WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Barack Obama says that the proposed Keystone XL pipeline project from Canada to Texas should only be approved if it doesn't worsen carbon pollution.
The $7 billion pipeline has become a contentious issue, with Republicans touting the jobs it would create and demanding its approval and environmentalists urging the Obama administration to reject it, because it would carry oil from Canadian tar sands to the Texas Gulf Coast.
"Allowing the Keystone pipeline to be built requires a finding that doing so would be in our nation's interests," Obama said in a speech on climate change at Georgetown University. "Our national interest would be served only if this project does not significantly exacerbate the problem of carbon pollution."
While it appeared designed to reassure environmentalist fearful that the pipeline will be approved, Obama's remark could also indicate an easing of the way for the pipeline, if the carbon standard is met.
The White House has insisted the State Department is making the decision about whether TransCanada's (NYSE:TRP) Keystone pipeline is in the national interest, but Obama made it clear he was instructing the department to approve it only if the project won't increase overall, net emissions of greenhouse gases.
A State Department report on the pipeline earlier this year acknowledged that development of tar sands in Alberta would create greenhouse gases, but also made clear that other methods to transport the oil -- including rail, trucks and barges -- also pose a risk to the environment. For instance, a scenario that would move the oil on trains to mostly existing pipelines would release 8 percent more greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide than Keystone XL, the State report said.
The report also said that even without the pipeline, extraction of oil from the tar sands would likely not be affected.
A top aide to House Speaker John Boehner said the remarks indicated that the pipeline should be approved.
"The standard the president set today should lead to speedy approval of the Keystone pipeline," Boehner spokesman Brendan Buck said. "Based on the lengthy review by the State Department, construction of the pipeline would not have a significant environmental impact. It's time to sign off on Keystone and put Americans to work."
Still, environmentalist took heart in Obama's remarks, noting it was the first time the administration had directly linked approval of the pipeline to its effect on pollution. The White House has previously resisted efforts by environmental groups to link the Keystone project to broader efforts curb carbon pollution from power plants.
"Today President Obama set a standard that the Keystone XL pipeline cannot harm the climate if it is to be approved. That will be difficult standard to meet," said Daniel J. Weiss, a senior fellow at the liberal-leaning Center for American Progress.
"For the first time, the president has set a do-no-climate harm standard before he approves the Keystone XL pipeline," Weiss said.

Hi to all,
I have some things that I want to know. I am right now using a free asp.net webhosting ("somee.com"). The problem is that when I am visiting a page, there's a tendency that values stored in my session variables are lost. Therefore, it causes an error when the requested page is loaded.
1. I am thinking of using sessionState mode="SqlServer". Will it solve my problem?
Actualy Im working on it but Im having problems when connecting to the sql database.
2. Is that a problem in the webhost?
3. Do free webhosting sites provide allow session state in the sql server?. Because ive tried it locally into my computer and error say's i should intall the ASP.NET Session State SQL Server version 2.0 or above.
I have a web application in which i need to logout the user if he clicks the logout button or even if he closes his browser window. On Logout button click, i am doing session.Abandon(), but how to go about his browser window close.
Can anybody help with a code sample.

I am creating a simple shopping cart using a datatable that is passed into a session object. I have a small mini cart that displays the total number of items in the cart as well as the running total - this is displayed in a web control. When the web control starts up I run a try/catch to see if the session object exists, if it doesn't I create the datatable for the cart and store it in the session. I then have a datalist control that contains all the information for my products including an "add to cart" button. When the page loads everything looks fine. If I click on an "add to cart" button nothing happens to the session information. If I click on it again, the session information updates - displaying only one item is in the cart and then counts up correctly there after. Additionally, after adding an item, if I select a different item in the list, the same issue occurs. I am not sure why this is happeing, if anyone can give me an idea I would appreciate it.
What are the issues (if any) of setting sessions to expire after an extended period of time as in 4-8 hours?

1) we're running it on a intranet 2) sessions are soley to retain state between requests3) its not like a connection to the DB where you can conceivable run out

Having a very wierd problem. I have an application that uses Crystal Reports and it uses what I have found to be a common scenario (I am not a CR expert in any way). I have an ASPX page that gathers options for the report, and then it goes and gets the data and if there is some, a button appears for them to launch the report. On clicking that button, the code sets some values in the HttpResponse.Context area, then performs a Server.Transfer to another ASPX page that is our Report Template. This page contains the CR stuff and it generates a PDF version of the report. It then does the following code:

Running a Web farm means managing session state across servers. Since session state can't be shared across a Web farm with Internet Information Services 5.0, a custom solution is required. One such solution using a tool called the session manager is described here. The article begins with a description of the SQL Server database used to store state information, the stored procedures used to update it, and the retrieval of session data. ASP code drives the session manager tool and the COM and COM+ components that run the stored procedures.

Candy Nugent is the newest addition to the Snyder Museum and Creative Arts Center.
Nugent replaced former museum director, Emily Graves because Graves recently moved to Sterlington.
Nugent said she worked at Roger's Hallmark for many years prior to the store closing about five years ago.
About two weeks ago she began her position as director at the Synder Museum and said she is enjoying her new job.
"I have lived in Bastrop all my life," Nugent said. "So the transition has been good for me. It is a lot of fun here. I like meeting new people, visiting and helping people out."
Nugent said she loves art and is very involved in her church in Bastrop, where she helps out with the youth group on Wednesday evenings as well as helping to plan church events.
"I am a graduate of Bastrop High," she said. "After I graduated I got married and had children. I have three daughters and four grandchildren, with one on the way."
Nugent said she hasn't decided exactly what changes, if any, will be made at the museum, but in March she is planning on announcing the workshops, events and artists that will come and display.
"I am excited about being here," she said.

