In terms of ecology, our mindset continues to shift, and consumers increasingly choose greener options when offered them. We now offer a range of display products that acknowledge and respect these trends.
The Planet range is a high quality portfolio of free standing tension banners, roll-ups and literature display stands built to high standard, using only renewable high quality bamboo.
The result is an array of products that are elegant, functional, portable and moisture resistant.
Having long been proven as an excellent manufacturing material in tropical climes, the enormous benefits of bamboo are now being realised globally. Importantly, bamboo crops are entirely sustainable. And when our products reach the end of their useful life, they are recyclable and ultimately biodegradable.
In order to comply with environmental legislation, all items within our Planet product range have been protected with an eco-friendly lacquer coating to further enhance each product's natural look and feel.
We can now also offer graphics that are biodegradable, called BioMedia.
BioMedia is an polymer and polyefin composite based product with an enzyme additive that accelerates the breakdown of the polymer chain via enzymatic/bacterial digestion, when left in a microbe rich environment.
It is the microbe-friendly additive that grants BioMeida biodegradability. The problem with other "green" plastics like PLA is that they a) do not biodegrade quickly - analysts estimate that a PLA bottle will take between 100 and 1000 years to biodegrade. With BioMedia we know that in the right conditions the product will biodegrade within 5 years.

The intense competition of a trade show requires an attention grabbing stands. However, when trying to get the most for your money, take into account the time involved in setting up your stand, the frequency of your shows and whether or not you'll be reusing the same stand.
A unique, custom built stand can look very impressive. However, keep in mind that costs will involve not just the stand itself, but also its transportation, storage and time it will take to install and take down. What's more some components of your custom built stand will need to be replaced at each trade show.
If your stand is travelling to many shows, a cost effective alternative is a portable stand. In addition to its time and cost savings benefits, portable stands can be used repeatedly. Both alternatives have their place. However, rather than regard portable stands as merely a less expensive alternative, consider the many benefits that go beyond price.
The most common portable stand, often referred to as a "pop-up", is a simple, two by two metre curved backdrop. A major misconception is that all portable stands have this same look. However, our brand of portable architecture can be configured into a variety of shapes and sizes, including curve rooms, towers, s-shapes and arches.
With a flick of the wrist the QUAD Portable Architecture frame can be expanded and cotracted in a matter of seconds. Using mag-bars, the roll-out graphics fit neatly together for a seamless look and when its time for your stand to be packed away, all parts fit into a wheeled carry case.
A major cost saving advantage of our Portable Architecture system is that once you've invested in the frame, graphics can be interchanged to create a totally new look for different shows. Individual panels can be updated when new products are launched or prices are changed.
Our Portable Architecture system also comes with a free configuration service, enabling you to change the shape of your stand as many times as you like. At one show you can have a tall tower and at another an archway. You can even create a smaller version of your stand for a smaller show or at your office foyer. Compared to the cost of having to build a new stand for every show, this versatility is equivalent to saving thousands of pounds.
Our Portable Architecture system comes with a multitude of optional extras, such as spotlights and shleving, showcase and banner bridges, TFT screen holders, to name a few. Such items will help enhance your stand to create a more permanent look.
Custom built stands have their place. In order to achieve certain looks, custom building your stand may be a more appropriate option. This is why at Quad we can offer advise on all types of exhibition stands and styles.

You'll visit the doctor more during your pregnancy than you probably have ever before, and the multitude of procedures your OB will offer can be a little overwhelming.
Broadening their reports on consumer value and getting the most bang for your recession-heavy buck, Consumer Reports recently weighed in on the 10 procedures they think you should think twice about agreeing to.
Topping the list: unnecessary C-sections. At a time when about one-third of all deliveries are by C-section, it's no surprise—that's almost triple what the World Health Organization considers an optimal statistic.
Here's the rest of the list, but you might consider reading the full article for all the medical reasoning behind their choices:
2. An automatic second C-section (VBAC)
3. An elective early delivery
4. Induction of labor without medical reason
5. Ultrasounds after 24 weeks
6. Continuous electronic fetal monitoring
7. Early epidurals
8. Routinely rupturing the amniotic membranes
9. Routine episiotomies
10: Sending your newborn to the nursery
Did you reject a procedure during your pregnancy? Is there a procedure your doctor has offered that you're thinking twice about?

