Q: "When I was in college..." Do you really mean college? Or university? When someone in the US says "When I was in college..."  he can mean "college" but he can also mean "university", so I've been told. If that's true, how can we know which one he is talking about?  If I say my daughter is off to college, can it really mean either one?

A: The common distinction made is that universities offer graduate programs and colleges do not, but that is not entirely true. Many colleges do have graduate programs, but they are typically applied masters programs with little to no research components. The true distinction of a university is that universities have research programs and PhD programs. In fact, universities tend to put a lot of emphasis on research.
Due to the emphasis on research, it is not uncommon for classes at universities to be taught by TAs and grad students, this is especially true of entry-level classes. The larger the university, the more likely the lower-level classes will be taught by aids and students. At smaller colleges, however, the classes are generally taught by the actual professors.
As with most things, there are exceptions. There are smaller universities with less research emphasis and there are larger colleges that do have research components.
It is also useful to note that a college can be a division of a university. For instance, you could study under the College of Arts and Sciences at Cornell University. And, to further confuse things, sometimes these divisions are called "schools," such as the NYU Tisch School of Arts.
All that said, in the US it isn't pejorative to say that someone went to "college."
http://www.becker.edu/global/college-vs-university/

A: I have never heard an American refer to "university."  They say "college" just about exclusively.  This is regardless of whether the place they got their bachelors degree was actually a university or a college (also, as others have mentioned, sometimes "universities" are made up of smaller "colleges").  Literally the only times I've heard Americans say something like "when I was at University" is when they are talking to a foreigner.  It's always "when I was in college" or sometimes, "when I was in school" (if it's clear from the context that they are talking about college).
Likewise, nobody would ever say "university" to mean any kind of post-bachelors degree.  They'd say Med School, Business School, Grad School, etc.

A: While the OP specifies the US, some of the other answers are based on other countries. I'll respond mainly regarding the US, but I'll start with some comments regarding other countries. In many countries, college means secondary school, following on from primary school. It would never mean that to the average American.
Technically, a US college is a venue for obtaining post-high school (post-secondary) qualifications. It could be a 2-year degree, called an Associates degree, which may or may not be vocationally-based.  You can get an AA or AS in welding, math, Spanish, etc. These colleges are usually known as community colleges.
The other type of college grants Bachelor's degrees (not to be confused with the bachillerato granted in many countries to what in the US would be called high school students, who are typically going on to what in the US would be called college). There are 4-year liberal arts colleges, and there are subject-oriented colleges (which are now rare).
In the US, a university would be composed of multiple colleges, including one or more bachelors colleges, as well as a grad school. You really have to offer a Masters degree to be able to call it a university.
Most Universities also offer Ph.D.s and possibly other advanced degrees (in the American academic world, we now call the MA and beyond terminal degrees), such as MD, JD, THD etc.
Some places, like Boston College, have chosen to keep College in their name, even though they are universities.
I would not say "I'm going to university"; I'd say "I'm in college" (though for my last degree I was actually taking classes in three colleges of the university).
I could say "I'm at the University of California", or "I go to Yale University", but not "I'm in university" (or "I'm in Uni") without it sounding a bit affected.
So if all I said was that my daughter was off to college, you wouldn't know if she was attending a small liberal arts school of 300 or a prestigious university, or even a local community college (but then why say she was "off to?") -- but you would know that she was studying at a level beyond high school.
People who are not in academia might use the term without knowing all these details.

A: In the US, there is little difference between a college and a university in common speech. Generally, institutes of higher learning with smaller student bodies call themselves colleges, while larger institutions call themselves universities, but the distinction is largely cosmetic.
So you usually wouldn't know for sure, but that doesn't really matter.
In speech or writing, you would use college as the object of a preposition (e.g., "going to college") no matter whether the institution calls itself a college or a university; "going to university" would be understood, but sounds affected when spoken by a natural born American.

