As part of an ongoing effort to assess the role of technology in education, the United States Department of Education (ED) has started seeking comments from those who work closely with it. Last week ED sent out a request for opinions from the public, looking to "hear your ideas on the integration of technology in education." We at THE Journal see this as a fantastic opportunity for educators and administrators to bolster federal support for ed tech and encourage all of our readers to participate.
ED has set up an online questionnaire for those who wish to participate in the process. Specifically, the department is looking for input on the following four questions:
In light of the recently released ED-sponsored study in which education technology was shown to have little or no impact on educational outcomes, we consider input from educators, administrators, and IT professionals in education to be crucial.
The search for public comments, led by ED's Office of Educational Technology, is part of an overall effort to "explore specific actions to improve education outcomes through targeted applications of technology and to find a renewed perspective on the role of technology in education reform," according to a document on ED's website.
According to the site, "Our nation is at a turning point. We know that the world in which our education system was created--the industrial world of the 19th and early 20th centuries--no longer exists. Today we live in a technology-driven global marketplace where ideas and innovation outperform muscle and machine. In an age of digital content and global communications, we must build an education system that meets the new demands of our time. Technology can help us create schools where every child has the opportunity to succeed, while we work to close the achievement gap and address the economic and workforce needs of the future."
Let the U.S. Department of Education hear your success stories. Explain how technology improves the academic lives of your students and enriches their learning experiences. You can e-mail your responses to the questions above to firstname.lastname@example.com or fill out the questionnaire online.

Mobile phone industry to represent 2% of global GDP
Mobile phone industry to be worth $1.3 trillion by years end, represents 2% of the global GDP
Analyst firm Chetan Sharma has just published its half-yearly assessment of the state of the mobile industry for 2011. The firm has predicted that worldwide mobile revenues will reach a staggering 2-percent of the global GDP by this year, which in dollars, turns into an amazing $1.3 trillion total. A group of ten mobile operators control nearly half the revenue between them.
Other interesting tidbits are the reported revealed included an estimation of worldwide mobile data revenue, which is tipped to rise above $300 billion. Chetan Sharma also notes that the majority of mobile sales in the US are smartphones (golly!). Mobile devices are actually overtaking traditional computers in both volume of sales and revenue.
A scary fact; mobile data traffic will be 95-percent of all mobile traffic come 2015. The country with the most mobile subscribers? China. The US actually has less customers but rakes in more data revenue and overall revenue. India and China are set to hit a billion mobile subscribers each, by mid-2012 with India likely to overtake China.

4 Reasons Your Organization Should Invest in an Alumni NetworkOctober 20, 2017
Implementing a corporate alumni network for your organization allows you to keep people employed long after they have moved on to their new position. You are actively maintaining a relationship with your former employees and reaping the benefits of doing so. But this relationship doesnt just benefit the organization, this relationship is mutually beneficial as former employers can be very helpful to an alumnis career.
Here are 4 reasons that we believe every organization should invest in an alumni network.
Access to Skilled Workers
As the battle for skilled workers becomes more competitive every day, organizations need to find new, easier ways to attract employees. An alumni network can help make this happen in two ways. First, when an organization has an alumni network, they are more likely to have the possibility of hiring boomerang employees. These boomerangs are former employees that are rehired by an organization. They bring with them a wealth of outside knowledge, along with the internal knowledge they already have of the organizations processes and culture. Second, alumni are a great referral source for employment candidates. They will be able to give a great insight into the organization and will cost much less than an ad campaign or recruiter.
Knowledge Sharing
Alumni are a great source of outside intelligence. They can provide competitive information, business practices, and industry trends. When you have an alumni network, you can communicate with your former employees to gain this knowledge. You have the option of polling your alumni to receive information or opening a group forum that allows them to discuss ideas with your organization as well as other alumni. The alumni network also gives you the opportunity to learn information about your organization in an honest and unbiased way.
Obtain Client Referrals
Alumni can not only refer new clients, but also become a new client for an organization. Many organizations provide incentives to their alumni to increase the number of client referrals that they receive from the network. This practice is usually very effective as potential clients see the alumni as a more credible source than current employees.
Increased Brand Awareness
Of course, brand awareness can be bought through expensive ad campaigns, but many organizations are looking for a way to save money without decreasing their awareness. A great way to do this is with an alumni network. Alumni can create the buzz that so many organizations are attempting to create on social media and at grass-roots events. Like with client referrals, the alumni are viewed as a more credible source than your current employees because they are considered a third party. This is especially beneficial when the number of alumni is great the number of employees at an organization.

