Speaking multiple languages can influence children's emotional development
Medical Xpress
In a new article in the July issue of Perspectives on Psychological Science, a journal of the Association for Psychological Science, psychological scientists Stephen Chen and Qing Zhou of the University of California, Berkeley and Morgan Kennedy of Bard College delve deeper into the linguistic phenomenon of code-switching. Drawing on research from psychology and linguistics, the researchers seek to better understand how using different languages to discuss and express emotions in a multilingual family might play an important role in children's emotional development.

CBS News
Tenure will be harder for New Jersey teachers to get and easier to lose under a law Gov. Chris Christie signed after deciding he can live with a compromise that keeps seniority as the way to determine which educators lose their jobs in the case of layoffs. Even as he signed the law — a major one for advocates for improving New Jersey's public education system — the Republican governor called for doing more.

Cariloha will be the only retailer in the Hawaiian Islands and in South Carolina selling exclusively clothing, bedding and bath goods made from bamboo.
OAHU, HAWAII & SOUTH CAROLINA – Cariloha announced that its first store on the island of Oahu in Hawaii opened to the public this week at the base of the Hyatt Regency Hotel across from Waikiki Beach. Additionally, Cariloha opened its first stores in the state of South Carolina in the city of Charleston on King Street and in the city of Myrtle Beach at the Barefoot Landing shopping center.
Additional Cariloha stores are planned in 2013 in Aruba's Royal Plaza, Orlando's International Airport, Ala Moana's Shopping Center in Oahu and Wailea, Maui, Hawaii. The independently owned stores will be operated by licensed, contracted partners of Cariloha, LLC.
Cariloha has been rapidly expanding its international and domestic presence for the past three years, now with 9 corporately owned and 26 independently owned stores in 12 countries. Today, there are Cariloha stores open in Mexico, Grand Cayman, Jamaica, St. Lucia, Barbados, Honduras, St. Maarten, Bahamas, Antigua, Bonaire and various cities throughout the USA.
With more than 7 million private businesses in America, Cariloha is the only one that offers an entire store experience that revolves completely around bamboo-based merchandise. Cariloha's hats, shirts, polos, dresses, shorts, skirts, socks, bed sheets, bath towels, jewelry and more are all made from unique bamboo blends.
"These new Cariloha stores are going to be successful locations for us," said Scott Brady, Assoc. VP of Communications. "We've been pursuing great locations in these areas for several months now, and having it come to fruition will provide even more of our worldwide fans with access to the Cariloha Bamboo Nation."
These three Cariloha stores, which range in size between 800 and 1,000 sq. ft. will be staffed and managed by both local employees and corporately hired interns, who will work in the store for three to six months. Staffers encourage store visitors to touch and feel the bamboo-soft difference of the Cariloha clothing, bed sheets, bath towels, blankets, socks and more that are all made from bamboo.
Bamboo apparel features several qualities that make it a superior fabric. It's twice as soft to touch as cotton and keeps you a few degrees cooler. It's naturally hypoallergenic and helps prevent skin odor and skin irritation, which comes in really handy on a hot day at the beach.
"When you think of bamboo, large green shoots in the jungle somewhere likely come to mind," said Jeff Pedersen, Cariloha President and CEO. "Not many people know that bamboo can actually be husked and separated into ultra-soft fabric for making apparel and other goods at little-to-no risk on the environment. In fact, some species of bamboo can grow up to 4 feet per day. It's one of the most renewable resources on the planet."

Keep that extra mag ready with an ExtraCarry pocket pouch
Carrying an extra magazine is a concealed carry best practice, yet few people do it. Although I do tote a spare mag in the front pocket of my jeans on most days, I'll admit extracting it from a cargo pocket is a clumsy process—the opposite of what would serve me in a gunfight.
New on the scene to remedy the situation is the ExtraCarry magazine pouch. Made of pliable plastic with a metal clip, it was made for use in a pocket to keep that extra ammo right where it belongs—accessible and properly indexed for use.
Each of the pouches is customized for your model of firearm. Most popular carry-gun models have an ExtraCarry to match their mags. The model in this test is for the Sig Sauer P365 mags, albeit the 12-round variety when mine hold only 10—an example of how customized each ExtraCarry is.
On the outside—which is to say, the visible side when worn—is a simple metal clip that lends the appearance of wearing a folding blade when the device is carried. The clip rotates on its attachment point at the top of the pouch, making It easy for the wearer to choose the perfect angle of carry inside the pocket.
The holder itself, at least for the Sig pouch in this test, a simple, two-inches-deep cup that closely fits the contour of the mag. Corners of the cup are beveled for comfort and, ostensibly, to prevent printing. While it adds a minimum of bulk to the profile of the mag itself, the cup has no retention other than gravity. In other words, if you go break dancing while armed, don't be surprised when the mag goes sliding across the floor as you lay down your best moves.
In this test, I spent a couple weeks wearing—and in two cases, only trying–the ExtraCarry on several different brands of pants, jeans, and shorts. Of course, everyone is shaped differently and another tester could have a very different experience. This is just a description of mine.
Out of the package, retention on the clip (and I do mean the clip on the product, not the magazine) is very tight. So tight that it takes some effort to guide it over the pocket hem on some pants. That's kind of comforting; though the device exerts no retention on the mag, I'm confident the whole works won't come off unintentionally.
On the other hand, the rotation of the clip to achieve a certain angle in the pocket is probably set at about five pounds of pressure. While this seemed tight enough, I found the motion of my body would push the clip to a different, and consistently more comfortable, angle than what I'd set.
At least with some pants, the downside of this unintentional angle change was increased printing, at least with jeans. Printing wasn't a problem with looser-fitting cargos.
The advantage of wearing the ExtraCarry with jeans, at least the kind I wear, was the ease of drawing the mag from the pocket, whether standing or sitting. It's counter-intuitive, but getting a solid grip on the mag, with my index finger on the front, was easier with the smaller and comparatively shallow jeans pockets. The smaller front pockets on my jeans also offered easier extraction of the mag when I was seated.
Tactical pants and cargo pants carried the device without printing, and comfortably. However, drawing from a pocket took some effort, as these deep pockets seemed to swallow the magazine and required that I grasp the floorplate with my fingertips and fish it out to the edge of the pocket where I could then get a secure hold. With these deep-pocket pants, drawing the mag while seated took more effort than with jeans, but still less effort than fishing for a loose magazine in the pocket.
Did the ExtraCarry make carriage of an extra mag better for me compared to having it loose in a pocket? Yes. Even in pockets where "fishing" was required, the mag stays in ready position inside the pocket. I do have some concern that the mag could fall out, unbeknownst to me, were I to do physical gyrations when wearing it with shallow-pocket pants. If you're a female wondering if it'll work with the microscopic pockets on most women's pants, don't count on it.
I liked the way the ExtraCarry kept my mag ready in the best, most consistent position possible with street pants. The only thing I'd change, if I could, is to shave off the top of the device to lower its visible profile. An area an inch wide, and a sliver more than half an inch tall, protrudes outside the pocket. The ExtraCarry can be ordered direct from the company website. Each pouch is $55, but new subscribers to the company email list get 10 percent off.

