A Great Day to be an A's Fan!
There are two truths about the Oakland A's right now:
1.) The games are NEVER boring
2.) You can NEVER underestimate the team in the bottom of the 9th
We saw both of these factors at play in today's exciting game against the Baltimore Orioles. What a fantastic win for the team: a dramatic, walk-off finish, their 3rd win in row, a win in the series over the Orioles and a great showing for A's longtime broadcaster, Roy Steele.
Going into Game 3 against the men from Baltimore, we knew it'd be a special one for the sheer fact that today was Roy Steele's day at the ballpark. He's been the team's broadcaster since the A's arrived in Oakland back in 1968. If you've been to any game since, you can hear why John Miller complimented Roy as having the "Voice of God." The nickname has stuck around and so has Roy, earning himself the first ever bobblehead for a PA Announcer. Quite a distinction!
Roy kicked off the game by throwing out the first pitch to Chester Farrow, a long-time friend and fellow employee in Diamond Vision. From then on out, he and Dick Callahan announced the rest of the game. The A's sure are fortunate to have two dynamite voices backing them up!
Roy's presence must have brought the team some luck, as they pulled from behind and eeked out a fantastic win in the bottom of the 9th. Go Ryan Sweeney! Seven home games, three walk-off wins!
Coming tomorrow, a really cool piece of fan memorabilia… And finally, one last picture of Stomper and Finn, a young A's fan enjoying the beautiful day game and another special win from the Oakland A's!

On May 23rd when the Giants are in the house, a young man will be sitting in section 120 around row 32. His name is Dudley Spanger and he will be 100 and a half that weekend. He has been an A's fan forever and is sharp as a tack. I'll bet he can even tell you about Rollie Fingers' perfect game. I'm also in section 120 and will be looking for you when the boys get home next week to see if you can stop by to say Hi to Dudley.
Wow! Thanks so much for the heads up… I would absolutely love to meet Dudley and hear some of his stories. I'll try to swing by your section before the end of the 1st inning to make introductions and a plan. Thanks for reading my blog and suggesting the shout out! Take care and Let's Go Oakland! -kara

Hi all,
I need your help.
My son currently visits a homeschool kindergarten. I do not teach him at home, but we have an association of mothers where he is taught together with other children. But considering law it is a homeschool. Are we allowed to let my son go to the elementary school at the age of 4? Do they get problems? In the state schools it is not allowed. Can we just do it? At home nobody coud even control it. He began to read and write and does not want to go to the kindergarten any more.
Thanks for the answer.
Best regards
Homeschooing in Italy at age 4??
Find or post information on the legal aspects of homeschooling in your state.

Depends on the school, I'd guess - how good they are about placing children according to ability. There's nothing specific to your situation in the law as far as I know.
Thank you
for your answer. Meanwhile I talked to the school and they simply do not want him because they underestimate him, as he does not yet speak very much Italian (but learns quickly). So they do not want to discuss the subject anymore and stuff him into the kindergarden. grmpffffffff.
Thank you and best regards
Thank you and best regards

Are there other things he could learn in Kindergarten before he moves on? What will you do when he doesn't want to go to first grade anymore? Will you always make choices based on what he does/doesn't want to do? Don't take this wrong, but it sounds like you're letting him be the parent without the years of experience that you have.
You are right
but not in that kindergarten. It is simpy too small.
We will change now and go to a Montessori kindergarten where there are lots of possibilities for him (big garden, english lab etc.). Thanks for your help.

Man accused of robbing Lebanon store
Masked suspect with BB gun robs Lehman Street business
A 22-year-old man is accused of robbing a Lebanon store Thursday.
About 12:30 p.m. Thursday, officers were called to Linda's Corner Store in the 500 block of Lehman Street.
Joel Quinones faces charges of receiving stolen property, resisting arrest and robbery.
He walked into the store wearing a mask and holding a BB gun and demanded money, police said. Quinones left the business with an undetermined amount of cash and drove off in a Ford Explorer, they said.
An officer spotted the SUV and followed it to Prune and Guilford streets, where Quinones ran away and was taken into custody after a brief foot chase, police said.
The owner of the SUV said Quinones did not have permission to use the vehicle, police said.
Quinones is Lebanon County Correctional Facility with bail set at $20,000.

