Categories Comments Great for these types of students The one who wants to achieve and likes to have a close knit campus feel.
Tips for prospective students It is important to show up and be prepared for class. But if you must miss a class a great rule of thumb to remember is that you can miss as many classes a semester as the class meets in a week. So if your class meets four times a week for the semester, you can miss up to four classes a semester. There is a public library on campus that you can rent study rooms in. You are allowed to bring food and drink into them. The learning center also has study rooms for student use. Don't settle for a advisor that you feel does not suit your needs, you can shop around to find a comfortable fit. Also do not be afraid to ask questions, you are not bothering the staff.

Categories Comments Campus Safety You will always feel safe on campus. There are always security guards walking around and driving around campus keeping students safe. Also, South Mountain has emergency posts in the parking lot if anything happens.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus The campus is unusal. If you notice South Mountain Community College is like a circle. Another unusual thing on campus is that there is a like space that is desert like in back and on one side of the college. Which is part of the college.
What to do for fun There are numerous things to do for fun on campus. One is to catch a baseball game in the summer and watch us hit a home run. Or watch and witness the cultural plays and performances of students and faculty members in the auditorium.
Food and Dining The food is scrumptious from breakfast to lunch. The quarter pound hamburger is mouth watering especially with cheese. It is huge and worth the price. Dining on campus is wonderful. You can grab a bite from the cafeteria or get a quick snack and drink from the vending machines. If you are eating on campus there are endless places to seat and enjoy you meal. For instance, under the shade and mist in the square or under a huge green tree that seems to provide endless shade.
Dorm Life South Mountain Community College does not offer housing, It is a college where you have to commute.
Academic Rigor The academic strictness at South Mountain Community College is challenging. A challenge is a great way to determine your strengths and weaknesses. Their expectations are high because they know each student is capable of doing much more than what they expect you to do. With the academic rigor being high it will help individuals to keep a high standard of themselves. By the way there is always someone there to help you. If you have any questions, concerns, or just someone to talk to.
Tips for prospective students Tips for prospective students is to be prepared mentally, emotionally, and physically. For the reason that, the first day of college does not measure up to the first day of high school. That is where you have to be mentally prepared because you are on your own for the first time in your life. This is where you become an adult and take full responsibility of your actions. This is the point where you make own decisions and your family is your supporters now (not decision makers). Emotionally prepared ties up with being on your own. You become independent and you become your motivator. Being prepared emotionally will help you conquer college. For the reason that, you understand what you are up against. You are up against a higher level of education where it will test your knowledge and abilities. Last but not least is being physically prepared. If you are physically prepared it will help learn new things and have it preserve in your mind.
In three sentences South Mountain Community College is a ten, on a scale of one being the worst and ten being the best college. It has everything a person ever wanted in a college. It is a small and well organized college. The class sizes are small and the new library is huge.

Dr. Katz was our first presenter of the day and had the audience enthralled by her presentation. She discussed the four principles of structural engineering that line up with principles of a good foundation for educating children. She went on to outline the four questions that any curriculum should answer. An important take away from this lecture was that children always learn, not necessarily what you want them to learn.
Dr. Taffel's multimedia presentation is engaging and laugh out loud funny at times. He presents his view that to protect 'childhood' we must understand how today's kids are different, far more anxious than in earlier eras. Educators and parents can then strengthen adult authority and compassion, rather than subtly blame each other. Through lecture and video clips Dr. Taffel describes realistic, exciting ways school can empower parents at home, teachers in the classroom, and for the good of our children, lessen the divide between school and home.
With anecdotes from her own vast professional experience as a language Pathologist, Dr. Soifer discussed how Oral language is the foundation of literacy and a crucial skill for learning and social development. Oral language develops much faster than many people realize. Good language skills have far reaching influences on children's development. The specifics of language development expectations by age will be presented, along with the parallels of oral language to literacy development. Techniques to facilitate thinking and problem solving with language will be offered, as well as some "red flags and warning signs" for language learning challenges.
During the last presentation of the day, Dr. Deak gave an interesting talk on the latest findings on brain development in the first five years of life which have been dubbed the formative years for a very long time. Brain research is supporting and adding nuance to this nomenclature. These first five years are a time of huge plasticity and what is done strengthens and grows those areas and has a lifelong impact. Conversely, areas not used well often shrink or 'prune' and can cause issues for a lifetime.

