ACEC's Beaubien Award recognizes individuals for their lifetime contributions to the advancement of the consulting engineering profession and industry.
Norm Huggins, P.Eng.
Norm Huggins is known for his outstanding leadership and his contributions to the consulting engineering industry. He is highly regarded by the many colleagues who have developed their careers under his tutelage as well as the communities that have benefited from his expertise.
Norm started his career at CH2M HILL, formerly known as Gore and Storrie, as a summer student in 1966. He joined the company full-time upon graduating with a degree in Civil Engineering from Queen's University and this year, as Senior Vice-President, he celebrates his 45th year with CH2M HILL.
Norm has given a lifetime of service, since 1972, to ACEC and Consulting Engineers of Ontario, advocating in the interest of engineers to governments, clients and the public. Throughout his career he has also dedicated time and effort with the Toronto and Ontario chapters of the Engineering Institute of Canada and the Pollution Control Association of Ontario.
During his tenure on the Board of ACEC-Canada and as Chair, Norm was a strong advocate for the use of Qualifications-Based Selection for the procurement of professional engineering services. During this time, ACEC collaborated with the National Guide to Sustainable Municipal Infrastructure, also known as InfraGuide. As a result, when InfraGuide released its best practice for selecting a professional consultant, Qualifications-Based Selection was the recommended procurement method. This is one of the most important achievements of the consulting engineering sector in recent memory. To this day, ACEC continues to promote InfraGuide and Qualifications-Based Selection.
One of Norm's greatest interests has been to encourage more young people to enter the consulting engineering industry. He identified building human capital as one of his goals as Chair of ACEC-Canada and is known as a great mentor and model to other engineers for his quiet leadership, ethical behaviour, and strength in bringing groups together to accomplish common objectives.
As a recipient of the Beaubien Award, Norm joins a list of over 30 individuals who have been identified by their peers for their outstanding contributions to the consulting engineering industry and engineering profession. The award was created by ACEC in 1984 in honour of Dr. James de Gaspé Beaubien, who founded ACEC in 1925.

Here come the Greeks! Can Euro underdogs beat the odds in Brazil?
Tom Gatehouse
The Greece squad for the 2014 World Cup was announced on Monday, with manager Fernando Santos keeping faith with key striker Kostas Mitroglou, despite the striker having struggled for fitness during his disastrous four months at the now relegated Fulham. The 25-year-old was named in Santos' cut, with the likes of the Bundesliga, Serie A, and the Scottish Premier League all contributing players to the final 23-man squad, including Georgios Samaras, Sokratis Papastathopoulos and Vassilis Torosidis.
The World Cup is now only 21 days away, and excitement is starting to build. Greece will take on Colombia, Japan and Ivory Coast in Group C, and they will have to be at their best to progress to the last-16. The tournament comes ten years after Greece dramatic Euro 2004 win in Portugal, and will be the final World Cup for Greek hero Giorgos Karagounis.
The 37-year-old Greek captain, who spent last season with Mitroglou at Fulham, is the country's most capped player, having appeared 132 times for the national setup, and will lead the side in Brazil for the very last time. He is remembered best outside of his home country for scoring the first goal of Euro 2004 with a long-range piledriver against the hosts Portugal.
It was a tournament that Greece went on to win in dramatic circumstances, and the World Cup this summer comes ten years after that famous night in Lisbon; could they pull off another shock? Betting on the World Cup has become a tricky business, what with so many formidable challengers for the trophy, but Greece won many punters a lot of money with their triumph in the European Championships all those years ago, and if you were to pick an underdog based on know-how, it would surely be them! If you fancy a flutter this summer, on Greek games or anything else World Cup 2014, head on over to Luckybet.gr.

The emphasis which should be put on material for the Co-ordination Chemistry Section is open to individual interpretation, and for this presentation the major theme is the relationship between the chemical structure and properties of the compounds and their anti-tumour activities (i. e. Structure—Activity Relationships). There is some overlap with Session II and several papers could have been presented in either section. The intention is to summarise briefly the known relationships and existing data, and then to discuss research which is at present in progress as described in the submitted papers. Where possible an attempt is made to indicate areas which might usefully be pursued for gaining a better understanding of this new and fascinating area of inorganic research. It should be pointed out that this Session also contains papers which discuss transition metals other than platinum.

