Workarounds for CUNYfirst Known Issues
Upon the launch of CUNYfirst, students, faculty and staff have noticed minor issues with the online system. Together with CUNY's Central Information Services team, BCTC has identified issues and are working towards having them resolved. View CUNYfirst issues and workarounds
What is CUNYfirst?
CUNYfirst stands for "Fully Integrated Resources and Services Tool." These new processes are streamlining and standardizing how everyday things are done throughout the University, from registering for classes to paying our bills. New applications are being implemented in phases to replace aging legacy systems. The entire project will establish CUNY processes well into the future.
CUNYfirst is:
- Featuring an interconnected University-wide system that effectively ties into and manages students' education and records; faculty/staff employment and benefits information; and all College business operations.
Industry Best Practices
- Putting into place systems and procedures that comply with CUNY's common goal of providing the best customer service to students, faculty, staff, and community.
Standardization without loss of identity
- Implementing common processes that can be accepted across the University, while allowing campuses to continue their unique missions.
- Making available modern systems and processes that allow each user more control and flexibility.
Accurate and timely information to better serve students, faculty, and staff
- Accessing information when we need it so we can perform our work on our timetable.
Replacement of aging computer systems
- Retiring systems that have reached their capacity and replacing them with modern educational and business systems.
Who will CUNYfirst affect?
Everyone from the students, to the faculty and staff will be positively affected by CUNYfirst, and everything from Student Administration to Human Resources and Finance Information will be upgraded. Our students' records will connect to the systems that run our businesses, as well as to the systems that keep personnel records of our faculty and staff. CUNYfirst will help the University meet its goal of providing the best customer service to our students, faculty, staff, and community
What areas will acquire these new systems?
The CUNYfirst system consists of three sections: Finance, Human Resources, and Campus Solutions. In each of these sections, new systems will change several key areas.
Human Resources
Campus Solutions
General Ledger
Several of these systems are already operational at Baruch College and other CUNY campuses, such as the Human Resources Self-Service segment, which allows faculty and staff to view and check personal information online.
As new applications are launched, everyone working at Baruch College will learn how to use the new tools needed for their function. Training will be available in classes or online.
In late March 2014, major portions of the Campus Solutions segment will go live, changing the way students register for classes, faculty enter grades online, and other processes. The new system will include a live and interactive interface, a waiting list feature and "shopping cart" functionality for class registration, and personalized daily, weekly, and monthly class schedule calendars.
Once the system is available, all Baruch College faculty, staff, and students will have access to online classes and other web-based support, as well as an on-campus Help Desk.

By: Rob Bamforth, Principal Analyst, Quocirca
Published: 8th April 2013
Copyright Quocirca © 2013
Anyone with a personal mobile phone will have seen the odd big bill, perhaps as a result of roaming or with tariffs where the bundled time, text and megabytes did not match the actual usage, or maybe just too many international calls. But most people only get stung once or twice. Once they understand the consequences of their usage, they can use less hungry data apps, perhaps get a different tariff, or switch from voice calls to text.
Or just pay, after all, tariffs are getting cheaper, bundles bigger and there's always free Wi-Fi, right?
However, as soon as you introduce business use—whether on a work-supplied device or a 'bring your own device' (BYOD)—the picture gets a little murky.
First who pays, and for what? In the recent halcyon days of all work-related mobile devices being corporate supplied on business tariffs most businesses would deal with the contract side covering all costs with some recovering from employees the cost of personal calls, if they could identify them.
Many employees would never see their individual bills and in some organisations only the finance department would have any idea, until things got really expensive. But hey, these mobile phones boosted the productivity of traders, sales and field service people so was it really a big deal? Not really, until many mobile users appeared, usage patterns changed, bills went up, budgets became tighter and organisations started to think about telecoms expense management (TEM). There are also legislative and tax issues that surround the who pays for personal usage issue.
Now with heavy data usage and employees as consumers wanting to, willing to and doing just about everything on their personally owned mobile phones and other devices, the business/personal usage line is almost impossible to draw.
These devices typically come with Wi-Fi, so that's a free option? No, it may be free in certain quarters, but according to the latest research from enterprise mobility provider iPass, almost 60% of mobile workers have had to pay $20 or more for one-time Wi-Fi access. While some mobile and internet accounts have Wi-Fi access or minutes bundles, more often than not with a disjointed cacophony of providers, limited Wi-Fi account 'roaming' and quirky logins, much Wi-Fi usage outside the office is going to be paid for in an ad hoc manner, expensed and not tracked.
Does BYOD take the issue away? Not necessarily, as it depends whether there is BYOC (contract) as well, and even here the costs do not fall clearly.
Everything appears fine if the employee wants to pay for everything—business and personal use—on their own contract and tariff.
But that may not necessarily reduce costs overall. For a start, the organisation, especially if large or multi-national, would probably have a good deal on its corporate tariff, which personal tariffs just cannot match, so employees are likely to be paying higher rates than when contributing to business contracts.
Business tariffs will also be with one provider and might link into the fixed phone system so that 'internal' or 'on net' calls would be free or very low cost. With employees bringing their own contracts it is likely that multiple operators would be involved and inter-employee calling made more expensive than otherwise.
Employees may also balk at paying for business use or having business use take them closer to their personal data usage caps—but how are they going to claim? One off claims for Wi-Fi etc. may be easy, but this is again often going under the radar from the enterprise perspective if it only shows up on expenses rather than a telecommunications budget, so not really acceptable longer term. Finally, if business use is starting to dominate then changing behaviours to limit business usage for personal cost reasons undermines the whole idea of using mobile technology to enhance productivity.
The alternative of 'employee-choice with BYOD, but employer picks up the tab' is also fraught with challenges, as personal usage could go completely unchecked incurring not only a direct cost on the monthly bill, but also the indirect cost of time spent not working. This is always a risk, but if the employer is paying for everything on a personally chosen device, could easily be a big problem.
The reality is even more complex as employees will increasingly have a clutch of devices—smartphone, tablet, laptop—each with some element of work and personal use, some of which may be corporate supplied, others not. It may not be sensible or even possible anymore for employers to lock this whole situation down, but it is necessary to understand what is going on in order to keep some control of costs.
More thoughts about mobile expense management are in this recently revised and re-published Quocirca report.
Posted: 30th April 2013 | By JOE SALADA :
I posted this comment on this article on another blog, but here it is again - I agree that the lifecycle of device procurement and lifetime is a major cost and concern to IT departments, and the solution of letting employees use thier own phones has it's own issues, but I feel it is the apps and data that need to be the main focus of IT concerning BYOD. The large MDM and MAM systems are very costly as well, but I like the trend of using various apps to provide flexability, security and affordability to IT departments. Cutting edge IT departments are even going a step further using various BYOD orientated API's like the Tigertext Tigerconnect API for HIPAA compliant texting and Dropbox integration to develop thier own apps that they give to the employees. The future for BYOD looks very interesting.
Posted: 24th July 2013 | By Nigel Davey :
BYOD & BYOC bring a range of complications that make it difficult to properly control the costs incurred through the rapid move from fixed-line communication to mobile.
For companies still in complete control of their mobiles, this might be useful: amiigo.co.uk.
Savings of up to 60% on international and roaming mobile calls are common and the average client saves 40% on the cost of these calls

