Coming soon to the Archdiocese of Vancouver: Deacons!
This is always an exciting time for an diocesan church, and yet it is also a time of some confusion and uncertainty. Ultimately, it is a time of extraordinary faith and hope: the willingness to set out into waters that are as yet uncharted in that diocese, the recognition that a new group of ordained ministers who are not priests will be entering the official service of the People of God, and the courage to face whatever challenges develop as they happen with the conviction of the ongoing presence and action of the Holy Spirit to guide them through it.
As I type these words, I'm sitting at an airport gate in California awaiting my flights to Vancouver. I've been invited by Archbishop Miller to come to Vancouver and spend two days with the priests of the Archdiocese talking about the diaconate. I'll also be spending some time with the brand new group of aspirants to the diaconate, as they meet with the priests on Tuesday evening. I'm honored to be a part of the "launching" of this new adventure in the life of their local Church.
Please keep all of them (and your humble blogger!) in your prayers.

Not only will they have deacons, but--as evidenced by their choice of consultant--they will have the deacons Vatican II envisioned. Beautiful! (And worth waiting for.)ReplyDelete
Great news, especially at a time when some dioceses seem to be ramping down the diaconate. Kudos to Abp Miller for the consultative way he is going about this. Bringing you in to talk to the priests and aspirants and then bringing those two groups together. Simple, yet brilliant. Deacons: gift, not threat! May God bless your journey!ReplyDelete
It is really impressive that the Archbishop is going about this the way he is — heeding the archdiocesan synod and consulting others, then preparing the presbyterate for it.ReplyDelete
word verification: fighta — huh?
Go for it....!ReplyDelete
Been to Vancouver once. Beautiful city. Now I have a reason to go there again!ReplyDelete

It is very encoraging to see the church grow in that area. Kudos and prayers to all involved in the process!!ReplyDelete

The University of Wisconsin Oshkosh Journalism Department announces it will be changing its name to "JustinBieber Department" to reflect the teen-sensation's increasing social media presence and consistent trending nature on the popular microblogging site, Twitter, as of April 1, 2010.
Current students are encouraged to refer to the former "J-Dept" as the "JB-Dept." The change will also impact spring commencement. Soon-to-be grads will now officially major in "JustinBieber," with their respective emphases remaining the same.
"Although some people may call us crazy, we fervently believe that Justin Bieber is revolutionizing Journalism, the media and the world as we know it," said Mike Cowling, department chair. "…I really hope he retweets this article."
JustinBieber department professors will be making drastic changes in their curriculum in response to the change. Each course is set to begin with an "ode to Bieber," which may include students saying their favorite aspect of Bieber, a 2-minute reflection on his accomplishments, a group Tweet-about-Bieber session or a class sing-a-long to any of his timeless classics.
"I for one am pumped about this change," said Kari Robinson, a senior in the JustinBieber department. "I just can't get enough of him! I sing his music everywhere! Oh golly!"
For more information on the name switch, visit the JustinBieber department on Facebook or connect with them on Twitter.

David & Luan Volcom Tour Photos
Check out photos of David, Luan and the rest of the Volcom posse from the recent Costa Rica/Colombia tour. Crowds swarmed every demo and signing, hammers landed hard and the voyage was fuckin' killer! Photos courtesy of Volcom.
Colombia Photos & Costa Rica Photos
On The Road With Flip part 4
Final days of the tour were the days of glory! We headed north to Sacramento with 2 skate days and a signing at Ground Zero and demo at B-Street Park (Watch the video our NHS homie Brad Oates made). Rain came back like a bitch on the weekend, but we managed to hit some street and then skated the Epic Skatepark in Sacto. Bowl bonanza, mini gap annihilation, sketchy TM and Bowman skate maneuvers, more fake birthday celebrations, street gangs and beyond… On the final day of the tour, after the B-Street demo, we all went for dinner and just when everyone thought the tour was over the best prank of all time was had!! This was retaliation against Luan and Andrew Langi for some poo pillow and bed piss attacks a week prior (Flip tour show coming soon). All in all the shit storm was fun as hell and the entire crew had a blast! Thanks to everyone that made it out to the signings and demos and stay tuned for next year's carnage… Enjoy the photos and video.
Big thank you to the sponsors (Monster, Vans, Volcom, The Skateboard Mag, Fuel TV, SHRED & Chipotle) and all the shops that supported us on this tour.
On The Road With Flip part 3
Next stop on the tour was the Zumiez signing in Visalia, CA. Hundreds of people showed up chanting "FLIP," the mall security didn't let people take photos in the mall (dicks as usual) and the crew had an epic time eating Apple Annie's breakfast feast in the morning. After we left Visalia we headed north to Santa Cruz to visit NHS, raid the warehouse (thanks Jordan!) and have a signing at the Santa Cruz Boardroom. This was where the crowd chaos really got to high levels and the crew was fucking stoked! Hats off to the people of Santa Cruz. You guys kill it!! Andy Roy and Jason Jessee even had a chance to stop by and say what's up. On Friday we made our way to Redwood City to skate Langi's local skatepark. Rain was upon us, but luckily we got in a solid session before the storm hit and got to chow down on 100 Chipotle burritos while Flip flow rider, Auby Taylor tried bs tail kickflip out on the gnarly tranny wall. Big thanks to Zumiez, NHS and the Santa Cruz Boardroom. Stay tuned for part 4…
On The Road With Flip part 2
Next stop on the Flip West Coast Represent tour was the Simi Valley demo. On this stop we had Dave Duncan MC'ing and AVE joining us on the tour as a guest skater. From this point forward the voyage started getting into some rad and weird territory with the late night hijinx and pranks reaching new levels! People got their beds pissed on, shit on and worse… Tour chaos set to maximum carnage basically. After the demo we headed north to Tehachapi, CA where the fine people at Woodward let us session their camp for the day. Woodward is basically a giant compound with more obstacles to skate than any other place i've ever seen. They even have a mega ramp where Rune got a serious hammer and a few others got broke off… all good in the hood though. On our way out of town we skated an apocalyptic ditch spot that had some of the best and worst graffiti ever! Next stop… Visalia, CA. Check out this video from the Simi Valley demo and thanks to Skatelab and Woodward for the good times!

