North Carolina concludes the 2012 season Saturday, Nov. 24, when the Tar Heels welcome Maryland to Kenan Stadium. Carolina will honor 17 seniors in a pregame ceremony prior to kickoff. Over the last four years, those seniors have won 30 games and advanced to three bowl games. A win would give the Tar Heels an 8-4 record, marking their best winning percentage in a season since 1997 (11-1).
Carolina and Maryland are meeting for the first time since 2008 in a series the Tar Heels lead 35-33-1. In 2008, Carolina let a late lead slip away as Maryland came back for a 17-15 Terps victory in rainy College Park. The last time Maryland visited Chapel Hill came in 2007 when the Tar Heels won 16-13. Carolina leads the series at Kenan Stadium, 17-11-1.
Carolina is 5-1 at home this year and a win over Maryland would match UNC's 6-1 mark at home in 2011. The Tar Heels have never won 12 games at home over a two year stretch since Kenan Stadium was constructed in 1927. On four different occasions the Tar Heels have won 11 games in back-to-back home seasons, most recently accomplishing the feat in 1993 (6-1) and 1994 (5-1).
The Tar Heels are coming off a 37-13 victory at Virginia last Thursday night. QB Bryn Renner completed 29 of 36 attempts for 315 yards and three touchdowns, while the UNC defense completed a remarkable turnaround from its previous outing against Georgia Tech. After allowing 68 points to the Yellow Jackets, Carolina surrendered just 13 points to UVA and twice shut down the Cavaliers in the red zone.
Maryland, which is playing with a converted linebacker at quarterback, lost 41-14 to Florida State.
85 Years Ago Today
- Saturday's game vs. Maryland marks the 85th anniversary - to the day - of the Kenan Stadium Dedication Game against Virginia in 1927. The Tar Heels won that game 14-13. It was actually the second game played in Kenan Stadium. The first was played November 12, 1927, a 27-0 whipping of Davidson.
- The Dedication Game was played November 24, 1927 against Virginia and played on Thanksgiving Day. An overflow crowd of 28,000 filled Kenan on the 24th. The original capacity was 24,000. North Carolina Governor Angus W. McLean was in attendance as was Virginia Governor Harry Byrd.
- That game vs. Virginia was the 32nd in the series and Carolina held on to win 14-13. UNC had a 14-0 lead going into the fourth quarter. Virginia scored twice in the final stanza. The Cavaliers missed an extra point after their first score which proved to be the deciding factor.
Seniors Make An Impact
- Carolina's 17 seniors this year include PK Casey Barth, OL Travis Bond, WR Jheranie Boyd, LB Josh Bridges, OG Jonathan Cooper, DE Adam Curry, B Dion Guy, WR Erik Highsmith, OG Peyton Jenest, DB Pete Mangum, OL Jordan Marsh, FB Kenny Owens, FB Devon Ramsay, LB Kevin Reddick, S Gene Robinson, OT Brennan Williams and DT Sylvester Williams.
- Not counting specialist Casey Barth, that group has combined to start 227 games. OG Jonathan Cooper (46), LB Kevin Reddick (42) and WR Erik Highsmith (41) have started more than 40 games in their careers.
- DT Sylvester Williams has started every game since he enrolled from junior college last year (24) and will be making his 25th and final start of his college career this Saturday against Maryland. Williams is projected as an NFL draft pick and he leads the team with six sacks.
- Although he will not be available Saturday due to an ankle injury suffered in the Georgia Tech game, PK Casey Barth is Carolina's all-time leading scorer with 358 points. A starter since his freshman year, Barth made a school-record 66 career field goals and 160 extra points.
- Four-year starter Kevin Reddick is the leader of the Tar Heel defense. He tops the team with 78 tackles and 15.5 tackles for losses. He also had 5.5 sacks and five pass breakups.
- WR Erik Highsmith has started since his freshman year and enters the Maryland game with 164 receptions, which ranks fourth in UNC history. He is just one shy of Na Brown (165 from 1995-98) for third place.
A Win Over Maryland Would...
- Improve the Tar Heels to 8-4 overall, 5-3 in ACC action. The last time Carolina won eight games was the 2010 season after beating Tennessee in the Music City Bowl in Nashville. Carolina last won eight regular season games in 2008 and 2009, but those wins were vacated due to NCAA penalty.
- Be Carolina's first win over Maryland since a 16-13 victory in 2007. It would be just the second win over the Terps in the last seven meetings. Maryland won four straight from 2001-05.
Three-Straight Over Virginia
- North Carolina improved to 7-4 overall and 4-3 in the ACC with a 37-13 victory over Virginia. It was the Tar Heels' third-straight win over the Cavaliers and second consecutive win in Charlottesville. The three-game streak is the longest over Virginia since Carolina won nine straight from 1974-82.
Long Drives
- Carolina's 97-yard touchdown drive across the third and fourth quarters against Virginia was its longest of the season. The Tar Heels also had a 91-yard scoring drive earlier in the game, making it back-to-back weeks with two drives of 90+ yards. The Tar Heels had scoring drives of 93 and 94 yards against Georgia Tech.
Rookie Davis provides spark
- True freshman WR Quinshad Davis was inserted into the starting lineup in the second week of the season and has provided the Tar Heels with a team-high 52 catches for 641 yards and three touchdowns.
- Against Virginia, Davis finished with Carolina single-game freshman records of 16 catches and 178 yards. The previous records were nine catches (Octavus Barnes vs. Texas, 1994 Sun Bowl) and 171 yards (Hakeem Nicks at Notre Dame, 2006). The 16 catches match the ACC record for all players, tied most recently by Wake Forest's Michael Campanero. Davis is one of six ACC players with 16 receptions in a game. Davis has now established a new season high for catches in each of the last three games and a new high for yards in each of the last two weeks.
- Davis also has established a new school record for receptions in a season by a freshman with 52. Giovani Bernard held the record previously with 45 catches in 2011.
- Davis now ranks tied for fifth in ACC history for catches by a freshman and seventh in receiving yards by a freshman.
- Davis scored his first career receiving touchdown against Idaho, a 35-yard catch in the first quarter. Davis also scored another 35-yard receiving touchdown in the third quarter.
Offense On Record-Setting Pace
- North Carolina's offense is on pace to set single-season records for scoring average, passing offense per game and total offense per game.
- The Tar Heels are third in the ACC and 11th in the country with a 40.2 scoring average. The single-season school record for points per game is 35.1 set in 1993. Carolina has scored 30 or more points in eight of 11 games this season. UNC has scored 43 or more points in games against Idaho (66), Elon (65), Georgia Tech (50), Virginia Tech (48) and NC State (43). The Tar Heels also scored 30 at Duke, 34 at Louisville and 37 at Virginia.
- At home, Carolina is averaging 49.3 points per game in six contests.
- Carolina is third in the ACC and 17th in the country in total offense, averaging 484.2 yards of offense per game. As long as Carolina registers positive yardage against Maryland, the Tar Heels will top the single-season school record of 441.8 set in 1983. Carolina has accumulated 500 or more yards of total offense four times this season - 524 vs. Elon, 575 vs. Idaho, 533 vs. Virginia Tech and 570 vs. NC State. Carolina's fewest yards this season was 410 vs. Louisville.
- The Tar Heels are third in the ACC and 26th in the nation in passing offense, averaging 290.5 passing yards per game. The single-season school record of 266.6 was set in 2002. QB Bryn Renner has thrown for more than 300 yards in each of the last three games.
- UNC set a single-game school record for points with 66 against Idaho. The previous record was 65 against Virginia Medical in 1914 and Wake Forest in 1928. It marks the 12th time in school history Carolina has scored 60 or more points in a game. This is the first time Carolina has scored 60 or more points twice in the season. Carolina also set a school record for its largest margin of victory at 66 points, breaking the former record of 65 in 1914 against Virginia Medical and 1928 against Wake Forest.
Bernard & Blue One Shy Of Combo Record
- TB Giovani Bernard and A.J. Blue have combined for 27 total touchdowns so far in 2012, one shy of Curtis Johnson (16) and Leon Johnson's (12) school-record 28 in 1993. Bernard leads the team with 18 touchdowns and Blue ranks second with nine.
Boston Leads UNC's Interception Collection
- Safety Tre Boston scored his first career touchdown on a 36-yard interception return in the second quarter at Virginia. Boston caught the ball near the right hash and ran diagonally across the field before running over a would-be tackler at the goal line. The interception was Boston's fourth of the season and the eighth of his career.
