text: Table of Physiological Colors Both Mixt and Simple by Richard Waller, 1686 – a predecessor to Goethe's famous color wheel from Theory of Colours. Waller's table provided a cross-reference for colors one might find in nature. If a shade didn't match exactly, he proposed, it was a simple matter of locating where on the table's color-continuum that shade might fall.

I hope and pray you have heard of this news story.
Dharun Ravi, in case you haven't heard of it, set up a webcam to record his gay roommate's sexual activity with a boyfriend and broadcasted them to his friends on Twitter as a prank and a joke. The roommate, Tyler Clementi, committed suicide by jumping off the George Washington Bridge days later.
After a media storm, Dharun Ravi was prosecuted and sentenced to 30 days in jail and 300 hours of community service, as well as three years of probation.
What. The. Fuck.
This bastard should have been convicted of committing a hate crime if not manslaughter. Whatmore, his total lack of remorse and apology has been noted by various members in the trial.
Tyler Clementi's brother, James:
I watched as Dharun slept through court as though it was something not worth staying awake for. I listened while Dharun and his defense attorneys laughed together as though it was a private joke in the courtroom that I and my family were not aware of.
The judge, Glenn Berman:
I heard this jury say guilty 288 times, 24 questions, 12 jurors, that's the multiplication, and I haven't heard you apologize once.
And Frank Bruni, in his New York Times article, summing up Ravi's lack of remorse and what the case had boiled down to - the defense focusing on the awful criticism Ravi had to face for the last few months and insisting that it was enough punishment for causing another human being's death:
There was so much talk around him—from his lawyer, from his parents—about the hell that Ravi himself had been through. The indignities he had suffered. Is that where his own thoughts dwell? On the (admittedly) profound ways in which his own life has been stalled and complicated rather than his unacceptably callous treatment of a roommate who didn't warrant it?
I'm haunted by Ravi's father's last-minute plea to the judge. To my ears it didn't emphasize the wrong that Ravi had done. It emphasized Ravi as victim: of a rush to judgment, of a presumptuous news media, and of a degree of derision from society that, in this man's eyes, went beyond anything his son deserved. It was an odd tack to take. Perhaps a telling one, too. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
Finally, yesterday, we saw Ravi cry—for his mother, whose pain at the thought of her son's compromised future was writ in her convulsive sobs as she delivered her own last-minute plea to the judge. His tears in that instance seemed to be for his own family, not for Clementi's. And not for Clementi, whose manner of death suggests a magnitude of emotional turmoil that's heartbreaking to contemplate, whether you are or aren't a component of it, whether you do or don't see yourself as an agent of it.
Here's what James Clementi told the judge about the brother he lost: "I cannot imagine the level of rejection, isolation and disdain he must have felt from his peers. Dharun never bothered to care about the harm he was doing to my brother's heart and mind. My family has never heard an apology, an acknowledgement of any wrongdoing."
Did that reflect some sort of legal strategy on Ravi's part? Well, the verdict has been handed down. The sentence has been decreed. The strategizing can end. And a sorry of proper amplitude can be said.
If, indeed, Ravi has it in him.

Google Releases New Image Fomat
WebP format could replace JPEG.
Google, in an effort to increase overall speed of the entire Internet, has developed a new image format called WebP.
Based on the VP8 codec, which Google open sourced in May, WebP is a lossy image format that offers an average of 39% reduction in size opposed to JPEG. Google also adapted a lighweight container based on RIFF, which contributes an overhead of 20 bytes per image.
"We expect that developers will achieve in practice even better file size reduction with WebP when starting from an uncompressed image," product manager Richard Rabbat said in a post to The Chromium Blog.
In addition to the codec, Google also released a conversion tool allowing developers to translate existing images into the new format. They are also working on a patch for WebKit that will provide native support for WebP in a future version of Chrome. Transparency support is also planned in a future update to the format.

Penguins Use Late Surges To Knock Off Panthers
Oct. 20, 2012
YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio - Missy Hundelt had 17 kills as Youngstown State rode late surges in the third and fourth sets to claim a 25-22, 20-25, 25-21, 25-23 victory over the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Saturday afternoon at the Beeghly Center.
Elizabeth Egerer had 17 kills, Julie Kolinske 15 and Rachel Neuberger 12 for Milwaukee, which posted a much-improved effort from Friday night's loss at Cleveland State but could not pull out the win.
The Panthers hit a solid .255 for the match and neither team could claim a decided edge defensively, with the contest finishing even in digs (51-51) while YSU collected two more blocks (9-7). But, the Penguins made decisive plays when it counted, rallying from a big deficit to win the third frame before surging to break the 16th tie of the fourth set.
YSU (13-10, 3-6) also got 12 kills from Alexis Egler, 11 from Jenna Cavanaugh and 10 from Jackie Carlisle.
"It was an improved effort from last night and we did some positive things," Milwaukee head coach Susie Johnson said. "But at this point teams know they have an opportunity to beat us and they are taking advantage of it. Teams are finishing strong and we're having trouble getting it done at the end of sets, and that's where we are coming up a little bit short in a lot of the matches."
YSU pulled out a hard-fought win in the first set. After Milwaukee claimed an early 6-4 advantage, Youngstown clawed back to build a 16-13 lead. UWM responded with kills by Maggie Dunbar and Kolinske along with an ace from Arianna Wiersma to tie the frame at 16, but the Penguins answered with the next three points to take the lead back for good. UWM did pull back within two points a number of times, including at 24-22 on a Kolinske kill. But a kill by Shannon Watson put YSU ahead in the match.
The Panthers evened things up with a win in the second set. Milwaukee took the lead for good at 10-9 on a kill by Maggie Dunbar and went up 14-11 on a kill by Kolinske. YSU never got closer than two points after that, and a kill by Dunbar pushed the Milwaukee edge up to 22-16. The Penguins did close to within 23-20 but a kill by Egerer and an ace by Anna Bartz tied the match at a set apiece.
The Penguins used a big run late to pull out the third set. Milwaukee took a 7-6 lead on a Kolinske kill and eventually went up 13-8 after two kills from Egerer and a YSU error. The Panthers still led 18-13 after a YSU service error and 20-16 on a kill by Egerer. UWM's lead was 21-18 following another Egerer kill but the Panther offense then went quiet as the Penguins stormed back. YSU took the lead for good at 22-21 on a UWM error and eventually closed out the set on a kill by Egler.
YSU then finished off the match with a tight win in the fourth set. Milwaukee had a 16-15 lead after a kill by Dunbar and led 18-17 on a block by Hannah Blanchard and Neuberger. But the Penguins took the lead for good at 22-21 on a kill by Carlisle and eventually led 24-22 on a push-kill by Casey D'Ambrose. Milwaukee fought off one set-point on a kill by Kolinske but Egler answered with a kill to close things out.
Milwaukee has just one match next week, making the trip to Green Bay Friday for a battle with the Phoenix.

