Walker wants tech schools to address skills gap
Some businesses say they can't find qualified workers
MADISON, Wis. - As Gov. Scott Walker looks to technical schools to address the skills gap, some colleges say they're already doing what's being proposed.
Walker has been making a continued case for performance-based funding for education, including for tech colleges, to send more skilled workers to businesses that say they can't find qualified workers to fill needed positions.
"Whatever the reason is, we need to find a way to say not just offer the classes, not just have kids in the classes, but make sure they graduate and get plugged into those jobs," Walker said on Monday.
But officials at Madison College said they're already taking strides to do that, including having a business advisory board for every occupational program offered at the college in order to match curriculum and course offerings to what businesses need.
Turina Bakken, associate vice president for learner success at the college, said Madison College wants to be able to offer a diversity of programs but would be open to additional funding to target the skills gap.
"Certainly, there are going to be industry-specific areas where maybe things change more quickly than we're able to react to, so that's why any additional funding or creative partnerships we can get and build that will allow us to work in partnership with industry to meet those gaps more quickly, then we're all for it," said Bakken.
But the skills gap issue isn't as simple as that at the college level.
Madison College said it's graduating as many students as it can given the resources in some programs. In 2011, the college graduated dozens of automotive technicians, machine tooling techs, welders, maintenance technicians as well as medical lab technicians and IT positions. Based on surveys returned from those graduates, most of them got jobs right away.
But the college said that's not all it can focus on.
"One of our dilemmas is when you get into saying, 'OK, there's a need for welders,' but there's also a need for child care workers and vet techs and paralegals," said Bakken. "It's difficult for us to start to put more value on one industry than another."
Welding is one of the most popular programs at the college. But meeting the demand for some programs isn't the only problem.
"For retiring and aging workers, we're not getting the initial interest from younger (students). There are fewer younger students entering the manufacturing workplace," said Lisa Delany, associate dean of applied technology at Madison College.
Dan Schmidt, of Lake Mills, is in the welding program at Madison College in hopes of starting a new career.
"The main reason I got into the program was because I lost my position I had after 26 years," Schmidt said.
Schmidt's career at Madison Kipp Corporation had given him years of experience but his layoff had him see the light that experience wasn't enough for some employers.
"I had 12 interviews in a 10-month period, and nobody said, 'Hey, you're just the guy I'm looking for," Schmidt said.
Now as a student at Madison College, he said he hopes a degree in welding will lead to re-employment.Walker wants tech schools to address skills gap
The welding program is one of the most in-demand areas Madison College sees right now.
"We have hired three additional faculty. We've expanded our physical capacity here in Madison and at Fort Atkinson," Bakken said.
Madison College officials said they're already working with local employers to see workforce trends and to design programs around those trends.
The college also said that manufacturing, health care and IT are also the most expensive programs to fund, so that should be kept in mind when allocating funding to schools in the next budget.

Jazz concert set for Dec. 2
Posted November 29, 2006; 10:06 a.m.
The Princeton University Concert Jazz Ensemble
and Jazz Composers Collective, directed by Anthony D.J. Branker, will
perform at 8 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 2, in Richardson Auditorium, Alexander
The concert, titled "Extending the Tradition," will feature performances of original student compositions and works from a variety of composers representing a wide spectrum of styles.
Some of the works on the program were performed by the Jazz
Composers Collective on its recent trip to Estonia for a series of
concerts sponsored by the U.S. State Department, the U.S.
Embassy in Estonia and the Estonian Academy of Music. Under the
direction of Branker, the group gave three concerts between Oct. 27 and
Nov. 5, including a performance at the Estonian Academy of Music in
Tallinn, where it premiered "The Eesti Jazz Suite." The piece was
composed by Branker during his fall 2005 residency as a U.S. Fulbright
Scholar and visiting professor of music at the academy of music.
The Princeton students also performed their own original material in concerts at two jazz clubs and appeared on Estonian national television's version of "The Today Show." The group includes seniors Irwin Hall on alto saxophone, Ben Wasserman on tenor saxophone, Dean Reynolds on bass and Chuck Staab on drums and junior Julia Brav on piano.
The Dec. 2 event also will feature the Concert Jazz Ensemble
performing the big band music of Charles Mingus, Thad Jones, Horace
Silver, Bob Mintzer and Keny Werner.
Tickets may be purchased online through University Ticketing or through the Richardson Auditorium box office, (609) 258-5000.

Corns and calluses are thick, hardened layers of skin that develop when your skin tries to protect itself against friction and pressure. They most often develop on the feet and toes or hands and fingers. Corns and calluses can be unsightly.
If you're healthy, you need treatment for corns and calluses only if they cause discomfort. For most people, simply eliminating the source of friction or pressure makes corns and calluses disappear.
If you have diabetes or another condition that causes poor blood flow to your feet, you're at greater risk of complications from corns and calluses. Seek your doctor's advice on proper care for corns and calluses if you have such a condition.
You may have a corn or callus if you notice:
Corns and calluses are not the same thing.
If a corn or callus becomes very painful or inflamed, see your doctor. If you have diabetes or poor blood flow, call your doctor before self-treating a corn or callus because even a minor injury to your foot can lead to an infected open sore (ulcer).
Pressure and friction from repetitive actions cause corns and calluses to develop and grow. Some sources of this pressure and friction include:
These factors may increase your risk of corns and calluses:
Tests and procedures used to diagnose corns and calluses include:
Treatment for corns and calluses usually involves avoiding the repetitive actions that caused them to develop. You can help resolve them by wearing properly fitting shoes, using protective pads and taking other self-care measures.
If a corn or callus persists or becomes painful despite your self-care efforts, medical treatments can provide relief:
If you have diabetes or another condition that causes poor blood flow, consult your doctor before treating a corn and callus on your own.
If you have no underlying health problems, try these suggestions to help clear up a corn or callus:
These approaches may help you prevent corns and calluses:

