It's been over a week since the last rumor about a potential director for Star Wars made the rounds and to make up for lost time, there are two more names allegedly in the running. Directors Jon Favreau (Iron Man, Cowboys & Aliens) and David Fincher (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, The Social Network) are apparently seeking out the job, or so says Deadline.
They say: "I've also heard Jon Favreau is panting after this job, and even that David Fincher, who apparently worked for Lucas's ILM in a menial job as a teen, might be game for one of these new films. Unfortunately, we are getting nothing out of Lucas Land on what they call speculation. I broke a story recently that Lawrence Kasdan and Simon Kinberg will write future Star Wars installments, most likely the second and third installments of the new trilogy, I'd heard. Lucas, through Disney, denied every speck of this, but I ran it anyway. They won't comment or clarify these things because they want to announce it themselves on their own Twitter or website or whatever they've got."
Favreau previously expressed interest in the job but hasn't outright said he's gunning for it, and Fincher's involvement might be simply wishful thinking due to his involvement with Return of the Jedi as an assistant camera man.
Disney is said to be planning on taking the 'Marvel' approach to Star Wars and releasing a new film every 2-3 years with some that focus on different aspects of the Universe, but they're remaining tight-lipped about all of this for now. Star Wars: Episode VII, meanwhile, will move forward with a screenplay by Michael Arndt for a release in 2015.

What can NASA do with a space telescope that's in good working order but whose funding has run out? Instead of letting it become just another piece of space junk, the space agency wants to give it away.
In an unprecedented move for an operational spacecraft, NASA is negotiating to turn operation of the Galaxy Evolution Explorer over to the California Institute of Technology, Spaceflight Now reports.
The satellite, known as GALEX, has been providing data on the ultraviolet properties of nearby galaxies since 2003 and, among other discoveries, helped confirm the existence of dark energy, according to Popular Science.

SETI's search for alien life is back in business
Space junk problem: Is a solar-sail ship the answer?
It already has lasted far longer than its expected, 29-month lifecycle, and except for one detector that shorted out in 2009, it's working fine. But NASA's Senior Review Panel, which in 2006 had voted to continue the mission, in 2010 decided that other operations had higher priorities. GALEX was put into standby mode Feb. 7, though data archiving and analysis will continue into the summer of 2012, Spaceflight Now reported.
NASA is hoping to reach a deal by March 31 with CalTech, which has led GALEX' research.
The transfer of operational control would be made under the Stevenson-Wydler Technology Innovation Act, which allows for government agencies to donate computer and research equipment to educational and nonprofit institutions. A lot of PCs have been given to schools under the act's provisions, but never anything floating in space.
The question is whether CalTech wants to assume control of GALEX. Although it wouldn't have to pay for the satellite — Stevenson-Wydler prohibits agencies from accepting money for equipment — manpower and money are involved in maintaining its operation.
GALEX, which has a 19.7-inch telescope and to date has been managed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, most recently has been surveying magellanic clouds, the galactic plane and the stars also being studied by NASA's Kepler space telescope for signs of plants, according to Spaceflight Now.
During its nine years in space, GALEX has produced an unprecedented archive of information on how the basic structures of the universe evolve, according to CalTech. Its data has been used to catalog millions of galaxies spanning 10 billion years.
Among its other mission highlights, GALEX has explored "teenage galaxies," discovered a gigantic comet-like tail behind a speeding star, found rings of new stars around old galaxies and witnessed a black hole devouring a star, Universe Today reports.
CalTech officials are expected to give NASA an answer by March 31. If they choose not to continue the mission, GALEX will join other spent satellites and spacecraft in the great junkyard in the sky.

This is not unprecedented. Several years ago NOAA gave Latin America access to i.e. lent, one of its older, surplus, in orbit Geostationary (GOES)weather satellites. We should expect to see more of this as agencies find it increasingly hard to justify continued funding to maintain older satellites (and associated radars) that no longer contribute to the agencies primary performance goals.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords says she's "furious" after senators on Wednesday blocked legislation that would expand background checks for gun buyers.
Giffords is accusing senators who opposed new gun regulations of "cowardice," saying their decisions are "based on political fear and on cold calculations about the money of special interests like the National Rifle Association."
The former Arizona congresswoman's remarks were published on The New York Times' op-ed page Wednesday. She has become a vocal gun control supporter since she was shot in the head at a rally near Tucson two years ago.
The proposal to expand background checks fell short of the 60 votes needed to advance in the Senate. An attempt to ban assault-style rifles failed as well, along with a ban on high-capacity ammunition magazines.

Major titles still top Woods' wish list
THOUSAND OAKS, California (AFP) –
Tiger Woods, buoyed by a return to form in 2012, is hoping 2013 will yield the one thing that in his opinion makes a season great: a major golf title.
"Any time you get a chance to be part of history and put your name on the biggest trophies in our sport, it's a great year," said Woods, who owns 14 major titles but hasn't triumphed in one of the game's four premier events since 2008.
Woods spoke Tuesday at Sherwood Country Club, where he's preparing to defend his title in the World Challenge invitational that he hosts for the benefit of his charitable foundation.
He birdied the final two holes to defeat compatriot Zach Johnson by one stroke here last year and end a global victory drought, and then went on to win three PGA Tour titles in 2012.
"I'm very excited because last year at this point in time I was still not quite where I wanted to be physically," Woods said.
"This year has been fantastic in that regard. I've felt good. I've played a full schedule for the first time in a very long time, and I'm just very pleased with what I've done overall with my game."
With various injuries behind him and the swing changes he has painstakingly implemented with coach Sean Foley apparently dialed in, Woods said all aspects of his game have come around.
"At the outset of the year I didn't really putt well. Towards the end of the year I really started putting well. My short game has really come around … I am becoming more consistent."
He won his 72nd PGA Tour title at the Arnold Palmer Invitational in March, then won the Memorial and the AT&T National.
The only real hiccup was his withdrawal from Doral during the final round with a sore Achilles tendon.
In 2013 it's clear his focus will be on resuming his pursuit of Jack Nicklaus's record of 18 major titles.
"I know how it feels when you win a major championship, and it feels incredible," he said. "It lasts with you, and that's something that I would like to have happen again.
"That's something I haven't done since '08, so it's something I can do next year," he said of nabbing another major.
"Winning a major championship just takes it to a whole new level."
One thing isn't in Woods's plans — taking up membership on the European Tour.
Woods has never done so, even back when the European circuit required members to play just 11 events rather than the current 13.
That would include the four majors, World Golf Championships events, and now when it rolls around, the Ryder Cup.
European Tour chief George O'Grady, in an interview with Gulfnews.com, noted that it would be "quite doable for Tiger to join the European Tour".
Playing as a member of both the European and US Tours would allow Woods to emulate the feat first achieved by Luke Donald, and matched by Rory McIlroy this year, of winning the money title on both tours.
But Woods said the schedule burden wasn't worth it.
"I'll make it real simple — I'm not going to play the European Tour next year," Woods said.
"It's a bit much for me still," Woods added. "I enjoy playing around the world, and I still always will. But I am going to play this (US) tour."