The ninth annual Rachel Carson Awards were recently handed out to three distinguished leaders in conservation in the Plaza Hotel in Midtown. The award, named for the author of "Silent Spring" and the founder of the modern day conservation movement, is an icon for Audubon.
"The Rachel Carson Award is probably the most coveted award for American women, conservationists and environmentalists," said Allison Rockefeller, the chair of the Rachel Carson Awards council.
One of the honorees was city Transportation Commissioner Janette Sadik-Khan.
"I think women are extraordinarily important. I think that raising families, cooking food, everything from seeing birds in the trees to bread on your plate is really impactful," said Sadik-Khan. "Having a larger sense of family and having a larger sense of community and having a larger sense of what we need to do for the planet is very much a very big concern for women."
The Reverend Canon Sally Bingham of Interfaith Power & Light, another honoree, organized the religious community to become more environmentally friendly.
"How could you love God and love creation and not be a leader in the environmental movement?" asked Bingham.
The third award recipient was Hunter Lovins, the president of Natural Capitalism Solutions, who explained how capitalism and conservation can co-exist.
"When those wild-eyed environmentalists at Goldman Sachs tell you that the companies that are the leaders in the environment, social and good governments policy have 25 percent higher stock value than their less sustainable competitors, there's a business case," said Lovins.
Philanthropy is a bit of a tradition in our family, so it won't surprise you that Allison Rockefeller's middle name is "Whipple." She's my sister, and I'm very proud of her.

Cognomen Erratum - Understanding Records and Avoiding Mistakes.
Loosely speaking, my inexperienced Latin translates (I hope) as 'A mistake of name'. It is not often that knocking down a stubborn genealogical brick wall results in anything other than elation. Depending on the age of the brick wall or the length of time it has been blocking the tantalizing path to the next generation, elation can range from a broad smile to shrieks of merriment. But beware - there are pitfalls to premature excitement. It is wise not to jump to conclusions hastily and VERY important to understand the records that you find.
Whilst tracing my family tree, I have demolished quite a few brick walls. In the midst of the thrill of razing a previously steadfast brick barrier in Lincolnshire, England and whilst adding several generations of family to my tree, I learned that no matter how many years experience one has researching family history, there is always something to learn.
On my maternal side of the family tree I had traced my Morley family line back to John Morley (1756-1824) and his wife Esther Hardy. Tracing Esther Hardy's ancestors presented no obstacle. I quickly found her father Richard Hardy, born on March 6, 1717 in Lincolnshire, England and her grandfather William Hardy, my 7th great grandfather, who was born in about 1680 also in Lincolnshire. It was while searching for the family of Esther Hardy's mother Alice Collingwood that I came up against a solid genealogical Brick Wall blocking my path to the past.
Often, I find that it is advisable to leave a Brick Wall alone for a period of time, and when I return to my research, I hope that new records might have been released or that I might find a clue that I missed when searching previously. For my Collingwood ancestors, I had a marriage record for Alice Collingwood to Richard Hardy on March 6, 1743 in Long Bennington, Lincolnshire, located in the Lincolnshire, England Extracted Parish Records on Ancestry.com as well as in the England Marriages 1538-1973 on the FamilySearch website. A family member had confirmed this record as well, whilst in England.
Late one night, I finally burst through my brick wall and found the birth of Alice Collingwood as well as her siblings born to parents Gulielmi and Maria Collingwood in Claxby (near Alford), Lincolnshire. The birth records for these children showed their names to be Alicia, Maria, Elizabetha and Lucia. It appeared that Alice Collingwood's real name was Alicia and that this was the reason for the trouble I had encountered when searching for her birth. Looking at the names of my ancestors, I felt a rush of elation as I suspected I may have found the origin of my olive skin which tans very easily. In Summer when very brown I have been asked by many people if I have Italian ancestry. Seeing such names of my ancestors as Alicia, Lucia and Gulielmi, excited me into believing that I had made an exciting discovery. Surely I had found Italian or Spanish or some other unanticipated and exotic ancestry?
Marriage record for Gulielmi Collingwood and Maria Richardson |
I became even more animated as I read the names of children from two earlier marriages of Gulielmi Collingwood. By wife Isabella he had a son Johannes and by his first wife Anna, Gulielmi had two daughters named Maria and Sara. Collingwood was obviously not an Italian surname, however, I became convinced that somewhere in the ancestry of this family was an intriguing lineage.
When I found the marriage record for Gulielmi Collingwood and Maria, I was surprised to find that her surname was Richardson. Somewhere in their background though, I was convinced I would still discover the exotic ancestry that I was now expecting.
After a long night of searching Lincolnshire records and quite energised by my find, I finally fell asleep amidst thoughts of possibly one of my most exciting family history finds. In the middle of the night, awakened by a barking dog, however, a revelation struck me heavily, like a brick from my genealogical wall. Instantly and almost certainly, my optimism about my having glamorously unexpected ancestry evaporated, as it occurred to me that the records I had found could very well have been written in Latin. This would explain the English surnames of Collingwood and Richardson coupled with Italian sounding names such as Lucia and Gulielmi.
A search first thing the next morning confirmed my devastating suspicion. The names Maria, Gulielmi/Gulielmus, Alicia, Lucia and Elizabetha were exact matches for the Latin equivalent of English names. Further research into English church practices, revealed that until 1733 most English Church baptism, marriage and burial records, including those of the Anglican Church, were written in Latin.
In my excitement I had overlooked also, a marriage record for Alice Collingwood's parents in the Lincolnshire, England, Extracted Parish Records. This record corroborated my fading hopes of discovering romantic and foreign origins. The marriage record showed the couples' names to be William Collingwood and Mary Richardson. Their children were therefore named Alice, Mary, Lucy and Elizabeth. Definitely no Italian there!
Lincolnshire register of Marriages, 1538-1837. |
So as it turns out my Collingwood family from Lincolnshire, England were English. There was not one exotic Italian or Spanish ancestor lurking in the Wolds of Lincolnshire. On the bright side I have added a 7 times great grandfather to my tree and learned something about English Church records. Of course, the puzzle of my olive skin still remains to be solved. Perhaps in my ancient Scottish ancestry there is a Roman somewhere. And I still haven't ruled out a Norman connection. I will keep searching.......

