The global warming conundrum has been on full display over the past 24 hours. Even as one of the nation's most prominent climate scientists has decided to retire in order to become a full-time activist, a new Pew Research poll suggests public interest and intensity with the issue is waning.
James E. Hansen, who directs the Goddard Institute of Space Studies in New York City, has been warning policymakers about the threat of climate change since 1988. And while he remains one of the nation's most outspoken activists on global warming, he decided he needed to pursue the cause full time rather than juggle his outside activities with a full-time job.
Hansen's retirement comes as a new poll out Tuesday suggests he -- as well as President Obama, who has identified climate change as one of his top second-term priorities -- face a major challenge in convincing the public of the urgency of the issue.
A new Pew poll shows the percentage who say that global warming is a "very serious" problem has slipped six points since October.
While Pew reported an identical uptick in the number calling it "somewhat serious"--meaning that more than six in 10 respondents still call climate change somewhat or very serious -- the decline in those who describe it in dire terms means that public attitudes are now around where they were in 2010, close to the lowest level of concern in eight years on the issue.
In short: the American public wants elected officials to do something about global warming, but only a fraction of these citizens are willing to prioritize the issue. In an e-mail Tuesday, Hansen wrote that forcing the federal government to act on the matter "is difficult," even if activists make an appeal to the courts.
"It likely requires public pressure," he wrote. "As in the case of civil rights, the courts do not get too far ahead of public opinion. That is why it is so important to clarify the communications, and our failure as a scientific community to communicate clearly the urgency of actions to stabilize climate."

 2. Procedure
 Since my last update a lot has happened but the procedure is still the
 same even for X.org. Just adjust the filename if necessary.
 Get a set of TrueType fonts (for example from one of the many sites
 making fonts availiable for download) and do the following as root at
 the command line:
 � mkdir /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Truetype
 � cp /home/joeuser/your-download-directory/*.ttf
 � cd /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Truetype
 � ttmkfdir > fonts.scale
 � mkfontdir
 Now if you have a working installation of Windows on one of your
 partitions, you must use the fonts directly from there, copying them
 to a directory of your Linux partition is considered *illegal*. First
 read up on how to get your windows partition detected and working in
 Linux (most distributions do that at installation time, and by
 default), then as root do the following:
 � cd /etc/X11
 � your-favourite-editor XF86Config In some X distributions this file
 is used with a number added to it (for example: XF86Config.4)]. You
 will have to find out which file your X11R6 uses. You can do this
 by typing: cat /var/log/XFree* | grep "Using config file:" and then
 instead edit the file stated in the log.
 � Now, in the editor find the section Files and the lines with
 FontPath, just add FontPath "/yourwinpartition/windows/fonts/" at
 the bottom of this list. (yourwinpartition must be replaced with
 the mount point of your windows partition)
 � cd /winpartition/windows/fonts
 � ttmkfdir > fonts.scale
 � mkfontdir
 This will make all the fonts on your Windows partition work correctly
 in X.
 There you go. You will now have all of your TrueType fonts working. If
 you want to add fonts, just move/copy those [*.ttf files] into the
 aforementioned directory, and repeat the process.
 Netscape has problems with these fonts, you have to check the "Allow
 Scaling" setting in the Fonts dialog, don't feel distracted by the
 fact that it only shows font sizes 0 and 12. Mozilla has no such
 problems. Opera neither.
 The mkfontdir executable should be included with your XFree 4.x
 If you are missing ttmkfdir, you can obtain it here:

One of the most important factors in website optimization is your title tag. This is written in the HTML code for your page in the "head" section. Many companies make the mistake of simply using their company name on every page of their site. This is a costly error, since today, search engines use the title plus key words in your content, more than ever to determine your standings. Here are some tips for getting better standings through the proper use of title tags.
In addition to ranking, your title tag will appear in the title bar of web browsers for visitors who open your page. Having a descriptive title tag is important for visitors as well as for search engines.
A Word About Keywords
Before building any web site or even any web page, it is important that you choose 3 or 4 prime key words and a number of lesser words as well. The web is full of keyword selection tools, but we suggest you begin with an excellent keyword tool that is free from Google. We cannot cover this process in this article, but we have other articles that go into this critical area. For each page of your site, select two or three major keywords you believe people will use to find your page in the search engines.
What To Put In Your Tag
Many web sites just have the company name in the title tag. This is great if you are so well known that people will use your name to search when they want to find your site. For example, www.cocacola.com. However, if your company name is less well known than Coca Cola, GE, IBM and others you will do far better to put your name, your city and two or three of your primary keywords. An example for my company web-star.biz might be , "web-star marketing affordable consulting". This title has about 60 characters. It describes the prime keyword for the page and identifies the company name.
If you are going for a local market, we suggest you include your area such as Denver or Denver CO or CO because more and more searches on the internet (about 30% in Nov 2008) are searches for local products and services. It is far easier to get to the top of the search engine pile for a city or state than for the world as there is less competition.
Proper Length
We suggest that you limit your title tag to 65 characters or less as that is the limit most search engines display. Don't waste any characters using "and" or other words that take up space in the prime area.
Critical Title Errors To Avoid
There are three common title errors that really cost. The first is no title. It is amazÃng to me how many sites have no title. This is very costly as the title is an important factor in telling the search engines what keywords to lÃst you under. The second error is using just your company name. Unless you are world famous, people will not be keying in your name to find you. Use your name but also use two or three prime keywords. The third most common error is using the same title (usually the company name) on every page in your site. Many search engines penalize sites that do this by moving them down in the ranks. More importantly, using a unique title tag for each page allows you to get lÃsted in the search engines for several keywords and make your page content very relevant to those keywords. This makes for better engine placement.
Other Considerations To Move Up
There are a few other things you can do to improve your ranking. When you put a hyperlink to another page, instead of using a phrase like "ClÃck here", use a keyword. For example if you want a visitor to click on your upcoming seminar page, use a hyperlink like "upcoming seminars". Using the keyword in a hyperlink helps the search engines rank that page and your link higher and more specifically.
Also, when you select file names for the pages on your site, use the appropriate keyword. For example, if you save your page on seminars as "p10345987.htm" you will not be as successful as if you assign a page name like "seminars.htm" which contains a prime keyword.
These are a few simple ways to improve your title tag that will result in more visibility, more traffÃc and more sales.

