$A$ is an $n\times m$ matrix and $AA^{T}$ is a symmetric real matrix. Also, we have: $\operatorname{rank}(AA^{T})=r\stackrel{?}{=}\operatorname{rank}(A)$. Let $Q= \begin{Bmatrix} q_1,...,q_{n-r} \end{Bmatrix}$ be a basis for the Null space of $AA^{T}$. i.e. $AA^{T}q_i=0$, show that $A^{T}q_i=0$. I guess one proof can be that the Null space for $A^{T}$ is a subspace for Null space for $AA^{T}$, then the question would be why $\operatorname{rank}(A)=\operatorname{rank}(AA^{T})$?
Let $q_i$ be a null vector of $A A^\top$, i.e. $ A A^\top q_i =0 $, then $ 0 = q_i^\top A A^\top q_i = \vert\vert A^\top q_i \vert\vert_2$, and thus $q_i$ is also a null vector of $A^\top$. Thus $\mathrm{rank}(A A^\top) = \mathrm{rank}(A^\top) = \mathrm{rank}(A)$.
I like above answer; it says only what it needed. However, I tried the following. It takes a slightly different approach as it does not rely on $||A^T q_i$$||$ properties.
Let $X = Null(A)$, then $\forall x \in X, Ax = 0$. Assume that $Y = Null(A^TA)$. $\forall y \in Y, A^TAy = 0$. This implies,
If case (1) is true than we are done: $y$ is in $X$. Now
$A^TAy = 0 \implies y^TA^TA = 0^T \implies y^TA^T = 0^T$ ($A$ is non-zero) $\implies Ay = 0$. And this is same as case (1). Thus $X = Y$.
Now one can argue about their ranks.

Dear Daughters: Be You
To celebrate the International Day of the Girl, a plea to my daughters: Stay true to yourself.
The United Nations has declared October 11 as the International Day of the Girl Child. Its mission is "to help galvanize worldwide enthusiasm for goals to better girls' lives, providing an opportunity for them to show leadership and reach their full potential." To celebrate this day, I've written a letter to my daughters expressing the importance of being true to yourself.
Dear Daughters,
My beautiful girls, right now you are six and three—the stories of your life just beginning, the first few chapters already filled with people who love you, places we've explored and experiences that, unbeknownst to you, have already begun to shape your thinking and strengthen your character.
I am beyond blessed to be the mother of three children, each of you so special in your own unique way. But today, on the Day of the Girl, I write to you two. My girls. Now listen to your mother, loves.
By the time you are able to read and understand this, I hope you'll have a giant list of women in your life who have modeled what it means to be a beautiful girl. A beautiful girl is kind, hard-working, caring, curious about life, strong yet vulnerable. Today, I want to tell you about something else that makes a girl beautiful—something important.
Each of you was born with a light inside of you—the light that makes you who you are. All of your talents, all of your gifts, all of the joy and love and enthusiasm you have to give the world; your smile, your laughter, your ideas, your heart is all embodied in that light. Your light is unique to you. There is no other light in the world that looks exactly the same as yours.
So, please. Please. Don't change that light. The world needs it. Don't dim it, don't wish you had a different light, don't let yourself believe that your light isn't good enough, don't listen to anyone who tells you that you need to change. A beautiful girl shines her light, just as it is. Be you, sweet girls. Be you.
The world is a great big place with ideas and voices and images and opinions. They can inspire you or they can swallow you. Let them inspire you. Take what feels good and ignore what feels bad. Don't let anyone ever make you feel that a girl's worth lies in anything but her light. It's not her body. It's not how much she accomplishes. It's not her grades or her job or her friends or how many people like her. The most beautiful girl knows that her worth lies in the most precious thing she has to offer—being herself. Shining her light.
Looking back, I can't tell you how many times I felt awkward growing up. Sometimes I felt too loud and spirited around girls who were shy and alluring. So I shrank into uncomfortable quiet to be more like them. Lots of times I felt embarrassed for who I was and wished I could change things—things like my body or my clothes, what I was good at, what I wasn't good at. I wish I could go back and tell that girl just to be herself—that the happiest and most beautiful girls are the ones who shine their light and don't apologize or feel ashamed for who they are. I wish she knew that she was perfect just the way she was and that she could affect the world and those around her most greatly if she just believed that she didn't have to be anything but herself.
I love you both so much. I love you just the way you are. I felt your light the moment each of you was placed in my arms, and I've been blessed to see that light continue to shine as you've grown. You both are different in beautiful ways, and I cherish the things that make you unique. I just want you to value those things as much as I do. The most solid, comforting, truthful, reliable thing in this world is what's inside of you. Unlike money, you can't lose it. Unlike appearance, it doesn't fade. You were born with it. You will die with it. It's you. The you I've loved since the day I met you.
Please. Love that you. Be yourself. You will do great things just by being you.
Never forget that.
I forever celebrate you, support you and love you.

Dear Mrs. Meyer,
I just wanted to thank you for creating the Twighlight series! It is truly the BEST book series I have ever read. The way you express the story in the books makes me feel every emotion that is being explained; That is truly remarkable.
My family loves your books so much that we thought it would be fun to write our own vampire novel. It has about 4 pages to it so far...and has been sitting on the shelf for months :o) Even though there has been very little written my imagination has been working overtime! Even if our family novel is never completed, the ability to imagine ourselves as someone other than our normal human selves, to escape from the world as we know it and be someone else, it has been an amazing experience.
I am so very excited to read your new book about Bree Tanner, and I thank you for having continued working on these stories of the Cullen Vampire Family, even if it not be in any of the cullens perspective.
I have no idea were you now stand on publishing Edward's perspective, and by all means I agree that it is your choice because you are the one who dreamed these stories (of which I cannot imagine my life without), but if you do I thank you. You have made the Vampire experiences so enjoyable, and I look up to your mind to not stop, but to keep exploring htis story from many angles.
Thank you again Mrs. Meyer for writing these amazing books, I truly appreciate it.

