A film by
Kara Herold
2000, 18 minutes, Color, DVD
Order No. W01733
An 18 minute explosion of fringe feminism and print media, The GRRLYSHOW is a powerful and rebellious message from new voices often left unheard. Filmmaker Kara Herold examines the girly Zine revolution and culture in such a way that the film intellectually and stylistically addresses anyone's question concerning whether or not feminism has reached it's 3rd wave: the postmodern. By interweaving head-shot interviews, clips from the zines and 1950's television-esque vignettes, Herold clearly illustrates feminism's ability to exist subversively within a system that generally doesn't give women their own voice . The GRRLYSHOW successfully brings to the surface alternative voices and projects that are vital to the continuation and expansion of feminism. An excellent film for mass communication, women's studies and pop culture courses.
"A perky peek at the alternative media community where self-publishing gals are doin' it for themselves. Aware, irreverent, entertaining, even brilliant, these zine creators relish the irony that to speak in one's unique unfettered voice is to touch others more powerfully than with the traditional blanded-down mainstream mag approach. Viva the grrly zines!" Al Hoff, Pittsburgh City Paper & Creator, Thrift Score zine

"Gleefully explores the culture of zines and their role in shaping female identity in the twenty-first century."
Mill Valley Film Festival
"A timely spirited look at a new generation of diverse young women taking control of a corner of the media pie by self publishing their own magazines. Inspired by the zines themselves, Kara's film is irreverent, analytical and fun.�
Pat Ferrero
San Francisco State University
�'Grrlyshow' is an intelligent, honest and rare look at the women behind the alternative girl pop culture scene. It will surely stimulate discussion among diverse audiences -- especially among women and teenage girls -- and leave one inspired and empowered to challenge and re-examine one's relationship to the status quo."
Anita Chang
"A lively, witty concoction of cornball footage, ironic reenactments and insider interviews that captures the wicked humor and lively diversity of the girl zine world."

- Description
DetailsGive your concrete a classic, elegant look. Acid Stains react with the minerals in your concrete to physically change the color of your concrete. They create a colored translucent, variegated and sometimes marbleized effect. The art of RAC Stain is that no two slabs will ever color exactly the same; the texture of concrete, age and dilution ratio affect final color appearance. The translucence of RAC Stain also allows the many unique characteristics of the slab to show through. Acid staining your concrete will transform it into a work of art.
- Covers 100 - 200 sq ft per gallon non-diluted
- Covers 200 - 300 sq ft per gallon diluted 1-1
- Covers 300 - 400 sq ft per gallon diluted 2-1

The Torah says to "teach a child according to his ways" and so I have 2 munchkins who have 2 very different styles of learning. My little guy (5) is extremely academic. He can read books for hours on end and loves worksheets, workbooks, math and anything Science. My munchkin (3) is text book Montessori- she loves fine sensory activities, sorting, cutting, sticking, beading, anything like that.
And so I made her a little station with workboxes that she can do by herself. Each drawer is numbered and she does them in the order of the number. As she has finished each activity, she puts it back in the drawer and sticks a "check" on it, notifying me that she is "done" and then moves on to the next drawer. I have 6 drawers in total and she loves loves finding what surprises mommy has put in there every day.
Now my little guy, he has folders with different "assignments" in each one. Some are worksheets, some are little reading books, some are hands on activities (which I put on the trays) and he picks and chooses which activities and assignments to do. There is no quota for how many things he has to do a day and so he can spend as much time as he needs on each thing. He loves the independence of picking and choosing what to do. Some days he does all of them, some days he does just a few, depending on his mood as well as the activity.
He is enrolled in an online Yeshiva and so he does his Judaic studies in the morning for an hour and a half with the rest of his class. Its pretty awesome as he has kids in his class from all around the world who are all little Yeshiva boys and girls just like him living in the middle of nowhere! We have a big world map on the wall and he has pinned all the different countries/cities of his classmates (Cancun, Mexico, Guatemala, France, England, St. Thomas VI, and around the continental US), he really loves it and it covers so much- his Hebrew reading, writing, prayers, holidays, customs etc.
Here is his system which works really well for him. He also has little "I'm all done!" cards to let me know which activities he has completed so I can "refill" it for the next day:
Sometimes my munchkin wants to be like her big bro and so I give her Alef Bet work sheets from this book:
They are fabulous for beginners in letter recognition, and she feels like a big girl doing her worksheets. I have a little folder that she keeps them in and feels really proud of herself:)
So thats what works for us so far-
Hope you find what works for you!
Thanks for stopping by,

I want to report a problem with the wlan connection that occurs randomly. This is new, only since about a week (maybe after an du). After reboot I can not rely that the wlan connection is going to be built. A new configuration with ceni then shows:

But why? The router-log shows up there IS an dhcp-offer:
04/22/2011 22:44:10 sending OFFER to 192.168.2.102
04/22/2011 22:44:02 sending OFFER to 192.168.2.102
04/22/2011 22:43:47 sending OFFER to 192.168.2.102

04/22/2011 22:42:14 sending OFFER to 192.168.2.102
And by the way, it's only with wlan, the lan dhcp works fine.
There are some "possible errors" that I can exclude:
rfkill list
0: ideapad_wlan: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
1: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
The PSK is definitely correct, the router was reset (and firmware updated), and as I mentioned above, randomly it works.
04:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY (rev 01)
Anybody else with this kind of behavior? What else should I try?
edit: marked as solved

