Site updated May 13th, 2001
|Welcome to my online home. Not much changes here very often, but below
is a rundown of some things I've done or am working on.
Who am I?
The Big Project that I'm now working on is editing Elysian Fiction, a semi-pro webzine featuring fantasy short fiction. The first issue will be available June 1st. If you're interested in submitting a story, here are the guidelines.
On the writing side, my first sold and published story, "The Ever-Rising Tide" is available through SFF-Net Publishing via the anthology The Age of Reason: Stories of the New Millenium, edited by Kurt Roth (ISBN 0966969812). That's the cover to the left (click on image to see bigger version). You can also buy it at Borders, Amazon.com, and Barnes & Noble. Suggested retail is 14.95. There's also a limited (55 copies) leather-bound hardcover, signed by all the authors, for $75.
I'm VERY pleased by the names that I'll be sharing the Table of Contents with, particularly my good friends Diana Rowland, Lisa Silverthorne, and Vera Nazarian. The whole experience has been a blast, the highlight so far being present for the book's debut at NASFIC. :-)
Mostly, though, I'm just a fan of SF/F, and the biggest part of that right now is my Short Fiction Roundup Web Site. I'm finally making an attempt to relaunch the site, and have even obtained my own domain for it (http://www.sfroundup.com/). Inside Short Fiction Roundup, you'll be able to find listings of most pro, and many semi-pro publications and stories from 1996 up to the present, as well as an author index for each year. My goal is not only to provide the definitive online resource for lovers of genre short fiction, but to stimulate discussion by providing a forum for reviews and comments on the stories. You can get an idea of what it will be like from the link to the old site above, while I'll try to provide information on the relaunch at the new domain.
One of the reasons I got behind on Short Fiction Roundup was my work on The Market List web site. It's an online market guide and resource for genre writers compiled by Christopher Holliday. Besides the web pages, I've also contributed some interview articles. The first, with author Melisa C. Michaels, I've posted on site here (Interview). The second and third, with Keith R.A. DeCandido (Editor at Byron Preiss Multimedia Company), and Liz Holliday (Editor of Odyssey magazine) are on The Market List site. I'm no longer involved with the site, and while it was a contributing factor to falling behind on my own project, I certainly don't regret the opportunities it provided to meet different people in the industry.
Besides writing fiction, I'm going to be playing with writing and recording some music over the coming months. Drop in to see how I'm progressing and to download some songs. At the end of it all, I may even have my own CD!
Back on May 2nd, 1998, I moderated the SFF-Net Nebula Chat with Vonda N. McIntyre as the online host live from the banquet in Santa Fe, NM. The above link gives details about the award, and you can read/download the chat transcript as well.
If you like games, especially those where treachery is the vital component, you might like to take a look at the Diplomacy game I was moderating for SFF-Net participants. Included with these pages is a tutorial on how to play, so that even spectators who have never heard of the game can enjoy the deceit, backstabbing, and other everyday behaviors of respectable world leaders. Unfortunately, the game fizzled to a stop when I didn't have time to keep up with it.
I'm also a big music fan, generally of 80s/90s alternative rock. On my other site is my Tony Carey/Planet P Project Fan Page, a collection of info and fan messages about the man, his band, and the greatest Science-Fiction Rock Album of all time.
And for your amusement, here's one of my science-fiction short stories, "Forty-Sixth Contact". I know I'm blowing my first rights and stuff by posting it here, but it was my second story ever, has already made the rounds, and is not in danger of being published anywhere but here by me. At least it's short, cute, and . . . well, short.
If you would like to drop me a line, you can e-mail me at email@example.com.
Or you can peek into my newsgroup here at news://news.sff.net/sff.people.jbailey (newsreader link) or http://webnews.sff.net/ to read and post to my newsgroup via a web browser to see what's the hot topic of the day.
If you find me too dull for your tastes (moi?), there are TONS of Other People hanging out on SFF.NET, so you're sure to find somebody interesting.