- The Tar Heels rank 14th in the country with 15 interceptions. Eight different Tar Heels have recorded at least one pick. Boston and cornerback Tim Scott lead the team with four apiece.
Cooper Considered Nation's Top Offensive Guard
- Ranked by many analysts as the nation's top offensive guard, senior Jonathan Cooper made four midseason All-America teams (Phil Steele, SI.com, ESPN.com and The Sporting News). Cooper also made NFL draft expert Mel Kiper's Big Board (top 30 players regardless of position) and is part of an offensive line that was recently ranked best in the country by Kiper and ESPN analyst Todd McShay.
- Twice this season Cooper has been named the ACC Offensive Lineman of the Week. He earned the award after a standout performance in Carolina's 18-14 win over Miami and following the Tar Heels' 43-35 victory over NC State.
- Cooper played 85 snaps, posted 18 knockdown blocks and graded out at 90 percent as the Tar Heels recorded 570 yards of offense in a 43-35 victory over NC State. Carolina rushed for 212 yards, averaging 5.4 yards per carry. Cooper has not allowed a sack all season.
- Cooper played all 84 offensive snaps, graded out at a team-best 93 percent, posted 14 knockdown blocks and did not allow a sack in an 18-14 win at Miami. Cooper helped pave the way for Carolina's 272 rushing yards, which included 177 from Giovani Bernard, 77 from Romar Morris and 14 from A.J. Blue. Both of Carolina's touchdowns came on the ground. On the first scoring drive, Cooper had key blocks on three plays that went for 10-or-more yards, including the 10-yard touchdown run by Bernard.
- Cooper was the lead blocker on several of Giovani Bernard's long runs in the Tar Heels' 48-34 win over Virginia Tech. Cooper and the Tar Heels rushed for 339 yards, the first time the Tar Heels have gone over 300 yards rushing as a team since 2004. The 339 yards rushing are the third-most ever allowed by Virginia Tech.
- North Carolina is promoting Cooper for several postseason honors with a weekly video feature called "Hangin' with Mr. Cooper."
Carolina-Georgia Tech Set Records
- Carolina and Georgia Tech combined to score 118 points, the most in ACC history, in the Yellow Jackets' 68-50 victory. The previous record for a game involving an ACC team was 110 (Virginia def. Tulane, 63-47, in 1968). The previous mark for two ACC teams in the same game was 106 (Clemson def. Wake Forest, 82-24, in 1981). The 68 points by Georgia Tech and the 50 points by UNC are also the most for each team in series history.
- Georgia Tech's 68 points were the most ever allowed by UNC at home and the most ever allowed by UNC to a conference opponent. It was the second-highest total by an opponent in school history (69 by Louisville in 2005). The previous high at home was 59 by Maryland in 2002. The previous high by an ACC opponent was 63 by Florida State in 2000.
- The 50 points are the most UNC has ever scored in a loss (previous high was 47 against Syracuse in triple overtime at home in 2003). It is also the most points in a loss in an ACC game in history. The previous mark was 48 by Duke (54-48 loss against Wake Forest in 2010) and by Virginia (55-48 loss against Duke in 2010).
Big Rushing attack
- Carolina is averaging 194.3 rushing yards per game, the highest since averaging 226.9 in 1994. The 1994 season was also the last time Carolina averaged more than 200 yards rushing.
- Carolina rushed for 339 yards vs. Virginia Tech, 287 yards vs. Idaho, 272 at Miami and 212 vs. NC State.
- Carolina rushed for 339 yards against Virginia Tech, the first time the Tar Heels have had more than 300 rushing yards as a team since 2004 (341 vs. William & Mary). The 339 rushing yards were the third-most ever allowed by Virginia Tech.
- All three Tar Heel running backs are averaging more than 5.0 yards per rush, including Giovani Bernard (6.8), Romar Morris (5.6) and A.J. Blue (5.3).
- Carolina's 27 rushing touchdowns are the most since a school-record 39 in 1993.
Fast-Paced offense
- Carolina is averaging 74.6 plays per game. Last season, Carolina averaged 62.5 plays per game. Carolina ran 86 plays vs. NC State, 84 plays against Miami and 82 against Wake Forest. The 86 plays vs. NC State were the most for a UNC team since it had 87 in a triple-overtime game vs. Syracuse in 2003. It is the most in a regulation game since running 88 plays at Virginia in 2000.
- Twenty-nine of Carolina's 59 scoring drives this year have taken two minutes or less and 10 of those have been less than a minute.
Special Teams Under larry Fedora
- Larry Fedora emphasizes making game-changing plays in every game on special teams. Fedora's special teams have blocked three punts this season, returned a kickoff for a touchdown vs. Virginia Tech, returned punts for touchdowns vs. Elon and NC State, converted 2-point conversions against Miami, NC State (2) and Georgia Tech, and converted a successful fake field goal at Duke.
- The Tar Heels have 34 punt returns for 484 yards, compared to just 17 for 84 yards for UNC's opponents. Carolina ranks first in the nation with 484 punt return yards and is ranked 10th with a 14.2 average return. The punt return unit is coached by head coach Larry Fedora. The Tar Heels had just 128 punt return yards in 2010 and 74 in 2011.
- Giovani Bernard's 74-yard punt return for a touchdown against NC State came with 13 seconds remaining and propelled the Tar Heels to a 43-35 win. Prior to Bernard's 74-yard return, the longest punt return NC State had allowed this season was an 8-yard return by South Alabama. The punt return was Carolina's first for a score against NC State since Eric Lewis had a 84-yarder in 1986.
- Bernard's 74-yard punt return came on the 18th and final punt of the day (for both teams). Prior to that play, the teams had combined for just nine punt return yards on the previous 17 kicks. NC State finished the game with one punt return yard on two returns; Carolina had eight punt return yards on its first eight returns.
- Carolina blocked a pair of Idaho punts in the first quarter, one by Romar Morris (his second of the season) and one by Pete Mangum. It marked the first time that Carolina has blocked multiple punts in a game since Bruce Carter blocked three punts against Connecticut in 2008.
- Carolina established a school and ACC record for single-game punt return yards with 260 on nine returns against Elon. The previous UNC mark of 225 yards was set against VMI in 1935. The previous ACC mark was 227 by Clemson against Georgia Tech in 1987.
Extra Point Record Intact
- Carolina has made 170 consecutive extra points (Casey Barth 126, Thomas Moore 44). The Tar Heels have not missed an extra point since facing The Citadel in the 2009 season opener. Carolina ranks fourth in the country in games played (49) without a miss. The Tar Heels are also fourth in the nation in consecutive extra points without at miss (170).
Renner Throwing TDs
- QB Bryn Renner has completed 248 of 383 attempts for 3,051 yards, 23 touchdowns and seven interceptions this season. He ranks third all-time at UNC with 49 career touchdown passes, third with 488 career completions and third in career passing yards with 6,151.
- Renner is the only quarterback in UNC history to throw for 3,000 yards in two different seasons. He also threw for 3,086 yards in 2011. The only other quarterback to top 3,000 yards in a season is record-holder T.J. Yates, who had 3,418 in 13 games in 2010. Renner enters his 12th games of the season against Maryland 367 yards shy of Yates.
- Renner broke his own school record by passing for 708 yards in consecutive games, the second time this season he has established that record. Entering the season, Darian Durant held the record with 683 yards in consecutive games against NC State and Arizona State in 2002. Renner topped that mark with 684 against Louisville and East Carolina. He had 358 in UNC's previous game against NC State and 350 against Georgia Tech for 708.
- Three times this year, Renner has surpassed his previous year's single-game yardage high of 338. He passed for a career-best 363 yards at Louisville, 358 vs. NC State and 350 vs. Georgia Tech.
- Renner completed 30 of 47 passes for 358 yards in the win over NC State. Those were career highs in completions and attempts and the 358 yards are the second most in his career (had 363 earlier this year against Louisville). Renner's 30 completions are the fourth-most in a game by a Tar Heel in history. The 30 were the most since TJ Yates had a school-record 33 against the Wolfpack in 2010.
- Renner has thrown for multiple touchdowns in seven of 11 games this season and 16 times in his career.
