With little more than two weeks remaining until election day, local representatives of both major political parties are gearing up to go full throttle with get-out-the-vote and visibility campaigns in Mashpee.
During the past two weeks, the Enterprise has attended meetings of the Mashpee Republican Town Committee and the Mashpee Democratic Town Committee as they enter the final stretch of what seems to have been a never-ending election season.
While the two groups have markedly different political philosophies, they are both small groups comprising highly-motivated members who are ready to do what it takes to help their party's candidates, including standing at the Mashpee rotary waving at passersby, calling voters, or even donning a Big Bird costume to greet attendees at Town Meeting.
On Tuesday evening, the Republicans did not have a key to gain entrance to their usual meeting place at the Prime Center, so they spur of the moment moved the meeting down the road to an unlikely venue: Dino's Sports Bar. Amidst the noise of a crowd watching the Major League Baseball playoffs, the group recited the Pledge of Allegiance and convened its meeting, which, at the outset, included several minutes spent admonishing the Enterprise for what it deemed misdirected coverage of Senator Scott P. Brown's recent visit to Mashpee.
After it was determined that a letter to the editor would be sent to the paper, the group discussed an impressive roster of activities that it has planned for the next 17 days, including "standouts" with signage at high-traffic locations throughout town, working phone banks with peers from Hyannis to generate support for Senator Brown's reelection bid, and making sure that all potential Brown voters are identified and make it to the polls. The committee also plans on having "poll watchers" in place at the Quashnet School to ensure that it gets as many Brown voters as possible to cast ballots.
The Mashpee Republican Town Committee also places a strong emphasis on building a pipeline of talent, by actively seeking to place members of its ranks on town committees and in elected town positions. Last May, two of its own, Joan N. Oliver and Phyllis A. Sprout, were elected to the Mashpee School Committee, joining fellow committee member Scott P. McGee.
Registration Jumps Before Election
With a close presidential election and a hotly-contested Senate race, Mashpee Town Clerk Deborah F. Dami is predicting that an unprecedented 92 percent of the town's registered voters, or more than 9,200 people, will cast ballots at the Quashnet School on Tuesday, November 6.
As of yesterday, Ms. Dami reported that there are 10,620 registered voters, representing an increase of more than 500 new voters in the last year. The deadline to register to vote was Wednesday evening.
Democrats outnumber Republicans in town 2,626 to 1,721, while there are 6,195 unenrolled voters.
That breakdown has changed little over the past five years, though the percentage of Republican voters has increased slightly. The percentage of unenrolled voters has also inched upward.
Susan T. Belekewicz, a newcomer to politics who has served as chairman of the committee since last spring, said that she is working to build a strong organization and is pleased with the structure and people who are in place.
"We are very energized, but we are still Republicans in Massachusetts. The committee is doing all it can to reelect Senator Scott Brown, because he is at risk. Senator Brown is a strong, moderate candidate, but there is a possibility that he could be affected by the coattail of what is predicted to be a strong showing for President Obama in Massachusetts," Ms. Belekewicz said.
In contrast, the Democrats, who last met on October 2 at the Mashpee Public Library, seemed just as intense as the Republicans to get their candidates elected, but appeared to be a bit less riled up.
Yvonne E. Courtney, who has served as co-chairman of the committee with Margaret A. Bent since last year, said the organization has seen an increase in interest due to the candidacy of Elizabeth Warren for the United States Senate. The Democrats will be using many of the same get-out-the-vote techniques in the coming days, including standouts, canvassing neighborhoods, and working the phone banks.
"We have not been as organized as the Republicans, but we are hoping that a candidate like Elizabeth Warren will get more people involved. With Elizabeth, we know where we stand with issues affecting women and seniors. This election will also determine what the makeup of the Supreme Court could look like for years to come," Ms. Courtney said.
When asked if there was any tension between the town's Republican and Democratic groups, Ms. Belekewicz said that she feels very strongly that everybody has their right to their own opinions. "After all is said and done, we are all Americans," she said.

The Wyvern Standard extends to Europe
Safety audit specialist Wyvern has joined forces with Aviation Quality Services (AQS) to introduce a common safety standard to the European business aviation market. Wyvern is a wholly owned subsidiary of Gothenburg, Sweden-based Avinode (Stand C755), the leading online charter flight marketplace. It conducts safety audits and consults on a range of safety issues, and has become a leader in the field of providing safety information to corporate flight and travel departments, charter brokers and fractional ownership operators. In the U.S. in particular the Wyvern Standard has become a well-established indicator of safety and quality, and is a prerequisite for many corporations when it comes to chartering aircraft.
Entering into a partnership with AQS allows Wyvern to develop in the European market, where corporate safety requirements are becoming ever more stringent. AQS is part of the Lufthansa Group, and was the first IATA-accredited audit organization. Its primary focus has hitherto been on airlines, and it has audited more than 200 carriers to date. This work is conducted from primary locations at Frankfurt, Dubai, Johannesburg and, shortly, Hong Kong. With its audit experience and expertise AQS was a natural partner to bring the Wyvern Standard to Europe in the business aviation field.

