Osprey Communications shortlisted for regional PR award
Published at 16:55, Thursday, 26 July 2012
A Cumbrian firm is celebrating after being shortlisted for a prestigious public relations award for the second year running.
Osprey Communications has been shortlisted for the Outstanding Small Consultancy at the Chartered Institute of Public Relations (CIPR) North West PRide Awards.
The firm has been recognised for its work with clients in a number of different sectors including tourism, health and forestry.
Osprey has also led the communications work for the West Cumbria Managing Radioactive Waste Safely Partnership which has carried out a major communications and engagement programme over the last three years. The Partnership has been shortlisted in three categories in the awards - the best Community Relations campaign, the best Integrated Communications campaign and the best External Publication.
Paul Gardner, the Managing Director of Osprey Communications, was previously a political journalist at the BBC in London and a special adviser to Kenneth Clarke at the Treasury. He says: "We are really pleased to have been shortlisted for the outstanding small PR agency in this year's PRide Awards. This is the fourth time that we have been shortlisted in this category in the last six years and we won in 2007.
"It is recognition of all the hard work that the team at Osprey has put in over the last few years.
"I think a key factor in being shortlisted again is the fact that for a small firm we do a very wide range of communications work. We have achieved extensive and varied coverage in the media for clients like Lakes Alive and the Forestry Commission.
"Our work for the West Cumbria Managing Radioactive Waste Safely Partnership has also included media relations, newsletters, video and social media, as well as organising exhibition stands, advertising and a live webcast."
The awards ceremony will take place on November 29 in Manchester.
CIPR CEO, Jane Wilson MCIPR, commented: "The CIPR PRide Awards celebrate the best PR and communications campaigns and teams from the profession across the UK. To be shortlisted for a CIPR PRide Award demonstrates exemplary achievement, impact and value – immediately putting your work in the spotlight."
The judging process for the PRide Awards is rigorous with a national panel of industry experts assessing the shortlisted entries and choosing the winners. The 2012 Chairs of Judges, Gill Dandy FCIPR, Senior Consultant at The Centre for Strategy and Communication, and Chris Genasi FCIPR, Senior Consultant at APCO Worldwide, assisted in ensuring a fair and consistent judging process.

As a form of closure for season 7, an updated driver medal table:
As a form of closure for season 7, an updated driver medal table:
I like to propose choosing a president on the basis of how he handles logic, not how cute and cuddly he is!
@Peter - I think some of the votes in the voting sheet (maybe ones selected but that have not changed colour?) are not recognized. Well I'm sure some are not recognized, I just don't know the logic behind. Have a look!
Just to say that, due to a very nice request to Simon made by Frost, a new subtopic was created on the NSGP Forum. All threads related with the online competition of this game were moved to there. NSGPOC1,2,3,4,5,6 + Stats/History.
As soon as this thread is finished it will also be moved as obvious, i just dont if we should move the new season starting 8. Maybe it would be more difficult to find by newcomers or?
Check previous posts, i stated that i wanted ideas to construct the voting sheet before voting began and as already stated i don't think it's fair that when people have started voting anything should change on the voting sheet.
I know what your saying but there are no budgets on this game - one of the good things about this game is that the fastest guy should win the championship, which isn't he case in F1 where you need both car and driver.
If say (excluding myself) the two fastest guys wanted to team up - in my opinion you and Afonso - i would have no problem with that at all, infact i would relish an opportunity to try and train up my teammate to the same level so we could give you a good battle
I'm sorry i'm taking that as a compliment
This is true! The votes are there though and the sheet will be fixed this evening hopefully - good spot!
Temporarily unregistered all votes, don't worry, your votes have been saved and will count when i fix the spreadsheet this evening, you can continue to vote as normal the only issue for now is that no points will be added to yes or no but your vote is registered
I have to say you have a point there, and i was almost convinced after reading it. But there are two things that bugger me.There is no problem with top drivers teaming up together? Except what will happen is this:
next season driver champion: Afonso
next season constructor champion: Afonso and any meh driver that shows up to most races (or Kos and Frost if Afonso has no team mate)
What we could have instead is this:
next season medals: Afonso, ???, ???
next season medals: Afonso, Kolowski, Othello
when would Othello EVER get a medal otherwise, or have a chance?
every single lower ranked driver would have a chance to fight for a medal this way.
Now a reply to the bold parts:
Yeah, you would rather dominate it Peter but that's exactly the point. We should give everyone a fighting chance because that makes the game fun for most, not just those who are superfast or team up with superfast.
As for best drivers pairing: that is not common at all. Teams have to go through great periods of success to be able and afford two of the best drivers Senna-Prost style. In fact, what we have in Formula 1 is this - teams are very different in terms of performance and funding and infrastructure etc etc but FIA keeps changing the rules madly trying to level the field and make it more exciting to watch.
The fun comes in two flavors: drivers championship and teams championship.
Drivers championship comes down to every driver having an approx. equal chance to show his skill - which we have!
Teams championship comes down to every team having an approx. equal chance to show their skill - which we don't have at all. And we should, all cars' pace is equal?
You Peter should be the first one to embrace ideas that would make the fight more interesting for the common folk. Because how is it fair for us to play together and for your team to seemingly have unlimited funds and mine barely can pay the pit crew?
1+10 is, in that regard, more realistic than any random thing we have now.
Afonso has won 320 pts, Ceraj has won 44.
We simply say: Afonso salary is 320.000 and Ceraj salary is 44.000. Every team that competes has the same budget of 364.000 and can sign up any drivers they see fit and that they can afford. Same budget = equal chance for all teams = no forcing drivers together.
It might be just me but "equal chance for all teams" does not really sound all that bad for an online game.
One is that the main reason so we participate in the online championship is to compete against other human players, with the purpose of trying to beat the others. Adding an extra layer of competion is a good thing, but on the basis of choosing teams it seems to me that almost everyone will try to choose a team that as some affection with (if i could choose, i prefer to race in a red Ferrari car, then to run in a grey Mclaren, despite running for Mclaren would give me better chances to win the constructors championship). And besides that, i think (and this is just a thought, probably i can change my opinion during next season) i would prefer to finnish 3rd or 4th pairing with another newcomer like Gatewood, then to win the constructors championship if pairing with you or Afonso.
The other reason is that there is no statistics for the racers who won medals in the constructors championship. If you consult the tables and statistics, you would find the name of the players who won gold, silver and bronze medals, but you don't know who won any of the constructors championship , unless you search in two different tables, one time for each season. Nobody seems to miss that aspect (maybe i'm wrong).
But i do agree with the following: when choosing teams for next season there should be some rules. First if anyone wants to keep their seat, then he should have it. But if there is one or more players that want to change to the same team, they should pair like you said.
Yeah, there is no table that counts constructor medals earned by a particular player. Partially because it's hard to say who deserves to get the medal. For example, should Dan Pankowiak get silver medal for Lotus finishing 2nd? He only raced 1 race for Lotus. It's a hard question. I must admit, that along with championship chances, it's important to me that I race for McLaren not HRT and that my teammate is not a douchebag .
That would be a good point if you currently had the option of chosing teams However, since teams can (and usually are) reserved before the season begins I feel the only fair way to settle that debate would be: top drivers choose teams first. Champion choses, then the runner up, etc.
Well the 1+10 rule is more of a "high limit", on the "low" side you could as well pair with another newcomer and have no issuesAnd besides that, i think (and this is just a thought, probably i can change my opinion during next season) i would prefer to finnish 3rd or 4th pairing with another newcomer like Gatewood, then to win the constructors championship if pairing with you or Afonso.
I do miss it! I've suggested it before already but the tables and such depend only on the good will of those who make itThe other reason is that there is no statistics for the racers who won medals in the constructors championship. If you consult the tables and statistics, you would find the name of the players who won gold, silver and bronze medals, but you don't know who won any of the constructors championship , unless you search in two different tables, one time for each season. Nobody seems to miss that aspect (maybe i'm wrong).
So to answer to Przemator on constructor medals:
- if a a driver has driven more than 50% races for the constructor winning team, he gets a con medal!
- if a driver (or more drivers) have driven less than 50% races for a constructor winning team then it is as follows:
lead driver points enough to take constructors - only lead driver gets medal
lead driver + driver with 2nd largest number of appearances enough to take constructors - those two take medals
lead driver + 2nd +3rd... etc - 3 take medals, etc