Garry Rayno's State House Dome: The election's over, but contests remainGARRY RAYNO
November 10. 2012 11:52PM
The smoke has cleared and you can watch television again without suffering through a barrage of political attack ads.
Democrats in New Hampshire held on to the governor's office and reclaimed control of the House and the Executive Council, not to mention the two congressional seats.
Although Democratic state Senate candidates collectively garnered more votes than did Republicans, the GOP holds the majority, 13-11 (pending results of two recounts; see below). The leadership of the Senate will not change much as Senate President Peter Bragdon has already won the endorsement of his caucus and Minority Leader Sylvia Larsen of hers.
There will be significant changes, however, as 10 of the 24 Senate members will be freshmen, although three Democrats have been there before: Martha Fuller Clark of Portsmouth, Bette Lasky of Nashua and Peggy Gilmour of Hollis.
With the change from 19-5 to 13-11, there will be more Democrats on committees and more Democratic chairmen and vice chairmen of committees, all to be worked out between now and the opening of the Legislature in January.
Larsen said, "I haven't had an opportunity to meet with current Republican leaders, but I would assume they will look at increased chairmanships. There has to be a better balance in the committees."
The current Senate committees generally have only one Democrat among six members.
"I will push to recognize the skills of some of our members who have a high level of experience and a high level of talent," Larsen said.
The House is not as set as the Senate.
Former House Speaker Terie Norelli of Portsmouth is in a heated battle with Nashua Rep. David Campbell to be the Democrats' nominee to lead the House.
Campbell claims he has more incumbent Democrats supporting him than does Norelli, but there are more than 120 new Democrats in the House, and Norelli invested her time and energy, not to mention financial support through the House Democratic Political Action Committee, in many of them.
Conventional wisdom has it that Norelli will win the caucus, but the race for speaker may not stop there.
On the Republican side, House Speaker William O'Brien wants no part of being minority leader. That opens the door for others, including former Speaker Gene Chandler of Bartlett, current Deputy Speaker Pam Tucker of Greenland and Rep. Laurie Sanborn of Bedford, who resigned from her seat in Henniker to move to Bedford, where she also won.
At the end of the week, Tucker put out a statement noting she had the support of more than 70 Republican House members.
"I am humbled and honored to receive the support of so many of my fellow representatives from all over the state in such a short period of time," said Tucker.
This week will tell who the players are, as Republicans caucus on Thursday and Democrats on Saturday.
If the Democrats come out of their caucus as a united front, it will be a quiet few weeks until Organization Day Dec. 5, but if they don't, it will be a very interesting few weeks.

LET THE RECOUNTS BEGIN: Recounts begin Tuesday and there are 23 of them.
There are two Senate races. In District 9, Democrat Lee Nyquist was edged out by Republican Andy Sanborn; and in District 16, incumbent David Boutin, the Republican, was ahead of Democrat Kathleen Kelley.
In the District 9 race, nearly 31,000 ballots from 14 communities will be recounted. This recount begins Tuesday at 8 a.m. in the Archives Building.
In the District 16 race, nearly 27,000 ballots from four towns and three Manchester wards are involved. This one will begin Nov. 20 at 9 a.m. in Legislative Office Building, Room 301.
The other lengthy recount will be for the Cheshire County Sheriff's race between Democrat Ed Rivera and Republican Earl D. Nelson. Rivera won by 27 votes. Nearly 38,000 ballots will have to be recounted.

The defendants in Caldwell v. Roseville Joint Union High School District et alia won a victory in court on September 7, 2007, when Judge Frank C. Damrell Jr. granted their motion for a summary judgment against the plaintiff, Larry Caldwell. In 2003 and 2004, Caldwell, a lawyer and parent in the Sacramento suburb of Roseville, California, sought to persuade the RJUHSD Board of Trustees to adopt his "Quality Science Education" Policy, which would have called for teaching "the scientific strengths and weaknesses" of evolution.
D. James Kennedy, the megachurch pastor and religious broadcaster, died on September 5, 2007, at the age of 76 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, according to the Washington Post's obituary (September 5, 2007). Born in 1930 in Augusta, Georgia, and reared mainly in Chicago, he was managing a dancing school in Tampa when he experienced a religious conversion, leading him to earn a divinity degree from Columbia Theological Seminary in Decatur, Georgia.
After receiving criticism for describing Answers in Genesis's recently opened Creation Museum in northern Kentucky as aiming to "counter evolutionary natural history museums that turn countless minds against Christ and Scripture," the Northern Kentucky Convention and Visitors Bureau quietly revised its website, as the Cincinnati Enquirer reports [Link broken] (September 1, 2007).
Answers in Genesis's Creation Museum continues to spark controversy. Noting that the Northern Kentucky Convention and Visitors Bureau's website describes [Link broken] the museum as aiming to "counter evolutionary natural history museums that turn countless minds against Christ and Scripture," Daniel Phelps, the president of the Kentucky Paleontological Society, protested the inflammatory description. His protests were ignored by the agency until the story was broken in the media.

International passenger traffic at Los Angeles International Airport hit a record high of 17.9 million people in 2013, breaking the previous record of 17.5 million set in 2005, airport officials said Friday.
The jump in international passenger traffic, which is up 4.1 percent from 2012's 17.2 million, "is attributable to an improving worldwide economy, especially in the Asia-Pacific region, and to a modest strengthening of the Southern California economy,'' said Gina Marie Lindsey, executive director of Los Angeles World Airports, the agency that owns and operates LAX, LA/Ontario International Airport and Van Nuys Airport.
"In addition, U.S. and overseas airlines are starting or expanding international service at LAX as a result of our ongoing, multibillion-dollar LAX Modernization Program, which is complemented by major airlines investing hundreds of millions of dollars to renovate their respective domestic terminals,'' she said.
Total passenger volume in 2013 was up 4.7 percent to 66.7 million from the previous year's 63.7 million people, with international travelers representing 26.7 percent, while domestic passenger volume rose 4.9 percent, from 46.5 million in 2012 to 48.8 million.
The number of aircraft landing and takeoffs in 2013 grew 1.6 percent, from 605,480 to 614,917.
Total air cargo volume fell in 2013, down 1.5 percent to 1.9 million tons.

