Northern Arizona University is a public university offering undergraduate, graduate, and professional degrees of high quality and societal value. As a student, you are at the center of the NAU experience, which is guided by a dedicated and distinguished faculty committed to teaching, individual engagement, and research excellence.
I would like to take a moment to welcome you to Northern Arizona University. Whether you are simply passing through our web pages, planning a visit or catching up on news about the university, your interest is important to us.
I continue to marvel at the vibrancy of this beautiful campus and the energy flowing from our students, faculty and staff. A strong sense of community weaves together our diverse population at NAU. We are immersed in the local culture of Flagstaff while experiencing an infusion of global perspectives from international students. Most of us quickly understand why it's easy to call this place home.
Everything we do at NAU is oriented to student success. A comprehensive network of advisers, peers and coaches, through a variety of programs, complement our talented and dedicated faculty in supporting students of all backgrounds. Our commitment to inclusiveness and a supportive academic community has made it a preferred destination for non-traditional and underrepresented students who are taking the big step of pursuing a university education.
Another role of a major university is to engage in wide-ranging research. NAU faculty contribute to biomedical advances, answer important questions in earth sciences and investigate asteroids—of course, those are merely a few examples. And even in research we open doors to undergraduates, who contribute in labs across campus, as well as in the field.
Involvement is a theme found throughout the NAU experience. In the arts and theater, athletics and student activities, there is always something happening and opportunities abound to participate actively or as a spectator.

This prestigious conference covering next generation broadband networks and all-things mobile starts on Monday at McCormick Place. Over 8000 registered attendees are expected.
Groupon Founder and CEO, Andrew Mason, chats about the 30-50 people added to Groupon's roster every month and invites any engineers that 'are good' to join the movement.
The keynote lasts 58 minutes and includes Groupon's evolution from ThePoint to becoming a powerhouse of over 500 employees.
Lunch Keynote Interview with Andrew Mason, CEO, Groupon from SocialDevCamp Chicago on Vimeo.
At SocialDevCamp Chicago, I caught up with Jason Goodrich. Jason is one of the people behind A Space Apart, an app that aims to connect people in intimate spaces. Part deal finder part connector, A Space Apart joins a sea of location specific tools. Will I use ASA at a bar? Not sure. Would I play with the app at a conference? Yes. Here's how my chat went with Jason.
CTR: How long has ASA been around?
JG: The concept was born in spring of 2009. Development started in September, and we incorporated in Jan. of 2010. We just launched the mobile platform in August at SocialDevCamp Chicago. People were so excited by the possibilities of connecting everyone at the event.
CTR: How many people are working on the app?
JG: Four people, including myself, plus a three-person advisory board. I'm looking to expand both groups.
CTR: So you're hiring. Which specific positions?
JG: I'm looking for a kick ass Django/Python engineer, a mobile engineer, a graphic designer with programming experience, and sales and marketing folks. We're getting ready to rumble!
CTR: What challenge does your product solve?
JG: For individuals, it answers questions like: "Who's here? What's going on? What's there to do?" Then it enables them to engage others—including businesses and organizers—in more relevant ways. We're finding that when people share public-facing information in an environment where everyone has buy-in to be there, their curiosity gets the better of them and they interact more, spend more time and money there. It can seed real community.
For businesses, it connects them with their customers like never before. They become more important social and business hubs by being more engaged in the conversations surrounding their business and empowering customers to get what they want. Business owners profit from increased traffic and sales. We're helping them build their business through direct, sustained customer engagement.
CTR: Who uses A Space Apart?
JG: Right now we're focusing on business and networking events, so mostly attendees of conferences and meetups. We get a lot of crucial feedback from a large number of people very quickly this way. It's perfect for getting to know people at networking events. Our proof of concept, however, was conducted in an environment we expect to make up the bulk of our users: the places we go every day such as cafes, restaurants, bars, schools, even workplaces. A Space Apart is made for any place people gather for a purpose.
CTR: How have you gotten the word out?
JG: So far, we've just used word of mouth. Since we're still in beta stage, we don't need or want to shout from the rooftops. Not yet. I think building reputation slowly at first will pay off in other people shouting from their network rooftops at the right time.
CTR: What makes you awesome?
JG: Ha! OK, I think what makes A Space Apart awesome is that it's useful and relevant. It helps them navigate and expand their world with local knowledge. It acts as that magic remote control we all wish we had whenever we go someplace. It's awesome because it starts with the individual and their needs—including privacy and respect. It's awesome because it gives businesses an instant online presence with the people who matter most to them: their loyal and potentially loyal customers; They will do all the work of creating new loyal customers.
CTR: What are your thoughts in basing your business in Chicago?
JG: I live here, first off. Second, my business can be based anywhere, so why not the third largest American city? The Midwest is a great barometer for consumer tastes and trends, not to mention social commerce innovation. Groupon, Orbitz, 37 Signals, Threadless...I like the company we're in. I think Chicago is vastly underrated right now, but that won't last long. For now we can over-deliver and build steam. From my vantage point, we don't seem to be lacking for much, if you know where to look.
CTR: What are your favorite Chicago startups or events?
JG: Man, so many awesome ones now. The companies I mentioned earlier, plus Sprout Social, which helps small businesses manage their social media efforts;ScaleWell is a great example of the new ethos of crowd-supporting scalable businesses; Foodie Registry replaces the chafing dish as wedding "gift" with a culinary experience that extends the couple's honeymoon.
For events, I think midventuresLAUNCH on Sept. 27-28 is going to introduce a lot of people to the real power of Midwest startups. A Space Apart will play a big role connecting the 3,000 attendees before and during the event, which is incredibly exciting; SocialDevCamp Chicago continues to set the pace for relevant tech events in Chicago; ChicagoTechMeetup has something like 700 members of really driven techies. If they can host at least once a quarter, it will keep fostering community and more ideas. And, of course, TechCocktail continues to engage new and veteran players. Frank (Gruber) and Eric's (Olsen) homegrown tech party just went worldwide. That's impressive.
CTR: What would you like readers to walk away with?
JG: Ask yourself: What would I do with a magic remote control in the places I go? Then send your answers to me at email@example.com. I'll get the genie right on it!
CTR: Thanks for chatting, Jason!
JG: Back at you, Blagica! Thanks.
CTR is about sharing the stories behind the ideas, technology and talent that combine in one lovely mosh pit of Chicago's growing entrepreneurial scene.
I'd like to introduce you to one of the latest additions to the talent pool - Evan Estola. Evan is a recent graduate of IIT and was recently hired at my alma mater, Orbitz.
CTR: How did you like your time at IIT? Was it useful to what you do today?
EE: Many of my classmates loved to complain about IIT, but I think most of them would hate it anywhere. My overall college experience was great. The professors were smart and friendly, and the school is small, so you can really get a lot out of them if you work for it. No major complaints, although I must admit that several of my favorite professors are gone now.
I got a job right out of school so I would say that it was definitely useful. I'm hoping I get the chance to apply knowledge from some of the more specialized classes in the future.
CTR: What was one of the most useful classes you took at IIT? Did you have the chance to work on any side projects?
EE: The best class I took at IIT was Information Retrieval. I learned about not only search engines but the theory, math, and algorithms behind them. Dealing with large data sets and calculations that actually take time to complete really changed the way I look at many different problems. It was also the toughest programming class I ever took. Outside of class I worked for the Information Retrieval Lab at IIT. I also spent a summer working on comparing and analyzing DNA sequences with a tool called the W-Curve for the Bioinformatics Lab.
CTR: What are your thoughts on being an engineer in Chicago? Why did you stay?
EE: I stayed in Chicago because I could! I love this city. I love the lake, and the seasons, and the people. Parts of Chicago still remind me of the small Midwestern towns I grew up in, but then you have all of the diversity and opportunity of a major city. There are a lot of technology groups and conferences in the city as well. The only problem I have with the technology community in Chicago is that it's still very geeky. It's almost like you aren't accepted in some crowds unless you're socially awkward. Is it like that everywhere? Does everyone hate me now? Am I even allowed to ask questions?
CTR: If you wanted to build a start up, would you move West?
EE: There are enough resources and talented people here in Chicago. Plus, I was in California once and it was 60 degrees and raining and they were closing up stores because of the 'Winter Storm'. I don't think I could live there. Do they have technology in Canada?
CTR: I was happy to hear you are at Orbitz, my old stomping grounds. Tell me about what you do there.
EE: I work on the Hotel Content team. Any non-booking related information you see about a hotel on one of our sites goes through my team's code. I get to use my skills in technology like Linux and relational databases, and I've gained experience with application frameworks, content management systems, and other enterprise-scale tools.
CTR: Are you involved in any engineering groups in the city?
EE: I'm going to my first meeting of the Chicago Machine Learning Study Group tonight! I've spent time with a bunch of different groups but nothing has stuck yet.
We are looking forward to seeing how Evan's career progresses. Good luck, EE!
Evan is not a spokesperson for Orbitz Worldwide and the opinions and views expressed in the interview are his and not those of Orbitz Worldwide