CHICAGO (AP) - Stormy weather meant 400,000 fewer people attended the Taste of Chicago this year.
Mayor Rahm Emanuel's office says about 1.1 million people attended the annual food and music festival this year in Grant Park. The Chicago Sun-Times reports that's down 400,000 from last year's 1.5 million attendance. Authorities closed the festival on Saturday due to stormy weather, saying it was a safety decision.
This year's figure is about a third of the number of people who attended the Taste of Chicago in 2006 and 2007. Those years attendance was 3.6 million.

Animal cruelty charge filed, againBy Brent Curtis
STAFF WRITER | July 01,2013A Hubbardton woman will appear in court today to face a charge of animal cruelty for a second time.
A week after her daughter, Elizabeth M. Harke, 25, pleaded innocent to an identical charge, Suzanne M. Hegarty, 53, was scheduled to appear in Rutland criminal court this morning to answer to a misdemeanor offense of cruelty to animals by depriving them of adequate food, water, shelter, rest, sanitation or necessary medical attention.
Hegarty faced the same charge in 2009 when she accepted a plea deal from prosecutors and pleaded guilty in exchange for an eight-year deferred sentence and probation as well as a mandate that 100 animals be removed from the farm she owned in Brandon.
She was allowed to keep 17 of her pets and livestock but she was forbidden from breeding animals, was ordered to spay and neuter her pets, and make monthly veterinarian visits.
Hegarty transferred ownership of the farm at 671 Kimball Road to her daughter in 2009 but continued to make all decisions about activities on the farm where police in a court affidavit describe finding numerous malnourished or dead animals this spring.
In an interview with Rutland County Sheriffs Deputy Milicia Lynds in April, Harke told police that while her name was on the farm her mom Suzanne had complete control over what happened there.
For instance, there was a point where Harke felt overwhelmed with the number of horses on the farm and wanted to sell some of them. Suzanne became very upset and demanded that they not be sold, Lynds wrote.
The daughter went on to tell police that she could no longer enable her mother and the 25-year-old told police she was frustrated that she wasnt allowed to work or go to college because then her mother wouldnt have anyone to keep up the farm.
But police said the keeping up of the farm was in shambles, and Lynds described numerous discoveries of malnourished or sick animals as well as dead animals scattered around the farm.
As I walked around with (a farmhand) you could see bones littered all over the property. There were full skeletons that were on the surface next to several calf huts, the deputy wrote.
In an interview with a former farmhand, Wade Bridger, 47, Lynds said she learned that Hegarty had allegedly tried to hide the number of animals she owned from police.
According to the affidavit, Bridger told police that Suzanne Hegarty had hired him to build a secret room at their residence in Hubbardton. The purpose of the room was to hide the animals Suzanne was not allowed to have in case they were raided by the police.
If convicted of the misdemeanor charges, Hegarty and Harke face up to one year in jail.
Hegarty, who will also answer today to a charge of violating her probation, could face up to another two years in jail for her prior conviction.

