Take a sneak peek at the new NIST.gov and let us know what you think!
(Please note: some content may not be complete on the beta site.).
While there is a clear need for communication networks supporting reliable information transfer between the various entities in the electric grid, there are many issues related to network performance, suitability, interoperability, and security that need to be resolved. This project will focus on identifying opportunities to tailor communication protocols that have been designed for network traffic control to provide quality of service (QoS) to smart grid applications and to manage power flows in the smart grid between traditional and renewable generation sources and between utility-owned and customer-owned assets. By creating collaborative links between the stakeholders, users, and standard developing organizations (SDOs) working on telecommunications, this project will promote the use and deployment of interoperable communication protocols for smart grid. In addition, the analytical and simulation tools and the published research findings that will be produced by this project will foster the development of new areas of inquiry into smart grid specific communication technologies.
Objective - To accelerate the development of scalable, reliable, secure, and interoperable communications and standards for smart grid applications; and to enable informed decision making by smart grid operators by developing measurement science-based guidelines and tools.
What is the new technical idea? Traditionally, technology decisions have been dictated by offerings of system vendors, while business decisions are regulated by federal, state, and regional regulatory commissions and organizations (e.g. the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, state Public Utility Commissions, and the North American Electric Reliability Corporation). While there are many choices of communications and networking standards, most of these standards were not developed specifically for smart grid applications. The new technical idea is to work directly with the smart grid stakeholders (utilities, regulators and consumers) and the telecommunication industry (vendors, SDOs, service providers) to identify communication requirements for smart grid applications, evaluate and develop communication standards, and develop guidelines and recommendations on their use and deployment. Also, the introduction of new power distribution technologies will transform the electrical network so that it will resemble regional and continental high speed telecommunications networks, although the transported commodity will be electrical power rather than data. This creates an opportunity to apply well-established analysis and optimization techniques from the telecommunications field to aid in the design of future electrical networks.
What is the research plan? Our research plan is focused on understanding and modeling the power grid user and system behaviors and developing control and communication strategies for achieving the smart grid vision of a more efficient and dynamic electric grid. Our research in FY15 comprises two main thrusts:
1) Algorithms to enforce QoS in electrical networks: Microgrid ScenarioSince the electrical distribution network has structural similarities to wired communications networks, several modeling and analysis techniques that have been traditionally used in communications networks, such as routing algorithms, traffic analysis, and call admission control, may be applied for controlling and characterizing the electric grid. In FY14, we examined how storage devices can be positioned to mitigate the effect of network failures. In FY15, are applying techniques developed to guarantee quality of service (QoS) for data traffic flows in communications networks to manage power flows in microgrid networks. This work consists of applying modifications to admission control algorithms to optimize them for use in a microgrid, combined with use of a the co-simulation system platform described below to examine the admission control algorithm performance. As part of the study, we are considering tradeoffs between centralized, distributed, and hybrid approaches. We are using the MATPOWER toolbox in Matlab to study the effect of the grid when additional customer load is requested. To make a good admission decision for load request, it is critical to find the maximum extra load that can be allowed in the grid. We are developing an analysis method, in which we determine the optimal flow through a test network, in this case the IEEE 14-bus, and then successively recompute the optimal flow as the load on the system increases.
Algorithms that enforce QoS in electrical networks will perform two functions: admission control and policing of admitted flows. Historically, power flows traveled from generators (sources) to customers (sinks). The growing use of distributed power generation using renewable resources (e.g. wind and solar) that fluctuate over time, combined with increasing use of renewable sources located at the customer premises, means that there are additional sources of power flows that an operator must contend with. To assess control algorithms that perform admission and policing of flows from operator owned or customer owned sources, we need accurate models of user behavior. Previously, we used realworld data to characterize customer usage patterns. In FY15, are extending this work by developing and examining stochastic models that capture the arrival and departure behavior of power flows in a grid that incorporates intermittent sources, based on electrical generation and consumption statistics. This work leverages network calculus theory to mathematically describe the characteristics of power flows and uses the concept of a "service curve" to model the ability of a network with limited transmission capabilities to transmit power, and to model flow policing functions (e.g. electrical analogues to the leaky bucket function that is used to police traffic flows in packet-switched networks). Properly tuned electrical flow policing will further provide guaranteed levels of performance for electrical distribution networks. I
n FY14, we used GridLABD to simulate failures in power distribution networks, including integrating of distributed energy resources and cascading failures. We developed and tested a co-simulation framework using GRIDLAB-D/NS3/ MATLAB that we used to examine interactions between the electrical generation/distribution network and the communications network. This work leverages the GridMat Toolbox to develop a co-simulation platform that connects GRIDLAB-D to Matlab/Simulink We used the SGIP PAP2-developed use cases as example scenarios, and we documented the results of the performance evaluation in a journal article that has been submitted for review. We modeled element failures that occur in the electrical distribution network, the communications network, as well as correlated failures that affect both networks, and applied protection and restoration strategies to mitigate their effects. In FY15, we are extending this work by examining the behavior of adapted QoS algorithms and the communications network traffic that they generate. We are developing models for the timing of arrivals and departures of power flows in microgrids based on electrical generation and consumption statistics. In FY16, we will use systemlevel simulation models (1) to support SG testbed specific-scenarios more specifically to help plan experiments to be conducted on the testbed and validate results obtained from testbed experiments, (2) investigate the use of shared communication network resources to support SG-specific applications.
2) Improvements to the smart grid communications network: Wide Area Measurement Systems ScenarioSmart grid traffic is structurally different from Internet traffic, as revealed by the use cases developed for PAP 2. The delay and loss requirements for smart grid applications vary widely; some are very tolerant of long delays or lost information (metering), while others demand near instantaneous data delivery with virtually no loss (wide area measurement systems). Also, the amount of data exchanged can grow very large as in the case of wide area measurement systems. As these systems scale up to a large number of Phasor Measurement Units (PMU), the centralized superPhasor Data Collector (PDC) architecture becomes untenable.
In FY15 we continued our efforts to expand the testbed by implementing a hierarchical synchrophasor network. In addition, a novel scheme that would considerably reduce the bandwidth needed to transmit aggregated data at each PDC level has been designed. In FY16, we plan to expand the synchrophasor testbed to include Distributed Generation (DG) grid systems and examine developing a multihop wireless mesh routing protocol suitable for radial and loop feeders. As a new milestone, additional efforts will be dedicated to developing a visualization framework for an interactive real-time display of the measured phase, frequency, voltage, current, and power factor, as well as displaying packet exchanges at the application, network, and physical layers. Furthermore, to overcome the current limitations of the Emulab system (where virtual nodes can only be created on a single host computer), we envision a rather ambitious plan to expand the operational capabilities of the testbed under more realistic environments. If funded, this new intuitive can lead to the development of a flexible Software Defined Testbed where nodes can be dispersed throughout a NIST-wide network. This would enable PMU's and PDC's to be located at different test sites. Such a testbed would allow us to put theory into practice towards fast deployment of novel techniques, as well as testing and verifying various communication protocols and standards.
ITL will continue to lead and contribute to the activities of the SGIP related to wireless and powerline communications. In addition ITL staff will continue to participate in international standard activities (ITU, IEEE 802 and IETF) related to smart grid communications.

