Question about Tug of war that benefits retrieve vs grip.
Now, my dog is 9 months. She lost her gripe after teething. When she was a pup, she had tight grip and she wanted to fight. She pulled flirt pole all the time.
So, I bought the power of playing tug of war by Michael Ellis from leerburg and watched it. Michael suggests not to let the dog run around with the tug, but the dog should come back to the handler to play again for the retrieve purpose. My trainer tell me to play tug of war with my dog and let her win and let her keeps the tug and run around for better grip.
My question is which method should I apply first?
Because if I let her keep the tug and run around I might have difficult time to deal with retrieve. If she give the tug back to me, she will not want to possess the toy and loosen her grip.
Please correct me if my understanding was wrong.

I haven't seen the Leerburg video, and we aren't training our dog for any real purpose other than having fun, but for what it's worth we play the following game, and it's been great for retrieval, for learning "out" (or drop it). So - this might totally not answer what you're asking. :)
We have a great tug (it's the zoloflex bumi by westpaw design) that our 11 month old loves and also a very durable chewber frisbee thingee. She gets maybe 15 seconds of all out tug, and then we say "out" and she drops the tug and we throw the chewber. She races after it and drops the chewber at our feet and goes for the bumi that we had hidden behind our backs. Repeat. After about 20 minutes she's totally wiped out. We won't throw the chewber till she drops the bumi, and she can't have the bumi till she drops the chewber. Also - if she doesn't drop the chewber close enough, then she has to go back and get it and drop it close before she gets the bumi again.
She goes all out on both the tug and the retrieve, and because she values both of them so much we've been able to add in more commands to both before she gets what she wants. It's been a great training tool.
9 months her jaws are probably still sore so I wouldn't worry about the grip
a little bit of walking around I don't mind but I also prefer the dog to come back and play with me with the tug - ME's idea is you want 'you' to be fun not the toy, so if she carries it around she should hopefully get bored of that - don't chase her, don't laugh, don't praise the carrying it around because tugs are not supposed to have value - you are.
Mine carries it for a second just out of habit and then prefers to come back, so I wouldn't scold or something for prancing with it, just don't reward it and it should fade away
Still when I let go of tug, she looks happy and runs with the tug for 4-5 rounds. I tried to call her but she doesn't seem to want to give it to me.

I literally ignored her when she was running with the tug, didn't smile at her or anything, but if she started to come towards me on her own will even a little I patted my legs and encouraged. If she tried that thing where she gets arms reach and I reach out and she dances backwards for chase, I turned my back and walked away. It took about a week. Now she doesn't do it anymore and she likes to run right up so I can grab it. :)
You need rules in your tug play, and once the rules are known this kind of crap isn't a problem.
What rules do you need.
When you say out the dog should out.
When you give a signal for the dog to return the tug to you the dog should return the tug back to you.
The dog shouldn't go for the toy until you release them to allow them to access the tug.
Break a rule? Suffer a consequence and stoppage of play.
I won't go into detail about how to create those rules that's the kind of thing Id get cash monies for teaching.
Once you have those rules in place it's game on. I can have my dog win the tug and allow him possession and chase him and let him play keep away. Most trainers would be like don't do that! Why the **** not? If a dog enjoys possession then let them possess. The whole point to tug is to reward a dog. There is value in possession for many dogs. As long as they return the tug when you signal for it back then everything is groovy.
Now will that help grips? I have my doubts. It's either there or it's not and if it is you find it in bite work not in tug play.
From watching the Power of playing tug, plus another webmail video Michael ellis has done, and comparing that with what your trainer has said... M.E. and your trainer have 2 different perspectives.
Since youre paying for your training, and work with him... I would follow his advice at least at the club.
M.E.'s focus is on engament training and building handler focus. The retrieve is an added bonus because it becomes inherent. In the web mail, M.E. says that tug playing is different than bitework playing. That when playing tug M.E. isn't worried about grip so to say. M.E. does say you can help with grip by playing tug by pulling on the tug when your dog has a full grip and stroking the dogs head gentl and praising, then relseasing. But the purpose of playing tug, is to build focus and re enforce handler engagement.
Your trainer obviously feels different where he wants the tug to help re enforce the bite work by working on full bites while playing tug.
Long line. Circle, dog comes back, pet, circle, comes back, fight, circle, comes back, out, etc. Mix up the game, but they work on a long line so then they cant go away with the toy. Builds good habits.
Sorry, one handed typing.

When I started to research my family history, I dutifully interviewed my grandmother, asking her questions like when and where she was born, the names of her parents, when and where they were born, the names and birth dates of her siblings, the names of her grandparents and when and where they were born and died. Then, as all the genealogy how-to books advised, I verified everything she told me in one record or another.
I hated doing oral history interviews. My grandmother hated being interviewed.
It was a long, long time before I tried again. By then, Grandma was gone, so I interviewed her cousin Isabel. I followed the same procedure, asking about names, dates and places. Finally Isabel had enough of my pestering for facts: "Please don't ask me any more questions," she said. "I've told you everything I know." She stopped answering my letters, and when I called she pretended I had the wrong number.
So much for quizzing relatives for genealogical data. Besides, why bother asking questions I could find the answers to in a record somewhere? What was the point?
Then I met a social historian who taught me a better way of doing oral history interviewing—the oral historian's way. Instead of asking who, where and when, I should have been asking why, how and what. I learned to unlock my relatives' memories and to tap the family history that's not in the record books—people's thoughts, feelings and motivations. Trust me, the census record enumerating Great-uncle Mortimer's family will still be around long after we're all dead and gone. But the sense of what life was like in the past, the memories that make a person unique, will go to the grave with that person—unless you ask the right questions.
The right questions to ask in an oral history interview go beyond "just the facts, ma'am":
Notice that none of these questions can be answered with a simple "yes" or "no." These questions require the person to think about the answers and will give you information that's more interesting than dry names and dates.