The Nine Lives of Pinrut the Turnip Boy by Reg Down
This is one of the newer Reg Down books, "The Nine Lives of Pinrut the Turnip Boy." From the author: "This book began as a lark but kept on growing - especially when teachers and parents contacted me and said their kids loved this slightly zany, fast-paced tale. His fans have been of mixed ages, too: grade 3, 4, 5, 6 - also the kids in a grade 8 were highly amused by him and inspired to write similar tales of their own as part of their writing block."
"There was once a turnip. He was an ordinary turnip, one you'd pass by without noticing. He grew in a row of turnips, one of many rows of turnips in a field that was one of many fields of turnips. That's how ordinary this turnip was. Neither bigger, nor smaller, nor fatter, nor skinnier, nor longer, nor sweeter, nor more peppery: that's how he was. And he had company, as you can imagine, for there were lots like him - thousands in fact. One summer's evening this turnip up and left. He'd had enough. He pulled himself from the ground, turned upside down, and took off on his leafy stalks. He ambled along the row and out of the field. "Hey, you can't do that!" cried the other turnips. "Watch me," said the turnip. And watch him we will, through all nine lives: in America, Canada, China, New Zealand, New Guinea, Mars and Wobbles. Naturally he has a few adventures on the way, but his skills and savvy, indeed, his sheer existence, also come to the attention of the devilish boss of a nefarious GMO seed corporation called Nonsanto. Need we say more?!"
Sample chapter: The First Life of Pinrut the Turnip Boy
128pp, 6" x 9", paperbound, black and white illustrations.
Recommended for ages 9 through 12, but the whole family may just gather around to hear if it's read aloud!