Ombuds are individuals who rely on a number of techniques to resolve disputes. These techniques include counseling, mediating, conciliating, and fact finding. Usually, when an ombud receives a complaint, s/he interviews the parties, reviews files, and makes recommendations to the disputants. The ombuds do not impose solutions. The power of the ombud lies in his/her ability to persuade the parties to accept his/her recommendations. An individual not accepting the proposed solution of the ombud is free to pursue a remedy in other forums for dispute resolution.
Here is a list of agencies which have an ombuds program, including either the agency's webpage or telephone number:

This is a well-researched program by Carol Miller, a photographer, quilter and writer. Discussions include a review of cave painting, including the well-known caves of Altamira, Lascaux and Chauvet, and the lesser known caves of Niaux, Cougnac, Magura and many others. Other types of art discussed include portable art, including spear throwers, discs, pendants and jewelry, and the Venus figures from Western Europe to Siberia. The art will be discussed within the context of history and the development of man and to show how much of it foreshadows the artistic techniques used today.
Registration is not required, but organizers ask that participants let them know in advance if they plan to attend so as to provide adequate seating and refreshments. A free-will donation will be taken.
Market Street Art Center is located at 247 Market St., Lockport. For more information, call 716-478-0239.

A cable failed, and you've run temporary cabling to bypass it. You want to replace this cable as soon as possible, right? Wrong. Suppose you shut down to replace that cable and an adjacent cable fails the next day. Ouch.
There is a solution. But first, what should you do if you must replace a cable that you couldn't jumper around? Typically, production is down until you replace the cable, so you get the crew mobilized and start right away.
You should conduct insulation resistance testing on the failed cabling before removing it. Also conduct insulation resistance testing on all the adjacent cabling. You may not have the replacements on hand, but you know which cables to schedule replacement of. Your solution in the bypass situation is to test the adjacent cables before replacing the failed one, and then replace all marginal cables when replacing the failed one.
Your counterparts in production need to understand that a planned cable replacement costs less in total downtime. That's partly because a planned job is far more efficient. You also want to avoid unplanned failures because they can increase downtime due to collateral damage. It takes less time and money to replace an intact cable than to replace a faulted cable and melted switchgear.

"great product"
I just received this product today. I have really big issues with ants getting into the cat dish. Its been six hours with the use of these pegs and so far not one ant has gotten into the dish. Great job y'all!!!
"These work!"
The great thing about these is that they will attach to any size bowl and make it ant proof. So many ant proof bowls that I have purchased are huge and not good for use with kittens. They can't reach the food! I was able to attach these little Ant-T-Ant feet onto the bottom of a favorite bowl that the kittens could still reach food out of.

Audi 5000 Power Steering Rack FOR SALE
The Audi 5000 Power Steering Rack, which is a part of the power steering mechanism, converts the rotational motion of the steering wheel to the linear motion needed to turn the wheels of your car. The power steering rack consists of a piston fitted inside a cylinder with two fluid hoses on either side of the piston. A hydraulic steering pump draws the steering fluid from its reservoir, pumps it down the steering shaft, and then sends it back into the reservoir. The steering column includes a torsion bar and a rotary valve which are the key components in the power-steering system. When the steering wheel is turned, the torque exerted on the wheel is transferred to the torsion bar and the rotary valve. When the valve turns, it opens the port to the steering outlet and the fluid flows into the appropriate side of the steering rack. The high-pressure fluid pushes on the piston inside the cylinder to provide the necessary power assist to turn the wheels. The steering mechanism can lose its accuracy and effectiveness due to worn out pinion gears and leaking steering fluid. If you sense a hard or stiff steering or if your vehicle seems to wander while driving straight, you should check the power steering rack for defects and replace it, if needed.
If you are looking for a genuine Audi 5000 Power Steering Rack, you have come to the right place. Buy Auto Parts has a wide range of car parts for every car make and model.

"Easy to install"
By Debo from Knoxville, TN
We needed to cover three windows ( 110" in width) and wanted the blinds inside the window frame not on the outside. I needed two people to help install but just for marking the holes for installing the brackets. We like them for sure but we might not have gotten the blinds that also drop from the top because there is a lot of extra string that we have to hide. I guess we really only needed blinds that rise from the bottom up. We have the only lowered the top a few times and realistically may never do that again.View this product

Tampa Bay celebrates Marty1k Night in style.
Ben Bishop stopped all 37 shots he faced for the victory. There was no doubt the Lightning were loosey goosey defensively in the First and Second Periods, due a lot to the absence of Radko Gudas, but Bishop is the big eraser of mistakes. His First Period glove stop on Stralman will make highlight reels, for sure. Another night where U of Maine Justice was served.
First Period
2:12 TB Kucherov (1), (Purcell, Brewer)
3:10 TB St. Louis (9), (Filppula, Hedman)
Second Period
3:12 TB St. Louis (10) , (Filppula, Sustr)
16:52 TB Purcell (6), (unassisted)
Third Period
18:59 TB Purcell (7), (St. Louis, Alex Killorn)
Martin St. Louis, Bishop, and Nikita Kucherov were the game's three stars.
Life is good when you have a true number one goaltender. You give Bishop a few goals of support to work with and he's going to get you across the finish line on most nights. The Lightning did a decent enough job keeping the really heinous odd man rushes and breakaways out of their game, and even though they were loose in their own end and allowed a ton of shots, it was enough. All that said, I wouldn't want a steady diet of it and I hope Gudas returns very, very soon.
The Kucherov goal was a nice story, especially on this website, but it was gravy and not meat and potatoes. The meat and potatoes story of the night was that Marty and Purcell each had a pair of goals. Those two getting on track is what has to happen for the Lightning to stay in the hunt until #91's return. Silky smooth hands by Martin St. Louis on his two breakaway goals. I'd expect nothing less if the Swedish Battletank, Fredrik Modin, made the trek down to the game, as he did tonight.
Mark Barberio was +1 with 1 shot, 2 hits, and 1 blocked shot. He's not going to ever be confused for Scott Stevens in his own third, but if he cuts down the really poor turnovers, the Lightning may be able to live with him.
Tyler Johnson had 2 shots and 2 blocked shots in 18:38 and was 75% on draws. Home cooking agrees with Tyler's faceoff percentage.
Alex Killorn had a helper and was +3 with 4 penalty minutes, 1 shot, and 1 blocked shot in 14:13. He was also 25% on draws. It's a decent stat line, but the number of penalties he's taking won't cut it.
Ondrej Palat had 3 shots and 1 blocked shot in 19:23. Excellent on the penalty kill. Excellent on one or two occasions carrying the puck for entry into the offensive zone on the PP. He's quietly a backbone type player on the lower lines.
J.T. Brown was +2 with 2 shots and 3 hits in 16:45. His speed allows him to be very active in the play and he's got a quick release that he isn't afraid to use. He's been a nice fit getting some scoring line and PP minutes.
Kucherov scored his first NHL goal on his first NHL shot on his first NHL shift. Efficiency. He was also +2 with 1 shot and 1 hit in 11:31. You got a taste of his talents tonight, with a quick, hard release on his goal and a quick, crafty setup to Teddy Purcell that nearly amounted to a helper. That was the good. The nitpick side points out he got away with one offensive zone penalty that sprung Purcell on his first goal and he probably got away with another offensive zone penalty later in the game. I don't know if the refs had great dinner reservations they didn't want to miss, but both teams got away with bloody murder in the offensive zone in the second half of tonight's game.
Andrej Sustr had a helper and was +1 with 2 blocked shots in 21:44. He recovered from a pretty terrible shift early in the First Period to have a decent night lugging big minutes in Gudas' absence.
Richard Panik had 2 shots in 14:35.
Pierre-Cedric Labrie had 5 penalty minutes in 0:38 of ice time. He left the game with an upper body injury after his second shift.

