Each July, depending on funding availability, DCEO's Office of Energy Assistance provides funding so that local Community Action Agencies (CAA) can offer cooling assistance to eligible households. The Summer Program is similar to the LIHEAP program in that it provides eligible households with a one-time payment to the utility to help make their summertime cooling bills more affordable.
This program is targeted to at-risk households, defined as seniors, persons with disabilities, families with children less than 36 months of age as of the date of the application, and those with medical conditions that would be aggravated by extreme heat.
To qualify for this assistance, at-risk households must have an income less than or equal to 150% of the poverty level as defined by the federal Department of Health and Human Services (HHS):
For further information on eligibility, please contact your local Community Action Agency.
For Additional assistance, please feel free to call the Energy Assistance Hotline at (877) 411-9276.

It isn't just the riders in the world's biggest stage race flashing their frames, components and kits (and whatever else they may have to flash). This is, after all, the Tour de France so you give the best you've got no matter whether you're a ProTour squad or a TV Crew. As you know, there is whole lot more to Tour de France than just a bunch of riders trying to get from A to B without crashing into each other. Behind the scenes is an army of Press whose sole objective is to bring you the latest news and pictures of the Le Action.
ASO-approved broadcaster - TV2 Denmark Sporten - is part of the Press Corp, but isn't just any old TV Crew. For starters TV2 Denmark Sporten is one of the key-broadcasters providing most airtime of Le Tour in Europe. Secondly the crew of TV2 not only comprises of highly skilled presenters and technical crew, but equally of legends such as former Tour de France stage winner Rolf Soerensen alongside legendary film director and poet Joergen Leth - famous for his classic cycling films A Sunday In Hell and Stars & Watercarriers.
TV2 Denmark Sporten also felt the only clothing suitable for three weeks of intensive broadcasting was a selection of Rapha threads: Wearing Base Layers, Logo T-shirts, Rapha Trousers, Wind Jackets and Softshells, the TV2 Denmark Sporten TdF crew - comprising five presenters, nine technical and anchor Thomas Kristensen - is probably the best dressed TV Crew at the Tour.
If you're a Danish citizen and/or have permanent address in Denmark you may want to participate in our competition with TV2 Denmark Sporten to win - not only a Rapha "Le Tour" album - but possibly also a VIP trip to L'Etape du Tour 2012.

The America Reads Challenge began as a national initiative in 1997 in response to the alarming test scores of many 3rd grade readers. President Bill Clinton allocated extra work-study funds to any college or university that agreed to use at least half of those funds to pay students to tutor children in literacy skills. Montana State University signed on right away and began recruiting, training, and placing MSU student tutors with children in area schools in the fall of 1997. By 1999 the United States Department of Education expanded the America Reads Program to include math tutoring, and so was born America Reads*America Counts.
Since starting work in the Bozeman area community in 1997, over 600 college student work-study and volunteer tutors have served well over 2500 children in area schools who were struggling with either math or literacy skill development. Today the MSU America Reads*America Counts program continues to work with and support area children to achieve and succeed academically.
The America Reads*America Counts program is managed by the MSU Office of Activities & Engagement.
Now accepting tutor applications for the 2012-2013 academic year. Work-study and volunteer positions available!
Meet the 2012-2013 Compact Service Corps Co-Coordinators:
Damon Alm
I am small town man hailing from Highwood, Montana. Highwood is a very small and close knit community with the school and agriculture being the backbone. Growing up in such a small community was the biggest blessing for me. I was surrounded by people who only wanted the best for me. I was taught that you must work hard both in and out of the classroom. I attribute my beloved community, the people in it, and my family to molding me in to the man I am today. No matter what I do, I want to do it to the best of my ability and with all that I have, treating people with respect and dignity. As Michael Jordan once said, "Some people want it to happen, some wish it would happen, and others make it happen." I always want to be the person to make it happen. In my spare time I enjoy watching or playing any sport, waterskiing, cliff jumping, swimming and just being outdoors. Kids are very near to my heart and are the reason I joined this program. Alongside great leadership I believe this program will continue to grow and serve Bozeman kids to the best of its abilities, where the students will always be our top priority. Our tutors will not only help students with their schoolwork but will be role models in each student's life. Thank you for looking in to our program. I look forward to a great year with MSU America Reads*America Counts.

