Mindful of its mission as a public institution, the University of California...seeks to enroll, on each of its campuses, a student body that, beyond meeting the University’s eligibility requirements, demonstrates high academic achievement or exceptional personal talent, and that encompasses the broad diversity of cultural, racial, geographic, and socio-economic backgrounds characteristic of California.
In December 1995, following passage the previous July of Regents Resolution SP-1, a task force convened by the President of the University reviewed existing Guidelines for the Implementation of University Policy on Undergraduate Admissions and recommended substantive changes. The revised Guidelines were issued in July 1996 and revised in May 2000 to reflect the University’s newly adopted Eligibility in the Local Context (ELC) policy.
the University shall seek out and enroll, on each of its campuses, a student body that demonstrates high academic achievement or exceptional personal talent, and that encompasses the broad diversity of backgrounds characteristic of California.
Following the passage of RE-28, the President asked the Academic Senate to consider the adoption of evaluation procedures that would look at applicants in a comprehensive manner and would utilize a variety of measures of achievement.
The present revision of the Guidelines follows extensive deliberation on the part of the Academic Senate, its Board of Admissions and Relations with Schools (BOARS), and its individual campus divisions and faculty admissions committees undertaken during the summer of 2001. The work of the Academic Senate built on themes already developed by the 1995 Task Force. For example, the report of the Task Force commented on the “need for a comprehensive review of the methods used for assessing academic performance, beyond utilizing criteria such as GPA and standardized test scores” and suggested that “the selection process could be altered in the future to include a more comprehensive approach to reviewing students’ academic accomplishments and personal backgrounds.” The work of the Academic Senate should be considered as yet another step in the continuing evolution of undergraduate admissions practices and policies.
Effective with applicants seeking admission for the fall 2002 term and thereafter, the following revised guidelines and procedures shall be followed for implementation of the 1988 University of California Policy on Undergraduate Admissions and RE-28, adopted in May 2001.
These selection guidelines apply to campuses that have to select from a pool of eligible applicants, and to students who have met the established UC eligibility requirements for admission. These eligibility requirements are established by the University in conformance with the specifications outlined in the California Master Plan for Higher Education, which specifies that the top one-eighth of the State’s public high school graduates, as well as those community college transfer students who have successfully completed specified college work, be eligible for admission to the University of California.
These guidelines provide the framework within which campuses shall establish specific criteria and procedures for the selection of undergraduate applicants to be admitted when the number of eligible applicants exceeds the places available.
The process by which students applying to UC campuses are evaluated for admission using multiple measures of achievement and promise while considering the context in which each student has demonstrated academic accomplishment.
1. The admissions process honors academic achievement and accords priority to students of high academic accomplishment. At the same time, merit should be assessed in terms of the full range of an applicant’s academic and personal achievements and likely contribution to the campus community, viewed in the context of the opportunities and challenges that the applicant has faced.
2. Campus admissions procedures should involve a comprehensive review of applications using a broad variety of factors to select an entering class.
3. No fixed proportion of applicants should be admitted based solely on a narrow set of criteria.
4. Campus policies should reflect continued commitment to the goal of enrolling classes that exhibit academic excellence as well as diversity of talents and abilities, personal experience, and backgrounds.
5. Faculty on individual campuses should be given flexibility to create admission policies and practices that, while consistent with Universitywide criteria and policies, are also sensitive to local campus values and academic priorities.
6. The admission process should select students of whom the campus will be proud, and who give evidence that they will use their education to make contributions to the intellectual, cultural, social, and political life of the State and the Nation.
7. The admissions process should select those students who demonstrate a strong likelihood that they will persist to graduation.
8. Campus selection policies should ensure that no applicant will be denied admission without a comprehensive review of his or her file.
Faculty takes their responsibilities for admission and selection very seriously. BOARS anticipates that campuses will act autonomously in designing campus-specific policies and processes that are consistent with Universitywide policies and guidelines. BOARS will continue to monitor campus policies and work with faculty to continuously improve the processes and outcomes.
The following criteria provide a comprehensive list of factors campuses may use to select their admitted class. Based on campus-specific institutional goals and needs, admissions decisions will be based on a broad variety of factors to ensure attainment of the goals set forth in the 1988 University of California Policy on Undergraduate Admissions and RE-28.
1. Academic Grade Point Average (GPA) calculated on all academic courses completed in the subject areas specified by the University's eligibility requirements (the a-f subjects), including additional points for completion of University certified honors courses (see 4, below). It is recommended that the maximum value allowed for the GPA shall be 4.0.
2. Scores on the following tests: the Scholastic Assessment Test I or the American College Test, and the College Board Scholastic Assessment Test II: Subject Tests.
3. The number, content of, and performance in courses completed in academic subjects beyond the minimum specified by the University's eligibility requirements.
4. The number of and performance in University approved honors courses, College Board Advanced Placement courses, International Baccalaureate courses, and transferable college courses completed. It is recommended that caution be exercised in order not to assign excessive weight to these courses, especially if considerable weight already has been given in the context of 1, above. Additionally, in recognition of existing differences in availability of these courses among high schools, it is recommended that reviewers assess completion of this coursework against the availability of these courses at the candidate’s secondary school.
5. Being identified as eligible in the local context, by being ranked in the top 4% of the class at the end of the junior year, as determined by academic criteria established by the University of California.
6. The quality of the senior year program, as measured by type and number of academic courses (see 3 and 4, above) in progress or planned.
7. The quality of academic performance relative to the educational opportunities available in the applicant’s secondary school.
8. Outstanding performance in one or more specific academic subject areas.
9. Outstanding work in one or more special projects in any academic field of study.
10. Recent, marked improvement in academic performance, as demonstrated by academic grade point average and quality of coursework (see 3 and 4, above) completed and in progress, with particular attention being given to the last two years of high school.
11. Special talents, achievements, and awards in a particular field, such as in the visual and performing arts, in communication, or in athletic endeavors; special skills, such as demonstrated written and oral proficiency in other languages; special interests, such as intensive study and exploration of other cultures; or experiences that demonstrate unusual promise for leadership, such as significant community service or significant participation in student government; or other significant experiences or achievements that demonstrate the applicant’s promise for contributing to the intellectual vitality of a campus.
12. Completion of special projects undertaken either in the context of the high school curriculum or in conjunction with special school events, projects or programs co-sponsored by the school, community organizations, postsecondary educational institutions, other agencies, or private firms, that offer significant evidence of an applicant’s special effort and determination or that may indicate special suitability to an academic program on a specific campus.
13. Academic accomplishments in light of the applicant’s life experiences and special circumstances. These experiences and circumstances may include, but are not limited to, disabilities, low family income, first generation to attend college, need to work, disadvantaged social or educational environment, difficult personal and family situations or circumstances, refugee status, or veteran status.
14. Location of the applicant’s secondary school and residence. These factors shall be considered in order to provide for geographic diversity in the student population and also to account for the wide variety of educational environments existing in California.
Advanced standing applicants shall be selected by each campus using the criteria listed below as well as criteria 11-14 listed above. Priority consideration for admission of advanced standing applicants shall be given to upper division junior transfers from California Community Colleges.
1. Completion of a specified pattern or number of courses that meet breadth or general education requirements.
2. Completion of a specified pattern or number of courses that provide continuity with upper division courses in the major.
3. Grade point average in all transferable courses, and, in particular, grade point average in lower division courses required for the applicant’s intended major.
4. Participation in academically selective honors courses or programs.
A common filing period for submission of applications shall be established by the Office of the President in consultation with the campuses. These dates shall be observed by all campuses and may be extended only if a campus determines that additional applications are required to meet enrollment targets. All applications submitted during the prescribed dates shall receive equal consideration for admission.
Applicants shall file one application on which they shall indicate all the campuses where they wish to be considered for admission.
Campuses shall observe and publish a common notification period for notifying applicants of their admission status.
UC eligible resident applicants, who have not been admitted at any of the campuses of their choice shall be offered a space at other UC campuses where space is available. This process, called referral, reaffirms the long-standing University commitment to provide a place for every eligible California applicant who wishes to enroll.
3. Enrollment at a community college with provision for admission at a later time, if a stated level of academic achievement is maintained (for freshman applicants only).
These guidelines apply to those students eligible for admission. Up to 6 percent of new enrolled freshmen and 6 percent of new enrolled advanced standing students can be admitted by exception, as authorized by The Regents. Refer also to the Policy on Undergraduate Admissions by Exception.

As part of the continuing campaign for the abolition of NHS prescription charges in all of the UK we are asking trades unionists to move a resolution to their national union conferences. Below is a model resolution. Please let us know if you manage to get your union branch to pass the resolution for forwarding to your national conference. We will providea briefing for any delegates who will be moving the resolution at their conference/AGM.
This conference welcomes the campaign of Swindon TUC for abolition of NHS prescription charges in all of the UK (https://abolishprescriptioncharges.wordpress.com ). Despite the concessions made by the government in response to the campaign by a range of organisations, some patients in England face continuation of the charges. Charges have already been abolished in Wales and are being phased out in Scotland and Northern Ireland.
It makes no sense for a shrinking number of people in only one of the four countries comprising the UK to have to continue paying the charges whilst they are abolished for everybody else.
We believe that this injustice must be brought to an end. The (union name) will campaign for an end to charges in all of the UK. So long as they remain in place then it cannot be said that treatment in the NHS is free at the point of use.
the exemption from charges for people with “long term conditions”, sometime “over the next few years”.

When composer-musicologist Alec Wilder’s highly literate book “American Popular Song – the Great Innovators” was published by the Oxford Press in 1972 one of my favorite pastimes was making two lists.
1) Superior songs that he missed or for which he did not share my enthusiasm.
2) Songs that he included that did not, in my estimation, merit discussion.
Wilder’s book was the first to treat pop songs as worthy of serious (but never solemn) discussion. His prose is lively, most readable, and he examined about seventeen thousand songs and cited with comments three hundred of those. In his musical examples he quoted from nearly five hundred more songs. Perhaps rightly so, he excluded his own well-written songs. Since Wilder is not a “plain vanilla” writer (contrarily, an eager vendor of opinions) he is a fun man to disagree with but, even so, both of my above lists were quite short. Examples of songs in that first “overlooked” list include “I Remember You,” For All We Know” and “Easy Living” which I discuss in this article.
One of the earliest recordings of “Easy Living” was pianist Teddy Wilson’s feature for Billie Holiday (see link below). Their recording was a Top 20 hit but few vocalists adopted the song over the next decade. However, in the 1950s other singers and instrumentalists gradually picked up on the song. Ballad treatments by jazz artists such as George Shearing, Clifford Brown and Peggy Lee did much to establish the song in jazz circles. Pianist Bill Evans featured the song on his 1956 date for Riverside Records and Miles Davis included it with an unconventional rhythm section of bassist Charles Mingus and Elvin Jones, at the drums (Blue Moods, 1955).
As noted “Easy Living” appeared as an instrumental in the 1937 movie of same name. Three years later in the excellent Barbara Stanwyck movie Remember the Night it appears once again. Billie Holiday’s version is playing in a supper club where Fred MacMurray takes Stanwyck for dinner. The song was also performed by Audrey Young in a 1949 film titled Easy Living, but which has no connection to the original 1937 comedy of same name. Victor Mature and Lizabeth Scott were the stars of this later movie that was based on an Irwin Shaw novel. Perhaps most memorably “Easy Living” was sung by Johnny Hartman in Clint Eastwood’s’ romantic 1995 Bridges of Madison County (see link below).
1) As the expression goes Billie Holiday “owns” this song. She recorded it twice, first in 1937 with Teddy Wilson’s combo (including Lester Young) and, later on, her own session in 1947. Below is a link to that first version. Buster Bailey opens the first few bars on clarinet and then the masterful Young and others play soulfully behind Lady Day who sings it for what it is – an anthem to young love.
2) The master balladeer Clifford “Brownie” Brown’s regal version of “Easy Living” was recorded in 1953 on Blue Note. It has since been anthologized many times, including the 2002 The Definitive Clifford Brown (which also includes a lyrical version of “Stardust” and vocals by Sarah Vaughan).
3) Alan Broadbent included the song on his 1995 Pacific Standard Time CD (Concord). The elegant refined Alan Broadbent Trio includes Putter Smith on bass and Frank Gibson on drums.
4) Little is as romantic as the burnished baritone of Johnny Hartman singing a ballad. Clint Eastwood agreed and included his songs in the 1995 movie Bridges of Madison Country. Just close your eyes and visualize Robert (Clint) and Francesca (Meryl Streep) lovingly dancing in her Iowa farmhouse kitchen. Hartman’s version was from a 1980 recording titled Once in Every Life (Bee Hive) which included such jazz stalwarts as Joe Wilder, Frank Wess and Billy Taylor.
5) Saxophonist Paul Desmond and guitarist Jim Hall make a glorious pairing and I consider their many collaborations (18 recording sessions) to be essential jazz. This 1964 take on “Easy Living” can be found on various compilations including a Bluebird CD titled Easy Living and also The Complete Paul Desmond, RCA Victor Recordings Featuring Jim Hall, Desmond follows Hall’s autumnal intro with a piping reading of Rainger’s lovely melody on this glorious seven-minute rendition.
You may also wish to investigate recordings by the following artists.
1) Additional vocal renditions – Mary Ann McCall, Etta Jones, Ann Hampton Callaway, Dinah Washington, Bobby Darin, Rosemary Clooney, Nancy Wilson, Kurt Elling, Ella Fitzgerald and even an early rock and roll doo-wop version by The Coasters.

The purpose of this study was to examine the reliability of age band 2 of the Movement Assessment Battery for Children – Second Edition (MABC-2), using test re-test, internal consistency, and standard error of measurement (SEM) reliability estimates. To date, only one study has been conducted on the reliability of age band 2 (7 to 10 year olds) (Holm, Tveter, Aulie, & Stuge, 2013), thus more research is warranted as many practitioners consider this tool as a gold standard in this area. Forty typically functioning children (18 boys, 22 girls) between the ages of 7 and 10 (M = 9 years, 0 months, 5 days, SD = 1 year, 0 months, 15 days) participated in this study. Each child completed two, thirty-minute sessions, one to two weeks apart, and was examined by the same researcher in the same laboratory setting. Intra-class correlation (ICC) coefficient was used to examine the test-retest stability of the Total Impairment Score (TIS) and three sub-section scores. Cronbach’s alpha was used to examine the internal consistency of the items. Lastly, the SEM was computed to infer the magnitude of absolute reliability for each of the four scores. The normality, skewness and kurtosis of ICC, Cronbach’s alpha and SEM were tested first across standard, component, and percentile scores. The analyses showed that for the standard scores, aiming and catching and balance sessions at time 1, and balance items at time 2 did not meet the assumptions of normality. The component scores showed similar results, while the assumption of normality was jeopardized for six out of eight percentile scores. The analyses of variance and scatterplots supported the inferences emerging from the normality tests. Overall, the normality results revealed that the standard scores best represented a normal distribution and met the necessary statistical assumptions.

Surf's up - in Beijing. Hollister Co., the surf-themed chain from Abercrombie & Fitch, is opening a new store on Saturday in the Chinese city's commercial district - its seventh location in China, including two in Hong Kong. Plans call for more to come.
Surf's up - in Beijing.
Hollister Co., the surf-themed chain from Abercrombie & Fitch, is opening a new store on Saturday in the Chinese city's commercial district - its seventh location in China, including two in Hong Kong. Plans call for more to come.
While a surf-themed retail store would seem to be an odd fit for the inland capital of China, the New Albany-based retailer has seen early success since opening its first two Hollister stores in China in 2011.
"It's very early days, but we're very encouraged by what we've seen," said Jonathan E. Ramsden, the retailer's chief financial officer.
All four of the current Chinese stores are performing well. "When we opened up in China, we didn't have anything like the level of awareness when we open up in Germany or in the U.K., so the stores opened more modestly," Ramsden told investors during a recent conference.
The seeming clash of culture hasn't been an issue at all, a company spokeswoman said.
"Our Hollister marketing and store experience is the same around the world," spokeswoman Mackenzie Bruce said. "Our consumers in China are receptive to the brand and are excited to be a part of the laid-back, casual lifestyle that Hollister provides."
Sales bear out that judgment, company officials said. Comparable-store sales, a key indicator of a retailer's health, rose in the Chinese stores by about 40 percent in the quarter, "even in a difficult inventory environment, which continues to give us optimism about Asia," said Michael S. Jeffries, Abercrombie's chairman and CEO.
While Abercrombie launched Hollister Co. in July 2000 with a southern California surfer image, the chain's strong sales can also be at least partly attributed to the fact that it has lower prices than its older sibling.
"Moreover, Hollister stores are smaller in size compared to (Abercrombie & Fitch) stores and thus their capital expenditures are lower," analysts at financial website Trefis.com wrote recently in a note to investors. "Together, these aspects make Hollister a viable option for international expansion."
Abercrombie officials have indicated that, based on strong performance so far, the company will open more Hollister stores in China in the coming year, but would not offer further details.

WEDNESDAY: As expected, Lamb was placed on release waivers according to Haudricourt.
TUESDAY: According to Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, the Brewers cut third baseman Mike Lamb today. Lamb can either head to Triple A or become a free agent. Based on his comments, Lamb isn't interested in Triple A. The Brewers have instead decided to go with Casey McGehee in a backup infield role. It's not a big financial loss for the Brewers, as the Twins are on the hook for most of Lamb's salary.

Other materials we process include DH-36, AH-36, EH-36 and FH-40 steel plate. We can fabricate custom structural steel shapes and components from a variety of alloys including A-572 grades, A-36, A-514, stainless steel and high nickel alloys.
Jan 09, 2006· As part of a larger project I'm working on, I need to specify the welding of a 410 stainless steel plate to an A36 structural steel I-beam. The I-beam is partly embedded in a concrete structure. The purpose of the stainless steel plate is for wear and corrosion resistance. A self-lubricated bearing pad slides on the plate.
An intermediate-strength, normalized, structural steel plate utilized in the welded construction of offshore structures. This grade is regulated by the American Petroleum Institute (API).
Hot Forming Steel. Hot forming occurs when the plate is between 1,600 and 1,700 degrees F. This reduces or even eliminates strain hardening, cracking of the radius, and distortion of the grain structure. The high temperature causes the plate to recrystallize, actually changing its molecular structure.
DNV EH40 steel is a kind of high tensile strength marine steel. All of these steels have been engineered to be optimal long-lived shipbuilding steels. DNV EH40 Shipbuilding steel plates are mainly used for making the offshore oil drilling platform, the hull of ship building and ship repairing, the platform pipe joints and other components.

2012-06-19 Assigned to SONITUS MEDICAL, INC. reassignment SONITUS MEDICAL, INC. ASSIGNMENT OF ASSIGNORS INTEREST (SEE DOCUMENT FOR DETAILS). Assignors: ABOLFATHI, AMIR A.
This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 12/862,933 filed Aug. 25, 2010, which is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/672,271 filed Feb. 7, 2007 (now U.S. Pat. No. 7,801,319 issued Sep. 21, 2010), which claims the benefit of priority to U.S. Prov. Pat. App. Ser. Nos. 60/809,244 tiled May 30, 2006 and 60/820,223 filed Jul. 24, 2006, each of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.
Hearing loss affects over 31 million people in the United States (about 13% of the population). As a chronic condition, the incidence of hearing impairment rivals that of heart disease and, like heart disease, the incidence of hearing, impairment increases sharply with age.
Yet another process which may utilize the multiple transducers may include the utilization of directionality via the conducted vibrations to emulate the directional perception of audio signals received by the user. In one example for providing, the perception of directionality with an oral appliance, two or more transducers may be positioned apart from one another along respective retaining portions. One transducer may be actuated corresponding to an audio signal while the other transducer may be actuated corresponding to the same audio signal but with a phase and/or amplitude and/or delay difference intentionally induced corresponding to a direction emulated for the user. Generally, upon receiving a directional audio signal and depending upon the direction to be emulated and the separation between the respective transducers, a particular phase and/or gain and/or delay change to the audio signal may be applied to the respective transducer while leaving the other transducer to receive the audio signal unchanged.
FIG. 4 illustrates a schematic representation of one variation of hearing aid assembly 14 utilizing an extra-buccal transmitter assembly 22, which may generally comprise microphone or microphone array 30 (referred to “microphone 30” for simplicity) for receiving sounds and which is electrically connected to processor 32 for processing the auditory signals. Processor 32 may be connected electrically to transmitter 34 for transmitting the processed signals to the electronics and/or transducer assembly 16 disposed upon or adjacent to the user's teeth. The microphone 30 and processor 32 may be configured to detect and process auditory signals in any practicable range, but may be configured in one variation to detect auditory signals ranging, from, e.g., 250 Hertz to 20,000 Hertz.
As mentioned above, compensating 208 for an orientation of the transducers relative to one another as well as relative to an orientation of the user may be taken into account in calculating any adjustments to phase and/or amplitude and/or delay of the signals applied to the transducers. For example, the direction 230 perpendicular to a line 224 connecting the microphones 226, 228 (intra-buccal and/or extra-buccal) may define a zero degree direction of the microphones. A zero degree direction' of the user's head may be indicated by the direction 222, which may be illustrated as in FIG. 16 as the direction the user's nose points towards. The difference between the zero degree direction of the microphones and the zero degree direction of the user's head may define an angle; Θ, which may be taken into account as a correction factor when determining the phase and/or amplitude adjustments. Accordingly, if the positioning of microphones 226, 228 are such that their zero degree direction is aligned with the zero degree direction of the user's head, then little or no correction may be necessary. If the positioning of the microphones 226, 228 is altered relative to the user's body and an angle is formed relative to the zero degree direction of the user's head, then the audio signals received by the user and the resulting vibrations conducted by the transducers to the user may be adjusted for phase and/or amplitude taking into account the angle, Θ, when emulating directionality with the vibrating transducers.
wherein the transducer housing and the electronics housing produce an interference fit between the apparatus and the first side and second side of the at least one tooth and thereby secure the apparatus to the at least one tooth.
2. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the transducer housing and/or the electronics housing comprise a polymer.
3. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the apparatus is configured to omit an occlusal surface.
4. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the actuatable transducer comprises a piezoelectric element.

That is awesome that you were able to receive the free Disney Dining Plan for your upcoming trip to Walt Disney World! I have to tell you that the Deluxe Dining Plan is a whole lot of food because it has three Table Service Credits per person per day. Whether it is worth it to upgrade to the Deluxe Dining Plan depends on if you love trying new restaurants and plan to to spend 3 to 4 hours or more a day eating your meals because sit down restaurants do take a lot longer for a meal than a quick service.
Only those guests who are in your room and are on the Dining Plan are permitted to use the Dining Plan Credits. If you choose the Deluxe Dining Plan you could use the extra credits on Signature Dining (2 Credit Table Service Restaurants), certain character Dining like Cinderella's Royal Table, or Dinner Show Meals such as the Hoop Dee Doo Musical Revue or the Spirit of Aloha.
I hope that you have many magical meals on your next Walt Disney World vacation!

ROCKY MOUNTAIN HIGH: UMass’ Cale Makar puts on his Colorado Avalanche jersey last night in Chicago.
MAKAR: Blueliner a boon to Minutemen, Avalanche.
TOP PROSPECT: After being drafted fourth overall by the Colorado Avalanche in June, Cale Makar has transitioned to college hockey with UMass.
Cale Makar of UMass photo courtesy of UMass.
Cale Makar’s first visit to TD Garden occurred on Sept. 26 for Hockey East media day. It likely won’t be his last.
Taken fourth overall by the Colorado Avalanche in the NHL draft in June, Makar knows a return trip to Boston is likely.
Makar was recruited to UMass from Calgary by former coach John Micheletto. When UMass fired Micheletto and hired Greg Carvel last year, athletic director Ryan Bamford told his new coach how important it was to retain Makar.
“When I accepted the job at UMass, the first thing my AD said was ‘You need to get on the phone and call Cale Makar.’ And, that’s what I did. My next call was to his dad. We built a relationship. They did their homework on me. They’re comfortable with my background and the players I’ve coached,” Carvel said.
Makar is a game-changer. A fabulous skater with a right-hand shot, Makar has been hailed as one of the purest talents ever to come out of the Alberta Junior Hockey League. He has also gained plaudits for his hockey IQ. Makar spent a lot of time in Amherst this summer bonding with his new teammates. Now six games into his UMass career, he is playing at a plus-1 level with three assists.
The freshman is coming to a program that went 5-29-2 in Carvel’s first season, and he wants to help change the culture.
Makar, who admired Jarome Iginla while growing up as a dyed-in-the-wool Calgary Flames fan, discounted any self-imposed pressure as a result of his high draft status.
Carvel, whose club has split its first six games and opens the Hockey East schedule tonight at home against Merrimack, said it is difficult to have expectations as he builds his program in his second year with 13 freshmen and two transfers.
Carvel won’t set expectations, but does intend to improve on last year’s meager win total.
One thing Carvel does not have any doubts about is Makar’s talent.
“He is remarkable,” Carvel said. “He has his head on his shoulders. He’s very humble. He’s a very hard-working kid. I can’t speak highly enough about how he handles himself given the situations he’s put himself in. We’re very fortunate to have him not only for what he’ll do on the ice but the character he’ll bring to the team.

