Russell Wangersky: A Conservative wolf in sealskin clothes
In St. John's on Thursday morning, Tory leadership candidate Kevin O'Leary slipped into an apparently borrowed sealskin coat to make one more connection when speaking with the locals.
To the editor,
I am disappointed with the Liberal government's decision regarding naming the new February Holiday.
Along with Viola Desmond's family, I am pleased that the 2015 holiday is to be dedicated to Viola Desmond. But I am shocked by the government's determination to deny Viola Desmond a permanent day, especially after so many individuals, municipalities, editorials and organizations, have called for naming the holiday "Viola Desmond Day."
To be clear: The provincial government – not our school children — has decided that February 15 in 2015 will be named "Viola Desmond Day" — but only for that one year. The government is inviting school children to immediately name the holiday for the next 12 years – effectively blocking "Viola Desmond Day" for the future.
I cannot understand why the Liberal government – speaking through Labour and Advanced Education Minister Kelly Regan and Communities, Culture and Heritage Minister Tony Ince – seems determined to deny Viola Desmond, a respected icon for Social Justice in Nova Scotia, the honour so many people have called for.
I agree with the Hon. Tony Ince who only a few days before this unfortunate announcement recalled the early opposition to African Heritage and Black History Month, saying "Today it is a great celebration… and it would be an honour to have an African Nova Scotian named for the holiday."
I recommend that government reconsider their decision in light of the suggestion presented to them by Viola Desmond's sister, Wanda Robson, to call the holiday "Viola Desmond Day – A Day To Honour All Those Who Have Fought for Social Justice in Nova Scotia." Call it that now, and forever. In that way, year-by-year, during Black History Month, school children can still select people and events to also be celebrated – all under the consistent banner of "Viola Desmond Day."
I recommend that Ms. Regan and Mr. Ince set an important example for our children – by correcting what I consider a mistake. I suggest they recognize the support "Viola Desmond Day" has received by calling the February Holiday "Viola Desmond Day — A Day To Honour All Those Who Have Fought for Social Justice in Nova Scotia." Each year, the names chosen by our school children will come up for remembrance — all the while continuing to honour the woman who is remembered for her fight against racial discrimination and her success as an African-Nova Scotian businesswoman.
There is still time to make this right and to proclaim a permanent day for Viola Desmond.
Ronald Caplan, C.M.

Schapelle Corby's family have blasted a woman who purported to be their former lawyer for comments she made on television, saying they were "in bad taste and ill-informed".
Kerry Smith-Douglas gave an interview on Channel 9's Today program on Thursday morning, saying the convicted drug smuggler will smoke "a big marijuana joint" upon her release from prison in Indonesia.
Asked how Corby would celebrate her freedom, Ms Smith-Douglas said: "She'll probably pop a cork of champagne and then roll up a big marijuana joint the size of a cigar and then kick back and enjoy herself."
Today host Karl Stefanovic asked Ms Smith-Douglas whether she herself had been smoking before her appearance. Without directly answering, she laughed and said that her eyes were red.
She later told Fairfax Radio station 3AW that the comments were just a "joke".
In a statement, the Corby family rejected the assertions by Ms Smith-Douglas that she had once acted for the family.
"This morning on the Today show Kerry Smith-Douglas was interviewed, introduced as, and claiming to be, the former lawyer of the Corby family. That assertion was incorrect," they said in a statement.
"Ms Smith-Douglas has never been retained by any member of the Corby family. They met with her on two occasions but they declined to engage her as their lawyer. The comments that Ms Smith-Douglas made on the Today programme are in bad taste and ill-informed."
The statement urged the Nine Network to "take more care" to check their sources before broadcasting such insensitive and hurtful material.
Ms Smith-Douglas has previously been identified in reports as having been a lawyer acting for the family.
In 2011, it was reported she had been "sacked" as their lawyer. A year before that, Schapelle's mother Rosalie Rose had been quoted as saying of Ms Smith-Douglas: "She's a strong and dedicated woman and we're going to work with her to bring Schapelle home."
Upon her apparent sacking, Ms Smith-Douglas was quoted in Fairfax Media as saying she would still campaign for Corby's release. ''I don't know for sure whether she is guilty or innocent,'' she said. ''All I know is, she has spent more than enough time in that Third World jail.''
Corby was convicted of smuggling marijuana into Bali in her boogie board bag and was sentenced to 20 years in jail in 2005. Her sentence was cut by five years in 2012 for good behaviour.
This week, Indonesian Justice Minister Amir Syamsuddin said Corby could be paroled from prison by as soon as Friday.
Asked later by Neil Mitchell on Fairfax Radio's 3AW if she was serious, Ms Smith-Douglas replied: "No. It was a joke; don't you have a sense of humour? Get a life. Loosen up. Enjoy a joke.
"If the Indonesians can't take a joke, then that's their problem."
Mitchell said that if Indonesia's authorities couldn't "take a joke, it could be Schapelle Corby's problem" as well.
It is expected that if Corby is allowed to leave prison she will remain in Bali until 2017 to meet parole conditions.

Eagles quarterback Nick Foles threw seven touchdowns on Sunday. Just let that sentence wash over you.
Foles completed scoring passes of 2, 5, 15, 17, 25, 46, and 63 yards against a Raiders' secondary that couldn't stop falling over itself and left receivers open for days. Three of those touchdowns went to wide receiver Riley Cooper . In the end, Foles completed 22 of 28 throws for 406. Yes, he had more touchdowns than incompletions. Foles became the seventh player in NFL history to throw seven touchdowns in a game and the second this year. Peyton Manning pulled it off against the Ravens in the first game of the regular season.
Fantasy Analysis:
The performance came with the facts that the Raiders had allowed four total touchdowns passes in their past four games, and Foles looked awful before leaving due to a concussion in his previous start back in Week 7. But hey, welcome to the NFL, where everything is apparently possible no matter what history says. Foles will start in Week 10 with a plus matchup against the Packers. But if you can somehow sell high on this incredible outing, feel free.

Admit it. You see a junco at the feeder and mentally shrug. Juncos. Pigeons. Whatever. It's a classic case of familiarity breeds, if not contempt, disinterest.
But juncos are rock stars in the documentary"Ordinary Extraordinary Junco," a DVD produced by Indiana University, a film released this spring for birders and anyone with even a minimal interest in birds.
The film starts at the University of San Diego, built in the 1960s amid sage scrub and chaparral. It was an environment not suitable for juncos, which lived at higher elevations in more friendly environs and migrated every winter.
Over the years, campus landscaping changed the environment, and in 1983 the first junco sighting was recorded.
In a short time, a critical mass of breeding pairs created a viable "island" of junco habitat. It also allowed researchers to study juncos that had adapted to cats, humans, construction, expansive lawns and artificial lights.
Researchers discovered that they had a ringside seat to rapid evolution.
The birds' breeding season shifted, the males were more interested in parenting and less aggressive in general (lower testosterone), had less white in their tails and less black in their heads, became bolder, explored more food opportunities, and allowed human approaches three times closer and twice as fast as noncampus juncos.
The males sang at a higher frequency to (theoretically) get their songs above the hum of traffic.
Evolution was happening practically in the moment and DNA and other physical evidence supported that conclusion.
The film is a terrific combination of photography, biology, evolution, interviews, field work and graphics; and would make an excellent teaching tool.
"Junco" takes viewers to several countries; discusses the connections between several junco types, including pink-sided, yellow-eyed and white-winged; and explores evolutionary issues.
For information on how to view the film, go to juncoproject.org/about/usage.
The film is extraordinary.
Starling stories: Words from readers seem to agree that starlings as a group are avian non grata, but interacting with an individual starling can be interesting. Vicky Bowerman of Snohomish had heard about Arnie the Darling Starling, which was "rescued," could talk and almost made the Tonight Show.
There was a starling named Radio, who had been rescued' by a woman who brought home many birds, dedicating a room in her home to their rehab. The room became so messy that, when opening the door, she got in the habit of saying, "What is this?!"
Young Radio Starling could mimic that sentence so that when she opened the door, Radio would say, "What is this?!"
One night a lightning and thunder storm came by. This time, when she opened the door, Radio greeted her with "What's this?" in a quivering, shaky little voice.
Bowerman's son brought home a baby bird, which they fed with wet cat food. When he could fly, he perched in a ficus tree, and when Bowerman read to her two young children, it would fly down and land on her head.
I stress that picking up baby birds and bringing them inside generally is not a good thing, even if done with a good heart.
For reasons, go to news.nationalgeographic.com and do a find on "baby bird out of nest"; or go toaudubonportland.org/wcc/urban/babybirds.

