United Outdoors
We have a network of professional guides and outfitters in the hunting, fishing, white water rafting, and hiking (outdoors) space. These outfitters are very well vetted and provide guide services, mechandise recommendations, lodging accomodations, and even refer real estate. The service can also handle booking.
Our target audience is a consumer looking to hire a professional guide or outfitter. Our consumer wants to have confidence that the company they are going to hire will take care of their needs. They are looking to fish, hunt, white water raft, hike, etc. They will want to feel confident that the outfitter is competent, knows where to go, will have the neccessary equipment, lodging, and can even refer real estate and mechandise.
Definition of a Guide / Outfitter: This is a person(s) who provides services in the outdoors for a type of activity. (hunting, fishing, canoeing, rafting, hiking, etc). They often times provide lodging services and give advice on what gear to buy/bring.
We have some existing work done to help you as a designer along, but we want a much more polished product. You can either take the existing look and clean it up or start with a fresh new approach.
We are really wanting to focus in on our Outfitter Website - the landing, marketing and information page for a specific outfitter in our network. The outfitter website should contain the following elements:
1) Overall description of the outfitter - pictures and descriptions of the outfitter
2) A Calendar that allows the user to click on date that are available for booking
3) A "Gear Store" that shows off equipment that the outfitter feels the consumer should use on the trip - i.e. "recommended gear".
4) A Section that shows off the "packages" - which are clearly defined outings that the guide takes customers on - i.e. 3 day saltwater fishing trip.
5) A section that show off real estate that is in the area for sale and for lease
6) Past trips
7) Weather reports
8) Refer a friend
9) Social media
10) Book a trip
11) Get back to the national search
12) Lodging page, pictures and desciption
Once you have the site developed, we would like 4 different "skins".
one for hunting, one for fishing, one for general outdoors, one for water.
Page 1) Outfitter Home page
-This page should focus on the outfitter themselves, who they are, what they do, where they are and pictures. It should have sections for the following: FAQs, Features of the outfitters, Lodging details, Refer a friend, email site to a friend etc.
- A key component of this main page is reference to the "Packages". A package is a tangible representation of a trip. i.e. a 3 day salt water fish. It is described in detail on an additional page below.
- Another key component is the Gear Store - which will show equipment
Page 2) Package Detail Page
- Details about the package - how long, how much, pictures, past trip reports, maps, current weather, refer a friend, message boards, sharing capability to social media
Page 3) Gear Store Page
- Gear Details - pictures price etc...
Page 4) Detail page for Real Estate
- Real Estate Details
Page 5) Outfitter Search Results Page (See exisiting page below)
-Once a person has given what and where they want to do something, this page will display the guides and outfitters who fit the criteria that the user has defined. This should allow the user to easily see not only the outfitters that fall into the criteria, but also the real estate that is for sale that falls into the same criteria, and finally also the real estate that is for lease that falls into the same criteria.

Dear Patagonia community,
The COVID-19 pandemic is taking over communities around the world at an astounding rate. While testing availability in the United States is still limited, and so the extent of the virus's spread is largely unknown, we want to do our part to protect everyone. The safety of our employees and our communities is our top priority, and we are taking responsible precautions to help stop the spread of this scary virus where we can.
We have temporarily closed our stores, offices and other operations in the United States. We have also closed stores and offices in Argentina, Chile, Japan and across Europe. Our Australia and South Korea operations will continue on a modified work schedule in stores and offices, with some stores closed depending on location. Employees who can work from home will do so. All Patagonia employees will continue to receive their regular pay during these closures.
We are working to find solutions to protect the safety of our warehouse team, and we hope to have an update about online orders in the coming weeks. We apologize that over the next two weeks there will be delays on orders and customer-service requests. We ask for your understanding and patience. We will continue to keep you updated with new developments.
We encourage our friends everywhere to take the extra precautions necessary to safeguard their health and that of others. It's everyone's responsibility to help stop the spread of this virus. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and your local health authorities are the best resources for updates and answers to questions.
Over the years, as our Patagonia community has been faced with challenges,I have always been inspired by how we emerge stronger and with an even deeper sense of purpose. We will persevere through this challenge, too.
Thank you for your business, loyalty and patience.
Rose Marcario
CEO and President