Maybe one of those :
- driver issue
- firewall blocking the dhcp offers
- bad reception, interference : the link from the router to your computer may be weaker than the other way round, for instance if the transmitting antenna from the router is not located in a good spot or if the transmitting power of the router is too low. In that case any interference (gsm, microwave, other wifi...) may degrade the signal to the point where it's unusable. Solutions may be to choose a higher transmission power on the router, put the router and/or antennas in a better position.
I used to have this issue mostly when saturating the bandwidth with p2p, the bandwidth would slow to a crawl and sometimes it would be impossible to renew dchp. Same thing, seemed to occur randomly though there was a general pattern of the time of the day it occurred more frequently (probably due to interference in that case).
Haven't completely figured it out, but I think it might be related to driver issues the computer's wifi, a router issue, or the firewall of the router kicking in due to too many connection attempts.
You may want to read about bufferbloat also. It may be that the buffers of the router are full to the point that the dhcp offers all timeout.
The issues are mostly over since I configured QoS of the router, reduced txquelen of the wifi of both the router and the PC, and added traffic shaping (wondershaper) on the PC.
Wifi chip : Atheros AR928X Wireless

ShakaZ, thanks a lot for your suggestions! I am writing on the said machine via wlan right now - and I think it was (or maybe still is) a combination of driver and interference issue.
I give a short summary:
I gave it a try for a fresh dist-upgrade, but the firmware-b43-lpphy-installer was not available any more (404 error). Too bad, I had to go for the braodcom-sta driver. Okay, seemed to work again, but still "no dhcpoffers".
Then I tried with other adjustments. Class: "Auto" (instead of allow-hotplug) did it - at least for the moment, and only after I cut the "wire-lan" connection. I don't believe that was the real reason. A few days later (today) there is "no dhcp-offer" - again.
So I tried switching through the channels... well, finally, it works. But I have the dim feeling that this was not the end of the game either. Well, I'll wait a few days before I switch the thread to "solved".
Thanks again ShakaZ for your important suggestions!
This machine is an lenovo G530. I bought it for my wife for her daily office tasks. It was very inexpensive and sold without OS, so I thought it was perfect for our desire.
But what I saved in Euros I payed back - in "hours"...
To tell the truth, I learned that the broadcom wifi card is a pain in linux. So the easiest way would be to change the mini-PCI-card with an atheros-based card or something else. But lenovo does not allow this: the BIOS has a blockade and refuses a boot with "unauthorised" hardware.
Well, just as a warning, in case anyone tinkers with the idea of buying one of these cheap machines, G550 and so on have the same blockade as far as I know. You have to have ...patience. (ok, to be fair, on the other hand everything else on them is "okay").

@10toe, there are BIOS's that are patched to disable that "hardware blockade" so that you can use ANY wifi card that fits the slot. My Thinkpad T42 has such a patched BIOS and I am using an Atheros card that's normally not supported. Broadcom cards are still a royal PITA these days

Actually there is an easily installed bios patch for at least some IBM matchines. The problem is that IBM wants you to have to use IBM branded mini-pci cards. Non-IBM branded cards will give an error at boot. The patch changes one bit in bios, which disables the IBM brand checking. The patch is reversed if you reset bios to default settings. I installed the patch on a T41, after which the mini-pci card worked fine.

@10toe : Yes I should have mentioned the importance of channel wrt interference especially in environments with a lot of wifi devices. The wifi channels that are close to each other have frequencies that are partially overlapping, which causes interference. If you're on the same channel as another wifi device there is time sharing and you're reception is dependent on how aggressive the other device is.
Theoretically the best channel is 1 as it is less weakened by obstacles, but then you have to take into account what channels other wifi devices are using.
For instance, in my neighbourhood, there's a free community wifi network that crosses all over the city. It uses channel 1, probably with high powered antennas, so it's impossible to use that channel. Considering other channels used around my place (5,6,6,6,8,11,12), the next best channel is 3 which I'm using.

Ok, a few days did past, wlan worked 100%. Problem solved - for now.
Thanks for your suggestions of flashing the BIOS. I will consider this in the future. (Hm, it is legal, isn't it?)

Agriculture Secretary Ed Schafer says the farm bill conference report Congress will consider in the next few days would cost taxpayers another $20 billion above baseline spending for the long-awaited legislation.
And even if it only cost $10 billion over baseline, as farm bill negotiators claim, the bill still doesn't contain enough "reform" to keep President Bush from vetoing it, Schafer told reporters attending a news conference Friday (May 9).
Schafer's comments drew an angry response from North Dakota Sen. Kent Conrad, considered one of the principal authors of the farm bill agreement, during a press briefing held two hours after Schafer's. Conrad and Senate Agriculture Committee Chair Tom Harkin briefed reporters to "correct inaccuracies" in administration statements.
"These are fictional numbers based on made-up scorekeeping that the administration has never applied to its own legislation or budgets," Conrad said of Schafer's claim that the conference report increases spending by $20 billion.
"Under CBO scoring, our farm bill spends $10 billion above baseline over the budget window. That's not my number. That's the number from CBO, which is Congress' nonpartisan, independent budget agency."
Schafer, who was joined by Deputy Agriculture Secretary Chuck Conner at the USDA news briefing, said the administration would have been willing to consider a conference report with $10 billion in additional spending if it contained "real reforms" of farm programs.
"Unfortunately, this bill does not reform farm programs," Schafer said. "In fact, in some areas it would take a step backward. It actually increases government spending on sugar, so domestic producers can be assured of nearly double the world price." (The farm bill increases the loan rate for sugar by three-fourths of a cent to 18.75 cents for cane sugar.)
The secretary said the farm bill reportedly would increase loan rates for 15 crops and target prices for 17 crops, which "is trade-distorting support that makes our programs vulnerable to challenge from abroad at a time when trade is more important than ever. In states like North Dakota, trade accounts for 50 percent of the market for our agriculture products.
(During the news conference, Schafer, former governor of North Dakota, acknowledged the current governor had called the secretary to inform him he was supporting the farm bill conference report.)
He also said the bill does not reform the beneficial interest program, a practice he said allows farmers to lock in loan deficiency payments when prices are low but wait to sell their crops when prices are high, nor does it "set a reasonable income limit for when a producer can graduate from taxpayer support."
Schafer's comments, which repeated a litany of complaints about the House and Senate farm bills going back to last summer with former Secretary Mike Johanns, have drawn consternation among farmers and ranchers and their organizations.
Summarizing the farm bill activities in his weekly newsletter, the executive director of one farm group advised his members not to listen to the secretary's comments unless they "need to raise their blood pressure."
Although he refuted a number of Schafer's claims (his lists of rebuttals ran seven pages), Conrad said this statement by Schafer had to be addressed: "At a time of record farm income, Congress decided to further increase farm subsidy rates, qualify more people for taxpayer support and move programs toward more government control."
"Commodity program spending is reduced, not increased, in this farm bill," said Conrad. "For example, the bill cuts direct payments by $300 million. Crop insurance spending is cut $5.7 billion. Even after accounting for the disaster program, the farm safety net is cut by $3.5 billion.
"Commodity programs under this farm bill will account for only 0.25 percent of the federal budget, down significantly from 0.75 percent in the last farm bill."

