"View on the Ohio. June, 1833"
Watercolor, unsigned

"View on the Tennessee--June, 1833 / Tombecbee?"
A finished version of the same scene
The watercolor on the left is among those sketches that Dr. Bird would later revisit and "revise." The finished version appears on the right. Almost illegible on the sketch are Dr. Bird's extremely faint pencilled annotations on the surface of the work itself--"white"; "light [word illegible]"; "Dark"; "light". Their presence indicates that he intended to revisit this sketch at a later date; and, as the finished version indicates, he did revisit it. By the time he did so, however, Dr. Bird found his own handwriting either illegible or so faint that he himself could not read it. Thus he added to the original title ("View on the Tennessee--June, 1833") a query to himself, clearly written at another time and with another pencil, "Tombecbee?" He was no longer sure if he had sketched the scene in Tennessee or Alabama. In June of 1833, Dr. Bird was travelling in Tennessee, going from Memphis to Nashville; his original title appears to be correct.
"Mammoth Cave"

"The old Cabin (Gatewood's house) at the Mammoth Cave. October,
1835 ('35 + '53)"
Watercolor, unsigned
Courtesy of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Montgomery
Unlike the above "View on the Tennessee," this is one of those paintings where only one version survives, but a double date ("'35 + '53") suggests "revision" during the period towards the end of Dr. Bird's life when he was also conducting photographic experiments and revising Nick of the Woods, as well. The impact on his literary and artistic work of these experiments is obviously the major question that these newly revealed works in both photography and painting raise.
"Among the Knobs, near the Mammoth Cave. June, 1833"
Watercolor, unsigned
Courtesy of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Montgomery
The Mammoth Cave is still the monarch of caves: none that have ever been measured can at all compare with it, even in extent; in grandeur, in wild, solemn, severe, unadorned majesty, it stands entirely alone. "It has no brother, it is like no brother."
--from Robert Montgomery Bird, "The Mammoth Cave," in Peter Pilgrim: or A Rambler's Recollections, 2 vols. (Philadelphia: Lea & Blanchard, 1838), 2:65-66.

Northern Guilford football coach Johnny Roscoe to retire
Northern Guilford football coach Johnny Roscoe to retire
Head Coach Johnny Roscoe, who has won three straight NCHSAA Division 3AA football titles at Northern Guilford High School, is retiring.
Roscoe plans to spend the next phase of his life on his South Carolina farm, said Brian Thomas, Northern Guilford athletic director.
Thomas said he hopes to hire a replacement within the next month.
Roscoe was the only football coach in the Nighthawks' short history as a school. It opened in 2008.
Roscoe went 65-6 during his tenure, and the team will go the fall trying to win its 30th straight game. The current 29-game winning streak is the longest across all the NCHSAA.

Bring positive change to today's critical social problems—hunger, poverty, and marginalization.
The Middlebury Institute Master of Public Administration (MPA) prepares you to lead project teams, specialized departments, or development organizations that work for social change, including NGOs, governments, and UN agencies around the world.
The MPA and International Policy and Development programs share a common faculty and curriculum. This gives you the flexibility to explore both areas of study and then choose one at the start of your final semester. These separate but related skill sets reflect real-world collaboration and make for a more effective model of communication between policy development and practice.
The MPA program includes core course work, optional areas of specialization, and a professional practicum. Improving language and intercultural competence is central to all degree programs at the Institute, and MPA students take courses taught in their chosen language of study. Students can choose to take additional classes to further develop their intercultural competence.

Yitzhak Shamir, Israel's seventh Prime Minister, was better known for what he did not do than for the actions he took. For example he was responsible for Israel's policy of restraint during the Gulf War in 1991. A more controversial step was his blocking of the London Agreement, the unofficial agreement signed by his Foreign Minister, Shimon Peres, and King Hussein in London in 1987. Shamir claimed that it was made without his knowledge, and certainly without his approval.
When Mr. Shamir passed away last Saturday, the Israel State Archives decided to put out a short publication on the ISA website. Although we knew that Mr. Shamir was seriously ill, we had not made preparations for this event. The files on his activity as Foreign Minister and Prime Minister had not yet been declassified, but it took no more than a day for my colleagues to chose and scan some interesting documents. They were then declassified and the publication was ready.
Several of the documents referred to the London Agreement and a Hebrew copy was found, but the English original was not in the Foreign Ministry files. According to Peres, who published the text in his autobiography, he read the agreement to Shamir on his return but refused to leave it with the Prime Minister for fear of leaks. I finally located an old photocopy in a file from Shamir's office, and the agreement is now available for the first time in Hebrew and English on our website.
Perhaps future researchers will find the original; we can only speculate what might have happened if Shamir had approved the agreement….