|Same fly, bottom view
Here is another one of my fav's both on lakes and on rivers.
Hook: TMC 2457 #10-12 OR TMC 2487 if you want the bug to float higher in the water column.
Tie in a small clear glass bead at the tail
Tie in the shell back just above the bead, I use various leather that I get from a shoe repair shop and from my wife's "surplus" belts & other such disposable like that. My fav' is a piece of "leatherette" material that I get from a sewing store. This stuff will strecth a bit in one direction but not the other. Cut the strip so that it will stretch over the body.
Body: Make a dubbing loop with Metallic thread (also from sewing store) and dub the body with olive dyed muskrat or similar material. Pick at it to get guard hairs to stick out.
Shell back: Black leatherette. Pull this over the body and tie off at the front, leave enough space to whip finish.
Legs: I use elastic thread (guess where I get this?) and unwind the wrapping. The rubber insert is the perfect size and is round. Tie the legs in about half way up the shank, secure with figure 8 then continue the body dubbing
For fun, you can use various other colors for the shell back and make all sorts of beetles and lady bugs & such, just omit thelegs or place them at the front like antennae.

Family: Ardeidae, Herons, Egrets, Bitterns view all from this family
Description ADULT MALE Mainly yellow-buff, palest on underparts, with buff stripes on throat and breast. Cap and back are blackish, latter contrasting with pale buff panel on wings (striking in flight when dark flight feathers are obvious). Has yellow legs and facial skin (this turns pink at height of breeding season), and dull yellow bill with dark culmen. ADULT FEMALE Similar to male, but black elements of plumage are dark brown. JUVENILE Similar to female, but cap and back are gray-buff.
Dimensions Length: 11-14" (28-36 cm)
Habitat Locally common summer visitor (present mainly May-Aug) to cattail swamps, but easily overlooked. Most migrate south of region for winter, but a few linger in south.
Observation Tips Presence is easiest to detect by recognizing male's song. Patient observation may then yield a brief view, perhaps of a flying bird.
Range Southeast, Florida, Northwest, Plains, Southwest, Eastern Canada, Texas, Great Lakes, Mid-Atlantic, New England, Rocky Mountains, Western Canada, California
Voice Utters a quacking alarm call. Singing male utters a short succession of cooing notes.
Discussion A tiny, well-marked heron whose unobtrusive habits and largely inaccessible favored habitats make it fairly hard to observe. Sometimes seen climbing up a tall cattail stem or more typically observed briefly in flight, flying low over marsh vegetation with rapid wingbeats. If alarmed, "freezes" with body, neck, and head elongated and pointing vertically. Feeds on fish and small freshwater invertebrates. Sexes are dissimilar.

NWS keeping close eye on La Crosse area rivers
LA CROSSE, Wis. - With the string of rainy days, the National Weather Service is keeping a close eye on local rivers.
They say minor flooding is possible with as little as one and a half to two inches of rain.
The frost isn't a problem anymore, but the ground is saturated so most of the rain will run right into the rivers.
River levels are already high with the Trempealeau and Black Rivers at or above flood stage.
But there are several other rivers they are watching. "We could have flooding possible on the Upper Iowa River, runs through North East Iowa, also on the Kickapoo River, we could see some flooding farther south along the Turkey river and of course all these rivers feed into the Mississippi so that water level should be coming up as well," said NWS Meteorologist Mike Welvaert.
So what does all this precipitation mean for our drought outlook?19798650
The National Weather Service says we are more than two inches above normal so far this month. In fact, we've had the wettest spring since 2006.
With this latest rainfall, last year's drought could be gone. "The rains that we're seeing in the next several days will probably alleviate the remainder of the drought so we'll probably see less problems with the groundwater being low, they've actually been rising over the last couple of weeks," said Jeff Boyne of the La Crosse NWS office.
That's good news for farmers. But they will have to deal with cooler than normal temps into May which could delay their planting season.

Patrys' scientific collaborators have been awarded a $427,510 Australian government grant
Singapore: Australia based clinical stage biotechnology company Patrys' scientific collaborators at Macquarie University, Sydney, have been awarded a $427,510 Australian government grant to support the development of new highly sensitive, non-invasive cancer diagnostic kits using Patrys' lead candidate PAT-SM6.
PAT-SM6 is an IgM antibody that has successfully completed a Phase I trial in melanoma and is currently in a Phase I/IIa trial for patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.
The grant, which has been awarded by the Australian Research Council, will bring together experts from Macquarie led by Dr Dayong Jin, Professor Nicolle Packer, Professor James Piper, Associate Professor Robert Willows and Professor Simon Foote, with industry partners Minomic International Limited and Patrys.
The project will combine Macquarie's new Super Dot nanocrystal technology with Minomic's and Patrys' antibodies directed against prostate and multiple myeloma cancer biomarkers, respectively.
Patrys' previous collaboration with Professor Packer showed that PAT-SM6 detects specific changes in the proteins present on the surface of multiple myeloma cells, but not on normal cells. These cancer-modified cells in the patients' blood and urine are very rare in early stages of disease and their detection poses a "needle-in-a-haystack" challenge at both the research and clinical levels. Current diagnostic tests are not sensitive enough to detect these rare-event cells, resulting in an inefficient early detection and diagnosis of cancer and consequently poor prognosis.
Dr Jin and colleagues from Macquarie University have developed highly sensitive technologies using super-bright nanocrystals that will enable the detection of single abnormal cells in body fluids, and will provide the basis for new, sensitive and non-invasive, early-stage screening of multiple myeloma, prostate cancer and other malignancies.
Patrys CEO, Dr Marie Roskrow, said, "Patrys is very proud to be part of this exciting and cutting-edge project and welcomes the opportunity to explore the innovative aspects of Patrys' antibodies. The possibility to use Patrys' antibodies as cancer diagnostics as well as therapeutics is very exciting and potentially brings additional opportunities and value to the Patrys' pipeline."

