Credit for Prior Learning
At National Louis University, your personal and professional experience and knowledge may be worth college credit. Colleges and universities often refer to this knowledge as prior learning. NLU's Prior Learning Assessment office offers several programs for students to demonstrate prior college-level learning including; Credit by Portfolio, Credit by Examination, Credit by Licenses and Certifications.
Credit by Portfolio
ACL301 - Perspectives on Prior Learning: This 2QH course provides a structured experience in which students learn to recognize, document, and validate learning from life and work experiences for potential college credit. Throughout this course, students are offered group and individual assistance in the development of a portfolio documenting their prior learning experiences and evidence of achievement of specific learning outcomes. This course is offered on a quarterly basis, both online and at various site locations. Undergraduate students enrolled in the BSM, BSMIS, ABS, HCL, Human Services, Criminal Justice and Communication programs are currently eligible to take this course.
Student learning outcomes are assessed and credit awarded through the institution's faculty evaluation process. Submission and assessment of one Portfolio essay is included in ACL301 tuition.

One witness told us, "It sort of came on pretty suddenly. Everyone got pretty quiet. She left crying, and then her boyfriend followed her, but her parents remained." A second witness said, "She told the server, 'We just need a few minutes,' and then she walked out and didn't return." A third witness said, "Her father said, 'Let's not talk about it tonight; it's her birthday.' " A rep for Hathaway, who turned 28, acknowledged she was at Tocqueville but said the drama "never happened . . . The only time Anne left the table was to take a phone call. She did not leave the table upset."

Hi. I recently upgraded to ISPConfig 184.108.40.206, but never used any admin function until now. Now I had to create a new DB user/db, and noticed after several minutes the credentials were not valid. So I checked with mysql's root, and nor db and user were created. I checked cron and seems to be executed regularly, with no particular error... Anyone having the same issue? thanks
Thats a config issue on your sver, so its unlikely that omeone lse has the exact same problem. See sticky post in forum for debug instructions.

He knew not how to walk; he crawled on all fours, but as gracefully as he could,
Then with all the strength in his tiny limbs, the baby carefully stood,
And looked out through the window, a gleam in his little eyes,
Singing merrily through the air, arrived a tiny winged surprise.
A bird so small yet so beautiful, tell me, what brings you here?'
Now perched at the window, it gazed at him for a while,
Then in one magical moment, returned his toothless, priceless smile.
You see I am a young one too, you'll be my friend I'm sure!'
'Certainly I'll be! That's sweet of you, saying thus you've made my day,
For I have nothing that's mine, except a name I've not learnt to say.'
One that the baby would never forget, his first friendship was born.
So the next day again, and the one after that, and others in succession,
The bird and baby met at the window, lost in sweet conversation.
To the baby's longing mind, came rushing a thought-
'Birdie, you've wings, and so you fly,
I presume with ease, you can scale the sky?'
But why this query, little friend, out of the blue?'
'I don't have wings, but I have a thought, over which I ponder,
If some day, I flap my arms, can I too fly, I wonder?'
'Your innocence speaks for you, and its sweetness I much admire,
I'm glad you've told me what you feel and expressed your desire.
You're not winged, it's not your fault, just one of nature's little things,
But don't let that smile fade from your face, for one day, you'll fly without wings.
You're so small you haven't learnt to walk, so impossible though this may seem,
You'll fly some day, make your wish come true, for in your eyes, I see a dream.
Live this dream, give it wings, mark my words, my friend,
Let nothing thwart your dream, beyond all bounds let it transcend.
Never cease to dream, for you will see, it's your dreams that will take you far.
Believe me, you'll fly, let no weakness fruitless your quest deem,
Keep in mind, every success you see, was once just a miniscule dream.'
A dream that I must pursue, a dream I shall realize!'
That night he dreamt as he lay asleep in his bed,
He dreamt of his friend the bird, and the wonderful things it had said.
Sands and seas bowed down to him, mountains shrank and rivers twirled.
Now he saw a house, a sight he knew would loom,
Down he flew and softly perched, at the window of a baby's room.
When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you achieve it.
-'The Alchemist', Paulo Coelho.

Soggy Paws [view the full listing]
LOVE THIS PLACE!I am so glad that Soggy Paws has opened up in the South Loop! They are great, and my pup loves the people that works there (which is very impressive! He's usually shy and/or grumpy around strangers). I take Coach there to get his nails trimmed, and we do use the self-service wash too! The employees there are great, they love animals and are very helpful with any questions we have. The owners are great, and so are their dogs =) |

