Inside ASIS
Travis has been an active member of ASIS since 1968, and she has served in a number of editorial and programmatic roles throughout the organization. She is currently a member of the Editorial Board of the Journal of the American Society for Information Science.
Richard B. Hill, publisher of the Bulletin and ASIS executive director, says the decision to appoint Travis to the role was based in large part on the broad range of expertise – both editorial and substantive – that she can bring to the magazine during this exciting era.
"Not only are we eager to continue the growth of the Bulletin in its more familiar print version," Hill says, "but we are also experimenting with ways to make the electronic Bulletin a viable member service and resource. Irene will contribute a great deal to those efforts."
Travis began her career after graduate school as a faculty member at the University of Maryland College of Library and Information Service, specializing in subject retrieval of information and cataloging. She subsequently joined a Washington, DC-area defense contractor, where she remained for eight years as a consultant to government agencies in subject retrieval systems and library automation and as a researcher in an R&D group. During that period, her interests grew to include the application of artificial intelligence to subject description and retrieval, and technology forecasting.
In 1988 she joined the Information, Technology and Facilities Policy Staff of the World Bank. As a manager and customer representative, she worked intensively with the problems of electronic document management, including records management and archives, and in the introduction of other new technologies, such as the Internet.
"The field of information science has entered another exciting era in which ASIS has an important role in both encouraging information professionals to understand the technical changes underway and helping them relate new technologies to the customers they and we serve," Travis says. "The Bulletin has always been an important tool for ASIS, and I'm proud to have the opportunity to expand its coverage of the field, while experimenting with ways to compete in the electronic realm that is emerging."
Travis is currently based in Austin, Texas, where she returned last year as an adjunct lecturer at the Graduate School of Library and Information Science at the University of Texas and as a consultant. She holds an MLS and Ph.D. in librarianship (with a concentration in information science) from the University of California at Berkeley.
"Among other goals, I plan to capitalize on the synergy that exists between JASIS and its research bent and the Bulletin's practical, news-oriented approach to achievements and advances in information science," Travis notes. "Many opportunities and challenges exist, and I am excited to take them on."
It seems that issues of intellectual property rights, especially in terms of copyright, are beginning to come up as a regular problem in terms of the Journal of the American Society for Information Science (JASIS). The rapidly changing scene of information technology, especially electronic publishing, has only exacerbated the problem. Let me refer you to the special topic issue on electronic publishing (JASIS, v. 47, n. 9, September, 1996, especially Linda Schamber's article, "What is a do cument? Rethinking the Concept in Uneasy Times," pp. 669-671).
Several scholarly societies, such as the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) and the Institute for Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE), have developed policies regarding copyright. What should such a policy be for the American Society for Information Science (ASIS) regarding JASIS (remembering that JASIS is published by a commercial publisher, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. for ASIS).
Some of the issues that arise include:

News from ASIS Institutional Members
New York Metro Area's Only Ph.D. in Information Studies Receives State Approval
The only doctoral program in information studies in the New York metropolitan area will be offered this fall by the Palmer School of Library and Information Science at the C.W. Post Campus of Long Island University in Brookville, New York. The program addresses a demand that has grown since Columbia University closed its School of Library Service in 1990.
Paul LeClerc, president and CEO of the New York Public Library, says the goals of the Palmer School's new Ph.D. program are "critical to ensuring that libraries everywhere have the expertise to guide their users through the increasingly complex and technology-driven world of information access."
Students in the new program will study in one of two areas: information organization and access or information studies and services.
Clifford A. Lynch, immediate past president of ASIS and director of library automation at the University of California, has been named executive director of the Coalition of Networked Information (CNI), effective in July. He succeeds Paul Evan Peters, CNI's founder, who died suddenly in November 1996.
Lynch has been at the University of California since 1979 where he oversees university-wide library automation and inter-networking activities. Internationally known for his development of Melvyl, an information system which serves all of the campuses of the University of California, Lynch has played a key role in the development of information standards. Especially noteworthy is his work on Z39.50, which addresses the need for interoperability among information retrieval systems.
Lynch holds a bachelors of arts in mathematics and computer science from Columbia College; a master of sciences in computer science from the Columbia University School of Engineering; and a Ph.D. in computer science from the University of California at Berkeley.
Regarding his appointment as CNI's Executive Director, Lynch said "It's a great honor to be able to build on the work that my friend and colleague Paul Peters has done on behalf of our whole community, and to be able to lead CNI into the 21st century."
In presenting the certificate, Ambassador Swanee Hunt and Helena Finn, head of USIS in Vienna, noted that Levine was responsible for numerous donations from U.S. libraries and companies. Levine accepted the award on behalf of ASIS and acknowledged the support being provided by its membership.
Heather was membership chair of the Minnesota Chapter of ASIS in 1989-90 and treasurer from 1990-1993. Roy Tally, Systems Advisory Council, state of Minnesota, says Heather "is remembered by all for her cheerful competence and gentle nature." Heather did much to strengthen the chapter's recordkeeping system and communication with ASIS headquarters.
Nina Platt, librarian at the Office of Minnesota Attorney General Library, says, "Heather was a loving mother, a dedicated librarian and a great friend. Her quick wit and bright smile will be missed by all."
Letters and cards of remembrance can be sent to The Family of Heather Newman, 26 Sawmill Drive, Penfield, NY 14526. Memorials, if desired, should be made to the American Cancer Society.
Each year ASIS sponsors two of the most highly regarded meetings in the information field. The Annual Meeting focuses on the breadth of activities and endeavors of the information community with technical sessions covering virtually all of the specialties of the information profession. The Mid-Year Meeting, smaller and more intense, tackles a key area of development in the industry and presents in-depth technical and practical perspectives on the implications of the development.
The 1997 Annual Meeting, for which program information will be available to all ASIS members shortly, will focus in part on Digital Collections: Implications for Users, Funders, Developers and Maintainers, but will also address other topics from research, technical and application perspectives.
On the following pages, preliminary calls for participation invite membership involvement in the two 1998 ASIS meetings.
In response to mature markets, increasing global competition, fast technological development and decreasing resources, many organizations are adopting collaborative work practices to solve complex problems and produce innovative products. Many organizations have projects that include experts in telecommunications networks, information systems design, human-computer interaction and end users. To collaborate effectively, participants explore and integrate knowledge and work practices from diverse domains to reach an understanding of the work process and expected outcomes. Participants' unique past experiences, specialized work languages and differences in work patterns, culture, perceptions of quality and success, organizational priorities and constraints make this process difficult. Collaborative theories, strategies, outcomes and technologies will be highlighted at this meeting.
We invite papers on a variety of topics related to collaboration, including (but not limited to) the following topics:
Technologies That Support Collaboration
Collaborative Work
Collaboration in Society
Collaboration in Education
Information Seeking as a Collaborative Process
Theories of Collaboration
These themes will be elaborated by keynote and invited speakers and through refereed papers, panels, technical sessions, demonstrations and other presentations. You are invited to submit a proposal for a presentation, as outlined below.