Facing (3, 5, or 7): The facing is determined by the distance from the tip of the reed to where it first touches the mouthpiece. The bigger the facing number, the farther back the reed goes before actually touching the mouthpiece. Changing the facing of the mouthpiece will generally change the volume of the instrument. With a shorter facing (3), less of the reed is vibrating, so the instrument will tend to be quieter, with a longer facing (7), more of the reed is vibrating, so the instrument will tend to be louder.

Comments about Rico Royal Graftonite Soprano Saxophone Mouthpiece:
This B5 mouthpiece really brightened the sound of my soprano sax, making it freer blowing with greater volume. This mouthpiece reminded me of my experiences 30 - 40 years ago when I earned my keep using Berg Larson metal mouthpieces. For the cost this can't be beat. Now retired, it's made a good primary mouthpiece for me in small band settings for solo jazz, blues and rock improvisation, but with enough control for backing countermelodies with singers, etc.

- people in the U.S. have this name View Esther Peterseil on Whitepages
Meaning & Origins
Biblical name, borne by a Jewish captive who became the wife of the Persian king Ahasuerus. Her Hebrew name was Hadassah 'myrtle', and the form Esther is said to be a Persian translation of this, although others derive it from Persian stara 'star'. It may also be a Hebrew form of the name of the Persian goddess Ishtar. According to the book of the Bible that bears her name, Esther managed, by her perception and persuasion, to save large numbers of the Jews from the evil machinations of the royal counsellor Haman.

FBI, local police raid Outlaws clubhouse in Perkins Township
They must be republicans. IRS is next.
Ya keep on showing us pictures but ya really haven't told us anything. What are the details?
So what's the reason for the raid?
It appears that the reporter forgot the trusty pen and pad of paper but did not forget the camera.
Still no story, what a joke...
What ever happened to Hobo Hank, Peppermint Patty and Bobbie the fat Mexican?
East Side and Lake Wilmer ?
Is Jules still tripping to the West Coast ?
By the looks of things,they need to go and arrest some of the slum lords in town.Their properties look like xxit ,and you could only guess what is going on inside.The Outlaws property is at least kept up,heck even the shrubs are trimmed.
Um Dinghy Gal the Republicians are the ones looking into the IRS... Typical Uninformed Voter...
must not have found anything lollol
I'm thinking they were looking into someone who illegally changed the names on deed for the house and the corrupt officials in this county wanted it looked in to..
When you live in a county where auditors authorize fraudulent transfers of property belonging to the elderly (a matter of public record) ...... where recorders, who are required by law to make sure all filings on property are true and accurate, knowingly file fraud documents that falsely state a forged POA hidden in another county is on file in Erie County (another matter of public record) .... where a court ~ knowing property can't be sold through normal channels unless the fraud is acknowledged and the property put back into the correct owner's probate estate ~ forces the property instead to be sold at a scam sheriff sale under a fraud preliminary judicial report that falsely states there are no defects in the title ---- duh, maybe somebody SHOULD be investigating Erie County.
Fraud is a criminal offense, ya know ....... and the law also states that anybody that assists in fraud is just as guilty as the one(s) that benefit.
"corrupt officials in this county"
Good comment.

