Notice: This Knowledge Base article pertains specifically to the DeploymentPro for UserActivation product, and not to the DeploymentPro product that is part of MSPComplete.
What do I put in my DeploymentPro for UserActivation user list for Source and Destination addresses?
In DeploymentPro for UserActivation, you will be asked to enter the following information when setting up your user list:
Source email address
Destination email address
Use the following as guidelines to determine what you should enter in your user list:
Source Email Address
- If you are installing DeploymentPro for UserActivation through end user email, the Source email address is the email address where we will send the installation email.
- If you are installing DeploymentPro for UserActivation through a Group Policy script, we will perform an LDAP lookup for the primary SMTP address in Active Directory when the user logs on, and try to match the SMTP address to whatever is provided in the DeploymentPro for UserActivation user list. When you run DeploymentPro in GPO mode, we first try to locate the user's primary SMTP address. The goal is to match whatever is in the DeploymentPro for UserActivation user list with what we discover with the LDAP lookup so that we can track the user's progress in DeploymentPro.
Note: When DeploymentPro for UserActivation discovers the user's Source address through the LDAP lookup, it removes everything after the @ and creates a hash that is used to authenticate with DeploymentPro. As long as the usernames match, it does not matter what comes after the @ (i.e., if the SMTP is email@example.com and the email address specified in DeploymentPro is firstname.lastname@example.com, the authentication will be successful).
Destination Email address:
This is the email address that DeploymentPro for UserActivation will use to configure an Outlook profile. We recommend specifying the primary SMTP address in Office 365 or Exchange. In most cases, this will match the UPN in Office 365 or Exchange.
Note: If UPN and SMTP addresses mis-match, then follow directions in KB005458, to set the correct address.
UPN: a User Principal Name can exist in any of the following formats:
- email@example.com
- email@example.com
- company\johndoe (legacy environments)
Example PowerShell scripts (for Office 365) to help you obtain the Source and Destination email addresses:
Import-Module activedirectory
get-aduser -filter * -properties name, userprincipalname, emailaddress, proxyaddresses | select name, userprincipalname, emailaddress,@{L='ProxyAddresses'; E={$_.proxyaddresses[0]}} | export-csv "C:\temp\userslist.csv"
Or use the following to obtain the Office 365 information, if the Destination side of the project is not synchronized in Active Directory:
$office365userlist = get-mailbox | select-object -property name, Displayname, userprincipalname, EmailAddresses | export-csv -Path C:\temp\Office365userslist.csv -NoTypeInformation

