Ocellated turkey
The ocellated turkey (Meleagris ocellata) is a species of turkey residing primarily in the Yucatán Peninsula. A relative of the wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo), it was sometimes previously treated in a genus of its own (Agriocharis), but the differences between the two turkeys are currently considered too small to justify generic segregation. It is a relatively large bird, at around 70–122 cm (28–48 in) long and an average weight of 3 kg (6.6 lbs) in females and 5 kg (11 lbs) in males.
The ocellated turkey lives only in a 130,000 km2 (50,000 sq mi) range in the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico—which includes all or part the states of Quintana Roo, Campeche, Yucatán, Tabasco, and Chiapas—as well as the northern parts of Belize and Guatemala.
The body feathers of both sexes are a mixture of bronze and green iridescent color. Although females can be duller with more green, the breast feathers do not generally differ and can not be used to determine sex. Neither sex possesses the beard typically found in wild turkeys. Tail feathers of both sexes are bluish-grey with an eye-shaped, blue-bronze spot near the end with a bright gold tip. The spots, or ocelli (located on the tail), for which the ocellated turkey is named, have been likened to the patterning typically found on peafowl.[2] The upper, major secondary wing coverts are rich iridescent copper. The primary and secondary wing feathers have similar barring to that of North American turkeys, but the secondaries have more white, especially around the edges.
Both sexes have blue heads with some orange or red nodules, which are more pronounced on males. The males also have a fleshy blue crown covered with nodules, similar to those on the neck, behind the snood. During breeding season this crown swells up and becomes brighter and more pronounced in its yellow-orange color. The eye is surrounded by a ring of bright red skin, which is most visible on males during breeding season. The legs are deep red and are shorter and thinner than on North American turkeys. Males over one year old have spurs on the legs that average 4 cm (1.5 inches), which lengths of over 6 cm (2.5 inches) being recorded. These spurs are much longer and thinner than on North American turkeys.
Ocellated turkeys are much smaller than any of the subspecies of North American wild turkey, with adult hens weighing about 4 kg (8 pounds) before laying eggs and 3 kg (6–7 pounds) the rest of the year, and adult males weighing about 5–6 kg (11–15 pounds) during breeding season.[3]
Turkeys spend most of the time on the ground and often prefer to run to escape danger through the day rather than fly, though they can fly swiftly and powerfully for short distances as the majority of birds in this order do in necessity. Roosting is usually high in trees away from night-hunting predators such as jaguars and usually in a family group.
Female ocellated turkeys lay 8–15 eggs in a well concealed nest on the ground. She incubates the eggs for 28 days. The young are precocial and able to leave the nest after one night. They then follow their mother until they reach young adulthood when they begin to range though often re-grouping to roost.[3]
The voice is similar to the northern species: the male making the "gobbling" sound during the breeding season, while the female bird makes a "clucking" sound.
Branton and Berryhill (2007) have observed that the male ocellated turkey does not gobble per se like the wild turkey. Rather, his song is distinct and includes some six to seven bongo-like bass tones which quicken in both cadence and volume until a crescendo is reached whereupon the bird's head is fully erect while he issues forth a rather high-pitched but melodious series of chops. The ocellated turkey will typically begin his singing 20 to 25 minutes before sunrise—similar to the wild turkey.

The immediate aim is to have the pharmaceutical companies take care of disposing of extra drugs. But Alameda County in northern California wants to make manufacturers think about the life cycles of their products — from their creation to what happens when they're no longer needed. To Curb Costs, New California Health Plans Trim Care Choices By Pauline Bartolone • Dec 9, 2013 When Diane Shore got a letter that her health policy would be canceled, the small premium increase for the new plan didn't bother her that much. But the changes in her choices for care really bugged her. "My physicians will no longer be in this network of physicians, or the hospitals," she says. Shore, 62, owned an IT consulting business in the San Francisco Bay Area and retired when she sold it in 2000. She wants to stick with the health care providers that she's had for years, she says, including the surgeon who cared for her when she had breast cancer in 1998. Health Exchange Day One: A View From California By Pauline Bartolone • Oct 1, 2013 Copyright 2018 NPR. To see more, visit http://www.npr.org/. PAULINE BARTOLONE, BYLINE: I'm Pauline Bartolone in Sacramento. Calif. Seeks Answers On Questionable Prison Sterilizations By Pauline Bartolone • Sep 20, 2013 Sitting in her San Francisco living room, Kimberly Jeffrey is combing her son Noel's hair. He groans, but she meets his energy with calm — and adoration. Noel's birth was not an easy time. While Jeffrey was pregnant, she served a six-month sentence for petty theft at a state prison. When it came time to deliver Noel through a caesarean-section, Jeffrey was also confronted with the prospect of sterilization. Medical Discount Plan In Nevada Skips Insurers By Pauline Bartolone • Aug 13, 2013 Shelley Toreson, who lives near Reno, Nev., had health insurance for years — but not anymore. Instead, she is part of an unusual Nevada nonprofit that helps connect 12,000 uninsured residents to doctors and hospitals that are willing to accept a lower, negotiated fee for their services. California Weighs Expanded Role For Nurse Practitioners By Pauline Bartolone • May 9, 2013 As states gear up for the Affordable Care Act, they're trying to figure out if there will be enough providers of health care to meet demand from the newly insured. California is one of 15 states expected to consider legislation this year that would give advanced practice nurses more authority to care for patients without a doctor's supervision. Tina Clark is a nurse practitioner at Glide Health Services, a clinic in San Francisco's Tenderloin district, a low-income section of the city. Branding Health Care Exchanges To Make The Sale By Pauline Bartolone • Sep 25, 2012 As states work to comply with the federal health care law, many are designing their insurance exchanges, where people will be able to shop for coverage. But just the word "exchange" sounds to many like off-putting government-speak, and some states are eager to come up with a more appealing name for these new marketplaces. Peter Lee directs California's Health Benefit Exchange. It's up for a new name, and Lee says they want it to sound fresh, dynamic and innovative.

