bullets, leaving one in critical condition, and several others were assaulted, according to news reports.
New York, December 4, 2012--The proposed Egyptian constitution would impose several new restrictions on press freedom--including the creation of a new government regulator and new governmental authority to shut media outlets--while doing nothing to halt the criminal prosecution of journalists, which was a hallmark of the Hosni Mubarak regime, the Committee to Protect Journalists said today. CPJ supports the Egyptian Journalists Syndicate's call to President Mohamed Morsi to withdraw the proposal from the referendum scheduled for December 15.
New York, October 25, 2012--An Egyptian appellate court should strike down the criminal defamation conviction and prison term handed down this week against a television commentator, the Committee to Protect Journalists said today.
Two Egyptian journalists were assaulted on September 14, 2012, in two separate episodes while covering protests against an anti-Islam film, according to news reports.
New York, August 23, 2012--Egyptian leader Mohamed Morsi banned pre-trial detention of journalists charged with press-related offenses today in a decree issued just hours after a Cairo criminal court jailed an editor pending trial on charges of insulting the president, according to news reports.
New York, August 16, 2012--President Mohamed Morsi's government and allies are pushing back against critical news coverage, suppressing critical journalists and state-run newspapers, putting a journalist on trial, and attacking three journalists on the street, according to news reports.
The first test for the future of press freedom in Egypt since President Mohamed Morsi took office is not going well.
The story sounds hideously like another--one of a chaotic, predatory attack on a woman journalist in Cairo's Tahrir Square. Clothes torn from her body, hundreds of men surging to grab her breasts and claw at her. A woman wondering, "Maybe this is how I go, how I die." It has been almost a year and a half since CBS correspondent and CPJ board member Lara Logan endured an attack like this. Now, an independent journalist and student named Natasha Smith reports that it has happened to her.
Cairo, June 18, 2012--The Committee to Protect Journalists condemns the legal action taken against an Egyptian journalist who was fined for defamation, and calls on the appeals court to reverse the ruling. In an unrelated incident, authorities briefly detained on Saturday an Egyptian journalist covering the run-off to the presidential election.
1 Journalist killed while covering a protest and shot by a ruling party supporter.

by Anne Tyler; Knopf, 2012; 198 pages; $24.95
If there's an appropriate way to read this beautiful new novel from Pulitzer Prize-winning author Anne Tyler, it is surely on a quiet weekend morning that stretches into an expansive, lazy afternoon. "The Beginner's Goodbye" is a small book, barely 200 pages, but it needs to be read unrushed. Tyler has the uncanny ability to understand human shortcomings and to approach them with a commendable generosity of spirit that must be savored.
As in "Noah's Compass," her last novel, Tyler's focus is on a man who is having trouble finding his way. This time out, it is Aaron Woolcott, a 36-year-old widower. Aaron stammers whenever he tries to make himself known. Owing to a childhood accident, he is also crippled in his right arm and leg and finds himself defensively overcompensating for that weakness as well.
He meets Dorothy Rosales, an outspoken and practical physician, when he is 24. She is eight years his senior and, unlike friends and family, immediately refuses to coddle him. They quickly marry, and it is a match made in heaven.
Some years later, a freak home accident causes Dorothy's death right after a silly argument. The devastated Aaron retreats to his family business — a vanity press that has also enjoyed a modicum of success with its "Beginner's" series, "something on the order of the Dummies books, but without the cheerleader tone of voice — more dignified." Aaron also finds himself fleeing the multitude of small pressures of his damaged house and moving back to the house he grew up in, a house still occupied by his sister, Nandina.
Aaron feels that without his admittedly ordinary marriage, he simply doesn't exist. Very movingly he remarks about life in general: "That was one of the worst things about losing your wife, I found: your wife is the very person you want to discuss it all with." Then, from the afterlife, Dorothy begins to appear to Aaron at unexpected times to talk him through his grief.
What "The Beginner's Goodbye" charts so very tenderly is Aaron's beginning again. It isn't easy at all. People are too kind with casseroles and condolences. Husbands avoid mentioning their wives; wives stop by to "see" if he is "all right." Through all of this, Aaron comes to understand how ill-prepared any of us will be for starting over. With the subtle help of Gil Bryan, the contractor who rebuilds the damaged house, Aaron finds a way to do the same for his life.
With quiet wisdom and unassuming humor, Anne Tyler's small book examines large truths. "The Beginner's Goodbye" reminds us of the need to cherish even that which is unremarkable around us, to treasure even the imperfections of those we love: "The smart thing to do is, pay attention while they're living."

