I'm running a series of posts about a survey I did to see how conference attendees organize the information and materials they bring home with them. Please be sure to read the previous posts in the series:
- Post 1 (Survey Results Overview)
- Post 2 (Questions 1 & 2/Attendance & Note-taking)
- Post 3 (Questions 3 & 4/Vendors & Swag)
- Post 4 (Question 5/How Do You Organize Materials?)
In this post, I'll share the responses to questions about purchasing conference notes/syllabi on CD and/or thumbdrive and recordings of sessions.
The majority of respondents (64 out of 85) said they do not purchase conference handouts on CD or thumbdrive when this option is available. Five respondents said they purchase electronic handouts in addition to picking up printed copies of these materials at the conference. Four said they purchase the materials in electronic form in lieu of printed copies. Twelve respondents said they sometimes purchase conference materials in electronic form.
There was a smattering of comments in response to this question. Several folks said they have never had the option of purchasing such materials before. A couple respondents said they wouldn't pay for these, but would take advantage of them if they were offered for free. One respondent said that such materials are not useful because they become separated from papers and other material due to the difference in format.
On the question of purchasing recorded sessions after conferences, there was a similar breakdown of responses. Sixty-one respondents said they do not purchase these, three said they do and 21 said they sometimes do.
Among the comments for this question, a couple of folks said they never re-listen to the recordings or fear that they wouldn't take the time to do so and therefore don't purchase them.
Of those who do purchase session recordings, their reasons for doing so varied. One respondent does it for sessions they couldn't attend. Another said recordings are a useful resource when you want to capture things that are hard to get down in one's notes, like longer anecdotes. Still another respondent said she sometimes purchases sessions so she can play short segments in classes that she teaches (hopefully with the permission of the speaker/conference first).
I found this comment to be interesting: "I'm now frequently recording and taking quick photos of various slides so that I have immediate access to the information. It continues to disappoint me that many conference keynoters do not allow formal or informal recordings."
I can see both sides. The speaker wants to protect their material and the listener wants to be able to retain it in the format most useful to them. For those who are auditory learners, I'm sure it's frustrating not to have recordings to refer back to.
My next post will cover answers to Question 8 of the survey: What would help you make better use of your conference materials when you get home? Read on at the links below:

Is the light rail dead in Detroit?
Mayor says city is moving forward on new regional bus system
DETROIT – Detroit Mayor Dave Bing said the city is moving forward with state and federal funding to install a regional high-speed bus system.
Bing said the idea to have a rail system from up Woodward Avenue didn't address the problem of regional transportation.
He said the new bus system will rely on Detroit Department of Transportation and suburban SMART buses to the 60 percent of people who live in Detroit but work outside of it to their jobs.
"I think the mistake too many people will make is that Detroit is against the suburbs. It's not about that at all. We are improving regional transportation," Bing said. "Detroiters as well as suburbanite partners will benefit from this."
The mayor said the city is not shutting down the light rail idea, which has private investors. But the focus is moving forward with the bus system.
"When you've got close to 60% of your employees in the city, got jobs outside the city, they need transportation to where the jobs are. So I think this really presents an opportunity for regional cooperation," Bing said.
Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., disagrees with the Mayor's decision and released this statement today: "I continue to believe that a world-class transit system that includes light rail along the Woodward Avenue corridor can deliver significant economic benefits to Detroit and the region. I support the efforts of private investors to preserve the viability of the light rail project."

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – President Barack Obama will propose a "grand bargain for middle-class jobs" on Tuesday that would cut the U.S. corporate tax rate and use billions in revenues generated by a business tax overhaul to fund projects aimed at creating jobs.His goal, to be outlined in a speech at an Amazon.com Inc facility in Chattanooga, Tennessee, is to break through congressional gridlock by trying to find a formula that satisfies both Republicans and Democrats.
Efforts to reach a bipartisan "grand bargain" on deficit reduction have been at an impasse for months. Senior administration officials say Obama is not giving up on a big deficit-cutting package, but given that no agreement appears on the horizon so far, he is offering a new idea to try to follow through on his 2012 re-election campaign promises to help the middle class.
"As part of his efforts to focus Washington on the middle class, today in Tennessee the president will call on Washington to work on a grand bargain focused on middle-class jobs by pairing reform of the business tax code with a significant investment in middle-class jobs," Obama senior adviser Dan Pfeiffer said.
Obama wants to cut the corporate tax rate of 35 per cent down to 28 per cent and give manufacturers a preferred rate of 25 per cent. He also wants a minimum tax on foreign earnings as a tool against corporate tax evasion and increased use of tax havens.
The new twist is that in exchange for his support for a corporate tax reduction, he wants money generated by the tax overhaul to be used on a mix of proposals such as funding infrastructure projects like repairing roads and bridges, improving education at community colleges, and promoting manufacturing, senior administration officials said.
Obama's proposal would generate a one-time source of revenue, for example, by reforming depreciation or putting a fee on accumulated foreign earnings.
Officials gave no specific figure on how much money would be raised. But Obama in his State of the Union speech in February called for $50 billion for infrastructure spending.
The White House is hopeful that the idea will gain some traction in the U.S. Congress because Republicans want corporate tax reform and Democrats want spending for infrastructure. This offers something for both sides, administration officials said.
Officials said they recognise, however, that the climate is difficult in Congress with Republicans adamantly refusing anything that is seen as increasing spending and Democrats in no mood to cut taxes and get nothing for it.
Obama's speech in Chattanooga is the latest in a series of speeches aimed at making good on his promises to boost the U.S. economy in ways that helps the middle class. And he is looking to breathe new life into his second term, which has so far found successes to be fleeting.

