How about the ones that just went after KFC?
I think we need Johnny Cockroach!
"If the battery life doesn't fit, we must bull-***!"
A class-action lawsuit would probably do most to light a fire under notebook manufacturers. «Truth in advertising» (an oxymoron if I've ever hear one), innit ?...
And don't forget: The ampere-hour capacity of a lithium battery shrinks by about 20% per year,
starting with the Day of Manufacture!
Good point Richard! We should make sure that is detailed in the specs as well!
Good point about the day of manufacture: too many people are unaware that it's a chemical machine that's degrading on the shelf even before you buy it.
Good stuff dude. I like it.
Mr. Moorehead and AMD FTW! :)
manufactures do need more regulations imposed on them they base there proformance marks on the best possible senario and take that figure even though most people will never see that proformance they should take that figure then one at 80% usage and quote the avarage.
on my new laptop well its coming up for 6 months old now i can get 2.50 hours out the standard 6 cell battery when im on messanger and browsing the web which is not bad since they quote 3 hours.
its a HP 6735s with 2.1 AMD Turion x2
im sure if i turned the wifi off and dimmed the screen i could push it past 3 hours lol
the thing that annoys me most is when they misslead you about HDD speeds a standard 5400rpm sata drive can only actually transfer at 15 MegaBytes per second but since data transfer speeds are measured in Megabits per second they can quote 150Mbps and make most people think thats fast plus you have to wait also since you have latancy and seak time that totals about 20ms between them so it ends up being sooooooo slow for large data transfers
I heartily second the Active:Standby time ala mobile phones.
Active should have the following as a base level:
1. Watching a video clip (should be a standard clip for testing)
2. Browsing the web, checking email
3. Using Office apps
4. Wifi On throughout the test
5. Speaker / headphone playing
1. LCD at 75% or more
2. CPU at 80% or more
3. Wifi on
Resting (Standby) should be:
1. LCD at lowest level (not off)
2. CPU at lowest idle speed
3. Wifi off
With this min:max range, users can better gauge the actual batt life base on their own usage pattern. :)
Akita, isn't it funny that you can get better battery life information on cellphones? Heck look at the iphone 3G. They do a great job. They are usage model based and disclose the heck out of it.
Info: http://www.apple.com/iphone/compare-iphones/
Disclosure: http://www.apple.com/iphone/battery.html
Wow, I've never looked at that before and I have an iPhone 3G myself. Apple is pretty darn stand-up there for sure!
I am with a law firm that is investigating complaints that some laptop batteries run out faster than their advertised lifespan. Check us out at http://www.girardgibbs.com/batterylife.asp, or give us a call toll-free at (866) 981-4800. You can also reach me by email at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Trying to get around the battery life claims by quoting "mAh" figures for the battery itself is about as useful as quoting how much gasoline the tank of a car holds--without knowing the MPG the car gets, it's virtually useless information.
Why does the computer industry keep stumbling over this kind of problem? First it was monitor sizes (the bezel covered some of the quote diagonal space, making it useless); then it was the disk drive manufacturers (in most people's book an "MB" is 2^10 bytes--1,048,576--not 10^6 bytes--1,000,000--and when formatting takes away 10%-20%, that's a lie; now it's battery life.
Most of these problems have been resolved by class-action suits, IIRC, so perhaps that's what will happen here, too.

Louisville Water Company 2010 Preliminary Budget
At its October meeting, Louisville Water Company's (LWC) Board of Water Works received a preliminary budget for 2010. It's one that emphasizes investing in LWC's aging infrastructure and investing to meet upcoming drinking water regulations.
The 2010 capital budget, which is $97.4 million, addresses both of those goals. A large component involves the Crescent Hill Filtration Plant, the state's largest water treatment plant and the plant that serves 70% of LWC's customers. LWC is in the midst of renovating the 100 year-old facility. Work in 2010 will focus on installing a new filtration system, upgrading the softening basins and bringing an on-site chlorine generation facility on-line. This budget also includes finishing the Riverbank Filtration System at the B.E. Payne Treatment Plant in Prospect, installing new transmission mains throughout our service area and improving pumping and storage facilities.
To help finance the capital budget for the next three years and complete the above mentioned projects, LWC plans to issue bonds in the 4th quarter of 2009 for $120 million dollars. The 2010 budget includes $4.8 million interest expense.
As part of the 2010 budget, the Board is considering a rate increase of 4.5 to 5.5%. This rate increase is needed to fund the interest expense on the $120 million bond issue and will increase a typical residential monthly water bill by $1.00, about 3 cents a day.
Like other businesses, the recession has impacted LWC. Water sales and interest income have dropped sharply. In 2009, water consumption is down 5% overall and nearly 17% for industrial customers. LWC has significantly cut operation and maintenance expenses and also reduced the workforce. The 2010 budget includes a small increase in water sales (< 1%); labor expenses are flat and operations and maintenance expenses are increasing only 1.5% from 2009.
The Board of Water Works will review and finalize the 2010 budget at its November meeting.
LWC welcomes customer comments. You can send an email with a question or comment about the 2010 budget.