A: From a technical perspective, a university is a school of higher education that offers a graduate program, while a college does not. There are exceptions to this rule, but it mostly works.
In practice, though, these are seen as VERY SIMILAR academically in the US. In terms of my education, I can get a good education at a program that only offers a 4-year bachelors and I can also get a good education at a University that offers a post-graduate degree. I get the same education at either type of institution. That said, universities are seen as more prestigious because post-grad work creates the opportunities for research and in general, they will offer more programs and more variety of programs. That's why Americans don't see it as important to differentiate between which of the two schools they attended.
To answer your question, you cannot tell if someone went to a university or college based on a statement like "I'm in college" or "I went to college." However, if someone is talking about post-graduate work, they will say something like "In my post-grad..." or "For my masters..." In general, there's really no reason to care whether they went to a college or a university.

A: I feel compelled to add a non-US answer, as these words have quite distinct meanings in the UK.

*

*A University is a seat of research and tertiary (normally age 18-21) education, which awards degrees and postgraduate qualifications.

*A College can be either a place of secondary (normally age 16-18) education, with a bias toward awarding vocational qualifications. Or it can be an administrative subdivision of a University (most UK universities do not have colleges - Oxford and Cambridge famously do, and a few others have adopted that system). Which one is being spoken about when the word is used is usually obvious from the context.
The US-centric use of the word "College" as a direct alternative to "University" can cause considerable confusion to older UK English speakers, and indeed can feel annoyingly vague even to people who are aware of the different meaning across the Atlantic.

A: In many large American universities the "University" is the high-level organization and the "College" is the specific subordinate organization that focuses around a more specific area of study. It is common to see "University A, college of B". In common speech "Going to college" is what we say, but what we usually mean is "going to university".
The semantics are blurred today, mostly for reasons that have a political history behind them, but you can still see the original meanings in use at most American institutions older than 80 years or so.
Example: http://engineering.tamu.edu/cse/
Various headers read "Texas A&M University, College of Engineering" or just "College of Engineering", because that is a specific college within the Texas A&M structure. Within that college they have further subdivisions by "Department" (electrical engineering, computer science, etc.).
Some universities define a "college" as a specific campus location and focus there on a specific area of study. Some universities even call themselves a "university system" and each campus a "school" and each department a "college". The overall intent is that these terms imply a hierarchy, whether they are commonly used in that sense or not when speaking casually (and its worth noting that American nearly always speak casually, even on formal occasions).

A: A college is a school that you go to for learning a skill for a job as an adult. For example, "I went to college to become an Engineer."
A University is a collection of colleges that have grouped together. If you look at a University website they will often ask, "What school would you like to apply for?" Here 'School' and 'College' are similar. They may say the 'College of Engineering' for example.
The idea of a University is to create the 'Universal Man'. Someone who is well educated in many areas of life. So when someone goes to University they are learning many things. If someone says 'College' they may mean something more specific, but a college most often is with other colleges making up a University.
Community Colleges are a bit of a stepping stone to a University as they may not have a large enough group of colleges to be officially called a University.
If you are talking with someone you cannot really be wrong by asking, "What college are you at?" That is a good open ended question to make good conversation, because they could answer with different kinds of answers.

Good News Story
North West Fusion Group is proud to announce the launch of our second network primarily for the use of the members of The Blind Veterans Amateur Radio Society. Members of the society have regular morning nets on 80m SSB but due to current HF conditions, some of their members identified a need for a second way of using Amateur Radio.
After support and advice from Doc, G4ZJO in Morecambe, Lancashire, an active and very supportive member of The North West Fusion Group, we have now completed the instigation of a Yaesu WiresX room, number 44222, named BLIND-VETS–NWFG. This is linked to YSF42233-GB BLIND-VETS-Blind Veterans Reflector available through most hotspots.
The first contact after testing by our Admin team was between Andy, 2E0THP, and Doc, G4ZJO this afternoon, 3/7/2020.
The main North West Fusion Group Network remains unaffected and there may be short periods where the Blind Vets network is down, these will be kept to a minimum and will only be for minor technical changes to take place.

