1. The document discusses changes to F-1 student employment options under a new interim final rule published in April 2008, including a 17-month extension for STEM OPT and H-1B cap gap relief.
2. It outlines the different types of F-1 employment (on-campus, off-campus, CPT, OPT) and requirements for each.
3. Students are warned that unauthorized employment is illegal and can result in fines, jail time, or deportation. They are advised to stay informed of the rules by visiting the International Student Services Office.
This document discusses using the Ultra Light Inertial Profiler (ULIP) to inventory and prioritize sidewalk hazards. The ULIP allows 100% data collection of sidewalk characteristics at high accuracy and integrates the data into a GIS system. This provides cities with detailed information on sidewalk barriers to prioritize maintenance. The City of Bellevue implemented the ULIP through a pilot program, finding it could inventory 336 miles of sidewalk at a lower estimated cost than traditional methods.
The Americans with Disabilities Act 1990 (ADA), is a landmark civil rights law that prohibits discrimination based on disability. Title II of the ADA requires state and local governments to make their programs and services accessible to persons with disabilities. This requirement extends not only to physical access at government facilities, programs and events — but also to pedestrian facilities in public rights-of-way. To comply with the ADA, every state and local government is required to prepare a self-evaluation report to identify program access issues. From this, a transition plan is required, with a schedule identifying corrective measures to achieve a barrier-free environment. In 2008, Bellevue undertook an ADA sidewalk and curb ramp self-evaluation update to assess its program responsibilities for existing pedestrian facilities in the public rights-of-way. The City employed innovative technologies to document barriers and prioritize improvements where most needed. Implementation of this technology development and compliance effort involved a coordinated staffing and funding commitment from the City of Bellevue, Federal Highway Administration and King County, with technical support from Starodub Inc., an engineering services firm. The technical precision offered by Bellevue’s approach is identified as a best practice in ADA Compliance at Transportation Agencies: A Review of Practices (NCHRP 20-07 Task 249), a Texas Transportation Institute study. The report notes that “[e]fforts such as those at the City of Bellevue, Washington, that rely on the collection of large datasets at extremely fine spatial and temporal disaggregation levels have the potential to significantly automate the identification of non-compliant locations in the field.”
The document summarizes information presented at a SEVIS II forum discussing the transition from the current Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS I) to the new SEVIS II system.

Suggestions are provided for institutions and individuals to prepare for the transition through activities like reviewing policies and procedures.

The document discusses the results of the Colombian presidential election between Juan Manuel Santos and Antanas Mockus. It summarizes some of the media commentary on Mockus' campaign. While Mockus presented an alternative as an honest candidate, his campaign strategies did not work at the national level. Mockus made comments about taxes that alarmed voters and contradicted himself frequently. He also lacked a well-structured government plan, which hurt him in debates. In conclusion, while Mockus offered transparency, the analysis finds that it is unlikely he will win due to weaknesses in presenting clear arguments and demonstrating knowledge of his proposals.

1. The city of Bellevue worked with the FHWA to use an innovative Ultra Light Inertial Profiler (ULIP) to precisely measure sidewalk accessibility features like slopes and displacements.
2. Mounted on a Segway, the ULIP uses lasers, gyroscopes and other sensors to capture sidewalk data at a high rate of accuracy and tie it to GPS coordinates.
3. This large dataset is then analyzed to identify non-compliant locations and inform a transition plan to improve pedestrian accessibility as required by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
The City of Bellevue conducted an inventory of its sidewalks and curb ramps to evaluate accessibility for people with disabilities, as required by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The city used an Ultra Light Inertial Profiler to collect detailed data on sidewalk grades, slopes, and other accessibility features. Staff validated the data with a smart level and ensured the technology provided accurate and repeatable measurements. The city is now analyzing the data in a database and GIS system to prioritize barrier removal and bring sidewalks into compliance with ADA standards.
This document discusses how the City of Bellevue used advanced technologies like inertial profilers and GPS devices to conduct a comprehensive self-evaluation of its sidewalks and curb ramps to assess compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). It outlines the multi-step process, which included data collection, quality assurance checks, database analysis to identify barriers, and programming improvements. The approach allowed the city to efficiently collect detailed measurements to identify non-compliant slopes, surfaces and other issues that could impede accessibility.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

5. Changing Transit Service Structure
“Continuing decentralization of population and employment in King County has
decreased travel to Seattle in general and downtown Seattle in particular and has
resulted in the rapid growth of suburb-to-suburb and intra-community trips.”

