Across the sciences, the skills required to analyze large data sets, build statistical models, and simulate complex processes are becoming increasingly critical. For example, genomic data sets may consist of millions of sequencing reads from hundreds or thousands of samples. In ecology and earth sciences, researchers are applying new methods for modeling ecological data and assimilating data and models to improve forecasts of ecological and environmental change. In systems biology, scientists are modeling the emergent properties of interacting genes, proteins, cells, and tissues. All of these research areas depend on computational fluency.
The REACT program (Rapid Exposure to Advanced Computational Training) is a short-term initiative to support graduate students to receive the latest training in computational tools and techniques in their field. REACT is a joint effort between the Environmental Change Initiative (ECI), the Eck Institute for Global Health (EIGH), the Genomics and Bioinformatics Core Facility (GBCF), and the Harper Cancer Institute (HCRI). REACT will provide up to $1,300 to cover student tuition, registration, and board required to attend nationally-recognized workshops that provide the latest training in computational approaches.
- The applicant must be a PhD student or thesis Masters student enrolled at Notre Dame.
- The student's advisor/PI must be a member in good standing with either the Environmental Change Initiative, the Eck Institute for Global Health, Notre Dame's Genomics and Bioinformatics Core Facility, or the Harper Cancer Institute. Students should check with their advisors if they are not sure of their PI's affiliations.
- Students attending workshops may be asked to share the knowledge they gain with local working groups, journal clubs, classes, or a symposium of fellow REACT awardees.
- REACT will cover costs for registration, tuition, room and board, up to $1,300. REACT does not cover research expenses or travel costs. Travel costs are expected to be covered by the student's advisor/PI.
Application instructions

More than a decade ago, Michelle Tyree would have been the last person anyone would have expected to see at First Baptist Church. As a young girl, she grew up with two alcoholic parents and a father who abused drugs. "When he would get drunk, he would beat my mom," she says of her father. "She finally ended up divorcing him and married another man who was abusive toward me."
The trauma of her childhood turned Michelle inward, and she learned to depend only upon herself. Looking back, she describes her mindset as "I'm the master of my own domain. I'm the one who's going to decide what I'm going to do with my life. Nobody is going to tell me what is right and wrong." In her mid-twenties, she began dabbling with witchcraft and became a practicing Wiccan. "I read tarot cards for people and we had friends who used to come to our house for money rituals, and it was just really surreal. And it was only because I wanted to be in control of everything."
However, Michelle and her husband, Shane, began to rethink their lifestyle when their daughter Lyndsy was 7 and son Patrick was just a few months old. The Tyrees were hosting a party at their home. "There was a guy [there] who had drunk too much and was basically passed out on the floor, and my son crawled over him," Michelle remembers. "I thought, this isn't the way I want to be raising my children. Everything about this is wrong. And so I went from nothing to 'I'm my own god' to 'there's got to be something out there that will make this better.'"
She found that "something" in church. After that night, Michelle and Shane began a long journey toward the Christian faith. More than a decade ago, their teenage daughter - now Lyndsy Seymour - had been attending Polk Street United Methodist Church with a boyfriend. "My daughter has a beautiful singing voice… and they asked her to sing a solo at church services one day," Michelle says. The Tyrees attended that morning to hear her sing. "Everything was great but when she went to do her solo, the sound system went dead," she remembers. "I know this is going to sound stupid, but in my mind it was God saying, 'You don't need to be listening to your daughter worship if you don't believe in it.'"
That realization stayed with her and they began visiting churches, eventually making their way to First Baptist. Upon first attending, she says, "they had a whole orchestra and they sang the songs that I was familiar with from choir and then when Dr. Batson preached, everything just felt right. And when we were leaving, I said, 'I think we found our church.' The next week we joined."
Today, the Tyrees' children are grown. Lyndsy is married and Patrick is 19, with plans to major in theology and become a missionary in Japan. Michelle, a paralegal, is heavily involved at First Baptist, where she has served on committees and participates in a Women on Missions group.
She says her church services and activities have changed her life. "They center me," she says. "I'm human. I sin. I get jealous. I make mistakes. And I go back to church and I realize, Jesus died for my sins, I messed up but starting right now I have to try better. And this is how I can do that. It gives me hope when I don't have any."
Had she and Shane not found their way into Christianity, Michelle suspects they wouldn't be together today. "Quite honestly, I think my husband and I would have divorced. When you put me first, your life can kind of unravel, but when you put God first, things just kind of fall into place."

