by Kaulitzed December 30, 2009
A person who typically enjoys laughing, playing sports/exercising, and getting the most out of each and every day. This person may have a lot of friends, but it doesn't really matter since they are an extremely great friend to each one. Although independent by nature, this person loves being in a group environment. Despite seeming shy at first, most people are attracted to their personality because there's a lot of positivity, humor, and good energy. This person is usually an 8 out of 10 in looks, but with their personality, they are catapulted into the 10 category pretty quickly. This is also a person who is very talented/gifted at many different things such as music, art, and dance.

OMG, you fucking hacker, turn of your wallhack, n00b.
by bad mongo July 30, 2003
A type of hack used in computer games such as Counter-Strike to exploit the terrain of the arena. Wallhacks come in many forms, but they all are pieces of programming designed to give an unfair advantage to the user, usually a teenage script kiddie. Among known varieties of wallhack are "Ghostmode" (the ability to walk through walls), "Railgunning" (the ability to shoot through walls), "Glassworld" (the ability to see through walls), and many more. Because of the nature of online gaming, it is highly likely that wallhacks will continue to flourish, as for each one found and destroyed, another variation is created.
When POProdigalSon turned on his wallhack, he got an easy kill on DragonLord by shooting him through a hill.

Strong Memorial Hospital Volunteers Honored

Friends of Strong Recognized for Outstanding Service

September 27, 2001

Friends of Strong, a volunteer organization that supports Strong Memorial Hospital, will honor long-time volunteers during its annual recognition dinner on Thursday, Oct. 4th, at the Kornberg Medical Research Building.

This year, the organization will present awards to five individuals and a Rochester business for their continued support to Strong. The event begins with dinner at 6 p.m., followed by the awards ceremony at 7 p.m.

"Every day dedicated people work very hard to help the patients that come to Strong Memorial Hospital for care," said Louise Criticos, director of Friends of Strong. "It's an honor to work with them and have the opportunity to recognize the extraordinary efforts they make."

The prestigious Hettie Shumway Award for leadership will be presented to Brighton resident Clare Rotenberg, a volunteer since 1993 who created the Patient Advocate Program. The retired teacher volunteered with pediatric programs and served as president of the Friends of Strong Council.

The Elizabeth Crozier Award for commitment will be given to Doramae "Dolly" Dickson of Macedon. A volunteer for more than 13 years, she's known for her bright smile and upbeat attitude that often cheers patients when she's working in the Patient Waiting Room.

Sylvia Stiller and Edward Yantz will receive the Dove Award for dedication. Stiller, who lives in Rochester, joined FOS in 1992 and has worked in the Admissions Center for many years, putting in more than 5,000 hours.

Yantz volunteers in the Child Life Department at Children's Hospital at Strong, always going beyond what's expected of him. He interacts well with children, often rocking babies, painting in the playroom, reading stories and walking with toddlers. The Henrietta resident's dedication and sincerity is considered exemplary by his peers.

The Evening/Weekend Award will be given to Kathy Salmon, a third-grade teacher at Scribner Road School in Penfield. Each Saturday since 1991, she has delivered flowers to patients, and, during the holidays, often leads caroling groups throughout the hospital.

Lastly, the Group Award will be presented to the Four Points Sheraton for its support of the organ transplant program. The Sheraton provides lodging for patients' families throughout treatment, if they can not afford to stay elsewhere. General Manager Matt Pica will accept the award on behalf of his staff.

The Friends of Strong also awarded more than $552,000 in gifts to more than 27 hospital departments to support equipment purchases, including $20,000 for a van for Strong Ties, $27,000 for a flexible endoscopic evaluator for surgery, $30,000 for a trauma room central monitor for the Emergency Department, and $42,000 for an isokinetic testing machine for sports medicine.

Last year, more than 950 volunteers donated approximately 112,000 hours to the hospital, providing a variety of services including patient transportation, delivering meals, dispensing medication and raising funds through special events and the operation of retail stores.

For customers seeking additional manufacturing capacity, Canon Throughput Enhancement Packages increase wafer-per-hour output and reduce cost-of-ownership. In some cases, Canon Throughput Enhancement Packages may even allow customers to delay or avoid purchasing additional systems.

One Throughput Enhancement that can be applied to nearly all installed tools is System Parameter Optimization (SPO). SPO involves the upgrading of system control functions, and the optimization of system and process parameters to significantly reduce wafer processing times.

As with most Applications Services, the SPO process begins with an Assessment Phase. When requested, Canon Engineers perform an onsite audit of key system and job parameters on your systems. The audit data is used to simulate the throughput increase that will be gained by applying the SPO package. Based on these findings, Canon is able to confidently negotiate guaranteed performance specifications based on the unique population of tools at every site. By offering a complete and accurate description of expected package results and costs, our customers are able to justify these investments that are aimed at improving operational efficiency.

A recent example of System Parameter Optimization involved at a mass production DRAM facility where SPO was implemented in a two step process.