- Renner tied the UNC single-game record with five touchdown passes against Louisville, a mark he shares with Darian Durant (at Arizona State in 2002) and Kevin Anthony (vs. Wake Forest 1985). Renner finished with a career-best 363 yards, which is the eighth-best single-game total in UNC history. He completed 26 of 41 attempts and averaged 14.0 yards per completion. Renner's previous single-game high in touchdown passes was four vs. ECU in 2011.
Hibbard Among Top Punters In ACC
- Carolina is first in the league and 10th in the country in net punting (40.5 avg) largely due to the improvement of sophomore punter Tommy Hibbard. Hibbard ranks second in the ACC averaging 42.8 yards per punt, compared to 39.2 last year.
- Hibbard had nine punts for an average of 41.2 yards, including a long of 60, in the win over NC State. He also had a pair of successful 2-point conversions on passes to tight end Jack Tabb. The final conversion came after Giovani Bernard's punt return for a touchdown. Carolina planned to kick the extra point, but Hibbard dropped the snap and then rolled out to his right to find Tabb.
- Hibbard punted four times for 173 yards, a 43.2 average, including a long of 54, in Carolina's 18-14 win at Miami. However, his most the most impact after Carolina scored a touchdown to take a 13-7 lead. On the extra point attempt, Hibbard took the snap and passed to Eric Ebron for two points and a 15-7 lead. That proved to be an important 2-point conversion as the Tar Heels held a four-point lead (instead of 3) as the game wound down. Miami drove to the Tar Heels' 29-yard line on its last possession, but could not kick a game-tying field goal. Instead Miami was forced to try to score a touchdown and were stopped by the Carolina defense. Hibbard also successfully got off his last punt of the game with under two minutes remaining despite a poor snap.
Morris Does It All
- Redshirt freshman Romar Morris of Salisbury, N.C., is a dual threat out of the backfield. The speedy tailback has 69 carries for 386 yards and two touchdowns, while also catching 12 passes for 204 yards and two touchdowns.
- Morris posted a career-high 202 all-purpose yards in Carolina's 39-34 loss at No. 19 Louisville. He had 149 yards receiving, 23 yards rushing and 30 yards on kick returns. He also blocked a punt in the fourth quarter, which led to a Carolina touchdown on the next play. Morris became the first Tar Heel to block a punt since Bruce Carter blocked one at Rutgers in 2010. He was named the ACC's receiver of the week for his effort vs. the Cardinals.
- Morris became the first Tar Heel running back with a 100-yard receiving game since Anthony Elzy had 178 vs. NC State in 2010. Morris caught five passes for 149 yards and scored on a 44-yard wheel route down the sideline and a 50-yard catch-and-run that pulled the Tar Heels to within five with 4:23 remaining. Morris averaged 18.4 yards per touch against the Cards.
- Morris gained 70 yards rushing on 14 carries against Wake Forest. He scored his first collegiate touchdown, a 4-yard run in the third quarter. He made his Carolina debut in the win over Elon, rushing 10 times for 49 yards. He also caught one ball for 30 yards. Morris entered the season as the backup to Giovani Bernard.
Blue Provides Leadership At Tailback
- Junior A.J. Blue ranks second on the team with 79 carries for 415 yards and nine touchdowns.
- Blue carried eight times for 57 yards and a pair of touchdowns, his fifth and sixth rushing touchdowns of the season, in a 48-34 win over Virginia Tech. Blue scored on a 1-yard plunge in the second quarter and a 13-yard run in the third.
- Blue made his first career start at tailback in place of injured starter Giovani Bernard at Wake Forest. Blue came into the game with 210 career rushing yards, but gained a career-best 106 on 19 carries against the Deacs. His previous single-game high was 39 yards against Elon in the previous week. Blue played as a true freshman in 2009 as a wildcat quarterback, redshirted in 2010 and rushed for 138 yards in backup duty last year.
- Blue also got the start at Louisville and finished with 43 yards on seven carries, a 6.1 average.
Ebron Sets Tight End Marks
- Eric Ebron has already set the single-season school record for receiving yards by a tight end with 546. He broke the record of 448 set by Mike Chatham in 1979 in the eighth game of the year at Duke. A native of Greensboro, N.C., Ebron has 37 catches for a team-best 568 yards and three touchdowns. His 37 receptions are a UNC single-season record for receptions by a tight end. The previous mark of 36 was held by Ryan Taylor in 2010.
Highsmith Highlights Receiving Corps
- Senior Erik Highsmith headlines Carolina's depleted receiving corps. Highsmith is tied for the team lead with 52 receptions for 560 yards and four touchdowns.
- Highsmith now has 164 career receptions, which ranks fourth all-time at UNC, just one behind Na Brown (165 from 1995-98).
- Highsmith had his second career two-touchdown game in the win at Virginia. He caught a 9-yard TD pass in the first quarter and a 20-yarder in the fourth. Highsmith also had a two-touchdown game vs. Wake Forest in 2011.
- Highsmith scored his first career rushing touchdown in the first quarter of the NC State game on a 45-yard reverse. Highsmith also gained 41 yards on a pass play earlier in the quarter when Marquise Williams lined up at quarterback and lateraled to Renner, who threw downfield to Highsmith.
Tapley Tar Heels Top WR target in End Zone
- WR Sean Tapley is tied with tailback Giovani Bernard with five touchdown receptions this season. He also has a kickoff return for a touchdown. Tapley scored on a 3-yard TD pass from Bryn Renner in the fourth quarter of Carolina's 43-35 victory over NC State. Tapley has 19 catches for 308 yards and is averaging 16.1 yards per catch.
- Tapley scored his first career touchdown, a 62-yard catch-and-run, in the third quarter of Carolina's 27-6 win over ECU.
- Tapley caught two passes for 43 yards including a 19-yard touchdown in the third quarter of Carolina's 48-34 win over Virginia Tech. He also returned a kickoff 94 yards for a touchdown in the first quarter and was named the ACC Specialist of the Week. It was Tapley's first kickoff return touchdown and the first for Carolina since T.J. Thorpe took a kickoff back 100 yards at Clemson in 2011. Tapley now has four touchdowns on the season. The kickoff return touchdown was the first allowed by Virginia Tech since 1993. The Hokies had gone an FBS-record 237 consecutive games without allowing a kickoff return touchdown.
Reddick Captains The Defense
- A preseason All-America candidate, Kevin Reddick is in his fourth year as a starter at middle linebacker. He is first on the team with 78 tackles and leads the team with 15.5 tackles for losses.
- Reddick had a pair of sacks against NC State, including one on the Wolfpack's final possession. That sack pushed the Wolfpack back nine yards and ultimately forced the punt which Bernard returned for the game-winning touchdown.
- Against Elon, he had five tackles and assisted on a tackle for loss in limited duty. He had nine stops and a tackle for loss at Wake Forest. Against Louisville, Reddick rebounded from a subpar first half performance to post four tackles, two tackles for losses and a sack in the second half.
- Reddick caused a fumble with his sack of ECU quarterback Shane Carden in the third quarter of the ECU game. The New Bern, N.C., senior finished with 9 tackles, a sack and a forced fumble.
- Reddick recorded seven tackles, had 2.5 tackles for losses, assisted on a sack, added a quarterback hurry and broke up two passes in a 48-34 win over Virginia Tech. On Virginia Tech's last play from scrimmage, Reddick and DT Sylvester Williams combined to sack QB Logan Thomas for an 11-yard loss.
Sly Headlines Defensive Line
- Senior defensive tackle Sylvester Williams turned down an opportunity to leave early for the NFL and returned for his senior season. A junior college standout, Williams improved his resume with his outstanding play during his first season with the Tar Heels. He started every game and finished the season with 54 tackles, including seven for losses, and had one interception and three pass breakups. Williams is a raw talent, who had an interesting journey to major college football, which included stops at Modine Manufacturing Company and Coffeyville Community College in Kansas. After two seasons at Coffeyville, he earned junior college All-America honors in 2010 and accepted a scholarship to Carolina.
- Williams is first on the team with 6.0 sacks and third with 12.5 tackles for losses.
- Williams had three tackles, a tackle for loss and assisted on a sack in UNC's 48-34 win over Virginia Tech. Williams was part of a defensive effort that limited the Hokies to just 40 yards rushing, the fewest by Virginia Tech since the 2007 season opener.

