Let's Make a Deal for Justin Morneau
by, 07-03-2012 at 12:32 PM (1322 Views)
Another week closer to the trade deadline, another week worth of rampant speculation and wild hopes for Twins fans; after several days of heated voting the fans chose to trade Matt Capps rather than keep him, stunning the blog-o-sphere...oh wait! Let's see what the fans picked and what they passed up.
Door #2 netted two votes and provides my personal favorite proof of idiotic trades made for "closers" Capps compares well with Ugueth [namesake of my first child boy OR girl] Urbina and at roughly the same age in a mid-season trade Urbina netted the Texas Rangers less impressive talents like Will Smith [not the rapper] and Ryan Snare [not that guy who sat behind you in 11th Grade history], but did yield a first baseman you might have heard of: Adrian Gonzalez. Sure the Rangers sent him off to San Diego (and thence to Boston) but still, might be nice to have a bat like that to cover up Mauer/Morneau in years to come. 2 votes...not happening for the Twin Cities
Door #3 got the same number of votes as door #2 and proves that quantity is not necessarily quality, as these candidates turn into Mick Pageler, Mike Villano, and YES IT's true! Joe Fontenot...making this the obvious ZONK! 2 votes....OOOPS!
Door #1 was the choice of our voters, despite that fact that it required another pitcher [Jeff the Vulture Gray], still this deal would lead to the Twins acquiring players like Chuck Tiffany [pause to let everyone say "who?"] but would also net starting pitcher/All-Star/World Champion Starter Edwin Jackson...of course he's a Scott Boras client so the likelihood of keeping him once Free Agency hit is anybodies guess. 3 votes gets us a #2 starting pitcher...NICE JOB FANS!!
For our next "Let's Make a Deal" we'll look at what you could get for one of the most hotly debated trading chips the Twins have: local favorite and former MVP Justin Morneau. I offer the options, you vote in the poll on our blog, or in the comments below (it makes us feel warm and fuzzy inside), next week I reveal what you came away with.
Alright, we all know what Justin can do when healthy, the only question is whether or not he's really healthy. The good news is that, behind one of these doors of similar players traded there's a border-line Hall of Famer, but where? Let's sneak a peak behind the curtain as we try to make a deal (remember, you can always vote to keep Justin if you prefer).
Behind Door #1 there's a right handed starting pitcher (20) in A ball whose cut his WHIP down to 1.17 and has a K/BB ratio that's been consistently over 3.5 in his three years of pro ball, as well as a slim short stop (22) in AA who has posted an OBP over .300 at every stop of the minors, his defense is not always consistent, but shows improvement, and both can be yours if you MAKE A DEAL!
Behind Door #2 there's an AA Outfielder (23) who posted near highs in Doubles, OBP, and Slugging in his first full season at the higher level, and a Lefty Starter (22) ranked a top 75 prospect by Baseball America who jumped from Low A directly to AAA and boasts a K/9 rate of 6. All this for just one little Canadian First baseman if you MAKE A DEAL!
And finally behind Door #3 we have major league ready talent. Start with a versatile outfielder (26) who spent almost all of last year with the major league club succeeding on 70% of his stolen base attempts and getting on base at a percentage over .300. We've also got a former first round pick, a right handed pitcher (23) whose minor league numbers include an ERA perpetually under 3, a WHIP consistently under 1.5, and profiles to move beyond his 11-11 record last year. And there's another Righty Starter in AAA (23) who just posted a career best 3.3 K/BB Ratio, and made a few appearances out of the big-league bullpen. Yes, this cornocopia of prospects can be yours when you MAKE A DEAL!
So what will it be would-be-GMs out there? Keep Justin Morneau, or trade him for Door #1, Door #2, or Door #3!?!?

The Better Travel Photos Blog
Our blog is a source of photography advice and news about events. We focus of course on Paris and London, but much of our advice can be practiced anywhere. Read the latest posts below or visit The BTP Blog:
Mystery and fame in documentary "Finding Vivian Maier"
In the age of digital photography and the Internet, where taking thousands of pictures and sharing them online with the whole world does not surprise anyone, it is hard to imagine a talented photographer, who took over 100,000 images throughout her life, never showing any or her work to anyone. This is why the discovery of an immense photographic archive of stunning images by American nanny and street photographer Vivian Maier has become a sensation far outside the photographic world...
Emmet Gowin at HCB Foundation
Once again, the Fondation Henri Cartier-Bresson invites photography lovers to discover yet another universe, this time that of a prolific American photographer Emmet Gowin. Entitled simply "Emmet Gowin", the exhibit presents a collection of photographs covering all the main themes of his life that he continued exploring for decades: his beloved wife, the intimacy of their everyday life, as well as aerial and landscape photographs.
Chasing Lightning: Tips for Photographing Storms
If thunderstorms visit your area every once in a while, as a photographer, you might want to capture this magnificent lightning show. Although it might sound challenging, anyone armed with a good tripod and a camera can produce some stunning results. Recently, we were lucky to observe a magnificent thunderstorm in Paris. Inspired by this storm, we decided to put together some tips on how to photograph lightning that you can try at home or while traveling...
8 ways to include people in your photos
One thing I hear all the time when we start a photography workshop is "I want to learn how to add people in my photos". It is not unusual to be uncomfortable taking photos of total strangers, whether it is a simple case of shyness or not knowing how to approach someone you want to photograph because of language barrier. With some patience and practice, it becomes easier to photograph people in the streets or wherever you happen to be. Here are 8 tips to get you inspire you and help you get started...
Exhibit: World Press Photo Awards 2014
Visiting World Press Photo Awards 2014 exhibit is like witnessing the most important news of the past year. News that can be exciting or overwhelming, shocking or sad, they represent the events that have happened in the world throughout the year. As World Press Photo Foundation states, "We exist to inspire understanding of the world through quality photojournalism." And we, the viewers, come to admire the talent and courage of those who captured these events with such striking clarity, telling a story of life through their powerful images.
"Learn" serendipity for compelling photos
Paris is not only the City of Light, but also the city of discoveries. Its busy streets are full of life day and night, which makes it a perfect place for street photography. However, in order to get some really compelling photos, spiced up with a bit of magic, one needs some luck and that is where serendipity can help. Known as one of the most difficult English words to translate, serendipity means the accident of finding something good without looking for it. As one might guess, it is essential for urban photography...
Keukenhof garden is a festival of colours for photographers
Spring is a time of renewal. Days are getting longer and warmer, nature wakes up and colours come back. If you are in need of a real colour boost, renewed creativity and lots of photography, the Keukenhof garden in the Netherlands might be just the place for you. The garden is spetacular and the photo opportunities are extraordinary.

