The proposal
Community colleges would get the biggest boost -- $151 million more under the revised budget, including "backfill" funds for this fiscal year to make up for lower-than-expected income from student fees and property taxes, according to the governor's budget summary. The community colleges' new budget also includes $10 million to train 1,800 additional nurses. UC's allocation would rise $19.6 million, and CSU would get an additional $381,000. A new feature of the revised budget is $1 million for UC and CSU for the first phase of a new state initiative to train more math and science teachers.
The bottom line
The revision retains the promised restoration of higher-education funding offered in the January budget, which fulfilled the 2004 Higher Education Compact, in which the governor promised UC and CSU guaranteed funding increases from 2005 to 2011 in exchange for significant cuts in current 2004- 05 fiscal year.
The politics
Unlike budget battles in past years, higher education officials voiced support for the spending plan. Community Colleges Chancellor Marshall Drummond thanked the governor, especially for his "commitment to solve the critical nursing shortage and his renewed commitment to equalize funding for community college districts." UC Vice President Larry Hershman said university officials are "very pleased that the May revision continues to support the compact." CSU Chancellor Charles Reed also expressed appreciation for the governor's continued support for the compact and the new math and science program..
"Overall, there is very positive progress relative to the governor's January proposal."

The last episode of season two of the original Star Trek Series, entitled Assignment Earth (air date March 29, 1968) was intended as not only an episode of the regular Star Trek series but also as a backdoor pilot for a new series Gene Roddenberry hoped to produce for the network. Ultimately, it wasn't picked up and the Gary Seven character (a futuristic "James Bond" with a suspiciously familiar sonic screwdriver-like device… the Doctor Who sonic screwdriver was introduced to UK viewers just a scant 13 days before Assignment Earth aired) and his "cat" Isis were never heard from again… until a quarter century later in DC's Star Trek comic series.
In issue #49, Gary Seven and Isis made their comic debut, returning to aid the crew of the Starship Enterprise once again as the Federation dangerously considers the idea of employing protomatter weapons. Star Trek #50 concluded the story began in issue #49 (written by Howard Weinstein, with pencils by Rod Whigham and inks by Arne Starr and Carlos Garzon) and was a giant-sized anniversary issue and featured the main portion and conclusion of the story. Gary Seven and Isis would go on to appear in other Star Trek comics (most notably the IDW John Byrne series), in Star Trek novels, and in fan fiction. The page, which features Kirk and Spock on the bridge as well as a emergency scene in Main Engineering, measures approximately 11 by 17 inches, is in excellent condition and will be shipped with the utmost care. It is signed by Whigham and Starr.

What the Cancer zodiac sign is all about:
Of the 12 Zodiac signs, Cancer is the fourth zodiac sign, which is primarily at the start of the summer season from June 21 to July 22. The Crab is known to be very insecure, unpredictable, indecisive and temperamental. They intensely fear rejection by their loved ones and are prone to get hurt easily. The otherwise obstinate, sympathetic, loyal and strong Crabs are vulnerable in many ways. The fact that they are rather emotional and hypersensitive only adds to their vulnerability. Some Cancer born individuals are also quite moody, pessimists and overly suspicious. What is remarkable about the Crabs is that they are extremely intuitive and imaginative.
Symbol: Crab
Ruling Planet: Moon – astronomical body of emotions and moods
Body Part: Stomach, Chest, Breast, Alimentary canal.