7. Current Transit Services
Current market conditions necessitate
transit service improvements ...
Hours of Operation
•Weekday services tend to be limited to
peak hours.
•Mid-day & evening service is poor.
•Weekend service negligible all times.
Service Frequency
•Largely 60+ minute - resulting in
lengthy waits.
Service Area Coverage
•Access limited or absent in many parts
of the City.
8. Findings
Despite past success, transit services need improvement
Hours of Operation
• Weekday services tend to be limited to peak hours; mid-day and
evening service is poor.
• Bus schedules do not match school schedules (Bellevue schools out
by 12:30 on Wednesdays).
• Weekend services are negligible at all times.
• All-day service needed on 116th for access to medical offices.
Service Frequency
• Eastside routes have over-loaded buses; people are turned away.
• More service is needed to ensure that missed transfer connections do
not result in 60+ minute wait times.
9. Findings, continued
Service Area Coverage
• Access is limited or absent in many parts of the City.
• Bus stops in Bellevue are too far of a walk in many areas.
Directness of Service
Poor connections:
• Between neighborhoods
• Neighborhoods and Downtown Bellevue
• Other Eastside destinations
Travel Time
• Transfers require additional time and make transit less attractive.

13. Bellevue Transit Network Vision
Serve Bellevue with urban quality transit service and establish a route
network for future improvements.
Bellevue - Bellevue
• Improved downtown circulation vis-à-vis the distributed service network.

(e.g., East Bellevue, SE Bellevue, Crossroads) and Activity Centers (both P&R lots
and community centers).
Bellevue - Eastside
• New connection between Kirkland & downtown Bellevue (Overlake Hospital).
• Enhanced connections between Kirkland and Redmond to Overlake employment.
• Improved access between Renton & downtown Bellevue.
• Improved access between Issaquah & downtown Bellevue.
Bellevue - Regional
• Enhance off-peak period frequencies to connect with all-day regional services.
• Eliminate duplicative regional service.

Serve Bellevue with urban quality
transit service and establish a route
network for future improvements.
Neighborhood & Eastside Access
• Greater access to activity centers
from route extensions.
• More frequency to facilitate
convenient transfers.
• Improve routing to enhance
neighborhood access.
Regional Coordination
• Enhance frequency during off-
peak periods to connect with all-
day regional services.
• Eliminate duplicative regional
service
17. Lessons Learned
Completed project successfully, on-time & below budget …
• Undertook early examination of data in-house - To expedite the
process, the City had in-place an early understanding of the problems
needing to be addressed by the consultant team.
• Clarified project direction before work began - Held pre-scoping
design/build meetings prior to contract initiation to identify
opportunities and challenges of scope and timeline of project.
• Created a collaborative planning process - Entranco, Perteet, Transpo
Group, and Browne & Associates each assigned to specific work
assignments & encouraged to collaborate in sharing of ideas.
• Developed realistic recommendations - List of solutions are
financially constrained and technically defensible.
• Articulated transit vision - City’s goals & objectives are better
represented in guiding KCM’s service planning process.
18. Bellevue Transit Plan Approach
Service plan
• Evaluate existing & future markets
• Evaluate existing services (span, frequency, coverage)
• Recommend approach for new investment
Capital plan
• Identify infrastructure improvements to improve transit travel
time & reliability (signal priority, ped/bike connections)
Policy plan
• Consider policy directions to unify transit and growth decisions
