Aloo Tikki Choley Chaat
Aloo tikki is a very popular north Indian snack. These aloo tikki's are stuffed with channa dal in the center and shallow fried. You can put any veggie filling you like instead of channa.Now these tikki's can be served along with tamarind-date chutney, green chutney and yogurt. Then the next thing you can do is make chaat with Aloo tikki and serve along with choley.
Aloo Tikki - Stuffed with Channa dal
6 medium - Potatoes, boiled
2 tbsp - Bread crumbs
1/2 of a - Onion, finely chopped
2 - Green chili, finely chopped
2 tbsp - Coriander leaves, finely chopped
Salt to taste
Masala powders
1/2 tsp - Red chili powder

1/2 tsp - Garam masala powder
For filling in center
1/3 cup - Channa dal
Salt to taste
1 ) Soak channa dal for 1/2 hour and cook dal in enough water with salt to taste. Dal should not get over cooked. Cook till the dal is cooked and grainy, not mashed.
2 ) Boil potato with the skin. Discard the skin and mash potato finely. Add bread crumbs, mix and knead to make a smooth dough. Now add all the masala powders, salt to taste, onion, green chili and coriander leaves. Mix well.
3 ) Now take a small portion of potato dough, make a ball, then flatten it. To the center of the dough put little cooked chana dal and wrap it with potato dough, like it is done with stuffed paratha. Wrap the dough and then make like a ball and flatten little to get a pattie shape.
4 ) Heat a flat pan with little oil. Place the tikki in the oil and shallow fry on both sides to a golden brown color. Take off the pan and drain in a paper towel. Similarly make tikki's with rest of the potato dough.
Serve with Tamarind-date chutney, green chutney and yogurt. You can drizzle the chutneys and yogurt on the tikki and serve. I have not made green chutney for this picture. It was yummy even without green chutney.
To make Aloo Tikki Choley Chaat
You need to make choley to serve with aloo tikki. This is a simple choley preparation to go with aloo tikki.
For choley
29 0z / 822 grams can - White chick peas, drain water and wash well

Video encoding
- 1 Video Encoding

- 1.5 Common Misconceptions
- 1.6 I want to learn some basics
Video Encoding
Videos can be encoded through the command line, as single commands, or using scripts, or using GUI interface to command line options. This article covers some of the possibile methods.
GUI And Scripted Conversions
GUI Conversions
Several graphical user interfaces exist to assist with the conversion of video to new formats.
- winff
- ogmrip
- dvdrip
- handbrake
- avidemux
Scripted Conversions
xvidencAUR is a script available in the AUR. It uses mencoder and might be a good fit, if want to convert some videos but lack most of the knowledge: While there are (probably?) even easier scripts out there, this one still gives you a lot of choices (most of which you can ignore by pressing enter to use a decent default settings).
h264encAUR is an advanced shell script for encoding DVDs or video files to the H.264 format using the encoding utility MEncoder from MPlayer.
Specific Commands
Encoding AVI Videos in Windows and Mac Readable Formats
Use these commands:
opt="vbitrate=2160000:mbd=2:keyint=132:vqblur=1.0:cmp=2:subcmp=2:dia=2:mv0:last_pred=3" mencoder -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=msmpeg4v2:vpass=1:$opt -oac mp3lame -o /dev/null input.avi mencoder -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=msmpeg4v2:vpass=2:$opt -oac mp3lame -o output.avi input.avi
"input.avi" is the AVI you made using Linux utilities, and "output.avi" is the AVI you want to make which will be readable by Windows and Mac users.
Common Misconceptions
(Easy one-liners? I'll think I'll do this Section first, as I did & do have a LOT of misconceptions and I'm sure a lot of people who mostly used windows to convert videos in the past have, too;))
Codecs v.s. Containers
encoder v.s. codec
I want to learn some basics
look (I'm not sure where: links some starting points to look depending on what one needs?)
avi, mkv etc... (max one line description + one link for the most used ones?)
xvid, stuff (..same...?)
Choosing the right stuff
no idea

After a four-month lull in activity, a joint city project that could somehow, someday bridge gaps in the Stevens Creek Trail could soon be back on track.
Residents, city employees and city officials involved in the Stevens Creek Trail Joint Cities Feasibility Study could be back to debating and planning for a feasibility study in the coming weeks. The project is seeing the city councils of Sunnyvale, Cupertino, Los Altos and Mountain View work together on how to connect a multi-use trail in the Stevens Creek corridor.
Meetings involving a council-driven Joint Cities Working Team and a resident-driven Citizens Working Group have been perpetually on hold while the project team conducts more research with Caltrans along several important corridors.
"The additional research that the project team is working on deals with the feasibility of bicycle and pedestrian improvements along the interchanges at Highway 280/Foothill Expressway, Highway 85/Stevens Creek Boulevard, and Highway 85/Fremont Avenue," Sunnyvale communications officer Jennifer Garnett said. "The project team is working on preparing the administrative draft of the feasibility study report. The Citizens Working Group and Policy Working Team meetings are suspended for the time being to allow the report to be drafted."
A new project schedule is coming in early April, with hopes of a feasibility study soon after.
While the project awaits its jump-start, the Friends of Stevens Creek Trail group will be hosting a meeting March 28 for neighbors to address concerns about the trail and discuss others like it in neighboring communities. The meeting is being held independent of the joint feasibility study process.
"This meeting is in response to general misinformation and hyperbole surrounding the trail," said Tim Oey, vice president of Friends of Stevens Creek Trail. "A lot of people don't realize or understand why such a trail is important. We want to have more discussions about the pros and cons and have discussions about other neighborhoods that have been in similar situations and what they are like.
"We encourage people to check out Sleeper Avenue in Mountain View or the Ellen Fletcher Bike Boulevard in Palo Alto as examples of urban trails going through neighborhoods that improve property values."
Titled "Urban Trail connections: Pros, Cons and Information," the meeting will be held on March 28 from 7 to 9 p.m. at West Valley Elementary School, 1635 Belleville Way, in Sunnyvale.
The meeting aims to gather input from the public about the potential for trail connections in Cupertino, Los Altos and Sunnyvale to bridge the gap between the Stevens Creek Trail in Mountain View–which currently ends at Dale Avenue/Heatherstone Way–and Cupertino's trail–which is currently being extended from Blackberry Farm north onto Stevens Creek Boulevard, near the Blue Pheasant Restaurant.
"The current feasibility study process seems to have created some confusion in the community about how the trail connections might affect their neighborhoods," Aaron Grossman, executive director of the Friends, said in a statement. "We'd like to do our part to understand the concerns of the neighborhoods and provide relevant information to them."
Despite the lull in activity, residents are also forming groups to comment on joint-city trail issues. In early March, Citizens for Responsible Trails announced its formation. The group is made up of residents from various cities and neighborhoods who plan on commenting throughout the feasibility study process.
The group is focusing on mitigating impacts to neighborhoods where trails are proposed and also requesting the use of as much existing infrastructure as possible to limit costs to taxpayers.
Citizens for Responsible Trails is firmly against a potential pedestrian and bicycle bridge or overcrossing spanning Highway 280, since the multimillion-dollar Don Burnett Bicycle-Pedestrian Bridge already exists about a mile away on Mary Avenue. A possible overcrossing spanning I-280 from the Phar Lap neighborhood in Cupertino was discussed last year during early feasibility study meetings.
"We formed our group to give ordinary citizens a voice in the process," Kathleen Cordova, president of Citizens for Responsible Trails, said in a press statement. "As we learned more about the Stevens Creek Trail Feasibility Study, it became clear that we would have to speak up for a commonsense approach to the issue."

