2012 GODORT Award Winners
James Bennett Childs Award
John B. Phillips is the recipient of the 2012 James Bennett Childs Award. This award honors a person who has made a lifetime and significant contribution to the field of government documents and their use in libraries.
The many letters received in support of his nomination list contributions in a number of areas including: leadership as a government documents librarian, teaching and mentoring of government documents librarians, work with GODORT, the Depository Library Council, the Patent Depository Library Association, the Oklahoma Library Association, contributions to the TRAIL project, and work with publishers creating highly valued reference tools and documents collections. His contributions span close to forty years.
Many of his letters speak words of great praise for his career in the Government Documents Department at Oklahoma State University, starting as a documents cataloger, moving up to department head, and later adding the title Director, Digital Oklahoma Maps Collection. In addition, the letters speak of John's commitment to the students and faculty at Oklahoma State and the seriousness with which he carried out his role as regional depository librarian. Also mentioned was John's passion for advocating the primary research value of historical government publications and his love for speaking about how to find and use historical materials. (Please ask him about barbed wire!) The McCasland Digital Collection of Early Oklahoma and Indian Territory Maps was often pointed to as a great example of his work.
John's letters noted his role as a teacher and mentor. For many years, he taught the government publications course at the University of Oklahoma School of Library and Information Studies. He has influenced many librarians over the course of his career, including some whose names are well known in depository circles and some whose names will become known in the next few years.
His association with GODORT has been long and productive including chairing the Rare and Endangered Publications Committee and the Awards Committee. He also served as secretary of the Ad Hoc Committee on Digitization of Government Information and, in 2003, he received the Bernadine Abbott Hoduski Founders Award.
He was a member of the Depository Library Council and served as Chair during the final year of his term. John has also made a number of presentations at the Federal Depository Library Conference. He was an active participant in the Regional Depository Librarians meetings and served a year as chair of that group. Following the fall 2004 Depository Library Council Meeting he was invited to speak with the staff of the Senate Committee on Rules and Administration about the transition from a predominately print to a more electronic FDLP.
Also noted in the letters were John's contributions to patent depositories. He was a founding member of the Patent Depository Library Association and served as a Regional Representative, as well as Chair-elect and Chair. He compiled the Directory of Patent Depository Libraries. In recognition of his years of giving presentations and workshops on patents, the Oklahoma Inventor's Congress granted him a lifetime membership. John has also been very active in the Oklahoma Library Association, giving numerous presentations and poster sessions over the years and serving as chair of the OLA Government Documents Roundtable. In 2007, the Oklahoma Library Association presented him with the Oklahoma Library Legends Award.
In short, John is a leader within the national field of government documents librarianship, and his professional endeavors are of the highest quality and value to the profession. Two quotes from his letters of support sum up why he was selected for the Childs Award: "John loves government documents and one of his greatest joys is sharing and inspiring this love with others" and "John has been one of the most dedicated, caring, knowledgeable, and informative government information librarians I've ever known."
ProQuest/GODORT/ALA "Documents to the People" Award
The 2012 ProQuest/GODORT/ALA Documents to the People Award is awarded to the Association of Southeastern Research Libraries (ASERL) Collaborative Federal Depository Program (CFDP).
This award is given to the ASERL CFDP as it offers an achievable and sustainable plan for the development and preservation of comprehensive depository collections on a multi-state level. The elements noted in the nomination are:
- Excitement & Interest: The ASERL plan has excited and energized the "documents community." This is one of the first cooperative/collaborative plans that has gathered enthusiasm from within and interest and envy from those not a part of ASERL.
- Inventorying & Cataloging: By collecting, cataloging, and providing access to federal documents collections on an agency-based, incremental basis, the goal of ASERL Centers of Excellence is to insure permanent public access to these collections.
- Discards Database: ASERL has created the ASERL Documents Disposition Database, the first depository discards database allowing all libraries in the region to see discards from all of the participating southeast states, vastly expanding the possibilities for improving collections around the region.
- Raised Profile with Library Administrators: The ASERL is putting government documents collections in the limelight – in a good way. Library deans see the value of focusing on a portion of a collection – making it more discoverable and improving its quality and comprehensiveness.
- Provoked Discussion: The initiative has also provoked discussion, spotlighting the need for more flexibility in the program, especially in the legal requirements for regional depositories.
- Position for Future: The ASERL Collaborative Federal Depository Program positions depositories in the southeast to move seamlessly into a future government information environment rich in online - born and digitized - resources as well as firmly grounded in geographically distributed print collections. Public access is enhanced because libraries are committing to a high level of service for their Center of Excellence collections.
- Ensure Continuing Access: Centers of Excellence sign a Memoranda of Understanding that they will inventory, catalog, preserve, and retain the materials. Libraries are identifying Centers of Excellence in areas that are, and will continue to be important to their institutions.
- Comprehensive Collections: An IMLS grant supported the creation of a "gap analysis" database. This database will allow Centers of Excellence and other depository libraries to load short bibliographic records for their collections, and facilitate comparisons among collections and will help establish what a true comprehensive collection of U.S. government documents should contain.
The ASERL CFDP concept takes advantage of today's technological advances and challenges librarians to think beyond their own environment and to envision a truly cooperative depository world, where the ultimate goal is actively promoted government information collections, a dedicated service environment, and protection, for all time, of the unique and powerful content of government publications. This embodies the phrase "Documents to the People" and makes this award a well-deserved one.
Margaret T. Lane / Virginia F. Saunders Memorial Research Award
Harold Relyea is the 2012 recipient of the Margaret T. Lane / Virginia F. Saunders Memorial Research Award for his article, "The Federal Register: Origins, formulation, realization, and heritage" which was printed in Government Information Quarterly, July 2011, vol. 28, no. 3, pgs. 295-302.
The article focuses on the origin and development of the Federal Register, its significance as a publication, its role in creating greater government transparency and the legacy of the Federal Register Act. This article cites government information from hearings, statutes, court cases as well as documents, reports, and files in the National Archives from a wide variety of federal agencies, the Weekly Compilation of Presidential Documents, and congressional testimony.
NewsBank/Readex/GODORT/ALA Catharine J. Reynolds Research Grant
The 2012 recipients of the Catharine J. Reynolds Research Grant are Helen Sheehy and Kristene Unsworth.
Helen Sheehy is the Head of the Social Sciences Library at the Paterno Library, Pennsylvania State University. She has been a government information librarian and active member of GODORT and IFLA for over 20 years. She has presented nationally and internationally and published extensively, particularly in the area of international government information.
Helen's current research will involve a citation analysis of ten core journals from 1995-2010 in medicine and health sciences to understand the impact of internet access on usage patterns for government information in scholarly scientific publications. The Reynolds award stipend will be used to fund the coding and analysis of citation data. Helen's study is part of a broader Pennsylvania State University Library study of changing patterns of government information use by scholars in different disciplines. This research is timely given the increased availability of online government information, and will offer a more nuanced view of scholarly communication and the role of government information. It also has potentially significant implications for government information collection and reference practice in academic libraries. Helen will share the results of her study through a journal article and GODORT Occasional Paper.
Kristene Unsworth is an Assistant Professor in the iSchool at Drexel, College of Information Science and Technology, Drexel University. She has published and presented extensively in the areas of information policy, ethics and e-government.
The purpose of Kris's research will be to identify the range and frequency of government information related questions being asked through the Internet Public Library's (IPL2) online reference service. Given the increased reliance on online resources to access government information and the importance of this type of information throughout society and across disciplines, she aims to provide an understanding of how to better incorporate government information education in online reference.
The Reynolds award stipend will be used to fund the transcription recordings of focus groups conducted during the study. The results will then be used to highlight this aspect of library science education, to improve IPL2 training materials and to inform the design of government information courses in Library and Information Science programs.

