The PLUS Program Services
The PLUS Program is unique in the level of services available to the qualified disabled student. Unlike support programs at some other institutions, the PLUS Program does not use peer tutors; services are delivered by a professional staff of learning consultants. PLUS Program services emphasize content-based learning strategies instruction and content tutorial support in individual sessions or small groups. The Program does not provide remedial or developmental instruction.
Muskingum University's PLUS Program provides three levels of academic support to qualified students admitted into the program: Full-service, Maintenance, and Independence. Students are encouraged, but not required, to progress through these support levels during the course of their academic careers at Muskingum.
Full-service PLUS students receive a minimum of one hour per class of individual or small group contact time with support staff. Students may opt to meet for one hour session per week or for two half-hour sessions per week with each learning consultant. Depending on the number of classes in which PLUS students are enrolled, PLUS participants average three to five hours of professional contact per week. In addition, learning consultants may offer additional group sessions for exam preparation. Other services provided to Full-service PLUS participants include paper proofing, time management strategies and parent contacts, as indicated. All students entering the PLUS Program are required to begin at the Full-service level of participation. Muskingum University has established a fee to participate in the PLUS Program, and this fee is based entirely upon tutorial services provided.
Upon achieving academic success, PLUS students may modify their Full-service status to Maintenance services, for which there is a reduced fee corresponding to reduced tutorial support. Maintenance-level PLUS students receive a mininum of one-half hour of tutoring per week for each course. Flexible tutoring arrangements are available; for example, Maintenance students may opt to forego tutoring in one course and apply that time to tutorial support in another course. Other services provided to Maintenance PLUS participants at no charge include paper proofing, time management strategies, review sessions, and testing accommodations.
Some PLUS students move to the Independence level of service later in their academic careers at Muskingum. Achievement of complete independence from PLUS Program tutorial support exemplifies an important goal of the Program, which is to encourage individual responsibility for learning and attribution of academic success to individual effort. Independent disabled students may still request reasonable accommodations, aids, and services through the Center for Advancement of Learning, but fee-based tutorial support is excluded.
For a more detailed comparison of services and fees for the three levels of PLUS Program support, refer to the Fees and Services Table.
Tutorial support is provided to PLUS students who request it during summer sessions at Muskingum University. During summer school, students are charged on an hourly basis for tutorial services. Non-tutorial services, like exam accommodations, are free of charge for PLUS students requesting such services during summer school.
PLUS Program individual and small group tutorial sessions focus on content-based learning strategy instruction as well as assistance with course content. Strategy instruction offered by support staff can impact the full range of student learning. Strategies provide a carefully sequenced plan of student behaviors designed to result in successful task completion and learning (Naour and Torello, 1991). Effective strategy use involves not only knowledge about the particular strategy, but also when to use the strategy, how to monitor its use, and how to mediate the complex interaction among the three (Pressley and Levin, 1987). Instruction in learning strategies empowers the learner to become efficient and effective. Harris and Pressley (1991) have emphasized the objective of strategy instruction directed towards developing students' abilities to become self-regulated learners.
All students with disabilities, whether in the PLUS Program or not, have certain rights under federal law. Accommodations are provided at no charge and will be coordinated through the Center for Advancement of Learning. Accommodations for testing may include extended time, a tutor-proctored testing area away from the regular class, and a reader or scribe. Technical support for all PLUS Program students, regardless of the level of support, includes computers, Program tape recorders, taped course readings and textbooks on tape.

BEIJING, Feb. 4 -- Crude-oil production by the Organization of Petroleum
Exporting Countries (OPEC) fell 1.2 per cent in January, led by declines in Iraq
and Saudi Arabia, a Bloomberg survey showed.
Daily production by all 11 OPEC members fell 370,000 barrels to an average
of 29.44 million barrels, according to the survey of oil companies, producers
and analysts. It was the third straight monthly decline after six months of
OPEC pumped 30.54 million barrels a day in October, the highest since
December 1979, based on figures kept by the US Energy Department. The 10 OPEC
members with quotas, all except Iraq, agreed on December 10 to cut output by
about 1 million barrels of oil a day, starting January 1, in an effort to keep
prices from falling as a surplus developed.
"We can expect to continue seeing OPEC production decline as they try to
stabilize prices," said Carl Larry, an associate director of energy futures at
Barclays Capital Inc in New York. "As time passes, it will be reflected in US
import levels."
Iraqi output fell 90,000 barrels, or 4.7 per cent, to 1.82 million barrels
a day in January. Iraq is the only OPEC member without a production quota.
The Persian Gulf nation produced 2.48 million barrels a day in February
2003, before the US-led invasion. The country's production and exports have been
limited because of sabotage to pipelines and other oil facilities.
Iraqi exports
Iraqi exports averaged 1.4 million barrels a day in January, down from 1.5
million the prior month. Shipments from northern Iraq have been halted for a
month following an attack on a pipeline to Turkey.
Sabotage to pumping equipment caused power cuts, reducing shipments from
the Persian Gulf, where rough seas also prevented tankers from docking and
loading at the Basra oil terminal, Iraq's largest.
The other 10 OPEC members reduced daily output by 230,000 barrels, or 0.8
per cent, to 27.62 million barrels. The 10 exceeded their self-assigned quotas
by a combined 620,000 barrels a day last month.
Saudi Arabia, the world's top exporter, cut production by 200,000 barrels,
or 2.1 per cent, to 9.13 million barrels a day, according to the survey. The
Saudis said they would cut 500,000 barrels a day of crude oil output as part of
the December OPEC accord.
Effective in January, Saudi production figures no longer include
approximately 180,000 barrels a day in condensates, which are blended with crude
Nigeria and Venezuela
Nigeria and Venezuela both increased production by 50,000 barrels a day
last month. Oil companies in Nigeria were able to increase production after a
rash of labour disputes. ChevronTexaco Corp, the second-largest US oil company,
has about 140,000 barrels a day of production still shut in because of the
recent unrest. Exxon Mobil Corp is the biggest US oil company.