Bradford Council and its partners have worked collaboratively to update the Bradford District Food strategy, the reason for this update is due to Bradford residents taking an increased interest in food production and consumption as concerns rise over links between our food, the environment and health and it will highlight the issues within these areas.
Cllr Dave Green, Bradford Council's executive member for regeneration, said: "The Food Strategy promotes environmental sustainability; food security; economic prosperity; fair trading and the health and well-being of all residents. Bradford Council has been cited as a pioneering example of good practice for improving the nutritional value of school meals to over 200 schools while maintaining low costs; for our Scores on the Doors scheme ensuring good food safety and hygiene in the district's restaurants and around 100 people a week learn to cook at our Ministry of Food centre since it opened two years ago''
The Council will act as a civic lead to this agenda and will encourage/influence departments where it can to, for example:
The Food Strategy aims to support and encourage local sourcing of food to reduce food miles; cut food waste and increase local food production to support the district's growing population.
The food strategy will enhance links in public health, sustainability, community development, education and waste prevention and other areas. It also will help to meet the outcome of the Council's Community Strategy:
''OUTCOME 3: Bradford's people experience improving good health and wellbeing, irrespective of their community, background or neighbourhood.'
Bradford District Metropolitan Council holds the position as a community leader and through this can implement the strategy through its time and resources.
For more information see the full documents on this page. You can also view the food strategy video
The bwhatyoueat website has been developed as a result of the food strategy to promote local food initiatives and local food production within the Bradford District.
The aim is that bwhatyoueat will become a hub of information for all food related information within the Bradford District, whether you are looking for information on healthy eating to advice on growing your own food.
Local community groups, organisations and food producers are able to sign up to the website to become listed in the searchable directory and food related events within the Bradford district can also be listed such as farmers markets.
To find out about food initiatives in the Bradford district click www.bwhatyoueat.org.uk
Bradford Council has taken a 15 month lease on a market stall in Bradford's Oastler Market, as part of the Bradford district Food Strategy.
The stall will be transformed into a Good Food Advice Stall, to deliver training and advice on everything from growing your own vegetables to preparing healthy recipes to disposing of food waste in an environmentally friendly way.
Various organisation will be delivering the sessions including Bradford Council, NHS, Ministry of Food and Bradford Community Environment Project.
The stall was officially launched on Friday, 15 November 2013 with live cookery demonstrations, health checks and a special bike that makes smoothies.
There will be a programme of drop-in events and activities at the Good Food Advice Stall over the coming weeks and months which people are invited to come along to, to find out what's on when go to www.bwhatyoueat.org.uk/events/
If your organisation would like to run an event at the stall or you would like more information about the Good Food Advice Stall please email firstname.lastname@example.com
Bradford's Good Food Award Scheme was launched in August 2013. It is a partnership initiative between Bradford Council and Trading Standards. The award rewards and promotes takeaways across the Bradford districts that are committed to offering healthier choices on their menus. It is part of a "Call to Action on Obesity in England" laid out in the "Healthy Lives. Healthy People" (2011) which aims to target food businesses as part of a local responsibility deal. Business are scored on how healthy their cooking methods and menus are.
Businesses with a food hygiene rating of 3 stars or above can be part of the award.

T-Day Countdown
I sent D on an IKEA white candle run last night, and can you believe it -- they are out of them. Everytime I am there they have pallets and pallets of them at the checkout. Cleaned the silver candelabras, decided we will use the Noritake Helene, I have been collecting pieces for years. I loved the graphic silver and brown leaf pattern the moment I saw it. Have a silver tablecloth. I am getting excited now. I think we have 17 but we are never sure of the guest count until we all sit down to eat. Rick and Laura are bringing some special Champagne so I decided it should be a "fancy" table setting this year. I think we did "Cow Camp" last year with enamel plates and red camp lanterns.
And the second wonderful thing I found while carting all of that stuff back and forth? The most beautiful, worn, cow skull that I had forgotten I had. The perfect one (Kathy! I found my inspiration!).
So off for more cleaning.

May the dinner conversation be as sparkling as the lanterns and your spirits as bubbly as the champagne.
Happy Thanksgiving! - 1:49 PM
My Thanksgiving countdown is making me nervous. I have 3 things to do. 1. Before I go anywhere, I must finish a paper for one of my classes. The drop dead date is noon Thanksgiving day (I sumbmit it online). 2. Visit my parents - after the paper is done, which preferably would be before Thanksgiving - it's kinda up to me.
3. This one's really 1 & 2 combined. Finish the paper so I can have Thanksgiving, and so my children and husband won't have to keep asking me, "Honey (or "Mommy"), what are we doing for Thanksgiving? - 2:11 PM

The sparkly lanterns are great! I'm off to IKEA myself tomorrow. It's a two hour drive, but they have this...

I love the spread you have of the lanters... so unique. And, I LOVE the painting that rests on the wall behind there. What is that, one of your creations?? Such vibrant colors!! Maybe we need to see a "Snapshot" of that close up...
Happy TURKEY day and enjoy all your guests... - 9:51 PM
I have the same set of china-it belonged to my late MIL. Lovely.
Very good article...infomational for sure...looking forward to reading some more posts placed on this topic...will be checking this page again..have saved in favorites and bookmarked...thanks

Here's some quotes from the article:
"A Nintendo Direct feed is coming on January 31st, the anniversary of Brawl's JP release"
"Little Mac and Takamaru were two of the first newcomers chosen, representing the East and the West."
"K. Rool will be playable, featuring a redesign of the character put forth by Retro Studios. (Could a new Donkey Kong Country be on the way?)"
"Ridley will be playable, featuring his "evolution" from Other M. He and K. Rool were chosen due to high demand."
", Ghirahim, and Dillon are planned to be included in the roster, but these decisions are not finalized"
"Platinum Games wants to include a character, but no decisions have been made yet. Characters from The Wonderful 101 look more likely than Bayonetta."
"A new Yoshi character to be introduced will be playable, likely to originate from Yoshi Land Wii U."
"Starship Mario, Pushmo Park, Cookie Country (Kirby), and Giant Chasm (BW2) will all be featured stages."
This sounds so cool.