Allow Me to Tell You Why Giving Yourself Your First Brazilian Is a Terrible Idea
It's basically SAW: Beauty Edition.
I wish I could remember Thanksgivings as a kid. My parents were both great cooks, we had a real formal dining room and living room with white carpet and white silk furniture no one was allowed in except for occasions like this (the idea of two spare rooms for this purpose is ridiculously foreign to me) and we had family in town. But not a single one sticks out.
Maybe because they weren't really mine. Because the Thanksgivings I've been a real part of, that I've had a role in, been surrounded by my people… I remember every single one of those. Every scant detail.
And that's the thing -- not all of them were hit-em-out-of-the-park meals. Not all of them came off smoothly or on time. But they were mine. I was surrounded by great people and anything that didn't work was smothered by roaring laughter and people genuinely happy to be a part of the day.
Now that you're hosting your own Thanksgiving, this is the important gift I can give you. Before you drive yourself insane with elaborate plans and over the top recipes, I want you to know no one will ever talk about your Thanksgiving in terms of how moist the turkey was or how great the garlic tasted in the mashed potatoes.
They'll talk about how hard you everyone laughed about a particular joke, or the bet about how late so and so would show up, or the amazing Cards Against Humanity play someone made. Every time the plans scale up and become more elaborate, slap yourself on the hand and remember this is your holiday and you need to be able to enjoy it. Being stuck in a kitchen won't be fun for you or for anyone else there.
The first hurdle for throwing your own Thanksgiving is often the cost. We've got an entire media trying to tell us about new tools we need, special heritage birds, or expensive pots and pans, special spices. None of those things will make the day more special, though they might make it easier. Don't be intimidated by the overwhelming amount of information flying at you and the things you'll need. In the end, you'll require very little in way of tools.
Also consider borrowing the items if possible from friends who aren't hosting a dinner. If you're REALLY lucky, you might have a kitchen library in your area.
Budget enough for these items and all that's left is the groceries, which are based on what you're making. Standard Thanksgiving fare includes the turkey, stuffing/dressing, potatoes (mashed and/or sweet), vegetables (green beans, root vegetables, etc), gravy, cranberries and pie for dessert.
Families of course have their own variations and dishes, and just because there is a "traditional" range of dishes doesn't mean you need to stick to it. Something to be conscious of is that by inviting people, it is not just your Thanksgiving anymore, but your friends', and they may have some traditional expectations for the holiday. Let them know ahead of time if you won't be preparing a turkey, and absolutely offer them the opportunity to bring something that makes them feel at home.
There's also no rule that you can't cater part of the meal or all of the meal, run it as a potluck, or that you have to make everything from scratch. I can make a good pie crust, but there are times I skip ahead and buy a premade pie crust -- because I can. Hell, there's a place down the street from you that can probably make a killer pie. There is no shame in putting really good food, that supports local businesses on your table. Not for nothing, it is often less expensive.
The list below assumes you are going to do a very basic Thanksgiving. Anything you'd do to bump it up, dishes you add, etc should be added to this list.
Roasted turkey w dressing
Mashed potatoes
Sweet potatoes
Green beans
Cranberry Sauce
Pumpkin pie
Shopping List
Open shopping list in google docs
For each person who's going to attend, figure 1lb of turkey. This seems like a lot, but frankly, a lot of the turkey isn't actually meat, but carcass, so you figure that in. Also, not for nothing, but people eat a LOT OF FREAKING TURKEY. Also: leftovers.
Anything less than an 8lb bird is not only unobtainable, but worthless due to small amount of meat. I've gone as big as 22lbs. Consider your oven size as well -- a really huge bird isn't going to fit into a really small oven. If you have a standard oven, almost any size bird will fit just fine.
While I would recommend, from my own ethical perspective, purchasing a turkey that had lived a good life and died a good death with as little stress as possible, do not allow this recommendation to weigh too heavily on you. I do not fundamentally believe "heritage" or organic birds taste better, and I am fully aware they are more expensive.
If you have the budget to splurge in any part of the meal, I'd ask it is for a bird from a local farmer you trust, who's raised his own birds and can tell you how they're raised and how they die. Factory farming of poultry is terrible and cruel, and of all days, it's my wish that on a day to be thankful, we do so in a way that doesn't cost any living being a miserable existence. The more we purchase ethically raised birds, the more we encourage this behavior in the farming industry.
As for everything else, I spent a whole lifetime trying to figure out what to buy for an appropriate serving size until a year ago when someone briefly explained that I was being an idiot and it was as simple as doing it in handfuls. How many green beans do I need to buy? One person will eat a handful, so 8 people will need 8 handfuls.
How much mashed potatoes? Figure 1 large potato per person. Same for sweet potatoes.
How much pie? 1 pie will feed 6-8 people a good sized portion, and if you have multiple pies people tend to take smaller slices of a few different ones.
For each 4 potatoes you need 1 cup of cream and 4 tbsp of butter. For each sweet potato you'll need a tbsp of brown sugar and some cinnamon.
For the pumpkin pie you'll need a can of pumpkin pie filling and either a pre made pie crust or you can make one, requiring 2 cups of flour and 1 stick of butter.
You'll need a few sticks of butter for the turkey and a bottle of white wine, cheap is fine, sweet is fine. Butter being something that you always need and that never goes bad, making sure you have extra is not a bad thing.
The Week Before
Now's a good time to start clearing out your refrigerator. You'll be amazed how much room you'll need, so while you still need to eat this week, its time to clear out the stuff that can go.
If you're going to shop at the farmers' market, that's got to happen the week before. Confirm your turkey with your store/farmer/butcher. Confirm your guests so you can make sure you have the chairs, dishes, ingredients you need. If you've asked people to bring things, double check. For instance, at my house, I do not purchase alcohol, I leave that to guests to bring with them. But a wineless house holiday would suck, so I double check.
Make sure you have enough toilet paper for the bathroom and a few rolls are accessible, and hand towels are clean. I like to hand bandaids in case I cut or burn myself during the day.
It's also a good time to start cleaning. Don't leave it until the night before. Check your napkins if you're using cloth and wash them and a tablecloth if you'll be using one. Get out the wine glasses and run them through the dishwasher if they're dusty, same for the plates. Create a space for coats and purses. Take out all your serving dishes and make sure you have enough for what you're making. I use a sticky pad and write what will go in each.
Remember to pick up the bird, and if it's frozen, start defrosting it three days ahead of time in your refrigerator.
The Day Before
I execute the final clean the day before Thanksgiving, meaning the table is set, the bathroom is clean, my kitchen is completely ready to roll, and my refrigerator is ready to accept dishes. I have all my groceries and I'm set.
Any pies can and should be made the day before. No reason to stress yourself with them. You can prep vegetables and make the stuffing/dressing the day before. Cranberry sauce can be made the day before. Even mashed potatoes can be made the day before, and sweet potatoes can as well. Recipes for pies and sides will be forthcoming in articles over the next week or two.