TAMPA, Fla. -- The Republican National Convention played host Wednesday evening to a tribute to Rep. Ron Paul, and signaled a potential passing of the torch to his son, Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul.
Texas Rep. Ron Paul did not speak at the Republican National Convention in Tampa, Fla., but a pre-produced video was shown in his absence.
Though the retiring Texas congressman was not in attendance for tonight's tribute, a series of lawmakers participated in a video toasting the career of Ron Paul, whose supporters have been a noticeable presence at the convention.
"Whether people want to admit it or not, Ron Paul changed the conversation," Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said in the video.
Acolytes of Paul's brand of libertarian conservatism appeared as well, including Sens. Jim DeMint of South Carolina, Mike Lee of Utah and Rand Paul of Kentucky, and Reps. Jimmy Duncan of Tennessee, Justin Amash of Michigan and Walter Jones of North Carolina. Ron Paul and his wife appeared as well.
Senator Rand Paul, R-Ky., criticizes President Obama for "punishing" the upper class while he delivers a speech at the Republican National Convention.
The Romney campaign had assented to the tribute as part of an overall effort to placate dedicated supporters of Paul, a two-time presidential candidate who sought to win enough delegates in a sufficient number of states to at least have his name put forth for nomination.
That effort prompted rules changes at the outset of this convention aimed at guarding against similar efforts to use the arcane delegate allocation rules to a grass-roots candidate's advantage.
But while the elder Paul appears set to exit the national stage, his son, Rand, appears poised to at least inherit supporters of his father, if not grow that coalition.
Rand Paul was welcomed to thunderous applause by supporters, some of whom chanted his name at the conclusion of the speech.
His speech continued the Republican "You Didn't Build That" attack, but featured one of the most forceful rebukes of President Barack Obama's health care reform law.
"I think if James Madison himself -- the father of the Constitution -- were here today he would agree with me: The whole damn thing is still unconstitutional!" he said.
Like his father, Rand Paul also broke with some Republican orthodoxies on foreign policy on a night set to feature some high-profile attacks on the Obama administration's national security record.
"Republicans must acknowledge that not every dollar spent on the military is necessary or well-spent," he said, drawing some cheers. (Many Republicans have sought to undo automatic defense spending cuts stipulated by the 2011 debt ceiling agreement.)
Rand Paul also won thunderous applause for warning against allowing curbs to civil rights in the name of national security.
"To thrive we must believe in ourselves again, and we must never -- never -- trade our liberty for any fleeting promise of security," he said.

Republicans gather in Tampa, Florida to officially nominate Mitt Romney and his running mate, Paul Ryan, as the party's candidates for the 2012 presidential election.

Wofford College will officially retire the #51 jersey number worn by Jerry Richardson in a ceremony during the October 29 football game against Elon. Richardson, a 1959 graduate of Wofford, is currently the owner of the Carolina Panthers.
"Retiring a jersey means, among other things, that the person who wore it was so extraordinary on the field that we never expect to see his like again," said Wofford College President Dr. Benjamin Dunlap. "In Jerry Richardson's case, we need to revise that meaning slightly because he has been as extraordinary off the field as on ¬- and because no one at Wofford College has done more through the years to discover and support future Jerry Richardson's than Jerry himself. Like all great players, he takes his teammates with him to greater heights."
Richardson came to Wofford in the mid-1950s as an unheralded pass receiver from Fayetteville, N.C. By the time he left to begin his pro career with the Baltimore Colts, the passing combination of Charlie Bradshaw to Jerry Richardson had received nationwide fame. Richardson was an Associated Press Little All-America selection in 1957 and '58.
He still holds Wofford's single-game record with 241 receiving yards vs. Newberry in 1956 and is the record holder for touchdown receptions in a season (9 in 1958) and in a career (21). As a senior at Wofford, he scored 72 points on nine touchdowns, 12 extra points and two field goals. Richardson calls his greatest honor being elected team captain in 1958. In 1983, he was chosen to Wofford's All-Time Football team as a receiver.
In addition to his prowess on the football field, Richardson was also active in numerous groups on the Wofford campus. He was a member of Kappa Alpha fraternity, President of the Inter-Fraternity Council, and member of the SCA Cabinet. Honors he received while at Wofford included Distinguished Military Student, Scabboard and Blade Military Fraternity, Sigma Delta Psi, Blue Key National Honorary Fraternity, and recognition in "Who's Who in American Universities and Colleges."
Drafted in the 13th round by the defending world champion Colts, Richardson played two seasons in the NFL, earning Colt Rookie of the Year honors in 1959. He caught a touchdown pass in the 1959 Championship game from Johnny Unitas.
Following his NFL career, Richardson embarked on a successful business career. From headquarters in Spartanburg, he co-founded Spartan Foods which was the first franchisee of Hardee's. He later was the CEO of Flagstar, which was the sixth largest food service company in the nation. Richardson is the only person to be inducted into both the North Carolina and South Carolina Business and Athletic Halls of Fame.
On October 26, 1993, Richardson became the first former NFL player since George Halas to become an owner when the Carolinas were unanimously awarded the NFL's 29th franchise. The team began play in 1995 and reached the NFC Championship game in the 1996 season. In 2004, the Panthers won the NFC Championship and advanced to Super Bowl XXVIII.
A lifelong resident of the Carolinas, Richardson and his wife, Rosalind Sallenger Richardson, have two sons, Jon and Mark, and a daughter, Ashley Richardson Allen, of Charlotte. The Richardsons have nine grandchildren and live in Charlotte.
While the #51 jersey has not been worn by a Wofford player since 1993, it had not been officially retired. The #1 jersey of Shawn Graves was retired on November 14, 1992, the final home game of his career.

A group of proud Cub Scouts will enjoy a patriotic moment today when a new flag is raised at the corner of 12th and May streets.
Through an intense fundraising effort, the Webelos Den of Cub Scout Pack No. 798 raised the almost $500 needed to replace the community's symbolic flag which was cut down from its pole in mid-September.
The achievement of the fourth and fifth grade students will be recognized during an official ceremony at 2:30 p.m. that will be attended by citizens, civic leaders, both city and county officials, and possibly representatives from the U.S. National Guard Armory in Hood River.
But no one at the event will be more touched by the moment than 11-year-old Jesse Schull. The young scout spearheaded the effort to replace the large flag that had been featured in the Hood River News as a symbolic tribute to the victims and heroes of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks on the East Coast.
"I felt bad and kind of mad at that person who stole it," said Schull.
In fact, that theft upset Schull so much that he personally raised $185 within a two-week period by soliciting contributions door-to-door. Then he decided to enlist the help of his peers and Mitch Hicks, cub master, said that plan dovetailed with some of the requirements to earn the citizen achievement badge.