Paris, 03 Mar 2006
Satellite measurements of a steep difference in sea surface height between the western and eastern tropical Pacific support predictions that a La Niña event is in the offing. El Niño's chillier sister, La Niña is linked to opposing but equally wide-ranging shifts in weather patterns. Hundreds of years ago fishermen off the west coast of Peru noted how periodically around Christmas time the waters grew unusually warm and fish became scarce: a phenomenon they called 'the Christ Child' - El Niño. It begins when a mass of warmer water from the western Pacific moves east, displacing cooler, nutrient-rich waters in the vicinity. This warmer water adds moisture to the atmosphere, raises rainfall levels and disrupts atmospheric circulation on a global basis.
La Niña is an equivalent cooling event during which the warm waters shift westwards to induce upwelling of cold water, reducing rainfall in the eastern equatorial Pacific but increasing it in the west. Researchers now recognise that these twin extremes of El Niño and La Niña are ocean components of a larger phenomenon that extends to the atmosphere, called the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO). Back in the 1920s meteorologist Sir Gilbert Walker noticed seasonal fluctuations in the air pressure difference across the equatorial Pacific, which he called the Southern Oscillation, and in the 1960s the realisation came this was linked to El Niño and La Niña events. Inter-annual ENSO variations can influence weather patterns worldwide, and researcher seek to combine all available data for enhanced understanding and forecasting.
So today, as the Pacific warm pool shifts westward and La Niña's 'cold tongue' of cool water extends across the eastern Pacific, it is being monitored via a global ocean observing system that includes an important space element.
Sea surface height (SSH) is not constant but varies across the global ocean, with vertical expansion due to increased water temperature being one of the main reasons why: warm water masses can stand up to a metre higher than the surrounding sea. Satellite radar altimeters measure sea surface height down to a maximum accuracy of two centimetres.
Instruments such as the Radar Altimeter-2 (RA-2) on ESA's Envisat bounce 1800 radar pulses per second off the Earth's surface, measuring their return time to the nanosecond to calculate the precise signal distance travelled. The data returned over the open ocean helps to chart changes in sea surface temperature (SST). Altimetry data from Envisat and its predecessor mission ERS-2 are made available in near-real time, then blended with altimetry results from the French/US Jason-1 mission and the US GFO to ensure the best possible global ocean coverage. Current altimetry-derived sea level anomaly measurements show differences in SSH of 60 cm between the west and east Pacific. This wide-area view provided by altimetry-derived sea level anomaly data complements other in-situ sources, including the 70 buoys of the Tropical Ocean Atmosphere (TAO) array across the equatorial Pacific, operated by the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the TRIangle Trans-Ocean buoy Network (TRITON) array operated by Japan's Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports and Technology and also the more than 2000 global Argo profiling floats, which provide temperature and salinity profiles at various depths across the global ocean.
These results are then assimilated into sophisticated numerical models by weather centres worldwide, including the Reading-based European Centre for Medium Range Weather Forecasting (ECMWF) to help provide 'initial state' information to make seasonal forecasts of ocean states. The US NOAA Climate Prediction Center at the start of February announced that the conditions for a weak La Niña are in place - with central Pacific SST departing more than – 0.5° C for the last three months - and the event is likely to last into late spring and possibly summer.
"The development of a negative anomaly does seem to be well in hand," agrees altimetry expert Christophe Maes of the Institut de Recherche pour le Développement (IRD) in New Caledonia. "It will still take a few months for the scientific community to better comprehend what is going on because the system has often surprised us in the past. "If it is necessary to be careful in forecasting El Niño then it is all the more necessary for La Niña – not due to any feminine mystique but simply due to our lack of experience. La Niña events are simply less frequent than their male equivalents. This asymmetry has yet to be explained from a theoretical point of view at the current time."
The coming of La Niña is marked by shifts in global atmospheric circulation patterns, as colder than normal waters in the eastern tropical Pacific suppress rainfall in the vicinity, at the same time as increasing it to the west.
During the northern hemisphere winter, wetter than normal conditions are found over northern Australia and Indonesia. They also occur over the Philippines during the northern hemisphere summer, and Indian monsoon rainfall also increases, particularly in northwest India. Meanwhile South America's tropical west coast undergoes drier than normal winters.
In turn these shifts affect the position and weaken the intensity of jet streams and the behaviour of storms occurring beyond the tropics in both hemispheres, including a summer decrease in hurricane activity in the eastern tropical North Pacific and a corresponding increase in the number of hurricanes in the tropical North Atlantic. The last La Niña took place during 2000-2001, a weak event compared to the previous La Niña in 1998-2000 – it, and the 1988-89 event together setting the terms of reference for a 'standard' La Niña. Each week radar altimetry adds a new frame to the ongoing film being shot of the Pacific Ocean. Other satellite instrument types can gather additional detail on La Niña as it occurs: Envisat's Advanced Along Track Scanning Radiometer (AATSR) can measure sea surface temperature (SST) to an accuracy of 0.2 °C while the Medium Resolution Imaging Spectrometer on the same spacecraft monitors changes in ocean colour due to associated shifts in marine phytoplankton concentrations.
Through a lack of observational data, the scientific community found itself blindsided by the 1982-1983 El Niño, then regarded as the 'El Niño of the century'. Researchers' predictive ability was improved by the international Tropical Ocean-Global Atmosphere (TOGA) programme of 1985-1989, which set up the first in-situ observing system – including the array of buoys that currently make up the TAO-TRITON network.
However this array was mostly concentrated in the equatorial Pacific, so from the early 1990s onward, radar altimeters flown on ERS-1 and TOPEX/Poseidon began to prove themselves valuable means of monitoring and analysing ENSO events on a wider scale. In particular, researchers are utilising altimetry data to monitor the exchange of warm water across the Pacific in order to evaluate different theories of the build-up to ENSO events. ESA has been flying radar altimeters in space ever since the launch of ERS-1 in 1991, amassing a continuous 15 year dataset that covers not only the global ocean but also freshwater bodies, land surfaces and the cryosphere. This archive will extend further into the future, with a radar altimeter set to be included on the Sentinel-3 mission planned to support operational oceanography services developed as part of the Global Monitoring for Environment and Security (GMES) initiative of the European Union and ESA.
A major scientific symposium concerning '15 Years of Progress in Radar Altimetry' is taking place in Venice Lido from 13 to 18 March 2006. Jointly sponsored by ESA and the French space agency CNES, the event will include discussion of current and future scientific and operational applications of radar altimetry, and how altimetry data can be used in synergy with other satellite and in-situ results as well as computer modelling.

A's send Blackley to Astros
Houston, TX – The Houston Astros acquired left-handed pitcher Travis Blackley from the Oakland Athletics Thursday in exchange for minor league outfielder Jake Goebbert.
Blackley played a key role in Oakland's run to a surprising American League West title last season, but failed to make the club's Opening Day roster and was designated for assignment last week.
The native Australian went 6-4 with a 3.86 earned run average over 24 games, including 15 starts, for the A's in 2012. In his final outing of the season, Blackley held Texas to one run over six innings to lead Oakland to a 3-1 win that moved the Athletics into a first-place with the Rangers in the AL West.
Goebbert, a 13th-round pick of Houston in the 2009 MLB Draft, spent last season between Double-A Corpus Christi and Triple-A Oklahoma City and batted a combined .291 with 54 RBI.