1,300 dead in Syrian chemical bombing
Damascus: Syria's opposition accused President Bashar al-Assad's forces of gassing many hundreds of people - by one report as many as 1,300 - on Wednesday in what would, if confirmed, be the world's worst chemical weapons attack in decades.
Western and regional countries called for UN chemical weapons investigators - who arrived in Damascus just three days ago - to be urgently dispatched to the scene of one of the deadliest incidents of the two-year-old civil war.
Images, including some taken by freelance photographers and supplied to Reuters, showed scores of bodies including of small children, laid out on the floor of a clinic with no visible signs of injuries.
Reuters was not independently able to verify the cause of their death. The Syrian government denied that it had used chemical arms. George Sabra, one of the leading opponents of Assad, said the death toll was 1,300 killed by poison gas rained down on suburbs east of Damascus.
"Today's crimes are ... not the first time the regime has used chemical weapons. But they constitute a turning point in the regime's operations," he told a news conference in Istanbul. "This time it was for annihilation rather than terror."
An opposition monitoring group, citing figures compiled from medical clinics in the Damascus suburbs, put the death toll at 494 - 90 percent of them killed by gas, the rest by bombing and conventional arms. The rebel Syrian National Coalition said 650 people had been killed.
If the cause of death and the scale of the killing were confirmed, it would be the worst known use of chemical weapons since Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein gassed thousands of Kurds in the town of Halabja in 1988.
Activists said rockets with chemical agents hit the Damascus suburbs of Ain Tarma, Zamalka and Jobar during fierce pre-dawn bombardment by government forces. The Damascus Media Office monitoring center said 150 bodies were counted in Hammouriya, 100 in Kfar Batna, 67 in Saqba, 61 in Douma, 76 in Mouadamiya and 40 in Irbib, all suburbs of Damascus.
A nurse at Douma Emergency Collection facility, Bayan Baker, earlier told Reuters the death toll collated from medical centers was at least 213.
"Many of the casualties are women and children. They arrived with their pupils constricted, cold limbs and foam in their mouths. The doctors say these are typical symptoms of nerve gas victims," the nurse said. Exposure to sarin gas causes pupils in the eyes to shrink to pinpoint sizes and foaming at the lips.
The UN team is in Syria investigating allegations that both rebels and army forces used chemical weapons in the past, one of the main disputes in international diplomacy over Syria. The Swedish scientist leading the team, Ake Sellstrom, said the reports should be looked into, but doing so would require a request from a UN member state.
France said the mission must be sent to the site to "investigate immediately". Turkey and Saudi Arabia made similar calls. Britain said it was deeply concerned and would raise the issue at the UN Security Council, adding the attacks would be "a shocking escalation" if confirmed.
Extensive amateur video and photographs appeared on the Internet showing countless bodies, with victims choking, some of them foaming at the mouth, and no sign of outward injury. A video purportedly shot in the Kafr Batna neighborhood showed a room filled with more than 90 bodies, many of them children and a few women and elderly men. Most of the bodies appeared ashen or pale but with no visible injuries. About a dozen were wrapped in blankets.
Other footage showed doctors treating people in makeshift clinics. One video showed the bodies of a dozen people lying on the floor of a clinic, with no visible wounds. The narrator in the video said they were all members of a single family. In a corridor outside lay another five bodies.
A Syrian military officer appeared on state television and said the allegations were untrue and a sign of "hysteria and floundering" by Assad's opponents. Information Minister Omran Zoabi said the allegations were "illogical and fabricated".
The head of the opposition Syrian National Coalition said Assad's forces had carried out a massacre: "This is a chance for the (UN inspectors) to see with their own eyes this massacre and know that this regime is a criminal one," Ahmed Jarba said. The timing of the allegations - just three days after the UN experts checked in to a Damascus hotel a few kilometers to the east at the start of their mission - was surprising.
"It would be very peculiar if it was the government to do this at the exact moment the international inspectors come into the country," said Rolf Ekeus, a retired Swedish diplomat who headed a team of UN weapons inspectors in Iraq in the 1990s.
"At the least, it wouldn't be very clever."

It had to happen sometime. Dillon Gee, who was previously 7-0, dropped his first decision in 2011. While Gee's command is usually a strong suit, the righty's control was all over the place. Gee walked a career-high six batters, and lasted just four innings. It was pretty obvious from the first inning that Gee simply did not have his stuff. Even though the Mets lost the game, they still have to be pleased with one player's performance–Jason Bay. Bay went 3-3 with a triple, homerun, a walk, three RBI, and a run-scored. The Mets are now 35-38.
- Dillon Gee was abysmal for the first time this season. Gee hurled four forgettable innings, giving-up three hits, four earned-runs, six walks, while striking-out one batter. The formerly loss-less Gee now stands at 7-1.
- D.J. Carrasco didn't exactly stop the bleeding. The reliever allowed three earned-runs on four hits and two walks in two innings of work.
- Aside from Carrasco, the rest of the Mets bullpen did their jobs. Manny Acosta, Tim Byrdak, and Bobby Parnell combined for three scoreless innings.
- Justin Turner smacked his 12th double of the season.
- Angel Pagan went 1-3 with a double, walk, and two runs-scored.
- Jason Bay had his best game of 2011. The "slugger" logged a triple, homerun, single, walk, two RBI, and a run-scored. Over his past six games, Bay has posted a .416/.440/.584 line. It's possible Bay has finally found his stroke…