Thanks, I'll call Mon. morning
Thanks, I'll call Mon. morning
Make sure you get your reservation in the mail. They won't let you in without it. Mine came the day the lineup was announced. That was a good day!
BUMP! this thread needs to be seen by everybody
Lake Cahuilla is THE PLACE TO BE!!!!!!!!
I have a RV site reserved at Lake Cahuilla, we have 8 or 9 people coming with us, however you are only allowed 6 per site. Our Rv will fit everyone, but I don't want to be stuck not being able to get some of us in. Does anyone have a site reserved and not having up to 6 on it? if you are willing to share your reservation, please contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com.
this is my first time to coachella..theres about 6 people in my group. we originally wanted to just do onsite camping to make things simple..but my friends dont wanna deal with the silly rules that go along with camping onsite. is lake cahuilla really the place to be? even for a first timer? what do you guys think? im lookin to book something today or tomorrow for my group.
Have you ever camped onsite? It's far superior to Cahuilla as far as I'm concerned. Haven't camped there in a few years, but when we did we were coughing for a week because of the dust AND we had to deal with traffic everyday as opposed to just when we arrived and left.
Onsite=nice grass, showers, walking distance to festival. no-brainer
I tried booking lake cahuilla and it said it was closed. whats the deal with that?
its probably sold out already, you snooze you lose.
.................................................. ..............
She added the phrase "meany head" to my profile.I hardly think I'm an attention whore.I train birds of prey and am I licensed falconer
Anyone know if overflow is sold out yet?
The lady said there were 2 developed sites left when I called this morning so I grabbed one. I did Overflow(primitive) last year as a first timer because my brother wasn't 18 yet and it was awesome! We got there around 1am friday night, picked a spot and pitched a tent. It was fine all we did was sleep and shower there which wasn't too bad! The sun will hit about 8am and the heat will be unbearable but I think that'ss be anywhere where you're in a tent. All in all it was a cool place to stay!
Anyone have any extra room at their site?
two words why off-site (Lake Cahuilla) is better than on-site camping:
so a friend of mine told me he called today(or yesterday) to reserve an overflow spot and said it was sold out. is it EVER sold out this early?
glad i got my spot last week.
called Monday morning (1/29) and actually got a developed site, was very surprised. lets see... paying about $1000 for a hotel and being isolated or going to Cahuilla for a constant party, and meeting good people???? camped here in 03' and 04' and can't wait to get back. this is part of the experience for me, i just hope its not so fucking hot this time.
anybody bringing drums or guitars or anything? I'll probably bring my djembe along, you'll hear it right after you see a cloud of smoke rise from my site
I'll bring the static.
Dose any one remember/know what the policy on extra vehicles at Cahuilla is; how much it costs and if there is a limit. I know I read it somewhere but I can't seem to find it. Thanks.
lake cahuilla is a fun place to stay while out there...
it might not seem like it when you're there though
...well, I guess that depends
AHHHH!! i cant waite. i was like 45$ to camp onsite at coachella per person, fvct that, 6 people, 4nights 55$ at the Lake. so stoked. is primitive the spot 2B?
I have Sat & Sun reserved at Lake Cahuilla; Site #CAH-048 (developed with electricity), and I don't need it now. It is on the outside of the develped sites so it looks toward the lake and primative spots.
Let me know if you want it because someone offered me $75 (it cost $43). You can have up to 6 people and 2 vehicles. With electricity you can run an air conditioner or fridge. That's plush camping...sk8mike
the place is full. Are there any other sites that are near it that would be cool to be at? I am a first timer so I have no clue.
I'm looking to purchase an RV site with full hook up april 26-30th.... I have a reservation in overflow but would prefer a spot for a 35ft RV.
Please email me here or firstname.lastname@example.com
So is Lake Cahuilla just like a big open area or is it wooded in? I know this is probably a stupid question but camping where Im from is wooded.

I had been to some of Google's old offices but never the Googleplex. It's worth a visit. Located in Silicon Valley, it features valet parking, delicious and free lunches, grand pianos, lava lamps, and more. I visited my friends Gokul and Elad there and of course left some cacao behind for Larry Page, a co-founder and fellow Michigan Wolverine. You can see Gokul, Elad, and I rioting at the Googleplex and you'll kindly see Gokul rolling the precious sweetriot cacao cargo through his offices.
Although sweetriot is mainly in the cacao business, it's important to stay up to date on the latest Internet developments. I've attached some photos behind-the-scenes. Let me know if you've been there recently too.

Prairie Central defeats Pontiac in regional contest
A halftime talk about rebounding and an eight-point run in the middle of the third quarter provided the host Hawks with what they needed to advance to the final of the Class 3A Prairie Central Regional girls' basketball tournament Wednesday night.
"You just have to survive and advance this time of year," PC head coach Tom Garriott said.
It was survival as the Hawks managed to keep Pontiac in check after taking the lead for good three minutes into the second half. The Indians battled but did not have enough steam to get any closer than three points after PC's 8-0 run.
A key was rebounding.
"We were getting beat 12-7 in rebounds. Rebounding was the challenge at halftime," Garriott said. His team won the battle of the boards in the second half to outrebound Pontiac 22-19 for the game.
Pontiac led 15-14 at the intermission after outscoring the Hawks 7-5 in a lackluster second quarter.
Prairie Central came a bit warmer than the Indians in the third period with six points in the first two minutes for a 20-18 advantage. The first basket came on an offensive rebound by Laura Crane off a Gabby Weber miss.
Kiana Coomber added two baskets to counter Ashley Harfst's 3-pointer. PTHS tied it at 20-20 when Rachael Fearman cut to the basket on an inbound play with 5:26 to go in the quarter.
Coomber, who scored eight straight points for the Hawks, hit from 15 feet to make it 22-20 on PC's ensuing possession. The Hawks did not trail the rest of the night.
Coomber converted a steal, Crane hit from 15 feet and Emily Shiflett drilled one from 15 to put Prairie Central ahead 28-20.
The Hawks led 30-21 at the end of the third period after Coomber scored on a put-back with a minute left.
Prairie Central's biggest lead of the night was 32-21 when Weber scored on a put-back for PC's third score off an offensive rebound in the half.
Pontiac fought back to close the gap to within three with an 8-0 run of its own. It was mainly Kaela Hodges doing the damage. She scored inside, hit two free throws and added a put-back deuce in a two-minute span to make it 32-29 with five minutes left in the game.
"Our defense is what got us through tonight," Garriott said. "We locked down on defense better in the second half."
Hurting Pontiac's cause in the first half was Hodges picking up two fouls in the first 4 1/2 minutes. She sat the rest of the half. But the Indians still held a one-point lead at the break after trailing 9-8 at the end of the first quarter.
Both teams had difficulty finding their range from the field.
"We weren't hitting our shots," Garriott said. "They packed in the paint and our shots weren't falling."
Coomber led the Hawks (16-11) with 18 points. Crane added 8 while Weber and Shiflett had 5 points apiece. Cassie Somers chipped in 3 points.
Harfst led Pontiac (19-8) with 12 points. Hodges finished with 7 while Kelsey Walsberg and Fearman scored 6 points apiece. Michaela Dohleman checked in with 1 point.
PTHS head coach Mindy Whitehouse was not available for comment after the game.
Prairie Central will take on Ottawa tonight for the title and spot at the Washington Sectional. Ottawa defeated LaSalle-Peru 60-31 in Wednesday's first game.

A reader alerted us to this Middle East Media Research Institute article on Osama bin Laden's videotape. MEMRI says that a significant part of Osama's threat against the U. S. has not been accurately translated:
The tape of Osama bin Laden that was aired on Al-Jazeera on Friday, October 29th included a specific threat to "each U.S. state," designed to influence the outcome of the upcoming election against George W. Bush. The U.S. media in general mistranslated the words "ay wilaya" (which means "each U.S. state") to mean a "country" or "nation" other than the U.S., while in fact the threat was directed specifically at each individual U.S. state. This suggests some knowledge by bin Laden of the U.S. electoral college system. In a section of his speech in which he harshly criticized George W. Bush, bin Laden stated: "Any U.S. state that does not toy with our security automatically guarantees its own security."
The Islamist website Al-Qal'a explained what this sentence meant: "This message was a warning to every U.S. state separately. When he [Osama Bin Laden] said, 'Every state will be determining its own security, and will be responsible for its choice,' it means that any U.S. state that will choose to vote for the white thug Bush as president has chosen to fight us, and we will consider it our enemy, and any state that will vote against Bush has chosen to make peace with us, and we will not characterize it as an enemy. By this characterization, Sheikh Osama wants to drive a wedge in the American body, to weaken it, and he wants to divide the American people itself between enemies of Islam and the Muslims, and those who fight for us, so that he doesn't treat all American people as if they're the same. This letter will have great implications inside the American society, part of which are connected to the American elections, and part of which are connected to what will come after the elections."
Interesting. If that is correct, the speech was a much more direct attempt to influence the election than has been reported.
MEMRI agrees with the interpretation of the speech as an implicit admission of failure or defeat:
Another conspicuous aspect of the tape is the absence of common Islamist themes that are relevant to the month of Ramadan, which for fundamentalists like bin Laden is the month of Jihad and martyrdom. Noticeably absent from the Al-Jazeera tape was his usual appearance with a weapon, and more importantly the absence of references to Jihad, martyrdom, the Koran, the Hadith (Islamic tradition), Crusaders, Jews, and the legacy of the Prophet Muhammad on the duty to wage Jihad against the infidels. For the followers of the Al-Qa'ida ideology, this speech sends a regressive and defeatist message of surrender, as seen in the move from solely using Jihad warfare to a mixed strategy of threats combined with truce offers and election deals.
It is striking how little intelligent commentary on bin Laden's tape there has been in the mainstream media.