Airbus has begun joining the A350 XWB's 65-foot-long center fuselage with its 69-foot-long front fuselage in Toulouse, marking the official start of the mostly composite airplane's final assembly, the European manufacturer announced today.
Carbon fiber-reinforced polymer
In a large building in Belfast near where thousands of hard-working laborers hammered thick steel plates to massive ribs and fittings using thumb-size rivets to build the Titanic, Bombardier Aerospace is carving its own advanced technology niche, building wings for new aircraft models almost entirely from composite materials.
Boeing's difficulties in outsourcing sections of the 787 Dreamliner are well documented. From that troubling experience, however, an opportunity was born in the U.S. state of Washington, once the undisputed home of Boeing commercial airliner programs.
One of the big changes when Airbus unveiled its market-driven XWB revamp of the A350 back in May 2007 was the new structural concept: a fuselage constructed of 12 panels of carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) mounted on frames of aluminum-lithium alloy.
In a large building in Belfast very near where thousands of laborers hammered thick steel plates to massive ribs and fittings using thumb-size rivets to build the ill-fated Titanic ocean liner, Bombardier Aerospace is carving out its own advanced technology niche, building wings for new aircraft models almost entirely from composite materials.
Airbus has started making parts for the A350 XWB in Germany, the company announced today. Tom Enders, Airbus president and CEO, Gerald Weber, Airbus Germany executive vice president of operations and chairman of the board of management, and Peter Hintze, Parliamentary state secretary and German government aerospace coordinator, hosted a ceremony marking the event at the company's production plant in Stade.
German aerostructures specialist Premium Aerotec (Hall 1 Stand E197) has signed a contract with Airbus to provide the fuselage structure for the European manufacturer's new A350XWB. The structures are for the floor and aft pressure bulkhead, adding to existing work it has to build forward section elements and aft side shells. The work is worth a total of approximately $500 million, said the EADS subsidiary.
Complex materials, made of carbon fiber composites and a metal, are tricky to characterize. "We already know that titanium is a better match than aluminum with carbon fiber," research coordinator Benoît Sagot-Duvauroux said. But now researchers are endeavoring to put numbers on corrosion and dilatation issues, for example. Simulation of real-world operating conditions is the key to success in this work.
Manufacturers are relying more on composite materials for business aircraft construction thanks to a drop in manufacturing costs and better automation. Largely because of improved curing processes, OEMs are gradually eliminating expensive tooling and slashing the overall number of parts needed for a given aerostructure.
EADS Socata (Booth No. 3871) has started exploring a liquid-resin infusion (LRI) process for composite fuselage construction. The French company this month launched a $12.5 million, four-year research and development program, dubbed Fuscomp, which eventually is expected to yield a composite fuselage demonstrator. Its current business aircraft offering, the single-turboprop Socata TBM 850, uses mainly metal construction.

Exciting new research points to the potentially life-prolonging effects of Barry Callebaut's ACTICOA™ chocolate: chocolate that makes you live longer
Jan 17, 2007
Scientific research into the nutritional benefits of cocoa continues to unlock the secrets of this remarkable fruit. The positive effects of cocoa polyphenols on health and well-being have been known for some time now and the list of proven properties of these powerful antioxidants continues to grow. A recent study conducted by the independent ETAP Research Center in France is breaking entirely new ground in establishing links between the consumption of polyphenols and longevity. Its findings point to the possibility that cocoa polyphenols not only improve the quality of life, especially when getting older, but may well play a part in prolonging it as well. The study concluded that the lifespan of rats consuming Barry Callebaut's ACTICOA™ cocoa polyphenol powder was 30% longer than that of rats subjected to the same stress levels without being given cocoa polyphenols.
Barry Callebaut at the ISM 2007 in Cologne. Innovations in chocolate: the seducing power of taste and health
Dec 13, 2006
Innovation at Barry Callebaut always starts from the cocoa bean: a natural resource of hundreds of substances with potential health benefits. The trick is to find ways to use these naturally present substances and to preserve them throughout the chocolate making process. Health and indulgence – these are the two main areas in which Barry Callebaut innovates.
Barry Callebaut launches new website: Discover how healthy pure indulgence can be on www.acticoa.com
Nov 13, 2006
The launch of the new website, www.acticoa.com follows the development of ACTICOA™, a revolutionary process for making chocolate with high concentrations of polyphenols. Polyphenols are powerful substances with very positive effects on many bodily functions, such as brain function and the immune system.
Barry Callebaut reveals innovation in Chocolate at the ISM 2006
Jan 31, 2006

Barry Callebaut confirms the power of polyphenols in chocolate
Nov 29, 2005
Polyphenols (i.e. natural components found in plants, such as fruit, vegetables, black and green tea, and red wine) are well known for their potential health benefits. Less well known is the fact that cocoa contains four times the amount of polyphenols as tea and twice as much as red wine. Barry Callebaut has conducted thorough research in the development and production of chocolate rich in polyphenols. At a press conference today at the FIE Food Ingredients Europe trade fair in Paris, France, Barry Callebaut presented findings of their studies on polyphenols and their positive effect on cognitive functions and diseases such as prostate cancer.

Riedel Vitis Champagne Flute
We are sorry, we have no reviews to displayWrite the first review
This Bohemian glass merchant was the starting point for a direct line through several generations down to today´s corporate head Georg J. Riedel and his son Maximillian. Each Riedel in this long chain has been able to contribute his personal skills and views to expand the company´s success and make it what it is today. The Riedel story begins in 1678 in the northern part of Bohemia, bordering Schlesia - today the Czech republic and Poland respectively. This part of Bohemia was a German speaking enclave known as the Sudetenland. The Venetians brought back the knowledge of glass making from the Near East around 1.000 A.D. The knowledge of producing glass spread slowly towards the northern part of Europe, searching for energy, critical to the melting of glass. Wood was the source, causing a glass maker migration to the forests. Due to this migration, a glass culture developed in Bohemia in the 17th century.