As the Internet spans the globe, we are beginning to see the growth of a truly global economy fueled by the exchange of information and information-based products. In this new economy there is an ever-increasing and critical need to provide access to the information available. Information and knowledge are rapidly becoming available to anyone, located anywhere, at any time.
Information science has provided many of the key elements in making this global information accessible to those who need it. The 1998 ASIS Annual Meeting will examine information access and what it means in a global information economy. The topics that will be examined include the following:
Producing and delivering information resources.
What are the social effects of global information access?
What new structures for information organization and access will emerge?
How will people access and use information?
These themes will be explored by keynote and invited speakers and through refereed papers, panels and technical sessions. We invite participation through submission of papers and proposals for panels and technical sessions on topics associated with the general themes outlined above.

1998 ASIS Annual Meeting
Information Access in the Global Information Economy

DEFIANCE, Ohio - Mason Roth made a pair of free throws with .7 seconds remaining to push the Defiance Yellow Jackets Men's Basketball team past Albion College 50-48 in the Purple and Gold Tournament semifinals on Sunday night. With the win, the Yellow Jackets (8-1) advance to play Ohio Wesleyan (8-2) in the finals Monday night at 7 p.m.
With the score tied at 48, Albion turned the ball over on a shot clock violation with six seconds remaining in the contest. Roth (McComb, Ohio/McComb) worked an opening into the lane and was fouled on a layup attempt in the final second.
Following a timeout by Albion after Roth made the second free throw, the Britons were able to get the ball in, but were unable to get a shot off before time expired on the ensuing in-bounds play.
The win improved Defiance's record to 36-3 in the opening round of the Purple and Gold Tournament. The Yellow Jackets are 21-14 all-time in the championship game and have won at least one game in all 39 years of the tournament.
Wade Wooley (Wauseon, Ohio/Wauseon HS) had a career night for the Yellow Jackets. The sophomore finished with his first career double-double on career highs in points and rebounds. Wooley had 10 points and 13 rebounds in the game.
Despite a season low in points, the Yellow Jackets never trailed by more than one point in the game. Defiance took an early lead and fought off Albion for much of the first half and the two teams went into the halftime break with Yellow Jackets carrying only a two point lead.
Albion took the lead on its first possession of the second half with a three pointer, but it was short lived as Ryan Hicks (Port Clinton, Ohio/Port Clinton) answered back with two of his team high 18 on the night. Hicks also finished with six rebounds and four assists.
Similar to the first half, Defiance was unable to build much of a lead as Albion was able to answer Defiance's runs with points of their own. Albion tied the game seven different times in the 40 minutes of play.
Drew Frizell (Smithville, Ohio/Smithville) and Travis Schomaeker (Ottawa, Ohio/Ottawa-Glendorf) made back-to-back threes for the Yellow Jackets to give Defiance its biggest lead of the night at six with 6:57 remaining in the contest.
Schomaeker finished with nine points in the game. The junior also had two rebounds and an assist in 35 minutes.
Kent Tietje (Deshler, Ohio/Patrick Henry) had the only other two points on the night for Defiance. The junior also finished with a career high six rebounds.
For the first time all season, Defiance did not out-rebound its opponent. The Yellow Jackets had 39 rebounds, one shy of Albion's 40 in the game.
The Yellow Jackets had 12 assists in the game to eight turnovers while Albion finished with four assists and eight turnovers.
Defiance had six points off Albion's turnovers and were 6-of-8 from the free-throw line in the game. Albion finished with four points of turnovers and were 4-of-13 from the free-throw line.
The Yellow Jackets will now set their sights on Ohio Wesleyan, who defeated No. 15 Marietta in the other semi-final game 79-74. Both Defiance and Ohio Wesleyan received votes in the most recent top 25 poll. The Yellow Jackets are 13-7 all-time against Ohio Wesleyan.