So I need to update my credit card, but Mattel's answer to that guy's question was pretty much left ambiguous. If I change it now, do I risk not getting the rest of my May figures?
Oh, and this seems to be a big cop out answer:
Q: Will Club Lion continue in 2013?
A: It is too early for us to comment on 2013 at this point for any brand.
So they keep talking about a 2013 DC sub possibility, but when it comes to Voltron, they pretty much just avoid the question.
What was Mattel's purpose in licensing Voltron when they aren't even going to utilize the license? They should have let someone who cared get the license.
My Toy Website
Elkkthunder's Toy Room
Considering the fact that the resellers are jumping on Voltron and the price they are now going for I think Mattel have another winner in the Voltron license and they are probably trying to work out now how they can capitalise on that.
I like that they got the Filmation rights because it is needed for MOTUC but I would have loved if they got Thundercats
Right now, I'm not sure, but someone who would release villians and the vehicle series stuff.
Don't get me wrong, I absolutely Mattel for releasing the Blazing Sword Voltron and the pilots, but SDCC would have been the perfect time to do a Blazing Sword VV figure, or a villian three pack of Lotor, Hagar, Zarkon. However, I think my biggest gripe is that every time I asked about Voltron on their facebook page, my post was deleted and then I now cannot even post comments on it. I was banned from their forums for asking Voltron questions. Everything I have asked lor seen asked gets ignored. It seems like everything related to Voltron is top secret information and you get ousted for asking about it.
Take part in Illumina Day! Let people know who she is and help get her in MOTUC.
You can join the Illumina Facebook page here!
See, now answers like these really confuse me.
It is a line that depends solely on word of mouth, social media and collecting forums to get info out and promote the line. The idea behind these questions is to get the customer (who they want to sign up for $550.00 a year) juiced up and wanting to get their hands on future stuff. These answers are garbage. They say they have the line planned out for another 4 or 5 years, so what is the harm in letting us know 5 or 6 months in advance what product is coming out. Why all the secrecy?
Because things change so much so often that we hate having to give out update after update. We want to make sure something is happening for sure before it is announced (and look at how much still changes!). Look at how most fans see Draego Man's shield or Horde Prime's stick in the mud. Once we show something, fans/customers expect it. We know this. This is why we hold information back until we are sure it is going to happen. Things change so much that we want to show what you are getting, not early prototypes or concepts that won't make it.
And of course their are legal, PR and licensor issues too, but you get the point.
But all you have to do is put that little legal jumbo gumbo that something is subject to change.
However, my biggest gripe right now is why aren't my subs being combined? Or is Spector going to ship with Flash since they were both delayed? And you can't say I am using a different shipping method because all are from UPS Ground, on the same credit card, etc. Plus, if that were the case, Draego-Man would not have shipped with Yellow Lion and He-Man.
argh - i hate the 'stay tuned' comment. they said that in 2010 about the meteorbs and i can only stay tuned-in for so long before it gets a bit annoying.

