|Topic Review (Newest First)
The Electra is the MORC version of the Ensign with the same hull, but a larger cabin, 4 berths, a smaller self-bailing cockpit, and a masthead rig. The Ensign was originally named the Electra Ensign to distinguish between the two boats. There are still used Electras around even though only 319 of them were built and production ended in the early 60's due to the popularity of the Ensign daysailor. I recently saw a picture of a guy racing an Electra in the 2009 Solo Trans-Pac race. From what I understand they are very strongly built and capable small ocean racers, if you don't expect a whole lot of headroom or storage capacity.
"The best bilge pump is a frightened man with a horse bucket!"
|I guess it depends on wear you live BUT in Northport they have a big following with deep pockets thats shows up and fields a big one design fleet every week
Someone said earlier, but the Electra was the non-daysailor version of the Ensign if I remember correctly.
just for fun: http://www.ensignclass.com/images/st...gnBrochure.pdf
What else? I'm guessing you can find one well worth restoring or getting in working order. The rigs aren't complex, and sails are relatively small. IMHO, it's a great keel boat to learn on as it's easily sailed by tying the tiller to centerline and just steering/tacking/gybing/etc... by sail trim and weight placement. All the said, I can't imagine for the life of me paying more than 4-5k for one. Sure, a J-22 is a faster, more modern boat, but then a Rocket 22 is faster than a J-22. If the OP is interested in racing and playing with a local OD fleet, then it's more about numbers than the boat.
.... and Gordon Nash has a very unique and extensive skill set to bring to an old boat restoration, not to mention that he and his entire family (mom, bro, etc....) are all great sailors and can make pretty much anything they get on go fast.
|If it doesn't have to be an Ensign (not racing) an Electra or Sea Sprite are similarly nice looking boats in size and configuration.
I certainly agree that you can find used Ensigns cheaper than $8,000 to $15,000. The ones I saw for sale at those prices were early 60's models with total restorations, (newly recored deck, new teak all around, new rigging, sails, winches, fully race equipped, etc.) that the owners had probably put a lot of money into, as boatyard labor rates and OEM part prices can quickly add up. These were asking prices, not necessarily the selling prices. I recently saw a listing for an unrestored, but obviously well maintained, 60's vintage 6 time Ensign Championship winning boat listed for sale for $3200 in New England. And yes, some people left the Ensign fleet in favor of the Sonar and other newer designs as the Ensign Class Association chose to keep a fairly strict one design philosophy and limit proposed changes to the boat, in an effort to keep the older boats competitive. I wouldn't encourage people to rush out and buy an old boat and update it in the hope of getting a huge return on it, because that doesn't usually happen, given the current costs. The Ensign, in my opinion, is what it is, a great daysailor and one design race boat within its limits, and there is apparently still a demand for it.
I would not count on getting $8,000 to $15,000 for a restored Ensign. Not that long ago I looked at two that were for sale here on the Chesapeake, both in very nice condition, one with almost new sails and a reasonably new outboard that had asking prices of $3500 and $2600.
It would be very hard to find a buyer for a Ensign at that price, even if it was restored, when you can easily buy a J-22 or a Sonar in very nice condition for $8,000 to $15,000 and have a far better boat all around.
I found an Ensign fixer-upper at a local boatyard that the owner donated to our youth sailing program. It has a good rig, hull, sails, trailer, outboard, winches, etc. The deck, however is a different story. It's pretty much shot, along with the seats and floors. It will definitely need a lot of work, but even with the needed work it's a bargain, considering that new Ensigns cost $27,000 to $30,000 (without a trailer), and fully restored '60s models run $8,000 to $15,000. I plan on doing the work myself, with assistance and guidance from a professional boat builder who has volunteered his services free, if I buy the materials. There are still good Ensigns around, for a reasonable price, if you're not looking for a fully restored one. The Gulf Coast is a good place to look, with, as mentioned a large fleet in Houston, TX. I agree that the daysailor market has gone crazy, ($300,000? for a 26 footer
with a v-berth?) but I understand the shift away from complicated boats and the return to simpler, more relaxing sailing. The Ensign is perfect for a youth sailing program, with its huge cockpit, positive flotation, "big boat" handling and stability. I predict it will become more popular as time goes on and people rediscover one of the best kept secrets in sailing.
Ensigns are Great boats
Ensigns can be found in every state of (dis)repair, ranging in price from $500 (a total fixer-upper) to $18,000 for a race ready, or very seaworthy, boat. I race competitively, and have about $25,000 in mine. Over 40 active fleets are located up and down the eastern and gulf coasts, but the highest population is in New England. However, the Houston Yacht Club has 35 boats in its harbor and Denver Colorado also has a populous fleet. The class website is ensignclass dot com where numerous boats are listed for sale.
It is a great daysailor, with room for 8 people in the cockpit, though it is raced with a crew of four. It draws three feet and is great for shallow bays and steep chop. It has very classic lines, and was one of the first designs inducted into the Classic Boat Hall of Fame. The National Championship attracts up to 40 boats every year. A very nice sailing boat, it tacks through 75 degrees in a breeze and 85 to 90 in light winds.
A full complement of sails should include a main, a blade (great for day sailing), a #2 genoa (18 - 25 knots of wind), a #1 genoa (0 - 18 knots of wind), and a spinnaker.
Potential problem areas are the chain plates (water leakage), the deck (water leakage through hardware mounting holes, if not done properly), the bulkhead, and the sole (the keel stepped mast rests on the sole inside the cabin, and the rig will not hold tension if this is soft). If the sole is soft, a permanent and lasting repair can be achieved by replacing it with a 1" solid fiberglass plate. The combing boards add much rigidity to the boat and should be maintained or replaced when they are in bad condition. Properly maintained, they will last a very long time. There are fiberglass floorboard and seats available for a low maintenance boat and the minimum weight for the boat is 2900 lbs.
After repairing any soft spots in the deck, all hardware should be mounted by drilling oversized holes, filling each hole with epoxy to seal against water access to the balsa core, and then re-drilling properly sized holes for the mounting hardware.
Hope this helps...

Beyond that, check out the article titled "Gordie's World" in the June issue of Latitude 38. It's a great article about a guy who bought a 38 year-old Santana 27, and then rebuilt and resigned it to be a go-fast sled design, with plumb bow, new keel, new rig, new cockpit, articulated sprit pole, the whole nine yards.
In the end, the cost was about 1/3rd that of a new go-fast boat, but don't ask how many hours were involved. His point was that there are a lot of good boats out there heading for the dumpster, that could be brought back to beyond original spec.
I believe the the original cost of the boat was $1,000 after he sold off some unneeded parts, but then about $30k was invested over 2.5 years. 50 gallons of resin, a roll of fiberglass, kevlar cloth, carbon fibre... you get the idea.