My First "Pop"
This was awhile ago, but I'll give it my best shot at remembering all the details.
During the same appointment as my daith at Trendsetters (early February, 2007), I had also planned on getting an outer conch piercing. I'm pretty sure Trendsetters almost never uses captive bead rings for cartilage piercings (except for daiths, apparently), as when I explain what I wanted (a ring on the edge of my outer conch, not a helix though), they said "Alright, we'll put in a curved barbell". I understand that this lowers the amount of knocking around and such though and the curved barbell would allow for a curved fistula for when I wanted to wear a ring in the future, so I wasn't too hurt… and to this day I actually haven't worn a ring in it, oddly enough.
Craig again showed the apprentice how it was all going to be done, assisting her with the marking I believe. At this point I really wasn't paying too much attention as my head was still all spinny from just having the daith done just a moment earlier. The both of them still continued good practice of gloves and autoclaved jewellery and needles, cleaning the area to be pierced thoroughly, and checking for troublesome veins. Fernanda prepared herself and the tools (just the 14 gauge needle and a "PA tube" to receive it on the other side – much joking about a penis having vicariously touched my ear included), and we did the one, two, three – pierce!
This didn't hurt nearly as bad as the daith, but there was definitely a pop as it exited my ear. This made me a little happy since with the three cartilage piercings prior, there was no weird pops or other sound effects to be heard and I really was curious as to what everyone was talking about in their cartilage piercing stories. The jewellery insertion was easy as pie, except for a briefly fumbled barbell ball, which I conveniently caught somehow.
They went through the usual "this is how you should clean it" routine, giving a free demonstration with refreshingly cool cotton swabs, and then I got up and we exited the room to go pay… $40 even for both piercings as I was only paying for jewellery this time around.
My ear felt super hot for the next day or two, and tender to the touch around the piercing, but beyond that this piercing wasn't too tremendously achy. I had more issues with sleeping on that ear due to the daith than the outer conch actually. I only cleaned it religiously for the first week or two, as is usual for me, as I find things heal better with the LITHA method for myself, but basically, it was twice daily sea salt soaks and twice daily bactine swabbings which I skipped altogether… Yes, bad bad me, ignoring the advice of a piercer, but do you blame me? Heh.
There wasn't anything spectacular about the healing process except for that by Canada Day 2009, it was still lymphing off and on, and I was getting really annoyed by this. That day, I was just fiddling with my ear piercings and thought I'd pop the barbell out for the first time to get a better look at what the piercing site looked like, as I suspected some of my trouble with it still not being fully healed was due to the fact that it was pierced at an extremely wonky angle (on purpose, I believe), going through my ear on a diagonal so that the back/exit side of the piercing was somewhat closer to the edge of my ear than the front/entry side. It didn't seem all that odd but I had a hell of a time getting the jewellery back in, which included making myself bleed somehow… and had to get my boyfriend to screw the ball on for me (yes, I failed that much).
The weird thing was that after that traumatic event, it was pretty much perfectly healed within about two weeks, no more lymphing, tenderness, nothing. I could sleep on it all I wanted, change the jewellery all I wanted and it hasn't given me any trouble since. I'm now thinking that having the jewellery changed on my daith, which also still lymphs, might help it along to finally healing as well.
Anyways, that's about it for this uneventful, pretty simple piercing and story. I do plan on getting two more outer conch piercings, one on either side of my current one so I have a tiny curve of three in a row, following the curve of my ear. I'll do that as soon as that pesky daith figures itself out! Though, in all honesty, I don't think I'll have any more piercings done by an apprentice, no offense to you guys but these were my most bitchy piercings to deal with and were done comparatively slow to my other piercings. I'll change my mind if future cartilage piercings prove just as bitchy though I guess.