NELLIS AIR FORCE BASE, Nev. — Serbian paramilitary forces surrounded Sarajevo, Bosnia-Herzegovina, during the Bosnian conflict, bombarding the city with heavy artillery in 1992. U.S Air Force Capt. Merima White, 99th Medical Operations Squadron Family Medicine Residency resident physician, then 9 years-old, survived the conflict as a young child and attributes her experiences to who she is today.
"I grew up in [Sarajevo, Bosnia-Herzegovina] in a middle class family," White said. "I had everything I needed; a wonderful life, friends and family. One day I lost everything."
That day Serb forces fired artillery into the city and snipers targeted civilians without hesitation, aiming at schools and hospitals inhabited by the young and the elderly.
"One morning I woke up and the city was surrounded," White said. "There were people shooting at kids and families. I really didn't understand it. I could never understand why people would do that, but it happened; and this once Olympic city that was always a popular destination for travelers was reduced to shambles."
White described this era in her life as a time when each and every day was filled with uncertainty.
"You just lived in darkness awaiting the next artillery attack and insurgency," she added.
White was just a young child during the time and didn't quite know what to make of the situation. She recalls having to travel and risk a lot just to attain basic life essentials.
"I went from this life of what I considered having everything I wanted as a child to not knowing if I was going to wake up the next day," White said. "I remember running 10 miles to get water while evading snipers. We had to wait for the fog to thicken so the snipers wouldn't pick us off while trying to get food and water. Sometimes you couldn't afford to wait anymore and you would just have to go out to get food and water for you and your family."
For White, this era of her life was about surviving and helping others when she could; traits her father showcased on a daily basis. During her father's heroic acts he was injured twice.
"The first time was when we were in line to receive milk and bread because we had to shuttle food through the city as the resources were all depleted," White said. "Obviously they would figure out when the lines were forming and they would bomb the lines of kids and families waiting to get food. My father took shrapnel to his legs and was unable to walk for several months."
Despite White's fathers injuries he immediately sought to help the community as soon as he regained his health.
"As soon as he got back on his feet he was trying to deliver water to families that couldn't get out of the area to get some," White said. "The truck was bombed and he was ejected falling onto the railroad tracks resulting in a broken neck. We thought he was going to die in three to five days. Miraculously he regained sensation in his body and Doctors Without Borders' who were in the hospital at the time thought that evacuating him to the USA would give him the opportunity to walk again."
According to the Doctors Without Borders official website, the DWB is an international medical humanitarian organization created by doctors and journalists in France in 1971. The organization is committed to bringing quality medical care to people in crisis regardless of their race, religion or political affiliation.
White's family took the recommendation to heart and made preparations to evacuate the city.
"For us to get out of the city we had to go through enemy territory," White said. "The U.S. Air Force, at that time, was flying in and dropping off humanitarian aid. It was towards the tail end of the war, December 1994, and we had to get to the airport to get out of the city. The only way to do that was to get help from the United Nations."
Despite the U.N.'s willingness to help, the situation still presented very real dangers.
"We had to sign a paper that stated that if we were pulled over we would be handed over for execution," White said. "It was a scary thought because we knew that if we did get pulled over it wouldn't just be an execution. There were concentration camps and all sorts of horrific acts took place there. Thankfully we made it to the airport safe and sound and were able to board a plane. "
In 1994, White and her family traveled from Bosnia-Herzegovina to Germany, Maryland, Texas and finally to Luke Air Force Base, Ariz.
White remembers her stop in Maryland the most. During one of the scariest times of her life, she experienced kindness of strangers that she had never witnessed before.
"I will never forget the kindness of people," White said. "There were Airmen that stayed and played cards with me. I didn't speak any English and I was really scared. It was New Years Eve and I was still a kid so I was wandering the hallways with Airmen who were trying to entertain me. It was the most human kindness from strangers that I had ever seen and it really made an impact on my life."
The treatment the Airmen showed White upon her family's arrival was part of the reason she decided to join the U.S. Air Force.
"I wanted to give back to the amazing men and women who helped me and my family; and to be a part of something that great is amazing," White said.
Through her experiences, White formed her own idea of what defines a warrior.
"Living a Life of a Warrior is working to preserve our way of life," White said. "We don't just fight for ourselves but we fight for the freedom that this nation provides. To keep our warriors healthy is to keep our entire nation healthy and safe."
White now works within the Family Medicine Residency Program at Nellis where she aims to give back to the men and women of the U.S. Air Force that helped her and her family nearly two decades ago.

