CRS Volunteer Programs
Volunteers are central to our mission, serving as vibrant "ambassadors of science and engineering" to local classrooms! Our volunteers motivate teachers to "do more science" and inspire students to envision themselves as scientists and engineers.
Teachers tell us that our scientist and engineer volunteers are
"Exciting and engaging!"
Community Resources for Science connects volunteers to classrooms and opportunities throughout the East Bay. We offer comprehensive training, coaching, and support to all of our volunteers. Check out all of our volunteer options!
Bay Area Scientists in Schools (BASIS)
BASIS volunteers are scientists and engineers who generously donate their time and enthusiasm to bring hands-on science lessons directly to students. BASIS volunteers receive comprehensive training and are placed, as their schedules allow, in elementary school classrooms in Berkeley, Oakland and West Contra Costa County. Learn more about our BASIS program.
Be A Scientist (BAS)
BAS volunteers coach middle school students through the steps of designing, conducting, and communicating about their own science investigations. Once per week over the course of a six-week session, BAS volunteers go into middle school classrooms to provide individual support to students. Volunteers are trained to work with middle schoolers and teach the scientific method. Learn more about the Be A Scientist Program.
Corporate Volunteering
We work with private industries to involve their employees in sharing their talent and enthusiasm for science, engineering, technology and math! We provide training, lessons and materials for classroom visits, and handle all the logistics. Learn more about getting your company involved by emailing firstname.lastname@example.com.
Additional Outreach Opportunities
Beyond the classroom, CRS presents science in a wide variety of settings. From family science nights at schools to "pop up" science at farmers markets and street fairs, we're always looking for enthusiastic STEM professionals to serve as role models, share science knowledge, and have fun. Check out our additional outreach opportunities page and learn how to get involved.
Why Volunteer with CRS? It's a win-win-win!
When you volunteer with Community Resources for Science, you will have the chance to share your talent and passion for science and engineering, and you'll develop your skills in communicating about science. Students win too, as they learn and discover, and become inspired. And teachers benefit as they gain confidence and enthusiasm as they see how engaging hands-on science and engineering can be for all types of learners. See what our volunteers, teachers, and students have to say about BASIS!
Individuals and Partners help CRS build strong connections with schools. Join us!
Hundreds of volunteers engage thousands of students in exciting, high-quality learning experiences each year. This is thanks in large part to strong partnerships with scientists and engineers at the University of California-Berkeley, and employers such as Bayer and Clorox. We owe a special debt of gratitude to Cal Professor Robert Bergman, who brought BASIS to the College of Chemistry in 2001 and has since helped grow the program to include volunteers from over 25 campus science departments and student organizations.
Our growing list of partners includes:
Partners through UC Berkeley: Science@Cal, CalTeach, SECO, Cal Corps Public Service Centers, The Society for the Advancement of Chicanos and Native Americans in Science (SACNAS)
Private Industry Partners: Bayer, Clorox, Clif Bar, Pocket Gems

- COST has more that 20x the normal benchmarked social activity for this time of the day compared to its average of 5.84 mentions/day.
- COST has an average dollar-volume (as measured by average daily share volume multiplied by share price) of $211.2 million.
Identifying stocks with 'Unusual Social Activity' tends to be a valuable process for traders looking to capitalize on the 'talk of the town' stocks that are basking in far more attention from the StockTwits financial community than normal. Good press? Bad press? It ultimately doesn't matter if it's good or bad if you know how to trade around the sentiment. Certain hedge funds use such data for their proprietary algorithms and it is not uncommon to see shared social sentiment play itself out in a stock's price trend. EXCLUSIVE OFFER: Get the inside scoop on opportunities in COST with the Ticky from Trade-Ideas. See the FREE profile for COST NOW at Trade-Ideas More details on COST: Costco Wholesale Corporation, together with its subsidiaries, operates membership warehouses. The company offers branded and private-label products in a range of merchandise categories. The stock currently has a dividend yield of 1.2%. COST has a PE ratio of 25.6. Currently there are 11 analysts that rate Costco Wholesale a buy, no analysts rate it a sell, and 9 rate it a hold. The average volume for Costco Wholesale has been 2.3 million shares per day over the past 30 days. Costco Wholesale has a market cap of $50.1 billion and is part of the services sector and retail industry. The stock has a beta of 0.41 and a short float of 1% with 2.35 days to cover. Shares are down 4% year-to-date as of the close of trading on Wednesday. STOCKS TO BUY: TheStreet Quant Ratings has identified a handful of stocks that can potentially TRIPLE in the next 12 months. Learn more. TheStreetRatings.com Analysis: TheStreet Quant Ratings rates Costco Wholesale as a buy. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its revenue growth, good cash flow from operations and largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had sub par growth in net income. Highlights from the ratings report include:
- The revenue growth came in higher than the industry average of 6.6%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues slightly increased by 5.8%. This growth in revenue does not appear to have trickled down to the company's bottom line, displayed by a decline in earnings per share.
- Net operating cash flow has significantly increased by 68.55% to $713.00 million when compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, COSTCO WHOLESALE CORP has also vastly surpassed the industry average cash flow growth rate of 11.98%.
- The current debt-to-equity ratio, 0.43, is low and is below the industry average, implying that there has been successful management of debt levels. Despite the fact that COST's debt-to-equity ratio is low, the quick ratio, which is currently 0.56, displays a potential problem in covering short-term cash needs.
- COSTCO WHOLESALE CORP's earnings per share declined by 15.3% in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. This company has reported somewhat volatile earnings recently. We feel it is likely to report a decline in earnings in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, COSTCO WHOLESALE CORP increased its bottom line by earning $4.63 versus $3.90 in the prior year. This year, the market expects earnings to be in line with last year ($4.63 versus $4.63).
- In its most recent trading session, COST has closed at a price level that was not very different from its closing price of one year earlier. This is probably due to its weak earnings growth as well as other mixed factors. Looking ahead, the stock's rise over the last year has already helped drive it to a level which is relatively expensive compared to the rest of its industry. We feel, however, that the other strengths this company displays justify these higher price levels.

