PORTLAND -- A Portland State University professor, along Silverton astronaut Don Pettit and two mathematicians have developed a zero-gravity coffee cup.
"The low-g cup exploits an interior corner, which combined with favorable wetting, lets surface tension replace the role of gravity so you can kind of drink normally," said PSU mechanical engineering professor Mark Weislogel. "It's pretty simple. Works well for champagne too."
Pettit has tested the product in space. NASA will be using the cup during future space explorations.
Students at PSU's Maseeh School of Engineering recently completed a 40-day, non-stop series of experiments with ISS crews on fluid systems of spacecraft.

Weislogel and Pettit now hold a patent for the zero-g cup, along with mathematicians Paul Concus of the University of California, Berkeley and Robert Finn of Stanford.

Pettit, a Silverton, Ore. native, has logged more than 370 days in space during two long-term missions aboard the International Space Station.
He was also awarded NASA Engineer of the Year by the National Society of Professional Engineers/Professional Engineers in Government this year.

Parental leave and leave for family reasons
The Directive makes the framework agreement on parental leave concluded between the general cross-industry organisations compulsory. It also asks the Member States to lay down penalties for infringements of national measures taken in implementation of the Directive.
Council Directive 96/34/EC of 3 June 1996 on the framework agreement on parental leave concluded by UNICE, CEEP and the ETUC [Amending acts].
The framework agreement on parental leave concluded on 14 December 1995 between the general cross-industry organisations (UNICE, CEEP and the ETUC), annexed to the Directive, is made compulsory.
Content of the framework agreement
The framework agreement provides for:
- male and female workers to have individual entitlement to parental leave on the grounds of the birth or adoption of a child, enabling them to take care of the child for at least three months;
- the conditions of access to, and procedures for applying, parental leave to be defined by law and/or collective agreement in the Member States, subject to compliance with the minimum requirements of the agreement;
- the Member States and/or social partners to take the necessary measures to protect workers against dismissal on the grounds of an application for, or the taking of, parental leave;
- workers to have the right to return to the same job at the end of parental leave or, if that is not possible, to an equivalent or similar job consistent with their employment contract or relationship;
- the maintenance of rights acquired or in the process of being acquired by the worker on the date on which parental leave starts; at the end of the period of leave, those rights will apply;
- the Member States and/or the social partners to take the necessary measures to allow workers to take time off from work, in accordance with national legislation, collective agreements and/or practice, for unforeseeable reasons arising from a family emergency in the event of sickness or accident making the immediate presence of the worker indispensable.
More favourable provisions
The Member States may introduce more favourable provisions than those laid down in the Directive.
Implementation of the provisions of the Directive will not in any way constitute sufficient grounds to justify a reduction in the general level of protection afforded to workers in the field covered.
The Member States are to determine the range of penalties applicable for infringements of national provisions pursuant to the Directive, and are to take all the necessary steps to ensure their implementation. The penalties applied must be effective and commensurate with the infringement, and must constitute a sufficient deterrent.
The objective of the Directive is to introduce minimum requirements on parental leave and time off from work on grounds of force majeure. It aims to reconcile occupational and family obligations and to promote equal opportunities and equal treatment for men and women.
This Directive shall be repealed on 8 March 2012. It shall be replaced by Directive 2010/18/EU on the application of the revised framework agreement on parental leave concluded by BUSINESSEUROPE, UEAPME, CEEP and ETUC.

text: I just ordered new tires front and back for my 1991 K100RS as per a previous post. To expedite matters I decided to remove both wheels so when the tires arrived all I needed to do was take the wheels and tires to my local shop for mounting. I've removed the front wheel on my 1985 K100RS several times so I figured it was no big deal.WRONG The front wheel is a 17" three spoke and there is not enough clearance between the disc and wheel to get the calipers off. Clymer doesn't mention this quirk. Am I missing something or do I have to take the discs off the wheel to get the wheel off? Thanks again for all the help offered on this forum.

Eamon Briggs never bonded strongly to Palo Alto, and he didn't bond to Los Altos Hills. A sense of place wasn't something he felt he had in either city.
There wasn't a town center or other common area where kids would gather, he said. But a Palo Alto neighborhood group named for a dinosaur, which developed rather organically, eventually gave him a sense of community he cherished.
This year, that group, which brought Green Acres II fathers and sons and eventually whole families together, turns 30. Its members still meet up, and they are looking forward to their annual Christmas party.
An outgrowth of the YMCA's Y-Westerners, a father-and-son group that did activities together, the Triceratops built upon a once-a-month function, and, once the Y-Westerners group ended, it naturally continued as a weekly gathering involving seven families, said James Colton, a father who has been with the group since its beginning in 1983.
The name Triceratops was suggested by one of the dinosaur-loving 7-year-old boys, Colton said.
"It's pretty funny: We make restaurant reservations under the name," he said, noting the maitre d' sometimes stammers over the somewhat unbelievable name. Is that Mr. Triceratops?
The dads even composed a song about the Triceratops about how they come out of the primordial ooze, he said. There were weekly bike rides and hikes, longer camping trips and beach adventures, horseback rides and fishing and Stanford University football games. After three or four years, the group expanded to include the rest of their families. There was a Mother's Day brunch at Foothills Park, a Christmas party with white elephant gifts, and camping trips to Yosemite National Park.
The Triceratops have scattered, and their kids have grown. Three families remain in Palo Alto; others have departed for San Jose, Carmel, Washington and Germany.
But everyone comes to the Christmas party, which these days includes the now-grown children's own families, Colton said.
The dads still have a coffee klatch every two or three weeks, and the moms meet quarterly.
Briggs, who lives in Santa Cruz, still stays in touch with group members, and he and member Erik Merilo are good friends.
"Erik and I have always done a lot together. ... We've even taken some great trips together both in the States and overseas," he said.
The Triceratops provided a safe and supportive environment growing up, Briggs said.
"It seems to me we created a small-town family atmosphere within this group while living in the suburban sprawl of the Bay Area, which I think is pretty cool," he said.
"I was a shy kid. Making friends didn't come easily for me. I think as a father/son group, and very quickly a group of multiple families who socialized together, this made it easier for me to feel comfortable.
"I also think it was good for a kid to see the bonds between the parents as well. This group was a great outlet for the parents with camping trips, dinner parties, birthdays. Seeing your parents loosen up a bit, joke argue, cut loose a little with other adults was really a good thing, too."
Kathy Merilo, mother of Erik, recalled the group's travels throughout California and the bonds formed.
"If friendships create a sense of community, then the Triceratops gave me community. While we were camping, raising children and celebrating, we were developing friendships and a shared history. ... We got to know each other," she said.
"The Triceratops are very scattered now, with some of the older fossils, as the parents refer to themselves, moving out of Palo Alto. We still get together ... albeit not as often as we used to get together, but the bond is still present."
When the Triceratops gather this Christmas, they will toast their friendship and look once again for a triceratops cookie jar that they often joke will be under the tree but has yet to appear.
Colton said the group's longevity is in part a matter of luck, but it is also a compatible group. There is another fundamental reason the friendship has lasted, Colton said.
"All of us moved here from somewhere else, without family. Without realizing it, this became a substitute family," he said.