If you are considering pursuing a career in the architecture profession, one of the first decisions you will make will be in reference to your education. Education lays the foundation for developing the skills and knowledge to not only practice a profession, but also to protect the public's health, safety and welfare.
The national education standard for architectural degrees is a degree that has been accredited by the National Architectural Accrediting Board (NAAB). All states recognize the NAAB-accredited architectural degree for professional registration and some may only accept the NAAB-accredited degree. Students should keep this in mind as they select an architecture program to pursue their studies. Accreditation is a voluntary, non-governmental process of peer review. It requires an educational institution or program to meet certain defined standards or criteria and serves to notify parents and prospective students that a particular architecture program has met minimum educational standards for its graduates to enter professional practice.
For a list of Tennessee higher education institutions with NAAB-accredited architectural programs, see the Valuable Resources and Links page.
Besides the NAAB-accredited architectural degree, Tennessee law and rules currently allow two other educational options for professional registration: a non-accredited architectural degree of not less than four (4) years deemed substantially equivalent to a NAAB-accredited degree or which is part of an architectural curriculum toward a NAAB-accredited degree OR an architecture-related curriculum (architectural engineering or architectural engineering technology) accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET).
For further Information:
An individual must meet the minimum requirements listed below to be considered for registration and admission to the Architect Registration Examination (ARE):

Tennessee does not register by reciprocity. We register by comity, meaning that applicants must meet our minimum registration requirements in order to be considered for registration. The requirements listed below represent the minimum requirements for comity registration:

Well, it's another October PPV, and we are pulling out all the stops here, with WWE's themed Hell in a Cell. Hell in a Cell was traditionally reserved as a match to end all matches, to close feuds, and put the final nail in the coffin in matches that typically involved The Undertaker.
Now, it's a themed pay-per-view. Yay!
I have to give credit here - WWE has done a pretty decent job building up the two cell matches, and both feel like when the matches are over, the feuds are done and we are moving forward in some sort of direction. I have no idea what direction that will be, but that's part of the fun, right?
So, let's break down the show and get some predictions rolling, shall we?

Gov. Martin O'Malley announced Nov. 21 that the Maryland Transportation Authority Board has approved $50 million in its final six-year capital program to fund initial design and right-of-way acquisition for the project to replace the Gov. Harry W. Nice Memorial Bridge, which connects Charles County and King George County, Va., across the Potomac River.
"Together, with the support of local elected officials and federal partners, we are making a significant down payment on a wider, safer and more pedestrian-friendly Nice Bridge," O'Malley (D) said in a news release. "Southern Maryland residents have long waited for a new bridge, and this $50 million investment brings the new bridge one step closer to reality. There is more work to be done, but I commend the leadership of U.S. Congressman Steny Hoyer and Maryland Senator Thomas 'Mac' Middleton for working with the State to advance this crucial project."
The new four-lane bridge will be built parallel to and north of the existing bridge.
The new bridge also will have a two-way bicycle and pedestrian path. The existing bridge will be removed upon completion of the new bridge. A designated path on each shore will guide bicyclists and pedestrians to the appropriate outside shoulder along US 301.
Currently, 17,900 vehicles cross the bridge each day, with traffic projected to increase to 37,000 vehicles per day by 2030. The planning phase of the project was completed in fall 2012.
"I'm pleased Gov. O'Malley announced today $50 million in funding for design and right-of-way acquisition for the Nice Bridge replacement, which will benefit Southern Maryland residents, businesses and commuters once completed," Hoyer (D-Md. 5th) said in the release. "Improving our infrastructure and ensuring that it is safer and more user-friendly is critically important to spurring economic growth in our communities."
"I am immensely grateful for the Transportation Authority's action to allocate $50 million to the Harry Nice Bridge project," Middleton (D-Charles) said in the release. "This is one giant step in making the bridge replacement a reality. I will continue to work with the Authority to move this project forward as money becomes available and appreciate that it has been identified as their number one expansion priority."
With today's announcement, the MDTA plans to spend $56.1 million between fiscal years 2014-2019 for initial design and the purchase of right of way needed in both Maryland and Virginia for a new Nice Bridge.

1 tablespoon
vegetable oil
1 pound

2 (10.75 ounce) cans
low sodium tomato soup
2 (15 ounce) cans
kidney beans, drained
1 (15 ounce) can
black beans, drained
1/2 medium
onion, chopped
2 tablespoons
chili powder
1 teaspoon
red pepper flakes
1/2 tablespoon
garlic powder
1/2 tablespoon
ground cumin
1 pinch
ground black pepper
1 pinch
ground allspice
salt to taste
EXCELLENT! This will be a regular on my recipe rotation. I took the recommendations from many of the other comments:
- 1 can chopped tomatoes with chiles in place of one can of soup
- 1 can white beans instead of red kidney (I don't like the red ones)
- 1 can of corn (great addition and adds color!)
- 1 (4oz) can green chiles
- 1/2 can extra water
- I cooked the onion with the meat
I browned the onion and meat the night before and put measured out the spices into a bowl. In the morning, it took less than 10 minutes to throw it all together and go. My husband had 3 bowls! Thanks for the great recipe.
I liked the chili but it was a little lacking on flavor. It could be because the turkey was leftovers and not freshly made. I would make it again.