Once upon a time there was a man named Jesus who came to this jacked-up place to sacrifice his life for mankind.
You see, his Daddy determined a perfect sacrifice is what was necessary to redeem the lives of the rest of us. So, there he was. Resting on the cross, burdened with the sins of every nasty person on earth, asked by the masses, "How much do you love us?"
And he opened his arms t…h…i…s much… and he died.
It was a gift to all of us, but like with any coupon, you have to redeem it in order to reap the rewards. You know, that implies a choice. As in, a choice all of us have to make in order to experience what happened those more than 2,000 years ago.
Fast forward to today and we meet a boy named Barack who completely lied through his grape Kool-Aid stained lips and pearly whites to every child of God he met in order to win their vote. He told them he would go to church for a vote. And that he would talk about Jesus for a vote.
But… not so much. Just ask him, like this chic did.
Vodpod videos no longer available.
Seriously. Anyone catch that dazzling epiphany?
"I am a Christian by choice," Obama began, standing beneath a blazing sun, when asked why he is a Christian. "I came to my Christian faith later in life, and it was because the precepts of Jesus Christ spoke to me in terms of the kind of life that I would want to lead," Obama said.
"Being my brothers' and sisters' keeper. Treating others as they would treat me. And I think also understanding that, you know, that Jesus Christ dying for my sins spoke to the humility that we all have to have as human beings."
Man, that's deep. He may be calling on Jesus, but I call B.S.
Doesn't he understand this didn't fool a soul?! He is a Christian… wait for it… by choice. Oh. Oh. Wait. One other thing. He is also subject to… wait for it… by the forces of gravity.
Yes, sports fans. As much as Barack Obama is compared to the Messiah, he really can't walk on water, doesn't encounter stigmata or get offended when folk cuss using his name. Yet when confronted by a mild-mannered victims of his romancing swoons of deceit regarding his faith, he issues two half-baked verses and connected them to some universal thought that would make Carlton Pearson shout for joy.
"This is a country that is still predominantly Christian, but we have Jews, Muslims, Hindus, atheists, agnostics, Buddhists" and others, he said, adding that "their own path to grace is one that we have to revere and respect as much as our own, and that is part of what makes this country what it is."
Country? Yes. Kingdom of God… you know, heaven? No way.
Someone needs to get a memo to our betrothed president and let him know that Jesus Christ is not a politician. In fact, he could care less. So while Barack Obama is wailing on and on about how folk in this country are singing Kumbaya, he still isn't any closer to the sacrifice of Jesus Christ unless he stops farting around and gets real.
Choose that… then you're a Christian. And not one second sooner. That's no story, Mr. President. That's real life. Brother.

It's been about two weeks now since I got my 3DS XL and about a week since I got most of my games and I have to say I already amassed a backlog of 3DS games to play.
So far I've only been playing two games; Animal Crossing New Leaf and Project X Zone.
Project X Zone was actually the first game I got the system and it's the digital version. I put about 20 hours into it thus far and I am loving every minuite of it. I highly recommend this game to any rpg/strategy fan or anyone that loves the cast of characters
Animal Crossing New Leaf, been playing it casually, just like it's meant to be played and I am still learning it. Luckily I spent hundereds of hours on Animal Crossing Wild World for the DS, so I was able to adapt to this game just fine and it looks like I will be spending hundreds of hours in this game too. I don't know how long I spent on this game in total so far, but I'd average somewhere between 10-20 hours.
Then there's the backlog of games. I haven't even started these yet
Monster Hunter 3
Harvest Moon: A New Beginning
Spirit Camera
Heroes of Ruin
Resident Evil: Revelations
Castlevania: Mirror of Fate (digital version)
Kingdom Hearts 3D
Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time (digital version)
There are several other games I plan to purchase before the year ends. Two of the main ones are Pokemon X/Y and Legend of Zelda A link Between Worlds. I also plan to pick up Fire Emblem sometime soon too (maybe when I complete Project X Zone)

Ootoya's Homemade Tofu Salad is a Killer Deal for Times Square and the Flatiron
Japanese import Ootoya specializes in teishoku, set meals of meat or fish with sides like rice and steamed egg custards, but you need to start your meal somewhere, and the Homemade Tofu Salad with Special Bonito Flakes ($12) is a fine way to do so. Those bonito flakes are indeed special: long and tangled like thinly sliced prosciutto (and just as flavorful), they add a smoky, meaty baseline to the giant glass salad bowl.
The homemade tofu is special stuff, too—so soft it barely holds its shape, beautifully creamy and full of a mild soybean flavor, worth joining our New York fresh tofu short list. When taken with the bonito it becomes the Japanese version of prosciutto with ricotta.
There's greens as well, and a not too sweet wafu dressing with a measured slurp of soy sauce, and they do well to spread the tofu and bonito into a salad that three or four people can share easily. For 12 bucks in Times Square or the Flatiron, that's a deal worth noting.