Ash trees in the foreground and dead ones behind.
THE SOLENT will not protect the Isle of Wight from the transmission of a deadly disease that threatens millions of ash trees in the UK.
Spores of the fungus, which threatens to devastate woods and forests, are airborne so separation from the mainland would not prevent transmission, say experts.
The Isle of Wight Council has warned people not to bring potentially infected saplings, timber or firewood from the mainland, to ensure the Isle of Wight remains free of chalara fraxinea, known as Ash dieback.
It has circulated tree contractors with a factsheet.
Isle of Wight Council tree officer, Jerry Willis, said: "Ash make up about half the trees in our woodland and their loss would be a disaster. As an indigenous tree, there are a lot of species which depend on it.
"I have had reports and have so far investigated one of them, which proved not to be a case of infection,"
"I am more than happy for people to contact me if they are concerned about a tree but it will be easier for symptoms to be identified in the spring if new growth starts to die back.
"Infected trees have to be burned, or buried, on site."
The first sign of infection is when leaves start to die at the tree crown.
It then spreads to branches and the trunk, where dark lesions appear before the tree dies.
The government has been accused of ignoring warnings on the issue.
More than 100,000 trees have been felled already, just eight months after the infection was first identified at a Buckinghamshire nursery.
But despite mass felling and an European import ban, experts have predicted it could be as devastating to the ash as Dutch Elm disease was to the English elm.
The Forestry Commission has issued advice on its website here and pictures of the symptoms here.
A video had been produced by the Food and Environment Research Agency (FERA) to explain the symptoms which can be seen below:

TULSA, Okla. — A proposed $1.8 billion oil pipeline from North Dakota to Oklahoma has been called off because the company behind the deal couldn't rally enough commitments to transport their oil to Cushing.
Tulsa-based Oneok Partners LP announced Tuesday that the Bakken Crude Express Pipeline won't be built.
Oneok says the outlook for crude oil supply is robust but it could not get enough producers to promise long-term use of the 1,300-mile pipeline.
The company says it still has up to $4.8 billion of announced natural gas and natural gas liquids projects under way and many of them are in the Bakken Shale.
Oneok says the pipeline would have moved 200,000 barrels of oil from the Williston Basin in the Bakken Shale in Montana and North Dakota.