At Professional Cleaners UK we specialise in the cleaning of communal areas in blocks of flats, offices, educational establishments, sports clubs, hospitals, shops and more.
We work with property management companies of various sizes on varying budgets, so if you are looking for communal cleaning in Dalneigh you have come to the right place.
Our brilliant communal cleaners work with numerous managing agents, housing associations and privately managed buildings all over the country on a daily, weekly and monthly basis; delivering high-quality and reliable cleaning services time after time.
We carry out these communal cleans on buildings of different shapes and sizes and we have cleaning teams to suit any job; so if you are looking for a cleaning company in Dalneigh to carry out regular or even one-off cleans, we can help.
Please contact us today for a free quote on our communal area cleaning services.
We look forward to hearing from you and working with you soon.
Put simply, communal area cleaning (or commercial cleaning) is the cleaning of shared spaces used by various people, typically in offices, residential blocks of flats and shared accommodation.
It goes without saying that people don't want to either see or use a dirty facility; whether that is just walking through a hallway, using a shared kitchen, common areas, a reception area, a company toilet or something different.
However, you equally don't want to spend your time tidying up the communal areas and mess of others if it's not your responsibility, it's not a lot of fun, whilst drawing up a personal or work-related cleaning rota (or managing independent cleaners yourself) can be difficult and time-consuming.
This type of cleaning is thus tricky to manage and execute which is why many outsource this work to independent cleaning companies such as Professional Cleaners UK - so let us take the responsibility and stress out of your hands!
Handing this work to top cleaning service teams means you can enjoy a sparkling and clean communal facility year-round without the hassle of looking after it yourself and the complications that may bring. Communal cleaning is also much more affordable than many think.
If you would like a FREE quote and more information on our communal cleaning services in Dalneigh make sure you drop us a message today.
Our most popular types of communal cleaning jobs are listed below, but for more information simply contact us and we will send more information or give you a call to discuss further:
This type of communal cleaning is one of the most popular we deal with.
We typically carry these cleans out for businesses, individual residents, schools, offices, halls of residence, gyms and hospitals, working alongside property managers and general managers.
The cleaning of most shared hallways and lobbies are paid for by a managed "service fee" - particularly in the cases of flats and apartments - with a proportion of this fee tending to go towards the cleaning of the communal areas; with Professional Cleaners UK, you won't find a better value service to keep everyone happy in both price and quality of work.
If you are a landlord or a building management company get in contact today to find out about all the high-quality communal cleaning services we offer and how we can help you.
Our teams can also look after outside areas if this is of interest to you, including patios and driveways; which we clean and sanitise to industry-leading standards, with the toughest of stains and marks removed using specialist industrial equipment and products.
Our top communal cleaning teams in Dalneigh also work through all seasons and weathers to keep things looking spick and span, tidy and pleasant for you and others either using or passing through your outside communal area.
Our communal area cleaners in Dalneigh deal with two main types of office and workspace cleans every day, highlighted below:
Cleaning of office spaces - this is something we deal with 24 hours a day - from small businesses through to multi-nationals and corporations.
Cleaning of co-working spaces and shared offices - sharing the price of a cleaner across a few companies is a great way to keep prices down and morale up, particularly for small companies and sole traders. Having a lot of people in one place, all working to different deadlines, varying priorities and working hours, can mean keeping on top of the cleaning can be tricky if doing this yourself. As most of these spaces have shared bathrooms, showers and kitchens, cleanliness can quickly become a problem if not managed on a daily basis and by professionals. This type of clean is the fastest growing sector that we deal with at Professional Cleaners UK.
Whichever of the above you are, our communal cleaners can thoroughly clean offices and working spaces of any shape or size, either during or after working hours.
Our standard cleans in these common areas would include the following basic duties - however, bespoke requests will be catered for:
Floors - swept, hoovered and/or mopped
Kitchen facilities disinfected and sanitised
Desks and facilities dusted
Bins are taken out and everything tidied up
Communal bathroom, toilets and showers cleaned
Hallways cleaned
Reception cleaned and hoovered
We believe that a clean and tidy working environment is a happy working environment, and the less time your workers must spend cleaning up, the more they can spend getting things done for you.
For more specific information on office cleaning read here.
Whether or not you know well the people you share with, cleaning rotas somehow never seem to work and annoy most people! We have all been there and done that.
There's always something somewhere it shouldn't be, no matter how many times you move it and some things seem to never get cleaned properly.
The easy solution to housemate bickering and the constant responsibility for tidying falling to one person? Simple, we say, call in the professionals!
Our cleaning teams can clean as many or as few rooms in the home as you like, and you can specify which services you'd like and which you wouldn't, this means we can effectively work to most budgets.
Having someone looking after your house cleaning can maintain both a happy house and also great levels of cleanliness - with minimal effort from those living there.
For more information on specific domestic cleans and our great rates read here.
Cleaning communal areas and common areas is very important for both health and safety reasons but also presentational purposes (especially if you are a business); no business wants to look unclean and no one wants to live in a messy or unsafe place of residence. Cleaning communal areas and communal cleaning can often be tricky as it needs to be done when people or workers or not around.
With friendly and efficient staff, combined with years of professional experience, our brilliant cleaners at Professional Cleaners UK provide a complete communal cleaning service at fantastic prices. We take great pride and enjoy our work; we think that makes us stand out from other top cleaning companies.
Our management and cleaning teams also work closely with our clients to make sure that requirements and briefs are carried out to a high standard and that our cleans are mindful of residents and workers, therefore providing a service that is considerate, convenient and professional at all times.
The costs of communal areas cleaning services depend on various factors, - namely:
The type of property you want cleaning - obviously, the larger the facility the more expensive the communal cleaning is likely to be. When we speak with you we can advise on this.
How regular you want the cleans - how regular you would like our cleaners to attend - whether daily, weekly or monthly - will affect the cleaning cost. Some businesses require 24-hour cleaning. We can guide you on this when we know what you are looking for.
How many cleaners you require - some cleans just require one cleaner whilst larger jobs (such as an office building) can require a full team. This can depend on your budget and the turnaround time of the job. We will work with property managers to work out how many are needed.
If you need any special extra services - other communal area cleaning services include options such as window cleaning, carpet cleaning etc.
Find out more about our communal area cleaning services and regular cleaning today:
We provide many high-quality additional services at Professional Cleaners UK which can be included in the regular communal cleans we carry out.