While processing a $2,100 e-ticket through Expedia, a company that had served me well up until that point, an error message came up indicating that the itinerary/ticket had not been booked or paid for, and could I please input the information again?
I proceeded first to check that that was indeed the case, and sure enough, no ticket had been booked or paid for according to Expedia. I processed the information again, paid using my wife's credit card, and was sent a proper itinerary to my email address.
A week later, my wife checked her credit card statement online and saw that she was double charged for the same ticket by American Airlines. I called up Expedia first, who avoided all responsibility and then proceeded to direct us to American Airlines. I called them up, and they passed the buck to Expedia.
I then called Expedia back again, and after 45 minutes on the phone, a call center employee (I have this call recorded) explains that even though the problem was with the Expedia website, American Airlines is responsible for double charging the credit card, but that Expedia got in touch with AA and a refund was being processed as we spoke. We were told to expect the refund within 2 to 3 billing cycles.
A month after that intitial call, I did receive an email from an AA employee named Essie Waqairawai, asking for more information regarding the refund. This email was sent to my spam folder, and I didn't notice it until months later--mind you, I had no reason to check for this email if I was told the refund was being processed, which I was.
Every couple of weeks, I checked the AA website, and the refund status never changed from the initial status: "refund request submitted". As I type this, I'm trying again and now the website says it's "connecting", but it still hasn't.
That was in May of 2012. It's now February of 2013 and we've still not received proper word, even though I have since responded to Essie Waqairawai and given her all the information needed to process the refund.
At this point, if Expedia or AA had any kind of self-respect as companies, one of them would have apologized profusely and refunded the money as fast as they snatched it from my wife's credit card. Instead, they've essentially pocketed the money and forgotten about customer service completely.
I have no idea what kind of legal recourse I can take with this, being as that neither my wife nor I are American citizens, nor do we live in the U.S. where we could attend a small claims court or see people in person. But it's shameful to have to chase down money that belongs to you, when the companies in question should be refunding customers posthaste in addition to offering some kind of gratuity.

