intro: Not to be outdone by Microsoft's Surface tablet announcement last week, Google has announced that it is also throwing its hat into the tablet arena. The all-new Nexus 7 will probably be more competition for Amazon than Apple or Microsoft, but we were already quite impressed with the $200 tablet. And there was even more Google hardware this week as the company introduced the Nexus Q, a streaming media device with social capabilities. Rounding out the list, we have a couple new ultrabooks from Dell, a camcorder for you extreme sports enthusiasts, and a MacBook turned tablet. Click through for a recap of this week's coolest gadgets.
quicklist: 1 title: Google Nexus 7 Tablet text: Google's new $200 tablet is more of a Kindle Fire killer than an iPad killer. Built by Asus, the tablet has a 7-inch, HD display, an 1.3GHZ Nvidia Tegra 3 quad-core processor, 1GB of RAM, and a 1.2-megapixel front-facing camera. Unfortunately there is no back camera on the unit, but there is a slim chance of anyone buying this for its photography potential. However, the big focus of the tablet is on the new software -- Android 4.1 or Jelly Bean. The new version of Android features Google Now (a Siri-like personal assistant) and even more Google Play content, including magazines and TV shows. It starts shipping in mid-July for $199; you can pre-order now through Google's Play Store. (Google)

quicklist: 2 title: Dell XPS 14 and 15 Ultrabooks text: This week, Dell announced the expansion of its XPS laptop family with the XPS 14 and XPS 15 ultrabooks. Continuing with the nice design aesthetic of the XPS 13, both laptops boast thin, aluminum chassis and comfortable chiclet keyboards. And according to the early reviews, the trackpads have even been improved. Both laptops are available with the latest Intel Core processors and Nvidia's latest graphics, so you get more than the average ultrabook performance. Both systems can also be configured with a range of hard drive sizes. Pricing starts at $1,099 for the XPS 14 and $1,200 for the XPS 15. They are available today from Dell.com.(Dell)

quicklist: 3 title: Google Nexus Q text: And you thought we were done with Google products! Google's Nexus Q isn't only one of the coolest looking gadgets out there, but it was made entirely in the United States (not something the others on this list can claim!). The ball shaped device hooks up to your TV and runs Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean). However, this isn't your average Google TV box; you'll need a phone or tablet running Android 2.3 or higher in order to access your content. All one has to do is connect to the same WiFi signal as the Q to start sending movies, music, photos, and other media straight to the TV. Google likes to call this a "social" device, since multiple users can connect at any given time and can even add to a single playlist. Starting at $299, the Nexus Q is on the overpriced side, but the social aspect of its functionality might lure some in. (Google)
media: 16674222
quicklist: 4 title: JVC Adixxion Camcorder text: For those who are looking to get off the couch though, JVC has jumped into the action camera business with the Adixxion camcorder. This rugged little guy is everything proof (water, shock, dust, etc.) and shoots 1080p video. With built-in WiFi, the Adixxion can connect to your smartphone, so you can use it as a viewfinder. Sporting a smaller 1.5-inch screen, the Adixxion seems to be another in a long line of rugged adventure tech, but at $349.95, it might just be a perfect choice for the summer. (JVC)
media: 16674177
quicklist: 5 title: Modbook Pro Tablet text: Before there was the iPad, there was the Modbook: A MacBook transformed into a tablet by a small hardware start-up called Axiotron. That start-up fizzled out, but it's now making a comeback with the Modbook Pro. The Pro is a revamped 13-inch MacBook Pro that has been modded with a touchscreen; the company removes the keyboard, puts a touchscreen over the 13-inch screen, and then removes the screen and puts it over where the keyboard should be. It also adds in a stylus. It's one insane gadget, but, hey, where else are you going to get a tablet that runs Apple's OS X Lion? Modbook hasn't announced the pricing yet, but we can tell you this: it will cost way more than an iPad. (Modbook)

