Notice: Scheduled Campus Power Outage
Infrastructure Update: IT downtime overnight
One of the projects in progress as part of the overall campus electrical infrastructure upgrade is the installation of underground wiring on campus. In order to complete this work prior to the start of school, all RIC-related Internet services will be offline from midnight tonight until 4 a.m. tomorrow morning (Friday, August 29). These services include RIC email, Blackboard, the RIC website and MyRIC/Peoplesoft, as well as Internet access. Please plan accordingly.
RIC has timed the installation to minimize impact on the campus community. We apologize for any inconvenience this required work may cause.
If you have questions about this outage, the Help Desk is available until 5 p.m. today (Thursday, August 28). To contact the Help Desk, call 456-8803 or email email@example.com.
Campus Power Outage - Thursday August 28, 2014 from 6:00 am to 4:00 pm
Rhode Island College in conjunction with Robert F. Audet electrical contractors and National Grid are continuing to work together on the major electrical upgrade for the campus.
One of the more time-consuming aspects of the upgrade - the installation of a new main transformer - must be completed prior to the residence hall move-in day. A delay until later in the semester puts the campus at greater risk of system failure, including heating.
However, the transformer will not be available for installation until the last week in August. Therefore, the college is planning to shut down the power to the campus for approximately 10 hours on Thursday, August 28, 2014 (rain date: Friday, August 29), beginning at 6:00 am. At that time, the college will partially run on generator power.
As was the case during the previous shutdown, air conditioning will not be operational during the outage. Buildings without generator power will be closed.
There are a number of buildings with limited generator coverage that will be closed or have restricted use during the outage period.
Open and on full power:
- Browne Hall (residence)
- Building 1
- Building 3
- Building 4
- Building 5
- Clarke Science
- Craig-Lee
- Donovan Dining Center
- Fogarty Life Science
- Henry Barnard School (*)
- Horace Mann
- New Residence Hall
- Physical Plant
- Roberts Hall
- Sweet Hall (residence)
- Weber Hall (residence)
Open and on limited power:
Seek direction from the Office of Human Resources regarding working arrangements
- Alger Hall
- Art Center
- Forman Center
- Gaige Hall
- Nazarian Center
- Recreation Center
- School of Social Work
- Sherlock Center
- Student Union
Closed and with no or limited power:
- Adams Library
- Building 2
- Building 6
- Building 8
- Building 10
- Cooperative Preschool
- Murray Center
- Sherlock Center
- Student Union
- Whipple Hall
- Yellow Cottage
Due to the timing of the upgrade, key student services, such as the Bursar and the Financial Aid Office, will remain open during the shutdown.
Faculty members with routine IT requests are urged to address these prior to the shutdown. Please note that the USS Help Desk (401-456-8803) will have limited operations during the time of the upgrade.
Staff employees (classified, PSA and BOG) who are scheduled to report to work on the day of the shutdown and are affected by the power outage may, with their supervisor's approval, elect to discharge either vacation time or personal time. Employees who do not wish to discharge time or are unable to do so are advised to inform their supervisor as soon as possible, so that any necessary alternate work arrangements may be made.
We will be monitoring the situation during the outage. Staff from Facilities and Operations, Network and Telecommunications, User Support Services, Campus Police, and Capital Projects will be working throughout the outage and responding to any issues that may arise.
RELATED NOTICE: The annual shutdown for steam plant maintenance is still ongoing but is scheduled to complete prior to the President's Coffee Hour on Wednesday, August 27, 2014. This means that all campus buildings, except those on East Campus, are until then without air conditioning and hot water.

Fountain of Magical Brethren
this wiki
- "...The fountain we destroyed tonight told a lie. We wizards have mistreated and abused our fellows for too long, and we are now reaping our reward."
- —Albus Dumbledore[src]
The Fountain of Magical Brethren was a fountain located in the Atrium of the Ministry of Magic that depicted the golden figures of a wizard, witch, centaur, goblin, and a house-elf. Jets of water stream from various points of the statues.
- "Halfway down the hall was a fountain. A group of golden statues, larger than life-size, stood in the middle of a circular pool. Tallest of them all was a noble-looking wizard with his wand pointing straight up in the air. Grouped around him were a beautiful witch, a centaur, a goblin, and a house-elf. The last three were all looking adoringly up at the witch and wizard. Glittering jets of water were flying from the ends of the two wands, the point of the centaur's arrow, the tip of the goblin's hat, and each of the house-elf's ears, so that the tinkling hiss of falling water was added to the pops and cracks of Apparators and the clatter of footsteps as hundreds of witches and wizards, most of whom were wearing glum, early-morning looks, strode toward a set of golden gates at the far end of the hall."
- —Description of the fountain[src]
The fountain was located halfway down the hall of the Atrium, on level 8 of the Ministry. The large golden statues are located in the middle of the pool, and the tallest of them all was a wizard with a wand pointing straight into the air. Around this statue were statues of a witch, a centaur, a goblin, and a house-elf. Jets of water came from the ends of the two wands, the centaurs arrow, the tip of the goblin's hat, and each of the house-elf's ears. All proceeds from the fountain were given to St Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries.
Messages of the FountainThe witch and wizard are the two focal points of the fountain, with the other, "lower" beings looking up in "awe and adoration." This is very unrealistic, as centaurs and goblins consider themselves superior to wizards and witches. House-elves, on the other hand, have no other joy in life other than to be in the service of wizards. The fountain supposedly represented harmony in the wizarding world, although Albus Dumbledore thought otherwise.
Battle of the Department of Mysteries
During the Battle of the Department of Mysteries in 1996, much of the Atrium was heavily damaged. The floor was gouged and pocketed, the security booth was burned, and most of the fountain was destroyed, although the goblin and the house-elf figures survived. The head of the wizard was turned into a Portkey by Albus Dumbledore, which sent Harry Potter to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.[1]
Fall of the Ministry of Magic
After the fall of the Ministry in 1997, the fountain was temporarily replaced by the Magic is Might monument, a dark statue of a wizard and a witch sitting atop enormous thrones made of Muggles. It is unknown whether it was restored to its original form after the death of Lord Voldemort in 1998, or if it was replaced by a new statue correctly promoting equality amongst magical beings once the Ministry was reformed.
Behind the scenes
- Unlike the books, in the films the fountain contains the witch, the centaur, the house-elf and the goblin while a gigantic statue of the wizard stands on a pedestal further into the Atrium.
- In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 (video game) it is revealed what was done to this fountain. It was repaired and placed in the depths of the Ministry (among a detention area below the Wizengamot Courtrooms), directly below the larger golden statue of the wizard that remained on its plinth in the Atrium.