GREEN BAY, WI (WHBL) - The Green Bay Packers, despite losing to the Steelers on Sunday, can still make the playoffs, thanks to an early Christmas present from the Chicago Bears. The Bears blew a chance to win the N-F-C North Division, after they got crushed at Philadelphia 54-11 Sunday night. The Packers had lost at home to Pittsburgh a few hours earlier, 38-31. That means Green Bay and Chicago will play for the North Division crown and a playoff berth next Sunday in their regular season finale at Soldier Field. Detroit was eliminated from the post-season after losing at home to the New York Giants, 23-20 in overtime. The Packer-Steeler contest was a wild see-saw affair, played during a snowstorm in Green Bay. The Packers had come back from a 10-point deficit to tie the game in the fourth quarter, when Matt Flynn fumbled the ball away on a quarterback scamper near the Green Bay 20-yard-line. Le'Veon Bell scored the winning touchdown on a one-yard run with 1:25 left. With no time-outs left, the Packers made it down to the Pittsburgh one-yard-line when right tackle Don Barclay was called for a false start. It pushed them back five yards and knocked 10 seconds off the clock. Flynn then over-shot Jarrett Boykin on the game's final play. The Packers suffered some major injuries in the game. Linebacker Clay Matthews re-injured the broken right thumb he suffered in early October. Running back Eddie Lacy also left early, when he re-injured the right ankle he hurt two weeks ago against Atlanta. Lacy ran for 84 yards and two touchdowns. He broke the Packers' rookie season rushing record with 1,112 yards - seven yards more than the mark John Brockington held for 32 years. Flynn threw for 232 yards and threw a touchdown pass to Jarrett Boykin. He also threw an interception that was run back for a touchdown. James Jones was Green Bay's leading receiver with nine catches for 84 yards. Bell ran for 124 yards. The Packers lost despite having the edge in total yards 370-343. The Pack also kept the ball about seven minutes longer.
Green Bay fell to 7-7-1, losing for the first time in three games. Pittsburgh improved to 7-8 to keep its slim playoff hopes alive. Next Sunday's Packer-Bear game has been moved from noon to 3:25 pm.

"This response card is perfect for the fall wedding that we are planning. Wedding Paper Divas designers successfully put everything that we needed on this card."
""We ordered a few samples (for free!) and out of all the lovely designs we chose this one. The quality is great, we love the colors and design, and it compliments our fall theme perfectly! The response cards are a great complement to the invitations. We highly recommend them!""
"We had a buffet for dinner so we didn't need the dinner choices on the response. We requested it be taken off and they did it with no problems. They even re-centered everything so there wasn't an empty space at the bottom. It came out great!"
"We did not need our guests to pre-select a meal (they'll order on the night) and the designers at Wedding Paper Divas were excellent! We were able to include text directing guests to our wedding website in place of the menu choices, and the whole thing looked fabulous. We had our envelopes printed with our return address, so we had to order the response cards in two batches - one set with my parents' address in New Jersey and one with our address in Australia. Both came out looking great and saved us a ton of time when addressing invites!"
"These RSVP cards are a perfect match to the Folk Artistry invitations. The Wedding Paper Divas design team worked with me on changing the bottom lines from a meal selection to an option to reply online. I love the way they turned out!"

Very true. We should live our personal lives and project a national image that reflect our values. Unfortunately, our "leaders"--public servants?-- have their own agenda that in no way reflects the majority opinion in the U.S. Sad but true. Look at all the results of Margaret Sanger's efforts re: abortion, the wast/fraud/abuse in our political/economic environments... we don't reflect that "Shining city on a hill" so much.

I'm an audiophile for home stereo system and never touched car audio and accessories until I installed new sound system in my Mini Cooper recently. Reason I got this kit simply because speaker cable was long enough for my installation, maybe also the keyword 'OFC' in the description. Overall quality really surprises me, and sound quality was pretty acceptable. I didn't get chance to A/B compare to any of my other speaker cables (from V.D.H/Zu Audio/Kimber) but also make sense not to. No harsh high and well present mid and low and it's only $40.

Great Board! Super damp and playful. If your looking for a board that can take you anywhere this is your board. Its super fast and good at high speeds. The only thing I would have like to see it do better is hold an edge on icy snow.

This board is simply incredible and I am now a Never Summer rider for life. You name it - It does it. Turns are so easy to initiate it's mind blowing, and its very poppy and fun. I strongly recommend this board and the Never Summer company!

If you want a rocker board thats perfect at everything you do, powder, park, groomers, this is definitely the one for you. I demoed it on a powder day in Utah and it was incredible, easily one the best board I've ridden. I was sold, then took it up to Vermont for some late spring skiing, and even then it tore right through the snow like a knife through butter. Great carves with the rocker, but the camber still pops you out of your turns. Floats through powder beautifully. Decent pop in the park, and good flex for buttering and jibbing. If you want a board that's a little more park oriented, the Evo is the same thing but softer. For all mountain, this is the best choice.

I am 5'10 and 160-165 lbs I am looking at either the 155 or 158, I was riding a 2010 K2 Darkstar 155 and was confortable but don't know if the 158 will give me a bit of extra stability and speed. I spend most time around the mountain, but will be getting into the park a little. Any help would be appreciated.

