2011-2012 New Roundabout at Five Corners the Front Cover Photo Is the Roundabout at Routes 74 and 286 Also Referred to As the Five Corners town of ANNUAL REPORT 2011-2012 New Roundabout at Five Corners The front cover photo is the Roundabout at Routes 74 and 286 also referred to as the Five Corners. This roundabout intersects Routes 74, 286, Windsorville Road and Skinner Road. It was constructed by the Connecticut Department of Transportation. Construction began in April of 2011 and was completed with landscaping in the spring of 2012. With the installation of the Welcome to Ellington sign, this has become the gateway to the town. The benefits are improved traffic flow and aesthetics. TOP DOG CONTEST TOWN CLERK’S OFFICE Each year the Town Clerk’s Office runs a Top Dog Contest. People send in photographs of their dogs and the pictures are arranged on a poster. Each photo is as-signed a number and this year the Town employees voted on which dog is the Top Dog. We enjoyed all of the pictures! The Top Dog for 2012-2013 is Molly, who is the companion of Anthony and Barbara Moss. The Top Dog gets tag #1 for the year. 1 Table of Contents GENERAL GOVERNMENT ADMINISTRATION RECREATION Board of Selectmen .............................................. 3 Parks and Recreation Commission ……...………....23 Board of Finance ................................................. 5 Town Assessor.................................................... 5 Land Records Inspector ........................................ 6 INFORMATION GUIDE ………………..….….25 Town Engineer ................................................... 6 Finance Officer/Treasurer ..................................... 6 Tax Collector .................................................... 7 MAP OF ELLINGTON (with street index)……...28-29 Town Clerk ....................................................... 7 Planning Department ........................................... 8 Town Attorney ................................................. 8 SOCIAL SERVICES Human Services Commission …………………..….26 North Central District Health Department …...…. …27 BOARDS, AGENCIES, COMMISSIONS Hockanum Valley Community Council …...….... 32 Planning and Zoning Commission ............................ 8 Visiting Nurse & Health Services of CT, Inc…….…..33 Inland Wetlands Agency ....................................... 8 Tri-Town Shelter Services…...………………..…..34 Economic Development Commission ...................... 9 Youth Services……..…………………...………...34 Zoning Board of Appeals ...................................... 9 Elderly Outreach/Municipal Agent …….…………36 Conservation Commission .................................... 9 Senior Center …………………….………….37 Housing Authority ............................................. 9 Water Pollution Control Authority .......................... 10 Registrars of Voters............................................. 10 ELLINGTON PUBLIC SCHOOLS Permanent Building Committee .............................. 10 Board of Education...……………………………...38 Board of Assessment Appeals ................................. 11 2012 Graduates - Ellington High School ……....…...50 Ad-Hoc Crystal Lake Milfoil Committee .................. 11 PEOPLE SERVING YOU PUBLIC SAFETY State and Federal Officials ………………….……..51 Resident State Trooper ........................................ 11 Town Departments .……………………….……..51 E911 Municipal Coordinator ................................. 12 Elected Officials ……..………………….….…....53 Building Official ................................................. 12 Appointed Boards and Commissions ……...….…....53 Fire Marshal ..................................................... 12 Justices of the Peace...……………….…………....55 Ellington Volunteer Fire Department ....................... 13 Crystal Lake Volunteer Fire Department .................. 16 Office of Emergency Management ........................... 17 SCHOOL CONTACT INFORMATION…….…56 Ellington Volunteer Ambulance Corps ...................... 18 Animal Control Department .................................. 19 Public Works Department .................................... 21 SCHOOL CALENDAR 2012-2013 …Inside Back Cover LIBRARY Hall Memorial Library ..... …………………………..22 TELEPHONE DIRECTORY …………...Back Cover 2 General Government Administration BOARD OF SELECTMEN: Adopted resolution for Design, Construction, Equipping and Furnishing of a new Senior Center - $2,500,000 setting Special The Board of Selectmen (BOS) is collectively responsible for the Town Meeting Date 1/31/2012; Referendum for administration of the Town offices, the maintenance of the Town 2/14/2012; Vote: yes (1,340) no (573) highways and parks, the public safety of its citizens, the keeping of Appropriated the total sum for all expenditures, A/K/A financial accounts and the appointment of administrative officers, budget grand total for the fiscal year 2012-2013 the sum of boards and commissions.

    6627ch02.qxd_lb 6/22/07 7:31 AM Page 19 2 Game Hacking 101 oftware piracy has long been a problem in the computer games busi- Sness—ever since games moved from stand-alone machines in the 1970s to PCs in the 1980s. Game makers, justifiably, have gone to great lengths to thwart piracy. In the past, game makers added various countermeasures to their software to make games harder to crack. The main purpose was to prevent rampant copying so that people who wanted to play the game had to buy it. In the end, these games were always cracked—but in some cases, the countermeasures delayed the release of a cracked version by days or even weeks. This delay earned real revenue for the game companies because delaying a crack for even a week translated into hundreds of thousands of dollars. Antipiracy countermeasures made some economic sense in the over-the- counter paradigm, in which a gamer purchased a copy of the game from a retailer and installed the copy locally on his or her PC. But things have changed. Many modern games have moved online, and with the advent of game consoles connected to the Internet, this trend is likely to accelerate.1 That means companies now have two revenue sources to protect: the 1. The hugely popular Nintendo Wii, which debuted in late 2006, will certainly accelerate this trend. 19 6627ch02.qxd_lb 6/22/07 7:31 AM Page 20 20 Chapter 2 Game Hacking 101 original game price in the retail channel, and a monthly subscription revenue stream for online access.

