Snow storm slams New Mexico
Saturday snow makes for difficult driving conditions
Snow storm slams New Mexico
Saturday snow makes for difficult driving conditions
A snow storm slammed the Albuquerque metro area late Saturday night, causing slick roads and treacherous driving conditions.
Westbound lanes of Interstate 40 were slowed Saturday night after a truck jackknifed. Bernalillo County deputies said they were spread thin because of numerous crashes across the metro area.
Because temperatures were above freezing during the storm, the snow turned to slush quickly.
Some areas of northern New Mexico could pick up some significant snow overnight. The storm is expected to leave the state by Sunday afternoon.
If you can safely do so, email your snow photos and videos to firstname.lastname@example.com or tap the u local button on the KOAT app. You could see your photo on TV!

You are currently browsing the tag archive for the 'Ecology' tag.
Hey everyone, my amazing new roommate works at an art gallery in the city's hottest art district, the Lower East Side. The famous gallerist who runs the place has embarked on an artistic quest…to Tanzania, but she has generously allowed me to use the space for an evening. I hope you will accept my invitation (above) to a show of my flounder artworks which explore the big-fish-eats-little-fish dialectic of history against a backdrop of larger biological themes.
Because of time constraints, the opening IS the show–we are like a beautiful exotic mushroom which pops-up for a single glorious night–but during that one night there will be glowing multi-media delights to satisfy all aesthetic longings! Since you read this blog, I know you have the most refined and intelligent tastes: I hope you can join me then and there.
One of my favorite living artists is not interested in the fatuous self-absorption and navel gazing which characterizes most contemporary artwork. Instead of falling in love with himself, Ray Troll fell in love with aquatic animals—and his art is a pun-filled paean to the astonishing diversity and complexity of life in Earth's rivers, lakes, and oceans both in this epoch and in past geological ages. Although Troll's vibrant biology themed art is humorous and fantastic, it also resonates at a deeper level. Themes of ecological devastation and the broad exploitation of the oceans are unflinchingly explored, as is the true nature of humankind. Troll (correctly) regards people as a sort of terrestrial fish descendant who still have the same aggressive territoriality, unending hunger, and crude drives that propelled our distant piscine forbears. This sounds deterministic and grim until one comprehends the high esteem which Troll holds for fish of all sorts. After looking at the beauty, grace, and power of his fish art, one feels honored to be included in the larger family (along with all the mammals, birds, reptiles, and amphibians which trace their roots back to fish-like tetrapod ancestors).
Troll is a favorite artist because he endeavors to understand paleontology, ecology, and biology and synthesize these extraordinary disciplines with broader human experience. The result is a whimsical and surreal mixture of creatures and concepts from different times and places rubbing elbows as though Hieronymous Bosch were having a happy daydream. Troll is a "popular" artist in that he makes a living by selling books, tee-shirts, and posters rather than swindling billionaire bankers into multi-million dollar single purchases, so you should check out his website. In keeping with the themes of Ferrebeekeeper, I have added a small gallery of his mollusk and catfish themed artwork (although such creatures are only featured in some of his paintings and drawings). Unfortunately the online sample images are rather small. If you want to see full resolution images you will have to buy his books and artwork (which is a worthwhile thing to do).
The Encante is a paradisiacal underwater realm where shapeshifting river dolphins lure humans. The aquatic creatures are able to be themselves in this realm of magic and dance. Not only does Troll's work feature the beauty of the Amazon and the otherworldly magical river dolphins, there are also a host of amazing catfish, including several armored catfish, and a giant bottomfeeder which has apparently developed an unfortunate taste for human flesh.
Here are a handful of Troll's pun-themed tee-shirt drawings involving amazing cephalopods. I like to imagine the populist octopus in battle with the fearsome vampire squid which is so emblematic of Goldman Sachs.
Finally, here is a naturalistic portrayal of how the ancient ammonites most likely came together to spawn on moonlit nights of the Paleozoic (such behavior is characteristic of the squids and cuttlefish alive today). The long-extinct cephalopods are portrayed with life and personality as though their quest to exist has immediate relevance to us today. Indeed–that might is Troll's overarching artistic and philosophical point: life is a vividly complex web of relationships which knit together in the past, present, and the future.
According to the New York Daily News, nobody has seen a wild rabbit in Central Park since 2006 (way to horde a story for Easter, Daily News). The indigenous eastern cottontail, Sylvilagus floridanus, which once flourished in Central Park, seems to have been completely eradicated from Manhattan. One ecologist fairly convincingly blamed the ubiquitous raccoon for spreading parasites (I am inclined to agree after seeing the havoc those masked bandits can wreak upon a garden or anything else) but nobody truly knows the cause for the bunnies' vanishing act: other potential culprits include feral cats, eagles (!), coyotes, and disease.
The big story of our time—and, indeed the big story since the Hadean era, when life apparently emerged from the slime—is the peculiar and complicated relationships within ecosystems. I would like to make this a major theme of subsequent posts (after all it is the underlying tale of all living things), but right now I'm just sad about the rabbits. Hopefully Prospect Park and Greenwood cemetery still have bunnies. I'm pretty sure I've seen them there more recently then 2006, but I'm going to have to keep my eyes peeled and ask my Brooklyn neighbors to do the same.