CRESTVIEW � A once-in-a-lifetime experience on the field of Jack Foster Stadium Friday night left an impression on Crestview High School student Jacob Anderson.
CRESTVIEW � A once-in-a-lifetime experience on the field of Jack Foster Stadium Friday night left an impression on Crestview High School student Jacob Anderson.
See CHS alumni perform with the Big Red Machine>>
See photos from the alumni performance event>>
There, Big Red Machine members performed and later visited with their forerunners.
"I'm speechless, really," Jacob, a trumpeter, said. "It was such a great feeling out there with all the alumni."
Generations of Crestview High School band members mingled on the field before and after the newly formed Alumni Band joined the Big Red Machine for the first time.
Organizers said more than 420 musicians and color guardsmen performed to music from throughout the band�s history, starting with Henry Mancini's driving theme song to "Peter Gunn" and concluding with "The James Bond Theme.�
"It's neat for me 'cause my son's in the band so we'll be able to experience something together," Craig Shaw said, noting his son, Nathan, holds the same drum line section leader position this year that he held in 1977.
About 100 alumni turned out for Thursday night�s rehearsal with the current high school band, and even more turned out Friday night, Graham Fountain, one of the alumni band's organizers, said.
During the performance, Jeanette Cramer, Nellie Fleming, Lamar Garrett, Helen Parkton, Claudia Patten and Betty Thigpen, members of the 1938 Okaloosa County School Band, which evolved into the Big Red Machine, were introduced to the cheering audience.
"We're having so much fun," 1983 color guard captain Carolyn Smith said. "It makes you feel young again."
Crestview Mayor David Cadle, the band�s former director, mounted the conductor's platform and led the massed band in the school fight song as the performance finale.
"That felt good!" Cadle said.
"You haven't lost your touch," Crestview High Principal Bob Jones said to Cadle, who had brought the band to national prominence with many televised appearances.

Den leaves Karen in the motel room for longer and longer periods to deal with his toothache, eventually Karen is forced to uncover what is leading Den astray. A psychological tale with wonderfully gruesome imagery. Worth multiple reads!
Gemma Amor leaves it all on the hot tarmac in Three Lanes Deep. A long, sweaty traffic jam forces Lucy to leave her car in search of a place to relieve herself. She encounters friendly strangers who offer her a cold drink and a place to go to the bathroomthen all hell breaks loose.
The Switch by Cameron Chaney takes place at a summer camp. Fans of the Lindsay Lohan star vehicle The Parent Trap should appreciate Chaneys light homage, and his heinous twist.
Astute readers will certainly be sweating Kevin Lucias oppressive A Circle that Ever Returneth. A man takes a job beneath his perceived status in life at a bottle and can redemption center, and soon realizes hes being ground down to nothing by the repetitive tasks and mind numbing interactions with his co-workers. This story is a proper lost episode of The Twilight Zone. Jordan Peele, take note.
There are other non-seasonal themes that run through the book like Ania Ahlborns take on the difficulties of early motherhood in The Governess, featuring one of our favorite storytelling devices, a malfunctioning baby monitor; Mercedes Yardleys Urban Moon which deals with a mythological reinterpretation of violence against women and a major problem with social media.

Jury Selection Suspended in Wyoming Murder Trial
CHEYENNE, Wyo. (AP) - Jury selection has been suspended in the Wyoming first-degree murder trial of an elderly Missouri woman accused of killing her husband nearly 40 years ago.
A family emergency involving a defense attorney prompted a judge to suspend jury selection Wednesday in the trial of 75-year-old Alice Uden, of Chadwick, Mo. Jury selection is scheduled to resume Thursday.
Prosecutors allege Uden shot her 25-year-old husband Ronald Holtz sometime between late 1974 and early 1975. Her attorneys plan to argue self-defense.
Authorities arrested both Uden and her current husband, 71-year-old Gerald Uden, in Missouri last fall. Gerald Uden since has pleaded guilty and begun serving a life sentence for killing his ex-wife and her two sons in central Wyoming in 1980.
Investigators have not linked the two cases.

"Transylvania is situated in a beautiful and socially interesting location, with a dynamic community that is growing more diverse, more energetic, and more creative every year."
Brian Rich has spent more than 15 years as an advocate and activist with Latino immigrant communities in Lexington and the Southeast. He brings examples of the social issues they face into the classroom to help his Transylvania students "make sense of themselves and the world around them."
His goal is to create a comfortable yet challenging atmosphere where students feel free to discuss sensitive issues and ask questions. "A good teacher guides students in seeing both the simple facts and the deeper complexities of the social world," he adds.
Rich's connections in Lexington provide ample opportunities for internships and service learning projects close to campus. "Those experiences are invaluable to students' understanding and integral to finding solutions to the many challenges we face," he says.
When asked what you can do with a sociology degree, Rich is quick to answer.
"With all honesty, almost anything that interests you," he says. "Our graduates work in social services, business, government, medicine, law, education, and more. Because of the diverse perspectives they're exposed to in our liberal arts curriculum, they develop a great appreciation for the diversity of perspectives that people in our city, country, and world bring together in so many interesting ways. It helps them see how we are all connected, how history affects the future, and how our individual lives are part of the larger social world that we share with so many different people."