NEW YORK -- Just like Jayson Werth, the Washington Nationals are playing their best ball of the season. Whether that'll be enough to push them into the playoffs, they'll soon find out.
Werth kept up his power surge with a home run and two doubles, leading the charging Nationals past the New York Mets 6-3 on Tuesday night for their fourth straight win.
The Nationals have won six of seven, and have 18 games left this season. They closed within six games of Cincinnati for the final NL wild-card spot.
"We kind of waited around too long," Werth said.
A year after the Nationals topped the majors with 98 wins, they went into spring training with World Series hopes. Werth said he thought Washington might come out flat this season, but "I didn't expect it to go on as long as it did."
"We're good," he said. "It's not over. We're in a bad spot, that's for sure."
Jordan Zimmermann wound up with his NL-leading 17th victory and Rafael Soriano closed for his 40th save as Washington tries to make a late run to the postseason.
"We basically have to win out," Nationals manager Davey Johnson said.
Adam LaRoche and pinch-hitter Scott Hairston also homered and Denard Span extended his hitting streak to 21 games. Catcher Wilson Ramos threw out two runners who tried to steal second and lined an RBI single.
Werth has gone 10 for 18 during Washington's winning streak with two homers and five doubles. He's scored five runs and driven in five while raising his batting average to .328.
Werth homered in consecutive games for the fourth time this season. Before this year, he had done it only twice since joining the Nats in 2011.
Zimmermann (17-8) topped the Mets for the first time in five starts this season. He gave up three runs and eight hits in five-plus innings.
"I didn't have very good command of any pitches," he said. "I lost everything."
Zimmermann, Colorado's Jorge De La Rosa and St. Louis' Adam Wainwright all started the day with 16 wins. Detroit's Max Scherzer tops the majors with 19.
Relievers Craig Stammen, Drew Storen, Tyler Clippard and Soriano combined for four scoreless innings. Soriano reached 40 saves for his third team, having done it with Tampa Bay and the New York Yankees.
Werth hit his 23rd homer in the first and LaRoche led off the second with his 19th. Both homers sailed into the Party City Deck above the wall in left-center field, and LaRoche's drive was caught on the fly by a fan wearing a Mets jersey.
Before the game, perhaps aware Washington launched five homers the previous night, about 100 fans perched on the deck railing as the Nationals took batting practice. Many of them wound up with souvenirs -- so did a Washington player, who retrieved a hat that tumbled from the stands, playfully put it on and then tossed it back into the seats.
"These guys are hitting them out of here like this is a bandbox, and we know it's not. When you can hit them that good, you're making pitches in bad spots," Mets manager Terry Collins said.
Washington's eight homers are the most in consecutive games by any team in Citi Field history.
Span and Werth doubled in the third for a 3-0 lead. Werth doubled again in the sixth and scored on a two-out single by Ramos for a 4-1 lead. Hairston hit a two-run homer in the ninth on Tim Byrdak's first pitch.
Matt den Dekker chased Zimmermann with a two-run single in the sixth. Justin Turner doubled and hit an RBI single, but left with tightness in his right hamstring as the Mets lost for the seventh time in nine games.
Dillon Gee (11-10) left in the seventh with the Mets down 4-3. He was trying to beat the Nationals for the fifth time this year -- the only Mets pitchers to defeat an opponent five times in a season are Tom Seaver (Pittsburgh, 1973), Dwight Gooden (Cubs, 1985) and R.A. Dickey (Marlins, 2012).
OF Bryce Harper rejoined the Nationals after being checked in Washington for a sore left hip, and hit some deep drives in batting practice. He sat out, but Johnson said he expects the 20-year-old star can play Wednesday night. He hasn't been in the lineup since being scratched Saturday. "It was nice to be able to get a clear mind," Harper said of the medical checkup. ... Ramos made his 18th straight start, the most by a Nationals catcher since the team started playing in Washington in 2005. Ramos is hitting .419 with 23 RBI in 26 career games vs. the Mets. ... Mets closer Bobby Parnell had surgery on a herniated disk in his neck. Collins said he didn't have a timetable for Parnell's recovery and didn't yet know whether he'd be ready for spring training.