Assembly reps plan to tour mine site
Republicans push bill to streamline state mining regulations
MADISON, Wis. - A dozen members of the state Assembly plan to tour a potential mine site in far northwestern Wisconsin.
Republicans are pushing a bill to streamline state mining regulations in hopes of persuading Gogebic Taconite to dig a huge open-pit iron mine along the border between Ashland and Iron counties.
Rep. Mary Czaja, a freshman Republican from Irma, is organizing a tour of the site for Friday morning. The site is outside Czaja's district, but aide Emily Loe said Czaja toured the site several weeks ago, found the visit productive and thought other legislators would benefit from seeing the area.
Loe said six Republicans and six Democrats have agreed to the visit. She said the visit is informal and the legislators will pay their own way.
Meanwhile, the authors of opposing mining bills appeared together Thursday at a Madison Club luncheon sponsored by WisPolitics.com.
Democrat Sen. Tim Cullen and Sen. Tom Tiffany, R-Hazelhurst, pointed out the differences in their bills.
Tiffany explained the specifics in his bill, which Cullen said focuses on proposed changes to environmental rules.
"The major difference between Sen. Tiffany's bill and mine (is) I don't change environmental standards; he does, hence 206 pages versus 25," Cullen said.
"We want to be very specific, and we wanted to be very specific to the regulatory agency that this is how we want you to go about this process," Tiffany said.
Tiffany's bill needs committee approval but Republicans expect it'll have the votes to pass the full Senate, which is controlled by Republicans.

howdy, y'all. I was just looking at an eBay auction pic, and was wondering if anyone could tell me what the star destroyer in the lower front-right corner of the table might be? I know this cannot be the teaser-SWAF star destroyer. Could this be a die-cast. If you read the auction fine print, the guy is only auctioning the Storm Trooper, Bongo & Destroyer playsets.
Anyone know what that AF-sized destroyer is?

Disputes Over Water Boundaries
After the 1783 Treaty of Paris ended the American Revolution there were many disputes between the United States and Great Britain concerning the boundary lines of the Great Lakes. Originally the Upper Peninsula was of no use to the Americans so there weren't many concerns over its boundaries until the War of 1812 when hostilities resumed between the British and the Americans. Disputes began over the border within the Saint Mary's River, which covered sixty miles of waterway. War broke out amongst the fleets and armies stationed along the common borders.
Peaceful Agreement Reached
On December 24, 1814, President John Madison's administration reached a formal agreement for peaceful determination of the boundary. This ended the War of 1812. In the formal agreement, two commissioners, one from the United States and one from Great Britain, would determine the boundaries after surveying and mapping the land. The commissioners began their work in May of 1817.
The British Departure from Mackinac
In the summer of 1815 the British surrendered Fort Mackinac to the US and its garrison withdrew to Drummond Island to command the outlet of the Saint Mary's River. From this vantage point the British government sought to maintain its ancient contact with the tribes around the upper lakes and to control the fur trade. The main concern was the Chippewa Indians of Sault Ste. Marie. This tribe was dependent on the traders coming from the west and east, trading food, tools, and weapons for furs and some medicines. They saw no reason to welcome American rule under the new formal agreement of 1814. The Chippewa instead chose to continue their allegiance to Great Britain. Once they had undisputed control of the region the American government moved to establish effective control over the northwestern tribes and region. The American government decided to establish a garrison along all lake side shores and end British dominance in trading. This would give countenance to the operations of American fur traders. New garrisons were established and built at Green Bay, Rock Island, Praire du Chein, and Fort Snelling and Sault Ste. Marie. In order to build in the Sault the government had to first receive consent from the Chippewa, since all their land had been returned to them with the treaty with Indian tribes in 1815. The government sent Governor Lewis Cass of the Michigan territory to conduct negotiations.
Cass' Negotiations
Cass arrived in Sault Ste. Marie in the summer of 1820 and held a council meeting with the Chippewa at which he explained the intention of the government to establish a fort. After the explanation many members of the tribes were angered. Sassaba, brother of Chief Shingabowassin, retrieved a British flag from his village, marched up the hill and planted it there in defiance of Cass. Cass took down this flag and threw it to the ground, declaring that the American government could and would destroy their village. Chief Shingabowassin was summoned by Susan Johnston and he then calmed his brother down. It was the great chief who stopped blood shed from happening that day. At a later council meeting sixteen square miles were ceded to the American government for the Sault garrison.
Arrival of the Troops
In the summer of 1822 a battalion of the Second United States Regiment arrived from Sackett's Harbor under the command of then-Colonel Hugh Brady. The Fort was then constructed under Colonel Brady's direction.