Initially, only a portion of the key parameters were optimized and throughput increased nearly 15%. Over the next several weeks, critical process metrics were monitored to insure that system performance remained within specifications at the higher throughput.

Confident that the actual results matched the SPO simulation, a second round of parameter optimization took place and the total throughput improvement ballooned to over 23%. As expected, process stability again remained within specifications.

What does a 23+% increase in throughput mean? If you have 4 steppers in your fab, applying SPO to all of your systems can provide you with capacity nearly equaling that of an additional system. Effectively, a 5th stepper can be added with a capital expense of $0.

The ability to add additional manufacturing capacity with minimal investment is one of the benefits that comes from applying Canon Throughput Enhancement Packages to your system.

KJ17ex7.7B Series

Broadcast Lenses

  • Four significant technologies converged to produce the KJ17ex7.7B portable HD ENG lens system that has been designed to partner with the most contemporary of the new tapeless 2/3-inch HD production cameras:
  • Optical Technologies
    • Newly developed optical glass materials each having unique dispersion characteristics allowed improved control over chromatic aberrations and geometric distortion. Lens element surface accuracy has been improved two-fold over those in the earlier HDgc lenses contributing to the improved MTF performance
    • New Multilayer Optical Coatings combined with new deposition processes produce an improved optical contrast ratio
    • Three-part Internal Focus is a Canon design innovation that reduces changes in aberrations when focusing to different object distances while also exercising improved control over any tendency for focus breathing
    • New and more powerful computer design tools facilitated a greater degree of optimization of multiple optical variables in the lens design
  • Digital Technologies

    new fourth-generation digital servo systems further empowers the camera operator in terms of operational creativity:

    • Enhanced Digital Drive technology based upon a totally new software platform provides precision microcomputer control of the three servo systems for zoom, iris and focus while also facilitating new developments in lens-camera correction of lateral chromatic aberration
    • Unique Information Display and extended memory within the digital drive unit extends user-defined digital functionality

    • Canon's patented Micro Roofmirror Array (MRA) technology underlies the unique miniature 16-bit rotary encoders that are used for each of the zoom, iris, and focus position detection (each with a positional accuracy of 0.1 micrometer)
    • Dynamic Zoom Speed Range can be adjusted from 0.5 seconds to 5 minutes (from wide to telephoto extremes)
  • Optomechanical Technologies

    extensive use of 3D CAD-CAM design facilitated a design that paid high attention to operator comfort and attendant lowering of fatigue during protracted shooting:

    • Digital Drive Unit was totally redesigned to take into account the curved human hand that encompasses the unit with a view of shaping the unit for greater comfort and to better facilitate the actuation of lens controls. The unit shape also provides a wider separation that allows the other hand to more easily adjust the focus control. Finally, the drive unit was narrowed and its mounting angle on the lens set to allow the operator's elbow to settle close to the body thus providing an important reduction in fatigue when operating a shoulder mounted lens-camera system
    • Special Magnesium alloy body for light weight and exceptional durability
    • Computer simulation of the optomechanical design allowed examination of optimized anti-reflection internal barrel coatings, and structural techniques (light blocking grooves and knife edges) that produced greater control over harmful light reflections within the lens barrel that can be stimulated by strong light sources
  • Ecological Design
    All contemporary Canon lenses avoid the use of materials and substances potentially harmful to the environment. Lead has been removed from all optics and other identified substances from all components comprising the composite lens system.

Fact Sheets

USAID’s Somali Youth Learners Initiative (SYLI) aims to support the next generation of Somali leaders by expanding access to quality secondary education opportunities for over 160,000 youth. Through SYLI, the Federal Government of Somalia and regional Ministry of Education officials receive support in strengthening secondary education, teachers participate in trainings to enhance their classroom skills, and youth gain access to economic opportunities, enabling them to become responsible members of society that contribute to their communities.

A U.S. delegation, led by USAID Acting Administrator Alfonso E. Lenhardt, visits Nepal to meet with GoN officials and USAID partners, participate in an aerial survey of affected districts, and observe the distribution of emergency relief supplies. Joint USAID Disaster Assistance Response Team (DART) and U.S. military aerial assessments of affected areas rendered inaccessible by landslides and debris began on May 4. Despite road blockages and mountainous terrain, aid is beginning to reach critical areas identified by the GoN.

Aircraft from the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) have arrived in the Nepali capital of Kathmandu to help transport emergency relief supplies and humanitarian personnel to remote villages, particularly those made inaccessible by landslides or debris since the April 25 earthquake. USAID/OFDA is providing $500,000 to the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) to support humanitarian coordination and information management efforts for the Nepal earthquake response.

The Agency for Technical Cooperation and Development (ACTED) distributes plastic sheeting provided by USAID/OFDA to earthquake-affected households in Kathmandu District’s Sankhu village and surrounding areas. The USAID Disaster Assistance Response Team (DART) and the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) Joint Humanitarian Assessment Survey Team (JHAST) are working with Nepalese authorities and relief organizations in Nepal to determine needs for logistical support.