Shock new parking charges at Beer
PUBLISHED: 15:56 09 April 2014 | UPDATED: 15:56 09 April 2014
Traders in Beer are reeling after shock new charges reveal shoppers will have to pay for parking 24 hours of the day.
Visitors had enjoyed free stays from 6pm until 8am, giving restaurants an evening boost they say was damaged when winter fees were brought in.
Now they face shelling out 50 pence for every half-hour, up to £6 a day – but East Devon District Council's (EDDC) move has been slammed by residents as parish councillors said they were not made aware of the changes.
Nigel Groves, who runs Beer Post Office and regularly uses the car park in the evening in his role as scout leader, broke the news to them at Monday's annual parish meeting.
"First they got rid of free winter parking, now they are doing this, and with no consultation," he said.
"They could have at least gone through the parish council. I think it's disgraceful. People are going to spend less in Beer in the evening."
He said if the parish council needed a show of opposition from businesses, he would orchestrate it.
Andy Williams, head chef at the Steamers, said there had been a drop in footfall since winter charges were introduced, but it was unclear if that had been caused by them or the recession. "There used to be a lot more people in the streets and we used to do a lot more daytime trade – I'm concerned to see what will happen," he added.
District councillor Geoff Pook said as far as he was aware, the car parking regime was going to stay the same.
An EDDC spokesman said there had been two district-wide consultations, adding: "All our other coastal long stay car parks have for many years been subject to charges over a 24-hour period seven days per week. Only Beer Central has not.
"Experience demonstrates that reasonable charges are an entirely appropriate way to manage demand in popular car parks. Research tells us visitors expect to pay for parking when they drive to a new town.
"We do not share the view that the revised charging regime in Beer Central will have a detrimental effect on businesses and their customers.
"On-street parking is still available free of charge for those who choose to look and, for those who don't, ample parking in a well lit, well maintained car park is still available in a convenient location within this popular village."

When was the last time you thanked a co-worker for an insight?
Or appreciated someone on your staff just for bringing their creativity to work every day?
Or even thanked someone for bringing up an unpopular but important topic?
It's well-documented that cultivating a practice of gratitude is good for you, your health, and your relationships. Did you know that gratitude is great for your team too? When you express heartfelt gratitude to your co-workers, they experience an increased sense of self-worth and value to the company. When people feel valuable, they treat each other with more respect.
But the benefits don't stop there. When your team develops a habit of finding real things to feel grateful about, their ability to weather the inevitable storms together also increases. Bam! Resilience!
I'm Grateful for You!
I am grateful that you are out there making the world a more creative, more engaged, and more meaningful place to work. I am also grateful that you support Radically Human's work. We stand on the shoulders of giants and are grateful that you are part of this community. THANK YOU!

A Fantastic Woman. Made in Chile, this often harrowing film of a transwoman's quest for dignity and the right to grieve her lover is nominated for an Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film. It is propelled by an outstanding performance by Daniela Vega.
Trans on Stage. The Art and Politics of Cross-Gender Performance. Gender transgression and the theatre are intimately linked throughout human history and have served to illustrate and transform issues of transgenderism, same sex love, and the role of women in society.
A Film and a Novella
The Triple Echo was a novella written by H. E. Bates and published in 1970. It is the story of an army deserter in war time England who finds refuge in the home of a married woman trying to run a farm while her husband is a prisoner of war in Japan. To avoid suspicion and arrest, the deserter gradually adopts female dress, which begins her awakening as a trans woman. It was made into a movie in 1972. Directed by Michael Apted, it starred Glenda Jackson, Oliver Reid and Brian Deacon.
The print version of Triple Echo featured collages by Rachel Steen that played a big part in giving the 'zine its unique look. As all these collages were reproduced in black and white, I thought it would be worthwhile to display a few of my favourites in their glorious original colours.

Health and Medical Education Minister Brahm Mohindra said all efforts would be made to ensure the timely completion of the project.
The Government of India would release Rs 113.40 crore in three installments for equipment and infrastructural development of the college, the release said.
The Punjab government has already made provisions for the project in its budget for 2018-19.

Apart from this, a stretch of 6.84 acres in Jujhar Nagar village has been acquired just 1.5 km from the District Hospital, Mohali.
The spokesperson said the chief minister had directed the Health Department to acquire more land if needed for the project.