I am in a constant struggle with the circles under my eyes. Even with a full 8 hours (which I haven't gotten since grade school) I still wake up looking like Brittany Murphy in Spun. Thankfully, GlamTV has released a how-to video for covering annoying under-eye circles.
The makeup artist advises you to start with a regular concealer (I'm partial to Clinique All About Eyes, $15.50) from the crevice out to the corner of the eye, and then layer a highlighter like YSL's Touch Éclat ($40) on top.
Check out the video for other nifty tips, and you'll be well on your way to looking like you actually sleep once in a while.

News from Hedsor Jazz, Tuesday, 31 October 2017
This Thursday (November 2nd) we have a jazz "special". We are going to celebrate the music of the French gypsy guitarist Django Reinhardt.
This style of music is epitomised by light rhythms and lilting tunes. To help us achieve this our special guests will be guitarists Jezz Cook (lead guitar) and Bill Medcraft (rhythm guitar). With them we have Mike Wills on clarinet, Nigel Fox on keyboard, John Monney on bass and Mike Jeffries on drums. Do give this special flavour of jazz your encouragement, and let people know about it please.
Last weeks session with Stuart Henderson on trumpet and Kelvin Christiane on tenor and flute was a complete knockout. What a superb session. Sadly I didn't get any photos from the evening, but it was the sounds that counted anyway. One of our regulars emailed me next day
"Hi Geoff, A real knock-out night last night, the staggering ability of the soloists was exceptional".
And you get all of this quality of music with free car parking and club drinks prices all for our low admission charge of just £7. AND, something Ronnie Scott's doesn't do, we run a free raffle!
On Thursday November 9th our guest will be Alan Grahame on vibraphone. What more can I say! After his "Celebration of a Life in Music" back in July his fame has grown larger than ever. We are having him again in December when he comes to help celebrate Christmas alongside Tina May and Duncan Lamont jnr. on December 21st. But do grab a slice of his mature energy by coming in November as well.
Thinking back to July, that event was one of the last our leader Clive Burton was able to come and play at. I went to see him, now at home, last Friday. He is very week, bedridden and unable to sit up. He was however very interested in how Hedsor Jazz was doing and I had about ¾ hour of conversation with him. He now recognises his inability to drive, and they have disposed of their car. Do give them a thought, and if you can, say a prayer too. Jan is finding the situation very difficult. Clive's son Roy has been over from Australia but has now had to go back. Whilst here he was a great help to them both.
Hedsor Jazz is determined to carry on, and we are taking greater steps to advertise ourselves than ever before. If you have ideas where a poster can be put, or a paper to get some free coverage from, do speak to either Mike Jeffries or Ian Wallis. We have a complete program until the end of the year, and plans are already afoot for January 2018.
That's it for now folks. I hope to see you ALL on Thursday.

Saracens Edge Victory Over Tough Gloucester
Saracens cemented their place at the top of the Aviva Premiership table with a hard-fought 24-20 victory over Gloucester Rugby.
In a see-saw encounter at a chilly Allianz Park, it was Gloucester who went into the break with their noses in front.
Scores from Ben Morgan and Billy Burns both converted by James Hook, who also added a penalty, sending them into the break 15-17 ahead.
Tries from Brad Barritt and Mike Ellery along with five points from the boot of Alex Lozowski ensured that Mark McCall's men weren't far behind.
Three penalties from the boot of Lozowski after the break proved vital, their guests replying with an effort of their own through Hook and securing a losing bonus point in defeat.
The visitors rocked their hosts early with a score through Morgan after just two minutes. The number 8 powering over from close range after the home side failed to gather the ball at the kick-off.
Despite a positive start from the cherry and whites, who had been piling plenty of early pressure on their opponents, Saracens were able to get themselves back into the game six minutes later. Skipper Barritt charged down Mark Atkinson's clearance kick before re-gathering and scoring under the posts, Lozowski's conversion bringing the game level.
However, the home side's joy was short lived when Burns took full advantage of an uncharacteristic Alex Goode error to dot down for Gloucester's second of the afternoon just moments afterwards.
The end to end rugby continued, Saracens hitting back once again when Ellery danced over in the corner, Lozowski's missed conversion attempt leaving Saracens two points behind their opponents at 12-14 after a frantic opening corner.
Lozowski and Hook exchanged penalties before the break, bringing a yo-yo first half to a close with the score at 15-17 to Gloucester.
The cherry and whites dominated the opening exchanges of the second fourty, going close through Charlie Sharples after a period of sustained pressure inside the Saracens half.
With a new look prop pairing of Titi Lamositele and Juan Figallo, Saracens turned the screw on their opponents in the scrum, earning their side a penalty that Lozowski duly slotted, edging his side into the lead.
The Saracens scrum continued to dominate with Gloucester hooker John Afoa shown yellow for his side's indiscipline at the set piece by referee Greg MacDonald before Lozowski stepped up to provide his side with a further three points.
Hook added another penalty to his tally for the afternoon with just nine minutes remaining, the one point difference setting up a grandstand finish.
Lozowski continued to keep the scoreboard ticking as the game ticked down to its conclusion dissecting the posts with his penalty attempt, before Hook pushed his final attempt wide.
With the scoreboard in the red Gloucester continued to press their opponents a darting run from Thorley but great work on the floor from the Saracens pack secured the turnover and a hard-fought victory in front of the Allianz Park faithful.

