As a charismatic superstar with a long history of greatness, and a player who has made surprisingly few appearances on posters over the years, Shannon Sharpe was a natural choice as the subject of entry #3 in our retro-style poster series. It is the old Sports Illustrated design of the 1970s and '80s, harkening back to a simpler time, when colorful characters like Shannon ruled the league, and posters like this filled the walls of sports fans across America. As with the great SI posters of the past, this brilliant poster features the perfect photographic image of the player - in this case, it is the historic shot of Shannon's clutch 14-yard reception in the first quarter of Super Bowl XXXIII against Atlanta, which put the Broncos on the one yard line and set up his team's first touchdown. With a sharp, simple design and frantic Super Bowl intensity, this is the ultimate addition to your football wall-of-fame! Don't miss your opportunity to own this beauty - published exclusively for SportsPosterWarehouse.com, a limited quantity remains in our warehouse.

Just recieved my case of ten blades from a vendor on eBay. Cost 35 bucks each and I was very pleased with the $$. However after looking one over good is says on the blade 1/4 max material thickness. I have a new Evolution chop saw (cold saw for lack of a better description). I understand that the saw can cut 2" thick flats. Have I purchased the wrong blades?

On the fringes of the radar today, here are some topics likely to generate discussion and controversy next year.
Although Georgia eventually wants to join the European Union, it must first confront its large population of internally displaced persons and high rates of emigration. MPI's Joanne van Selm takes a detailed look at a country in transition.
Asia's tsunami will have an enduring impact on diaspora groups and immigration policy, write Frank Laczko and Elizabeth Collett of the IOM.
David Seddon of the University of East Anglia explains why so many Nepalis have migrated and why the government was slow to realize migration's benefits.
Young-bum Park of Hansung University outlines South Korea's response to temporary labor demands and its approach to integrating North Korean refugees.
This report draws from the existing body of knowledge surrounding circular migration to identify: research gaps, shortcomings of common policy routes, innovative circular migration policies, and critical considerations for policymakers seeking to design and implement positive circular migration schemes.
For an increasing number of scholars, international migration has undergone a transformation particularly in the last decade or so. Although circular migration's impact on development is far from settled, a review of the current literature suggests increasing optimism about its developmental potential.
Previously confined to everyday conversations among migrants and their families, remittances are now on the minds of most governments, members of civil society, the international community, and, to some extent, the private sector. The continued deficiency in our understanding of some of the fundamental aspects of remittances is evident in current literature.
This report seeks to bring new light to the issues of migration by sea—particularly the interception and rescue of "boat people"—by synthesizing key discussion takeaways from an international forum of policymakers, international organizations, NGO representatives, and academics.
This report looks at what, over time, has determined the various departmental or ministerial locations of migration policy decision-making in different states.
This report analyzes the impact of established diaspora on the reduction of poverty in their countries of origin. It examines their contributions beyond individual remittances, in the dimensions of foreign direct investment, market development, technology transfer, philanthropy, tourism, political contributions, and the more intangible flows of knowledge, new attitudes, and cultural influence.
Although the relationship between migration and development has been widely discussed and debated for more than 30 years, a number of unanswered questions and unsettled debates remain. On April 11 and 12, 2003, the Migration Policy Institute sought to advance the dialogue. This report summarizes the key talking points of the high level meeting and offers some key summary remarks.

The following are several pics of some welding projects I recently completed. I am largely self taught with the most time on MIG welding. TIG and Stick have only been recently.
These were all done with metal I scrounged or had on hand.
This is a welding table.......was all MIG welded except for several small welds that I TIG welded after I ran out of gas for the MIG.
The last is a vice stand I made for use outside. Two of my three welding tables have a receiver style for the vice and I built this to take advantage of this. All MIG welded.

Some welding projects....looking for opinions part 2 !!!
The table looks fine but the vice stand I have a proplem with. If the vice is extended with weight in it, it will be subject to tipping. Also I would have put the vice bar in line with one of the legs which I think should be longer.Nick

Hi, RAH.
I looked at both posts.
I think you did a good job welding/painting, etc.
Everybody finishes a project and thinks "now, how could I improve that?", so there will always be opinions on how to do better.
Both of these look like fun projects and I'm sure you learned from each.
Keep posting and keep welding!Burt

