Each year, the Oak Institute for International Human Rights brings an Oak Human Rights Fellow to teach and conduct research while residing at the College. The Institute organizes lectures and other events centered around the fellow's area of expertise. The purpose of the fellowship is to offer an opportunity for prominent practitioners in international human rights to take a sabbatical leave from their work and spend as long as a semester as a scholar-in-residence at Colby College. This provides the Fellow time for reflection, research, and writing.
While all human rights practitioners are eligible, we especially encourage applications from those who are currently or were recently involved in "on-the-ground" work at some level of personal risk. The Oak Fellow's responsibilities include regular meetings with students either through formal classes or informal discussion groups and assistance in shaping a lecture series or symposium associated with the particular aspect of human rights of interest to the fellow. The fellow also is expected to participate in the intellectual life of the campus and enable our students to work or study with a professional in the human rights field.
The Fellow will receive a stipend and College fringe benefits, plus round-trip transportation from the fellow's home site, private housing near campus, use of a car, and meals on campus. The Fellow will also receive research support, including office space, secretarial support, computer and library facilities, and a student assistant. The Fellowship is awarded for the fall semester (September through December) each year. Following the period of the award, the fellow is expected to return to her or his human rights work.
For more information on the 2013 Oak Fellowship please view our Brochure (pdf).

Weather permitting, the City's contractor, Petticoat-Schmitt Civil Contractors, Inc., will be working Saturday, 12/14/19 on 12th Ave. S.between 3rd and 1st Streets South and 2nd St. South between...
The following safety precautions and rules will help swimmers and beach goers while visiting our city. Before you step foot in the water, check the flag rating system or consult with a lifeguard about ocean conditions.
A runout forms when water is trying to get past a shallow sandbar. The water finds a weak spot in the sandbar and breaks through. To avoid being caught in a runout, always swim in front of a lifeguard in waist deep water or less. If caught in a runout:
Swimmers who are not familiar with currents may enter the ocean for a swim and end up blocks away from where they started. These currents often move swimmers into dangerous areas. It is a good idea to spot a landmark where you entered the water and keep an eye on it while you swim. Always swim in front of a lifeguard and in waist-deep water or less.
While jellyfish stings can be very uncomfortable, a man-of-war sting can be dangerous. In severe cases, paralysis or shock may occur, making medical attention imperative. A man-of-war is turquoise in color, looks like a balloon, and has very long tentacles.
If you see a man-of-war while swimming, get as far away from it as possible. Remember that its tentacles are very long. If you are stung by a man-of-war go directly to a lifeguard.
Dehydration & sunburns occur quickly and without warning. To avoid these hazards:
It's important to remember eye protection at the beach, a long day of exposure to the sun can damage your eyes. Purchase glasses that have a UV sticker or tag indicating that the glasses provide protection from ultra violet rays.
Never swim when lightning or a storm is approaching the area. Get out of the water immediately!