In his excellent introduction to a series of blog posts on writing in science, Pritesh Raichura writes, “The task of teaching pupils is not reserved solely for English teachers. You cannot teach writing devoid of content, and you cannot truly say you teach a discipline unless your pupils become proficient at explaining the ideas of your subject in prose. So, teaching writing through your subject is inevitable.” Although Raichura and other teacher-authors in this online symposium are writing about science, much of what they describe is applicable to all disciplines.
The strategies Natalie Wexler and I present in The Writing Revolution (Jossey-Bass 2017)— and which are disseminated to schools and teachers through a nonprofit organization by the same name—are as much a method of teaching content as of teaching writing. As Tarjinder Gill observes in her blog, too often students at the primary or elementary level have been asked to write only about their personal experiences or opinions, with an emphasis on self-expression and creativity. In addition, as both Gill and Ruth Walker point out, even when students write about topics beyond their own experience, a particular writing skill or “literacy objective” has been prioritized over the subject matter.
That kind of practice is unlikely to equip students with skills that transfer to the writing they need to do for subjects like science and history. And studies have shown that teaching the mechanics of writing in isolation as a set of rules and definitions generally has no positive impact. When embedded in the content of the curriculum, however, writing instruction not only develops skills but can also be a powerful teaching tool—at any grade level and for any subject.
But, as others in this symposium have recognized, sentence-level activities shouldn’t be confined to the primary grades or beginning writers. If teachers connect the activities with the subject matter they’re teaching, they’ll find them useful and challenging at any grade level. The form of the activity stays the same; the content is what determines the rigour.
For example, one of TWR’s sentence-level strategies involves the conjunctions because, but, and so. The teacher gives students a single independent clause and asks them to add on to it in different ways, using one or more of those conjunctions.
Global warming is a problem for many species because they could lose their habitats.
Global warming is a problem for many species, but if people stop burning fossil fuels, it would help.
Global warming is a problem for many species, so scientists are trying to educate people about the dangers of fossil fuels.
Aerobic respiration is similar to anaerobic respiration______________________ .
Aerobic respiration is similar to anaerobic respiration because both start with glucose and make ATP.
Aerobic respiration is similar to anaerobic respiration, but anaerobic respiration does not require oxygen.
Aerobic respiration is similar to anaerobic respiration, so both autotrophs and heterotrophs use aerobic and anaerobic respiration.
In each of these cases, students need to return to the material they have been studying and mine it carefully for information to complete the stems. At the same time, they are practicing extending their responses by using conjunctions in their writing.
No matter what content you use with these kinds of activities, their specificity makes them far more powerful than an open-ended question such as, “Why is global warming a problem for many species?’ When students are asked to fill in a blank after but,for example, they must hold two contrasting ideas in their minds and find evidence in a text to support one of them. They are exercising judgment independently, but with the structure they need.
This is the kind of process Ruth Walker refers to when she discusses the power of certain words—like “whereas” and “similarly”—in guiding students to recognize the relationships between concepts. Like Walker, TWR has created lists of such words and phrases, organized into categories like “Time and Sequence” and “Change of Direction.” And, just as Walker does, we recommend that teachers display these lists so that students can refer to them easily when writing.
All types of eukaryotic cells have many common structures, but they do not all look alike.
For example, some types are long and spindly and others look like building blocks.
Therefore, each cell type has a different form.
However, they all contain the same core organelles.
Mitosis and meiosis are similar because they are both types of cell reproduction.
Mitosis and meiosis are similar, but mitosis functions in the growth and repair of body cells and meiosis occurs only in sexually reproducing organisms.
The building blocks of insulin, a protein, are amino acids.
The teacher can then provide students with a list of nouns—related to the content they’ve been studying—along with a list of appositives, and ask them to make the appropriate matches. After that, students can practice adding appositives to sentences they’re given or constructing sentences around certain appositives. After a while, they’ll begin to create their own sentences using appositives without being directed to do so.
When students are ready to embark on writing paragraphs and essays, they’ll be able to draw on their experience with sentence-level activities in drafting and revising. Because of the cognitive load imposed by writing at length, it’s also crucial that students first engage in effective planning.
In his post on lengthier writing, Jasper Green discusses various ways teachers can address the misconceptions that often appear in student essays without spending inordinate amounts of time on them. And, recognizing the demands that writing places on working memory, he urges that students use “context maps” to help them draft essays before they write.
Green is right about the importance of drafting, but in our experience having students complete a linear outline is an effective way of avoiding misconceptions and easing burdens on working memory. TWR’s Single and Multiple Paragraph Outlines, when quickly reviewed by a teacher, can reveal misunderstandings before students arrive at the drafting stage. And we have found that their linear structure provides a clearer guide for drafting than a “map” consisting of interconnected circles. An outline also helps students avoid repeating themselves and going off topic.
Below is an example of our Single Paragraph Outline. Students are taught how to use key words, abbreviations and symbols for their notes on the dotted lines.
It is gratifying and encouraging to see how the teachers who have contributed to this symposium are using strategies like TWR’s to build and deepen students’ knowledge while developing their writing skills. They may also have seen, as we have, that using these strategies boosts students’ reading comprehension and speaking abilities, as well as their analytical thinking. Their experiences and insights will be of great value not only to other science teachers, but to teachers of all subjects and at any grade level.

MANGALURU: The Karnataka State Areca Cooperative Societies Federation has urged the state government to rescind the ban on sale of areca and pan masala sachets separately besides lifting the ban on gutka.
The government's recent move has resulted in crash in areca nut prices leading to a distress among the growers of this horticultural crop, a delegation of the federation that called on minister for law and parliamentary affairs T B Jayachandra in Bengaluru recently, stated.
Asserting that the order has had a disastrous effect on the market price of areca nut, the delegation maintained that the Food Safety Agency of the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India has no authority to ban either areca or pan masala, deleatgion stated adding the ill-effects of this order has been brought to the notice of the commissioner of food safety as well.
The delegation that met Jayachandra after meeting the commissioner, urged him to immediately repeal the above order and ensure that the areca nut growers get a remunerative price for their produce.
Konkodi Padmanabha, president of the federation also urged the areca nut growers not to resort to distress selling of the crop and sell only as much as they require and sit on a buffer to sell when prices of areca nut go up.
The delegation said the minister responded positively to their plea and promised to take up the matter with the authorities concerned.
Campco vice-president Shankarnarayana Bhat Kandige, vice-president of Shivamogga-based Mamcos, Yadagere Subrahmanya, directors of Mamcos Suresh, Suresh Kumar and managing director of Tumcos N P Madhu were part of the delegation.

A week before Easter in 2007, on a beautiful sunny day in Coral Gables, Fla., Patrick Quinlan would receive news that would change his life.
After the pre-teen continuously showed unusual medical symptoms, Quinlan’s mother made the decision to take him to the doctor.
After a series of blood tests at Miami Children’s Hospital, the 12-year-old who comes from a family of artists and musicians was diagnosed with a pre-existing condition: type one diabetes.
Quinlan, who is currently a freshman at the University of Miami and majors in international studies, remembers his mother crying that day.
“I remember even as a preteen, my mother told me that I always needed to have a job. Because if I was on my own, I couldn’t afford this medicine,” he said.
Today, Quinlan’s worries about paying for health care have changed. He is part of a group of young adults who will benefit from President Obama’s health care reform, the Affordable Care Act.
In addition to allowing young adults to stay on their parent’s health insurance until age 26, proponents argue that the act makes it difficult for insurance companies to discriminate against those of all ages with pre-existing conditions.
In the past, insurance companies would deny coverage to those with pre-existing conditions because of the possible hefty costs that could come with insuring individuals with a condition.
The Affordable Care Act has come under much criticism however, particularly because of the individual mandate involved with the reform.
Opponents argue that the reform is an over-extension of government power and that it forces people to pay for health insurance, in some ways serving as a tax.
“I think at this point it’s disingenuous to say it won’t be a huge financial burden. It’s been made clear the amount of tax increases coming along that are going to be enormous. And what that means is that the health care will be a tax. And then you have all the different taxes going with the bill. All of these costs are enormous financial burdens on businesses, families, and insurance policies. We’ve seen immediately following President Obama’s re-election businesses preparing for Obamacare in 2014 and they have started to lay off employees,” said Abigail F. Maclver, director of Policy and External Affairs for the Florida chapter of Americans for Prosperity.
Americans for Prosperity focuses on educating the public about limited government and the importance of a free market economy. With the implementation of the Affordable Care Act, the organization worries about the direction the reform will put the country.
“We as an organization focus on economic policy and fiscal policy, free markets and lower taxes. And the reason we focus on those policies is because those are the key policies to have a prosperous country and to allow every individual to live a prosperous life. And that’s hopefully what every student is going to college to work to achieve,” said Maclver.
Often, graduates fresh out of college, who must carry the burden of paying student loans in a time with increasing tuition hikes, are also faced with the dilemma of no longer being on their parents insurance.
Because of this, students have three major options in obtaining health care, including depending on a prospective job to provide health insurance, paying out of pocket or not having health care at all.
However, many believe that the health care reform won’t be a financial burden. Supporters cite the access to a variety of options in health care that they argue will drive market competition. The Congressional Budget Office put out a report stating that health care will cost the government $938 billion over the course of 10 years; however will actually reduce the U.S. deficit by $138 billion in that same time period.
“I can understand individuals having to pay for health care, but as a country it is deficit neutral. By creating a wider health care market, it spreads the cost so that it’s not just paying for seniors. People who say we shouldn’t be forced to buy health care don’t understand that the entire system fails if everyone isn’t involved in it. Health insurance is something everybody is going to need at some point in their life; it’s like a preemptive way to get everyone in the country working together. I can’t afford my health care if other people in this college aren’t on insurance either,” said Quinlan.
Farha Abbasi, a psychiatrist at Michigan State University who works with college students, says that it is imperative that everyone, including students, have dependable coverage, something both sides agree on.
“The greatest concern right now is that students are seeing their parents struggle financially, so standards of living are going down. Additionally, students are dealing with tuition hikes and unable to find jobs, so that has had a huge effect on a student’s emotional health. Because of the economy, I have seen a huge increase in stress and depression among students,” said Abbasi.
The Kaiser Family Foundation reported for the month of September that about 45 percent of Americans were in favor of the Affordable Care Act while 40 percent were not in favor. However, 14 percent of Americans remain undecided on the health care.
Though the country is divided on its support for the Affordable Care Act, there is no doubt that a health care reform of some kind is deeply needed to counter a broken system with various core issues. The issue at hand is not whether health care reform is needed, but instead what reform looks like.
“First issue is there is a common realization that we are spending huge amounts on health care for more than we need to. That, in terms becomes a global issue, because it means that we can’t compete globally. We don’t get what we pay for. We have a significant amount of people uninsured in this country, so we have 55 million in the United States who have no health insurance. And the fourth issue is we have very poor patient safety,” said Steven G. Ullmann, professor and director of programs in Health Sector Management and Policy at the University of Miami on areas where our health care system needs to be reformed.
Many efforts to educate young adults on the variety of options they have with health care reform are in place. With the Supreme Court upholding the Affordable Care Act in June of this year, many changes will be occurring. Some organizations are taking initiatives to help young adults make a transition into a new health system.
Young Invincibles is a group that mobilizes young adults on issues of higher education, health care and jobs. The group recently started a campaign to help young adults adjust to changes in health care. Recently, the organization created a new mobile application that allows their users, who are mainly young adults, to find local medical centers.
“Once you understand the health care world, you become a powerful consumer. Being able to educate and show young people benefits allow us to really see improvements in their lives,” said Jen Mishory, deputy director of Young Invincibles.
Issues over health care are likely to arise as various phases of the reform are enacted. Policy makers on both sides agree that reform is needed to ensure that citizens are receiving adequate health services. The issue however arises with how to go about implementing reform, hence the protest from some policy makers and citizens of the Affordable Care Act.
Donna Shalala, former Clinton Administration Secretary of Health and Human Services and current president at the University of Miami, says that the discussions on health care reveals something deeper about the direction the country is going in.
“I think it says a lot about the country and what our priorities are. And its priorities are a healthy population, and that’s one of the best investments the country can make,” said Shalala.

Another winter storm moved through the area. Richmond only got a couple inches of snow before it changed over to freezing rain during the night. Once I could actually hear the precipitation, especially the little pings of ice, I knew the snow was not for long. It's pretty slushy outside on softer surfaces. The streets and walkways seem to just be wet, which isn't a bad thing (as opposed to icy). The dormant plants and trees look rather lovely, in their crystalline sheaths (which at this point don't seem to be doing damage). It's cold out there though...or at least it feels really cold owing to the moisture in the air and zero sunshine. It's a good day to stay inside (mostly)...and I took the opportunity to stay in my robe a bit longer this morning, sitting by the fire and sipping my tea.
In other news (or...something), there's been a challenge (I think that's what it's being called) on FB, for people showing how their profile pics have changed from when first on the site. I felt like the most current photo of me, from August of last year, wasn't quite honest enough...so I made one today. I've decided I look like a 60 year old and that's quite all right. What a blessing to be 60 and have the good fortune to experience life!

Replacing a lost car registration in Massachusetts is simple, as the State Registration of Motor Vehicles (RMV) accepts requests for duplicate credentials online, in person or by telephone. To order a copy of vehicle registration credentials online, applicants may complete the process as an individual automobile owner or as the employee of a company. In most cases, individual customers must provide a name, birth date and driver’s license number when submitting their request, while employees must provide the license plate number of the registered vehicle.
To replace car registration cards in person or by telephone, the application process is slightly different, as applicants will need to speak with an RMV customer service representative rather than completing the process electronically. Additionally, the process of replacing the registration credentials of a leased vehicle is slightly different. To learn more about replacing a lost registration credential, review the information below.
When do you need to get a copy of your vehicle registration in Massachusetts?
Motorists must replace a Massachusetts DMV lost registration card as soon as possible after the original credential is stolen from them, damaged, or goes missing, as this document serves as proof of a vehicle’s valid registration period. Without current registration credentials, motorists cannot legally operate their motor vehicles on public roadways.
Moreover, drivers must replace vehicle registration credentials as soon as possible, as failure to present these documents when pulled over by a police officer is punishable under state law. As stated in Section 11 under Chapter 90 of the General Laws, drivers must submit proof of their vehicle’s registration credentials whenever a police officer pulls them over, as failure to do so results in a $35 penalty fee after the first offense.
If drivers cannot present their registration credentials when pulled over by a police officer, they may provide the name and address of the vehicle owner. If they fail to comply with this requirement, they may face a $100 fine and criminal charges (Section 25 of Chapter 90).
To obtain an RMV copy of registration in MA, motorists may submit a request online, in person or by telephone, depending on their preferred method. After submitting their request, drivers receive their replacement credentials within 10 days, unless they apply in person.
If replacing the registration credentials of a leased vehicle, however, the leasing company (lessor) will receive the duplicate materials from the RMV, unless the lessee applies for a replacement card in person at a local Service Center. Learn more about these replacement methods in the following sections.
The online Massachusetts DMV registration replacement process is simple, as motorists may submit a request directly through the RMV’s website, as long as their addresses are current in the Registry’s database. If motorists need to change their addresses through the RMV, they must do so before they apply for a duplicate registration card online.
Visit the Duplicate Registration portal under the RMV’s website.
Apply as an individual customer or a company.
Provide their vehicle registration number, driver’s license, FID, or identification card number, and their email address if they wish to order a duplicate credential as an individual.
Provide their license plate type, number and a security code if they wish to obtain a duplicate credential for a company vehicle.
Provide payment for the applicable replacement fee.
After completing an online DMV duplicate registration application, motorists may print their credentials on their own, or the RMV will mail their new materials to them within seven- to- 10 days.
To get a replacement vehicle registration in MA, customers may choose to submit their request in person at an RMV Service Center or a participating branch of the American Automobile Association (AAA) if they are members of the organization. However, motorists must visit the RMV or AAA during the office’s regular business hours. While not all AAA offices offer RMV services, motorists may contact their local branch before heading in to determine whether these services are available.
When requesting a duplicate credential in person through the RMV or AAA, customers must provide the representative with their vehicle ownership information and registration number. Additionally, motorists must provide payment for the applicable fee.
For all other Massachusetts area codes, customers may call 800-858-3926.
When ordering a replacement credential, customers must provide their vehicle’s registration number and their driver’s license, FID or identification card number. During this time, motorists must also provide payment for the applicable replacement fee. After submitting the request, motorists will receive their new registration materials in the mail within five to seven days.
If lost car registration papers in MA have been stolen, or if motorists have reason to believe that another driver stole their registration materials, they may choose to file a police report. While doing so is not mandatory under state law, claimants will protect their identity if they file a report with their local police department and keep a record of the report for their personal records.
While there is no DMV replacement sticker fee in MA, motorists must visit a local RMV Service Center to request a duplicate decal in person. To do so, however, drivers must submit proof of a current vehicle registration card. If applicants lose their registration card, they must pay a fee to obtain a duplicate certificate of registration as well. Additionally, drivers may obtain a replacement decal in person if they did not receive a sticker after applying for a registration card.
Note: In addition to the DMV lost registration sticker and/or certificate, motorists must apply for a duplicate license plate if they lose or damage their original materials.
$25 for each replacement registration card.
$0 to order a replacement decal.
If obtaining a replacement credential in person, customers may submit payment in the form of a check, money order, cash and credit or debit card. Motorists must make checks out to MassDOT.
If ordering a duplicate credential by internet or telephone, however, customers must pay with an American Express, VISA, MasterCard or Discover credit card.

An oil field worker in Alberta.
The Harper government picked up key support from France and the Netherlands in blocking a proposed European Union fuels directive that would target the oil sands as a particularly emissions-intensive source of crude.
A vote in Brussels on Thursday gave the Canadian government a winin its battle to preserve international markets for oil sands producers against an environmental lobbying effort, which wants refiners worldwide to pay financial penalties for using the carbon-intensive Alberta crude as well as other sources of "dirty" fuel.
Ottawa has been lobbying the Europeans for two years for fundamental changes to an EU proposal to label oil sands as being more carbon-intensive than other crude sources – a tag that would effectively ban oil sands crude, and threaten to snowball to other regions. Britain had clearly indicated it was in Canada's camp, but on Thursday, France and the Netherlands helped derail the proposed regulation by abstaining on the vote, which needed a majority of total votes to pass.
All three countries are home to international oil companies – Britain's BP PLC, Royal Dutch Shell PLC of the Netherlands, and France's Total SA – that are expanding operations in the oil sands. The European firms have faced shareholder resolutions urging them to pull out.
With the stalemate at the EU technical committee, European ministers will have to decide on the fate on the fuel-quality directive in June, and Alberta Premier Alison Redford and federal Natural Resources Minister Joe Oliver said they will keep up the lobbying pressure to defeat the current regulations.
The Brussels vote was the latest in a series of setbacks in Europe and North America for proponents of low-carbon fuel regulations that are aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the transportation sector.
Backed by the oil industry, the federal and Alberta governments have lobbied aggressively on both continents to derail regulatory efforts that would establish financial disincentives to discourage refiners and marketers from using fuel derived from oil sands bitumen in favour of lower-carbon sources of fuel.
In California, where the low-carbon fuel standard was a pioneer, the local industry won a federal court decision in December that ruled the regulation is unconstitutional. The court issued an injunction blocking the regulations' implementation while the state appeals the lower court ruling.
Other states that were considering following California's lead have slowed implementation and, in some cases, indicated they don't intend to proceed.
In Brussels on Thursday, a European Union committee hit a stalemate in deliberations whether to proceed with the fuel-quality directive, forcing a committee of national ministers to take up the matter in the coming months.
Mr. Oliver – who has lobbied European counterparts on the fuel directive – said the government does not want the oil sands to be "stigmatized" internationally, which could affect the willingness of other countries to purchase the crude.
"We just don't want that kind of stigmatizing judgment to be made against our oil sands without any scientific basis," Mr. Oliver said.
The failure to pass the regulation on Thursday was "good news," the minister said.
"But we don't take anything for granted going to the next step. It's a pretty convoluted process that they have there and so we have to keep sending the message out."
Premier Redford said the province could also keep up its lobbying effort, saying her government does not oppose an EU fuel-quality directive so long as it treats Alberta oil fairly. She said her government – along with Ottawa – has to persuade customers that the province is taking a balanced approach to oil sands development.
"We will continue to strive to excel at environmental stewardship while balancing economic development,' she said.
Dan Woynillowicz, a spokesman for the Pembina Institute, a Calgary-based environmental lobby group, said the game is not over in Europe, since politicians there are sensitive to environmental considerations and committed to reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
Mr. Woynillowicz agreed, however, that the EU standard could be improved and made fairer to oil sands producers by setting emission standards for a broader slate of crude sources, including heavy oil that is closer to bitumen in its emissions profile.
He acknowledged that governments in North America have cooled in their support for climate policies like the low carbon fuel standard, given the economic challenges of the recession. But he said that pressure will arise again, as the impacts of global warming become clear.
"It would be short-sighted for oil sands producers to feel that they shouldn't be preparing for that evolution in the U.S. marketplace," he said.

So I was looking back over my posts, and I realized I haven’t updated you guys in awhile. Holidays are always hard for me. As a reforming foodie, I always seem to pack on the pounds this time of year. Unfortunately, I didn’t keep up my losing trend, but victory in that I didn’t gain!
And what post would be complete without a recipe.
Soak your beans overnight! Cuts down on cooking time. Throw all ingredients into a crockpot, cover with water, let simmer on low for 8 hours. Serve hot and enjoy!
Unfortunately, most holidays tend to be the ‘undoing’ of so many diets. If you have a tendency to put on weight it must be very hard. And in the US, you go straight from Thanksgiving into the Christmas period – which gives you little time to lose a few pounds before the Christmas fayre is tempting you! January diets are notoriously punishing – but probably necssary.
Yep, exactly why I’m at least satisfied not gaining.
Man, that looks like a job! I sure wouldn’t want to do that seaervl times a day Love your new site by the way, and it’s great to be able to leave a comment.

Weird! You may have heard the theory of shopping for groceries with a basket, rather than a full-size shopping cart, as a trick to limit spending, especially on impulse purchases. Logically, this makes sense: With less space to carry groceries, there’d seem to be less chance for making bad decisions. But a new study shows that shoppers gathering groceries in baskets are more likely to make unhealthy, wasteful purchases.
We demonstrate that arm flexor contraction makes individuals more likely to choose immediately pleasing options.
That’s another way of saying “instant gratification.” The tension and strain on the arm (and presumably, back and shoulders as well) makes shoppers more likely to pick up “vice products” such as candy and soda, apparently as some sort of unconscious counterbalance to the hassles of carrying a shopping basket. When pushing a shopping cart on wheels, there is no “arm flexor contraction” necessary.
The odds of purchasing vice products at the cashier for a basket shopper is 6.84 times the odds of purchasing vices for a cart shopper, all other things being equal.
Wow. Those baskets seem to bring out the worst in people. But, generally speaking, aren’t the people shopping with baskets just plain different than those shopping with carts? Think about it. The individual shopping with a cart is probably not an amateur randomly looking for something to fill his belly. If you’ve grabbed a cart, you’re probably shopping for more than yourself. You probably have a list. You probably don’t want to have to visit the store more than once a week. You’re probably careful about what goes into the cart. The basket shopper, on the other hand, would seem to be more likely to be going to the store for one or two specific things—but who, when tempted or bored, might mindlessly toss a few other items into the basket.
In other words: Blame the shopper, not the shopping basket.
Yet, another study conducted by the researchers indicates that shopping basket shoppers—specifically the “arm flexion” involved in holding a shopping basket—tends to result in people choosing vice over virtue at the grocery store. In the experiment, participants were given a shopping list in which they had a choice of snacks—some healthy (apple, orange), some not to healthy (Twix, Mars bar).
You know where this is going: The shoppers holding baskets were more likely than the shopping cart shoppers to pick the candy bars over the fruit. And why is this so? Researchers say that uncomfortable body sensations, such as the strain of holding a shopping basket, induce a “present-biased preference.” For grocery shoppers, that means wanting chocolate asap. At least you shouldn’t have room in the basket for too many of them.

We present a simple method for rendering directly from compressed textures in hardware and software rendering systems. Textures are compressed using a vector quantization (VQ) method. The advantage of VQ over other compression techniques is that textures can be decompressed quickly during rendering. The drawback of using lossy compression schemes such as VQ for textures is that such methods introduce errors into the textures. We discuss techniques for controlling these losses. We also describe an extension to the basic VQ technique for compressing mipmaps. We have observed compression rates of up to 35:1, with minimal loss in visual quality and a small impact on rendering time. The simplicity of our technique lends itself to an efficient hardware implementation.
According to University policy, we have disclosed documentation of this invention to the Office of Technology Licensing, who have filed for a patent. For further information, contact John Sandelin (email: [email protected]) at the Office of Technology Licensing.

Field researchers with the Samuel Proctor Oral History Program communicate in a variety of arenas, including writing theses and dissertations, presenting at national conferences, and working with community organizations on emerging research.
OHA: In October 2018, several current and past SPOHPers traveled to Montreal, Quebec, Canada, to present at the 52nd Annual Meeting of the Oral History Association. The presentations highlighted several SPOHP collections, including the Women’s March on Washington Archive, Florida Queer History Project, and a Black and Latinx History of the Gator Nation. Current SPOHP faculty and staff, as well as SPOHP alumni presenters included: Robert Baez, Juliette Barbera, Patrick Daglaris, Juanita Duque, Holland Hall, Johanna Mellis, Aliya Miranda, Ryan Morini, Paul Ortiz, Raja Rahim, and Elisabeth Rios-Brooks.
Students and staff from Samuel Proctor Oral History Program presented at the upcoming Oral History Association conference in Tampa, Florida, where Dr. Ortíz served as the OHA President.
During the evening on Thursday, the UF College of the Arts’ School of Theatre and Dance and SPOHP hosted an encore performance of “Gator Tales” at the TECO Hall at the Tampa Bay History Center. “Gator Tales,” a dramatic oral history performance devised and directed by Kevin Marshall, drew from SPOHP’s Alachua County African American History Project to tell the stories of the first students to integrate the university. The performance was made possible by the Florida Humanities Council, and was free and open to the public.
college and university students to move beyond the interview. Dr. Conlin is an assistant professor of history at the Indiana University of Pennsylvania. Poarch Creek Project coordinator Diana Dombrowski presented on the “Teaching and Connecting Through Native American History” panel.
Awards presented by the OHA recognize outstanding achievement in oral history collection and education, and SPOHP’s Mississippi Freedom Project, a growing archive of interviews with civil rights movement veterans and notable residents of the Mississippi Delta, was be honored this year with the Elizabeth B. Mason Small Project Award during the meeting showcase on Saturday, Oct. 17. Coordinator Sarah Blanc and project staff Diana Dombrowski accepted the award.
SPOHP also sponsored the Saturday plenary session, “Documenting Ferguson: Oral History, Virtual Technologies and the Making of a Movement,” with Makiba Foster of the Documenting Ferguson project at Washington University, and Professor Donna Murch of Rutgers University, author of Living for the City, and SPOHP alumni and Dream Defender Nailah Summers. The session will explore issues of historical recovery posed by the mass protests against state-sanctioned violence after the shooting of Michael Brown last August.
On Sunday, Oct. 18, graduate coordinators of SPOHP’s Alachua County African American History Project, Dr. Ryan Morini, Randi Gill-Sadler, Justin Dunnavant, and Anthony Donaldson, presented on the roundtable, “#NoLaughingMatter: Disrupting Racial Oppression in the New South.” The project has amassed a collection of over 400 interviews with Blacks in Florida and the greater South, and the panel discussed Jim Crow oppression, segregation, and the struggle for social change.
Also on Sunday, project coordinators across SPOHP presented at the “Standing with Elders: Fieldwork in the South,” including Diana Dombrowski with the Poarch Creek Project, Jessica Taylor with the Appalachian Social Change Project, Sarah Blanc with Mississippi Freedom Project, and Patrick Daglaris, with the Virginia Tidewater Main Street Project. The panel highlighted recent fieldwork initiatives and discussed resulting student work, examining academic legacies of earlier oral history work and solidifying contemporary networks for advancing scholarship.

Teaching for Change is organizing teacher fellowship program on Mississippi history with a focus on the civil rights movement and labor for July 2015. Mississippi Freedom Project (MFP) Coordinator Sarah Blanc and staff Diana Dombrowski will present on the collection’s resources and topics, and “I Never Will Forget,” (PDF) the edited of volume of oral history interviews released by SPOHP last year.
The institute is designed to build a sustainable statewide learning community of classroom language arts, social studies, and history teachers in grades 6–12 for teaching hands-on, inquiry-based U.S. history through the lens of race and class in Mississippi history. The W.K. Kellogg Foundation is providing funding with guidance from partners including historians, activists, museum staff, and educators.