Element: Water
Good Days: Tenacity, Loyalty, Romantic, Sympathetic, Persuasive, Intuitive, Sensitive, Patient, Helpful, Compassionate, Nurturing, Creative
Bad Days: Temperamental, Pessimist, Suspiciousness, Insecure, Wavering emotions, Isolated, Uncommunicative, Gossipy, Overly Competitive, Hypersensitive
Favorite Things: Cooking Gourmet meals, Gardening, Interior Decoration, Traveling, Visiting Museums, Reading, Collecting Antiques, Hosting Parties,
What they Hate: Cruelty, Being Alone, Financial Insecurity, Being Rushed, Public Speaking, Frozen Dinners, Tacky Clothes,
Secret wish: To take care of family and friends

Where You'll Find Them: Painting, Music, Collecting Antiques, listening to live music bands, cooking
Keywords: Home, Sensitive, Emotional, Nurturing, Moodiness, Femininity, Children, Family,
Cancer: The Crab
The Crab, with its vulnerability inside an opaque, impenetrable outer shell, symbolizes the zodiac sign Cancer. Cancer inherits the Crab's gripping nature and also clings to comforts of life —from pets to beloved family members and job security. Change is something that the Cancer is afraid of and hence it believes in deep-rooted relationships. Cancerians demonstrate contradictory qualities like the Crab – They can come out of their shell and fight but they can also hide in their shells in the depths of the ocean. In a Cancerian association, we feel nostalgic and sentimental. They tend to live in the past and they hold grudges close to their heart. A Cancer-born can forgive, but never forget. The positive traits of Cancer energy are sensitive, sympathetic, compassionate, domestic, caretaking, feminine, loving, intuitive, imaginative, cautious, protective, maternal, creative and romantic. Some of the negative Cancer traits can be shrewd, gossipy, isolated, pessimist, overly competitive hypersensitive, and passive-aggressive,. Cancer people generally tend to overrule intellect and logic with emotions and intuition. They are also known to be moody, touchy, over-emotional, clingy, and sometimes exhibit the tendency to flounder in self-pity.
Cancer Element: Water
Cancer, symbolized by the Crab, comes from the Water element. Being the first water sign of the zodiac, they are oblivious to the fact that their emotional quotient and their flowing creative juices come from the flowing water principle. Cancer is an intense and passionate lover, but it does not know how to cope up with heartbreak. Cancer can be extraordinarily generous at times and they are always there for their friends. They live in the past; they are extremely sentimental and can be yearning for the past. Cancer craves for deeper and long-lasting relationships. Cancer is also a strong home person – it likes to build a comfortable home that they can call their own. They are very family oriented people and make sure that people around them are happy and content.
Cancer Ruling Planet: The Moon
The moon is the Earth's closest astronomical body —and it is a known fact that the Moon's energy impinges on our moods majorly. The Moon influences the Cancer mood a lot, making it moody, sentimental, craving for relationships and seldom thinking about past. With the ever-changing Lunar tides the Cancer can experience crazy mood swings. In fact, most cancer people are also very shy and take time to open up to new people.
Cancer: A Cardinal Sign
Cancer is part of the Cardinal clan. These signs start every season—Aries is the first spring, Cancer begins the summer, Libra starts fall season and Capricorn kicks off winters. They are the "ideators" and leaders of the zodiac. Originality is what one can expect from a Cancerian.
Cancer People: What They're Like
Cancer people are grounded and homely; they love to be in the space that belongs to them and they can call their own. Many Cancers are passionate about food and also love to cook. They enjoy people's company and often like to throw parties and invite friends and family over for a get-together. Their maternal and caring instincts facilitate them to bond with kids very quickly – Cancers are amazing parents and they also enjoy keeping pets. If you need advice, a suggestion, or just a shoulder to cry on, the Cancer friend is always there for you, standing rock solid, during your testing times. But beware; they expect that the favor is returned soon enough. When it comes to a relationship, Cancer can be extremely compassionate and comforting; but one has to be careful to not let this compassion turn into an impulsive dependency. Else setting yourself free from the Cancer claws will be a next to impossible task. Make sure you set healthy boundaries much before claustrophobia strikes in.
Famous Cancer People & Celebrities:
Some of the Famous International Celebrities who are Cancer born are: Tom Cruise, Meryl Streep, Selena Gomez, Ariana Grande, Bimal Roy, Ernest Hemingway, Kourtney Kardashian, George W. Bush, Edmund Hillary, Pamela Anderson, Khloe Kardashian, Courtney Love, Dalai Lama, Emily Bronte, Jaden Smith, Selena Gomez, Vin Diesel, Gerald R. Ford, Giorgio Armani, Carlos Santana, Oscar de la Renta, John Quincy Adams, Calvin Coolidge, Pablo Neruda, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Franz Kafka, Vera Wang, OJ Simpson, Robin Williams, George Michael, Priyanka Chopra, Katrina Kaif, Naseeruddin Shah, Revathi, Karisma Kapoor, Raj Babbar, Nelson Mandela, Lana Del Ray, Lindsay Lohan, Gisele Bundchen, Li'l Kim, Khloe Kardashian and Jessica Simpson.