Report: Camera fix for the Lumia 920 coming from Nokia this month
The Lumia 920 has impressed many with the PureView camera technology Nokia has installed inside the Windows Phone. The optical image stabilisation (OIS), software enhancements and Carl Zeiss lens are just a few features that work together to create some truly astonishing magic when taking shots in low light.
However, there's an issue with photographs taken in good amounts light. Lack of detail, sharpness and while it's not a deal breaker, it does cause alarm especially when low light shots are that good. Thankfully, Nokia is set to release a firmware update to address problems raised by consumers.
We've taken a second look at the Lumia 920 camera and concluded that while the low light performance was nothing short of incredible, there was room for improvement. When taking shots that weren't at night (or in a dark room), one would notice a lack of detail and blurriness. This could be rectified through post-capture editing, but we'd expect such a superior camera to have little issue.
The image above compares quality between the Lumia 920 prior the update and with it applied. Our George Ponder went into some detail when looking at the current state of the camera:
We've always believed Nokia would release an update (or rather bundle it with an OS OTA update) soon enough to iron out any creases in the camera software for the production of sharper, clear images to be possible. This is turning to reality with the update in the works and well on the way. Engadget obtained a number of photos taken with two Lumia 920s (one is visible above with the cats). One Lumia 920 (left) is using existing firmware - PR1.0, while the second is running the upcoming version - PR1.1.
The Lumia 920's camera and housing
It's clear from analysing the photos supplied that Nokia has made strong progress on fixing the Lumia 920 camera to make results sharper and more clear. While it's not perfect, we're sure the company will continue to work on adding improvements when possible - we saw a software update released for the Lumia 900 that improved the camera quality greatly.

