Guitarist Benjamin Dara graduated from Hillcrest High School and Jordan Applied Technical Center, and attended the University of Utah for a couple of years.
But the 25-year-old performer whose full name is Benjamin Dara Mahallati said his most important musical training came as a youngster in the homes of his Persian family.
"I have always been way into music as my uncle and cousin are very talented musicians," he said. "From a young age I was mesmerized by the beautiful sounds produced and would pay close attention to various mediums of music."
On Feb. 22, Dara released his debut album "Single Frame," a collection of acoustic-driven, ethnic-folk-inspired songs that showcase his flexible voice.
What inspires you?
Most everything, when my perception shifts into an open space. The things I really resonate with are influential people speakers, musicians, writers, actors, sports athletes, scientists as well as the universe and nature in general. When you walk outside and watch the sun continuously rise each morning, it really can grab a hold of you and teach a lesson of dedication and perseverance.
What is the most musical thing in the world?
The moment. When you get lost within it, to me there is nothing else as musical. It can take form in the shape of a garbage-can lid, your hand banging on a table, pots and pans clanking together, and so forth. To be in that space of ultimate fluidity is something else. A very talented musician said to me as we were jamming, "It's as if I am observing my hands playing the instrument and I am not even here." That feeling to me is the most musical thing in the world, regardless what style, instrument or emotion is being played upon.
Does being from Utah help or hinder a music career?
Most people would probably say it hinders it. I like to think of it as a great learning opportunity to grow as a musician and a person and eventually branch out into the big world that exists outside of Utah. Personally, I love Utah. It's extremely beautiful and offers an amazing space of creativity to write from.
Describe your song writing process.
A song just happens. No real rhyme or reason. Sometimes it will take shape in the form of chords or a riff. For others, an idea formulates and I'll sketch it down on a piece of paper, and maybe lyrics will come right at that moment. Maybe not. Then at other times a melody will come first and that will be the foundation of how the song begins. My main method of writing a song is to have no method, being extremely open to the creative process.
Describe a perfect day.
A really awesome day would be heading up to the canyon with my acoustic guitar for half of the day, heading back down to jam with other musicians (playing lead on my electric), and then stare at the stars with great company (or even by myself). I'm sure there are other great things that can happen along the way.

I apologize because this morning I did not mention a few books that I should have mentioned. I was so overwhelmed by Zarathustra, Mirdad, Chuang Tzu, Lao Tzu, Jesus and Krishna that I forgot a few of the books which are even far more significant. I could not believe how I could forget Kahlil Gibran's The Prophet. It is still torturing me. I want to unburden - that's why I say I am sorry, but not to anybody in particular.
How could I forget the book which is the ultimate: The Book of the Sufis! Perhaps I forgot because it contains nothing, just empty pages. For twelve hundred years Sufis have been carrying The Book with tremendous respect, opening its pages and studying it. One wonders what they study. When you face an empty page for a long time, you are bound to rebounce upon yourself. That is the real study - the work.
How could I forget The Book? Now who will forgive me? The Book should have been the first to have been mentioned not the last. It cannot be transcended. How can you create a better book than one which contains nothing, and the message of nothingness?
Nothingness should be written in your notes, Devageet, as no-thing-ness; otherwise nothingness has a negative meaning - the meaning of emptiness, and that's not it. The meaning is fullness. Emptiness in the East has a totally different context.shunyata.
I called one of my sannyasins Shunyo, but the fool goes on calling himself Doctor Eichling. Now, can stupidity be greater? Doctor Eichling - what an ugly name! And he has shaved off his beard just to be Doctor Eichling.because with a beard he was looking a little beautiful.
In the East shunyata - emptiness - does not mean emptiness as in the English language. It is fullness, overfullness, so full that nothing is needed any more. That is the message of The Book. Please include it in the list.
First, The Book of the Sufis.
Second, The Prophet by Kahlil Gibran. I could easily drop The Prophet for the simple reason that it is only an echo of Friedrich Nietzsche's Thus Spake Zarathustra. In our world nobody speaks the truth. We are such liars, so formal, so full of etiquette.. The Prophet is only beautiful because it echoes Zarathustra.
Third, The Book of Lieh Tzu. Lao Tzu I mentioned, Chuang Tzu I mentioned; Lieh Tzu I forgot, and he is the very culmination of both Lao Tzu and Chuang Tzu. Lieh Tzu is the third generation. Lao Tzu was the master, Chuang Tzu was the disciple. Lieh Tzu was the disciple of a disciple, perhaps that is why I forgot him. But his book is immensely beautiful and has to be included in the list.