Graduate Student Handbook
Section 1. Enrollment
Registration | Courses | Billing | Enrollment Status | Statute of Limitations | Statute of Limitations Extensions | Candidacy for Doctoral Students | Leave of Absence | Withdrawal/Dismissal | Absences for Religious Reasons
a. Registration
All graduate students must enroll using SPIRE, the University's online student information system, at https://spire.umass.edu every semester, both Spring and Fall, from initial Graduate School enrollment until their degree (or certificate) has been awarded. A graduate student maintains enrollment each semester by either registering for course/thesis/dissertation credits or by registering for Continuous Enrollment (GradSch 999) and paying the Program Fee. Registration begins in mid-April for the fall semester and for the spring semester in mid-November. (Refer to the Academic Calendar or correspondence from the Graduate School for exact beginning and ending dates.) It is important for students to register as early as possible for finanical aid purposes, assistantships, and other university services. Off-campus and online students are required to enroll each semester by contacting their program or the Graduate School (see #8 for additional information).
1. Course Listings:
A Schedule of Course Offerings can be viewed on SPIRE. Course descriptions are listed in the SPIRE Course Catalog and the Graduate Bulletin. Not all courses described in the Catalog and Bulletin are offered every term.
2. Registration Deadline:
The tenth class day of the semester is considered the registration deadline. Registration (Add/Drop) is accomplished by using SPIRE.
3. Course Exceptions/Off-Line (Restricted) Courses:
Some courses are not available for registration through SPIRE either due to manual prerequisite checking or other departmentally set limitations. Permission must be obtained from the academic department/instructor to register for such courses. A student must seek permission and submit the required departmental approval form to the department office prior to the end of the registration deadline, the tenth class day of the semester.
4. Continuous Enrollment/Program Fee:
Graduate students not enrolled for course/thesis/dissertation credits and who are candidates for a degree (or certificate) must register for Continous Enrollment (Gradsch 999), formerly known as the Program Fee, every semester until that degree (or certificate) has been formally awarded, not simply filed for. An incomplete grade (INC/IP) from a previous semester does not maintain a graduate student's enrollment status. Newly admitted graduate students cannot register for Continuous Enrollment to defer entrance into the University, nor is Continuous Enrollment applicable for non-degree graduate students. Before the end of the registration period, graduate students may register for Continuous Enrollment (Gradsch 999) in SPIRE. The student will then receive a bill from the Bursar's Office.
5. Penalty for Not Enrolling by the Deadline:
Any graduate student who has not registered for course/thesis/dissertation credits or continuous enrollment, is routinely withdrawn from the University. Any graduate student wishing to enroll after being withdrawn must be formally readmitted, and pay a $125.00 Readmission Fee, in addition to paying any current tuition and/or fee charges, and any accumulated Program Fees. Readmission is not automatic; the former student's reapplication may be evaluated in competition with those of other current applicants.
6. What to do if My Record is on Hold:
Holds are placed on a student's record when an action by the student is required before the student can register. Registration holds are typically due to missing admissions materials or an outstanding bill. It is necessary to resolve the problem and have the hold removed as quickly as possible as you are not able to register until it is removed. To find out why you have a hold and get it removed, refer to "Hold" on SPIRE listed under "Personal Portfolio." You are responsible for having the hold removed and registering before the registration deadline - no extensions are given.
7. Off-Campus and Online Graduate Program Registration:
Graduate students enrolling in recognized off-campus and online graduate programs must comply with the same registration deadlines as on-campus graduate students. Registration information is distributed to students by each program. Registration methods vary by program. A student admitted to an off-campus or online degree program who does not enroll for course credits must register for Continuous Enrollment/Program Fee.
8. Summer/Winter Session Registration:
- Summer/Winter Session registration is conducted through the Division of Continuing Education and is optional for graduate students unless it is required for financial aid or a stipend. Continuous Enrollment and payment of the Program Fee is not required for the summer.
- Graduate students may elect to enroll in any summer or winter session course offering.
- The maximum number of dissertation credits which may be earned during a summer session is nine (9). Registration for thesis and dissertation credits is not permitted in the winter session.
- To use the University Library during the summer months, an active student identification card from the preceding spring semester is recognized.
b. Courses
1. University of Massachusetts Amherst Course Numbering System:
100 - 199 Introductory lower division (freshman)
200 - 299 Other lower division (sophomore)
300 - 399 Upper division (junior/senior)
400 - 499 Upper division (junior/senior);
graduate credit may be awarded only to candidates outside the department's own graduate program, when taught by a member of the Graduate Faculty.
500 - 599 Combined graduate/undergraduate
600 - 699 Master's or first-year graduate
700 - 899 Doctoral or advanced graduate
2. On-Campus:
Graduate students are eligible to enroll for any regularly scheduled University course, graduate or undergraduate, provided they meet all course prerequisites and space is available. Permission of the course instructor may be necessary. Courses which will be offered, with meeting times, places, and names of the instructors, are listed each semester on SPIRE. For course descriptions, refer to the current Graduate School Bulletin and/or department/school literature. The Bulletin is available from the Graduate School home page: www.umass.edu/gradschool under quick links.
3. Five College Interchange:
Graduate students enrolled in degree programs are eligible to register for most courses offered at Amherst, Smith, Mount Holyoke, and Hampshire colleges through the Five College Interchange Program. Each student must enroll for at least one three-credit University of Massachusetts Amherst course to be eligible to take courses at the cooperating colleges. Note: Most courses offered by the area colleges are undergraduate level and, therefore, are not necessarily applicable toward graduate degree credit at the University. You may register for five college courses using SPIRE. Each semester there are two registration periods for Five College classes. You can find these dates listed on the Five College Online Academic Calendar. To search for courses, visit the Five College Course Catalog.
4. Division of Continuing and Professional Education:
Review the course and program offerings on the Division of Continuing and Professional Education website.
5. Off-Campus/Online:
Students enrolled in an approved off-campus or online program will receive course and registration information through their program's off-campus office. An "off-campus" student is generally not permitted to register for on-campus courses without being formally admitted to the on-campus degree program; for further information, contact your off-campus program office or the Graduate Student Service Center.
6. Thesis/Dissertation:
Any student writing a master's thesis or doctoral dissertation must register for thesis (699) or dissertation (899) credits prior to filing for the degree. Most graduate programs require a minimum of six (6) thesis and eighteen (18) dissertation credits (refer to the course listing in the Graduate School Bulletin for any variance). There is no maximum number of thesis/dissertation credits for which a student can register; however, a student can only register for a maximum of ten (10) credits of master's thesis (699) per semester/summer session, or a maximum of nine (9) credits of doctoral dissertation (899) per semester/summer session (see also Degree Requirements).
7. Non-Degree:
A graduate student who enrolls in courses as a non-degree student and is later accepted into a degree program may only apply six (6) graduate credits toward that program, subject to approval by the student's Graduate Program Director and by the Graduate School (see Transfer Credit Policy).
8. Maximum Course/Credit Load:
A graduate student may routinely register for up to sixteen (16) credits each semester and nine (9) credits during the summer session. Any student who wishes to register for an additional course (maximum of 18 credits) must secure the endorsement of his/her Graduate Program Director.
9. Audited Courses:
A graduate student may audit any class; however, such a course cannot be used to complete any degree requirement. A student may register as an auditor through SPIRE. The deadline for registering as an auditor is the tenth class day of the semester. A student may convert an otherwise passing course to an audit up to the last day of classes. Students are assessed full tuition and fees for audited courses, and these courses do not count when calculating status for loan deferment purposes.
10. Course Changes:
A graduate student may make course changes (both add and drop) during the first ten class days of the semester without penalty or any indication on the transcript. Such changes are made using SPIRE. Courses may be dropped following that deadline; however, the grade of Drop (DR) will be recorded from the third to the eigth week of the semester. A grade of Withdraw Passing (WP) or Withdraw Failing (WF) will be recorded after the eigth week of the semester. Course changes from the third week until the end of the semester require the instructor's approval and the date last attended for any course withdrawal.
11. Independent Study/Special Problems:
Independent work may receive credit as Independent Study or Special Problems courses provided that the work is performed under the guidance of a graduate faculty member and the course is properly recorded as part of the student's registration. Grading of such courses follows the standard Graduate School Grading Policies. Students may register for whatever number of independent study courses their adviser recommends; however, a maximum of six (6) credits (12 credits for M.F.A. students) may be used to fulfill master's degree requirements if the student writes a thesis (see also Master's Degree Requirements).
c. Billing
1. Tuition:
Graduate students pay tuition on the basis of credits of enrollment. Audited courses are charged at the same rate as courses taken for credit. The per credit tuition rate is determined by dividing the maximum resident or non-resident tuition (set by the Board of Trustees) by 12. Graduate students who register for 12 or more credits pay the maximum tuition; those registering for less than 12 credits pay at the per credit rate.
2. Fees:
All graduate students registering for credits with the exception of University employees, MA Veterans, and supervisory teachers, are required to pay the Board of Trustees approved fees each semester. Included are the Student Health Fee (if enrolled for 5 or more credits), Graduate Service Fee, Curriculum Support Fee and Graduate Student Senate Fee. The Student Health Insurance Plan fee is required unless the student provides proof of coverage under a major medical insurance plan with the exception of international students. The Students Health Insurance Plan is mandatory for international students and any student who does not provide proof of adequate major medical insurance. Graduate students are required to pay a Graduate Entering Fee each time the student matriculates. Graduate students in the College of Engineering are also required to pay an Engineering Fee each semester. Graduate students who receive a tuition waiver may also receive a waiver of some fees (refer to the current Graduate Employees Organization contract). Graduate students enrolling for four (4) or fewer credits pay reduced fees. For a schedule of current tuition and fees, contact the Bursar's Office or access it from the Bursar's Office homepage.
3. Mailing and Due Dates:
Notification of graduate student tuition/fee bills is generally sent by email several days after the add/drop deadline. The due date for payment is normally the end of the fifth week of the semester. Student charges can be viewed on SPIRE. You are responsible for paying the bill by the deadline indicated even if you do not receive a bill; therefore, you should check SPIRE regularly and pay your bill by the due date indicated.
a. Payment by Payroll Deduction
Students who receive a stipend as graduate assistants may opt to have their charges paid through payroll deduction providing that they complete the required forms by the posted deadline each semester. Contact the Bursar's Office for further information.
b. Failure to Pay by Bill Due Date
If your bill is not paid by the posted due date you will be required to pay a late fee to the Bursar's Office and a hold will be placed on your record. This hold will prevent registration for the upcoming semester. If the bill is not paid and the hold removed by the end of the enrollment period for the upcoming semester you will be administratively withdrawn from your program and must be readmitted (see Penalty for not Enrolling by the Deadline).
4. Refund/Payment Schedule:
Graduate students who withdraw from the University or drop one or more courses will receive a prorated refund based upon the date of the last class attended. Similarly, graduate students who have not paid their bills will be assessed prorated tuition and fees based upon the same schedule and procedure. Students who withdraw after the fifth week of the semester will be responsible for 100 percent of their semester bill and will not be entitled to receive a refund.
5. Tuition Waivers:
The University grants several types of tuition waivers based upon service, scholarship and/or need. See the "General Information" section of the Graduate School Bulletin for information on currently available tuition waivers.
6. Off-Campus Fee Reduction:
Students completing their thesis, dissertation or internship at an "off-campus" site may be eligible for a reduction in mandatory fees (Graduate Service Fee, Graduate Student Senate Fee, Student Health Fee). Contact the Graduate Student Service Center for more information. The Off-Campus Fee Reduction Form can be found on the Graduate School's website under the Students menu item, Forms for Graduate Students.
7. Residency Classification For Tuition Purposes:
Tuition is assessed based upon the student's residency classification. At the time of application, the Graduate Student Service Center determines each applicant's residency classification based upon information in the applicant's Residency Statement and the current Board of Trustees Rules and Regulations Governing the Residency Status of Students For Tuition Purposes. The applicant must submit an affidavit to support his/her claim to Massachusetts residency status.
8. Reclassification of Residency:
Residency for tuition purposes is not acquired by mere physical presence in Massachusetts while a person is carrying on a course of study at the University or other school. Residence in Massachusetts must be established for a minimum of twelve consecutive months prior to entering or re-entering as a matriculating student. The Tuition Classification Rules & Regulations should be read in full before submitting the Residency Reclassification Appeal Form. Contact the Graduate School's Residency Reclassification Officer if you have questions about your residency classification.
- The Graduate School defines full-time graduate student status as enrollment for nine (9) or more credits; part-time graduate student status is defined as eight (8) or fewer credits in a semester.
- Degree candidates working full-time on research for a required theis or dissertation may be considered full-time graduate students regardless of the number of credits for which they register provided their Graduate Program Director or Department Head/Chair certifies that they are working full-time on research.
- Audited courses do not count toward enrollment status.
- Working on incomplete courses from prior semesters cannot count toward enrollment status.
- For financial aid purposes, half-time is defined as six (6) credits.
- Immigration law requires that foreign students be enrolled at full-time status.
- To satisfy the residency requirement for a doctoral degree, doctoral students must spend the equivalent of at least one continuous academic year of full-time graduate work (nine credits per semester) in residence at the university. A semester in which a department certifies a student as working full-time on research, without the student registering for credits, does not count towards the residency requirement.
e. Statute of Limitations/Expected Graduation Term
The Statute of Limitations (SOL) is the period within which all degree requirements must be completed. It is determined during the acceptance process using the following guidelines:
Master's degrees for students admitted starting Summer 2015:
- SOL's are set to four (4) years with the exceptions noted below;
- for an M.F.A. degree, the SOL is five (5) years;
- for all part-time off-campus programs, the SOL is five (5) years;
- for dual master's degrees, the SOL is five (5) years unless otherwise noted in the program description.
Master's degrees for students admitted prior to Summer 2015:
- SOL's are set to three (3) years with the exceptions noted below;
- for an M.F.A. degree, the SOL is four (4) years;
- for part-time off-campus programs in engineering, labor studies, management, music education, nursing, nutrition, and public health practice, the SOL is four (4) years;
- for dual master's degrees, the SOL is four (4) years unless otherwise noted in the program description.
Doctoral degrees for students admitted starting in Summer 2009:
- for new doctoral students starting in Summer 2009, the SOL is set at six (6) years prior to achieving candidacy and five (5) years once candidacy is achieved.
Doctoral degrees for students admitted starting Summer 2004 and prior to Summer 2009:
- prior to achieving candidacy, the SOL was set as indicated below;
- after achieving candidacy, the SOL is re-set to five (5) years.
Doctoral degrees for students admitted prior to Summer 2004:
- for doctoral students without an earned master's degree in their major field, the SOL was set at six (6) years;
- for doctoral students with a related master's degree, the SOL was set to four (4) years.
The Expected Graduation Term is the last term during which a student is allowed to register before their statute of limitations expires. Students who submit a Degree Eligibility Form will see their Expected Graduation Term adjusted to the actual expected graduation term.
For example: Expected Grad Term of Summer 2019 means that you are eligible to register through the Summer 2019 semester, and that your Statute of Limitations expires at the end of summer 2019 (August 31, 2019).
f. Statute of Limitations Extensions
A graduate student may be granted additional time to complete his/her degree program by the Graduate Dean provided the student's Graduate Program Director makes such a recommendation and provided satisfactory and reasonable progress is being made.
g. Candidacy for Doctoral Students
Candidacy is recommended for doctoral students by the academic department upon satisfactory completion of coursework and passing the qualifying examination.
1. Personal Leave of Absence:
Registration for Continuous Enrollment and payment of a Program Fee does not constitute a leave of absence. A student must formally request a leave of absence by petitioning his/her Graduate Program Director who, in turn, provides justification for the request to the Graduate Dean. If the Dean grants a leave of absence, the student's statute of limitations will be appropriately increased. Graduate students on a leave of absence must maintain continuous enrollment by registering for the Continuous Enrollment course and paying the Program Fee every semester during their leave. A student on a leave of absence is not considered to be actively completing a degree program; therefore, loan deferments cannot be signed during this period of time.
2. Health Leave of Absence/Withdrawal:
When a student's physical health or mental health precludes successful completion of his/her academic course work, the student may receive a health leave of absence or withdrawal from the University, upon recommendation by the appropriate physician or therapist of the University Health Services. Normally, the leave of absence/withdrawal will result from the student's voluntary efforts. In exceptional circumstances involving life-threatening behaviors, a student may be asked to leave the University involuntarily until those serious circumstances have been controlled. During the period of a health leave of absence, the student must maintain his/her status by registering for Continuous Enrollment and paying the Program Fee. Accordingly, the Graduate School will adjust the student's statute of limitations for the duration of the leave of absence. The full policy is available in the Graduate School Bulletin and from the Office of the Graduate Dean or the Office of the Graduate Registrar.
1. Voluntary Withdrawal:
Graduate students voluntarily withdrawing from the University must send a letter to the Graduate Dean, via their Graduate Program Director, indicating the reasons for the request. The student's Graduate Program Director must endorse the request and attest to the student's current academic standing. The student, or Graduate Program Director on his/her behalf, must still complete Add/Drop forms for all courses in which he or she is enrolled.
2. Failure to Enroll:
Graduate students who have not enrolled will automatically be withdrawn from the University for failure to maintain continuous enrollment (see Penalty for Not Enrolling by the Deadline).
3. Administrative Withdrawal:
Graduate students may be administratively withdrawn from the University, after due notice, for failure to satisfy overdue financial obligations or to comply with administrative requirements of the University. See the "General Information" section of the current Graduate School Bulletin for further information.
4. Academic Dismissal:
A graduate student who in any two semesters, consecutive or otherwise, has semester averages of below 2.8 is subject to academic dismissal upon recommendation of the Graduate Program Director and approval by the Dean of the Graduate School.
5. Unsatisfactory or Unreasonable Progress:
Graduate students who are not making satisfactory or reasonable progress toward the completion of their degree program are subject to termination. Upon the recommendation of the Graduate Program Director and the approval of the Dean of the Graduate School, students will be notified of any formal termination by the Graduate School.
j. Absences for Religious Reasons
Chapter 151C of the Massachusetts General Laws as amended guarantees that "any student in an educational or vocational training institution, other than a religious or denominational educational or vocational training institution, who is unable, because of his religious beliefs, to attend classes or to participate in an examination, study, or work requirement on a particular day shall be excused from any such examination or study or work requirement, and shall be provided with an opportunity to make up such examination, study, or work requirement which he may have missed because of such absence on any particular day; provided, however, that such makeup examination or work shall not create an unreasonable burden upon such school. No fees of any kind shall be charged by the institution for making available to the said student such opportunity. No adverse or prejudicial effects shall result to any student because of his availing himself of the provisions of this section."