Before you go to sleep, go over the schedule for the next day. The only important thing is that the turkey get into the oven at the right time. The chart below will show you how long to cook the turkey, but add one entire hour to the total time since your turkey needs to "rest" before you eat. I also recommend adding another 30 minutes to that because… you know. Shit happens. Better to give yourself some padding.
Weight of Turkey - Time to Cook
4½-7 lbs. - 2-2½ hrs.
7-9 lbs. - 2½-3 hrs.
9-18 lbs. - 3-3½ hrs.
18-22 lbs. - 3½-4 hrs.
22-24 lbs. - 4-4½ hrs.
24-30 lbs. - 4½-5 hrs.
Take out a stick of butter and leave it on the counter to get to room temperature overnight. Set your alarm, and hit the hay.
Wake up, and take a deep breath. You've done the work -- today will not be overwhelming. Turn the oven to 400 degrees, make sure the racks are on the bottom rungs of the oven. Throw some herbs in a bowl. Sage, rosemary and thyme are great, I add salt and pepper, and some paprika never hurt for color.
Get the turkey out, unwrap it, reach into the big cavity and pull out everything. It's a bag and the turkey neck. It's a mental thing, its really not gross. Although delicious in the gravy, we're not going to use the giblets in the basic recipe below, so feed them to the dog or toss. Save the neck, and rinse the entire turkey off, inside and out, and pat it dry.
Do this without any other food around the sink, because there's evidence that the water spatters and you get cross contamination. Place the turkey it in the rack breast side down.
Now… with use your hands to smear the turkey with the soft butter, and then sprinkle some of the herbs on and rub everything into the skin. Now, sprinkle some of the herbs into the cavity and rub it in. Then flip over so its breast side up, and use the rest of the butter and herbs and rub them in completely.
Take a piece of string and tie the drumsticks together, crossing them. There is no "correct" way to do this, just tie them together. The point is to not have them flapping around getting too much heat. Use small pieces of tin foil to cover the tips of the wings.
Take out a large piece of tin foil and fold it in half, creating a triangle. Now place it on top of the turkey breast molding it slightly to the bird. And then, take it off! You don't need it yet. Put it aside.
IT IS TIME. As long as the oven is to temperature, put the bird in the oven, set the oven for 30 minutes. Then wash your hands. Then wash 'em again.
Now take out a small saucepan, dump in 1 stick of butter and the bottle of white wine and the turkey neck. Turn it onto medium, high, let it come to a boil and melt together and then put them on low and on the back burner.
Because then you're going to turn the bird around, give it another 15 minutes at 400 degrees. This should have given your turkey a great seared and roasty skin. Now its time to turn it down to 325 degrees and put on that tin foil bikini.
And, time to baste! Here's the hint: you want the oven open as little as possible, so be ready. Open it, with one hand holding the pot of basting liquid (the butter/wine) nearby; don't leave it on the stovetop. The other hand holding the baster, suck up some of the liquid and then spit it, aiming down, at the turkey. Don't overshoot, it's not the olympics and you just baste the oven that way. Just do it once, then close it. Set the timer for 30 minutes. Every time it goes off, baste and then reset the timer. If you run out of basting liquid, use the baster to suck up some of the liquid in the bottom of the roasting pan instead.
Get your green beans ready to go into the saute pan. Wash them, trim the edges, put them into a ziplock with a bit of olive oil and salt and pepper and send them back to the fridge.
Turn on the parade. Start drinking.
What? I mean, start cutting out turkey-themed table decorations. (Someone needs to, I'll be busy drinking.)
Two hours before the turkey is going to come out of the oven, it's time to get ready. Take out all pans in the refrigerator: the mashed potatoes, the sweet potatoes and the stuffing. Let them get to room temperature.
The thermometer is the sole foreteller of turkey doneness. When inserted INTO THE BREAST (and not hitting the bone) it should read 165. When it does, its time to take the bird out. It's heavier than you think and now it's hot. Have a place for it to go, with a towel down and ready or a trivet.
As soon as it's down, cover it in tin foil and walk away. The turkey will continue to cook a bit and you now have an hour. Immediately move the racks in the oven, one stays on the bottom and one in the middle. Put the stuffing on the bottom rack, and the mashed potatoes and sweet potatoes next to each other on the top rack. Everything should have tin foil on top so it cooks, but doesn't dry out. Turn the oven to 375. Set the timer for 45 minutes.
Get everyone out of your kitchen, it's time to work.
Saute the green beans: heat a fry or saute pan to medium high. Wait a minute then dump the green beans in, having the final serving dish for it nearby. Stir the green beans, but they really don't take very long at all, a few minutes. As soon as they're dark green, take them off, dump them into the serving dish and cover it with foil.
Now wipe the pan out and throw in another 4 tbsp of butter and let it melt over medium heat. Throw in 2 tbsp of flour and let it sit for 30 seconds, then begin stirring it into the butter over the heat. As soon as it starts to bubble, take it off the heat. Slowly start to pour in ¼ cup of the remaining basting liquid and stir furiously so you don't get lumps. Remove the turkey neck from the basting liquid (and if you're starving, eat it!) Then pour everything back into the pot for the basting liquid and stir over medium heat.
As it heats up and bubbles, it should start to thicken. Bam, gravy! Use your baster to grab some juices from the bottom of the turkey pan and add those to the gravy, stir in. If you have not yet yielded enough gravy, use some chicken stock to give you volume.
Pull the foil off everything in the oven and put it back in. Put the green bean dish next to the stuffing.
It's time to put the turkey onto a cutting board. They sell turkey lifters for this, but they're really just two giant forks. Use any implement you can to move the bird, and its helpful to have one person lift it, and another slide the cutting board underneath it instead of trying to go mobile with your bird in flight. I like to put a towel down underneath the cutting board because of all the juices that'll go everywhere.
This is a GREAT thing to offer a guest, the opportunity to cut the turkey, if they know what they're doing. Otherwise, it's on you. I can't describe it better than they do here:
While this is happening, have your guests begin to put the hot dishes onto the table. Make sure to put towels or trivets down on the table, and place big spoons or serving spoons into each dish. Pour the gravy into your gravy boat and put it on the table. Put the cranberry sauce on the table.
Plate the turkey on your serving plate, and once everyone is seated, its time to step into the room with the turkey!
You DID IT. Congrats.
After the Meal
Let your friends do the dishes. Not just because its polite of them to offer and you did all the work, but because they want to feel like they're a part of the dinner. You can focus on leftovers and getting things set up to put away.
Carve the entire bird til there is nothing left on it. Put a giant pot of water on the stove, throw the carcass in it, put a cover on it and leave it. Almost all leftovers can go into ziplocks and be generous giving away the sweet potatoes and stuffing to guests -- they have a time limit on how long they last. Save the vegetables and mashed potatoes and gravy. The turkey can go right into a ziplock, and I toss in a tbsp of gravy or two and then suck the air out of the bag. This will keep it moist.
Once guests leave, turn the stove onto medium heat under the pot w the carcass and let it cook for an hour. Then strain it over a colander, save the stock and toss everything else, and the pot can sit on the stove overnight with the heat off. The next morning, you can strain the fat off the top, throw the stock into ziplocks or containers and put it in the fridge to be used for leftovers, to be covered in another article.
These are VERY basic recipes, guaranteed to get you through the first thanksgiving. Of course, you can bump them up, and we'll have tons of recipes over the next three weeks to do so. There is no right way to do Thanksgiving, so more than anything else, don't let it stress you out.
Because PILGRIMS.

