Any positive experience with Tailor in BKK - getting married in January.
Hi All,
Been a long time since I used this forum.
So the good news - getting married in January at the family farm out Phichit way.
I will need to buy a Thai style wedding jacket.
I'm large in the shoulders and chest (and no longer flat in the belly.) and I rarely find (On previous tourist visits.) even xxl or xxx to be large enough.
Therefore I suspect I'll need a custom made jacket.
I can find a few tailors advertising in English online - I am asking here just in case anyone can give personal recommendation about tailors who have good experience with fallang sized bodies.
I'm arriving on December 14, to give me plenty of time to get around BKK getting documents sorted out pre-wedding.
Leaving for the family farm Dec 30. So I have just over two weeks to get a jacket custom made.
Thanks for any helpful input.
Mikel A.
Re: Any positive experience with Tailor in BKK - getting married in January.
First of all congratulations!
I would stay away from the places that advertise in in-flight magazines and also one that have people out the front trying to get people inside.
I have always just asked the concierge at the hotel I am staying at. Most 5 star places have a good recommendation of somewhere whose reputation they know about. You don't even need to be staying at the hotel, you can just ask the concierge.
I have always used CT Chinese Tailor at 404 Phaya Thai Rd, Wangmai,Pathumwan and was always happy with the service.
Having said that I haven't had anything made there in about 5 years so I cannot vouch for the current quality.Follow me on Twitter. I mostly tweet about hotels and resorts in Thailand. |

Examine the gallbladder and identify its body, fundus and neck. The fundus and neck of the gallbladder are completely covered by visceral peritoneum. The anterior surface of the body of the gallbladder is attached to the right sagittal fossa of the liver. The posterior surface of the gallbladder is covered by visceral peritoneum.
Make a longitudinal incision along the wall of the gallbladder and examine its interior surface. This surface is usually stained by the dark green bile. It is not uncommon to find small calcified stones in the lumen.Identify the cystic duct, which connects the gallbladder to the common bile duct. Observe the spiral mucosal folds, called the spiral valve, on its internal walls (Figure 38.6).

DWTS18 Watchout: Olympic Silver Medalist Noelle Pikus-Pace Would Like To Try Dancing With The Stars
The Examiner has posted a new interview with Olympic silver medalist Noelle Pikus-Pace. They ask her if she'd do Dancing With The Stars in part of the interview. Just in case she might get a "call", we thought we better mention this because you never know.
And because random questions are fun, might we ever see you on "Dancing with the Stars"?
Pikus-Pace: Hey, who knows? Give me a call. Let me try it out. [Laughs]
I'd rather producers pick an ice skater(s), but, she might be a cool get too. What do you think?

The Learning Groove necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 55 diseños de 13 diseñadores freelance.
The Learning Groove needs a logo! We create music and class curriculums for early education (ages 0-6). Our goal is to be hip for parents while still being fun & loving for kids. We like folk art and simplicity. Visit http://www.thelearninggroove.com to get a feel for our style.
The Learning Groove (TM)
Desired Style:
child-friendly, hip, cool, folksy
Accepted File Formats:
Standard Web Formats (.jpg, .gif or .png); Vector Formats (.eps, .pdf or .ai); Layered Formats (.psd or .tiff)
We have one idea in mind, though we are open and interested in other ideas. The idea we have now is basically having "The Learning" above a musical staff that has the word "Groove" on it -- the two letter o's in the word Groove could be whole notes on the staff (whole notes are elipses without a stem protruding from the ellipse).
Since we don't have the word "music" in our company name, we need the logo to make it clear we make children's music.
We lean towards folky colors as opposed to cliche overly bright rainbow colors for kids products. (Though we still want to be fun!) Best is to check out our site (under construction) to see the artwork we are currently using:
You can also check out http://ericlitwin.com/cd_store.htm to see past kid's CD covers we've produced.
Once again, our goal is to be hip & cool for parents while still being fun & loving for kids.
Thanks, and be well!

Dinner for Two: Greek Lamb Burger with Chunky Mint Tzatziki
Quick recipes for you and your dinner mate.
Get the Recipe
The best vacation Mr. English and I ever took was to the Greek islands. In terms of a culinary adventure, no other trip has ever matched it. The gigantes beans baked with tomatoes. Those deep-fried Greek salad fritters (that's my name for them). The olives. The baklava. The walnuts and yogurt. The sea bream, every night. The pomegranates. The octopus, and urchin, and ouzo. I was never not hungry on those islands. Because this column is about what Mr. English and I really eat in our little menage à deux, I take inspiration from what we really love and want. And that was a little reverie back to swimming in the clear Grecian waters.
Start with some ground lamb from the supermarket, and grate in a few cloves of garlic, and add some chopped fresh chives and oregano. Form the meat into two patties, drizzle with olive oil, and park on a hot grill or sauté pan for four to five minutes on each side.
Meanwhile, make the tzatziki. Tzatziki is a Greek dip usually made from yogurt, garlic, and grated cucumber. But maybe we can do better than that? Because the burgers are already so garlicky, I actually omit it here. Instead, chop cucumber into chunky half moons, add some more of the chives and oregano we used in the burgers, and finish it with whole mint leaves. Add a small container of Greek yogurt, and an optional squirt of lemon and you have the most refreshing condiment for your burger.
Finally, a tip for heating pita bread. Take some parchment paper and run it under the tap. Crumple it up, and wring it out. Seal the pita into the damp parchment as well as you can, and place in a hot over for five or six minutes. The steam from the parchment softens the bread while it warms, so you can easily stuff the pita with the hot, tender burgers, and the cool, fresh, crisp tzatziki.