A spokesperson at the Federal Aviation Administration said they are reconsidering the requirement to turn off your gadgets on the plane while landing and taking off. The F.A.A.'s deputy assistant administrator for public affairs said:
"With the advent of new and evolving electronic technology, and because the airlines have not conducted the testing necessary to approve the use of new devices, the FAA is taking a fresh look at the use of personal electronic devices, other than cellphones, on aircraft."
Odds are a lot of you have heard the tired phrase "please turn off all electronics prior to take off and landing" when taking a flight. The idea here is that they may interfere with the pilot's equipment. Of course, with the growing popularity of tablets like the iPad, there's been a significant amount of public push-back on this policy, since air travel is one of the best use cases for these kinds of devices.
The problem is, every individual tablet model has to be tested on an empty plane in flight, and repeated for each different model of aircraft that it wants to be certified for. As you can imagine, this can quickly become an expensive affair for airlines. It's worth noting that the F.A.A. isn't showing any interest in updating their policy for smartphone usage While it certainly makes sense for Apple to be getting friendly with investors by dishing out dividends, maybe they could spend some of that money to get iPads approved at least on U.S. flights.
Not that it needs any help, but it would be a huge selling point if the iPad was one of the few tablets you could use through the entire duration of a flight. It's too bad that the reconsideration isn't including smartphones, since the only real difference between them and tablets at this point is size.

