Campus Quality:
Its amazing here with so many opportunities for social, academic, and just for funsies.
My major has excellent opportunities to participate in research and volunteer opportunities.
So many options for majors and minors along with classes and organizations to further your academic goals.
Greek Life:
I'm not really in to Greek Life.
Campus Food:
Options are okay, but get old.
It is so amazingly diverse here. Its nice to get to know someone from a different background.
Off-Campus Housing:
lots of options and the school provides safety technology for free for off campus students
We have free buses on campus and throughout town
Athletics are huge here! Our facilities for athletes and students are top notch.
Off-Campus Dining:
We have the best off-campus food options right on the street that runs along campus.
Party Scene:
Lots of possible transportation, however the bars/clubs have been known to be unsafe and roofies are possible.
There are so many students that it is hard to get aid.
Lots of labs in all of the libraries across campus, but wireless is spotting.
The best part about my school is how helpful my advisor is for the Environmental Science major. The opportunities that I have to be successful are all given to me. I plan on studying abroad next year and the options are amazing.
The academics are very tough in classes like Math and chemistry. The reason for this is if the professor gets behind the students pay for it in the end. The class sizes are huge and it is hard for the teacher to connect with us.
Campus Quality:
There are like a bagillion libraries on campus. And the great thing is there are a couple that are 24 hour libraries in case you work 2nd shift and want to study after work. Also, there are a ton of cafes placed across school buildings to grab some food between classes or maybe even a small snack. They tend to be a lot healthier than restaurants that you would go to on campus. And there are a ton of campus events and traditions. Too many to tell you about. But our most famous one is the mirror lake jump.
Campus Quality:
There are a lot of facilities that I have yet to discover but the ones I have found are great. They have a place where you can get discounted tickets to local attractions and amusement parks, you know after you're done studying of course. They also have a lot of health and job fairs to give students information about such things.
Local Area:
There is always a ton of stuff you can do on campus, or get to from campus. Just north of the main campus area there is an extremely incredible artsy area known as the "Short North." There are tons of cool locally owned shops and galleries to explore. There are also cute little cafe's to stop in to get a bite to eat. And the best part is they're in walking distance. If you have been out all day and your feet get tired just use your Buck ID and take the bus back down the street.
Drug Safety:
I haven't heard of much drug activity on campus. I'm sure there maybe someone out there using hardcore drugs on the hush but I have yet to hear of it. The most I hear of is alcohol, and after that it would have to be marijuana. I haven't really heard of use of much else besides that.
Campus Food:
The campus dining is just as good as off campus dining, but then again there are way more options.
Off-Campus Dining:
I believe that the business owners who placed restaurants here were very smart and strategic. There is a huge variety of types of places to eat from greek to chinese to some good old fashioned donuts.There is almost a huge variety of late night delivery places that are there for you when you're studying for an exam or have caught a case of insomnia and hopeless hunger at the same time.
This campus is so huge it has no choice but to be extremely diverse. This is great because there are far too many chances to meet new people and discover new things.
If there isn't a CABS bus to take you where you need to go on campus then there is a cota bus that will. And the cota bus is free with your Buck ID. So you don't have to worry about bus fare.
The strictness of everything on campus is really practical. There isn't anything totally ridiculous about it.
Campus Quality:
Student life is a very important part of campus. The Office of Student Life always has something going on.

There is a reason the Buckeye Nation is considered to be so devoted; an overwhelming love for OSU is evident in student responses, and in the loyalty of alumni to their alma mater. Each person has his or her own reasons for loving the University, and there are quite a few of them. Some students feel that the academics are top-notch and have found exactly the programs they wanted; others lean toward the athletic success of the Buckeye teams, while some just feel that the friendships and bonds they have made are enough to make their tenure at OSU worthwhile. At any rate, everyone can agree that being a Buckeye creates a special bond between you and nearly 50,000 other students, which you will carry with you for the rest of your life.
Once you get past the sheer size of the University, it will really become a second home. After only a quarter of classes, you won't be able to cross the Oval without seeing someone you know. Ohio State is truly the smallest large university you will find. The people are known for their friendly attitudes, and alumni are scattered across the nation. If you choose to go to OSU, you're choosing a school with a name that's well known, both in the workplace and in the college community. Few students ever regret their time at Ohio State, and most consider their college experience to be among the best offered in the Big Ten and the country.

Long Term Care Insurance Association Supports LTC Awareness Month
The American Association for Long Term Care Insurance announced free marketing tools to support Long Term Care Awareness Month.
"Long term care is needed by over 20 million Americans who need help with their health and personal care," declares Jesse Slome, executive director of the American Association for Long-Term Care Insurance http://www.aaltci.org/
Long term care services include personal care services like bathing, doing household chores that enable a person to remain independent. "While most people associate the term long-term care with nursing home care, the vast majority of care is provided in people's homes," Slome explains.
"Medicare and other health insurance do not cover most long-term care services and the costs can be quite high," Slome notes. "There is a good chance you will have to turn family members into unpaid caregivers or pay for services from your income or savings and, as a result, people need to do some planning."
To help create awareness during Long Term Care Awareness Month, the Association makes available marketing and sales material to insurance and financial professionals. The material can be accessed on the organization's website with additional material available exclusively for members.
"Long Term Care Awareness Month is the perfect time for people to take just a few minutes to acquaint themselves with the topic," Slome urges. "We like to say that Long-Term Care is a universal issue facing all Americans who are living long lives and that a failure to plan is nothing more than a plan for failure."
According to the trade group some eight million Americans have long-term care insurance policies. "Insurance is not the universal solution and one has to health qualify in order to obtain this valuable protection,"
Established in 1998 as a non-profit trade group, the American Association for Long Term Care Insurance advocates for the importance of planning for long term care and supports insurance and financial professionals who market LTC insurance.