Born and educated in New Zealand, Lynley is a graduate of the Elam School of Fine Arts in Auckland. Since winning the prestigious Esther Glen Award with Eve Sutton in 1975 for My Cat Likes to Hide in Boxes, Lynley has written more than thirty picture books. She has won many prizes for her work including Auckland University's Distinguished Alumni Award in 2009 and the prestigious Margaret Mahy Award in 1999. In 2002 Lynley was made a Distinguished Companion of the New Zealand Order of Merit for her services to children's literature. She holds an honorary doctorate from the University of Waikato. Lynley Dodd lives in Tauranga with her fiendish Burmese cat, Suu Kyi.
The Hairy Maclary series is an international classic and foreign language editions have been published in Sweden, Japan, Slovenia, Russia, Korea and China. In July 2013 Hairy Maclary celebrated his 30th birthday.
I find ideas everywhere. I tell children that I have 'ideas antennae' sticking out of my head, ready to collect anything that takes my fancy. Funny names and juicy words to roll around the tongue, things I see, things people say and do, Natural History programmes, items of news, family happenings etc. I keep an Ideas Book, which is a motley collection of bits; lists of words, scraps of drawing, newspaper cuttings, snatches of storyline and verse. All reminders for the day when they might prove useful. There is one scrap in the book, a rough sketch of a small hairy dog, under which I wrote:
'One morning at nine,
on the way to the park,
went Hairy Maclary
from Donaldson's Dairy'
This went on to become VERY useful.
I was an artist first and a writer second. Art was my first choice through childhood, art school, teaching, finally freelance illustrating. Picture books are a natural development – they provide the opportunity for plenty of illustrating.
Writing was something I had to learn once I began to have picture book ideas of my own after working with Eve Sutton on My Cat Likes to Hide in Boxes. Children ask me, would I write 'chapter' books? The answer to that is: I doubt it. I like the equal blend of word and picture in picture books and I'd hate to give up the excuse to do plenty of art work.
In a picture book it is very important that text and picture should fit together perfectly; in mood, style and sympathy – a partnership in which each enhances the other. Being my own illustrator helps – I don't have to argue with anyone about interpretation. I work on words and pictures together from the start. As I write I'm thinking about and planning layout and progression of pages as well as content and composition of each picture. Once story and pictures are planned, I make a small 'dummy' book to show what the finished book will be like, with everything in place. Then I paint the pictures, full size.
I have been writing and illustrating now for forty years. It all began with the collaboration with Eve Sutton (a cousin by marriage) on My Cat Likes to Hide in Boxes. The idea for that book came from the then Dodd family cat, Wooskit, who, like all cats, liked to hide in boxes, supermarket bags, cupboards and hidey-holes of all kinds. My Cat Likes to Hide in Boxes was published in 1973. Eve went on to write for older children and because my own two children were picture book 'consumers' at that stage, I became very interested in them too and began to have lots of ideas of my own. My first solo book was The Nickle Nackle Tree, published in 1976 and I've worked solo ever since.
I usually start by browsing through my ideas book. If I'm lucky, one of the scraps will start off the creative juices and once I have begun in earnest, it takes me about six months altogether to write and illustrate the book. Added to that is the time needed for publishing and printing, so it's about a year from start to publication day.
I live with my Burmese cat Suu Kyi in Tauranga,
New Zealand. My house is out in the country in a peaceful spot, surrounded by trees and birds. The garden is full of hedgehogs – the inspiration for Hedgehog Howdedo. I work at a large desk in a sunny room upstairs. Unfortunately the heat can be a problem in summer – it dries my watercolour paints too quickly and I stick to everything in sight! My desk is usually a glorious muddle, with piles of letters, paper, notes to myself, calendar, lamp, boxes of art materials, diaries, pens, brushes, paperweights holding everything down… and so on.
Apart from the desk, there are two bookcases overflowing with books and knick-knacks, a wastepaper basket always needing emptying, copy machine, filing cabinets and an easel, and now that Hairy Maclary and Friends have turned into merchandising as well, Hairy Maclary, Muffin McLay and Slinky Malinki sit on top of the filing cabinet while piles of other Hairy Maclary products cascade from every surface. If I didn't have frequent tidying sessions, I'd disappear altogether! The cat loves to visit and is liable to steal my pens and chew holes in Important Documents.
I really enjoyed doing the illustrating for books like Find Me a Tiger, The Other Ark, Sniff! Snuff! Snap! and The Dudgeon is Coming because there was more scope for imagination in the different animals and settings, as well as things like animal camouflage to explore. However Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy is pretty special to me because it is the first of a long series and because it seemed almost to write itself. NOT something that usually happens to me!
I'm afraid not. He is a mixture of terriers I've known, with rather thin legs and small, sharp triangles for ears. An imaginary dog. And no, I don't have a dog now – although I did once have a long-haired Schnitzel von Krumm.
There are many I admire, but perhaps Dr Seuss and Quentin Blake are two of my favourite author/illustrators, Dr Seuss because I loved his books as a child and Quentin Blake because of his humour and very clever art work.

The SPECTROMAXx stationary metal analyzer is used mainly for material testing in foundries and for incoming and outgoing inspections in the metal industry around the world. It determines all of the elements used in the metal industry, including metal analysis of carbon, phosphorous, sulfur and nitrogen.
The seventh generation of the SPECTROMAXx arc spark OES metal analyzer comes with drastically reduced operating costs, significantly shorter measuring times and less maintenance requirements – while still offering exceptional precision and stability. And when it comes to productivity, the new SPECTROMAXx sets the benchmark.
It features truly intuitive operation, with the use of toolbar buttons, a user management system, and a clear separation of operation from programming of the instrument. The measurement is controlled with clear symbols and toolbar buttons. Once a workflow has been started, only the functions that are logical at any point in time along the way are active in the control software – all other commands are hidden. With the new application profiles, customer specific information can be set before beginning operation, relieving laboratory technicians of administrative activities.
The SPECTROMAXx arc/spark OES metal analyzer independently monitors all operating parameters. It dynamically determines the measurement time required based on the given sample properties and even shows when the spark stand needs to be cleaned depending on the type of samples being examined. The optional AMECARE machine-to-machine (M2M) support allows proactive alerts, backed up by direct connection with a remote SPECTRO service expert's PC.
For metal analysis industry wide, SPECTROMAXx can't be beaten.