Ionia unable to keep up in offensive battle with Thornapple-Kellogg
The Ionia boys basketball team had a strong offensive showing in its first game under new head coach Mike DeLap Tuesday night, but foul trouble and defensive miscues hurt the Bulldogs as they fell to Thornapple-Kellogg by a score of 72-59.
"We knew coming in we were going to be rebuilding the program, with six of our top players graduated from last year," DeLap said. "Rebuilding is never easy and we are taking it one step at a time.
We scored 30 more points than (T-K) this year and that means our offense is being rebuilt. Now we have to work on rebuilding our defense.
"We beat them in the first quarter, then tied them in the third quarter. The foul trouble early took us out of our chemistry."
The Bulldogs started the game strong, scoring the first two baskets of the game on makes by senior Austin Wolcott, then battled through the quarter to take a 13-12 advantage. The Trojans held a one-point lead late in the second, then finished the quarter on a 6-0 run to take a seven-point advantage into the break.
Ionia kept pace throughout the third and the first few minutes of the fourth before T-K was able to put together another run to pull away.
Wolcott finished the night with a team-high 14 points. Sophomore Brendan Bledsoe hit five three-point baskets in his varsity debut to finish with 15 points.
Sophomore forward Bryce Cashner scored 11 in his first varsity game, while Austin Gregory finished with nine points.
DeLap took over the Bulldog program back in July, after the summer league season. He said that has given him very limited time to work with the team, so he expects to see a great deal of improvement over this first month of the 2012-13 schedule.
"We are under the gun. I didn't get this team until July, so I have had only about three weeks with them, so gives us two or three more weeks and hopefully we will turn some heads."
Ionia (0-1) will travel to DeWitt on Friday to open Capital Area Activities Red play against the Panthers.