Re: Nomination of Guglielmo Fucci for the Langmuir Award
I would like to nominate the following paper for the Langmuir Award:
Authors: I. G. Avramidi and G. Fucci, Title: Non-perturbative Heat Kernel Asymptotics on Homogeneous Abelian Bundles, Journal: Communications in Mathematical Physics (2009), DOI: 10.1007/s00220-009-0804-6, 35 pages
This paper was submitted on October 28, 2008, accepted on January 9, 2009, and published online first on April 7, 2009, (with the Digital Object Identifier (DOI) given above); it will appear in print soon. The journal Communications in Mathematical Physics is one of the top international journal in physics, in fact, it is the number one journal in mathematical physics. This journal is published by Springer and has the impact factor of 2.282.
This paper is devoted to the development of new non-perturbative asymptotic analysis of Laplace type elliptic operators on manifolds and the study of the physical consequences in quantum field theory and quantum gravity. The paper is on the cutting edge of an important area in mathematical physics. It is a highly technical paper that is 35 pages long. It was very quickly accepted in a top journal without any revisions. Even though the paper realizes some of my old ideas and uses certain mathematical tools of differential geometry and geometric analysis that were developed in my earlier works, the major part of all technical calculations were

performed by Guglielmo. I am proud to say that Guglielmo has mastered the necessary powerful technical skills to be able to perform these cutting-edge analytical calculations.
I rate Guglielmo Fucci to be one of the brightest and methodical young people working in the field of heat kernel asymptotics, and, more generally, mathematical physics. He was the driving force in many of our joint projects and conducted a major part of necessary calculations. I strongly believe that he will continue to do work that is on the cutting edge of mathematical physics (including geometric analysis, quantum field theory and quantum gravity).
Guglielmo has an impressive research record. He already had two papers and two conference proceedings before coming to New Mexico Tech. Here at New Mexico Tech, he published 5 papers, all in top international journals like Classical and Quantum Gravity, Communications in Mathematical Physics, General Relativity and Gravitation and submitted a paper to Journal of Mathematical Physics. Guglielmo successfully defended his PhD thesis on April 3, 2009, and has got an offer for a postdoc position at Baylor University starting in August 2009.
Guglielmo has strong service record as well. He has been the graduate TA for the NMT physics department. He gave two colloquium lectures at Tech and participated in a conference organized by the Graguate Student Association. He was also a judge for the Graduate Student Association Student Research Conference. He regularly reviews papers for the journal "Mathematical Reviews" and is a member of American Mathematical Society. Last year Guglielmo won the Albert Petschek Award in Theoretical Physics of the NMT physics department.
Finally, Guglielmo Fucci is the kind of a very dynamic person, he is energetic, worldly, social and cooperative. It is a pure pleasure to discuss physics, mathematics or anything else with him. I give him my highest recommendation.

Nats recognize need for catching depth
Club doesn't want to rush prospect Norris to Majors
By Bill Ladson / MLB.com
Washington found itself in a dilemma last week after catcher Wil Nieves injured his left hamstring against the Phillies. The Nationals didn't have a veteran catcher in the system to bring up, so they acquired Jamie Burke from the Mariners.
Rizzo didn't have any intentions to rush Derek Norris, the team's Minor League Player of the Year, to the big leagues.
"It's a point of emphasis we have to make this winter," Rizzo said about the catching spot. "We have to identify good, young six-year free agents or [make Minor League trades] to get some depth in that position."

We all know that texting while driving is dangerous. However, another menace is lurking out there -- inappropriate texting between educators and students.
Recently, a school administrator commented that it seems that more and more teachers are reported for sexual relationships with students. This person wondered whether these incidents really were increasing, or if they were just getting caught more frequently.
The former may be true but the latter definitely is, too. The reason is largely due to the new ways in which we communicate. Now, more than ever, teachers are communicating with students via text messages, and it is not always about school.
Such texting often starts about school and may become playful as the teacher bonds with his or her students. Sometimes, though, these communications go far afield of appropriateness, even to the point of discussing inappropriate actions.

Crazed, Sad Little American Idol Fan Reminds Us Who's Watching
With its eighth season—begins in January!—lumbering towards us like old Randy, American Idol remains so big that it's hard to quite figure out the size and shape of it. What makes up the pop corn 'n bubblegum singing competition? And, more importantly, who's watching? Well lots of people are, but we suspect a smaller number are doing the rabid voting, making the signs, and wearing the t-shirts than ever before. It's become clear that the obsessed Idol fan demographic has, over the years, been distilled into two core groups: scary/crazy adults with lots of problems and, you know, little kids who are allowed to be a little nutty because, well, they're kids. As a visual example of a mix of the cute kid and the borderline crazy, we present you, after the jump, with a video of The Worst Idol Day Ever, as witnessed by some of its most devoted fans. We just think it's really funny. In particular the girl in the middle.

At Monday's hearing, Russellville attorney Debra Reece, representing Cody on his appeal, requested Judge William Pearson continue Cody's $500,000 bond from his original trial or set a new bond in an amount of $50,000 or less.
A jury convicted Cody, 27, on June 20 and sentenced him to 20 years in prison for the May 2012 shooting death of Lee Britton, 65.
Cody claimed Britton sexually assaulted his daughter, 5, while Cody's family stayed with Britton.
A Department of Human Services (DHS) report released after Britton's death indicated a true finding Britton had sexual contact with Cody's daughter.
Cody's mother, Tammy Cody, and father, James Cody, each testified on his behalf, telling the court Cody was not a flight risk and had strong ties to the community.
"He just wants to see his babies," James Cody said.
Before ruling on the matter, Pearson noted the rule governing bond on appeals states no release is permitted unless the court finds the defendant is not likely to flee or harass witnesses, jurors or anyone else associated with the case.
The second part of the rule states the court must also find that the appeal raises serious questions of law or fact.
While the first part of the rule was addressed, Pearson said no evidence was presented that would address the second part. Many of Cody's supporters have said vital evidence, such as the DHS finding regarding Cody's daughter, was not allowed in court and would have impacted the trial. That matter was not brought up by Reece during the hearing.