Major German Paper praises KDE and Konqueror
The big German newspaper Süddeutsche (400000+ copies sold every day) has published a 10-part installation report (German) of SuSE Linux 8.1. The author, who has no experience with Linux and KDE whatsoever, is full of praise for KDE and Konqueror. Other projects such as the Gimp and OpenOffice.org are also mentioned positively.
Roughly translated excerpts:
"... Anyone who is accustomed to GUIs by working with Mac or Windows, will get along with KDE quite well."
"... Konqueror, the universal talent, also as web browser, kmail and knode, the email program and newsreader for KDE, are top notch, did I mention that? ..."
"... I would like to mention that konqueror browser, an astounding web browser, file manager and file viewer, all in one, that can access the web, windows partitions and of course linux files without any problems..."
"...Konqueror is great for surfing, K-Mail, the Email program for KDE is a good mailer. Knode collects News."
full of praise?
Hmm, full of praise? :-))
This 2. report "Journey into the center of the hell" is all over full of ironic but veeery well written. Its about a Linux installation, experiences with the community, problems with Samba... and some (positve) lines are related to KDE. Basically, what he writes is like this: "Live can be easy, but now I want to lean Linux" :-)
Its worth reading but don't try to auto-translate: Babelfish may like vogon poetry but no ironic German (example:) "Yes, we old Linux Fexe. Us nevertheless none makes which forwards. Gewieft as we are. The Wizzards OF OS even!" :-))

Re: full of praise?
That part is even better. He has described the installation in 9 steps. The first 8 steps are his ideas what could went wrong. In the last step he started the installation and discovers that it works and that KDE even make sense :)

Which document should we link? computer/neuetechnik/software/56593 or /computer/neuetechnik/software/54600&datei=index.php or computer/neuetechnik/software/56570&datei=index.php? I'm not sure what the difference is.

Re: full of praise?
The critical remarks do not concern KDE. In fact KDE gets most of the praise. The unix parts (installing and configuring samba and netscape-7.0) are daunting for Graff.
By Moritz Moeller-... at Sat, 2002/11/09 - 6:00am
Re: full of praise?
Man o man I am new at this but linuxs had my attention for some time now. As a Wincat with many flee days I am glad i decided to buy the 8.1 version. With the KDE, oooh man, move over 6.0 because you are history to me. Now to start having fun playing and learning more about this Now and Future OS system. Mr. Schnebeck you are definitly in the groove. Because this new OS is for Crossovers, Newbees, Advance and Profis alike.
By Ralph Robinson at Sun, 2002/11/10 - 6:00am
Only in the online edition?
I read their report a couple of weeks ago, only online.
By anon at Sun, 2002/11/10 - 6:00am
Doesn't suprise me
Don't we all know that using KDE is easy (-er!) than Windows, the internal logic of KDE is nowadays very-very strong. Someone with some technical inclination (journalist writing for "Neue Technik/Software" section) should see that. And, what's more, installing SuSE8.1 is an absolute nobrainer. But, don't you forget: how many (mum/dad) Windows users have ever _installed_ Windows?? I have even heard of Win users who bought a new computer when, after two years of using Windows X-whatever, the performance was completely down the drains.

