Thousands in shock to realise the Koala is clinging for hope
The annual Entijuanarte Festival, Tijuana Mexico has a new attraction this year; an art installation featuring Australia's cuddly koala. While tens of thousands are gathering to enjoy the giant koala bear, they are shocked to realise there are threats to the future of the species.
California based artist Jerome Sli says "I embarked on this project after seeing a WIRES image of a koala lost and confused in an environment that had clearly been desolated by logging. Habitat loss is a major threats to many species around the world."
"No matter how you look at this image, it is clear there is something wrong. I contacted WIRES immediately to see how we might work together to show case this issue at the 2013 Festival Entijuanarte."
Over 100,000 people have visited the 9th festival Entijuanarte which is hosted annually on the border of Mexico and California at the famous Cecut building. The koala clings to a biblical like statue with a backdrop of the image that inspired the artist.
"It is a wonderful opportunity to be able to raise awareness about the plight of our cuddly creature. There isn't a soul around the world who doesn't adore our koala," says WIRES Spokesperson.
"The response to this project is overwhelming and is above and beyond our expectations. The people have Mexico have great affection for the koala and are devastated to hear its vulnerable to extinction in some parts of Australia.
"Many people have asked, "How did your government let this happen?", and this is a very fair question.
"Australia is perceived as an environmentally conscientious nation. We are screening a short documentary made by film maker Jimmy Malecki is being at the festival which speaks about the vast loss of biodiversity in Australia. This news is equally as shocking for people to learn," says WIRES.
"This project will be taken to other parts of the world and I will be working on similar projects around threats to other iconic species on our planet," says Jerome Sli.
"I hope this will help the people of Australia to encourage strong action by the government towards saving this and other species.

Nepal joins Afghanistan and Ireland to become the third team to qualify for the World Twenty20 finals.
Nepal will compete in a major cricket tournament for the first time next year after qualifying for the World Twenty20 on Wednesday.
Nepal secured a berth by beating Hong Kong by five wickets on the last ball of their quarterfinal in Abu Dhabi. Needing 13 runs off the final over, the Nepalese hit a six, four, and two singles to tie the score with one ball left.
With Hong Kong packing the infield, Sharad Vesawkar hit the winning run through extra cover. Teammates ran to the pitch to celebrate.
Nepal joined Afghanistan and Ireland, who have competed in the last World T20s, in advancing to the tournament in Bangladesh in March.
Nepal interim leader Khilraj Regmi called the achievement historic, and congratulated the national team for boosting the morale of all sports in the Himalayan country.
The team is coached by former Sri Lanka test cricketer Pubudu Dassanayake, who took over in 2011 after guiding Canada to the 2011 World Cup.
A party in Kathmandu beckons when the team returns home this weekend. The last time Nepal won a tournament, the third division in the world cricket league in Bermuda in May, the team undertook a bus tour in a rally which lasted eight hours.
Qualifying for the World Twenty20 marks a natural progression for Nepal.
Nepal won the league's fifth division in 2010, the fourth division last year, followed by the third division. The Nepalese will travel to New Zealand in January to try and qualify for the 2015 World Cup against many of the teams they have faced in the United Arab Emirates.
Nepal beat Denmark, Kenya, Papua New Guinea, the Netherlands, and Bermuda, against losses to Scotland and Afghanistan to reach the qualifying playoffs, and the win over Hong Kong put them in a semi-final against Afghanistan on Friday.
The UAE also qualified for the World Twenty20, beating the Netherlands by 10 runs to meet Ireland in the semis.
The last qualifying spots will be given on Thursday to the winners of Hong Kong-Papua New Guinea, and Netherlands-Scotland.

Bartenders Share Their Best "You're Cut Off" Stories
by Brianna Morton

How A Bar Confession Got Him Cut Off And Almost Beaten Up
"I was the bartender for my friend's wedding. It was pretty low key, with only close friends and family, which is great because I'm not a pro at making drinks. One guy I didn't know came up and ordered a triple jack and coke, which is odd because it's a small wedding, people usually aren't trying to get smashed on triples. After about three more, he started telling me how he used to sleep with the bride and he was going to try to do it again. After I informed him that the groom was one of my best friends and if he kept talking, I'd knock his teeth out, he asked me for 'one for the road.'
I told him, 'Screw yourself, you're cut off.'"

This Guy Just Would Not Leave Until They Gave Into His Demands
"Guy was over the line. I don't know if he had gotten into his friend's drinks or if another bartender had served him while I wasn't looking, but he was far gone. Hostile, screaming, poor motor control. We asked him to leave multiple times, but he refused. We tried to gently escort him out, but he resisted physically.
Finally, he said, 'If you just do a shot with me, I'll go. Just a shot. Do a shot with me.'
'All right, I'll do it,' I said.
So I poured us a couple shots of Barcadi 151 (which is 151 proof), toasted him, and threw mine over my shoulder as he shot his. His face contorted in pain and he screamed, 'WHAT DID YOU DO!?' and while he was shuddering and disoriented, we pushed him out the door and locked it behind him."

21 Shots On Your 21st Birthday Is A One-Way Ticket To Trouble
"It was this guy's 21st birthday and he was going for 21 shots. He and his friends were polite, so the bartender was cool with it. He got somewhere in the teens before he started puking in the bathroom sink while I was in there at the urinal. I followed him back to his friends, I told them what happened and that it was time for him to go. He tried to swing at me when I was explaining but fell in the process, his friends and I caught him.
To break the mood, I said, 'Dude, so many people get kicked out fighting, you can use this opportunity to crowd surf out of the bar.' He and his buddies started laughing and we all carried him out of the bar like he was crowd surfing at a concert."