VDOT News - Staunton

STAUNTON – On September 23, 2016 the Virginia Department of Transportation posted the following weight limits on the Route 602 (East Point Road/Maryland Avenue) truss bridge over the South Fork Shenandoah River:
- Single-unit trucks with more than three axles (such as large dump trucks) are limited to 30 tons.
- Combination vehicles including tractor trailers are limited to 40 tons.
New signs have been installed to alert drivers to the weight limits. This weight posting allows most single-unit and tractor-trailer trucks with full legal loads to use the bridge, which crosses the South Fork Shenandoah River. This bridge is located near the town of Shenandoah at the Rockingham-Page county line.
This weight posting follows several inspections on the bridge. In August a regularly scheduled inspection showed that the bridge could no longer carry heavier commercial loads. To ensure motorists safety, VDOT took immediate action to limit single-unit vehicles to no more than 27 tons. Combination vehicles such as tractor trailers were limited to 34 tons. Subsequently more extensive inspections and detailed analysis have resulted in less restrictive postings for certain types of vehicles.
Future bridge work is planned, but not yet scheduled, which will eliminate the need for weight postings.
The VDOT Staunton District serves Frederick, Shenandoah, Clarke, Warren, Page, Rockingham, Augusta, Highland, Rockbridge, Alleghany and Bath counties.
Traffic alerts and traveler information can be obtained by dialing 511. Traffic alerts and traveler information also are available at 511Virginia.org. For other assistance call the VDOT Customer Service Center, available 24 hours-a-day, seven days a week. Citizens can dial 1-800-FOR- ROAD (1-800-367-7623) from anywhere in the state to report road hazards, ask transportation questions, or get information related to Virginia's roads.
The Staunton District Twitter feed is at @VaDOTStaunton. VDOT can be followed on Facebook, Flickr, Twitter and YouTube. RSS feeds are also available for statewide information. The VDOT Web page is located at www.VirginiaDOT.org.

I've spend a few hours inside Yaro Starak's Blog Mastermind membership site.
There are tons of free resources there that all have one goal: to learn how to blog for profits.
About three weeks ago in How To Make Money Blogging (Must Read!) I was raving about Yaro's free ebook called Blog Profits Blueprint.
If you haven't got that one, you can still download it for free.
Because of the high quality of that ebook and his advice that clearly shows he's very experienced, I signed up for his membership site. Here's a sneak peek of what is inside.
But even more important than that is the private forum, where you can meet the other members and make contacts, building a great network of like-minded people, learning the same valuable stuff to blog for profits.
There's this guy who will do a full WordPress package installation for only $20.00. There are others who write about computers, parenting, business, diets and lots of other niches. In general I was surprised by the friendliness of this community. We're exchanging links already. I'm sure this networking will pay out on the long term.
Tomorrow, June 28, will be the last day of the 39% discount for the membership. If you're really serious about blogging for profits, sign up now.
Otherwise you'll pay the full price, which is also a heck of a deal, considering that Yaro easily earns $5,000 a month, blogging part time.