But as he observed a slew of unforeseen updates regarding a contentious trial verdict, the president of the local NAACP chapter said he felt nothing less than a slap in the face.
"A verdict like this shows nothing has changed too much from the 1950s," Jackson said Monday. "The local black community is outraged. We're stunned. And we have a right to be."
This past weekend, a jury acquitted a Florida neighborhood watch volunteer of all charges against him in the killing of a teenager this past year. He could have been convicted of second-degree murder or manslaughter.
The man, George Zimmerman, shot an unarmed 17-year-old, Trayvon Martin, in what he claimed was an act of self-defense. Others claimed Zimmerman, who identifies himself as Hispanic, racially profiled Martin, a black teen who was walking home from a convenience store on a rainy February night.
A jury of six deliberated for more than 15 hours and determined Saturday that Zimmerman's claims were justified. The polarizing decision has ignited passionate responses nationwide regarding racial profiling, state gun laws and what constitutes self-defense.
Some have said the case isn't a race issue, but to Jackson, the situation's racial implications are impossible to ignore.
"Try to imagine the situation reversed, if a black man shot a white teenager on his way home in his neighborhood," Jackson said. "There would be outrage among everyone. What it comes down to is the question: 'Is racism dead in America?' Obviously it's not."
The NAACP has called for the U.S. Department of Justice to open a civil rights case against Zimmerman. The justice department said Sunday it's looking into the case to determine whether it should do so.
The NAACP has created an online petition to the department, which it's promoting on its website, www.naacp.org. Most local NAACP members have signed it. Despite the petition and outcry, many local individuals, including those practicing law, contend the federal ruling was correct.
"It's easy to second-guess others, but we weren't in the courtroom nor on the street," said Kenneth R. Bailey, an attorney in Sandusky. "I have faith that the jury's verdict of actual innocence is accurate."
An arrest doesn't mean an individual is guilty, which is the mindset of many Americans following divisive trials, Bailey said. In this instance, Bailey acknowledged injustice is still alive, regardless of the verdict.
"Mr. Zimmerman will be followed by the shadow of this case for the rest of his life," Bailey said. "Meanwhile, the Martin family will never be reunited with their son. Nobody received justice."
Chris Knople, a Norwalk resident who spoke about the case Monday after responding to one of the Register's Facebook posts, said he believes people should "trust the jury followed the letter of the law" and stop making uninformed decisions regarding the case, including rioting and citing racism.
"In the days to follow, I'm going to be interested in seeing if Zimmerman is pursued by the justice department," Knople said. "Will it be because of pressure from the public and Washington D.C., or will it be because actual charges exist? We shall see."
George Zimmerman case highlights
George Zimmerman's trial in the shooting death of teen Trayvon Martin was nearly three weeks long and concluded Saturday night with an acquittal on all charges. The ruling on the Florida case unleashed debate nationwide concerning racial profiling, self-defense, gun laws and equal justice.
•The verdict: George Zimmerman, who identifies as Hispanic, was found not guilty of second-degree murder in the 2012 death of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin, who is black. The jury could have considered manslaughter charges for Zimmerman but declined doing so.
•The jury: The case's judge issued an anonymity order for the six jurors during the trial, so their names have not been made public. They delivered their verdict Saturday after 15 hours of deliberation.
•President's response: The White House doesn't typically respond to trials not involving the president or federal government, but it issued a rare statement Sunday about the Zimmerman trial. In the statement, President Barack Obama said "we are a nation of laws, and a jury has spoken," but also called Martin's death a tragedy and acknowledged the strong passions it elicited nationwide.
•Looking forward: Zimmerman left the courthouse this weekend as a free man with no charges. The NAACP has called for the U.S. Department of Justice to open a civil rights case against Zimmerman. The department said Sunday it's looking into the case to determine whether it should do so.
Friendly chatter
The Register asked some of its Facebook friends for their opinions on the trial verdict:
•Shari Miller: The jury made the decision. If anyone is unhappy with it then they should be mad at the jury. It is what it is.
•Robert Vanwhy: It's messed up how someone can kill an innocent kid and get away with it and an innocent woman fires warning shots to protect herself and she gets 20 years. That's one messed up system down there.
•Jon Adams: Poor George Zimmerman has to fear for his life. In a fit of hilarity George's brother worried that "someone might take the law into his own hands!"
•Kimberly Slater-Price: Very happy!
•Shaun Bickley: It should have never went to trial. Zimmerman never committed any crime. The police would not press charges, then politically 44 days after the event, the special prosecutor charged him ... Total crap!
•Tim Stang: Time to move on, folks. Nobody won in this tragedy.
•Kari Hamer: Enough with the race war. Tragedies happen every day to many different races, not all black and white.
•Dianne Trout: I am not convinced that he is not guilty. Why would you take a gun outside in a residential area with the safety off if you were not premeditating something?
•Dionne Amison: Not one of you would say say "time to move on" or "get over it" if it had been your 17-year-old child that had been racially profiled, followed, chased down and then gunned down like an animal.
•Tiffany England: None of this would have been about race if the media didn't make it that way. Nothing makes any sense in America anymore.

Topeka, IN-A 28-year-old man from LaGrange was arrested this afternoon following a search of the Topeka area by numerous law enforcement agencies after he allegedly made threats to another person in the parking lot of a Topeka area business.
According to Indiana State Police Detective Jeff Boyd, at approximately 2:10 pm, the LaGrange County Sheriff Department received an emergency call alleging that Joas Eicher, 28 from LaGrange had directly threatened another man, indicating that he was armed with a handgun, in the parking lot of a Topeka business before causing damage to a vehicle and leaving the property on foot. Police officers from the State Police, Topeka Police, LaGrange County Sheriff, Noble County Sheriff, Ligonier Police, Shipshewana Police and Rome City Police Departments converged in the area in an attempt to locate Eicher. The business was locked down during the search.
Boyd said that at approximately 3:00 pm, Eicher was located in downtown Topeka and taken into custody. He was not armed with a handgun. He was taken to and incarcerated in the LaGrange County Jail on the following preliminary charges:
• Attempted Aggravated Battery, Class B Felony
• Intimidation, Class D Felony
• Criminal Mischief, Class A Misdemeanor
A probable cause hearing is scheduled for Thursday in the LaGrange County Superior Court.