Harborcreek Youth Services' Community Residential Rehabilitation (CRR) Host Home Therapeutic Program provides youth with individualized mental health care in a foster family setting. CRR Host Home Care is an excellent alternative to placement in a residential treatment facility, and is also useful as a step-down intervention to ease a youth's re-entry into the community.
We Want to Hear From You...Please Complete our Survey!
If we were to have a recruitment event, what type of event would you be most interested in/do you feel would be the most successful?
Harborcreek Youth Services is currently seeking Host Home Parents for our CRR Program. Youth are placed individually in a family setting for an average of six to nine months. What makes our program a "treatment program" is a collaborative team approach involving CRR Host Home Parents, biological parents, therapists, and the youth. All these groups work together to ensure that the youth's emotional, behavioral, and educational needs are addressed, the families are supported, and all identified problems are resolved as much as possible.
CRR Host Home Parents and others over the age of 14 who are living in the home must obtain proof that they have no history of physically or sexually abusing youth and have no convictions for committing certain crimes within a specified period of time.
CRR Host Home Parent Application!
Harborcreek Youth Services' CRR Host Home Parents are given ongoing supervision, support, and respite care, as well as a monthly stipend. Emergency assistance is available at all times. In addition, all CRR Host Home Parents are provided with free training. CRR Host Home Parents will have all the tools they need prior to initial placement to ensure that the youth's stay is a beneficial experience for everyone.
For more information about program requirements, please call 814-899-7664, extension 333.
Every youth deserves a chance, and CRR Host Home Parenting is a great way to offer a youth a new and better life. Make a positive impact on the life of a youth in need of stability, guidance, and love. We look forward to talking with you and welcoming you to our team!
Who would be joining my home?
Children and youth from Erie County who have a mental health diagnosis and behavioral concerns would be joining your home. These are boys and girls ages 4-18 years old.
CRR is a higher level of foster care and treatment for the youth of Erie County. They receive extensive training to help youth with special needs cope. Each youth also receives in-home individual and family therapy by a Masters Level Clinician.
How old are the youth?
They are between the ages of 4 and 18 years old.
Can I adopt the youth in my home?
If the youth is approved for adoption, we will help you connect with the agency that is representing the youth to explore the possibility of adoption.
Typically, the youth/youth is in your home for 6-9 months. However, it could be longer depending on the individual youth's circumstances.
How will HYS help/support me?
HYS will provide you with all initial pre-service training and an additional 24 hours per year for ongoing training at no charge to you. We also provide 24/7 support to you and the youth joining your home.
I'm single. Do I qualify?
Single parents are welcome to apply.
I've heard HYS is affiliated with Catholic Charities, but I'm not Catholic. Can I be a CRR Host Home Parent?
Yes, you are able to participate in the program no matter what your religious background. We welcome anyone who is willing to open their heart and home!
You'll need to complete an application, have a home study completed, and pass a home inspection that will be reviewed by our recruitment committee.
I've heard that HYS is just "bad kids" - will I be living with a criminal?!
HYS supports youth who have been traumatized and have a higher level of behavioral health needs. Our program also serves youth who are adjudicated, delinquent or truant and who may be involved with the Erie County Office of Juvenile Probation. The youth's history is always shared with CRR Host Home Parents prior to placement. CRR Host Home Parents are always free to refuse to accept a youth for placement without jeopardizing their status with our agency.
I work - what kind of schedule do I need to have to do this?
Since there are important appointments for the youth such as meetings with their therapist, a psychiatrist, and teachers, you may need flexibility in your schedule in order to meet these necessary requirements. If you work full-time and have the ability to flex your schedule then please feel free to apply. For our part, our team will always work to adjust our schedules to work with your availability.
I have other kids - is this a good idea for me?
Please be mindful that Host Home youth have a history trauma. Children who have been traumatized may have complex needs. If your own children can cope with behaviors displayed by another youth and are willing to accept a new addition to the family, then please apply. We'll be working extensively with you throughout the process to find the perfect fit from both your family and the youth we serve.
I live in a trailer/apartment/etc. - is that ok?
Living in an apartment or trailer is ok. Your home must pass a home inspection and you must carry renter's insurance. In addition to the requirements mentioned above, we will review a complete list of state-mandated residential requirements during the application process.
You are required by the state to receive at least 24 hours of pre-service training, and additional training each year at no cost to you.
No, this is not a paid position, and you will not be an employee of Harborcreek Youth Services. You will receive a daily stipend for each overnight stay of a Host youth in your home.
If it doesn't work out, we will continue to train and support you in order for you to provide respite care or to become a temporary Host Home for another youth.
I have a sister/friend/aunt/etc. who would be perfect for this. What should I do?
Please spread the word and tell them to contact Program Director Tiahana Martinez at 814-899-7664 ext. 333. We are also always willing to come speak about our program to your group or organization.
Can I pick the youth I want?
You can state a preference such as a boy or girl or an age range. However, the role of our Program Director is to make the match between the youth and their strengths and needs and a CRR Host Home Parent. You will have the option to accept or decline having the youth join your home. Our goal is to make a great match between CRR Host Home Parents and Host Home kids so both of you can succeed!
How many Host Home Children can be placed in my home?
Will the Host Home youth's family be involved?
Yes, the youth's natural or adoptive parents or another discharge resource may be involved in treatment. The youth may also have visits with siblings.
All potential CRR Host Home Parents must have a primary source of income other than the stipend they receive from being a CRR Host Home Parent. Proof of financial stability without hardship is required as part of the application process.
Depending on the illness, you would take them for medical treatment and continue to provide care to them as if they were your own child.
Can I take them to church/religious services with me?
Yes, you may, if the youth and family are in agreement.
Can I take them on vacation?
Yes, you may take them on vacation.
What if I can't/don't want to be a full-time Host Home Parent?
You can also become a Respite Provider for our program! Respite Providers go through the same application process, but care for youth on a part-time basis as little as one day per month. Many families try Respite Care as a way of seeing if becoming a Host Home is a good "fit," then progress to becoming full-time Homes later on.
I want to help, but I can't take care of a Host Home youth. What can I do?
You can always help us by passing along our information to friends and family who may be interested in becoming Host Home Parents.
From your initial application, to welcoming a youth in your home, the process takes an average of approximately nine months. During that time period, you'll receive training, resources, and support from our entire team. We look forward to welcoming you!