Roy Williams and Mike Krzyzewski bleed different shades of blue. Williams obsesses over golf, Krzyzewski couldn't be bothered. Krzyzewski apprenticed under Bob Knight, Williams under Dean Smith.
But on this the two Hall of Fame coaches agree: North Carolina center Tyler Zeller should be the ACC Player of the Year.
Media ballots for All-ACC and the conference's individual awards are due Sunday night at the regular season's conclusion, and Saturday night Zeller offered a compelling closing argument.
A 7-foot senior, Zeller scored 19 points on 9-of-11 shooting and grabbed 10 rebounds as North Carolina routed Duke 88-70 at Cameron Indoor Stadium to claim the ACC regular-season title.
"Zeller has had a player of the year performance," Duke's Krzyzewski said afterward. "I think first-team All-American type of year. The kid is a great player and great kid. He never seems to get tired. He has an amazing physical presence.
"He puts so much pressure on you the way he runs the floor, and inside, he is just a high percentage shooter. … His team has won the league, and he has shown up every night on a real high level."
Saturday marked the first time in 110 college games that Zeller has fouled out. But in a mere 26 minutes, he affected the game at both ends.
It was especially satisfying given his role in Duke's comeback victory at Carolina last month. There Zeller missed a late free throw and gave Austin Rivers too much room on the final possession, allowing the Blue Devils freshman to make a game-winning 3-pointer at the buzzer.
"We watched a lot of tape of that first game," Zeller said. "We didn't want to make the same mistakes."
Williams said Zeller took the defeat and subsequent criticism personally. The Tar Heels are 7-0 since, and Zeller is a primary reason.
Last Saturday he capped a 20-point effort at Virginia with a decisive drive-and-dunk in the final minute. In his final home game, he torched Maryland for 30 points.
"You watch him during warm-up (Saturday), there was not one smile on that young man," Williams said. "There was not one second where he wasn't focused. … Here's a guy who is the Academic All-American Player of the Year, and that's pretty impressive, and you look down there and he's 9-of-11 with 19 points and 10 rebounds. That means he's a pretty daggum good basketball player."
Good enough to be ACC Player of the Year?
The only other viable candidate is Virginia's Mike Scott, who's surrounded by far less talent and shoots from a far greater distance. Scott and the Cavaliers close their regular season Sunday at Maryland. I'm holding my ballot until then.
Here are their numbers to date:
Zeller averages 16.3 points and 9.3 rebounds per game. He's shooting 54.9 percent, second in the league.
Scott averages 17.3 points and 8.2 rebounds. He's shooting a conference-best 57.4 percent.
In ACC games, Scott's norms are 18.5 and 7.5. Zeller's are 18.5 and 9.7. Scott is shooting 54.7 percent in league play, Zeller 56.9.
Very tough call.

When Sun started the process of open sourcing Solaris 10 about three years ago, it sufficed to have a website dedicated to programmers. OpenSolaris.org was the place where OpenSolaris was being built, and for a while, according to Dan Roberts, director of product management for Solaris and OpenSolaris at Sun, this worked out just fine. However, later on, people expected something else on OpenSolaris.org: a distribution. "They were looking for something that they could understand, that they could deploy, that they could use."
He continues to explain that Solaris 10 was mostly a monolithic package, a very complete operating system filled with stuff that a lot of people simply don't need. More or less he said that Solaris 10 was a bit overkill if you just wanted to deploy a php application on Apache. The new package manager is part of trying to solve this problem, to make Solaris 10 less monolithic. The IPS system also uses ZFS; if your package upgrade goes tits up, you will be able to roll back to a stable system using ZFS snapshots - you can make a ZFS snapshot right before you start the update process.
Jim McHugh, vice president of Solaris marketing at Sun, explains a little further:
And they're going to update the default shell to understand the backspace key. Just so you know.
You can download the new release from the OpenSolaris.com website.

During the final 49 weeks until Kickoff 2013, we will take a moment each week to look at various aspects of the football program.
Jan. 27, 2013
By Tom Whitestone
A year ago at this time we were anticipating the signing of our first class.
We had coaches but we didn't have a team. Our program was taking shape. Construction was well underway on the stadium. Schedules were taking shape. But we didn't have a team.
Now, we are about to officially sign our next class of football players. We have a team - and it's about to get better.
An announcement went out last week to promote the second Signing Day Chalk Talk. The reception is held on the Salon level of the Barnhardt Student Activity Center. Dinner and beverages will be served. The 49ers coaching staff will take to the mike to discuss the new class while photos and video of the players appear on the big screen.
For those who attended the function last year, the night not only provides that first look at the new class of players - but a welcome glimpse of the coaching staff. Each coach will talk about the fresh faces at their respective positions.
Between the notes they will share about each player, the stories they may tell and the excitement they have, you're likely to learn as much about the coaches themselves as the players they recruited.
A year ago, we got our first look at first-ever signee. We learned about some potential QB prospects. We were introduced to players with names like Tank and Sledge. Over 25 signees were paraded in photos and video in front of our eyes.
Head coach Brad Lambert had promised to build his team from the inside out - so several linemen, both offensive and defensive, began to take shape for us. It was also important to the coaching staff to land players at each position to try build the very foundation for the program.
Now, with a semester of practice under their belts, the 49ers are able to fill in the gaps. The 49ers can add some depth, plug some holes and fill some needs.
In addition, this second class will add age. Lambert had a few upperclassmen at practice in the fall -- some transfers from four-year institutions who already had a basic understanding of the demands of college football. Those upperclassmen provided the added bonus of coaches on the field. The younger players could look to them for answers. They provided basic leadership and, as Lambert said, you could see the benefits those players brought to their position meetings and drills.
Now, more upperclassmen will be added to provide another dose of that leadership. Some already transferred in, mid-semester. More will come in the 49ers second class - along with another promising freshman class anxious to be a part of 49ers history.
The new class will be introduced to Niner Nation, next Thursday night, Feb. 7. It's a great evening that brings fans inside the recruiting process and up close with the coaches that our leading our team. And of course it gives us a clearer picture of the players that we will be cheering in years to come.
Last year, we met our first-ever signee. This year we meet our next.