If you find it difficult to get through your day without taking a nap, you may need to make some changes to your lifestyle. Different from fatigue, sleepiness or drowsiness involves restless sleep patterns at night, which result in being tired during the day. If your doctor has ruled out sleep disorders, then altering your daytime behaviors and patterns may help you to sleep more soundly and have more energy during the day.
Create a comfortable sleeping space. Trying to sleep in a room that is too hot or too cold, has a hectic feel to it or is noisy can greatly interfere with obtaining quality sleep at night, leaving you feeling sleepy during the day. Paint your bedroom in soothing colors, such as a soft blue, adjust the temperature and drown out any excess noise with a fan.
Buy a comfortable mattress and pillows. The correct level of firmness is subjective to each person, but purchase bedding that is inviting and allows you to relax.
Stick to a sleep schedule seven nights a week. Training your body to go to bed and wake up at the same time every day can help to set your body's sleep-wake cycle.
Limit the amount of caffeine that you consume during the day. Caffeine can backfire on you by staying in your system too long and affecting your ability to fall asleep or stay asleep through the night. Caffeine in the morning is usually acceptable but be aware of how drinking coffee, tea or soda in the afternoon affects your sleep patterns.
Avoid nicotine and alcohol, both of which are stimulants and can affect your quality of sleep, leaving you to feel drowsy during the day.
Eat a healthy diet that consists of fresh fruit and vegetables, whole grain carbohydrates, lean proteins and unsaturated fats. Sugar, white flour and saturated fats can place stress on your body, which can lead to a feeling of sleepiness.
Exercise regularly during the day. Working out can relieve stress and help you to sleep more soundly at night. Avoid exercising close to bedtime since exercise can also give you a boost of energy.

Buy power banks have now become an essential gadget for keeping us going in today's age of smart phones. Many a time we tend to be perplexed while purchasing portable chargers for our smart phones. Even though we know whatever we wish for but we don't really know what the power bans would deliver to us.
Below are the 5 most common mistakes which we generally make while selecting power banks for our smart phones.
Buying cheap and Unbranded power banks just because for the fact that they're cheap.
While purchasing smart phones we many a times buy the phones which are very cheap, but also have a good battery backup. Now the question is why we do this. We don't really compromise with the quality of the smart phones. Then why should we compromise with the quality of portable chargers.
Why should you consider buying high quality chargers?
Purchasing high quality portable chargers or known brands are always a good idea. Even if it is expensive as compared to the branded charges as it would help in ensuring a much better safety to our smart phones in future.
1) The power capacity is small sometimes
A very common mistake that people while purchasing is choosing the one with very less power efficiency. A simple guide whom you need to follow will be to purchase portable chargers that are at least of the similar power efficiency.
2) Purchasing an incompatible power-bank
While we set-off for purchasing portable chargers for our phones, we importantly need to look for some compatibility just without smart phones, but we tend to avoid other gadgets which may also be recharged with the help of portable chargers. Thus, you should make sure that you buy good quality chargers and that too from reliable sellers.
Thus, it's advisable to adjust with a portable power bank that's compatible with not only your smart phones, but even your e-readers, iPads, etc.
3) Ignoring the features of safety and settling for a cheap brand
While buying power banks, you shouldn't ignore the ones which come with the features of protection such as short-circuit protection, over charging as well as over discharging protection and settling for cheap power banks.
4) Being carried away because of the looks of the power banks
You may purchase power banks, which match the looks of your phones or other gadgets, but this shouldn't be the sole reason for overlooking the features of your portable chargers.
You should always consider the ones which have good specifications for ensuring that it matches correctly the needs of your electrical devices which it would be charging.
So these are the most common mistakes which most of us make while buying the power banks. If you really want to give your phone a good charger you should consider avoiding these mistakes.
Conclusion – There are some very common mistakes which we make while buying portable power bank online. But actually we really need to avoid all these mistakes. Because if we make even one of any of these mistakes, it may not be such a good idea for our smart phone.