The location may have changed, but this fall Chris Hatcher will be right back where he has spent the previous 10 seasons — running a college football program.
Hatcher, a Macon native and former Mount de Sales Academy standout, was hired Monday by Murray State University in Murray, Ky. Hatcher replaces Matt Griffin, who was fired Nov. 16 after a 3-8 season. The other finalists for the job were Wisconsin recruiting coordinator Randall McCray and East Carolina offensive coordinator Steve Shankweiler.
Hatcher was fired by Georgia Southern on Nov. 21, the same day the Eagles finished a 5-6 season with a win over The Citadel. He has a 94-27 record in 10 seasons as a head coach.
"I am extremely excited about the opportunity to be the head coach at Murray State, and I'm looking forward to the opportunity to get the Racers back on top of the Ohio Valley Conference," Hatcher said in a news release from the school. "In the coming weeks, I will assemble an excellent staff, we will evaluate the current players on the team, and we will get out and recruit the best student-athletes possible to help us win. We will be an exciting football team to watch, and you can look for our boys to play hard every time they step onto the field."
The Racers' program marks the third stop in Hatcher's head coaching career.
He started his head coaching career at Valdosta State, his alma mater, in 2000. Hatcher went 76-12 during his time with the Blazers, including winning the NCAA Division II national championship in 2004. Valdosta State reached the playoffs in six of his seven seasons at the helm and had undefeated regular seasons in 2001 and 2002.
Hatcher left the Blazers in 2007 to take over a struggling Georgia Southern program. At the time, he was the Eagles' third head coach in three seasons, and Hatcher went 7-4 his first season in Statesboro.
In 2008, the Eagles went 6-5, but they dropped to 5-6 in 2009, Hatcher's first losing season as a head coach, and he was fired after the Eagles won their regular-season finale 13-6.
The Racers have a solid tradition but have fallen on tough times lately. They are 13-43 in the past five seasons.
"He is an exceptional coach, having worked with some of the most respected and talented coaches in all of college football," Murray State athletics director Allen Ward said in the release. "Everyone I talked to about Chris echoed the very same sentiments about his extraordinary abilities to connect with and lead young men."
Murray State, which is in Kentucky, is a member of the Ohio Valley Conference, an NCAA Division I conference whose football teams compete in the Football Championship Subdivision. Georgia Southern also competes in the FCS.
The program has been a proving ground for big-name head coaches. Mike Gottfried coached there from 1978 to 1980 before coaching at Cincinnati, Kansas and Pittsburgh. Current Virginia Tech head coach Frank Beamer coached the Racers from 1981 to 1986, and current Mississippi head coach Houston Nutt coached there from 1993 to 1996.
Current Maryland head coach Ralph Friedgen and current llinois head coach Ron Zook also served as assistant coaches for the Racers.
"There's a lot of tradition at this program," Hatcher said during Monday's news conference. "I'm following in the footsteps of some great coaches, some great names in college football who have had the privilege to be a Racer. I'm very excited and I'm very proud to be able to follow those coaches."
Hatcher, who is the 17th head coach in the program's history, received a four-year contract.
"I am really excited to have Coach Hatcher leading the Racer football program, especially when I think about the impact he is going to make on the young men in our program," Ward said in the release. "He is a proven winner and exceptional leader. He will immediately capture respect and credibility with our team."

Former Brazos County Historical Commission member Rosemary Boykin died on Sunday, June 15, 2008, in College Station, Texas. As a member of the BCHC, Rosemary, with the help of her husband, Cal, conducted the first survey of all historic markers in Brazos County. She was also responsible for the research and writing that led to the approval of the Steele's Store historic marker. Even after she left the BCHC, she continued to contribute to local preservation efforts and was a cherished member of our community.
In honor of Historic Preservation Month (as designated by the National Trust for Historic Preservation and the Texas Historical Commission), the Brazos County Historical Commission has developed a bookmark to help raise awareness of the commission, its mission, and its new website. View the bookmark here, or stop by a nearby library, bookstore, or museum to get your own.
If you've ever wanted to learn about the rich history of the Brazos Valley, you now have another great resource in this Brazos County Historical Commission website. Primarily developed to educate the public about historic resources in Brazos County, as well as encourage local historic preservation and tourism, we have included several useful research tools. These include an interactive map of area historic markers and original research documents ("narratives") submitted to the State of Texas as part of the application to obtain these markers. Until now, these narratives have been virtually unavailable to the public.
Welcome to the Brazos County Historical Commission website, a place to learn about the commission, research historic markers, and learn how to get involved with the commission in Brazos County, Texas.