Yorimasa
Once upon a time in Japan, a certain emperor became seriously ill. He was unable to sleep at night because of a terrible noise. As soon as the sun set, a dark, black cloud came in from the East, and it settled on the roof of the palace. It was discovered that this was no cloud, but a monster with huge claws.
Night after night, this terrible dragon came, and night after night, the emperor's health grew worse. It became apparent that unless something could be done to destroy this monster, the emperor would certainly die.
The only knight brave enough to face this monster was named Yorimasa. He donned his armor, over which he wore a hunting-dress, and a ceremonial cap instead of his usual helmet. He took up his best bow and steel-tipped arrows to fight the creature.
Yorimasa killed the dragon, which was the size of a horse, with an ape's head, a tiger's body and claws, a serpent's tail, a bird's wings, and a dragon's scales.
From the very moment the creature died, the emperor's health rapidly improved. The emperor kept the scales of the dragon in his treasure house, and gave Yorimasa a sword called shishi-o "the King of Lions

Critiques of Charter Schools
Difficulties with accountability
The basic concept of charter schools is that they exercise increased autonomy in return for greater accountability. They are meant to be held accountable for both academic results and fiscal practices to several groups, including the sponsor that grants them, the parents who choose them, and the public that funds them. Charter schools can theoretically be closed for failing to meet the terms set forth in their charter, but in practice, this can be difficult, divisive, and controversial. One example was the 2003 revocation of the charter for a school called Urban Pioneer in the San Francisco Unified School District, which first came under scrutiny when two students died on a school wilderness outing. An auditor's report found that the school was in financial disarray and posted the lowest test scores of any school in the district except those serving entirely non-English-speakers. It was also accused of academic fraud, graduating students with far fewer than the required credits. There is also the case of California Charter Academy, where a publicly funded but privately run chain of 60 charter schools became insolvent in August 2004, despite a budget of $100 million, which left thousands of children without a school to attend.
In March 2009, the Center for Education Reform released its latest data on charter school closures. At that time they found that 657 of the more than 5250 charter schools that have ever opened had closed, for reasons ranging from district consolidation to failure to attract students. The study found that "41 percent of the nation's charter closures resulted from financial deficiencies caused by either low student enrollment or inequitable funding," while 14% had closed due to poor academic performance. The report also found that the absence of achievement data "correlates directly with the weakness of a state's charter school law. For example, states like Iowa, Mississippi, Virginia and Wyoming have laws ranked either "D" or "F". Progress among these schools has not been tracked objectively or clearly." A 2005 paper found that in Connecticut, which it characterized as having been highly selective in approving charter applications, a relatively large proportion of poorly performing charter schools have closed. Under Connecticut's relatively weak charter law, only 21 charter schools have opened in all, and of those, five have closed. Of those, 3 closed for financial reasons. Charter school students in Connecticut are funded on average $4,278 less than regular public school students.
In a September 2007 public policy report, education experts Andrew Rotherham and Sara Mead of Education Sector offered a series of recommendations to improve charter school quality through increased accountability. Some of their recommendations urged policymakers to: (i) provide more public oversight of charter school authorizers, including the removal of poor-quality authorizers, (ii) improve the quality of student performance data with more longitudinal student-linked data and multiple measures of school performance, and (iii) clarify state laws related to charter school closure, especially the treatment of displaced students.
Exploitation by for-profit entities