Alesis QS7.1
The QS7.1 is a 64 Voice Expandable Synthesizer based on the QS6.1 and QS7 QuadraSynths. It's basically the same as the QS6.1 but has a 72-note keyboard and additional audio outs. But compared to the older QS7, it offers up a much needed larger LCD display screen and a few more direct access buttons to certain edit function and parameters. It uses digital ROM samples (16MB) of sounds containing a library of 640 programs and 500 multitimbral mixes. Really amazing pianos, orchestral sounds as well as vintage synth sounds, strings, brass, winds, guitars, drums, percussion loops and groove patterns can all be found here.
The QS7.1 features 64 multitimbral parts over 16 MIDI channels. That's a lot. And since it's 64 voices polyphonic, you can arrange some pretty complex and complete music, from full orchestras to trance dance tracks, beats and sfx heaven! The keyboard can be split into 16-zones! Control the volume, panning, transposition, effects level and more of each channel independently. Four on-board edit/control sliders are assignable to most modulation parameters. Onboard multi-effects based on the QuadraVerb 2 include reverb, chorus, distortion, EQ, delay, rotary speaker simulation and more. These are on four independent busses so it's like having four FX units!
Powerful MIDI implementation suits the QS7.1 for any studio situation. But it has more! It can connect to your Mac or PC using its RS422 or RS232 ports. The QS7.1 comes with a CD-rom (Mac/PC) with Alesis' Sound Bridge and FreeLoader applications, plus programs for sequencing, editor/librarians, notation, extra samples, programs and mixes, sample sequences, demos and more. Either way you choose to use the QS7.1 it is a truly professional yet affordable versatile synth for the creative player/composer who needs a wider keyboard. For the flagship model, look no further than the QS8.1 with 88-weighted keys with piano style hammer-action.

As parents, when it comes to teaching our children healthy eating habits, it's important to look at our own eating habits first. The old adage, "Do as I say not as I do," doesn't quite add up when we're teaching our children what to eat. A recent study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition backs this up. The lead researcher, Sharon Hoerr, MSU professor of food science and human nutrition, stated that restricting certain foods from children, and then eating those same foods in front of the children, can lead to unhealthy eating habits.
"Mothers should stop forcing or restricting their kids' eating. They'd be better off providing a healthy food environment, adopting balanced eating habits themselves, and covertly controlling their children's diet quality by not bringing less healthy foods into the house."
To help encourage healthy eating habits, take your children grocery shopping and ask them to help you find healthy foods. Plant a vegetable garden with them if you can. Let them help you cook healthy meals as a way to connect them to the foods they eat. Talk about what nutrients are found in the foods and how those nutrients help our body's function well. Plant these seeds early in the hopes that they will develop strong roots as your children grow up to make choices on their own.

By Patsy R. Brumfield/NEMS Daily Journal
TUPELO – Mississippians who've lost their homes to foreclosure or who face financial trials to keep theirs have free counseling and legal options.
Attorney General Jim Hood brought the experts to Tupelo and other locales Tuesday with help through the new Mississippi Foreclosure Prevention Consortium.
Chiefly, the program provides:
• A one-time payment to citizens who lost their homes due to bad business behavior by their financers Ally/GMAC, Bank of America, Citi, JPMorgan Chase and Wells Fargo
• Benefits to owners current on payments by with a mortgage larger than the home's value
• Extended financial help to get borrowers current and prop up their payments during financial hardships.
"People are hurting," said Hood at the Lee County Library program. "People need help."
The consortium of housing, legal and financial counselors is financed in part from $15 million Mississippi received from a national settlement with the five mortgage-serving banks.
Anyone with a loan through one of these banks and who was foreclosed between January 2008 and January 2012, deadline to file for a small cash settlement is Jan. 18.
Hood said struggling homeowners also may get help with principal reductions, short sales, deferred loan payments, relocation assistance, waiver of deficient balances or refinancing.