Northwestern associate men's basketball coach Tavaras Hardy and wife Billée planned to deliver their second daughter at NU's Prentice Hospital. But the baby had a different idea.
The couple did not have time to head downtown early Monday morning, so they checked in at the University of Chicago Medical Center. Within 11 minutes, daughter Jasmine Lilyann joined the world.
Hardy, who starred at Northwestern, joked of the brainy U of C: "Maybe she'll be the analytical one in the family."

Did you hear the one about the comedian who laughed his way to the bank?
He wasn't cashing a check from the Upright Citizens Brigade.
The improv comedy troupe that launched the careers of Amy Poehler and Horatio Sanz stiffs comics, according to Kurt Metzger, who wasn't paid for his performance at a sold-out Friday night show at the East Village club.
On a typical night a comedy club pays $75 for a 10-minute gig, Metzger said. He expected a venue like UCB, which charges a nominal $5 or $10 per ticket, to pay $20 for his schtick.
But they gave him nothing except a drink ticket, which left Metzger in no mood for celebratory toasts.
"I don't know who the f–k runs UCB but you have tremendous improv balls to charge money for a Friday night show and not pay the comics anything," he ranted on Facebook Dec. 14. "I would LOVE to meet you in person."
A week later he came back to rip UCB on its own stage, and his rants continued on Facebook, where he posted that UCB told him its their stage might not pay but it "allows you experiment and give up the club act."
His punch line: "I experiment anywhere I please motherf- -ker, you don't f–king ALLOW me to do s–t. It's YOUR privilege to have ME experiment. You know how I know? YOU'RE CHARGING PEOPLE MONEY TO WATCH ME DO IT."
Metzger — who appeared on "Last Comic Standing" and wrote for David Chappelle's show — said a friend asked him to perform in UCB's weekend stand-up show, "If You Build It."
He said he was never told that he'd be doing a prime-time spot for nothing.
UCB co-founder Matt Besser and UCB comedian Ian Roberts last week explained the pay-it-forward philosophy of the theater. Roberts said that bigger names who sell out $10 shows help subsidize the free shows put on by up-and-coming artists.

Pilgrim grad Stenhouse shines in summer
In the spring, Kevin Stenhouse batted .303 for the University of Rhode Island baseball Rams. The Warwick resident and former Pilgrim star was then recruited to play for the Seacoast Mavericks of the Futures Summer Collegiate Baseball League.
And summer was even better than spring.
Stenhouse slugged his way to an FCBL record-setting .393 batting average. The first baseman/outfielder ripped 64 hits in 163 trips to the plate and brought home the league's batting championship trophy. His average was 37 points better than runner-up Sean Ryan of the Brockton Rox.
Stenhouse also slugged five home runs during 53 FCBL games. His sparkling stats also included an FCBL leading .495 on-base percentage, 40 runs scored, 32 walks, 13 doubles and a slugging percentage of .564. He stole 10 bases in 12 tries.
But the batting crown was only the beginning for the 6-3, 195-pounder who will enter his senior season at URI next month.
"Because of his outstanding play, Kevin Stenhouse was named our 2012 Most Valuable Player," said Futures League commissioner Chris Hall. "Kevin was also the recipient of the Adam Keenan Sportsmanship and Scholarship Award."
Keenan played for the Mavericks last summer and died suddenly. Team officials created the sportsmanship and scholarship in his memory.
"I was completely surprised with that award," Stenhouse said of the Keenan honor. "I had no idea that I was getting it. It's named after a player who passed away because of an undiagnosed heart disease. I definitely understand what it means to receive an award like this."
Added Hall: "Kevin was a true MVP. He's an offensive powerhouse. He's just like an old-time ballplayer; he plays hard. Kevin is a fun kid to watch because he enjoys playing the game. He's just one of those kids who plays hard all the time."
In addition to his success on the field, Stenhouse led a number of Seacoast Mavericks to the St. Charles Children's Home, an orphanage serving children ages 3-12 who come from families in crisis.
"Kevin made it a point to immerse himself in the Rochester (N.H.) community," Hall said. "He ran a 5K with his teammates. He attended a benefit golf tournament and served as an instructor at several camps and clinics. And all of that adds up to a real Most Valuable Player."

FBI and State of Kansas Partner in Opening Heart of America RCFL Satellite in Topeka
|FBI Kansas City November 02, 2012
FBI, state of Kansas, and local law enforcement officials today commemorated the opening of the Topeka Satellite Regional Computer Forensics Laboratory (RCFL). The new laboratory, housed at the Kansas Bureau of Investigation (KBI) Headquarters in downtown Topeka, is the first satellite facility affiliated with the Heart of America RCFL (HARCFL) in Kansas City. The HARCFL has been providing expert digital forensics services to law enforcement since 2003.
The Topeka Satellite RCFL is the first-of-its-kind transitional laboratory in the FBI's RCFL program—a national network of FBI-affiliated laboratories devoted to the examination of digital evidence. Built entirely with state funds, the Topeka Satellite RCFL will initially operate under the direction of the HARCFL, a laboratory accredited by the American Society of Crime Laboratory Directors/Laboratory Accreditation Board (ASCLD/LAB). After three to five years of stewardship, the lab will transition to full state control as a KBI laboratory.
The KBI and the Topeka Police Department are detailing staff to the facility, and an experienced examiner from the Shawnee County (Kansas) Sheriff's Department will be detailed from the HARCFL. The FBI provides operational funding, training, equipment, and oversight.
Michael Kaste, special agent in charge of the FBI's Kansas City Division, said, "The ability to build on the success of an established RCFL in Kansas City and to be able to provide those services in a off-site capability affords law enforcement another powerful tool in the fight against crime. As always, the FBI relies on its excellent working relationship with our local, state, and federal law enforcement partners in undertaking this ground breaking initiative."
The Topeka Satellite RCFL will provide pre-seizure consultation; on-site seizure collection; duplication, storage, and preservation of computers and computer-related evidence; prompt, accurate, and impartial forensic examinations of digitally stored media; and courtroom testimony for Kansas law enforcement agencies. The lab will address most types of digital evidence including computers, cell phones, tablets, GPS, and loose media.
With nearly every criminal investigation involving some form of digital evidence, expanding law enforcement's capacity to examine this evidence is vital. "The KBI was created to protect Kansans and to assist local law enforcement in that calling," said KBI Director Kirk Thompson. "This satellite regional computer forensic facility will do precisely that—it will help meet the demand for digital forensic work in investigations across Kansas. We are grateful to the FBI, Attorney General Schmidt, Sheriff Jones (Shawnee County Sheriff's Department), and Chief Miller (Topeka Police Department) for their leadership and collaboration."
Strong partnerships have been key to the success of the RCFL program and the transitional laboratory concept is an innovative way to expand capability. "This new digital forensic capacity will help law enforcement agencies across our state in keeping our communities safe," Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt said. "This first-of-its-kind laboratory demonstrates the commitment and cooperation of our local, state, and federal partners in meeting the growing need for computer forensic analysis. The governor and the Kansas legislature are to be commended for supporting this critical public safety project."
Since 2003, the HARCFL has provided timely, objective digital forensic services to the 867 law enforcement agencies in its service area. Law enforcement participation has doubled since the RCFL opened with 22 participating agencies and 24 full-time examiners currently on board. The HARCFL averages 600 service requests and performs over 900 examinations in a year. It has supported nearly every type of case, from cyber, white-collar, and violent crime to terrorism, and has provided critical examination support to high profile.