'The Girl' review: Tawdry Hitchcock tale
The Girl: Original TV film. 9 p.m. Saturday on HBO.
HBO, usually known for quality television, gets down and dirty with "The Girl," a film premiering Saturday about Alfred Hitchcock and one of his "cool blondes," Tippi Hedren, the former fashion model who found herself mauled, tortured and felt up in the backseat of a limo by the portly director.
This is such a tawdry affair that when I screened it last summer at the Television Critics Association, I kept wanting to turn it off, but didn't only because I realized that, to review it, I would have to rewatch what I'd seen so far and finish watching the film. The thought of having to endure even half of it a second time chilled me to the bone.
Lucky, lucky viewers: You will have the freedom to turn it off at any time.
The film is about how Hitchcock's wife, Alma, saw Hedren in a commercial, suggested Hitch test her for "The Birds," and then had to stand back and watch her husband put some chubby-handed moves on Hedren. When she rebuffed him, he tortured her by doing take after take of the scene in the movie where Hedren's character is attacked in an attic by a flock of angry, angry birds.
He wanted to break her, and she eventually learned that she could keep the upper hand by refusing to break, no matter what he did to her. Beauty tames the impotent beast.
Based on "Spellbound by Beauty" by Donald Spoto, the film stars Toby Jones, who did a beautiful job as Truman Capote in "Infamous," but turns Hitchcock into a caricature here. Of course, the director of "Psycho" and "Vertigo" has been gone for years, which should make it "safe" for someone to impersonate him. But that's all we get from Jones, an impersonation, and not a very good one, either. For one thing, as anyone who remembers Hitch walking into the sketch of himself to open "The Alfred Hitchcock Hour" on TV, Hitchcock was rotund at this point in his life. Jones looks like a small man in an oversize suit here. Was the budget so tight they couldn't even spring for a bigger fat suit?
He does remember to stick his lower lip out quite a bit and tries valiantly to imitate the lugubriously drawn-out way that Hitchcock spoke, but there is too much imitation and far too little convincing acting here.
The other performances are OK. Sienna Miller plays Hedren well enough. Her features aren't quite as delicate as Hedren's and she appears a bit older than Hedren was at the time of "The Birds" and her other film with Hitchcock, "Marnie." That film, by the way, was allegedly "hailed as Hitchcock's last masterpiece," according to the end credits. Really? Didn't know that. Still don't believe it. It's not an embarrassment, like "Family Plot," but "masterpiece" seems an exaggeration of its quality.
Anyway, Miller makes the character believable and even empathetic, since Hedren had to put up with Hitchcock's continuing game of handsies to put food on the table for her young daughter, Melanie.
The great Imelda Staunton is pretty much wasted as Hitchcock's wife, Alma. Of course, she makes her believable, but the film misses an opportunity to explore her character more thoroughly. She had a lot to do with Hitchcock's success, and was more than just tolerant of his fascination with women like Grace Kelly, Eva Marie Saint and Kim Novak. Did she enable and protect him only because she knew he was impotent?
The fatal flaw in the entire project isn't Gwyneth Hughes' serviceable script but Julian Jarrold's just plain creepy direction. And "creepy" not only describes the ickiness of Hitchcock's treatment of Hedren because she won't be "sexually available to me at all times," despite his impotence, it also describes the agonizing pace of the film. It creeps and creeps in a very petty pace until it puts itself out of its misery, and ours.
I don't take issue with any supposed denigration of Hitchcock's status as a filmmaker - just with how badly it's all done in the film. As for Hedren, she remains, to this day, a very classy lady who surely deserved something other than a film that merely adds belated insult to the near terminal career injury inflicted by Alfred Hitchcock.
Make sure there's enough hot water in the tank when you watch "The Girl." You'll want to take a shower when this thing is over.

Oprah Winfrey's designer pal Nate Berkus is heading to NBC.
According to the New York Times, NBC Universal and Sony Television reached a deal on Friday night to bring "The Nate Berkus Show" to a host of NBC stations across America via syndication.
Nate rose to fame in 2003, when he first became a guest on "The Oprah Winfrey Show." Oprah's Harpo production company is also behind his new program.
Rachael Ray, Dr. Oz and Dr. Phil all found success in television after their appearances on "The Oprah Winfrey Show."
But while it's good news for Nate, reports have surfaced online that this move was tied to the departing "Martha Stewart Show" – rumors that are not true.
On Monday, the New York Post reported that a deal to bring the Oprah-endorsed interior decorator to NBC, helped bring about the end of "The Martha Stewart Show," which had been syndicated by NBC Universal Domestic Television Distribution (the same division with distributes Access Hollywood). But a source close to the situation tells Access Hollywood the two moves are not in any way connected.
Martha chose to get out of the syndication business, the source said.
The domestic goddess announced last week that she is taking "The Martha Stewart Show" to the Hallmark Channel.
Martha's company, Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, will also develop original series and primetime specials for the channel, the New York Daily News reported last week.
"I have been a viewer of Hallmark productions for as long as I can remember and it's always been a dream of mine to find a partner for our television ideas and productions that would really reflect our own values of tradition and family, and of being the type of producer of information that the homemaker really needs and wants," Martha said last week. "I am thrilled with this arrangement."