The Montgomery County community is invited to attend the upcoming free one-hour family concert of Handel's Messiah given by the Crawfordsville Community Chorus at 7 p.m. December 12 in the Pioneer Chapel at Wabash College.
The 40 town-gown singers will be accompanied by a 20-piece chamber orchestra — all conducted by Chorus musical director Dr. Richard Bowen.
Words of the Christmas portion of Handel's oratorio are King James Bible Old Testament texts from Isaiah, Haggai, Zechariah and Malachi and from Matthew, Luke and Revelation in the New Testament.
The bass soloist is visiting professional singer and Crawfordsville native Randal Turner of Zurich, Switzerland. Dan Booher will sing the tenor solos. Abby Gillan and Carol Airey Bandy will perform soprano and alto recitatives and arias. The orchestra will play the Pastoral Symphony.
Director Dr. Bowen is inviting members of the congregation to participate in singing the final Hallelujah Chorus; copies of the score will be available in the lobby.
A reception will follow the music in Baxter Hall, immediately east of the Chapel.
Cheryl Everett, accompanist of the Wabash College Glee Club, will play the Roland C-30 Digital Harpsichord for this year's concert.
During the Baroque Period, the harpsichord was the keyboard instrument that colored music with its rich, distinctive tone. While reproducing authentically exquisite centuries-old harpsichord sounds, this new invention allows more expressiveness of tone.
While Everett will use its Baroque sounds, she will have available a damper pedal to control resonance, and will be able to achieve legato tone.
Everett is adjunct instructor of piano and organ at Wabash and has taught in the Crawfordsville community for 30 years.
In addition to her college and private teaching, she has given solo performances in conjunction with international music workshops in Canada, England, France and Italy, and for Amalfi Coast Music Festivals. In 2005, she was chosen as a performer in the Teachers' Program of the 12th Van Cliburn International Piano Competition in Fort Worth, Texas.
Currently she chairs Young Hoosier State Piano Competitions for the Indiana State Fair.
Having been a church organist in the local community, she is currently serving at Christ United Methodist Church. In 1999, she was honored as "Teacher of the Year" by the Indiana Music Teachers' Association.
Guest vocalist Randal Turner began his musical studies at Interlochen Arts Academy in Michigan, and continued at Oberlin College Conservatory of Music and at Indiana University's Jacobs School of Music.
Turner made his North American stage debut this year as Don Giovanni with the Michigan Opera Theater in Detroit.
The Zurich-based singer has performed in opera houses throughout Europe, including Darmstadt, Linz, Monte Carlo, Milan and Torino, and has sung leading roles in many operas like The Barber of Seville, Pagliacci, Faust, and Falstaff.
He is noted for his Mozart roles and his interpretations of early music by Handel, Haydn and Bach. He is also performing in the Indianapolis Symphonic Choir's production of Messiah at Clowes Hall on the Butler University campus.

