When I was younger I learned to play the piano and the drums. I was often bored and irritated by the need to learn scales for the piano and 'rudiments' (rolls, paradiddles etc) for the drums. "I won't ever actually need to play these," I would think (and I see this with my own elder son who is also learning piano).
This of course is true: no one wants to go to a concert to hear major or minor scales. The point however is that they provide two things...
There are similarities here with how we perceive and use the core elements in the ITSM world…
Much of the traditional training content built around ITIL and ITSM focusses on processes. We still need these, of course, but often we focus on the process rather than the outcome or intended goal. It's important that we use these processes. But they are not the end game of this work. They are just the building blocks that we use to create practical and effective service solutions.
Here's an example. Many of us use Incident, Problem and Knowledge Management with CSI to improve the following:
If we improve our CSI and Problem processes to move more issue resolution to the front line we can reduce customer downtime. This also reduces the cost of managing incidents. We can also deploy Knowledge Management to re-use fix activities to speed up future resolution.
Improving first-level fix rates is better for customers and also for support staff. It creates a more rewarding role for service desk staff, and second/third line staff are able to focus more on strategic technical issues. All these practices use ITIL/ITSM processes. They are the scales and rudiments that we can use to create a great customer experience and effective service operation.
We often call this 'Shift Left' – ie to move the resolution point as near as possible to the customer. Shift Left is an application of ITSM using existing processes. It is a focussed way of thinking around improving service quality rather than simply a boring old process. Just as with music and other endeavours, if we want to be successful, what matters is not just that we learn what the basics and rudiments are, but how to apply them.
Check out details of our new Shift Left workshop on 26th May.

The 18-year-old Boyfriend singer's father Jeremy said that Justin keeps his room illuminated in case he gets scared during the night, a website reported.
"My hands sweat a lot, so do his. And his feet. They don't smell though. And he was afraid of the dark for most of his life," Jeremy said. Justin said that he thanks the Lord on a regular basis.
"God means a lot to me. I pray when I go to sleep. I pray during the day, when I have a problem or when I just want to thank him for all he's done for me. Without God I wouldn't be in this position," he said.

My name is Joline Beardsley and I am the Drama Coach here at Mahoney. I have been working in the South Portland School Department for 18 years, the last 4 as the secretary to the Assistant Principals' at South Portland High School. I have been coaching the Drama Club here at Mahoney for the past 6 years.
This is a great way for your student to ease into the world of theater. We, as a group, design the scenery, create costumes, decide how to set up the stage, try out and assign parts, and help each other memorize lines. We have a group of approximately 20 students this year and we are looking forward to 2 amazing performances. Our first performance will be "Junie B. Jones and My Big Fat Mouth". We will perform this for the Elementary schools here in South Portland.
Students are welcome to join at any time of the year because we can always use an extra set of hands!
See you on stage!

In 1915, a German phosgene gas shell strayed from its target and hit a small village in France where Marie Curie's daughters were visiting a sick friend and were killed. Grief-stricken and seeking revenge, Curie proposed to the French government the idea of a dirty bomb to seed the enemy with radioactive material. A secret project began and two years later, several dirty bombs were dropped behind the Hindenburg Line in Northern France, killing thousands of soldiers with deadly amounts of radiation.
The German army, decimated by the attack and already suffering heavy economic losses, are forced to surrender.
The Post-War Environment 1916-1940
After the war, the world was a very different place. Due to the radiation from the bombs, a large, formerly fertile swath of Central Europe was useless and dangerous. The depression resulting from the economic losses caused by the bombs was a driving force in increased emigration, both East and West, depopulating Europe.
This mass emigration brought the French atomic scientists to the new economic superpowers of the United States, the Soviet Union and the Empire of Japan as they engaged in an arms race. The British Empire and Germany, meanwhile, developed their own atomic program for internal matters.
Germany After the War
After the Great War, Germany was in economic and military crisis. In 1932, the Nazi won mandate in the Reichstag making Germany major power. It then developed a electronics industry of their own in 1934. Himmler doesn't exile Jews but instead rounds up as many Jewish scientists like von Braun. Seeing nuclear weapons are being widely used, Himmler focus militarily and scientific research on making a atomic weapons by 1936. Germany than annexes Austria, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, Poland, and Turkey within weeks with little oppression. With the new weapons, Nazi Germany begins WW-II.
The United States After the War
The United States left the war relatively unscathed and began the economic boom of the 1920s. The fear of possible enemies of the U.S. developing their own dirty bombs drives America into its own weapons program, luring now-impoverished European physicists to American labs with promises of lucrative salaries and lives better than they could possibly have in the Old World.