"The big wireless carriers always say, 'Well, it's just West Virginia and the mountains. There's nothing we can do,' and that's been the story for five years," Reed says. "I know it's expensive to build a cell tower or making other improvements, but not doing so definitely hurts West Virginia."
An important issue
The causes behind Wyoming County's cellular service problems are complex, but serve as a microcosm of what's happening in many rural areas across the U.S. For businesses trying to locate in or near such areas, acquiring cellular communications can be frustrating, expensive and confusing.
In a report issued in August 2012, the FCC stated that 19 million Americans -- about 6 percent of the total population of 320 million -- were not served by broadband. For example, FCC data indicated that almost 93 percent of Wyoming County's population was not served by a minimum of 3G wireless service. (3G is defined by the FCC (PDF) as being less than 200Kbps on downloads and 50Kbps on uploads; as a comparison, most carriers describe 4G LTE as providing 10Mbps for downloads and 4Mbps for uploads.)
And they are not the worst off. Fifteen other counties (with smaller populations) had less access to wireless service than Wyoming County, according to the FCC's data. Three counties in Alaska, Hawaii and Nebraska, each with fewer than 1,000 residents, were listed at 100 percent without 3G or faster service.
[The four largest U.S. carriers -- AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile and Verizon Wireless -- all have ambitious plans to grow their wireless networks in coming years. But do these plans include those who are currently under-served? We look at each company in our article Carrier solutions for areas without 3G/4G]
Wireless as a catalyst for economic growth
Wyoming County's Christy Laxton isn't the only one who ties the economic well-being of a location to its cellular service. The FCC and other federal officials have focused on expanding wireless service as an engine for economic growth and development.
"Cellular coverage in outlying rural areas is a big deal to a lot of companies," including branch offices of large corporations such as mining, manufacturing and even retail, says Bill Menezes, an analyst at Gartner (who spoke as an individual). "That's what's so crazy about wireless. You may have coverage for a highway or a secondary road, but in the valley there's nothing."
According to Menezes, the attitude of state and federal regulators and carriers has been, for many years, "if you live out with the moose, you have to put up with what goes along with that." However, that's changing. "Government today seems to be less about setting up communications lifelines and universal service as it was in the 1930s, and more about economic development with [wired and wireless] broadband in areas where the economy may be slow or depressed," Menezes says.
The FCC's Connect America Fund (CAF), which was created in November 2011, offers a wide set of incentives and goals for building wired and wireless networks in the most remote areas of the nation. It encourages eligible carriers -- picked through auctions and other means -- to build out those networks by providing $4.5 billion annually, through 2017. It is funded by Universal Service Fund fees paid by telecom customers via their monthly bills.

Saturday, August 29th right before dawn Mars is going to have a conjunction with M35 right before dawn. Anyone going to try to grab that and sketch? I can't as we are house hunting and not sure about the weather.
Also on September 1st and 2nd Venus will be playing tag with M44 in Cancer as well. Anyone up for that one? I think either would make a wonderful sketch of a planet with an open cluster.

Over the past semester students and faculty in the Heritage Studies program have been working on a project to honor and preserve the memory of the Lay Apostolate program at Regis College. This project has included: archival research, interviewing former participants, creating a website, and a documentary. The semester may be over, but the project continues on through the website. Participants in the program have an opportunity to share photos, stories, and memories. On the site there are stories from those who were interviewed. They tell of their journeys to places around the world, where they were able to make a difference. If you would like to join the conversation or learn more about the program check out the website : http://layapostolate.wix.com/regislayapostolate
History in the Whole
PHI reflections on holistic history and heritage.
Monday, June 16, 2014
Monday, May 12, 2014
For his Landscape and Memory class's digital humanities requirement, Courtney Fisk designed a website dedicated to a group of hometown heroes and locations close to his heart; UGK, and Port Arthur, Texas.
Courtney had this to say:
"Port Arthur, Texas is the home to many celebrities including, but not limited to, Janis Joplin, Jimmy Johnson, and Evelyn Keyes. Although they are very recognized celebrities, the local history has only chosen to focus on the contributions of those in the white or middle class community while leaving out very important facts of many people and places. This website is dedicated to the little known history of the city's historic places and its celebrities in the black community."

Pictures from the Past
As some of you may know, students from the Heritage Studies program put together an exhibit for the Carney Gallery on campus called "Following Our Path: Regis College Through Its Art". The exhibit was created to celebrate the history of Regis College, as well as the history of the Sisters of Saint Joseph of Boston. Alumnae were invited to send in pictures from their college days to further explore the history of the college. We were excited to receive pictures from students from the classes of 1967, from Ellen Szesy, and 1991, from Jodie Zinna.
Thank you to Ms. Zinna and Ms. Szesy!

Landscape Studies and the Freedom Trail: The Old State House and History in our Everyday Lives
By Benjamin Remillard, Graduate Student
One of our focuses early on in our Landscape and Memory course was the effect of studying subjects up close versus studying them from afar, taking in the surrounding area as a whole. Nowhere was this focus of observation more pertinent than during a recent class field exercise on the Freedom Trail. As the sight of the Boston Massacre, the Old State House is one of the most notable stop on the Freedom Trail. Up close, tourists are greeted by the oldest surviving public building in Boston. The structure's brick exterior, colonial windows, and Greek columns serve as a visual reminder of the architecture styles so prominently used by the colonial elite three centuries earlier. The square around the building draws visitors' eyes to the antiquated building, until they notice the skyscrapers racing upward around them. It is then that focusing on structures in their wider context becomes particularly important.
One of the most common observations people must make when walking the Freedom Trail is the merging of eras, how buildings centuries old lay next to feats of modern architecture. In some cases the two are integrated into each other, such as in the case of the Old State House. To begin with, the placement of the building in the shadows of skyscrapers might be disorienting because of how out of time the building might seem. This is no different, however, than many of the other stops along the Trail, even if many of those stops do not have dozens of floors of steel and glass hovering over them.
One of the struggles historians face is figuring out how to bridge the gap between the past and present for people not normally interested in seeing how the past continues to affect their daily lives. The Old State House is of particular interest for both History and Landscape studies because of how it is now part not only of tourists' experiences, but of native Bostonians' lives as well. Since 1904 and 1908 the MBTA has operated the Blue and Orange lines, respectively, out of the basement of the Statehouse. Between the Old State House, the surrounding buildings, the railroad beneath, and the museum operating out of the building, passersby witness a merging of technology, architecture, and history that group together 301 years of Boston heritage. With that type of cultural conglomeration in such a concentrated area it is hard to not be reminded of how the past continues to play a part in people's everyday lives.

