Back To ACC
Montel Harris Enrolls at Temple
By Matthew Osborne
Follow us at Twitter.com/SouthernPigskin. Become a fan at the SouthernPigskin.com Facebook Page
The leading rusher in Boston College history, Montel Harris was permanently dismissed from the Eagles' program in May due to repeated violation of team rules.
Former Boston College running back Montel Harris has enrolled in classes at Temple and will be immediately eligible to play for the Owls this fall.
The leading rusher in Boston College history, Harris was permanently dismissed from the Eagles' program in May due to repeated violation of team rules.
Harris, who almost certainly would have become the leading rusher in ACC history had he played a full season for the Eagles this fall, will reunite with former Boston College offensive coordinator Kevin Rogers, who now serves as Temple's quarterbacks coach.
While most transfers are forced to sit out one season due to NCAA rules, Harris is immediately eligible to participate at Temple because he received his undergraduate degree from Boston College and is now enrolled in graduate courses that are not offered at his previous school.
With the loss of Harris, Boston College will rely on Andre Williams, Rolandan "Deuce" Finch and Tahj Kimble to carry the load at running back this season. The Eagles averaged 130.9 yards per game on the ground in 2011.

Editorial: D.C. judge goes too far with ban
It's not hard to think of people we might like to see exiled from our hometowns on the grounds that they are dangerous, obnoxious or universally regarded as nuisances. Drunken drivers, to start with; dog owners who don't clean up after their pets; pickpockets; possibly even politicians. But in the United States, where the Constitution confers certain rights and privileges of citizenship — including the right to domestic travel, according to the Supreme Court — it is all but unheard of for courts to banish individuals from entire states and localities.
That's why the order by a Washington D.C. Superior Court magistrate judge, who banned an antiabortion protester from returning to the District of Columbia pending a court date next month, is so bizarre. What's next — a federal judge ruling the entire Atlantic seaboard off-limits?
No doubt, the magistrate judge, Karen Howze, was within her rights to be annoyed at Rives M. Grogan, an antiabortion activist who for years has made a hobby of disturbing the peace and getting arrested for it, especially around Capitol Hill. On Inauguration Day, Grogan, bearing a ticket, passed through security, then climbed a tree on the Mall within view of the Capitol. He proceeded to spend five hours in his perch, during and after President Obama's swearing-in and speech, waving a sign and shouting at the top of his lungs.
Authorities decided to let him be, until Mr. Grogan finally climbed down later in the day, whereupon he was arrested by U.S. Capitol Police. In the charging document, they accused him of disturbing the peace and, by breaking several branches above the heads of the crowd, "jeopardizing his life and the life of others."
Hauled into Superior Court for at least the dozenth time in the past couple of years, Grogan faced federal prosecutors, who asked that the judge ban him from the Capitol grounds, House and Senate office buildings, the Library of Congress and the Supreme Court. Fair enough.
But Judge Howze went a giant step further. As a condition of his release pending trial, she ordered Grogan, who lives in Los Angeles, banished from the District of Columbia in its entirety.
The judge's order is a spectacular case of judicial overreach. Grogan protested it on First Amendment grounds, and justly so. It is remarkable that he would be banned from grinding his particular ax in the 68 square miles of the nation's capital, where citizens have a right to petition for a redress of grievances. But really, this isn't a only a First Amendment case.
Equally fundamental to his privileges as a citizen is the right to move about the United States freely, so long as in doing so he doesn't imperil others. As Justice John Paul Stevens wrote in Saenz v. Roe (1999), the right to travel is "firmly embedded in our jurisprudence."
If Grogan's actions at the inauguration posed a threat to public safety, as the judge reasonably concluded, she could have prohibited him from climbing trees over the heads of others. But exiling loudmouths, exhibitionists and ideologues from the District of Columbia is neither constitutional nor practicable. After all, Congress is located in the city, and it's here to stay.

Considering the price, the diamonds were beautiful, but SMALL.
It was difficult to unlatch the necklace, but I loved the diamonds and the sparkle. I wish it had been 17 or 17 and a half inches long. It seemed to me it would have been perfect if it had been an inch or two longer.