Welcome to the MSU America Reads*America Counts homepage! We are excited you are checking out our program, and I have no doubt you will like what you find. Though a Colorado native, I integrated quickly into the Bozeman community, trying my hand at fly-fishing, mountain biking, dancing, and most recently getting involved in the triathlon scene. I will be going into my fourth year at Montana State, studying Mathematics and Spanish with teaching options. I am passionate about the opportunities that education provides within the Bozeman community, and look forward to watching the growth of the students in our program each year. I am hoping to make 2012-2013 the best year yet for MSU AR*AC, with the help of my co-coordinator, Damon!

I despise clutter, but only because I have so much of it and because it is something I will always have to fight fight fight against, until the day I die.
Where I live, we don't have crawlspaces or attics or basements to speak of. People with too much junk end up paying to keep the local U-Stor-It facilities going strong, or they end up with garages they can't walk in. Forget parking a car! Some people just give up and make the garage into another room of the house, so when they open the big garage door, all you see is a 2-foot space where there's a lawn mower, weed wacker, and a wall! I know one person who actually installed a window in that wall. It's too bad they have to open their garage door AND THEN open the window if they want that room to get any sunlight or fresh air. WTF!
Long ago I promised myself (and mostly do a decent job of it) that every time I build a new computer, one of my post-upgrade activities is to rotate out old parts that are no longer relevant. My last two computers did not use floppy ribbon cables, parallel PATA cables, or removable PATA drive bays, so the next community garage sale attendees will have lots of my old mercury-laden equipment to choose from. And I'll happily charge them an extra 50 cents just to let them have the privilege of moving my junk into their homes!
At any point in time, I still have 6 boxes worth of old equipment, plus some stuff on the shelves in my home office. I'm happy if I can avoid adding to that number and even happier still if the stuff in the home office is relevant, current, and occasionally gets used.

Just noticed this thread type thing. Was going to post some stuff like funny Immortal vids, how awsome Negative Plane are or whatnot but it looks like Spacewalk beat me to about 90% of it.
Ildjarn (i.e. how to be as raw as possible without actually resorting to being noise)
Sort Voktor (i.e. Ildjarn with Keyboards)
Graveland (Horrible recording quality, dodgy politics, awful drumming, but music clicks with me)

It's because I'm totally obsessed of metal.
Posting this in memory of Cory Smoot, the guitarist from GWAR who was also the character Flattus Maximus. R.I.P.
Nice to hear an Abigail song from a time before everything Yasayuki did revolved around his penis.THRASH 'TIL DIE
Talking about Attacking with Spell...
Songs involving fucking growns and masterbating to kill yourself should be crowned.
And on a side note why do I like music with really, really bad timing?
Seein as they're playing in Dublin tonight and a lot of my friends are going. Christopher Lee was speaking in my college yesterday... coincidence?
I wouldn't be surprised considering that they got him to do the narration on Dark Avenger when they re-recorded Battle Hymns last year so maybe he will make an appearance.
Hellhammer is probably to blame. Or Venom, they couldn't play either. Are you familiar with both? I've found that listening to Hellhammer demos and Welcome To Hell back-to-back for an entire week erases any concepts of musical virtuosity and stellar productions from your mind.
Orson Welles is dead! Ol Mr Lee is a suitable replacement though.
I hope I know Hellhammer considering I have the Demon Entrails 3 LP sitting in my vinyl box alongside a beat-up car boot copy of Apoc raids.
The question was kinda rhetorical though. Pick a few of the old 80s bands like Venom, Hellhammer, Sodom, Napalm Death, Possessed or whatnot and you get the old FASTER FASTER FASTER! vibe from them. Playing far faster then you are capable of keeping time with? WHO CARES! FASTER!!! AGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
Today's soundtrack is provided by Burzum
and Nile
What do these bands have in common? I spent the past two hours sewing patches on my jacket.
That Angel Of Death album slays, probably not in the top tier of thrash metal (pretty close though) but it still does the job.
I thought no one played this kind of music these days. Warbringer.
Oh, and while we're at it, there's another band I've stumbled upon recently - Lazarus A.D. They play some sort of modern-thrash-metal-stuff, I'm not too good at pointing out subgenres. Anyway, I like it for some reason.