What Is Elecampane Used for Today?
Safety Issues
The Latin name of elecampane comes from Helen of Troy, who was supposed to have carried elecampane with her while being abducted from Sparta. Revered by the ancient Greeks and Romans, this herb was recommended for treating such diverse problems as indigestion, melancholy, sciatica, bronchitis, and asthma.
What Is Elecampane Used for Today?
Some modern herbalists regard elecampane as a long-term treatment for respiratory diseases such as asthma and bronchitis, especially when excessive mucus is a notable feature. However, there is no real evidence that it is effective for this purpose.
Elecampane is also sometimes recommended as a daily supplement to improve general digestion.
One of elecampane's constituents, alantolactone, has been used in concentrated form as a treatment for intestinal parasites, 1 but it isn't clear whether the whole herb is particularly effective for this purpose.
A typical dosage of elecampane root is 1.5 to 4 g 3 times daily, either in capsule form or boiled in water as tea.
Safety Issues
The only reported adverse effects of elecampane are occasional allergic reactions. However, safety in young children, pregnant or nursing women, or those with severe liver or kidney disease has not been established.

Hi guys,
Searches for vicious anything turn up too many results so i figured I'd ask directly.
Is there an ironclad strategy any more for VGT? Call me simple but i can't seem to get past the first few floors.
Should I be stacking resists? Cydstepping? Scumming for poison and manaburn wards? Using an orc rogue? Elven wizard? Using the RBS?
What have people found the easiest so far?

Large, brown woodpecker with black barring on the back and black spots on the belly. Easily recognized in flight by its bright white rump. Also note large black crescent-shaped mark on breast. Underwings are yellow or red, depending on the subspecies. Generally "Yellow-shafted" is found in eastern and northern North America, and "Red-shafted" in the West south through Mexico. Often seen feeding on the ground in lawns, where they eat lots of ants and worms. Nests in cavities.

21 Inch Tall fully articulated Mr. Alexander Doll
Retail $749.95
Madame Alexander boldly goes where Mattel fears to tread. In this case it's not a male figure wearing a patterned sport jacket and pink shirt,
|Sugar's Daddy Ken Mattel Image
it's a dressed male figure who can be transformed into a woman:
|MA Promotional Photos
As for his second look, the one where he dresses like a woman... all the components for his transformation are contained in his black suitcase that has a pink handle and Some Like It Hot logo.
|MA Promotional Photo
Included are: a short sleeved, black georgette 'flapper' dress that's trimmed with black sequin insets, black fringe at the hips and hem and a beige net inset at the neck. Black stretch mesh, elbow length, fingerless mitts, black thigh-high stockings, an auburn bob wig that features bangs and fits over the pompadour and a black velveteen headband trimmed with silver beads and a rhinestone star applique. In addition, Joe comes with black rimmed glasses, silver and rhinestone earrings, a silver and rhinestone choker with front looped detailing and of course, a gold saxophone.
In the 1959 Oscar winning movie, Some Like It Hot, Tony Curtis plays Joe and Josephine. The movie's background information is very interesting and lends importance to the fact that the MA company is forward-thinking in producing this doll. Remember, they produce many dolls for young children.
It was released at the end of the repressive 1950s at a time when the studio system was weakening, the advent of television was threatening, and during a time of the declining influence of the Production Code and its censorship restrictions. Director-producer Wilder challenged the system with this gender-bending and risqué comedy, filled with sly and witty sexual innuendo (the "sweet" and "fuzzy end of the lollipop" represented oral sex), unembarrassed vulgarity, free love, spoofs of sexual stereotypes (bisexuality, transvestism, androgyny, homosexuality, transsexuality, lesbianism, and impotence), sexy costuming for the well-endowed, bosomy Marilyn Monroe, an outrageous and steamy seduction scene aboard a yacht, and a mix of serious themes including abuse, alcoholism, unemployment, and murder, among others.Marilyn Monroe As Sugar Kane Kowalczyk
21 Inch Tall Fully Articulated Cissy
Retail $499.95
|MA Promotional Photo
This is the character Monroe played in the same movie. What an outfit! If you have never seen MA Cissy outfits in person, you are missing a treat. Here is the description of this fashion:
She's wearing a smokin' hot 20's dress of off-white crinkle chiffon which dips to the waist in back. The nude mesh bodice of the sexy dress is enhanced with embroidered beads, sequins and metallic silver lace while the body of the dress is rich with metallic silver 'cracked ice' and silver bugle beads. A metallic silver applique on the left shoulder features strands of silver bugle beads that hang off the front and back of the shoulder. Off-white stretch lace panties, a luxurious, white 'fur' stole lined in white satin, a silver bracelet, silver and rhinestone earrings and, white satin pumps, with a silver metallic mesh overlay plus silver beads, completes the hot look for Sugar who comes with a ukulele.Lots of collectors that I know just can't get past the baby-faced Cissy look. I was one of those. But after a few years of looking at pictures, I relented and got my first. I have five Cissy dolls now. They can be very pricey and they take up lots of vertical space. If there is room in your collection for just one big doll, you might consider a Cissy.
As with many dolls, prices can vary wildly, even on new issues or pre-orders. Do your research and happy hunting.