At first, I thought it was a joke. Then he went on to explain who he was (Cavalry Portfolio Services)and that I owed them over $500 for an unpaid bill. I told him that this debt had been paid off for quite some time now. He said there is no record of any kind of payment on that account. I faxed him a copy of the processed check and that was the end of it, or so I thought.
Almost five years had past when all of sudden I began to receive phone calls and letters telling me to pay this debt now, or suffer the consequences. They really don't make it easy to get a hold of them and when the credit bureaus investigate; they seem to side with the swindlers.
So finally, after months of waiting, I received a letter from them stating they understand that I had the credit bureaus investigate their claims of debt. They said that they were willing to dismiss the debt if I was to provide for them, on a written letterhead from the original debtor, that the debt was paid in full. For those that don't know, GreenTree and Conseco Financial does not exsist anymore. They are owned by someone else now. I'm not sure who. So I as I try to find out how to get this taken care of. The fees keep racking up. Where somewhere around the 700 mark.

#1 Consumer Suggestion
It's not your responsibility
AUTHOR: Dave - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Friday, May 12, 2006POSTED: Friday, May 12, 2006
Immediately send a letter to Calvary via certified mail return receipt telling them that you dispute the debt in its entirety. Demand that they send you validation of the debt via postal mail. Also make sure that you demand the removal of any reference to this account from your credit reports if they are unable to obtain the validation (this one is particularly important). They have 30 days to respond to you.
Then about 10 days later, send a letter of dispute to each credit bureau that the account is listed with.
Calvary will do one of three things: 1) ignore you completely and post/re-validate a negative account on your credit report, or 2) they attempt to send you bogus documentation to try and prove the debt is valid and then post/re-verify a negative account on your credit report.
If #1 happens, send another letter stating that you are still awaiting validation and repeat your demand for immediate deletion of the account from your credit reports. They'll probably ignore you again, but at this point you can prove willful noncompliance of the TDCPA and the FCRA. Take all of your paperwork to an attorney who specializes in debt collection law...can be found on the NACA website.
If #2 happens, immediately send them another letter rejecting their bogus documentation. Tell them that the account is still disputed and to remove their tradeline from your credit reports. Sue if they don't respond to your demands.
Read up on the FDCPA and the FCRA.
I'm advising you to use one of the best protections: you can dispute a debt at any time - they have 30 days to respond either with validation, or a request for more time. If they fail to validate within 30 days or request more time, they must change the account that appears on your credit report per your request (hence my suggestion that you demand deletion) until they are able to send you the validation.
Keep copies of all correspondence, envelopes, return reciepts, etc. for evidence. Don't be afraid to get nasty with them if they don't make this go away soon!!
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

The Tea Baggers cost the Republicans the presidential election and great losses in the Senate and Congress. I am enjoying the spectacle of their drowning in a cesspool of lying filth.
The decline of the Tea Baggers is welcomed by the vast majority of educated and informed voters, i.e., Democrats.
Tea Baggers drowning in their own waste. A fitting end for them. They are all so full of s*h*i*t* .
Talk to me after the money runs out. We'll see!
Mexico: $2.03
•Mississippi: $2.02
•Alaska: $1.84

Why are all those supported red states complaining ? Time to cut the dead weight .
Sentiment: Buy
Hmmmm. I guess you did not like the Tea Baggers who want you to earn your way huh? I guess you are one of the deadbeats who want more taxes to support your addiction to free stuff. We know your type!
I see you bought the myth of O'Reilly, Rush, Hannity, and the rest of the mindless fringe right fanatics that do nothing but echo each other like mindless parrots.
I love to watch fools like you suffer like a stooge.

Jacques loses bid to limit testimonyJanuary 07,2013Staff Report
WASHINGTON, D.C. — The U.S. Supreme Court said Monday it will not review a decision by the 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals in the case against Michael Jacques, who is accused of sexually assaulting and killing his 12-year-old niece in 2008.
The appeals court had said a jury could hear about allegations that Jacques schemed to shift blame for the killing onto a fictitious sex ring. His lawyers asked the high court to reverse that decision.
If convicted, Jacques faces the death penalty for abducting and killing Brooke Bennett. His trial is tentatively set for September.MORE IN This Just InCASTLETON - Head coach Eric Ramey has announced that the Castleton softball team will once again...