Nice Gun. I have a Thompson Center .44 Mag. with a Scope. The .44 sure shoots good.
I had the same gun and setup and I'm so mad that I gave it up. It was a lot of fun to reload for and shoot.
Can't say anything bad about a gun chambered in a cartridge that recently turned 50 years old. :wink:
I like it...a lot. Never fired a SRH, but I bet it's a sweet 44.
I'll get in line to shoot it! It looks like FUN! :smt026
thanks guys, it is a lot of fun, but sometimes she bites my finger. gets pinched between the trigger and the frame, hurts like sh%* ! very accurate though, you 'bout can't miss. funny thing though, they make me shoot it on the rifle range at the local shooters express.
I'd rather shoot that baby at a distance!
Got one many years ago. Had it magnaported and restocked with Hogue grips. Now it shoots HOT loads and recoils like a 357 magnum. Use it for hunting wild boar.

Speech Communication Department
Why study communication?
The National Association of Colleges and Employers reports, after surveying several hundred companies, that oral communication ranked as the number one most sought after skill when hiring employees—teamwork and interpersonal skills were ranked closely behind.
It is not surprising that those with effective communication skills are more likely to get hired and advance in the professional world. In fact, in a survey conducted by the Journal of Business Communication, 98 precent of Fortune 500 vice presidents believed communication skills positively affected their advancement to top executive positions.
Effective communicators are more likely to have satisfying
interpersonal relationships, better able to resolve conflict, and more
capable of sparking social change.

Discussion in 'Pistons and NBA' started by blueadams, Dec 26, 2013.
I liked Knight's personality, but it never manifested in on the court gains.
I agree. We were a train wreck though and he was a 20-21 year old PG. He showed some great flashes in his time with us. 3 games with 30 or more points 5 games with 10 or more assists 67 games with multiple 3-point makes Pope-like D. Held his man to 11.2 PER at PG spot (.433 eFG) and 12.7 PER at SG last year. But there was something missing on offense. The assist/tov ratio was always very poor, which made people wonder whether he was a SG. His J has a low release and suffers greatly when contested, which would make him a below average offensive player at SG. His niche will have to be as a defensive PG that punishes defenses with his range if they sag. For that to work, he'll actually need to improve for the next few years, which is relatively rare overall, but for young PGs, there are examples. His defensive ability is something that a lot of young PGs don't have. Tons of guys are better distributors though and it comes more naturally to them.
I also liked Knight (and also criticized his trade at the time) but he has obvious faults which he must improve before becoming a legit starter. I would've liked to keep him as a substitute for another year or two but I guess that wasn't possible. With that said, I really like Jennings this year. I think that even before his skills I like his attitude and connection with this team, he's shown real effort in my eyes.
The biggest problem with his game was his dribbling. He dribbled really high for a guy his size, and seemed out of control too often. IIRC, his assist/passing TO ratio was on par with many other PGs in the league, but his ball handling TOs were too high.
Hence the broomstick drills.
Hindsight 20/20.........Not sure any of this is possible but I would have tried none the less. Draft: MCW. Amnesty CV. I'd still sign Josh Smith. 3 team trade. Orl gets Jennings, Milw gets Knight/Middleton and we get Alf. MCW/ ALF / Smith / Monroe / Drummond
I'd love to have ALF on the roster.
That team has one 3 point shooter, 2 slashers and 2 guys with no range beyond 10 feet. So we are literally in the same position, maybe even worse.
I strongly, strongly disagree.
Well I guess I guessed better than Joe-D this off-season.
Iggy was going wherever the money was. And I think Sloan would've come out to coach such a talented team.
Its not 20/20. Its what I said at the time.
1-We're not a shooting team. We're an inside team, and a running team. And I think that it would be a better outside shooting team, with Burke and Middleton. And I think Smith is fine at the 3 when he's there, and even better when he's giving someone else a break inside. And I think Sloan would've loved to have coached such a talented group.
20/20 means clear and in focus. In was a compliment.
He took less money to sign with Golden state? So that happens to be untrue.
Separate names with a comma.

Dialectic Behavior Therapy is the primary approach used in treating those who restrict or binge. This addictive cycle can be overcome if client's are willing to complete homework assignments and work with their treatment team. Body image issues have become more common in the American culture due to the unrealistic portrayal of women in the media. It is my goal to increase women's awareness of the negative messages that are received on a daily basis and help them to listen to their body as if it were their best friend.

Gardening in small spaces
15/02/2013 , 5:11 PM by Dominic Knight
Recently, some of our colleagues here at ABC Ultimo have been putting together a little garden on the Dot Strong Terrace, a communal area named after the ABC's last tea lady.
Despite being above a busy road, the plants are thriving, and has made the terrace a more pleasant place to eat lunch or take a break.
We posted this picture of our garden on Facebook earlier in the week, and asked what everyone was growing at home. After lots of responses, we thought we'd take a closer look at what works best on balcony and rooftop gardens.
Indira Naidoo has been experimenting on her balcony in inner-city Sydney for a few years now, and last year she grew an astonishing 70kg of produce in a small outdoor area! She's collected the results in her book The Edible Balcony, along with recipes.
I asked Indira what plants worked best on balcony gardens, and which were the most robust to try out for novice gardeners like me. And if you've managed to grow anything in a small space, let us know your tips in the comments below.

