People to be assigned jobs: Priya, Jeff
 Task #1568 (Assigned): Clean up Colony-New and prepare for next year https://roboticsclub.org/redmine/issues/1568 2010-11-08T22:36:22Z John Sexton email@example.com
Need to figure out what we want to do with colony-new repository.

We will need to clean it out for next year, but if there are substantial library changes between now and then (maybe the next version of the Intro labs will incorporate line-following???) then there is a valid argument to wait and do this at the beginning of next year.

In which case, we can either wipe everything, keep everything but the lab implementations, or don't touch anything.
 Task #1562 (Assigned): Make Hunter-Prey Ref More Verbose https://roboticsclub.org/redmine/issues/1562 2010-11-05T21:33:31Z Ben Wasserman firstname.lastname@example.com

From LinuxMIPS
TFTP is short for Trivial File Transfer Protocol and is the most common protocol used to boot the OS of workstations and embedded devices over IP networks.
Network configuration
Before a tftp client can start a download it's network needs to be configured. This is not a problem with any tftp client such as the tftp(1) command line client, that is running on an already configured system. In case of the system firmware this is typically done through BOOTP/DHCP.
- Many tftp client and server implementations are plagued with bugs. If you're experience problems with a IP22 or RM 200, check try the hints given on the ARC page.
- TFTP is considered an insecure protocol and thus generally - like most UDP-based protocols - filtered at firewalls.