The first step to obesity prevention is understanding and reducing your risk factors. Whether you're at risk of becoming obese, currently overweight or at a healthy weight, you can take steps to prevent unhealthy weight gain and related health problems. Not surprisingly, the steps to prevent weight gain are the same as the steps to lose weight: daily exercise, a healthy diet, and a long-term commitment to watch what you eat and drink.
We provide an evidence-based approach to understanding and reducing the incidence rates of childhood obesity. We facilitate proven interventions and capacity building, and offer technical assistance and hands-on project management to overcome obstacles that prevent access to healthy alternatives. We seek to advance policy, environmental and lifestyle changes that promote health through the prevention and reduction of obesity. These efforts ensure coordinated and effective implementations where we learn, work, play and live.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
I'm a bit more what would be considered "hardcore" once I've maxed out my Char's levels, but I'm definately a casual leveler so I'll throw in my comments on this thread (I played in Open Beta and into release on a PVP server, quit for more then a year and a half and recently returned to a different PVP server to be with friends):
I never considered joining anything but a PVP realm - I mean isn't that what games like Oblivion basically are? And you don't have to pay a monthly fee for that. I love the element of danger added by the PVP element. Just last week leveling my newly re-specced Prot Pallie in STV I was jump by a rogue at 20% and had a fun time watching his daggers ding off my armor. And then he tried again! And again!
Two weeks ago I was farming netherweb silk on my 68 frost mage preparing for my frozen shadowweave set in Terrokar when I got into a fight with a 70 arcane mage. I killed him without trouble, then camped him one rez for good measure. The ran across him 30 min later and fought again for a while.
You always remember some of the great ones. Do you remember close calls at the hands of any dungeon boss? Nope, but I remember epic battles recent and long ago. Hell, I still remember leveling my 1st mage back around xmas time just after release and being jumped by a rogue 4 levels higher then me, blinking, and turning around to burn him into the ground. Even better, I still remember wanting the ZG tiger mount horribly and having a running war with a guy in Silithus for a month since he had it on the other side and I felt it was my duty to kill him every time he got to ride it instead of me.
PVP memories stick with you, though it is harder if you don't have friends on that server.

SaintStryfe said...
who the hell has worn our Ulduar?
Damned ADD addled children, it's like they can't take any time to just enjoy things, it just must be consume new new now now.
I'd agree with you but some people like to do more than just raid all the time. New 5 mans and daily quests can keep people entertained while they aren't raiding.
Personally speaking, my guild has a lot more Ulduar to do (especially nailing hardmodes down) but when i'm not raiding, i go back to leveling an alt because i've done almost everything else there is to do at 80. (Reputations -done, Argent tournament champion with every faction done ect...)
as usual, SaintStryfe, your comments are exactly what I'm thinking. Seriously, only Ensidia (as far as I know) has downed Algalon 25, and no one has done 10 man Algalon.
For non-raiders I can kinda see what they're saying - the Argent tourney is very repetitive, but I'm sure whatever you filled your time with before 3.1 will still work now.
Most raiders don't spend all the time they are logged on raiding and frankly, I find there's very little to do while I'm not raiding.
A trend I've noticed among my guildies since WotLK is that more and more only log on a bit before raidtime so they can prepare for the raid (get/make flasks, food and repair) and log off once the raid's over. Most did the Tournament dailies while they were new and got their Crusader title (if they care about the achievements or the title at all).
But what is there to do beyond that? We saw all TBC and older 5mans while we were leveling, by now I've gone through all vanilla raids and I did the TBC ones while I was 70 (Sunwell up to and including Felmyst) and while it's still fun to go to TK, BT or some other TBC raid it's just not the same. Most bosses can just be zerged without regard for the tactics taking out a lot of the fun of actually doing that boss.
WotLK 5mans are a chore, maybe I'm just on a sucky server but it's so stupidly hard to find a group for any of the more interesting 5mans that it often isn't worth bothering with (insane fun spending 2-3hours completing a group for Oculus only to have it fall apart after 30minutes of "Additional instances cannot be loaded"). I blame the sheer lack of useful rewards for raiders (which nowadays is about everybody anyway) for much of the lack of interest, gear up in heroics, jump into Naxx10, pug Naxx25 a few times and there's no more reason to do heroics (except to maybe gear up guildies).
Battlegrounds are another pain in the ass. Class balance is so totally screwed up it's not even funny anymore. Usually the games end in a gankfest, which isn't fun whether you are on the receiving end or the dealing end, unless you're only farming HKs I suppose. That is, if you are lucky, because half the time Horde starts with a lot less players than alliance in our battlegroup (appropriately named "Misery"), usually resulting in a lost game before the numbers finally even out. But hey, we all know only arena really matters anyway, right?
So, what do we have left. Leveling alts I suppose. Besides learning the particulars of a new class this suffers from much the same problems as the mains. Finding groups for instances while leveling is nigh impossible, everybody seems to either get boosted or zerg his way to 80. You've seen most of the quests before, of course you will be going to different zones than you did the first time (right?) but there's only so many zones (or alts) you can go through before you end up doing the same quests again, and again...