Following our Path: Putting together the Exhibit video
Saturday, March 1, 2014
Welcome Ana!
Ana is the newest addition to the History, World Languages, and Cultural Heritage Department family. As our assistant she will be provide weekly office support to faculty and students. Welcome Ana! We look forward to working with you this semester.
My name is Ana Fernanda Hidalgo. I am eighteen years old and a freshman at Regis College. I have one sister, Gabriela. She is twenty two years old and a Boston College graduate. My parents are from Nicaragua and I am very proud of my heritage. I grew up in Nicaragua but was born in Miami, Florida. I genuinely think that the fact that I was raised in a third world country highly influenced my view on life as a whole. In other words, I know what it is like to see young kids asking for money at stop lights, I know that I am privileged to be receiving an education at this institution. When it comes to entertainment, I've always had a passion for reading and writing. Because of this, I am double majoring in English and Communications and minoring in Spanish. My dream job is to be a journalist, to inform the general public of current events and how they might be able to help. The reason I moved to Massachusetts is because I wanted a whole new experience as far as college goes. I wanted to move away from my hometown in order to become independent and grow as a person. As the department's assistant, I hope to get to know everyone at a personal level and help each faculty member to the best of my ability.

The Exhibit Opens!!!
I can not even begin to count how many events I have helped put on throughout my time here at Regis. I always forget how much planning is needed in order to make an event successful. I have watched the students from the Museum Studies Practicum for over a semester now plan the exhibit that opens today at the Carney Art Gallery here at Regis College. I just walked down to the Fine Arts Center to see the finished product and I was blown away at the professionalism taken by the students while putting this show together. I have been keeping up on the blog posts the students from the class have been putting up and it was wonderful to finally see it all put together. I don't want to give away any surprises, but I left the exhibit with a much deeper understanding of the history of this college and the legacy left by the Sisters of Saint Joseph.
I have been at Regis College for over five years now and this exhibit opened up Regis' past to me in a way I have never seen before. My favorite part of the exhibit was a poem written by Sister Lucilla Dineen, a past Academic Dean of the college. It not only represents the exhibit in its prose, but serves as a reminder that as the college continually changes over time it is important to recognize and celebrate our past. I think the students, under the guidance of Dr. Kathryn Edney, have done a fantastic job showing the community how proud we should all be to call Regis a part of our own personal history.

Can The Hunger Games be as big as Twilight?
Book fanbase
The Hunger Games young adult novels by Suzanne Collins are massive: all three hit the New York Times best seller list and have been translated into 26 different languages. Critics have queued up to praise them. On the other hand, the four Twilight books have sold 120 million compared to the Hunger Games 11 million and have an arguably even more ardent fanbase.
Winner: Twilight - so far.

Castelli Rosso Corsa Gloves
Great glove
They are difficult to remove, its worth it to not have a velco tab or what have you. Felt a little lumpy in the palm at first, but now I almost forget I have them on. It now feels wrong to ride without them.

Guards! Guards! (Discworld, #8)
"Discworld takes the classic fantasy universe through its logical, and comic evolution".
-- Cleveland Plain Dealer
--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
About the Author
Terry Pratchett is one of the worlds most popular authors. His acclaimed novels have sold more than 75 million copies worldwide. In January 2009, Queen Elizabeth II appointed Pratchett a Knight Bachelor in recognition of his services to literature. Sir Terry lives in England.
"Guards ! Guards !" is the eighth book in Terry Pratchett's hugely popular Discworld series and is the first to focus on Sam Vimes and Ankh-Morpork's City Guard. Although the City Guard was once a fine and noble profession, it has fallen developed sense of fair play and identifies with the underdog.
Things start turning around for Sam and the Watch in "Guards ! Guards !". The force sees a dramatic rise in numbers with the arrival of Carrot Ironfoundersson. Orphaned as a ba he'd always thought he was just tall for his species. His adoptive father decides it's best for Carrot to spend some time with other humans and 'manages' to secure a position for him in the Ankh-Morpork City Guard. Carrot, on his arrival, is viewed with some amazement : an actual, honest volunteer. He takes things very literally (as dwarfs tend to do), is very innocent (he wouldn't know what to do with a seamstress if one fell into his lap) and a lot of the humour comes from his utter confusion.
The problem for Sam and the Night Watch is presented headed) Supreme Grand Master, an ambitious and manipulative individual. (The remaining members are bitter, vitriolic, small-minded, jealous, resentful and a bit stupid. As a result, they're very easy to manipulate). He's devised a Machiavellian plan that will involve the removal of the Patrician (Ankh-Morpork's tyrant) and lead to the restoration of the monarchy. Unfortunately, his plan involves the controlling of a very dangerous dragon - to that end, Brother Fingers has managed to 'acquire' De Malachite's book on summoning dragons from the Unseen University's library. For some reason, it doesn't seem to bother him that the book is badly burnt.
This is the first of the Discworld books to feature Sam and the City Guard. As a result, it's a pretty good starting point if you've never read any of the other Discworld books before and want to see what you're missing. Pratchett's books are always very funny and this one gets better as it goes along. Definitely recommended.
This is the first Discworld book I read and 24 books later it is still my favorite. The plot is so twisted, and the characters well developed, its a must read! It is a fun series to read and I would recommened to everyone to read this one first. You don't have to read the series in order. Each book can stand alone although there are several "mini-series" of books in the whole series. Guards! Guards! is full of humor yet thought provoking. While you enjoy the story you also realize the point that Mr Pratchett is making about problems in our own world. So buy it now! And enjoy!