The price of the futures on the American stock index S&P500 renewed historical highs and continued growth after overcoming the level of 2135. As a result, the closest target levels are 2150 and 2200. It is worth noting the high risk of price correction after the strong growth. In case of a change of trend, target levels will be 2080 and 2040. Our medium-term outlook remains negative and we look forward to the resumption of negative dynamics in the near future.
Nearest resistance levels: 2150, 2200
Nearest support levels: 2135, 2120, 2080, 2040, 2020, 2000, 1980, 1950, 1910, 1860, 1800
The price of the futures on the German stock index DAX30 was able to overcome the resistance level at 9800, and this fact is the basis for the continuation of the upward price movement to 10150 and 10300. In case of resumption of negative dynamics, we expect a decline in prices to 9600 and 9300. Our medium-term outlook remains negative.
Nearest resistance levels: 10150, 10500, 10800, 11000, 11200
Nearest support levels: 9800, 9600, 9300, 9000, 8750, 7900, 7500
The price of the futures on the Japanese stock index Nikkei225 continued to rise and as a result has reached resistance level at 16300. It is worth noting that earlier overcoming the level of 15850 was a signal of change of the trend to positive, and we expect continued growth in the nearest future to 16800, after which the growth may continue until 17250. Despite the expectation of growth in the nearest future, we expect the resumption of negative dynamics in the medium term.
Nearest resistance levels: 16300, 16800, 17250, 17500, 18000, 18600, 19000
Nearest support levels: 15850, 15400, 15000, 14000, 13600, 12500

Legging It In Dorset — Compton Valence
Rodney Legg takes us on a seven-mile circuit through grain fields around an idyllic chalkland village
Published in August '08
Great open spaces in the high downlands between Dorchester and Bridport are explored on this seven-mile walk. Apart from occasional stretches of grass for silage or a few cattle and sheep, this is largely cereal country. Barley and wheat are the staple crops and there is a big grain store above Compton Valence. The village is set in a peaceful wooded hollow and remains a well-hidden idyll. With a population of around fifty, this has long been one of Dorset's most sparsely inhabited parishes.
Contemporary residents include Mrs Mary Spencer Moore Danowski, the daughter of sculptor Henry Moore. The old rectory is now known as Compton Valence House. All but that, the church and the village hall were bought in the 1950s from Sir Philip Williams by Wynford Eagle farmer William Noel 'Tim' Chick (1905-88). His eldest daughter married Jeremy Russell and continued to farm most of the parish from Manor Farm in Compton Valence. There are generations of Chick predecessors in the churchyard.
The church, dedicated to slain archbishop Thomas Becket, was almost entirely re-built by Christchurch architect Benjamin Ferrey in 1839. Only the 15th-century tower was left intact. The rest is Victorian Gothic, paid for by Robert Williams of Bridehead at Little Bredy, whose family owned the parish. He gave a celebratory dinner on 29 September 1840 'of which all the workers and every person in the parish partook.' Its finishing flourish, the clock, was installed in the tower in 1841 and electrified in 1979. Surviving from the earlier church is a brass, set in the floor beside the font, to Thomas Walden. The Latin inscription tells us he was 'lately rector' and had re-built the church. He died in 1437.
Walking conditions are as easy as they come. There is an initial climb, but not too demanding, to rise in half a mile by a couple of hundred feet. Pay attention to your direction – it would be sensible to take a compass – as there are big distances and few landmarks. The most useful of these are the 160-feet towers that carry 400 kilovolt cables of the National Grid towards Devon.
Park and start in Compton Valence, in the vicinity of St Thomas Becket Church and the village hall (OS map reference SY593932, postcode DT2 9ER). Set off from the church gates and cross the road into the tarred drive (S). This goes downhill and passes between ponds in 150 yards. It then climbs to a junction of tracks on the brow of Tout Hill in another 150 yards.
Bear right, uphill through a gate, into a hollow way with banks of hart's tongue fern and ransoms, the wild garlic. Follow the wooded track for 275 yards, into an arable field, on the summit. Bear left (SSW) and follow the hedgerow to the Roman road in 450 yards. Turn left along the road (SE) and then turn right in 90 yards. Go through the left-hand of the two gates and keep the hedgerow to the right (SW), up and over the rise. Follow the hedge towards the pylon line, into the corner of the field, in 650 yards.
On reaching the electricity cables, turn right along a second bridleway (NW). The track and its hedges lead into a field in 500 yards. From here, continue straight ahead, across to a gate in the roadside hedge in 275 yards. Turn right here (NNE) to a cross-roads in 450 yards. Proceed straight ahead, into Greenford Lane, and follow it (N) to a junction beside Hill Barn in 750 yards. Continue straight ahead, ignoring the sign back into Compton Valence, and pass between old and new farm buildings.
Proceed for 1000 yards and turn right on the hilltop, into a farm road (NE), which passes through gates which are set back from the tarred carriageway. Known as Haydon Track, this passes Haydon Barn in 650 yards and then continues straight ahead as a grassy path. Follow the hedgerow, keeping it on the left, into the corner of the field in 750 yards. Again continue straight ahead. At the end of this field, in 325 yards, go through the gate.
Bear a little leftward in this field, towards the communications mast behind the hedgerow facing you, and then go through the gateway – to the left of the mast – in 375 yards. Follow the track beside the hedge and approach Longlands Farm in 1000 yards. Before reaching the mast, go through a field gate and keep all the buildings to the right.
On reaching the access road, in 150 yards turn right (SW) and pass between Barnfield House and Longlands Farm in 50 yards. Continue straight ahead through the farmyard for 150 yards and then enter a double-hedged bridleway. This heads into the valley, towards the pylon line that runs along the horizon. Proceed downhill for 100 yards and approach South Slip wood.
On coming to the gate across the track, in Compton Bottom, turn right (WNW) through the right-hand field gate. Follow the fence to a field gate in 650 yards. This leads into a wider section of the valley After the next gate, in 450 yards, follow the right-hand fence along a grassy path that then gradually bends to the left (SW).
In 750 yards the bridleway continues its leftward curve (S) through a gate, but stay in the same valley and pass through a yard beside gardens and barn conversions at former Lower Dairy in 650 yards. Re-enter Compton Valence village and turn right (W) to return to the Hollows and the parish church in 100 yards.
1. Compton Valence's church is dedicated to Thomas Becket, the Archbishop of Canterbury who was martyred in 1170
2. The pond below Tout Hill
3. This Roman road went from Dorchester to Exeter