English Rules: A Russo-British Comedy of Errors
Paperback, 192 Pages
Price: $11.83
Prints in 3-5 business days
Sashok, a Russian living in southern England with his British wife and her parents, leads a monotonous existence, ever fearful that he has not fully adapted to his foreign surroundings and might commit a cultural faux-pas. One day his routine is broken when he is accosted on his morning commute by a man of outlandish appearance and manner. Sashok's attention is distracted by the man's antics while his briefcase is switched and replaced by an identical one. This incident sets off a bizarre chain of events drawing Sashok into a surreal scam involving doppelgangers and a honey-trap agent. The intricate plot of shady criminal dealings, though, masks a story about identity. This is at once a comic thriller and a comedy of errors; a tale of interaction between cultures and national mentalities and an ironic study of British eccentricity seen this time through Russian eyes.

Locks and Herring, Can Compensate Everything – Copenhagen, Denmark
Locks and Herring, Can Compensate Everything
Copenhagen, Denmark
"Why am I always travelling to the south?," must I have been thinking when I visited Copenhagen for the first time. To be honest, I had this opportunity to stay a week in Denmark thanks to DJ Ishtar, a girlfriend who was participating in an art project developed by one of Scandinavia's famous artistic directors called Kirsten Dehlholm.
So, before I knew it, I was staying at the Hotel Pro Forma (Kirsten's atelier and the name of her company. It's not a hotel!) between hard working Scandinavian art-related employees. Every morning I had to pass them in their office in my underwear and a towel around my neck to be able to take a shower. I thought Dutch people were tolerant, but the Danish are much more relaxed when it comes to nudity at work. Anyway, I was lucky to get introduced into Copenhagen by Denmark's more artistic levelled community and therefore I felt blessed!
It already in the afternoon, when everybody at Hotel Pro Forma gathered together for the breakfast. There I've met people who can make eating their lunch at work cultivated and refined. I can tell you that. The Danish do not only create high-end design stuff (lego, furniture, architecture, etc.) to use but also to eat! First thing to do when you are in Denmark is going to one of those huge supermarkets and check out the well-designed food. Not only the packaging is highly attractive, also what's inside those jolly jars, packings, bottles, etc. Especially the herring section is incredible!
I immediately felt at home as you can conclude. Just like they've created their food in stores that perfectly, the same counts for the buildings in the city: colourful and tasty!
In the center almost every building has been painted in a different colour. It looked like being in Havana-Cuba or somewhere in the Mediterranean. Sophisticated people who understood the meaning of life, I obviously thought. To compensate the weather conditions, they make sure that everything else in life remains in its aesthetic value or at least becomes aesthetically. From this point of view, it is a bit of a contradiction that the notorious cartoons weren't that funny at all. Symbolic speaking, it is a good horse that never stumbles. Even a Viking can loose his blond locks once in a while…

The RE-Battery is a rechargeable battery used to store and transfer power between machines. It can be charged in a energy storage (like BatBox) or any kind of a Generator. Batteries can accumulate up to 10000 EUs - that's two fully charged generators or 25% of a full BatBox. RE batteries are a basic method of managing your energy flow. On the long run it's advised to use Cables for a constant energy transfer.
Charged batteries won't stack and can't be used in crafting, however they can be used again after discharging. Batteries don't suffer any kind of decay or energy loss.
Crafted batteries are empty, unlike Single-use batteries.
As a crafting ingredientEdit
The RE-Battery can be used to craft the Energy Loader.==
To run a machine on a battery power, right click the machine and place a battery in a bottom slot, under the lighting symbol. To feed a machine with the battery using a tube or a pipe, connect it to the bottom side of the block. Note that when using RedPower tubing, you can pull the battery out only by using a Retriever. Simple machines like Transposers will cover the bottom side of the machine, making it unable to receive another input to that slot.

New School Year, New Places to Grow- Sideyard Unveiled
The start of a new school year means another year of learning and growth at Chicago Waldorf School, and with that comes our newly updated side yard! After a summer full of hard work and volunteering by Waldorf faculty, students, and community members, our newly redesigned side yard was unveiled at the start of the school year.
The new additions to the side yard include a slide and tire climb attached to the barn, a sandbox, a grassy hill for climbing, and a brand new fence. Waldorf students are continuously using play as a tool for learning, discovering the world around them, finding a sense of self, and also forming relationships with others. These additions will provide and even more engaging space for students to play, discover, and learn.
Thanks to our community volunteers who invested materials and chipped in to create this amazing recreation of the sideyard. Your work is enjoyed every day by the children!
Special thanks go out to Ashley Gambill, who led the project and contributed many hours to its success!
Chicago Waldorf School is also greatly appreciative of the following people and organizations for generously contributing their time, energy, and resources that helped make this happen:
- Gethsamene Gardens: donated, delivered and unloaded 47 free pallets
- Jay and staff at Clark/Devon Hardware: donated over $300 worth of supplies for repairing, creating, and sustaining of the fence
- Tanja Buehler with Atwood Hoffmann Design LLC: created the design for the grass mounds and hauled old dirt and sand out and put new of both, built sandbox
- Angelo & Elena Nikolov: donated sand, money for the slide and other new equipment to come
- Mark Miller: was the architect of the original barn and also planned the newest additions and alterations
- Jim Moratto: worked with Mark to install the slide, the new archways in the barn and the railings for the tire climb
- Pat O'Malley: helped build the tire climb and new entryway and loaned his own tools to help build the fence
- John Augustyn: built the new entryway and tire climb as well as the new table in the courtyard
- Michael Berger: led the building in the pallet fence
- Theresa Hermanns: helped stain the new pallet fence and water the grass on the weekends
- High School Students: for their community service: Olivia Chambers, George Galkine, Jessica Kriho, Chris Kriho, Nate McIntosh, Sali Hasanbegovic, Nicole Wade, Konnie Stormont, Julian Berrios and Aiden Zielinksi as well as others students, Ford Walters and Margot Chambers
- Naomi Love and Family: donated all the tires for the tire climb
- Sideyard Task Force: designed and helped create the idea of the alternations. This group included Ashley Gambill, Andrea Shaffer, Jackie Votanek, Kristin Garrison, Katherine Rogers and Luke Goodwin, in particular who continuously checked for progress on the project, stained pallets and watered the grass

IHOP franchisor drops owner of raided restaurants
Tue, 29 May 2012 13:44:20 GMT —
The official franchisor of IHOP restaurants has severed its agreement with the owner of seven area locations after he was indicted on felony charges last week.
Tarek Elkafrawi and 17 other employees were arrested on charges of money laundering, identity theft and harboring illegal immigrants after an FBI raid last year revealed criminal activity.
DineEquity, Inc., IHOP's franchisor, terminated Elkafrawi's franchise agreement for seven IHOP locations in Ohio and Evansville, Ind. The company also placed management teams at six of the IHOP locations to ensure proper operating procedures and customer service standards are followed until a new franchisee is secured.
The restaurants in Toledo, Holland, Perrysburg, Lima and Evansville are all open for business. The restaurant in Findlay has been closed and employees have been offered the opportunity to be considered for positions at the other IHOP restaurants, according to a news release.
The company had no further comment due to continued legal proceedings in connection with the matter.