Jolt Awards: The Best Testing Tools, May 01, 2012 The Annual Award for Best Testing Products
Jolt Award For Excellence in Testing Tools
The first sentence on the Selenium website succinctly sums up what the product does: "Selenium automates the web browser. That's it." As a result, a huge ecosystem of extensions and plug-ins have been created to make Selenium the default web application testing tool found in nearly all serious web developers' toolboxes.
Selenium comes in two flavors. The Selenium IDE is a Firefox add-on that macro-records user interactions for playback and analysis. The generated scripts can be edited and replayed for further customization. The second is the more comprehensive Selenium WebDriver, a language-specific set of bindings to automate web browser interactions. The Selenium API supports C#, Java, Perl, Python, and Ruby, as well as specific testing frameworks such as Bromine, Hermes, JUnit, NUnit, RSpec, and Unnittest among others. Given the level of flexible automation that Selenium has to offer, scripting tests of Web-based apps is remarkably easy. Most developers and testers should be able to learn frequently used commands in a few hours.
Selenium can drive both desktop and mobile browsers. It even offers an Android server APK that makes on-device browser testing a snap. An iOS version is also available, but requires it a bit more work to compile into the the
RemoteWebDriver class into your iOS project.
If you tried Selenium a few years ago and thought it was a bit rough around the edges or that it lacked a feature you needed, you should do yourself a favor and check out the latest release. Selenium is a mature product with excellent documentation and support, and it benefits from more than 20 plug-ins that can perform everything from page coverage reports to taking screenshots of failed states for further analysis. Users seeking commercial Selenium support have several options, principally from the project's creator and sponsor, Sauce Labs.
All of this technology is available at no cost due to being open source. It's a high-quality package at a price that can't be beat; and for that, it was awarded this year's Jolt Award for Excellence in Testing Tools.

Ok, so I'm always self-conscious when I see a big cock. I wish I had a bigger one. I'm a virgin and don't get girls or guys because I think they will judge me. See I have a 6″ cock and I think that's small for my age. Should I get a pump or something? I don't know what to do.
I know what you should do! And it's not going out and getting yourself a pump either. Here's what you do. Instead of obsessing about the size of your unit, invest your time, energy and any cash you might be hording away to waste on a penis enlargement scheme in something that will make you a more interesting person. Because that, my friend, is what's gonna get you laid.
Here's the lowdown — throughout history, men have obsessed about the size of their cocks. And when there's magnitude of attention paid to something so trivial, you can be sure there's gonna be an entire industry poised to bilk the shit out of the willie worrisome, like you Curt. Hey, where do you suppose the term "snake oil" originated? Sheesh!
All of this unfortunate big-dick envy creates a never-ending parade of con artists tryin' to sell a remedy, of one sort or another, to cure guys, just like you, of their "shame." But, take it from Dr. Dick, the dick doctor; it's all bullshit. And some of the bullshit is really scary and dangerous bullshit.
For every little peanut out there, (and if you are reporting your size accurately, you're on the higher end of average) there is some kooky diet, ridiculous cream, bogus massage technique or worthless breathing exercise that is supposed to transform one's mini-meat into the giant economy size. And let's not forget the weights you can hang on your thang. Vacuum devices to pump up your thang. And of course the twenty-first century solution — cosmetic surgery — to put a happy face on your thang. The results are dubious if there are any results at all. And each has negative side effects, some of which are more revolting and/or dangerous than others.
Here's the last word on this — don't waste your money on any of this crap. Or better yet, send me the money, and I'll put it to good use. Here's the very best advice I can offer a guy who is unhappy with the size of his schlong…learn to love what ya got. Learn to use what ya got. And leave what ya got the hell alone.
Good luck