Freedom, Part II, Is The Hardest
By Rob Elder
Americans are bombarded by almost too much news from Iraq. TV footage of sick babies who drank impure water. Newspaper stories about political jousting for control. Contradictions among American generals as to whether looters are to be shot on sight.
Who can make sense of it all?
I have a friend who can. He's working in Iraq, as part of the post-war rebuilding operation. I can't quote him by name, because his employers would not be happy about his candor. But I can share some of his observations.
"It would be hard to claim there is a strategy at work. Saving Iraq is definitely an ad hoc operation," my friend wrote to me and others via email. That's because, my friend says, basic political decisions weren't made in advance, in Washington: "Is the goal of reconstruction to transform Iraq into an instant free-market success, or to get the people working, the economy functioning and services restored?
"As much as the war plan was sweated over, watching the US AID folks stumble through basic political questions, which should have been asked and answered long before bombs away, is disheartening.
"The people who are here to rebuild Iraq are overwhelmingly decent, compassionate peopleinspiring, resilient, tough, smart, empathetic and for the most part, surprisingly humble.
"Yet I have a nagging sense that only a handful realize how small a window they have to succeed. The brave talk is 18 months contract, two years, four, six years, a decade-long task. But every Friday after prayers, demonstrations get bigger, and the first bulldozer still hasn't arrived.
"The feeling gnaws at me that no matter how hard they push the rock, it's a steep uphill and the mountain is too big. This was a place where (Colin) Powell's doctrine of overwhelming force could and should have been used have 10,000 pieces of rolling stock, turbines, communication dishes and a year's supply of fresh water and medicine for the whole country sitting on the border ready to roll."
Here I want to draw a clear line between what my friend is reporting from Iraq, and some conclusions I draw from it. So far it has been him talking. From now on, it's me.
First, in the overall War Against Terrorism, the battles of Baghdad and Basra and the rebuilding effort are one and the same thing. The Arab world is not going to separate them, nor will the world in general.
Before the first missiles were fired, President Bush drew a different distinction: Our quarrel was with Saddam Hussein, not the Iraqi people. This had two clear implications: We would do as little harm as possible, to Iraqi civilians, and we would help restore order, after Saddam.
From all I've read, the United States and Britain did at least fairly well at targeting the Saddam regime and the military. The job was made more complicated by the regime's tendency to use civilians as human shields. No one knows how many civilians died, but thanks to weapons technology, it was fewer than it might have been. (Try telling that, however, to a man whose wife and children were killed, whose home was destroyed, and whose workplace was obliterated.)
But on part twothe rebuilding partWashington seems to have spent considerably less thought. When the president talked repeatedly about "freedom" for Iraqis, he meant freedom from Saddam's oppression. But what good is that, so long as people are not free from looting and other forms of violence?
This week, as the violence worsened by the day, the U.S. actually began withdrawing the Third Armored Division, although that withdrawal halted Wednesday and Thursday, as American commanders promised to get more, not fewer troops on the streets.
Defense Secretary Rumsfeld rejected the word "anarchy" as a description of present conditions in Baghdad, calling it a "headline writer's word." Fine. Let him substitute any euphemism he likes. But so long as Iraqis are terrorized by lawlessness and lack the essentials of life, the distinction between terrorism and what we have done to their country will become increasingly blurred. And that is not a distinction we can afford to lose.

I have to admit it, I am a huge fan of what this brand does. OK, well I don't have the finances to purchase any of this merchandise, but that doesn't really matter to me. Just to view the spectacle that these guys produce is enough for me to enjoy and what a spectacle this is. Their incredible installation currently here at their Maison along Bond st. is as superb as their previous one. An Asian rickshaw carrying gorgeous articulated figures deliberately placed as if seeking directions and communicating their narrative is just delicious beyond words. When you are aware of the work that these guys do and what goes on beyond the scenes to get here just makes me appreciate what they do even more. The in store guys are just so incredibly helpful and nice too with every greeting said as if they really do mean it. If this isn't the way forward for the mid range and laggards brands to aspire towards then I feel we will see an awful lot of empty commercial spaces around town in the near future.

Centro Platero
The Zacatecas silversmith industry lives on in workshops at the Centro Platero, a few kilometers east of town on the road to Guadalupe at the converted 18th-century Ex-Hacienda de Bernardez. Here, young artisans produce various designs, from the traditional to the funky contemporary. To get here, it's easiest to take a taxi (around M$60).

Symphony Mediation is a high availability, rules-based, convergent collection and mediation platform that collects raw network usage data and transforms it into rich, billable business information. Symphony™ Mediation platform can accept any event/record format that the network may generate and generates rich records in any format required by OSS or BSS systems.
A key mediation objective is to shield OSS/BSS systems from changes in the Network Elements. Symphony Mediation offers the flexibility, scalability and functionality necessary to achieve this, resulting in significantly reduced time to market for new product and service offerings.
The future will be IP and Wireless data-based, but given the huge investment in existing telephony (fixed and mobile) networks, these will not disappear any time soon. Symphony™ Mediation supports interfaces and CDR formats for all of the major switch and OSS/BSS vendors as well as many others.
Sophisticated Billing Models for IP based products and services can only be implemented through the use of a sophisticated mediation system. Without flexible and scalable mediation, "usage-based" and "content-based" billing is not possible. This is because IP network elements do not generate "billing friendly" usage information. Instead, they generate large volumes of piecemeal usage information across many disparate network elements. Symphony™ Mediation enables the creation of self-contained, billable records.
By using our distributed Symphony Input Modules (SIMs) close to the network elements, Symphony™ Mediation is able to control and manage the real-time collection of vast volumes of network data. Once collected, this data is reduced down to meaningful billing information using flexible and powerful filtering, aggregation and correlation tools. This billing information can be represented in the industry standard IPDR format or any other format required.
Symphony Mediation is not tied to any single billing model. Instead, the most flexible approach possible has been taken allowing complete flexibility to implement the business rules required to support virtually any future-billing model. This provides the user with the ability to launch new products and services quickly in full support of the marketing department and regulatory requirements.
Key Features of Symphony™ Mediation:
- Full convergence (IP, Mobile & Fixed)
- Scalable
- Flexible (user-configurable record formats and business rules)
- Supports complex record structures inc. ASN-1 and TAP-3)
- Carrier-grade reliability and robustness
- File-based and real-time data collection, processing and distribution
- Full Mediation Functionality
- Duplicate data detection (down to individual events)
- Error record processing
- Real-time rating module
- User level system security
- Data integrity and audit capabilities
- Error messaging and alarming
- User-friendly GUI interface