Hello Guys, Hope all of you doing well. This is my journey of quitting the job and entering into the blogging world which I think changed my life up to some extent and will be doing in upcoming years.
About Me:
I am Rahul Bhatia from Tehsil Safidon, District Jind, Haryana. While I am in my 10th, I am the type of Guy who wants to join Air Force and fulfill my dreams of serving the country with flying in a supersonic Jet.
After I complete my 12th class and joined SD Institute of Tech & Mgmt, Israna, Panipat in Electronic and Comm Engineering, I used the computer first-time in my life and that too my sister's one.
Entering into self-employment is due to the bad monetary conditions of my family. My father has the spinal problem due to which he can't do the work daily and have to rest for about months or sometimes 6 months which caused us some money problems.
Family Problems:
When I am in 10th class due to money problems in the family, I need some money to fulfill my little needs. So I decided to do something to earn some cash.
My First Job – Distributing Newspapers:
One of my classmates is distributing newspapers in our city and I approached him and asked that Can he join me there.
He takes me to the colony which is behind our colony from which distributing newspapers work was being done. As we are the old family in our city so most of the people know us.
After I joined the newspaper distributing work and that too in winter season. They used to pay 300 Rupees for distributing 100 newspapers in City and 500 for nearby villages.
After doing the work for some 7 days, I left that Job because that is not fulfilling my money problems.
This was my first job which definitely I considered for the not the type of people I am.
2nd Job -Distributing Bills:
My 2nd Job was distributing postpaid mobile bills of Airtel, Voda etc. This work look easy to me as it has no fixed timing. They are paying 3 Rs. for One bill reached to the destination and that too by taking the sign of the recipient.
So I distribute 100 bills in a week and earning 300 per week which was enough for me at that time in 2005.
3rd Job: Giving Tuition:
After I completed my 10th class and joined SD School in Panipat for 12th Class in Non-Medical, I came to know about making only email id.
In this time, I had left distributing bills and started giving tuitions to 10th class students at my home. That was the increment in my earning and as I making 3k-4k per month from 1k per month.
In B-Tech:
After I entered in B-tech in ECE branch in SDITM, Panipat till the first year I know nothing about computer. At this time I am still giving tuitions but this time to 12th students teaching Chemistry which is my favorite subject. I used to earn 5k this time.
In the 2nd year of B.Tech, I got Compaq Laptop which my parents have given to my Sister. As She graduated in BCA when I am in my 2nd year. So I got that old laptop and my Sister bought a new one for her.
When I got the laptop and I started taking full benefit of it and learning something new every day.
In June 2011, I came to know about website designing and at that Making website for me like ( in Hindi called – Hawooa).
So I decided to learn Website designing myself as I have a habit of learning thing myself without taking help of others unless I have not known anything in Advanced.
So I take a pledge to myself that I will learn Website Designing myself in 30 Days. Every day I came from college and give 2 hours to learn Website Designing.
At that, I was using W3schools to learn HTML and PHP.
After the final day means the 30th day of my pledge, I made my own website in HTML and Some PHP tweaks and Feel like achieved something big.
Although the website is just not formatted with CSS and looks no good. I need some more capability in this so I decided to save others website in computer and editing them with Dreamweaver.
Testing, Testing, and Testing made me learn something good.
"As we all know, knowledge is money."
So I decided to use my half ability to design a website to earn some money.
That was in Sept 2011 when I started my own company named Matrix Webtex. You can search on the internet although domain not active now.
Now the question was How to find clients? What type of companies or people should I approach?
I came to know about Justdial who has a large database of India SME's and some local businesses in every sector.
Now the Questions was How to approach or pitch them?
I used Way2Sms for sending messages by using one of my numbers. As all of us received daily so many messages which are called VAS services or Bulk SMS Services.
As I have no budget to spend on Bulk SMS, so I used Way2SMS.
I find the contact of easy targets which have no websites and can make one if convinced a little bit.
One thing was that What content to be used in Way2SMS in that 140 characters short message. I found some attractive messages that come on our mobiles and made one for myself from them.
I started targeting Educations Institute which provides Distance Learning Courses. I messaged them through Way2Sms and you will not believe that as I can't believe, I received 7 contracts in my first week after sending messages.
That means I made a business of approx 50k in the first week.
This was the time when I entered into blogging world in Dec 2011.
Read part 2 of this in next post.

As teachers, scholars, participants in shared governance, and the purveyors of institutional culture and history, faculty are essential to the success of academic institutions. For over ten years the Collaborative on Academic Careers in Higher Education (COACHE) at the Harvard Graduate School of Education has surveyed faculty members at more than 250 colleges and universities to understand the themes associated with faculty satisfaction.
In 2016, the University of Pittsburgh partnered with COACHE to administer COACHE's Faculty Job Satisfaction Survey, and almost half of Pitt's non-clinical, full-time tenured, tenure stream, and non-tenure stream faculty members completed the online survey in the spring. Pitt's 45 percent response rate approached the overall 47 percent response rate for faculty from all 88 institutions that participated.
One of the advantages of participating in the COACHE survey is the ability to compare Pitt faculty with faculty at peer institutions. Specifically, we can compare Pitt faculty responses to the responses of faculty at the 88 other universities that participated in the COACHE survey over the past three years and to a group of five public universities from the Association of American Universities.
The results are in, and they offer great insights into what Pitt faculty think about working here! Laurie Kirsch, vice provost for faculty affairs, development, and diversity, is working with representatives from COACHE and the University community to disseminate the findings and provide guidance on how to use the results to better inform our work and carry out our mission as a university.

From the day he was born, my iToddler enjoyed watching Baby Einstein DVDs about colours and shapes, enjoyed the 'Talking Tom' cat Android app repeating his parents' voices back in a high-pitched manner, and now loves dancing along to Nursery Rhymes streaming on YouTube. Is he being raised in a 'digital culture'? Without a doubt.
The most interesting issue raised for me by the EDC MOOC was that of utopia versus dystopia: Francis Fukuyama's ideology, that human nature and human ways of being are under threat by scientific and technological advances, is one that I have enjoyed debating via Twitter over recent weeks.
Fukuyama is best known as the author of The End of History and the Last Man (1992), in which he argued that the progression of human history as a struggle between ideologies is largely at an end, with the world settling on liberal democracy after the end of the Cold War and the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989. Fukuyama predicted the eventual global triumph of political and economic liberalism, warning that our human ways of being are threatened by technology as it undermines the basis of our commitment to humanist ideas which underlie many educational philosophies and approaches to practice, such as equality, freedom and autonomy.
Is the ever-embeddedness of technology in our lives really such a bad thing? Is it as 'dangerous' as Fukuyama fears? I don't believe that technology undermines who we are, but in fact enhances us and allows us to explain and express ourselves in ways never before possible, connecting us to others and making our everyday lives.
I do not yet know how my son's iChildhood will turn out. No doubt the iPads and laptops at his future nursery will equip him with IT skills that people of my generation fought to learn in the first years of Secondary school. But these IT skills will, in my opinion, prepare him for a future in an ever-evolving digital world, where his future job will no doubt involve some- if not all- digital input.
Isn't achieving 'equality, freedom and autonomy' easier with these skills and devices? I would dispute Fukuyama's dystopian ideas with those of a utopian, united future where technology provides access to information, enabling us, and re-asserting who we are- being human is using technology. If we are fortunate to live in a society where such digital delights are available, should we not share them and introduce them to our young? Perhaps many technologies now do go 'unnoticed' in our everyday lives, but wouldn't you let your toddler play on your iPhone if it made them laugh…?
Personally, I see nothing but positive changes ahead in Education as we continue to enhance our teaching and learning with digital devices, and I very much look forward to watching my toddler grow up in our digital utopian world.