Happy 26th Birthday, Kaitlin!!!!!!!!!!
All hail Kaitlin, the Cruel & Capricious!
Education is the means by which we break free
(Source: faunasworld)
All hail Kaitlin, the Cruel & Capricious!
Higher education & student affairs does not exist in a vacuum, working outside of the systematic oppression that affects our students, our loved ones, and our own lives. There is a movement to speak and discuss social justice issues within student affairs - see the commissions and committees within ACPA and NASPA. Yet all to often, I feel that there is still a disconnect between how we discuss issues at the Academy and how we understand current events.
To be honest, most of us do not have time to pay close attention to the news, especially when it does not directly impact us.
But it always impacts us. We have to be aware of current events affecting social justice issues and make sense of how it affects us. We can't be afraid of appearing "political".
This is a new space on the internets for those of us that want to share the news of current events in the feminism realm and discuss.
That doesn't mean we make the mistake of the feminist movements that have come before us, where we only focus on white, middle-upper class women's issues. Nope. This is an space that remembers "Feminism is worthless without intersectionality and inclusion."

The Origin of the phrase "Women of Color"
Terms like 'women of color' are not just descriptions, but have political and ideological histories and current meanings. Here's a clip of Loretta Ross, cofounder and national coordinator of SisterSong -Women of Color Reproductive Justice Collective, sharing one of the birthing moments of the term 'women of color'.
"They didn't see [Women of Color] as a biological designation… It is a solidarity definition. It is a commitment to work in collaboration with other oppressed Women of Color who have been 'minoritized.'"
Student affairs isn't great at 'getting' diversity issues. Yes, that's supposed to be our niche area but there is a small minority of people who seem to understand the greater issues that our students are dealing with.
Take this story for example. A 14-year old black male teenager is tackled by police while walking down the street to his mother while holding a puppy. One sits on him and another holds him down by his neck, effectively choking him.
His alleged crime: giving the officers "dehumanizing stares" and "clenching his fists." …Which I suppose is threatening to grown adults?
Except…according to him, he was holding his puppy, so he couldn't have been clenching his fists?
Our students of color go through these experiences, and if they personally do not then they experience other incidents of racial aggression because we live in a racist society. We need to recognize this and take it into account when working with students.

Paavali Jumppanen
Finnish pianist Paavali Jumppanen's New York debut in 2001 at the 92nd Street Y, presented by Young Concert Artists, garnered reviews of "fresh and exciting" playing and "immense power and an extraordinary range of colors." Mr. Jumppanen has since toured extensively in the U.S. performing at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC and at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston, where he has, since his debut concert in 2001, performed frequently. His New York appearances have included performances at the Metropolitan Museum, Morgan Library and at Carnegie's Weill Recital Hall. In 2002, he made his New York concerto debut with the New York Chamber Symphony conducted by Gerard Schwarz at Alice Tully Hall.
In recent years, Mr. Jumppanen has dedicated much of his time into exploring music of the Viennese Classical Period. He has often performed the complete Beethoven Piano Sonatas cycle and, following one of his Beethoven recitals, the Boston Globe reported how "the sheer, overflowing energy of his musicianship held one's attention throughout this impressive performance and the result was a bracing and enjoyable reminder of how path-breaking Beethoven's music was." Mr. Jumppanen has recently completed a multi-year project of recording the Sonatas cycle. The first part of the recording will be released in March 2014 (Ondine).
During the 2013-14 season Mr. Jumppanen appears with the Lahti Symphony Orchestra, performing the five Piano Concertos by Beethoven. In addition he will perform with the Helsinki and Turku Philharmonic orchestras in Finland, and return to the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston to begin a two-year project focusing on works by Schumann and Stockhausen. He will also perform recitals in Germany, Switzerland, France, and Italy. Furthermore, the current season includes a tour of Australia with the Australian Chamber Orchestra as well as appearances at the Chanel Nexus festival in Tokyo and Messiaen festival in France.
Mr. Jumpppanen spent the 2011-12 season in residence at the Music Department of Harvard University in Cambridge where, in addition to deepening his understanding of Viennese 18th century music, he was able to realize his longtime aspiration to study musicology and music theory. During the 2010-11 season Mr. Jumppanen performed the complete Piano Sonatas by Mozart at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston. The recording of complete Sonatas for Piano & Violin by Beethoven (Claves) performed by Mr. Jumppanen and violinist Corey Cerovsek received the Midem Prize of Cannes in February 2008 for best chamber music disc of the year.
Paavali Jumppanen was born in 1974 in Espoo, where at the age of five, began piano lessons at the Music Institute. In 1992 he entered the Sibelius Academy in Helsinki, and from 1997 to 2000 studied with Krystian Zimerman at the Basel Music Academy in Switzerland. In Basel Mr. Jumppanen also studied the organ, fortepiano, and clavichord. In addition to his institutional studies, Russian born pianist Konstantin Bogino has been an important mentor for Mr. Jumppanen throughout his studies and career.
After winning first prize at Helsinki's Maj Lind Competition in 1994, Mr. Jumppanen has become regular soloist of many of Finland's leading orchestras. He frequently appears with the Helsinki Philharmonic, Finnish Radio Symphony Orchestra, and Lahti Symphony Orchestra. He has also performed extensively in Europe, Japan, and Australia, appearing with the Melbourne Symphony, Oslo Philharmonic, Stuttgart Philharmonic and the BBC Symphony Orchestra as well as appearances at numerous festivals including the Kuhmo Chamber Music Festival in Finland and the La Roque d'Anthéron Festival in France. In 2015 Mr. Jumppanen will begin serving as the artistic director to PianoEspoo festival, the most prominent international piano festival in his native Finland.
Mr. Jumppanen also frequently performs the classics of the avant-garde as well as contemporary works and regularly commissions works from Finnish composers. His recording of the complete Piano Sonatas by Pierre Boulez (DGG 2005) earned the praise of London's Guardian, calling it "the best recorded disc of Boulez's piano music so far." Having worked with Pierre Boulez himself, Jumppanen has become a celebrated advocate of Boulez's music. His repertoire also includes the large cycle for solo piano, Vingt Regards Sur l'Enfant Jėsus by Olivier Messiaen. His performance of the work at the Gardner Museum in Boston in 2010, subsequently selected as one of the top ten performances of the year by the Boston Globe, was reported by the Boston Globe to be "a rare wedding of intellectual penetration, coloristic imagination, and sheer virtuoso firepower."