The good folks over at Fake Shore Drive just announced the latest lineup for its Red Bull Sound Select Presents: Chicago concert series. The event will take place Sept. 19. The series has showcased artists like Gunplay, Master P, Freddie Gibbs, Chance The Rapper, Lil Herb & Lil Bibby, Tree, Tink, Sasha Go Hard, ShowYouSuck, The Cool Kids and L.E.P Bogus Boys.
This time around the show features newcomers Lucki Eck$, ZMoney, and Giftz and is headlined by none other than former Cash Money producer/rapper Mannie Fresh. Not familiar with the new names? Here's a quick breakdown:
- Z-Money stormed out of nowhere earlier this summer with TWO mixtapes dropping the same day. His style can be directly traced to artists like Gucci Mane. Keep an eye on him.
- Lucki Eck$ is a direct contrast to the current stuff Chicago rap is putting out. He has a sparse sound and consistent lyrics. His mixtape "Alternative Trap" was lauded by a lot of rap writers and should be gaining momentum soon.
- Giftz is a damn fine rapper from the burgeoning East Side (Yes, Chicago has an East Side.) and has a quality song or two already in the stacks. His new mixtape "Position of Power" is worth checking out.
If you don't know who Mannie Fresh is, I don't want to know you. he produced this. And this. And this. And produced AND RAPPED on this. Seriously though, we can never be friends. His DJ set will feature all of that, plus bounce/rap/whatever else he feels like. I'm VERY excited right now.
RSVP for tickets will open Wednesday to the public at noon via redbullsoundselect.com, and can be reserved here. Tickets can be reserved on the platform for a discount of $5, and will also be on sale at the door for $10.

Denim has been revolutionised in recent times and the last few years have seen denim be used by menswear designers to make a true statement. Whether skinny, twisted, acid bright faded, torn, studded, boot-leg: some might say that 'jeans maketh man.' And they wouldn't be far wrong.
So, what would these jeans say about a male? They lace up (with white leather might I add) the side and turn up at the bottom. The have a diamond pattern detail on the back pockets and come from one of the coolest labels of the moment.
Yay or Nay my friends? Vote after the jump.

Your company's employees are downloading free or inexpensive mobile productivity apps on their own steam, and IT doesn't have much control: 66% of the 322 respondents to our 2012 Mobile Security Survey allow employees to install personal applications on corporate-owned mobile devices; 27% have no restrictions in place whatsoever.
Instead of swimming against this tide, why not channel the enthusiasm? Benefits of innovative apps include less dependence on email, improved social collaboration and all-around better productivity. The main areas to wrangle are security, connectivity, compatibility with enterprise systems and back-end integration.
The best route is to maintain an active whitelist or an in-house app store where IT vets any apps that will interact with company data or networks. If that's not feasible:
1. Realize that the best productivity apps select themselves. Users won't like a kludgy, nonintuitive app, no matter how secure or manageable, so don't try and push poorly designed tools. Our new report, "App Dev in the Age of Mobility," runs down device platforms, design choices and development tools and options, and offers recommendations for those interested in mobilizing enterprise applications and business processes.
2. Have an open-door (or in-box) policy. Encourage users to run potential apps by IT. It's better to know up front what's going on devices than to be surprised. At a minimum, investigate what assets the app will access and looks for security red flags. In our report on BYOD strategies, we discuss how to build a resilient, scalable enterprise plan based on virtualization and mobile device management technology.
3. Consider a managed service that can provide security around the mobile apps in use, says Chris Marsh, senior enterprise mobility analyst at Yankee Group. "These services can restrict, for example, whether Skype users can share corporate data. In this way, IT won't be preventing people from using mobile apps but rather making sure security is in place to prevent sharing corporate data," Marsh said.
There are 40 to 50 mobile device management/managed mobile service providers in the market, from Dell and IBM to incumbent security vendors like McAfee to cloud-based MDM players like Virtela. "These companies enable the enterprise to impose policies and mobile security to protect its data," Marsh said. We run down a number of options in our MDM Buyer's Guide.
An expense-account tracker for iOS, iXpenseIt records each expense/transaction on the device enterprise users always carry--a smartphone. IXpenseIt takes photo snapshots of receipts and catalogs them, generating graphical reports users can quickly scan. It supports user-friendly mileage tracking, including user-customized reimbursement rates.
The tool compares monthly budgets to expenses, and the daily spending average to the current day's spend. The app outputs expense summaries and enables the user to easily track recurring expenses, and supports value-added tax and good and services tax calculations. Users can export records as spreadsheets or HTML-based reports. The app can forward reports and data off the device using email or Wi-Fi. Users can transmit records with the digital photo receipt attached, for expedited reimbursement.
The $4.99 app supports world currencies and currency conversion and 12 languages. All data is password-protected.
Dragon Dictation converts the spoken word to text on the iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch (Android users can download Dragon Go!). The text is instantly available to text-based applications, such as email, blogs, Twitter, SMS, to-do lists, reminder software and anything the user can paste text into after copying it to a clipboard.
The Dragon Naturally Speaking-enabled app enhances productivity--and keeps employees in line with local laws--by allowing hands- and eyes-free operation. In addition, dictation is typically faster than typing; five times faster, according to Nuance.
One security caveat: The software processes speech in the cloud, and anyone who downloads the app must allow Nuance to use the speech data collected to improve performance of the app. So, Nuance keeps a copy. On the plus side, the app is free.
Polycom RealPresence Mobile enables enterprise-class videoconferencing on the iPhone 4S, iPad 2, and certain Android devices, including the Motorola Xoom, Droid Xyboard 10.1 by Motorola and Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 tablets.
Using the Polycom RealPresence Mobile platform and HD technology, H.323 and SIP protocols, users can communicate among these mobile devices as well as endpoint clients including the Polycom Telepresence m100, the Polycom CMA Desktop, the Polycom Multipoint Bridge RMX Series, and the Polycom HDX Series. The app may not work with non-Polycom endpoints and software on the other end of the call.
The app connects to Polycom videoconferencing technologies in the cloud and on site and enables users to roam among mobile networks and Wi-Fi; it can securely identify and authenticate users on both sides of a call. Capabilities IT will like include access to enterprise directories, preconfiguration and multipoint calling.
The free app uses Polycom Constant Clarity technology for compression to ensure quality audio and video over wireless networks. The app supports VPN clients.
TripIt apps for Android, BlackBerry, iPhone, iPad and Windows Phone organize travel documents and information and generate travel itineraries, confirming plans and reservations. The TripIt mobile app uses a dashboard to notify travelers of the next connection on their lists, including boarding times. Upon landing, TripIt provides the next gate number or alternate flight options. Trips organized on TripIt are private; data sharing is optional. TripIt is TrustE- certified and PCI-compliant, and has passed rigorous security audits by Fortune 500 companies like American Express, according to the company. Concur hosts the app in the cloud at a SAS 70 type II-compliant secure facility.
The basic TripIt app is free, but you'll have to put up with advertising. An ad-free version costs $3.99. The premium service is $49 per year.
The iAnnotate PDF app enables users to annotate and organize PDF files on their iPads with an array of customizable tools. For example, a user could add notes and bookmarks for team members or aid in research and recall. The app includes a tool to navigate PDFs and search their content.
Users can view several PDFs simultaneously by using the tabbed viewing feature, scroll through pages and easily zoom in for a closer look. The app comes with single-tap navigation of tools including, highlighter, pen, typewriter, notes, markup, photos and voice recording.
Users can annotate photos taken with the iPad 2 or from a photo library. The iAnnotate app is available for $9.99 at the App Store.
Google recently snapped up QuickOffice, which works on Android, iPad, iPhone and Symbian-based phones.
The QuickOffice mobile app enables users to create, edit, store and share files from the Microsoft Office Suite including PowerPoint, Excel and Word. Quick Office connects to Dropbox, Box and Google Docs. Users work with these apps inside QuickOffice. QuickOffice Pro HD for iPad and Android Honeycomb start at $19.99.