Ekta's new alphabet obsession
In an eccentric battle of the alphabets, the kingdom of K seems to have collapsed and a new epoch has found its way. Ekta Kapoor's passion for P is the talk of town. The recent example being Ekta's most awaited show - Parichay on Colors starring Samir Soni as the protagonist as most of her shows have been named after the alphabets B and P. From Bairi Piya, Pavitra Rishta, Bade Acche Lagte Hai and now Parichay – Nayee Zindagi Kay Sapno Ka. When the said shows worked, guess she hopes P brings luck to Parichay as well.

(David C. Cook, Available Now)
God is infinite, beyond our understanding—yet He chooses to reveal Himself in ways that spark questions rather than settling them all.
Instead of making Himself smaller, God invites us into a larger faith. One that has room for questions, victories, failures, and mystery. Because belief in an infinite God by finite humans is an act of exploration … a process of learning—and then embracing—what we can't learn but can trust.
Discover the God who not only desires our belief but actually welcomes our curiosity.
Barnabas Piper issues a powerful call to leave the gridlock of black and white thinking and enter the grey terrain of second-guessing and doubt. This is where we raise our toughest, most honest questions to God. Such an invitation doesn't push us from the Gospel but draws us nearer to the heart of Christ. May we all learn to pray, "Help my unbelief."
– Margaret Feinberg, author of Fight Back With Joy and Wonderstruck
Some Christians have a simple faith unencumbered by doubt. For the rest of us, things aren't so easy. We question. We second-guess. We always want to know why. Help My Unbelief is the perfect book for us. With accessible prose and unflinching honesty Barnabas explores belief that encompasses, is even strengthened by, doubt. Anyone navigating a faith filled with doubts will find Barnabas a sympathetic and reliable guide.
– Drew Dyck, managing editor of Leadership Journal and author of Yawning at Tigers: You Can't Tame God, So Stop Trying
Sometimes believers can give the impression that the Christian life is always one of triumph and confidence. This book by Barnabas Piper counsels us on how to trust God when our faith is weak and wavering. It calls us away from a demon-like faith, that simply knows the data about God, to a childlike faith that cries out "I believe; help my unbelief." If you find yourself doubting, or if you love someone who does, this book will refresh and encourage.
– Russell Moore, president of the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission and author of Tempted and Tried: Temptation and the Triumph of Christ
Help My Unbelief gives the church permission to exhale. It's a book which pulls up a chair and looks in the eyes of the doubter and says, "You're not alone, friend." Doubt, says Barnabas Piper, is not the antithesis of Faith. Rather, it's a gateway. The key is to ask the right questions, and to be open to God's answers. For this particular disillusioned pastor's daughter, Piper's words are a lifeline—and the key to drawing today's youth back into Christendom.
– Emily T. Wierenga, author of five books including Atlas Girl: Finding Home in the Last Place I Thought to Look (emilywierenga.com)
Too often our struggles with doubt are hidden, pushed into the back of the cupboard like a corrosive agent that is too dangerous to touch. With clarity, warmth and candour, Barnabas Piper shows us that doubt does not have to be something which corrodes, but rather in its right place can be something that strengthens faith.
– Mark Sayers: Pastor of Red Church, Melbourne, and author of Facing Leviathan and The Road Trip That Changed the World.
Barnabas Piper's Help my Unbelief is an honest, self-revealing and engaging treatment of an important subject. This winsome and well-reasoned book avoids clichés and easy, superficial answers. It will benefit many—including those who doubt, those who "sort of" believe, and those who believe, yet long to do so more completely.
– Randy Alcorn, Author of Heaven and Hand in Hand
I'm really excited for you to read Barnabas' new book, Help My Unbelief: Why Doubt is Not The Enemy of Faith. Barnabas writes in a ruthlessly honest and raw way. This book is going to help an entire generation grow and blossom in their faith in midst of wrestling with doubt.
– Derwin L. Gray, Lead Pastor Transformation Church, Author of Limitless Life: You Are More Than Your Past When God Holds Your Future.
Barnabas Piper in Help My Unbelief makes a clear and compelling case for faith amidst the sea of doubts many experience in Christianity. It's a necessary book for our generation.
– Matt Carter, Pastor of Preaching, Austin Stone Community Church, co-author of The Real Win and For the City
Barnabas Piper's Help My Unbelief is an encouraging, honest look at an essential but under-discussed aspect of faith: the tension between belief and unbelief. It's a tension that need not be feared. Piper shows us, rather, how the tension can be healthy and ultimately leave us stronger in our faith. For any believer who has felt alone in their wrestle with unbelief, or who was mistakenly taught that true belief is always ironclad, this valuable and timely book is for you.
– Brett McCracken, author of Gray Matters and Hipster Christianity
(David C. Cook, Available Now)
Barnabas Piper has experienced the challenges of being a PK first hand. In The Pastor's Kid, he addresses the pervasive assumptions, identity issues, and accelerated scrutiny PK's pastor/father and church body. But more than just stating the problems he shares the one thing a PK needs above all else (as do their pastor/father and church) to live in true freedom and wholeness. With empathy, humor and passion, this book courageously addresses one of the most under-the-radar issues affecting almost every church and pastor, and their children.