All the latest news, reviews, and guides for Windows and Xbox diehards.
The update is expected to be bundled with Microsoft's upcoming 'Portico' release for Windows Phone 8. For Lumia 920 owners, this OTA update will not only contain the camera fix (as well as other software enhancements), but also the constant WiFi connection and will address the random reset issue, SMS drafts and call rejection functionality to name but a handful of features that are on their way.
If you'd like to read up more on how to effectively use the camera on the Lumia 920, be sure to read up on our in-depth guide to all the features and functionality.

This week we're learning that Microsoft's new Outloook webmail service is actually pretty awesome, that you can watch the olympics online, in real time, for free, and that Amazon's CloudPlayer service is actually worth a look again. Also, we're answering your questions about cloud music, uTorrent, and mobile Wi-Fi hotspots.
How to Watch or Listen to This Week's Episode
You can watch the episode by clicking the play button above, but there are plenty of other ways to get it:
Watch it on our YouTube Channel.
Watch it on Revision3.
Listen to it on SoundCloud.
Subscribe to the HD, SD, or phone-sized, and audio-only feeds on iTunes.
Subscribe to the HD, SD, phone-sized, or audio-only (MP3) RSS feed.
News and Discussion
Microsoft Outlook for the Web Is Actually Awesome
Microsoft launched its latest revision to Hotmail/Windows Live Mail and is now calling it Outlook. It's surprisingly awesome. Check out our first look.
Hulu Web Update, Comes to Apple TV
The Apple TV got a little more interesting last week when Apple added Hulu+ to its available channels. With each new service on the device, its becoming less and less of a hobby and closer to having its own app store. We've still got our fingers crossed! For those of you using Hulu on the web, the latest update brings a major face-lift that'll make watching video a more engaging experience.
Amazon CloudPlayer Updates
Amazon CloudPlayer received a nice update that provides it with iTunes Match-like features and a simple price point. Now the service will scan your iTunes or Windows Media Player library to find all your music and match any songs already existing in Amazon's library. If it can't find a song, it'll upload your copy to the service. Every account gets 250 songs stored free on Amazon's servers, and unlimited accounts cost only $25 per year. This change puts the service as a nice hybrid between iTunes Match and Google Music. If you've written it off in the past, it's worth checking out again.
Additionally, Amazon released a Prime Instant Video app for iPad that allows streaming video to your computer. Right now it's pretty limited, in the sense that you can't access Amazon's entire instant streaming library, but the app is a pretty nice start.
Overcoming #NBCFail and Watching the Olympics Online
If you're in the US, watching the Olympics hasn't exactly been a treat with NBC time-shifting the events. If you want to watch each competition when it's on, you can turn to the internet. Thorin explains a simple way to watch online in just a few minutes.
Questions and Answers
Each week we answer five questions from readers and listeners. Here's what we tackled this week.
How can I use my Android phone as a Wi-Fi hotspot?
With apps! We've got a post with details here.
How can I burn a CD and share music easily when all my music is in the cloud?
You can't, really. You need to have a hard copy. This is the primary disadvantage of the cloud. We go over the problems in more detail and offer a few pseudo-solutions in the podcast.
What is the point of the DAT files in µTorrent?
When you download a torrent with multiple files, you can choose to ignore some of them—perfect if you only want a few small files in a big torrent. However, because BitTorrent splits up groups of files into pieces, sometimes one "piece" can span two different files. The DAT files store the data that you download, but don't want. In effect, they're harmless, and you can just ignore them—when you delete the torrent from µTorrent, they'll go away.
Downloads of the Week
Each week we talk about our favorite downloads. Here are our picks for this week.
Windows: Trackpad++
If you're running Windows on your killer Mac hardware, then you've probably noticed that the trackpad isn't quite as smooth and feature-filled as it is in OS X. Trackpad++ Brings more gestures, better scrolling, and lots more to Mac trackpads in Windows 7.
OS X: Lost Photos
IChances are you've received your share of photos in your email over the years, and you've likely lost track of some of those pictures. You could scrounge through your email by looking through all your attachments, but Lost Photos is an app that does the work for you.
Android: Tasker / Tasker App Factory
If you've ever thought "I wish my Android phone would do [X] whenever [Y] happened"-for example, text your significant other whenever you leave work; silence your phone when you walk into a movie; or turn on your ringer when you wake up in the morning-Tasker makes it possible. We've mentioned Tasker before, but Alan runs down several great uses for the app that make it worth another look.
Download Tasker and Tasker App Factory
iOS: Aphex Audio Xciter
Aphex Xciter is just like your iPhone's standard music app, but it processes the signal to add clarity and richness to your music (and other audio content). It has a few limitations on how long you can use it for free, but you can upgrade for $3.
Chrome: Gmail Shortcuts
Gmail has tons of great shortcuts, but they're only as good as how often you remember to use them. Shortcuts for Gmail is a Chrome extension that will let you know every time you do something that you could have done with a shortcut by displaying the shortcut on-screen. With luck, you'll remember it for next time.
How Do I Submit a Question?
There are three ways to send in your question:
Record a video, upload it somewhere, and send a link to [email protected]
Call (347) 687-8109 and record a question. Calls are awesome! We like them!
Email your question to [email protected].
Please keep your questions as brief as possible. This means about 3-5 sentences for emails and 30-60 seconds for calls and videos. Your questions can be specific, but broader questions are generally better because they'll apply to more people. For example, "how can I breathe new life into my old PDA?" is much better than "what can I do with an old HP iPAQ 210?" Either way, we look forward to hearing from you!

