Wayne Law's Keith Center a co-sponsor, destination service site for 2012 MLK Day of Service
DETROIT (Jan. 12, 2012) — Volunteers who want to participate in the United Way for Southeastern Michigan's 2012 MLK Day of Service can sign up at Wayne State University Law School's Damon J. Keith Center for Civil Rights at 8 a.m. on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Monday, Jan. 16. The Keith Center is one of three co-sponsors of the event who will provide breakfast and lunch to the volunteers, MLK Day of Service T-shirts, and transportation to the project sites and back to Wayne State.
"Judge Keith's entire life has been about public service," said Peter Hammer, Wayne Law professor and director of the Keith Center. "It is important that Martin Luther King Jr. Day be celebrated by efforts to give back to society and create a tradition of helping others. The Keith Center is proud to be associated with these efforts."
This year's project sites are Gleaners Community Food Bank, Sabbath Middle School in River Rogue, Belle Isle, and Walter White Elementary School in River Rouge. Buses will leave Wayne Law at 9 a.m. and return to Wayne Law at 1 p.m. for lunch.
For the first time this year, there will also be two projects taking place at the Keith Center geared toward middle and high school students.

Henry V, which dates from 1599, is the last in Shakespeare's series of plays based on English history. It is also, of course, among the Bard's best-known and most-performed works. It's given rich new life here by a full-cast presentation that combines classic literature with classical music.

"take a soldier"
A wonderful rendition. I've listened to it twice. Harry's concern for the welfare of his troops is so exactly what an army needs from its commander that it makes me sad for any nation whose troops are less valued and supported than King Harry's Englishmen. His wooing of Catherine is so charmingly done that it made me laugh. I LOVE this play!
"Good performance, marred by audio"
Well executed, except that there is something strange about the audio - there are sequences where there is a lot of ambient noise (resonance, or gunfire) which suddenly vanishes for a moment when the speaker stops talking. This is particularly marked during the 'little touch of Harry in the night' sequence. Instead of the murmuring of soldiers around campfires in the quiet before the storm, this version for some reason seems to have gunfire going more or less continuously through the night, which starts and stops as the actors start and stop speaking. At first I thought there was something wrong with my earphones, and it might be there's something idiosyncratic about my setup.
Could not find this audiobook anywhere except here on Audible.com. Great for students!
"Bad idea"
I have only red a few Shakespeares. I definately would recommend reading or going to the actual presentation. Audio listening didn't work for me. Although it could have been me, I wasn't able to keep up with the characters.
"No other options available"
A good cast- the West family out in force (as usual for audio Shakespeare) Timothy West as Narrator and Samuel West as Henry V- which he does very nicely- the scene at Portsmouth; the discovery of the conspiracy, I thought he did very well indeed.
That apart I thought it all rather a lack-lustre production- flat and uninteresting- too much medieval chanting- particually as a substitute for battle noises- which seems to me idiotic as surely the whole joy of audio is that you can produce massive effects with really no budget at all.
The comedy elements also fell down rather- one got the impression that the actors didn't understand the words or get the jokes.- but very poiniant death of Falstaff.
Criticisms aside, this is the only Henry V available, and it is unabridged and, frankly, it's not the greatest play Shakespeare ever wrote and I'm not sure that anyone could make the play a real audio success

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|I really have no clue but I think its prolly 05/06 board at the most no way its before that. Its a pretty simple design on it though...very similar to the new illusion except for the middle of the board has a wood type pattern thats like a triangle and prolly 4 inches wide and like 3 inches tall.
|Sounds like an older Eldorado?
^^Thanks^^...and I don't have the board near me (i'm at boarding school right now making up 5 credits and the board is at my house and I have already looked for about 2 hours to fix this problem but couldn't find it. I think it is prolly near the low end but the salesman said it was a solid board so I really have no clue. But I can give you a description....
The bottom is Royal blue and white and just have one K2 sign. Its simmilar to the Illusion Design except the top of the board has a small wood design in the middle. Thats pretty much it that I can think of...hope that helps.
What about the Targas for bindings? I can get a pair for a little under 200$ brand new on ebay after shipping.
EDIT: The 07/08 Targas would cost about $195 after shipping, the 07/08 Rome 390's would be like $150 tops. Which are better? And what size should I get? I have a size 10 boot so would I get small / medium bindings or large / extra large bindings?
Should I Get A New Setup? If So What Should I Get?
Hi, well I just started snowboarding last year and this is my set up right now:
Board: K2 (Don't know the exact type sorry)
Bindings: Burton Customs
Boots: Burton Moto (Size 10)
Anyway I'm thinking about getting a new / another set up this year because:
1.) This year I'm going to a boarding school in Squaw Valley (I'll be boarding daily)
2.) The boards and bindings are extremely cheap right now.
So First thing I'd like to ask is after looking at my set up now should I even be looking into getting a new setup? I'm still a beginner and right now the K2 is fine but obviously with me being able to go snowboarding daily I will get much better and don't want to be having to buy a new board for twice the price in the middle of the season so i'd rather be prepared now. Or should I just wait till the season after this up-coming season and get a board when I know I'm more experienced?
2nd Thing is should I just get a board or a board and bindings? My boots are fine right now and I see no need to replace them within a year or two. However if I do commit to buying a board should I just get a new board or should I get new bindings as well? Most of the boarders I have talked to so far say that Burton stuff breaks easy and that I should stick with Rome or T-9 bindings. So I'm wondering do they break or no? I would much rather get a new pair of bindings for half the price now and be prepared for when my burtons break than not be prepared and half to pay full price.
So Pretty much can you answer these questions:
1. Should I even be getting anything new?
2. If so should I be getting a Board, Bindings, or Both?
3. Should I just wait till next year to get a new setup when I know I'm better?
So yea I know that was a little confusing but PLEASE HELP!!!!!!

Even as Admiral Mike Mullen was telling a Pentagon press conference on Friday that he has received assurances from Pakistani military leaders there would not be any further firing on American soldiers or helicopters, the Pakistan army was firing on American forces. "I've been given assurances by the senior military leadership in Pakistan that that there is certainly no intent or plan to fire on our forces." For some reason Pakistani promises did not filter down to their troops who are stationed on the border of Afghanistan. Mullen insists both sides do communicate and draw away when each comprehends the situation, but American concerns about the growing power of the Taliban and al-Qaeda in tribal regions tend to take precedence over agreements with Pakistan.
At the core of current problems is lack of any comprehensive strategy on how to conduct the war in Afghanistan. Bush failure to maintain a high military presence in Afghanistan in 2001 and 2002 allowed the insurgency a new lease on life and since that date it has grown ever more powerful. But, American over reliance on military action is not working. No plan to deal with infrastructure needs of Afghanistan are in place nor are work projects such as rebuilding roads and bridges or bringing electricity to rural areas in place. Lack of work opportunities results in high unemployment rates at a time when the Taliban can pay decent wages to anyone who wants to fight the "occupiers."