Last December, I published three things I'd tell your CIO. Since then, I've spent time with dozens and dozens of sourcing and vendor management professionals, CIOs, and leaders of application development and delivery, including last week's Paris Forrester Forums. Most days, I share our ongoing research on what impact today's software-fueled, consumer-led digital disruption has on your ability to meet and exceed the expectations of your customers and the employees serving them. For some folks, software and software development remains a commodity. But for many, the need to deliver great software has taken hold of 2013 planning discussions. With July just around the corner, and as you start 2013 planning, focus on what you need to start delivering great software (remember, software is your business), and keep these three things I'd tell you and your CIO in mind:

But they haven't begun drawing it out, much less filling it. Seems to me they should have made a good start on it by now.

"These are better than expected. I didn't want to spend a lot and therefore went with a postcard and they are really cute. Nice paper quality. Very pleased. I always turn to Tiny Prints for my printing needs and am never disappointed."
"We recently ordered this card and loved the beautiful colors and design. Trees and leaves are totally our style and since it's colorful you can use it any time of year (not just the Fall). We love the simple design of it too. The quality is amazing and we loved that we could personalize the entire thing!"
"Card turned out beautiful. Image quality of the picture we used in the back was perfect. Cards arrived within a few days of ordering."
"We recently moved and sent this card to friend and family. We received so many complements on how cute the card was and that they loved the photo on the back. I love the front because it feels like a cute/fun neighborhood and it truly represented our new home and our new neighbors/friends."
"Our card arrived on time and it looks very nice. The paper quality is good, the design too and we had to change our order and we received all the attention we needed."

Greetings everyone!
Seeing most of the fabulous custom jet packs posted on this forum, encouraged me to try & make one for myself thru fiberglass.
Unfortunately, after searching the net, I am unable to find any technical drawings much less dimensions for making one.
How did you guys achieve yours?
I already have half the mind of maybe buying a 1/6 or 1/4 scale Boba Fett figure and scaling up the Jet Pack dimensions, but thought of asking here first.
Can anybody help?
Thanks in advance!

Hi my name is Christian and I am from Denmark.
I am one of the organizers at this years Game Development Camp. The camp is for 72 high school students, they will apply for one of three roles: programmer, 2D artist and 3D artist. They will be put in one of 12 groups consisting of three programmers, two 3D artists and one 2D. Each group will then have a week to create a video game.
They will develop the concept for their game themselves.
I got a little side tracked. However, at the very last day there is a party and costumes are required. The theme is of course video games and I thought, that I should dress up as Boba Fett. Cool, huh!
I do not have a job and my second year in Digital Entertainment at the university, doesn't start until September. So that leaves me with plenty of time (p.s. the camp is in three months).

Krenzien, Talery and Jepson Earn All-League Honors
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) – The Horizon League announced its 2013 men's soccer all-league honors, and the Green Bay Phoenix had three players recognized on the list as voted on by the league's coaches.
Senior Sam Krenzien (Wauwatosa, Wis.) and junior Lawrence Talery (Coon Rapids, Minn.) were tabbed to the All-League Second Team while Audi Jepson (Green Bay, Wis.) was named to the All-Freshman Team.
Milwaukee's Laurie Bell earned co-player and offensive player of the year honors, sharing player of the year honors with UIC's Bob Novak. UIC swept the remaining major awards, with Josh Beard named the defensive player of the year, Andrew Punta named the freshman and goalkeeper of the year and head coach Sean Phillips taking home coach of the year.
"I'm excited that Sam, Lawrence and Audi were recognized for their contributions this season," head coach Dan Popik said.
Krenzien earned all-conference honors for the third time in his career after being named All-League First Team last season in addition to being on the All-Newcomer Team as a freshman. Krenzien had an outstanding senior campaign, starting all 17 matches while finishing with team-best 11 goals and 26 points. Both totals were personal single-season highs and also ranked him second in the Horizon League. Earlier this season he earned Horizon League Offensive Player of the Week honors after totaling a combined eight points in matches against Eastern Illinois and NJIT.
For his career, Krenzien appeared in 65 matches, totaling 52 points with 22 goals and eight assists. He was also named to the Horizon League Academic Honor Roll three times.
"Sam had a tremendous season and was at the top of the league in all offensive categories," Popik said. "He is a true competitor that gave his best day in and day out. It's an impressive feat to be named to the All-League team two consecutive seasons in different positions."
Talery concluded the 2013 season with 14 points on four goals and a team-high six assists. This season he netted his first career collegiate goal while also adding an assist in a 3-3 draw at then-No. 12 Marquette. He followed that performance with a two-assist showing in a 2-1 win in the home opener against Western Illinois. It is the first postseason honor for Talery.
"Lawrence was a major piece of our offense this season," Popik said. "I believe he has the best first touch on the ball and creativity in the league. He has that wow factor and is a lot of fun to watch play. After missing last season due to an injury he came back and had the best statistical season of his career."
A true freshman, Jepson appeared in 16 of 17 matches for the Phoenix and made 13 starts. In his first collegiate game, he scored what proved to be the game winner in a 3-2 triumph at DePaul. He also added two assists on the season with one each in games at Wright State and UIC.
"Audi is one of the hardest workers on the team and I'm glad to see him get rewarded for his efforts," Popik said. "He improved in many areas over the course of the season. If he continues to work hard and dedicate himself to improving his game he will have a bright future for this program."
The Phoenix concluded its season with an overall record of 7-7-3 while going 2-4-1 in the Horizon League.