Definition of pantoum in English:
(also pantun)
A Malay verse form, imitated in French and English, consisting of quotations with an abab rhyme scheme linked by repeated lines.
Example sentences
- His poetry is characterized by its openness to the vagaries of consciousness, its wry, beguiling lyricism, and its innovative use of forms such as the pantoum and the sestina.
- Fascinated throughout his career by venerable poetic fixed forms such as the sonnet, the triolet, and the Malayan pantoum, Jouet chose to invent a new fixed form.
- Their fourth exercise/poem was their choice of a form using repetition or refrain: a villanelle, rondeaux, traditional ghazal, glosa, sestina or pantoum.
Late 18th century: Malay pantun.

The Grand Junction Fire Department is calling a motor home a total loss after fire tore through it Tuesday afternoon.
Firefighters were called out to a vacant lot off of Highway 6 & 50 just after 2:00pm on reports that a motor home was engulfed in flames and black smoke.
Officials say crews were able to extinguish the blaze quickly after arriving, but not before "significant" damage was done.
Damage to the motor home is estimated at $5,000. Officials say a car next to it was also damaged, but the extent is unknown at this time.
Officials say the cause of the fire is still under investigation.
No one was in the motor home at the time and no one was injured.

I have used Priceline.com for years to book travel. Yesterday, I booked a hotel and overpaid $130 - I then found out the hotel only charges $90. What I learned from this is that Priceline puts higher prices on their website to make it appear as discounted.I spe
Last night when I arrived at the hotel, I COULD NOT CHECK IN. I called Priceline and spent the next HOUR ON THE PHONE WITH THEM. They told the hotel that my reservation was good but the hotel had put the amount on the wrong merchant account - AND PRICELINE WOULD NOT PAY THEM THE MONEY I ALREADY PAID!!!
I booked this through Priceline - the hotel didn't have to do anything.
After being transferred around by what PRiceline calls their "customer service department" (hahaha, good one. they don't even speak good English so they didn't know what the hell I was saying). WHEN I LITERALLY STARTING SCREAMING AT MARY FROM PRICELINE.COM IS WHEN THEY FINALLY TOOK CARE OF BUSINESS.
I called Jeff Boyd the CEO of Priceline.com today in CT and got his voice mail. I left him a message to call me back but he didn't, but I'm not shocked by this.

You know I did re-read the report.
Where they made a mistake(and it may have not even been their fault), and "took care of business". You AFTER that anonymously blast them on the Internet, call the CEO and are trying to get a "Class Action Lawsuit"(ha..ha..ha) going.
If you think your actions are the "right thing" then I stand by what I stated.
By the way I am still waiting for the "public notice" of this Class Action Lawsuit.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

SUBMITTED: Wednesday, July 30, 2014POSTED: Wednesday, July 30, 2014
Seriosuly, I would hate to see how you treat your spouse if they forgot to bring home the milk one night.
After all you have used Priceline for years to book travel and presumably without issue or based on this one incident you wouldn't have been back. Yet when they make a mistake you call the CEO and are looking to file a Class Action Lawsuit? Oh and you do that AFTER they "take care of business"(or in normal speak...they fixed the problem and got you either the room or your money back).
So exactly what are you going to file a Class Action Lawsuit on? That their Customer Service Reps don't speak english "good"? That you had to scream to get something done? That the CEO didn't call you back? Really...good luck in that.
Oh and as for the price, while you did not give the details. I have a feeling you are not telling the entire story on that one either. Perhaps you saw the hotel's cost to Priceline(which is going to be a much lower wholesale rate you CAN NOT get). So yes, the hotel charges $90, you pay $130 and Priceline makes the $40 for booking the room. By the way in talking about the Hotel, if it was in fact the Hotel that made the mistake and used the wrong merchant account..how exactly is Priceline at fault?
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

In picture this material is showing very gorgeous but when actually this dress is very ordinary
This product is too good... I would like to buy a another peace of different pattern of same brand... thanks snapdeal for having good product...