Environmental Expert (US): Millions around the world will unite to combat climate change for World Environment Day 2009, says UNEP
This year's theme is 'Your Planet needs You! Unite to combat climate change' - a topic that reflects everyone's individual responsibility to protect the planet, as well as the urgency for nations to agree on a new climate change deal in December.
World Environment Day is truly a People's Day: it is the chance for everyone, young and old, with their community or with close friends, to show that they care for the planet.
This year's host is Mexico, reflecting the country's growing role in the fight against climate change - with its increasingly strong participation in global carbon markets, its massive tree planting campaigns and its natural resource management.
United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said: 'On this World Environment Day. I encourage all people to take concrete steps toward making the planet greener and cleaner. Switch off the lights. Take public transportation. Recycle. Plant a tree. Clean up your local park. Hold corporations responsible for their environmental practices. And urge your government representatives to Seal the Deal in Copenhagen.'
Achim Steiner, UN Under-Secretary-General and Executive Director of the United Nations Environment Programme, said: 'I am delighted that Mexico and its people will be the 2009 global hosts of the annual United nations celebrations on 5 June under the theme 'Your Planet Needs You! Unite to Combat Climate Change'. Mexico is among a group of nations showing real leadership on the challenges of our age - from climate change to bringing environmental goods and services into the mainstream of national and international economics.'
World Environment Day is a truly global event, and as such it will be celebrated on every continent - from remote villages to sprawling capitals. Here are some of the highlights of this year's celebration.
Celebrations in Mexico
Mexico, the host country, will organize a series of events in Quintana Roo, in the Yucatan Province. Highlights include a conference on the Green Economy with California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, Mexico's Environment Secretary Juan Elvira Quesada, and Achim Steiner, the Executive Director of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP).
There will also be photo exhibits, an art competition, a Maya 'Healing the Earth' ceremony, and a Symphonic Visual Concert entitled 'The Shield of Nature' by the Philharmonic Choir and World Heritage Orchestra.
'HOME' movie premieres around the world
The global premiere of the new film 'HOME', by world-renowned photographer Yann Arthus-Bertrand, will be one of the major worldwide events taking place for World Environment Day, with more than 100 locations around the world. Screenings - including star-studded premieres at the Eiffel Tower and in New York City's Central Park - will be free of charge, and the film will also be available for free download on YouTube.
Using the stunning aerial footage that is Arthus-Bertrand's trademark, the film - shot in more than 50 countries - makes an urgent appeal for our planet in peril and all its treasures, arguing that we have barely ten years left to reverse its destruction.
Climate Heroes
Another highlight of this year's WED is the launch of the Climate Heroes project. This UNEP initiative supports individuals who are undertaking exceptional personal feats, high-profile expeditions, and other acts of environmental activism to demonstrate their commitment and to raise awareness for the simple idea that 'Your Planet Needs You'.
The Climate Heroes include
- Roz Savage, who is rowing across the Pacific Ocean to inspire people to take action on CO2 levels by walking more and driving less;
- Charles and Sho Scott of Ride Japan, a father-and-son team cycling through Japan to raise environmental awareness;
- David de Rothschild, who is building a boat out of recycled plastic to cross the Pacific and visit the Pacific Garbage Patch and raise awareness of the gigantic problem of waste and overconsumption;
- And Project Kaisei, a team of innovators who are studying how to capture waste in the ocean, detoxify it, and recycle it into diesel fuel.
More Climate Heroes will come on board in the next few months.
North American celebrations in Omaha
Omaha (Nebraska) has been selected as North America's host city for WED 2009, in a reflection of the city's commitment to environmental and sustainability issues. During the period between Earth Day on 22 April and World Environment Day on 5 June, events throughout the community have been highlighting resources, initiatives and methods that promote low carbon economies and lifestyles, such as improved energy efficiency, alternative energy sources, forest conservation and eco-friendly consumption.
The city will also hold its own premiere of the film 'HOME', and youth events will include an award ceremony for the North American winners of the International Children's Painting Competition and an interactive environmental workshop for Omaha students.
Around the world
Thousands of other activities will take place around the world for WED - here is just a taste of some of the initiatives:
- Tree plantings around the world: WED 2009 will see a wave of tree planting around the planet as part of UNEP's Billion Tree Campaign, which aims to see 7 billion trees planted by the end of 2009. New partners who have recently come on board include the Scout Movement and the UN's Department of Peacekeeping Operations. Tree plantings will range from the massive to the local, with 20,000 mangroves to be planted in Keddah (Malaysia) as well as small-scale plantings by communities around the world, from Sierra Leone to India.
- Twitter campaign: UNEP will plant one tree for every person who follows its new Twitter page www.twitter.com/UNEPandYou by 5 June.
- Youth video conference: A videolink will unite youth across three continents - in Nairobi, New York, Panama and Vienna - to discuss their role in promoting awareness and actions on climate change.
- Russia: UNEP will sign a Memorandum of Understanding with the organizers of the 2014 Olympic Winter Games in Sochi, whereby UNEP will advise the Olympic organizers in their efforts to green the Games - including issues like sustainable transport, renewable energy, ecosystems management, and green procurement among others.
- Afghanistan: A neighbourhood clean-up will take place in Kabul on World Environment Day, along with a series of awareness-raising campaigns through schools and mosques.
- Bosnia and Herzegovina: In Sarajevo, the 'Run to the Hills' 10-km race will take runners from around Europe up the beautiful forested paths of the Olympic Mountains.
- Nepal: An 'Ecofootball' match entitled 'GOAL-against Climate Change' will bring together celebrities, politicians and environmentalists, with the aim of raising awareness on climate change and the need for a united response.
- Brazil: An online campaign will call online volunteers to produce, translate and disseminate information and advice on environmentally-friendly lifestyles.
- Kenya: A seafront clean-up will be organized on the island of Lamu with schoolchildren, students, community and government representatives.
- Belgium: The EchoFestival in Brussels's Royal Park will include a picnic, exhibits, a concert and a fair for a 'shared eco-cultural experience'.
- Republic of Korea: 30,000 children will take part in a painting competition on the environment.
World Environment Day 2009 comes just under 190 days before the UN climate convention meeting in Copenhagen. As millions of people around the world prepare to celebrate the event, and in the spirit of the WED slogan 'Unite to combat climate change', the UN has launched the Seal the Deal campaign to call for world leaders to agree on a climate change deal that will protect people and the planet.