Wine Country Inn is a bed and breakfast located in Saint Helena, California. This Diamond Collection inn overlooks vineyards and hills in California's Napa wine country. There are 24 rooms and five guest cottages; some of these have private patios or balconies and fireplaces. The inn also has a heated swimming pool and whirlpool. To enhance further relaxation, the guest rooms do not have televisions.
This wonderful review was left for a stay at Wine Country Inn in July 2011.
"It's THE must-stay place in Napa!!!"What a find!!! Not only are the gardens and surrounding vineyards GORGEOUS, but the room (cottage, actually) was BEYOND my expectation. And the service--the staff--is wonderful. Everyone is not nice because they have to be--they are genuinely good, nice, fun people! Don't miss the 4:30 p.m. wine tasting and appetizers in the "common room." The pool and jacuzzi are a dream, too. Make sure to wander around the gardens.

Friendship Bread
Bookpage Interviews and Reviews
Behind the Book: A recipe gives rise to a novel
In 2009, my then-eight-year-old daughter brought home a few slices of Amish Friendship Bread on a paper plate. "It's so good," she insisted.
Reader Reviews
Something for EveryoneOnce you start this delicious novel, you won't be able to put it down. The inter-woven stories of six women in this small, Illinois town are enough to capture any reader. Each of these interesting women has a story to tell; a story of pain or loss. Through the events of this novel, as the Friendship starter is passed throughout the town, each woman slowly learns to trust another with her heart as she looks to heal and move forward. The emotions are real and there isn't a situation here that every reader can't easily identify with.
Each character walks a different walk, comes from a different place; cross-generational women, reaching out to help one another. It's a story of sisters, moms, friends, bakers, artists…no one is left out here. This brilliant author has found a way into the reader's heart through these great characters.
Darien Gee gives the details and thought that make a book great. A book that will stay with you long after you finish the Epilogue; it will stay in your thoughts and call you back to read it again. In addition, this book is a slam-dunk for anyone that loves food or loves to bake. I was dying to get a nibble of all the great foods mentioned in this book! Don't miss the recipes included in the back of the either. I'm seriously considering whipping up my own "starter" and passing this around my small town!
A book to love, a book to give, and a book to remember…don't miss this one!

Your website is awful. Pages take an unusually long time to load, even with my fast connection. Any potential customer with a slower connection would certainly give up before finding even a single item to add to his or her shopping cart. I'm sure you've lost customers over this issue alone. In case you aren't aware, a customer well-versed in online shopping develops a system for finding the items he's interested in. Slow page loading makes this seem like a pointless endeavor, especially when the browsing shopper clicks on one spot on the screen before the page has finished its endless loading only to have the click end up on a completely different and often unrelated item or category instead. Poorly designed and/or hosted websites send customers to your competitors. An additional example of your website's lousy design is that so many of the links are bad. It's frustrating to click on a link for luggage and end up somewhere else entirely. When one clicks on a link for slacks in plus sizes and instead is given seach results for black slacks in all sizes, one is inclined to run for the hills. (Metaphorical, possibly Sears.) Please consider having your website redesigned. It would be well worth the investment.
has anyone here actually personally designed a message board, orsales-style website? I'm talking about websites beyond your simple HTML "me" page, or amyspace profile. Something like PFB. Or ebay, or a message boardwhere you have to have login data? We had to do them in my advanced web design class. Believe me it isNOT as easy as it looks. And you do it all yourself, no teams of coders just one person. There's a lot of work involved. It's not just barfing some code on apage and calling it a website. It took a lot of effort just to make asimple message board where users could log in, edit their posts,search for posts, look for posts under topics etc, and log out. Plus we had to include at least two complex codes - mine includedfiguring out how to jerry rig my page to have avatars show up. Iended up designing code that stripped the avatar file of allinformation and changing the file name to the name of the user only(no extension). weird but hey it worked. now imagine that on a big scale... say, writing code for an entirestore where you have to tie in inventory data, credit card security,etc. sure it's easy to just say "they're dumbos cos this didn't work wellfor me" but that's a bit of an overreaction.
I agree with the letter writer 100%. This is an ENORMOUS problem onthe Web and the IT community needs to take responsibility for it andclean it up ASAP. Web Masters are easily the most useless, brainless idiots currentlyalive on our planet. I have the same issue with idiotic Yahoo email. I am quicker than mycomputer...and the servers that underlie my web connection. As aresult, I am punished each and every day I log online as the idiot ITsystem requires that the entire page load up (ads and all) before Ican do anything. So, each email delays me by about 30 seconds while itpaints up. Considering I get about 120 emails a day, I lose about ANHOUR of free time each and every day due to this IT slow-movingidiocy. This shows IGNORANCE and a LACK OF CONCERN by IT people towards thefree time of their users/customers and a lack of concern twoards thelevel of happiness with their work output that their users have. It'd be nice if the federal govt. would pass a bill requiring thatthese irritations be minimized. Each penalty could involve anassessment against the offending IT company for $1 K per violation. Ibet THAT'D get the crap to stop immediately! After all, the unlimitedgreed of most businesses would ensure they'd clean up their slowgarbage issues just to avoid having to go bankrupt from fees for slowservice. I bet advertisers forced this change...because fast folks like myselfwere churning through their email quickly, efficiently and withouteven glancing at their dumb ads. Why do these advertising dopes thinkthat by forcing us to slow down...that we're actually going to have apositive view of their firm or even buy something through the ad? Yeah, RIGHT. What I'VE done (and I bet the letter writer and mostothers irked by this problem are also doing) is mentally catalog whoadvertises in Yahoo email so I can boycott them and never buy anythingfrom them ever again....as well as bad-mouth them to whoever willlisten!
It doesn't seem like it could be my connection, since I had the sameslow, glitchy behavior at a friend's house, and the other websites Iuse all load quickly. Could it be my browser? (Firefox, fwiw. Like,some kind of incompatibility between Firefox and the website?)
Just jumped over to firefox and the Macy's site loaded faster thanwith Windows. I have both loaded, because sometimes it is better touse Firefox. As for the other, maybe.... well I just don't know, notthat computer savvy.
glitches out with certain websites as most are designed to becompatible with Internet Explorer. I know I use Firefox at home andMIE at work and frequently have JAVA issues on my home machine. Thatcould be another issue. Luckily there are several options right now (as others have pointedout) that may work even better, so you might want to check that outbefore you claim their site is faulty.