I have a test set up internally using the web access which has a few programmes installed as well as a dektop pool using three VM's on a hyper-v box. All works very well internally, but I am not able to get my head around using this externally.
I can publish the web access site, but this of course points to internal names. Will I have to skip the web access site and just give an address of a gateway server to put into mstsc from home?
Any advice or help is appreciated

Reservation Integration
As reservation volume grows with the sophistication of leisure travelers, netPark keeps pace by offering full integration with reservation websites. netPark offers clients the option to allow external reservation feeds; netPark imports this data and applies the prepaid amount to the customer's ticket expediting the close process for the cashier.
Building Partnerships One At A Time
We at netPark are always working to expand our list of reservation partners. Our clients realize the benefits of integrating these systems with netPark to ensure an accurate and quickly processed transaction.
As new reservation applications come online, we proactively seek their cooperation to become a fully integrated partner with the netPark parking revenue management system. Our goal is to make your netPark operations compatible with as many reservations systems as possible. This integration provides timely processing of your customers as well as reduced effort for your cashiers and management team.
Do You Have Your Own Reservation System?
Even if you have your own (internal) reservation system within your own website, netPark will work with you to establish the necessary protocols and feeds to seamlessly process your reservations with the same efficiency and accuracy as the industry's top sites.
Your cashiers will see instant benefits from this integration by automating the crediting of the prepaid reservation to the customer's parking transaction, speeding the ticket closing process. As with external reservation integration, you will receive a comprehensive suite of reports to track redemption and breakage.
Processing and Tracking
Because netPark is the first and only parking revenue management system to fully integrate prepaid reservations with ticket processing, we can offer a new level of efficiency to your operations. By securing reservation data feeds to netPark, cashiers can apply a reservation during the close-ticket process to instantly recognize prepaid monies and apply them to accurately calculate final charges.
Reservation Processing
The key aspect to reservation integration is recognizing not only the reservation dollars and days, but also other customer data so that this info can be reported, searched and redeemed effortlessly. Once a customer has made a reservation, this information is fed directly into the netPark application. The presence of this data in netPark allows unlimited number of uses from confirmation to tracking.
As seen above, during the close ticket process, the cashier simply need scan the barcode on the customer's prepaid reservation voucher. netPark will retrieve the reservation and then apply the prepaid amount to the parking ticket. If the customer stays longer than the number of prepaid days indicated on the reservation, netPark automatically calculates the overage and prompts the cashier to collect the balance due. This streamlined process increases your cashier productivity and reduces errors.
Reservation Redemption Tracking
- Streamlines the reservation voucher redemption process by not only allowing claim handling with reservation vendors (through redemption listing), but also permits breakage tracking as well
- Allows the comparison of reservation sources by volume and pricing to fine tune your reservation strategy either locally or nationwide
- Incorporate reservation revenue streams pre and post vendor discounting for enhanced financial reporting
Reservation Data Tracking
- Reservation Data Tracking (RDT) tool links the rate at the time the reservation was made on your website to the closing parking transaction to ensure no discrepancies when customers redeem their prepaid reservation voucher
- RDT can also track effective dates of fuel surcharges and other fees or services purchased in advance through your online reservation system
- RDT also permits reporting of rate change history to determine rate elasticity and market sensitivity to pricing

Therefore, the Admissions Committee requires that applicants procure recommendations from individuals who can best attest to these attributes.

However, the Admissions Committee understands that informing these individuals of future plans can be impossible for a variety of reasons.

text: BOONE, Iowa (May 28) – At this rate, Mike Murphy Jr. is going to have to build a bigger display case. Murphy added another Deery Brothers Summer Series trophy to his collection on Monday, lead*ing all 40 laps of the Memorial Day feature at Boone Speedway. The $2,000 IMCA Late Model tour victory, Murphy's third of the season and career fourth, came despite the best efforts of Tyler Bruening and Jeff Aikey following a trio of restarts with two laps to go. After drawing the outside row one start, the series point leader found the fast lower line and caught up to the back of the field by the 10th circuit. Both Bruening and Aikey chased Murphy into lapped traffic. Bruening pulled alongside for a cou*ple laps but was never able to get past and settled in on the leader's back bumper. Laps clicked off quickly before the three late yellows, the last two of which involved multi-car inci*dents. Aikey tried a higher after the final restart but couldn't catch Murphy or Bruening. Ray Guss Jr., winner of the Sunoco Race Fuels feature qualifier drawing, and Luke Goedert rounded out the top five. Drake Ostrom was ninth in his career first Deery feature start. Murphy is the only multiple winner through seven tour events this season. He's also the 11th differ*ent driver to win a Memorial Day feature at Boone in the last 12 years.