AMES, Iowa — Holiday plants are one way to extend the cheer of the holiday season and serve as a reminder of cherished time we spent with friends and family. Horticulturists with ISU Extension and Outreach say keeping these plants looking good through the holiday season and beyond is not as difficult as some might expect.
Place the poinsettia in a plant sleeve or carefully wrap it before transporting the plant home. Exposing the poinsettia to freezing temperatures, even for a few minutes, may cause its bracts and leaves to blacken and drop. As soon as you get home, unwrap the poinsettia and place it near a sunny window or other well-lit location. However, don't let the plant touch the cold window pane. Also, keep the poinsettia away from cold drafts or heat sources. Poinsettias prefer temperatures between 60 and 70 F.
Water needs can be determined with your finger. Check the potting soil daily. When the soil surface becomes dry to the touch, water the plant until water begins to flow out the bottom of the pot. The pots of most poinsettias are placed inside decorative pot covers. When watering a poinsettia, carefully remove the pot covering, water the plant in the sink, then drop the poinsettia back into the pot cover.
When given good care, a poinsettia should remain attractive for several weeks. Poinsettias are normally discarded after the holiday season.
Plants commonly referred to as Christmas cacti include the true Christmas cactus (Schumbergera bridgesii), Thanksgiving cactus (Schumbergera truncata) and numerous hybrids.
While Christmas and Thanksgiving cacti are similar in appearance, there are differences. The flattened stem segments (phylloclades) on the Christmas cactus have rounded margins. Christmas cacti typically bloom in December or January. The phylloclade margins on the Thanksgiving cactus possess two to four saw-toothed projections. Thanksgiving cacti typically bloom in November or December.
While there are differences in their appearance and bloom time, the cultural requirements for Christmas and Thanksgiving cacti are the same.
Christmas and Thanksgiving cacti prefer bright, indirect light and temperatures of 60 to 70 F. In spring and summer (when plants are actively growing) water plants about once every seven days and fertilize every two to four weeks with a dilute fertilizer solution. In fall and winter, keep plants a bit on the dry side. A thorough watering every seven to 10 days is usually sufficient.
Christmas and Thanksgiving cacti are short-day plants. Plants will not bloom properly if exposed to artificial light at night. In late summer/early fall, place plants in a cool (60 to 65 F) location that receives bright light during the day, but no artificial light at night. An unused bedroom or basement may have the proper environmental conditions. Continue to give plants good, consistent care during flower bud development. Moving plants from one location to another, excessive watering or other marked changes to their care during flower bud development may cause the buds to drop off. The Christmas cactus can be moved and displayed in another room when the first flowers begin to open.
When given good care and a favorable environment, Christmas and Thanksgiving cacti are long-lived plants. Plants are often passed from one generation to the next.
The Norfolk Island pine is a popular houseplant. During the holiday season, many individuals turn their plants into living Christmas trees by decorating them with miniature lights, ribbons and ornaments. The Norfolk Island pine thrives indoors when given good, consistent care. Place the Norfolk Island pine in a brightly lit location near an east, west or south window. Rotate the plant weekly to prevent the plant from growing toward the light and becoming lopsided. Thoroughly water the Norfolk Island pine when the soil surface becomes dry to the touch. Discard the excess water that drains out the bottom of the pot. From spring to early fall, fertilize the plant with a dilute fertilizer solution every two to four weeks. A temperature of 60 to 75 F is suitable for the Norfolk Island pine. Winter is often a difficult time because of low relative humidity levels in most homes. Raise the humidity level around the Norfolk Island pine with a humidifier or place the plant on a tray or saucer containing pebbles and water. (Make sure the water level does not reach the bottom of the pot.) Low relative humidity levels, insufficient light or excessively dry soil conditions may induce browning of branch tips and lead to the loss of the lower branches.

Solutions for Today's Challenges
The Critical Aggression Prevention System (CAPS)
Scientifically validated to reliably
such issues as workplace violence, bullying, verbal abuse, sexual and other forms of harassment, discrimination, militancy, and even terrorism by providing training and systems that prepare individuals and organizations to recognize and stop aggression
Copyright 2012, All Rights Reserved,
Center for Aggression Management
as it emerges --- before the crisis stage is reached.
We offer the highest form of evidence-based Best Pratices for organizations of all types to
dramatically improve safety and productivity
by advancing their effectiveness in preventing the issues listed above.
J. Randy Ryan, District Manager at AlliedBarton Security explains:
For years, I have presented Active Shooter and Workplace Violence seminars and Tabletop Exercises. I have always been troubled that we have talked mostly about the actions and aftermath. The Center for Aggression Management has put my mind at ease with the Critical Aggression Prevention System (CAPS). CAPS is the "ounce of prevention" that has been missing from the standard approach to workplace violence. The lives saved by using this approach could be countless. For more comments by Security Professionals
For all organizations, providing
Aggression Manager
training to key management, behavioral intervention, threat assessment, human resource or security personnel will yield tremendous benefits. These individuals will be able to use their ability to recognize and assess aggressive behavior and effectuate or direct appropriate responses in time to prevent issues from reaching more advanced, damaging stages.
For many organizations, implementing
The Critical Aggression Prevention System
will provide tremendous additional benefits in moving toward the
Safest Possible Organization,"
the highest form of evidence-based Best Practices!
is very affordable and practical to implement.
will provide additional knowledge, skills and systems that will make your management, behavioral intervention, threat assessment, human resource and security teams dramatically more proactive and effective in preventing violence and these other damaging behavioral issues.
With CAPS, your organization will achieve the consistent observations, assessments, communications, responses, and documentation that are needed for these teams to maximize prevention, avoid wasted time and expense, and reduce liabilities related to failure to react appropriately or in time to prevent a tragedy. Because we use only "Aggressive Behavior," and judge it on its merits,
we avoid oppressive HIPAA and privacy regulations!
The Link is
An individual must move through a recognizable
Aggression Continuum
on the path to causing workplace violence, bullying, verbal abuse, sexual and other forms of harassment, and other damaging issues you strive to prevent. This is true of the person that becomes the adrenaline-driven, red-faced, ready-to-explode "Primal" Aggressor. This is also true of the often missed tactical, intent-driven "Cognitive" Aggressor who too often becomes the mass shooter or terrorist. This is also true regardless of the root cause driving the aggressor's behavior.
The Center for Aggression Management has developed the knowledge and skills you need to recognize
aggression -- as it emerges
, which will allow you to intervene before the
crisis stage
is reached -- that stage where violence and catastrophe occur! This knowledge and skill set applies to both the Primal (adranline-driven) and Cognitive (intent-driven) Aggressor and transcends the mental health, social, political, or religious root causes of the aggressor's behavior.
Because we use only "Aggressive Behavior," and judge it on its merits,
we avoid oppressive HIPAA and privacy regulations!
With these skills,
your prevention teams will be equipped to be truly effective and proactive
in preventing the violence and other serious behavioral issues that are plaguing our workplaces, campuses, schools, hospitals, religious settings, and other organizations today.