Recently, I noticed certain WM themes fail to display right/left borders which makes resizing windows from the side impossible. Windows also leave a 1px gap on the left/right (where the window border should be) between themselves and the monitor edge or themselves and other windows.
I use the Totem theme (Arch+XFCE, clean install) which is where I first noticed the issue. I thought I'd seek help on the forum before filing a bug report.
The left screenshot in the image below shows my WM current behavior, while the right shows the border drawn in where it should be.
The issue is also present with the following other themes:
Default, Default-4.8, Metabox, and Next
I should also perhaps mention the files "right-active.xpm"/"left-active.xpm" exist in the theme folders, and I suppose are just not used for 1px border themes.

Do you have any error message in ~/.xsession-errors?
Sometimes maybe a GTK upgrade broke the themes.
I don't have an ~/.xsession-errors file, but I think that might be due to how I'm launching XFCE.
I redirected the standard output and error from my launching command like this:
| exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch startxfce4 >> ~/output 2>&1
and recieved the following, maybe relevant outputs:
QGtkStyle was unable to detect the current GTK+ theme.
QSystemTrayIcon::setVisible: No Icon set
No, that's a bug in Qt that makes the Qt apps not use the selected GTK theme.
You can simply launch an app that has the problem from the terminal and look at the messages about the GTK theme.
Possibly related to this bug? https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54168

Elliot Johns' 16 Making His Mark In Poolby Jocelyn Hopkinson '15 • January 23, 2013 Share:
Swimming and Diving has had the biggest infusion of youth to its roster more than any other sport at Wabash in the last two years. 16 of its 21 swimmers and divers are underclassmen, including eight freshmen. Leading the way for the 2016 class is middle-distance swimmer Elliot Johns.
Johns already has the second fastest time in the 500-yard freestyle event at 4:48. He is pacing the team in both the 200-yard backstroke (1:44) and the 200-yard freestyle (1:54).
"He has the height (6-foot, 5-inches) to be great and you can't teach that," Coach Steve Barnes said. "His height coupled with the fact that he's a strong kicker makes him very talented."
Johns has been an early contributor in the sprint and middle-distance races. He is somewhat new to the events which makes his successes all the more impressive.
"In high school, I swam the mile and other long events," the Carmel, IN native said. "But those events don't work out as well for me. Towards the end of my senior year, I transitioned more to middle distance."
Barnes aims to continue working with the freshman on the change. The coach said one of the big reasons is Johns' preference.
"We're just refocusing what he swims here versus in high school," Barnes said. "He was swimming a wide range of events in high school but we've scaled that down to just a middle distance sprint focus for him. I think that's where his talents will lie as he gets older and it also helps the team out now because we have a strong distance crew.
"He's faster in just a couple of months of training than he was when he graduated high school which speaks to his work ethic."
As it turns out, work ethic and practice had an important influence in Johns' decision to choose Wabash.
"In high school, practices consisted of swimming a lot of yards," Johns said. "Here, there's less volume but a lot more intensity."
Little Giant swimmers have two two-hour practices a day, with one in the morning and one in the afternoon. Barnes said this helps the team because in order to swim fast, they need to train fast. He also found an academic advantage too.
"The schedule helps our guys with time management," he said. "Academics are always going to come first, so it's important for me to use our swimmers' time efficiently."
Time had to be easier to manage over winter break. The team made its annual trip to Florida.
"The trip was a great escape from everything else," Barnes said. "There were 50 to 100 other colleges in the area. It gave our guys a chance to practice with other teams and interact with them. From a mental standpoint, that helped with the stresses they might have training here on an empty campus and the weather is bad."
Johns said another highlight of the trip was team bonding.
"If I had to described it I'd say it's practice, beach, practice, beach, sleep," he said with a smile. "The trip is where a lot of guys really get to know each other, especially the guys who are in fraternities and in dorms. We'll got to hang out with one another outside of the pool and no distractions."
The trip exposed the team to good competition, but none better than the Oct. 27 meet at defending national champion, Denison. The 200-freestyle race was one of the rare times Johns was overmatched in his career. The swimmer in the lane next to him was the defending national champion in the event and the national record holder.
"I was a little bit apprehensive in that race," Johns admitted. "I was with him for the first 100 meters of the race, but I honestly don't think he was going too hard. The last half he really turned it on and beat me by five seconds."
Barnes looks past the win-loss record to find the silver lining in the sport.
"Whether you win or lose, you can look at the clock and evaluate yourself on your performance," he said. "When you swim against national champions, you have to remind freshmen and sophomores that they didn't walk in and become national champions overnight."
Wabash will have another shot at Denison along with the rest of the North Coast Athletic Conference when conference championships are held in February. If the youthful Little Giants continue their improvement, Johns and company will have the opportunity to make a strong statement to the rest of the conference.