The Budget Impact of The Second Continuing Resolution
The second continuing resolution [CR] for fiscal year 2011 is far more than a straight-forward, stop-gap spending bill. It is a sprawling, 423-page measure – with four "divisions" and 10 titles – that includes major policy changes, such as food safety legislation, well beyond the presumed intent to simply keep government agencies funded and running. Thus, the legislation – made necessary because not one of the regular appropriations bills for fiscal year 2011 has been enacted – is just another example of an agenda of higher spending and bigger government.
According to the Congressional Budget Office [CBO], the overall cost of base discretionary spending in the bill (H.R. 3082) is $1,090 billion. The measure also adds $159 billion to continue war-fighting efforts in Iraq and Afghanistan, bringing the total cost to $1,296 billion. But the war-fighting amounts are designated as "emergency" spending. Hence the Majority claims the bill holds base spending at approximately the same level as fiscal year 2010 – roughly $1,091 billion.
But this claim ignores the significant spending increases of the past several years. Since fiscal year 2008, base discretionary spending has increased by 17 percent, from $933 billion to $1.09 trillion. The larger increases were in non-defense discretionary spending, which rose 23 percent, and the CR essentially remains at this elevated level.

Chapter 5: Triangles and Vectors
Finding unknown quantities in triangles, such as the lengths of sides and the measure of angles, is a critical portion of the study of trigonometry. This Chapter deals with how to find such unknown quantities in different cases where certain quantities are known.
Also introduced in this Chapter are vectors. Consider for a moment the idea that all things cannot be represented with only a number. For example, while you can count the number of pencils in your desk with a number, you cannnot completely describe the force you apply when pushing on your desk with just a number. This is because, in addition to the number describing the strength of the force, you need something describing the direction of the force (in this case, pushing down). Vectors are a way to describe these kinds of quantities; they have both a magnitude and a direction.

Chapter Summary
This Chapter introduced ways to find unknown quantities in triangles when other quantities are known. Included were derivations and applications of the Law of Sines and the Law of Cosines. This was followed by alternate formulas for finding the area of a triangle, including Heron's Formula.
Cases where quantities were known, such as two angles and the not included side, or two angles and the included side, were presented, along with methods to find the other unknown quantities. This led to the "ambiguous case", where triangles with two sides and the not included angle as known quantities were addressed.
The Chapter then turned to vectors, including their definition, translation, addition, subtraction, multiplication by a scalar, and decomposition into combinations of unit vectors.

By Errol Castens/NEMS Daily Journal
Some people garden with a checkbook: They buy tomatoes, lettuce, asparagus and sweet corn with no thought to whether it's February or July. They hire someone to trim their shrubs and mow their lawn and haul off the residue.
For such folks, the seasons are reduced, I suspect, to allergy, man-it's-hot, football and man-it's-cold.
For some, though, gardening means appreciating the balance of acid and sugar that defines a midsummer Brandy-wine, or snapping off a fat eight-inch spear of Martha Washington and savoring its earthy charm right there, or seeing the first rose of spring before it opens.
Gardening is even more than sensual sustenance or secret collusion with nature. It's one way we discover and measure and discipline ourselves.
It teaches us timeliness – one doesn't plant pumpkins in August and hope for a harvest – and yet to have patience as well, often by the schoolmaster of late frost.
Gardening reminds us of the "total depravity" of Reformed theology. A generously offered and graciously accepted load of horse manure that yields an enduring legacy of nutsedge reinforces that impurity indeed touches even the most innocent of human acts.
"I always think of my sins when I weed," Helen Rutherfurd Ely said. "They grow apace in the same way and are harder still to get rid of."
Gardeners become resourceful. Raised beds give an edge in a wet year, and cisterns keep vegetables alive during a dry one. We learn from caterpillars that real problems are best addressed when small, and from mold on crepe myrtles we learn that some problems are mere misperception.
Gardeners learn of mortality and immortality. We expect the oaks and maples we plant to outlast our grandchildren, but many an 80-years-gone ancestor also waves from the grave with durable daffodils.
"An established plant becomes an heirloom," said Elizabeth Lawrence, "for in all likelihood it will outlive the gardener who plants it."
Little boys may think stolen melons taste sweeter, but old gardeners know generosity enhances enjoyment, whether of food or of view.
"It is unchristian to hedge from the sight of others the beauties of nature which it has been our good fortune to create or secure," Frank J. Scott said.
In composting, "waste" of all sorts – spoiled food, moldy hay, cast-off leaves and the vines of a spent crop – turns into a microbiological magic mixture that gives life in abundance. It thus illustrates that nothing need ever be truly wasted, physically or spiritually.
"And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose" (Romans 8:28).