He Was Really Upset About That Light Beer
"It was the night of the Ohio State/Miami National Championship Football game. Michelob Ultra was new to our bar (an Outback Steakhouse). We had a guest who had had a few too many Mich Ultras and when we decided it was time for him to stop drinking, we gave him his receipt. Unfortunately, we hadn't updated our POS system to include Ultra, so all Mich Ultras were listed as Michelob Light. He saw that and screamed out, 'I DIDN'T DRINK NO MICHELOB LIGHT!' and threw his 22 oz glass mug at the other bartender, who immediately turned around (the mug missed) and said, quite calmly, 'You need to get out of my bar!'
Jimmy, our 5'4" server in the room with us, ran over and picked this guy up by the armpits and carried him over to the back door (for To Go orders) and slammed him into the door to open it. Unfortunately, the To Go door had been locked because we were closing. He hit the door with some decent force, let out an audible, 'UNGH!' and then collapsed to the ground in pain. It must have sobered him up slightly, because he very sheepishly came back and apologized and paid for his drinks, but man was it insane for about 20 seconds or so."
This Wedding Went Downhill Real Quick
"I bartended weddings in a hotel ballroom in a smaller rural town.
One particular wedding the groom and groomsmen went out to the parking lot to shotgun beers that were stashed in the groom's truck. The wedding party had already cashed in 4 kegs by 9:30 pm and the father of the bride, who was paying for it all, declined buying any more.
All of the groomsmen came back in and went back into the reception/dance. The bride storms out to the parking lot when she sees everyone but her new hubby return, then comes back in red in the face, makeup smeared and bawling her eyes out, then screams at her bridesmaids to 'go get her out of that truck!'
Bridesmaids go out and drag another bridesmaid into the hotel bathrooms and help her get back into her dress properly. Groom strolls up to the bar and orders a shot of Jack while tucking his shirt in.
We closed the bar at that exact moment."

This Guy's Attitude Just Got Worse And Worse Until Someone Else Stepped In
"A guy came in one night who seemed already drunk, ordered a few beers to watch a football game, and turned into a belligerent jerk. He was pretty big, about 6' and looked to weigh about 250.
Every time the team he was rooting for made a mistake, he got more and more ticked off, and at one point, started throwing stuff like cup coasters across the room and screaming obscenities. I politely told him to calm down, and he would for a minute or two, but always with some sarcastic answer, or muttering an insult under his breath I could barely hear.
At one point, when the team he was rooting against scored a touchdown, he got up, picked up a cue stick, and chucked it across the room like a javelin. I told him he was cut off, and he started cursing at me and making threatening gestures. I'm pretty small compared to this guy, standing at only 5'9 and weighing a measly 145 lbs. As he was shouting, I just walked away, trying to avoid a physical confrontation, and he returned back to watching the game and sipping his beer.
A friend of mine, who is a Brazilian Jujitsu MMA fighter, was shooting balls around on the pool table behind him while this was going on. He is about 5'10 and weighs around 170, but he is ripped. Every time this guy would act up, my friend would look over at me and gesture towards the guy, asking me if I wanted him to escort him out. I shook my head no, thinking I could control the situation, and since the football game was nearly over, thinking he would hopefully leave once it ended.
Well, he didn't, and when his team lost, he took his beer mug and slammed it onto the bar, very hard, cracking the mug and splashing beer everywhere. At that point, I said 'You're 86'd. Get out of here and don't come back.'
He stood up and said, 'I'll stay as long as I want. What are you gonna do?' At that point, I told him to leave or I'd call the cops. That set him off, and he started walking towards me, telling me he'd break my hands before I would get the chance to dial. I took a step back right when he took a swing, which thankfully missed. Out of nowhere, I saw a fist connect with the guy's jaw, and he dropped like a sack of potatoes. My friend knocked him out cold in one swing.
The cops came, as did an ambulance, and it turned out the guy had a warrant out for his arrest for domestic violence. When the police reviewed the videotape of the incident, they patted my friend on the back and said, 'Nice punch, man.'
After that incident, I convinced my boss to hire my friend, who was jobless, as a bouncer."

Behavior Unbefitting Of A Marine
"I had to cut off a Marine because he bit a woman's butt who was dancing on the bar. The bouncers escorted him outside (he was extremely intoxicated, but compliant and apologetic) and a police officer chatted with him for a few minutes before sending him off in a cab. Later the officer told us the Marine just got back from serving his second tour in Iraq, which is why he didn't get arrested."

Their Fun Boy's Night Out Likely Ended At The Hospital
"I worked in a bar with a concrete floor with some sort of finish over the top to make it shiny. Well, three guys walked in who were already pretty drunk. My boss came to me and said to watch out for those guys since they were already wasted. I didn't think much of it. The waitress said they wanted three mojitos. Well, three mojitos is way different than three shots of tequila, so I thought no harm in that order. Here you go. Well, I saw one guy get up and start walking towards the bathroom, which is right next to my bar. About three steps from the bathroom door, he started throwing up mid-stride. He continued walking, slipped in his own throw-up and smacked his head on the cement floor so loud that half of the bar heard it and cringed. He actually crawled through his own puke to get to the bathroom and closed the door. So I thought the logical thing to do was to go to his friends let them know their friend likely had a concussion and they should keep their eyes on him. Well as I approached the table, I noticed one of the guys had a large mint leaf on his cheek from the mojito, so all I said was, 'Your buddy threw up, slipped in it, hit his head on the concrete floor, crawled into the bathroom, likely with a concussion, and you have mint on your face, you guys are now cut off.'
His only response was to look across the table to his friend and say, 'You're buying this round because you're the jerk that did not tell me I had mint on my face.'"

The Money's All There, Pal
"I cut off an extremely drunk guy who was supporting himself on the bar. He pulled out $30 and put it on the bar. I explained that I cannot serve him alcohol, but that I will get him some water. I pushed the money toward him so no one could take it. I came back with a glass of water. The money on the bar was now $60. He took the water, drank half, looked at it, slammed it down, and just stared at me as if I was the devil. I explained to him that the money in front of him was his. He looked at it, then at me, swore, then walked off, and didn't come back. I put the money into my pocket to return to him if he came back. He didn't."

"No Matter How Many Times He Said He Wasn't Interested, She Just Kept Coming At Him"
"Back in the late '90s/early '00s, I worked at a bar and a club over a period of time. In the club, I was a DJ and thank goodness I could just shut the window to my booth whenever someone was being an idiot. But when I worked in the bar, I was a cocktail waitress/bartender/bar back (basically whatever was needed that night).
In 2005, I was working and my boyfriend came into the bar to wait for me to get off of work. This very, very drunk cougar woman kept hitting on him and trying to pull him off his stool to go dance, no matter how many times he said he wasn't interested. She was sloppy and I'd stopped serving her about an hour prior, but hadn't realized she was getting drinks from the other bartender on duty. Finally, my boyfriend told her that I was his girlfriend and he really, really wasn't interested.
She, no joke, broke her glass on the counter and tried to come at me. I picked up the first thing close by which was a cocktail tray and just slapped her in the face with it. She fell right over and we threw her out.
She wasn't just cut off, she was 86'd. Don't attack your bartender."