Dr. Fasano on New Gut & Autoimmune Research, Autism, & Clearing Up the Gluten Confusion with His New Book
Interview by Elisabeth Veltman
It was a true privilege to once again speak with Dr. Alessio Fasano, a pioneer in the research and treatment of celiac disease, other gluten related disorders, and autoimmunity. Dr. Fasano is the Chief of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition at Massachusetts General Hospital, and is the Director of the Center for Celiac Research, which he founded in 1996. He is also one of the most beloved figures in the gluten-free and celiac community. His passion for his work and his love for people are absolutely palpable. He is tireless and uses a rare combination of science and art in the way he approaches his research. He can break down a very complex subject into picturesque language, and is an absolute joy to interview.
My first interview with Dr. Fasano was in December of 2011, after he and his research team discovered a "new food allergy" called gluten sensitivity in April of that year. During the interview, one of the most interesting and shocking facts he discussed was that no one has the ability to digest "gluten," a term that was just becoming a household word at the time. In that interview, he offered some of the reasons why so many people are affected by the "gliadin" class of proteins found in gluten-based grains like wheat, rye, barley, and other grains within the grass genus Triticum (read more). Dr. Fasano became recognized around the world when he published a study on the dramatic rise of celiac disease in the 2003 Annals of Medicine, and even before this when he discovered "zonulin", a protein in the human body that regulates the permeability of the body's tissues, including the intestine. Zonulin causes the intestinal wall to open and close as required by the body to keep nutrients in and harmful stuff out. Too much zonulin seems to cause the intestinal walls to stay open, allowing other allergens and substances into the body, alerting the immune system, and giving credence to the term, "leaky gut." This discovery led researchers to an interesting pattern: people in the acute stages of celiac disease have increased zonulin levels. His research links increased zonulin levels to the development of celiac as well as other autoimmune diseases. Additionally, since celiac disease is the only autoimmune disease where a clear trigger (gluten) is known, Dr. Fasano's research will benefit all autoimmune research, as it will help scientists find the triggers to diseases like type 1 diabetes, multiple sclerosis, and rheumatoid arthritis and could pave the way to a cure.
Read about his new study here: How to predict the onset of celiac disease & how gut bacteria influences autoimmunity.
Dr. Fasano has been interviewed and quoted in hundreds of publications including The New York Times, The Washington Post, NPR, Bloomberg News, and the The Los Angeles Times; and has been featured on television on shows like "Good Morning America."
I was very excited to learn about his new book called, "Gluten Freedom" which was published this week, and authored with the help of writer Susie Flaherty. His book will help dispel some of the myths that have arisen around gluten related disorders. These myths and misunderstandings have caused quite a stir (in other words: argument) in the gluten-free community and in the media, so it will be very interesting to see what Dr. Fasano has to say. The book will also discuss some of the exciting research that he and his team have done and are doing, including studies on the microbiome in the gut and how that protects us from disease, and the gut's relationship to the brain. The book is available now on amazon.com.
Our interview helps answer some of the questions and concerns that The Tender Foodie receives from readers about the confusion in celiac diagnosis, the importance of early diagnosis, a new term called "the gluten sensitivity spectrum", the dangers of cheating on your diet, the relationship between gluten and autism, and the propensity for developing autoimmune disease because of gluten sensitivity or celiac disease. He also gives a few more highlights into the delicious morsels of information that we can find in his book.
Celiac Testing
TENDER FOODIE: When we last spoke two and a half years ago, we discussed how to get tested for celiac disease. You had mentioned that 4 out of 5 markers is the new standard for a celiac diagnosis, and that following this standard might help avoid a biopsy. Has anything changed since then?
DR. FASANO: At that time we were discussing a proposal to the medical community that we change the existing criteria to the 4 out of 5 marker algorithm.
We had decided that we needed to invent an algorithm that addressed patients who were exceptions in the celiac community. In reality, 80% of patients will fulfill the old criteria, but there were many patients who fell through the cracks when it came to diagnosis. One year after we spoke last, this new algorithm (the 4 out of 5 markers) became official in the European community and is now accepted worldwide. The method has been reviewed using an evidence-based method by the medical community at large.
NOTE: The method has been reviewed by: European Society of Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition
TENDER FOODIE: Many of my readers are confused when they hear that the small intestinal biopsy is the "gold standard" for celiac diagnosis. They often ask – can there be a false negative? Can surgeons miss the part of the small intestine that is diseased, and therefore misdiagnose a patient?
DR. FASANO: We don't call the biopsy the "gold standard" anymore. In fact, it is not the silver standard, nor even the copper standard! One main reason is that someone with celiac disease may have no damage to the small intestine. Not yet.
Two years ago, we didn't have the strong screening tests that we do now.
NOTE: Watch this page for updates on testing for celiac disease and other food allergies and sensitivities.
TENDER FOODIE: Is celiac disease the only disease that can destroy the small intestine? If not, what else can?
DR. FASANO: Infections, viruses, and other inflammation can destroy the villi in the small intestine, too. In fact, for some of the people who have it, the AIDS virus can be quite devastating to the small intestine. Radiation from cancer treatments can also destroy the villi in the small intestine.
Young kids can have a list of diseases that can affect the gut, as well, damaging the small intestine, such as Cow's milk (lactose) intolerance, parasitic infections, rotovirus, and autoimmune enteropathy.
TENDER FOODIE: You've mentioned in past interviews that the small intestine can regenerate itself. Is there ever a point of no return? A point where the small intestine can no longer regenerate?
DR. FASANO: It takes 3-5 days for the small intestine to regenerate itself because within the blood system, we have the capability to continually regenerate. Intestinal cells constantly have to replace themselves, so this is a natural process that continually is happening.
There is no "point of no return." The regenerative stem cells are in what we call "the crypts." These are depressions in the small intestine where the stem cells live. These crypts actually expand themselves in people who have untreated celiac in order to create more regenerative cells. The crypts can get overwhelmed with demand in people who have untreated celiac.
In other words, it's normal to have 100 cells die, and 100 cells regenerate on a regular basis. With celiac disease, cells die early, and stem cells can't keep up with the regeneration process, so the crypts where the stem cells live expand to try to keep up with the need for new cells.
NOTE: In other words, if a person with celiac disease is not on a gluten-free diet, the crypts keep expanding to try to keep up with the die off of the villi, but cannot, so the destruction of the villi continues, and more damage to the small intestine occurs.
TENDER FOODIE: In our last interview, you had mentioned that, "We don't know all of the necessary genes to develop Celiac Disease; however, HLA DQ2 and/or DQ8 are absolutely necessary to develop the disease."
How common is it to have a negative celiac panel, but a positive biopsy of the small intestine? And simply to clarify again, can you have a diagnosis of celiac disease without the aforementioned genes?
DR. FASANO: It is very rare to have celiac disease without these genes. That is why we have developed the 4 out of 5 markers. I mentioned before that the biopsy of the small intestine is no longer the gold standard, and can be avoided if the other 4 markers are present. But, if you have symptoms and a positive serology (antibodies are showing up in your blood test) in view of a negative HLA, you cannot avoid a biopsy, because at this point, we don't know if the patient has gluten sensitivity or celiac disease. For instance, a negative serology (zero antibodies in the blood) plus symptoms (you get sick from consuming gluten) plus a negative HLA (the DQ2 / DQ8 genes are not present) is most likely gluten sensitivity and not celiac disease.
TENDER FOODIE: What about antibodies to the small intestine itself?
DR. FASANO: Positive or negative serology is just a test for the autoantibodies against tTG. There is an anti-enterocyte antibody test that is available that measures antibodies against your small intestine. However, it is not routinely performed and not widely available in labs. This condition is extremely rare.
TENDER FOODIE: Here is one of the most common questions that I receive often. Some readers who have been diagnosed with gluten sensitivity and even those with celiac disease have mentioned that they "cheat" on their diets and once in a while eat their favorite gluten-filled foods. I always shudder when I hear this. Can you tell us the rules on diet for both celiac and gluten sensitivity?