Francesca Schiavone made her childhood dream come true today with a 6-4, 7-6 (2) victory over Sam Stosur in the French Open final. But dreams are one thing, doing is another. And Francesca definitely did it. She knew she had to serve out of her mind, so she served twice as many aces as Sam. She knew she couldn't knock out her opponent from the baseline, so she dominated at the net. She knew that this could be her only chance at a Major title, so she took it.
And we got to watch. Thank you, Francesca, for showing us how to be great.
Most of us indulge in day dreams: singing like Aretha in the shower, channeling Roger's down-the-line backhand in the park, winning the Nobel Prize in Mail Merges at the office. Professional tennis players are just like us – but they have four chances a year to make their wildest dreams of Major victory come true. Does that make the dream more or less incredible for the legions of journey women and likable veterans that populate the WTA tour? It's funny how 1 in 128 can seem awfully similar to 1 in a billion.
Speaking of chances, I think Sam will have some more. She played a solid match on Saturday, but her game was lacking that extra level – that Champion's charge. It was like she was so focused on keeping it together, so fearful of succumbing to nerves, that she didn't allow herself to feel the moment. She didn't choke but she didn't exactly feast on the opportunity, either. Next time – and Sam deserves a next time – she should take a page from Schiavone and add inspiration to her game plan.

A classification ensemble is a predictive model composed of a weighted combination of multiple classification models. In general, combining multiple classification models increases predictive performance.
To explore classification ensembles interactively, use the Classification Learner app.
For greater flexibility, use fitcensemble
in the
command-line interface to boost or bag classification trees, or to
grow a random forest [11].
For details on all supported ensembles, see Ensemble Algorithms. To reduce a multiclass problem
into an ensemble of binary classification problems, train an error-correcting
output codes (ECOC) model. For details, see fitcecoc
To boost regression trees using LSBoost, or to grow a random forest of regression trees[11], see Regression Ensembles.

I need feedback. When my phone gets cold, the main portion of the screen flickers white and eventually goes out. I can still see the top of the screen; however the bottom is out. Once it warms up the issue clears up.
This could be the case contracting due to the cold and causing the pressure contacts that power the screen to separate electrically. Still, I need better description of what part of the screen you are referring to which "flickers white and eventually goes out". Do you mean the entire display, except for the capacitive buttons at the bottom? Do you mean the capacitive buttons go out, but the main screen displays normally? What kind of "cold" are we talking about, is it 30F, or are we talking below zero?

Story: Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica takes the concept of the "magical girl" genre and gives it a dark and intriguing twist. I had seen the opening at an anime convention, and the series is so much better than the cute story the opening portrays. There are many twists and turns to keep the viewer interested. The storyline is intricately woven with only vague hints of foreshadowing to the plot twists in store. Though there was use of symbolism, it did little to draw away from this action-packed story. I kept wanting more, wanting to know how many layers of psychological drama this anime had hidden. The only reason I haven't given this anime a perfect 10 for story is because I felt it wrapped up the ending too neatly.
Animation: The animation is beautiful. From the fluid movement of the girls and the intricacies of their outfits, to the dark and edgy animation of the "witches", this anime was full of amazingly detailed artistry. As I am still getting into the animation style of Shaft, I cannot compare the style of Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica to the rest of Shaft's portfolio.
Sound: I definitely recommend listening to the main opening and ending songs. "Connect" by ClariS sounds so lighthearted and hopeful, giving voice to the dreams of the girls. "Magia" by Kalafina is much darker and edgier, foretelling more than anything the melancholic turns of the anime. The music in between is also beautiful, especially the classical pieces.
Characters: The characters are everything you would expect of teenage girls suddenly thrust into a battle of good and evil. They are flawed and imperfect, and they are beautiful. They are all given depth and exceptional emotional ranges that made me empathize with their plights. They embody the motif of the child soldier in a stunning manner. I had seen the split acceptance of the mascot character, Kyubey, and it made me curious. He definitely imbibes what this anime is all about; power comes at a price. He is full of twists and secrets that make him completely inhuman. Instead of making me hate him, however, this only added to his character and made him one of the most interesting creatures I had ever come across in an anime.
Overall: Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica was an exceptional piece of work. It is not for those who cannot follow the twists and turns, but it will be an amazing ride for those that can.
Too bad the characters were fatalistic puppets and the story rushed as hell. I hardly consider it an exceptional show.
seconded, Keitaro2. truthfully an anime of...
I hate using ''epic proportions."

