The Executive Session for State Court Leaders in the 21st Century (SJI-07-I-203, and SJI-11-I-064) brought together state court leaders including chief justices, judges, and court administrators, as well as key stakeholders to address an array of issues impacting the state courts, including:
- adapting to the budget crisis and leadership in times of limited resources;
- identification of essential principles for effective court governance;
- the tension between problem solving and decision making;
- the challenges social media pose to court legitimacy;
- how courts defend themselves from political attack; and,
- the concept of chief justices as civic leaders.
The SJI and Department of Justice, Bureau of Justice Assistance (DOJ/BJA) funded Executive Session recently released the fourth and fifth papers from the series. Additionally, the National Center for State Courts (NCSC) has created a Vimeo Feed that includes introductory videos explaining the purpose and significance of the papers. A brief explanation of each paper with a link follows:
A Case for Court Governance Principles
In this report, Utah Chief Justice Christine Durham and Utah State Court Administrator Dan Becker describe the limits to what structural changes like centralization can accomplish. Recognizing that court culture inherently stresses independence and self-interest, the authors propose eleven unifying principles to guide states as they seek to improve court performance.
Herding Lions: Shared Leadership of State Trial Courts
Retired Arizona Judge Barbara Mundell and Texas Chief Justice Wallace Jefferson put forward an approach based on the recognition that all courts within a state have a collective responsibility for the quality of justice. They urge that leadership be shared across the different levels of court structure and that local innovation be encouraged and, where effective, replicated statewide.
Opinions as the Voice of the Court: How State Supreme Courts Can Communicate Effectively and Promote Procedural Fairness
This paper discusses the nature of, and trends in, the formation of state supreme court opinions and the methods by which opinions are communicated to the press, the public, members of the bar, and online communities. It considers current practice in light of a field in social psychology called procedural fairness—a practical theory that explains what makes it likely that people are satisfied with and comply with decisions by authorities, such as judges.
Courts Are Conversations: An Argument for Increased Engagement by Court Leaders
Social media expert Garrett Graff explains the true significance of the arrival of social media as it alters the expectations and habits of American society. He advises state court leaders that they "must not only learn how to communicate with new tools; they must also envision new means of judicial engagement with the public through the new social media that can further advance the legitimacy of courts in a democratic society."
Juror and Jury Use of New Media: A Baseline Exploration
NCSC staff members Paula Hannaford-Agor, David Rottman, and Nicole Waters offer insights into the current and likely future use of new media by jurors at all stages of the process. The project explored the impact of the new media on jurors and jury decision-making as a basis for recommending steps to reconcile new media use with the adversarial process.

Imaginative and prescient, apart from being essential, can also be a sense that now we have to depend on to live our lives. However physical well being just isn't the only advantage of sports and video games.Participation in sports and video games fosters friendliness and broadmindedness among the many participants.Sportsmen overlook caste variations and non secular variations and become pleasant with one look upon the world as one sports and games have numerous educative worth.
Take a Hockey, Soccer or basketball player or any staff primarily based sportsman for that matter, coaching is finished together as a group and has a rewarding social facet, groups do a significant quantity of staff bonding in coaching, this precept may still switch to an athlete concerned in an individual sport, as Olympic runners nonetheless prepare with different runners for added competitors and the social side.
Alternatively it might the desire to simulate the extent of altitude the competitors can be played at, this was evident in England's preparation for the 2010 World cup in South Africa the place head coach Fabio Capello had his player practice at altitudes simillar to that they might be experiencing in the competition itself.
Nonetheless in case your stage of arousal is just too high there is a probability that you'll pressure things and both attempt to play the shot too quickly- thus taking the unsuitable choice and setting your self up for a bad point or within the worst case state of affairs chances are you'll be so 'psyched-up' that you end up swinging at fresh air.n2OwoRiKQiQ
Once in a while, such tensions can lead to violent confrontation among players or spectators within and past the sporting venue, as in the Football Warfare These tendencies are seen by many as opposite to the basic ethos of sports being carried on for its personal sake and for the enjoyment of its individuals.

I was dining alone with 3½ tear old Abel the other day, when he put a spoon into his glass of water. (His mother need not know about the 50 year old toy truck that helped feed him by ferrying grapes across the table.)
'It makes it bigger', Abel announced of his spoon in the water, so taken with this that he did not notice the photograph being taken,
'Like your magnifying glass', I suggested. He considered this for a moment. 'My magnifying glass is missing.' I feel sure he knows exactly where it is. He seems to think that things like to hide. Under the piano is a good spot.
But note the budding scientist: don't tell him he's wrong, when he is simply not in possession of enough facts and enough vocabulary to say more clearly what is happening. Let's see if he can find that magnifying glass!