Matches all her other jewelery perfectly. She is the envy of her friends.
My wife loved this necklace. It is very contemporary and not overdone. She is able to wear it daily to work.
it is a very refined and versatile piece of jewelry which may be worn to all occasions without the wearer feeling ostentatious or underdressed. It is elegant and I'm very pleased.

How to price LTE services is also currently much in focus due to the varying approaches of operators towards adding a premium to the higher-speed services.
LAS VEGAS--Microsoft will place more of a marketing focus on the signature features of the devices its partners produce as well as on the connections between the mobile platform and Windows 8 and Microsoft's Xbox gaming console, according to a Windows Phone executive.
AT&T Mobility is bringing HSPA+ and LTE data support to its GoPhone prepaid customers who use Apple's iPhone or any other HSPA+ or LTE-enabled device, the carrier confirmed.
AT&T Mobility has imposed a new monthly 61-cent "Mobility Administrative Fee" for all of its postpaid customers as of May 1, a move that will bring in hundreds of millions of dollars in additional revenue for the carrier.
LTE networks will continue to mushroom around the globe through 2018, according to a new report from ABI Research, with the FDD-based variant of the technology continuing to dominate.
Dish Network struck a strategic deal with regional operator nTelos Wireless to co-develop a fixed-mobile broadband service within nTelos' coverage territory.
If you are an American and own a cell phone, your location, demographics and activities are probably already for sale to anyone with the cash to buy that data.
LAS VEGAS--A top Ting executive said that around 40-50 percent of the MVNO's new customers are coming through its newly launched bring-your-own-device program.
Vivendi has appointed its head of telecommunications, Jean-Yves Charlier, as the CEO of SFR in a move that strengthens the leadership of the French operator ahead of a possible initial public offering.
Clearwire said it is reducing the amount of Huawei equipment it is using in its TD-LTE network buildout, likely a response to ongoing concerns that Huawei's network gear poses a threat to U.

A while back, I wrote a post for the Houston Real Estate Observer, on neighbors.
I included a photo I'd taken during the most recent Texas Gubernatorial Election.
(I so had to look up gubernatorial. Real Allison just says governor).
The picture, below, is a documentation of my neighbors' pissing contest.
You know, their, my dick is bigger than yours war.
It began slowly.
And was all very subtle.
One guy stuck a Rick Perry sign in his front yard and, soon after, his next door neighbor followed with a sign of his own.
Ricky Perry's contender, Bill White.
The balls.
So, the Perry guy was all, "I'll match your White with another Perry and raise you a with Fire Pelosi."
So, then the other guy was all, "OH YEAH?" Well, I'm gonna put up a sign of someone running for some position locally that I really have no idea about but you'd hate everything she stands for so fuck you very much."
Oh, the dreams I had.
Of me, late at night, dressed head to toe in black. I'd leave my house just after it fell asleep, jogging the few blocks it takes to ground zero. I would quickly switch the signs, placing each of them in the opposing yard. Then, if I had time, I would throw a few rolls of toilet paper in their trees and run back to my car screaming,"GO! GO! GO!," until I realized it was just me and so I'd drive home cautiously, chug a glass of wine, and apply my eye-wrinkle cream in bed.
Of course, I totally wussed out.
All those thoughts of being arrested, or shot by the Republican, or being made to enter into same sex marriage by the Democrat, were making me panicky.
Plus, I was never really good at those things.
I always had to pee.
But, ladies and gentlemen, here is my second chance!
Let the games begin!
If anyone needs me, I'll be out buying toilet paper, wine, and eye wrinkle cream.

Returning to Play After a Head Injury During a Sporting Event
Topic Overview
Anyone who has a head injury during a sporting event needs to immediately stop all activity and not return to play that day. Being active again before the brain returns to normal functioning increases the person's risk of having a more serious brain injury.
Every person involved in a sporting event (every coach, player, teacher, parent, and trainer) needs to be trained to know the symptoms of a concussion. And all need to know the importance of getting medical help when a player has a head injury.