Critics have accused for-profit entities (Educational Management Organizations or EMOs) and private foundations such as the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the Eli and Edythe Broad Foundation, and the Walton Family Foundation of funding Charter school initiatives to undermine public education and turn education into a "Business Model" which can make a profit. According to activist Jonathan Kozol, education is seen as one of the biggest market opportunities in America or "the big enchilada".
Shift from progressive to conservative movement
Charters were originally a progressive movement (called the "small schools" movement) started by University of Massachusetts professor Ray Budde and conservative American Federation of Teachers leader, Al Shanker to explore best practices for education without bureaucracy. However, the Charter movement is said to have shifted into an effort to privatize education and attack teachers' unions. Education historian Diane Ravitch has estimated, as a "safe guess," that 95% of charters in the United States are non-union and has said that charters follow an unsustainable practice of requiring teachers to work unusually long hours.
Lower student test scores and teacher issues
According to a study done by Vanderbilt University, teachers in charter schools are 132% more likely to leave teaching than a public school teacher. Another 2004 study done by the Department of Education found that charter schools "are less likely than traditional public schools to employ teachers meeting state certification standards." A national evaluation by Stanford University found that 83% of charter schools perform the same or worse than public schools (see earlier in this article).
It is as yet unclear whether charters' lackluster test results will affect the enacting of future legislation. A Pennsylvania legislator who voted to create charter schools, State Rep. Mark B. Cohen of Philadelphia, said that "Charter schools offer increased flexibility to parents and administrators, but at a cost of reduced job security to school personnel. The evidence to date shows that the higher turnover of staff undermines school performance more than it enhances it, and that the problems of urban education are far too great for enhanced managerial authority to solve in the absence of far greater resources of staff, technology, and state of the art buildings."
Lottery for admissions disappoints some
When admission depends on a random lottery, some hopeful applicants may be disappointed. A film about the admission lottery at the Harlem Success Academy, New York City, has been shown as The Lottery. It was inspired by a 2008 lottery. Waiting for "Superman" is another film examining this issue.
Concern has also been raised about the exemption of charter school teachers from states' collective bargaining laws, especially because "charter school teachers are even more likely than traditional public school teachers to be beset by the burn-out caused by working long hours, in poor facilities." It has recently been noted that "an increasing number of teachers at charter schools" are now attempting to restore collective bargaining rights. Steven Brill, in his book, Class Warfare: Inside the Fight to Fix America's Schools (2011), changed his position on charter schools and unions. He said that after two years of researching school reform, he understood the complexities. He reversed his view of union leader Randi Weingarten and suggested she run the school system for a city.
Racial segregation
One study states that charter schools increase racial segregation. A UCLA report points out that most charter schools are located in African-American neighborhoods. Here are the demographics for Colorado charter schools: 57.7% are white (not Hispanic), 28.6% are Hispanic, 6.7% are Black (not Hispanic), 3.6% are Asian or Pacific Islander, 0.8% are Native American, and 2.6% are two or more ethnicities. Here are the demographics for traditional public schools in Colorado: 56.8% are white (not Hispanic), 31.8% are Hispanic, 4.6% are Black (not Hispanic), 3.1% are Asian or Pacific Islander, 0.9% are Native American, and 2.8% are two or more ethnicities. In this state, charter and public schools have almost identical demographics.
Too much power for teachers and parents
Professor Frank Smith, of Teachers College, Columbia University, sees the charter-school movement as a chance to involve entire communities in redesigning all schools and converting them to "client-centered, learning cultures" (1997). He favors the Advocacy Center Design process used by state-appointed Superintendent Laval Wilson to transform four failing New Jersey schools. Building stronger communities via newly designed institutions may prove more productive than charters' typical "free-the-teacher-and-parent" approach.