not sure if pregnant help appreciated
Hi, I have just gone to the doctors for a blood test, but it returned as negative, I have also taken 2 urines that have come back negative as well. Usually I wouldn't stress but I am skeptical because I am showing a lot of symptoms which is greatly unusual for me, especially the nausea and sore/ itchy nipples. I have never really had very regular periods but when i was last supposed to have one it was very light spotting and that was just over a month ago, I'm not sure if I could still be pregnant or if I'm just being paranoid, If anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

Dear stormy123,
Welcome to the forum and thank you for your question.
There can be other causes of nausea and sensitive nipples. Have you just had the pregnancy blood test this week (i.e. a month since you experienced the light period)? Pregnancy blood tests are very accurate. Both urine and blood pregnancy tests detect the pregnancy hormone in the body (hCG) - blood tests are capable of detecting the hCG from 6-8 days after you ovulate (i.e. before your period is even due). If your period was due a month ago and you have just had the blood pregnancy test then I'm afraid it would be highly, highly unlikely to come back falsely as negative.
You may find this pregnancy tests fact sheet helpful.
When did you take the urine pregnancy tests?
Do your periods have any pattern to them?
Warm wishes,

thankyou much appreciated, i had it a few days ago, i had the urine test about a week before that, I have never haad very regular periods, sometimes i can bleed for like 2 weeks at a time, but i usually get one at least oncea month, there have been occasions were it has been longer before i got one, I usually would brush it off but the sort of symptoms i've been having I haven't had ever, which is hard to ignore, such as the above and extra discharge, fatigue and increased nausea, not to mention i've been crying a lot more.
20th February 2014 05:31 AM #4
Dear stormy123,
Have you seen your doctor about your irregular periods? Are these being investigated at all?
Whilst the symptoms you describe do occur with pregnancy; a negative blood test a month after your period is due makes this unlikely. However, if your periods are so irregular that it's possible that your period was not due until much later on this occasion then it is possible that you are pregnant. I would wait another week and then take another pregnancy test. If you still don't get any answers then I would advise going back to your doctor.
Warm wishes,

WATERBURY, VT -- Green Mountain Coffee Roasters Inc. announced that it will buy LJVH Holdings, parent company of Canadian coffee roaster Van Houtte, for $890 million. The deal was announced Sept. 14 in Green Mountain's filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Green Mountain president and chief executive Lawrence Blanford said the acquisition will help drive penetration of the Keurig brewer in the Canadian market. He added that Van Houtte's well-known brands and roasting, manufacturing and distribution capabilities will likewise help strengthen the Vermont roaster's foothold in Canada.
Montreal-based Van Houtte was founded in 1919. In addition to Van Houtte, the company's brands are Brûlerie St. Denis, Les Cafés Orient Express Coffee and Brûlerie Mont Royal. They're sold throughout North America to the office coffee market and to retailers through direct store distribution. The company does about $433 million annual sales.
Since 2001, Van Houtte has had a license to produce K-Cup portion packs for Green Mountain's Keurig single-cup brewers under the Van Houtte, Bigelow and Wolfgang Puck K-Cup brands.
Following the close of the deal, Green Mountain said it will look to sell Filterfresh, Van Houtte's coffee service operation, which reportedly serves more than 71,000 offices in most major North American cities, and overlaps with Green Mountain's existing network of independent Keurig distributors in the U.S.
Green Mountain will purchase Van Houtte from an affiliate of private equity firm Littlejohn & Co., based in Greenwich, CT. Van Houtte president and chief executive Gerard Geoffrion will remain with the company. The Canadian roaster employs approximately 1,700 people in Canada and the U.S.
The deal, expected to close by yearend, is the latest in a series of acquisitions for Green Mountain, which completed its $300 million takeover of Diedrich Coffee Inc. in May. Diedrich was also licensed to produce Keurig K-Cups.
Last month, Green Mountain announced that Italian coffee giant Lavazza will purchase a $250 million stake in the Vermont-based roaster. The two companies reported that they are exploring a further agreement under which Green Mountain and Lavazza would cooperate to develop new espresso machines, which would be manufactured by Lavazza, as well as espresso capsules for them. The jointly developed machines would complement GMCR's line of Keurig single-cup coffee brewers.

Who is a carrier of hepatitis B?
About 10 percent of adults and most children less than 5 years old infected with hepatitis B are unable to clear the infection from their bodies. These individuals no longer have symptoms but still carry the virus in their body.
How would I know if I am a carrier of hepatitis B?
Most people do not know they are carriers of hepatitis B unless they get a blood test. A carrier usually has no signs or symptoms of hepatitis B, but will be infected for the rest of his/her life and is capable of passing the disease to others. Although most carriers have no serious problems with hepatitis B, some carriers develop liver problems later. If your blood test is positive for hepatitis B surface antigen twice, six months apart, then you are considered a hepatitis B carrier. About 1.25 million people in the U.S. have chronic hepatitis B infection.
Is there any treatment?
Some people who are carriers have benefited from treatment. Your health care provider can discuss treatment with you.
How did I get my infection?
You can get hepatitis B by direct contact with blood or certain body fluids, like semen or vaginal secretions, of a person who has it. For example, you can get it by having sex or sharing needles with a person who has it. A baby can get it from its mother during birth. It may be spread within households if razors, toothbrushes, or other personal items are shared. Approximately 25 percent of all persons with hepatitis B have no idea how they got it.
How can I take care of myself?
Hepatitis B carriers should see a doctor regularly. Blood tests may be needed to check how the liver is working. Hepatitis B carriers should avoid alcohol because alcohol can further damage the liver. Your doctor should know about the medicines you are taking, even over-the-counter, because some medicines can hurt the liver. You should get the hepatitis A vaccine to avoid further liver damage should you get exposed to the hepatitis A virus.
How can I keep my family and friends from getting this?
Why does my baby need medicine and vaccine shortly after birth?
Pregnant women who are infected with hepatitis B can spread the disease to their babies. Most babies will develop lifelong hepatitis B infection if they don't get special medicine and hepatitis B vaccine shortly after birth.