DR. FASANO: For people with celiac disease, cheating is an absolute NO-NO. it is like diabetes. If a diabetic skips insulin he/she will be in big trouble. The same for those with celiac disease, cheating is not an option.
For people with gluten sensitivity, we don't know yet what cheating will do to the body. People appear to have different thresholds. Some people who are gluten sensitive (not celiac) can't tolerate even a trace of gluten. Others people with gluten sensitivity (again, not celiac) can tolerate it occasionally. There appears to be a spectrum of tolerance for those with gluten sensitivity, so, unlike celiac, you need to be as strict as your body requires.
TENDER FOODIE: There are a lot of mom's with celiac disease or with the disease in their families who would like to know if gluten can be transferred through breast milk?
DR. FASANO: Yes, gluten can be transferred via breast milk.
TENDER FOODIE: Can you develop other autoimmune diseases either from untreated celiac disease or untreated gluten sensitivity? Also, have researchers gathered the statistics on whether or not DQ8 celiacs have a greater number of other autoimmune diseases than DQ2 or vice versa?
DR. FASANO: There are two schools of thought. Here are a couple of examples.
The first school says that if you have X number of genes that put you at risk for celiac, but are also born with Y # of genes for Hashimotos (a thyroid condition), for instance, then you are likely to get Hashimotos.
The 2nd school of thought says that untreated celiac disease leads to other autoimmune diseases, but you might reduce this risk of other autoimmune diseases if the celiac disease is caught early.
TENDER FOODIE: Do the celiac genes need to be expressed or triggered in order to develop other autoimmune diseases?
DR. FASANO: Here is another way to put it: Again, if you develop celiac disease and have complications from other autoimmune disorders, by default the celiac genes are expressed. So if you believe that other autoimmune disorders are due to untreated celiac disease, the answer would be yes, the genes must be triggered.
Here are some of the statistics for those with celiac disease who are at risk for other types of autoimmune diseases:
15/20% of celiacs are at risk for Hashimotos (A thyroid disease)
7-10% of celiacs are at risk for Diabetes
5% at risk for Auto Immune Hepatities Herpetiformas (A serious skin rash)
2-3% at risk for Sjögren's syndrome
For both of these schools of thought, you can't make a celiac diagnosis without discovering intestinal damage. However, progressive thinkers say it doesn't matter if the celiac is activated, or if the intestines are damaged or not, the person still could have celiac disease now and damage later in life. We need a third option where a diagnosis should come before the onset of celiac disease. We are more focused on prevention now than we have been in the past.
A study of children under the age of 2 in Sweden showed that the intestines of the celiac children who went on a gluten-free diet went back to normal, but those who were untreated -- almost all of these kids' intestines had damage. The study suggests that there is an opportunity for early prevention because of early diagnosis.
TENDER FOODIE: What about gluten sensitivity? Is that a precursor to autoimmune disease as well?
DR. FASANO: Gluten sensitivity is not an autoimmune disease, but I would not be shocked if we eventually find a link between it and autoimmune diseases.
NOTE: After the interview I followed up on this statement, "I would not be shocked to find a link between gluten sensitivity and autoimmune disease", as it is quite a powerful one, to confirm that this was exactly what he said. Dr. Fasano verified this statement.
TENDER FOODIE: There are some people with celiac disease who do not seem to get better even when strictly adhering to a gluten-free diet. Could you talk about why?
DR. FASANO: Yes. There are some people who don't respond to a gluten-free diet. This is a condition called Refractory Sprue. Refractory Sprue is defined by a persistent or recurrent malabsorptive symptoms and villous atrophy despite strict adherence to a gluten-free diet*. Most people with celiac disease do well on a gluten-free diet, but this is a small group who does not respond to strict adherence to it, and continue to have gut damage and symptoms. The immune system doesn't even need to be instigated by gluten anymore in these patients. We also refer to these patients as "non-responsive celiacs" and this condition needs to be studied more carefully.
NOTE: In plain language, "malabsorption" refers to the inability of the small intestine to absorb nutrients because of damage to the villi. "Villous atrophy" simply means that the part of the small intestine that absorbs the nutrients (the intestinal villi) is being eroded or destroyed.
TENDER FOODIE: I've heard that you have a new diet that is successful for non-responsive celiac patients?
DR. FASANO: Yes! It's called the Fasano Diet, although I wish they didn't call it that!
TENDER FOODIE: Why not?
DR. FASANO: Oh, it was a team effort. It is a diet for everyone and not for me!
TENDER FOODIE: That's funny, I love it! Tell me a little about this Fasano diet.
DR. FASANO: The patient is on the diet for 3-6 months only so that the immune system can have time to recalibrate itself, and calm down.
TENDER FOODIE: is this similar to GAPS or the Specific Carbohydrate Diet? And what is your opinion on these diets?
DR. FASANO: I don't have an opinion either way on these diets. The bottom line is to be in favor of the quality of life of the patient. The difference is that the diet we've created allows all fish, vegetables, olive oil, and only one grain: rice. Rice is the only grain that is completely gluten-free. We are going back to the way our grand parents used to eat, and the ingredients allowed in the diet are all whole, unprocessed foods that are naturally gluten-free.
TENDER FOODIE: How does inflammation factor into the immune response for gluten sensitivity? Can you review how this works for readers who do not have celiac, but are reacting to gluten?
DR. FASANO: You need to make a clear distinction between celiac disease and the immune system's attack on other tissues, like the thyroid. Gluten (or more specifically, "gliadin") is inflammatory because it cannot be digested by any human (read more here). If gluten is ingested, it causes a leaky gut**. If the gut doesn't heal after ingestion of the gluten, it starts a war that has collateral damage of some kind. If that war is confined to the intestine, then the distress is in the function of the intestine.
However, sometimes the immune cells, or the soldiers in the war, leave the intestine and then attack other types of tissues, like those in the gallbladder, thyroid, and brain. Inflammation because of gluten can even be a factor in diseases like autism and schizophrenia.
NOTE: "Leaky Gut" is where too much zonulin (see first paragraph) actually opens the normally tight junctures of the small intestine letting undigested particles that are too large to be absorbed properly, into the system.
TENDER FOODIE: Many people ask about a gluten-free diet for kids with autism. Since we are on that subject, can you address the effectiveness of a gluten-free diet as a tactic?
DR. FASANO: This is a controversial field and has been looked at by researchers for many years. The paradigm of celiac and autism does not really fit: there is another Swedish study has found no link between celiac disease and autism. However, there may be other types of gluten reactions that could be at play. We don't know whether this is part of the general rise in gluten sensitivity throughout the population, or not. The real issue is that autism is very complex. Researchers are starting to accept that autism can have different causes, including genes, toxins, vaccines, or food intolerance like gluten sensitivity. There is no single magic bullet, and the approach to each case must be customized. Twenty out of 100 autistic kids respond to a gluten-free diet, but if you can identify the cause and the triggers of any complex disease, and isolate the biomarkers associated, this is a much better approach. We are just scratching the surface, but this gives us a lot of food for thought.
TENDER FOODIE: This is really fascinating and very helpful, thank you. I have to ask, although I know you don't have all of the answers to this as this is not specifically part of your research, I'd love your opinion. Have you found any link between the "new" pesticide producing GMO's and the rise of gluten-related disorders?
DR. FASANO: We don't know enough to make that determination. But I don't think they are driving the rise in celiac disease because celiac disease has increased dramatically in many countries, including the European countries who ban these GMO's. We still have not found the cause of the rise in gluten-related disorders.
NOTE: After our interview, I ran across a proposal for a study from research scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). This was forwarded to Dr. Fasano's team for comment at a later date, should it be appropriate.
STUDY ABSTRACT (PARTIAL): Europe provides disturbing confirmation that glyphosate residues are prevalent in the Western diet (Hoppe, 2013). This study involved exclusively city dwellers, who are unlikely to be exposed to glyphosate except through food sources. Despite Europe's more aggressive campaign against GMO foods than that in the Americas, 44% of the urine samples contained quantifiable amounts of glyphosate. Diet seems to be the main source of exposure. One can predict that, if a study were undertaken in the U.S., the percentage of the affected population would be much larger.