Four-Wheel-Drive Systems Demystified
So, you've decided your next vehicle should have four-wheel drive. Maybe you've decided it should be all-wheel drive.
Will it be quattro, Autotrac, Versatrak, 4Matic, Control Trac or Command Trac? Should you care?
The marketing names may not be important, but consumers may find it useful to understand the variety of systems available and how they're similar-and different. Here's a rundown:
This is the most basic system; it operates after a driver either moves a shift lever or presses a button inside the vehicle.
Otherwise, the part-time four-wheel-drive vehicle travels in two-wheel-drive mode; typically in these cases, the power that's moving the vehicle is sent to the two rear wheels and the two front wheels are pushed along.
When a driver shifts from two- to four-wheel drive in a vehicle with part-time four-wheel drive, he or she locks together the front and rear axles, so the front and rear wheels rotate at the same speed. This improves straight-line traction.
Since the part-time system has no center differential, there is no way for the two axles to rotate at different speeds in a corner. So, part-time systems shouldn't be engaged unless the vehicle is on very slippery road conditions such as deep snow and mud where wheels can slip as necessary for turning.
If you try driving one of these vehicles on dry pavement with four-wheel drive activated, you will likely feel an awkward, binding sense as you turn a corner. It's also possible to damage drive system components on these vehicles and cause premature tire wear if you travel in four-wheel drive on dry pavement.
Distinguishing Characteristics
- In normal mode, the vehicle travels in 2WD, typically with rear wheels receiving power and pushing along the front wheels.
- Driver is responsible for engaging 4WD and disengaging it.
- Activating 4WD sends power to the front wheels and continues power to rear wheels as well.
- In rigorous, off-road terrain, a driver can engage an extra-low gear for improved torque while in 4WD.
- Requires a transfer case, two driveshafts, two axle differentials and two powered axles.
- Does not include a center differential.
- 4WD should not be used on dry, hard surfaces.
Since this system is basic, it's less complicated and less costly to build than some other systems, resulting in a lower vehicle price for car shoppers. This helps explain why it can be found on lower-priced, entry-level vehicles.
The system has shown itself, in general, to be durable under heavy stress. Since four-wheel drive is used only when needed by the driver, components don't get constant wear and tear.
Two-wheel-drive mode, which these vehicles operate in most of the time, can be quieter than four-wheel drive, especially if a vehicle doesn't have sufficient sound insulation.
Another advantage of the part-time system is a very slight increase in fuel economy, compared with what you'd see in a comparable vehicle where all four wheels receive power all the time.
Older vehicles with part-time four-wheel drive may require drivers to stop their vehicles before shifting from two-wheel drive to four-wheel drive. Some older vehicles also mandated that the driver get out and manually lock the front hubs at each of the front wheels. It was not the most convenient process for consumers, especially for those who shunned snowy or muddy conditions. Most, if not all, of today's part-time, four-wheel-drive vehicles are no longer built with manually locking front hubs.
Part-time four-wheel-drive systems make the driver responsible for deciding whether road conditions warrant engaging four-wheel drive. The driver also must decide when to deactivate four-wheel drive.
In recent years, automakers have been offering fewer vehicles with part-time systems.
Some prominent models that still have it include the Jeep Wrangler and Nissan Xterra sport-utility vehicles that are popular with off-roaders.
Vehicles with permanent four-wheel drive-also known as full-time four-wheel drive-have no two-wheel-drive mode. They always operate with power going to all four wheels, so drivers benefit all the time from four-wheel traction and don't have to shift or push a button to activate it. There also is no way to turn off the four-wheel drive.
In contrast with part-time four-wheel drive, vehicles with permanent four-wheel drive do have a center differential, so they can travel on dry pavement without damaging components or having wheels bind in turns and corners.
In some vehicles, the center differential also can be locked when more traction is needed, such as during rugged off-road driving.
There can be other differences, especially in electronic features. For example, Land Rover's Discovery Series II uses traction control to help control wheel slip.
Distinguishing Characteristics
- All four wheels are powered all the time.
- A driver has no way of switching to 2WD.
- In rigorous off-road terrain, a driver can engage low range for improved torque.
- Requires a center differential, transfer case, two driveshafts, two axle differentials and two powered axles.
Since drivers in vehicles with permanent four-wheel drive don't need to activate the system, they can concentrate on driving, not judging road conditions and pushing buttons or shifting into four-wheel drive.
There is no lag time for four-wheel-drive activation in these vehicles, as there could be in vehicles with automatic four-wheel-drive systems that engage only after sensing that road conditions have changed.
Vehicles with permanent four-wheel drive can have less attractive fuel economy than you might get from a comparable vehicle with part-time four-wheel drive or automatic four-wheel drive.
In some circumstances, driving with the center differential locked may make steering more strenuous because the vehicle will tend to want to travel straight forward, rather than turn.
Vehicles with permanent four-wheel drive tend to have more heavy-duty drivetrain equipment and might be priced higher than other four-wheel-drive vehicles.
The number of vehicles offered with permanent 4WD has remained rather steady in recent years, and Land Rover remains one brand whose entire product line-from the Freelander to the Range Rover HSE-has this feature.
This system is designed to automatically decide for drivers when and where to apply torque to different wheels when added traction is needed.
Marketed by a variety of names including Control Trac, this system works via a center differential or viscous coupling or some other kind of coupling to transfer torque, or power, in fractions of a second when the system senses a need for extra traction.
Distinguishing Characteristics
- A driver can set an "auto 4WD" function, usually via a button on the dashboard, and the vehicle decides when to activate and deactivate 4WD, as necessary; driver has no further input.
- When the vehicle engages 4WD, it manages and transmits the power, as necessary, to both front and rear wheels or just to the wheels with the most traction.
- A driver also can switch to low gear for improved torque in rigorous off-road terrain.
- Requires a center differential or some kind of viscous coupling or multi-plate clutch, a transfer case, two driveshafts, two axle differentials and two powered axles.
The appeal of these automatic four-wheel-drive vehicles is they monitor and sense their own traction needs as they travel, and automatically adjust how the power is delivered to the wheels. The driver can concentrate on driving, rather than having to decide whether to shift into four-wheel drive.
Some four-wheel-drive experts say that in severe off-road conditions the automatic system can hamper a driver's efforts. For example, because the system is quick and automatic, a driver may find the power shifting from one axle to another abrupt and unsettling while the vehicle attempts to climb over rocks or traverse a gulch. In this case, a driver should set the vehicle in 4WD high or 4WD low, rather than automatic 4WD.
The automatic system is more complex, typically with more components, than a part-time four-wheel-drive system-and it can be more costly.
Automatic four-wheel drive has been a growing offering on vehicles and is available on such models as the Ford Escape and Lexus GX 470.
All-wheel drive works like a permanent four-wheel-drive system by providing continuous power to front and rear axles. There is no way to turn off the all-wheel-drive feature, and a driver doesn't have to do anything to activate it.
The mechanicals in these vehicles lack a transfer gearbox-also known as a transfer case-that would allow engine torque to be geared down to a very low range for rigorous off-roading.
All-wheel-drive systems tend to be packaged compactly, with less bulk and weight, than in traditional, truck-like applications and thus are suitable for use in a variety of smaller, lighter-weight vehicles such as cars. This also explains why all-wheel-drive vehicles don't necessarily have to be positioned higher above the road as four-wheel-drive vehicles are.
In some all-wheel-drive vehicles, much of the power during everyday, normal driving is channeled primarily to one of the axles. For example, the normal power distribution under ideal traction conditions in the Porsche 911 Carrera 4 is 5 percent front and 95 percent rear.
Vehicles with all-wheel drive use a differential-or viscous coupling or clutch pack, depending on the vehicle's engineering-to maximize traction when needed. As wheels begin to slip in these vehicles, more and more power is automatically directed to the wheels where there is no slippage. The power shift can be sizable, if necessary, and again, it's done without any input from the driver
Distinguishing Characteristics
- Front and rear axles receive power all the time.
- A driver has no way of switching to 2WD.
- Vehicle does not have low gear for strenuous off-road terrain.
- Requires a center differential, two driveshafts, two axle differentials and two powered axles.
- Does not include a transfer case.
All-wheel-drive vehicles tend to offer respectable fuel economy compared with other types of four-wheel-drive vehicles.
All-wheel-drive systems often can be packaged compactly, with less bulk and weight, and thus are suitable for use in a variety of smaller, lighter-weight vehicles.
The systems also can be less pricey than those in vehicles with heavy-duty four-wheel-drive equipment.
Typically, there is little need to position the vehicle higher above the road to accommodate the all-wheel-drive mechanicals.
In all-wheel-drive vehicles, drivers don't have to activate the system. They have continuous traction from all four wheels.
All-wheel-drive vehicles do not come with a transfer gearbox -also known as a transfer case-that provides a low range to gear down the engine torque for the extra control that off-road enthusiasts often demand.
All-wheel-drive vehicles can cost more than comparable vehicles with two-wheel drive.
All-wheel drive is showing up in more models each year and can be found in a wide variety of vehicles, from Toyota's Sienna minivan to Mitsubishi's Lancer Evolution.
Subaru made a strategic decision years ago to make its entire lineup all-wheel-drive vehicles, which continues to this day.
Luxury brands are eyeing all-wheel drive as the next "must have" feature.

