Wayne Law welcomes Rita Gordon as director of business affairs
DETROIT (Aug. 1, 2011) – Wayne State University Law School is pleased to announce that Rita Gordon joined the staff as director of the Law School's Business Affairs Office. Her responsibilities include financial and budgetary management, development of strategic plans and general administration.
"We are pleased to welcome Rita Gordon to the Law School," said Wayne Law Dean Robert M. Ackerman. "The Business Affairs Office plays an essential role in the successful day-to-day operations of Wayne Law. I have no doubt that Rita's knowledge and experience will help increase efficiency and effectiveness so that we can better serve our students, faculty, staff, alumni and community."
Gordon brings to the Law School more than two decades of experience in business administration and finance. She most recently served as director of auxiliary services at the University of North Carolina Wilmington (UNCW) where she was responsible for providing vision, profit and expense oversight, policy development and creative marketing direction for a wide variety of distinct retail and support business units. Her major accomplishments included implementing a community service initiative, securing the first electric campus vehicles, receiving the Loyal E. Horton Award for a sustainable dining event, and entering a partnership with the NC 10 Percent Campaign to purchase a minimum of 10 percent of the campus's produce and meats from North Carolina farmers.
Previous to her appointment at UNCW, Gordon served as business director of auxiliary services at Northern Michigan University.
"I am excited to join the Wayne State University Law School team and look forward to supporting the vision Dean Ackerman and the faculty have conceived for Wayne Law," Gordon said.
Gordon recently authored "Making Auxiliary Services Team Building Sizzle!" for NACAS College Services and is a subject matter expert to regional media on sustainability, culinary and farm-to-fork topics. She is an active member of the National Association of College Auxiliary Services, the National Association of College and University Business Officers, and the National Association of College and University Food Services.

Limner: the stick that moved on its own
A work just published in the third issue of Limner – a critical journal of illustration by Studio Operative, designed by Traven T. Croves. More on the issue's theme below. This pieces reprises a title 'the stick that moved on its own' (used in a previous work) because I'm not yet done with its connotations.
The phrase is excerpted from 'Woodland Animals', a book for young children published by Golden Pleasure Books in 1967. The copy I have was found in a cupboard in a cottage on the coast of County Down, Northern Ireland. The tales of a young hare, beautifully illustrated by Paul Durand, are suffused with account of the substance of the wood from a small mammal's perspective.
The negotiation of damp moss, scaffolded twigs at close quarters gives a claustrophobic, thingly aspect to the narrative and it is this I wanted as a spur. A point at which a topological mumbling and stammering (hence the twice-attempted spread compositions) supercedes the linear text. Didn't the Faraway Tree 'wisha-wisha' something similar?
The other core ingredient has been to account for an adolescent life spent on the belt of pastoral and municipal. So the object-palette is out-of-town retail – prodded, lashed to satisfy a shaky, tender, herbarial urge. Service scree.
Loathe to offer a viewpoint on critical illustration, so proximate to contributing a piece of work.
I will say, though, that an altered or developed discourse can only occur if the form is altered – not by talking in a new way about the same thing. This includes the form of the writing, which after all orbits a discipline whose kinship to text is rooted more in the fictional, the speculative.
The slotting, lamination, splicing, superimposition, counterpoint of written and imaged in a one-plus-one-equals-good-one complicity asks the words to muck in on a renewal of form. So it good, for example, to see Dr. Malte Oppermann and Rosie Eveleighs' piece on the imaging of electrons.
Alice Lindsay, Peter Willis and Miriam Elgon are on their third issue and each one is edging further towards a reflexive form and argument.

The Sonia Delaunay drawings are taken from a curious 1978 book subtited 'Dessins: noirs et blancs' and pubished by Jacques Damase and 'Artcurial' of Paris.
The Susan Bosence samples were photographed during a visit to the Crafts Study Centre in Farnham, with a group of eleven friends squeezed in. I emailed (the generous and welcoming) curator Jean Vacher ahead of the day, to ask for a viewing of elements of the collection, such as Barron & Larchers' sample books and Lucie Rie pots.
It was wonderful of course, to feel the hand-weight of Rie's (and Hans Coper's) vessels, as well as to leaf through the aptly named 'elephant' volumes of B & L's samples.
But the revelation was Susan Bosence's sample catalogue. Difficult here to represent the bleeds against the pin-sharp edges but the technical descriptions give some idea of the painstaking skill required to arrive at such acuteness, nuance. I had been reading 'Hand Block Printing and Resist Dyeing' (1985) but not had the sense outside of the mentorship of Phyliss Barron, of what she was achieving discreetly.