The sexual subjection of boys in sport: towards a theoretical account
Childhood sexual abuse (CSA) is a persistent and widespread social practice (Gilbert et al., 2009) predominantly perpetrated by men. In considering the sexual abuse of male children, one is faced with a number of explanatory accounts that say little about the experiences of boys. These can broadly be divided into those that focus on the individual and those that focus on society. Thus, over the last three decades feminist perspectives have challenged individualist accounts (see Ward et al., 2006) that construct the perpetrators of CSA as somehow weak or ill and fundamentally distinct from the wider male population (Cowburn and Dominelli, 2001) whilst ignoring the gendered aspects of sexual exploitation and abuse (e.g. Kelly, 1988; Rush, 1980). According to Seymour (1998: 422) 'it is evident that the nature of gender socialization in our patriarchal society predisposes males toward child sexual abuse.'
However, both positions are problematic (Brackenridge, 2001) and according to Liddle (1993) there is a missing 'theoretical linkage' between the micro (psychology) and the macro (sociology) that frustrates a satisfactory account of this social problem. Cossins (2000) has argued for a sociological theory of CSA but still presents abuse as a pathological response to childhood trauma, albeit prompted by the demands of masculinity.

« more RISD stories
Late last month President John Maeda and a number of RISD students, faculty members and trustees
visited Maeda's former academic home at the MIT Media Lab to speak about RISD's
STEM to STEAM initiative.
Although MIT is as well known as a center for technology as RISD is known for
its leadership in art and design, what came through in the day's talks was a
sense of how art and technology are, in fact, mutually interdependent.
For Maeda, the idea that art, design, science and technology
are interrelated is nothing new. As a professor and associate director of the
Media Lab before coming to RISD, he helped shape its focus, bringing these
disciplines together in new ways.
In his talk, Maeda traced his own
converging interests in design and technology from the dawn of the personal
computer era to his
solo show last year at the Riflemaker gallery in London. He
also spoke about the pivotal people who inspired him by bringing the two
fields together– from the late Apple CEO Steve
Jobs to Media Lab co-founder Muriel
Professor Nancy Skolos, head of the Graphic Design
department at RISD, spoke about her own design process, explaining that she
draws inspiration from everyday life and daily discoveries. In collaboration
with her husband and fellow Graphic Design faculty member Tom Wedell, she takes the research and design process beyond paper or a computer
screen by experimenting with various physical materials and developing multiple
models or prototypes as research for the finished product.
Professor Andrew Raftery, RISD's Graduate Program Director in Printmaking,
also incorporates that spirit of prototyping and problem-solving into his process,
making dozens of sketches and 3D models before he begins the painstaking three-
to six-month process of engraving a copper plate for his prints. Though the
method of engraving he uses has been around for hundreds of years, Raftery looks
to present-day subject matter – including the three-ring circus of a real
estate open house – to give his prints a contemporary satirical edge.
In his own role as president,
Maeda is not only charged with leading RISD, but with thinking about RISD's
place in the world. One of the college's key policy initiatives, STEM to STEAM, aims to add
Art to the STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) mantra that has
become central to reforming education. Through speaking engagements such as this
recent one at the Media Lab, Maeda is championing the further integration
of art, design and technology as a means of promoting much-needed innovation.related links:STEM to STEAM

Hi all,
I'm new to this site but my moderator recommended it to me.
I want to know if there is anyone out there who has worked in Italian state schools teaching English?
I just finished an amazing four week course here in Tuscany with a brilliant school and got the job the day after!
The thing I'm most worried about is the red tape in Italy and not getting paid on time. One teacher I have talked to says this can be a problem. Others have said it'll be fine.
Looking for any and all advise on the matter.

Me and a buddy of mine have pooled our money together to get some decoys for field hunting Geese and Ducks. Here is list of the stuff that we have and will be getting shortly:
18 Full Body Greenhead Mallard Decoys
2 Mojo Mallards
36 Real Geese Pro Series
12 Bigfoot B2 Decoys
24 Goose shells "unknown make/model"
2 layout blinds
I was wondering from all your experience how would you set up a spread like this? i.e. Big foots around our layout blinds or the Real Geese Pro Series? If concentrating on ducks only, should we reduce the amount of geese that we put out? Stuff like that and any other tips would be great.
Thanks in advance for any help.

In a right angled triangular field, three animals are tethered to posts at the midpoint of each side. Each rope is just long enough to allow the animal to reach two adjacent vertices. Only one animal. . . .
What can you say about the angles on opposite vertices of any cyclic quadrilateral? Working on the building blocks will give you insights that may help you to explain what is special about them.
Can you make a right-angled triangle on this peg-board by joining up three points round the edge?
What is the relationship between the angle at the centre and the angles at the circumference, for angles which stand on the same arc? Can you prove it?
Four rods of equal length are hinged at their endpoints to form a rhombus. The diagonals meet at X. One edge is fixed, the opposite edge is allowed to move in the plane. Describe the locus of. . . .
How many different triangles can you make which consist of the centre point and two of the points on the edge? Can you work out each of their angles?
This gives a short summary of the properties and theorems of cyclic quadrilaterals and links to some practical examples to be found elsewhere on the site.
Jennifer Piggott and Charlie Gilderdale describe a free interactive circular geoboard environment that can lead learners to pose mathematical questions.

Both are great picks!
Tom is very nice to deal with and ships fast.
Or any feedback with "reconditioned" mags such as these?
I just ordered a couple to see how they do for giggles while I was ordering an uplula to load 'em up quick.. which also I assume is a good product.
Both are great picks!
Tom is very nice to deal with and ships fast.
Good to know.. I've never bought from them but they look like a pretty reputable company, if looks of their site and their selection mean anything.
I figure I might as well have a few extra of these 15rd mags for the cpo 226 around for giggles.
Time for a 220 stainless though! hehehe
That's a good price for re-conditioned mags. Midway has new Sig mags on sale for $30 each. That's a great deal.
I agree with JeffsSig. I've placed several orders with Tom and his staff and have never had any problems and they've always arrived promptly. You could do a lot worse than to place an order with that vendor. Highly recommended in my book.
Mags arrived along with the uplula loader.. Good vendor for sure.. Came with the president's business card. Nice touch!
The recon' mags appear to be pretty good.. Interesting, they're folded with visible welds along the back, whereas the oem mags don't show the weld, I guess buffed down to not be visible. But they fit fine, load fine, and I'm positive will probably shoot fine.
Nice to know a source for parts and barrels and accessories also.
Hooray for TGS.

At last, the Sun shines through
Page Tools
Sun Microsystems has posted a fourth-quarter profit, beating Wall Street expectations as the server and software maker said demand had stabilised after a long decline that started with the dot-com bust of 2000.
For the period ended June 30, Sun earned $US121 million ($A159.5 million), or 4 US cents per share, compared with a profit of $US783 million, or 23 US cents per share, in the second quarter of fiscal 2004. The year-ago profit included $US1.6 billion in other income from a settlement with Microsoft.
Sales slipped 4.2 per cent, to $US2.98 billion from $US3.11 billion in the same period last year.
Excluding special items, the Santa Clara-based company earned $US200 million, or 6 US cents per share, compared with a loss of $US173 million, or 5 US cents per share, last year.
On that basis, Sun's earnings beat Wall Street expectations. Analysts were expecting a profit of 1 US cent per share on sales of $US2.98 billion, according to Thomson Financial.
"It sure feels nice to make money - that always feels good," Sun chief executive Scott McNealy said on Tuesday. "We spent the last year getting in shape and succeeding on a lot of fronts, and setting the company up for a really successful '06."
For the full fiscal year, Sun lost $US11 million, or break-even on a per-share basis, compared with a loss of $US388 million, or 12 US cents per share, in fiscal 2005. Sales declined 1.1 per cent to $US11.07 billion in fiscal 2005 from $US11.19 billion in fiscal 2004.
"FY05 was a year of stabilised revenue and earnings," McNealy said. "Our opportunity for Y06 is sustained growth and profitability."
Following its usual practice, Sun did not release an earnings or sales forecast for the fiscal first quarter.
But Sun's president, Jonathan Schwartz, said the company would announce a major win with General Motors. The car maker will be deploying Sun's Java Enterprise System and Sun's Solaris 10 operating system.
Sun thrived in the late 1990s as dot-coms and other companies raced to purchase its proprietary servers and software. But a large chunk of that business disappeared after the tech crash of 2000 and never returned.
Sun's competitors, however, have largely recovered by offering systems that are based on inexpensive hardware and software such as Intel processors and the Linux operating system.
Recently, Sun appears to have stabilised though profitability hasn't been consistent. It has revamped its hardware and software, including selling servers based on AMD's Opteron chip. It has also signed a truce with arch-rival Microsoft.
And Sun has managed to maintain a sizeable stockpile of cash and marketable securities - now more than $US7.5 billion.
Last month, it announced it would spend a large portion of that cash on two acquisitions it hopes will re-ignite growth.
On June 2, Sun said it was buying Storage Technology - a maker of tape drives, network management programs and back-up software - for about $US4.1 billion. Less than a month later, Sun said it was buying SeeBeyond Technology, a maker of business-integration software, for $US387 million in cash.
The deals are not expected to close until autumn in the US.