They Had Front Row Seats To The Weirdest Competition Ever
"I was a line cook at a restaurant that closes the kitchen an hour before the bar. My fellow kitchen mates and I were out on the deck enjoying some beers, just scanning the crowd, when we saw this huge kid, must have been on a college football team, yelling at the woman bartender about being cut off. It was a Tuesday night in the summer, so we didn't have our A-Team on as far as bouncers go, so our meek little bouncer went up and asked him to leave, which he said was not happening. The bartender covertly called the police and the restaurant manager was nowhere to be found. The guy refused to leave unless someone beats him at arm wrestling. Three guys tried, nobody beats him. The fourth guy, a tall thin kid, beat him. I guess there's a trick to arm wrestling. Anyway, the meathead stood up and pushed the kid and sent him and a bunch of plastic chairs flying in the air like the courtroom scene in Ghostbusters 2, and leaves. The cops showed up about three minutes after he left."

He Claimed He Wasn't Drunk, And His Reason Why Has Stuck With The Bartender For 10 Years
"It's been about ten years now since I've tended bar.
I once had a group of big guys in there one night. They had been there about 3 hours, but one of the guys hadn't got up in a while, so I didn't realize how drunk he had gotten. Anyway, it must have been his turn to buy, because he came stumbling up to the bar, almost knocking over a table on the way. He ordered a round for the table. I told him, 'I think you've probably had enough.'
He said, 'What?'
I said, 'You've had enough, you're drunk.'
His reply, and I'll never forget this, 'I'm not drunk, I work for the railroad!' Completely serious. I just stared at him for about 10 seconds. He said it again. I just walked away and his friends came up to the bar at this point and led him out the door.
It's often made me wonder what kind of training program the railroads have."

Surprisingly, It Was The Regulars Who Caused Her So Much Trouble
"I tended at my grandma's bar on Sundays the summer after I graduated high school. It was a run of the mill hick bar. Sundays were quiet, just a couple regulars, mostly truck drivers, drinking their bud lights and watching Monk.
One Saturday night, my grandma called and told me I had to come out and work, the regular bartender was out sick. Just so happened it was a bike night. The place was slammed. I was running around like a crazy person, probably forgetting to charge people, making a mess, freaking out. A couple of regulars were helping me here and there, mostly just telling people to calm down, they'd get their drinks when I got to them. Luckily, it was mostly just pouring drafts and opening bottles. I got a half a second and I noticed one of my Sunday regulars was wasted and being a douche, so I told him he was done. I walked away to go help someone else, and when I turned around, this guy was standing on his stool, leaning over the bar, attempting to reach in the cooler and get himself another beer. I flipped out. A guy pulled him down and took him outside, and apparently drove the guy home.
Half an hour later, we were almost completely cleared out, the guy called and asked if someone could come get him and bring him back, he's sober now. I didn't work another Saturday ever, and he and I did not have a civil relationship during the rest of my Sundays."

The Unfortunate Adventures Of "Keg-Stand" And His Bartender
"One time, this group of young 20-somethings came into my bar. One of them was obviously very drunk. He couldn't make direct eye-contact and he had a severe case of the wobbles, let's call him 'Keg-Stand.' I made the whole group of people their drinks, and told Keg-Stand all I could give him was water. He complained and grudgingly took the water over to a table with his friends.
Soon after, one of the others in the group ordered two more brews, and when I wasn't paying attention, gave one of them K-Stand. After some time, I spotted him drinking and calmly walked over and took his drink away. The guy, almost by gut reaction, took a swing at me. That was a first for me, and I've been at this gig for a while.
His ended up hitting a barstool and injured his hand. Fortunately, one of my regulars grabbed him by the back of his upper-arm and we took Keg-Stand and his drink-buying friend outside.
Frickin' Lallapalooza."

When She Couldn't Finish Her Drink, He Heroically Stepped In
"I was guest bartending during a university residence party at a bar when a girl comes up to me and orders a highball. We were serving a variety of $3 highballs for all the students living in residence, so I asked her exactly what kind of highball she wanted. She repeated again that she just wanted a highball in an irritated voice and gave me a look like I was the one who was stupid. I realized that she was probably a 18-year-old freshman (Alberta, Canada if you're curious), figured she didn't know much about the different types of liquors, and besides, I was busy. So I poured her a highball of tequila and milk and served it up to her with a bit of Tabasco sauce. She threw exactly $3 at me, took a few sips, and exclaimed, 'EWWWW!! YUUUUCK! I DON'T LIKE HIGHBALLSSSSS!!' Then some guy stumbles up to her, took it from her, slammed it (ice and everything), paused, and then proceeded to puke most of it back into the cup while the rest of it splattered all over her legs. He tried to brush it off as if it happened because he was 'dancing too much' and asked for a new one. I cut him off after that and the bouncers took him outside."

DC Bartenders Get To See Political Figures Cut Loose In The Worst Way
"I work in DC as a banquet bartender for hire. I was at a very prestigious hotel downtown that hosts many large galas that entertain celebrities and politicians alike. At these events, banquet bars are, of course, open bars so people can have as much as they like, free of charge. I was working one event that had several senators and, needless to say, some of them can drink. One senator in particular was really knocking back some Maker's Mark and was getting a bit rowdy. You could tell people were getting uncomfortable with his behavior, but it wasn't until he slapped one of the servers on the rear that I had to come out from behind my bar (which is a huge no-no in the business), grab the drink out of his hand, and sternly said, 'No more!' You could tell he felt totally emasculated and he behaved himself after that. It definitely felt great having power over one of the guys that runs our nation."

"The Stall Looked Like Somebody Had Murdered Barney The Dinosaur"
"The funniest one I saw was at our campus pub. It was one of the student organization's Boys Night Out. The theme was sailors, so we had a bar full of dudes in full sailor outfits. It was part of our job to do bathroom checks to make sure no one was passed out or puking.
So my bar manager came up to me and said he saw some dude run to the bathroom and he was pretty sure he yacked. When I went to check, I saw a closed bathroom stall that looked like somebody had murdered Barney the Dinosaur.
I knocked on the door and this sailor opened the door with a massive look of shame, red wine puke all over his chest and legs, red wine puke COVERING the toilet (tank and all), and red wine puke all over the floor.
He looked at me with big puppy dog eyes and held out his hands to get X'd (we put X's on people's hands that were cut off, we didn't kick them out unless they tried to order again). I told him he was clearly out of commission and had to go, which he was a good sport about."