This new atomic fear fueled the paranoia which was already running rampant in the United States as nationalism grew and Fascist politicians gained support. By the time the U.S. detonated its first true atomic weapon in 1932, the Fascist Party had control of all three branches of the government and the extremely popular and charismatic Charles Lindbergh was elected president-for-life. He then changes the United States of America to the New American Republic.
The increased military spending in the U.S. saved the economy from the dust bowl years when aid to drought-stricken states was made possible through relief efforts made by new Atomic Millionaires who had close ties to the Fascist Party and helped bring it into power by financing campaigns in the affected states.
The United States took slightly longer than the U.S.S.R. to develop their atomic weapons, however with the work of Robert Goddard assisted by the Peruvian Engineer Pedro Paulet and German expatriate Hermann Oberth ensured that they were the first to develop both the ICBM (in 1935) and, later, the space-based weapons platforms. By the late 1930s the Fascist Party lost support and was overthrown in 1938. Franklin D. Roosevelt took office and revise the constitution. USA then makes foreign relations with Great Britain, Spain and France, later forming the North Atlantic Alliance.
Russia After the War
Lenin's interest in the development of the atomic weapon was immediate. He saw it as a weapon to bring the Communist revolution to the world and began a program to develop it as a terrorist weapon. Luring several German scientists with the promise of finding peaceful uses of atomic power, Lenin forced them to work on his Tunguska Bomb project, named after the famous 1908 Siberian explosion, in a secluded lab in the Ural mountains. The most notable scientist to be snared by this trap was German scientist and Igor Kurchatov, lured by the promise of science making a better world.
The mind of Igor ensured Russia first place in the arms race, detonating the first true atomic weapon in 1930 at a test site in a remote part of the Siberian wilderness, overseen by Premier Trotsky in person. Efforts were then focused on miniaturization, attempting to fulfill Lenin's dream of an atomic bomb you could put in a car trunk or even suitcase so that revolutionaries could bring down their capitol cities. This effort was a main factor in the American ICBM program as fears of a world Communist atomic revolution grew in an increasingly in America.
Japan After the War
Although it was unable to lure very many European scientists, Japan began an extensive atomic espionage program, leading to the theft of the necessary information allowing them to develop their own atomic bomb by 1935. Focusing on quick refinement and mass-production, the Japanese then engaged in an extensive bombing campaign of Asia in an effort to spread the empire. Although this left much of China and the Korean Peninsula unusable in the short term, Japanese studies on the effects of radiation helped them to develop atomic weapons with short half-lives, allowing them to take the land once the radiation had been reduced to safe levels.
To make certain that these emptied cities would not be reclaimed by refugees, a massive germ and chemical warfare campaign supplemented the bombing, virtually depopulating most of Asia, allowing Japan to recolonize much of the continent.
The Soviets, worried about Japan's Asian ambitions, begin development on the Kamchatka Line, a series of atomic bunkers with short-range atomic weapons to defend against Japanese attacks. Dubbed the Second Great Wall by the West, it is derided as a wasted effort.
The British Empire After the War
The British Empire gained Germany's colonies, took control of the Ottoman Empire and other parts of the Middle East (including Persia), and became even wealthier. Britain was a relative latecomer to the weapons game. Initially, post-war reconstruction, although less expensive than mainland Europe, made such a consideration impossible. However, with the help of Albert Einstein and multiple colonial uprisings made the British determined to use the new atomic sciences to win rebellions of their empire.
Impressed by the Japanese bombings in Asia, they work in partnership with them, providing money for atomic experimentation in exchange for arms, which they then use on various rebellious parts of the colonies to permanently scare the natives into submission. Britain also looks to the USA to help each other in during the arm race.
WW2 And Nuclear War 1940-1943
Bored with South East Asia by 1940, Japan turns to the Americas for their expansionism. They then begin an invasion of Hawaii to begin the war. The USA does not take it so well, and launches a nuclear attack on the main Japanese islands, crippling the empire. Japan then retaliates by nuking Hawaii. Germany invades U.S.S.R but are halt in Stalingrad for only a few weeks until it was destroy. The Soviets respond by sending atomic weapon into the streets of Berlin. The bombers was intercepted, but half of Berlin was nuked, killing Himmler. The Nazis retaliated by using V-2s on Moscow, Leningrad, Trotskygrad and Omsk.
This war left 100 million dead, and the Fascist party was permanently discredited for the nuclear destruction of Hawaii.
Nuclear Fallout 1943-1950
Afterwards, fallout began to occur all over the world. massive amounts of radiation begins to rapidly spread across many countries, which would ultimately bring another 350 million people dead and 500 million mutated from the effects of radiation. It wasn't just humans who suffered from the fallout, it had spread through the oceans killing 90% of all wildlife in the ocean and 80% of wildlife was killed on land. The nuclear fallout had done more damage and brought more casualties than both world wars combined and almost brought extinction of all life.