In coordination with Nepalese authorities, the USAID Disaster Assistance Response Team (DART) conducts a live rescue in Kathmandu. Heavy-duty plastic sheeting from USAID/OFDA arrives in Nepal to support the critical shelter needs of earthquake-affected communities. Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator Valerie Amos travels to Nepal to assess the humanitarian situation and ongoing rescue and relief efforts.

Advances in science have made it possible to end the AIDS epidemic by increasing access to HIV testing and antiretroviral medications among individuals facing the greatest risk of infection. In many countries across Asia and the Pacific, the greatest proportion of new HIV infections each year occur among men who have sex with men (MSM) and transgender women, yet the number of people in these populations accessing HIV services remains very low. With funding from the U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), the U.S. Agency for International Development Regional Development Mission for Asia (USAID/RDMA) works to control the epidemic by using better methods to reach, test, treat and retain in clinical services for MSM and transgender women.

USAID/OFDA is airlifting 700 rolls of heavy-duty plastic sheeting to Nepal, which will address the critical shelter needs of up to 35,000 earthquake-affected people. The UN launched a $415 million flash funding appeal for humanitarian response efforts in Nepal, including food, health, and shelter assistance, as well as water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) support. Rescue and relief operations are underway in nine of the 11 most severely affected districts, the UN reports.

  • New EVD cases continue decreasing in Guinea and Sierra Leone, but at slower rate
  • Government of Guinea (GoG) authorities and EVD response actors launch a four-day EVD detection and prevention campaign in Coyah Prefecture
  • WHO reports first confirmed EVD case in Sierra Leone’s Koinadugu District since mid-March

The nearly 130-member USAID Disaster Assistance Response Team (DART) arrived in Nepal’s capital city of Kathmandu on April 28 to support emergency response efforts in cooperation with the Government of Nepal (GoN). USAID/OFDA is contributing $10 million in humanitarian assistance for earthquake response operations.

Relief efforts in response to the magnitude 7.8 earthquake that struck central Nepal on April 25 are underway in Nepal and other affected countries. The USAID Disaster Assistance Response Team (DART)–comprising nearly 130 humanitarian and urban search-and-rescue (USAR) personnel—are en route to Nepal. USAID/OFDA announced an additional $9 million to support emergency relief operations in Nepal, bringing total USAID funding to $10 million as of April 27.

The Leaven of the Pharisees.* 1Meanwhile, so many people were crowding together that they were trampling one another underfoot.a He began to speak, first to his disciples, “Beware of the leaven—that is, the hypocrisy—of the Pharisees.

Courage under Persecution.* 2b “There is nothing concealed that will not be revealed, nor secret that will not be known.c 3Therefore whatever you have said in the darkness will be heard in the light, and what you have whispered behind closed doors will be proclaimed on the housetops. 4I tell you, my friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body but after that can do no more. 5I shall show you whom to fear. Be afraid of the one who after killing has the power to cast into Gehenna;* yes, I tell you, be afraid of that one. 6Are not five sparrows sold for two small coins?* Yet not one of them has escaped the notice of God. 7Even the hairs of your head have all been counted. Do not be afraid. You are worth more than many sparrows.d 8I tell you, everyone who acknowledges me before others the Son of Man will acknowledge before the angels of God. 9But whoever denies me before others will be denied before the angels of God.e

Sayings about the Holy Spirit.* 10“Everyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but the one who blasphemes against the holy Spirit will not be forgiven.f 11When they take you before synagogues and before rulers and authorities,g do not worry about how or what your defense will be or about what you are to say. 12For the holy Spirit will teach you at that moment what you should say.”

Saying against Greed. 13* Someone in the crowd said to him, “Teacher, tell my brother to share the inheritance with me.” 14He replied to him, “Friend, who appointed me as your judge and arbitrator?”h 15Then he said to the crowd, “Take care to guard against all greed, for though one may be rich, one’s life does not consist of possessions.”i

Parable of the Rich Fool. 16Then he told them a parable. “There was a rich man whose land produced a bountiful harvest. 17He asked himself, ‘What shall I do, for I do not have space to store my harvest?’ 18And he said, ‘This is what I shall do: I shall tear down my barns and build larger ones. There I shall store all my grain and other goods 19j and I shall say to myself, “Now as for you, you have so many good things stored up for many years, rest, eat, drink, be merry!”’k 20But God said to him, ‘You fool, this night your life will be demanded of you; and the things you have prepared, to whom will they belong?’ 21Thus will it be for the one who stores up treasure for himself but is not rich in what matters to God.”*

Dependence on God. 22l He said to [his] disciples, “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life and what you will eat, or about your body and what you will wear. 23For life is more than food and the body more than clothing. 24Notice the ravens: they do not sow or reap; they have neither storehouse nor barn, yet God feeds them. How much more important are you than birds!m 25Can any of you by worrying add a moment to your lifespan? 26If even the smallest things are beyond your control, why are you anxious about the rest? 27Notice how the flowers grow. They do not toil or spin. But I tell you, not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of them.n 28If God so clothes the grass in the field that grows today and is thrown into the oven tomorrow, will he not much more provide for you, O you of little faith? 29As for you, do not seek what you are to eat and what you are to drink, and do not worry anymore. 30All the nations of the world seek for these things, and your Father knows that you need them. 31Instead, seek his kingdom, and these other things will be given you besides. 32Do not be afraid any longer, little flock, for your Father is pleased to give you the kingdom.o 33Sell your belongings and give alms. Provide money bags for yourselves that do not wear out, an inexhaustible treasure in heaven that no thief can reach nor moth destroy.p 34For where your treasure is, there also will your heart be.