Until June, it had been a couple of years since I last traveled in Iceland during the summer.
In those two years there have been a lot of changes, changes we have reported on extensively.
Most notably, between 2012 and 2013 there was an increase in visitors to Iceland of around 140,000—around 40 percent of Iceland's population—taking the total number of annual visitors from 647,000 to 781,000.
In June this year, there were more than 35,000 additional visitors compared to the same month two years ago.
I remember my trip in June 2012 well. My travel companion and I took a road trip along the South Coast, starting with a slight detour to Lake Kleifarvatn and geothermal area Krýsuvík.
For most of the trip, we felt like we had the place to ourselves. At Seljalandsfoss we were among a handful of visitors, nearby Skógafoss was busier but not crowded, as was Vík and Skaftafell.
Jökulsárlón glacial lagoon, a must-see for visitors with enough time to get out to the southeast corner, was also not that busy and again there were times when we could still get away from the crowds.
The year prior, we had walked the popular highland Laugavegur route from Landmannalaugar to Þórsmörk. Being June, it was early in the season and again it didn't feel very busy.
This year, things were a little different. I didn't make it to Landmannalaugar but there were noticeably many more people in Þórsmörk.
An Icelandic woman who now lives in Norway expressed to us her frustration with the sharp growth in tourism numbers. "Iceland is changing. I don't understand what they're trying to do with this [tourism industry]," she told us, adding that she's almost shocked now when she runs into fellow Icelanders while traveling the country.
The Laugavegur hike, and Landmannalaugar in particular, has long been popular but now it seems the area can't take any more visitors. The municipality of Rangárþing is preparing a new plan for Landmannalaugar that includes a ban on allowing visitors to stay overnight at the site.
Kristinn Guðnason of the municipality's planning committee said in an interview with Morgunblaðið earlier this month that the area cannot handle any more visitors and that accommodation must be moved to the edges of settled areas.
On a recent visit to Seljalandsfoss, the car park was bursting at the seams, buses were lined up and cars overflowing onto the road. Þingvellir too was crowded. And last weekend at Lake Mývatn, accommodation was very hard to come by.
And it's not just the lady in Þórsmörk who's complaining. Other Icelanders too have been upset with these changes and worry about the unsustainable nature of the growth in tourism in this country.
In June, Edvard Huijbens, director of the Icelandic Tourism Research Centre (ITRC), said in an interview with ruv.is that the issue needs to be discussed more thoroughly.
"What we have to face is that Iceland is primarily a tourist destination. Tourism has become our largest export sector; it is the industry which generates the most foreign exchange. Iceland is a destination. We must discuss this. What I'm worried about, or find more interesting in this discussion, is a certain irritability towards the industry. These are warning signs."
Edvard made a very good point. The growth in tourism is a development that like everything else has it's pros and cons. It provides much needed foreign exchange but for locals, we've also seen restaurant and rental prices in downtown Reykjavík go up as people try to cash in on the booming industry. The lack of affordable housing in central Reykjavík is partly due to the increase in apartment owners renting out their accommodation to tourists.
More and more buildings are being turned into hotels, guesthouses and short-term lease apartments, pushing out local residents.
While there is much to be said about what city councilors and government ministers could be doing better, tourists too have a responsibility. Numbers and policies are one thing, but visitors must take care of the places they visit.
Seeing rubbish left behind, people venturing off marked paths or reading stories about off-road driving is infuriating. Of course, it doesn't hurt to remind Icelanders of this too.
It may only be a minority of visitors who have such careless behavior but that's enough to leave irreparable damage to Iceland's fragile nature.
When in Iceland, please keep in mind the Traveler's Code:
Leave camping and picnic sites as you would wish to find them.
Never bury litter or leave it lying around.
Never light open fires on vegetated land.
Never dislodge stones or build cairns.
Keep water clean and safeguard springs and pools.
Keep vegetation undamaged.
Keep wildlife undisturbed.
Never damage geological formations.
Respect the tranquility of the countryside.
Never drive off roads.
Keep to marked footpaths when requested.
Respect conservation rules and wardens' instructions.
As stated on the website of the Environment Agency of Iceland, "damage to rock and ground formations can never be repaired. Vegetation is sensitive in many areas and the ground is rough, loose and easily rutted. Damage to plant life takes a long time to repair because of Iceland's short annual growth period. Wind and rain can make the scars worse."
So, while tourism records are broken in Iceland, and forecasts predict this will continue, I hope people will think twice before they run or drive off the path or chuck that garbage or cigarette butt on the ground.
Leave the place how you would like to see it, in the same (or better—help that stray piece of trash find its way to the bin) state than when you arrived.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. – The King University women's volleyball team jumped out of conference to take on Johnson C. Smith University and Morris College in a triangular on Saturday. The Tornado took the first match from Morris 3-0 (25-8, 25-10, 25-10) before defeating the host Golden Bulls 3-0 (25-11, 25-9, 25-18).
In the match against Morris (5-7), Lauren Willoughby paced the King offense as she matched a career-high with 15 kills. Freshman Ashton Beckner also set a career best with 10 kills in the match. Willoughby started her day with four kills in King's first six points of the match as the Tornado quickly opened up a 6-2 lead. She then tacked on two more kills later in the set and Olivia Underwood followed with an ace to put King up 18-4. Underwood then ended the 25-8 set win with a kill.
In the second set, Tiffany Baines served up back-to-back aces to give King a commanding 13-5 advantage. The lead swelled to 22-10 following a Beckner kill before Blair Fields ended the 25-10 set win with three straight service aces. The Tornado offense continued to roll in their 25-10 third set victory has they hit .450 in the frame.
For the match, King hit a season-best .614 while setting a season low of seven attack errors in the contest. Underwood dished out 15 assists while Casey Williams handed out 11 dimes. Brooke Calhoun led the defense with 12 digs in the win.
The Tornado offense continued to cruise in the second match against Johnson C. Smith (9-9) as they didn't make and attack error in the first two sets. With the score even at 9-9 in the first set, Maribeth Kern sparked a 6-0 King run with two of her five kills in the match. Williams capped the run with an ace before King (19-3) started another run. This time King scored seven straight points to open up a 22-10 lead. Payton Tipton eventually gave King the 25-11 set win with a service ace.
King quickly opened up a 7-2 lead in the second set as a Summer Kremer kill prompted a Golden Bull timeout. The Tornado gradually extended their lead, before Tipton served four straight aces as King took the set 25-9.
The third set was tight early, but King used a 7-1 run that was started with a Williams kill to gain separation at 14-8. The score got as close a four points on three occasions the rest of the way before Mariah Herington and Jordan Baty registered consecutive kills to end the 25-18 set win and give King the 3-0 sweep.
Kremer led the Tornado with nine kills while Kern and Kelsey Griffitts chipped in with five kills apiece. Underwood dished out 29 assists while a Kern, Calhoun and Tipton recorded a team-high six digs.
King will be in action again on Tuesday when they host North Greenville University at the Student Center Complex. First serve is scheduled for 7:00 p.m.