Running Start
This story appears in the January 2008 issue of Entrepreneur. Subscribe »
Buying a franchise is often touted as the easier path to business ownership. But the road to becoming an entrepreneur will never be risk-free. There's no such thing as a free lunch, and even buying a franchise requires some kind of seed capital. In addition, making the transition from employee to franchisee--and more important, going from having a secure paycheck to none at all--can be daunting. Finally, acquiring the business knowledge necessary to get up and running takes time, even if the franchisor provides training.
But don't let the obstacles turn you away. Franchisors are offering a variety of programs that are specifically designed to help you over the hurdles and give you a leg up on franchise ownership. So if you're a veteran, a minority or just someone looking for a break, read on. You might be surprised by what we've uncovered.
You won't have to look far to find a franchise that's participating in the Veterans Transition Franchise Initiative (known as VetFran). Launched by the International Franchise Association after the Gulf War, the program was designed to ease veterans' entry into business owner-ship by offering them some form of financial assistance. "Some systems may reduce the initial franchise fee, some systems may decide not to assess a training fee, some systems may provide temporary initial adjustment on the royalty payment," explains Matt Shay, president of the IFA. Now, with nearly 1,000 franchises launched by veterans and franchisors eager to get involved, VetFran is accomplishing exactly what it set out to do.
"The opportunity to give a veteran not just a unique business opportunity, but a bit of a kick-start into a new business is something we think is a great idea," says James Alisch, director of franchise development for 1-800-Got-Junk?, a full-service junk removal franchise that has participated in VetFran for more than two years. The program is working out well for 1-800-Got-Junk?--it has already brought nine qualified franchisees to the table. Says Alisch, "[Veterans] have experience, a fairly strong track record of dedication and integrity, and the ability to commit to delivering what they say they will."
Among these franchisees are Jeff Drawe, 31, and Mike Stoll, 37. Both helicopter pilots, they met while they were deployed in Iraq in 2004. While they were in Dubai later that year, the pair discussed their mutual dream of opening a business. Together, they purchased seven 1-800-Got-Junk? territories, which secured them half the city of Jacksonville, Florida, last August.
The friends were granted an initial franchise fee reduction through a process that Drawe describes as seamless. "Once we were offered the franchise, the price reduction--which amounted to almost $12,000 based on the number of territories we had--was already included in our franchise price," he says.
Drawe credits the VetFran program with giving veterans the confidence to pave their own paths after leaving the military. "A lot of people are very scared of leaving that structure, that steady paycheck, that job security," he says. "Thank God VetFran is there, because it helps lure those budding entrepreneurs with financial benefits."
Neither Drawe nor Stoll is quite yet retired from the military. Drawe leaves the service in March of next year, and Stoll still has more than four years left, but they have grand plans for the future, which is sure to involve many more business ventures. "We've set up a series of goals for ourselves," says Stoll. "Our short-term goal is to be the No. 1 franchise within a year of opening."
If a junk removal service doesn't appeal to you, almost 300 other franchises stand ready to offer assistance to veterans. You can find a complete listing of VetFran participants at the IFA's website, franchise.org.
Programs for Minorities
Veterans aren't the only ones benefiting from special programs. Historically, minorities have had a difficult time gaining access to capital and are therefore the main focus of some franchisors' recruitment efforts. In January 2006, Domino's Pizza introduced a new program, Delivering the Dream, designed to help its existing minority general managers become franchisees. "Over our 46-year history, our model has been an internally franchised model, and our whole [goal] is to [help] great people in our system become franchisees," says Mike Mettler, director of franchise recruitment and sales for Domino's Pizza. "One of the biggest hurdles [for franchisees] is the financial hurdle, so to improve that model and continue to support and develop diverse franchisees, we launched the Delivering the Dream program."
The pizza franchise has reserved up to $1 million for the program and caps each award at $250,000. While the support is typically in the form of a loan guarantee, a candidate can also receive grants. Domino's Pizza distributed three awards last year, and at press time it was on track to meet its 2007 goal of five.
Jessy Watson started out with Domino's Pizza in 1999, delivering pizzas part time. He worked his way up to general manager, and in 2005 he purchased his first store in La Grande, Oregon, with co-owners, Dennis Poe Jr., 30, and Rebecca Johnston, 53. A year later, Watson, who is black, received a $180,000 loan guarantee through the Delivering the Dream program and was able to open a second Oregon location. Having a big name backing him made all the difference. It took approximately eight months of major hassle and stress before he could secure the money to purchase the first store. The second time around, Watson started building a new store in June 2006 and had it open by September of the same year. Says Watson, "To be honest, [GE Capital] funded me much quicker just because they knew I had a loan guarantee." Watson, 36, projects combined 2008 sales for his two stores to reach between $800,000 and $1 million, and he dreams of owning at least 20 stores one day.
Watson believes the Delivering the Dream program offers many who are still Domino's Pizza general managers a light at the end of the tunnel. "[It] gives some people a real opportunity to reach for their dreams and strive for something better," he says. "It's a matter of Domino's reaching out and saying, 'We actually care; we want to see you do better; we want to see you obtain your goals, because if you can achieve your goals, that's helping us achieve ours.'"
In other efforts, Focus Brands, the franchisor and operator of Carvel, Cinnabon, Moe's Southwest Grill and Schlotzsky's, recently implemented its Growth Through Diversity program in an effort to make the company's constituent base of franchisees mirror its diverse clientele. Focus Brands offers minority franchisees a $10,000 discount on the franchise fee, a reimbursement of $10,000 once the store opens and an additional $10,000 reimbursement after the first year, as long as development milestones, operational standards and marketing expenditure requirements are met. It's currently perfecting the program in the Atlanta market and is finalizing a deal with its first Growth Through Diversity franchisee.
Both Domino's Pizza and Focus Brands are members of MinorityFran. Similar to the VetFran program, MinorityFran is also an IFA initiative that is focused on recruiting minorities and providing them with support and assistance. While MinorityFran franchises are not required to offer any kind of financial assistance, some of them do. The program currently has more than 200 members.
Managing Partner
Matt Friedman and Adam Scott founded Wing Zone, a Buffalo wings takeout and delivery franchise, when they were only 21 and 19, respectively. Now they want to offer opportunities to others by removing some of the hurdles. "The reality in this day and age is that you need [at least] $100,000 net worth," says Friedman. "It's so difficult for someone young to start a business."
So in 2006, Friedman and Scott established their Managing Partner program for individuals who have at least three years of restaurant management experience and $15,000. The managing partners are put in charge of a company-owned location and earn 25 percent of the profit. Once they've built enough capital to cover 50 percent of the store's purchase price, it becomes theirs--they officially become a franchisee, and corporate finances the remaining 50 percent over a set period of time. "We want to get them to a point in roughly two to three years where they could become an owner," says Friedman. Currently, the program has opportunities available in Atlanta; Charleston, South Carolina; Miami; and Tampa, Florida.
Friedman and Scott aren't the only ones dishing out the opportunities. Noble Benefield, an experienced restaurant executive and advocate for urban development programs, became a Wing Zone franchisee almost two years ago. But even before then, he dreamed of providing opportunities to others. Benefield's goals are similar to those of the Managing Partner program: He aims to help others obtain franchises of their own. To do that, he plans to select protégés, teach them the ropes, help them develop plans to establish and build equity, and eventually allow them to acquire his store. Benefield, 58, just selected his first protégé for his store in Lithonia, Georgia, and is setting his sights on opening another store. He'd like to replicate the model at least five times. Says Benefield, "If I can achieve that and get those running well and successful in themselves, I would consider this particular piece of my life a success."
For many, there is a necessary waiting period between the time they leave their full-time job and when they get their business off the ground and turning a profit. And that alone can be enough to squash their dreams of setting out on their own.
Three years ago, Spring-Green Lawn Care, a lawn- and tree-care service franchise, took advantage of the fact that its business is a seasonal one and launched a program that is known today as Flex-Start. Under this program, franchisees who come in midseason are able to start part time, with a commitment to go full time by January 1 of the following year. In this way, franchisees can keep their full-time jobs while learning the ropes of the franchise and building up a client base on the side. The results of the program are impressive. According to James Young, president of Spring-Green Lawn Care, franchisees under the Flex-Start program enjoy first-year revenue that is an average of 30 percent higher than that of franchisees not in the program. In addition, more than half the franchises that opened in 2007 started under the program. Says Young, "When you think of that [transition] from the corporate environment to entrepreneurship, this really is a unique bridge, [so Flex-Start] has been well-received."
"The Flex-Start program was a tremendous help for us, because it let us crawl before we walked and before we had to run," says Matt Holker, 53, who bought his franchise in August 2006 with his son Greg, 23. Matt, who worked in the construction and housing industry, was able to keep his job while learning the franchise's computer system, making sales calls and growing his customer base to roughly 50 clients by fall 2006. By the next spring, business was booming, and the following fall, they had obtained more than 350 clients. His son Luke, 27, has joined the company part time and has a full-time job as well. Says Matt, "Had we not had some kind of adjustment to get to this point, quite honestly, we would have fallen on our faces."
Union Programs
Even laid-off workers in the auto industry have programs geared toward helping them become franchisees. In 2006, Jack Butorac, CEO and president of Marco's Franchising LLC, the franchisor for Marco's Pizza in Toledo, Ohio, established a partnership with United Auto Workers to lend a helping hand to those who had suffered from the industry's major cutbacks. "These are individuals who have given 110 percent," says Butorac. "I felt it was an opportunity to give back or give them an opportunity to succeed and control their own destiny."
Marco's Franchising waives costs for store construction management and reduces the franchise fee by up to $5,000 if relocation expenses are incurred. In addition, the company has pledged to give 20 percent of all royalty fees collected from franchisees in the program to the UAW's training and re-education fund.