Republicans rule rural areas, while any Democrat can count on running up big margins in most of the large cities in the country. That has left the suburbs as the main partisan battleground.
For several election cycles now, the presidency has been won or lost based on the vote among suburbanites in a few key states. That's likely to be true again this November.
And some political observers believe that President Obama took the calculated risk that his newfound support for gay marriage rights will boost his campaign in these all-important counties.
Suburbanites tend to be liberal to moderate on social issues. Obama's stance in favor of same-sex marriage, combined with Republican attacks on birth control and abortion, could hurt all-but-official GOP nominee Mitt Romney among suburbanites, some observers say.
"Gay marriage is more dangerous in moderate swing suburban communities for the Republicans than it is for the Democrats," says Lawrence Levy, executive dean of the National Center for Suburban Studies at Hofstra University. "The mistake Republicans have made with suburban voters is expecting that they're like Republicans in red communities."
As the nation's older, inner-ring suburbs have grown denser and more diverse, they have also become more Democratic. Large counties that used to be favorable territory for Republicans — such as Fairfax County, Va., outside Washington, D.C., and Nassau County, N.Y., on Long Island — are now rich sources of Democratic votes.
Obama's victory in 2008 came about partly thanks to his ability to dominate larger suburban counties in states such as Colorado, Ohio and Pennsylvania. And he became the first Democrat to carry Virginia since 1964 by running up good-sized margins in the populous suburbs outside Washington, D.C.
But while Levy expects Obama's support for gay marriage to play well in many suburban areas, he doesn't expect it to override other issues of primary concern — most notably, the economy.
"This issue, for most suburban voters, is going to be way, way, way down the list of priorities," says Whit Ayres, a Republican political consultant. "Suburban voters are going to be voting overwhelmingly on the economy, jobs, spending and debt."
The gay-marriage issue, meanwhile, is likely to help Romney among rural and religious voters — strongly Republican constituencies that have been less than wildly enthusiastic about his campaign.
"The one negative consequence of this for Obama is that this could increase energy and support from the core groups that Romney needs for election," says Frank Newport, editor-in-chief at Gallup, the polling organization.
Denser And Democratic
Even in North Carolina, where voters overwhelmingly approved a ban on gay marriage Tuesday, several of the state's most populous counties, such as Wake, Mecklenburg and Durham, voted against the ban.
Even if you can make the case that suburbanites live in the most segregated places, they are turned off by any overt display of bias. That doesn't fit their image of themselves.
"I think the White House looked at that vote and decided it was a finally safe to go out into the water," says Henry Olsen, vice president of the American Enterprise Institute, a conservative think tank. "This is potentially a wedge issue among moderate suburbanites nationwide."
Recent polling by the Pew Research Center shows that residents of the suburbs support gay marriage, though not overwhelmingly so. Forty-eight percent of suburbanites are in favor of gay marriage, compared with 41 percent who are opposed. By comparison, 53 percent of rural Americans are opposed to gay marriage, and 36 percent in favor of its legality.
"Even if you can make the case that suburbanites live in the most segregated places, they are turned off by any overt display of bias," says Levy, the Hofstra scholar. "That doesn't fit their image of themselves."
Dollar-A-Year Men
Still, when asked about the salience of same-sex marriage, suburbanites — like just about everyone else — rank it pretty low on the list.
Ayres, the GOP consultant, suggests that gay marriage, like student loans, represents an attempt by the White House to appeal directly to particular constituencies.
Gays make up a crucial share of Obama's top campaign donors. Since the president announced his support for gay marriage on Wednesday, social media sites have been buzzing with gays and others announcing fresh campaign donations.
Many have posted, for instance, about their decision to give $1 to Obama's campaign for every year of a committed relationship — their own or a loved one's.
"Politically, this looks like a concerted strategy by the president and his team to gin up support among elements of his coalition that are not particularly energized about his campaign," Ayres says. "He's doing it because he's losing independents left and right because of the lousy economy and his handling of it."
The Battle Out West
In Colorado — widely considered one of the main battleground states this year — voters six years ago approved a ban on gay marriage. In 1992, they voted to block the state and municipalities from affording gays basic rights in areas such as housing and employment — a measure that was later overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court.
But support for gay marriage has grown in Colorado, as elsewhere, and is now a "50-50" proposition in the state, says Denver-based pollster Floyd Ciruli. "Like the nation, we have evolved," he says.
Colorado's regular legislative session ended Tuesday with a bill to allow gays to enter into civil unions blocked through procedural maneuvers. But Democratic Gov. John Hickenlooper has called a special session, starting Monday, to deal with civil unions and other matters.
"I consciously try to avoid divisive issues that are intensely polarizing," Hickenlooper said Thursday. "That being said, when it comes down to civil rights, you don't really have a choice."
Ciruli predicts that Republicans will have a hard time using the issue effectively against Democrats in the Denver suburbs, saying the issue lacks the sort of "bite" it once had.
On the other hand, he doesn't expect gay marriage to be a big political winner for Obama or other Democrats, either.
"In the suburbs, unless you are really into gay rights, this doesn't seem like one of the biggest issues," Ciruli says. "We're so utterly consumed by the economy."