Brief SummaryRead full entry
BiologyDespite its worldwide notoriety, very little is known about the natural ecology and behaviour of this predator. These sharks are usually solitary or occur in pairs, although it is apparently a social animal that can also be found in small aggregations of 10 or more, particularly around a carcass (3) (6). Females are ovoviviparous; the pups hatch from eggs retained within their mother's body, and she then gives birth to live young (10). Great white sharks are particularly slow-growing, late maturing and long-lived, with a small litter size and low reproductive capacity (8). Females do not reproduce until they reach about 4.5 to 5 metres in length, and litter sizes range from two to ten pups (8). The length of gestation is not known but estimated at between 12 and 18 months, and it is likely that these sharks only reproduce every two or three years (8) (11). After birth, there is no maternal care, and despite their large size, survival of young is thought to be low (8). Great whites are at the top of the marine food chain, and these sharks are skilled predators. They feed predominately on fish but will also consume turtles, molluscs, and crustaceans, and are active hunters of small cetaceans such as dolphins and porpoises, and of other marine mammals such as seals and sea lions (12). Using their acute senses of smell, sound location and electroreception, weak and injured prey can be detected from a great distance (7). Efficient swimmers, sharks have a quick turn of speed and will attack rapidly before backing off whilst the prey becomes weakened; they are sometimes seen leaping clear of the water (6). Great whites, unlike most other fish, are able to maintain their body temperature higher than that of the surrounding water using a heat exchange system in their blood vessels (11).