To summarize about the Cancer zodiac, they are extremely emotional, sensitive and caring people with deep family connects with whom maintaining healthy human relationships are of utmost priority. Because of their docile and vulnerable nature in dealing with their emotions, they get hurt very easily. They long for a trustworthy, loving partner and if they find one, they shower all their love and compassion on him. Clearly, people like these are wanted and respected in today's world where relationships have taken backstage.

Investigator Commentary on the MAINTAIN study by Dr. Mathias Rummel
At the 2017 ASH Annual Meeting, New Evidence spoke with Dr. Mathias Rummel, Head of the Department of Hematology at the Clinic for Hematology and Medical Oncology at the Justus-Liebig University Hospital, Giessen, Germany, about the results of the MAINTAIN study assessing rituximab maintenance after induction with bendamustine and rituximab (BR).
New Evidence: Please describe the design of the MAINTAIN study. What was the rationale for the two versus four years of rituximab maintenance?
Dr. Rummel: The MAINTAIN study aimed to assess the value of maintenance with rituximab following induction treatment with BR.1 In 2008, when the study was started, there were no data available on whether BR followed by maintenance would benefit patients with indolent lymphomas. At the same time, the medical community had expectations that maintenance would improve progression-free survival (PFS) in these patients. The hope was that with rituximab maintenance, we could achieve high efficacy and maybe go as far as cure the disease.
After a long debate among participating physicians, we decided to investigate the outcomes of two years versus four years of rituximab maintenance following induction with BR. Patients were randomized after BR induction and two years of rituximab maintenance to two more years of maintenance (four-year arm) or no more treatment (two-year arm).
New Evidence: Please summarize and comment on the efficacy results of the MAINTAIN study.
Dr. Rummel: The primary objective of the MAINTAIN study was the comparison of PFS between two and four years of rituximab maintenance in patients with follicular lymphoma (FL). The results presented at ASH 2017 demonstrated benefit with four-year maintenance; however, with a hazard ratio of 0.73 (one-sided; p = 0.01), this difference was not statistically significant which was likely due to a smaller number of observed events than was originally planned.
The other objective of the study was to compare the results historically to the StiL NHL 1 trial. For this comparison we included all patients from the MAINTAIN study, even those who had not responded and those who had stopped early in the maintenance phase due to toxicities or progression. In order to compare only patients who had received two years of maintenance, we censored the patients from the four-year maintenance arm at the time of randomization. The results were clearly in favour of maintenance after induction with BR. This time the difference was statistically significant (p = 0.007). Even when considering the limitations of a cross-study comparison, it was clear that maintenance after BR prolongs PFS.
New Evidence: What is the most important endpoint in this patient population?
Dr. Rummel: There is always a debate on what is the most important endpoint for these patients. Many of my colleagues believe that maintenance is very beneficial following BR, leading to improved PFS. On the other hand, other physicians interpret the results as showing no benefit with maintenance, since the overall survival (OS) was not improved. Therefore, the answer clearly depends on the interpretation of each physician, with some choosing PFS and some choosing OS as their most important endpoint.
New Evidence: Please comment on the safety results with rituximab maintenance for two versus four years.
Dr. Rummel: Importantly, as reported during the presentation, the toxicity of rituximab maintenance was not as high as some physicians had originally speculated. In my opinion, the lower-than-expected toxicity observed in MAINTAIN was due to a very meaningful clinical management of the patients. More specifically, all patients who were likely to not tolerate maintenance well (for example, due to neutropenia, severe infections, or progression) were excluded earlier in the study, before randomization to an additional two years of maintenance or observation. Given that patients were not yet randomized during the first two years of rituximab maintenance, physicians felt a high degree of freedom to stop treatment early, which is good practice as they are able to prevent potentially severe complications from occurring. Interestingly, patient decision also played a big part in patients dropping out of the study, with those who felt fatigued withdrawing their informed consent (15% of the 261 patients who were not randomized).