Heather LaVerne: 2013 Outstanding Graduate in Humanities
"Heather LaVerne is an excellent student, smart, articulate, and active in student organizations. She's a talented writer, a thoughtful scholar, and she excels in theater as well. She contributes a lively presence to any class, and has an exceptional sense of humor. She's confident and popular with her classmates. She and Erin Tripp are co-hosting the UAS Radio Show on Sunday afternoons and they play off each other wonderfully. They also bring a welcome levity to serious issues of voice and empowerment because they understand them but they can't help finding humor in life. In addition to her outstanding accomplishments as insightful writer and gifted student, Heather LaVerne brings a unique perspective on the world and its foibles through her work with theater and improvisation." —Arts and Sciences nominating committee
The faculty here have been so supportive and I appreciate everything they have done for me. Although I am a creative writing student, I did not spend the majority of my time in college cooped up in a room typing at a computer. To the contrary, I was actively involved in improv, Alpha Phi Omega, the Gay-Straight Alliance, and Alaskapella.
Some of the many highlights of my time here at UAS have been involvement with improv shows around the community, theatre on campus in productions such as Little Murders and The Vagina Monologues, the UAS-Lemon Creek Correctional Center Education Exchange Project, being published in Tidal Echoes two years in a row, writing my thesis under the support of faculty Ernestine Hayes, coming up with unique ways to give presentations through short video projects, and making some amazing friends along the way.
I hope to continue writing long into my adult life. I wish to write sketch comedy and plays and someday hope to take classes in improv at The Groundlings or Second City. For now, I'm pleased to remain active in Juneau's supportive artistic community.
UAS' 2013 Juneau Commencement will be held May 5 at 2:00 p.m. at the UAS Recreation Center.
Crystal Rogers is receiving her Bachelor of Liberal Arts degree in Independent Design, focusing on the art, language, government and history of indigenous and Western societies in Alaska, with a minor in Tlingit.

I consider myself quite skilled in those things - but it was hell. Removing smd parts without proper tools
i second this request. its something that is very trivial, doesnt take up much space at all, and adds alot of value to the board for 'production' use. perhaps if the arduino folks dont do it, then one of the clones (boarduino, bbb, etc.) will add it.

My little dojos' Christmas treats ...
Hubby bought my dojos no fewer than five containers of their favorite treats, Sera brand O'Nips. He gets as big a kick out of these little weather loaches as I do. At feeding time, they go absolutely crazy over them. Of course, my other fish in the 65 nibble on them, too. Dojos don't mind sharing their larder ...
Boy, are they growing!
What will your loaches find in their Christmas stockings?20 gal. high: planted; 7 white cloud minnows, several RCS, 2 blue shrimp, 5 Amano shrimp, several snails; Azoo air. 65 gal: planted; 6 rosy barbs, 6 yellow glofish, 3 red glofish, 3 zebra danios, 5 white cloud minnows, 3 dojo loaches, 6 crimson spot rainbow fish, 12 large Amano Shrimp, several snails; AC110.
My fish are not even getting fed since I wont be home .
BTW - Not those for sure LOL. Have you ever looked at an evaluation of that particular food? You really might want to.
The http://www.oscarfish.com/1-star-food...-analysis.html site rates it a 'One star food' out of a six star scale - That is the lowest rating possible btw & it ranks right down there with Wardleys and Tetra.
Here is just a bit of their analysis:
It is not known if this food contains Ethoxyquin. Absent a manufacturers statement that it does not, we must assume it does. While synthetic vitamin K is not listed in the ingredient list, it can be assumed to be included under the label Vitamins. This food certainly contains artificial colors. One of which is Ponceau 4R, a known carcinogen banned from human consumption in many countries, including the United States.
Oscarfish.Com Rating: 1 Star
There simply is not enough confidence in the preferred protein content of this food. Nor is there sufficient confidence in the quality of the primary meal products used. Combine this with probable use of Ethoxyquin, synthetic vitamin K, and listed use of artificial colors with known health risks, to justify a rating any higher than a 1 star. Ponceau 4R Ponceau 4R is an egregious enough ingredient, by itself, to prevent rating this as anything approaching a worthy food.
Gas mileage isn't everything OIIIIIIIO
Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part.
Why pretend there are no stupid questions? Actually, There are many stupid questions: "Should I drink this bleach?" Is just one example.
Having said that, Just because it's a stupid question doesn't mean that it shouldn't be asked. It's better to know.
A warm beer is better than a cold beer. Because nothing is better than a cold beer, and a warm beer is better than nothing.
Thanks for the tip.
I clicked on the link and read what they have to say. The fact that this food contains spirulina is a plus, as spirulina is considered very nutritious. Even if it's there in small quantities, it's certainly better than being absent completely.
As for the questionable ingredients, the article states they are uncertain of the presence of some of them.
While whole krill would be best, krill meal still offers some nutritional benefits.
The milk protein thing is questionable. I'll be watching my fish carefully to see if any digestive issues arise, and will discontinue feeding these tablets in that event, and watch what happens after they quit getting them. If the problems resolve, it's a good bet the milk protein might be to blame. If no problems arise, then it's probably not an issue.
As with all fish food, this would never become a singular or steady diet for my dojos. They receive a balanced diet consisting frozen brine shrimp, frozen krill and other frozen goodies from a variety pack, freeze-dried blood worms, New Life Spectrum and Hikari products, Omega One Veggie Rounds, and a variety of other top quality foods. They also directly receive Ocean Nutrition Spirulina flakes.
Knowing what I've now learned, I plan to cut down on the frequency of serving these treats, but I don't believe they're totally without benefit so don't immediately plan to completely eliminate them from their diet. The article does list some positives about them.
Thank you for sharing this information. This is what makes this forum so valuable.