What's causing the problem with the text in this first radio button?
It looks like the kind of error you get when there's a missing end tag or quote or something, but it's validating just fine.
You didn't describe what the problem is, so this is just a guess....
ul#delCatflagul span.radioText {
display: inline-block;
margin-left: 3px;
margin-top: -1.2em; /* delete me */
matches the text beneath the second button.
It's the top line - it doesn't line up properly with the radio button. Removing the margin-top makes it different but still not right. I've attached a screenshot this time - the circled part is below the radio button instead of beside it like it should be. That's what I'm trying to fix. The other two radio buttons are fine. That's what made me think it was just a missing tag or something.
OK, I think something like this will probably do the trick. Since the name of this style sheet is "default" and it has thousands of lines, you may want to override these styles on a local style sheet.
default.css (line 1560)
ul#delCatflagul span.radioText {
display: inline-block; /* delete me, or override by changing me to {display:inline} */
margin-left: 3px;
margin-top: -1.2em; /* delete me */
vertical-align: 0.25em; /* add me */
And FYI, only the bottom button has the test aligned beside it, the text starts below the top two buttons. FF, Chrome, Opera.
Hmmm . . . yes, but all other radio buttons in the app have the text aligned to the right of the radio buttons (i.e., the inline-block). This would be the only one that wraps back under the radio button. There's got to be a reason it's not working. The others in the app DO work - with code that's basically the same. I'm not seeing what's making this one different but there's got to be something I'm missing.
Are you saying that all of the text is supposed to stretch to the right of the radio button? Nothing is supposed to wrap beneath it?
This tag is styled inline.
<div id="confirmContent" style="width: 300px;">
If you delete that width, the text stretches to the right beside the radio button.
But then again, maybe that's not what you are saying, either.
Maybe it's more like this:
If so, then:
#delCatflagul {
padding:0; /* changed from: padding:0 0 0 10px; *//* recommended, not required */
li {
line-height: 1.2em;
margin: 10px 0; /* changed from: margin:10px; *//* recommended, not required */
padding: 0; /* changed from: padding:0 0 0 2px; *//* recommended, not required */
ul#delCatflagul span.radioText {
display:block; /* changed from inline-block *//* required */
margin-left: 25px; /* changed from 3px *//* required */
margin-top: -1.3125em; /* changed from -1.2em *//* recommended tweak */
When an element is inline-block the width of the element is shrunk wrap to the content. If the element is stretched by content then it will try to be 100% wide which results in the element looking for 100% space which it won't find alongside another element so it will drop down to a new line (just as widthless floats would do).
If you want a wrapping behaviour with inline-block then you need to specifiy a width that matches the remaining line length.
Also the benefit of using inline-block is that you can automatically vertically centre the element so you don't need negative margins as the element will itself adjust automatically.
You can achieve that with just a couple of simple changes as follows:
ul#delCatflagul span.radioText {
display: inline-block;
margin-left: 3px;
[B] /* margin-top: -1.2em;*/
vertical-align: middle;
width: 90%;[/B]
Both of those achieve the result I was looking for. Thanks to each of you.
And I need to remember that if I want to use inline-block, I have to also give it a width. I think I've got it. Thanks.
You only need a width if you want the element to stay on the same line with other content.
If for example you have a menu with 20 links then there would be no need for widths because you'd want each one to shrink-wrap the content and adding widths to each one would defeat the purpose.
When an inline block element wraps it will wrap to a new line just like a word of text would. However if that word is the whole page wide then it won't stay on the same line as the first word and will wrap underneath. It's much the same behaviour for inline-block.
You need only apply widths to inline-block when it is likely that content will stretch it to the whole line width (as it would with a line of text or other fluid content) .
Thanks, Paul. This is helpful.

REDLANDS - A long line of people worked their way through the Redlands Blessing Center on Saturday.
Some very young and some very old, some were there alone. There were couples and there were entire families.
Some needed food. Others needed clothes. Many of them were looking for work, others will ill and were seeking basic medical services.
And others just needed some words of encouragement.
The Blessing Center offers it all at no charge.
"We do this because this is what Jesus did," longtime Blessing Center volunteer Erin Beringson said. "That is the basis of why we are here, to feed the hungry, clothe the naked, help the homeless. This is what we do."
The nonprofit Redlands Blessing Center offers food boxes from Joseph's Storehouse, basic medical and dental services through its New Hope Free Clinic and has a Resource Center that offers job and career advice.
The Blessing Center's database has the names of 5,000 families and 100 new families are being added every week. Thirty new families arrived at the Blessing Center on Saturday.
The Blessing Center's dental office opened in November and has since dealt with 25-30 patients every Thursday. There are 600 names on the dental waiting list.
The volunteers make it all happen, many of them have survived rough times themselves.
"The volunteers here are just one disaster from being in that line," Beringson said. "Just one thing, an illness, whatever. We are all in precarious positions."
Robert Flick is a volunteer and helps run the resource center. He has been with the Blessing Center for four years. Prior to that he was a plumbing service supervisor and his wife was that company's office manager. They were both laid off.
"All of a sudden it all went away," Flick said of losing his job. "My wife brought me here. When I stepped out of the car I knew I was on holy ground instantly."
One of the most visible people at the Blessing Center is Pastor Craig Turley. People seek him out for help of all kinds. On Saturday he sat down with a number of individuals who needed nothing more than to hear some inspirational words.
"I pray a lot, that is all you can do," Turley said. "I am personally invigorated by being around people that have need. I believe the grace of God, like water, flows to the lowest points. When people are at the lowest point of their life, that is when they need the most. Those that need the most should get the most. They are the most special because of that."
Turley said help is given to anyone who walks through the doors. He provided the example of a longtime Redlands Blessing Center visitor, a homeless woman named Carmen. Carmen is 90 years old and doesn't speak much English, she sleeps in a camper shell about a mile away. Carmen has been to the Redlands Blessing Center every week for 14 years.
"I've told people before," Turley said. "If this whole thing was built for Carmen, does God love her enough to build a whole food bank for her? Yes, God loves her that much."
Turley added, "That is why we do this. We do this for the Carmens."