Prince George's police have arrested a 19-year-old for allegedly kicking a 2-year-old at an unlicensed child day care center in the Upper Marlboro area.
The day care employee, Johnathan Desmond Cummings, was arrested Monday and charged with physical child abuse and second-degree assault.
On Monday, police responded to the day care at 13607 Wood Ember Dr., Cummings' residence, for the report of child abuse.
An investigation showed that the house was allegedly being used as an unlicensed residential day care, police said.
Police said detectives found that Cummings was a caregiver for the day care and allegedly assaulted a 2-year-old.
According to police, a witness captured the incident on video and alerted the child's parents, who then notified police.
Cummings was taken to the county's department of corrections after being arrested, but was released on a $35,000 bond after admitting to the assault.
The Maryland State Department of Education's Office of Child Care has issued the unlicensed day care center a cease and desist order, according to county police, and the owners of the day care have been told they cannot provide day care service until they are properly licensed.
Police said investigators believe there may be other victims.
The police department is asking anyone with information about other potential cases to contact the department's child and vulnerable adult unit at 301-772-4930.
A defense attorney for Cummings was not listed with the courts by Wednesday night, according to online county court records.
Attempts to reach Cummings or his family members at the Wood Ember residence were not successful Wednesday evening.
Residents in the neighborhood were shocked to hear of the incident.
"That's awful, just horrible. I've only been here nine months and had no idea that was going on," said Wienna Hamilton, 40, of the unlicensed day care.
Jason Jones, 42, said he lives in the same subdivision and said he's seen children coming in and out of the home to be picked up and dropped off by parents.
"I was just picking up my daughter from day care," Jones said of his two-year-old Wednesday evening. "We as parents have to do our background work. You don't want to be thinking about what's happening to my child. I know [Cummings], as a 19-year-old, knows he made the wrong move."

Global PS demand expected to be lower in 2013 because of high feedstock costs, product substitution
10:38 AM MDT | May 23, 2013 | Francinia Protti-Alvarez
Polystyrene (PS) demand is expected to be lower worldwide this year compared with last year, according to the latest IHS Chemical Market Advisory Service: Global Plastics & Polymers report. PS is under pressure because high feedstock and conversion costs are resulting in converters substituting PS with other plastics, including polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polypropylene (PP), and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), the report says. PS demand in Western Europe is expected to be 5% lower during 2013, and similar trends are being observed in...

Gallery: The Superstar is a Star-Shaped Self-Sustaining City of the Fut...
The city of tomorrow takes to the skies in an incredible new concept from Beijing-based MAD Architects. Although its spires may look menacing, the aptly named Superstar is a completely self-sustaining city that is capable of producing all of its own power and food while recycling all of its waste. Conceived as a future-forward update to the contemporary Chinatown, the Superstar will travel the globe, supplying its host cities with energy, commerce, and cultural activities.
Looking suspiciously like a Cylon Base Star from Battlestar Galactica, the utopian Superstar is "a fusion of technology and nature, future and humanity". MAD Architects conceived of the sparkling modern superstructure as an update to the faded facades and cluttered kitsch of Chinatowns around the globe:
"Superstar: A Mobile China Town is MAD's response to the redundant and increasingly out-of-date nature of the contemporary Chinatown. Rather than a sloppy patchwork of poor construction and nostalgia, the superstar is a fully integrated, coherent, and above all modern upgrade of the 20th century Chinatown model."
As a completely self-sustaining city, the Superstar will be capable of housing 15,000 people. It will grow its own food, recycle all of its waste, and produce its own power, even feeding some energy back into its host city's grid.
The Superstar will also be capable of traveling around the globe, sharing Chinese culture with the cities in which it docks. Inside, one can experience fine Chinese cuisine, purchase quality Chinese goods, and participate in cultural events and celebrations. It will also offer health resorts, sports facilities, drinking-water lakes, and even a digital cemetery to remember those who have passed. According to MAD's website, the first destination of the super star will be on the outskirts of Rome, where it will provide "an unexpected, ever-changing future imbedded in the Eternal Past".
While it is questionable whether or not the full-scale Superstar will ever go on tour, visitors and residences in and around Venice are invited to visit a model at the 11th Annual Venice Bienalle.

We have the meta-material to make it in carbon nanotubes (graphene). Super strong, super light weight. Just finding the power source to keep it afloat might be problematic. Series of nuclear power cells? Would love to see the proposed spec on it.

Okay, sure, it looks implausible, but why all the ire? If someone wants to think way outside the box and be visionary, why is there cause for offense?
And by the way, does anyone remember that the Eiffel Tower was considered an atrocity, as was the pyramid in front of the Louvre and the Seattle Space Needle. Falling Water was said to be impossible to build and it's the most famous piece of residential architecture in the world. I'm not saying that this giant star will even be built. I'm just saying…lighten up.