but what if you wanted to learn a "serious" language like... python? it's not too serious, but you can get real jobs done. before you do real jobs with python, you'll need to learn python. fortunately python and turtle art have a lot in common.
python doesn't have built in turtle art commands. to illustrate how turtle art and python are similar, i'm going to pretend there's a "module" (a group of extra commands) called "art." in reality there is a module very much like turtle art, but my imaginary one is probably closer still. instead of using the command "forward" in turtle art, and putting a number box with 10 next to it, we'll say: art.forward(10) ... special art module commands begin with "art." regular python commands will not.
- Code: Select all
import art
# load an imaginary module for commands nearly identical to turtle art.
here is a program in turtle art you may have seen before: http://en.flossmanuals.net/floss/publis ... tch4_1.png i would love to just add the picture here, instead i'm going to link to it out of some politeness to the author rather than copy the image (thus the entire license) here. click on the link, then come back to read the program version.
before we begin imitating that program in python, a couple things. #this is a comment.
comments are anything after the # sign, python ignores them. they're only for humans. also to help the "store in box" commands in turtle art (it uses box1 and box2) we're going to make boxes using real python commands:
- Code: Select all
# make a group of three boxes: box[0], box[1], box[2]
# put a zero in each of the three boxes
box[1] is for the "store in box 1" command, it currently contains a zero.
other than that, here is a python program that looks a lot like the turtle art program. if someone wrote a python module called "art" with the proper code, this program could do the same thing it does in turtle art:
- Code: Select all
box[1]=0 # store in box1: 0
# a_unique_name should have a unique name
# otherwise the program may not do what you want
# repeat 1300
for a_unique_name in range(1300):
art.set_color(art.xcor() / 6)
if you can compare this code with the picture on the next page, you see that typing code is a little more trouble than using cartoon boxes, but it's also very similar. how you're expected to type the code depends on the language, we did it in a python way, which is a lot like the turtle art way. one of the most important differences between turtle art and python is that you can have much longer programs, you can write smaller programs and "call" them from a larger program, and you don't have to "fit" it all on the screen, or scroll from side to side like you would have to with a picture, or with turtle art.
now that you see real python code, and depending on what the functions are called (because they shouldn't overlap with existing python commands) you may be able to load the whole art.module like this:
- Code: Select all
from art import *
now art.commands are just "commands." this makes it even easier to see what a turtle art program would look like in python:
# make a group of three boxes: box[0], box[1], box[2]
# put a zero in each
box[1]=0 # store in box1: 0
# repeat 1300
for a_unique_name in range(1300):
set_color(xcor() / 6)
that's turtle art vs. python!
if you like turtle art and you think you'd like to learn more about python, try some of the examples in "pippy" (the sugar icon looks like a snake.) most of sugar is written in python, so it's the source when you use the "view source" key..

Kids need enough calories and nutrients for proper physical growth and mental development, but too many calories can lead to unhealthy weight gain.
These tips can help you strike the right balance to achieve a healthy weight for your kids.
Check up on weight at checkups. Your child's doctor will probably track your child's weight each year by using a measurement called the body mass index. The BMI evaluates your child's weight in relation to height. If your child is gaining too much or too little weight, consult the doctor or a registered dietitian.
Start with the basics. A healthy weight for kids starts at home. Provide meals and snacks that include a variety of nutritious foods from the five MyPyramid food groups, and encourage kids to get at least 60 minutes of daily physical activity. Learn about Smart Snacking for Kids and Ideas to Get Kids Up and Moving.
Let kids self-regulate from the start. Toddlers and preschoolers are great at tuning in to their tummies to know when they've had enough to eat. Let them decide when they want more food or when they've had enough. This sets the stage for nutritious eating habits throughout life.
Skip the food fights. For children of any age, don't insist that they clean their plates and don't forbid foods like cookies or candy, which might make kids want them even more. Instead, provide occasional treats in reasonable portion sizes.
Keep calories under control. Encourage appropriate Portion Sizes for Kids. Also, trim extra calories by serving lean meats, low-fat or fat-free dairy products and sugar-free versions of items such as yogurt and soft drinks.
Focus on positive choices, not a number on a scale. Rather than fixating on weight, encourage your kids to engage in healthy behaviors. Teach kids that good eating and physical activity help them stay strong and healthy and feel good. Give them positive feedback for making smart choices, like choosing fruit for a snack or playing outside instead of watching TV.
Make smart living a family affair. Work as a team on activities such as meal planning, grocery shopping, cooking, housecleaning and yard work. These activities teach kids valuable life skills and give you an opportunity to shine as a role model. Have fun, too, by taking walks, going swimming and playing active games together.
Foster a realistic body image. Kids come in all shapes and sizes, and it's normal for their bodies to change as they grow and develop. Reassure them that there's no "perfect" body size and that you love them as they are. To build their confidence and self-esteem, point out their special talents such as being a math whiz or a jump rope champ.
Be a positive role model. Parents need to set an example by following a healthy diet and exercising.

All across the nation, perhaps the world, little boys (and a few little girls, I am sure) play soldier in the afternoon after school. Perhaps they play cowboys and indians or attack each other in pine cone battles to the death. They go in to wash up, eat supper, do their homework. Then they tune to the USA Network.
And now, Combat Missions! A USA Original Series! proudly proclaims the television. Original would certainly be one way of putting it, yes.
The TV assures the little boys and girls (and us bigger boys and girls) that Combat Missions shows us the best our (USA) military has to offer.
The next day, the little boys go out to play after school. They choose teams for football, or perhaps put on baseball gloves. Some throw frisbees or balls to their dogs, while others hasten to join the school band. But after seeing Combat Missions the night before, they arent playing soldier. Theyve seen the best our military has to offer, and his name is Scott Helvenston. And theyre not playing soldier, anymore.