The decision about when a player can safely return to play must be made by a doctor. The doctor decides on a case-by-case basis. Things that help the doctor decide when the player can return to play include:
- The symptoms the player has.
- The player's medical history.
- The player's concussion history.
- The player's medicine use.
- The type of sport and the position played.
- The player's ability to stand and keep his or her balance.
- The player's ability to pay attention and to answer questions that test learning and memory.
- How quickly the player can solve problems.
Doctors and other concussion specialists agree that a player must not return to play until symptoms are completely gone, both at rest and during exercise or exertion. Using medicine to improve concussion symptoms is not the same thing as being symptom-free. Medicines must be stopped before an athlete can be considered symptom-free. Children and teens have longer recovery times. So they may have to wait longer before they can return to play.
The first treatment for a concussion is rest, both physical and mental. The return to play needs to occur in a gradual, step-by-step way:Reference 1
- No activity. This means complete physical and mental rest.
- Light aerobic activity. This can include walking, swimming, or other exercise at less than 70% maximum heart rate. No resistance training is included in this step.
- Sport-specific exercise. This includes skating drills or running drills (depending on the sport) but no head impact.
- Non-contact training drills. This includes more complex training drills such as passing. The athlete may also begin light resistance training.
- Full contact practice. A medical professional must agree that the athlete is ready. The athlete can participate in normal training.
- Return to play. This is the final step and allows the athlete to join in normal game play.
The athlete must be symptom-free for 24 hours at the current level of activity before moving on to the next step. If one or more symptoms return, the player needs to go back to the previous level of activity with no symptoms for at least 24 hours before trying to do more. A doctor must always make the final decision about whether a player is ready to return to full-contact play.
These general rules apply to return to play after a first concussion. After more than one concussion, the player will most likely need a longer recovery time. Because the risk for a second concussion is greatest within 10 days of the first concussion, it's very important to make sure the player is completely recovered before he or she returns to play. A second injury, even if it is not a head injury, could cause permanent brain damage or death.

With Mondays inauguration of President Barack Obama, Washington D.C. will be jammed with political figures from across the nation.
Chester County Democratic Party Chairwoman Michelle Vaughn arrived in D.C. on Saturday, excited for the festivities.
It is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and I know that since I didnt have the opportunity to go last time, I knew this would be my last chance to see our president sworn in, Vaughn said. I wanted to share in that excitement and enthusiasm with all the other supporters.
For those who put much into the Obama campaign, the inauguration is a time to relish his election triumph.
It certainly is a celebration, Vaughn said. We put in a lot of long hours, spoke to thousands of voters and knocked on thousands of doors, and now its our time to celebrate in that victory, and Im just thrilled to be here.
Vaughn will attend the inauguration ceremony with her sister and niece, and preparing for many hours in the cold weather was a pre-trip priority.
I was still shopping last night buying provisions for the cold weather, Vaughn said. We have jackets, hoods, hats, sweaters, socks, everything.
Vaughn isnt expected to be the only local in attendance, as State Democratic Party Committeeperson Barbara Cooper and Caln Township Commissioner Josh Young were expected to attend.
Both State Senator Andy Dinniman (D-19th) and West Chester Mayor Carolyn Comitta attended inaugurations of Bill Clinton, and their recollections are near carbon-copies.
As a Clinton delegate, Dinniman went in January of 1993 and 97.
They are meaningful to be a part of and enjoyable to be there for a moment in history, Dinniman said. But if you go to a couple of them, you think twice about going again. First, its very cold, and you have to get there very early, and youre sitting outside for a long time. Second, the balls arent really balls. They are places where a lot of people are crowded together.
Dinniman was offered tickets this time around, but respectfully declined.
I thought Id let someone else have that opportunity, Dinniman said. Plus, going one or two times, its amazing and worth what you put into it. After that, youve had the experience.
Comitta attended Clintons first inauguration, and went to the same ball at D.C.s Union Station as Dinniman.
It was great to be there, Comitta said. Looking back, what stands out is that it was absolutely mobbed. Everyone is in ball gowns and tuxes, and its just packed full of people. Just finding a restroom was very difficult.