I used to love playing Golden Axe in the arcade, and one of my favorite games for my old Sega Genesis was Altered Beast. Needless to say, fantasy beat-em-ups were a big part of my childhood, and that's one of those genres that I have been wishing would make a comeback.
Luckily, this seventh generation of video game consoles just so happens to be "The Nostalgia Generation," as we've seen more old IP revivals and HD remakes than I can count. In addition, we've also seen a number of new IPs, particularly from indie developers, that have been producing games of an "old school" variety.
Atlus Games' newest entry, Dragon's Crown, bears more than a striking resemblance to those fantasy beat-em-ups that I loved so much growing up. Of course, those games were great for 10 minutes at the arcade, so what do you do to give players a nice, meaty adventure for a console? Why, toss in a story and RPG elements, of course.
This review is for both the PS3 and Vita versions of Dragon's Crown, though I should point out, the game is NOT Cross Buy. Cross Save is enabled, but if you want both versions, you're going to have to shell out money twice for it. I'm not really sure why that's the case, but I suppose not all Cross Save compatible games can be Cross Buy (though that would be nice, wouldn't it?)
Dragon's Crown has a nice mix of RPG elements and beat-em-up gameplay. All the setup portions to the actual dungeon crawling are carried out like any other RPG. You have towns that you can explore, where you can interact with NPCs, buy/sell equipment, pick up quests, resurrect dead characters to add to your party (if you're playing single player), etc. It's basically a central hub to take care of all business before heading out to do battle.
The actual fighting portion of the game consists of levels broken up into a series of interconnected "rooms" ending in a boss battle. The game plays out very smoothly with lightning fast animations that rarely, if ever, lagged on both the Vita and PS3 versions. The only complaint I had regarding the Vita version is the fact that having a 5 inch screen packed with characters all attacking at once made for a somewhat confusing situation. It was hard to tell who's who, and in those situations I usually just button mashed, hoping to kill whatever was around me so I could see again.
Graphically, the game is gorgeous, especially on the Vita's OLED screen. You would think that having the game stretched out on a large HDTV with the PS3 version would be the way to go, but overall, my preference was the Vita. There's something about that screen that makes the imagery seem more…"clear." Regardless, either version looks fantastic, and if you take a look at the screenshots posted in this review, there's pretty much no noticeable difference. It doesn't matter which version you get, it's a gorgeous game with rich colors, beautifully animated characters, and some of the most ridiculously gratuitously endowed characters I have seen in quite some time. Seriously, the "physics" were very distracting.
Combat is where the game really shines. Props to Vanillaware for giving us a side scrolling beat-em-up that's actually pretty difficult. In Dragon's Crown, the enemies will level up in difficulty as you level up, never giving you an opportunity to become so overpowered that you just breeze through the game. The combat in DC is pretty straightforward on a basic level. You have your melee attack, a "special" attack (which differs between the different classes), and a variety of attacks based off directional button inputs (like Down + Square, Up + Square, etc). The directional pad scrolls between different items you can use, and the right analog stick manipulates an on-screen cursor, which acts to give commands to the rogue/thief member of your party. You can use him to open chests, unlock doors, etc. Between the different classes you have a nice mix of melee specialists, ranged, spellcasters, and those that are a combination of all of the above. Whichever one you choose will be up to your own preference; though keep in mind that the game does tell you which character classes it feels is for beginners, and which ones are for more experienced players.
It really depends on how you play the game. If you're the type to charge into a battle face first and swing your sword around like crazy, then you might not want to play as the Sorceress, who has mostly spells, low HP, and the ability to recharge her own MP. Maybe stick with the Fighter, who is built like a tank and can withstand a lot of punishment. I found that lining your character up correctly with the enemy can be somewhat challenging at first, so ranged/spell characters may struggle a bit in the hands on a novice. I suspect this is where the game's difficulty suggestions come into play.
While you can go into any level and just mash the attack button until everything on-screen is dead, the real fun in Dragon's Crown lies in working with your other team members (whether it's AI or co-op) and using different attacks and combos. It's one thing to slash and hack a zombie until it dies; it's another to launch it into the air, juggle it a few times with your sword, then finish it off with a well placed arrow. As far as creating a team goes, I liked to use a Fighter while filling the other three spots with Elves and a Sorceress. That way if I ever needed to fall back to use a health potion or something, I still had other team members who could occupy the enemy from afar while I beat a hasty retreat. Again, it all comes down to your individual play style.
The other aspect of Dragon's Crown's gameplay that I loved was the loot aspect. I'm a sucker for games like Diablo and The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing. I like collecting loot, and I like constantly swapping out my equipment for bigger and better components. As it stands, DC's loot system isn't nearly as deep at something like Diablo, but it still tickled my loot cravings. For starters, you can't really change your appearance. Sure you can choose from a few preset colors, but other than your weapons, there's not going to be much of a difference in the way your character looks. The loot drops are also not tied to slain enemies; rather, you will find points of interest scattered throughout the level represented by a flashing light (your fairy can also point these out to you), and piles of bones scattered about. Send your rogue to "unlock" the loot, collect whatever you can find throughout each level, and at the end of each stage, you can spend gold to appraise each loot item (which basically tells you what each item is). Keep what you want, sell what you don't want, rinse and repeat. It's a simple system, yet addictive as hell.
On the surface, Dragon's Crown actually looks like a fairly short game, but take into account the fact that each character plays dramatically different from each other, the fact that most dungeons encourage exploration for hidden rooms, and the fact that there is a New Game + "Hard Mode" where you can level to 99, and you have a game that will take you approximately 20 hours to complete with each character. By completing the game, you will also unlock additional multiplayer features, such as a PvP Arena. And of course, being a game with four player co-op, playing with live humans as your party member makes a huge difference compared to playing with AI partners. It may be a full priced game, but don't let what DC appears to be on the surface throw you off. There's quite a bit of depth and re-playability here.
Dragon's Crown is gorgeous, brutal, addictive, and judging by the character designs, doesn't take itself too seriously. Other than not having Cross Buy, I don't see too many issues with this game. Honestly though, the Cross Buy thing is really confusing to me. Why have a game with Cross Save functionality, but ask people to pay $49.99 for the PS3 version, and $39.99 for the Vita version? Who in their right minds would purchase a game twice just to move a save file back and forth? I guess that's not really my concern; what people do with their own hard earned cash is not my call.
It is one of the best games on the Vita, and one of the best beat-em-ups I have played in years on any console. The fact that it adds in so many different RPG elements only makes the whole experience that much better. Dragon's Crown definitely sets the bar pretty high for any other beat-em-up in the near future, especially fantasy themed ones; because simply tossing in a few levels is now no longer enough.

Today is New Year's Eve. Laura and I just ran up to Emmanuels Market Place in Stone Ridge, NY. We decided to some more Sushi would be good to celebrate the new year. Laura also wanted to get a bottle of vodka and I wanted to get some sparkling grape juice. I like that stuff.
We went into the liquor store first to get the vodka. Then, we went into the grocery store and grabbed the Sushi first. We got a few things here and there and I went to find the grape juice. I couldn't find it, but I did come across the area where I picked up that Samuel Adams Double Bock over the summer. I said to myself, "Mmmm, that beer would be better than the stupid grape juice," so I started looking for it. For some reason, I couldn't find it. Perhaps it's seasonal or something. I did come across a different type of beer though.
This one came in a 4-pack, so I know there is something special about it. It is called Schneider Weisse Aventinus and they claim it to be Germany's original wheat-doppelbock, ale. I am quite interested in tasting this good looking beer. I loved the descriptions, especially where it said, "Dark-ruby, almost black-colored and streaked with fine top-fermenting yeast…" That's what I'm talkin' bout. They also say that it settles to the bottom. I can see a layer of stuff on the bottom of the bottle. Ooohhh, I just love that. I also love un-filtered beer, but this will have to do.
I will let you know how it goes after tonight.