When friends from several cities want to get together and have fun, there's nothing better than a day spent fishing with a Cedar Key charter guide. And you get to take dinner home too. This group went out with Jim Keith and Jimbo Keith and came home with their limit. They also had to practice their "catch and release" technique with the other fish they hooked.
Capt'n. Danny Allen is taking this week off to do a little fishing. He got some time to go out last week with Mr. Ron of Colorado, pictured. The Capt'n. and Mr. Ron caught 15 knots of wind out of the Northeast with no water clarity. But, hey, they killed it for four hours, and boated eight reds and eight legal trout. These two specklers were 21.5 inches and another four were 19.75 inches.
It was a heck of a day for the conditions, said Capt'n Danny. Good work Ron...
To celebrate National Wildlife Refuge Week 2012, the Lower Suwannee NWR had several events throughout the week. The celebratory ribbon cutting for the grand opening of the Lower Suwannee National Wildlife Refuge classroom was anticlimactic compared to the exciting events for the remainder of the day.
Hello everyone. September is down in the books – it was a fine month for fishing and or just simply being in Cedar Key, Florida.
By Capt. Brylee
Special to the Beacon
Florida veterans wishing to enter the commercial fishing industry may soon be able to do so more easily thanks to changes made at the Sept. 5-6 Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) meeting in Tampa.
These changes are anticipated to take effect on Veterans Day, Nov. 11, 2012.
The Commission implemented a new program that will modify income requirements for Florida veterans seeking a commercial restricted species endorsement license.
Trophy bass tagging study already revealing
This past spring, Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) biologists tagged 136 trophy largemouth bass greater than eight pounds in Florida's public waters. Each trophy bass had a yellow plastic dart tag inserted into the back of the fish just below the dorsal (back) fin.
Each tag has a unique number that identifies a monetary reward value and information on how to report catches.
The Chiefland Area Athletic Association will host a turkey shoot from 9 a.m. till 1 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 18, at Strickland Park in Chiefland. The family event will offer prizes, food, drink and T-shirts. The Deer Camp Expo will also be on-hand, offering bow adjustments, bow supplies, bow maintenance and helpful tips and pointers. The event supports the CAAA.
A tournament to honor the memory of Lucas "Luke" Corbitt will be held Sept. 1 at the Waccasassa Boat Ramp in Gulf Hammock. Cash prizes of $100 will be rewarded for biggest red, biggest trout and biggest combination.
There is a $25 entry fee. Call 352-273-5831 for advanced registration. Day-of registration starts at 6 a.m.

Actor Morris Chestnut Loses $1 Million In Sale Of California Home
According to TMZ reports:
"American Horror Story" star Morris Chestnut is in real-estate HELL … he just unloaded his Hidden Hills, CA home, and got screwed out of a million bucks in the process.
The 43-year-old actor bought the 5,522 square-foot digs back in 2007 for a whopping $3.3 million.
It must have seemed like a good investment at the time — 6-bedrooms, 7-baths, horse stables, a giant pool … tennis courts … fruit trees … the whole nine yards.
Fast forward to Jan 2011 … Chestnut tried to sell off the estate for $3 million, but no cigar. He finally managed to unload it in July 2012 … but for a mere $2.3 million, aka a 7-figure screw job.

Somewhere Everywhere, Big Brother Is Smiling: Congress Sells Your Privacy For A Cool $84 Million
from the $84M-isn't-money;-it's-a-motive-with-a-universal-adapter deptIn case you were wondering why so many Democrats switched sides during the most recent CISPA vote, the answer is exactly what you think it is: $$$. And lots of it. Last year's CISPA vote only managed to secure 40 Democrat supporters. This time around, the number leapt to 92.
[A] new coalition of special interests, which include America's two largest cellular service providers AT&T, Inc. and Verizon Wireless -- jointly owned by Verizon Communications Inc. and Vodafone Group Plc. -- as well as two of the nation's largest software firms Microsoft Corp. and Intel Corp., came together to create a similar data grab bill (Microsoft has since renounced its support). Security firms like Symantec Corp. also backed the bill.$84 million is change-of-heart money, although one imagines those contributing checked and double-checked their "sponsored" representatives to make sure they were all on the same page. As DailyTech points out, nearly $86 million went into the SOPA push and most of that turned out to be wasted money.
Pushing the bill through was $84M USD in funding from special interest backers.
Last Monday, two hundred IBM executives visited the White House to make a last minute push for CISPA. Whatever they said or did must have been very persuasive. By the end of the day, 36 new sponsors had signed on to the bill, up from a very lonely two previous to IBM's visit. Unsurprisingly, financial motivation was involved, according to numbers gathered by Maplight.
New co-sponsors have received 38 times as much money ($7,626,081) from interests supporting CISPA than from interests opposing ($200,362).Now, it's up to Senate to come up with some sort of cyber-security bill that has a chance to get passed and dodge a Presidential veto. Fortunately, there's no clear favorite at the moment (although Lieberman's bill seems to have the President's blessing) and with the limited number of voters, the Senate is much more prone to be gridlocked by partisan politics. Of course, a daylong visit by a few lobbyists could win over just enough hearts and minds to be dangerous. In the meantime, it would probably do these senators a world of good to hear from their constituents, if only to remind them that there are plenty of actual people out there who have to live with the consequences of bad legislation.
Members of the House in total have received 16 times as much money ($67,665,694) from interests supporting CISPA than from interests opposing ($4,164,596).