Josef Mengele (1911-1979)
Josef Mengele (1911-79) was a doctor at the concentration camp Auschwitz-Birkenau between 1943 and 1945. He was notorious for his medical research on humans. Most subjects died because of his experiments.
Mengele studied anthropology and medicine, and became interested in genetics. His postgraduate studies focused on heredity and the study of racial difference. He joined the German National Socialist Worker's Party (NSDAP or 'Nazi' party) in 1937 and the SS in 1938, quickly being promoted.
In 1943, Mengele replaced a camp doctor at the concentration camp Auschwitz-Birkenau. He was responsible for the selection process of new prisoners, ordering the death of around 40,000 inmates. At Auschwitz, Mengele also began experimenting on twins, Roma children and other inmates. He examined living persons and then killed them by lethal injection to check his findings through postmortem examinations.
Mengele was captured by US troops in 1945. However, he was released because his identity was not known, and he hid until 1949, when he escaped to Argentina. He died in Brazil in 1979, though his death only became known after his remains were dug up and analysed in 1985.

Stevens appears set to stay at Butler
Butler's Brad Stevens has reportedly been the target of UCLA's search for a new men's basketball coach, but indications Friday are that Stevens will remain with the Indianapolis school.
When asked earlier this week by ESPN about his possible interest in the UCLA job, which became vacant when Ben Howland was fired on Sunday, Stevens simply said that he is the coach of Butler. A Twitter statement Friday sure made it sound like he has no interest in heading west to Westwood.
"Love walking thru Hinkle (Fieldhouse) in the morning... Anxious to get started on our spring workouts next week," Stevens wrote.
Stevens has been the head coach at Butler since the 2007-08 season and has guided the Bulldogs to a record of 167-49 with five NCAA Tournament appearances in six years.
Two of those NCAA trips ended with surprising runs to the championship game. The Bulldogs lost both times, falling to Duke in 2010 and Connecticut in 2011.
This year's squad went 28-9 in its first season in the Atlantic 10 after years in the Horizon League. The Bulldogs lost to Marquette in the third round of the NCAA Tournament.
Butler is on the move again, heading to the new Big East next season with the seven Catholic schools who left to form a basketball-centric league that will keep the already well-known name. Xavier and Creighton will also join DePaul, Georgetown, Marquette, Providence, Seton Hall, St. John's and Villanova in the new conference.
UCLA was also reportedly rebuffed by Shaka Smart, who has accepted a new contract to stay at VCU.

Getting Organized: Tackling the Craft Space
For any part time or full fledged crafter, keeping an organized space can be one of the most challenging parts of being creative. Who wants to sit down and unwind with your favorite hobby when the very environment is enough to cause a panic attack? Check out these great home craft spaces for organization inspiration and get ready for creativity to strike again!
Whether you have just a small corner of your home, or a whole room dedicated to your crafting hobbies, you can be organized and productive in your creative endeavors. Here are some tips from the photos above:
- Turn a closet into a crafting haven. Just using some portable storage pieces and utilize shelving to organize your supplies.
- Create stations for each activity. An area for sewing, a space for paper and glue, and even a space for the kiddos to join in.
- Keep supplies in separate and labeled compartments. If it gets too cluttered for your piece of mind, keep everything stored under a table and hide the visual chaos with a pretty piece of fabric or the ol' standby- doors!
- Utilize vertical space! A wall mounted shelving system or pegboard will do wonders for keeping supplies within reaching distance.
- Old typist trays make great organizers for stamps and other small items in your crafting collection.
- Corral paint brushes, pens, and other tall tools with pretty jars and baskets. They will make your space more visually inspiring, and also keep your tools in a handy reachable location.
- Hanging fabric and other large scraps can be more effective to sort through than keeping them piled in baskets or other difficult to navigate spaces.
- Be sure to keep inspiring art and past projects on your walls in in your sight to keep you motivated to create new things.

Equity of access is an imperative in the global information world of the 21st Century. For the information outsider however, or those who might be disenfranchised by social constructions, economic, legal, educational, or political circumstances, or geographical location, information poverty is a disheartening reality (Chatman, 1992; 1996; 2000; Burnett, Bessant, & Chatman, 2001). The functions of this panel are to explore the information worlds of select marginalized populations and the resulting implications for information behavior, social interaction, and pedagogy. It is intended to begin providing a framework for understanding the interactions between information, information access, information needs and uses, legal and social contexts. The presentations and ensuing discussion will offer insight into physical and virtual or digital information access strategies and implications for Library and Information Science (LIS) education and practice.