Human Development Counseling
Academic Year: 2009 – 2010
The Human Development Counseling Program offers three areas of study: community counseling, marriage and family therapy, and school counseling. These areas of study allow graduates to provide counseling and consulting services at a professional level in a wide variety of environments. Career options for graduates in the community counseling/marriage and family areas include counseling in mental health, correctional, social welfare, rehabilitative, and human relations agencies, institutions, and environments. Study in school counseling leads to elementary and secondary school counselor certification that has Illinois State Board of Education approval. Since opportunities for employment within each of these areas of study vary widely, prospective students should consult an advisor before choosing a career option.
The Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP) has accredited the following emphases in this program: community counseling and school counseling. Successful completion of the curriculum for either of these leads to eligibility for national certification.
Students who are pursuing or have completed the M.A. degree may develop an individualized course of study that may qualify them for membership in the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT) and/or licensure as a marriage and family therapist. This opportunity involves additional preparation beyond the M.A. degree.
Entrance requirements
Admission prerequisites include courses in abnormal, developmental, and social psychology/sociology and a grade-point average of at least 3.00 in the last 60 hours of undergraduate course work. Courses taken at the University of Illinois at Springfield or elsewhere to fulfill these prerequisites may not be applied toward the graduate degree. All prerequisites must be completed before submitting an application to the program.
Personal references, a supervised written essay, and an interview are required for admission to the program. Graduate Record Exam scores are recommended. HDC faculty may require students to take additional personality or vocational measures.
In addition to completing the UIS application process, interested applicants should contact the HDC Program office for program applications. Necessary transcripts should be sent to the Office of Admissions, along with a request that they be forwarded to HDC. To ensure consideration for admission to degree status, all completed application materials should be postmarked by October 15 or March 15.
Full acceptance to the HDC Program is based on evaluation of admission requirements. Students who are not fully admitted may register as special students for a maximum of three HDC courses. Participation in these courses, however, in no way guarantees eventual acceptance into the program or acceptance of these hours toward the graduate degree.
Admission and evaluation process
Admission is based on academic competence, interest, and/or prior experience in the helping professions, as well as evidence of personal characteristics and dispositions associated with success in counseling relationships.
The HDC faculty has a professional and ethical responsibility to engage in continual student evaluation and appraisal and to be aware of a student's personal limitations that might impede future performance. (See program policy on student evaluation process.) Any student who does not meet the professional standards or requirements of the HDC Program may be removed from candidate/degree status in the program according to specified procedures with rights of appeal. (See program policy on removal from candidate/degree status.)
The advising relationship within the program is important, and students should contact their advisors regularly. If students do not choose a faculty advisor, an initial advisor will be assigned by the program.
Grading policy
HDC majors must obtain grades of B or better in HDC 501, HDC 511, HDC 512, and HDC 513 and must maintain a GPA of at least 3.00. In other courses, a maximum of six hours of C grades is allowed when balanced by an equal number of hours of A.
In 400-level courses, graduate students are expected to meet a higher standard of performance than undergraduates and will be required to complete additional assignments at the discretion of the instructor.
Expected professional competencies
Before graduating, degree candidates must demonstrate competencies and dispositions related to personal development, such as the ability to communicate effectively with others; professional development, such as the ability to conceptualize client concerns and to provide appropriate intervention through an individual or group relationship; and social development, such as the ability to participate as a team member.
In addition to these generic competencies, students are expected to develop specific knowledge and skills needed for the client populations with which, or for the settings in which, they intend to work. Such specialized knowledge may be obtained through projects designed to meet course requirements.
Each program course may contain an applied or experiential component in addition to the didactic component, and some courses specifically emphasize experiential learning. These courses require application of professional skills in simulated and/or real settings. Students should, therefore, expect to demonstrate understanding of ethical behavior in the helping professions as well as evidence of interaction skills with clients. All master's candidates must be familiar with the HDC Program's policy on clinical experience and should consult their advisors about satisfying its provisions. All degree candidates must demonstrate graduate-level performance in reading, writing, and speaking English.
Major requirements
A total of 50 semester hours is required for a master's degree in Human Development Counseling:
HDC 501 Fundamental Issues and Ethics in Counseling
(must be taken first semester) 3 Hrs.
HDC 511 Theories of Counseling 3 Hrs.
HDC 512 Prepracticum 3 Hrs.
HDC 513 Techniques of Group Counseling and Psychotherapy 3 Hrs.
HDC 515 Multicultural Counseling 3 Hrs.
HDC 521 Developmental Counseling 3 Hrs.
HDC 524 Career/Lifestyle Counseling 3 Hrs.
HDC 525 Alcoholism and Substance Abuse 3 Hrs.
HDC 534 Introduction to Family Therapy 3 Hrs.
HDC 546 Psychopathology and the DSM-IV-TR 3 Hrs.
HDC 530 Community Counseling (community counseling area)
HDC 531 Developmental School Counseling (school counseling area)
HDC 558 Theories of Family Therapy (family therapy area) 3 Hrs.
HDC 575 Appraisal Techniques in Counseling 3 Hrs.
HDC 577 Research Methods 3 Hrs.
HDC 582 Research Colloquium: Master's Project 2 Hrs.
HDC 584 Comprehensive Examination Preparation 1 Hr.
HDC 585 Comprehensive Examination Registration 1 Hr.
HDC 587 Professional Experience: Practicum 3 Hrs.
HDC 590 Professional Experience: Internship 2-6 Hrs.
All course work should emphasize specialized knowledge and skills needed for a particular setting or client population.
Master's closure
In addition to course requirements, students are required to either complete a master's project or thesis demonstrating research mastery of an area within Human Development Counseling or to pass a comprehensive examination that tests knowledge from the program's required course work. Students must select which option they will use to meet the closure requirement when they register for either HDC 582 Research Colloquium: Master's Project or HDC 584 Comprehensive Examination Preparation. For students selecting the master's project option, completion occurs when they pass HDC 582, and the project has been completed, approved by the student's committee, and approved by the chair of the program. For students selecting the comprehensive examination process option, completion of the closure requirement is satisfied once a student completes HDC 584 Comprehensive Examination Preparation, registers for the comprehensive exam (HDC 585), and passes the examination. Students must consult their advisors for further information on the master's closure requirement options and to obtain the advisor's signature on the closure option form.
Once students register for either HDC 582 Research Colloquium: Master's Project or HDC 585 Comprehensive Exam Registration, they must be continually enrolled each fall and spring semester. Students who take HDC 582 but do not finish the master's project/thesis that semester must either re-enroll in HDC 582 or enroll in HDC 583 Master's Project Continuing Enrollment (zero credit hours, one billable hour). Students who take HDC 585 Comprehensive Exam Registration and do not pass the exam while enrolled must register for HDC 586 Comprehensive Exam Continuing Enrollment (zero credit hours, one billable hour) each fall and spring until the exam is passed.
Students pursuing careers in community counseling or marriage and family therapy should begin to explore relevant populations and settings when enrolled in HDC 501. Course assignments thereafter should be designed to develop knowledge and skills specific to the emphasis chosen. In order to develop and demonstrate skills unique to their selected areas of study, community counseling students must take HDC 530 Community Counseling and marriage and family therapy students must take HDC 558 Theories of Family Therapy. Clinical experience placements for community and marriage and family therapy students will take place in approved community agencies.
Students seeking certification by the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT) and licensure as marriage and family therapists must take approximately 12 credit hours beyond the 50 required within the HDC master's program (one additional family therapy course, two additional family studies courses, and HDC 545 Sexual Dysfunction and Family Violence.) Consultation with the MFT area coordinator is required to ensure curricular and clinical experience requirements are met.
The HDC Program is the only method by which a student may become a certified school counselor through UIS. Certification in Illinois for UIS students is based on endorsement by the HDC Program.
A possible route toward School Counseling Type 73 Certification is available for students without teaching credentials (Type 3 Elementary Certification or Type 9 Secondary Certification). This route involves taking the following four courses (or equivalent courses) to fulfill required educational experiences:
TEP 201 Introduction to Education 3 Hrs.
TEP 222 Child Development for Teachers
or TEP 223 Adolescent Development for Teachers 3 Hrs.
EDL 575 Legal Aspects of Special Education 2 Hrs.
TEP 322 Teaching, Learning, and Assessment (for elementary)
or TEP 314 Curriculum and Instruction Methods (for secondary) 3 Hrs.
In addition to the HDC core courses, an applicant seeking school counselor certification (IL Type 73) must complete a course in mental hygiene and/or personality dynamics (this can be met by the abnormal psychology prerequisite), a practicum in a school setting, a 600-hour internship (400 of which must be in a school setting with both elementary and secondary students), and HDC 531 Developmental School Counseling. Students must also pass tests of basic skills and guidance administered through the Illinois Certification System. Students who wish to pursue this course of study should contact the school counseling area coordinator immediately upon application to the program.