It's a sight that conservationists have long been waiting for.
At the Healesville Sanctuary in Victoria, Australia, zookeepers captured the moment a rare baby tree-kangaroo emerged from its mum's pouch for the first time.
The video below shows the joey – a member of the endangered Goodfellow's tree-kangaroo – popping its tiny head out of the pouch. It then looks at its surroundings before smiling and going back inside (probably to take a nap).
Saying g'day: Healesville Sanctuary's new arrival, a rare tree kangaroo. The joey spent six months inside its mum's pouch before tentatively popping its head out for the first time. This is the first one ever born at the sanctuary. @zoosvictoria #7News pic.twitter.com/da4xOanLSB
— 7 News Melbourne (@7NewsMelbourne) September 12, 2018
The proud mum, Mani, and her breeding partner, Bagam, were successfully paired in 2016 as part of the sanctuary's conservation efforts. The jelly bean-sized newborn then spent six months growing inside the pouch until the big moment.
According to the zookeepers, the yet-to-be named joey will start to venture in an out of the pouch more and more in the coming months.
⚡ Newsflash! ⚡ There is a baby Goodfellow's Tree-kangaroo popping its head out of the pouch at #HealesvilleSanctuary! Repeat: there is a baby Tree-kangaroo at Healesville Sanctuary! Read more: https://t.co/0UEhcQ2FNr #babyanimals pic.twitter.com/yr2xoJVFdS
— Zoos Victoria (@ZoosVictoria) September 12, 2018
The Goodfellow's tree-kangaroo is a species native to Papua New Guinea. They are considered endangered, with about 2,000 individuals left in the wild.
The birth, the first ever of its kind at Healesville Sanctuary, is a welcome development for Zoos Victoria, who are working to save the tree kangaroo family from extinction.

Pound for Pound
The brave, inspiring story of one woman's recovery from a debilitating eating disorder, and the remarkable shelter dogs who unexpectedly loved her back to life.
"The dogs don't judge me or give me a motivational speech. They don't rush me to heal or grow. They sit in my lap and lick my face and make me feel chosen. And sometimes, it hits me hard that I'm doing the exact thing I say I cannot do. Changing."
Pound for Pound is an inspirational tale about one woman's journey back to herself, and a heartfelt homage to the four-legged heroes who unexpectedly saved her life.
For seven years, Shannon Kopp battled the silent, horrific, and all-too-common disease of bulimia. Then, at twenty-four, she got a job working at the San Diego Humane Society and SPCA, where in caring for shelter dogs, she found the inspiration to heal and the courage to forgive herself. With the help of some extraordinary homeless animals, Shannon realized that her suffering was the birthplace of something beautiful. Compassion.
Shannon's poignant memoir is a story of hope, resilience, and the spiritual healing animals bring to our lives. Pound for Pound vividly reminds us that animals are more than just friends and companions—they can teach us how to savor the present moment and reclaim our joy. Rich with emotion and inspiration it is essential reading for animal lovers and everyone who has struggled to change.
My Review
I was first drawn to this book by the book cover. I own three pitbulls. I used to have the impression that they were vicious dogs but now I am an advocate for them. All they know is love. Plus my three can't stop smiling. Back to the book.
Second I wanted to read this book because I am a sucker for a good animal story. I felt like I did get to know the author, Shannon. I have never experienced the urge to be model thin like the girls in magazines, although there was a short period where I did wish I was taller and bigger in the chest area. However as I grew older I grew out of this stage and love myself for who I was born. I am so glad that Shannon learned this with the help of the shelter animals she cared for before it was too late.
This book is spilt into parts. The first part talking about Shannon's life in her teens and collage years, then as she got older and was introduced to the animals. The final part focused more on the animals and a happy ending. There are some cute pictures featured in this book of some of the animals that Shannon and others at the shelter helped care for.

It includes the study of the size, structure, and distributions of different populations and changes in them in response to birth, migration, aging, and death. It also includes the analysis of the relationships between economic, social, cultural, and biological process influencing a population. The field of sociology draws on huge bodies of data generated by a variety of sources, including the U.S. Census Bureau. Demography is widely used for various purposes and can encompass small, targeted populations or mass populations. Governments use demography for political observations, scientists use demography for research purposes, and businesses use demography for the purpose of advertising. Statistical concepts essential to demography include birth rate, death rate, infant mortality rate, fertility rate, and life expectancy. These concepts can be further broken down into more specific data, such as the ratio of men to women and the life expectancy of each gender. A census helps provide much of this information, in addition to vital statistic records. In some studies, the demography of an area is expanded to include education, income, the structure of the family unit, housing, race or ethnicity, and religion. The information gathered and studied for a demographic overview of a population depends on the party utilizing the information. From the census and vital statistics gathered using a wide variety of sources, sociologists can create a picture of the U.S. population – who we are, how we are changing, and even who we will be in the future.