People magazine is reporting that Kristin Cavallari of The Hills has a new man in her life, and no it's not Justin Bobby.
According to People, Kristin is now dating Tal Cooperman, who just happens to be another ex of fellow castmate, Audrina Patridge. Tal and Audrina dated last summer.
"It's brand new. They're having a lot of fun enjoying getting to know each other better," says a source of Cavallari's relationship with Tal. "It's not for the show. They hit it off and have been hanging out off-camera."
Kristin and Tal allegedly enjoyed a date night Thursday in Los Angeles, during which they were spotted sharing a sushi dinner at Nobu and kissing at West Hollywood hotspot Voyeur. "They were making out on one of the club's VIP stages after midnight," says a clubgoer. "They were all over each other."
It's probably best for the human race that these folks keep their stds germs amongst their circle, as they all seem to date the same people. I haven't been watching the Hills that much this season, but I have become a fan of The City, which seems slightly less fake than the Hills. That Olivia is quite the character, and definitely makes the show interesting.

By sheer coincidence, today is the official publication date for my Politically Incorrect Guide to the Presidents, From Wilson to Obama, and Larry P. Arnn's The Founders' Key: The Divine and Natural Connection Between the Declaration and the Constitution and What We Risk by Losing It, which fits since we were in graduate school together and tormented each other at the Claremont Institute back in the 1980s. The two books are essentially about the same thing: the constitutional design of our republic. They ought to be paired as a matched set on Amazon, but you'll just have to order them separately I'm afraid.
For any Power Line readers in DC, the Heritage Foundation is hosting me for a lunch book forum today (Attorney General Ed Meese presiding); walk-ins are welcome, but not to worry if you can't make it. C-SPAN BookTV is turning up, though I suspect just to tape and broadcast later.
I'm also going to be on Bill Bennett's radio show tomorrow morning at 7:05 am eastern, which I know is a wee bit early for anyone not on the eastern seaboard.

Obama's indecision: In NH, only Ayotte urges action
"They were ready to go in June to grab the guy [Foley] and they weren't permitted," a former U.S. intelligence officer told the Washington bureau chief for The Times of London.
Another defense source said, "The White House constantly goes back and forth on these things. These people are a bunch of academics who endlessly analyse stuff and ordering up another deep-thinking paper but can't decide what to order for lunch."
The implication was crystal clear: James Foley might be alive today had President Obama authorized the mission to rescue him when it was first presented to him. The group of pigs that murdered Foley presented Obama with another decision last week. How long will he fail to act on this one?
Over the weekend, Sen. Kelly Ayotte urged the President to bomb the terror group immediately. Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, who sits on the Senate Foreign Relations and Armed Services Committees, was silent, as were Reps. Carol Shea-Porter (who sits on Armed Services) and Annie Kuster.
Why is Kelly Ayotte the only member of New Hampshire's congressional delegation to urge a swift and forceful action to weaken this growing terror threat after the murder of a New Hampshire constituent? Is the power of partisanship strong enough to silence Shaheen, Shea-Porter and Kuster on this huge matter of national security? If that is the reason, how shameful.

Hyperaldosteronism case report: Reviving a senior cat's verve
Mar 01, 2012
A 13-year-old 10.3-lb (4.68-kg) spayed female domestic shorthaired cat was presented to the VCA West Los Angeles Animal Hospital for progressive and unresolving lethargy over the course of two to three days and one episode of vomiting. The owner reported that the cat recently showed an inability or unwillingness to jump onto elevated surfaces and described signs consistent with a plantigrade hindlimb stance that was episodic in nature. The cat was otherwise healthy with no preexisting conditions and was receiving no medications. It lived in a household as the sole pet and was indoor-only, and there was no known exposure to or ingestion of toxins.
Physical examination
On physical examination, the cat was quiet, alert, and responsive, with a body condition score of 5/9. The cat's vital signs were normal (temperature = 101.4 F [38.6 C]; heart rate = 140 beats/min; respiratory rate = 30 breaths/min), and the cat appeared to be mildly dehydrated with tacky mucous membranes. A grade II/VI left systolic parasternal heart murmur was detected on thoracic auscultation. Musculoskeletal examination revealed cervical ventroflexion and generalized weakness.Clinicopathologic tests
Initial treatment
The cat's blood pressure was measured by using a Doppler monitor every six hours for 24 hours. A mean systolic value, calculated from at least three consecutive measurements, was reported. Over 24 hours, the cat's blood pressure ranged from a mean systolic of 180 to 195 mm Hg. Retinal examination revealed bilateral tortuous vessels and mild focal hemorrhage of the right eye. The cat was started on amlodipine (0.625 mg orally every 24 hours).
After analysis of the commercial laboratory data (Table B), hyperthyroidism appeared to be unlikely, so abdominal ultrasonography was recommended in addition to measurement of plasma aldosterone concentration.

Mueller continues to lead Germany's attack, scores 9th goal in 9 career World Cup games
RECIFE, Brazil – With Thomas Mueller in a perfect position to pounce on a rebound, American cheers for yet another spectacular Tim Howard save didn't last long.
The U.S. goalkeeper was unable to cut down the angle after diving to punch away a deflected ball, and Mueller did what he does so well — calmly drive a first-time shot inside the far post for his ninth goal in nine career World Cup games.
The 24-year-old Mueller isn't flashy, and didn't generate the pre-tournament talk of Brazil's Neymar or Portugal's Cristiano Ronaldo. But the Bayern Munich star is tied with Neymar with four goals in Brazil after scoring a tournament-high five in South Africa.
Ronaldo, meanwhile, is going home, as have other high-profile stars such as England's Wayne Rooney and Italy's Mario Balotelli.