They spent time examining who the explorers were their aims, obstacles and accomplishments as well as the impact exploration had on Native Americans. In this learning activity students worked on the skills of paraphrasing and using textual evidence. Students were broken into groups of three to create a section of a book, once each section was complete Ms. Rovnak compiled the work into two class books. Check out their creations below!

Re-Applying to a Nursing School: Use Same Prof for LoR?
I was waitlisted earlier this year for an ABSN program that started last July, one that ultimately did not offer me admission due to filling all their seats. This school requires 3 letters of recommendation (LoR). I am applying once again to this school for 2011 and would very much like to request a recommendation letter from the professor that wrote me one for this same school last year. I have no doubt that he wrote a great one for me and will do so again (I took A&P 1 and 2 with him and got A's) but I just have a minor (perhaps irrelevant) concern about using him again for re-application. Will it look funny/bad for my application if I am using him again? He's pretty much going to say the same thing he said last year I think. What can he do that's new? The school application does ask whether I have previously applied, when and for what program so I assume they would have access to my file from last year? Dunno.
As far as the other two LoRs, I will be requesting them from my micro professor (whose course I had not taken yet when I applied a year ago) and one from the director of volunteer services at the hospital where I volunteer who has directly observed my work on a weekly basis for the last 18 months. Last year, I used one from the chairperson of my volunteer service (no doubt a good one, but she's now on leave) and one from a director who has known me in my non-nursing job for a few years now (semi-supervisory role. I am sure she also wrote a nice one but in hindsight I think it did not have too much weight on my application to a nursing school, which is why I have opted this year instead to use 2 academic references and 1 from the hospital).
Hoping I can get a response soon, as I am planning on going to campus tomorrow morning (Monday) to see these professors during their office hours.

I'll just take a chance that this repeat recommender thing won't be an issue. He's going to use most of the same info as last year but he will spin it a little differently with recent info.
Request mods close this thread as I don't need any more feedback on this. Thanks!

It's still wait-and-see for the Mets about David Wright's availability.
Wright's visit to a hand specialist yesterday produced "good" news, according to a team source, in that his fractured right pinky isn't any worse than originally thought. But it remains to be seen if Wright will need an extended absence from the lineup.
Wright broke the finger diving back into first base on a pickoff attempt Monday night. He struggled to grip a bat the following day and was subsequently scratched from the lineup.
The Mets released a statement yesterday saying Wright can return to baseball activity "as tolerated." A second source indicated Wright may attempt to take batting practice tonight in Philadelphia and a decision on his availability would follow.
Ronny Cedeno has played third base the last two games and likely would remain in that spot if Wright is close to returning. But if Wright needs a disabled-list stint, the team could slide Daniel Murphy to third base and play Justin Turner at second.
* R.A. Dickey has struggled in his two career starts with the Mets at Citizens Bank Park, going 0-2 with a 6.00 ERA. The Phillies hit .390 against Dickey in those two appearances.
Dickey will be working on five days' rest after allowing two runs in a victory over the Braves last Saturday.

The success of the BMW X6 has not only given us the new X4 Sports Activity Coupe, but it also opens a new class of compact SUVs. Based of the second-generation F48 BMW X1, the BMW X2 SAC will launch in 2017 with a three-door configuration.
The design has yet to be unveiled through the usual real-life testing sessions, so we'll have to rely on rendering artists to portray the X2.
Theophilus Chin takes some design cues from the recent X models and combines them with the F22 BMW 2 Series Coupe to give us an interesting look of the dynamic X1 offshoot.
Some new design cues will make their way into the final design as well, with a focus on round narrow, angular headlights, sharp creases and an enlarged double kidney grille.
An M Sports Package was added to the rendering, along with four tailpipes at the rear to give the X2 a dynamic look.
Power will come from a wide range of engines, three and four-cylinder units. At the low-end of the range, we will find the 1.5 liter turbo petrol and diesel found in the 218i and 218d Active Tourer. At the the top of the family, a performance X2 vehicle with 300 horsepower might appear as well to compete with the Mercedes GLA 45 AMG and Audi RS Q3.
A plug-in hybrid version is likely as well, promising 100mpg-plus.[Photoshop: Theophilus Chin]

The incidence of testicular cancer continued to rise in the United States over the past decade, most notably among Hispanic men, according to the results of a study presented at the annual meeting of the American Urological Association in San Diego, California.
Testicular cancer is the most common cancer diagnosed among young men ages 15 to 45. The testicles are located inside the scrotum (a sac of loose skin that lies directly under the penis). Testicular cancer—also called germ cell cancer—occurs in the tissues of one or both testicles. Testicular cancers are relatively rare but highly curable. The incidence of testicular cancer has been on the rise for quite some time—in fact, the rate of testicular cancer doubled in the United States between 1975 and 2003.
The cause of testicular cancer is poorly understood. Developed countries have a higher prevalence of the disease than undeveloped countries, which suggests that environmental factors may be involved. An increased incidence of testicular cancer has been associated with early puberty, testicular trauma, cigarette and marijuana smoking, and exposure to toxic substances such as lead.
To examine whether testicular cancer rates continued to rise after 2003, researchers analyzed data from the National Cancer Institute's Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. The results indicated that the overall incidence of testicular cancer rose annually by 1.1 percent, increasing from 5.7 cases per 100,000 in 1992 to 6.8/100,000 in 2009. The incidence rate rose steadily across all racial/ethnic groups except Asian/Pacific Islanders who saw a decline between 1992 and 2003 and then an increase between 2003 and 2009, which averaged out to a 0.77 percent annual increase.
White men still have the highest incidence rate. Among white men, the rate of testicular cancer increased from 7.5/100,000 in 1992 to 8.4/100,000 in 2003 and 8.6/100,000 in 2009, representing an annual increase of 1.2 percent. In black men, the incidence rate rose annually by 1.4 percent—from 0.7/100,000 in 1992 to 1.4 in 2003 and 1.7 in 2009.
Notably, the incidence rate among Hispanic men saw a huge jump in the last decade. Between 1992 and 2002, their rate of testicular cancer increased by 0.7 percent annually; however, between 2002 and 2009, that annual increase jumped to 5.6 percent—from 4.9/100,000 in 2003 to 6.3/100,000 in 2009.
There was a significant increase in both localized (1.21% per year) and metastatic (1.4% per year) testicular germ-cell tumors. White men experienced an increase in the rate of localized cancer (1.56% annually), while Hispanic men experienced significant annual increases in localized (2.6%), regional (16.5%), and distant metastatic (2.6%) disease.
The researchers concluded that the incidence rates for testicular cancer continue to rise in the United States, most notably among Hispanic men. The reasons for the rise are unclear.