Glenn Lowson/National Post
Rob Nixon of Owens Corning in Guelph says energy saving is now part of his plant's culture.
Mary Teresa Bitti, National Post · Nov. 26, 2009 | Last Updated: Dec. 1, 2009 4:21 PM ET
The boast that Owens Corning makes is that it is "making the world more energy efficient." And the global manufacturer has done that for the past 70 years by producing a broad range of commercial and residential building materials, particularly its pink glass-fibre insulation.
It is now enhancing that reputation by turning its attention to energy conservation at its own facilities and setting some aggressive sustainability targets around energy.
The Owens Corning plant in Guelph, Ont., took a look at the efforts being made to conserve electricity, natural gas and water at the company's 120 manufacturing facilities around the world and it joined in.
The Guelph management has taken two approaches to the conservation challenge: the low-cost, no-cost approach and the capital investment approach. The former required a shift in mindset among staff.
"There has been a huge cultural piece around believing that you can do it, believing that opportunity exists," says Rob Nixon, maintenance and engineering leader in Guelph.
"It's easy to think the status quo is the best way to do things especially when your engineers have established the status quo. We are trying to engage the people who work with the processes that consume the energy. They know where the opportunities lie. A lot of it comes down to asking the question: How do we save energy? That is part or our vocabulary now."
In early 2007, the Guelph plant also introduced a range of conservation projects to reduce electricity consumption. By the end of 2008, it had completed 10 projects, some of which were enabled by the Ontario Power Authority's Electricity Retrofit Incentive Program.
These included investing in lighting retrofits, compressed air conservation, and variable frequency drives that replaced static motors with something that is right-sized and has some flexibility as to how it can be deployed.
"ERIP helped make those capital investments happen and reduced the payback period because in effect it served as a financial co-sponsor," Mr. Nixon says.
The lighting retrofits alone, which resulted in replacing all the fixtures in its primary warehouse with high-output T5 fixtures and the installation of motion sensors in some areas, resulted in cleaner, whiter light in some areas and saved 55 kilowatts or 480 megawatt-hours a year. T12 fixtures in the companies' offices were also replaced with high-efficiency T8s with electronic ballasts, saving another 36 kilowatts or just over 300 MW/h a year.
Mr. Nixon says that the company saved $175,000 on electricity in 2008 and that it is already working on new conservation initiatives.
And that is why Owens Corning is proving itself to be a leader in the area of energy conservation, says Matt Weninger, director of metering and communications at Guelph Hydro Electric Systems Inc., which has been delivering the ERIP to its customers on behalf of the Power Authority since 2007.
"Owens Corning has been very engaged and is taking energy conservation beyond addressing the low-hanging fruit," he says. "They are one of the first companies we've talked to that is taking a look at processes, and stepping back and [questioning whether] the process make sense."
ERIP has two streams: prescriptive and custom. Under the prescriptive stream, the Power Authority has designed an incentive payout for specific, well-known technology upgrades such as installing more efficient lighting. The custom program requires detailed measurement before and after the change and the incentive is based on the number of kilowatts reduced, Each kilowatt in energy savings earns a company $250.
"Incentives reduce the payback period of projects and make projects that otherwise would not have happened come to life," Mr. Weninger says. "There is a lot more potential out there as companies start looking at processes and how energy can be used more efficiently and effectively."
And that is exactly what the Power Authority would like to see with ERIP, which was launched in 2007 with the clear objective to drive conservation among business and reduce demand.
Since its launch, it has received more than 2,500 applications and saved some 75 megawatts of energy.
"It has exceeded our targets," says Bill Wylie, manager of the business market program at the Power Authority.
He says the program is over-delivering on its targets even with the economic downturn. He notes that consumers expect suppliers to be going green and become more socially responsible.
"More and more businesses are realizing conservation is a competitive advantage both in the short and long term," Mr. Wylie says. "Companies who are on this path are reaping benefits beyond just cost savings."

Yesterday, I went to the pool (to pretend like I'm an Olympian) and got out after only 30 minutes because it started to thunder and lightning. After I got home and showered, I looked out the window at our normally amazing view of the Flatirons, and saw this:
I quickly searched the internet to find out what was going on. It was a 1-acre brush fire. A few minutes later it was a 6-acre brush fire. And about a half hour after that, it was somewhere between 200 and 300 acres.
Even though I grew up in Utah, I have never been this close to a wildfire (and I guess neither has anyone else in the city of Boulder).
Last night we sat out on the deck and looked through binoculars at the flames that started to come up over the ridge line and thought about what we would take with us if we got evacuated.
We decided on our passports, birth certificates, etc. Our camping gear just out of practicality since we obviously wouldn't have a place to sleep. Climbing gear, because it's already in the car. And I think I'll bring my Kitchenaid :)
Without a Kitchenaid, it would be significantly harder (definitely not impossible though) to make these cookies.
*I had a craving for the WHole Foods variety of All Everything cookies but couldn't find them - these turned out nothing like those cookies though...they were better!