In a first experiment, the authors found that eye velocity during pursuit initiation was higher for a target associated with a larger reward. This finding is in line with the results obtained for saccadic eye movements, i.e. larger reward elicits faster eye movements (Takikawa et al. 2002).
Finally, the influence of reward on smooth pursuit learning was also investigated. In smooth pursuit experiment, learning is induced by a change in target direction 250ms after target motion onset. After a few trials, the eyes start to move in the new direction before the target does. Learning appeared to be faster and larger when the large reward target was presented compared to the small reward target.
One way to probe the learning is to suddenly remove the change in target direction in order to observe the predictive motor response (catch trials). If the amount of reward influenced the learning, one would expect that the response in probe trials with similar reward would depend on the amount of reward in learning trials (reward in probe and learning trials could vary independently). In the probe trials, the response only depended on the reward at the end of those trials, not whether the learning took place with a small or large reward target. This suggest that the amount of learning was not influenced by the reward size during the learning.
All in all, this paper highlights the differential role that reward can have on motor behavior. It largely biases target selection while it has a minor influence on motor behavior and motor learning.

Heather Locklear Out of Rehab and Sober, Source Says (Exclusive)
Heather Locklear is out of rehab.
A source close to the actress tells ET that Locklear is back home and sober, after entering rehab earlier this month following her arrest for one count felony domestic violence and three counts misdemeanor battery on a police officer.
The source also says, however, that the Melrose Place star is back with her boyfriend, Chris Heisser, who was involved in the enounter that led to her February arrest. "Heather came out of rehab and went straight back into the arms of Chris Heisser," the source shares.
"They are like oil and water, fighting nonstop," the source continues, adding that her family wants to see her and Heisser part ways.
"Her family wants to see her focus on her health and sobriety and once that's in place, she can then start fresh with a new man," the source reveals. "Right now, Heather is sober and she is in therapy. She is taking it one day at a time."
As for Locklear's daughter, 20-year-old Ava Sambora, the source says their relationship is a work in progress. "Ava is hurt and angry that her mother is taking steps backwards" by going back to Heisser, the source claims. "Ava is coping as she always does because she has no choice … Ava deals with a lot of anxiety."
Locklear was arrested on Feb. 25 after a domestic violence call was reported at a residence. In an initial investigation, police allege that she had battered Heisser at the residence prior to their arrival. During the arrest, police say Locklear allegedly became combative and uncooperative, and allegedly battered three deputies.
A few hours after Locklear's arrest, Heisser was arrested on a driving under the influence charge in Thousand Oaks, California. He was cited and released shortly after.
A source told ET earlier this month that Locklear believed "this whole situation is just one big mistake." "[She's] blaming her brother for making the call to the police," the source claimed. "She also thinks her boyfriend [Chris Heisser] has blown everything out of proportion."
ET has reached out to Heisser, as well as representatives for Locklear, including her attorney, for comment.

When you go to the dentist, you expect to receive the best quality care from a highly trained professional; you never expect to be on the receiving end of malpractice. Unfortunately, just as with other licensed healthcare providers, dental professionals may be guilty of negligence when they fail to provide adequate care, or when they perform unnecessary and potentially damaging procedures.
If you suspect that you may have been the victim of medical negligence or misconduct by a dental care provider, a West Palm Beach dental malpractice lawyer from the Law Offices of Casey D. Shomo can help you determine whether you have a case.

- Improper extraction of teeth
- Wrongfully administered anesthesia
- Failure to properly clean tools, leading to infection
- Failure to diagnose or the misdiagnosis of oral conditions
- Inadequate record keeping of a patient's medical history
- Negligently performed procedures
- Performing unnecessary procedures
- Lack of informed consent, or failing to properly inform you of risks associated with certain procedures
Results of Dentist Negligence
If you've been on the receiving end of dental malpractice, you could be facing a number of potential complications, such as the following:
- Permanent damage to the jaw or nerve endings in the mouth
- Infection after oral surgery
- Structural damage
- Loss of feeling or taste
- Loss of teeth
Your costs related to a dental negligence case can be far-reaching. Our firm will examine all the expenses you may incur, from current and future medical expenses to lost wages and diminished earning capacity to intangible damages like pain and suffering.
An experienced West Palm Beach dental malpractice lawyer can shoulder the burden of your case and fight for the compensation you deserve.