United States after the Fallout
After the nuclear fallout, the U.S has suffered from the loss of Hawaii after it was devoid of life after the nuclear war. The U.S population has also dramatically increased from originally being 150 million all the way to nearly 400 million due to European refugees fleeing to America from the fallout. From then, there was violence everywhere and riots storming across Washington D.C. blaming the government for allowing the U.S. bring the destruction of Hawaii. Having no choice, president Franklin D. Roosevelt has declared martial law across the country to control the violence. Although, riots do decrease by 20%, it wasn't enough to calm down the citizens. A few weeks later, California has declared its own independence and taking Arizona and Nevada along to create the Republic of California. A few days later, Texas secedes from the U.S. to create the Republic of Texas and soon creates an alliance with California to declare war on the U.S. for not finding a solution to help the country after the fallout thus causing a second civil war.
Japan after the Fallout
Due to mainland Japan being destroyed from the nuclear attack, Japan had fell into anarchy across the empire. Most of the territories Japan had claimed, simply declared independence and destroyed what was left of the Japanese military. What was left of the Japanese government left to an isolated island 500 miles away from mainland Japan in hopes of saving the empire but, due to the radiation, it had killed the government. What was left of Japan was annexed by China despite of its condition.
Europe after the Fallout
Europe was the most heavily damaged and radiated during the fallout and nuclear war. Approximately 400 million people had died and 1 billion people fled from Europe to avoid the fallout. Most of the refugees left to America while the others fled to other parts of the world. Due to this, Europe was largely depopulated from once having a population of 1.5 billion from to a mere 320 million people.
France after the Fallout
While France was largely unscathed,it had suffered during the fallout. Before the fallout began,the French government had moved to French Guiana and because of that, the government was intact but half of France was heavily irradiated. France had also survived due to the movement of the government and with minimal casualties. France is later seen allying with the United States against the rebel states.
British Empire after the Fallout
England had fallen into radiation voiding it of life, luckily, the Royal Family was able to transport into Canada where they were able to govern the empire and prevent the empire from anarchy. With all of England irradiated, they changed their capital to Quebec. They will later be seen allying the rebel states against the U.S.
Russia after the Fallout
With all of the major cities nuked by Germany, Russia had broken down into several countries where they were able to flourish and be free from world powers with the exception of China.
Germany after the Fallout
With half of Berlin nuked, the country fell into anarchy where it would end up into a civil war from the German Loyalists who support the Nazi government vs. the German Separatists who want a change of government. This war would soon cost half of what was left of the population after the nuclear war.
The Age of War Era 1951-1968
By 1951, radiation levels had decreased but were still too high and inhospitable for life to flourish. During the Age of War era, the U.S. had engaged into a civil war against the Republic of California and the Republic of Texas. During this time, they renamed themselves the Loyal States of America and had allied with France to admit the rebel states back to LSA while the rebel states were allied with the British Empire who supported them. This would be the war with the most American casualties than all the wars America has been in.
Second U.S. Civil War 1951-1965
Cause of War
After the destruction of Hawaii, the U.S. government, knowing that it will anger the citizens for not doing anything to help any survivors but let them die, decide to tell them that they had died from the nukes. Unfortunately, it was leaked to the press and revealed it to the press, thus angering the people. The gov. soon executed the press who leaked it and immediately announced it false, but it was too late as too much information was revealed across the country.
Riots and Violence
Riots and revolts of all kinds spread all over the U.S. Approximately 3000 people die within the first 12 hours of violence. Pretty soon terrorism begins to occur at many major cities including D.C. Due to this, FDR declares martial law in attempt to decrease violence. Although it does decrease by 20%, it still isn't enough.
California secedes
On March 23, 1950, California has seceded from USA, along with it takes Arizona and Nevada with it to create the Republic of California. Knowing that other states will secede if nothing is done, the U.S Gov. sends in negotiators to Sacramento, the capital of the RoC in an effort to bring it back to the union.
FDR Dies!!!!!!!!
On April 23, 1950, one month after California seceded, FDR was found dead in his bead, autopsy's reveal that he has died from a massive cerebral hemorrhage. He was soon buried in his hometown at Hyde Park, New York. His successor was soon Vice President Harry S. Truman.
Texas Secedes
On April 27, 1950 a few days after FDR's death, Texas has decided to secede from the union and takes Oklahoma, Arkansas and Louisiana to form the Republic of Texas. A week later, it forms an alliance with RoC and plan to bring New Mexico to their alliance to form a new country. Knowing that RoT would be harder to bring back to the Union, the U.S begins to send a series of threats of invasion if they don't join the Union.