9. Information regarding Notes on our e-mail newsletter
(a) With the following information, we would like to inform you about the content of our newsletter, the subscription and dispatch procedures as well as your rights of objection. We will only send newsletters as e-mails with advertising information (hereinafter referred to as "newsletter") with the explicit consent of the recipient or if we are legally authorized to do so. Insofar as the content of the newsletter has specifically been described during the subscription to said newsletter, it is decisive for the consent provided by the user. Our newsletters also contain information about our products, offers, promotions and our company.
(b) To subscribe to our newsletter, all you have to do is provide your e-mail address. The subscription is carried out in a so-called double opt-in process. This means that once you subscribe, you will receive an e-mail asking you to confirm your subscription. This confirmation is required so that nobody can subscribe to our newsletters with third-party e-mail addresses.
(c) The subscriptions to our newsletter are protocolled in order to be able to prove the subscription process in accordance with the legal requirements. This includes recording the time of subscription and confirmation, as well as the IP address used for the subscription. Changes to your data stored at MailChimp are also logged.
(d) The newsletter is sent via "MailChimp", a newsletter distribution platform of the US provider Rocket Science Group, LLC, 675 Ponce De Leon Ave NE #5000, Atlanta, GA 30308, USA. You can view the privacy policy of the shipping service provider here: https://mailchimp.com/legal/privacy/. The Rocket Science Group LLC d/b/a MailChimp is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement and thus offers a guarantee of compliance with the European data protection level (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000TO6hAAG&status=Active).
Furthermore, according to its own information, the shipping service provider may use this data in pseudonymous form, i.e. without allocation to a user, to optimize or improve its own services, e.g. for the technical optimization of the shipping and display of the newsletter or for statistical purposes, in order to determine from which countries the recipients come. However, the dispatch service provider does not use the data of our newsletter recipients to write to them itself or pass them on to third parties.
(e) To subscribe to the newsletter, it is sufficient to provide your e-mail address.
(f) The newsletters contain a so-called "web-beacon", i.e. a pixel-sized file that is retrieved from the MailChimp server when the newsletter is opened. Within the scope of this retrieval, technical information such as information about the browser and your system, as well as your IP address and time of retrieval are first collected. This information is used to technically improve the services on the basis of the technical data or the target groups and their reading behavior on the basis of their retrieval locations (which can be determined with the help of the IP address) or access times. The statistical surveys also include determining whether the newsletters are opened, when they are opened and which links are clicked. For technical reasons, this information can be assigned to the individual newsletter recipients. However, it is neither our nor Mail Chimp's aim to observe individual users. The evaluations serve us much more to recognize the reading habits of our users and to adapt our contents to them or to send different contents according to the interests of our users.
(g) Consent to the dispatch of the newsletter is given on the basis of your consent pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a) and Art. 7 GDPR as well as § 7 Para. 2 No. 3 and Para. 3 UWG. The use of the MailChimp dispatch service provider, the performance of statistical surveys and analyses as well as the logging of the registration procedure are carried out on the basis of our legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our interest is directed towards the use of a user-friendly and secure newsletter system that serves both our business interests and the expectations of the users.
(h) You can cancel the receipt of our newsletter at any time, i.e. revoke your consent. The revocation of your consent does not affect the legality of the newsletter sent on the basis of your consent until you revoke your consent. You will find a link to cancel the newsletter at the end of each newsletter. When you unsubscribe from the newsletter, your personal data will be deleted, unless their storage is legally required or justified, in which case their processing will only be limited to these exceptional purposes. In particular, we may
We will store your deleted e-mail addresses for up to three years on the basis of our legitimate interests in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR before we delete them for the purpose of sending you newsletters in order to be able to prove that you have previously given your consent. The processing of this data is limited to the purpose of a possible defense against claims. An individual request for deletion is possible at any time, provided that the former existence of consent is confirmed at the same time.
10. Our presence in social media
(a) We also maintain a company presence on social media sites such as Facebook and Instagram, which we link to via our website. This occurs on the basis of our legitimate interests in order to provide information on our offerings on these sites and to communicate with active customers, interested parties and users there. The legal basis is Article 6 (1) lit. f) GDPR. When accessing the respective social media networks or platforms, the terms and conditions and the data handling policies of the respective provider apply, upon which we have no influence whatsoever. This means that the data may be handled outside of the European Union.
(b) When you use a social network, your data is usually processed for market research and advertising purposes. The user behavior and the interests of the users resulting thereof can be used to create usage profiles. The usage profiles in turn can be used, for example, to place advertisements within or outside of the platforms, which presumably correspond to the interests of the user. Cookies that save the usage behavior and the interests of the user are generally stored on the computers of the users for these purposes. Furthermore, data may also be stored in the usage profiles independent of the devices used by the user (especially if the user is a member of the respective platform and is logged in).
(c) For a detailed overview of the respective data processing and the opt-out options, please refer to the following links to access information provided by the provider.