German vintners and Germany's wine law have often been their own worst enemies, and consumers understandably bemoan the unintelligibility of the labels as well as the mediocre quality of so many commercial-grade wines. It is a shame if this situation acts as a barrier to appreciating some of the world's most distinctive and versatile wines. In fact, an excellent case can be made that no other class of wine offers the stylistic diversity, nuanced expression of site and climate, and versatility at the table of German Riesling. These German wines can be adamantly dry, off-dry, or downright sweet. German Reisling wines can be complex and satisfyingly complete at a mere 7% alcohol, yet can also avoid coming off as heavy at over 14%.
The tradition of Riesling excellence in Germany makes two important presuppositions over and beyond the talents of the individual vintner. First, in a generally cool environment incorporating Europe's northernmost significant vineyards, the microclimatic conditions of a given vineyard site--its exposure to the sun, shelter from wind, proximity to water, geological underpinnings, and other environmental factors--are of paramount importance. Second, to get the most out of Riesling's potential in a good site, the grapes in any given parcel are generally harvested in multiple passes, at times weeks apart, in a process that often involves the selection of particular bunches or occasionally even of individual berries. These factors explain why most of the best German Rieslings preserve their vineyard identity and are labeled to reflect this. They also reflect the many pickings of a given vineyard through labeling with different designations of descriptions or taste.

Take Me Out to the Ballgame-Renegade Style
I really love it when Mark Newman, our MLBlogs Professor gives us a " homework assignment" when most of Major League Baseball has an "off day". I have used this same JibJab system before to do videos during the season.
So when the Professor asked the MLBlogs.com community to make up their own MLB-based collage of personalities, you knew right off the cuff mine had to include the Rays Players Du Jour. I really love doing this kind of creative assembly, and hope to one day have enough skill and creative juices to mesh it into the perfect storm of stapled together videos.
Heck, I was a little disappointed when I first completed this video that I arranged the facial features where Rays ace David Price actually had a bat in his hand. But considering the video out there in YouTube-ville of him rounding the bases and doing cartwheels and somersaults, maybe it was the right decision in the end.
But there were a few dead on moments in this video. Watch carefully and you will see Ben Zobrist/Zorilla smash into the side walls and land with his body into the stands. Who can forget in 2009 when Zorilla actually came on over to the Renegade's section and paid an impromptu visit on a foul ball. It was like Deja Vu all over again.
Who in their right mind will forget the the 2010 Christmas card sent by those adorable Starting five of the Tampa Bay Rays by the clubhouse band The Pitch-Outs. I mean the video even included a happy Matt Garza before his trade to Chi-town. Always felt I should have included "Hellboy" (2011 5th starter Jeremy Hellickson) in it, but the Rookie had to earn some stripes first.
Little by little I am gathering more expertise and a bit more flair with my cut, paste and assembly, but we always know it can be better.Had to include my new found Fantasy pick Matt Joyce who is slugging the ball with authority, with confidence, and with increasing distance every night.
Seriously expecting Joyce to either put one in the Rays Tank, or bounce it off the Everglades BBQ Smokehouse roof before the 2011 season is completed. With Joyce presently leading the Majors in batting average (.377) which saw him advance his overall league lead by 27 points.
Cruising behind Joyce right now is a pair of Cardinals, Lance Berkman ( .350) and Matt Holliday (.349). With the Cardinals coming into Tropicana Field from July 1-3, that series could shape up into a showdown for Batting Average bragging rights before the All Star break.
And if you had to include an outfielder, how could I have omitted the man, the "Legend", Sam Fuld. Made sure he was the guy holding the glove at the beginning of the video since his catch of a screamer by Juan Pierre of the Chicago White Sox is going to be a discussion point for "best play" throughout the 2011 season. Only thing can could have made that video untouchable, if it resulted in a triple play.
What video featuring the ever unfolding cosmos of Rays rising stars would be complete with out a Longo (Evan Longoria) sighting. Ever since his Gillette video produced about 20 miles South of Tropicana Field at McKechnie Field in Bradenton, YouTube and blogger throughout the word want to debate, relate and investigate the video's truth, flaws and eventual controversy. Not since that guy in the Channelside District in Tampa, Florida stole his hat has Longo been such a media darling. Maybe that is why he had the AK-47…to protect from another cap theft.
Seriously, I had a blast popping this short video together that embodies even a slight slice of Americana of our beloved baseball classic "Take Me Out to the Ballgame". Truly loved how Jibjab used so many funny and interesting configurations to pull of a pleasant visual presentation, and the addition of the 2011 Rays Fab Five of Joyce, Longo, Fuld, Zorilla and last, but not least the heat-seeker Price.
Hope we can do this again some time this season, possibly around the All Star break when we can again all compile our favorite photos, maybe even a few of ourselves and put all of our great talents to work in a MLBlogs.com unison project. Do not know about you, but I got to hit replay and watch this video again….and again…..I think I am addicted to it now……Cool Beans!

