New Hope Community Church Youth Group will be busing tables and Girl Scout Troop 2141 will be helping with parking during the fundraiser.
Popular local band, Honkywood, has also donated a home concert. Certain stipulations apply: $500 minimum bid; must be within a 50 mile radius of Charlestown; band has to be on a patio/stage; if outdoors, band must be covered due to inclement weather and the date must not interfere with any prior scheduled events for Honkywood. The winner also receives a Honkywood sign to keep as a memento.
On September 9, 2013 Danny, a 33 year veteran and past Chief of the fire department, was assisting a stalled car by pushing it off the road safely to the edge when he collapsed. They almost lost him twice that day, but he put up the biggest fight of his life and came back to his loved ones. Since then he has suffered a heart attack, a stroke (partially paralyzing his left side), and collapse of his left lung. He has undergone many different medical procedures. He spent 29 days in ICU, then two days in rehab, back to the hospital for an additional seven days. He was released from rehab on Sunday, November 10. He still has a long road of recovery ahead of him.
Before this incident his wife, Angie had back surgery and has not been able to return to work.
Due to his many years of unselfish help the New Washington Volunteer Firefighters are now asking their community to join them in helping show support. They are asking local churches, and businesses to help provide. All donations will receive a receipt upon request for a tax deduction. Food to be served: bean/potato soup, cornbread, hot dogs, smoked Boston Butt, desserts, tea and lemonade for refreshments.
For those unable to attend there are also collections jars at the following locations:
*Ace Hardware – New Washington and Scottsburg Locations
*Coopers Corner – Charlestown
*Copper Kettle Restaurant – Charlestown
*Four Quarters – New Washington
*Hoopsters – New Washington and Jeffersonville
*Leroy's Store/Restaurant – Lexington
*Marysville Hardware – Marysville
*The New Washington State Bank – All locations
*Orscheln Farm and Home – Charlestown
It is the hope of Stoner's firefighter family to show him the support that he has shown to so many friends and strangers in his years of service to the community, and the surrounding areas through mutual aid.
When asked to help promote the fundrasier, David Abbott, Sr., was quick to help.
"Rachel asked if I could help get the word out. I just wanted to do what I could to help Danny," Abbott stated. "I want the entire community to come together and help a man who has spent his life helping others. Danny has been with the New Washington Volunteer Fire Department for 33 years, serving as Chief from 1997 to 1999. He always answered the call, no matter what time of day or night, now it is time for the community to answer the call to help Danny."
Abbott concluded, "The fundraiser is Saturday. Now is the time to help one who has dedicated his life to helping others. We want everyone to come out and have a bowl of soup, enjoy some time with family and friends and maybe even pick up a few Christmas presents at the auction. Let's all come together to show Danny the community is supporting him 100 percent!"

Regrets. Very brief thoughts on agenda items below. 6. Implementation (Should difficulty in implementation affect priority.) CMN: No 9. Access for absolutely all? - If not, how to draw line (one suggestion was "BEST EFFORT") CMN: If we have no techniques or success criteria then we have no checkpoint, and therefore we have not worked out how to solve problem XYZ. So we'll work on it. 10. Guidelines for all sites vs. special sites CMN: We are having enough trouble doing general guidelines and working out what is required. When we get there we should think about what are the next required steps. 12. Accessibility vs. usability CMN: If we have some kind of concept that says "thisis is essential, this is is imprtant, this is helpful" then we need not worry about whether it is accessibility or usability, just about the impact for users with disabilities. 13. Conformance - why do it? How to test? To be a W3C specification it is imortant to know if what has been done is what is specified. We should be able to provide success criteria that can be tested for each of the requirements for conformance. 14. Author and user needs conflict cmn: We describe what need to be done for users to get access to content. We shouldn't describe things that are helpful as necessary, or specify a method when we mean a problem. 15. User and user needs conflict CMN: If these arise we need to work out how to solve them. Until then, this is a red herring.Received on Tuesday, 25 September 2001 21:11:33 UTC

While the notebook got leaked a couple of days ago, Sony has now officially announced it will be releasing the Vaio Duo 11, a touch screen notebook-tablet hybrid that will run on Windows 8. The product was part of Sony's press event held in Berlin earlier today.
The Vaio Duo 11 will have a slider design that exposes the physical keyboard. It will also come with a digitizer stylus for the touch screen.
Sony has also announced the Vaio Tap 20, a 20 inch all-in-one desktop PC with a touch screen. The product has a built in stand, but that stand can also be adjusted so that the Tap20 can actually lay flat, to become a really big tablet. Both of the products will come with Sony's new Clear Audio+ software, which is supposed to be an improvement over the standard audio features on regular PCs.
No other information on either products, including hardware specs, pricing and a specific release date, was announced at the press event. If Sony sends out a press release with the hardware specs and more information on the Vaio Duo 11 and the Vaio Tap20 later today, we will update this news post.
Update: Sony has offered up some more information on both products in official press releases. Consumers can choose from an Intel Core i3, i5 or i7 processor for the Vaio Duo 11, along with 4 GB or 8 GB of RAM and either an 128 GB or 256 GB SSD. The 11.6 inch screen will have a resolution of 1920x1080, two cameras (front and rear) two USB 3.0 ports and a HDMI port.
The Vaio Tap 20 also comes with the choice of an Intel Core i3, i5 or i7 processor, along with 4 GB or 8 GB of RAM and either an 750 GB or 1 TB hard drive. The 20 inch screen will have a resolution of 1600x900, along with a web cam and two USB 3.0 ports.

Forums → The Tavern → The Weather
I love the weather and have always been interested in it. To me, the creation of incredible storms and the patterns of heat, wind, fronts, and pressure systems in absolutely incredible, especially since many of these things still baffle humans!
I want to know: does anybody share my interest? Any other weather buffs out there? Or, some interesting story or fact about the weather?
Please, share it here!