I assume Lex Luthor designed this. Where he stole the crystal technology from the Fortress of Solitude and infused it with kryptonite to grow his own continent.
January 29, 2011 at 5:55 pm
First we must build the gigantic Xmas tree for it to sit on top of, otherwise it will look out of place. Besides, it has all those sharp points and it will put out someone's eye. It's UGLY… There is no point discussing whether it could be built when clear it should not be built. If aliens come and visit we will be the laughing stock of the whole galaxy. The designer must be shot lest he or she ever designs anything again. Seriously folks…. it is ugly, stupid, pointy, silly and way too Xmassy. DESTROY!!!!
January 28, 2011 at 10:39 pm
I'd place this is the category of non-existent future. Have designers not learned that there is a different between science fiction and reality? The star looks amazing but completely unnatural (then again, so do islands shaped like a palm tree).
January 28, 2011 at 7:05 pm
So… was an engineer involved in this design process? How about a builder? Or a construction manager? Or a developer? How sustainable is it really if it can't be built because it would cost so much to build no one would fund it? It really just wasted time these visionary architects could have been working on real world projects that actually can make a difference. And all glass? really? no matter how efficient that glass is… its still not as efficient as a wall that can be insulated. And while daylight is good, there is such a thing as too much daylight…. and this certainly crossed that line without looking back!
September 29, 2010 at 5:59 pm
no way that imposable you cont do that your just geting evryones hopes up
June 1, 2010 at 8:13 pm
i dont like it haha sure it is creative and sustainable, but this thing i think is really not feasable. Regarding the fact that it has to land on some areas where there are already developments, its not a pretty site for me. Maybe i dont like it because it is pointed.
February 22, 2010 at 4:33 pm
LOL…. Yeah right.
Apart from a few chuckles I am rendered speechless. I can't comment……. LOL….
November 2, 2008 at 10:05 am
I agree that this project is certainly creative and awe-inspiring, and it is valuable for that sole reson. However it simply is not practical. Ignoring any questions i might have about movement or anything else, it is not a good sustainable project. Agreed, it may be sustainable, but the construction would not. The huge amounts of material and work involved in crerating it would be, no doubt, not only entirely economically unfeasable but also ecologically unsound (as with the construction of any large and complex structure). When it comes to designing eco-friendly architecture, in general it is best to go for simple and cheap (after all, that IS, essentially, the whole point).
Im not saying it couldn't be built. Maybe someday in the future, if mankind can live in peace in a war and violence-free society…
Which is unlikely, not to say impossible. But hey, we can all dream…
PS: kanenas… i would appreciate it if you could tell me what your claim of existing anti-gravity propulsion is based on. As far as i know, although many models which reproduce the effects of anti-gravity exist, there is no "true" anti-gravity technology out there.
October 30, 2008 at 9:53 pm
has any1 heard of anti-graviry propulsion? u should have it exists.. and though it wouldnt work at 40000 feet it could at a low altitude.. i would think that thing would run with a couple of nuclear reactors plus whatever solar energy it will produce.. so it will be a nuclear disaster waiting to happen besides that constant eye twitch it should produce to those that would it added at any juncture of their panoramic vision. Ow and the cylon spaceship is so so so much prettier then that.. People go to china town for good noodles and beijing duck not to give back their super-power or get the latest goss from planet kryptn.. i mean seriously..
September 24, 2008 at 10:12 am
Ludicrous physically and even more ridiculously described. The feasability of this idea does not merrit comment,
however the description is something that is here and now and… who wrote this? Maybe it is a poor translation, but wow.
\"first destination of the super star will be on the outskirts of Rome, where it will provide "an unexpected, ever-changing future imbedded in the Eternal Past.\"\"-What? Either this is written by an 8 year old given an assignment for a Montessori philosophy class, or someone is in need of some fresh air.
September 23, 2008 at 5:35 pm
In the distant future maybe not this design but ,there will be may mind-boggeling cities in the sky .And they will look unimaginable aswell as a lot of evrything else ,how about enormous hovering cargo moth vessels ,
different climate major politcal changes and advances in medica and gene science.
this shit is for real my friends.,