An officer with the Russellville Police Department (RPD) tried to stop a 1999 red Kia Sephia at the intersection of State Highway 7 and West 18th Street at around 1:30 p.m. Tuesday, according to a release issued by RPD.
"The vehicle did not stop and a short pursuit followed," the release stated. "The driver of the vehicle lost control and wrecked the vehicle at the 300 block of Lock and Dam Road. The driver ran on foot and was pursued by police officers. The driver was taken into custody behind EZ Mart at 3102 S. Arkansas Ave."
Once taken into custody, the suspect, identified as a 40-year-old white male from Dardanelle, allegedly admitted to swallowing 7.5 grams of methamphetamines, 20 methadone pills and an unknown number of Xanax pills. Pope County Emergency Medical Services was notified and responded to the scene, the report stated. The suspect was then transported to Saint Mary's Regional Medical Center for treatment.

Chromatography is a family of related techniques for the separation of different molecules or components within a mixture using phase equilibrium partitioning. This section describes the basic types of chromatography and their applications, their general configurations of various chromatography systems, the most common types of chromatography media and the underlying chemistry, and how to choose the right media for your application, focusing on standard protein purification methods.
Related Topics: Liquid Chromatography Principles, Column Chromatography Methods and Instrumentation
Chromatography enables the separation of compounds in a mixture by dissolving the mixture in a mobile phase and passing this mixture over a stationary phase. Molecules that interact strongly with the stationary phase (or have a greater affinity for the stationary phase than the mobile phase) migrate through the resin slowly, whereas molecules that interact weakly with the resin move through it quickly. The purpose of this separation can be analytical or preparative. The goal of analytical chromatography is to identify, and in some cases, quantify, components of complex mixtures. Preparative chromatography, in contrast, aims to isolate or purify molecules of interest for downstream uses.
The physical setup of a chromatography system and the compositions of the mobile and stationary phases depend on the characteristics of the compounds to be separated. The physicochemical parameters must be tuned so that the molecules of interest move through the stationary phase at different speeds as the mobile phase flows through it, resulting in a resolution of the original mixture into several fractions. In some cases, the fractionation is of a binary nature: compounds of interest are either retained by the stationary phase or pass through it; in other cases, chromatography results in a continuous stream of discrete fractions. Follow the links at the end of each section below to learn more about different chromatography methods and systems.
Preparative chromatography refers to the isolation or purification of target molecules. A common application of preparative chromatography is laboratory-scale protein purification for biochemical characterization; preparative chromatography is also used in the biopharmaceutical industry for process-scale protein purification.
In contrast, analytical chromatography uses the separation of molecules to identify and quantify components of mixtures. Among other applications, analytical chromatography can be used to follow the fates of substrates in chemical reactions, to test for the presence of substances of interest in complex mixtures, and to profile metabolic activities.
There are two main types of chromatography, gas chromatography (GC) and liquid chromatography (LC). Either may be used for analytical or preparative work, and both are usually performed by passing the mobile phase through a column containing the stationary phase, although liquid chromatography can use other configurations.
Gas chromatography separates molecules based on their boiling points and their interaction with the stationary phase. Mixtures to be separated are heated past the boiling of their least volatile component. They are then swept across the solid phase by an inert gas, hence the name gas chromatography. The stationary phase in gas chromatography is the inside surface of a long capillary column coated with a liquid or polymer through which the gas mixture flows. Although GC can be used for preparative purposes, it is most commonly used for analytical work.
Liquid chromatography separates compounds dissolved in a liquid mobile phase by passing the liquid over a solid stationary phase, the chromatography media, or resin, with which the compounds have differing degrees of interaction. Individual components of the mobile phase are thus more or less retarded in their passage through the chromatography media. LC is further subdivided into planar chromatography and column chromatography.
When liquid chromatography is carried out in a single plane it is referred to as planar liquid chromatography; here, the liquid mobile phase passes through a solid stationary phase such as a strip of paper (paper chromatography) or silica gel that is immobilized on a glass slide (thin-layer chromatography/TLC).
Thin-layer chromatography (TLC) is a common form of planar chromatography. TLC is a qualitative analytical chromatography method used to separate nonvolatile molecules. TLC is an improvement over the original form of planar chromatography using blotter paper because the properties of the stationary phase and solvent transport can be more tightly controlled.
Fig. 1. Thin-layer chromatography. Analyte mixture (pink spots) is spotted at the bottom of a TLC plate and the plate is placed into a solvent (cyan). The solvent travels up the TLC plate via capillary action. Analytes travel with the mobile phase and separate (red vs. blue spots) based on their interaction with the stationary and mobile phase. Analytes can then be identified based on the distance traveled in a given solvent and period of time.
For TLC, the mixture to be analyzed is spotted on the bottom of a glass plate that is coated with a thin layer of stationary phase, commonly a silica gel. The bottom of the plate is then placed into a jar or tank with a small amount of solvent at the bottom, wetting the stationary phase. As the solvent travels up the TLC plate via capillary action, it acts as the mobile phase, carrying the compounds to be analyzed with it. Separation of analytes is achieved because different analytes interact with the mobile and stationary phase to different extents, and thus travel up the TLC plate at different rates. For a given solvent and stationary phase, each compound will have a characteristic retention factor (Rf) that can be used to identify it. By applying standards of known compounds in tightly controlled spots, for example using automated instrumental application, TLC can yield semiquantitative results. This method is referred to as high-performance TLC (HPTLC). TLC is typically used for rapid monitoring of the progression of chemical reactions or inexpensive, low-tech analysis of simple or crude mixtures.
Visit the Liquid Chromatography Principles page for a description of the methods used for liquid chromatography.
Fig. 2. Column chromatography. Protein I has a weak affinity for the stationary phase and passes through the column rapidly. Protein III has high affinity for the stationary phase and moves through the column slowly; it has a high retention time. These two proteins can thus be separated based on their different retention times.
Column chromatography techniques encompass a broad range of applications based on diverse solid and liquid phase chemistries and column configurations, enabling precise analyses and the resolution of complex mixtures that would be difficult or impossible to separate by other means.
Column chromatography can be performed using gravity flow or with the aid of various types of pumps and specialized instrumentation to control the flow of the fluid phase through the column. Visit the Column Chromatography page for an overview of the different types of systems used for column chromatography.
Chromatography stationary phases, also known as chromatography media or resins, vary widely in composition. One or more media types may be used depending on the properties of the molecules of interest to be separated. Molecules can be separated based on the following physical properties (each using different methods):
Some chromatography media are applicable to a broad range of separations, whereas other media are designed for a limited application to the separation of a unique class of molecules, for example, antibodies. Follow the links above to learn more about each type of chromatography method, or visit the Types of Chromatography page for an overview.