Smoking is a nasty habit that fouls the air, leaves discarded cigarette butts strewn on sidewalks and lawns, and wrecks the health of millions.
But is it worth jail time?
Some Boulder leaders think so, with the City Council recently moving forward with a proposed ordinance that would ban smoking on the Pearl Street Mall and set steep penalties for violations, including up to 90 days in jail.
Granted, the council is hedging, by passing a second version of the ban that sticks with fines but leaves out jail time for a first offense. Both come up for discussion at the council's Nov. 1 meeting.
It's reasonable to ban smoking in confined places where nonsmokers are trapped — such as in certain businesses and on public transportation — but when government targets the activity in public, open-air places where individuals may roam freely, one must wonder what's next. Gum chewing in parking lots and on sidewalks comes to mind.
Any jail time for smoking is simply unreal. In a place where so many have been emboldened to smoke marijuana in public?
Smokers do themselves no favors. Tossed cigarette butts are not just a nuisance; they pose a threat for fires. Yet smokers — maybe a small percentage, but that doesn't matter — continue to flick cigarettes out car windows, and onto sidewalks and parking lots.
Considering the effects of secondhand smoke on others, it's no wonder that communities decide they've had enough. But this goes too far. Fine those caught tossing cigarette butts and use the money to pay for the cleanup, but leave the jail cells for other "criminals."

From a teaching perspective, sometimes it can be difficult to explain how logarithms work in Mathematics. I came to the point where I tried to explain binary and hexadecimal to someone who did not have a strong background in Mathematics. Are there some common examples that can be used to explain this?
For example (perhaps this is not the best), but we use tally marks starting from childhood. A complete set marks five tallies and then a new set is made. This could be an example of a log with a base of 5.

We've been waiting for Nvidia for over a month to release a new standalone 3D Vision driver with profiles for new top games, but there is still nothing available, even as a beta version. Nvidia however released a new driver for graphic cards version 196.75 that also included an updated 3D Vision driver with the same version, but this one only supported 3D Vision Discover mode… and soon after that this driver was recalled and removed from the website because some issues (not in the 3D Vision part, but in the GPU driver!). So I repacked the 3D Vision driver version 196.75 with the IR Transmitter USB driver that was originally not present and here you can download the full package and install on your PC while waiting for the official updated release (the 3D Vision driver provided is completely safe to use!). And as you can see above this driver has profile even for the recently announced 3D Vision Ready title Just Cause 2 that also works with the just released demo of the game. Besides the Just Cause 2 profile you can also see other 3D Vision-ready titles such as the quite expected Metro 2033 game. And if you are wondering what that Biohazard 5 game is, well nothing new actually as this is the name under which the Resident Evil 5 is actually known as in Japan, so no big news there. The 3D Vision driver 196.75 also includes official profiles for games like Battlefield: Bad Company 2 and even correctly recognizes the new Aliens vs Predator game that had issues with older versions of the driver (loaded a profile for older AvP game that messes up things). Have in mind however that even though there is a profile for the new AvP it is being rated as Not Recommended for 3D Vision because of the 2D flashlight and other lights being rendered at wrong depth levels (need a path for the game to fix that).
But the interesting things in the new version 196.75 of the 3D Vision driver don't end up with only new profiles for games, there are also seem to be other new additions. If you remember back in January I told you about some new expected features in 3D Vision and Nvidia seem to be adding some of these already. Like for example the 3D Vision plugin for Mozilla Firefox (npnv3dv.dll) you get installed or the one for Internet Explorer (Nv3DVisionIePlugin.dll and Nv3DVisionIePlugin64.dll) as these are supposed to allow you to view stereoscopic 3D photo pairs directly from within your browser. However I could not make them work, as I'm not even sure how they are supposed to be working anyway… there is still no any information officially available for them… yet. Anyway, if you are eager to get the repackaged 3D Vision standalone driver version 196.75 you can download it from one of the links below. Then you need to extract the Zip archive and run the setup.exe to complete the installation, if you get a prompt for the USB drivers for the IR transmitter you can select the folder where you extracted the driver (32-bit and 64-bit versions are included).

JACKSONVILLE – UMBC seniors Dennison Long (Greenbelt, Md./Eleanor Roosevelt/FIU) and Andrew Smith (Chadds Ford, Pa./Garnet Valley) advanced out of the preliminary round of the 100m dash and 800m run, respectively, on the first day of the NCAA East Preliminaries, Thursday at the University of North Florida's Hodges Stadium.
Looking to advance to his second NCAA Championships of 2014, Smith placed fourth in the sixth and final heat of the 800m evet, but recorded the tenth-fastest time of the event to advance to the quarterfinals to be held tomorrow. The senior clocked in with a time of 1:48.63 which clips his previous school record of 1:48.72 set during the prelims at the 2014 IC4A Championships on May 17.
Smith ran in the 800m run at the indoor championships back in March and could become the fourth Retriever athlete in program history to compete in both national meets in the same calendar year if he finishes inside the top-12 tomorrow.
Long, meanwhile, placed second in the sixth and final heat of the 100m dash to earn a spot in the event quarterfinals on Friday. The senior sprinter recorded a time of 10.53 to move on and continue his chase for a spot at the national championships in Oregon. Long will also compete in the prelims of the 200m dash on Friday in Jacksonville.
Sophomore Vincent Rentzsch (Oranienburg, Germany/Elite Sportschule Potsdam) participated in the javelin throw and finished in 44th. After over a month of rest, Rentzsch was attempting to make it to the NCAA Championships for the second consecutive year and registered a top throw of 56.36m (184'11") on the day.
Chris Caper of Robert Morris posted the top throw of the competition with a heave of 73.09m (239'9) while Louisiana Tech's Joshua Cox earned the final national qualifying spot with a top throw of 66.39m (217'9").
The 2014 NCAA East Preliminaries will pick back up on Friday morning with the men's hammer throw set to commence at 10:00 a.m. The men's 110m hurdles will kick off the track events at 5:00 p.m. with UMBC senior Trae Proctor (Brandywine, Md./Thomas Stone) set to run in heat five.