Bonacic: Ethics Agreement Is Fine on Paper; but Only Time Will Tell if It Lives Up to Its Name
State Senator John J. Bonacic (R/C/I – Mt. Hope), today stated he would vote for the ethics reform legislation announced by Governor Andrew Cuomo, Senate Majority Leader Dean Skelos, and Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver. The legislation is named the "The Clean Up Albany Act of 2011."
The terms of the ethic agreement include:
Greater Financial Disclosure: Financial disclosure statements filed with the new Joint Commission on Public Ethics from elected officials will now be posted on the internet and the practice of redacting the monetary values and amounts reported by the filer will be ended.
Increased Access to Who is Appearing Before the State and Why: The Act establishes a new database of any individual or firm that appears in a representative capacity before any state governmental entity.
Additional Disclosures for Registered Lobbyists: The bill expands lobbying disclosure requirements, including the disclosure by lobbyists of any "reportable business relationships" of more than $1,000 with public officials. It also expands the definition of lobbying to include advocacy to affect the "introduction" of legislation or resolutions, a change that will help to ensure that all relevant lobbying activities are regulated by the new Joint Commission.
Forfeiture of Pensions for Public Officials Convicted of a Felony: Certain public officials who commit crimes related to their public offices may have their pensions reduced or forfeited in a new civil forfeiture proceeding brought by the Attorney General or the prosecutor who handled the conviction of the official.
A New Joint Commission on Public Ethics: The Joint Commission on Public Ethics will replace the existing Commission on Public Integrity with jurisdiction over all elected state officials and their employees, both executive and legislative, as well as lobbyists. The bipartisan Joint Commission will consist of 14 members:
· Six appointed by the Governor and Lieutenant Governor, at least three of whom shall be enrolled members of the major political party that is not that of the Governor
· Eight appointed by the legislative leaders (four each from the two major political parties)
Among other restrictions, no individual will be eligible to serve on the Joint Commission who has within the last three years been a registered lobbyist, a statewide office holder, a legislator, a state commissioner or a political party chairman.
The Joint Commission will have jurisdiction to investigate potential violations of law by legislators and legislative employees and, if violations are found, issue findings to the Legislative Ethics Commission, which will have jurisdiction to impose penalties.
Clarifying Independent Expenditures For Elections: The Act requires the state board of elections to issue new regulations clarifying disclosure of Independent Expenditures.
Increased Penalties for Violations: The Act substantially increases penalties for violations of the filing requirements and contribution limits in the Election Law, and provides for a special enforcement proceeding in the Supreme Court. The bill also increases penalties for violations of certain provisions of the state's code of Ethics that prohibits conflicts of interest.
"I am optimistic this agreement will be different than ones in the past. I applaud Governor Cuomo, Senate Majority Leader Skelos, and even Assembly Speaker Silver for negotiating and reaching this agreement. However, the proof will only be in the results – is Albany a more functional, ethical place, where the public can have faith in their representatives? Is the public better served? Those tests, not the press releases announcing this agreement, will determine the ultimate success of this legislation," Senator Bonacic said.

Luna: Sustainability 'mainstream' at Carolina
USC's Gene Luna, associate vice president for University Housing and Student Development, was recently appointed to the Association for Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education's National Advisory Council until 2015. We caught up with Luna to discuss USC's sustainability efforts and his role in the "greening" of campus.
Why is sustainability important for USC?
As the flagship for the state, the University of South Carolina is uniquely positioned to model and promote sustainability throughout South Carolina. In addition, regardless of a student's major and planned career, having basic understanding of sustainability will be increasingly important. Sustainability issues touch all employment paths and will only increase in importance for our future graduates.
What role have you played in making USC "greener"?
I've been a member of the World Future Society since my mid-20s and recognized that sustainability was going to be much more than a societal trend many years ago. In my former role as director of University Housing, I had the ability to experiment in the early and mid-'90s.
I started with the laundry rooms in the residence halls and had engineers provide an estimate of the potential savings if we converted to the emerging technology with front loading washers and dryers. Over the objections of our laundry vendor, we required the company to change all our equipment to these machines, costly as they were at the time. The result was a savings of 2 million gallons of water and $15,000 savings in gas and electricity annually.
How did that lead to Green Quad, the university's first "green" building?
In 1999, Dean Bruce Coull, then the School of the Environment had the president establish the Environmental Advisory Committee (EAC) and I was one of the first members. After one meeting of the EAC, I mentioned to Coull that I was getting ready to start designing a new residence complex. He casually suggested I make it a "green" building and I agreed, although I didn't really know yet what a "green" building was and who certified them.
In 2001, we began design of Green Quad with architects and engineers who had never done a green building and hired a contractor who had never built one. Together, with University Housing, we delivered the university's first LEED-certified building, opening it in 2004, and it quickly became as we envisioned, "a beacon for sustainability" for the university, the Columbia metro area and throughout the state.
What has been the impact of that?
What I failed to realize at first was the regional and national attention it would bring to USC. In the first two to three years, we hosted thousands of visitors for tours, hosted the creation of initial meetings of the S.C. chapter of the U.S. Green Building Council, hosted and toured the secretary of energy and Stanford University's architect among others. I also participated in the ultimate development of a state statute that requires all publicly funded new construction to meet the same LEED criteria as Green Quad.
We have won numerous awards for these and other efforts, and the university has been seen as a nationwide leader in the sustainability movement. University Housing continues its leadership and now has built or renovated six "green" residence halls, with Patterson Hall and the Honors Residence achieving LEED Gold certification.
Green Quad was the largest green residence hall in the country in 2004. How has the university, its sustainability efforts and Green Quad itself changed since then?
In the "early" days there was considerable resistance to green buildings and other environmental initiatives from pockets of campus. That has changed 360 degrees. While early initiatives were started by staff, we now have students providing leadership for many initiatives. Now all new buildings and major renovations have environmental stewardship central to the design.
As for Green Quad itself, the activity level has skyrocketed with students, faculty and staff working together on numerous projects. There is now a "Green Living Community" of 40 or so residents embedded among the 500 residents of Green Quad. There are many more, and 95 percent of these initiatives began after Green Quad opened in 2004 – just eight years ago.
Since then the university seems more committed to sustainability on campus. What is going on on campus to continue moving forward in green efforts?
Currently I'm involved with several housing projects and the new health center project that will add to our inventory of green buildings on campus.
The Moore School of Business has implemented a sustainability focused curriculum and is building our first "net-zero" building. Outdoor recreation has adopted green practices -- planting trees, starting the bike program, initiating the garden plot project on Preston Green and planting the second organic garden on campus.
Transportation Services has adopted a sustainability plan. University Housing now has eco-reps in each residence hall. The Campus Master Plan now has a sustainability section. There are now eight or so other organic gardens sponsored and maintained by different departments. We have provided workshops to teach faculty across disciplines how they can incorporate sustainability into their courses. We now have a University Office of Sustainability staffed by three full-time employees and numerous peer leaders and interns under the umbrella Sustainable Carolina.
More departments have adopted or created additional pockets of sustainability enthusiasts. All new buildings and major renovations are required to meet sustainability criteria for "green" buildings. Sustainability has simply become mainstream at the University of South Carolina.
What do you hope is the outcome of these efforts?
I want every student who attends USC to become articulate about sustainability issues, particularly as it relates to their major course of study and understands practical applications for the professions they pursue as alumni of the university.

I've never read Mary Karr's poetry so I'll have to consider that. I would add to your list the work of Billy Collins. Of course I can't think of a title off the top of my head, but I read a lot of his work in April.

My favorite poem is "Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout" by Shel Silverstein. In 5th grade we had to memorize a story, speech, etc as part of a school assembly on public speaking. The above is what I picked. Let's just say I woke up the audience and made them laugh. It is still my favorite and I still remember all of it, and I'm 50something.
In Perry. NY where I live we do an event every year called "Poetry in Motion." All the local writers print out their poems (and we do use some from famous poets)and they are taped to the windows of the businesses along Main Street for the last weekend in April. It's amazing how many people stop to read them, or pull one off to take home.