The Atmospheric Science group is composed of scientists who share a common interest in using the unique vantage point of the polar regions to study the physical, chemical and dynamical processes of the atmosphere. We consider ourselves lucky to be working in Alaska during a time of unprecedented concern about the climate of the Arctic and the wider world.
The students in the Atmospheric Sciences research group at the Geophysical institute captured it well when they chose the phrase, "Studying at one of the few places where homogeneous nucleation occurs naturally."
The Atmospheric Sciences research group's interests cover a broad spectrum of topics in atmospheric sciences, with our research results often bearing directly on societal issues surrounding climate variability and change. Many of the group also maintain research interests in other regions of the globe. We strive to understand the polar atmosphere and its role within the earth system. Our projects utilize a variety of observational, modeling and remote sensing techniques and can be divided into several topical areas:
- Atmospheric remote sensing
- Atmospheric chemistry
- Chemistry transport modeling
- Cloud/aerosol physics
- Climate variability and change
- Hydrometeorology
- Mesoscale modeling
- Meteorology of the middle and upper atmosphere
Our location in the sub-arctic positions us perfectly for arctic research. Additionally, the local environment provides an excellent location for observation of unique scientific phenomena and outdoor exploration.
Fairbanks' location allows for many opportunities for winter and summer recreation in a land of unspoiled beauty. Visit the Atmospheric Sciences Research page to learn more about ongoing and past projects.

The Economic Opportunity Act II has hit a roadblock, but the bill's main sponsor, state Sen. Raymond Lesniak (D-Union), says it's only temporary.
Seen as the follow-up bill to the Economic Opportunity Act, the state's business incentives overhaul signed into law in September, the new legislation was released from the Senate Economic Growth Committee last month and advanced to the Senate Budget Committee.
But Lesniak says the bill hit a wall in committee due to a lack of support from the Christie administration for one of its major components, the Garden State Film and Digital Media Jobs Act, which expands the state's tax credits for film and digital media productions.
The rest of the bill, Lesniak says, features elements he believes already have "universal support." Those elements include, among other things, a $200 million tax credit for the redevelopment and rehabilitation of low- and moderate-income housing and a relaxation of the requirement that a developer set aside 20 percent of new units for affordable housing purposes.
Rather than risk a Christie veto on the entire bill due to opposition on the film incentives portion, Lesniak chose to "break it into two parts." One part will deal with the film tax credits and the other will tackle affordable housing and other development incentives.
Lesniak says both will be introduced in the early part of the next legislative session. In the meantime, he will work to "gather support for" the film incentives and continue to polish the second bill.
Christie signs incentives overhaul

I went to my friend�s house and we
enjoyed the whole evening. Then I came home and went to bed. I almost
forgot about my new site!
The next morning, I started my
computer to check my mail. I was totally shocked to know that I made 23
sales of $67.00 (That's $1541 in 18 hours)! I couldn't believe my eyes,
so I logged in to my ClickBank account to confirm it.
In all, within 15 days of using
this system, I made a sales total of 78 at $67.00 each and orders are
still coming in. You can see my ClickBank Stats below.

After the great success I
had with my site by using this system, I started thinking "How can I
help my online friends, so that, with a minimum of effort, they can
benefit from this amazing system as well?"
From my experience, if
you tried to make this system work on your own, it would require a lot
of time and hard work. You would need to buy multiple products, create
packages, write sales copy, upload everything to your site, setup a
payment gateway, and also handle customer support.
As I know that everyone
can't be as computer handy as I am, I also know it would be difficult
to manage and organize all these things in an efficient manner. So, I
decided to set up this system for your use and, finally, after 6
months, I completed it and it is ready for you to use.
Once again, I gave this
system a try, to make sure it works for everyone, and you can see the
results below:
How This
System Works?
Okay, you're probably
wondering how this system works. Let me explain it to you.
If You are an Internet
Marketer, You're intelligent enough to know that "One Time Offers" are
Hot these days. Do you remember a time when you signed up for a free website
and just after signup you saw an Incredible offer you couldn't resist
to buy. These offers are called "One Time Offers" or "OTO"
and it's hidden goldmine of your site.
Now You too can use the
hidden power of "One Time Offers" on your site.
using this breakthrough system you can put Special "One Time
Offer" to your website without setting up a sales page, download page,
payment gateway and do customer support.
OTO Gold Mine is
a completely automatic system. All you have to do is join,
FREE of charge, copy a small piece of code, and paste it into your site
and you are done. That�s it! It takes just 15 Minutes of your time
and you need not be a "Rocket Scientist" or know any of
"Newton's Laws" to use this amazing system.
Using OTOGoldMine System is
As Easy As
Join for Free and Setup a Campaign from
the members area.
Copy your Campaign code and paste on your
You are done! Now this system will do the
rest of the work.
It's Really
As Simple As That!
Just Remember, OTOGoldMine.com is
about setting up a landing page to
promote my own products as an affiliate.
about setting up hundreds of web sites
to place adsense ads.
about using adword to drive traffic
to your adsense site.
some BS Hyped
up Junk that will never work for you.
some garbage
product that refers you to purchase other garbage products.
a Matrix, MLM, or Pyramid Scheme or
anything else like that.
So quit guessing and get the system for FREE.
This is the Best way I've found so far.
just got my membership to your OTOGoldmine and wanted to write you to
let you know that I'm very impressed with this new product. I wasn't
sure what to expect, but was looking for ways to monetize some of my
other sites and this is the best way I've found so far.
The OTO's can be used anywhere and are practically written for you.
They convert well too!
Great job on a fantastic product. Now I'm on the lookout for more
things to offer my niche audience but when I find them I can just plug
them right in!

problem is that creating these offers takes time, effort and resources
which many people simply don't have.
Your ingenious system allows people to simply make a few selections,
paste some code on their site and cash the checks. It really is that simple so you're not dumbing
it down. You should be charging an arm and a leg for this

that is will help hundreds of people to reach their dreams of finally

Earlier this year I built lists of over 16,500 people before I put up
my first OTO page. I bet that I have lost well over $50,000 this year

ONE of The Most Profitable Systems
Ever Created For Marketers Out There.
This is surely ONE of the most profitable systems ever created
for Marketers out there without their own One-Time-Offer page or for
those who feel difficult coming out with one.
Alright for people reading this, I've just tried it myself and it
really can't get simpler than doing these 4 simple steps:
Click "Create A Campaign".
Click on OTO package you like (it's already prepared).
Fill in the redirect link if people choose to continue to the next
And lastly, put the OTO link into wherever you want to direct your
visitors whether it's after signup, buying a product from you and so
If you wanna get a short-cut to owning a profit-pulling One-Time-Offer
with good copy, then this is for you.