A cumulous nimbus creates lightning! thats all i know. but i do enjoy thunder storms.
Me too! Were I live the weather likes to play nasty tricks: storms will head toward my town, then suddenly break or disappear! I get so angry!
I live in the Ohio Valley area, and we get the worst thunderstorms. We haven't had any tornados (knock on wood), but the storm season is just peaking, so it's gonna be a bumpy ride!
i like that zakyman. I live in Maine and we just a tornado a week or so ago, and we never get those type of disasters...but the heat is here and it's not even summer and im already dying...heat and I are like oil and water..... heat! BAH! >.<
I wish I could get more storms. I live in Iowa, and systems come through all the time, yet my town seems to always get missed!
It has also been intolerable. The past few days it's been in the upper 90's with high humidity... I'm used to psychotic weather (I mean, it's Iowa), but we're not even getting storms from this until late tomorrow...
I'm getting bored with it.
heat and I are like oil and water..... heat! BAH! >.<
come to NY during the winter man ull learn to love heat and hate the cold and u could always shove ice cubes down ur pants to cool off
It is like taht in wisconsin here so everyone likes spring and fall
Global Warming make people bad this season
The weather changes sporadically here. One day it'll be nice outside with decent weather, then the next day it'll be above ninety degrees.
After that we'll have a thunder storm. My ideal weather is sixty-seventy degrees, windy, and sunny.
thunder storm
in America every month
I live in Halifax, Nova Scotia, where it has rained/been cloudy since mid-March. It's boring. But thunderstorms are awesome, though we don't get many, and we do have the occasional hurricane.
you live good location
I am pretty interested in major storms and tornadoes and hurricanes and stuff like that but it is pretty confusing to me.
I am pretty interested in major storms and tornadoes and hurricanes and stuff like that but it is pretty confusing to me.
I totally agree with you!
I love the severe storms and stuff; they're so cool! Thunderheads, tornadoes, all that stuff is very intriguing to me. I marvel at how all of it gets organized and yet humans don't understand all of it!
If you are wondering how something in weather works, I may be able to help. I know quite a bit. But I'm not an expert.
Anyone see the lightning over the volcano? Type in "chilean volcano lightning" on Google Images. It looks awesome.
This one is neat.

Another day, another lesson in dysfunction from the folks who run Hillsborough County schools.
They're bad enough with the small stuff, like the School Board twisting itself in knots over buying some school buses, with discussion after tortured discussion. And how hard is it to buy buses, particularly when the state provides a handy catalog?
So in true bureaucratic fashion, the board took a hard stance and …
Voted to hire a consultant and agreed to hold a workshop!
Then there are bigger problems, like the sort of petty politics that seem to outshine the actual issues facing the eighth-largest school district in the lower 48.
Here's a for-instance:
Over the summer, school superintendent MaryEllen Elia was caught apparently unaware on a microphone during a break at a School Board meeting, talking with the district's lawyer about getting people to meetings to counter critics who spoke up.
The two agreed that April Griffin — School Board chairwoman and Elia critic — was, when it came to letting those speakers go off topic, "in on it."
How … conspiratorial.
And that scene pretty much sums up the long-simmering dynamic between a very powerful superintendent and a very vocal chairwoman. And not in a good way.
Griffin raised eyebrows herself this week with news of how she intervened on behalf of a tennis player at Plant High over residency. It's been a sensitive issue: whether student-athletes live in the boundaries of the school for which they want to play — or bend the rules to make it look like they do.
Griffin used her School Board stationery and, as she put it, her "capacity as the chairwoman" to appeal to state officials a decision to not allow a girl to play at Plant after an investigation into whether she really lived there. (Her parents said they divided time between two homes, one in the Plant district and one not.)
And so Griffin took some deserved licks for overstepping, working outside the system, abusing her position and sidestepping staff and the superintendent on this. She says she acted on behalf of a constituent against a badly handled decision and did nothing inappropriate.
And under all this simmers, again, that bad dynamic.
Here's how Griffin herself described it to me: People used to refer to the school district as a good ol' boy kind of place.
Now, they're seen as "a mean-girl organization," she says — something she says she's worked to avoid.
In the case of the tennis player, Elia did not write a letter to state officials as Griffin urged her to and instead backed her staff. Griffin thinks Elia leaked the story to the press. She has called Elia a bully and says Elia's words caught on that microphone were an example of the superintendent's "disdain for the public." (She's waiting for an apology on that one. She should probably not hold her breath.)
Elia did not comment on Griffin's comments.
A check on, and even a vocal critic of, a powerful superintendent is not necessarily a bad thing. But the chairwoman shouldn't blow the opportunity by overreaching on things like this Plant High dustup.
And old boys and mean girls?
This one seems to be more about power plays — which doesn't exactly inspire confidence in the people who run our schools.

resonance of electrons or atoms or molecules or nuclei to radiation frequencies as a result of space quantization in a magnetic field
magnetic resonance(n.)
A phenomenon resulting from quantization in the magnetic field of electrons or atoms or molecules or nuclei exposed to an external magnetic field, by which a narrow frequency band of radio waves may be absorbed and re-emitted by the object.
Chaldean Numerology

Pythagorean Numerology
The numerical value of magnetic resonance in Pythagorean Numerology is: 4
Sample Sentences & Example Usage
Adults with sudden back pain do not need to rush to get an X-ray or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), unless the clinician suspects the patient has a more serious condition, such as fracture or cancer, less than 5 percent of patients with low back pain, however, will fall into this category.
The economy is changing with an emphasis on technology skills across all sectors. The emphasis now is that not all STEM jobs require four-year degrees. When I was growing up, you had what were called 'blue collar jobs,' now you have technicians who need to be highly skilled in tech. You need people who can repair MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) machines, or work on electric cars, you now need technicians who need to have really hard STEM skills. That's a skill set that will be growing over the next five years, it will be more in demand, and giving students the foundation for those kinds of careers starts in school.