Haleret necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 400 diseños de 105 diseñadores freelance.
Haleret Productions
I am a software engineer at a web startup. Haleret Productions is the brand that I publish my side projects under; I am trying to build the skills and reputation that will allow me to strike out on my own within one to two years.
You can see what I'm currently using for a logo at http://blog.haleret.com and http://labs.haleret.com
The audience for this logo is a combination of:
* High-school and university (undergraduate) students
* Their parents, teachers, professors, and administrators
The logo should feel equally at home on the title screen of a video game, business cards, and letterhead proposing a business deal. Though I am currently working towards educational video games, I do not want any overt education or video game iconography in the logo; it is possible that I will abandon one of these aspects of the company.
I need both a horizontal and a square logo. The horizontal logo will be used for web page headers, letterhead, and business cards. It should contain the text "Haleret Productions", and the word "Productions" should be typeset such that it could be replaced by another word, for different sections of the website ("Blog", for example).
The square logo should be an abbreviated version of the horizontal logo; the company name does not need to appear. It will be used for favicons, profile pictures, and the like. It needs to be simple enough to be recognizable at 16-pixel scale, but also hold up at larger resolutions.
* Horizontal logo in .EPS, black
* Horizontal logo in .EPS, two color
* Horizontal logo in .EPS, full color (if different than previous)
* Square logo in .PNG, 16x16px full color
* Square logo in .PNG, 128x128px full color
* Square logo in .EPS, black
* Square logo in .EPS, two color
* Square logo in .EPS, full color (if different than previous)
* Pantone color numbers for two-color logos
* Font names, sizes, and weights used in the logo
The design must not feature the letters "HP" together, as that is a trademark that I don't own.

Wisconsin Church Records
This entry was originally written by Dawn M. Knauft and Carol L. Maki in Red Book: American State, County, and Town Sources.
In 1661, Father René Ménard, born in Paris in 1605 and the first Jesuit sent from Canada to Wisconsin, offered the first mass in the state in 1661. Beginning in 1687, the missions became almost nonexistent in Wisconsin because of problems with the natives and the British government in control.
Father Bonduel wrote of Green Bay, 'The Catholics of this little French colony lived sometimes ten, twenty, and thirty years without seeing a priest.' Marriages and baptisms in the state were often officiated by missionary priests, resulting in large numbers of Catholic records in Wisconsin either being lost or sometimes located in repositories in Quebec Province, Canada. Tracing Catholic families in Wisconsin could require searching French-Canadian records. Some of the oldest Catholic marriage and baptism records for Wisconsin are in the 'Mackinac Register' in Collections of the State Historical Society of Wisconsin (see Background Sources for Wisconsin).
When the American flag first flew over eastern Wisconsin in 1816, the Catholic religion again took a firm hold among the French settlers in the state. European immigration and American migration brought other religious affiliations, but the heavy German, Irish, and Polish settlement in the state provided for continued numbers in the Roman Catholic denomination. Missionary clergy for other denominations in the state frequently took their records with them as they traveled from place to place. Therefore, although the search for church records in Wisconsin should begin with the local churches, helpful material may also be found in denominational archives and headquarters.
The most widely represented Protestants in Wisconsin were the Lutherans, the first faithful of that group who came from Germany and Scandinavia. Despite divisions, dissensions, and reorganizations within the Lutherans, they remain a religious force in the upper Midwest.
Smaller numbers of Methodists, Episcopalians, and Congregationalists also settled in Wisconsin. In 1834 the first Baptist Church was established in the state by Brotherton Indians on the east shore of Lake Winnebago.
The Wisconsin Historical Records Survey Project of Madison published the Directory of Churches and Religious Organizations in Wisconsin in 1941 and Guide to Church Vital Statistics Records in Wisconsin in 1942. In addition the project has numerous publications for specific denominations. Extensive microfilm collections of church records in Wisconsin are available through the FHL. The Wisconsin Historical Society and Area Research Centers also have a variety of church records including microfilm and original records.

Congress honored the "foot soldiers" of the civil rights marches from Selma, Ala., to Montgomery in March 1965 on Wednesday with the Congressional Gold Medal, with the ceremony providing a rare bipartisan moment for a place riven with partisan strife. "While we can never truly repay the Foot Soldiers … pay tribute to them by remembering to vote in every election, every election," Rep. Terri A. Sewell, D-Ala., said in her remarks. "Selma is now. There is still much work to be done." Sewell sponsored the legislation to award the medal to the men and women who marched with Rep. Martha Roby, R-Ala.
Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., who sponsored the Senate version with Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., and was born in Hybart, near Selma, reflected on the complicated history of his state in very personal terms during his remarks at the Capitol's Emancipation Hall. "Certainly I feel like I should have stepped forward more," he said.

Rhubarb SyrupSunday, June 26th, 2005
What to do with all lovely rhubarb after all different pies and jams that I've made? What about Rhubarb syrup for refreshing drinks in the summer? For children, add water to the syrup and all adults feel free to mix it with vodka instead :-)
- Rhubarb syrup
(makes about one bottle, 0,4 litre)
0.5 kg rhubarb (trimmed and well washed)
1.75 dl water
500 grams of sugar for each litre of syrup
1 tsp vanilla essenced sugar (or a small piece of a vanilla pod, as usual I didn't have any at home).
1 tsp citrid acid
Cut the rhubarb in small pieces and boil it with the water for about 10 minutes, until the rhubarb becomes really soft. Strain the mixture through a clean kitchen towel. Measure the rhubarb syrup and add sugar. In my case I got 3.75 deciliters of liquid and therefore I used 190 gram sugar ( 500/10 = 50 gram per deciliter –> 50 * 3.75 = 187. 50 grams sugar). Add citrid acid and bring everything to boil, let it simmer for 5 minutes. Skim the foam from the surface and pour the syrup into a hot and sterilised bottle. Keep the syrup in the fridge. When thirsty, pour some of the syrup in a glass and add water and ice, or mix it with something stronger….