By GARY ARRINGTONSports Writer
It is very unusual for any team in high school basketball to go an entire season undefeated and it turns out that these Emery High Lady Spartans will not be one of those as they lost a nail biter last Thursday to the Lady Wildcats of Richfield High in overtime 67-66. Emery had soundly defeated Juab earlier in the week 63-37.
Against Richfield, Emery led 22-8 after the first quarter and the Spartans enjoyed as much as an 18-point lead in the first half before leading 37-28 at halftime. It has been extremely rare over the past few years that Emery would lose a game when they possessed a lead such as this.
If one was to look for a cause for the loss one could start with free throws. The first stat that jumps out is the amount of free throws actually shot; Richfield shot 36 and Emery shot 16. That disparity usually spells doom for the team with the lesser amount and it did this time.
The next stat that jumps out is the fact that Richfield made 75 percent of their free throws while the Spartans only made 44 percent of theirs. Richfield shot 20 more free throws and then made 19 more of those.
The next stat that jumps out is the fact that Emery missed so many shots in the paint. The fact is, Emery missed more than one lay-up in the game and as a team they shot poorly throughout the game.
Taylor Mann had a good game as she scored 30 points, pulled down eight rebounds, dished out two assists, had five blocked shots and came up with two steals. Mann scored 12 points in the first quarter, 11 points in the fourth quarter and two points in overtime.
Jessica Murray scored eight points in the first quarter on three baskets including a pair of 3-pointers and six points in overtime with another pair of 3-pointers. Murray finished with 18 points in the game along with three rebounds and four steals.
Abbie Kay scored nine points in the game had eight rebounds and three steals. Abbie fouled out in the fourth quarter after getting into foul trouble early in the game and spent considerable time on the bench.
Tayler Jewkes, Markette Tanner and Brooke Jensen all scored three points in the game.
Against Juab, Emery and Juab really played neck and neck through the first half of basketball. With 3:57 left in the first quarter the score in the game was 4-4. Juab opened the game in a 1-3-1 zone on defense as they looked to shut down the Emery interior game and make the Spartans beat them from the outside. They were successful early on. Emery then outscored Juab 9-3 over the rest of the first period.
The second quarter was more of the same. With four minutes left in the period the score was 17-14 for Emery and then Emery led at the half 24-20. Emery hit only one 3-point shot in the first half.
Emery outscored the Wasps 7-2 to start the third quarter and led 31-22 with two minutes gone in the period. Emery then scored the next eight points over the next minute and a half and led 39-22 to put away the Wasps early in the second half. Jessica Murray hit three straight 3-pointers in the period to help Emery build their lead. Emery won the third quarter 22-9.
Apparently not satisfied with their lead, Emery scored the first six points of the fourth quarter in the first 90 seconds and then the subs for both teams started hitting the floor.
Emery, after hitting only one 3-pointer in the first half, hit seven of them in the second half. Murray had four of those and Jenni Stinson had another three.
Mann and Murray led the team with 16 points each. Mann also had four rebounds, two assists and two blocked shots. Murray also had six steals, two assists and a rebound. Abbie Kay finished with 14 points, had five rebounds, two assists and a blocked shot. Stinson finished with nine points.
Brooke Jensen scored four points and freshmen Blayr Jeffs and Jeridi Price each scored two points.
After the Juab game, Coach Steven Gordon to his team, "Our press didn't work in the first half but our man to man defense did work in the second half. We gave them confidence early on and let them hang around too long. We have got to get after it better." Emery is now 11-1 for the season and 2-1 in region play. Richfield is 12-1 for the season and 3-0 in region play. Emery will play ALA this Tuesday in Spanish Fork in a non-region game and will then resume region play at Delta on Thursday.