Sidney Kimmel
In 2001, in the middle of December, 40,000 Philadelphians flocked to the Avenue of the Arts for the grand opening of the Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts. They wanted to see for themselves what many had criticized and mocked. What had Sidney Kimmel's $35 million created on this nondescript piece of real estate in the heart of Center City?
What Kimmel, 83, built has transformed Philadelphia's performing arts community. His pioneering vision was correct. Kimmel believed that if he built it, they would come. And they did.
The center is now the hub of Philadelphia's arts scene and home to the Philadelphia Orchestra, Peter Nero and the Philly Pops, The Chamber Orchestra of Philadelphia, Philadanco, the Philadelphia Chamber Music Society and American Theater Arts for Youth. Thousands of visiting musicians, dancers, actors and lecturers have appeared on the Kimmel Center's stages. Millions of patrons have sat in its seats — and in those elsewhere in the city that Kimmel has sponsored.
"Sidney Kimmel's investment in Philadelphia culture and history has been an economic engine for the region," says Meryl Levitz, president/ CEO of Greater Philadelphia Tourism Marketing Corp. "With a performing arts center and a reinvented Independence Mall, he has escorted Philadelphia into new territory as a modern, must-see destination. His generosity, combined with others in our community, has given Philadelphia three incredible new buildings — the Kimmel Center, the National Constitution Center and the National Museum of American Jewish History — filled with programs to inspire us and reasons to be proud. Now, Philadelphia is on the go-to list for the 37 million people who visit each year."

Modified Mustangs & FordsEvents
Show Of Shows
The ALL-FORD CARLISLE EVENT Is A Must Show To Attend
It's been a few years since I've had the good fortune of attending the Carlisle All-Ford Nationals, and I'm here to tell you it was another great year at the Carlisle fairgrounds. Sure, there was a bit of rain, but as usual it was far from a deterrent for the Ford faithful that attended.
Going to the same show year after year can sometimes get a little old, but when it comes to the All-Ford Carlisle show, it never does. Every year we've attended there's been something new to see or do. Whether it's the interesting and rare vehicles found in Building T, the special invitational guests, the hundreds upon hundreds of Fun Field participants, or the rows and rows of new and used parts deals, you'll always have a great time.
Some people think attending the Carlisle show is only for people that are looking for hard-to-find parts. While it's true there are interesting and rare parts to be found walking the rows of vendors, there's also so much more offered amongst the Carlisle fairgrounds and surrounding communities that you owe it to yourself to attend the Carlisle All-Ford show if you've never been. The Women's Oasis tent has bingo, wine tasting, massages, and manicures for the ladies (and it's air conditioned too!). There are also seminars, drag racing, a beauty contest, children's activities, and more on the fairgrounds. Did we mention there are a lot of display cars and parts to be seen too?
Take a long weekend and spend a few days sightseeing in the area. There's much to offer in the area, such as Gettysburg, which is rich in civil war history. In Gettysburg you can visit the Gettysburg National Military Park, see the sight of the Gettysburg Address, and even General Robert E. Lee's headquarters. There's also Hershey Park in neighboring Hershey, where you can ride roller coasters and tour the Hershey chocolate factory. Maybe you'd like to take a ride on a riverboat cruise down the historic Susquehanna River. There's also plenty of antique districts and outlet shopping. There's truly something for everyone in the family. Check out our photos for a recap of this year's All-Ford show.
Getting Boss'd Around
The Boss Car Nationals was held within the confines of the All-Ford show at Carlisle, and it was the most amazing display of cars I've seen in a long, long time. I'm partial to yellow '69 Boss 302s (I can get picky about year and color since I know I'll never own one), but no matter the year or color, there was an example on the grounds for you to drool over. From ultra-low-mileage concours examples to built-to-the-hilt Restomods, you could have seen it all. Activities included the aforementioned barbeque dinner along with a cruise to the local Hooters, raffle prizes, photography, plaques, racing displays, racing footage, and more. One of the highlights for many was the ability to speak with and get autographs from Bud Moore (of Trans-Am racing fame) and our very own Donald Farr, author of Mustang Boss 302, Ford's Trans-Am Pony Car. Here's a few snapshots of the happenings within the Boss Car Nationals itself.

Ramirez was drilled in the helmet from a pitch from reliever Chris Perez in the top of the ninth inning. Ramirez was on the ground for several moments before leaving the game under his own power.
Ramirez said after the game that he was fine and expects to play Tuesday night.
BTW, Dye was grazed in the head, right after Alexei, but didn't require treatment.