Reload the page and try again.
The athletics overall are mediocre, but the Equestrian Program is amazing.
There are computer labs in all the dorms and academic buildings. There are also several computer rooms in the Library. You get enough printing money each semester to cover almost all printing, and you can also use the dorm printers if you have your own paper. Sometimes the dorm printers are jammed, but if you call, they'll come fix them very quickly. There's wireless everywhere, but sometimes it's slow. No worse than most other colleges though.
We have just about every possibility in women. There's a large international population which actively participates in sharing cultural events. There are women who's families are wealthy enough to pay full tuition (50,000 a year) and women who pay nothing. Our religious house is active and interfaith, and the queer community is outspoken but not overly aggressive.
Most of the bus routes are free to students at the college, which is nice. The bus can be inconvenient though, because some routes don't run very often and it can take a longer to get somewhere.
Off-Campus Housing:
Because our college is residential, you have to be approved to be able to live off campus. Otherwise it's not bad, because housing is pretty affordable. It does get cold though, so it'd be best to have a car to get to and from campus.
Campus Quality:
MHC is a small school, but we have everything you need.
Off-Campus Housing:
I Honestly Don't Know – I don't have alot of experience with the off campus housing. I know it is a little bit of a walk to campus and they are alittle creepy because they are really old but thats all I can say
Campus Food:
It Gets Tiring After a While – This school has many dining halls and each one has different food so you get a variety, but it gets nasty after a while. The food is bland and they have the same type of food alot. They cater more to vegetarians and vegans, which is good for people who eat super healthy. Late night dining is the not the best. Only one this is open til 12 that you don't need a car or a bus to get to.
Generally Open and Nice Environment – They are generally always open except during finals and midterms. During those times, you won't find any available computer or a space to study in the library.I suggest you have your own. They also have multiple types of computers, so you can pick your preference which is nice.
Greatly Improved – Honestly, this is one of the most expensive colleges in the country. Even though my financial aid packet covered half my tuition, it still isn't enough. And they DON'T change your financial aid as the years go by. I know multiple people, including myself, whose income has gone down due to multiple problems. No matter how many times you call or go down to the office to talk to them, they do not care. They keep pushing for you to take the semester off and get a job to save money, which honestly is not a option for many of us. If you are an international student, you have a better chance at getting more money because they pride themselves on having a "diversity of students" and "international community". Domestic students-we are left out of the financial aid decisions.
Local Area:
Hopefully You Enjoy Being Surrounded by Women – The nightlife at Mount Holyoke is non existent. When students are looking for co-ed fun, and a more relaxed environment, they leave campus on the free bus to the other surrounding colleges.
The campus facilities and academics are great. Classes are small and participation is encouraged.
The quality of academics make up for the fact that the school is all girls. Still some would like more of a balance between fun and books for the heavy tuition price tag.
Campus Food:
Ok but Limited – The food in the dining halls is good, however there are no convenient options for eating off campus or satisfying late night cravings. Most students order delivery from Amherst, although that is not always available because of the isolated location of the campus.
The heavy workload and rigorous courses at Mount Holyoke will absolutely prepare you to succeed wherever you go during and after college. Employers will know that you are getting a competitive and well-earned degree with the Mount Holyoke name, and you will emerge a strong thinker, writer, and communicator with sure skill sets. The sciences are for sure the strongest. Recently MHC had the most professors of all schools on the Princeton Review list of 300 best professors in the nation.
Health & Safety:
I've never felt unsafe on campus, and there are some pretty sketchy neighborhoods nearby too. There are blue light phones across campus and Campus Police presence is certainly felt. I'm not afraid to walk back across campus to my dorm from the library at 2 in the morning.
Guys & Girls:
We Are NOT Unattractive – While not everyone may be considered "hot", with so much diversity, it's not surprising that there are a variety of beautiful girls at Mount Holyoke.
Campus Food:
Lots of Variety – With around 6-7 dining halls in the campus, there is a lot of variety food wise. Prospect, Wilder and Blanchard are the favorite dining halls. Menus can seem repetitive sometimes but they do region themed dining sometimes like Chines Food, Italian Food, etc which I really like. Meal plan is your best bet since there aren't lot of restaurants nearby.
PVTA Buses Are Great! PVTA buses that run in the five college are free and they run very regularly. Public Transportation is best way to travel around the pioneer valley and it is cheap. Peterpan bus lines and Megabus would be best for going to Boston, NYC or Washington DC.
Each dorm has its own computer room and free printing. There are lots of computers in library and academic buildings. So not having your own laptop wont be such a huge problem.Printing is not free in the library but you get printing money in your one card during the start of each semester and it usually sufficient. Wifi is pretty reliable except for few parts of the campus. You can go to library technology office if you have any problems with your Mac/PC.
Overall Experience:
It's a Great Campus!! Mount Holyoke is a beautiful campus. South Hadley is a sleepy town but you can always head to North Hampton, Amherst, Boston and New York if you are feeling the blues. If you are a party person, this is not the college for you. But if you like studying in a tight knit community with a lot of diversity among the student body, lots of traditions, beautiful campus, AWESOME professors then this is definitely the college for you.
So Many Students from Different Places – We dont have guys, but we do have a lot of women from different countries, religion, sexual orientation, race and ethnic background. It is a very diverse campus. Students are respectful of others background and cultural life style. Students from the USA are encouraged to learn about the international students cultural background. My first roommate was from Pakistan, and i learned a lot about her religion and traditions. it was a interesting experience.
Off-Campus Housing:
South Hadley Area in Expensive – I have never lived off campus but i have heard from several students that renting a home in the South Hadley area is a bit expensive. I would prefer living in the school dorms because it is the easiest way to meet friends and be closer to class.
Overall Experience:
Resort Living With Everyday Challenges to Your Cranium – I enjoyed my 3 years here as the campus was beautiful, you can be as active or studious as you want with other colleges close by if you ever needed a mental break or distraction. The honor system on campus made the campus feel like home because i never felt the need or worry to lock my door or think my computer may randomly go missing, or bike, or any other object of value for that matter. Cultural houses were a home away from home and the car borrowing system really made this campus convenient.
Campus Housing:
Old Beauty, Beauty, Everywhere – MHC has been rated as having one of the most beautiful campuses...and it does! I was lucky enough to live in the best dorm, Pearsons, my first two years. The historic beauty gives firsties an idyllic, Hogwarts feel. In contrast, some of the others were a bit drab, but the rest of the campus makes up for it. However, due to its quaint nature, facilities are not as up-to-date (unless you are in the brand new, eco-friendly dorm that was built right after I left). For example, to do laundry, you usually have to go down to a creepy basement that used to be servants quarters in olden times. Milk & Cookies were a long standing tradition from ages ago where students would come down to the dorm kitchens to get a study snack. These and other traditions in the dorms make for bonding with other firsties, and friends at MHC tend to stick.