I believe that you should be able to get one in pretty good shape in that range. But like all old boats, you will have to sink money into it to maintain it. I had one for several years and found it to be a great family daysailer. Not fast by today's standards but a large comfortable cockpit and sufficiently stiff. Not great in light air, though.
By the way, someone bought the molds and is selling them new. But I think that would cost somewhere in the twenties, which defeats the purpose, I guess.

Steph Houghton insists Arsenal Ladies are taking nothing for granted despite standing on the brink of retaining their Women's Super League title.
Laura Harvey's team are six points ahead of second-placed Birmingham with just two games to play, and will become champions if they avoid defeat against Doncaster Rovers Belles next Sunday, or if the Blues fail to win their game against Bristol Academy.
And Houghton wants to avoid a potentially tricky final game at Birmingham by ensuring the league is won at the first possible opportunity, in front of the ESPN cameras at Meadow Park.
"It's really important we don't take our eye off the ball," Houghton told Arsenal.com.
"It would be nice to go and get three points against Doncaster, but we know it's going to be a tough test.
"To do it [win the league] at our home ground and lift the trophy in front of our fans who have been really supportive is something that you want to do. Hopefully we do that on Sunday."
Before the game against Doncaster, Arsenal travel to Spain to take on Barcelona in the Champions League round of 32.
That fixture will be the second in a spell of six in just 17 days, and while she is looking forward to the tie, Houghton is aware that fixture congestion will force her manager to rotate her squad.
"Playing in the Champions League is a highlight of your career and to play against Barcelona is going to be something special," Houghton said.
"It's going to be exhausting playing so often in such a short space of time. Laura Harvey knows she's going to have to rotate the squad and give players a bit of a rest. We've got strength and depth in the squad - whoever plays will do a job."
Houghton has enjoyed a memorable year, scoring three times for Great Britain during the Olympics, and helping England to qualify for next summer's European Championships in Sweden.
Now, with Arsenal still competing on three fronts, the versatile defender wants to ensure she ends her impressive season with as much silverware as possible.
"You come to Arsenal to win trophies - to win the league and the league cup, as well as the Champions League, which is something we're aiming for," she said.
"We've got one hand on the league trophy and we need to finish the job against Doncaster next week. The whole squad is looking forward to it and hopefully we can end the season unbeaten."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

A study in Israel suggests that more frequent, intensive cooling sessions keeps milk production up
by Chelsey Johnson, Hoard's Dairyman Editorial Intern
It's hard to watch milk production drop during extended periods of high temperature. As you try to stay hydrated and cool while working outside during hot and humid temperatures, you must work even harder to keep your cows comfortable. However, there is some concern that extra cooling sessions with sprinklers and fans will elevate use of water, electricity and labor while limiting lying and rumination times.
A study conducted at the Institute of Animal Science in Israel indicated that more frequent cooling sessions with fans and sprinklers boost intake, milk yield and rumination time. The findings of the study were published in the July 2012 Journal of Dairy Science.
This study involved 42 Holsteins divided into two treatment groups and housed in an open barn. Each group was subjected to a different cooling schedule. The cows were moved to the holding area of the milking parlor for 45-minute cooling sessions that alternated between 30 seconds of showering and 4.5 minutes of ventilation without showering. One group received this cooling treatment five times per day, while the other group received treatment eight times per day.
At the end of the four-week study, the results indicated that cooling cows more frequently improved comfort. As a result, cows spent more time lying down than those with fewer cooling sessions. In addition, the eight cooling session cows produced on average 7.7 pounds per day more milk than the five-cooling-session cows. Dry matter intake was 9.3 percent higher and milk yield was 9.6 percent higher for the cows that received eight-cooling-sessions.
So, keep in mind during extreme hot and humid temperatures, it may be worth investing the time, labor and electricity to provide more frequent cooling sessions for your herd.

NBA Wireless Telecom Partner T-Mobile Now Turning Up The Heat In Miami
October 28, 2010: T-Moblie has a marketing deal with the NBA and another with Dwyane Wade. The company is now connecting the dots by signing on to become the official wireless telecommunications provider of the Miami Heat and American Airlines Arena.
Financial terms of the alliance were not disclosed.
The deal includes extensive in-game features, exposure on English and Spanish radio, in-arena signage, retail promotions, social media integration and such other online elements as presenter of Heat.com's TV companion. T-Mobile will also sponsor the team's "Noche Latina" initiatives scheduled to take place during three March home games.
Wade has appeared in numerous TV spots for T-Mobile, mostly alongside Charles Barkley but also with Dwight Howard of the Orlando Magic. There was no indication at this time that Wade's new teammates, LeBron James and Chris Bosh, might appear in future marketing efforts.
"Dwyane Wade has been one of our great partners, so this new sponsorship with the Miami Heat is a natural fit," Derek Chang, director of sponsorships at T-Mobile USA, said in a statement. "We're looking forward to working with the Heat to develop exciting programs for the fans and our customers."
The alliance will activate for the Heat's home opener on Oct. 29 against the Magic. T-Mobile will host a T-Mobile Tip-Off, a pre-game celebration open to all Heat fans that have a ticket to the game, on the American Airlines Arena's East Plaza. "The T-Mobile Tip-Off event couldn't be a better way to start the new season," said Chang.
"I'm pretty certain Heat fans are already familiar with the superiority of the T-Mobile brand thanks to the numerous and memorable television commercials Dwyane Wade has starred in throughout the years," Eric Woolworth, president of The Heat Group's Business Operations, said in a statement. "Their partnership with the Hear is, thus, an entirely organic endeavor and we are thrilled to have them on board."
Wade's relationship with T-Mobile dates back to the 2006-07 season. In addition to starring in numerous commercials for T-Mobile's NBA campaign he also served as a coach for the 2009 T-Mobile Rookie Challenge & Youth Jam as part of the NBA All-Star Game activities in Phoenix. T-Mobile also has produced a D-Wade edition of its Sidekick 3.