The Latin American Jewish Studies Association (LAJSA) XVII International Research Conference, to be held at Florida International University (Biscayne Bay Campus) in Miami, June 21-23, 2015, will bring together scholars from a variety of disciplines and geographical regions whose work focuses on the lives, experiences, cultural production, and representations of Jews in/from Latin America.
LDAP Coordinator Génesis Lara will present with Dr. Rebecca Jefferson of the University of Florida Isser and Rae Price Library of Judaica and Paul Losch of the Latin American and Carribean Collection about oral histories from the Jewish community in El Salvador.
As secondary education in Latino Studies for Palm Beach County Schools, the 2015 Hispanic-Latino Institute will be held at John I. Leonard High School this summer. Discussions will focus on topics including Latino portrayals in the media, legal and educational issues concerning Latino students and parents, bilingual development and parental engagement for Latino students, and more. LDAP Coordinator Génesis Lara will discuss the Latin American Diaspora in the U.S.
The biennial Alcohol and Drug History Society conference, convening this year at Bowling Green State University in Ohio, showcases research from university faculty, independent scholars, and graduate students.
This year, UF PhD student and SPOHP Graduate Coordinator Kyle Bridge will present his latest project, “(Insert Addiction Here): Twelve-Step Recovery and the Advent of the Addictive Personality.” Kyle’s paper finds that the idea of the “addictive personality,” defined as a supposed condition which afflicts people with a predisposition to addictive behavior from taking drugs to exercise, emerged in addict folklore by the late 1980s due to the rise of innate personality as a causal explanation for human behavior, the proliferation of twelve-step addiction recovery groups, and the gradual creation of an inter-addiction recovery culture featuring a dynamic movement of people and ideas. The project uses several oral histories of addicts, some of which are archived in the SPOHP Alcohol and Drug History Collection.
In October 2014, SPOHP students and staff from the Samuel Proctor Oral History Program presented at the annual OHA meeting in Madison, Wisconsin, where Dr. Ortíz served as the OHA Vice President.
Latina/o Diaspora in the Americas Project (LDAP) Coordinator Génesis Lara presented using her thesis work for SPOHP’s panel, “Un-silencing Hispaniola’s Histories: Precedents and Possibilities.” She also presented on a second panel, “From Oral History to Community Action: Latino Youth Building Community and Transforming Social Discourses and Institutions,” on SPOHP’s Nuestras Historias collection, which features interviews with students, alumni and faculty from the University of Florida’s Hispanic-Latino community, and highlights the Institute of Hispanic-Latino Culture, which celebrated its 20th anniversary last year.
Diana Dombrowski presented with SPOHP alumni Dr. Erin Conlin and Sarah McNamara on the panel, “Recording Voices and Empowering Communities: Oral History, Community, Engagement, and Social Justice,” discussing oral history research related to social justice organizing. Dombrowski examined three original SPOHP projects supported by students and volunteers to show how oral history projects can shape undergraduates and the communities they interview.
Graduate Coordinator Jessica Taylor and SPOHP alumni Chelsea Carnes presented, “Suffering in Silence: Counteracting Myths of Passivity through Narratives of Resistance,” using interviews with black men and women to discuss the limitations of violence enacted symbolically in white spaces with Graduate Coordinator Matthew Simmons, who utilized oral histories gathered from the farmworker community in Apopka, Florida. Mississippi Freedom Project (MFP) Coordinator Sarah Blanc presented on the panel, “The Civil Rights Act and Freedom Summer at 50: New Evidence, New Interpretations,” highlighting the SPOHP collection and research trip, with scholars from the historical offices of the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives.
Dr. Paul Ortíz spoke on “Oral Histories and Historical Memories of the Panama Canal Zone,” referencing SPOHP’s Panama Canal Zone oral history collection, at the UF Center for Latin American Studies’ 63rd Annual Conference. The PCM collection features 50+ oral histories with former Zonians. SPOHP developed the collection working in cooperation with the Panama Canal Museum, George A. Smathers Libraries, and UF’s Center for Latin American Studies.
The UF Center for Latin American Studies marked the 100th anniversary of the opening of the Panama Canal. Highlighting UF’s contributions and connections to Panama, the conference featured more than 30 expert presentations on Panama from diverse perspectives, including paleontology, geology, forest conservation, finance, tourism, politics, Afro-Panamanian heritage, indigenous peoples, and popular culture.
The poster session detailed a collaborative digitization project at the University of Florida that coincided with an important historical anniversary, the 50th anniversary of the national civil rights movement campaign called Freedom Summer. Freedom Summer was a highly publicized campaign which brought approximately 1,000 young college students and other activists from other parts of the USA to the state of Mississippi, to register blacks to vote despite a history of violence and intimidation by authorities. SPOHP holds over 100 recorded interviews with civil rights movement veterans in their archives about this turbulent period of unrest.
The collection includes interviews with such well-known figures as Lawrence Guyot, Director of the Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party in 1964, and Liz Fusco, who served as the Mississippi Statewide Coordinator of Freedom Schools. Other oral histories contain reflections on the interviewees’ work with organizers such as Fannie Lou Hamer, and Stokely Carmichael, as well as organizations such as CORE, SNCC and the SCLC. The project also includes interviews with activist Rosa Parks, concerning the Montgomery Bus boycott of 1955 and other events leading up to 1964.
Dr. Paul Ortíz presented on the panel, “Public Universities and the Need to Rethink Public History,” with co-panelists from other public universities. He discussed public history initiatives at SPOHP and UF, emphasizing successful strategies to get funding and expand public history programs, including sending students into local communities, emphasizing hard skills, and actively advocating for resources.
The American Historical Association is the oldest and largest society of historians and professors of history in the United States. It was established to promote historical studies, the teaching of history, and preservation of and access to historical materials in 1884.
See the AHA 2014 conference program details.
Dr. Ortíz’s presentation was featured in the Cutting Edge News article, “How to Get Funding for Public History,” in January 2014.
SPOHP students and staff presented on the panel, “Lessons from the Delta: Oral History, Heritage, and Civil Rights” at the 2013 OHA conference in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. The panel was chaired by Dr. Paul Ortíz.
SPOHP Graduate Coordinator Jessica Taylor spoke on “(In)tangible Heritage and the civil rights movement in Mississippi,” and African American History Project (AAHP) Coordinator Justin Dunnavant spoke on “Veterans of SNCC: The Painful Memories of the War for Equality.” Joanna Joseph, a University Scholar, spoke “Experiencing Oral History: Student Reflections from the Delta.” SPOHP received the Stetson Kennedy Vox Populi “Voice of the People” Award at the conference, and MFP research partner Falana McDaniels was awarded the Martha Ross Teaching Award.
Read more about SPOHP’s Vox Populi award.
Graduate coordinators from the African American History Project presented at the 98th annual conference of the Association for the Study of African American Life and History in Jacksonville, Florida. The panel, entitled “Teach Them How to Sing: Harry T. Moore and Patricia Due, Florida’s Activist Educators” featured presentations from attorney John Due and AAHP graduate coordinators Ryan Morini and Justin Dunnavant. Dr. Paul Ortíz moderated the panel.
Morini presented on oral history methodology, describing the history of AAHP and sharing clips of interviews with former Lincoln High School students and educators to highlight black high school alumni associations and the politics of memory and nostalgia. Dunnavant presented on the significance of educator activists in Florida’s civil rights era, using the life of Harry and Harriette Moore to explore the role activist educators played in desegregating and gathering resources for black schools. Morini earned his Ph.D in Anthropology from the University of Florida in 2014, and Dunnavant is a Ford Foundation Predoctoral fellow and Ph.D candidate studying archaeology. Concluding the panel, attorney and civil rights movement veteran John Due reflected upon the activist legacy of his wife, Patricia Stephens Due, in connection with contemporary organizing strategies.

Lillian Deakins, fifth from the left, in 1946 playing cards with friends who remained close for decades. From left, Eleanor Bockmann, Sudie Hanger, Dot Addison, Dorothy Yates, Lillian Deakins, Emily Hightower.
Once committed to a friendship, a community or a cause, Lillian Deakins was all in.
The first cousin of author Margaret Mitchell, Deakins had friendships that lasted a lifetime, called Ansley Park home for 90-plus years and was a dedicated volunteer in the “genteel era” of the city she loved.
Lillian Roberts Deakins, a fifth-generation Atlantan who lived nearly all her 97 years in intown’s affluent Ansley Park, died Jan. 9.
A memorial service will be held at 2 p.m. Jan. 20 at H.M. Patterson & Sons, Spring Hill. The family will receive guests at 1 p.m., and a reception will follow the service.
She attended Spring Street School, Washington Seminary, Sweet Briar College and Agnes Scott College.
Deakins went to work at Eastern Airlines after graduating from Agnes Scott in 1943 with degrees in economics and sociology.
At Eastern, she worked briefly as a flight instructor but was reassigned after sending a trainee in a flight simulator into a tailspin. She also had the unenviable duty of notifying civilians they were being bumped from their flights to make room for World War II servicemen, her daughters said.
During World War II, Deakins was asked to attend parties – on par with the morale-boosting canteens made famous by Hollywood – where servicemen had opportunities for entertainment and fellowship.
At one of those belle-of-the-ball parties, she met soldier David Miller Deakins and a courtship began. The two married in 1945 and were together until his death in 1989.
“She was a character,” Clarke said.
Lillian Deakins had a great sense of humor and had an abundance of friends.
Deakins was a lifelong member of Atlanta First United Methodist church and active in volunteer efforts across the community.
She was a member of the board of the Junior League of Atlanta, president of the Salvation Army Ladies Auxiliary and trustee of both the Historic Oakland Foundation and the Margaret Mitchell House. She also was a member of the Piedmont Driving Club and the Ansley Golf Club.
For 72 years, she and a group of friends met one Friday a month for lunch. The group’s membership declined with the years, but Deakins still attended as long as she was able.
“Her legacy, much more than anything else, is her love for people and her interest in all different types of people,” daughter Lillian said.
When a friend was ill or had lost a loved one, Deakins was the first at the friend’s door with food or words of comfort.
Mary Frances Woodside and Deakins met in seventh grade, went through high school together, and remained close friends.
Deakins and husband David lived for about a year in Englewood, Calif., where she was in the Junior League with actress Shirley Temple, her family said.
In 1959, the couple moved into a two-story home in the Prado in Ansley Park that had an elevator, a must-have for David Deakins.
Lillian Deakins, who survived two other husbands, lived there until her death.
Deakins is survived by her daughters, Lillian Deakins Clarke and Dorothy Deakins Chandler; son-in-law Franklin Chandler; and several grandchildren.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to: the Historic Oakland Foundation, 248 Oakland Avenue SE, Atlanta, GA 30312; CASA Glynn, PO Box 145, Brunswick, GA 31521; or Midtown Assistance Center, 30 Porter Place, Atlanta, GA 30308.

"The impact of modulation; modeling first and second pillar CAP policies "
This paper aims to provide a quantitative and qualitative assessment of the impacts of this transfer of funds from Pillar One to Pillar Two of the CAP through the use of the compulsory modulation mechanisms on the social and economic performance of the agriculture sector and rural areas. More specifically, it studies the impact on the environment, the competitiveness of the agriculture sector, on rural communities and national rural development budgets. The study also considers the re-distribution effects of modulation, within and between Member States, between economic sectors and types of holdings. This study is innovative as it is the first that models explicitly the various measures (all three axis) of the second pillar of the CAP in a quantitative way.
Results are still only very limited in the paper as they are not declassified yet.

Ethics, Philosophy and Religion | Thoughts worth thinking.
Perhaps it’s just me that deceives myself into thinking that I know myself well enough to be able to predict what I will do, how I will react or what I will think in any situation. The truth is, I learn things about myself all the time; I don’t have a fully formed philosophy and sometimes it is difficult to be at peace with this, to be at peace with things I’ve done in the past that conflict with who I am now or even who I want to be.
At some point in everyone’s life we realise we’re not the same people as our parents – we don’t share the same opinions, we don’t vote for the same politicians, we don’t have the same philosophies. This is fine, we’re all different people and this is something that should be embraced. I’ve known this for a long while but taking the next step and really taking control of my own life is something that I still struggle with. It is far easier said than done to take a step back from other people’s opinions and become the person that you want to be, to live the life you want to live. I am, by no means, there on this one.
So how does one cope with the internal conflicts of living a life that’s different to what’s expected by friends, family, social constructs and even oneself? Well I wish I knew a quick fix for that one, but the reality is that I don’t have an answer. For me, now, I try my very best to discover myself and to take those steps to realising what’s important to me. This does involve a lot of thinking, which is inconvenient at best but I’m getting there. As for the feelings of regret and apprehension about the past and future, I try to focus on my faith, but this is far easier said than done.
Who am I? I don’t know. But I am doing everything I can to find out.
The idea of ‘living in the moment’ isn’t an uncommon philosophy in today’s culture. It’s very closely linked to the ‘YOLO’ (You Only Live Once) movement that flooded the Twitter-feeds of millions of users over the past couple of years. People around the world became hooked on the idea that you could justify outrageous decisions with the notion that when life draws to a close you won’t have the opportunity to make that decision again. I don’t dispute that this seems perfectly accurate, you do only get one life on this Earth and when it’s over, there’s nothing you can do to change what’s happened, but it would be short-sighted, I think, to simply follow all your impulses and instincts for this reason.
The simple fact is, you may only live once but that life doesn’t end after each decision you make. There are consequences to your actions and consistently following your raw desires just isn’t healthy. For example, there are countless websites and companies out there who are willing to offer you loans of up to £1000 as an instant bank transfer. There’s a lot that you could do with this money, things you’ve wanted for years that this money could get you and you could just live in the moment and get yourself that new TV/Hi-fi system/massaging chair or whatever you dream of. But the pressure of the debt will catch up with you and you could lose it all in a second.
So whilst YOLO makes for a great slogan, like many catchy acronyms it really holds very little meaning with regard to making life decisions; the truth of the matter is far more complicated – you have a future to be concerned about, not just the next few hours and your decisions should reflect that or you can lose things, and people, that you love.
Live your life, not your hour.

The nursing department has gone from a space where cockroaches roamed their labs to a fully-renovated bug-free building.
The new Health and Science building – formerly the federal Frear Building – has opened for use this spring.
Although the building was opened to nursing students a month ago, many technology problems continue to be worked out. For example, some classrooms and offices do not have consistent Internet access.
Some of the students said they didn’t like that the building wasn’t ready to go.
The building, at 300 S. New St., is less than a mile from Wesley’s main campus.
Although the building has had some problems during its first month, many students and faculty believe the new building is a great boost for the nursing department.
Prior to being in the Health and Science building, the nursing department was in the basement of College Center, under Dulany Hall.
In the old building, the nursing department simulation labs were closets. The department now has four classrooms, a meeting room, a conference room and simulation labs.
“The larger building allows for a larger simulation lab so our students can practice real life situations in a controlled setting,” said Dr. Karen Panunto.
The new simulation labs resemble hospital rooms with several beds and mannequin-like SIM men that can breathe, have a heartbeat and act like people.
While in College Center, the nursing classes were split up based on what year they were in the nursing major (freshman, sophomore, junior or senior). Now, all of the students are in classes together.
“I like working with all of the nursing students as a whole, rather than being split up,” said sophomore Frank Fiorella.
The building was free and renovations were paid for through grants and donations. The school, however, pays for yearly maintenance, which costs about $150,000.
The Health and Human Services gave the department their furniture and lab equipment.

Maybe I should start the story by showing the nice stone wall in the room behind the kitchen, which is the reason for all this dust and work for a week… and that wasn’t planned at all.
Then they started fixing… tiling and filling holes in walls.
The cement line is still in the kitchen, but just this morning Danie discovered a whole pile of the kitchen tiles in his outside building. Cement line fixed!

I'm on PC the icon is NSIS or some acronym.

Petr Cech has been the preferred choice for the Cup and European competitions this term ever since Bernd Leno took up the league duties. The veteran is set to feature in goal against Carlo Ancelotti's side.
In the defence, Sokratis should return to the mix after missing the weekend league game through domestic suspension. He should partner Laurent Koscielny and Nacho Monreal in a three-man backline.
Similarly, Ainsley Maitland-Niles and Sead Kolasinac are set to return in the right and left wing-back positions, but the latter may need to show more responsibility in the defensive scale with Napoli likely to attack from the off.
In the midfield, Lucas Torreira is very much certain to start and we are fancying him to partner Granit Xhaka, who made his injury comeback during the hard-fought away win at Watford.
In the attack front, Aaron Ramsey is likely to slot into the number 10 role and we are anticipating a two-striker partnership of Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang ahead of the Welshman.

An entry-level bike like the Giant Iguana shouldn’t be so surprisingly unlucky in terms of marketing. And it is not a surprise because it is incredibly affordable for its quality, but because it can offer an outstanding performance despite its low-range construction.
Taking a ride with the Giant Iguana is enjoying a smooth, comfortable, and fascinating trip – especially if you know how to get the best from it. And of course, it doesn’t lack anything in quality, as it will not only help you have the most fun in a single ride, it will also allow you to do it for years.
Nonetheless, the Giant Iguana is a bike that got a lot of appraisals, but also a few gripes about some of its features. Take a look to find out more!
Any biker who knows what a hard-tail does will feel like the Iguana is more than a simple mountain bike. For a bike that is in the entry-level range of mountain bikes, it is incredibly strong.
The build was thought out to provide exactly that – a super strong performance that every biker who wants to go hard with it could enjoy. You simply won’t experience any drawback while using it, whether it is on the road or in the rockiest, bumpiest, or hardest of paths.
And even more so if you an expert who can get the most out of it. The more you know about bikes, the more you will feel like the Giant Iguana is an outstanding performance. It is a bike full of reliability, strength, and overall technique.
One of the things that makes the Giant Iguana stand out from the crow is its ability to go on any path without problems. But it doesn’t mean that it offers the most robust and most reliable builds, it also says that going anywhere with it is the most comfortable &smooth ride you will have.
If it is a high steep, you will ride it like a champ; if it is a parallel descent, you will glide like an animal. And of course, its solid gearing and the pedaling system just makes it even more exciting to use.
Especially when we talk about the 9-speed Shimano RapidFire SL drivetrain and the rest of the components, you can clearly see for what purpose this bicycle was made. Whether it is technical, harsh, or extreme use – the Giant Iguana will provide you top-notch performance.
Even more than being just a strong unit, the Giant Iguana is also really long-lasting. From the frame to the brakes, shifters, and even the tires – the Iguana is a durable companion that will take you anywhere without problems.
For a mountain bike so affordable, the riding experience of the Iguana is merely outstanding. Outstanding because it is not only one of the smoothest on the road and trail, but also one of the faster bikes you can get.
With the proper shifting and position, using the Giant Iguana to go at high speed is a total blast. Even on trails, the speed of the Iguana will surprise any expert, as its low-range build seems like offering much more than that.
Weighing around 35lbs depending on the components, the bike seems a little heavier than most. However, when it comes to mountaineering, it is almost a perfect weight.
Mountain bikes need to be strong and thus heavier than other types of bikes. And that’s translated immediately into less speed and a little less maneuvering. The Giant Iguana has all of that.
It is not as heavy as the strongest bikes out there, but it isn’t as hard to use either. It is almost a perfect bike at a low price range that you can get if you love off-road trails.
A common complaint about the Giant Iguana was the form of its seat. It is maybe the only part of the bicycle that most people felt like changing before hurting their butts.
And it wasn’t because the saddle was too large or too small, it was because its shape was one of the worst ever made. The WTB Speed, especially for a mountain bike, was undoubtedly not suited for the Giant Iguana. And that was apparently sensed by most users.
Another usual complaint most users had with the Iguana was the form and size of its tires. The Kenda Blue Groove on the front and the Kenda Nevagal on the rear were not the favorite tires for enthusiasts of off-road trails.
The tires were fine if you were going to do casual riding or recreational off-road. But if you were going to do some harsh and extreme riding with it, very likely the tires would make you feel entirely off.
It all comes down to the shape and the 26-inches height. Not enough for a mountain bike of this quality.
Is the Giant Iguana a Bike for Hard Off-Road Use?
Bikes that are affordable like the Giant Iguana are not usually the best bikes for harsh trailing in the mountains. This bicycle, however, is the perfect choice for anyone who wants to go hard-trailing but doesn’t have the money for a high-range option.
Why? Simply because the Giant Iguana is one of the most responsive, smoothest, fastest, most reliable, strongest, and better-built bikes ever made. Especially for its fantastic price, the bike will get you farther than any other – and that's saying a lot!
Despite a few drawbacks, the bike is still one of the best, not only for its price but for its excellent quality overall. If you are a mountain lover who likes to go riding some bikes from time to time – then you will find the Giant Iguana a perfect choice.

I read an article on the Internet that said Canola oil contains toxins that are harmful to humans. Is this true?
First off, the inclusion of phrases like “on the Internet” is meant to discredit the idea before it’s even mentioned and note that Mayo Clinic article itself is “on the Internet”. The phrase “toxins that are harmful to humans” is also suspect. Does that mean it has toxins but they claim they aren’t harmful to us? Does that mean it wasn’t good for the rats but they think this is one the time our anatomies are not analogous? Regardless, they’re trying to make it wordy. The best way to phrase the question would be: “Does Canola oil really contain toxins?”. They use that question as the title, so they should have left it at that. They should also cite the sources of the rumor and confront them explicitly.
The post then goes on to deny this (big surprise) without supporting its claims. Ms. Zeratsky takes out the straw man of erucic acid but neglects to mention the real problem people have with Canola oil. The problem with Canola oil is not directly related to its contents: it’s the problem of rancidity. If it’s highly prone to go rancid and consuming rancid oils is harmful to your health, then Canola oil is not a healthier option, especially for cooking (but isn’t that all you do with it because it doesn’t taste good enough to garnish/drizzle with?).
I know Canola is a brand name that people invested in it want to protect, but in a free market economy if your product isn’t good, your business fails. We’ve chosen in this country to operate that way, to allow competition and uncertainty to drive us after quality. We really need to stop protecting bad ideas and unhealthy food. Even if it is logistically difficult to abandon them, it will be worth it to us in the long run.

Scribal Terror: Ethiopian "Christ in Majesty"
ha ha! jesus is giving "the shocker"!
I love that one in the middle.
Heh. Just occured to me that the Coptic one looks a lot like Manga.
Thank you. I love to see more context than my sometimes casual wash over the subject. That was the worst post *ever* to get together (to do with things like extraction/upload, not content) and although I was fascinated by the iconographic elements, it was more than my little head could contemplate in the end to have tried at all to work it out. So I'm grateful for this, cheers.
I'm grateful for all the work you do finding these wonderful resources, Peacay! You're a treasure.

Once you have finished writing your M.A. thesis, you must also undergo a one-hour oral defense. The purpose of the oral defense is to demonstrate that you have mastered the material enough to answer orally questions about it, without knowing in advance what those questions will be. All the members of your committee will be present, but other people may be present as well. Thesis defenses are publicized and any member of the University of Mississippi community is free to attend.
Defenses begin with you presenting a summary of your work. This summary should be prepared ahead of time, and it should be no less than five and no more than ten minutes in length. The purpose of this prelude is to provide a synopsis of your work understandable both by your committee members and by any members of the University of Mississippi community who decide to attend. Thus, you should not present any new arguments in this summary and you should attempt, when possible, to avoid jargon that only those who have read your work would understand. The Department asks you to deliver this prelude for the following reason: regardless of your career path, you will inevitably find yourself in situations where you must explain your work to other people who are not specialists in your chosen field or sub-discipline. The Faculty believes that you should practice delivering these brief glosses while you are still a student. Indeed, in addition to the five-to-ten minute version, it is not a bad idea to develop a quick two-minute version of your work, as well as a longer, more in-depth summary: this way you will be prepared to explain yourself in a great variety of situations.
After your initial presentation, the remainder of the defense is devoted to fielding questions from all those in attendance. Reading and re-reading the final version of your thesis is the best preparation for this stage of the defense. Moreover, the earlier you can produce a complete draft of the thesis/paper for your committee, the more likely it is that you will receive preliminary feedback.
After the question-and-answer period is over (usually with about 5 minutes left in the hour), everyone not on the committee will be asked to leave the room. The committee members will then vote on whether you have passed your defense (and thus earned your Masters degree). You will then be called back into the room and told the result. The vote will not be based exclusively on your performance during the defense. A poor oral defense of a strong thesis can still earn its author the degree. Still, the oral defense is a significant part of the decision whether to pass an M.A. thesis, so you are urged to prepare for it with care.

The good folks at Osprey continue to pump out new books with regularity, including titles focused on the American Civil War. Clayton James Donnell is the author of a new book entitled Shenandoah Valley 1862, an excellent entry-level treatise on Stonewall Jackson’s brilliant operations in the Valley in the spring of 1862. Other than a loss to Nathan Kimball early in the campaign at Kernstown, Jackson confounded a myriad of Union commanders and eventually cleared most of the Valley for the Confederate cause. Connell gives a sweeping overview of the movements, the battles, and the strategic and tactical implications of the fighting. Augmented with Adam Hook’s usual fine illustrations and maps and an array of period photographs and illustrations, this book is a useful addition to the Osprey lineup.
Long-time author and historian Ron Field is back with his latest work for Osprey, Lincoln’s 90-day Volunteers 1861. This is a concise account of how the states responded to President Abraham Lincoln’s call for 75,000 volunteers for three months to put down the rebellion, a seemingly easy task at the time. Field uses period newspapers, letters, diaries, and other first-person accounts to describe the response, the numbers of men, their armament and uniforms, and their early days as soldiers. As with Donnell’s book, Adam Hook has provided original graphics with some excellent plates of the early war uniforms (often gray for many of the Union fledgling regiments, which created some confusion at Manassas/Bull Run).
Here are a few photos of selected pages from the two new books, which are great additions to the ever growing Osprey lineup.
Osprey Publishing has issued two new books that may be of interest to wargamers and WWII history buffs. The first is Sicily 1943: The Debut of Allied Joint Operations, which examines the Allied attack on the largest island in the Mediterranean Sea, an operation code-named “Operation Husky.” Lavishly illustrated with Osprey’s normal high quality full color, custom paintings, this book is a sweeping overview of the initial Allied landings, the drive inward, and the patterns developed and tested in Sicily which later bore fruit in similar operations on the Italian mainland at places such as Salerno and Anzio Beach.
Written by American aerospace analyst Steven J. Zaloga with illustrations by British artist Howard Gerrard, this is a worthy addition to the line-up of Osprey’s Campaign Series (this is Volume 251 in this popular series). Several easy-to-comprehend maps spice up the text and provide a useful reference to the events being described in the text. Zaloga’s writing style is informative and interesting, and he covers the most important aspect of the Allied invasion in sufficient depth so as to give the reader a solid understanding of the basic movements, the strategy, leaders, equipment, and terrain involved with the attack and defense of Sicily. Gerrard’s slick and well composed paintings and selection of other illustrations and photographs are among the major highlights of the book. The reader will come away with a broad understanding of Operation Husky and its importance in the overall Allied strategy in the Mediterranean.
Sicily 1943 went on sale in January 2013, with a suggested price of $24.95. It is paperback, with 96 pages including the index.
The second book is a rules supplement for wargamers who use the Bolt Action rules set. Armies of the United States is more than just a book of army lists, far more. Almost every page features several full-color photographs of some excellent WWII miniatures — figures, armament, vehicles, tanks, etc. are all here. There are also several excellent dioramas and vignettes which give the gamers some interesting “eye candy” to help them with setting up their own gaming tables.
Author Massimo Torriani and a team of gamers, painters, historians, researchers, playtesters, and other support staff have collaborated in creating a book that has much wider appeal than just the folks who use the Bolt Action rules. General WWII gamers will appreciate the army lists and composition and the background information on the equipment, artillery, tanks, and vehicles. WWII buffs will find much of value in here as well.
Our friends at Osprey Publishing have issued two new Civil War-related titles which may be of interest to the wargaming community. The first of these, Avenging Angel, another title by long-time Osprey writer Ron Field, covers the infamous 1859 raid on Harper’s Ferry by abolitionist firebrand John Brown and his misguided followers. The attack culminated in the deaths of several townspeople, as well as most of the raiders (either on site or later via execution). This is Number 36 of Osprey’s “Raid” series, and like the rest it is lavishly illustrated. In this case, the artists are Allan Gilliland, Johnny Schumate, and Mark Stacey. Their work is up to the normal high standards of Osprey publications.
Osprey Publishing has issued Volume 25 of their “Raid” series, this one entitled Ride Around Missouri: Shelby’s Great Raid 1863. Written by former archaeologist and now full-time writer Sean McLachlan, the book covers a daring raid into Missouri by the Confederate Iron Brigade cavalry under famed leader Jo Shelby. Shelby, a devout pro-secessionist, had fought and killed Kansas “Jayhawkers” before the Civil War, and had served in some of the earliest battles in the Trans-Mississippi Theater. He had never forgot his passion for Missouri, however, and itched at a chance to lead a raid into the state to liberate it from Yankee rule. Governor-in-exile Thomas Reynolds and other Confederate officials were titular only, because the state had never seceded from the Union, and Federal troops maintained firm control over most of the state. Shelby hoped to change that.
In July 1863, the war news was discouraging for most Southerners — Vicksburg had surrendered; the Mississippi River was under Federal control; Robert E. Lee had lost a major battle in Pennsylvania at Gettysburg; and none of the border states had joined the Confederacy. Federals pushed deep in Arkansas and seized Little Rock. Shelby launched his raid to disrupt the oncoming Yankees. After several small engagements, Shelby managed to break through pursuing Federals and ride back into the Confederacy.
McLachlan gives a thorough overview of the strategic situation, the troops involved in the raid, some insight into Jo Shelby’s personality and previous experience, and the Northern (and Southern) reaction to the daring incursion. Lavishly illustrated, like all Osprey books, Ride Around Missouri includes an array of vintage period photographs, original maps commissioned for the book, bird’s-eye views, first-person accounts drawn from primary sources, and the usual excellent color illustrations of men, uniforms, equipment, and events.
The book is 80 pages, including the index and bibliography. It’s a useful addition to your wargaming or Civil War library. It is available at leading hobby retailers, book dealers, and on the Internet direct from Osprey or via amazon.com.