Sorry, there are no reviews.
It seems that students come to Mount Holyoke for the academics and stay for the community. Women who come here either quickly discover that they hate it and transfer out, or fall in love with the school and become unable to imagine going anywhere else. The overall sense students have about the College is that it's more than just a school, and it's more than a place to study for four years, get your diploma, and be set free—MHC becomes a second home. Its close-knit environment allows students to explore their own boundaries in safety, perhaps try on a few lifestyle changes, and maybe even find a few that stick. You will undoubtedly be exposed to new influences during your time here, as you would at almost any college, but here, you won't be afraid to call some of those new influences your friends—especially the ones who scared you at first.
Part of what's so wonderful and unique about this school is the sense that students are really cared about as individuals. Sure, it's an institution, and sure, there are the occasional oversights where the Registrar forgets to record a grade or some such thing, but most faculty and staff are exceedingly helpful and willing to assist you with whatever difficulty you may be facing, whether it's a decision to apply to grad school now or later or a mistake in your transcript. The atmosphere of care is contagious—new students quickly catch it from older students, and so the tradition lives on. Things are changing for this institution, as it strives to keep up with modern times and struggles with budget cuts resulting from a bad economy, but it still remains the school generations of women have known and loved, and alumnae still keep coming back to visit and reminisce.

Machala, who held the position since July 2010, will remain a major shareholder in the npower League Two club as well as a director, juggling those responsibilities with his other business interests.
Azeem takes over having spent two years on the board as non-executive director.
His priority will be to lead Aldershot through their continued period of financial restructure, including the attraction of new investment needed to further the strategic aims of the Hampshire club.
An official statement from Aldershot read: "On behalf of all the directors, staff and supporters we take this opportunity to formally thank Kris for his dedication and commitment during his tenure as owner and chairman.
"We formally welcome Shahid to the role of chairman and have every faith that with everyone supporting him he will lead the club through a difficult but improving position."

Susie Essman, Richard Lewis are a hit and a miss
In the eyes of any talent booker, Richard Lewis and Susie Essman would seem like a totally compatible pairing for a comedy bill. Both standups regularly appear on Larry David's HBO hit comedy "Curb Your Enthusiasm." They're the same generation (Lewis is 65, Essman 57), and their takes on their Jewish backgrounds, aging and sexuality aren't too dissimilar.
And so Lewis and Essman were brought in as co-headliners for the second annual Laugh It Up Milwaukee benefit Saturday, presented by the Bayshore Community Foundation and hosted at the Harry & Rose Samson Family Jewish Community Center in Whitefish Bay. »Read Full Article(6)