Several films vie for top pick in good week to stay home and watch movies
Published 11:21 am, Tuesday, December 4, 2012
Pick of the week: "ParaNorman" (PG) Story of a boy who not only sees dead people but talks to them, as well, may be too intense for kids under 10 or so. The rest of us, though, will revel in the delightful story that may be the best kids vs. monsters tale since "Goonies." A-
"The Apparition" (PG-13) Story of a couple moving into a home where a malevolent entity was released years before is utterly lifeless. It gives away its biggest trick on the poster advertising the film. My deepest sympathies if you paid to see this in the theater. I paid a dollar to rent it and still feel robbed. F
"The Ballad of Genesis and Lady Jaye" (R) Odd documentary about performance artist and musician Genesis Breyer P-Orridge (Throbbing Gristle, Psychic TV) and his wife, who physically started a series of surgical transformations to become more physically similar. The film would not look much different from silly home movies from the '60s as we watch the couple dance around, hold hands and mug for the camera. But as their appearances change, it's obvious the footage is more than that. But is it art? My jury is still out. C
"Christmas With Holly" Heart tugger about a man trying to raise his dead sister's daughter, who hasn't spoken since her mother died. Tom Cruise lookalike Sean Faris -- known more for action roles -- brings a winning smile and a way with kids to the table, balanced nicely by Daniel Eric Gold and Dana Watkins playing his brothers as the trio strive to bring normalcy to the girl. Highly recommended family fare pre mieres Sunday night on ABC. A-
"Dark Horse" (not rated) Writer-director Todd Solondz nicely makes the transition from quirky comedy-dramas ("Welcome to the Dollhouse," "Happiness") to just dramas with this story of an insecure, overweight man-child who falls for a clinically depressed woman. Unlike his other films, which get almost uncomfortable to watch sometimes, though never enough so to stop watching, this character study has you rooting for the guy despite his foibles. B
"The Day" (R) The black and white format is about the only thing that distinguishes this dystopian story from countless others though it's not unwatchable. It draws similarities to "The Road," which is too bad because "The Road" is a vastly superior film. B-
"Lawless" (R) The true story of a trio of bootlegger brothers is remarkable because it doesn't romanticize the subject the way so many in the genre have. Based on Matt Bondurant's book about his grandfather, the story was adapted by Nick Cave, the former frontman for Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, who has reinvented himself as one of the most inventive writers in film. His way with words coupled with an action sensibility that doesn't skimp on bullets are worhty of a B+.
"The Proposition" has propelled that film to cult status. While director John Hillcoat -- a longtime collaborator with Cave in music and film -- does a terrific job with the story, I credit Cave for bringing Bondurant's story to life. B+
"Men in Black 3" (PG-13) The franchise may never wear out its welcome if it can keep coming up with inventive ideas. In this case, casting Josh Brolin as a young K was a stroke of near-genius. A-
"The Girl" (TVMA) While "Hitchcock," playing in theaters, tells the story of the Master of Suspense's romance and marriage to Alma Reville during the filming of "Psycho" in 1958, the other tale about Alfred Hitchcock -- now showing on HBO and available on Video on Demand -- is told from the perspective of actress Tippi Hedren and her relationship with "Hitch" during the making of "The Birds" and "Marnie." Toby Jones' remarkable, spot on take on Hitchcock alone is worth the price. While things get a little muddled in the second act, the portrayal if Hitchcock as a confident filmmaker but insecure man whose passive aggressiveness toward Hedren when she rejects his romantic advances, makes you wonder how she put up with him. And it really makes you wonder why she went on to make another movie with him. DID YOU KNOW? Hedren's daughter, who is portrayed in the film, also pursued an acting career. She is Melanie Griffith. B
"Sparkle" (PG-13) Although it is immensely different from the 1978 original, it its core is the story of a young singer yearning to make it big. Sadly, at the core of this film, for now, is the final performance of Whitney Houston. And regardless of the offscreen trauma that surrounded her life and death, she steals the show, making all the extraneous events all the more tragic. As a film, though, it is nothing terrible special, adding a new set of songs but relying mostly on the same killer songs Curtis Mayfield penned for the first. B-
"Step Up Revolution" (PG-13) The gist of the franchise has the dance style fusions, melding ballet with street dance styles in a series of routines held together by the same plot the genre has been using since times immemorial -- the kids need to raise money to save something or someone. This one doesn't vary from that -- initially. As it tries to break from the pack, which it does, the story grows a social conscious without missing a beat. Oh, and the dance routines? From the jaw-dropping popping and locking in the opening number featuring a human-car duet, the routines are the best the franchise has offered. B+
"Tom and Jerry: Robin Hood and His Merry Mouse" (G) This straight-to-video feature film marks another effort by Warner Brothers Studios, which took over the franchise in 2006, to revive the animated cat-and-mouse series started by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera for MGM in 1940. Sadly, this may not be the vehicle that will accomplish that. The animation is decent but the story and especially the musical numbers are beneath the standards the furry rivals deserve. C

My husband and I rented this property for our honeymoon for 27 days. Hearing mixed reviews about the different areas of Hawaii, and never having been to Hawaii before we had no idea where we would be staying or what we would be getting with this rental. This place was breathtaking! Tucked away in the hills of the Makaha Valley, this property is a GEM! The owner was so helpful giving us a list of favorite local spots, and answering every single question I had. The only thing he failed to do was brag enough about how AMAZING this place would be!
The pictures of this property and the views shown do it absolutely no justice. This property is immaculately clean and very tastefully decorated. It comes fully stocked with ALL of the comforts of home, so much in fact we hardly wanted to leave the complex because we had everything we needed right there. It is a hop, skip, and jump to the laundry facilities, and conveniently located just next to the elevator. The grounds look like a resort with gorgeous peacocks roaming freely, and the sound of baby mountain goats echoing from the mountain. Aside from the peacocks talking to each other, this place is quiet and peaceful ALL the time! The pool and BBQ area are perfect for outdoor entertaining and as long as you respect the rules of the complex, the residents there are delightful!
It is a short, beautiful walk to one of the most beautiful, peaceful local beaches on the island where there is always sea turtles, and according to the locals, a great place to spot whales as well. It is and super close to town. There is a bus stop conveniently located just in front of the complex, and it is less than an hour drive to Waikiki/Honolulu, but just far enough away from the touristy hustle and bustle of the larger cities to really give you a taste of what real Hawaii is all about.
I could go on, and on, I can not say enough about this property, it truly made our stay magical! It is worth every penny and then some, if we ever return to Hawaii, this is the only place we will stay.

By Hindustan Times
Bollywood actor Salman Khan is the flavour of the season. With an excellent track record and promising upcoming flicks, the actor has started demanding a staggering Rs. 1.75 crore for attending events. In addition to this, the actor also wants to be ferried in chartered flights, reports Mumbai Mrirror.
According to buzz, the Dabangg actor said not to a Rs. 1 crore offer that also included chartered flight for a couple of events in Dubai.
If the tabloid's sources are to be believed, it's the superstar's manager Reshma Shetty who has advised Salman on hiking his fee.
Salman's upcoming projects look promising. The actor is doing Ek Tha Tiger with Katrina Kaif. He will play a superhero with special powers for the first time in his career in brother Sohail Khan's Sher Khan.
Salman Khan has also reportedly signed Shirish Kunder's Kick.
Kick is the Hindi remake of the Tamil superhit Thillalangadi, which was remade in Telugu and titled Kick. The Telugu version starred actors Ravi Teja and Ileana D'Cruz. The Hindi remake is being produced by Sajid Nadiadwala.

Greener, I. (2008) 'Markets in the public sector : when do they work, and what do we do when they don't ?', Policy and politics., 36 (1). pp. 93-108.
There is a danger that we have become so used to the idea of markets in the public sector that they become taken for granted. This article first problematises the terms 'market' and 'public', before going on to talk about markets as they are being used in present policy, and applying a morphogenetic-inspired analysis of their use. Finally, it attempts to work out when and where markets might work in the public sector, and what we might do in terms of public reform where they do not.