Texas and California ready
After the negotiators have failed to convince the states to come back to the Union, the U.S calls a declaration of war against the rebel states and begin to prepare the army. RoC and RoT take over the military bases in their lands and begin to train the people.
British Empire supports Rebel States
Seeing as the U.S. more aggressive, the British Empire decides to fund and ally with the rebel states. By July 15, 1950 250,000 British soldiers have moved in to RoC and RoT to help them with an additional 500,000 near New York in case of an attack.
France supports U.S.
Seeing as the U.S. desperate and in need of aid, France had created an alliance in declared war on the British Empire and the rebel states. By September 3, 1950 600,000 French Soldiers are stationed in the U.S. with an additional 100,000 troops in Vietnam.
U.S. Prepared
On September 23, 1950, the U.S. had 450,000 soldiers stationed in New York if the British attacked, one million stationed in Oregon and three million stationed in New Mexico to attack from the sides. By New Years Eve, the U.S begins airstriking major cities from Los Angeles, all the way to San Antonio. By early February, the U.S. blockades RoT ports to cut down morale. Fearing it might blockade California, the Royal Navy lands in California just before the U.S navy arrives where the first battle begins.
Battle of Long Island
In March 2, 1951, the U.S navy arrives with 10,000 troops there it meets the royal navy and 5,000 Californian troops, with its mission to blockade California, the navy begins attacking the royal navy with frequent airstrikes and attacks, they soon begin landing troops in Long Island. Although they were outnumbered the royal navy was more stronger and were able to sunk a few U.S. ships such as the U.S.S Arizona, while they were able to fend off the US navy, American troops have successfully landed in Long Island and had a small skirmish with RoC troops but due to lack of training, RoC lost 2,000 troops and allowed the US forces to secure the beach and began using RoC big guns against the royal navy causing the royal navy to retreat with many ships and troops lost, thus giving a decisive victory for the US. Due to this, it has caused them to start their invasion three months earlier and begin to send troops to RoC, RoT and Canada.

Akron, OH - Average retail gasoline prices in Akron have fallen 2.0 cents per gallon in the past week, averaging $2.08/g yesterday, according to GasBuddy's daily survey of 372 gas outlets in Akron. This compares with the national average that has fallen 0.9 cents per gallon in the last week to $2.28/g, according to gasoline price website GasBuddy.com.
Including the change in gas prices in Akron during the past week, prices yesterday were 16.4 cents per gallon higher than the same day one year ago and are 2.2 cents per gallon higher than a month ago. The national average has decreased 0.6 cents per gallon during the last month and stands 24.0 cents per gallon higher than this day one year ago.
According to GasBuddy historical data, gasoline prices on March 27 in Akron have ranged widely over the last five years:
$1.92/g in 2016, $2.41/g in 2015, $3.61/g in 2014, $3.65/g in 2013 and $3.89/g in 2012.
Areas near Akron and their current gas price climate:
Cleveland- $2.11/g, down 2.6 cents per gallon from last week's $2.14/g.
Pittsburgh- $2.51/g, down 0.5 cents per gallon from last week's $2.51/g.
Ohio- $2.12/g, down 6.1 cents per gallon from last week's $2.18/g.
"Remarkably, for a third straight week, average gasoline prices have declined. In fact, for just the first time since 2009, average gasoline prices today stand cheaper than on February 15th- traditionally the day of the lowest gasoline prices of the season," said Patrick DeHaan, senior petroleum analyst for GasBuddy.com.
"This feat has been accomplished for several reasons. First, weak gasoline demand which has kept inventories of winter gasoline far more than adequate. Second, there have been few large scale unexpected refinery outages, and third, crude oil inventories and rising U.S. production have kept oil prices under pressure over the last month. All three of these factors are actively at play and will continue to keep pressure on prices from spiking. More alarming, however, is that while gasoline prices have drifted lower, the gas price spread between stations has been rising, and stands 5% higher nationally versus last year. So while motorists may be feeling less pressure with stable gas prices, that false sense of security may be getting in the way of finding a gas station selling at a far lower price. As always, motorists should be shopping around to be aware of lower priced offerings," DeHaan added.

Do you think what it was that archetypal grabbed your fuss when you first bought your home? Was it the opening way? Was it the way the first amble bowed up to a sociable looking forward door? Was it the breathing space of the neighborhood? Chances are, it was a jumble of these. The miscellaneous bliss you get the impression when you gawp at your quarters from the extracurricular and the be a foil for it holds next to the snooze of the section is what solid estate professionals ring up 'curb appeal'. Now that you're in order to deal in your home, the sound out to ask yourself is, "Does your household have restriction appeal?"
First, clutch a facade at your dwelling house from the most advanced place spike - mayhap from cross-town the road. Take in the frontmost entrance, the driveway, and the yard. Is it captivating to you? Do you come up with it's enough to engender prospective buyers dragging lint in their cars to get a polite look? If not, present are a few things you can do to spiffy your home up to contribute it a tiny more than curb request.