Easy money
- Visit the sewer system. The entrance is directly south of the westernmost Tattaglia warehouse on the Hell's Kitchen Loop. Prepare for a battle. The crate containing the money you are after is guarded by a group of heavily armed bell-boys.
- To get more money, take over as many businesses, warehouses, and rackets as possible before completing missions. By doing this you will get much more on payday, and money for important weapon upgrades.
iair dienht monolegis.
- Use the following trick if you do not like seeing your hard earned money going into some racket that will not pay off later. Get the pressure up on the person you would normally buy out. Instead, he will pay you.
- On missions where you raid an enemy gang's operation (like a supplier or storefront racket), search the interior after completing the main objective for hidden stashes of ammunition and cash. Most back rooms, closets, and rooftops contain hidden moneybags or weapon stashes.
- To get free money and respect, go to the Molotov cocktail seller in Midtown. There will be some hobos walking around. If you see any , shoot them. You will receive no heat, but either +750 respect and $3000 or +900 respect and $100.
- Different families have different incomes. The richest family is the Barzini (green) family followed by the Cuneo (red) family. The businesses that you take from these families pay out a lot more than the other two. Also, when you are taking over their business, do not forget to pick up the money they drop. When a Barzini (green) family member is killed, you can pick up at least $200 per person. However, when you take money from a Tattaglia (brown) family member, you will only get $15.
- To get cash $2,000 or more, get on the freeway. About every 10 seconds of driving a warehouse truck will appear. Stop your car in front of it, hop out, cause some damage, kill the bagmen, take the loot, and keep driving. You can accumulate lots of money quickly. Then, return to your safe house and deposit the money.
- Go into Brooklyn. Go to the police station and bribe the chief. Then, rob the bank. When you get outside no one will shoot or chase you. Note: When bribing the chief make sure you have no heat.
- After own the compounds, go to New Jersey. It is easier to travel from the Holland Tunnel. Go to the Stracci compound, then drive into the container park. Go far behind, where you will see a lot of containers. Step out, then you will see a lot of Stracci soldiers. Kill all of them then go in to the maze. At the back there are two boxes and another group of Straccis. Break open the box to find approximately $120,000. Go as fast as you can to your car before another bunch of Straccis appear. If they do so, kill them all. In total you will get $125,000. Be aware the you will need a lot of ammunition. They can be as strong as the sewer system bell-boys.
- When walking around the city you will see homeless men from time to time. Kill them. The majority of the time they will have $5,500 and you will have no heat.
- Take over the Transportation Hub (previously Barzini) in Brooklyn on Main St. and Empire. Then look for the man with the Blackhand icon and talk to him. He tells you to deliver the truck. Look for a truck behind him. Its color does not matter Take it to the Cafe Vitales, which is on Dock St. in-between Church and Prospect. Make sure you have extorted that business and its racket. For that simple task who will receive three stacks of $25,000. Also, you may want to buy the safehouse in Brooklyn for easy transportation there when you need money.
- Get a fast car. Drive to the Holland Tunnel. Go into it in the opposite direction. When you see a racket truck, hit it head on. Your car or the truck should be on fire. get out and run for cover. After it explodes, take out your gun. If there are any survivors, kill them and get the $2,000. Hijack a new car. Keep doing this until you get to the end of the tunnel. When you enter New Jersey, make sure you have dynamite, full health, and full ammunition. Drive to the bank. Do not take out your gun when you enter. Instead, find a door that leads to a hallway with three new big doors. Find the stairs. Walk downstairs. When you reach the bottom you will see a door. Wall cover next to it. Open the door. There should be a guard. Take out your best gun and fire away. Another guard should approach. Kill him. There should metal door in that room. Go through it. The guards should know you are there. Walk up to the safe and plant the dynamite. Enter the door next to the safe and go to the farthest corner. After it explodes enter the safe and get the money. You will have to go out the same way you came in. Be prepared and fight your way out. Grab a car and drive to your nearest safe house. The money is now yours.
- The easiest way to do this is to use a gun. Stand in the back entrance of one of your safe houses. Pay off some cops and take out your weapon of choice. Wait for a racket truck to pass by. Interrogate the driver to get the keys. Take the truck to the back entrance of the safe house. Usually two to five trucks pass every five minutes. The trucks worth will vary from $1,000 to $10,000.
- Use the following trick to get easy money to buy the guns. Go to Brooklyn and get every warehouse and business. Go to the warehouse on the left and get a truck. It will take a 45 second drive to get $75,000. You can do this as many times as desired. You will get three payments of $25,000 each. This is the only place you can get that type of payment in that short of a drive.
- Use your negotiation skills to take over businesses and rackets so your monetary income can get increase. When that happens you will have enough money to buy safe houses, weapons and even higher crew members with no problems.
- Rob any bank then get caught. You will only pay the hospital fee and keep the rest of the money.
- An easy way to achieve money can be down in Midtown. Go there and turn right at 42nd Street. Go down until you see a club owned by the Barzinis and also a safehouse called "Lucy's Apartments" across the street. There is also a warehouse next to the club at the end of 42nd Street. Buyoff a cop, preferably the chief of police, then buy the safehouse. Take over the club (and the warehouses if desired). Leave and return a little later and your Corleone men will be all over those two blocks. Make sure that you keep the cops bribed. You should now control the block, and have the safehouse, your men, and the cops. There should be green warehouse trucks that drive by every now and then. The green indicates that they are owned by Barzini. Shoot the truck until it stops, then two lower class Barzinis should appear. Kill them and the driver will exit. Grab the driver, punch him twice, then interrogate him. After you are done with him, kill him to get some extra cash. One of the Barzini men will drop a bag with $3,600. Pick that up, then get in the truck. Drive it a few yards to your safehouse and receive the payout, which totals about $13,000. There will be Barzini men that ambush you, but the police and the Corleones will take care of them quickly. Blow up the truck, go back onto the street, and repeat the process. Remember to keep the police on your side or they will blow up the truck or kill you before you can receive the payout.
- Go to Midtown to the bank next to the barbershop. Bribe one of the cops wearing black. They cost $500. Then, go inside, downstairs, and through the door at the end of the hallway. Use your Tommy gun to kill the four guards. Blow open the safe and take the money. While walking out there should be three more guards. You can kill them, but you do not have to. Immediately run upstairs and out of the bank. Bribe any type of cop then steal a car. Go to the bank over by the Barzini's mansion. You can rob it easily. Bribe another cop when you are done, then cruise home to get $70,000 in cash.
All the safe houses that you pay for have ammo caches.
When low on ammunition or health, you can go into these houses
and restock. They are the orange houses on the map, and most are
in hotels.
Recommended weapons
- Do not waste money on safe houses. You can make it fine with just the ones you get in the story. Instead, save money for clothing and weapons. All the best weapons cost a lot but are well worth it. The Saturday Night Special is a better revolver and it will cost $75,000. The Assassin's Pistol is better gun and costs about $200,000. The Python a better magnum will cost $250,000. The Dillinger is a machine gun that costs $450,000. Finally, the Street Sweeper, which works like a shotgun, sells for $500,000 and will kill most people in one shot.
- The pistol at level 3 works like a semi-automatic gun. It carries fourteen bullets and has more firepower. This is perfect for taking over businesses. The shotgun at level 3 has more ammunition, more firepower, and is perfect for taking over warehouses, etc. Prioritize weapons upgrades before safehouse buying. One house in each city will suffice in the start. However, you will have to buy them all in the end.
- The only necessary guns you should buy are the Tommy gun level 2, Streetsweeper, pistol extended clip, Saturday Night Snubnose, and Python. You can get the money needed to purchase them by driving the warehouse trucks.
Gun names
All the guns in the game are based on real-life firearms.
Here are their real-life equivalents:
- .38 Snub-Nose: Colt Detective .38 Special/Smith & Wesson M& P 2in revolver
- Pistol: Colt M1911A1 semi-auto .45 pistol
- Magnum: Smith & Wesson Model 10 revolver in .357
- Long-barrel Shotgun: Remington 870 pump-action shotgun
- Tommy Gun: Thompson M1921/1928 sub-machine gun in .45
Gun upgrade prices and recommendations
The Street Sweeper is recommended because it has 100
bullets available and can kill in one shot. Another good gun to
buy is the Colt Python. In close range it can kill in one shot,
but it has poor shot power at long and medium range. The Assassin's
Pistol is also useful. When running, the pistol fires like any
other pistol. However when you stand still it fires like a Tommy
- Street Sweeper: $500,000
- Dillinger: $450,000
- Saturday Night Special: $75,000
- Assassin's Pistol: $250,000
- Colt Python: $250,000