Abby says it's incredible to be home; mom tells TODAY daughter did not run away
TODAY Video: Mother of teen missing 9 months says 'She did not run away'
Gorham man arrested for kidnapping Abigail
CONWAY – In her first direct communication with the public since returning home, Abigail Hernandez issued a joint statement with her mother this morning, saying it is "an incredible feeling" to be home.
"I wish that I could personally thank everyone who looked for me," said Hernandez, 15, who returned home a week ago Sunday night after disappearing for nine months.
"My gratitude is beyond words. It's an incredible feeling to be home and I believe in my heart that your hopes and prayers played a major role in my release. Thank you all for the welcome home," she said.
Abigail's mother, Zenya Hernandez, who on Monday morning told the Today Show that Abigail is not pregnant and did not run away from home, added that her daughter's health is the top concern.
"We are extremely and exceptionally straight out busy. Our number one priority is to address Abby's health and medical concerns. Our next, and equally important priority is to fully cooperate with the investigators," Zenya Hernandez said.
"In the very few moments that we have away from the healthcare and law enforcement professionals, we try to spend some "normal" and happy time together.
"We literally have no time to sleep. Please know that we appreciate you and we thank people of this community, New Hampshire, the USA, and everywhere! Love, The Hernandez Family."
The show aired a video from the Hernandez family appearing to show Abigail hugging a close friend upon her Sunday night return.
Zenya Hernandez said on the TODAY show she is determined to find out who was responsible for taking her 15-year-old daughter.
Abby, as she is known, returned July 21, evoking more questions about her disappearance than answers. She vanished on her way home from school on Oct. 9, 2013. Law enforcement officials are now searching for a man in connection with her disappearance, and the New Hampshire Attorney General's Office released a sketch of a man based on information Abby provided.
However, investigators have released no details concerning what happened to Abby or where she had been.
"I feel like they just took and ripped something out of our souls,'' Zenya Hernandez, told TODAY's Natalie Morales in an exclusive interview. "And just as I swore that I'd find her, I'll find the person. I'll find out what happened."
Police have questioned Abigail and Zenya since her return but are not releasing any details about what may have happened to Abby.
Zenya Hernandez said she was speaking out to dispel rumors about what may have happened to her daughter during the time she was gone.
"The majority of people somehow believe that she was pregnant,'' Zenya said. "She was not. She did not run away. I firmly believe that. As for her knowing the individual, I firmly believe that she did not know the individual."
When she returned, Abby was wearing the same clothes as the ones she was wearing on the day she disappeared. Her mother said Abby was very thin and she was shocked by her physical appearance.
"She had a look in her eyes I've never ever seen before, and that's something that's haunting me and I think will haunt me the rest of my life," Mrs. Hernandez told TODAY.
Both were overwhelmed with emotion after Abby's return.
"It's a lot,'' Zenya said. "We're just taking it day by day. We just stood and looked at each other and then we hugged, and then I said, 'Thank God you're home, thank God you're home.'''
Family members searched relentlessly for Abby, creating the website Bring Abby Home. A $60,000 reward – which included $10,000 from Mrs. Hernandez, and $30,000 from her ex-husband – was posted for information leading to her safe return.

Oct. 26, 2007
New Haven, CT - The 2007 Bulldog Cup Yale Swimming Competition concluded October 20 at the Robert Kiphuth Exhibition Pool. Yale swimmers competed in four events against each other and accumulated points in each event. Freshman Ileana Lucos (308 points) won the women's event, while freshman Matt Lee (346 points) won the men's event. Lee and junior Alex Righi set new meet records in five events.
Less than a full month into practice, the teams have been averaging 6500 meters or more depending on training groups on single practice days, and 11,500 meters or more on double practice days. The meet offered a unique opportunity for the swimmers to not only compete against their teammates, but also for each swimmer to match his or her performance up against the vast history and tradition of Yale Swimming. Based on points scored, the men's and women's teams were also compared.
Lee, the men's winner, broke the meet's 400 IM, 500 free, and 1000 free records. Righi, who competed in the NCAA Championships last season, earned 329 points, the best among all juniors and second best overall, by breaking the competition's records for the 100 free and 100 fly. Senior Reid Madden scored the highest among all seniors with 280 points. Sophomore Craig Steen led the way against the sophomores by earning 284 points.
In addition to winning the overall women's meet, Lucos also scored the highest among all freshmen. Leading the way among the class of 2008, senior Laura Aronsson earned 299 points. Junior Laura Strittmatter came away with 287 points to lead all juniors. Sophomore Faris Montgomery, coming back from an injury last season, led all sophomores with 251 points.
Freshmen Lugar Choi, Kyle Veatch, and Jerold Lee also performed well in their Yale debuts by scoring 319, 310, and 298 points, respectively. .
After a scrimmage against McGill October 26, the Bulldogs open up their season in New York against Columbia November 9.

ST. PAUL, Minn.—A dispute over access to records kept by a private contractor doing public work is headed to the Minnesota Supreme Court.
The high court intends to review a Minnesota Court of Appeals decision that ruled a small-town newspaper could get access to contractor data related to a major school construction project. The case has broader implications for how records held by private companies are treated when the work is done at public expense.
Construction management firm Johnson Controls Inc., and subcontractor Architectural Resources Inc. want to shield data from school construction work in St. Louis County. The Ely-based Timberjay Newspapers sued to get access.
In October, Minnesota's appeals court concluded that Johnson Controls performed a governmental function, so project records are public data under state law.

Real Madrid playmaker Kaka is dreaming of a move to Major League Soccer, according to his brother, New York Red Bulls' Digao.
The former AC Milan star has long been linked with a move away from the Santiago Bernabeu, with the Rossoneri failing to re-sign him in the January transfer window due to financial reasons.
However, he has also been linked with a switch to the USA and Digao has been taking steps to persuade Kaka to join him.
"It's hard to say. Football changes very rapidly. It is a dream that he has, to come and play in the USA, and hopefully it will come true soon," the Madrid midfielder's brother told Goal.com.
"I think he's been very curious about football in the United States and New York and about my experience living here.
"I've been relaying good things to him. He's expressed his interest in one day playing in the United States."

Disasters Charter: Flood in Sudan
The Disasters Charter was activated for a Flood in Sudan:
Flood in Sudan
Type of Event: Flood
Location of Event: Sudan
Date of Charter Activation: 05 August 2014
Charter Requestor: UNITAR/UNOSAT on behalf of UNOCHA
Project Management: China Center for Resources Satellite Data and Application (CRESDA)
Description of the Event
Several weeks of heavy rain have caused floods in Sudan which have left approximately 39 people dead and 6000 homeless.
Sudan's rain season began in July and since then the floods have affected eight of Sudan's eighteen states, particularly the River Nile and North Kordofan states, where much of the damage has taken place. It has been estimated that 3000 homes were destroyed by the flooding and a further 2000 damaged.
The capital city, Khartoum, has also been affected, and hundreds of people are currently left homeless in the city. Residents have stated dissatisfaction with the nation's sewage network, which is ill-equipped to channel flood waters out of areas of habitation. The result is lingering flood waters which are a breeding ground for disease.
Volunteers in affected areas have attempted to keep back the flood waters with improvised barriers, but there are concerns over the long-term impact of the flooding, and over the risk of more rain to come in the following weeks.

I am growing eggplant for the first time ever, and it looks beautiful! The plant has large leaves and big purple flowers, and the fruit looks like deep purple marbles before it really takes shape. I know that often times the food I grow in my own garden doesn't look exactly like what we're used to seeing in a grocery store-- the food I grow has imperfect shapes and coloring and minor bruises, but I expect that because I'm not using standardized growing systems and chemical treatments. So herein lies my problem: if I don't know what it's supposed to look like, how do I know when my eggplant is ready to pick?
If I wait for it to look like a long, smooth, perfectly plump purple droplet, I might lose my chance to pick a ripe eggplant. But having never grown this vegetable before, I have nothing to compare it to other than past eggplants I've purchased. Here's what my eggplant plant looks like right now, with one especially large ripening fruit:
(Yes, I know I had a caterpiller problem, but I squashed those little suckers early and you'll see that the newer leaves are perfectly intact!)
I'm pretty sure those tiny little eggplant dudes aren't ready yet, but what about that big guy? He seems to be growing out and wide instead of down and long. Is this a trait of the eggplant breed I planted? Is this normal for home-grown eggplants? Will it start to lengthen out soon and end up looking normal?