Oscar winners Colin Firth and Cate Blanchett are currently tipped to take on the lead roles in the drama about author Erskine Caldwell and his late photographer wife Margaret Bourke-White.
A spokesperson has confirmed Streisand's involvement but tells Reuters the film has not been given the greenlight as the Funny Girl star is yet to raise the $20 million needed.

Is this the UKs dumbest criminal?
A 39-year-old man arrested after he reported a lost bag to police – which contained £2,000 of heroin.
The criminal mastermind was picked up by a taxi on Friday morning outside a chemist in Bonnybridge, near Falkirk.
But when he was dropped off in nearby Denny he left his bag behind. And the driver was shocked to discover it contained the Class A drug.
Police launched an investigation after the bag was handed over to officers in Bonnybridge, the Daily Record reports.
Meanwhile, the bungling crook decided to conduct his own inquiry and on Saturday he returned to the chemist where he was picked up.
It is understood police officers were already there making inquiries about the drugs when the criminal mastermind told them about his lost bag.
He was swiftly arrested and is expected to appear before Falkirk Sheriff Court today.
Police Scotland are certainly making the most of the case.
The force's Falkirk office tweeted: "We found a lost bag containing over £2,000 in heroin on Friday. Luckily the loser popped in to report it lost and we were able to arrest him."
So far the message has been retweeted more than 2,000 times.

Ortho•Bone is an advanced bone health formula providing nutrients that are fundamental for mineral deposition in bone and for regulating the excretion of minerals. These nutrients are very important for those with osteoporosis, osteopenia or a history of bone fractures. Ingredients include a superior source of calcium, microcrystalline hydroxyapatite complex (MCHC) from New Zealand bovine bone, vitamins C, D3, K2, B12 and folate, and minerals boron, magnesium, manganese, silicon, zinc and copper. Together, these ingredients provide one of the best formulas available for promoting bone health and preventing osteoporosis and osteopenia.
Ortho•Bone is unique because it serves not only to reduce bone loss but to maintain or even increase bone growth. MCHC contains more than calcium: it contains all of the minerals and proteins found in bone, is rich in phosphorus, and provides growth factors that stimulate bone growth. The most effective forms of vitamins D & K2 are found in Ortho•Bone, serving to enhance the body's absorption and usage of calcium. Vitamin C and silicon support collagen production, which builds the framework for bone. Magnesium makes up a large part of the bone mineral matrix; boron reduces magnesium loss; trace minerals manganese, zinc and copper are co-factors for enzymes involved in bone metabolism. Vitamins B12 and folate help reduce homocysteine, a metabolic byproduct that is thought to be toxic to bone fibers.
Ortho•Bone is a serious bone health product for serious bone health support, with a dose of 10 capsules per day delivering 1000 mg of calcium. Those with osteoporosis or osteopenia, frail post-menopausal women and elderly people in general will benefit the most from taking Ortho•Bone.
•Provides active, effective forms of key bone-health nutrients
•Improves bone growth & bone density while reducing bone loss
•An unrivalled comprehensive bone formula exclusively available by AOR