Member since
The great thing about the r.c. Tech on these boards is you don't have to get them big to be stable. If you like the 155 you used to ride and are comfortable on it, you'll love the SL 155. I know cause I have one!
Member since
im 5'6 and 165-175lbs...i have been rocking the SL since 2006 (with Rocker/camber) and I absolutely love it. If you are gaining weight, i would tell you to get the longer 158, but if you enjoy a lower swing weight the 155 will suffice.
i also ride a 153 evo! cant go wrong with a NS

ANTIGO, Wis. (WSAU) -- A house fire has claimed the life of an elderly Antigo woman Thursday.
Fire Chief Jon Petroskey says the fire began in her Arctic Street home shortly before 2 o'clock. "Units arrived on scene, and (there was) heavy smoke coming from the house. First-in crews did remove an elderly female from the house with the assistance of the Antigo Police Department. We did take measures of what we needed to do to try to revive her, transported her to Langlade Hospital, and she ended up passing away."
It took over four hours to bring the blaze under control, and firefighters had to deal with hotspots well into the evening. Petrowsky says the house has extensive damage, and the State Fire Marshall has been called in to assist. "The home is a balloon-style construction, and a lot of the fire, as it would get into the walls would drop down into the basement, so we had several different basement fires along with an attic. It worked its way up into the attic, so we had fire in multiple locations of the house." He says that along with the fatality is why the Fire Marshall is doing the investigation.
Much of the firefighting efforts had to be from the outside because it was too dangerous for attack teams to enter the house until late in the evening. "Once we had it somewhat more contained, we did make an interior attack again, and we were able to finally take care of it, which preserved a lot of the house intact so that the State Fire Marshall can do their full investigation and come to a conclusion. That's what we're hoping."
The name of the woman has not been released.

Bottom Bracket advice (I know nothing about bottom brackets)
Evening gents!
Right, my BB makes a clicking noise when I put any significant pressure on the left crank. I have never done anything with the bottom bracket, because I know nowt about them. I guess it needs replacing as as far as I know theyre not servicable. It's a screw in affair, on my Boardman Team Carbon (2009). Can I buy any external screw in and expect it to fit? Or does it have to be something specific? I really have no idea about BB30 or any of that stuff.
Any advice would be appreciated!
If it is a BB30, its not a screw on job and NOT for anyone who knows nothing about bottom brackets.
Just have a quick squint here http://www.bikeradar.com/gear/article/workshop-how-to-service-bb30-press...
sorry, that wasn't what I meant. Mine's definitely a screwfit.
To be honest, I didn't know a bb30 was specifically a press fit, I thought it had more to do with shell width. I guess it is a wider shell, but with the bb inside? Man, everyday's a school day...
"I can't believe I ate the whole thing..."
Presuming you haven't changed cranks and are still running SRAM Rival then you'll need a Truvativ 68x73mm GXP B/B.
You can change it yourself providing you have some grease, an 8mm Allen key and an external cup removal tool.
Hope this helps
Cranks are the same. I have the tools, and I'm confident changing it, just wasn't sure what I should change it for.
Does it have to be that BB, or are there equivalents?
Thank you!
"I can't believe I ate the whole thing..."
You could change it for a Hope or Chris King if you want to upgrade, but if the original lasted well then just get the same again.
I think I get it now. Any 68/73mm ext threaded bb will fit (with/without spacers)...?
"I can't believe I ate the whole thing..."
sometimes the cups just work a bit loose. I've got rid of clicks by taking the cranks off, cleaning, re-greasing and refitting the cups nice and tight. I use copper grease on parts that don't move.
If you change it for a Hope or Chris king you will also need to buy adapters in order to fit without causing expensive damage. This is because Truvativ cranks are thinner at the spindle on the non drive side than other cranks so the hole is slightly smaller. Raceface & Shimano B/B's won't work at all and Truvativ or SRAM B/B's will work no probs.. Again this is assuming you have the original SRAM cranks..
Strppied and regreased everything. The LH side definitely feels a little 'grittier' when spinning the bearing by hand. Reassembled, and about 2 miles before the tick was back. Ah well, new bb it is.
Thanks for your help guys!!

