2011 Public Interest Law Fellowship recipients announced
DETROIT (May 18, 2011) – Wayne State University Law School is pleased to announce the 2011 Public Interest Law Fellowship recipients. With the support of the $4,500 fellowships, 13 Wayne Law students will work for a variety of agencies and legal clinics in Michigan and beyond.
The Law School created the fellowships in 2009 to give students additional opportunities to gain practical experience before graduation, ease financial stresses and offer needed assistance to organizations providing legal services to underserved constituencies. Fellowship recipients will hold public interest jobs during summer 2011. A committee of Wayne Law faculty and alumni selected the recipients.
"Wayne Law is emerging as the leading public interest law school in the Midwest thanks to initiatives such as our Public Interest Law Fellowships, our clinics – including the first trans-border environmental law clinic in North America – pro bono programs, internship opportunities and, of course, the Damon J. Keith Center for Civil Rights, " said Wayne Law Dean Robert M. Ackerman. "The Public Interest Law Fellowships help us pursue our public service mission by providing yet another opportunity for our students to gain practical experience in public interest law and assist folks in need of legal help at a time of economic difficulty."
Ackerman continued, "On behalf of Wayne Law, I congratulate our 2011 Public Interest Law Fellowship recipients. We are thrilled to be able to offer these fellowships for a third year, and hope to be in a position to continue funding the program in future years as well."
The fellowship recipients and the organizations for which they will work include:
- Kimberly Adams, Washtenaw County Office of the Public Defender
- Manuel Barragan Arenas, Illinois State's Attorney's Juvenile Justice Bureau, Chicago
- Matthew Clark, Michigan Unemployment Insurance Project, and Wayne Law's Environmental Law Clinic
- Julianne Cole, Michigan Attorney General's Office, Civil Rights Division
- Zoila Del Castillo, WomensLaw.org, New York City
- Bradley Dembs, Bazelon Center for Mental Health Law, Washington, D.C.
- Stephanie Karisny, Natural Resources Defense Council, Chicago
- Michael Kiehne, Texas RioGrande Legal Aid
- Valentina Korkes, Office of the General Counsel, Detroit Public Schools
- Emily Patterson, Maurice and Jane Sugar Law Center for Economic and Social Justice, Detroit
- Natalia Vieira Santanna, Michigan Immigrant Rights Center, Kalamazoo
- Victoria Suber, Michigan Children's Law Center
- Victor Walbridge, Detroit Free Legal Aid Clinic
"I consider myself very privileged to spend the summer working on an area of law that is my passion — public interest immigration law," Santanna said. "In light of the enduring issues regarding the treatment of immigrants in Michigan, I feel inspired to have the opportunity to make a positive difference in the community through my work. I am grateful that Wayne Law cares for and supports students like me in projects that help the community."
"I appreciate being chosen to receive a Public Interest Law Fellowship because I believe that these fellowships provide both the financial and moral support that is needed to continue on the path of public service," Suber said. "I believe that children both need and deserve strong advocates in our society because they cannot advocate for themselves. I am eager to work for the Michigan Children's Law Center because I will have the opportunity to advocate for the protection and liberty of children who reside in one of the most impoverished communities in the country."
Added Dembs, "I am really excited at the opportunity to work for an organization that is highly influential in the field of disability rights. To have the chance to assist and learn from a group that shares the same passion and goals I have is the most I could have ever hoped for when looking for a summer internship. The fact that I will be helping people at the same time only sweetens the deal. These fellowships give students the chance to take great jobs without worrying about how they will cope financially. I look forward to representing Wayne Law in our nation's capital."

I've been lurking on the Bihn forums for about a week and I was hoping you could help me out with something. You once posted photos of an 11" MBA in a Co-Pilot, in a cache. My question is, which cache is it? The netbook size, or the one specifically for the Macbook Air? I literally just ordered the Co-Pilot, and wasn't sure if there was enough room for a cache, so I didn't order it...but your photos prove otherwise. Would greatly appreciate your help!
hi Maverick,
I saw in a random post that you have instructions on how to fold up the shop bag nice and tight. I can't find the instructions! COuld you point me in the right direction? THanks,
I was wondering if you got rid of your IPAD and Macbook and are just using the Macbook Air?
hey mav
I was wondering how you are finding the switch to the 11 air from the 15 macbook pro. i am thinking of going that direction.
hey Maverick
I added a post to customer photos section "my wife's medium cafe bag" the photos are showing up huge but they are 499x499 on my website url which the forum is pulling the photos from...not sure how to resize them within the forum..maybe you could fix?
would make for a better post...
Keith Snow