The Hanukkah heroine we need this holiday season
The tale of Hanukkah is a simple one: a righteous man and his family, the Maccabees, stand up to their oppressors and are rewarded with a relatively minor miracle, that of the oil needed to maintain the reclaimed synagogue's eternal light lasting not one day but eight.

The sign at the front of your business has one main function, to be noticed by people passing by. Your front sign is important, but logo design is more critical because of its broader function as a marketing tool.
A logo is more than a picture next to the name of your business. It's a symbol that represents your organization across all media—from your inn sign outside, to your website online.

Sitting outside on the screened porch on a beautiful and mild Spring morning (finally!). Listening. Looking.
After a while I open a page and read Marie Howe's poem, "The World." (Is this some kind of divine inspiration or something? I mean, this particular poem, on this particular morning?)
"I couldn't tell one song from another,
which bird said what or to whom or for what reason.
The oak tree seemed to be writing something using very few words. …
… I thought I was safe,
standing there,
but my death remembered its date:
only so many summer nights still stood before me, full moon, waning moon,
October mornings: what to make of them?"
There are no "routine" days, even though we come to think that way. Receive this day as the precious gift that it is from God.
Be thankful. You'll find yourself joyful!
Pastor Andy Ballentine

The movies make it seem like getting a root canal treatment is the worst thing to ever exist on earth. Many people on screen are even seen yelling and jumping out from their seats. However, this could not be farther from the truth. In fact, this treatment helps remove the pain a patient is feeling, not cause them one.
For those individuals who may have been experiencing pain, this might just be the best solution for you. Here are some symptoms to take note of:
Tooth Pain
Even the strongest man can feel weak when his tooth is in pain. This is usually the first sign that you need to get your root canal done. The teeth of patients typically get more sensitive and painful when they eat, bite down or when a certain level of pressure is applied.
Just because you have sensitive teeth doesn't mean you need to get a treatment right away. In fact, there are plenty of individuals whose teeth are prone to experiencing some level of sensitivity when their pearly whites are exposed to hot or cold food or drinks. However, if these elements are not in the picture and there is still pain involved, then it may be time to seek treatment right away.
Inflamed Gums
What are inflamed gums? Take a good look at your teeth and gums. The gums near your painful tooth may be showing symptoms that it is experiencing pain and pressure. Common symptoms include having swollen and red gums with some bumps on them. These indicate that there is severe decay inside the tooth, thereby affecting the surrounding area.
Decay and Discolouration
When your teeth rot due to the presence of cavities, the very enamel of your teeth can be destroyed. The bacteria spread to your nerves, killing the pulp within. When this happens, your tooth can experience darkening or discolouration.
These are some warning signs you should be aware of. When you experience tooth pain, again and again, it may be time to get a root canal treatment. Go and call Endodontic Group today to schedule an appointment.