Ups and downs of sea level projections
By Stefan Rahmstorf and Martin Vermeer
The scientific sea level discussion has moved a long way since the last IPCC report was published in 2007 (see our post back then). The Copenhagen Synthesis Report recently concluded that "The updated estimates of the future global mean sea level rise are about double the IPCC projections from 2007″. New Scientist last month ran a nice article on the state of the science, very much in the same vein. But now Mark Siddall, Thomas Stocker and Peter Clark have countered this trend in an article in Nature Geoscience, projecting a global rise of only 7 to 82 cm from 2000 to the end of this century.
Coastal erosion: Like the Dominican Republic, many island nations are
particularly vulnerable to sea level rise. (Photo: S.R.)
Semi-empirical sea level models
Siddall et al. use a semi-empirical approach similar to the one Stefan proposed in Science in 2007 (let's call that R07) and to Grinsted et al. (2009), which we discussed here. What are the similarities and where do the differences come from?
For short time scales and small temperature changes everything becomes linear and the two new approaches are mathematically equivalent to R07 (see footnote 1). They can all be described by the simple equation:
dS/dt = a ΔT(t) + b (Eq 1)
dS/dt is the rate of change of sea level S, ΔT is the warming above some baseline temperature, and a and b are constants. The baseline temperature can be chosen arbitrarily since any constant temperature offset can be absorbed into b. This becomes clear with an example: Assume you want to compute sea level rise from 1900-2000, using as input a temperature time series like the global GISS data. A clever choice of baseline temperature would then be the temperature around 1900 (averaged over 20 years or so, we're not interested in weather variability here). Then you can integrate the equation from 1900 to 2000 to get sea level relative to 1900:
S(t) = a ∫ΔT(t') dt' + b t (Eq 2)
There are two contributions to 20th C sea level rise: one from the warming in the 20th Century (let's call this the "new rise"), and a sea level rise that results from any climate changes prior to 1900, at a rate b that was already present in 1900 (let's call this the "old rise"). This rate is constant for 1900-2000 since the response time scale of sea level is implicitly assumed to be very long in Eq. 1. A simple matlab/octave code is provided below (2).
If you're only interested in the total rise for 1900-2000, the temperature integral over the GISS data set is 25 ºC years, which is just another way of saying that the mean temperature of the 20th Century was 0.25 ºC above the 1900 baseline. The sea level rise over the 20th Century is thus:
S(1900-2000) = 25 a + 100 b (Eq. 3)
Compared to Eq. 1, both new studies introduce an element of non-linearity. In the approach of Grinsted et al, sea level rise may flatten off (as compared to what Eq 1 gives) already on time scales of a century, since they look at a single equilibration time scale τ for sea level with estimates ranging from 200 years to 1200 years. It is a valid idea that part of sea level rise responds on such time scales, but this is unlikely to be the full story given the long response time of big ice sheets.

Of tempests, barren ground and a thousand furlongs of sea
Guest commentary by Ron Miller, NASA GISS
Several studies have shown that hurricane activity is generally reduced during years when there is a thick aerosol haze over the subtropical Atlantic. The haze is comprised mainly of soil particles, stripped by wind erosion from the barren ground over the Sahara and Sahel. These particles are lifted into the atmosphere and carried by the Trade winds as far as the Caribbean and Amazon basin. Plumes of dust streaming off the African coast are easily recognized in satellite imagery, and were even described by Charles Darwin during his voyage on the Beagle.
The amount of dust crossing the Atlantic has been measured at Barbados since the mid 1960s (aptly by Prospero and colleagues). These measurements show a threefold increase in dust between the original part of the record and the mid 1980s at the peak of the Sahel drought, when the region was unusually vulnerable to wind erosion. African dust crosses the tropical Atlantic within the Saharan Air Layer (SAL), an elevated duct of air between about 2 and 5 km in altitude. Because of its continental origin, this air is not only dusty but extremely dry.
Figure 2: Monthly mean dust concentration measured at Barbados. Arrows mark years with large El Niño events, which are irrelevant here (Prospero and Lamb, 2003).
There is an observed anti-correlation between dustiness and tropical cyclone days in the Atlantic (Evan et al, 2006). This anti-correlation might indicate the a direct influence of dust on hurricanes, or a connection between the dry air the dust resides in and hurricanes, or might even be related to a much larger scale pattern which controls both hurricanes and dustiness. If there is a connection, one hypothesis is that entrainment of dry SAL air rapidly strangles a developing cyclone because of the low humidity that accompanies the dusty air, while the dust itself has no direct effect. An alternative hypothesis is that the reduction in sunlight beneath the dust layer cools the ocean surface, whose temperature is a well-known predictor of hurricane activity (at least at the basin scale). Thus it is plausible that decadal variations in dustiness could contribute to decadal variations in hurricane activity, but how big might such an effect be?
A recent article in Science by Evan et al. (2009) is one of the few attempts to quantify the contribution of both dust and volcanic aerosols to the observed warming within the tropical Atlantic. The authors infer the amount of total aerosol using the Advanced Very High-Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) satellite instrument and screen for locations where dust is present (they note that other aerosols might be mixed with the dust, but neglect this overlap). They also assume that dust has no effect where there are clouds. However, where the SAL extends over low marine clouds, the dust (since it is darker than cloud) might have an opposing effect to that seen in clear sky regions, although this is hard to quantify. They then calculate the contribution by dust and volcanic aerosols to observed changes in sea surface temperature (SST) during the satellite record between 1982 and 2007. During this period, the aerosol amount varied with dust export from Africa, but also from major eruptions by two volcanoes (El Chichon in 1982 and Pinatubo in 1991), each of which left a reflective layer of sulfate droplets in the lower stratosphere for a couple of years.
Evan et al. calculate that between 1982 and 2007 the ocean surface warmed by 0.25°C/decade in the main region of Atlantic hurricane genesis (15-65°W and 0-30°N). For comparison, they calculate a warming trend of 0.18°C/decade due to a reduction of dust and volcanic aerosols. That decreasing aerosols account for two-thirds of the observed warming might suggest that other factors like the increase in greenhouse gas concentrations (combined with anthropogenic aerosol changes) made a relatively modest net contribution to the warming (and by implication to observed trends in hurricane activity). For the natural aerosols, they calculate that stratospheric aerosols made roughly twice the contribution of dust over this period.

It was just another day in Afghanistan, people went about their daily business farming or tending a shop or going for a walk. The diplomats and "experts" were some place discussing the future of their nation, but to the ordinary Afghan, it was simply another Thursday. A group boarded buses in Kabul and headed for their homes in distant cities. Some place along the route the two bus loads of people were halted by the Taliban and 50 were taken from the buses and killed. Some reports indicate six were beheaded, and, for some reason, a few were not harmed. Meanwhile, hundred of miles away, Pakistani jets swooped down and bombed a village in their northwest region. Pakistani military sources claim the strike killed twenty-seven Taliban militants. Local villagers claim they pulled 22 civilians from the rubble.
Yes, it was just another day on the unquiet Eastern Front.