I use these for the crafts I sell. I take a business card, fold it like a book, burnish crease with bone folder, hole punch the corner and add fastener. It helps prevent theft and adds a professional look. It's the only way to label something that is fabric for sale. I don't know any other company that sells these.

This breadmaker earned The Best rating from the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute because it baked golden-brown, flavorful artisanal bread and was the easiest to use. The Best model baked white, wheat, and cinnamon raisin loaves with moist, airy interiors and crisp crusts, unlike other units that produced dry loaves with barely browned exteriors. The Best Breadmaker automatically incorporates dried fruit, nuts, or herbs at the proper time, unlike other models that require the user to manually add additional ingredients. Scoring highest for features, The Best model has a backlit LCD control panel that allows users to quickly select a light, medium, or dark brown crust, the size of the loaf (1 to 2 1/2-lbs.), and the type of bread. The Best model automatically kneads the dough, allows it to rise, "punches" it down, and bakes it to the preferred settings. The Best Breadmaker also makes jelly and has a non stick baking pan for easy clean up. 13" H x 15 1/2" W x 9 3/4" D. (16 1/2 lbs.)

A must have for home bakers!
By Andiamo
from Clarks Summit, PA
I researched long and hard before making this purchase. I had a bread machine years ago but wanted a new one that was attractive enough to display on the counter for times when I will be using it often as well as a machine that is high quality and easy to use. This is the perfect combination!!!Since receiving it a couple weeks ago I have used it several times, each time to the delight of my family! The machine is easy to use and the recipes are simple to follow. My only complaint is that there is not a recipe for basic white raisin bread....only honey wheat raisin bread....which is fabulous!!Other than that, the machine is a dream and I am very pleased. It was offered on other sites but Hammacher Schlemmer's return policy can't be beat!!!

Flutist to perform first faculty concert at university
Assistant professor of flute Jennifer Parker-Harley will perform her first faculty recital, "The Myth of Pan in Music and Poetry," at 3 p.m. Feb. 8, in the recital hall of University of South Carolina School of Music. It is free and open to the public.
The program features music that centers around Pan, the Greek god of shepherds and flocks. The first part of the program features "Syrinx" by Claude Debussy and "Psyche" by Gabriel Mourey. There are also works by Pierre Louys and Jules Mouquet. Faculty members Lynn Kompass, piano, and Constance Gee, Viola, also will perform.
"In selecting works for this program, I was initially inspired by the seminal work for solo flute by Claude Debussy, 'Syrinx,' " said Parker-Harley. "It set the tone for many more of the solo flute works written in the 20th century."
Two theater students, Sydney Mitchell and Gabrielle Peterson, will perform the scene from French author Mourey's play, "Psyche," for which, scholars have determined, the piece was written.
The second half of the recital offers more modern depictions of Pan, and focuses on other aspects of his character. The program will close with "Pan's Dream," by John Kimora Parker.
A member of the Columbus (Ohio) Symphony Orchestra for eight years before joining the university faculty last fall, Parker-Harley also has performed with symphony orchestras throughout central Ohio and the Midwest, including the Cincinnati Symphony and the St. Louis Symphony.
For more information on faculty recitals or the School of Music, call 803-777-4280.

GSA's City Pairs Airline Contracts To Save Nearly $3B in 2002
July 11, 2001
Contact: Deborah K. Ruiz, (202) 501-1231
WASHINGTON, DC - In a move expected to save the federal government billions of dollars in the next year, the U.S. General Services Administration today announced the winners of its City Pairs airline contracts which will provide heavily discounted airfares for over 4,900 routes.
GSA recently negotiated rates with 14 U.S. airlines for official government travelers on 4,269 domestic and 686 international routes. In addition, the City Pairs contracts will continue to make hassle-free tickets available to federal travelers at over 70% less than unrestricted coach fares offered to the general public.
Each year, GSA's Federal Supply Service awards contracts for air transportation for official government travel under the City Pairs program. The contracts are competitively awarded, based on the best overall value to the government. Average flight time, offered price, and the type, distribution, and number of flights are all considered in determining the best value.
This year ushers in a dual fare test (capacity controlled and unrestricted) in 337 markets. Capacity controlled fares will be available on a first-come, first-served basis that will allow government travelers to save additional dollars when they book tickets early. However, unrestricted contract fares will continue to be available to the government in these 337 markets.
GSA's City Pairs give customers several other advantages over commercial fares:
No advance purchase is required.
No minimum or maximum length of stay is required.
The tickets are fully refundable. There is no charge for cancellations or for schedule changes.
The seats are not capacity-controlled. As long as there is a coach class seat available on the plane, it can be purchased at the contracted fare.
There are no blackout periods.
The unrestricted fare price will not change throughout the length of the contract, enabling agencies to better plan their travel budgets.
The contract awards and prices are effective October 1, 2001, through September 30, 2002.
Under the City Pairs contract rates, a non-stop, one-way ticket to Ronald Reagan Washington National airport from New York LaGuardia will cost $37; from Boston, $66; and from Los Angeles, $140. Discounts are generally greater in larger markets.
In the evaluation criteria this year, considerable weight was again given to customers' strong preference for non-stop service. Non-stop service was awarded in 1,689 markets - 91 more markets with non-stop service than were awarded last year.
Awards were made to the following airlines:
Carrier City Pairs Estimated $ Value
Delta Airlines 894 $274,770,787
United Airlines 1,104 $274,640,918
American Airlines 883 $201,963,874
US Airways 673 $177,025,892
Northwest Airlines 358 $ 79,624,151
Continental Airlines 133 $ 37,006,734
Southwest Airlines 282 $ 29,675,262
America West Airlines 240 $ 28,685,446
Alaska Airlines 92 $ 24,084,274
TransWorld Airlines LLC 92 $ 10,126,227
Midwest Express 49 $ 9,880,948
Midway Airlines 117 $ 9,216,679
AirTran Airways 24 $ 4,295,970
American Trans Air 14 $ 1,930,705
GSA is a centralized federal procurement and property agency responsible for providing office space, supplies and services for the federal government. GSA operates and manages 1,800 government-owned buildings and 6,500 leased buildings while playing a key role in procuring and managing the government's massive inventory of computer and telecommunications equipment and services.
Since its creation in 1949, the agency has evolved from a mandatory supplier of space and products for federal civilian agencies to a non-mandatory provider of competitively-priced, high-quality office space, commercial products and military and civilian workforce solutions.