The "Original Louie's Bar"
Built in St Louis, Missouri by the Brunswick Balke Calendar Company. It was then shipped by a wagon to Bellevue, Idaho. The bar was ordered by the Davies Family for their bar in Bellevue. They placed the bar in the Palace Club, where it remained for several years. We have photos of the bar at this location.
The bar was in storage in Hailey, Idaho where it was purchased and put in Louie's in Ketchum, Idaho in "1968". It remained at this location until the Fall of "1998". It was completely refurbished and placed at this location in "2001".

Old Version
My school hasn't updated to the 2011 version and I cannot find the link to download the older version. It is creating a bit of confusion as to what assignments we have to do. Is there somewhere I can still download the older version? I don't want to have to wait to purchase the book from the bookstore and get way behind. Merci Suzanne

Suffering death is the price that humans pay for their intelligence, yet through intelligence humans have long sought to overcome death, by means either of religion or technology. A single-celled animal such as the amoeba is in a sense immortal. While it can die, every living amoeba is many millions of years old, because it reproduces by splitting, whereas multi-celled creatures such as ourselves die of old age after a short life. Many animals suffer when they die, but probably only humans are fully aware of the meaning of death and know from early childhood that they are mortal. From the time of the ancient Egyptians, some cultures and individuals have sought partially technological solutions, but only in recent decades have fully non-supernatural alternatives become plausible.
Probably inspired by science fiction stories and the success of the frozen food industry, in the 1960s Robert C. W. Ettinger launched the cryonics movement to freeze dying human beings. The original idea was that cryopreservation could halt death for years until medical science had developed a remedy for the individual's fatal illness, at which point he or she would be thawed out, cured, and restored to a normal life.
A number of organizations set up laboratories to develop methods of cryopreservation, and a few dozen bodies were actually frozen. Ettinger and some other members of his movement began to think that future technologies could not only restore life but improve it, giving people saved by cryonics a chance to become superhuman and even possibly godlike. A number of technical problems would need to be overcome, however, especially the extensive chemical and mechanical damage caused to large, slow-cooling human bodies by the freezing process itself.
More recently, rapid progress in gene analysis and genetic engineering has led to the idea that much of an individual's character might be preserved in a sample of DNA. For example, the Center for Reproduction of Endangered Species at the San Diego Zoo has established a collection of cryopreserved animal cells. The Coriell Institute for Medical Research has established a research repository of cells from human beings with inherited diseases, and a sufficient sample is four teaspoons of blood.
Frozen DNA samples can be stored indefinitely without deterioration, and in future centuries they might be used to create a clone of the deceased individual, or the individual's genetic code could be employed in some other method of technological resurrection. However, DNA does not contain information about anything the person experienced or learned, so this approach would have to be combined with some method to preserve the individual's personality and memories.
In his 1953 novel, The City and the Stars, Arthur C. Clarke imagined that people could be archived inside an advanced computer, for technological resurrection thousands of years after their deaths. Many recent developments in computation, information storage, and cognitive science have provided both hope that this dream actually could be realized and some hint of how this could be done.
In his influential book, The Age of Spiritual Machines, computer entrepreneur Ray Kurzweil predicted that human beings and their computers will gradually merge over the next century, and that we will thereby become god-like spirits inhabiting cyberspace as well as the material universe. Specifically, Kurzweil suggests that magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or some even more advanced technique could be used to read out the neural structure of a person's brain, which then could be simulated inside a computer.
A second approach is to videotape extensive interviews, then use computer graphics and artificial intelligence technology to create a virtual human. A virtual copy of a person is called an avatar. This term traditionally refers to a manifestation of a Hindu deity, including incarnation in human form. But it is used currently in computer engineering to refer to a software embodiment of a human personality.
The most impressive project to preserve interviews digitally is Steven Spielberg's Survivors of the Shoah Visual History Foundation which has recorded interviews with over 52,000 survivors of the European Holocaust. The same effort devoted to a single individual could preserve enough to make a convincing avatar, and the needed digital library and graphics technology is progressing rapidly.
A third approach is to employ the full range of psychological tests and sociological questionnaires to archive opinions, attitudes, beliefs, and other aspects of a personality. Even a relative simple computerized database permits a kind of conversation with such a corpus of personal data, querying it for information in the form of questions and answers. Existing scientific measures of personality are designed to compare individuals along a few standard dimensions. Researchers working on personality preservation have recognized the need to develop new approaches designed to capture an individual's unique characteristics.
Thus, several rapidly developing technologies are making it possible to record aspects of a person, and it seems likely that the technology will permit recordings of increasingly higher fidelity over the coming decades. The problem then becomes how to integrate the different kinds of data (genetic, neuro-structural, audio-visual, linguistic, and social-psychological), and there is much room for debate whether even a highly advanced computer system could accomplish this.
Death is a natural phase of human existence, but it is also part of our nature to seek solutions to problems, even the most challenging ones. For thousands of years, the preferred responses to mortality depended upon belief in a supernatural realm that transcended the limitations of material existence. Science, the systematic quest for the secrets of nature, now offers the possibility of technical solutions that conceivably could obviate the need for religion.
It may prove difficult to develop the technology, either requiring many decades or ultimately succeeding only partially. If science can preserve and reanimate only portions of the human personality, then future centuries may develop a hybrid approach to death that blends the technical with the sacramental, thereby building a bridge between the natural and the supernatural.