ARIOPHANTIDAE are a terrestrial molluscan family that has a geographical range throughout Southeast Asia. Among the more than 65 Ariophantid genera classified in 6 subfamilies, this helical-shaped group is by no means mundane. The boldly banded Asperitas from Indonesia, and the brightly colored Naninia and Elaphroconcha of Indonesia and New Guinea are representative of the more showy Ariophantid genera. The Genus Dyakia of Indonesia, and the species Ariophanta laevipes from India, the type species of the genus, are naturally sinistral. Some species reach three inches in diameter and others a scant five millimeters. A few of the more colorful species exhibit an extraordinary range of color variation. Species such as Naninia citrina can be found in an almost unlimited number of color variations within a single population. Others such as Asperitas trochus vary within individual populations and throughout its range. Some of the varieties are given subspecific status. Even the most drab and unicolored Ariophantid species have subtle characteristics that make them appealing.
LITERATURE: Most of the literature pertaining to Ariophantidae are scattered in a pethora of monographs and scientific publications. Among the popular land shell literature, Compendium of Landshells, by R.Tucker Abbott is the best starting point for indentification of the group, illustrating representatives of the larger and more showy genera. It would take many Web pages to list all of the pertinent literature that include references to the Ariophantidae.
Ref.: Zilch, A., 1959-60. Gastropoda Teil 2 Euthyneura, in Schindewolf, O. H., ed., Handbuch der Paläozoologie, Berlin, Borntraeger, p. I-XII + I-XII, 1-834.
Ariophanta laevipes (Müller, 1774) - India, 25mm - The type species of the genus. Geographically limited in range to India. Banded and unbanded forms exist. Asperitas everetti (E.A. Smith, 1897) - Indonesia, 61mm - Limited to central and eastern Flores Island. The green color is periostracum, which varies in intensity and hue among the various geographical populations. It grows to be one of the largest Asperitas species, and undoubtedly one of the most beautiful. Asperitas stuartiae (Sowerby, 1845) - Indonesia, 29-34mm - A rare species limited to the islands off of southern Sulawesi. The patterns of fine encircling bands varies considerably. The shell is thin and fragile.
Asperitas trochus (Müller, 1774) - Indonesia, 27-34mm - A pure white form endemic to one island in the Komodo Islands. The color and patterns of the species varies throughout the range of the species in the Nusa Tenggara region. Elaphroconcha cochlostyloides (Schepman, 1892) - Indonesia, 33-41mm - Endemic to Sumba Island. One of the more capricious Ariophantid species where the color transforms during growth, probably influenced by environmental changes. Elaphroconcha cochlostyloides viridis (Schepman, 1892) - Indonesia, 35-44mm - Some populations contain specimens that have predominantly green shells which were designated as E. c. viridis. Many of the populations exhibit very different and distinct color forms, yet in a large series the color forms show many similarities. The white band is a cuticle-like periostracum. The brown coloration is also periostracum.

Following the Walkers: A Sunday afternoon hike.
We took Gus up to Devil's Hopyard in between the rains this weekend. Despite his domestic tendencies, he's completely in his element in the woods. He runs off exploring, dipping his feet in shallow creek water and sniffing every single tree (the most thorough form of hiking). For a while, the only sound in the world seemed to be his heavy breathing and our footfall on waterlogged leaves. And I couldn't remember the last time I felt silence.


Summary: [This abstract is based on the authors' abstract.] A derivation of the distribution of C(pk) for a normally distributed quality characteristic is proposed. The formula is based on the folded normal distribution when the sample mean and the sample standard deviation are independent. The resulting formula can be implemented in any modern math package. The ARL performance of a control chart based on C(pk) is compared with the performance of X-bar and R charts.


Gawain has headed over the Irish Sea via plane this time to play the Kilkenny Masters held in Kilkenny, Ireland. This year's event included more or less the same players from the 2010 Kilkenny Masters with players such as Ivan Cheparinov, Sebastian Maze and Mark Hebden. Hopefully we'll be able to check out the live games if everything is in order and there will be updates on the ICU(Irish Chess Union) website.
Gawain has also confirmed his participation in the 2012 MP Reykjavik Open. I loved Reykjavik when we went in October and I highly recommend visiting for chess players and their non chess playing partners. According to NASA winter 2011/2012 is supposed to be the best time to see the Northern Lights! We missed out on seeing it last time as the moon was too bright but I hope to go back and get a glimpse.


A beautifully structured mix of bright fruit and Burgundian-style creaminess, our 2011 Sierra Mar Chardonnay opens with aromas of honeysuckle and fresh hazelnut. The firm palate shows good acidity and a mix of lemon custard, ginger and mango flavors leading to the very long, citrus and toast-tinged finish.
Our 2011 Santa Lucia Highlands Pinot Noir opens with the most inviting, fresh, young Pinot nose of Christmas spine, carbonic notes and wet gravel. On the palate firm tannins and good acidity carry back cherry, sweet rhubarb and berry notes through to the earthy, loamy finish.