Tried posting it on sherdog, but it automatically killed the link. What you done to upset them? Covered shows which aren't televised, or something equally reprehensible?
'Go read a fucking book, you piece of shit.'
Nah we posted some links like we do on here on their boards and beat them to the punch. Seemed to piss them off lol. The one that sent them over the edge was when we reported that Diaz was smoking weed. We were first on it so they accused us of reporting shit and making stories up, two days later what was all over the news!! One of the admins had a bit of a hard on for us lol.

Breastfeeding photos removed by facebook - What do you think?
In the news last week there was a report on photos mums had posted of themselves breastfeeding their babies being taken down by facebook. Apparently the pictures violate the nudity regulations for posting photos on this social media site.
What's your opinion on this? Do you think mums should be able to post any breastfeeding photos on facebook (and similar sites) or is there a case for some regulations about nudity (e.g. not having the other breast showing in the photo)?

You show yours and I'll keep mine covered!
Dear ljmarsden
It is my understanding that Facebook has done an about face on this, probably partly as a result of the Boobout Protest which took place outside Facebook's Sydney offices, and the subsequent protest letters - Media Report Here and Pictures Here! Needless to say, there are now more breastfeeding profile shots than ever, as women take up the cause. I love the Tara Moss article Geeks, Not all Breast Exposure is Naughty published in the National Times on 9 February.
Do I think a woman should be able to post a photo of herself breastfeeding on Facebook? Absolutely. This is a free country and ultimately it seems unreasonable to say that women should be allowed to feed in public but not take or post photos of same. Similarly, I think if you start saying you can show this photo, but not that one, you start walking the dangerous line of censorship. At the end of the day, no one is holding a gun to your head and making you look at the Facebook photo. If you don't like what you see, move on.
That said, would I do it myself? No. It's a personal thing. I don't really have a desire to have my breasts on display, whether in public or on Facebook. I do breastfeed in public without hesitation, but while wearing a top that keeps my breasts largely covered. Perhaps it makes me a bad feminist, but whether it was to breastfeed, or to don a pair of tassles and find a pole, I don't want to show my breasts to the general public! So far as Facebook goes, with my old friends from school and my elderly family members viewing my posts, I would just as soon not have my boobs on display there either.

Thanks for the media update on this Mumof2IVFmiracles and your personal comments. I think a lot of breastfeeding mums would resonant with the feelings you've expressed above.
This debate has made me think more about breastfeeding in the public eye. I would love to see more breastfeeding photos in the media. I think it's great when celebrities do breastfeeding photoshoots. That said, I too wouldn't personally feel comfortable of posting some of my breastfeeding photos on facebook because of the different states of nudity they show! When I was first breastfeeding I got my husband to take photos of me breastfeeding so I could use them to learn from (e.g. trying to copy the positions which felt more comfortable) - now those are certainly for our eyes only!

Breastfeeding Photos
I whole-heartedly agree, ljmarsden, and love it when celebs offer breatfeeding shots to the media. I have seen some gorgeous, tasteful photos over the years and have many beautiful photos of me breastfeeding each of my two girls. It is for that reason that I would not support a ban on breastfeeding photos. I do firmly believe that part of promoting breastfeeding is being willing to be seen doing it yourself and inclusion in any available platform of photos that promote breatsfeeding.
That said, I took a look at the photo in the article you offered in your first link. The woman who posted it (and then had her Facebook account suspended till she took it down) claimed she put it up as her profile pic to "educate mothers on nursing." I am not too sure that a picture of a woman with her top around her waist, sitting on what appears to be the grotty kitchen floor, feeding a nappy-less baby from one breast, and pumping from the other, is necessarily an image that is going to educate the public, at least not in a good way. It has a certain 'yick' factor and smacks more of flouting authority than inspiring confidence.
In this whole debate, no one seems to be considering the children's privacy. Part of the reason I choose to feed in feeding rooms when they are available is so my child can also have privacy while feeding. I consider my daughter has a very firm and close attachment to my breasts as not just a source of food but also comfort. Breastfeeding is an intimate relationship. It may seem weird but I don't feel my daughter, and breasts she considers to be hers I'm sure, should be put on display either, especially virtually, given the freedom of access that exists. I wouldn't full-on snog someone in public or post a photo of same as my Facebook pic for the same reasons! It's about intimacy.
I have so many lovely memories of sitting in well appointed feeding rooms, relaxing while feeding my girls when tiny (and needing lots of feeds), and I am not ashamed to admit I prefer to feed that way when out. It seems these days you can't win. If you feed in public you get shunned by the locals. If you choose a private place in a public venue you are 'deserting your sistas!' Blimey. Why does the basic nuturing of a child have to be so political!
If you want to use your Facebook profile as a platform to promote breastfeeding, and you feel comfortable doing so, more power to you. You have my vote. As a person with extensive experience in marketing, may I be so bold as to suggest that when selecting which photo to post, you consider the audience you are targetting - woman who do not feel confident about breastfeeding and/or those who are not comfortable doing so in public - then choose a photo which you feel will inspire their confidence.