This is getting so old, merry HanaChristmaKwanzadan and a happy winter solstice day. And may all of your non-religious specific days be filled with joy, zen, positive energy and happy pills.A senior advisor to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi told one magazine last year, Conservative radio is a huge threat and political advantage for Republicans and we have had to find a way to limit it. Senator Chuck Schumer of New York stated on a live cable news show on Election Day his support for a new Fairness Doctrine so, as he said, we could truly be fair and balanced under his definition. Obamas political confidant, Senator Dick Durbin of Illinois, said, Its time to reinstitute the Fairness Doctrine.
And just this week, Representative Anna Eshoo (D-CA), a prominent member of the House Subcommittee that may take up the Fairness Doctrine next year, said that she wanted to bring it back. I still believe in it, Eshoo told the Daily Post in Palo Alto.
Why do they say its needed? They claim the federal government must ensure local stations fully cover local news and topics of the day. However, those promoting the new Fairness Doctrine come from the politically correct left, which is incensed that conservative-minded talk show hosts have large ratings, large audiences, and big paychecks.

All my grading-to-get-to is still in a pile on the floor (which is actually less than I'd expected to take home with me due to a school emergency evacuation before the last two periods of the day Friday). I am trying to distance myself from the nitty-gritty parts of school until perhaps '09. But the thoughts are there, lingering like the Dark Side.
I predict that the upcoming Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi film will include the word "and." Multiple times.
I finished grading research papers and portfolios for 61/80 students on the 12th. I actually graded for about 10 hours on that wednesday, thursday, and then for about 8 hours on that friday before I was done. So far, no hate mail yet and I've had probably about 10 kids stop by my office last week to pick them up.
So, my vacation actually started at 4pm on friday, december 12th when I went to the faculty christmas party, where there was LOTS of wine and beer and lots of great food. I was pretty content.
Now, i'm just relaxing till classes start on Jan 12th; i need to brush up on word and excel for a class i'm teaching and i'm working on an article for the Pennsylvania CFP that discusses the antihero in graphic novels. Good times. hahaha
"Woke up at 9.55am. Soon as I woke up, I looked at Suzanne and she looked at me. I said, 'Did I tell you about the immune system?' Suzanne starting laughing, I said, 'it's amazing.' She said, 'Not now.'"
However mother nature intervened with an early Christmas present by giving us a wicked snowstorm on Friday morning. Even though the snow didn't arrive until 8 a.m., superintendents across the region canceled school in unison well before that time.
I kinda had a feeling the night before on Thursday that we might not have snow. Local meteorologists hyped the storm up prior and the last words from our superintendent during the teacher's Christmas party was to "check the radio tomorrow," for weather reports.
Now, I normally am giddy about snow days but the fact is the last day before break is a special day filled with parties and such. I usually give my students a light workload during the day by doing Holiday related puzzles and games. We were in the process of finishing our novel "The Best Christmas Pageant Ever." I had planned on showing Mickey's Christmas Carol.
I still had a gift to finish for the parents of my students too (I did luckily send one home the real last day of school). I am sure we will have the party after break but it won't be the same. Guess I can't complain with having time off.
Happy Holidays to all SSG members, teachers, their spouses, or not!
BCJ, can you elaborate on your early release on your last day before break?

I predict that the upcoming Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi film will include the word "and." Multiple times.
Yea! My wife is now recognizable! Decompression complete! She's now enjoying the last week of her vacation....just in time for me to go back to work tonight!

Chapter 11: Radicals and Geometry Connections; Data Anaylsis
Difficulty Level: Basic Created by: CK-12
Radicals in mathematics are important. By using radicals as inverse operations to exponents, you can solve almost any exponential equation. Radicals such as the square root have been used for thousands of years. Square roots are extremely useful in geometry by finding the hypotenuse of a right triangle or solving for the side length of a square.
In this chapter you will learn the basics of radicals and apply these basics to geometry concepts, such as Pythagorean's Theorem, the Distance Formula, and the Midpoint Formula. The last several sections of this chapter will discuss data analysis, a method used to analyze data by creating charts and graphs.