If your organization currently uses or plans to use both SharePoint Server 2010 and SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) 2008 R2 as separate products, you should consider using SSRS in SharePoint integrated mode. You'll have only one security model to manage and, even better, business users will have only one environment in which to create, find, and share information, whether that information is in the form of reports, lists, documents, or other content types. Furthermore, you can manage reports using the same content management, workflow, and versioning features that you use for other SharePoint content.
SQL Server 2008 R2 adds many new features to SSRS, and several of the new features tighten integration with SharePoint 2010. One benefit of the enhanced integration is that it's easier to install and configure the SharePoint integrated mode of SSRS than it was in the previous versions of the two products. You'll also find additional benefits of the new integration features throughout the reporting life cycle as you author, manage, and access reports. Let's go exploring!
There are many different ways to set up SharePoint for integration with SSRS. You can install all required software on a single server to create a development environment, or you can distribute components across multiple production servers for a SharePoint farm. Regardless of the specific topology, the overall architecture for an integrated environment remains the same, as Figure 1 shows.
You start by installing a database instance to host the report server databases. You can use the same database instance to host the SharePoint configuration and content databases if you'd like, but you're not required to keep all the databases in the same location. If you decide to place all the databases in the same database instance, the Reporting Services service account, which you set in the Reporting Services Configuration Manager, must be a domain account.
The SharePoint databases will contain information used by the report server. The configuration database stores the URL for the Reporting Services Web service, information about the Report Server service account, and the authentication mode. It also includes configuration information about the server defaults, such as report history settings, processing timeouts, and logging. The content databases store the report server content types (e.g., report definition files and data sources), properties related to report server content, and security permissions.
Even when SSRS runs in SharePoint integrated mode, the report server databases are still necessary. The ReportServerTempDB database continues to store session data and cached instances, and the ReportServer database stores information related to snapshots, report history, subscriptions, and schedules. Furthermore, the ReportServer database also maintains copies of report server items that are stored in the SharePoint content database to facilitate faster processing during report execution.
At the time that you install the database instance, you can also add SSRS to the feature selection if you plan to run the two components on the same server. Wherever you choose to install SSRS, you can install SSRS in SharePoint integrated mode immediately, or in files-only mode if you prefer to manually complete the integration steps later. When SSRS runs in SharePoint integrated mode, it not only uses a different database structure but also uses custom security and delivery extensions.
During the installation of SharePoint, there are several prerequisites that are installed as part of the standard process. One of these prerequisites is the Reporting Services Add-in for SharePoint. Now that the add-in is a prerequisite, you no longer have to worry about finding the download site for the add-in file, making sure you have the right version for your combination of SharePoint and SSRS, and then installing the add-in separately as earlier versions require. If you perform a non-standard installation without installing the prerequisites automatically, you can still obtain the add-in by downloading it from Microsoft and installing it separately on each SharePoint Web front-end (WFE).
The add-in installs a new endpoint to SharePoint as a proxy for the Reporting Services Web service. It also installs the Report Viewer Web Part that allows you to view your reports in SharePoint. Finally, the add-in provides the application pages that are necessary for managing report properties, configuring data sources, setting up subscriptions, and everything else that Report Manager handles in a native-mode deployment.
If your report server is on a separate computer from the SharePoint server, your final step will be to install the SharePoint WFE on the report server and join the WFE to the SharePoint farm. Be sure to use the same version of SharePoint on both servers. Adding the WFE components to the report server enables it to communicate with the SharePoint configuration and content databases.
SSRS Configuration
If you installed SSRS in SharePoint integrated mode, no further configuration is necessary. However, if you installed it in files-only mode, you need to open the Reporting Services Configuration Manager located in the Configuration Tools folder in the Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 program group. Using this tool, you must specify an account to run the Reporting Services service account and a URL for the Reporting Services Web service. Then, create the report server database in SharePoint integrated mode.
SharePoint Configuration
After all the products are installed and the SSRS configuration is completed, you're ready to begin the SharePoint configuration process. For SharePoint, use SharePoint Central Administration where you'll find a set of links for SSRS on the General Application Settings page. At minimum, you must open the Reporting Services Integration page, which is shown in Figure 2 to provide the report server URL, the authentication mode for impersonated connections to the report server, and the credentials of a member of the Administrators group on the report server. This page consolidates the settings required to integrate earlier versions of SSRS with Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (MOSS) 2007, and thereby streamlines the configuration process.
The choice of Windows Authentication or Trusted Account for the authentication mode affects the way that the user identity is communicated by SharePoint to the report server and how data sources must be configured. If you choose Windows Authentication and Kerberos is enabled on your network or SharePoint and SSRS are running on the same server, you can use Windows integrated security for your data sources. If you select Trusted Account instead, the Windows user identity can't be shared, and you must configure data sources to use stored credentials.
One new setting on the Reporting Services Integration page is the Activate the Reporting Services Feature option. The default selection activates the Reporting Services feature in all existing site collections, but you can choose instead to activate it only in specified site collections.
At this point, the integration configuration process is complete, but you might want to review the default settings on the Set Server Defaults page accessible by a link in the Reporting Services section on the General Application Settings page in SharePoint Central Administration. Here you'll find the default settings for the number of report history snapshots to store for each report, report processing timeouts, and report processing logs. You can also specify whether to enable Windows integrated security, click-through reports for Report Builder 1.0 reports, the client-side print control download, and the Report Builder download. This last download will launch Report Builder 3.0 by default, but you can change the default URL for the download to launch Report Builder 1.0 instead if your users prefer to create their ad hoc reports by using semantic models.
Site Preparation
Before you can start deploying reports to SharePoint, you'll need to complete a few more steps. You must create a Web application, a site collection, and add the SSRS content types to at least one document library in your new site.
To create a Web application in SharePoint Central Administration, go to Application Management and click the Manage web applications link. On the ribbon, click New. The default settings should suffice, but the following are three key settings on this page to note if you plan to use Classic Mode Authentication:
Authentication Provider. The authentication provider defaults to NTLM, which means you won't be able to use Windows integrated security with your data sources. You can switch the authentication provider to Negotiate (Kerberos) if you have Kerberos enabled on your network and you have configured SSRS integration to use Windows Authentication.
Anonymous Access. The Allow Anonymous setting is set to No, which is required for any Web application you plan to use with SSRS.
Application Pool Identity. The best practice for an application pool identity in SharePoint is to use a domain user account. If you decide instead to use Network Service and the report server is located on a separate server from SharePoint, you must configure SSRS integration to use the Trusted Account authentication mode.
As an alternative to Windows Authentication for your Web application, you can use Claims-Based Authentication. When SharePoint communicates with the report server, it generates a SharePoint user token, which the report server uses to generate the proper context for the user and to render the request appropriately. However, if you configure SSRS to use the Trusted Account authentication mode and the Web application uses Claims-Based Authentication, you must configure data sources to use stored credentials. Otherwise, Windows integrated security will fail.
Next, go to Application Management and click the Create site collections link. If necessary, change the Web application to the one you created in the previous step. After naming the site collection and setting the URL, select a template. A good choice here is the Business Intelligence Center site template on the Enterprise tab. You must also assign a site administrator on this page.
Finally, you might need to manually add the SSRS content types to the document libraries that you want to use for storing reports in your SharePoint site. Open the applicable document library, click the Library tab on the ribbon, and then click the Library Settings button. Click the Advanced settings link and select Yes for the option Allow management of content types. Click OK, and then click the Add from existing site content types link. On the subsequent page, you can locate the content types, such as Report Builder Report or Report Data Source. Adding these content types allows users with the appropriate permissions to develop new reports using Report Builder or to add new data sources without having to create and deploy them in Business Intelligence Development Studio (BIDS).
Authoring Features
Now let's review the specific enhancements to the reporting life cycle that SharePoint integration with SSRS provides, beginning with the authoring stage of the life cycle. In this area, the list of enhancements is short because there's only one new feature relevant to SharePoint, and it doesn't even require you to set up SSRS in SharePoint integrated mode to use it. This new feature lets you use a SharePoint list as a data source. In previous versions of SSRS, you could access data in a SharePoint list only by using custom code.
To use this feature, create a data source using the Microsoft SharePoint List connection type, and provide credentials that are authorized to access the list. The connection string is the URL for the site or subsite to which the list belongs, such as SharePointServerName/SiteName or SharePointServerName/SiteName/SubsiteName.
When you create a dataset using this data source, a special query designer is available for you to browse the available lists on the specified site. You choose fields from the list to include in your report. The dataset can include fields from one list only. Figure 3 shows the query designer for a SharePoint status list. Note that you can also apply filters and create parameters based on the filters in the query designer.
The process to deploy the reports to SharePoint hasn't changed, but if you're not familiar with the process, Figure 4 shows examples of the project property values for each target folder and the report server URL. Each target folder represents a document library or data connections library in SharePoint, and the target server URL is the SharePoint site containing these libraries.
Management Features
Moving on to the management stage of the reporting life cycle, the following new features improve the SharePoint integration experience for SSRS: alternate access mappings, RS utility/scripting, diagnostic logging, and the file sync feature.
Alternate access mappings. Many people use alternate access mappings (AAM) in SharePoint as a way to associate web requests with a specific web application and SharePoint site using a URL that's different from the assigned URL. As an example, you might have a public URL, such as www.adventureworks.com that you want to associate with an internal URL, such as sharepoint.adventureworks.com. AAM, in the latest release of SharePoint, now supports SSRS, which means external users and internal users can use separate URLs to access the same reports. Each web application can have up to five different URLs—one for each SharePoint zone: default, Internet, intranet, extranet, and custom. Each URL can use a different authentication provider, which means you can easily support Windows Authentication for internal users and Forms Authentication for external users.
RS utility/scripting. A major shortcoming with SharePoint integration in the past was the lack of support for the RS.EXE utility. Many report server administrators use this utility to deploy reports to a production server and for other routine administrative tasks, such as setting security or managing subscriptions. There's nothing different about the way this utility works with a SharePoint integrated mode report server. All arguments for the utility remain the same.
Diagnostic logging. Administrators spend a lot of time poring through logs for a variety of reasons. The integration of SSRS diagnostic information into the SharePoint Unified Logging Service (ULS) now simplifies the troubleshooting process for SharePoint administrators. Even with the availability of ULS, all other SSRS logging and performance counters are still useful tools for troubleshooting any problems that you might encounter when running SSRS in SharePoint integrated mode.
To use this feature, click Configure diagnostic logging on the Monitoring page in SharePoint Central Administration. Expand the SQL Server Reporting Services section to review the available categories, as shown in Figure 5, and then select the type of information that you want to include in the ULS. At the bottom of the list, you can choose the level of detail to include in the ULS by specifying the least critical event to report to the trace log. The option to report the least critical event to the event log isn't supported by SSRS.
File Sync Feature. When you deploy report items to document libraries using the RS.EXE utility or the deploy command in BIDS, a synchronization process runs on the report server to ensure both the SharePoint content database and the report server database have the same copy of each newly added report item. This synchronization process also runs whenever someone updates or retrieves a report item. However, if you manually uploaded a report server item to SharePoint, the synchronization process didn't run automatically in the previous versions of SSRS. Now, you can activate the Report Server File Sync Feature at the site level, not the site collection level. This feature is disabled by default.
Report Access Features
Apart from the UI enhancements that SharePoint 2010 provides, you won't see many new enhancements for the report access stage of the integrated reporting life cycle. The Report Viewer toolbar now includes the Export to Data Feed button, which allows you to generate an ATOMSVC document suitable for importing data into Microsoft PowerPivot for Excel, just as you can do in the native mode Report Viewer. The rendering process is engineered to perform faster than it did in MOSS, but you might not notice a difference if query processing takes longer than rendering.
One other change to SharePoint made possible by the Reporting Services Add-in is the ability to render reports in local mode without a dependency on a report server. You can use local mode rendering to view reports from Access Services, or you can view reports using a SharePoint List data source. Local mode allows you to export reports to the same formats available in SSRS, but you can't configure subscriptions or set up snapshots for these reports.
Get Integrated
Reading about the improved integration of SSRS 2008 R2 with SharePoint 2010 is a good first step. Now see for yourself what's new and improved by setting up a development server with SharePoint and SSRS, deploying some reports, and exploring the features that I've described in this article. The next generation of SharePoint and SSRS integration is a big step forward!