Steamboat Springs Snow riders looking for adventure by skiing in the backcountry at the Steamboat Ski Area should keep in mind the physical and financial risks that are involved.
This past Tuesday, Chris Dicicco of California City, Calif., allegedly disregarded a ski closure at the Steamboat Ski Area and got lost.
"He thought he was close to a lift," said Mike Lane, a ski area spokesman. "He wasn't even close."
Dicicco, who has been cited with a misdemeanor by the Routt County Sheriff's Office, had to be rescued late Tuesday night by a search crew that included members of the ski area's ski patrol and Routt County Search and Rescue.
Dicicco, 23, was reported missing at 5 p.m. by his brother but was later found by a pair of searchers before midnight in the Beaver Creek drainage area, which is southwest of the ski area.
Along with the criminal charges, authorities say they will try to have Dicicco pay for the cost of the search, which is $1,900.
State law prohibits skiers or snowboarders to enter areas of a ski resort that are closed off by ropes. Ski and Forest Service officials stress skiers should enter the backcountry through the resort's designated access points.
Even with the law, however, ski resort officials say they continue to have problems with skiers and snowboarders ducking under ropes.
"It is becoming more and more the thing to do," said Janet Faller, a snow ranger for the U.S. Forest Service. "And people don't know the danger of it."
Lane and Faller said ropes are in place to protect skiers and snowboarders.
"People don't have to endanger their lives," Faller said. "We are lucky that most situations turn out OK, but we want to minimize that."
Ski officials say the ropes are in place to keep people out of unsafe areas, such as avalanche terrain, cliffs and chairlifts with low clearance.
The closure in the area where Dicicco allegedly crossed is in place to prevent what happened to Dicicco getting lost and forcing a night search.
"The ropes are up to minimize the number of times we have to go out and look for people," Lane said of the area. "It has been a difficult area for us."
The reason the area is roped off is because it leads to numerous drainage areas south of the ski resort, Lane said.
"When someone is lost in that area, it is hard to get them out," Lane said.
The two searchers who found Dicicco had to use skis and snowshoes to reach the cold and wet man, who had dug himself into a tree well.
Dicicco, who did not suffer any injuries, arrived at the base of the resort at about 2 a.m. Wednesday.
The citation Dicicco has received is a zero-tolerance stance the Routt County Sheriff's Office has taken against skiers who ignore closures.
"When something like this happens, we are notified at the end of the day and must mobilize resources," said Undersheriff Dan Taylor. "These people put us in jeopardy, search and rescue and the ski area for the thrill of possibly skiing where no one else has. We are taking a stance that we will cite every person who does this."
The county will also attempt to get lost skiers to reimburse it for the cost of the search.
"It is costly," Taylor said. "The taxpayers should not have to absorb the cost for someone's inappropriate behavior."
The ski resort also takes disciplinary action against a skier caught in an area that has been closed off.
The first and second violations result in suspensions. A third violation results in expulsion for the season.
Officials stress skiers and snowboarders should access the backcountry at designated areas the ski area provides.
These access points give the skier the opportunity to make a conscious decision to leave the ski area boundary and enter the backcountry.
"If a skier makes the decision to leave, know where you are going, have adequate supplies and definitely let someone know where you are going," Lane said.

If you are heating the chicken, serve this appetizer on a warming tray so it stays warm throughout your party.
Hacked chicken is available at Chinese restaurants. It is a mix-ture of shredded cooked chicken, sesame paste and peanut sauce and is served as a cold appetizer. Two cups of shredded cooked chicken mixed with 1/3 cup thick peanut sauce can be used instead.
Or use 2 cups of a thick, flavorful barbecue meat mixture of your choice, and serve warm or cold.

In ToyFare #63, Jerome Blake (Oppo Rancisis, Rune Haako, Mas Amedda, etc.) on the subject of wheels in action figures: "I believe Hasbro has plans to make Oppo Rancisis, the Jedi councilor, and given that he doesn't have legs, only a tail, it would seem the more perfect time for Hasbro to do a wheely action figure."
Can that be a 2 3/4" or one of the next members of the 12" Jedi Council?