Whether it's putting on muscle, increasing endurance, or just trying to look the best you can, it takes persistence. We know this too which is why we spent over 24 months developing AminoLast® based on the latest cutting edge research. We wouldn't settle for just another "me too" formulation. You want something different. We've created an amino acid product that tastes great, and brings something new to the market to help you reach your goals. Utilizing only the best ingredients without added ineffective amino's, we created a superior recovery and endurance BCAA superfuel. When you push yourself to the limit, your body pays the price. AMINOLAST® with AMMOJECT™ technology is the only product that delivers a high dose of BCAAs, powerful Leucine-enriched peptide amino acids, anti-cramping electrolytes and AMMOJECT, to help rid your muscles of waste products that can cause fatigue. AminoLast® contains Albion chelated minerals which are more bioavailable than other minerals for better muscle contraction. Even better, you only need a single serving per training session instead of "mega-doses" which do nothing more than burn a hole in your wallet. We aren't going to try to sell you on cheap amino acids like Glycine or Alanine either. From the first dose, you'll notice the difference. AminoLast® contains the revolutionary ingredient L-Ornithine-L-aspartate (LOLA), which has been shown to reduce ammonia and improve psychometric function. L-Ornithine-L-aspartate is able to reduce high blood ammonia levels induced either by ammonium chloride or protein ingestion. Furthermore, LOLA decreases protein breakdown and stimulates protein synthesis in muscle. BUILD ENDURANCE. BUILD CONFIDENCE. BUILD YOURSELF. JUST THE FACTS: SPEEDS RECOVERY AND REDUCES SORENESS PROVIDES 10G OF POWERFUL AMINO ACIDS LOADED WITH ELECTROLYTES UNLEASHES AMMOJECT™ TECHNOLOGY LASTS 30 WORKOUTS Frequently Asked Questions:What type of results can I expect from AMINOLAST®? Immediate. AMINOLAST® was formulated to work from the first dose by providing accurately dosed amino acids and electrolytes to your hard working muscle. Decreases in soreness and better hydration levels are supported by AMINOLAST® when used as directed. Is the AMINOLAST® formula based on real human clinical trials?Yes. AMINOLAST® has been in development for over 24 months and was actually supposed to be launched well before SizeOn Pre-Contest. You demanded a more cost effective amino acid solution so we decided to finally launch this revolutionary breakthrough at a price that is just right for any budget. There is no doubt that BCAA's are king when it comes to promoting recovery and electrolytes are essential to performance as well. There are numerous human trials to support the doses used in AMINOLAST®. Can I stack AMINOLAST® with other products?Yes. AMINOLAST® can complement virtually any product whether you are using a weight loss product such as ARSO® or a performance product such as GLYCOFUSE®. You can even mix it in with your vanilla MYOFUSION®, PRECISION PROTEIN or ISOFUSION® protein powders for a fruit flavored, high protein shake. There are literally hundreds of combinations when using this with other Gaspari Nutrition products such as ANAVITE®, HALODROL®, PLASMAJET®, etc. Supplement Facts Serving Size: 14 grams Servings Per Container: 30 IngredientAmount% Daily Value** Calories10 Protein2g4 Calcium (as Calci-K calcium potassium phosphate-citrate)92mg9 Magnesium (as Albion dimagnesium malate)20mg5 Sodium (as sodium chloride)25mg1 AMINOLAST Matrix10g† L-Leucine2500mg† L-Taurine2000mg† Leucine Peptides (as PepForm)2000mg† L-Isoleucine1250mg† L-Valine1250mg† L-Ornithine L-Aspartate (as AmmoJECT)1000mg† ** Percent Daily Value is based on a 2000 calorie diet.

I've tried a lot of different amino acids and Aminolast seems to work the best.About a month ago I altered my diet to where I'm consuming more slow burning foods like peanut butter, beef, fish throughout the day. Which I had done this in the past using creatine. This time while consuming the Aminolast I'm back to benching 250lbs. This is a record for me because in the past I had to take creatine in order to bench more than 250lbs. I Imagine that if I mixed this with creatine I would have a good combo.

On the official Oppo Mobile India Twitter handle, the Chinese firm has confirmed that it will be debuting the OPPO A83 smartphone on January 20. It is the same smartphone that was unveiled in China with a price tag of 1,399 Yuan (~Rs. 13,930) in December.
India will be receiving a slightly different model of the OPPO A83 smartphone. In China, the OPPO A83 is available with 4 GB of RAM and a battery of 3,090mAh capacity. However, according to Gadgets 360, the Indian edition of the smartphone includes 3 GB of RAM and a slightly bigger battery of 3,180mAh battery. The smartphone lacks fast charging capabilities.
What's unique about this smartphone is that it does not feature a fingerprint scanner. Users can rely on the facial recognition feature for unlocking the smartphone. Oppo claims that the face identification feature can recognize the user by scanning 128 facial features and then unlock the smartphone in just 0.18 seconds. The AI Beauty recognition technology makes it possible to snap beautified selfie shots through the 8-megapixel front-facing camera of the OPPO A83. A 13-megapixel camera is present on the back panel of the phone.
Be the shutterbug you always wanted to be. Equipped with an 8MP Front Camera and a 13MP Rear Camera, your photos will never go unnoticed. #CaptureTheRealYou #OPPOA83 pic.twitter.com/oVZemD47cb