Sold a home in 2012.
We've known Bruce for over 20 years and have purchased and sold all our Real Estate through him. He is a consummate professional that truly knows the entire realm of the Real Estate industry. You will not find a more honest, fair dealing broker anywhere. I would highly recommend him to anyone that's either buying or selling their home.

Sold a home in 2012.
From our first meeting with Bruce, we found him to be straightforward and a creative problem solver. Without comparable, local prices to evaluate our older, well preserved hme, Bruce was able to arrive at an asking price that reflected both our own value of the property and the value we could expect from others. Nearly 100% of those who viewd our property found the price to reflect its value. In the end, we sold for a price that pleased both us and our buyers.
Bruce is knowledgeable and responsive, commanding every step of our selling process with seeming ease and a depth of knowledge about real estate, especially local real estate. Intiially a stranger to us, Bruce is now considered by us to be a friend.

Sold a Single Family home in 2010 for approximately $200K in Niagara Falls, NY.
Bruce is a great agent. He is extremely professional and very knowledgeable about the area and real estate. He kept us updated on how the negotiations were going during the sale of our home. Also, Bruce, on short notice, took me to see several properties for a potential second home. When we are ready to purchase the second home we will be calling Bruce. I would highly recommend Bruce!

Sold a Single Family home in 2008 in Lewiston, NY.
I have had the pleasure of working with Bruce through three real estate transactions. His way of treating his clients like family was a huge plus in a very nerve racking time for us. His knowledge of the real estate world and professionalism allowed us to relax and know that we would achieve our goals. His honesty and high standard of service make him a stand alone agent in the real estate business. I highly recommend him as your next agent. Lisa Jackson Lewiston, NY