Putting the Content Together
Daily Acts features essays form 20 different authors. I worked to compile the content together, then organize it into themed sections and chapters that made it read as a coherent book.
I also came up with the concept to make the book more interactive by including study notes and pages where the reader can take notes and reflect on the content.
Print and Digital Book Publishing
I had never published a book before this project, so learning the process was a bit of a challenge. After plenty of research, I decided to use Amazon's CreateSpace publishing tool to produce the printed version of the book. Doing this not only allowed the book to be printed affordably, but also made it possible to print on demand, which meant we never had to worry about excess inventory.
Print is far from being dead, but it was obvious that a collection of essays like this was meant to read on the go. For that reason, I created a digital version of the book as well to be compatible with devices like Kindle and iPad.
At the end of the day, both versions of Daily Acts were available for sale on Amazon, the Kindle Store, Apple's iBookstore and Barnes and Nobles' Nook store. Our audience could find the book virtually anywhere they already shopped for books online.
Marketing Plan
The final piece of the puzzle was getting the word out about the book. Foursquare already has a built in audience that receives regular communication, so I made sure to leverage that in a marketing plan.
At the same time, Foursquare runs like a very large, close family, so I wanted to make sure used that to promote the book. Rather than relying on a bunch of emails and ads, I developed a simple landing page for the book that did two things: point to where the book could be purchased and gave visitors a chance to sample the book. The sample proved to be a very effective way to give customers a taste of the book before they purchased and allowed us to collect contact information so we could follow up with them in future.

Corel Corp. says it will introduce a hybrid graphics and collaboration application for the Tablet PC, the forthcoming booklike portable-computing device based on a special version of Microsoft Windows. Corel's Grafigo software is designed to let users take advantage of the Tablet PC's pen-based input capabilities to collaborate with co-workers and partners via handwriting or sketching. The application also lets users mark up and read documents using a symbol library.
Quick adoption of the Tablet PC and related apps could give Corel a much-needed boost. Last week, the company posted a $59.1 million third-quarter loss after taking a $50.5 million charge to write down goodwill. Without the write-down, the company reported a loss of $8.6 million on revenue of $31.3 million. In the year-ago quarter, Corel, best known for its WordPerfect and CorelDraw packages, reported $34.2 million in revenue and net income of $500,000.
For quick adoption to happen, the Tablet PC must function as promised. An executive at one major PC maker, who asked not to be identified, says his company has yet to decide whether to offer the device, noting that Microsoft hasn't demonstrated a Tablet PC operating system with properly functioning handwriting technology.
Still, a number of hardware makers have committed to selling the devices when Microsoft releases the operating system in November, including Fujitsu PC Corp. and Toshiba. Other software vendors on board for the launch include Adobe Systems Inc. and SAP.

We love Founders Pointe for the community center and all of the activities they offer. Book Club and Founder's Foodie Club are our favorites! It is the ideal location, a short 10-15 minute drive to everything. There is so much beauty and history that surrounds this area. But most importantly the community involvement and neighbors are amazing. We are so happy we picked this beautiful place to live!
~ Matthew and Chrissy
|We moved in 7 months ago and couldn't be happier! Great size neighborhood, not too big but not to small, lots of wildlife, and wonderful neighbors. We are very happy here!
~ Kristin Johnson
|Immediately when we visited Founders Pointe we knew it was to be our new home! We get a real sense of family here and are very excited about meeting our new neighbors.~ Shawn and Angela McConnell
|We feel very fortunate to have discovered Founders Pointe, because we quickly realized what a great community this is going to be. Coming from the DC area, we had our reservations about the location, but after just a couple of trips down, we are now very excited about the location, especially the close proximity to the conveniences of the Peninsula and Smithfield. We can't wait to move in and watch as this development blossoms into a close knit community.~ Tim and Janeen McClellan
|Your 'tag line' says it all – "Live close to what matters most."This can mean something different to everyone but to us Founder's is desirable because of the serenity it provides. When we drive into this planned community we feel like we have arrived at a resort destination. The trees, breezes off the James and overall tranquility contribute to this vacation-like feeling. Overall, this will be the friendly, family-oriented development that we have been looking for.
|~ Jeannie and Ben Landis
|From our first visit to Founders Pointe, Tommy and I knew we found the right neighborhood. We are excited to be one of the founding residents. We knew that a new development would provide us the opportunity to meet and greet many of our new neighbors. With two daughters, Sarah (4) and Shannon (5 months) we are hoping to help them find life-time friends.~ Tom and Karen Connor
|Location, location and location is really what drew us to Founders Pointe! We contemplated a move for over a year so that we could be closer to our families, friends and workplaces, and we kept coming back to Founders Pointe. What really attracted us to Founders Pointe was its resort-style atmosphere, the preservation of the natural beauty of the area, the controlled environment (homeowner's association) and distinctive architectural designs which are unique to each home.~ Lloyd and Kristian Veale
|Since buying a home has been committing to the single largest purchase we will ever make, it was a financial decision that we would spend considerable time and energy making sure we had made the best choice possible. Simply put, we wanted the best value in housing that we could get. We found that at Founders Pointe.~ Len and Barb Ament