Here's my question. You probably have already answered this a couple of times, but here goes anyway. How important is sex in a relationship between gay men? Do you think it's ok to stay with someone even thought the sex is not good, or if it's only good for one of the partners?
You're right, I hear this question all the time, not just from gay men, but from all sorts of people.
The short answer to your query is; yes, lots of gay men (and folks of any other stripe too) stay together in healthy, loving, long-term relationships, even though the relationship (or marriage) is sexless. Most people in these relationships choose domestic tranquility over sexual tension. And sometimes the partners in these types of relationships give one another permission to pursue the sexual gratification they need and want outside the primary relationship.
That being said, there is certainly a large percentage of gay men (folks of any other stripe too) who could not, nor would they want to stay in a sexless, or one-sided relationship. And so the alternative, or satellite relationship, arrangement would not appeal to them.
To your final point about staying in a relationship when the sex is good for only one of the partners, well that's a more troublesome. This suggests to me that the dissatisfied partner is frustrated and disappointed and that's never a good foundation on which to build a relationship. My experience has been that when someone is living in one of these one-sided relationships the frustration will inevitably build to a point when all hell breaks loose. The ensuing explosion, more often than not, destroys the relationship.
I've worked with several such couples in the past. Some develop strategies for fixing the sexual problems that have come between them. These couples choose to work on building mutual sexual satisfaction into the relationship. And that can happen lots of different ways. Others couples decide that mutuality can never be achieved and so they choose to amicably end the relationship and move on.
Which kind of person are you? What kind of relationship do you have? I can scarcely say, given the limited information you share with me. I see you write from Seattle. If you want to talk about this sometime, make an appointment for a consultation. I'm sure I can make room for you. And anyone else in a similar predicament, regardless of where you live, my services are available to you too through Skype or by phone. Check out the Therapy Available tab in the header. It's under the About Dr Dick tab.
Good luck

Member Questions
If you breastfed, how long did you keep it up after going back to work? Did your workplace have a dedicated room to pump?"
Asked by Work It, Mom! Team on 2nd January 2008 | 26 replies
26 replies so far...
I returned to work when my son was 10 weeks old. I pumped 3x a day at work to keep him excusively breastfed until he was 7 months. After that, I started back up with graduate school classes, an internship, and continued to work -- so I had to reduce the # of times I could pump and he started getting some formula during the day to supplement. He is now just over 8 months, and he nurses when we are together and gets breastmilk and formula during the weekdays.
I do have a dedicated pumping room in my building, so I am very fortunate to have flexibility to pump whenever I can (when I'm at work). At my internship site, there is a room that works for pumping, but it's not always free and my schedule is usually very full.

With my first, I pumped at the office until he was 14 months old and I had supply issues. I work as a PM for a general contractor. I pumped so many times in my truck because I never had a permanent office. On a couple projects, I would be able to find a little-used ADA restroom where I laid out a large changing pad on the counter that I used as my "clean surface" to put my pump and pumping supplies. The changing pad was absolutely necessary because I never knew where I was going to pump and it left me with peace of mind.
After I stopped pumping at work, I just nursed him morning and night until he was ready to wean finally when he was close to 3 yo. I felt so much more motivated back then.
My second son is now 9 1/2 months and I'm finding it harder and hard to be motivated to pump. I have a very understanding and willing superintendent who honors my "Mommy Time" as he calls it. He leaves our office to walk the jobsite while I pump. I couldn't ask for a better work partner. I don't know why I'm not motivated to keep it going. I'm not having production problems and nursing has gone super smooth. I want to hang in there at least a few more months. I just need some encouragement!

I took 6 weeks maternity leave and then continued to pump at work until baby was 5 months old. I had wanted to breastfeed for longer, but between my milk drying up, baby preferring the bottle to the breast, and the stress of trying to pump at work, I finally just gave up. I think I still have guilt about not breastfeeding for longer, but it was the right thing to do at the time. (My work did have a nice set up for pumping and a semi-dedicated room, but it was still very difficult.)

I returned to work full time when my daughter was 9 weeks old, and continued to pump untill she turned 1 year old. I still breastfeed her in the morning and night, then all day on the weekends.
I pumped in my car twice a day, there was no other place to pump. I have pumped in 10 degree weather and 90 degree weather. I work at a ski resort, and many times would have to walk a mile just to get to the car. This process was very exhausting, but I was bound and determined to give my baby the best possable start in life. I would do anything for my child! There is no excuse as to why other mothers do not breast feed.