The Family Warned Him About That Guy, But The Warning Didn't Quite Prepare Him For What Happened
"I was bartending a party on the second floor and there was a guy who showed up drunk. The family warned me to watch out for him. I gave him one drink and cut him off, telling him it was obvious he drank before he came. He then told me he was a black belt and he said, 'Who do you think you are, I have been studying martial arts for 30 years, don't mess with me.' He would walk away and come back several times with similar comments. The family told me he was indeed an instructor, but he was not 'martial arting' anyone as drunk as he was. I told him I was going to call the cops if he threatened me one more time and then he told me some choice words. He went out the side door and fell down the stairs. I saw people help him up and he was bleeding from the head. They tried to get his keys from him, but he overpowered the men downstairs, got in his car, and drove off. We called the cops and just hope nobody was hurt. So, that was fun."

The Valley Creek Restoration Plan presents restoration strategies and potential projects that can be implemented to enhance natural resources and improve angler use within the Valley Creek Watershed. This document serves as a primary source of guidance for the Valley Creek Trustee Council in administering Restoration Fund monies. Copies of this plan are available by writing to either of the Trustee Council representatives at the addresses provided or by downloading the report below.
A top down watershed approach has been identified as the preferred approach to project implementation. Therefore, projects proposed that fall within upper portions (headwaters or first order basins) of the watershed will be given preference over projects within the lower portions of the watershed (3rd order basins).
Projects submitted to the Valley Creek Trustee Council for funding must be consistent with the principles and strategies identified in the restoration plan. Questions related to the Valley Creek Restoration Plan and strategies or projects presented therein should be directed to Chuck Marshall, Restoration Coordinator at cgmarshall1@verizon.net.

Rebels make their move on 42 days
Guy Aitchison (London, OK): Reports this morning suggested that Brown was ready to make concessions on the 42 days, legislating for greater parliamentary and judicial scrutiny in return for the support of potential rebels. He apparently said he would "rather be right, and lose" but now recognizes that a defeat would be disastrous, possibly even fatal, for his leadership. His concessions have not done enough to convince Labour MP David Winnick, however, who went ahead and tabled an amendment to the Counter-Terrorism Bill to stop the extension of pre-charge detention. Winnick is the MP who tabled the amendment allowing 28 days detention in 2006, defeating Blair's plans for 90 day. What is promising for opponents of the Bill (pretty much everyone outside the Home Office, including the Director of Public Prosecutions) is that Winnick claims to have support of MPs who supported the 90 days but have since decided that 28 days is sufficient. He thinks this may just be enough to bring about a government defeat.
I hope he's right. As Stuart Weir and other supporters of OK and LC's "Not a Day Longer" campaign have endlessly pointed out on OK and elsewhere there has been no new evidence produced to justify 42 days detention; the judicial and parliamentary safeguards are inadequate; and the law risks alienating precisely those communities whose support is needed to defeat terrorism.
Brown's determination to go for 42 days in the face of massive opposition from the legal establishment, human rights groups and countless experts on counter-terrorism was a cynical and calculating move designed to make him look tougher than the Tories and appeal to the Murdoch press. There is now every chance that, just like the strategy with the 10p tax, it will backfire spectacularly.

South Africa's President Cyril Ramaphosa stressed the importance of the defence industry as he formally opened the 10th Africa Aerospace and Defence show at Waterkloof, Pretoria today.
The industry's role in areas of national security were key to the economic future of South Africa, the president said.
"Improved security attracts investment, encourages growth and promotes development," Ramaphosa said. He also saw an important role for the South African National Defence Force (SANDF) in the military intervention capability across the whole continent under the direct control of the African Union.
"SANDF ought to involve itself, with African partners, in peace missions to improve security in strife-torn regions. These intervention capabilities can reduce the risk of major interstate conflict and civil war," he said.
Ramphosa responded to critics of the defence cuts and reiterated the financial challenges facing the country. "The economy is under pressure" he said saying the means available in the budgets are finite, but while he recognised that SANDF was adapting to this economic reality he stressed again the importance of the sector.
"It is a national asset that has value for many departments and agencies of government," he said. "It innovates products for the greater economy, such as systems that improve the safety of railway lines or improve the efficiency of shark nets.
"Some of our aircraft-related businesses are expanding in a highly competitive environment as suppliers to the biggest players in the global aircraft industry," he said.

"Because of You" znalazł się na soundtracku "MX vs. ATV Unleashed" oraz w zwiastunie do horrora "Jeepers Creepers 2", zaraz przed utworem "Meet the Creeper" grupy Rob Zombie. Utwór znalazł się także w popularnej grze komputerowej Guitar Hero World Tour wydanej w październiku 2008 roku.

Znaczenie tekstu
Piosenka zajmuje się tematem zażywania narkotyków. Namawia do tego aby pewna osoba zrezygnowała, o czym świadczy fragment tekstu "nie stanę i nie przyjrzę się, jak umrzesz". Podobną tematykę zażywania narkotyków zespół poruszył w utworze "Worthy to Say" z albumu "The State" z 1998 roku.

Utwór wyróżnia się spośród pozostałych kompozycji grupy wyjątkowo mocno przesterowanymi gitarami i agresywnym wykonaniem Kroegera, które zahacza o heavy metal. Kompozycja należy do jednej z najcięższych w dorobku grupy. Oparta jest o bardzo mocne brzmienie gitar oraz sporą liczbę gitarowych riffów. Ze względu na swoje ciężkie brzmienie, piosenka często porównywana jest z utworem "Side of a Bullet" z albumu "All the Right Reasons". Mimo mocnego brzmienia, utwór zajął wysokie lokaty na amerykańskich listach, 3 miejsce w Kanadzie oraz 7 na amerykańskiej liście Mainstream Rock Tracks.

Utwór na koncertach
Utwór jest regularnie grany na koncertach grupy. Został wykonany podczas koncertu grupy na prestiżowym festiwalu muzyki rockowej Rock am Ring w roku 2004, z którego to powstało nieoficjalne koncertowe DVD. Utwór został zagrany w nieco szybszym tempie niż w wersji studyjnej, trwa bowiem 3 minuty i 19 sekund. Utwór wszedł także w skład koncertowego DVD grupy "Live from Sturgis 2006", który się odbył podczas jednego z koncertów podczas trasy promującej płytę "All the Right Reasons". Podczas wykonywania utworu, grupie na scenie towarzyszą także efekty pirotechniczne.