Ninja Gaiden...Not so Hard
May 16, 2004, 02:50:06 AM »
I'm through Chapter 10, and I've read much about the difficulty of this game.
Sure there's a lot of times where I have to go back through and repeat some areas...but never have I become 'smash the controller' frustrated.
<super minor spoilers>
Alma, I've read, is a particularly difficult boss. However, she took me no more times than the level 2 boss (probably fewer in fact) and about the same number of times as the helicopter in level 9.
Beating Alma, for example went like this: I was killed in 2 secs the first time. The second time I fought her I discovered the strategy for beating her. It took me about 6 more times to successfully complete that strategy (which isn't too bad to me). Which is about the same for the helicopter.
<end super minor spoilers>
The second level boss took me upwards of 12 times to beat him...possibly more...and that's been the toughest part so far.
Does the difficulty ramp up extraordinarily in chapter 10 and beyond?
If so, no spoilers please.

I played about 40 minutes of this game the other day and boy was I completely underwhelmed. Pretty yes, but it was like a more linear Onimusha with crazy to control combos, awful camera angles, and extreme difficulty.
Just throwing in a dissenting opinion.

I think I used jumping + dragon sword for the ghost fish. Oh and also the lighting magic works really well when you've got a big group of them. As long as you keep jumping and moving they're not a problem.
NG is definitely my favorite action game of all time now, I think. The camera a little wacky at first but you get the hang of it and it really becomes second nature quick. I'm starting to get the itch to play it again now...

I just finished Ninja Gaiden last night. ATB, I think that you're right in some ways and you're wrong. The game has this rhythm for controlling the character and, if you're in the zone, you can pretty much mow through every thing that moves. God help you if you can't get the feel for the controls down,though. I played the first ten chapters over the course of a week-and-a-half and pretty much had the same experience that you did. Due to real life interruptions, I didn't have time to play for about two to three weeks. When I picked it up again, I had completely lost my feel for the game. This is when I felt the urge to scream profanities at the TV and throw my controller across the room. It must have taken me around ten hours to get through Chapters 11 and 12. By the end of Chapter 12 I got my groove back and then breezed through most of the final battles up through the end.
Having finished it, I have to say that it is one of the best action games I've played recently, second only to the incomparable Prince Of Persia. Most folks have already read reviews and posts that praise the game, so I'm going to just comment on a few things that (for me) brought the game down a couple of notches:
* First off, the story. Woo, boy, this game has a story that only a twelve-year-old could love. In retrospect, I should have known given the track record of the developers (DOA3), but would it kill them to make something with a little more depth? Also, the whole demon-thing and military environments threw me for a loop. I think the game was at its best when it put it in traditional settings facing traditional enemies, like other ninjas and samurai. I thought Chapter 2, from a artistic perspective, was the most enjoyable Chapter in the game.
* Jumps. It's impossible to precisely line up for a jump in the game without going into first-person mode. The controls just didn't give you enough precision to string together some eye-popping jumps and wall jumps.
* Too many bosses. Don't get me wrong, most of the boss fights were incredibly well done, but I liked the game the most when I was wading through six or seven grunts at the same time. There's nothing like putting together three combo attacks and then stopping, looking around, and realizing that all seven of them are now dead.
* Not enough platform sequences. I'd have like to have seen more platforming and jumping puzzles to provide a change of pace between fights.
Overall, these are just nitpicks. Great game.

I can't agree with this. I made the mistake of only getting 80% of the way through Prince of Persia before diving into Ninja Gaiden. I enjoyed the jumping sequences and puzzles in PoP a whole lot, but after playing Gaiden, I could not stand the slow, clumsy combat that PoP has. The combat in Ninja Gaiden has a fluidity that has never been achieved before in any action game, ever.

I dream of the day when someone combines PoP's camera with Ninja Gaiden's combat system. I quit NG for the same reason that I quit Devil May Cry. I don't like fighting enemies that are off screen.

I just got to level 10 myself. I do think it's hard though. Some people compared it to Viewtiful Joe, but this one I think is harder.
I love the combat mechanics, but sometimes the game is just too harsh for its own good.
Spoiler about level 9:
Take the boss battle for instance. First you have to fight a tank. And another one. You find one full health bottle (yeah!), and then there's the helicopter. He's tough as nails, but after you killed him, you find a small health bottle (yeah!). After that, you get shot at from a tower by infinite rpg soldiers. Having taken out the tower, you get to a room that's populated by 3 rpg soldiers. They fire at you within 1.5 seconds, and you can't even see them at first. Or dodge them. So if you have little health left, you're screwed.
So I think it's tough. I like the game, very much so, but they should give me some more potions
Especially since I haven't yet bought any, because I'm too cheap and want to save my money for upgrades
Oh, and I hate the jumping parts.