Home/Business/DIT to extend EU anti-dumping duty on bikes from China
DIT to extend EU anti-dumping duty on bikes from China
Rebecca Morley 6th January 2021	Business
The Department for International Trade (DIT) is to keep EU anti-dumping rules on bikes from China and several other countries.
The Secretary of State for International Trade Liz Truss has determined the anti-dumping duty on bicycles and certain bicycle parts originating in the People's Republic of China, including bicycles consigned from Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Pakistan, the Philippines, Sri Lanka and Tunisia, is to be 'transitioned'.
This determination follows a Call for Evidence conducted by the DIT to identify anti-dumping and countervailing duties imposed by the EU it would be appropriate to transition in the UK system.
"The identified trade remedies measure will be transitioned so it will continue to apply when the UK begins operating an independent trade remedies system," said a statement on the DIT's website. "This is once the UK ceases to apply the EU's Common External Tariff, unless this notice is revoked, or the EU terminates the measure before the UK begins operating an independent trade remedies system.
"A transition review will be conducted to assess whether the trade remedies measure is appropriate to the UK. The Trade Remedies Authority (or pending establishment, the Secretary of State) will assess whether the measure is necessary or sufficient to prevent or remove injury to UK industry and whether there would be injury to UK industry if it were no longer applied.
"The result of the transition review will be a recommendation (or, pending establishment of the Trade Remedies Authority, a preliminary determination) that the measure be varied or revoked."

The first thing to have when designing a commercial kitchen is of course the vision. You need to have an idea about the type of kitchen, the location, the design, the size, and the general mode of operation. This information is then brought to your kitchen hospitality design specialist and gone over in detail. The initial plan will be explored, reinforced, and made into a feasible plan that allows for budget constraints, finance options, and a more specifically attuned equipment list.
Formulate a clear and thought-out plan.
Budget / finance plan & equipment ideas.
After the initial step you should have a well-rounded idea that fits both your initial vision and the commercial kitchen consultant's advice. From here, the next step is a visit to the site to get measurements and an experience of the area. This new information is then brought back to the original plan where adjustments are made.
Site measured and information recorded.
Layout sketched and updated with new information.
Plan adapted and updated to suit new details.
Now that the vision is fully thought-out, the site has been measured, and the details are collected the technical designing can begin. Our in-house design team create a 3D representation of the kitchen-to-be that offers a glimpse of the finished product from any angle. This allows for extremely precise attunement of the design and the equipment that may include custom fabrication options.
Kitchen representation created as 3D model.
Customised items designed and added.
Commercial kitchens come in a variety of shapes and sizes, as you would know by this stage. As such, the large stainless steel kitchen equipment and surfaces will likely need to be customised in order to optimise the space and flow of the kitchen. Our design team create (and modify) custom stainless steel items including benches, canopies, and wall sheeting, refrigerators and other large items. This is carried out by our in-house fabrication team.
Custom items designed and added to plan.
Customised equipment drawn-up and added.
Items are fabricated and prepared for delivery.
Once the custom items have been made, and the equipment that needed customisation has been modified, the next stage is to get everything delivered and installed. This process includes getting the dates and times set, having all the right people ready to work, and getting everything moved, fitted, attached, plugged in, plumbed up, and finally taking off the scratch-resistant plastic.
Items packed up and delivered.
Kitchen equipment and items installed.
Once everything is installed and the kitchen is ready to use the next step is to deliver all the small kitchen items that you need (pots, pans, spatulas, and so on). After that, the kitchen is completely fitted out. You will have a collection of user-manuals, documentation and other important paperwork that should be stored away securely. If you need service or support, call us.
Kitchen stocked with small items.
Paperwork is securely and safely stored.