Jim is an average New Yorker living a peaceful life with a well paying job and a loving family. Suddenly, everything changes when the economy crashes causing Jim to lose everything.
Uwe Boll seemed to take the general concept of one of his other films titled Rampage gives a Wall Street twist and makes a new film. It may be his best film yet but that still isn't saying much.
The story follows Jim (who is never given a last name) who is working long hours at his security job trying to pay for his wife Rosie's medicine for Cancer. Shortly after he realizes he doesn't have the money and his insurance isn't covering it he goes to sell his stocks only to find out that they've been lost and he owes more. Between lawyers, his wife's illness, and work the decline in not only his mentality but his wife's as well starts to show. Add that on top of a few major plot points that happen later in the film and it sets the mood for the last portion of the movie.
Assault On Wall Street suffers from the main point that made Rampage bad though with the slow pacing. The first hour or so if the draw up to the finale but other than a few small scenes the pacing is so slow. None of the characters are really likeable at all. I mean they don't even care enough to give the two main characters a last name. The entire time as well they are constantly trying to push the thought about the evils of Wall Street which have little effect on your thoughts during it. Dominic Purcell does a decent role as "Jim" since the majority of his time on screen is either playing a sad quiet man or a angry man both of which are roles he has done before. Every other role is instantly forgettable and about as paper thin as you can imagine. It is worth a laugh that Keith Davis is a star in this as a cop buddy though who does little for the movie.
When the moment hits and the action begins though it does raise it up. Surprisingly it does actually get bloody and the body count piles up in a quick time but almost just as quick as it begins it is over. This can also be labeled as another misleading cover because at no time does anything resembling the cover happen. A short burst of action even mixed into a ridiculous over the top story is decent though. Uwe does deserve credit for making the end twist almost too stupid though. I guess by doing so he made it to where a sequel could happen not that anyone would be asking for one.
Is this worth a watch? In short, no. With a bad and at times laughable story which leads to a grand finale that ends up getting over just after it begins its hard to recommend this to anyone. Just throw this into the pile of all the other Uwe Boll movies that we can do without.


It's summertime, and the living is easy … sort of. The kids are home from school, and those weekend road trips to the lake or beach sure do add up to some added stress on your bank account. Don't sacrifice style this summer, you can still save big with these simple money-saving techniques, right from the comfort of your computer.
Here are a few our favorite ways to look hot while keeping your wallet cool.
We love finding a pretty new party dress or a great pair of summer sandals at our favorite department store or boutique. But in today's recovering economy, stores offer sales more frequently than ever. Use online resource Hukkster.com to keep track of when your favorite products go on sale. Sign in with your email address or Facebook account and install the "Hukk It" bookmarklet to your browser. When you're shopping online and see an item you'd really like, but aren't quite sure about just yet, Hukk It to your profile in your size. You'll get alerts the way YOU want, meaning you can find out if the item goes on sale, is discounted by a certain percentage, or even if the store itself is offering a flash sale or coupon. You'll never miss a promo again. Even better, you'll get a $10 card just for signing up.
For home goods and housewares, try One Kings Lane or Joss & Main. Both "lifestyle" websites, these flash sale options offer lots of ways to find great ways to spice up your house. We love that sales are curated not just by designer but by title like 'Gone Ashore: Decor with Coastal Charm' or 'Favorite Finds for the Bedroom,' which makes it easy and fun to look, even if you're not in the mood to buy.
For clothing, try Gilt Groupe, Rue La La, Haute Look and Ideeli. All of these websites offer a mix of clothing and housewares sorted by gender and age (there are sections for men, women, children, home and even travel on most sites). These emails might be overwhelming on a daily basis, but you can sign in to receive weekly digest notifications, in case your favorite brand goes on sale, or a brand you've purchased from previously is back on the site.
Never pay shipping again. Retail giant Amazon's "Prime" membership option is well worth the $99 annual fee. Order anything you want with the "prime" designation and get free two-day shipping. One of our favorite features is the "recurring" shipment option. Order basics like toilet paper, vitamins, or coffee and have them shipped to your door at regular intervals.

Prime members get access to Prime Video, with unlimited instant streaming of over 40,000 movies and TV episodes, Prime Music, with unlimited, ad-free access to over a million songs and hundreds of playlists, and the Kindle Lending Library, which lets you borrow one Kindle Book per month from over 500,000 titles for free on any Kindle device with no due dates. You can share your membership with up to four household members, which means that everyone can benefit for one small fee.