Then hours later, I received a wonderful email, in which the person wrote, "Hello Barbara, I'm so happy that I found your link while I viewing the Cross family at Piegeon Hill Cemetery." Both of the emails came within a 24-hour period. One error travels fast!
I never heard back from the people at FindAGrave, but did check back on the Pigeon Hill Cemetery site and saw that it was corrected.
Several hours later, while working on a completely different cemetery, I discovered that the same Horace Adams is listed in two cemeteries in Batavia, Genesee Co., New York. I wrote the administrator, but haven't heard anything yet (perhaps on vacation).
These errors are minor, they probably only affect me. But, I do want things to be correct. FindAGrave is a fabulous organization, no question about that. Just think 48 million records for free, and most with photos. I am not complaining, just following them.

And like I said above, if you're worried about that don't enter a trade unless it's based on an equal number of players. Problem solved.
Rob, you can't be this dense.
Quote from: JediJman on September 30, 2011, 02:43 PMRob, you can't be this dense. No, he is. Just not in this instance or for the last couple weeks mostly.
5th in points scored, 1st in points scored against. It's going to be a long year.
That just means you got all of the tough teams out of the way early.
Yeah, I haven't played the Cranes yet. Marin's team (this week's opponent) scored over 100 last week.I'm staring at 1-5 and I think I have a pretty decent team.

ST. CHARLES – Investigators with the Kane County Sheriff's Office are continuing to look into the death of South Elgin woman found hanged late last week at the county jail.
Sheriff's police identified the woman as Terry Hart, 52, of the 600 block of Woodland Drive, South Elgin.
The woman had been in custody since July 31 at the Kane County Adult Justice Center near the corner of Route 38 and Peck Road in St. Charles while she was awaiting sentencing for convictions on charges of aggravated battery and resisting arrest.
She was convicted Aug. 13, and a Kane County judge revoked her bond.
Kane County Sheriff's Office spokesman Lt. Chris Collins said detectives investigating the death have yet to submit reports, so he declined to discuss details concerning the death, such as what was used to hang the woman.
He also declined to indicate whether investigators consider the death to be suicide. However, Collins said the sheriff's office does not consider the death to be "suspicious."
At about 1:45 p.m. Friday, Hart was discovered hanged in her cell.
Correctional officers performed CPR, according to the sheriff's office statement, and Hart was taken by ambulance to Delnor Hospital in Geneva where she was pronounced dead more than three hours later.
"Our condolences go out to the family," Kane County Sheriff Pat Perez said. "It's a terrible thing whenever something like this happens."
Kane County Coroner Rob Russell said a forensic pathologist hired by his office conducted an autopsy Friday.
He said official reports from the autopsy are not expected for another two weeks. Russell said he will decide how to classify the death at that time.
If ruled a suicide, the death would mark the second suicide at the jail in the past 16 months. In May 2012, inmate Keith Renfroe, 20, of Cottage Grove, Minn., used a shirt to strangle himself, according to the official incident report from the Kane County Sheriff's Office.

• Via Christi Family Medicine Residency Program, Wichita, Kan.
The winners also receive scholarships to attend the AAFP's National Conference of Family Medicine Residents and Medical Students, to be held August 1 – 3 in Kansas City, Mo.
The AAFP Foundation Pfizer Immunization Award selection committee chose this year's winners based on their ability to find creative, team-based solutions to increase immunization rates. The foundation gave awards in two categories:
• Best Practices: Winners demonstrated effective systems to reach often-overlooked adult populations, as measured within a specified 12-month period.
• System Implementation: Winners demonstrated implementation of a comprehensive system to increase immunization rates in medically underserved populations.
"We are proud to recognize these nine programs, which have made it their mission to raise awareness and protect their communities from infectious diseases," said Craig M. Doane, AAFP Foundation executive director and secretary. "These programs share our vision of improving health for everyone, and we hope they will serve as examples of best practices for others who look to increase vaccination rates in their communities."

I gotta hand it to Matt Farah. He runs a website called The Smoking Tire, and when he's handed the keys to the new 2014 Corvette Stingray, he does not disappoint in that department. It turns out the C7 'Vette is superb at annihilating rubber.
Luckily for all of us, the new Corvette is hardly a one-trick pony, especially when it comes with the Z51 package.
Matt's review echoes many of the great things we've heard about the car: it's got a lot of great technology, it's a fantastic value, it's absurdly fast, it actually gets decent fuel economy, it's quite nice inside, and it has an excellent manual gearbox, even if that maybe has too many gears.
It is, as he says, "finally a Corvette without excuses." Awesome.