T S Eliot reads "Ash Wednesday" Part 1

I no longer strive to strive towards such things

If a problem arises
If you are unhappy with your lawyer or the legal costs billed to you, you have rights and options for how to address your concerns. You should always address any concerns you have as soon as you become aware of them.
Talk to your lawyer
Often the best thing to do is to speak to your lawyer about your concerns. If your lawyer knows why you are not happy, they may be able to fix the problem quickly.
Talk to the lawyer's managing partner
If you cannot speak to your lawyer, your lawyer's managing partner may be able to help you resolve your concerns.
Change lawyers
You can take your legal matter to another lawyer. You should note, however, that your current lawyer can keep your file until you have paid their bill. If you have a 'no-win no –fee' agreement and you change lawyers, you may have to pay any legal fees incurred to that time. Check your costs agreement or call us for more information.
Ask us for help
We can help you with suggestions on how you can resolve your concerns with your lawyer. We can also explain your rights and how you can make a complaint.
For further information, download our fact sheets:
- Do you have a problem with your lawyer? (321KB PDF).
- No-win No-fee costs agreements (358KB PDF)
Act quickly on complaints
If you want to make a complaint, you should act quickly. The law imposes time limits on making a complaint.
For complaints about legal costs or bills, you have:
· 30 days to dispute your costs if you have received an itemised bill, and
· 60 days to dispute your costs if you have received a lump sum bill.
Please note that your lawyer can sue you after 30 days for an unpaid bill. We cannot help you with your complaint if you've been sued.
For complaints about behaviour or quality of service, you have:
· 3 years to make a complaint.
We may be able to extend the above timeframes, but only if certain circumstances exist. Please contact our office to discuss.
You should speak to us before you write a letter of complaint or fill in a complaint form. We can often help you without the need for you to spend the time putting your concerns in writing. Please note, however, that we cannot give you legal advice.
Contact us to discuss your concerns.
What are we not able to deal with?
There are some complaints which we are not able to deal with. These include where:
- the matter is before the courts, including where your lawyer has sued you
- the complaint is about certain non-legal services provided by lawyers (147KB PDF)
- the complaint is about a licensed conveyancer (these complaints should be made to Consumer Affairs Victoria. For more information on complaints about conveyancers, see the Lawyers and conveyancing page and the Consumer Affairs Victoria website.)
- the complaint is about a Judge, Magistrate or court staff (these complaints should be made directly to the Judicial Commission of Victoria).
If we are not able to help you with your problem, we will usually be able to offer suggestions on where you can get further information or other assistance you may wish to try.