Various voxel engine ramblingsWednesday, January 30th, 2013
I have outed myself previously as not a big Minecraft fan, so take everything in this post with a grain of salt (as I obviously don't really understand that genre).
Anyways… recently this sub-reddit for open-source games was pointed out in our forums, and while it isn't really as lively as others (for example the Linux gaming one) it pointed out an new project called Iceball:
|Pre-alpha Iceball screenshot
Seemingly made by people not happy with the recent commercialization of Ace of Spades, it's an all FOSS remake, those early development you can follow here (or on their Github page).
Now maybe the graphics are lacking on purpose (see disclaimer above), but I couldn't help to think: why for f***'s sake did they have to reinvent the wheel with their own engine instead of using for example Terasology:
Or Minetest, or the Ardorcraft API for that matter???
Ahh well, at least it made me aware that Terasology is still very much under development, and with its focus on DungeonKeeper & Dwarf-Fortress elements, it might actually become a game I would play (and doesn't make my eyes bleed :p ).
Speaking of which… the guy behind AgentKeeper released yet another nice video and graphics are constantly further improved as seen here.

Astros sign Cassel with eyes on Prior
Wade makes offer to former Cubs righty; Benson also in mix
By Alyson Footer / MLB.com
Wade recently made an offer to former Cubs right-hander Mark Prior, who is rehabbing from shoulder surgery and probably won't be ready to pitch until sometime in May. That hasn't slowed the steady line of suitors for the 27-year-old, and count the Astros as one of nearly a dozen teams who have expressed interest.
"The feedback we're getting from [agent] John Boggs is there are multiple teams involved [in the bidding]," Wade said. "He's outlined the framework for what it would take. I don't know that it's going to move at any pace at this point.
"He's not even throwing at this stage. We get some sense he'll be ready sometime late in May. Any kind of proposal would reflect that level of uncertainty. Hopefully, we'll have five starters hitting on all cylinders, but it's always good to have other options you can turn to."
Wade also has scouts in Phoenix to watch Kris Benson throw. Benson is working out in front of several teams with hopes of making a comeback after missing the 2007 season due to shoulder surgery. Last month, the Orioles paid Benson a $500,000 buyout rather than exercise a $7.5 million option.
"We have somebody seeing him," Wade said. "We talked about it, and we're going to get one of our guys out there to watch."
Wade also signed 27-year-old right-hander Jack Cassel to a Major League contract worth $400,000 and added him to the 40-man roster. The former Padres farmhand made 27 appearances for Triple-A Portland this year, including 24 starts and three complete games, and finished 7-14 with a 3.91 ERA.
Cassel was called up to the Padres in September and compiled a 1-1 record and a 3.97 ERA over six games, including four starts.
"He's a sinkerball guy, he pounds the strike zone," Wade said. "He had an opportunity in September and pitched well for them. He has an opportunity to come into a setting where we're inviting competition, and we'll see where his skills go. We had a couple of clubs interested in signing him, and he viewed our opportunity as favorable."
Wade has also had conversations with Jon Lieber, but Wade said he doesn't know if it will go anywhere.
As for the blockbuster deals that have dominated the Astros' offseason, Wade is probably done dealing.
"I don't see us doing anything major," he said. "The pieces that we felt were available to be traded, we're finished with. I don't see us doing anything significant on the trade front, but there's still some free-agent pitching there. We also still have a couple of open issues on the bench. We're moving slower in that respect."

For those interested:
Last week, someone registered an account on some french gaming forums and released new, unofficial patches for Thief, Thief 2, and System Shock 2. It allows those games to run on modern hardware and operating systems, and brings all sorts of new bells and whistles to the game editor.
I'd describe what the patch is capable of, but I'll let this screen shot by TTLG forum user SlipTip do the talking:
Yes, this is a 10+ year old game engine,those are dynamic shadows, and each surface has it's own 2400 x 2400 texture! Granted, an entire level like this would melt most people's graphic cards, but just being able to -make- it is an achievement! (EDIT TO CLARIFY: The default game does NOT look like that. This is a custom-built room and textures. This is showing that the Dark engine is now capable of, not what you'll see if you get the patch. The patch does not come with any new textures or meshes)
Links here: http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=140085
That post also has the original demos of both games ported over to the updated engine if you wanna give thieving or shocking systems a try.

Does anyone know the general turn sound time to purchase and mount tires at the rally? Also do the people who mount and balance perform quality service?
Does anyone know the general turn sound time to purchase and mount tires at the rally? Also do the people who mount and balance perform quality service?
It all depends on when you take the wheel to them. Most take their wheel and leave it while they do other things.
Installation is done by a dealer generally. They do run out of tires sometimes so get there early.

You didn't mention what bike you're putting the tire on. The reason I ask is that a few years ago a friend with a /6 got stuck because the tire guys didn't have a tire in his size.
As far as I can see, they all do a good job of mounting and balancing.
So if you are riding an older bike, you might want to check with the tire vendors to make sure they'll have a tire in your size. go through the Rally Chair for vendors to find out who will be there selling tires.
The Rally will have shipping services, usually UPS/FedX on site before and after rally. You could ship tires, mount'em yourself. The tire folks at rallies are stressed indeed and very busy, so EARLY is a good idea. They also can get your tires in, if not on hand, IF you're early and give'
em time. Wheels OFF bike is always a good idea, speeds the process. They do it all, though, your money. Randy
My friends from No Mar are suppose to be there. I would suggest contacting them and pre order your tires so they have them on hand. Keeps the stress level very low!