Thank you for your comments Mumof2IVFmiracles.
You have considered an aspect of this debate I have not thought of yet (I'm ashamed to admit): the feelings and privacy of the babies and children being fed.
My son in fact enjoys to breastfeed without any cover or clothing over his head and, for the majority of the time, this is what we do. However, there is the odd occasion when we are in a large group of people when it is me that feels the need to cover up whilst feeding him. He tends to protest and pull the feeding cover off his head and we settle for a partial head covering. But now you have made me wonder (conversely to the facebook debate) if I should fully respect the way he likes feeding best and not use any cover in such large groups. I do like to follow his lead in as many aspects of parenting as possible.

To cover or not to cover
Hi ljmarsden
I saw a comical photo the other day which for the life of me I can't locate. It was two photos, one of a woman attempting to eat with a feeding cover over her own head and the other of a baby being fed under one. The caption read something to the effect 'If you don't like eating like this, what makes you think your baby will?' A tad brutal I admit but it did make me think.
I have never used a feeding cover because I suffer from claustrophobia, brought on by a reoccurring event in early childhood which involved clothing being held over my face. Somehow for me, covering my baby's head, and creating that hot, clammy environment, is too much like those horrifying experiences from childhood.
I create the compromise by wearing clothing which allows me to feed with my breasts still covered and using a feeding room wherever possible. I have often been criticised for the later. It's ironic really. I hate eating in noisy, crowded food halls where you have to yell to be heard and your ears are still ringing ten minutes later. I don't particularly like balancing my lunch on my lap in a shopping mall concourse either. I am not sure why it is that people think a baby would want to breastfeed in those environments.
I think you are absolutely right. It is important to respect your baby's feeding preferences. For me, if I don't feel confident feeding in the environment, I remove myself rather than covering my baby.

Case Western Reserve University has received much of its financial support through bequests over the years. Bequests are gifts made upon a donor's death, most often through a will.
Your bequest can be given as a specific sum of money; a percentage of your estate; a gift of particular assets, such as shares of stock in a corporation; or a gift of the remainder of your estate after distribution to loved ones. They can also be carried out through other vehicles that become effective at the time of your death: a trust, a life insurance policy, an IRA, or a deferred compensation or 401(k) plan. The manner in which the university is to use your gift can be as specific or as broad as you wish.
It is easy to include the university in your estate plan by adding a simple codicil to an existing will or by including language in a will you are currently having drafted. Or, in some cases, you can fill out a simple beneficiary designation form. +See sample bequest language
If you have included Case Western Reserve University in your estate plans, we hope you will inform us. We want to be able to recognize you for your generous intent and also make sure the gift will be appropriately stewarded.
To start a conversation about leaving your legacy through a bequest to Case Western Reserve, please contact the Office of Planned Giving at 1-877-477-1143.

Eric Church superstitiously growing a beard while working on album
Listen to Eric Church on iHeartRadio
Eric Church is extending "no-shave November" .. into the summer! He says his beard is directly tied to his studio work, and tells the "Green Bay Press Gazette" he's in the process of writing material for his next album.
He says he grew a beard while working on songs for his last album, Chief, which took his career to a new level, and because he's "superstitious" he's "had a beard growing the entire writing process" this time around as well. The singer admits he's not sure just when he'll be finished with the songs, but promises "when there's no beard, the record is written."
Church adds that he might be rocking the beard for a while,as he's still figuring out what to do next. He adds that he doubts his follow up to 2011's Chief will be released this year.

Rookie NFL wide receivers roundly living up to the massive hype so far
(Yahoo!) We spent much of the spring, in the run-up to the NFL draft, discussing just how good this crop of rookie wide receivers could be. That talk continues, and if the early returns are any indication, it might be a truly special group.
Sammy Watkins has been making circus catches on a routine basis in Buffalo Bills camp.Brandin Cooks looks like the real deal in the New Orleans Saints' high-voltage offense.Kelvin Benjamin has stepped up as the No. 1 receiver Cam Newton needs. All three were first-round picks, and none have done much to disappoint yet.
Watkins might not have done much in two preseason games so far, but he certainly has looked — and sounded — terrific in practice so far.
Cooks, meanwhile, has started cranking it up and has some people talking him up as an Offensive Rookie of the Year candidate and the man most likely to help replace Darren Sproles. Check out the move Cooks put on St. Louis Rams rookie corner E.J. Gaines on a 25-yard catch, run and score.
Cooks also has been making plays like this on a regular basis in Saints practice.
COOKS! 🙌 #SaintsCamp https://t.co/FGaevojjZD