Police were summoned to the apartment at around 8 a.m. Tuesday after Jason Wryrynen, 44, tried to take a 15-month-old girl from her mother, The Sacramento Bee reported. The mother was able to wrestle her daughter away and struggled with Wryrynen until officers arrived.
While stressing there is "no confirmed nexus" between the two crimes, Placerville police Capt. Mike Scott said there are some similarities between Wryrynen and the description of the suspect in the killing of Leila Fowler in Valley Springs on Saturday.
Placerville officers were talking to Calaveras County investigators, and a DNA sample was collected from Wryrynen.
Calaveras County officials have been collecting evidence but so far have no suspects in Leila's killing. She was attacked in her home around noon Saturday. Her 12-year-old brother was home at the time. Authorities have said he encountered the attacker, who then ran away.
There was "no sign of a burglary or robbery and no sign of this being a targeted killing," Sgt. Chris Hewitt, a sheriff's spokesman, said Tuesday.
Authorities said a witness saw a person running from the Leila's home and provided a description similar to the one by Leila's brother. The suspect was described as white or Hispanic, about 6 feet tall with a muscular build and long gray hair.
On Tuesday evening, hundreds of people gathered at Jenny Lind Elementary School in Valley Springs where Leila's mother, Krystal Walters, tearfully addressed the crowd.
"I just want to thank the entire community and all of our family and friends for all the overwhelming amount of support you've given our family," Walters said. "It will never be forgotten. Thank you."