Women's Basketball Ready for Tilt Against Wright State
By Rachel Buck (@GBRachel)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) – The Green Bay women's basketball team is ready for its lone Horizon League tilt of the week as it matches up with Wright State on Saturday at the Kress Center at 1 p.m.
Fans can listen live to the game on Green Bay's new radio partner, WNFL 1440 AM. The live audio with Bruce VandenPlas on the call will also be available for free via GreenBayPhoenix.com or on the Green Bay Phoenix App on IOS and Android devices. The game will be available online for free through the Horizon League Network.
Saturday's contest marks the 54th all-time meeting between the two squads, with the Phoenix leading the series 50-3. Green Bay has won the last 23 matchups dating back to the 2003-04 season, and is a perfect 26-0 against the Raiders at home.
Standing at 9-7 overall and 2-2 in the Horizon League, Green Bay rebounded from two consecutive conference losses with a 90-72 win over Cleveland State Last Saturday. It tied the highest offensive output for the Phoenix this season, as the team shot 54.5 percent (30-55) from the field and 43.5 percent (10-23) from three while finishing with 22 assists on 30 field goals.
Sophomore Kaili Lukan (Barrie, Ontario) leads the team in scoring with 12.7 points per game. She has had three 20+ point performances in the last four Horizon League games and is averaging an impressive 19.5 points per game in conference action. Senior Breannah Ranger (Skokie, Ill.) has a team-best 7.1 rebounds per game, while junior Megan Lukan (Barrie, Ontario) leads in assists (4.4) and freshman Tesha Buck (Red Wing, Minn.) leads in steals (1.9).
Wright State enters the weekend second in the conference with a 4-1 mark while owning an overall record of 15-5. The Raiders most recently knocked off Milwaukee, 69-64, on Thursday evening. Down by six points early in the second half, a big 21-5 run for the Raiders proved to be the difference as the team picked up its second-consecutive win. Wright State is currently tops in the conference averaging 80.9 points per game, but is just fifth in scoring defense as its opponents average 73.8 points per game. Kim Demmings currently leads the conference averaging 21.0 points per game, while teammate Ivory James is seventh with an average of 17.1 points per game.
1. Sister, Sister: The play of the Lukan sisters, Kaili and Megan, has been key to the Phoenix early in the Horizon League season. The duo has combined for 44.8 percent (124-277) of Green Bay's offensive production thus far, shooting 50.6 percent (45-89) from the field and 80.6 percent (29-36) from the free throw line. They have also dished out a combined 31 assists (31-59) and caused 13 steals (13-28) for the team.
2. Cool Hand Lukan: Sophomore Kaili Lukan has been making the most of her time on the court this season. Leading the team in scoring for the majority of the year, she has been the top Phoenix scorer in seven contests while posting double-digit efforts in 11 games, including five of the last six. Against Cleveland State last Saturday she finished with 23 points for her third 20+ point performance in four Horizon League games, and currently leads the team averaging 19.5 points in the four conference contests. The last Phoenix player to have three or more 20+ point performances during the Horizon League regular season was Julie Wojta who had seven in 2011-12.
3. Increased Productivity: Junior Megan Lukan has found her stride with the turn of the calendar to the conference season. Averaging 11.5 points and a team-best 8.3 rebounds in four Horizon League games, Lukan is improving on her totals of 9.7 points and 3.6 rebounds in 12 non-conference contests. Posting just six double-figure scoring games last season, Lukan has now accomplished that feat in 11 of Green Bay's 16 games this season, including 10 or more points in eight of her last 10 games.
4. Turnover Totals: Ball security will be at a premium on Saturday as the Raiders and Phoenix, ranked number one and two in turnover margin among Horizon League teams, will meet at the Kress. Wright State currently leads the nation with a +10.2 turnover margin (22.7/12.5), the only team in the nation with a double-digit turnover ratio. The Raiders also lead the conference causing 10.3 steals per game with Tay'ler Mingo and Kim Demmings standing second and third in the conference with 2.2 and 2.1 steals per game, respectively. Meanwhile the Phoenix is second in the conference and 15th nationally with a +5.3 turnover ratio (19.4/14.4).
5. Home (Not So) Sweet Home: With six losses on the schedule this season, Green Bay is in unfamiliar territory with four of those coming at the Kress Center. Before this year the Phoenix had an overall record of 95-6 at the Kress Center (six seasons) and had never lost more than two games on its home court in a single season. It has been nearly two decades since the Phoenix lost more than four games at home in a year, last occurring during the 1992-93 campaign when it was 10-6.

Fates unfurl in the gripping conclusion to the New York Times best-selling Hush, Hush saga.
Nora is more certain than ever that she is in love with Patch. Fallen Angel or no, he is the one for her. Her heritage and destiny may mean that they will always be enemies, but there is no turning her back on him. And yet their biggest challenge lies ahead. Can their love survive a seemingly insurmountable divide? The lines are drawn, but it's unclear which sides have been taken. And in the end, will there be enough trust left to rebuild what has been broken?
©2012 Becca Fitzpatrick (P)2012 Simon & Schuster, Inc.
"I should have just bought the novel"
I am a big fan of this series and could not wait for the final book. While the story nicely wraps up the journey that Patch and Nora have traveled throughout the series, I was somewhat disappointed by the 2nd half of this book. I think that performance by the narrator may be to blame for that though.
Gates of Paradise by Melissa De La Cruz also is the final book in a series that follows 2 characters that overcome an sacrifice a lot for love.
I will not purchase any other books narrated by Carlin Greer! She seems more concerned about proper pronunciation of the words than about what emotion is required to compel listeners to follow along. There are parts in the story where she makes Nora sound happy when facing situations that fans of this series will know are heartbreaking.
I am an avid reader. I've read over 100 books in the last year and have really enjoyed almost all of the 20+ audio books that I have purchased . With that said, it took me almost 3 months to listen to this entire audio book because every time I would play it, I found myself wishing I would have just gotten the ebook instead of wasting the money on the audio version !
"great book"
there are very few books I've read in which i wouldn't change one thing or another. this is definitely one of them. Great story amazing performance top notch
I have 3 kids that occupy all the TV's in the house...enough said...addicted to audiobook ....shhhh don't tell my husband ;-)
"Pleasantly surpised"
This was a cute paranormal series that was more keen on mystery more so then romance. It was very PG on the romance but the mystery factor kept everything interesting. This paranormal series are about battling races of Angels on earth. Fallen Angels from heaven are curse not to feel physical sensation on Earth, the only way Fallen Angels can have human sensation is to posses a race of fallen angel / human hybrid called the Nephilim. The Nephilim posses human sensation along with immortality and fallen angel strength. Fallen Angels seek out Nephilim when they turn 16 years old to make them swear an oath of fealty to the Angel so that 2 weeks out of the year the fallen angel can posses the Nephilim like a parasite and gain human sensation. Nora Grey didn't have much invested in the war until she procured a fallen angel boyfriend Patch and was made a pure blood Nephilim by her biological father that was the leader of the Nephilim army that Nora inherited upon his death. What is Nora to do?
very fun listening and credit worthy
"love this book!"
love love love this book storyline from all four book are incredible! hope for more!
"Better than twilight!"
I think Caitlin did an amazing job throughout and this series is so much better that twilight! definately my favorite book series of all time! I wish I was Nora.
"loved it!!"
I loved this book. it was an excellent ending to a great series!! wish there was more!
The story wasn't good.
Less whining voice
The repetition in Nora's thought sequences was annoying. Why say something 20 times when just a couple of times will accentuate the idea?
"Don't bother"
This is the most disappointing one yet! I continued to purchase the series, hoping it would get better – but knowing in my heart it wouldn't! If you have already purchased this, go ahead and return it! Complete and utter crap!!