Vigilant and Faithful Servants.* 35q “Gird your loins and light your lamps 36and be like servants who await their master’s return from a wedding, ready to open immediately when he comes and knocks.r 37Blessed are those servants whom the master finds vigilant on his arrival. Amen, I say to you, he will gird himself, have them recline at table, and proceed to wait on them. 38And should he come in the second or third watch and find them prepared in this way, blessed are those servants. 39s Be sure of this: if the master of the house had known the hour when the thief was coming, he would not have let his house be broken into. 40You also must be prepared, for at an hour you do not expect, the Son of Man will come.”

41Then Peter said, “Lord, is this parable meant for us or for everyone?” 42And the Lord replied, “Who, then, is the faithful and prudent steward whom the master will put in charge of his servants to distribute [the] food allowance at the proper time? 43Blessed is that servant whom his master on arrival finds doing so. 44Truly, I say to you, he will put him in charge of all his property. 45But if that servant says to himself, ‘My master is delayed in coming,’* and begins to beat the menservants and the maidservants, to eat and drink and get drunk, 46then that servant’s master will come on an unexpected day and at an unknown hour and will punish him severely and assign him a place with the unfaithful. 47That servant who knew his master’s will but did not make preparations nor act in accord with his will shall be beaten severely;t 48and the servant who was ignorant of his master’s will but acted in a way deserving of a severe beating shall be beaten only lightly. Much will be required of the person entrusted with much, and still more will be demanded of the person entrusted with more.

Jesus: A Cause of Division.* 49“I have come to set the earth on fire, and how I wish it were already blazing! 50* There is a baptism with which I must be baptized, and how great is my anguish until it is accomplished!u 51Do you think that I have come to establish peace on the earth?v No, I tell you, but rather division.w 52From now on a household of five will be divided, three against two and two against three; 53a father will be divided against his son and a son against his father, a mother against her daughter and a daughter against her mother, a mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.”x

Signs of the Times.y 54He also said to the crowds, “When you see [a] cloud rising in the west you say immediately that it is going to rain—and so it does; 55and when you notice that the wind is blowing from the south you say that it is going to be hot—and so it is. 56You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of the earth and the sky; why do you not know how to interpret the present time?

Settlement with an Opponent.z 57“Why do you not judge for yourselves what is right? 58If you are to go with your opponent before a magistrate, make an effort to settle the matter on the way; otherwise your opponent will turn you over to the judge, and the judge hand you over to the constable, and the constable throw you into prison. 59I say to you, you will not be released until you have paid the last penny.”*

* [12:1] See notes on Mk 8:15 and Mt 16:512.

* [12:29] Luke presents a collection of sayings of Jesus exhorting his followers to acknowledge him and his mission fearlessly and assuring them of God’s protection even in times of persecution. They are paralleled in Mt 10:2633.

* [12:5] Gehenna: see note on Mt 5:22.

* [12:6] Two small coins: the Roman copper coin, the assarion (Latin as), was worth about one-sixteenth of a denarius (see note on Lk 7:41).

* [12:1012] The sayings about the holy Spirit are set in the context of fearlessness in the face of persecution (Lk 12:29; cf. Mt 12:3132). The holy Spirit will be presented in Luke’s second volume, the Acts of the Apostles, as the power responsible for the guidance of the Christian mission and the source of courage in the face of persecution.

* [12:1334] Luke has joined together sayings contrasting those whose focus and trust in life is on material possessions, symbolized here by the rich fool of the parable (Lk 12:1621), with those who recognize their complete dependence on God (Lk 12:21), those whose radical detachment from material possessions symbolizes their heavenly treasure (Lk 12:3334).

* [12:21] Rich in what matters to God: literally, “rich for God.”

* [12:3548] This collection of sayings relates to Luke’s understanding of the end time and the return of Jesus. Luke emphasizes for his readers the importance of being faithful to the instructions of Jesus in the period before the parousia.

* [12:45] My master is delayed in coming: this statement indicates that early Christian expectations for the imminent return of Jesus had undergone some modification. Luke cautions his readers against counting on such a delay and acting irresponsibly. Cf. the similar warning in Mt 24:48.

* [12:4953] Jesus’ proclamation of the kingdom is a refining and purifying fire. His message that meets with acceptance or rejection will be a source of conflict and dissension even within families.