Dennis Prager
What Type of American ??
You've probably received some e-mails where the subject
line reads "must see video". This isn't one of those videos.
This one is in a class by itself. This video is "must see again
and again video". Repetitive viewing is necessary so that
we'll stop forgetting what the rest of the world hasn't;
America is an exceptional nation.
Dennis Prager is not just a smart man, he is a wise man.
You can hear his radio show at dennisprager.com. His
controlled passion only serves to support the believability
of his concern for America's future. A future even the most
apathetic among us are beginning to doubt.
And yes, in case you're wondering, that's Sarah Palin sitting
next to him. So you Palin haters, be you Republican, Democrat,
Independent, or an average media-brainwashed slug, for once
do exactly what Palin is doing and LISTEN !!!
If your hatred of Palin totally short-circuits your brain to the
point of apoplexy, please just listen to the audio. What
Prager is saying should not be missed. Just this once,
try not to make political assumptions based on your virulent,
media-manipulated emotions.
This clip encapsulates the root cause of most of
America's current challenges. America has survived wars,
civil wars, and natural disasters, but it cannot survive for
much longer with an irresponsible, self-centered, entertainment-
driven electorate, and the pathetic politicians they blindly
encourage and support.
The Leftist Media Spin Machine may tell you, there is no such
thing as TRUTH, but if you played the above video, you just
heard a ton of it. Problem is, how would any nation chin-deep
in "reality shows", and secular relativism even recognize the
truth ?
The reality of the situation is that there are now only two
types of Americans. No, it's not Republicans and Democrats.
It's not even rich and poor. It has nothing to do with what
we are, but rather, who we are.
In America today the political battles and campaigns are
between the "mature" and the "immature".
Sadly, the race at this point is too close to call !!!

[Note: Obama campaign hypocrisy continued on FOX News Sunday, August 17. Obama National Campaign co-chair Senator Claire McCaskill said regarding Senator McCain's strong response to the Russian invasion of Georgia that he shouldn't be intervening because "we only have one Commander-in-Chief and one Secretary of State at a time." The hypocrisy of this statement is obvious in that Senator Obama has constantly ignored the "one Commander-in-Chief" principle in his statements about Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, Pakistan, and just about every other foreign policy issue.]
At the same time as Political and Economic Planning (PEP) and the National Planning Association (NPA) were in their early years in the 1930s, Charles Hitch became a Rhodes Scholar (1932-1933) in England and then returned to the U.S. Involved in systems management, Hitch in the early 1960s as comptroller at the U.S. Department of Defense developed the Planning-Programming-Budgeting System (PPBS).
At the same time that Hitch was in England, Peter Drucker moved from Frankfurt (where he received a doctorate in international law) to England and began working for an insurance company. Drucker then moved to the U.S. and later became a professor of management at New York University in 1950. The next year (1951), Armand Feigenbaum introduced the term Total Quality Management (TQM) in his book QUALITY CONTROL. W. Edward Deming would become perhaps the chief promoter of TQM, and Drucker would become known as the "Father of Modern Management," describing how humans are to be managed across all sectors of society. continued

Suit Sizing
Yesterday I went to my local tailor in order to explore the possibilities of a made-to-measure suit. Living in NY, this option is usually well off the table – at least in terms of price. But I was visiting the lovely state of Michigan, and I thought a possible decline of the Big 3 and manufacturing in general may lead to a few price points within my range. Alas, no – MTM suits started at $1100, all for the Jack Victor line. While I certainly trust the quality, it's a little too close to the conservative side for my taste (I also learned that he stocks nothing smaller than a 42…!?!?!..Says a lot about the midwest population, unfortunately).
However, my trip wasn't totally unsuccessful. My tailor graciously convinced me that I don't necessarily need a MTM suit. Within moments of walking in, he immediately (accurately) sized me up as a 38 chest and 31 waist. Buonissimo, signore. Then, with the flick of a wrist he instantly determined that I was just shy of a 38, but nothing that a simple adjustment to an off-the-rack 38 couldn't take care of. Thirty seconds later, I was looking at $700-$800 suits with about $50-$100 in alterations, rather than suits at $1100 or more.
Moral of the story: unless off-the-rack suits are impossible to find in your size, don't completely rule them out, as long as you have a relatively qualified tailor. Many people swear by bespoke or MTM suits, but unless we happen to be traveling to Asia on business, it may not be worth paying the extra $$$ for a barely noticeable closer fit.
As for shirts… that's a completely different story. Shirts aren't easily altered by tailors and are better off custom made from the beginning. Bespoke is an option, but MTM may be the most practical. While everyone emphasizes the fit of the suit, do we not spend most of our day in the office with our jacket off? There is no stronger statement than a well-fitted dress shirt.