The meeting, at Temple Sinai, had been called to dis¬ cuss "The Ejttreme Right — a Threat to Democracy?" Anti-Semitic leaflets were spread over the lawn facing the synagogue while the meeting was under way. The bombs had damaged the homes of the two ministers, the Rev. John G. Simmons and the Rev. Brooks Walker, but no one was Injured. A third speaker at the meeting was film actress Mar¬ sha Hunt. According to Miss Hunt, crudely lettered posters, linking the United Nations emblem with the Star of Pavid and the Com¬ munist hammer-and-aiciUe sym¬ bol, were also scattered while the meeting was in progress. Miss Hunt is president of the San Fer¬ nando chapter of the American Association for the United Na¬ tions. Police here said that only tiny parts from the bombs used have thus far furnished any clue to the perpetrators ot the bombing. The homes of the two ministers as well as of Miss Hunt were being guarded. Police Inspector Edward Walker said he wtis not certain whether the bombing had been done by followers of right-wing groups or by Communists. Spokes¬ men for both .the Communist Party and the John Birch Society denied any of their followers were involved. A statement issued in New York by Dr. Joachim Prinz, national president of the American Jewish Congress, said the bombings marked "an ominous, new phas« in the campaign of the extreme right wing to destroy the liberties of the American people." He blamed "fanatics of the Right" tor the bombings, declaring: "By their resort to violence, they have sought to silence all those Ameri¬ cans who would defend the rlghti and free^Joms which are everv citizen's birthright In this country The anti-Semitic leaflets sprev-'l on the lawn ot the synagogue where the meeting took place ad i an ugly footnote to the story.

Caramelized onions can take hours to make and often turn out stringy, dry, or charred. Here's how to produce this simple but universal condiment in just 45 minutes.
Too often, caramelized onions are a waste of time-yielding burnt, gummy, bland, or greasy results. Some recipes produce onions that are much too sweet, while others seem barely cooked.
Sweet, glossy, with complex flavor, caramelized onions have a pedigree far superior to the mongrel side dish offered at your local steakhouse. Made with only four ingredients (not counting salt, pepper, and water) and featuring the most common of all pantry staples, caramelized onions easily play a wide range of culinary roles, from condiment for burgers to sauce for roast chicken.
Sauté the onions in a nonstick pan in butter and oil over high heat for the first five minutes to quickly release the moisture, then cook over medium heat for 45 minutes for clear onion flavor and a yielding yet firm texture. For flavoring, add just a little light brown sugar, salt, and black pepper.

Several Wauwatosa police officers stood in the back of the courtroom during Sebena's appearance with black bands over their badges to honor Jennifer Sebena.
The Wauwatosa Police Department and Department of Justice held a brief news conference later Thursday afternoon to discuss the officer's death and the arrest of her husband.
"She was everything I could hope for in a young police officer," Weber said. "We are devastated by what has happened."
Weber read a statement from Jennifer Sebena's mother:
"We would like to thank the Wauwatosa Police Department, the Wisconsin Department of Justice, the Milwaukee County Sheriff's Department, the Milwaukee Police Department and many assisting agencies for their outstanding support at this difficult time. We appreciate everyone's thoughts and prayers and that you continue to respect our family's privacy going forward.
According to the criminal complaint, officer Sebena was shot five times and was located outside of her squad car outside of the Wauwatosa Fire Station around 4:28 a.m. on Christmas Eve.