In general, it is a good idea to start maintenance for all patients. Most of my real-world patients feel strong enough, experience no side effects, and prefer to continue with maintenance because they believe that it provides them with added benefit. However, for those patients who experience adverse events as well as a decline in quality of life, or are not motivated to continue maintenance, there is no risk in stopping maintenance early to prevent severe complications.
New Evidence: How do the results from this subgroup analysis of FL patients compare to the previously reported results of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) in the MAINTAIN study?
Dr. Rummel: The trial presented at ASCO 2016 was a phase II comparison between two years maintenance versus no maintenance in patients with MCL.2 It is difficult to compare the results from these two subgroup analyses of MCL patients and FL patients in the StiL NHL 7-2008 MAINTAIN trial. Firstly, the aim of the trial presented at ASCO for patients with MCL was to compare two years of rituximab maintenance versus no maintenance in patients with MCL, whereas the trial presented at ASH for patients with FL directly compared BR plus two years versus four years of rituximab maintenance. Secondly, as the incidence of MCL is lower than FL, we usually enroll fewer patients in these trials which decreases the statistical power. This was the case for this phase II subanalysis of the MCL patients. Lastly, MCL and FL are different diseases and as a result we cannot extrapolate that maintenance with rituximab is good for all indolent lymphomas.
New Evidence: Do you think the superior PFS with four-year rituximab maintenance warrants a change in the standard of care for patients in this setting?
Dr. Rummel: Absolutely not. There was a clear trend of benefit with four years of maintenance, but the difference was not statistically significant. In my opinion, if a patient can tolerate two years of maintenance, then it is good enough. Alternatively, some patients and some physicians believe that if they continue maintenance for longer than two years they may achieve better results. Ultimately, it is good to see that the PFS curves for both two-year and four-year maintenance ran very well.
New Evidence: Where do you see the treatment of FL heading in the future? What key unmet needs remain for the management of these patients?
Dr. Rummel: One of the main unmet needs is to identify the patients with FL who will not respond well to treatment with chemoimmunotherapy. Ideally, we would like to have a method of identifying these patients before starting treatment. Analyzing the progression of disease after 24 months and recognizing that a patient has an early relapse is not very helpful, as physicians know that these patients will not have a good prognosis and outcome in the future.
Our group has started to implement next-generation sequencing, liquid biopsies, and cell-free tumour DNA analysis into our practice. Through these advanced methods, we can hopefully identify high-risk populations which will not benefit from BR. Otherwise, BR, with or without maintenance, is still an excellent treatment with a good long-term outcome. This is likely to remain the treatment of choice in the next few years. While there is space for improvement, none of the new compounds that are currently being tested in MCL, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and so on (i.e., ibrutinib and venetoclax) are showing convincing activity in FL. Furthermore, other studies presented at ASH 2017 demonstrated that the addition of compounds like bortezomib and lenalidomide to BR led to increased toxicities, but not improved efficacy, once again outlining BR alone as an excellent treatment for patients with FL.
New Evidence: In which patients would you recommend rituximab maintenance following induction with bendamustine and rituximab?
Dr. Rummel: When I do not have a protocol for patients with lymphoma, I feel absolutely confident to put patients on BR, possibly without maintenance. Patients have excellent outcomes with BR alone and if they relapse, they can be retreated. The PRIMA study demonstrated that while patients undergoing maintenance with rituximab after R-CHOP have better disease control, overall survival was not improved.3 From the perspective of a patient, who wants to live as long as possible and with a good quality of life, I do not believe that they would need the maintenance, because excellent salvage regimens are available. However, if a patient wants to have good disease control and the longest treatment-free interval, and they understand the data behind it, then maintenance with rituximab is a good option. Otherwise, BR alone is a good enough regimen with excellent outcomes..