M83 Album Teaser
i am now excited
this is gonna slay, I know it.
nice, double album the snippet sounds promising
zola jesus track is going to be huuuuge
Pretty enjoyable act
Digging: Heather B. - Takin' Mine
How could this top Saturdays?
Oh fuck yeah!
woah in before jash ejaculates all over this thread
That was pretty sweet.
fuck yeah, before the dawn heals us is such a great album
made my day
very epic? for M83? the good gets better
i have a feeling this'll be their worst album, but one of the most enjoyable of the year nonetheless
hate this band but we own the sky is so good
goddamn m83 makes me shoot cum all over the walls. this dude put together the trailer track for travis rice's art of flight snowboard doc coming out in the next few months: THE ART OF FLIGHT (click this shit)
click that shit^
Saturdays=Youth was critically acclaimed? Guess I didn't notice that. This should be cool though,
That Art of Flight trailer sounded more like Dead Cities era, which is awesome. Looking forward to this.
I clicked that shit. And was impressed. Echoes sounds like a return to the pre-Saturdays M83, which I liked better anyway. Any way you cut it, I don't think this guy can do any wrong.
But Saturdays was their weakest release
@alachlahol Cool song, suits trailer nicely and sounds like it'd fit perfectly on Before the Dawn Heals Us.
this teaser makes me want to believe in god
How could you see it as their weakest yet think it's their best?
Well people can have a favorite album and still recognize that an artist's other albums are better in quality. I like a few albums like that.
That's just stupid
Idk man. It just happens.
If your favourite album by x artist is y how could you say that z is better??
Dreams seem to be a popular topic as of recent.
I could maybe see you acknowleding that one of their other albums is the best, but x album is your favorite for some sentimental attachment reason. But saying it is their worst album yet your favourite, that is a bit weird. The style of Saturdays = Youth is kind of cool, but give me any of their other full lengths over it any day of the week.
Haha well I could say my favorite album by The Format is Interventions + Lullabies since it's the first one I heard and it has more sentimental value, but I recognize that Dog Problems had better songwriting, was more varied, and the album was just better overall. But I still play Interventions + Lullabies more often. I can really only say that about like 3 other artists anyways. It's kinda hard to explain without coming off as nonsensical. Edit: Yeah I agree with Liberi Fatali points. Though now that I'm reading it again it is a bit odd to say a band's worst album is your favorite, but the point can still hold true.
@crazyblinddude, i get your point. i enjoyed Saturdays more as it was the first i heard by them and has more sentimental value. Dead Cities on the other hand has more depth and is 'objectively' the stronger album. same applies to Porcupine Tree for example. i prefer listening to FoaBP over In Absentia, even though i recognise the latter is superior
@crazyblinddude: pretty much yes to everything you said @deviant: it might be odd but like blinddude said, Saturdays was the first album i ever listened by m83 and i still love it, but i can acknowladge that the rest of the discography is better and has a different and better energy but i still prefer Saturdays=youth over them. @sleepyhead: exactly sorry for the late ass reply yo edit: btw i never said worst, i just said weakest
Weakest/ worst - same difference If it's your favourite then you must think it's their best
my favorite album is worse than my least favorite album
This can't be resolved lol
Hopefully this is more like Before the Dawn Heals Us, and less like Saturdays.
idk how this doesn't make sense to you deviant, you can acknowledge something as objectively better than another but subjectively prefer the other one i'm sorry we're not all robots
^this is music. subjective. if an album is your favorite by a band it is their best album. makes sense for me

Re: Final 2013 NFL postseason predictions
I think people are high on the Seahawks because of thinking they're this year's Giants or Packers. They do look awesome, but think them having a rookie QB will get them before the end. Good for them to have a young team coming up so quick. Still, the Ravens are the dark horse of this year, have been all year - if they get it together, they're running away with the Lombardi.
Wildcard weekend:
Saturday 5th Jan:
Cincinnati win @ Houston (The Texans just choked away the bye, think this is the end of the road for them.)
Green Bay win vs Minnesota (One thing for the Vikings to beat the Packers at home, however impressive, but winning at Lambeau's something else).
Sunday 6th Jan:
Baltimore win vs Indianapolis (A close game, to the wire, which the Ravens pull out.)
Washington win vs Seattle (Very close game, this one could go either way. Don't trust Seattle on the road much, particularly on the east coast. Feel like being a bit against the grain as well).
Saturday 12th Jan:
Denver wins vs Cincinnati (Bengals'll fight, but it turns out not being very close.)
Green Bay wins @ San Francisco (Even though the Niners beat the Packers at Lambeau to begin the season, feel like the Packers will somehow sneak one).
Sunday 13th Jan:
Atlanta wins vs Washington (Comfortably 1st playoff victory for Matt Ryan).
Baltimore wins @ New England (Ravens finally achieved their first close victory over the Patriots. They achieve another one).
Sunday 20th Jan:
Green Bay wins @ Atlanta (Matt Ryan chokes, Packers win by a rally).
Baltimore wins @ Denver (Peyton Manning does his usual choke job, Ravens win on a long Tucker FG).
Sunday 3rd February:
Baltimore wins vs Green Bay (Ravens win in overtime on a special teams play).
I can see the Ravens winning at Denver or New England. New England particularly, as the Ravens always give the Patriots fits even if it usually meant failure to close out the deal. Flacco should never have lost to Brady. They've learnt how to win a close one against them now. They've not beaten us by more than a score since 2004 - which was in their prime.
I don't see us winning at Mile High on divisional weekend, but I do see us winning the AFCCG there. Having even time to prepare plus I think the Ravens will ride emotion and less expectation to win it.

Re: Final 2013 NFL postseason predictions
Couple of things:
1. To anyone thinking the Colts game is a gimme, have you been watching the Ravens the past month? What about the Giants you say? Well, NY raised the white flag in their previous game against the Falcons.
2. To anyone thinking that the Bengals will beat the Texans, are you nuts? Is this the same Bengals team coached by the hapless Marvin Lewis? The guy who decides to kick a 56-yard FG with 3 mins left in a crucial game against the Steelers at the notoriously difficult HEINZ field, and predictably missed it, thereby giving the Pittsburgh the ball at their own 46??!! The Bengals-Dallas game shows that no matter how many advantages are in Cincinnati's favor, they will find ways to shoot themselves in the foot.
3. Because of #2, the Ravens will have to tangle with the Broncos at Denver who have a better offense, better defense, and a much better QB who has beaten the Ravens, what, 10 times in a row? The only chance the Ravens have is forcing beaucoup turnovers.
Broncos vs Falcons in the SB with Peyton getting his second Lombardi.
Well, at least Flacco can say he has won at least one playoff game every year he's been in the league and Ray comes out on top at home.