To meet specific needs, Western Michigan University ("University") established positions designed to attract and retain aviation mechanics and certified flight trainers. The people holding such positions will be known as aviation associates and are required to hold airframe and/or powerplant licenses (aviation mechanics) or be certified flight trainers with certification satisfactory to the University for all times during their employment with University.
Aviation associate positions are normally twelve-month, full-time positions. To keep aircraft in peak operating condition, aircraft and equipment mechanics perform scheduled maintenance, make repairs, and complete inspections required by the Federal Aviation Administration. They also supervise work performed by non-certified individuals. Certified flight trainers offer ground, simulation, and flight training for University students and others as approved by the University to facilitate their achieving aircraft ratings.
Aviation associates are employees at will and as such have no property interest in the continuation of such employment. Aviation associates may be terminated without cause and without prior notice, and no reasons are required or must be stated for termination of employment.
While aviation associates may be eligible to attend meetings of the department(s) and the College of Aviation, they do not participate in governance at the department, college, or University level.
The rate of compensation is established at the time of appointment or any subsequent written amendment to that appointment. Any adjustment to these rates is not automatic or included in any across-the-board raises that may be applicable to other University employees.
The following compensation guidelines apply to certified flight trainers and follow a step-rate system based on billable instruction hours completed by the trainer at the University. These positions are non-exempt.
Internal Trainer
- Billable hours of training: Less than 350 hours
- Trainer rate: $18.00/hr
- Duty time flat rate: $15.00/hr
Regular Trainer*
*A regular trainer must have acquired the instrument instructor rating on his/her flight instructor certificate.
- Billable hours of training: 351 hours or more
- Trainer rate: $24.00/hr
- Duty time flat rate: $15.00/hr
Aviation mechanics are non-exempt positions governed by the University's staff compensation system pay structure. Aviation mechanic pay minimum, midrange, and maximum pay rates will be commensurate with Grade 16 on the staff compensation system pay structure and follow any changes to the pay structure as they happen.
Aviation associates are provided the same leave from work benefits as provided to clerical-technical staff and are subject to University approvals. In addition, they will receive a Bronco identification card, parking permit, and health insurance, with the same requirements and contributions as required of clerical-technical staff. Aviation associates are not eligible for (1) life insurance, (2) disability insurance, (3) the University's retirement plan, (4) University-paid health insurance upon retirement, (5) University retiree status, or (6) payoff of sick leave upon termination of appointment. It is expected that annual leave will be used before the appointment terminates. To be benefits-eligible, a singular position must be .69 FTE or greater.
Benefits eligibility is determined upon the FTE of a singular appointment. An aviation associate position shall not exceed 1.0 FTE.
Individuals appointed as aviation associates may have had limited or no professional employment prior to the appointment.
Employment as an aviation associate at WMU shall not exceed three years either in a singular appointment or by three consecutive one-year appointments.
Aviation mechanics usually work indoors but may also be required to work outdoors in adverse weather conditions. They often work under time pressure to maintain the availability of the equipment. Frequently, mechanics must lift or pull objects weighing more than 70 pounds. They often stand, lie, or kneel in awkward positions and occasionally must work in precarious positions.
Loud noise, vibration, and other uncomfortable working conditions are common. Aviation associates have a tremendous responsibility to maintain safety and other required standards, and one qualification for aviation associates is to be able to successfully handle and perform this tremendous responsibility to ensure safety of persons and property.
It is recognized that aviation associates may at times be required to work on the weekend or other times that the University may be generally closed.
In instances where policies, requirements, and procedures are not addressed herein, aviation associates are subject to those published in the Employee Handbook for non-bargaining unit employees and other policies and requirements established by the University and/or the College of Aviation.
Effective 09/03/10

Pancrelipase is a combination of three enzymes (proteins): lipase, protease, and amylase. These enzymes are normally produced by the pancreas and are important in the digestion of fats, proteins, and sugars.
Pancrelipase is used to replace these enzymes when the body does not have enough of its own. Certain medical conditions can cause this lack of enzymes, including cystic fibrosis, chronic inflammation of the pancreas, or blockage of the pancreatic ducts.
Pancrelipase may also be used following surgical removal of the pancreas.
Pancrelipase may also be used for other purposes not listed in this medication guide.

What are the possible side effects of pancrelipase?
Get emergency medical help if you have any of these signs of an allergic reaction: hives; difficulty breathing; swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat.
Call your doctor at once if you have severe or unusual stomach pain. This could be a symptom of a rare but serious bowel disorder.
Less serious side effects may include:
This is not a complete list of side effects and others may occur. Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088.
What is the most important information I should know about pancrelipase?
You should not take pancrelipase if you are allergic to pork proteins.
Before taking pancrelipase, tell your doctor if you have gout, kidney disease, a history of intestinal blockage, a sudden onset of pancreatitis, or worsening of chronic pancreatic disease.
Use pancrelipase regularly to get the most benefit. Get your prescription refilled before you run out of medicine completely.
Do not hold the tablets or capsule contents in your mouth. The medication may irritate the inside of your mouth.
Do not inhale the powder from a pancrelipase capsule, or allow it to touch your skin. It may cause irritation, especially to your nose and lungs.
If you miss a dose of this medicine, skip the missed dose and wait until your next scheduled dose to take the medicine. Do not take extra medicine to make up the missed dose.

The prize for this contest, besides the money (which my husband assures me would come in handy), is the opportunity to represent The Bille in the social world, which completely fits… me.
Why? You ask. It's well known that while I have a winning personality, I don't have the luck of the Irish. I've only won about three things in my life. Once, I was in Nassau and I put a nickel in the slot machine and won $50. Another time, when I was 13, I won a picture of Jack Nicklaus (You know, the famous golfer. I didn't know who he was either.) Last year, I won a $500 gift certificate from Kobo. Seriously, that one WAS like winning $1m for a book lover like me.
It fits because of who The Bille Lotto is.
The more I researched them, the more I wanted to be involved with the organization. Not only does the lottery have a huge prize, but they help people give back when something great (like winning a jillion dollars) happens to them.
Ten percent of sales for The BiLLe go directly to The BiLLe's Charity Pool, potentially 300,000,000 Euros per week! And players choose which charities should receive two-thirds of those charitable donations!
I'm a huge fan of karma and paying it forward, and this organization is totally down with that philosophy.
When I decided to enter the contest, I came up with a variety of ideas for my video entry, all of which were shot down by my teenager as way too embarrassing, and included carrying a cardboard cut-out of Robert Downy Jr. around my suburb. Then, I thought,
CROWDSOURCING. THIS IS A SOCIAL MEDIA CONTEST! (You know that I think in CAPS, right?)
I asked the Internet 'What would you do with One Million Dollars', and the answers I received formed my submission video.
By the way, Invest in Blueberries was my son. He's an interesting young man.
I THANK each and every one of the people who answered my question. Your answers inspired me, made me laugh, made me cry, and made me smile.
I hope that one day all of your beautiful dreams come true.
AND NOW…it's time to play…
Super fun, and totally in my comfort zone this asking people to do something for me. At least its only until June 30.
So, Click HERE. And tell your friends. Spread through out your Networks. I promise, I won't let you down (begging…again!!)
Also, I have video of firefighters stripping and I will share them if I win….
Not that I'm bribing anyone or anything. But, here's a preview photo…