I have a question about the armlets (sp? I mean the bracers) in the game, so instead of making a new thread I'll post it here.
I have 3 armlets so far, but I can't really tell what they do.
The armlet of the Sun increases my attack power... Does it give me more damage? How much more? I haven't noticed any difference yet, except maybe the fact that my attacks are blocked less?
The armlet of the Moon increases my defense. How? Do I take less damage? Can I block more attacks?
The armlet of Benevolence I understand. Apparently it gives me 20% more gold, or at least that's what a certain FAQ claimed.
So, can anyone shed any light on this? I notice a difference, but I can't quite put my finger on it... Quite frustrating
In general, I keep the armlet of the Moon on, because I like to block a lot, and then strike when an opportunity arrises, but learning the advantages of each armlet may give me some more insight into this great, great game

I have the same questions. A little bit more info in the game would be nice...like an attack number or something to see the difference. Hopefully someone can answer

I think that may be the reason I'm not struggling so badly through the game. I don't load up on potions by any means, but I do buy a few to make sure that I have enough for when I stumble into a sub-boss or boss level.
I actually didn't have that hard of a time with the helecopter, but I employed lots and lots and lots of dodging and had a pretty good supply of health potions.
As for the 3 rpgers, the got me too. Luckily I saved right after the tower so it wasn't that big of a deal. Save early and often!

Quote from: "The Rocketman"
I have 3 armlets so far, but I can't really tell what they do.
The armlet of the Sun increases my attack power... Does it give me more damage? How much more? I haven't noticed any difference yet, except maybe the fact that my attacks are blocked less?
The armlet of the Moon increases my defense. How? Do I take less damage? Can I block more attacks?
The armlet of Benevolence I understand. Apparently it gives me 20% more gold, or at least that's what a certain FAQ claimed.
It's hard to tell how much extra damage the Armlet of Sun does, but I'm guessing about 20% more. Same goes with the Armlet of the Moon. If you want to buy an armlet but don't have a lot of cash, I would go for the Armlet of the Sun. I find that it'll generally kill enemies by one less hit (i.e. instead of 5 hits to kill, it'll take four). I don't think the Armlet of the Moon allows you to block more attacks, you just take less damage when you're hit.
When you start playing for karma points (like in the Master Ninja Tournament), the Armlet of the Sun is important, as it lets you kill enemies faster.

I am happy some people find the difficulty ok. Personally when reviewers say a game is very hard I don't even pick it up. I know my limitations and I know I would a. suck at this game and b. I would come to hate it because of that.
Still there is a nitch for games like this and I think it is undeniably a great game.
Of course I am waiting for the perfect marriage of this level of difficulty for those that want it, and lower levels for people like me. While a lot of games have easy settings they are usually rediculously easy. What would be great would be a menu where you can pick or use sliders to decide what is harder.
For example in Oniumsha 3. I eventually switched to easy, but not because most of the game was too hard but because the bosses were. If I could have just lowered the difficulty of the bosses and not all the other creatures I would have found my perfect level of difficulty. Unfortunatly by switching to easy after a fustrating boss fight I have had no challenges in the rest of the game.

there is a proven way to beat alma, but it takes alot of work for most people. i dont find it easy at all. i play on medium difficulty and i have a lot of trouble sometimes, especially with bosses or against overwhelming odds. ive onyl had the game a week and a half, but i played it before i owned it.
if you strike me down, i will become more powerful than you can ever imagine.

Impairment of speech; Slurred speech; Speech disorders - dysarthria
In a person with dysarthria, a nerve, brain, or muscle disorder makes it difficult to use or control the muscles of the mouth, tongue, larynx, or vocal cords, which make speech.
The muscles may be weak or completely paralyzed, or it may be difficult for the muscles to work together.
Dysarthria may be the result of brain damage due to:
Dysarthria may result from damage to the nerves that supply the muscles that help you talk, or to the muscles themselves from:
Dysarthria may be caused by diseases that affect nerves and muscles (neuromuscular diseases):
Other causes may include:
Depending on its cause, dysarthria may develop slowly or occur suddenly.
People with dysarthria have trouble making certain sounds or words.
Their speech is poorly pronounced (such as slurring), and the rhythm or speed of their speech changes. Other symptoms include:
A person with dysarthria may also drool and have problems chewing or swallowing. It may be difficult to move the lips, tongue, or jaw.
The health care provider will take a medical history and perform a physical examination. Family and friends may need to help with the medical history.
The physician may perform a laryngoscopy. In this test, a flexible viewing tube called a laryngoscope is placed in the mouth and throat to view the voice box.
Tests that may be performed if the cause of the dysarthria is unknown include:
You may need to be referred to a speech and language therapist for testing and treatment. Special skills you may learn include:
You can use many different devices or techniques to help with speech, such as:
It's important to maintain a relaxed, calm environment. Reduce noise, music, and other stimuli during communication.
A few surgical techniques may help people with ALS and dysarthria.
Depending on the cause of dysarthria, symptoms may improve, stay the same, or get worse slowly or quickly.