Cameron Smith calls for State of Origin to be played on stand-alone weekends
- From: The Sunday Mail (Qld)
- July 08, 2012
QUEENSLAND captain Cameron Smith has called on the ARL Commission to consider playing State of Origin games on stand-alone weekends.
Smith said it could be a great thing for the game and would help fatigue-battling players immensely as Origin was so draining.
Smith said he did not have a definitive answer to the myriad of issues Origin's incredible popularity threw up.
However he said player fatigue during the season was still a burning issue and stand-alone weekends would help alleviate that problem.
"If we are speaking about stand-alone games because of player fatigue, then yes it is not a bad concept," Smith said.
"You are asking blokes to play on Wednesday night and then back up a few days later.
"If it's for the greater good of the game then they need to look at it.
"You walk off the field from Origin with nothing left.
"Walk into a dressingroom after Origin and you see bodies everywhere, strewn across the floor."
North Queensland Cowboys coach and former Maroons assistant Neil Henry said there was no easy fix to the scheduling dramas that Origin caused.
The Cowboys drew the short straw this year, playing against the New Zealand Warriors in Auckland without their Origin players and predictably losing.
Henry said the ARLC could free up a weekend by scrapping the stand-alone trans-Tasman Test in April.

Unfortunaely there is no other easy way to stop spamming. Even with those captchas, it takes about 5-15 minutes every day to get rid of spam or junk posts. Without captchas, we wouldnt have time anymore to bother about anything else but deleting spam. We're looking into less intrusive captchas, but at the moment this is what we've to use.

Sixteen Bishop Kearney High School seniors were commissioned as Eucharistic Ministers during a Mass attended by their parents and friends, as well as pastors from the parishes they represent. These girls will be able to distribute Communion at Kearney's liturgical functions and in their own parishes, as well as to the homebound and those unable to attend Mass.

Eliminating heart attacks, high blood pressure and strokes naturally
Heart disease is the number one killer of black people in America.
"Don't attack your heart and it won't attack you."
This is your heart after years and years of soul food and junk foods.
You Simply Must Understand How Sugar Is Destroying Your Heart...
...your liver, pancreas, kidneys, reproductive organs, arteries, eyes, ears and other body parts.
Coronary Heart Disease (CHD)
CHD is caused by a thickening of the inside walls of the coronary arteries. This thickening, called atherosclerosis, narrows the space through which blood can flow, decreasing and sometimes completely cutting off the supply of oxygen and nutrients to the heart. It is usually caused by a combination of non-holistic practices such as poor nutrition, environmental pollution, destructive eating habits and deterioration of the body. Many other factors can cause this disease reaction such as high and low blood pressure, acid ash, fat deposits, thermal glandular fatigue and loss of vein and artery flexibility.
The current fad, which suggests high cholesterol levels resulting in arteriosclerosis - caused heart attacks, was started in 1913. It is founded upon giving high levels of cholesterol to rabbits (livers too small to break down fats). Further, the researchers never realized that the research was on disease damage and never gave disease damage any significance.
Atherosclerosis usually OCCURS WHEN A PERSON HAS HIGH LEVELS OF CHOLESTEROL, A FAT-LIKE SUBSTANCE IN THE BLOOD. Cholesterol and fat circulating in the blood, build up on the walls of the arteries. This buildup narrows the arteries and can slow or block the flow of blood. When the level of cholesterol in the blood is high, there is a greater chance that it will be deposited onto the artery walls. This process begins in most people during childhood and the teenage years, and worsens, as they get older.
In addition to high blood cholesterol, high blood pressure, smoking also contributes to CHD. On the average, each of these doubles your chance of developing heart disease. Therefore, a person who has all three risk factors is eight times more likely to develop heart disease than someone who has none. Obesity and physical inactivity are other factors that can lead to CHD. Being overweight increases the likelihood of developing high blood cholesterol and high blood pressure while physical inactivity increases the risk of heart attack. Regular exercise, good nutrition and smoking cessation are key to controlling the risk factors for CHD.
Overweight / Obesity
About 65 percent of American adults are overweight or obese. Being overweight or obese increases the risk not only for heart disease, but also for other conditions, including stroke, gallbladder disease, arthritis, breast, colon and other cancers. Being overweight and obesity are determined by two key measures - body mass index or BMI - and waist circumference. BMI relates height to weight.