5 tips anyone can use to be likeable at a networking event
Maeva Cifuentes
Your next big networking event is coming up. Imagine your elevator pitch could swoon the most obstinate tech investor, your outfit makes James Bond look like a hobo, and you've researched every attendee so deeply you know their grandmother's maiden name – are you still going to connect with the right people, the right way?
Being likeable at a networking event will help you form more meaningful connections with the right people. No matter how prepared you are, if you aren't likeable, you're losing business.
Of course, we are major advocates of coming to events well prepared. But true connection transcends preparation. Ultimately, building relationships – even business ones – always boils down to a human, emotional connection. People prefer to work with people they like.
Lucky for us, being likeable isn't something you're born with. It's a form of emotional intelligence (EQ) and is not always related to innate traits. You can learn and practice being likeable at networking events and elsewhere. Even if you aren't George Clooney.
At the upcoming MeltinLab in October, we expect over 350 attendees. That's a lot of people to meet. And a lot of people to remember.
Here are a few skills you can put into practice at your next event to immediately be more likeable and memorable:
Put your phone away
The easy part about this trick is you literally have to do nothing. When you catch the urge to take your phone out of your pocket – yes, even if it's just a quick-but-urgent response to a panicky client – don't do it, or do it in private.
Giving your undivided attention in a conversation means you are fully present and interested in the other person. Even a glance at your phone will make it seem like you're thinking about other things. It can make your conversation partner feel undervalued and like you'd rather be elsewhere.
Keep it in your pocket and show your interest in the person you're speaking to.
Ask questions about the other person
Instead of giving your practiced-until-perfect elevator pitch, try learning about others and their projects. You'll have a chance to present your business – they'll eventually ask you, and if they don't, it's okay. Asking genuine questions shows people you are interested in them, their business, and what they care about.
Even a simple clarification of what was said shows that you're listening, and you care about what they have to say.
Maintain eye contact while the other person is speaking
We know we're repeating ourselves, but we really want you to integrate this into your networking practice: stay present. Keep eye contact while someone is speaking to you.
Even if you manage to keep your phone politely hidden, looking around makes it seem like you are distracted and have somewhere else to go – or worse – someone else to talk to. Your conversation partner might not comment on your transgression, but neither might you win their business.
Everyone enjoys talking to someone who is paying attention.
Never talk badly about others
We don't care how badly the presenter screwed up her startup pitch. Never make fun or talk badly about people in front of others. They may laugh along with you, but people who speak badly of others are quickly regarded as hard to work with.
Also, resist the temptation to laugh along while John Doe is trash-talking another person. Smile politely and change the conversation. You never know who is watching!
Don't try to get everyone to like you
We know that this post is about getting more people to like you. We're not contradicting ourselves. The most likeable attribute in a person is authenticity. People can sniff out fakes miles away.
Understand that not everyone is going to like you – and you shouldn't try to change how you are to get them to. You will fail. The point of the above likeability exercises is to form deeper human (and business) relationships, and the only meaningful relationships are between two genuine people.
Are you ready to put your new skills to practice at your next networking event?
At MeltinLab, we want to create an environment where startups, business executives, and investors can form long-lasting, meaningful relationships with the right people. We want to grow the international and local tech ecosystem. And we believe that's through one connection at a time.
Register for our next event on October 17th. Who knows, maybe you'll meet the person that will change your business forever.

French writer, Simone de Beauvoir, once said, "there is something in the New York air that makes sleep feel useless," and thus, The City That Never Sleeps was born.
New York City is buzzing 24 hours a day, 7 days a week with endless things to do and sights to see, that even those who live in New York don't feel as though they've seen everything. From the breathtaking views, historic museums, fascinating people and so much more, you can be sure every day of your visit will be filled with excitement.
They say you can't see all of New York City in one day but taking a boat out on the Hudson River will give you a perfect view of the skyline. These four-hour tours bring you to the island for the opportunity to wander the grounds and see Lady Liberty up close. You can go inside the base of the statue and up to the observation deck for a breathtaking view of the city. After greeting Lady Liberty, the ferry will then take guests to Ellis Island for the chance to bask in the history of the immigration that took place there between 1892 and 1954. You will have the opportunity to wander the great hall and view exhibits that further explain the 12 million people who passed through the island.
The carriage seats up to four people including a Central Park connoisseur, who will point out historical sites around the park, as well as where certain movies were filmed. During New York Fashion Week, it is also likely there will be photoshoots going on throughout the park that you may ride past. NYC is flooded with eccentric people in show-stopping outfits during Fashion Week, who are sure to use Central Park's gorgeous back drop to get their close-up.
Walking down 5th Avenue is a must on any visit to the Big Apple, but even more so during New York Fashion Week. 5th Avenue is one of the most famous streets in New York City, with countless stores, museums, galleries and restaurants, it's hard to know where to begin. If your wallet doesn't stretch to these high-end shops, you'll feel fulfilled just by looking in the extravagant window displays that are carefully designed throughout the year.
Both sides of this famous street will be crawling with fashion moguls and models alike. So, channel your inner Audrey Hepburn and take your breakfast to eat outside of Tiffany's!
There will be moving artwork all over New York City during Fashion Week as people from all over the world use their bodies as a canvas during this glamourous event week. However, if you'd like to see a different type of art, one of the museums located on 5th Avenue is the exquisite Metropolitan Museum of Art. This sensational museum displays over 5000 years of art through all cultures and time periods and covers over 2 million square feet. This is the place where art comes alive, reveals new ideas, and unexpected connections between cultures. Walk up those famous steps and immerse yourself in history at the MET.
On the 70th floor in the Rockefeller Building there are 360-degree views of New York City from different indoor and outdoor viewing decks. Top of the Rock visitors are given a guided tour ticket option, where you will be assigned a tour guide who will walk you through the views and provide you with a detailed history of the Rockefeller building. No matter which ticket option you choose you will not be disappointed by what you see. Get an unobstructed overhead view of the hectic Fashion Week down below!
Explore the Big Apple During New York Fashion Week!
See all these things and more during your trip to New York City when you're not getting the VIP treatment through NYFW: The Experience. While you're not gallivanting around the city, enjoy all the perks of being a NYFW: The Experience guest. Aside from a ticket to a runway show, you will have exclusive access to meet & greets and Q&A's with industry professionals, luxury hospitality access, hair and make-up services, and many more insider extras. New York Fashion Week starts February 8th, that's less than week to get your Official Experience Package! Don't wait, book now by clicking the link below or filling out a form.