Last Update: December 12, 2007
This page contains (A) FAQ and (B) other information pertinent to establishing a source water protection (SWP) program.
Answer: There are many reasons for undertaking SWP, including:
Answer: An evaluation, using a specified set of procedures, to determine the human activities that are possible sources of contamination to which a drinking water source is most vulnerable. Assessments provide the baseline information to begin SWP and may be used to prioritize SWP activities.
For more information about source water assessments, refer to the California Drinking Water Source Assessment and Protection website.
Answer: SWP measures are practices to prevent contamination of ground water and surface water that are used or potentially used as sources of drinking water. These include non-regulatory measures, such as Best Management Practices (BMPs), and regulatory methods.
Answer: BMPs are standard operating procedures that can reduce the threats that activities at homes, businesses, agriculture, and industry can pose to water supplies. BMPs, besides protecting water supplies, can sometimes increase the aesthetic beauty and value of residential and commercial properties.
Answer: Without adopting any new ordinances or regulations, communities can be successful in protecting water supplies, Non-regulatory measures include:
Answer: Regulatory measures are appropriate when non-regulatory methods don't work, when the contamination threat is particularly significant, or when federal, state, or regional regulations aren't strong enough for local issues. Regulatory measures include:
The California DWSAP Program Document (PDF, 1.6MB)contains information about implementing voluntary SWP Programs (Chapter 11), management approaches, complete with lists of helpful documents and organizations (Chapter 12), and contingency planning (Chapter 13).
US EPA's Office of Ground Water and Drinking Water's website for SWP provides access to all the basic program information and features a guide of Internet-based source water resources that were either produced by (or paid for by) EPA. The site has contact information and direct links for state SWAP/source protection programs, EPA's regional source water programs, other relevant federal agencies, drinking water protection organizations, and environmental and public health organizations.
Cal/EPA's Department of Pesticide Regulation has information on its protection programs for surface water and groundwater. The State Water Resources Control Board has a number of programs pertinent to source water protection.
CDPH's precursor, CDHS (with US EPA) developed two Source Water Protection MS PowerPoint presentations that may be used for training. There is a brief one-hour presentation (PowerPoint, 1.1 MB) that provides an introduction to source water protection, and a full-day presentation (PowerPoint, 10MB )that provides more detailed instruction on procedures for source water protection.
Also, see SWP case studies PowerPoint, 1.9MB).
We developed a presentation of case studies (PowerPoint, 1.9MB)that describes several case studies of communities and water systems that have undertaken source water assessment and protection activities. Also, see
California Rural Water Association (CRWA) CRWA provides SWP assistance and other services to communities with populations less than 10,000.
There are many other sources of information on SWP, wellhead protection, and watershed protection available on the Internet. One humorous and informative site is the "RoboCow" video from the Prairie Farm Rehabilitation Administration of Canada.

Epiphany is a winemaker's wine, one which satisfies Eli's passion for and fascination with winemaking. Crafting interesting wines of exquisite quality is the sole reason for the conception of Epiphany.
Epiphany's foundation is built upon the outstanding grapes harvested from the best vineyards throughout Santa Barbara County and beyond. In most cases the Epiphany wines are made with grapes from a single vineyard source in order to accentuate the unique characteristics and terroir of that vineyard. Other Epiphany wines blend grapes from multiple vineyards in order to marry different flavor nuances thereby adding depth and complexity to the final wine. View all Epiphany Cellars Wines
About Central CoastView a map of Central Coast wineries
The largest of California's wine growing regions, the Central Coast produces the majority of California's wine. The district sprawls out, covering most of the vineyard land between San Francisco and Santa Barbara. Smaller sub-AVAs of the Central Coast include Monterey Bay, Paso Robles, Santa Ynez Valley, Santa Maria Valley, Santa Cruz Mountains and many others.
Notable FactsGrape varieties range from Pinot Noir and Chardonnay to Cabernet Sauvignon and Zinfandel. Some Central Coast wine is generic, bulk wine that contributes to the high production numbers of the area. But many winemakers and wineries, particular in some of the smaller AVAs, are small production artisans, creating unique and high-quality wine. The great thing about the Central Coast is its diversity - you're able to find a number of grape varieties and styles at a number of different price points.
About California
The most famous of the California wine regions is Napa Valley, and these wines are certainly outstanding – but it's not as broad and diverse as its larger neighbor, Sonoma County. Down south, Santa Barbara's Santa Maria Valley is well-known for its Rhône blends, as well as cool-climate varieties like Pinot and Chardonnay. The Central Coast, the largest California AVA, has many different microclimates that lead to a wide range of wines with many sub-AVAs.

Oran speaks on pioneering work in reactive flow physics, Oct. 10
Posted October 5, 2006; 12:38 p.m.
Elaine Oran, a pioneering researcher in reactive flow physics, will deliver a lecture on advances in her field at 8 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 10, in McCosh 50.
Oran, senior scientist for reactive flow physics at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory in Washington, D.C., is known for her groundbreaking work in the use of numerical simulation to model the dynamics of reactive flows -- for example, those that occur in combustion, rocket and jet propulsion, the oceans and atmosphere, and stars. Her lecture, titled "Matchsticks, Scramjets and Black Holes: Numerical Simulation Faces Reality," will consider some of the applications of this new technology.
Oran has made pivotal contributions to a broad range of problems in combustion and propulsion, atmospheric physics, and solar physics and astrophysics. Her work has contributed both to basic science and to advanced engineering applications.
Oran has won numerous awards, including: the 2004 Presidential Rank Award for long-term public service; the 1999 Oppenheim Prize for outstanding contributions to the theory of the dynamics of reactive systems; the 2000 Y.B. Zeldovich Gold Medal, awarded by the Russian Academy of Sciences; and the 2002 Dryden Lectureship in Research Award, presented by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics. She is a member of the Women in Technology International Hall of Fame and the National Academy of Engineering.
Oran's lecture, designated as the Louis Clark Vanuxem Lecture, is part of the University's Public Lecture Series.