The International Commission on Mathematical Instruction, ICMI, was first established at the International Congress of Mathematicians held in Rome in 1908, on the suggestion of the American mathematician and historian of mathematics David Eugene Smith. The first President of ICMI was Felix Klein and the first Secretary-General was Henri Fehr. From the very beginning, the international journal L'Enseignement Mathématique, founded in 1899 by Henri Fehr and Charles Laisant, was adopted as the official organ of ICMI - which it is still today. ICMI also publishes, under the editorship of the Secretary, a Bulletin appearing twice a year. (Starting with Bulletin No. 39, December 1995, the ICMI Bulletin is accessible on the internet.)
After an interruption of activity between the two World Wars, ICMI was reconstituted in 1952, at a time when the international mathematical community was being reorganized, as an official commission of the International Mathematical Union, IMU. This defines the formal position of ICMI also today. Thus, the Terms of Reference of ICMI are established by the General Assembly of IMU, which is also responsible for the election of the Executive Committee of the Commission. Furthermore, the far majority of the funding of ICMI comes from IMU.
As a scientific union, IMU is a member organization of the International Council of Scientific Union, ICSU. This implies that ICMI, through IMU, is to abide to the ICSU statutes, one of which establishes the principle of non-discrimination. This principle affirms the right and freedom of scientists to associate in international scientific activities regardless of citizenship, religion, political stance, ethnic origin, sex, and suchlike. Apart from observing general IMU and ICSU rules and principles, ICMI works with a large degree of autonomy.
More information about the history of ICMI can be found in a paper by former ICMI Secretary A. Geoffrey Howson:

Janssen accepts both criticism, high expectations
TORONTO -- The way Casey Janssen sees it, the criticism that has been directed his way in recent weeks isn't necessarily a bad thing.
Janssen has been one of the most reliable relievers in baseball over the past several years, but things haven't been so easy lately. As he's struggled, there have been scattered boos, missed save opportunities and lots of people searching for answers.
TORONTO -- The way Casey Janssen sees it, the criticism that has been directed his way in recent weeks isn't necessarily a bad thing.
Janssen has been one of the most reliable relievers in baseball over the past several years, but things haven't been so easy lately. As he's struggled, there have been scattered boos, missed save opportunities and lots of people searching for answers.
It's an awkward situation for any reliever, but Janssen does his best to put a unique spin on it. There's a reason why the spotlight is on him.
"With all this raise and concern, I feel like it's indirectly a backhanded compliment to me, because the expectations are so high, and rightfully so," Janssen said. "I put that on myself every day. When things aren't going your way, everybody is wondering what the heck is going on, because I've shown well for so long that people don't see this out of me very often."
Janssen's issues can be traced back to the All-Star break when he decided to spend a couple of days in the Dominican Republic with his fiancee. Once there, Janssen came down with a severe case of food poisoning and lost 10 pounds.
That forced Janssen to miss a couple of games, but even when he returned later that week, the California native was hardly himself. Healthy or not, the Blue Jays needed him during a tough stretch, and Janssen went on to pitch in five of the club's next eight games. His velocity was down, his command was off and there wasn't exactly a large margin for error, considering his role.
Janssen would rather not focus on the food poisoning, but it's reasonable to consider that it played at least some part in his performance. Prior to the All-Star break, Janssen had a 1.23 ERA while striking out 14 and walking one in 22 innings. After the break, he allowed nine runs and struck out three in his first 10 appearances.
Coincidentally, Tampa Bay reliever Joel Peralta was in a similar situation. He came down with an illness during the break and was placed on the disabled list upon his return.
"I never considered it," Janssen said of going on the DL. "Every time I'm able to pitch, I'm going to pitch. It doesn't matter. No one feels great all of the time, especially bullpen guys. We're trained to pitch with not our best stuff, and I think I'm the type of pitcher that can get away with not having my best fastball, or have my best something, and just figure out a way to get three outs. I've been doing it a long time, and I'm just in this little stretch right now where it's not going my way."
Janssen's struggles reached a potential breaking point last week when Blue Jays manager John Gibbons decided to go in another direction. First it was left-hander Brett Cecil recording a four-out save over Boston and then it was rookie Aaron Sanchez pitching two scoreless innings on Saturday.
A lot of proven closers would have made waves after that by speaking out, but Janssen chose a different path. In his opinion, the way he had been pitching didn't give him the right to complain.
"I don't want to make it a story," Janssen said. "I just love to pitch. I'll take every opportunity to pitch that I can. I'm going to treat every [appearance] like a tryout. It's Gibby's choice to pick me or to pick whoever he picks. I just want him to remember my name by pitching well."
Janssen does have some positives to build from. He's looked a lot better during his last two outings with a slight uptick in velocity and noticeable improvement on his control. He was back in the closer's role on Sunday, and with a month remaining in the season, there's time to prove that the recent stretch was an aberration and not the norm.
The numbers would seem to back that up. From 2011-13, Janssen was one of five relievers to post an OPS allowed under .600. At the All-Star break, Janssen had the lowest ERA (1.45) in save situations of any pitcher in baseball over the past five seasons with a minimum 50 innings pitched. Craig Kimbrel was second at 1.50.
Still, that does little to ease the sting from the way things have gone for both Janssen and his team lately.
"Hotter than any team in baseball at one point, tasting first place as late as we were there," Janssen said almost in disbelief. "Even in the Wild Card situation, as late as we were in the Wild Card situation. It was exciting. It was something I dreamt about as a little kid, to be in the playoffs.
"With every loss -- some of it is my own doing -- but seeing it slip away, it kills me. It kills all the hard work, all the reps, everything you do in the offseason to get to this point of being the best pitcher you can possibly be and then to not see the results, not doing your own part, it gets you frustrated, and it's tough to swallow knowing that with every game we play and every loss, the mountain keeps getting bigger and bigger."