Accurate statistical research on infidelity is difficult to come by. "The best efforts of research are up against the fact that cheaters have no reason to be honest about secrets that could destroy their lives," according to Huffington Post contributor Peggy Drexler." It is not surprising those who tend to cheat are also willing to lie about their behavior, but the truth remains that infidelity-- whether real or suspected -- causes multiple problems and emotional damage. It remains to be seen if a relationship can survive the fallout.
Loss of Trust
Cheating on your girlfriend will mean that she no longer trusts you to take out the garbage, let alone protect her emotional or physical security. "This painful rupture of trust in many cases proves too much to get past," states Dr. Stephen Diamond, Ph. D. says in Psychology Today. She will wonder where you are during every second of the day, and she may even demand to know where you are.
Loss of Relationship
There is a real possibility you could lose her all together. In an eHarmony poll of 720,000 members, women ranked cheating as their number four "can't stand," as cited in the New York Times article, "What Are Your Relationship Deal Breakers?" It is almost a guarantee that her friends and family would advise her to leave you. Some women view cheating as a one-time deal breaker, and that there is no second chance. You would be wise to assume this would be her reaction and decide if losing her is worth the fling.
Loss of Respect
You can pretty much say goodbye to whatever level of respect you enjoyed prior to cheating. People in every part of your life, from close to acquaintance, could judge you and lose respect for you, to varying degrees. This is probably not surprising. What could come as a shock is how much respect you could lose for yourself. Shame is a powerful thing and repairing the damage done to your self-worth could take a good long time.
Loss of Security
Security in the relationship will be shattered, not just for her, but for you as well. "It is common for both spouses to experience depression (including suicidal thoughts), anxiety, and/or a profound sense of loss following the initial disclosure," states the America Association for Marriage and Family Therapy. Depression is also a common consequence to infidelity leading to emotional insecurity and is highly likely to plague you both. This is tough to overcome and may need professional help to see you through it.

Solutions Were Sought With Clean Vallisaari Innovation Competition
HELSINKI, FINLAND--(Marketwired - September 07, 2016) - Two previously closed islands off the Helsinki city center shoreline opened to the public in May 2016, vacated from earlier use by the Finnish Defense Forces. Located 2.5 miles -- 15 minutes by waterbus -- from Helsinki Market Square in the South Harbor, the twin fortress islands of Vallisaari and Kuninkaansaari provide high potential for recreation and tourism, featuring unique nature and deep layers of Finnish cultural history.
The islands' governing body, Finnish wildlife administration Metsähallitus, and the City of Helsinki seek to develop the largely undeveloped islands for eco-tourism using Smart & Clean technologies and solutions. Together they announced an innovation competition entitled Clean Vallisaari in March 2016, looking for ideas to support the development of the islands and to contribute new insights to the story of the islands.
The City of Helsinki also looked to use the competition as a reference case in its strategic Smart & Clean development plan.
The competitors were asked to provide solutions for water, waste and energy management in ways that respect the nature and cultural values of the islands, add to the appeal of the islands, and enable a minimum environmental footprint of the proposed development, while creating jobs and business opportunities. The organizers looked for proposals from multidisciplinary teams addressing the evaluation criteria "Unique island experience" and "Sustainable technologies and solutions."
The competition received 12 entries, and the jury announced its decision on September 1, 2016. According to the jury, the proposals included many creative and applicable solutions. The jury named two winners -- Precious Vallisaari and Virgin Island -- and awarded each with a 12,500-euro prize.
The jury cites Precious Vallisaari for its human-centric approach, which incorporates greenhouses and local food production. Development is based on circular economy (an economy that produces no waste and pollution). The proposal also incorporates the learning experience.
Virgin Island, according to the jury, emphasizes self-sustained systems and presents a convincing basis for creating a showcase for clean technologies. The proposal well incorporates the user experience.
Chairman of the jury, former U.S. Ambassador to Finland (2009-2015) Bruce Oreck comments, "It's really unique that the development is done in complete harmony with nature." Ambassador Oreck continues to live and work in Finland.
The Vallisaari and Kuninkaansaari islands are nature reserves that support a wide variety of plant and animal species. They feature fortification structures built during the Swedish rule (-1809) and Russian rule (1809-1917) of Finland. Vallisaari was used to support the Suomenlinna sea fortress, which is today a UNESCO World Heritage site.