Can Sponsored Stories Stop Facebook's Slide?By CIOinsight
Can Facebook, a mere 8 years old on the calendar but a middle-ager in Internet time, continue to create new products that will become effective revenue-generators in the future?
That's exactly what nervous investors are wondering, especially after seeing the company's first quarterly earnings report last week and watching their stock price zoom downhill like a kid in a water slide. The company's stock, which started selling publicly on May 18 at $38, closed July 30 at $23.15 and has dropped 12 percent in the last couple of sessions since the Menlo Park, Calif.-based company's first earnings report on July 26.
One of these new products, sponsored stories -- which resemble regular news or magazine-type articles but are placed by advertisers -- aren't new at all to the ad business but are indeed a new addition to Facebook's catalog.
Co-founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg says he has no doubt these new-gen ads will work. So does Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg. A fair number of industry analysts think the same thing, but not everybody is convinced.
Last week, during his first earnings conference call to analysts, Zuckerberg said these ads are already generating about $1 million per day in revenue in limited testing. With that kind of potential income, it's no wonder Facebook is planning to add these to daily streams on members' news feeds and status updates. Who knows how many Facebook users will see each day? Dozens, or perhaps many more.
How Sponsored Stories Work
Sponsored stories look similar to regular news feed articles you get from friends, but they highlight a business or person "so there's a better chance you'll see them," Zuckerberg said. So if Justin Bieber, for example, wanted to get more visibility -- as if he needed any more -- you might see a photo of him and his name in boldface, for example, in your news feed. Or you might see a link to tickets for his next concert in your area.
The longer-term strategy of these sponsored stories is that they give Facebook a new way to serve up ads to users with smartphones and tablet PCs, where regular display ads don't work as well. It's well known that Facebook needs to move beyond Web pages on desktops and into these smaller devices.
On its quarterly earnings call, the company reported that 543 million of its monthly users now use mobile devices -- a whopping 67 percent increase from a year ago. Several thousand Facebook users just moved to smartphones while you are reading this sentence.
"The dilemma for Facebook now is the more successful sponsored stories are in terms of driving their revenues, the more intrusive they will be into the user experience," Shane Ginsberg, senior vice president of Corporate Development for San Francisco-based digital marketing agency Organic, told the San Francisco Chronicle.
Ginsberg's agency works with large-scale advertisers such as Procter & Gamble, Pepsi and Wal-mart. He said he has seen good results so far with limited numbers of sponsored stories. But it's way too early to tell how effective they might be as they grow in number.
One must also take into account that these are not being published on social networks and mobile devices, where users generally have shorter attention spans.
"The more successful this gets, especially on mobile platforms, the worse it might become for users," Ginsberg said. "It's really hard (for Facebook), because this is the one area they can credibly claim they have a mobile story. And that's central to Facebook's survival."

I'm working on a project where a Raspberry PI must have up to 260 outputs. So I was looking for a GPIO expander and found this chip: https://www.adafruit.com/product/732 but it only supports upto 128 I/O pins using 8 unique addresses (8 chips). Any suggestions to achieve such thing?
Thanks in advance.

I think this idea that Jacqi Stevens wrote about in her blog is a great way to get to know other genealogical society members. However it could also easily be used in almost any group setting.
Jacqi, of the "A Family Tapestry" blog wrote this: Three Things You Might Not Know About Me. I can see so many situations wehre this could be fun, and helpful.
Also, I like the idea of an end-of-year sharing about ancestors with "Bring Your Ancestor to Dinner."
Thank you very much, Jacqi.

Pre-Medical Studies
In a fallen world in which physical pain and suffering are everyday realities for many, the healing professions provide an avenue of faithful service in the name of the Healer and Redeemer of all things. Covenant provides those called to medicine with essential groundwork for the heart and mind.
Covenant's curriculum as a whole is designed to challenge students to develop a biblically grounded framework for thought and action so that they might faithfully understand and pursue God's callings in every aspect of life. Demanding courses in a student's major discipline are thus combined with an extensive set of core requirements that provide breadth beyond the chosen major and a rich context for studies in the major. Students who take full advantage of a Covenant education will emerge from their studies energized and equipped to pursue fruitful and faithful callings before God. They will be equipped with the boldness that comes from the realization of a firmly grounded biblical faith and with a humility that is fitting for fallen creatures redeemed by grace to work out redemption in a fallen world. They will be energized by an enlarged vision of the reach of Christ's rule into all aspects of life and by a confidence rooted in the power and promises of God to work in and through individual believers as He accomplishes His purposes in the world in Christ.
Medical schools are seeking students who are much more than narrowly trained technicians. They are looking for service-minded individuals of integrity, who are well developed as whole persons and well informed about the world at large. They want to recruit students who are able to think critically and systematically, who have human relational skills and are well prepared in the foundational aspects of the biological and physical sciences. Covenant's emphases on theological and spiritual development, on the liberal arts, and on challenging coursework make Covenant an ideal environment for premedical education.
Although a science major is not a premedical requirement, most premedical students major in a scientific discipline. Covenant offers rigorous majors in each of the disciplines in which medical schools specify course prerequisites in the sciences. The faculty members in the sciences have extensive research and teaching experience in their disciplines. They are theologically committed to the principle that scientific study is not to be seen as an impediment to the faith or as a substitute for faith or as an area of human activity isolated from faith. Science is never a neutral enterprise and they believe that the science one does reflects in various ways the underlying worldview commitments of the scientist and his or her cultural context. For Christians, scientific study should emerge naturally from our commitment to the Creator/Redeemer Lord and our faith in Him should be integral to our work in the sciences.