TENDER FOODIE: Let's talk about your book. Will you tell us a little more about it and why you wrote it?
DR. FASANO: Yes! We are very excited. The book summarizes our seventeen years of experience in research and how we've had to shift the paradigm. At first, no one was interested. Now, the subjects of gluten and celiac disease are very popular, and the facts are getting distorted. The book will help dispel some myths and clarify the facts, as we know them now.
TENDER FOODIE: What is some of the newest research that people can find in the book?
DR. FASANO: There is an entire section devoted to the brain. We've learned so much about the brain in recent years that is very interesting. We've also done new research on the gut and the microbiome and the cross talk between our genes and the gut bacteria. We may be born with a certain gene for a particular disease, but our gut bacteria may influence whether or not that gene gets triggered. We would like to see if we are able to locate a single biomarker before the gene gets triggered, and therefore prevent the disease from occurring. We published a paper on this, I'll have someone send it to you, it is a very ground breaking area of research.
Here is the paper: Pathophysiology of the Intestinal Paracellular Pathway
TENDER FOODIE: Oh terrific, thank you. And thank you so very much for working through these reader questions with me, Dr. Fasano. It has been such a privilege to be able to speak to you again.
DR. FASANO: You are most welcome.

TSEU General Assembly 2016
WHAT IS GENERAL ASSEMBLY: The TSEU General Assembly is a statewide meeting of elected delegates and other TSEU members and families.It is held every even-numbered year. The General Assembly considers and adopts the broad strategic plans that guide decision-making in TSEU for the next two years. These plans are generally contained within the Organizing Program and Political Program. Specific legislative goals for the upcoming session of the Texas Legislature are also contained in the Political Program. The General Assembly also makes decisions and adopts positions on various specific questions, including election of TSEU candidates for the ERS and TRS boards of trustees.
All members present at the General Assembly can participate in debates, discussions, and meetings. The final vote on issues is restricted to elected delegates. The General Assembly marks the beginning of the mobilization campaign to win specific victories. The enthusiasm and determination that begins with General Assembly allows members to go back out to our cities and towns ready to do the organizing and mobilizing it takes to win. Finally, the General Assembly is the best opportunity for TSEU members from across the state to meet one another, renew friendships, and enjoy the companionship of fellow TSEU members and families. (take a look back at General Assembly 2014)
When and where: The 2016 TSEU General Assembly will be held October 14-16, at the Best Western Plus Austin City Hotel (corner of I-35 and Oltorf).
Post-banquet Saturday Dance/Party: This family friendly, casual dance and is open to all members. It's a tradition and one of the highlights of the weekend.
Rooms and meals: Rooms will be at the Best Western. People registering late may be assigned to over-flow rooms at other motels as needed. Rooms will be double occupancy (shared) unless you arrange and pay for a private room at additional cost. Meals include supper Friday; breakfast, lunch, and the banquet on Saturday; and breakfast on Sunday. Check with TSEU for details.
Child care: Child care will be available for meeting times only. Families are responsible for their children the rest of the time. You must notify the TSEU Austin office by September 13 if you will need child care.
Covers meals, registration, and double occupancy room (Add $126 for a private room)
ALL OTHERS (includes family members and delegate alternates who are not replacing a delegate):
Room: $126 shared or $252 private
Meals: $60 including banquet, $20 banquet only
Registration: $20 (includes t-shirt)
Other costs: $15 for Lobby Day 2017 bus ticket (optional)
Reimbursable travel expenses: (delegates only) from work locations outside a 200-mile circle around Austin. Up to $50 in travel-related expenses. Delegates can combine reimbursements. Contact your TSEU office for details. No other expenses are reimbursable.
Registration deadline:
Everyone planning to attend must complete a registration form and pay all fees by September 15.
Delegates are elected on the basis of 1 per 50 members, based on May '16 membership. Delegates will be elected by groups according to the Executive Board-approved list.
Qualifications for Delegates: The nominee must be a member in good standing as of May. In good standing means listed on the May membership report and paying dues on current schedule, or signs upgrade when nominated. The nominee must be an active employee or retiree from a unit organized by TSEU, and must work at or be retired from a location in that delegate group. Associate members are not eligible to serve as delegates. A nominee must agree to serve as a delegate, if elected.
Qualifications to Vote for Delegates: All TSEU members in good standing as of May or members who have signed an upgrade form prior to the election are eligible to vote. Members may vote only in their assigned delegate group. Upgrade forms will be available at the election site.
Nominations: A member may be nominated by any member in that delegate group, including his/herself. Nominations will be taken at any time on or before the voting day and can be made in 3 different ways:
In person at a meeting or at the election
By mail, addressed to the TSEU organizing office that covers the area
By phone or in person to a TSEU organizer responsible for that delegate election
In all cases, the member making the nomination must identify his/herself and be in good standing. To nominate by telephone you must speak directly to a TSEU organizer. No nominations by fax or email will be accepted.
Most elections will be by secret, written ballot. Members must be present to vote. Voting will take place only at announced times and places. When it is not practical, due to distances between work locations, to conduct elections in person, the election will be by mail ballot. Members in groups that vote by mail will receive additional information. You may vote for the number of delegates to which the group is entitled, and can only vote once for any nominee. Alternates are those receiving highest numbers of votes after all delegate positions are filled.

Fixing the Allowed memory size exhausted error
A common error with Open Source Software like WordPress, Moodle, and Joomla is the php "Allowed memory size error." Increasing the memory limit is an easy solution. This memory_limit can be changed in the php.ini in the public_html folder in your hosting account. This error can creep up in your website during the normal development process. The following is an example of the error:
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 268435465 bytes exhausted
(tried to allocate 280559520) in Unknown on line 0
This is due to php variable data being stored in the memory that is not cleared while the php scripts are running.
For those who code their own sites: Coders use the unset() function to clear variable data that is no longer needed; however, with open source software, you will not want to alter any code.
How to fix the "Allowed memory size Error"
The php memory resource can be increased in the php.ini located in the public_html. The following steps will explain how to set the php.ini to allow a larger amount of memory use.
- Login to your cPanel
- Go to the File Manager.
Select the Web root (public_html/www) directory and click Go.
- Find the php.ini file in the public_html.
Note! If you do not have a php.ini in your public_html files, you can have our tech support staff restore the php.ini to your public_html directory.
Open the php.ini with the code editor.
- Find the following section in the php.ini file.
max_execution_time = 30
max_input_time = 60
memory_limit = 128M
Try increase the memory_limit value to 256M.If the php memory_limit is already at 256M, you can increase it to 512M.
Save the changes.
- In order for your memory limit to take effect you will need to make the php.ini recursive.
Important! Making the php.ini recursive is an important step. If you do not know how to do this, please see our article on Make the php.ini recursive in the .htaccess.
Now visit the site. You should not see the "Allowed memory size" error anymore. If the error still shows on your website, there may be a setting within the software itself that is overriding the change or the php.ini in the public-html may be overriden by another setting elsewhere. If this is the case, you can contact our our tech support staff to have them look into the error further.

2016-10-06 11:07 am
I recommend enabling error reporting, as there may be additional problems occurring. This may provide more detailed clues into the issue.
If you are using a CMS (such as WordPress, Drupal, Joomla, etc.) you can put them in debug mode in the config file, or enable error reporting in the dashboard.
Thank you,

If you need more than 600MB of memory you may have a memory leak. These can be difficult to troubleshoot. Do you know the cause of needing so much memory?
2016-05-03 10:40 pm
All you have to do to fix this is change your PHP version via cPanel.
With some hosts, this is VERY simple.

I already have changed the php.ini and increased the memory limit. but still showing that. My website is based on Opencar and running Journal2 theme.
Thank you
2016-02-18 7:31 am
Hello Mostak,
You said that you changed the PHP.INI, but what exact setting? There's also a max file upload size setting. Additionally, make sure that the PHP.INI file that you're modifying is the one inside the folder of the website that's running. There can be multiple PHP.INI files.
I hope that helps to answer your question! If you require further assistance, please let us know!

Hi dear,
I fixed the problem, I used the search bar and search all file "php.ini" and edit memory_limit = 64M to memory_limit = 256M. And its all fixed.
And I have got another solution from opencart suport team. They said Delete the last file and use FTP uploder to upload. I aplied both of them. Now my website is working well.
But I think the firss solution is best.
Thank you all.

It appears your memory level is set to 64M which is standard, and not considered high at all. Was there another setting you were referring to?
2016-01-26 9:58 pm
I did as you recommended (thank you). However, prior to that I DID find two files that were humongous in the directory on the website. I deleted the two of them and was then able to upload pictures. I had no idea those were as big as they were when i uploaded them. Thank you very much for your response. I sincerely appreciate it. I hope to turn to this group again if I need help later...