Earlier today I was looking at the Whois entry for a competitor's site. The "Registrant type" is given as "UK individual" and the "Registrant's address" says:
"The registrant is a non-trading individual who has opted to have their
address omitted from the WHOIS service."
Now this is clearly incorrect because this is a real estate website.
The same competitor has another site which is very similar in appearance which does have the correct Whois information.
That they are run by the same company is apparent because the company name is used on both sites. The second site has a number of one way links pointing to the first.
Is there any significance to this? I mean is there a possible advantage in registering the first site as being non-trading then setting up links to it from the second?

Really just a collection of everything that I love, or find interesting, or beautiful, or funny. But what I mainly reblog are adventure/outdoorsy-themed posts!
I don't own any of the beautiful pictures on my blog unless I say so.
Specifically, I love:
*New Zealand*Alaska*Iceland*Yosemite*the night sky*Aurora Borealis*Photography*
*Huskies*Cats*Curling up with a good book*Comfortable clothing*
*Freakin cheesecake because cheesecake deserves its own category*
*Bubble tea*Greek yogurt*Asparagus*Sherlock*SLEEP*Trying new things!!*Learning about the
wonderful assortment of peoples and cultures this world has to offer*
I also have the subtlety of a charging bull, but that's an explanation for another time.
I enjoy writing. You can check out my travel blog - I promise to not be like other blogs and bore the fuck out of your mind.
I have been to St. Petersburg, Moscow, and Novgorod in Russia, Beijing, Shanghai, and Hangzhou in China and Delhi, Rajasthan, Ahmedabad, and Mumbai in India.
My next destinations are New Zealand, Alaska, Nova Scotia, and the United Kingdom. This girl has a lot of traveling to do :)
I will not be just "satisfied" with life. If I'm not happy, I'm not doing enough to change where I'm at.

Website provider FreeWebsite.com published a new article about veterinary website templates.
New York, NY (PRWEB) December 29, 2012
FreeWebsite.com, an industry leader in website development, released a new article discussing the company's new veterinary website templates, which make it easy for veterinary offices to start a website.
While it may seem unlikely that vets would need a website, a FreeWebsite.com representative explained, "It's a reality today that over 88% of people shop online, even for service providers. When they are selecting someone to take care of their pets, they want to know more than a name. They want to see who you are and how you operate your business. A website is a valuable and cost-effective way to get this information to potential clients."
The article goes on to discuss how Freewebsite.com provides veterinary website templates, making it easy for a veterinary service to easily create a presence on the web. A FreeWebsite.com representative related that his research showed that a common reason many vets did not have a website was the cost of building one. With the low cost veterinary website templates available on this site, veterinarians no longer need to worry about that issue.
For more information on the veterinary website templates, and to learn more about all the services provided by FreeWebsite.com, read the article at http://www.freewebsite.com/veterinary-website-template/

By: Barry Wygel
Officials in St. Lawrence County have specific instructions for people in the path of the storm. Our Barry Wygel tells us wind damage and power outages remain the biggest threat facing the county.
ST. LAWRENCE COUNTY, N.Y. -- "Take this seriously," said Joseph Gilbert, director of emergency services for St. Lawrence County
These words have been echoed by President Obama, Governor Cuomo and now by local officials. Officials in the North Country are expecting winds up to 65 miles an hour as the storm passes through.
"We expect a lot of down trees and limbs and with down trees and limbs you get down power lines," said Gilbert.
Officials say if you do experience a power outage, and you are not in need of immediate assistance, call and report it to your power company and not to 911.
Above all, officials are telling residents to stay home, leave the roads for emergency crews and others who need to get out and clean up from the storm. "We're encouraging people to shelter in place when they can. We do have designated shelters that we would open when necessary," said Timmy Currier, Massena Police Chief.
Currier says that due to the mild temperatures Monday night, he anticipates even if residents lose power, they will be fine staying in their homes, but if they do need immediate assistance, there are places they can call for help.
"What they should not do is go to their fire department. What they should do is contact their fire department or 911," said Gilbert.
People are urged to call 911 instead of their local fire department or police stations so that the county can keep track of all incidents and allocate resources to the most serious needs first.
"Everyone should take this seriously, but not panic. It's just a storm, it will come and it will go, and we'll get through it," said Gilbert.
There is the possibility for extended power outages throughout the area. Due to the nature of the storm, Gilbert says if your power goes out, it may be 12 to 14 hours before crews can even begin to restore it.