Purpose and Destiny
It was late in the year of 2009 when I heard Him whisper it to me again.
The kind of whisper that you cannot deny.
Cannot shake.
Cannot stop thinking about.
You eat, breathe, sleep the whispered words.
It's time daughter. It's time to do the second Pearl Event.
I remember shaking my head.
I remember saying out loud....not yet Lord.
We had just moved across the country in the summer of 2009. New schools. A new place to live.
A husband who lived and worked in another state.
I argued with Him for days.
And then after a week or so of telling Him all the reasons that I couldn't do it again- not yet anyway.
I went to sleep that night and as I crawled into bed completely exhausted I said these exact words....
"I love you Lord....... but I can't."
The reason I remember everything so vividly is because after I spoke those words to my heavenly Father I went on to have the most incredible dream that night that I have ever had in my entire life. It was one of those dreams that changes your life. It was His way of speaking to me. Of ministering to me. Of helping me along and prodding this daughter of His who has sometimes had to fight her way through her own crisis of faith.
I want to share pieces of it. In hopes that it will bring encouragement for the journey that you are on.
Here's hoping...
I was on a field outside of some sort. There were lots of people there. As I walked across the field there was a person on each side of me walking with me.
I didn't know them.
I didn't recognize them.
But they were holding me.
Carrying me almost.
And they knew me.
They walked me up to a stage of some sort and I stood in the background behind the scenes where people were working and they were in a big hurry. Lots of urgency and scurrying around. There was lots of equipment and people with headsets on and such.
Someone motioned for me and I panicked.
I began to call for another person in my life- I began to tell all of these people working backstage to get this other person. I told them how wonderful she was and what a great job she would do.
They got the other person.
Afterwards I looked out to see all of the people leaving.
And just about that time someone came up and called me by name and asked for a picture. (Isaiah 43:1)
There was once again two people standing next to me. One on either side.
I was so confused.
When I woke up I couldn't move.
I couldn't shake it.
I couldn't forget it.
And so I began to ask the Lord about it....
Lord, what is this all about?
Daughter I have called you. I called you but you wouldn't come forth.
I've called you for such a time as this.
I've called you for this window.
There is a window here.
I was there. My spirit was there. The people who needed to hear my words were there.
But you wouldn't come forth.
But Lord,
Not me.
Not me Lord.
Who were those people?
Who were those two people on either side of me, walking with me and standing next to me for the picture.
It was purpose and destiny daughter. It was purpose and destiny standing with you.
I'm sure I gasped and couldn't breathe at this point.....
More questions...
But Lord, why was someone taking a picture? I don't understand what this is all about.
Purpose and Destiny carried you to your place.
To the window I have opened. Carried you to your season.
When you wouldn't come forth. Wouldn't obey my voice.
I had someone take a picture of you WITH purpose and destiny.
So you could look at it. Remember it. Be ever mindful of it.
I wanted you to have a picture to keep because you have never seen yourself WITH purpose or destiny......
Only the Lord could offer up a dream so beautiful. So healing. So full of hope that whatever this is....
This ministry. This Pearl Event. This desire and passion to see women set free of every single thing that would hold them back in life. This force within me that will not let up. This burden that will not allow me to sleep for very long. This heart that feels someone else's pain and cannot shake it.....
Only He could bring something forth from a life that thought it was so over.
So dead.
So worthless.
Only He could take someone everyone else threw away and place a ministry inside what they deemed as garbage.
Glory to His name.
Sometimes (a lot of times) when God extends His hand and begins to prod us and lovingly push us out into what He has called us to do.....it will not make sense.
It most likely will not make any sense.
It does not make sense in my own life, with everything I am walking through right now, to do another Pearl Event.
But God.
He will orchestrate things on our behalf if we are willing and obedient.
There may not be very much support.
I would dare say that there may be hardly any...
It may just be you and Jesus.
But I want to encourage you to push through all of those things.
The things that do not make sense. The lack of support. The friends who may laugh or judge or roll their eyes at whatever IT is that you and the Father are up to...
Do it anyway.
Do it with fear and trembling.
Do it completely alone. Sell everything you own if you have to. And sometimes you may have to.
Be willing and obedient.
I love that scripture.
IF you are willing AND obedient you will eat the good of the land.
Notice how it does not say ....
If everything is perfect in your life THEN be willing and obedient.
If everyone is for you and lined up to help you THEN be willing and obedient.
If you have 10,000 dollars sitting in your savings account THEN be willing and obedient.
It just simply says this, "If you are willing and obedient you shall eat the good of the land." - Isaiah 1:19
I just want to encourage you today. I know every single one of you reading this have God dreams on the inside of you. Things so special, so sacred, so dear to your heart that you may not have ever even shared them with a single person.
You can set fear aside and push forth.
You can fulfill the call that God has on your life.
You can start over again no matter the circumstances.
You can do it alone. Create it alone. Execute it alone.
You do not have to have cheerleaders and people around you who support you.
God will eventually bring the right people at the right time... just begin.
You may get overwhelmed. Or frustrated. Or sad.
Keep going. Don't stop.
Keep trying. You will find your way. You have God guiding you and prompting you.
Stay close to Him and far away from naysayers.
You may have to remove yourself from a group of friends.
That's okay.
You may have to spend a lot of time alone.
That's okay too.
God's purpose and plans and promises will come to pass.
You will walk in life with purpose and destiny......
And He alone will get the glory.
By His immeasurable grace sweet friends....The Pearl Event II is sold out.
No words big enough today. Thank you for your many prayers......

I came here through my one of my favorite blog friends, Paige. BUT GOD are my favorite two words in the entire Bible. I can't believe you wrote them like that...just those two words on one line. What a gift to me today as I consider what He's calling me to do. (And yes, it looks crazy on paper!) I wish I could join you in Nashville!

I just love every word...beautiful.
Isn't God just amazing?
Sibi, I think you have cheerleaders. Those you don't even know or think...God has placed you on the hearts of many, I'm sure.
Praying the Pearl Event will be blessed and lives will be forever changed.

Book clubs anyone?
Have you ever joined a book club?
Traditionally, book clubs were known as reading groups and they are typically a group of readers who gathered together on a regular basis to read and discuss what they read. During the 18th and 19th centuries they served as an outlet for discussion and debate.
Lately, book clubs have evolved to be something entirely different. The not only foster discussion and debate, but some of them make books available to their membership. What they both have in common, however, is that they serve as a means to expose their membership to