Dear Colleagues:
Welcome to Maryland's portal containing national and state resources for Response to Intervention (RtI) and tiered instructional programs. We anticipate that this site will support parents, educators, and school-based problem-solving teams in serving each student in our schools.
Maryland has an ongoing commitment to improve education for each student in our State, striving to strengthen each Maryland school to ensure all students master content knowledge in all their subjects. Our Tiered Instructional Approach to Support Achievement of All Students:Maryland's Response to Intervention Framework 2008 document provides guidance to local school system's in Maryland to support achievement of all students with emphasis on those students who are not demonstrating grade appropriate skill and content mastery. This site contains links to support the essential components of RtI including universal screening, tiered levels of intervention, progress monitoring, and fidelity of implementation. With the implementation of RtI processes, Maryland educators can continuously refine educational practices to ensure each student achieves or exceeds performance standards.
Enhancing educational quality requires ongoing support, collaboration, and advocacy among students, teachers, administrators, parents, and community and governmental leaders. The implementation of these processes is complex and requires ongoing learning for local school system staff, as well as, informational meetings for parents, and community and governmental leaders regarding how to support this effort to meet the needs of each student in Maryland public schools. On this site you will find linkages to professional development modules to support your work.
Thank you in advance for your continuing efforts to improve education for all children in Maryland schools. Together we can continue to ensure that Maryland's public education is the best in the nation.
Lillian M. Lowery, Ed.D.State Superintendent of Schools

The Timber
Wood displays different grain patterns depending on which way they are cut - for example, the 'medullary ray' which can appear on oak furniture is a mark of good quality timber, these are just characteristics of the natural beauty of the wood. Wood veneers also allow distinctive patterns to be created on some surfaces, such as table tops and drawer fronts by the way slivers are arranged. All timber and veneer surfaces will change colour and mellow over time. New furniture will initially vary in shade from items that have been previously purchased.

Colour Accuracy
We try our best to ensure photography depicts colours as accurately as possible. Colours can appear different depending on the type of display you are viewing from, therefore we recommend viewing in person for true colour representation.

We use recycled packaging where possible, reusing the boxes, paper and wrap that products arrive in when we receive them. From time to time this means depending on what you order your product may arrive with bubble wrap. As much as we want to be plastic-free, it makes sense to us to re-use and minimise waste by using bubble wrap to protect your product.