* [12:50] Baptism: i.e., his death.

* [12:59] The last penny: Greek, lepton, a very small amount. Mt 5:26 has for “the last penny” the Greek word kodrantēs (Latin quadrans, “farthing”).

Al-Monitor -- Egypt Breaks Faith On Religious Freedom

June 10, 2013 | By Katrina Lantos Swett and Mary Ann Glendon

The following op-ed appeared on Al-Monitor on June 9, 2013.

In June 2012, more than 16 months following the Tahrir Square revolution and the end of Hosni Mubarak"s reign, Egypt went to the polls and elected Muslim Brotherhood candidate Mohammed Morsi as its new president.

For many, this historic election was a hopeful step toward democracy and respect for human rights. Yet today, one year later, hope is flagging amid woeful neglect of pivotal rights, including religious freedom.

Members of the US Commission on Religious Freedom (USCIRF), on which we serve, saw this firsthand in February of this year. Upon arriving in Cairo, our delegation met with the US ambassador, high-level Egyptian officials, human rights defenders, women"s rights advocates, Muslim religious leaders and members of minority religious communities.

During this visit, USCIRF confirmed that Egypt is failing to meet international religious-freedom standards. In our 2013 annual report, released on April 30, we elaborated on our findings.

Among our concerns are Egypt"s new constitution, a code forbidding blasphemy, an impunity problem, restrictions on building places of worship and problems regarding religious identification and conversion.

While Cairo"s constitution affirms "freedom of belief,” it mentions only the right to practice religious "rites” and establish places of worship. It appears to limit even this narrow freedom to Egypt"s three "divine” religions of Islam, Christianity and Judaism, excluding Baha"is, atheists and agnostics, among others.

Egypt"s constitution also backs anti-blasphemy legislation . Explaining this disturbing stance to USCIRF, officials adamantly insisted that there be legal consequences, including prosecution, for insulting people"s beliefs. Egypt already has laws - chief among them Article 98(f) of its penal code - forbidding "contempt” or "defamation” of religion. We have seen more of these cases since the Tahrir revolution, affecting Coptic Christians and Muslims. In July 2012, Mohammed Asfour, a Shiite teacher, was given a one-year jail sentence for " contempt of religion .” Earlier this year, the government charged Bassem Youssef, a Sunni comedian and satirist, with "insulting Islam” on his popular television program.

Besides directly violating religious freedom, such laws fuel Egypt"s impunity problem by provoking hateful attacks against Copts and other religious minorities for alleged blasphemous speech. While the number of casualties has fallen, perpetrators of past violence have gone unpunished.

Too often, it is the government that drives the hatred. Through incendiary rhetoric, state-run media and public officials often stoke the fires of anti-Semitism. Morsi"s recently unearthed 2010 comments urging Egyptians to "nurse our children and grandchildren on hatred” for Jews and Zionists, and another interview in which he labeled Jews the descendants of "apes and pigs” underscore the problem.

Egypt"s government also has a problem regarding the building and maintaining of houses of worship. In 2012, it approved no churches for construction and has since failed to pass a suitable bill enabling Egyptians regardless of religious community to meet their needs in this arena.

Finally, Cairo does injury to religious freedom by the way it ties religion to identity documents. Egyptian-born Muslims who convert to Christianity may not display this change on such documents. Converts to Islam who return to Christianity face similar difficulties. Despite a July 2011 law making it easier to reflect one"s religion on ID cards - and not have to declare oneself a "former Muslim” - obtaining accurate identity cards remains a serious problem. Egypt bars the married members of an entire religious group - the 2,000-member Baha"i community, whose marriages are not officially recognized - from obtaining them and thus from banking, registering for school or owning a car. Baha"is also cannot meet or engage in communal religious activities.

How should the United States, which provides Egypt with billions in aid, respond to these deteriorating religious-freedom conditions?

It should urge the repeal of "contempt-of-religion” laws and discriminatory decrees against religious minorities, the passage of a law for building and repairing places of worship and the removal of religion from identity documents. It should press for prosecution of government-funded clerics, government officials and others who incite violence, while disciplining government-funded clerics who preach hatred. It should keep pressing Egypt to bring the violent to justice. And it should refuse to certify the disbursement of military aid until Egypt shows it is using funds for pro-freedom policies.

The message should be clear: Egypt must do far more to uphold freedom and fulfill the promise of Tahrir Square.

Structures - 2 of 11

Structures FAQs - 11 Found

What sources were used to create The National Map structures products?

USGS generally relies on data from external sources to support its requirement for structures as a core layer in The National Map. The structures currently included at a national scope are hospitals, law enforcement, fire stations, and other similar essential facilities. This data was developed as part of an on-going effort between Federal agencies and States. For The National Map, the primary sources for the data are the States. In addition, the USGS reconciles the State data with the location and feature names from the Geographic Names Information System, achieving a single baseline of data for State and Federal vector data sources as well as gazetteer applications. By having a consistent baseline, all involved organizations can have a common view of the data content and also readily share data updates.