He's still energetic, positive, and passionate. He's still selling exotic sports cars to enthusiasts all over the country. He now has a baby on the way, due in September. He is very much not incarcerated. And he has no regrets about the two days last year he spent breaking thousands of laws in more than a dozen states across the country.
Six months have passed since Ed Bolian and co-conspirators Dave Black and Dan Huang completed their record-setting transcontinental journey, travelling from New York to Redondo Beach, California, in 28 hours and 50 minutes – at an average speed of 98 miles per hour. Almost immediately after my original article on the run went live, I started to get dozens of questions from readers: Were they arrested? Were they ticketed? Will the record ever be broken? What's the best car for the job? I recently sat down with Ed to get some answers.
Let's start with the question I get most often: no, they weren't arrested. In fact, they weren't ticketed, their GPS data wasn't subpoenaed, and they didn't even hear from any tough-talking law enforcement agencies who threatened Ed and co-driver Dave with arrest should the pair ever return to their jurisdictions. In fact, Ed's closest brush with the law came weeks after the fact, when he was driving the 2004 Mercedes CL55 AMG that had been used to set the record.
"A local police officer pulled me over," Ed said. "When he came up to my window, he said, 'Ed, is that you?' It turns out that he just wanted to check out the car."
If you ask Ed, he'll tell you that the main reason he thinks he and Dave weren't subject to any legal scrutiny is that it would just be too hard to figure out who was driving. Sure, you could get the GPS data to prove that the car was moving at a certain speed in a certain place. But then you'd have to prove which driver was behind the wheel – a tough task, given that you'd have no eyewitnesses and two men who could hardly remember when they did their stints in the driver's seat.
But while there may not yet have been any legal consequences for his lawbreaking, many people were very upset with the whole idea of a cross-country speed record. ("Mostly tree huggers," Ed says with a chuckle.) Some called the Lamborghini dealer where Ed worked, angry that they would employ such a reckless lawbreaker – even though their business depends on selling sports cars designed to exceed the legal speed limit in a matter of seconds. Others made it more personal: they called his cell phone. Ed tells me he still isn't sure how they got his number.
"One guy called me," Ed recalled. "He said, 'Is this Ed Bolian, the guy who set the cross-country record?' I said 'Yeah.' He said, 'Well, I don't believe assholes like you should be allowed to breed.' I had a lot of fun with guys like that. I tried to keep them on the line as long as possible."
Of course, it wasn't all angry calls. Ed also got e-mails, letters, and phone calls from people all over the world congratulating him on his achievement. Many wanted to hear more details about the record-setting run. Some wanted an interview.
"The day the article went up, we couldn't do business," Ed told me, referring to the never-ending stream of calls the dealership received from all sorts of interested people, ranging from supportive fans and concerned citizens to acquaintances he hadn't heard from in years. And, of course, from reporters.
One by one, Ed agreed to the interviews. The story was featured prominently on CNN, and included on Inside Edition. He flew to New York for the Today Show, where he met fellow Lamborghini aficionado Jason Statham. He did more than a hundred radio interviews. To this day, Ed says, the dealership still fields four or five calls a week from people who want to talk to "the guy who set the record."
"One kid came in when I was at lunch," Ed told me. "He sat at my desk for an hour until I came back, just so he could meet the guy who broke the cross-country driving record."
Interestingly, all the publicity had another effect: it boosted business. While Ed's bosses were initially perturbed by the overwhelming attention, they changed their attitude once they realized that the month following the record-setting run entered the books as the dealership's best ever. Ed personally sold nearly 20 cars that month. He also told me that, since the article went live, a handful of people have visited the dealership solely to buy a car from "the guy who broke the record."
Speaking of fast cars, it's hard to deny that "What car would you use to set the record?" is one of the most often-discussed topics among any group of car enthusiasts. In the comments section of the original article, there were hundreds of suggestions, ranging from a Cadillac CTS-V Wagon to a Ferrari; from a Tesla to an Audi A8 TDI. I asked Ed to weigh in on the issue after six months of perspective.
"Diesel won't work," are the first words out of his mouth, owing to the dozens of people who told him he should've used a diesel-powered car. "It's not enough power."
According to Ed, the issue is this: thanks to the aftermarket fuel tanks he installed in the CL55's trunk, fuel range wasn't a problem. Even if a diesel car could shave off an entire fuel stop, he says, it would only save a few minutes. Instead, Ed says that the real key is quick acceleration from 60 to 130 miles per hour – after passing a slower vehicle, for instance. And that's why gas mileage is less important than a high-powered engine like the one in his CL55.
"And brakes," he says. "Carbon ceramic brakes would be very useful."
Ed also notes that air suspension is absolutely essential, largely due to the huge fuel tanks mounted in the trunk. I didn't realize it initially, but he's absolutely right: gas weighs around six pounds per gallon, and Ed's tanks allow for a 67-gallon capacity. The result is 400 pounds of fuel sloshing around behind the cabin. Ed likens it to two adult men standing in the trunk for the duration of the journey.
Another issue is the physical toll this trip takes on a car. Ed says his CL55 is in "bad shape," noting that the Active Body Control pump is internally disintegrating, the car needs brakes and tires, and there are dozens of rattles that weren't there before he left the Red Ball Garage in Manhattan. Interestingly, he says he's heard from Mercedes-Benz USA, and they love the fact that he used one of their cars – though they could never officially condone such a public act of lawlessness. After lunch, we head outside to check the engine: the plaque says it was hand built by Marco Weissgerber, who has certainly made Affalterbach proud.
So what car would Ed do it in, if he were given an unlimited budget?
Initially, he suggests a Porsche Panamera Turbo with ceramic brakes, though he notes that would mean building a partition in back to keep gasoline fumes out of the cabin. He also tosses around the idea of a Bentley Super Sports, though he says the car's high profile would mean too many other drivers would be tempted to call the police. In the end, he's surprisingly noncommittal on this question – and I get the feeling he wouldn't want to do the trip in any car besides his CL55.
Not that it matters, Ed tells me – because he doesn't think the record can ever be broken.
I get the sense that this thought doesn't come from a position of arrogance. Instead, it comes from Ed's belief that he got lucky – really lucky – with what he calls "slot machine variables" that may never again repeat themselves.
One of the most important variables was Ed's co-driver, Dave Black. Though Dave had some high-speed driving experience before he embarked on the record-setting cross-country trip (he's one of Ed's customers at the Lamborghini dealership), he wasn't aware of the storied history behind the all-out run. He didn't know about previous races like the Cannonball Run or the US Express, and he barely knew of Alex Roy – factors that Ed thinks helped Dave to focus on overall speed, rather than setting a record.
"He didn't know how difficult it would be," Ed tells me, "so he didn't know not to do it. He just showed up and drove fast."
But Dave's driving wasn't the only thing that went right for the group. They also encountered no traffic and no construction. They didn't get pulled over. They had no car trouble. There was no bad weather. Slot machine variables, indeed.
"You could give me ten tries, and I don't think I'd be able to do it that fast again," says Ed.
So what's next for Ed? The previous recordholder, Alex Roy, wrote an excellent book on his own cross-country run entitled The Driver: My Dangerous Pursuit of Speed and Truth in the Outlaw Racing World. Ed says he's kicked around the idea for a book, and he tells me that he's in talks for a movie – an exciting proposition to bring the story to a wider audience. Still, I get the feeling that even if nothing else happens, Ed will be content with simply having achieved his cross-country dream.
"I didn't do it to get famous," Ed says, noting that he's only well-known among a really small, dedicated group of car enthusiasts who care about this sort of thing. "I did it because it was fun. It was cool. I wanted to break the record."
@DougDeMuro is the author of Plays With Cars. He owned an E63 AMG wagon and once tried to evade police at the Tail of the Dragon using a pontoon boat. (It didn't work.) He worked as a manager for Porsche Cars North America before quitting to become a writer, largely because it meant he no longer had to wear pants. Also, he wrote this entire bio himself in the third person.