Since I will be getting my 4'x8' sheet of 1/8" thick PVC either this week or next week I decided I should start my WIP thread!
The main design of this armor is going to be a medium set up with a few modifications.
The colors will be:
ROTJ red
Metallic Silver
There will be a lot of flowing cloth involved in this build.
- There will be a cowl that hangs from the helmet to mask the whole neck area.
- A hood that goes over the helmet and flows onto the shoulders.
- A regular cape that will be black with either a red mythosaur skull or the Imperial symbol (maybe KDY but not sure)
- A "cape" that will start at the belt line and go down a couple inches past the knees with 1 split in the center of it.
I have started on a Don post 1995 rotocast vinyl helmet that will be getting fiberglassed tomorrow. I am not sure as to do a custom t-visor set up or have the typical visor set up.
The visor will be either be red, black or a mirrored platinum finish.
The chest armor will be all black.
The knees, shoulder pauldrons, and cod piece will be the ROTJ red.
I will have the shin armor and thigh armor also.
I am not sure what I want to do with the gauntlets just yet. They may be silver, black or red. They will either be ESB or ROTJ gauntlets painted and have some other custom little do-hickies on them.
Side note for the helmet.
I have some big things planned for the helmet if everything works out as planned. I will have fans to circulate air with vent holes cut or drilled into the ear pieces.
The helmet will have a commander cody visor on it, or something similar that will have a nice rangefinder contraption that either flips down, or gets slid out of the way.
I want to also put some sort of display inside the helmet as though it were the real deal like Fett's. This will probably be near impossible but I might as well try anyways. The display would be scrolling aurebesh or something.
Now as we all know, fett has a 360deegree FOV. well I want to do something similar to this. This is where that rangefinder comes in handy.
I will get a back up camera and mount it into the keyhole slot on the inside of the helmet. That will then be hooked up to an MP3 player display that is positioned on the rangefinder I then will be able to flip down the rangefinder and be able to see behind me! If it doesn't work in the helmet the camera will be mounted to the BFUK jet pack.
I might DynaMat the inside of the helmet also to keep outside noises out and have some sort of microphone on the armor somewhere to pick up surrounding sounds.
There will ofcourse be a microphone with voice amplifier/radiofyer to let people hear me!
__________________________________________________ __________
I hope you could read that just fine!
More updates tomorrow if I get around to fiberglassing the helmet!
Thanks for reading!

Operation Infinite Patience: December 14, 2011
The bloodshed continues here in Taiji, as today marked the third day out of four where the dolphin hunters located and slaughtered a pod. Two days ago, a family of 13 Risso's dolphins were sentenced to their deaths, with one being taken to a life in captivity- a death sentence in itself. The previous day, three Risso's dolphins were taken for captivity, however four transportation slings were taken into the killing cove. This could only mean that the people in charge of selecting the 'suitable' show dolphins were impressed with three on the first day. They knew there would be another chance to make their fourth selection, and were given this opportunity the following day.
Today, the dolphin killers drove and slaughtered a family of 14 Striped dolphins. This amazing species often leaves many people in awe of their beauty and grace, yet for a dolphin hunter, the 'another day, another dollar, (another dolphin)' mentality comes into play.
The drive was so exhausting for the pod this morning that they barely had any fight left in them once they had reached the killing cove. This was the first (of many) Striped dolphin slaughters I have witnessed where they did not frantically throw themselves onto the jagged cliff face surrounding them in a desperate bid for freedom. Once they reached the tarpaulins, which cover the killing cove beach, their high-pitched vocalizations of pain and their relentless thrashing against the slaughter, rang through the air as a horrific reminder of what these men are hiding.
To see the process whereby a family of dolphins, a tight-knit social unit of intelligent and self-aware beings, becomes nothing but packaged meat on a shelf is nothing short of hideous. The fact that the dolphin hunters, trainers, transporters, and buyers go to any length imaginable to hide what they do just affirms the notion that this is not a proud tradition. Today we saw under the tarps and behind "closed doors." During the transportation of the dead dolphin bodies from the killing cove to the butcher house, one lone dolphin rostrum (beak) was protruding from underneath the tarpaulin, its mouth ajar. We also discovered local dolphin meat buyers cutting up their share of the dolphin meat that had just been remorselessly hacked up. After noticing the eyes of the world were on them, they scurried as fast as they could to hide their actions.
The fact that the Japanese government endorses the killing of these dolphins and prevents others from protecting these animals against unimaginable pain and suffering, all with taxpayer money, is just atrocious. This ridiculous turning away from empathy and towards greed and profit is the act that will destroy any hope left for a healthy future for terrestrial and marine environments across the world. This kind of disconnect from basic conservation issues, as well as the animals themselves, just shows how removed humans have become from our animal counterparts.
For a group or individual, to oppose another individual's right to send a compassionate message is insanity in its simplest form. This week, a video has come to light, which demonstrates not only a lack of basic understanding of conservation and the state of our oceans, but also shows the absolute animosity that mankind can possess after blindly believing the biased, one-sided information of the media. It is extremely important for anyone who learns of an issue through mainstream media to delve further into that issue through other means.
All we have to say is, Sea Shepherd Conservation Society will have a presence here in Taiji every single day of the dolphin-hunting season until the killing stops. If you have an issue you would like to take up with us, well, you know where to find us...
The dolphin hunts, slaughters, and captive imprisonment are still occurring in Taiji. We have managed to significantly reduce the numbers of those killed and captured, but it is not over. We need your help. The killing season is expected to last through the end of March 2012. If you have wanted to join a Sea Shepherd crew, but have not been able to serve at sea, your chance to serve as crew awaits you in Taiji. Campaign Infinite Patience is ongoing and the Cove Guardians need you. We are able to tie the hunters and authorities into knots with just a few Cove Guardians on the ground. Imagine what we could do with 30!
We have learned from the police here that the barrage of emails, calls, and letters to the Fishermen's Union (FU), Taiji Whale Museum, Dolphin Base, the Dolphin Resort hotel, and the Japanese embassies and consulates around the world is getting to them. If you cannot join the crew on the ground you can certainly let the folks at these places have it. Do not let them get away with this. It works. Write to Scott West at cove email@example.com to learn more about joining the Cove Guardian crew (voluntarily and completely at your own cost and risk).