COLUMBUS may never have set foot on the west coast of South America, but the Spanish adventurers who followed him and settled on the long skinny coastline of Chile discovered a land with a heavenly climate for growing grapes, peaches, strawberries, and many other foods.
That isn't what they were looking for, of course. Avidly searching for spices and the fabled gold of the Inca empire, the conquistadors were not aware of the future value of their new possession - the land. Nor could they have been as impressed with the dry, smog-free, sunny, climate as were a group of food writers from the United States and Canada visiting Chile last month.
"For centuries the lush and fertile valleys, the hours of sunshine, have been ideal for growing many different horticultural species," says Rosario Valdez, food writer of Paula Cucina, a Chilean magazine. "In northern Chile's desert there are places where no drop of rain has ever fallen," she says. "And in the south there are regions where rain falls almost every day. There are fertile valleys in between, and one area called the lake district looks like Switzerland."
The story of Chilean cuisine follows history's imprint. The invading Spanish found the tough, warlike Araucanian Indians, who resisted conquest and extermination. The result was a blending of Indian and Spanish foods, with a diet mostly of seafood, fruit, corn, beans, and squash.
Preconquest Indians lacked ingredients such as milk, butter, and cheese. Meat was scarce except among ruling classes. The Indians had no eggs from chickens; ducks and wild birds were rare luxuries. History records that they were quick to adopt some of the crops and animals brought by the Spanish, accepting foods and cooking techniques when they fitted the Indians' way of life.
"The Indians have clung with amazing tenacity to their ancient customs, creating a Creole [regional] cuisine from the early cooking," explained food writer Valdez at an interview in Santiago, Chile's capital. "Many of the indigenous foods such as corn, beans, potatoes, and certain fruits, are still used in everyday cooking, as well as in traditional holiday dishes."
Chilean dishes are not peppery hot. There are local favorites such as empanadas, which are meat turnovers; humitas, a grated fresh-corn mixture steamed in corn husks; picaron, a fried pumpkin batter like a doughnut; and locro, a meat dish with potatoes.
At Los Lingues, a large adobe hacienda at San Fernando, 75 miles outside Santiago, our group had a rare glimpse of upper-echelon Chilean hospitality. Now a guest house and working farm, the home of German Claro Lira and his wife Maria Elena Lyon Claro has passed down through Mr. Claro's family since the land grant in 1545.
"I run Los Lingues as if it were my home," says Mrs. Claro, whose menu included such Chilean country foods as her own recipe for Pastel de Choclo, a traditional and delicious casserole of corn niblets, corn meal, hard-boiled eggs, raisins, seasoned beef, and chicken. At dinner the Claros joined guests around the formal dining table for a meal that combined continental service with native foods. Cheese Gnocchi, Turbot in Zucchini Flowerets, and Ratatouille Nicoise were followed by a Meringue Torte with Lu cuma, a delicious, unusual fruit, also called egg fruit.
What sets Chilean food apart is the surprise of flavors - the combination of unusual tastes that come from ingredients that are familiar to North Americans.
Both corn and bean dishes here have flavors that were new to our palates because of the freshness of the foods and the subtle seasonings. A commonly used sauce is called color, an orange-red mixture of garlic, paprika, and heated oil. Another favorite is pebre, made of onions, vinegar, oil, garlic, chilies, and coriander.
"During colonial days, the only indigenous desserts were the marvelous fruits," says Ms. Valdez.
"The utmost refinement was to serve cherimoyas, lucuma [egg fruit], and strawberries." The cherimoya, intensely sweet, but with a delightful flavor, is called "strawberry in heaven."
A French engineer, Amedee Frezier, took Chilean strawberries to France in the early 18th century and had them planted in the garden of Versailles.
The Incas made desserts from squash, beans, and sweet potatoes, but had no butter, cream, or sugar to make the rich desserts of Europe, which flourished when sugar was introduced. Today, small, very sweet pastries with a Spanish-Moorish influence are popular, especially in the late afternoon.
This tea time, or snack time, is a tradition in Chile as in most South American countries, where the earliest dinner hour is 8 p.m. and is often delayed to an hour or more later. Italian, French, British, and cosmopolitan influences have been added to the Chilean cuisine in more recent times, but all the foods have a distinction that is a constant reminder of the significant contributions of the Indians.
Today, Chile is known for the fresh fruits it exports. Nearly all the seedless red and green grapes sold in the US and Canada in winter come from Chile, where it is summertime.
Chile is also a source of fresh farmed Atlantic salmon for the United States, an industry started just 10 years ago.

WILLIAMSBURG, Va. - The William and Mary men's soccer team fell to Drexel, 3-0, Friday evening from Martin Family Stadium at Albert-Daly Field. With the loss, the Tribe falls to 2-6-2 on the year and 0-1-1 in CAA play, while the Dragons improve to 6-2-1 overall and 2-0 in league action. Due to thunderstorms in the region, Friday night's match was delayed one hour and 25 minutes, finally getting underway at 8:25 p.m.
After a back and forth opening 30 minutes, Drexel got on the scoreboard when sophomore Guido Pena connected on a free-kick goal in the 31st minute. For the half, the Green and Gold generated two shots with one coming on frame, while sophomore keeper Bennett Jones ended the half with one save.
Drexel pushed its advantage to 2-0 after tallying another free-kick score in the 55th minute. This time, sophomore John Grosh connected on goal from 22-yards away. Attempting to close the gap, the Tribe generated a quality look in the 79th minute. On a counter attack, junior Chris Perez raced over mid-field and slipped a pass to freshman Jackson Eskay, who was occupying the middle. Eskay then sent a beautiful through ball to the right-side of the 18, finding classmate Ryan Flesch, who flipped a shot over Drexel's sliding keeper, but missed just wide right of goal. Late in the contest, the Dragons connected on the night's third goal.
For the match, W&M outshot Drexel, 18-12, and owned the edge in shots on goal, 6-4. The Tribe also held the advantage in corner kicks, 6-5.
W&M returns to the pitch on Wednesday, Oct. 3, as it host UNCW in a contest slated to get underway at 7 p.m.

The United States would sustain more economic damage than Canada, while Mexico would suffer most, a study by the C.D. Howe institute concludes.
The termination of NAFTA would deal sharp blows to the auto industry and agriculture – two key sectors of the U.S. economy – setting off a battle between the Trump administration and the two industries and Congress, which will try to save the deal.
That's one of the conclusions of a forthcoming study done by the C.D. Howe Institute on the effect of the end of the North American free-trade agreement on the economies of the three NAFTA partners.
The United States would sustain more economic damage than Canada, while Mexico would suffer most, the study concludes. If the pact were allowed to lapse, gross domestic product in each of the three countries would take a hit, with exports of goods and services within the region slumping by about $110-billion (U.S.) or 9 per cent by 2023, the study says.
Negotiators from the three countries are meeting in Mexico City in the fifth round of talks on the future of the 23-year-old deal amid widespread concerns that U.S. demands in key areas are so onerous on Canada and Mexico that the Americans are effectively forcing termination.
U.S. President Donald Trump has criticized the deal as one of the worst his country has ever signed.
The C.D. Howe study ran economic models to assess the impact of three possible outcomes from the negotiations: the pact lapsing and the relationships among the three countries reverting to World Trade Organization rules; an end to the tripartite deal but the prior Canada-U.S. free-trade agreement remaining in place; and a Canada-U.S. free-trade deal supplemented by a separate Canada-Mexico agreement.
Although the effect on the U.S. economy would not be particularly heavy, the damage would be acute in agriculture and autos, the study says, causing the auto industry, the farm lobby and Congress to unite to try to save the deal.
"This battle will be fought within the United States, between U.S. stakeholders, Congress and the White House, not between Canada and Mexico and the Trump administration," says the study, titled Nafta Requiem: What if the U.S. walks away?
The effects on agriculture and autos amount to "poison pills" that Congress would be unable to swallow, said Dan Ciuriak, lead author of the study and a former chief economist with the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade who now heads his own consulting firm.
"How would the Trump administration roll over the agriculture lobby plus the auto lobby to withdraw from NAFTA?" Mr. Ciuriak asked in an interview. "I just don't see the politics working for the administration on that."
Terminating the agreement would cost Mexico $25-billion in economic welfare, or the combination of a reduction in wages and increases in prices as tariffs rise.
The comparable figures for Canada and the United States are $14.5-billion and $20-billion, respectively, the models in the study show.
"Mexico is by far the most exposed economy to NAFTA lapsing. Mexico put its economic eggs in the NAFTA basket and thus faces outsized risks from losing its gamble," the study says.
Mexico has been the target of much of Mr. Trump's rhetoric denouncing the deal, based on his perception and that of his supporters that millions of jobs have shifted to Mexico from the United States because of the elimination of tariffs on most goods and services when NAFTA came into force almost 25 years ago.
The impact on Canada from termination would be less drastic in part because 75 per cent of Canada's tariffs are at zero under the Most Favoured Nation (MFN) regime that would apply if there were no free-trade agreement.
But some sectors in Canada would take billion-dollar hits, the study notes, including business services, autos, and chemicals, rubber and plastics, whose exports to former NAFTA partner countries would decline.
U.S. bilateral auto exports would slump by $13.2-billion.
The beef, pork, poultry and dairy industries in the United States would each take hits of about $1-billion in exports.
The auto sector would be hit hard in Mexico as well, the study finds, in part because of the so-called chicken tariff of 25 per cent that the United States levies on pickup trucks imported from non-NAFTA countries.
Pickup assembly "would likely immediately pack up and move into the United States to avoid the 25 per cent if NAFTA lapses," the study says.
There is a debate among auto industry officials about what would happen to production of General Motors Co. pickup trucks in Oshawa, Ont. – scheduled to begin in January – if there is no NAFTA and the tariff regime reverts back to MFN status and the 25-per-cent chicken levy.
The study says the Trump administration would achieve its goal of reducing its trade deficit "but not because of improved trade balances with its NAFTA partners, but because the negative impact on its economy drives down overall imports from all sources compared to exports."
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce issued a report on Friday that said the 12 U.S. states most hurt by that country's withdrawal from NAFTA all voted for Mr. Trump a year ago.
Michigan, home to the head offices and several manufacturing operations of the Big Three auto makers, topped the list.

It was a bright but humid morning in Hong Kong, just two days before St. Patrick's Day 1985. Somewhere amid the narrow, pungent streets of the colony's bustling Central District, I was squeezed into the former broom closet the Voice of America had transformed into its broadcast studio.
Wedged in along side me was Alan Pessin, the VOA's man in Hong Kong. Pessin, who would later earn fame as the first Western journalist expelled from China following the Tiananmen Massacre last June, had just finished interviewing me about California's trade relations with the Far East.
"So where's what's-his-name been?" Pessin asked.
"Huh?," I shot back eloquently.
"Deukmejian," he said. "Look, at least a dozen governors have trooped through here in just the past three months. Last week it was Jim Thompson from Illinois. This week it's Dukakis from Massachusetts. So why hasn't George Deukmejian been here yet?"
The truth was that in 1985 the chief executive of the most prosperous and arguably the most cosmopolitan state in America not only lacked a passport, he positively scorned the notion that, as governor, he should be a travelling salesman for California.
All of this has changed considerably, of course. Almost immediately after his decisive re-election victory in November 1986, George Deukmejian, perhaps with an eye on the national political scene, hit the road. Starting with a much publicized trip in January 1987 to Tokyo, where he opened the first in a network of overseas trade and investment offices, the Governor has become absolutely peripatetic. In just the past three years, he has journeyed to fourteen nations on five continents, including a visit in the summer of 1988 to Alan Pessin's Hong Kong.
More importantly, when he steps down next January, Deukmejian will leave behind an imposing battery of international trade, investment and tourism promotion programs which were all established during his years as governor and which are among the most highly regarded and widely emulated in the nation.
As with most political leaders, Deukmejian is fond of taking credit for any accomplishments recorded during his watch, almost irrespective of the role he actually played. In this instance, though, he does merit praise for supporting, if at times belatedly, the fairly rapid expansion of the state's international programs. He also deserves recognition for getting himself more personally involving in marketing the state's products and its investment opportunities abroad. And he is to be applauded for avoiding the excesses of "Pacific Mania" by selecting sites for California's overseas trade and investment offices which reflect the actual distribution of the state's export markets and the sources of foreign investment flowing into California.
Nevertheless, serious questions have been raised regarding the state's activities in the field of international commerce. Several critics, including some of the Governor's closest political allies, charge that the state's international programs, scattered as they are over several government agencies, are inadequately coordinated. Private groups such as the California Council for International Trade and the Foreign Trade Association of Southern California have voiced concern that the survival of the state's overseas offices is too subject to gubernatorial whimsy. Doubts are also being expressed about whether state officials should be actively engaged in luring foreign investors to California. And then there is the bottom-line question that is most assuredly guaranteed to set the cat amongst the pigeons: Do all these programs, collectively funded at $15 million in the current fiscal year, really make any difference?
So as to better appreciate, if not savor, these issues, it's worth tracing the remarkable history of California's current flock of international programs back to the beginning of the modern era, 1982, when the Legislature enacted a measure authored by Assembly Speaker Willie Brown to create the California State World Trade Commission.
The CSWTC was the Legislature's response to America's steadily widening trade deficit and to the Reagan administration's cuts in export promotion efforts at the federal level. In replacing the state's moribund Office of International Trade with a new structure, the Legislature intended to elevate the stature of export promotion activities within state government. To that end, the new commission would (at least in theory) bring together prominent members of California's international business community with California's highest elected officials, namely the Governor and Lieutenant Governor and the Secretary of State. Ironically, though, while Brown's measure explicitly designated the CSWTC as the lead agency for coordinating all state programs relating to international trade and investment, other language in the bill would make it impossible for the commission to play that vital role.
For reasons which will perhaps forever remain murky, the Speaker's bill endowed the CSWTC with two masters. While the Secretary of State would be its chair, the CSWTC would be located, for administrative purposes, under the jurisdiction of the Governor's Office.
The selection of the commission's chair had everything to do with the incumbent Secretary of State, March Fong Eu, and absolutely nothing to do with the Secretary's role in state government, which is to serve as the state's chief elections officer and the keeper of various sets of official records. Historically, the job had none of the diplomatic prerogatives associated with the U.S. Secretary of State.
As a long-time exponent of world trade, the durable Mrs. Eu, a Democrat who has been Secretary of State since 1975, seemed a likely enough choice to lead an invigorated state trade effort. The possibility that Mrs. Eu's successors might not share her passion for world trade was tacitly dismissed by the Legislature as was the even more important consideration that governors, whatever their party affiliation, are normally loathe to cede power to other constitutional officers.
A Tom Bradley victory in November 1982 would have eventually tested the chair's authority. But the election of George Deukmejian definitely insured that the CSWTC, chaired by a Democratic officeholder, would have little chance to assert its statutory responsibility for supervising the trade-related activities of the in-coming Republican administration.
This decidedly odd arrangement did not at first give rise to any major problems, but only because the new Governor did not seem especially interested in trade issues during his first term. To be sure, Deukmejian regularly attended Commission meetings, but he took no active role in devising a coherent administrative framework by which to manage the new international programs that would eventually be coming on line.
For its part, the Legislature shared much of the Governor's ambivalence regarding the need for formal structures. (Not until September 1989 did the Legislature finally empanel a Joint Committee on International Trade after several years of experimenting with half-measures.) It did not, however, share the Governor's slowness to act.
1986 proved to be a year of both expansion and consolidation in the state's international bureaucracy. In addition to the programs operated by the CSWTC and the CDFA, somewhat more modest international programs had blossomed elsewhere in state government. Over at the California Energy Commission, an innovative program had been devised to help identify overseas markets for alternative energy technologies developed by California firms. At the same time, state Department of Commerce officials continued to extend their mandate for attracting new business to encompass the solicitation of foreign investment. (DoC eventually sanctified this assumption of responsibility by formally establishing an Office of Foreign Investment in 1988.) Elsewhere within the Commerce Department, the Office of Tourism was laying the foundation for a major campaign to attract more foreign travelers to the Golden State. Finally, some reference should be made to the Office of California-Mexico Relations even though its precise role in recent years has generally defied description.
Having presumably grown weary of watching its unhappy two-headed creation, the CSWTC, lurch about Sacramento's bureaucratic landscape, the Legislature enacted a reform measure by Speaker Brown. As a result, the CSWTC was placed more directly under the Governor's control by giving him the right to appoint a majority of the commissioners and to select the chair. By then, however, too many new programs and players had entered a virtually un-refereed game, and each agency guarded its corner of the field jealously. The implications of these confused circumstances soon became starkly evident as the state set about opening overseas office.
To no one's real surprise, the study that resulted from Gwen Moore's 1984 bill concluded that such facilities were in fact desirable. With both the Legislature and the Administration in agreement on this point, the only question was where to put the overseas offices on the Administration's organization chart. Up to this juncture, the individual programs could operate in relative isolation. In any case, the absence of any formal mechanism for coordinating the state's international programs had not elicited much in the way of hand-wringing. But with the opening of the first overseas offices on the horizon, the issue had to be joined. Under whose aegis would these offices operate? The California State World Trade Commission? The state Department of Commerce? The California Department of Food and Agriculture?
Unwilling to spark a nasty bureaucratic feud by selecting one of the above, the administration was equally disinclined to embrace the option advocated and thus possibly preempted by Lieutenant Governor Leo McCarthy. At a September 1986 meeting of the CSWTC, McCarthy proposed that a cabinet-level official be designated as the state's trade "tsar" responsible for coordinating all international programs as well as supervising the overseas offices.
In the end, the Administration's solution to the problem effectively side-stepped the bureaucracy by declaring that the state's new outposts abroad would be run directly out of the Governor's Office. To insure that everything ran smoothly, the Governor would have a member of his staff act as his World Trade Coordinator.
This was a novel arrangement. As a secretariat of fewer than one hundred people, the Governor's Office was never designed to administer programs. It is more or less the chief executive's private fief, existing apart from the vast state bureaucracy and operating behind the veil of executive privilege and thus beyond the reach of legislative oversight.
Although ingenious, this arrangement gave rise to at least as many problems as it resolved. For one thing, the overseas offices exist solely at the pleasure of the governor since they were established by gubernatorial fiat and not by statute. The nightmare haunting supporters of the overseas offices features a future governor -- one less concerned about international trade -- facing a severe budget crisis. Looking for a politically dramatic gesture, that governor could find the overseas offices, which account for a quarter of the Governor's Office budget, too tempting a target for extinction.
The vulnerability of these overseas offices, together with what many regard as an excessively informal manner with which the state's international programs are now coordinated, has led to calls for further reform. In 1987, for example, the state's watchdog Little Hoover Commission chastised the administration by observing that: "California's trade activities are too dispersed among agencies to allow coordination and accountability. Furthermore, the existing structure of trade activities does little to ensure longevity."
The Little Hoover Commission report also questioned whether the individual picked by the Governor as his World Trade Coordinator had either the appropriate background or the time to also handle the considerable responsibilities of World Trade Coordinator.
More recently, a special committee of the CSWTC, headed by Robert Monagan, has offered its own plan for a more formal mechanism for coordinating (and perhaps even insuring the survival of) the state's international programs. Monagan, of course, is no renegade. Apart from being Deukmejian's choice as chairman of the CSWTC, he is among the California's most respected and well-liked public figures.
Despite such urging, however, the Governor, especially in his final year in office, is not apt to concede the existence of critical flaws in the machinery of his Administration. Even though further re-organization of the state's international bureaucracy is inevitable, it is not likely to occur until after California's next governor takes office next January.
But suppose the next chief executive is inclined toward parsimony and demands greater accountability from program managers. Such things happen. To what extent, then, can the international programs be justified as worthwhile investments of taxpayers' money? Unhappily, there is no easy or straightforward answer.
From a macroeconomic perspective, termination of the state's export promotion programs would not have a statistically significant impact on California's $40 billion a year export trade. Even assuming that a reliable method could be devised for measuring the benefits produced by these programs, the numbers would only represent shares of one-tenth of one percent of the total export trade. A half-cent shift in the value of the dollar overseas would have a much more dramatic impact.
But why should such relatively modest programs be expected to have a measurable influence on the international commercial relations of the world's eighth largest economic unit? A more appropriate question may be whether these programs pay their own way, so to speak, by stimulating enough new economic activity to provide taxpayers a reasonable return on their investment. Sadly, though, the economic benefits imparted by these programs resist measurement.
To what extent, for example, did an appointment arranged by the state's London office result in an export sale? How much did a briefing by an Office of Foreign Investment staffer figure into a Canadian company's decision to build a factory here? To what degree was a French couple persuaded to holiday in California by the Office of Tourism brochure they read? How critical was the trade lead provided by the CSWTC's Office of Export Development in landing a new export contract?
As these questions suggest, the problem of gauging the results of such "interventions" is really one of apportioning credit for positive outcomes. There are simply no ready formulas for doing so.
Although program managers should not necessarily be expected to defend themselves with statistical data as though they were loan officers at an ailing S&L, neither should they neglect the importance of setting and then meeting specific objectives. Even though there may be no way of calculating the precise economic impact of the state's international programs, there should be some means of determining that the right things are being done. While there is currently a strong consensus that California's international programs have been valuable additions to the state bureaucracy in recent years, the twin dangers of complacency and self-delusion stand as challenges that future re-organization plans must overcome.
In the final analysis, the programs' greatest value may be symbolic. By emphasizing the importance of expanded exports and demonstrating the state's earnest commitment to this end, they advance a crucial public policy interest. The fact that these programs, notwithstanding the evident absence of adequate coordination, often help make a difference for a steadily growing number of California businesses and the people they employ constitutes a splendid bonus.