Two new studies create a combined portrait of the United States as an HIV-criminalization hot-spot, where statutes and criminal prosecutions have created an uncertain and inequitable legal environment for people living with HIV and will have profound effects on public health efforts to get more people infected with the virus tested and into care.
Preliminary results studies—the GNP+ Global Criminalization Scan and the Sero Project's National Criminalization Survey –were reported on Wednesday, July 25, at the XIX International AIDS Conference (AIDS 2012) in Washington, DC.
A Global Overview of HIV Criminalization
Edwin J. Bernard, co-coordinator of the HIV Justice Network, presented a preview of his research and findings from the GNP+ Global Criminalization Scan, a country-by-country analysis of HIV-related prosecutions. Results from the scan showed that even though HIV-related criminal cases are often framed by prosecutors and the media as being "deliberate," many nations continue to inappropriately prosecute people living with HIV for non-intentional exposure and for alleged non-disclosure and exposure—in many cases when HIV transmission has not actually occurred or when the transmission route has not been adequately proven.
A prosecution can be classified as an HIV-criminalization case when it is brought based on someone's HIV-positive status under HIV-specific laws—legislation that specifically criminalizes HIV transmission, exposure or potential exposure—or under general law. An example of an HIV-criminalization prosecution brought under general law is when HIV is stipulated as a "deadly weapon" or "dangerous instrument" in an aggravated assault charge when an HIV-positive defendant is accused of biting or spitting.
Bernard reported that at least 66 countries currently have one or more jurisdictions with HIV-specific criminal laws, and at least 47 countries have used HIV-specific or general laws to prosecute HIV non-disclosure, exposure or transmission. Since researchers were limited to searching case records and media reports when counting and categorizing countries' HIV-criminalization prosecutions, Bernard said that results should not be considered comprehensive and should instead be seen as suggestive of the international variance in HIV criminalization.
Bernard also presented an assessment of global HIV-criminalization hot-spots—a final ranking of 15 nations that had the highest number of HIV-related arrests and prosecutions per 1,000 people living with HIV through July 1, 2012. The United States was at the very top of the list of 15 countries, with the states of South Dakota, Idaho, Mississippi, Louisiana, Tennessee, Illinois, Missouri, Indiana, Ohio, Florida and Oklahoma responsible for the greatest number of HIV-criminalization prosecutions and arrests.
"At least a quarter of the prosecutions in the United States are for things that don't even risk exposure—such as spitting and biting [with no blood-to-blood contact]—but the United States isn't the only country doing this," Bernard explained. There is currently no evidence that HIV criminalization reduces overall rates of HIV transmission. However, Bernard explained, there is growing evidence that HIV-related prosecutions increase HIV stigmatization and discourage HIV testing and treatment.
Other nations considered hot-spots included Bermuda, Malta, Sweden, Australia, New Zealand, Finland, Norway, Austria, Denmark, Canada, the Czech Republic, Switzerland, Hungary and Singapore. Bernard noted that high-income countries, especially in North America and Scandinavia, were bringing the highest number of HIV-criminalization cases.
The Legal Vulnerability of HIV-positive People in the United States
Citing preliminary results from the Sero Project's national criminalization survey, Laurel Sprague, the project's research director and lead investigator, showed that HIV criminalization may be a significant deterrent to testing and accessing treatment and services for HIV in the United States. The online survey had 2,076 U.S. respondents who self-reported as HIV positive and was promoted through HIV-positive online networks and on POZ.com and AIDSmeds.com. Questions were designed to assess national views on HIV criminalization.
More than 25 percent of participants said they knew one or more person who did not want to get tested for HIV because of fear of prosecution if they tested positive. Five percent of respondents specified that "many people" had told them this. In addition, roughly 41 percent of respondents considered it reasonable for an HIV-positive person to avoid HIV treatment for fear of prosecution.
"I want to emphasize that avoiding testing and avoiding treatment can have life-threatening consequences, and people know this," Sprague explained. "Even so, people still felt that it was reasonable to avoid HIV testing and care."
To make sense of this, Sprague offered more survey results. Nearly 40 percent of survey participants reported that they'd worried a few times or frequently about being falsely accused of not disclosing their HIV-positive status. Among transgender people living with HIV, this number was 60 percent. "For HIV-positive people, when things go terribly wrong in a relationship, we can be vulnerable to not only the pain of ending a relationship but also to punishment through the legal system," said Sprague, who was speaking as a researcher and a woman living with HIV. Respondents in the Midwest and the South were more likely to express fear about false accusations.
Respondents also indicated that they did not trust the criminal justice system and 49 percent said that their state would not, or probably not, give them a fair hearing if someone were to file a charge against them for non-disclosure. "People felt that as soon as they are seen as a person living with HIV, they will not be trusted and will not be seen as a reliable witness," Sprague said. Another 29 percent of respondents said that they weren't sure if they would get a fair hearing.
In fact, among the study participants uncertainty about the laws surrounding HIV disclosure was extremely common. More than 60 percent of respondents were not certain whether or not their state required people with HIV to disclose their status to a partner before having sex. Nearly half or respondents also expressed a lack of clarity about what actions or accusations could subject them to prosecutions. "People living with HIV in the U.S. find themselves in an incredibly vulnerable legal situation in which they can't predict what kinds of behaviors might be criminalized," Sprague added.
However, fear of prosecution did not appear to prompt disclosure. In fact, fear of criminal prosecution for non-disclosure was low on the list of replies when respondents were asked to share, in their own words, what factors motivated their HIV disclosure in relationships or potential relationships. Instead, respondents offered these reasons for disclosure: Because it's the right thing to do; to have honest relationships; to not cause harm to other human beings; and to protect their partners.
These answers, Sprague explained, indicate that ethical considerations supersede legal considerations in motivating people to disclose their status.
While Sprague is clear that HIV criminalization appears to be detrimental to public health by discouraging testing, treatment and access to care, she insists that it may play a greater social role. "Criminalization serves to scapegoat individual people for larger social failures, including the failure to provide social and psychological support for people living with HIV; the failure to deal with social stigma and discrimination; the failure to fund empowerment projects; and perhaps most [pressingly] the failure to deal with gender inequality," she concluded.
The Personal and Societal Costs of HIV Criminalization
To further explain the personal and psychological results of being a defendant in an HIV-criminalization prosecution, Nick Rhoades discussed his conviction under the Criminal Transmission of HIV Law in Iowa. Rhoades was initially sentenced to 25 years in prison for not disclosing his HIV status during sex, even though he used a condom and HIV was not transmitted. He spent a year in prison, but after pressure from HIV advocates his sentence was suspended and he was given five years of supervised probation and lifelong registration as a sex offender.
Rhoades explained that because of the HIV-criminalization prosecution he has struggled with depression and has had difficulty finding employment. During his incarceration he had to skip doses of antiretroviral medication when he was transferred to different prisons, and when he was released he was kicked of the AIDS Drug Assistance Program, which also created a gap in his adherence. Rhoades also estimated that the cost of a single successful HIV-criminalization prosecution to taxpayers in Iowa, factoring in the cost of medications and routine medical care, is from $65,000 to $70,000 dollars per year. This estimate doesn't factor in the lost income and the cost of probation and routine supervision by an official from the sex offender registry.
Rhoades also explains why these harsh HIV criminalization laws don't work well as a public health measure: "In many cases, such as mine, tax payers are paying for the enforcement of laws that punish people with HIV who actually follow the primary prevention messages of public counselors: stay in treatment, keep your viral load undetectable or as close to undetectable as possible, use condoms and otherwise keep sex safer." Speaking from personal experience, Rhoades said that these laws also increase HIV stigmatization. However, Rhoades was more up-beat when he mentioned the current domestic movements focused on stopping HIV-related prosecutions.
U.S. Tops List of Global HIV-Criminalization Hot-Spots
Two new studies create a combined portrait of the United States as an HIV-criminalization hot-spot, where statutes and criminal prosecutions have created an uncertain and inequitable legal environment for people living with HIV and will have profound effects on public health efforts to get more people infected with the virus tested and into care.