Faulty Items
Under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993, the items you purchase from us are required to be of acceptable quality.
If you consider that an item that you have purchased is faulty, please return the item to us at 133 Main Street Upper Hutt for assessment. This can take up to five working days from the date the item is received by our team. If the item is faulty, we will either repair or replace the item, depending on the circumstances; if a repair or replacement is not available, then we will be happy to provide you with a full refund.
We are not responsible for any fault that may have arisen due to your use or care of the item if you have used the item in a way, or to an extent, that a reasonable consumer would not have used the item – this includes a failure to follow care instructions. If we find that the fault has arisen due to your use or care of the item, we are not responsible for your costs of returning the item to us to be assessed, or sending the item back to you.
If the item is faulty and we have failed to repair the fault in a reasonable length of time (after we have assessed the item), then you can either have the item fixed elsewhere (and we will be responsible for the costs) or reject the goods and return them to us for either a replacement item or a refund.
If the fault cannot be repaired or is a breach of substantial character of any of the warranties implied under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993, then you can reject the item by returning it to us, and receive either a replacement item or a refund. If you want to reject the item, you need to do so within a reasonable time.

Red Sox - 000 003 000 - 3 7 1Once again, the Red Sox rely on Timlin in a tie game in the ninth inning when Papelbon is presumably available. And once again, that decision ends in a quick loss.
Mariners - 201 000 001 - 4 8 1
Brad Mills was calling the shots, after Terry Francona was ejected (along with Lugo) in the fifth inning, shortly after Matsuzaka left with a possible hip injury. In the ninth, Balentien reached on an infield single that Cora could not field in the hole. Balentien moved to second on Cairo's bunt and took third on Reed's grounder to second. After Ichiro was walked intentionally, Lopez lined a game-winning single past Lowell at third down the left field line.
... Timlin -- never a good decision.
(Although, honestly, Old Yeller did alright, all things considered. If Cora makes the play in the hole, everything might have been fine and the game might have gone to the 10th.)
Dice allowed three early runs before Manny tied the game with his 499th career dong.
Daisuke Matsuzaka (2.40, 180 ERA+) / Miguel Batista (6.47, 61 ERA+)
Clay Buchholz could come off the disabled list on Wednesday, but he'll make at least one more start for Pawtucket -- Friday against Durham.
Jon Lester was named the AL Player of the Week. (His father has been diagnosed with lymphoma.) ... Julian Tavarez has signed with the Brewers.

Drugs in the fibrate family are used to improve levels of cholesterol and related lipids found in the blood. Fibrates are particularly helpful for individuals with high levels of triglycerides.
Medications in this category include:
- Clofibrate (Atromid-S)
- Gemfibrozil (Lopid)
- Fenofibrate (Tricor)
Fibrate drugs are known to raise homocysteine levels in the blood. High levels of homocycsteine have been associated with increased risk of heart disease, although a direct connection has not been proven.
In a double-blind, placebo controlled trial of 29 men taking fenofibrate, use of the B-vitamins folate (650mcg), vitamin B12 (50mcg) and vitamin B6 (50mg) once daily for 6 weeks restored homocysteine levels to nearly normal values. 1
Fibrate drugs are known to increase the "blood thinning" effects of drugs in the warfarin (Coumadin) family. Certain herbs, such as garlic, danshen, devil's claw, dong quai, papaya, PC-SPES and red clover, may thin the blood in a manner somewhat similar to warfarin. Although no such interactions have yet been reported, it is at least theoretically possible that combined use of these herbs and fibrate drugs could pose a risk of bleeding problems.

Battlestar Wiki:Translation Project
| |||||
This project deals with converting articles from the Battlestar Wiki into other languages and how to accomplish that task.
Presently, all of the content on this wiki is in english — American english, to be specific. We have people who view this Wiki from other countries, as far away as Europe and Asia. And likely further.
Therefore, this is a formal effort to recruit mutlilingual contributors and organize these contributors to translate our documents in other languages. Once there is enough translations of a particular translation, the Battlestar Wiki, as a group, will sit down and see if there is cause enough for a full language site with the "battlestarwiki.org" domain name.
Currently we have these official sub-language projects with there status.
| |||||
Every language starts out with at least two sysops approved by the English administrators. Afterwards the wiki must hold their own RFA hearings.
If you want to help out with any or all of these language wikis, please goto those sites. Keep in mind that you will have to refer to this Wiki for policy questions.
How to Begin
To begin, create a subpage of the article you wish to translate. For instance, let's say you were going to tackle the article on The Fleet and translate it into Spanish. Here's how you would begin:
- In the search box, type in:
- The Fleet/es:La Flota
- Press "Go". Select "create this article" option.
- Begin translating the article. Once done, list the article on this page under Articles Translated.
Once there are a growing number of articles, Joe or Shane will then set up an individual BSG Wiki for that language. (i.e. de.battlestarwiki.org for German BSG Wiki, et al.). Never, ever, place interwiki links on these subpages.
Articles Needing Translation
Obviously our eventual goal is to have just about everything translated. Rather than listing every page here, this can be used to request critical pages for translators to focus on.
These three should be the first ones done.
- Battlestar Wiki:Spoiler Policy - All languages.
- Battlestar Wiki:Standards and Conventions - All languages.
- Battlestar Wiki:Citation Jihad - All languages.
There are others to be translated as well that need to be translated before you can even get your own-wiki. Please take a look at the list here. If you can prove that you can deicated a full force of at least 5-10 people to translating all the required information, we will create a language wiki without question and import all your work to the language wiki. Articles still needing translations from the current languages we support are located here.
It is suggested you start from the oldest episodes and articles first before you more to articles that always under going edits.
There are standards and conventions for translating. Please read this before doing anything.
Who is admin of these wikis during setup?
Joe and Shane will be the two overall admins (B-crats, Sysop, checkuser), but you will have to decide as a group who will represent your language.
Language Specific Spoiler Checkpoints
Feel free to adjust the title of this section. This section is intended to be a handy place to keep track of how far the series has progressed in the particular languages, in order to avoid translating spoiler content over from the English side. Only languages that are translating in conjunction with the English Wiki are listed here.
Contributors to this project may be added here. Please include the languages you would be interested in translating our documents to, as well as your level of expertise in said language.