Council of Europe Anti-Racism Commission to prepare report on Slovenia
Strasbourg, 7 May 2013 - A delegation of the European Commission against Racism and Intolerance (ECRI) visited Slovenia from 22 to 26 April 2013 as the first step in the preparation of a monitoring report. During its visit, ECRI´s delegation gathered information on the implementation of the recommendations it made to the authorities in its 2007 report and discussed new issues that have emerged since.
The delegation held meetings in Ljubljana and Kočevje with representatives of all relevant ministries and other competent authorities, independent experts, minority groups and NGOs.
Following this visit, ECRI will adopt a report to be published in 2014 in which it will make a fresh set of recommendations on measures to be taken by the authorities to address racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia, antisemitism and intolerance in the country. Among these, three will be revisited in two years' time as part of an interim follow-up procedure.
In its 2007 report, ECRI highlighted the following concerns: the failure to resolve the situation of persons unlawfully erased from the register of permanent residents in February 1992; the absence of a strategy to address all areas where Roma experience disadvantage and discrimination; and negative attitudes towards members of Muslim communities, notably in connection with the construction of a mosque in Ljubljana.
ECRI is a human rights body of the Council of Europe, composed of independent experts, which monitors problems of racism, discrimination on grounds of ethnic origin, citizenship, colour, religion and language (racial discrimination), as well as xenophobia, antisemitism and intolerance, prepares reports and issues recommendations to member States.

Boba Fett costumers who had hi-res images of themselves in costume. He was tired of working up paintings based off the same photo references that everyone else has used for years. He wanted different poses, etc... Since I had done two photo shoots in my fett costume (this particular photo taken by none other than our very own Art Andrews) I sent them in. Steve loved them and immediately asked me if he could use my pictures whenever he needed Boba to be in a project of his. I agreed and there you have it!
That is so cool! Well, when you want the best... Come to TDH!
Saw these yesterday at T.R.US.. they look quite cute. and the dent looks quite accurate too. lol
Cool; I think I read that they should appear stateside sometime early August; anyone seen any in the US yet?
MJF, the EE3 is supposed to be coming out also... did you happen to see it at TRUS?
Nah I didn't mate, altho I was too busy playing.. er I mean studying the Voice changer lid.

I you ever read the Keeper of the Bees you know that the beekeeper in the story always crushed mint or other flowers on his hands before going into the hives. I've tried it a few times when the bees were extra testy--seems to work.

Annual Veterans Day parade steps out Sunday
By MARK HAYWARD
New Hampshire Union Leader | November 09. 2012 12:15AM
The grand marshal of the Manchester Veterans Day parade will be Francis B. "Sharkey" Madden (Courtesy)
The parade is scheduled to step off the corner of Elm and Webster streets at 10:30 a.m. Sunday, and take about an hour to march down the city's main street. Police plan to close off the length of Elm Street starting about 10:15 a.m.
The parade is expected to stop at City Hall at 11 a.m. where the Armistice of 1918 will be noted and Taps will be played.
Speeches will follow at Veterans Memorial Park, where Gary P. Reid, commander of Veterans of Foreign Wars post 8214, will address the crowd.
"If people love their country, they'll love this parade - it's a patriotic thing," said Gene Mackie, spokesman for the Manchester Veterans Council, which puts on the parade.
He said about 200 people are scheduled to participate, not including the three high school bands. Participants include American Legion and VFW posts in the city, Liberty House, Gold Star Mothers, Blue Star Mothers, the West High Navy Junior ROTC program participants, Veterans for Peace, scouting organizations, the American Red Cross, WZID and Citizens for Manchester Schools.
The grand marshal of the parade will be Francis B. "Sharkey" Madden, a Manchester native who enlisted in the Army and was deployed to Guam in the Pacific theater, during World War II. He came home and worked at the Manchester Highway Department for 45 years. He was a member of the American Legion Sweeney Post honor guard and firing squad for 30 years.
"We usually get a good turnout, regardless of the day," said Mackie. The weather forecast calls for sunny skies and temepratues in the mid-50s.
At the ceremony, the Veterans Council will give out the Tony Karam Award, which recognizes an individual or organization that fosters and contributes to veteran-related causes.
The speaker, Reid, enlisted as a Marine when he was 17. He was twice deployed to Vietnam, where he received the Purple Heart afer being wounded by a Viet Cong grenade. He has been the commander of VFW Post 8214 since 2010 and is a member of the American Legion Jutras Post and a life member of the Disabled American Veterans.
Other activities will take place aross the state on Veterans Day:
. A ceremony will take place 11 a.m. Sunday at the New Hampshire State Veterans Cemetery in Boscawen.