Since it is art though, it still bugs me not to see it, but its a minor... really doesn't matter since it looks great as is. Just was something that seemed too appropriate to pass up... but that just my take and not yours.
Ironically, you're correct that if printed, the paint used to create little Test Tube would not require red. It would have been funny if the colors of the parents were reversed, cause then we'd all know...the beaker wasn't the father. Mmmwhahaha!

Yes, there are more steps, but this is the core procedure as taught to the 7th grade students in my school. I collaborated with a science teacher to focus on the main steps and simplify the process so it would make a wearable shirt. I hope you like the design anyway.

Hi Jesse. Thank you as always for your wonderful and insightful input. You are the queen of spotting a good thumbnail, in this case I immediately felt that the thumbnail promised more than the design delivered, so I knew that this was going no where.
I tried dressing this up in nighttime colors when I began coloring it, and maybe that would have helped, but the whole thing is very silly, my husband said, after looking at it, might as well go all unicorns and rainbows with the colors, so I did, which was fun cuz I do love me some pink and purple.

How you'd redo without it, I have NO clue, just throwing it out there.
You don't really need the numbers...it just helps process the image faster which means that it might be more likely to get the vote.
When I saw it in the pre-derby thread I didn't even see the numbers at first, and I laughed pretty hard, but it took me maybe 2 seconds to "get it". It might hurt to not have numbers...but in the off chance that it does get rejected for the ellipses submit it without numbers.

rjohnson313 wrote:You could make the argument that it's science, but I don't see how you can justify it as scientific method.
Scientific method refers to a body of techniques for investigating phenomena, acquiring new knowledge, or correcting and integrating previous knowledge. To be termed scientific, a method of inquiry must be based on gathering observable, empirical and measurable evidence subject to specific principles of reasoning. A scientific method consists of the collection of data through observation and experimentation, and the formulation and testing of hypotheses.
(thanks Wikipedia!)
In everyday speech what I'm trying to say is is...
This shirt is about Forming a Hypothesis: "I can totally kill a dragon in ONE hit Booya!" gathering data through rolling dice and collecting that data. Then testing that hypothesis - "One hit kill - Snoochie Bootchies!"
That good enough of a case?

maybe this helps to explain:

My take on "The Scientific Method" is that of a rock band.

Administrative Separation of the President and Chancellors
The UNC Policy Manual
Adopted 08/12/05
Administrative Separation of the President and Chancellors
1. Retreat to a faculty position: If a chancellor resigns from the position of chancellor, or if the president resigns from the position of president, after having served in that position for at least five years, if the chancellor or the president will assume a tenured or non-tenured faculty position at a constituent institution of the University of North Carolina, and if there is not good cause to terminate the chancellor's or the president's service at the time that the chancellor or president resigns, then the chancellor or president will receive a one year research leave at the chancellor's or the president's most recent administrative salary. Non-salary compensation such as a house and an automobile will not be continued during the one year research leave.
At the end of the research leave, the chancellor or president will assume the faculty position with a nine month appointment, with duties and responsibilities in accordance with departmental expectations. The initial annual faculty salary will be the greater of 60% of the most recent annual administrative salary or a salary that is commensurate with the salaries of comparable faculty members in comparable positions.
2. Separation from the University. In some cases, a chancellor or a president may not be assuming a faculty position. It may be in the best interest of the University and a chancellor for the University to negotiate a severance agreement with a chancellor. In these circumstances, the president may, at the president's discretion, determine that the circumstances justify providing severance pay in the amount of the chancellor's full administrative pay for up to 90 days. Non-salary compensation such as a house and an automobile will not be continued during this period of full compensation, although the president may allow the chancellor a reasonable amount of time to vacate the chancellor's house. Any agreement that results in a longer period of compensation must be approved by the Board of Governors.
The Board of Governors may, in its discretion, negotiate a severance agreement with a president who is resigning and is not assuming a faculty position.
3. Separate agreement: If the Board of Governors enters into a written agreement with a president or a chancellor, the terms of that agreement shall supercede this policy.
*Applies to individuals who began service in a covered position prior to 01/08/10.