Taye Diggs '93, well-known actor and alumnus of the Department of Drama in Syracuse University's College of Visual and Performing Arts (VPA), will return to the SU campus March 29-30 to offer dance and acting workshops to more than 200 drama students. He will also take part in a question-and-answer session that is free and open to the public on Sunday, March 30, from 11 a.m.-noon in the John D. Archbold Theatre of Syracuse Stage, 820 E. Genesee St., Syracuse.
Diggs will be joined in the workshops and Q&A by New York City-based performer and choreographer Andrew Palermo, his childhood friend. The Rochester, N.Y., natives formed the contemporary dance company dre.dance in 2004, which provides master classes in contemporary dance, musical theater, hip-hop, jazz and acting/audition techniques, in addition to performance. The first of their two dance workshops will focus on dance repertory from the hit Broadway musical "Wicked," while the second will concentrate on modern/contemporary dance. They will also teach a television and film acting workshop.
The pair's dre.dance recently completed a residency at Wichita State University, teaching classes and setting the first section of their new work "beyond.words." This new piece centers on the autistic spectrum and will continue to be developed as part of the company's current residency at Joyce SoHo in New York City. In addition, dre.dance is in its second year as artist in residence at the Tribeca Performing Arts Center (PAC) in New York City. This residency will culminate in fall 2008, at which time the company will present a collaborative evening-length work with composer Rob Reddy, also a Tribeca PAC artist in residence.
Palermo graduated from UCC-CM with a B.F.A. in musical theater. His stage choreography has been seen at the New Amsterdam Theatre, Carnegie Hall, the Hudson Theatre, 37 Arts, the Douglas Fairbanks Theatre, the New York City Festival of Dance 2005, the Old Globe, Prince Music Theater, the Repertory Theatre of St. Louis, Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park, Music Theatre of Wichita and Sacramento Music Circus. For the camera, he has choreographed for Comedy Central's "Stella" and the film "Holey Habits," as well as commercials for G-Shock and Showtime/Apple.
Diggs and Palermo's visit is sponsored by VPA and UEncounter, an SU initiative that funds programs that allow for students, artists, performers and/or field professionals to interact with one another. For more information about the visit, contact Hale at kahale@syr.edu. For more information about dre.dance, visit http://www.dredance.com.


In search of a chewy chocolaty cookie, I found this recipe at Enlightened Cooking. They were quick and easy to mix up, but I found them a little crispy once they cooled. After spending the night with a piece of bread in the cookie tin though, they were perfectly chewy for my tastes!
Sift together flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, beat sugar and butter on high until well blended. Beat in the vanilla and egg until blended. Mix in flour mixture and chocolate chips until just blended.
Drop by spoonfuls, two inches apart, onto greased/parchment/silpat cookie sheet. Flatten slightly. Bake approximately 12 minutes or until puffed in the center. Remove from oven and cool on pan for 5 minutes, before cooling completely on wire racks.
Do you have a recipe for a double-chocolate cookie that is chewy by nature (ie: without the bread trick)? Share it!

Q: Navigation Link only works once in SwiftUI In apples SwiftUI code tutorial called BuildingListsAndNavigation, they show you how to use NavigationLinks. However, once you click the link then hit the navigation back button, the same link is disabled till you hit another link, then hit the back button again.
This issue doesn't just happen with apple's SwiftUI tutorial, it happens in my own SwiftUI projects as well. How do I make it so I can click the same link twice in a row?
Here is some example code
struct LandmarkList: View {
    var body: some View {
        NavigationView {
            List(0 ..< 5) { number in
                NavigationLink(destination: Text("next page")) {
                        Text("Row\(number)")
                }
            }
            .navigationBarTitle(Text("Landmarks"))
        }
    }
}

A: There are 2 major bugs with NavigationLink right now. The first is the one you mention about you cannot visit the same link twice. If you decide to add a second link so that to at least test your UI you hit the second bug which is when you tap the second link then after it pushes it then pops back to root.
This is with the latest Xcode Version 11.3 (11C29) and its included iOS 13.3 (17C45) Simulator.
iOS 13.3 (17C45) on iPhone XR doesn't have these bugs which is very strange given it is the same build number as the Simulator.

A: It works on devices not on simulator.

A: Seems that bug is fixed on Xcode 11.4

Cayuga Community College on track for enrollment growth from last year
Published: 06/22/2018 @ 08:00 am
Summer is bringing an increase in admissions to Cayuga Community College.
College president Brian Durant said after a board of trustees meeting Thursday night that while the college's 2017-2018 budget was built on a flat enrollment rate of 2,550 full-time equivalents, the college is on track to have realized over 2,600 full-time equivalents this year.
While the college has been on pace to be up, Durant said, strong summer enrollment thus far will put the institution over their expectations and to possibly "have our first year of growth from one year to another in several years."
"Any time that we know more students are choosing us to take advantage of what we're offering to them, it feels great," Durant said. He credited the college's marketing work, the admissions and enrollment team and faculty and staff for the potential uptick.