Paris Basin (geology)
The Paris Basin is one of the major geological regions of France having developed since the Triassic on a basement formed by the Variscan orogeny. The sedimentary basin is a large sag in the craton, bordered by the Armorican Massif to the west, the Ardennes-Brabant axis to the north, the Massif des Vosges to the east, and the Massif Central to the south.[1]:252
The region usually regarded as the Paris Basin is rather smaller than the area formed by the geological structure. The former occupies the centre of the northern half of the country, excluding Eastern France. The latter extends from the hills just south of Calais to Poitiers and from Caen to the brink of the middle Rhine Valley, east of Saarbrücken.
The countryside is one of plains and plateaux of limited altitude. In the south-east and east the plain of Champagne and the Seuil de Bourgogne (Threshold of Burgundy) differential erosion of the strata has left low scarps with the dip slopes towards the centre. The varying nature of the clays, limestones and chalk gives rise to the characteristics of the regions such as Champagne Humide (Damp Champagne), Champagne Pouilleuse (poor Champagne),[2] the Pays de Caux and the Pays de Bray. Map missing
The Paris Basin is a geological basin of sedimentary rocks. It overlies geological strata disturbed by the Variscan orogeny and forms a broad shallow bowl in which successive marine deposits from throughout periods from the Triassic to the Pliocene were laid down, their extent generally diminishing with time.
To the west, the strata folded by the Variscan rise from below the more recent marine deposits in the hills of Brittany and, to the east, the Ardennes, Hunsrück and Vosges. To the south, it borders on the Massif Central and the Morvan. To the north, its strata link into those of the bed of the English Channel and south-eastern England. Other boundaries lie on ridges in more recent deposits and scarps such as the Côte d'Or (on an Alpine fault line) and the Hills of Artois which overlie the margin of London-Brabant Massif.
Oil Fields[edit]
Two large oil fields are located in the basin, one is the Chaunoy Field, the other is the Villeperdue Fied, discovered in 1982.[1]:254 The Villeperdue produces from a Middle Jurassic oolitic limestone 1850 m deep.[1]:251

- ^ Pouilleuse means 'lousy' that is, 'infested with lice' but its meaning has broadened in use to include 'down and out'. This is a region of thin, chalk soils and little surface water. The epithet indicates the extreme poverty of the region when the name was acquired.

All full-time students are required to take the Test of Adult Basic Education (TABE) and meet minimum state standards in order to earn a certificate upon completion of a technical program. This is a general admissions assessment used by technical/career schools across the state that tests levels in reading, math, and language skills. No other test can substitute for admission to Fort Myers Institute of Technology.
The TABE assessment is not required for the evening classes (Exception: Nursing Assistant and Practical Nursing).
The TABE assessment consists of four sub-tests: reading, math computation, applied mathematics, and language. It is an objective test which provides a grade level score. This score is used to determine which programs you are currently prepared to enter, or to identify areas in which you may need to improve.
If a person has an associates or bachelors degree from an accredited institution, he/she does not have to take the TABE test and may meet directly with a school counselor to discuss program options.
TABE Assessment Schedule -
Fall 2014 Learning Center & TABE Assessment schedule.
Available seats in each session are limited, so testers are advised to arrive at least 30 minutes before their preferred test session to increase their chances of getting a seat. When arriving at the school, please enter the campus at Gate 3 and proceed to Building "C" to obtain a testing ID pass. The assessment can take up to 2 hours. This is a timed test.
Please bring a photo ID and know your social security number. Please wear appropriate clothing - no shorts, tank tops, or flip flops. Cell phones, calculators and electronic devices are not permitted in the testing room and testers may bring bottled water only.
There is a $15 fee to take the TABE assessment - CASH ONLY - no bills larger than $20 will be accepted.
Please call 334-4544, ext. 354 or 358 during normal school hours which are from 8 a.m. - 3:30 p.m. for additional information.
Please click here to view the Florida Department of Education's publication: "Preparing for the TABE." For sample questions, click here
After you complete your assessment, you will meet with a counselor to review your scores and discuss enrollment options.
Students requiring remediation based on TABE results will follow this policy:
If students choose to participate in remediation:
1. Students need to register/enroll in the Applied Academics for Adult Education (learning Center) at FMIT, Cape Coral Institute of Technology, or Adult Education.
2. An individual study program will be developed.
3. Upon completion of remediation, the student will retest in the Learning Center.
4. Cell phones, pagers, or electronic devices of any type are NOT allowed in any testing session
Students will be allowed to retest without remediation ONE time, by appointment. The test may be taken no sooner than 90 days from the original test date. If the student is not successful on the retest, the student will enroll in remediation or show proof of remediation before another test will be granted.
Students that intend to register for the Foundations of Machining class are required to take the Bennett Mechanical Comprehension Test. It measures a complex set of abilities that include mechanical knowledge, spatial intelligence and mechanical reasoning. There is no charge for the test and it is administered following the TABE test schedule. The Bennett test takes 30 minutes.