From the little I have read about ethoxyquin in the past, it stated that any fish food that contains fish products, or bi- products of fish such as the meals, that it's a requirement that ethoxyguin be used as a preservative due to the fish fat.
On the other hand, I also read there was a problem with ethoxguin in dog food and the worse food to fed your dog was Purina. I tend to also agree that even tho it's not always listed on the ingredient list, it is probably used anyway. How else can they prevent fats from becoming rancid?
(Hobbs shrugs shoulders) So, after my day of reading on this topic, I still don't know. I wouldn't worry about the loaches, tho. It's not like this is the only thing they get to eat.

Graham moving from juvenile detention to jail
Avondre Graham was arrested last fall, accused of killing Sharlotte McGill. When he turns 18 later this month, he'll be getting a change of scenery when the young murder suspect transfers from juvenile hall to the Spokane County Jail.
Right now there are about 30 people locked up in juvenile detention, including Graham, who's being prosecuted as an adult. He's responding well to the structure of the Spokane Detention Center, and will continue to benefit from the protections given to young offenders, at least for the next week or so.
"We are very invested in our work here and fortunate to have a staff very dedicated to helping young people," Mark Lewis at the detention center said.avondre jail transfer vo
In Graham's case it didn't take very long for him to thrive and soon he was climbing the steps on the detention center's honor roll. Kids who misbehave sit in their cell while kids who follow the rules earn small privileges like a deck of cards.
"If you behave appropriately, follow the rules, do what you are supposed to, then can [get] privileges here within the confines of the facility," Lewis said.
When he was allegedly attacking women along the Centennial Trail, Graham wasn't attending his high school. But at the juvenile detention center Graham goes to class every day, where Dan Fuller is one of his teachers. Fuller tries to either keep kids caught up with their regular school or helps them get their GEDs.
"We are fortunate to have instructors who are highly capable, highly skilled, who will take kids, who sometimes are years behind in their education and monumental progress in catching up," Lewis said.
Surprisingly, even the most incorrigible kids respond well to the challenge. Lewis attributes the success to the fact that the juveniles are given every opportunity to succeed.
"You've got caring adults, you've got supportive environment, you've got high accountability, high structure and very clear expectations that are reinforced immediately," he said.
However there is nothing the juvenile staff can do to help Graham avoid the very adult consequences that come with his murder charge which, when he turns 18, will require his transfer out of juvenile detention and over to the jail.
As for the rest of the juveniles in the system, however, two out of every three of the others who do time in the detention center stop breaking the law, sparing future victims and saving Spokane taxpayers money that would otherwise be spent on them as criminal adults.

Spoiler continued.....
It was inevitable that Clay would die, but just when was the question. In prison, out of prison, but it was gonna happen. I think several more major characters will not have happy endings before the series wraps up. It's destiny. Only one person has a chance of surviving the series, and it's Gemma but she'd be a broken woman.
BTW, Ron Perlman has a great interview at EW.com about his demise.
It will be interesting to see if there are repercussions with the Irish back in Northern Ireland, or they will buy the Clay-Galen shootout.

The grind continues. $BIGCONSULTING is rampant. Interestingly, the emphasis on software maturity level is out of favor- that was quick! -and is considered a side-effect of organizational changes. Layoffs to be announced 1/17. Bonuses, if they exist, are rumored to be announced 1/18. Our group is apparently behind on two projects (very large scale software infrastructure changes, not seen by customers) because we provided assistance to other teams (real products, seen by real customers) and delayed to avoid collisions in production (which is also seen by customers). So we are refocusing on our own tasks and are instructed to not help other teams. The exception is if we can get their tracking codes for billing or the include our work in their estimates. I see the need, but question the benefit.