If Comitta had been offered tickets for Monday, she wouldve taken Dinnimans chosen route.
If someone had handed me tickets this time, I wouldve said, Thank you, anyway, and wouldve shared them with someone who hadnt gone before, Comitta said.
Dinniman said he will kick back and enjoy the festivities from the comfort of his living room.
People should realize at home that theyre getting a better view than if youre there, Dinniman said. And the ball is more like a crowd hanging around on top of you, with some food if you can get to it. Im going to sit and watch it on TV, where its warm and where I can get to the food without working through a crowd, if I so desire.

HARTFORD >> Here comes the public.
As the six legislative leaders continue to negotiate new gun control measures, gun rights advocates will come to the Legislative Office Building on Monday to lobby their representatives in a daylong session organized by the National Rifle Association.
On Wednesday, advocates for reformed gun laws and a beefed up assault weapons ban with limits on gun magazines, will be at the LOB as part of a previously scheduled organizational meeting that will now include limited lobbying from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Both sides say they were caught off guard by the public hearing set for Thursday by the Public Safety Committee on a number of gun control bills, much of which is already being considered by the legislative leaders as they look for an agreement on the specifics of a bill that will also touch on better mental health access and school safety.
The debate on guns is in response to the murder of 20 children and six educators by Adam Lanza, a Newtown man who first killed his mother in the home they shared before he drove to the Sandy Hook Elementary School on Dec. 14 and killed the 26 others with an AR-15 semiautomatic.
The legislative leaders are state Senate President Pro Tem Donald Williams, D-Brooklyn; state Senate Majority Leader Martin Looney, D-New Haven; state Senate Minority Leader John McKinney, R-Fairfield; state House Minority Leader Lawrence Cafero, R- Norwalk; House Speaker Brendan Sharkey, D-Hamden; House Majority Leader Joe Arsimowicz, D-Berlin.
They have met twice and plan to meet again on Monday. A session last Friday was cancelled because of a snowstorm. They have estimated that a comprehensive bill could be ready soon with some type of limited hearing and a vote possible in another week, although they been flexible given the complexity of the issues and legislative language.
Looney on Sunday said they will continue meeting until they reach agreement or a deadlock, but sides have reported progress so far.
The main area of contention is the Democratic-backed plan to extend the assault weapons ban and to limit magazines, an issue Republicans on a bipartisan task force subcommittee could not support but which is now on the table for discussion.
A Quinnipiac Poll issued last week showed overwhelmingly support in the state for an expanded assault weapons ban and limited bullets in magazines as well as other permitting and background checks. Continued...
A number of Democratic leaders and those already proposing bills are on the record on how they stand on the gun issue, but others are reluctant to do so until the leaders bring out a bill or they hear more in hearings.
Journal Register Company's Connecticut newspapers sent out a survey to all House and Senate legislators last week asking for a response to five questions. The legislators were asked whether or not they support, or are undecided on, Gov. Dannel P. Malloy's gun package as a whole, making background checks universal and comprehensive, limiting magazines to 10 bullets, promoting safer gun storage and improving enforcement of existing laws.
Of the 187 legislators, six senators and six representatives responded with answers. A spokesman for several state Senate Democrats said the caucus' policy is to not respond to any newspaper surveys because they are in the process of compiling specifics of a gun bill. Of the five senators who replied, all but one, Sen. Toni Harp of New Haven, were Republicans.
Also responding to the survey were senators Michael McClachlan (R-Danbury), Kevin Witkos (R-Canton), Kevin Kelly (R-Stratford), Toni Boucher (R-Wilton), Clark Chapin (R-New Milford) and Len Fasano (R-North Haven). Representatives Brenda Kupchick (R-Fairfield), Kim Fawcett (D-Fairfield), Christie Carpino (R-Middletown), Linda Gentile (D-Ansonia), Livvy Floren (R-Greenwich) and Gail Lavielle (R-Norwalk) replied to the survey.