The concept of strategic voting is widely used by political parties and the media since the beginning of the campaign. It is assumed that it is a widespread behaviour because Canada has a "winner-takes-all" electoral system. There are two very simple conditions for a vote to be qualified as strategic: first, a voter must not vote for her preferred party, and second, behave this way in order to block a worse option. As we shall see, this straightforward definition has enormous consequences when it comes to quantifying strategic voting.
Beyond the gates of the Stampede grounds, however, the mood was less affable. Hundreds braved a snow storm and icy temperatures to show their dissatisfaction with this convention and government's agenda more broadly. The gathering was part of a three-day conference advocating for democracy, the environment, Aboriginal Treaty rights, and human rights.
Ford used his party time on the Danforth to seek the spotlight while posing for countless pictures. He knew all eyes were on him because he was smiling for the attention. He knows the cloud of suspicion that surrounds him is darkening the city's reputation and causing dysfunction within city council. He honestly doesn't even seem to care.
Stephen Harper has stayed true to his word, maintaining his stand that the issue of abortion will not be reopened in Canada so long as he is Prime Minister. That being the case, how did we reach the point where the blame for Motion 312 and it's implications on the reproductive rights of women in this country are perceived to be solely with Stephen Harper and the CPC?

Skip to comments.Obama: Court Striking Down Obamacare Would Be Judicial Activism
Posted on 04/02/2012 6:41:51 PM PDT by Still Thinking
President Obama preemptively slammed the Supreme Court as a bunch of "unelected group of people" who will have turned to "judicial activism or a lack of judicial restraint" if they decide to strike down his signature legislative achievement, the healthcare reform act.
Obama was speaking at a trilateral event with the Prime Minister of Canada and President of Mexico.
Obama touted the Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare, as "a law that was passed by a strong majority of a democratically-elected Congress."
(Excerpt) Read more at realclearpolitics.com ...
2) "...strong majority of a democratically-elected Congress"??? I thought it was "deemed" passed? Seriously, they had to pull every procedural trick they could think of, break equal protection, buy off wobblers with special treatment, and lie about how it was goind to be implemented (Catholic contraception) just to barely squeeze it through. So, "legislative cheating for me but no judicial integrity for thee" is the rule, then?
I'm SO tired of these liberal presidents and their mind games, and their word games, and their DAMN subterfuge when it comes to anything to do the US Constitution and the set up of our government.
Either LEAD like an AMERICAN president or get the HEL* out of this country!!! Freaking marxist — go find some other country to rule over!!
Suddenly liberals are opposed to judicial activism...
I am glad to hear him saying this - it reinforces my guess that the straw vote yesterday was pretty bad for Obamacare, and the Wise Latina has already leaked the results to him. I think he is going to be very disappointed with the results of running against the Supreme Court.
I know, right? I don't know, maybe he meant it as a compliment.
So, using this asshat's very fuzzy logic, when the Supremes ruled that Slavery was unconstitutional, that was judicial activism.
I can't wait to see this jackass's college and highschool grades.
I have a feeling obamma knows obammacare is history and this is why he is vocal about it.
He may be trying to change one vote before the official ruling comes out? After the ruling it will too late for him to do anything about it.
Our pResident is a DICTATOR! This is unprecedented! First he lies about them in a State of the Union address and now he flat A$$ calls them out. Congress. get off of your dead behinds and out of the fetal position. We are going over the edge into a totalitarian dictatorship.
That's WIDE Latina to you, buddy! BTW, what do you have to do to get to be the Mayor of Sodom? Wait...I don't think I want to know...
President Obama is a bald-faced liar.
Everything from 0 and his lackeys is a lie and nothing is as it seems. You'd think more than half the people in this country would catch on.
Hell, no one read it before it was "passed".Scalia got his dig in on that account.
Obama had his little nationalist socialist executive team draft Obamacare and rammed it down the throats of the Democrat caucuses in the House and Senate, while locking ALL Republicans out of the Committee Rooms. Hell they even changed the locks on the doors so no Republican could enter.
Hardly what anyone would call a "democratic" process.I am thinking that more than one Supreme Court justice has taken judicial notice of how that undemocratic process played out.
He's "setting the table." He's going instruct the Executive Branch to defy the court. He's going to precipitate a constitutional crisis by ignoring the Court. He expects there to be widespread civil unrest in our country this summer, and he thinks that he can get away with such a course of action under those circumstances.
All your "czars" are unelected too, fuzznuts.
But, but, but aren't we 'citizens of the world' too? /s
I can think of so many adjectives that describe Obama and his agenda. This obvious attempt to intimidate the SCOTUS is just another sign of his intent and his hypocrisy. The horrid excuse of a justice he put on the court is a text book classic example of judicial activism, yet he accuses the court of committing the same thing if they UPHOLD THE CONSTITUTION.
Everything this so-called president has done to America and its people is viewed and felt with total disgust and contempt by the vast majority of the American public.
Let us pray that shows in the November election results.
Judicial review is something like Griswold v, Ct. Creating a right out of whole cloth because it is something you want. Overturning a law because it has the Congress or POTUS going beyond their constitutional power is why the Court exists.