And with a bit more than 24 hours to recover – the Thursday game starts at 9:30 p.m. Montreal time – the Canadiens weill have to figure out how to play a 60-minute hockey game or they will go 0-for-Alberta.
And they may have to rebound without Josh Gorges. The veteran defenceman played one shift in the third period at the Saddledome. Gorges has some kind of knack, which means we could see Nathan Beaulieu on the CH blueline in Edmonton.
With all due respect to the 2011 first-round draft choice (Beaulieu was picked 17th overall), this is not a good situation. He would joining a defence corps that took its lumps in Calgary.
Andrei Markov played 27:23 against the Flames. How much will he have left one night later in Edmonton?
Raphael Diaz played almost 20 minutes and did not take a single shot toward Flames' goaltender Joey MacDonald. If Diaz isn't shooting, what the heck does he bring to the Canadiens' lineup? Rugged physicality?
Aged Francis Bouillon had to play 21:34. Hey, we love Frankie and he's a gamer. But against young, fast and aggressive forwards, such as the ones we saw in Calgary and more of the same in Edmonton, Bouillon just can't keep up.
Jarred Tinordi looked bad on the second Calgary goal. But he's a rookie, and there should have been more effective communication with Gorges on the play.
That leaves the reigning Norris Trophy winner, who spent the end of the game in the penalty box watching his teammates desperately scramble for a tying goal.
P.K. Subban is carrying the team from the back end. He's capable, but I thought Subban was trying too hard against Calgary.
At least P.K. showed up for the game. That's more than can be said for Rene Bourque. After two solid, hard-working efforts against the Leafs and Flyers, Bourque disappeared against his old team … and his MIA performance reduced the effectiveness of linemates Tomas Plekanec and Brian Gionta.
Michel Therrien dropped Bourque to the fourth line for a shift or two in the third period. The coach also flipped Brendan Gallagher and Daniel Brière in an effort to get the Lars Eller and David Desharnais lines going.
DD went 7-1 on faceoffs and about 1-77 in puck battles. He had more even-strength ice time than either Plekanec or Eller.
The ever-improving Great Dane was 8-4 on draws. And Eller continued his streak of scoring in every game the Canadiens have played this season. He's on pace for 109 goals.
Alex Galchenyuk had five shots on goal – some from ridiculous angles. Max Pacioretty had four.
But until the late-game flurry, MacDonald was rarely troubled by white jerseys blocking his sight lines or crashing his crease. Wee Gallagher seems to be the only Canadiens forward who rushes in where too many of his teammates fear to tread. The physicality Bourque brought against Toronto and Philly was missed in Calgary. There are nights when you wish the Canadiens still had Erik Cole.
Ryan White had ZERO hits in the game … unless you want to count the check he laid on Travis Moen to create the turnover that led to Calgary's first goal.
Brandon Prust played 10 largely ineffective minutes. I suspect Prust is hurt, because we're not seeing the player who was a revelation last season.
It's early, but we aren't seeing the team that won its division and finished second in the Eastern Conference last season.
On L'Antichambre, Guy Carbonneau suggested the Canadiens were able to surprise teams during the truncated 2013 season. That isn't happening this fall, and the Canadiens have been back on their heels early in the games against Toronto and Calgary.
Carey Price had no chance on the first two Flames' goals, both of which were tap-ins to open sides of the net. He might have done better on Curtis Glencross's power-play tip from close in.
Will Peter Budaj get the call to salvage some Alberta points on Thursday night?

WATCH: Black Simon and Garfunkel's cover of Lorde's 'Royals'
Questlove and "Captain" Kirk Douglas were back as 'Black Simon and Garfunkel' Wednesday night and their performance of Lorde's Royals could well be the very best cover version yet.
The Roots' musicians regularly appeared as their folk alter egos on Jimmy Fallon's Late Night and thankfully they've carried forward their act to the comedian's new gig on the Tonight Show.
Black Simon and Garfunkel have previously harnessed their talent to perform cover versions of Pitbull and Ke$ha's Timber, Macklemore and Ryan Lewis' Thrift Shop and Katy Perry's Roar.

CDEP enables members of Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander communities to exchange unemployment benefits for opportunities to undertake work and training in activities which are managed by a local Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander community organisations. Participation in the scheme is considered as engagement in paid employment and participants are classified as employed.
The standard Census form was not designed to collect information about CDEP participation. Therefore the Census data on CDEP only reflects information collected on Interviewer Household Forms (IHF) which were used in discrete Indigenous communities. IHF's were used in remote communities and some non-remote communities.
There were approximately 14,200 Indigenous CDEP participants identified in the 2006 Census. Of these, the majority were in Very Remote areas (76%) and a further 14% were in remote areas.

ANCHORAGE, Alaska – In the AT&T Hoops Classic Championship game, the Saint Leo women's basketball team (10-1) fell to the Alaska-Anchorage Seawolves (9-1) by an 88-68 score, Saturday night from the Wells Fargo Sports Complex. The loss ended the Lions' perfect 10-0 start to the 2013-14 season.
Both teams came out ready to play, with Alaska-Anchorage taking a lead right out of the gate. The tough defensive first half would lead the Lions trailing 40-35 heading into halftime. The deficit marked just the second time this season that Saint Leo did not lead heading into the second period.
After halftime, the Seawolves launched an offensive attack that the Lions were unable to answer. Outscoring Saint Leo 44-33 in the second half alone, Alaska-Anchorage took home a hard-fought victory.
As a team, the Lions shot 22-69 (32 percent) from the field in the effort, going 22-25 (88 percent) from the free-throw line.
Despite the loss, the Lions pulled down 48 rebounds in the contest. In addition, the squad tallied 9 steals, 16 assists, and six blocks.
Senior Teresa Manigrasso led the Lions in scoring with 20 points. In typical fashion, senior Chelsea Williams followed her lead with 16 points on the night. Both earned a spot on the AT&T Hoops Classic All-Tournament team.
Defensively, Williams also led the team in rebounds with nine.
The Lions will return to action on Saturday, January 4 when they host Florida Tech in the second Sunshine State Conference matchup of the year. Tipoff is set for 2:00 p.m. in the Marion Bowman Center.

Interesting comment regarding the BBofC and their status in the governing of boxing in the UK. There are so many terms for boxing that falls outside the jurisdiction of the BBBofC, which have been covered above, but the board are a self governing, self appointed organization that has set up as a for profit making business and is not government appointed, We can't speak for many of the other boxing organizations operating on the British boxing scene, but the Queensbury Boxing League is in its own right an official governing body for the contests that take place under the Queensbury competitive banner, and as we have always pointed out we don't promote professional boxing, we promote Queensbury boxing. If you have not already seen the league on Eurosport last season, hopefully you can catch the new 2013 season starting at the end of next monthQuote:
thats just unlicensed boxing mate , there is no such thing as semi pro ... it sounds cool , kind of like you are not a full time boxer but at the level of a pro but you have a job.lol
The only licensing authority recognised in the UK is the British Boxing Board of Control , they issue the pro license, you not licensed with them , then you are unlicensed.