Partner Profile Cascades Tissue Group (Away-from-Home Division) is a leading producer of 100 percent recycled sustainably-manufactured towel and tissue products for the away-from-home market. Cascades' commitment to minimize environmental impacts drove it to become the first tissue manufacturer in North America to use third-party certified wind energy for product manufacturing. This is noteworthy since the EPA lists the paper industry as the 4th most energy-intensive industry in the US. As such, the carbon impacts associated with paper manufacturing are very significant. The company's commitment to use renewable energy for its North River® and Cascades® brands allows it to avoid over 39 million lbs of CO2 emissions per year. By using the environmental calculator at www.sustain.cascades.com/calculator.php, the company's end use customers can quantify carbon and other environmental savings for North River and Cascades branded products. These customers are "increasingly in need of sustainable towel and tissue solutions which we can provide," says the company. |

Offshore Wind Technology
The Wind Program funds research nationwide to develop and deploy offshore wind technologies that can capture wind resources off the coasts of the United States and convert the wind out at sea into electricity. Offshore wind resources are abundant, stronger, and blow more consistently than land-based wind resources. Data on the resource potential suggest more than 4,000,000 megawatts (MW) could be accessed in state and federal waters along the coasts of the United States and the Great Lakes, approximately four times the combined generating capacity of all U.S. electric power plants.
The DOE Wind Program is working with the Department of the Interior's Bureau of Ocean Energy Management to advance a national strategy for offshore wind research and development. The DOE Wind Program is leading market analysis, technology development, and deployment projects that will overcome key barriers including the relatively high cost of energy, the mitigation of environmental impacts, the technical challenges of project installation, and grid interconnection.
Read a National Offshore Wind Strategy: Creating an Offshore Wind Industry in the United States.
Research Project Highlights
In 2012, the Department announced funding to seven Advanced Technology Demonstration projects totaling $168 million over six years. In 2011, the Department of Energy allocated $42 million dollars to 42 research and development projects in the Great Lakes, along the Atlantic Coast, and the Gulf of Mexico. These projects are defined under two categories: Technology Development and Market Barrier Removal.
DOE Awards Over $200 Million Dollars in Offshore Wind Research, Development, and Demonstration Grants
Advanced Technology Demonstration
The program recently announced seven technology demonstration partnerships with broad consortia that are developing breakthrough offshore wind energy generation projects. The primary goals of these projects are to achieve large cost reductions over existing offshore wind technologies and develop viable and reliable options for the United States. The demonstrations will help address key challenges associated with installing utility-scale offshore wind turbines, connecting offshore turbines to the power grid, and navigating new permitting and approval processes.
Each project will receive up to $4 million to complete the engineering, site evaluation, and planning phase of their project. Upon completion of this phase, the DOE Wind Program will select up to three of these projects to advance the follow-on design, fabrication, and deployment phases to achieve commercial operation by 2017. These projects will be eligible for up to $47 million over four years, subject to congressional appropriations.
The seven projects selected for the first phase of this six-year initiative are:
Baryonyx Corporation, based in Austin, Texas, plans to install three 6-megawatt direct-drive wind turbines in state waters near Port Isabel, Texas. The project will demonstrate an advanced jacket foundation design and integrate lessons learned from the oil and gas sector on hurricane-resistant facility design, installation procedures, and personnel safety.
Fishermen's Atlantic City Windfarm plans to install up to six direct-drive turbines in state waters three miles off the coast of Atlantic City, New Jersey. The project will result in an advanced bottom-mounted foundation design and innovative installation procedures to mitigate potential environmental impacts. The company expects this project to achieve commercial operation by the end of 2014.
Lake Erie Development Corporation, a regional public-private partnership based in Cleveland, Ohio, plans to install nine 3-megawatt direct-drive wind turbines on "ice breaker" monopile foundations designed to reduce ice loading. The project will be installed on Lake Erie, seven miles off the coast of Cleveland.
Seattle, Washington-based Principle Power plans to install five semi-submersible floating foundations outfitted with 6-megawatt direct-drive offshore wind turbines. The project will be sited in deep water 10 to 15 miles from Coos Bay, Oregon. Principle Power's semi-submersible foundations will be assembled near the project site in Oregon, helping to reduce installation costs.
Statoil North America of Stamford, Connecticut plans to deploy four 3-megawatt wind turbines on floating spar buoy structures in the Gulf of Maine off Boothbay Harbor at a water depth of approximately 460 feet. These spar buoys will be assembled in harbor to reduce installation costs and then towed to the installation site to access the Gulf of Maine's extensive deep water offshore wind resources.