Welcome to Southeastern Handicapped Services
SHS is an integrated workshop that helps the handicapped and disadvantaged through jobs ranging from sales, verifying, clerical, data entry, training, and collections to packaging and/or shipping.
Since 1998 we have employed many disabled and/or disadvantaged employees in our integrated workshop, helping them to earn wages and have independence. We are not a charity, we are a for-profit business that sells products nationwide. Our commitment here at SHS is to strive in creating more job opportunities for the handicapped and disadvantaged.
For too long, to many disabled persons have been handicapped not by disabilities of nature or accident, but by people at the workplace who are reluctant to let them work because of a general ignorance about what disabled people can do and how colleagues may react. Indeed, attitude is the major barrier. But hiring people with disabilities must become more than just a catchy phrase, more than just a one-month public relations focus. It must be the beginning of an enlightened attitude that can pay rich benefits to our community. More than two-thirds of all disabled adults are of working age and are not working!
To many businesses and corporations say to disabled people: We don't think you can work. And our tax dollars are paid to support the discrimination we exhibit toward hiring people with disabilities. Billions of dollars in federal, state, county, city and private money are spent on disability related expenditures each year: medical care, workman's compensation and rehabilitation service. We spend 10 times as much on keeping disabled people dependent tax users for every $1 we spend on helping them get back into the work force and become self-sufficient taxpayers.
Employment, self-reliance and economic independence are essential to the self-esteem and self-respect of all people, including those with disabilities. Through your continued support about 50% of our sales dollars goes to pay salaries and benefits for our employees.
All new employees are given paid training by managers with years of experience in dealing with the handicapped and disadvantaged. Training continues thereafter to help perfect their product knowledge.
We have several products to choose from. A description of our products can be found on the products page.
We appreciate greatly your kindness and continued support to our employees by purchasing products.

text: I was curious, about how shaders (Like Q3 has) actualy work? I had an idea for something similar, but im not sure if it will work. Is there a way (Using blending or multitextureing, or both) that you can progressivly "fade out" one texture, and "fade in" another. Making it so the second texture is more and more visable through the other as time goes on? I think that would make a pretty decent shader effect. Plus it could also be used for some animated texture techniques i have been think about. So is there a way to do something like that?

Laie, HAWAII – The Polynesian Cultural Center (PCC) will now be a perpetual place of honor for the football champions of Polynesia as the permanent home of the new Polynesian Football Hall of Fame. The venue recognizing the sport's greatest players, coaches and contributors from Polynesia is scheduled to open in January 2015.
The announcement was made at a press conference this past Friday attended by inductees of the Polynesian Football Hall of Fame's inaugural 2014 class and members of its board of directors.
Jesse Sapolu, Co-Founder and Chairman of the Polynesian Football Hall of Fame, noted, "When we officially established the Polynesian Football Hall of Fame six months ago, the decision to choose Hawaii as our home was easy. It was important that our home be reflective of the culture and people of Polynesia, and for us, there was only one place, the Polynesian Cultural Center."
The new Hall of Fame will be placed in the area between the PCC's main entrance and the Pacific Theater, site of the award-winning evening show, Ha: Breath of Life, and special events throughout the year, including the World Fireknife Championships. The location and PCC's stature as one of Hawaii's most popular attractions ensure it will be highly visible to guests from around the world.