Evan Ebel, the man suspected of killing the head of the Colorado prison system, threatened to kill a prison guard in September 2005 while he was incarcerated, according to records released Thursday by the Colorado Department of Corrections.
Ebel said he would make the guard "beg for her life" if he ever saw her on the streets, records indicate. He also was involved in two fights and three cases of assault and was written up for 28 violations during his imprisonment, the reports said.
The 28-year-old was on parole when he was mortally wounded in Texas on March 21 in a gunbattle with authorities that left a sheriff's deputy wounded.
Prison system chief Tom Clements was shot to death at his home outside Colorado Springs on March 19 and authorities have said the bullets that killed Clements came from a gun that was found with Ebel.

I get so frustrated when I am working with suggested edits and I pour a lot of time into an edit only to have the "more substantive edit" thing popup when I try to submit. Ok, so I will naively accept that the system's algorithm is perfect in determining which edit is better, but there are times when I put in the few minutes to read the entire post and correct entire post only to have the effort wasted.
Is it possible to have like a 5 minute window or something that when I start editing the post no one else can edit it? If I take more than 5 minutes, then I timeout and the rest of the SO community can then have at the post.
The other alternative of course is to automagically blend multiple edits into a single edit, but that seems like the harder solution and prone to errors.

In September 2004, the college adopted a new seven year Master Plan. The summary document was entitled, "Pathways…our Guide for College Planning." We are now at the halfway point and in the process of completing our third cycle of program review using this Plan. The Plan provided a framework for our successful re-accreditation and planning for our Measure C Projects, which are nearing the 65% mark of completion, with the final three story building (Learning Resources Center) under construction now.
Let's check off what we have accomplished. It will make you proud.
Goal # 1 – College Planning
- Completed Three Planning Documents – Master Plan, Facilities, Technology
- Successfully linked Program Review process with Planning and Budget process
Goal # 2 – Enrollment Management
- Updated college marketing to modernize the image, logo, and educational identity
- Increased support for Outreach, Recruitment, and Community Services
- Increase enrollment and success indicators by 1% per year
Goal # 3 – Student Achievement
- Faculty identified Student Learning Outcomes for most courses and the Associate in Arts Degree. Now they are working on measuring methodologies
- Student Services developed similar measures and completed one year of assessments
Goal # 4 – Student Support
- Promoted and supported student participation and student government
- Created Learning Communities – Honors, Puente, and Peace Studies
- Increased Student Tutoring including Community Tutoring activities
Goal # 5 – Facilities – thanks to Measure C
- Completed new Health Professions Building
- Major renovation of Physical Education and Athletics – Aquatics Center, Locker, & Gym
- Groundbreaking for new Learning Resources Building
- Smart Classrooms – computer & projection system in every classroom
Goal # 6 – Campus Diversity
- Increased the diversity of our workforce to respond to changing student demographics
- Trained staff on new teaching strategies and modalities for new student learners
- Completed annual assessments for disproportionate impact in enrollment patterns
Goal # 7 – Institutional Advancement
- Celebrated college's 40th Anniversary with community events
- Increased scholarships and awards donated to GWC students
There is much on this list to celebrate; however, we know the task of continuous improvement is never ending. We endeavor to challenge both our students and ourselves to better our lives by improving our skills, engaging our minds in the pursuit of knowledge, and the enjoyment of the arts, while involving ourselves in service to others. Together –faculty, staff, students, and community members–must recommit annually to the improvement of our college.
Now we are initiating the revision of several college plans, because check boxes don't mean we are finished. They simply mean we are able to choose our next important task. Our college motto says it all: Oceans of Opportunity. It helps to remind us that the future is full of possibilities, and effective planning positions us to take advantage of that next opportunity.