Thanks Mark.
I was a blast creating it, and even more of a thrill to have Mark and MLBlogs.com's top dudes pop it on the Community Page. Going through a bit of a good streak with people noticing my writing, hopefully something will turn positive and I can reach an even bigger crowd some day…like I used to…
Still, I owe a huge debt of gratitude to this blogging community, and hope they know how humbled I am at times with their support.

This year, more than one dozen city streets are being rebuilt in Monticello, with new drainage infrastructure and road base. The goal, according to City officials, is an additional 30 years of life for the streets. The project was made possible by the City, the Community Impact Board and the San Juan County Transportation District.
The construction has resulted in disruption for the residents who live near the construction. However, the disruption has not been nearly as dramatic as the previous two summers, where infrastructure improvements and road paving closed off large portions of Monticello's Main and Center streets for much of the summer.
In addition to the road work, crews have been hard at work building a significant addition to the Pinto Substation east of Monticello.
Work continues on the construction of a new runway at the Monticello airport north of town. The new runway, on the east side of Highway 191, will eventually replace the current runway on the west side of the highway.

I resently reformatted my computer, as well as upgraded to barca 2.8.
Before i reformatted i backup my files to a new location on a second harddrive.
After the install of windows vista 64, i installed barca 2.8 and did a restore of my new backup.
I come back to my restore and i have lost about 10 months of inbox emails. BUT if i filed them in sub mail boxes or folders, those are all there from the last 10months.
Do you have to empty your inbox completely to do a proper backup? This is the second time this has happened the time before it was only a month lost or so...
When i back up i have all the check boxes "checked" and I created a new folder for the barca back up to go in, not to overwrite an old one.
Thanks for the help, if there is any?

Apple's Bigger iPhone Better Late Than Never
Apple has resisted the trend to launch a bigger iPhone despite Samsung's success with larger smartphones. But as the WSJ's Yun-Hee Kim tells us, more competition in the smartphone space means Apple's going for big.

Frederick Paul Deputee, Jr. Pleads Guilty In U.S. Federal Court
The United States Attorney's Office announced that during a federal court session in Billings, on January 29, 2013, before Chief U.S. District Judge Richard F. Cebull, FREDERICK PAUL DEPUTEE, JR., a 25-year-old resident of Hardin and an enrolled member of the Crow Tribe, pled guilty to theft from an Indian organization. Sentencing has been set for May 1, 2013. He is currently released on special conditions.
In an Offer of Proof filed by Assistant U.S. Attorney Carl E. Rostad, the government stated it would have proved at trial the following:
The Crow Tribal Historic Preservation Office (CTHPO) on the Crow Indian Reservation was created in 2005. The CTHPO is a designated office of the Crow Indian Tribe that provides for direct Tribal involvement and leadership in the protection and enhancement of Crow lands and cultural resources. It serves to identify, inventory, and protect culturally, archeologically, and historically important resources both on and off the reservation.
Each year, the CTHPO receives grant funds from the National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior. A requirement for any enterprise seeking to do work on the reservation that may disturb tribal lands - utilities, construction, energy exploration, development - is that the business employ the services of a CTHPO employee (archeological technician) to monitor the project to insure that lands of cultural or historic importance are not destroyed. The company is then charged for this monitoring service and payments are made to the Crow Tribe.
The Director of the CTHPO from approximately 2005 until November 15, 2011 is identified here as X.X. During the time X.X. was Director, most of the monitors were his family members. Two other monitors, one of which was DEPUTEE, were not hired as Crow Tribe employees but were assigned as project monitors and received payment directly from the companies.
Sometime in the summer of 2009, X.X. approached the Vice-Chairman of the Tribe and tried to get the process changed so that the companies could make direct payments to the monitors. When he was told he couldn't do that, he indicated he would take the matter up with the Chairman. The Chairman was never approached and did not provide any approval for X.X.'s request.
Even though his request was denied, X.X. began advising companies that payments would now be made directly to the tribal monitors assigned to the project. At first, in the summer of 2009, few direct payments were arranged. However, in the summer of 2010, the CTHPO staff person who insured that companies were properly billed and that CTHPO payments went to the Tribe left the office, and direct billing - having companies pay monitors personally instead of remitting the fee to the Crow Tribe - became much more prevalent.
From July 2009 to November 2011, a total of over $500,000 in monitoring service payments from the companies doing business on the Crow Reservation were diverted to the personal use and benefit of the employees of the CTHPO and the two non-employees - one of which was DEPUTEE - assigned to projects as a monitor.
In the Summer of 2011 - from June to August - DEPUTEE was assigned as a monitor to the Sarpy Creek project, which was the Westmoreland Resources expansion of the Absaloka Coal Mine in the Powder River Basin. DEPUTEE's assignment was to monitor the progress of the project to insure that no culturally, archeologically, or historically important sites were disturbed.
A Westmoreland sub-contractor, GCM Services, went forward with an extensive excavation of the site with the approval of X.X., who, as Director of the CTHPO, had assigned DEPUTEE and others as project monitors. As a result of the approved site plan, a 2,000-year-old bison kill site was unearthed in 2011 with heavy equipment, causing significant, irreparable damage to the site. The largest bison bone bed was estimated to cover almost 3,000 square meters and contained the remains of hundreds, perhaps thousands, of butchered bison remains and prehistoric spear points dating back to the Late Archaic period.
When interviewed, DEPUTEE maintained that he was authorized by his aunt to work as a monitor on the site and denied knowing that the money paid by the companies were tribal fees which should have been deposited with the tribal government. His aunt had no supervisory role at the CTHPO. DEPUTEE was convinced - based on the assurances given to him by his aunt - that he could act, and was participating in the CTHPO activities, as an independent contractor role and also received payment directly from GCM. He admitted, however, that he did not work the hours for which he billed the company and acknowledged the wrongfulness of billing for hours not worked. According to a GCM Services company representative, "the monitors often did not show up, and, if they did, they often only worked one to three hours."
I meet regularly with tribal officials on each of Montana's reservations, and at each meeting they ask this office to do more to put an end to corruption and theft in the administration of federal grants and programs. I take - and have taken - their pleas to heart when my office created the Guardians Project with just that mission in mind. The change of plea today represents just one of many, many steps this office will take to respond the concerns of our Indian communities for honesty and integrity in tribal government." Michael W. Cotter, United States Attorney for the District of Montana.
DEPUTEE faces possible penalties of 10 years in prison, a $250,000 fine and 3 years supervised release.
The investigation was conducted by a team of agents and auditors working with the U.S. Attorney's Guardians Project, including the Office of Inspector General for the Department of Interior, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Criminal Investigation Division of the Internal Revenue Service.
A copy of the Offer of Proof can be obtained by contacting Sally Frank at (406) 247-4638.