Bees, butterflies could be on Connecticut's legislative agenda
HARTFORD >> Connecticut could soon join the ranks of states seeking to boost the health of bees and butterflies.
The effort comes as federal officials work on a national strategy to restore honeybee colony health to sustainable levels by 2025, increase Eastern monarch butterfly populations by 2020 and eventually restore millions of acres of land for pollinators.
State Sen. Ted Kennedy Jr., son of the late U.S. senator from Massachusetts and co-chairman of the General Assembly's Environment Committee, sees the issue as an economic one in Connecticut, where several bumblebee species have declined.
"There are so many different crops that we grow in Connecticut, including fruits and vegetables, which depend on bees. And so they're really pivotal to maintaining our agricultural sector in our state," said Kennedy, who is in the early stages of coming up with possible legislation for the new session, which begins Feb. 3.
At least 14 states have passed legislation in recent years to boost pollinator populations, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures. Laws have focused on expanded research, beekeeper assistance, limitations on certain pesticides, protecting habitats and greater awareness.
Oregon in 2014 created a task force to study pesticide regulations and evaluate the best management practices for applying widely used neonicotinoid pesticides. In 2010, Kentucky encouraged coal companies to locate and protect pollinator habitats on reclamation sites. While Pennsylvania declared a pollinator awareness week in 2014, Hawaii passed legislation in 2013 encouraging small bee-keeping operations.
Jonathan Bishop, co-owner of Bishop's Orchards in Guilford, said he worries state lawmakers might ban or further regulate certain pesticides without understanding the precautions farmers are already taking to protect pollinators. While saying he and growers in Connecticut haven't been hurt by the decline in bee populations, he suggested more needs to be done to inspire plantings.
"Something they could do is to encourage people to plant habitat, fields of wildflowers or crops that don't get sprayed but are a source of food for pollinators," he said.
John Campanelli, a graduate student at the University of Connecticut, is working such a concept. Using funds from transportation departments in all six New England states, Campanelli is creating a manual to help the agencies grow native grasses and plants along highway medians, roadsides that don't have to be mowed as often.
In addition to saving money, these native meadows would become habitats for pollinators, who need places to feed and nest.
Planting milkweed, for example, would help protect monarch butterflies that lay eggs in the plant and feed on the leaves. Midwestern states have been creating such meadows for years, he said.
"We have to figure out a way to do it here in New England," said Campanelli, who hopes to encourage state DOTs to take advantage of new federal money to help states manage vegetation around highways to help pollinators.
Kimberly Stoner, an associate scientist at the Connecticut Agricultural Experiment Station who researches bees, said there is interest in growing pollinator plantings on the old Hartford landfill.
Meanwhile, she said, other states have taken other less expensive steps, such as developing pollinator protection plans to notify bee keepers when pesticides are being sprayed.
"I think there are things that we can work out that will benefit pollinators that will not be a major cost," Stoner said. "And why wouldn't you do that?"

Oniric: homemade music since 2004
Oniric is a prog-rock solo project that started in 2004 by Soundrise's lead vocalist and poly-instrumentalist Walter Bosello. The project's sound ranges from a variety music genres like progressive rock, metal, industrial, and funk.
a bit about me
I was always interested in music. It was and always will be my companion..that and art in general.Ever since I was a child I've been fiddling with instruments and had a talent for music. You'd say I have a good ear.But I've always been torn between music and painting (or figurative art in general). With the passing of the years I drifted away from Conservatory, where I was studying Viola to focus more on high school and then went to America to study Fine Arts @ Montserrat College of Art.It was an incredible time for me over there. I've opened up my eyes to wonders I couldn't imagine before. And this also influenced me towards music. I didn't have much time to play and was very shy because of my English. It was only when I came back in Italy that I struggled to take home recording to the next level. Before this time (2001) home recording, to me, was recording over tapes…which plain sucks. Oh man…if I think about the hours spent over that damn Hi-fi..
Between 2001 and 2004
I started composing some music. That's also when I met a wonderful person: Carol. She is experienced in home recording and also an exceptional composer. I learned so much from her!
I produced my first album: Digressions. It was a great start for me at the time. First of all the sound of saying "my first album" was music already ;)But when I hear it today…heh…shivers! How could I not feel ashamed at the poor sound! The use of ready made loops..an old Zoom effect from the 80's! Wow…let's drop it right here! XD
With the passing of the years I worked on multiple songs trying to reach a better sound quality. I also changed software and (fortunately) hardware. Finally "Time is mine" came out. A transitional album, time is mine started shaping more and more the kind of music I do, shifting towards a more "industrial-metal" kind of sound.
Driven by the new sound I worked very fast on "Control", a 19 song release that has some very good stuff in it…and some very bad stuff as well. It's important to realize also the faults of one's work! Although some songs shaped very much my kind of music, I must say it was a bit of a flop. I know I like it very much but it's not quite there.
Antigravity. This album is different in that it has some mainstream sounds embedded. I usually despise mainstream since I tend to be very progressive and I like to this innovative too. But you can't beat…a beat ('scuse me) that caches and goes straight to the heart.This album is also more "industrial" (I hope Trent won't be too pissed at me :P). I like to play with Nine Inch Nails sounds and throw in some metal grooves just to see what happens.
A great struggle for sound quality and to get to a broader audience lead to Raw, the most acclaimed album so far. I also decided to do some graphics for this one and even produced it physically.
Hard work on The Gaia and Polished album. The Gaia album regards a conflict between man and nature. This is set in a parallel reality where Nature actually has a voice and man is not after all the non-disputed ruler over Earth. The Polished album dealt with my own internal conflicts and getting in my mid-30's, which was tougher than I expected. The album is full of twists and dark sides, but overall also full of energy.
While Polished and Gaia took also most part of 2013 to be completed, in the meanwhile lots of little side-projects started. I started recording more home videos for my vlog and some simple videos for my songs, so I could post them on youtube. Also I started working on the re-release of the album Digressions, completely re-performed. Finally, I'm planning a 10th anniversary album that will include several performances by close friends who have been close to me in these past 10 year and whom I admire very much!
After trying for a full year to put a band together I gave up, due to the impossibility to find a keyboard player. The band just couldn't work without one so we just gave up. I dove intro the composition of the album Migration which I completed on April 24th. This 8th album marks the end of this project, at least for the time being, since I've discovered the public is more invested in the covers that I produce. It started as joke but it's really working out and since Migration didn't really get any attention (as Gaia didn't either), I've decided to take a break from songwriting. So: hiatus? Hiatus :D