Howard M. Dess, Chair, NBCG
July 10, 2001
A. Introduction and Report Organization
NBCG plays a definitive role in overseeing and coordinating all aspects of collection development functions in New Brunswick, both print and electronic. Thanks to the dedication and interest of the New Brunswick selectors who comprise our membership, NBCG provides an essential forum for the discussion and resolution of collection development problems that are of common concern, as well as the introduction of new ideas and initiatives.
Members of the Budget Allocation Committee NBCG (listed below) merit a special note of appreciation for their unflagging support and perseverance in dealing with the budget allocation process and their guidance and counsel about other issues that were dealt with during the course of the year:
Mary Fetzer, Chair of the Social Science Subgroup
Ellen Gilbert, Chair of the Reference Subgroup
Jackie Mardikian, Chair of the Science Subgroup
Kevin Mulcahy, Chair of the Arts and Humanities Subgroup
Gracemary Smulewitz, Acting Head, Collection Services
(Howard Dess, Convenor)
Annual reports submitted by the Subgroup Chairs are presented in Appendix 1.
Appendix 2 contains the mission statement for NBCG.
B. Summary of NBCG Actions and Programs During the Year
1, Collections Budget Fund Code Allocations
A major responsibility of NBCG is the annual allocation of state budget funds
to the 300+ individual accounts that currently cover the spectrum of New Brunswick
collection categories. A smaller number of non-state gift and phonothon accounts
are also covered by this process. The Budget Allocation Committee of NBCG has
been delegated to carry out this task. The committee's objectives are to distribute
the budgeted funds as equitably as possible to the individual selector accounts,
taking into consideration factors such as: prior spending patterns, current
and anticipated academic program needs, and external developments beyond our
control relating to publisher pricing practices, introduction of costly new
products, and the rapidly shifting balance between print and electronic resources.
Not surprisingly, the BAC's efforts to match these often conflicting demands
against the hard reality of a fixed and limited collections budget are reflected
in a process that is both complex and time consuming.
The FY 2001 state funds allocation for New Brunswick, announced by R. G. Sewell on Oct. 18, 2000, was $3,250,077, divided as follows into broad subject categories:
Arts & Humanities/Social Sciences: $1,571,074
Sciences: 1,610,953
Unassigned/discretionary: 60,000 (*)
Multicultural funds: 8,050
Total NB State Funds Budget for FY 2001: $3,250,077
Non-state funds budget for NB for FY 2001: $1,281,649
(*) Per BAC decision, these funds were utilized to help cover bindery costs.
The state fund allotments shown above were subsequently apportioned out, by the Budget Allocation Committee, to the individual subject fund codes assigned to individual selectors. Phonothon and certain gift funds were similarly distributed to specific non-state fund codes and selectors.
During the course of the year, subsequent incremental adjustments, via transfers from Central accounts, raised the final total by 3.4% to $3,362,130. A significant fraction of these additional funds (nearly two thirds) was used to cover higher than anticipated monograph purchases under the NB approval plan. As of this date, the state funds budget for FY 2001 is essentially fully depleted or committed, as required by law. In the case of the non-state accounts, there is no requirement to spend out by the end of the fiscal year, and funds remain available for use in selected non-state accounts.
The decision made earlier in the year to acquire Science Direct introduced new complexities into the allocation process this year since it necessitated a massive transfer of funds from a large number of individual selector accounts to a Central account, while at the same time provision had to be made for the cancellation of the print versions of the Elsevier journals from those same selector accounts. The total funds shifted by this process amounted to approximately $800,000 system-wide, and over 400 Elsevier print titles were cancelled, the majority of which were part of the NB collection. Several other smaller package plans covering e-journals were also acquired this year (e.g., APS, the American Physical Society e-journal package), but none of these compared in size or scope with Science Direct.
Fortunately, no additional journal cancellations were mandated this year (i.e., beyond what was required by the acquisition of Science Direct). A limited number of cancellations of non-Elsevier titles was made voluntarily by individual selectors to free up funds for the acquisition of alternative journals.
2. Future of the Douglass Library Collection
The changing role of the Douglass Library was reviewed at the June meeting
in a discussion led by Francoise Puniello to help clarify and redirect the collection
development mission for this unit.
NBCG endorsed the recommendation that from now on collection development at Douglass will be restricted to Women's Studies, with Kayo Denda as selector, and Performing Arts with Margaret Wieszczek as selector. A related question dealt with the question: what to do about the existing collection at Douglass, substantial portions of which now have no relevance to the new mission. It was agreed that Kayo and Margaret, in collaboration with Gracemary Smulewitz, would review the collection and make recommendations about what should be retained in Douglass, what should be transferred to other RUL units, and what should be withdrawn.
3. Collection Rationalization Project
The object of this ongoing project is to consolidate duplicate and fragmented journal runs, both print and microform, currently held in multiple New Brunswick libraries. The ultimate objective is to create one run for each title that would be the longest and most complete run possible based on current holdings, and locate it at the unit deemed most appropriate for each subject. The remaining duplicate partial runs would then be withdrawn. Individuals who have taken on responsibility for this project are:
* Ben Beede: compiled a database of titles that are duplicated in JSTOR and which also have multiple runs in RULS libraries.
* Addie Tallau: is focusing on identifying science titles with duplicate runs.
* Gracemary Smulewitz: is directing Collection Services personnel to carry out the physical process of consolidation.
The multiple benefits of this work, as it progresses, will be:
* Making shelf space available for new materials.
* Simplification and clean-up of IRIS records, making them easier to use and understand.
* More convenient access for our users.
4. Review of Anthropology Selection
Helen Hoffman and Lourdes Vazquez presented a review of collection development for the field of anthropology in New Brunswick. In recent years the department has grown in size and importance, a trend that has not been matched by a concomitant growth in collection budget funds for this discipline. A recommendation was made to establish separate budgets for Cultural Anthropology and for Physical Anthropology, but since there appeared to be no realistic possibility at this time of obtaining incremental new funding to cover program growth of this sort (or for new programs in general), the following approach was adopted:
* Physical Anthropology collection development will continue to be handled by Helen Hoffman, using a limited share of Biology funds.
* Cultural Anthropology collection development will be managed by Lourdes Vazquez, using a current fund for that purpose.
Both Lourdes and Helen will serve as liaisons to the department, for their respective collection development specialties. Questions about the location for various portions of the anthropology collection remain to be decided (e.g., Chang vs. LSM for physical anthropology), following further study, and consultation with the department.
5. Review of SMLR Collection
The future of SMLR and the SMLR library was under review by a special Dean's committee which included two members of RULS from New Brunswick, Mary Fetzer and Ryan Womack who reported on their role to date in the deliberations of the committee. Mary and Ryan submitted a draft report including a list of SMLR titles, many of which are duplicated in print at other units or available online. Budget for the SMLR collection is from RULS, but personnel costs for this library are funded by SMLR. It was apparent that considerable savings could be effected for RULS by eliminating the duplicate subscriptions held at the SMLR library, but this decision will be subsumed under the overall recommendations of the Dean's committee.
6. Clean-Up of SIRSI Fund Code Records
As the year progressed, it became increasingly apparent that many of the fund code encumbrances recorded in SIRSI portrayed amounts that were misleading or even incorrect, and this, in turn distorted the free balance recorded for various accounts at any given time. The major reasons for this problem are: 1) Maintenance of old monograph orders on SIRSI (anywhere from one to 4+ years old), most of which have no realistic possibility of being acquired, after multiple attempts by Acquisitions personnel to obtain the items, and 2) Mistaken retention on the SIRSI records of journals that had been slated for cancellation, and in many cases had been cancelled. The Budget Allocation Committee recommended that the SIRSI records be corrected to minimize these distortions and provide a truer and more useful picture of the state of our collection finances at any given time. Gracemary Smulewitz has undertaken to carry out this task, via the Collection Services Department. Specifically:
* All domestic monograph orders older than 6 months will be cancelled.
* Foreign monograph orders older than one year will be cancelled.
* Lists of the cancelled items will be distributed to selectors who may choose to reinstate orders on a selective basis, as they feel appropriate.
* The records will be purged of all journal titles that were cancelled or which should have been cancelled.
* This process will be repeated periodically.
7. Oversight of NB Approval Plan
Kevin Mulcahy prepared a study of the NB approval plan (covers only arts and humanities and social sciences; science is excluded from this plan) and concluded that its performance was meeting expectations:
* Returns averaged just under 6% (as of mid-year), and indicates that in most case selectors had done a good job in setting up their subject profiles. However, periodic reassessments of profiles are required in order to adjust for any shifts in academic programs here at Rutgers, or shifts in publisher subject emphasis.
* During the prior fiscal year, discount savings amounting to approximately $113,000 were estimated to have resulted from use of the NB approval plan.
* For the future, we need to develop a way to track approval expenditures by subject category in order to determine if the current plan results in overexpenditures in some disciplines at the expense of underspending in others.
8. Update on E-Books
Ron Jantz was invited to present an overview and update on the status of e-books
in academia, with a view to helping decide what action (if any) should be taken
by RULS at this time to acquire such products. Because the field is still so
new, with product lines and providers still in a state of flux, no clear cut
decision could be reached about potential benefits for our Rutgers user community.
Participation in some experimental program(s) at low cost levels was suggested
as a way to gain first hand knowledge about possible applications.
9. "Big Ticket" Items
The sub-group chairs, in consultation with their respective memberships, compiled lists of high cost products for submission to Bob Sewell, at his request. This was done in response to his announcement about the availability of a pool of residual state funds remaining in Central accounts, and which had to be spent out by the end of the fiscal year. Requests totaling around $390,000 were transmitted to Bob ($180,000 Arts and Humanities; $108,000 for the sciences; and $99,000 for the social sciences). Available funds from Central are expected to cover no more than about half of this total.
10. Electronic Products Holdings Records in IRIS
NBCG discussed the need for holdings records in IRIS, covering electronic products. Historically, IRIS offers very elaborate and detailed holdings records for our print products, but virtually no information about electronic product holdings (or more properly, access information) beyond title and hot link. The user is left very much on his own to determine what is actually accessible, and this can be a very frustrating and time consuming exercise because of variable terms and conditions of site licenses from the various publishers. It was agreed that this problem needs to be further researched and better defined.
11. NBCG Election Procedure and Results
Two changes were introduced into NBCG election procedure, reflecting concern about continuity of leadership:
* As originally constituted, the term of office for all Sub-Group Chairs began and ended on the same date. In order to eliminate the possibility of a complete loss of experienced leaders in any one election, it was agreed that the terms of two of the Sub-Group Chairs be scheduled to overlap the other two.
* Creation of a new office, Deputy Chair of NBCG, was authorized. The Deputy Chair is to be selected from the Sub-Group Chairs, by that group, and will serve six month terms.
* Term of office for NBCG Chair and the Sub-Group Chairs was confirmed at two years.
Election results:
NBCG Chair: Howard Dess
(two year term, ending June 30, 2003)
Sub-Group Chairs:
Arts and Humanities: Kevin Mulcahy
(one year term, ending June 30, 2002; to be followed thereafter by two year terms)
Reference: Ellen Gilbert
(one year term, ending June 30, 2002; to be followed thereafter by two year terms)
Note: Ellen's subsequent resignation from RULS leaves this slot temporarily open.
Science: Jackie Mardikian
(two year term, ending June 30, 2003)
Social Sciences: Mary Fetzer
(two year term, ending June 30, 2003)
Deputy Chair of NBCG has not yet been selected.