By Ray Glier – special to CNN
January 25, 2013
One moment, Garrett Gilkey was standing on his big stage. The next moment, he was being plowed under it.
There was a small crater in the turf where the 314-pound Gilkey tried to dig in his cleats and stop the charge of John Jenkins, a 359-pound defensive tackle from the University of Georgia. Gilkey is an offensive lineman from Chadron State, an outpost in northwest Nebraska, and NFL scouts were gathered around to see if the player from a small Division II school could block a player from a Goliath of college football, a school from the mighty Southeastern Conference.
Jenkins thrust his powerful claws straight into Gilkey's chest and it was an instant mismatch. Big beat little, for the moment.
It was a one-on-one drill at a practice for the Senior Bowl, a college football all-star game, which is the next step in the 2013 NFL draft process. Gilkey was shoved back by Jenkins and left standing on a white towel, which was the imaginary quarterback Gilkey was supposed to protect. This would have been a sack in a real game, the quarterback in a heap at the feet of Jenkins, and Gilkey humiliated.
Gilkey, a small-college nobody, did not pick up that white towel and start waving it as a flag of surrender.
He wasn't going to be defined by one stinking play.
The next snap in the one-on-one drill with Jenkins, Gilkey quick-setted Jenkins, which means he hit him first. If the big guy from Georgia was going to bull rush Gilkey in a drill with a helmet and no pads where coaches want to see players work with their hands, not power, Gilkey would counter with his own shifty move. He didn't take a step back to pass protect, he attacked Jenkins with a block.
"Punched him right in the face mask," said Gilkey, whose long blond hair flowed out of the back of his helmet. Then he smiled.
"I'm small school, he's big school. There might have been a few moments of awe because of the stage we're on here, being here in front of a lot of scouts, but after that first hit, it's just football. You have to show something here, some competitiveness. You don't let people intimidate you because you are from a small school."
Jenkins was with Gilkey on every point. "I encourage him and others to come on, let's go, if they feel they have to make a name for themselves against me," Jenkins said. "I know he's on the big stage, but I've got to eat same as he's got to eat."
It was like that all week here at the Senior Bowl workouts. There are 700 NFL personnel studying 106 college players up close in advance of the April 25-27 draft. It is not only North vs. South in the game, but it is big school vs. small school, big name vs. no name. They will play the game at 4 p.m. ET on Saturday, but the skirmishes Monday through Friday at the practices are the real prize here for scouts and NFL draft wonks.
Players like Georgia's Jenkins are on television throughout the fall. They have less of a task getting space on stage at a prestigious game like the Senior Bowl. Gilkey, who is 6-foot-5, 314 pounds, has to depend more on the keen eye of scouts. A tape of a Chadron State game was sent to Phil Savage, the Senior Bowl executive director, who is responsible for issuing invitations and making sure legitimate NFL prospects are in the game. Savage watched the tape and saw Gilkey keeping his feet during a driving snowstorm on a slick field and still protecting the quarterback.
Brandon Williams, a 341-pound defensive tackle from Missouri Southern, sent a tape showing him walking on his hands displaying spectacular upper body strength. Savage invited Williams, too. It is a little gimmicky, but you do what you have to do. The Senior Bowl is a melting pot of talent. Eric Fisher, an offensive lineman from Central Michigan, is playing on the same team as Denard Robinson, the star quarterback from Michigan, who is here as a wide receiver/kick returner.
Once here, small school can make plays over big school. Leon McFadden, a cornerback from San Diego State, dashed in front of the Georgia wide receiver Tavarres King to make a one-handed interception.
"When you make a play like that, you flush it, forget about it, and keep it rolling and show scouts you can do that play after play," McFadden said. "Don't make one play out here and think it's enough."
McFadden thought back to his interception and smiled wide. "Anybody from anywhere can play this game," he said.
He's right about that. Margus Hunt is from Estonia. He is 6-foot-8, 277 pounds and is the former junior world record holder in the discus. Hunt played college football at Southern Methodist and is turning heads here with "freakish" athletic ability.
Ezekiel Ansah is a 6-foot-5, 274-pound defensive end from Brigham Young, by way of Ghana. He played college football just 2½ seasons and is projected as a high-round pick in the draft.
There are two scouting services for NFL teams, Blesto and National Football Scouting, who scour the outposts, those small schools, and file reports for 28 NFL teams (four teams do not subscribe to the services). NFL teams have their own scouts who endure plenty of windshield time driving to small schools spread around the country to get a peek at a player. When word of a 314-pound lineman with quick feet spread, NFL teams flocked to Chadron, Nebraska, to see Gilkey. Savage said NFL scouts will try to stay mum on a prospect from a small school to keep teams off the scent.
"I sent a questionnaire out with Gilkey's name on it, along with some other names, and asked whether these players should be invited and all the scouts said yes, yes, yes to the others and no to Gilkey," said Savage, a former scout and general manager. "I knew something was up when they all said no. They were trying to sit on him. I got some tape, looked at him, and invited him."
There are some things that have nothing to do with skill that NFL scouts look for in a prospect, be they from big schools or little schools.
"I like to see if they get along," said Ted Thompson, the general manager of the Green Bay Packers. "It's an indication that they like to play the game. Most of the good ones like the whole process, the time in the locker room, and the practices.
"This game is a lot more than playing Saturdays and Sundays. You look at a guy and you say 'Is he a good, old-fashioned country ballplayer, or not?'"
If Savage did his work in selecting these teams — and most scouts think he did with the help of all his NFL contacts — 90 to 95 of the 106 players at the Senior Bowl will be drafted in the seven rounds. The other 10 to 16 players will be part of "college free agency." They can sign with any team as "undrafted free agents." Teams have approximately $75,000 in bonus money to use to invite undrafted players to their preseason camps.
As Garrett Gilkey and others will prove, the NFL welcome mat is wide and wide open. The small-school player can walk through the same door as the big-school player.