VIDEO: Rensselaer County's rural towns still show their resilience one year after Irene
Editor's Note: This story is part of the first installment of a two-day series which looks at the impacts Tropical Storm Irene continues to have on the Capital Region a year after the storm hit.
Today's stories focus on the ongoing recovery efforts in the village of Waterford and Rensselaer County.
Monday's stories take a closer look at the Troy landslide and the Red Cross' role during the disaster.
POESTENKILL — Nearly a year ago Tropical Storm Irene brought 10-18 inches of rainfall to the Northeast, triggering flooding that left widespread devastation in its wake. Now, remnants of the disaster are scarce, repairs are largely complete, and precautionary measures are evident across the county.
The deluge hit rural, hilly areas in New York and Vermont especially hard by flooding when Irene soaked the East Coast last August. In Rensselaer County, the rural towns of Poestenkill and Petersburgh were the scenes of major damage.
"Like two different worlds"
The Friday before the storm hit, Poestenkill Supervisor Dominic Jacangelo remembers gathering around a table with other town officials and discussing how to prepare for the forthcoming storm. According to Jacangelo, everyone was on alert, but no one realized the magnitude of the devastation that was about to come down the creek and into their small town.
"We all kind of said, 'Okay, we've all seen floods before, and we know the SOP (Standard Operating procedures) for this,'" said Jacangelo. "Everybody was on alert, but certainly no one was panicked."
By Aug. 28, it had been raining for several hours. "Hard rain," said Jacangelo, who watched it from his kitchen. Jacangelo decided that he would head down from his house to where the Poesten Kill passed through the center of the hamlet, to see how high the stream had risen. When he arrived, "it was like two different worlds."
While the hamlet of Poestenkill only received six to seven inches of rainfall, the plateau above the hamlet, on which half the town is located, received ten inches or more. The plateau is part of 30,000 acres that drain into the Poesten Kill. Over the storm's 12-hour duration rainfall runoff flowed down from this basin before flowing into the Poesten Kill, which was already swollen by tributaries and smaller streams. The stream, normally a trickle, soon became a raging torrent that plowed into the hamlet, ripping through homes, scattering boulders, and changing its own course before tearing down to its South Troy inlet and dumping into the Hudson River. Continued...
Jacangelo witnessed the water's power: "I remember watching these 75- to 100-year-old trees one by one topple into the creek. These trees were a 100 feet tall or taller, and they were just being broken like matchsticks by the water, jammed under the bridge, and taken down river."
By mid-afternoon Sunday, a crowd had gathered on and near the Route 351 bridge over the creek to watch the torrent, and see what it had acquired.
"There was everything under the sun coming down the river, including the kitchen sink," said the supervisor. "It was very dangerous; we had a lot of propane tanks coming down."
Around 4 p.m. the Fire Department began removing onlookers from the bridge in order to keep them from being impaled by the branches of the floating trees. After passing under the bridge, those trees, and other detritus, then headed downstream and became lodged in a narrow behind Barbara Madsen's home that became clogged and acted like a dam, diverting water over the stream banks and inundating houses in the area.
"I've never seen anything like it and I moved in some 49 years ago," said Madsen, shortly after the devastation.
While the flood damage spared most of the town, Madsen's property at 5 Franklin St. was not.
The diverted floodwaters swept away the flowers on Madsen's back lawn, replacing them with rocks, and a trailer with her son's $13,000 motorcycle floated 150 feet before it became wedged in trees four feet off the ground.
"(The trailer) went across the road and in front of my neighbor's home, and settled it in some trees, very fortunately," said Madsen. The bike, only a little scratched up, was quickly recovered, while the trailer required heavy machinery to remove. Unfortunately, her home suffered far worse.
The floodwaters also entered Madsen's ranch, flowed into her living room, and left nearly a foot of water causing damage that Madsen then estimated at nearly $50,000. She now believes that number to be closer to $90,000.
On Sept. 1, 2011, Rensselaer County was declared eligible for individual FEMA aid to homeowners, renters, and businesses. The assistance, for which Madsen applied and received, included grants and loans to help pay for temporary housing, home repairs, and other disaster-related expenses not covered by insurance. A retiree who did not have flood insurance and could ill-afford the damage, Madsen had to rely heavily on aid, and has since completed repairs to her home. Continued...
FEMA flood aid
On nearby Plank Road, the creek not only washed out the road and Audrey Davis' backyard, but also undermined the back half of her house, washing away the foundation, and left a view of the creek through where her floor had been. While Davis was not home at the time, she had lived in the house for 70 years — until the storm's destruction made decide to leave the area permanently. The back half of the house has since been demolished, repairs have been made to the rest, and the house is now on the market.
Of immediate concern after the storm was that emergency services could not reach residents in the east end of town, where Plank Road had been completely washed out, cutting off the residents from the rest of the community. Moreover, if there was an emergency, the stranded residents could not contact the town because telephone service had become cut off. A telephone switching station near Davis' house had become flooded and knocked out not only the landlines, but also had cut off service from the only cell phone tower in the area.