Goecks' First Game Gem Helps Green Bay Earn Split
By: Andrew Gavin (@GBGavin)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) - Junior Allison Goecks (Beloit, Wis.) took a no-hitter into the final inning of game one, sparking a 4-1 win over Butler as Green Bay (14-17, 3-5 HL) split a Horizon League doubleheader with the visiting Bulldogs on Saturday afternoon at Ben Garot Field. Butler won a back and forth nightcap in 10 innings, downing the Phoenix 9-7.
In the two contests, senior Amanda Omahen (San Diego, Calif.) went 5-for-6 from the plate, including 4-for-4 in the second game, drove in four runs and scored three times.
The two teams will conclude the three-game series on Sunday at Garot Field with first pitch slated for 12 p.m.
Game 1:
Green Bay 4, Butler 1
In support of Goecks' strong pitching on the mound, Green Bay's offense jumped out early on the Bulldogs with three runs in the second frame. Stacey Butts (Greenfield, Wis.) opened the inning with a walk but still stood at first after a pair of outs. After a hit by pitch put two runners on, Omahen tripled to right center field to give the Phoenix a 2-0 lead. Senior Amanda Pozolinski (Appleton, Wis.) followed by driving a double off the wall for a 3-0 edge.
Junior Danielle Peerenboom (Appleton, Wis.) added a run to the Phoenix line with a solo home run to center field. The homer was Peerenbom's first of her junior campaign.
Goecks took it from there, cruising on the mound through the first six innings. Heading into the seventh frame, the junior had retired the last nine Bulldog hitters in order.
After retiring the first batter in the seventh on a flyout, Goecks finally allowed her first hit on a bloop single by Butler's Mallory Winters. The Bulldogs would tack on a run to spoil the shutout before the Green Bay defense ended the game with a double play.
In the complete game, Goecks allowed two hits and one run while striking out seven and walking four to improve to 5-5 on the season.
Game 2: Butler
9, Green Bay 8 (10)
Butler jumped out early in the second game of the twinbill, scoring four runs off Goecks in the opening inning. Ashley Nannemann (Burlington, Wis.) entered in relief and began to quiet the Bulldog bats with four scoreless frames.
Nannemann's effort helped the Phoenix rally, beginning with two runs in its half of the first inning. Alli Rivera (Geneseo, Ill.) had the first of her three hits in the game with an RBI single while Shannon Butts drew a bases-loaded walk.
The Phoenix tied the game in the fourth inning when Rivera laced a two run double into the gap in right-center field, scoring both Omahen and Peerenboom. Rivera was 3-for-5 in the game with three RBI.
In the bottom of the fifth inning, Green Bay made it seven unanswered runs with a three-run frame. Paige Newtols (Green Bay, Wis.) singled in the first run for the lead before Omahen ripped a two-run single to left field for a 7-4 lead.
The Phoenix lead was still 7-5 entering the top of the seventh with Green Bay looking to complete the doubleheader sweep. However, two walks, a single and a hit by pitch allowed a Butler run to cross the plate before an out had been recorded. After a fielder's choice groundout put an out on the board, Butler's Callie Dennison blooped a ball behind second base. Omahen made a diving grab for the out, but Krista Hakola tagged up and scored just in front of the throw to tie the score and send the teams to extra innings.
Green Bay loaded the bases with no outs in the bottom of the eighth, but a strikeout and a lineout double play ended the threat. Neither team scored in the ninth, setting the stage for an exciting 10th inning.
In the top of the inning, Butler's Lauren McNulty drilled her second solo home run of the game with one out to break the tie, and the Bulldogs added what proved to be an important insurance run. In the bottom of the frame, Omahen's fourth hit preceded a hit by Peerenboom. After a Rivera was hit by a pitch with two outs, freshman Miranda Spangberg (Wausau, Wis.) worked bases-loaded walk to cut the deficit to 9-8. However, Miranda Reinke's (Milwaukee, Wis.) hard-hit fielder's choice to third ended the threat.
Goecks (5-6) took the loss, starting the contest and coming on in relief in the eighth inning. Nannemann worked seven innings and allowed three runs on 10 hits while striking out four.
The two teams will conclude the three-game series on Sunday with a contest at 12 p.m.

Dont Waste Your Time Or $$$ at Extreme Outdoor Hunting club Marble Hill
Me and several friends of mine have been to two of these 3D Shoots in Marble Hill, MO 63764. The first time we were surprised by the high cost of the entry and that there were no cash prizes or trophies. We were told that the reason for this was because they were going to give away two new bows and a hunting blind a several other prizes at the end of the shoots. When you pay for your entry you get a raffle ticket and then it is placed in a bucket if you placed first second or third place more tickets supposedly were placed in the bucket in your name.
The second time we went we said that we would not be back because the targets were old and placed in bad locations. I like a challenge but this was ridiculous.
Well I checked the 3D Shoots web site for shoots in the area and there was one listed for Marble Hill Extreme Outdoor Hunting club for Sunday May 15, 2011. So I went against my better judgment, because I like to shoot and it was my son's birthday I decided to go back for the third time. A friend, my 7 year old son & I drove 150 miles on Sunday morning to go to this 3D shoot and they were not open. We asked some people at some houses in the area and they told us that they thought it was done for the year. We called the number listed on the shoot information several times and no answer. We asked were Joe Burton the person in charge listed on the 3D Shoots web site lived and we went to his house. There were two vehicles in the drive way and no answer. We then asked his neighbor about his archery shop and the 3D Shoot and they told us that they have had several people stop asking about him the shop and the shoot. Some were stating that they had guns that were almost paid for and that they wanted to pick them up and the store was closed and he would not answer the phone. We went into town and looked into the window of the archery shop and everything is gone.
If you have any complaints on this please leave me your information and I will be compiling reports for the attorney general and the Bollinger County prosecuting attorneys office.

