209/365: Love on Wheels - Solo
Met some amazing and beautiful dogs at today's Love on Wheels transport and had the honor of taking their photographs for potential adopters. These dogs are on their way to New York to find a forever home through Helping Hounds dog Rescue.
Each of these dogs would of been euthanize due to over crowding if not for the Love on Wheels program and fosters who took them in.
ADOPT Don’t SHOP
The Love on Wheels program’s mission is to alleviate the dog overcrowding problem in DFW shelters by transporting adoptable dogs to areas where demand for adoptable dogs cannot currently be met.

Penn Theatre Arts Fall 2015 Mainstage Production
Directed by Dr. James F. Schlatter.
The Theatre Arts Program’s fall production, BURY THE DEAD, written by Irwin Shaw in 1936, is set “in the second year of the war that is to begin tomorrow night.” The scene is an unnamed battlefield somewhere in the world that also serves as the gravesite for six dead American soldiers. About to be interred, the six young soldiers stand up in their shared grave and plead not to be buried. This crisis is the focus of Shaw’s harrowing and deeply moving and provocative play, directed by Theatre Arts faculty member, Dr. James F. Schlatter, Can a war ever end if the dead won’t be buried? The play will be performed by an ensemble company.
Performances:
November 18–21, 7:00pm
@ Annenberg Center Live, Bruce Montgomery Theatre

Dayspring Program's mission statement reads:
To improve the quality of life for children and families focusing on those affected by substance abuse, homelessness and poverty.
One of the projects that Dayspring took on a little over a year ago, was the transformation of an abandoned city space filled with weeds, garbage and grime, and lovingly transform it into a space filled with beauty and bounty.
This garden now yields a bounty of vegetables and flowers that nourish both the body and the soul.

Students and faculty in UF Law’s Environmental and Land Use Law Program’s Spring Break Field Course explored the diverse marine and coastal ecoregion shared by South Florida and the Bahamian archipelago.
The purpose of the week-long course, led by Tom Ankersen, Florida Sea Grant's Legal Specialist, was to provide students a firm grounding in the law, policy and practice of coastal and marine sustainable development through field-based immersion, practitioner lectures, and reflective discussions.
The group traveled from the intensely developed waterfront of Biscayne Bay to the bustling government center of Nassau in the Bahamas, and then on to the quiet, rural family island of Andros, bounded by the great Bahama Bank and the Tongue of the Ocean. While there is a world of difference between the two neighbors separated by the Gulf Stream, they share a remarkably similar ecosystem facing many of the same threats, and common language of the common law.
This year’s Spring Break Field course furthers the UF Law Conservation Clinic’s South Florida Bahamas ecoregional initiative supported by Florida Sea Grant, and in partnership with the Bahamas National Trust.

The DMPS aviation program's helicopter fleet.
Teaching science and technology reached a new height as the Des Moines Public Schools’ Aviation Engineering Technology Program took possession of a Learjet Model 35. The aircraft will be based at the program’s lab, located at the Des Moines International Airport, and used as a teaching tool for high school students studying aviation technology and maintenance.
“At a time when science and technology education has never been more important, we are providing students in Des Moines with a hands-on, high-tech learning experience that will prepare them for great opportunities after high school,” said Jerry Bradley, director of the Aviation Technology Program. “The addition of this Learjet to our ‘teaching fleet’ puts us on the leading edge of high school aviation programs.”
Des Moines Public Schools’ Aviation Engineering Technology Program is one of only three high school programs in the nation certified by the Federal Aviation Administration to teach aircraft maintenance. In fact, the program in Des Moines is the only one of its kind among the nearly 4,000 school districts in the Midwestern states.
The Learjet Model 35 – also classified as a C-21 because of its use as a military transport – is a surplus aircraft from Keesler Air Force Base in Mississippi. It was acquired at a cost of $4,000.
“Des Moines Public Schools is committed to providing students and families with the best educational choices to meet their needs and interests,” added Superintendent Nancy Sebring. “This is one more example of a great opportunity, providing students with a rigorous education and technical skills available in only a few school districts throughout the nation.”

It is the first time in recent history that eagles have laid eggs at Masonville Cove, which had a long history of neglect before being the focus of restoration efforts and becoming the nation’s first urban wildlife refuge in 2013. The new parents built a nest in a large sycamore tree and are currently sitting on eggs that are expected to hatch in coming weeks. (Photo by Will Parson/Chesapeake Bay Program)

Graduate student Rachel Harrison retrieves a cage holding specimens of freshwater mussel in the Northeast Branch Anacostia River in Riverdale, Md., on Nov. 1, 2016. A team led by Dr. Lance Yonkos of the University of Maryland had placed specimens of eastern elliptio at different locations in the Anacostia watershed and assessed how many toxic contaminants the filter feeders absorbed. A secondary goal was to determine survivability of the freshwater mussel species, which historically inhabited the Anacostia watershed. "This mussel species used to be common in the Anacostia," Yonkos said. "It's not here anymore for a variety of reasons that had to do with the building of dams and other things. But, there's reason to believe that if it was reintroduced it might do ok." (Photo by Will Parson/Chesapeake Bay Program)