How to Make TANF Work Better for Homeless Families
September 7, 2011
Today, we pause to revisit the Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF) program. Sharon McDonald, Director for Families and Youth at the Alliance, shares her thoughts about welfare.
Last month marked the 15th anniversary of welfare reform. The Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act (PRWORA) is often heralded as a success. With the flexibility of the Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF) block grant, many states provided work supports that helped thousands of families transition off of financial assistance and enter the workforce.
The recent recession, however, highlighted some of the weaknesses of the program. The program did not adequately respond to the increased needs of families suddenly without work and whose unemployment insurance ran out, leaving them teetering on the edge and on their own. From its inception, the program has allowed too many families to fall through the cracks and into deeper poverty. Primary among them are families who experience homelessness.
Less than 20 percent of homeless families report receiving financial assistance from TANF agencies. Studies demonstrate that families who lose TANF assistance often include family members with a disability and other serious barriers to economic self-sufficiency. While some families may lose TANF financial assistance, other eligible families may never apply. With the hope of finding a new job quickly, parents experiencing a short-term economic crisis turn instead to extended families and friends. Many double up. When doubling up results in conflict, they turn to homeless programs.
TANF programs can be more effective in preventing homelessness. States can adopt policies that make it easier for families to apply for and receive financial assistance. They can work to reduce the number of families who are sanctioned off of cash assistance and who lack the means to care for themselves or their children, particularly families that include parents or children with disabilities. States can also increase benefit levels and provide emergency assistance so that families who do receive TANF can pay for housing.
TANF programs can also be more effective in ending homelessness. In communities across the country, local welfare agencies are partnering with programs serving homeless families to rapidly re-house families. In Salt Lake City, for example, the Department of Workforce Services works closely with The Road Home to help families move quickly out of shelter and back into housing of their own. The Road Home provides housing search assistance, landlord negotiation, and home-based case management to families. Workforce Services works with the Road Home to provide short-term benefits to help families pay for housing in the first few months and provide employment search assistance so families will be able to pay for housing on their own over the long-term. The evidence is clear that this approach is working. Family shelter stays are minimized and over 90 percent of the families served successfully retain their housing with the short-term, upfront help the program provides.
The 15th anniversary of welfare reform provides an opportunity to reflect on the lessons learned from PRWORA on how TANF programs can be improved. TANF programs can be a more effective buffer to prevent family homelessness and a critical partner in re-housing families who do become homeless. Ending family homelessness requires the investment of state and local TANF agencies. With sufficient political will, the 20th anniversary of welfare reform can provide an opportunity to reflect on the great advancements made by TANF agencies to end family homelessness.


text: The living landscape of David's hideout from Saul and the Song of Solomon are some of the biblical stories connected to the Ein Gedi Nature Reserve on the shore of the Dead Sea, an oasis made all the more entrancing by its contrast with the surrounding desert. As visitors climb the path toward the sparking waterfall, the picture of David hiding from King Saul (1 Sam. 24:1-22) comes alive with a view of cliff-side caves. The sprightly animals that gave the site its biblical name, the "crags of the wild goats" (1 Sam. 24:2), rest at the cave entrances and walk the reserve. The water gurgling through the tangled reeds and under shady acacias once nourished the beds of spices that enrich the poetry of the Song of Solomon (Song 1:14). The remains of a town and a synagogue with a mosaic floor tell the dramatic story of Ein Gedi's people at the time of Jesus and in the following centuries.

Thread: Barb Primer
Barb Primer
From Southeast Asia come the Barbs; schooling fish from tropical clear streams and swamps. Analogous to tetras with their propensity to school, MOST barbs are perfect for the planted aquarium.
First, names. Barbs are called barbs because most of them have a pair, and sometimes a quartet, of barbles (whiskers) at the corners of their mouths. As science has muddied up barb Genus names for years now, with species vacillating between Puntius, Capoeta and the generic Barbus; in this post, I'll go with what's in vogue now.
Suitability for a planted tank vary. Most species of smaller barbs, like Tigers, Cherries, Golds and Checkers, won't bother any plants. The larger barbs, like Tinfoils, Striped and Clown barbs may NIBBLE plants, indicating a need for vegetable-based foods. The level of nibbling depends on the fish; Tinfoils are by far the worst about doing it. Clowns will occasionally, Striped Barbs rarely.
All of them like neutral to slightly acid water that is moderately soft. Temps in the upper 70's is preferable; I keep mine at 77 degrees.
No barb has teeth in their jaws, but all have pharyngal teeth in their throat. Feed them about 70 percent meaty items, 30 percent vegetable-based foods. All of them like live food like Daphnia, but they should be fed them sparingly (once or twice a week), especially for Tinfoils, as they can't metabolize them as easy as smaller barbs can. Tinfoils need at least 50 percent vegetable-based foods for their continued health and color. Smaller barbs are very, very fond of Daphnia, and will gorge themselves on them. The Daphnia shell isn't digestible, and acts as a laxative. Those barbs that are fed Daphnia too often are rather skinny.
Properly kept, Barbs are lively, colorful schooling fish for your next planted aquarium.
Now some species
Common in nearly any fish store in several color variations are Tiger Barbs (Puntius tetrazona), perhaps the most misunderstood of the Barbs.
Many, many people have problems with Tiger Barb aggression. They will pick at ANY fish with flowing fins, chase smaller fish like Neon Tetras endlessly, and end up being a giant pain in the neck for the fish keeper.
The solution is simple; keep them in schools.
At least eight is what I recommend, and they make a vivacious, nice display in a group. A school like that or larger diffuses aggression, as they spend their time between themselves genially working out politics. I wouldn't keep a large school of Tigers, though, with a Betta or other long-finned fish without careful observation.
In their natural form, Tiger Barbs are a slightly brassy cream color moving to silvery toward the bottom of the fish. Four deep black bands run top to bottom, the first bisecting the eye, the last the base of the tail. Vivid red is outside of black on the dorsal fin, the edges of the tail fin and both ventral fins. Tiger Barbs top out at 2 inches, are native to the Malay Peninsula and Sumatra and Borneo. They don't pick at plants.
Albino and 'Green' Tiger Barbs are available.
For those who like their fish colorful and restful there is the Cherry Barb (Puntius titteya) of Sri Lanka.
The color of the fish varies according to its mood. Sometimes they have reddish undersides, sometimes the whole fish is clothed in a deep red. Males are slimmer and more highly colored than females, but she, too can put on various reds, often coupled with rusty gold.
Cherry Barbs are perfect for the smaller, well planted tank. A 20 gallon with two dozen Cherry Barbs is a pleasant site.
They don't school in the traditional sense, preferring to stay in a loose group, pausing at odd angles as if they are looking for something. Though they top out at nearly two inches, normally they stay somewhat smaller in aquariums.
Being small fish, small foods are necessary. A quality pellet should be staple. Small frozen or freeze dried foods should be given three or four times a week. Insect based foods, like frozen mosquito larvae, are a favorite. Live foods like Daphnia are at first shyly, than avidly, eaten, and it improves the Barb's colors. Cherry Barbs don't touch plants, other than pecking copepods off them.
A Cherry Barb aquarium should be covered, as during breeding, which they do frequently, the pairs often leap out of the water. Parents should be removed promptly if you wish to keep the eggs, as they are avid egg eaters. The fry are clear and tiny, and must be fed the smallest live food possible, like Infusoria and/or green water, for at least a week before they can take Rotifers and new-born BBS.
A lovely Barb, one of my favorites.
On to Part 2
Last edited by Dave66; 02-10-2008 at 07:07 AM.When a finger points to the moon, the imbecile looks at the finger.