NHL News and Notes
Robert Cleave
June 23 2010 06:08PM
With player movement beginning to heat up, it seems like a good time to have a look around the league for a few items of interest. This week, the first significant trades of the off-season are in the books, the players take the escalator, and the HHoF's new class includes one of the Flames' founders.
Pretty quiet in Flamesland. In fact, Domebeers has it about right. We should start seeing this weekend if Sutter can re-organize his payroll, or if the moves he made during the year are about to ham-string his summer plans. In other organizational news, head scout Tod Button laid out a defence of the club's recent drafting in an interview with the Herald's Vicki Hall. Between the Phaneuf pick and the Backlund pick, the Flames had three iffy first round selections, with only Pelech even in hailing range of the NHL, so Button's claim that the Flames got better at drafting after Sutter came in is a bit questionable, although some of the picks in recent seasons do have potential.
Elsewhere, Steve MacFarlane examines whether tanking in order to rebuild the franchise should be considered. It's always easy to advocate tanking as a possibility when you don't pay for tickets, of course, so I try not to suggest that the club go that route. It's no guarantee of success, either. St. Louis has several nice young players, including a first overall pick in Erik Johnson, but that team's not really that close to winning anything. Atlanta picked high forever, and all they have to show for it is, well, nothing at all. No panaceas out there, in other words.
Finally, the Herald asked a Council of Elders what they would do to fix the club, and the usual "find a #1 center" stuff quickly popped up. I'll say this as directly as I can: teams don't trade those dudes unless something has gone very wrong, and the Flames aren't exactly sitting with many assets these days. I also noted that not one of them said "overpaying for a few old Dmen is a lousy plan".
Stan Bowman began the purge in Chicago this afternoon, sending Dustin Byfuglien, Brent Sopel, Ben Eager and Akim Aliu to Atlanta for Marty Reasoner, Jeremy Morin and the 24th and 54th picks in this weekend's draft. The Hawks will save about 5 million in cap space, and Atlanta receives a player who really is more famous than good. Dustin Byfuglien might have terrorized Roberto Luongo, which was very nice for those of us who like to see the Canucks humbled, but he's been a pretty indifferent player in the big scheme of things.
The players voted to extend the CBA and build in the 5% growth factor, which will see the cap increase to 59.4 million dollars for 10/11. There are more than a few teams, and the Flames are assuredly in that number, that are quite relieved to have the wiggle room. I do wonder if the players will get tired of the escrow clawbacks that we've seen over the last couple of seasons, but apparently other needs have won out again.
Nathan Horton had his wish granted, as the Panthers sent the winger and Gregory Campbell Boston's way, with Dennis Wideman and the Bruins #15 pick headed the other way. Dennis Wideman is a nice enough player, but he's not cheap for what he is, so if Horton can stay healthy, he's a good pickup for the B's. They do have a number of pretty expensive forwards on the payroll, though, with 7 of them slated to make at least 3.5 million next year and Blake Wheeler, Johnny Boychuk and Mark Stuart are all in need of new deals. Someone has to go, and Michael Ryder, Wheeler or maybe Marc Savard could be moved, particularly if the Bruins end up with Tyler Seguin on Friday night.
The Habs, fresh off shipping Client Halak to St. Louis, decided that keeping Tomas Plekanec around was worth 30 million over the next six seasons. He's a decent player, and cuts a fine figure in a turtleneck, but I do have the sense the Canadiens paid right at the top of the market for a man who plays against the other team's second lines on many nights.
Up in Shelbyville, the Oilers decided that having a coach that wore an onion on his belt might not be the best plan for their future, so Quinn is out in favour of Tom Renney. I suspect that having a coach who understands that occasionally matching lines can benefit a team will be a bonus for the Oil, and I say that as someone who spent a season watching his team's coach routinely run its fourth line over the boards when the other team iced the puck. There are a times in a game where active bench management can steal you a game, and that just wasn't Pat Quinn's deal. Jonathan Willis pretty much had this deal sussed out last spring, for what it's worth.
Scott Niedermayer chose to move on yesterday, ending an 18 year journey filled with virtually nothing but success, both personally and on a team level. His relocation to the West Coast was the beginning a nice run for the Ducks, with a 4th Cup win during his second season in Orange County. Earl Sleek broke out the Photoshop to send the grizzled one off to a well-earned retirement.
Evgeni Nabokov will be elsewhere next season, as the Sharks advised the 34 year old that he was surplus to requirements. I can't really argue with Wilson's thinking on this one. Nabokov is a decent goalie, but not much more, and he appears to want a premium price for his services. There are entirely too many goalies that are roughly equivalent to the Russian stopper who will command a much smaller paycheque, and a team that needs to sign Joe Pavelski and would like to re-up Patrick Marleau had to make this sort of choice.
Finally, the Hockey Hall of Fame chose its new class yesterday, with more than a bit of controversy. Dino Ciccarelli was the only NHL player selected, with men like Joe Nieuwendyk, Mark Howe, Pavel Bure and Eric Lindros among the excluded. I feel a bit bad for Mark Howe as an old WHA fan, because his excellence with New England is often forgotten or held against him when assessing his career. On a sunnier note, one of the Flames' original owners, Doc Seaman, was added to the Hall's membership via the builder category.
That's all for this week. Like most of you, I'm hopeful that at least some the Flames' less palatable contracts are on the move by this time next week.
..."overpaying for a few old Dmen is a lousy plan". So very true. But,
...paying a 27 year old 20 goal scorer 5 million a season and trading away a 25 year old goalie that put you into the conference final to make cap room for that 27 year old 20 goal scorer you paid 5 million, an even worse plan.
June 23 2010, 07:26PM
Well done Robert. I like the deal with Horton for the Bruins but will be good for both if they can turn that pick into a decent NHLer.
The big BUFF trade is a overpay for a playoff hero but Chicago did a good job of dumping salary and not really changing much.
Plekanec is at the top of what he may be worth. Decent player but I doubt he will be that effective in the last 2-3 years of that one. What could Montreal do though? Not too much out there in regards to decent 2nd line/2-way centres.
Will miss Nieds but it was time. Best of luck to ya Scott!
June 23 2010, 09:08PM
We would have traded them Horcoff.....
~Do you think Sutter will take Moreau~
Word coming down from the AJC's Chris Vivlamore that "Another deal for Thrashers coming tonight. That should allow Chicago deal to happen." This, of course, in reference to the Thrashers need to get under 50 contracts before the Byfuglien deal goes through. Also, James Duthie mentioned that Craig Ramsey will be the Thrashers new head coach.
...haha, funny thought entered my head. What if Sutter signed Jokinen?
June 23 2010, 11:03PM
...haha, funny thought entered my head. What if Sutter signed Jokinen?
I don't think Sutter would want to revisit that error quite so soon.
...haha, funny thought entered my head. What if Sutter signed Jokinen?
he would get fired
...honestly though. What if he could get a bargain on him. Say 3 million per? I know it's almost not worth discussing, but crazier things have happened.
June 24 2010, 12:12PM
...honestly though. What if he could get a bargain on him. Say 3 million per? I know it's almost not worth discussing, but crazier things have happened.
I really wouldn't touch Jokinen again, for any price. The Flames aren't a Jokinen away from winning anything...they might as well give Backlund the at bats to see if he's worth a damn.
@Kent Wilson
...fair enough.
June 24 2010, 12:58PM
On the Scouting article - Tod Button shouldn't be hanging his hat on the Phaneuf pick. For two reasons:
1.) That's a choice that Darryl Sutter would have made absent a scouting department. Phaneuf hit every single Darryl sweet spot and it was a fait accompli he'd be chosen by CGY once their turn came and he was still there.
2.) 2003 is perhaps the deepest draft in the last decade. The team could have pulled one of the top 30 names out of hat and still probably done well.
who was the top 15 in 2003??
June 24 2010, 02:54PM
who was the top 15 in 2003??
1.) MA Fleury 2.) Eric Staal 3.) Nathan Horton 4.) Nikolai Zherdev 5.) Thomas Vanek 6.) Milan Michalek 7.) Ryan Suter 8.) Braydon Coburn 9.) Phaneuf 10.) Andrei Kostitsyn 11.) Jeff Carter 12.) Hugh Jessiman (ha ha!) 13.) Dustin Brown 14.) Brent Seabrook 15.) Robert Nilsson