KULT2208 - Gender and Norwegian Culture: Paradoxes of Equality II

|Grade deviation
|Home examination
Course content
This course offers in depth cultural analyses of issues concerning gender and equality in Norwegian society. The main focus is on everyday life enactments and cultural constructions of gender. Some questions addressed in the lectures are: How is gender understood in various contexts in Norway? What is culturally regarded as the important similarities and differences between women and men, between Norwegians and others? Equality is a core concept and an important value in Norway, a value that is emphasized both in politics and in everyday cultural life. Throughout this course we will investigate this passion for equality as a trait of Norwegian culture and politics, and we will also discuss and question the actual concept of equality and its challenges. These challenges appear both at the intersections with a globalized world, and within a multicultural Norway. The course is interdisciplinary and will cover a wide range of topics, including but not limited to: gender related to parenthood, work, religion, ethnicity, homes, and gender and sexuality. The course is intended for both international exchange students and Norwegian students. The lectures are in English.
Learning outcome
The main objectives of this course are twofold: Firstly, the students will achieve an understanding of the cultural significance of gender and gender equality as enacted in Norwegian and Nordic society. Secondly, the students will be provided with an overview of some theoretical concepts and analytical approaches that are central within Nordic gender studies.
Candidates with this course have knowledge of:
-the concept of equality in its historical context in Norway
-the meanings of gender that underpin policies for the achievement of gender equality in the Norwegian welfare state and the paradoxes they may produce
-main trends in feminist and gender studies theory
-Gendered perspectives on the themes of Sexual politics, Reproduction, Family, Diversity, Work, Sport and Religion in relation to Norway
-contemporary challenges to the traditional model of equality
Candidates with this course have the skills to:
-identify social, cultural, political and legislative developments relating to gender and equality in key areas of Norwegian life
-identify paradoxical aspects of the Norwegian welfare state policies
-undertake a textual analysis from a gender-theoretical perspective
Learning methods and activities

What are Influenza Type A Flu and Type B Flu?
Your e-mail has been successfully sent to the recipient.
When it comes to the flu, not all types are created equal. You've probably heard that there are a few different types of the flu. According to the CDC, there are three types of influenza viruses: influenza A, influenza B and influenza C. Influenza A and B are the two main types that routinely spread in humans and cause seasonal flu epidemics. Influenza C viruses cause only mild respiratory infections and are not thought to be responsible for epidemics. 14, 15
Influenza A viruses are the most harmful, as they can cause severe disease. Wild aquatic birds are often the hosts for a large variety of influenza A viruses. Sometimes these viruses are transmitted from bird to human and can cause devastating outbreaks. Some of the subtypes of influenza A that have caused the largest number of known human deaths are:14, 15
Influenza B almost exclusively infects humans and is less common than influenza A. Flu type B also mutates about two to three times more slowly than influenza A. Because humans are the natural host of influenza B, pandemics generally do not occur with influenza B viruses.22Although scientists can classify and monitor the different types of flu viruses, it is virtually impossible for them to develop effective vaccines that provide lifelong immunity. The reason: Flu viruses mutate (change their genetic structure) and replicate (produce new, identical copies of themselves) extremely quickly, making it difficult for scientists to keep up.22
The good news is most people will recover from the flu on their own. However, if you have a severe case of the flu, you should see your healthcare provider. Not sure if you have the flu? A good indication of whether or not you have the flu is if a thermometer indicates you have a fever.
While over-the-counter medications cannot cure the flu, they can help ease your symptoms while you wait for it to run its course. If you're suffering from a sore throat, headache, cough, fever, runny nose, or minor aches and pains, NyQuil Cold & Flu and DayQuil Cold & Flu are both good options since they contain a pain reliever/fever reducer and cough suppressant. If you're suffering from more symptoms, try NyQuil SEVERE Cold & Flu, which also contains a decongestant, and DayQuil SEVERE Cold & Flu, which has an expectorant to help loosen congestion in your chest. Soon enough, you'll be on the road to recovery.