This is a great base for a slow cooker turkey chili. If you omit the red pepper flakes and replace one can of the tomato soup with a can of tomatoes with green chilis, this recipe is VERY kid friendly. When I want a more spicy version (I love spicy food!), I only add between 1/4 and 1/2 teaspoons of the red pepper flakes. An entire teaspoon simmering all day in a slow cooker will blow out your sinuses! In addition to the black beans, I also used both dark and light red kidney beans to make it more festive. This recipe is a keeper in my recipe box. Thanks!
This is great chili! I made two pots two cold days in a row! I followed the recommendations of other reviewers: I used one can of diced tomatoes with green chilis in place of one can of tomato soup. I cut the chili powder in half (it was still spicy!), added a bit of water, and added jalepenos. Yum!
I wish I could give this recipe more than 5 stars! Absolutely delicious! I took the advice of some others and only added 1 can of tomato soup, but also put in 2 cans of diced tomatoes. We like spicy food so I added some diced green chiles and a couple of chopped jalapeno peppers. My husband HATES ground turkey, but he had seconds of this chili. Thanks so much for a healthy recipe that tastes like its not!
I could seriously eat this twice a week and not get tired of it... YUMMY!!!
This is one spicy chili! I only used one can of kidney beans - 2 cans would have been overload, also used the other suggestions and used one can tomato soup and one can diced tomatoes with green chiles...added 1/2 can of water so I had no complaints on it being too thick. Also added a few sprinkles of hot sauce - not sure if that is what made it extra spicy or just the fact I added a little more than the 2 Tbsp of Chili powder. Omitted allspice and you would never know. I would have to say this is a keeper but would definitely NOT give it to my 2 1/2 year old, much to spicy! Perfect with bread, a little cheese and sour cream!
This was wonderful. I substituted 2 cans of diced tomatoes for the tomato soup. Perfect meal for a chili (haha)day.
our very first time making chili, and it came out so good! we like it SPICY so we added one habernero pepper seeded & chopped, one small can of diced jalapenos, and half a tablespoon of tobasco. i was worried at first that the jalapenos would be overkill, but all that time in the slow cooker seemed to mellow the flavors while infusing them into everything. also added diced fresh red and green bell peppers and replaced the tomato soup with diced tomatoes. our neighbors who used to run a restaurant in baja loved it! and so healthy on top of everything. this is a keeper!

This story was corrected at 9:07 a.m. April 1, 2013. An explanation is at the bottom of the story.
A woman in her 60s died at the scene of a house fire in Cheverly, said Prince George's County Fire Chief Marc Bashoor. Firefighters arrived at the two-story, single-family home in the 2400 block of 59th Place in Cheverly at around 8 a.m. Sunday.
When firefighters arrived, flames were shooting out of the windows and the roof, engulfing the house. The woman was found in an upstairs bathroom, and when carried outside, it was clear she would not live, Bashoor said, and she was pronounced dead on the scene.
The woman's name was not available.
There will be an autopsy to determine the exact cause of her death and an investigation into the fire.
Bashoor described the house as being "difficult to get in" because of a "hoarding situation."
One firefighter suffered a second-degree burn to his hand, he said.
No working smoke alarms were found in the house, Bashoor said. As is customary, the fire department will be knocking on nearby doors on Monday, he said, to remind people of the importance of smoke detectors. Monday will also mark the beginning of a new countywide program in which all 45 stations fan out into neighborhoods at the beginning of each month to remind people about smoke alarms.
The initial story incorrectly identified the person speaking on behalf of the Prince George's County Fire/EMS Department.