When I listen for God's whispers, I am always amazed and intrigued by the way He speaks. Some would think it is before, during, or after your prayer. Yet, I have experienced His voice, more by the creation location, instead of my doing anything. And so, that is how this came to me, so differently it was somewhat shocking and yet amusing.
I was watching one of my favorite Christmas movies, "White Christmas" in the mountains. When Bing Crosby started singing a special song. The words mention about being weary to fall asleep. You have heard that people count sheep sometimes to finally nod off. Yet, in this song, it goes on to say, count your blessings instead of sheep. This started the whole idea of our Lord as our Shepherd and how the sheep were shorn in His time on earth. The shearing seemed important because He has to shear us of our old life when we become new in Him. His rod and His staff are constantly taking care of us.
Investigating the shearing process by Jewish Law is very specific and laborious. I will not be overly explicit because you have the capability of looking up, The Laws of the Shabbat, which covers every part of this importance. The part I did find so in tune to our being His sheep, is the conciseness of His care, time, and love required to take this grueling procedure to the finish.
The many activities required for shearing include some of the following. Cleaning and purifying the wool before it ever is clipped off. My spirit says this is first when Jesus' blood is used to purify us from sin, we know upon our salvation, His forgiveness is only required once for all of our sins, but He wants us to always acknowledge our sins with Him. This is a reminder to remember how Jesus laid down His life for us and why. Before other times of next season's shearing, we do get dirty, so enters the Shabbot. Shabbot is the Sabbath, which is the only Jewish holiday that occurs every week. It seems that this would be time for us to be cleansed again, in the mercy of His blessings giving thanks. On the Sabbath in Hebrew prayers, they are called blessings.
The next is caring of the developing fruit from the fleece. The constant cleaning again for preparation of the actual weaving process, spinning, meshing, netting, and knotting until the wool is made into something usable. This reminds me of 2 Timothy 3:16-17; "All scripture is God breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work." God is preparing us to be His useful servants.
Here is the last sequence presented by Hebrew Law. This last of the procedure is the type of labor and finishing for the fabrics created. Which area will it be used in? What type of use is needed in the use of this beautiful fabric? In other words, what will its purpose be?
If we recall Jesus telling us that He is the vine and we are His branches. (John 15:1-8) it is synonymous to the fact there is pruning and constant spiritual remedies to keep His sheep or branches available to His Purpose. The purpose of the fleece is for weaving a fabric, the purpose of the branches is to bear the grapes, all of these fruits are used to feed others. Both of these equate to His Blessings for all mankind towards eternal life with Jesus.
We need to count our blessings and give thanks while He counts His sheep. We are not meant to count the numbers, we are shorn clean for His Plan in us. In our oneness together with Him, His voice will be heard.
John 10:16
16 I have other sheep that are not of this sheep pen. I must bring them also. They too will listen to my voice, and there shall be one flock and one shepherd. 1
John 10:1-18 gives the entirety of the thoughts in this lesson. The last four verses however, are listing the command that Jesus received from His Father, our Father in Heaven.
John 110:14-18
14 "I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me— 15 just as the Father knows me and I know the Father—and I lay down my life for the sheep. sheep pen. I must bring them also. They too will listen to my voice16 I have other sheep that are not of this, and there shall be one flock and one shepherd. 17 The reason my Father loves me is that I lay down my life—only to take it up again. 18 No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again. This command I received from my Father."

The Conference on College Composition and Communication (CCCC) supports and promotes the teaching and study of college composition and communication. CCCC is one of four conferences of the National Council of Teachers of English, which promotes access, power, agency, and affiliation for all invested in literacy, pre-K through graduate school.1
CCCC is governed by its Constitution and Bylaws. It is through the groups and roles specified in these documents that the work of the organization takes place. Leadership of the organization is charged to the CCCC Executive Committee (EC). The EC consists of 25 voting members (who are themselves elected by CCCC members) and five ex officio members who sit on the EC by virtue of their offices. These include, for instance, the editor of College Composition and Communication, CCCC's journal, and the chair of the Two-Year College English Association (an NCTE association and close ally of CCCC). These ex officio members provide necessary information about the operations of the organization to the larger leadership body.
The CCCC EC is led by six officers (included in the count above): five elected and one who sits on the Officers' Committee by virtue of their office. These officers include the Chair, Associate Chair, Assistant Chair, Past Chair, Secretary, and the Executive Secretary-Treasurer (non-elected), who form an Officers' Committee as specified by the Constitution. Along with the EC, the officers have responsibility for policymaking, fiduciary matters, and organizational decision-making.
Also charged with undertaking projects is a series of Special Committees. These are appointed by the EC. They have a set of discrete tasks around a common interest defined by the Executive Committee to achieve purposes associated with the organization (for example, updating or revising a position statement). Organizationally, the other entities included in the structure of CCCC are membership-driven entities such as Special Interest Groups and Standing Groups, which emerge from the body of the organization. These groups are defined on this webpage and can request formal status within the organization in order to pursue goals, projects, or tasks around an area of common interest.
CommitteesArticle IV of the CCCC Constitution names four kinds of committees within CCCC: the Executive Committee, Nominating Committee, Officers' Committee, and Special Committees. The first three committees (Executive, Nominating, and Officers') consist of elected and ex-officio members, so are necessarily limited in membership. The fourth, Special Committees, covers a range of topics and has more open membership.
Task ForcesTask forces are convened, charged, and appointed by the CCCC Executive Committee with the Officers' Committee taking responsibility for charging the group. A Task Force tends to have a short activity span (typically no more than one year) around a very focused goal or outcome. Member Groups: Special Interest Groups and Standing GroupsCommittee membership is relatively limited because committees have specific and focused charges that are defined by the Executive Committee via the Chair. CCCC members who seek to define more ongoing work that is driven by member interests can participate in Member Groups of two types: Special Interest Groups (SIGs) or Standing Groups (SGs). Currently, the more than fifty Special Interest Groups (SIGs) meet at the CCCC Annual Convention in the spring. They are relatively informal and provide an opportunity for people with common professional interests to meet and talk. Longstanding SIGs can apply to become a Standing Group, resulting in a more formal relationship with CCCC. While SIGs are not accountable to the organization with specific deliverables, Standing Groups are required to submit an annual report of activities and membership.Who Does What in the Groups?
How do I get involved?
1The other three conferences are the Conference on English Education (CEE), Conference on English Leadership (CEL), and the Whole Language Umbrella. NCTE also has affiliates (NCTE regional affiliates and TYCA regional affiliates) and assemblies.