Business and nonprofit leaders, impressed with some recent results in north Minneapolis, are aligning efforts to ramp up training and employment for people of color in hopes of igniting economic growth and spreading wealth throughout the Twin Cities.
The collaborative Center for Economic Inclusion (CFEI) is expected to launch Friday at the Greater MSP "Critical Issues Forum." It will include a charge from employers, trainers, fundraisers and a growing group of other stakeholders to close the employment and wealth gaps for minorities by improving access to transit systems and training while addressing the growing demand for talent and the quest for opportunity.
Tawanna Black, the business and foundation veteran who has run the Northside Funders Group since 2013, started CFEI this year.
"No one in the country has figured this all out," Black said last week. "But we know that some things are working and we all need to be at the table.
Black has been coordinating and measuring human development work among nonprofits for business and foundation partners who are focused on helping low-income households become more self-sufficient. The broader scope, and there's research backing this, is that when those with the least do better economically through personal development, training, employment and housing, we all do better.
Moreover, more than 60,000 people of color could be added to the metro-area workforce by 2022 if employment and labor-force participation equaled that of whites, according to a 2017 report by RealTime Talent & MSPWin.
Our economy is among the strongest, and our unemployment rate among the lowest in the country. However, the Twin Cities also boasts high racial disparities in education, employment, income and homeownership. Business and civic leaders have concluded that we cannot succeed as a region until more people are empowered, trained and economically advanced.
Moreover, it will take more inclusion to address the region's growing talent shortage. Even to maintain a static workforce in the face of baby boomer retirements, we will need to reduce the number of long-term unemployed and dislocated workers by half, 85 percent of whom are people of color.
About 40 percent of Twin Cities residents are projected to be minorities by 2040.
Good news: Minority employment has grown at up to double the rate of overall employment since 2010 in critical areas such as health care, technology, construction and business services. Anecdotal evidence suggests that many of those jobs are at the entry level. It's a start.
The CFEI is a "cross-sector" organization that includes dozens of businesses.
Among Black's key allies is David Mortenson, who leads the national construction firm that has been a leader of the Itasca Group that studies business, education and community issues. Another key backer is Mary Brainerd, the recently retired CEO of HealthPartners.
The Mortenson family and its foundation are seven-figure investors in the Northside Achievement Zone and related organizations that integrate the work of 43 partner schools, nonprofits, trainers and others working with hundreds of low-income families to overcome long-term poverty.
The CFEI will work with funders, business partners, nonprofits and neighborhood groups on the East Side of St. Paul, another diverse, slowly upticking low-income community, and along key city-to-suburban transit corridors. Hennepin and Ramsey counties also are on board.
The center is raising an activist board of investors whose organizations will fund the infrastructure. Greater MSP, the regional economic development organization, will incorporate the inclusive-economy benchmarks and progress into its periodic economic-growth scorecard.
Minority-owned businesses, starting with Minnesota's largest, Thor Cos., generate $5.2 billion in annual revenue and collectively amount to Minnesota's ninth-largest employer. Minority-owned businesses also are growing at 3.5 times the rate of all Minnesota businesses.

Lextinction du Capitanien était un événement d'extinction qui a précédé l'extinction Permien-Trias et s'est produit il y a environ  pendant une période de diminution de la richesse en espèces et d'augmentation des taux d'extinction à la fin du Permien moyen. Il est également connu sous le nom d'extinction de la fin du Guadalupien en raison de sa reconnaissance initiale entre les séries Guadalupien et du Lopingien ; cependant, une étude stratigraphique plus raffinée suggère que des pics d'extinction dans de nombreux groupes taxonomiques se sont produits au Guadalupien, dans la seconde moitié de l'âge Capitanien.