I absolutely love the backpack Jake picked out for school this year.
I also love that he is individual enough to pick out something this unique. I don't think most boys would go for this, especially at 8 years old. Truth be told, I do think the fact that this bag has the ability to carry a skateboard played a big role in his decision, but I told him he would have to wait another year before I would even consider getting him a skateboard.
Have you ever tried to shop for a backpack online?
I do much of my shopping online and it's hard to know exactly what you are going to get with a backpack or tote bags, let alone if it will meet your needs. But Burton has a solution for that problem. Whether you are shopping for a backpack, or any other kind of bag, Burton can help you find the idea solution for you with their Burton "Bag Check".
The Bag Check asks you a series of questions to help you pick out the perfect bag for your needs. The screenshots below show my son picking out his bag using the Bag Check tool. Currently the Burton Bag Check is undergoing some maintenance but it will be back live on their site very soon (9/13).
The bag Jake picked out is the Treble Yell Pack in Majestic Black Plaid.
Treble Yell Pack
Skate pack with 1,000 uses—the best deal going. External straps for a deck or other bulky gear, mesh water bottle pockets on the side for easy access to hydration and other necessities.
- 600D Polyester / 300D Polyester Dobby
- Vertical Skate Carry
- Magazine / Laptop Sleeve
- Cush Ergonomic Shoulder Harness
- Mesh Water Bottle Pockets
- 1.5 lbs [0.7 kg]
- 21L [18.5in x 12in x 7in][47cm x 31cm x 17cm]
Burton gives you the exact sizes and volume of the bag.
It has water bottle holders on the side and a front pocket to store a book. He likes to read on the bus so this gives him easy access.
The bag also fits him really well. I like how it forms around his neck and the way the strap are padding and come together just right. It seems like a great fit no matter what size you are.
He doesn't like the strap in front because he says it gets in his way, but I love it. It keeps the pack on his back where it belongs and keeps him from hurting himself.
Overall we are very happy with the Burton Treble Yell Pack. It seems durable, looks awesome and has the fits and function a fourth grader needs, with room for some toys too. Burton doesn't just have backpacks, or just bags for that matter. They have gear and apparel for children, men and women for a number of outdoor sports and uses. Check them out at Burton.com. You can purchase the Treble Yell Pack direct from Burton or online at places like Zappos.com.Note: We received the product shown to facilitate our review.

An Easy, Affordable and Effective Way of Having Purified Air In Your Home or Office.
As I have already mentioned several times (if not even more) on my website, there isn't much that can be done regarding the air quality outdoors. But you can try Honeywell HHT-011 Air Purifier for the best possible result indoors.
Since I`m suffering from asthma and mild allergies, which sometimes tend to kick off, especially when I'm exposed to dust mite, debris or pollen it is crucial for me to have a fresh and clean air in my home. The obvious solution for that was to get an air purifier. At first, I was confused by the wide range of products. However, there's one which sparked my interest, and that's the Honeywell HHT-011 Compact Air Purifier with Permanent HEPA Filter.
The HEPA-type Filter
Sometimes people fail to understand the procedures of HEPA-type filter. I've come across a lot of negative reviews on the Honeywell HHT-011 air purifier regarding its HEPA-type filter. I think that people must know about the meaning of the word 'permanent filter' regarding HEPA-type filter. The term 'permanent filter' doesn't mean that you should forget about its existence and just leave it alone.
The permanent filter means you don't have to replace the filter every time after it collects enough dust and particles. You just need to wash it, let it dry, put it back into the purifier and use it again. Like that, you can use it for years rather than months. The permanent HEPA-type filter in the Honeywell HHT-011 can filter almost 99% of smoke, pollen, mold spores, dust and pet dander. Another useful feature of this model is a light indicator, which tells you when it`s time to clean the HEPA filter. No more guessing about when to change the filter.
Levels of Noise
You can control the sound by choosing between three different options: low, medium and high. The sound is very quiet when set on low which makes it ideal for use in a bedroom or when you're relaxing. Even the medium setting is pretty tolerable. In fact, you'll forget about it being there when using it during the working time, and it's suitable for your office.
It does get a bit louder when set on high. The high-performance level is meant to for cleaning the air quick, for example, if you have a bad smell or a lot of dust. My suggestion to you would be to use the first two levels when you're at home and doing routine cleaning. Set it on high only when you need to clean the air fast.
Compact Design
The compact design and control over sound make it suitable for nearly every room. This one won`t take up a lot of space in your room compared to some larger units out there. With the dimensions of 9.40 by 5.8 by 12.9 inches, you won't have to re-arrange the furniture to place it.
Further Review Information
Another great think about Honeywell HHT-011 is that you this air purifier is upgradable with ionizer which adds a level of filtration. The Honeywell HHT-011 is so affordable that you can purchase few of them for each room if there is a need. Also, Honeywell HHT-011 Compact Air is backed up by a 3-year warranty.
The Conclusion
The Honeywell HHT-011 Compact Air Purifier with Permanent HEPA-type filter is one of the most affordable air purifiers on the market right now. It`s ability to collect air pollution thoroughly is quite impressive, and HEPA-type filter will save you money in long-term.
On top of that, it works very quietly and takes up little space. If Honeywell HHT-011 Compact Air Purifier catches your mind, check it`s the best price on Amazon where you can find great discounts and free shipping.