As Chair of the Social Sciences Subgroup and as an advocate for the social sciences I chaired a well-attended meeting of the subgroup in March that focused on electronic packages, namely SourceOECD, AccessUN, Government Periodicals Universe, Transaction Publications, the APA Electronic Package, and an online substitute for Alexander's CD-ROM for political science. Although Lexis-Nexis Academic Universe was acquired through VALE funding the initial year, members worked to document a case for full funding for a second year. The group also discussed the handling of gifts.
Representing the Social Sciences, I also served on the Budget Allocation Committee, one of the more intensive activities of the year, apportioning both state and non-state funds among colleagues and working with librarians on cancellations as well as on big-ticket recommendations. I made a special effort to document the complex fund allocation process, and drafted a procedural document with recommendations which were discussed within the group. In addition, I have made a successful effort to have the social sciences compensated for scientific, technical, and medical titles paid for from social sciences funds but located to the science libraries from several international packages.
2. Ellen Gilbert, Chair, Reference Subgroup
The Reference Collections Subgroup has agreed that the NB libraries should collaborate in the selection of new materials as well as in the deselection of old ones. A wish list of "big items" (particularly electronic ones), in priority order, will also be developed to insure that we will have titles readily at hand when extra monies become available. With respect to deselection, Alex is, and will continue to be in most cases, the holder of the last "archival" copy of previously duplicated [non-science] print resources. Lists of deselected titles will be circulated among Dana and Robeson librarians, as well as NB participants.
NB reference team leaders also agreed that each would conduct, in the coming months, an overview of the current holdings and future configurations in their respective libraries.
3. Jackie Mardikian, Chair, Science Subgroup
The 3 Subgroup Chairs met on a monthly basis with the Chair of the NB Collections Group to discuss budget issues for 2001. In fall 2000, the Budget Allocation Committee examined the NB state expenditures and the non state expenditures, and allocated them to the fund codes. We first calculated a percentage allocation for each discipline. I compared the budgeted figures of the previous year and then compared them to the 2001 figures. In order to determine expenditures for 2000, we used the "paid" columns for each fund code. Since all the nonpercur periodicals were collapsed into the per columns, we added these figures. We subtracted all the Elsevier and other cancellations deducted from each fund code and added journal allocation figures. We then applied an 8.5% inflation factor to obtain final allocations for periodicals for 2001. Other budget adjustments were made by consultation between Howard Dess and Bob Sewell in order for the allocations to match the adjusted budget figures for the sciences.
The forum used to discuss budget concerns and journal cancellations is at the regular monthly Science Librarians meetings, the NB Collections Group or by e-mail. We do not hold separate meetings to discuss collection issues with Science Librarians. For example, when we were asked to submit orders for big ticket items, this was done by e-mail, and a prioritized list was compiled in a hurry.
Since the book vendor we used for Life Sciences, Login Brothers went out of
business, I investigated other vendors, and located Ritttenhouse Book Distributors
Inc. I arranged a meeting with representatives from Rittenhouse, our Acquisitions
department and several Life Sciences
Librarians. At this meeting, new accounts were established with Rittenhouse for approval plans, firm book orders, and standing orders. Two other Life Sciences Librarians and myself established approval plans for approval forms with Rittenhouse. I asked the NB Collection Services department to move all approval plans with Login to Rittenhouse. This service was carried out without disruption.
4. Kevin Mulcahy, Chair, Arts and Humanities Subgroup
The main focus of the Arts & Humanities team this year was the allocation of funds. While state funds were allocated largely on the basis of historical precedent, the availability of non-state money, especially money not restricted to a particular subject, allowed us to provide additional support to subject areas facing either particularly tight budgets or pressing demands for monographic materials. Part of the team leader's role was to parcel out money on shared fund codes and then monitor the funds. For the most part this merely allowed us to purchase current monographs for which state funds were inadequate, but it also allowed for a few larger purchases, some retrospective acquisitions, and filling-in of incomplete series.
NBCG Mission Statement
NBCG assumes responsibility and oversight for all aspects of collection development in the New Brunswick libraries, including budgeting, allocation of funds to specific subject categories, location of print collections, and maintaining a reasonable balance between available selectors and subject categories to be covered. For historical reasons, primary emphasis is still on print collections, but electronic access is growing in importance at exponential rates and also falls under the purview of NBCG.