The Helicopter Vapor-Cycle Air Conditioning System
Although it would not be uncommon to see air conditioning in VIP helicopters, the vapor-cycle cooling system is more common than people might think. Once thought to be a luxury item, systems are becoming mission essential due to shifting attitudes about cabin comfort linked to air crew performance, and the recent legislative push to require air conditioners for Helicopter Emergency Medical Services (HEMS) operators.
The effect of aircraft cabin temperature and ventilation on crew performance has long been a subject of aeromedical study by flight physiologists and physicians alike. The bottom line is that if helicopters do not have air conditioning, air crews should be fully aware of the possibility that heat stress can affect mission readiness and efficiency. Therefore, it should not come as a surprise that the major helicopter OEMs offer the availability of air conditioning in most of their models. This has also stepped-up the need for expert maintenance practices and for HEMS operators, making the difference between flight readiness and AOG.
In this article we will try to unlock some of the mysteries of helicopter air conditioning systems to understand how they work and what it takes to keep them operating. We'll explore some of the misconceptions of how they cool and what the limits are in extreme temperature and humidity conditions. Lastly, we'll cover general servicing and troubleshooting tips.
The Fundamentals
Air conditioning systems for helicopters have been around for a long time. Some systems in fact still operate with the old CFC-12 (R12) refrigerant, while the newer vapor-cycle systems are serviced with the more environmentally friendly HFC-134a (R134a). This section contains a general overview of a typical vapor-cycle air conditioning system and how it functions.
This type of system operates in a closed loop, in which the refrigerant absorbs heat from the cabin and rejects it into the outside air. The refrigerant then returns to the cabin to repeat the cycle. The operation of the system is described below and involves these major components: compressor, condenser, receiver-dryer, and evaporator. (See Figure 1 on page 8.)
The compressor (consider it the heart of the system), receives through the suction port, low pressure heat laden refrigerant vapor from the evaporator. The compressor pressurizes the refrigerant depending on system demand. This increases the temperature of the refrigerant. At this temperature and pressure the refrigerant is above its boiling point. The compressor then discharges, out the discharge port, superheated refrigerant vapor to the condenser.
The refrigerant flows into the condenser. The condenser has numerous cooling fins in which the vapor is pumped. In the condenser the high pressure vapor condenses into a high pressure liquid. This is achieved by using a fan to force air over the surface of the condenser enabling heat to transfer from the refrigerant to the outside air thus reducing its temperature. Ideally, only refrigerant in the form of a high pressure liquid leaves the condenser outlet.
The high pressure liquid refrigerant flows into the receiver-dryer which stores, dries and filters the liquid refrigerant. The liquid refrigerant then flows from the receiver-dryer to the expansion valves. The expansion valves change the refrigerant into low pressure, low temperature liquid/vapor by lowering the pressure using a variable orifice. The orifice has high pressure on one side (from the receiver-dryer), and low pressure on the other side (evaporator and compressor), and allows a small quantity of refrigerant to flow through it. The sudden drop in pressure and temperature causes some of the refrigerant to vaporize. The low pressure low temperature liquid/vapor then flows to the evaporator where the heat is transferred from its surface to the refrigerant through vaporization. The heat comes from inside the cabin and is blown over the evaporator's surface. Once the refrigerant has completely vaporized and reached its saturation point it should still be able to carry more heat. The refrigerant continues to flow through the remainder of the evaporator coils absorbing more heat and becoming slightly superheated. Thus, air is blown through the evaporator, has its heat extracted/transferred to the refrigerant, resulting in cooled air being ducted into the cockpit and cabin through strategically placed air outlets.
The low pressure low temperature slightly superheated vapor refrigerant flows to the compressor and the cycle repeats itself.
Some systems incorporate a refrigerant bypass system to eliminate compressor clutch cycling. The bypass improves temperature control and extends compressor and belt life significantly.
How does it work? Design features may vary but, generally, the bypass system senses evaporator temperature. When it reaches the point designated by the cockpit temperature control knob, the bypass valve opens and refrigerant bypasses the evaporators and is returned to the compressor to repeat the cycle. This occurs until the evaporator coil temperature rises above the set-point. The bypass valve closes and the refrigerant completes its cycle through the cockpit and cabin evaporators.
Effective Cooling
Now to clear up a common misconception regarding how the air conditioning system cools a helicopter, we will explore the concept of "effective cooling." Mechanics may hear an owner/operator's complaint go something like this, "I want that air conditioning to blow ice cubes and cool the helicopter like my dad's Buick!" It just doesn't work that way. Design is a major factor in solving the challenges of cooling a non-pressurized aircraft flying at low altitude, where large amounts of glass providing great visibility create a "flying greenhouse" effect. Designers must address the difficulty of creating a uniformly cool ambient temperature in the helicopter, and thus the importance of providing huge quantities of cold air directly to the head and torsos of the crew members and passengers. Sufficient air flow from appropriately sized evaporators, blowers, cleanly-designed ducts, and large outlets, are critical to ensuring passenger comfort. All the British Thermal Units per Hour (BTUh) in the world means nothing, if the passenger does not have sufficient air flow. Basically, it is not the same as cooling your dad's Buick or any automobile for that matter. For helicopters, placing evaporators near strategically placed air outlets helps ensure cool air flows with sufficient volume and velocity to keep everyone in front of an air outlet comfortable. The cockpit is especially challenging with its large windscreens and avionics adding even more to cockpit heat signatures. Thus, effective cooling is influenced by evaporator size, quantity and location, making air conditioners a study in trade-offs since weight and real estate in helicopters can be limiting factors.
For the HEMS community, effective cooling becomes critical. According to Life Flight pilot Jerry Jones, the average emergency flight is typically 25 to 30 minutes and extremely hot conditions can cause dangers to patients.
The Nuts and Bolts
Clearly, maintaining air conditioning systems at their optimum can become mission essential. Many HEMS operators will ground their helicopters if the air conditioning is inoperative. Now, let's discuss maintenance, servicing, and troubleshooting tips. Since many systems differ in design and features, the discussion will be limited to typical systems and operating conditions.
The keys to an air conditioner operating at optimum performance involve the following factors:
• Proper refrigerant and oil charge
• A sealed system with no leaks, free of moisture and contamination
• Evaporator and condenser coils free of debris obstructing air flow
• Evaporator and condenser blowers working properly.
Refer to the specific system Instructions for Continued Airworthiness (ICA) or maintenance manual for additional information regarding periodic inspection criteria. Here is a typical checklist to ensure trouble-free operation:
• Check the compressor for security of hardware and signs of oil or refrigerant leaks.
• Check compressor drive belt (if applicable) for proper installation, condition and tension. Replace the belt if it shows signs of excessive wear (glazing, cracks, or exposed fibers).
• Replacement of the receiver-drier bottle is a good idea if:
- Any air conditioner component has been replaced
- The system refrigerant has been evacuated
- Any of the refrigerant plumbing lines have been disconnected
- The system has been flushed
- If in doubt, replace it.
• Check system plumbing lines and hoses for security, condition and signs of leaks.
• Do an air conditioner performance test. Be aware that comfort is provided by "effective cooling." That is, cold air is directed, via strategically placed outlets, to the head and torso areas of passengers and crew rather than trying to create a uniformly cool ambient temperature in the helicopter. Outlet temperature readings should be taken by inserting a mechanical temperature probe into the air outlet. Laser temperature sensing devices do not work for this application. Depending on the inside and outside air temperature and humidity conditions, performance should be compared to the criteria given in the appropriate ICA or maintenance manual.
• If the air conditioner is not cooling effectively, the most common cause is the level of refrigerant charge or leaks in the system. Recovering the refrigerant, evacuating the system, leak detection and recharging the system with the specified amount is the most effective way to ensure proper charging. If a leak is detected, locating and repairing the leak will be necessary before recharging the system.
The most common problem with poor performance is refrigerant charge. Too little or too much refrigerant can significantly degrade performance. Contrary to popular belief, more is not better in this case. Additionally, the practice of "topping off" a system with refrigerant is dicey at best, especially if you have a leak in the system. Checking the site glass for bubbles does not work for R134a refrigerant systems. Achieving the optimum level of refrigerant charge can be tricky, but following these simple steps can make things easier. It is best to use a refrigerant charging station since it is capable of automatic refrigerant recovery, recycle, evacuation and recharging. Again, refer to the specific system ICA or maintenance manual and local shop servicing protocol for additional information regarding the safe handling and use of refrigerant and certification requirements.
• Check the system for leaks using an electronic leak detector. Since refrigerant is heavier than air, leaks are most likely to be detected on the underside of hoses and fittings. All leaks must be repaired before servicing the system.
• Charge the system with the specified amount of refrigerant using the ICA or maintenance manual as a guide.
• Test-run the system after servicing to confirm the system is working properly.
Let's turn to refrigerant oil for our next discussion. During normal operation, air conditioning oil is suspended in the refrigerant and lubricates the moving parts and seals of the system. When the system is turned off and at rest, the oil returns to liquid form and is evenly distributed across the system. Refer to the ICA or maintenance manual to ensure the correct oil type and viscosity is placed in the system being serviced. The best way to know how much oil is in the system is to keep track of any oil that is added or removed. For example, when reclaiming refrigerant, be sure to note any oil that is removed from the system, and replace the lost oil before or during re-servicing. Keeping a "running tally" of the oil in the system will ensure you have the optimal charge at all times. The air conditioner ICA or service manual lists the proper refrigerant oil charge for the system.
What are the indications when something has gone wrong with the oil charge? An air conditioner with too much oil may not suspend all of the liquid oil in the refrigerant and can result in compressor "slugging." This is normally indicated by compressor lockup and broken air conditioning drive belts. Too little oil will not allow the refrigerant oil to properly lubricate the compressor and expansion valves. This results in seized compressors and also leads to drive belt breakage. If you suspect your system is suffering from either condition, a system purge or flushing is usually required to bring the air conditioner back into service. This process, though labor intensive, will remove all oil and contaminants from the system and allow you to add the proper refrigerant and oil charge to your air conditioner. Keep in mind that oil should only be added to the discharge side of the compressor.
Remember the owner/operator who complained because his air conditioner wasn't blowing ice cubes? Well, now that you've educated him on how effective cooling works, he may have a legitimate complaint if he comes back and says his system is blowing hot air instead. Finding out why the system is not working is not rocket science but it does require some basic knowledge and troubleshooting techniques.
Assuming that the evaporator and condenser blowers are working fine, here are some basic steps to follow in determining the problem:
• Check that the system has the proper level of refrigerant charge in the system
• Check for refrigerant leaks in the tubes and hoses and the major components using an electronic leak detector (sniffer)
• Check for compressor operation
• Connect a manifold gauge set to aid in diagnostics.
Basically, the most common problem is incorrect refrigerant charge. Here are some other common causes:
• Incorrect refrigerant/oil charge
• Leaks in the system (most common source is the compressor seal)
• Moisture, air and/or contaminates in the system
• Faulty components (clogged expansion valves, blowers inop, leaky tubes, hoses, compressor or heat exchangers)
• Electrical problems (relays, switches, wiring, or simply turning the temp control knob to full cold; don't laugh, it happens.)
Troubleshooting air conditioning can be frustrating if not approached logically. Start with the most common causes (refrigerant charge/leaks) and work your way down the list. Finally, if all else fails, contact the manufacturer's customer support group for additional advice.
The keys to maintaining a customer's air conditioning is knowledge of the system, appropriate tools and supplies (servicing cart, electronic leak detector, refrigerant, and oil), and a little bit of luck. Seriously, luck has nothing to do with it. Some mechanics tend to shy away from fixing air conditioning problems. Hopefully this article has taken some of the mystery out of maintaining, servicing, and troubleshooting the more common problems associated with helicopter air conditioning systems.