Posted by Dean Davison on May 19, 2011
Earlier this week, our Sales Enablement team hosted a teleconference about building battle cards that better line up with sales reps' needs. If you missed the teleconference, you can download the slides and recording; we wrapped up with the following questions asked by CMI professionals:
Question No. 1: What's the best way of collecting intelligence from within our company?
CMI leaders often want to discuss how they can harvest the expertise that lies within the heads of sales reps. We at Forrester haven't seen any silver bullets, but we are documenting common experiences and planning research on the process of gathering insights and building them into compelling battle cards.
A few methods that we see across the industry include: 1) A CMI leader facilitates calls for reps to discuss issues with sales peers; 2) structured sessions with reps who recently encountered the competitor; and 3) retaining a "panel" of sales managers who meet quarterly to reassess a competitor's tactics.
Question No. 2: Is the Forrester battle card a competitive document, selling points document, both, or more?
Our recommendations do not outline a specific length, whether the battle card is integrated with product messages or customer pain points (i.e., selling-points document), or what kind of software you use to deliver battle cards to sales reps.

Indian Law Classes
Federal Indian Law
Federal Indian Law is a survey course introducing students to the special federal statutes and court decisions governing the unique legal status of Indian tribes, Indian individuals, and Indian property. The course provides an overview of the history of federal Indian policy and legal development. It introduces the student to the interpretation of treaty rights; tribal sovereignty; federal, state, and tribal jurisdiction in Indian country; special rules regarding environmental protection of resources of importance to tribes; the disposition on Indian child custody matters; Indian gaming; and other matters of increasing importance to the practice of law in areas such as Washington State where a significant tribal presence exists.
Indian Law and Natural Resources
Indian tribes have traditionally relied upon the natural resources for their personal, economic, cultural and religious well-being. Although ownership and access to those resources has been reduced over time, Indian tribes continue to own, and have rights to, a wide range of natural resources. Tribal management of natural resources have, in some instances, become models of wise use, protection and enhancement. This course will explore the basis for tribal ownership of, and rights to, natural resources; the nature and extent of those rights today; tribal managements of those resources; the interface and conflicts among tribal, state and federal agencies over the use and management of these resources; and the implication of selected federal statutes. Guest speakers will give presentations over the course of the semester.; A paper will be required in lieu of a final exam.
Contemporary Issues in Indian Law
This seminar will explore and analyze the changes that are occurring in Indian law as a result of decisions by the U.S. Supreme Court and statutes enacted by the U.S. Congress. Indian law is among the oldest and most complex areas of federal law. Unlike many other areas of federal law, it undergoes periodic change that reflects shifting federal policies, the conflicts between tribal governments and other units of government and the ever changing economic and social environment both on and off of Indian lands. The course will offer a framework for understanding the changes in Indian law through an analysis of the foundational doctrines of Indian law and the way in which the courts and the Congress are applying those doctrines to shape contemporary Indian law and policy and resolve disputes involving Indian tribes. The content of the course will reflect current developments in areas such as the trust responsibility; protection of cultural resources; religious freedom; taxation; business activities; land status; regulation of the environment; tribal, state and federal civil and criminal.
Tribal Governmental Gaming
This seminar will review the legal, political and social forces that led to the enactment of the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA) and examine the implementation of the Act. The course covers all of the major issues involved in IGRA, including: management contracts; the powers of the National Indian Gaming Commission; the classification of various gaming activities; tribal authority over gaming; the role of the states in the regulation of Indian gaming and the determination of where Indian gaming facilities may be located. Requirements for the course include informed class participation and the preparation of a research paper. The Federal Indian Law course is not a prerequisite, but it will be helpful in understanding the concepts involved in IGRA and the issues that have arisen in the implementation of the Act.
Alaska Natives and Environmental Law
Part 1: Alaska Natives under Federal Indian Law
What special rights, powers and immunities do Alaska Natives hold? Is their legal status different from Indian tribes in the lower 48? These questions will be explored as students are introduced to Federal Indian Law concepts such as tribal sovereignty, plenary federal power, immunities from state jurisdiction, fishing and hunting rights and adjudicating the welfare of Indian children. The Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANSCA) will also be touched on in discussing these concepts.
Part 2: Alaska Environmental Law
Alaska is noted for its extraordinary beauty, and for being home to many unique and unusual plants and animals. Large swaths of its land are owned by the federal government, or are held by Native Alaskan tribes. This makes environmental law in Alaska particularly interesting and important. This part of the class will explore environmental issues with a uniquely Alaskan bent, from the environmental impacts and laws concerning the drilling for oil in the arctic tundra (ANWR), to preservation of unique salmon runs and endangered wildlife. The class will begin with a discussion of the Alaskan environment and major issues concerning that environment. The class will then have a review of important environmental laws, paying particular attention to the environmental and natural resources laws that have particular effect in Alaska, such as the National Environmental Policy Act, the Endangered Species Act, and laws governing the use of federal lands. The class will also examine aspects of Administrative Law, International treaties that deal with resource use in Alaska, and laws governing Native Alaskans and Native Alaskan lands that have an effect on environmental law in Alaska. The class will end with a particular focus on the current issues of drilling for oil in the Arctic Wildlife National Refuge, and the future of commercial fishing in Alaska.
Indian Trusts and Estates Clinic
This three credit integrative clinic is open to students who have taken, or are currently enrolled in, the Trusts and Estates course. Students work in teams of two and will represent a low-income Native American person in an estate planning matter involving both their personal property and their interests in federal trust lands in the preparation of wills, powers of attorney and health care directives. Student instruction is held in conjunction with the Trust and Estates Clinic students, with breakout sessions covering the Federal Law and Tribal Probate Codes that govern the estate of the Native American client. In addition, student teams must maintain office hours in the Clinic offices for a total of four hours per week. Office hours must be scheduled on Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday between 1 and 8 p.m. This clinic is available as an evening clinic. Prerequisite or co-requisite: Trusts and Estates. Federal Indian Law is recommended, but not required. Students must meet the Law Clinic's conflict of interest rules.
Tribal Government Business Law (Available in 2012)
This course provides students with an understanding of the complex issues involved when Indian tribes exercise their authority as entrepreneurs. The course examines the legal issues that arise in the areas of finance, taxation, dispute resolution, environmental law, labor and employment law, construction law, intellectual property law, insurance, government contracting, corporate structures, energy and natural resources, gaming, due diligence, Sarbanes-Oxley and criminal law. The course is taught by practitioners with extensive expertise as well as a variety of faculty from the law school.
Indian Wills Clinic
The Indian Wills Clinic began in 2006 in an effort to determine if it would be a viable model for providing estate planning services to individuals and to determine if there was interest on the part of law students in this kind of clinical work. Four student positions were allocated to the Indian Wills Clinic from the positions available under the general wills clinic. In the initial year, four students applied for those positions. Thereafter, there has been a waiting list of students for these positions, clearly establishing that there is a significant student interest in the Indian Wills Clinic. At the same time, two Indian clients have been served each semester with the students working in teams of two.
The Indian Wills Clinic provides a viable means of delivering estate planning services to Indian people. It is hoped that it will be expanded and established as a full clinical program and that this model can be carried to other law schools with active clinical programs to provide estate planning services to Indian people at no cost.