Angels reach deal with top pick Newcomb
By Matthew DeFranks / MLB.com
ANAHEIM -- The Angels agreed to terms Friday with first-round Draft pick Sean Newcomb, just hours before the deadline to do so.
Newcomb, the 15th overall selection, signed for $2,518,400, more than the recommended $2,475,600 for his slot. The bonus was first reported by the Los Angeles Times.
"We're elated that we were able to select him, get him signed and very excited about getting him in uniform," scouting director Ric Wilson said.
Newcomb, who was a junior at the University of Hartford, went 8-2 with a 1.25 ERA -- the seventh-best ERA in the NCAA -- in 14 starts as batters hit just .162 against him. He immediately becomes one of the top prospects in the Halos' farm system.
Wilson said Newcomb would probably start in rookie ball in Arizona but the Angels' top priority is to monitor his workload.
"It's important just to get him out and see what our system's like and hear from different guys in the organization," Wilson said.
General manager Jerry Dipoto has said that Newcomb would only throw about 30 innings the remainder of this season, regardless of when he signed. He threw 93 1/3 innings during his college season.
Newcomb, a 6-foot-5, 240-pounder originally from Middleboro, Mass., has a mid-90s fastball to go along with a curveball, slider and changeup.
One of three unsigned first-rounders entering Friday, Newcomb signed for less money than the Giants' Tyler Beede above him ($2,613,200) and Diamondbacks selection Touki Toussaint below him ($2,700,000).
Newcomb's bonus represented all the money the Angels had remaining in their Draft allotment, and the club avoided any tax or loss of future picks. The Halos had as much as $2,807,100 to spend on Newcomb without losing a first-round pick, though a 75 percent tax would have applied.
Newcomb was Los Angeles' first first-round selection since 2011, when first baseman C.J. Cron was selected with the No. 17 overall pick. The Angels lost their first-round picks in 2012 and '13 when they signed Albert Pujols and Josh Hamilton in respective offseasons.

text: No, that's exactly the point. A lot of countries have federal subdivisions, with different laws, customs, and traditions (from the UK to Brazil, Russia, India, etc). Hell, some even have different official languages (Canada, Belgium: just two examples). Even nominally unitary nations like France or China have wildly different communities living in the same country. The US is not alone, or even peculiar, in this: it's not the largest, the most populous, or even the most diverse federal country in the world. Generally speaking, there is no more difference between California and Ohio than between Punjab and Kerala, Bavaria and Brandenburg, Sicily and Trentino. That's the point I was trying to make.

What are primitive (member) types initialized as in C++?
My integral members seem consistently to initialize to zero, float/double members often initialize the same, but can occasionally end-up with garbage, causing many headaches.
Some sources mention primitives are initialized to 0, yet elsewhere I've heard that the entire class is first memset to 0 (definitely not the same thing...)
So can anyone tell me the definitive list of initialization values for each primitive type?
Thanks in advance.

text: Quick question guys. I plan on getting a 2nd Yonex racquet. I'm currently looking at the RQiS Tour (RQT) or the RDiS 200 (RD2). I was hoping you could help me choose. My current racquet is the RQiS XL 95 and I put 6 grams at the 3&9. RQiS Tour A bit skeptic about the RQT, because of the weight. When I lead up my stick to 11.9 ounces, my shoulder started acting again. Also, I may put 3 grams to the 3&9 if I get the RQT, and I'm not sure that's enough to give me the plow I need. Anything more and I maybe booking more appointments to the doctor. There's also the tapered beam. I know it's supposed to give me torsional stability and I'm pretty sure I'd have to add more lead to my current stick if it didn't have the same tapered beam, but I also tend to frame shots with the smaller spin window. Speaking of spin, I just love the 16x18 pattern of my own stick and the spin I get with it. The pattern also allows me to go full poly. I'm pretty sure I'll get the same ridiculous spin on the RQT or even more! Another good thing about the RQT is the price! And it's also one of the most beautiful racquets in the world. I could only imagine how black/red looks with the excellent glossy paint finish of Yonex. RDiS 200 This may be a safer pick of the two. About 11.7 ounces, it only needs a little tweaking to get to my desired specs. However.... It's 98 inches. I've used 95 inchers all my tennis life and I'm perfectly happy with it. This may sound stupid, but I always thought as far as racquets you go for the smallest and the heaviest you can. Since I've never used a larger headsize I don't really know what part of my game I'd lose by going slightly larger. There's also the price. It's still expensive! Can you guys compare the two sticks once leaded to your specs? Both racquets are very similar already yet has subtle differences. The RD2 has a larger headsize but I'm sure the RQT has more spin potential. Leaded up to the same weight, I can see the RQT getting more pop from the baseline too.

As you Solstace Riders know there was a very good possibility that I was going to take one in the rear from good old Indiana University. Well I am, without lube or the decency of a reach-around. I talked to the head of the choral department yesterday and he said that I would not be released from the performance that falls on the same day as the Track Day. I tried my best, and did about everything short of pulling a knife, but it just isn't going to happen. I'm going to find out if I can get a refund or not. Oh and here's the kicker, for this damn 1.5 hour symphony, the choir sings for the last 15 minutes. Yep I tried to get to be able to show up last minute for the performance, and they wouldn't go for that one either. It is not a happy day here in beautiful Southern Indiana.
But life will go on, and to help with the healing, I'm open to suggestions from you, my friends on the forum as to how I can be a holy terror during the performance and rehearsal process. I was thinking game boy during the performance, maybe I'll add some choreography, or just sing really off key really loud. What think you?

'Internet Fame' Now an Academic Subject
You know one thing that schools should really be teaching our kids these days, for the good of the world? How to get "Internet famous." If only...oh hey, there is a class for that already!
This is what college-aged kids are lacking: internet fame. Luckily Parsons New School has a real live class that will guide them down the path to becoming the next Julia Allison. Whee! This is what all those New School protesters were fighting for. The right to get commented upon. Current made this little newsy video about the class, gleaning some insights from esteemed professor Jamiedubs.com, who, btw, urges you: "Mad props if you register a Current account and vote us up on their site. Further props for retweets, reblogs, re-edits, remixes, reposts, crossposts, sideposts, you name it. That's what we're all about baby."
May this post offer them spiritual fulfillment. Mmm, smell it. Spiritual fulfillment!