7 Quicktakes Sunday #4: Perspective

1) Today, I had to drive to Cleveland in the afternoon for a week of meetings and time in the office.  It’s amazing to me to think that Mark and I did this trip 2x/weekend almost every weekend for 10 months.  I really don’t know how we managed.  In reflecting on it, I think it’s true that life has different seasons and it’s remarkable how we adapt to those seasons and we just get done what we need to get done.  During those months, we fit our lives into Monday-Friday and Saturday & Sunday were in many ways special days that were outside the realm of our normal lives.  Now, it’s all a lot more blended together.  There’s not the distinction of “my life” and “his life” and “our life”…those separate lives now occupy just our working hours and the rest of it is “our life.” The divisions have changed significantly; before, it was always a bonus to get a few extra hours in “our life” and now it’s strange to lose those extra hours and go back to the way things were.  (I’d much rather live with the way things are now!). Still, I know the next 5 days will go quickly and then I’ll head back to Ontario Friday night, in another flashback of the good old days, but this time, I’m going home, and I don’t have to do the drive again on Sunday! :).

2) We get asked a lot what we’re working on the house these days, and really, my answer is: “trying to get it clean.” (See last week’s post!) I’m encouraged though that, even though we didn’t get it much cleaner this week, the part we cleaned did stay clean.  So, it is possible…it just takes a little bit of extra diligence. (I realize that’s just a really dull update…but it was seriously a highlight of my week)

3) Our attention, though, in terms of projects, is turning to the outside.  When my parents visited in February, my mom suggested that we remove some overgrown bushes, and this week, we had them pulled out.  It’s SUCH an improvement.  I don’t have great pictures, but you can see here where Mark started turning over soil today where some of the bushes were.  I’m hoping to put in some flowering bushes or maybe some climbing roses or other such flowers.   This particular bed eventually winds its way from the side of our house next to the driveway all along the side and front of our house, so there’s a lot of potential. It’s right near the gate, too, where people would enter the patio/backdoor area.

4) Thursday, I happened to have some frozen bread dough that I needed to make into cinnamon rolls.  Mark was fascinated by the process and took some pictures/video. He thought it quite strange that I was using dental floss to slice them off the roll, so we have a video to demonstrate how it’s done (it’s in high speed cause we were running out of space on teh camera :)…)

5) Today was over 70 degrees! Mark walked home from church and I sat out on our deck/patio for awhile.  Maggie was enjoying the spring weather too.

6) Reading: I’m reading a biography of Mickey Mantle. Yup. Baseball.  I think my appreciation of the book is severely limited by my lack of understanding and background of baseball.  Still, it’s moderately interesting.  On my drive to cleveland, I listened to a podcast about cities and how one physicist (I think?) has cities reduced to a bunch of ratios and mathematical formulas. For instance, pick a city and all people within that city walk at the same pace roughly. AND….that pace is proportional according to some formula to the population of the city.  In the end, how quickly people walk, the number of libraries, how quickly people talk, etc are all predictable based on the population.   anyway- there’s apparently a book that explains it and i think it needs to be added to my reading list :)
7) New project idea?  What if we find an old library card catalog and rebuild it to be a dining room buffet?  I really don’t come up with these things on my own, but when I see them….how can I say no?

Michelle Dasso

Michelle Dasso

Head coach Michelle Dasso enters her eighth season at the helm of the Illinois women's tennis program. Dasso became the seventh coach of the Fighting Illini after a tremendous playing and coaching career at the University of Notre Dame.

Read Full Bio

In just seven short years, Dasso has made huge strides with the women's tennis program.

Dasso's 2011-12 squad produced three All-Big Ten honorees, the most in program history. Melissa Kopinski and Allison Falkin were named first-team, while Marisa Lambropoulos was named second-team. The Orange and Blue took down No. 9 Texas, marking Illinois' first win over a top-10 team since 2003, and finished the year 18-8 overall with a No. 21 ranking.

The 2010-11 Illini boasted two All-Big Ten honorees, including Rachael White (first team) and Amy Allin (second team).

In the previous season, the Illini were rewarded with their first top-25 finish in the final Campbell's/ITA rankings since 2004, after making their third straight NCAA tournament appearance. The Orange and Blue finished 15-10 overall, including nine wins over nationally ranked opponents and placed third in the Big Ten with an 8-2 mark. Dasso also showed her recruiting prowess, signing the fourth-ranked recruiting class in the nation, which was the highest-ranked class in Illinois history.

In addition to her Illinois coaching duties, Dasso also served as coach for the fourth annual Master'U BNP Paribas for the second straight year. The international competition features the top collegiate players from around the world. Working alongside Boise State head coach Greg Patton, the duo guided the U.S. to a first-place finish with a 4-3 victory over France. It was the first-ever championship for the U.S. in only its second appearance in the tournament.