See our FAQs page for frequently asked questions on applying. Also, view our additional tips for filing the FAFSA.
Once the federal processor receives your application, an Expected Family Contribution (EFC) is determined. The results are mailed to you in the form of a Student Aid Report (SAR). You will receive your SAR (by email if you provided an email address on your FAFSA application) the next business day if you filed online, in about 2-3 weeks if you filed by mail. The EFC is located on the top right corner of the SAR. See our Eligibility page for more information>>
Student Aid Report (SAR)
As soon as you receive your SAR, look it over carefully to make sure your information is correct. Check the following:
- spelling of your name (this should identically match the name on your social security card)
- social security number
- birth date
- income information
- academic level/goal
If no corrections are necessary, keep the SAR for your records. If you need to make corrections, do them online or correct and sign your paper SAR and mail Part Two back to the Federal Processor. If you have questions, call or stop by the Financial Aid Office.
You will be required to submit additional form(s) or documents to complete your file. You will be notified by email which additional documents or form(s) are required. You are also able to view what forms are required through your WebAdvisor account under "My Documents". Keep your email, phone number and mailing address current through WebAdvisor. If you do not receive or respond to correspondence, your financial aid will not be processed.
Due to the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), we cannot release student financial aid information to anyone other than you, the student. If you wish your information to be released to someone else, you must request and submit an Authorization to Release Info eform. To access this eform, you must have a FAFSA and current application for admission on file with Cabrillo.
The Financial Aid Office begins processing applications in April for students who have met the March 2nd priority filing deadline. After you submit all documents required for your financial aid file, it is reviewed and eligibility is determined. Awards are disbursed approximately two to four weeks after your file is reviewed. This process is outlined in the Financial Aid Processing Timelines. Applications are processed on a first-come, first-serve basis.
An Award Letter notification will be emailed to you after we have reviewed your academic progress and your file. For more information on this process read our Eligiblity page.
AWARDS ARE BASED ON FULL-TIME ENROLLMENT. The actual amount received will differ if your enrollment status changes (see chart below).
|Enrollment Status
|Award Amount
|12+ units = Full-time
|9-11.99 units = 3/4 time
|6-8.99 units = 1/2 time
|<6 units - less than 1/2 time
|Less than 25%
You must maintain a current email, phone number and mailing address with the college. You can check/update your address in WebAdvisor. Bankmobile Cards are mailed to the address on file.
Federal regulations require that all types of financial aid be coordinated. You must inform Financial Aid if you receive any aid not listed on your award notification such as scholarships, stipends, vocational rehabilitation. A revision to your financial aid award may be necessary.
Amounts on award letters are based on FULL-TIME enrollment (12+ units). Your actual award amount will be less if you are enrolled less than full-time and/or if you owe student charges. You must maintain a current email and mailing address with the college. Awards are posted to your Bankmobile Card/Bankmobile Account or to your checking account depending on the disbursement option you choose with Bankmobile. If you choose not to activate your Bankmobile account, you will receive a check to your address in WebAdvisor after 21 days.
Enrollment Verification
The Federal Government expects students and their families to contribute toward educational expenses. Students are considered dependent and are required to provide parent(s) information on the FAFSA unless:
Students who meet one of the above criteria are considered independent and, if married, are also required to provide spouse's information on the FAFSA.
Students with adverse or unusual circumstances may be considered for a dependency status change by filing a Dependency Status Petition with the Financial Aid Office. This may be done after you complete your FAFSA. If you have any questions, please make an appointment with your Financial Aid Advisor.
If you drop units during the add/drop period and this results in a change to your enrollment status, you may owe money. This is especially true if you drop below half-time status.
For example:
You are enrolled in 12 units (full time) at the beginning of the term:
You receive $825 PELL (50% of a full-time award).
If you drop to three-quarters time (9-11.5 units), you would receive $413 for the second-half disbursement (instead of $825) and would not owe an overpayment.
If you drop to half-time (6-8.5 units), you would not receive a second-half disbursement and you would not owe an overpayment.
If you drop to less than half-time (less than 6 units), you will owe all or a portion of what you received.
If you owe an overpayment, you have 45 days to repay the college in full or it may be reported to the Department of Education (DOE). You will not be able to register for classes at Cabrillo until the overpayment has been paid. If reported to the DOE, you will not be able to receive further financial aid from any college.
If you never attend a class and this results in a change of your enrollment status, then your Pell grant award must be recalculated. This will result in you owing part or all of that award money back to the college.
You have 45 days to repay the college in full or it may be reported to the Department of Education (DOE). You will not be able to register for classes at Cabrillo until the overpayment has been paid. If reported to the DOE, you will not be able to receive further financial aid from any college.
Awards will be disbursed through your Bankmobile Card and Bankmobile. Some programs require that the student sign for the receipt of the check. Those checks will be held at Student Accounts in the Welcome Center and you will be notified.
Note: Keep your email and mailing address current with the college.
Any student charges for the current term will be deducted from your financial aid and/or scholarship.
If you have been awarded a scholarship, it will be disbursed to you before the start of the term unless enrollment verification is required. Then it will be disbursed within two weeks of the receipt of enrollment verification.
Federal Work-Study checks are posted to your Bankmobile Card or Bankmobile Account on the 10th of each month based on hours worked the previous month.
If a check you received from Student Accounts in the Welcome Center(i.e. Chafee or Work-Study) is lost, go to the Welcome Center(SAC East) and initiate a stop payment. Reissued checks can take up to six weeks.
If the check is from Bankmobile(due to you not activating your Bankmobile account and waiting 21 days) and the check is lost or not received, then you will have to contact Bankmobile at 1-877-327-9515.

How to help Oklahoma tornado victims
By Suzanne Choney, Contributing Writer, NBC News
The loss of life and stunning devastation in Oklahoma City suburbs after a monster tornado ripped through the area are heart-wrenching. But within hours, relief organizations were getting out the message on how to help.
American Red Cross
The Red Cross has set up shelters in various communities. You can donate to the Red Cross Disaster Relief fund here, and the organization also suggests giving blood at your local hospital or blood bank.
If you're searching for a missing relative, check Red Cross Safe & Well's site. And please register if you're within the disaster region. The site is designed to make communication easier after a tragedy like this.
If you want to send a $10 donation to the Disaster Relief fund via text message, you can do so by texting the word REDCROSS to 90999. As in the case with other donations via mobile, the donation will show up on your wireless bill, or be deducted from your balance if you have a prepaid phone. You need to be 18 or older, or have parental permission, to donate this way. (If you change your mind, text the word STOP to 90999.)