The more you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go
Part 2
Not as common in shops as they once were, and it takes time for them to reach full color, Checker Barbs are our next species.
They may not look like much in shops, but be patient. When they grow up, Checkers (Puntius oligolepis) are perhaps the most colorful of the smaller barbs. Both sexes have colored dorsal fins bordered in black; the males are rich orange, the females a golden yellow. Males are creamy orange on their upper body, the females dusky yellow. Males have orange tail fins, females yellow ones.
On both sexes, two rows of strongly-black bordered scales give the species its common name. The black is much stronger in males than females. Eyes are silver. When the male dons his breeding garb, the orange is intensified, and he is velvety black with sparkles of blue and green. He is really something to see. The fry are clear and very, very small, and need infusoria and green water for at least 10 days before they can take baby brine shrimp.
The keeper must exercise patience with this species for it to mature and show the colors that make this species so special. Reaching two inches, a large group in a suitably-sized planted aquarium is quite a sight.
From Singapore and parts of SE Asia comes the Gold Barb, Puntius sachsii.
One of the most delightful smaller barbs, with their habit of rolling and tumbling with their schoolmates when a food item is in the offing. Their golden, rotund bodies and ramble-tammble antics make one think of the Keystone Cops.
Reaching a bit over 2 inches, Gold Barbs are, well, gold; a deep lemon yellow. Black, irregular markings are in a rough line at the middle of the fish, and the mark is plainer in the males. When mature, both sexes have red ventral fins and red on the edges of the tail. Males can have deep red on all fins save for the pectorals. They take some time to develop full color, and it intensifies as the fish ages. Gold Barbs routinely live for six or more years.
Nearly bulletproof hardy, a group of Gold Barbs is ideal for the newer hobbyist. They will not tolerate any Ammonia, Nitrite or excessive Nitrate, however. In groups of eight or more, Gold Barbs spend most of their time schooling together. They look good en masse in a planted tank, but may NIBBLE plants. Feeding them vegetable-based foods frequently often reforms them.
One of the most affable, attractive little barbs, and charming in their behaviors. I highly recommend them.
Perhaps the largest of the common Barbs is the Tinfoil Barb, Barbonymus schwanenfeldii, a native of Thailand, Malay Peninsula, Sumatra, and Borneo.
Reaching an impressive 14 to 15 inches, Tinfoils are a schooling fish for the truly large planted aquarium. What justifies keeping such a gargantuan schooler are its colors. They start life as simply a silvery fish, but as they age, more and more colors develop, and continue to intensify as the fish ages. Russets and reds color all but the pectoral fins. The body can develop a golden color. The large scales reflect all sorts of blues and greens.
They are friendly, graceful fish, though like all fish, they will eat those small tankmates they can fit into their mouths. Tinfoils hail from larger streams and small rivers, so they do appreciate a little linear current in their tank.
For their continued health Tinfoils must have considerable vegetation fed to them. Blanched Romaine lettuce, leaf Spinach or other leafy vegetables must be available to them, or they will likely turn on your plants. Though they are omnivores, but they have a decided need for green.
Because of their size, Tinfoil Barbs are very rarely bred in the home aquarium.
Rare in shops, but well worth seeking out is the Striped Barb; Puntius lineatus, another fish from SE Asia.
A brilliant, metallic silver fish, what makes Striped Barbs unique are five blue-black lines running from the gills to the tail. The fifth line is on TOP of the fish. The lines are quite strong on the male and not quite as defined on the female, denoting sexes. Her middle stripe is thicker. Both sexes have bright silver eyes.
Fins are clear but always smartly spread.
Striped Barbs reach five inches, but are ideal community fishes when kept in groups of six or more. They stand out beautifully in a well planted tank, and their colors are vivid in such environs.
One must wait until the fish are mature to breed them. Males court females by racing 'round them and back and fourth in the tank. Pairs gather over fine-leaved plants and with much trembling, eggs and milt are scattered. They will eat the eggs as they fall, but are not very keen at it.
As are all in the family, the fry are quite small and clear. Infusoria and Green Water are good first foods. It takes a week to 10 days for them to take microworms and/or baby brine shrimp.
The adults are very nimble and fast, and thus difficult to net. A glass or plastic top is necessary, as these fish can really jump, easily 10 inches above water level.
Clown Barbs (Puntius everetti) wind up our list, and are a prime example of good things coming to those who wait.
Native to the Malay Peninsula and Borneo, Clown Barbs look less than impressive in shops. However, once they pass two inches in length, colors start to appear. The body turns a deep peachy orange, in which black markings stand out. The fins get more and more red as the fish ages. By the time they reach their adult size of five inches, they are truly spectacular fish. Occasional live food intensifies those colors.
Though they are among the larger barbs available, Clown Barbs won't bother any fish too large to eat. Clowns are another barb that is best kept in groups of six or eight, as single fishes can be a tad aggressive. If pairs are kept, one will get the worst of it. But kept in good-sized school, Clown Barbs are perfectly behaved and are a real showpiece. They prefer temps between 75 and 78 degrees.
They nibble plants, but not much at all. Foods designed to improve colors is beneficial.
There are several other barbs, and some, like the Tigers, are available in various man-made color morphs. Planning your new aquarium? Why not consider barbs?