Dog Park Could Be Coming To City
ST. MARYS — The paws are churning on a possible dog park in the city of St. Marys.
Members of the St. Marys Parks Advisory Board discussed the possibility of adding a dog park at Kiwanis Park, located off Beech Street. Robin Willoughby, the 4th Ward Councilor and a Kiwanian, noted the back portion of the park could make an ideal location for a dog park — a facility she has been vocal about for the past several years.
"There's water out there and I think it would be a benefit for the community to have a dog park," Willoughby said. "We have a lot of people very interested in it and the location is next to K.C. Geiger Park."
The back half of the park has an old baseball field that is reportedly no longer in use. St. Marys Mayor Greg Freewalt said running a fence across the field could be an option.
"I don't want to speak for all Kiwanians, but I feel they shouldn't object to it," Willoughby said. "There will be rules and regulations."
The tract of land is approximately an acre. Freewalt said if the park gains traction, a large one could be built in the future.
"We have people from St. Marys who have to go to Celina to go to the dog park," Willoughby said. "Really, it's a plus for the community."
No time table has been set for construction of the park. Willoughby said she planned to talk to Kiwanians to make sure all are on board with the project.
Board members also discussed Pat McGowan's proposal to develop a master plan for park development. McGowan said he wanted to create a plan that would outline future developments in city parks.
Freewalt said there is currently a process in place for park improvements and developments. Freewalt said he didn't want anything that tied the hands of officials without having flexibility.
"It's going to have goals and it's going to say what you are going to do," McGowan said of his plan. "If you publish that in the newspaper, then the people have the opportunity to give their input and I think you will get less push back on major projects."
Board member Chris Botkin said he believed there is enough public engagement involved in the development of the park because of the park board as well as city council. Botkin noted any major projects must pass through city council for approval.
"But, I don't have anything against it, in theory, a master plan," Botkin said, noting there is a map of proposed improvements for the park. "They do keep track of everything that's been proposed and if there's enough public interest in it, they will go forward with it."
Botkin said he would like to see a more specific proposal for a master plan. Board members did not vote on the topic.
Safety-Service Director Tom Hitchcock updated board members on the progress of the frisbee golf course being installed at the park behind the snow hill. During an April meeting, a group of residents proposed a course, which was approved. Hitchcock said the plan is to have the course ready by the end of the weekend.
Hitchcock also noted the city is prepared to meet the field needs for the youth soccer program.
By the end of the week, Hitchcock said more than 4,000 people have played the miniature golf course at K.C. Geiger Park. Freewalt said when the course opened, he hoped for 5,000 people to play it by he end of the season.
"We are on course for certain," Freewalt said. "And the great thing is that the people who are working it want more times out there. Before we had trouble."
Hours for the course are posted outside the concession stand as well as on the city's website and Facebook page.

The major in English Education prepares the student for a career as a high school teacher in grades 9-12. The English part of the program includes most of the coursework required for the standard English major, but it also includes a course in Young Adult Literature and four additional credits in writing courses. A minor in a related field is also required. The Education part of the program includes 34 credit hours of coursework in professional education, 12 of which have to do with the student teaching semester. Our graduates are ready to teach composition and a wide variety of literature. They are also ready, if they so desire, to seek international teaching jobs for which a master's degree or doctorate is not required. If the student takes our TESOL minor, he or she can be additionally certified to teach English as a second language in U.S. public schools. The TESOL minor is also a wonderful job-search advantage for graduates who want to teach overseas.

Forget Worldwide LLC
My partner and I are young entrepreneurs. We are into technologies from how people search on line to all the little gadgets that let you know someone is on the leading edge. We like different. We like unique. We like anything that gives us 1 extra second of impression. That extra second might be the stock of paper we use for our business card, a video on one of our websites...or maybe the logo you design.
We will be targeting males/females equally and internationally in the 25 to 45 age range. The majority of the products we distribute will be in and around entertainment. People with disposable income that like to have fun or the companies that distribute to this audience
We want a logo that catches the eye. Nothing that looks childish like a cartoon character or humorous, but something more hip/cool. We are not set on a color scheme, but it will need to appeal to both male and female. Blacks, reds, yellows, blues, whites are choices that come to mind. We would like to stay away from pinks, purples, greens, or browns.
You might be thinking about a play on the shape of the world or just an interesting way to display the company name, but we don't want to put you in a box here. Show us what you got.

For more than 20 years, pine trees surrounded Ellen Sard's Sudbury backyard. But in June her half-acre was transformed by crews clearing vegetation around high-voltage transmission lines for NStar.
In less than two hours, the pines she had planted were all chopped down.
"It was such a violation," said Sard, who acknowledges that NStar has an easement on the property. Now, 22 stumps dot her backyard, and she has a clear view of the towering power lines.
Officials at NStar, which came under heavy criticism after widespread power outages last year, say clear-cutting around transmission lines is the only way to guarantee consistently reliable power. But communities are increasingly up in arms over the the utility's integrated vegetation management program, launched in 2010. In Sudbury, tensions between tree cutters and residents ran so high that a police detail was called in to keep the peace.
"For them to come in and just clear cut — it's like throwing the baby out with the bathwater," said Michael Retzky, chairman of the Park and Recreation Commission in Needham, where officials vow to fight the utility's plans. "It doesn't make any sense."
This year, NStar has cleared trees in Sherborn, Framingham, Natick, Wayland, and Sudbury. Now they are starting on a 17-mile stretch of transmission lines that runs from Southborough to West Roxbury.
"Trees are the number-one cause of power outages," said Michael Durand, spokesman for NStar. "As a utility, we have an obligation to do everything in our power to prevent them."
Durand pointed to a massive Northeast blackout in 2003 that cut off power to nearly 50 million people in the United States and 10 million more people in Canada after high-voltage lines came in contact with tree branches in northeastern Ohio. That blackout, he said, is what inspired NStar's new policy.
So far, communities have had no success stopping NStar, which holds easements for its rights of way and, like all utilities, is required by federal regulations to have a vegetation management plan to prevent power outages along transmission lines.
A measure requiring utilities to review such plans with the state Department of Public Utilities and affected municipalities is awaiting approval in the Legislature and could become effective early next month, said state Representative Denise Garlick, a Needham Democrat who worked on the measure.
The measure would strengthen the town's ability to negotiate with NStar over mitigation and restoration, she said, but it would not legally bar NStar from continuing its work.
Last August, Tropical Storm Irene knocked out power for more than 500,000 NStar customers. Last October, more than 200,000 NStar customers lost power after a snowstorm — and many of those outages, said Durand, were caused by falling trees. The utility is currently facing the possibility of hefty fines over its response to the two storms after the Department of Public Utilities was flooded with complaints, according to a spokeswoman for the department. Some of those complaints, she said, concerned the utility's failure to cut down trees that ended up falling into power lines.
Under NStar's policy, no trees with the potential to grow higher than 3 feet will be allowed to remain under high-voltage transmission wires; no trees with the potential to grow higher than 15 feet will be allowed to remain in the border zone. The policy does not apply to lower-voltage distribution power lines that run along neighborhood streets.
Needham officials are pushing for a middle ground — selective cutting, for example — but NStar says that the only sure way to prevent large-scale outages is to take trees down completely. Cutting off the tops of trees, as the utility used to do, is no longer working, said Durand — it actually weakens trees over time and makes them more prone to toppling onto wires.
About 4 miles of high-voltage transmission lines run the length of Needham: The trees within 100 feet of them will be clear-cut.
The lines run along commuter rail train tracks, through neighborhoods and alongside town fields, like DeFazio Park. The tracks are elevated — town officials fear erosion if the trees anchoring the dirt are removed — and neighbors say the trees that will be cut serve as a buffer for neighbors from the sound, pollution, and view of the train tracks. Residents worry that the value of their homes will fall if the trees are chopped down.
"Right now, my house faces vegetation," said Paul Kelly, an abuttor who lives near DeFazio. "If they do what they say, my house will face scorched earth."
In Sudbury, selectmen voted symbolically earlier this year to declare a moratorium on NStar's clear-cutting. "It didn't didn't have any teeth to it," said Larry O'Brien, chairman of the board. "We don't have the power to stop NStar."
The police detail was called in to keep things calm as tree crews worked. Still, between the end of the workday on June 20 and the morning of June 21, someone vandalized tree-clearing machinery, causing $5,000 worth of damage, according to Sudbury Police Lieutenant Scott Nix.
The incident is still under investigation, he said.
In Wayland, Meadowview Road resident Robert Noa filed a lawsuit in Middlesex Superior Court to stop NStar from cutting down his trees.
It bought him a little time, but early this month a judge ruled that NStar's easement does, indeed, grant the utility the right to clear his property.
"I want hot water and cold beer just as much as anybody else does, I really do," Noa said. "I am not and never have been trying to prevent them from doing maintenance and tree work. But . . . their policy has been topping and trimming trees. And it has demonstrably worked."
Still, Needham officials remain hopeful that they can persuade NStar to scale back. Garlick is working with NStar to plan a meeting so town representatives can lay out their case.
No one in town is disputing the need for reliable electricity, but town officials say that must be balanced against the fact that clear-cutting trees is too drastic a solution.
"Even if they have the technical authority to do what they're proposing to do," said Needham selectman Moe Handel, "I don't believe they have the moral right to degrade the quality of people's lives along a path that their transmission lines go through."Evan Allen can be reached at email@example.com.