After recent cases of Dengue in Bengaluru, many residents are looking for preventive measures. And many are discussing Ovitrap as an effective preventive measure that can trap mosquitoes that spread Dengue. How effective is Ovitrap in Bangalore?
We have to understand what is Dengue and how does Ovitrap work. Dengue is a vector-borne disease, caused by mosquitoes that breed on water. A mosquito named Aedes Aegypti is the host of Dengue virus. Researchers say that most Aedes Aegypti do not fly beyond than 100 metres, and bite only during day time.
What is a lethal Ovitrap?
Lethal Ovitrap is a modified version of Ovitrap, developed in 1966. Ovitraps that were used for mosquito surveillance were later modified to trap the mosquitoes and kill them.
There are three types of Ovitraps: Lethal Ovitrap, autocidal Ovitrap and sticky Ovitrap. Lethal Ovitrap makes use of insecticide, while autocidal Ovitrap traps the mosquito and kills them. Sticky Ovitrap makes use of a sticky substance on which the female mosquitoes get stuck.
Advocates of lethal Ovitrap say that the Aedes Aegypti find Ovitraps as an ideal location to lay their eggs, though there is no scientific proof to it.
In 1990s, two U S military research scientists Michael Perich of the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research (WRAIR) and Brian Zeichner of the U S Army Center for Health Promotion and Preventive Medicine, developed the first Lethal Mosquito Breeding Container. It was a result of modification of Ovitrap, which was initially invented in 1966 to monitor the Aedes Aegypti and Aedes Albopictus population.
Many countries like Singapore, Brazil and United States of America have found making use of such lethal traps to keep a check on Dengue useful. However there has been no substantial proof that the population of mosquitoes were really affected.
World Health Organisation has not endorsed it as a successful tool to reduce the incidences of Dengue. It is still being experimented along with other tools like insecticide treated materials. Apparently,when Singapore made used of lethal Ovitraps the incidences of Dengue fell considerably. However, apart from Singapore in no other country it has been proved successful.
World Health Organisation (WHO) has not given any permanent solution for Dengue. WHO recommends people keep their surroundings clean, keep gutters free flowing, etc. to avoid breeding of mosquitoes. Easy, immediate and most effective way to stop the breeding of mosquitoes is to eliminate waterlog in and around your house.
Bottle A : One-litre plastic bottle. Paint it with black color and cut it into half.
Bottle B: Quarter litre bottle, paint half of it with black color. Fill water in it.
A circular mesh. There should be a hole in the centre, like donut. It should be big enough for the lower end of the bottle A to fit in it.
Place the mesh inside the bowl.
Pour water in the bowl until the mesh starts floating at the brim of the bowl.
Make two holes on two opposite sides of the lower half of bottle A.
Place lower half of bottle A over the bowl, between the mesh.
Press bottle A until water enters it.
Make a hole at the bottom of the bottle B and place it over lower half of bottle A. Bottle B will act as a reservoir when the water level in the bowl decreases.
Now place the top half of the bottle A over its lower half.
Your autocidal lethal Ovitrap is ready to use.
Female mosquitoes lay eggs on the mesh. These eggs fall beneath the mesh into the water, where they will be transformed into an adult mosquito, but cannot come out. Mesh obstructs it from escaping and it eventually dies.
This is how autocidal Ovitrap works. To make the lethal Ovitrap, you should add insecticide on the mesh. To make it a sticky Ovitrap, make use of sticky substances on the surface of the mesh that will trap the adult mosquitoes.
Remember to monitor your Ovitrap frequently, to prevent it from becoming a productive habitat for mosquitoes.
Initially when the device was invented, it was used to monitor the mosquito population and for researches. But will Ovitrap be successful in the Bangalore setting, is still an open question.
Dr. Kasturi Arvind, Department of Community Health and Medicine, St Johns Medical College said, "Theoretically yes, Ovitrap can stop breeding of mosquitoes but how feasible it will be, is still a question, as Bangalore has diverse breeding areas." The prerequisite to using a Ovitrap is, there has to be sufficient amount of sanitation in the area, to ensure that mosquitoes don't breed elsewhere, he added.
Dr. Arvind said people are better off taking precautions, wearing full-sleeved clothes, and avoiding unnecessary storage of water in buckets or tanks.

A shooting on Minnesota 65 in Fridley left one person seriously injured and snarled traffic during rush hour on Wednesday afternoon, Feb. 14, police say.
Officers were dispatched about 4:20 p.m. to the scene of a crash at Minnesota 65 and Medtronic Parkway, according to a news release issued by the Fridley Police Department. Multiple 911 callers reported that a man involved in the crash was armed with a knife and was attempting to assault another driver.
While officers were en route, a motorist who was not involved in the crash stopped his car to intervene, the news release said. This man was armed with a handgun and shot the knife-wielding man several times, according to the news release.
The wounded man was transported to a nearby hospital with life-threatening injuries; the man who shot him remained at the scene and is cooperating with investigators, the news release said.
A second person, who was injured in the crash, was also transported to a hospital with injuries that were not considered life-threatening.
The incident closed Minnesota 65 to traffic between Interstate 694 and Moore Lake Drive for about five hours.