The Energy Information Administration weekly supply support seems to suggest that low gas prices are spurring demand! Drivers are saying fill it up again as they felt richer as gas prices(NYMEX:RBZ13) fall near $3 a gallon in many parts of the country. Gasoline demand increased by 2.6% last week, the highest level since last July as production fell due to refining issues. This led to a bigger than expected 3.6 million barrel gasoline draw that slowed the major sell-off in the petroleum complex.
Oil bounced as well, as the 1.58 million barrel increase in supply was not as strong as forecast. Still, oil supply (NYMEX:CLZ13) is at a record high for this time of year and the market was due for a bounce. Distillate also offered support as strong demand led to a 4.90 million barrel draw down.
The numbers caused the market to rebound and we may start to range trade. Product strength will give crude support but overwhelming supply should keep us grounded. With refiners coming out of maintenance, the anchor supply should tighten but high production levels will still be the bearish anchor.
Bloomberg reports that "The alleged fixing of oil prices is unlikely to sway traders from using Brent as a benchmark for buying and selling oil in the $5.7 trillion commodity market, according to analysts and brokers from London to Tokyo. Four energy traders claim in a lawsuit that some of the world's biggest oil companies including BP Plc (BP/), Statoil ASA (STL) and Royal Dutch Shell Plc (RDSA) conspired with Morgan Stanley (MS) and energy traders such as Vitol Group to fix spot prices for Brent for more than a decade. The North Sea oil price as assessed by Platts, a unit of New York-based McGraw Hill Financial Inc., is used to price more than half the world's crude including Australia's Cossack, Malaysia's Tapis and Castilla in Colombia.
"Brent is going to remain as the benchmark for the foreseeable future at least, because there is no real alternative to it at the moment," said Osamu Fujisawa, an independent oil economist in Tokyo, who previously worked for 26 years at Shell and 17 years at Saudi Arabian Oil Co. "It's very well established, and those who are exposed to it don't really have a choice but to stick with it."
The case is one of at least seven U.S. lawsuits alleging price fixing in the London-based Brent market. European Union antitrust authorities raided the offices of companies including Platts, BP and Shell in May amid allegations of collusion in setting prices of crude, refined products and biofuels. The probe comes as global regulators scrutinize financial measures around the world after fining banks about $2.5 billion for distorting other benchmarks.

One Healthcare System
Our culture is defined by innovation, a commitment to quality and service. We realize the leaders in industry have all these three traits. Apple is an excellent example of a company to which we hold in high regards in terms of culture and their commitments to their brand and customers.
Our goal is to revolutionize clinical workflow with innovative technology. We enhance clinical operations to optimal cost efficiency by providing physicians with a complete software package that addresses all the daily needs of a doctor, from patient check-in, medical examination, medical prescription, to billing.
We provide clients complete enterprise-level solutions at a fraction of the costs of industry standards. Through our comprehensive products & services, clinics and practitioners of all sizes realize unparalleled benefits of enhanced office workflow and increased productivity.
Our name comes from the concept that we will be the first, last, and only solution physicians will need to use in their practice, hence the "ONE". We couple easy-to-use, comprehensive technology, with quality.
This industry is an emerging industry, relatively new. Our business is in the Healthcare IT sector (Electronic Health Records) and our target are physicians operating in small clinics; your neighborhood doctor.
Physicians in the small markets do not understand the full benefits of utilizing technology, as many are not very tech-savvy. Moreover, these same doctors don't have the budgets to adopt technology solutions that are available to the doctors who operate with large health groups. This results in them being left often with very subpar software and behind the technology curve.
However, these same doctors know they need to change and know they need to adopt fresh technology to have their practices survive. They want change and are looking for the most innovative and cost effective options out there. They know what they want in their software, but often times the features they want are outside their budgets. (This will not be the case as One Healthcare System will provide them with all their needs).
- Color tones: should have at least 2 to 3 color tones.
- Colors: We would like to have brighter colors. But we also operate in the healthcare industry, so nothing too outlandish in color choices.
- Logo appearance: Give us a sleek design like Apple's with some more color. As to logo image, show us what you think works best with our brand name. Logos with logo images are preferred, but not necessary. Be Innovative, but professional is all we ask!
- Would like emphasis on "ONE"
- Would like ideas incorporating our tagline:
"Simply Innovative."
Our logo will be on our website, hard/soft-copy marketing material, and business cards.
Here is a sample of the website our logo will be on:

SPRING VALLEY — The developers of a gun range in the city of Spring Valley are shooting for opening their doors by the end of next spring.
"We're going to try and put together an ordinance," Mayor Cliff Banks said.
City council members discussed the range at this week's meeting. Before the range can be established, the city would have to change at least one and potentially several ordinances involving everything from noise to gun possession.
A location for the range hasn't been chosen, but some officials believe the business would make a welcome fit to the city's outdoors themes. The city is examining what other municipalities with gun ranges have done about their ordinances and concerns.
"It's in the attorney's hands," Banks said.
In other business, the council also voted to increase the yearly salary for the city's economic development director to $32,500, effective Oct. 1, for 25 hours per week of work.

General: RTSP live monitoring sessions fail when using CUBE
From DocWiki
RTSP live monitoring sessions fail when using CUBE
|Problem Summary
|When using a mixed load in a CUBE deployment, multiple RTSP live monitoring sessions failed (RTSP packets were dropped). Recordings may also sound very choppy on playback.
|Error Message
|Possible Cause
|CUBE may be using a lower Ethernet cable connection (for example, 100 MB connection) instead of the suggested 1 GB Ethernet cable connection. Under a heavy load, this connection may cause multiple IP packets to drop.
|Recommended Action
| If your CUBE deployment is running heavy loads, verify that the Ethernet cable connecting CUBE to the switch is 1 GB.
|Release 8.5(3), Release 8.5(4), Release 9.0(1).

text: Easter celebrates the resurrection of Jesus three days after his crucifixion and generally marks a time of rebirth, coinciding with the rebirth of nature's rich bounty in the northern hemisphere. Millions of Christians around the world will observe the holiday in a variety of ways, from attending simple sunrise services to rich liturgical masses. It is also a time for many families to gather at meals and for fun with youngsters hunting for special Easter eggs.