In contrast to so many rappers today who pride themselves on 'going dumb' and acting 'ignant,' Brooklyn emcee Talib Kweli prides himself on staying smart, both in his life (along with Mos Def he owns an independent, non-profit black bookstore in Brooklyn) and through his refreshingly conscious music that harks back to the golden age of hip-hop, when saying something positive was as important as a laying down a catchy hook for the radio and dancefloor. It is no coincidence that "Kweli" in Swahili means "true," since the artist is 100% true to hip-hop as a positive black art form meant to uplift rather than dumb-down the masses.
Like his longtime collaborators and old Rawkus pals Mos Def and Hi-Tek, Talib Kweli has always stayed true to hip-hop's roots and yet has managed to stay current and vital. Personally, I think he is one of the few contemporary artists making hip-hop that is worth a damn and when I first got his 2006 single "Listen" (off his new album Ear Drum), it just got stuck both in my head and on my turntable for weeks on end. It is the way hip-hop should be: good track and hook with lyrics that actually say something. Check out the video for "Listen" below. But later today (Monday August 20th) if you are in the Los Angeles area you can probably see/hear him perform it live if you check out his Hollywood Amoeba Music instore. It starts at 6PM, but get there early to jockey a good position. And if, like me, you will not be in SoCal, take advantage of the live streaming of his instore via our website, also scheduled to start at 6PM Pacific Standard Time.

March 1, 2007
The Alumni and Parent Relations Office is partnering with the Schroeder Center for Career Development to host "Welcome to the Real World" workshop on Monday, March 19.
The event is part of the LEAD program — Linking Education and Alumni Development — which is designed to prepare Wabash students for life after graduation.
"Welcome to the Real World will be held in Detchon Center's International Hall from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.
The centerpiece of the "Real World" seminar will be a keynote talk by noted author, commentator, and career coach Susan Strayer.
Strayer's vast experience includes ten years as a business and HR professional with and for Fortune 500 companies. She's unique because of her experience on both sides of career guidance and placement; her work today focuses on job seekers and how they can best prepare themselves for life in the "Real World."
"This is a crucial time for new employees and graduate students and our goal is to help them learn the best ways to make a successful transition from undergraduate life to their first postgraduate experience," said Schroeder Center Director Scott Crawford. "Susan is a dynamic and engaging speaker, and last year was by far our most popular presenter, according to the 2006 seniors."
"I've lived in both sides of the house: the corporate hiring suite where needs have to be met perfectly (and faster than you can say "hire"), and the job seeker's basement where hours of hard work don't always equal success," Strayer says on her website.
Staryer is currently on a national tour promoting her book The Right Job, Right Now: The Complete Tool Kit for Finding Your Perfect Career. The book is described as a "modern, end-to-end tool kit featuring everything you need to find the right career, embark on a successful job search, and succeed in your new job."
Stops on her tour include Harvard University, the Pennsylvania Institute of Technology, and a book party in Washington, D.C. She's also doing an interview on The View XM Radio show.
As the founder of University and Career Decisions Srayer works with individuals, companies, and universities in career management, organization development, and human resources strategy. Her performance strengths include: individual coaching and consultation, employer branding and recruiting strategy, human resources communication, and presentation and facilitation. She is the creator of the Kaleidoscope Career Model which serves as the basis for her brand new book, The Right Job, Right Now.
Strayer holds an MA in Human Resource Development from The George Washington University, and a BA in Communication from Virginia Tech. She is currently pursuing an MBA from the Owen Graduate School of Management at Vanderbilt University.
Seniors and young alumni interested in participating in the "Welcome to the Real World" program can click here to sign up through Wabash Works.
While on campus, Strayer will also be giving a lunchtime presentation on March 19 at 12:00 noon, sponsored by the Business Society (Phi Beta Lambda) and Career Services, titled "How to Start Your Own Consulting Business."