Low-Carb Diets: Jalapeño Peppers, Vitamin C and Carb Counts

Jalapeño peppers, eaten fresh, canned or smoked, can spice up almost any dish. Smoked jalapeño peppers are called chipotle peppers. Jalapeño is just one of many types of chili peppers. Jalapeños are generally green but as they mature, turn red. Spicy foods are known to help curb appetite and thus, jalapeños may help you maintain your low-carb diet long-term.

What's more, jalapeño peppers have an extremely low glycemic load. They can be added to salads, and can be coupled with meats such as bacon-wrapped jalapeño peppers to add some variety to your diet. Jalapeños can also be added to low carb nacho recipes made with chips replaced with sliced jicama chips.

Carbohydrate and Fiber Counts for Jalapeño Peppers

¼ cup sliced jalapeño pepper: 1 gram effective (net) carbohydrate plus ½ gram fiber and 7 calories

1 medium jalapeno pepper (about ½ oz): ½ grams effective (net) carbohydrate plus ½ gram fiber and 4 calories

Glycemic Index for Jalapeño Peppers

As with most nonstarchy vegetables, there is no scientific study of the glycemic index of jalapeno peppers.

More Information about the Glycemic Index

Estimated Glycemic Load of JalapeñoPeppers

¼ cup sliced jalapeño pepper: less than 1

1 medium jalapeñopepper (about ½ oz: 0

Health Benefits of Jalapeño Peppers

Jalapeños are also suggested in speeding up metabolism, another goal of low-carb dieting. Although most people don't eat enough jalapeño peppers to make a significant dent in their nutritional needs, just one pepper does fill about 10 percent of vitamin C needs for a day. Vitamin C helps boost the immune system by boosting white blood cells which fight off illness.

Many health benefits have been attributed to capsaicin (the substance that puts the "hot" in hot peppers), including alleviating headaches by inhibiting Substance P, a key neuropeptide that transmits pain signals in the brain. Capsaicin is also known as an anti-inflammatory.

Jalapeños are also a good source of vitamin A, which supports skin and eye health. One regular size jalapeño pepper, 2 to 4 inches in length, offers 17 percent of the recommended daily amount of vitamin A for men and 22 percent for women. Jalapeños are also a great source of vitamin B6, vitamin K and vitamin E, all of which are found at greater than 20 percent of the recommended daily amounts for men and women.

How to Eat Jalapeño Peppers

Eaten fresh, jalapeño peppers can have varying levels of spiciness as measured on the Scoville scale, an empirical measurement of the pungency of chili peppers that may or may not be displayed at your local supermarket. Jalapeños can be eaten fresh whole or sliced and added to salads, marinades, salsa or cheeses. You can seed jalapeños and eat them in halves or chop them up into chunks as well. Some add jalapeños to smoothies for an interesting kick. If you don't like them raw, you can buy them pickled, as many are introduced to them.

Pay-by-Space Parking Lots
How Does The New System Work?
Each parking space in the public lots is assigned a space number. A sensor is embedded in each space, sensing when a vehicle pulls into the space. The sensor wirelessly informs the pay station that a vehicle has pulled in, and the software then allows 5 minutes for the customer to pre-pay for parking.
How Will The Parking Enforcement Officers Know That I've Paid?
All Officers will be equipped with handheld devices that communicate with the new MSMs through a wireless connection. The equipment communicates in real-time so the officer can be more efficient in their duties. Since the system keeps a detailed record of every parking session, it can alert Officers when someone has exceeded their paid time - or failed to pay altogether.
What Are The Hours Of The Lots?
Below are the hours and rates for the lots.
You MUST either pay for parking or use your SmartCard during these hours:
LOT 1: 7am—10pm; $3.00 per hour
LOT 2: 7am—10pm; $3.00 per hour
LOT 3: 8am—10pm; $2.00 per hour
LOT 4: 8am—6pm; $1.00 per hour

Why Have the Procedure?
Some people have stubborn areas of fat cells that will not shrink no matter how much they diet or exercise. The common areas for these fat pockets include the chin, neck, hips, abdomen, thighs, buttocks and even calves and ankles.
A newer technique called ultrasonic-assisted lipoplasty (UAL) may help you address that unwanted fat. UAL is an enhancement to the currently used tumescent liposuction method. To keep your new shape and new weight after this lipoplasty, you will need to follow a proper diet and exercise plan.
How Does Lipoplasty Differ From Other Liposuction Techniques?
UAL uses high-frequency sound waves to liquefy fat beneath the skin's surface before removing it with gentle suction. Tumescent liposuction and traditional liposuction cannot liquefy fat cells, and this makes the fat more difficult to remove.
What Are the Benefits of Lipoplasty?
Early results by a select group of plastic surgeons internationally have been encouraging. However, further study is needed to determine if lipoplasty will replace existing liposuction techniques.
UAL allows physicians to remove significant amounts of fat in a single session because the fat is liquefied by sound waves. It can be especially useful in areas of dense fat such as the back. The use of sound waves prevents surrounding blood vessels and connective tissue from being damaged because fat cells are selectively destroyed and removed.
What Happens During Ultrasonic-Assisted Lipoplasty?
Several steps are involved. Similar to traditional liposuction, the skin is marked to indicate the precise area from which the fat will be removed. Next, a large amount of very dilute anesthetic solution is injected into the body site to numb and swell the fatty area (tumescent technique).
Then, in a step unique to lipoplasty, a thin tube-like instrument called an ultrasonic probe is inserted beneath the skin through a small incision. The probe is maneuvered in a crisscross pattern while sound waves generate negative pressure, causing the fat cells to implode, or collapse, and liquefy. The liquefied fat and anesthetic fluid are removed using gentle suction.