After a string of documentaries, including In the Realms of the Unreal, and an Academy Award win for Best Documentary Short, Jessica Yu makes an unlikely, deceptively slight narrative feature debut with Ping Pong Playa. What's perhaps most surprising about the film, however, is that Yu (who has also directed a fair amount of television drama) is actually quite adept as a comedy director. Adhering to well-worn underdog sports humor, her film follows the slow, amiable rise of Christopher "C-dub" Wang, a slacking Asian American with more of a penchant for the urban culture of hip-hop and basketball than for his family's business and passion: ping-pong.
The film coyly announces itself as a character comedy of indie pedigree in its first act, as C-dub advises his eleven-year old friend Felix that "unless you want to become the Chinese Napoleon Dynamite, get out of ping pong." Whether this line is intended to foster or preempt Ping Pong Playa's most obvious pull-quote, C-dub's self-deprecating, yet highly revealing advice says a lot about the film. The plot will, of course, be all but dispensable: C-dub's slacking inadvertently threatens his family's ping pong supply business and reputation for expertise in the sport, and so he must step up his ping pong game, coaching a band of young table tennis misfits and winning the National "Golden Cock" Table Tennis Tournament (and, in the process, "the girl") in order to save the day. With this paper-thin pretext, the film rests entirely on the shoulders of an abrasive, clueless, yet oddly charming protagonist.

Spring in the UK is typically known for being the 'wedding season'. All the shops are bringing out their wedding outfits or themed products. It is really a beautiful time of the year and after being involved in my mums wedding recently I have been really appreciating it all a bit more now and can't wait for the day I can plan my own!
When the guys from homesense got in touch about a collaboration on their wedding collection I couldn't resist. Although my mums wedding has now been and gone, I have found myself a bit addicted to wedding planning. I may or may not have created a wedding board on Pinterest and kept it private just for the fun of it!
I walked into to my local homes be store recently to check out their wedding collection and I fell in love. From decorations, wedding stationary to gift ideas they have it all covered. It is all so beautiful and chic – I could have bought it all. Whether you are decorating an old barn all by yourself or you just need a few little ornaments for centre pieces for a classy hotel wedding, there is something for every sort of wedding.
One of the best parts of a wedding is getting to make it personal with all those little touches and attention to detail; flowers, table centre pieces, table numbers and seating plans. There is so much to think about when organising a wedding and homesense definitely has it all covered. As I always mention with homesense and TKMaxx once you see something in there you really do need to grab it because you never know if they will stock it again, this can be annoying but you can also pick up so beautiful one offs and some great bargain finds.
I absolutely loved this gold polka dot bunting. This would be perfect table decorations for a wedding venue or even to make your home look cute for the morning getting ready pictures. The gold theme in wedding stationary is very big at the moment and I love it! Homesense have a whole section dedicated to wedding stationary, with invites, bunting, thank you cards etc…
They have some amazing pieces which would make perfect gifts too such as their beautiful range of candles. Some beautiful, luxury scents which would make a perfect gift for a newly weds home. Or some luxury Italian champagne glasses to celebrate their day. Not to mention their huge range of photo frames too.
Homesense really does offer so many beautiful bits. It's definitely a shop to consider when organising a wedding or even if you are going to a wedding and want to find the perfect gift for the happy couple. There's such a wide range of things to choose from and lo luxury, high quality products at a discounted price.
Are you planning a wedding? Have you been to Homesense recently?
Anna X
*I was provided with a gift card to purchase these items for PR purposes.