Anywhere but here was probably the first thought I had when thinking about where to go, but when it came down to checking off criteria, Australia was one of the few options that made sense.
Tech startup presence. Check.
Active ruby community. Check.
English speaking country. Check.
Visa options. Check.
Proximity to adventure. Check.
As I started to reach out to recruiters and companies, I felt a strong tinge of fear and uncertainty. It's the demons we all battle.
"Am I good enough?"
"Have I grown enough for a company to consider me?"
It was hard to believe that a year and a half of exploring and self learning had brought me here. This felt like a moment of truth; A test that would feel like a true milestone.
But here in lies part of the problem when you wander without a defined pathway, people will often tell you that they believe in you and that you must "believe in yourself". The reality is that you don't always believe in yourself. It is far easier to have faith in others since the core responsibility of making it happen does not lie with you.
The thing with belief is that you can't fake it. You either have it or you don't.
And I will admit, during the interview process, for the most part, I did not have it.
My belief stems from my own process rather than a core belief in myself. My process was simple enough; If I continued to follow my own mantra of learn, explore, create with the focus on getting better, I would eventually reach some sense of validation. At least, that is the hope.
After my initial outreach, I realized that most companies would not consider sponsoring juniors like myself. One recruiter told me that it boiled down to this,
"Looking for sponsorship will mostly be a waste of time. But if you show a commitment to coming here, I'm confident that we can find something for you."
And so I did. I changed my approach and committed to a target date of June.
I remember when I arrived back in Vancouver, about a few months in, I felt the need to find work to pay the bills. I didn't have enough programming under my belt to qualify for many tech positions, so I was willing to take almost anything of modest pay. I remember one of the developers telling someone else who was also in my shoes, "Don't do it. Keep going on this path. You have no idea how valuable you can become."
He directed his next comments to me. "You too. You have the startup bug. I see it in you. Your hunger will give you options."
I didn't think too much about the comments he made at the time, but he was right. I decided to hold out and about 6 months later, I saw a glimpse of what he mentioned.
"I am surprised to see you use this technology. This is not what I would expect from a junior." One company said during the interview process.
Another company called me back for a re-interview after rejecting me for initial role suitability. They figured that "with my motivation levels and eagerness to learn, there may be something we could work out".
My first taste of validation.
But the company that stood out was the one that was in the late stages of the recruiting process. I asked them about their progress during the first interview.
"We have someone in mind right now, but we can take two people if we want."
I knew I had my work cut out for me. I would have to make my own spot. I was facing three hurdles that most people didn't have: I was an international applicant; I was a self taught developer; And I was a junior.
In the end, I did something right because they offered me that second spot. I feel pretty lucky. Most juniors will take whatever they can get. I had a shortlist of six companies and I got my number one choice. It hit all my checkboxes of preference:
- Single product company
- A product that I actually find interesting
- Smaller company size
- Mentorship and support in growth
- Freedoms within the company
But this was not about the offer. The offer represented progress and growth. Unlike Malaysia which felt somewhat like a blind walk, I feel more assured of my next steps and where I need to progress.
While some may wonder if I am heading in a totally different direction from my initial goals with let's chill and apps, the answer is: not really. I was pretty naive and clueless when I started out. I still am but now I understand a bit of "knowing what I don't know". You can't be hemmed in by your original thoughts.
I know I still need to and have a strong desire to grow my development skills. I know I needed to solve my money issue. I know I still want to live abroad. So to me, this was the most sensible decision I've made to date.
Like all my choices, it's true that I don't know where this will go. I don't know if I will like them or if they will like me. But my eyes are now on a bigger prize: could I take equity in this company?
One of my developer friends has missed out on similar opportunities on two occasions. He tells me, "If you are given a cookie, you take the cookie."
I have been given a cookie. Let's see how it tastes.

Grand Theft Auto V, currently one of the hottest PC games, was finally released for the PC on April 14, 2015. Developed by Rockstar, it is set in 2013 and the city of Los Santos. It utilizes the Rockstar Advanced Game Engine (RAGE) which Rockstar has been using since 2006, with multiple updates for technology improvements.
In Grand Theft Auto V we set the game to run with high image quality settings as we didn't want the GPU to bottleneck the system too bad, but wanted a setup that your average gamer would actually play on with this system. We used the games built-in benchmark utility to have at least one game we used that could be compared to your setup at home. We averaged all the five of the default benchmark runs and omitted both the minimum and maximum values as those results are garbage due to major inconsistencies.
Benchmark Results: When it comes to GTA V we found that the ASUS Strix GL502 was capable of 84.2 FPS ion average with 2x MSAA enabled. We were so happy with this we enabled 8x MSAA and we were still averaging above 65 FPS on average!

How to Clear a Plugged Roof Plumbing Stack
Check your plumbing vent stack when you hear grumbling in your pipes or bubbling in the toilet. Leaves, debris or small animals can get into vent stacks to clog them and cause methane gas to back up into your home. The gas not only causes foul odors but can also make you sick. You can clear the clog yourself with a flat drain tape and a water hose. Drain tapes can be found at most hardware stores and you could save a wad of cash by doing the job yourself.
Set a ladder up next to the house to gain access to the roof. Position the ladder on firm, level ground with the top two rungs extending above the roof. Anchor the ladder to a fixed object with a rope or bungee cords. Put a flashlight and gloves in your pocket. Carry a water hose and a flat drain tape over your shoulder as you climb to the top of the ladder. Use both hands and hold onto the sides of the ladder as you climb. When you reach the edge, throw the hose and drain tape onto the roof before you step off the ladder.
Find the plumbing vent stack and use the flashlight to look into the vent for obstructions such as leaves or nests. Put on gloves and remove what you can with your hands.
Insert the auger end of the drain tape into the plumbing vent pipe and work it around to break up the clog. Place the nozzle of the water hose into the vent stack. Feed the hose into the vent as far as it will go. Have a helper turn the water on at the faucet.
Listen for a whooshing sound as the water runs, signaling that the clog is being forced down the drain. Continue working the drain tape with the running water until the clog has been completely removed.
Place the hose and drain tape at the edge of the roof near the ladder. Facing the ladder, hold onto the sides and step onto the third rung. Descend the ladder and stop when you are level with the edge of the roof. Pick up the drain tape and hose, put them over your shoulder and continue down the ladder.
Things Needed
- Ladder
- Rope
- Bungee cords
- Flashlight
- Gloves
- Water hose
- Flat drain tape
- Rubber-soled shoes
- Roof harness
- Wear nonskid, rubber-soled shoes and use caution when climbing a ladder or walking on the roof.
- Use a roof harness on a steep roof.
- Have someone stay inside the house to watch for leaks when you hose the vent stack.
- Use a flat drain tape that will maneuver around bends in the pipe.
- If the clog is caused by ice, connect the water hose to the hot water valve on the washing machine to melt the clog.
- Cover vent openings with screen or caps to prevent clogs caused by debris falling into the vent.