"Valentine, the budgie-smuggler thief and the quest to find treasure" by Nick Earls
29/05/2015 , 2:31 PM by Georgia Wilson | Comments (0)
At the Sydney Writers' Festival outside broadcast last week, Dom Knight (presenting the Afternoons show) got author Nick Earls to put together a crowd sourced story.
We used the TFIF "Wheel of Death" to put some audience suggested topics together for Nick to incorporate into a story that had to be written and completed within the two hour window between 1-3pm.
We present to you the story of Valentine, the budgie-smuggler thief and his quest for treasure.
Hero: Valentine
Nemesis: The budgie-smuggler thief
Quest: find treasure
Words (submitted by the Sydney Writers Festival 702 broadcast audience)
Blender, rocking horse, spectacles, frog, Minecraft, Tony Abbott (who might by some be seen to make an appearance, though not by name), nose, wind, dishwasher
Valentine checked the old blender, but the missing pocket money wasn't there. He'd rolled it up in Dad's old red budgie smugglers, since no one would look in them. And there was no way Dad would have taken them back. Apart from that mystery stain, Mum had banned budgie smugglers in the house years ago, declaring that the household's budgies were not the world's business.
He should have been more careful. He should have pushed them all the way to the back of his undie drawer, since no one would have pulled all of his undies out to get to anything. But he'd left them close to the window, and now the window was open and the budgie smugglers - and more importantly the hoarded cash - were gone.
He didn't want to believe it was true. He must have hidden it somewhere else in the house while he was thinking about something else. That happened sometimes. And he would have put it somewhere no one would be likely to look. And no one used the old blender, not since Dad's failed attempt to make his own biodiesel.
It was down in the workshop, next to the rocking horse Dad had made from old Holden parts, but that had never been exactly rideable due to him being short of leg parts. 'You're not a finisher, Don.' Mum said that a lot. But he had some big ideas, even if they didn't all lead to something.
Valentine stuck his arm up the unfinished rocking horse leg - no budgie smugglers. More importantly, no pocket money. He'd washed an insane number of dishes for that money. It had to be found.
He had serious Minecraft commitments to fund. Mum and Dad would go halves on the books, since they were books and therefore clearly of great value, but all the game stuff took pocket money.
As usual Mum had ABC24 on when Valentine walked back through the loungeroom. He heard the politician's voice before he entered the room, the umming and aahing, the not answering the question. He didn't even mean to glance at the screen, but there they were front and almost centre - a pair of red budgie smugglers. And almost certainly loaded with pocket money. The man had a lifesavers hat on and looked ready for action, but they weren't asking him about lifesaving. Whatever they asked him about he was ducking the question. No one had asked yet - not that Valentine had heard - about the pocket money, but they guy was clearly shifty.
The only thing for Valentine to do was to get on a bus immediately, go to the beach in question and demand the cash back. It would probably be okay for the man to keep the budgie smugglers, unless he was prepared to wash them a couple of times before giving them back.
The bus came within minutes. Valentine checked the time. He was going to make it. But then, all of a sudden, the bus swerved across the road and braked suddenly. He fell off his seat. So did plenty of other people. Even the bus driver.
'It was the frog,' the bus driver said, pointing to the road. 'It just hopped out. And I'm pretty sure it's endangered.'
'Particularly if it's going to jump in front of buses,' one woman said. 'But why are we still stopped here?'
'My spectacles,' the driver said. 'Did anyone see where they went?'
Oh no! The budgie smuggler thief was going to get away with it.
Valentine was the only passenger small enough to get down on his knees and under the driver's seat and there, jammed between the driver's lunch and his esky of energy drinks, were the missing spectacles.
Some fluff got up Valentine's nose and he sneezed, dropping the glasses.
'Get on with it!' a man's voice shouted from down the back of the bus. 'I've got a dishwasher to fix.'
Valentine could have done without that. His entire pocket money and Minecraft future were at stake. That was a way bigger deal than any dishwasher. What about using the kitchen sink occasionally? He pulled the glasses out and gave them back to the driver, who started the bus again.
For the next few minutes, it continued to wind through the streets. The clock was ticking.
Valentine jumped from the bus as it stopped, and ran to the beach. The cameras had gone, but the budgie-smuggler thief hadn't. He was on his way out of the water. Valentine was just in time.
He ran towards the thief. From the look of the thief, Valentine was confident that the lost pocket money was still in the budgie smugglers though, after the swim, it seemed very reduced in amount.
'Stop thief!' Valentine shouted. 'Give me back the budgie smugglers! Actually, no. Keep them, but give me back my pocket money!'
'Nope, Nope, Nope,' the man said. 'In this economy we all have to make sacrifices.' And with that, he ran off across the sand, one hand adjusting the remaining small change in the budgie smugglers as he did so.

"We have to come to grips with the fact that the growth of the entitlement programs is driving the projected growth of debt," said Robert Bixby, executive director of the non-partisan Concord Coalition. "It's a matter of mathematics. Just look at the number of beneficiaries. Those programs are going to be much, much more expensive in the coming years."
"It's not the waste, fraud and abuse (causing the debt). It's not even the war spending," he said. "You just look at programs like Social Security and Medicare and count the numbers of beneficiaries."

"Circuiteer Dryer"
This dryer has been a real work horse, we bought ours in 1984 from Jeffers, I use it to dry our samoyeds and it's still going srong and never been serviced, I highly recommend this dryer, it will be your first and last dryer you'll ever have to purchase :-)
"Circuiteer II"
"I have had a Circuiteer II since the early 90s and it is still going strong. That poor dryer has been dropped, knocked over, and accidentally pulled off its hanging spot on the wall. Still works just fine, although I wouldn't recommend that kind of abuse. The dryer will blow gravel down the driveway it is so powerful. I use it to dry Newfoundlands after a bath and I don't even towel dry, I just let them shake a few times. I hold the nozzle at an angle that blows the water off of the dog rather than blowing the air ""at"" the dog (be very careful with any dryer when blowing around eyes and face). It takes about 15 to 20 minutes to get a double coated wet dog nearly dry. I do a bit of trimming and then go back and give them a final drying and any remaining moisture blows off quickly. I only like using equipment that works well and cuts my work time to the shortest time possible. HIGHLY recommend. "
"oldie but a goodie"
We got a used Circuiteer dryer 25 years ago and it is still going strong!Bought a newer one several years ago when we needed a second.You can easily get a replacement hose and filters anytime you need them. Great product for cattle, horses etc.
We got our Blower today that we ordered threw Jeffers. We plugged it up and it works great. It was everything we were looking for. If you have Goats like we do and show them for 4-H this the Blower for you.

text: Legislature passes budget that increases funding for higher education The Legislature passed the fiscal 2014 state budget on July 1, sending it to Governor Deval Patrick on the first day of the new fiscal year. The budget conference committee report, a compromise between the House and Senate, was debated in both branches but could not be amended. The budget passed the House 122-29 and the Senate 36-3. The governor has until July 12 to either sign the budget, veto it or propose amendments to certain sections. The $34 billion budget relies on revenue increases passed as part of a transportation bill that was approved on June 26 and is now on the governor's desk. Patrick has said he will return that bill to the Legislature by July 6 with a proposed amendment that would raise additional revenues. The conference committee's report contains significant increases in higher education funding. Those increases were proposed by both the governor and the House and agreed to by the Senate in the conference committee. Funding for the University of Massachusetts, the state universities and the community colleges is increased by nearly $95 million, a 10 percent increase over fiscal 2013. The additional funding is expected to allow campuses to freeze tuition and fees, helping students hold down debt. MTA members urged legislators to support the higher funding amount for public colleges and universities, and the work paid off. The MTA thanked the co-chairs of the Joint Committee on Higher Education, Senator Michael Moore (D-Millbury) and Representative Tom Sannicandro (D-Ashland), for their strong advocacy and their legislative leadership on behalf of public higher education. The budget also contained language establishing a Special Commission on Higher Education Quality, Efficiencies and Finance, which the MTA supported and helped to improve. The MTA has one seat on the commission. The MTA will also be a member of a new special commission established in the budget to study early education and care services. An effort to revive the Foundation Budget Review Commission, which had been adopted unanimously in the Senate, was not included in the conference committee's report. That bill has been filed separately as Senate Bill 207 and House Bill 457, and it remains a top MTA legislative priority.For additional analysis of the FY14 budget passed by the Legislature on July 1, visit the Mass Budget and Policy Center.