President Barack Obama signed the JOBS act — Jumpstart Our Business Startups — into law on Thursday, which should make it easier for startups to raise capital early-stage capital.
It also relaxes some of the more strict regulations on smaller companies going public.
Here are the highlights:
- The bill contains an edited version of a crowdfunding bill that lets startups raise up to $1 million annually with small-dollar donations. Individuals worth less than $100,000 can invest 5% of their yearly income or $2,000, whichever is higher, in a startup, according to CNNMoney.
- It lifts the "general solicitation" ban, which means startups can advertise themselves and their products and build up hype while they are raising money. According to CNET, this also means you can't use this as an excuse to keep your financials secret. Some companies would say, "We can't reveal details about revenue, or user growth because it's against the law to hype our company while we're raising a round." Now they have to have a come up with a new excuse.
- Instead of registering when you have 500 investors, you can now wait until you have 2,000 investors total. Employees don't count in that number, according to CNNMoney. Facebook and Twitter started to create specialty funds that would collect money from a dozens of investors to invest. The idea was that one specialty fund only counts as one investor. If 24 people wanted to invest in Facebook, then it was 24 closer to the 500 investor limit, and thus closer to being forced to release its financial performance. If this 2,000 rule had been in effect, Facebook's IPO might have come later.
- If you make less than $1 billion annually, you can go public without following strict disclosure regulations for the first five years. You won't have to follow all the Sarbanes-Oxley disclosures at first, but this could also be risky for initial investors because they won't have the full picture.
- If you screw up, you can still be sued, even though you don't have to follow all the Sarbanes-Oxley regulations. Companies that neglect bookkeeping will face regulatory action and investor lawsuits, according to a report from Reuters.

More than 50% of all dog owners feel that their dog currently suffers from some sort of allergic reaction or food sensitivity:
Skin & Coat Conditions
Stomach Disorders
Hot Spots
Itchy paws
Ear and Eye Secretions
Holistic practitioners agree that, the common factor with most allergy-afflicted pets is a diet comprised of unnatural foods that often contain chemical additives, preservatives, and flavorings. For dogs that are currently suffering from an allergic reaction or breeds prone to one or more of these challenges, Wellness has developed "Simple Food Solutions".
The Wellness Way
"Simple Food Solutions" is the Wellness Way of approaching allergies and food sensitivities. A food worthy of the Wellness brand name, Simple Food Solutions is a natural way to provide relief and restore health, happiness, and well-being to the animals who depend on us. We've limited each formula to 1 Meat Protein + 1 Carbohydrate and have perfectly complemented this powerful base with 3 other essential supplemental ingredients... simply 5 main ingredients – that's all – we never include anything your dog doesn't need. Five ingredients of superior quality that combine to cover the complete nutritional spectrum and provide your dog a perfect, tasty, balanced meal.
1. Most OWNERS feel their dog suffers from food based allergies. In reality, only about 10% of allergies are caused by food with the majority of allergy dogs suffering from environmental allergies.
2. I think Natural Balance is the only real commercial allergy food because they have seperate lines for their different types. So duck is not being contaminated with venison, etc.

I feed our dogs orijen - their coats got so much softer on it and they gleam! We have a rat terrier who was always very gassy on other brands and had a very big dog smell for a dog only weighing 15lbs ( even a day after a bath). A week on Orijen and he stopped smelling doggy and stopped farting when he walked which was pretty much a constant.
I am feeding our pup Orijen large breed puppy, she has been doing well on it - but a vet on here is saying it is not a balanced diet. Their are so many conflicting opinions out in the world is is difficult to know what is the best thing to do. Our vet techs commented how much softer her coat was in the 4 weeks between shots.
I began feeding our adult dog Orijen 6 months ago after reading through http://www.dogfoodanalysis.com - a friend who had been feeding BARF for 6 years to her agility dogs recommended it, after she swapped her pack onto it.
I was really unhappy with Orijen. For one, my dogs had WICKED gas (gas is caused by protein..think of what happens when we eat beans ) and two, both my Buddy girl and my parents dogs had strange abnormalities on their blood work (kidney liver) that spontaneously resolved once I switched them off of the high-protein diet. I can`t prove that it was the food that caused this but it seems awfully coincidental.
Also, I personally do not like Nutro. Both of my kids were on it when I adopted them, and their poop was bright orange. WAY too much food colouring or something.
I feed Hills j d and medi cal preventive to my pups and they do really well on them (but slightly better on the j d...worth the high price tag!)