What kind of exercizes/healthy eating habits can I do to boost my metabolism?
Your metabolism is the rate at which you burn calories, and so this determines how quickly you gain or lose weight. Having a higher metabolism means you burn energy faster, and lose weight faster. The healthy way to boost metabolism is by building muscle. Muscle uses more energy than other tissues in your body and so increasing your muscle will increase your metabolism. Just sitting still, one pound of muscle burns 35 calories in a day while a pound of fat burns only 2! Exercise is the healthy way to build muscle, and all forms of exercise count! Aerobic exercise is great for burning calories, and weight training builds muscles. It is best to check with your doctor before beginning a rigorous exercise program.
There are no foods that significantly increase your metabolism. Eating small, frequent meals instead of large infrequent ones seems to increase calories burned. We think that going for long periods between meals tells your body that you're starving, and it slows your metabolism to save energy. Having a snack between meals keeps your metabolism "revved ".
Fruits and vegetables are low in calories and high in fiber and many important nutrients. They can help weight loss by replacing foods that are higher in calories. You can find good recipes using fruits and vegetables here.

monroeanimaldr necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 166 diseños de 29 diseñadores freelance.
Monroe Animal Health
My husband & I own a veterinary hospital. He practices medicine and I manage the office. After 11 years of ownership and operation from the existing facility, we are in the process of building a new hospital in a highly visible location. We practice high quality medicine on small animals (dog and cats only). We want our hospital to be professional and comfortable but not so over-the-top our clients are always looking for fees to go up. In comparison to other veterinarians in town, we belong to the younger generation. Our doctors are highly skilled and our staff friendly and helpful. Our hospital is a full service facility. We offer in-house diagnostics, in-house pharmacy, surgery, health maintenance, prescription diets as well as boarding including luxury suites. We focus on quality medicine not trends or retail pet supplies.
Since we are relocating an existing business to a more visible location on a main highway, our audience is mainly the traffic driving past our hospital everyday. Monroe is a mid-size town in northeast Louisiana. We are targeting our existing clients to follow us and well as attract new clients. Monroe is the home to a state university but also has older established corporations and families.
We specifically need an identifying icon to mount on the outside of our building above the front doors for clients to recognize as a veterinary hospital. The area dedicated to the logo/icon is approximately 9 feet wide and 7 feet tall. This is a massive space, however our building does sit 40 yards off of the highway. Small details will not be visible. We would also like to incorporate the design on the interior of the building as focal art behind the reception desk. In addition the logo will be used on our exterior sign, uniforms, letterhead and business cards. I have attached a rendering of the building. The winning design will be the main attraction displayed were the "M" is currently shown on the rendering. The brick will probably be a darker color and the stucco will be a complimentary color to the brick. Our metal finish for the entire building is brushed aluminum. The logo will be lit at night most likely in a fashion similar to the heart logo night attachment. The heart logo attached is a logo that we like very strongly. (We would actually use it, if someone had not already claimed it.) It incorporates the medical cross, paw print and heart. It speaks "caring medical facility for animals". That's what we are. After day 1 of competition, I realize there is a lot of talent out there. Therefore, I do not want to limit your design. Think outside of the box and give me your personal design. I just want to make sure we are not missing what may be the new us. Thank you.