The tenth Kössen Paragliding Testival is on from 31 May to 3 June 2018.
Last year saw record crowds at the Austrian event, with 4,300 pilots and 7,500 flights flown over four days. It's rapidly becoming a must-attend for everyone in the paragliding industry.
The idea of the festival is that pilots can turn up, drop off their passport in exchange for a demo wing, and then use the cablecar to swiftly head up for a test fly. Dedicated pilots can fly lots of wings.
El Yelmo International Festival of the Air is back in Segura de la Sierra, Andalucia, Spain, on 1-3 June 2018. Now in its 19th edition, the free-flying festival promises three days of fun in the Spanish sun, with airshows, a trade fair, conferences, a competition and the International Festival of Air Cinema.
Hundreds of paraglider and paramotor pilots are expected, with 20,000 spectators over the weekend.
The 2018 Belgian Hang Gliding Open takes place in Tolmin, Slovenia in the first week of July.
Organisers say:
"In the tradition of the Belgian nationals, we want to offer a competition for all XC pilot levels: from beginners to very experienced pilots. The main idea is to have a fair and enjoyable Cat 2 competition for everyone.
While we will not be pushing the limits of what can be done with hang gliding, we will of course ensure that the tasks are long enough to have a fair competition. Safety is high on our priority list and the inviting area allows us to set nice and scenic tasks for all experience levels".
Registration and more information on Airtribune.
The US flatlands of Minnesota are where the Midwest Corn Alps will be held in July 2018. Both hang gliders and paraglider pilots are invited.
"Cosmos, although a small town, has tow roads of gold. You would be surprised how few two-mile sections of rural road are unobstructed by power lines and trees. Cosmos has some of the best. We utilise both N/S and E/W gravel roads for truck tow/platform launches. These are quiet, county roads lined with corn, soybeans, beets and hay for easy bailout LZs as far as you can see".
Pilots need to be USHPA members, rated H2 or above.
The Hang Gliding Pre-Worlds 2018 will be based in Tolmezzo, Friuli Venezia Giulia, in the northeast of Italy and will run from 27 July until 4 August.
Organisers say:
"The competition flying area will develop above extremely different and vast areas: from the sea to the Dolomites, crossing the flatlands, the Alps and the Prealps. The main competition region will be Friuli Venezia Giulia, but pilots could fly also above some other regions and countries: Veneto, Trentino Alto Adige, Slovenia and Austria".
More information and registration at Airtribune.com
If you come to Texas in August for the 16th Big Spring National Series you can expect big Tasks, smooth thermals, unrestricted landing areas and easy retrieval.
In addition, consistent 1pm cumulus development, air-conditioned HQ and free water and ice cream are in store. Organisers say, "We usually fly big distances every day at Big Spring so be prepared physically." You have been warned!
The last stop on the 2018 Acro World Tour before the finals in Sonchaux, Acro Max takes place in Trasaghis, Italy from 12-15 August.
There will be practice sessions for Acro World Tour pilots, and the Italian Aerobatics Paragliding Champions Open, from 9-11 August.

The Dutch Open takes place in Laragne-Monteglin in the French Alps from 19-25 August 2018.
The event is open to hang glider classes 1 (including Sport class) and 5. Information and registration on Airtribune.
The British National Hang Gliding Championships take place in Laragne, southern France, from 26 August – 1 September 2018.

ok - obviously a difficult thread to start without inviting spam or self-promotion - neither of which will be tolerated.
the rule is this:
1) recommend either a mix on youtube, a youtube playlist, a spotify playlist, a soundcloud, mixcloud mix or direct download (you get the idea - other formats tolerated)
2) must be by a third, unrelated party.
3) one mix per post.
4) the more wide-ranging musically the better. new or old music. mix can be strictly hip-hop or strictly rock music - but both would be eligible. as would a genre pile-up.
5) has to be ABSOLUTELY EXCELLENT. no chaff pls.

First Grand Marshal
Grand Marshal
The Grand Marshal and President of the Union were traditionally elected during the spring semester on a date determined by the Student Council. A formal nomination with at least twenty-five signatures had to be submitted to the manager of the Union at least 10 days prior to the election. Candidates are nominated by political parties formed through fraternities or groups of independents. The parties are typically short lived with frequent changes in names and affliations, but the concept has endured.
Elections for Grand Marshal were not held from 1890-1893. A student Union was formed in 1890 and a president was elected along with other officers. This position was viewed as the head of the student body. The Grand Marshal, who had largely been a ceremonial student leader, had seemingly become unnecessary. The position was reinstated in 1894 to arouse student spirit and the previous PU, Athol M. Miller, was elected to the office in December. The traditional spring election was resumed in 1896. The elections were moved to November in 1942 and 1943 and then suspended 1944-1945 due to accelerated course work during World War II.
Grand Marshal Night/Week
A top hat, the symbol of the office, is awarded to the winning candidate on Grand Marshal night. The top hat tradition dates back as far as 1876 when the winning candidate was presented with a silk hat from Boughton's Store during the parade through Troy.
Grand Marshal Night evolved into a week of campaigning, entertainment and contests known as Grand Marshal Week. As other traditions fell by the way side, Grand Marshal Week became the highlight of the academic year.

In 2004, Dan Lasko lost his leg below the knee in Afghanistan while serving in the United States Marine Corps. That wouldn't slow him down, however, as he's battled through the adversity, and has competed on the Wounded Warrior Amputee football and softball teams, and participated in over 30 triathlons. As if a triathlon isn't grueling enough, Dan has had to solely rely on his upper-body strength to swim. According to a New York Times Facebook Live post, his wife, Jess, helps him remove his prosthetic before and after the swimming portions of his triathlons. Now, thanks to a new 3D-printed prosthetic "fin", he, and other amputees, can swim again.
"It feels like I have two legs again in the water, it feels really good," Lasko told FOX 5. "Actually, when I'm swimming I can actually see and feel the water going through the fin. It's pretty amazing."
The fin, which is attached to his prosthesis, is made of nylon. The holes in the design allow water to pass through, and allow the swimmer to propel themselves. Dr. Todd Goldstein of Northwell Health designed it using a 3D printer, and discussed some of the added benefits out of the water.
"You have a hole if you want to wear a flip flop," Dr. Goldstein said. "It also has rubber treads if you don't want to wear a flip flop, so you don't slip on the pool deck."
Swimming is a great, low-impact exercise that can keep athletes and amputees like Dan in shape. However, the most important thing about his new prosthetic is that it allows him to swim with his kids, Ben and Luke.
The fin is expected to be available to everyone by the end of the summer with a price that ranges from $2,000 to $7,000, depending on the amputee's existing prosthesis.
Watch the video to see Dan use his fin to swim with his kids.