Family: Trochilidae, Hummingbirds view all from this family
Description ADULT MALE Has metallic green upperparts. Throat usually appears black but iridescent ruby gorget is seen at certain angles of direct sunlight. Underparts are whitish, with grubby green feathering on belly. Note white spot behind eye. ADULT FEMALE Has green upperparts and mainly whitish underparts, with fine gray streaks on throat and gray-green feathers on flanks. Fanned tail has white feather tips and black subterminal band. JUVENILE Similar to adult female.
Dimensions Length: 3 1/2" (9 cm)
Habitat Widespread and fairly common summer visitor (mainly May-Aug) to eastern North America, favoring gardens and open woodland.
Observation Tips Easy to see in summer range and often visits feeders.
Range New England, Texas, Florida, Eastern Canada, Western Canada, Southeast, Great Lakes, Mid-Atlantic, Plains
Voice Call is a sharp chip.
Similar Species Black-chinned Hummingbird A. alexandri (L 3.5-4 in) male has a mostly black throat with a violet lower band seen in good light. Throat color is often hard to discern and separation of both sexes from Ruby-throated counterparts is often best achieved by noting Ruby's longer tail projection beyond wings and slightly tapering (not broad and blunt-ended) primary outline. A southwestern specialty, whose range extends to Texas; present mainly Apr-Aug. Buff-bellied Hummingbird Amazilia yucatanensis (L 4-4.25 in) is a mainly Mexican hummingbird with a toehold in southern Texas. Adult has a green head, neck, breast, and upper back, and a pale buff belly; lower back, rump, wings, and tail are reddish brown, and bill is long, downcurved, dark-tipped, and reddish. Juvenile is similar but duller. Breeds and occurs year-round in southern Texas in small numbers; most Texan birds migrate south in fall. Easiest to see at feeders.
Discussion Unmistakable within range because of its size, shape, and habits, and because it is the only hummingbird likely to be seen in eastern North America. Very similar to Black-chinned, its southwestern counterpart. Geographical range is best pointer for beginners. Needlelike bill is almost straight. Sexes are dissimilar.

I had to pick up medicine for my newborn at my local Rite Aid. While walking to the register I saw multiple Clone Trooper Pilots, "New" Yodas, & Destroyer Droid sfor $7.99 a piece!
To top it off, I dug a little deeper and they have a few POTF2 figures for $7.99 each as well.
So if you find yourself at your local Rite Aid, stop by the Toy Aisle to see if you find a surprise!
I would have $hit myself if they had Ephant Mon!!!!!!!
Almost forgot....
The KB in Hagerstown has the entire set of Playskool Star Wars sets
I love the Clerks quote mm74md. The clone trooper pilot wave has been showing up at the Wal-mart on 26 in Frederick too. If you need some I can get them for you for $4.86 which is a lot better than $7.99. The other Wal-mart just off 70 has nothing but Orn fre ta, Han Endor, and Palpatine. From the looks of the hole in target's star wars display, they are getting new things in and selling out pretty fast. I still haven't found Aayla yet. Has anyone seen the blonde imperial officer?
Just got off the phone with FAO in Tysons. I broke down & bought the Imperial Shuttle. They lady I spoke with told me that had "a few" left after people gave up waiting for them for over a year! Lucky me! So if you didn't pick one up give them a call at 703.917.9600 before they are all gone!
The sucky thing is I have to drive all the way to McLean to get it! What ever happened to the Towson FAO?
Oh well, from what I've read about them it will be all worth it!
Maybe my Shuttle will come in now! Sweet. I never thought they would get them in.

Jennifer, there are more articles than what I mentioned. Write me privately re some that would interest you, give me your e-mail address, and I will see what I can do.
Helen---sounds like a great idea and I am doing a lot of articles aimed for the Archives re trying to pull up info on some of the top field Goldens. What has been dismaying is how hard it has been to track down information other than in bits and pieces. If anyone has anything, would love to get my hands on it. Will bring up your suggestion to the powers that be and see what response I get. My interest is only in the field Goldens----but if anyone were interested in conformation and some of the early top obedience Goldens, a lot of that information is there for the digging out in the old GRNews. Barb Branstad has been living in Kinko's copying info from the very early GRNs and sending it on to me. She has definitely been putting in the hours on this.
Actually, at the moment on working on CH-AFC Lorelei's Golden Rockbottom UD and hope to put it together with an interview on his breeder and the dogs in his kennels, Reinhard Bischoff. Hondo will be in the Mar-Apr '13 issue. Have other articles ready to go re Kate of Rocky-Vue, Squawkie Hill Dapper Dexter, Oakcreek Van Cleve, Beautywood's Tamarack and Shelter Cove Beauty with additional ones in the pipeline. These have all been field champions as well as one won the Canadian National and two won the US National Open.
In addition, am working on the history of Goldens who were Finalists in the Master Nationals. Tremendous thanks goes to Bruce Bachert who saw my lament on RTF about needing information----I have a large file box full of the data he sent on to me. He has proven to be a tremendous asset. What is proving very hard here is getting photos of some of the early Golden competitors.
Again--a cry from the heart---any bits and pieces of info you can send to me, old photos, personal stories about any of the old field Goldens, I would love to have them.

Within Ulster County, there are several rental housing units for Senior Citizens. Some are exclusively for Seniors, while others also have a number of apartments for handicapped persons of any age. It is important to know that Senior Citizen Housing is not necessarily handicapped-accessible, so if you have special needs, please inquire.
This guide lists only sites which have some sort of government subsidy, under the general term of "affordable housing." Because the complexes were given approval under various programs, the subsidies and the terminology vary from one to another, so you will need to check the eligibility guidelines for each.
They include no supportive services or staffing to address the special needs of aging residents. This housing is not licensed by a government agency, but subsidized housing may be supervised by a government housing agency.
Generally speaking, these apartments have waiting lists, and it is a good idea to apply ahead of time if you are thinking of moving into an apartment. They are arranged alphabetically by the name of the apartments, not by geographic location.