"It feels good," said Red Storm sophomore JaKarr Sampson, who made five of those 17 shots during an incredible first-half run. "When everything is going your way in the flow of the game, it feels good."
SJU used the net-scorching stretch to pull away early and coast to a 104-58 victory over Fordham in the Holiday Festival. The win improved the Red Storm's record to 6-2 on the season, and 1-0 at Madison Square Garden, where the Johnnies next face No. 4 Syracuse on Sunday, Dec. 15.
It was the first time St. John's scored 100 points in a game in almost 14 years (104-70 vs. Providence in Queens on Feb. 15, 1999). It was the biggest blowout in the 85 games played between the New York City schools, a series that started in 1909.
"This showed how we're capable of playing," Red Storm guard D'Angelo Harrison said. "If this is how we play we're tough to beat. Everybody had a good game today."
Senior Orlando Sanchez put together the breakout performance Red Storm fans were waiting for, as one of 11 Johnnies to score and one of five St. John's players to reach double-figures. The Dominican-born big man was 8-of-10 from the field and 2-of-2 from long-range to amass a career-high 19 points, to go along with eight rebounds and four assists.
"Everybody on the team tells me I have to shoot all the time," said Sanchez, who had a previous career-high of eight points and came into the contest averaging 4.4 points per game. "I shot everything today."
The Red Storm had one of the best shooting runs a team could have. St. John's didn't miss a shot for over 12 minutes in the first half, making 17-straight, firing at a 22-of-28 clip (78.6 percent) for the period and posting a 52-32 halftime lead.
"Looking at the stat sheet, a couple of things stand out. The 29 assists against only nine turnovers indicate we looked for one another and hit the open man," said head coach Steve Lavin. "I thought we were aggressive yet also probed and investigated for the best available shot. In transition, we looked for one another very well."
St. John's takes on the Orange at The Garden on Sunday to continue a century-old rivalry that was threatened when the original Big East dissolved. The Red Storm will visit the Carrier Dome during the 2014-15 season on a date to be determined.
"The Johnnies and Cuse rivalry is now more than a century old and deserves to continue," said Lavin.

The Difference Between Web Designers and Web Developers
If you've ever worked in, on, with, or around the Internet, you've undoubtedly heard the terms "Web Designer" and "Web Developer". Oftentimes, the two phrases are used interchangeably by someone who is not familiar with the industry. Perhaps the concept is irrelevant to a client who just wants to get their website up and running. Or to a server administrator who has his concerns in the silicon, steel and software that power your website. And what about the nice lady over in Human Resources who blotches up the job posting during the hiring process? I mean — designer and developer — they're the same thing, right?
Let's face it, if you have the word "Web" in your euphemism, you've probably been hammered with questions from both sides of the playing field. Designers will hear things like "how can we add a database to the website?", while developers struggle to answer questions about layout, color selection, image placement, and font styles.
This is why many underfunded, poorly planned Web-based projects fail. Most of the blame can usually be attributed to the fact that not a lot of people actually understand what the difference is between a Web Designer and a Web Developer. This includes everything from skill sets to the actual role each position plays in the formation of a Web-based project.
Perhaps the most effective way to differentiate between the two positions is to establish a clear line that separates the roles and responsibilities of each position in the context of a Web-based project. This will, of course, vary from project to project and from person to person, but we can define a reasonable boundary which the average Web Designer and Web Developer will be comfortable with.
What Exactly is a Web Designer?
The best Web Designers are of the creative type. They have a knack for getting inside of their clients' heads and realizing their clients' vision. They take this vision and masterfully convert it into an aesthetically pleasing, artistic design that aims to impress millions of potential viewers. Some designers study typography, user interface design, and usability. Most include tools such as Photoshop, Illustrator, and DreamWeaver in their arsenal and frequent sites such as iStockPhoto, Kuler, and a long list of CSS galleries.
It is common, albeit arguable, that a designer's role should also include slicing images, writing (X)HTML, coding CSS, and drafting or editing copy. For the most part, you can think of a Web Designer as a creative expert.
What Exactly is a Web Developer?
Although Web Developers are sometimes referred to as programmers, their skills usually exceed those of a conventional software developer. Think of a Web Developer as more of a technical expert with programming skills.
What About People That Do Both?
As suggested earlier, it is actually quite common for Web Designers and Web Developers to be expected to take on tasks that are outside of their personal skill sets. In my experience, I would only consider a very small number of people that I've worked with to be proficient in both design and development. In most cases, you'll find a cocky developer that thinks his designs are the greatest thing that ever hit the Internet when, in reality, they're mediocre at best. It's far less common to find a designer who thinks he can code up an entire Web application.
So, Which One Should I Choose?
Which one you choose depends on what exactly you are trying to do, but in many cases your project will require skills from both. If you're looking to start a new website or to redesign your old one, you'll want to look for someone with design talent. If you're looking for some kind of database, E-Commerce solution, or integration with another application, you'll want to look for someone with strong development skills.

Web designers and developers both code on a regular basis. On a team, designers and developers work together, with designers focusing on user experience design and planning and developers focusing on code.
If that still sounds a little vague, check out this handy (and pretty!) infographic and see the exact skills and tools designers and developers use:
Infographic: Web Design or Development
Step 3: Analyze yourself.
Now that you are well informed about the true differences between web design and web development, you need to figure out which one fits YOU. And if you're looking at those descriptions and thinking, "I could do any one of these!" that's okay. These simplified descriptions of the general characteristics of web designers and developers should help:
Web designers tend to experience the world in a visual way. For example, when giving you directions, they might tell you to turn right when you see the big tree.
Web designers also tend to rely on intuition and feeling, since they spend a lot of time developing the look and feel of websites. For example, if you asked them to write a word in the center of a page, they would probably eyeball it.
Web designers love to come up with big ideas and imagine the whole picture. For example, if a web designer were building a theme park, they would love to focus first on the overall "vibe" of the theme park, the layout, and the way a visitor would experience it, before getting into details like the colors, shapes, and names of the rides.
Web developers tend to approach the world from a logical, scientific standpoint. If they were lost, rather than looking for a familiar landmark to guide them, they might look up at the stars or drop a GPS pin.
Web developers also tend to see the world as a vast collection of data that can be used for different purposes. If you asked a web developer to write a word in the center of a page, they would look for a tool to measure it in the quickest, most efficient way, maybe by folding the paper evenly into 4 squares or grabbing a ruler.
Web developers like to handle big projects by taking them one step at a time and paying close attention to the details. If a web developer were building a theme park, she would love working on the details of the physics of the rides and the number of visitors the park could accommodate, and she'd work through them one small step at a time.
And unicorns? Well they're a unique combination of both!