Boundary-spanning boards: Connecting to roles
This weekend, it occurred to me that community engagement really is represented in the four board roles that I've informally added to the usual list of 10 responsibilities. The ideas generated as I pondered the connections feel a little rough, but worthy of batting around with readers of this blog. May I share those ideas with you and request your feedback?
Visionary: As definers of the organization's vision and mission, the board absolutely has a responsibility for sharing that brighter future with your stakeholders. Board members are in a perfect position to articulate that vision of the future and how their organization, specifically, is working toward reaching it.
Two things need to happen, though. First, board members must have a clear understanding of your vision and mission - and be able to share them effectively with others. That may take practice. Second, they need to own the vision and mission. Members need to understand that advancing them, and stewarding resources wisely, is their ultimate responsibility as a board. Ownership also involves feeling like it belongs to them. Has the board had regular opportunities to discuss and shape that future? Your purpose? Are they absolutely committed to, preferably passionate about, them? If you and answer yes to all of these, half of the boundary-spanning battle may be over.
Ambassador: Whether or not they recognize or embrace the role, board members are your lead community links to their peer groups and other parts of the community. Members come to the boardroom table with their existing spheres of influence - their friendships, their work relationships, their memberships in communities of faith and other organizations, etc. They extend the organization's reach to new parts of the community, where perhaps none otherwise exist, and add credibility to existing connections, because of who they are as individuals and the voluntary nature of their service.
Board members have a different kind of credibility than the executive director and other staff, with different groups of people. In some cases, that credibility is greater. At minimum, it is different.
Steward: Board members accept an awesome responsibility as stewards of organizational resources. When members embrace that, and when they communicate how they are taking good care of those resources on behalf of the community, they carry great power. This is particularly true when board members represent the organization before public officials and funding sources (e.g., grantors). That board member presence at a city council meeting, or at a United Way site visit, carries great power.
Leader: When I came to this fourth responsibility, the points I had felt a bit redundant within the context of what I have shared about the three previous roles. But maybe there is a difference. Here's what I am thinking at the moment about the boundary-spanning leadership role of the board.
Board members are leaders of your organization, with complementary responsibility for the overall health and future shared with an executive director (unless yours is an all-volunteer organization, in which case the board holds complete leadership responsibility). If you have recruited well, individual members are community leaders, with or without an official title, who bring with them the power and connections that they already have within their existing networks. Whether or not they are acting on your behalf in those settings, when people know that they serve on your board, their leadership impact carries with it. When they speak on your behalf in those settings, their leadership potential magnifies. Let's be honest: it's one (perfectly appropriate) reason you recruited them to your board in the first place.
As I said at the beginning of this post, this is very much a "thinking out loud" moment for me. (You're seeing a bit of how my mind works when it's in creative mode!) I'm offering up this "draft" with the invitation to help me flesh my thoughts out further.

I like your thoughts about this. You are articulate and intentional w/o "threatening" board members. I am looking for strategies to present this info to a Board and this has a great feel to it. Thanks.

- Debra Beck, EdD said...
I appreciate the feedback, Denise. Thanks!
The spark that led to my desire to add these four roles to the usual list of 10 was the desire to link the board job description, explicitly, to the places where boards can make the biggest difference - and to what motivated them to serve in the first place.
So much time and energy is spent in board meetings "holding them accountable," drawing their focus to all the things that can go wrong (a legitimate role, true, but not exactly motivating). If you are able to connect this critical outreach work to what called them to serve in the first place, no threats will be necessary. :)

First off, I love the phrase boundary-spanning. Under visionary, I would add the need for the board to understand and feel connected to the organization's business model. When board and staff are even a little out of synch about what this is, it can sidetrack the organization without anyone even knowing it.
This may be implied under Ambassador, but I think boards have a role as storytellers/advocates. Storytelling solidifies their engagement when they go public with their involvement with the organization.
All of your roles are great additions to the typical 10.
- June 15, 2011 at 8:53 AM
- Nancy Iannone said...
I really like how addition of the roles clarifies what "being" a board member is, not just which tasks and responsibilities belong to the position.
- June 15, 2011 at 9:34 AM
- Debra Beck, EdD said...
Carlo, I appreciate that you've highlighted the storyteller/advocate roles. They're implied; but in this situation, articulating as explicitly as possible, in as many identifiable (and inspiring) ways as possible, feels like a good thing.
Also appreciate your feedback re understanding and connecting to the business model. Great point!
- June 15, 2011 at 12:26 PM
- Debra Beck, EdD said...
I'm grateful you recognized and raised the theme of "being," Nancy. As you know, I'm working on a chapter for a new book on governance practices. My focus for that chapter is sociocultural learning in boards - learning to be, in addition to learning about.
The more I think about it, the more strongly I see that as being a missing link for many boards. The idea is all over this blog, but communicating that more directly is something that would be helpful for boards (and for me, as a writer and consultant).
- June 15, 2011 at 12:30 PM
- Alexandra Lally Peters said...
I love this! It's respectful of the board's role, and open to interpretation and use by different types of boards, small and large, young and old.
The one thing I would emphasize is that boards don't just "own" the vision and mission - they must be constantly revisiting it. Not necessarily to change their stance, but to refresh and clarify their own understanding. And there are so many ways to look at mission in particular, and to question how it is working and how it is being affected by change sin the world, that a discussion about it should never be stale for the board.
- June 15, 2011 at 10:44 PM
- Debra Beck, EdD said...
I so agree with your point about providing regular opportunities to talk about and reaffirm the board's commitment to the vision and mission, Alexandra. Frankly, I think it should drive every conversation they have. But you and I agree that helping the board truly embrace and claim the vision and mission as theirs helps them govern more effectively (and makes the job more fulfilling).