Scott Helvenston has the distinction of being the youngest man ever to become a United States Navy SEAL when he was 17. Since, he has become a world champion pentathlete, and won several marksmanship prizes. Remember as you read this that Helvenston is supposedly THE BEST our military has to offer.
The show opens with the traditional falling in of the contestants to hear Col. Rudys boring remarks. With my expertise of the military, I can assure you that soldiers get as much sleep as they can whenever they can. Look at these guys closely: they are literally asleep on their feet as Col. Rudy talks. They wake up just long enough to hear Col. Rudy welcome the new players. Id like to welcome the new guys that were chosen. You poor bOObs. *SLAP!* (Dawg! This is not Survivor!) Er, sorry about that, folks.
The show opens with Scott Helvenston working out in the cold weather in shorts, shoes, and nothing else. Col. Rudy remarks that Helvenston has a great body, but a big mouth. I wish I were in as good shape as he is. Hes in such great shape
what a body
. Rudy? Rudy! It appears that Rudy hung out with Dicque a little too much in Survivor I. Where is that medic babe Heather when Rudy REALLY needs her? Col. Rudy also says that Helvenston can walk the talk, like Muhammad Ali. Col. Rudy, have you SEEN Muhammad Ali lately? The poor man is battling Parkinsons Disease. At least Ali has an excuse. Helvenston is going to be shaking, but it will be the result of blunt force trauma from a blanket party that he is surely going to get.
After a little bit of verbal jabbing and confessionals between Alphas OShea and Helvenston, they are ready for the first training exercise. They must shoot paper targets with their rifles. At this time, Helvenston begins to annoy Alpha with trash talk. Hes trying to get into Alphas heads, and he succeeds. After two rounds, Delta has a commanding lead on Alpha (16-9). The final score is Delta 20, Alpha 12, mostly because Alpha was trying to shoot Helvenston instead of the targets. Helvenston hid behind Sgt. Maj. Voiceover and avoided being shot. Helvenston is very good at hiding behind others. Delta gets 25 points, not for winning, but for not taking a few shots at Helvenston themselves.
The LA SWAT Old Man is still hanging around, since he has nowhere else in particular to be. He says that Helvenston is a real troublemaker, but successful, and he can be a real pain. Meanwhile, Helvenston is claiming that his childish behavior is merely PsyOps, which means psychological operations in military-ese. Helvenston, let me tell you something: my closest co-worker is was in Viet Nam with the 173d Airborne Brigade. He subsequently served in the 101st Airborne Division before going to the JFK Special Operations Center at Ft. Bragg, NC, to do (guess what) PsyOps.
Scott, I know PsyOps. PsyOps is a friend of mine. Scott, youre no PsyOps.
Oates of Alpha Squad suggests in confession that Helvenston is acting like Oates three year old child when he wants attention. Meanwhile everyone goes for the mission briefing. Sgt. Maj. Voiceover, whose voice sounds like a voiceover even when it doesnt need to, gives the mission brief. Sgt. Maj. Voiceover has no new awards on his chest. They mustve run out of those at MB headquarters.
The mission is called Pilot Down, yet another unoriginal name that we have come to expect from this bunch. The idea is to rescue a downed pilot from the Opposing Force (OPFOR). MB calls his OPFOR the Shadow Squad. We can call them the John Wayne Squad because they like to stand up in the open to shoot, then seem surprised when they get killed. The team must go to an extract point, then the briefers tell us that there is an alternate extract point. Any ROTC cadet can tell you that something is going to happen and theyll have to go to the alternate extract point. The Alternate Extract Point is 400 meters (over 400 yards) away from the Primary Extract Point, over rough, hilly terrain.
There are snow flurries in the camp, but that doesnt stop Nutter of Delta squad from going outside without his shirt. There is a 2d exercise before the mission, the criss-cross grid that was seen a few episodes ago. Either MB is losing his creativity, or hes running out of money. We can only hope its the latter.
Helvenston talks trash, then as the starting whistle blows, he runs and hides behind his Delta comrades. Alpha cant get to him. The first match is waved off for some violation of the rules. Helvenston and Alphas Spicer talk some trash as Helvenston proclaims You aint got no honor! You aint got no honor! with a little dance to go along with it. No, Scotty-boy, YOU aint got no honor. Remember, folks, that this guy is the best our military has to offer.
In confessional, Spicer says that Helvenston is not acting like a professional. Nutter thinks the whole conflict is funny. In the second face-off, someone from Alpha gets up to Helvenston and hits him on the back of the head. A Delta puts that Alpha in a headlock as a near-fistfight ensues. Helvenston says in confessional They never got me., showing that he has an alternate version of reality from most of us
or maybe that head blow he took just damaged his memory. Of course, it WAS hard to get to him, he kept hiding behind others. Remember, folks, that this guy is supposedly THE BEST our military has to offer.
In the third heat, Helvenston hides behind his Delta teammates and is one of two Deltas still standing when the rest are in the water. Delta wins the competition and gets 50 points, bringing their total to 1075 for the mission. Afterward, Spicer talks to the other Deltas to see if they can bring Helvenston under control. For the moment, he leaves it at that. Estadt (of Delta), however, says that the Deltas will protect each other and take care of their own. Oates of Alpha says hes about to cry and wants to go to the ring with Helvenston. And OShea, a Navy SEAL himself, says that Helvenston has crossed the line.
Sensing trouble brewing, Col. Rudy calls a meeting of all four squads. Sgt. Maj. Voiceover tells us that the players respect Col. Rudy because Rudy has served his country longer than most of the players have been alive. I respect Rudys long record of service, also, and am saddened that such a great patriot is reduced to having to be on this show.
At the meeting, the Alphas bluntly say that Helvenston is displaying a lack of sportsmanship, to which Helvenston cries Waah! OShea points out that its embarrassing and its personal and H. is hurting himself. Spicer goes further, saying that H. is embarrassing the Navy SEALs. At this point, general chaos ensues, and Helvenston is heard crying out break out the polygraph! Helvenston asks if anyone else is embarrassed by his conduct. Sergeant Major Dever, in the first time speaking without a voiceover, says Yes, Im embarrassed by you, also. Woooooo. Helvenston replies I only care about what my teammates think. I certainly dont care what a voiceover like you thinks! Charlies Cade also says that H. is an embarrassment to all the players there. As Col. Rudy begins to speak, H. interrupts with some waah, waah type talk and Sgt. Maj. Voiceover thunders DONT INTERRUPT THE COMMANDER! H. shuts up for the first time that day.
Col. Rudy, knowing that Helvenstons safety and perhaps his life is in serious danger (not kidding here at all, folks), takes Helvenston to another tent to talk privately. Helvenston turns on his @$$-kissing skills as Col. Rudy tells him to keep his mouth shut. Helvenston tells Rudy that Rudy reminds him of his grandfather. Rudy should slap the crap out of H. for comparing him to ANY Helvenston family member, but he returns H.s hug instead. Rudy has learned how to be a TV personality, fer sure.
And Helvenston is supposed to be THE BEST our military has to offer.
Meanwhile, Sgt. Maj. Voiceover attempts to soothe Alpha. Rudy is in the Snake Pit (bar) with all the Deltas, again admonishing Helvenston to keep his mouth shut.