I'll Bet This Will be a Wonderful Income Stream For Many People...
Wow! Just like you do every time - You have created a great new
product and a great new affiliate income stream for all of us!
I am so excited about your new project for two reasons. First, I sent a
notice to all my students of my Jet Fighter Internet Training Program
telling them to go and get your new offering, because they would get
something great, and I wanted my members to see how a real master of
internet marketing operates!
And second, My goodness Raamakant, what a conversion rate your
site has!
Here in just the first couple of hours, I've gotten notices of $500.00
in commissions from you! I'll bet this will be a wonderful income
stream for many people, thanks to you.
The "Just stick in a piece of code" concept where you do all the work
was a great idea, and makes it so that any one can easily earn
affiliate commissions from you.
Thanks again, for the great program and the great additional way for
all of us to make money online. I like what you have done so much
that I've actually changed my company home page to feature it!!!

I Just Wish you Had Brought this out a Year Ago.
I can't believe how simple you've made this! I know first
hand how using OTO's can explode your profits online but you've just
made it so much easier!
Usually I'd have to go and find products to sell, get the resale rights
to them, write the sales copy and then put up the whole page. Not any
more :-)
The best thing is that you don't even need a product or a website to
use this! I just wish you had brought this out a year ago,
it would have saved me a lot of work and made me a LOT more money.
Congratulations on an amazing site!

I Wished I Came up with these Ideas!
Your OTO Goldmine membership site is really creative. It
is a great membership site that allow members to build their own list

think that incorporating Clickbank products within the membership area
is an excellent idea. I wished I came up with these ideas!

recommending OTO Goldmine to my members.

You have turned useless, "dead" webpages into superpowered

"OTO Goldmine" is Unique!"
I'm a professional webmaster - and guess how long it took me to build
my last big OTO? The best part of a day! It would have taken less
experienced people much longer than that.
"OTO Goldmine" is unique. I've tested your system
thoroughly, and everything works perfectly. That's not something you
find on many sites!
I can see no reason why a complete "newbie" can't use your
powerful OTO system and set up an OTO in just minutes. There are no
longer any reasons why every internet marketer can't start to exploit
the power of the OTO.
I'll certainly be recommending all of my Pupils at my Newbies School of
Internet Marketing to sign up right away.

The Ease of use and the Quality Products Included Make Your System one

You Have Really Created Something Special Here...
Wow, you've been a busy boy haven't you?
I just wanted to write and tell you how impressed I am with your new
OTO Goldmine system. You have really created something special here...
Never before has it been this easy for new and experienced
internet marketers alike to set up profit-pulling "One Time Offers" and
cash in on this powerful marketing technique.
It took me less than 15 minutes to sign up and copy the special OTO
Goldmine code on to just ONE of my websites and my first 3 sales came
in almost instantly :o)
Fantastic system Raamakant, I am going to urge all my subscribers to
grab a free OTO Goldmine account ASAP before you come to your senses
and start charging for it!
Your friend,

yet extremely powerful. I like it!

time offer with high conversion rates.

Your Wonderful Service Provides Both...
Internet marketer needs a great oto and more importantly one that
converts well...
Your wonderful Service provides both...
Plus every marketer knows that putting together a one-time-offer is
extremely time consuming.... So any new marketer who sees this
offer should grab the opportunity with both hands and stop leaving
globules of cash on the table. Well done Raamakant.

It's Simple, Easy and More than Everything Else...
know for sure that OTO's bring-in tons of sales. If you've not setup

places I can setup an OTO. I had not thought about these real
money-spinners! All the best,
Raam Anand
This is One of the Easiest to Implement Yet Most Brilliant Plans...
you Raamakant, for demonstrating two things to me:
1. You are a brilliant marketer and dedicated businessman.
2. You are a trustworthy JV Partner.
How else can I describe the friend who pursued me with the deed to a
"Goldmine" and simply wanted to give it to me...for LIFE? He wouldn't
let me pass this up because he didn't want me leaving any more money on
the table.
Once I saw its simplicity and power, I immediately picked up and
implemented one of his "nuggets", and I will begin "mining gold"
from the moment the site goes live. This is one of the easiest to
implement yet most brilliant plans for utilizing One Time Offers I have
ever seen.
No wonder Raamakant named it "OTOGoldMine". Don't make the mistake I
ALMOST did and leave this page empty handed. Grab your "deed"!
Thank you, Raamakant -- for OTOGoldMine and for your persistence.

Vikings Counting on Guion but Knee Injury Persists
EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. (AP) - The Minnesota Vikings were excited about the progress Letroy Guion was making in his transition from one defensive tackle spot to the other.
He showed up in ideal shape, had a positive attitude about the new position and hustled all over the field.
There's one problem. He's hurt now and might not play the rest of the preseason.
Guion sprained the posterior cruciate ligament in his right knee on Aug. 11 during the first series of the game at San Francisco. He sat out against Buffalo last Friday, but he was back on the field this week wearing a brace until he aggravated the injury in practice on Tuesday. Guion watched from the side on Wednesday wearing a white compression sleeve over his knee, and he won't play this week against San Diego.