Chuck Norris, writing for Townhall.com, suggests we copy the Israeli model. There are armed guards at every school, and a %-age of teachers are armed and trained to use their guns.
He also makes a good point about the fact that we put armed guards in so many other places ... even libraries, national monuments, and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Why have we skipped over schools based on the times we live in? Is it just a matter of time before some terrorists realize what havoc they can wreak in "gun free zones"?Regarding a solution to reduce the rash of U.S. school shooting sprees, Oren Shemtov -- CEO of Israel's Academy of Security and Investigation and one of 16 people in Israel authorized to train those who instruct school guards, which he has done for 22 years -- recently told Fox News that "gun-toting teachers could, at the very least, buy time for kids to escape while police race to the scene." Shemtov explained, "Two (armed) teachers would have kept (the Newtown, Conn., shooter) occupied for 45 seconds each."
He further added in reflection of school security in Israel, "At one point, the Interior Ministry mandated that a certain percentage of teachers be armed, but ... due to increased terror attacks, private guards were mandated at all schools." He said the two most important keys to defending children at schools anywhere are armed guards and armed teacher response teams.
Norris's own approach to home safety:
Tell me this: If various robbers repeatedly storm-trooped your house and stabbed your loved ones, would you try to rally Washington to minimize the production and distribution of butcher knives or simply post a sign outside your front door like the one I have outside mine, which has a picture of a gun and the words "We don't call 911"?

You are here
It was a sea of pink as far as the eye could see on Saturday morning when more than 8,000 people gathered on Daniel Island for the Susan B. Komen Race for the Cure, an annual event that raises funds for breast cancer research.
Rains the day before had left the normal parking location waterlogged, and cars were directed to a more distant field. Fortunately for late arrivals (made later by the backed up traffic coming onto the island), several pink streamer-clad golf carts sped participants to the pink balloon arch in front of the Family Circle Tennis Center, where a big party masqueraded as the packet pick-up area. Vendors passed out an array of information and products, everything from mammogram detection statistics to applesauce. Racers snacked on bagels and bananas. Teams posed for camera phone photos.
Comprising the kaleidoscope of all things pink were wigs, bandanas, feather boas, knee socks, and race bibs that carried the names of women who were either being celebrated or remembered. Survivors wore fuchsia-hued beaded necklaces—one strand for each year of life after cancer—and carried a carnation, a gift presented by race organizers during a poignant pre-race ceremony. My sister and I participated in honor of our friends' mothers—Libby, Felice, and Charilla—but meeting a 30-year-old woman in the midst of chemo was an eye-opening reminder that breast cancer is indiscriminate and we should all be vigilant with screenings.
Eventually, the record number of participants (a reported 1,400 more than last year) paraded toward the start line, eager to get moving—skies were overcast and there was a nip of fall in the air! The three-mile route wove its way through suburbia, past lawns decorated for Halloween and cheering homeowners, and doubled back to the start, where the all-things-pink party continued throughout the morning.
Turning tragedy into something life-affirming was the intent of Saturday's ShineFest, a music festival founded to honor the memory of a Citadel graduate who was killed in an automobile accident in 2007. Blues Traveler, The Original Wailers, Blue Dogs, Sol Driven Train, Sipe-Coffin Group, Dangermuffin, Gaslight Street, and Number One Contender filled the line-up of the concert spearheaded by Christi Page in memory of her late husband, Tripp. Proceeds from the concert benefit the Charleston Country School District and the Trip Page Endowment Scholarship.

The New York-based company is developing security and management tools for businesses using Google Apps products, such as Gmail and Google Drive. Flybridge Capital Partners led the round, with participation from Greycroft Partners and TriBeCa Venture Partners.
Also in today's VentureWire, Thanks to a $50 million commitment from GlaxoSmithKline, life sciences venture firm Sanderling Ventures is raising $250 million for a new fund at a time when the industry is experiencing a pullback from some prominent investors…LipoScience set terms for its initial public offering Thursday, with the diagnostics company looking to raise as much as $75 million and become the first health-care company to go public this year. The company said in a regulatory filing that it expects to fetch between $13 and $15 each for its five million shares…and EndoChoice has raised a $43 million Series D round as it merges with and acquires other companies in its bid to become a one-stop-shop for all things related to endoscopy, and added an investor that will boost the stealthy company's profile.