Autocorrelation of returns can be used as a proxy measure for liquidity of the asset.

For business purposes, a CFO/CEO typically won't be interested at low-level modeling. Metrics such as: Maximum portfolio gross/net exposure (hence gross/net leverage) Maximum per trade size per product Maximum intraday exposure per product are probably among the more important ones for business decisions.

You that choose not by the view. Chance as faire, and choose as true.
Even though "To be or not to be" translates to a really neat regular expression – /(bb|[^b]{2})/ – the link between Shakespeare and sys admins isn't immediately apparent.
But as the playwright once wrote: "A good wit will make use of any thing." So, let's set aside Perl and Bash for a short while and look at a programming language that is full of drama and poetry.

By Sgt. Alvin Williams,Headquarters and Service Battalion, Headquarters Marine Corps Public AffairsFebruary 5, 2014
JOINT BASE MEYER-HENDERSON HALL, Va. - A dozen Marines and nine soldiers from Joint Base Myer-Henderson Hall judged the Third Annual Thomas Jefferson Middle School science fair Jan. 29. The 21 servicemembers volunteered their time as part of the Single Marine and Better Opportunities for Single Soldiers programs.
There were more than 5,000 entries in the science fair representing 100 percent participation from the school's entire seventh and grade students.
The servicemembers were among some 120-plus judges - all volunteers from surrounding communities - to judge science projects from among 13 different categories, including Animal Sciences, Behavioral/Social Sciences, Cell/Molecular Biology, Chemistry, Earth Science, Engineering, Energy, Environmental Science, Mathematical Sciences, Medicine and Health, Microbiology, Physics, and Plant Sciences.
"It was a great way to learn what the students were doing," said Jamie Albers, from Henderson Hall's School Liaison Program. "The volunteers had a wonderful time with interacting with the students, and afterwards we sat and talked about the things we learned from the kids and couldn't believe some of the projects they came up with."
"I can tell they put a lot of work into their projects," said Pfc. Tahira Lawrence, an administrative clerk with Henderson Hall's Headquarters and Service Battalion. "I was very surprised at how sophisticated some of them were."
The top 20 students and their projects will advance to the Northern Virginia Regional Science Fair. The regional science fair includes top students from middle schools and high schools in Arlington, Alexandria, and Falls Church, Va.

How to deal with moving in/marriage/babies...and metamour?
My boyfriend of two years and I recently had a discussion regarding the future, and we would both like to head in to the living together/marriage/babies relationship zone, which is great. Our relationship with each other is awesome, as is my relationship with his son. (He is a single dad, and wanting to be sure about everything for his son's sake is the main reason why we aren't already living together at this point.)
My issue is my metamour, "Sue". I don't think this new situation will make her happy at all. Yes, I know, her feelings are not my responsibility- that was a huge stress relief to have figured out in this relationship, as she tends towards passive aggressive (and aggressive) behaviors that lead to major meltdowns. At this point, my feelings that her behavior is toxic to me and my relationship have been pretty much handled by my limiting time spent with her (not in a dramatic "I can't be around her way", just in a "I will be kind and pleasant when situations require us to be around each other, but I'm not spending unnecessary time with her") and by having our shared partner, "Joe", accept accountability for any of her negative behaviors being turned on me- once she realized that being nasty at me was not acceptable to him anymore, she started lashing out at him instead. If he wants to be with her and tolerate her personality issues, that is up to him- but her negative behaviors not interfering in our relationship are a requirement for me sticking around, and Joe knows it.
She has repeatedly said that if we were to "shack up", she would "die miserable and alone". She does identify as poly, although she has not dated anybody else since being with Joe. He is the ONLY relationship she has ever had and she is in her early 30s. I know Joe feels responsibility towards her particularly because of that, and because of her social awkwardness and introversion. She literally has no other friends but him. (I tried- but she was so nasty to me that I stopped.) I don't really understand why she feels that us moving in together would alter their relationship, particularly to that point. They currently see each other 1, maybe 2 nights a week, depending on circumstances. I actually recently worked out our schedule in a way that gives them more time together. I have already brought up with Joe that in our apt hunting, we should consider having our own bedrooms, so there is space and privacy for when they are together. (I don't love the idea of her being in my home on a regular basis, but it would also be Joe's home, and I'm capable of being in my own space or finding my own things to do outside of the home.) However, I don't really think it's a matter of anything I do- I think her own issues will cause some lashing out no matter what- and of course, Joe is going to be sitting there second guessing his choice of moving forward with me because of how negative her behavior will become. I don't even want to imagine her reaction to marriage and babies...
Has anybody been in a similar situation and can offer advice? Even without the negative behavior stuff, some practical moving in together while leaving space for poly advice is good too.