Learn the differences between qualitative data and quantitative data
Quantitative and qualitative research are complementary methods that you can combine in your surveys to get results that are both wide-reaching and deep.
Simply put, quantitative data gets you the numbers to prove the broad general points of your research. Qualitative data brings you the details and the depth to understand their full implications.
To get the best results from these methods in your surveys, it's important that you understand the differences between them. Let's have a look.
Quantitative data is designed to collect cold, hard facts. Numbers. Quantitative data is structured and statistical. It provides support when you need to draw general conclusions from your research.
Qualitative data collects information that seeks to describe a topic more than measure it. Think of impressions, opinions, and views. A qualitative survey is less structured: It seeks to delve deep into the topic at hand to gain information about people's motivations, thinking, and attitudes. While this brings depth of understanding to your research questions, it also makes the results harder to analyze.
Quantitative data can help you see the big picture. Qualitative data adds the details and can also give a human voice to your survey results.
Let's see how to use each method in a research project.
These two research methods don't conflict with each other. They actually work much better as a team. In a world of Big Data, there's a wealth of statistics and figures that form the strong foundation on which your decisions can rest. But that foundation is incomplete without the information collected from real people that gives the numbers meaning.
So how do you put these two forms of research together? Qualitative research is almost always the starting point when you seek to discover new problems and opportunities–which will help you do deeper research later. Quantitative data will give you measurements to confirm each problem or opportunity and understand it.
How about an example?
Let's say you held a conference and wanted feedback from your attendees. You can probably already measure several things with quantitative research, such as attendance rate, overall satisfaction, quality of speakers, value of information given, etc. All these questions can be given in a closed-ended and measurable way.
But you also may want to provide a few open-ended, qualitative research questions to find out what you may have overlooked. You could use questions like:
If you discover any common themes through these qualitative questions, you can decide to research them more in depth, make changes to your next event, and make sure to add quantitative questions about these topics after the next conference.
For example, let's say several attendees said that their least favorite thing about the conference was the difficult-to-reach location. Next time, your survey might ask quantitative questions like how satisfied people were with the location, or let respondents choose from a list of potential sites they would prefer.
A good way of recognizing when you want to switch from one method to the other is to look at your open-ended questions and ask yourself why you are using them.
For example, if you asked: "What do you think of our ice cream prices?", people would give you feedback in their own words and you will probably get some out-of-the-box answers.
If that's not what you're looking for, you should consider using an easily quantifiable response. For example:
Relative to our competitors, do you think our ice cream prices are:
This kind of question will give your survey respondents clarity and in turn it will provide you with consistent data that is easy to analyze.
There are many methods you can use to conduct qualitative research that will get you richly detailed information on your topic of interest.
However, this open-ended method of research does not always lend itself to bringing you the most accurate results to big questions. And analyzing the results is hard because people will use different words and phrases to describe their points of view, and may not even talk about the same things if they find space to roam with their responses.
In some cases, it may be more effective to go 'full quantitative' with your questions.
To avoid confusing your respondents, you may want to eschew questions like, "What do you think about our internet service?" Instead you could ask a closed-ended, quantitative question like in the following example.
The internet service is reliable:
Survey respondents don't always have the patience to reflect on what they are being asked and write long responses that accurately express their views. It's much faster to choose one of several pre-loaded options in a questionnaire. Using quantitative questions helps you get more questions in your survey and more responses out of it.
Even word responses in closed-ended questionnaires can be assigned numerical values that you can later convert into indicators and graphs. This means that the overall quality of the data is better. Remember that the most accurate data leads you to the best possible decisions.
Our customer satisfaction survey template includes some good examples of how qualitative and quantitative questions can work together to provide you a complete view of how your business is doing.
How long have you been a customer of our company?
How likely are you to purchase any of our products again?
When you make a mistake, how often does your supervisor respond constructively?
Now that you know the definition of qualitative and quantitative data and the differences between these two research methods, you can better understand how to use them together. You can put them to work for you in your next project with one of our survey templates written by experts.

MOUNTAIN VIEW — Hidden within a nondescript building here is a highly secret Symantec facility protected by the sort of measures found in nuclear missile silos.
Dubbed "the vault" by some employees, the bunkerlike operation bristles with guards, sensors, iris- and fingerprint-reading locks, and a room containing the most privileged data deep within its labyrinthine confines to which only five people have the combination. All that is to ensure no one can sneak in and steal the information Symantec maintains to certify that thousands of widely used websites are legitimate, and that whatever is sent to and from the sites is encrypted against cyberattacks.
Although company officials say hackers frequently try to break into their computer network, they say it has never been breached. And they are so proud of its physical protections, they recently let this newspaper tour the hush-hush complex, on condition its exact location not be revealed.
While Symantec and some other prominent "certificate authorities" take security seriously, experts say, others in the business are far less careful. Citing several recent incidents, these experts contend it's often easy for hackers to compromise weak points in the system and steal credit card numbers, bank account filings, emails or other personal records.
"Right now the whole certificate-authority model is completely broken, but at the same time we have no valid alternative," said Jeremiah Grossman, founder of Santa Clara-based WhiteHat Security. "It's going to take a disruption — something really bad will have to happen — and then we'll fix it."
According to research firm Netcraft, the Internet has more than 670 million websites, the vast majority with addresses beginning with HTTP — for hypertext transfer protocol — which experts say often can be easily hacked. But about 2 million sites for banks, retailers and others boast HTTPS addresses. That "S" means a certificate authority, like Symantec, has verified their operators' identity and that the information flowing in and out of the sites is encrypted. The sites bear a padlock icon in their addresses, some of which are green to indicate they've undergone additional verification.
However, some of these Web destinations aren't as secure as they seem to be. By breaking into certificate authorities and issuing fake certificates, hackers can decrypt and steal information sent to and from these sites.
In 2011, when prominent Dutch certificate authority DigiNotar was hacked, an investigation determined about 300,000 Iranian Gmail accounts were accessed. The attack — widely believed to have been launched by the Iranian government to monitor dissidents — also created havoc in the Netherlands. Its citizens were warned to avoid online transactions and to correspond with the government only via paper, because Dutch authorities feared their own websites might not be safe.
As the world's biggest certificate authority, Symantec strives to avoid being similarly victimized. While it most fears cyberattacks, it also emphasizes the physical security of its location. Surveillance cameras, motion sensors and reinforced walls protect the Mountain View center.
Yet many experts say security procedures vary widely at other certificate authorities — whose numbers worldwide are estimated at anywhere from 65 to well over 100 — and that many of them aren't nearly as cautious. No single body polices them. And the standards that industry groups have proposed haven't been universally adopted, which has contributed to confusion about how certificate authorities operate.
"It is an extremely complicated, obscure bureaucracy that only a handful of experts on the planet understand," said Peter Eckersley of the Electronic Frontier Foundation.
One troubling mystery is how often certificate authorities get hacked, which is particularly difficult to determine with operations based overseas, said Adam Langley, a senior staff software engineer at Google (GOOG).
Consequently, "there may be lots of small targeted attacks that we don't know about," he said, adding, "the general system is rather fragile."
Studies suggest many sites certified as safe may not be.
Recommendations for improving the system range from making more information about certifications public to requiring every site to have HTTPS encryption. But during a recent federal workshop on the issue, researchers with the International Computer Science Institute in Berkeley concluded, "There is no real solution in sight."
Others hope they are wrong.
"All this stuff is really critical in ensuring that e-commerce continues to be viable, so we all feel safe shopping on the Internet," said Paul Meijer, senior director of Symantec's secret center. "That just benefits everybody."