Everybody loves a book that leaves them feeling smarter when they've reached the end, and this is one book that is almost guaranteed to deliver on that front.
This is the Codex Silenda, a five-page story about an apprentice of Leonardo Da Vinci in his workshop with a magnificent, brain-melting twist – in order to turn the page, you have to solve an intricate mechanical puzzle. On paper, it sounds like the kind of thing one might see in an '80s horror movie, possibly involving an ancient evil with sharp objects sticking out of its face. But no! This is a real, presumably unhaunted book, and what's more you can actually own one yourself.
Designed by Brady Whitney at Iowa State University as part of his senior thesis project, he's now taken the project to Kickstarter. The Kickstarter ends on August 31st and has already blown past it's original goal.
Unfortunately this does mean the reward tiers offering a Codex Silenda, assembled or otherwise, are all gone. However, reward tiers still remain that offer the laser files so you can cut your own if you have access to laser cutting equipment, and there's a reward tier offering one of the five pages as a standalone reward. Check out more photos and the project video for the Codex Silenda below.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
1st DWI with high BAC. BAC was close to being misdemeanor. I know I will be told it is not smart to represent myself but I have no choice. I financially can not afford a private lawyer. Will I be able to discuss this with the prosecutor before hand to determine what will happen if I do plead guilty? I am not trying to fight this as I know what I did wrong. I would like to minimize penalties. Or is there a way to prolong court until I do have the money in two months to hire a private lawyer?Hennepin County
What county are we talking? That help answer your questions.
Do not rely on this information. This post does not create an attorney client relationship. Please contact me directly to receive formal legal advice regarding your situation.Ask a similar question
Hennepin. Sorry, thought that was in my post.
Yes you will be able to talk to the prosecutor to hear the plea offer. It will likely be a gross misdemeanor conviction, two years probation, large fine, some days on the work crew or in the workhouse, alcohol treatment or programming, etc. However, the prosecutor and judge can't do anything about your Implied Consent license revocation or plate impoundment. Many of us are willing to accept payments or run a credit card. At least talk to a few experienced DWI attorneys before walking into court blind. Good luck.
Yes you can always postpone your court to hire an attorney. They will give you a continuance for that. There are many good attorneys here on AVVO that may be willing to work with you on payments. Just give a couple a call before you decide to go it alone. Do so without delay as there are other time sensitive issues that need to be discussed like license revocation and plate impoundment. Just select "Find a Lawyer" at the top of the page. Good luck.
This is not intended as legal advice. No attorney / client relationship exists because of this response.Ask a similar question
The only penalties that the prosecutor could minimize would be jail time and the level of the charge (the fine is left up to the judge and alcohol assessment is always mandatory). The prosecutor has no power to change the driver's license or plate impoundment penalties, even if your charge is reduced. Many attorneys will consider payment plans and depending on which county you're dealing with, it may be possible to postpone the license and plate penalties while your case is handled by the attorney. Take the time to consult with a few attorneys here on avvo that devote most of our practice to DWI defense and see if something can be worked out. Otherwise, if you decide to still handle this yourself, you will have the opportunity to speak with the prosecutor before you decide what to do. You could also ask for more time to hire a lawyer when you go to court and they Gould continue your case, but keep in mind that your attorney will only have 30 days from the date of arrest to file the challenges to your revocation and plate impoundment to get those penalties postponed if you're in Hennepin or Ramsey County.Ask a similar question
Hello. Some attorneys will provide reduced fee for financial need and some will make payment plan arrangements with you. It is possible to request a 'continuance' (postponement of court date) of a reasonable time length as to the criminal case issues.
TWIN CITIES to ST CLOUD. Do seek legal counsel for your personal legal issues and needs. This post is not legal advice and does not create an attorney-client relationship. This post is to be considered general information which may or may not apply to your personal situation.Ask a similar question
Many lawyers offer payment plans. You should seek counsel. Much is at stake.
A third degree offense is serious. It is also both criminal and civil in nature. If you do nothing, the license revocation is automatic. You only have thirty days to challenge that revocation. It is entirely separate from the criminal case.
With regard to the criminal case, a third degree offense is a gross misdemeanor which carries with it maximum possible penalties of ONE year in jail and a $3,000 fine. If convicted, there are also mandatory minimum sentences. That means the least amount of jail time you would serve is likely to be 30 days. Obviously, penalties may be significantly greater. As a result, it is important to present an aggressive defense. It is also important to know and understand the Judge's and their proclivities in your county.
S indicated, a DWI is not only a criminal case, it has a civil element as well. There is a license revocation related to a DWI that is a case entirely separate from the criminal matter. Nothing in the criminal matter will change the license revocation which occurs automatically unless you seek a judicial review of that revocation. This MUST occur within 30 days after you were ticketed. Any failure to seek a judicial review results in the license revocation and a record that indicates a new alcohol related offense that can be used to make any subsequent DWI a greater crime. In that judicial review, the challenges are the same as those made in the criminal case.
There are also additional consequences to a conviction including skyrocketing insurance rates, plate impoundments and sometimes vehicle forfeitures.
There are many challenges to a DWI. The defenses depend on the particular set of facts in each case. That means a detailed review of all evidence, including police reports, police videos, audio recordings and testing records related to blood alcohol levels is imperative. Often, hidden defenses are found through a thorough review of all evidence.
The fact is that Officers must follow very specific steps as part of the arrest. If any one step is missing, the case may be dismissed.
Other points of a defense analysis include:
· Reasonable Suspicion. The officer must have reasonable suspicion to believe a specific crime has been committed in order to stop a person. If that reasonable suspicion is lacking the stop and the ticket may be invalid;
· Probable Cause to arrest and charge. The officer must make sufficient observations to form a basis for probable cause to believe that you were operating a vehicle while intoxicated. Oftentimes, officers perform field sobriety tests incorrectly making the arrest invalid;
· Procedures at the Station. The officer must follow very specific procedures at the station including reading and recording an Implied Consent Advisory that informs you that you have a right to a lawyer. If any of the steps are omitted, the charges may be dismissed;
· Test Procedures. Testing methods to determine blood alcohol concentrations are imperfect at best. Like any scientific method, any test result has a margin of error. If the machinery is not properly maintained and even if it is properly maintained, the test results may vary from true Blood Alcohol Concentration. A sufficient variation may result in a reduce charge or no charge.