Update to Languedoc Roussillon wine blogs and twitter accounts
It's been several months since I've updated the twitter and blogger lists for Languedoc Roussillon wine producers. So I sat down and did it this morning!
Lots of winemakers have been added to the list of Tweeting winemakers:
- Chantovent – groupe Jean d'Alibert
- Sarabande – Paul Gordon, Australian in Faugeres
- Combebelle – Catherine in St Chinian
- Castan – Cazouls les Beziers
- Villa Tempora – Serge Schwartz in Pezenas
- Karantes – La Clape
- Jean Guizard – a caviste, but also a vigneron, montpellier
- Reine et Pape – vines near Carcassonne
- Begude – James Kinglake in Limoux
- Castelmaure – Small, artful corbieres cooperative
- Vincent Pousson – not strictly a wine producer? In many ways, the voice of Castelmaure.
- Outsiders – not strictly a winemaker, but a group of winemakers
A few winemaker blogs worth adding too:
- Pour le Vin, Cotes Catalanes – Michel Smith doesn't blog much about his wines, but he is a winemaker now so there you have it.
- Domaine de Cadables, Gabian – Met Bernard Isarn at the Matinale du CIVL / BUCE event in Narbonne.
- Sieur d'Arques, Limoux – A bit embarassed that I hadn't seen this one sooner. But there it is now!
Then a few blogs that fall into some grey areas:
- The Outsiders – strictly speaking, this is a blog for a group of winemakers. But the winemakers don't handle the blogging ourselves. But a lot of the text is written by us.
- Idées Liquides et Solides – I don't think Vincent Pousson is a winemaker, strictly speaking (although I might be wrong!) I know he designs the labels and aesthetics for Castelmaure and is very heavily implicated in their communication strategy. Anyway, he blogs under his own name, but I can't help thinking of it as an extension of the Castelmaure cooperative (even though it's explicitly not that).
- 20 de Corbieres – This is a website hosted by the AOC Corbieres / CIVL (an interprofessional group) and it hosts a blog that any winemaker in the Corbieres can post on. This is a brilliant idea. The Corbieres is massive and having a joint winemaker blog accessible to all its producers can generate a huge amount of quality first-person content with just a little bit of effort from each winemaker. Awesome initiative. The posts are still often CIVL-ish or AOC-ish because some of them are posted by the syndicat Corbieres, so it's not totally a winemaker blog. But it's getting very very close. Or maybe even it's better than a winemaker blog?

CLinkedList Doubly Linked List Class
Desktop-as-a-Service Designed for Any Cloud ? Nutanix Frame
It seems that over time, all programmers, engineers and other code authors have come to terms with and fully understand some of the abstract data types that come with the territory of C/C++ coding. Many prefer to use their own abstract data types, while others use some of the existing algorithms provided by the STL or elsewhere. My own list routines evolved over time and I think that they are at least worthy of submitting to the CodeGuru as I believe this particular set of Doubly Linked List routines should provide most full-blown functionality that any coder would ever need.
This source code began its early days in the "C" language before the advent of C++ ( yes, this indicates how old I am) and subsequently the STL and its associated Container classes, templates, algorithms, etc. As such, the CLinkedList class is extremely stable and if you believe that the STL is suitable, please continue to do so by all means. However, if you're looking for that extra speed that you think could make a difference in your final product, then the CLinkedList class is definitely worthwhile having a look at, because there are virtually no processing overheads when compared to the number of corresponding or appropriate STL function calls.
The source code is fully commented and there is also a Compiled Help File included with many examples. I have also included the html files for those people who prefer to use a different browser, however, Microsoft's Internet explorer 4 and above is recommended.
Below is a list of the CLinkedList class member functions, Happy Coding!
CLinkedList Member Functions:
Returns Prototype Description NULL Constructor(...) The constructor for the class. int dladd( LPVOID data ) Add ( insert ) a node into the list int dladdins( LPVOID data ) Add a node to the list with an insertion sort. int dlatmark( void ) Test to see if at a previously marked node in the list.