Affected entities: Entities potentially affected by this action are persons who manufacture, process or import, use, distribute, or dispose of one or more specified chemical substances. Title: TSCA Section 4 Test Rules, Consent Orders, Test Rule Exemptions, and Voluntary Data Submission. ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 1139.08, OMB Control No. 2070-0033. ICR status: This ICR is currently scheduled to expire on June 30, 2008. An Agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information, unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's regulations in title 40 of the CFR, after appearing in the Federal Register when approved, are listed in 40 CFR part 9, are displayed either by publication in the Federal Register or by other appropriate means, such as on the related collection instrument or form, if applicable. The display of OMB control numbers in certain EPA regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR part 9. Abstract: Section 4 of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) is designed to assure that chemicals that may pose serious risks to human health or the environment undergo testing by manufacturers or processors, and that the results of such testing are made available to EPA. EPA uses the information collected under the authority of TSCA section 4 to assess risks associated with the manufacture, processing, distribution, use, or disposal of a chemical, and to support any necessary regulatory action with respect to that chemical. EPA must assure that appropriate tests are performed on a chemical if it decides: 1. That a chemical being considered under TSCA section 4(a) may pose an ``unreasonable risk'' or is produced in ``substantial'' quantities that may result in substantial or significant human [[Page 64077]] exposure or substantial environmental release of the chemical. 2. That additional data are needed to determine or predict the impacts of the chemical's manufacture, processing, distribution, use, or disposal. 3. That testing is needed to develop such data. Rules and consent orders under TSCA section 4 require that one manufacturer or processor of a subject chemical perform the specified testing and report the results of that testing to EPA. TSCA section 4 also allows a manufacturer or processor of a subject chemical to apply for an exemption from the testing requirement, if that testing will be or has been performed by another party. This information collection applies to reporting and recordkeeping activities associated with the information that EPA requires industry to provide in response to TSCA section 4 test rules, consent orders, test rule exemptions, and other data submissions. Responses to the collection of information are mandatory (see 40 CFR part 790). Respondents may claim all or part of a document confidential. EPA will disclose information that is covered by a claim of confidentiality only to the extent permitted by, and in accordance with, the procedures in TSCA section 14 and 40 CFR part 2. Burden statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 243 hours per response. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements which have subsequently changed; train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the information. The ICR provides a detailed explanation of this estimate, which is only briefly summarized here: Estimated total number of potential respondents: 58. Frequency of response: On occasion. Estimated total average number of responses for each respondent: 10.4. Estimated total annual burden hours: 112,590 hours. Estimated total annual costs: $ 5,662,701. This includes an estimated burden cost of $ 5,662,701 and an estimated cost of $ 0 for capital investment or maintenance and operational costs. IV. Are There Changes in the Estimates from the Last Approval? There is a net decrease of 90,424 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with that identified in the ICR currently approved by OMB. This decrease reflects EPA's revised estimates of the number of test rules and consent orders that the Agency expects to issue in the future, as well as revised estimates of the amount of testing still to be done under EPA's High Production Volume Challenge Program. The supporting statement includes detailed analyses of these revised estimates. This change is an adjustment. V. What is the Next Step in the Process for this ICR? EPA will consider the comments received and amend the ICR as appropriate. The final ICR package will then be submitted to OMB for review and approval pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.12. EPA will issue another Federal Register notice pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.5(a)(1)(iv) to announce the submission of the ICR to OMB and the opportunity to submit additional comments to OMB. If you have any questions about this ICR or the approval process, please contact the technical person listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. List of Subjects Environmental protection, Reporting and recordkeeping requirements. Dated: November 7, 2007.

Here is a really handy Game Case for Nintendo DS and 3DS games that holds 10 games that I modified from something I found on thingiverse. I didn't like the original design, so I shook a few things up to make it sturdier and more usable.
It comes with a lid that slides on, and the case is as long/thick as the DS itself. Take 10 games with you wherever you go, or just use this without the lid to keep your games nice and organized.
Note: the Nintendo DS and games that are in the picture are not included!
Not your thing? Well, check out my other designs here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/3DPrintedDebris
This is a 3D printed product, so there may be minor defects (rough edges, bumps, etc). I have spent months building my own machine to exact specifications for accuracy and surface quality, and I scrutinize every model very closely. I use only the highest quality filament to ensure colors are vibrant and defects are kept to an absolute minimum for both your item and my machine.
Every item in my shop is test printed and checked for not only aesthetics, but also the intended use. All of my items I list I personally test to ensure they meet my stringent standards. All items are printed in PLA, an organic non-toxic plastic made from corn and is biodegradable, yet very strong. PLA will not degrade under normal use, but will break down when buried.