This can be fixed in:
WHM > Service Configuration > PHP Configuration Editor > memory_limitSet it to 512M
2016-01-18 10:14 pm
KingKislev, we don't have those same options in our WHM. We have 'Server' Configuration' but not 'Service Configuration', and 'Server Configuration' doesn't lead to a 'PHP Configuration' option :(
When we go into our CPanel we can locate a 'PHP Configuration' option, but we're not allowed to edit it, and we can see that the memory limits in that are are less than what we have designate in our php.ini file.
Grr. In Motion is limiting us somwhere, and even after calling support we're still limited. Anyone else know where we can access these limits and increase what InMotion is limiting us at?
Thank you!
2016-01-19 9:48 am
Hello Jenna, are you logging into WHM as user "root" or as reseller? If not, do you have root access? If there are any options you are not seeing in WHM then privileges are the likely explanation. If you have a VPS or Dedicated plan you can request root access.
2016-01-19 2:04 pm
Ug. Beyond frustrating. We have had 2 phone calls with support this week regarding this issue where we have drilled the heck out of the techs trying to find out how to solve this limitation issue and we're outright told...
"The php.ini file is all there is, there is nothing else I can help you with."
Last night we were given that exact response despite showing them this article and pushing for additional options regarding server configuration. We were incredibly persistent, and they basically told us we were confused and this didn't exist.
Why would they not just tell us of this root access? We have been VPS customers for 4 years. Why the run around?
2016-01-19 6:51 pm
Sorry for the confusion. We certainly don't intend to hide anything from our customers or put you through multiple Support contacts. I hope the article on root access helped you understand how user privileges work.
2016-01-22 12:00 am
Our account now says that we have been enabled root access, however our WHM isn't any different :\ So we still don't have the options that KingKislev describes:
WHM > Service Configuration > PHP Configuration Editor > memory_limit
We're so confused?? It feels like someone at InMotion is intentionally trying to not let us increase our memory :( Why is this so hard lol?? Can anyone help us? Phone support has been insanely frustrating and states this option we are seeking is an imaginary unicorn in neverland.
2016-01-23 3:17 am
Hello Jenna,
Are you sure you are logging in with the Root user as in using root as the username and the password would be the one from the AMP.
Best Regards,
TJ Edens
2016-01-27 4:21 pm
We're legitimately so confused at this point. We requested root access. We were then sent to a screen that said "Your reqest has been submitted". Nothing ever appened after that. No notification, no email, no steps on what to do next. So we called support again, and they said "Root access is enabled". So we look into our account, and the "Reset Root Access Password" icon is there, but we never recevied anything regarding a first access that we would need to reset?. So we reset the password, and then we login to WHM using that password, with our original user, and it logs us in, but again, WHM still looks the same as it did prior to requesting root acess. That option we are trying to find is not there :( We feel like we're going in a million circles, and phone support doesn't seem to be informaed about your root access. We're so lost :( Is there any we can contact you specifically through a support ticket? This is crazy frustrating at this point.
2016-01-28 8:31 am
Hello Jenna,
We're sorry to hear that you're confused about using the Root access. Sometimes, it's hard to visually understand it if you have never used root access on your account before. Literally, "root" is the user name you should be using to login to the server. You should have received the password to login to root. Root access is given only upon request, but no information is provided with it's use because it provides COMPLETE access to your system. There's too much that you can do with it which makes it very difficult to provide instructions on its use. You can use this tutorial to see a short list of things you can do with root access. Bear in mind that due to the "power" of root access, you should be cautious if you're not familiar with using it. If you need some specific done that you are not familiar with, you can still request it through live technical support via email/phone/chat.
The support center team is separate from the live technical support team. If you have any questions that require immediate attention, please contact our live technical support team. You can also post questions or leave comments on the website.
I hope that helps to answer your questions! If you require further assistance, please let us know!

2016-02-03 9:56 pm
Hi Arnel,
I think this is the issue, we were never sent any information regarding the root access. No email, no notice, no password, no user, etc. When we called phone support they were clearly uninformed on their end as they told us there was no separate access and to just login to WHM with our main account user. :( So Phone support doesn't appear to be up to speed on this.
2016-02-04 11:38 am
Hello Jenna,
Thank you for contacting us. Sorry to hear about your experiences. Our Support team (on all levels) should be familiar with root access, and we will follow up with the specific associates you contacted recently.
I confirmed your request for root access was received, and provisioned on "2016-01-19 13:05:41" and an email (including your root password) should have been sent to your primary contact email address. You can view, or update your email address in AMP at any time. I also recommend checking your spam box, as it may have been flagged by email filters.
Thank you,
2016-01-31 8:00 pm
Enter "PHP Configuration Editor" in the search box in WHM, can you confirm nothing comes up?
2016-01-27 3:09 am
Jenna, if they enabled root access it means they added your user account to the "wheel group", so you can access root files and folders in SSH. It doesn't mean you can log into WHM as root, you still need the password for the user "root" to log in to WHM then you'll be able to see those settings I mentioned. You can still do the same via SSH, but it's a bit more complex.If you have a VPS then I don't see why you shouldn't have the root access in WHM.
2016-01-11 4:11 pm
We have completed these steps and unfortunately it seems we are still being limited somewhere.We need to increase Max post size in addition to memory, so we have this in our php.ini:
memory_limit = 512Mpost_max_size = 512M
When we do a test of our php info, these limits show up as what we have, however the Revolution Slider plugin is still reading that we are limit at this...
memory_limit = 512Mpost_max_size = 8M
The post Max Size at 8 is the major issue. We have contacted the Revolution Slider support, and they said this is happening on our end and that we need to contact In Motion to see where this is limited still. We are VPS customers, so we should have more than enough space/limit on our hosting plan to allow what we are trying to do
2016-01-11 6:17 pm
Hello Jenna,
You will want to be sure your php.ini file is set to recursive, otherwise the settings will only work in that folder.
Kindest Regards,
Scott M
2016-01-18 10:02 pm
We actually already had it set to recursive, as we mention we completed all of the steps in this article :) We ended up calling In Motion support and they had to have a tier 2 tech adjust some additional settings. It was being limited somewhere else aside from the php.ini For some reason it's still being limited though. :( We're VPS customers, to avoid this kind of issue with memory limits so we're a little frustrated.
2016-01-07 11:31 am
Thank you for the reply...
I think I didn't make it clear enough in my last reply. Or I really need an example on how to do this.
My web server is at:
C: \wwwroot\PHPInfo.php (not the real file name)
My web pages are at:
My php.ini file is at
Are you saying I need to install PHP.ini into C:\wwwroot\wood\webpages
"Make sure the files you want you hope to affect are in the same directory or subdirectories of the php.ini file"
Even though I currently have PHP installed in C:\PHP\php.ini
are you saying I should move the php.ini file into the webpages folder?
Please give me an example of what this should look like.
Webpages folder - domain installed
PHP installed folder
php.ini file
Thank you,
2016-01-07 5:10 pm
Hello docfxit,
Thank you for contacting us. To test if the changes you are making in the php.ini file are recursive, create a phpinfo page in a folder for your website. For example: C:\wwwroot\wood\webpages\folder-name (be sure to replace "folder-name" with the name of your actual folder).
But, keep in mind our guides are geared toward people who are hosted on our servers, so your specific configuration may differ. For example, some PHP handlers do not support .htaccess rules. If you are not sure which handler you are using, here is a link to a similar question.
Thank you,
2016-01-07 11:36 pm
Thank you for the example.
I now have the phpinfo.php page in a folder called C:\wwwroot\wood\webpages\wp-admin
What should I see in phpinfo.php to know that it is setup correctly to be recursive?
Thank you,
2016-01-08 10:46 am
Hello Docfxit,
If you make changes to the php.ini file that would be located around this area (C:\wwwroot\wood\webpages) and it shows up in that phpinfo.php file then the recursive is setup correctly.
Best Regards,
TJ Edens
2016-01-04 11:20 pm
Thank you for you reply...
I'm not sure how to do what you are suggesting.
My web server is at:
Path#1 + \wwwroot\PHPInfo.php (not the real file name)
My php.ini file is at
Different path#2 \PHP\php.ini
I have an environment variable with the path to the php.ini file.
Could you please give me an example of what path I would put the PHPInfo.php file in and how can I set the URL to run it.
Thank you,
2016-01-05 8:37 pm
A recursive file affects the directories beneath it. Make sure the files you want you hope to affect are in the same directory or subdirectories of the php.ini file.
The path you will take to the phpinfo.php page would be the same as the example you provided -- with the correct domain and file path of course.
Beyond that I'm not sure what part of Scott's reply you were having trouble with. From the examples you provided it seems you have the right idea.
2015-12-31 9:06 pm
I see in PHPInfo that the memory_limit = 512M
I don't know where to look to see if the recursive is working.
2016-01-04 9:28 am
Hello Docfixit,
To test the settings, you would need to set a phpinfo page in a folder under the one that has the php.ini file. If the setting shows up correctly, that proves the file is recursive.
Kindest Regards,