The event also sees the formal launch of Airdrieonians' free season-ticket scheme for youngsters under the age of 16.
The League One club's supporters' trust, who are funding and managing the initiative, will have a colourful presence in the town centre.
A voucher entitling the holder to a free under-16s season ticket will be handed over in return for old or unwanted football kit, which can be from any club.
The kit will then be shipped out to poor countries across the world - after the trust linked up with charity KitAid.
Trust chair Willie Marshall said: "There has been a good response so far to what we're trying to do and we will have 20 or 30 volunteers on the day.
"Everybody is buzzing for it and we will be handing out 1000 leaflets in the town centre to spread the word. We will also be pushing membership for the Airdrie Aces and the trust.
"Airdrie fans are really backing this scheme and there is a feelgood factor. We've had a lot of support on social media sites like Facebook and Twitter."
The trust is also launching its own bottled lager - named ML6 - which has come off the production line at the Lerwick brewery on the Shetland Islands. Around 20p from every bottle will go into the supporters' group's coffers.
"It's been quite an exciting project to work on," said sales manager Alison Graham who works for the company and lives in Glenmavis. "The lager has a strength of 4.8 per cent and we're looking forward to being at the Wee Fair Day."
Event organisers Town Centre Activities Ltd say this year's Wee Fair promises to be the biggest and best yet, and hope to see a bumper turnout.

IPL 9: Rohit Sharma special muscles Mumbai Indians home

After a string of one-sided matches, the Indian Premier League 2016 was badly in need of a tight match to get itself going, and desperately looked to Kolkata Knight Riders and Mumbai Indians to provide that much-required boost.
After all, Mumbai and Kolkata are the only two sides—apart from the suspended Chennai Super Kings—to have won the title twice in the past. The two sides lived up to expectations and battled hard but Rohit Sharma's brilliant unbeaten 54-ball 84 meant it was the visitors who came out on top with a six-wicket win at the Eden Gardens on Wednesday.
The drama started well ahead of the match, with tremors across the stadium minutes before the toss. Once that was done with, the cricket took over, and didn't disappoint. Half-centuries from Gautam Gambhir (64) and Manish Pandey (52) had taken Kolkata to a competitive 187 for 5 before Rohit continued his love affair with the Eden to complete a clinical chase with five balls to spare.
The target was stiff but Mumbai made it look easy, largely because they executed a simple but effective plan—bat around Rohit. The captain played a steady hand and guided the chase while the rest took their chances.
Given Kolkata's array of spinners, Mumbai realised they had to go hard against the pacers in the Power Play. That is exactly what Rohit and Parthiv Patel did, taking Andre Russell and John Hastings to the boundary regularly. Rohit set the tone, casually whipping the third ball of the innings, from Russell, over deep square-leg and Parthiv followed suit, cutting and pulling for fours.
Parthiv ran himself out against the run of play in the sixth over but Mumbai already had a good start with 53 on the board in the Power Play.
With a shaky middle order to follow, the onus was on Rohit to guide his side through the rest of the chase. He did just that, pacing his innings beautifully to gradually take control over the situation. He lost Hardik Pandya after the half-way stage but Mumbai innovated with success—aided by some poor catching by Kolkata—by promoting Mitchell McClenaghan to No. 4.
He started by blasting the second ball he faced, from Piyush Chawla, over the sightscreen and followed it up with two more sixes in the next three balls. One of them, however, should have been taken but Suryakumar Yadav ran in too quickly and allowed the ball to burst through his hands. McClenaghan's luck ran out when he miscued Kuldeep Yadav to cover, but having made 20 off 8, he had already done his job.
Over to the pros now—Rohit and Jos Buttler. With 79 required off 48, the situation was tailor-made for the latter. Buttler had fallen for a duck on his IPL debut against Rising Pune Supergiants but wasn't going to miss out again, and killed the contest when he smashed Russell for two outrageous sixes over extra cover in an 18-run 17th over.
Russell had his revenge in his next over but the result was all but decided by then.
Earlier, Mumbai ended up conceding a massive total but the start was very different. Tim Southee and McClenaghan hit the perfect length and extracted good bounce, denying Gambhir and Robin Uthappa the opportunity to free their hands.
Uthappa perished to the pressure, miscuing a short ball that bounced chest-high from McClenaghan to cover. That would, however, be the only joy for Mumbai for a while to come.
The Power Play had yielded only 40 runs but Pandey's entry gave Kolkata much needed impetus. He slammed Hardik Pandya straight into the sightscreen in the seventh over for the first six of the match and followed it up with two more massive sixes against the spinners—Harbhajan Singh and J. Suchith.
At the other end Gambhir, who enjoyed some luck when Rohit dropped him off Suchith when on 30, went about his business as usual. The duo batted in contrasting styles but was equally effective and complemented each other; Pandey crossed his half-century off just 26 balls while Gambhir took 39 to become the batsman with the most half-centuries in IPL history (27).
The 100-run stand took just 58 balls before Harbhajan induced a return catch off Pandey in the 14th over. Gambhir too slowed down a touch after his half-century but there would be no respite for Mumbai as another massive hitter in the form of Russell walked in.
The West Indian swatted the third ball he faced, off Southee, for a flat six over deep mid-wicket to announce his arrival. Crouching low and appearing ready—and eager—to send every ball into the stands, Russell seemed in the mood. Sixes flew over long-on, edges flew past third-man, and Kolkata's score swelled rapidly even as Gambhir enjoyed more luck when Jasprit Bumrah dropped a high, albeit straightforward return catch.
McClenaghan got Russell to chop on to the stumps in the 18th over but by then, the batsman had done enough damage to take Kolkata past 180. Mumbai's batsmen, however, ensured it wouldn't be enough.