I was late on our first date with my now ex husband....Me!...who always makes a big fuss about being on time....
We kept going back and forth" you said 8 o'clock" "no, I said 7.30"....It should have been a tell tale right there.
Hello everyone at theLoveLogic,
I thought this might be a fun way to get this forum off and running. If anyone has any first datie disaster stories, please feel free to post. This might be a great way to help other avoid another bad dating experience.
Just for the record, one squirt of perfume or cologne is fine...
Your Friend,
First date disaster stories! OH MY....
Actually Dave, I would rather hear some first date "success" stories as I just had one last Friday and that "sparkle" is back in my eye! PLUS, by not "settling" I found a very nice man who also gave me the "spark" I was looking for!
Date 2.... This Friday! SMILING!
Heh...this is a fun thread, Dave...guess i would have a few stories to write here as i had a period in my life when i deliberately screw first dates just to see what worked and what didn't ...makes me wonder why people stay away from this "MISTAKES THREADS" ...since when addmiting doing something wrong makes you a lesser man/woman ?
As a general rule , i found out that you can be the king of Rudesville on the first date, and you can't still turn it into a fairy tale ...it all depends on the comebacks and the general mood
I've already told the story of "The Groper" - that was the biggest first date mistake I'd been a part of.
I have a worst "first sexual encounter" story in addition to that (obviously, NOT with the Groper!). But it wasn't my fault, and I don't even know how it happened anyway. I got a nosebleed. Maybe the air was just really dry or something. I don't know. But I repeat: IT WASN'T MY FAULT!!!!
*sheepish look*
"Are tangerines really just oranges that didn't want it enough?" - Random Greeting Card
Hrmm... I've only been on a few first dates before so I don't have too much to go off of. I'd say maybe my very very first date ever once in high school. There was this guy that met up with me at the mall and we walked around and talked but I wasn't attracted to him and I figured out I just wanted to be friends. The mall went okay and everything but afterward I went on aim and one of his girl friends was talking to me saying that he liked me and asking what I thought and stuff. I was honest and said that I liked him as a friend and then I got chewed out by both him and her. A month later I saw a picture of him and some other girl making out on their profile pic. Thought it was pretty lame that he broadcasted it to the whole internet world but whatever.. desperate. lol
I was out with a girl last week.
Now I was slightly drunk shall we say when I met her pthe week before !
I knew she was blonde but thats kinda as far as it goes !
Soo, I decided to meet her ay my favourite tapas place here, I made sure I was not early so she'd be at the bar, so I walks in and theres 2 blondes at the bar, me being me, I went for the more attractive one, WRONG !!!
Worst thing was the other blonde thought I was chatting her up and seemed to be enjoying it, it soon dawned on me when my 'date' made herself known, surprisingly she stayed for dinner, unsurprisingly she never called.
I know, I know MY BAD !!!
I once went on a date with a guy who high-fived me every time he said something (he thought) was funny....the thing is all my friends (and my children) know NEVER to high-five me, I either flinch or miss completely am such a geek lol was the date from hell and I couldn't wait to get home, everyone else thought it was funny though!!

MOUNT CARROLL – The smell of coffee wafts from the Kraft Building these days – one of the signs, some say, of a downtown on the move.
Open since 2011, Brick Street Coffee takes up the renovated first floor. The renovation came about with the help of state and federal funds – and a loan from the city.
That loan is under new scrutiny. Some say it resulted from too-cozy relationships.
In 2009, the City Council approved a $90,000 loan for the Kraft Building's renovation; it later increased to $106,000. That money came from the city's $180,000 revolving loan fund, which the state provided years ago.
The loan went to the Mount Carroll Community Development Corp., a group that aims to boost the town's economy, particularly the downtown.
The group finished the first-floor renovation in December 2010.
Lou Schau is at the center of the deal. He is the president of the CDC, the owner of Brick Street Coffee, and a member of the city's revolving loan committee, which makes recommendations on loans.
The city's attorney, Ron Coplan of Morrison, also represents the CDC. He drafted the promissory note between the city and the group, which even he acknowledged could be seen as a conflict of interest. He also belongs to the revolving loan committee.
Now, two aldermen, Doris Bork and Bob Sisler, and a former one, Nina Cooper, are questioning the deal.
'Energy felt good in Mount Carroll'
Seven years ago, Schau, a retired engineer, moved to Mount Carroll from the Chicago suburb of Geneva. His wife had just died, and he was looking for a town with a slower pace – somewhere between the suburbs and Iowa.
Enter Mount Carroll, a hilly Carroll County town, population 1,693. Schau was impressed.
"The energy felt good in Mount Carroll," he said.
Schau became involved in the CDC and took its reins. The group took ownership of the burned-out Kraft Building, 320 N. Main St., in 2006 and sought to renovate it. He said he didn't originally intend to open a business in the building, but he did so to make the project a success.
Having just one business on the first floor is a detour from the original plan. According to the city's 4-year capital improvements plan in 2009, officials foresaw five or six small businesses on the first floor along with a welcome center.
The welcome center is in an entryway, with visitor brochures available. But Brick Street is the only business.
Under the state's requirements, a loan recipient must create or keep a job for every $15,000 lent.
For the 124-year-old Kraft Building project, that would equal seven jobs. CDC is short of that.
After 2 years, the project has created just one full-time employee, Schau himself. The coffee shop has five part-time workers. Schau wasn't sure how part-time positions should be counted, but such positions often are measured as half-time jobs. By that accounting, the project created three and a half jobs.
Schau also said the coffee shop consists of 36 vendors, who have things for sale such as chocolate chip cookies and greeting cards. That's part of the business incubator the CDC promised the city in return for the loan, he said. The vendors don't work on site; rather, the coffee shop handles the transactions for them.
Schau said those vendors count as two full-time jobs, but he didn't say how he reached that conclusion.
If Schau's version is correct, the project has created five and a half jobs – still less than the seven required.
In September, the city reported to the state that the CDC project had resulted in four jobs created. But City Clerk Julie Cuckler said that number was wrong.
"I was guessing," she said, adding that she counted at least that many working at the coffee shop when she went there.
The state asked that the city provide documentation on the jobs created with its next report, which is due this month, Cuckler said.
The state Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity provides the loan funds to towns, but agency officials declined to answer questions about the CDC's accounting of the jobs.
According to the agency's website, the revolving loan program allows no speculative projects. Jobs must be created or retained "in a timely manner as a result of [a revolving loan fund] investment in a specific, identifiable project," the site says.
'A little casual at times'
The CDC had another problem. In the state's eyes, it didn't exist for more than a year. The group involuntarily dissolved July 8, 2011, according to the Illinois secretary of state's website.
That means the CDC failed to file its annual report last year, even though the secretary of state's office sends reminder notices to businesses and nonprofit groups. On July 7, 2011 – one day before the dissolution – Brick Street Group, Schau's business, formed as a limited liability company, according to the secretary of state.
Attorney Coplan, who is listed as the CDC's agent, said he recently turned in the paperwork to the secretary of state. As of Nov. 29, the secretary of state again recognized the group.
Since 2008, the CDC also has not filed the required tax form for nonprofit groups, according to Guidestar, a website that closely tracks such documents.
"There is nothing amiss," Coplan said. "If it's been a little casual at times; it's reflective of a small town."
Then there's the issue of Coplan's role.
Coplan, also Sterling's city attorney, said he doesn't bill the CDC for his services, although he said that doesn't make a difference.
While he said his role could be seen as a conflict of interest, he said he would step aside if the city and the CDC developed an adversarial relationship.
"Conflicts can be waived by parties," Coplan said. "It's well known by the mayor and, I assume, the council that I work for CDC. They're fine with that. At the present time, there are some people who would like to create an issue between CDC and the city."
Maryam Judar, an attorney with the Citizens Advocacy Center, an Elmhurst-based watchdog group, said an attorney shouldn't represent both sides of an agreement.
"It's like playing chess with yourself," she said. "You know the person's next move because it's you."
'Way of spending city's largess'
The CDC never will have to repay the loan. The money for repayment is coming from the city's tax increment financing, or TIF, fund. The Kraft Building is in the downtown TIF district.
A TIF district is an economic development tool used to raise money for infrastructure and redevelopment projects in blighted areas designed to attract new businesses. When a TIF district is created, a base value of the property within its borders is calculated, and for up to 23 years – sometimes extended to 35 – local taxing bodies such as schools collect taxes only at that base level.
In Mount Carroll, the city gets everything collected above the base. Under the agreement with CDC, the city is supposed to make payments over 15 years from the TIF fund to the revolving loan fund – at a 2 percent interest rate.
Cooper, the former alderwoman, said the loan agreement was a "raw deal."
"It's a way of spending the city's largess," she said.
Alderwoman Bork said, "Who wouldn't want a loan they didn't have to pay back?"
The TIF money has been going to a dissolved corporation, she said.
Cooper said TIF money is not supposed to be used for speculative projects.
"There was no going concern there," she said. "They had to buy the building. It was burned out. I don't know what you would call that other than speculative."
She and Aldermen Sisler and Bork said they were worried because the CDC had dissolved.
Schau called that a "paperwork snafu." The project was serious, he said, noting that it received a $180,000 state grant and $99,000 from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Rural Development.
'It tears citizens apart'
The Kraft project is part of a downtown turnaround for the better, its boosters say.
"We're seeing something in every building downtown," City Clerk Cuckler said. "Our sales tax revenue is better than what I thought it would be after [the recession]. Come here on a Friday, Saturday or Sunday night and see if you can find a parking spot."
Schau said the CDC is made up of volunteers who have the best interests of Mount Carroll at heart. And he said the members of the revolving loan committee who also belong to the CDC abstained from making recommendations on the group's Kraft project.
"To cast doubt on this, to negate the labor of those who worked hard, that's hurt more than anything," Schau said. "It tears citizens apart."