2015-12-31 4:00 pm

Do you have any suggestions on how to fix it?
Thank you,
2015-12-31 5:14 pm
Hello Docfxit,
Thank you for contacting us. If you are hosted on our servers, I recommend using a phpinfo page to verify the changes were made.

Dear Scott M
We have go through your article and make the php.ini file recursive but still same memory error is coming and if we increase the memory limit then again after refresh it says us to increase more and more.
Please see the below url where error coming :
Error : hello
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 536870912 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 3587419385 bytes) in /home/websocialite/public_html/facebookwebs/src/facebook-sdk-v5/autoload.php on line 80 "
After doing the php.ini file recursive, please check below php info page which we did after your suggestion but still the above error coming..
Kindly suggest us best possible solution as we are having dedicated apache server..
in the.htaccess file in line no. 65 : this we have putted :
suPHP_ConfigPath /home/websocialite/public_html/php.ini
Waiting very urgent please..
2015-09-28 1:31 pm
Hello Brahm,
I am at a loss as to the specific cause of your issue. I would look into the server itself but cannot as you are not one of our customers. You may want to check with your host's support team and see if they can assist by looking into your account on their server.

We have run the similar script on other servers also and there it is running...
Other server links are :
We know that it is coming due to some server settings in whm, please suggest us for the linux server settings for this issue. It is very urgent...
2015-09-23 2:29 pm
Hello Brahm Pratap Rana,
Sorry for the problem with the SDK. The error you're showing indicates it's running on a Godaddy server (with whom we are not associated). However, you may want to try changing the php.ini file that is local to that domain on your web server. The steps described above would be what you need to make that change (most likely to memory limit). In addition, you may want to make the php.ini file recursive using the .htaccess setting for the domain. If you don't have a PHP.INI file then you may want create one or speak with your host's tech support to obtain one.
I hope this helps to answer your question, please let us know if you require any further assistance.
Arnel C.
2015-09-24 12:36 am
Dear Arnel
I would like to inform you that this is not Godaddy Server, it is dedicated server which we are managing from our end and if we increase the memory limit thru whm panel then it again says to increase more, I mean to say that it again and again after each refresh of the page ask us to increase the memory like this way i.e (tried to allocate 1145367209 bytes).
So kindly confirm us if we will make the php.ini file recursive then this error will not come.?
Also confirm us that our server administrator could make the php.ini file recursive or any programmer will make it??

Hello Brahm,
If you are using Apache server then making the php.ini recursive can be done by anyone who has access to the cPanel. We have an article on how to make php.ini recursive here.

i have this problem but if i change this numbers, only a few of my files on my website, even if i increase my memory, and it are just exel files
2015-09-17 5:50 pm
Hello Tom,
Thank you for contacting us. Make sure you are making the file recursive, as explained in Step 5 above. This allows the rule change to affect the child folders as well.
A phpinfo page can help determine if the change was made.
If this does not help, let us know the full errors you are getting.
Thank you,

Hi,In the file wamp\alias\phpmyadmin.conf just before </Directory> insert four lines below to obtain:
php_admin_value upload_max_filesize 512M php_admin_value post_max_size 512M php_admin_value max_execution_time 720 php_admin_value max_input_time 720 </Directory>
With this, I managed to import large SQL files. The largest file I actually imported was 278 MB
2015-08-12 9:28 am
Hello Imran,
If you're running WAMP, then it's not running on our servers. We can try to give you some information, but you will need to look into memory consumption, current load on your server, etc in order to determine what's causing the program to fail due to memory exhaustion. You may require more memory on the computer that you're using a server.
I know you said that the largest file you imported was 278 MB, but the problem is the amount of memory your server is using at the time that you get the memory exhaustion error. You may need to also increase the MEMORY_LIMIT value which you don't show in your comment above.
I hope this helps to answer your question, please let us know if you require any further assistance.

Hello Vimal,
Did you follow the instructions above for how to fix the error? If so, what did you set the memory to? Have you tried increasing it to a higher limit?
Kindest Regards,

2015-09-19 11:51 am
Yes i did increase the memory, it is still giving me the same error.
2014-12-22 12:53 pm
I agree, very helpful article, thanks so much for sharing
2014-11-12 1:53 am
Thanks for your description of the solution to this problem. I've read a lot of explanations of how to fix this and this was the best and it worked, in part because of your admonition to make the php.ini recursive. As it happens this also solved the "white screen of death" WP editing screen problem I was having. It turns out that was, at least for me, a memory problem, contrary to what a lot of people were saying elsewhere. So a big thank you!

This seems to be a common problem, judging by the YouTube videos and posts at OS, and depending on your Archetype, one of the patches seems to have addressed it. However, I'm still having the issue: I can rarely get my Sharpshooting Playmaker point guard to dunk in MyCAREER, in situations where he definitely should be dunking.
I've tried this suggested fix:
...but to no avail. Dunk packages are definitely equipped, and with all the grinding, I've managed to get my Driving Dunk rating up to 57 (Standing Dunk 46, Contact Dunk 55), which has allowed me to buy and assign a few more flashier packages. I also have my Vertical rating up to 72, and have tried using both the Pro Stick and the Shoot button, making sure I have enough sprint. Same issue; I can't consistently dunk in situations where my player should, and situations where I see other Sharpshooting Playmakers dunking in 2K Pro-Am.
Obviously, it's not an Archetype that should be dunking over anyone and everyone at will - that's something for the Slasher and Slasher hybrid Archetypes to enjoy - but again, compared to other players with the same build, in situations where I should be dunking, the game is not letting me throw down. It's mostly a Pro-Am and MyCAREER issue as I can dunk a little more often in The Playground (I even finished an alley-oop someone threw me the other day!) and there are no problems whatsoever when shooting around on MyCOURT.
Anyone else experiencing similar issues? Any further advice? As I said, the fix mentioned above didn't work. It looked as though it might have after hitting The Playground, but still the same story in MyCAREER. I also do have a few more upgrades I can make to Dunks and Vertical, though I need to keep grinding the level caps to get them at this juncture.