For Sandra Sorrell and Candace Richardson, Caterpillar was a second home. The way they made their living.
"I thought that I was going to be working there for the rest of my life," Sorrell said.
She had been laid off from Caterpillar for five months. She knew she would eventually head back to work, but today her life changed when she saw the news on Facebook.
"So I called my CAT boss and she had told me that, 'yes, you are one of the ones that's being laid off. We will send it to you in the mail,'" Sorrell recounted.
Richardson hadn't received the official word yet but she was preparing for the worst.
"I don't know for sure I'll get my papers Monday but I know they are coming," she said.
June would mark one year that she's been with the company.
"What I'm going to make on unemployment is not gonna even pay my rent, pay my electric, you know," she explained. "It may pay a couple of my bills but I'm going to have to find something else."
But for Sorrell, that something else could be school.
"I don't know how I'm going to pay for it, but I've gotta do something," she said. "I can't sit at home for the rest of my life. I have to work."
Now their toughest jobs will be finding new ones.

The zone changes under consideration are FB-SC (Form Based-Streetcar Core) zoning along 700 East at 2100 South that would allow 105-foot buildings, and FB-SE (Form Based-Streetcar Edge) zoning that would allow 45-foot heights along segments of Stringham, Simpson, Sugarmont and Wilmington avenues between 600 East and 1000 East.

A map of the proposed zone changes can be found at http://bit.ly/NLMBcq.
A public hearing before the Salt Lake City Council is scheduled for Tuesday during the council's regularly scheduled 7 p.m. meeting in room 315 at City Hall, 451 S. State.
The zoning proposal by the administration of Mayor Ralph Becker seeks to take advantage of the transportation options offered by the Sugar House Streetcar — or S line — that debuted in December.
For the most part, the Sugar House Community Council supports zone changes in the area, said Judi Short, chairwoman of the council's land-use committee. But she cautioned that the single-family homes in the area should not be encroached upon by tall buildings next door. "Forty-five feet next to a single family home is too high," she said.
Sugar House resident George Chapman said much of the rezoning proposal would be harmful for the residential neighborhood. The zoning will set the stage for "gentrification" and higher taxes, he said. That will drive out moderate- to low-income residents.
Soren Simonsen, a former city councilman who represented Sugar House, agreed that buffers should protect residential neighborhoods near high-density development. But he noted that the area surrounding the intersection of 700 East and 2100 South has long been identified as a potential high-density locale.
Part of the proposal would rezone city open space on Sugarmont Avenue to FB-SE that allows 45-foot heights. The Becker administration has labeled the land, now a community garden, as "surplus." But Simonsen said selling off open space while creating greater density is not sound planning.

Tila beads, Magatamas, and dagger beads. Can you tell me what all three of these have in common? They are all glass beads that were included in this month's Beadwork magazine challenge kit from Artbeads!
After I used ladder stitch to make a chain of Tila beads, I started working herringbone stitch using a combination of seed beads, mostly from the kit, but threw in a handful of my favorite blue iris seed beads for contrast. The richly colored Magatamas were the perfect end to my fan of herringbone stitch, and then to add some structure and support to the beaded necklace, I stitched the whole thing to the mesh chain. A leaf-adorned s-clasp from my stash made good use of the end caps and provided the perfect finish for my necklace!
I have a confession to make: since I received the necklace back from the offices of Beadwork magazine, I've worn it every single day. It's just so comfortable and easy to wear!
So what would you call this ruffled herringbone stitch necklace? We love to see your ideas!
Bead Happy,
Update: The winner chosen for this challenge was Diane Lyman, with the name Sun's Corona. Congratulations, Diane!
Sunrainbow because of the lovely colours
oola la & ha cha chat
Cleo's Fiesta
Flapper Girl
I would call it "Indian Summer"! But as I live in germany there is no way for me to win! But I wanted to share my idea anyway...
I would call this "Desert Sunset" because Cleopatra would have proudly worn it to dazzle Marc Antony or Caesar and is fit for a queen.
I would call it "Desert Sunset" because Cleopatra would have proudly worn it to dazzle Marc Antony or Casear when the sun was setting over the Nile.
Sunset on the Nile, because the rich colors and the Eygptian feel of it. Very lovely.
Aztec goddess
Immediately upon seeing the necklace, I thought of "Cleopatra" and her jewelry. I believe a fitting name would be simply one word...Cleopatra. Mrs. Shirley Belli ( I hope I am spelling her name correctly?)
Zulu Sunset. It reminds me of the African pictures my grandfather used to have from the early 1900's
i think an Indian princess would have loved to wear this, so i'm naming it "Pocahontas" :-)
Somewhere over the Rainbow
Hi, It is a beautiful necklace, I would call it Indian Summer. But I see someone used that in a post. That was the first thing that came to mind when I saw it. So looking at it again and seeing the stitch and kind of beads, I would call it "Herry Magatama" (Herry short for herringbone)
I'd call it "Nefertiti's Pride". It reminds me of the necklace on the famous bust of Nefertiti.
Copper Sands because it reminds me of a beach on Lake Michigan that we went to when I was much younger.
Amber Waves of Elegance
I loved that necklace, it is wearable daily as a dress up accessory or even with jeans. It's gorgeous!
The Emporess of the Night
I'm not entering either, but when I first saw it I did think of Cleopatra right away. I think the person who suggested Cleo's Fiesta should win. P.S. I don't know her, just think name sums it up.
sunflower necklace
I would give this name...
Tila Diva
Tila Diva...
My first thought was simply "Isis".
Native Princess
This necklace reminds me of a sunburst of color, how it spreads throughout the universe. I would name it
"Fluttering Sunbeams"
Tribal Splendor- beautiful necklace!
Egyptian Goddess is the name that comes to me
Tribal Splendor
Heather (email@example.com)
This necklace reminds me of the gorgeous sunbursts.
So I picked a name that would honor the sun
"Fluttering Sunburst"
Tilabone Collar or Bonetila Collar to underscore the materials and main stitch used in this piece.
Nat wrote, how about simply:
The colors remind me of "Indian corn" but I don't want to offend Native Americans by using the term "Indian". So I would call it "Harvest Moon" since it is perfectly circular and has autumnal coloring.
The Amber Nile Necklace
I'd name this piece "Gift from Pharoah"
I would name it Desert Dawn. The colors immediately reminded me of dawn in the desert.
Because it is exotic and the colors are lush, I would call your necklace "Ariadne". Ariadne, of mythos, was the daughter of queen Pasiphaë, daughter of Helios, the Sun-titan, and Minos, the king of Crete.
I looove it ! I think it could be " Pocahontas' choice ", don't ask me why ..
Beautiful and I love those colors - when I saw it I thought of the fall season, and so I thought of "Harvest Gold"
Morrocan nights
Reminds me of the waning days of autumn in the mountains. I can almost feel the cooling breeze. "Appalachian Beauty" is the name that comes to my mind.