You state that you're not trying to fight this, but the outcome of your case is often dictated by the strength or weakness of your case. YOu may think you'e up a creek, but DWI is a nuanced area of law with a heck of a lot of case law. Many attorneys will charge an abbreviated fee just to make the discovery request, go over all the reports and videos, and tell you whether you have a challenge or whether you're totally screwed. However, it is important at all costs that you not give up the ghost with the prosecutor. If he sees that, he'll offer you only the standard disposition. Are you likely going to jail? No. Are you going to be facing an arduous probation that could be easily violated that could THEN land you in jail? Yes. Do not fly through DWI land alone. Hire an attorney, even at an abbreviated fee if only to lend his legal expertise to a thorough examination of your file.Ask a similar question
You owe it to yourself to at least contact a few attorneys to find out their rates. Many attorneys of many different rates. You may surprise yourself and find someone who is affordable. Also, ask if they can work out a payment plan, or accept credit cards.
Yes, you should be able to speak with the prosecutor in court. By no means, will you be expected to enter a guilty plea without knowing what the outcome would be. With that being said, I would advise that you consult with an attorney prior to accepting any deal. Although you accept responsibility, there may be one of several defenses to you case. Also, an attorney may be able to negotiate a better resolution to your case.
Yes, a judge will allow you more time if you let him/her know you are trying to retain an attorney.

Born and raised in Houston, Texas. Went off to college at TCU and came back home for law school. I know Houston. I am raising my family in Houston. I love Houston. It's my job to protect the citizens of Houston.
My favorite part of this job is going to trial. And, it's that love of trial that gets great results before a trial is necessary. Too often the State will try and force you into a deal. Let me analyze the case. Let me analyze the State. The State has the burden of proof to prove that you committed that crime beyond a reasonable doubt. Don't go down without taking a swing of the bat. But, it's best to bring the biggest bat you can carry.
I live by my word and will always be straight with you. When you hire me, I will give you my cell phone number and you can call/text/email me at any time. Afterall, I work for you.

Hemming Halfdansson
Hemming Halfdansson (died 837) was "of the Danish race, a most Christian leader".[1] He was probably a son of Halfdan, a leading Dane who became a vassal of Charlemagne in 807. He was probably related to the Danish royal family, as "Hemming" was one of their favoured names. The onomastic evidence includes the Danish king Hemming I (reigned 810–12) and then a Hemming II, who was recalled to Denmark from Francia by his brothers Harald Klak and Reginfrid after Hemming I's death. This Hemming was probably the same person as Hemming Halfdansson. He probably soon returned to Francia, since there is no evidence of him in Danish politics after he and his brothers were driven out by the sons of Godfrid in 813.[2]
It is probable that Hemming was received by the Franks and granted Walcheren, a fortress in Frisia, as a benefice. It may have been held earlier by his father, it was certainly granted in 841 to the Danes Harald and Rorik. He, along with its Frankish count, Eccihard, died defending it from a Viking attack in 837.[3] Probably both Eccihard and Hemming were responsible for the defence of Frisia from the Vikings, as a capitulary of 821 refers to "the counts who are responsible for coastal defence". If so, Hemming appears to have been the superior, since Thegan of Trier in his Gesta Hludowici imperatoris, an account of the reign of Louis the Pious, names him first when recording the dead, followed by "another leader, Eccihard, and many of the emperor's nobles".[4] On the other hand, Hemming may have been a courtier sent by the emperor to aid the local leader, Eccihard.
- ^ "ex stirpe Danorum, dux christianissimus", according to Thegan. The translated quotation is from Simon Coupland (1998), "From Poachers to Gamekeepers: Scandinavian Warlords and Carolingian Kings", Early Medieval Europe, 7(1): 87 and note 11.
- ^ Coupland, 87–88.
- ^ There are references to their deaths in the Annales Fuldenses, Annales Bertiniani and in Thegan, cf. Coupland, 88.
- ^ "Eccihardus alius dux et multi optimates imperatoris", quoted in Coupland, 88 and note 17.

Online Toner Retailer Says Remanufactured Cartridges Help Save the Environment and Money
an online imaging supplies retailer, says that remanufactured
cartridges save the environment and money. Using compatible brand ink
cartridges, also known as generic cartridges, is one way of saving the
CA MAR 2007 — OfficeSupplyOutfitters, an online imaging supplies
retailer, says that the growing amount of online sales of compatible
brand third party toner and inkjet cartridges proves that our customers
want to save money, but we would be surprised if they realized how the
purchase of our supplies also helps the environment, something we all
want to do. The second biggest office expense for a business is its
toner and inkjet cartridges purchases. If those used up cartridges are
renewed, we can redirect thousands of tons of waste from landfills
annually as well as save businesses money. Purchasing compatible brand
ink cartridges one way of cutting down on environmental
pollution."Compatible brand toner cartridges nd inkjet cartridges can
save the consumer up to 50 percent less than OEM (original equipment
manufacturer) supplies and a large percentage of original material used
in manufacturing is conserved," says Mike Gardner, the company's
president . "During the past ten years, the push to assure standardized
quality of toner cartridges, has driven manufacturers to improve their
products, and find new ways to remanufacture a higher percentage of
every toner cartridge."A total cartridge lab that tests and evaluates
remanufactured toner cartridges to assure standardized quality has been
functioning since July, 2001 at the National Center for Remanufacturing
and Resource Recovery (NCR3) at Rochester Institute of Technology's
Center for Integrated Manufacturing Studies (CIMS). Its mission is
purported to help the remanufacturing industry design and construct
standardized products to near-new condition with no adverse
consequences to the environment.Nabil Nasr, at NCR3 says, toner
cartridges remanufacturing is a prime example of how economic
prosperity and environmental conservation can work hand-in-hand–when
it makes economic sense to do things environmentally, the system takes
care of itself."The toner cartridge remanufacturing industry continues
to evolve internationally with thousands of companies employing tens of
thousands of people yielding over a hundred million dollars in revenue
in the U.S. alone. "The remanufactured cartridge industry is one of the
most significant reuse efforts in the country," says Timonie Hood, an
environmental protection specialist for EPA Region 9 in California.
About Office Supply Outfitters
has been an online retailer of compatible brand toner and inkjet
cartridges since January 2001 and occupies office and warehouse space
in Carlsbad, CA. Sales of their compatible toner are via their website
at http://www.officesupplyoutfitters.com/lasprinsup.html and all other imaging
supplies from their home page at http://www.officesupplyoutfitters.com.