Principles of physics seem to be tossed out the window,
An update to Chinatown is approptiate albeit but what's that power cord look like that plugs this thing in?
Call me "old school," but I still prefer the timeless apses of Arcosanti over this, when it comes to form-of-density, but then – I still like stone, wood, glass, metals. . . .
September 19, 2008 at 12:56 pm
While I tend to gravitate towards conceptual architecture like this, I have a lot of problems with this design. The problem that I have is not with the utter infeasability of the project, but rather that it is an idea that has already been done 30+ years ago. This design basically copied the ideas of Archigram\'s Walking City and Super Studios Continuous Monument. There is nothing wrong with using a previous project as a precedent. I actually used the Continuous Monument as a precedent for a project I did in school, but the project went beyond the ideas of what super studio had chosen. It seems like this project just took the narrative for the Walking City and gave it new renderings, which are not as cool as Archigram\'s original design.
September 19, 2008 at 10:06 am
And plasticanimalz, I have yet to find an actually intelligent comment about why architecturally or technologically this SHOULD be in the future.
Anything's possible, but where's the merit? In fact, your flying car metaphor is an absolute perfect parallel. That was an idea of the future born of the 50s when the absolute adulation of technology and progress was king – we have seen, since then, that our faith in that kind of 'progress' was misplaced. Why does anyone need a flying car? Why should anyone WANT a flying car, when we can instead develop transit alternatives and compact, walkable, livable communities?
Big ideas are fun, but it's silly to look at this as anything but an inspiration in the same way as one would look at Star Trek. Yes, zero energy, zero waste, closed-loops etc… are all good ideas – but I don't need a cartoony rendering to tell me that. Big thinking can be its most inspiring when there's an element of pragmatism, when you can actually envision it happening.
September 18, 2008 at 12:48 pm
This is awesome. And honestly, I'm surprised at all of the negativity posted on this site. This is exactly "why" they're looking to create something like this to escape all the negativity of people who are clearly jaded, bitter, and have no hope for a positive future. What if the Wright brothers listened to you people? We wouldn't have planes. And I have yet to find an actually intelligent comment about why architecturally or technologically this can't be in the future. Do any of you actually watch scientific programming, read the news, know anything about architecture, green technology, etc? Major companies have already created flying cars that work that aren't anything like jet airplanes or regular technology, and you are trying to tell me this can't work? Has the Bush administration really jaded you so much that you all see nothing but the future of "Soilent Green?" Pathetic.

Este sin duda es un de los proyectos mas osados que e visto en mi vida… es mas increíble que el LHC la verdad, no me justan que gastan tanto millones de dólares en esto aviando tanta gente que se muere de hambre, pero bueno el ser humano es ambicioso en todos los sentidos que lo podemos imaginar…..
hay muchas preguntas y miedos en el proyecto como por EJ. como se estaviliza, como se transporta, y mas inportante si esta micro ciudad flota, que seguridad hay que no se caiga, saven cuanta personas van a morir la ciudad se estrella por ej……
September 16, 2008 at 10:50 pm
like a circus? =)
it looks impractical maybe. if its made solely for a living space… but if you think of it as a solar conductor, movable by a large helicopter and an eye catcher i think its fits the design. And it supposed to be fun.

While I usually applaud every effort to green our environment, Sony is joking with this \'camera\', isn\'t it?
15 seconds of spinning to charge for each photo; no viewfinder; no screen; no flash (?)… As a toy, a curiosity, it might have some value, but as a \'real\' camera? It won\'\'t even work as a gadget for kids as, without a screen, I can\'t see anyone being impressed with it.
Producing green products is always commendable, but those products have to be functional. This thing isn\'t. I dread to think of the resources used in developing it. Now that is waste!
Sorry,. I NEVER advocate waste, but I\'ll be sticking to my planet-killing, battery powered camera.

I'm unclear as to how this city plans on moving… I see no jets or anything remotely resembling a propulsion system. Is there any security while this thing is floating around? It just takes one country to get upset and attack and not only does Chinatown plummet, but it kills god-knows-how-many people below

There is so much wrong with this from a basic physics perspective, not to mention space usage, access/egress, and appearance. Why is such a ludicrous design getting so much press?
It can MOVE? Ok, sure. Why not say it can travel through time as well? I'd love to see it magically lift up and travel to New York, where it settles and then sinks 100 feet into the streets, crushing the subway and storm deep tunnels.
Here is a building design looking for a 4 mile tall Christmas tree to hang from.

Now, before I get cruxified, hear me out.
Yes, that T.O. Sign him. Why? Well, he's cheap, he's motivated, and he's a (still) very good WR. He's obviously in shape. I know...I know. Team Chemistry and all of that. But, if the Dolphins land a QB that they need to further develop, or even if they decide to (attempt to) develop Moore, what better way to do that than to give him not one, but two, giant threats as WR? Big, easy targets that don't just get open, they create openess. Yes, thye both drop the ball, but they both make incredible catches. Having them on the field makes any other possible receiver better too.
Now, I realize it's a risk. I realize teams didn't beat down TO's door last season, but why not? Why not sign him to an incentive laden contract? If he meets those incentives we ALL win. If he doesn't, no harm, no foul. He's gone and forgotten. I doubt he wouldn't take just about any offer right now. We've heard about his money problems. He needs it. And he'll know that if he plays hard he'll get it.