Hey guys,
I'm new here and wanted to introduce myself. I've been in the 501st for three years now as a Sandtrooper in the NER. This is currently my only set of armor, but I have been interested in building an ESB Boba Fett for a while and the time has come to start. Any guidance that you guys could give me on getting started would be greatly appreciated. My number is TD2298 for all of my fellow 501st Imperials here. :)

I'm way beyond the point of being too to even guess at who the killer is. Although I suppose this passage from Reservoir Dogs is appropriate to the situation:


text:
Using electronic devices to keep surveillance over a person can implicate the investigated individual's Fourth Amendment rights. One form of electronic surveillance developed by law enforcement results in attaching a "bug" to a person's telephone line or to a phone booth and recording the person's conversation. Courts have held that this practice constitutes a search under the Fourth Amendment because the Fourth Amendment protects an individual's privacy rights for situations in which the person has a legitimate expectation of privacy. Courts have held that when having a telephone conversation, one would not expect an unknown third-party government agent to listen in on the conversation. A person has a legitimate expectation of privacy if the person honestly and genuinely believes the location under search to be private and if the reasonable person under the same or similar circumstances would believe the location to be private as well. Therefore, law enforcement has more leeway when intercepting communications in a public place than when the interception occurs in a secluded environment. The courts have given law enforcement the freedom to record conversation during jail visits, provided that the monitoring reasonably relates to prison security.
Two general categories of electronic communication surveillance exist. Wire communications refer to the transfer of the human voice from one point to another via use of a wire, cable, or similar device. When law enforcement "taps" a wire, they use some mechanical or electrical device that gives them outside access to the vocal transfer, thus disclosing the contents of the conversation. Electronic communications refer to the transfer of information, data, or sounds from one location to another over a device designed for electronic transmissions. This type of communication includes email or information uploaded from a private computer to the internet.
Warrant Requirement
Because of their similarity to searches and seizures, the Fourth Amendment Warrant Clause applies to electronic surveillance as well. Obtaining a warrant for electronic surveillance requires showing probable cause, describing in particularity the conversation to be intercepted, providing a specific time period for the interception of the communications device, and noticing the property owner unless law enforcement can show exigent circumstances.
As with ordinary searches and seizures, exigent circumstances may serve as grounds for law enforcement to dispense with first obtaining a warrant. If law enforcement encounters a situation threatening a person's life, a conspiracy threatening the national security, or a conspiracy suggesting organized crime, then law enforcement may proceed without first acquiring a warrant.
Domestic Surveillance Legislation
In 1986 Congress passed extensive regulations regarding electronic surveillance and wiretapping in the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA). Courts have interpreted the Act as allowing magistrates and federal judges to grant law enforcement officers warrants to enter private homes in order to "bug" the home's means of electronic communication. Despite numerous constitutional challenges, the courts have repeatedly upheld these provisions.
The ECPA also provides remedy for those individuals victimized by unlawful electronic surveillance. If an individual uses a practice in contravention of the ECPA, the victim may bring suit for compensatory damages, punitive damages, and equitable relief, if equitable relief can rectify the harm. The plaintiff may only bring suit against the individual who performed the recording; plaintiffs may not sue any third-party that receives a copy of the recording and subsequently distributes it.
The Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act of 2006 mandates the telecommunication companies' cooperation when law enforcement engages in a wiretap. The cooperation involves giving law enforcement access to the systems and facilities necessary to track the communication of one subscriber without infringing on the privacy of another subscriber.
These two acts do not preempt the numerous state statutes dealing with wiretapping and electronic surveillance.
Foreign Surveillance Legislation
Case law is split regarding the constitutionality of wiretapping's use on foreign nationals for obtaining foreign intelligence; courts agree, however, that wiretapping for the purpose of domestic security does not pass constitutional muster.
In 1978, Congress passed the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA). The Act lowers the evidentiary showing needed to obtain a surveillance warrant with regard to foreign intelligence gathering and describes other procedures relating to physical and electronic surveillance relating to foreign intelligence. The Act's provisions also applies to American citizens suspected of espionage.
FISA's provisions permit electronic surveillance in two situations. First, FISA authorizes the President to use warrantless wiretapping if it relates to protecting the United States against a potential grave attack, sabotage, or espionage, on the that the government does not tap any U.S. citizen. Second, federal law enforcement may obtain a warrant for foreign intelligence taps that do not meet the criteria of the first situation. To obtain the warrant, the FISA court must find probable cause that the person to be tapped constitutes a foreign power or the agent of a foreign power and that a foreign power uses or will use the place to be tapped. FISA also created its own court system, housed within the Department of Justice. Known as "FISA courts" they deal exclusively with foreign intelligence warrant applications, orders directing compliance, and challenges to compliance orders.
Following the attacks on the World Trade Center in September of 2001, the Bush Administration ordered the National Security Agency to implement the use of domestic warrantless wiretapping to prevent future terrorist attacks. Some politicians and media outlets have scrutinized the policies as violative of the Fourth Amendment and FISA.
In July of 2007, President George W. Bush signed into law the Protect America Act of 2007 (PAA), which amended FISA for a period of 180 days. At the expiration of those 180 days, Congress would have to decide whether to renew the legislation. The PAA further loosened the warrant requirement by permitting wireless tapping of any phone calls originating in or being received in a foreign country. As of July 2008, Congress has not renewed the PAA.
The USA PATRIOT Act
Following the attacks on the World Trade Center in September of 2001, Congress enacted the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 (Patriot Act). The Patriot Act modified portions of numerous electronic communications laws, including the ECPA and FISA, expanding the authority of federal law enforcement to combat terrorism.
Among the law's significant surveillance-related provisions, the Patriot Act discarded FISA's requirement that the President only conduct warrantless wiretaps against non-U.S. citizen, although it still protected U.S. citizens conducting First Amendment-related activities. Additionally, the Patriot Act provided more time for conducting surveillance to law enforcement officers who had obtained FISA warrants. Another provision changed the acquisition of stored voicemails from falling under the more-stringent surveillance laws to falling under ordinary search and seizure laws.
Although controversial, roving wiretaps also became legalized under the Patriot Act. A roving wiretap occurs when a court grants a surveillance warrant without naming the communications carrier and other third parties involved in the tap. The FBI and intelligence gathering communities find these necessary because terrorists have the ability to change computers, email accounts, or cellular telephones quickly upon reading an order and learning that the government had tapped their device. This provision concerned civil liberties activities because they felt it violated the Particularity Clause of the Fourth Amendment.
Because the initial Patriot Act included a sunset provision for December 31, 2005, Congress had to consider renewing the legislation in early 2006. In light of federal courts having struck down provisions of the Act as unconstitutional, Congress made certain substantive changes to the legislation. Nevertheless, in March of 2006, Congress passed and President Bush signed the amended renewal legislation into law.