7 Grooming Products You Need for No Shave November
Your Halloween festivities have yet to begin, but you're already mourning the loss of another holiday. With the end of the ghoulish holiday in sight, it feels like there's nothing in the near future to look forward to. And Thanksgiving is, like, a month away. Enter No Shave November (or Movember): the month-long holiday to satiate your holiday hunger; for men who dare to brave the unknown forgo shaving for the total month of November. The result? Lots of facial hair-boasting Instagrams and frustrated significant others.
For those who decide to participate in this month-long grooming extravaganza, rocking perfectly maintained facial hair for 30 days is no easy feat. But, with the help of a few grooming products, you can easily get your best beard yet. Check out these seven must-have items for this year's No Shave November.
1. Ingrown hair solution
Even if you're blade-adverse a year, you know that ingrown hairs and razor burn are major drawbacks to having facial hair. Both are extremely uncomfortable, cramp your facial hair game, and are unavoidable, right? It's time to reconsider the latter. Just because you are spending a whole month with a husky beard doesn't mean that you have to endure sensitive ingrown hairs.
Made of an alpha-beta hydroxyl acid complex, Jack Black's Bump Fix Razor Bump & Ingrown Hair Solution is an oil-free way to put an end to those pesky ingrown hairs and razor burns. The secret is the salicylic acid and lactic acid, both of which exfoliates your skin's surface and seeps deep down into your skin. The result? These acids help open up your pores and release the trapped hairs. Yes, this product is a miracle worker. As an added bonus, this pick is also said to help combat acne. Translation: You will be using this long after No Shave November is over.
2. Biotin
Let's get one thing straight: If you're going to participate in No Shave November, you better have the most epic beard around. Sure, your mother (who was hoping to shoot your annual family holiday card over Thanksgiving weekend) and significant other (who prefers you clean-shaven) may get annoyed, but isn't it your manly duty to sport an outrageously full beard?
If you find yourself stuck with a few whiskers, start taking biotin vitamins each day. Known to help stimulate hair and nail growth, Natrol's maximum-strength iteration is a natural way to kick-start that beard. This pick is also reported to aid in metabolizing fat and energy production, both of which we're not complaining about — especially as you enter egg nog and holiday cookie season.
3. Beard conditioning oil
We don't mean to sound dramatic, but there's nothing worse (grooming-wise) than not hydrating your facial hair. For starters, your girlfriend or boyfriend will hate snuggling up to you if your scruff feels just like straw. And even worse, dry hair will leave your jawline itchy and irritated. Nobody wants that. This No Shave November, moisturize your fuzz with The 2 Bits Man's Spiced Timber Beard Oil.
Consisting of all-natural grapeseed oil, which is noted as being closest to the oils your skin naturally produces, consider this pick an irritation-free way of keeping your locks soft and touchable. As an add bonus, this mixture is also noted to help fight dandruff. And if you're not completely sold on this pick yet, we dare you to take a whiff of its pine and cinnamon fragrance — the perfect blend for the autumn season.
4. Cleanser
For the hygienically-inclined, washing your voluminous beard is a no-brainer. Would you go a month without lathering, rinsing, and repeating on your scalp? Exactly. But why settle for that two-in-one mixture that is lying around your bathroom when you can pick up a cleanser designed for your facial hair? Consider Zeus's Beard Shampoo, a grooming jack of all trades: It'll soften your whiskers, treat dandruff, and is gentle enough to clean your hair without stripping away natural oils or irritating your skin.
While regular soaps and cleansers can wreak havoc on your face, the solution consists of Dragon's Blood, which is not a mystical drink from Game of Thrones. Instead, this key ingredient possesses anti-inflammatory and antibiotic qualities that are built to reduce discomfort and inflammation. And, if you're looking for a subtle fragrance for this season, Zeus's verbena lime is sure to fit the bill.
5. Beard balm
After a few weeks with unruly bristles, you may be tempted to shave the whole thing and write No Shave November off as mission impossible. While we encourage you to stick to your guns and ditch the razor for the entire 30 days, we understand that an untamed beard can put a damper on the whole month.
Enter Honest Amish's Heavy Duty Beard Balm. This all-natural concoction is a chemical-free way to sculpt your beard or mustache into a fashionable shape, versus that wild beard you woke up with. And with a complex blend of essentials oils — virgin argan, avocado, and virgin pumpkin seed oils, to name a few — this product will also double has a great way to hydrate your fuzz.
6. Comb
Are you a caveman? Are you heading on a month-long expedition where you can only pack the essentials? If you said no to the previous questions, there is no excuse not to brush your beard or mustache. Think about what happens to your hair without a 30-second combing session. If it's long enough, the hair can get knotted and even start to turn into dreadlocks. Now think about that happening on your face. Ew.
Allow Huntsman Beard's durable, wooden comb to help this potential facial hair faux pas. Double-sided with fine-tooth and coarse-tooth options, this comb is ideal for any type of beard. Plus, this option comes with a travel bag, making a hypothetical month-long expedition no excuse to leave this behind.
7. Razor
Before you know it, December 1 will roll around and you'll be officially free of No Shave November. While some men may opt for a date with their barber to celebrate the occasion, treating yourself to a luxe shave in the comforts of your home is another option. If you choose the latter, why not pick up a few new products to make this ritual more of a spa-like treatment?
A double-edge safety razor, Merkur's stainless steel option is heavy enough to sliver off all the hair from the past month, not to mention that going back to the basics with a manual razor just feels chic compared to your handy, battery-powered alternative.
But of course, no fancy shave is complete without some pricey cream. Though this may ignite some sticker shock, Acqua Di Parma's shaving cream promises to leave your skin soft and irritation-free. And after a month of pesky hair, you deserve a frills-filled shave. Can we say, "Treat yo' self?"

A soul – tremendously resilient,
Display of fireworks above this town.
The world shatters everyone,
But graciously your heart holds,
Its shattered pieces – close.
Darling! You are a poetry,
A beautifully concealed tragedy.
Two eyes glaring,
Like the sun giving out its fierce heat.
So young & ferocious,
A string of personal disasters.
As if within you,
Is a ball of burning fire.
Or underneath your skin,
The moon resides.
A spectrum of impossible colors,
Is spotted in your rainbow.
Walked the road,
Full of thorns & spikes.
A highway,
That leads to glory & might.
Mindful of the rocks you climbed,
To get to the end of the trail & rise.
The wars you fought,
And never spoke about.
Those silent screams,
No one could hear out.
Played your heartfelt melodies,
By edge of the roughest seas.
Your pain reshaped you – magnificently,
The most exquisite kind of agony.
For nothing can hold a recalcitrant mind,
From breaking the shackles & being set free.
The precious works of art,
A valuable antique.
The rarest wild flower exposed,
Verily you are a Primrose.