"It is no longer that consumers are borrowing to buy a new car, but to get food on the table. That is why there is an increase in unsecured lending, because it is used for consumption to survive," said University of South Africa (Unisa) personal finance research unit head, Bernadene de Clercq.
"We've got increases in the petrol price, electricity prices. Now that their expenditure commitments are too high, they don't have the income to support that growth," she said.
De Clercq told the summit in Midrand that most South African consumers borrowed from credit providers just for consumption purposes and "to keep up with the Joneses".
She said that when consumers acquired debt in the past two years, they had not thought that electricity prices and fuel prices would increase, hence they were now unable to pay their debt.
A FinScope Consumer Survey conducted by FinMark Trust last year showed that 26% of consumers borrowed from credit providers to buy food.
Sixteen percent borrowed to pay for transport, 7% acquired credit to pay school fees, and 5% to pay electricity bills.
Only 4% of consumers borrowed to renovate their houses.
Consumers were also struggling to pay school fees, medical expenses and municipal services, De Clercq said.
She said over-indebtedness did not apply to the entire population, but mostly low and middle-income groups who had too many accounts with a variety of credit providers.
Recent figures released by the National Credit Regulator showed that there were 60-million accounts belonging to only 19-million consumers in the country.
She said consumers put saving at the bottom of their priorities when they received their incomes. This led to over-indebtedness and consumers could not enjoy the current low interest rates environment.
"We need to teach people to manage their finances," De Clercq said. – Sapa

The Bookshelf Project #13
Her bookshelves look very homey, don't you think? The topmost photo shows her collection of YA books, and her collection's quite extensive!
Those artistic pieces found near the books (bottom photo) are just so wonderful. They add a personal touch to the bookshelves.
What do you think of Kaye's bookshelves and book collection, dear reader?

Those are great! I always want to see personal items interspersed with books. To me, they belong together. Books are friends, and having other knick-knacks and pictures makes them even more personal.
Nothing more boring than sterile bookshelves stuffed with books that look like nobody ever touches them--these show lots of love!

All kinds of glee around college basketball this morning, because ding dong, Duke has lost. We always notice a bit of a buzz around this here Web world the morning after a Duke loss; the sun's a little brighter, the grass is a little greener, so on.
The big story from last night's loss to Florida State was the early bum rush of the court by Seminoles fans. There's been a lot of talk lately about the appropriateness of fans running on the court after wins, and we'll say that not only have we never had a problem with it, we find it sad that's it's not as prevalent as it used to be. When the Milwaukee Brewers beat the St. Louis Cardinals in Game 5 of the 1982 World Series, fans had a big party on the field afterwards even though the Brewers only had a 3-2 lead in the series. These days? Go ahead and try to run on the field after the Yankees clinch something; we give you five seconds until the snipers on the roof take you out.
Still: Probably good to wait until the game is over to run on the court. Not doing so gives Mike Krzyzewski opportunity to act all indignant afterwards, and nobody wants that.

"I am really pleased with the quality of the materials supplied. The metal was heavy gauge, the windows and doors were of highest quality, and I had to buy no materials other than that supplied. I would not hesitate to recommend an AmeriBuilt building to anyone."
Al Kimball - Mt. Dora, Florida
"We had an excellent experience dealing with Mr. Horgan and AmeriBuilt. Jim takes his services to a personal level and he processed our building with the utmost in integrity, competitiveness and equitability. They follow thru with status of the building order, production and delivery process all the way to anticipating any logistical surprises."
Carlos Castillejo - Purchasing Manager, J&P Construction - Santa Maria, California
"I couldn't be happier with the building. There is no wasted space. The inside of the building is as clean a look as I have ever seen in a metal building. When I need another building it will be AmeriBuilt."
Steve Bisbee - Payette, Idaho
"I was very pleased that the engineering drawings from AmeriBuilt were accepted by our county building department without any problems, they were signed and sealed with the correct Florida codes. I elected to put the building up myself (and act as the general contractor). The plans were straight forward, but when I did have some questions, Jim was able to answer them. I later ran out of time to complete the building, but Jim helped me find a local contractor that was experienced with metal buildings. In the end I did about half the work and the contractor did the rest. I still saved money doing it that way. The quality of the building supplies is good, it was all packaged correctly and delivered on time. I would not hesitate to do business with Jim in the future, he is honest and wants the customer to be happy with the end result."

Avian influenza
Avian influenza ("bird flu") is an infectious disease of birds caused by type A strains of the influenza virus. The infection can cause a wide spectrum of symptoms in birds, ranging from mild illness, which may pass unnoticed, to a rapidly fatal disease that can cause severe epidemics.
Avian influenza viruses do not normally infect humans. However, there have been instances of certain highly pathogenic strains causing severe respiratory disease in humans. In most cases, the people infected had been in close contact with infected poultry or with objects contaminated by their faeces. Nevertheless, there is concern that the virus could mutate to become more easily transmissible between humans, raising the possibility of an influenza pandemic.

Wetterhorn Peak (Colorado) Climber's Log
Tim Jones - Sep 20, 2005 8:02 amRoute Climbed: Standard Route Date Climbed: September 12 2005
With Jim Randa (from Boulder). Somewhat windy but
otherwise a beautiful day. The summit pitch was much
easier than I expected. By far the most interesting 14er I've done.
Michael Crofford - Sep 13, 2005 12:48 pmRoute Climbed: Matterhorn Creek Date Climbed: September 8, 2005
7th 14er. As everyone else says stay as close to the ridgeline as possible. The scattered rock cairns were not much help.