Russia's central bank held back from raising interest rates after a surprise increase last month, a pause that may prove brief after inflation quickened past the target range to the fastest in 10 months.
Bank Rossii kept the refinancing rate at 8.25 percent at a meeting today after a quarter-point increase in September, the central bank in Moscow said in a statement on its website. The decision was forecast by 19 of 22 economists in a Bloomberg survey. The main short-term lending and deposit rates will remain at 5.5 percent and 4.25 percent.
Economists project the central bank will raise borrowing costs again before the end of 2012 after inflation surged to 6.6 percent in September. Policy makers said in today's statement they don't see risks of a "significant slowdown" to the economy from monetary tightening, another indication the bank is preparing further action to curtail price growth.
"The central bank decided to take a pause and see how the situation with inflation will develop," said Vladimir Tikhomirov, chief economist at Otkritie Capital in Moscow. "The risk of an economic slowdown is there, even though the central bank is less concerned with economic growth."
The ruble appreciated 0.4 percent to 30.9427 per dollar as of 5:53 p.m. in Moscow, heading for the strongest close since Sept. 17. The Micex Index of 30 stocks was 1.8 percent higher at 1,482.26.
Food, Tariffs
Russia, the only major emerging economy to raise interest rates this year, is struggling to keep a lid on prices after droughts in the U.S. and locally drove up food costs. The government's top priority is fighting inflation, even at the expense of short-term growth, President Vladimir Putin said Oct. 2 at an investment conference in Moscow.
Consumer prices rose 6.6 percent in September from a year earlier, led by the cost of bread, meat and alcohol, exceeding the median forecast of 6.5 percent in a Bloomberg survey, the Federal Statistics Service said yesterday.
"The acceleration of inflation in recent months is linked primarily to the pace of growth of food costs and increases in regulated prices and tariffs," Bank Rossii said in the statement. Lending growth and low unemployment "create the conditions to support stable domestic demand."