Where is Walt Whitman? I never knew how much I appreciated his poetry until this April. We read a poem every night at the dinner table, and time and again, I found myself choosing his words. They are accessible to my children, ages 5, 9, and 12, and I think it's important that we teach our kids that there is poetry out there for them beyond Shel Silverstein. (Who is WONDERFUL.)

Emily, I hear you! As Gary said, picking favorites is an impossible task, which is why I'm so appreciative of the excellent comments we've received to contribute to this list. In addition to Whitman and the other poets mentioned, where's Shakespeare, where's Bishop, where's Lowell, where's Jarrell . . . there's so much stellar poetry available.

Ezra Pound's "In a Station of the Metro"
I know it's short and odd but I had to read it and analyze it in my favorite English class my Junior year of high school, and that class is what really made me want to go into the publishing business. This poem has so much hidden meaning and it really speaks to me.

The Library Board of Trustees encourages and accepts gifts to be added to the assets of the Wixom Public Library as long as the gift is consistent with the policies set by the Board of Trustees. The Library retains unconditional ownership of all donations and makes the final decision on acceptance, use, or disposition. The appraisal of the gift for tax purposes is the responsibility of the donor. Initial discretion to accept or reject a gift other than library materials (books, cassettes, videos, magazines) is left up to the Director with the final retention decision being made at the next regular meeting of the Library Board.
When the Library receives a cash gift for the purchase of materials, whether as a memorial or for any other purpose, the general nature or subject area of the materials to be purchased will be based upon the wishes of the donor. Selection of specific titles, however, will be made by the library staff in accordance with the needs and selection policies of the Library. Gifts of books, cassettes, videos and other library materials will be added to the collection if they meet the same standards required of purchased materials. Gift materials not meeting such standards may be disposed of as the Library Director deems appropriate. Special collections and memorial collections will not be shelved as separate physical entities.

Re: On-Campus jobRyan Cefalu Jul 24, 2013 3:21 PM (in response to Bridget Runner)
Bridget, I have been at MSOE for four years now and I have had an on-campus job since my Freshman summer. MSOE's on-campus jobs are perfect for students and allow flexible scheduling, nine times out of ten the supervisor or boss has knowledge of how difficult and overwhelming MSOE can get. In turn, they are very understanding and relaxed when it comes to scheduling. I have never felt that an on campus job was a lot to handle, and I am sure he will not have an issue.
Re: On-Campus jobBridget Runner Jul 24, 2013 5:02 PM (in response to Ryan Cefalu)
Thanks I will share your response with my son. How does he go about applying for a job?
Re: On-Campus jobRyan Cefalu Aug 28, 2013 1:09 PM (in response to Bridget Runner)
Details on the process and openings on student employment can be found at the following link: http://www.msoe.edu/community/admissions/financial-aid/page/1510/student-employment-and-work-study
Re: On-Campus jobBridget Runner Jul 29, 2013 5:07 PM (in response to Ryan Cefalu)
Doesn't look like 2013-2014 jobs are listed yet. Who should my son contact to be considered for a job this school year?
Re: On-Campus jobKip Kussman Aug 24, 2013 12:58 PM (in response to Bridget Runner)
Hey Bridget- Tell him to keep checking. Job postings pop up through out the year.
Re: On-Campus jobErik Oswald Aug 29, 2013 9:45 AM (in response to Bridget Runner)
Hi Bridget,
Looks like the '13-'14 jobs can be found here:
Your son should definitely stop by the Career Services Office (3rd floor CC building) to learn about our resume database so he can receive internship opportunities that are posted by employers and be eligible for on-campus interviews this year.
Re: On-Campus jobRyan Cefalu Jul 30, 2013 8:16 AM (in response to Bridget Runner)
Although the site doesn't say that it is for the newest school year, those jobs are for this school year. If you navigate into the 2012-2013 academic year and look at the various postings you will find that they were posted this summer.
Re: On-Campus jobJudith Prest Aug 23, 2013 11:57 AM (in response to Bridget Runner)
School should always be your sons number one priority!
Re: On-Campus jobPatrick Van Handel Aug 23, 2013 5:57 PM (in response to Bridget Runner)
He can always opt out if it becomes too overwhelming! However, most jobs are extremely flexible.
Re: On-Campus jobCoral Baehne Aug 27, 2013 12:02 PM (in response to Bridget Runner)
The best part of on-campus jobs is that the faculty and staff know a lot about our course load and schedules so they are very flexible and willing to accommodate for students' schedules to make things work.
Re: On-Campus jobBarinderpal Singh Aug 27, 2013 1:04 PM (in response to Bridget Runner)
Hey Bridget, If your son wants flexible job then tell him to become a "LRC Tutor". I am tutoring for the past 3 years with my own set hours.
Re: On-Campus jobKarl Barth Aug 27, 2013 1:18 PM (in response to Bridget Runner)
I am also a tutor and I agree with Barinderpal Singh about the flexibility of the hours. They have various drop-in centers still available to work with. Additionally, your son can be a one-on-one tutor and meet with students at a time available for them both.
Re: On-Campus jobJanelle Leafblad Aug 27, 2013 1:37 PM (in response to Bridget Runner)
My favorite work-study job was a student helper in the department office of my program. This way I got to know all of the professors and support staff very well and I felt like I had a finger on the pulse of the program. An interesting side-benefit was that it was my job to post the summer internship openings - what a great way to see the broad range of opportunities available!
Re: On-Campus jobErika Kuznia Aug 27, 2013 3:26 PM (in response to Bridget Runner)
Bridget, I've been a student worker for the past 3 years at MSOE. I just wanted to join in the conversation to reiterate A) how important it is that school comes first (I made that mistake) and B) what an awesome opportunity it has been for me.
I've worked at the CCID desk and in the Environmental Health and Safety department. The CCID desk was a great job because it allowed me to study/work on homework while I was on the job. Working in the EHS department has been more like an internship and I haven't been able to do homework on the job. I think the most important thing in looking for an on campus job is making sure that you know what kind of position you want (the ability to do school work when there's nothing else to do or having flexible hours, etc).
Re: On-Campus job
I have 15 students workers on my help desk staff and school work is the reason they are here. If additional time is needed during the quarter to complete school work, I will adjust their hours downward. I have also allowed students to take the whole quarter off to complete senior design projects.
Re: On-Campus jobSarah Rowell Aug 27, 2013 4:54 PM (in response to Bridget Runner)
Hi Bridget,
My name is Sarah and I do much of the hiring for the MSOE Walter Schroeder Library.
Tip: Before applying, be sure to have your son read the job's requirements thoroughly. That can save him some extra time and trouble.
Flexibility: Campus employers, perhaps more than those in the public sector, understand that the students are here first and foremost to be students. I try to work with our student employees when we create their schedules for the quarter and often if it turns out there is a shift they can't cover, I will help them find another library student worker who can. This allows our workers a little wiggle room when it comes to team meetings, projects, and the occasional trip home.
Opting out: Yes, students can do that. We regularly lose student employees to internships and other opportunities. From the employer's perspective, having some advance notice is greatly appreciated as hiring a new student will likely be required.
Most jobs on campus are for about 10 hours per week, an amount that many students can work with (if you'll forgive the pun).
I hope this helps.
Best wishes,
Sarah Rowell
MSOE Walter Schroeder Library
Re: On-Campus jobBridget Runner Aug 27, 2013 9:26 PM (in response to Bridget Runner)
Thank you for all the input!! I don't exactly understand what "work study" is but Im pretty sure my son doesn't qualify. With that said, what are the chances that he would find one of these wonderful on-campus jobs? It's not even really about the money, but just getting him out and about. He spends most of his time in his dorm on his studies (which isn't a bad thing) but I would think it's also important to be involved and to meet other students not in his field and staff as well.
Re: On-Campus jobLeigh Ann Hass Aug 27, 2013 10:30 PM (in response to Bridget Runner)
Check out this page: http://www.msoe.edu/community/admissions/financial-aid/blog/2013/06/07/federal-work-study. It will give you information about work study, but tell your son to keep checking because even if he doesn't qualify there are many other options for working on campus. Tell him to keep checking and rest assured that studies come first. We are very flexible with our students and treat them like they are one of our own.
Re: On-Campus jobLeigh Ann Hass Aug 27, 2013 10:45 PM (in response to Leigh Ann Hass)
Re: On-Campus jobBarinderpal Singh Aug 28, 2013 9:45 AM (in response to Bridget Runner)
Hi Bridget, you are absolutely correct about meeting other students and staff members in msoe. Getting an on campus job could be easy as filling out a 'survey form' or it could be tough depending on how many other students apply to that particular job.
If your son likes studying a lot (good) then I highly recommend him becoming any kind of tutor. One of the major reason I became a tutor so that I can be subject matter expert on smaller scale. In my case, I still remember lot of stuff from my 2010 courses because I am tutoring those courses to other students to expand my knowledge and learn new stuff from them. As of today, I am still using that knowledge in my internship to do my work. He will get the opportunity to work with wide variety of students and get to know professors from his/her point of view. In addition, his communication skills will improve after explaining a project or concept to group of students who might understand things differently.
If he can tutor chemistry/physics courses then he can easily get a job in LRC as long as his grades are above B average.
Re: On-Campus jobHali Peterson Aug 29, 2013 9:33 AM (in response to Bridget Runner)
I am also curious about finding an on campus job. I will be an incoming freshman who does not qualify for work-study jobs. I have been told that finding a job is still easy, but all the postings either require work-study qualifications or a strong computer background (which I very much lack). I do very much need a job or I will not be able to stay at MSOE. Can anybody offer any suggestions? I already have credit for calc 1 and 2 and would love to tutor. How does one start something like that?
Re: On-Campus jobErik Oswald Aug 29, 2013 9:42 AM (in response to Hali Peterson)
Hi Hali,
If an on-campus job is not an option because you do not qualify for work-study, there are options off campus. We (the Career Services Office) do not necessarily recommend that you do an off-campus internship during your first year (summer after is fine), but many students find opportunities with local parking companies (either as valets or as parking garage attendants) as well as with local hotels. While jobs like those may not be quite as flexible as an on-campus job, they could offer flexible hours and the opportunity to do homework if things are slow.
Feel free to stop by our office (3rd floor of the CC building) when you get to campus and check for any opportunities that have been sent to us.
My son will be starting his second year at MSOE as a ME and is thinking of applying for an on-campus job. Any input?? What if it becomes too much for him, can he opt out?