A patented three-dimensional flame, LED inner glow logs molded from actual wood, and pulsating embers combine to achieve the incredibly realistic Dimplex fire. With ornate details and beautiful curved lines in a rich burnished walnut finish, the Dimplex Carlyle Electric Fireplace perfectly frames the 30-inch self-trimming electric firebox and complements any home. Also known as the Dimplex SOP-475-BW, this energy-efficient electric fireplace provides an even distribution of supplemental heat for up to 400 square feet and operates for just pennies a day.
A high-performance Purifire air filter provides relief for allergy- and asthma-sufferers while the deluxe remote control allows you to adjust the flame, set the temperature, and program the timer. Plus, the Dimplex Carlyle fireplace flame effect can be used with or without heat for year-round enjoyment.
This electric fireplace features an industry first: a comprehensive air treatment system. The Dimplex Purifire system uses a high-efficiency air filter to trap airborne particles as small as 1 micron. The Purifire air treatment system effectively filters the air of an average size room four times per hour, ridding it of mold spores, pollen, pet dander, and dust. The Dimplex Carlyle Electric Fireplace offers continuous Purifire operation at low and high speeds and can be turned on and off with the remote control.
Dimplex electric fireplaces use patented flame technology to produce a life-like flame effect. This innovative flame effect combines the appearance of realistic burning logs with the movement of a blazing fire to achieve a three-dimensional flickering flame. The hand-finished LED logs display a natural, inner glow during heat operation to resemble real burning wood.
The 30-inch self-trimming electric firebox contains three light bulbs underneath the log set that generate the pulsating ember bed and firelight flicker for the illusion of a traditional wood fire. Additionally, two 15-watt bulbs illuminate the log exterior to accentuate the incredibly realistic Dimplex flame effect.
With a digital display and user-friendly symbols, the Dimplex deluxe remote control makes operating your Carlyle fireplace heater a breeze. This digital remote control displays the current room temperature and your desired temperature. In addition to allowing you to set an ideal room temperature, the remote includes a light dimmer that controls the brightness of the interior firebox lights.
With this multi-functional remote control, you can also adjust the flame speed and Purifire settings with the touch of a button. Plus, it notifies you when the batteries need to be replaced.
The digital transmitter controls your fireplace from 50 feet away. The remote signal can pass through walls and most obstacles without directly pointing at the heater. The manual control panel located on the front of the firebox contains an initialization button that synchronizes the remote control with your Dimplex Carlyle Fireplace. Once you press the button, the remote control sends a code of 243 independent frequencies to the heater's circuit board to prevent interference with other units.
The Dimplex Carlyle Electric Fireplace produces 5,120 BTUs of supplemental heat for up to 400 square feet using a fraction of the energy consumed by gas fireplaces. With all-electric operation, this energy-efficient fireplace heater operates for just pennies a day. Simply plug the heater into a standard 120-volt household outlet and use it in place of or as a supplement to your central heating system.
In addition to reducing heating costs, the Carlyle Fireplace heater also helps protect the environment. While wood-burning fireplaces release harmful pollutants into your home and the environment, Dimplex electric fireplaces distribute heat with zero ozone emissions.
To prevent damage to your heater and to help you and your family avoid harm, the Dimplex Carlyle Fireplace is equipped the following safety enhancements:

Audio specialist, Sennheiser, may have lost some ground with the release of the highly popular Monster Beat headphones, but rest assured, when it comes to top flight quality, you can't do any better than these guys.
And now that they're collaborating with BMW Group DesignworksUSA, they've got something that should pique the interests of auto and audiophiles all over the world. Their latest work is the S1 Digital Pilot headphones, which was recently unveiled at AirVenture 2011 in Oshkosh.
The headphones comes with an inner metal band made of spring steel that makes it suitable for just about any kind of head shape it gets put in. Likewise, it also comes with two thick soft pads that allow it to be pressed firmly without making contact to the sensitive parts of the ear. These ear cups also take the shape of the sweep of a wing, hence the aviation theme of the whole product. The S1 Digital Pilot also has an ergonomic feature that allows people wearing glasses to fit the headphones comfortably without having to adjust their glasses all the time.
More details on the Sennheiser S1 Digital Pilot Headphones by BMW after the jump.
Another distinct feature of the S1 Digital Pilot is the elaborate control module that comes with a contoured grip and a streamlined interface with high-contrast icons and LED graphics that make it suitable when its dark.
Then there are the other nifty technological features of the headphones, including a NoiseGuard active noise cancellation system, mono/stereo operation, adjustable muting, and Bluetooth transmission functions.
The S1 Digital Pilot also offers wireless connection to mobile phones and an audio source with a pair of AA batteries powering the NoiseGard / digital noise cancellation system.
It's not going to the market popularity of those Monster Beats, but when it comes to aesthetics, functionality, and technological quirks, there are few headphones in the market that can rival the S1 Digital Pilot. The fact that it has imprints from BMW is the cherry on the sundae.

It's a Great Day for the Chicken Dance
Cock-a-Cock-a-Cock-a-Cock / Dustin Rowles
Trade News | November 20, 2008 | Comments ()
For the last year or so, there have been so many false starts, scares, teases, and rumors about a possible Arrested Development movie that we'd decided to stop reporting on all of them. There's only so much cinematic genitalia (cinegalia) teasing y'all can handle, I expect. So, last week when Jeffrey Tambor went on the record as saying there really was going to be an Arrested Development movie, I tabled it, reasoning that Michael Cera's recent comment that he had no knowledge of a movie nor any plans to participate in it basically evened it all out.
But then, this week, "Arrested Development's" executive producer and narrator, Ron Howard, threw some fuel into the fire when he said during a press junket that, yes, he "hopes" there will be a movie:
"I really hope we do it," Howard enthused. "The reason there's been so much back and forth is… well, for two reasons, is the business understanding coming from the studio side was not clear, so even though we were wanting to do it and said, 'Yeah, maybe we could' but things weren't defined. I think that's really come into focus in the last week or so. Mitch's full-on commitment to not only write it but direct it is something he's been wrestling with, he's been launching a TV show at the same time, so he couldn't let it really be at the forefront of his mind creatively. It is now. He seems very committed. We still don't have a script. Yeah, he's got some great ideas, and the cast seemed very excited about it and I certainly am. I'm very, very hopeful—more hopeful now than ever—that it's really going to happen."
So what does this all mean? Nothing, really. It may or may not happen. I was just tickling your cinegalia again. You'll probably get cinematic blue balls now (cineballs!). Really, it's just an excuse to do the chicken dance.