Workshop Offerings
Here is a sampling of some of Cucuyo's past workshops.
Spanish on Stage | Español en escena
In this workshop, students form their own theater company and stage a production—all in Spanish! The artistic, cultural and language exploration takes place on many different levels. Students work closely with their Dominican peers on pronunciation as they master a script that investigates Dominican culture under the guidance of the director. Along the way, students also learn theater basics including set and costume design; public speaking; and blocking and movement. At the end of the workshop, students will present their finished play for the community at the final exhibition. Led by Orlando Muñoz.
English for All! | ¡Inglés para todos!
Two separate workshops for teenagers and adults make learning English fun! Each class begins with a game and includes activities that help students build on the English they already know and start speaking English confidently. Collaborative idiom work with the neighboring Spanish Now workshop deepens practical knowledge. Past activities have included creating a Facebook profile and describing our families using a family tree. Students finish the workshop by creating a final project to present at the end-of-program exhibition. Led by Lauren Stephenson.
Spanish Now | Español ya
Why is Dominican Spanish rife with tú's? What does it mean when a Dominican eats a flag? How do I get my homestay sister to pass me the special rice from the bottom of the pot? These and other Dominican peculiarities will be the arroz and habichuela of Cucuyo's Spanish Now workshop. While we will further our Spanish fundamentals, most of the class will be tailored towards the immediacy of your in-country experience—meaning PRACTICAL Spanish for the here and now. Music, literature, immersion and exchanges with our English class counterparts are just a few of the vehicles in which we'll take this wild Spanish ride together. Led by Laura Vaughn Holcomb.
B-Ball! | ¡Básquet!
Boys and girls ages eight and up will focus on developing strong skills, teamwork, enjoying fun competition and good sportsmanship. Through daily practice, the youth will work on their offensive and defense skills, while gaining a deeper understanding of the game. A variety of inclusive games and drills will be used in order to assure that everyone is having fun. Older players will also learn to run offensive plays and defensive strategies. The workshop will culminate in a final tournament. Throughout, the focus will always be on positive teamwork and fun. Led by Fred Raphael.

I learned to play Phase 10. It is a card game, with ten different stages. It is really long, but really fun if you are on a long ferry ride, like I was. You do need at least 3 players for it to be fun. I loved it.

I'm in love the all things vintage, so I decided to look up a game from the 50s. It's called "Spill and Spell." Basically, you have dice with letters on them instead of numbers. You put them in a cup, shake it around, and then "Spill" them out and try to "Spell" words with the letters you came up with. The longer the…[Read more]
That's interesting. And both players take turns with their letter cups until they run out of time, or do you just keep going until you can't fit any more letters in?
I'm pretty sure its until they run out of time.
Looked like it – but then again, it can be anything these days – try a newer game called Bananagrams for more crossword-type fun.
Okay, thanks! I'll look it up.

I forgot what it was called, but at camp, one of my new friends taught me a new game. It was kind of like rummykub but with playing cards. You have to make either a run of at least 3 cards in numerical order, or put down 3 matching cards by number! It was tons of fun and I won on my first try!

Basically, the story is that Link washes up on the shores of…[Read more]
How are you liking it? It sometimes seems like the best Zelda games are the ones that stay true to the "explore things, find stuff, use it" model.
It's definitely addicting, that's for sure! It's a little frustrating as most older games are, but I always feel satisfied when I figure something out on my own.
"A Little Frustrating" as in, "We expect you to remember where Widget A was when Dwarf B talked about it on your own" instead of having an automap point the way?
A bit like that, yeah. Mostly along the lines of trying to figure out what to do without any tips on what to try to defeat a villain/solve a puzzle
For someone who's used to all the help, it can be tough having to just remember things. That, and what might be an obvious puzzle to those of us with experience on our side (heh) might be new to someone who has used modern stuff most of the time.

I learned to play a game called "Don't say it." It is really childish sometimes but it can get really fun. You have to get your teamates to guess a word, like banana for example, but you are forbidden to say a few words like monkey, food, or yellow. So you have to use different describing words, but your team has to guess it…[Read more]
Sounds like that game was released commercially as "Taboo"
(Funny enough, I suspect the concept of that game and Groucho Marx's "Secret Word" stuff from You Bet Your Life, which is older than both of us combined, are not all that far apart…)

I played a game called 7's. The dealer gives everyone seven cards and then the first person with a 7 starts off. If no one has one, the person to the dealers left draws until they reach one. After that you go off the suits of the seven and build up the line from 7 to ace and 7 to king. until someone is out of cards.

I have to start this post off with a bit of a confession. I wasn't always the wine loving creature the world has come to know and love, There was a dark time in my life that dare I say it…I didn't like wine! I know I was a lost soul. Thankfully, I was brought to my senses. I still think I owe my wife an immeasurable amount of gratitude for bringing me around to the light.
The problem was I didn't have a good baseline for what wine should be, at the time, in my head I thought "wine comes from grapes, shouldn't wine taste like grape juice?"…Again, I know, I'm not proud of this time in my life. So, cut to a few years later of my wife constantly trying to get me to try wine, and my almost constant resistance (have you ever asked a child to eat vegetables? It was sort of like that, but with more tears and whining in my case). I think she actually may have given up on me at this point. One day, while shopping in our local grocery story, she decided to buy a bottle of wine for herself, it was a Norton Malbec for $9.99. I'm going to be a little over-dramatic and say that bottle changed my life.
For those of you that are interested in learning
a little more about Norton I've included a link to their website. I am in no way affiliated with them, but I do hold a dear spot for them in my wine loving soul.
I hope you don't judge me for my early misgivings about wine, I have righted my path and continue to barrel down it one glass at a time.

new iPad WIP (Multi iPad!)
This is the same test telePort Scene as the last couple of Soundcloud posts, but this time it is to give a new WIP view of the iPad App! Quite shaky and unprepared but I had an extra iPad to complete and test multi-iPad functionality only for one weekend, and found it deserved a little video!