text: 15 Tips for High Soybean Yields April 29, 2011 09:58 PM Tweet Plant soybeans like corn—1" to 1½" deep and when soil temperature is above 55°F in the Corn Belt or by the calendar in the South. If your field gets off to a rocky start, don't give up; soybeans set their yield later in development than corn. © Sara Brown TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By Darrell Smith Farm Journal Conservation and Machinery Editor Email Be Proactive and Hope the Weather Cooperates Soybean germplasm possesses a lot of untapped yield potential, says Farm Journal Field Agronomist Ken Ferrie. But there's no cookbook recipe that is guaranteed to bring it out. That's because so much of soybean yield is based on environmental conditions. The high soybean yields experienced by many farmers in 2010 may have resulted from unusually good growing conditions. However, Ferrie explains, "We've seen things in our 20 years of on-farm studies that make a difference in yield and do it consistently enough that we know we should pay more attention. They help set the stage for maximizing yield when the environmental conditions are right." Ferrie shared those tips with attendees at Farm Journal's 2010 Corn College, which featured the first-ever soybean bonus session. (Learn more about Soybean College.) 1. pH is critical. Don't let soils get acid. "Soil pH is an important factor with soybeans," Ferrie says. "As soon as we let pH slide, we run into trouble." It's their root system that makes soybeans so sensitive to acidity. "Instead of grassy roots, like corn, which spread out through the soil, soybeans have a taproot concentrated in one area," he explains. "The roots release hydrogen, which creates an area of concentrated acidity around them." You may have observed this effect without realizing it if you ever planted soybeans in an alkaline field with a high soil pH. "During dry periods, the soybean plants look green and healthy because the acidity produced by the roots counterbalances the alkalinity of the soil," Ferrie says. "But then you get a rain, which washes the acidity deeper into the soil. The soil becomes alkaline, nutrients are tied up and unavailable and the soybeans turn yellow." Acid soils will have poor nutrient release; regardless of what your soil test says, you won't get nutrients into the plant. Acid soils will kill off the rhizobium bacteria, which are responsible for nodulation. "Your soil may be at a marginal pH of 6.1 in mid-April; but if it gets hot and dry in June and July, your pH could dip in the zone around the taproot," Ferrie adds. "That acidity will shut down the soil microbes. "Keeping soil pH in the sweet zone results in more consistent soybean yields," he concludes. 2. Manage alkaline soils. Alkaline soils are prone to micronutrient deficiencies, which can have a critical effect on yield, Ferrie says. "In some calcareous, high-pH soils, it might be best to take soybeans out of the rotation. If you decide to plant soybeans, find a variety that can handle that situation." 3. Balance fertility. Potassium plays a big part in soybean yield because it is involved in water management and disease prevention. Keep an eye on magnesium levels, especially if a field is high in phosphorus—for example, from overapplication of manure. "If soil magnesium levels are low, we tend to see magnesium deficiency in soybean plants," Ferrie says. "You may need to make an application of K-Mag or dolomitic limestone to fix the problem." 4. Nitrogen probably won't help. Think carefully before you apply nitrogen fertilizer to soybeans. "Applying nitrogen in the spring may make soybeans look good because they usually don't produce their own nitrogen until the third to fourth trifoliate, but it usually has little effect on yield and sometimes lowers it," Ferrie says. "Typically, having excess nitrogen available makes soybeans lazy about nodulating and producing their own nitrogen. "Starter nitrogen may give beans an extra push in late planting, stressful situations or cold soils. But, in general, concentrate on phosphorus and potassium. You need phosphorus for cell elongation and growth and you need potassium for disease resistance." Soybean seeds are sensitive to fertilizer burn, Ferrie points out. So if you apply starter, place it to the side, rather than in the furrow. 5. Foliar feeding? Maybe. For certain soils that are deficient in manganese, foliar feeding can prevent deficiencies in soybean plants, Ferrie says. 6. Plant beans like corn. Plant soybeans 1" to 1½" deep. Try to plant at the correct time—when soil temperatures are above 55°F in the Corn Belt or by the calendar if you farm in the South. "If you stick beans into cold, wet soil, you probably will be replanting," Ferrie says. Set your planter to do a good job of singulating because you'll likely get a more uniform pod load, which is important to yield. If you do have to plant in tough conditions and get a less than ideal stand, don't give up on the crop—soybeans have a remarkable ability to compensate. "Because soybeans set their yield later in their development, a tough start for beans doesn't carry the yield penalty that it does for corn," Ferrie points out. 7. Planter box fungicides. Know the type and amount of disease pressure you face in each field. "If a field has a history of water molds, such as Phytophthora and Pythium, treat the seed with a fungicide," Ferrie says. 8. Inoculate seed. If a field hasn't grown soybeans for a few years, inoculate the seed with rhizobium bacteria. Ferrie's studies have shown that inoculating does not always increase yield. In some situations where water runs across a field, the soil may get reinoculated automatically. But if an inoculant is needed, the payoff can be great. "An inoculant is too cheap to leave out," Ferrie says. 9. Stay ahead of pests. Because pest management is such a critical part of high soybean yield, designate a pest boss on your staff or hire a consultant to scout fields. You or your pest boss must know the critical stages in soybean and pest development and the economic thresholds for treatment. Stay on top of diseases and manage them with fungicide application, rotation and varieties. Current soybean prices provide even more reason to pay close attention to your pods. Photo: Beth Snyder 10. Nix on nematodes. "Soybean cyst nematodes are the biggest pest we deal with," Ferrie says. "Once you have them, they are almost impossible to eliminate. Rotating to corn for one year cuts the population in half, but even with more years of corn the population never gets much lower. "If you continue to let nematode populations build up, you will lose four to five more bushels per acre every year. In no-till fields, you can help keep populations in check by applying a burndown herbicide in the fall to control perennial weeds that serve as hosts to nematodes. Plant resistant varieties and rotate to non-host crops when possible." 11. Rotation pumps yield. Rotation almost always promotes higher soybean yields, Ferrie says. "It's the most consistent yield factor of anything we have studied, on every soil type. In our trials, rotating to corn for two years increased soybean yields by 5 bu. per acre. Three years of corn boosted bean yields by 7 bu. per acre, and four years of corn resulted in a 10- to 15-bu. yield increase." 12. Fix compacted layers. "It's much harder to get tillage responses in soybeans than in corn," Ferrie says. But that doesn't mean beans like compaction, he adds—it just means they are better at coping with it, especially if rain falls at the ideal time, during the reproductive stage. "While removing compacted layers may help soybeans, it will definitely help the corn you plant next season," he says. 13. When stress helps. Stressing plants may be a good thing—if you understand what you're doing. "Sometimes you can burn soybeans with diphenyl ether herbicides, such as Cobra, and get yield response, and sometimes not," Ferrie says. "In our plots, if we spray the herbicide under the right growing conditions and at the right time, and burn the main bud, we can trigger the plant into branching and setting more nodes and more pods, and shorten the plant as well. That response increases yield." 14. Don't waste seed. "It's hard to increase soybean yield by pushing population to the extent that you can with corn," Ferrie says. From 1992 through 2007, Ferrie compared seeding rates of 120,000, 160,000 and 240,000 viable seeds in row widths of 7½", 10", 15", 20", 30" and twin rows. "From those results, 120,000 would stand with or beat most populations in 10" and 15" rows," he says. "In 20" and 30" rows, the results were less consistent, but the worst population usually was 200,000 or higher." In 2008, a notoriously late spring when soybeans were not planted until the last day of June, things were different. "The 200,000 rate still wasn't the best, but for the first time, 120,000 fell short in all row spacings," Ferrie says. "In 2008, the 120,000 population got hurt worse in 20" and 30" spacings than in narrower rows. "That was because of the June 30 planting date. The indeterminate soybean varieties went into the reproductive stages too quickly, and we got short plants. The lesson is that if you are planting late, you have to kick up the population. After all, you don't double-crop soybeans at 120,000 plants per acre." 15. Don't leave yield in the field. Careless harvesting can knock bushels off that high yield you've worked so hard to produce. Adjust your combine's speed, concave clearance, cylinder speed and air velocity to conditions in each field. Keep knives and ledger plates sharp. Back to news