It was a magic season for the Syracuse Academy of Science girls basketball team.
The #SASAtoms accomplished a lot - winning the program's first Section III title and advancing to the state final four.
SAS missed out on only one goal, as Section IX champion Millbrook bested the Atoms, 67-64, in overtime in the Class C state championship game at Hudson Valley Community College.
"We came up short, but we accomplished a whole lot," #SASCS coach Reggie Pickard said after his team came out on the short end of the 4-minute extra session, during which the Atoms led three times before surrendering the final four points. "Overtime game, we lost to a great team, a well-coached team."
SAS, who finish 19-5, lost despite a determined effort from senior Lyrik Jackson, who led the Atoms with 24 points and 15 rebounds, and junior Diamonne Harris, who added 23 points.
"She made a big difference," Pickard said.
Millbrook led the whole way, until there was just one minute left in regulation. A basket by Jackson tied the game at 54-54.
The Blazers pushed the lead back to four points with 34 seconds left, but SAS got a pair of free throws from Jackson to pull within two and 6-0 sophomore Erykah Pasha sent the game into overtime by converting two free throws with no time left on the clock after she was fouled on a put back attempt at the buzzer.
The Atoms led three times in the extra session - 60-59, 62-61 and 64-63 - before the Blazers got their final points from reserve junior forward Claire Martell, who hit a basket and two free throws in the final 45 seconds.
Pickard said he told his players to keep their heads high.
"I just told them they had no reason to hang their heads," said Pickard, who started the varsity program at SAS in 2010. "We set a goal at the beginning of the season. We reached our goal, but we just came up short."
Pickard said his all-state senior, Jackson, was all heart.
"She played hurt. She twisted her ankle early on. Her shoulder was still sore from the fall yesterday. She was banged up. But she gave it her all. She gave it her heart," he said.
The coach said he hoped the Atoms would be back, albeit probably in a higher classification. Nearly everyone associated with Section III basketball expects that SAS will be moved up in class by the competition committee.

The Griffin Academy is a new program sponsored by Drake University and Nationwide Insurance. The after school program’s goal is to provide students with enrichment time focusing on the areas of math, engineering, science, technology, and the fine arts. The academy’s activities are new and different from regular classes and utilize hands-on activities. Students also take field trips in the Des Moines area. Student meet every Wednesday from 1:00-3:00 for one semester.
Today the students split into two groups. The first group mixed cornstarch, water, and food coloring to make gack. The second group colored paper skulls to celebrate Dia De Muertos.
In June 2012, Bastrop Main Street Program’s Entrepreneur-Ready Leadership Team was responsible for Bastrop being only the second city in Texas to be awarded the designation of an “Entrepreneur-Ready Community” by the Texas Center for Rural Entrepreneurship.
As a part of this project and in partnership with Bastrop High School Business Department, student finalists presented their business plans for a start-up business in Bastrop to a panel of judges on May 2, 2013. Students were vying for over $850 in scholarship money.
These are pictures of the event were taken by Upstart Bastrop thanks to Bastrop Main Street Program and the Entrepreneur-Ready Leadership team.
REDUCING THEFT
“I really appreciate the USAID Power Distribution Program’s initiative of installing Automatic Meter Reading (AMR) meters on selected domestic consumers within the Musa Pak division. These consumers are located on very remote locations and it was very hard for meter readers to visit these premises, resulting in consumer engaging in electricity theft. Installation of AMR meters with GSM/GPRS communication capability has facilitated accurate and timely meter reading.”
Multan Electric Power Company, Executive Engineer (Musa Pak Division)
Mushtaq Ahmad Athangle
(Pictured Above) AMR Project for Domestic Consumers: The USAID Power Distribution Program has installed 790 AMR meters on selected consumer connections of four divisions within Multan Circle. These consumers, identified by MEPCO commercial management, were involved in electricity theft; they were located in rural and congested areas of Multan Circle where meter reading was difficult to conduct within the reading cycle. MEPCO asked the Power Distribution Program to install these meters on connections of those consumers who might potentially be the cause of financial leakages/commercial loss due to under billing and electricity theft.
It was a magic season for the Syracuse Academy of Science girls basketball team.
The #SASAtoms accomplished a lot - winning the program's first Section III title and advancing to the state final four.
SAS missed out on only one goal, as Section IX champion Millbrook bested the Atoms, 67-64, in overtime in the Class C state championship game at Hudson Valley Community College.
"We came up short, but we accomplished a whole lot," #SASCS coach Reggie Pickard said after his team came out on the short end of the 4-minute extra session, during which the Atoms led three times before surrendering the final four points. "Overtime game, we lost to a great team, a well-coached team."
SAS, who finish 19-5, lost despite a determined effort from senior Lyrik Jackson, who led the Atoms with 24 points and 15 rebounds, and junior Diamonne Harris, who added 23 points.
"She made a big difference," Pickard said.
Millbrook led the whole way, until there was just one minute left in regulation. A basket by Jackson tied the game at 54-54.
The Blazers pushed the lead back to four points with 34 seconds left, but SAS got a pair of free throws from Jackson to pull within two and 6-0 sophomore Erykah Pasha sent the game into overtime by converting two free throws with no time left on the clock after she was fouled on a put back attempt at the buzzer.
The Atoms led three times in the extra session - 60-59, 62-61 and 64-63 - before the Blazers got their final points from reserve junior forward Claire Martell, who hit a basket and two free throws in the final 45 seconds.
Pickard said he told his players to keep their heads high.
"I just told them they had no reason to hang their heads," said Pickard, who started the varsity program at SAS in 2010. "We set a goal at the beginning of the season. We reached our goal, but we just came up short."
Pickard said his all-state senior, Jackson, was all heart.
"She played hurt. She twisted her ankle early on. Her shoulder was still sore from the fall yesterday. She was banged up. But she gave it her all. She gave it her heart," he said.
The coach said he hoped the Atoms would be back, albeit probably in a higher classification. Nearly everyone associated with Section III basketball expects that SAS will be moved up in class by the competition committee.