06 outback V advice
Buddy of mine is looking at a 06 outback V. I have an 06LS and no knowledge of this boat, He wants to surf, and understands a budget. Anyone have one, surfed one, boarded one. Any knowledge or opinion is appreciated.
Thanks.06 Mobius LS
I had an 08 OBV. Same hull and basically same boat. We filled the center bag and threw a 750 in the port locker and had fun surfing. A shorter wave and not as tall as the Mojo, but that's to be expected. Worked great for wakeboarding, water skiing and even recreational slalom. Great all around boat, IMO.
Canuckle head has his OBV loaded with a ton (literally) more ballast for surfing. Might search some of his posts for some more info.
I have an 08 OBV also- I'm able to free surf with stock ballast and a few heavy guys on the boat. Board wake is bigger than I need- I've pulled some proficient wakeboarders that are able to do tricks that I'm pretty sure would leave me paralyzed if I attempted them. That year OBV will be lighter than the newer OBV which is a plus for towing and it also makes as nice of a ski wake as a V drive can make. I have a dedicated closed bow slalom course boat but I'm happy to free ski behind the OBV when I get a chance. The seating is not as deep and comfortable as the new generation OBV and it has a lower freeboard.2008 OBV
2001 Ski Nautique closed bow

Skiyaker is spot on in his assessment. You can create a pretty decent wave with some bags and a few extra people on board that's for sure. What I like best about my boat is that it can do it all (wake, surf & slalom) at better than average. What I don't like is the lack of room when it's sacked out for wake surfing and the low freeboard.2011 President's Trophy - Check

I have an 06 OBV and I've free surfed with only stock ballast and the driver in the boat. When we add some big friends placed right I think the surf wave is pretty decent (although I dont have a lot to compare it to) Same goes for the wakeboard wake, with a little bit of weight I really like it, and the ski wake is great for a v-drive. Its really a great all-around boat'06 Outback V

text: Well, I made a booboo a while back and dented up the side of my 08 Chevy Silverados truckbed. Yesterday I located a new bed for it and bought it - and now have an extra! Id like to turn that truck bed into a trailer for hauling motorcycles, similar to the ole hack-off-the-back-of-the-truck style trailer, but a bit nicer. I will utilize the original tail lights as, well, tail lights, as well as leave the bumper and tailgate on. 2 roll-in chocks will be installed in the bed along with LED white lighting. 110v, 12v and USB power ports in the bed. 4-6 foot tongue length from front wall of bed to hitch, decked with diamondplate or similar. Weatherguard toolbox chest installed on the decking closest to the bed which will house 2 Optima Red Top batteries along with a 110v inverter. In front of the toolbox will be a spot for 4 5 gallon "utility" jugs, capable of being locked in place. Id like to install a set of airbags to help get the bed lower to the ground for loading/unloading. Not sure if I can utilize a helper-bag type setup or will need to get more custom here. If I run air I will also have a 12v compressor and holding tank in the front toolbox. As far as the frame, I'm thinking 2x4 box tubing, double height on the tongue area and the necessary bracing. After the frame is done it will be powdercoated. Im wanting to run 8 lug wheels, matching the Duramax, so Im not sure if a trailer specific axle with 8 lug outers is the best way, or if I should find a Silverado axle and leafs to run. Sooo..... what am I forgetting, what tips can you offer, etc etc. Im going to start building this in a week or so, and Ill start a build thread here to document the progress. Thanks!

Published by Knopf
This is a true classic. A standing rib roast used to be the Sunday dinner, often with roasted vegetables and Yorkshire pudding, but it is rarely served anymore. This is partly because families don't gather for a big weekend meal the way that they did when I was a child, partly because we don't eat red meat the way we once did and partly because there are no corner butchers showcasing prime meats in their windows. If you have never cooked this traditional meal, this is the time to give it a try.

- 5 stalks celery
- 3 large onions, cut crosswise into 1-inch-thick rings
- 3 large carrots, cut into ¼-inch-thick sticks
- 6 cloves peeled garlic
- 1 bay leaf
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 5-pound prime beef rib roast, trimmed of excess fat
- Coarse salt and coarse black pepper
- Gratin Potato (recipe follows)
- 2 tablespoons softened butter
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh chervil
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh chives
- 4 cups heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Roasted Garlic Purée
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh thyme
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh tarragon
- Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 6 large Idaho potatoes
- 4 cups grated Gruyère cheese
- ½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Roast Prime Rib:
Preheat the oven to 500 degrees.
Place the celery, onions, and carrots in the bottom of a roasting pan. Stir in the garlic, bay leaf, and olive oil, stirring until the vegetables are nicely coated.
Generously season the roast with salt and pepper and place it on top of the seasoned vegetables. Place in the preheated oven and roast for 15 minutes, or just until the meat is beginning to brown.
Lower the heat to 425 degrees and continue roasting for 30 minutes (or perhaps a bit longer), or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 120 degrees for rare.
Remove from the oven and allow the meat to rest for 15 minutes. Remove and discard the bay leaf.
Carve the meat at the table and serve with a wedge of Gratin Potato and the roasted vegetables.
Gratin Potato:
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
Lightly coat a 10-inch-oval casserole dish with the softened butter. Set aside.
Combine the chervil, thyme, tarragon, and chives in a small bowl. Set aside.
Combine the cream and garlic purée with salt and pepper to taste in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Bring the mixture to a boil and immediately remove from the heat. Keep warm.
Peel the potatoes and cut them lengthwise into ¼-inch-thick slices on a mandoline or Japanese vegetable slicer. Ladle ½ cup of the warm cream mixture into the bottom of the prepared casserole.
Working quickly, make a ring of slightly overlapping potato slices around the perimeter of the prepared casserole. Continue making slightly overlapping potato rings until the bottom of the dish is entirely covered with potatoes. Lightly season the top with salt and pepper.
Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the reserved herb mixture over the seasoning.
Using 1 cup of the grated Gruyère, make a thin layer of cheese over the potatoes. Ladle 1 cup of cream over all of it.
Continue making layers of potatoes, seasoning, herbs, cheese, and the cream mixture until you have made 3 additional layers. Finish with a layer of Parmesan.
Cover the entire casserole with aluminum foil and place in the preheated oven. Bake, covered, for 1 hour, or until a toothpick is easily inserted into the center.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
Remove the gratin from the oven and allow to rest for 15 minutes to firm up before cutting into serving pieces.