Information For:
Foreign Language Placement and Assessment
The Kent State Foreign Language Placement Questionnaire and Placement Tests
The foreign language placement questionnaire is available to all admitted Kent State Students through the Placement and Assessment Channel in the student tools tab in FlashLine. Newly admitted students majoring in programs with a foreign language requirement should complete the foreign language placement questionnaire prior to their initial advising appointment even if they have not studied a foreign language before. Returning students who have not taken a language placement test but who wish to study a foreign language should also complete the placement questionnaire. Once the questionnaire is submitted, students will then be directed to an online foreign language placement test (WebCAPE - French, German, Russian or Spanish) or to appropriate faculty or staff for additional placement and advising information for languages for which there is no online placement exam. Placement cutoff scores are advisory. All students should consult with an academic advisor or MCLS faculty prior to self-enrolling in their first language course at Kent State University. Questions about the placement questionnaire, placement tests and special approvals to register for language courses should be directed to Modern and Classical Language Studies at email@example.com or 330-672-2150.

Language Learned in the Home or in Stays Abroad
Language learned in stays abroad or in the home is a great benefit in communication, but is frequently not at the level of formal academic language study and does not guarantee success in college foreign language classes. Students with language learned this way often have difficulty with formal writing, spelling and punctuation conventions, etc. If you think your placement score or the recommended course level are incorrect, contact Modern and Classical Language Studies (330-672-2150) and meet with a language faculty advisor for correct placement.
College Credit or Waiver for Prior Foreign Language Study
Students who have taken a foreign language in school, studied in a non-English-speaking country, or learned a foreign language at home may be able to earn college credit for this prior foreign language study. There are five options:
- The College Level Examination Program (CLEP). Academic Testing Services administers computerized CLEP exams where students may earn academic credit for French, German, Russian and Spanish. These tests must be taken before enrolling in a college foreign language course. For more information, see www.kent.edu/career/testing/clep.cfm. Experience indicates that students scoring 300 or above on the KSU placement test are often successful in earning CLEP credit.
French Language, College Level(one exam for up to 14 hours)50French 13201, 13202 - CLEP859French 23201, 23202 - CLEP6German Language, College Level(one exam for up to 14 hours)50German 11201, 11202 - CLEP860German 21201, 21202 - CLEP6Spanish Language, College Level(one exam for up to 14 hours)50Spanish 18201, 18202 - CLEP863Spanish 28201, 28202 - CLEP6
- Advanced Placement (AP). Kent State University awards college credit for Advanced Placement exams with scores of 3, 4, or 5. If you want this credit attached to your Kent transcript, contact the College Board. No credit can be posted until a student has enrolled as a Kent State University student. For more information, visit the Honors webpage at: http://www.kent.edu/honors/academicsandresearch/advanced-placement.cfm
- International Baccalaureate (IB) Credit. Kent State University awards college credit for most International Baccalaureate exams with scores of 5 or higher on the higher level examinations. No credit can be posted until a student has enrolled as a Kent State University student. For more information, visit the Honors webpage at: http://www.kent.edu/honors/academicsandresearch/international-baccalaureate.cfm
- Foreign Study Credit. Students whose education before university study was conducted primarily in a language other than English should provide documentation of this fact to the university, which will normally waive the requirement of foreign language study for such students.
- Credit by Examination may be possible for credit for some individual language classes.
American Sign Language Testing
ASL Testing is available as follows:Kent Campus Stark Campus

LaGuardia Back Online After Southwest Accident
Originally published on Tue July 23, 2013 10:20 am
Flights due to arrive at New York City's LaGuardia Airport were experiencing delays that averaged 1 hour and 27 minutes as Tuesday dawned, the Federal Aviation Administration says.
But the issue was weather-related, traffic controllers said, not the aftermath of Monday afternoon's accident, in which a Southwest Airlines Boeing 737 arriving from Nashville skidded down a runway after its front landing gear collapsed.
Fortunately, of the 150 people said to be on board the plane only 10 suffered injuries that required medical attention, CBS Local New York reports. Of those 10, "six were hospitalized, four of them for anxiety attacks. ... Four refused hospitalization."
Passenger Anastasia Elliot told CNN that the landing was "pretty chaotic. ... We hit the ground pretty hard and slid. ... There was a lot of smoke filling the plane, just a lot of smoke and burnt rubber."
"Everything in the plane that was loose went flying forward," passenger Bill Roland said, also to CNN. "There were cell phones, iPads, books (and) drinks all skidded up."
The investigation into what caused the landing gear to collapse continues.

In Good Lessons from Bad Women, a devilishly funny one-woman show performed by Dorothy Leeds, a woman wrestles with the concept of goodness and dives deep into a world where good is bad and bad is good.
Instructed from childhood by her mother to be a "good girl" like the ever-virtuous Eleanor Roosevelt, Dorothy wonders what might be on the other side of goodness. As she begins a journey from rebellion to reconciliation, she visits a series of infamous, disreputable women from different time periods and backgrounds.
In seven vignettes and frequent conflicts with Eleanor Roosevelt, Dorothy learns from these fascinating women by becoming each one and imparting the subtle lessons they teach. By the play's triumphant ending, she has gleaned wisdom from the original sinner, Eve, the guilt-free Mae West, the opportunistic Emperor Wu, the image-building Kathryn Kelley, the litigious Elizabeth Freeman and the nymphomaniacal Anne Bonney.
Good Lessons from Bad Women celebrates the good and bad in all of us!