SAFE Routes to Schools Funding
Posted By News On @ 6:21 am In Today's Local News | Comments Disabled
The Iowa Transportation Commission has approved funding for the SAFE Routes to Schools program that several communities in Southeast Iowa have applied for. Julie Heindel, the City Clerk of Columbus Junction, tells us that they received $87,500 for the program in their community. Kalona received $141,182 for their program. These funds will be used to place sidewalks in areas that children use to get to and from school that are currently unsafe because of a lack of sidewalks and heavy traffic. The total funding released by the Iowa Transportation Commission was over $1.5 million.

By Adam Gore/LetsGoICC.com
FULTON – Sophomore Tre' Wells (Tuscaloosa, AL) closed out his final season at Itawamba Community College with a career-best night and earned Mississippi Association of Community and Junior College (MACJC) Player of the Week honors for his effort in the Indians' 78-57 win over Mississippi Delta Community College.
"This is a great honor for Tre'," said ICC head coach Grant Pate. "It's a testimony to all the hard work and dedication our sophomores put into the season and for him to be named Player of the Week honors is an extra special way to for him to close out his career."
The 6'6 center turned in career-high performances in scoring (18), rebounding (15), assists (3), and blocks (3) as he connected on 7-of-11 from the floor, including hitting 3-of-5 three-point attempts, and made 1-of-2 attempts from the free throw line on the night.
Wells is the third ICC basketball player to earn MACJC Player of the Week honors along with fellow sophomores in Lady Indians two-time winner Ty-Nita Baker (Houston) and Ayanna Lynn (Indianola).

There is no draft...My understanding is that women have been in combat for quite some time now, but they haven't been getting paid for it like the men because of the restriction. They also say the battlefield is more fluid these days making it important that all people be trained and ready for combat.
Everyone here seems to focus on the supposed weaknesses they see, but no one has bothered to mention the strength that women can bring.
I have read other responses on other forums and unlike this one there are men and women in the military who support the move. One woman in particular who was physically fit and could out-do many of the young men in her unit. And I daresay, a physically fit woman who volunteers to fight for her country is going to be far more useful than an out of shape young man who is unwillingly drafted.
It is also interesting to me that the similar arguments were made against racial integration and then don't ask don't tell.
Thankfully, we don't live in this world.
And check out this 111 lb woman. I think women can do more than people give credit for.
At the end of the day anyone who is willing to fight for our country, male, female, black, white, gay or straight has my respect! It's a tough job and I wouldn't want to do it.

Available Dates:
- Dates:
- Not Presently Available.
Get the latest updates on our courses
Please use our subscription page to register your interest, and we will keep you updated on all relevant information and news about subjects you have chosen.
This course will enable you to further develop your comprehension and expression, both orally and in writing. This level is the first step towards a level of independent user.
In order to get to the independent user stage where, for example, you can follow the principal points of a fairly long discussion on a familiar subject, provide or request advice and opinions during an informal discussion between friends, you first need to consolidate your existing skills and gain accuracy in your expression and comprehension. In the Higher Intermediate French course, you will brush up your existing skills, develop your vocabulary and strengthen your understanding of the main grammatical structures of French language.
Higher Intermediate French is organised around the following topics: travel and means of transport; school and university systems in France in the UK; giving and understanding information about health issues; ask for/answer simple user-related issues with computers, mobile phones and social networks.
You will learn how to recount past events; interact in a social context (formally and informally); express agreement and disagreement; make comparisons, stating preferences and interests; describe plans.
In addition to acquiring competence in French itself, you will develop useful transferable skills such as communication skills and self-management.
Who is this course for?
You have studied French for three years part-time or you hold a 'rusty' A-level in French, In terms of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (DELF and DALF), this course, together with Speaking French – Higher Intermediate, prepares candidates for A2 and some competences of B1.
Learning and Teaching
Regular attendance is vital because in order to develop your linguistic competence, you need to participate and take part in the structured activities your tutor will organise every week.
Between sessions, you will also be expected to prepare for topics and complete tasks to consolidate what you will have learnt in class.
Coursework and Assessment
To award credits we need to have evidence of the knowledge and skills you have gained or improved. Some of this has to be in a form that can be shown to external examiners so that we can be absolutely sure that standards are met across all courses and subjects.
You will not have formal examinations but you may have class tests. You may be asked to write assignments, keep a course journal or put together a portfolio. Our assessments are flexible to suit the course and the student.
The most important element of assessment is that it should enhance your learning. Our methods are designed to increase your confidence and we try very hard to devise ways of assessing you that are enjoyable and suitable for adults with busy lives.
Reading suggestions
For this course there is no course book as such and your tutor will give you all the necessary up-to-date material linked to the themes studied. However, we suggest you buy the following grammar book which you will be able to use this year and the following year:

We receive the following periodicals in the library which would be most suitable for you: Ça m'intéresse, Le Français dans le Monde, Marianne, Authentik, Champs Elysées.