How about WHEN the Republicans controlled Congress and the White House under Bush Jr and what the result of that was? The complete destruction of the US economy. All that destruction can't be fixed overnight my friend. WHY would anybody give them the keys again!
The Economic disaster started when Janet Reno declared Microsoft a monopoly: and even-though little changed to Microsoft's function and foothold on the tech sector, DOUBT was born in the Tech Sector's ability to drive the US and the world's economy into the 21st century.
Perhaps a correlation between the most legislation passed in two years and executive orders to the largest slowdown in history?
it is the government's role to pull us out of depression.
It won't end until money sitting in the bank accounts of the rich is moved into the productive economy.
Quote it is the government's role to pull us out of depression. really? i missed that in my class on the enumerated powers of the fed. and....when has it ever worked? since the government must take, to spend, it's like pulling water out of the deep end of the pool, dumping it in the shallow end, and watching for the water to rise....
included in this admins definition of rich, is the majority of small businesses. on what should they, or anyone with money, spend their money? people invest when there is something worth the investment. the "rich" don't make money sitting on money, but they don't lose it either when they hold on for a growth environment. as long as regulation and mandates from on high make for a bad business environment, they will not spend. since they create the majority of the opportunity for all, the fastest way to get them to invest is to get rid of the environment that is stopping them.
It is an implied power of the welfare clause.
First, it is not true that the majority of small businesses make more than $250k per year.
Or... the government can raise taxes on the rich and spend the money on infrastructure, education, health, etc. The things that make growth possible. Somehow the money has to move from the savings accounts of the rich into the economy. They can invest it or the government can tax it. And THAT is the fastest way to get that money spent.
really? i missed that in my class on the enumerated powers of the fed.
+1 what Frameshift said. I agree with Frames logic here, but it's not the corporations sitting on the Trillions of dollars, it's the top 1% of private citizens. The richest corporation in the world is Apple and it only has 100 billion in cash; far shy of trillions. The problem is we can't pry any $$$ from the 1%ers and they won't invest it in the economy. I think it's what is called greed :(
Greed or not it's there money. They earned it. WHY DO THINK YOU DERSERVE ANY OF IT. :?
Really? They didn't get it the old fashioned way, by stealing it? The bankers who got rich off bonuses from TARP money....
The executive at the Health Insurance companies didn't earn it.... their companies don't dispense any medicine, give any shots, perform any heart surgeries, or take any blood pressure measurements. All they do is take your money and then give SOME of it back
At least Obamacare requires that they give 80% of it back.
Unfortunately, there is no way government can police every boss at every company to be sure that they really do earn their money
But what government can and must do is redistribute some of that money to build the infrastructure, schools, and heath care systems that serve all of society. Without that, we fail to be an equal opportunity society. And if society does not provide equal opportunity for hard working people to get ahead, it serves no purpose at all.

For making your own Mag Oil
I used this for making my own magnesium oil to put on at night to help me sleep. Just heat up equal parts water to the flakes and transfer to a clean, empty spray bottle. I made my first batch with 1 cup water and 1 cup flakes and I'm barely halfway through it almost a month later. At this rate, this jar of flakes will last YEARS. Great way to get your magnesium levels up and help you get to sleep! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

I've made magnesium oil from this and it works great. After the morning shower I cover myself with it. I also have ground up the flakes (coffee grinder) and take 1/4 teaspoon mixed with water at night for about 300 mgs of elemental magnesium. I also take 150mgs of Mag Citrate in the morn, and 200 mgs of Mag Malate in the afternoon. I feel good and from what I've read, 1000 mgs/day is about right for most people. Great value!

I use this one to make my own magnesium oil (80g magnesium flakes + 50g filtered, warm water). Pure magnesium oil is probably much better in quality and purity. But the homemae one still works. I get so sleepy after applying it to my legs. It gets a bit itchy, but that is just the chloride. I wash the residue off my skin after 20 minutes. Great value! It is from the Ancient Zechstein Seabed, so probably not that many impurities=)

I have been taking magnesium chloride pills for quite som time with satisfying results. I wanted to try a cheaper way of getting Magnesium. This was it ! I use it for deodorant inside a water solution trans-dermal,and I use small quantities in food when I want to add nutritious value or a bitter taste. Highly recommended.

Obviously this is not a product for internal consumption, but that said, it lends itself well to every external application I've tried so far. It's a great value, too. If you are using it for foot baths or hair rinses, it will last you a long, long time. The only reason it doesn't get 5 stars is that there are no instructions as to how much to use for any given application; for example, although it suggests you should use it for hair, it doesn't say, "dissolve 2 tablespoons in 2 liters of water" or anything like that. It took quite a bit of internet research to come up with that formula.