The fact that it was a shortened course did not take away from the excitement of it being Kitzbuehel. With a heavy snow fall causing the race to be delayed to a later start, this time it was the army of volunteers who pushed things to the limit to get the race done. The clench of the fist in the finish by Bode Miller showed the World just what winning a race meant to Miller and the hope of staying in the lead was etched across his face. Sadly Didier Defago snatched the win from his grasp and Miller was left with second place in the Super G; Aksel Lund Svindal grabbed joint third.
Miller said after the race: "It was pretty basic. Ski racing is all about making do with what you get with the weather. This super-G here didn't give us a lot of chances to make up time. I skied really well but couldn't do anything else," he explained afterwards.
With Johan Clarey posting an early lead, it looked like it was déjà vu for Svindal as he lost time on the upper section of the course and then clawed it back and carried the speed into the finish. The defending Champion from 2013 posted the equal time that Max Franz had posted as he had dislodged Clarey from the lead. With the top seeds all down, it looked like the first joint win of the year was about to happen but then Miller came down and received the plaudits of the crowd with a great run. Before he had time to even get into the leaders enclosure, Defago had snatched the lead from him.
With the racers very tightly bunched Svindal commented: "Third is ok, of course I would have wanted to get ahead but I'll take it. It was a short course and margins were very small. It's a lot better than cancelling the race. I'm feeling good and want to keep this momentum going," Svindal said.
The race saw a unusual sight: Four racers, all HEAD racers tieing with the same time: Silvan Zurbriggan, Hans Olsson, Dustin Cook and Silvano Varettoni all took 40th spot!
The podium for Svindal keeps the lead healthy in the Super G World Cup and Bode Miller moves up to fourth with his second place, just ahead of Georg Streitberger in fifth. Svindal has extended his lead in the race for the Overall.

Brandon Calton selected to play in Blue Gray All-Star Classic
Thursday, December 04, 2003JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (Dec. 4, 2003) - East Tennessee State senior defensive lineman Brandon Calton (Pennington Gap, Va.) has been selected to participate in the 65th Blue Gray All-Star Classic presented by Movie Gallery. The game will take place on Christmas Day at 3 p.m. from Movie Gallery Veterans Stadium on the Troy State University campus in Troy, Ala. and will be televised live nationally by ESPN2. Calton was a dominant force along the defensive line this season for the Bucs, posting career highs in tackles, tackles for loss and sacks. He finished fourth on the Bucs with 75 tackles and was second on the team with 15.5 tackles for losses and 4.5 sacks. Calton tied for fourth in the Southern Conference in TFL's and tied for sixth in the SoCon in sacks. He also had two forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries and a blocked extra point on the season. Calton had a season-high 10 tackles on Nov. 1 against Georgia Southern and had nine in the season-opener at Eastern Michigan on Aug. 28. Following the season, Calton earned All-Southern Conference honors for a second time. "We are certainly very proud of Brandon for being elected to such a prestigious all-star game to represent East Tennessee State University and our football program," said ETSU head football coach Paul Hamilton. "He is a great credit to our university as well as to the Southern Conference." The Blue Gray game is one of the most respected collegiate all-star games and is the first such game of the post-season. Proceeds of the game go to Youth Development and Sight Conservation charities of the Lions Club. Over $4 million has been contributed to these efforts from the past 64 contests. "It is an honor to be invited to such a classic all-star game," said Calton. "I thank God, my family and all of the coaches that have supported me through the years." Calton is the second Buccaneer to be invited to one of this season's all-star games as senior cornerback Tony Tiller (Lithonia, Ga.) will be participating in the American Airlines Division I-AA All-Star Classic, presented by The Football Network on Dec. 30 and the Las Vegas All-American Classic on Jan. 17.

Feb. 17, 2011 -- As one of the most brutally cold winters on record drags on, most of us are pining for summer. But for many patients with multiple sclerosis, hotter temperatures may not be so welcome because they bring worsening symptoms.
Now new research finds this may be especially true for some of the least well understood symptoms of the disease -- thinking and memory problems.
When researchers tested the memories and information processing abilities of MS patients and people without the disease at different points during the year, they found that the MS patients performed worse on the cognitive tests in warmer seasons.
No seasonal difference was seen in test performance among people without multiple sclerosis.
The study is the first to document the impact of hotter temperatures on memory and thinking function in MS patients, say neuropsychologist and study co-author James F. Sumowski, PhD, of the Kessler Foundation Research Center in West Orange, N.J.
The study will be presented in April at the 63rd annual meeting of the American Academy of Neurology in Honolulu.
Each week in the United States about 200 people are diagnosed with MS, according to the National MS Society.
Numbness, limb weakness, and problems with balance and vision are among the most widely known symptoms of the disease, but problems with thinking and memory are also very common.
Neurologist Barbara Giesser, MD, says the link between hot weather and worsening MS symptoms has been recognized for more than 100 years.
"At the turn of the 20th century, long before we had MRIs and fancy diagnostics, one way of diagnosing MS was the 'hot bath' test," she says. "They would put the patient in a tub of very hot water and if their symptoms worsened, the diagnosis was confirmed."
Although not all MS patients have worse symptoms in hot weather, Giesser says the vast majority have some degree of heat sensitivity.
The newly reported study included 40 MS patients and 40 people without the disease matched to the patients for age, sex, and education level.
All the participants underwent tests designed to measure memory function and information acquisition and processing.
Overall, the MS patients performed 70% better on the thinking tests when the tests were given in colder months compared to warmer ones.
The researchers did not measure the patients' body temperatures or record how long they spent outside before taking the tests.
It is not clear if hot weather affects the progression of MS or just causes temporary worsening of symptoms.
A brain imaging study published last summer by researchers at Harvard University showed that MS-associated brain lesions actually occur more often in warmer months than in colder ones.
Heat appears to slow down nerve impulses that are already impaired by the disease, Giesser says.
"Basically nerves are electrical cables," she says. "MS damages the insulation and short circuits the nerves so that they don't conduct signals as efficiently. If you heat up a damaged nerve, that causes further problems."
Giesser recommends her heat-sensitive patients try cooling strategies like drinking something cold or sucking on ice during warm weather.
This study will be presented at a medical conference. The findings should be considered preliminary as they have not yet undergone the "peer review" process, in which outside experts scrutinize the data prior to publication in a medical journal.