Laughter is a bold declaration of happiness.
We're all familiar with its contagious effect, and attempts to stifle it often result in uncontrollable giggles. Professional comedians claim that there is humor to be found in virtually any situation, given enough time. We all know that laughing feels good, but what impact does it have on our daily wellbeing? Let's turn to the research to find out.
Recent studies suggest that laughter enhances the quality of romantic relationships. One experiment found that couples instructed to reminisce about occasions where they laughed together reported being more satisfied with their relationships, compared to couples that remembered times when they laughed apart from one another or times when they shared positive (but not funny) experiences1.
Interestingly, the occasions on which couples laughed together were not always positive. This suggests that the ability to laugh about neutral or even negative experiences together enhances relationship satisfaction, which is highly related to feeling happy.
Read Live Simply: Unclutter Your Daily Health Routine
How can you make this work for your relationship? Next time you and your significant other are caught in traffic or dine at a mediocre restaurant, help each other find the humor in the situation.
Each time you do this, you create one more memory for the both of you to fondly remember.
Research also indicates that laughter is powerful enough to enhance our physical health. A recent experiment found that mothers who watched and laughed at a Charlie Chaplin movie, "Modern Times," had higher levels of melatonin in their breast milk, which helped reduce allergic responses and promoted better sleep in their infant children. Another group of mothers that watched a video about weather information did not experience this change2.
Another experiment revealed that women who watched a humorous movie reported lower stress levels and experienced greater immune system functionality, relative to a control group that watched a tourism video3. Finally, laughing has been associated with decreased levels of prorenin in the blood, which is involved in the onset of diabetic complications4.
Laughter may not be the best medicine, but it does seem to have a legitimate medicinal value.

Katy Perry files $6.5 million counterclaim against beauty company
Listen to Katy Perry on iHeartRadio
Katy Perry is striking back at GHD, the British hair care company that filed a lawsuit against her earlier this month. GHD claims it dropped the pop star from her two-year, four-point-five-million dollar endorsement contract after their research showed she had lost market appeal.
But Perry's attorneys have responded with a counterclaim saying GHD continued to use the star's name and image when it had no legal right to.
According to "The Hollywood Reporter," Katy also claims the company only dropped her when they did because they didn't want a rift to come between a proposed sale.
She's demanding the company pay up the six-point-five million she says she's owed, accusing GHD of violating her publicity rights and breaching their oral contract.