What is GROW?
Georgia Reaches Out to the World (GROW) is an initiative of Fulbright Association GA Chapter, that promotes mutual understanding between the people of the United States and people of the world through panel discussions, conferences, seminars, workshops, presentations, and research on Health, Education, and Peace.
GROW is collaboratively working with universities, businesses, institutions, media, and entrepreneurs in Georgia to promote and advocate for health, education, and peace in the world.
Program objectives
The purpose of GROW is to:
- Connect and coordinate with FPAs at universities in Georgia to hold Fulbright awareness events at campuses: (in person and through skype or webinars)
- Discuss health, education and peace challenges and find solutions through panel discussions, seminars, and workshops at universities in the US and share the results with universities, and institutions in developing countries.
Pannel Discussion Program
Panel discussion general topics will include, but not be limited to health, education, and peace. Focusing on one topic at a time, panelists will take part in discussions based on their research area, interest, work, or field of study. National and International Fulbright alumni, scholars, and students will be granted an opportunity to share experiences about their scholarship, major, country, culture, and future goals and research. Panel Discussion will be moderated by a GA Chapter Board of Directors or participants of attending school/sponsoring institution. The pilot project will start at UGA in January, 2018.
A special guest will be invited for each panel discussion. The special guest will be of the following people: leadership of the school which provides venue, leadership of National Fulbright Association, IIE, and local leaders, scholars, and delegates of consulate/embassies of the countries being presented in the panel. The results of panel discussions will be compiled and possibly published as written, video, or podcast so that national and international researchers, students, policy makers, and more importantly, ordinary citizens can benefit from.
The panel discussion time will be one and a half hours and panelists will be asked to send a brief (half-page) biography to the moderator at least two weeks prior to panel discussion date.
- During the first 15 minutes the panel moderator will introduce the panelists reading a short bio of each panelist.
- Each panelist will be given 15 minutes to talk.
- 15 minutes will be given for the special guest to talk about the importance of such gatherings and relevant topic.
- The last 15 minute will be dedicated for audience to ask questions.
Audience will be national and international students, faculties, administrative staff of the attending school, community members, and Chapter members. Panel Discussions will be held every 6-8 weeks depending on availability of the venue and school schedule. It will be an ongoing project since each year new Fulbright students will join. 50-70 participants are expected to come in each panel discussion.

In America the wind doesn't blow…….it sucks.
Be forewarned, this blog can get nasty, as in, viscous, venomous, and vile. When it comes to the US government, I pull no punches. This is an ongoing project, as long as we have friggin idiots running this country into the ground, I'll be ranting and raving, and carrying on, and going off, and venting all my pent-up disdain for the retched, putrid, dysfunctional, retarded, criminal enterprise we call government, although a piss-poor example of a government, that's what it's called.
Obama, or whatever his real name is, is the most tragic event to happen to this nation. A one man wrecking machine, a criminal, the likes of which haven't been seen before. A "constitutional scholar", MY ASS. This guy knows less about the Constitution than my ass. He and the wicked bitch of the east, were both disbarred for unknown reasons, the ol' man is a Chicago thug who's "movin on up to the east side", and brought Chicago politics to Washington DC (district of criminals). What a POS. And Holder, where the f*ck did he come from? The USDOJ is the most corrupt cesspool of criminality imaginable. "Fast and furious", no, gun running. "A dumb mistake", NO, a serious crime. Like, identity theft, or fraud, or even forgery. Oh, wait, that's his boss. The biggest national security emergency this country's ever seen, and, no law enforcement agency will touch it. Congress, holy shit what a bucket of retards. Maybe to them the oath of office is meaningless, but to me, it means everything. It shows integrity, or lack of, honesty, or not, respect, not only to themselves, but this nation. And, the LIES from this administration, the constant, continuing, blatant lies, are staggering. My god, nothing from that mans mouth even resembles the truth. Why do we feel the need to pay someone to lie their ass's off to us? And why so much? Hell I'll lie to you for a lot less. As many lies as you want, about anything you want, for a small fee, I'll even lie to the person of your choice.
The NDAA, Who came up with this horrendous joke? In essence, a declaration of war on the American people. And the world for that matter. Obama is trippin on some heavy hallucinogens thinking this abortion would fly. When the rest of the world wakes up and realizes that Obama has given himself the power to go into any country, hunt down suspected "terrorists" and blow the snot of four city blocks with high tech, heat seeking, laser gilded, auto-ranging, night vision, infra red, depleted uranium, retina scanning, urine testing, hellfire missiles, launched from a drone piloted from forty thousand miles away by some kid that couldn't land a McDonalds job.