Calculate where a straight line meets a circle
Thank you so much to the editor who is behind this success of this website. It is more than outstanding. I give it an A********* so many stars are not enough. Thanks again.
Outstanding website!
I was looking to design my own PowerPoints for some revision sessions but found it time consuming. I then started to browse the net when I came across this wonderful site. Topics are clearly graded and I could pick and choose the PowerPoint that I wanted to use with my students. Thanks!! It is fantastic resource!
This is one of the most useful free websites I have come across. The topics are clearly organised and levelled/graded. Most of the resources provided are really good and my classes really enjoy the starters of the day. I really appreciate all the hard work that has been put into the resources.
This is an excellent site with so many useful, fun resources to use. Almost feel guilty for using resources that someone has spent so much time creating so a big thank you, much appreciated by myself and my students.
This web site is a great resource. It makes my job a lot easier. Well done!
I really like the structure of your site and am planning to link in your resources to our new schemes of work. I really appreciate the hard work you have put into this.
This website is truly brilliant! I love the way the topics are levelled and there are so many good resources! Thanks for sharing!
Your site is great. It really helps people like me who dont have the compuer skills to produce Powerpoints. I have found so many useful things for the classroom. I cant think how I managed without it.
This is always my first place to look for PowerPoints and other resources. It makes planning so much easier. Thank you.

The monthly contest will continue this month.
As a reminder, please do not enter the contest unless you have an idea for a topic next month. Many winners have said "I didnt expect to win so I'm not sure what I should do for a topic." Have it in your head already or DO NOT enter the contest because if you win you MUST come up with something.
I must receive an IM with the new topic at the beginning of the month. I will not start the new month till I have that topic IMed to me so please make sure you do this. If you're traveling or going to be unavailable at the time the contest ends, make sure you give me an IM before then or make sure someone else can contact me.
These rules arent hard, please be prepared if you are going to participate.
Whatever the winner wants the topic to be, that is it. Do not start polls or have questions about what would be good. Send me the topic so we can move forward...period.
I dont have the time to watch over or organize this, however, I will post the sticky for each assignment. You guys must self regulate and come up with your own ideas.
At the end of the month, the winner will choose the new topic and let me know via IM or email (email@example.com) and I will update the assignment thread.
Please note that from March till October I am extremely busy and travel a lot so there may be times where I will not be able to hold perfectly to the schedule getting things posted, please bear with me, I'll do my best.
If this becomes a problem, or too much babysitting is involved, I'll unsticky it and you guys will be on your own. Please report any problems or issues directly to me, keep all assignment related questions to the person in charge that month.
1. Photo must be taken DURING the assignment time period. That means shot after the first posting of the assignment and before the deadline. This encourages you to go out and shoot with the assignment in mind. Please keep exif intact so that others can see it. If you use a host that does not retain the exif, please link back to the original photo at the host site. Do not use "save for web" to save images as that strips the exif info, use the regular "save as" command to insure it remains intact.
2. Basic Photoshop/editing is allowed (levels, exposure, saturation, sharpening, etc), but no complete altering of the photo/subject, as in, no fake blurs, no HDR, no dropping one subject into a different background, that kind of stuff. Converting to B&W and selective color is ok.
3. No borders or frames on the photos. This tends to detract from or unfairly add to a photo and the judging is on the photo itself, not how nicely you can present it.
4. No nudity, illegal activity, implied illegal activity, or anything else that would normally not be allowed in this forum should be posted.
5. Post entries in this thread, do not make a separate thread for each entry. You have until midnight PST on Tuesday April 22nd to post your entry.
6. The assignment thread is for posting photos ONLY, no discussion until voting starts and all ideas/questions should be directed to the person who is in charge of the assignment that month.
7. On the 23rd, use THIS thread to post critiques and who you think the winner should be. Until a better alternative is found, the person in charge of the month will tally the votes and declare a winner. Any entry deemed NOT on topic may be left out of the poll at the discretion of person in charge of month. Voting will last till the last day of the month when a winner will be chosen and the new assignment will start. So you should be ready to take over for the next month and have a topic in mind that you can send to me immediately.
Everyone is encouraged to participate regardless of skill level. With or without an SLR. It will help you grow as a photographer to see how others perspectives on a similar subject.
Person in charge this month is INDAHAUS.
Rust is the topic for this month. Do with it what you will.
Previous topics have been:
april- reflections
may- life's simple pleasures