© estate of Fred Williams
As a young, enthusiastic artist in London, Williams found the Music Hall performances a rich source of inspiration for his art. One of his friends in London, John Taylor, recalled:
You'd wait in a long queue and pay your two bob and then you'd run like hell up these stairs to get a good position. Williams used to go for the front of "the gods", so that he'd get a good position for seeing the stage. He just went there with his sketch book and pen. They were just notes really to prompt his memory.
In this work painted back in his room, Williams has captured a moment in the dynamic routine of a pair of acrobats. In the wondrous yet precarious balance of the figures, he was able to suggest an implied energy within the impression of something still and held forever in time.

the battery should give the netbook about 1h30 of life, but it goes a little above. machine kept running for 1h50 before shutting down. at 3 % the netbook suddenly shot down so openbsd won't be happy and fsck the whole thing. need to write a script that does a shutdown when battery reaches 5 % or so (suspend/sleep not supported yet). that will teach me not to respect what that battery blinking red led means
running at full cpu speed (797 MHz) after 1h apm reported battery at 47 % with an estimated running time left of 51 min. after 1h45 17 % was left, and then battery started going down fast. at 1h47 there was 3 % left. since it's a new battery running its very first charge, things will get better after 3/5 full decharge/charge cycles. autonomy at full speed is 1h50 to 2h which is quite good for a 23 Wh battery.
here is the openbsd 4.9 dmesg for the machine. X currently runs in non accelerated mode, using frame buffer. only one console in vt110 so you need to install screen on console. launching X is just typing startx. right now i am using the defaut fvwm window manager preinstalled with it, does the job for now. wonder if i'll install gnome or not since i mostly spend all my time over a dozen xterms.
frame buffer runs at 1024 x 600 (screen resolution, it's 10 inches) in 16 bits/pixel. i took two screenshots using xwd : first shows a top running with a uname -a for the platform (mips, 64-bits, little endian). second shows installation of a few packages using pkg_add.
i need to install a lightweight wm. probably will be xfce. machine does run gnome (i think the default linux i removed was using gnome) but i am still wondering.

Leon Kenneth Edmunds
Leon Kenneth Edmunds, 84, of Manhattan, KS, passed away peacefully at his small family farm near Yuba, WI on July 26, 2013 of congenital heart failure after a long battle with Parkinson's disease.
Leon was born to Isaac and Christine (Hollerup) Edmunds of Madison, WI on March 25, 1929. His early years spent on Badger Road taught him the value of hard work and self-discipline. Leon enjoyed percussion and served in the Madison Drum and Bugle Corp during reconstruction in Europe after WWII. In addition to his cross-word puzzle prowess, he had a lifetime passion for bird-watching, which was evident in his maintenance of his purple martin houses, participation in the annual Audubon Christmas bird count, and his enjoyment of the soaring eagles near his Rocky Ford home.
Leon was married to Patricia Imhoff of Highland, WI on September 23, 1950 in Madison, WI. He earned his Ph.D. degree in Plant Pathology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1958.
Leon's overall commitment to leaving things better than he found them underscored his success as a faculty member with the USDA at Kansas State University and later as a pathologist for the alfalfa breeding program with Pioneer Hi-Bred International at Yuba, WI.
His enthusiasm for life led to co-founding Kaw Valley Greenhouses in Manhattan, KS in 1967, and later expanded into dairy farming to supply milk for cheese production in southwest WI in 1978.

New reality TV show seeking creative Madison-area amateur chefs
Bring your most original dish to the casting call in Madison Dec. 7
By Sam Garigliano
Reality television is coming to Madison.
Thankfully, it's nothing along the lines of "Mendota Shore" or "Real Housewives: Dane County." Instead, Spike TV's forthcoming "Frankenfood" show will pit amateur chefs against one another in a battle to decide who makes the best original dish. Madison is one of the show's eight featured cities, and producers are holding auditions Dec. 7 at the Sheraton Hotel.
"We are looking for every age, every background," says Whitney Parshall of Sharp Entertainment, which is producing the show—whether you've been cooking all your life or just happen to have a killer meatball recipe. Those interested in auditioning are asked to fill out a questionnaire and bring a plate of their most interesting food concoction to the casting call—emphasis on interesting. A select group of culinary concoctions deemed worthy will get the chance to go on the show (filming is slated for early 2014). And what do the competitors receive for their efforts? If they are successful in wowing the judges, comprised of food experts, restaurant owners and chefs, the winner receives $10,000 and gets to see his or her plate on the menu of a to-be-determined local restaurant.
"Frankenfood" marks another notch in the belt of the Madison's food scene's recent run in with national attention. Just two months ago, Fox News named Madison a "top foodie paradise." Within days of that story, local places like Madison Sourdough, Fromagination, Karben4 and Underground Butcher were featured on an episode of the Food Network's "Heartland Table." And around this time last year, the Wisconsin burger joint with a Madison location, AJ Bombers, was featured on the Discovery channel's "United States of Bacon." This recent spate of local food attention from national entities is no surprise to us, but it will nonetheless be interesting to see how well Madisonians fare in a competition over who can make the weirdest, tastiest food. So if you or someone you know has that bizarre family recipe that has no business tasting heavenly, but somehow manages to blow everyone away, head on over to the Sheraton Hotel between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. on Dec. 7 and contribute to Madison's gradual rise to national food fame.