DEERFIELD BEACH, FL – 11/2/2016 (PRESS RELEASE JET) — Wrestling fans worldwide were treated to a special comeback in August with the return of The Headbangers – former recipients of the WWE World Tag Team Championship belt, stepping foot into the ring for the first time in over 15 years. After an overwhelmingly positive welcome, Thrasher – a now Youfit® Health Club General Manager by day – and his partner Mosh have been reinvited to partake in yet another match on WWE®'s Smackdown® Live at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey. The event will be televised live on the "USA Network" at 8 p.m. EST.
"Getting back into the ring was an incredible experience. Joining Youfit after my injury surrounded by a supportive team got me to where I am now and kept me healthy and able to continue battling in front of millions", Thrasher said. "I hope that my dreams and goals will continue to inspire others. My story proves that drive and dedication can help you succeed and get back in the 'ring.'"
Known by his staff as Glenn Ruth, the wrestler first became a Youfit member and visited the facility nearly every day, reclaiming his passion for a better, healthier lifestyle. He eventually knocked off more than 70 pounds on his way to returning to peak form. Ruth recognized Youfit Health Clubs as an instrumental piece to his overall recovery, and went on to manage his own club to bring similar possibilities to others.
"I hope to inspire others to continue to fight for their dreams the same way I have," continued Ruth. "I am honored that the WWE wants to bring The Headbangers back after almost 15 years."

BreakQuest Extra Evolution (PSMinis) Review
We liked?
Unexpected mechanics
Not so much?
BreakQuest Extra Evolution is a game that offers hours of gameplay (significantly dependent on your skill level, naturally). There are a ton of different levels, arranged into stages that each have their own boss fight at the end. The levels are colorful, bright, and interesting to look at, not to mention figuring out the mechanics of each one. For a very small price tag, you get a whole lot of game – and it's worth every penny.
This game is psychedelic, man.
Whether you think it has a 1950's sci-fi vibe, or more of a '70's disco groove going on, BreakQuest Extra Evolution is like the Rorschach test of video games. With trippy colors, wild shapes, and all kinds of weird reactions going on, you'll spend just as much time trying to figure out whether one level more resembles Gary from Spongebob or the villain from Samurai Jack. One level's eye popping orange and purple seems to have taken a direct influence from my daughter's unfortunate dance uniform, and another seems to be ripped right off the set of Laugh In. Whatever else you can say about BreakQuest Extra Evolution, they certainly put in the time to make the levels unique, and in more ways than just the colors.
As you might have guessed from the name, BreakQuest Extra Evolution is a breakaway style game. The object is to bounce your ball off the tiles in the design in order to clear them all away, without losing your ball to the abyss. It's pretty standard stuff, and a game style that's as old as most of us. So it's hard to think of ways to revitalize and modernize the game without losing the things that have kept it popular for so many years. BreakQuest Extra Evolution does this well in a lot of different ways. From a variety of wild power ups to trippy environment features that affect the ball in unexpected ways, this is a game that seems entirely new, without losing the charm of the simple breakaway style game.
The biggest difference between BreakQuest Extra Evolution and your traditional breakaway style game is that the tiles (which most of the time are not even tiles) both look and act much differently from the standard "hit the blocks once or twice and they disappear type of game. One of the more challenging aspects of the game is that it is hard at first to even figure out what parts of the design are breakable tiles, and which are just background images. The colors are vibrant and strong on both, and things that look like part of the background often end up to be things you may need to hit multiple times to break.
Some of the more challenging examples of this are things like balls on string. When hit, they spin around, making it both harder to hit them again and likely that your ball will get smashed into the abyss by an errant swing. Some levels might have arms that spin around that aren't breakable, making it extremely difficult to hit tiles above or to the side of them. It becomes a matter of perfect timing to angle your ball just right to avoid the swinging arms while still managing to hit those last few tiles….or a matter of perfect luck to snag a rocket power up that can blast that tile away with no balls needed.
Like traditional break away, you get three balls per level, and you have start over again if you lose them all. There is a rechargeable safety net of sorts, that you run along the bottom of the screen to catch flyaway balls. It is on a timer though, so while it is definitely a help in more challenging levels, it won't be an all the time solution.
The biggest advantage you have in BreakQuest Extra Evolution is the many power ups available to you. They range from really great ones like the aforementioned rockets to multi balls to different ball shapes to some not so great ones like a shrunken paddle, so not only do you have to try frantically to snag those power ups without losing your furiously bouncing ball, you also have to pay attention to make sure you are picking up power ups that you actually want.

There are a ton of different levels, arranged into stages that each have their own boss fight at the end.

The Constitution At Work
It has come to my attention that only registered Google users have been able to comment. After much rousing argument, the First Amendment has prevailed. Feel free to post your comments now, my anonymous little lurkers.
Posted by S at 2:20 PM
Out of curiosity, how did you swing that?
A formidable letter-writing campaign through Google Paper, of course, complete with threats of impending legal action.
Or a setting customizable with the click of a button...that I somehow missed. Oops.

Yooooo. There is no Autumn without travel. I swear if I sit too long in one place, I started getting antsy. I'm looking longingly at other's travel posts online. Don't even get me started on instagram location tags… I can easily lose a few hours browsing those.
I'm always dreaming about visiting faraway places. I spend months saving money to jet off on 14+ hour plane rides to the other side of the world. I even relocated to two other countries. I've traveled outside of the US so many times that it might be surprising that when it comes to travel within the United States… I'm not a seasoned traveler. I've just always been interested in seeing the places that have are so very different than what I know.
However! Now that my husband and I are considering relocating once again overseas, I've been looking at travel in the United States with a different view. There are so many cool places here too that deserve some attention… I'm losing my chance! So… off I go. I started with the easiest location for me. Nashville, IN is a short 40 minute drive from Bloomington and is a gorgeous location for an Indiana day trip!
Oh, where to start? The weird zoo on the ride there (I definitely saw a camel)? The cute little streets filled with charming houses and shops? The candy shop, the ice cream shop? The quirky coffee shop filled with books and games? There was so much to do in Nashville and I loved every minute of it! To make it even better, most of the trees were blooming their beautiful flowers. It just made the street view even more magical.
Nashville is really popular in the fall and spring due to the great weather and foliage. Visiting during winter was nice because you can enjoy the sights without being elbow to elbow with tourists. Since it's almost spring, trees were flowering without the crowd! It was calm and peaceful. I'm such a sucker for flowers in any form so just walking down the streets and seeing the trees with their flowers was my idea of a good time! I bet we could take some epic couple photos there.
We ducked into a coffee shop down an alley and got our caffeine fix in a really unique setting filled with books and games… it reminded me a little of the game cafes in Seoul. This was over-decorated, eclectic and filled to the brim with items. Someone came in and bought eggs from the barista while we were sitting… it definitely has a small town feel!
There were a ton of small shops to browse. The candy shop near the tourism center had a huge selection of candy and I was impressed with how many varieties of black licorice they carried! I bought a few for my husband and made sure to head down the street to the popcorn shop to grab some toffee popcorn, another favorite!
Overall, Nashville was an awesome way to experience the small town vibe. Don't forget to grab some ice cream on the way out of town!