I returned to work full-time at 12 weeks and at 13 months I am still pumping and breastfeeding my son. It hasn't always been easy, but it has been so rewarding.
When I first came back to work, the only place I could pump was in a public restroom with an extension cord running into the closest stall from the nearest outlet. It was not fun, but I would close my eyes and try to tune out everything else by thinking of my adorable little boy. Not long thereafter, our office was expanded and an extra office (with a door that locks) became my pumping room. I pump twice a day and my son takes a bottle of my pumped milk before his morning and afternoon naps. I nurse him right before taking him to daycare and as soon as I get home. I don't have a set date for when I plan to stop, but in the next few months I'll probably cut back to one pumping session per day (I started at three), then stop pumping and nurse only in the morning and at night before letting the little guy decide when he wants to wean.
I had to laugh at Uhura's comment below about quitting breastfeeding when she saw a tooth. I can relate! My son has seven teeth now and there are still days when I worry if he's going to bite my nipple off, but for the most part he understands that if he bites, he doesn't get any more milk. We have an uneasy truce. :)

My story is similar to Boineau's in terms of how long and how often I pumped. The university I worked at had one lactation room with two curtained off stalls, which was so popular they opened another one around the time I stopped. They didn't have a shared pump but DUH! that would make so much sense. I bought two pumps so I wouldn't have to lug it around. I stopped pumping around 8 months when she fully reverse-cycled and stopped taking a bottle a daycare (and was still nursing at home 4-5x with co-sleeping). We're still nursing!

Like kerflop I work at home and my son weaned himself at about 26 months. I started working from home soon after he was born.
Flag as inappropriate Posted by Gayatri on 13th January 2008
Oh, and there wasn't a designated room, but we had this nice "shower room" that had a bench, an outlet, and a lock on the door, it worked perfectly.

After returning to work at 12 weeks, I continued to pump and breastfeed at night until my daughter was 9 months old, then my milk dried up, or I would have gone longer.
Flag as inappropriate Posted by mommy2kiera on 11th January 2008
I took off 6mths for maternity leave and pumped for an additional 2. I had my own office, and I kep the milk in the office fridge everyday, but it was a lot of work to clean my pump accessories. I ran into men in the office all of the time who would see me cleaning my stuff and quickly run the other way. It was pretty funny.
Flag as inappropriate Posted by Karen on 11th January 2008
I continued to breastfeed both of my daughters for 12 months after returning to work. Pumping at work sucked because I'd have to schedule it around classes and spend my short breaks pumping. There wasn't a dedicated room but there was a comfortable meeting room with a locking door that I used.
It worked fine and I'm glad I made the effort.
Flag as inappropriate Posted by Caitlin Mowbray on 10th January 2008
I breastfed all 3 of my kids to various extents while working full-time. For my oldest, I pumped for 3 months until she was 6 months old. My second daughter was exclusively breastfed until she reached 11 months old and I pumped for her until my milk supply went down so much that we had to add a formula feeding (at 11 months). With my youngest, I was home with her until she was 6 months old and then when I returned to working full-time, I pumped for another 3 months, while having supply issues. None of my workplaces supplied a private lactation room - I've pumped in restroom lounges, conference rooms and empty offices.