Known as "the Divine One", the Countess of Castiglione was reputed to be the most beautiful woman of the century. A mysterious beauty, she lived in the basement apartments of 26 Place Vendôme thus sharing the Hôtel de Nocé townhouse with Frédéric Boucheron: she particularly loved his creations and soon became one of the Maison's most important ambassadors.
A collector of men's hearts, namely Napoleon III's, she was showered with jewelry by those who fell madly in love with her. So as to preserve her beauty from the harsh light of day, she only left her apartments in the evening, adorned in her jewels that sparkled brightly under the lights of the Place Vendôme. Legend has it that, when she returned home and was alone, she would spend hours contemplating them, fascinated by the magical dazzle of the splendid stones.

text: Harrison has been working on his diet and fitness since the end of last season [AFP]Novak Djokovic was well aware of up and coming American Ryan Harrison, even stating that he knew how to beat the 20-year-old, but his second round Australian Open opponent is sure he may be able to give the world number one a surprise on Wednesday.Two-time defending champion Djokovic will meet Harrison, for the third time in their careers, on Rod Laver Arena, and said after his first round victory over Paul-Henri Mathieu that he felt he knew the American's game and how to beat him.Harrison, however, underwent intensive training, physical conditioning and scientific physiological testing during the off-season in order to help take his game to the next level.He was told to lose weight in order to ensure he was more effective right to the end of long matches and how to manage his nutrition better and his first round win over Santiago Giraldo had given him confidence to press on against the Serb, he said. "... I'm going to try and play my game... try to control my side of the net... and not get caught up in the hypeof the situation and how good he is" American Ryan Harrison "It's an opportunity. I have confidence in myself after all the work I have done during the off season," Harrison told reporters ahead of the Djokovic clash."I feel different this year, mentally and physically I have put myself into a position where I feel that I'm going to go forward."I know that I've got myself into a better condition where I will be stronger and faster than the last time we played (in the second round at Wimbledon last year)."On top of that I'm going to try and play my game... try to control my side of the net... and not get caught up in the hype of the situation and how good he is."Women's second seed Maria Sharapova, who recorded a 6-0 6-0 victory over Russian compatriot Olga Puchkova in the first round, will meet Japan's Misaki Doi on Hisense Arena and could set up a third-round clash with Venus Williams.Venus will meet France's Alize Cornet on Rod Laver Arena before Djokovic meets Harrison, so the tall American will undoubtedly know that a victory over the Frenchwoman will guarantee one of the matches of the third round.Local hopes will be concentrated solely on the shoulders of women's ninth seed Sam Stosur, who nervously battled into the second round after a disrupted build-up.The Australian meets China's Zheng Jie, who beat the 28-year-old in the first round of the Sydney tournament the week before the season-opening grand slam.