SPRINGFIELD, Mass. - Shooting a season-best 50.8 percent from the floor and making 11 3-pointers, the No. 7 seed Canisius women's basketball team defeated No. 10 seed Saint Peter's 79-58 in the first round of the 2013 MAAC Championship in the MassMutual Center on Thursday afternoon.
Canisius advances to the quarterfinals where the Golden Griffins will face No. 2 seed Iona College. Tipoff on Friday morning is set for 9:30 a.m.
Nine Golden Griffins played at least 12 minutes in the game with six players scoring at last eight points. Senior Ashley Durham had 15 points, making four of her five 3-point attempts. Junior Jen Lennox had 10 points in 13 minutes off the bench. Senior Ashley Wilkes had eight points and eight rebounds while sophomore Kayla Hoohuli had eight points and seven rebounds. Sophomore Brooke Angelos matched her season high with seven assists.
"We had to take Saint Peter's out of its rhythm early in the game when they were making shots, and I felt our zone did just that," Canisius coach Terry Zeh said. "We made some timely 3-pointers, and hopefully can keep shooting the ball well in this tournament."
"It is important to have depth and for everyone to be ready to go in a conference tournament, and I felt we were able to utilize that today."
Saint Peter's (2-28) made seven of its first 10 shots, taking a 16-15 lead less than six minutes into the game. Canisius would hold the Peacocks to 6-of-20 from the floor for the rest of the half. The Griffs created some separation with a nine-point spurt, turning a 24-24 tie into a 33-24 lead. Durham and junior Jen Morabito each drained 3-pointers during the run, which was capped by a jumper from Lennox. Junior Jamie Ruttle scored the last five points of the half for the Griffs, who took a 40-29 lead into the locker room.
The Griffs scored five quick points, getting a putback from Ruttle and a 3-pointer from Hoohuli, to take a 45-29 lead just over a minute into the second half. Saint Peter's would never get the deficit to single digits the rest of the way, as Canisius pulled away with a 14-3 run, getting 3-pointers from Morabito and Hoohuli as well as two baskets from freshman Crystal Porter.
Kristal Edwards led Saint Peter's with 17 points while Jesika Holmes had 10 points. The Peacocks ended up shooting 37.1 percent from the field on the day after the 7-of-10 start.
Notes: Canisius and Saint Peter's met in the first round of the tournament for the third time in the last four years. Canisius now holds a 3-2 lead in five postseason meetings between the teams... The 40 first-half points for the Griffs were one off their season high of 41 at Long Beach on Dec. 20... Canisius has won a postseason game for the 12th time in the last 14 years... Canisius had 20 assists on 30 made baskets... The 79 points for the Griffs matched a season-high (79 at Iona on Feb. 16)... The 24-point win was the largest of the season for the Griffs... Canisius shot 50 percent in a game for the first time since Feb. 2, 2012, against Loyola... Freshman Emily Weber scored her first collegiate points with two baskets in the game... The Griffs also made 11 3-pointers this season at Loyola on Jan. 24... Canisius improved to 10-7 this season when nine or more players play double-digit minutes... Freshman Jasmine Mungo dressed for the first time since Jan. 12, playing four minutes... Freshman Tiahana Mills played nine minutes after missing the previous three games.

The latest MatchDay Programme is now available for all visitors to Arsenal.com.
The programme, for tonight's game against Newcastle, features an interview with veteran defender Lee Dixon, who talks about coming to grips with the longest injury of his career.
"I've been out for four months now and it's been an absolute nightmare", says Lee. "It's a real test of your character."
But the legandary right back explains that he's not let his time on the sidelines get him down; "I've certainly got my appetite, it's still there.
"It waned a little bit in the middle of the injury because I was out so long, but I can see a bit of light now and my enthusiasm is definitely back."
The programme also profiles hot young striker Jo Osei-Kuffour, former midfielder Peter Nicholas and Junichi Inamoto's translator!
That's in addition to our regular interviews with Arsène Wenger and Tony Adams, and a special look at the new stadium at Ashburton Grove.

AMES, Iowa – There are new opportunities to harvest corn stover in two regions of Iowa – near Nevada in central Iowa and near Dubuque in eastern Iowa. Iowa State University Extension and Outreach will host two meetings, one in each part of the state, to address emerging opportunities related to stover harvesting for the biomass feedstock needs of local industries.
The central Iowa meeting will be held Feb. 28 at the Iowa Arboretum near Madrid, Iowa. This meeting is in collaboration with DuPont and will look at the use of corn stover in cellulosic ethanol production. The eastern Iowa meeting will be held on March 6 at the 4-H Building at the Dubuque County Fairgrounds, Dubuque, Iowa. The eastern Iowa meeting is in collaboration with JELD-WEN Fiber of Iowa to discuss use of corn stover as a fiber material. Both meetings start at 12:45 p.m.
Stover harvesting can impact economic, agronomic and water quality production factors. The meetings will address many of the positives and negatives of stover harvesting and discuss how stover harvesting can be managed within corn production. Crop producers, land owners, crop consultants, agronomists, service providers and others with an interest in stover harvest and its removal from farm fields are encouraged to attend.
Iowa State University Extension and Outreach meeting speakers include: John Sawyer and Antonio Mallarino, soil fertility specialists; Mahdi Al-Kaisi, soil management specialist; Chad Hart and William Edwards, agricultural marketing specialists; Matt Helmers and Kapil Arora, agricultural engineering specialists; Mark Licht and Virgil Schmitt, field agronomists; and Kelvin Leibold, farm management specialist. Industry speakers on the agenda include: Dr. David Ertl, technology commercialization manager, Iowa Corn Growers Association; Dennis Penland, DuPont business development manager; Andy Heggenstaller, agronomy research manager, DuPont; and Gardner Lance, general manager, JELD-WEN Fiber of Iowa.
A noon lunch will be sponsored by industry partners prior to the start of the meeting at no cost to the participants, however pre-registration is required. Industry representatives will be available to meet with participants during lunch and at the close of the meeting.
Registration forms for the Feb. 28 Boone County meeting are available from the Boone County Extension Office by calling 515-432-3882, or online at http://www.extension.iastate.edu/boone/.

AMES, IOWA — With funding from Iowa Department of Natural Resources, Iowa Learning Farms developed "Watershed-based Community Assessments," a toolkit to guide local communities with their watershed improvement projects.
Effective watershed-based community assessments allow watershed groups to develop goals, outreach and education regarding water quality challenges based on the values of the people living in the watershed. Finding out how and what local watershed residents think about their watershed can go a long way to improve the environmental literacy of Iowans and improve water quality.
Simply asking residents of the watershed is a straightforward way to estimate the knowledge, needs and will of a community. Knowing residents' opinions about water, their understanding of water quality, satisfaction with local water quality, and the methods that could best be used to increase their scientific knowledge of water quality is important to having a successful water quality improvement project. This also will help build residents' capacity to participate in an improvement plan.
About the publication
"Watershed-based Community Assessments" includes step-by-step instructions on how to write and send a survey to assess residents' attitudes and knowledge of their watershed and water quality and directions on how to process and analyze survey results. Also included are guides on how to conduct one-on-one interviews, facilitate listening sessions and how to analyze the outcomes from these meetings.
Another section includes how to create a "social map" of the watershed community. A social map is a visual, geographic representation of important places within a community. This map will help coordinators find what places and spaces that watershed citizens deem valuable and where the best potential places are to reach residents.
The final sections of this toolkit offer tips to holding successful watershed improvement outreach and education events. These tips are composite examples based on successful watershed projects in Iowa and experiences of the Iowa Learning Farms.
The toolkit is available on the Iowa Learning Farms website (in PDF format) for downloading. The sample water quality survey is on the website in Word format so that it can be adapted. Go to the "Resources" tab on the ILF website, www.extension.iastate.edu/ilf, to find the Watershed-based Community Assessment. A hard copy is on file in each county's Soil and Water Conservation District office as well.
Why assessment is important
There are 446 impaired water bodies in Iowa listed on the 303(d) impaired waters list, named after section 303(d) of the federal Clean Water Act. A water body gets on this list when it fails to meet water quality standards, meaning these waters are unfit for their designated beneficial use. It is generally up to the local communities to organize watershed improvement projects and work to improve their water quality.
Local communities are helped in their projects through funding and technical assistance from the Iowa Department of Natural Resources, Environmental Protection Agency (Section 319) and Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship. However, without citizen "buy-in" to local watershed improvement plans, it doesn't matter how much funding or technical support they have, their water quality improvement project will probably not be successful.
Assessing a watershed community's strengths and weaknesses is an important first step in planning and implementing an effective watershed improvement project. By taking the time to learn about the local watershed community's issues, project officials can discover new opportunities for increasing community involvement and individual commitment that will help ensure success of the watershed improvement project.