Soccer has arrived in America, so stop pretending it hasn't
If you follow sports and you ask the question "when will soccer arrive in America?" then you've clearly had your head in the sand for the last decade. Soccer has arrived and it's been here for a few years now. The game is already thriving as a recreational sport but it has put down very strong roots as a spectator sport in this country on both the domestic and international levels.
While some have been busy poring over labor issues facing the NBA and NFL, the domestic league for soccer, MLS, could have its highest average attendance since its inaugural season, somewhere north of 18,000 per game, putting the league on the level with the NBA and NHL. The league is set to add its nineteenth team next year, the Montreal Impact, in a newly renovated soccer-specific stadium. In 2012, 16 of the 19 teams will play in their own soccer-specific stadiums and will average crowds that are on par with typical NBA and NHL teams, and will in some cases surpass MLB crowds.
Sure, the local team, the New England Revolution, doesn't draw well but that is a complex situation as the Revs are in a transition phase on the field, have some off-the-field issues with their most diehard fans and desperately need to move to their own stadium in Somerville or Revere. In order for the game to have reached the level it currently has in the United States MLS had to build the necessary infrastructure in stadiums and implement strict league financial rules to avoid the problems that brought down NASL. Moving MLS teams out of cavernous NFL and college football stadiums is the best thing the league has done since its inception in 1995. It gave teams physical assets as well as improved the fan experience tenfold. Hopefully the Revolution can get out of Gillette sooner rather than later as that place just won't work for them long-term.
The domestic league is flourishing but that isn't the only indicator of soccer's arrival in America. The television ratings for the men's national team appearances in the 2010 World Cup were up 68% over 2006 and their game against Ghana drew higher ratings than both the NBA Finals and the World Series. The Gold Cup Final, which the USA lost 4-2 to Mexico, drew higher ratings than the Stanley Cup Finals.
When not qualifying for the World Cup or reaching the finals of the Gold Cup the national team hosts exhibition matches that bring capacity crowds around the country, selling out the likes of Soldier Field, RFK Stadium, New Meadowlands Stadium, Gillette Stadium, the Rose Bowl, Reliant Stadium, University of Phoenix Stadium, and Lincoln Financial Field. The Mexican national team and major international club teams routinely tour the United States as they know they can fill the same stadiums with capacity crowds, too.
The women's national team has grabbed the nation's attention again with a thrilling come-from-behind win over powerhouse Brazil. There is a women's professional soccer league, WPS, that has six teams and is doing ok, too. Boston's local club, the Boston Breakers, leads the league in attendance.
So the soccer haters and grey-haired sports writers who can't wrap their heads around the simplest of games can keep pretending that soccer hasn't arrived but the facts prove them wrong. Soccer is no longer the sport of the future; it's here now.

Emily Post Around the World
Welcome international etiquette enthusiasts!
Here at The Emily Post Institute, we have a little equation for etiquette. It goes like this:
Etiquette = Manners + Principles
While manners are culturally specific practices which may change over time, the principles of respect, honesty, and consideration form the basis of etiquette no matter who you are or where live. Although our headquarters are based out of Burlington, Vermont and our specialty is American etiquette, we can offer some basic advice about appropriate conduct when traveling abroad, according to these key principles.
Before you travel: Acquaint yourself with your destination
Before you begin your journey, do a bit of research to familiarize yourself with the country to which you are traveling and the main aspects of its culture. Reference books, newspapers, or Internet travel sites are all great sources to use for information on a country's history, current events, and traditional customs. When learning about the general background and statistics of a country, you may want to consider:
- Name(s) of key political figures
- National holidays and days of rest
- Form of government and what that means for the country: for example, a republic could mean a dictatorship
- National religion and alternatives
- The correct and full name of the country
It is also very important to be aware of the contemporary customs and daily practices of the country's citizens. Keep in mind that some aspects of what is considered normal behavior in the United States may be taboo in another culture. While preparing yourself for immersion in a foreign culture, you may investigate:
- Policies on alcohol and drug use
- Gender issues
- Controversial topics
- Inappropriate material
- Dress code
- Public displays of affection and personal space
Learning about a country and its customs before you visit is a mark of a conscientious traveler. It is a sign of respect toward your hosts and their culture, who will generally appreciate your efforts to adapt to their traditions while abroad.
The Emily Post Institute's International Presence
Visitors and those planning on doing business in the United States can find Emily Post Titles printed in Spanish, Polish, Russian, Korean and Japanese
Social Media
Through social media sites like our Etiquette Daily blog, The Emily Post Institute invites readers from across the globe to participate in our ongoing discussion on etiquette.
Trainings and Seminars
In the past, The Emily Post Institute has conducted seminars and etiquette trainings in several international locations, including:
- Singapore
- Vancouver, BC
- Saudi Arabia
We look forward to returning to these places, as well as extending our reach to other countries.

Patchy low cloud also remains about southwestern parts of WA in the wake of a cold front which is now slipping to the south of the Bight. Another cold front is approaching WA from the southwest. Low cloud over parts of Tasmania and southern Victoria lies within a moist southerly airstream. A deep low pressure system can be seen over the Tasman Sea well to the east of both states. The cloud band to the northeast of this low is due to a developing trough.