NICOLE WALLACE, MCCAIN CAMPAIGN SENIOR ADVISER: It was also revealed tonight, that even Barack Obama can't sell his bad ideas, even Barack Obama can't stand there with all his eloquence and sell ideas that are not in the mainstream of the American political discussion and debate about on our major issues.
It is out of the mainstream to continue to rail against the surge that has brought us to the edge of victory in Iraq. It is out of the mainstream to be unable to list a single item that he would cut in a bipartisan effort to cut spending and it is out of the mainstream to still champion tax increases on the vast majority of the American people.
So I think what you saw tonight is the greatest political communicator of our generation struggling, struggling to illustrate that he was in the same league when it comes to readiness, and judgment and experience with John McCain.
DANA BASH, CNN WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENCE: Nicole, thank you very much. I know you're going back to Washington with Senator McCain.
WALLACE: Yes, we're heading out in a few minutes.
BASH: Thanks for your time.
BASH: And Wolf, we want to -- obviously, you heard the line here from Senator McCain, we're hearing that pretty much throughout this spin room here. The other thing that the mantra that we're hearing from Senator McCain's advisors is that they believe that this is an issue that was a debate that was on Senator McCain's turf and something that they don't believe Senator Obama did very well.
Now we've hear different things from the Obama campaign obviously.
WOLF BLITZER, CNN ANCHOR, "THE SITUATION ROOM": We certainly are Dana thanks very much and thank Nicole as well.
The Democratic Vice-Presidential Nominee Joe Biden is standing by, he's joining us live, I suspect. He's got a different assessment of what just happened than Nicole Wallace.
You're smiling. But what do you say, Senator Biden to this charge that Senator McCain leveled against Senator Obama repeatedly that he simply doesn't understand what's going on, he doesn't have the experience to deal with what's going on and he's afraid to admit that he was wrong about the surge in Iraq?
SEN. JOE BIDEN, (D) DELAWARE VICE PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEE: Hey, look, who was right and who was wrong? John McCain was dead wrong on the war, John McCain's been dead wrong in Afghanistan, John McCain's been dead wrong in his judgment supporting Bush's shredding national regulations to control Wall Street. And now John McCain says, talk about I heard the young woman, the lady behind me say that, you know, this was all about mainstream.
Well, the mainstream wants to end the war in Iraq, let the Iraqis spend their $79 billion, not just have John continue to spend $10 billion a month.
And so Wolf, on every single area, it seemed to me that John was mired in the past as he usually is. I'll give you one example, John tried to lecture Barack that the surge was a strategic idea. John, listen to me, our own commander said it was a tactic in order to reach a strategic objective. The strategic objective was increase force to give breathing room for the strategic political settlement.
John doesn't even know the difference between strategy and tactic and he's trying to lecture Barack. He's been dead wrong on these issues; he's tethered to a failed policy that got us in this position.
And think about it. The surge is over. What's John's answer, what does he do next? How do we leave Iraq and leave it stable? Barack has laid out exactly how to do that.
And last point is John talks about how to protect America. He hasn't voted for the 9/11 commission recommendations, John hasn't voter for the veterans. The DAV rates him at 20 percent, disabled veterans of America.
So look, this was a -- I think John was on his strongest turf today and he lost and I think it's going to be fatal.
BLITZER: At Washington University in St. Louis. What did you learn tonight about this first debate that might help you going forward?
BIDEN: Well, I hope I can be as good as Barack Obama was and I hope that Sarah Palin defends the same position John McCain does. That's what I learned.
Now, we may see a different thing. I have great respect for the -- what I hear and watched some of the debating skills of Governor Palin. I think it's going to be a really tough debate.
But I think this is all about where we are. Are we talking about past or the future, and what are you going to do? What's the future? What are you going to do economically and politically and what are you going to do relative to the war. And that's what I'm going to try to talk about and we'll see and let the voters make the judgment. I just hope I do as well as Barack did.
BLITZER: We'll of course be here Thursday watching that 90-minute debate. One final question, Senator Biden, before I let you go I know we have only a limited window.
What do you say to what Nicole Wallace and other McCain supporters say that John McCain came up with a bold decisive piece of action; he's going to have a spending freeze with the exception of national security or veterans or some of the entitlements if in fact he is elected president.
He says that Barack Obama really didn't come up with anything bold or decisive that given the enormity of this economic crisis we're facing right now.
BIDEN: I didn't hear him when he said he'd consider that. What I heard was nobody knows what's going to happen in terms of this bailout. No one knows how much it's going to cut into, if it cuts into the ability of the next president to be able to move his programs.
What I did hear Barack Obama say, was in order to get the economy moving again, we've got to deal with reinstating the middle class so they can have money to spend.
I watched John McCain talk about how he's going to give $300 billion more to corporate America as well as the very wealthy. And Barack Obama says, look, give it to the people who need it, the people who in fact are in the middle class, that's going to move the economy.
I didn't hear anything about the future from John. All I heard from John tonight was the past and quite frankly, his judgments in the past being tethered to the policies of Bush economically and in foreign policy I think had been an abject failure. As the old Ronald Reagan said, if you like the last eight years, then John McCain showed you, you should stick with him.
BLITZER: Yes, you're right about that freeze, he said he would consider a freeze, he didn't say he would in fact go forward with a freeze.
A little bit of preview of what we might be hearing from you next Thursday night. Senator Joe Biden thanks very much for joining us.
BIDEN: Thanks an awful lot Wolf. Thanks for having me.
BLITZER: All right Senator Joe Biden the Senator from Delaware, the Democratic Vice-Presidential Nominee.
Anderson, I would love Sarah Palin to be joining us tonight and try to get a little preview of what she has to say. But I don't think she's joining us, but it would be nice.
ANDERSON COOPER, CNN ANCHOR, "AC360": Don't hold your breath on that one.
Let's go from spin from both the spin room and spin from both sides to actually some facts. And one of the things we want to do over this next hour in this post-debate version of "360" is look at some of the statements that were made and check them against the facts.
One of the points of contention between these two men was the issue of diplomacy and the issue of whether or not Barack Obama said he would meet directly with foreign leaders in the first year of his office.
It all references back to a statement he gave during the first YouTube debate which was back in July 23rd, 2007. It seems like ten years ago, not just one year ago, but let's listen to what Barack Obama said during this YouTube Democratic debate.
STEPHEN SORTA: In 1982, Anwar Sadat traveled to Israel, a trip that resulted in a peace agreement that has lasted ever since. In the spirit of that type of bold leadership, would you be willing to meet separately, without precondition, during the first year of your administration in Washington or anywhere else, with the leaders of Iran, Syria, Venezuela, Cuba and North Korea, in order to bridge the gap that divides our countries?
COOPER: I will also point out that Stephen is in the crowd tonight. Senator Obama?
SEN. BARACK OBAMA, (D) PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEE: I would. And the reason is this. That the notion that somehow not talking to countries is punishment to them, which has been the guiding diplomatic principle of this administration is ridiculous.
COOPER: John King, what about that? Ever since he has made that statement, which he was attacked for by Republicans and even by Hillary Clinton camp back then because he was running against her.
JOHN KING, CNN CHIEF CORRESPONDENT: And by Joe Biden, his vice- presidential running mate.
COOPER: And Joe Biden, exactly, they've been trying to sort of clean it up.
KING: In that statement I would. There's no nuance in that statement. The question was, would you meet with these rogue leaders in the view of the United States government the current administration would you meet with them in your first year in office without precondition in Washington or anywhere else and his answer was two words, I would.
That's a short declarative answer, you don't get them much in debates, so we as reporters appreciate them when we get them. But that is out of bounds in the foreign policy community. And since then, he did not say, I would if the proper preparations were made which is what he said tonight.
But I would be willing to do that, if you had first the preparations and if you knew there was probably something productive or potentially something productive come to the meeting. He was hammered for that answer by Hillary Clinton. He was criticized by Joe Biden. McCain has criticized him from the beginning of his campaign.
COOPER: You say he started to clean it up, has he changed his answer?
KING: His answer, you heard it tonight, that he thinks that a president should keep that option, that a president should never rule out meeting face to face with somebody even if you disagree with them; even you have profound differences with them. But you heard him say over and over again tonight, when McCain was trying to pin him on this question that, of course you would have preparations before hand, of course there will be lower level meetings before hand. You would only do it if it were smart.
And that's -- it's a still a difference answer from John McCain but it's a much more nuanced answer about how you get to the table. That first answer, even his own staff conceded at that point in time, didn't have that nuance and that was a mistake.
COOPER: And the conversation tonight between McCain and Obama then evolved into a question about what Henry Kissinger's position was; Henry Kissinger a supporter of John McCain. Christiane, you recently had an opportunity to talk to him.
CHRISTIANE AMANPOUR, CNN CHIEF INTERNATIONAL CORRESPONDENT: Well, he was referring directly to a forum of five former Secretaries of State that we hosted along with Frank Sesno on CNN a weekend ago, in which five former Secretary of State spanning Republican and Democratic administrations basically said that the next U.S. president, their best advice to the next U.S. president, would be to get his administration to start direct negotiations with Iran without preconditions.
Now, they did set about the level and nobody suggested of course and nobody does that a president would do that first and as you know the Obama campaign has walked that back.
But it is a philosophical difference between a McCain and an Obama. If there was a McCain administration there would be the current continuation according to what he says, of isolation sanctions and all sticks and no carrots.
If there would an Obama administration, there would be negotiations. And it's entered the mainstream now. This is what distinguished, long term, long serving, foreign service personnel as people are saying.
COOPER: We have part of the sound from that CNN Forum. Let's watch.
FRANK SESNO, CNN: You put it at a very high level right out of the box?
COOPER: What's the difference, David Gergen or Christiane is really, at what level?
AMANPOUR: Well, right. The point is that these Secretaries of State have come to the conclusion that the silent treatment has not worked, that isolation on its own without incentives has not worked, and that there needs to be a different relationship between the United States and Iran who have had no relations for the last 30 years but where there is so much that needs be resolved.
And one of the other things that Obama said tonight was that in fact, the war in Iraq has emboldened Iran, has really given Iran such a huge amount of sway in that part of the world, by getting rid of Saddam Hussein, by backing the majority Shiites in Iraq and by becoming a real power in that area.
On the sort of cosmetic level, I was quite -- I sort of giggled a little bit when I saw John McCain stumble over Ahmadinejad's name.
COOPER: Is that really fair though, I mean, people make mistakes all the time.
AMANPOUR: Is it fair for anybody? Why not, I mean if I stumble, it would be fair comment. But the point of the matter is that there is a distinct difference. And that was one of the biggest difference that they had in this foreign policy debate.
MICHAEL WARE, CNN INTERNATIONAL CORRESPONDENT BAGHDAD: And Tehran will be surprised to learn that there are late forces of the Republican Guards as opposed to the Revolutionary Guard. And both candidates, first Senator McCain and then Senator Obama followed calling them the Republican Guards. Know thy enemy obviously doesn't apply in the presidential debate.
KING: Somebody is watching our discussion in the McCain campaign just released a statement by none other than Henry Kissinger, who says, quote, "Senator McCain is right I would not recommend the next president of the United States engage in talks with Iran at the presidential level. My views on this issue are entirely compatible with the views of my friend Senator John McCain. We do not agree on everything but we do agree that any negotiations with Iran must be geared to reality."
So this is a post debate. Things move quickly.
DAVID GERGEN, CNN SENIOR POLITICAL ANALYST: I want to go back to what Christiane is saying because I think it's really fundamental.
There is a major difference that emerged tonight across a variety of issues, in John McCain's approach to international affairs and Barack Obama's.
Barack Obama stresses -- puts heavier stress on diplomacy, working with other nations, trying to go a different way from what George Bush has gone. And John McCain has a much tougher, more muscular view; it's much closer to the neoconservative position. He has a number of neoconservatives around him, it's on Iran, it's on Russia, it's on Iraq and all of these, he wants to bring a very muscular view.
JEFFREY TOOBIN, CNN LEGAL CORRESPONDENT: I'm sorry; it's very similar to President Bush's first term view. It's not President Bush's second term view when he has been engaging with North Korea and Iran.
AMANPOUR: There are still conditions, Jeffrey. President Bush does not negotiate with Iran without preconditions. There are still conditions. And the conditions are "stop your uranium enrichment." There are no negotiations on the nuclear issue right now.
TOOBIN: But McCain's position is much more like the first conditions.
COOPER: We're going to have a lot more to talk about ahead. Our coverage continues on "AC360."
BLITZER: Welcome back to the CNN "Election Center." we're continuing our coverage of the reaction to this first presidential debate here in the United States.
We've been getting some emails from viewers out there wondering why we spent time interviewing Joe Biden the Democratic Vice-Presidential Nominee and not Sarah Palin, the Republican Vice-Presidential Nominee.
We would love to have interviewed -- we still have to interview Sarah Palin and unfortunately we asked and we didn't get that interview. We did speak to Nicole Wallace, a senior advisor to John McCain. We're hoping that Sarah Palin will go join us at some point down the road.
Candy Crowley is joining us right now from Oxford, Mississippi, the University of Mississippi where this debate occurred. It's pretty empty right now behind you. They put a lot of work into it. It's now over with.
Candy, give us your sense of what happened. You've been covering the Obama campaign now for quite a while.
CANDY CROWLEY, CNN SENIOR POLITICAL CORRESPONDENT: It was almost as though, I think, we were watching two different debates. I was totally struck by the fact that we have spent this entire week talking about how urgent it is that something get done on Capitol Hill, that the financial institutions, the underpinning of the United States of America's economy was at stake.
And, boy, they started that and they were both so flat, it was talking about tax cuts, and I thought they just really both started out pretty slowly. Once we got into the foreign policy debate, I think that they were both a little more animated.
Did I hear anything new from Barack Obama? No.
Did I hear anything new from John McCain? No.
But it is always instructive to have the two of them together. Watch the interaction. And clearly, if you have not been paying as close attention as most of us have been paying now for almost two years, you learn a lot of things.
There are stark differences between these candidates on how they feel about foreign policy and various issues within foreign policy as well as the economy and there are stylistic differences and I think you saw all of that tonight.
BLITZER: We certainly did. And there'll be two other opportunities for those still undecided Americans to make up their minds; two more presidential debates and next Thursday in St. Louise, Missouri, a vice-presidential debate as well.
Candy, we're going to getting back to you.
I want to walk over to Donna Brazile and Leslie Sanchez, and Alex Castellanos and Paul Begala.
Donna, we haven't heard from you yet, give us your reaction to what you heard and saw tonight.
DONNA BRAZILE, CNN POLITICAL CONTRIBUTOR, DEMOCRATIC STRATEGIST: Well, John McCain needed a game changer. And he didn't get that Wolf. He scored points by showing up because he was down so low before coming into the debate.
But Senator Obama displayed not just seasoned judgment but also I thought that he was confident, he understood the economy, he tied it to international issues, he was very comfortable with the subject matter, especially foreign policy. So overall, I think Senator Obama did very well tonight.
BLITZER: And no major blunders from either of these candidates? Major, both of them slipped up a little bit but there are no major blunders?
BRAZILE: So far, one YouTube moment, and that's when as Paul pointed out earlier, when Senator Obama told Senator McCain that he was wrong, when he tied him to again, George Bush foreign policy and economic policy. That clearly scored, that's the only YouTube moment so far.
BLITZER: Leslie, what do you think?
LESLIE SANCHEZ, REPUBLICAN STRATEGIST: Well, I think a lot of people would like to write off to Senator McCain as being gone. And out of this until you got the double digit lead and I think it's just a crapshoot, either way. And just to put it in perspective I think look at the fact 90 percent of people already made up their mind coming into tonight's debates.
What it did is it reinforced your ideas, it increased intensity and neither of them exactly right, made any major blunders. But I do think Barack Obama was somewhat on the defensive. And I disagree with my colleague in terms of disrespect; he called Senator McCain John constantly.
I way back to as far as 1972 you can't see other references as people calling their counterpart by their first name. He didn't call him Barry for example.
And also these issues of spending taxes, unconditional meetings, it was a lot of back and forth; they held their own but I do think there was a sense of him being professorial.
BLITZER: So when Senator McCain referred to Barack Obama he would called him Senator Obama and when Senator Obama referred to John McCain he called him John do you think was a -- it was that slight is that what you're suggesting?
SANCHEZ: I think to some degree it was. When you have an issue of characterization and people say you're an elitist, and this professor, and you use those examples, it plays into that.
BRAZILE: Leslie, I heard that, too, but he was saying, John, he was trying to correct the record because there were so many instances, with Senator McCain was clearly misstating the facts. And I think Senator Obama became frustrated and say, John, he was trying to correct the information, there was no slight there.
BLITZER: Alex when we were watching the scorecard that was going on along the side, if you had high definition TV, and I believe, you can correct me if I am wrong; you actually gave Barack Obama more points for taking advantage of opportunities than John McCain.
ALEX CASTELLANOS, CNN CONTRIBUTOR: I think Barack Obama did a couple of interesting things tonight. He said George Bush a lot. He scored with a lot of jabs tonight; he had a lot of little shots. But this was the debate that the smaller it gets, the more details it is, the less good it is for Barack Obama.
Barack Obama is the big picture guy. He did better really when he talked about big things, the vision in America and energy and independence, things like that. I thought McCain was successful, even though Barack Obama scored a lot, I think a few more points. McCain dragged kind of dragged him down into the foreign policy debate and worked him over, I thought pretty good.
It looked almost a little bit like at times so Obama was looking for the flash cards and he'd crammed for the exam and McCain obviously didn't have to do that, I've been to Waziristan.
BLITZER: But what about the argument Barack Obama made, yes, well, maybe the surge has worked, but the fundamental decision to go into Iraq against Saddam Hussein back in March of 2003, I thought that was a big mistake, and you thought that was the right thing to do, so your judgment is questioned about deploying U.S. troops in a war.
CASTELLANOS: For those people who agree with Obama about that, he certainly scored some points there. But overall, the beginning of this debate when it was on the economy was tough for both candidates. As soon as it moved to foreign policy, I thought McCain helped himself, displayed much more command and experience. He'd lived it as where the other guy have read about it in a book.
I think what's going to happen, is this over the next two days, McCain got some momentum out of this and we're going to see him move probably a couple points in the polls.
BLITZER: Well, let's ask Paul Begala, do you agree with that?
PAUL BEGALA, DEMOCRATIC STRATEGIST: No. Each campaign has a negative frame for the other guy, right? The McCain campaign wants you to think that Obama is risky and McCain made the case as strongly as he could at the end, right? I'm experienced, I'm strong and essentially by implications.
I don't think anybody looked at Barack Obama tonight, and saw a guy who looked risky. He was not poor Sarah Palin falling down in front of Katie Couric, right? He looked to me, strong, steady, confident, and on the Iraq war and he grabbed McCain by the lapels and thrashed him.
Now, the Obama campaign wants you to think that John McCain has served yesterday's man; that this is the future versus the past. There were a couple of moments -- there were no senior moments. He didn't stumble or anything but there was moments where he did look like he was way too rooted in the past.
He used to talk about Alexander the Great, I think he knew Alexander the Great, citing Henry Kissinger who is the Secretary of State I mean for Millard Philmore in the 19th century.
McCain just seem really backwardly looking I think in this debate and that I score for Barack, it's future versus the past, I think we saw who was in the future or who is in the past.
BLITZER: All right, guys, standby, Paul has got some views and he's letting us know where he stands. All right, we're taking a quick break.
We're going out to the Heartland. Our viewers have been watching and we've been watching them and you've been seeing some of what they have been seeing.
But we're going to go out there and Soledad O'Brien is in Columbus, Ohio, with a focus group.
Much more of our coverage coming up right here after this.
COOPER: And welcome back to this post-debate edition of "360." You're looking at a live picture there of the CNN express. I want to show you we've just conducted a telephone poll at the CNN opinion research poll 524 adult Americans surveyed by the telephone.
The first question: who did the best job in the debate; Obama, 51 percent, John McCain, 38 percent. The next question was, who would better handle Iraq, the answer to that Obama 52 percent to John McCain's 47 percent. And then the third question, who would better handle the economy, 58 percent for Obama, 37 percent of respondents said John McCain.
What do you make of that, John King?
KING: Well, one thing, looking at our poll, is that the pollsters are saying that the audience watching has a higher percentage of Democrats in the country as a whole. It would be interesting if we watch other organizations polls to see if more Democrats tuned into the debate and what are the reasons for that.
But certainly if you have these headlines tomorrow that say the polls say Obama won that certainly helps Barack Obama especially in a debate -- the first third of it was not about foreign policy it was about the economic crisis -- but in which if people were thinking at home this is the debate about foreign policy that's supposed to be John McCain's strong and so they maybe they didn't watch for whatever reasons, had soccer practice with the kids, and have other things going on they've see in the newspapers, Obama won, that will help Obama without a doubt.
COOPER: So is that just a matter where expectations versus the reality do actually influence in the people see it?
GLORIA BORGER, CNN SENIOR POLITICAL ANALYST: Yes. I think so. I think the McCain campaign tried to really manage expectations about their fellow and so did the Obama campaign and clearly he was not supposed to be the expert on foreign policy.
But one thing I think he did really well on the economy was the line that John McCain uses all the time is that Barack Obama will raise your taxes and I won't. He took it right to McCain on the tax issue and said to people out there, if you earn over under $250,000 a year, nothing will happen to your taxes or you'll get a tax cut. JEFFREY TOOBIN, CNN SENIOR LEGAL ANALYST: What's significant, I think, about these polls is there tends to be a multiplier effect about these debates. Initially, people aren't quite sure. But once one side is established as a winner, it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.
ANDERSON COOPER, CNN ANCHOR, "AC360": I remember reading after, I think I read on Amy Sullivan's (ph) Website after Ross Perot's debate the first time around, a small percentage said he had done well and he had won. By the next day, they had told friends and it was a huge much larger percentage that he had won.
TOOBIN: And that happened in 2000, with Ronald Reagan and Jimmy Carter and it's been true with most of these debates. It is very important, I think, that the first objective analysis, not from us but from actual polls, I think it's consistent across the network, all show Obama winning.
CAMPBELL BROWN, CNN ANCHOR, "ELECTION CENTER": You look at this going forward, and to follow up on Gloria's point, Alex mentioned this, too. One of the most effective I thought lines was earlier in the evening when they were talking about the economy, this is their strategy from here on out for Obama, connecting McCain at every opportunity to George W. Bush in the last eight years.
McCain was excellent on foreign policy tonight clearly.
When are we going to talk about foreign policy again between now and the election night if at all? We go back to the economy immediately.
COOPER: It feels strange, frankly, that they even talked about it tonight after two weeks of nothing but economic issues.
JOHN KING, CNN CHIEF NATIONAL CORRESPONDENT: And yet when people do pull the curtain behind them, yes, the election is fundamentally about the economy, but you're still making a decision that time when there are tens of thousands of troops in Iraq, tens of thousands of troops in Afghanistan.
KING: People still know the President of the United States is commander-in-chief. And so are they going to ask what was the answer on Waziristan or what was the answer about the Pakistani president? No. Are they going to say can this person be commander in chief? Because that's as big a judgment as how to deal with the financial crisis.
And what I found most striking is, remember 1992, Bill Clinton looked at George H.W. Bush and said I will go after the dictators and the butchers in Beijing. They had a foreign that wasn't all that much different.
That happens a lot in campaigns. The candidates draw these big contrasts in foreign and the establishment sort of runs foreign policy. In this campaign, there actually are differences; significant differences between these two men that would actually become the policy differences depending on who wins.
KING: If you look at the universe of undecided voters, and who they are; they're Democrats and independents mostly. If you look at that universe, if those people thought today that Barack Obama was ready to be commander-in-chief, this election would have -- he would have a much bigger lead in the election.
The challenge for him in the debates is getting over that threshold. If he can do that, there's no reason he won't be the next president.
COOPER: I want David and Christiane to weigh in then we're going to go into break.
CHRISTIANE AMANPOUR, CNN CHIEF INTERNATIONAL CORRESPONDENT: I'm incredibly concerned; I have traveled around this country in many states including so-called swing states giving speeches and things like that. Americans are incredibly concerned and desperately hope that their next president will lift America's reputation up again, will make America's connections with the rest of the world absolutely strong and admirable again. They're very, very concerned how desperately low America's standing has sunk in the world. Very concerned.
DAVID GERGEN, CNN SENIOR POLITICAL ANALYST: I can't emphasize enough how important I think these numbers are because this is a pivotal night for John McCain. He needed to take this night.
If these polls and policy from other news organizations are consistent with this as Jeffrey said, that's major deal because this is his home turf. And it is so important because Barack Obama is in effect the challenger here. Barack Obama's the effective challenger and he's a younger man.
The issue is can the younger man hold his own in the same platform with the older guy with more experience? That's what John Kennedy did in 1960. It was the debate that drove the election and elected him because he held his own in that first debate.
COOPER: Our coverage continues. We're going to take a short break; a lot more to talk about. We'll be right back.
WOLF BLITZER, CNN ANCHOR, "THE SITUATION ROOM:" The reaction is continuing to come in from this first presidential debate here in the United States. Soledad O'Brien was watching and listening together with a focus group in the Heartland in Columbus, Ohio. They were watching their meters going down and up.
Explain to our viewers what was going on where you were and how these folks reacted.
SOLEDAD O'BRIEN, CNN SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT: I thought it was pretty fascinating to watch second by second, I mean, literally you could see a phrase that a candidate would say and see how it immediately resonated with the 32 people who are in this room roughly broken down evenly between registered Independents, registered Democrats and registered Republicans.
This was not a game changer. At the end, we were just doing a debrief a moment ago; they all said they felt frustrated. They felt like they didn't get their questions answered, that the candidates dodged, no one was willing to really stand up and speak out to the degree in which the economy is in dire shape and kind of just spell out the problems and some real solutions.
This is a kind of frustrated group tonight. A couple of things that I want to talk about though, few home runs; very rarely do we see the numbers get into the 80 percent, almost never, 100 percent, certainly never, so it wasn't a game changing kind of debate.
But when they talked about policy, when that was the focus, when they talked about their records; the numbers down immediately. The people here did not want to hear about a record that they felt they were pretty familiar with.
One of the other things that we saw was when the candidates got angry at each other or even just angry, like John McCain getting a little testy in the part I'm going to show you, the respondents, it was the first time we saw everybody, whether registered Democrat, Independent or Republican dialed down, take a look at part of his bite.
SEN. JOHN MCCAIN, (R) PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEE: I'm not going to set the White House visitors' schedule before I'm President of the United States. I don't even have a seal yet.
Dr. Kissinger did not say that he would approve of face to face meetings between the President of the United States and Ahmadinejad. He did not say that. He said there could be secretary level and lower level meetings. I've always encouraged them.
O'BRIEN: You can see him trending down there and soon it will fall off the cliff where everybody is in the 40 number mark right there, 40 percent.
We also noticed that whenever NATO and Russia were mentioned, people really wanted to hear more. Here's Senator Obama talking a little bit about foreign policy.
SEN. BARACK OBAMA, (D) PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEE: We have to have a president who is clear that you don't deal with Russia based on staring into his eyes and seeing his soul, you deal with Russia, based on what are the national security interests of the United States of America. And we have to recognize the way they've been behaving lately demands a sharp response from the international community and our allies.
O'BRIEN: The green line under Senator Obama was independents. There he was actually rating higher with Independents than with Democrats. We did notice that where they did connect was talking about energy, that was a big deal, automatic dial-up for either candidate whenever they mentioned energy and looking forward.
Barack Obama actually got more high marks from Independents, Democrats and Republicans across the board. McCain, strong Republican response but really not from Democrats or Independents very often.
What got laughs was frankly watching Jim Lehrer with a fair amount of frustration trying to get the candidates to answer the question about the tough decisions that they would make given this giant bailout that is looming.
Six people here of the 32 who are here tonight said that they're going to walk out the door decided because people here tonight had said they were undecided. They hadn't made up their minds.
Nathan Davis is one of them. Nathan, first of all, are you a registered what?
NATHAN DAVIS, REPUBLICAN VOTER: I'm a registered Republican.
O'BRIEN: You're a registered Republican and so walk out the door now deciding what?
DAVIS: I'm deciding that I'm voting for John McCain.
O'BRIEN: So you hear he's made up his decision.
Interesting to see though when you take a look at the people polled here, who won the debate? 61 percent say they thought Obama and 39 percent say they thought it was McCain.
And we also asked the question regardless of who you're voting, who do you think is going to win the election, 64 percent said Obama, 36 percent said McCain.
Again, that's a look in this room. How can we extrapolate it outside these walls? It's unclear yet, but it's certainly interesting to see. Almost everybody said they want to watch the next debate, they didn't hear enough. They're not ready to make a decision -- Wolf.
BLITZER: All right, fascinating material. We loved watching those lines go up and down second by second as you pointed out. Soledad, please thank those 32 voters in Ohio, a key battleground state.
O'BRIEN: I will pass it along. BLITZER: Roland Martin was watching with another group of influential Americans; the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation.
Roland, it's empty now, it was packed just a little while ago. I take it most of the people there supported Barack Obama. But tell us how they were reacting to what was going on.
ROLAND MARTIN, CNN CONTRIBUTOR: It was certainly this was definitely a pro-Obama crowd. The one line they really liked it when John McCain talked about his bracelet, then when Obama came back and said, John, I have a bracelet, too. This crowd really erupted. You really hit the groans when McCain came up with the POW story. It was pretty much like, ok, not again.
I will jump forward then come back a bit. I talked to a group of about eight or ten people afterwards, just regular folks, a lot of young voters as well. I said did you come away from this debate satisfied?
They clearly said, no. They said, you know what, the foreign policy stuff, that's nice and wonderful. But I'm sorry. I want to know about education, I want to know about health care. I want to know about the economy, I want to know about bailouts. And they said that should have taken center stage beyond anything else.
Sure, foreign policy stuff is important.
This crowd got really bored when they kept going on and on and on about pre-conditions and Iran and who you sit down and talk with. They crowd wanted to say, let's move on.
A couple things, Wolf, jumps out and I think that has to be said. First and foremost, McCain did a very effective job in using personal stories. Obama -- that is a weakness and he is going to have to do better in terms of using personal stories to connect with people so they can understand and feel him.
Also this. John McCain, how dare you come and give a debate and you don't even say the word middle class? Not only that, when Jim Lehrer was talking about the issues, McCain kept saying tax cuts, spending earmarks but he never gave me an impression as a voter that he was talking about pocketbook issues.
You can say Main Street but you have to convey Main Street. If I'm a McCain advisor, I'm going to say, hey guy, the other guy nailed you on tax cuts for the rich on supporting those people. You had better talk to real people on the ground if you want to give an effective argument when it comes to the economy.
BLITZER: Roland, thanks very much. Roland Martin is in Washington.
Ted Rowland is in Las Vegas. You were watching with Republicans, supporters of John McCain. I assume they thought John McCain just did fine.
TED ROWLANDS, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Absolutely, Wolf. No surprise there. Everybody here was very enthusiastic about John McCain, and specifically they thought that McCain was at ease throughout this debate. They thought that his experience showed through in talking about not only his experience with the economy, but also talking about foreign leaders and what he would do in terms of Iraq and the rest of it.
They had this sense, a lot of them said privately, they weren't quite sure what to expect coming in here. They thought that maybe McCain could get beat up. But they thought he had control of the debate from start to finish; obviously, a partisan crowd.
But I asked them what do you think an independent might have thought of this debate? They all walked away thinking, you know what, if I was undecided, I would look at McCain as a leader, not a guy who is reading about stuff as the panel has talked about but had lived these things.
They think this debate will go a long way trying to sway the Independents. Nevada is one of those states; they're going to need the base. Both sides are going to need independents because that's what's going to win it.
Very interesting, Republicans here think this was a big win and a lot privately weren't sure what to expect.
BLITZER: People are struggling in Nevada, especially homeowners in Nevada. It's a serious problem all over the country, in fact.
Ted thanks very much. Thank the folks for the hospitality there from all of us as well.
Anderson, you can see there's a lot of different reactions; not surprisingly. But these poll numbers are pretty interesting that shows that Barack Obama more than held his own. In fact, a lot of these people think he did better.
COOPER: It will be interesting to see in the next day or two, as the conversation and as focus turns back to Washington and bailout negotiations which are taking place right now, whether this has really any lasting impact or if it suddenly just disappears and 24 hours from now it just seems like it never happened at all.
TOOBIN: President Bush and the administration has said this is an absolute priority, that this has to be done, it's an emergency. But the two candidates didn't seem all that urgent about it.
COOPER: It's a point Candy Crowley made earlier that given all we've been showing on our programs for the last week and especially the last couple of day, for the first 40 minutes, though they talked about the economy, there was not a sense of the world has changed.
GERGEN: But Anderson, it may not -- five days from now, it may not seem like much happened tonight.
From John McCain's point of view, he had to make something happen tonight because the election started drifting toward Barack Obama. He needed to find a way tonight to reverse the momentum. I don't think he did that.
BORGER: I think that Obama tied John McCain to George W. Bush numerous times on the economy. When they go back to Washington now, this is President Bush's bailout plan. If John McCain supports it or is with Bush, he's going to be tied to Bush again.
Yes, Obama's going to have to support it, too, but he's going to say, this is Bush's plan and I'm bailing out a bad economic management.
GERGEN: Do you think McCain wants to oppose it?
BORGER: I thought McCain might oppose it until tonight, when he actually answered that question. It seemed like he was likely to.
BROWN: He said he was going to support it.
BORGER: Whatever it ended up being.
KING: He also made a very important point about the House Republicans?
KING: Which was that he, John McCain, for all the criticism he's received in Washington and I'll leave it to others to decide whether it's right or wrong. He slowed the process down.
The more you slow it down, the less likely the plan you get at the end is similar to the plan George W. Bush proposed at the beginning. Everyone now is trying to change the Bush plan so it will be less George Bush's plan tomorrow or Monday than it was three days ago.
BROWN: Who's going to do it that way? How many voters are going to see this is not entirely George Bush's plan?
KING: That's a legitimate question. But there is a -- they were very both cautious tonight because they don't know how this is going to turn out. Now you could make argument they're supposed to be the next President of the United States, take a stand, tell us what you want.
But both of them have issues and questions within their own caucus because remember, they want to be the next President of the United States. I was just out in Montana and the phones are ringing off the hook.
There are 435 members of the House and one-third of the United States Senate; they are up in November 4th, too. And they're not -- Not that they don't want Barack Obama to win or John McCain to win if they're Democrat or Republican, but guess what they're worrying about first? If they're on the ballot in November 4, they're worried about them before they worry about the guys running for president.
COOPER: I was going to bring in Candy Crowley, who's joining us from the debate hall. Candy, both men were asked by Jim Lehrer about what impact the financial crisis is going to have on their abilities to implement a lot of the programs. They say -- and neither really would go very far down that road.
CANDY CROWLEY, CNN SENIOR POLITICAL CORRESPONDENT: No or at all. I mean, McCain sort of suggested well, maybe he'd look at a spending freeze, which is always -- and then gave all the spending he would not freeze within that. It's just not in a campaign a question the candidates are going to ask.
You don't say, what are you going to cut because that's not what candidates want to do. Because every time you cut something, you are cutting funds from somebody out there. They're just not apt to answer that kind of question, even though they're edging closer to it.
I have to tell that on the campaign trail, Obama has been a little more forthcoming about, yes, there may be things I have to cut back. He hasn't said specifically but that's just not something that candidates do when they're campaigning, talk about the programs they're going to get rid of.
COOPER: John McCain claimed that he was suspending his campaign several days ago. It's a debatable point how much of his campaign -- was his campaign, John, ever suspended?
KING: He did pull his ads down. He did pull his ads down for about 72 hours, I believe. He didn't suspend his campaign. He moved his campaign.
Instead of doing rallies in Pennsylvania or Ohio, or anywhere else, he moved to Capitol Hill because he thought he needed to get involved in this. So he did not suspend his campaign. He just decided that it was more important for him politically or policy reasons or a little bit of both to be in Washington.
Can I jump in with a one quick point? This is interesting. Men scored it for John McCain 46 percent to 43 percent. Women scored it for Barack Obama 59 percent to 31 percent; A huge gender gap there.
This one jumps out at me though as more significant because -- this one jumps out at me as more significant because of the very question you just asked; among voters 50 and older; 48 percent for Obama, 40 percent for McCain. John McCain had doing well among older voters. They are the ones most stressed about this. The ones closest to retirement are the ones looking at their 401(k)s and looking at Wall Street and saying I spent 20 years of my life building a nest egg. What is going on in the world?
TOOBIN: It is the end of the road.
KING: 55 and older are the most reliable voters; 55 and older.
BORGER: Women are undecided voters. Women generally decide late and they're a large chunk of the undecided voters so that's very interesting. TOOBIN: Well, they are the core of the Democratic constituency.
BORGER: Right. But they're late deciders.
GERGEN: The other thing that came out of this poll was how people though on Iraq, they were much -- people give the evaluation they are much closer together.
I think Barack Obama got a real break tonight that the first half hour was about the economy. I think it implodes (ph) everything that happened in terms of voters' perceptions of what they saw because they're somewhat sympathetic to him than they are to McCain on the economic issues and he was crisper on that than he was, I thought.
COOPER: But tomorrow when both men go back on the campaign trail, I assume they both -- does John McCain go back to Washington or does he go back in the campaign trail?
They both go back to Washington?
Do they hold rallies? How does thing play out over the next couple of days? Do we even know?
KING: McCain is on a Sunday talk show on what we say, another network. That's all I will have to say. And otherwise going to get back involved in the negotiations or I think from more of a distance but follow the negotiations on the financial crisis. Both of them want to have this resolved. I think both of them realize they have a stake in its outcome.
We'll be back to the campaign rallies I would assume by Monday or Tuesday. Most of the direction now seems to suggest they would have a deal by the beginning of the week; if not over the weekend, by Monday or Tuesday. And remember we have the vice presidential debate.
COOPER: Do we know honestly what his role was in the negotiation? When he went back to Washington?
BORGER: Dana Bash would be able to tell you that. She did a terrific job covering this.
BORGER: Literally following him through the hallways. But the point is, we know that he met with House Republicans with whom he's not very close and never has been and because they, you know, they were against his immigration reform, campaign finance reform.
He said he wanted to give them a seat at the table, a voice. He met with Republican leadership but we don't know really whether he was involved in every jot of this, I do not believe that -- we know he wasn't.
COOPER: On the economy or on his campaign?
BORGER: Both. And to say Washington is broken and I'm going to fix it. And by the way, he didn't say that tonight.
KING: There was a three-way deal; Senate Democrats, Senate Republicans and House Democrats. And John McCain essentially sided with the House Republicans who said we are not going to be railroaded here. And they're the ones most worried about the election coming up in terms of members of Congress; the people who are most at risk are House Republicans.
Because it's a Democratic year right now and so John McCain sided with them and if nothing else slowed things down by saying it is not a deal until all four parties on board. That was his point at the White House. Is he saying no to this, yes to that policy? There's no indication of that at all.
COOPER: And if there was a deal, say Sunday so that when markets open on Monday and there's a deal in place, I mean, predict moving forward even the week ahead, how does it play out on the trail?
TOOBIN: I don't think it has much impact one way or the other.
KING: I don't think we know the answer to that.
BORGER: We don't know. It depends what's in it.
KING: If the markets rally for four weeks does that benefit one or the other? Does it make people happy if the markets go down? I don't think we know the answer to that.
BORGER: And the plan has grown increasingly unpopular every day.
BORGER: Every single day it's on downward trajectory. So we don't know where the public is going to be at that point or what's in it.
GERGEN: $700 billion and probably some bad headlines over the next few weeks on the economy are just not good news for John McCain. Let's just face it.
And, you know, we have the Palin/Biden debate coming up. That's going to be a tough one for them, too. You know, I think, this is a very, very important night even though it may fade in memory very quickly I think it was an opportunity that John McCain needed to take advantage of.
TOOBIN: I think that debate is very good news for the Obama campaign coming up because having seen Sarah Palin with Katie Couric, it is very hard for me to imagine Sarah Palin handling an evening like this for an hour and a half. That was a catastrophic awful embarrassment.
COOPER: Just to argue the counterpoint. Many people have underestimated her over the years in her elections in Alaska to their detriment. She has won albeit, a mayoral election and a governor of a small populated state.
TOOBIN: You know, these two guys whatever else you think of them, they're extremely knowledgeable and smart and experienced debaters. The interview that I saw with Katie Couric did not suggest that Sarah Palin is capable of that.
BROWN: but after that interviews, without question, expectations will be in her favor come.
TOOBIN: They couldn't be any lower that's for sure.
KING: No doubt about that.
COOPER: The question remains, will we ever see her do an interview again? That remains.
Let's toss it over to Wolf -- Wolf.
BLITZER: Thanks very much. We'd certainly love to do an interview with Sarah Palin here, as well.
Let me just do a little housekeeping. Over the course of this weekend, stay with CNN throughout the weekend. We'll have complete coverage of all the bailout negotiations on Capitol Hill. You want to know what's going on. We'll give you all the latest information. We'll also watch all the candidates, both of these candidates and the vice presidential candidates. Stay with us for that.
John King is going to have a special highlight wrap-up of this first presidential debate Saturday and Sunday night from 9:00 p.m. Eastern to 11:00 p.m. Eastern. You will want to see that.
I'll be back Sunday morning on "Late Edition, the Last Word on Sunday Talk" with complete coverage of all of this, as well.
The next debate, next Thursday, the vice presidential debate.
I'm Wolf Blitzer at CNN "Election Center." For all of us, thanks very much for watching.