Paul Merson
Football Expert & Columnist @PaulMerse
Power Rangers
Paul Merson reckons QPR will pick up their first win, but says Sunderland's struggles will continue.
Last Updated: 30/11/12 4:02pm
As ever, you can follow all the Premier League action this weekend on Sky Sports.
We asked Soccer Saturday expert Paul Merson to look at the fixtures and give us his verdict on where the games will be won and lost.
Every week he'll be here on skysports.com to share his views on who he expects to be the winners and losers of the weekend.
Ford Football Special: West Ham v Chelsea
12.30pm, Sat, Sky Sports 2 HD
I think Andy Carroll can pick up some form now that he has scored a goal, but I also feel Kevin Nolan will play a big role.
He is so hard to pick up and with Chelsea's holding players, Oriol Romeu and Jon Obi Mikel, not great at tracking back, he could get a lot of chances at the edge of the box.
I always thought West Ham would do the best out of the promoted teams because they have got a really experienced manager in Sam Allardyce and Southampton (Nigel Adkins) and Reading (Brian McDermott) don't. That makes a massive difference in this division.
Benitez has been booed at Stamford Bridge but Chelsea have a big following away from home and they'll make themselves heard if things aren't going very well!
They haven't really looked like scoring in Benitez's first two games; sometimes you draw 0-0 and you have 20 chances but that hasn't happened with Chelsea. Everyone should have seen that happening, though, because their new manager is very defensive.
Ford Super Sunday: Norwich v Sunderland
3.15pm, Sun, Sky Sports 1 HD
Norwich are a bit more organised now and bit more solid at the back, a change from earlier in the season when they were letting in fours and fives. You won't win any football match if you do that - even if you're Barcelona.
Chris Hughton has gone back to basics and said: 'Let's make ourselves hard to beat'. They have done that and they always have a chance in games because they have got players that can make things happen, like Wes Hoolahan and Robert Snodgrass in midfield and Grant Holt up front.
I thought Hughton did a good job at Newcastle and the way he has been able to pick Norwich up after a poor start shows what qualities he has. They are sitting in mid-table now and this is a much bigger game for Sunderland than it is for them.
I watched Martin O'Neill's team against QPR in midweek and they weren't very good at all. They had no spark.
Lee Cattermole went off very early and they missed him because he is a must in their side; he gets his team-mates and the fans going with his attitude, while Adam Johnson looked a shadow of what he was.
I think O'Neill is under pressure because of where they are in the league and because they have spent a lot of money on Johnson and Steven Fletcher. I don't think he will be sacked but it is probably the first time he has been under fire in his managerial career.
Ford Monday Night Football: Newcastle v Wigan
7pm, Mon, Sky Sports 1 HD
I think Newcastle's run of four defeats on the spin is down to injuries. When they can get their best XI on the pitch they are a match for anyone but, like Everton and West Brom, if they are missing a few players they are going to struggle.
What will be worrying for Alan Pardew, though, is the sides they have lost to; they have been beaten at home by West Ham and Swansea, got well beaten at Southampton and, although, they could have nicked the match, they lost at Stoke on Wednesday.
Without being disrespectful, they are bottom-half teams and Alan would have looked at a lot of those games and thought: 'We are looking at seven points here, if not nine'.
Newcastle would rather be playing Wigan than Man United but Roberto Martinez's team can play on the day. Their football can be very good and I thought they were pretty unlucky against Man City in midweek.
However, we tend to say 'Wigan' and 'unlucky' in the same sentence a lot and if you keep being unlucky something's not right. I think they will lose again at Newcastle - but only just.
Arsenal v Swansea
I think Arsenal will just about win this, but if Swansea go out with the confidence they showed against West Brom they will give Arsenal a massive scare. I think Lukas Podolski, if he gets over his virus, could be a big player for Arsenal; he seems to be settling in now and you don't play 100 times for a country as good as Germany if you're poor.
Fulham v Tottenham
Tottenham got a good result in the week at home to Liverpool, but so did Fulham, who drew with Chelsea. I will go for the away team, though, because Brede Hangeland is still suspended for Fulham and Tottenham have Moussa Dembele back; the Belgian has started five games for Spurs this season and they have won them all.
Liverpool v Southampton
I will go for Liverpool because of the Luis Suarez factor but it won't be a walk in the park. I am a little bit more confident that Southampton will stay up now; they have picked up a few results and have a very good team spirit. But they should have beaten Norwich after going 1-0 up and dropped points like that can mount up.
Man City v Everton
I thought Everton were unfortunate to only draw with Arsenal in midweek, but they have only won one in eight now and they cannot finish teams off. Man City have a couple of clean sheets in the bank now, including a very easy one at Chelsea and they always have that bit of class that can finish teams off - like James Milner's strike against Wigan.
QPR v Aston Villa
QPR were better than Sunderland the other day, but there was still something missing, and with Villa winning, Rangers have to win this game, while Paul Lambert's team will be okay with a draw. Villa are young but they do have a bit of pace in the team with Andreas Weimann and could be dangerous on the break - but the Harry Redknapp factor will get QPR the win.
West Brom v Stoke
West Brom's defeat at Swansea was a case of 'Welcome back to the Premier League'. I thought they would win in Wales considering how well they were playing but they got a hiding. Stoke had a good result against Newcastle but there is something wrong there if you haven't won away for 16 games in the Premier League.
Reading v Man Utd
Football is a funny old game and you can't count anyone out in the Premier League - just look at what Norwich did to Man United a couple of weeks ago. But Reading looked very poor at Aston Villa in midweek and I don't really remember them having a shot. I think Man United will get a comfortable win and stay top of the table.

With no college offers in sight entering his senior season, Layton wide receiver Marcus Kemp decided it was time to go to work.
While he dedicated himself to the weight room, ate everything in sight to add to his lanky 6-foot-5 frame and worked on his route running, Kemp paid specific attention to his attitude.
"I knew I had to do something to get to college," Kemp said.
Kemp takes the field every Friday with the attitude that, "You're not going to be able to guard me."
Kemp is averaging 20 yards per catch and has reeled in seven touchdowns. He's starting to attract the attention of college scouts and giving the Lancers' Region 1 opponents serious problems.
"He's a diamond in the rough," Layton coach Jim Batchelor said. "He's deceptively fast and chews ground up in a hurry."
But Layton is not a one-man show.
Utah State signee Tyler Fox always played running back before high school, but the Layton coaching staff immediately noticed a terrific athlete with great speed who could change direction on a dime.
"Not a lot of high school kids can make people miss the way he does," Batchelor said. "We put him in motion a lot and try to get him into space."
Fox's ability to reel ability to evade tacklers even catches Kemp's eye during plays.
"I'll be downfield making a block, and it's hard not to look because he can do some really special things," said Kemp, who regularly works on footwork drills with Fox.
The two receivers showcased their diverse talents during Friday's 41-21 win over Davis.
Fox scored on runs of 5 and 18 yards, and he caught a 39-yard strike from quarterback Hunter Evans. Kemp scored on a 79 yard bomb.
"Add running back Willie Usailaa into the mix, and I think we're really explosive and a lot for defenses to think about," Fox said.
Kemp and Fox have combined for 45 catches, 808 yards and 19 touchdowns to help lead the Lancers to a 4-3 record.
Darts earn title
The Davis girls cross country team easily won the Bob Firman Invitational in Boise, a meet that regularly features some of the top teams in the western United States. The Darts scored just 58 points to easily outdistance second-place Park City, which scored 108 points.
Davis senior, Shea Martinez finished third in the 5-kilometer race with a time of 18 minutes, 13 seconds. Teammate Ellie Child was sixth at 18:25.
Layton to miss playoffs
After missing the state tournament by just a half game last year, Layton looks like it will come up just short again.
The Lancers sat two games back with one to go after a 1-0 loss to Region 1 winner Davis last week.
Senior Shelby Green led the Lancers with eight goals entering the season finale.
Bountiful off to hot start
The Bountiful volleyball team entered Region 6 play with a 6-6 record before winnings its first four matches in region play.
Ali Packard had 13 digs, six kills and three aces in a 3-0 win over East and 12 kills in a 3-0 non-region win over Viewmont to lead the Braves.
Explosive mix
It's rare not to see Kemp and Fox on the field. Kemp plays free safety and Fox plays cornerback on defense.
Layton running back Willie Usailaa had a 22-yard scoring run and blocked a punt that he ran back 85 yards for a score in Friday's 41-21 win over Davis.

Man stabbed, left in street
Saturday around 4 a.m., Central Precinct officers responded to Southwest Naito Parkway underneath the Burnside Bridge on the report of a pedestrian hit by a car.
Officers arrived and located the victim, a male adult, lying in the roadway just South of the bridge near Southwest Ankeny Street. The victim had not been hit by a car but was suffering from a stab wound.
Medical personnel transported the victim to a Portland hospital where he is in critical condition with life-threatening injuries.
Homicide detectives and Criminalists from the Forensic Evidence Division are processing the crime scene and are in the early stages of an investigation.
There is no suspect information at this time and it is not known if the victim was one of the homeless people sleeping under the Burnside Bridge.