Edythe Abdullah, Luther Coggin, Toni Crawford, Ann Hicks, Jerry Watterson
Bruce Taylor
Judy Solano
Chair Hicks called the meeting to order and asked for a motion to approve the previous minutes. Trustee Crawford moved to approve the minutes and Trustee Coggin seconded the motion. The motion was approved unanimously.
Chair Hicks asked Judy Clausen to explain the rule on commercial activity. Ms. Clausen offered some background on the changes, stating that the rules to be discussed were outdated and often contradictory and were not reflective of current practices. The pertinent university departments drafted a new set of rules over the past year. The new policies had been approved by the Associates Group and UNF's constituent assemblies. Regarding commercial activity, Ms. Clausen said the definition had been tightened, defining commercial activity as that which resulted in commercial gain and did not include passing out flyers. The rule is intended to regulate commercial activity on campus. Permission would be required, as would sponsorship from a campus group or organization, and would be granted only if the activity benefited a campus entity or was for a non-profit organization.
Upon Ms. Stone's request, Trustee Watterson added that student clubs and organizations often received compensation for sponsorship helping to allay costs. Trustee Crawford asked if charitable groups were also required to compensate clubs for sponsorship. Trustee Watterson replied that they were not. Dr. Gonzalez said that groups requesting permission for commercial activity often were already connected with a campus organization, although Student Life occasionally assisted with finding a campus sponsor.
Ms. Clausen stated that activity contracted with the University did not require permission, nor did activities held on a one-on-one basis with a student such as a pizza delivery, etc. Chair Hicks asked if the rule had been based on the Florida system and Ms. Clausen agreed that it was based on a rule from the University of Florida. Dr. Serwatka noted that one change had been added thanks to Chair Hicks' observation: the University Center operated separately from the rest of the campus in regard to commercial activity and had its own guidelines. This information had been added to the rule.
Ms. Clausen stated that the rule on the distribution of printed material had to do with literature passed out on campus. She said the rule was very liberal, literature could be distributed anywhere on campus so long as the action was not disruptive. For example, the material could not be left on car windshields or passed out in buildings, and the distributor could not block the sidewalk. The rule also outlined the procedure for leaving material without an attendant. Ms. Clausen noted that certain places, such as residence halls, operated a little differently.
The rule on demonstrations set out procedures for oral traditions such as giving speeches, playing guitar, etc. Ms. Clausen said a free speech zone had been designated next to the Robinson Student Life Center. The free speech zone was available to anyone without advanced permission. Flexibility to designate additional spaces with more traffic but without interfering with University operations was included within the rule. Advanced registration was required to set up booths on campus. Booths would be able to set up in the same locations as those designated for commercial activity. Applications and permission were required for protests and other such events on campus. Applications must include the applicant's name, proposed location, date, and time for the activity, anticipated number of participants, purpose, signature, and a statement indicating whether amplification devices would be used. The Office of Student Life would evaluate applications and determine whether the activity would disrupt the campus or pose danger to students, staff, faculty, or the security of the University. Additionally, the Office would ensure that the time and location were suitable and that the applicant was not under a disciplinary penalty or probation prohibiting public assembly or demonstration. Ms. Clausen stated that originally Student Life had not been responsible for oversight but had been designated as the responsible office in the new policy. She drew the group's attention to the policy's outline for handling events that began to disrupt campus. Initially the President or the President's designee would ask the event participants to leave prior to calling in campus police.
Trustee Abdullah asked why the President went out first. President Delaney responded that much of the policy had been derived from UF. The idea behind the policy was that situations might be handled faster and more effectively, resulting in less escalation, if the President or his designee could resolve the issue prior to calling for law enforcement. Ms. Stone complimented Ms. Clausen on the research into the policies and thanked her for all her hard work.
Chair Hicks asked for motions to recommend the rules to the full Board. It was so motioned and the Trustees voted unanimously to recommend all of the rules.
Judy Clausen explained the need to rescind Rules 6C 9-7.007 and 6C 9-7.008 as these rules were now addressed in the campus demonstrations rule and were outdated. Trustees unanimously voted to recommend that the rules be rescinded.
Moving to five-year program reviews, Chair Hicks asked Dr. Wilson to lead the discussion. Dr. Wilson stated that academic programs were reviewed on a regular basis. The reviews were included in the SACS continuous improvement process, the University goals, etc. He referred committee members to the materials in their packets. Three categories of program review were defined: programs without accrediting bodies which required self study within the program or department and an outside reviewer, reviews of programs with accrediting bodies that reviewed the program on a five to seven year cycle, and reviews of programs where accreditation occurred every eight to ten years. Dr. Wilson stated that last year's reviews were conducted under the existing format. While each program had its own recommendations and concerns, primarily the need for more money and more faculty, overall reviews had been outstanding. He said that a number of program reviews were planned this year. At the end of the program review process, reviews were analyzed by an internal committee and sent to the Department of Education.
Chair Hicks asked how it was determined that some programs had outside accrediting bodies while others did not. Dr. Wilson replied that many programs did not have accrediting bodies, accreditation was generally associated with professional licensure. Dr. Kline added that he believed every program in the University that could be accredited was either already accredited or seeking accreditation.
Trustee Coggin asked if there was an additional evaluation process in place between the program reviews. Dr. Wilson answered that there was: each program was required to submit an annual report and to complete a midterm internal program review, in part to examine the progress made in terms of accreditation. Dr. Kline said that often departments chose external reviewers who would conclude that the program needed more resources. He and Dr. Wilson had discussed at length how best to encourage reviewers to work for the University rather than strictly for the departments. He said that it was important to meet with external reviewers to make sure they knew the reasoning behind the report. It was fine to request more resources but other alternatives should be presented as well.
Trustee Abdullah asked how this process tied in with SACS accreditation for the University. Dr. Wilson replied that departments were asked to identify their needs. Trustee Abdullah asked if they had to develop a quality enhancement plan to which Dr. Wilson responded that they did. Dr. Abdullah thought that was wonderful and asked if any thought had been given to how to connect the process with the State's move toward accountability. Dr. Wilson acknowledged that the issue was under consideration. The University was examining how to effect changes in response to department reports. President Delaney asked Janet Owen to speak to this issue. Ms. Owen said that CEPRI was conducting a study on the possibility of university funding contracts for all of the universities rather than just the five universities currently contracted in this manner. Universities would contract with the Board of Governors guaranteeing accomplishments according to the level of funding. Universities would then know in advance how many students could be enrolled. She said possible performance measures, along with each university's mission, would be discussed at the next meeting. UNF was very supportive of the contracting idea. She said the State Board of Education planned to establish common definitions and standards for K through 20 by December 1 of this year. President Delaney pointed out that some of the measures might not be the same as those examined by SACS, however, SACS was increasingly looking at outcomes.
Trustee Abdullah asked if educational needs of the country and of the region were considered in the review process. Dr. Wilson answered that they were and that the process was heavily data driven with data collected from a number of sources. Dr. Kline pointed out mathematics and statistics as an example of this. He said that departments were encouraged to come up with methods for increasing enrolments in programs such as these that were areas of high need. Trustee Abdullah asked if these issues were tied to department budgets. Dr. Wilson replied that departments were asked to specifically address these issues. Trustee Watterson noted that the section under mathematics and statistics offered a less than desirable success rate. He said his professor had announced that more than half the class would fail his college algebra class on the first day of class. He asked how this could be addressed. Dr. Kline agreed that it was a problem. Chair Hicks noted that the problem existed at Harvard and many other universities as well. Dr. Wilson said that the external reviewer had informed them that some universities were replacing the college algebra requirement with liberal arts math. Though the current UNF requirement could not be disposed of at this time, the issue was under consideration.
Chair Hicks commended Dr. Wilson for his report, stating that it was very enlightening and reassuring. She asked President Delaney to announce the changes in funding for the Library addition. President Delaney introduced Ms. Shuman, the new vice president of administration and finance. After everyone welcomed her, he announced that with the consent of the TSI board, he had decided to move some funding back to the library project to allow more substantial renovation in accordance with what had originally been planned. The original plan had been pared down significantly due to budget constraints but he felt it was of the utmost importance that the library addition be sufficient to meet student needs for some time to come. The library was such a necessary resource to any university and he did not feel it sensible to go to the expense of an addition that would quickly be inadequate to the needs of UNF.