2) make a version with the door partially open and Bender shoving something back inside
3) make a version showing the inner workings of Bender with a watch stuck in the gears, like the episode when they go to the Slurm factory.

BARRY White... Yeah, that would make more sense. For some reason, when I read that button, I was thinking, "Vader dialogue in Betty White's voice... heh" I think it was the Shatner button that threw me off that way. ;)

Nail Wheels of New Color Club Collections
Oh yeah, I definitely have three favorites!
The photo below shows the colors in the Backstage Pass Collection. Massive glitter, not only in the amount, but also in the size. The surface of these feels waaaaaaay smoother than I imagined. Fame & Fortune looks like Massini/Studio M Slammin' Red (aka Forsythe Cosmetics aka Color Club) on steroids!
The Foiled Collection shades all have metallic/foil finishes that look to be smooth and streak-free, which is always a relief.
Some of these collections are starting to show up now at various eTailers, and there are two more collections that I'm aware of which should be out in the coming months from Color Club. You can view all five of these collections here.

Arsène Wenger will continue to rotate his squad as fixture congestion begins to bite.
The Frenchman takes his team to Stoke on Saturday for their fifth game in a fortnight and the first of eight fixtures in the month of November. Wenger has tinkered with his line-up in recent weeks and will continue that policy at the Britannia Stadium.
"We have to a little bit," Wenger told Arsenal TV Online. "It is at the moment rotation without being detrimental to the balance of the team. We play again on Wednesday and then on Saturday morning against Manchester United."
Injuries and suspensions can force a manager's hand when it comes to team selection. So what else does Wenger consider when he picks his side during busy periods?
"First of all you look at the positions in the team where people have to put more mental or physical effort in." explained the Frenchman.
"Then you look at the capacity of the players to repeat, the players who are injury prone more than others. There is a lot of things coming in to your mind when you make these kind of decisions. How much has been given in the last game, all that."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

The Federal Budget Challenge is the online version of Concord's Principles & Priorities exercise. Created in collaboration with California-based non-profit Next 10, The Challenge is a truly interactive game in which players must think and act like U.S. congressmen.
In this online budget simulation, users work through different policy categories. Within each category, users must choose which spending and tax policies fit their preferences while being mindful of budgetary effects. Once the user accepts or rejects a policy, the program reflects how that decision would alter the projected 10-year budget deficit. Are you up to the challenge?

Thomas Vermaelen is relishing the chance to play in one of the biggest games of any footballer's career.
The Belgian centre back sat out the weekend trip to Birmingham after earning a one-match suspension but he is expected to return to face Barcelona in the Champions League on Wednesday night.
Vermaelen represented Ajax in Europe before joining Arsenal last summer but he has never tasted an occasion as big as this. And, typically, the 24-year-old cannot wait to get started.
"It is one of the biggest games you can play in, against one of the best sides in the world," he said at a pre-match press conference.
"However, it's important to play as a team and hopefully we can show how good we are. You do not have to be nervous or look at individual players. They have good players, but you also have to play as a team.
"We have to be mentally strong and we have showed that in the past this season. If you want to win the Champions League, you have to beat the best teams."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

text: MTA seeks pro-education budget amendments MTA members are being asked to reach out to their state representatives and urge them to support legislative amendments that would help improve the proposed House Ways and Means Committee budget for the sake of Massachusetts students and families. Contact Your Representatives! The committee's proposal, released on April 11, calls for level-funding for the state's community colleges, state universities and UMass and seeks nearly a $1 million cut in scholarships for students. The MTA is actively pursuing amendments to increase funding for the higher education system, as well as for scholarships, by 5 percent. Funding for public colleges and universities has been cut drastically in recent years, and the money is needed to ensure both quality and affordability for students. The Ways and Means budget also includes an alternative to Governor Deval Patrick's plan to reorganize the state's community college system. The MTA is supporting efforts to give faculty and staff a seat at the table and a strong voice in decisions about the mission and future of all 15 community colleges in the Commonwealth. The committee's $32.3 billion spending plan covers the upcoming fiscal year, which begins on July 1. It includes $4.15 billion in Chapter 70 state aid for K-12 education, which represents a $164 million increase in funding over the current fiscal year. Broken down, this would provide every public school district with an increase of at least $40 per student. Click here to send a message to your state representative urging him or her to support all the MTA-backed amendments. They include: A proposed 5 percent increase in state funding for public higher education: Amendment 814, filed by Representative Sean Garballey (D-Arlington). A proposed 5 percent increase in state funding for scholarships for students: Amendment 663, filed by Representative Tom Sannicandro (D-Ashland), co-chair of the Joint Committee on Higher Education. A proposal to provide a seat at the table and a strong voice for MTA higher education members in decisions about the future of the state's community colleges: Amendment 440, filed by Representative Martin Walsh (D-Boston). A call for providing funding through the Gateway Cities initiative, which is aimed at closing the student achievement gap in many urban school districts: Amendment 471, filed by Representative Tony Cabral (D-New Bedford). Proposed funding for a labor-management collaborative focused on improving student achievement: Amendments 311 and 315, filed by Representative Cheryl Coakley-Rivera (D-Springfield). A proposal to adopt language specifying the mission of the state's 15 community colleges and include it in state law: Amendment 734, filed by Representative Sannicandro. A proposal to clarify the funding formula for community colleges: Amendment 473, filed by Representative Sannicandro.Debate on the Ways and Means Committee budget will begin during the week of April 23.