The University of Maine plans to install a pilot floating offshore wind farm with two 6-megawatt direct-drive turbines on concrete semi-submersible foundations near Monhegan Island. These concrete foundations could result in improvements in commercial-scale production and provide offshore wind projects with a cost-effective alternative to traditional steel foundations.
Dominion Virginia Power of Richmond plans to design, develop, and install two 6-megawatt direct-drive turbines off the coast of Virginia Beach on innovative "twisted jacket" foundations that offer the strength of traditional jacket or space-frame structures but use substantially less steel.
Technology Development
The program invests in projects to develop the engineering modeling and analysis tools required to lower overall offshore facility costs and to design the next generation of innovative large-scale turbines optimized for installation and operation in the marine environment.
Offshore wind turbines are frequently located far from shore, face greater potential for corrosion from exposure to seawater, are only accessible by helicopter or boat, and therefore must be designed more robustly (i.e., requiring less maintenance) than land-based turbines due to the high costs of transporting maintenance crews to and from shore.
Projects awarded funding in 2011:
Eight projects received $6.7 million to advance the current state-of-the-art modeling and analysis tools for the design, performance assessment, system modeling, and cost assessment of offshore wind systems.
Seven projects received $3.4 million to develop conceptual designs and assessments of offshore wind plant systems that enhance energy capture, improve performance and reliability, and reduce the cost of energy from integrated wind plant systems.
Four projects received $15.3 million to research and develop innovative rotor and control systems designs for advanced components and integrated systems to reduce capital costs of these systems by up to 50%.
Market Barrier Removal
The program invests in projects to remove market barriers that limit the deployment of offshore wind in the nation's coastal and Great Lakes regions.
Projects awarded funding in 2011:
One project received $510,000 to reduce financing costs and increase investor confidence by supporting an offshore wind market analysis to inform stakeholder decision making regarding individual projects, industry issues, and energy policy. Read the report resulting from this grant.
Three projects received $5.7 million to expedite the permitting process by performing ecological studies and predictive modeling and validating innovative technologies for avian and bat studies. Read the report resulting from this grant.
Two projects received $650,000 to assess the current domestic supply chain infrastructure and recommend strategies for national manufacturing infrastructure development to support offshore wind deployment.
Four projects received $2.5 million to study and plan for the integration of offshore wind energy into the electrical transmission and grid interconnection, thereby increasing technical viability of commercial-scale offshore wind integration.
Four projects received $1.2 million to support the assessment of ports, vessels, and operations that will be involved with offshore wind energy efforts.
Eight projects received $5.8 million to develop an accessible network of information on subjects including U.S. offshore wind resources, design requirements for offshore wind turbines, and environmental conditions affecting offshore wind energy systems.
One project received $500,000 to evaluate the potential effects of offshore wind energy facilities on electronic navigation, detection, or communication equipment such as airborne radar, Global Positioning Systems (GPS), shipboard radios, and SONAR (Sound Navigation and Ranging).
Building on advancements that have brought tens of thousands of jobs to the nation's land-based wind industry, as well as the technological and market advancements being made by the DOE Wind Program and its partners under the National Offshore Wind Strategy, these offshore wind research, development, and demonstration projects will catalyze the development of a new offshore wind industry in the United States while increasing our domestically-sourced power supply.

Former ACU Letterman Killed In Plane Crash
By: Lance Fleming, ACU Assistant Director of Athletics for Media Relations
Updated: February 21, 2012
Phillips, 47, and his passenger, Amy Clay, were both killed in the plane crash. According to the Abilene Reporter-News, the the Shackelford County Sheriff's Department received communication from the Federal Aviation Administration-Abilene Tower that the plane had gone off radar about five miles northeast of Albany.
The sheriff's department, Civil Air Patrol, Department of Public Safety and others worked together to try to find the aircraft Monday night. Officials searched until 4 a.m., then resumed the search around 7 a.m. Tuesday.
Officials discovered part of the plane's wing after 9 a.m. They then located the fuselage, and the remains of the pilot and passenger.
Phillips and Clay were traveling from Abilene Regional Airport to a location in Oklahoma, said Shackelford County Sheriff Edward Miller.
Phillips played two seasons at ACU (1984, 1985), setting the ACU single-game record for touchdown receptions with four in a 1985 game against Northern Colorado. He was an honorable mention all-Lone Star Conference selection in 1985.