College Rankings
We admit it: we like to brag about ourselves. All colleges do. But it feels even better when others are saying great things about us. Here's what some of the most popular college guides (see our notes on the right) say about CSB/SJU:
According to The Princeton Review, CSB/SJU is one of the nation's best colleges for students seeking great academics, outstanding career preparation, and generous financial aid.
CSB/SJU is included in The Princeton Review's new book, Colleges That Pay You Back - The 200 Best Value Colleges and What It Takes to Get In - 2015 Edition. The book includes schools they consider to be "the nation's best for academics, affordability and career prospects."
Fiske Guide to Colleges named CSB/SJU to their 2015 Best Buys list. The list includes 44 institutions - 22 private and 22 public - as Best Buys this year. There are no other Minnesota colleges or universities on the 2015 list. "The schools' small sizes and strong sense of tradition give rise to the tight-knit community," the Fiske guide said in its review of CSB/SJU. "Together, the colleges have invested millions in facilities in recent years."
CSB/SJU have been named to the 2014-2015 Colleges of Distinction list. According to the organization, schools are selected for "providing innovative, teacher-centered undergraduate education and preparing their graduates for real-world success."
CSB and SJU have been recognized nationally by their peers in the U.S. News and World Report 2015 college rankings. Both CSB and SJU were again ranked among the top 100 liberal arts colleges in the country.
The rankings include evaluations of 249 liberal arts colleges that emphasize undergraduate education and award at least half of their degrees in the arts and sciences. Criteria for the rankings include undergraduate academic reputation, graduation and retention rates, faculty resources, student selectivity, financial resources, graduation rate performance and alumni giving. See the news release.
Kiplinger ranks CSB/SJU among their 2016 100 Best Values in Liberal Arts Colleges based on their definition of value -- a combination of academic quality and affordability.
CSB/SJU was listed in "The Princeton Review's Guide to 322 Green Colleges: 2014 Edition" as an institution of higher education that "demonstrates notable commitments to sustainability in their academic offerings, campus infrastructure, activities and career preparation."
The Office of Sustainability at CSB/SJU is committed to the effort of creating a sustainable campus by focusing on the triple bottom line: equity, economy and the environment.
Barron's Best Buys includes CSB/SJU in its group of colleges that provide a first-class education at a more reasonable price.
CSB/SJU are among the top 120 liberal arts colleges in the Washington Monthly's 2014 rankings, which rates schools based on their contribution to the public good in three broad categories: Social Mobility (recruiting and graduating low-income students), Research (producing cutting-edge scholarship and PhDs), and Service (encouraging students to give something back to their country). See the news release.
The College of Saint Benedict (CSB) was ranked No. 21 in the Peace Corps Top Colleges 2014 rankings, which recognize the top 25 volunteer-producing colleges and universities across the country.
According to Open Doors 2014, the annual report on international education published by the Institute of International Education (IIE). CSB/SJU are ranked third among undergraduate schools for participation in semester-long study abroad programs. CSB/SJU have been ranked among the top six schools nationally in this category for the past 10 years.
The Templeton Guide lists CSB/SJU among 100 colleges in the Templeton Honor Roll, which recognizes colleges that "exhibit a strong and inspiring campus-wide ethos that articulates the expectations of personal and civic responsibility in all dimensions of college life."

I just had my 45th birthday. At least I think it was my 45th.
At this point, I've lost track. And really don't care.
My theory is any birthday from this point forward beats the alternative.
If I really think about it (and I try not to), my life is probably half over.
It's probably more than half over, but I've convinced myself with advances in medicine, an occasionnal walk around the neighborhood, and only eating17 cookies instead of 21, I should live until at least 90.
Not that I want to be that old, but again it probably beats the alternative of a dirt nap.
Since the clock is ticking I should really get on with accomplishing something (anything) before it's too late.
I shouldn't waste my last few remaining good years watching TV, tweeting, mowing my yard, or even going to work.
I should be making the world a better place.
My time should be spent on charity work. Traveling. Maybe building a school for the less fortunate.
Meanwhile, I'm shuffling paperwork and worrying about mandated testing.
This doesn't seem right.
I'm on the clock. I have things I need to do.
And first on the list: Mid-life crisis.
So if you need me, I'll be driving way too fast in my brand new red convertible I can't afford sporting a mustache and wearing a tight shirt unbuttoned two buttons lower than appropriate.
Once I get this phase out of my system, I can help build a school.
Or at least mow my yard.
*Note from editor in chief…aka…tech-geek wife or whatever it is you call me on this "blog"…ummmm…it's 46 and no…just no…on the mustache and unbuttoned shirt that is…I am totally good with the brand new red convertible. Maybe I am having a mid-life crisis too…after all I turned 39 this year.

Energized Marlins ready to embark on uphill climb
Club anticipates more moves to ensure depth, with steady improvement the goal
MIAMI -- The major moves may be completed, but the Marlins will continue exploring additional personnel pieces up until the start of Spring Training.
Even then, they likely won't be done shopping.
"Certainly, you're looking at some potential non-roster invites," Marlins president David Samson said. "We're looking to bring people in to compete, because you just don't know. What we've learned over the years is you have injuries. The more depth you can have going into a camp, the better it is."
That's why Miami recently signed veteran Ty Wigginton to a Minor League contract with an invitation to Spring Training. Wigginton enters the mix at third base and first base without the guarantee of a roster spot.
Outfielder Reed Johnson was added in similar fashion Friday, inking a Minor League contract with an invitation to big league camp, bringing the Marlins' non-roster invitees total to 26.
The Marlins also are looking for perhaps another reliever or two.
It's already been a busy offseason for Miami, which made four significant free-agent signings in December -- Jarrod Saltalamacchia (catcher), Garrett Jones (first base), Rafael Furcal (second base) and Casey McGehee (third base).
A year ago, the Marlins featured one of the youngest teams in the Majors. Along with being inexperienced, they endured a number of injuries, especially early in the season.
Overall, it was a rough 2013, as Miami finished 62-100.
Along with changes on the field, the front office has also gone through some changes. Larry Beinfest was dismissed at the end of the 2013 season, and Michael Hill took over as president of baseball operations. The reshuffling included Dan Jennings being promoted to general manager.
The organization also brought in three respected talent evaluators in Mike Berger (assistant GM), Craig Weissmann (vice president of player personnel) and Jeff McAvoy (director of pro scouting).
The changes have brought renewed enthusiasm within the front office.
"What I've seen is a great process," Samson said. "They got together and talked about an idea of what they wanted to do. Then, they went out and did it.
"From my standpoint, there is a lot of excitement in the office. It feels like both the baseball side and the business side are both picking up at the same time. You're trying to get them in sync as best as possible."
Spring Training starts with pitchers and catchers workouts on Feb. 16 at Roger Dean Stadium in Jupiter, Fla. Full-squad workouts begin on Feb. 20.
Coming off the second-worst season in club history, the Marlins are seeking steady improvement.
"For me, our fans should realize that we have a team that will be fun to watch, and we should win more games than last year," Samson said. "Teams are either going up or going down, that's always been my view. Our team is on the upswing."