The National League of Cities recently named Cerritos Councilwoman Carol K. Chen as one of the finalists for the organization's Women in Municipal Government Leadership Award.
The award recognizes female municipal officials for unique and outstanding leadership in local government. About 3,000 municipal elected officials will be attending this year's conference.
Chen was also a finalist for the award in 2011.
"I am very honored to be selected for the recognition from a national organization dedicated to municipal government," Chen said. "To be chosen as a finalist in two consecutive years is truly special. I am thrilled to be one of the five women elected officials represented in the nation."
Chen was nominated for the award by Cerritos Mayor Jim Edwards, who noted in his nomination letter her "extensive" municipal accomplishments and "her efforts to encourage women to become active in civic leadership."
Each year, the award is given for individual achievement in initiating creative and successful programs in municipal government that help citizens, particularly if the leadership serves as a specific mentoring model for future female leaders.
The winner will be announced and honored along with the other finalists at today's session of the National League of Cities Congress of Cities.

Glenn Keyes, AIA, is a preservation architect based in Charleston, S.C., who has consulted with communities affected by hurricanes, including Hugo in 1989 and Katrina in 2005. He is a former staff architect for the South Carolina Department of Archives and History and a current adviser to the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Since 1986, he has restored more than 150 churches, commercial buildings, museums, and houses in Charleston.
Charleston underwent a major change in its approach to preservation after Hurricane Hugo in 1989. The requirements for buildings, reflected in the codes, reinterpreted preservation in the way we treat windows, roofing, and seismic retrofits. Codes required us to tie down roof structures when possible in historic rehabilitations and to protect window openings. The earthquake of 1886 was also a pivotal moment—and the subsequent reconstruction gave us a lot of the buildings we seek to protect today—but we're still on a fault line and continue to have tremors. So, with our historic buildings, we do what we can.
Take the Charleston County Courthouse, completed in 1792, which had been gutted seven times in its history. After Hugo, the county asked us to seismically retrofit the building as part of a major restoration. Of course, by that time the interior was not considered historic—having been gutted so many times—so we gave it a concrete-and-steel-framed structure (recessed into the 32-inch-thick masonry walls) to comply with the county's request. We then reconstructed a period interior based on research and the investigation of the existing physical conditions.
There is always a desire to put things back to the way they were as quickly as possible after a disaster, and I think that's done to the detriment of buildings sometimes. Scrambling to replace a roof quickly isn't always the best idea until you've had a chance to assess the situation. The roofs needed to be dried in quickly, but people often hired the first roofer that knocked on the door. Since that time, we have replaced many expensive slate and metal roofs that were installed improperly after Hugo hit. So a measured approach is always best in a disaster recovery situation. Charleston's Board of Architecture Review was great about material requirements after the hurricane. It was tempting for the city to say, "OK, you can put on an asphalt shingle roof." Instead, it said, "If you had a slate roof, you have to put a slate roof back on," thus protecting the historic integrity of the city's architecture.
There is a future for architects trained in preservation. There has been so much research on historic materials and methods done on so many successful preservation projects completed over the last 30 years. As architects, it's a great time to be involved in a growing field. —As told to William Richards

Nobody knows?
So, I figured out a method to fix this problem, supposedly...
I went through ndiswrapper, downloaded the USB's XP driver.
From Root, I ran:
ndiswrapper -i rt2870.inf
ndiswrapper -m
^Worked like a charm, but when I got to "ifconfig wlan0 up", all I get is a static cursor, and a blank field.
Any suggestions?

Our second-place winner is Ashtyn Carrigan. Here is an excerpt:
If I could see the gift that entered into the world in just a deep gaze, then how much greater would it be seeing the baby? I looked over to see the baby girl again and was simply overwhelmed. Knowing this child is a sweet reminder of the Father and His daily grace.

Congratulations Ashtyn and Lindsey! We are proud of you!

wow. tks so much
Just a FYI, if you need to get VMWare Tools working on BT4 pre-final, you'll need to compile the source, go to /usr/src/linux-source-188.8.131.52 and type "make", this will compile the source for you, when vmware asks what directory the source headers are at, point it to:
Good luck!
thanks relik! I needed these instructions for another issue I was running into = no linux-source headers existing when building rt2x00 from source.

Christopher Kane Spring 2013
Christopher Kane's brilliantly insightful Scottish high school art teacher, Jane Broughan, said it best about her star pupil's wickedly original eye when she was interviewed by Vogue for the September 2012 issue: "Some things don't 'come from' anywhere, do they? They're just great because they are." Kane, facing a barrage of hysterically curious questioning about his out-of-the-blue usage of crinkly plastic frills, floppy trellises of latex bows, plastic bolts, and images of Boris Karloff as Frankenstein, took that line, too. With cheerfully disarming honesty, he answered the roiling crowd, "I don't really know why or how it came together. It was by chance. It's a miracle!"
The point, of course, is that the genius is in the illogical impulses that drive creativity—and whether the results communicate the kind of electrical impulse in a woman's brain that tells her, "Wow. Weird," and then a second later: "And I want it." Suffice to say, Kane's runway sequence delivered that visceral effect in wave after wave of cleverly sequenced variety—this was no one-dimensional "statement" collection. From its opening look, an extraordinarily luxurious white leather biker jacket embossed with roses, it progressed through cream, sorbet pink, and mimosa-yellow crepe dresses and tailoring, with looped fabric detailing and with plastic nuts and bolts in place of buttons. Next came the frilly clear plastic, minutely edged in pink or yellow ribbon, and made into bizarrely glamorous pencil-dresses—and then a segue into ribbon-patterned jaquards—all vaguely forties and fifties; and then flesh-pink waffle-pleated organza suits vaguely reminiscent of old ladies' bed jackets. There was an intake of breath when the rubbery lace came out, and a collective exhale of delight when the show ended with pink organdy dresses and coats collaged with randomly taped-on patches of white lace and jewels.
In the absence of a Rosetta stone to decipher his sources, what we're left to absorb is his sly wit, an ability to transform the trashy into the subversively tasteful, and, most importantly now, the way this collection is definitively on par with many by more senior designers in Milan and Paris. Kane can touch on everything from denim to T-shirts to staple biker jackets, all the way up to party dresses. He has range. He taps into teenage naughtiness while also tickling the antennae of serious international chic. And let's not forget, he's only just passed his 30th birthday. The man still has miles further to go. And, his art teacher always predicted he could go all the way.