For starters, be paid certain your sward is in good conformation - raw and mowed beside nice, washed edges along any sidewalks or paths. If needed, factory both shrub border and keep hold of them very well qualified. Trim support any anarchistic ligneous plant branches that congest the judgment of the dwelling and/or disqualify glare from upcoming done.

Teenage Australian tennis star Bernard Tomic locked himself in his house in a stand-off with police on Thursday over a traffic dispute involving his high-powered sports car.
Tomic, 19, who has been granted a special exemption from his provisional licence to drive his bright orange Aus$150,000 (US$130,000) BMW M3 to and from tennis training, shut himself in his home after police tried to pull him over.
A police car followed him home with siren blazing after he failed to stop, and officers had to wait outside the house for Tomic to come out, according to the Courier Mail newspaper.
One officer was allowed in and said the tennis star had been issued with two traffic infringement notices relating to his special licence.
Though there was a dispute about the tickets, the officer said Tomic had been "understanding and reasonable."
"There is a determination to be made about conditions in relation to his driving that will be decided at a later time," he added.
Tomic's lawyer Lex Bell said the tennis star "feels he is guiltless" but the matter was "well under investigation and there's nothing further to be said at the moment."
World number 38 Tomic has previously accused police of targeting him when he is out in the high-octane vehicle, and he later emerged to speak to the media, insisting he had done nothing wrong.
"They've given me three tickets and one officer feels like he wants to get me and it's not a good feeling," Tomic said, in comments reported by the AAP news agency.
"I was on a visit doing my stuff and enjoying my day and I had my things all planned, and someone doesn't like that and wants to stop that."
Tomic lost to childhood idol Roger Federer in the Australian Open quarter-finals last weekend but his run boosted his reputation as one of the game's emerging talents.
He was named Thursday in Australia's Davis Cup squad, with captain Pat Rafter commending the teen for his new-found maturity.
"I was very critical of him last year, he wasn't in the right headspace," Rafter said.
"I think the improvements he's made now, he's gone the right direction, and he really impressed me over this summer.... His whole mental well being is going the right direction."

Mr. McReary is a mentioned character in Grand Theft Auto IV.
Mr. McReary was the father of Derrick, Gerald, Patrick, Francis, and Kate McReary, and husband of Maureen McReary. Much like the rest of the McReary family, Mr. McReary also has a criminal story. It can be assumed that he was arrested for murder in or before 1950 and became a fugitive in or before 1961, since his wife Maureen has convictions for Accessory to Murder and Harboring a Fugitive in those years and is stated in the LCPD database to have been a conspirator with him in the 50's and 60's.
According to Packie he was an abusive father and an alcoholic. When Packie and Niko hang out, Packie may open up to Niko, and tell him that he and Gerald were molested by him. He calls his father a "sick pervert" and condemns his memory to "the seventh circle of Hell". Maureen also states that Mr. McReary is most likely in Hell, however, unlike her sons, she seems extremely upset over his death.
- Unlike most of the other characters from the game, he doesn't have an entry in the LCPD database.
- During the mission Harboring a Grudge, it is possible to see a portrait above Maureen McReary's fireplace that shows what Mr. McReary looked like.
- There is a portrait in Oleg Minkov's apartment above his fireplace of Mr. McReary and Maureen McReary as seen in the mission Wrong is Right. This is because in the files, the model fireplace is attached to the picture frame, so when used in Oleg's apartment, the picture went with it.

Ranking The Mighty Morphin Power Ranger Zords
The Power Rangers are no slouches in battle, but when you have to take down a massive pig named Pudgy the size of a skyscraper, well, martial arts just aren't going to cut it. The good news is that the Rangers have the ultra powerful Dinozords at their command to get them out of a jam, and all five can even combine to become the even more powerful Megazord.
There have been numerous versions of the Zords over the years, but the Dinozords (and alumni) from the original series have managed to retain their popularity. Everyone has their favorites, of course, so hit the next slide to see if your favorite Zord took the top spot!
As for the new Zord designs in the upcoming Power Rangers reboot (which currently has a 3.53 out of 5 on ComicBook.com's anticipation rankings), director Dean Israelite recently spoke about their approach to new designs.
"And so everything, you'll notice, is very organic - from the ship to Alpha-5 to Zordan and the suits - there's a very organic nature to them, [down to] the Zords. And the Zords become bio-mechanical in a way - and yes they're going to draw comparisons to Transformers, because they're big dinosaur machines. But, I think if you take a real close look, the designs are actually very different, and we are trying to be really focused on these organic sort of shapes and bigger pieces to these machines so they don't feel ... hard to decipher. So that bio-mechanical philosophy entered into everything that we were trying to design."