Chad Kroeger o utworze "Becaouse of You":

"Lubię grać "Woke Up This Morning", a także "Because of You" - to najmocniejszy utwór na płycie "The Long Road". Jego granie sprawia mi przyjemność, ma on bowiem ciekawe riffy i emanuje pozytywną energią. To jest utwór z gatunku tych, które gra się bez zastanowienia - on po prostu płynie.".

Animals have been hunted for centuries, not only with weapons such as the bow and arrow and the gun but also with a variety of traps. A trap is any device used to catch animals—including insects—on land or in water. Some traps are mechanical and must be set—sometimes with bait—as in the case of an ordinary mousetrap. Mechanical traps are normally triggered by the motion of the animal's stepping either on it or into it. Other traps are passive; they lure animals into an enclosure from which they cannot escape.
The oldest traps are the pitfall and the deadfall. Neither is used much today except in very remote parts of the world. A pitfall is simply a hole dug in the ground and covered with grass, sticks, and branches with a bait nearby as a lure. When the animal steps on the covering, it falls into the trap. The pitfall has been used to catch elephants and other animals unable to jump very high. A large cat could probably escape from a pitfall by climbing or jumping.
The deadfall consists of some large, heavy object—such as a boulder or log—supported in a position above where an animal walks. When an animal passes by and hits or knocks out the support, the log or boulder falls on the animal.
The least cruel type of device is the box trap. It is a baited trap made of wood, wire, metal, or a combination of these and is usually box-shaped. When the animal enters the trap, a mechanism is triggered to shut the door of the box, making it impossible for the animal to escape.
Some marine traps are essentially variations of the box trap. Common lobster traps are examples made from wooden slats that allow the water in. Fish traps are more complex. The fyke net trap, for instance, is a succession of funnels linked by nets. While fishes can easily get in the funnel openings, they find it impossible to get out.
Another device for catching fishes is a tidal trap, or weir. It is made of netting or mesh set on the shore at low tide. At high tide it is mostly under water, and fishes can get into it to feed. When the tide goes out again, the fishes are trapped inside the net.
Most modern animal trapping on land is done with snares or with steel traps. The snare is made from wire or rope with a loop large enough for an animal's head or leg to enter. When the animal gets into the loop, a mechanism is triggered to tighten the loop, capturing the animal. Sometimes a snare is attached to a young tree bent over and held by a triggering device. When an animal gets its head or leg through the loop, the tree springs up, hauling the trapped animal with it.
The steel trap was devised in the United States early in the 19th century when trapping for fur and food was common. The most common steel trap consists of a round metal disk, to which are attached two semicircular disks with metal teeth. Bait is put on a metal trigger in the center of the disk. When an animal reaches for the bait, the trigger activates the semicircular jaws to close the trap. This is one of the most cruel traps in use; it causes great pain, and the animal may be left for hours or days to die slowly in the trap before being found.
Insect traps vary from the very simple to the highly mechanized, and they are meant to capture and kill. Two of the simplest insect traps are flypaper and the Roach Motel. Flypaper is a strip of paper coated with a sticky, and sometimes poisonous, substance that attracts flies and holds them until they die. The Roach Motel is a small pasteboard box open at both ends. Inside is a sticky substance that attracts roaches and similar insects and holds them. Far more complicated is an electronic trap that attracts insects with its soft blue light and electrocutes them on a wire grid.
Some insect traps use chemical lures—often pheromones—that act as a mating call (see animal communication). Once inside, the insect is trapped and cannot escape. Another mechanical trap operates like a vacuum cleaner. It sucks the insects in, and they are trapped within a net enclosure until they die.
Land trapping of animals, apart from insects, has declined in the 20th century except in areas such as Siberia, where animals are caught for their fur (see furs). It is often done illegally, however, to trap endangered species, which are often sold commercially outside the country where the animals are caught (see endangered species). The trapping of marine animals for food, however, is still widely practiced by commercial fishermen.

You should prefer the colours which is appear new nuance, this graduation invitation template is more appropriate for your graduation event concept.
There are so most concept that can be used for your graduation invitation cards. In this gallery I should talk about some excellent graduation invitation cards.


Naomi Susan Schwartz Jacobs began creating digital paintings in 2008. "Motivated by color, each painting is a journey that develops organically, sometimes entirely abstract, occasionally partly figurative." Check out what she has going on for Boulder Arts Week.
I fell in love with a piece at the Arts and Crafts Co-op, a collage on metal which said "the highest peace is the peace between opposites" and included the Hebrew word for life. For me, creating art is indeed about integrating different parts of oneself and the cosmos, which Kabbalah would say is the same process.
Slightly further afield, I would like to collaborate with Denver Jewish artist, Martin Mendelsberg, who has created a font based on the script used in the Torah. I've done some initial work using the Hebrew alphabet in my work and I'd like to expand it.
I will be inviting visitors to my home gallery to see my paintings printed on stretched canvas and metal, as well as affordable smaller prints in various sizes.There also will be an opportunity to see my computer animations, many based on my paintings.
I've applied to three local gallery/art show opportunities. There is a good chance also that I will be exhibiting at the Lafayette Library this summer. One of my paintings also has been accepted to a national exhibit emphasizing the Jewishness of Jesus.