By RAELYNN RICARTE
News staff writer
July 27, 2005
Rep. Patti Smith wants to lock sexual predators up for a minimum of 25 years — and better track their whereabouts once they re-enter society.
This week Smith presented House Bill 3507 to her elected peers and was pleased that the legislation immediately gained strong bipartisan support. She is hopeful that, even late in the 2005-06 biennium session, her proposal can become law.
"Our laws are relatively lacking when compared with the penalties in other states. There have been a lot of high-profile crimes by sexual predators in the news lately and I want to be proactive and make sure that Oregon doesn't have to name a law for a victim someday. This is really from my heart," said Smith, R-Corbett, whose district includes Hood River County.
She had HB 3507 drafted so that is closely resembled the Florida law already in effect. Her bill triples the mandatory minimum sentence for adults who victimize children, ages 12 and under, by committing first-degree rape, sodomy or sexual penetration. Smith is seeking to get perpetrators off the street by increasing their prison time from 100 months to 300 months. She said murder carries the same penalty and the harm done by sexual predators is just as harmful to society as a whole. She does not want any reduction in the minimum sentence for "good time."
"We need to send a clear message that Oregon has zero tolerance for sexual predators," said Smith. "Some say it's late in the session to start new legislation, but I think this issue is just too important to wait for."
Gloria Needham, director of Hood River County's crime victims advocate program, fully supports Smith's move to protect children.
"Sexual assault is just a horrific kind of crime and I, too, feel strongly that it should be up there with the sanctions for murder," said Needham. "This crime not only affects the victim and his/her family, but the perpetrator's family as well. Plus, it traumatizes the entire community and, with so many people hurt, I believe that zero tolerance is a good idea."
Katie Muirden, a probation officer with the Hood River Community Justice Department, believes that sex offender treatment should also be given more legislative attention. She is aware of the state's budget constraints in recent years but would like to see funding restored to put rehabilitation programs back into prisons.
"We hear about all these high-profile sex offenders out there. But the majority of these crimes are committed by (an uncle or grandpa) who get caught, go through treatment and then, statistically, don't re-offend," she said.
Smith agrees that sex offenders who can be treated should be given that opportunity. She said the legislature has years after HB 3507 becomes law to address that issue since predators can then be locked up. She said more money also needs to be found in order to monitor sexual predators once they are freed back into the mainstream population. But the first step, according to Smith, is to make sure that the state's youngest citizens are protected from "very sick people."
"Yes, we need to come up with whatever funding is necessary for public safety. But this was one aspect of the problem that we could address now. We can make sure there is tough punishment for the true sexual predator who is never going to be helped by treatment," Smith said.