Within three days all the roads in the hamlet were passable, and over the next two weeks 25,000 pounds of material were moved up the nearby mountain to repair the roads, and reconnect the town. Repairs to the creek were made soon after, with the bed being re-dug in some places, and the creek banks being built or re-built in others. This summer, the town just finished one of the last repairs of the damage, the replacement of several thousand-gallon concrete cisterns buried in the creek. These cisterns collect water from the creek's trickle, so that there if there is a need the Fire Department can pump water from the stream. During the storm, the cistern's were dug out of the creek bottom and tossed downstream.
From a survey of the damage conducted shortly after the storm, the town estimated home and personal property losses of approximately $3.9 million. The town incurred $592,457 worth of repairs, for which they applied for FEMA aid. This cost was to be covered 75 percent by the federal government, 12.5 percent by the state, and 12.5 percent by municipalities. But with a local budgets already strained, and restricted by a 2 percent property tax cap that Cuomo implemented in 2011, local leaders clamored for greater state aid.
In June, Cuomo announced that the state would be covering more local recovery costs incurred after the deluge. Specifically, $61 million was marked for road, water, and other infrastructure repair and clean-up projects, with $3.5 million headed to localities in Rensselaer County, an amount proportional to the estimated cost of the damage.
Most of this money will go to pay for old bills for emergency work completed in the days and weeks after the storm, such as the emergency contracts that the town of Poestenkill awarded in order to fix Plank Mill, a length of Route 40.
"There was a tremendous coming together in the town," said Jacangelo. In the days after the storm, a fundraiser was held down at the fire house for people impacted by the storm; the local business association wrote checks, "on the spot," to people who needed a bed and a warm shower, said the supervisor; and within a few weeks a community service group from RPI was helping with the cleanup.
"Our business was pummeled" Continued...
Unfortunately, the disastrous flood was not contained to one or two small towns, nor did it discriminate where or who was hit as it just as likely to strike businesses as individuals. When a nearby river began flooding in Petersburgh, it washed out a portion of the nearby Route 22, removed Dill Brook Road completely, and turned the Aqua Vista Campground into a floodplain.
Overflow from the Little Hoosick River and nearby Route 22 covered much of small low-lying campground at 72 Armsby Road, flooding 73 of the 155 campsites, cutting off electric and water, and damaging approximately two dozen recreational vehicles, one of which floated downstream.
Lee Weliczka, one half of the husband and wife team that run the campground, witnessed the flooding firsthand. "There was no warning, no radio broadcast."
The campground was flooded by both the Little Hoosick, which was nine feet above normal, and runoff from Route 22, whose drainage system could not accommodate the unusually high rainfall.
In the immediate aftermath of the storm the Weliczkas rented dozers, excavators and hired drivers to remove debris and repair the damage. Since then they have poured money back into the campground, hoping to boost business after a couple of disaster-ridden years.
The campground had previously been hit in 2010 by 80 mile per hour straight line winds, which knocked down trees across the campground damaging cars and campers. After the damage, business did not pick up that summer. Then, in 2011, Tropical Storm Irene hit, which was followed by additional flooding shortly thereafter from Tropical Storm Lee.
"Our business was pummeled," said Lee. "This should have put us out of business." She explained that business this year has not yet picked up, and that they only had about 80 of their seasonal campers, whereas they had more than a 100 previously. "Normally we have some large groups at this time of year, but I don't think they even thought we were up and running yet."
After Irene, the Weliczkas built a berm next to the Little Hoosick to prevent it from flooding the campground again, improved the drainage under Route 22 by having the state install larger, seven inch culverts, and have since opened a new in ground pool two weeks ago. They are hoping the new investment will turn their campground's fortunes around.
Although there was aid available for certain businesses from FEMA, Aqua Vista did not qualify, nor did they receive reimbursement from any insurance companies. Fortunately, no one was injured at Aqua Vista, nor in any of the flooding around the county.
"The impact on homes and businesses was immeasurable, but we are fortunate here in the county that no one was injured, and that, I think, is a real testament to the emergency responders and to concerned neighbors," said County Executive Kathleen Jimino.
"A real sense of loss"
When all repairs are completed, damage is expected to have cost the county, towns, and individuals $28 million. The county government expects to incur a total cost of approximately $3 million, with $2.1 million being costs already incurred — for which the county is waiting on an additional $700,000 reimbursement — and $888,000 worth of work left to be completed, according to Jimino.
She pointed out that all the work is being funded by the federal government, and not with the county's hazard mitigation funds, nor does it cover costs incurred by towns, cities, or individuals.
Repair work undertaken by the county is ongoing, with the expectation that all repairs will be finished by the end of summer. According to Deputy County Executive Chris Meyer, work will be done on Blue Factory, Toad Point, Dill Brook, and Indian Massacre roads this summer, along with general debris removal, weather permitting.
Originally, the federal government was going to cover 75 percent of local repair costs, with the state covering 12.5 percent, and municipalities covering 12.5 percent. However, the federal government has since agreed to cover the additional 12.5 percent aid.
Although residents across the county are thankful that no one was hurt, and that so much support was given by the communities, not least of all those in the small towns hit hard.
"When you were in the hamlet and the area that was impacted there was a real sense of loss," said Jacangelo. "This is a small town, a small town community with people who have lived here an awful long time. To see what they faced that week — it was very emotional."