1. Re: Java Update Problem with Forms 11gMichael Ferrante-Oracle Nov 9, 2012 1:46 PM (in response to 864019)You didn't mention which Forms version you are using. The only version currently supported to use Java7 is 184.108.40.206. As for the wanring abou which version to use, that is determined by your own configuration. Take a look at the formsweb.cfg. It is in this file where you set the value of the JRE which you want your application to use. My current recommendation is that where ever possible, JRE7 should be uninstalled until it has been certified for use. Although unrelated to what you are seeing, I also recommend uninstalling ALL installed JREs which you are not using. For example, older versions.
2. Re: Java Update Problem with Forms 11gCarlos Cortez Nov 10, 2012 12:24 AM (in response to 864019)Your installation is certified with jdk 1.7 only if you are using Forms 11g 22.214.171.124 in combination with Weblogic 10.3.6 otherwise it's not certified with jdk 1.7
3. Re: Java Update Problem with Forms 11g864019 Nov 12, 2012 4:57 AM (in response to Carlos Cortez)Thanks for your response.
I unable to understand Certification xls.
I use Forms [32 Bit] Version 220.127.116.11.0 (Production) and Weblogic 10.3.4.
Is Java 1.7 is certified for this version of Forms???????
4. Re: Java Update Problem with Forms 11gCarlos Cortez Nov 12, 2012 5:17 AM (in response to 864019)Hi,1 person found this helpful
The matrix certification shows you the versions of Forms under the column "Version Supported" from there you can find information like OS, JDK etc.
I unable to understand Certification xls. I use Forms [32 Bit] Version 126.96.36.199.0 (Production) and Weblogic 10.3.4.
In your case there is not an installation type like "ALL" for 22.214.171.124 but you can use the information from 18.104.22.168 as you can see a "+" symbol, so look for the column's label with "JDK Vendor Version* 11gR1 (22.214.171.124)" and line with "ALL" and you willl see that Forms's version 220.127.116.11 is certificated with a Oracle JDK 1.6.0_21+
Not it is not, Java 1.7 is only certificated with Forms 126.96.36.199 as you can see in the line with "11gR1 (22.214.171.124+)" under the column "Version Supported" in combination with column's label "JDK Vendor Version* 11gR1 (220.127.116.11)"
Is Java 1.7 is certified for this version of Forms???????
Hope this helps you :)
5. Re: Java Update Problem with Forms 11g864019 Nov 15, 2012 12:52 PM (in response to Carlos Cortez)I am bit confused here.
Our client machine have JRE 1.7 update 9 and Application Server has JDK 1.6 update 21.
In this Case as per Certification matrix, Forms 126.96.36.199 should be run on the Client machine as Client has JRE 1.7 update 9
But Our users(Client) machines the Forms Application getting hang and End Users access Forms Application using Internet Browser 8.

6. Re: Java Update Problem with Forms 11gMichael Ferrante-Oracle Nov 15, 2012 4:38 PM (in response to 864019)The server side java version has nothing to do with the client side java version. The botom line is that Java 7 on the client is NOT certified for use with any Forms version except 220.127.116.11, at this time. If you have Java 7 installed on the client, I would recommend uninstalling it and installing 1.6.0_37. We are hoping for new certifications with Java 7 soon, however they will likely apply to newer releases and not older ones.1 person found this helpful
7. Re: Java Update Problem with Forms 11guser1111215 Nov 15, 2012 6:10 PM (in response to 864019)hello,
we face this problem before. we are using forms 11gR2.
in our case i updated the jdk 1.6_35 from the application server and installed the weblogic server 10.3.5.
now we dont problem with 1.7 or latest version of JRE installed in all clients.
but dont know it if it works on your version.
But as Mr. Michale said oracle not yet certified this. just uninstall the 1.7 version and prevent them to update.

Bond set for Scottsdale naked carjacking suspectPosted: Updated:
Bail has been set at $100,000 for a man Scottsdale police said stole a vehicle and then stripped down naked before trying to steal another car.
A Maricopa County Superior Court judge set the cash-only bond for John Brigham, 45, of Scottsdale, on Thursday.
Scottsdale police said Brigham was suspected of being involved in a serious injury collision at Hayden and Via De Venture. Police said they believe he then took off his clothes and began jumping on vehicles in the intersection before carjacking a vehicle headed northbound on Hayden Road.
Police said they believe he was involved in another serious injury collision involving four vehicles at 8900 E. Shea Blvd. He then unsuccessfully attempted to carjack two more vehicles before patrol officers were able to detain him, according to police.
Multiple victims were transported to Valley hospitals for treatment and all have been determined to have non-life-threatening injuries, according to authorities.
In all, seven people were injured, including Brigham.
The suspect was taken to a local hospital for evaluation and has not yet been booked into Scottsdale City Jail.
Police said they have not determined what caused Brigham's violent behavior and are awaiting blood screening results to determine if any illicit drug was a factor.
According to the police report, Brigham faces six counts of endangerment, three counts of attempted robbery, two counts of aggravated assault, two counts of leaving the scene of a crash, two counts of driving under the influence, one count of robbery and one count of vehicle theft.

Often wrong.....never in doubt.
don't trust black tape only. my recommendation is to use thick rubber, then tape that down. radiator hose slit in half works well to cover critical positive connection.
don't loose all your work and super nice bike to an electrical fire. which could consume battery and rest of bike. lithium batteries discharge at extremely high rates. easily equal to an Arc welder.

very nice bike , is it me or is the swing arm short ?,envy you,its raining here in s/w ontario canada, good luck Jimmy
Here's my 74 R60/6. I got her 2 summers ago, from a guy in Ohio. Supposedly a barn find that he restored in 2004. He did a great job, except he couldn't get it to stop pinging. I think that's why he sold it. I spent the first summer working on that and getting used to riding again after a 20 year hiatus. I've been lurking here since then.
Now I'm having fun working on it myself. Just had the heads done by Ted Porter and amazed myself when it started right up, after I put it all back together. Next up: the slide carbs. Tried to sync them last weekend, and there is something funny going on there...... Also just scored some period Wixom side cases w/o mounts on ebay, so have to design/build something to hang those.
Any same vintage wrenchers out there in the NYC metro area?
not sure where you are located, but there are a few of us airheads in the Northern Westchester, western CT area. Some of them are even good wrenches! (I myself am not included in that statement, but i am getting better)

Enjoying the ride, but always on the alert for a rally.......
Hi Scott! I'm near Nyack, on the west side of the TZ bridge. Do you guys ever get together for wrenching or oil changes? I would love to meet up sometime. PM me if you would!
Snow today, but yesterday, golden sunshine...
My dream bike since I was 16. Love to ride it, clean it, look at it...