Karma - It's All Good ( is the tagline)
We are from Jacksonville, FL and Karma will be located in Ponte Vedra Beach an upscale area 40 minutes from downtown in a business complex that features a Ruth Chris Steakhouse. We have been in the nightclub business for many years and have enjoyed the southern hospitality that Jax offers especially their comfort food. so we are taking a combination of great southern comfort food favorites and combining it with live entertainment for the ultimate Karma experience.
We aim to be a funky family friendly restaurant and lounge specializing in Global comfort foods with incredible dishes from across the US and abroad with healthy portions at recession proof prices.Therefore we want to have broad appeal to the couples and families who live near by. After dinner, guests will be able to kick back their feet to relax or dance to live local bands and DJ's for some late night partying. The restaurant/lounge will be the kind of like being in your living room - a place that people feel at home in.
We are looking for a logo to represent Karma with it's tagline (It's all good)
Here are a few things to think about:
1. No Cartoons - we want it to be playful but not cheap or childlike
2. Please stay away from any type fonts that would assocaite us with being a middle eastern or indian restaurant especially since Karma the word comes from Buddaism.
3. Nothing too elegant - we do not want to come across as being too fancy. We want the locals to feel like they can afford to eat here a couple times a week.
4. We want something that stands out and easy to read from street and building signage .Again being careful not to be too fancy.
5. Feel free to incorporate shapes, geometrics, astrological - Karma cirlce (what goes around comes around)
6. "Jimmy Buffet jams with the Dalai Lama. or " Cheeseburger in Nepal!
Please feel free to experiment with warm and inviting colors.
The files we will require are:
Print file format - .ai (CMYK)
Web file format - .jpg and layered .psd (RGB)
Please do not use any stock images or clip art in the logo

The personal style of the First Lady has fascinated the world for centuries — from Jackie O's sunnies, to Nancy Reagan's bow blouses, to Michelle Obama's midi skirts, every outfit that a president's wife dons says something about her, our culture, and the economy. And given that we're facing what is sure to be a close presidential race, our collective eye is focusing in on current First Lady Michelle Obama and her potential replacement, Ann Romney.
Now, this should go without saying, but we love when an accomplished, smart, and elegant woman has a knack for style, too. So, we've been keeping an eye on what Michelle Obama and Ann Romney have sported in recent months, and gathered plenty of real-life, real-woman style advice from their best looks. In the process, we found a few closet conundrums, too — don't worry, ladies, we've got fixes for those. The result? A pitch-perfect fashion prescription, tailored to Michelle's and Ann's unique styles, to ensure a chic and sophisticated trail to the White House.

Two freighters containing 56,500 metric tons of hard red winter wheat grown by farmers in Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas have departed Galveston, Texas, for the Iraqi port of Umm Qasr.
The two shipments are enough to feed 4.5 million Iraqis for a month, according to officials with USDA and the U.S. Agency for International Development (AID). They are the first of a series that will provide up to 610,000 metric tons of food worth $300 million to feed the Iraqi people.
The United Nations World Food Program is providing an additional $260 million for food distribution and logistical support in Iraq as U.S. and British troops try to restore order following the collapse of the Iraqi regime.
The wheat was provided through the Bill Emerson Humanitarian Trust, a U.S. emergency food aid program named for the late congressman from the Missouri Bootheel. USDA has announced the release of 200,000 tons of wheat from the trust with another 400,000 metric tons to be made available as needed.
"When milled, today's shipment of 28,000 tons of hard red winter wheat will provide every man, woman and child in Iraq with almost 1 pound of flour," said Jim Butler, deputy undersecretary for Farm and Agricultural Services at USDA, speaking at a ceremony in Galveston.
"This shipment is only the beginning," he said. "Working hand-in-hand with other government agencies, the World Food Program and private voluntary organizations, we will work to make sure the food reaches the people who need it most."
Although some observers have said the relief effort seemed to be slow in getting under way, USDA and AID officials said the U.S. government is fully prepared to provide humanitarian and reconstruction assistance to the people of Iraq.
"For the last several months, U.S. AID, working in close coordination with the State Department and other U.S. agencies, has planned for a possible humanitarian emergency by pre-positioning stockpiles of emergency supplies and commodities," said Fred Schieck, deputy administrator of U.S. AID. "We have also been making contingency plans for reconstruction activities."
Congresswoman Jo Ann Emerson said it was gratifying to see the program named for her late husband being used to provide relief to the Iraqis.
"As President Bush has said time and again since Operation Iraqi Freedom began, our goal is to improve the lives of the Iraqi people," she said. "That involves not only dismantling the regime of Saddam Hussein but bringing food and medicine to places so the Iraqi people can live a normal life and have hope.
"The food aid made available through the Bill Emerson Humanitarian Trust makes that goal possible and will make a real difference in the lives of those Iraqi people who have been suppressed and starving for far too long."