Not sure anyone was watching it, but FWIW Chris Berman is going with a Ravens-49ers Superbowl. I like that match up but it's still a long shot in my opinion.

Baseball seasons don't just turn around overnight. It takes a pretty healthy sample to determine if a player is simply riding a hot streak or has safely put his struggles behind him
If a short stretch can at least hint at a reversal of fortune, though, James Paxton's last two starts are as good an indication as any.
The Mariners' No. 5 prospect recorded a season-high 11 strikeouts over six scoreless innings Saturday night but did not figure in the decision as Triple-A Tacoma dropped a 2-1 decision to visiting Fresno.
"Definitely, that was by far my best start of the season so far," said Paxton, who allowed three hits and a walk. "Everything felt pretty good. The fastball felt really good. The changeup, when I did throw it, felt good and also the curveball was there tonight. One of those nights where everything was working."
MLB.com's No. 56 overall prospect hasn't given up an earned run in his last two outings, striking out 16 batters and walking three over 12 innings as he's dropped his ERA from 5.70 to 4.75.
The 24-year-old left-hander had struggled through a five-stretch stretch in late May and early June in which he compiled an 8.49 ERA.
"I've been working in the bullpen a lot with our pitching coach, Dwight Bernard, and the big thing is keeping my direction toward the plate. That allows me to keep all my stuff over the plate and cuts down on the walks, all that kind of stuff," Paxton explained. "It's starting to click for me, I'm feeling really good."
The University of Kentucky product was coming off a strong season at Double-A Jackson, where he was 9-4 with a 3.05 ERA and 110 strikeouts against 54 walks in 106 1/3 innings. He's needed to make an adjustment after graduating to the Pacific Coast League.
"These hitters are definitely better than any hitters I've faced in the past," he said. "There are some ex-big leaguers, some pretty good prospects, and it's making me learn how to pitch. It's starting to come around.
"I'm feeling good about what I'm doing right now and I'll keep working hard and hopefully continue to pitch well."
Over 72 innings with the Rainiers, he ranks seventh in the PCL with 76 strikeouts while issuing 32 walks.
On Saturday, he was locked in a pitchers' duel with Fresno's Mitch Lively, who took a no-hitter into the seventh. It was the first time a Grizzlies starter had done that since Tim Lincecum on April 23, 2007.
"We'd love to come out of there with a win tonight, but it was a great battle, a hard game. Definitely one of the good ones," Paxton said.
Mariners No. 6 prospect Brad Miller ended Lively's bid with a leadoff single in the seventh and finished 2-for-3 with a run scored to extended his hitting streak to 18 games. Called up from Jackson last month, he's batting .348/.429/.539 with four homers and 24 RBIs in 22 games with the Rainiers.
Giants No. 2 prospect Gary Brown stretched his hitting streak to 13 games with an RBI double in the eighth, then scored the go-ahead run on Johnny Monell's single.

Valacyclovir is a drug indicated to control the virus that causes genital herpes
Singapore: Valacyclovir, a drug indicated to control the virus that causes genital herpes, appears to reduce the levels of HIV in patients who do not have genital herpes, according to a study by researchers from the National Institutes of Health, Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Emory University, Atlanta and Lima, Peru.
The study of 18 patients is the first to show that the drug does not require the presence of herpes simplex virus 2 (HSV-2) to suppress HIV in patients. The researchers hope to confirm their results in a larger study.
"These findings are very encouraging," said Dr Leonid Margolis, head, Section on Intercellular Interactions at the NIH's Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD). "If valacyclovir's effectiveness against HIV can be confirmed in a larger cohort, it could be added to the mix of drugs used to suppress the virus, and might prove especially helpful in cases in which HIV has developed resistance to other drugs."
These results follow a 2008 study which showed that acyclovir suppresses HIV in laboratory cultures of human tissues that were infected with various kinds of herpes viruses. Valacyclovir is referred to as a prodrug for acyclovir because it's structurally similar to acyclovir, and is converted to acyclovir in the body. For the current study, the researchers used valacyclovir because it remains in the blood longer than acyclovir and so would not need to be taken as often.
Earlier studies have shown thatacyclovir reduces HIV levels in patients coinfected with HIV and HSV-2, the virus that causes genital herpes. However, this effect has been attributed to the drug's anti-HSV-2 activity. The decrease in immune activity results in fewer active immune cells for HIV to infect.

Korean literature
In the last quarter of the 20th century a host of talented writers perfected the art of being themselves. The poet
Hwang Tonggyu, for example, drew material not only from his own experiences but also from the common predicament of the Korean people, expressing what others know but do not think of saying or cannot say. The novelist Yun Hŭnggil is another example of a writer who cultivated...