Londoners are often singularly skeptical toward corporate sponsorship, as the latest fight over McDonald's shows.
Maybe hamburgers and athletics don't go together after all. While global fast food empire McDonald's has just built its largest outlet ever in London's Olympic Park, even the International Olympic Committee is now questioning whether the company makes a suitable sponsor for the world's largest sporting event. Interviewed in the Financial Times this past weekend, IOC president Jacques Rogge admitted there was a "question mark" over the courting of unhealthy fast food purveyors as Olympic sponsors, acknowledging public unease at how rare it feels nowadays to view a major sporting event without seeing adverts for junk plastered all over it.
Rogge's comments come on the back of a McDonald's-bashing motion recently passed in the London Assembly, the British capital's main governing body. Proposed by Green Party leader Jenny Jones – who gained record votes to become London's third choice for mayor in May – the motion called for a ban on sporting sponsors that are linked to childhood obesity. The motion's supporters pointed out that while TV ads for unhealthy food aimed at children are forbidden in Britain, daytime Olympic coverage full of McDonald's and Coca-Cola logos could break this ban via the back door.
As advertising is not permitted inside competition venues, however, this shouldn't actually happen, while the motion's influence is limited anyway – despite slightly misleading coverage by Time, the London Assembly lacks real power to implement what it proposes.
The move does still highlight the often singularly skeptical attitude to corporate sponsorship in Britain. Until recently, private money always played second fiddle to government cash in underwriting arts and culture, and there is more public ambivalence in the U.K. about courting big business cash than in America. This ambivalence sometimes bubbles up into protest and damaging publicity. Last weekend, the Tate Modern, a participant in London's Cultural Olympiad, came under fire for its relationship with British Petroleum when protesters carried a 16-meter long, half ton wind turbine blade into the gallery's vast entrance hall and left it as a gift.
McDonald's has also learned the hard way that Britain can be a hostile environment for corporate promotion. Back in the '90s, the company got involved in the worst PR disaster in its history here when it sued environmental protesters during the notorious McLibel Case and found its working practices and healthy eating claims subjected to prolonged, excruciating scrutiny.
There is evidence that this sort of scrutiny is shaping McDonald's working practices, at least while the Games spotlight is upon them. Caving to pressure from the London Olympic Committee, the company agreed this spring to use only British chicken at its four Olympic Park outlets. Likewise the outlets themselves – including one monster 1,500-seater – will use 75 percent recyclable materials and will convert their no doubt plentiful supplies of used cooking oil into Biodiesel.
This is encouraging, though less so when you remember that Olympic spectators will have no other food choices unless they choose to leave the Olympic Park. Given that organizers are recommending ticket holders arrive two and a half hours before events to clear airport style security (and that they're not allowed to bring in food), this doesn't sound like a valid option. Heavy-handed or not, there's no denying that the funds brought in by this sort of exclusive sponsorship deal are substantial. But when criticism comes even from Olympic partners – I suspect angry phone calls are now being exchanged between McDonald's and the IOC – the public attention such deals earn sponsors may increasingly taste bittersweet.

You can help families in Alabama get back on their feet
Last year, a series of destructive tornadoes ripped through the American South, devastating families and communities. This year, World Vision is organizing a series of mission trips to come alongside survivors as they continue to recover and rebuild. Laura Reinhardt reports on one mother in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, who has already seen the compassion and generosity of others firsthand.
* * *
"To me right now, it's just, I still see the image of my house being there. I can't believe what happened to us."
That was what Bonfilia Maldonado, 26, said to me the first time I met her just a couple of days after the deadly tornadoes that tore across parts of Alabama, including the city of Tuscaloosa, in April 2011.
She was wandering through the rubble of her family's home with two of her three children. "We just had painted my little girl's room," she said.
A tear streamed down her face as she talked about her family's needs. Her 2-year-old, Maria Guadalupe, reached out and wiped away the tear.
The tornado not only wiped out Bonfilia's home, but also her job. Thankfully, her husband, Miguel -- who had recently been laid off from his job with a roofing company -- was able to get it back in the tornado's aftermath.
Still, Bonfilia didn't know what the future held for her family. Her 5-year-old son, Christian, just couldn't understand why they couldn't go back to their home.
To help him understand, she brought him to their wrecked trailer.
"We don't know what to explain to him, but we had to show him where we used to live…we just tell him that we don't have a home right now."
Bonfilia Maldonado, 26, holds her daughter, Maria Guadalupe, 2, as she surveys the ruins of her family's home in April 2011. (Photo: Laura Reinhardt/World Vision).
A happier encounter
Fast-forward to July 2011. With the help of our corporate donors, World Vision distributed backpacks, books, shoes, and games to tornado-affected children in the community of Holt, Alabama, a low-income unincorporated area just east of Tuscaloosa. My co-worker and I were interviewing someone when Bonfilia walked by with her family and greeted us. Her children carried the backpacks, shoes, games, and books they had just gotten at the event.
She explained that because we had told her story, her family's plight was brought to the attention of her dentist, who rallied a team to help the family. They provided clothing and household supplies the family had lost in the storm -- and even painted the children's rooms inside the new trailer they got with their FEMA money.
In April of last year, Bonfillia had questioned whether or not to re-establish her family in the same location. Now, she said: "I know I might be crazy that I parked my trailer here at the same spot, but this is my place. This is my home."
All around her, people were beginning their own rebuilding process. Seeing the volunteers moved Bonfilia.
"Knowing that there are hundreds, if not thousands [of people] putting this together," said Bonfilia, "it means just a lot…people don't know us. They're reaching out to us and helping us."
World Vision plans to remain in Tuscaloosa through April 2013, continuing to support the city's recovery. The long-term plan includes three week-long World Vision missions trips in October, November, and December of this year, which will give teams of volunteers a chance to work alongside families and community organizations to reconstruct homes.
By coming along on a World Vision mission trip to Tuscaloosa, you can also be a part of the rebuilding efforts and help families like Bonfilia's to get back on their feet again.