"Saban's Power Rangers follows five ordinary high school kids who must become something extraordinary when they learn that their small town of Angel Grove – and the world – is on the verge of being obliterated by an alien threat. Chosen by destiny, our heroes quickly discover that they are the only ones who can save the planet. But to do so they will have to overcome their real-life issues and band together as the Power Rangers before it is too late."
Power Rangers stars Bryan Cranston (Zordon), Elizabeth Banks (Rita Repulsa), Naomi Scott (Kimberly/Pink Ranger), David Denman (Sam Scott), Becky G. (Trini/Yellow Ranger), Sarah Grey (Amanda), RJ Cyler (Billy Cranston/Blue Ranger), Emily Maddison (Rebecca), Ludi Lin (Zack Taylor/Black Ranger), and Dacre Montgomery (Jason Lee Scott/Red Ranger).
Power Rangers is set to land in theaters on March 24, 2017.

Program Overview
Scholars will spend the first week of the program in an academic orientation where they will become familiar and engage with the University of Michigan Campus and Ann Arbor community and travel to Pellston, MI for a field orientation to explore northern Michigan and the University's Biological Station. During the remaining 7 weeks scholars will work full time on a research project. Scholars will gain knowledge and develop skills working closely on campus with faculty from the School for Environment and Sustainability (SEAS).
Year One Research:
Year one provides scholars with an introduction to qualitative and quantitative research methods. Students will assist SEAS faculty and researchers on their ongoing research projects. SEAS faculty engage in interdisciplinary research that directly contributes to the protection of the Earth's resources. They gather skills from multiple disciplines both in the social and natural sciences in order to address issues in sustainability, agroforestry, environmental justice, political ecology, ecosystem processes, aquaculture systems, forest ecology, and geospatial analysis. Please view student profiles for previous research topics.
Conservation in Action:
A large component of our program is experiencing conservation in action. We will travel to places in Michigan to speak with professionals and stakeholders in the environmental field. Scholars will see where their interests in conservation can take them and the impact they can have in the environmental field. Site visits will vary from year to year.
Examples of Past Field Trips During Year One
- University of Michigan Biological Station
- Huron River
- Tahquamenon Falls State Park
- Mackinac Island State Park
- Matthaei Botanical Gardens
- UM Campus Farm
- Nichols Arboretum
- D-Town Farms
- Warren Dunes State Park
- Lake St. Clair
- Pictured Rocks State Park
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion:
Scholars will also partake in weekly speaker series, graduate and career workshops, and student led seminars discussing diversity and equity in conservation. Guided by program staff, mentors and field instructors, scholars will examine concepts around power, privilege and identity, and how these forces impact historical, contemporary and emerging challenges within the field of conservation. DDCSP UM staff and mentors are committed to creating respectful and safe spaces for these conversations. Scholars are expected to actively participate using what they learn from the assigned readings, their field work, and their own lived experiences.
Year Two Internships:
In year two students will have the choice of joining a conservation/environmental non governmental organization or governmental agency in Ann Arbor and the Detroit Metropolitan area and complete a 7 week internship or build off their research skills from the previous year in the lab. Students will have the chance to work directly with conservation and environmental professionals to develop a professional network. We also provide second year scholars with the opportunity to participate in a free GRE preparation course during the second summer. Field sites and trips may vary from year to year.
Potential Field Site Visits and Field Trips Year Two
- Pictured Rocks State Park
- Detroit River International Wildlife Refuge
Second Year Retreat: This is an opportunity to introduce scholars to marine conservation issues in a tropical setting. This will complement the conservation issues students are exposed to in the Great Lakes Region. Our destination retreat will focus on sites like the Virgin islands, Puerto Rico or the Southeastern U.S.

The 'Great Man' Theory of Foreign Policy
By Ernest R. May;
Published: April 3, 1994
DIPLOMACY By Henry Kissinger. Illustrated. 912 pp. New York: Simon & Schuster. $35.
WHEN reading Winston Churchill's "World Crisis, 1914-1918," Arthur Balfour called it "an autobiography disguised as a history of the world." Henry Kissinger's "Diplomacy" is a book of maxims disguised as a history of statecraft. The maxims are often splendid. The history is not.
After a brief introduction, "Diplomacy" opens with an essay contrasting Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson -- the Realpolitiker and the moralist. It then backs up to Cardinal Richelieu, France's chief minister in the early 17th century, and marches through the aftermath of the Napoleonic wars, the Bismarckian era and the two world wars. Though half of the book concerns the cold war, little is autobiographical. Only three chapters cover the early 1970's, when Mr. Kissinger was the President's national security assistant, then Secretary of State. Except in a few anecdotes, these chapters, too, pose as history. "Nixon and his advisers" substitutes for "I" or "we."