Watch Episodes
R.I.P Stan Lee :(
@Schrunsekris Personally, in my opinion, if you do not compare the two shows this one only has one major problem that really needs to be toned down to make it a decent show. If they didn't try to club you over the head every 5 minutes with the feminist agenda thing, it would be fine. The story is somewhat interesting and two of the sisters are likeable. The third sister would be likeable, like I said, if she just toned down the feminist agenda crap. And no, I'm not a sexist as some other idiot called me for not liking that. Even the old charmed pushed the feminist agenda, but they did it in subtle ways and didn't try to club you over the head with it and it was more enjoyable because of that.
holy fuck - THEY ARE TALKING !!!
que "Final Season" - please end on a high note and not crap.
I know, everyone is complaining how lame this show is in comparison to the original Charmed which I loved and have the complete series on DVD at home...but I really think it is not that bad... if you don´t compare it ;)
dude when did they say the doctor couldn't canonically be a woman?
Jz Hellfist get a grip on your complaining about feminism and politics in Comic TV Shows.... nobody complained when the bold rich white guy was the bad guy in Superman (who clearly would have been a republican in real life) lol. Supergirl is a girl and fights for the good that includes surpressed and wrongly treated people, so this season is about "illegal" aliens, next season maybe a fat rich evil man is the main villain again who enslaves aliens .... who cares? TV Shows are full with stereotypes....Germans are Nazis or wear Lederhosen, Russians are cruel spies who deal with weapons, south americans are ruthless druglords and asian are superevil Ninjas... thats how it was in the past and will be over and over again .... I try to stay out of arguments here, but when I read your whining I just think - STOP watching the show when you can´t deal with it.... Get over it!!!!
any1 know of a goo movie site?
ANYONE know of anysites where i can get movies?? the ones i used are all down
Well part of a team is better than none, hope they get back to the full team at some point.
I wish they had not made the doctor a woman as they had to change cannon to do it, the master well he was sealing bodies to regen so he was fine. But despite that i love the actress she has many of the qualities i missed from the older doctors of days gone by, i would have watched her in her own spin off as a female time lord. The writing is lacking and feels like they are reusing plots from old movies and TV shows mostly. Still overall have to say it's growing on me, still not changing my mind about the female thing or anything else, but she is doing a great job with the character.
Well I see they have put their spin on the illegal crises "with real aliens" representing the illegal immigrants. And people who love the country as Neo Nazis, all white people are evil "men in particular. On the up side the black woman in charge seems to be evil, didn't think they would do that one. And once again super girl gets her ass kicked then the women at the DEO come up with a way to help. And the gun was not needed as just talking to a crazy person seems to work, so as to say guns are not needed. The continuing under tones of liberal politics, toxic feminism, and gender issues dominate another episode of wimp girl.

@xoxo87xoxo Oh, gosh. I'd have to disagree. The banjo is a perfect personification of Appalachian music. As one the 'bluegrass' instruments. The music you refer to is very specific. Appalachian music is precisely the music of the mountainous region of Appalachia in the Eastern United States, where our colonies began. It is actually derived from English ballads,, Irish and Scottish traditional music, and religious hymns.
Tired of the damn black panther already, do a show with just him and get back to the real group already. I mean hes ok and i would watch it but this is the advengers not the secret missions of black panther.
I heard this was the final season of the show and they want to end it, kind of explains the whole everyone married thing. They could pick it up later after penny has had a few kids and they have moved into a house. He could be a professor teaching and published papers, she is an agent for actors who have trouble finding work. Her clients are very odd and unusual, she would work primary from home and they both make time to share timer with the kids and at least one parent is home with them. The boy could be more like his mom, and the girl is the brainy one and at times surprises her dad as to just how smart she is. I could go on about a running joke she slept with sheldon or other things but think thats enough to get a good idea going for a new show.

Sudden American Frugality Hampers an Economic Recovery
There is a reason people say to beware what you wish for because you may get it.
For years, the world has wanted Americans to consume less and to save more. They are getting their wish. The U.S. savings rate, near zero less than a year ago, has soared to nearly 5 percent of income and could go higher. Total personal savings jumped from $20 billion in the first quarter of 2008 to a whopping $453 billion during the same period of 2009. The real danger is if the savings rate goes to 7 or 8 percent. If that happens, economic recovery could be seriously delayed.
When financial markets are working efficiently, saving is a good thing. At this point, however, with major U.S. industries at risk of complete meltdown, Americans desperately need to consume. Yet households are in a totally defensive mode because the meltdown to date has destroyed $14 trillion of their wealth. They have been saving like never before.
Consumption comprises 70 percent of our economy. While the reckless, overleveraged consumption habits of the past hardly made sense, the fear now is that American consumption patterns are on a long-term decline. That means potential economic growth in years ahead could be stunningly low (unless the financial system miraculously recovers and business investment picks up the slack).
The role of upper-income earners has become crucial to savings. There is an undeniable "trickle down" aspect to the workings of our economy. Like it or not, those making more than $100,000 a year are responsible for half of retail sales and 70 percent of the profit margins at retail, according to a study by American Express Publishing and the Harrison Group marketing and research firm. Suddenly, because of the economic meltdown, this group has become highly cautious about spending. Their savings rate has soared, the study reported.
The question is whether Washington is politically demonizing the very folks capable of leading us out of the recession. Affluent Americans have become the new political whipping boy. They are perceived as the illegitimate recipients of the ill-gotten proceeds of financial liberalization and are about to face stiff increases in taxation.
Nobody likes the rich, yet there are serious policy questions about whether Washington's latest political fad of class warfare is on a collision course with the goal of economic recovery. The annual affluence study by Ipsos Mendelsohn found that while the economy and climate change are of primary importance to average-income earners, taxes have become a major concern to suddenly cautious high-income earners. Moreover, this group, according to the data, is ironically finding pleasure in their new "be more like my neighbors" mentality as they draw their purse strings tighter.
A related question centers on the degree to which upper-income earners are worried about today's ballooning national debt. Federal spending next year will reach 28 percent of gross domestic product. It has exceeded 25 percent of GDP only four times in U.S. history. When economic historians look back at this period, it will be enlightening to see whether today's debt explosion was responsible for high-income earners significantly increasing their saving in anticipation of potential tax and inflationary changes resulting from the debt.
American consumers are retrenching and saving frantically, with high-income earners leading the way. The banks are barely lending and exports have collapsed. That leaves one option for stimulating demand in the event that the economy fails to fully recover: more fiscal stimulus. With congressional midterm elections less than a year away, a second fiscal stimulus in early 2010 hardly seems out of the question.
This is where our policymakers could face a tough choice. Would even a $1 trillion additional stimulus package be enough to impress consumers who have lost 14 times as much? Moreover, would a serious negative wealth effect result among high-income earners if the national debt rises to even higher levels?
Policymakers need to ask themselves which development over the past few months enjoys the greater potential to revive the economy: (a) the $800 billion stimulus package that produced millions of rebate checks worth several hundred dollars; or (b) the $3 trillion stock market jump (since the March 9 low), which has relatively cash-rich, traditionally big-spending Americans looking at their 401(k) retirement accounts with some relief for the first time in a while.
Ultimately, the factor determining the success of the Obama economy will be the level of private demand for durable goods by the end of 2010. Success will require a lot of spending by a lot of high-income earners the president probably doesn't like and who probably don't like him.