Announcement of award: 21 May 2018
The NMI Prize is an annual award that acknowledges and celebrates outstanding achievement in measurement research and/or excellence in practical measurements by a young individual working in academia, research or industry in Australia.
This prize is reserved specifically for nominations by young Australians, as a means of promoting measurement science and fostering it's application and techniques in innovative fields.
Measurement is both a technique and a process that underpins much of life as we know it but is often taken for granted. As an enabling technology, measurement provides the foundation for progress and advancement of human society.
With the increasing advance of science and technology, Lord Kelvin's words are even more pertinent today than when they were first espoused: 'When you can measure what you are speaking about and express it in numbers, you know something about it; but when you cannot measure it, when you cannot express it in numbers, your knowledge is of a meagre and unsatisfactory kind: it may be the beginning of knowledge but you have scarcely in your thoughts, advanced to the stage of science.'
However, the relevance of measurement is broader than direct applications in science and technology; it underpins decisions in economics and politics and often is the foundation for innovation in many other areas.
NMI believes that it is only by recognising and celebrating achievements in measurement that this important infra-technology will be adequately acknowledged.
Eligible applicants are individuals up to 35 years of age who have made a highly significant contribution to the science of measurement either as an individual or as a member of a group.
Excellence in measurement may include but is not limited to:
A completed Nomination Form together with supporting documentation must be submitted by 5.00 p.m. AEST of the closing date for entries. The preferred mode of submission is via email. Please ensure that the information provided in the Nomination Form is accurate, up-to-date and complete as no changes will be entertained once the form has been submitted.
Supporting documentation shall consist of:
If further clarification of the above information is needed, please email the communications team.

LeBron James' Mask Now Has Its Own T-ShirtFebruary 28, 2014
The Miami Heat Store
Miami Heat superstar LeBron James generated a ton of buzz after wearing a black mask during the team's game against the New York Knicks Thursday night. In fact, the mask made so much noise that there is now a t-shirt for it.
While he may have looked like Zorro, the mask didn't keep LeBron from racking up 31 points, four assists and four rebounds while shooting 13-of-19 from the field in the 108-82 win.
While LeBron may be switching to a clear mask for his game on Saturday, the black mask will certainly be remembered for a while (h/t Bleacher Report's Ethan J. Skolnick).