More than 100,000 patients in California hospitals have a central line inserted each year. Contamination of the line during insertion can cause infection, often resulting in serious illness and substantial increased healthcare costs. It is estimated that more than half of CLABSIs may be preventable if hospitals adhere to all of the recommended central line insertion practices (CLIP), which together are called a bundle, for each central line insertion. The CLIP bundle includes eight components: hand hygiene, recommended skin preparation agent, allowing the skin preparation agent to dry, and five maximal sterile barriers (cap, mask, gown, gloves, and drape). Hospitals can monitor and enforce adherence to the CLIP bundle by using a checklist.
This is the third California Department of Public Health (CDPH) report on central line insertion practices (CLIP) in intensive care units, including neonatal intensive care units. This report summarizes data reported to the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) from January 1, 2011 through December 31, 2011. Complete adherence to all of the recommended practices increased to 95.7% of insertions for January 1, 2011 through December 31, 2011 compared to 94.9% for April 1, 2010 through March 31, 2011. For the 2011 reporting period, the CDPH Healthcare-Associated Infections (HAI) Program contacted all hospitals to ensure that complete CLIP observation data were submitted to NHSN, resulting in reporting compliance of 98.7% of hospitals. California is the first state to issue a public report on CLIP adherence.
Adherence to the CLIP bundle is defined as the following eight individual components during each central line insertion:
This report provides information to help hospitals begin or continue to use CLIP data as a quality improvement tool. Hospitals may also link CLIP data with central-line associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI) data to connect prevention practices with infection outcomes.
The public and consumers can use information in this report to ask their healthcare providers about strategies their hospital uses to prevent CLABSIs, including monitoring CLIP adherence, and ask about CLIP adherence results. Consumers can also ask their healthcare providers about actions they can take to ensure their safety in the hospital, including protecting against CLABSIs.

The worst violence seen between Israel and Palestine in years began in Jerusalem in June, with the seizure and murder of three Israeli teenagers who were doing nothing more than heading from school to home in the West Bank. Tensions reached the boiling point when these killings were followed by the revenge slaying of a Palestinian teen. Since then the conflict of Israeli–Palestinian, always simmering beneath the surface, has increased in intensity with massive Israeli airstrikes that have killed hundreds and left many more homeless, and punctuated by Palestinian rocket attacks. Israel followed its airstrikes with a martial ground operation known as Operation Protective Edge into Gaza.
For people alive in the area, the situation has become desperate, with truce after truce falling through and no end to the conflict in sight. Now these individuals must accept the reality of mass death, air raid sirens and fleeing their homes for shelters as part of their every day life. But they are not alone in their suffering. Protests have sprung up in countries like the United States, Europe and even Africa.
While the majority of these protests have been peaceful, some of these demonstrations have also ended in violence, with protests in the United States and France turning hostile. In Paris a mob carrying baseball bats, broken bottles and even knives stormed a synagogue. A pro-Israel rally in Los Angeles deteriorated into violence after one of the demonstrators reportedly stomped on a Palestinian flag.
Elsewhere around the world including Germany there have been hostile confrontations between demonstrators from both sides of the conflict. These tensions have now subsided, however, the fact that they exist in the first place is disturbing.
If the latest Gaza truce continues to last and Israel ends its Operation Protective Edge, what has really been accomplished? Both Israel and Hamas will insist that military victory is theirs, with Israel boasting of the destruction of Hamas militant tunnels and the huge dent made in their rocket supply; Hamas will brag about the dozens of Israeli troops that were killed and the fact that despite Israel's best efforts, Hamas leadership in Gaza is still alive and well. Now it's left for the Palestinian people to hold their breath and wait for the next conflict to arise. And they know that it will, sooner or later, as it always does.
The only real difference is that relations between the United States and Israel are now more strained than ever. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President Barack Obama have had tensions between them for years, and their already frayed relationship doesn't appear to be heading towards reconciliation any time soon.

For instance, Object Pascal uses the module approach, except that logically the file is divided into "interface" and "implementation". It has no preprocessor of any real worth (but that doesn't seem to hurt the language much), and is lightning fast. If you are fixing syntax errors, it's quicker to simply hit ctrl-f9 in the delphi IDE to recompile than move your hands from the keyboard to the mouse and back again to move to the next bug.
Part of the reason it can be so quick, is that (a) Borland make very fast compilers and (b) the Object Pascal language is conducive to fast compiles. The built in dependency tracking usually works very well - there are no Makefiles, it (spew) Just Works.
There are limitations of course. You cannot tie the interfaces of two units to each other (ie if you declare class A in unit UA.pas and class B in UB.pas you cannot have class B have a class A as a member and also vice-versa). That's a "circular unit reference" and is illegal. It can be very annoying at times, but typically if that occurs it reflects some problem in the design of your code anyway, so might as well do some refactoring while you are there.