TMS: Copper sinks to lowest in nearly 2 weeks, lead hits month peak
(Adds quotes, updates prices, changes dateline from MELBOURNE) By Eric Onstad LONDON, March 22 (Reuters) - Copper fell on Wednesday, joining a sell-off in shares, oil and other commodities on disappointment that U.S. President Trump was failing to implement plans to cut taxes and boost infrastructure spending. Lead bucked the trend, however, hitting the highest in a month, after available LME inventories slid by 36 percent, creating worries about short-term supply. "We seem to be having a bout of profit taking set against some falls in equity markets and some risk aversion," said Robin Bhar, head of metals research at Societe Generale in London. "There looks to be a reassessment taking place since Trump hasn't said very much lately about tax cuts or infrastructure spending and markets are probably running out of patience," he added. "I think it's a correction rather than any more than that. We're heading into the second quarter and the markets are still well positioned to get some more modest gains." FUNDAMENTALS * COPPER: Three-month copper on the London Metal Exchange had shed 0.7 percent to $5,738.50 a tonne by 1150 GMT, extending losses from the previous session. Earlier in the day, prices hit their weakest since March 10 at $5,715 a tonne, but found support at the 100-day moving average ($5,722). * MARKETS: Growing doubts Trump will be able to deliver on a promise of tax cuts that has powered stocks markets to record highs pushed shares lower and drove investors to seek safety in government debt, gold and the yen. * CHINA SMELTERS: Copper stocks in China's Shenzhen are seen as ample, while Chinese smelters are still not rushing to buy spot copper concentrate shipments, a smelter source said. * COPPER SPREADS: LME cash copper prices traded at their steepest discount to three-month prices since Jan. 18, data showed , which was the widest since June 2015, suggesting the refined market is still in ample supply. * ESCONDIDA: The striking union at BHP Billiton's Escondida copper mine in Chile, the world's largest, will meet with the company on Wednesday to resume conversations, both parties said on Tuesday night. * LEAD: was the biggest gainer on the LME, climbing as much as 1.9 percent to a month high of $2,315.50 after on-warrant LME stocks - those not earmarked for shipment and therefore available to investors - slid by 36 percent. The impact would likely be short-lived, however, since the move was probably linked to a strategy to roll over or close out an LME position, Bhar said. * NICKEL: was the biggest loser, falling 1.7 percent to $9,985, pulled down by losses in Chinese steel futures DATA/EVENTS 1300 U.S. Monthly home price index Jan 1400 U.S. Existing home sales Feb PRICES Three month LME copper Most active ShFE copper Three month LME aluminium Most active ShFE aluminium Three month LME zinc Most active ShFE zinc Three month LME lead Most active ShFE lead Three month LME nickel Most active ShFE nickel Three month LME tin Most active ShFE tin ARBS (Additional reporting by Melanie Burton in Melbourne; Editing by Ruth Pitchford)

This is a tribute film to the first folk music group to break through to a wider audience, the Weavers, formed in the late '40s by Pete Seeger, Lee Hays, Fred Hellerman, and Ronnie Gilbert. In 1950, the group made history with their recording of the Leadbelly song Goodnight, Irene, which stayed on top of the pop charts for an astonishing 13 weeks.
Two years later, the Weavers ran afoul of anti-communist politicians and activists dedicated to rooting out all entertainers with affiliations or associations with that party. The Weavers were blacklisted for several years, then made a stunning comeback with a New Year's Eve 1955 concert at Carnegie Hall, which became their most popular recording.
Seeger left the group in 1958 for a solo career, and the Weavers carried on with several lineups for another five years. For this film, the original quartet re-formed in 1981 and performed a final show at Carnegie Hall, with the ill Lee Hays in a wheelchair.
He died before the film was released, and it's clear that, although Seeger went on to the greatest fame among the original members, Hays' spirit guided the group throughout its existence and fuels this film. Director Jim Brown mixes footage of the group in their heyday with reminiscences by the members as they prepare for their last waltz together.

Yep I'dagree qith all of that
- 11:21 pm
Sad news today, but I'm glad I was priviledged to watch him in the last couple of years and witness his final glorious moment at the opening day of this year's World Championship.
He changed the game, he won more than anyone and did it in style. Many of his records probably won't be beaten and certainly not by one player. He was a perfect professional and he has done plenty for snooker. Decades from now he will still be considered a true grandmaster.
I remember him saying once in an interview that there can never be a consensus about who's the greatest player in a given sport and so the best achievement is that your name must be mentioned every time someone has a conversation about this. And surely, whenever two people who know first thing about snooker discuss the greatest players, Hendry's name must come up.
So - although he doesn't read this - I'd like to thank him sincerely for the priviledge of watching him in action and wish him good luck for the future. And if he ever decides to play an exhibition in Poland, may he know he has plenty of fans here.
- 11:26 pm
Also, Dave, a fantastic and classy post. Surely it wasn't easy to write, as you have always revered Hendry (and rightly so). Great piece (especially the last part) and, may I say, very SHREWD of you to describe him as "speechles by defeat"
- 11:30 pm
Actually he may have another record here which you might be able to confirm David. He will end his career ranked 21st in the world after the WC points are tallied, so will this make him the highest ranked player to retire from the modern game?
- 11:38 pm
Sorry to see him retire after enjoying some great play from him in the last few months- His performance against Neil Robertson in the Welsh was for me the best of the season. Like many other retired greats I will miss watching him play.
- 12:14 am
best player to pick up a cue ever, wish him all the very best for the future.
- 12:16 am
Great post and comments. My earliest memories of being into sport were growing up, watching Snooker during the 90's.
Although my passions lie elsewhere now, I still make time to watch Snooker every now and then and can honestly say I'm devastated. He will always be considered among the greats!
- 12:24 am
The best player that we've seen. It is entirely possible the best player to ever pick up a cue was just in a shop one day, and then put it down again. It is possible there are aliens on some distant planet who have started playing snooker, and have superior hand and eye co-ordination. Let's think this through before getting carried away with all the soundbites.
- 12:33 am
ill be seeing the legend play at Goffs Ireland at snooker legends and hope to get a photo,,He is the best ever and everyone knows it,but it is a thin line between him and Steve Davis.. I hated hendry in the 90s for constantly beating white but he was awesome..not everyone may agree but one of my greatest memories was when Hendry got a 147 at the liverpool victoria tournament. He was something like 9-2 up against o sullivan and ronnie can back to level at 9-9. Then hendry knocked in a max to win match and tournament. amazing
- 2:13 am
What a miserable day this is turning out to be. If only his will to fight could match his own high demands and expectations we wouldn't be witness to this.
Snookerwise, this is the saddest news I have ever heard (not counting Paul Hunter etc.).
I will cling to hope that he regrets but it seems to be a very final decision.... I am officially bummed out.
- 5:54 am
The King is dead, long live....well no-one, as Hendry is irreplaceable. Thanks for the memories Stephen.
- 7:28 am
As often a very good piece again...though I still regret his decision to retire.
Allow me to plug a link to an article I read some years ago in the Guardian...http://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/blog/2008/oct/17/snooker
Sums it up really..."Balls the size of Elgin Marbles"
To quote someone else "truer words have ne'er been spoken".
Glory is temporary, class is eternal. The king has retired, long live the King!