Special Price $79.99
Portable herbal vaporizers are compact, handheld units that enable "on-the-go" consumption of dry herb and wax concentrates. These devices are growing ever more popular as a way to vape in a discreet, convenient manner. But there's more to them than portability. They harness great power inside their stealthy-sized frames with high capacity batteries, advanced heating systems, and temperature control capabilities. The surprisingly feature-rich nature of these compact units makes them one of the most popular types of handheld vapes.
For those who want a portable aromatherapy device, MONQ has created stylish, holistic personal oil diffusers. Aiming to restore users depleted terpene (organic hydrocarbons found in nature) levels, terpenes have been found to have an affect on mental and physical health, mainly boosting the users mood while lowering their stress level. Based around the principles of "forest bathing", MONQ aims to simulate 'bathing' all of your senses in the experience of being in nature.
Visit our resource page to find out why vaporizers are better than smoking.
With high demand for better, faster units, manufacturers have focused their efforts on perfecting the pocket vape. As a result, these devices grow more advanced all the time. Recently the introduction of mobile app controls, convection heating systems, precision temperature control, and sleeker, more solid designs have elevated these units to a new level of sophistication. Models like the PAX 3, DaVinci IQ, and Firefly 2 are currently at the forefront of the industry, featuring cutting edge controls, heating systems and designs.
In short, handheld vapes are for those who want portability with no shortage of vapor quality.
When looking for a new vaporizer, it's important to note that handheld units offer a different experience from desktop and pen-style devices. A portable unit strikes a balance between great vapor production and portability, while desktop and pen devices focus mostly on vapor quality and compactness, respectively.
Portable herbal vaporizers range in size, but are generally pocket-friendly. Units like DaVinci MIQRO are ultra-compact and easy to carry with you anywhere. While desktop units must be plugged into a power source during use, making them extra powerful, handheld devices feature a rechargeable, often replaceable battery that takes only a couple hours to replenish. This makes them similar to the vape pen, a smaller, extra compact device. The average handheld unit can offer hours of continuous vaping on a full charge, and most devices are charged via USB, making it easier to power up from a variety of power sources at a faster rate. The portable nature of these devices makes them popular with commuters. You can take a hit of smooth, delicious vapor, pocket the device, and go about your day. But they are also ideal for home use, as they are easy to use, clean, and carry around the house, but still offer excellent vapor production.
With a compact size, the handheld vape is a discreet way to enjoy dry herb. Many of these devices can be concealed in your hand during use, and carried in your pocket or bag with no hassle. Some super compact portable vaporizers like the Magic Flight Launch Box are incredibly pocket-friendly while still delivering big, tasty clouds. Bluetooth-enabled devices also allow you to choose your temperatures via smartphone so you can keep the unit in your pocket until you have an opportunity to vape discreetly. Portable units enable you to enjoy dry herb or wax concentrates outdoors without drawing attention to your sessions.
Don't let the small size fool you. These compact units pack power with high capacity batteries and efficient heating systems. While super slender vape pens have little room for advanced heating technology, portable units are just big enough to incorporate high-powered heating elements, isolated air paths, spacious chambers, and more. Portable vaporizers can even feature all-glass vapor paths that preserve the natural flavor, aromas, and benefits of dry herb while cooling each hit as it travels toward your palette.
There are two main heating styles: Conduction and Convection. Both offer their own unique advantages. Your choice of heating style may depend on your preferences for cloud size, density, purity, and flavor. Most portable vaporizers feature conduction heating, in which herb is heated by the hot walls of the chamber, while others like the Firefly 2 offer convection systems that thoroughly and evenly vaporize materials with hot air. Hybrid units feature both heating styles for a more well-rounded vapor profile.
Portable vapes with conduction systems heat materials faster. They also tend to be more affordable. Because the herb that's in contact with the heating element will grow hotter faster than the rest of the load, we recommend stirring the bowl in-between hits.