All of those who responded support universal background checks, promoting safer gun storage and improving enforcement of existing gun laws. There was a mixed response to the other proposals. The full results can be seen at bit.ly/RCGunSurvey.
Scott Wilson, who runs the Connecticut Citizens Defense League, said they are advising their supporters to split their time between lobbying on Monday and the Thursday hearing, assuming people have to juggle work schedules to make their voices heard in Hartford.
"Both days are equally important," Wilson said with shuttle buses being run from Cabela's sporting goods store in East Hartford to the LOB Monday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The NRA, in association with the National Shooting Sports Foundation, the Coalition of Connecticut Sportsmen and the CCDL, are urging their supporters to show up in mass on Monday.
It is not a rally such as the one that was held in January when 1,000 opponents of stricter gun laws showed up at the Capitol, or the one the following month when 5,000 anti-gun activists listened to speakers and demanded lawmakers take a vote on more controls. This week is devoted to meeting one-on-one with lawmakers.
"Please come stand shoulder to shoulder with the NRA to fight for our Second Amendment rights!" is the message from the CCDL on its website. "Your presence is needed to communicate with your state legislators that you oppose passage of sweeping anti-gun legislation that is riddled with failed policies and infringes on the rights of law-abiding citizens." Continued...
Connecticut Against Gun Violence will also meet in Westport on Wednesday evening and Friday morning to continue planning towards its aim of getting comprehensive gun violence prevention passed in Connecticut.
The organization plans to kick off an ad campaign this week that will be online, in print and on the radio.
The gun manufacturers, through their lobbying group, the National Shooting Sports Foundation, have already posted interviews with workers concerned about their jobs and they are now running television ads on cable stations.
"We believe that a historic vote on a comprehensive package of gun violence prevention legislation will happen very soon. The people of Connecticut and the country are counting on our lawmakers to stop the proliferation of weapons designed for military and police use, and the magazines that feed them. We are maximizing our effort and we will leave nothing on the table," said Ron Pinciaro, executive director of Connecticut Against Gun Violence.
A new youth activism organization, Second Amendment Sanity, will also meet Monday from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at Edmond Town Hall, 45 Main St. in Newtown, where they will exchange ideas. Second Amendment Sanity (SAS) is dedicated to reducing gun violence both locally and nationally through activism and education.
The legislation that will get a public hearing on Thursday covers such things as prohibiting a person who was hospitalized with a psychiatric disorder from getting a gun for 24 months; fingerprinting and background checks for transfer of any long gun and raising the age to buy a rifle to 21 from 18.
The most comprehensive one reflects the Democratic agenda that expands the assault weapons ban; requires registration of firearms; establishes a gun offender list and prohibits the bulk sale of firearms.

I guess I grew up in a weird place because I had never heard of "funeral potatoes" until moving to Utah. Everyone, and I do mean EVERYONE has their own recipe for this potluck favorite. I hear that they are well known everywhere, but that people call them all sorts of different things. I was a little hesitant at first, but upon trying them I can see why everyone loves them. I looooove the cheese-y potatoes with the crunchy topping! It's delicious. I just had one hold up… What's with all of the cream of something soup? I wanted real ingredients, and although I did do the normal cornflake topping, I think I'll do Panko next time. I loooved the flavor in these REAL Funeral potatoes.
Funeral Potatoes
Recipe By Me
3 tb Unsalted Butter
1 Medium yellow onion, chopped
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 Tb Knorr Homestyle Chicken Stock
1 3/4 Cup Hot Water
1 Cup milk
1 Ts Worcestershire Sauce
1 Dash Hot Sauce
1 1/2 ts salt
1/2 ts pepper
2 cups shredded, Tillamook Extra sharp cheddar cheese
26-ounce bag frozen shredded hash browns
1/2 cup light sour cream
2 Tb Unsalted Butter, Melted
2 1/2 Cups, slightly crushed CornFlakes
In a large sauce pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until the onion is softened and translucent, about 5-6 minutes.
Quickly whisk in the flour and cook, stirring constantly, for about a minute in order to cook out the flour taste.