Wow! One of the coolest mountains I have been on. Great weather allowed us to head over and touch the top of Matterhorn Peak while in the area.
mntnplay - Aug 29, 2005 2:00 amRoute Climbed: matterhorn Creek Standard Date Climbed: 27 August 2005
3:00 up. We wandered onto the east side of the ridge on the ascent which added a little extra spice to the climb as we found the east side to be much looser than the top of the ridge. My two cents of advice: once you ascend to the ridge, stay close to the ridge on the west side. The initial view of peeking through the keyhole gave me a little pause; all I could see was the ramp and distant green fields. We'd gotten almost a quarter inch of snow at the trailhead during the night, so we carried our axes. Oddly enough, there was no evidence any new snow on the peak.
Gareth - Aug 9, 2005 11:03 pmRoute Climbed: Southeast Ridge Date Climbed: August 1, 2005
My second time on Wetterhorn. Followed the new CFI approach trail and was disappointed to find that it isn't nearly as direct as the old one.
shanahan96 - Aug 4, 2005 5:56 pmRoute Climbed: Southeast Ridge Date Climbed: July 8, 2005
7/8/05- nice valley hike led us to the ridge. route finding up to the summit block was fun; i kept showing my partners the correct route then went searching for some challenging ways to climb up. summit block was solid and easy. nice views up top. climb this mountain!
6/3/07- climbed the east face w/nellis while jen and scott climbed the snow covered southeast ridge. got a great glissade off the lower ridge on the descent!
5/15/10- returned to the climb the east face w/steve. snow quality was much better this time around. our beautiful, bluebird day disappeared right below the summit block leaving us in a whiteout to finish things off. always a great adventure!

Wetterhorn is a special peak indeed. I did it after Uncompahgre as the weather held long enough to be on top at 1pm. Started at 11K below Nellie Creek 4wd trailhead and had my friend Pat pick me up below the Matterhorn 2wd trailhead. Incredible loop hike as long as the weather holds. Fun scrambling on the top and the exposure is well protected with solid holds.

FUN! This mountain is great, seemed like I made it to the top in no time at all from the matterhorn TH. No problems at all, didn't even see anyone till we were coming down and heading over to uncompahgre. Beautiful weather and beautiful views. I think I would like to do wetterhorn, matterhorn and uncompahgre all in one day sometime soon!
Old Ickabod - Mar 28, 2005 9:11 pmRoute Climbed: Matterhorn Creek Trail - Southeast Ridge Date Climbed: August 2004
This has been my favorite 14er yet! I left the trailhead at 4am and my headlamp spied the eyes of several animals off the trail. Freaky, but they kept my pace brisk. The hike was an awesome mix of trail, boulderhopping, ridge scrambling, and an easy climb to the summit. I enjoyed sunrise all by myself on the summit at 7:30am. After leaving the summit, I continued on and summited Uncompahgre later that day. I was spent, but the 17.5 miles in one day was well worth it.
ColoradoScott - Feb 7, 2005 12:49 pmRoute Climbed: Southeast Ridge Date Climbed: August 23, 2003
After setting up camp about a mile west of the Matterhorn Creek Road and TH on Aug. 21st, I had hoped to climb this the on the 22nd. When I woke at 6:00 a.m. the monsoon clouds had me roll over in my sleeping bag and I decided to take it easy and drive over Engineer Pass into Ouray for lunch instead. I returned over Cinnamon Pass and back through Lake City during the storm. The rain and lightning finally ended and broke up before sundown.
The next morning, I woke and hit the trailhead by 7:00 a.m. and quickly proceeded up the trail. Being a Saturday, I expected more climbers, but only saw five others on Wetterhorn that day. The climber's trail that crosses the creek above timberline and heads west along the left side of the basin was marked with a cairn and the junction seemed logical to me, although I think many people stay on the main trail much higher before turning toward Wetterhorn. Although this trail does fade into a number of scree slopes and gullies below the SE ridge, it is helpful to climb on it if you can locate it.
It grew chilly on the ridge, so I added a layer on top, but was still in shorts on the legs. The route climbs up a semi-loose slope of brightly colored rock and the gets into the better defined ridge above. The route was more apparent than I thought it would be and finding the small keyhole above the Shark's Fin was marked with a cairn. The steep scramble on solid ledges above to the summit is a spectacular finish on a great mountain. Just be careful of sending rock missles onto anyone below. I topped out at 10:30 and fortunately had the summit to myself for twenty minutes when another climber, from Boulder, arrived. I spent 45 minutes on top and the two of us descended together, making excellent time and back to the TH by 1:15 p.m. The storm clouds let loose a half hour later. The cold beer in the cooler was a nice finish.

Double bagging of Wetterhorn and Uncompahgre. #24 and #25. Gorgeous day, no problems with the climb except there was no one else on top to take a picture of me.
Larry V - Jan 13, 2005 11:33 pmRoute Climbed: southeast ridge, Matterhorn Creak Trailhead Date Climbed: July 1996
Climbed late in day after conquering Uncompahgre in the morning. A beautiful mountain, and challenging climb.
climber46 - Sep 21, 2004 12:53 pmRoute Climbed: SE Ridge(standard route) Date Climbed: Sept 18, 2004
Despite marginal weather, I made the summit with a friend from Boulder, CO. I did not think this mountain was as hard as it is built up to be. Yes, you want to avoid falling, but there are so many steps and handholds that make it easy. Also, thanks to work by the Colorado Fourteeners Initiative in 2004, the Trail to Wetterhorn Peak is now clearly marked and easy to follow. There are even signs marking where the Wetterhorn trail junctions away from the main trail. Other former climber paths have been marked "Closed for Revegetation". Having one clearly marked trail will help preserve the tundra environment and also make it quicker and easier to gain the SE ridge of Wetterhorn.
All in all, a very nice hike!
sbkelley - Sep 9, 2004 12:55 amRoute Climbed: Southeast Ridge Date Climbed: July 2004
One of the most beautiful Fourteeners out there. Tanya and I especially liked the last summit pitch - pure fun! We also came across a guy smoking pot on the summit...I was wondering why he was talking to the marmot up there and once I smelled the smoke, it all made sense...I guess he made it down okay, though.
Saintgrizzly - Aug 10, 2004 9:30 pmRoute Climbed: Good question... Date Climbed: Late '70's (Whew!!)
High on the list of most people's favorite Colorado mountains, including me. I've only done the peak once, in the late '70's, and it may have been my first San Juan 14-er. Did the mountain with Aaron, and the unusual thing about this trip came about because at that time some access roads were still open that are now gone. We'd just purchased CJ's, and were big on trying out new roads--well, we took a winding back ridge road, eventually bringing us out on to a ridge overlooking the Wetterhorn south/southeast basin. (And what a stupendous view that particular perspective is!) From there we did the mountain, which was considerably shorter than the standard routes of today. The thing of interest, and we didn't realize this until some time later, is that the area had just been declared a wilderness area, we had taken a wrong turn onto an access road in such a manner so as to miss a closed gate (the "normal" entry point) maybe a hundred yards further on--in other words, we may actually have been driving in the wilderness, and were probably the last ones ever to use that particular road. We'd never have done such a thing knowingly, and even back then the fine would have been substantial--ignorance is bliss, and we lucked out. And the mountain was terrific!
Did Matterhorn two years ago (2002) with Aaron and Ellen. Nice views of Wetterhorn and Uncompahgre.