If Arsène Wenger has got his calculations right, Arsenal will arrive at the Riverside on Saturday with a better chance of taking the points than they did a year ago.
Last December, the Frenchman's team concluded an arduous run of four away games in 12 days on Teesside and duly lost 2-1. Arsenal's preparations for this weekend's corresponding fixture have also been hampered thanks to a midweek trip to Portugal and a lunchtime kick-off at Middlesbrough. That's why Wenger has taken the necessary precautions to keep his team's title challenge on track.
"It is a difficult schedule but that is why I made the decision to get everybody in the best possible shape for the game on Saturday," explained Wenger, who left a number of first-team regulars back in London.
"We had to prioritise and we were in the situation where we could prioritise one of the games. That shows that we do not think the Premier League is over and we think, more than ever, that we can come back in the Premier League. That is why I made that choice."
The decision to bring forward Saturday's kick-off time for television purposes doesn't help Arsenal at all. However, Wenger has no intention of challenging such decisions - so long as all teams are treated equally.
"No, I don't have any control [over the scheduling of games]," said the Frenchman. "I would not like control because why should I have that privilege but not Man United or Chelsea or Liverpool or Aston Villa or I don't know who?
"We just hope that it is fair. The coincidence this year is that it was a bit harder for us than for everybody else."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc. Permission to use quotations from this article is granted subject to appropriate credit being given to www.arsenal.com as the source

The auto focus is high speed and low light capable with selectable multi-zone or center-zone modes. For scenics or open-sky pictures you may need to use the landscape (infinity) focus mode.

Arsène Wenger believes new signing Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is one of the brightest talents in English football.
The teenager was among the hottest properties in the transfer market this summer and was reportedly sought after by a number of Premier League clubs before putting pen to paper on a long-term contract with Arsenal on Monday.
Wenger has a history of nurturing great potential into real Premier League pedigree and he feels Oxlade-Chamberlain is destined for big things in the future.
"We feel he will be one of the big English talents of the future," said the manager. "We want to build a strong base of local players.
"He has exceptional qualities. We were after this boy for a long time and we believe in him."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc. Permission to use quotations from this article is granted subject to appropriate credit being given to www.arsenal.com as the source

the suit looks great! i'm always happy to see more rotj bobas out there!
Awesome job.
Looking very good!! Get those boots dirty though!!
That looks great, but lets get dirty
Absolutely awesome job! Just need to weather the soft armor and get some toe spikes ... RussRep is doing a run if ya haven't jumped aboard already.
Looking real good. Gotta agree with the others .. time to weather it up !!
Man ... all these debut suits. You guys must have been busting your :moon 's to get things finished by Holloween.
Excellent ROTJ!
Looks hawt. But my immediate reaction was the same as the other guys on here. Time to go get a couple cans of spray paint. Its amazing how much adding a layer of grime can bring out the realism in a costume.
Thanks all for your approval/comments... Wanted to get it 'done' for Halloween for the troop, and go out trick or treating with the kids...
There is some weathering that came on the jumpsuit/vest from Bobamaker but probably(!?) needs a bit more. The boots probably need re-addressing (they came out more darkened than dirty after I did them per someones thread - can't remember who???). I only noticed how clean the pouches are in thiese pics (oh and the gloves - well thats most of the soft parts!!!!)
Have got the spikes on order from RussRep so is being sorted out...
How's the best way to weather soft parts? (I'll search but if anyone can point me in the right direction I'd be greatful...
Thanks again...
Looking good. Nice suit.
Looks great, get it dirty.

Following the introduction of the new concussion management guidelines for AFL matches, the AFL Medical Officers Association has produced guidelines for community football.
The guidelines are for trainers, first-aid providers, coaches, umpires, club officials and parents and should be understood and followed by all parties for the benefit and welfare of the players.
Download concussion management resources:
For community clubs
For medical practitioners
The Guidelines
In the best practice management of concussion in football, the critical element is the welfare of the player in the short and long term. These guidelines should be adhered to at all times.
Decisions regarding return to play after a concussive injury (a disturbance of brain function) should only be made by a medical officer with experience in concussive injuries.
Generally, initial decisions in this area in community football will be made by the head trainer, unless the club has a medical doctor in attendance.
Trainers should not be swayed by the opinions of players, coaching staff or others suggesting a premature return to play. Conversely, coaches must, in accordance with the AFL Coaches Code of Conduct, not put undue pressure on trainers or players to make such decisions.
A major responsibility of coaches is their duty of care towards their players and the players safety. This duty is highlighted when players receive a knock to the head and suffer a concussive injury.
The key components of management of concussion include:
For children (players aged 5-17). This is a new aspect of the 2013 guidelines.
It is critical that the basic principles of return to play decisions are followed to ensure that a concussed player is fully recovered before being allowed to do so.
All players with concussion or suspected concussion need an urgent medical assessment (with a registered medical doctor). This assessment can be provided by a medical doctor present at the venue, local general practice or hospital emergency department.
A player with suspected concussion must be withdrawn from playing or training until fully evaluated by a medical practitioner and cleared to play.
A concussed player must not be allowed to return to school, or return to training or playing before having a medical clearance.
It is important that concussion is managed correctly and that players do not return to play or training until they are fully recovered.
These concussion guidelines have been published by the AFL as a Position Statement on the Management of Concussion in Australian Football. It is based on guidelines developed by the AFL Medical Officers Association which incorporate research that has been funded by the AFL Research Board and which was undertaken by Dr Michael Makdissi, Assoc Prof Paul McCrory and Assoc Prof Gavin Davis.