This might seem like an unusual choice for a post but I recently got a children’s book from the library entitled Coppernickel Goes Mondrian by Dutch artist Wouter van Reek and it has resonated with me. The story is about Coppernickel, the protagonist, who sets out to find the future. To illustrate Coppernickel’s journey, van Reek appropriates Mondrian’s paintings as the backdrop for Coopernickel’s enlightenment. Coppernickel must literally travel through the evolution of Mondrian’s work to find the future.
Mondrian was known for his desire for the ‘new’ and was influenced by Cubism and jazz. His paintings did not replicate jazz or try to mimic Cubism in a literal way but instead he wanted to capture the radical experimentation and ‘newness’ that these mediums brought to their discipline. So it seems appropriate that the protagonist, who is in search for the future, meets Mr. Quickstep, an alias for Piet Mondrian. Mr Quickstep (keeping to character) is not interested in lolling around and wants to move ahead in finding the future as well. Coppernickel follows Mr. Quickstep to the city and we see the transformation of the landscape from angular trees to a urban grid like pattern. Wouter van Reek has created a narrative by mirroring the landscape with the evolution of Mondrian’s work and creating an imaginative illustration of a journey into the future.
I thought the idea of moving through one life’s work to find a future is a compelling idea and the illustrations are wonderful; however, the actual narrative was not very strong and I wonder if the text lost some of the whimsy when it was translated to English.
The story concludes with Coopernickel’s dog Tungsten stating that “I’ve always been ahead of my time’, which is an appropriate conclusion since Mondrian was ahead of his time and still continues to influence painting, graphic design, architecture, fashion to this day.
← But does it float?
Very Interesting! My tutor, on seeing my current project in progress involving trees and journeys, suggested I look at Mondrian’s Trees and I found your blog, isn’t life a series of synchronicities??

As Hurricane Irma churned toward Florida’s west coast area last week, USF Bulls did not just hunker down or evacuate in preparation for the monster storm.
USF volunteers helped the community fill in the gaps for a wide variety of emergency response needs, including staffing EOC call centers.
USF employees spent countless hours planning for and responding to the storm during the week, some returning home only to shower and others working remotely. Just one example of the logistics required: USF kept more than 2,000 Tampa students who stayed in their campus residence halls during the storm safe, secure and well-nourished, and also housed some students from USF St. Petersburg, USF Sarasota-Manatee, off-campus Tampa students, faculty, staff and families from all three campuses, as well as Hillsborough County Sheriff and University Police officers.
The USF community also reached out to the wider Tampa Bay community — caring for evacuees at area hurricane shelters, including the USF Sun Dome, the county’s largest shelter for people with special health care needs; fielding phone calls at emergency operations centers; and volunteering around the clock in partnership with local agencies to respond to a myriad disaster needs.
USF College of Public Health’s Elizabeth Dunn began working with emergency management undergraduate students to start disaster relief efforts last Wednesday when Tampa expected to be hit by a category 4 or 5 hurricane. County and city officials realized then they would need to rely on USF to help fill in the gaps in areas of need.
So, Dunn, director of the USF Community Emergency Response Team (CERT), collaborated with her CERT leaders, reaching out to organizations and colleges across USF to mobilize and, if needed, to train volunteers.
The response to CERT’s call to action was gratifying.
Some 200 USF students, faculty staff and alumni volunteered to support more than 25 agencies and organizations — including the emergency management, health, public works and code enforcement departments in Hillsborough County, City of Tampa Emergency Management, American Red Cross, EMS Transport, Hillsborough Area Regional Transit Authority, Sunshine Line, Aging Services, and Hillsborough County Pet Resource Center, to name a few.
Zachary Pruitt (right), PhD, MHA, visiting assistant professor in the Dept. of Health Policy and Management, is a Hillsborough County Medical Reserve Corp volunteer. During Hurricane Irma he worked as the night shift’s logistics manager at the Strawberry Crest High School special needs shelter. The site housed 260 medically needy clients and their families. In the recovery phase on Monday, he helped the day shift organize transportation home (if safe) or to the Sun Dome. Pruitt is pictured with Hillsborough County Department of Health employees, including his student from USF’s MBA program Kris Napier (left).
They served in many ways, including: managed and staffed 18 shelters, fielded calls at emergency operation centers and local TV stations to answer residents’ questions about safety, helped arrange transportation for those who needed to get to special needs shelters or the hospital, delivered food, water and supplies to communities in need, and helped county code enforcement assess wind and flood damage after the storm.
USF volunteers (including a couple of children of USF Bulls) delivered food and water to hurricane survivors at a distribution point in Dover on the weekend after Hurricane Irma. The USF Community Emergency Response Team worked with Hillsborough County Aging Services and other local CERTs to help manage the event.
Just a few examples: Jesse Casanova, who manages all international programs in the College of Public Health worked 13-hour shifts over five days at the emergency operations call center and was quickly made a supervisor. In addition to taking many calls from Spanish speakers, he provided triage between the shelters, the fire department and the police department, making sure people got where they needed to go without strife. COPH Associate Dean for Academic Affairs Kay Perrin, PhD, who is also a nurse, took hundreds of calls herself and was a resource for other volunteers who received health-related questions. Ellen Daley, PhD, associate dean for research and practice, and her family, opened and helped staff a shelter at Greco Middle School, while Joe Bohn, PhD, director of community engagement for COPH, provided a range of support and troubleshooting at two shelters, Middleton High School and Carrollwood Elementary School.
In Hurricane Irma’s aftermath, CERT helped mobilize and train public health students for Disaster Survivor Assistance Teams to identify those seeking resources for recovery, Dunn said.
Following the storm, USF public health students volunteering on a Disaster Survivor Assistance Team worked with code enforcement officers to assess flood and wind damage across Hillsborough County, including along the Alafia River.
Approximately 30 USF undergraduate students and some faculty from the Colleges of Nursing, Public Health and Pharmacy also contributed to the care of evacuees with special needs, said Douglas Holt, MD, director of the Hillsborough County Health Department. Holt arrived Friday morning to inspect and activate the USF Sun Dome—one of the county’s three special needs hurricane shelters he would open over the weekend.
COPH student volunteers set up cots before evacuees arrive at the Sun Dome.
On Friday evening there were about 250 evacuees. That number shot up to more than 800 evacuees by the height of the storm with cots and wheelchairs covering the main floor and overflowing into the halls.
As the hurricane raged outside the Sun Dome Sunday night, shelter volunteer Brad Perich, a USF epidemiology graduate student, filled in for a chaplain playing music to help ease frayed nerves. On an electronic keyboard, Perich performed the theme music from the TV series Game of Thrones, and for his finale he sang a rousing rendition of the song New York, New York.
Brad Perich, MSPH candidate in epidemiology at the College of Public Health, played music for evacuees and volunteers inside the Sun Dome at the height of Hurricane Irma.
In addition to Dr. Holt, MCOM faculty from the Department of Internal Medicine, Division of Infectious Disease and International Medicine volunteering at the Sun Dome included: Lyn Menezes, PhD; Marian Menezes, MD; Zack Gales, MD; Eric Zhao, MD; as well as international physician trainees (and one nurse trainee) from China: Shaopeng Yang, MD; Haibin Zhong, MD; and Shuming Xu, MD; and Xiao Tong Zheng, RN.

Stuffed bunnies, giant billboards with cartoon rabbits, festive decorations were everywhere. The anticipation to the new year was months in advance. One week before the actual eve, the fireworks started going off, every night. On the new year’s eve, fireworks were blasting around the clock all night long. It sounded like what I would imagine a warzone to sound like. Even though fireworks were technically illegal within the city, one would never know. Dudes would be running through the streets with chains of a hundred 4 inch firecrackers attached to a bamboo pole going off like machine guns. We wanted to join the fun.
One night after dinner and partying with Bennie and the girls, we all ended up at the house drunk and wanted to buy some of these illegal fireworks, so somehow someone showed us where to go in the neighborhood. We went to this elderly couple’s home and were taken to a back room that was stocked full of fireworks. Looked like a secret rebel artillery cache. We filled a couple cardboard boxes full of various mysterious explosives for like ten bucks and went back to the house to make some noise. Every building in the area was concrete or brick so there wasn’t really a danger of setting anything on fire, except ourselves of course. We had a pretty good buzz going, bombs going off everywhere in the hood. We’re lucky we didn’t blow our heads off, really.
There were these fireworks we got that looked like the cardboard tube from a toilet paper roll plugged up on both ends with a fuse sticking out of one end. We were supposed to have gotten a special launch pad for those but didn’t. The tube was placed on the ground upright with the fuse side down. You’d have to light the fuse and run. The thing would explode, shoot in the air a hundred feet or so and explode again. I remember one shot off sideways, flew just past my head before blowing up. Good fun. We couldn’t stop laughing and giggling for days it seemed.
When we arrived at the house that evening, Daniel was surprised that we all showed up. The shady business man who Kri met at the shady business meeting with Daniel earlier in the week, figured out that Kri wasn’t the rich American business man he was pretending to be to buy the radioactive isotope from the Russians, which was to make Daniel a lot of money as the middleman translator. The deal was called off, but that is another story Kri can tell better than me….

Working with a teacher at an Upstate NY Middle School, we helped introduce some 120 students in 7th and 8th grade to programming over 4 weeks. This was part of a controlled study to look at the impact of culture in the classroom. While everyone got to learn about the history of Adinkra, program a computer to draw them, and make T-Shirts, some students first worked with geometric shapes first.

So if you walk out your front door and find some Zucchini on your porch you will know why, It’s Sneak Some Zucchini Onto Your Neighbor’s Porch Day. I find nothing historical or even rational about this day but what the heck, just do it.
It would be best if you had grown it in your own garden but then, that might give it away to the neighbor you are sneaking it on to their porch. So what happens if you don’t have a garden? Well, you can go to the store and buy one. What happens if your neighbor does not have a porch, their mailbox should do the same trick. What happens if you don;t have a neighbor? Just go back to bed, tomorrows another day.
You know the drill, you make sure your neighbor can’t see you as you run up on the porch and deposit your zucchini. making sure the coast is clear for your get-a-way, you ring the door bell and then run as fast as you can to some predetermined place so you can watch with sheer joy the look on their faces when they find your gift.
If a dog answers the door I doubt they are going to fully appreciate your gesture but give them a moment and they will figure out some use for their new found toy. Heck, they might even return it to you!
And if you want to be nice about it, leave more than one so they can cut it up and serve it for dinner… no sense in wasting that fine prize!. I think this actually works with nearly any fruit or vegetable. I would not leave a cow or sheep though, things could get a little messy and your neighbor may choose to park a tank on your porch the next day.
How to celebrate – Go to the store and buy a well developed zucchini. Choose a neighbor carefully, one with a good sense of humor would be best. Make sure you pick a time they are at home so you can watch the delight and joy they receive from your gift!

Remember to listen. Remember to love.
It was probably about 30 degrees or colder outside as I was driving to Burton two Sundays ago. I got off at the exit like I have done many times in the past and just like many other times there was someone standing on the corner with a sign.
I usually don’t carry cash and sometimes when I do I have excuses like “The light will turn green at any moment” or “I’m too far away from them.” Sometimes I’m not even phased by seeing them there. I’m sad to admit that that’s how I think sometimes.
But this time was different. I remembered I had cash on me. It was only $6, but it was something I thought to myself.
The man holding the handmade, cardboard sign was probably in his 60s I guessed. He had round glasses with thick lenses. He looked cold. He must have felt cold.
Image was taken in downtown Flint in November.
You could tell he was thankful … for $6. He seemed kind and lost. As the light turned green I wished I could have had more time with him. My heart broke for him, not knowing where he would go that night or if he had family to go to.
I’m sure he had a story. I, unfortunately, did not get a chance to hear it. So I am not writing this to tell you his story, his struggles, his passions, his hope for the future. I am writing it as a reminder that life is not about rushing around and getting from point A to point B. Even a smile, some spare change, a moment of your time can change someone else’s day, as well as your own.
I thought about that man all day and still think about him. I wish I could have heard his story, gotten to know his heart.
Don’t take opportunities for granted. You don’t know where it will take you or what you will learn.
I had someone ask me what I thought he did with that money. You know, I have no idea. But really, it doesn’t matter to me. We are called to love. End of story.
I challenge you to go out today, tomorrow and the next day and simply make an effort to show kindness to someone who might normally show it to. Ask someone how their day is. Share a meal. Donate your time, resources or skills. Love. Listen.
Check out some of the other stories from the Flint Stories Project.

The golf industry has faced substantial economic challenges over the past year. Many golf course owners and operators find themselves deep in the rough and struggling to stay in the game. In states such as California, Arizona and Florida, about five percent of those states’ golf courses have exhibited overt signs of financial trouble and the number of “at risk” courses is closer to 15 percent. Revenues have declined due to lower membership and green fees at most golf facilities.
Right now may be the best time ever for golf courses to take a good look in the mirror and review how their maintenance philosophy impacts the bottom line. There may never be a better opportunity to move forward and gather momentum towards a more sustainable approach to managing golf course operations. In fact, it is foreseeable that the golf industry in North America will see a paradigm shift towards focusing on golf course playability, rather than lush conditions and overindulgent cosmetics.
One of the best ways to define firm and fast conditions may be simply to talk about irrigation regimes. The deep and infrequent irrigation philosophy, written about by Mr. Ed Miller in a 1988 Green Section Record article, exemplified firm and fast playing conditions. In that article, Mr. Miller stated that irrigation was employed every three or four days by summing the computer-based evapotranspiration (ET). In Carefree, Arizona, where Mr. Miller was the superintendent at Desert Forrest Golf Club, the sum of three or four days’ worth of ET may be 1 to 1 ½” of water. Clearly, the irrigation system was able to apply that much water in one evening, and the soil conditions were such that an excess of one inch of water could be applied without surface runoff. Mr. Miller went on to state that his goal was to saturate the top 10 to 12” of the soil newsContentzone with each irrigation event.
Bandon Dunes in Bandan, Ore.
The Club at Clear Creek in Minden, Nev.
Probably the quintessential firm and fast golf course is Bandon Dunes in Bandon, Ore. Bandon Dunes was built on sand dunes in the northwestern part of the U.S. and grows fine fescue turf on tees, fairways and greens. Less than $20,000 per year is spent on fertility, and less than $10,000 on pesticides. The courses benefit from a strict cart policy, restricting carts to only 2 per day. It is interesting to hear that the majority of golfers appreciate the firm and fast conditions; however, like any golf course, they are not immune to golfer complaints. Some golfers don’t like the tight lies, and some came to the resort expecting lush, green, and resort-like conditions.

Bretheren, for what things soever were written, were written for our learning: that through patience and the comfort of the scriptures, we might have hope. Now the God of patience and of comfort grant you to be of one mind one towards another, according to Jesus Christ: That with one mind, and with one mouth, you may glorify God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Wherefore receive one another, as Christ also hath received you unto the honour of God. For I say that Christ Jesus was minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made unto the fathers. But that the Gentiles are to glorify God for his mercy, as it is written: Therefore will I confess to thee, O Lord, among the Gentiles, and will sing to thy name. And again he saith: Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with his people. And again: Praise the Lord, all ye Gentiles; and magnify him, all ye people. And again Isaias saith: There shall be a root of Jesse; and he that shall rise up to rule the Gentiles, in him the Gentiles shall hope. Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing; that you may abound in hope, and in the power of the Holy Ghost.
Out of Sion the loveliness of His beauty: God shall come manifestly. Gather ye together His Saints to Him, Who have set His covenant before sacrifices.
Alleluia, alleluia. (Ps 21:1) I rejoiced at the things that we said to me: We shall go into the house of the Lord. Alleluia.
from your body and from the pleasures of the senses, so that nothing seems to be left in you but your soul, which you are concerned about exclusively and which is the only object of your care. For you are destined by God to apply yourselves, like the holy angels, only to what refers to his service and to the care of souls. In you, as Saint Paul says, the outer man must decay, so that the inner man may be renewed day by day. You must become like the angels and like them, as the same Apostle says, not consider things that are visible but only those that are invisible, for, he continues, the former are temporary and pass away, whereas the latter are eternal and will be forever the object of our affection.
As we continue through the Season of Advent, let us all remember in our prayers those who are suffering or who have died as a result of terrorist atrocities throughout the world; especially those murdered in San Bernadino, California and Paris; let us also pray for all those who are suffering, both Christian and Muslim, in Syria and Iraq at the hands of the D’aesh terrorists and their murderous mediæval ideology.
Let us also pray that through the efforts of not just our own security services but those of our allies the world may be kept safe from the scourge of terrorism and religious fanaticism.