Red Sox - 000 110 100 - 3 6 0Four consecutive pitches from Wakefield with one out in the first inning -- Crosby double, called strike, Cust RBI single, Thomas 2-run dong -- put the Red Sox in an early hole.
Athletics - 304 001 00x - 8 8 1
Oakland got four more runs off Wake in the third. A walk and two singles brought in one run, then Ellis whacked a three-run dong to left, and it was Oakland 7-0.
Pedroia homered in the fourth. Ellsbury drove in Boston's other two runs: singling in Drew (who had doubled) in the fifth and Lugo (who had reached on an infield error) in the seventh.
Tampa Bay shut out Baltimore 2-0 to move back to 1.5 GB. The Yankees pounded Seattle 13-2, but remain locked in the basement.
Tim Wakefield (4.33, 99 ERA+) / Rich Harden (2.91, 131 ERA+)
Back on May 15, I noted (expected, hoped, etc.) that the Red Sox were going to "put an obscene beating on both the Brewers and Royals".
The team went 7-0, outscoring Milwaukee and Kansas City 49-28. That may not be obscene, but it'll do. The team batted .300/.377/.520 while holding its opponents to a .219/.312/.388 line.
Tonight starts a ten-game road trip with three in Oakland, three in Seattle and four in Baltimore. Then it's back to Fenway for a three-game AL East showdown with the Devil Rays.
As you can see by the schedule, the Sox have put together separate losing streaks of 3, 4 and 5 games as well as separate winning streaks of 4, 5, 6 and 7 games. All in the first 50 games of the season.

This is WEEKEND EDITION from NPR News. I'm Scott Simon. A popular payroll tax break will be extended through the end of the year. Lawmakers on Capitol Hill yesterday managed to hurriedly enact the deal. It was a final act before a 10-day recess. Now, the agreement was cut with large bipartisan coalitions in both the House and the Senate without any 11th hour drama this time. Long-term unemployment benefits and a fix to forestall cuts in Medicare payments were also extended. And somewhat miraculously Congress got it done 12 days before those measures were set to expire. That's quite a story and NPR's David Welna has it.
DAVID WELNA, BYLINE: Congress made short work of the hastily forged deal. First, the House passed it by a wide margin, despite 90 Republicans who broke ranks with their leaders and voted no. Then it went over to the Senate. That's where Max Baucus, the Montana Democrat who chairs the finance committee and who helped finesse the deal, asked his colleagues to consider some numbers before voting on extending the payroll tax cut.
SENATOR MAX BAUCUS: One hundred sixty million - that's the number of Americans who are helped by this bill. Next number is 1,000. What's that? That's $1,000 each of those Americans are going to be benefited by the passage of this bill.
WELNA: And 60 - that's the number of senators who voted for the deal. And that meant it was going to President Obama's desk for his signature. During a visit yesterday to a Boeing plant in Everett, Washington, Mr. Obama gave his audience credit for getting the payroll tax cut extended.
PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA: Because you reminded people what it means to have 40 bucks taken out of your paycheck every week, it got done. This is a big deal. And I want to thank members of Congress for listening to the voices of the American people. It is amazing what happens when Congress focuses on doing the right thing instead of just playing politics. This was a good example, and Congress should take pride in it.
WELNA: House Republican leaders greased the skids for a deal this week by dropping their demand that the $100 billion cost of extending the payroll tax cut be paid for. Congressman Tom Reid, a New York Republican, says Democrats forced that GOP concession.
REPRESENTATIVE TOM REID: It's clear that we're not going to agree to paying for the $100-plus billion we needed and we ended up with this.
WELNA: In the Senate, Republicans opposed the deal by a margin of more than two-to-one. So did one Independent and five Democrats, including Virginia's Mark Warner, who accused his colleagues of being like Wimpy from the Popeye cartoons.
SENATOR MARK WARNER: Now, Wimpy's theory was - remember every cartoon - I'll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today.
WELNA: Or in the case of the payroll tax cut, perhaps when the economy gets better. David Welna, NPR News, the Capitol. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