Con artist, murderer. Born Sante Louise Singhrs in July 1934 in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. The third of four children born to an East Indian father and an Irish mother, Sante Kimes was raised in foster homes and orphanages. After running wild in Los Angeles, she was adopted in seventh grade by Edwin and Mary Chambers and moved to Carson City to live with them. After her high school graduation 1952, Sante married her high school sweetheart, Lee Powers, but divorced him three months later.
After marrying yet another high school admirer, Edward Walker, in 1956, and having his child, Sante Kimes returned to Los Angeles where she turned to prostitution and theft. Soon after, she met Kenneth Kimes, a millionaire hustler who grew up in California as a migrant farm worker. They married and had a son, Kenny, who grew up learning the tricks of the trade. Sante was constantly getting arrested for theft and insurance fraud.
Sante Kimes was also running a slave trade, grabbing girls off the streets in Mexico and bringing them to her homes with promises of a big salary and a better life. Instead, she paid them nothing, kept them locked up, tortured them, and made them work constantly. After several girls escaped and went to the police, Sante was sentenced to five years in prison.
After prison, Sante ensured she never got sent back by making a practice of killing witnesses to her crimes. These murders included lawyer Elmer Golmgren, banker Sayed Bilal Ahmed, and businessman David Kazdin. When Kenny left home to attend the University of California at Santa Barbara, Sante and the elder Ken lived off-campus with him. Ken Kimes died in 1994, but Sante hid the death from their son because his will had not been updated to name her as the benefactor.
In July 1998, Sante and Kenny murdered 83-year-old socialite Irene Silverman in her Upper East Side New York apartment. Posing as renters, they gained access to the mansion, intending to tell servants that Silverman had sold Sante the apartment before leaving on a long European vacation. They were tried and convicted in 2000; Sante was sentenced to 120 in prison years and Kenny, 125. The trial for the murder of David Kazdin followed in June 2004; each received another life sentence for his murder.

Undergraduate students who would like to work in government or other public affairs areas can jump-start their careers with a master's degree from UW-Madison La Follette School of Public Affairs. The accelerated program allows an undergraduate to begin taking advanced public affairs courses during their final year of their undergraduate program. They complete the master's with one graduate year.
Eligible undergraduates at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in a variety of disciplines can receive a Bachelor of Arts or a Bachelor of Science degree after four years of study and a master's degree after the fifth graduate year. The master's degree may be the Master of Public Affairs (MPA) or the Master of International Public Affairs (MIPA).
Accelerated students have full access to the academic advising and career
placement services provided to La Follette School students.
Summer Between Senior Year and Graduate School
Fifth Year as Graduate Student
Summer Between Final Year and Graduate School
Fifth Year as Graduate Student
Both La Follette School accelerated master's degrees require 31 credits. An undergraduate may earn 7 credits toward a master's degree, and then take the next 24 credits as a graduate student.
Participating undergraduate departments are urged to count the public affairs graduate courses taken at the La Follette School in the student's final undergraduate year toward the undergraduate major. Those departments may designate on a case-by-case basis which courses would be counted.

Federal and state agencies are moving forward with the assessment and cleanup of a contaminated groundwater plume on Salt Lake City's east side that was added to the Superfund cleanup list last year.
Environmental officials will meet Thursday evening with residents concerned about groundwater contaminated by tetrachloroethylene (PCE), a man-made chemical commonly used in dry cleaning.
Find out more
Residents are invited to a meeting on Thursday at 6:30 p.m., McGillis School, 668 E. 1300 South, for answers to contamination questions. Topics will include:
Cleanup plans and time frames
Properties to be tested (with owner permission)
Impacts on property values and title listings
Resident testing sign-up.

|Post a Comment
The plume is believed to be about 300 acres in size and generally located between Guardsman Way and 1100 East downslope from the Veterans Administration Hospital. Concentrations of PCE were found to be 60 times the limit for drinking water. In high concentrations, the chemical can cause dizziness and headaches, nausea, motor difficulties and even death.
Investigators hired by the V.A. are beginning to formulate a "remedial investigation work plan" and will make a presentation and hold a question-and-answer session with residents Thursday at 6:30 p.m. at the McGillis School, 668 E. 1300 South.
The meeting is being hosted by the East Central Community Council, according to Chairwoman Esther Hunter. It is open to all Salt Lake City residents and property owners.
"We're grateful the V.A. is taking responsibility and we're fortunate they are leading the cleanup," she said.
The work plan is the first step toward more accurately defining the plume and seeking ways to mitigate its impacts, said D. Lynne Welsh, the remedial manager for the Department of Veteran's Affairs in Salt Lake City.
The V.A. has taken responsibility for the contamination and cleanup, she said. The chemical has "vapor intrusive impacts" and can seep into homes.
"PCE is a volatile compound," Welsh said. "We want to make sure it doesn't get into people's basements."
Investigators will inspect residential housing with the permission of owners or tenants, Welsh said. Residents can sign up for inspections at Thursday's meeting.
The inquiry will look at various aspects of groundwater in the area and must also take into account housing foundations. Because foundations vary from structure to structure it's important that investigators evaluate as many as possible, Welsh said.
The probe will be followed by a feasibility study that will lead eventually to a mitigation plan.
The fact that the V.A. is moving forward is good news, said Tom Daniels, remedial project manager for the Utah Department of Environmental Quality.
The state will provide support and oversight on the project, he said. "It's our job to look out for the concerns of the state and its residents," he said.
The federal Environmental Protection Agency also is involved in the project.
The contamination was discovered in the 1990s near the irrigation well for Mount Olivet Cemetery. In 2004, Salt Lake City removed a drinking-water well from service when trace amounts of PCE were discovered there.