Michael Edwards (Cardio Mike) is the general manager of Genesis Health Club in Leavenworth.
1. Michael, you recently volunteered your time to conduct an exercise session for those at the Alliance Against Family Violence. Why did you decide to do this?
It was for a great organization and I love teaching group fitness!
It gave me a reason to get out of the office for a bit, burn some calories, relieve some stress and have some fun.
2. How long have you been in the health and fitness business and what attracted you to this line of work? What are the greatest benefits of exercise for a person in any stage of life?
I have always been athletic and energetic. As a coach and former business owner, I liked inspiring people to accomplish things. When I was presented with the chance to work at Genesis in 2006, I saw it as an amazing opportunity to reach out to people. Not to mention the positive fun environment change from my former occupation as a Corrections Officer.
3. Do you believe that volunteering your time to help people learn about exercise will provide them with the incentive and motivation to make working out a regular activity in their lives?
I hope so! It does take about three weeks to create a habit and start a routine, so if my efforts spark interest and show how fun and beneficial that exercise can be than I've accomplished my goal.
I give them a good workout for an hour where we burn calories and again, have some fun.
I always hope that will help incline them to continue with a healthier lifestyle either at Genesis, on their own, or anywhere else.
4. How would you advise someone who doesn't have a lot of time and inclination to exercise to begin working out? What regime would you suggest to ease into the process? I would advise them to start with the bare minimum of what people who stick to a program do, which is just two times a week. They could just do body resistance and walk, run or jog for cardiovascular training.
As for the duration on the exercise session, they could start with 15 minutes and increase the time as their stamina increases.
The little allotted time will also create value to make more time as they start to burn fat and find themselves feeling better with more energy.
Results usually prompt people to see more value in the time they have put in, and incentivizes them to make more time for exercise.
5. What is the most satisfying part of donating your time to help people stay fit and healthy?
Their enthusiasm when they are having fun burning calories.
At the end of the day, it's the best feeling in the world knowing you have helped someone help themselves and see substantial results.
I call it proactive healthcare. It is amazing what pitfalls you can avoid by exercising on a regular basis and how you can add so much more to your quality of life.
— Rimsie McConiga

by Sue Hoppin, Founder and President, National Military Spouse Network
The National Military Spouse Network (NMSN) is a modern solution to an age-old problem.
As military spouses, we often wonder if it's possible to have it all. Traditionally, the transient military lifestyle has limited our ability to create and sustain a career path that meets our deepest goals, talents and aspirations. The National Military Spouse Network (NMSN) believes that by leveraging today's technology and employment trends, it is entirely possible to maintain a rewarding career within the framework and challenges of the military lifestyle. We believe that a truly portable career is one that allows military spouses to leverage our existing skills and interests into meaningful, paid work.
Military spouses looking for a job in the DC area face a challenging environment. With over 85% of jobs being filled through the hidden job market, most folks will find their next job through networking. For military spouses, this can prove quite daunting. Our transient lifestyles pretty much guarantee that we're rebuilding our networks every few years. By the time we're meeting people who can help us with the job search, it's almost time to pack up and leave again, so how do we build this mystical network to help support our career goals?
The NMSN provides a community for military spouse professionals, businesses, academics and media to share expertise and craft innovative solutions on balancing a viable career with the military lifestyle. We are the pre-eminent networking, mentoring and professional development organization committed to the education, empowerment and advancement of military spouses. Our quarterly networking events in the DC area are a great place for military spouses to connect with one another as well as potential employers and those dealing with military spouse employment issues.
Networking in a fun environment with other military spouses. What could be better? Our next event is August 16th at the EATBAR in Arlington from 6 to 8 PM. (Click here to download the invite.) Remember, the first step in getting your dream job is getting out there and meeting people! We hope you can join us. Pre-registration is required, so make sure you sign up at www.nationalmilitaryspousenetwork.org. You can see pictures from our last event here.
You can follow us on Facebook and Twitter.
Sue Hoppin co-authored, "A Family's Guide to the Military" for the popular Dummies series and has also been listed in "Who's Who of Military Spouses" by Military Spouse Magazine in 2007 and 2008. The opinions expressed in this blog are solely those of Sue Hoppin and do not necessarily reflect those of the USO.
Their journey is everyone's responsibility. From the moment they enlist, through their assignments and deployments, and as they transition back to their communities, they can rely on your support.

My Room: Henry & Holly
Henry & Holly must be two busy bees in this beautiful, creative playroom. Rachel shares: We decided to create a playroom out of the otherwise useless 6 by 8 foot "office" next to the dining room; it is the brightest room in the house and probably the most colorful now!
Henry (6) and Holly (2) can now keep their toys on display and organized (or Mom can keep it organized) and spend hours playing Lego and baking cookies in the kitchen my husband made for them.
Thanks Rachel; lucky kids! Readers, catch up with Rachel on Rook Blog.