DLF-Aquifer Services Institutional Survey Report Washington, DC: Digital Library Federation, 9 March 2006.(http://www.diglib.org/aquifer/SWGisrfinal.pdf). - This 45-page report from the Digital Library Federation (DFL) Aquifer Services Working Group consists of summarized responses from DLF members "to discover user-services assessment efforts and to assess what services are desired by end users and institutions and how the Aquifer project might potentially meet these needs. Key findings of the survey include: 1) Use of digital collections and services is often assessed at the point of introduction or update, rather than systematically over time, 2) searching is the most common way that digital collections are used, 3) metadata standardization is the most commonly reported strategy for supporting digital collections, 4) budgetary, time, and personnel constraints challenge the ability of institutions to develop needed services, and 5) institutions and users desire cross-resource discovery tools and greater ability to personalize service options. A very useful feature of this report is the list of user studies undertaken by DLF institutions, with abstracts for each. - RT
Cohen, Daniel J. "From Babel to Knowledge: Data Mining Large Digital Collections" D-Lib Magazine 12(3)(March 2006)(http://www.dlib.org/dlib/march06/cohen/03cohen.html). - This is a fascinating account of how you can construct a search engine optimized for specific tasks such as finding course syllabi using simple technologies, access to such resources as Google's application program interface (API), and intelligent post-processing. A few conclusions from the author's research include: 1) More emphasis needs to be placed on creating APIs for digital collections, 2) Resources that are free to use in any way, even if they are imperfect, are more valuable than those that are gated or use-restricted, even if those resources are qualitatively better, and 3) Quantity may make up for a lack of quality. For explanations and justifications of these points see the article, which anyone building search systems should definitely do. - RT
Harnad, Stevan. "Maximizing Research Impact through Institutional and National Open-Access Self-Archiving Mandates" (2006)(http://eprints.ecs.soton.ac.uk/12093/). - A recent study by Tom Wilson ("Institutional Open Archives: Where Are We Now?") investigates item deposit rates at most UK institutional repositories (excluding ETDs where possible). After reviewing his findings, Wilson states: "By any measure it can hardly be claimed that the concept of open archiving has taken off in British universities and I don't think that any of its protagonists would claim otherwise. The movement is at an early stage, with something in the order of 12 per cent of UK universities involved and with a minuscule proportion of the total research output covered by the IOA [Institutional Open Archives]." Little wonder then that open access proponent Stevan Harnad has come to advocate mandatory self-archiving at the institutional and national levels as a solution to low institutional repository deposit rates. (Harnad suggests that there is "a spontaneous 15% baseline rate" for institutional repository deposits.) One might imagine that researchers would resist mandatory deposit; however, Harnad notes that a 2005 study by Alma Swan and Sheridan Brown found that only 5% of researchers would refuse to do so. He further notes that in the three institutions and one department (CERN, Queensland University of Technology, the University of Minho, and the University of Southampton's Department of Electronics and Computer Science) that have mandated deposit, the strategy appears to be working. Will publishers allow self-archiving? Harnad indicates that only 7% of publishers do not allow self-archiving. Why do it? Harnad deftly recaps the open access research impact argument. With possible national-level deposit mandates in the works, such as the American Center for CURES Act of 2005 and the Research Councils UK's Position Statement on Access to Research Outputs, mandatory deposit is a hot topic, and Harnad's heavily linked paper provides a good summary of the pro-mandate position. - CB
Levy, Stephen, and Brad Stone. "The New Wisdom of the Web" Newsweek (April 3, 2006)(http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/12015774/site/newsweek/). - The living web, web 2.0, online community - however you refer to the phenomenon of the web as a world forum, the simplicity and timeliness of publishing whatever you want is nothing short of revolutionary. This overview article is probably most valuable for those non-participants who'll read it in paper form later this week; bloggers and others are already critiquing it online, basically treating it as just another post, one opinion among many. In fact, while its content does provide a nice sampling of current web community trends and efforts to capitalize on them, the impact of the changes described in it is really driven home when you take the article as a lesson in itself about the current state of the infosphere. It used to be that a news weekly could start a debate when it introduced to the general population a topic previously known only to a few; today, numerous forums already exist in which aspects of web community are being discussed by countless individuals (not to mention many, many more simply using the web to share comments, images, audio and video, without the theorizing). Those of us engaged in this are already learning something from 'the wisdom of crowds' about the nature of what we're doing as we do it, and don't have much use for a snapshot of the ocean when we can wade in and swim whenever we want to. - JR
Stanger, Nigel, and Graham McGregor. Hitting the Ground Running: Building New Zealand's First Publicly Available Institutional Repository Dunedin, NZ: University of Otago, March 2006.(http://eprints.otago.ac.nz/274/). - This paper describes the rapid implementation of an institutional repository using open source software. Although they get high marks for rapidity out of the gate, and for a promising beginning, the paper is light on such details as to how the initial success will be sustained. The reader is also left to wonder how they plan on taking this pilot project for one of the university's schools and deploying it university-wide, if indeed they intend to do so. But those concerns aside, this can be a useful article for demonstrating how little it takes technically to get a repository launched and for achieving early success in terms of paper discovery and downloading. - RT
Suber, Peter. "Three Gathering Storms That Could Cause Collateral Damage for Open Access" SPARC Open Access Newsletter (95)(2006)(http://www.earlham.edu/~peters/fos/newsletter/03-02-06.htm#collateral). - The Internet is a-changin', and those changes may make old timers long for the days when it was an obscure, purely noncommercial enterprise. In this paper, noted open acces advocate Peter Suber previews three potential changes that you should be aware of: (1) the WIPO "Treaty on the Protection of Broadcasting Organizations," (2) threats to Net neutrality, and (3) fees for bulk e-mailers to circumvent major e-mail services' spam filters. These potential changes may not sound alarming, but they are harbingers of deeper changes in the fundamental nature of the Internet that may have significant long-term implications. Let's take one of them as an example: AOL and Yahoo want to charge bulk e-mailers to avoid spam filters. The implications? Here's what Suber says: "The program is insidious and would lead almost everyone to pay the fees if they could--account holders at Yahoo and AOL and the bulk mailers who send to Yahoo and AOL addresses. It would also lead other email providers to adopt similar policies or fear that they were leaving money on the table. This would harm everyone who sends or receives non-spam mass mailings. This newsletter is an example but only one of many. The program would harm every form of OA content delivered by email, from emailed eprints and listserv postings to journal current-awareness messages like tables of contents and the results of stored searches. It would hurt non-profit groups and informal communities that network by email, including academic and political groups. Cash-strapped operations relying on email for distribution would either be forced to shut down or face higher costs that threaten their stability." - CB
Wakimotoa, Jina Choi, David S. Walker, and Katherine S. Dabboura. "The Myths and Realities of SFX in Academic Libraries" The Journal of Academic Librarianship 32(2)(March 2006): 127-136. - The report of a three-fold study ("end-user survey, librarian focus group interviews, and sample SFX statistics and tests") to answer these questions regarding the use and effectiveness of an OpenURL resolver (SFX from ExLibris) in an academic setting: "How successful is the system in actually meeting the research needs of librarians and library users? Do undergraduate students, who have increasingly high expectations of online resources, think that SFX lives up to their expectations? Do librarians feel comfortable relying on SFX for accurate and consistent linking? Do the perceptions of librarians and library end-users reflect the reality of SFX usage?" Their conclusions? "Ultimately, this study showed that end-user expectations were slightly higher than their actual experiences of obtaining full text. The majority of the librarians were positive, however, reporting that SFX worked most of the time. Both groups had complaints about SFX and saw areas for improvement, but they still rely heavily on it for their research." - RT