In the previous article you learned how to identify the Rackspace Cloud Nameservers, and that you will have to update them with your current domain registrar in order to transfer an existing domain to be served from your new Cloud Server. For many of our customers, that is all the information they will need to get going. For those of you who have never been through this process before we will go into more detail on how DNS works, and how to transfer and test your domain. Here are the answers to some basic questions about transferring your domain to Rackspace.
Rackspace IS a provider of world-class Cloud Hosting services on demand backed by our commitment to Fanatical Support. What we are NOT is a Domain Registrar like Namecheap, Dreamhost, or GoDaddy. The only time that Rackspace acts as a Domain Registrar is if you are using our Cloud Sites service. So in order to host a domain from your Cloud Server, you will need to have already registered it at a domain registrar, and then transfer it to Rackspace.
In the Domain Name (DNS) System, the nameserver is part of the process that translates a human readable domain (like rackspace.com) into the corresponding IP address. This information is reported up a hierarchical chain of nameservers that store the mappings in a directory. When you are requesting to load a website by entering the domain name into the address bar of your browser, this high level directory is queried and responds with the next server down the chain that knows where to find the IP address matching the domain name you requested. Now that you want your domain to be hosted on a Rackspace Cloud Server, you will need to update the nameservers so that the DNS system knows where to locate the new IP address that is serving your domain.
For Rackspace Cloud services, the nameservers you need to use are:
dns1.stabletransit.com & dns2.stabletransit.com
If you are also using our dedicated hosting services, you may have been previously instructed to use the following nameservers:
ns.rackspace.com & ns2.rackspace.com
Please continue to use these Name Servers for your dedicated services, but you will use the 'stabletransit' Name Servers above for any domain hosted from a Rackspace Cloud Server.
When you first register a domain, you are usually assigned the nameservers belonging to the domain registrar, unless you specify otherwise. First you will need to log into your account with your Domain Registrar and locate the section where the Name Servers are stored. Next you will change those to dns1.stabletransit.com and dns2.stablestransit.com to initiate the transfer of the domain. Some registrars require a few extra steps in order to unlock the domain, but this will vary on a case-by-case basis.
Your next step, if you haven't already done so, is to create corresponding DNS records for your domain in the Rackspace Cloud Control Panel. You can follow the instructions in the next article to learn how to create DNS records through the ControlPanel.
DNS propagation is the time it takes for the updated information that you provided to your registrar (the new name servers for your domain) to be communicated through the hierarchical DNS system. In general, DNS propagation of new name server information should take no longer than 24 - 48 hours.
There are a number of ways you can test your DNS. You can use the 'dig' command from a Linux machine to view the DNS records associated with your domain. This will also confirm for you that DNS propagation has completed. There are also several websites with a browser interface that will allow you to run the 'dig' command against your domain.
Once DNS propagation has completed and you can read the A records pointing to your Cloud Server through 'dig', you can test the functionality of your website through a browser like any of your other site visitors. If you are still unable to view your website, the most likely culprit would be a misconfiguration of your firewall settings or of your web applications. To learn more about opening ports on your Cloud Server to allow normal HTTP traffic on port 80, you can read our guide on basic firewall configuration.

"List price" is the suggested retail price provided to us by our vendors. We make no representation that a substantial number of these products have been sold or offered for sale at the list price. Actual retail prices in your area may be substantially different. Since we sell products on a national basis, it is not possible to know if our merchandise is sold at list price in any particular location or at any particular time. "You Save" reflects the difference between our price and the vendor provided list price shown on our sites. Since the list price may be different than the actual retail prices in your area, you may not actually realize a savings of this amount.
Manufacturers sometimes ask that retailers not display a price if it drops below a certain amount. The "Click here to see Lowest Price" message indicates that the price of the item is so low that the manufacturer requested that it not be advertised (that is, displayed). In a brick-and-mortar store, you would probably have to ask a salesperson what the price of the product is. At eCOST, by clicking on "Click here to see Lowest Price" you are essentially asking to see the price, at which point we show it to you.