The news today that Stephen Strasburg is likely out for the next 12-15 months for Tommy John surgery can't be much of a shock. For a 21st century pitcher who throws that hard, it seems almost an inevitability.
The list of successful returns from the TJ procedure is long and impressive, and includes two guys you've seen this week in opposing uniforms: Ryan Dempster of the Cubs and Chris Carpenter of the Cardinals.
You saw Tim Hudson make the All-Star team this year, along with Arthur Rhodes. They're both TJ alums. I'm sure there are many others, but you get the drift.
Given Strasburg's commitment to conditioning, I have no doubt he'll return with the speed of Jordan Zimmermann, back on the big league mound after 13 months.
I'm sure there are multiple posters out there who will try and attach blame to someone, but maybe these things are destined to happen anyway. The Nationals have multiple candidates for the 2011 rotation, and now, multiple candidates for the Opening Day start next year as well.
The TJ patient roster seems to be getting younger and younger. There's a message in there somewhere; I'm not qualified to determine what it is yet, but someone with a better knowledge of physiology/kinesiology will surely come up with it.

LAFAYETTE — Tough guy Mark Hudspeth stood in the middle of a team huddle and barked orders at his players before they began practice this week, the veins popping in his muscular neck as he worked his players into a frenzy.
The message?
Apply your makeup, ladies!
"I was reminding them that this is New Mexico State's homecoming, and we're the homecoming queen," Hudspeth said. "We've got to make sure we get our makeup on and get all pretty …"
Now wait just a second. I was sitting there listening to Hudspeth say this and at this moment my jaw went slack.
What, exactly, does Hudspeth mean get pretty?
"… and that, to me, means preparing."
Ok, now I'm intrigued. Pray tell, what do corsages and gowns have to do with getting a bunch of young men ready to go beat some heads in?
"Making sure we're ready to play and starting fast, because last year we didn't start fast," Hudspeth said. "We were not ready to play."
Oh. Well now it makes a little more sense.
The Cajuns probably felt like the belle of the ball last season when they invited New Mexico State to Cajun Field. They were in the midst of a five-game win streak and were coming off their most impressive defensive performance of the year in a 23-7 win against Arkansas State.
That certainly sounds familiar, doesn't it?
The mirror on the wall told them they were the fairest of them all, so they didn't need to give ol' Quasimodo a second glance as he shuffled into the building with his ugly 1-7 record.
It turns out the Cajuns were more Sleeping Beauty than Cinderella. They weren't prepared for New Mexico State last year, and it almost cost them.
"We entered that game and we were sleep walking early," Hudspeth said. "Before we knew it we looked up and I think we were down 21 points."
Twenty-one minutes into the game was all the Aggies needed to build a 21-point lead. The stunned Cajuns weren't looking so pretty any more.
They hadn't taken the time to properly apply their makeup throughout the week, and their ugly blemishes were being exposed for all to see. They ended up storming back to win the game, but Hudspeth the beautician is trying to make sure they don't fall into a big hole against the Aggies again.
The conditions are awfully similar this year. The Aggies, once again, are having a rough season. They've lost seven straight to come into the game with a 2-7 record. The Cajuns, like last season, have rebounded from a slow start to win four straight.
"Last year, they jumped out on us right away, so I promise you, they have our team's respect," Hudspeth said. "It was a dogfight last year. To climb back into that game, we were very fortunate.
"We're going to practice this week with an attitude that we're going to have to be much better, because last year's effort won't be good enough against these guys."
The Cajuns have already experienced a situation like last year's New Mexico State game this season. After it was over, players admitted they didn't respect Louisiana Tech's abilities. The Bulldogs responded by sending the Cajuns into a tailspin that it took them awhile to get out of.
Lately, the Cajuns have done a better job of avoiding the preconceived notion that they're better than the other team, regardless of record. It's resulted in a four-game winning streak.
"I think we've done a much better job of starting faster these last four games we've won," Hudspeth said. "We're being a little more aggressive, and I think our coaches are doing a good job making sure our players are ready to play right off the bat. Because we were not ready the first half last year, and they made us pay for that."
So heat your curling irons and schedule your manicures, Cajuns. You've got to look good this weekend. Anything less could result in disaster.