The way it lays reminds me of ruffles and the colors of feathers. So I suggest Ruffled Feathers.
Beautiful necklace.
I would name it "Kachinka's Beaded Treasure" because it looks exotic, colorful and worthy.
Memories of Marrakesh
I would name this beautiful design "Earth Woman" for its colors that symbolize nature at its brilliant best , for its rays that symbolize strength and for its symmetry that symbolizes woman. It is a piece of jewelry that is perfect for all occasions and all settings.
As I saw it, I thought "INCA TREASURE"!!!
I LOVE the earlier respnse of CLEO'S FIESTA! Perfect...
I would call it "Out on a Fringe"
I'd call it " Neferteri's Pride", it looks very regal
Egyptian Queen - looks like something Cleopatra would have worn.
Neferiti's Legacy
I would name it 'Ix Chel' the lady Rainbow, Mayan goddess. This necklace would definately have been worn by a goddess. Ix Chel was an earth and moon goddess, she invented weaving and was known as the patroness of weaver and pregnant women. Being 2012 and all the talk about the Maya I think it should be named after a Mayan goddess.
for a name: Circlet of Dreams

Iris Rising (I love this type of contest - thanks).
Midnight Sun
Go Native
Going Native

Autumn Jubilee
Images of the Divine!
Nefertiti's Collar was my first thought, and I see I am not alone!
"sahara splendor" for the rich colors and beauty

Nile Romance
Because of the Egyptian feel, I choose........... Ankhesenamun's Treasure.
Tribal sunburst
Leotie, or Leota. Native American (Cherokee, I believe) for "flower of the prairie". My mother's name is Leota. She was born in Oklahoma and was named Leota because the prairie flowers were blooming and her father, being part Cherokee, loved the name. The name, Leota, fits your necklace perfectly.
Aztec Sunset
"Scheherazade" After the Persian queen and the storyteller of One Thousand and One Nights.
This is a beautiful necklace. I would call it: "Warriors Sunset"

Celtic Queen
Jeweled Ruffles
indian Blues
Along the Nile
I'd call it "Cleopatra's Confetti Collar" because along with the Egyptian flavor of the necklace, the fringe colors remind me of confetti.

Very, very nice...
I would name it 'Tarquin Romance' as it has an ancient Romanesque feel to me.
I would call this necklace Cleopatila.
It is rather long but it represents the Cleopatra style as well as the tila beads used in its composition.
Copper Shimmer Collar
Egyptian Ice because of the colors remind me of the jewelry the Egyptians wore the sparkle reminds me of ice in the winter.
I would name it Cleopatila or Cleotila.
This reflects the combination of the style which inspires Cleopatra and one of the styles of beads used.
Mayan Sunbeam
Jeweled Helios
Jeweled Helios
The Amazon's Sumari Necklace
The piece suggest power and endurance-so symbolic of the Japanese artists who forged the focal beads
I believe " Purple Splendor" says it all.
I am so reminded of the local mountains we walk in. The clear rocky part( earthy brown) in a dark rainy day( dark blue), with wild flowers ( yellows and pinks) appears before me as i see this awesome necklace.
Hi Jennifer! Love your necklace!
I am going with the first thing that popped into my head as soon as I saw it.
Indian Princess.
Luv Karen M.
(I just read through the comments below and I see a person also thought similar... however, I still think my title suits best... in my mind anyway... lol.)

Egyptian Disco Nights. yep.
Copper Canyon - the sun reflecting off of the canyon walls and the bluish shadows
bronze flame

Arbin Desert
I like "Indian Princess". that is the first thing I thought of, with the rich earth tones. I am just starting to bead and I'm a bit overwhelmed with where to start. I want to do it all now....
Cleopatra 's Nile
I would name the necklace "Catherine's Pride" because it looks, to me, like a piece that Catherine of Aragon would have worn. It's elegant simplicity and beautiful colors make this necklace a piece fit for a queen.
Regal Elegance because it is elegant and looks regal.
"DESDEMONA" (from Shakespeare's Othello) - It reminds me of exotic venetian intrigue!
What about "Chain of Thoughts" Each Tila leading to the soothing thoughts that so often come with the process of beading.
First name that came to mind was Zulu Zuki then the longer I looked the name changed to Matagascar Nights because of the lush sensual dark blue colored beads and the heat of the bronze.Cheryl
Name for this yummy necklace: Rhubarb and Bronze
I would call it "Queen of de-Tila". because I'm punny like that and it looks like something Cleopatra would have worn. beautiful work!
The herringbone pattern reminds me of flames, so I'd call it "Byzantium Fire." ("Byzantium" because of the metallic bronze/copper coloring, and it resonates with the word "Fire," plus it's a cool-sounding name.)
Burnished Gold - that sums it up for me. Love the style.
I'll go with my first thought...spikeolicious!
Abssynian Nights Collar
Wonderful names, the readers and beaders of Beading Daily are so amazing. Good Luck to everyone, I would hate to be the judge on this contest, good luck to the judges also.