you are my hendo
super hendo
you make me happy, when skies are grey....

Anonymous at 9.17, do you mean Stephen or Dave?
- 11:30 am
What I can't understand is why he's going to represent China POOL!! Surely he can't be short of money or has the ongoing financial crisis eaten away at his fortune?
I love snooker but all this getting into bed with STILL communist states makes me very uneasy.

Hi David. Sad to see Hendry retire, but thanks, from me, to him for all the memories.
A stat of the day, for yesterday, May 1st, 2012. Stephen Hendry retires.
Sad but understandable, his reasons
John Higgins once said, " Steve Davis love snooker. Stephen Hendry loves winning." How true.
Much more to come from me, over years to come, about this story.
Stephen Hendry M.B.E. - Snooker Legend.
- 1:45 pm
Didn't Hendry invest most of his money in 110 Sport? He may well have some money problems after that went down the swanny. It seems to me pool players have longer careers, so it surprises me more of them don't do what Allison Fisher did and convert to pool in their late 30s. By 2009/10 it was becoming increasingly unlikely that Hendry would win another title, and these players could have another ten years of a viable cue sport career.
- 2:17 pm

Dave, I came to the party late, so I never got to experience the thrill of watching Jimmy White and Stephen Hendry in their prime, but your two posts put their excellence and appeal into perspective without becoming fulsome. (Although one could argue it's not possible to overpraise Hendry's accomplishments.)
- 6:04 pm
mat wilson - racist
- 9:41 pm
He was a share holder in 110 sport and Stephen Hendry Snooker was wound up in 2011 because of £85k in tax owed- so who knows how much cash to hand he has. Old cliche perhaps asset rich- big house etc cash poor?
- 10:15 pm
Don't be daft, me great-Grandad was a communist. You can't be racist against political systems. That was a very poor post. I'd advise a course in critical thinking skills before trying again:-)
Mat Wilson
- 11:53 pm
Mat wilson shpould go back to school. China has been a capitalist country for 3 decades now. There is more government intervention than Western countries but thats no harm- Pity Britain didnt have more, there'd be no need for all this austerity now.
Is Wilson really suggesting that Hendry is doing something wrong by accepting a lucrative offer from snookers largest growth area because he (Wilson) disagrees with the political system there.
Im sure Hendry will cancel his retirement when he sees that post. lol
- 11:14 am
- Toestubber said...
Ah, so China is a capitalist country now is it? Maybe for the few but for the vast majority it is a slave state. Any country which espouses capitalist doctrine when a one-party state is a Fascist entity. So I got it wrong it is a Fascist state, so that makes it okay then having 99% of the population living on ~$2 a day when someone who is good at hitting a ball with a piece of wood makes millions?
- 11:55 am
Don't be daft, me great-Grandad was a communist. You can't be racist against political systems. That was a very poor post. I'd advise a course in critical thinking skills before trying again:-)

im not daft
i coulnt care less about your grandad.
your post was a negative post about a race, in general.
to me, thats racist. to many thats racist.
you may not think it is. youre entitled to that opinion, no matter how wrong it is.
- 12:09 pm
oh, well said 1114
- 12:10 pm
- Toestubber said...
12:09 anonymous
How was I criticising a race? Show me where please. I capitalized the word POOL as I am suprised that Stephen Hendry is promoting POOL. Criticising communism cannot in any way, shape or form cannot be construed as racism. I completely fail to understand how you can connect the two.
Mat Wilson
- 12:35 pm
china pool....getting into bed with communist states
i know you capitalised pool
had you not put in the word chinese then went on to call them a communist state, being negative about CHINA (just because you never capitalised it doesnt make the word invisable), was racist imho.
if it doesnt fir with you being called a racist, dont make slurs about countrys/ethnic groups slanting them all in general.
- 3:36 pm
- Toestubber said...
China pool is NOT a racist statement. Stephen Hendry said "China Pool" in his press conference. I was repeating what he said and emphasising the POOL element. Please DO NOT put words in my mouth.
China is a communist state, this is a statement of FACT. There are no ethnic/racial slurs in that statement whatsoever.
I didn't use the word Chinese anywhere in my post, stop putting words in my mouth, please.
There are no ethnic slurs in my post, stop putting words in my mouth.
Communist state does not equal Chinese race. Being that there is no Chinese race in the first place makes you look pretty silly.

i never put any words in your mouth
what i put, i copied from yours.
to me, your post was offensive and racist.
if you werent meaning to be either, thats fair enough, but i took it as that and imho it was racist.
- 9:04 pm
You are a clown of the highest order my fat friend.
- 11:18 pm
lol 1118, if i was fat id call you fattist.