Senators' 2014 Campaigns Complicated by Immigration Issue
As President Barack Obama courts Hispanic support for rewriting U.S. immigration laws, the issue is complicating the political calculations for a group of senators whose votes he will need to win passage.
While leaders of both parties say addressing immigration is crucial to capturing the growing Hispanic vote, senators including Montana's Max Baucus, a Democrat, and South Carolina's Lindsey Graham, a Republican, will be running for re-election in 2014 in states where voters have been hostile to any plan that might be characterized as giving amnesty to those who entered the country illegally.
Six years ago, vocal public opposition to the idea of offering undocumented immigrants a path to citizenship was strong enough to scuttle a proposal backed by Republican President George W. Bush and a bipartisan group of senators. An attempt to revive the issue in 2010 also was derailed.
Incumbents facing a primary challenge or a close general election in next year's campaign season may have an incentive to oppose the plan's path to citizenship, said Jennifer Duffy, who tracks Senate races for the non-partisan Cook Political Report in Washington.
"The potential for it being the bright, shiny object of 2014 definitely exists," Duffy said in a telephone interview. "It's fair to say that you'll see it both in primaries and general elections."
Vote Counting
The 60-vote threshold for advancing major legislation in the Senate presents one of the biggest hurdles for a comprehensive immigration bill. Electoral pressures in the Senate -- where Democrats will defend 20 seats in 2014, compared with 13 for Republicans -- are among the dynamics that make counting votes complicated. Democrats control 55 votes in the 100-member chamber.
Senator Charles Schumer of New York, the chamber's third- ranking Democrat and an author of a bipartisan framework for revising immigration law unveiled earlier this week, predicted the "overwhelming majority of Democrats in the Senate" would back the overhaul.
"But we won't get all of them," Schumer said at a breakfast sponsored by Politico yesterday. "So we're going to need a good number of Republicans to vote for the bill to get 60."
Romney States
Like Baucus, five other Democrats -- Alaska's Mark Begich, North Carolina's Kay Hagan, South Dakota's Tim Johnson, Louisiana's Mary Landrieu and Mark Pryor of Arkansas -- are up for re-election in 2014 in states that Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney carried in November.
Graham, part of the group that released the bipartisan immigration blueprint on Jan. 28, is viewed as vulnerable to a primary challenge. Similar political threats could face Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, a Kentucky Republican, and Texas's John Cornyn, the chamber's second-ranking Republican.
Obama has sought to keep up pressure on lawmakers to avoid a repeat of 2007 when opposition drained all momentum for passing an immigration package. In a Jan. 29 speech in Las Vegas, he gave a cautious endorsement of the Senate plan and urged lawmakers to act quickly. Yesterday, he did the same in interviews with Spanish-language television stations Univision and Telemundo.
"This is something that we should be able to get done certainly this year, and I'd like to see if we can get it done sooner, in the first half of the year if possible," Obama said in the Telemundo interview.
Better Prospects
In his interview with Univision, Obama suggested changes to immigration law have better chance of passage than his push for new controls on gun purchases and ownership.
"My suspicion is we're seeing more bipartisan discussion on the immigration issue, than on the gun issue," he said.
He stressed the importance of an immigration package including the route to citizenship.
"What we don't want to do is to create some vague prospect in the future that somehow comprehensive immigration reform that includes a pathway to citizenship will happen, you know, mañana," he said in the Univision interview. "We want to make sure that we're very clear that this legislation provides a real pathway."
2007 Votes
Baucus, Landrieu and Pryor voted in 2007 not to advance the Bush-backed immigration overhaul. Baucus, Hagan and Pryor in 2010 opposed legislation known as the Dream Act that would have provided a path to legal status for younger undocumented immigrants.
The senators have remained noncommittal when asked about the latest immigration proposal.
"There is no legislative language; I'll have to see what it is," Baucus said.
Hagan, who said in 2010 she opposed the Dream Act because she preferred a comprehensive approach to revising immigration law, said in a statement she still wanted a broad overhaul and would "consider any proposals in that context."
She won her seat in 2008 when Obama became the first Democratic presidential candidate to carry North Carolina since Jimmy Carter in 1976. The president lost the state in his re- election campaign by two percentage points.
Landrieu also stopped short of embracing the bipartisan immigration framework, calling it a "good start."
"I look forward to the debate ahead to strengthen it," Landrieu said in a statement.
Details Key
Johnson told the Argus Leader newspaper in his home state that he too is waiting before passing judgment. "The devil is in the details and we're waiting for legislation to be drafted," he told the Sioux Falls-based newspaper.
Senator Richard Durbin of Illinois, the chamber's second- ranking Democrat and another leader of the immigration-overhaul push, told reporters today that at least one Democrat who has opposed a path to citizenship in the past had told him of a change of heart. Durbin declined to name the senator, while predicting that skeptics would be "pleasantly surprised" by the level of Democratic support.
The Senate group, which includes four Democrats and four Republicans, is calling for tougher border security and enforcement before providing a path to citizenship for the estimated 11 million undocumented immigrants in the U.S. These immigrants would face a prolonged process to remain in the country legally.
House Effort
A bipartisan group of House lawmakers that has been working together for more than three years will introduce its own immigration proposal as early as mid-February, according to a congressional aide who asked not to be named because the plan hasn't been finished. The House members' plan includes steps that could lead to citizenship, the aide said.
The immigration issue could especially play a role in 2014 races for open Senate seats in Georgia, Iowa and West Virginia, Duffy said.
The Senate proposal, which members of the group want to draft into legislation by March, would need the support of at least one more Republican senator to get the 60 votes to advance. The number of Republican backers needed would increase with every Democratic defection.
November Election
One factor working in proponents' favor is the Republican defeat in the 2012 presidential election, which has compelled the party to seek the support of more Latino voters. The rapidly growing voting group cast 71 percent of its votes for Obama in November.
Still, some Republicans are already under pressure from outside groups that oppose the Senate framework.
The Heritage Foundation, a Washington-based group that supports smaller government, said in a statement that the latest immigration effort is poised to repeat "the mistakes of the past." The group said that could "further polarize Americans, fail to solve the real policy problems and make matters worse."
Opposition from Heritage and other groups may make it harder for vulnerable Republicans to support the legislation, especially the path to citizenship.
Immigration legislation signed by President Ronald Reagan in 1986 made 3 million undocumented workers eligible for legal status and created a market for fraudulent documentation. Illegal immigration soared, casting a shadow on subsequent efforts to legalize immigrants.
"I think predicting how one is going to vote on this package before it gets out of committee is something I'm not prepared to do," McConnell told reporters this week.
'Earned' Process
Graham said he's reassuring conservatives he speaks to in South Carolina that the plan would include "an earned legalization process" that would make it possible to secure the border "and control who gets a job."
"I feel good that we're going to get more than our fair share of conservatives who understand now's the time," Graham said in an interview.
Another Republican seeking re-election next year, Senator Jeff Sessions of Alabama, pledged "to ask the tough questions" on the latest effort. In 2007, Sessions was one of the chamber's most vocal opponents of a path to citizenship.
"I remember, particularly 2007, I was intrigued by that legislation and thought it might be acceptable," he said. "But, as we reviewed it carefully, we realized it was not going to work when it got put into legislative language. So that's my concern this time."