Scott Parker's gut instinct might be to feel out of place. England are a team in transition, Fabio Capello drip-feeding young talent into his side to reinvigorate a set-up that had long felt stale. Yet while the integration of Danny Welbeck and Jack Wilshere, or the blooding of Phil Jones and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain will draw the focus in the months to come, Parker will be made to feel at home. His is a young head on old shoulders.
Those bright young things may represent the long-term future of this England team, but the immediate revitalisation ahead of next summer's European Championship will not be driven by an obsession with youth. Rather, Capello is seeking personnel who will travel to Poland and Ukraine unburdened by previous failures. A generation of players has been scarred by catastrophes endured from Gelsenkirchen to Bloemfontein. Parker would be 31 at Euro 2012, a veteran amid pups, but he will not be saddled by unwanted baggage.
The Tottenham Hotspur midfielder acknowledges as much. "I do feel part of a 'new' team," he says, with Capello's preparations gathering pace ahead of Friday's decisive qualifier in Montenegro. "Obviously, it is clear to see there are a lot of young players, very good players, coming in. People talk about my age, but you could probably include me in that. I haven't got a lot of experience at international level. I am 30 and one of the oldest in the squad, but I am new to this as well and have not been to a big, big tournament. But this is an evolving England team."
It is a side in which he increasingly appears integral. After a stop-start existence, with eight caps accrued over eight years, Parker is starting to feel as if he belongs. Successive England managers had deemed the midfielder to lack the zip, and sense of discipline in his defending, to influence international contests. His failure to make the cut for the World Cup squad in 2010 had felt like the final rejection. Yet the fact that he had made the provisional training camp having not featured previously under Capello actually represented a sign of progress. These days, the current footballer of the year is unrecognisable from the £10m midfielder whose impact was so negligible during a brief spell at Chelsea. "I'm better now than I was," he says. "I now have 10 years' more experience from when I broke into the game. I can deal with disappointments easier, and all of that helps to make me a better player. It's the same in any walk of life, in any job. There will be a point where age takes a hit on you, but that isn't the case with me yet.
"I thought my chance had gone when I didn't get to South Africa [in 2010]. I went to the pre-World Cup get-together and thought I'd done pretty well, but having not been involved in the qualifiers I knew the manager had his team. In his position I probably would have gone along the same lines as his selection. After that I thought it would be difficult breaking back in under Mr Capello. I just had to get my head down, keep working, and thankfully it has turned around. I got my chance.
"When it came [as a second half substitute in the friendly victory in Denmark back in February] I had to take it. When half-time came and I was on, my attitude was one where I knew I needed to give it a rip, really, and see what happened. Obviously I impressed the manager, which got me a start against Wales. From then on, really, it has kicked on."
His absence for all but the last 17 minutes of last month's qualifier against the Welsh felt surprising, though a booking in that potentially feisty game would have ruled him out in Montenegro where England need only a point to progress. It seems unthinkable that Parker will not start in Podgorica. Once passage has been secured, thoughts can turn to breaking his tournament duck.
"The true test, for the whole team, will come in a tournament," he adds. "In South Africa it didn't go anywhere near to plan, so we have to do better than we did there. But there's an excitement and buzz in our team, something you get with young players who are fresh and haven't experienced disappointments. That could be a massive plus for us." His passport may suggest he is a veteran but, crammed in among the youngsters, Parker will offer his own brand of wide-eyed enthusiasm around which this team may thrive.