LONDON – "It's an ill bird," runs the adage, "that fouls its own nest." Cue the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA), which, we now know, has been busily doing this for quite a while. As the revelations by Edward Snowden tumbled out, the scale of the fouling slowly began to dawn on us.
Outside of the United States, for example, people suddenly began to have doubts about the wisdom of entrusting their confidential data to cloud services operated by American companies on American soil. As Neelie Kroes, European Commission vice president responsible for digital affairs, put it in a speech on 4 July: "If businesses or governments think they might be spied on, they will have less reason to trust the cloud and it will be cloud providers who ultimately miss out. Why would you pay someone else to hold your commercial or other secrets if you suspect or know they are being shared against your wishes? Front or back door — it doesn't matter — any smart person doesn't want the information shared at all. Customers will act rationally and providers will miss out on a great opportunity."
Which providers? Why, the big U.S. Internet companies that have hitherto dominated the market for cloud services — a market set to double in size to $200 billion over the next three years. So the first own goal scored by the NSA was to undermine an industry that many people had regarded as the next big thing in corporate computing.
The second own goal (or unintended consequence, to give it its technical name) came from the revelation that the NSA had cracked or circumvented the encryption systems used by Internet companies, banks and other organizations to persuade consumers that online transactions could be confidential and secure. Given that one of the great triumphs of the industry had been to persuade initially skeptical users that it was safe to conduct transactions online, this was a staggering revelation, the implications of which will be very far-reaching. And it brought to mind a conversation I had last year with a fairly senior executive of a major Internet company, who casually mentioned that his organization's head of security "wouldn't dream of using online banking." I thought it was amusing at the time and filed it away as a curiosity: Geeks, after all, are notoriously paranoid about these things. Now I wish I had been more perceptive.
But, in a way, even more disturbing was the realization that the NSA seems to have covertly suborned the process by which encryption standards are set by the supposedly independent U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). In 2006, NIST published the standard (i.e., technical protocol) for encryption on the Web that was subsequently adopted by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), which has 163 countries as members. What nobody knew until Edward Snowden revealed it was that the 2006 standard was effectively written by the NSA and that it had inserted a secret back door into the encryption system for its own use. "The road to developing this standard was smooth once the journey began," an NSA memo noted. "However, beginning the journey was a challenge in finesse."
I'll bet it was. Technical standards are to networking as oxygen is to life. And, broadly speaking, the way they are shaped has always been cooperative and open. In the Internet world, for example, it's done by groups of engineers with specialist expertise in a particular area who gather to hammer out, by a process of open discussion, successive versions of a protocol until they converge on something that is agreed to be workable. "We believe," one of the pioneers of the process wrote, "in rough consensus and running code." But at the heart of the process is the assumption that everyone participating — whether from companies or academia — is working in the public interest rather than trying to advance the narrower interests of their organization.
That's why the discovery that the NSA abused that kind of trust is so depressing. And, in a way, it represents the biggest own goal of all, because it fatally undermines one of the fundamental tenets of U.S. foreign policy, namely that governance of the Internet is best left in American hands. As the Net became increasingly global, this was already looking like a threadbare proposition. The NSA has ensured that it is now untenable.
Which brings us back to birds and their nests. I forgot to mention that of course the official seal of the U.S. president is … an eagle.

Federal Employees Union Praises White House Executive Order Establishing Labor-Management Partnerships
Wednesday, December 9, 2009
RELEASE Washington,
D.C. � This
morning President Barack Obama signed an Executive Order
(E.O.) establishing labor-management
forums, an action that will improve the
delivery of government services by tapping into
the knowledge and expertise that exists within
the federal workforce. By
establishing an environment where federal
workers have an opportunity to be heard, the
best ideas on how to make government run better
can be brought forward and considered by
federal agencies. A top priority for
federal employee unions, the signing of the
E.O. could mark the end of an extended period
of poor labor-relations at many federal
A similar labor-management partnership
existed under the Clinton Administration, but
President George W. Bush abolished the
partnerships as one of his first acts in
office, an action that soured labor-management
rapport from the very start of his
administration. �We are very pleased to
see the Obama Administration take meaningful
strides to engage the federal workforce,� said
William R. Dougan, national president of the
National Federation of Federal Employees.
�Federal employees care deeply about the
service they provide to the American people,
but for almost a decade they have lacked an
avenue to contribute ways to make the agencies
they work for more efficient and
effective. Going forward, federal
workers will have the ability to contribute
their ideas, and the American people will
benefit because of it.� The E.O. represents a
clear step in the right direction, but federal
employee unions did not get everything they
desired in the E.O. Federal unions have been
lobbying the Administration hard for mandatory
bargaining rights on all permissive
While the E.O. does not prevent agencies
from bargaining permissive subjects if they
choose to do so, as written, the E.O. gives
agencies the ability to opt out of bargaining
permissive subjects with employee unions. The
Administration has committed to testing
mandatory bargaining on permissive subject at
some federal agencies through a pilot program,
the details of which are not spelled out in the
E.O. �Mandatory bargaining on
permissive subjects would have been the homerun
ball for us, but we didn�t get that,� said
�Nonetheless, we are still in a much
better place today than we have been for the
last nine years. We consider this executive
order a good starting point as we move into a
much anticipated era of labor-management
cooperation in the federal government. We look
forward to rolling up our sleeves and working
together to tackle the many important issues
before us which impact the federal