Re suggestions he is short of money or whatever: factually he did let a company he used Stephen Hendry Snooker Limited get wound up over what in his pomp would have been perhaps 5% of his yearly income- 85k and he did have more than a small shareholding in 110 sport but Sunday Times sport rich list has him worth £10 million
- 10:55 pm
Hi David. 7 times world champion. 6 times London Masters, and 5 times U.K. Champion. Many more great things. The ovation he got last night, was superb. Deserved, and got me emotional, watching, and recording, as I was, from home.
- 4:02 pm
Stephen has statistically been the best player yet, but ever? That's a long time and it's unrealistic to compare eras. Nevertheless, I hope he enjoyes his retirement; he's done his bit
- 10:33 pm
Where on Earth has this myth come from that Stephen Hendry is statistically the best ever? Probably a myth spread about by bloggers seeking to portrey opinion as fact. Joe Davis has won more world titles, so have others, also Steve Davis has more professional titles to his name. These aren't opinions they are simple facts. Please Dave spare us the sententious hogwash of the "unparalleled" career of Hendry, there is enough of that kind of stuff around the internet already. Hendry was the best in the 90's, that much is clear and there happened to be a whole lot of money and tournaments swishing around in that era too which would automatically magnify his achievements; where exactly his achievements stand relative to others from different eras is unclear and always subjective.

The Android 4.0.4, Ice Cream Sandwich upgrade will be rolling out for the Motorola Droid Razr and Razr Maxx around June 12, according to a recent report from CNET.
The site also stated that Ice Cream Sandwich could have been available on the Droid Razr as early as last month, but was delayed due to a change in servers that send out the update from Android 4.0.3 to Android 4.0.4.
Motorola released an updated timetable last month that showed a Q2 update for the Motorola Droid Razr, and a June 12 roll out matches up well with that report.
The company also announced when it would roll out updates for some of its other tablets and smartphones in that timetable including the Droid Xyboard 8.2, 10.1, the XOOM WiFi + 3G MZ600, the Atrix 2, the Atrix 4G MB860, Droid 4, Droid Bionic and the Motorola XOOM Family Edition.
The Ice Cream Sandwich update for the Droid Xyboard models will roll out in the early part of the third quarter of 2012.
The update for the XOOM WiFi and 3G MZ600 model will begin rolling out in the second quarter.
Both the Atrix 2 and the Atrix 4G will get Ice Cream Sandwich in the third quarter of 2012. The Droid 4 will receive it around that same time along with the Droid Bionic.
ICS will come to the XOOM family edition in the third quarter as well.
Some of these dates are subject to change due to Google's purchase of Motorola Mobility. However, many fans will be happy to see that the company has finally revealed the dates for the software upgrade since many Android device owners have been waiting a long time for Android 4.0.

University of Vermont
2011-12 Online Catalogue
CESS Degree Requirements
Students must meet standards and requirements for each program approved by the College Academic Affairs Committee, the College faculty, the Dean, and the University Academic Affairs Committee. All programs nationally accredited meet the standards of their professional group: Social Work by the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE); Teacher Education programs (Art, Early Childhood Education, Early Childhood Special Education, Elementary, Middle Level, Music, Physical Education and Secondary Education) by the Vermont State Department of Education and by the National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE).
Copies of the degree requirements for each program are available in our CESS Student Services Office (528 Waterman) and are also provided to students during Orientation sessions.
Students receive an Orientation Advising Packet which explains how the requirements can be fulfilled during a four-year period. Discussions with advisors provide students with information needed to plan the time span for program completion that meets their needs. Students who enroll in the College of Education and Social Services are expected to become very familiar with the degree requirements for their programs.
All students are required to fulfill the University Diversity requirements through their CESS programs.
Criminal Record Check (CRC) Requirement
Students who matriculate in the College of Education and Social Services should expect to complete a Criminal Record Check (CRC) as a prerequisite for working in schools and agencies. Evidence of a Criminal Record may prevent students from being eligible to fulfill the field placement/teaching internship requirement.
Human Development and Family Studies and Social Work majors may be required by individual agencies to complete the CRC to be eligible for an internship in a specific agency. It is also important to note that membership in professional associations upon graduation, at least in the case of most social work organizations, typically requires a criminal background check as does employment in an ever-increasing number of human service agencies.
Students enrolled in the Teacher Education programs are required to complete the CRC to be eligible for the public school teaching internship and may also be required to complete the CRC during the first-year, sophomore and junior years. Each individual school makes the determination concerning the first-year, sophomore and junior experiences, but it is a State requirement that all students complete the CRC for eligibility to student teach.
The cost for fingerprints and FBI processing is covered by each individual student and is subject to change.
Disciplinary Action Related to Academic Performance
Disciplinary actions, such as placement on trial, disenrollment, or dismissal are designed to encourage high level academic work from students. The CESS guidelines are more stringent than those for the University. Students, including first-year and new transfer students, can be dismissed without first being placed on trial.
A student is subject to academic disciplinary action, including dismissal from the University, if (a) his or her semester or cumulative average falls below 2.0; or (b) if he or she has failed six or more credits of course work in a given semester. This includes first-year and new transfer students.
A student who has a cumulative grade-point average of 2.0 or higher, but too low to meet specific program requirements, will be warned of pending disenrollment. Also, students who do not follow course requirements or who have not earned an appropriate grade point average for their program will be warned of pending disenrollment. If at the end of two subsequent semesters the student has failed to meet the requirements (courses and/or GPA) of his/her program, he/she will be disenrolled from the College.
Students who are placed on trial rather than being dismissed and who do not meet the conditions of trial will then be dismissed.
Students with "on-trial" status will not be allowed to participate in their senior internship, and they will not be eligible to graduate unless they successfully appeal to the CESS Student Affairs Committee.