Fox Fact Sheet
Valued as one of the classic representatives from the wild canid family, foxes are found throughout the state in both rural and urban landscapes. In Georgia, there are two species of fox - the gray fox (Urocyon cinereoargenteus) and the red fox (Vulpes vulpes).
Gray Fox
Grizzled gray in color with patches of reddish fur on the neck, flanks, legs and underside of the tail, gray foxes weigh between 8-12 pounds, are 34-40 inches in total length. A black stripe runs along their back down to the tail tip. Sexual maturity occurs at approximately one year of age and the mating season runs from January through April. Following a 53-day gestation period, females give birth to 2-7 pups. Considered monogamous, both male and female gray foxes work together to raise pups until the pups become independent after about 3 months of age.
Red Fox
A furry deep reddish brown to yellowish red animal with a characteristic bushy red tail tipped with white, the red fox weighs between 8-14 pounds, and is 36-45 inches in total length. Sexual maturity occurs at approximately one year of age and the mating season runs from January through February. Following a 53-day gestation period, females give birth to 4-5 pups. Considered monogamous, both male and female work together to raise pups until the pups disperse at about 6 months of age.
Gray Fox
Also referred to as a forest fox, the gray fox is native to the eastern forests of both Georgia and the United States. The association of the gray fox with forests may in part be based on the gray foxes ability to elude predators such as predatory birds, coyotes, and bobcats by climbing trees-a feature unique among foxes. Even though gray foxes are associated primarily with forested areas, they are also found along woodland edges and in and around urban/suburban areas. Gray foxes are quite territorial spending most of their life in a one-square mile home range. Gray foxes are considered carnivores because a large portion of their diet includes rabbits, rats, mice, squirrels, birds, and insects, however they also will eat carrion and vegetation, including all types of fruits, nuts and berries.
Red Fox
Introduced into America by European settlers and now found throughout Georgia and most of the United States, the red fox is characterized as an old field or edge-species since it is commonly found in areas of mixed pine-hardwood forests interspersed with fields, cropland and/or grasslands. Red foxes are quite common in urban and suburban areas throughout Georgia because of the abundance of food in these areas and their adaptability. Oftentimes home range and territories overlap and vary in size depending on red fox population densities and food abundance. Red foxes are considered carnivores because a large portion of their diet includes rabbits, rats, mice, squirrels, birds and insects, however they also will eat carrion and vegetation including all types of fruits, nuts and berries. When preyed upon by coyotes, bobcats, and/or predatory birds, red foxes utilize their adaptation of speed and endurance to elude predators. This adaptation is what made this species so popular for fox and hound hunting.
Because of the adaptability of both gray and red foxes to urban and suburban environments, as well as the abundant food and shelter associated with these areas, foxes are quite common in cities, towns, subdivisions, and even near rural home sites as well as in their natural habitat. Although foxes are primarily nocturnal hunters, it is not uncommon to see a fox during the day. If you see a fox during the day in either the woods or in your yard, the best advice is to simply leave it alone. You may want to remove any bird feeders that may be attracting mice and birds to your yard, which in turn attracts foxes. Other prey items for foxes include domestic fowl like chickens, guineas, and ducks. To alleviate domestic depredation issues, building exclusionary pens is the best solution. Both red and gray foxes can carry diseases and parasites such as rabies, distemper, roundworms, fleas and mange mites.
Red and gray foxes are considered both game species and furbearers. Hunting and trapping seasons are from approximately December through February. Foxes are typically harvested for their fur value that is used in the coat and trim markets.

lookin' good! heres my 2 cents worth of constructive criticism your cape should be on the side where your chest lights are on (left) and don't forget to square off your thigh pockets with Styrofoam or something similar also your armor seems a little small I'm kinda a big guy too I made my wookie braids a little bigger than normal and it seemed to help alot. I wonder if you got a little bigger chest plates if it would fill out better too. just a thought. looks like you on your way to a pretty good outfit though!!
Im sure you know.. missing girth JP knees.... you paint applications are nice.! great job... i would weather your flight suit and boots a tad more. (its really hard to tell from the pics) I agree on the armor but its kinda late to go back... If you do change armor look into FP stuff, looks like your rocking MLC fiberglass (thats what i need!) hahaha
excellent job..
yeah i got MLC armor i have a trash can armor thats bigger i want to be close to movie acurate so thanks for the advice.
I think in the case of those of us that arent movie accurate body type, we have to work around the movie accurate armor size and such. because it stands out when we dont
I have to tie my boobs down a lot and had to cut some things down because I am short, etc.
as mentioned elsewhere I think the collar armor stands out as small the most to me...