Engine swaps have been around as long as there have been different manufacturers making a variety of models. Whether it's putting a flathead V8 in your Model A Ford, or injecting some modern power into your aging muscle car, an engine swap can define an entire vehicle. Such is the case with this spectacular 1967 Mustang that's dressed up like a Shelby GT500 and packs a 2004 Mustang Cobra power plant under the hood. That means 32 valves, a supercharger, and drivability that they couldn't imagine back in the good old, bad old days. The rest of the car was updated as well, but the basic goodness of the Mustang shape was retained, along with the very best Shelby upgrades, creating a Pro-Touring fastback that has to be seen to be believed.
Built by the guys at Pro Touring Super Cars (a division of Speed, Inc.), this was a cost-no-object car from the beginning. Speed, Inc. specializes in putting late model power into vintage muscle, and bringing the latest technology to bear on the cars of the past. What better way to do that than build a Shelby GT500 tribute with one of Ford's most potent late-model powertrains? The body on this '67 was given a rotisserie restoration, which means that it was fixed and smoothed inside and out, top and bottom. Anything that needed attention, got it, and everything was put into better-than-new condition before any paint was sprayed. The idea was a showcase, remember? Gaps were adjusted until they were far better than the factory could ever manage, and the hood was finished to levels that nobody at the Shelby factory could have imagined was possible in 1967. Once everything was straight, that spectacular Acapulco Blue paint was applied using 2-stage urethane. Shelby stripes were sprayed, then buried under the clear, and Shelby GT500 callouts were applied to the rockers. Additional Shelby details include the rear cap and integrated spoiler, C-pillar and quarter panel scoops, nose cone with center-mounted lights, and that vented Shelby hood (and if you've seen originals, you know how wavy they really were). Without looking under the hood, you could be forgiven for thinking this was a real Shelby.
Of course, things like the badges, the gas cap, the grille, and other Shelby-specific parts were also added and are beautiful reproductions. The chrome and stainless was refinished or replaced with new components, and the glass is new all around. Out back, the Shelby sequential taillights have been replaced with trick LEDs that give the car an appropriate 21st century twist. But the real treat is the supercharged 2004 Cobra motor under the hood. If you've been following Ford performance for the past 15 years or so, you know that these 4-cam motors can make BIG power from their relatively modest displacement. With forced induction, they breathe better than a big block and put down some astounding numbers while maintaining incredible civility. And if you've ever heard one at full song, you know what I'm talking about – they have just about the sweetest exhaust note this side of a Ferrari V8. The motor in this '67 is a built 2004 Cobra piece that features a custom induction system to fit it into the '67s engine bay. There's a smaller pulley on the supercharger to up the boost (these engines with their forged bottom ends can easily handle a lot more boost than the factory permits), and a custom Aeromotive fuel system to ensure that it is adequately fed at all speeds. A custom heat exchanger and reservoir were crafted to allow it all to fit under the Shelby hood, and up front, a massive aluminum radiator keeps it cool no matter how hard you run. A set of custom-built headers handle the exhaust and if anything, they magnify that sweet engine note. The engine was beautifully dressed with custom painted cam covers that look a lot like Boss 429 or SOHC 427 pieces – perfect for the 1967 body. It even features cool "Powered by Ford" logos for a distinctly Shelby touch. With a custom ECM programmed by the experts at Speed, Inc., it starts instantly, idles perfectly even when it's cold, and pulls like a freight train. There are no flat spots in the power curve, and I know this because there's a dyno sheet that comes with the car showing that it just keeps climbing and climbing to a peak of 444 horsepower and 495 pounds of torque at the wheels- impressive!
The rest of the hardware is just as impressive. The floors have been painted in red oxide, as original, although I doubt the workers on the assembly line in 1967 were as careful and precise as the guys at PTSC. The transmission is a T56, also taken from a Cobra Mustang, and it is easily up to the horsepower challenge. The clutch is a Centerforce DFX unit with a hydraulic conversion to work with the older car. Out back, there's a built Ford 9-inch with 3.90 gears and a limited slip – and if you're worried about those tall gears, remember the deep overdrive which makes high-speed cruising effortless and greatly improves fuel mileage. Those beautiful headers dump into a custom X-pipe and exhaust system featuring Magnaflow mufflers and tips, all finished in satin black for a different look and to keep it out of sight on the road. Up front, the suspension hangs from a custom Martz subframe and features a Martz power rack-and-pinion setup and Strange 12-way adjustable coil-over shocks. Out back, there's a G-bar 4-link system with another set of 12-way adjustable VariShocks. At each corner, a massive Wilwood brake disc hides behind killer 18-inch Coys wheels wearing BFGoodrich G-Force T/A performance radials. A set of stout subframe connectors tie everything together rigidly, and you can feel the improvements in chassis rigidity from the driver's seat.
Speaking of the driver's seat, the interior has been reworked as well. Beginning with a foundation of DynaMat throughout, which helps control noise and temperatures, this Shelby tribute is almost Lincoln quiet inside. Most of the soft parts are original style, and that's a factory "Deluxe" black interior. The dashboard has been subtly remodeled to house new Speed, Inc., gauges with silver faces for a traditional, but updated appearance and much better functionality. That's a genuine Shelby wood steering wheel, and overhead a trick console with built-in map lights. The shifter on top of the T56 looks vintage and displays the correct 6-speed shift pattern. In back, the trunk features a correct mat and you've already noticed that the battery is now mounted back here for improved weight distribution and to make way for the very wide DOHC engine. The odometer shows only 475 shakedown miles since the build was completed, ensuring that this car is as good as it can possibly be.
Documentation is exhaustive, primarily in the form of a build book that shows dozens, perhaps hundreds, of photos of all aspects of the build. If you need to know how it was done, what it looked like before, during, or after, the answers are all here. There are no questions about the quality of the workmanship or the skill that was required to construct this amazing vehicle- it's all there in photos.
I flat-out love this car. I'm a big fan of the 32-valve Cobra motors and how unbelievably smooth they are and how much power they can make. Add in a 6-speed manual, and you have a very potent acceleration curve. Combine that with what is arguably one of the best-looking Mustangs of all time-the Shelby GT500 fastback – and you end up with a take-no-prisoners supercar. The suspension and brakes have been upgraded to keep pace with the engine's prodigious output, while the interior has been left alone because there's no use in messing with a great design. Ultimately, you end up with a car that's unquestionably faster than a real GT500, handles better, stops shorter, is more comfortable to drive, gets better fuel mileage, and probably will require less maintenance. Whereas the downside to all that? If you're looking for a heart-stopping cruise missile that will draw a crowd three deep at the next cruise night, here it is. It's not cheap, but I'll also bet that it couldn't be duplicated for the asking price. This is A LOT of car for the money. Call now!

RejeX works on nearly every automotive surface! Use RejeX to seal and protect painted metal, acrylic, gel coat, fiberglass, glossy plastic and polished metal surfaces. Use it on the wheels, bodywork, headlights, and grill. Use RejeX on your boat, RV, ATV, airplane, and motorcycle. RejeX will keep your entire collection of vehicles well-protected with minimal upkeep. Remember, a blast of water is all it takes to release most contaminants from the slick finish.
RejeX is the only paint protectant you need! It lasts longer and protects better than most paint sealants. RejeX has a higher refractive index than most waxes, so it produces a deeper, richer luster. Apply a coat of RejeX and there's no need for any other wax. In fact, wax can't adhere well to RejeX's high-release finish. That's a testament to RejeX's ability to shield your vehicle from anything it encounters.
Wipe RejeX onto the paint in a thin, even coat.
Buff off RejeX with a soft, clean microfiber towel.
RejeX works by cross-linking across the paint to form a clear, impervious coating. To do this, RejeX must cure for 12 hours after application. This curing time is essential to the performance and longevity of RejeX. During the curing time, the vehicle should not come into contact with water, oil, cleaners, soot, or any other contaminants. Once cured, RejeX will provide up to 12 months of protection on paint that is in good condition. Most vehicles will require reapplication every 4-6 months for optimum protection. Additional coats of RejeX can be applied as long as you wait 8 hours between each coat.
If at any time you wish to remove RejeX, simply use a polish, paint cleaner or compound. RejeX does not contain the silicone oils found in some other products that contaminate paint.
RejeX contains no abrasives. Use it on glass, windshields, and clear plastics, including Eisenglass and Plexiglas. It repels water to maintain better visibility and a cleaner surface.
Applied to wheels, Rejex prevents brake dust adhesion to make future cleaning easier.
Because RejeX is a true paint sealant, it is important to properly prep the paint before applying RejeX. Polish and/or clay the vehicle to remove any imperfections or embedded dirt before applying RejeX. The finish will look cleaner, clearer, and more brilliant.
Give all your vehicles the ultimate protection against dirt and grime plus a deep shine with RejeX! The high-release polymer finish rejects contamination to keep your vehicle clean and protected.