Too Early for a Goaltending Controversy?
|Mathieu Garon
|Dwayne Roloson
|Mathieu Garon
|Dwayne Roloson
No. G controversy > no G controversy almost every time.
No doubt Garon has played well.
Wouldn't you say the D has also played better lately?
I don't know about that Mike. If Garon hadn't been lights out in the last two games, I'm sure that Oiler fans would have selected a D to tar and feather in each of those games.
Along the same lines, Vancouver's D became vaunted the day that Luongo showed up, methinks.
By my memory MacTavish has shown a tendency to ride the hot hand in goal. I'm not sure how Roloson will react, but he'd better come up huge vs Minny or Garon will be starting on Saturday methinks.
The thing with Garon, is that when he's stopping pucks he looks great doing it. Athletic even. I can see fans getting on a Garon bandwagon. Myself included.
With Roloson, who has obviously been a very good goalie for a long time, so it's not just luck or anything ... still, even when he's on a hot streak, like the playoff run, a lot of his saves have an Inspector Clousseau quality about them. His style is a little harder to love.
Does anyone have anything to say about Garon as a starter who gets a lot of games. I was surprised to hear him say on HNIC that he played over 60 games for LA a couple of years back, winning around half iirc. Then Crow came in with his own man.
Is he JS Aubin or a whole lot better?
There is always an element of risk with goalies where you are left wondering if/when what you are seeing is the real emergence or a temporary thing.
There are so few "sure thing" goalies -- Brodeur, Luongo . . . and an emerging number of stories of guy who "used to be third in line comes out of nowhere."
Other than the injury riddled year in LA, Garon has never had (arguably earned) the shot at the alpha dog spot. Goodness knows that must have been part of the reason he chose Edmonton (fair to decent chance that he would get a shot within his 2 year contract).
I have no idea how to objectively compare "when a goalie has consistency" but dammit, that was two games that we had stellar goaltending.
I think the season's first game vs San Jose had some famous Roli stops -- but I don't remember having seen once since. If he could have one of those, say tonight -- that would be a happy situation indeed.
Either way, how could you not go with Garon on Sat versus the Flames? If only for the "he's in their head" factor.
The Oilers appear to be doing a better job collapsing down into the the goalmouth scrum -- so that may be playing into it too.
First off, I have loved the chance to read what's been posted on this site for the last couple of weeks. Fantastic work!
Regarding our defense, I caught the Vancouver game in full and I don't think you can successfully argue that Garon had a stellar defensive performance in front of him. When you've got a guy going in on a half-breakaway in GDed overtime and the defender doesn't even pretend to recover positionally, you thank Garon for the save and move on with life. This isn't to discredit he d-corps who by my eye have indeed done a good job of keeping it simple since Rourke was summoned but there have been too many plays per game that I've seen that scream quality scoring chance for me to want to ignore the difference between Roli and Garon.
I don't know what to make of Garon's current hot streak, however. I love what I've seen from him, he looks confident, and he has made easy and difficult saves alike over his past two outings. I would love if he is a guy that just needed his "chance" and runs away with this thing but the skeptic in me says he cools off at some point over the next couple of months and Roli's play gets better. I'm still not opposed to a Roloson deal at the deadline if the situation warrants but I think you have got to take the due diligence (time) to see if Roloson reverts to his solid form. He has the track record, even through last years tumultuous season, to warrant it.
I'm a patient guy about this sort of thing but I will admit it's a fun storyline to watch! Garon has played great and is one of those tenders who looks good enough through flexibility/acrobatics when he's playing well that you can't help but cheer for him. Go Oilers!
Welcome to Roli's nightmare.
I was surprised to hear him say on HNIC that he played over 60 games for LA a couple of years back, winning around half iirc.
He was great in LA, but got bumped for Cloutier. (?) He's great acquisition, and would be fine with the Oil trading Roli. Doesn't Pitssburgh need some help in net? :)
yeah Andy - he referred to that and of course we can see that politics does matter - Crawford came in and wanted his man in there.
Pittsburgh is a fit - Pouliot might also be a deal sweetener but what do the Oilers receive in return?
If you really want to spice things up, the Ducks put Bryzgalov on waivers today.
When Garon is playing well he looks amazing.
But when he is playing poorly he really looks horrible.
Play the hot tender for sure. But please please please Mr Lowe, please dont trade Rolly yet. We've had sub par goaltending on YOUR team previsously and I don't want to revisit that nightmare again.
Nothing wrong with having 2 decent goaltenders at all...
I think you nailed it with the Inspector Closseau thing, Vic. Even when Roli's good, he's just all over the place. That being said, he had a poor stretch last year but he turned it around so I think he can do it again.
But I'd have no problem rooting for garon either

NFL reveals preseason schedule
New York, NY (Sports Network) - The Super Bowl XVII champion Baltimore Ravens will be involved in one of 11 games televised nationally during the NFL's 2013 preseason schedule, which was announced Thursday.
The Ravens will host the Carolina Panthers on Thursday, Aug. 22 during the third week of the preseason, when teams generally play their regulars into the third quarter.
The league had already announced last month that the Dallas Cowboys and Miami Dolphins will open up the slate in the annual Hall of Fame Game in Canton, Ohio, which will be held on Sunday, Aug. 4.
All 12 of last year's playoff participants will have one preseason contest broadcasted nationally, with three games featuring clubs that both reached the postseason in 2012.
The defending NFC champion San Francisco 49ers will host the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday, Aug. 25, with another headliner taking place two days earlier when the Seattle Seahawks visit the Green Bay Packers in the teams' first encounter since last September's controversial last-second win by the Seahawks in Seattle.
A clash between the reigning NFC South champion Atlanta Falcons and the Cincinnati Bengals at the Georgia Dome highlights the preseason's opening week, with that game to take place on Thursday, Aug. 8.
Other notable nationally televised matchups include Indianapolis visiting the New York Giants on Sunday, Aug. 18; Washington hosting Pittsburgh on Monday, Aug. 19 and Peyton Manning's Denver Broncos taking on the visiting St. Louis Rams on Saturday, Aug. 24.