Tonight the number of Idol hopefuls went from nine to eight, and Pia Toscano took the fall. In the bottom three with her were Jacob Lusk and Stefano Langone. This was expected, after all her performance last night wasn't all that strong…
Wait, what?
Too bad the judges already used their save. In the second of absolutely insane results, America voted and one of the top vocalists on the show went home. If you were to ask me why Pia finished last, I have absolutely no reason to give you. This is the most baffling Idol decision since Jennifer Hudson left the show early. Pia was the probably most consistent singer this season, always delivering notable performances and pushing herself to be better each week. We can only hope though that like Jennifer Hudson before her, she will go on to bigger and better things. Perhaps things where her fate isn't decided primarily by apparently tone deaf viewers.
With Britney Spears having the number 1 album and Pia Toscano leaving American Idol it is as clear as ever that Americans as a whole have awful taste in music.

The open trail is waiting for you.
Hiking our national parks is a great way to see many kinds of birdlife, plants and animals.
As intimidating as some of our trails may look on a map, don't worry. Most are designed in loops so you easily return to your starting point. Some trails are self-guided, some require the expertise of a licensed tour guide who can point out birds, wildlife and local plants.
Whatever level of hiker you consider yourself, we have the trail to match what you're looking for. Take a day tour or spend several days camping—either one provides you with the chance to encounter exotic tropical plants and birds, or to see wildlife, including howler monkeys, crocodile, or the tracks of the elusive jaguar and tapir (just hope they're only the tracks).

Crusaders fall to Friars in final seconds
Like objects of a prom queen's scorn, Brother Rice has experienced plenty of heartbreak during the 2013 football season.
One last bout of it was delivered to the Crusaders Saturday afternoon at Joe Johnston Field. Seeing its first action in three weeks by hosting Fenwick in a Chicago Catholic League semifinal playoff game, Rice was more rested than rusty as it jumped out to a 14-0 halftime lead.
But then an old bugaboo cropped up, and three second-half turnovers proved too much to overcome.
The Friars used the last of those to set up a 34-yard Michael Cahill field goal, which was booted with four seconds left in regulation. By virtue of the successful kick, Fenwick defeated the Crusaders 24-21 and moved on to face St. Rita, a victor over De La Salle in the other semifinal, this weekend.
The winner of the Catholic League final will appear in the Prep Bowl at Solider Field the Friday after Thanksgiving. Opposing it will be the champion of the Chicago Public League.
As for Rice (3-7), the narrow setback was merely the latest in a long line of them this fall. Six of the Crusaders' losses came by a total of just 49 points. One of those was an eight-point defeat against the Friars during the regular schedule.
"It is what it is," Rice coach Brian Badke said. "It's frustrating, but we just didn't get it done. We're just not finishing [well]."
Badke elevated a total of 35 players from the Crusaders' two lower-level squads to the varsity prior to the contest, and one of those newcomers — freshman Ricky Smalling — caught a 45-yard scoring pass from Alex Alarcon that handed Rice a 21-14 advantage late in the third quarter.
"We did a scrimmage the week before and probably had our two best weeks of practice," Badke said. "It was nice to be in the Prep Bowl playoffs as far as getting extra practices in and bringing young guys up. Both [lower-level] teams were coming off conference titles, so they gave us some energy and I felt good going in [to the game]."
There was no reason for Badke to feel any worse, either, through the contest's first 24 minutes. Marcus Jones' 2-yard run and Alarcon's 11-yard bootleg staked the Crusaders to a 14-0 lead in the second period, and Rice's defense did the rest.
Michael McGinley (five solo tackles, one assist), Greg Bernier (four solos, two assists, two pass breakups, one interception), Julian Davis (four solos, two assists) and Jordan Boyd (four solos) were the Crusaders' ringleaders on that side of the ball. Bobby Sullivan picked off another Gino Cavalieri pass.
But Cavalieri also found one of his intended targets, Northern Illinois University-bound tight end Ryan Smith, with an 8-yard scoring toss in the third quarter. That touchdown and a game-tying 10-yard dash by Michael Hanrahan both came on fourth-down plays and followed Rice miscues that occurred while the hosts had a strong wind at their backs.
"That was our Achilles heel all year — they killed us," Badke said of the turnovers. "We have to do a much better job of holding onto the football. That starts with the head coach.
"We didn't turn the ball over in the first half and it's 14-0 [in our favor]. Fenwick scored 17 points off turnovers — without them, we win."
After Smalling's TD catch regained the lead for the Crusaders, they maintained it until the waning moments of regulation. Fenwick finally pulled even a second time on Charlie Emmons' 6-yard run with just over a minute remaining, but Rice — which was armed with three timeouts — began driving again once it got the ball back.
However, miscommunication on a pass play resulted in an interception, which gave the Friars possession around midfield and set the table for Cahill's deciding three-pointer.
"We're competitive and we're not that far away [from being equal to premier programs], but we have to do a few things to get over the top," Badke said. "We really need to focus on little things, [like] fundamentals and leadership. We've got to have a great offseason."
That being said, Badke did not express disappointment about anything other than the sub-par ledger — and even that unhappiness was not for the reason one might think.
"The record didn't show what we were about," he said. "The kids always gave us their best effort, which is all you can ask for.
"Brother Rice has been around a long time and has a good tradition, and I hope the kids use that as motivation to prepare for next season."
Jones and Alarcon finished with 97 and 88 rushing yards, respectively, to spark the Crusaders' offense. Alarcon spread his 11 completions among six different receivers.