Fab Four Update [1]
Have you been wondering about the fate of the quartet of delectable foster puppies on the cover of The Bark (Apr/May 2010) [2]? We checked in with Julie Duarte, who has been fostering the pups in northern California, to see what's haps with Flower, Candace, Ladybug and Edgar. Here's the news from Julie:
Ladybug's new owners absolutely adore her! When they came down, in between snowstorms, to pick her up, they brought a baby receiving blanket that was one of their two sons' when they were first brought home from the hospital. I was so touched by that. She has adapted to her new home very well, and their old Labrador even likes her. They make a pack of three, Ladybug, a Lab and a Mini-Schnauzer—plus, of course, two boys, Taylor and Alexander.
Candace is being picked up tomorrow to go to her new home. So today she will get her bath, toenails trimmed, puppy starter pack and records all together. Her new family is taking a month off work to acclimate Candace to her new surroundings.
The two remaining pups, Flower and Edgar are still patiently awaiting adoption by their own wonderful families. Meanwhile, they are entertained on the property here with the German Shorthaired and Wirehaired Pointers, goats and horses.
I had a very nice family come to visit one of my older Terrier-mix females from a high-kill shelter, in fact the same shelter the pups are from. Rugby is a very sweet, laid-back one-year-old female with a mostly short coat. They decided they did not want to deal with her hair ... and asked if they could adopt Flower instead. I declined, because I told them it is about acceptance with owning dogs: If it's not the hair you are worried about, it will be she drooled on you, came in the house with muddy feet, or, oh my gosh, gets sick on the living room floor!
I need to adopt dogs to families that are really intending to give these pups unconditional love and a home for the rest of their lives. I did not feel their goals met my expectations. That is OK. We will keep interviewing; there are some terrific homes out there for these well-behaved, beautiful puppies!
Interested in providing a great home for Flower or Edgar? Contact Julie Duarte at firstname.lastname@example.com [3].

In 2001 Eric Kupferberg successfully presented his doctoral dissertation, "The Expertise of Germs: practice, language and authority in American bacteriology, 1899-1924," to the Program in Science, Technology and Society at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. A substantial amount of Dr. Kupferberg's primary research was conducted at the ASM's Center for the History of Microbiology. For more than a decade he maintained very detailed notes on many of the scientists involved in this early period of American bacteriology. He has graciously granted us permission to make those notes available on our web site.
This first section relates to the charter members of SAB. The Society's founding dates from a letter written by H. W. Conn, E. O. Jordan and A. C. Abbott in 1899, which was circulated to about forty bacteriologists in the United States and Canada. The letter invited the recipients to aid in the establishment of a society of American bacteriologists, which would affiliate itself with the Society of American Naturalists, and hold its meetings in conjunction with that organization. The first SAB meeting was held in New Haven in late December, 1899.
It was decided at that meeting that the Charter Members of the Society would include those who were then present, as well as those who did not attend but had responded positively to the circular letter. Fifty-nine individuals met those criteria, and Dr. Kupferberg's notes on these men are included in this section.
The notes as received were not intended for publication, and required a good amount of proof-reading. During this process, I also did some fact-checking and made some additions to the notes. These additions were primarily references to the Presidential Addresses of members who served as President of SAB, and additional references to biographical resources and obituaries. In some cases, birth and/or death dates were added when Dr. Kupferberg had not included them. Common abbreviations for biographical sources are:
ANB: American National Biography
DAB: Dictionary of American Biography
DSB: Dictionary of Scientific Biography
In the case where the entire entry for an individual is bracketed, there was no entry in the original notes, and I have included some basic information. Smaller bits of bracketed text are generally my explanatory notes on a question raised in the notes (e.g., regarding the spelling of A. R. Defendorf's last name.)
Dr. Kupferberg titled the file which contained these notes "SAB Charter Members," but he also included some additional individuals. His purpose for this was to document the network of relationships among the individuals most active at the turn of the 20th century. We agreed that, for ASM's purposes, it was appropriate to delete these scientists from the current section, and add them to sections concerning workers in the 1900s and 1910s. The individuals deleted are listed below:
Ball, Meridian R. Greene
Cook, Eula Belle Maley
Doane C.F.
Fiske, Roy T.
Guthrie, Edward Sewall
Hayden, C.C.
Hoyt, Anson
Jones, Henry N.
Lane, Clarence Bronson
Lindegren, Carl
Stone, Raymond V.
Webster, Edward H.
Zobell, Claude
Dr. Eric Kupferberg continues to work in the field of the history of science. You can reach him via email (email@example.com). He remains very eager to collaborate with other researchers who share his commitment to the history of the American Society for Microbiology.