Maize Oil Processing Machine flow chart
Introduction Of Maize Oil Processing Machine
1) Function: Oil extraction machine is an oil extractor through soaking or spraying pre-pressed cake by a certain organic solvent. The principle of this part is the different solubility of solvent.
2) Use range: Oil extraction machine fits for pre-press extraction of high-oil-content materials and direct once time extraction of low-oil-content materials.
3) Main parts: Oil extraction machine series includes rotary extractor, toaster, 1st evaporator, 2nd evaporator, stripping tower, condenser,etc.
Main Parts Of Maize Oil Processing Machine
1) Solvent pumps: continuously spray solvent to the rotary-type extractor.
2) Rotary extractor: spray and soak the pre-pressed cake with solvent so that oil fats can be dissolved in solvent (form miscella). After processing,you can get wet meal and miscella (mixed oil).
3) DTDC: used to separate the solvent from the wet meal.
4) Miscella tank 1st: pump the miscella (oil with solvent) into the miscella 1st, then add 10% saline water to it. The phospholipids and impurities in the miscella will react with the saline water, at last the reactant precipitate, reaching the goal of purifying.
5) Miscella tank 2nd: the purified miscella will be pumped into it.
6) Miscella stripping: it will remove the remaining solvent in miscella. And the solvent will be discharged to condenser for recycling.
7) Condensers: used to cooling the solvent gas separated from the wet meal and miscella for recycling.
Main Process Of Maize Oil Processing Machine
solvent extraction process
After pressed or pre-pressed, we get the cake, the cake has about 7% or 12-13% oil residual. In order to make the oil in the cake is less than 1%, we need to solvent extraction. And Firstly, we need to by the scraper convenyor, send the cake to the solvent extractor, then leach them is about 90-120 minutes, keep the temperature 70-80 degree.
Wet Meal Desolventizing Process
The desolventizer has the three layers, the first layer is pre-desolventizing layer. The second layer is ventilating layer. The third is desolventing layer. The fourth layer is drying layer. The fiveth layer is cooling layer. This process of pre-desolventizing, we use the indirect steam to heat, the tempreature is 70-80degree. Then the cake enter the ventilating layer, the size of hole is 25 and 30mm, the we can open the hole by the steam, which make us easily make the solvent evaporate. The Desolventing layer, the temperature is 107- 108 degree, this layer, we main desolventize the solvent by the superheated steam. Then the cake enter the drying layer, the process, its temperature is 110-120 degree, and this process we can make the moisture is 12.8-13.2 in the meal. Then the cake entre the cooling layer, cooling the temperature to understand 40 degree. And in the meal, the solvent residaul is less than 500ppm.
Miscella Evaporating Process
This process is main includes three parts: first tube evaporating, second tube evaporating, and Solvent stripped by the steam process. The temperature is 70-75 degree in first tube evaporating process, the solvent will become evapour by indirect steam heating. In this process, the solvent will be evaporated 65%. The temperature is 105 degree in second evaporating process, the solvent will become evapour by indirect steam heating. In this process, we can make 30% solvent become evaporate. The least 5% solvent in oil, we will make it evaporate by direct steam heating, the temperature is 105-110 degree.
Solvent Condensation & Recovery Process
Solvent condensation system combines with evaporation system closely, and evaporative condenser and steam stripping condenser all work under negative pressure. Noncondensable gas enters the energy saver from the shell of the first evaporator. In energy saver, noncondensable gas exchanges heat with condensate from the evaporative condenser. Finally, the condensate temperature discharged from energy saver is increased, and the solvent separated from water goes to solvent holding tank. The high temperature makes it unnecessary to be reheated for the recycling, so as to save energy. Noncondensable gas from energy saver enters desolventizing condenser, in which a great deal of gas is condensed, and the tail gas is dischargd into the final condenser. The solvent gas from the extractor enters extraction condenser, and the noncondensable tail gas enters the final condenser. For the free gas in final condenser, diversion box, holding tank, underground solvent library and miscella tank, cool them with lowtemperatured cold water to recycle most of solvent gas. The tail gas with little solvent goes to paraffin recovery process.
Paraffin Oil Recovery Process
Tail gas first enters paraffin absorption tower, and then comes the countercurrent absorption of paraffin and tail gas, which can reach the ideal state when the stainless steel packing has large surface area. The solvent content in discharged liquid paraffin (called rich oil) is not more than 5%, so as to ensure the maximum absorption rate. The paraffin rich oil is pumped into the heat exchanger to exchange heat with paraffin lean oil, and then goes to paraffin heater, and finally enters paraffin analysis tower. In the analysis tower, the steamliquid heat exchange is conducted on the surface of stainless steel packing surface with direct steam and rich oil paraffin, which can remove the solvent in the paraffin. This kind of paraffin, also called lean oil, exchanges heat with rich oil, and then is cooled to the ideal absorption temperature through the cooler. Next, it enters absorption tower for recycling. The gas mixture from the analysis tower enters energy saver, and the tail gas from the absorption tower is discharged from workshop with the fan.In solvent recovery system, the solvent enters the holding tank through water tank, and the condensed waste water is discharged from water tank. If the tail gas contains certain solvent, cook it with the cooker to make it meet the emission requirements.