Creating A New Family by Ovide Bighetty
On this Thanksgiving Day here in the U.S., I thought I would share a link to an art project from the Christian Reformed Church in Canada that could be seen as a model for reconciliation among Native and non-Native American Christians in the U.S. I would suggest that it would be even more beautiful to see something collaborative done between artists from both of these two groups here in the U.S., but I think that an important part of that process would probably involve them working separately as well, as in this example.
I hope to write more about the reForming Relationships art tour in future posts, but thought I would go ahead and at least make you aware of it in the meantime. Please check out the wonderful images painted by Cree artist Ovide Bighetty. Indian Metis Christian Fellowship commissioned Bighetty to paint this series of paintings called Kisemanito Pakitinasuwin - The Creator's Sacrifice.
From the reForming Relationships art tour website:
About the Tour
The reForming Relationships art tour is a catalyst for building and re-building (forming and re-forming) relationships between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people in Canada. It provides opportunities to learn about Aboriginal history and culture, about the history of relationships between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people in Canada, and about the current lived experience of Aboriginal peoples in Canada. It creates space for Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people to meet and get to know each other, to engage in constructive dialogue, and to build bridges of understanding. In short, reForming Relationships is a place for fostering relationships of peace and friendship.
The way it works
The reForming Relationships art tour is a series of community-based tour stops. It began in October 2011 in Saskatoon, SK and will travel to locations across Canada over the next two years. (For a full listing of confirmed locations, see the Schedule). A small group of organizers at each tour location plans all the details of the local tour stop, with the shared goals of creating opportunities for learning and building relationships between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal peoples. This art tour is part of the Christian Reformed Church's Aboriginal Ministry in Canada.
|The Last Supper by Ovide Bighetty
Why is this necessary? Re-forming relationships
Our Creator made us, Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal peoples, to live in peace and friendship. For many years after we first met on the shores of Turtle Island/North America, we did just that. But along the winding paths of history, relationships of peace and friendship have broken down and the covenant of treaties have not been kept. Attempts to systematically eliminate Indigenous culture and identity, to assimilate Indigenous peoples into dominant Canadian culture, guided policy formation and practice, leading to all manner of harm and injustice...
The situation in which we find ourselves is indeed complex, but not impossible to overcome.
|Injustice for the Just by Ovide Bighetty
As Christians, we know that we are not limited by these powers inside of ourselves, in our communities and in our societies. Our Creator sent his son, Jesus, to make possible a new way of living in relationship with each other—a way of peace and friendship. Jesus' death and resurrection set us free to rid ourselves and our communities of unfair prejudice and racism, and to challenge unjust policies, practices and structures that allow poverty and exclusion to continue. Indeed, Jesus' death and resurrection enables us to form and re-form relationships of peace and friendship.
Kisemanito Pakitinasuwin - The Creator's Sacrifice tells this foundational Christian story of Jesus' death and resurrection - the story that makes all things new. Its vibrant imagery, familiar to some and unfamiliar to others - both Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal—invites us to re-imagine how we think about and live out the relationships between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal peoples in Canada. Through these works of art, the Spirit of our Creator invites us to live in new ways - in re-formed relationships of peace and friendship.
Finding the paths of reconciliation begins with relationships of peace and friendship. reForming Relationships provides space for these relationships to begin and to grow.

· Announcing the shortlist this week, the judges of the Man Booker prize for Fiction 2002 were unanimous that the prize is old-fashioned and needs a new image. Chairman of judges Lisa Jardine said the prize was entering "a new era" of more popular writers. Can this be the same Professor Jardine who once dismissed Jeffrey Archer's novels as "a bit weak on grammar"? Jardine, however, wasn't thinking of Archer, but of Irvine Welsh's latest, Porno, which she would have liked to consider.
"Ideally," she said, "we would have gone to a bookshop looking for books we have missed," because publishers, it seems, cannot be trusted to submit their best authors. They tended to enter only "heavyweight" and humourless books, she complained."I think there's lots of popular fiction which could easily be submitted for the Booker," opined another judge, David Baddiel, a comedian and author of popular fiction.
How things have changed. In 1991 Nicholas Mosley, a highly-regarded author whose work could not, however, be described as "popular", resigned from the Booker judging panel because the shortlist contained no "novels of ideas".
The first Booker was awarded in 1969 to PH Newby for Something to Answer For, seeing off Muriel Spark and Iris Murdoch. The judges, including Stephen Spender and Rebecca West, were chaired by the Guardian literary editor, Bill Webb. As Anthony Curtis (a Booker judge in 1984) explains in his memoir, Lit Ed, the choice of Newby "established the prize in the way it intended to continue - as an award to the best novel in absolute terms, not necessarily the one likely to give the greatest happiness to the greatest number, the benchmark that the publishing industry and booksellers would have preferred." Something to Answer For has long been out of print.
· Two men dominated Italian intellectual life in the first half of the 20th century: Benedetto Croce (1866-1952) and Giovanni Gentile (1875-1944). They were at the forefront of a remarkable cultural revolution, as David D Roberts explains in the Journal of Modern Italian Studies: "They took it for granted that their thinking was modern thought," yet today they are little more than a footnote in the history of philosophy. Why? Although they shared a common philosophical framework, they became bitter rivals. By 1923, Gentile was Mussolini's minister of education, while Croce became an outspoken anti-fascist. The split was definitive. Gentile hung on to the bitter end: he was assassinated by a partisan in 1944. After the war Croce sought involvement in the post-fascist renewal of Italy, but his association with Gentile made his name taboo in intellectual circles. He died in obscurity, aged 86. There has been a revival of interest in the Croce-Gentile tradition that raises controversial questions about Italian culture. Today, the pair are regarded by some as two poles of the same tradition while others insist that they should never be mentioned in the same breath. IP

The IABC conducts a variety of workshops and seminars throughout the year, held in conjunction with our Annual Conference and Assembly Meeting, Regional Assembly Conferences, and the IACBE Winter and Summer Accreditation Institutes.
Attendance at a self-study workshop is a requirement prior to the preparation of a self-study for first-time accreditation. Each of the IACBE's Accreditation Principles are introduced and the ways in which to document compliance with them in the self-study are explained. In addition, the key points in preparing a complete and accurate self-study document are identified, and common pitfalls to avoid are pointed out. The logistics involved with preparing for an efficient site visit are also covered.
Attendance at an assessment workshop is a requirement prior to (i) the submission of an application for candidacy status and (ii) the preparation of a self-study for reaffirmation of accreditation. This workshop focuses on how to design a comprehensive outcomes assessment plan that meets IACBE expectations for assessing student learning in your business programs and the operational effectiveness of your academic business unit. The workshop discusses the definition and purposes of outcomes assessment; describes the key points to keep in mind when preparing an assessment plan; identifies measurement instruments that can be used to assess both intended student learning outcomes and intended operational outcomes; and explains the use of outcomes assessment in measuring and advancing academic quality in your business programs. In addition, the IACBE's new assessment plan template and a comprehensive example of a completed plan are presented.
Intended student learning outcomes at the program level are statements that describe the desired learning that students should have acquired and should be able to demonstrate at the end of a program of study. This workshop will identify the characteristics of good intended student learning outcomes and will provide guidelines for writing clear and effective statements of those outcomes. The workshop will then turn to the development of evaluation rubrics for assessing student work and performance in a variety of assignments and tasks. The focus of the workshop will be on designing rubrics that can not only be used for assigning a grade or mark to an individual assignment or task, but can also be employed for the purpose of program-level assessment, i.e., for assessing the program-level intended student learning outcomes in a business program.
In this workshop, we explore seven competencies that are broadly called 'career-readiness factors' (or 'employability factors'), and how to integrate these competencies into business curricula. The competencies include (1) critical thinking/problem solving, (2) oral/written communication, (3) teamwork/collaboration, (4) information technology application, (5) leadership, (6) professionalism/work ethic, and (7) career management. Interestingly, when given a list of career-readiness factors that included technical knowledge related to the job, employers rated six items above technical knowledge. As educators, this tells us that we need to do more than provide students with a discipline-specific, knowledge-based education; we also need to help them to develop the employability skills for which employers are looking. The workshop focuses on these employability competencies and how to build them into our curricula in ways that are meaningful and that will help our graduates to be 'career ready' when they leave our institutions.
A successful accreditation review process depends on a careful, thorough, and objective site visit conducted by a team of well-trained peer reviewers. As the IACBE grows both domestically and worldwide, a corps of competent, knowledgeable site-visit evaporators becomes increasingly essential. Workshop participants will learn how to evaluate self-studies effectively and how to conduct productive and efficient site visits. At the end of the day, you will have completed the requirements necessary to be assigned to a site-visit team.
An effective site-visit team requires a skilled and capable chair who can successfully coordinate the activities of the team. This workshop will focus on the responsibilities associated with chairing an accreditation site-visit team. The workshop is intended only for those who have completed a site-visit peer reviewer training session and have been a member of a site-visit team. Participation in this workshop is by invitation only.