New book "The Glass Is Full" shares the secrets, steps to happiness
Sydney, Australia (PRWEB) December 11, 2012
"The pursuit of happiness" is a phrase often repeated in today's world by people of all different backgrounds, occupations and levels of success. We all search for true happiness – but how do we find it?
The secret to true happiness actually comes from inside, says Gigi G., author of the inspiring new book The Glass Is Full: The Secrets to Being Happy and Staying Happy. According to the author, true happiness comes from within, and originates in how we view our world. Gigi lays out this revolutionary (and remarkably easy to follow) philosophy in her book, which challenges the age-old saying "the glass is half full" by saying "the glass is full", no matter which way you view the glass.
"I wrote this book to share with others the key difference between a truly happy person and everyone else," says Gigi. "Anyone, from any walk of life, can change their life and be happy - all it takes is to begin the journey."
Drawn from the author's own life experiences and challenging journey to personal happiness, The Glass is Full is a pioneering and eye-opening novel for anyone who has longed for a better way of life, a more positive future and a higher level of personal fulfillment.
Readers will learn that it is they themselves who control how happy they are, and will change the way they view their careers, their families, and their lives with this unique and inspiring roadmap to true joy and fulfillment.

Reflection of Basecamp Collaboration
May 1st, 2011 byBasecamp and Campfire served their purposes well. As a team working on iPlan we predominantly stuck to using Basecamp; Campfire was only used when we were collaborating on pieces at the same time. I found features I enjoyed, and features that were rather annoying. As a group we often texted each other for deadlines, but most of our actual communication about the project work was posted in basecamp. Basecamp made it easy to share and upload new versions in a quick and convenient factor, and when splitting up tasks, that helped a lot.
We frequently used the ability to upload and download files, particularly larger files. It was nice to work from basecamp as the servers were relatively fast. However, once we uploaded these files, we often made minute changes or sometimes wished we could just change the name. The ability to not change names and limited time to edit posts was somewhat frustrating. One time, we had the wrong file zipped with another file and we couldn't change its name and found out after 15 minutes, so couldn't edit the post. This led to confusion and just caused us to spend more time than should have been necessary. We also seemed to find that campfire should just be built into the messages within the general basecamp group area. We typically used messages so we could alert eachother with emails when major stuff got done. If we had the ability to chat within the message, it would've been a bit more useful.
In my opinion, our greatest success was getting iPlan to work with Facebook. None of us had any experience working with Facebook, and with its many bugs combined with assembling it into mobile jquery, it was a miracle we were able to get it working in time. Our biggest failure was choosing jquery mobile; it seemed to fight many of the calls or require a separate work around just for jquery's sake. After getting the facebook calls to work, we had to spend an additional 8 hours recoding for it to work with jquery.
If we were to do it again, we definitely would drop mobile jquery. It simply hasn't had enough time to fully develop. Besides CSS3 is starting to sprout, it would be a bit of fun to use CSS3 transitions and such. Other than that I was pretty happy with our outcome. On a fast server iPlan would definitely get some users.

Talk about an identity crisis for Scott Brown and Massachusetts voters. Scott Brown famously won election as the Republican senator from Massachusetts who promised to block President Obama's controversial healthcare reform initiative. Now he's running for re-election as the Republican senator from Massachusetts who supports Obama's equally controversial recess appointment. Brown is edging left. Or, is he straddling center? He calls his recent political positioning a sign of independence. Democrats call it expedience. The ultimate definition will be up to voters.