Quantum network
Quantum networks form an important element of quantum computing and quantum cryptography systems. Quantum networks allow for the transportation of quantum information between physically separate quantum systems. In distributed quantum computing, network nodes within the network can process information by serving as quantum logic gates. Secure communication can be implemented using quantum networks through quantum key distribution algorithms.
Optical quantum networks using fiber optic links or free-space links play an important role transmitting quantum states in the form of photons across large distances. Optical cavities can be used to trap single atoms and can serve as storage and processing nodes in these networks.

Quantum key distribution[edit]
Many existing quantum networks are designed to support quantum key distribution (QKD) between classical computing environments. In this application, the quantum network facilitates the sharing of a secret encryption key between two parties. Unlike classical key distribution algorithms such as Diffie-Hellman key exchange, quantum key distribution provides security through physical properties rather than the difficulty of a mathematical problem.
The first quantum key distribution protocol, BB84, was proposed by Charles Bennett and Gilles Brassard in 1984 and has been implemented in a number of research quantum networks. In this protocol, qubits are sent from one party to another over an insecure quantum network. Due to the properties of quantum mechanics and the no-cloning theorem, it is impossible for an eavesdropper to determine the key without being detected by the sender and receiver.[1]
While the BB84 protocol relies on the superposition of qubit states to detect eavesdropping, other protocols use entangled qubits. Examples of these protocols include the E91[2] protocol proposed by Artur Ekert, and the BBM92[3] protocol proposed by Charles H. Bennett, Gilles Brassard, and N. David Mermin.
Quantum state transfer[edit]
In a large quantum computing system many separate quantum computers may interact and communicate across a network. In this scenario it is beneficial for the network to support the transmissions of entangled qubits. Consider the following scenario: quantum computers each containing qubits. To transmit the complete state of one quantum computer to another would require bits of information over a classical network. However, using a quantum network the state can be transferred using only qubits. Likewise, if entanglement can be achieved between all computers in the network, the system as a whole will have a combined state spaces of as opposed to for classically connected quantum computers.[4]
Method of operation[edit]
Physical layer[edit]
Over long distances, the primary method of operating quantum networks is to use optical networks and photon based qubits. Optical networks have the advantage of being able to re-use existing optical fiber. Alternately, free space networks can be implemented that transmit quantum information through the atmosphere or through a vacuum.[5]
Fiber optic networks[edit]
Optical networks using existing telecommunication fiber can be implemented using hardware similar to existing telecommunication equipment. At the sender, a single photon source can be created by heavily attenuating a standard telecommunication laser such that the mean number of photons per pulse is less than 1. For receiving, an avalanche photodetector can be used. Various methods of phase or polarization control can be used such as interferometers and beam splitters. In the case of entanglement based protocols, entangled photons can be generated through spontaneous parametric down-conversion. In both cases, the telecom fiber can be multiplex to send non-quantum timing and control signals.
Free space networks[edit]
Free space quantum networks operate similar to fiber optic networks but rely on line of sight between the communicating parties instead of using a fiber optic connection. Free space networks can typically support higher transmission rates than fiber optic networks and do not have to account for polarization scrambling caused by optical fiber.[6]
Cavity-QED networks[edit]
Telecommunication lasers and parametric down-conversion combined with photodetectors can be used for quantum key distribution. However, for distributed quantum entangled systems, it important to be able to store and retransmit quantum information without disrupting the underlying states. Cavity quantum electrodynamics (Cavity QED) is one possible method of doing this. In Cavity QED, photonic quantum states can be transferred to and from atomic quantum states stored in single atoms contained in optical cavities. This allows for the transfer of quantum states between single atoms using optical fiber in addition to the creation of remote entanglement between distant atoms.[7][8]
Noisy channels[edit]
Quantum repeaters[edit]
Long distance communication is hindered by the effects of signal loss and decoherence inherent to most transport mediums such as optical fiber. In classical communication, amplifiers can be used to boost the signal during transmit, however in a quantum network amplifiers cannot be used due to no-cloning theorem. That is, to implement an amplifier, the complete state of the flying qubit would need to be determined, something which is both unwanted and impossible.
An alternate approach is to use quantum teleportation to transmit quantum information (qubits) to the receiver. This avoids the problems associated with sending single photons across a lengthy high-loss transmission line. However, quantum teleportation requires a pair of entangled qubits with one at each end. Quantum repeaters allow entanglement can be established at distant nodes without physically sending an entangled qubit the entire distance.[9]
In this case, the quantum network consists of many short distance links of perhaps tens or hundreds of kilometres. In the simplest case of a single repeater, two pairs of entangled qubits are established: and located at the sender and the repeater, and a second pair and located at the repeater and the receiver. Theses initial entangled qubits can be easily created, for example through parametric down conversion, with one qubit physically transmitted to an adjacent node. At this point, the repeater can perform a bell measurement on the qubits and thus teleporting the quantum state of onto . This has the effect of "swapping" the entanglement such that and are now entangled at a distance twice that of the initial entangled pairs. It can be seen that a network of such repeaters can be used linearly or in a hierarchical fashion to establish entanglement over great distances.[10]
Error correction[edit]
In both classical and quantum communication, errors can be introduced at any point during sending, transmit, or receiving. While redundancy can be used to detect and correct classical errors, redundant qubits cannot be created due to the no-cloning theorem. As a result, other types of error correction must be introduced such as the Shor code or one of a number of more general and efficient codes. All of these codes work by distributing the quantum information across multiple entangled qubits so that arbitrary single qubit errors can be corrected.
In addition to quantum error correction, classical error correction can be employed by quantum networks in special cases such as quantum key distribution. In these cases, the goal of the quantum communication is to securely transmit a string of classical bits. Traditional error correct such as Hamming codes can be applied to the bit string before encoding and transmission on the quantum network.
Entanglement purification[edit]
Quantum decoherence can occur when one qubit from a maximally entangled bell state is transmitted across a quantum network. Entanglement purification allows for the creation of nearly maximally entangled qubits from a large number of arbitrary weakly entangled qubits.
Current status[edit]
|Quantum Network
|DARPA QKD network
|SECOCQ QKD network in Vienna
|Tokyo QKD network
|Hierarchical network in Wuho, China
|Geneva area network (SwissQuantum)
- DARPA Quantum Network
- Starting in the early 2000s, DARPA began sponsorship of a quantum network development project with the aim of implementing secure communication. The network became operational within the BBN Technologies laboratory in late 2003 and was expanded further in 2004 to include nodes at Harvard and Boston Universities. The network consists of multiple physical layers including fiber optics supporting phase-modulated lasers and entangled photons as well free-space links.[11][12]
- SECOQC Vienna QKD network
- From 2003 to 2008 the Secure Communication based on Quantum Cryptography (SECOQC) project developed a collaborative network between a number of European institutions. The architecture chosen for the SECOQC project is a trusted repeater architecture which consists of point-to-point quantum links between devices where long distance communication is accomplished though the use of repeaters.[13]
- Chinese hierarchical network
- In May 2009, a hierarchical quantum network was demonstrated in Wuhu, China. The hierarchical network consists of a backbone network of four nodes connecting a number of subnets. The backbone nodes are connected though an optical switching Quantum Router. Nodes within each subnet are also connected though a optical switch and are connected to the backbone network though a trusted relay.[14]
- Geneva area network (SwissQuantum)
- The SwissQuantum network developed and tested between 2009 and 2011 linked facilities at CERN with the University of Geneva and hepia in Geneva. The SwissQuantum program focused on transitioning the technologies developed in the SECOQC and other research quantum networks into a production environment. In particular the integration with existing telecommunication networks, and it's reliability and robustness.[15]
- Tokyo QKD network
- In 2010, a number of organizations from Japan and the European union setup and tested the Tokyo QKD network. The Tokyo network build upon existing QKD technologies and adopted a SECOQC like network architecture. For the first time, one-time-pad encryption was implemented at high enough data rates to support popular end-user application such as secure voice and video conferencing. Previous large scale QKD networks typically used classical encryption algorithms such as AES for high rate data transfer and use the quantum derived keys for low rate data or for regularly re-keying the classical encryption algorithms.[16]