Congressmen: NSA Spying "Illegal", Subject to Abuse Like the Star Chamber
July 21, 2013
Compare NSA Spying to the Inquisition
McClatchy reports:
[John] Conyers, the [House Intelligence] committee's top Democrat, noted that the Fourth Amendment protects Americans from unreasonable search and seizure. "You've already violated the law as far as I am concerned," Conyers said [to the NSA executives].
The ire came from both parties. "The Star Chamber . . . in England started out . . . as very popular with the people. It allowed people to get justice that otherwise would not," said Rep. Spencer Bachus, R-Ala., referring to a court that was abolished by Parliament in 1641 over its abuses of power. "But it evolved over time into a powerful weapon for political retribution by the king."

Welcome to the new CommScope.com experience. Need help? Get Help
Réunion is an island in the Indian Ocean, close to Mauritius. Despite its modest population of just 850,000 people, the country has the same broadband supply and demand challenges as markets many times larger.
Reunicable is a leading Multi-System Operator (MSO) operating on the island and delivers a triple play offering through its local brand Zeop. The company wanted to extend its network, offering gigabit broadband speeds to all its customers. As a result, it needed world-leading solutions to stay competitive with the other providers on the island and prepare for the future. Working with ARRIS channel partner Lucas Telecom to advise on design, deploy and integrate the technology, Zeop has now implemented the new solution, anchored by the ARRIS E6000 Converged Edge Router.
The implementation was hassle-free and enables Zeop customers to freely use bandwidth-intensive applications with low latency. Zeop's services are now positioned well against Réunion's other operators, thanks to ARRIS technology, but it also has the capability to grow its revenue with new services and differentiate itself in the marketplace in years to come.

Haptic click carries TI's DRV2605 Haptic Driver for ERM and LRA vibration motors. The DRV2605 IC integrates an extensive library with over 100 haptic effects. These include audio-to-vibe features, which generate vibrations from the lower frequency range of the audio input (licensed version of TouchSense 2200 effects from Immersion). The board also carries screw terminals for connecting a motor, as well as an audio interface (3.5mm jack) for the audio-to-vibe feature.
With this board, you can be on the cutting edge of User Interface development. Bring tactile feedback back into hardware design by using this board's DRV2605 IC and an ERM or LRA motor (a motor is not included). Different patterns of vibration can fool the fingertips into feeling all kinds of sensations. A solid surface can feel like a button, for example.
With the audio-to-vibe feature, the motor vibrates in tune with the lower frequency range of an audio input.
The extensive range of effects also means that the resources of your host MCU aren't strained, although you still have the option of bypassing the library effects and directly sending a PWM signal through I2C.
Haptic click communicates with your target MCU through mikroBUS I2C (SCL, SDA), EN (in place of CS) and PWM pins.
An SMD jumper allows you to configure it for 3.3V or 5V power (in 3.3V position by default). Another SMD jumper allows you to set the audio-to-vibe feature to use the left or right audio channel (R4 or R5, respectively). This is set to R5 by default (right channel). The PWM trigger can be disabled by removing the PWM SEL jumper, thus avoiding potential interference with audio input.
Note: The picture shows the board with through-hole headers. The board now comes populated with male pin headers already soldered for your convenience. The board's user manual has yet to be updated to remove the soldering instructions.
You also can connect Click boards to many other popular platforms via these adapters:
In addition, it is royalty-free to add mikroBUS to your own designs. Visit the mikroBUS Category to see the full line of Click boards.