text: I just got an EZFlash V 3in1 to compliment my R4DS so I could load GBA roms. I've got GBA ExpLoader working just fine, but I can't find anyway to customize it. When I load a ROM, the GBA game has a frame around it with a windows-like toolbar at the top. It looks like I should be able to use those to maximize the game (get rid of the frame) and switch which DS screen the game plays on. I would assume if the game were on the touchscreen those could just be touched, but it is defaulting to the top screen. I can't figure out any way to customize which screen it plays on or if there is a way to get rid of the frame around the GBA game. Thanks for the help. Kenaf

Renting a Variety of Heavy Equipment
There are many advantages to leasing heavy machinery for your commercial or personal use. Buying tools outright can be very expensive, and it's also unnecessary if you do not need to use them continually. Heavy equipment rental options allow you to test-drive a tool, so to speak, and use it only for as long as you need to. This saves you time, effort and money in the end, and Nueces Power Equipment is the top rental provider in Corpus Christi. If you are in need of aggregate equipment, we can help you find and lease the items you're looking for.
Machinery Available for Rent
We carry a large stock of products that customers can lease for varying periods. Our inventory includes such tools as:
- 3-wheel and 4-wheel brooms
- Portable compressors
- Track loaders
- Dozers
- Skid-steer loaders
- Excavators – track and rubber tire
- Reclaimers/stabilizers
- Wheel loaders
- Pavers – asphalt and concrete
- Loader landscapers
- Compaction equipment – vibratory and pneumatic
- Forklifts – rough terrain
- Motor graders
- Loader backhoes
- Asphalt mills
These items are all popular tools commonly used in construction and other hands-on fields. Having them available to rent is a great resource, and it's our specialty.
The Advantages of Leasing
Leasing equipment makes accessing the tools you need easier than ever. In addition to a low payment made upfront, you can enjoy low monthly payments. Investing in newer equipment can also help to massively reduce the cost associated with maintaining your tools. Leasing provides flexibility that purchasing doesn't. If you don't like a tool, you can get a new one without wasting the money you would have spent on a purchase.
Find the Right Tools for Your Needs
Contractors in Corpus Christi, Houston, San Antonio, San Benito, El Paso, Victoria and Laredo trust Nueces Power Equipment for construction equipment service and rentals. To reach out to us, please call 361-289-0066.

Meet Nancy
Wed, 2012-10-17 16:35
Nancy, an Indianapolis based artist who specializes in aluminum embossing, plans to expand business by purchasing art supplies to create more exquisite designs. Her dream is to one day open a second enterprise, a catering service and restaurant, which will allow her to involve her whole family in the business. Nancy is a 22 year old artist, entrepreneur and Grameen America Borrower living in Indianapolis, Indiana. She is married and recently gave birth to a baby boy. When Nancy was younger, she developed an interest in the 'Repujado' style of aluminum embossing and took classes to perfect her technique. Her work consists of carving images onto thin sheets of aluminum and then painting and framing them for sale. Nancy was incredibly excited upon hearing about Grameen America's microloan program and immediately decided to take out a loan to invest in art supplies so that she could create and sell a larger volume of her beautiful pieces of art. So far, she has had great success selling her pieces to friends, local restaurants and churches.

Cut QualityThe ideal cut diamond is designed to reflect a maximum amount of light through the crown. When a diamond is ideally cut, light rays from all sides are bent towards the center of the stone and are reflected back through the top in a blaze of light. Such diamonds are perceived as most brilliant and fiery, thus making this the most desirable cut.
ColorH color grade diamonds are second best in a colorless category. Most H color diamonds have a very light yellow tint that may be more noticeable when the diamond is placed on a white surface. Such diamonds look beautiful in platinum and white gold and offer outstanding value.
ClarityDiamonds of VS1 clarity are very slightly included grade one. VS1 diamonds with tiny inclusions that are difficult to locate. Only a trained eye looking through a 10X loupe can pinpoint the inclusions in this category. The inclusions are nearly impossible to see with the naked eye. Excellent buy by all means.

Tag: Zouk
Are museums becoming hip and happening? You bet, if these photos of the inaugural Night Festival (organised by the National Museum of Singapore) are anything to shout about.
From what I hear, the opening weekend featuring the world famous Studio Festi drew more than 20,000 visitors! Visitors were awed by the aerial acrobatic aesthetic displays, which defied gravity and were almost magical. Opening to rave reviews, the festival showed that Singaporeans are essentially creatures of the night (probably because of our blazing tropical Sun).
Last Friday night, I popped over to check out the action at about 11.30 pm. Being a fan of Singapore's number one club Zouk, I also wanted to see how its Beatnik Picnic fared.

Just returned from the Sound Stories Concert, a celebration of old-time bands from the past at Zouk – the icon of cool in Singapore. Held in conjunction with the Singapore HeritageFest, the bash brought back many vintage acts like Max Surin (of Tokyo Square fame), Matthew and the Mandarins, Vernon Cornelius, Jive Talkin', and Robert Fernando.
Hosted by the ever effable Brian Richmond, the concert certainly rocks (especially for the…umm… young at heart). As I swayed to the beat of some of the numbers, I realised too that – gasp – I am getting on in years too! This, plus my latest inclination towards listening to Gold 90 FM.
Our party began at Singapore's number one nightspot of the year. Of course, as it was only about 9 pm when we went in, the regular party-goers hadn't quite gathered yet.