Dry Eyes? Don't Overlook One Autoimmune Disorder
Date: January 20, 2011
If you're middle-aged or older and have significant trouble with dry eyes, you might be suffering from Sjögren's syndrome, an autoimmune disorder that affects 4 million Americans, 90 percent of them women.
Dry eyes, of course, can be due to any number of issues—from wind exposure to menopause—but if you're also experiencing dry mouth, fatigue and joint pain or other seemingly unrelated symptoms, these problems may be part of a systemic illness.
Left untreated, Sjögren's can lead to serious complications, including kidney disease and lymphoma, says Esen Akpek, M.D., associate director of Johns Hopkins' Sjögren's Syndrome Center, which brings together a multidisciplinary team of rheumatologists, neurologists, otolaryngologists, dentists and gynecologists to diagnose and treat the condition.
The good news about Sjögren's, Akpek says, "is that if it's treated early, you do get better."

This week, Neogen's Jim Topper presented at the SQF Information Day during this year's Food Safety Consortium. The event, a gathering for food industry professionals from every link of the supply chain, is an opportunity to share the advantages of third-party certifications in food safety and quality.
In his presentation, Topper shared material from Neogen's "Best Practices for Implementing an Effective ATP Sanitation Verification Program" handbook, aiming to give simple, real-world best practices for getting the best results from any sanitation monitoring program.
Some of the topics covered include:
- Validation, verification and revalidation
- Cleaning to a validated standard

Behind Microsoft's Docs.com problem
Microsoft is taking a lot of heat over their Docs.com and the leaking of private information. Redmond isn't entirely to blame, though they could have handled the issue much, much better. Office Watch explains the problem and what to do about it.
Private information on docs.com like credit card details, health records were and are still available to anyone searching the Microsoft site.
Docs.com is a document sharing site that's quite different from OneDrive but the difference wasn't well explained.
It's meant as a place to release documents to a wide range of people. Documents on docs.com can be searched within docs.com and also global search engines like Google and Bing.
Docs.com defaults to public access to any documents you save there.
Microsoft's fault lies in not clearly showing people that the docs.com documents are publicly visible. 'softies will be surprised to hear that because it seems to Redmond staff that the visibility of docs.com files is clear. But it's not, especially after the document is saved. Here's the standard view of a document saved to docs.com as seen today.
There's NOTHING to show the access or visibility of the document. Not even an obscure icon.
Secrets and tips for the Windows 10 November 2019 update
A detailed and independent look at Windows 10, especially for Microsoft Office.
Fully up-to-date with coverage of the November 2019 major update of Windows 10.
This 1,000 pages, 40 chapter book shows you important features and details for Windows 10 users.
Adding fuel to the fire
Microsoft's response to the problem has been remarkably poor and incomplete. It's considered a PR problem not an actual problem that needs fixing.
Microsoft seems to feel that customers are entirely to blame and the company has no responsibility (and legally they don't, because their terms and conditions protect Microsoft, not customers).
The first reaction was to remove the search box from the docs.com web site. That did nothing to fix the issue but merely served as a stopgap measure and PR talking point.
The documents were still visible via search engines including Microsoft's own Bing service.
The docs.com search box has now returned. Microsoft thinks that the problem will magically go away with a few PR platitudes.
What should have been done:
- A better, clearer, indication that a document is publicly shared. As you can see, there's no obvious indication that a document is publicly visible.
- Email all docs.com users suggesting they check the visibility of all documents on the site. Either limit or remove any documents that should not be public.