No meat content, some low quality and controversial fillers
This product is a veterinary diet, but is not indicated for the treatment of disease. Our comments relate solely to our opinion of the ingredients used in this product and are made on equal footing with any other product not marketed under a 'veterinary diet' label.
The main ingredient in this food is a grain. Even if of good quality, grains are not a natural foodstuff for a canine, and dog foods should be based on meat. There is no meat at all in this food, making it suited only to severely allergic individuals for whom no meat protein source can be found.
The primary ingredient in the food is rice. Rice is generally a good quality grain that is low allergenic, but as it is increasingly one of the most common ingredients in dog food the number of rice allergies is increasing and its value in products aimed at allergy sufferers is vastly diminished. Soy is the protein source in the food, but is an ingredient very commonly associated with the development of food allergies. Compared to meat, this is a low quality protein.
Beet pulp is controversial filler which appears to be used in large quantities in this food. It is a by-product, being dried residue from sugar beets which has been cleaned and extracted in the process of manufacturing sugar. It is a controversial ingredient in dog food, claimed by some manufacturers to be a good source of fibre, and derided by others as an ingredient added to slow down the transition of rancid animal fats and causing stress to kidney and liver in the process. We note that beet pulp is an ingredient that commonly causes problems for dogs, including allergies and ear infections, and prefer not to see it used in dog food. There are less controversial products around if additional fibre is required.

Craftsman label from our archive of machinery decals
Craftsman is the premier brand name for Sears, Roebuck & Co. and Simpsons-Sears / Sears Canada. The Craftsman trademark was registered by Sears on May 20, 1927. A variety of companies manufactured tools for Sears under the Craftsman name. If you want to identify the manufacturer of a Craftsman machine, follow the link under "Sears, Roebuck Number Prefixes", below. The known makers of wood-working machines, metal-working machines, engines, motors and vises are listed below.
Companion label from our archive of machinery decals
Dunlap label from our archive of machinery decals
Some machines sold by Sears Roebuck (including all machines before about 1930) did not use any of the Craftsman, Companion, or Dunlap names, but were branded simply as "Sears, Roebuck & Co." An example is a scrollsaw made by Syncro.
The list below contains the known makers of the above-mentioned products only. For a more complete list of makers of Sears products, see the section "Sears, Roebuck Number Prefixes", below.
Sears Roebuck introduced wood-working machinery in their 1926 catalog, according to one source. Here is a list of known North American-based makers of their machinery with their model-number prefixes (some companies do not have a model-number prefix because they manufactured for Sears before they introduced the prefix system):
Nowadays, the machinery sold by Sears is made outside North America and hence is outside the scope of this web site. Of course, Sears sells an enormous variety of products that are outside the scope of this site. We solely cover woodworking and metalworking machinery plus the engines and motors that powered them, and of those we only cover products made in USA, Canada and the UK.
Craftsman is the main brand name used by Sears, Roebuck & Co. for their wood-working and metal-working machinery and other products. Sears also used the Companion, Dunlap, and Fulton names. In Canada, the Craftsman name was also used by Simpsons-Sears Ltd. and then Sears Canada, Inc.
In 1886 in North Redwood, MN, a jewelry store received a shipment of watches they didn't want. The store sold them to Richard W. Sears, a local telegraph operator, who sold them to railway workers for a profit. Sears realized that there was a good market for this service, and started the R. W. Sears Watch Co. He relocated to Chicago in 1887, and found a partner, watch repairman, Alvah C. Roebuck. In 1893 the company was renamed to Sears, Roebuck and Co. Sears, Roebuck expanded rapidly in the 1890s because of their catalog sales, especially to farmers. In 1925 they opened their first retail store. By 1933 they had 400 stores.
"Historians do know the origin of the Craftsman brand name. In 1927, Sears hired Arthur Barrows to head the company's Hardware Department. Barrows knew hardware and wanted to create a brand name for Sears hardware that distinguished it from other manufacturers. Barrows liked the name Craftsman used by the Marion-Craftsman Tool Company and offered Marion-Craftsman a reported $500.00 for the rights to use the Craftsman name on Sears products.
"When Sears promoted Barrows to West Coast Manager, he hired Tom Dunlap to take over the hardware department. Dunlap immediately upgraded the quality of the tools. He threw out all the big, clumsy, cheap, cast-iron hammers and wrenches, and the soft screwdrivers that were hangovers from the days when farmers were the company's biggest customers. Dunlap recognized that America had moved into the automobile age and that Sears needed a line of high quality tools to meet this new demand.
"Tom Dunlap understood the pride a good mechanic had in their tools and how most mechanics meticulously cleaned their tools at the end of each day. He decided to improve the look of Craftsman tools by adding chrome plate to improve the finish, color, and trim on wrenches and sockets, and high impact plastic handles on screwdrivers. Dunlap's old boss, Arthur Barrows did not think it made sense to chrome plate a tool that someone would "slug the hell out of" when using, but Dunlap's persistence paid off and sales of chrome plated tools increased six times the next year. Craftsman full polish wrenches quickly became popular with mechanics because they were reliable, looked good, and were easy to clean."
Parts and manuals are more readily available for Sears products than for most makes of woodworking machinery. Still, it may take some effort to track down what you are looking for, and if your machine is especially old (pre-WWII) or obscure then you may be unsuccessful. The list below contains suggestions on where to look.
Emerson has recalled 3.7 million of their Craftsman radial arm saws made between 1958 and 1995. For saws that cannot be upgraded they will give $100 for the return of the carriage. For others they have an upgrade package for the blade guard assembly and MDS saw table & support. This is completely free, including shipping.