If I'm not happy with it, it doesn't ship. You will get my very best work, which you will find is a cut above the rest!
Attribution: This is a derivative of thing 44052 created by peterpur. I've modified it to be 3D printable as well as added some structural enhancements to make it more usable.
Payment prior to starting work or initiating delivery. I can accept Etsy payments or paypal.
I will ship as soon as your item is ready, in most cases within a couple days. If I'm backed up, I will let you know sooner rather than later. As soon as I ship, I'll provide you a tracking number. For the holidays, here's the deadlines from the USPS:

Artist Biography
You know the story, kid gets a guitar for Christmas, never puts it down, moves to L.A. with his childhood band to find that power pop was no match for Hair Metal. Sticking to his musical guns, he retreats back home, gets married, and while raising three beautiful girls, (with a most understanding wife), continues to record and release albums.
After two fine LPs and an EP fronting Detroit's "The Respectables" Nick Piunti hit reset with 2013's "13 in My Head". A logical continuation, just a bit more personal, melodic, and still rocking like he was 13. That was just the start as since then Nick has released three more albums, 2015's "Beyond the Static", 2016's Jem Records debut "Trust your Instincts" and 2018's "Temporary High".
Nick recently solidified his live band with Ron Vensko/Drums (Thunderharp Choir, Hello Human), Jeff Hupp/Bass (The Atomic Numbers, Scott Fab) and Kevin Darnall Keys (The Kat Beal Band), collectively now known as Nick Piunti and The Complicated Men. Expect a new album from Nick & TCM in 2020.
Nick Piunti is a Detroit-based singer/songwriter with roots in classic rock and the early power pop movement. Raised in Riverview, Michigan just outside of Detroit, he formed his first band, Dwarf, with three of his sixth-grade classmates to play at their school's talent show. Dwarf would remain together for the next 14 years, gaining regional attention for their high-energy performances and melodic sound, which would later be identified as power pop.
Changing their band's name to The Take, they relocated to L.A., but were unable to fully connect with the hard rock and hair metal sound of the times, eventually disbanding and moving back to Michigan. Through the years, Piunti continued recording, releasing a solo album and gigging regionally. After spending some time away from the music industry to raise his family, he returned to the studio in 2002 and recorded a self-titled LP, beginning a new era in his career.
Soon he formed a new band in the power pop vein called The Respectables, who released their self-titled debut in 2005. A second album, Sibley Gardens, followed in 2008, earning national attention; it saw a couple of its songs placed in film (Jeff Who Lives at Home) and television (Mercy). The Respectables released a final EP, 3, in 2010 before going their separate ways.
No long after, Piunti began working with Detroit guitarist and songwriter Ryan Allen, of Thunder Birds are Go!, Friendly Foes and Exrta Arms, and collaborated on a group of songs that would eventually appear on his critically lauded 2013 solo release, 13 in My Head. Recorded in Ann Arbor with producer/engineer Geoff Michael, it set up a burgeoning partnership that would yield three more LPs over the next three years. First came 2015's sprightly Beyond the Static, followed in close succession by Trust Your Instincts, and Temporary High that made many year-end "Best Of" lists and became "The Coolest Song in the World" on Little Steven's Underground Garage for the week of July 23, 2018.
Now playing with the newly-formed Complicated Men made up of other Detroit rock vets - Ron Vensko/Drums (Thunderharp Choir, Hello Human), Jeff Hupp/Bass (The Atomic Numbers, Scott Fab) and Kevin Darnall Keys (The Kat Beal Band), the band has returned to the studio and will release a new album on Jem Records in early 2020.

text: Product Description The two-tier "Baytown" kettle allows you to close the upper part to prevent heat from escaping. The lid gives off this focused heat evenly to the food on the grill. Similar to a convection oven, this means your food cooks evenly on all sides. Special air vents afford even air circulation during grilling and prevent the coals from going out while the lid is closed.Indirect grilling - where the food lies in a enclosed space, not directly above the flame - is the barbecue method of choice for gourmets and can be practiced easily with the "Baytown". Use the charcoal holder to position the fuel where you want it in a matter of moments. Achieving a crisp yet juicy roast is as easy as ABC due to the lid's built-in thermometer which allows you to easily monitor the cooking temperature.If you remove the lid, the kettle grill can be used like a normal grill and use the included hook handles to easily lift the grill rack. With its wheels, the "Baytown" can be easily set up wherever you need it. Other features - like the removable ash collector or the enamelled grill rack - make cleaning easy so you can fire up your grill again in no time at all!