The news of note from opening day at Buffalo Bills Training Camp.
The Buffalo Bills announced that the team has signed DT Casey Walker and released DE Cedric Reed.
After being disappointed with his play in his first season in Buffalo and an off the field incident, LeSean McCoy sounds like a leader who has his priorities in order heading into the 2016 campaign.
The news was already flowing at Bills training camp Friday as the players all reported by the deadline at St. John Fisher.
The Buffalo Bills today announced that the team has placed LB Manny Lawson and WR Kolby Listenbee on the Active/Non-Football Injury list.
Stephon Gilmore intended to report to training camp on time all along. A contract extension is what he and the Bills both want, but it's clear that the cornerback has a firm idea of what he believes he's worth.
Fourth-year cornerback Nickell Robey made the decision to legally change his last name to honor his late mother.
In the few short weeks leading up to training camp, Bills defensive tackle Marcell Dareus made appearances in some pretty notable places. For those who missed it, here's a breakdown of where Dareus, and his signature captain's hat, went this offseason.
The last 16 years haven't brought any postseason success for the Bills, but Buffalo's ownership is committed to the plan laid out by GM Doug Whaley designed to create sustained stability and postseason success.
He was one of the league's best quarterbacks when it came to passer rating and touchdown to interception ratio, but Tyrod Taylor was still learning on the job as a starting QB. With a year of starting experience can he take the next step and approach franchise caliber status?
The shortcomings of the 2015 defense has been used as fuel by players who feel with the same defensive coordinator for the first time in six years and rededicated unit that they can return their defense to top 10 status.
He's not completely sure what his workload will be at the outset of training camp. That's up to the Bills medical and athletic training staff. But Sammy Watkins assures his surgically repaired foot is ready for anything.
LeSean McCoy by his own admission didn't play at an elite level in 2015. Can the Bills feature back dominate games like he used to in 2016?
Second-year WR Dez Lewis made an impressive case for himself to be the team's third receiver behind Sammy Watkins and Robert Woods, but things can change at camp when the pads go on.
It's been 14 years since since a Buffalo Bills wide receiver had a big enough year to make the Pro Bowl. Will Sammy Watkins make it in 2016?
Entering his second season with the Bills, CB Ronald Darby is already being touted as an NFL up-and-comer at cornerback.
The 2015 season proved almost magical for Ronald Darby. The rookie far exceeded expectations and became one of the fastest rising cornerbacks in the league. Here's why he figures to be even better in 2016.