Arthritis Drugs & New Medications-2001 Meeting (cont.)
Churg-Strauss Syndrome patients did equally well if treated with Cytoxan (cyclophosphamide) for 6 or for 12 months.
Dr. Shiel's Perspective: This study suggests that doctors might now be able to recommend a shorter (and, therefore, less toxic) course of Cytoxan for patients with Churg-Strauss Syndrome.
Viagra (sildenafil) seemed to help function in scleroderma patients with severe pulmonary hypertension (elevated blood pressure in the artery to the lungs).
Dr. Shiel's Perspective: Because Viagra has an effect on the smooth muscle of the blood vessels, it was tried in these very ill patients who had failed the traditional prostacyclin intravenous infusions. Although Viagra did show favorable results, these are very small preliminary studies. Incidentally, it might be expected that there would be some benefit on the Raynaud's phenomenon in patients treated with this drug, and that is exactly what the researchers saw in all patients. Further research studies are now needed to really determine the exact role and safety of Viagra in patients with scleroderma.
Erythromycin helped the stomach involvement in scleroderma patients more effectively than the bowel muscle-stimulator drug, metoclopramide.
Dr. Shiel's Perspective: Stomach and bowel muscles can become weakened as a result of scleroderma, thereby resulting in loss of normal function of the bowels. This is a serious condition. In the past, doctors have used bowel muscle-stimulating drugs, such as metoclopramide. Doctors have also used antibiotics (I use tetracycline or erythromycin). The reason for the antibiotics is that the bowel of scleroderma patients can become overgrown with bacteria, which is associated with slowing the bowel function. The antibiotics seem to improve this condition. This study is a head-to-head comparison of the two options. It is encouraging to see that common antibiotics can be beneficial in this condition.
Mouth and genital ulcers in patients with Behcet's disease healed and were reported as less frequent in 9 or 12 patients who were treated with Trental (pentoxifylline).
Dr. Shiel's Perspective: Trental also seemed to maintain the healed ulcers for up to the 29 months of the study. The effectiveness of Trental, the researchers said, seemed to be enhanced by the combination with colchicine in some patients. I felt this paper was significant because, to date, colchicine has been the mainstay of treatment of these often terribly painful sores. Now, it appears that we have other options.
Treatment of polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) that is associated with Hepatitis B with the anti-virus drug lamivudine, along with steroids and plasma exchange (plasmapheresis), can be safe and effective.
Dr. Shiel's Perspective: Traditionally, PAN that is not associated with hepatitis virus infection is treated with high doses of steroids and Cytoxan (cyclophosphamide). Cytoxan can suppress the immune system. Thus, if a patient's PAN is associated with hepatitis infection, the virus infection could worsen with Cytoxan. These researchers reported that removing immune factors in the blood with plasmapheresis combined with antivirus drug (lamivudine) can be beneficial in the situation of Hepatitis B-related PAN. This is very helpful information for doctors and those patients affected by this condition.

Honors Coursework & Classes
Students and faculty often ask, What makes an Honors course different from a course in the standard curriculum? Many times, an assumption is made that students will simply be required to do more work (read additional chapters of text, write longer papers, or answer more exam questions). This is not the case. Honors courses are not necessarily quantitatively different; rather, they are qualitatively different.
There are lots of Honors course options:
The most popular classes are the Honors Multidisciplinary Courses. They include:
HN 150: The Honors Experience
This course is required for all students in their first semester of enrollment in the Honors Program. This is an introductory course that utilizes New York City as a basis for interdisciplinary study of politics, economics, transportation, demographics, science and technology, labor, culture and the arts specific to major events or time periods in the history of this remarkable metropolis. The specific themes and eras studied vary each academic year.
HN 240: The Art and Culture of World Dance
This course explores the cultural heritage, social mores, religious influences, and history of three geographic locations through the medium of dance. A constantly developing art form, dance is shaped by the various influences around it. Yet, dance also contributes to the cultural tenor of its geographic origin. Students will study the function of dance as an art and as a lens for the society around it. Choreography and performance will also be part of this interdisciplinary course.
HN 250: The American Presidency
This course studies the careers of seven American presidents: George Washington, Andrew Jackson, Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt, Franklin Roosevelt, Lyndon Johnson, and Ronald Reagan. Using the careers of these seven presidents, students will explore the processes of decision-making as they have pertained to significant events in U.S. history. Students will be exposed to noted biographers such as David McCullough and Edmund Morris and will utilize both primary and secondary research sources as they learn to develop their own historical biographical writing skills.
HN 260: The Holocaust, Genocide, and Human Rights Movement in the 20th Century
This interdisciplinary course uses the study of the Holocaust to investigate causes and lessons of other modern genocides and the human rights movements of the 20th century. Besides readings and films, students are offered lectures, and field visits to further develop their understanding of these events in world history. Students have visited the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum as the culminating event for this course.
HN 270: Contemporary Literary Genres
This course will allow students to explore a particular genre in literature over the course of one semester. These genres could include, but are not limited to: the evolution of the vampire in fiction, genres within science fiction novels, romance novels from the 1990s, mystery and crime novels, etc. Constantly evolving, literature explores interesting and unique ideas that are inspired by particular historical eras, cultural influences, and societal movements. Students will study the literary genre with a critical eye, and learn how the genre came into existence and all the richness it encompasses.
HN314: Science and Technology: The Formation of the Modern World
The modern world represents the results of countless scientific and technological innovations and advances. In all aspects of science and technology, the goal of researchers has been to improve the quality of life. This course will study the evolution of scientific and technological progress and how it impacted (and continues to impact) the social, political, economic, and cultural characteristics of different times in history. An important objective of the course will be a review of the contributions of principal investigators who are responsible for many of the changes and advances. In addition to the fundamental scientific breakthroughs that have shaped society, attention will be given to the practical and everyday results of these advances.
HN 350: Comparative Urbanism in the 20th Century
This interdisciplinary advanced Honors course challenges the student to understand the dynamic relationship of spatial organization and the built environment to politics, economics, cultures, demographics, technology and societies. Students study the changing forms of the city over time and analyze the ways through which people have recreated urban life through time and across cultures. Each year, the cities studied will vary, but will include three that developed under differing circumstances.
Prerequisite: Junior Status
HN 450: Honors Program Research Seminar
This upper division seminar provides students enrolled in the college's Honors Program a capstone experience and is required for students on the Bachelor's level of study. Students complete assigned readings prior to the beginning of the semester to provide a common intellectual context and experience. A reflective essay based on the readings and related to the specific semester's theme is required; students will discuss the content of the readings in a coherent essay. One goal of this course is to prepare students to undertake graduate-level research. Accordingly, students will prepare a research design, literature review, annotated bibliography, and an assessment of the sources.