The summer of 2014 will mark the inaugural year of the SUMA Summer Camp, giving junior high and high school students the opportunity to experience college and professional level instruction in multiple artistic disciplines. Jump start your teenager's summer with a fun and informative class, or classes, that will expand their creativity while providing a new challenge to explore throughout the summer months. The first two sessions on Public Art and Digital Design have met with success and a positive response from the campers whose work includes a newly painted mural in the Frontier Homestead Museum in Cedar City.
The Traditional Media session runs from July 28- August 8, 2014. In this session students will explore major themes in art history and apply theories of visual art masters during hands on workshops. Professional artists will share valuable skills and techniques to take participants painting and drawing skills to the next level. Students will have the opportunity to create portfolio quality artwork that can be used for college applications and professional interviews. In addition to valuable mentorship, each participant will receive over $50 in supplies included in their registration for the camp.
Nathan McDonald, creator and director of the Southern Utah Museum of Art Summer Camp for Teenagers, is enthusiastic about the campers' creativity and commitment to their projects. "We are so proud of the progress that our students have made during these two-week camps. Our visiting artists have done a wonderful job passing along their talent and passion for art. Their work has resonated with our students and has inspired them to create a lot of fun and meaningful artwork."
This remarkable program now in its inaugural year was launched after receiving generous grants from the Utah Division of Arts & Museums and the Cedar City RAP Tax.
As the Southern Utah Museum of Art (SUMA) begins construction this summer, SUMA is excited to build upon the Braithwaite Fine Art Gallery's current programing. As the building grows the educational and community outreach will as well. The SUMA Summer Camp program is one of many new and exciting things happening at the Southern Utah Museum of Art (SUMA).

"The shoe, its comfort, color and style are all great. I give this shoe a low rating because the shoe material shows that it is old stock. The material is actually extra soft and wrinkles with very little flexing. It will be peeling soon ...I know it. Ugh!"

UMass President Robert Caret and in-coming Amherst Chancellor Kumble Subbaswammy were in Springfield today (Monday) to greet the city's elected and business leaders. Local officials say they want a bigger U-Mass footprint in the city — and school officials say they are willing to consider it. But they add that as they study placement of a satellite campus in the area, they will be looking for meaningful incentives. Springfield Mayor Domenic Sarno says he's appreciative of the University's ongoing partnerships with the city that were begun under previous administrations – from education collaborations, to bio and life sciences research at Baystate Medical Center. But he says there's more that the University could do to help stimulate economic development in western Massachusetts largest city, such as creating a satellite campus.
"And it just only makes sense to me that U-Mass should have a much more pronounced physical presence in downtown Springfield."
The idea of a satellite campus possibly in Springfield is being considered as part of feasibility study by the U-Mass Donahue Institute, according to University President Robert Caret. He says he's expecting the institute's recommendations in a few weeks.
"Where the need and support come together and that's the greatest, that's where we'll try the first one or two, and if that happens to be Springfield that would be great. But part of that will be what is the entity- the city itself- willing to put up. What is the business community willing to put up, whether it's free rent or building or operating costs? Because if we can have a partner, we can do it much more easily."
Chancellor-elect Kumble Subbaswammy says he's looking to strengthen ties with Springfield, though he's non-committal on creating a satellite campus there.
"I want to focus on what can UMass-Amherst do to meet the needs that the Mayor would identify in the city rather than think about any particular solution."
Subaswammy begins his new job as Chancellor July 1st.

Radio Thrives in Sub-Saharan Africa
When he agreed to teach seminars in Liberia, Rick Rockwell never imagined that just getting to class would be a challenge. And then he experienced the seven-hour drive between Gbarnga and Zwedru in the uplands of Liberia.
"The national highway becomes a one lane road of dirt and mud," Rockwell said. "You never think about taking all day to cover about 175 miles when you travel. But you learn in Liberia to take nothing for granted."
Using generators and boxes of pre-printed handouts, Rockwell traveled through Liberia over the course of two weeks conducting multimedia lectures about radio for developing communities. Rockwell's trip was sponsored by the U.S. Department of State and a two-person team from the U.S. Embassy in Monrovia provided support throughout the trip.
Radio journalists from more than half of Liberia's 15 counties traveled to the all-day sessions conducted in both Gbarnga and Zwedru. For some of these journalists it was their first-ever training session with an international speaker. For others, it had been almost a decade since similar training sessions were offered. Rockwell, who directs American University's International Media program for the School of Communication, developed a special curriculum on development communication for radio journalists for these sessions. But generating the energy and enthusiasm needed to teach all day in 90-degree heat wasn't easy.
"We had just one fan in Zwedru, and we used that to cool the projector, which still overheated. Luckily the Peace Corps director in town had a spare," Rockwell said.
And then there was the large poisonous centipede that crawled into the seminar in Gbarnga and curled up near Rockwell's foot. "That was certainly a first for me. One of the radio journalists immediately asked if we could take a break and he swept it out of the room with a stick."
Rockwell says he now wants to offer a similar course - minus the centipede - for students in the AU International Media program, which is a joint degree program administrated between SOC and the School of International Service.
"Radio is still the primary medium in Africa and radio journalists are finding ways to extend their programs to cells phones. Students in our programs want to be part of using these evolving media systems to work on improving basics in Africa like education, health, and the environment. So this was an opportunity for me to move beyond development theory and develop some practical course work," he said. "I hope down the line students will benefit from this opportunity and experience and take these lessons out to the field themselves."
The curriculum for the seminar program included programming for development with an emphasis on useful content for rural and agricultural areas, along with ideas for sustainability. The Alliance for Liberian Community Radio (which goes by the abbreviation ALICOR) requested the training initiative. In a letter to Rockwell after the seminars, ALICOR's Secretary General Emmanuel Johnson wrote: "I think all praises should go to you for the passion and concern shown in helping to mold the minds of Liberian journalists, especially at the community radio level."
"One of our discoveries during the trip was that there are no meteorological reports or zoned weather forecasts for Liberia beyond Monrovia," Rockwell said. At least a handful of sub-Saharan countries offer such reports, and "of course, this is something we truly take for granted in the United States. This puts Liberia at a competitive disadvantage," he noted. Rockwell continues to consult with the embassy on ways to provide this basic service for Liberia's community radio stations.