Kris Cagle
(Artists -
Atomic Robo pinup (Red5), The Living Corpse (DE), Tesseract - CCP Comics
Kris Cagle is a freelance artist living in Fort Worth, Texas with his wife Stephanie and son Nolan. After pursuing music for a period of time into his mid-twenties, Kris came back to his original love of comic-art. Todd McFarlane, Jim Lee, Mark Silvestri heavily influenced me growing up, and countless other artists in the field that led him to drawing with the same high-energy/hyper detail styles of his influences. Kris has done various design projects ranging from concept design for apartment development to promotional work for Jose Qeurvo/Texas Rangers Baseball; constantly turning down projects to pursue comics, where his true passion is. We should see a lot of his work in the future. He has already popped up in Red5 comics providing promotional work for Atomic Robo: The Deadly Art of Science and now Dynamite Entertainments The Living Corpse: Exhumed. Kris is wrapping up the first issue of the Creator owned project Tesseract with writer Rob Bass, a comic about inter-dimensional warfare between characters of original creation as well as some of the greatest minds in history. Fans of S.H.I.E.L.D, Green Lantern, The Authority, X-Men should get a kick out of this book. I am trying to bring back the team book that I fell in love with as a kid -Kris Cagle

French taste
During the French revolution lots of atrocities took place in and around France.
During the height of the reign of Robespierre and his other henchmen the river Seine
turned to red from the blood of all its victims.
He was a bloodthirsty savage, and it was only just that he ended up the same way like his victims.
This is a picture of what happened to the royal pen of peacocks during the initial days
of carnage.

Strunz not surprised by Magath exit
Former Wolfsburg general manager Thomas Strunz understands coach Feliz Magath's departure from his former club, although the timing of the announcement caught him by surprise.
Magath's resignation was accepted by the Bundesliga side today, just 48 hours before they face Fortuna Dusseldorf in the Bundesliga and five days after a 2-0 defeat at home to Freiburg - a fourth consecutive defeat.
"The timing is surprising," said Strunz on Liga Total television. "However, the outcome is not. After considering all of the factors, this is an understandable decision."
Strunz was also critical of Magath's work in his second spell at the club.
Having led them to their one and only Bundesliga title in 2009, a lot was expected of Magath when he returned after leaving Schalke, whom he had led to second.
However, despite heavy investment in new players and a revolution of the playing staff, the club find themselves in a worse situation than when Magath arrived in March 2011.
"It is incredible how much money has been invested, and all they have got to show for it is a place at the bottom of the table," added Strunz.
"70million euros (£56.25m) have been spent on 27 new players over the past 18 months. That is incredible and you just have to shake your head.
"13 of these players are not even there anymore and of the other 14, none have really made a name for themselves."
Magath left Wolfsburg's training ground without comment today, but he took to Facebook to say that he is only stepping out of the limelight, but will continue to be a presence in German football.
"You have always been a stimulating, complimentary and also critical community," he wrote in an address to his fans.
"I am very grateful for your support and backing. There will certainly not be a lack of exciting issues because that is what life in football is all about.
"I will remain in contact with you."
Magath's contact to Dr Francisco Garcia Sanz will also remain strong, with the Wolfsburg chairman insisting it was Magath's decision to leave.
"He reacted as a professional when such an analysis is made," he told Sport1.de. "I repeat once again, we did not fire Mr Magath."
Appointing Magath for a second term was Dr Garcia Sanz's decision and perhaps one he will live to regret.
"I don't know," he said. "We are always cleverer in hindsight. It is too early to talk about that."
Dr Garcia Sanz will now consider what the best option will be for the club's future, having chosen a popular one among the fans by appointing Lorenz-Gunther Kostner as caretaker coach.
Only time will tell whether Kostner will get to keep the job on a permanent basis, having already deputised for four months at the end of the 2009/10 campaign before Steve McClaren was appointed, but he can stake a claim for the job with only the second win of the campaign at Dusseldorf on Saturday.