With Yu Darvish in New York for a Hail Mary second opinion on his elbow and the Rangers holding their breath, opportunity knocks.
It's an irrationally optimistic view on undoubtedly devastating news in Spring Training, but Darvish's likely departure will open a spot for an unlikely starter.
Welcome to the rotation, Chi Chi Gonzalez?
Alex "Chi Chi" Gonzalez grabbed the early lead for Yu's spot Monday by throwing three scoreless innings against the A's. He allowed two hits and struck out three in his 58-pitch inning. And, oh yeah, he stayed healthy.
Without Darvish, the Rangers' No. 1 starter is Derek Holland, followed by Yovani Gallardo, Colby Lewis, then maybe Ross Detwiler and … Gonzalez?
I know. Yikes.
Also vying for the 5th spot with Chi Chi are Nick Tepesch, Nick Martinez and Anthony Ranaudo. While Tepesch and Martinez pitched for Texas last season and the acquired Ranaudo in an off-season trade with the Red Sox, Gonzalez is an intriguing prospect.
At 6 foot 2 and with a college career at Oral Roberts, the 23-year-old went 7-4 with a 2.71 ERA in Frisco in 2014. He's got a mean cutter, a love for sushi and the nickname bestowed upon him by his grandfather.
The Rangers drafted him in the 1st round in 2013 and have planned for him to be a starter in Arlington some day.
That day, ready or not, may not be far off.
A native Texan who was born in Duncanville and graduated from UT-Arlington, Richie Whitt has been a mainstay in the Metroplex media since 1986. He's held prominent roles on all media platforms including newspaper (Fort Worth Star-Telegram, Dallas Observer), radio (105.3 The Fan) and TV (co-host on TXA 21 and numerous guest appearances, including NBC 5). He currently lives in McKinney with his wife, Sybil, and two very spoiled dogs.

Glaciers in British Columbia cover over 25,000 km2, but few studies detail glacier response to climate change, and the impacts of these changes on water resources; still fewer effectively disseminate their results to BC residents. Stakeholders requiring information about current and projected glacier decline include BC Hydro (energy generation), the natural resource sector (mineral, oil and gas exploration and development), BC Parks, farmers and municipalities (freshwater availability). Since BC is blessed with thousands of glaciers, nearly all residents of the Province can identify with a 'local' glacier, but many do not appreciate the complex interplay between climate, glacier response, and changes in water availability. Matt's research provides a novel and demonstrable way to communicate the science and implications of climate change. His work focuses on reconstructing past glacier extent and monitoring current glacier fluctuations, with the ultimate goal of discerning climatic forcing of glacier change and implications for water resources in western Canada. As visible, independent indicators of climate change - and as iconic natural features - glaciers and glacier change can play a vital role in knowledge translation of climate change. With the support of PICS, Matt is also working towards new methods of communicating climate change via glaciers and human interaction with them.
For more information visit GlacierChange.org: Our ever-changing glaciers: Imagery, science, and art.
Matt holds a BSc in earth science from Montana State University and an MA in geography from the University of Colorado at Boulder (CU). While at CU, he also completed a graduate certificate in environment, policy and society. His MA work focused on glacier change in southeast Alaska and relations to climate variability. Matt is originally from Juneau, Alaska where he grew up with numerous 'local' glaciers. His passion for ice was solidified through participation in the Juneau Icefield Research Program, which brings groups of students to the Juneau Icefield - from Juneau to Atlin, BC - for two months each summer. While Matt's work focuses on glacier and climate change he is constantly endeavoring to broaden his work to include science communication, environmental policy, and field-based education. Matt is based at UNBC's regional campus in Terrace where he teaches in the new BSc - integrated program.