Last week at the Carbon Duals wrestling tournament, Emery wrestlers did very well for themselves. In an 11-team tournament, two Spartans finished in first place and three others finished in third place. Emery finished in fifth place as a team.

Landon Huntsman and Hayden Hatch also finished in third place and they each had a 7-2 record. Landon wrestles at 160 pounds and Hayden wrestles at 135 pounds.
Mike Jones, Drew Bohn and Clay Collard also wrestled well but each finished just out of medal contention.
Participating in this year's tournament were Carbon A and B, Park City, Grand, Monticello, American Leadership, Logan, Duchesne, Tooele, Emery and Juan Diego.
In the JV tournament held in conjunction with varsity tournament, Kenny Baker wrestled and finished third and Zack Walls wrestled and finished in first place. The JV tournament is a round robin affair.
After the meet Head Coach Buck Taylor talked about his team, "We have potential, lots of potential this season. We've got some good veteran leadership and some really good younger wrestlers. These are a bunch of tough kids; they have come a long way this year. They amaze me every time that we hit the mat. These kids know a lot of stuff; they just need to apply it now. If they continue working hard and getting smarter, we could have a good season."
Although Taylor would like more kids to be on the wrestling team, in talking with him he is quite pleased with the quality of those wrestling. Emery wrestles North Sevier in Castle Dale this Thursday night.

Security features of the new Georgia DL/IDs are designed to prevent counterfeiting or alteration of information and photographs and make it easier to identify fraudulent licenses and identification cards.
The Interim DL/ID is printed on a secure paper, with color backgrounds, color images, color photo, and customer signature. When properly folded the Interim DL/ID is similar in size to the permanent DL/ID.
Customers who are issued an ID for Disabled Person may provide medical information which will appear on the back of the ID card.
The new Commercial DLs and permits will be labeled with the word "Commercial" and will be printed in a distinctive blue text.
The new cards will contain a bar code that is compliant with AAMVA (American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators) standards. The bar code is designed to allow access by law enforcement, retailers and government entities. The barcode will contain the information defined on the front of the card and can be used to expedite verification that the front of the document has not been altered.
Click on link below for the AAMVA website;
The new Permanent DL/IDs has a new appearance, contains more security features, and will be mailed to you from a secure production facility.
The process, including the time frame, will be the same as the current automated renewal program.
Yes! Georgia residents who are United States citizens may continue to apply to register to vote as part of many transactions conducted at the DDS' customer service centers or via the internet.
Customers will have their Permanent DL/ID mailed to them before the Interim's expiration date if they meet all eligibility and verification requirements. The new cards are centrally produced at a secure production facility in Georgia, then mailed to the cardholder, who will generally receive the new DL/ID within 30 days of receiving the interim document.
Mailing from a centralized facility will reduce the opportunity for fraud and theft by operating the document printing process in a highly secure facility. The permanent DL/ID will be mailed to the customer address on record with DDS from the secured production facility located in Georgia.
The new DL/IDs will position Georgia to become compliant should the State choose to comply with any federal licensing mandates.
Yes, DL/IDs, Instructional Permits and Limited Permits will remain separate documents. Customer may have different documents based on the services they are requesting.
It depends on what is being issued. If class restrictions apply, separate Interims will be issued.
Yes. For first issuance, renewals or replacements, customers are still required to provide original documentation to satisfy identity, residency and citizenship requirements.
Click on link below for a list of acceptance documentation;
Not at this time.
Yes. Georgia residents who are United States citizens may continue to apply to register to vote as part of many transactions conducted at the DDS' customer service centers or via the internet.
The DDS is conducting an extensive public outreach campaign to educate the public, governments and businesses that Georgia will be issuing a newly designed more secure DL/ID which will ultimately change the issuance process.
Yes. The process for all applicants regardless of age is to be issued an Interim DL/ID when visiting a CSC and then receiving a Permanent DL/ID via mail.
Yes. An important security feature is the orientation of the "Under 21" year old DL/IDs. The Interim and Permanent DL/IDs will be printed vertically for easy identification of customers under the age of 21 years. Multiple levels of card security will deter tampering and reduce fraud.
When you receive the Permanent DL/ID, the Interim license should be destroyed in accordance with Georgia law and to safeguard personal information.
The customer should review their Permanent DL/ID. If, the customer should find a discrepancy with their DL/ID, they should immediately return to the CSC and reinitiate the process to correct the error.
Yes, the Permanent DL/IDs will be mailed to a customer's address on record with DDS. It is not apparent from the envelope that a DL/ID is included. As a security precaution, it cannot be forwarded to another address. If undeliverable, it will be returned to DDS.
Yes. There are several states that issue Interims and mail customer's Permanent DL/IDs from a central issuance facility.
In a continuing effort to combat document fraud and ultimately protect the citizens of Georgia, customers will now be issued an Interim DL/ID when visiting one of our Customer Service Centers (CSCs). This will allow for additional time to verify eligibility. The security and integrity of printing the Permanent DL/ID requires special equipment and verification processes that are cost prohibitive to place in each CSC.
No. The Requirements have not changed to obtain a Georgia DL/ID.
Click link below to obtain detailed information on the requirements;
Yes. Previously issued Georgia DL/IDs will remain valid until their expiration date.
The Permanent DL/ID has a new appearance, contains more security features, and will be mailed to you from a secure production facility located in Georgia.
The new DL/IDs will contain the same information as existing DL/IDs. However, some information may be in a different location on the new cards. The new license will display the name on more than one line. This will allow for the complete customer name to be displayed on the license. Additionally, the address field will contain more characters allowing, in most cases, the license to display the full address. The new license will clearly display the county of residence instead of a code that may not be clear to the customer.
Yes. The new DL/IDs will contain a high quality digitized color photo to ensure quality of the customer's image. It also includes two smaller images of the customer.
If you qualify for internet services, you will automatically receive the new DL design once it is available. To be qualified, the DDS must have a valid photo and signature saved on file digitally, and there can be no outstanding cancellations, suspensions or revocations on your driving record. DDS highly recommends that you use our online services when possible.