The cost of gas may greatly affect a family with one or two vehicles, but Brunswick County Schools has 161 buses that use about 1,700 gallons of fuel every day.
To help offset the cost, the district has reworked a few bus routes and stops, hoping to use the district's fuel as effectively and as efficiently as possible.
Steve Miley, executive director of operations, said there were 6,400 rides last year and about 4,000 stops. About 10 percent of the routes were affected in this year's cleanup.
Local community leaders will try and prove they are smarter than students at The Evelyn Smith Wray Village School when they participate in "Are You Smarter Than a Village Schooler?" a fundraiser based on the popular TV show "Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?"
Twelve local figures will compete against fifth- and sixth-graders from The Evelyn Smith Wray Village School during the event at 6 p.m. Sept. 13 at Odell Williamson Auditorium.
If you could spend a few hours a week and have an impact that would last a lifetime, would you? The children of Brunswick County need your help.
Communities in Schools of Brunswick County Inc. (CIS) provides an adopt-a-school and volunteer program for Brunswick County Schools to enhance the quality of education by bringing the community and its resources to children.
Through business, church, agency and civic group partnerships brokered for each individual school, CIS helps schools in their effort to provide a better education for children of Brunswick County.
SUPPLY—The entire graduating class of practical nursing (PN) students at Brunswick Community College has passed the state licensure exam. This is the first perfect pass rate since 2004 for BCC PN graduates. ee
Tanya Mace, director of practical nursing, said the dedication from the 17 PN students as well as a "strengthened curriculum" taught by the faculty contributed to a perfect pass rate.
"Those at the helm have the experience and knowledge to help the students succeed," Mace said in a press release.
BOLIVIA—The Brunswick County Board of Education's search for legal representation has brought them back to where they started.
Brunswick County Schools will open its 18th school next week. About 100 students will be a part of the first class of the 8th Grade Transition Academy on the Brunswick County Academy campus.
The idea for the Academy was one its newly named principal, Faye Lloyd, had for many years. After teaching elementary students for 16 years, she found engaging, creative ways to help at-risk students.
Twelve Brunswick County Early College High School (BCECHS) students recently participated in a full day of marine biotechnology activities at UNCW's Center for Marine Science.
Students began with a trip on the research vessel "Cape Fear," where they took water and sediment samples and trawled to sample sea life.
Students were taught to assess plankton tows for types of microscopic life and learned to identify types of phytoplankton.
CALABASH—Students in Rusty Hughes' art class have found a new niche for their creative itch.
It's the Calabash Elks Lodge, where the Brunswick Community College continuing education class recently moved from its former location at Seaside United Methodist Church in Sunset Beach.
After being notified the church could no longer provide space, students were granted a new, weekly painting place by Calabash Elks Lodge No. 2679, which is providing a meeting room free of charge.
During the summer days, students can be found learning, reading and playing at the Cedar Grove Summer Enrichment Program at Cedar Grove Missionary Baptist Church.
The program, founded in part by the Brunswick Arts Council and Brunswick Family Assistance and partnered with the church, was designed to help feed students who receive free and reduced lunch during the school year but has provided the students more than a few meals a day.
Brunswick Electric Membership Corporation's annual Bright Ideas education grant program is in full swing for 2008.
Teachers submitting applications before Aug. 28 will be entered into a drawing for a $500 Visa gift card. The drawing will be on Sept. 2 and the winning teacher will be notified on the day of the drawing. The winning teacher will also receive recognition on the Bright Ideas Web site, www.ncbrightideas.com.

FALLSBURG — The Fallsburg School District likely lost as much as $500,000 in anticipated state aid overnight because it did not file a teacher evaluation plan on time.
FALLSBURG — The Fallsburg School District likely lost as much as $500,000 in anticipated state aid overnight because it did not file a teacher evaluation plan on time.
The Sullivan County district was one of four — including New York City, which has more than 1 million students — that missed the midnight Thursday deadline for filing a plan with the state.
"While anything is possible, I do not think we will be submitting a plan before midnight," said Ivan Katz, Fallsburg superintendent. The district does not have an evaluation agreement or a ratified contract with the teachers union. The teachers' contract expired June 30.
The other districts without evaluation plans are Buffalo and North Greenbush. Out of more than 700 school districts statewide, all but the four in question had reached agreements with their unions and staff over how to evaluate their teachers and principals.
Some observers held out hope for an extension. No deal, said Gov. Andrew Cuomo.
"Please hear me — there will be no extensions or exceptions," Cuomo said Thursday. "The remaining districts and their unions have until midnight tonight to do the same or they will forfeit the increase in education aid they have been counting on, and both parties will have failed the children they serve."
Fallsburg is the only district in the mid-Hudson without an approved plan. It has an enrollment of about 1,400 students. Meanwhile, the Onteora School District managed to receive approval from the state Education Department on Thursday, just in the nick of time. According to Superintendent Phyllis McGill, $70,000 in extra state aid was at stake.
"Thank you all for your hard work during this thoughtful and arduous process," said McGill in an email to staff and administrators.
New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg says the teachers union walked away from negotiations over evaluations. At stake for the city: up to $450 million.
Bloomberg said the United Federation of Teachers "unilaterally walked away from our negotiations" at about 3 a.m. Thursday.
He said one sticking point was that the union wanted the entire agreement to sunset in June 2015. But, he said, the process of removing an ineffective teacher takes two years.
The union blamed Bloomberg for the breakdown in talks.
UFT President Michael Mulgrew said the "intransigence" of the Bloomberg administration made it impossible to reach agreement on a new teacher evaluation system.

Indianapolis signs 5th-round draft pick
May 14, 2014
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Jonathan Newsome is ready to get to work with the Colts — and now he has the contract to do it.
The Colts signed their fifth-round draft pick Wednesday, two days before rookies are scheduled to be in town for a three-day minicamp. Terms of the deal were not disclosed, but the process of signing rookies has become expedited with the slotting process under the new collective bargaining agreement.
Newsome is a 6-foot-3, 236-pound defensive end. He had 16½ sacks in two seasons at Ball State after transferring from Ohio State. Indy is hoping he will emerge as a pass-rushing complement for reigning sacks champ Robert Mathis.

The Binghamton Senators joined Instagram over the summer to be able to provide fans with behind-the-scenes photos of what goes on at the arena and beyond. Since July, BSENS_HOCKEY has gained over 200 religious followers, many of whom post their own photos using the hashtags #BSens or #BehindTheBSens.
The B-Sens return home on Saturday, November 10, after a six-game road trip, which will end against the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins on Wednesday, November 7. While the front office staff anticipates our first home game in over two weeks, we decided to share some of the best B-Sens fan photos we could find on Instagram:

text: Although it may be a bit of a simplification, on New Beginnings pianist Don Pullen sets up fairly simple structures (some of which could be grooves for Ramsey Lewis) and then, after stating the theme, tosses in playful runs that are often quite outside, essentially putting his original style from the 1960's in a slightly commercial 1980's setting. Pullen plays quite rhythmically during his more intense phrases and displays a sly sense of humor. Both bassist Gary Peacock and drummer Tony Williams get a generous amount of solo space on the trio date and they are not overshadowed by the leader's often-fanciful flights. However the set does have one strong fault: at under 28 minutes it is way too brief.