Volume 66 Issue 2 wsusignpost.com Tuesday, June 24, 2003 n Wa Ilk way saffefty poSIcy gefis mnialteeoweF By Wendy Leonard editor in chief The Signpost The thoroughfares making up campus will seem less crowded from now on. Campus walkway safety has been a concern for Weber State University Board of Trustees. "It has become obvious over the years that Weber State hasn't done what other schools have done, and the need is increasing as the student population grows," said Norm Tarbox, vice president of administrative services. In 1997, the Utah State Legislature passed House Bill 196, which requires that, "A person operating a bicycle or any vehicle or device propelled by human power shall yield the right-of-way to any pedestrian and shall give audible signal before overtaking and passing a pedestrian." The purpose of such a policy is to ensure safe conditions on campus walkways when wheeled vehicles are operated near pedestrians. The existing policy for operation of a vehicle on campus walkways has changed. "We are essentially changing the presumption about who has access to the sidewalks," Tarbox said. The new policy allows only emergency-response and snow-removal vehicles on sidewalks without a pass. Passes will be issued on an individual basis and will be valid for one trip only. Beginning in the fall, students will be seeing police on bicycles monitoring sidewalks. They will be issuing tickets to any offenders in the Pedestrian Zone. Policy states, "Illegitimate use of walkways will be a moving violation against the vehicle operator and will be enforceable in the same manner as other traffic violations."

Program review for College of Science By Maria Villasenor sr. news reporter The Signpost The College of Science could move into a new direction due to the findings of an external review team which began the review for the 2002-2003 year last fall. The review advocated an industrial aim that the college has not focused education toward in the past. "They recommended we direct curriculum to helping students become more applied so that they could get a job with a bachelor's degree, with more training and education of application," Gallie said. The focus on applied chemistry, mathematics, and physics would also help increase the number of majors. "It's something they brought to surface in a tangible way," Galli said. Associate Provost Kathleen Lukken and College of Science Dean J. Ron Galli worked together during the review. Some of the findings were already known to the program. "It's a process of continually evaluating and reviewing ourselves," Galli said, "and being evaluated by people from different vantage points so we can eliminate any self-serving biases that limit." Reviewing teams consisted of faculty from Weber State University and other universities, as well as alumni and an education specialist. The program review is part of a campus-wide review for all colleges. All seven departments of the college were reviewed, which include botany, chemistry, geosciences, mathematics, microbiology, physics and zoology. See Review page 3 Dean of students takes new promotion By Natalie Cutler news editor The Signpost After only twelve months as dean of students for Weber State University, Sheldon Nord has accepted a position as vice president for student affairs at Eastern Oregon University. His last day at WSU will be Friday, June 27. "We just moved here last summer and we love it here," Nord said. "We were not looking forward to leaving WSU. But I have been interested in this job at Eastern Oregon University for about twelve years, it's my dream job." When working on his doctoral degree, Nord always chose EOU as his example school for writing about and solving scenarios for. Nord was recently selected to replace Harris Shelton, retiring vice president of student affairs, for the upcoming school year and Nord said he is excited to move to Oregon. "My wife was born and raised in Oregon, my daughter was born in Oregon, and I lived there for 16 years," Nord said. Nord holds a bachelor's degree in social science from Western Baptist College and a4 master's degree in student services administration from Oregon Slate University. He completed his doctorate in higher education in 1997 through Indiana University and spent a year in Jakarta Indonesia. Nord has worked in several different colleges, and his background in student affairs includes director of admissions, dean of enrollment management, vice president for student life and enrollment management, dean of students, advisor to the president and vice president of student affairs. "He is one of the best administrators I have ever worked with," said Jeffrey Hurst, WSU director of counseling and psychological services. "His personality and motivation and integrity have all been an inspiration to me, and I think to others at the university." "(It has been) a real pleasure to work with Sheldon," said Anand Dyal-Chad, WSU vice president of sjudent affairs. "He has been professional, and he is concerned about students' needs." As the dean of students, Nord worked with special student populations, student-conduct issues and administering student code. See Nord page 3 o : n i ' O c R I LA U Sheldon Nord

|Associated Students of Weber State University; A generous grant from the Utah State Library and the Institute of Museum and Library Services.
|Weber's current student newspaper, the Signpost, first appeared on September 29, 1937. For two years prior to that time, campus news was disseminated via announcements posted on a bulletin board known as the "Signpost". As a result, the masthead of the first issue of the paper itself featured a rudimentary wooden sign with the title spelled out in rustic-looking letters. Over the years the paper has been published continuously, though the look, size and style has changed several times.

Half the salt is ready for deployment at the six facilities, while half is stored in reserve to replenish supplies as needed. The total amount of salt is enough for more than 2,300 truckloads. Louisville Metro has budgeted $841,000 for salt and de-icer supplies for the 2004-2005 winter. On average, Louisville has about 15 days of snow or freezing precipitation per year that require mobilization of the snow-fighting fleet and personnel. Last winter, 21 days required snow removal.