Combine the chicken stock and hot water and stir until the stock has melted out evenly. Add it to the milk in a liquid measure and slowly whisk into the butter and onion mixture.
Add the salt, pepper, Worcestershire, and hot sauce. Stir to combine. Bring the mixture to a boil and then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring frequently, until the mixture is slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.
Take the pot off the heat and add the sour cream. Then stir in the cheese until smooth. Mix in the frozen hash browns, lifting and folding the mixture until well combined.
In a medium bowl, toss the lightly crushed cornflakes with the butter until evenly combined. Scoop out the potato mixture into a 9X13-inch baking dish and top with the buttered cornflakes.
Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes, until hot and bubbly around the edges.Remove from the oven and let sit for about 10 min and then serve!

Serves 4
Made with quick-cooking shrimp and simply topped with cabbage and cilantro, these tacos come together in minutes. Round out the meal with rice and black beans or a chopped salad.
Heat the oven to 350°F. Wrap the tortillas in foil and bake until heated through, about 10 minutes. Turn off the oven; leave the tortillas in the oven until ready to serve.
Meanwhile, finely grate 3/4 tsp. zest from half of the lime. Cut the lime in half and squeeze the zested half to yield 1 Tbs. juice. Cut the other half into 4 wedges.
In a small bowl, stir the sour cream, 1/2 tsp. of the lime zest, 1/4 tsp. of the coriander, and a large pinch of salt; set aside.
Heat the oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring often, until translucent, 2 to 3 minutes. Raise the heat to medium high and add the shrimp, the remaining 3/4 tsp. coriander, the cumin, pepper flakes, and 1/4 tsp. salt and cook, stirring constantly, until the shrimp are cooked through, about 2 minutes. Add the lime juice and remaining zest and stir to coat. Remove from the heat.
Put some of the cabbage, cilantro, and sour cream on each tortilla and top with the shrimp. Fold in half and serve immediately with the lime wedges on the side.

If you're really keen to do a season but are either not sure exactly what you want to do or are unsure if you have the necessary skills and qualifications, then there are a number of different courses and training seminars available to help you on your way. Read on for more suggestions...
Job Courses for Courchevel
Ski Job Qualifications
also see Job Offers in Courchevel: Find a JobCookery
If you like the idea of becoming a chalet host but are unsure if you have the culinary capabilities, why not enrol yourself on one of the many cookery courses that are available. A number of them are designed specifically with chalet hosting in mind and equip you with all the skills and knowledge necessary for you to become an Alpine Domestic Goddess!
These courses are generally hosted by current experienced chalet staff so you can be sure that all the advice and time saving tips they share, actually work! Apart from learning essential cooking skills and preparation techniques you will also learn about budgeting, portion sizing, and how to cope with the sort of challenges a season may throw at you. You will also get plenty practice cooking for large numbers prior to your first guests and come away with a repertoire of recipes that you are confident cooking.
Courses vary in price, but as a guideline you should expect to pay around £400 for a week's residential training. Many tour operators run their own cookery courses over the summer and will guarantee all delegates a job on successful completion. Some may even refund some of the course fees at the end of season. Natives – The Season Workers Website also runs an excellent residential course in Somerset and more cookery schools can be found listed here
Natives Winter Workshops
The guys at Natives have put together a series of workshops that are specifically designed to lead you through the whole process of "doing a season". From deciding what to do, who to apply to, and writing a killer application form or CV, to sound advice on interview techniques, finding accommodation and general mountain safety. Seminars are held at various times throughout the summer and mini-workshops will be run at the Ski Shows in the autumn. For full details see here
Ski Instructor
If you have set your heart on being a ski instructor for the season then you are going to need a qualification first, so plan ahead! There are a number of organisations that offer ski and snowboard instructor courses, either for the budding teacher or for those who simply want to see a dramatic improvement in their own ski ability. A basic qualification will generally take 5 days but if you are planning on teaching professionally then ensure that your chosen course provides an internationally recognised qualification as what works in one country, may not in another.