Hi everyone. Please check your updated grades. I will submit them tonight. If you turned in something and it is not showing up please let me know. Otherwise, all the points are entered.
Thank you everyone, it was my pleasure to be your instructor. You all did amazing with the Cohen monster theory.


As a quick recap of our component choice, we had our hearts set to go wide, yet achieve a professional, show-oriented appearance. The first piece settled on was the Rocket Bunny V1 fender flare kit due to its availability. To add an aggressive, low and functional stance to the build, we went with the APR carbon fiber air dam and will be installing a custom splitter beneath it. From there, we chose the STILLEN side skirts and rear bumper flares to help carry the lines of the wide-body throughout the entire car. Beneath the side skirts, we picked up a set of Seibon TA-style carbon fiber lips that help extend the lines from the front to the back and will meet with the custom-fabricated rear splitter. We went into heavy detail on why we chose the parts we did and dove into our appearance objectives in our last article.
Before we dive into the magic at SLVA, we want to share a few words from Paul. We picked his brain a bit about what it takes to alter the look of a car in a professional manner, and he said, "Anyone can bolt on a wide-body kit; the real art and craftsmanship is in the mating of the lines of the kit with the existing lines of the car in such a way that the body kit looks OEM." He continued, "Custom bodywork is 'MacGuyver'ing' things, custom tabbing, fabbed brackets or parts. It's the art of figuring out how to make these parts fit and work together even if sometimes it appears there's no way they will fit." And we couldn't agree more.
After the initial lay up, we began the process of trimming pieces and double-checking fitment. Because we're custom molding the kit, we needed to trim and shape a lot of the components to use as a base to build off of. Since the Rocket Bunny V1 kit is designed to be riveted onbut we planned to mold it inthere were a lot of unnecessary tabs that we had to remove.
Once a piece was trimmed, it was taped back onto the car in order to double check alignment with the natural lines of the car. Any fastening systems (i.e. double stick tape) were removed and we were ready to attach that piece to the vehicle.
Now that the components have been modified to fit correctly, each part was glued with panel glue that is rated at two hundred mph. Surprisingly enough, panel glue is actually much stronger than the metal it's attached to. It's been known, in the event of a crash, that the panel and glue will remain completely intact. The new pieces were also screwed onto the original body panels to ensure they didn't move during the curing process. Once cured (typically a day), the screws were removed and molding preparation began.
The next step was the molding process where the aim was to integrate the new body components into the car's existing panels. To initiate this process, each part of the body kit was sanded down to match the bodylines of the car. This is a critical step in the process since we're looking to achieve a factory-like appearance with the aggressive look and function of the wide-body. Harsh edges were smoothly tapered down and fit flush against the body panel they're affixed to so we could eliminate any telltale seams in the kit.
After molding was complete, SLVA applied a layer of fiberglass to the freshly molded areas of the car. This was done to smooth out any screw holes from the attachment stage, cracks or imperfections left by the molding of the body kit panels, and added more material to work with allowing each panel to be seamlessly molded and shaped into the body. Once the fiberglass was cured, it was sanded down and shaped to form lines that mimic the original lines of the car.
With the bulk of the heavy lifting completed on the exterior we come to the last step that helps complete the car's new identity: the paint. To finish the prep work, the fiberglass areas are sanded smooth and any remaining imperfections are filled and sanded flush. The entire vehicle is then prepped and primed to go into the paint booth.
After the fresh coats of paint are applied by SLVA, the vehicle will require a wet sand process to remove any lingering imperfections in the finish in order to obtain the show-quality finish that we require. This will be completed once the car returns to SLVA one hundred percent together as to not damage the overall finish of the car.
Now with the bodywork more or less complete, we'll transport the BRZ back to SCR Performance where we'll finish up the performance aspects of the build. There they will drop the engine back into the car and install all of the drivetrain suspension and components. Once we receive the new wheels from Advan in a few weeks, we'll go ahead and install the new brakes as well.
Momentum has really picked up with the build and we're nearing the last steps before we enter the tuning phase. As always, we wouldn't be where we are now in this build without the diligent work and long hours from our partners!