text: Hey all I was just wondering if anyone had been in touch with Foxbatkllr lately? I was trying to get a hold of him via the pm but he wasn't responding so I was a bit concerned that everything is OK. I don't know what other forums he might be a member of to try there so I am kind of stuck just on this forum. Anyway if any one knows of another way to get a hold of him that would be greatly appreciated.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. - Carolina held off Virginia 3-2 (25-18, 21-25, 26-24, 17-25, 15-11) Friday, denying the Cavaliers their first ACC win of the season and improving to 14-4 (5-3) on the season. Senior Emily McGee finished the night with 18 kills and eight digs to lead the Tar Heels.
"I feel very fortunate that we can get out of here and escape with a victory tonight," head coach Joe Sagula said. "Virginia played great tonight and really brought a relentless game. Fortunately for us, they made some service errors that let us off the hook in some tight situations in the last three games."
"Statistically, we shouldn't have won this match, but we just made some good plays at the right time, especially in game five. Virginia played tough, but we were able to hold them off, and we're fortunate to get out of here with a win against a very scrappy team," Sagula said.
Carolina took the first set 25-18 behind a strong .321 team attack, led by three kills apiece from McGee, sophomore Chaniel Nelson and junior Kayla Berringer. Nelson also added four blocks, and McGee added four digs for UNC. The Tar Heels also tallied three aces in the first frame from freshmen Leigh Andrew and Paige Neuenfeldt, and senior Cora Harms.
The Cavaliers responded with a set two 25-21 win, hitting .433 as the Tar Heels had six errors in the frame. Neuenfeldt and Gaffen each had four kills, with sophomore Ece Taner adding five digs and Andrew recording two digs and an ace. Virginia's Natalie Bausback had five kills, three digs and a block to lead the Cavaliers.
Despite a .069 attack in the third frame, the Tar Heels grabbed an extra-points 26-24 win behind six kills from McGee and four digs from Andrew. Senior Tia Gaffen had two blocks, and Taner added three digs to boost the Tar Heels. Bausback had six kills for Virginia.
UVa forced a fifth set by taking the fourth 25-17, hitting .345 to top UNC's .114. Sophomore Lauren Adkins had three kills and two digs for Carolina, but four aces from the Cavaliers with five kills from Bausback and five digs from Emily Rottman was enough for Virginia to even the match at 2-2.
North Carolina opened set five with four-straight points, but the Cavaliers responded with four of their own. Behind three aces from freshman Jordyn Schnabl and four kills from McGee, Carolina held on to take the 15-11 final set win as Taner also added four digs.
The Tar Heels travel to Virginia Tech on Sunday to face the Hokies at 1 p.m. There will be a live webscast of the match and live stats will also be available.

Fearing for their lives James Franco, Jay Baruschel, Seth Rogen, Craig Robinson and Jonah Hill barricade themselves in the mansion in hopes of being rescued. Though as time goes by they start to notice that this is more than a natural disaster. Survival is the key for this group, but they fall short with comedy and sarcasm being the only tools in their arsenal. Can celebrities survive or will their characters ultimately crumble.
In no way can thei movie be reviewed in any real mesurement. I had fun, I laughed and I cringed wth the rest of the crowd. I believe that most people will know if this is their kind of movie. If you liked Superbad and the crew that created it, Youll love This is the End.

A sheriff is an elected law enforcement official who serves a specific county. Many of the responsibilities of the sheriff overlap with those of local police departments. The biggest difference is that a sheriff has jurisdiction over the entire county, while police departments can only enforce laws within city limits.
While sheriffs share law enforcement duties with city police officers, their degree of responsibility varies by jurisdiction. Municipalities with limited resources often contract law enforcement services to the sheriff, especially for complex crimes where they may not be equipped to conduct a detailed investigation.
Sheriffs tend to be more involved in cases where a suspect operates across city lines. Since they have the authority to investigate crimes and make arrests in any city in their jurisdiction, they often act as a bridge between various municipal law enforcement agencies in that jurisdiction.

Giant Eagle requiring card for self-checkout lanes
Updated:PITTSBURGH (AP) (AP)ong> - The Giant Eagle supermarket chain based near Pittsburgh is requiring customers in self-checkout lines to use the store's loyalty card, known as an Advantage Card.
The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette says Giant Eagle confirmed it recently began using technology that requires the cards.
By doing so, Giant Eagle is ensuring customers receive discounts, cash register coupons and gasoline discounts at the chain's GetGo convenience stores. But making customers use the cards also enables the store to follow up with customers who had a problem with a transaction -- such as paying the wrong price for an item -- or an issue with how they paid.
The privately owned chain has about 400 supermarkets and convenience stores in western Pennsylvania, Ohio, Maryland and West Virginia.

Please post if you would like one.
This is not a run! I just looking into how if it is worth my time to start a run. I will update the thread if this becomes a run.
Hyperfoam, is the same foam as E-11 blasters. They do not break apart as fiberglass and styrene. The can take the abuse and keep trooping.

Wheee! Wrote my first Advogato article tonight. Time for bed.