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas! I had a fab day with my family and I'm now super excited for New Year (and my 19th birthday woohoo).
I'm currently sat in my family's new holiday cottage in Wales and listening to The Sugababes (and reminiscing when I saw them live in Derby when I was at Primary School..what a time to be alive). I'm also attempting to get an essay done, but as you can probably tell I am getting a little distracted. Just a bit.
I've been home for over a week now! After I transported my stuff back from Uni in a mere 20 bags (my step-dad counted), I finally made it back. I haven't actually spent much time at home yet though...I went to London with my friend for a few days, where we had a lovely Christmassy time. Then I was home for three days over Christmas, and on Boxing Day we traveled to Wales (through a lot of rain). My family only bought the cottage a few months ago so there is a lot of work to be done...I've spent today painting (very badly...at one point I accidentally sat in the pot of paint) and learning how to lay carpets. All fun.
I was warned about this, but it is really strange settling back in to life at home. But...at the same time, it feels normal and it's strange to think that I'm actually at Uni. If that makes any sense. For example when my little sister woke me up on Christmas morning (at 7....Grrr), I randomly had it in my head that it was a 'school day' and it wasn't until I heard "ANNA SANTA HAS BEEN" that I realised that I'm not even at school any more. How strange. I feel like I can settle back in to being at home really easily, but it might be a tad harder when I'm going back to Uni. I am missing Corp Wednesday's though. A lot. (If you are unsure about this phenomenon, please google, and then get to Sheffield for a top notch night out. You won't regret it).
I've got four exams in January which I'm trying not to think about at the moment. I know a a month off seems like AGES but I haven't yet managed to schedule any revision in to my time off. *Thinks about something else*
I think that's about all the updates I have! I hope you are all having a relaxing, well-deserved break.

P.s December's Blogger of the Month comp is coming to an end, but you can still vote for me here until the end of the month :)
P.p.s I thought I would share with you my little sister's reaction when she realised that Santa had also visited the cottage in Wales....She really is emotionally invested in the whole Christmas thing.

Kim Kardashian posts racy twerking clip
Kim Kardashian is once again showing off her booty while on
vacation in Mexico.
The 35-year-old reality star posted a racy clip of herself
twerking in honor of her pal Hrush Achemyan.
"In honor of @styledbyhrush birthday a month ago LOL,"
Kardashian wrote, along with the clip of herself twerking in a pool. "She taught me how 2 twerk on this trip so I posting it for her."
The mom of two has also been generous in sharing lots of sexy
snaps with her followers and hinted it's going to get even racier.
"Have I posted a nude selfie since I lost all my baby weight?" she teased earlier this month.
"I don't think so. Get ready!"
"[I post nude selfies] because I feel good about myself," she explained."You can just get so caught up in not wanting to be motivated, so I made it a really important thing for my confidence and for me to feel good."

Hi Everyone!
Happy Humpday! Hope you're having a killer day! Okay, okay. I'm obsessed with this hat. And boots. And I wear them a lot. But as for the hat, ya'll know i've been having a war with my hair. But that's for another post...
Anyway, this dress is light and breezy. Unexpected color for moi, but I dig it. Perfect for a Sunday brunch or to wear to work. I'm always into versatility.
This evening i'll be en route to Los Angeles as i'm SO excited to announce I won a trip to visit the PopSugar studios from the LuckyFabb conference a few weeks back!! I'm wildly thankful for this amazing opportunity and I seriously can't wait to meet the ShopStyle gang.
So, with that said...what the hail do I wear!? Any advice, tips, etc. would be much appreciated.
Until tomorrow!

I like small models as much as the next builder and I can be captivated by a compact design with a low part-count. I know that bigger doesn't always mean better…I just hate it when snarky wannabe-architect dickheads who couldn't build big if they had an entire Merlin model shop at their disposal, feel the need to point it out. Good building is good building, regardless of the scale. So let's take a hard look at a model that could easily fit in the palm of your hand and slip past your radar in the sea of crap we see on Flickr each day.
First and foremost, it's got a backpack! It's a widely held belief that backpacks make every model at least 42% better, and Atahlus even manages to make the oversized pack look great. My only complaint is that it should have some kind of tool or accessory sticking through one of the side-loops. I can imagine this thing in a setting inspired by everything from Futurama to Akira, The 5th Element to Firefly.
What I like best about the design is that it practically begs for variants and different color schemes. I can imagine work versions, sport versions and two-seat extended cabs. I've got to fight the urge to make one of these, because Matango is a harsh mistress and she will not be ignored for the sake of this "Hoverbikethingy", as the builder so sadly calls it. Come on dude, your baby deserves a better name. May I humbly suggest "The Jacobin"? Too esoteric? How about "Hover-Dingus"?
In case you're wondering about the quote in the title, it comes from an episode of Futurama, written and sung by Seth Macfarlane.