How to Find the Perfect Job for You
And remember, it really doesn't matter how you start learning tech skills, or what path you take. It only matters that you learn tech skills. As soon as you learn those basic skills that both web designers and developers need, like HTML and CSS, you'll be that much closer to uncovering the tech career that will be perfect for you.
When it comes to your future, there's one thing you're sure about: your passion for technology. That's what makes you a great candidate for a career behind a computer screen! But the next step gets a bit tricky.
If you're like many others in your shoes, it's difficult to decide between becoming a web designer versus a web developer.
These two titles look similar at first glance but each has its own distinct responsibilities and deliverables. Knowing the difference between them is critical to making the right career decision.
Put simply, web designers work on the front end of a site, or, the part users can see and interact with. Web developers, on the other hand, work on the back end of a site, writing the code that allows the website to function.
These individuals work hand-in-hand to create beautiful, fully functioning websites, but these jobs require people with very different skillsets. They also require different education and experience levels; and they offer very different opportunities.
Here's a tool to help clear up any misconceptions you may have regarding these commonly confused careers. In the battle of web designer versus web developer—only YOU can decide who wins!
Hiring Guide for a Web Designer

Basic Business website:
A basic business website is developed for start-ups or existing 'Small and Medium Enterprises' (SME's) that want to go online and showcase what their business is about. A basic business website provides all the information about the company and the services and products they offer. A static business which wants to expand its customer base by providing them with relevant information should hire a web designer to build them a basic business website. A website which is to be built in a template format would cost somewhere between 7,000-10,000 rupees and a website which is to be built from scratch and is in a customized format ranges somewhere between 12,000-15,000 rupees.

However, there are certain things that a client needs to work on, for getting clarity of the exact requirements of web designing. This involves creation of a sitemap by the client. A sitemap is like a rough estimate of the pages and links that are to be included in the website. This can be better understood with the reference of a company's website, which includes different pages like- company's profile, products and services offered, contact us page etc. The client can create a brief of company's background including the pictures of company, its products etc. In order to have a better understanding of your preferences and for the website designer to know your taste, creating a list of sites that you like is of utmost importance. Professionalism- Another important factor to be considered while choosing a website designer is his professional attitude. He should be able to stand to his commitments and must deliver the project timely. Delay in work is not a good sign! • Affordability- The cost involved in the process of website designing should be in accordance with the standard and fair prices set for this task. It's a long term investment, so spend wisely! We hope the above information helps you in future projects.

Although both are very different positions which provide entirely different skillsets, the fact of the matter is that most designers and developers have, or will at some point, become factotums — at least to a certain degree. Some may never bother to differentiate themselves as one or the other.
Perhaps the most important aspect of managing a Web-based project is being able to determine what skills a particular project requires, and who is the right person for the job. In this industry it is very clear that, despite a reasonable separation of roles and responsibilities, an individual's job title is not always a reflection of their personal expertise. It is, alas, more often an indication of their position in terms of demand and naivety.

Gourmet Foods Need Visual Sizzle
The packaging recipe for high-end foods and beverages pairs visual sizzle with product protection.
As the foodie movement continues to grow, gourmet and luxury consumables are gaining a strong foothold in the consumer packaged goods arena. And that's creating some packaging challenges.
Packaging for these items must convey the product's quality, support premium pricing and distinguish the product from competitive gourmet offerings. At the same time, the package must protect the product's integrity and shelf life, often without the support of preservatives in the product formulation. And, increasingly, the product and packaging also need to be convenient.
For packaging that is elegant looking but also able to protect delicate flavors and defend against oxidation, glass or metal containers are often the ideal choice. But if the product is not highly sensitive to degradation, a combination paperboard/film package may provide the optimal mixture of beauty, barrier and cost.
Glass conveys class
Many food processors, "especially in the gourmet food or beverage area, feel glass connotes the quality image they are looking for," says Joe Cattaneo, president of the Glass Packaging Institute (www.gpi.org), Alexandria, Va. "They choose glass because it communicates that high-touch, premium-quality feel that goes hand in hand with their product. They also can gain a premium price on certain items."
At the functional level, glass does not interact chemically with products, so purity is assured. Glass also protects product taste by providing a barrier to oxygen and moisture. It is compatible with hot filling, as well, which is important to food processors such as Steel's Gourmet Foods (www.steelsgourmet.com), Bridgeport, Pa.
Steel's processes and packages all-natural fruit spreads, dessert toppings, condiments, syrups, pie fillings and salad dressings using glass exclusively. For products that require hot filling, the company heats to roughly 185°F. The filled, lidded jars pull a vacuum seal as they cool.
"If you hot-pack in glass, that's no problem. You get a good vacuum seal with available lids. But if you pack in plastic, that pull will cause a dimple, even with fairly strong PET (polyethylene terephthalate)," says Betty Jo Steel, president of Steel's. "We tried to go to plastic in half-gallons and had trouble with that happening. And if you don't have your vacuum seal, oxygen can get in and cause spoilage."
Glass also offers aesthetic opportunities, which gourmet and luxury product marketers relish. "The marvelous artistry potential with glass presents all sorts of possibilities," says Tom Marshall, president of Specialty Food America Inc. (www.specialtyfoodamerica.com), Hopkinsville, Ky.
|Would you pay $35 for bottled water? Bling H2O's bottle is decorated with 60 Swarovski crystals.
Bling H2O provides an example of how far the artistry can go. Positioned as the first super-luxury bottled water, Bling H2O is filled into frosted glass bottles that have been hand-decorated with Swarovski crystals.
Saint-Gobain Containers and Vitro Packaging supply the glass bottles. The brand is a product of Bling Beverages LLC (www.blingh2o.com), Beverly Hills, Calif., and the product's primary distribution channel is on-premise venues such as clubs and bars.
Bling H2O is available in 750- and 375-ml bottles, and each size is decorated with 60 crystals. Packaging costs are high, but the product's pricing offsets the expense. The suggested retail price for the large bottle is $35, and for the small bottle, $20. In the marketplace, Bling H2O often sells for substantially more.
"We're selling a premium product, and that demands a premium price tag," says Kevin Boyd, founder of Bling Beverages. "We have premium water in the bottle, and that definitely does reflect in the packaging. The style and shape of the bottle are simple and elegant. The frosted glass bottle and the accent with the crystals, as well our brand name, encapsulate pop culture in a bottle."
On-the-go gourmet
Metal packaging is another option for gourmet food processors. Metal offers an attractive mixture of product protection and decorative potential — and in some cases convenience, as well.
Although the combination of convenience and a gourmet sensibility may seem at odds, demand is quickly growing for gourmet-quality foods that offer portability, ease of preparation and other conveniences.
According to "The U.S. Market for Gourmet Foods and Beverages," a report published by Packaged Facts (www.packagedfacts.com), New York, more than 18 percent of adults try to eat gourmet food whenever they can. Doing so in the context of time-constrained, on-the-go lifestyles forces the issue of convenience. Even the French, with their passion for cuisine, are getting on board with convenient gourmet foods.
High-end French processor William Saurin chose essentially a can that combined a gourmet look with convenience.
For example, William Saurin (www.williamsaurin.net), Lagny-sur-Marne, France, chose a package that doubles as a serving dish to launch its Salades Gourmandes gourmet meat salads. The container is a bowl-shaped steel can with an easy-to-open peelable lid; consumers may eat the meat salad directly from the single-serve bowl.