Galaxy, TFC battle to draw in thriller at BMO
Toronto, ON – Jose Villarreal's strike in second-half stoppage time salvaged a point for the Los Angeles Galaxy in a thrilling 2-2 draw with Toronto FC on Saturday at BMO Field.
Los Angeles struck first 17 minutes into the contest with a bit of luck when Marcelo Sarvas fired a shot on net that looked to be well wide of the left post, but Mike Magee was on the far post and slotted it past Toronto goalkeeper Joe Bendik for the early 1-0 lead and his league-leading fifth goal of the season.
But Toronto battled back to put the sides on level terms in the 29th minute when Robert Earnshaw intercepted a poor back pass by Los Angeles defender Leonardo, rounded goalkeeper Carlo Cudicini and fired it into the net.
Los Angeles captain Landon Donovan came on in the 60th minute for his first action of the season after an extended break and had a chance to score on his first touch, but the shot was right at Bendik.
Substitute Luis Silva played catalyst 12 minutes from time to give Toronto the lead when he collected a ball on the left flank, danced into the Los Angeles penalty area and sent a cross into the box that was tapped home by Osorio to make it 2-1 for the home side.
The two-time defending champions fought back though and used some set-piece magic to equalize in stoppage time as Villarreal got on the end of a free kick in the box and ripped it past Bendik with a spectacular volley to secure a point for his side.
The result leaves Los Angeles with eight points from four matches, while Toronto has four points from four games.

The Gallery: New Prints From Travis Pitts
Several of Travis' prints are available in different effects. It could be clean, faux folded or aged. We're partial to the aged ones (which is what we featured above), but make sure to check out the others in case there's one that better suits your tastes.
Pricing starts as low as $13 for the smallest size (6"x10") and a 48"x32" lists around the $50 price point. You can add a frame if you wish with the drop down pricing menu, although we think you might find more affordable options at your local craft store on sale! No matter which size you pick, these prints are a huge step up from the typical dorm room poster. They would even look great on the walls in an established household without being banished to a "man cave" for the rest of their years.

The National Endowment for the Humanities Landmarks of American History workshops, titled "Clinton's Ditch: the Erie Canal in Western New York," will be hosted at Niagara County Community College in Sanborn. Two sessions will be held: July 21-28 and Aug. 4-11.
The Erie Canal may no longer carry the cargo and passengers of yesteryear, but this artificial river is hardly irrelevant. As the 200th anniversary of its construction approaches, interest in the waterway has spawned a unique learning opportunity right here in Western New York.
This July and August, NCCC will host a diverse group of 80 K-12 educators from around the nation as they join with university and museum scholars to conduct two one-week explorations of the Erie Canal. Throughout the week, participants will engage with experts in history, literature, art history, music, science and education in both classroom sessions and historic site-visits along the canal corridor.
Project director Pierson Bell said the workshop will help educators see the broad impacts of the canal on American society.
"Many people who grew up in Western New York are familiar with the canal's importance as a transportation artery and the engineering challenges that confronted its builders," Bell said. "What is less known is how the canal influenced notions of American identity and culture and, as a contributing factor to the Market Revolution, brought about social and economic transformations on a national level."
"Clinton's Ditch: the Erie Canal in Western New York" is a Landmarks of American History and Culture workshop, a series of summer programs funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities.
"Being selected to host a NEH workshop is a great honor," said Bell, a history teacher at Medina High School. "The grant process was hyper-competitive and Niagara County Community College was the only community college in the nation that was awarded a Landmarks grant in 2013."
For many participants, their attendance will mark their first trip to the Buffalo area and "Clinton's Ditch" will highlight the best of Western New York. Because the Erie Canal transformed the City of Buffalo from a frontier town into one of America's wealthiest cities, educators will tour Buffalo's Erie Canal harbor and the city's distinguished architecture. The difficulty of transcending the scenic Niagara Escarpment will be on display during tours of Lockport's "Flight of Five" locks and a cruise through locks 34 and 35. Participants will also tour canal landmarks in Rochester and Syracuse.
Teachers who take part in the workshop were chosen from a competitive applicant pool. Throughout the week, these educators will collaborate with each other to bring the knowledge they gain into their classrooms.
"Workshops such as the NEH Landmarks series are invaluable professional development opportunities," Bell said. "Rarely do teachers have the opportunity to study content in-depth alongside university professors or museum experts. Professional development workshops that allow teachers to become students again and engage in content-rich dialogue with colleagues and scholars are what teachers need for the new common core standards to be successful."