A beautiful climb. Rope was nice for the final pitch. Not highly technical at all, but a fall would be serious.
Gareth - Jul 24, 2004 11:18 pmRoute Climbed: Southeast Ridge Date Climbed: July 24, 2004
This one wound up being a battle for me! I made it to the top after climbing up the frost covered crux. Exciting climb, all by myself--had the whole upper mountain to myself.
I am signing this summit log in a internet cafe in Ouray :)
jrf - Jul 15, 2004 10:28 amRoute Climbed: South Ridge (sort of) Date Climbed: July 3, 2004
Amazing climb. We actually went pretty far over towards Matterhorn Peak and then headed up grassy slopes and snow back over to the south ridge. This route is sort of in the Roach book but I think we went farther east than he suggests. There is a trail in between the two creeks that I think we were meant to find instead.
Last section got my attention but not nearly as bad as I expected. The ledges were very solid.


text: Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation Oklahoma 2013-14 Deer Harvest Report Shows Decline Tyler Gottula, of Oklahoma Hunt Club and Wings In Flight Outdoors, arrowed this Sooner state bruiser (154 0/8) during the 2013 season. (Tyler Gottula photo) Many factors combined during the 2013-14 deer hunting seasons to produce a total harvest decline of 18.4 percent from the 2012-13 seasons.Erik Bartholomew, big game biologist for the Wildlife Department, said the total deer harvest was 88,009. This compares to the 107,848 deer that were taken by hunters in 2012-13.The deer harvest numbers from 2013-14 will be included in this year's Big Game Report, which will appear in the September/October issue of "Outdoor Oklahoma" magazine, published by the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation."It was a compounding of factors that contributed to an overall lower harvest," Bartholomew said. Oklahoma offers three major types of deer hunting seasons: archery, muzzleloader and gun. Harvest numbers for each of those seasons declined from the previous year, based on data gathered from reports to Oklahoma's online E-Check system. A total of 52,197 bucks (59.3 percent) and 35,812 (40.7 percent) does were harvested in 2013-14.The largest decline was seen for the muzzleloader season. This year, muzzleloader hunters took 14,981 deer, which is down 6,624 animals (30.7 percent) from the muzzleloader harvest of 2012-13. The gun season harvest was 51,588, down 11,447 animals (18.2 percent), while archery hunters took 21,440 deer, down 1,768 deer (7.6 percent) this year from the previous year."We know that 2011 and 2012 were particularly bad recruitment years for reproduction due to widespread drought across the state," Bartholomew said. So, the deer population was likely lower overall ahead of the 2013-14 deer seasons. A comparatively mild and wet summer in 2013 produced more food and cover options heading into fall, which effectively distributed the deer population more throughout the landscape."The deer were less concentrated because food and water was more widely available as compared to previous years. In many parts of the state, there was a bumper acorn crop. So, it's no wonder that deer weren't visiting corn feeders or food plots," he said.In most of the state, much denser foliage and taller grass growth brought on by milder and wetter conditions also hindered hunters' ability to sight deer in the field.Bartholomew said the weather also played a part in reducing the deer harvest. The gun season was affected by two major winter storm events over its 16-day run, along with several days of heavy fog in many areas of the state. Significant winter weather also affected the opening few days of the holiday antlerless season.For a comprehensive look at the 2013-14 big game hunting seasons, including tables showing deer harvest numbers broken down by specific county and wildlife management area, be sure to read the annual Big Game Report in "Outdoor Oklahoma." This full-color, award-winning magazine brings readers the latest news on wildlife, the outdoors and conservation throughout the state. At only $25 for three full years, "Outdoor Oklahoma" is also among the best magazine values around. To subscribe, call (800) 777-0019 or go to tinyurl.com/OutdoorOklahoma.The 2013-14 season was the first that required all deer hunters to report their harvests online using the Wildlife Department's E-Check system at wildlifedepartment.com.The online E-Check system offers hunters a more convenient way to report their harvests of deer, elk and turkey. No longer are hunters required to travel to a physical check station during business hours to report their harvests.E-Check aids biologists and game wardens, who can access current harvest information to help them better manage wildlife.The 2013-14 deer seasons were the first seasons held after the Wildlife Department rolled out a new deer hunter education initiative, "Hunters in the Know ... Let Young Bucks Grow!" The focus of the campaign is to encourage hunters to consider harvesting an older buck as a way to positively influence the age structure of the state's deer herd.