We wanted to give Agitator readers advance notice of – and an early opportunity to participate in – the 2012 U.S. National Survey on Donor Commitment.
Following the successful pattern of last year's study in the US and this summer's in the UK, loyalty and commitment among acquisition donors to 50 organizations will be analyzed and compared against each other and against the 2011 results.
In addition, we will conduct parallel and private studies for up to 15 organizations who wish to include a sample of their house file donors. The results of the National Study will be shared publicly. Results of the parallel, Private Studies will be shared only with the organization.
The cost to participate in the Private Study Pool, just $3,500 per organization, is negligible given the insights and actionable information you'll get back for increasing retention and lifetime value. Here's why you may want to have your organization take us up on the opportunity.
We can only conduct a maximum of 15 Private Studies. To ensure adequate sample sizes, the Private Study is best suited to larger nonprofits who can provide a minimum of 10,000 email addresses. To find out whether your organization can qualify, check out the registration form here or feel free to contact Kevin Schulman at DonorVoice.
Lots has been written, talked and preached about the need to create, maintain and grow donor relationships … with near unanimous agreement on the immense value derived. Higher retention. Higher net income. Higher life time value.
In fact, over the past four years, The Agitator itself has covered or commented on the essential issue of Donor Relationships — and too-often-squishy concepts of 'trust', 'loyalty', 'commitment', 'engagement' — in 137 posts.
But what was missing, until we conducted last year's US Donor Commitment Study, was: 1) a systematic, math and theory-based process to measure the strength of the donor relationship and what impacts it; and 2) the practical tools and guidance nonprofits need to do something about it.
Working with DonorVoice we used the first study to test the fundamental theory of good donor relationship management – the belief that most of us as a matter of faith accept that if a donor feels she/he has a good relationship with an organization it positively affects their giving. Conversely, a weak relationship or absence of any relationship negatively impacts giving.
Proof. Last year's US National Study, (Executive Summary here) followed by the national study in the UK ( Executive Summary here), plus 23 private and organization-specific studies since then, have provided proof positive of the theory. Indeed it is factually, empirically true that a donor who feels good about an organization actually gives more, more frequently and over a longer period.
Identify and Measure Key Factors of Commitment. We also proved that the strength of the donor relationship (commitment/loyalty) can indeed be measured and scored. But it must be done correctly; there are plenty of wrong or misguided ways to attempt it … like satisfaction or intent measures like Net Promoter Score. Even more significant is that the practical, inexpensive steps an organization can take to improve the score can be identified and put in priority order.
The project is being directed by our colleague Kevin Schulman, a veteran marketing and fundraising researcher with heaps of successful experience at nailing down these types of difficult issues with mathematical certainty.
Any takers?
Click here to learn more about the project, the requirements to participate in the Private Study, the rewards of participation, and to sign up.
Roger and Tom
P.S. One of the helpful 'goodies' participants receive is not only the findings specific to their organization, but a private briefing where we'll share the results, along with all the ways this scoring can be applied to drive retention higher. For example, as an early warning sign, a way of spotting RFM-identified 'good' donors who are at risk of defecting, and identification of donors who, despite their 'bad' donor label via RFM segmentation, have real potential.

I'll be happy to take all the credit!
I remember the day you got here, Kiddo
I do make quite an entrance.
That's what she said!
I've been on BT exactly 6 years and 1 week, and I can't measure or express the effect it and its members (truly among the finest people in the world) have had on my life. It's the example, spirit, and community of generosity I found here that gave me the inspiration and knowledge to keep passing it on, here on BT and wherever I am.
Less than 4 years ago when I moved back to Indonesia, we had ONE triathlon in this country (1 distance). Now we have TEN triathlons (and rapidly growing) from sprint to iron distance, one duathlon, and multi and endurance sport has just exploded.
We just had an ITU Cup race here as well (11 triathlons then I guess!), and it made the front page of our biggest daily in one of the world's biggest cities:
Best of all:
I am so, so, so, so proud of our boys. I am so, so, so, so grateful for BT, whose ultimate impact on this sport, and people's lives, really can't be measured.
Indonesia doesn't have an Ironlady yet, but we are working on it and that will be in large part due to BT too!
I'm working on it baby girl - it's this week's job....

Emerging markets in the region are suddenly back in fashion. Fund managers have been buying up shares in businesses based within the Tiger economies. "The Far East is our favourite region at the moment and there are a lot of opportunities there," says David Rough, group investments director at Legal & General.
Japanese funds are expected to be among the biggest winners. Fund managers say the policies of the central bank, the good business infrastructure and a cheap workforce promise impressive returns.
Many Asian countries are starting to adopt Western-style shareholder values for the first time. This should have the knock-on effect of supporting fledgling markets and furthering business growth. Mr Rough says: "Companies in the Far East needed to restructure to survive, and they are far leaner today. The scene will unfold dramatically in earnings growth."
The unusual combination of low price/earnings ratios and above-average earnings growth in the Far East has created a promising environment. "Inves- tors would be silly to keep this region out of their portfolio but I wouldn't go over the top. An exposure of 5 to 10 per cent of your total portfolio would be ideal," says Mark Dampier at Hargreaves Lansdown, the asset management company.
Not everyone is so confident. Risks for potential investors in the Far East include a slowdown in the American economy. Asian countries have relied on the US boom to keep them going through the recession.