Geeminney, isn't that the truth!
Unfortunately, since the entire foundation of our government, its Constitution and its Court was formed by a good and Christian people, what of it has a hope to survive in the long term, among a dimminishing Christian people overtaken by athiests and non-Christian.
Until that is corrected.............
it reinforces my guess that the straw vote yesterday was pretty bad for Obamacare...
I was thinking along those lines before he attacked the Supreme Court. Obama would have an advantage if he was tipped off to the outcome of the Supreme Court Vote.
His appointees are more than likely "the end justifies the means types", so leaking the results to Obama would be expected. It would give Obama a heads up on how to run his campaign on this issue. - tom
My guess would be Kagan.
The President lies all the time. I guess he figures he can get away with it.
And he called Clarence Thomas a weak judicial mind. He knows it is toast and is freaking out.
Pray for America
Sorry to disappoint you Barry. Kagan and Sotomayor sitting on the Supreme Court IS JUDICIAL ACTIVISM!
Now that is a very interesting thought.
I would not have thought a Justice would leak the preliminary results.
But in this case, you may be correct.
Because his comments - "Judicial activism", "No precedent"
, etc - are insane.
I have said it before and I will say it again, of the two, Urkel makes Joe Biden look like Albert Einstein. This has got to be one of the stupidest people ever elected. First he singles out and blames the Supreme Court in a State of the Union address and now this. This idiot needs a teleprompter to remember to wipe when he goes to the bathroom.
" Congress. get off of your dead behinds and out of the fetal position. We are going over the edge into a totalitarian dictatorship."
Congress? They are COWARDS, and hiding in a cave...they only
care about themselves, and hopefully, getting elected again.....and again...
As we say in the financial world...
From Wiki:
On December 23, the Senate voted 6039 to end debate on the bill, eliminating the possibility of a filibuster by opponents. The bill then passed by a party-line vote of 6039 on December 24, 2009, with one senator (Jim Bunning) not voting.He thinks that's a strong majority? He's on track to tick off the Supreme Court more than Clinton, who was disbarred (not that the press ever mentions it).
The House passed the bill with a vote of 219 to 212 on March 21, 2010, with 34 Democrats and all 178 Republicans voting against it.
EVERY politician that voted for this should be shamed, shunned and dragged by the collar from office like the dogs that they are. How dare you vote to steal my treasure and freedom?
Ummm... How many unelected Czars are there in this administration? Yeah, right!
What a weenie.
He has defied other court rulings and orders the whole time he has been president. If he does as you say, Congress better get ready to impeach and carry him off in his straight jacket along with his crazy wife. Can he ignore the court? I can't imagine anyone going along with him.
I think you've read it exactly right. Do you have any sources inside Washington, or is this simply deductive reasoning? If the latter, well done.
Very astute observation - I'll bet the wise latina did leak it ...
"The President lies all the time."
No, not really - sometimes he tells the flat-out truth.
"Under my administration, energy prices will neccissarily skyrocket."
"We are going to redistribute the wealth."
I think Bambi is hoping for a reset on this. It will take one of the huge issues off the table in June and give five months to destroy Willard.

No Republican voted for the bill.
O'bummer did say he would work around Congress to implement his agenda. The Supreme Court is a bigger road block.
He is ripe for impeachment.
I don't think it would hurt Congressional elections, Congress already has a popularity poll below 10% anyway.
That this President threw out such an arrogant straw man argument and intimidation tactic prior to the Court's ruling is reprehensible, especially since he did it while standing between the leaders of two foreign nations.
The rapist Bill Clinton could not be removed from office and neither will Obama, no matter how guilty he is.
Obama has ignored Congress as he has ignored a court order with impunity. Impeachment proceedings will start race riots throughout the country, the REPUBS will not go after the traitor in the White House.
You sound like Dagny Taggart or John Galt. Bad factoryrat, bad! (JK)
Obama could walk naked in to the well of the senate, and rape the nearest page, be it a boy or girl - and he would not get impeached.
FReepmail me to subscribe to or unsubscribe from the SCOTUS ping list.
Since when does a president lobby the SCOTIS. They are independent branches. I hope they send his letter back saying that they will not consider it.
Actually not unprecedented. Good old FDR issued a similar worded warning to the Supreme Court with his Social Security program.
I can recall when a liberal federal judge struck down Prop. 187 in California, a ballot initiative in which would have denied all kinds of freebies to illegal aliens in the Golden State.
Millions of California voters were dis-enfranchised by one moonbat "judge," and not one liberal politician said boo.