Myriad of Matriarchy
I would call this Sodona at Dusk because of the peach and clay colors combined with the muted blue color. It has an artistic updated southwest style. I would love to wear this.
I would call it Jeweled Jubilee --for the combination of gorgeous jewel-toned tilas and the time frame of the Queen's Jubilee. It would be a lovely piece to wear to the celebrations!
I would call this Sedona at Dusk. It has peach and adobe colors like the mountains with a muted blue for the sky at dusk. Reminds me of a sunset there. It also has an appealing artistic updated southwestern style. I would love to win this!

Sun's corona necklace! That's what it reminds me of!
I would name this beautiful necklace "Sahra Saidi" which means "Desert Dance" in the language of Egypt. "Desert Dance" or "Desert Dancer" would be nice too!
I say call it Diva of the Nile Collar.
Love the names mentioned! Great brainstorming! I propose: AMBER BONES
I also suggest: TEQUILA TILAS
I love the texture of the combination of the chain and beads, I would name it Cleopatra Asp, as it is a killer necklace, and I believe Cleopatra would have loved to wear it.
You can't send the bead kit outside of the US because of Customs Regulations???!!! That's just silly.
Fit for the Queen's Diamond Jubilee
Native Lace
I'd call it Desert Twilight. The tila beads remind me of sunset and the blue iris beads remind me of coming nightfall. The small gold beads are the stars starting to come out.
Spirit of the Empress
Gee, I'm not the only one who thought of Egypt and Cleopatra when I saw this necklace. I also thought of the fact that you said you've been wearing it daily...with great pride, I assume.
So the first name that comes to mind is Cleopatra's Pride.
I see many variations on that theme in the responses below; I think they're all good.
Circle of Ra
I would name this beautiful necklace Inca Princess.
I would call it "DESERT ROMANCE"
It looks Egyptian. I'd call it Isis's Treasure.
I would name it Tiles Along the Nile...........

"Blue Helios"
How about "Indian Princess". It has an Indian look to me.
"Sunset Boulevard" Oh, Mr. DeMille, I'm ready now for my close up!!!
Sundance. The colors made me think of the horse I wanted so badly as a child and never got. The horse would be buckskin colored with black mane and tail. I think the breed of horse is called a buckskin which is a golden tan. Think of the color of an indian moccasin. The beads in the necklace would coordinate beautifully with this horse.
I'd call this beautiful stunner "The Rise of the Amazonians". It not only looks like ornamentation I have seen in "specials" on the people living along the Amazon,but has a rather organic feel to the piece as well. Great job designing this gorgeous piece.
like to name this stunner "The Rise of the Amazonian". It has such an organic flare to it and it looks similar to ornamentation I have seen on people living along the Amazon.
For me this lovely piece expresses "Joyus Rainbow" ! Thank you for sharing!
Cleopatra's Way
Painted Desert
(the colors are what Mother Nature created in the American Southwest)
What about Cleotila?
"Aztec Princess" because the daggers are smaller than what a goddess would wear.
Caribbean Sunset.
I would call this a "Regal Royal Collar".
I would call this "Regal Royal Collar"

Your necklace looks like it is fit for a Queen....
I would call it "Queen's Delight".....
Herringbone is one of my favorite stitches...so versatile.
Thank you for letting us perticipate in naming your work!
The exotic bead color selection immediately reminded me of the Egyptian queen. The dark beads represent the Nile that slices and meanders through the desert sands (represented by the beige/gold beads on either side of the black seed beads. The tila beads remind me of the metals the Egyptians used to make their jewelry, elegant yet simple.
Jewels of the Nile - popped into my head the moment I saw this piece.
I like "CLEOTA" as it is a smaller version of what Cleopatra would have worn.
Ring of fire
Ray of light...
Cleopatra's Saturday afternoon fun necklace
This necklace looks like something a noble Egyptian bride would treasure. I would call it Ankhesenamum after King Tutankhamun's wife. Beautiful colors of the desert and Nile; beautiful necklace.
That would be Aztecan, because of the colors. The Aztecan-indians used much of metal in their art-work
I woud name it Fit For The Princess. It's elegant, but not over the top and could be worn every day.
inca princess, i love the colors and think they would look good day or night. email@example.com
Egyptian Sunrise!
Tetilla Sunrise
I would call it "Garam Masala"...in Hindi this means Hot [spice] Mix and the colors and style of the necklace remind of India: of the deep colors you find in the spices, and the style of the jewelry. It is a very beautiful piece and I can see why you would wear it everyday...I would too!
Harvest Corona
I would call it "The Josephine Baker" as it brings to mind her rich sensuality and extraordinary courage ... it's worthy of an exotic queen.
How about Nefertari Unchained? It's such a beautiful piece!
This is a beautiful beaded necklace. I'd call it Cleopatra's collar.
Cleopatra's collar

I think it should be called "Aztec Beauty"
I would call it "Aztec Beauty.