On April 6, 2017, I have three tech sessions scheduled for the Spring Ohio Provider Resource Association conference in Columbus, Ohio.
I always like to experiment a bit with presentation tools, so here's what I'll try this time.
For "G Suite vs. Office 365: Which is better for you?" I put together sets of resources with a tool from each of the respective suites:
- a Microsoft Sway file for Office 365 resources: http://wolber.me/opra17microsoft, and
- a Google Site for G Suite resources: http://wolber.me/opra17google.
Sway delivers content both as a page, as well as in sequential slides, while the new Google Sites delivers an easy web-site building tool. Both serve content that works well in browsers on all screen sizes.
For "A Screenful of Apps", I created a few Google Slides with screenshots from Android and iOS devices. I added invisible boxes over each app image, so that when you view the slides, you can tap (or click) on an app to see the app in either the app's respective store (i.e., either Google Play or the App Store). Slides: http://wolber.me/opra17apps.
And, for a "Put the 'social' back in social media" session, I created a Twitter Moment of about 20 Tweets from all sorts of sources. Moments and Collections are part of my daily workflow. Moment: http://wolber.me/opra17social.

How To Make A Powerful All Natural Pest And Insect Spray
If you are anything like me then you try your best to eat non gmo and pesticide free food as possible. This applies to home grown veggies too. Last year was the worst year for pests I can remember, it almost made me buy pesticide so I at least has some food left over after the bugs had had their share.
I am so thankful I found the article I am sharing with you all today. I think it will help me out no end. I really don't want to use chemicals on my garden. I used diatomaceous earth but that costs a fortune and you have to reapply it after it rains. Check out a few recipes that only use natural ingredients, and those ingredients are food too.

Smith targets another run
Walsall boss Dean Smith said he was proud of his players after a 2-0 defeat at Colchester, who ended their nine-game losing run.
Last Updated: 26/01/13 8:05pm
Walsall boss Dean Smith said he was proud of his players after a 2-0 defeat at Colchester, who ended their nine-game losing run.
Late goals from debutant Jabo Ibehre and substitute Freddie Sears gave the U's their first win since November and helped them climb out of the relegation zone.
The Saddlers were bidding for a fifth straight win and had won six of their previous seven in League One.
Smith said: "I don't think (goalkeeper) Ian (McLoughlin) has made a save all game and a mistake leads to the first goal.
"It could have gone anywhere, but it falls to Jabo (Ibehre) and that opened the game up.
"We had to get something out of it, but they've ended up scoring a disputed second goal where we felt it was offside. All runs come to an end.
"We're really proud with the run we've been on and we've got to go again now.
"We had a reverse at Leyton Orient last month and we've got to bounce back now.
"We spoke about it at length before the game, about the first goal being important, but I can't really remember Ian making a save.
"I don't need to rant and rave because it was an even game. I don't think we deserved to win it and I don't think they deserved to either."

Last-minute negotiations on a new UN declaration on drugs, which is due to be agreed and signed this week in Vienna, were still in the balance last night with the deadline looming.
Deep divisions have opened up between countries that favour continuing the "war on drugs" strategy, led by the US and Russia, and those, including most EU and Latin American countries, that seek a recognition that "harm reduction" in the form of needle exchange programmes and drug treatments should be addressed.
"Negotiations are currently complex and we will discuss with our international partners later this week," the Home Office said. The UK position is that there is no reason that references to "harm reduction" should not be included in the declaration.
The UK government strategy was spelled out last month by Lord Brett in a debate in the House of Lords. "We want an outcome that will take us forward in the world efforts against illicit drugs and, as has been emphasised, the harm they cause," he said. "To secure that, we need to build on what has already been achieved. The government's view is that our not having made the progress that we wished does not mean that the 1998 declaration was a complete failure, or that we should tear down the existing system and set up a new one."
In 1998, the declaration of intent was "a drug-free world - we can do it", which critics claimed was unrealistic and did not address the complex nature of drug treatment.

Communicating is key.
I have been a life long communicator...that is if you count the fact that I've been babbling since before I could talk.
Never afraid to speak my mind, I strive for clear and honest communication in every form. Website design, publicity, social media, marketing, & advertising are no exception. Though my career goals are always in flux, one thing is clear: I never want to be bored. With this in mind, I'm making my way as a free-lance and contract communicator. This allows for travel and exploration, two things about which I am passionate.
[Food is definitely another passion.]
Like the desert.
These three words have been a motif in my life for as long as I can remember. When introducing myself, I started saying "...like the desert" after I say my name. As I've met more people in different parts of the world, they started to say that phrase to me upon hearing my name. Call it catchphrase or tagline, it's definitely my "name" brand!

For me, at least, it was false because it was fatalist; false because it was unhistoric; and false because it involved a particular falsity about the very spirit of the great culture which the critic criticised. It is the whole point of that culture that it has been continuous; it was the whole point of the critic that it have been discontinuous and disconnected. He was not content to say that civilisations revolve in separate cycles, in the sense in which we might be said to belong to a different civilisation from the Druids. He cut up ordinary European history into chunks, that were supposed to have no more to do with each other than Chinese history and Aztec history. He chopped ordinary Christian history in two in the middle, in order to deny that either part of it was Christian. So far as I remember, he attributed the first half of it to entirely to the Moslem Arabs, because they were not Christians; and the second half of it to people of the type of Faust, because they were rather fishy sort of Christians, and Germans as well. And he talked about these divisions as they were like the abysses that might separate a stratum full of primordial crystals from a stratum, aeons afterwards, containing the first fantastic traces of marsupial life.
Now, I am quite certain, as a matter of mere common sense, that the history of Christendom, or even the history of Europe, was never so fragmentary as that. We are much more connected with the ancient Greeks than the German writer would allow us to be with the later mediaevals, or even the earlier moderns. The sort of distinction he suggested only happens when a cycle of civilisation really dies, and then fossilises and remains as inscrutable as an ammonite. We have no idea what was the religion of the Cro-Magnons, though we infer from certain pictures of ritual dances (as well as from our own common sense) that they had one. We do not know the significance of the Cup and Ring Stones, though the fortunate and civilised of us still use rings, as in the case of wedding-rings, or cups even in the sense of wine-cups. We do not even know if we interpret the signs rightly, or whether they are signs at all. Now, the Greek gods have never died in that fashion; and the Roman Empire has never dies at all. Of the most modern industrial cities in England, many have in their very names the title of the Roman Camp; and wherever there stood the Roman Camp, there stood afterwards the Christian Cathedral. There was never one moment, in the long history from Herodotus to Herr Spengler, when all the men who counted in any age did not count The Fall of Troy; there was never a generation when young poets did not make that old tale a topic for new poems. I wonder whether a poem by Heredia about Antony, or a poem by Morris about Arthur, belongs to the dead Greek period or the dead Arabic period? There was never a generation of poets that did not invoke Virgil, if only to imitate him. There was never a generation in which philosophers did not refer to Aristotle, if only to contradict him. The thread of our cultural continuity has never been broken.
I think the fact worth recording at the moment for two reasons. The first is that the same energetic German author has just launched another book, of much less dignity and of much more dogmatism, reaffirming his theory, and especially the most gloomy and barbaric parts of it. The other is that there is a horrible possibility that what he says falsely about our past may be said truly about our future. I mean that, hitherto, the men of our ancient tradition have done everything except forget. Whatever might be fanatical or ill-balanced about their religions or their revolutions, they have each, in turn, taken particular care to remember the deeds of their fathers. Even when they poisoned the purer Paganism if Homer and Pindar, they did not destroy it; they left it standing for ever against them as a reproach. Even when they dethroned the Greek gods they did not dismiss them; in the first just fury they denounced them as devils, but in the long run they let them remain as elves. They let them remain as fanciful and fabulous figures, for literary metaphor or plastic decoration, so that Christendom has left the nymph in poetry or the cupid in sculpture. It is true that now, for the first time, the race that always remembered is invited on every side to forget.
Yes; it is true that to-day, for the first time, our newspapers and our new politicians have asked us to forget, not what happened a thousand years ago or a hundred years ago, but what happened twenty years ago. When it is a question of shifting a policy or rehabilitating a politician, they will ask us to forget what happened two years ago or two months ago. Here, indeed, we have the great Spengler System, of total separation of one historical episode from another. Here is the true trick of regarding ourselves as divided by aeons and abysses not only from our fathers, but from ourselves. Thus, by reading the daily paper every day, and forgetting everything that it said on the previous day, we can divide human history into self-contained cycles; each consisting, not of five hundred years, but of twenty-four hours. By this means we can consider the slogans and swaggering policies which we ourselves cheered only recently, as if they were hieroglyphics as unintelligible as the Cup and Ring of Stones. This new quality of forgetfulness, in our current culture, does give some justification to the pessimism of the German professor; and if we accept such oblivion, then doubtless our "cycle" will really curl up like a worm on the floor and lie still for ever.