The New Mexico Congressional Delegation today confirmed that President Obama has signed a disaster declaration, making qualified New Mexico counties eligible for Federal Emergency Management Agency funds.
In February, parts of New Mexico suffered from record-breaking cold weather that disrupted natural gas and water services. Subsequently, Governor Susana Martinez sought a disaster declaration allowing FEMA to assist communities recovering from the damage. The request, which was approved today, was strongly supported by the Congressional Delegation in a letter to President Obama.
As a result of the declaration, the following counties and communities can seek FEMA assistance: Lincoln, Otero, Rio Arriba, Sierra, Socorro, and Taos Counties and the Tribal jurisdictions of the Mescalero Apache Tribe, Santa Ana Pueblo, Taos Pueblo, and the portions of Santa Clara Pueblo that lie entirely within Rio Arriba County. FEMA continues to review Bernalillo, Doña Ana and Sandoval counties; the declaration can be amended to include them.
Communities can seek funds to defray the cost of debris removal, emergency protective measures, road systems and bridges, water control facilities, public buildings and contents, public utilities and parks. FEMA typically covers costs that are otherwise not covered by insurance.
"The record-breaking cold weather took its toll on a significant part of our state. I'm glad President Obama has signed this disaster declaration, which enables New Mexico communities to enlist FEMA's help," Senator Jeff Bingaman said.
"Tens of thousands of residents and businesses lost heat and water, while state and local authorities were stretched to manage the crisis as a result of the cold conditions. The federal disaster declaration for public assistance by the president is welcome news that will enable FEMA to help the continued recovery of our communities," Senator Tom Udall said.
"I'm pleased that many communities in New Mexico will now receive some relief from this crisis. At the same time, FEMA must address the serious impacts to Bernalillo and Sandoval counties and provide them with the needed designation for assistance," Representative Martin Heinrich said.
"These federal funds will help local and tribal governments recoup some of the costs incurred from their efforts to help families and small businesses rebuild, repair, and recover from the natural gas outage. After traveling throughout the affected region in Northern New Mexico -- witnessing the dedication of first responders, local leaders, and families -- I am pleased our communities will receive this much-needed federal assistance," Representative Ben Ray Luján said.
"I am pleased that FEMA has responded positively to the needs of the people of New Mexico, and will work with the Governor and the congressional delegation in the ongoing effort to make people whole. FEMA still has to finish assessing the full request that includes the state's larger counties, but I commend the agency for moving forward today and not holding up critical action for these jurisdictions," Representative Steve Pearce said.
The New Mexico Department of Homeland Security and Emergency Management will be asked to brief eligible counties and communities about the benefits triggered by a disaster declaration. Additionally, that department will receive the initial application from communities, which will have 30 days from their designation date to apply. If approved, FEMA will pay 75 percent of the costs; the state will cover the rest.
February 24, 2011
The Honorable Barack Obama
President of the United States
The White House
Washington, D.C. 20500
Dear Mr. President:
We respectfully request that you declare a Major Disaster for the State of New Mexico for
Public Assistance as a result of the severe winter storm and related loss of essential natural gas
home heating service throughout New Mexico.
Starting on February 1, New Mexico experienced an extended period of extreme cold, as low at
-30 degrees Fahrenheit in some areas, which set records throughout the state. These extreme
cold temperatures impacted critical natural gas infrastructure, causing a severe shortage of
natural gas in New Mexico starting early on February 3 and led to the loss of central heating to
over 28,000 families, businesses, and public facilities. First responders were stretched to the
limit, over 20 shelters were set up throughout the state, and frozen pipes caused significant
damage to public buildings and critical public water supply infrastructure.
On February 3, Governor Susana Martinez declared a State of Emergency for New Mexico. On
February 23, she requested a federal disaster declaration for public assistance to cover
approximately $4.6 million in documented costs to governments and public infrastructure in
the following counties: Taos, Bernalillo, Doña Ana, Rio Arriba, Socorro, Otero, Sandoval, Sierra,
and Lincoln. In addition, the request includes the following Tribal governments: Taos Pueblo,
Santa Clara Pueblo, Santa Ana Pueblo, San Felipe Pueblo, and the Mescalero Apache Tribe. If
granted, state, local and tribal governments will receive federal resources to help recover from
the disaster and conduct mitigation to prevent further damages in the future. The request for
the federal disaster declaration did not include a request for individual assistance.
Once again, we respectfully request you to quickly declare a Major Disaster for Public
Assistance in the State of New Mexico. Thank you for your prompt consideration of this
request, and if we can be of any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Senator Jeff Bingaman

Barbie has been an American icon since the 1950s. Dressing up like Barbie is easy because Barbie has been seen in many incarnations, and you possibly have several of them on hand in your closet. If not, put together a Barbie costume easily by adding some of Barbie's trademarks to make her look unmistakable.
Barbie Fairy
Fairies are the latest in a long line of different styles of Barbies. The fairy Barbie dolls wear sparkling outfits, have long, flowing tresses and large colorful wings. Emulate Barbie's fairy style by wearing a wig of any color, glittery face makeup, a leotard and skirt with tights, and shiny shoes. Add a pair of wings of any color and lots of colorful bracelets and necklaces to complete the Barbie fairy look.
Princess Barbie
A princess costume can be made to look a little more like something Barbie would wear by adding a long blond wig, tiara and classic Barbie makeup. Blue eyeshadow, red or pink lipstick and lots of mascara would provide a Barbie face for the princess costume. A glittery necklace that looks like diamonds will complete Barbie's princess ensemble.
Career Barbie
Barbie has held many jobs over the decades. She has been a veterinarian, doctor, mother, chef, computer engineer and even an astronaut. Dress for one of these fields and add a long Barbie wig and Barbie makeup to look like a career-driven Barbie. Don't forget accessories like a spatula for Chef Barbie and a laptop case for Computer Engineer Barbie. Barbie has also been seen in a bridal gown.
"Toy Story" Barbie
Barbie appears in "Toy Story" as one of the main characters and provides comic relief with her wit and personality. She is seen wearing a leotard and tights that are turquoise and metallic, with a belt and striped legwarmers. Her blond hair is in a ponytail high on her head, and she is wearing the classic Barbie blue eyeshadow and bright pink lipstick.
Retro Barbie
Go retro with some Barbie looks from long ago. In the '80s, Barbie fronted a rock band called Barbie and the Rockers. She wore a white miniskirt, sparkly silver top and a hot pink jacket. She wore pink boots and had pink stripes in her hair. She came with a microphone and had wild, colorful makeup on. Another retro Barbie look is the classic Malibu Barbie. She is very tan and wears a turquoise bikini, a yellow wrap and sunglasses. Her hair is long and worn down with pink lipstick.