|[jira] Commented: (DERBY-2925) Prevent export from overwriting existing files
|Mon, 23 Jul 2007 19:06:31 GMT
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-2925?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_12514736 ] Bryan Pendleton commented on DERBY-2925: ---------------------------------------- Thanks Ramin, that explanation makes complete sense to me. I don't have a strong opinion about this deleteFile issue. I think it is nice of the tool to avoid leaving partial files around. The only possible problem I can see is that I think there could be a scenario in which the export fails partway through, and it's not obvious which row of data caused the failure, but by looking at the end of the partial file, the user can see which rows were successfully written just *before* the failure, and gain a clue about where the failure is occurring. So I don't have any particular guidance to give. I think the new deleteFile behavior is useful, but I think it would also be fine to remove that portion of the patch and handle it by changing the tests as you suggested. > Prevent export from overwriting existing files > ---------------------------------------------- > > Key: DERBY-2925 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-2925 > Project: Derby > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: Security, Tools > Affects Versions: 10.1.2.1, 10.2.2.0, 10.3.1.3, 10.4.0.0 > Reporter: Kathey Marsden > Assignee: Ramin Moazeni > Attachments: DERBY-2925v0.diff, DERBY-2925v0.stat, DERBY-2925v1.diff, DERBY-2925v1.stat, DERBY-2925v2.diff, DERBY-2925v2.stat > > > Export should not overwrite existing files, but rather insist that the user remove them before writing to the file. This will help prevent accidental or intentional corruption of the database with export. This may introduce a compatibility issue with export but because export is usually an attended utility and not typically invoked as part of an application, I think the risk is worth the additional security this will provide. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.

Repent's best is yet to come
NEW ORLEANS - With Repent, the focus is on the here and now. He will be heavily favored in Sunday's Louisiana Derby at Fair Grounds, and, if successful, will remain one of the leading contenders for the May 4 Kentucky Derby.
And yet as good as this colt is now - and he is unquestionably one of the few from this 3-year-old crop who appears well suited to handle the Kentucky Derby's 1 1/4 miles - trainer Ken McPeek thinks Repent is still far from reaching his potential.
"He's still got some improvement to make," McPeek said during a conference call Tuesday. "I think he'll be even better as a 4-year-old than at 2 or 3, and that's a scary thought."
Especially so to those who will face Repent on Sunday. There is little difference between last month's Risen Star Stakes, which Repent won by 2 1/4 lengths, and the Louisiana Derby. Bob's Image and Easyfromthegitgo again are the main rivals. The distance is still 1 1/16 miles. Only the purse is considerably more, $750,000 as opposed to $125,000.
is getting a new rider in Jerry Bailey, who replaces Tony D'Amico, and even if you don't like the politics of such a switch, it would be hard to argue that it's detrimental to the colt.
Repent, who has been based this winter at Gulfstream Park, has the benefit of a strong race over this track.
"Horses just don't come in here and run like that," said Steve Asmussen, the trainer of Easyfromthegitgo, referring to Repent's Risen Star victory.
Repent has done little wrong. He has won 4 of 6 starts, and has finished second and third in his other races. He was second to unbeaten champion Johannesburg in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile, beating Siphonic. Yet McPeek said Repent still has plenty of room to develop, both physically and, especially, mentally.
"Harlan's Holiday," McPeek said, referring to his other top 3-year-old, "is mentally further along than Repent at this point. I think [Repent] is 80 percent of where he'll end up being if he moves forward physically and mentally."
Repent is an eye-catching colt. A dark bay with a long, white blaze that is slipped like a celery stalk, Repent was purchased as a yearling for $230,000 by McPeek for the Select Stable of owners Feye and Jerry Bach. He's a tall, leggy colt who figures to fill out into an imposing specimen over the next few months. He is aggressive when he trains, with spirited gallops, and has a tendency to want to start his works before his rider is ready. When working, "he gallops very fast to the pole," McPeek said. "He does things easily."
He also can act like a petulant teenager. "He's not the warm and fuzzy kind," McPeek said. "He tends to be somewhat mean. Yet when you get a hold of him, he can be a puppy dog."
Repent was third in his debut last summer at Ellis Park going six furlongs, then won a mile maiden race at Turfway Park. "His first race, going short, I thought he went through the motions, and even though he won his second race, I thought he went through the motions again," McPeek said.
So, McPeek added blinkers for Repent's third race, the Kentucky Cup Juvenile, which he won. The blinkers have remained on Repent, though McPeek has given some thought to removing or altering them. McPeek said he broached the subject after Repent worked five furlongs in 1:00.60 Tuesday morning at Gulfstream, but Bailey said to leave well enough alone.
"Jerry said he felt good, and he was hitting the ground good," McPeek said. "I've been tempted to take them off, or cut them back, but at this point, he's running well, so why change?"
McPeek would like to break Repent of two bad habits he displayed in the Risen Star. Repent never changed leads through the stretch run, and he lugged in severely. McPeek is hoping Bailey can contribute to progress in those areas.
"When Jerry worked him, he switched over perfectly," McPeek said. "If he's going to win a race like the Derby, he needs to change on cue."
The problem changing leads in races, McPeek said, "is a sign this horse is still not quite there yet."
And it's one of the reasons why McPeek believes, "I'm not convinced we've seen him at 100 percent."

About Reiki Energy
Reiki is an ancient healing art rediscovered in Japan in the 1800's by Dr. Mikao Usui. Through an investigative process that led him to Sanskrit texts, Usui stumbled on healing practices used by both Buddha and Jesus. The origin can be traced back to ancient Tibet. Usui's techniques reawaken and reopen the leaking channel within the Practitioner to allow for the transfer of the vital life force..

After Anastasia Seifetdinova's Carnegie Hall debut in 2006, the New York Concert Review wrote: "hearing a new pianist with a truly warm, luscious tone is like breathing in the scent of jasmine blooming - a pleasure to be recalled again and again - and so I'm happy to report that from the first note she touched at her Weill Hall recital, Anastasia Seifetdinova was a genuine pleasure to listen to."