"Diplomacy" calls to mind Machiavelli's "Discourses." Machiavelli also commented on history -- that of the Roman Republic. He mistook details and distorted Roman history in the large. A scholar at a Welsh university analyzed "Discourses" and concluded, according to Bernard Crick, the editor of the Penguin Classics edition, that Machiavelli "could hardly have hoped for a pass degree." We do not read "Discourses" to learn about Rome, however. We read the book now for what it tells about Machiavelli himself and for its wisdom. Future generations will read "Diplomacy" for comparable reasons.
Mr. Kissinger is an important historical figure. Only four other Secretaries of State were molders of United States foreign policy -- John Quincy Adams, Charles Evans Hughes, George Marshall and Dean Acheson. Mr. Kissinger's mammoth autobiography (2,750 pages and still not complete) is designed to shape what future historians write. ("Let us leave hindsight to history," Churchill once said, "that history which I am now, myself . . . writing.") It also has some of the literary quality of testimony prepared for delivery under oath. "Diplomacy" is more self-revealing.
"Diplomacy" discloses the depth of Mr. Kissinger's reverence for both power and analysis. It is "great man" history. It focuses on particular statesmen, not on forces or trends. (It mentions almost no women, though Margaret Thatcher does win an admiring reference or two.) Beginning with Richelieu, its heroes calculate and manipulate balances of power. Mr. Kissinger remarks that Richelieu's opponents, the Hapsburgs, were "men of principle" and "therefore quite defenseless." After other states adopted Richelieu's approach, he writes, "France lost the advantage of having adversaries constrained by moral considerations."
Mr. Kissinger scorns or dismisses most people who thought in other terms. William Ewart Gladstone, Britain's moralistic 19th-century Prime Minister, he writes contemptuously, "insisted that Christian decency and respect for human rights ought to be the guiding lights of British foreign policy, not the balance of power and the national interest." He is equally critical of those who let domestic politics dictate foreign policy. Of France's 19th-century President-Emperor, Napoleon III (and perhaps elliptically of President Jimmy Carter), Mr. Kissinger observes that he "conducted his foreign policy in the style of modern political leaders who measure their success by the reaction of the television evening news" and thus "made himself a prisoner of the purely tactical."
Mr. Kissinger applauds anyone who approached international politics analytically, whatever the results. He writes charitably, for example, of the men who advised Presidents John F. Kennedy and Lyndon B. Johnson on Vietnam. Though he says they got the United States into a hopeless war from which "Nixon and his advisers" arranged honorable extrication, he nevertheless praises his predecessors as "gluttons for analysis." He faults them only for failing to develop "criteria to assess a challenge so at variance with American experience and American ideology."
Mr. Kissinger even admits admiration for Stalin and the tyrants of Beijing because of their coolheadedness. Stalin, he says, "was indeed a monster; but in the conduct of international relations, he was the supreme realist -- patient, shrewd and implacable, the Richelieu of his period." Of the Chinese: Mao, Zhou and Deng "reflected a common tradition of painstaking analysis and the distillation of the experiences of an ancient country with an instinct for distinguishing between the permanent and the tactical." Mr. Kissinger is impatient with Hitler because he "operated by instinct rather than analysis."
Yet Mr. Kissinger does not revere only analysis focused on power. He holds it equally important that analysis take account of values. In the 1950's, while still on the Harvard faculty, he wrote "A World Restored," a book starring Prince Metternich. In "Diplomacy," Metternich remains a hero. More than in the earlier book, however, it is because of Metternich's understanding of factors other than power. The long period of peace after 1815 was due, Mr. Kissinger declares, to "a sense of shared values. There was not only a physical equilibrium, but a moral one."

So I'm not an SQL junkie or anything like that, but we provide our consulting service to clients and we keep track on the time we spend through Spiceworks, so we need to be able to generate a simple report that will basically be laid out like.
START {Pick start date}
END {Pick end date}
CLIENT {Dropdown of our clients}, pick one.
The report should generate a list of tickets, and time spent on each, possibly a column for purchases, and then total at the end, the amount of time spent and amount of purchases, so a final line would be
Total Tickets: 16 Time Spent: 6h30m Purchases: $950.27
This topic was created during version 5.2.

I think I only have one ticket costing report shared, but perhaps if you take a look at this and see if it could be modified to work for you. One potential problem with sql reports is they don't allow parameters right now, so you might need to modify the report between runs or set up the report differently.

Computing Technologies is an IT service provider.
Thanks, I see how he uses this to get the sums.
I'm wondering if there's any easy way to sum up a total t the bottom rather than the right and only between the specified dates with a drop down for our client?