It's time for Northwestern Oklahoma State University faculty and staff members to start taking steps – literally – to improve their health. Shawna Bivin, director of J.R. Holder Wellness Center, encourages every employee at all three Northwestern campuses to join Walktober, a national walking campaign that lasts through the month of October.
The four-week program begins Oct. 4 and is designed to help participants incorporate walking into their daily routines.
Northwestern faculty and staff members will join fellow employees from their respective buildings to form teams. For instance, employees in the Fine Arts Building will be one team, and employees in Herod Hall will form another team. Team members will keep track of minutes walked during the entire month, and the team to walk the most minutes will receive a trophy or a plaque that will move from winning building to winning buliding each year.
Minutes will be recorded on calendar log sheets, available at the Wellness Center. The log sheets contain space for participants' names, campuses and buildings in which they work.
Participants can walk inside the Wellness Center or outside on their own time. Minutes should be recorded on the appropriate calendar day each time the participant walks.
Log sheets should be turned in no later than Wednesday, Nov. 3, at the front desk of the Wellness Center. The winning building will be announced Thursday, Nov. 4.
Faculty and staff members can stop by the Wellness Center Oct. 15, 22 and 29 to enter a drawing for a Subway gift card. To be eligible to win, participants must show that they walked at least three times prior to the week they enter the drawing. Gift card drawings will take place on Wednesdays, and winners will be contacted by phone or e-mail.
All participants will be entered to win one of two grand prizes, which will be announced at a later date. The drawings will take place Nov. 4.
MISSION STATEMENT: Northwestern Oklahoma State University provides quality educational and cultural opportunities to learners with diverse needs by cultivating ethical leadership and service, critical thinking and fiscal responsibility.

President Obama's team formally threatened to veto a House Republican bill today that includes both an extension of the payroll tax cut and an oil pipeline project, saying the tax cut should stand alone.
"This debate should not be about scoring political points," said a statement from the Office of Management and Budget. "This debate should be about cutting taxes for the middle class."
House Republicans, who plan to vote on their bill later today, say the proposed Keystone XL oil pipeline from Canada to Texas will create jobs and improve the nation's energy situation.
Obama says the pipeline project requires further environmental study.
The payroll tax cut extension that Obama and the Republicans agree to in 2010 expires at the end of the month, meaning a de facto tax hike for millions of Americans if nothing is done.
Brendan Buck, a spokesman for House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, said Obama's veto threat "amounts to legislative malpractice."
"After the House passes the Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act, the Democrats who run Washington will have to act," Buck said. "The Senate can take up our bill and amend it, or they can pass their own bill. But they can't continue to shirk their responsibility to govern. America can't wait."
The House bill also includes an extension of long-term unemployment benefits, which the White House supports.
In their veto threat, Obama aides complained that the cost of the payroll tax cut extension would be borne by the middle class; Senate Democrats have proposed a surtax on millionaires. They said the GOP wants to "introduce ideological issues into what should be a simple debate about cutting taxes for the middle class."
Last week, the president said he would "reject" any effort to link an extension of the payroll tax to another issue, including the Keystone pipeline.
Even if the House Republican majority passes the bill, it will likely face opposition in the Democratic-run Senate.

You have Chosen! A History of Lancashire in 70 Objects.
You have chosen!
We are delighted that The House, 84 Plymouth Grove, was our voting public's object of choice to nominate for a history of Lancashire in 70 Objects.
Amongst our staff, volunteers and trustees the inclusion of the House, as an object, did lead to some interesting and lively debate as to how we interpret the word 'object'. We do feel however that the House, in its entirety, is a brilliantly appropriate object to nominate. Instead of me telling you why though I will let these quotes from participants do so!
'A beautiful house with a lovely atmosphere'
'The house oozes with the spirit of Elizabeth Gaskell. You can feel the happy spirit in which all the other (wonderful) objects take their rightful place.'
'I have chosen the house because its monumental infamy is greater and wider in its pertinence to Lancashire history. The other items are period specific. This is providing that the house is always referred to as Gaskell's house for which it is most famous. This monument, if nominated would act like an umbrella under which all of the other items maintained. Without the house, the collection above would not contribute significantly to any sense of place, and could be more at risk of becoming disparate.'
'This house was home to so much - not only Elizabeth and her illustrious visitors, but also William, who made his own significant contribution as scholar and social reform campaigner. The house stands as a monument to the kinder, more progressive and enlightened face of Victorian Manchester.'
'The warmth of the good lady is still there.'

Mobilization of Arsenite by Competitive Interaction with Silicic Acid
- Todd P. Luxton *a,
- Christopher J. Tadanierb and
- Matthew J. Eicka
Due to the acute toxicity of As, mobilization of even a small fraction of As into surface and ground waters used as a source for drinking water represents a substantial risk to human health. Here we evaluate the mobilization of arsenite [As(III)] from the Fe-(hydr)oxide mineral goethite (α-FeOOH) through competitive displacement by silicic acid, a naturally occurring and ubiquitous inorganic ligand. The adsorption behaviors of silicic acid and As(III) on goethite were investigated at environmentally relevant pH (3–11). Single ion adsorption and zeta-potential data were collected at silica concentrations characteristic of natural waters (3–30 mg L−1) and initial solution As(III) concentrations representative of high levels of contamination (3.75–7.5 mg L−1). Competitive adsorption scenarios with either Si or As(III) sorbed first to the goethite surface, followed by equilibration with the other sorbate, were also examined. No competitive displacement of either oxyanion was observed at total sorbate concentrations less than reactive surface site density, regardless of pH or addition scenario. However, at total sorbate concentrations greater than reactive surface site density, As(III) adsorption was reduced by 10 to 15% over the entire pH range regardless of addition scenario, resulting in aqueous concentrations well in excess of current (10 μg L−1) drinking water maximum contaminant levels. Surface complexation modeling of single ion adsorption and zeta-potential data using the Charge Distribution Multisite Surface Complexation (CD-MUSIC) model was used to calculate an appropriate set of surface adsorption equilibrium constants for As(III) and silicic acid adsorption, which was used to describe the competitive adsorption scenarios. Comparison of competitive adsorption data and CD-MUSIC model predictions, at total sorbate concentration greater than reactive surface site density of goethite, suggest that silica is competitively displaced by As(III).Please view the pdf by using the Full Text (PDF) link under 'View' to the left.