Imagine stepping into a car-sized capsule in downtown Los Angeles and, 30 minutes later, emerging in San Francisco
On Monday, billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk unveiled a transportation concept that he said could whisk passengers the nearly 400 miles from Los Angeles to San Francisco in 30 minutes — half the time it takes an airplane.
If it's ever built.
U.S. & World
The day's top national and international news.
His "Hyperloop" system for travel between major cities would use a large tube. Inside, capsules would float on air, traveling at over 700 mph. The air would be sucked by a powerful fan at the front and expelled at the rear.
"Short of figuring out real teleportation, which would of course be awesome (someone please do this), the only option for super fast travel is to build a tube over or under the ground that contains a special environment," Musk wrote in his proposal, posted online.
The system Musk envisions is not unlike the pneumatic tubes that transport capsules stuffed with paperwork in older buildings.
In this case, the cargo would be several people, reclining for the ride.
Coming from almost anyone else, the hyperbole would be hard to take seriously. But Musk has a track record of success. He co-founded online payment service PayPal, electric luxury carmaker Tesla Motors Inc. and rocket-building company SpaceX.
Rod Dirdon Sr., executive director of the Mineta Transportation Institute in San Jose told NBC Bay Area, that he thought the idea was interesting.
"I think we have to use every device possible to get us off petroleum as our power source," he said.
Monday's unveiling lived up to the hype part of its name. Musk posted a 57-page document on his company's website (PDF available here) and tweeted a photo of his vision:
Hyperloop Alpha at http://t.co/ZRTcT2b8bP and http://t.co/7cucKKprPB pic.twitter.com/LYhuRxUntA — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) August 12, 2013
Leading up to the unveiling, done on the SpaceX website, online speculation was feverish. Musk has been dropping hints about his system for more than a year during public events, mentioning that it could never crash and would be immune to weather.
During a Tesla earnings call Thursday, Musk said he is too focused on other projects to consider actually building the Hyperloop.
"I think I kind of shot myself by ever mentioning the Hyperloop," he said. "I don't have any plans to execute, because I must remain focused on SpaceX and Tesla."
He said he would fulfill his commitment to publishing an open-source design, meaning anyone can use it and modify it.
Whether anyone would use it is a good question.
Gina Presby, a train commuter in Silicon Valley, told NBC Bay Area that she thinks the idea is "very innovative. I'm definitely open to it."
But Anita Dujardin, another commuter by train, said, "I'd have to be convinced it's really safe."
NBC Bay Area's George Kiriyama contributed to this report.

He had a fight with his girlfriend outside a restaurant and said he was going to teach her a lesson.
So he began repeatedly banging HIS head against the concrete sidewalk until he was covered with blood. At some point police and paramedics pulled up, and to continue proving his point, he began banging his head repeatedly on the police car's windshield until it shattered.
He then went back to smashing his head on the sidewalk, which continued until he got tasered, and then needed Valium.
The admitting diagnosis was "Self assault"
Exactly what lesson his girlfriend learned from this is unclear, but I suspect it had something to do with getting another boyfriend.

Current commitments on greenhouse gas emissions run out in 2020, so at Paris governments are expected to produce an agreement on what happens for the decade after that at least, and potentially beyond.

Scientists have warned that if greenhouse gas emissions continue to rise, we will pass the threshold beyond which global warming becomes catastrophic and irreversible. That threshold is estimated as a temperature rise of 2C above pre-industrial levels, and on current emissions trajectories 수원출장안마 . That may not sound like much, but the temperature difference between today's world and the last ice age was about 5C, so seemingly small changes in temperature can mean big differences for the Earth.

They have: global negotiations on climate change have been carrying on for more than 20 years. The history of climate change goes back much further: in the 19th century, physicists theorised about the role of greenhouse gases, chiefly carbon dioxide, in the atmosphere, and several suggested that the warming effect would increase alongside the levels of these gases in the atmosphere. But this was all theoretical.
Only in the past few decades have scientists begun the measurements necessary to establish a relationship between current carbon levels and temperatures, and the science conducted since then 온라인바둑이사이트 : that rising greenhouse gas emissions, arising from our use of fossil fuels and our industries, lead to higher temperatures.

No. Global temperatures have been on a clear upward path. There was a spike in 1998, after which temperatures were lower – 천안출장샵 – that led some climate sceptics to claim that the world was cooling.
섯다사이트필리핀 카지노 슬롯 머신
But it is important to note that temperatures have not fallen, or stalled – they have continued to rise. Given the variations that characterise our weather systems, a period in which the rate of warming slowed is not unexpected.
For the past two years, the rate of warming seems to have accelerated again , but little can be construed from that.

In 1992, governments met in Rio de Janeiro and 루비바둑이사이트 . That agreement, still in force, bound governments to take action to avoid dangerous climate change, but did not specify what actions. Over the following five years, governments wrangled over what each should do, and what should be the role of developed countries versus poorer nations.
Those years of argument produced, in 1997, 평택출장샵 . That pact required worldwide cuts in emissions of about 5%, compared with 1990 levels, by 2012, and each developed country was allotted a target on emissions reductions. But developing countries, including China, South Korea, Mexico and other rapidly emerging economies, were given no targets and allowed to increase their emissions at will.
Al Gore, then US vice-president, signed up to the protocol, but it was quickly apparent that it would never be ratified by the US Congress. Legally, the protocol could not come into force until countries representing 55% of global emissions had ratified it. With the US – then the world's biggest emitter – on the outside, that was not going to happen.
So for most of the following decade, the Kyoto protocol remained in abeyance and global climate change negotiations ground to a near-halt. But in late 2004, 창원출장안마 – unexpectedly, and as part of a move to have its application for World Trade Organisation membership accepted by the European Union. That made up the weight needed, and the protocol finally came into force.

Not quite. The US, under George W Bush, remained firmly outside Kyoto, so although the UN negotiations carried on year after year, the US negotiators were often in different rooms from the rest of the world. It was clear a new approach was needed that could bring the US in, and encourage the major developing economies – especially China, now the world's biggest emitter – to take on limits to their emissions.
What followed was, 파라다이스 카지노 an action plan that set the world on the course to a new agreement that would take over from Kyoto.

Everything but the treaty. All of the world's developed countries and the biggest developing countries agreed – for the first time – to limits on their greenhouse gas emissions. This was a landmark, as it meant the world's biggest emitters were united towards a single goal.
The emissions reductions agreed on were still not enough to meet scientific advice, but they were a big advance on reducing emissions compared with "business as usual".
But what didn't happen turned out to be the point that NGOs and many in the press seized on. 제주출장샵 .

It depends on your viewpoint. The Kyoto protocol was a beautifully written, watertight, fully legally binding international treaty, a sub-treaty of the similarly binding UNFCCC. But it never met its objectives, because it wasn't ratified by the US, and not by Russia until it was too late. And 카지노사이트 .
The Copenhagen agreement, on the other hand, was not fully adopted by the UN in 2009 because of last-minute chaos at the conference, though it was ratified the following year 강원 랜드 카지노 후기 . For this reason, the Copenhagen agreement was derided as a failure by green groups.