Convection vaporizers send hot air flowing through the chamber to heat the bowl evenly and thoroughly. This heating style minimizes combustion to prevent smoky tastes and harshness while maximizing flavor, aroma, and medicinal benefits.
Hybrid conduction/convection units utilize both styles to offer the best of both worlds. These devices heat fast using conduction chambers while still delivering smoother, flavor-rich vapor with convection heating.
Most handheld vapes either feature preset temperatures--a set of three to five temps to choose from--or precision temp control, which enables you to pinpoint an exact temperature down to the degree. Both heating styles have their own perks, and choosing the right one for you depends on your lifestyle and preferences.
Portable units that offer preset temps generally feature a single button control. For this reason they are technically easier to use than precision temp controlled units. Users simply click the button to power up and toggle temperature. Generally, five clicks powers the unit on, three clicks cycles to the next temp setting. Presets are usually optimized for the most popular vapor profiles. Lower temps create smaller, more flavorful sips, while the higher settings create bigger, more robust clouds. Portable units with preset temperatures are ideal for those who want to take quick hits on-the-fly without fiddling with the controls. But they lack the ability to zero in on a precise temperature that is ideal for your vaping style, dry herb strain, or waxy oil concentrate.
Precision temperature control allows you to choose down to the degree the best temp for your vaping style. These units usually feature "up" and "down" buttons for toggling through a wide range of heat settings. With more temperature options, users can explore different vapor profiles and customize their sessions based on their preference for flavor, size, and density. These devices also enable you to hone in on the most effective temperature for unlocking active compounds from specific strains of dry herb or concentrates. Most precision temperature vaporizers feature LED displays so you can choose temperature and monitor the progress of your heating.
There's more to handheld units than the hits they deliver. A device may look great and produce excellent vapor production, but it also needs to meet other requirements you might have. When choosing the best portable vaporizer, you want to consider the following factors:
Most portable units are designed for dry herb consumption, but some units like the Vivant Dabox are meant for waxy oil concentrates. Whether you prefer to vape herb or wax, make sure the unit you purchase is compatible. You can use our Vaporizer Buyer's Guide to find your ideal unit based on Type and Materials.
The price of most handheld units is a reflection of their quality. Investing in a pricier one will pay off. You'll get higher grade materials, better vapor quality, and more features. That said, there are plenty of cheap portable vaporizers that offer quality at a reasonable price. Notable examples include the Pulsar APX and the Atmos Jump.
Battery strength--usually measured in milliamps (mAh)--varies among handheld vaporizers. You want to find a battery that suits your needs. If you're always on your feet with no time to charge, you want a higher capacity battery with a longer life, bearing in mind that larger batteries often take longer to charge. If you want a shorter charge time, go with a smaller capacity battery. The strength of a battery can also dictate its temperature range, as stronger batteries can reach higher temps faster.
A great way to assess the value of a portable vaporizer is looking at its warranty. Often times, the longer the unit's warranty, the more faith the manufacturer has in its quality. KandyPens, for example, guarantees a lifetime warranty on its batteries, while PAX products feature an impressive 10 year warranty. Finding a portable vape with a warranty also protects your investment in the event of damages, although warranties vary between devices.
Materials matter. Heating chambers made of ceramic are more efficient at vaporizing dry herb without causing combustion. Glass mouthpieces preserve the natural flavors of vapor while cooling each hit. Make sure to research the materials used in the chamber, vapor path and mouthpiece of a portable vaporizer.
Inhale slowly and lightly to prevent herb from being sucked up into the mouthpiece, unwanted cooling of the chamber, and weak hits.
Cleaning your device will ensure longer life and better performance. We feature a variety of cleaning tools and supplies in our warehouse.
When loading your handheld vape, grind your dry herb finely and pack the chamber tightly for optimal vapor production.
Not a big fan of vaping outdoors? You might want to settle for a desktop vaporizer instead. You'll lose the portability since desktop units need plug-in power sources, but you'll get better vapor production in return.