For good photography, you need a good camera. Those, who want to take photography seriously, should look for buying a digital-SLR camera. Today, different types of versions of digital cameras are available in the marketplace. You can even manage to find a good DSLR, even if you have a low budget. After buying DSLR, all of us jump into learning certain features as well as options of DSLR cameras. Well, this is good, but at the same time you also need to learn about taking care of your camera. It is important to keep the device in the state of the art form so that it can serve you on long term without any glitches.
When it comes to DSLR cleaning, two are parts of the camera are considered as most crucial. The first part is image sensor area, and the second part is camera lens. Camera lens cleaning process is comparatively easier than cleaning DSLR sensor. Basically, sensor is the most delicate part of a camera. Any kind of damage to it would cost you heavily. So, you always have to be careful with image sensor cleaning of your DSLR camera. In the following section of this article, let us check out some tips for avoiding dirty image sensor.
Why is it Essential to Avoid Dirty Image Sensor?
Image sensor is a delicate part of DSLR camera. This is why cleaning dusts from this part needs precision and expertise. A small mistake can cost you heavily. In fact, camera owners are advised not to clean image sensor on regular basis. Rather than cleaning image sensor, one should focus on not making this part dirty. With a few careful measures, you can avoid dusts on camera image sensor. The idea is promoting the concept of "prevention is better than cure".
So, here in the following section, let us find the tips and techniques to keep DSLR camera sensors clean, avoiding dusts.
When you intend to change lens of your DSLR camera, you actually make sensor part exposed. This is why for changing lenses, you need to judge the environment rightly. If the environment is too duty, then it is always better to think about changing lens later. Also before changing lens, you should clean the lens properly. New lens should be dust free so that it cannot cause damage to the image sensor.
In most of the cases, it has been found that DSLR camera sensor has acquired dust, while changing lenses. During changing lenses, we lack care or vigilance. Our negligence causes accumulation of dusts on camera image sensor. One of the biggest examples of negligence is changing lens while keeping camera on. When you keep camera on, free electron will be there on the image censor area. Negatively charged electrons often attract small or tiny dust particles. So, you need to be careful about it.
For cleaning image sensor, you need a blower. This is actually the safest tool for cleaning the most delicate part of digital-SLR camera. Using cloths or other kinds of tools for cleaning image sensor is highly discouraged by experts.
Apply common sense – is not it quite impossible to fall dust on your camera when you keep it upside down? So, when you are not using your camera, always keep it upside down so that nu dust particles can enter image sensor region and cause any problems.
For image sensor cleaning, you can also opt for professional cleaning services. Find a veteran and reliable service provider through, instead of believing in non-competent services.
Not just for the novice photographers, even professional photographers find it quite difficult to cope with low light conditions. Low light condition is not really favorable for photography, and thus people face a lot of problems. To help in clicking images in low light conditions, all DSLR cameras come with in-built flash option. Well, using flash is definitely an option, when conditions are not favorable for normal shooting. But, even without using flash, you can take some brilliant pictures. In fact, most of the pro level photographers hate using flash, as that suppresses the creative values of a photograph.
So, how to take photographs without flash in low light conditions? In this piece of writing, we shall find some effective tips and strategies that professional as well as novice photographers can deploy to create some amazing snaps.
When there is low light, ISO of your DSLR camera comes into the play. ISO setting is important for low light photography. Enhancing ISO level will allow entering more lights to your camera sensor. As a result, you do not need to click photos with a slow shutter speed. Hence, you can omit the chances of obtaining blurred out images due to shake. Different ISO levels can be tried for different low light conditions. Too high ISO can cause your image filled by grains. Too low ISO can make you photographs dark. So, ISO has to be perfect, and to achieve that perfection trial and error method is suggested.
The ultimate lesson for low light photography is learning clocking photographs in low shutter speed. Slow shutter speed means shutter will stay open for a long time, and that would allow more light to fall on the camera sensor. Low shutter photographs in low light conditions can bring amazing results. However, you have the chance to face blurred photographs as your hand will shake in low shutter option. If you can control shake of your hand to some extent, you would definitely be able to click some excellent photographs. Once again, playing with slow shutter mode is a matter of practice. You need to work on this constantly to achieve perfection. 100% perfection may not be possible, but it is possible to go near 100%.
If you are determined in clicking low light photographs without using flash light, then using tripod becomes mandatory in many cases. A tripod stand is basically useful for shooting photographs at low shutter conditions. With slow shutter speed, shaky effects come in the final photographs for obvious reasons. This can be eliminated with use of a tripod. A tripod stand will ensure there is no shaky effect on photograph, and you end up having a photograph that looks sharp, crisp and amazing.
Modern DSLR cameras come with preset night shooting modes. Using these automatic modes is not a bad thing, when you do not find a clue in shooting low light conditions However, in case of night modes, flash use remains on automatically. So, before suing present night modes, you need to shut off the flash on your camera. With night mode setting, camera automatically calibrates the lighting conditions of the atmosphere and makes the settings as per the data it receives. So, this is the safest mode for clicking sharp and crisp images in low light conditions.
When you are shooting at low light condition, you need to understand the source of lights properly. Make sure that the shooting object is placed opposite to the source of lights. This will help you to get sharp images of the object that you want to shoot.
Many DSLR users love to take photos in daylight, but they get a little confused when it comes to taking photos under artificial lights. In fact, many professional photographers find it difficult to click good photos under artificial lights. One of the most hated things in low light digital photography is using flash. Use of flash can completely spoil your photographs. Hence, you need to be careful, whenever you use flash for clicking photos. On the quest of being extra careful, few people do not even use flash. They keep faith on their skills of holding camera at low shutter speed.
When you are using flash to shoot an object, always take one or two steps back. The strategy is letting he flash light to diffuse in the air. Shooting with flash mode closing down to the object will burn your photograph completely. It will make the photograph to look pale or burnt white. So, taking a few steps back and then shooting the object will help you to capture better photographs. Lesser flash light fall on the object when you take photographs few steps behind than usual. Light gets enough chance to diffuse in the air, and hence chance gets minimal for over lighting the object.
Modern DSLR comes with a lot of options for the photographers. You can play with different modes and settings. When you are using flash, you can control flash mode, as per your requirement. For example, you can diffuse flash light by using flash light compensation option. You can tone down the intensity of flash light as per your requirements. Basically compensation mode helps to light up flash a little early so that the light can get enough time to diffuse in the air. When you are shooting an object up close keeping flash mode on, you should alter flash light compensation carefully.
You can control flash light blowouts with changing white balance modes. Point and shoot camera users would not find many options to alter white balance. But, DSLR camera owners have a lot of choices for changing white balance. In fact, there is a present white balance mode, named as flash mode. You can opt for this white balance setting, when you are using flash light for shooting an object.
Many point and shoot cameras and digital-SLR cameras come with default night mode. You can try this mode for shooting photographs in low light keeping flash light on. Using night mode will adjust the flash light compensation automatically. As the camera shall caliber the parameters on behalf of you, you would find different results in different cases. Sometimes result may be satisfying, while sometimes they would not. However, using night mode is not a bad choice at all, especially for novice photographers.
ISO level is generally enhanced when you are shooting at low light conditions. However, if you have decided to use flash, you should tone down the ISO a little so that photographs do not get overexposed. This will definitely help you to escape flash blowouts.