Please visit our Teen Driver page for more information.
No. Previously issued DL/IDs will remain unexpired until their expiration date. The customer will obtain a newly designed DL/ID upon renewal. Remember that you will not receive a Permanent DL/ID on the same day you visit a CSC, so plan ahead. Georgia DL/IDs can be renewed up to 150 days before the expiration date.
Non-citizen DL/IDs will be labeled "Limited Term" in the title area and includes the expiration date and the words "Limited Term" printed in purple text.
The text color, header color, and abbreviation codes vary depending on the type of DL/IDs and/or special permits. For example, non-commercial licenses will be titled in black text, commercial licenses in blue text, and some limited permits will contain red text.
The Interim DL/ID is designed to last as long as it is unexpired, under normal wear and tear. The Customer should exercise the same care of the Interim DL/ID as they would for paper money.
No. The requirements will not change to exchange an unexpired out of state DL/ID for a Georgia DL/ID.
Click below to obtain detailed information on the requirements;

Yes. The date on which an under 21 teen reaches age 21 will not be on the new DL/IDs.
The DL/IDs' physical dimensions are the same as the current DL/IDs. However, there will be a vertical orientation of the DL/ID if the card holder is under the age of 21.
See the Fees and Terms page for more information on License/ID/Permit card fees and terms.
Customers should return to a CSC with appropriate documentation and request another Interim.
See the Fees and Terms page for more information.

"Mard hoon, dekh loonga. I-T department yad rakhe, BJP ki sarkar ayegi tab kahan jaoge?" The warning — reminiscent of the time when "angry youngmen" ruled Bollywood, was sent out by Nitin Gadakri, still seething over his last-minute exit from the race for the BJP chief's post.
Though facing charges of irregular business practices, Gadkari looked on course to be the BJP president for the second time running but then income-tax officials decided to visit the offices of his Purti group's investor companies on January 22, a day before he was to file papers.
The visits came in handy for his detractors within the party and he had to opt out in favour of Rajnath Singh.
So, when Gadkari returned to his home town on Thursday, I-T officials were the obvious target. "Where will you go once the BJP comes to power? There will be no Chidambaram or Sonia to save them, once the Congress is out of power," he told a crowd of supporters.
Holding the ruling Congress responsible for the I-T action, he said some people were conspiring against him and he would name them.
"As the BJP president I had to maintain dignity and exercise restraints. Now, I'm a free man. I will expose all corrupt Congress politicians," he said.
He said the party was also blackmailing Samajwadi Party leader Mulayam Singh and Bahujan Samaj Party chief Mayawati by using the CBI.

I'm an older guy and have owned many pairs of pants over the years & like I said so far I think their great.
From: Mike, Elmhurst, IL
Comments: These pants were a gift from my wife for Christmas. A few weeks later, I wore a in a game. I went to tighten the strap and it ripped off. I had to use tape to keep the pants up to finish the game. I'm a little disappointed in the quality as the stitching that held the strap broke rather easy. IW agreed to return them but I probably won't replace with the same pants. Disappointed in Easton for a less than quality product.