Class of 2010
Major/Minor: Double major, International Studies, Philosophy. Minor, East Asian Studies Concentration
Where else can an undergrad work on half a dozen different publications before their senior year?
How has your liberal arts education influenced you? How do you apply your Liberal Arts Education in your current career?
As an undergraduate, I never imagined that I would end up going in publishing but, given my experiences at Washington College, maybe I shouldn't have been surprised. Where else can an undergrad work on half a dozen different publications before their senior year?
After graduation I went overseas to teach English for a year and, when I was preparing to come back home, I applied for an internship with an association in DC. They had several open intern positions and, after one look at my resume, placed me in publications. Four months later I had a full-time job in publishing.
Almost everyone in my department has a degree in English but working for an academic publisher means talking to authors about more than grammar. We publish texts spanning the social sciences and humanities, so, now, I'm helping to create the same kinds of books that were on my syllabi in college. All of those classes in political science, economics, and philosophy, and, more importantly, the skills that I learned from them have helped me in ways that I did not expect.
Then again, is there an industry where being able to read and write critically, ask the right questions, and state your position clearly is not an asset? Those, for me, are the most important takeaways from the Washington College education.
Who was your favorite faculty member? Story?
Two immediately come to mind: Dr. Oros and Dr. Brien.
By sheer luck (and the clever summer advising of Dr. Wade) I had a class with each of them during the fall of my first semester. Over the next four years I made the transition from overwhelmed freshman to college graduate and both were there every step of the way, reassuring my parents during family weekends, welcoming me into their homes, even checking in on my health when the flu was going around, and finally acting as my thesis advisers.
Both took a vested interest in me as a student and a person and continued to give the best advice when I considered life after Washington College.
What is your favorite Washington College memory?
"Snowmageddon" happened in the spring of my senior year and, what was a disaster for road crews, was a dream come true for a college student. Some of the exchange students that I lived with in East Hall had never even seen snow before, so we all spent a class-free week loitering around the dining hall and sledding down dorm steps on trays.