VIDEO: LeBron speaks at Friday's All-Star Media Day
NEW ORLEANS — LeBron James wasn't backing away from his Mt. Rushmore comments that stirred up a fuss. The other day he told Steve Smith on NBA TV that he hoped to one day knock either Larry Bird, Magic Johnson, Michael Jordan or Oscar Robertson off and claim his own spot.
But he did offer a creative solution.
"It's hard to knock anybody off," James said at the NBA All-Star Media Day. "There needs to be another mountain built. I mean there's too many guys.
"Kareem (Abdul-Jabbar) and Kobe (Bryant) were two guys that came to my mind, too. I definitely was thinking about Kobe as a top four of all-time. Kareem, for sure. There are so many greats that played this game."
Give the four-time MVP credit. He also didn't back down from his stated goal of becoming known as the greatest player of all time.
"There's no reason I couldn't be No. 1," he said. "That's my goal. That's my personal goal.
"Anytime I bring up a subject or answer a question, guys like to dissect it and make it bigger or smaller than what it is.
"My personal goal is to be the greatest of all time. I don't really care what other people say, where they put me, how they define me. You could have a poll of 100 people, what do they think, that's not for me to care about. For me, I have an opportunity to maximize my career and be the greatest of all time. I feel like I can do that. That's my personal goal."
It's the fishbowl world that James lives in. Most of the time we hear athletes dance around questions, never put themselves out there on the line with an honest answer. Then LeBron steps up to the line with a direct response and he gets whipped from some corners for it.
What's wrong with a 29-year-old who is already a 10-time All-Star, with an armload of individual awards, two championships and four NBA Finals appearances saying that he wants and expects the most out of himself? He didn't disparage anyone. If anything, he simply put more pressure on himself to perform and deliver.
James sat for 30 minutes before a horde of TV cameras, microphones and notebooks and was engaging with every answer on Friday.
He was told that when Kevin Durant was asked, on a scale of 1 to 10, how much does he dislike being compared to James, K.D. said 25.
"I don't mind," James said. "You're always gonna be linked to somebody. Early in my career I was linked to Kobe. Now I'm linked to K.D. You're always gonna be linked to somebody. It's how you handle it. I don't get caught up in it.
"I don't think I'm compared to him. They just talk about the two best players in the game and which one is better. Which one can score better? Who's the MVP? Who's gonna win the next championship? They don't ever compare our games too much. We're two different players."
He was asked about his 36-point, 13-rebound, nine-assist game when he nailed down a 111-110 win at Golden State with a 3-pointer to beat the horn.
"I just had a conversation with Steph Curry," James said. "He talked to me about what I was doing. I asked him what was he doing shooting all them step-back 3s in the third quarter. The hesitation on Rio [Mario Chalmers] and going for the and-1. It's great to be around your peers. People recognize what others are doing throughout the NBA season. I'm happy I was able to put on a performance right before All-Star to be fresh on guys' minds."
Then James was asked if his proclivity in the last couple of years to step up big late in games was the result of any work with a psychologist.
He grinned.
"Yeah, I work with a psychologist," LeBron said. "Her name is Spalding. She goes into the rim and that's what happens."

The Centers for Disease Control has an interactive "flu surveillance report" on its website. It's a map of the U.S., with each state color-coded to reflect its number of reported influenza cases.
The Centers for Disease Control has an interactive "flu surveillance report" on its website. It's a map of the U.S., with each state color-coded to reflect its number of reported influenza cases.
Alabama is one of five states colored red — the highest possible activity level. According to the Alabama Department of Public Health, three different strains have been reported in the state.
Putting it bluntly, the flu season is here — it's been nearly a decade since it arrived so early — and it's hitting people hard.
Hospitals, doctors' offices and walk-in clinics throughout this part of the state reportedly are doing a brisk business. We're sure folks are hearing reports of co-workers, friends and family members who have "got that flu bug that's going around."
Usually, after a few days of making its victims feel like a football kicked by the Alabama Crimson Tide and Georgia Bulldogs in last weekend's SEC Championship Game, the flu will run its course.
However, it can be a killer for the elderly, for babies, for anyone with a weakened constitution from health issues. About 24,000 Americans die each year from the flu, according to the CDC. That figure doubled in 2003-04, the last time the flu season started so early, and the major strain circulating then was the same one that's hammering people now.
The CDC recommends that everyone 6 months or older be vaccinated against the flu, and about a third of the U.S. population has done that. We hope more people, here and elsewhere, will follow their lead, and quickly since it takes a couple of weeks for immunity to develop.
We realize no one likes needles, we've heard the argument that "you still can get the flu even if you get vaccinated" and we realize the shot carries a price tag some might have trouble paying.
What's preferable — a momentary needle stab or a high fever, runny nose, cough, sore throat, chills, muscle aches, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea?
Health officials are confident this year's vaccine is dialed in on the right strains, so if its effectiveness is a gamble, we think it's worth a shot.
And the vaccine, which is widely available, will cost much less than a doctor's visit paired with multiple prescriptions.
Regardless of your decision about the vaccine, remember the drill for not spreading germs — properly dispose of used tissues, cough or sneeze into your upper sleeve or elbow if you're tissue-less, wash or sanitize your hands often, stay away from people who are sick and if you're sick, keep your germs at home.
Flu season is inherently bad. Don't make it worse.