TAMPA, Fla. -- CC Sabathia pitched as if it was already opening day, declaring his readiness to begin the season by throwing 7 2/3 innings of one-run ball to help the New York Yankees beat the Cincinnati Reds, 4-1, on Friday night.
Sabathia gave way to Damaso Marte, who needed to pitch only 1/3 of an inning before Mariano Rivera continued to ease concerns about his surgically repaired shoulder, closing out the game on five pitches in the ninth inning."This is what you kind of envision, when we went out and made the moves we made," New York Yankees manager Joe Girardi said.
New York hoped that Sabathia would go deep in games, thus sparing the Yankees bullpen. On Friday, he threw 93 pitches, allowing just four hits while working into the eighth. He finished with seven strikeouts.
"I'm just trying to get down in the zone, get swings early in the count and get as deep in the game as possible," said Sabathia, who is slated to start opening day. "I feel pretty good. But I've still got things to work on."

State honors elude Green Wave Tournament hopes die for NMHS field hockey, soccer and volleyball
Success was achieved to varying degrees by the Green Wave volleyball, field hockey and boys' and girls' soccer teams.
Yet each team met its demise in state tournament action before it was quite ready for its season to end.
Field hockey
Coach Dawn Hough's young Green Wave played third-ranked Greenwich tough before bowing, 2-0, Nov. 5 in the state 'L' first round (see page S10).
Boys' soccer
Top-ranked Guilford finally closed the book last Friday on the Green Wave's memorable 12-3-3 season in the state 'LL' second round.
Coach James Tong's eighth-ranked NMHS kicks had taken the measure of 25th-seeded Danbury, 2-0, Nov. 3 in a first-round match at home (see photos).
Girls' soccer
Injury upon injury marred the second half of the season for coach Bill Kersten's booters but the Green Wave nevertheless managed an overall 7-10-1 campaign.
Eighth-ranked Ridgefield administered the final blow, 5-0, Nov. 4 in the first round of the state 'LL' tournament.
The Green Wave proved unable to match the heights of last autumn's run to the state 'LL' championship match.
Yet coach Lisa Stein's '08 hardcourt crew distinguished itself to the tune of an overall 15-7 record.
The 11th-ranked NMHS girls easily ousted 22nd-ranked Hartford Public, 25-15, 25-18, 25-22, Nov. 3 at home, but then dropped a Nov. 6 second-round duel with sixth-ranked Fitch, 25-27, 25-18, 27-25, 25-17, in Groton.

Ask Test Masters is a free informational service offered by the experts at Test Masters; you ask, we answer. Shravan, an international student interested in attending graduate school in the United States and abroad, has a few questions about admission requirements and the cost of attendance. Shravan writes,
"I'm pursuing a Bachelor's in Information Technology (3rd year, 2nd semester) and would like to earn my MS in the U.S. or another country. My question is: my average is 60% aggregate and my financials are also not good; if I get a good score on the GRE can I get into at least an average university? Also, which university has the lowest fees for a semester? How much should I pay in total for an MS in the U.S., and how much money will it cost in total? Please give me some suggestions!!!"
Dear Shravan,
Let's talk financials first. The total cost of your graduate education will depend on a number of factors – Better known schools are more expensive than less well known schools, private schools are more expensive than state schools, and certain degree programs are more expensive than other degree programs. Other factors, like the cost of living and financial aid, can impact your total cost of attendance, but are indeterminate. Universities regularly release helpful information regarding tuition and living expenses online, so getting a general idea of how much graduate school will cost is really only a Google search away. Let's take a quick look at two examples of what different types of universities may cost.
The University of Texas at Austin is a well-regarded state school, and generally considered a great value because of its high ranking and low cost. The cost per semester, when taking 12 hours of course work, for an Information graduate student who is a non-Texas resident at UT Austin is $10,830. Now consider Rice University, one of the United States' premiere private research universities; the tuition for a full-time graduate student, regardless of residency status (though international students will have to pay certain fees that may affect the total cost of attendance), in the 2012-2013 academic year is $34,900. Notice that the cost of tuition is significantly higher at the private university than the state university. If you would like to do a detailed search of graduate universities by cost, this website is very useful. To get an idea of what your total tuition costs may be, simply research the cost per semester and multiply by the number of semesters it will take to obtain your degree.
In order to qualify for federal financial aid, international students are required to be US citizens or have permanent resident status, which, of course, makes financial aid for international graduate students extremely rare and very competitive to obtain. That said, it is not impossible to obtain financial aid as an international grad student; edupass.org is an excellent resource to understanding your options when it comes to financial aid. There is also the possibility of obtaining "work-study" employment, where you work for the university (as a Teacher's Assistant or in some other capacity) for a small stipend to help pay for living expenses and tuition costs.
If you are worried that your grades might not be good enough to get you into your university of choice, there are a number of options available to you on how to mold yourself into a competitive graduate school candidate. You can learn more about getting into graduate school with a low GPA here. Remember, a higher GPA improves your chances of being admitted to the graduate school of your choice and drastically increases the likelihood of you obtaining a scholarship or financial aid.
In terms of standardized test scores, you should be focused on two things: the TOEFL and the GRE. The Test of English as a Foreign Language, or TOEFL, is mandatory for international students; its primary purpose is to determine whether you are fluent enough in English to communicate effectively in a classroom environment. You can register for the TOEFL here.
Before pinning your hopes of attending graduate school to achieving a near perfect GRE score, you have to realize the GRE is hard. This exam is designed to challenge people who are not just academically talented, but motivated to succeed. If you need an excellent GRE score to have a chance of getting into your college of choice, the best piece of advice we can offer you is prepare. Practice, study, review and then practice, study, and review some more. You can learn more about how to make your study habits more effective here.
International students are at a disadvantage when it comes to GRE preparation as professional exam preparation is not as widely available internationally as it is domestically in the United States. One excellent resource to consider is a GRE online preparatory course like the one offered by Test Masters.
We hope this helps, and let us know if you have any more questions!
Test Masters offers the most comprehensive GRE preparatory course available. Learn more about professional exam preparation here.