text: Hydrite Advanced Resins, LLC (HAR) introduced two new epoxy resins for a wide range of composites, coatings and adhesive applications at the recent 2011 Thermoset Resin Formulators Association (TRFA) annual meeting in Niagara Falls, Canada. Two grades of Resorcinol Diglycidyl Ether (RDGE), a difunctional aromatic resin, are now offered by HAR. HAR 2120 has properties that are similar to other commercial RDGE resins, including a relatively low viscosity (500-1,000 cps), making it a good choice as a reactive additive to reduce viscosity while enhancing physical properties, the company said. HAR 2140 is a higher molecular weight RDGE with viscosity of 3,500-4,500 cps enabling the formulator to use HAR 2140 in higher concentrations or even as the sole resin system. In addition, unlike HAR 2120 and other commercial RDGE resins, HAR 2140 will not crystallize in storage eliminating the need for heated storage and/or melting ovens, the company said.

Sapphire HD 4890 Review
The fast and furious pace of video card introductions last year has continued into 2009. This time Sapphire and ATI have brought forth the HD 4890 as the new flagship single GPU card in their performance arsenal. With increased clock speeds and performance, this card should offer a substantial increase in performance over the current HD 4870 crop of video cards. Built upon the same architecture as the R770 core, the HD 4890 features the same 800 stream processors and almost one billion transistors. Offering 1GB of GDDR5 memory running at 975MHz and the R790 GPU core running at an impressive 850MHz, the HD 4890 looks to be a serious contender for the single GPU crown. Sapphire doesn't only offer just a stock clocked card. At launch there will be an overclocked card to push the level of performance higher with clock speeds of 901MHz on the GPU core and 1000MHz on the GDDR5 memory. The HD 4890 is not just about raw FPS numbers as it has all the capabilities to make this card a well rounded addition to any system with its High Definition outputs and UVD (Unified Video Decoder). Let's see if the Sapphire HD 4890 can live up to the performance expectations as the top of the ATI single GPU food chain.
Closer Look:
The Sapphire HD 4890 is delivered in packaging that displays the attributes of the HD 4890 on the front panel of the box. These include the fact that the HD 4890 is CrossfireX capable with a supporting motherboard and can be used with up to four cards. The fact that the HD 4890 has 800 stream processors, two Dual link DVI ports, GDDR5 memory, HDMI out put with 7.1 sound and game physics processing technology are all listed.
When you pull the inner package out you get to the HD 4890 and underneath it is a box that contains all of the accessories. The packaging kept this card safe on its trip around the globe.
The accessories included with the HD 4890 will get you connected to the display of your choosing, whether it is a single RCA output all the way up to HDMI video and sound via the HSMI adapter. The bundled software includes a suite of products from Cyberlink as well as the latest from Futuremark (3DMark Vantage) so you can try your card out and see how you compare on the ORB.
Now let's look at the card and see what it has to offer in terms of performance.

Officers in Right Place, Right Time – 4 Times in Same Night
August 31st, 2012 by milwaukeepolice
District 5 and Neighborhood Task Force officers were in the right place at the right time on August 30 – four times.
Officers were on patrol in the area of 18th and Olive. A school bus driver saw Officers Gerald Winding and Ronald Villagomez and told them about a juvenile in the area carrying a gun. The officers spotted the suspect and went to stop him. The 15-year-old ran but was unable to escape the officers. …The officers found the juvenile had a handgun.
NTF Tactical Enforcement Officers Tory Lea and Roy Horn were patrolling the area of 16th and Locust when they came upon two men who were in the street firing guns. The suspects ran from the officers but were quickly captured with the assistance of District 5 officers.
Officers Bryan Miller and Keith Garland responded to MLK and Wright St. for a shots fired call. The caller reported seeing a suspect firing a sawed-off shotgun at another person. The suspect fled from the officers. District 5 officers converged on the area and found the 17-year-old suspect hiding in a trashcan. Officers found the discarded sawed-off weapon – a .22 rifle. The officers also found numerous casings.
Officer Dustin Langfeldt responded to a shots fired call near 24 and Auer. The caller provided a description, which was relayed by the dispatcher to Officer Langfeldt. Officer Langfeldt saw the 17-year-old suspect and conducted a field interview. The suspect thought he could outsmart Officer Langfeldt by tossing his .45 pistol with a 30-round magazine into his vehicle but he was no match Officer Langfeldt's keen observation skills.

Person with knowledge of the decision tells AP Kirschner named interim AD at Rutgers
NEWARK, N.J. – A source with knowledge of the appointment says Rutgers is turning to former dean Carl Kirschner to run its athletic department in the wake of the basketball scandal that led to the firing of coach Mike Rice and the resignation of athletic director Tim Pernetti.
The source spoke on the condition of anonymity Monday because the appointment had not been announced by the university. The Star-Ledger of Newark first reported the decision.
This is the second time that Kirschner will run the program. He took over at the start of 2009 after Robert Mulcahy was fired, and held the role for four months, stepping down when Pernetti took over.
This time, Kirschner takes over in a time of crisis. Rutgers has seen it status plummet after ESPN aired a video last Tuesday, showing Rice grabbing and kicking players at practice while uttering anti-gay slurs.