Cook, Vizcaino return to mound
Cook, Vizcaino return to mound
"It was real hard," said Cook, who couldn't recall missing any kind of start for an arm issue since 1999. "I told 'Doogie' [head athletic trainer Keith Dugger] I contemplated overnight whether I wanted to come in and say anything. But I figured we still have a month until the season started. I'm not getting ready for a Spring Training game. I'm trying to get ready for the season."
Good move.
Cook, the Rockies' No. 2 pitcher, returned to the mound Wednesday morning for the first time since March 3 and threw 42 pitches in three scoreless innings of a Minor League game at Hi Corbett Field. Also, righty reliever Luis Vizcaino, the team's top offseason acquisition, pitched a scoreless inning after being sidelined since March 4 with elbow inflammation.
It was a sigh of relief for the Rockies, who have much invested in the pair.
Cook has a four-year deal that will pay him $34.5 million -- $30 million of which was added after the Rockies picked up a $4.5 million option. Vizcaino is under a two-year, $7.5 million contract, under which he can earn a third year at $4 million based on games pitched.
Cook yielded four hits and struck out three against hitters most likely ticketed for Double-A Tulsa. Eric Young Jr. and Cory Wimberly -- speedy, front-of-the-order types -- knocked singles through the infield. Lino Garcia doubled off the left-center-field wall. Phillip Cuadrado also singled. But Cook stayed in the strike zone (27 strikes) and used his defense.
Most importantly, he felt no pain. Cook felt he caused the original soreness by slipping into a bad arm slot. He corrected the problem Sunday during a bullpen session, with special front office assistant Marcel Lachemann watching his mechanics.
Have a question about the Rockies?
E-mail your query to MLB.com Rockies beat reporter Thomas Harding for possible inclusion in a future Inbox column. Letters may be edited for brevity, length and/or content.
"They're Double-A, Triple-A guys, that have been playing baseball for awhile. They know what they're doing. They weren't swinging at everything. It was nice to be able to face hitters and get back into a game situation. You get out of it what you put into it. I tried to treat it as much like a regular game as possible."
Vizcaino, the primary right-handed setup man to closer Manny Corpas, had one strikeout and gave up a double to Doug Bernier, who was thrown out at third on Young's relay throw from second base. He threw 11 pitches, eight strikes, to three batters, using his sinker, slider and split-finger pitches.
"No pain," said Vizcaino, who said he can pitch again Friday or Saturday.

I have one school that told me I could work there, but the pay isn't very good, so I was going to look for more schools in Merida. The problem is that I can't find many schools listed in Merida online. I know there are a good deal of them, but i don't see any listed when I look for them online. Do you have any idea where I would go to get a listing of schools and their contact information in Merida? Please let me know. Thanks a lot.

Imagine attending Mass in Nazareth, taking a boat ride to Capernaum and seeing the Roman amphitheater and aqueducts in Caesarea. Soon, a group of University of St. Thomas students and faculty will not have to imagine it.
Sister Paula Jean Miller, FSE, will guide St. Thomas study abroad students on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land in May. Sister Paula Jean, founder and director of Catholic Studies and professor of theology at UST, was certified as a Spiritual Leader of Pilgrimages from The Assembly of Catholic Ordinaries of the Holy Land, through the Episcopal Commission of Christian Pilgrimages, in September. She looks forward to leading another group in the Holy Land.
"I love introducing others to the Holy Land, and it is particularly exciting when it is couched in an academic context so that students prepare for the experience at a more intense level," Sister Paula Jean said.
Sister Paula Jean led a group of students during Christmas break in 2005, and most recently, led 19 Franciscan Sisters of the Eucharist in December.
The study abroad course, THEO 4393/CS 4393 Mapping the Holy Land, is an interdisciplinary study of the Holy Land's archeological, historical, cultural and theological core. The course includes seven preparatory sessions, February through May, followed by an intensive "walking classroom" each day in the Holy Land, May 22-June 1.
"Father Dempsey Rosales-Acosta from the UST Theology Department will be the chaplain for the pilgrimage, so the liturgies will be scripturally and theologically rich. Long ago, I learned that the best way to come to know the Holy Land is through your feet, as well as your head, so every day will be a 'walking classroom,' replete with hiking."
Guest faculty instructors for the course include Dr. Charles Stewart, assistant professor of art history, for "Archeology in the Holy Land," the Rev. Dempsey Rosales-Acosta, assistant professor of theology and chaplain of the trip, for "The Theological Meaning of Jerusalem," Dr. Richard Sindelar, assistant professor of international studies, for "The Political Situation – Israel and Palestine," and Dr. Irving Kelter, professor of history, for "The History of the State of Israel."
There is still one space available for the May Holy Land Abroad. Contact S. Paula Jean at firstname.lastname@example.com.
For more information on future study abroad experiences, email email@example.com or call 713-525-3530.

Arsène Wenger says he is ready for another 15 years at Arsenal if the Club will have him.
The Frenchman was an unknown quantity when he arrived in north London back in 1996. The decade and a half that followed would become the most successful in Arsenal's illustrious history.
Wenger is 62 in October and his side have endured a tough start to the current campaign but he is more than happy carry on.
"I am up for [five, 10 or 15 years]," he said. "But it depends first of all on my club. Do they want me to stay?
"Then it depends on my health as well because that is something that you consider when you get to my level. It demands a lot of energy to win football games."
Wenger's Arsenal have spent the last 14 years in the top four and, as a consequence, the Champions League. However it has been a much-publicised six seasons since they won a trophy. The manager is continuing his search but his strategy remains admirably long-term.
"I miss winning titles very much," said Wenger. "You only have one way [to solve it] - fight on and win again.
"But I feel what is very important for us is to transform this club from a top-level club into one that has a fantastic future potential and with values that we think are important in the game.
"Also there is the style of play we have and the way we behave to develop young players and give a chance to people who deserve it in life. For me that is as well very important in the history of the Club."
Team news: Tottenham: Gallas (calf), Dawson (Achilles), Huddlestone (ankle), Krancjar (doubt - ankle), Pienaar (doubt - groin).
Arsenal: Gervinho (doubt - muscular), Walcott (doubt - knee), Koscielny (ankle), Djourou (muscular), Wilshere, Vermaelen, Diaby (all ankle)