Author and main developer of the Iaijutsu open source web application and content management system, written in Perl. Co-founder of Ninjacode.com, future home of an online publication and community for and by web developers.
Wheee! Wrote my first Advogato article tonight. Time for bed.
This is what I just posted to the iaijutsu-dev list. It may be of wider interest...
It's been quiet on the list, but that's just because life has been crazy lately. But I won't get into that now. :) As it is, ths e- mail might get quite long as I try to convey a bit of what I've been up to in this silence. Here's the breakdown of what I'm going to write about:
As for Iaijutsu, it's far from dead. Still pondering a new name, have yet fo find a compelling replacement that encompasses what it is yet is a tasty sound bite for the corporate types I'm possibly getting funding from within my company. (And, of course, will be recognized and remembered by those who are *not* Japanese. :) )
1: Installation
Have completely rewritten the installation scripts (Makefile.PL and added postinstall). No longer using a canned SQL script to dump initial objects into the database. Now, the initial DB schema is contained in the serializer class itself and deployed by the same. So, the particular serializer you will use has contained within itself everything it needs to prep a database.
Also, the initial set of objects stored in the database are created by the postinstall script, using the system's own API. So far, this has meant MUCH easier work toward supporting a wider range of databases-- my roommate is working on getting it working with MS SQL and Access currently, and we're dreaming of getting it working with a CSV text format or something similar in the hopes of creating a test suite with canned data and few assumptions about the host environment.
Speaking of the serializer-- I've almost completely rewritten it. The previous version worked. And that's about all I can say about it. The new version is a bit of a hybrid between the old one and other object-relational mapping and persistence schemes I've seen. Its not quite complete yet, but the idea is there.
First off, storage is separated from indexing now. Before, they were one in the same, which was bad. Now, objects are serialized using Storable BLOBs and indexed by their ids. Indexing for queries is done by a set of tables indexing property values to object ids.
One one hand, there are tables based on classes, mapping columns directly to class properties. On the other hand is a set of tables mapped to datatypes, mapping to object properties not covered by the existing set of defined class tables.
This is a hybrid approach because most systems I've seen require a picture of your class framework at database creation. All classes and their properties must be defined at installation. This leads to a pretty good mapping of properties to columns and any optimizations which come from that. However, in Iaijutsu, some classes themselves may be objects... classes can be created on the fly, AFTER database creation.
So, the hybrid approach I'm currently working toward allows one to specify a set of class-to-table definitions. However, there is an 'extended' set of datatype tables to index all the other properties of classes not covered by the first set of tables. While this is not quite as efficient, it allows a more dynamic system. Once your application classes have stabilized, you can later on alter the database with more class tables.
Make any sense?
I've rewritten most of the tools for use with Iaijutsu. The insert and extract scripts are gone, replaced by a tool named 'icp'.
icp is Iaijutsu CoPy. It's based on the new IO::Filesystem class I'm working on, of which Iaijutsu::Filesystem is a sub-class. In other words, its like /bin/cp, only it lets you copy to and from Iaijutsu and your local filesystem. It also will allow you in the future to copy between Iaijutsu databases (locally, remotely, whatever...), and even between filesystems. So, when this is working perfectly, importing a site will be as easy as 'icp -vur mysite/ @mysite/'
Also, new in CVS is an FTP daemon. This also uses the Iaijutsu::Filesystem class, along with the Perl Object Environment (POE) to give FTP access to Iaijutsu. So far, I've been using this pretty heavily with emacs and Dreamweaver to author templates and document objects within Iaijutsu's database. There are some quirks and bugs I'm working out, but I've been eating my own dogfood and using the daemon pretty productively so far.
By the way, should you want to use these new features from CVS, or a snapshot I'll be posting tomorrow, you'll need the packages available from the following URLs:
http://www.ninjacode.com/todokeru2/io-filesystem-0.1.tar.gz http://www.ninjacode.com/todokeru2/net-ftp-daemon-0.1.tar.gz
4: New Home Site
Speaking of working productively... There's a new home site for Iaijutsu under construction at: http://www.ninjacode.com:8080/iaijutsu
It may or may not be up when you try to visit it. It may also be broken or in heavy change. But if you like, try the URL, and it'll most likely be up. It's a completely new design and layout, not to mention hosted by Iaijutsu itself.
There is a Slashdot-like news weblog with discussion, as well as sidebar headline syndication components (like Slashdot's Slashboxen) grabbed using RSS objects which (if the scheduler is running) refresh themselves periodically.
So, visit if you like, complain about it, beat it up, tell me what you think. There's not much there yet, but it's a start.
5: Documentation
Unfortunately, not much good news here yet. :( Chasing down the bugs, and adding these last few features, I've been holding off and not having enough time in general to document this beast. But I'm only aobut 6 todo list checkboxen away from being done with coding and getting to writing.
I'm horrible about this! But I'm hoping that, after I'm done with these checkboxen, and do this, and release, I'll have the momentum to continue documentation properly from now on. Also, my day job may soon be more directly supporting me in this by demanding whitepapers and manuals to hand to clients who are using this system.
Thanks for hanging in there!!! (If you still are!)
6: Other projects
Alternating between stealing time from and enhancing development of the core of Iaijutsu itself are the Hivemind and Dentatsu projects.
Hivemind, if you haven't heard me babble about is before, is a groupware project management, task delegatoin, time recording and reporting, and information collection application. It's currently the first and only long term tested and developed project using Iaijutsu, in heavy use by my department at the day job, and recording about a year worth of departmental activity so far. It's really putting the entire system to huge tests, with about 20 users logging into it and making heavy use of it daily. (Okay, so that does't sound very heavy, but it's putting Iaijutsu through its paces at least. And was what dramatically showed how broken my old serializer was)
Dentatsu is currently behind the new Iaijutsu home site. It is what will eventually run Ninjacode.com. Weblogs, discussion fora, member accounts, content rating, polls, distributed editorial ownership, collaborative authoring, etc and so forth... this will be the online publication toolkit. It seems to be currently about 1/3 complete.
Either of these projects (available in hivemind/ and dentatsu/ paths in CVS) may serve as a semi-decent example of what can be done with Iaijutsu currently. However, they are both even less documented than Iaijutsu itself, but I hope they are well commented for those who want to dig.
Also, as a side note, the IO::Filesystem class and FTP daemon may be showing up in my CPAN directory soon as projects spun off from Iaijutsu.
IO::Filesystem is an object oriented encapsulation of a filesystem and all its actions. ie. copy, delete, rename, open/close for write, open/close for read, test (-d, -f, -e, etc), ls, stat, etc... This seems to be something I really needed, and I think others will too. IO::Filesystem::Plain encapsulates the local filesystem, while Iaijutsu::Filesystem encapsulates a virtual filesystem on the Iaijutsu serializer. Also, the package will eventually have a suite of tools developed like 'icp' where common operations can be done on and between filesystem objects.
The FTPd is an general FTP daemon implemented using the Perl Object Environment (POE) toolkit and the IO::Filesystem. It is not bound to Iaijutsu, and will be useful as a general-purpose Perl FTP daemon. Just make an IO::Filesystem subclass, and the FTP daemon will serve files from it.
Thank you!
For what? Well, for reading this far. And for being on the list. Even quiet, I feel like there are people waiting on me to get this done. And for piping up when I mumble an occasional question. :)
Hopefully this wasn't too much of a brain dump!
Again, thanks!

NFL Player Props: Brees best bet for most passing yards, Peterson for rushing yards
When you have led the NFL in passing in four of seven seasons, it's natural that your name would appear near the top of passing yardage odds each season.
Hence, it's perfectly natural to see Drew Brees at 4/1 at online sportsbook Bovada, as they announced their passing yard props, receiving yard props and rushing yard props for 2013.
The New Orleans pivot has surpassed 5,000 yards the past two seasons. A trio of gunslingers are close behind him and those with NFL betting tips on profiting from props can tell you all of them are legitimate threats.
Aaron Rodgers has never led the league in passing, but he is a 6/1 bet this year. Matthew Stafford in Detroit is 13/2 and perennial MVP threat Peyton Manning is fourth at 7/1.
Tom Brady is 12/1 and he led the NFL in passing in 2005 and 2007.
On the rushing yardage props, the NFL odds focus on reigning MVP Adrian Peterson. He is 11/4, comfortably ahead of Seattle's Marshawn Lynch at 7/1.
Check out the passing and rushing yard props below.