Te'o practices with Chargers vets for 1st time, is kept away from media
SAN DIEGO – Manti Te'o has gone through his first practice with San Diego Chargers veterans, and by all accounts he didn't embarrass himself.
He was matched up against tight end Antonio Gates a few times, which quarterback Philip Rivers calls "a quick welcome, Day 1."
Te'o and other Chargers went through the first day of organized team activities, which are practices in helmets, jerseys and shorts, but no pads.
Te'o, the linebacker from Notre Dame, was picked by the Chargers in the second round after slipping out of the opening round in part because of a poor performance in the national championship game against Alabama.
He also was part of a girlfriend hoax that drew national headlines.
The team pulled an end run and kept Te'o away from a large media contingent Monday.

Roundtable sharing and NewYork Research will be lead by Shirley Becker
16 April. Time 6 to 7:50 p m at the Lemon Grove Library.
Shirley will be sharing her knowledge of many years research in New York, being born there.
New York is a difficult state to locate information.
Having done research there for more than 20 years, it appears to be a very difficult state to
Locate data. The court systems are different also.
Having used usgenweb.org and familysearch.org as my main sources. Having also used
Rootsweb for surnames and place sources.
In recent years, worked with NEHGS and New York Archives.
Shirley's ability to explain towns, etc is excellent.
Remembering counties boundaries changed many times and some very
Early records are in England and maybe France.
Lots of luck and if you have success we would love to know about it.

Anyone got a supplier of reasonably priced used/new cornies?
I managed to destroy one of mine by leaving beer line cleaner in it too long.
robwalker wrote:Whoops! Thehomebrewcompany are very cheap if you don't mind cleaning them out. Otherwise try keg kingdom, they don't seem competitive but everything is well priced
Kev888 wrote:New genuine AEB brand cornies are available for around £80 from the malt miller. Quite a bit £more than the used ones obviously, but decades less wear and tear than many used ones too if the budget stretches.
orlando wrote:If you're prepared to stretch to that I would go for a 23 litre cornie as this is closer to a typical batch.

The UW Colleges Study Abroad website lists all upcoming programs, application requirements, costs, and other information you will need to participate.
Studying and traveling in a different country and culture can offer an educational experience beyond anything you've known before! It allows you the opportunity to challenge yourself and your abilities to adapt and learn. You will view the world through a new perspective, perhaps causing you to question some of what you held true before. You may find that you learn as much about your own country while studying abroad as you do about your host country.
You can build or increase your fluency in a foreign language through some study abroad experiences and you can complete degree credits in general studies, pre-requisites for your major or elective areas. And, besides the personal benefits, the experience can add dramatic value to your resume for future employers or schools.
Some UW Colleges study abroad travel opportunities are one to three weeks in duration and occur between semesters or during summer. They are often preceded by a campus-based or asynchronous course of instruction. You may typically earn anywhere from zero to three degree credits for a course. These courses are intensive learning experiences supervised by faculty members.
Other UW Colleges study abroad opportunities last for an entire semester and students can earn up to 12 or more credits during the experience. These study experiences are usually supervised by faculty from the host institution.
Financial aid and scholarships are available for many study abroad programs. Students who have been accepted and approved for financial aid for the academic year in which the study abroad occurs may wish to have their aid re-evaluated based on the costs of study abroad. Partial scholarships may be available for students who demonstrate financial need according to FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) guidelines.

Mighty Summit Giveaway: Congratulations to Our Winners!
Last week, Laura Mayes and I announced the Mighty Summit giveaway, offering two lucky commenters the incredible gifts — Tieks! Epiphanie and Lands' End Bags! Jewelry! Life-changing books! — enjoyed by Mighty Summit attendees earlier this month.
The results are in, and congratulations to our number 1357, Ursula! (Life List goal: Wear a fresh-picked Hibiscus flower in my hair, in Hawaii.) Laura announced our other winner on her Blog con Queso earlier today.
Congratulations you two, and thank you to all who participated!