Car Deals
Minivan Deals: September 2012
While it's hard to choose the right minivan, our latest list makes it easier to find the best deal. We've rounded up September minivan deals from several manufacturers, arming buyers with all the information necessary to get a great deal on a new van this month.
Chrysler Town & Country
Through the end of September, Chrysler is advertising its popular Town & Country minivan with interest rates as low as zero percent for up to 72 months--an offer that's virtually unmatched among rivals. For shoppers who prefer to lease the minivan, Chrysler is touting payments of just $299 per month for 39 months after $2,999 at signing on the luxurious Touring trim level, which includes a rear DVD player, a backup camera and a power liftgate. The automaker is also offering up to $2,250 back for cash buyers who purchase the van, regardless of which trim level they choose.
Honda Odyssey
Honda is offering several deals on its popular Odyssey minivan through the end of September. According to the automaker, shoppers interested in leasing a base-level Odyssey LX can do so for 36 months with payments of just $259 after $1,999 due at signing. Lease customers who would prefer to put nothing down will also get a good deal, as Honda is touting zero-down lease deals with monthly payments of just $310 on the Odyssey LX. Honda also has incentives for shoppers looking to finance an Odyssey, with the automaker offering 0.9 percent interest to qualified shoppers for up to 60 months.
Kia Sedona
The Kia Sedona is unlikely to see the 2013 model year, which means that there are many great deals available on remaining 2012 models. Kia's strongest offer is a $2,500 cash-back incentive for buyers paying in full, which applies to both of the minivan's trim levels. The automaker is also advertising a rare combined incentive, touting 1.9 percent interest for up to 36 months plus up to $2,500 back for qualified buyers interested in financing the minivan. Finally, Kia is offering up to $1,500 loyalty cash for buyers trading in another Kia, or the same amount for shoppers trading in a minivan from a competitive brand.
Toyota Sienna
Toyota is offering several attractive incentives on its Sienna minivan this month. The best deal is for buyers looking to finance the Sienna, as Toyota is offering zero percent interest for up to 48 months or 0.9 percent interest for up to 60 months on all 2012 models. For shoppers interested in leasing the van, Toyota is also offering monthly payments as low as $279 for 36 months after $2,999 down, which makes the van highly competitive with rivals. Toyota is offering up to $1,000 cash back on all versions of the 2012 Sienna for buyers paying in full--a relatively small number but a rare rebate among Toyota's models.
Volkswagen Routan
Volkswagen's spacious Routan minivan is mechanically identical to the Dodge Grand Caravan and Chrysler Town & Country. Like those vans, the Routan is available with several good deals throughout September, including interest rates as low as zero percent for up to 72 months. Volkswagen is also offering an attractive lease deal of just $249 per month for 36 months after $2,999 at signing on its base-level Routan S. While that model doesn't include many luxury features, it has all the family car basics, including curtain side airbags, rear climate control, an antiskid system and an adequate 3.8-liter V6 that returns around 20 miles per gallon in combined city and highway driving.