Lucchesi Gives It a Shot
The Phillies needed a new manager for the 1970 season so General Manager John Quinn reached into the Phillies farm system to get him. Frank Lucchesi was a minor league player who never threatened to make it the Majors as a player, but it turned out he was pretty good at managing, He began managing in 1956 in the low minors and worked his way up to AAA where he was the skipper of the pennant-winning Eugene Emeralds of the Pacific Coast League in 1969. Fourteen years in the system, he was one of those loyal worker bees that could be relied on to be there on time and put in a good days work. John Quinn liked everything about this man. It was his time. He only wished he had a better team to hand over.
Frank Lucchesi was just glad to be in the Bigs. He would bring his energy and optimism to the Phillies clubhouse and dugout. He was 43 yearsold, and he knew how to win. So there he was on opening day, gathered at home plate to exchange lineup cards for the first time. He stepped back and looked around, he wanted to take it all in – the storied Connie Mack Stadium, almost 16,000 spectators, half capacity but more than he was used to seeing in the minors. He was a major leaguer.
When he turned to the business at hand, he saw that the four umpires (Imagine that! Four umpires.), and the Cubs' manager were all staring at him. "Come on, punk, let's get this over with," snarled the wrinkle-faced old man in the Cubs' uniform; it was 65 year-old Leo Durocher, a near legend already, and still active in his 31st year as a big league manager, with more than 3,500 wins in his pocket. Lucchesi was overmatched from the start. "Sorry, Mister Durocher," he said as he handed over his card. The Lip scanned the card, noting the names Bowa and Doyle at the top, then sneered, "You got no shot, punk."
Durocher may have been right in the long run, but not today. It was Chris Short against Fergie Jenkins, a repeat of last year's opener, but the result was different. Short cranked up a complete game, five-hit shutout, Denny Doyle began his major league career with three straight hits, including a two-out third inning RBI triple that gave Short all the runs he would need in a 2-0 win, and the Phillies led the league. Frank Lucchesi was a happy man.
The second game of the 1970 Phillies' season was a night game, and they won again, on Deron Johnson's three-run seventh-inning home run. In Game Three, Woodie Fryman shut out the Pirates, 2-0, and Lucchesi was delerious; could it be this easy? Then came the reality, Pirates' lefty Luke Walker blanked the Phils 4-0, starting a seven-game losing streak, capped by consecutive shutouts handed them in New York by Mets' two future Hall of Famers, Tom Seaver and Nolan Ryan.
Durocher was right – the Phils had no shot; for the season, they were shut out 15 times, six times with lefty Grant Jackson (5-15) on the mound. The team average was .238 and they had no .300 hitters; Denny Doyle, after his glorious start, hit .208. They finished 73-88, fifth in the six-team NL East, a half-game ahead of Montreal.By max blue

Hi, I love the plugin, working perfectly, but....
I'd like to use it to have a javascript tabbed display with 7 tabs, one for each day, which when clicked, show the events for their respective days. (Like this)
Ideally implemented like this...

Today

php today + 1

php today + 2 (and so on)

[google-calendar-events id="2" type="list-grouped" title="" max="25"]
...But to do that I would have to enclose each day of events in a div class called simpleTabsContent I think. Is that possible? And would that cause problems that can't be fixed? (I managed to get the ul that each day sits in styled to look how I need it but, but I can't get the tabs to work with ul's, I need the div class.
I was hoping I can do some small edits to gogle-calendar-events.php and the css to get what I need?
Thanks in advance for any help!

If that happens Lieberman, if he remains true to form, will sidle gingerly leftward and go back to pretending to be a Democrat.
Lieberman's loyalties are to Isreal, not to America. That being said, there are plenty of Dems who fear the Isreali lobby enough to keep their mouths shut. Like the Cuban lobby, they have political power that can be used destroy careers.
Last time I checked, LIEberman was elected by the people in the state he lives in.
Until they change their minds it doesn't matter what the rest of America thinks.
There's a difference between being a cuckold fetishist and a cuckold.
since Congress' poll ratings are so low anyway, why not just go ahead and kick Lieberman out to the sidelines, blame all the inaction on him until October
Sounds like that should put him in a free and clear position to run as McCain's VP... (If he doesn't offer Hillary the slot.)
Will, the voters of Connecticut decide whether or not Lieberman will get re-elected next time around. However, they do not get to decided if Lieberman will continue to play with the Democrats. Techncially, he is an Independent who caucuses with the Democrats, and only because the Democrats allow him to (they are not at all obligated to).
Right now he can pretty much say and do anything he wants because the Democrats cannot afford to toss him out of the caucus. If they do, they throw the majority over to the Republicans. The D's hold exactly 50 seats at present. Lieberman caucusing with them gives them a majority of 1, and control of all of the committees. If he caucuses with the Republicans instead, Cheney breaks the tie, and the Republicans would then control all of the committees.
Come November, if the Democrats pick up even a couple of seats, they will no longer need him to hold the majority. All of his leverage disappears. I say the Democrats should toss him from the party immediately after the election. The voters of Connecticut can do whatever the hell they want with him after that. I have no use for him whatsoever.
Even if nonLieberman Dems have 60 seats on any given vote there will always be a few who peel off and we will need a few R's and maybe that asshole from Ct. Lieberman.
Oh yes, too bad Obama supported him....
Meanwhile we have Brian Baird right here in Washington being all pro war and shit and if we don't take care of him who are we to complain about Joe L.?
What we should insist on is that first thing under Pres. Obama they vote to do away with the stupid rule that you need 60 votes to stop a filibuster.
Who lets anyone else filibuster in any kind of meeting? Why empower the minority?
Esp. a minority of one?
Let's just pray that in the spirit of "bipartisanship", McCain taps Lieberman as a VP running mate.
We all know how excited America was by an old, dull, wrinkly Jewish man* the last time Lieberman was on a presidential ticket. Please, take our lead anchor.
* Subtract "dull" from that, and we get Don Rickles. Now THAT would complement the Obama ticket! The classy prez and the out of control madman VP. I like it... Obama/Rickles '08! Yes we can, you hockey pucks!
Has he held any hearings as head of the Senate Committee on Homeland Security & Governmental Affairs?? Waxman has worked his staff non-stop and what has Lieberman/Collins done?? Nada?
McCain - Lieberman '08 !!!!1!!!
A real winning ticket !!!1!
You're confusing the cuckold fetish with the "hotwives" fetish. They're quite different; the cuckold fetish has an emasculation subtext quite lacking in the usual "hotwife" fetish.