"These shoes are a knockout. Pointier toe than the image shows, and great olive laces. Since the front of my feet are wide and my heel/ ball of foot is narrow, these shoes gap around the upper topline on my feet. I'm going to see if breaking them in helps. Also, the toebox could be roomier, but it's an exchange for the pointy toe."

See iPhone in action.Watch Video
Cutting-edge communication
Lightning speed is essential to Aftonbladet. News must be reported fast and accurately day and night — whether the story is Sweden's royal wedding, a major political event or the latest sports. Blogs must be updated, from the newsroom or the road. Editors must be kept informed. All that is possible with iPhone.
"The iPhone has changed the way I work, and the readers' way of getting the news. I can be connected all the time," says Jenny Alexandersson, Royal Reporter for Aftonbladet.
With a tap, multimedia communication
Alexandersson should know. She travels worldwide with Sweden's Crown Princess, constantly checking information, writing and submitting articles, liaising with colleagues and keeping tabs on readers' reaction.
iPhone's versatility helps her compete successfully with rivals. With two taps of a finger, her iPhone becomes a tape recorder or a high-quality camera for instant photos. "I notice when I meet colleagues from other newspapers that they don't have the same speed in what they are doing," she says.
Alexandersson can check which news articles are most popular. She can use an Aftonbladet brand app, Varumärket, for detailed information about how to reach specific target groups in her audience. Or she can use Vision, an internal switchboard app that allows her to 'log out' with a quick shake of her iPhone — so she is identified as unavailable for phone calls.
She says it didn't take her long to appreciate the full value of iPhone. "When I first got one, I was happy that there were so many fun applications. But I soon realized that iPhone made it possible for me to leave my desk in a totally different way. I was not tied to my workplace and it was a fantastic feeling."
In fact all employees at the media house have an iPhone, from top executives to receptionists and security guards. "Everyone at Aftonbladet needs mobility," says Oscar Edholm, CIO, at Schibsted Sverige, Aftonbladet's owner. "We don't see it as just a phone," he adds. "It has replaced so many different workplace devices."
Enriching the brand
Aftonbladet's three powerful internal iPhone apps help streamline the workflow. They also convey core company values. For example, the Vision switchboard app shows a photo alongside the phone number of every user. "Who shall we work with? Who shall we reach? That's what we wanted to communicate," says Edholm.
Likewise, the Varumärket brand app presents the company philosophy via iPhone. "For instance, we have identified five or six different target groups of consumers," says Martin Belak, Senior Developer and Head of IT Innovation. "We have video snippets, and we have samples of articles that will appeal to them."
A third internal iPhone app, Butiksappen, allows employees in the field to give feedback about retail displays. It's important, says Belak, to ensure that the newspaper stands look neat and tidy, are properly stocked and are near the cashier. The app uses geocoding. "This could have been done on the web," he notes. "But it is so much easier to do it using an internal app."
Aftonbladet built its internal apps with the iPhone Software Developer Kit -- and Apple developer tools. "We found it very simple," says Belak. "You get started quickly and in just about a week you can have a finished application that you can run. This is because the SDK is very clear, contains everything you need and is well-defined."
Belak notes the additional advantage of iPhone being a clearly defined product, compared with other smart phones. That's a boon particularly for his IT department. "You have one screen size. And you always know what utilities you have to work with," he says. "It's the same with our websites. You have a clear target group to develop for — iPhone users," he says.
Secure and effortless distribution
In Sweden, the constitution requires that information from journalistic sources is protected to the highest degree — another reason why iPhone was an automatic choice for Aftonbladet.
"We're pleased with the level of security that iPhone automatically provides" says Edholm. "With the ability to create complex passwords, device and data encryption on the phone and our internal profile distribution, we're confident our data is secure".
Edholm recalls that iPhone worked right out of the box. Aftonbladet's users need only about 15 minutes of instruction. "The roll-out of the iPhones has been amazingly simple," he says. "We perform a quick installation and when the user receives their iPhone, it has the apps, email, contacts and calendar – all synced and ready to go."
Not surprisingly, employees say that iPhone makes them feel more in control. "We are a media company," says Edholm. "We work 24 hours a day. With iPhone, I've noticed that it's more like having a sense of security in knowing that you haven't missed anything rather than creating stress about always being connected," he explains.
A definitive product
For everyone at Aftonbladet, it seems there's just no better business device than iPhone. "Aftonbladet's strength, historically, is to be cutting-edge and not afraid to test new things," concludes Belak. "So it was completely natural for us to adopt the iPhone – to stay at the forefront of global media growth."