Dawson: The best of society on display helping flood victims in Gatineau
There were no soldiers filling sandbags or heaving them into trucks on rue Saint-Louis on Monday morning.
Just regular people, of all sorts and of all ages, shovelling from two big piles of sand into green bags and hefting them into the backs of pickup trucks.
Civil society at its best.
Before I'd even got my boots on, someone drove by, asking if this was the spot to help out. A steady stream of people, some lugging shovels, made their way to loading area to help. An efficient passing line had sprung up to lift the bags into the trucks, a sort of organized chaos that seemed absent any particular leader or organizer.
Somehow, everyone seemed to know where to go.
Beyond the crowds — children perched atop the sand piles — the streets were flooded in every direction. A Sea-Doo was tethered; people were coming and going in boats. The smell of egg sandwiches drifted through the air as a man went through the crowd, handing them out to the helpers — a carnival of charity.
I connected with Phil Pilon, who, having heard they needed trucks, had driven in from Stittsville to help. We lifted bags into the bed of his truck until it was full, and I hopped into the back seat. Paul Brigas of Gatineau, who knew Pilon, though they hadn't seen each other in some time, chatted in French in the passenger seat.
I had no idea where we were going.
Hazard lights blinking, we wound our way slowly through Gatineau, along rue Jacques-Cartier, where, after driving through water several inches deep, we unloaded the bags into a big pile, with the help of people already there. Moments later, a woman came out with a tray of styrofoam cups full of soup.
"One thing we never run out of is food," Pilon noted.
We didn't stay to see what the plan for the bags was; our three-man delivery crew headed back to Saint-Louis and rue Moreau, loaded up and headed back out. When we found our next destination, we unloaded. I dodged an errant sandbag tossed from the truck. "C'est dangereux," someone mused. Once we'd finished, a man said, "Merci, mon homme," shaking my hand. I asked him if this house was his place. No, Luc Asselin said, he'd come from Perkins to help.
While no doubt there were many from Gatineau who were pitching in, it was clear plenty of folks had come from further afield.
Back at the loading zone, Pilon took off to pick his kids up from school. I met up with Citizen photographer Wayne Cuddington, and after he'd taken some photos of us loading yet another pickup truck, we clambered in.
The driver: Richard Sabourin from Thurso. Employees from the company he works for, Irrigation Lemieux, had taken the day to help; their big white pickups were rumbling to and from the loading area. Again, just here to help out.
When we got to our destination this time, it was pretty clear people were still worried. The water seemed safely low, not even lapping onto the road. But, considering the speed with which the flooding happened last week, it seemed only logical to prepare for the worst.
Fifteen minutes later, we'd hand-bombed the sandbags and assembled a foot-tall buffer around part of the lawn of a home. I was rather sore. "I won't have to go to the gym today," I quipped to one of the men there who — providing an excuse I'm inclined to take — suggested I won't need to go for the week.
These hours in Gatineau showed the best of Canadians, Ontarians, Quebecers. By now, some had lost everything. Many were at no risk themselves, but came to help. In the cold and the snow, there was plenty of laughter and smiling as everyone worked to help those who needed it.
The best of Canadian society, on display and working hard.
Tyler Dawson is deputy editorial pages editor of the Ottawa Citizen.

Girl Guides of Canada
Learn More
Girl Guides of Canada–Guides du Canada (GGC ) is the leading organization for girls and women in Canada, with 83,000 members across the country. Guiding provides a safe environment that invites girls and young women to challenge themselves, find their voice, meet new friends, have fun and make a difference in the world. Guiding offers the widest range of activities of any extracurricular activity for girls and young women, with opportunities to explore the arts, sciences, outdoor challenges, global awareness and so much more through enriching experiences that will stay with them for a lifetime.
The Project @UTM
Girl Guides of Canada is interested in working with UTM students to develop a program that offers our girls opportunities that they would not experience elsewhere. Our Guiding program covers a broad range of interests including the sciences, the environment, arts, global awareness, international issues, outdoor skills, and self esteem. A goal would be to select one, two, or several of these interests and develop a half or full day interactive session that would support our Guiding program, and allow the UTM students to showcase their skills. It is possible that two separate sessions could be offered, based on the ages and program requirements of our girls. Guides are aged 9-12, and Pathfinders are aged 12-15.
Registration for this project is now closed.
If you registered for this project, please note that training will be on Saturday January 20th from 9am-12pm.