Giro d'up North
Photos by Laura 'Lady' Bower and Jack 'Vino' Saunders
Rapha's tour of the north began on Friday in the boutique district of Manchester and ended on Sunday beside the crooked spire of Chesterfield Church. And whilst some might suggest Rapha had no business being at that latitude, it certainly wasn't grim up there.
On Friday and Saturday the first Rapha Sample Sale north of Hampstead took us to the sunny streets of Manchester. We set up amongst various coffee shops and purveyors of adult videos at the Thomas St. Post Office. One lady walking past enquired as to why there were people queuing around the block to post a letter.
It was rather hot inside the 'Post Office' due to the glorious weather outside but we managed to get a decent feed of the climactic stage of this year's Giro d'Italia on the TV. However, the streaming cut out just before Thomas De Gendt attacked on the Mortirolo. Not to worry, plenty of bargains were bagged and everyone managed to cope with the heat, partially thanks to cold beer and ice cream.
Meanwhile, over in Sheffield, a well-affiliated group of riders congregated outside the legendary Nonna's for a spin in the sunshine. They rode out of the Steel City to meet the Rapha H-Van en route and return to enjoy pasta, wine and that incredible Giro stage. For anyone who doesn't know Sheffield, it's the closest you'll come to an Italian town, with a rich heritage of road cycling, very hospitable people and accents that are hard to understand.
On Sunday there was more riding and more sunshine scheduled. Another Nonna's affiliated ride set out, this time from their other restaurant in Chesterfield (not Tuscany) although the numbers were depleted somewhat due to the amount of vino consumed the night before. But Rapha Condor Sharp's Dean Downing still managed to make an appearance alongside another local lad, Malcolm Elliott.
Over in Manchester a simultaneous ride set off towards Chesterfield through the Peak District. Dodging broken glass on the way out, a group of twelve or so led by Jack Briggs of Rapha embarked on a gorgeous 100kms of rolling and sometimes punishing topography into the Peaks. It wasn't too dissimilar to the voluptuous landscape of central Italy, only less vineyards and a lot more sheep. Again the friendly disposition of all we rode with and nonstop sunshine made it a memorable journey over to the H-Van in the village of Yulegreave. One or two espressi later and we took a couple more climbs and a big descent into 'C-Town' for some pasta and a pint of Peroni or two. A great weekend and distinctly Italian themed, even if a Canadian did end up wearing the pink jersey…
Thanks to all who rode and made it a weekend to remember including Gian at Nonna's, Kati for her coffee skills and Ben for driving the H-Van for 400 plus miles.