The Class of 2012 also included coaches Joe B. Hall of Kentucky and Dave Robbins of Virginia Union; players Kenny Sailors of Wyoming, Earl Monroe of Winston Salem State and Willis Reed of Grambling; and contributors Jim Host and Joe Dean.
The first freshman to start the first game of his North Carolina career under Hall of Fame coach Dean Smith, Ford led UNC to the 1975 Atlantic Coast Conference Tournament championship and was the first freshman in ACC history to win the Everett Case Award as the most valuable player in the ACC Tournament. Carolina won 99 of 124 games with Ford, reached the NCAA tournament every year and advanced to the NCAA championship game in 1977. He scored 2,290 career points, was a first team All-ACC and All-America selection for his final three seasons and, as a senior, won the Wooden Award and was the consensus National Player of the Year.
The hall of fame is located in the College Basketball Experience (CBE), a world-class entertainment facility that provides a multi-faceted interactive experience for fans of the game. The four-team CBE Hall of Fame Classic tips off Monday (11/19) at the Sprint Center. Saint Louis and Texas A&M (ESPNU) face off in the first game at 7:30 p.m. (EST) with Washington State meeting Kansas (ESPN2) in the nightcap at 10:00 p.m. (EST). The consolation game is scheduled for 7:00 p.m. (EST) on Tuesday (ESPN3) with the championship game at 9:30 p.m. (EST) on ESPNU.
The 2012 induction ceremonies for the National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame may be seen on Sunday, December 9, at 10 p.m. (EST) on ESPNU.
A three-time consensus first team All-America, Ewing dominated during his career at Georgetown. The seven-foot center led Hall of Fame coach John Thompson's team to three NCAA championship games, including a national title with an 84-75 win over Houston in New Orleans in 1984. He is the all-time leader in blocked shots (493/3.45pg), rebounds (1,316/9.2pg) and games played (143) for Georgetown.
Playing for Hall of Fame coach Phog Allen at Kansas, Lovellette was the first player to win championships in the NCAA, AAU, NBA and Olympic Games. The 6-9 center was a three-time All-America selection for the Jayhawks and led the Big 7 Conference in scoring in each of his three seasons. He was the nation's top scorer in 1952 with 28.6 points per game and was the Most Outstanding Player in the 1952 NCAA Tournament.
One of college basketball's most spectacular backcourt performers, Monroe starred for Hall of Fame coach Clarence "Big House" Gaines at Winston-Salem State. His ball handling and shooting skills dazzled crowds as he led Winston-Salem to the NCAA Division II championship in 1967, averaging an incredible 41.5 points per game and was named the NCAA Division II Player of the Year.
An outstanding power forward for Grambling, Reed led the Tigers to three Southwestern Athletic Conference championships and three national championship tournaments in the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics, winning the national title in 1961. As a senior for the Tigers, Reed averaged 26.6 points and 21.3 rebounds and Grambling placed third in the national championship tournament.
Credited with introducing the jump shot, Sailors was a four-year letterman at Wyoming. He led the Cowboys to the 1943 NCAA championship, earned most valuable player honors in the NCAA tournament and was a consensus first team All-America selection. Following his standout 1943 season, Sailors enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps to serve in World War II. He returned to Wyoming in 1945-46, once again earning all-conference and All-America honors.
As a Kentucky assistant coach in 1972, Hall had the unenviable task of succeeding Adolph Rupp. Unfazed by the task, Hall guided the Wildcats for 13 seasons, winning 75 percent of 397 games. Within three years, he reached the NCAA championship game and, in 1978, he earned National Coach of the Year honors while coaching Kentucky to its fifth national title with a 30-2 record. His Wildcat teams won eight SEC championships and earned a Final Four berth for the third time in 1984. He was named SEC Coach of the Year four times.
As the first white coach in the history of the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association (CIAA), which consists of historically black colleges and universities, Robbins' ascension to collegiate coaching in 1978 drew considerable criticism. He guided the Panthers to their first NCAA Division II championship in 1980 and followed that up with two more - in 1992 and 2005. Robbins' teams had a remarkable won-lost record of 713-194, for a winning percentage of .786 over his 30 seasons.
Few men have influenced the game of basketball as diversely as Dean. The three-time All-SEC player at LSU was a promotions and marketing executive with the Converse Rubber Co. from 1959-1987, advocating not only the Converse products but promoting the game of basketball wherever he traveled. In addition, he was a basketball color analyst with several networks including ESPN, NBC and Turner Sports from 1969-1987 before returning to his alma mater in Baton Rouge as director of athletics for 14 years.
The founder and principal of Host Communications, Host realized the potential growth of men's basketball and partnered the NCAA with major corporations like Gillette, Valvoline and Pizza Hut. Host, who also had a background in broadcasting, went on to create a model for multimedia rights, bundling everything from coaches' radio and TV shows, promotional appearances, endorsements and publishing into a single package for some of the nation's top programs. He has been recognized as one of college athletics' most influential people.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|if someone is there to greet me--at a fuel dock or whatever dock i am aiming at, i toss a line from bow--if me solo, i step off waist with midships line then tie the bow and stern as i am able and in a manner in which the boat doesnt jerk or tug.
|I have stopped handing lines to people on shore as I have a bowsprit and the first thing they tend to do is pull as hard as they can to bring the boat alongside. If I give them my bow line its usually the bowsprit that comes into contact first. Nasty!