I think the your first blog post is supposed to be special, informative, creative and etc….well not mine.
I want to let you know what this site is really about and a little bit more about me and why you should be reading this.
My name is Larry Holisky, I own and operate 2(soon to be 3) inkjet and toner cartridge retail refilling stores called Ink N More. The purpose of this site is not to promote my business, but to educate and inform people that have printers and are using ink and toner cartridges about what's going on in the industry and how it affects you and me.
I get many of the same questions everyday in the store so I thought it would be a great idea to create a site where people can get answers to their questions without them being pressured to buy something.
I will be adding more to the site as I can, but in the mean time, if you read this and you have a question, please ask and I will answer it the best I can, as soon as I can.

Joni Mitchell's new two-disc album, "Don Juan's Reckless Daughter," is not likely to appeal to the "You Light Up My Life" crowd. It may not even appeal to the broader critical and public audience that enjoyed Miss Mitchell's "Court and Spark" and "Hejira" albums. But these are still a fascinating pair of records.

A Declining Standard
I joined the club just over 3 years ago, principally for the Gym. I was told how brilliant the TGS key system was at helping to motivate, track activity, and provide general support to the Gym routine. It was good. Now the TGS does not work and is to be taken out. The club boasts state of the art machines. That is not true. Given they are not replacing the TGS Key system, it seems unlikely ever to be true. Other clubs around have better facilities. Three months on (May 2013). DLL Swindon have failed to justify the premium charge for being a member of their Gym. Given the drop in the DLL club standards a nearby hotel gym is now just as good, and a lot cheaper. If you are after the premium facilities, they are nearby as well, at a similar charge to DLL Swindon.

Many of the Republicans and Democrats who want to be the next governor of Georgia are at this moment discussing the state's future at a candidates' forum sponsored by the Georgia Chamber of Commerce.
But what is said there is apparently a secret as the Chamber has denied requests from The Atlanta Journal-Constitution and other outlets to cover the panel discussion at the Ritz-Carlton along Lake Oconee.
The closing of the forum to the media has prompted protests from the AJC and other publications that are part of the Georgia Newspaper Partnership. Thirteen daily newspapers from around the state have joined together to cover this year's elections.
Chamber spokeswoman Joselyn Baker said Wednesday that it is the Chamber's "standard policy" to close board meetings to the media. Yet, at a forum Wednesday before the Chamber board for candidates for attorney general, a reporter for the Fulton County Daily Report was allowed to cover to discussion. When asked why that forum was seemingly open and the governor's forum is closed, Baker responded that Ed Bean, the editor for the Report, was the moderator at the attorney general forum so his reporter was allowed to cover it.
In an e-mail to Baker and to the gubernatorial campaigns on Thursday, Bert Roughton, managing editor of the AJC, called the move to close today's forum "outrageous."
"Have Georgia politicians not heard the powerful desire voters have to be included in deliberations that can set the course of their government? Apparently not," Roughton said in the message.
Several campaigns, when contacted Wednesday, said they were unaware the forum was closed. None, however, said that would keep them from attending.
Other editors joined Roughton in slamming the Chamber's decision.
In a message to the gubernatorial candidates, Statesboro Herald executive editor Jim Healy asked, "How many times today will you utter the phrase 'The people of Georgia …' as a preface to whatever issue you address at the Lake Oconee debate sponsored by the Georgia Chamber of Commerce? That will ring a little hollow, don't you think, since only a select few Georgians actually will hear your remarks?"
In a similar message, Savannah Morning News executive editor Susan Catron asked the candidates to remember the need for transparency in government.
"If all of you truly are running to serve the citizens of Georgia, it would seem you'd want to do that by ensuring each of them had access to your views on issues pertaining to them," Catron wrote. "Closing this event and others like it sends the signal you will neither value nor trust the opinions of the citizens you wish to serve."
Update 3:17 p.m. : Sen. Jeff Chapman (R-Brunswick), one of the Republican candidates for governor, told Terry Dickson of the Georgia Times-Union, one of the papers in the new partnership, that he was dismayed the press was excluded from the forum.
"I got there and I was thinking, 'Good grief. A political forum can't even get the press here.' Apparently they weren't invited," Chapman said.
Update 4:23 p.m.: Chris Carpenter, campaign manager for former Gov. Roy Barnes, a Democrat seeking another term, responded to Roughton by agreeing.
Barnes, Carpenter said, "has always had a policy of openess. So, it was a lapse in judgment for Governor Barnes to attend a public forum that shut out the people."

Curiously, in a supposed anti-incumbent year, most of the departing are not retiring but seeking higher office. We may recycle more than we replace. The bad news is that a frustrating 114 seats still have but one contestant. Two of them aren't even incumbents, meaning they will affect state policy without being vetted by voters. And I have to think that we'd be better off if many had run instead for the Legislature — and cut down on the number running unopposed. Georgia's problems are numerous. They aren't going away. There's too much stale thinking at the Capitol, on both sides of the aisle. New voices would be welcome.

Maverick Takes Delivery of First EC130T
Las Vegas heli-tour operator Maverick Helicopters has taken delivery of the first Eurocopter EC130T2. Maverick was a launch customer for the upgraded and redesigned EcoStar, signing an agreement earlier this year to purchase up to 50. Maverick operates EC130s exclusively and currently has the world's largest fleet. It took delivery of its first EC130B4 in 2003. Compared with the B4, the T2 offers a more powerful 950-shp Arriel 2D engine (6,000-hour TBO), better fuel efficiency, more useful load, improved air conditioning and vibration control and an optional ride-side sliding cabin door.