"Don't Taze Me, Bro!"
Hello boys and girls. I acquired a W3650, and when coupled with a Chimei CMV 221D monitor, I cannot get the setup to the native motor resolution using XP. It ran fine using Ubuntu, but I need window$ at work. I have the latest and greatest intel driver for the onboard video, but it appears to not support this particular monitor. It is my understanding that this monitor is understood to be plug n' play for Vi$ta, but for the crap I can't get this machine to run this monitor at 1680 x 1050. Any advice will be appreciated. And I mean that. |

Maybe windows didn't detect your monitor. I would mess around and try to get windows to recognize that monitor. Try re plugging it in or try to find a driver for it. Then re install the intel gma950 driver. I think it has to do with the generic monitor driver windows is using,is not showing that monitor as 1680+1050. Does it skip that resolution or just not go that high? |

"Don't Taze Me, Bro!"
Thanks for the advice, 455olds. I found the answer... I was trying to upgrade/install the driver for the graphics (Intel Graphics Media Accellerator 950), but what was actually required was a driver upgrade for the mainboard (Intel 945GC Express) available at the Intel site. Windows wasn't reading the graphics adapter, and the driver was listed as generic. Now we're up and humming. Thanks! |

It is often quite useful on page reload or when coming back to a previously visited page, to open up that page with the last tab that was being viewed still activated. In the past jQuery UI tabs made this fairly easy through browser cookies being baked into the tabs initialization call. Unfortunately, with the release of jQuery UI 1.10, the cookie option for tabs has been deprecated, rendering all your previous statements that looked like this, pretty much useless: From the official upgrade path notes: Support for cookies is not part of the core functionality for tabs and there are many ways to manage state across page loads. Therefore, the cookie option has been deprecated in favor of setting the active option appropriately during initialization. Luckily for us though, just because native tab support for cookies is gone doesn't mean that we can't still remember which tab was open using cookies – we just need to alter our approach first! The idea is simple enough. As before, use a cookie to store the currently activated tab index. On load, if the cookie exists, activate the associated tab index. If it doesn't exist, load the first one. Finally, on tab activate, update the cookie with the new index value. In practice: Simple, but works like a charm!
Here is a quick and easy keyboard shortcut to duplicate or clone the current open tab in Firefox 4.
The jQuery UI library is a brilliant collection of official jQuery UI widgets and effects, one of them being the extremely useful Tabs widget.
Tabs allows you to shorten a page by placing bits of a page's content into their own little "tabs", which can be access by clicking on the tab header. A brilliant space saving mechanism and one that has become quite commonplace in applications these days.
Sometimes it is nice to remember what tab you currently have open so that when you travel to some other part of a site and then return to your original page, you want it to remember which tab you had currently selected.
Craig Lotter is an established web developer and application programmer, with strong creative urges (which keep bursting out at the most inopportune moments) and a seemingly insatiable need to love all things animated. Living in the beautiful coastal town of Gordon's Bay in South Africa, he games, develops, takes in animated fare, trains under whichever martial arts dojo is closest at the time, and for the most part, simply enjoys life with his amazing wife and daughter.
Oh, and he draws ever now and then too.
This is a collection of things that he has managed to find the time to scribble down since 2007.

Wedgwood - Station 40 About the Station Station 40 houses one engine company (E40) and one reserve engine. As one of the newer stations in the system, Station 40 is in generally fair condition, but requires some minor seismic retrofits to meet current earthquake safety standards. About the Project As a seismic and safety upgrade station, Station 40 requires additional seismic bracing to meet current earthquake safety codes. No additional floor space is planned for this station, but interior remodeling will convert the existing multipurpose room into an apparatus bay support area, providing decontamination equipment and crew preparation and vehicle maintenance functions. In addition, the physical training room in the station's basement will be remodeled and the existing watch office will be converted into a station office and lobby that will offer improved operations and security. These actions will displace some crew areas, so the remodel will include a reconfiguration of bunk and living space. Station 40 will continue to house two apparatus. Emergency services are expected to remain on site while the station is being upgraded. Planned Station Features Technical Capacities

It has been 20 years since Donegal last claimed the Sam Maguire and now Mayo - who were surprise winners over Dublin in the semi-finals - stand in their way.
Jim McGuinness has named an unchanged side for the showpiece clash at Croke Park, and he has told UTV he believes his team have what it takes to get over the line on Sunday.
He said: "Obviously the 1992 team achieved something that no-one else has done, and nobody can ever take it away from them, and anybody who wins an All Ireland is the same.
"That is pretty much what I wish for this group of players.
"If they can get over the line on All Ireland final day that is a big milestone in their life as a footballer and as a person as well.
"They have worked very hard for this opportunity, particularly in the last couple of years they have really put their head down and the game really presents itself now for them and my hope now is that they can take that opportunity."
Meanwhile team captain Michael Murphy believes the Ulster Championship winning side have proved their credentials this season and can go all the way.
"It's been a hell of a journey this year coming through Ulster, which is always a minefield," he said.
"Any team that wins an Ulster Championship you would say is deserving because any of nine counties can go out and win it and we are delighted to retain it this year.
"Going in facing Kerry, which people look at as one of the best sides in the country over the last number of years, and the last outing against Cork, we are grateful to manage to get into a final.
"When the final whistle was blown, a sense of relief starts away when the final whistle was blown, that turned to joy."
Donegal's assistant manager Rory Kavanagh is a Fermanagh man, but he knows how much it means to the players to be in the final after the disappointment of last year.
He said: "You can understand the nerves but it is something that has to be enjoyed.
"It is a huge occasion for them it doesn't change anything, it's another game of football that has to be won and at this stage it's all about winning.
"That's the proposition that lies ahead of us now, the Mayo side will be full of confidence and they will be going all guns blazing. They have a very strong defence and massive men around midfield and the sharp shooters up front that can really punish you so we are going to need to improve all aspects of our game to compete with them."
The game kicks off at 3.30pm on Sunday.
It will be shown on the big screen in the grounds of City Hall in Belfast, with free admission on a first come first served basis.
The council said: "Respective team jerseys and flags will be allowed, although flag poles will not. Picnics are welcome, but no alcohol will be allowed on site."