Eli Lake anticipates the party this coming Monday in honor of the ninetieth birthday of Bernard Lewis: "Bernard Lewis marking 90 at grand fete." The article is interesting in its entirety, but those of us looking for the secret of his longevity as well as the highlights of his vast schoarship might be most struck by Lake's reference to Professor Lewis's "girlfriend" (Buntzie Ellis Churchill.) Ms. Churchill appears to have planned the fete:
[W]hile most 90-year-olds would be content to see their families on their birthday, Mr. Lewis will be celebrating his with a senator, a former secretary of state, a top television news anchor, and a very senior White House official whose locations are usually not disclosed. On Monday, Senator Biden, Henry Kissinger, Judy Woodruff, and Fouad Ajami will join Mr. Lewis at the Philadelphia World Affairs Council to discuss such weighty matters as "Domestic Security and International Image"and "Europe: A Fracturing Union."
Mr. Lewis's girlfriend, Buntzie Ellis Churchill, wrote in her invitation to Mr. Kissinger, "As the president of the World Affairs Council of Philadelphia and lady in Bernard Lewis's life, it's just easier to plan a conference than it is to bake a cake."
It is typical of a master teacher to take turn such an occasion to educational purposes. Another highlight of Lakes's article comes courtesy of Ms. Churchill. When did Lewis's scholarly quest commence? Lake writes:
Born in London in 1916, Mr. Lewis became interested in studying the Middle East, according to Ms. Churchill during his bar mitzvah. "With his bar mitzvah, he started to learn a new alphabet and that is when he began to learn his first foreign language," she said. Mr. Lewis attended the University of London at the time as opposed to Oxford and other schools because it was the only institution to offer a degree in Middle Eastern history and not just Arabic.

This is my photo journal where I post images of my life. Some of them are attempts of portraiture, learning the rules so I can break them, but most of them are just snapshots of things I do, the friends I have and the new friends I meet.
I shoot with a Canon 5D Mark II, a 24mm f1.4, a 50mm f1.2 and a 85mm f1.2

Jack Goes Boating
Jack and Connie are two single people who on their own might continue to recede into the anonymous background of the city, but in each other begin to find the courage and desire to pursue their budding relationship. In contrast, the couple that introduced them, Clyde and Lucy are confronting unresolved issues in their marriage. Jack is a limo driver with vague dreams of landing a job with the MTA and an obsession with reggae that has prompted him to begin a half-hearted attempt at growing dreadlocks. He spends most of his time hanging out with his best friend and fellow driver Clyde and Clyde's wife Lucy. The couple set Jack up with Connie, Lucy's co-worker at a Brooklyn funeral home. Being with Connie inspires Jack to learn to cook, pursue a new career and take swimming lessons from Clyde so he can give Connie the romantic boat ride she dreams of. But as Jack and Connie cautiously circle commitment, Clyde and Lucy's marriage begins to disintegrate. From there, we watch as each couple comes face to face with the inevitable path of their relationship.

Spring 2001 Registration -- Update. Due to difficulties in finalizing plans for certain courses, distribution of the preliminary schedule of classes for Spring 2001 will be delayed until approximately Monday, November 27. The schedule will be distributed outside the third floor cafeteria and on the Law School's Intranet site (http://ck.kentlaw.edu). The final schedule and Registration Bulletin will be distributed no later than Thursday, November 30 and will also be available on the Intranet site. Registration, which will again take place exclusively online, will begin Friday, December 1, at 9:00 a.m. and will end on Monday, December 4 at 9:00 p.m. You may register at any time during that period. After the end of the registration period, the registration requests will be processed according to each students registration priority. In other words, registration will not be conducted on a first-come, first-served basis; as long as you register during the designated period, you will have an equal chance of being admitted to a class as other students within your registration priority group.
List of Recommended Courses. A list of recommended upper-level courses adopted by the faculty is linked to this page.
Academic Calendar Reminder: Last Week of Classes. The class schedule for the last week of the semester is as follows:
Monday, November 27: Monday classes meet (Labor Day make-up)
Read period starts Saturday, December 2. Exams start Thursday, December 7 and end Tuesday, December 19.
Exams on Computer. If you have signed up to take one or more of your exams on computer (either a lab computer or your own laptop), please read the announcement linked to this page.
Availability of Professors' Old Exams. Many professors make their old exams available for students to review. Exams dating from 1992 and before are bound in volumes available in the 10th floor reading room in the Library. Exams after 1992 were scanned into the online eLOISe system, which is temporarily unavailable due to the recent network conversion. While the eLOISe system is down, copies of post-1992 exams are available in the Document Center on the 9th floor of the Library.
Reengineering Civil Court Process for Credit or Cash. Scholarships and job opportunities are available for a Spring 2001 course to be taught by Chicago-Kent Professor Ronald Staudt and by Professor Charles Owen of IIT's Institute of Design. The Justice Web Collaboratory: Public Access to Justice Systems and Systematic Design Workshop will be worth 4 credit hours. Law students may audit the course or take it for credit. Professor Staud't permission is required to take the course. Chicago-Kent and the National Center for State Courts are partners in the Justice Web Collaboratory -- a national Internet project designed to support judges use of the web and improve access to justice using the tools of the Internet. For 18 months beginning in Fall 2000, the Law School, the Institute of Design, and the National Center for State Courts will study and propose a redesign of the complex civil court processes. The target of this study and design project is the construction of a consumer-based model for public access to justice. This represents a bold attempt to harness the power of the Internet and the most advanced process design technologies to fundamentally re-engineer civil court processes in which self-represented litigants seek to access judicial services. The consumer-based approach will better meet the needs of not only self-represented litigants, but also the needs of lawyers, judges, court staff and others involved in the judicial process. In the Spring 2001 Systematic Design Workshop, interdisciplinary teams of graduate students from the Institute of Design and law students from Chicago-Kent will continue the research begun in the Fall 2000 Justice Web Collaboratory IPRO. The Spring Workshop introduces students to the application of Structured Planning methods to complex design problems at the system level. Teams will investigate the pro se litigation process in the courts of Illinois, Colorado, California and Delaware and will develop proposals for improving the quality of the process for litigants and the courts. Team techniques are emphasized, and formatted information handling and computer-supported structuring processes are used at appropriate stages of project definition, information development, structuring, concept development and communication. An emphasis will be placed on the integration of new information and communication technologies. Classes are scheduled for Tuesday and Friday afternoons from 2:00-6:00 p.m. at the Institute of Design, located at 350 N. LaSalle. Scholarships and employment opportunities are available. Students are also encouraged to enroll in ID 529 Structured Planning, either for credit or audit. For additional information about this course and the available opportunities, contact Todd Pedwell (firstname.lastname@example.com)or Professor Staudt (firstname.lastname@example.com).