Rainwater Harvesting for Drylands and Beyond Vol. 2
Earthworks are one of the easiest, least expensive, and most effective ways of passively harvesting and conserving multiple sources of water in the soil. Associated vegetation then pumps the harvested water back out in the form of beauty, food, shelter, wildlife habitat, and passive heating and cooling strategies, while controlling erosion, increasing soil fertility, reducing downstream flooding, and improving water and air quality.
Building on the information presented in Volume 1, this book shows you how to select, place, size, construct, and plant your chosen water-harvesting earthworks. It presents detailed how-to information and variations of a diverse array of earthworks, including chapters on mulch, vegetation, and greywater recycling so you can customize the techniques to the unique requirements of your site.
Real life stories and examples permeate the book, including:
About the Author
Brad Lancaster has taught, designed, and consulted on the sustainable design system of permaculture and integrated rainwater harvesting systems since 1993. He lives on the thriving 1/8th-acre urban permaculture site he created in downtown Tucson, Arizona. ...

Georgia Wildlife Resources Division
2067 U.S. Hwy. 278, SE, Social Circle, GA 30025
Mountain bogs are one of the most critically endangered habitats of the southern Appalachians. Typically small, between a half-acre and five acres, they are associated with seeps, springs or small creeks and provide critical habitat for the federally threatened bog turtle and swamp pink, two of Georgia's rarest species.
Bog restoration involves not only clearing sites but also finding and taking careful inventory of potential bogs, safeguarding seeds from rare plants and monitoring restored sites for rare species such as the pitcherplant. Mountain bog restoration is listed as a high-priority conservation action in Georgia's State Wildlife Action Plan.
One of the key components of bog restoration work is the capability to bring together a network of agencies, organizations and volunteers in order to complete what often turns out to be a multi-year ordeal. While agencies such as DNR and the U.S. Forest Service begin the initial overhaul of the sites, much of the maintenance falls upon partner-created organizations like the Georgia Plant Conservation Alliance (GPCA), whose members include the Atlanta Botanical Garden, State Botanical Garden of Georgia, DNR, DOT, Georgia Power, Georgia Forest Watch and Zoo Atlanta, to name a few.

Hi, just bidding on some old arm/navy overalls im ginna use for the jumpsuit what do yah think?
Do u think i will have to dye them...i think green would look a bit to strong...but then i have to bleach them......skanky work!
Hi, just bidding on some old arm/navy overalls im ginna use for the jumpsuit what do yah think?
Do u think i will have to dye them...i think green would look a bit to strong...but then i have to bleach them......skanky work!
I would just get some white coveralls from here www.automotiveworkwear.com and convert them, then dye it make sure to get 100% cotton or it might not hold the dye.
Those look like army coveralls in which case you cannot get the dye out no matter what, even after you bleach it 10 times its still bright green.
I bought the redkap suit... only without realizing, I bought the 65/30 poly cotton. D'oh! No matter how much I soak this thing in bleach and water it will not fade! What's the deal?!?!? Anyone know a better method to fade a charcoal grey poly/cotton blend jumpsuit? Will RIT color remover do a better job, or am I hosed?
You cant bleach poly because its like plastic, I think you can dye it once from wihte and thats it.
Shinobi, I bought the 100% cotton Red Kapp...Even they won't bleach easy. I've used 3 gallons of bleach and about 20 packets of Rid color remover and it barely knocked it down the color halfway to my goal. I had to stop bleaching it because it is destroying the fabric.Shinobi_Fett said:
Don't bleach down - dye up. Get white (100% cotton) and dye it the color you want.
You'll never get the colour to come out of army surplus coveralls, they're made to be as tough and as colour resistant as possible! Trust me on this, I tried something similar a few years ago.
I would recommend bobamakers flightsuits. They are accurate and made to your measurements so you can be sure it'll fit. I'll send you a pm with his web-address as it's against the rules to post here (somebody please correct me if I'm wrong)
You can get grey overalls/etc... from from most good safety wear shops.
With your sewing skills you could easily adapt and modify it .. best to buy two though
What do you think of this overall for a ESB jumpsiut, im just looking at all possibilities at the mo...mite post some more when i find them ,just want your feedback really. ( inkow i always do, so sorry....but im really v crap at knowing what to do......)
another obe i have found
Overall they look good. You should use the short sleeved jumpsuit as your base, then sew a second long sleeve inside/under the short sleve. If you look at Boba's jumpsuit it has two sets of sleeves, one long and one short. Also get a thread puller (I think thats what they are called), to cut the thread and remove the chest and butt pockets.
I have seen www.automotiveworkwear.com . But they dun seem to ship to Singapore. Wonder if anyone could help me get them and ship them over??
Hi, where do you live?? They post to the US im sure if you cantacted them for a quote they will respond.
i got one from JC Penny's (http://www3.jcpenney.com/jcp/Product...376E&cmPosID=1)
It's 65/35 and it took the rit in one shot. I bought the white set and used black rit in the bottle and it turned out a nice grey (not screen accurate, but good enough for me).
When I got it, it was as white as the box it's on.
Wow, very good!!!, i did get a pair of very white 60/ 40 overalls, but they are well to big, im only a 36 chest (and even for a woman thats well small!!!)
Im getting the blueish overalls above from ebay, they seem to be pretty good, and they are cheaper than all the others ive found on the net.
But anyway...good job!!! im very impressed!!!