WFP is participating in the World Economic Forum this week in Davos, Switzerland, to ensure that hunger -- and nutrition in particular -- remains on the radar of global leaders.
The gathering brings together people of significant influence in all sectors – from presidents and prime ministers to chief executives and heads of international agencies – to consider solutions to some of the world's most pressing problems.
This year, alongside the ongoing emergency operation in Haiti, our main theme will be nutrition and the need for the private sector to help provide innovative solutions on this front.
WFP Executive Director Josette Sheeran will be joining the forum for part of the meeting, which runs 27-31 Jan. Our Dutch corporate partner TNT is helping to cover WFP's costs, which include the setting up of a WFP food aid storage tent (see photo above by Rein Skullerud) where a number of major meetings will be held.
Key WFP-led events are:
- A breakfast brainstorming session on affordable nutrition in developing countries with CEOs from the private sector, mainly from the food industry.
- A nutrition summit with 30 leaders from business, academia, NGOs and governments to begin consultations on how to collaborate in the area of nutrition.
- Josette Sheeran and Peter Bakker, CEO of TNT, will co-host an event for 70 government leaders and CEOs. At this sixth annual event, we will provide an update on WFP's work in Haiti and encourage private and public-sector leaders to collaborate on lasting solutions to world hunger and malnutrition.
- Josette Sheeran will also take a lead role in two other events: the Redesigning a Healthy Start panel, which focuses on the repercussions of malnutrition before the age of two and asking what changes are needed in economics, healthcare and education to eradicate malnutrition by 2015; and an informal gathering of world economic leaders entitled Food Security Nutrition and Sustainable Agriculture: An Agenda for Action.

Mayor's Office
City public safety officials encourage alarm businesses and those using alarm systems to be aware of recent changes to the City's alarm ordinance.
Effective June 1, revisions to the alarm ordinance (City Code Chapter 5.56) include:
Changes to the alarm permit fee structure are:
The false alarm fee is now $100 for each false alarm after the first three in a one-year period (previously $100 after the first six false alarms in a two-year period). The fee increases to $250 for each false alarm after eight false alarms in a one-year period (previously $250 for each false alarm after 15 in a two-year period). Individual users and businesses have 30 days to appeal assessments of special fees rather than 10 days, and the appeal board now meets monthly instead of on an ad hoc basis.
The criminal penalty for having an alarm business or an alarm system without a permit has been removed and replaced with a civil fine of $100 for every false alarm when the alarm system or alarm business is not registered.
For more information, contact LPD Captain Joy Citta at 402-441-7239 or LPD Records Manager Heather Baker at 402-441-7757.

I feel a little like a two-timer. I needed to create a blog for my design class so I've been spending more time there than here. But now I'm ready to share! We'll see how the two blog thing goes. I have my suspicions . . .
The new blog is more about my working process and is intended to share my student work, inspiration, process etc. I think I'll keep our family adventures here for now.
You can find it at woodtextilestudio(dot)wordpress(dot)com.
I have to say I've been enjoying the chance to do it all again without making the same mistakes I made the first time. Hope you like it! I'd love to hear some feedback.

Gartner defines process manufacturing as, "manufacturing that adds value by performing chemical reactions or physical actions to transform materials, or by extracting, mixing, separating or forming materials in batch or continuous production modes."
Process manufacturers generally deal with products that pour, such as liquids or powders, and are produced in bulk quantities. It includes industries, such as chemicals, pharmaceuticals, food and beverages and gasoline.
A process manufacturing system must balance four constraints. First, the batch size is constrained by the amount of product on order and stock quantities to be kept on hand. This is particularly key when using materials or creating a product with a limited shelf life. The second constraint is ingredients, as the most limited ingredient determines how much product can be made. Then, there's packaging inventory, and one of the challenges of process manufacturing is that you need to store the final product in something. The fourth constraint is capacity—or the ability to make a product within the production facility itself.
The critical function of a process manufacturing system is inventory control. One important feature of the inventory system is the ability to manage different units of measurement, for example, determining how many liters of an item are available when it is received in 55 gallon drums. Related to inventory is recipe management, that is, how to alter the formula to make a certain amount or to use available inventory.
On the other hand, a process manufacturing system can be part of an enterprise resource planning (ERP) system, or be part of a best-of-breed set of solutions. It is also possible to integrate with a manufacturing execution system (MES). Accounts payable, accounts receivable, payroll and general ledger are the standard features of these systems. While most installations use on-premises equipment, cloud-based options are also available. Software as a service (SaaS) viability is primarily dictated by the value of installed technology base, but projected maintenance costs of both hardware and software is an important factor as well.
Henry Ford once said, "If you always do what you always did, you'll always get what you've always got." Manufacturers must heed these words and always strive to make business processes more efficient. Some of the major concerns they face include:
Process manufacturing software is designed specifically to manage these complexities. For manufacturers, fulfilling regulatory compliance by tracing ingredients and industrial waste is pivotal. Therefore, across the globe, executives are considering process manufacturing platforms to monitor business processes from end-to-end, that is, from production to delivery.
It is important to note that manufacturing executives can extend process manufacturing capabilities with their existing ERP or MES solutions as an additional module or integration. Furthermore, numerous vendors in the market offer specialized solutions for process manufacturing businesses. Executives should involve all the stakeholders to list out the requisite capabilities in a solution. In addition, buyers should evaluate the suitability and capability of the solution vis-à-vis their requirements before adapting the solution.
Process manufacturing professionals should focus on resolving the following challenges via a process manufacturing platform:
There are many objectives that can be achieved with the help of a process manufacturing application. Manufacturing organizations with mobile employees and remote workstations should ideally look for solutions that also offer mobile applications.
In evaluating software, process manufacturers should consider the following functions to meet their unique requirements:
|Delivery-driven production
|Delivery-driven production matches the batch size to the amount on order plus the quantity to be kept on hand. The system should also verify that all other constraints are met.
|Ingredient-driven production
|Ingredient-driven production matches the batch size to the available quantities of the ingredients on hand. The system should also verify that all other constraints are met.
|Packaging-driven production
|Packaging-driven production matches the batch size to the finished amount that can be packaged with materials on hand. The system should also verify that all other constraints are met.
|Capacity-driven production
|Capacity-driven production matches the batch size to the maximum capacity that the floor can produce. The system should also verify that all other constraints are met.
|Critical path production
|If the process has stages with delays in between, such as a fermenting stage, then the system can match orders of ingredients to the time when they are required. This can save money in initial production costs by delaying purchases until required but runs the risk of loosing a batch if a required ingredient is not available in time.
|Expiration tracking
|Both ingredients and products can have limited shelf lives. The system needs to track expired and close-to-end-of-life inventory.
|Recipe management
|The system should include recipe management, including ingredient substitution. In some cases, ingredients are encoded to keep recipes secret.
|Lot management
|Each lot must be identified and tracked. The ingredients of each batch must be tied to their individual batch number as well.
|Yield variances
|The system should track actual yield versus expected yield for each batch. The system should report excessive variance based on user-defined thresholds and indicate if variances are so large that regulating agencies should be notified.
|Current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) compliance
|cGMP compliance is required for many regulatory agencies at the state and federal levels as well as for insurance purposes. The system should produce required compliance reports.
|Units of measure management
|The system should convert units of measurement as required for inventory management, order processing, receiving and batch production.
|Available to promise, capable to promise
|Available to promise (ATP) and capable to promise (CTP) are measures of manufacturing capacity. The system should calculate the ATP and CTP for any stock item, accounting for ingredients on hand and any work in process.
|EPA and OSHA compliance
|Manufacturers that make, use or have byproducts that are highly hazardous chemicals (HHCs) must comply with the EPA's Risk Management Program (RMP) and OSHA's Process Safety Management (PSM) regulations. The system should produce required compliance reports.