With that said it is a long way before anything can be nailed down as a "sure thing" says those who are involved in the process with state Fish and Wildlife and co-managers. That came to light after a conference call on Friday between sport fishing advisors and state fish managers. The computer models ran by state Fish and Wildlife look good and came under the total allowable threshold. They included some newly proposed fisheries that were discussed at the salmon forecast meeting two weeks ago such as expanding the northern Puget Sound selective hatchery chinook fishery opening date from July 13 to July 1, and turning some Puget Sound areas and the eastern Strait of Juan de Fuca to hatchery-marked chinook fisheries. The model and other related issues will come to light at the next North of Falcon salmon fisheries meeting 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., Monday, March 12 at the state Fish and Wildlife Offices in Olympia at the Natural Resources Building, 1111 Washington St. S.E., Room 172.

Housing Choice Voucher Households and Neighborhood Quality: A Case Study of Harris County, Texas
MetadataShow full item record
Affordable housing programs are critical in increasing low-income citizens' quality of life. The Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) program, one of the major affordable housing programs since 1974, purportedly helps low-income tenants to attain better housing and neighborhood conditions by allowing households to rent units on the private rental market. The greatest advantage of the HCV program is that it offers voucher holders the possibility to choose rental units in their preferred areas. The primary aim of the HCV program is to ensure that subsidized households such as low-income families, senior citizens, and disabled people can reside in decent homes and in neighborhoods with good opportunities, as is the case for general renters. By adopting a quasi-experimental design, this research assesses locational outcomes for income-qualified households in Harris County, Texas: one of the largest housing markets in the nation. It compares locational outcomes for a list of HCV holders' addresses to those of a list of households which qualified for HCV but remained on the waiting list. The findings indicate that the HCV program's Fair Market Rents (FMRs) and Income Limits (ILs) likely restricted HCV households to neighborhoods that are not significantly different from those to which households without vouchers have access. In other words, receiving an HCV subsidy does not notably change the locational outcomes of the recipient households. The comparison analysis between HCV tenants and waitlisted renters shows similar patterns concerning neighborhood-quality levels. This finding stands in contrast to a comparison between the neighborhoods that are accessible to these recipients and those living in units provided by the Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program, as well as those neighborhoods in which average renters live. This research aims to provide policy recommendations for planners and policy makers in order to guide practical strategies by which to improve the HCV program criteria and thereby help to alleviate current market constraints on HCV residents.

Authors: Eduard Nicolae BUDACU
Abstract. The usage of metrics is considered important to track improvements of agile teams so developing a system to analyze performance is a sign of maturity in the process. Agile Software Development (ASD) promotes working software as the primary way of measuring progress. This has led to a more outcome oriented set of metrics rather than tracking lines of code to estimate productivity. In this paper a background research is performed with the purpose to identify what kind of metrics, measures and tools software development teams use in relation with agile and lean methodologies. A case study is presented based on data gathered in a software outsourcing company.

McDonald's now gives customers wooden cutlery which includes spoons, stirrers, knives, and forks instead of plastic ones.
Plastic cups have been replaced by superior quality paper cups. The straws are either made of paper or other biodegradable bioplastics made from corn starch.
Hardcastle Restaurants is also working on alternative solutions for its delivery segment.
These decisions should be seen as the result of plastic bans in Indian cities.
Ranjit Paliath, Senior Vice President, Business Operations & Restaurant Enablement at Hardcastle Restaurants made the following statement.
"As the leader in the Quick Service Restaurant space in India, we are committed to using our scale for good and working towards finding sustainable solutions across our business. This is in line with McDonald's global vision of building a responsible business."
Closing Remarks
On one hand, India is not a priority for many Bioplastics companies. On the other hand, India has ignored its environmental problems for a very long time but this is over. India is waking up and may well become the next sustainability champion.
The substitution of plastic cutlery with wooden cutlery and the replacement of plastic straws and cups with paper items mean 2 things:
- the disruption of the traditional plastic industry is a reality; and
- the incapacity of the bio-based plastics sector to be perceived as a sustainable alternative to fossil plastics.


text: While undone and natural beauty continue to rule the runway, the gentlemen of Proenza Schouler presented a refreshing counterpoint. The look, a slick and thick single braid was inspired by images of Frida Kahlo and documentary photos of Cuban women. Braids were a consistent theme throughout all of the photos, so the beauty team created a Cuba-by-way-of-New York City plait. The models' hair was gathered at the nape of the neck in a low ponytail and woven into a thick, flat braid. Still wanting a Proenza touch, the final style was made to look lived-in by way of a rough center part. The style wonderfully showcased the collection's dangling earrings and high-collared silhouettes offering a fresh dose of artistic confidence.