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Sorry, 2000 rpm is 80% of full revs.
With the huge hassle of having to re-build the motor (I did it once, top end, on the Volvo MD17C), I would throttle it back to a constant rev where it did not overheat and leave it at that.
If you have reasonable starting, and mid-range power, I would not touch it. Throttle the older motor back until it is at ease with it, and stay there.
Although 86 % of full load sounds OK for a newer motor, I would not rev the old Volvo to more than 2000 rpm for any length of time. It will take flat out for a wee while, but I don't push it, and that is with the top end rebored and valves re-cut, and collant jackets de-scaled.
With all the symptoms you have posted over the last month, you may very well be at that rebuild vs. new question. Unless you are an experienced diesel mechanic, I wouldn't recommend trying to rebuild it youself. When I had mine rebuilt this summer, the parts were about three times the labor cost, and did not include a new crank crank ($900) or connecting rods.
For the record a re-manufactured engine from Mack boring is about $5200 + freight & installation; I believe a new engine is north of $10,000. Any Yamnar dealer can give you a quote on both options.
If you want more detail contact me thru the IP homeport site
Jim Campbell
To address the overheating issue of the original poster, is it possible the water pump drive belt is slipping?
It would make sense that as the rpm's built up there would be more strain on the belt as the impeller moved more water. If the belt tension was a little light, it could slip while turning at higher rpm's and grip again with less strain.
I run my 3GM30F at 2800-3000 rpms. It starts to smoke a little after that and I'm nearing hull speed anyway.
I have the 3gm30 and am getting black sooty smoke after 2400 rpm. new exaust elbow, filters, replaced injectors. adjusted the valves and still the same.
Compression test #1-500psi #2-400 and #3 is 410. was told that a new 3gm30 wont get over 460psi so either its something else or the gague is wrong. So if the gague is off it's about 8% off so that brings down my loest psi to the 360 ish range and I see a problem..
Question? Time for a rebuild? if so who? or can this be done with a book and a rebuild kit, or should I upbrade to the yanmar replacement what ever that is. Many thanks for the help
Great first post! Between you, Melrna, Camaraderie, and others, this is turning into a great checklist for the Yamar 3GM30F.
Your point about replicating the overheat is a good one. Sometimes it is just anomolous. But it's probably good to run through the checklist anyway.
My first post here - wonderful site! Have the same engine in my parent's 1992 Freedom 38 (since dad payed for engineering school, I've been designated "chief mechanic")
Lots of good suggestions so far, especially about underloading the engine. These little beasties are made to run & run hard. I've got a small diesel tractor that I often run at max rpm - in several hundred hours of use, it has never missed a beat.
A few added comments/suggestions:
1 - Proper antifreeze level? any evidence of leaks?
2 -Can you replicate the problem? We had an experience where we overheated for no apparent reason, we suspect that we had sucked some seaweed towards the strainer & when we shut her down, it dropped away. Problem self resolved. Make sure you have an actual overheat issue & you're not chasing your tail.
3 - I heartily recommend adding an actual temperature gauge if you don't already have one. We cruise at 2,9000 to 3,1000 RPM ~6 knots. Temp is the same as if we were running at 2,000 RPM. If we push her to max throttle 3,500 rpm (woods hole against the current for example) the temp will run up 10-20 degrees.
4 - regarding the "over prop" issue - what is the max RPM you can get the engine to turn under power? As others have mentioned, should be w/i 10% of 3,600 rpm. If you can't get to rated rpm, don't immediately blame the prop, we've had an issue with a bent shaft/strut (hung up on empty mooring next to ours during storm) "robbing" power.
Hope this helps.
|Bill Mc
|I have the PSS shaft seal, so no bind there. I will however replace the thermistat. I think that this is a great idea, low cost and so obviosly overlooked I will keep ya'll posted. But, do to work I'll not get out to the boat for a while.
I think you're okay -- you've only had the boat for a short while and can't have put many hours on that rebuilt engine yet. As a matter of fact, depending on how complete the re-build was, you're probably supposed to break it in a bit at lower revs.
But in the future rather than puttering along at 1500, go ahead and push the engine harder when you're using it. Something in the 2600-3100 range is probably about right for this engine. As far as I know, ALL the mechanics/experts agree this is better for the engine in the long run. You'll also get better charging from the alternator to your batteries.
Our philosophy is that if we have to motor, we may as well do it at flank speed -- get there sooner with a better charge to the batteries. But upon arrival, we do throttle back and cool the engine down for a few minutes before killing it completely. Usually the time it takes to drop anchor or secure the mooring pennant is about right.
Another 3GM30F Question
I, too, have a 3GM30F - a 1992 that was rebuilt in 2005. I bought the boat this summer and there was zero hours on the engine since rebuild. She starts every time and runs well but I did not realize you shouldn't run the engine at low RPMs.. most of the time I am in no rush to get off the water (as you can imagine) so I will hand the tiller to a friend, and put the rpms around 1500 while I go about getting sails down and covers on.. I kind of enjoy a nice slow putter..
However, it sounds like I should not do this? It isn't used too much - maybe an hour or two a week, tops. I know that when I get up towards the 3k RPM range I get pronounced smoking (white) out the exhaust but I have never left it that high long enough to see if it clears up when the engine warms up.. likely this is just moisture/steam, or suggestion of more troubling problems?
Thanks in advance, sorry to hijack the thread.