Alexander Netkachev has a new post to his blog that talks about a handy method he discovered when using the Zend Framework to help replace the default "invalid controller" message the Framework gives when hitting a location there's no action for.
A few days ago I noted a quick but very usefull tip on how to handle the situation when Front Controller is unable to dispatch the request, i.e. how to display 404 error page instead of Zend_Controller_Dispatcher_Exception with message "Invalid controller specified". And it looks like the common solution for this is to create a front controller plugin. The plugin detects whether the request is dispatchable and changes module/controller/action to appropriate action that will handle the request.
His solution uses a NoRoute controller to check and see if there is a valid controller for the requested action. If not, it routes them to a custom controller with a nicer error message. For those that want a bit more low level type of solution, he also includes how to modify the framework itself to perform the same action.

Hello, someone pls help.! I have had elevated liver enzymes for over 2 yrs now, and now over the past few months I have really bad night sweats where I wake up soaked! I also feel so sluggish and very very tired and have put on 30 pounds in over 1 1/2 years!!! I had a hysterectory at a very young age of 29, and was on hormone replacements for a very long time. Had appendicitis a little after but nothing since, been pretty much healthy and seeing my primary dr. once a year.
My problem is I have never really felt so bad as I do now. I once had so much energy, up to maybe 2 yrs ago and my health just seems to be going downhill. I am 51 yrs old and feel 80! I weigh 143 pounds compared to the 109 I once weighed a year or two ago. I am a very upbeat person and not at all depressed, just wish one doctor, just one doctor could diagnose my problem. I have had blood tests, which constantly show the elevated liver enzymes, but with no other problems, my dr felt this wasn't too uncommon. At this years' annual exam my blood pressure seemed to be elevated (182/101) and is high at times and I sometimes will find myself at a store and all of a sudden I will feel a flush come over me and my heart starts feeling like its going to jump out of my skin, and I am told this is PCVs. Can someone pls tell me what is going on?:confused:

Sept. 12, 2007
SANTA BARBARA, Calif. - Coming off of their most successful overall seasons in school history and hoping to continue at a high level, the UC Santa Barbara men's and women's cross country programs have added Avery Blackwell as an assistant coach, head coach Pete Dolan has announced.
"Avery is a great addition to the Gaucho coaching staff," Dolan said. "It is fairly unique to have a coach with an engineering background. His perspective will add to our reputation as a very academic team. I was also impressed with his improvement to national class over the course of his collegiate running career and his commitment to his post-collegiate racing with the Nike Farm Team."
Blackwell began his coaching career as a volunteer at Santa Clara University working with both the men's and women's track teams. The distance athletes that he worked with set several of the school records during the 2006 spring season. In 2004-05, Blackwell spent a year and a half as the equipment manager for the cross country and track and field team at Stanford. In 2004, he also co-founded the ALTITUDE Project, a Christian running camp for collegiate athletes, which he has directed the past four summers in Mammoth Lakes, Calif.
Blackwell's experience however extends beyond the coach's whistle and onto the track itself. He attended Cal Poly where he was the Big West 10k Champion in 1999 and received all-conference awards eight times in track and field and cross country. After graduating with a degree in Civil Engineering in 2002, Blackwell went on to train with the Nike Farm Team under the guidance of Frank Gagliano. During his three and a half years on the Nike Farm Team, Blackwell competed at the cross country club national meet twice, finished 23rd at the USA 12k Cross Country Championships in 2004 and as the top American at the prestigious Bay to Breakers in 2003.
Blackwell and his wife Katie are moving to Santa Barbara after spending a year in Canterbury, England where Katie studied for a Master's degree in Literature and he worked as a civil engineer. Drawn back to the sport by his love of running, coach Blackwell is excited to be a part of the success that UCSB cross country has established over the past several years.
"I hope that my knowledge and experience will help play a part in challenging the cross country and track and field programs to strive for their full potential," he said.
The Gauchos travel to San Diego to take part in the Aztec Invitational on Saturday.