A 20-year-old man has been arrested after allegedly driving under the influence, hitting and killing a pedestrian walking on 95 in Pawtucket.
State Police issued a release stating that at about 4:40 am Sunday, they received a call about a man dressed in dark clothes walking in the center lane of 95 South near Smithfield Avenue in Pawtucket.
Then, they received a call that someone was lying in the first lane of the highway, just north of the Smithfield Ave. exit.
After a third caller said he had just hit some type of 'debris' in that same area, troops went to the scene and the pedestrian was pronounced dead.
Investigations determined that the pedestrian was walking in the center lane of 95 South just north of the Smithfield Ave. exit in Pawtucket and was allegedly struck by Conner Forsythe, 20, of Hope. The pedestrian was sent flying into the first lane and was struck by a second vehicle.
Reports say that Forsythe displayed obvious signs of impairment but he refused a breathalyzer test. Blood samples drawn at Rhode Island Hospital will be tested by the RI Department of Health.
Forsythe was arraigned and charged with Driving Under the Influence, Death Resulting. Bail was set at $20,000 with surety. He was also ordered to undergo alcohol counseling and his licenses was suspended.
Forsythe was also summoned with refusal to take a breathalyzer.
The victim was identified as 25-year-old Emmanuel Martinez of Academy Avenue in Providence. The victim's friends told Police they were all at a party earlier in the evening but there is no word as to why he was walking on the highway at the time.

NEW YORK Zinc alloy producers have forecast higher spot prices for 2013 due to higher contract premiums for special-high-grade (SHG) zinc, with the contract season largely drawing to a close.
One alloy producer told AMM that his company would look at moving alloy prices up by a penny going into next year. SHG contract premiums have been reported in a range of 7.5 to 8.5 cents by consumers and producers (amm.com, Nov. 14), at least a penny higher than contract....

I started going to meets, but soon realised i wasn't one of 'those' bikers. Too many ego's, too many hero's, lots of back-stabbing, lying, shit-stirring. Now, I tend to ride to dealers who will have tea vans outside, have a chat over a cuppa, pick up the odd solo rider and have a blast, but tend to keep at arms length from the whole biking scene. It suits some, not others. For me, I like riding more than I enjoy standing around flexing my bravado!

.....on here(MCN) some of the posters are good guys and girls, some of the newer crowd are just website trolls and probably don't ride.
As for real life bike meets i've found most are really good never had a bad one yet, I ride with mates whom i have known for years but just recently i've started riding with some poeple who i have met through biking and not known for long, all are friendly and quite helpfull, all with different levels of experience.
The main thing you need to have is a good sense of humour and an outgoing personality. What you need to remeber is most bikers are family people with kids and jobs to be kept so normal really, they just enjoy riding.
By the way, I'm off to France with my mates on Saturday for 5 days, we will see how the French Police behave with all the recent new laws, got my breathylizer kits (still can't work that law out????)
Get riding and enjoy

My wife is a counsellor, would you like me to make you an appointment? You are a biker but not one of 'those' bikers, whatever one of those bikers is. And you like to hang around tea vans and pick up other bikers? Is there more that you are not telling us? Do you have any buried under your patio? Try to be a bit more broad-minded mate and accept people for who they are.

get used to your bike and build up confidence on your own first as you dont want to pull into a packed bikepark and do something silly like drop your bike or parking somewhere ridiculous in front of all the men expecting you to do just that. i went out with friend a few times before i went in a group ride. but have to say the guys were all very nice and understanding and i kept the pace pretty well. i have though, pulled in to places packed with bikes and get stared at when they realise im female and you can almost feel them willing you to do something stupid. building up confidence first really helped and i dont sweat buckets any more when ride into a busy biker place.

You'll be fine. Like all meeting places in society you'll find people you like and people you don't. There are a few inflated egos at some bike meets but they are easy to spot so ignore them and gravitate to like minded folk. It won't be any more nerve wracking than walking into a full pub when you don't know anyone in there....and much like a pub there will be loads of normal, easy going people and the odd dickhead.
A good way to meet people you'll enjoy riding with is to find the forums for the make or model of bike you own, at least you'll have something to talk about.
Get out there and enjoy yourself :)

Just go you'll be fine. You will meet arseholes, but you'll also make new friends.
Somebody said don't go in case you drop your bike. Wrong ! The best place to drop a bike is where you are gonna get help.
Just be yourself don't pretend to vast experience look listen and learn.

Most bikers of today are 40,50, and 60 somethings who run a family car too and lead a steady life.
They are true gents and great company.
Most of the rude hotheads claiming to do 200mph on their Fireblades and R1s don't even own one.
Go along and enjoy yourself.
You'll be made very welcome.