The BASI Ski and Snowboard Teacher qualification is now internationally recognised and Brits have been using this qualification in France without any problem since 2008. Although the basic course which allows you to instruct in the rest of the world will only take three weeks the Teacher qualification take at least three years to attain and can be very expensive. Once you have it you'll be free to jump queues and take four hour lunches.
Ski Technician
With the majority of ski shops in the Alps looking for qualified and experienced ski technicians to maintain their equipment, you might want to consider doing a Ski Tech course prior to heading out. You can find details of one such course here. It will give you a comprehensive grounding in all aspects of ski and snowboard repair and maintenance as well as boot fitting. However, whilst the course is fully certified and recognised within the industry the certificate you receive at the end is confirmation of attendance rather than of competence, so to maximise your chances of employment overseas, you should try and get yourself some on-the-job experience before you go.

Throughput-Fairness Trade-Off in Probabilistic Medium Access Control for Wireless Ad Hoc Networks
In this work we investigate the interaction between fairness and overall efficiency of wireless networks utilizing minimum-effort signaling and rough administration structure. In such networks the QoS control, like e.g. total throughput maximization, assuring fairness of link-rates etc., has to be accomplished by appropriate medium access design. Using the tools of majorization theory we characterize the interdependence between max-min fair, efficiency-optimal and worst-case probabilistic medium access schemes, with efficiency described by a general functional of link-QoS parameters, e.g. total network throughput, sum of logarithmic rates etc. In particular, we characterize the interesting efficiency functionals, which are optimized under max-min fair medium access.

What is Annexation? Annexation is the methodical extension of a city's boundaries into adjacent unincorporated areas, and the corresponding extension of that city's services to the areas encompassed by the new boundaries. In North Carolina, annexation is governed by state statutes that allow cities and towns to annex adjacent areas, once those areas contain certain urban development characteristics (population density, subdivision of land into smaller lots, development intensity). Annexation has enabled Charlotte's land area to more than double since 1980, reaching about 303 square miles as of January 1, 2012. The City of Charlotte has had a policy of systematically undertaking annexation every two years, culminating with an effective annexation date of June 30th of the odd-numbered years. The City last completed an annexation that became effective on June 30, 2011. An area can qualify for annexation if it meets the prerequisites and one or more of the standards contained in the State annexation statutes. 2011 ANNEXATION PROCESS SUMMARY The most recent (2011) annexation process began in mid-2009 with the identification of "annexation study areas", consisting of unincorporated areas in Mecklenburg County and within Charlotte's extraterritorial jurisdiction that demonstrate relatively high rates of change as documented by indicators such as issuance of building permits, approvals of subdivisions, and high rezoning petition activity. These characteristics generally indicate areas that might soon qualify for annexation and are therefore worthy of further study. It is within these areas that annexation analyses were conducted early in 2010 for the 2011 annexation process.
The following measures were taken as part of the 2011 annexation process: June 8, 2009 City Council adopted Resolution of Consideration, establishing 2011 annexation study areas. January, 2010 Annexation study area field work was undertaken in order to preliminarily determine areas that might qualify for annexation. February – June 2010 Annexation qualifying areas were determined, and "service plans" developed for the qualifying areas that include identification of budget impacts (costs of service extensions and potential revenue implications) for each qualifying area. The service plans were integrated into Annexation Reports that described each qualifying area and the manner in which it qualified under the state annexation statutes. A total of three areas (encompassing about 3.8 square miles) were identified that qualified for 2011 annexation June 14, 2010 A Preliminary Annexation Report was presented to City Council, which then adopted the Annexation Reports and "Resolutions of Intent", which scheduled the public informational meeting and public hearing on annexation qualifying areas. August 5, 2010 A public informational meeting was held for property owners affected by annexations. August 23, 2010 City Council conducted annexation public hearings for the 2011 annexation qualifying areas. November 8, 2010 City Council adopted annexation ordinances for the 2011 annexation qualifying areas, representing final City Council action on the 2011 annexations. March, 2011 Notification/information packets were mailed to property owners affected by the approved annexations. June 30, 2011 Effective annexation date – City services extended to 2011 annexation areas. Updated January 17, 2012