What are the benefits of MAVEA filtered water?
Tap water, while safe to drink, may contain substances which affect its taste, smell, appearance and overall quality. MAVEA filtered water significantly reduces chlorine taste and odor making your drinking water clearer and refreshingly delicious. MAVEA filtered water:
How does the MAVEA filtration system work?
The MAVEA filtration technology is an optimal mixture of activated carbon and ion exchange resin beads that work together with the unique cartridge shape to improve water taste and reduce limescale* and other contaminants (e.g. cadmium, copper, mercury, atrazine, simazine, benzene and tetrachloroethylene). *Limescale reduction certified in internal tests, not certified by WQA
How does the filter cartridge work?
The filter works in four easy steps:
How often do I have to change the cartridge?
Water quality varies considerably so to ensure that your pitcher is always working well we recommend that the cartridge is changed every two months. For best results use the Smart Meter as it tells you exactly when to change your filter so there is no second guessing.
How long does it take to filter the water?
The filter process takes approximately one minute.

I have read one historical joke, that during the Civil War Officer's shoulder bars were called "pumpkin rinds". Where are these mysterious shoulder bars from?

MONTICELLO Even if you don't enjoy politics, debates can be fun!
The first Democlican-Republicrat debate starts at 9 p.m. EST from the University of Denver campus in Colorado.
The New Civil Rights Movement provides Debate Lingo cards pictured at right, or you can play Amnesty International's Human Rights Presidential Bingo online or by downloading four Bingo cards!
Sure, you can watch the debates on nearly any TV station, but who watches theirTube anymore? Ustream offers PBS and CBS feeds. Google streams the debate live via YouTube. You can also see it online at CSPAN, hulu or the Huffington Post.
If you want to hear more than the two sides to issues, Democracy Now and Common Dreams provides two additional presidential candidates! Jill Stein of the Green Party and Rocky Anderson of the Justice Party will answer the moderator's questions immediately after the Democlican and Republicrat candidates. Tune in at 8:30 EST to begin.
Twitter should be afire, "officially" using #debates as the hashtag. Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson will not be in the debates either, but the Unauthorized Gary Johnson Twitter Army plans to twitterbomb #GaryJohnsonForPresident from 8:45-10:30 p.m. to trend the hashtag during the debate; Johnson may still be crowd-surfing. Politifact will live-tweet, answering questions from the #PolitiFactThis hashtag and providing an Argument Ender app.
The American Democracy Project hopes you'll join a tweet-up at 9 p.m. EST by using #ADPdebate. Amnesty International wants the bingo players to use #AIBingo. The Independent Voter Network will answer tweets with the hashtag #indyvote. The Coffee Party Movement wants you to use #CPdebate, promising to use comments and thoughts in next week's posts and radio shows. NPR is using a special #factcheck conversation.
Texters might win a HRC T-shirt if they correctly answer four questions; Just text DEBATE to 30644.
Of course, politics bores some folks and Bingo seems a bit tame. If you can find a designated driver on a Wednesday night, you might try this drinking game from Conservative Intelligence Briefing.

I am using VS2010 and MySQL for my project. My Client want to take MySQL Dump Every Day like Daily Backup. So I want to give a tool for Taking MySQL Dump with a particular time.
Do you know any tool fulfill my requirement?
I assume you are using Windows (because of you mention VS2010).
Simply create a "scheduled job" either through the Windows UI (e.g.
Here are some links that explain how to create a scheduled task in Windows:
Usually you deploy an existing maintenance script which takes care not only of taking the dump (trivial), but also of deleting the old backup files, naming them accordingly, handling various possible failures etc etc. Eg. I use backup-manager and I'm quite pleased with it.
SQLyog has scheduled backup feature using this you can take periodic backup on certain time interval also there is an option to zip file added advantage is it has got notification if backup fails you will get notification along with failure cause as well.