In 2008-09, the Illini advanced to the second round of the NCAA tournament for the first time since 2003 with a 4-3 victory over No. 19 Vanderbilt, which also marked their first win over a top-20 opponent in five years. The squad took home Illinois' Outstanding Team GPA Award with a cumulative GPA of 3.475.

After battling through an injury plagued first season as head coach, Dasso turned the program around in 2007-08. In only her second year at the the helm, Dasso helped lead the Orange and Blue to a fourth-place finish in the Big Ten and its first NCAA tournament appearance in four years.

Dasso is a native of Long Grove, Ill., and a 1997 graduate of Stevenson High School. She spent three years as an assistant coach for the University of Notre Dame (2003-06) women's tennis program under head coach Jay Louderback. Her primary responsibilities in South Bend, Ind., were recruiting, on-court coaching, budgeting, travel arrangement and managing the strength and conditioning program.

With the Fighting Irish, Dasso garnered ITA National Assistant Coach of the Year honors after leading Notre Dame to unprecedented success in 2005-06. Notre Dame finished 27-2 on the season and was ranked No. 2 in the country for eight weeks before falling in the quarterfinals of the NCAA Championships. In the fall of 2005, she coached the doubles tandem of Catrina and Christian Thompson to the ITA All-American Championships doubles title, becoming the first Notre Dame women's tennis players to capture a collegiate grand slam tournament.

In only her third season with Notre Dame, Dasso made a name for herself as a recruiter. She helped recruit the 2006-07's Irish signing class that ranked No. 1 in the country by, while previously being involved in recruiting two All-Americans. In addition, the women's tennis team was annually in contention for the highest team GPA honors among all Notre Dame athletic teams.

As a player, Dasso is the most decorated women's tennis player in Notre Dame history. She grabbed the ITA's National Senior Player of the Year accolade in 2001, and is the program's first four-time All-American. She still tops the Irish record books in nearly every statistical category, including career singles victories (140), most wins at No. 1 singles (67), season singles victories (40) and combined season victories (74).

In 2001, she received the Francis Patrick O'Conner Award, presented annually by the University to one male and one female student-athlete who best displayed the total embodiment of the true spirit of Notre Dame.

After earning a bachelor's degree in business administration-marketing from Notre Dame in 2001, Dasso played professionally for two years, before returning to South Bend to join the Irish staff.

With a perfect 31-0 record, Clark took home the 2002 Missouri High School 4A State Singles Championship and was voted the Kansas City Star Tennis Male Athlete of the Year. He was also named first-team All-Mid-Continent Conference during the 2002-03 campaign. Clark served as captain of the UM-Kansas City men's tennis team from 2002-04.

Virgin Media has launched two new tariffs offering unfettered mobile internet data to pay as you go customers, ahead of the surge in PAYG handset sales in the run-up to Christmas.

The entry-level so-called Big Data and Texts tariff is priced £10 and gets you unlimited data and 300 texts per month, plus the £10 airtime you’ve added. Opt to pay £5 more, though, and you’ll be entitled to unlimited texts too.

Virgin Media new logo

Alongside these, Virgin has launched its ‘Big Talk’ tariff. This starts at £10 with unlimited calls to any landline plus 120 anytime mobile minutes. As with Big Data and Texts, add £5 and unlimited texts are yours too.

Jamie Heywood, director of mobile at the carrier, said: "Unlimited data is a must to get the most out of the amazing smartphones available today.

“People want to be connected wherever they are so we've introduced unlimited data without the ties of a contract

"Having introduced unbeatable pay-monthly tariffs earlier this year, we're now introducing incredible value pay-as-you-go tariffs too which makes Virgin Media the unbeatable choice for unlimited data, whether you're willing to sign up to a new contract or not."

The tariffs are intended to compete with similar offerings from Three and SIM-only network GiffGaff, which also provide unlimited data on PAYG plans.

Virgin claims that data consumption among PAYG customers has risen 100 per cent in the last year.

AccessAbility Director Applies Personal Experience to Help Students

Photo by Connie Cheng/The Mercury

As a young girl, Kerry Tate received treatment for sensorineural hearing loss at UT Dallas' Callier Center for Communication Disorders. Today, Tate serves as the director of the Office of Student AccessAbility.

Kerry Tate’s parents recognized the slow development of speech in their young daughter when she was just 1.

The toddler’s speech was not developing on track and she was not responding to verbal cues. Tate was diagnosed with severe sensorineural hearing loss, a permanent hearing loss due to non-functional inner ear/cochlear sensory cells (hair cells).

Tate first came to UT Dallas’ Callier Center for Communication Disorders when she was 3 years old to get assistance with her hearing impairment. Her experience at Callier greatly improved her development and ultimately led her to her position as director of the Office of Student AccessAbility. The office enhances the quality of life for students by removing barriers for those with disabilities and by providing equal access to help them reach their academic goals.

When Tate was a young high school student, she said her school counselor did not believe she would succeed at institutions of higher education. She continued to go to the Callier Center for assistance through her high school and college years. Tate said the Callier Center offered insightful advice about how to handle the day-to-day communications with her teachers and professors.