Katy Perry is the new most expensive queen of music.
The 31-year-old pop star is No. 1 on Forbes' new list of the world's highest-paid women in music in 2015, with estimated annual earnings of a whopping $135 million. She made the most of her money from her 126-show "Prismatic World Tour," which ended in October, and endorsement deals with Covergirl, Coty and Claire's Accessories. Perry placed fifth last year, with $40 million – a $95 million pay raise.
Coming in at second place on the list is last year's No. 2, Taylor Swift. Over the past year, the 25-year-old banked $80 million, less than two-thirds of what Perry earned, via sales of her 2014 album "1989" (which she famously refused to put on Spotify), and tickets for her "1989" world tour. Forbes' 2014 list had shown her estimated annual earnings to be $64 million.
Swift recently wrapped up the U.S. leg of her tour on Halloween in Tampa, Florida, where she sang a duet of "Let It Go" with Frozen star Idina Menzel, one of several celebrity guests the country-turned-pop star has brought onstage at her shows.
READ: Taylor Swift on "Bad Blood" being about Katy Perry: "It doesn't point to any one person"
Beyonce, 34, who topped Forbes' 2014 list with $115 million in annual earnings, placed fifth on the magazine's 2015 roster with $54.5 million. In 2014, the singer wrapped up her "Mrs. Carter Show" world tour and then toured with husband Jay Z for their "On the Run" tour.
Other female artists who made Forbes' list of the world's highest-paid women in music 2015 list include Lady Gaga, 29; Jennifer Lopez, 46 and Miranda Lambert, 31.

MU Library Adds $10K Treasure to its Collection
COLUMBIA (AP) - An elaborate $10,000 Bible that includes gold accents and exotic German paper has been donated to the main library at the University of Missouri-Columbia.
The Columbia Missourian reports that the Pennyroyal Caxton Bible is one of only 400 created by illustrator and designer Barry Moser of Hatfield, Mass. Ellis Library special collections head Alla Barabtarlo says the 1996 Bible is "astonishing" and "beautiful."
It was donated by New York City businessman Bruce Kovner and arrived at the library in August.
Right now, the Bible is being kept in a climate-controlled room. But it's expected to be moved downstairs by Christmas for a new exhibit, "Verba Sacra," or sacred words in Latin. The exhibit will detail the history of the scriptures through the ages.

After attending more than 25 weddings, I assumed I knew everything there was about being a gracious guest during someone's big day. However, after being invited to two destination weddings abroad, I realized the same rules don't apply. Before you pack your bags, here's what the experts say you need to know in order to avoid a faux pas.
While most couples will provide guests with a gathering or two (outside of the wedding), don't expect the couple to provide all the entertainment and things to do, says Jen Taylor of Taylor'd Events Group. Do your own research and identify a few activities to fill the time. Jen says she usually has the couple offer a few suggests that guests can explore on their own.
If you say you're going to attend any of the additional activities the couple has planned, be sure to show up. "Remember, the couple is paying for each event," says Emily Sullivan of Emily Sullivan Events. "By not showing up, you've cost them money." If you're worried that you may not be up for all of those events, she says simply plan ahead and let them know you can't make it. "It's perfectly acceptable to do your own thing."
Leave The Presents At Home.
If you're gifting the couple with a physical object, Megan Velez of Destination Weddings Travel Group, is adamant about not bringing it along to the party. She recommends sending it before or after the wedding. "Neither you nor the couple want to lug a gift through customs and security," she says. Instead, she suggests going the non-traditional route and gifting them with an experience they can use on their honeymoon (like a massage, candlelit dinner or fun excursion).
Look to the wedding website and invitation for cues on the proper dress. "If the wedding is on the beach in Mexico during the day, beach casual is likely to be a safe bet," says Megan. "An invite with classic black and white script font points to more formal attire." When in doubt, ask the couple (a few weeks out, not in the week running up to the big day).
Enjoy Yourself but be Respectful.
You can treat the trip like a vacation but don't go crazy, says Megan. "Just because you're at a resort and a fun destination, doesn't mean you can let loose and act like it's the spring break trip you never had," she says. "Be conscious of the fact that the trip is about celebrating the couple." Along those lines, Megan does not recommend inviting friends or kids who aren't invited to the wedding. "Things can get complicated quickly when traveling with guests who aren't attending."
Expect to pay your whole way through. Before RSVP'ing yes, Keith Phillips of Classic Photographers says "be sure you're able to afford all costs." Some couples may choose to cover all or some of the costs for specific guests, but it shouldn't be assumed.
Pay Attention to the Details.
Destination weddings require more planning for the couple and guests says Tifany Wunschl of Gourmet Invitations. "It is very likely the couple has given you all of the information you need." Make sure to read through everything. She adds "there is nothing more frustrating to a couple who has spent time listing all of the details for their wedding, to just have their guests ask them what airport they should fly into." Go through everything very carefully and avoid contacting the couple. If you have questions while on-site, talk to the hotel staff which has most likely been prepped with information and can recommend local attractions.
And last, if you RSVP no and then find a cheap flight right before the wedding, avoid the urge to go. This adds additional stress to the couple.

Thanks for sharing, will try and give you the feedback soon.
I have a medium sized business and cloud service is really necessary. I wanted all the information to be intact appropriately and proper security backup plan in place too. I took the cloud services from Introviz and also few softwares for managing my business at different levels. Speaking to my clients on daily basis without any interruption is what I required and I depended on VoIP services offered by the company. I took VizDesk, VizIaaS, and CIO consulting services This helped to resolve internet connectivity problems, network and router issues. Thus, there was no downtime and I got complete online support in case of any issues. WIth this, I also got help of an IT strategy Consultant who streamlined my business procedures at different levels.