Glorious sunshine, amazing views, epic terrain, and as justin says 'true gentlemen' thanks to all the Rapha team and co riders, a great route chosen from manchester to Chesterfield. A special mention for the legendary broomwagon, with its great coffee and bananas, glad you made it back Ben! Also thanks to Nonna's chesterfield for the pasta which enabled me to ride my last leg back to Nottingham, making a 165K ride. Thanks all for a great day.
Me thinks the next sample sale in Nottingham with a ride through some rolling Nottinghamshire and leicestershire terrain with Sir paul Smith to cheer us off from his home town store on Byard lane. cheers again Adrian

An epic ride, you haven't really experienced suffering until your tailing somebody with a holey skinsuit.
Martin Dallaghan
13th June 2012 12:11am
I'll never live the hole appearing in that skin suit down! Still a fantastic experience - a sort of top of the pops of the most beautiful and harder climbs of the district. Great coffee, good banter and some lovely pasta at the end! Come back Rapha people and with a new skin suit for me just in case my lady friend can't mend my most beloved one!ai

It's official: Juanes, the Colombian pop superstar, will perform at the Grammy Awards show. His presence, though hardly surprising, likely will give the broadcast a ratings boost with Latino viewers.
He also performed Wednesday evening at USC as part of the fourth annual "Grammy in the Schools Live! — A Celebration of Music & Education," which showcased several high school music-training and education initiatives that are supported by the Grammy Foundation.
PHOTOS: Top nominees | Snubs & surprises | Nominations concert | Full coverage
Juanes' chart-topping record "MTV: Unplugged," which won last year's Latin Grammy album of the Year, is a leading contender to win the Grammy prize for Latin pop album. The singer-guitarist-songwriter also is the only Latin artist 's scheduled to perform at Friday's 2013 Musicares Person of the Year tribute to Bruce Springsteen.
Juanes joins a wide slate of confirmed Grammy performers, including the Black Keys, Taylor Swift, Justin Timberlake, Frank Ocean and Elton John.
CBS will broadcast the Grammys live from Staples Center on Sunday, except on the West Coast, where they will begin at 8 p.m.

Financial Aid Eligibility Policies
The receipt of financial aid is a privilege that creates both rights and obligations. The United States Department of Education requires every postsecondary institution receiving federal funds (Title IV) to have an academic progress policy that is used to determine eligibility for and continued receipt of federal funds. The satisfactory academic progress (SAP) policy has two components: first the students are required to maintain a specified cumulative GPA; and second they must complete a specified percentage of all courses attempted.
• Undergraduate students must maintain a cumulative GPA of at least 2.0
• Graduate students must maintain a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0
• Law students must maintain a cumulative GPA of 2.2
Students must complete the appropriate percent of all courses attempted since enrollment at the current academic level (undergraduate, graduate, or professional). The completion percentage is calculated by dividing total hours earned by total hours attempted.
It is also important to understand how specific grades and/or course types count toward the completion ratio.
The following grades count as attempted but not completed courses:
Both transfer and advanced placement credits count as attempted and completed courses. Co-op placement does not count as either attempted or completed courses.
The required completion percentages are detailed in the chart below.
Academic progress is checked at the end of each academic year (Drexel's academic year is measured from September to September for quarter programs and August to August for semester programs). Failure to meet the minimum completion percentage (of attempted vs. completed credit hours) or maintain the minimum GPA will result in the cancellation of all federal financial aid as well as institutional funds. Students whose aid is canceled are not eligible for additional financial aid until the necessary coursework is completed or the GPA is improved.
Students failing academic progress requirements may submit an appeal for consideration if there were extenuating circumstances such as a serious illness or death of a parent that prevented the student from being successful. Official notification of a SAP failure will include instructions regarding the appeals process. Successful appeals can result in reinstatement of financial aid under a financial aid probation status. During the course of study at the current academic level (undergraduate, graduate, or professional) a student may submit no more than two appeals for reinstatement of financial aid due to a SAP failure. Additionally, no student may be considered for aid for more than 150 percent of his or her published program length (for example a student in a 4 year program may not received financial aid for more than 6 years).

Note: Merit awards have a different standard for renewal.
Note: Medical students have a separate Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy.

Contralateral distribution of Nonmelanoma Skin Cancer between older Hispanic/Latino and Non-Hispanic/Non-Latino Individuals
British Journal of Dermatology, 08/17/2012
McLeod MP et al. – Nonmelanoma skin cancer appears to be more common on the left side of older, Non–Hispanic/Non–Latino individuals, while it is more common on the right side of older, Hispanic/Latino individuals; likely secondary to an environmental factor, such as ultraviolet radiation. Nonmelanoma skin cancer is significantly more common in males relative to females, which may be attributed to differences in gender roles or referral practices.

Thread started: Sep 29 2010, 9:59 AM EDT
Bruno has to go. He is full of himself and was way out of line with regard to his comment about Michael Bolton. Granted Michael wasn't a very good dancer, however, he wasn't the worst in all of the eleven seasons. The rude comments were an issue when Billy Ray Cyrus danced and he was very vocal about it and I have to believe he said something to the produces because in the following seasons the rude comments from the judges subsided. Len did the right thing by calling Bruno on the carpet with his rude comment and score of 3 for Michael. It's even worse now that I heard Michael's 90 year old mother flew in for the show. This was week 2 not week 8 Bruno needs to make a public apology and keep comments like that to himself if he continues to be a judge but I believe he needs to be replaced.........