Middle school students suspended for watching porn, masturbating, in class
posted at 12:47 pm on June 19, 2012 by Howard Portnoy
This is clearly not the way modern electronic technology was meant to be deployed in the classroom. NBC San Diego reports that nine male students were suspended from Bell Middle School for allegedly masturbating while watching pornography on their cell phones during English class.
The suspension occurred in May, but the district has remained close-mouthed about the incident, stating only that officials are "prohibited from commenting on confidential student or personnel matters." The efforts at stonewalling extend to the teacher, Ed Johnson, who was reportedly told about the behavior as it was happening but refused to take action.
Johnson has refused repeated requests for an interview, but the district sent an email to NBC San Diego that reads:
With respect to Mr. Johnson, all we can tell you is that he is employed by the District and remains assigned to Bell Middle School as of Friday. His schedule has not changed.
One of Johnson's students from another class was permitted by her family to appear on camera provided her face was pixilated to conceal her identity. She told reporters:
It's crazy … I don't even know … I can't even believe it.
He's my teacher but I'm in a different period, and he doesn't really do much about anything because he's not a good teacher. He always reads. That's all we do in class is read. You read with him. No, he reads and we listen.
Perhaps not surprisingly, the teachers union has Johnson's back. NBC notes that a union representative has expressed skepticism at the reports of what went down, dismissing the source of the accusations as "students in the classroom." The news website U-T San Diego has a response from the school's vice principal, Kathleen Gallagher:
As the administrator who initially investigated this incident, I would like to say for the record that I never suspend students unless the information is accurately verified. The statements submitted by students should not be discounted based on their age. The process of collecting statements and interviewing students was conducted consistent with district procedures, each one independently of every other one….
The union meanwhile has organized a petition drive on Johnson's part.

I don't consider myself too much of a "worry-wart," but I figure I've spent a lot of time into developing my website, many materials stored in my computer, and my various blogs and, even though I have a lot of confidence in the webhosts and my computer hardware, anything can happen. And given that possibility, it doesn't hurt to "play it safe."
I particularly like these services that provide automatic back-up for all my work. I don't have to even think about it, and just receive daily, or even more often, reports from them confirming that my materials have been backed-up. I'm sure that there are others, though, so please leave your suggestions in the comments section of this post.
One is Mozy, which backs-up everything on my computer. And I've barely used half of the capacity you get for a free account. And it costs peanuts to upgrade, if necessary.
For my blogs, I use Blog Backupr.
For Twitter, I use Google Reader to subscribe to the RSS feed of my Twitter account.
There's also another different kind of back-up site called BackupURL.
BackupURL lets you enter a website address and then it immediate creates a backup copy of the site with it's own url address. All the links remain live, and when I tried it with my website I was pleasantly surprised to find that it actually copied all the pages of my site and not just the one page address I had entered.
It's different from the other online back-up programs in that they will create a copy of a site that you can access and then "re-launch" if you lose all your data, and you have to register for them. Those also automatically update new addition.
BackupUrl sort of "takes a picture in time" and makes it immediately accessible. If you want to update it, you have to enter the site address again and get a new url address for that updated site.
It could definitely come in handy for me since very infrequently my website (with 9,000 categorized links accessible to English Language Learners) might go off-line temporarily. Having a back-url will be useful because students could just use that instead.
Packrati.us could be useful. It follows your Twitter feed, and then bookmarks any url address you tweet to your delicious account.
Dropbox seems to have been around for awhile, but it's new to me, and I like it a lot. You download the application, and it lets you easily move any of your computer files into it. As you make changes in the documents, it immediately and automatically registers them at Dropbox (and at any of your other computers where you installed the application) and you can access them at anytime either at the Dropbox site or at any of those other computers. Everything is always "in synch" automatically. This will be a big help to me at school, where I will now be able to access tons of the files I have at home related to different classes, and won't have to worry about flash drives — either at school or if I'm traveling with my laptop. Dropbox also lets you share any of the files publicly, too.
I suspect there are probably a number of similar apps out there (I know Dropio is good for file-sharing) , but I really like how easy it is to use Dropbox. You get 2GB of storage for free, and then have to pay after that, but that's plenty of space for me. I uploaded a ton of files — everything for all of my classes, plus everything for all the books I've written and the ones I'm working on, and I've only used 8% of the alloted space. A little more back-up of files always can bring some peace of mind, too. Mozy is great for backing-up EVERYTHING, but it's only designed to replace lost data.
Feedback, of course, is always welcome.