Sterling Volunteers Releases First Comprehensive Volunteer Screening Trends & Best Practices Report
Fort Collins, CO (November 30, 2015) – Sterling Volunteers' 2016 Volunteer Screening Trends and Best Practices Report reveals that a majority of volunteer organizations discover a misdemeanor or felony conviction for less than two percent of their volunteers during the background screening process. This low "hit rate" suggests that these organizations are receiving a poor quality check, likely searching nationwide criminal history databases without searching the primary source of information – the county or state courthouse; Sterling Volunteers finds substantially more hits using their comprehensive and proprietary locator and search tools, which always search the primary source of data. They are dedicated to changing the paradigm in the volunteer screening industry, where many organizations are using low quality searches that have been misrepresented by screening vendors – and that ultimately put their organizations at risk.
For its first-ever comprehensive report on volunteer screening trends and best practices, Sterling Volunteers surveyed 352 respondents including executives who run volunteer programs within all nonprofit sectors, such as religious, social or human services, youth development, education, healthcare and sports organizations. The full report provides insights and key data related to volunteer program management and addresses the types of volunteer screening challenges outlined above.
"This report is a major contribution to the vital process of demystifying screening in the nonprofit sector. It provides unique and fresh insights for all of us to compare ourselves to peers, and sets the table for a dialogue on best practices," said Tracy Hoover, CEO of Points of Light, the world's largest organization dedicated to volunteer service.
"We created this report to meet the demand for current, accurate data on nonprofit background screening practices and to offer a benchmark for the volunteer screening industry," said Executive Director, Katie Zwetzig. "Our inaugural report demonstrates the need for consistent screening practices and an overall lack of rescreening in the volunteer industry while at the same time proving the majority of organizations remain committed to the safety of their constituents."
Organizations surveyed placed safety as their top reason for screening volunteers. The majority of organizations put the most value on criminal record checks and sex offender searches but received alarmingly low "hit rates" for volunteers, which suggests they did not receive quality screens. The report discovered organizations conduct at least four types of criminal record checks on average for volunteers. With the exception of those working with vulnerable populations, just over half of organizations rescreen their volunteers, meaning 40 percent of organizations do not rescreen volunteers. Additionally, those surveyed cited volunteer screening fees as the most costly aspect of volunteer programs.
Low Conviction Rate for Criminal Record Checks
Out of the 352 organizations surveyed, 85 percent discover a misdemeanor or felony conviction for only 2 percent or fewer of their volunteers during the background screening process. Religious organizations reported the lowest percentage of screens flagged for convictions with more than half of respondents from faith-based organizations revealing that none of their volunteers' background checks revealed criminal convictions.
Safety Is the #1 Concern for Volunteer Screening
The primary reason organizations conduct background checks on volunteers is to provide a safe environment for staff, volunteers, constituents and the community. While reputation, compliance and quality of volunteers were also important reasons for screening, safety was by far the highest priority. Most organizations that conduct criminal record checks use sex offender searches (72.4 percent), current county and state searches (59.1 percent) and nationwide or multistate database searches (51.4 percent).
Expected Growth on the Horizon for Many Organizations
Increasing volunteerism and expanding program services is high on the agenda for many organizations. At least one-third of organizations surveyed expect to increase their number of volunteers in 2016. Forty-seven percent of organizations expect their volunteer pool to grow within one year, and of the organizations that project volunteer growth, nearly one-third expect a growth rate of five percent or more next year.
Volunteer Program Forecast
Fifty-seven percent of organizations currently conduct background checks on all volunteers. The top four changes organizations plan to make in 2016 include: screening more volunteers, improving integration between screening and other tools, performing rescreening and adding new searches. Few organizations intend to reduce their screening efforts, with the majority ranking volunteer background checks high in importance for their organizations.