I shouldn't have made tags plural as I only have one left. I ended the season with one notched tag on opening day and several close encounters including a questionable shot that I held off on that likely would have been too far. I'd rather have them get away clean than make a bad shot.
I could have shot Jakes every trip to the woods this year (all less than 20 yards), but that would have been counter-productive since I hunt on private land and I would rather see those birds as adult Longbeards. Some don't see it that way, but "No Jakes" are the lease rules and they are not hard to live by.
Today, I started up near the top of the ridge, but there was nothing going on there. After it got good & light, I moved half-way between there and the newly burnt area to a slight rise where I have seen plenty of sign in the past. My stake blind was set and I was in position just west of a bend in an old roadbed where we heard gobbling in years past and have seen dust bowls earlier. It seems like it might be a good place to have one strut. About 8:30, I saw a movement to the north, got the Benelli ready and switched the safety off when I could make out the red head of a Gobbler. There was also a smaller Tom behind him. I thought this might be the pair I saw a couple of weeks ago and my buddy also saw last Saturday not far from that same area. Ween he stepped out from behind a tree I could only see about 3 inches of whiskers coming out of his breast and his little buddy had less. They were about 18 yards away and oblivious to my presence. I watched them chase bugs and drift down the crest of the knoll into thicker woods toward the creek bottom. I stayed until just before noon, then I packed up and on the way out I saw 3 hens just below the burnt area. They appeared to have been working toward my location. No matter. I headed to the truck to get a bite to eat and was going to re-position for the afternoon.
On my way out the logging road, I met the forest manager who was perparing to start burning more underbrush where I intened to hunt...good thing he saw me before he torched the place, huh? My hunting day was ended for me.
I had a good season and learned more about the greatest game bird in the World. I hate it is going to be such a long time until next year. I got a line on a new place to hunt, hopefully it will turn into something good. I look forward to reading about those who still have season left. Good Luck to you all.

The trailing gobbler had wheeled and started to sprint away, but he was still within easy range. Calming myself, I held the bright fiber-optic sights far lower on the bird -- about at its beard -- and squeezed off my final shot.
The bird crumpled like it had been struck by lightning, and the hunt was saved.
The moral of the story, of course, is to know your firearm. I hadn't had enough range time with the borrowed gun to fully appreciate how high it shot. After lucking out with the three-shot turkey, however, I spent some more hours at the patterning board and learned where to aim.
And late that afternoon, I came face to face with another big Nebraska gobbler. This time, I aimed the first shot right at his beard, and that ol' jellyhead didn't seem to care that I was using a borrowed gun.

2.20: Boiling
Why is steam rising from the spring in this picture? It's because the water is boiling hot. The bubbles in the water show that it is boiling. The water in the spring is hot enough to boil because it comes from an underground source near hot molten rock.
All Steamed Up
Steam actually consists of tiny droplets of liquid water. What you can't see in the picture is the water vapor that is also present in the air above the spring. Water vapor is water in the gaseous state. It constantly rises up from the surface of boiling hot water. Why? At high temperatures, particles of a liquid gain enough energy to completely overcome the force of attraction between them, so they change to a gas. The gas forms bubbles that rise to the surface of the liquid because gas is less dense than liquid. The bubbling up of the liquid is called boiling. When the bubbles reach the surface, the gas escapes into the air. The entire process in which a liquid boils and changes to a gas that escapes into the air is called vaporization. You can watch an animation of the process at this URL: http://www.visionlearning.com/library/flash_viewer.php?oid=321&mid=120
Q: Why does steam form over the hot spring pictured above?
A: Steam forms when some of the water vapor from the boiling water cools in the air and condenses to form droplets of liquid water.
Vaporization vs. Evaporation
Vaporization is easily confused with evaporation, but the two processes are not the same. Evaporation also changes a liquid to a gas, but it doesn't involve boiling. Instead, evaporation occurs when particles at the surface of a liquid gain enough energy to escape into the air. This happens without the liquid becoming hot enough to boil.
Boiling Point
The temperature at which a substance boils and changes to a gas is called its boiling point. Boiling point is a physical property of matter. The boiling point of pure water is 100°C. Other substances may have higher or lower boiling points. Several examples are listed in the Table below. Pure water is included in the table for comparison.
|Boiling Point (°C)
|Carbon dioxide
|Pure water
|Salty ocean water
|Olive oil
|Sodium chloride
Q: Assume you want to get the salt (sodium chloride) out of salt water. Based on information in the table, how could you do it?
A: You could heat the salt water to 101°C. The water would boil and vaporize but the salt would not. Instead, the salt would be left behind as solid particles.
Q: Oxygen is a gas at room temperature (20°C). What does this tell you about its boiling point?
A: The boiling point of oxygen must be lower than 20°C. Otherwise, it would be a liquid at room temperature.
- Vaporization is the process in which a liquid boils and changes to a gas.
- Vaporization is easily confused with evaporation, but evaporation doesn't involve boiling.
- The temperature at which a liquid boils and starts changing to a gas is called its boiling point. The boiling point of pure water is 100°C.
- vaporization: Process in which a liquid boils and changes to a gas.
Read about boiling at the following URL, and then answer the questions below.
- Name two factors that affect the boiling point of a substance.
- Compared with the molecules of many other substances, molecules of water are strongly attracted to each other. How is this likely to affect the boiling point of water?
- What is vaporization?
- Outline how vaporization occurs.
- Make a table comparing and contrasting vaporization and evaporation.
- Define boiling point. What is the boiling point of pure water?
- Suppose you place an aluminum pot containing water over the flame on a stovetop. Before long, the water starts boiling and turning to water vapor. The pot becomes very hot but otherwise appears to be unchanged by the increase in temperature. Based on these observations, what can you conclude about the boiling point of aluminum?