It's alive! Individual mandate upheld by SCOTUS (sort of)
posted at 11:24 am on June 28, 2012 by Howard Portnoy
At 10 o'clock on Thursday, June 28, the nation held its collective breath as the Supreme Court began reading its rulings for June. ObamaCare was number three on the docket, after United States v. Alvarez, which held that it is permissible for a current or former member of the armed forces to lie about receiving a medal.
At 10:08, the opinion everyone was waiting for came down. Crowds milling outside the high court and television viewers alike were told that the individual mandate had been struck down. Within minutes, that reading had been revised. A split 5-4 decision held that the individual mandate is constitutional, but as a tax. The swing vote turned out to belong to Chief Justice John Roberts, who sided with the left-leaning justices. Justice Anthony Kennedy voted with the conservative minority.
On Tuesday, Speaker John Boehner warned his House colleagues not to spike the ball if the ruling went Republicans' way. Rest assured that President Obama will do precisely that when he speaks on the ruling, which is scheduled to happen shortly. He will almost certainly praise the court—which he assailed three short months ago as an "unelected group of people" guilty of "judicial activism"—for its infinite wisdom and restraint.
His jubilation, however, may be premature—and short-lived. The line in the sand between the two factions has become etched more deeply with today's ruling, which throws up new obstacles for the administration and Democrats.
One major hurdle that the president must now contend with is his repeated insistence in 2009 that the individual mandate was not a tax. In September of that year, ABC's George Stephanopoulos put this question to Obama: "Under this mandate, the government is forcing people to spend money, fining you if you don't. How is that not a tax?" Here is a transcript of the exchange that followed:
Obama: Well, hold on a second, George. Here—here's what's happening. You and I are both paying $900, on average—our families—in higher premiums because of uncompensated care. Now what I've said is that if you can't afford health insurance, you certainly shouldn't be punished for that. That's just piling on. If, on the other hand, we're giving tax credits, we've set up an exchange, you are now part of a big pool, we've driven down the costs, we've done everything we can and you actually can afford health insurance, but you've just decided, you know what, I want to take my chances. And then you get hit by a bus and you and I have to pay for the emergency room care, that's…
Stephanopoulos: That may be, but it's still a tax increase.
Obama: No. That's not true, George. The—for us to say that you've got to take a responsibility to get health insurance is absolutely not a tax increase. What it's saying is, is that we're not going to have other people carrying your burdens for you anymore than the fact that right now everybody in America, just about, has to get auto insurance. Nobody considers that a tax increase. People say to themselves, that is a fair way to make sure that if you hit my car, that I'm not covering all the costs.
Stephanopoulos: But it may be fair, it may be good public policy…
Obama: No, but—but, George, you—you can't just make up that language and decide that that's called a tax increase. Any…
Stephanopoulos: Here's the…
Obama: What—what—if I—if I say that right now your premiums are going to be going up by 5% or 8% or 10% next year and you say well, that's not a tax increase; but, on the other hand, if I say that I don't want to have to pay for you not carrying coverage even after I give you tax credits that make it affordable, then…
Stephanopoulos: I—I don't think I'm making it up. Merriam Webster's Dictionary: Tax—"a charge, usually of money, imposed by authority on persons or property for public purposes."
Obama: George, the fact that you looked up Merriam's Dictionary, the definition of tax increase, indicates to me that you're stretching a little bit right now. Otherwise, you wouldn't have gone to the dictionary to check on the definition. I mean what…
Stephanopoulos: Well, no, but…
Obama: …what you're saying is…
Stephanopoulos: I wanted to check for myself. But your critics say it is a tax increase.
Obama: My critics say everything is a tax increase. My critics say that I'm taking over every sector of the economy. You know that. Look, we can have a legitimate debate about whether or not we're going to have an individual mandate or not, but…
Stephanopoulos: But you reject that it's a tax increase?
Obama: I absolutely reject that notion.
In addition, the court's decision was unequivocal in its finding that Congress had overstepped its authority in writing this legislation, emphasizing that the individual mandate as a non-tax vehicle was beyond the scope of the Commerce Clause. Its and Obama's overreach are sure to become a GOP talking point.
Finally, there is the matter of ObamaCare's abiding unpopularity. For nearly the duration of its existence, the law has been opposed by a majority of voters. A plurality of voters also want to see the law repealed.
Today's ruling is not likely to alter either of those sentiments. Nor will it change the perception, put forth in recent days by liberal pundits, that Obama squandered the first half of his term as president pushing for passage of the health care law when his sights should have been set on rescuing the economy.
The fight is just getting underway.

Primary source materials are original documents, photographs, artifacts, recordings, or other information created at the time of an event and by a person with direct knowledge of the event.
Note: Primary source materials are not searchable yet via the site-wide search function at the top of this page (the white box and orange SEARCH button).
To find more background information, use the site-wide search function at the top of the page (the white box and orange SEARCH button).
Background material is content written or collected by Society staff or other contemporary authors about a historical subject.
The Society holds the papers of Senator William Proxmire (1915-2005). Proxmire served for 32 years in the U.S. Senate battling to protect human rights, curb federal waste, and fight corruption.
More than 7,500 pages have been digitized from the collections and are grouped by original box and folder. Images, audio clips, and interview transcripts are also available online.
Given here are 60 typescripts, tearsheets, and other copies of articles found in Proxmire's Senate office files (Box 146, folders 11-16, of his papers at the Wisconsin Historical Society). They were written between 1957 and 1989. Not included here are rough notes, correspondence, receipts, and miscellaneous jottings filed alongside these finished articles.
These files from Proxmire's Senate office (Box 206, folders 15 and 16) contain biographical notes, clippings, press releases, and marketing pieces from the first half of his Senate career. Although most are undated and unattributed, the file contains a 7-page autobiographical statement from 1958 (pages 112-119), a 28-profile in Ralph Nader's "Citizens Look at Congress" series from 1972 (pages 6-34), "The Proxmire Record" from 1970 (120-140), and Proxmire's Senate passport (35-48).
In March 1975, Wisconsin Sen. William Proxmire sent out his first press release identifying wasteful government spending. He called these monthly bulletins 'Golden Fleece Awards' and they became a popular feature of his Senate tenure. Given here are digital copies of the Golden Fleece press releases, 1975-1987, from Sen. Proxmire's papers. In this digital version, each year opens with his summary of the 12 awards. A handful of the monthly press releases are missing and none have survived from 1984, which contains only the annual summary. The whole series is preceded by a 12-page list of all 159 awards compiled by WHS staff in 2010, and two undated compilations compiled by Sen. Proxmire's office.
The digital collection of Senator William Proxmire's papers and the oral history interviews were made possible through the generosity of Sen. Proxmire's family and friends, who contributed time, materials, and financial support to ensure that his legacy is preserved.
Between 2008 and 2011, oral historian Anita Hecht of Life History Services interviewed 39 friends, family, colleagues and former staff of Sen. William Proxmire.
Judge Cudahy chaired the Wisconsin Democratic Party during the 1960s and led Proxmire's campaigns 1964-1972.
Congressman Ron Kind interned for Proxmire in Washington, D.C. in 1984.
Economics journalist Bob Kuttner was recruited by Proxmire to be the Senate Banking Committee's chief investigator in 1975.
As a U.S. Senator elected Vice President in 1976, Mondale worked closely with Proxmire, especially on Truth in Lending legislation.
Consumer advocate Ralph Nader took on many similar causes with Proxmire, including the 1974 Equal Opportunity Credit Act.
Democrat David Obey, elected to the U.S. House of Representatives in 1969, worked closely with Proxmire throughout his career.
Douglas is the senator's and Ellen Proxmire's son, born in 1961.
Active in Wisconsin Democratic Party during the 1950s, Ellen and the senator agreed to marry at the Democratic National Convention in 1956.
Ted is the elder of two children from the senator's first marriage.
Sarbanes was elected senator from Maryland in 1976 and worked closely with Proxmire on a range of issues.