  • APPLICATION of PASSIVE SONAR TECHNOLOGY to MINERALS PROCESSING and OIL SANDS APPLICATIONS “If You Can Measure It, You Can Manage It.”
    APPLICATION OF PASSIVE SONAR TECHNOLOGY TO MINERALS PROCESSING AND OIL SANDS APPLICATIONS “If you can measure it, you can manage it.” DR. CHRISTIAN O’KEEFE Principal Engineer, Business Development – Minerals Processing CiDRA Corporation Wallingford, CT 06492 PH: 203-626-3393 [email protected] JOHN VIEGA Vice President, Business Development – Oil Sands CiDRA Corporation Wallingford, CT 06492 PH: 203-626-3373 [email protected] MARK FERNALD Vice President, Product Realization CiDRA Corporation Wallingford, CT 06492 PH: 203-626-3339 [email protected] Key Words: Flowmeter, gas holdup, gas void fraction, slurries, oil sands, magnetite, acid, flow rate BI0285 Rev. A - 1 – Presented at CMP 2007, January 24, 2007 Ottawa, ON ABSTRACT In this presentation, the SONARtrac™ technology platform will be described. CiDRA's proprietary clamp-on, passive sonar array-based flow meter technology performs two independent measurements – flow rate and fluid characterization. Firstly, the meter provides the volumetric flow rate of the mixture by measuring the speed at which naturally occurring turbulent structures convect with the flow past an axial array of sensors. Secondly, the meter uses similar sonar-based processing techniques and naturally occurring sound in the process fluid to measure entrained air levels. The result is a unique ability to measure the flow rate and entrained air level of most fluids – clean liquids, high solids content slurries, and liquids and slurries with entrained air. Also to be presented is the application of the sonar-based technology platform in a variety of oil sands processes, hydrotransport, and minerals beneficiation applications. In particular, difficult slurry flow measurement and control in the areas of comminution and flotation such as mill discharge, hydrocyclone feed/overflow, final concentrate, thickener discharge, and tailings will be discussed.

    Researching system administration by Eric Arnold Anderson B.S. M.S. Carnegie Mellon University 1994 A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Computer Science in the GRADUATE DIVISION of the UNIVERSITY of CALIFORNIA at BERKELEY Committee in charge: Professor Dave Patterson, Chair Professor Doug Tygar Professor Peter Menell Spring 2002 The dissertation of Eric Arnold Anderson is approved: Chair Date Date Date University of California at Berkeley Spring 2002 Researching system administration Copyright 2002 by Eric Arnold Anderson 1 Abstract Researching system administration by Eric Arnold Anderson Doctor of Philosophy in Computer Science University of California at Berkeley Professor Dave Patterson, Chair System administration is a phenomenally important, yet surprisingly ignored sub-field of Computer Science. We hypothesize that this avoidance is because approaches for perform- ing academic research on system administration problems are not well known. To reduce the difficulty of performing research, we present a small set of principles that can be used to evaluate solutions, a classification of existing research on system administration, and three approaches to research on system administration that we illustrate with the research that we have done. First, we demonstrate the approach of “Let the human handle it” with the CARD clus- ter monitoring system. We show that CARD is more flexible and scalable than earlier approaches. We also show that monitoring is necessary for system administration, but that this research approach is not a complete solution to system administration problems. 2 Second, we demonstrate the approach of “Rewrite everything” with the River I/O pro- gramming infrastructure.

    “LOVING ME AND MY BUTTERFLY WINGS:” A STUDY OF HIP-HOP SONGS WRITTEN BY ADOLESCENTS IN MUSIC THERAPY A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY _______________________________________________________________________ by Michael Viega January 2013 Examining Committee Members: Kenneth Aigen, Advisory Chair, Music Therapy Cheryl Dileo, Music Therapy Edward Flanagan, Music Lisa Kay, Art and Art Education © by Michael D. Viega, 2013 All Rights Reserved i ABSTRACT The aim of this arts-based research study was to experience, analyze, and gain insight into songs written by adolescents who have had adverse childhood experiences and who identify with Hip Hop culture. This study investigated the aesthetic components of eleven songs including their musical elements, the compositional techniques, the affective- intuitive qualities, and the interaction between the music and the lyrics. An arts-based research design, rooted in the ethos of Hip Hop, was employed to gain a holistic understanding of the songs. My artistic encounters and subsequent analyses of the songs revealed the complex inner struggles and developmental challenges for adolescents who have experienced extreme trauma. Three groupings of songs emerged: Songs that Protect Vulnerability, Songs of Abandonment, and Songs of Faith and Love. Each category reflects a different stage of developmental growth for the songwriters. Employing Fowler’s (1981/1995) stages of faith development, a music-centered