Ok, so I'm selling off everything I own...cycling wise...to get myself a new bike!
I haven't owned a spanking brand new mountain bike in a few years...And recently stopped biking ! I think I need a good excuse to start pedaling again...And a new Ibis SL might be a good enough excuse!
I am a aggressive-ish trail rider, with all terrain abilities...meaning I can jump, drop, I downhill kinda fast and don't mind the ocasional uphill! I ride mostly dry conditions here in Baja...and mixed hardpack and loose over hard terrain. My favorite trail is Noble Canyon here in San Diego, Cali!
I used to ride a 2005 Iron Horse MKIII dw-link...with 5" rear travel and 6 @ the front.
The thing weighed 30lbs. and I looooved the feel of the suspension! It was suuch a great bike! Thats why I like the ibis...apart from the looks..To me the dw-link is super effective and functional.
I can get a very good deal on an ibis...whichever model. I am fond of the White colored ibis SL with the ano blue links....but also like the nude carbon.
What I wanna know is....
what model would be good for me considering my aggressiveness? Are they the same strenght-wise?
I can demo ride one if I want to....but what size would be nice for me? I'm about 5.65 feet tall...I also contemplating on using a 5" adjustable KS seatpost.
Thank you!!

Talk about a cheesy story.
July 30 is National Cheesecake Day. You might not care, except for this: To celebrate, Cheesecake Factory is selling slices of the rich, creamy dessert for only $1.50 a slice. That's less than a latte.
Apparently, lots of people dig it. "Cheesecake Factory" is currently the most searched-for term on Google.
For those unfamiliar with the restaurant chains prices, they usually go for about $6. So yes – it's a bargain. It's also what customers first paid per slice when the restaurant opened in 1978.
We've got Cheesecake Factories downtown, in Tukwila and in Bellevue.
DCist calls it the Coronarypocalypse. Don't forget to stop at the gym.

Author has written 6 stories for Fantasy, and Biography.
I am a mysterious person of many intrigues and talents, which range from drawing and sculpture, to fencing, writing, and lounging absentmindedly. Occasionally i run, very slowly, as i was one of those non-talented cross country athletes in high school, and since then, i have not run regularly. :/
I'm a Psychology Major (BA) and a English Major (Creative Writing Concentration). My intended career goal is to be a Freelance Novelist. I'm really not poetry-oriented in the slightest, although i'm passionate about fiction.
i'm busy in a nasty way which is vaguely comparable to a non-contagious disease, so there's a strong possibility that my activity here will be limited, though thanks to my dear friend TheWhimsicalBard, you'll see me every now and then with some prodding. :)