A few members have responded about having a lot of current in their Marinas. While we have to deal with strong winds and some surge in the SF Bay Area marinas, I've never been to a Marina where currents were an issue. Aren't breakwaters supposed to eliminate currents for the most part?
Thanks for the videos. Some classic stuff! Evidence that people can screw up stepping OR jumping from moving boats, boats that are secure and from secure docks onto boats. I guess the rule should be "Think before YOU move". But then....I thought that went without saying. Silly me!
I think the general admonition not to jump from a moving boat is aimed at jumping off of a moving boat.
It's one thing to neatly STEP off the boat onto the dock as the boat is slowly sliding along side the dock at 0.3 kts and slowing, when there is 6" between the toerail and the dock.
It's another thing to try to clear the 4-foot gap to the dock while the boat is coasting in at 1.5 kts.
The latter can get you very wet, or worse, seriously injured and in the extreme, killed.
Rarely is a boat dead stopped in relation to the dock, when coming in for docking. It's always going to be moving even a teensy bit in one direction or another. It is, obviously, a judgement call.
The issue is the inexperienced, who have yet to develop that judgment, or who are not even aware of the potential issue, who think they need to be "helpful" and leap to the dock as soon as they perceive it to be within leaping distance. Then they find out their leaping abilities are not quite what they thought they were.
I tell the newbies on the boat to not do so and to wait until I tell them to step off.
I always step off my moving boat or have a trusted guest step off. With a strong current and a 6hp outboard the boat is moving until at least two dock lines are secured.
Normal procedure come into the slip with enough power so that before the first fender forward of the shrouds nudges the finger pier, motor is shifted into neutral, I or trusted guest stand outside the shrouds, and step off as the fender nudges. Spring line in hand and boat temporarily secured while other dock lines secured and adjusted.
But not this afternoon. Single handed approach the slip at just under half throttle to overcome the current, bow enters the slip, motor to neutral, I go forward step off at the shrouds as the fender nudges home, spring line in hand ready to drop onto the dock cleat. The boat starts to gain speed reversing out of the dock, closest cleat is now at the end of the finger pier.
With spring line on the end cleat the boat swings around to form a perfect tee with the pier, just missing neighbors both sides. Step back on the now stationary boat and with longer dock lines and power get the boat back into its slip.
I have docked at marinas with almost no current and at my marina at slack current, then it is possible to step off a stationary boat.
I won't say there's a right or a wrong answer with regard to stepping off a moving boat.
With regard to MY boat...it's wrong. I figure if someone has to jump off, I haven't docked properly. I don't allow it.
|Funny thing is the closest I've ever come to falling off was stepping off my boat while it was firmly secured. A little morning dew on a borrowed dock step (I never use one, but my old dad was visiting) combined with the fact that the nonskid "sticker" on the step was completely gone, and I slid right off of that thing so fast I didn't even know what happened. Landed on the dock, on my feet, but barely.
The Bears two cents worth
A moving boat is a free body in a THREE dimensional world that is very difficult to predict; winds, currents, mass, speed, and pure dumb luck. Stay with the boat untill it is somewhat secured! I have seen too too many scraped shins, barked knees, and smashed faces from people "just jumping" to the dock to tie off a line. Bring her in dead slow, lined up where you want, and use a boat hook to put a line to a dock cleat to stop her dead. Yes, it takes practice and skill, what mastering your boat is all about.
Remember the first rule, the captain is responsipal for the safety and wellbeing of his crew and any guest, and allowing them much less asking them to endanger themselves is in TOTAL violation for this rule.
As for asking some on the dock to handle a docking line is a shot in the dark unless you reconize them and KNOW that they can and will do the correct things to assist in bringing in your boat to the dock. They might be someones guest and have no idea of what is involved. These are people who sit down on the dock and try an fend off several tons of boat with a foot or tie off a stern line before you even pass it.
Yes, it take practice and practice to bring her in in all the many conditions you will come up against just as taking her up does but that will be small potatoes against the quiet nods and smiles and waves of the other skippers who are watching, and yes they do, when you bring her in to a dead float 6" from the dock.
Here's another thing that happens.. handing off the line to a "helpful" soul on the dock while still coasting, whereupon they promptly snub it down and send the stern shearing off away from the dock!!
|I hardly ever step off a moving boat. That's the wife's job.

Massive police reinforcement led by Prime Minister Francois Fillon in person tried to halt the spread of violence in the nation's capital. Cars and shops continued being set ablaze, but there was nothing like the bloody shootings on Monday which left 82 police officers wounded, including four on the critical list. Despite a momentary lull, many are awaiting further attacks from infuriated Muslim youths, most in their teens, who fought the police and even burned down a library. Two years after the riots of 2005, France again confronts angry, alienated youth. Even politicians from Sarkozy's own party are citing a decision made by him when Minister of the Interior which played a role in the rioting. At that time, Sarkozy abolished local police units in the suburbs and replaced them with flying squads composed mostly of riot police. The appearance of any police now triggers emotions that outside forces are entering the area to deal with violence.
Hughes Portelli, the mayor of Elmont, said, "We ned to have the local police back…in my town we know very well that there is no point in calling in some CRS(riot police) units. They only provoke a fight." In America, the emphasis on local police establishing relations with people in a community has proven an important factor in preventing riots and violence. The French might learn from the American experience.

Delaware Board of Nursing Changes
Following a recent meeting with the Delaware Board of Nursing we received a letter from the executive director stating that the Board has agreed to extend the deadline for licensing Excelsior graduates by examination if they apply for licensure no later than January 31, 2014.
There are no changes to the previously announced regulations:
- The Board will continue to license graduates by endorsement according to their requirements, such as having 400 hours of clinical practice as a registered nurse in another U.S. jurisdiction or a federal facility in Delaware within the 2 years prior to application.
- The change is a result of recent efforts to implement regulations pertaining to the criteria for approval of in-state nursing programs and eligibility requirements for RN licensure.
We are working closely with currently enrolled Students in Delaware to advise them about completing requirements in time to meet the deadline. Students who are unable to meet the deadline will still have options for initial licensure in other states.
It is important to note that the decision to change their long standing practice of licensing our graduates is not based on any changes to our program or the performance of our graduates.
We continue to advocate for the ability of our graduates to be licensed in Delaware. In order to do so it is important that you use MyExcelsior, My Profile (login required) to update your email address so that we can keep you informed as we continue our efforts in Delaware. If you have questions, do not hesitate to contact us at email@example.com or toll free at 888-647-2388, ext. 1315.

Stanislev Belkovsky, a billionaire, who opposes Putin, charges the president of Russia has secretly accumulated a fortune that might be as high as $40 billion. Putin allegedly owns shares of stock in Gazprom and companies like Surgutneftegaz whose holdings have dramatically increased in value over the past decade. According to Belkovsky, "Putin's name does not appear on any shareholder register, of course." He may have money hidden in offshore accounts. Belkovsky claims a war over power and money is raging within the Kremlin between those representing the old KGB clique whom Putin put in power government positions and the new 'liberal" group headed by Dimitry Medvedev, whom Putin has designated as the next president of Russia. The KGB crowd is worried about how to maintain control of their money since Medvedev has little allegiance or connection to their group. The conflict is not over ideological issues so much as to how to keep money one has secreted away while serving in the Russian government.
There is little question Medvedev will be elected president of Russia this spring and that he will then appoint Putin as the prime minister. It is less clear what happens if corruption issues surface and Medvedev is left with the question of possible prosecuting his mentor. These stories about possible corruption could enable Medvedev to pull an end run around Putin by getting rid of his mentor and becoming the real ruler of Russia without having ties to the man who placed him in power.Of course, many Shakespeare plays recount similar stories of youth overcoming parents.

and use the IO variant of privmsg.
Revision as of 16:20, 8 April 2012
Thanks for this useful tutorial! I implemented the normal chat functionality using forkIO as suggested but I'm not happy with my solution. Where would you put the call to forkIO? And how would you write the function that you pass it? Is it possible to somehow use privmsg in this function or do I have to duplicate that code more or less? --Gog 19:09, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
I had the same problem. You can't really forkIO directly from inside the Reader monad, even with liftIO. I ended up with this but maybe there is a better way:
privmsgIO :: Handle -> String -> IO () privmsgIO h s =
writeIO h "PRIVMSG" (botChan ++ " :" ++ s)
-- Send a privmsg to the current chan + server privmsg :: String -> IrcBot () privmsg s = do
h <- asks socket liftIO $ privmsgIO h s
then when I need to forkIO, I do
foo = do
h <- asks socket liftIO $ forkIO (privmsg h ...)
and use the IO variant of privmsg.