Can two computers share the same external hard drive?

Best Answer:
Yes and no. You can NOT plug one hard drive directly into 2 computers. It will only be usable by whi Yes and no. You can NOT plug one hard drive directly into 2 computers. It will only be usable by whichever computer connected to it first, the other computer will be ignored. However, if you set up the first computer as a server you can access the same drive from multiple computers. Connect the hard drive to a Mac and go to your system preferences. Under "Sharing" in the Internet and Wireless row. In the first box (Shared Folders:" click the plus at the bottom left and select the hard drive you want to share. When you have selected it, you can click on the hard drive in the System Preferences window to change your privacy settings by setting Users who can access it. If you are setting it up at home I'd set Everyone to Read & Write. On the second Mac, open a Finder window and click "Go" then "Connect to Server" then, in the window that appears, "Browse". Click on the Mac the hard drive is connected to and you should be able to access it as if the hard drive were plugged into the second Mac. It will work over Wi-Fi, but you really should have your Mac's connected by an Ethernet cable. It is MUCH faster and more reliable and the cables are very inexpensive.

Gotta love the exasperation on the unicorn ... and the DUUUUUUUUUUHHH look on the "smart" ass.
As of this posting, the men's are on AA, women's and kid's on Anvil blanks.
I love that the donkey is so proud of himself. I don't think anyone here will ever be as happy as that donky.
Yet another awesome Walmazan to add to my shirt collection... I own more of his than anyone else's.
Ohhh I'm happy to see this one made it. Donkeys get such a bad rap!
Ahhh, the things guys will do for love. How romantic.
Yay for AA. One MXL ordered. Sure hope that is what I receive. Taking a chance, only because I love this shirt. I would not have ordered it on Anvil.

I also have a few of his from GoodJoe.
The fact that Woot threw a My Little Pony reference into Walmazan's bio makes me unbelievably happy.
When it comes down to it, I think I'd rather eat the unicorn.
Just in time for St. Patrick's - Corned Unicorn!
I too, am a Walmaza-holic. I believe that of numerous woot shirts that I own, Wences dominates my designs.
Congrats on another print Walmazan!
I was hoping for this one. Clearly the invisible pink unicorn heard my prayers!
I am beyond excited that this printed.
Second print for you this week. A bit of a quiet one for you walmazan
The donkey's happiness despite the unicorn's reaction adds extra layers of meaning about self-image and reliance I really warm to. Having that depth on such a seemingly simple idea is further tribute to your vast talents. Congrats!
So cute and congrats to the designer. I love a donkey that seems to say, "Look what I can do..."
I can't wait to wear this shirt while I play with all my little ponies. I will pretend one is a donkey and tape an orange Elmer's glue cap to its head. Wee, donkey, wee. Match my shirt and go everywhere with me!
and hey why are they called unicorns instead of unihorns...it's not like they have a piece of corn sticking out of their heads...hmmm

"Uni" is Latin for "one, "corn" is Latin for "horn".
Yay! My little Coney!
Thanks so much for all your support! I so happy with this print!
The donkey is the class nerd asking out the unicorn cheerleader. She's thinking, "What do I say? I can't use the 'You don't have a cone' line again." Will they attend the prom together after all? Stay tuned.
Adorable design!
You made it!!! I'm so happy that this made it!!!:D
PLEASE have some woot shirts that are NOT gray!!!
I have wanted to buy 3 designs now (this is one) and just can't get past the slate/ash/smoke gray color of the shirt. BLEH.
I love the artwork here. The facial expressions say it all!
I love love love the style of this illustration. Please never stop designing shirts like this.
Oh, random: I had a dream last night (this morning, really) that Woot made all of their Reckoned shirts available again for like a week. It was amazing.

Dear Lucy,
I desperately need your help now. I'm asked to conduct a sample lesson on next thursday. My lesson is focused on reading and speaking. The reading text consists of problems sent to the problem page of a magazine and readers' advice. I have come up with a few ideas to lead in to this topic but none of them really satisfactory. Could you please give me some ideas as to how to introduce this topic in an interesting way (some warm up activity or some questions to arouse students' interest.). And I'd be very grateful if you could give me some suggestions about speaking activities to follow up the reading text. The three problems are about the use of mobile phones in offices, a woman of 47 wants to do things she like even though they are not suitable for her age, and a woman complain about her son's using drugs.
I have to finish my lesson plan in just one or two days. so could you please reply me as soon as possible.
Many thanks

Of course, we shouldn't take this information too seriously yet, because it may easily be some other device, but for now the sources are pretty excited about these results, and even if there's the slightest chance of them being true, this means that it's impossible for us to ignore them...

Hey, I came across this site about a year ago and it got me into thinkign I could make a set of Mando armour. Unfortunately I lost the link to the site but as luck would have it I found it again.
I have had so many ideas towards creating a set of armour and can't wait to start. Reading through the forums the community seems close, friendly and extremely helpful. Hopefully I'll make some friends and get help from some great creative minds.
I'm hoping to make a custom mando set and add my own colour scheme and little extras.
Any help/advice to a newbie would be greatly appreciated. Hopefully the community has room for one more dreamer :P