Okay TDH, so I got this voice amplifier based on TK409's recomendation around Christmas time of last year when I was first getting started on my Fett.
Since that time I've finally finished my scratchbuilt flightsuit and I was always intending to slip the mic speaker into the front thigh pouch. Anyway, I got it to fit and it functions just fine but the speaker shape isn't exactly formed to the rectangular styled pocket. What do you guys think? Is it so apparent that I need to make changes or would it be ok to leave it?
I thought about trimming it down maybe or just making my own housing but I have no experience with electronics and I'd probably just break it. I took it apart for a look-see and there's really not much unused plastic to shed anyway. The design takes up most all of the housing.
Anyway, I've spent about forty bucks on this thing and I'm not really considering getting another and the flighsuit is done and sewn on very securely so I don't want to alter my pocket . It also has a waist strap for it's intended method of wear and I've seen harneses for TK's under the chest plate that worked out nice but there's not really any room on the Fett to hide such a bulky speaker. Sigh, what to do?


text: Nets 99- Pistons 96 Seventh loss in a row for the Pistons, and I think they become the first team to get swept in the back2back2back series in this condensed season. However good effort tonight as they hung in there to the end with probably their best scoring third qtr of the season. If not for a poor second qtr, they would have probably won this game and definitely topped 100 pts...which according to the final score would have been good enough to win. Tay was the catalyst matching Monroe with 21 pts, but it was he who probably ran out of gas down the stretch and should have not have been handling the rock in the last 2 mns...,I would have kept the ball in Walker D jr's hands, and let him create, but unfortunately it appears that LFrank trusted his isotaying veteran more and Greg Kelser said in the end, Tay held on to it too long. The PF position still remains an issue with the Pistons as tonight they started Max and it was just a tad better than Ben as he registered 4 pts and one board in 22 minutes. Oh by the way, Big Ben was inserted midway through the fourth and gave up two easy baskets and did not register any stats other than a -4. Like wise Daye scored no points or boards in his 11 minutes of play. Good play from our stars of the future, Monroe, Knight and JJ. Russell deserves more PT. New Jersey had only 8 players available and four of them were named Williams and they combined for 55 points and 30 rebounds and one of them (Deron) had all 9 of their assists. Oh yeah Kris I still love Kim K, Humphries had 18 pts, 8 boards and 5 assists. That my friends is who the Pistons should have signed as their starting power forward when he was still crying over Kim. Did anyone else notice Jerry the Piston security guy reaching up and giving a Nets fan a high five when the team ran off to the locker room through the tunnel at the half?

Is there anyone in London with more than 5 years experience as an ESOL or TEFL Tutor who is willing to mentor me please?
I have had some teaching experience over 6 years ago as a Key-skills tutor, i'm now in the middle of a CELTA - which is challenging but also enjoyable.
My request is really to find someone who can link via email who can assist with some advice about being a mature tutor as i am in my 40's and hoping to travel to Europe such as Belgium, France or similar places to work. If you have experience of working abroad and can help me even just to make some informed decisions i would really appreciate your help.

|General Technical Chat This section is for technical discussions relating to general maintenance, electrical issues, engine trouble, and recalls.
|Topic Review (Newest First)
Well my cold start issues are back, and it is once again very cold in Milwaukee (-3F). My car would not start at all last night, would die as soon as my foot left the gas.
I ended up taking it to the shop. They are telling me that is likely the MAF sensor, since the sensor was reading the temperature as -60 which is obviously not right. As soon as they warmed it with their hands the temp jumped to 70F on the computer. So it appears to be malfunctioning.
They want about $300 to replace it with a new sensor.
Is it worth replacing the sensor? Does anyone else agree that this sounds like a probable cause to my issues?
|no and no
So, I changed the oil in my car the cold start issue appears to have gone away.
I had Royal Purple 5W-30 and a Royal Purple extended filter installed, with about 8K miles on it (a little over due, I know..)
Could dirty oil really be the cause of my cold start issues? Is it worth sending my oil in for analysis?
|Get Focused
|Really good info. Just changed plugs, found some oil, will change gasket. Thanks.
|On anything with spark plug tunnels I ALWAYS look inside before removing plugs. If enough oil or water in there, when it runs in after you yank the plug, there could be enough fluid in cylinder to hydrolock and break or bend a rod. Any dirt in tunnel also swept in by the oil. I generally blow out the tunnels before yanking plug too, you'd be amazed what gets in there even with a normally covered top.
Yeah, your problem is going to be the valve cover gasket. Oil leaking in around the spark plugs from the bad gasket will seep up the coil boot and cause the spark to short out. I highly suggest that you get a new valve cover gasket before you end up KOing a coil. The coils are $90 each.
You might want to get some coil boots. Those cost $5-8 each, and are easy to replace. Mine went out about 80k miles.
The valve cover gasket is not hard to change. Don't be intimidated by not having an in-lb torque wrench. The valve cover has metal collars in the screw holes so the only way you will over tighten it is to be trying to break something. The most important thing about tightening down a new valve cover gasket is to be sure that you start tightening down from the center in an X shaped pattern to the outside edges. Never start at the outside working to the inside.
These gaskets are super easy to replace- it's a molded gasket that fits into a slot. Use a screwdriver to lightly pry up the old gasket, and pull it out, then press in the new gasket. That's all you have to do.
Are you sure your valve cover gasket isn't bad? Maybe when you removed the plugs the oil ran into the cylinders. If there was that much oil like you're saying you would be blowing blue smoke out of the exhaust.
I would do a compression test and pull the valve cover to inspect the valve cover gasket.
I do believe there is a TSB on the cold start issue. I think the fix was an update to the stock tune on the ECU.
Moved to General Technical Chat. Duratec Performance is for chat about any Duratec 23, 23E, and 20 engine performance, tuning and exhaust related upgrades.
Thanks for posting.
Oil in Cylinders, Failing to cold start
Hi all,
I have a 2007 Ford Focus SE 2.0L with 79K miles.
I have been having some issues that started about two weeks ago. My engine would fail to cold start, unless you tried multiple times and gave it gas when turning over.
I do live in Milwaukee, WI so the weather has been below freezing.
Once that car was started you could turn it on/off again and again without problems, runs fine on the road, does not blow smoke, and I have not noticed any significant power loss. The problems would start again if you let it sit for several hours.
To troubleshoot this issue I've:
- Replaced The Battery
- Ran seafoam through the fuel system
- Cleaned out the throttle body
- Changed all 4 spark plugs
When I took out the two middle spark plugs I was horrified. Both were covered in un-burnt oil.. and when looking down into the middle two cylinders i could see oil pooled. The outside two cylinders were fine.
My cold start issues remain.
What could be causing the cold start issues? How can I diagnose the oil issue? How do I know if the middle cylinders are even running? What are my long term risks if I do not fix the oil issue?
Thanks for any advice or insight.