Free Stuff! Mighty Summit Gift Giveaway
When we were pulling together gifts for the Mighty Summit, we set a few aside to give away.
If you'd like to enter to win one, please share an item from your Life List in the comments below. One winner will be chosen from comments on this site, the other from Mighty Summit co-founder Laura Mayes's Blog Con Queso.
Now for the fine print: Please only leave one comment on each site, because it's the nice thing to do, and also because multiple entries will be disqualified. I'll use random.org to select the winner, and I'll announce who won at the top of this post and in a separate post next Wednesday. You have to live in the United States or Canada to enter, because holy holy the shipping is ludicrous if you don't. Fingers crossed for you.
Update: We have two winners, announced here and here. Thank you to all who participated!
Here's what's up for grabs:
1. Ephiphanie Camera Bag by Maile Wilson (shown in top and side views)
These compartmentalized camera totes were designed by Summit photographer Maile Wilson, who used to wrap her DSLR in a towel and shove it in her purse. Sound familiar? Contest winners can choose form any of the designs and colors shown on the site. So you should probably get a yellow one.
2. Chevron Necklace by Feisty Elle
This delicate wood necklace is by San Francisco designer Leslie Yang of Feisty Elle, who makes light easy pieces that make you look pulled together in jeans and a T-shirt. We love this necklace because it resembles an arrow, which is a symbol of courage.
3. Tieks by Gavrieli
Gah! These are my favorite things. Tieks are beautifully made, non-skid flats that fold up to fit in your purse. Once you try them on, they'll never leave your feet, and they stand up to years of daily wear. Contest winner can choose among the rainbow of fruit flavors available on the Tieks website.
4. Scarf by Mixed Bag Design
These soft scarves go with everything, and the Mixed Bag website allows you to hold fundraisers for causes close to your heart.
5. Bliss Beauty Soaps and Scrubs
In blood orange and white pepper. Do not eat them.
6. The Quintet Necklace by Lemonade Handmade
Another favorite thing that makes me sigh. Every year, Mighty Summit attendees make a list of five things they hope to accomplish in the coming year. This delicate, simple necklace symbolizes those goals. Tiny brass rings just within reach.
7. Daring Greatly, by Brené Brown
A book that encourages you to go be brave. We are pro bravery around here.
8. Let's Pretend This Never Happened, by Jenny Lawson
Mighty Summit alum Jenny Lawson, a.k.a. The Bloggess, wrote this movingly funny book, which includes a chapter on the very first Mighty Summit, and photos of me slaughtering the author with a meat cleaver.
9. Happier at Home by Gretchen Rubin
Summit alum Gretchen Rubin is once again on the New York Times Bestseller list with her sequel to the Happiness Project, a tome about a year of seeking happiness at home.
10. Oh Happy Day Piñata
Jordan Ferney, the genius behind the website Oh Happy Day, made these teeny eeny piñatas by hand, and they are perfect. You'll wish you had two so you could pit them against each other.
11. Lands End Canvas Tote
These extra-large natural zip-top tote bags by Lands End are awesome for trips to the pool or beach, picnics, and summering on your fleet of yachts.
12. Daring Greatly Action Book by Behance
Get started on your Life List goals! This notebook is designed to help you plan visually, too.
Sensible Shoes
I just ordered some flats, because I've walked holes in all my everyday shoes. The ones above are Kimchi Blue Asymmetrical Skimmers. They're cheap, so I assume they will hurt me, but I'm taking a chance because of the cuteness.
I also ordered a pair of Tieks, which were recommended to me as the ultimate travel shoe by someone on Facebook (was it you, Lisa Kohara?). Because I am a miser when it comes to clothes, this is the most I've ever spent on a pair of shoes, but they look perfect for traveling. If they last, I may decide to always own a pair forever and ever amen. If they don't last, I'm going to be pissed. *(Update: My Tieks arrived, and they are genius. Very solid, and compact, and great quality. Highly recommended. I could not be more excited to have found them.)
Have any sensible shoe favorites I should know about? Spill.

I think. Or maybe it's just a bunch of Dance Mission Theater folks being awesome:
Billy L., who captured this on video, says:
Stumbled upon this last night in Osage Alley as I was walking to the Attic. Half expected Keenen Ivory Wayans to walk out at the end. Pretty sure they're from the Dance Mission Theater next door.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - General Keith Alexander, the director of the U.S. National Security Agency, said on Tuesday that the NSA's data gathering programs had prevented potential terrorist attacks more than 50 times since September 11, 2001.
"In recent years these programs, together with other intelligence, have protected the U.S. and our allies from terrorist threats across the globe to include helping prevent ... potential terrorist events over 50 times since 9/11," he said in testimony to the U.S. House of Representatives intelligence committee.
Alexander said the intelligence agencies would give documents about those cases to the committee in a classified setting on Wednesday for its review and that he would discuss two thwarted plots during his testimony on Tuesday.