Coal Mine Permit Processing - Frequently Asked Questions:
What is the Utah Coal Regulatory Program (UCRP)?
The mission of the Utah Coal Regulatory Program at the Division of Oil, Gas, and Mining is to regulate exploration for, and development of, coal in the State of Utah which:
- supports the existence of a viable coal mining industry to meet the nation's energy needs
- implements standards that safeguard the environment and protect public health and safety, and
- achieves the successful reclamation of land affected by coal mining activities.
What is a coal mine permit application?
A coal mine permit application is an application submitted to the Utah Division of Oil, Gas, and Mining by a party who wants to mine coal in the state of Utah. This application must address all of the regulations (Coal Mining Rules - Utah Administrative Code R645 et al)
How can I become involved if I have concerns about a coal mine permit?
The coal rules provide for public participation in the coal permitting process. When the application is determined "administratively complete", there is an advertisement in the local newspaper about the permit application for four consecutive weeks to notify the public that the application is ready for public review.
The comment period extends for 30 days after the last date of publication when written comments or objections to the application may be submitted by any person having an interest which is or may be adversely affected by the decision on the application. An informal conference may also be requested - this request must include a brief summary of the issues to be raised by the requestor at the conference.
These comments should be addressed to:
Utah Coal Regulatory Program
Division of Oil, Gas, and Mining
1594 West North Temple, Suite 1210
Salt Lake City, Utah 84114
Where and when can I get a copy of the coal mine permit application?
All applications for permits, permit changes, permit renewals, transfers, assignments or sales of permit rights will be on file with the Division of Oil, Gas and Mining in their Public Information Center at the address above for public inspection and copying after they have been received by the Division. Upon submission of an "administratively complete application", an applicant for a permit, significant revision of a permit under R645-303-220 or renewal of a permit under R645-303-230, the applicant will place a copy of the permit application in the County Courthouse where the mine is located.