Nations responsible for more than 90% of global emissions have now come up with their targets – 먹튀 커뮤니티 . These include all of the major developed and developing countries, though their contributions vary: in the case of developed countries, actual cuts in emissions, but for developing countries a range of targets including limits on emissions compared to "business as usual", and pledges to increase low-carbon energy or preserve forests.
Analysis of the INDCS, endorsed by the UN, has suggested that 천안출장샵 . That is not quite enough to meet the scientific advice. However, that is not the end of the story. One of the key components of any Paris agreement would be to institute a system of review of the emissions targets every five years, with a view to ratcheting them upwards.
Another, and complementary, approach is to make more effort to bring down emissions outside the UN process, for instance by engaging "non-state actors" such as cities, local governments and businesses to do more.

Not at all – the other key question, apart from emissions reductions, is finance. Poorer countries want the rich world to provide them with financial help that will enable them to invest in clean technology to cut their greenhouse gas emissions, and to adapt their infrastructure to the likely damage from climate change.
This is a hugely contentious issue. At Copenhagen, where the finance part of the deal was only sorted out at the very last minute, 군산출장안마 , and they said that by 2020, financial flows of at least $100bn a year would be provided.
As a cornerstone of any Paris agreement, poor countries want assurances that this pledge will be met. That has now been given, in several forms: smatoos.xyz showing that two thirds of the finance required is already being supplied; and 포항출장안마 showed that the remainder can be made up by increased finance from the World Bank and other development banks, and from the private sector. The World Bank and several governments have already committed to upping their financial assistance, meaning that a clear path towards the 2020 target can now be discerned.
There is more, however. Poor nations also want a similar provision in place beyond 2020, but there is strong disagreement over how this should be done. Some want all the money to come from rich country governments, but those governments are adamant that they will not provide such funding solely from the public purse. They want international development banks, such as the World Bank, to play a role, and they want most of the funding to come from the private sector.
An agreement on this is still possible, but it will be one of the main obstacles to a Paris deal.

Yes. The heads of state or government of more than 130 countries have already said they will come. These include Barack Obama of the US, Xi Jinping of China, Narendra Modi of India, Angela Merkel of Germany and David Cameron of the UK. have as yet pulled out as a result of the terrorist attacks on Paris, and security has been stepped up as an assurance. Unlike the Copenhagen talks, however, at which world leaders turned up at the last minute of the two weeks of talks to find their negotiating teams in chaos and without a clear agreement for them to sign, this time the leaders will arrive at the beginning of the conference, give their negotiating teams clear instructions, and expect a fully formed agreement at the end of it.
On behalf of the French government, the conference will be led by foreign minister Laurent Fabius, and environment minister Segolene Royal, but the French president Francois Hollande will also play a key role. They are all confident that a deal can be made.

The key question now is over security. With the French capital under recent attack, and reports of fresh assaults averted by the armed forces, the atmosphere in Paris will be unlike any city that has hosted major international talks before. Security will be paramount - the French police and army will be on the streets, and the venue will be patrolled by uniformed UN guards - but the atrocities of 13 November will hang heavily on all delegates. This may mean that when world leaders attend private meetings, terrorism is discussed before climate change. But it may also mean that delegates are under more pressure than ever to come up with a deal, given the tragic circumstances surrounding them.섯다사이트루비바둑이주소☍마카오 슬롯머신☽[카지노 조작]카지노 먹튀⇖슬롯 머신 게임 어플큐바카라 홍보▩마카오 바카라 미니멈β창원출장안마-캐츠비카지노-내국인 카지노☏카지노 가입➻『카지노 테이블』빠 징코 게임☾홀덤 룰☢온라인 바카라 조작╘윈 토토♫섯다사이트인터넷바카라바카라사이트↺강원 랜드 배당금╁(카지노바)카지노 추천♠카지노 썰┠마카오 카지노 콤프◦필리핀 카지노 후기┠온라인 카지노 조작♧마닐라 카지노 호텔◑{카지노 있는 나라}무료 릴 게임✑바카라 확률┉룰렛 카지노╤바카라 노하우┏사다리 토토 사이트⇣강원 랜드 vip 조건⇞〔바카라 사이트 운영〕고스톱게임ニ슬롯머신 규칙┛카지노 앵벌이의 하루カ모 롱고 카지노┻루비바둑이게임◙온라인바카라사이트﹄『온라인바카라 이기는법』호 게임▨바카라 커뮤니티☇강원 랜드 콤프♨호텔카지노♐-우리카지노-현금바둑이사이트-호텔카지노-고스톱사이트⇙바다이야기 게임장﹄〈kangchin〉온라인바둑이◎무료 룰렛 게임ネ마닐라 카지노 롤링╁태양 성↹섯다사이트섯다사이트진주출장샵인터넷 포커 게임캐나다 카지노바다 이야기 무료 다운로드바카라 홍보섯다사이트바카라 예측 프로그램╣33카지노♠『바카라 양방』바카라 중국점 보는법♟홀덤 카페ネ강원 랜드 여자 앵벌이╝바카라 전략﹄바카라 필승법