For most teenagers, finding a summer job is almost a rite of passage into adulthood. It's a chance to learn responsibility and time management and practice how to get along with coworkers. It also helps earn money for college or fun. A group of specially selected teens, however, were able to take the concept of the summer job a step further as summer research scholars in Johns Hopkins University laboratories.
The Summer Academic Research Experience (SARE) program, an opportunity funded in part by Johns Hopkins Institute for NanoBioTechnology and the School of Medicine, trains students from "disadvantaged" homes throughout the state. Some students may have a parent in prison or struggling with addiction. Others may face extreme financial hardship or even have been homeless.
SARE scholars have a chance to overcome obstacles to academic success by working in academia under the guidance of a mentor. They improve their writing and mathematics skills through tutoring. And they learn how to keep good laboratory records, how to follow safety protocols, and how to make a professional presentation.
"This is way better than flipping burgers," exclaimed Stephanie Keyaka, as she prepared an image of a Western Blot performed on Drosophila eye genes. Keyaka, a tenth grader from The SEED School of Maryland, the state's only public boarding school. She studied rhodopsin in the eyes of flies in the lab of professor Craig Montell during the summer of 2012.
SARE, launched in 2009 through a collaboration between INBT and School of Medicine cell biology associate professor Doug Robinson, recruits students from the private nonprofit Boys Hope Girls Hope of Baltimore, from The SEED School, and now also from The Crossroads School, operated by the nonprofit Living Classrooms Foundation. While the partnership with Boys Hope Girls Hope has been in place from the beginning, working with The SEED School and The Crossroads School has expanded the potential pool of qualified and interested applicants. "Expanding the applicant pool makes the program more competitive, which is a worthwhile experience—to have to compete for something," Robinson said.
During their time at Hopkins, each SARE scholar focuses on a mini research project that advances the larger goals of the lab where they are placed. No prior laboratory work is expected, and the learning curve is steep. But with mentoring from graduate students and postdoctoral fellows, the scholars find their way. At the end of the summer, the scholars present their findings in a poster session for their peers, faculty and staff.
"At the beginning of the summer, I didn't know what the heck I was talking about, but now I get it!" laughed Christopher Miller, a tenth grader from The SEED School. Miller studied the motor protein myosin in the Robinson lab.
Miller's mentor, cell biology doctoral student Hoku West-Foyle, said working with students during the summer helps to re-energize the lab. "At first, it is a bit of extra work, but it gives you teaching experience, and when you are explaining your project to other people, it helps to reinforce why the larger research question matters. It fires you up to work harder," West-Foyle said.
Shaolin Holloman, an eleventh grader at Baltimore Polytechnic Institute and Girls Hope scholar, worked in the cell biology lab of professor Carolyn Machamer. Her project sought to understand why the SARS coronavirus localizes to the Golgi apparatus of the cell.
"I liked the work experience because we actually got to do hands-on experiments," said Hollomon, who hopes to become an orthopedic surgeon. "The biggest challenge for me was to keep up with my weekly essays, my summer reading and the work in the lab."
Robinson hopes the program can become self-sustaining and even scalable to accept more students. "We are at a juncture where we are seeking additional funding, so we are systematically assessing our impact," Robinson said. One would judge that the SARE program's impact is significant, since all five alumni who have graduated from high school, or who will do so this spring, have gone on to university, Robinson reported. Two students have declared biology as their major and the other three still in high school are interested in science, technology, mathematics or health-related disciplines. Five new scholars will join SARE this summer.
Khalek Kirkland, The SEED School headmaster said summer internships of this kind are important to help keep students motivated and on track academically. "We do believe in the 'summer brain drain,' in that students do lose something over the summer," Kirkland explained. "Doug and I are in talks about writing a grant together to expand the program not only to SEED School students, but to additional students as well."
Anyone with interest in supporting the efforts of the SARE program can contact Douglas Robinson via email a email@example.com.

Once you used an iron to wax your board, and you spread the wax evenly, ...... its worked excellent for me with the wax I use.. lasts long and is very quick.
Last thing..
So adding more wax won't do squat. It's all about the type of wax and the conditions you're riding. Leaving excess wax on the board actually slows the board down. Hence why it's crucial to remove as much wax as possible.
Originally Posted by Esmi99 View Post

Once you used an iron to wax your board, and you spread the wax evenly, it is a complete waste to wax it again if you haven't ridden the board. The base can only absorb a certain amount of wax. If it makes you feel better, then go ahead and do it, but it's not doing anything.
If the base of your board is un even, or in other words, there's more wax removed from one area than another, you need to continue scraping to remove all the wax you possibly can without digging into the base. You're scraper will not dig into the base unless you start taking the base out. I prefer a metal scraper hands down, but it's much easier to wreak havoc with a metal scraper, so take caution. If you're just starting off, use a plastic scraper until you get a technique down.
The 45 degree pulling scraping technique is perfectly fine, it's the best way to avoid causing problems, but it can be done pull or pushing, it can be done with both push and pull in rapid motion. Go from tip to tail or vice versa, they don't have to be continuous strokes when doing so. The purpose is to remove as much wax as possible with the scraper.
From here, I use a nylon brush to remove even more wax. The nylon brush will only remove the wax from the surface, that the scraper missed. It's often those un even spots the OP talked about. I flatten my brush on the base going over rough or un even spots.. it also helps to angle the brush a bit to dig a little deeper. You'll start noticing the nylon brush is polishing the base. This is what you want. Again, do this from tip to tail. If you don't have a nylon brush, that's fine, but you want to get as much wax off with the scraper, because it makes using a scotch bright pad even easier.
From here I take a scotch bright pad. This is for the very small specs of excess wax if any, but it also polishes it even more. I don't necessarily go tip to tail with the scotch bright pad, and technically you don't have to with the nylon brush either. Here I go over the entire base, but also keep an eye out for spots of excess wax. If I missed something heavy, I'll take the nylon brush out and get it. Otherwise, I continue polishing with the pad.
Once done, I take out the horsehair brush. From tip to tail, I cover the entire base of the board. Doesn't take long, you don't have to go crazy at this step, just go over the base a few times.
Then I usually take out the scotch bright pad and go from tip to tail on the base quickly. Leaving the base, shiny and slick. This is pretty much my method, you can shorten it quite a bit or go even crazier as I've done on occasion, but it's the gist of it.
All of the above can be done with just a plastic scraper and a pad, in which case the scraper is even more important, because it because a pain in the ass to polish the base otherwise, because the pad will be doing the job of the scraper in a very inefficient way.
It's late as hell here right now and I'm exhausted, so I'm not going to bother proofreading. I hope it all made sense. Please critique my method if you must, but its worked excellent for me with the wax I use.. lasts long and is very quick.
|ight aha thanks man everyone has been a big help stokedd for this season
wax it as much as you want it's designed for that. Unless you'll start using a screwdriver to scrape or leave your iron in one place till the base bubbles up, you are not ruining the base in any way. Those things can take a lot of punishment.
Btw make sure you let it cool for 30 minutes before you scrape it
|yeah ahah exactly what im worried about happening to me, I won't damage the board or anything if i give it another hot wax so this time i know i got it right?
|Maybe thats why it only lasts 10 runs?
|yeah i just wanna get a good first few runs on it and after the waxing i gave it, some areas looked way more polished then others so i might just rewax it

An accounts representative embarks on a frantic quest to reclaim his identity from the Orlando thief who stole it and destroyed his credit by embarking on a massive spending spree in this comedy starring Jason Bateman (Arrested Development, Horrible Bosses) and Melissa McCarthy (Bridesmaids). Sandy Bigelow Patterson (Bateman) has a problem. A Denver family man who's always been responsible with his personal finances, he is shocked to learn that his credit score is in shambles. But it gets worse -- if he can't clear his name in a week, the mix-up could very well cost him his job. Fortunately Sandy is in luck; after the unrepentant Florida fraudster (McCarthy) who stole his identity causes a stir in a club and misses her court date, Sandy is arrested and promptly released when detectives request a mug shot, and realize their mistake. When the police refuse to offer any help, Sandy realizes that his only choice is to catch the imposter himself and bring her back to Denver to face justice. Unfortunately, this wily thief isn't going down without a fight, and with a grizzled skip tracer (Robert Patrick) and a pair of vicious gangsters (Génesis Rodríguez and T.I.) determined to get the fake Sandy first, every step along the way will be a struggle. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