Recent soybean checkoff-sponsored research may give U.S. soybean farmers another tool to manage one of the weather challenges that plague them — drought.
The discovery of two new lines of drought-resistant soybeans "is more than just an insurance policy against drought conditions," says Tom Sinclair, University of Florida researcher. "These lines will help increase yields even in years with no obvious drought. These genes could be yield enhancers in most every year."
The lines yielded higher than commercial lines during tests in Arkansas, so seed companies may begin incorporating them into breeding programs soon. Research is being conducted comparing 3,500 samples of soybean lines collected around the world with another 12 lines initially identified as being drought-resistant.
It is part of a larger project, with drought research field plots at five universities and several industry partner sites across the country. "What we have is good, and we hope to find lines that are even better," says Sinclair.
The 12-year research project is unique in that it combined physiology research with breeding efforts. Such an approach is unique due to the complexity and long-term commitment required.
According to Sinclair, farmer checkoff funds were crucial to the research. He noted that most projects with such a lengthy time frame; that integrate multiple disciplines, such as plant physiology and breeding; and that take place at multiple universities usually struggle to find funding.
"The soybean checkoff supports research that helps soybean farmers increase yields and become more productive as a result," says Ken Dalenberg, United Soybean Board (USB) production chair and a soybean farmer from Mansfield, Ill.

Secure Communities: Latinos Take Immigration Battle to Obama's Footstep
Latinos in six cities railed against President Obama's immigration policies Wednesday – and threatened to turn their backs on him come Election Day.
The protestors criticized the president for his record on deportations and Secure Communities, the controversial program that requires local law enforcement to share information of people arrested with immigration officials. The Department of Homeland Security said earlier this month that it would expand the program nationwide by 2013.
The coalition of Latino groups simultaneously rallied in the following six cities: Chicago; Houston; Boston; Miami; Atlanta; and Charlotte. Organizers said they delivered petitions signed by tens of thousands of supporters.
Some 200 protestors even went to Obama's campaign office in Chicago to deliver the message, organizers said.
"We are here to try to save the Obama campaign from itself," said Roberto Lovato, one of the organizers. "If he continues with these massive deportations and Secure Communities, he's going to lose the election."
In a lengthy response, the White House said that DHS has for the "first time has prioritized the removal of people who have been convicted of crimes in the United States. It further defended its record of deportations, saying more than half of all removals are people with criminal records.
It said it was proud of Secure Communities, too.
"The Secure Communities Program is a powerful tool to keep the government's immigration enforcement resources where they belong – on those who fit within DHS's highest enforcement priorities, such as those who have committed crimes in the United States," said Cecilia Muñoz, the director of intergovernmental affairs for the White House.
The controversy over the program and its implementation has been criticized by politicians. Governors in New York, Massachusetts and Illinois – not to mention officials in other localities – wanted to withdraw from program.
In Los Angeles, meanwhile, The Associated Press said 200 people – carrying signs that read "Terminate Secure Communities" and waving Mexican and Brazilian flags – attended a public hearing on Secure Communities held by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and called for an end to the program.
"Every day I live the nightmare of this program," Blanca Pérez, 38, who said she was arrested in February for street vending without a permit, told The AP. "Now I am facing deportation for the simple act of selling ice cream in the street."
On Tuesday, the National Day Laborer Organizing Network released a report condemning Secure Communities and calling for its termination.
"This report confirms what immigrant communities have long known. The program called Secure Communities results in the opposite," the National Community Advisory Commission said in a statement. "Entangling local police in immigration enforcement is not just bad policy as the experts testify.
"Conscripting local police into immigration enforcement has provoked a massive civil rights crisis our country now faces," the statement continued. "The only suitable approach is to end Secure Communities."
The Department of Homeland Security, meanwhile, said in a statement that it has recently developed additional training for local law enforcement along with a new policy to protect domestic violence victims.
It also said it created the task force to make recommendations for other changes, recognizing "that there is room for improvement in the operation of the program."
ICE is currently running the program in 44 states and plans to achieve nationwide coverage in 2013.
Local law enforcement agencies routinely send fingerprints to the FBI for criminal background checks when an individual is arrested. Under Secure Communities, the FBI shares the fingerprints with Homeland Security to look for potentially deportable immigrants.
President Obama, whom the Latino community overwhelmingly supported in the 2008 election, has gotten mixed reviews. In recent months, he has made an effort to woo Hispanics, like visiting Puerto Rico and El Paso, and giving a speech before the National Council of La Raza.
At the Chicago rally, Oscar Chacón, executive director of the National Alliance of Latin American and Caribbean Communities, said the White House has his priorities mixed up.
"Secure Communities doesn't contribute any tangible benefit to anyone, it has to disappear," he said. "What makes the communities unsafe is the bad state of the economy."