Mock Public Comments on the Draft EIS for West Virginia's King Coal Highway
This activity was selected for the On the Cutting Edge Reviewed Teaching Collection
This activity has received positive reviews in a peer review process involving five review categories. The five categories included in the process are
- Scientific Accuracy
- Alignment of Learning Goals, Activities, and Assessments
- Pedagogic Effectiveness
- Robustness (usability and dependability of all components)
- Completeness of the ActivitySheet web page
For more information about the peer review process itself, please see https://serc.carleton.edu/teachearth/activity_review.html.
This page first made public: Apr 11, 2013
After learning about the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) process and the development of Environmental Impact Statements (EISs), students will review relevant sections of the Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement for the King Coal Highway project in Mingo County, West Virginia. The EIS includes analysis of socioeconomic and environmental justice impacts of the proposed project. Students will prepare comments from the point of view of an assigned group or organization, including town counsels, public health organizations, environmental advocacy groups, coal industry associations, and minority advocacy organizations.
Learning Goals
- Develop data analysis, synthesis of ideas, and critical thinking skills by drafting comments in response to an EIS.
- Develop written and oral presentation skills by drafting and presenting public comments to an EIS.
- How to evaluate environmental issues from different—and often competing—perspectives (industry, environmental protection, economic development, public health, and environmental justice).
- Experience the public comment process that is so integral to NEPA regulation and enforcement.
- Appreciate the importance and difficulty of public participation in environmental regulation.
- Environmental justice is addressed by having students represent and respond to the EIS on behalf of low-income neighborhoods and minority advocacy groups.
Context for Use
This exercise will occur early in the course after an introductory lecture on the history and status of Environmental Justice regulation, and at the culmination of a unit entitled "Regulating the Regulator", which focuses on the role of government agencies in the regulatory process. This activity could easily be adapted to other settings as long as students have an adequate introduction to (1) the NEPA (National Environmental Policy Act) process, (2) the development of Environmental Impact Statements (EISs), (3) the role of public comments, and (4) the basic concepts, history, and issues of Environmental Justice.
Description and Teaching Materials
Outside of class, students will prepare a presentation and comments to the EIS from the point of view of specific groups and organizations. Comments should be between 2-5 pages and oral presentation should be between 8 and 10 minutes. Students will present their comments "in character". Depending on class size, the students may be paired up or placed in groups to develop comments. Potential groups and organizations include the following:
- West Virginia Community Voices, Inc.: http://www.wvvoices.org/ ("West Virginia Community Voices works to improve health care for underserved populations in West Virginia through the development of state and community partnerships.")
- Mingo County Commission: http://www.mingocountywv.com/
- Mingo County Redevelopment Authority: http://www.mcra-wv.org/?q=home
- Delbarton, WV Town Counsel: http://www.delbartonwv.us/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=49&Itemid=62
- Partnership of African American Churches: http://www.paac2.org/about.php ("While PAAC serves all communities, it intentionally targets African American communities in West Virginia. The PAAC is a specific initiative driven organization focusing on community and individual well-being which involves both policy change and programmatic implementation.")
- West Virginia Coal Association: http://www.wvcoal.com/ ("Located in Charleston, W.Va., the West Virginia Coal Association is a trade association representing more than 90 percent of the state's underground and surface coal mine production. Its purpose is to have a unified voice representing the state's coal industry as well as increase emphasis on coal as a reliable energy source to help the nation achieve energy independence.")
- Ruth Trace Neighborhood Property Owners Association: Does not exist, but students will assume for purposes of this exercise that residents have organized. The Ruth Trace neighborhood could see residential displacement of up to 40 out of 50 households.
Teaching Notes and Tips
2) At any given time, there are many EISs which are open for public review and comment. Information about other EISs may be found here:
3) Because I think students should be able to think about environmental issues and appreciate their complexity from multiple perspectives, I suggest that students should not choose which group or organization they will represent, but rather the instructor make the assignment.
4) Depending on where the EIS is in the NEPA process, some groups may have submitted comments in the past. For example, for the King Coal Highway project, Appalachian Mountain Advocates has submitted comments on two different occasions. I do not plan to highlight this to students, though they will catch it if they give the EIS a thorough reading. Savvy students may be able to get their hands on previous comments and use them to inform their own comments. I think I would prefer that they try to come up with their own responses, but would not penalize them for being resourceful. ☺

El Paso names Murphy first manager
Major League veterans Jones, Cather join Chihuahuas staff
By El Paso Chihuahuas | December 3, 2013 2:38 PM
Pat Murphy has been named the first manager in El Paso Chihuahuas history, the Chihuahuas and San Diego Padres announced today. The Chihuahuas' inaugural 2014 season will be Murphy's fifth in the Padres organization and second as the Triple-A manager.
Murphy led Triple-A Tucson to a 77-67 record last season, good for fifth-best in the 16-team Pacific Coast League. In 2011 and 2012, Murphy managed Eugene, posting the best record in the Northwest League both seasons. The Padres hired Murphy in 2010 as a special assistant to baseball operations.
"The El Paso Chihuahuas are fortunate to have a proven winner like Pat Murphy as the first manager in team history," said Chihuahuas general manager Brad Taylor. "Pat's commitment and understanding of the team's role in our community is also a huge asset."
"It is a great privilege to be part of a new beginning in El Paso professional baseball," said Murphy. "I am really excited for the season and look forward to getting to know the El Paso community. It is a wonderful opportunity."
Before joining the Padres organization, Murphy was one of the most successful coaches in college baseball, accumulating 1,000 career wins before age 50, a feat accomplished by only two other coaches in history. His Arizona State Sun Devils strung together 47 consecutive Top 10 rankings from 2007-2009. Murphy also had tremendous success at Notre Dame, where the locker room facility is named the "Pat Murphy Clubhouse" to honor his stint as Fighting Irish head coach from 1988-1994.
Murphy pitched four seasons professionally, including one year with San Diego's Class A Advanced Salem affiliate in 1983.
Jacque Jones will serve as the Chihuahuas' hitting coach in 2014. A Major Leaguer from 1999-2008, Jones joins the Chihuahuas from Double-A San Antonio, where his Missions led the Texas League in batting average last season. Jones played for the Minnesota Twins, Chicago Cubs, Detroit Tigers and Florida Marlins in his 10-year Major League career.
Mike Cather will be the Chihuahuas' first pitching coach. Cather worked as San Diego's Minor League pitching coordinator from 2012-2013 and previously served as a pitching coach in the Boston Red Sox system from 2006-2009. Originally drafted by the Texas Rangers in 1993, Cather reached the Major Leagues with Atlanta in 1997 and pitched three seasons for the Braves.
The Chihuahuas' 2014 athletic trainer will be Nathan Stewart, who joined the Padres organization in 2006. Stewart previously served as the athletic trainer for Eugene, Fort Wayne, San Antonio and Tucson.

I have been stitching a bit this month, but my progress is slow. First, I finished the CCN Gingerbread Cottage. I think it is really cute. This will be a present for one of my sisters.
Next, I finished LHN Two White Houses. If you are familiar with the piece you will notice that it is a bit different from the original. I was at a friend's stitching and mentioned that I didn't like the alphabet in the pattern and she suggested that I not stitch it. Can I do that? Well, yes, you absolutely can. So, I followed her suggestion. I really like this pattern and will finish it as a stand up for my Thanksgiving decorations.
Finally, I had this little piece in my stack of "to do". It was very easy and very cute. I will finish it as a pin keep.
I am still stitching on LHN Two Red Houses, Jenny Bean Halloween Sampler, and the stocking for Nicholas. I might be able to finish one of these in the next few days.
I can't believe that November is almost over and the holiday season is here. Fortunately, this year I am in a much happier mood.

Long overdue update...