Certifying safe sites
The vast majority of the more-than 670 million Internet sites have addresses that begin with HTTP — for hypertext transfer protocol — which experts say often can be easily hacked.
About 2 million sites operated by banks, retailers and others boast HTTPS addresses. The "S" means a certificate authority has verified the identity of the sites' operators and that information flowing to and from the sites is encrypted.
A padlock icon appears in their addresses, some of which are green to indicate they've undergone additional verification.
But experts say security precautions vary among the scores of certificate authorities around the world, making it possible for hackers to sometimes decrypt and steal information sent to and from HTTPS sites.

Transfer Credit
5340.1 General Policy
Students may transfer courses (credits) completed at another academic institution to their Wright State academic record and apply those courses toward the requirements of graduate degree and certificate programs. The courses must have prior approval from the Wright State program accepting the transferred credits and must have been completed at an appropriately accredited academic institution or at an academic institution with high academic standards deemed appropriate and acceptable by the Wright State academic program accepting the transferred credits. The sources of such transferred credits may include any military institution or military-related experience deemed equivalent to graduate course credit by the American Council of Education in its Guide to the Evaluation of Educational Experiences in the Armed Services, provided that the graduate program officials in question agree that such credits meet the requirements of that particular degree program.
5340.2 Conditions
A student may transfer graduate credit if all of the following conditions are met:
- The student's advisor reviews the transfer of credit request and recommends that the course(s) be accepted for transfer credit.
- The student was admitted and enrolled as a graduate student at the institution where the graduate credit was completed. In addition, the student must be or have been in good standing at that institution.
- The graduate credit to be transferred is within the seven year time limit for completing a master's degree, the five year limit for certificate programs, or the ten year time limit for doctoral programs. Graduate Credit transferred toward a program's elective credit requirement does not have to meet the seven or ten year time limit.
- The amount of credit to be transferred does not exceed 50% of that required by the particular degree the student is pursuing. For graduate certificates, students may transfer in no more than 33% of the credit hours required for the certificate, with the proviso that a minimum of 9 semester credit hours for that certificate must be taken at Wright State. An exception is made for civil servants and military personnel employed by Wright Patterson Air Force Base who have been transferred to the base within the previous three years, who have no limit to the amount of graduate credit they may transfer. All such transfer credit is subject to all other requirements of this policy.
- The student has a Program of Study on file in the Graduate School. The Program of Study must clearly reflect the student's required courses (professional, core, advanced, introductory, general, etc.) and elective courses. Transfer courses do not have to be placed on the Program of Study until the courses have been approved by the Graduate School. The grade for the credit is "B" or better, or equivalent as determined by the School of Graduate Studies. The Graduate School may require additional information from the student and/or the institution in order to determine grade equivalency.
- An official transcript reflecting the credit to be transferred is on file in the Graduate School.
- The credit to be transferred has not been applied toward an awarded degree, except in case where the student is pursuing a BS/MS combined degree program as described in UP# 5330.
- The student is actively pursuing a graduate degree program at Wright State.
- The transfer of credit request is approved by the Graduate School.
5340.3 Residency Requirement
At least 50% of the credit hours must be completed at Wright State and be within the seven-year time limit. All required (other than elective) program course requirements must be completed within the seven-year time limit.
5340.4 Advisor Approval
A student wishing to transfer credit should consult with his or her program advisor. If the advisor approves the courses for transfer credit and the courses meet all of the Graduate School requirements, then the advisor should request in writing that the Graduate School have the courses posted on the student's academic record. The request should indicate the courses and number of hours to be transferred (the hours to be transferred may be less but cannot exceed the number of hours the student earned for the course(s)).
5340.5 Non-degree credit
Graduate courses completed at Wright State in non-degree status and later applied toward degree requirements are not considered as transfer credit from outside the University. Should students be accepted into degree status, a maximum of one-half (50%) of the graduate hours required for completion of degree requirements may consist of applicable graduate hours completed in non-degree status.