Penn State's goal all season, Matt McGloin said Tuesday, has been to approach each and every game like it's our last.
On Saturday, that will in fact be the case for McGloin and his fellow seniors.
It promises to be a Senior Day like no other. Word has already circulated that there will be a first-time-ever presentation before the season finale against Wisconsin, which seems altogether fitting and proper, given the way this class has conducted itself in the face of unprecedented obstacles. And McGloin said the idea is to leave on a high note, to beat the Badgers and finish 8-4.
His parents, Paul and Cathy, are expected to be on hand. Ditto for his two older brothers, Paul Jr. and John. It was Matt's dad who said earlier this season that no matter what happens, he will regard Matt's career as an unqualified success -- and that was before the younger McGloin established himself as the Big Ten's best passer, before he gave Bill O'Brien's offense wings.
Four years ago, we had no idea what was going to happen, Paul McGloin said then, as he sat in the living room of the family's home in Scranton. Matt-themed memorabilia was everywhere. There was also a sign on the table near the TV: It's A Wonderful Life. That happens to be Paul's favorite movie, as well as the way he tends to view things.
He could still be sitting on the sideline with people saying, 'Who's No. 11?' the elder McGloin said. My feeling is, he persevered over the four years to get here. I'm proud of him to get where he's at.
Paul admits to being very sentimental --so much so that he cried after Matt threw his first career touchdown pass, two years ago against Minnesota, and teared up again when Matt was named a captain before a game earlier this season.
So yeah, he figures to be a mess when his son emerges one last time from Beaver Stadium's south tunnel Saturday.
I'll tell you right now -- I'll probably be the last guy to leave Beaver Stadium, Paul said back then.
His son has left a lasting impression. During last week's rout of Indiana, he set single-season records for completions (251) and passing yards (3,071), as well as career marks for touchdown passes (45), 200-yard games (17), 300-yard games (six) and consecutive 200-yard games (nine).
Matt, second in single-season TD passes (23) and career yardage (6,190), has completed 61.4 percent of his attempts this season, and has been intercepted just five times.
It's been fantastic to see him develop, QB coach Charlie Fisher said Wednesday. He's endured a lot. He's gone through a lot of ups and downs, like all quarterbacks and all players. When you play the quarterback position, it's not going to be all roses. There's going to be some tough days. To me, that's the measure of a really, really good quarterback -- a guy that can bounce back from the tough days or the bad throw or the bad decision and keep going.
And goodness knows, McGloin has done that. His history is well-known -- from his walk-on past to the fact that he has never had the position to himself until this season.
To see him go out his fifth year and play the way he has, Fisher said, it's been fantastic.
Fisher said that when he was an assistant at Vanderbilt he reviewed some video of McGloin from his days at West Scranton High School, since Fisher's recruiting territory was Pennsylvania. While Fisher liked what he saw, the Commodores decided not to recruit McGloin, because their coaches didn't believe he would be a good fit in their zone-read attack.
So McGloin, who didn't have any major-college offers, went to Penn State as a preferred walk-on. That's because, he said, I wanted to play football at the highest level. I thought I had the ability to, and was capable of performing on Saturday. Penn State wanted me as a walk-on, and I came here and the rest is history, I guess you could say.
An arduous climb up the depth chart ensued. That it has proved so successful comes as no surprise to Fisher.
That's that Scranton in him, he said.
Neither O'Brien nor Fisher looked at video of McGloin from earlier in his career after they were hired, choosing instead to evaluate him based only upon what they saw with their own eyes.
Certainly there were mileposts along the way. O'Brien said after the Indiana game that he knew McGloin was zeroed in on winning the job in the spring from Rob Bolden and Paul Jones -- both of whom were still around then -- when the head coach asked him to draw up a play called Gun Trips Right 64 Special H Sneak.
He drew it up within about three seconds -- neatly, O'Brien said.
Fisher said Wednesday he remembered that day, too. But he also recalled a day later in the spring -- it was a Monday, he said, and the team practiced inside Holuba Hall -- when things really seemed like they were starting to click for McGloin.
You could just kind of sense that the ball was coming out fast, his mind was starting to slow down, he was processing the information, he was getting the verbiage correct, Fisher said. He was just doing a lot of good things.
He has continued in that fashion ever since.
So now comes one last milepost. Asked Tuesday what he might miss most about playing at Penn State, McGloin said performing before 100,000-plus fans each Saturday.
And what would he miss least?
Talking to the media every week, he said during a conference call with reporters. Just kidding. That was a joke, guys.
It would be entirely understandable if it were not, given the tendency in this day and age to over-analyze the utterance of every public figure -- even those of a college kid. But let the record also show that McGloin, a broadcast journalism/telecommunications major (he graduates next month), was refreshingly candid and forthright whenever he dealt with the members of the Fourth Estate.
In general, he said, I'm going to miss everything about this place. It's a great place, and the people that you meet are very special. It's going to be an emotional day, come Saturday.
But not too emotional, he said. Not during the game itself. Then, he believes, he will be able to focus on the task at hand.
The other stuff? He'll leave that to his dad.

It seems it went on forever. But after four months and 40 hearings, we reached the end of the beginning of Lord Justice Leveson's examination of our newspapers. The first stage - into the culture, practice and ethics of the press - has came to an end.
With more than 180 witnesses taking to the stand to give evidence, it is easy to get lost in a blur of journalists, editors and celebrities, and remember who said what when.
Therefore, before the second module on the relationship between the press and the police begins on 27 February, we have put together this collection of the most important faces to speak up so far and a summary of what they had to say for themselves.

Contact us for personalized service...
We have two furry assistant innkeepers, Harley & Violet, who are always eager to make new friends. While they have free run of the inn, they are not allowed in the guest rooms (unless you encourage them...). Most of the time, you will find them lounging somewhere (they are cats after all...), either on our garden patio in summer, or near a fireplace in the winter.
Harley has been with us since our Singapore days, where we adopted him from the SPCA. He has never completely adjusted to Vermont winters, though a warm fireplace is better than the alternative he was facing in Singapore! He has adapted to the life of an innkeeper, and normally provides a warm welcome to all of our guests.
Violet is the youngest member of the Weathertop family. She is a native Vermonter, adopted from the Addison County Humane Society. She has always been a bit shy, but has come around quite nicely to the innkeeper lifestyle. She is younger than Harley, full of energy, and loves to give him plenty of exercise!
ALLERGY NOTE: If you have a severe cat allergy, we strongly recommend that you look for alternate accommodations. While we keep the inn as clean as possible, it is impossible to guarantee the removal of all allergens. Thank you in advance for your understanding