Fall TV 2013: The 10 Best New Shows [Trailers]
- By
- 41 Comments
Last week ABC, CBS, CW, NBC and Fox announced their new 2013 fall line-ups, including shows from J.J. Abrams (Almost Human), Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci (Sleepy Hollow) and Joss Whedon (Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.). But with over 40+ new shows set to air this year, it can be a bit challenging to watch every single one.
So, to help make things a bit easier, here's a list of 10 best new TV show trailers for the Fall 2013 season. Now, to be fair, great pilot trailers aren't always indicative of the quality of the series. However, what great trailers do show is a series' potential to tell great stories in the future.
We'll start with the dramas, then the comedies, and then finish it all off with a couple honorable mentions at the end. Enjoy!

Information you should know about credit.
What is credit?
Credit is an agreement between a lending organization (such as a bank, store or credit card company) and you, the borrower. That agreement puts money in your hand, in your bank, or on a credit card, for your use. The terms of repayment, including interest charges, are usually set up front and are governed by an agreement between you and your issung bank.
Differences between Credit and Debit cards
Credit Card
Establishing credit
First, apply for a credit card that meets your needs and spending habits. See Find a Card. As you pay off your purchases in a timely manner, you'll build a good credit history.
Maintaining good credit
The most important thing to do is pay your credit card bill
regularly. Pay the entire bill, or as much as you can afford (at least
the minimum payment), each month.
Understanding your credit report
When you ask for a loan or credit, lenders check your credit rating.
This is typically a numeric ranking that indicates how creditworthy
previous lenders think you are.

On which side does one put the but? Is Mr. Marmalade dark but life-affirming, or life-affirming but dark? I guess it depends on your tolerance for grim realities.
Written by Noah Haidle, the play is also funny, basically, in a you gotta laugh or you're gonna cry sort of way. Epic Theatre Company is presenting the Rhode Island premiere through November 25, with Ross Gavlin directing its 70 briskly paced, smartly cast, and marvelously acted minutes.
Lucy (Vanessa Blanchette) is four years old and going on 24. She has an active imagination in the same worrisome way that Mount Pinatubo is an active volcano. You don't know what will spill forth. She has an imaginary friend, Mr. Marmalade (Jason Quinn), quite unlike those of most children, the least disturbing aspect of which is that he is an impatient, angry grown-up.
The two actors couldn't be more on the money for their characters. Blanchette is diminutive, with a high-pitched voice that naturally sounds childlike, sprouting pigtails and wearing a Hello Kitty T-shirt. Quinn is a large, hulking presence that makes Mr. Marmalade appear even more sinister by contrast, especially in his funereal black business suit.
You know how children sometimes mimic what they hear parents saying, processing and practicing their gender roles? Well, Lucy is patiently trying to cope — having a coffee party rather than a tea party — with an imaginary, ill-tempered, cocaine-sniffing husband who is always impatient to get back to the office. No amount of calm cajoling will get him to take some time off so they can fly to Mexico and vacation in Cabo. But we start worrying when she asks, "How come you don't touch me anymore?"
We look as much to her diner waitress mother (Sarah Barlow) to figure her out. This is a single mom who asks her four-year-old which dress she should wear on a date, making us wonder whether giving respect and responsibility to a kid in this instance is a way to shrug off her own responsibility. This mom is also careless about whom she gets for a babysitter (also played by Barlow). When it's the teenager's turn to ask how she looks for her date, Lucy instantly quips: "Easy." This babysitter would rather watch TV than pay attention to Lucy, not to mention go off to have sex with her creepy boyfriend, George (Joshua Christensen, who is very good: when he appeared later as a happy-go-lucky character — an imaginary cactus, actually — at first I thought he was a different actor). Cactus and Flower (Barlow) are imaginary friends, a yin-yang existential coping mechanism, that Lucy's young friend Larry introduces to her. (But why is Cactus smiling?)
Since Mr. Marmalade is always so busy, Lucy imagines an assistant for him, Bradley (T.C. Belli), who also announces and humorously describes upcoming scenes for us. At one point, Bradley is wearing sunglasses to hide black eyes that her boss gave her for not assisting well enough. A good sign is that Lucy threatens to call the police if Mr. Marmalade hits her again. We are cued to Lucy coming out of this well by the end.

Documentary screened on inner city ministry, March 9
Posted March 4, 2004; 05:30 p.m.
"God and the Inner City," a one-hour documentary about the struggles of the Rev. Gene Rivers and others who battle crime in inner cities, will be screened at 8 p.m. Tuesday, March 9, in 104 Computer Science Building. Michael Pack, executive producer and director of the film, will be on hand to answer questions after the screening.
The documentary, narrated by Phylicia Rashad, explores how faith-based organizations that are doing street work seldom fit stereotypes of inner city ministries. It also reviews the controversy about government support for such programs, especially the issue of church/state separation. It originally aired on PBS on June 22, 2003.
Pack's other documentaries include "Rediscovering George Washington," "The Fall of Newt Gingrich," "The Rodney King Incident," "Campus Culture Wars" and "America's Political Parties." He currently serves as the senior vice president for television programming at the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
This event is made possible by the James Madison Program in American Ideals and Institutions through its Alpheus T. Mason Lecture series. For more information, call Judi Rivkin at (609) 258-5107.