“They were very good at working with our family,” Tate said. “I really had such a great outcome here.”

Tate has a master’s degree in special education and psychology from Texas A&M University-Commerce. She received her undergraduate degree from Cottey College and Texas Woman’s University and is working on an advanced degree at UT Dallas.

Tate said one of AccessAbility’s greatest successes was removing the word disability from the office’s name.

“We wanted to get the word disability out of the way,” Tate said. “We wanted it to be AccessAbility because it is access and ability.”

We want them to feel empowered and ready to be leaders when they leave [UT Dallas].

Kerry Tate,
director of the Office of Student AccessAbility

Tate said another success was establishing a chapter of Delta Alpha Pi, an international honor society that recognizes students with disabilities and their successes.

AccessAbility offers a supportive environment for all students. It teaches advocacy skills that will benefit them after they graduate from UT Dallas.

 “We want them to feel empowered and ready to be leaders when they leave [UT Dallas],” Tate said.

The AccessAbility team offers encouragement to students who have not developed their ability to communicate their needs to others. Rebecca Jones, student worker at AccessAbility and a speech-language pathology and audiology sophomore, recommended that students reach out to the AccessAbility team for a support system.

“They’re really accommodating to every student,” she said. “The students feel really comfortable around Abby [Morris, assistant director at AccessAbility] and Kerry, and feel really at home here.”

Tate said she approaches students’ needs on a case-by-case scenario. Each student receives the personalized attention to best suit his or her situation. Tate said she strives to offer each student a personalized transition into college life.

“Disabilities are such a wide spectrum,” Tate said. “Even though the disability may be the same, their needs are going to be different.”

CHARGERS NOTES: Castillo dodges a knee injury

SAN DIEGO ... The hit that sent Chargers defensive lineman Luis Castillo to the turf Monday night ... and kept him there, motionless and fearing he'd suffered a serious knee injury ... seemingly will not cause any lasting damage.

"It was a scary moment there, obviously," Chargers coach Norv Turner said Tuesday about the low blow applied by New York Jets running back Thomas Jones in the Chargers' 48-29 victory at Qualcomm Stadium. "He's got soreness right now. All the tests, the MRI and everything, came out where he's fine."

Turner said NFL officials will review the play and determine if Jones' block was legal.

"I don't think it was intentional," Turner said.

Kickoff coverage woes

Just as the Chargers patched some of their defensive deficiencies in the win, their kickoff coverage team sprung a leak.

The Chargers allowed two long kickoff returns that led to Jets touchdown drives of 5 and 19 yards.

Turner said the promotion of linebacker Jyles Tucker to starter status (as the replacement for injured Shawne Merriman) and increased playing time for safety Steve Gregory has forced the Chargers to reshuffle their coverage teams.

"What I really think happened is we've got some young guys on the kickoff coverage, and when we got hit with one, I think instead of saying, 'Hey, we're going to go fly and go faster,' I think we got a little bit passive and conservative," Turner said. "And that's usually what happens with young guys."

Backfield tandem

Although backup running back Darren Sproles had yet another effective game (38 rushing yards on five carries, 39 receiving yards on two catches) his "change- of-pace" status won't change.

"I like the mix we have with our backs," Turner said. "We have the best back in football in L.T. and we need to get him going like he's done."

Tomlinson has been slowed by a toe injury suffered in the Chargers' season-opening loss to the Carolina Panthers.

Et cetera

The team made several roster moves, signing veteran DT Ian Scott, who formerly played with the Bears, Eagles and Panthers; releasing rookie CB DeJuan Tribble and releasing LB Eric Bakhtiari (USD) off the practice squad. … Coach Norv Turner reported no significant injuries from Monday's night's game. - Turner said that on QB Philip Rivers' lone interception against the Jets, on his first pass attempt, the ball was snapped early. "Instead of just throwing it away he tried to make something happen. But other than that he was outstanding." - Rivers leads the NFL with nine touchdown passes. His 124.8 passer rating also is tops in the league. - Backup Tim Dobbins saw significant playing time in the Chargers' inside linebacker rotation and finished with two tackles and forced fumble. "Tim Dobbins gives us a physical presence, he's very aggressive," Turner said. - Turner wouldn't bite on questions about the ongoing dysfunction in the Oakland Raiders organization. It has been rumored for weeks that Raiders owner Al Davis is on the verge of firing coach Lane Kiffin. The Chargers play in Oakland, where Turner coached for two seasons, on Sunday. "Here's what you do," Turner said. "You guys all talk about all that. And we look at the tape. All that stuff doesn't mean anything to me or to us."

Aircraft carrier Stennis deploys to west Pacific

— The aircraft carrier John Stennis is expected to arrive this week at San Diego to pick up its air wing.

The Stennis left Bremerton, Wash., Tuesday morning with 5,000 sailors for a six- or seven-month deployment in the western Pacific.

In 2007 the carrier spent nearly eight months participating in wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. After returning to Puget Sound it underwent a $240 million upgrade.