Film Review: SkyfallThe best Bond film since the '60s. Period.
Audiences for 50 years have been infatuated with James Bond—MI6 Agent 007. But like the women who evaporate through his life, only to be kissed or killed, it's hard to say why. He's an action hero, but we've many action heroes. He's a spy, but his movies have little of the behind-the-scenes tradecraft that's part of the joy and most of the point of espionage thrillers—what makes them different from detective movies. It's not even about the star, since there have been several James Bonds but only one Man with No Name—who even in the movies where he has a name is Clint Eastwood and Clint Eastwood only.
We loved James Bond in the 1960s, when Sean Connery and even one-off George Lazenby captured an escapist fantasy that was as much about the emerging sexual revolution as it was about confronting our Cold War fears. But with the passage of time, when you no longer had to be a tuxedoed playboy in your mind to get the girl and geopolitics got a lot murkier to the average Joe than in the us-vs.-Commies scenario simplistically sent out for consumption, Bond became camp. Then after this Roger Moore era, the movies became pageant: a serious mien in the faces of Timothy Dalton and Pierce Brosnan, followed by a Rose Bowl parade of Q's gadgets, Moneypenny's banter and all the other many and varied touchstones. When the parade began to seem tired, Bond got rebooted; we got his origin story.
Then what? Following a less-than-successful attempt at contemporizing our spy for all seasons as what we might call "Bourne, James Bourne," where is there left to go?
Skyfall director Sam Mendes found that special place: inside. Inside MI6, inside M's past, inside Bond's own self-created persona. With the last few films' regular writing duo here infused with three-time Oscar nominee John Logan—who also offered a fresh take on movie iconography with last year's animated western Rango—Mendes makes the Bond fantasy feel real, or just real enough. Sure, an Aston Martin DB5 with an ejector seat and front-mounted machine guns was cool in the better-living-through-science '60s. But it's not the '60s anymore, and now it's cool as a retro relic, cool like the superspy version of a vinyl-record stereo. With Skyfall, Mendes and company have created a human-scale espionage thriller that stands on its own, and made the beloved iconography a part of a recognizable today without irony or wink. They took the "super" out of "super-spy"—and it works. A fight atop a train, a cat-and-mouse chase through the London Underground, a casino scrap in a pit with Komodo dragons—Mendes stages it all with a naturalism as exciting as any laser-beam torture trap.
Which isn't to say Skyfall in any way eschews the exotic locales and set-pieces we expect of a Bond movie: Cyberterrorist and former double-0 agent Raoul Silva (Javier Bardem, stealing every scene with a flamboyance skillfully more implied than in-your-face) is targeting Bond's boss M (Judi Dench) for a past action that's no misunderstanding—she did something that may have been tactically right, but was horrific nonetheless. With the aid of a young field agent (Naomie Harris), a battle-scarred Bond travels to Istanbul, Shanghai, an abandoned island off the coast of Macao, and even the past, as he puts it, with a sojourn to Scotland. M now has a bureaucratic overseer (Ralph Fiennes) and must appear before a government commission. And Q (Ben Whishaw) is an arrogant young IT expert who sneers at the idea of "exploding pens."
My own pen has been exploding as I write this review—Bondian double-entendre notwithstanding—since I can't say enough that Mendes, who comes from theatre and from intimate, emotional film dramas, not action movies, was a chancy and in retrospect inspired choice who, for this one, shining moment at least, found the magic formula. It's hard to imagine the next film topping this. I'd settle for it not being 40 years before it's matched.

Skip Hire - 10 Reasons Why You Should Not Hire a Skip Or Mini Skip
Skips are trailer bins that are issued by public garbage disposal committees as well as private garbage disposal companies and agencies. It works quite similarly to the huge garbage trailer bins that are placed on the neighborhood block while the trucks collect the weekly waste. However this is a service that means you can call for a mini skip hire and clean out all your junk in one shot. You know that periodic spring cleaning sessions you have, right? They're not always in spring, but come to you when everything is getting really cluttered up, every once in a while.Maybe it has come with the onset of a new job or at the end of an old one. Maybe you are shifting houses and need to get rid of the excess you have accumulated, since one habit most humans seem to have in common is hoarding. Of course, maybe none of these life changing events has happened and you're just having a good old in depth clearing out session. Either way, where to put all the stuff you are disposing of poses a quandary. You can't just shift it all out on your doorstep or your lawn and wait for the garbage collect truck to haul it away after three or four days or even later.
Many of us may think of the humble waste bin as just a simple receptacle for throwing our rubbish in; however, there are a wide variety of different types of rubbish bin, all designed for different tasks and purposes.Design is highly important when it comes to selecting the right type of waste bin. So when you are looking to buy a rubbish bin, whether its for the home, business or institution, there are several aspects of bin design you should look out for.PracticalityThe most important facet of any bin is its practicality. However it is to be used it needs to be practical. When you are looking to buy a bin think about how it will be used - is it high enough and easy to throw waste in?StyleStyle is also an important facet for bin design, especially for those we around the home. Nearly every room has a waste bin sat in the corner so it needs to fit in with the decor and style of home. Some really nice designer bins are available manufactured from a wide range of materials, these can be proudly displayed rather than half-hidden behind the furniture.
Postie Dumps X-Mas Mail in Skip Bin
Some of it could be rubbish, old appliances, old furniture or even garden waste. If you leave it out, just like that, raccoons, rats, bandicoots and other marauding little creatures could infest your external property and become a regular problem. Your neighbors will almost definitely have an issue with that kind of mess, at the very least from an aesthetic perspective. Hygiene, contamination, creating a breeding ground for disease, bacteria and fungus… are all factors that play across one's mind when we think of irresponsible waste disposal. So it is best to plan out the 'spring' cleaning beforehand. The kind of cleaning materials and the quantity you require, the time you will have to invest in getting the job done and lastly and most importantly, how you will sort out the trash and where it has to go.There is a new really great way to get this done. You can call a mini skip company, and they deliver a mini skip bin to you, where you can chuck all your stuff. They come and take it away and put it in the tip. The job is done. Another alternative to mini skips are the latest feather in cap for many trash disposal agencies whether private or public. You can ask for a jumbo bag instead. Instead of a steel bin, you are provided with a bag. It is foldable, and you can open it up whenever you need it. You can fill it with up to 1.3 tons of trash. The reason they are preferred over mini skips is because they are not as unsightly, they do not come with a waste loading time frame and you are not charged for hire. The most appreciable thing is that eighty percent of all waste is recycled.

Jean-François Oeben, (born c. 1715, Germany—died January 21, 1763, Paris, France), influential French cabinetmaker noted for his outstanding marquetry and for his ingenious mechanical devices.
Oeben came to France at an unknown date and in 1751 entered the workshop of Charles-Joseph Boulle, a son of the famous cabinetmaker André-Charles Boulle, in the Louvre. He was soon patronized by the king's mistress Mme de Pompadour and in 1754 was appointed ébéniste du roi ("royal cabinetmaker"). Much of his work was done for the royal household. His royal warrant gave him the privilege of a workshop in the Gobelins factory, although he later moved to the Arsenal. His masterpiece is the bureau du roi, a desk for the king that he began in 1760 and was working on at the time of his death; it was finished by his younger associate, Jean-Henri Riesener, who also married his widow.