Both recipients of Schulich Leader Scholarships who are attending the University of Waterloo this year are top students: Emily Pass, of Charlottetown, graduated with a 100 per cent average from high school and Oakville’s Amanda Rampertab scored a 95 per cent.
But it’s the way they contributed to their communities that really distinguishes them - Pass has already founded her own business, won a provincial science fair, competed in ringette at the national level, played clarinet in her school’s junior orchestra and was the editor of a literary newspaper.
For her part, Rampertab was part of the first Canadian team to win the FIRST Lego League World Championships. She went on to win the world championships again in 2013 and her championship robot was recently inducted into the Smithsonian Institute as part of an exhibit currently touring the United States.
Like Pass, Rampertab is also an accomplished musician, playing trumpet in her school’s senior concert and jazz bands, while mentoring Grade 9 students in the junior band.
Pass, whose scholarship is worth $60,000, will join Waterloo’s Department of Physics and Astronomy. Rampertab, awarded an $80,000 scholarship, will take her robotic passion to a new level as a student in the Department of Mechanical and Mechantronics Engineering.
Seymour Schulich, Canadian business leader and philanthropist, created the scholarship program three years ago, which encourages high school graduates to embrace science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) disciplines in their future careers. Scholarship winners are known as Schulich Leaders and this year there were 40 selected from 1,147 nominees.
Open to every high school, secondary school and CEGEP across Canada, Schulich Leader Scholarships recognize Canadian students who plan to study one of the STEM disciplines during their undergraduate years at university. These students demonstrate two of the following attributes: academic excellence, outstanding community, business or entrepreneurial leadership or financial need.
Pass has also helped raise money for a school in Kenya and Rampertab was a founding member of her high school’s Social Justice league.
Students pursuing programs in science, technology, engineering or mathematics at the University of Waterloo recognized with $12,000 scholarships.

Metro Nashville's government access TV channel is nearly tripling the number of public meetings that will have closed captioning.
In the past, the Metro 3 channel provided the service for four public meetings, which didn’t sit right with councilwoman Sheri Weiner. To increase support for citizens who are deaf or hard of hearing, Weiner proposed a $20,300 amendment to the Metro budget that would allow the Metro Information Technology Services to boost the four closed-captioned meetings to 11. The council agreed.
The change became effective Wednesday in which the following seven consecutive meetings will support closed captioning: the Board of Education; Metro Council committees that meet in the council chamber; the Civil Service Commission; the Employee Benefit Board; the Sports Authority; the Traffic and Parking Commission; and the Transportation Licensing Commission.

A parent’s first IEP meeting with the public school system is significant. A parent must be ready! This meeting sets the tone of the relationship with the public school for many years to come!
Parents need to take documents to share about the extent of the disability that legitimize the amount and rate of service needed; especially for physical, speech and occupational therapies.
Some school districts lead parents to believe that since the child is on track academically that no services are needed; documents can indicate otherwise! Many times school offer much less than what the child received in First Steps! And the school legitimizes it by saying “that’s all that is available”. Parents can make breakthroughs in these “rubber stamped” meetings!
Parents who seem “nice” and “agreeable” can be easily taken advantage of by the school, and the parent not realize it.
Be ready! Have an IEP Center advocate help you prepare for Early Childhood school meetings.
Special Education Parent’s Advocacy Link LLC dba The IEP Center™ provides information to parents regarding the problems of children with disabilities. We are civil rights We are not attorneys and do not give advice. Consult an attorney.
We help parents prepare for school meetings and also go to mediation and IEP meetings with parents.

On 14 September Ocean & Earth Science celebrated the launch of its new miniature remotely-operated underwater vehicle (mini-ROV) facility at a reception on the National Oceanography Centre Southampton quayside.
The mini-ROV, which is a joint venture between the University and the Natural History Museum, is a state-of-the-art tool in marine research and environmental consultancy, and the first of its kind in the UK to be equipped with a high definition video system for seafloor observation. It can dive to a depth of 300 metres and carry experiments to and from the seabed.
The new vehicle will also help Ocean & Earth Science to share their work with the public, through events where video is streamed from the seafloor to audiences ashore. The first of these events will take place on September 23 with a live link from Southampton Water to the David Attenborough Studio at the NHM in London.
We are excited to have this new facility for teaching, which enhances the University's position at the forefront of marine science education.

It’s such a simple trick!
Another trick that I found recently is that take-out boxes can actually unfold to make a serving plate.
I still have to try this.
My second semester has just started up, so I’ve been busy. But this blog has still been on my mind, like a long lost love… Okay, just kidding.
Just because I haven’t been blogging lately doesn’t mean that Life Hacks haven’t been on my mind. I am still on the hunt for life hacks to try out, and I’m trying to think of different things I can post on this blog that don’t necessarily have to be about Life Hacks. But don’t worry. I will stay true to my purpose. The great thing is, Life Hacks can happen any time of the year, holidays or not.
Anyway, I can’t help but feel like I have been able to accomplish a few things this year, which I am proud of.
So I leave you with this question: What have you accomplished this year?
I’m sure you can think of at least one thing… and sometimes, one thing is just enough.
I leave you with this video. It’s a trick for cooking hot dogs from CHOW.com . I am definitely going to try this myself, and I will let you guys know how it goes!
Last week, I talked about doing little things that can relieve stress. I failed to mention doing one thing that’s probably my favorite: doing my nails. There’s a big box that’s filled with nail polishes and other manicure/pedicure supplies that my roommates and I all share in our apartment. At one point in the semester, my roommates and I would do our nails at least every week, and we’d all come up with different designs and color combinations. There’s definitely some therapy that comes from focusing in on doing something meticulous. Maybe guys feel the same way when they’re shaving, or when they’re trying to fix something. Doing something to get your mind off things, but still having a tangible result is definitely a good stress reliever.
I have an HTC Status. It’s known for having the Facebook button. Yes, I am team Android, but I do show love to those who are Apple fans (I am the proud owner of a MacBook Pro).
Smart phones can do almost anything these days. They’re basically mini-computers in the palm of your hand. Today I’m going to give you tips on how to make good use of your phone, without having to buy any extra devices. Whether you’re team Android or team iPhone, these tips are for you!
I got some of my ideas from this HTC Blog post, click here to check it out!
For the longest time, there has been a bottle of olive oil in my apartment’s medicine cabinet, and for the longest time, I wondered why it was there. I have come to accept that my roommates have different habits and tendencies than me, so like other nuances at the apartment, I didn’t think much of it. I have gotten numerous life hacking tips that have all pointed me to one amazing product: olive oil. Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) is one product that my roommate swears by. What I didn’t realize was that I too have utilized the amazing abilities of olive oil as well.
Why olive oil? It is all-natural, hypoallergenic, and fortified with antioxidants, and vitamins A and E. Check out OliveOilSource.com and ThePassionateOlive.com for more information on olive oil and its health and beauty benefits!
In the spirit of the Thanksgiving, I’d like to share a life hack that will definitely come in handy for the next few days!

This red-light camera at Jersey Avenue and 18th Street in Jersey City is fifth on the top 10 list for red-light camera citations in New Jersey.
We have found the meanest red light in New Jersey.
It was almost two years ago when Alice Henry had her first encounter with it and she still tries to avoid the intersection that made her $85 poorer.
"I either try to go a different route, or I go and stop for 10 seconds at the traffic light — even if it’s a yellow light," she said of the approach where she received a red-light camera citation for a rolling right turn.
Henry might be evading it, but plenty of other motorists are getting nailed.
The red-light camera at eastbound Springdale Road and Route 70 in Cherry Hill has snared more violators than any location in the state this year, with nearly 11,890 citations through October.
At $85 per ticket, that adds up to just over $1 million in 10 months.
The Star-Ledger obtained lists from red-light camera vendors Redflex and American Traffic Solutions of the top 10 intersections for red-light camera violations in New Jersey.
The Cherry Hill intersection, next to a Camden County College campus and about 15 miles east of Philadelphia, came in at both first and eighth on the list (there are two cameras at the intersection, and a vehicle can get a ticket for either traveling straight through a red light or for a rolling right turn on red).
Tickets are $85 or, in the case of "safe corridor" intersections, $140.
Second on the list is northbound Maple Avenue and Morris Avenue (Route 82) in Springfield, with 7,713 citations between Jan. 1 and Oct. 31 of this year. In third place is southbound McCarter Highway and Market Street in Newark, near Newark Penn Station, with 7,473 citations, followed by southbound Route 1 and Plainfield Avenue in Edison, with 6,979 citations.
Three Jersey City approaches occupy the next three spots — southbound Jersey Avenue and 18th Street (6,813 citations) came in fifth place, followed by southbound Merseles Street at Montgomery Street (6,573 citations) and eastbound Newark Avenue/Route 7 Ramp and Route 9/Wallis Avenue (6,309 citations).
Eighth is the westbound approach of Springdale Road and Route 70 in Cherry Hill, with the last two spots on the top 10 list occupied by southbound Routes 1&9/Edgar Road and East Grand Avenue in Rahway (5,877 citations) and southbound New Brunswick Avenue and Stelton Road in Piscataway (5,649 citations).
The controversial cameras are entering their final year of a 5-year pilot program, and, depending on how you look at it, the traffic light bulb is either half-lit or half-dark.
People who get caught by them call them a money grab for municipalities, and say nearly 12,000 violations at one intersection approach in 10 months is proof that the automated traffic cops have run amok in the state.
"We’ve heard from people in my office, I’ve heard from people on the street, who would come up and say it’s a huge impact for them," said state Assemblyman Declan O’Scanlon (R-Monmouth), a vocal critic of the red-light cameras. "I had one guy who was almost in tears, who’s got a few drivers in his family, and (the violations) were all right-turn-on-red tickets, there were no straight-throughs. They got like three or four in a short period of time, and that was huge money for them. They couldn’t pay their rent because of it."
Towns say the money helps their coffers while making roads safer, and that there is fewer than one violation per hour at the vast majority of approaches.
Charles Territo, senior vice president of communications, marketing and public affairs for American Traffic Solutions, said nearly nine of 10 receiving a violation have not received a second.
"Red-light safety cameras in New Jersey change the behavior of nine out of 10 drivers who receive a violation," he said. "If a pharmaceutical company invented a drug that cured terminal illnesses in 9 out of 10 patients they’d receive the Nobel Prize."
Territo said the average number of violations issued per camera each month in New Jersey has fallen by nearly 60 percent since September 2010, and noted that on average, cameras in New Jersey now capture fewer than one violation every four hours.
Jody Ryan, director of communications for Redflex Traffic Systems, which like American Traffic Solutions is based in Arizona, noted that accidents are down in Edison, Englewood Cliffs and Newark.
"People are changing the way they drive, and the cameras are working," said Jack Nata, manager of Newark’s Traffic and Signals Division.
Nata said he would like to see the red-light cameras expanded in the city. With 19 intersections, Newark has the most of any city in New Jersey. Nata said he would like to see around 50.
Overall, New Jersey has cameras at 76 intersections in 25 towns in half of the state’s counties: Bergen, Camden, Essex, Gloucester, Hudson, Mercer, Middlesex, Ocean, Passaic, Union and Warren.
Most of the intersections have cameras at more than one approach. A handful have them at all four.
Most of Newark’s red-light camera intersections have two cameras.
Nata said the approach at McCarter Highway and Market Street, which had 7,473 red-light camera violations through Oct. 31 of this year, had 10,132 during the same time frame last year.
"We’re hoping they still come down more," he said. "(Making money) is not the main goal — that’s an outcome that happens."
Broad and Market streets, once the most dangerous intersection in Newark, is down to fewer than 10 violations a month, Nata said.
Steve Carrellas, New Jersey representative for the National Motorists Association driving rights group, said the reduction of red-light camera violations at some locations is not necessarily an indicator of safety.
"It just means people are avoiding the intersection," he said.
"You approach it with caution," he said. "A lot of caution."

The German 300-level core requirements underwent an exciting overhaul, aimed at introducing greater flexibility, so that we can better meet your interests and scheduling needs.
GER 300: Encounters in Language and Culture (6 units) will be replaced by GER 303: German through Contemporary Media (3 units) (effective fall 2019).
GER 301: German Cultural and Literary History and GER 315: German for Professional Purposes were updated and given new titles to reflect the changes (effective spring 2019).
GER 313: Studies in Genre will become GER 311: German through Performance (effective spring 2020).
GER 302 and 310 will remain the same.
GER 300 and 301 are no longer required or pre-requisites for 400-level courses.
Instead, students can chose 9 units from all available 300-level courses taught in German, at least 3 of which should come from GER 301, 303, or 311.
Students who began their German major or minor under a previous catalog will be able to choose whether to follow the requirements of that catalog or the new set of requirements. The Director of Undergraduate Studies can advise on the best choice in individual cases.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Thanks to a big stroke of luck 200 million years ago, dinosaurs beat out a fearsome group of creatures competing for the right to rule the Earth, scientists said on Thursday.
Dinosaurs appeared about 230 million years ago, during the Triassic Period, and competed for 30 million years with a group of reptiles called crurotarsans, cousins of today’s crocodiles that grew to huge sizes and looked a lot like dinosaurs.
Many scientists believed dinosaurs were simply superior to crurotarsans and fared better because the earliest dinosaurs walked on two legs, not four, and because they may have been warm-blooded.
But scientists led by Steve Brusatte of Columbia University and American Museum of Natural History in New York conducted an extensive review of fossils and found that the two groups were evolving at roughly the same pace and the crurotarsans actually had a larger range of body types, diets and lifestyles.
The dinosaurs won out, Brusatte concluded, because some type of planetary calamity 200 million years ago — dramatic climate change or maybe a large meteorite impact — nearly wiped out the crurotarsans while sparing the dinosaurs.
The event that toppled the crurotarsans 200 million years ago enabled dinosaurs to become the reigning form of land animals for a long time, until their luck ran out too. An asteroid struck Earth 65 million years ago and doomed the dinosaurs.
The crurotarsans were a fabulous bunch of monsters.
Some called phytosaurs looked and lived a lot like today’s crocodiles, staying submerged in rivers or lakes until attacking a victim. The North American phytosaur Smilosuchus grew to 39 feet long.
Others called rauisuchians were land predators with four powerful legs, massive skulls and flesh-tearing teeth. South America’s Fasolasuchus grew to 33 feet long.
Both were far more impressive than the typical dinosaur predator of the time like Coelophysis, a relatively lightly built, two-legged hunter about 10 feet long.
The dinosaur plant eaters of the time like Plateosaurus were getting big, but were less varied than the plant-eating crurotarsans such as the heavily armoured aetosaurs.
“If we were standing around in the late Triassic period 210 million years ago and were asked what group is going to go on and take over the world, I think a reasonable gambler would say the crurotarsans. It’s not that the dinosaurs weren’t doing well. The crurotarsans were doing more,” Brusatte said.

I felt sure there must be another reality in which she had prevailed. So why had I and so many unwilling been tossed into this one? Was there something here I needed to learn?
So I grasped at straws, hoping this new reality under a Trump presidency wouldn’t be as bad as I feared.
Perhaps Trump the con artist, playing to the crowd all along, didn’t believe the worst of what he had said and would not pursue the worst of his claims. Perhaps now that he had won and didn’t have to fool anyone any more, his once liberal leanings would emerge–a way to pay back all the Republicans who hadn’t supported him or believed he could win.
Sadly, the belief that this all had been a scam to win the biggest ego prize ever was the only source of hope I could muster for a while. I just prayed that despite this he would keep his promise to help those who have felt left out of the American dream. I hoped he had enough integrity to do at least that much.
A faint hope, but it was all I had.
Until I heard Hillary’s concession speech. And then I cried tears of gratitude. I had never been so proud of her–and of us, as Americans–as I was then.
I knew then that hate hadn’t trumped love, as I had feared when I woke. Even in this seemingly alternate reality where Trump was president.
If this brave, strong, and loving woman could keep an open mind and look with hope and optimism to the future–despite her tremendous loss, then so could I.
Maybe that’s what I needed to learn.
Thank you, Hillary. I can feel my heart starting to heal already.