The rescue that Mom works for Full Moon Farm is taking in wolf/dogs who's home's was destroyed by hurricane Ike. Please help if you can and say a prayer for them and their safe journey to Full Moon Farm.
Below is a message from Nancy Brown owner and President of Full Moon Farm.
Hurricane Ike devastated Orange/Bridge City, Texas, home to friends of mine, and supporters of FMF.
Jerry and Donna Mills evacuated with their 11 wolfdogs yesterday, to a safe place. The goats and dog dogs were relocated when Gustav came in, almost 2 weeks ago, to Animal Haven Of Texas.
The Mills homestead is underwater, and they have lost everything except what they took when they left yesterday, which was clothes for a couple of days, irreplaceable papers, and the dogs.
Full Moon Farm and myself value the friendship of Jerry and Donna, and consider them part of our "Pack". Since they are currently homeless, they will be travelling from TX to Black Mountain, leaving tomorrow, hauling a trailer with the 11 wolfdogs crated on it.
I am asking for safe travel prayers and for donations to help the Mills family through this tough time. 11 animals will add to our feed bill, and we have to buy posts for the containment. (Enough fencing is already on the ground for our RE-building of smaller, older pens.)
There are several options to send your donations.
Please: Mail a check to Full Moon Farm, Inc., P.O. Box 1374, Black Mountain, NC 28711-1374, or go to www.fullmoonfarm. org and click on the PayPal or Donations link. A 501 (c) (3) tax exempt organization.
FLA (Florida Lupine Association, of which FMF and Jerry Mills are members of), will accept hurricane donations, mark Jerry Mills. Anyone who could like to send any financial support, no matter the amount, and doesn't want to deal with PayPal, can send a check -- write Jerry Mills on the memo line -- to Florida Lupine Association at P.O. Box 1765, DeFuniak Springs FL 32465. FLA is a not-for-profit organization -- 501 (c3) and any and all donations are tax deducible. www.floridalupine. org
Thank you all so much for your support.
Hope to see you at the Silent Auction on the 25th, or at the last Howl-In of the season on October 11th.
Hugz and Howlz,
Hello Friends,
A beautiful Bi eyed Female Husky has been found in the Naples FL in the Estates area Here is the email Mom got.
We received a call today about this dog…unknown husky or WD…obviously, she's husky. Very pretty girl…I'm trying to find the owners. The off-duty deputies that found her were going to have to tie her out as their dog does not get along with other dogs (and DAS did not come out as requested) so she is very temporarily in my rehab crate while I try to find her owners. She doesn't look in bad shape and was hanging around G's eating there. No one had come looking for her. I'm not sure if she was maybe a victim of the fires? Huskies can travel far, so she could have come quite a distance. If anyone can help to find her owners or foster or adopt (if owners do not appear) it would be greatly appreciated. She is a sweet girl but would need an experienced home (no little kids moving fast - other dogs unknown yet). Sibe rescue is full but they are being contacted with this email and will help to cross post her. There are two other sibes here in DAS (I was told) if anyone knows another rescuer or group that might have room for one or two… we all seem to have the same problem. Please feel free to share this email. The dog is being called Crystal for the moment (for the song by Crystal Gale "make my brown eyes blue"). Blessings, dd
Here is the link to her pictures Please feel free to cross post

text: Hey guys. I was given an assignment at school today to make a bridge using nothing but pasta and glue. It needs to be 20 inches long at least and will be tested to support anywhere from 1/2 to 11 bricks. The only rules are to only use pasta and glue, and we can't use ramen noodle bricks. So, any architects on the boards? I know that I should incorporate a lot of triangles to distribute weight. But what glue should I use? I plan on using fettuccine and lasagna any maybe linguine for the pasta. maybe some macaroni too. Any suggestions?

The Second Jungle Book is a sequel to The Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling. First published in 1895, it features five stories about Mowgli and three unrelated stories, all but one set in India, most of which Kipling wrote while living in Vermont. All of the stories were previously published in magazines in 1894-5, often under different titles. The book is less well-known than the original.
I just finished reading the wonderful JUNGLE BOOKS by RUDYARD KIPLING to my sons. They are a perennial favorite of mine (as is KIM). However, I couldn't recommend them for reading to children without pointing out that the language can be quite difficult. This is mostly because of all the setting specific diction. Kipling's familiarity with India led him to heavily spice his tales with local terminology, place names, and concepts. Add to this the sometimes antiquated diction of the late 1800's… (più)