Scholar, International and Leadership Programs
The Office of Undergraduate Research maintains a Web site (www.ecu.edu/rgs/ur/) with links to research opportunities both on campus and off.
For further information about undergraduate research opportunities, you may contact the director at firstname.lastname@example.com or 252-328-9476. The Office of Undergraduate Research is located at 1512 Greenville Center.
Interested students may contact the College Foundation of North Carolina web site at http://www.cfnc.org, or contact the College of Nursing at 252-744-6477 or their high school guidance counselor. See College of Nursing Web site for application due dates.
The North Carolina Teaching Fellows Program, the most ambitious teacher recruitment program in the nation and one of the most prestigious scholarship awards in North Carolina, provides a $26,000 scholarship to 500 outstanding high school seniors interested in teaching. ECU accepts 45 teaching fellows in each class. Teaching fellows participate in academic seminars, leadership development opportunities, professional internships, and social and cultural experiences. Throughout the four years, ECU Teaching Fellows also work as tutors, travel, perform service work, plan recruitment initiatives, and serve on various committees.
Teaching Fellows are licensed in the following areas: birth-kindergarten, elementary education (K-6), middle grades education (6-9), secondary education (9-12), business and information technologies education and family and consumer sciences (7-12) and K-12 (art, dance, theatre, music, health, exercise and sport science, and special education). Following graduation from college, the student agrees to teach for four years in one of North Carolina's public schools, charter schools, or government schools.
High school students interested in becoming North Carolina Teaching Fellows should consult their high school guidance counselor. Applications are to be submitted in early fall of the senior year of high school. For further information on application deadlines, or more program information, access www.ecu.edu/cs-educ/teachfel/Index.cfm, or telephone the ECU Teaching Fellows Office at 252-328-4126.
Maynard Scholarship ProgramJames and Connie Maynard and the College of Education established the Maynard Scholarship at ECU on May 31, 2006. This four year $20,000 scholarship is awarded to outstanding high school seniors each year. The scholarship is modeled after the NC Teaching Fellows Scholarship and as such, recipients will be expected to teach in a public, charter or government school for four years in one of the stated counties following graduation. Individuals have up to seven years to complete this requirement. The Maynard Scholarship is administered from the ECU NC Teaching Fellows Office.
In the Integrated Bachelor's/Master's Program, qualified undergraduate students may apply for graduate admission and enroll in up to 15 hours of graduate credit to count toward completion of both the bachelor's degree and the master's degree. Students choosing this program complete their undergraduate degree in the three-year program or in the traditional four year program. For example, qualified students can integrate the bachelor's degree in exercise and sports science and the doctoral degree in physical therapy. Other combinations are available; students should discuss their goals with their advisors and the Graduate School. Students receive the undergraduate degree prior to or concurrent with completion of the master's degree.
In some structured integrated programs, students receive both degrees at the same time. Students designate the integrated degree upon admission and complete the combined bachelor's and master's program in five years, receiving both degrees upon graduation. Students in this program apply after 75 hours and must maintain the required GPA for continuation. After five years, students receive both degrees.
The Accelerated Master's Degree Program results in only one degree, the graduate degree. This program requires students to commit in the first semester of their freshmen year to the study of the combined degree program. With satisfactory progress, the students complete their foundations curriculum and program core requirements and then may apply directly to the master's program. The first such program at East Carolina University is one of the options for earning the master's degree in occupational therapy (MSOT). In this program, for example, students enter the university through the health service management curriculum and occupational therapy option. Students must maintain a minimum 3.2 GPA to be eligible to apply to continue their graduate program. Upon completion of this five-year program, they earn only one degree, the MSOT. This program option reduces the total number of hours in the students' program. In the OT example, the accelerated program option reduces the program from approximately 196 semester hours (undergraduate degree plus graduate degree) to 162 semester hours (combined degree). The College of Nursing offers an accelerated program for transferring students with the RN. The RN/MSN results in one ECU degree: master of science in nursing (MSN). (See www. nursing.ecu.edu.)
East Carolina University views the creation of international awareness as an essential component of today's university. It provides academic and co-curricular programming which allows students to gain the knowledge and skills to comprehend the world within a broad, flexible, and responsive framework that takes into account the reality of interdependence among countries and of international structures. The university aims to produce educated citizens of this and other countries capable of coping with the complexity and diversity of the world. The International House is located at 306 East 9th Street and may be contacted by calling 252-328-4829.
Students from countries other than the United States may apply to the chairperson of the Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures for a departmental certificate of American studies. (See Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures for requirements.)
ECULA classes will range from advanced beginner level to superior level and will meet five days per week, four hours per day. Topics will include: reading and vocabulary building; note-taking and study skills; oral communication skills; and writing for college.
For more information, please access the program Web site at http://www.ecu.edu/cs-acad/intlaffairs/ECULanguageAcademy.cfm.
Reciprocal tuition/fee exchanges make studying abroad quite affordable. Students studying on exchange through ECU, UNC-EP, or ISEP programs pay their usual tuition and fees to ECU and receive equivalent benefits at the host institution. Students may use their financial aid to pay for their exchange programs and are encouraged to apply for scholarships through the Rivers Endowment Fund, designed to support ECU students who wish to study abroad.
Studying abroad is available to students with strong foreign language skills, as well as students interested in sites where English is used as the primary language of instruction. Students are enrolled full-time at their host schools and are free to choose coursework that complements their program of study at ECU. With proper planning and close consultation with their academic advisors, students are able to take courses that count toward major/minor requirements or foundations curriculum. Study abroad participants earn credits toward their ECU degree program without losing time or delaying graduation.
Acquiring a global perspective through foreign study is an important component of your education. It is a strong addition to a resume, and a point of interest that sets students apart in job interviews or graduate/professional school applications. Ultimately, the value of studying abroad is measured through personal growth. Combined with opportunities for academic enrichment and professional development, studying abroad is an exciting, life changing and beneficial experience.
International Affairs coordinates the Thomas W. Rivers Distinguished Professorship in International Affairs (Rivers Chair). Each academic year, this program brings outstanding foreign scholars who live in residence. The Rivers Chair assists schools, departments and faculty in the internationalization process through teaching, research, and conferences.
The Center's mission is to serve as a catalyst for leadership development throughout the University. A major goal is to encourage and assist academic units and faculty to prepare students with leadership capacities to positively influence and impact their lives, their families, their communities and the larger society. That goal is pursued by providing opportunities for leadership-related projects, programs and initiatives through financial grants for leadership development agendas.
By encouraging and assisting units to embed leadership development components into courses and programs, the Center seeks to advance East Carolina University's extant service culture and its intention as a leadership development community.
Requests for further information should be addressed to the Director, BB&T Center for Leadership Development, 1100 Bate Building, East Carolina University, Greenville, NC 27858-4353; telephone 252-328-6190; firstname.lastname@example.com.
The CSLE operates under five core premises and a matrix of guiding principles which aligned with the university's strategic plan to "Distinguish itself by the ability to train and prepare leaders for our state and nation." The first and foundational premise is that leadership is a continual process of understanding who you are and using that knowledge to positively influence yourself, others, and society. Secondly the CLSE is driven by the premise that engagement is a powerful vehicle for developing students' leadership skills. The third operating premise is that leadership is a collaborative process, and the fourth states that leadership is value-based. The final premise around which the center functions is that all students (not just those in formal positions) have the ability to apply leadership practices to real life situations.
Programs and activities will be designed to encourage development in three learning stages; they will Discover, Design, and then Deliver. Within each stage, students will explore three phases of leadership – Self, Others, and Society.
In the Discover phase, students start by recognizing the self--who they are, what they want, what they value, how they operate as individuals and as members of groups, and how they can contribute to the betterment of society.
During the Design phase, students develop a personal strategic vision and develop strategies for motivation and self-discipline. Plans for promotion and collaboration with others are made. In this stage, students personally respond to societal challenges.
The Deliver phase is structured to be transformative. At this point in their development, students will have the opportunity to transform themselves and society by performing service to the public.
The CSLE offers students points of entry into leadership development activities throughout their collegiate career. The center serves as a clearinghouse for multiple programs and hosts the Elite Pirate, Leadership Challenge Institute, Emerging Leaders Program, Advanced Leaders Program, Leadership Reading Circles, L.E.A.P. workshops, iLEAD Student Leadership Conference, Leadership Extreme Trips, Pop into Leadership Movie Series, Character of Leadership, Leaving Your Legacy, Co-Curricular Student Profile, and the Walter & Marie Williams Leadership Award Program to name a few.