November is going to be a great month for stitching...
I am so excited about how well I am doing with my list of projects. This summer I decided to work mainly from my existing stash and try to get some of these older projects completed. Well, the new patterns that came out in early fall were wonderful, so I did purchase several new things, but I have really plowed through a lot of my older stuff, too.
This month, I wanted to finish some of the Halloween patterns that I have collected. I posted some of the smaller ones on my blog last month, but I am happy to say that I have finished one more. This is L'automne d' Anne by Tournicoton. I really like her designs. This one looks like a child's coloring page to me. It was a lot of fun to stitch and turned out really cute. I really love this designer too...
So much so that I also purchased her newest Christmas pattern this weekend. I still need to find the right fabric, but this is in my bag of "Things to stitch" for November.
I am also making great progress on Theresa's Jenny Bean Halloween Sampler. I really love this one. The fabric is 40 ct, which is very small for me, but I love working on it. I stitch on this piece while I watch Ghost Whisperer, just to get the mood right. I am hoping I can finish it in the next week or so because I have the Jenny Bean Christmas sampler in my bag also. I need to pick up the fabric and threads still, but can't wait to start on that one.
This weekend, I went through my basket of patterns and picked out 5 projects to add to my list. These include LHN Two White Houses, LHN Two Red Houses, CCN Gingerbread Cottage, Barbara Anna's Winter Biscornu and The Trilogy Autumn Tree. I have already started on the Gingerbread Cottage and Autumn Tree. Actually, I am almost finished with the Autumn Tree (very small piece). These are the patterns I hope to finish this month. Keep your fingers crossed because I just have a feeling that my fingers will be moving at supersonic speeds this month.

My many dealings with pro-abortion liberal males has convinced me over and again that they are at heart unreconstructed misogynists.
I knew this long before I was converted to the pro life viewpoint. I knew it when I was the Oklahoma Director for NARAL. I knew it back when I was killing pro life bills as a young pro choice legislator.
All you have to do is hang out with them for a while, listen to their self-congratulatory talk about how they are the only men on the planet who "support women's rights" (abortion.) Couple that with the contempt for women, the personal mistreatment they mete out to the women in their lives, the misogynist, sexualizing way they subtly degrade women and support the degradation of women in everything from porn to prostitution to rent-a-womb pregnancy surrogates.
Put the self-proclaimed "feminism" of these men alongside their actual behavior, and what you see is a hypocritical lie. They are misogynists who have been empowered by a corrupted feminist movement that has devolved down to nothing more than a pro abortion movement.
Abortion is the cad's best friend in his treatment of women. Abortion allows misogynist men to pick and chose which of their children they will cherish and which they will encourage their women to kill. Abortion helps the rapist hide, and encourages the lothario to dump the woman he's involved with at one of the most vulnerable times in her life; when she is pregnant with his child.
I ran across a video essay on NBCNEWS by Toure Neblett, in which he declaims proudly, "Thank God for abortion." His reason? Abortion on demand allowed him, along with a woman he describes as "just not the right one," to kill his first child. Abortion relieved him of the monstrous responsibility of fatherhood at "the wrong time."
He tells us that he "would not be the person" he is today without this freeing experience of putting his baby to death. You get the feeling that he believes that this would be a loss of incomparable proportions for all humanity.
But he bounces back from this momentary lapse into something bordering conscience with assurances that it would be "misogynist" for him to regret the fact that he helped murder his own baby.
Watching this video saddens me. This unashamed and absolute lack of empathy by one human being for another human being is mind boggling. This is a man telling us with no doubt or regret that he helped kill his own child and that killing his child was the moral and right thing to do. Why? Because killing the child was the "best thing" for him, his career and his future.
I think he is right when he says that he wouldn't be the man he is today if he had chosen differently. A man who choses to inconvenience himself by accepting the responsibilities of fatherhood, who actually loves all his children and not just the one who fits the self-indulgent, self-centered, self-deifying game plan he has worked out for his life, would not even resemble the man Toure is today.
"Thank God for abortion," Toure tells us.
All I can say is Thank God for real men, like my husband and my father, who wanted and loved their children from the moment they began to exist. Thank God for men who do not choose to kill one child and cherish another, but who love, support and raise every child that God gives them.
Maybe I should just shorten that down to the actual point.
Thank God for real men.

New deal for Terry
Chelsea captain John Terry has signed a one-year contract extension, the Premier League club have announced.
The 33-year-old captain has enjoyed a strong season after being rejuvenated by the return of Jose Mourinho as manager.
Terry, who graduated from Chelsea's academy and made his first-team debut in 1998, has signed a new deal until the end of the 2014/15 campaign.
Next season will be Terry's 17th in the first-team.
The defender, who joined the club age 14, has played 621 games for Chelsea, scoring 57 goals, and has been captain on 490 occasions.
He has won three Premier League titles, the 2012 Champions League, 2013 Europa League, five FA Cups (2000, 2007, 2009, 2010, 2012), two League Cups (2005, 2007) and the Community Shield (2005, 2009).
Terry said on chelseafc.com: "I'm delighted to have signed an extension to my contract with Chelsea taking me into my 20th year with the club.
"I'd like to thank the fans and club for their continued support, and the manager who was instrumental for me the last season."
Offers were forthcoming from elite clubs abroad, but Terry's preference was always to stay at Stamford Bridge.
His current deal was due to expire on June 30, and while his future has been determined, it is still uncertain if two other Chelsea stalwarts will remain at the club next season.
Chelsea's record goalscorer Frank Lampard, who is 36 in June, and Ashley Cole, who may be tempted to play elsewhere after being a peripheral figure this term, are both imminently out of contract.
Mourinho, who presented his end-of-season report to the Chelsea hierarchy on Monday, insisted he wanted all three to stay.
He now has his wish regarding Terry.
Chelsea chief executive Ron Gourlay said: "We are very pleased John, who is an undoubted Chelsea legend, will continue to lead the team next season, as he has done for so many years with unrivalled achievement.
"Both Chelsea FC and John have been clear throughout that we wanted his outstanding career at the club to continue, and it is important the matter has been concluded so soon after the end of the season, allowing us to look forward to and plan for 2014/15."
After watching from afar before returning to Stamford Bridge last June, Mourinho wondered if Terry's time was up.
But he gave the skipper from his trophy-laden first spell from June 2004 to September 2007 an opportunity to prove himself and Terry did not disappoint.
The Portuguese described Terry as the Premier League's leading defender earlier this season.
"My captain is playing at the same level as when I left Chelsea in 2007/08," Mourinho said last month ahead of the Champions League semi-final second leg with Atletico Madrid.
"Six or seven years later he is playing at his best level. It's fair to say that."
Terry, who made 47 appearances this season, enjoyed such a successful season alongside Gary Cahill that the clamour for him to make himself available for England duty once more grew.
Terry retired from international football in the wake of the Anton Ferdinand race saga and after twice being stripped of the England captaincy.
Last month he ruled out the possibility of an England return.
Terry said: "I'm going to be on my holidays in the summer, I'm going to be nowhere else.
"I've made that very clear. My thoughts are very strong on that - maybe people don't realise how strong."
Indeed, it could be argued making himself unavailable for international duty has prolonged Terry's club career, something which appears now is likely to end at Chelsea.