If not it looks like our reporting user is going to have to manually add up time and costs on everything :(
Oct 6, 2011 at 3:49 UTC
Probably the best way to get a total at the bottom is to export to Excel and use that to put in the grand total. Otherwise, perhaps a carefully crafted union query could put the total at the bottom.

- Bowerstone, the capital of Albion, has appeared in all Fable games to date. However, it has changed drastically in the 600-odd years that have passed. Here are my theories on how Bowerstone came to be what it is today, and where the districts may be in relation to each other.
In Fable I, you would exit the Guild, and turn right at the top of the rise in Lookout Point, and cross the east-west river into Bowerstone South. You could then continue through Bowerstone North and leave the town by crossing another east-west waterway outside Bowerstone Jail. An initial issue with this is that 500 years later, Bowerstone had no east-west river to its south side at all. The river you cross as you enter Bowerstone Market is a south-north river, which – logic suggests – turns into the east-west river you cross as you leave Bowerstone Old Town. Perhaps then, to accomodate the development of Bowerstone, the initial east-west river was diverted to the north to join with the existing waterway north of the town.
Another theory is that the area that was Bowerstone Quay, which is on a north-south/south-north stretch of water, became Bowerstone Market. This may be more likely geographically as it coincides correctly with a south-north waterway. However, this creates an inconsistency with Bowerstone North; it has been stated that the Castle was built on the site of Bowerstone Manor. The Manor is northeast of the Quay, but the castle is northwest of Market.
If the castle was indeed built on the site of the manor, then that would place the rest of Fable I's Bowerstone much further to the west than the river. Bowerstone Quay, which would then be southwest of the future castle site, would also be on the coast, rather than on a river as it actually appears to be. The location further west would match appropriately with the distance travelled west of Bower Lake to get there in Fable II, but does not explain why you go north to get there from the Guild in Fable I. The only way I can see of explaining that is to retcon it and say that the distance from the Guild Exit to Lookout Point is actually much longer that it seemed in Fable I, or alternatively that the Guild Exit in Lookout Point is actually a long way west of the main Guild buildings, and is a door into Guild grounds rather than the Guild itself.
Essentially, I am unable to completely solve the inconsistencies between Fable and Fable II, due to the numerous issues that arise when taking one point over another.
Fable II's Bowerstone to Fable III's Bowerstone is less of an issue, but there is one district in Fable III that just doesn't work at all – Old Quarter. First of all however, it is necessary to orient the Castle, as it can be seen from most districts of Bowerstone in both games. Lucien's tower (for want of a better name) sticks out of the castle in an east-north-east direction, if the orientation of the maps in Fable II is to be believed. (And it may as well be, as they appear to be logical consistent with each other.)
Old Quarter, then. If you look towards the castle from Old Quarter, the angle of the tower puts you northeast of the castle. However, if you stand at the back of the Castle gardens and look down, all you can see is Industrial. Also, you leave Market going south to get to Old Quarter, and going west to get to the castle. This would suggest that Old Quarter was southwest of the castle; but from this angle, you wouldn't see the tower at the castle at all.
Old Quarter and Industrial also appear to be quite close together, considering the relative distance between those two and the distance between each of them and the castle. In addition, as you leave Old Quarter and head towards Industrial, you can see Industrial's buildings relatively closely.
If you place Old Quarter north of the castle, a possible reason for leaving Market in a southerly direction is so that you can drop down to a lower level of the city and pass underneath the Market-Castle road.
The next issue regards Fable II's Old Town and Fable III's Industrial. In Fable II, you leave Market on a north-bound path from the town square to get to Old Town. Old Town also appears to be by the coast, as if you stand on the bridge at the north end, you can see the sea past the city walls. Industrial is also on the coast, and initially I thought perhaps it was just further round to the southwest than Old Town. However, that idea hits a snag – to get to Industrial from Market, you follow the river to the north. The river, however, is east of the path to Old Town. I think then the most likely scenario is that Old Town has become Industrial. The general course of the river supports this theory, as there is an obvious kink in the path of the river outside Old Town, and there is also a kink in the river between the factories in Industrial. The relative orientation and positioning of the coastline and the castle also support this idea.
The final region is the cemetery. There is no particular reason to believe it no longer exists in Bowerstone, as there is a lot of city that just doesn't get visited. The only issue is where it may be in relation to Industrial and Old Quarter. The first possibility is that it lies on the hill between them, but the encroachment of the industrial buildings at the edge of Old Quarter may render this unlikely. The second possibility is that it lies on the hillside past Old Quarter, and the third is that it can be found somewhere between Old Quarter and the castle. An issue with the third idea is that it wouldn't easily match its direction from Industrial comparative to its direction from Old Town if they are indeed the same place.