Hey everyone. My name is Tim.
I'm new to this forum and welding in general.
My brother and I have always been into fixing up old cars and jeeps so naturally we needed to learn to weld so we're not always paying someone else to do it for us. so back in December we decided to buy a used machine to learn with. After some research we found that we needed a generator welder because my garage and the barn on our family's farm both did not have the power to support almost any welder that we could afford.
After doing some searching online and our budget being only $1000cdn we decided on an older 1988-90ish Canox red champion generator stick welder because I read on here that they were actually made by miller.
After we got it home and watched some how to's on youtube. We got ahold of some scrap metal and some rods and started welding. I'm actually pretty good for a newbie.. my welds are strong, ok looking and the slag chips off pretty easily. I've heard that's good.
Now here's the problem. After the holidays I finally had some free time again so I went out to the garage to get some practice. when I started up the machine everything seemed fine but when I tried to strike an arc, Nothing. not even a spark. and the same when I plug anything into the receptacles. So i got on this site and started searching for a manual for my machine. I found that my machine is identical to a miller legend AEAD200LE. All the diagrams and wiring schematics in the legend's manual seem to match my machine perfectly.
In the troubleshooting it says to first check fuse f1. It was fine. Next on the list was to check the slip rings and brushes. One of the slip rings were badly blackened and the contact brush for that ring looks really worn compared to the other two. The manual says to clean the rings with 220grit or finer sand paper. Now that the rings are cleaned up it works fine again. Yay! But I still want to replace the brushes before the badly worn one causes any more problems.
I've called around to the places that this site said would be able to get me the parts that i need but everyone seems to think I'm better off buying a newer machine because nobody has the parts for this one anymore. WTF!
Please help me find these brushes and parts associated with replacing them so that i can get back to worry free learning.
Here's the digits and specs off the machine:
Its a Canox Red Champion. Identical to the Legend AEAD200le
Serial# JJ356762
Stock# 4613039
Its a 5kw. 1 phase generator/welder powered by an Onan 18hp. 2cyl. air cooled gas engine.
And the parts I need are the contact brushes and other stuff usually replaced with them. The manual that I downloaded from here calls for these part numbers.
*049 125- Brush w/spring
005 614- brush holder
I'm not sure if they come in packs of three but I need 3 springs, 3 brushes and 3 brush holders.
Please help.
Thanks in advance.

Hello all...I am new to the forum and found it through a web search for welding table designs. I like the design and completed table by KB:
The raised top is a nice touch, but I wonder if anyone has considered using an industrial "lazy susan" fixture to make a swiveling table top...some of these are rated to 1000 lbs or more, especially the pallet carousel types. I realize table tops have a tendancy to warp and sometimes we end up pounding the crap out of them, but with the proper design this might be a good idea...sort of like a large TIG positioning table...any thoughts or experience?
Thanks, Dan

Depending on the size of the table this is very doable the only thing standing in your way is cost.
I use a company called McMaster-Carr They are like Granger but have about 3 times as much product in every catagory.
Bearings and then go to Lazy susan, they show a bunch of different ones.

Great product catalog...Found a listing with specific reference to a welding table...I wonder if there is any surplus or scrap item that would serve the same purpose...something I could find in a junk yard. Price isn't too bad...I especially like the locking versions.

Or you could put the welding table on swiveling casters.
Which might be preferable 'cuz you could clamp/tack/etc things
to the top without worrying about whether the lazy-susan can
take it, or whack things with the bfh...
Btw, McMaster is great -- wonderful catalog/web pages and they
sell to anyone. For Graingers you need a business account.

A friend of mine took a swivel/bearing system from some kind of crane and stuck it under his 1000# dead flat cast welding table. It spins like butter. I'm sure he found the monster lazy susan as a surplus item and he's an extraordinary machinist. Honestly, I don't think he had to do much to mate the two, but he had a good idea and found the right part to execute it.
One of my welding "tables" is a 1" thick aluminum disk which rests on a lazy susan thingy, and I use it all the time for TIG welding smaller work. It's great to spin the table and not have to reposition my chair and or body.
I'm in the process of making a second, similar table from an old cast stand I have that has a built in swivel action to it. No bearings, but it's not like it will be spinning at any RPMs.
I'll be sure to post some pics when I get around to making it. Let's just say, "It's on the list."Maxstar 200DX

With the completion of the Cavanal Scenic Expressway, traffic on Burkle Street in Poteau has become an issue for area law enforcement.
Burkle Street at one time was a dead end residential street with little or no traffic. It has since been extended to connect with the CSE causing an increase in traffic and the need to force residential speed limits.
A electric speed monitoring device has been placed on Burkle to remind commuters to keep their speed below 25.

Gallery: Just in Time for the iPhone 4G Release, A Bamboo iPhone Case!
Were you one of those iPhone 4 crazed, sleepy-eyed people in line at the Apple store this morning? Well if you were, we've got the greenest accessory for your shiny new gadget — a bamboo iPhone case! These super-hip cases are made by Portland, Oregon- based Grove and will add a bit of spunk to anyone's new 4G — or 3G if you're planning to stay behind the times. They come in 3 flavors: plain case, a series of artist's designs, or you can even have them custom engraved however you please.
Although the greenest thing you could do is just stick with your old (now totally obsolete, for shame!) iPhone 3G or other less hip gadget, the least you could do with your new one is try to make it as green as possible. These bamboo cases from Grove are more environmentally friendly than other plastic case options, and cases in general seem to be a good idea as they minimize the likelihood that your precious iPhone will break if you drop it.
Grove cases are hand finished with natural waxes and oils, made from 100% solid bamboo which is a rapidly renewing, carbon eating plant, and to top it all off, comes in packaging that can be re-used as a picture frame! They come in a series of 3 bamboo colors and 7 detail colors.