Puppy Training Stress
1 Attachment(s)
I am raising a puppy again for the first time in nearly 15 years. She is my first GSD, currently 13 weeks old & have had her since 7 wks.
I find that no matter how hard I try, I am constantly thinking about the next training issue or problem that will come up. I've been told I'm too concerned with turning her into the perfect dog & thats why I'm obsessing & I should juat let her be a puppy.
I just want her to grow into a good dog & am starting early.
Am I alone in the obsessing over future problems?
training and socializing takes care of future problems.
The more you think about these "potential" problems, the more you will show it in your body language. The dog will pick up your stress. Be confident and have fun. If an issue pops up down the road, you can deal with it at that time. For now, enjoy your training with your pup. Have patience and most importantly, have fun!
I let my puppies be puppies, there are no perfect dogs:)
I do teach/work on the basics when they are puppies, making things FUN.
Socializing is important, and creating a good bond.
I will at least validate that yes, others do obsess... or at least I did... sometimes still do. ;-)
I too had not had a puppy in a long time and too, first time with a head-strong and landshark puppy too. I believe in investing heavily in the first year in time and training, so yeah, I obsessed and still do if he is not with me and with my husband... like he will be today. ACK.
I agree that you have to be vigilant that you don't transfer anxiety or frustration to your pup. They will be puppies and should be carefree puppies. Throw in training and socialization as fun. So, like most of what you read on here... you have to train yourself more than you are actually training the dog. Do some yoga or mindfulness training and have the dog present. So they see you working to relax. Pup will love it if you are on the floor.
Good luck, don't judge yourself, and just get into training in the moment (little tiny moments) If you can't, make sure to get in a class with a trainer who can help you slow down and enjoy the moment.
Make sure to read the thread on "Rethinking Popular Early Socialization" Lots of good stuff... this from Carmspak, who I believe is a breeder of GSDs
early socialization is very well studied and documented in the classic Scott and Fuller Dog Behaviour the Genetic Basis.
Unfortunately the windows are not "pliable" . This was the result of 20 years of testing , built on Konrad Lorenz , Trummler , Tinberg's observation of critical times in socializing.
What Scott and Fuller demonstrated is that there does not need to be an overbearing amount of attention or stimulation -- more is not better, correct and sensitive to the individual is better . They worked with 5 breeds and did find that different breeds to respond differently.
this !
quote "It's interesting to note that a lot of dogs (herding breeds especially) seem to notice when we're trying too hard at socializing/trying to build a positive reinforcement. And MANY of them with anything less than stellar nerves, get weird about it. This, IME, can CAUSE fear and issues in them"
was a remark in the study !! good observation.
I think this is one way dogs , since we are talking GSD, can be damaged by that pressured aim to socialize. We have a lot of posters who are shocked when their very , almost too friendly puppy loved by all , becomes a problem , excused as a passing fear stage , when in reality insecure and potentially fear aggressive , or in avoidance.
The "pop" advice is grab that dog as soon as you get him and socialize , meet , (how many?) strangers in a set time.
Is there a disconnect . You have a breed which by nature should be stranger neutral . Puppies are attention magnets . People will come and "maul" the precious wecious pup - strangers are encouraged to feed the dog . So what happens . The pup is no longer a pup but a dog -- hardly the same reaction . Dog now reacts on his impact on the stranger who is taking a wide berth , backing up , acting like prey , stimulating another internal drive within the dog . Is this being honest with the dog.
young dogs are being flooded without any consideration to that pups mental age .
some young pups are over handled , over stimulated in the bio-sensor , without feeling .
Lack of early socializing can result in maladjusted dogs. On the other hand it is very important how you go about socializing and training or the same results will be the unintended consequence.

'"It's good for me. More enforcers, the more chances I'll play," Scott said. "I think you see that from year to year, the shift from West to East, with the tough guys. I think last year all the tough guys were in the West, and the West did pretty well, so the Eastern Conference teams wanted to bulk up and be a little more physical. … It's good. I enjoy going up against the more physical guys."'

Deadly crash closes Route 252 in Lorain County
(Lorain County)- The Elyria Post of the Ohio Highway Patrol identifies the victim as 44 year old David Makaryk of Columbia Station.
Mr. Makaryk died this morning around 8:40 when his Ford Fusion hit two utility poles on Route 252, between Sprague Road and Route 82.
Police say he was traveling at a high rate of speed, and following a Ford F-150 truck when the crash occurred.
The truck apparently did not stop.
Crews expect the road to be closed another three hours.
ODOT says northbound motorists can use State Route 82 north to Sprague Road west as an alternate.

So, the Galaga game is still broken at work. Brian said that he was getting Ops a present... and I sure as hell hope it's either a poof chair or a Galaga repair person with a bow on his head.
I realized, as I spent about 6 hours debugging backups for $BIG_NAME_OPEN_SOURCE_PROJECT the other day, that I do a hell of a lot more work for the Free Software community at my current job than I ever did at Linuxcare or Quicknet or on my own even.
I need to learn more Solaris and FreeBSD and how to write portable shell scripts. GAR. I think I get to learn BGP soon too. Wooooo. Last week I learned more about administering CVS repositories than I ever wanted to know.
The Free Dmitry train parked in my life for a few days last weekend, and I realized that I'm just not a protest sort of person anymore, not like I was ten years ago. I have indirectly lent a mobo, cpu, and RAM to the cause, and I hope that that will be sufficient. I'm certainly glad that there are others out there like Crackmonkey, Seth Schoen, Mr.Bad, et al, who have the energy and enthusiasm to lead the activities.

Very cool! It must have been great to work with your grandfather!
I've been repairing my broken wireless microphones by putting them into Hasbro sabers. I host karaoke shows, so it's nice to be able to say "I have to carry this for work," when someone asks me why I have a lightsaber hanging from my belt.
I've got a Vader and an Obi-wan. I really wanna build Luke's from ROTJ, but that one is never correctly represented as a toy. The tip where the blade comes out is really thin, so they'd never be able to fit a toy blade in there. I'll have to build it pretty much from scratch. I've considered building a custom one, but I think that the majority of my karaoke audience would think that's too nerdy. I've got bills to pay, so I can't be alienating myself too much!
Very nice. Are you going to leave it white?

Arsène Wenger is excited about the two new additions he has made to the Arsenal squad so far this summer.
Wenger told Arsenal.com on Friday that he expects Ryo Miyaichi to push for a first-team place next season following a successful loan spell with Feyenoord. He also thinks summer signing Carl Jenkinson can challenge Bacary Sagna for a place at right back after the teenager's move from Charlton Athletic.
Both players will have an opportunity to prove their worth in an Arsenal shirt during the Club's pre-season tour of Asia.
"Ryo has been a fantastic surprise to us," Wenger said shortly after arriving in Malaysia. "He did well at Feyenoord after basically coming from school football.
'He is a very exciting prospect because he is quick and has a quick brain.
"Jenkinson is an interesting buy. We bought him from Charlton and hopefully he will push Sagna."
Someone else who could be knocking on the door is Emmanuel Frimpong. The combative midfielder looked a shoo-in for first-team opportunities last season before a knee injury curtailed his campaign on the eve of the Premier League start.
"We are very happy to have Frimpong back because he had a good start last year but unfortunately got an injury," said Wenger.Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

text: There are a couple ways to look at this. I doubt it was a seller's market with Rogers. He's a lazy player with off the field issues. When he wants to play (which has never been 16 consecutive games), he's one of the best in the league. I wouldn't be surprised if there wasn't a better offer out there. The timing to save the $1 million could have been the best they could swing.

Ethics and Conflict of Interests
The UNC Policy Manual
Chapter 100.1 - The Code
Section 204
It is of critical importance that decisions made on behalf of the University by its governors be in the best interest of the University and not be influenced by any potential financial gain to the decision-makers. Furthermore, to assure public confidence in the integrity of the University, it is important that the University not appear to be influenced by the personal financial interests of those in decision-making positions. In order to assure public confidence in the integrity of the University, members of the Board of Governors of the University should not use their positions, or appear to use their positions, to influence the decisions of the University for their personal financial gain. At the same time, the University should be able to take advantage of contracts that are advantageous to the citizens of North Carolina and to the University and should avoid having service to the University be so restrictive that persons with substantial financial interests will be reluctant to serve. In order to accomplish these goals, the Board of Governors shall adopt and enforce a policy governing conflicts of interest of its members. Each member of the Board of Governors shall comply with this policy.