John J. Fry
Professor of Political Science, Department Chair,
Academic Dean, and Director of Foundations Program
on faculty since 2003
Phone: 708.239.4863
E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com
If John Fry did not teach history, he might teach the joy of being a college professor. He writes, "I love teaching at Trinity. I love history, I love the students, and I love the sense of community among the faculty. My goal is to enable students to think about the past and grasp how to support a point with evidence from the past."
Fry enjoys his job most when students begin to make connections between the past and the present—when they understand that the way they live today has been shaped by the choices that people made in the past. "These are not just their families' choices but the choices of political, economic, and religious leaders from 50, 100, 500 years ago and more. Even more importantly, I want students to come away with a deeper understanding of Christ's work from studying history. History is our tutor in that it shows us our sin and leads us to Christ."
Fry came to Trinity in 2003 to help build the College's history program. He graduated from Geneva College with a bachelor's degree in history in 1991. He then earned two master's degrees, one in library science at the University of Pittsburgh and another in history at Duquesne University. He later earned a Ph.D. at the University of Iowa.
Fry has published two books. His most recent one appeared just last summer: Almost Pioneers: One Couple's Homesteading Adventure in the West. (http://almostpioneers.wordpress.com) It tells the story of Laura and Earle Smith, a couple from Iowa who homesteaded in Wyoming during the 1910s. The manuscript was written by Laura, and Fry added footnotes to give the background of people, places, and events, and wrote an afterword to place the Smiths' story in historical context. This year is the one-hundredth anniversary of the Smith's moving to the West. His first book, The Farm Press, Reform, and Rural Change, 1895-1920, was published in 2005 and investigates what farmers in the Midwest were reading at the turn of the twentieth century.
He is also an authority on the biography and works of Laura Ingalls Wilder and has presented public lectures both at Trinity and at Grove City College in Pennsylvania about Wilder's influence on American culture and politics. From 2004 to 2009, he served as the director of the Newberry Seminar in Rural History, which brought rural history scholars from across the country to discuss their work at the Newberry Library in downtown Chicago.
As chair of the history department, Fry teaches both of the college's general education history courses, as well as upper-level American history courses, history methods courses, and occasionally the history of the modern Middle East.
Away from the classroom, Fry enjoys reading books, taking walks, riding bikes, and camping with his family. Married to his wife, Paula, since 1992, they have four children: Deborah, Stephen, Benjamin, and Daniel. They attend Westminster Presbyterian Church (O. P. C.) in Indian Head Park, Illinois.

"Is engineering dying? It isn't clear, but in developed countries around the world young people would rather go to the dentist than go into engineering,"writes Dave Goldbergin the October issue ofPE. "Law, business, and medicine—just about anything but engineering—seem to be the preference of today's youth."
Goldberg, a former professor of entrepreneurial engineering and president and founder of ThreeJoy Associates Inc., says the future needs more capable engineers, but something happens to students on their way to becoming engineers. He sees three reasons engineering may be dying:
1. Engineering education is upside-down and backward. Engineering education is a math-science death march in which mathematics and science are viewed as "the fundamentals" and design and technology are viewed as mere "applications."
2. Engineering education is embedded in a dysfunctional culture that delights in the failure of those it educates. It is common enough to have become a cliché. An engineering professor stands at the front of a class and says, "Look to your right, look to your left, two of the three of you won't be here next year."
3. Engineering is perceived as a low-status profession in which the engineer is socially captive to the will of nonengineers. There is a belief that engineers often work in organizations in which they have little control over the work they do, following the orders of professional managers, who carry out goals set by corporate chieftains.
Read the rest ofGoldberg's article, including his suggestions for what to do in the October issue ofPE.
What do you think?
Published October 26, 2012 by NSPE
Filed under: Education,
re: Is Engineering Dying?
I agree.
I work a consulting business part time, but I have a full-time "real job".
My education was a mathematics death march. My managers and "bean counters" make all the decisions. We are expected to fix problems and deliver product based on the promises made by sales people. Let's fix it.
We have to do more to gain respect, but I am unsure what to do.
re: Is Engineering Dying?
I really have no idea, I am currently a student at the University of Louisville Speed Scientific and Engineering School and there are a lot of students. I actually feel there are too many!!! But on the side note that is probably because we have a good Engineering program and students come from all around to study.
re: Is Engineering Dying?
His comments are dead accurate and reflect my less than fun experience studying Chemical Engineering 20 years ago.
I'm back for a second helping studying Mechanical this time. I see nothing has really changed in the past two decades. Fortunately I have 20 years experience from the military on how to plow through all the bureacracy and BS that is the world of Acedemia. I pass that on to the 19-21 years olds I see floundering around me when ever I can.
Engineering school still seems to be nothing more than 4+ years of trick questions and unit conversions drudgery rather than actually doing...you know...Engineering.
If I didn't need the damn license to do what I want to do with my second career I wouldn't even bother.
re: Is Engineering Dying?
I remember those days as a student when we were told to look at those on each side of us etc. As a professor of 40 years, I prided myself in starting the first class each year by telling the students that my goal was to have everyone of them pass with a standard of knowledge in the course that was acceptable to the profession. I have never known anyone to learn in a culture of fear.
Also, the courses in math and science,taught by non-engineers were often not geared to the "engineering mind". It was not until I was taught by an applied math professor that I realized why differential equations existed and what types of real-world problems they could solve. The early university math courses are usually taught by "recreational math" professors, who get their kicks from the thrill of solving the problem, even if the problem has no useful application.
Another problem is that most professors are hired for their research abilities and many have little practical engineering work experience. While this is changing, as there is more interaction with industry and real world experience, only those who go into research will ever use the level of math taught in most undergraduate engineering programs.
re: Is Engineering Dying?
I'd have to agree. What I studied in engineering school has nothing to do with what I do now in the working world at a consulting engineering firm: tedious drudgery. I even got a P.E. license, only to discover that it's worthless.
I would get out of this industry if I had something else to go to.