Hi Lucy
I give private lessons to one student. Recently I have been teaching him articles, when to use a/an/the. He told me the other day that he understands the rules and everything but that he is still making mistakes in his daily conversations. He wants to know what he needs to do: more reading, more practice? I 'm meeting him again tonight. I'm thinking about suggesting that he just needs to practice it in daily life but know that as no one ever corrects him (why would they when they understand him) that it's difficult to practice.
Thanks in advance

Nicole Casarez, professor of communication, has been making headlines. Anthony Graves, a former death row inmate, whom she represented and was exonerated, recently created a scholarship in her name as thanks for saving his life.
"The communication department is so very proud of Nicole and her many awards and accolades," said Dr. Robin Williamson, chair of the communication department. "We are extremely proud of her work in social justice. She is our ethical guiding light in her life and her work."
Casarez, who has been a UST faculty member since 1987, has been a social justice advocate on the University of St. Thomas campus. She engaged students in a service-learning social justice project when they became part of the Texas Innocence Project research team in conjunction with the University of Houston Law Center.
It was through their work with the Innocence Project that Casarez and her students were able find evidence that would eventually lead to the exoneration and release of Graves.
Graves was awarded $1.4 million by the Texas Legislature for wrongful incarceration and wanted to repay Casarez, but knowing she would not accept money consulted her husband and came up with the plan to create the scholarship.
The Nicole B. Casarez Endowed Scholarship in Law will benefit a deserving law student at Casarez's alma mater, University of Texas at Austin.
Since the announcement of the scholarship, Casarez has been engulfed in a whirlwind of media — interviews with local stations, magazines and an appearance on the Katie Couric show, which will air on Nov. 7.
Still, she defers praise saying she was only interested in finding the truth.
--- The communication department will host a viewing party from 3:00 to 4:00 p.m. in the Old Bookstore in the Crooker Center.

text: I read one documentary where plants turn the nectar on and off so as to have the bees flying from flower to flower instead of staying at one flower and filling up. That helps the plant get pollen from another plant. The author talked about one of the plants he was studying adding nectar and then turning it off for 15 minute intervals over a couple of days. I'm sure all plants have there own schedules.Jim

New York state was among the first to initiate a testing program for high school students in order to determine if they had learned required material. The infamous "Regents Exam" is known to every person who attended high school in New York state and who can forget the June dread about the upcoming exam? Marc Epstein, writing in the New York Daily News, derides the supposed difficulty of an exam in which a student need only score 36 out of 65 possible points in order to pass. In the old days, when I was a high school student, anything below 60% was a failing grade.
Epstein offers an example to highlight the supposed difficulty of the exam. Students are shown a photo of the situation in the famous Little Rock High School desegregation event. A caption reads: "on September 25, 1957, federal troops escort the Little Rock nine to their classes at Central High School." The student is asked the following rather difficult question: "Based on the photograph, what was the job of the United States Army troops in Little Rock, Arkansas?"
The more important issue is whether such tests go any further than identifying short term memory on the part of students. Do tests require students to demonstrate their ability to engage in critical thinking concerning issues in American history?