E-Commerce Startup Jet Raises $350 Million, at $1.35 Billion Valuation.
Jet.com Inc. said it had raised $350 million of fresh equity in a new funding round that values the e-commerce startup at $1.35 billion.
Mutual-fund giant Fidelity Investments led the round, joined by previous investors.
Jet said it expects to raise another $150 million "shortly," bringing this round to $500 million.
In addition, Jet it expects to obtain $125 million in debt financing, including a $50 million increase in a credit line from Silicon Valley Bank and $75 million from venture debt investors. It also plans a smaller amount of "strategic financing."
Jet founder and Chief Executive Marc Lore declined to name any other new investors in the round, nor the source of the venture debt or details of the strategic financing.
Jet is challenging Amazon.com Inc., Wal-Mart Stores Inc. and other e-commerce players with an array of household items, electronics, pet supplies and more. It initially planned to sell $50 annual memberships for access to discounted prices, in hopes of attracting more customers to the site, but abandoned that plan in October.
Before the latest financing, Jet had raised about $195 million of equity and debt, said Mr. Lore.
The funding provides a badly needed infusion as the company had been running low on cash.
The Wall Street Journal reported in early November that a recent financial plan showed the company projected it would have $63 million of cash on its balance sheet by the end of October and was forecasting a cash drain of $76 million in November and December. Mr. Lore said Jet now expects to burn less money before the end of the year and to consume about $417 million during 2016.
The membership fee was supposed to help fund Jet's big marketing budget — which Mr. Lore said on Tuesday should be about $270 million for 2016 — with whatever was left providing the company its profit margin. Instead the company will now charge more for products, hoping to break into the black by 2020 when it reaches much larger scale.
The new business model is more "retail and brand friendly," said Mr. Lore. Jet doesn't want to alienate suppliers who don't want their items to appear on a discount site that might undercut other distributors. At the same time, it needs to advertise low prices to attract customers away from rivals like Amazon.com Inc.
Mr. Lore said customers will be attracted by "smart cart" savings that Jet offers when they add multiple items to their order, for example. He said Jet hopes to save on shipping by getting more items into each box sent to customers. He said the average customer order includes 5.5 items and they are shipping 3.1 per box.
Thus far Jet is struggling to break through with consumers despite a large marketing budget that includes TV commercials and outdoor ads in big cities. For instance, Jet's mobile app is currently ranked #63 in the Shopping category of Apple's App Store in the U.S. according to research firm App Annie.

Ryker lance Dattage
"I'll see you in the morning at the finish line."
Categories: 2014, Drowsy Driving, Male, Northern Utah
As part of a weekend family reunion in Bear Lake, Ryker enjoyed a Friday night rodeo with his family and friends. He hugged his family, including his brother, parents, and grandparents, good-bye as he departed to drive a friend back to Cache Valley. As he left he said, "I'll see you in the morning at the finish line," referring to a 5K race that family would be running the following morning. Ryker was up early Saturday morning with every intention of cheering on his family members as they finished the race. Ryker's bank statements showed that he stopped at both Taco Bell and McDonalds before starting his drive through Logan Canyon to Bear Lake.
His family ran the 5K race and found it odd that Ryker was not at the finish line, as he had promised. They enjoyed breakfast together and later gathered at the beach for boating. Family members continually asked, "Where is Ryker?" His parents were unable to reach him on his cellphone. Word spread around Bear Lake that a terrible accident had occurred in Logan Canyon. We assumed Ryker was held up behind the accident or had stopped to assist and this was causing his delays.
By early afternoon, law enforcement officials reached Ryker's Dad on the phone and later, in person to family members with shocking and terrible news. Ryker was in a fatal, head-on collision, while traveling north through Logan Canyon to Bear Lake. Police think Ryker fell asleep while driving and crossed the center line. The vehicle he struck was carrying a Boy Scout troop driving home from a scouting trip. Thankfully, the passengers in the other vehicle received only minor injuries.
Ryker was 18-years-old at the time of the crash. He had just graduated from Sky View High School and had received an L.D.S. mission call to serve for two years in South Dakota. He was a member of the debate team, an Eagle Scout, an avid skier, and the funniest guy in Hyde Park. His accident was a terrible loss not only to his family but to his community.
Ryker loved his church, his family, and his friends. He also loved trucks, semis, cars, and anything with an engine. He wanted to work with his dad, uncle, and grandpa in their family towing and hauling business. More than that though, he wanted to be a nice guy who loved other people, had time for them, and made them happy. We miss him every single day! We miss that big grin he had, his funny jokes, and the way he made us feel. Ryker, we will "see you at the finish line!"