Biased Media Reports Non-News
16 Jun, 2012 by	Michael Fell
Once again, a proud, card-carrying member of the "progressive" Party Pravda is wasting readers' time. The headline reads: "On eve of health ruling, Ruth Bader Ginsburg predicts 'sharp disagreement'".
http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0612/77479.html
How is it possible that Kyle Cheney is getting paid to spell bind readers with such gems as: "Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg laid waste Friday to all those rumors about the fate of the Affordable Care Act in the Supreme Court." Yet the article contains no information about Ginsburg making such a claim.
Cheney continues Pravda's collective non-information/misinformation campaign by saying: "Although she offered no insight into the tightly held decisions of her colleagues, Ginsburg did indicate that many of the court's decisions over the next two weeks – which are also expected to include an FCC indecency ruling – might be close."
"Might be close"? That is the basis for claiming to have a statement from Ginsburg that "laid waste" to "all those rumors" about the pending health care decision?
Seriously, is this what earns "reporters" a paycheck nowadays?
"Reporting" Ginsburg's "revelation" that Supreme Court rulings on highly controversial cases in the coming weeks "might be close" is "reporting" "news" as cutting edge and unpredictable as each day beginning with a sunrise.
By intentionally including a reference to the pending health care ruling in a faux headline, yet including zero content in the article revealing any such information clearly demonstrates the impotence of today's "mainstream media". That this story reports "sharp disagreement" exists between members of the Supreme Court is as fresh and as newsworthy as: dog bites mailman.
The real, clear, political divide between traditional, patriotic Americans and their "progressive" adversaries the makeup of the Supreme Court currently reflects is the story. One that is not told.
The philosophical division between Constitutionally protective Americans and "progressive" assailants of America's Republic is as distinct as is the temperature difference between earth's equator and its two poles.
On the one hand there is the Tea Party, a spontaneous grassroots movement which clearly expresses a strong, unified desire to restore the United States to it's Constitutional roots. A platform calling to reduce the size, scope, power and cost of government, and to reinstate the traditional American values of self reliance, individual liberty and a return to truly representative government. The Tea Party was hugely influential in the 2010 mid-term elections, when "progressive" Democrats were denied retention of unbridled, unchecked power. The Tea Party remains influential in the 2012 campaign to remove "progressives" from Congress, the Senate and the White House.
On the other hand there is Occupy. A handful of people who disagreed with the existence of income disparity were quickly co-opted by Communist aligned big labor unions thugs in an astro-turf copycat attempt to counter the voice of America's no longer Silent Majority. This artificial movement rapidly discredited itself through illegal occupancy and destruction of public and private property, and by descending into disparate, disorganized messaging that contributed as much to America's political discourse as a screen door does to the functioning of a submarine. Unlike the peaceful, respectful approach taken by the Tea Party, Occupy's attempts to gain public support disintegrated into violence, arrests and criminal charges.
Why is Cheney wasting people's time "reporting" on unremarkable utterances of a Supreme Court Justice who, while on a recent trip overseas, made public statements that disrespected the United States Constitution? Why is Ginsburg, whose views are considered seditious by many patriotic, Constitution loving Americans, painted in such a fawning light?
This is non-news presented to readers by a biased media source.

Lifelong Learning with Stacey Shirra
Community|June 2021
Vet Advantage
Whether it's a new country or a new industry, Stacey Shirra craves the opportunity to learn new things.
1. Your post with Covetrus is a newly created one. Can you explain the role of a talent management executive?
Shirra: Easily put, it's about finding out what the company needs when it comes to people and making sure we get the right people. Then when we get the right people, making sure that we keep them. You can get complicated and technical, but generally speaking, that's it.
2. How do you personally continue to develop and educate yourself?
Shirra: When I moved from sunny Scotland to Tokyo, without learning Japanese, it got me into a completely different culture, so I was forced to learn. I made assumptions that we were similar, and that isn't the case, and it's fascinating to me how people approach things in different countries with their beliefs, values, and the way they show up in the world.
I started to really get into lifelong learning when I moved to Hong Kong. In Hong Kong, they also spoke English, so it was easier to get around. I started in night school taking classes. I was working on a certificate, and I was one of the oldest people in the class, but that also had learning potential. I was learning something that I could do on the job, and I was learning about the culture from the locals. That's really been a theme for every country I've lived in. I have been blessed to meet some wonderful folks, many of whom I am still in close contact with.
When I came to the United States, I would go to comedy clubs to try and learn the humor because you all have different humor over here. So, I would try and understand, OK, this is what it's like. This is what people think is funny.
In terms of education. I'm always looking at what's the latest, and is it a fad or actually helpful? I deeply believe in self-development and spend a lot of money on my own personal development every year. There are a lot of fads out there. I like to go and lay them out and see, do I like it? Do I not? Do I think we can use it?
3. What interested you about making the jump to animal health?
Shirra: Well, for one, I have five cats, so maybe I already had some built-in Covetrus values. I grew up in Scotland, and we lived next to a farm. We always had lots of stray and rescue animals, so animals are just near and dear to my heart.
I loved working at Apple, but getting to work with a company like Covetrus, with brilliant people, to do the work I love for a cause that's greater than myself, why would you pass up an opportunity like that?
Meet the leader
Stacey M.M. Shirra is vice president of global talent management at Covetrus. Shirra is responsible for Covetrus' global talent strategy, including building a strong talent bench across the organization. She joins Covetrus from Apple, where she served in their Global Talent Management & Organizational Readiness group. Shirra has lived and worked in the UK, Asia, and most recently in Silicon Valley.

Turning The Tables on Carrie Brownstein
By Scott Bernstein
Jambands.com published a number of new features yesterday including Brian Robbins' chat with Jim Weider, Mike Greenhaus' conversation with John Medeski and Greg McLoughlin's (of BuzzUniverse) heart-warming story. As much as I enjoyed those articles, there's one piece that jumped out at me – David Paul Kleinman's The Carrie Brownstein Project.
As you might recall, Sleater-Kinney's Carrie Brownstein spent one week listening to nothing but Phish in an effort to figure out why so many people either love or hate the quartet for NPR's Monitor Mix blog. Brownstein bought a few Phish albums, reached out to the Phish fans for suggestions and even met a group of fans to discuss the band they love. For David Paul's Jambands.com feature he flipped the script in an attempt to understand what critics and Sleater-Kinney fans see in Brownstein's music.
Kleinman did his best to only listen to Sleater-Kinney for one whole week. Just like Brownstein, he reached out to a number of S-K fans to seek out the best the band had to offer and tried to put his biases against the group – his ex-girlfriend was a big S-K fan – out of his mind for the course of the week. Does Kleinman love Sleater-Kinney now? Read the article to find out.
xeyedandpainless says:
Really torn on his article. It is more a personal roller coaster of a broken relationship, and a comparison between "hipster v hippy" than a serious attempt to do what Brownstein did IMO.
Well, if nothing else, it is honest.
Erik says:
I did the same thing awhile back and now I understand that PHISH is the alltime greatest LIVE band ever. WOW!