Stephen Glass hopes his spectacular 25-yard free-kick against Burnley will put him in the shop window when he is dumped by Watford at the end of the season.
The 26-year-old former Newcastle winger added to Tommy Smith's opener at Vicarage Road to seal an FA Cup semi-final berth for Watford with a 2-0 win.
But Glass will be the first high-profile victim of cost-cutting at Watford in the summer, when manager Ray Lewington cannot afford to offer him a new contract, and he doubts his goal will force the club into a rethink.
He said: "At the moment it's not an option for them to change their minds. I knew a few weeks ago but it was just a case of being professional and carrying on. If the manager picks you, you have to do your best. The future's in your own hands.
"The manager's got a tight budget and we've got a lot of midfield players, so it's understandable.
"I'd go anywhere to keep playing football and hopefully the goal won't have done my prospects any harm. I'm not the only one in that position, a lot of the lads are in the same boat.
"It's a case of living with reality, but the Cup Final would be a great last game, wouldn't it?"
Watford's best run in the cup for 16 years has come in a season of turmoil, with players and staff agreeing to take a 12pc wage cut to help keep the club out of financial difficulties.
Victorious Hornets boss Ray Lewington is hoping to use some of the money from this cup success to pay back what is owed, but he still has nine players sweating on new contracts when their current deals expire this summer, and he will be forced to let some go.
He said: "Financially the cup is massive for us. The club have said that any un-budgeted money will go back to the people who made the sacrifice and the money we're making is un-budgeted money.
"It's important they are repaid because of they hadn't have done it, we probably wouldn't be here today. The players wouldn't have been paid and it certainly would have been a difficult time. But everyone has pulled together and the spirit was fantastic." Lewington was also full of praise for Glass, signed by predecessor Gianluca Vialli but playing his best football under his new coach.
"Stephen's known for some time but his response speaks volumes. If I had unlimited money I would keep all."

The Municipal District of Lesser Slave River is an expansive municipality located in the heart of northern Alberta. Spanning over ten thousand square kilometers, Lesser Slave River is home to hundreds of prosperous farms, beautiful hamlets, and a number of thriving oil and gas, forestry and agriculture industries.
Rdeca Group was given the ambitious task of branding a client who was still reeling from one of the worst natural disasters in Canadian history: the northern Alberta wildfires of May 2011. Our recommendation was to evolve and realign a brand that, while flawed and fragmented, had achieved iconic status as a result of the tragedy. The underlying purpose of this strategy was to empower the client with the tools to engage, educate and safeguard its constituents.
At the core of the communications strategy is a website that engages locals in an authentic two-way conversation; that promotes the unique region to travelers and career-seekers; and that accurately and respectfully recounts the wildfires. The new brand was evolved in tandem with an overarching strategic communications initiative. An exceedingly helpful yet hands-off client enabled us to execute these deliverables within an extremely compressed time frame.

Sam Cares About Our Local Community
At Sam Aguiar Injury Lawyers, we launched Sam Cares to help create a positive impact on the lives of people throughout Kentucky, Indiana, and Tennessee. Since 2011, Sam Aguiar Injury Lawyers has donated more than half a million dollars and thousands of volunteer hours to charitable causes and organizations throughout Louisville and Kentucky communities.
We're Not Afraid of
a Little Cold Water
Our team took part in the ALS Challenge—also known as the Ice Bucket Challenge—to promote awareness and support for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Also known as Lou Gehrig's disease, ALS is a progressive disease that affects the spinal cord, as well as nerves in the brain. Scientists are still unsure of the exact cause of ALS and there is currently no cure, but thanks in part to increased awareness and donations (including those inspired by the Ice Bucket Challenge), researchers now know more about this disease than ever before.
We were also proud to recently participate in the Polar Plunge for Special Olympics. Our team braved near-freezing temps in order to help individuals with intellectual disabilities take part in athletic events, year-round training, and competitions as part of the Kentucky Special Olympics. All proceeds from the Polar Plunge go directly toward helping local Kentuckians live better, healthier, and happier lives.
Whether we're participating in the Special Olympics Kentucky Polar Plunge or in the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, We're always excited to give back for great causes!
Join In On The Fun!See Some Past Events We've Been Involved in Over the Years
if you have any suggestions on how our Sam Cares program can help strengthen your community, please contact us with your ideas.