Melbourne ISTSDay Report
MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA - Slowly but surely the photos from International Stop the Tar Sands Day 2012 are creeping in. Since I had about a 10 hour head start on most ISTSDay events I had time to write this article about ISTSDay in Melbourne. The article has been published on line in DEMOTIX:
The full text of the article is below. More photos of us and our 2 meter tall climate dot are in the DEMOTIX article or on facebook. I will have more May 5th tales for you in the coming days.
Concerned citizens of Melbourne took to the streets today despite rainy conditions to participate in one of the largest international days of action for the planet in human history. Hundreds of events involving thousands of people will take place around the world today for Climate Impacts Day and International Stop the Tar Sands Day.
"The tar sands are the pin-up for unconventional fossil fuels," says Melbourne co-organizer Cheree Mack. "If we can stop the tar sands in Canada maybe it will have a ripple effect on other places around the world that are using similar destructive technologies. In Australia, coal seam gas (unconventional gas) has become a major issue and we also have undeveloped oil shale deposits here."
The three unconventional fossils fuels under development globally at the moment - tar sands, oil shale and shale gas/coal seam gas – require more energy to develop, have more negative environmental impacts and produce less energy than their conventional predecessors. Tar sands are a mixture of clay, sand, heavy metals and a tar like form of petroleum called bitumen. The largest and most developed tar sands deposits in the world are located underneath the beautiful boreal forests of Alberta, Canada. The Albertan tar sands are the third largest oil reserve in the world.
"I wasn't expecting to change the minds of thousands of Melbournians today," explains Bronwyn Wauchope, Melbourne co-organizer. "It was about capturing people's attention through creative means to raise awareness about the climate crisis."
Organizers and participants of the Melbourne event pushed a two meter tall handmade "climate dot" through the busy streets of Melbourne's central business district. People were nearly mesmerized as the handmade cardboard dot rolled past famous city landmarks like Flinders Street train station and the State Library.
"Connecting the dots" between recent extreme weather events and climate change caused by humanity's burning of fossil fuels was the main of theme of Climate Impacts Day. This is the fourth international day of action organized by 350.org, an environmental organization that is present in every country in the world except North Korea.
Prior to the event, Melbourne organizers had painted the earth on one side of the dot and a spiral on the other. Melbourne co-organizer Joel Gresham explains the symbolism:
"The spiral represents how our energy needs are spiralling out of control and pushing us towards more extreme forms of energy like tar sands and coal seam gas. The earth represents the need for us to reconnect with our planet in order to live more sustainably."
Neither a group nor an organization, International Stop the Tar Sands Day was created in 2010 with the goal of raising international awareness about the Canadian tar sands industry. Organizers and participants of International Stop the Tar Sands Day are encouraged to be creative, stay positive, and have fun with their events in order to make the notion of stopping the tar sands accessible to people from all different walks of life.
At noon, participants met with Melbourne's "Quit Coal" group for a rally in front of the office of the Australian mining company Rio Tinto. People are calling for a moratorium on new coal mines and coal seam gas operations in the state of Victoria. Coal seam gas projects in Victoria are only in their exploratory phase, despite having support of the state government to move on to full operations.
To show support for Canadian indigenous peoples, solidarity photos were taken on the banks of the Yarra River. Indigenous peoples of western Canada are currently in a legal battle with the Canadian government over the construction of the Northern Gateway pipeline, which would be built on their lands. Northern Gateway would be a major step towards shipping tar sands oil to emerging markets in Asia. According to eminent scientist James Hansen, Director of NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies, it would be "game over" for the climate if the Canadian tar sands were developed completely.
In spirit of addressing these issues, Cheree Mack quoted from the Users Guide to Demanding the Impossible - "It's easy to feel paralysed by the complexities of the world, to feel like nothing you do will ever make a difference...But when we look back at history we see that every movement, every single shift in society began with a small group of friends having an idea that seemed impossible at the time."