Everything you need to know about today's media coverage of Israel and the Mideast.
Fallout from 60 Minutes continues. PA internet providers block access to news sites critical of Mahmoud Abbas. Syrian army executes Hama residents who met with UN observers.
Join the Israel Daily News Stream on Facebook.
Israel and the Palestinians
• According to Haaretz, Prime Minister was briefed on Ambassador Michael Oren's efforts to stop the 60 Minutes report about Christians in the Holy Land.
• Christians United for Israel tweets that its members have contacted 60 Minutes on a massive scale.
• For more commentary on the 60 Minutes issue, see Tablet, Jennifer Rubin, Yisrael Medad, and, of course, HonestReporting.
• Palestinian internet providers have been instructed to block access to news sites criticizing Mahmoud Abbas. Maan News explains the latest PA move against free expression:
The affected websites are Amad, Fatah Voice, Firas Press, In Light Press, Karama Press, Kofia Press, Milad News and Palestine Beituna. With their focus on internal Fatah issues, none are among the most popular outlets in Palestine. But they all report on daily news . . .
The new program's timing may also embarrass the Palestinian Authority's financial backers in the United States and European Union, both of which are considering legislation to curb the export of Western technologies used to censor political speech in the Middle East.
• A single nine-letter word would've helped AP's word count — Bantustan:
Under the 1990s interim accords that set up the Palestinian Authority and its disconnected islands of autonomy, the sides were supposed to reach a final peace deal within five years.
• Someone needs to fact check Israeli activist Jeff Halper. Goodness knows Irish Times reporter Michael Jansen gave Halper a free pass . . .
• The biggest threat to Mideast peace isn't Palestinian terror, Iranian nukes, or Syrian civil war:
Israel Legalizes Three West Bank Settlement Outposts
• Haaretz reports that Hamas "moderates" were sidelined in elections for its Gaza politburo, while two figures released in the Gilad Shalit swap "quickly made their way into the groups' leadership."
Next month, Hamas will hold general elections to the overall politburo, with every one of the group's chapters – Gaza, West Bank, and abroad – will choose six members out of the total 18 members of the general politburo. Those members, in turn, will elect the new Hamas chief.
• Hamas to begin executing collaborators in public. According to the Jerusalem Post, Hamas recently arrested what it calleed 10 "veteran and experienced collaborators."
• Washington Post reporter Karin Brulliard looks at Israel's administrative detention policy and the hunger strikers challening it:
"You can't have a situation where everyone who goes on hunger strike, to use a Monopoly term, gets a 'get out of jail free' card," said one Israeli official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss the sensitive issue.
• How can Israel make peace without Palestinian partners? In a NY Times op-ed, three Israelis offer their plan:
Israel should first declare that it is willing to return to negotiations anytime and that it has no claims of sovereignty on areas east of the existing security barrier. It should then end all settlement construction east of the security barrier and in Arab neighborhoods of Jerusalem. And it should create a plan to help 100,000 settlers who live east of the barrier to relocate within Israel's recognized borders.
That plan would not take full effect before a peace agreement was in place . . . .
Under our proposal, the Israeli Army would remain in the West Bank until the conflict was officially resolved with a final-status agreement. And Israel would not physically force its citizens to leave until an agreement was reached, even though preparations would begin well before such an accord.
• Ben Lynfield of the Christian Science Monitor picks up on a brouhaha over a school textbook cancelled by the government:
Officials cited factual errors in the book as the main factor in the decision. But liberal educators say the errors could easily be corrected and that the larger issue is a national struggle to define Israel's identity.

have this on hand at home and when you travel for puncture wounds and bites including tick bites. (Wash wound with ledum tincture as well). A possible life saver. Start using as soon as possible after the injury. The sooner you use it the quicker the recovery or even prevention of bruising and complications. Low potencies like this for may need to be taken more frequently. Homeopathic remedies are a gift! Remember what Thomas Moore says in The Tao of Elvis "... we need spirit not held at a distance... but closer to our everyday souls..."

Whether they're skyscraper-high, unfathomably huge, fish-filled, or ultra-private, hotels put their stamp of imagination—and ambition—on their signature waterworlds. From Florida to California, and from Italy to Bali, these pools break the mold.
For: Serious Pampering, St. Regis Princeville, Kauai, Hawai
When this star of the Starwood hotel group unveiled its new look—and new St. Regis branding—three years ago, the 5,000-square-foot beachside infinity pool was refreshed. But one thing that didn't change was its spectacular view of Hanalei Bay and the north shore's waterfall-laced mountain range. Yes, that's Makana Peak (aka the mystical Bali Hai from South Pacific) in the distance. The poolside services equal the setting: enjoy complimentary pineapple spears, chilled towels, and Lemongrass Foot Treatments at the poolside Halele'a Spa. Consider a splurge for the one-of-a-kind Trina Turk cabana. Best of all: the pool is open 24 hours, a rarity among hotels.