Students honored for academic achievement, leadership

Celina Rae Vasquez, a graduating senior from Bedford, and Jeremy Ray Harris, a graduating senior from Gruver, received the Citizenship Awards for the 2003-04 school year, the highest award presented to a student by the university. The awards recognize leadership in and out of the classroom, servanthood and commitment to Christian ideals that make both favorites of students, faculty and staff.
The daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Vasquez, Celina came to Wayland in August of 2000 and became active in student activities, serving in Student Government Association cabinet, Student Union Board and the Baptist Student Ministries. She has served on the committee for Koinonia, Wayland's freshman orientation program, and has represented WBU at the Christian Association of Student Leaders conference. She will earn a Bachelor of Arts degree in May, majoring in history and minoring in Christian leadership.
A third generation Wayland student, Harris followed his parents, grandparents and many other family members to Wayland in 2000, attending the Albuquerque campus first before transferring to the Plainview campus in 2001. He has been active in Student Government and Student Alumni Council and served on Wayland's Rec Team and Rejoice. He will earn a Bachelor of Arts degree in religion in May and will pursue a career in youth ministry after serving on Wayland's Revival Team for the summer. He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Pat Harris of Gruver.
Dr. Glenn Saul, vice president for academic services, presented other special awards during the chapel service. Keith Platte of Shattuck, Okla., received the Timothy Award, given to the senior ministerial student with the highest academic average and accompanied by a cash award. The Boyd Award, honoring a young ministerial student, was presented to Brandon Burrows of Amarillo along with a cash award. Crystal Morton, a senior from Friona, received the Amelia Bishop Women's Ministerial Scholarship, honoring an outstanding senior female ministerial student. Zack Greer of Pampa earned the Owen Leech Award and cash prize, honoring students who demonstrate a calling and commitment to discipleship and evangelism.

Sarah Gatlin of Amarillo was presented with the Cecil and Kathleen Turner Music Scholarship, and Luciana Rempel of Seminole earned the Christa Kunkel Smith Modern Language Scholarship, honoring students studying foreign languages. Billie Turner of El Paso received the Sanders Math Scholarship.
Britany Lewis of Borger was honored as the Senator of the Year, an award given by the Student Government Association for contributions to the Senate's work. The Roy C. McClung Award and Scholarship, recognizing future educators for Christian dedication and service, was presented to Bridget Hancock of Booker. Kelli Howard of Midland received the Helen Barnhart Reese Memorial Scholarship and Award for an outstanding student in education. Jessica Rae Odom of Dimmitt earned the Janis Davis Scholarship Award, honoring a student for dedication to Christian principles, contributions to student life and a commitment to the university.

Quote:The evidence is apparently not there in the post-mortem tox-screen, though.
Quote: True, which means nothing. Not all screens reveal compounds such as dbol, or others, which is out of the system in a couple weeks max. As for elevated levels of testosterone, considering test wasn't an illegal drug, why would they do a specific screen searching for it? Answer: They wouldn't and didn't. And I'm not saying he was a long time user, other than he probably used at one point. That's all.

Beckham admitted the move came as a shock, but he believes second base could become permanent. "I can't see them moving me again," he said.
Seems the NY Times August 8 report that the Sox planned to move Gordon Beckham to second base was correct. And Ozzie said on October 20 'if Beckham moves, he'll move to second base.'


text: THE PIPER SPORTS & RACING CAR CLUB HISTORY The Piper Club was first established in 1978 by Clive and Diane Davies to find out just how many Piper's still existed from the approximately 80 road cars manufactured. Many cars were off the road because of front screen damage and screens were unavailable because the original jigs had been lost after production finished. A new jig was made for the front screen and the old moulds for the side and rear screens were found and purchased by the club and refurbished and this brought out a few more cars. Attending events and a few articles in the magazines soon put the clubs name around and even more cars came to the surface. Information has also been gained from past owners, racers, designers and manufacturers. After many years of loyal to service to Piper Cars and their owners, Clive and Diane ceased their involvment in the running of the Piper club. The Piper club was re-vitalised in the year 2000, with the help and dedication of Piper owner Barry Miller - who continued his involvement until 2012. This new look Piper Club was created in May 2012 by a group of owners and enthusiasts who came together to pick up and build on the previous hard work and keep the passion for these cars in the public domain. With so few cars originally produced, Club membership will never be high but we all share the common interest that keeps this club and our cars alive and we are always pleased to have new members join our club The preservation of PIPER cars is our main concern and the club can supply some of the unique parts used during production. The majority of our 32 members are here in the UK but we do have members in Austria, Belgium, France, Italy, Netherlands, Sweden, Switzerland and the USA. We still have a few missing PIPERS ON OUR records so if you can help us with any leads we will follow anything up!