Striking a balance between functionality and sportiness, Barska's 10x42mm Crush Binoculars in a light green, called Pistachio,, utilizes the common combination of magnification and objective lens size to give users the ability to make detailed observations of distant objects with enhanced low-light performance. Helping boost usability are anti-reflection fully multi-coated optics that optics improve color rendition and contrast, while increasing light transmission especially in challenging light conditions such as at dawn or dusk, or under heavy canopies. The chassis is wrapped in a slip-resistant rubber armoring and the stylish color makes the Crush stand out in a crowd at a game, concert, or range. If you're planning on glassing for extended periods the binocular can be mounted on a tripod using an optional adapter.

Before the 17th century, people generally believed that Earth was at the center of the universe. Galileo, however, was not afraid to challenge existing beliefs when he published his work in support of the Sun-centered, or heliocentric, Copernican theory. In this video segment adapted from NOVA, learn about the two opposing worldviews and the strong piece of evidence Galileo offered to support the heliocentric theory.

October 24, 2012 14:49 ET
OTTAWA, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Oct. 24, 2012) - Over the past several months, federal, provincial and territorial governments have been working closely with the Canadian Pork Council, producers, processors and others to carefully assess the challenges facing the hog sector in Canada. High feed costs coupled with low hog prices have resulted in increased pressure for hog producers in recent months.
Governments recognize the pork industry as an important driver of our economy. The Canadian pork industry generated close to four billion dollars in farm cash receipts in 2011; Canadian producers exported $3.6 billion worth of live hogs and pork.
"Supporting the industry's long-term viability benefits all Canadians," said federal Agriculture Minister Gerry Ritz. "That's why, after meeting with industry leaders earlier this summer, we formed a government-industry task team to examine the state of the sector more closely and to monitor the industry going forward."
The Hog Industry Task Team, which includes leadership from the Canadian Pork Council (CPC) and the Canadian Meat Council, pork processors and producers, was formed to develop a common understanding of the challenges facing the sector and to look at possible solutions to address them, including working to ensure the sector makes full use of existing programs. Provinces and financial institutions have also been engaged in these ongoing discussions. There is broad consensus among industry and market analysts, both in Canada and abroad, that market conditions for hog producers will improve by the spring of 2013.
"Ontario recognizes the significant challenges facing the hog sector. We are working closely with Ontario hog producers and the federal government to look at national solutions that will best position this industry to move forward," said Ontario Minister of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs Ted McMeekin.
Based on discussions of the task team and federal-provincial-territorial deliberations, government and industry officials have agreed on the following immediate actions to help the hog sector deal with short term financial pressures:
"These are the recommended programs that producers can currently access to address liquidity pressures", said Jean-Guy Vincent, Chair of the CPC. "Pork producers are also dealing with the accumulated impacts of the higher Canadian dollar and U.S. country-of-origin labelling (COOL) legislation, and we will continue to advance ideas through the task force on what additional actions may be required until stronger market conditions return."
The work of the Hog Industry Task Team will continue as it explores ways to increase sector competitiveness in the mid to long term. All agree that measures must respect international agreements, treat all commodities and regions fairly and must not mask market signals.

There are quite a few tools I use to run my business. These tools are all investments – for me, they pay back way more to me than I end up spending on them. I'm asked all the time what tools I use and so I decided to make a list here.
Please note that some of these links are affiliate links and I may make a commission if you choose to purchase through my link. Let me reassure you though – I would NEVER recommend something without using it every day in my business myself. Purchasing through my affiliate links is a way you can help support me & my business – but if you'd rather not, feel free to google the companies yourself and buy them that way. Whatever feels best to you, lovely!
Digital Products
Coach is the best platform out there to sell your digital products online. I truly believe that. With excellent customer service, constant improvements & new features, and the most polished checkout and learning experience I've ever seen, your customers will love you for using Coach.
Email Marketing
I am a ConvertKit Certified Expert and I'm proud to say I was Customer #99 EVER for ConvertKit! I've been around since the tool was in its infancy and have seen it grow into the incredibly powerful tool it is today. As a Certified Expert, you can grab a free month's trial of ConvertKit by using my link – or find out more about my ConvertKit services.
I was really lucky to get on the beta for Demio before it was released to the public and again have seen the platform grow to what it is today – with constant improvements, an incredible support team and – most importantly! – an incredible webinar experience for my audience, I can't recommend Demio enough.
Web Hosting
My web host of choice are Guru. They are backed by UKDedicated, a leading UK web host, and I can truly say they're the best web hosts I've ever used. Their support is better than any I've used before and they consistently go above & beyond to help me out and deliver the best service they can. Host in the US? I'd recommend WP Engine!
Client Management System
Dubsado is one of the newest tools on this list for me, and is one of my very favourites. Dubsado is my client management or relationship system (CRM) of choice – it helps me to automate tons of the moving parts in my business (quotes, proposals, contracts, invoices, etc) and make the experience for my 1:1 clients the absolute very best that it can be. 🙂
Online Forms & Surveys
If you can't already tell, I love being an early adopter to a service! While everyone else is crazy about Typeform, I'm a huge fan of the Aussie-based Paperform. I can create incredibly simple OR complex forms and surveys and use this all over my business.
My Secret Weapon
I consider Zapier my secret weapon because it helps me to create incredibly powerful integrations between various tools – in particular, when they don't have direct integrations with each other. The great thing about Zapier is how easy it is to make really complex connections and make more use of the products that you use.
Planning & Notes
I've tried to get away from them, and every time I end up back with Evernote. I use Evernote for everything – general note-taking, planning and organising my blog posts and content calendar.

The Vault
My collection of free resources to grow your brand + build your creative business with confidence and ease.