The end of capitalism has often been imagined as a crisis of epic proportions. Perhaps a financial crisis will occur that is so vast not even government finances can rescue the system. Maybe the rising anger of exploited individuals will gradually congeal into a political movement, leading to revolution. Might some single ecological disaster bring the system to a halt? Most optimistically, capitalism might be so innovative that it will eventually produce its own superior successor, through technological invention.
But in the years that have followed the demise of state socialism in the early 1990s, a more lackluster possibility has arisen. What if the greatest threat to capitalism, at least in the liberal West, is simply lack of enthusiasm and activity? What if, rather than inciting violence or explicit refusal, contemporary capitalism is just met with a yawn? From a political point of view, this would be somewhat disappointing. Yet it is no less of an obstacle for the longer-term viability of capitalism. Without a certain level of commitment on the part of employees, businesses run into some very tangible problems, which soon show up in their profits.
Resistance to work no longer manifests itself in organized voice or outright refusal, but in diffuse forms of apathy and chronic health problems.
Few private-sector managers are required to negotiate with unions any longer, but nearly all of them confront a much trickier challenge, of dealing with employees who are regularly absent, unmotivated, or suffering from persistent, low-level mental-health problems. Resistance to work no longer manifests itself in organized voice or outright refusal, but in diffuse forms of apathy and chronic health problems. The border separating general ennui from clinical mental-health problems is especially challenging to managers in 21st century workplaces, seeing as it requires them to ask personal questions on matters that they are largely unqualified to deal with.
Lack of engagement from the workforce also registers as a problem for governments, inasmuch as it bites into economic output, and in doing so hits tax receipts. In societies with socialized health insurance and unemployment insurance, the problem is far more serious. There is a growing economic problem of individuals dropping out of work due to some often ill-defined personal and intangible problem, then gradually sinking into a more generalized inactivity. These people may show up at the doctor’s office on a regular basis, making complaints about undiagnosable pains and problems. This is often because they have nobody else to speak to and are lonely. Unemployment undermines their sense of self-worth, and inactivity brings various other psychosomatic problems with it. A general deflation of psychological and physical capacity is the end result, which in many societies produces costs for the state to pick up.
The causes of mental-health problems are obviously complex and do not lie simply in the economy any more than they do in brain chemistry. But it is the way in which these problems manifest themselves in the workplace, threatening productivity as they do so, that has placed them among the greatest problems confronting capitalism today. It is the principal reason that the World Economic Forum is now so concerned about our health the happiness industry and happiness. The murky gray area separating workplace disaffection from a clinical disorder has required managers, and the human-resources profession especially, to equip themselves with various new ways of intervening in the minds, bodies, and behaviors of their workforce. The term most commonly used to describe the goal of these new interventions is “well-being,” which encompasses the happiness and health experienced by employees.
If capitalism is being ground down by the chronic, unspecifiable alienation of those it depends on, then surely solving that problem may also open up possibilities for political reform?
There is a clear economic incentive for managers to consider the positive attitude of employees. Endless studies have shown that workers are more productive when they feel happy, possibly by as much as an additional 12 percent of output. And in workplaces where they feel respected, listened to, consulted, and involved, they are more likely to work harder, and less likely to take sick leave. Where employees have no say in how their work is organized, this is known to generate some of the psychological problems that now concern businesses, up to and including mental health problems. By emphasizing well-being, managers hope to turn a vicious circle of disengagement and ill-health into a virtuous one of active, fulfilling commitment.
It is tempting to be cynical about some of this: The manager is after all still attempting to extract effort from the worker. But why not also recognize the opportunity contained in this current business anxiety? If capitalism is being ground down by the chronic, unspecifiable alienation of those it depends on, then surely solving that problem may also open up possibilities for political reform? The hard economic costs that ennui now places upon employers and governments mean that human misery has shown up as a chronic problem that elites cannot simply shove aside. The question of what type of work, and what type of workplace organization, might generate a real sense of commitment and enthusiasm on the part of workers should not be abandoned altogether.
The difficulty is that the enthusiasm managers are seeking to promote is no less slippery than the psychosomatic problems they are seeking to avoid. A report commissioned by the U.K. government on the importance of employee engagement found it impossible to say exactly what this gaseous entity consists of. Expert insights that “you sort of smell it” and “know it when you see it” confirmed a shortage of objectivity on this particular issue. Managers and policymakers yearn for a hard science of workplace happiness. But it is with that sort of hard science that many of our problems begin.
Confronted by other people’s problems which are both ambiguous and personal, senior decision-makers have a tried and tested coping method: bring in the external contractors and consultants. There is copious political and market demand for experts willing to pronounce and act upon the well-being of others, on the basis of some presumed scientific authority. These sit on a spectrum between qualified medical practitioner and ill-informed bully. When handling painful issues of other people’s health and happiness, outsiders have the great advantage of being able to duck full moral accountability and, if necessary, withdraw from the job altogether. Jeremy Bentham’s vision of a “National Charity Company,” a corporation established by the state to put people to work, foreshadowed today’s murky world of workfare that lies in the unaccountable gaps between market and state.
In its bid to push people off reliance on the welfare state and the happiness industry into the labor market, the U.K. government appointed the public service outsourcing company Atos to conduct individual “work capability assessments” of individuals. As this agenda was ramped up by the Conservative-led government from 2010 onwards, it led to a number of tragedies and acts of cruelty. These included the suicide of a 53-year-old blind and agoraphobic man, Tim Salter, only weeks after his benefits were stopped in 2013, following an assessment by Atos that he was able to work. Atos also found individuals suffering brain damage and terminal cancer to be “fit for work.” In 2011, Britain’s General Medical Council investigated twelve doctors working for Atos as disability assessors, due to allegations that they were not performing their duty of care towards patients.
happy, healthy and, above all, rich.
To close down every route for the avoidance of work, doctors have had to be conscripted into this policy agenda too. A U.K. government report published in 2008 complained that ‘the fallacy persists that illness is incompatible with being at work’, which doctors were guilty of peddling. A government campaign was launched to dissuade doctors of this, and their official “sick notes” (which were once signed by doctors to declare that an individual shouldn’t work) were replaced by “fit notes,” requiring doctors to describe the remaining ways in which an individual could still be employed, despite any illnesses or disabilities. Doctors were encouraged to sign a draft statement scripted by the state, agreeing that work is good for people.
At the opposite end of the labor market, things look a lot sunnier, but somehow no less brutal. While Atos, A4e, and Ingeus grapple with the apparent sluggishness and pessimism of the poor, high-end wellness consultants make large sums of money by teaching corporate elites how to maintain themselves in a state of optimal psychosomatic fitness. Classes such as Jim Loehr’s “Corporate Athlete Course” ($4,900 for two and a half days) introduce executives to elite “energy investment” strategies, which will enable them to achieve a high performance level of physical and mental wellness. The American productivity guru Tim Ferriss sells advice on how senior managers should best employ their own brains over the course of the working day, following an earlier career selling dubious brain-enhancing nutritional supplements.
This consultancy circuit moves seamlessly among various apparently separate domains of expertise. The psychology of motivation blends into the physiology of health, drawing occasionally on insights from sports coaches and nutritionists, to which is added a cocktail of neuroscientific rumors and Buddhist meditation practices. Various notions of fitness, happiness, positivity, and success bleed into one another, with little explanation of how or why. The idea which accompanies all of this is that there is one ideal form of human existence: hardworking, happy, healthy and, above all, rich. A science of elite perfectibility is built on the back of this heroic capitalist vision. The flip side of this, and the real driving force behind many executive wellness programs, is a set of well-researched risks run by highly competitive businessmen, colloquially known as “burn-out,” which includes higher chances of heart attacks, strokes, and nervous breakdowns.
Of course, the majority of adults living in capitalist societies lie somewhere between the purview of Atos et al. and that of the executive wellness gurus. Is there no scope for a less individualized vision of well-being across the middle swath of the labor market? Possibly there is. But here too are some brutally competitive injunctions offered to those managers worrying about worker disengagement and its impact upon productivity.
One of America’s leading workplace happiness gurus, entrepreneur Tony Hsieh, argues that the most successful businesses are those which deliberately and strategically nurture happiness throughout their organizations. Businesses should employ chief happiness officers to ensure that nobody escapes workplace happiness. But if this sounds like the recipe for inclusive community, it isn’t. Hsieh advises businesses to identify the 10 percent of employees who are least enthusiastic towards the happiness agenda, and then lay them off. Once this is done, the remaining 90 percent will apparently become “super-engaged,” a finding which is open to more than one psychological interpretation.
There is now even an “optimal” way of taking a break from work, and simply going for a walk can be viewed as a calculated act of productivity management.
As the science of happiness has moved closer to the front line of profit-maximizing business, something curious has happened to it. For Bentham, happiness was something which resulted from certain activities and choices. But in the context of business consultancy and individual coaching, happiness looks altogether different. Suddenly, it is represented as an input to certain strategies and projects, a resource to be drawn upon, which will yield more money in return. The premise that money yields a proportionate quantity of happiness is spun on its head, suggesting instead that a quantity of happiness will yield a certain amount of money.
One of a new generation of positive psychology management gurus, Shawn Achor, outlines a range of data in his book, The Happiness Advantage, suggesting that happier people achieve more in their careers. They get promoted more, sell more (if they work in marketing) and enjoy better health. Happiness becomes a form of capital on which they can fall back amidst the turbulence of an uncertain economy. It is, as the title of his book suggests, a source of advantage in the battle to succeed. If this was the limit of his wisdom, Achor might sound like a fatalist: Optimists are just luckier in all regards than pessimists.
The crucial supplement to the data is that we are all, supposedly, capable of influencing our own happiness levels. Happiness, Achor tells us, is a choice. We can either choose to be happy (and consequently successful) or choose to be unhappy (and suffer the consequences). Neuroscientist Paul Zak, another leading speaker and consultant on these issues, suggests that we view our happiness like a “muscle,” which needs exercising regularly in order to keep it in full working order, for when we need it. Lurking within this highly individualized agenda is the capacity to blame people for their own misery and failure, both of which are matters that they have evidently failed to act upon adequately.
What does “happiness” even mean, once it is being conceived of in this way? It seems to imply a source of energy and resilience, but always directed towards goals other than being happy, such as status, power, employment, and money. In the face of workplace ennui and psychological stagnation, the motivational gurus simply demand more willpower. By this account, the activities that might result in happiness, such as socializing or relaxing, are only valuable to the extent that they might restore brain and body to a level of fitness, from which they can then be propelled forwards to the next business challenge. This particular version of utilitarianism means expanding corporate rationality further into everyday life, such that there is now even an “optimal” way of taking a break from work, and simply going for a walk can be viewed as a calculated act of productivity management. What is going on? The misery of working people is a serious political issue. How did it become captured in this way?
The reason the question was unusual was that the researcher was not, ultimately, interested in the woman’s life or wish fulfillment. He was interested in her productivity. The enthusiasm for the theories of Frederick Winslow Taylor, ostensibly the world’s first management consultant, had waned considerably since its heyday in the years prior to World War I, but Taylor’s basic scientific ambitions were still largely unquestioned among management theorists. Only in 1927 had Harvard Business School established a Fatigue Laboratory, containing rooms of various temperatures and state-of-the-art instruments to study the reactions of the human body to different types of work and recuperation. In an economy still dominated by manufacturing and physical labor, physiology and infrastructure seemed to hold the key to unleashing better workplace performance. Managers did not consider the Christmas or travel plans of their employees to be any of their business.
The man asking the questions in that telephone production plant was Elton Mayo, an Australian polymath of somewhat dubious scholarly provenance. He had dabbled in philosophy, medicine, and psychoanalysis, and was seduced by many of the doom-laden cultural critiques published in the years following World War I, such as Oswald Spengler’s Decline of the West. Mayo was convinced that civilization was heading for a fall, and that industrial conflict would be its trigger. Trade unions and socialists were thus a threat, not only to management and capital, but to world peace.
In some of Mayo’s more outlandish theories, socialism was a symptom of physical fatigue and psychiatric illness. “To any working psychologist,” he asserted, “It is at once evident that the general theories of Socialism, Guild Socialism, Anarchism and the like are very largely the phantasy constructions of the neurotic.” He believed that the only solution lay in corporations coming to provide forms of psychoanalytic therapy to their employees, which would soothe them, bringing them closer into the arms of their employers. Employees who resisted the authority of their managers were in need of treatment.
Mayo's psychosomatic theories assumed that psychiatric problems in the workplace would show up not only in terms of low productivity and industrial unrest, but high blood pressure. Between 1923 and 1925, he toured manufacturing plants in the Boston area in the company of a nurse and a blood-pressure gauge, attempting to prove this link between the mental, the economic, and the physical, which he was convinced existed quite regardless of the evidence.
The psychological study of work was an emerging field during the 1920s, led by some of the same scholars who had previously pioneered the psychological study of advertising a few years earlier. But Mayo had some much more far-reaching theories regarding the ways in which the insights of psychology might fundamentally reform and rescue capitalism. By focusing on the entire person in the workplace, including all of their personal concerns and mental well-being, work might provide the laborer with their deepest source of meaning, and offset the risk of industrial upheaval once and for all. In 1926, Mayo was hired by the Harvard Business School.
The research in Cicero, Illinois, known as the Hawthorne Studies, after the name of the manufacturing plant where they were carried out, quickly became a landmark of management science. Mayo was one of the founders of the Fatigue Laboratory, but the impact of his work was to divert attention away from the working body and towards the mental happiness of employees. According to the mythology that now surrounds the Hawthorne Studies, Mayo’s main discovery was accidental. The working women who were chosen to be observed and interviewed were taken off the regular shop floor and into a test room, where they were able to relax and interact in a more informal and convivial atmosphere. This seemed to correlate with improved performance, and Mayo had an inkling of why: The study itself, including the interview process, was what resulted in the productivity increases, because the women had developed a higher sense of group identity with one another. Their enthusiasm for work had grown, as their ability to form relationships with one another increased. The general phenomenon, whereby research subjects respond to being studied, is now known as the “Hawthorne Effect” for this reason.
The lesson that Mayo drew from his repeated visits to the Hawthorne plant was that managers had to learn how to talk to their employees if they wanted to extract greater productivity from them. An unhappy worker was also an unproductive worker, and the unhappiness stemmed from a deep-seated feeling of isolation. They also had to understand the unique psychological properties of social groups, which were not simply reducible to individual incentives, as Taylorism and neo-classical economics had supposed. A thriving and collaborative group identity could do far more for an employee ’s happiness, and hence for the manager’s bottom line, than a pay rise.
There is some basis to doubt whether Mayo was really reporting on data acquired at Hawthorne or simply repackaging some theories that he’d long held about the future of capitalism. In fact, the productivity of the women did coincide with a pay increase in 1929, but Mayo was absent at the time and chose to ignore this in his analysis. Regardless of the scientific validity of his work however, Mayo’s impact on management thinking was profound and long lasting. Whenever we now hear that managers must focus on the “whole person,” and not just the “employee,” or that employee happiness is critical to the bottom line, or that we must “love what we do” or bring an “authentic” version of ourselves to work, we are witnessing Mayo’s influence. When managers strive for more laughter in the workplace, as some consultants now insist they must, or seek to transform its smell so as to optimize our subjective feelings, they are practicing what Mayo first preached.
Within the longer history of happiness expertise, what is interesting about Mayo’s intervention is that he downplayed the more obvious material ways of tweaking the pleasures and pains of the mind. Neither money nor the physical body were deemed adequate for understanding or influencing levels of happiness, once the workplace came to be understood in terms of group psychology. Instead, talking to workers and facilitating their relations with one another became the main instruments for gauging and improving their happiness. Management, which originated as a technique for controlling slaves on plantations, and developed as a means of running heavy industrial corporations, had become a “soft” social and psychological skill.
While Mayo did not conceive of things in quite this way, this was a form of psychosomatic intervention, like a placebo. The aim of management in the 1930s was to increase output of physical produce. But now, rather than focusing on the physical and physiological work process, managers would focus on the social and psychological elements, in the expectation that this would yield behavioral, physical, economic improvements.
The term “psychotherapy” today refers to a range of treatments, ranging from more psychoanalytic, long-term relationships, to the quick fixes such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) that are more akin to training or coaching. But the first known uses of the term referred to the “talking cures” offered by medical doctors in the late 19th century, who came to recognize that their patients often responded as much to the manner in which they were spoken to as they did to the medicinal treatment they received.
By the 1980s, an employee’s customer care, service ethic, and enthusiasm were not simply mental resources that existed to help churn out more products: They were the product.
What Mayo was recommending was the industrial parallel to this. An open, conversational relationship could be conducted in such a way as to bring about a change in the worker’s mentality and a consequent change in their physical performance. Speech was instrumentalized, to make people feel better and, as a result, behave better. Once dialogue and co-operation become viewed as an essential element of economic production, one sees the glimmer of a more transformative economic democracy.
Yet the analogy to psychosomatic medical treatments would gradually become more telling as the post-war period progressed, for a couple of coincidental reasons. Firstly, the nature of work in the West became progressively less physical over the second half of the 20th century. By the 1980s, an employee’s customer care, service ethic, and enthusiasm were not simply mental resources that existed to help churn out more products: They were the product. The importance of employee happiness and psychological engagement becomes all the greater once corporations are in the business of selling ideas, experiences, and services. Businesses speak of “intangible assets” and “human capital” in the hope of capturing this amorphous workplace ethos, but in practice it is nothing which resembles either an asset or capital. Some other way of conceiving of work is required.
Secondly, the concept of health started to undergo some profound changes. In 1948, the newly founded World Health Organization redefined health as “a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being”—an almost utopian proposition that few of us ever attain for very long. Intangible aspects of health and illness came to the fore. This is partly a symptom of medical progress: As medicine becomes better at preventing death, so attention turns to the question of how well it is able to support life.
What does any of this have to do with management or work? The problem confronting managers and policymakers over the second half of the 20th century was that everything seemed to be evaporating into thin air at the same time. Work was becoming intangible as manufacturing went into decline. Illness was becoming intangible as mental and behavioral problems increased. Money itself was becoming intangible as the financial system globalized from the late 1960s onwards. Problems of activity and enthusiasm moved elusively between the domains of medicine, psychiatry, workplace management, and economics. The challenges of health care and those of business were becoming harder to disentangle, with the issue of mental health at the interface between the two. The job of management increasingly came to resemble psychotherapy in that original sense of “talking cure,” of propping up the well-being of individuals, in order to keep their enthusiasm for service-based jobs as high as possible.
Until the 1940s, the term “stress” was used principally in reference to metals and was virtually unknown outside the worlds of engineering and physics.
And as the nature of work and management changes, so too does the nature of resistance. Opposition to management typically takes a form other than that preferred by the manager himself. The classical mode of opposition is for the worker to speak back or strike via a trade union. The manager, having ignored the feelings or desires of the worker, is told that they cannot do so any longer. As Mayo’s style of therapeutic management expanded over the post-war period, opposition to it began to take the opposite form. Gradually, as post-industrial workers were encouraged to be “themselves,” speaking openly and honestly to their manager, the sole remaining form of opposition was to return to the physical body once more. The only escape from a manager who wants to be your friend is to become physically ill. With the list of available diagnoses growing, and complete health becoming idealized, sickness became one of the dominant ways in which refusal to work came to manifest itself, especially from the 1970s onwards. Evidently, management could not only focus on relationships and subjective feelings, any more than it could only focus on the productive body. What it needed, if it was to ensnare employees thoroughly, was a truly psychosomatic science that could treat the mind and the body as an integrated part of a single system to be optimized. This brings us to a final character in the story of psychosomatic management.
The history of utilitarianism is littered with dashed hopes that there might be a single measure of human optimization which could serve as the instrument through which all public and private decisions might be taken. This ideal rests on the hope that the ambiguity and plurality of human culture might be overcome through knowledge of a single quantifiable entity. Whether it is via the idea of utility, energy, value, or emotion, the project of monism always involves this form of simplification.
A monistic theory of general wellness was emerging. Until the 1940s, the term “stress” was used principally in reference to metals and was virtually unknown outside the worlds of engineering and physics. An iron bar becomes stressed when it is unable to cope with the demands that are placed on it. Hans Selye, an Austrian doctor, recognized that what engineers saw as “wear and tear” in, say, a bridge, was the same problem as what he had termed “General Adaptation Syndrome” in the human body. General Adaptation Syndrome was effectively an indicator of the “rate of wear and tear in the body.” In the aftermath of World War II, he re-christened the syndrome as “stress.” By the 1950s, this was a distinctive new field of medical and biological research.
Like Mayo, Selye never saw himself as an academic only: He was on a mission. According to his holistic understanding of illness, entire societies and cultures could become sick if they lost the capacity to cope with external stimuli and demands. Equally, they could slump into passive inactivity if they were never stimulated sufficiently. As he grew older, Selye developed this idea into something approaching an ethical philosophy, though a frighteningly egocentric one. A healthy society, he argued, is built around “egoistic altruism,” in which every individual sets about doing his utmost to win the adoration of others. This produces a form of natural equilibrium, in which the egotist becomes integral to his own social system.
Selye’s own biological research, and his macho libertarian politics, the non-specific nature of stress represented an opportunity which would eventually permeate into the world of management. Stress, as Selye had argued, is simply a particular type of reaction to any excessive demand. This was equally amenable to psychological or organizational forms of exploration. In fact, without using the term stress, the U.S. military had become aware of the same syndrome during World War II, in the common forms of psychological collapse experienced by soldiers who had spent too long in battle. The stressful demands placed on a human being are not merely physical, but social and psychological too. What went on between the demand and the response was open to a range of different scientific explanations beyond merely biological ones. The study of stress became an expressly interdisciplinary field.
As the study of how humans cope with physical and mental demands, it also lent itself perfectly to the study of work. By definition, stress is something we encounter without having chosen to, but cannot avoid. It often occurs when we are trapped in a certain situation, simply forced to react to it. The field of occupational health emerged during the 1960s to understand precisely how work impacts upon us, physically and mentally. Studying how different types of job demands produce different hormonal and emotional responses yielded a number of potentially transformative findings. It wasn’t simply that excessive demands were bad for people; insufficient workplace demands—or boredom—could also be unhealthy, as Selye had recognized. Our current concern with unemployment as a potential health risk is one manifestation of the latter anxiety.
Just as Mayo’s emphasis on dialogue created an opening for a more thoroughly egalitarian critique of business hierarchy, the study of stress in the workplace achieved something similar for a while. Work carried out by the psychologist Robert Kahn and his colleagues at the University of Michigan during the early 1960s highlighted the various ways in which power structures and work design impact upon the health of employees. Badly designed jobs and lack of proper recognition in the workplace were clear contributors to physical and mental ill-health. Lack of any influence over where and when one carries out a task is a stress factor, which takes its toll on both mind and body. A number of clear routes, between the injustices of hierarchical business and the vulnerabilities of the human body, were becoming apparent. One of the most important of these was the discovery that stress leads to the cortisol hormone being released into the bloodstream, hardening the arteries and increasing the risk of heart attack. Despite the high-profile obsession with executive burn-out, this form of stress is far more common for those lacking power or status at work.
By the 1980s, the non-specific syndrome that Selye had first identified in his lecture hall in 1925 had become one of the most pressing problems confronting managers in the Western world. They were now exhibiting a generalized deflation of activity, a form of psychosomatic collapse that we have come to identify with the concept of stress. In the U.K., stress overtook repetitive strain injury in 2012 as the leading cause of absence from work. This is not easily classified as either a physical illness or a mental illness. What prompts it may include work but may equally include other types of social, psychological, or physical demands that the individual simply can’t cope with.
The science of stress was of the utmost importance for managers worrying about the depletion of their workforce. It became one of the main preoccupations of the human resources profession, who sought out rudimentary wisdom on a wide panoply of “bio-psycho-social” complaints. The sheer breadth of contributory factors to stress—some tangible, others intangible—made it extremely difficult to achieve any control over it. This is in addition to the graver psychosomatic risks faced by those in precarious jobs, who move in and out of work, without even managers to support them from one month to the next. One conclusion to draw from this would be, as per the occupational health studies of the 1960s, that the fundamental politics of work had grown dysfunctional and needed a more wholesale transformation, and not simply piecemeal medical treatment. But would this be the lesson that was learnt?
In 2001, Unilever’s senior management demanded a program to help them personally manage their own energy levels, as they feared the consequences of executive working lifestyles. Being in the industry they were in, there was ample expertise to help them design this. The “Lamplighter” health and well-being program was the result, tailor-made to help senior management keep up their performance levels and offset the risk of stress. The business benefits for Lamplighter quickly became clear, with evaluations suggesting that every £1 spent on the program yielded £3.73 in return. It was quickly rolled out across dozens of Unilever offices around the world before being extended to cover the rest of the workforce.
This is the monistic philosophy of the 21st-century manager: Each worker can become better, in body, mind, and output.
Programs such as Lamplighter are becoming more and more common. They seek to identify a wide range of health and well-being risks in their workforce, including the sporting activities of employees and their “mental resilience.” Lamplighter requires Unilever employees to be formally (albeit, confidentially) assessed in terms of a range of behaviors, relating to nutrition, smoking and drinking, exercise and personal stress. The state-of-the-art workplace of today has taken on features of the doctor’s surgery, just as the doctor has been required to take on skills of the motivational manager. What are referred to as “Health 2.0” technologies, such as the iPhone’s Health app, for the digital monitoring of well-being are often indistinguishable from productivity enhancements.
Many best practice employers now offer free gym membership to their most valued staff, and even free counseling. As the physical and the psychological character of work—and of illness—start to blend into each other, notions of health, happiness, and productivity become ever harder to distinguish from each other. Employers end up treating all three things as a single entity, to be maximized via a range of stimuli and instruments. This is the monistic philosophy of the 21st-century manager: Each worker can become better, in body, mind, and output.
The political hope that perhaps the human benefits of dialogue and workplace empowerment might be more thoroughly recognized turns into disappointment, as performance management and health care are fused into a science of well-being optimization. And yet there are radical political economists for whom the de-materialization of contemporary work represents an opportunity for a whole new industrial model. The shift towards a “knowledge-based” economy, in which ideas and relationships are key sources of business value, could be the basis of entirely new workplace structures in which power is decentralized and decisions taken collaboratively.
There are good reasons to suspect that such models might produce fewer psychosomatic stresses; in that sense, they may be more efficient than the status quo. If dialogue in the workplace is a necessary factor for productivity, why not grant it some real influence over how decisions get made, right up to the highest level? Rather than ironic management speak, which twists words to manipulate emotions in the expectation that this will yield greater output, a more honest reflection on the problems of occupational ill-health would question the hoarding of status and reward by a small number of senior managers. Instead, traditional forms of management and hierarchy are rescued by the new ubiquity of digital surveillance, which allows informal behavior and communication to be tracked, analyzed and managed.

Listening to this kind of jazz at Café is always fun to do. When I observe other people for a moment at the Café, it seems that the time only applies to everyone but me. People are moving fast, but at the same moment I am only having a sip of coffee and only few melodies passes by my ears. The song provides different time, rhythm in a same environment. When I am listening to this in a totally different environment, like when I run to Gasworks Park in the morning. Although many cars pass by me, it blocks that busyness from me. However it also seemed like the music was playing faster than when I was listening at the Café. I think it was because the movement that I made was faster than before. I found myself I was listening to the music more carefully when I was running than when I was at the café. This might be because the environment and the music was so balanced at the café so I was actually more drawn into looking what was actually happening around me. Therefore, the sound really relates to our movements. The movement that we make also changes our perception of listening to the music and interacting with the environment.

It wasn't long ago that Brandt Snedeker was the thinking man's Masters favorite.
The 32-year-old Tennessean had posted an early 2013 victory and two runner-up finishes on the PGA Tour, seen his reputation as the best putter in the game solidified, and had a Masters T-3 in 2008 on his resume. But a rib injury suffered in his impressive win at Pebble Beach in early February forced him to withdraw from the WGC - Accenture Match Play and Doral, and, after healing, he missed the cut at both Bay Hill and Houston.
Suddenly a Masters dark horse, Snedeker intensely prepared for a week at Augusta-simulated Frederica GC on St. Simons Island, Ga., and opened with two steady 70s.
Yesterday he started with 12 pars before igniting for three birdies for a bogey-free 69. Tied for the lead with Angel Cabrera at seven under, Snedeker is displaying the passion that led him to break down in tears after his Sunday 77 five years ago.
"I've spent 32 years of my life getting ready for tomorrow," he said. "It's all been a learning process, and I am completely, 100 percent sure that I'm ready to handle whatever happens. I'm going to be disappointed if I don't win, period."
On second thought, make him the emotional man's favorite.

"Avoiding death is important, hear me say that, but learning what the facts and factors are, who is a candidate for this, how do we teach them, what does DNA matter to a 14-year-old, where do they start? If it’s marijuana, we ought to stand up and be brave in the medical community to say this political direction is not right," said Sessions, the chairman of the House Committee on Rules, who led a panel on congressional perspectives about the opioid crisis.
"If addiction is the problem and we have marketers of addiction that include marijuana — because all you have to do is go to any of the stores in Colorado and they can give you high to low to medium to chocolate — we ought to call for it what it is," Sessions continued. "If it were nicotine, it would have been outlawed; well, it would have been handled differently. But this is a political issue."
Colorado legalized marijuana for recreational use in 2014. Seven other states, plus the District of Columbia have followed suit.
Sessions echoed Attorney General Jeff Sessions, who earlier this month stated that "a lot of this," referring to the opioid crisis, "is starting with marijuana and other drugs, too."
While marijuana is often the first drug people use, and can lead to using harder drugs, the National Institute on Drug Abuse reported "the majority of people who use marijuana do not go on to use other, 'harder' substances." It also reported that "alcohol and nicotine also prime the brain for a heightened response to other drugs and are, like marijuana, also typically used before a person progresses to other, more harmful substances."
Sessions, who is up for re-election this year, opened his comments about marijuana, legalized in some form in 30 states and the District of Columbia, told two personal stories that he believes condemns marijuana as a beginner level drug for those ultimately seeking a greater high.
"A dear friend of mine, David Siegel, a wealthy man, one of the wealthiest men in America, had an 18-year-old daughter who was in treatment, I believe for marijuana and maybe cocaine," Sessions said. "She met a boy there and within three weeks after being out she was dead. She came back and did what she had been doing after being off it."
The 18-year-old woman was Victoria Siegel, the daughter of the stars of the “Queen of Versailles” documentary. She had reportedly struggled with an addiction to an opioid used to control her seizures. The report by the Orange County (Fla.) Medical Examiner’s Office determined her death was caused by an accidental overdose of methadone and sertraline, both prescription medications.
Sessions later told of a Boy Scout he knew in Lake Highlands, who went off to school at Texas A&M, and fell into heavy drug use started by smoking marijuana.
"Never had smoked marijuana," Sessions said. "At the end of the first year, he was well into it; the second year, he was into heroin. The drive for addiction with some of our children is insatiable. You just never know when you’re looking at a kid what drives them. But parents are desperate."
Can hemp get you high? Can you smoke it? What's THC? Get all the answers in under a minute.
Dr. Vinila Singh, the Chief Medical Officer for the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, has been working closely with Sessions on the opioid issue. She said marijuana has been shown to have medical value, but that more research is needed to better determine potential long-term gains and risks.
"I think with marijuana, there is more research necessary and that’s why a lot of large institutions don’t take a stance yet," Singh said at the summit.
Singh's presentation showed a statistic that 25.3 million American adults, nearly 10 percent of the population, suffer from daily pain, and of those, 23.4 million American adults report "a lot of pain." Her report showed that 11.8 million Americans misused opioids in 2016 with 11.5 million having misused prescription pain relievers.
Users build a tolerance to opioids, requiring them to take increased doses. Singh said she is not aware of studies showing a tolerance to marijuana that would lead to harder drugs. Sessions said marijuana use leads users to "want the next pop."
A study last year published by the American Journal of Public Health indicated that the start of legal marijuana sales in Colorado may be helping to lower prescription opioid overdose deaths in the state. Colorado officials viewed the report with some skepticism.
It's authors, work at the University of North Texas Health Science Center in Fort Worth, as well as at the University of Florida and Emery University in Atlanta, acknowledged that more research is needed to make a firmer determination.
Other studies have also indicated that legalized marijuana for medical purposes such as pain management could reduce prescription drug abuse.
Texas recently made it legal to dispense medical marijuana to those with intractable epilepsy.
Sessions, seated next to Singh during a brief interview session following his speech, said he has been led to believe there are "better alternatives, we don’t have to go to that," referring to liberalized marijuana laws. Singh said she needs more research data to reach a conclusion.
"I referred to marijuana as merchants, this is a merchants of addiction, they are making it more powerful and more powerful and more powerful," Sessions said. "When I went to high school ... in 1973, I graduated, marijuana, on average, is 300 times more powerful. That becomes an addictive element for a child to then go to the next thing."

Toddlers will love to drop objects into the can.
A "toddler can" is an educational toy that's sure to please any little girl or boy. Toddlers will love to drop objects -- like clothespins or blocks -- into the hole in the top of the can, and you will love the fact that they'll get hours of pleasure from your gift.
Step 1: With an adult's help, use a can opener to cut the tin lid and bottom from a coffee can.
Step 2: Cut a piece of felt to fit around the can. Cut the width about 1 inch wider than the can. Glue the felt around the coffee can. Fold and glue the 1-inch excess over the bottom edge of the can to cover rough edges.
Step 3: Decorate the felt with cut felt shapes and fabric markers.
Step 4: Have an adult cut in the following, one in each lid: a circle to fit clothespins, a square to fit blocks, and a slit to fit large poker chips. You also could cut each shape into one lid for a shape-sorter toy.
To play, put a lid on the can and place it on a flat surface. Have the toddler put the shapes in the can.
Here's a fun game for older kids: Draw your own race track on graph paper -- and get ready to start your engines! Keep reading to find out more.

We describe a geometric phase that arises when two elliptical vortex patches corotate. Using the Hamiltonian moment model of Melander, Zabusky, and Styczek [J. Fluid Mech. 167, 95–115 (1986)] we consider two corotating uniform elliptical patches evolving according to the second order truncated equations of the model. The phase is computed in the adiabatic setting of a slowly varying Hamiltonian as in the work of Hannay [J. Phys. A 18, 221–230 (1985)] and Berry [Proc. R. Soc. London, Ser. A 392, 45–57 (1984)]. We also discuss the geometry of the symplectic phase space of the model in the context of nonadiabatic phases. The adiabatic phase appears in the orientation angle of each patch—it is similiar in form and is calculated using a multiscale perturbation procedure as in the point vortex configuration of Newton [Physica D 79, 416–423 (1994)] and Shashikanth and Newton [J. Nonlinear Sci. 8, 183–214 (1998)], however, an extra factor due to the internal stucture of the patch is present. The final result depends on the initial orientation of the patches unlike the phases in the works of Hannay and Berry [J. Phys. A 18, 221–230 (1985)]; [Proc. R. Soc. London, Ser. A 392, 45–57 (1984)]. We then show that the adiabatic phase can be interpreted as the holonomy of a connection on the trivial principal fiber bundle pi:T2×S1-->S1, where T2 is identified with the product of the momentum level sets of two Kirchhoff vortex patches and S1 is diffeomorphic to the momentum level set of two point vortex motion. This two point vortex motion is the motion that the patch centroids approach in the adiabatic limit.

P.K.N. would like to thank J. Hannay for discussions regarding the initial condition dependence on calculations of the phase.

Yesterday, Anti-Discrimination Commissioner Sally Sievers issued a press release asking if we are doing enough as a community in the lead-up to International Women’s Day on Friday 8 March 2019.
This Friday we celebrate International Women’s Day.
Anti-Discrimination Commissioner Sally Sievers say “There is much to celebrate in the Northern Territory as we move into 2019, with women in leadership roles across the NT, both in Parliament and heading up leading NGO’s and Aboriginal Controlled Services”.
However it also a time to ask are we doing enough as a community? As Territory women continue to experience high levels of domestic, family and sexual violence, sexual harassment in work places remains prevalent and pervasive and we increase our understanding of the gendered nature of elder abuse that is perpetrated against older women in the Northern Territory.
“It is a time to renew our call for the whole community to work towards gender equality. This is not just about the numbers of women employed but about changing attitudes and ensuring opportunities for young people so they can be themselves and live their lives to the full” said Ms Sievers.
Reduce the pressure on young men to not show their feelings and not ask for help and that young women have available to them a range of options, work family and community to live full lives.
Gender inequality is the key driver of the high levels of gendered based violence and gender equality can be the key driver of change. Let us use IWD as a call to action.

Please follow the link to register your interest or for more information.
On Thursday 30 July 2015, the Supporting Working Parents website and online resources was launched.
The Australian Human Rights Commission, in partnership with other government agencies, business peaks and unions and key stakeholders has developed a website and series of online resources. These resources for employer and employees promote understanding of rights and obligations in the workplace in relation to pregnancy, parental leave and return to work.
Anti-Discrimination Commissioner Sally Sievers is calling on Territory employers to know what their legal obligations are to their pregnant workers this International Women’s Day.
As recently announced in the “Supporting Working Parents: Pregnancy and Return to Work National Review” one in two (49%) mothers reported experiencing discrimination at some stage during pregnancy, maternity leave or on returning to work.
The Anti-Discrimination Commissioner was recently in Sydney for the Australian Council of Human Rights Authorities (ACHRA) Meeting. The ACHRA is comprised of the State, Territory and Federal human rights and discrimination authorities and met in Sydney to consider a number of issues of common concern and interest. Please see the attached media Communique which gives an outline of what was raised and addressed at the meeting.

Sexual harassment complaints in the Northern Territory have increased by 93% according to the Northern Territory Anti-Discrimination Commission’s Annual Report 2013 – 14 tabled in Parliament today.
Anti-Discrimination Commissioner Sally Sievers said that while the number of cases reported had increased, the activity itself may not have increased.
Nominations are now open for the Inaugural NT Human Rights Awards. The awards are designed to recognise the work of those who on a daily basis, promote, encourage and advocate for Human Rights in the Northern Territory. The Awards night will be celebrated on United Nations Day for Human Rights – 10 December 2014. So save this date!
We are now asking that you consider nominating colleagues, work mates or friends for an Award.
Did you know that in Australia one woman a week dies from an act of domestic violence?