Based on the Oscar-winning DreamWorks Animation film, Shrek The Musical is a Tony Award-winning fairy tale adventure, featuring all new songs from Jeanine Tesori (Thoroughly Modern Millie; Caroline, or Change) and a sidesplitting book by David Lindsay-Abaire. Shrek brings all the beloved characters you know from the film to life on stage and proves there's more to the story than meets the ears.
"Once upon a time, there was a little ogre named Shrek…." And thus begins the tale of an unlikely hero who finds himself on a life-changing journey alongside a wisecracking Donkey and a feisty princess who resists her rescue. Throw in a short-tempered bad guy, a cookie with an attitude and over a dozen other fairy tale misfits, and you've got the kind of mess that calls for a real hero. Luckily, there's one on hand… and his name is Shrek.
Shrek presents a treasure trove of creative opportunities, including costumes, sets, puppets (there is a fire-breathing dragon after all) and more! Irreverently fun for the whole family, Shrek proves that beauty is truly in the eye of the ogre.

How to Grill Vegetables
Grilled vegetables are something that can be made easily and can be served with pride. It's having a versatile use and can be served as topping for pizza, tossed with salad dressing, served as a side dish along with vegetarian meals, or wrap it in flat breads and use as a snack. Grilled vegetables are healthy and they tastes sweet as the natural sugars present in the vegetables comes out while grilling. Vegetables having good amount water in them are found to be ideal for grilling. Some of the commonly used vegetables include bell pepper, eggplant, corn on the cob, zucchini, summer squash, mushroom, cherry tomatoes, celery, potatoes etc. While some other vegetables like cauliflower, broccoli, leafy vegetables and carrots won't come up well.
Tips to Grill the Vegetables
1.   Before starting the grilling process you need to wash the vegetables thoroughly with baking soda or lime juice. This will help you to get rid off the residues of pesticides which may be present in the vegetables. Soak the vegetables in water for about thirty minutes and this will help them to avoid getting fire while grilling. Dry the vegetables with a clean and dry towel and cut the vegetables in to square shaped pieces.
2.   Instead of keeping the vegetables directly on to the grill you can blanch them for several minutes and then marinate them with good quality grilling mix. Allow marinate to set for about 15 minutes. Give the vegetables a light touch with the oil so as to prevent them from sticking on to the grill. Rather than keeping the vegetables directly on the grill you can also keep them in foil pouch or vegetable baskets for grilling.
3.    You can set your grill either in charcoal or on the gas top. If you are using skewers then thread the vegetables on the skewers and keep them on the grid of the grill. If it's a metal skewer then put oil on them before threading the vegetables. The wooden skewer can be soaked in water for about 30 minutes before starting the cooking and this will protect it from fire. Instead of skewers you can use vegetable basket or heavy duty aluminum foil pouch for grilling your favorite vegetables. You have to spray the vegetable baskets with pam before grilling.
4.   While starting the grilling process you need to separate the vegetables according to the time needed for grilling. Potatoes require more time for grilling than that of tomatoes. So start grilling with those vegetables which need more time for grilling. You have to turn the vegetables in every five minutes and can marinate them in between. Thus you will get a well marinated and uniformly grilled vegetable.
5.   Check the grilling of the vegetables with a fork and if you can insert a fork smoothly in to the vegetable then it is ready. Take the vegetables out from the grill and keep it aside for 5 minutes.
Now you can serve them.