text: Hello, I installed a rom with a "tether hack", which screwed the firmware of the Antenna of my Droid 3. Right now the phone became completely useless without the antenna, I can't even turn Airplane mode to turn this chip off, and the battery drains in about 3 hours because "it can't find a network". The phone becomes unresponsive whenever I try to change options related with cellular networks, either via Options or via Program Menu (##7764726) and pressing *#06# gives me no IMEI at all. I have tried everything I could, even running RadioComm, but even with RadioComm fails to read many variables related to cellular networks :/, so the phone is screwed badly. By far, the only way the phone seems to accept a reconfiguration is with moto_nv commands (via CW zip install). Is there either a way to fix it or a place where I can send my phone to fix it?

T-A-n-g-o. T-A-n-g-o. Step by step, Armando Aseneta and Melissa Newsted take their students through the moves for the spirited Argentinian dance and another Ballroom Dance Club evening begins.
Aseneta and Newsted bring their Fred Astaire Studios dance skills to Sun City every Friday night the club meets. The beginning dancers as well as some of the more experienced members take advantage of the opportunity to learn and hone these moves.
The tango is just one of the many lessons taught by the professionals. They've also taught the waltz, swing, foxtrot and rumba, among others.
"We teach all different abilities," said Aseneta. They'll teach the basic steps and then add the moves for the forte and the promenade.
For those who want to practice it again or missed it on Friday night, Bob Kelly will reteach Friday's lessons on Saturdays. Kelly is first vice president of the group and his wife, Jan is president.
"For me, I think it's in my blood," said Jan about dancing. "I think I danced in my playpen."
Dance fans don't have to start that early.
"You get hooked on it," said Ed Amundsen. "I started at 33."
Amundsen is often the DJ for dances and he and his wife Adrienne love it.
"We're not professional but we've done it so long and we practice," he said.
That is the sentiment from their fellow dancers who whirl around the floor in the sultry dance.
"It's good socially. It's good friends," said Helen Perry. "You're socializing and dancing. It's just fun for the whole night. And it's good exercise."
And good exercise it is. Sodas and water are available for dancers who work up a thirst.
The first hour goes by fast and the lesson is over. Then the real dancing begins as more members arrive and put on their dancing shoes.
Alina Goglia persuaded Steve Padolik to come to the dance.
"I was very nervous. I'd do it again," said Padolik, "but I'm a rock 'n' roller. I'm more comfortable in a mosh pit."
"I first came two years ago," Goglia said. "It is good exercise. It puts a smile on your face. Keeps you young forever."
A pair who stay young dancing are centenarian Hazel Burger and her escort Fred Zoda.
"I love dancing. I like the music. I have a great love of music," Zoda. "I love doing what I call romantic dancing. We do a lot of cheek-to-cheek."
Join the Ballroom Dance Club Fridays. Lessons are from 6-7 p.m.; dancing is from 7-8:30 p.m. in Pinckney Hall.

Every Thursday I'll pose a question for you to share your experiences and tips. If you have a question that you'd like me to post, I'd love to hear from you!
If you've been couponing for very long, chances are you've come across a tough cashier -- one who acts like you're wasting their time or doing something illegal, who huffs and puffs as they scan your coupons or, worse, says that they can't accept coupons that you know are valid and acceptable under the store's policy. Running into too many of these types of cashiers can make couponing an awful experience instead of an enjoyable one, and more than one couponer has quit because they prefer to avoid confrontation.
So how do you deal with tough cashiers? Do you have tips to spot them and avoid them altogether? What do you do to try to "set the mood" before you check out? How do you handle their bad attitudes or refusal to accept coupons?
Join the discussion -- add your two cents to previous Ask DSM Readers questions too!