Glenn Beck-target Yosi Sergant's DNC bash
Michael Roberts | September 22, 2009 | 12:56pm
The latest sport among the right-wing loonocracy involves targeting minor members of the Obama administration and hammering away at them relentlessly until they're given the boot. Among the latest folks to get such treatment: National Endowment for the Arts communication director Yosi Sergant, who was reassigned after Fox News' Glenn Beck made hay about an August conference call in which Sergant allegedly talked about recruiting artists to create pro-Barack pieces.
Sergant was in Denver during last year's Democratic National Convention, and helped put on one of the bigger parties of the week: Manifest Hope, a gallery show dominated by artists such as "Hope" iconographer Shepherd Fairey who hardly needed encouragement to celebrate the party's nominee. Westword staffer Jared Jacang Maher got passes for the spectacle but couldn't attend -- so he passed on the tickets to his brother Adam. The result was a blog entitled "Little Brother Scores DNC Party VIP, Reports to Big Brother Via Text, 'This Partys Fuckin Awesome!'"
Other attendees at Manifest Hope included celebs like Sarah Silverman, who did a standup set, actor Danny Glover and Daniel Dae Kim from Lost. Shockingly enough, though, Glenn Beck was nowhere in sight. Maybe that's why he went after Sergant so hard: bitterness.
Page through below to see all of Adam's coverage and photos.
I find the building and there was a huge fucking line to get in. I go up to the guy and say 'Hey I'm from the media. I'm on the VIP list.' But then he looks at the list and tells me I'm not on it. So I stand there for a little bit and go around to the other door where they're letting in people. I just show him the press pass and he's like 'whatever' and he lets me in!
It was a big warehouse area and it was packed. It was a weird mix of people. Like older politician dudes with suits and grey hair and all these younger hipster kids. It felt like you were in LA or something, all kinds of movie stars walking around.
Then I turned and ran into my friends Clay and Ryan. I asked them how they got in and they pointed to the back door, which was wide open with no rope or anyone guarding it. They were like, "We just wandered in."
It was an open bar so I started hitting it up. There were all kinds of Baracks on the walls. The art was a lot of street urban art. There were paintings of Obama as Abraham Lincoln by Ron English. Someone knitted these huge dresses, but they had things that said like 'Hope' on it or "Obama.' I didn't get a picture of that.
There were so many hot girls there it was crazy. Sarah Silverman did standup. It was hilarious. I don't remember what she said, it was just funny. The guy from Death Cab for Cutie was there, but he was with some folky band. They were good.
Danny Glover was there. He looked super happy. He was laughing his ass off about something.
Then I spotted the guy who plays Jin on Lost. I took a picture of the back of his head, then he turned around and I took a picture of his face. His wife, or whoever he was with, was so incredibly hot. I can't even explain how hot she was.
A whole bunch of people started dancing. Did I mention it was an open bar? I got shit-faced.
I saw my friend Marika.
At about 1:30 I knew it was time to go. So I just left without saying bye to anyone and rode my bike home.

Little works more effectively in persuading potential patients than the word-of-mouth, first-hand account of a review. And the proper response, especially to the negative, often proves critical to a practice's ascent. Sure, if every comment about your practice was a testimonial rave, you could simply sit back soaking up the praise and press forward. If everyone was 100% satisfied, there'd be little here to expound upon. Contrary to the common assumption, the negative review provides that profound moment where you can absorb and diffuse it, making that quantum leap into new strata. Dissatisfaction can come in an array of forms, but preparation for such assaults is more likely to shell out dividends. Rehearsing and reviewing a tactical approach with room for variation will help.


The Fall 2014 semester is over! I thought I would summarize here what we did. I taught a Master's course in Chemical Reaction Engineering for the second time. This time we had 58 students from around the world. What is remarkable about this course is that this time it was taught completely from Emacs. Every lecture was given from Emacs, every assignment completed in Emacs, turned in from Emacs, graded in Emacs, returned in Emacs.
Students came to class, opened Emacs, and ran a command that downloaded the latest syllabus and opened it. They opened the day's lecture notes from a link in the syllabus. I lectured from the notes in Emacs, editing them on the screen live, running Python code to illustrate engineering concepts. Students did exercises in class in Emacs, and ran an Emacs command to "turn it in" which pushed their work to a git server. Later, I ran an Emacs command to collect and grade the work, then return it. Students could run a menu command in Emacs to see their grade report.
Techela provided a menu of commands to turn in assignments, check grade reports, send me feedback, open the syllabus, etc… The notes were written in org-mode, and we used org-latex-fragments to see the equations. We used code-blocks to show Python examples of problem solving, every day in class. It was awesome!
The way this worked is that most of my students got laptops as part of the MS program they enrolled in. I had my jmax repo installed on those computers, along with git, TexLive and Canopy Python. jmax provided a starter-kit for emacs that gave it the functionality I use on a regular basis. In jmax, I created a package of code I call techela, which interfaces Emacs with git, and which provides commands to download and turn in assignments, and to control permissions on each repo. This enabled me to change repos to read-only after they were due, and to grant read access when I wanted students to see them. About 15% of the class had their own computer, and we had to help them get this software installed. This got done in the first week of class, thanks to the help of my teaching assistants.
I ran a gitolite server that served the course materials, and a repo for each assignment for each student. When students first ran techela, it created a set of ssh keys which were used to authenticate each student in the gitolite server. Techela automates creation of the repos, and the permissions on each repo. Grading of assignments was done in Emacs. Every assignment turned in was an org-file, and we stored grades in the assignments as file tags. Techela constructed a dynamic gradebook on demand, among other things.
Org-mode played a central role in the success of this course! It enabled the distribution of the notes in a readable, functional form. The programmable aspects of org-mode made it possible to create custom links for machine-gradable multiple choice questions, assignments, and solutions. It made it possible to use the assignments as a data storage source for grades, and later to pull the grades out for analysis.
Overall, the experience was just awesome. Techela has a few edges that need smoothed out, but I look forward to using it again this spring, this time on a course on Molecular Simulation!