has been an active season so far with snakes on our little
farm. To date by June 6th, I have collected a large red bellied
water snake, an Eastern Black Racer and of course the large
Rat Snake shown in these pictures.
was fortifying a goat breeding pen adjacent to a hen house
when I heard a biddy peeping. It had fallen out of a hole
that the hens had dug out in the corner of the coop and now
the little guy was on the outside. Little did I know that
there was a battle raging on the inside of the hen house.
Just then I heard some commotion on the other side of the wall.
had let a small silky hen brood some of her eggs in that corner
just a few weeks prior and she was now happily hatching out
her first brood. I had seen her pint-size bantam puffs peeking
out from under her wings two days earlier. She grumbled as
I came close to see, letting me know that she would put up
a fight to keep me from invading her space.
what the noises in the coop might be, I recalled that my camera
was in my truck which just happened to be backed up to the
goat pen were I had been unloading fence posts only a few
feet from where I stood now. I rushed to the truck cab grabbing
my camera and went in to witness an amazing feat of pure wild
preservation instinct backed by a large rush of adrenaline
through the tiny body of this bantam hen. She was facing off with a large Green Rat Snake about four and 1/2 feet in length. I was struck by
her unmitigated defiance of this huge serpent now flicking
it's tongue to taste the scent of her brood on the air. I knew
that she stood no chance against this, powerful constrictor.
But I watched for a moment before intervening and was really
amazed to see her give her best with no compromise and no
intention of abandoning her young that huddled behind her.
The hen postured, throwing her wings out and dropping her head low to the ground to face her foe. The massive preditor lunged at her but not having been properly coiled for a good stike, he only grazed her. With this she lept into the air attempting to land soundly on his head but as she came back down, the snake having pulled back into the proper striking stance seized her. Bringing her to the ground with a loud shreik they both seemed stunned. I then lept toward the snake who was now withdrawing whith a mouth full of white down. Turns out the fluffy coat of a silky makes for a confounding deffence, clogging up a mouth full of tiny razor teeth
you enjoy these shots. I grabbed the snake as he began to
bring the confrontation to crisis for my hen. He sits in a
tank awaiting deportation as I write this.

Unmanned Systems' Vital Role in Warfare
The Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) has developed a roadmap for using unmanned aircraft, ground, and maritime systems to meet our nation's security needs especially in the Global War on Terrorism. The Unmanned Systems Roadmap (2007-2032) documents the value of these systems for carrying out such tasks as mine detection, signals intelligence, precision target designation, reconnaissance, communication, and data rely while reducing the risk to human life. The document suggests prioritizing future research, development, and procurement of unmanned systems based on needs in four areas: reconnaissance and surveillance, target identification and designation, counter-mine warfare, and CBRNE (chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, explosive) reconnaissance.

Finding Goverment Information - a Challenging Quest
OMB Watch and the Center for Democracy and Technology have released an 18 page report entitled Hiding in Plain Sight: Why Important Government Information Cannot Be Found Through Commercial Search Engines. The Web sites of many federal agencies block web crawlers from commonly-used search engines such as Google, Yahoo, Microsoft Live, and Ask. Even searches done on USA.gov can miss crucial information that Government Information Librarians know to find directly on agency Web sites, but the public might miss without expert help. To remedy the situation, the report makes the following recommendations:
- Congress should pass the E-Government reauthorization act, which would require the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to create best practices to encourage searchability of federal Web sites.
- OMB should officially recognize the importance of commercial search engines to Internet users and work with the CIO Council to adopt policies to help users find information.
- Agencies should adopt an information policy that makes public accessibility of online content and resources a priority.
- Agencies should create Sitemaps of content on their sites, with special attention given to materials stored in databases and accessible only through drop-down menus. For example, many agencies have FAQ databases that are not accessible to search crawlers but contain very succinct and useful answers to common questions.
- Agencies should review their use of robots.txt files in order to ensure they are used in the least restrictive way possible. Every effort should be made to include, rather than exclude, materials from the website, whether materials were excluded purposefully or accidentally in the past.

Day of Infamy Interviews
What did ordinary Americans think and feel following the Japanese raids on Pearl Harbor, Dec. 7, 1941? The American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress has made it possible for us to get an inkling thanks to a forward-thinking employee, Alex Lomax from the Archive of American Folk Song (now the Archive of Folk Culture, American Folklife Center). Mr. Lomax asked field workers in ten geographically diverse locations across the United States to collect "man-on-the-street" reactions to the bombing of Pearl Harbor and subsequent entry of the United States into World War II. Workers also conducted a second set of interviews in January and February 1942 to gage reactions once the initial fury died down. Both sets of interviews are available in the American Memory online collection, After the Day of Infamy.

'INTL' is the free heavyweight tune from Kennedy Jones
Saturday, May 3, 2014 at 11:43AM
Kennedy Jones has been an exciting artist to see rise to prominence. One thing that sets him apart from the rest (aside from incredible production) is his genuine appreciation for his supporters. To let that worldwide crew know what they mean to him he's offered up the tune 'INTL' as a free download. The heavyweight festival trap tune is tougher than the average artists biggest single, and it's yours. The only catch is now you're either a new fan of the one and only Kennedy Jones, or you're a much stronger supporter. The reggae influence creates a new feel that is rarely present in this style of music, but he pulls it off seemingly effortlessly.

Tuesday, April 24, 2007 – The Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association, along with five other groups, filed a lawsuit seeking an injunction of the Bush administration's cross-border program – set to kick off within days.
OOIDA, along with the Sierra Club; Public Citizen; the Environmental Law Foundation; the International Brotherhood of Teamsters; and the Brotherhood of Teamsters Auto and Truck Drivers Local 70, filed the suit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, San Francisco-Oakland Division, late Monday, April 23.
The lawsuit challenges the federal government's adoption and implementation of a pilot program authorizing up to 100 Mexican motor carriers – with an unlimited number of trucks – to perform long-haul operations within the U.S.
The plaintiffs claim in the lawsuit that the program is in violation of public notice and comment requirements federal law imposes on pilot programs.
"We have strongly opposed this program since first introduced, and in particular, the secretive nature in which it has been presented by the DOT," said OOIDA Executive Vice President Todd Spencer.
"The DOT has still not answered questions about verification of drivers' records, drug and alcohol testing, hours of service, cabotage, inspections and insurance. They make general statements about audits of Mexican motor carriers, but have shown nothing that should make the American public feel confident that they have fulfilled all the obligations necessary before moving forward."
The groups are asking the court for an injunction of the program until the Department of Transportation and the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration comply with the law by providing public notice of the pilot program and an opportunity for the public to comment. If the departments don't comply, the plaintiffs want the program to be set aside as unlawful.
The lawsuit runs down the events leading up to the opening of the border to 100 Mexican motor carriers.
Following a Feb. 23 announcement by Transportation Secretary Mary Peters of a "year-long pilot program" that would start in "about 60 days" details have been scarce, according to the lawsuit.
The lawsuit details statutory requirements federal agencies must follow before putting a pilot program into motion. One critical element is public notification and the opportunity to comment, according to the lawsuit.
The plaintiffs claim this has not happened with the impending cross-border program.
"The Secretary has not provided detailed information about the pilot program to the public," the lawsuit states. "Indeed, despite numerous requests by Congress and by environmental, public interest, labor and industry organizations to the Secretary and DOT for information about the pilot program, the details of the pilot program have been shrouded in secrecy."
The lawsuit claims the defendants – the DOT, FMCSA, Secretary Mary Peters and FMCSA Administrator John Hill – have not complied with the requirements governing pilot programs outlined in Title 49.
A hearing for the case had not been set as of Tuesday morning.