I'm sure you've noticed that little kids love to bake. They always want to help in the kitchen. And at our house the favorite thing to bake is cookies! Even though, at times, we just want to hurry and get done we can't forget to think back to what it's like to be a child. Can you remember times helping your own mom in the kitchen?
Baking a cookie to a child is like making a gourmet meal to us. They feel such a sense of accomplishment when those cookies come out of the oven, don't they? We need to remember to feed their little egos and help build their self esteem, even with things as simple as baking cookies.
And when your child has an interest in cooking other things, try to encourage that interest. Find a good cookbook for kids, like one of the ones we have listed below. You may even want to go choose a cookbook with your child from the bookstore. Then let them choose a recipe to make and buy the ingredients together, if you don't have all the necessary things at home. You'd be surprised at how many grownup Chefs actually started cooking when they were very little.
Here are a few books that you might consider:
William-Sonoma: The Kid's Cookbook: A Great Book for Kids Who Love to Cook! (Williams-Sonoma Lifestyles)
The Everything Kids' Cookbook: From mac 'n cheese to double chocolate chip cookies - 90 recipes to have some finger-lickin' fun (Everything Kids Series)

Hog Wire: Tuesday
There isn't a lot going on in Redskins Nation right now, at least not much that wasn't going on for the last week anyway. Here are a few non-updates:
London Fletcher – Zip. Zilch. Nada. Donut. So stop asking me. There isn't any new news, but frankly, every day that Fletcher is a free agent, oddly, both sides gain leverage. London gains leverage because with Curtis Lofton going to the Saints, there really aren't a lot of options left in free agency at inside linebacker. The Redskins gain leverage because there obviously aren't a lot of other teams throwing money at Fletcher, or he may have already departed. Unfortunately that means that the two may have moved into a stalemate. It's easy to say, "Give him more money," but the Redskins have little to spare after the cap penalty. Something creative needs to be done cap-wise because with what will likely be a fairly short-term deal of 2 or 3 years, there isn't any time to pro-rate out bonus money.

Bring the Festival to You | Mini Amps for Homebound Rockers!
Festival at Home
Not been able to bag any festival tickets this year? Well don't worry, because we've got what you need to have your own festival at home.
Mini amps may be small... but that doesn't mean they can't rock!
We've rounded up or 5 headlining mini amps, so you can bring the festival to you.
Orange Micro Crush
It may be cute, but the Micro Crush was most definitely not designed to be a novelty item. Micro Crush is the smallest amp in Orange's combo series and is a superb companion for at-home practising, road trips or wherever else you want it to tag along to.
With an integrated chromatic tuner, volume and tone controls (although seemingly basic), you have just what you need from a mini amp. Just to add... the Micro Crush has of course been built to Orange's high quality specifications, and it will still spit out that British tone you love.
Some of our other favourite thingfs about the Micro Crush include the fact that it turns itself off when there is no guitar jack plugged in... saving you battery power when you forget to switch off.
... And who could miss the unmistakable signature woven grill cloth and signature Orange crest. Gotta love it!
Not into the whole "Brutal British Tone Thing?" Then maybe some of these other mini amps will be a little more suited to you...
Limited Edition Red Roland Micro Cube
The unique Roland MicroCube Red is a special red Limited Edition version of the famous Micro-CUBE guitar amplifier. All of the Micro-CUBE's amazing original features are not left out on this model either. Featuring 6 DSP effects: chorus, flanger, phaser, tremolo and separate Delay/Reverb and New Digital Tuning Fork with support for flat tunings up to 2 semitones.
Fender Mustang Mini
"The new Fender Mustang amps raise the standard for modern guitar versatility and muscle." This go anywhere, play anywhere amp is portable, compact, lightweight and above all, powerful. It packs state-of-the-art Fender tone technology into a diminutive yet amazingly versatile amp.
Vox Amplug Acoustic
Introducing the amPlug – the headphone guitar amp that lets you enjoy serious guitar sound, fast. The NEW amPlug 'Acoustic' version quickly creates shimmering, rich acoustic guitar sounds using your solid-body electric guitar.
Yamaha THR10
The Yamaha THR10 has incredible tone, outstanding effects, unbelievable stereo playback sound and is small enough to fit pretty much anywhere. Needing your amp to be small and quiet doesn't mean sacrificing tone and feel anymore.