I joined this forum because it is the only one--as far as I know--that incorporates conversation but also helps you with your math problems. It seems to welcome beginners like me. In any case, let me now formally introduce myself. My name is Stephanie. I'm 16 and in 11th grade.I like mornings. I like bicycle rides. I have spent most of my lifetime sitting down and daydreaming in desks of all shapes and sizes and doing nothing else. I am curious to find out the highest math I am capable of doing in my lifetime. I would like to pursue math because math is pretty much the basis of everything. If you look deep enough, you will find math in everything and I would love to have that ability. I would love to dwell as deep as possible and always have some thoughts with me that can entertain me.Why do you like math?
Welcome to the forum. I like bikes too, a great way to travel.
I am curious to find out the highest math I am capable of doing in my lifetime.
Yes, but how will you know when you attain that precise point, the pinnacle of understanding?
Why do you like math
Math is like loving someone exotic and far away. Someone that does not even know you exist. It does not get any better than that.
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.
Always satisfy the Prime Directive of getting the right answer above all else.
Hi jellybeans,
Welcome to the forum!
Why do you like math?
Because it is the best form of logic!
It is no good to try to stop knowledge from going forward. Ignorance is never better than knowledge - Enrico Fermi.
Nothing is better than reading and gaining more and more knowledge - Stephen William Hawking.
I do not know why, I just love it.

I am Agnishom. What is your favorite color?

I'm not crazy, my mother had me tested.
hi Stephanie
Welcome to the forum.
Why do I like maths?
It's part of a larger desire to understand things. When I got my first bike (second hand) the first thing I did with it was to take it apart to find out how all the bits worked. My Dad went mad as he thought I'd wasted his money. But I showed him it was not, by putting it all back together, adjusting everything properly, and riding it away! And I like to understand eclipses, why sunflowers have a spiralling seed-head, how computers work, why Pythagoras' theorem is true, ...............................
Morning isn't my favourite time because I don't properly wake up until after 10am. As it's only 8.30 here in the UK, all I have just written may be a load of rubbish. Hhhhm. Does that include the last sentence?
Children are not defined by school ...........The Fonz
You cannot teach a man anything; you can only help him find it within himself..........Galileo Galilei
Welcome to the forum!
You are correct in thinking that this is the only forum which provides mathematical (and scientific) help alongside a social aspect. Many other forums have a separate section for socializing, but even those are heavily moderated (I do not mean that this forum is not secure, it is. It just does not have ridiculous rules).

Michigan playing 1st regional final since Fab Five; Florida Gators have made 3rd in a row
ARLINGTON, Texas – Trey Burke was a 16-month-old toddler the last time Michigan was still playing this late in the NCAA tournament.
That regional final 19 years ago, a loss that ended the Fab Five era, was played in a building that no longer exists.
Where Reunion Arena once stood near downtown Dallas is now a vacant lot about 20 minutes from where the Wolverines finally get another chance to get back to the Final Four.
No. 4 seed Michigan (29-7) plays No. 3 seed Florida (29-7) at Cowboys Stadium on Sunday.
The Wolverines advanced after sophomore Burke scored all 23 of his points after halftime, including a long, -tying 3-pointer that forced overtime in an 87-85 win over South Regional top seed Kansas.
The Gators are in their third consecutive regional final.

Observation Jan 18 and 20 I have to admit that I have been skiing a lot this month and I have not been posting. These observations are from last week and conditions have likely changed.
January 18th Considering the avalanche danger was considerable on Monday and anywhere low was raining, and anywhere up high was windy, Ron and I went to ski Rocky Point starting from Brighton Ski Resort. In the parking lot the wind was blowing so hard that my shoes blew away, looking like a modern tumble weed. While skinning up to Catherines Pass we noted that there about 3 inches of grauple with a strong rain crust underneath. Once at Dog Lake we saw a recent avalanche on the East Face of Mount Millicent. The avalanche crown was about 3-5 inches deep and I would rate the avalanche as class 1 (enough to drag you over a cliff or into a tree). Around the steep banks of each lake was similar activity. Skied the steep Dog Leg Chute on Rocky Point and continued down, skiing the steep Pioneer East face along the way back to the car.....all with no avalanche activity. No depth hoar was found on our outing thanks to a once a winter, January rain storm. Overall avalanche conditions were pockets of Moderate at most and low everywhere else. Had there been 2 to 3 feet of new snow, avalanche conditions would have been Considerable to High.
January 20th Did the Dawn Patrol thing at Alta on Thursday morning and man was getting up there at 6am well worth it. Skinned up Flagstaff in the early moring light with about 10 others (Did I see you up there ED F?). Skied the 3 o clock slide path around 8am first tracks. The 1st couple of turns were icy but then the 8 to 11 inches of soft Utah powder started to move into face shot catagory. At a crossloaded rollover I got a small sluff to run on the ice. While driving back down the canyon I saw extensive sluffing on Superior's south facing Black Knob that appeared to be skier triggered.

"Nice la Belle"
With streets full of colorful buildings, palm-lined boulevards, and a harbor of turquoise blue, you may feel like you've somehow stepped into a living painting when you arrive in Nice. And in fact, the clear air and soft light of the city has inspired some of the artistic greats like Chagall and Matisee—both of whom have museums dedicated to their works here. But no need to pinch yourself, Nice is just that nice.
Often called "the Queen of the Riviera", the epitome of Nice's famous joie de vivre can be found in full swing on the Promenade des Anglais. Hugging the Baie des Anges the promenade features stunning views, especially at sunset.
Don't miss the opulent Hôtel Negresco where royalty and high society have held court since 1912, or the art deco Palais de la Méditerranée. If your feet need a break, hop on one of the numerous Velo Bleu bikes available and enjoy the feeling of the warm sea breeze fluttering through your hair.
Head for the heart of the city to the picturesque Place Rosetti to visit the cathédrale Saine-Réparate and the world-famous Fennochios's ice cream and sorbet shop. After dark, the square becomes an open air-dance club complete with dramatic lighting that casts a magical glow on the ancient cobblestones.