As a future mum, I would like to have a normal delivery same as other mother in the whole world. It gives me a creep just thinking of a caesarian delivery. What can I do or what are the preparations should I do to achieve a normal delivery?
29th November 2012 07:05 AM #2
Hi mjdingky,
It's understandable to feel a bit apprehensive about the labour when you are pregnant but it's great that you are already starting to plan how you can help to have a natural birth.
The statistics show that you are more likely to have a normal/natural delivery if you have midwife-led care. This is because one intervention tends to lead to another and if you are under consultant-led care you are more likely to end up with a c-section. Have you considered a home birth with a midwife present there? Women who choose this type of birth are also more likely to avoid a c-section.
I had a doula for the birth of my second son (5 weeks ago!) and this is again another option for increasing your chance of a natural delivery thus reducing the chance of a c-section. We studied hypnobirthing with our doula. Being relaxed helps to make the labour shorter and the contractions more efficient, thus, reducing the chance of 'failure to progress' (to use the medical term). Anything you can do to help you relax and stay positive during the labour also has this result. For this reason it would be good to consider using a birthing pool.
Birth can, and should, be a unique, positive and life-affirming experience.
I wish you the birth of your dreams!
Best wishes,

It sounds like you might be running up against one of monowalls
limitations: accessing NAT'd services from their public IP. You can get
around this by modifying your DNS or using a static mail transport entry.
Lets say you have 22.214.171.124 NAT'd to mailserver1 at 192.168.10.1, and
22.214.171.124 NAT'd to mailserver2 at 192.168.10.2.
Now, if users on mailserver1 want to send a message to a user on
mailserver2, mailserver1 will do a DNS query to find the appropriate MX
record for mailserver2, and come back with 188.8.131.52. While this is
correct if you are coming from the outside, you cannot connect to
mailserver2 using its public ip (188.8.131.52) from the lan segment. You
need to connect to it using its LAN ip, 192.168.10.2.
So, the two solutions are:
1 - Use a DNS forwarder, which monowall has built in, so that DNS queries
from the LAN get 192.168.10.2 back as the MX record instead of 126.96.36.199
2 - Put some sort of static entry on your mailservers. For example, tell
mailserver1 that if it needs to reach mailserver2, that it needs to do so
at 192.168.10.2 and not whatever the DNS server is telling it.

Subject: [m0n0wall] Two Mail Servers with 2 Public IP's
Hi all,
I have 2 mail servers in an ADSL Link with 2 public IP adresses serving
email to 2 diferent domains.
I've configured 1 public IP in Server NAT and an SMTP rule in NAT for mail
to be delivered to the mail server of domain A. For the other public IP,
i've configured an SMTP NAT rule for mail to be delivered to the mail
server of domain B. All inbound and outbound mail delivery works, except
when a user of domain A, sends e-mail to a user of domain B, or
vice-versa, mail isn't delivered. I think this has something to do with
accessing NATed Services from the LAN segment, i'm not sure.
Is there a workaround to solve this?
I'm using m0n0 1.2b3.
Thanks in advance,
Carlos Rosário

Wayne Coyne responds to former drummer's open letter
Listen to The Flaming Lips on iHeartRadio
Wayne Coyne is addressing the scathing open letter penned last week by the Flaming Lips' former drummer Kliph Scurlock.
In an interview with Rolling Stone, the frontman calls Scurlock a "compulsive pathological liar" and gives his side of the story. The former drummer claimed Wayne fired him under false pretenses back in March when he voiced his opinion criticizing friend of the group Christina Fallin for wearing a Native American headdress.
Wayne is now apologizing for having offended anyone by using the headdress as a joke on social media, but says the incident had nothing to do with Scurlock's firing. He says he and the rest of the group had "struggled with him for years" and that his departure didn't seem "that significant" to them.
He adds that Scurlock became a "lazier and more closed-minded musician" during his time with them, pointing to his criticism of Wayne for collaborating like with pop stars like Miley Cyrus and Kesha.
Putting a bottom line of the drummer's exit, Wayne says, "If you're going to be that hateful, you can't be associated with the Flaming Lips."

Maronde tosses seven hitless innings
Angels prospect strikes out 10, lowers Cal League ERA to 2.11
By David Heck / Special to MLB.com | July 17, 2012 10:25 PM ET
Making his second start since returning from a strained lat muscle, the Angels prospect tossed seven no-hit innings and struck out 10 on Tuesday. That wasn't enough for Class A Advanced Inland Empire as the 66ers dropped a 5-2, 11-inning decision at Stockton.
"I thought it went well," Maronde said. "Guys made plays behind me. I thought Randal Grichuk made the catch of the year in center to preserve [the no-hitter]. At the end of the day, though, we want to get the win."
After walking leadoff batter Chad Oberacker in the first, Mardone retired the next 12 batters. He allowed only two more baserunners -- A.J. Kirby-Jones drew a one-out walk in the fifth and Max Stassi walked with two outs in the seventh.
Part of Mardone's success was thanks to Grichuk's spectacular catch with one out in the sixth. Stockton's Leonard Gil crushed a pitch to center field, but the 2009 first-round pick climbed the wall to make the grab.
"Just throwing strikes was the key," Maronde said. "I walked the leadoff hitter and then just came back to attack the strike zone from there. Guys were playing defense behind me, and that helped a lot, too."
The 22-year-old left-hander fanned at least one batter in every inning after the first, including two in each of his last three frames. The 10 strikeouts were two short of the career high he set against High Desert on April 27.
After Maronde exited, Eric Cendejas gave up a leadoff single to B.A. Vollmuth in the eighth. The 24-year-old right-hander set down the next six batters as the game headed to extra innings.
"I wasn't too upset about [the hit]," Maronde said. "I had ice on. Like I said, I just wanted to get the win."
C.J. Cron, the Angels' No. 2 prospect, put Inland Empire in front with a two-run shot in the 10th, but Vollmuth responded with a two-run homer in the bottom of the frame. Josh Whitaker connected on a three-run walk-off blast in the 11th to give the Ports the win.
Selected in the third round of the 2011 Draft, Maronde posted a 2.83 ERA in six starts for the 66ers before going on the DL. He missed more than two months, then returned to the California League on July 11 and gave up three hits over five scoreless frames.
"It feels great to be off the DL," Maronde said. "I feel like I can actually contribute to the team. I felt like I was dead weight for a while."
On the season, Maronde owns a 2.11 ERA with 46 strikeouts over 47 innings. He said his aim this year was to carry over his success from 2011, when he posted a 2.14 ERA in 11 starts for Rookie-level Orem. So the injury hasn't set back his goals too much.
"I wanted to pick up from where I left off last year," Maronde said. "I wanted to throw well and go out there and compete every day. So missing time stinks, but I think I can make that up in the fall by going to [the instructional league]. I'm just worried about making the playoffs now."

I frankly told Bolingbroke my disinclination to the Chevalier.
But the wilder and more excitable spirits in the party were ready to follow Bolingbroke.
Thus did Bolingbroke converse, and thus did I listen, till it was time to depart.