It all depends on whether you bike for your own personal enjoyment or because you're one of those people who want to be 'part of something' and seek a whole new 'family' of 'biker' mates.
If you're riding for yourself and your own enjoyment, and don't really give a shit about the over-opinionated pumped up dickheads that ride a bike because they're 'hardcore(!!!)' then you'll naturally find yourself chatting to like-minded individuals and have a great time.
If you're riding because you think it's cool/hardcore/will make you appear more interesting, or any other ridiculous reason you can think of, then you are sure to meet many similarly minded big-headed people.
It's just like the car world... you've got your VW Beetle type meets, and your local boy-racer meets. Two very different things with people at the opposite end of the pole from each other. Just chill out and be yourself and you'll find your own niche

LOUISVILLE, KY. (WDRB) -- The Kentucky side of the Big Four Bridge is set to open on Thursday morning. Waterfront Development Corp. Executive Director David Karen says the bridge is ready for both walkers and cyclists.
Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer and Jeffersonville, Ind., Mayor Mike Moore are expected to take part in an informal opening ceremony on Thursday, with a more formal dedication once the Indiana side in Jeffersonville is finished.
The state of Kentucky is spending $12 million to complete its part of the ramp and renovation, with the ramp on the Indiana side costing about $10 million.
The bridge opened in 1895 and was named for the Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Louis Railway Co. The last train crossed the in the 1960s.

For Immediate Release
For more information, contact:Gloria O'Connell, 612-863-4801
MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. 09/22/2011--Aimee Blomberg and Kaelyn Grace Blomberg rested in a cushiony, inflatable tub of warm water in their room at Abbott Northwestern Hospital.
The Blomberg Family
Kaelyn was born on September 15, 2011 at 3:37 p.m. Aimee lifted the newborn out of the water and into her comforting embrace.
"I can't imagine what it would have been like without the water," said Aimee. "It was so relaxing and a huge pain management tool."
"I had no idea what it would be like, but the water definitely made labor a lot easier for her," said Sam Blomberg, who did not get into the tub but was with his wife throughout the process.
Abbott Northwestern is the first hospital within Allina Hospitals & Clinics to offer the water birth option. Abbott Northwestern has the highest birth volume in the region, delivering 4,000 babies each year.
"We have a reputation for excellent care, and we continue to support all childbirth experiences," said Debbie Biffle, RN, labor and delivery nurse, who is leading the water birth initiative at Abbott Northwestern.
Abbott Northwestern requires women to meet certain criteria to use the water birth option. They also must sign consent forms that are provided to physicians and midwives who practice at Abbott Northwestern.
The Blombergs, who are in their early twenties, live in Coon Rapids. Kaelyn is their first child. They chose to give birth at Abbott Northwestern specifically because of the birthing tubs.
"When my midwife said the tubs were available at Abbott Northwestern, I knew I wanted to deliver there even though there were other hospitals closer to where I lived," said Aimee.
Abbott Northwestern Hospital is part of Allina Hospitals & Clinics, a not-for-profit health care system of hospitals, clinics and other patient care services that provides exceptional care to communities throughout Minnesota and western Wisconsin. More information and the latest health information can be found online at allina.com.

The condo was excellent, the beach was beautiful, the pool was nice - but we are beach people and spent most of the time on the beach. Walking distance to some restaraunts made it even better. Being able to stand in the water and watch a manatee slowly swim by was priceless!

My family and I have been staying at Beach Place for years. We've been there so many times it's like coming back to our own condo. Last year we stayed in unit 207. It was wonderful. With an ocean view, we sat on the balcony in the morning watching for dolphins and having coffee and at night watching the sunset. There is a very nice pool for those who don't like the sand. The area is wonderful. Very convenient to groceries and excellent dining. The beach is so clean and beautiful. You can walk very far out into the ocean and it is usually so calm you can float on any type raft, even one from the $ store. The unit itself is perfect. 3 BR, 2 Bath, very large closets with everything in the kitchen you need. All you really need is your food and a bathing suit. Come on up,down or over to unit 207 and make it your home away from home. And trust me, you'll love the view and everything else about John's Pass and Maderia Beach. And don't forget Busch Gardens is only an hour away!

We enjoyed our stay very much. it was our second stay in that condo and the changes that were made to the unit were great since the first time we stayed. We loved the ocean view and the convenience of being able to see the pool side by our balcony. We were surprised to see the bridge still under construction as it was when we were there in 2007! The unit made us happy. The elevators could have been a bit more efficient. The family we travelled with had their first experience of the condo and Madeira Beach and loved it as well. We hope to come back soon.

I have a project I'm working on and recently imported a model from grabcad.com. Now, whenever I try and edit the project I get the message: "Cannot modify the library file *.iam Component *.iam is not checked out to you. Edits are not allowed on this file." the only solution I could find is purging the files, which I don't know how to do and it was supposedly removed in the 2013 update anyways. I also get a message "The file is being saved in a library folder. Because files in a library folder are not editable, once you save this file you will not be able to modify it. Do you wish to continue?" I have tried saving everywhere, even the C drive (which is obviously not a folder to begin with). What have I done? And how can I fix it?
Hi PR_RamFan,
Here's a very similar post at this link from just a few weeks ago, there are some suggestions that might help:
I suspect that the import destination file location is causing an issue here, you might provide more information about the file paths, including your Inventor Project path, and maybe some screen shots.
I hope this helps.
Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,
Did you find this reply helpful ? If so please use the Accept as Solution or Kudos button below.
They are both (importer and importee) saved in Public Documents, but I have tried moving them to every other place I can think of (Desktop, C Drive, flash drive, etc), Even after deleting the component that resulted in the problem, the message persisted. Unfortunately, I have made no backups that don't have the same problem. I think it's more of a Vault problem. I was creating the project unconnected to Vault and the object I imported was "claimed." I think somehow it took over my project. Does that help at all?