"Fuck you, I'm human ,the real deal , right down to the fuckin marrow of my bones. Don't lump me together with you faggot ass monsters."
When Zodd inquires SK about the berserker armor, "Dear friend / enemy. Do you really intend on allowing him to follow the same path as you? The path down the road of hell?"
You should switch to DH. They may have had some screwups in dialogue translation, but nothing quite as painful as this.
Wow, uh... may want to check your source on that dude. Sounds way off to me. Let me guess, this is EvIL GeNiUs translation?
When I first saw the thread title this is the line that popped into my head, from Ep 275: Guts to Ganishka on the offer to join his army: "You can be an ultimate ruler or whatever. But if you want to spark again, go somewhere else. It's an annoyance for us, old thunder man."Just so disrespectful of THE GREAT EMPEROR! [/i]
Wow is that the correct translation? Man the other one is really far off.
Guts: Screw you (literally: quit joking).Guts: I'm a real human to the core of my bones.Guts: Don't put me together with you damn monsters.
That unkingly half of yours shall all be gathered in that place!! A torrent of madness, a tempest of death for which the human body could never atone, shall sweep over you!! But take heed, struggler!! You were born from a corpse and began your life from death in the mud!! You are closer to death than anyone!! Thus you excel in escaping it!! Struggle, contend, wriggle!! That alone is the sword of one who confronts death!!
I have a sneaking suspicion that this thread will feature a lot of miss quoted dialog.
and"I'm sorry I rapped your girlfriend""It's alright"I had to bring it up really
Guts- "Grooovy!"No but seriously the dialogue from the Lost EPISODE was deeply profound to me. Some of the best writing from the whole series in my opinion. It's also cool when Griffith says "Wings...I want wings." or something close to that.
It's "If so, I want wings." http://skullknight.net/idea/
I stand corrected
"The only one trapped is you, bitch!"Well, that's the line in the Dark Horse translation. I couldn't find the line translated here, so please tell me if that's not even close.
I have a sneaking suspicion that this thread will feature a lot of miss quoted dialog.

Joey805 needed a new other design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 40 designs submitted by 18 freelance designers.
We are a manufacturing company looking for new, creative designs.
The audience we are targeting are youth baseball leagues. These designs will potentially become trophies which will serve as awards for youth leagues.
The goal to design a gender-neutral baseball medal. This is an award item, and will be worn around the neck.
- The design doesn't have to be circular and it does not need to be solid. What I mean by this is the metal is not limited to its typical circular shape, and the material that the medal is made from can have open space.
- There can be nothing gender specific in the design. This means you cannot include figures of either a male or female, but gender-neutral figures are acceptable.(Note: figures are not required)
- Action motions are encouraged, but not required. We have found our target demographic is very responsive to action motions.

She wants a new floor plan. He wants more power. They both love this houseboat and want to keep it, but with major changes. Few words are scarier than "remodel" because Groene's Law dictates that it will take twice as long and cost twice as much as you think. You're sure to find more delays than you bargained for-a spot of wood rot, a frayed wire, a corroded fitting, or a need for complete re-routing of wiring or plumbing.
Here is a suggested timeline that might make a major renovation go more smoothly for you.
1. Get together with your spouse or co-owners and brainstorm, dream, develop a vague outline.
2. By actual feet, inches and pounds, look at space and weight requirements for big changes such as new engine(s), a combo washer-dryer or a big refrigerator-freezer.
3. If you'll be changing entryways, windows or hatches (and you may have to in order to get big new inboards or a grand piano onboard), think about the structural implications. Just as a house has beams and bearing walls, your houseboat has structural integrity to consider.
On a boat, weight and balance also come into play. A filled, 500-gallon hot tub weighs two tons in water alone.
4. Put your ideas on paper so you, your remodeling team and a marine architect will have something solid to work with. It's now time to call in the professionals. Consider behind-the-scenes changes such as increased insulation against weather or more sound-deadening insulation on inside walls. This is also the time to stub in wiring or plumbing for changes you plan to make in the future but can't afford just now.
After determining if your wish list is do-able, you can now fine-tune plans and start a cost analysis. Shop around for financing or, if you will pay as you go, understand the payment schedule expected by contractors.
5. At this point things will be different for liveaboards than for houseboaters who live onshore. In any case, find a nearby storage unit and offload as much gear as possible. Even if some furnishings aren't involved in the re-do, storing them guards against breakage, theft and the dirt and dust that will soon fill the boat.
6. Make yourself available to professionals who will need you to choose paint colors, carpeting, new window treatments as work proceeds. Just as you choose qualified marine carpenters and electricians it's wise to use a marine interior decorator. A boat moves, making a big difference in your choices for curtains, blinds, carpeting and other home-style features.
7. As each step is completed and each payment due, inspect the work and note any errors or omissions on a "punch list." This helps determine what, if any, money is withheld until the job is satisfactory.
8. A final punch list is made when work is completed. Try every appliance, switch, outlet and faucet to make sure wiring and plumbing are properly done. See if the fold-out sofa goes in and out smoothly, new windows open and close, patio doors slide easily, the toilet flushes and so on. After a final inspection and cleanup, the last payment changes hands and it's time to move back in.
They say that buying your boat is the second happiest day of your life. Moving in after the renovation of your dreams is the first.

Beet Leaf Salad Recipes
Beet Green and Sugar Snap Pea Salad Recipe
Did you know that beet leaves are edible? This season, my husband Lulu planted chiles, zucchini, squash, tomatoes and beets. The beets came out a lot smaller than I expected but maybe it's just because Lulu wasn't patient enough to wait. The beet roots were so small that I decided against serving them by themselves. However, there were plenty of beet greens. I boiled the beet leaves as I would with spinach and made a salad. You could probably eat the beet leaves raw if they're crisp and young, but to ensure the girls would enjoy the salad I boiled them a bit. Just make sure to pick young leaves, as they are quite tender, with little bitterness. Interestingly, when boiled they taste almost like rau mồng tơi, which is a Vietnamese green if you're familiar with Asian cuisine.
I finished the beet leaf salad with sugar snap peas for crunch and mandarin segments. It was an educational experience for me, and I can definitely say that beet leaves are quite under-rated. They're packed with vitamins A and C and iron.
I reserved the small beets that Lulu had harvested and made beet risotto for dinner. It's a tasty way to extend the value of a small quantity of beets.