G857, Reviewed December 1995
The U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has issued final rules governing the protection of employees on farms and in forests, nurseries and greenhouses from occupational exposure to agricultural pesticides. The new Worker Protection Standard (WPS) covers two types of employees:
Employers are responsible for making sure that workers and handlers receive the protections required by the pesticide labeling and the WPS. The standard defines two types of employers:
These additional definitions will help you determine whether you are affected by the Worker Protection Standard and will help you understand the standard.
This publication provides a general overview of specific duties that employers of handlers and workers must perform to be in compliance with the standard. It is important to note that there is a difference between how workers and handlers are regulated under the WPS. Depending on the tasks being performed, you may need to provide the same employee (including yourself) with worker protection on some occasions and pesticide handler protection on other occasions.
The WPS covers pesticides that are used in the production of agricultural plants on farms and in forests, nurseries and greenhouses. Both general-use and restricted-use pesticides are covered by the WPS. The WPS does NOT cover pesticides applied:
Some of the WPS requirements with which employers must comply are really the same whether the employees are workers or handlers. Following are descriptions of some requirements.
Information at a central locationFor the benefit of all employees, information must be posted at an easily seen, central location on each agricultural establishment (for example, on the farm, not at the retailer dealer or custom applicator location). This information includes:
Workers and handlers must be told where the information is posted and allowed access to it. They also must be told of emergency facility information changes. Furthermore, the posted information must be kept legible and current.
Pesticide safety trainingUnless the workers or handlers are certified applicators or possess a valid EPA-approved training card, they must be trained. Handlers must be trained before they begin work and at least once each five years. Workers, however, must be trained by the sixth day (16th day until October 1997) of entering an area that has been treated or has been under an REI in the last 30 days.
Training may be conducted by a certified applicator or by someone who has completed a train-the-trainer program. The training must be presented orally, from written materials or audiovisually. The training must be conducted in a manner and language that the employees can understand, using easily understood terms; the trainer must be able to respond to questions.
Decontamination siteEmployers must provide a site where workers and handlers can wash pesticides and residue from their hands and body. A decontamination site should supply:
Water for emergency eye flushes must be immediately available if the pesticide label calls for protective eye wear.
Employers also must provide water that is safe and cool enough for washing, eye flushing and drinking. Employers may not use tank-stored water that also is used for mixing pesticides.
A decontamination site must be within one-fourth mile of the employees' work site. If the work site is more than one-fourth mile from the nearest point of vehicular access, the decontamination site may be located at the nearest access point.
Employers must provide handlers with the previously mentioned supplies at each mixing site and at the place where personal protective equipment is removed at the end of a task. Worker decontamination sites may not be in areas being treated or under an REI. Handler decontamination sites may be in the treated area in which the handler is working, as long as the materials are stored in enclosed containers.
An agricultural employer must be informed when a pesticide is to be applied on his/her agricultural establishment by a commercial applicator. The agricultural employer is responsible for providing all WPS protections to his or her employees, including oral notification or posting, training, decontamination and emergency assistance. The commercial handler's employer must provide the agricultural employer with the following information:
Operators of agricultural establishments must make sure that the commercial pesticide applicator and his or her employer are aware of all areas on the establishment where pesticides will be applied and where an REI may be in effect while the commercial handler is on the establishment, and of any restrictions on entering those areas.
Emergency assistanceWhen there is any possibility that any handler or worker has been poisoned or injured by pesticides, an employer must promptly make transportation available to an appropriate medical facility. Additionally, upon request, the employer must provide to the victim and medical personnel the following information:
Restrictions during applicationIn areas being treated with pesticides, allow entry only to appropriately trained and equipped handlers. Keep nursery workers at least 100 feet away from nursery areas being treated. Allow only handlers in greenhouses during pesticide application and until air concentration levels listed on the label are met or, if there is no such level, until the area has been fan-ventilated for at least two hours.
Restricted-entry intervalsAs stated earlier, the REI is the time immediately after a pesticide application when entry into the treated area is limited. The interval is based on the most toxic active ingredient in the pesticide. The restricted-entry intervals should be listed on the label as follows:
Other REIs may apply. Follow the REI on the label. During an REI, do not allow workers to enter a treated area or contact anything treated with the pesticide to which the REI applies.
Notice about applicationsEmployers must notify workers about pesticide applications on the establishment. In most cases, employers may choose between oral warnings or posted warning signs, but they must tell workers which warning method is in effect. For some pesticides, however, employers have to do both. Pesticides requiring both oral and posted warnings will state this on the label.
Posted warning signs must be:
Oral warnings must be delivered in a manner understood by workers, using an interpreter if necessary. Oral warnings must contain the following information:
Application restrictions and monitoringEmployers must not allow handlers to apply a pesticide so that it contacts anyone, directly or through drift, other than trained and properly equipped handlers. Employers also must make visual or voice contact at least every two hours with anyone handling pesticides labeled with a skull and crossbones (signal word: Danger — Poison). In addition, the employer must make sure that a trained handler equipped with label-specific personal protective equipment maintains constant visual or voice contact with any handler in a greenhouse who is performing fumigant-related tasks such as applications or air level monitoring.
Specific instructions for handlersEmployers must inform handlers of all pesticide labeling instructions for safe use before they perform any handling tasks. In addition, employers must keep pesticide labels accessible to each handler during the entire handling task and inform handlers of how to use any assigned handling equipment safely before they use it. When commercial handlers will be on an agricultural establishment, the employer must inform them beforehand of areas on the establishment where pesticides will be applied or where an REI will be in effect, and of any entry restrictions on these areas.
Equipment safetyEmployers of handlers must make sure that equipment used for mixing, loading, transferring or applying pesticides is inspected and repaired or replaced as needed.
Only appropriately trained and equipped handlers may repair, clean or adjust pesticide handling equipment that contains pesticides or pesticide residues.
Personal protective equipment (PPE)Employers must provide handlers with the PPE required for the task by the pesticide labeling and be sure it is clean, in operating condition, worn and used correctly, inspected before each day of use, and repaired or replaced as needed. In addition, employers must ensure that respirators fit correctly, and they must take steps to prevent heat illness. Employers must provide handlers with a pesticide-free work area for storing personal clothing not in use, putting on PPE at the start of the task and taking off PPE at the end of each task. They must not allow any handler to wear or take home any PPE used for handling activities.
Cleaning PPEThe employer must make sure that:
Replacing respirator purifying elementsDust/mist filters must be replaced when breathing becomes difficult, if the filter is damaged or torn, when respirator label or pesticide label requires it, or at the end of each day's work period in the absence of any other instructions or indications. Vapor-removing cartridges or canisters must be replaced when odor, taste or irritation is noticed, when respirator label or pesticide label requires it, or at the end of each day's work period in the absence of any other instructions or indications.
Disposal of PPECoveralls and other clothing that are heavily contaminated with an undiluted pesticide having a DANGER or WARNING signal word must be discarded. Federal, state and local laws must be adhered to when disposing of PPE that cannot be cleaned correctly.
Instructions for people who clean PPEEmployers must inform people who clean or launder PPE that it may be contaminated with pesticides. They must inform them of the potentially harmful effects of exposure to pesticides and show them how to protect themselves and how to clean PPE correctly.