About Sterling Volunteers 2016 Volunteer Screening Trends & Best Practices Report
This report offers essential insights on the practices, challenges and concerns of organizations that rely on dedicated volunteers. Researched and produced by Sterling Volunteers, the first-of-its-kind platform for volunteer background screening, the report includes responses from 352 professionals surveyed in May 2015.
About Sterling Volunteers

Our Volunteer Fast-Pass propels nonprofit organizations by empowering volunteers to take greater ownership of costly, time-consuming screening processes.

British pop band The Vamps played Adelaide Entertainment Centre Theatre on Wednesday night to a packed house of appreciative youngsters.
Supported by Aussie pop punk band Short Stack, The Vamps who brought us "Can We Dance?", "Last Night" and, more recently, "Cecilia" were eagerly awaited by a legion of primarily female fans.
Short Stack took to the stage to open for the feature act, but appeared to be singing to the beat of a different tune than The Vamps.
Greeting the crowd with, "What the F*ck is up Adelaide?" might have been more appropriate at one of their more typical gigs, considering the age of the crowd.
However, their intense energy and catchy tunes warmed the crowd up, getting everyone in the mood for what was to come later.
Short Stack announced they would return in April to play their own show where no doubt they would avoid parents covering the ears of unsuspecting juniors.
The Vamps arrived after a short break and blew away any pre-conceived notion that they may be a spinoff of the One-Direction manufactured success machine.
Brad Simpson (lead vocals and guitar), James McVey (lead guitar and vocals), Connor Ball (bass guitar and vocals) and Tristan Evans (drums and vocals) showed they are skilled musicians with an ability to deliver a powerhouse performance.
The UK four-piece who found their claim to fame via YouTube kicked off their set with a crowd favourite "Girls on TV" which immediately lifted the energy of the room.
Frontman Brad oozed charisma as he engaged with his audience, turning on the charm and flirting with the screaming fans, who were gasping for air and trying not to faint.
Mixed in with their known hits, The Vamps played some interesting cover mash-ups including "Locked out of Heaven" by Bruno Mars mixed with Taylor Swifts "I Knew You were Trouble" and Macklemore's hit "Thrift Shop".
Most impressive perhaps was Tristan's drum solo; showmanship at its finest, he never missed a beat proving the band have a long and successful career ahead of them.
After playing popular hits like "Somebody to You" and "Can We Dance?" which debuted at number two on the UK singles charts, The Vamps slowed down the pace with their first song from 2011 "She Was the One".
Serenading the audience with this ballad, most of the females in the audience were, at this stage, already madly in love with Brad so this just accelerated the collective swoon.
The band then ended on a high note with a cover of "Teenage Kicks" and their latest hit "Oh Cecilia (Breaking My Heart)" which has already reached 1.2 million views on YouTube in one week.
Returning for an encore at the crowd's request, they played "Risk It All" and left the young audience satisfied, and the adults, possibly surprised and impressed.

I made this card about a month ago during the Mini VSN (Virtual Stamp Night) on Splitcoast Stampers. My friend Stephanie (her card is below) joined me for a fun filled stamping evening. This was for the Red Mittens Challenge where we were to use a Red and White color combo and incorprate yarn in honor of the Red Mitten worn during the 2010 Winter Olympics.
Since this was before Valentine's Day, I decided to make mine a Valentine's Day card. This heart is from a long retired Stampin' Up! set called Love Always. But I so love the heart, so I cannot part with it! The heart stamp has the word LOVE already on it (you can see that in Stephanie's card below)...I just glued my yarn over top of the word. The yarn completely covered the word, so it almost looks like I am super crafty and made an embellishment on my own...oh well just crafty to think to put the yarn there I guess! The cut strip behind it is the Spellbinder's Lattice Borderabilities Petite. The rest of the card was kept simple mainly due to the 45 minute time constraint that you are to honor during the VSN....just goes to prove that "winning" cards don't have to take a ton of time...a lesson I really should remember more often!
Well that is really it for me...still can't believe it got picked! Anyway, check out Steph's card too for the same challenge and thanks for checking out my kind of engineering!
The Engineering Details
Stamps - Love Always (retired SU!); Paper - Real Red, Whisper White; Ink - Real Red; Accessories - White yarn, Lattice Borderabilities Petite (Spellbinders), scissors, dimensionals