Tesla says solar roof is on its third iteration, currently installing in 8 states
Tesla is currently installing its solar roof product in eight states, according to Elon Musk, speaking at the Tesla Annual Shareholder Meeting on Tuesday. The solar roof-tile project has had a relatively long genesis since being unveiled three years ago, in 2016.
In 2017, the company claimed its first-ever installations of the Tesla solar roof, after opening up orders for the product in the second quarter of that year. Musk noted during the company's Q2 2017 earnings call that both himself and Tesla CTO JB Straubel had the tiles installed and operating on their homes.
The company also announced last year that it had entered into a partnership with Home Depot to sell its solar panels, along with its PowerWall home battery, but that was about its traditional panels specifically, not the new tile product. The tiles are designed to look like high-quality home tiles people use currently, with integrated solar panels that are not easily identified from ground level, in order to provide a more aesthetically pleasing solution.
In addition to having installations run in eight states, Musk said the solar roof product is currently on version three, and that this version is very exciting to him because it offers a chance of being at cost parity with an equivalent entry-level cheap traditional tile, when you include the cost of utilities you'd be saving by generating your own power instead.
Regarding timelines for wider rollout of the solar roof products at the costs he anticipates, his own words probably say it best: "I'm sometimes a little optimistic about time frames — it's time you knew," he joked at the meeting.

2019 Xzavier Jones
UPDATE WITH 2019 G XZAVIER JONES
Greendale Martin Luther 2019 guard Xzavier Jones has. Long been a player many expected would eventually begin to draw NCAA Division I offers and his time has finally come. A long, rangy 6'5, 175-pound talent working to transition over to the lead guard position, Jones has taken time to develop into the player he is today as he started as a youngster primarily playing inside. But over the years he has worked on his perimeter skills and blossomed as a guard.
He showcased those skills last weekend at the 2017 NY2LA Sports Futures Camp in Chicago, Ill., taking the ball to the bucket and breaking down defenders off the bounce. He consistently attacked the basket where he has the ability to play above the rim and make tough chances look easy.
"Since I was little, everyone tried to play me as a big man," Jones said. "But I'm more than that. This whole summer I've been working on my ball handling and my jump shot. I'm more of a combo guard. I get up and down. I have fun."
Jones put together a big summer competing for Playground Elite and says the experience has helped his game blossom as he gears up for his junior season of high school ball.
"I had a good summer, had to be more of a leader," he says. "I have some younger guys on my team. I had to be a general on the floor. I just transitioned to a point guard this year. And I'm excited. It's a new role. There's more things I have to worry about now. It's not just myself. I'll have to have the ball and make calls and play hard."
Jones currently holds offers from IUPUI, Bradley, St. Louis and Green Bay and has also drawn interest from a host of other programs as well, including Iowa, Nebraska, UNLV, Tulsa, Butler, UWM and Drake. UNLV recently visited his high school to watch a work out.
Jones says he is still continuing to work on his jump shot as he eyes a future in the college game.
"I need a jump shot as a point guard," he says. "When I get to college, I need to have more to my game. The next level will be tough. I have to keep adding things so I can be hard to guard. I don't want anyone to figure me out."