U.S. election: Your global views |
Statelessness vs. State
The human rights of stateless persons should and must be protected not only on international but on domestic level as well. Failure to protect human rights of stateless persons raises from unwillingness from the government to do so, think it expedient to ignore the human rights of "invisible" stateless residents in its territory. This must be changed. We should not only be concern globally about the human rights violation of stateless persons but try to take all necessary steps to eliminate statelessness within our own territory, here, in the United States.
As I have mentioned before the law must be balanced. Even though we do not have any remedies or laws protecting stateless persons in the United States, there are several international declarations and conventions in regards to human rights protection, those laws are binding in our country, and does not discriminate on citizenship status or limbo status in case of statelessness. Even though, the United States is not a party of the UN 1954 Convention Relating to the Status of Stateless Persons and the UN 1961 Convention Related to the Reduction of Statelessness, we did sign the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and as democratic society should follow the principles of that Declaration when we take statelessness into account. Besides UDHR, we have Inter-American System. That system is primarily based around two treaties-the American Declaration on the Rights and Duties of Man and the American Convention on Human Rights which is administered by the Organization of American States. Any violation in regards to human rights treatment, e.g. forceable exile, confinement in one place without the possibility to excersice the freedom of movement and travel can be petitioned to the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights, and the Inter-American Court of Human Rights. The American Convention on Human Rights is a binding legal document which was adopted in 1969 and went into force in 1978. That Convention particularly outlines the human rights of all individuals and does not discriminate based on sex, religion, political opinion, citizenship status or statelessness limbo. It specifically states the freedom from exile (my exile in US territory still ongoing), the right to asylum (my asylum was denied in 1996 due to unfair trial), and the prohibition of the collective expulsion of aliens. In this case it means that estimated 4,000 stateless persons living in the United States without being recognized and in limbo status cannot be deported to nowhere as there are no nation in the world that recognizes them, and the host nation does not provide any remedies or legal status to those people. But by living in the United States we should be protected as any other citizens as we follow the same regulations like anyone else, work, pay taxes. Stateless persons cannot be forced deported or self-deported without the diplomatic assurances from other "safe" nation who is willing to provide them protection and legal assistance.
I understand that if I found myself in Germany or Switzerland it would be hard to convince the US Government to take back stateless person with 16 years residency in the US back. But I am not in Germany or Switzerland, I am on US soil, the US territory in South Pacific, American Samoa where President of the United States is the head of state. For the past 10 month I am fighting for my human rights and the possibility to return back home to the mainland of the United States. The US DHS keep saying that I am outside of the US immigration system which in my opinion is not true at all. As US territory, American Samoa is under the jurisidiction of the United States, and federal immigration law does apply to this territory in cases like asylum, refugee, etc., and also included in USCIS paragraph 215.1 in regards to control of aliens departing the United States. And again, American Samoa is the US territory. If I am having difficulties to get back to the mainland of the US from the US territory, imagine if I was in Austria or Italy. What could happen in this case? Well, first of all, as a stateless person who lived in the US for 16 years without status it would be difficult and almost impossible to convince EU nations to grant you asylum or refugee status coming from the "safe" country like USA. On what ground does EU grant asylum to stateless person coming from the United States? Religious discrimination or discrimonation based on my sexual orientation, my nationality, the race? Or maybe because the US violates the right of stateless persons? We can go on and on but for EU it won't count. What will happen in this case? If you get a little bit chance to be approved and legalized in EU as a stateless, bingo, you are protected according to the UN 1954 Convention, and again, if you get lucky. But in most cases EU will have no choice but deport you back to the country of your last habitual residence, the country you came from, which is the US. So, basically you will be living in the sky, traveling between Europe and the US, and neither US will allow your entry nor Europe, and your permanent residency becomes Boeing-757, let's say, you cannot get in and you cannot get out unless some international organizations would get involved and condemn the countries for violating human rights of stateless person. But who will be held accountable in this case, EU or US? Of course, the US, as it was the only country where stateless person spent most of his life living and working as any other citizen, where he has established his life, connections, friends, carrier and everything he carved for over a decade. He has ties in the US, something that he does not have in EU.
Back to the Inter-American Convention. This Convention adopted a protocol in the area of Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (the so called protocol of San Salvador adopted in 1988 and went into force in 1999). This protocol includes the right to a healthy environment. The environment I found myself in, here in tropical island, is not healthy at all for my own health. The humidity, hot and tropical climate is unbearable for me, and I am a temperature-sensitive person. I am not an island person at all. Taking this into account it does constitute the violation of 1988 Protocol by the US as I am in the US territory and is a long-term resident of the United States. Forced exile, forced confinement, with all rights taken away, and the mental and physical torture I am going through here is also in violation of Inter-American Convention to Prevent and Punish Torture that was adopted in 1985.
How many stateless persons in the United States found themselves in the same situation like myself, the same madness and nightmarish limbo? Am I the only one? Are there others who did not speak yet? From estimated 4,000 stateless persons living isolated in the United States, I can speak on behalf of all of them, because we are the group of stateless persons whose rights are violated, we are not recognized as legal residents or citizens of this country, we cannot move freely, we have to report to immigration authorities indefinetly that can last forever, and we cannot look for a job as we wish because we must have special permission from ICE agents to allow us to apply for work permit, and if you don't have work permit, your social security number is useless, and you will never be able to obtain neither Government issued ID's or Driver Licenses. You are the hostage of the broken immigration system.
I was talking about my rights as a stateless person, but as I mentioned before we have estimated 4,000 stateless persons in the US, and more hiding in shadows. So, basically it is human rights versus collective rights, meaning the human rights of one stateless person versus human rights of all stateless people. Statelessness as collective rights, but also stateless persons have the same human rights as a human being. Taking statelessness as collective human rights is to determine who is to exercise the rights? Is it state? The issue here of who holds the duty to respect, protect, and fulfill the human rights of stateless people is equally difficult. For example, if the right-holder is the stateless people, than the duty-holder might be the State and if State violates human rights of stateless people the claim against the State should be brought to Inter-American Court on Human Rights. If the State itself is the right-holder, or if the State is empowered to exercise the right on behalf of stateless people, on whom does the corresponding duty fall? UNHCR? International Court of Justice? or Inter-American Court on Human Rights?
If I, as a stateless person living in the US wish to exercise my right to freedom of movement according to Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the State is required to refrain from interfering with my choice. But in order to respect my individual right to freedom of movement, the State is also required to refrain from active violation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the principles of Inter-American Commission of Human Rights or placing discriminatory restrictions on stateless persons, and must either adjust domestic immigration policy, or join UN 1954 and UN 1961 Conventions - in other words, to protect stateless people, which is crucial for liberal democracy to function properly.