Crystal Clear Sound
By TSC fan
from ST CATHARINES, ON
I have had the Solo for about 6 months. I have it hooked up to my 52" in the living room. Now I can hear everything like it was meant to be heard. Even the smallest of noises are heard. Sometimes I have to put the mute on because I think the sound is from somewhere in my home. I like the fact it is easy to set up. All of my other components are hooked up to the tv so when I attached the Optical Audio cord everything now goes through the Solo. There is only 1 cord to the tv and the other cord is for the power.The remote is a bit small, but there are only 4 buttons!! Maybe a touch on/off like the wave 3 radio could be added in the future???The customer service at Bose is A-1. Thank you Bose for making my car and home sound complete :)
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

In a way, Friday involved normal training for some paratroopers at Fort Bragg, but there really was a little more to it.
"It just happens to fall on a day that is very special to us as paratroopers, the 70th anniversary of D-Day," explained Lt. Col. Thedric Moseley, the Commander of the 27th Engineer Battalion.
Members of the battalion, which is part of the XVIII Airborne Corps, conducted jump training at the Normandy drop zone – an area named after the French territory where the D-Day invasion began. Members of the 82nd Sustainment Brigade, 18th Weather Squadron and 44th Medical Brigade also jumped.
Approximately 300 paratroopers participated Friday.
Before they got in planes for a jump, the morning briefing included a short refresher on the significance of D-Day. Paratroopers jumped before dawn, clearing the way for other troops.
"Today's an opportunity to do what our airborne ancestors did, jumped into Normandy," said Departure Airfield Control Officer Sfc. Daniel Cromer. "The paratroopers jumped behind enemy lines. What the objective was, was to jump onto either flank to open up the roadways and the seaways for the ships to come in."
That still carries a sense of pride for paratroopers although many of these are so young, even their grandparents weren't old enough to serve in World War II. Today, they were encouraged to think of their connection to those who did serve.
"The soldiers who did this back in World War II, many of them were drafted, but they all volunteered to be paratroopers. Today we're all volunteers, but we still volunteer to a second time and that's to be paratroopers and exit aircraft. It is a special person that's willing to do that," Moseley said. "Had those paratroopers not done what they did we may not be here doing what we're doing today. I think about it a lot but today especially."
Paratroopers from Fort Bragg were also in France Friday. Members of the 82nd Airborne Division participated in several memorial events there including a jump.

FTC: 1 in 10 adults are fraud victims
More than 26 million Americans were scammed in 2011, falling victim to dubious offers like weight-loss products that do nothing and non-existent mortgage relief.
It seems that around just about every corner is another scam. And a recently released survey by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission shows that really is the case.
More than one in 10 adults -- some 26.5 million Americans -- were victims of fraud in 2011, the new study found.
The most likely place to become a fraud victim these days should come as no surprise. It's right here, online. Internet-based scams -- those accelerated by email, social media, online auctions and online classified ads -- topped the list.
The top 10 most commonly reported frauds and the estimated number of victims, according to the survey, include:
- Weight-loss Products (5.1 million)
- Prize Promotions (2.4 million)
- Unauthorized Billing for Buyers' Club Memberships (1.9 million)
- Unauthorized Billing for Internet Services (1.9 million)
- Work-at-Home Programs (1.8 million)
- Credit Repair Scams (1.7 million)
- Debt Relief (1.5 million)
- Credit Card Insurance (1.3 million)
- Business Opportunities (1.1 million)
- Mortgage Relief Scams (800,000)
Fraud was not an equal opportunity crime. African Americans (17.3%) and Hispanics (13.4%) were more likely than non-Hispanic whites (9%) to be victimized, the survey found. In addition, those with less than a high school education were more vulnerable as were "consumers who were more willing to take risks and those who had recently experienced a negative life event." Negative life events include such things as divorce, death of a loved one and job loss.
This is the third time the FTC has released a fraud survey report. Previous reports were issued in 2004 and 2007.
Here are some tips from the FTC about avoiding online scams:
- Be clear who you are really doing business with, and try to determine their track record of dealing with others.
- Be wary of anyone you don't know who asks you to wire money. Wire transfers are the same as using case and it's next to impossible to recover money sent that way.
- Stay on top of your monthly statements and look for charges you didn't authorize.
- Use skepticism when someone claims you can earn a lot of money in an investment that is virtually a sure-thing.
- Don't send someone money so that you can collect a prize, contest award or any other benefit that will supposedly come later.
- Never send your personal or financial information to someone, or some company, that has emailed you, even if it looks legitimate. If the request comes from an entity you do business with, contact them at a number that you have, independent of what is in the email.