Fantasy Baseball Morning Update: Closer news from A's, M's
Did you know that six-man no-hitter participant Kevin Millwood was our streaming starter pick on Friday? Not too shabby, eh?
Milwaukee's Michael Fiers wasn't so good for us on Saturday, but A.J. Burnett produced another solid performance on Sunday. With the record at 41-27 for the season, today's pick is Edwin Jackson (owned in 29.9 percent of FOXSports.com leagues) at Toronto, while Tuesday's selection is Baltimore's Wei-Yin Chen (11.8 percent owned) against the Pirates.
On to the news:
- A's manager Bob Melvin announced over the weekend that he'll use a closer-by-committee approach for the time being, with Grant Balfour, Ryan Cook and Brian Fuentes in the mix. Cook (1.8 percent owned) is the pick here for the most saves, but Balfour (28.4 percent owned) shouldn't be written off. Also, if anyone wants to places a futures bet on fireballing lefty Sean Doolittle (0.0 percent owned), I'll match it. Doolittle whiffed five of the six Diamondbacks he faced on Sunday, and now has nine strikeouts in four innings since his recent promotion.
- Not long after Mariners' manager Eric Wedge pretty much forecasted an imminent return to the closer's role for Brandon League, League got knocked around by the Dodgers. Still, it sounds like the M's minds are made up about League, even if they only let him close again in order to build up his July trade value. I think we'll see some more saves from Tom Wilhelmsen later this season.
- Giants 3B Pablo Sandoval was activated over the weekend, but manager Bruce Bochy still thinks he's too fat, and Sandoval seems to agree. Fat guys can hit, right?
- Yankees OF Brett Gardner (elbow) had a setback in his rehab, and the team doesn't have any idea when he'll return. Teammate David Robertson made an uneventful rehab appearance on Sunday, and could be back by the weekend.
- D-backs' pitching prospect Trevor Bauer had a terrific Triple-A outing on Friday. His time has to be almost here, but don't ask me exactly when.
- Giants OF Melky Cabrera (hamstring) missed three games over the weekend, but they're hoping he can return Tuesday against the Astros.
- Brian Roberts' long-awaited return to the Orioles' lineup is expected to come on Tuesday. This sounds exciting, until you remember that Roberts hasn't been productive since sometime in early 2010. Manage your expectations for Roberts, and know that Robert Andino is about to lose playing time.
- The two major interleague DH situations that need to be watched this week are with the White Sox and Red Sox, who are both in National League parks through the weekend. The White Sox say they'll play Adam Dunn in left field and sit Dayan Viciedo against the Cardinals (at least), so Viciedo's owners might want to sit him this week. I haven't seen details from the Red Sox, but for some games, I'm guessing they'll have David Ortiz at first base, Kevin Youkilis at third and Will Middlebrooks on the bench.
- Tigers SP Doug Fister won't be ready to come off the DL on Wednesday, but he shouldn't be too far away. Teammate Drew Smyly left Sunday's start with a blister, and his status is TBD. At least the Tigers got Austin Jackson back over the weekend.
- Felipe Paulino's groin-related DL stint doesn't project to be a long one. In other Royals' news, OF Lorenzo Cain's recovery from a hip flexor injury is taking forever.
- Rangers SP Alexi Ogando made his first start of 2012 in place of Derek Holland last night, hurt his groin while running the bases, and appears headed for the DL. Have I mentioned how much I like watching pitchers hit?
- Edwin Encarnacion played the outfield on Sunday for the Blue Jays, but since they're back home this week, don't expect it to happen again.
- Has Ubaldo Jimenez figured something out? Yesterday's start was his second strong one in a row, with 11 strikeouts against only one walk in 13 2/3 innings over that span. I'm not sold yet, but I'm intrigued.
- Keep an eye on Padres OF Cameron Maybin, who had his bell rung in a collision with an outfield wall on Sunday. They think he'll play Tuesday, but it's not a certainty yet.
- How unbelievably awesome is Mike Trout? Halos Heaven provides some details. I traded a low-priced Trout (for David Price) in my AL keeper league last night, and later cried myself to sleep.
- The Dodgers expect to get 3B Juan Uribe back from the DL tonight or tomorrow.
- The Marlins have brought 1B Gaby Sanchez back from Triple A. In the preseason, we had Sanchez ranked somewhere between 20th and 25th among first basemen, and that sounds about right now.
- Rockies SS Troy Tulowitzki hopes to come off the DL on Friday, but the team's trainers might not be on the same page. Stay tuned.
- It sounds like 3B Scott Rolen (shoulder) and OF Drew Stubbs (oblique) are getting close to playing again for the Reds. They're not really going to bench Todd Frazier to accommodate Rolen, are they?
- Cubs C Geovany Soto (knee) might be ready to come off the DL this weekend.
- 3B Chipper Jones returned to the Braves' lineup on Sunday. Chipper isn't bad when he can stay on the field.
See you back here tomorrow morning.

We met with 30 Sourcing & Vendor Management Professionals during an action session at Forrester's Sourcing & Vendor Management Forum in Chicago to discuss how to improve governance for large implementation projects. Clients were looking for help across the sourcing life cycle – from determining who manages the RFP process, to determining scope with internal stakeholders, to driving governance after the contract is signed.
What tactics are Sourcing & Vendor Management Professionals using to tackle these challenges?
1. Renegotiate rates with current players. Forrester's recent survey found that 68% of organizations are renegotiating with their existing suppliers. One attendee said, "This has always been a priority, now we are bringing more efficiency and innovation to the process."
2. Drive innovation from vendors. Everyone wants innovation from their suppliers but few receive it. Attendees shared tips for how they overcome major hurdles to achieving this in their supplier relationships:
a. Define what you mean by innovation. Many struggle to get innovation from their providers because they haven't defined what that means — are you looking for idea-sharing or process improvements? Determine which type of innovation you need and communicate that to your vendor.
b. Identify metrics. "It's not just how you measure innovation; it's how you measure successful innovation." Clients shared a variety of metrics such as:
i. Requiring the vendor to submit continuous improvement ideas they agree are impactful to your organization
ii. Number of ideas submitted for approval
iii. Number approved
iv. ROI of implemented idea

Would that be enough to apply for tefl jobs or would you need a degree in Ireland? Higher certificate is a part of the undergraduade system.Do you have any experiences in that? I've been told that is quite a good thing to have but I am not sure about the tefl area.