\"I discovered a new eco-friendly i-phone case made by 100% recycled and recyclable high grade plastic: \"\"Ecoskin\"\". This product, manufactured in UK, is also antibacterial because the recycled plastic is impregnated with silver ions to reduce bacteria levels. Plus, the packaging is recycled. The company also produces recycled material pouches for phones.

finallly something eco friendly while it still looks fantastic the only questions are…how much do they cost? and where can you get them from?

Making The Chocolate
6. Roasting
Once the beans are cleaned, they are ready to begin their transformation into chocolate. Next they will be roasted in large, rotating roasting ovens, just like coffee beans. A rotating drum tosses the beans about so they will roast evenly. The producer has the option of roasting them before the shell is removed, or of removing the shell first. In general, chocolate manufacturers prefer to roast the beans before shelling them, while cocoa processors favor roasting the shelled nib; it retains more cocoa butter since cocoa butter can't migrate from the bean into the shell during the roasting process (chocolate manufacturers can always add in more cocoa butter later in the manufacturing process). Roasting the entire bean in its shell allows for more variety in the degree of roast and development of flavor (i.e., the producer can choose a light roast or a dark roast depending on the desired flavor outcome), but requires beans of a uniform size.
The beans are roasted at a wide range of temperatures and times—we have seen ranges given from less than 200° to 300°F and from 10 minutes to 2 hours, although this will varies widely based on the producers and the type of beans. Chocolatier Jacques Torres, for example, roasts his beans at 160°F for 30 minutes. The roasting is necessary for the development of the cacao flavor and aroma. It is a very critical process that must be closely monitored. If the beans are roasted at a low temperature and for a brief time, it will preserve the fruitiness of the cacao bean—you'll notice a red fruit quality in the chocolate flavor. If the beans are treated to a darker roast—higher temperatures and for a longer time—nuttier flavors will develop. It is a preference of the producer, as well as the characteristic of the bean, that dictates the roast. Each type of bean is roasted separately. After the beans are roasted, a machine called a cooler rotates the beans and circulates air to cool the hot roasted beans.
Roasting develops the color and is the second stage in the development of the chocolate flavor that began during the fermentation on the estates. It's food chemistry at its finest: the aroma of roasted cacao is made of a combination of some compounds resulting from fermentation and not involved in roasting, some compounds resulting from fermentation and increased by roasting, and some new compounds which are developed during roasting.

To be considered for admission, you must have a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.0 and complete a minimum level of preparation in the following subject areas:
If completed in high school
If completed in college
2 years of lab science; one year must be algebra-based science
*Applicants required to prove English language proficiency are exempt from the World Languages requirement.
Students with less than 40 credits must submit an official high school transcript and official SAT or ACT test scores including the Writing section.
Please note: An academic associate degree does not automatically satisfy the core subject requirements.
If taken in high school:
Four years of study are required, at least three of which must be in college-preparatory composition or literature.
NOTE: English courses taken in another country are considered equivalent to ESL unless taken in Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, or the United States.
If made up through college course work:
College course work must be at the 100 level or higher. For the composition/literature component, generally any course with an English or Writing prefix is acceptable.
Three years of study are required, at least at the level of algebra, geometry, and second-year algebra.
If made up through college coursework:
If your high school preparation in mathematics was insufficient, you must complete one of the courses listed below:
Three years of study are required in history or in any of the social sciences (e.g., anthropology, contemporary world problems, economics, geography, government, political science, psychology, sociology).
Courses in the social sciences - e.g., anthropology, economics, ethnic studies, history, philosophy, political science, psychology, sociology -will count toward the requirement.
Two years of study are required. The two years must be completed in the same language.
For purposes of admission, each quarter of language in college is considered equivalent to one year in high school. Applicants who have never studied a world language will need to complete ten quarter credits of a single world language. However, an applicant who studied a world language for one year in high school needs to complete only the second five (5) quarter credits (e.g., FREN 102) or the second three (3) semester credits of a first-year language sequence in college. Of course, you may prefer to begin with 101 to refresh your memory.
If using an exam:
Students who have not completed high school or college course work in a world language can demonstrate their proficiency using test scores.
A minimum of two years of lab science is required. One of the two years must be in an algebra-based science course.
College level transferable science courses with a lab will count toward this requirement. At least one course must be completed in an algebra-based science course with a lab experience.
One-half (0.5) year or one trimester of study is required in the fine, visual, or performing arts, to be chosen from art appreciation, band, ceramics, choir, dance, dramatics performance and production, drawing, fiber arts, graphic arts, metal design, music appreciation, music theory, orchestra, painting, photography, print making, or sculpture. Courses generally not acceptable include architecture, color guard, creative writing, drafting, drill team, fashion design, world languages, interior design, sewing, speech, web design or graphics, woodworking, and yearbook.
Two quarter credits (or 2 semester credits) chosen from any of the following subjects will satisfy the requirement:
Courses in architecture are generally not acceptable, except for those in architectural history.