PLAYERS: Cliff Avril
TEAMS: Detroit Lions
TEAMS: Detroit Lions
When Detroit Lions General Manager Martin Mayhew was asked about outstanding performers this offseason, Lions fans may have expected the names Fairley and Best. After all, Nick and Jahvid were first-round picks. However, the third player Mayhew listed was much less expected. Third-year defensive end Willie Young rounded out Mayhew's honor roll, making Detroit's front line even more formidable. Young made a splash as a second-year player last season, showing great speed and burst as a pass-rusher in the situational snaps he saw. Young tallied 14 tackles and three sacks, including the game-clinching one against the Cowboys with under a minute left. Fast Willie is down ten pounds from last year, and has shown improved speed and explosiveness so far in camp according to Mayhew. Then again, never underestimate the political side of football. While Young may be dazzling so far this offseason, don't forget that Detroit's star defensive end Cliff Avril hasn't been working out with the team. While Avril has been searching for a Is Avril worth the 4yr/ $42 mil he is asking for? new deal, Young has been great in training camp. Seems convenient doesn't it? I don't doubt Young's speed and length- he is 6'5" and has very good speed for a DE. However, he hasn't shown the ability to fight through blocks exceptionally well and I consider Avril far superior in the running game. Young may be doing well, but this could also be Mayhew sending a message to Avril. If Avril knows the Lions can replace him to some extent, he is more likely to sign for less. The math is simple: a great Willie Young means Avril is less valuable to the team. Cliff wants to stay in Detroit, this much he has stated several times, but he has also said he "would prefer not to play under the franchise tag," which is exactly what the Lions put on him at the beginning of this offseason. It remains to be seen whether or not this statement by Mayhew will help the team get a deal done with Avril, but the comment certainly can't hurt. In my opinion, Avril is asking for more than he is worth, and he is still relatively unproven with just one elite season under his belt. I think the Lions are smart to franchise tag him and make him earn a big contract. While the Young- Avril debate continues, don't forget about Nick Fairley and Jahvid Best. It is extremely encouraging to see Mayhew praise these two guys, as they have faced adversity this offseason. Fairley has been arrested twice and Best is returning from a concussion that some thought would end his career. Follow me on twitter @ScottPeceny

Why an ergonomic chair? Working in an office typically means a lot of time sitting in an office chair; a position that adds stress to the spine and back muscles. It's very important to avoid developing or compounding back problems, which translates into a need for an ergonomic office chair that supports the lower back and promotes good posture.

How do I choose the best ergonomic office chair for me?
There are many types of ergonomic chairs available for office use. No one type of ergonomic office chair is necessarily the best for everyone. There are important things to consider when looking for the right ergonomic office chair. These points will allow the correct fit between the individual user and his or her specific needs.
What features should you look for in a new ergonomic chair?
Chair height adjustment
An ergonomic office chair's seat height should be easily adjustable. A pneumatic adjustment lever is preferable. A seat height that ranges from approx 14" – 19" off the floor should accommodate 95% of users. This will allow you to have your feet flat on the floor, with thighs horizontal and arms even with the height of the desk.
Lumbar support adjustment
Lower back support in an ergonomic chair is very importent. The lumbar curves inward, and sitting for periods without support for this curve leads to poor posture (which flattens the natural curve) and strains the lower back. An ergonomic chair should have a lumbar adjustment (both height and depth) so each user can get the proper fit to support the curvature of the lower back.
Ergonomic chair width and tilt adjustment
Your new ergonomic chair should have width and depth adjustability to support you comfortably. Typically between 17-20 inches wide works well. The depth seat slider, from the front to back of the seat, needs to travel enough so that you can sit with your back against the backrest of the ergonomic office chair while leaving approximately 2 - 4 inches between the back of the knees and the seat of the chair. The forward or backward tilt of the seat should be adjustable to avoid a forward leaning posture.
Ergonomic Chair backrest adjustment
The seat back of your ergonomic office chair should be 12 to 19 inches wide. If the backrest is separate from the seat, it should be adjustable in height and angle. It should be able to support the natural curve of the back and feature proper support of the lumbar. Your ergonomic office chair should not have the seat and backrest together as one piece - the backrest should be adjustable in forward and back angles, with a locking mechanism to secure it from going too far backward or moving forward once you have determined the most comfortable position.
Seat and Back Construction Materials
The material of your ergonomic office chair seat and back should have adequate padding, or mesh travel to be comfortable to sit on for extended periods of time. Having a cloth fabric that breathes is much better than a harder surface.
Ergonomic Armrests
Office chair armrests should be height and width adjustable. They should allow the user's arms to rest comfortably and shoulders to be relaxed. The elbows and lower arms should rest lightly, and the forearm should not be on the armrest while typing.
Chair Swivel
Any ergonomic chair should easily rotate so you can reach different areas of your desk without straining. You should not have to press your back against the arms or side of your chair or rotate your shoulders to access locations to the side or back of your chair.