Nathan Vardi, Forbes Staff
Following the money trail
With Greg Smith's resignation letter in the opinion pages of the New York Times, the world has a front row seat to watch the midlife crisis of a
high-level executive at Goldman Sachs.
Smith, who apparently was not very high-level, is obviously disappointed about where his promising life has taken him. He pulled himself up with hard work all the way from South Africa. With the same determination that led him to ping pong glory at the Maccabiah Games, he got a scholarship to go to America and Stanford University. He is smart enough to be able to tell us that he was a Rhodes Scholar finalist!
But after making the decision to go to Wall Street, it took him until 2012—almost 12 years after signing up at Goldman Sachs—to figure out there was something "toxic" going on. Somehow during the credit boom years when Smith was banking big bucks that no doubt have set him up for life the state of affairs wasn't as bad as it is now at Goldman. Smith had a lot of "love" for the place during that period, when Goldman played an important role in the Wall Street machine that nearly brought down the world.
The way Smith tells it, his decision to work on Wall Street was pure and good, driven by his desire to best help his huge hedge fund clients. But somehow Goldman recently lost its way in helping two of the planet's biggest hedge fund managers earn 20% performance fees.
Smith is not the first person who wants to tell his former bosses to shove it. He is also not a whistleblower. He remained happily employed at Goldman after it took a massive taxpayer bailout. He stuck around to enjoy the firm's $45 billion of 2009 revenues after Goldman got $10 billion from the Treasury Department's Troubled Asset Relief Program and sold $29 billion of low-cost bonds backed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation's Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program. Goldman was also allowed to become a bank holding company and borrow cash from the Federal Reserve's discount window for just about nothing while riding the yield curve the Fed had set up. Smith stayed for all that.
If what Smith is saying today is true, then the biggest problem remains the "muppets." Not Kermit or Gonzo, but the investors that Smith claims continue to buy garbage from Goldman. Until those clients start to take responsibility for themselves, Goldman will remain incentivized to sell stuff to them.
One of the root causes of the mortgage nightmare, the CDO disaster, Madoff, and Stanford, was investor gullibility. Today, those investors like to blame the banks and the rating agencies for their roles. Goldman Sachs has paid a record $550 million fine to settle SEC charges it misled investors in a product it created. Its execs have been paraded in front of Congress and berated for literally selling shit. If those investors are not already entering into Goldman deals carefully now, they never will.

The Real Problem At Goldman Sachs? You, The Muppet Client
To Save Goldman Sachs, Lloyd Blankfein Must Go
Greg Smith's Letter To Goldman Sachs Is Straight Out Of Mad Men
He is not a "high level executive". He was a VP on the derivatives desk in Europe. If you understood investment banking, which you quite obviously do not, you would know that "VP" means "junior banker that survived the first four years".
His assertios are the most comical of cliche's. My favorite is the one where Goldman is "selling clients the stocks it wants to get rid of". The preponderance of equities that Goldman sells is as an agent, not as a principle. That the green-bean Greg Smith does not understand this (or that Forbes does not understand this) is absurd. That the NYT does not understand I can forgive, for they are socialists.
The real story here is that Greg Smith was passed over for promotion, got angry, and flew off the handle, posting a missive with the accommodating NYT that he will soon regret. Why? Because the only employment Mr Smith will be able to garner is in the department of motor vehicles, Burger King or Starbuck's
He's credited as "executive director and head of the firm's United States equity derivatives business in Europe, the Middle East and Africa."
I think you really just reinforced Smith's message.
I also wish people would stop using "socialists" as a slur, rather than its true meaning.
I know right!
This article just makes Greg Smith's point for him!
"He was a VP on the derivatives desk in Europe. If you understood investment banking, which you quite obviously do not, you would know that "VP" means "junior banker that survived the first four years"."
That says more about the world of investment banking than you realize.
Yeah, we all know there are only four places to work: Banks, the DMV, Burger King, and Starbucks.
The real story here is how fools like you rush to through dirt on someone who just exposed the corrupt palace you all reside in.
I'm going to enjoy watching this corrupt palace come down on your heads.
We out number you :)
So, Forbes engages in character assassination rather than talk about the substance of Smith's Op-Ed. How much of Forbes advertising and other finances are wrapped up with Goldman?
Have you forgotten that Abacus was a Goldman Sachs proprietary product? The significance of the NYT editorial has nothing to do with it's author, piling on him with remarkably crude personal sniping does not help your defense of Goldman.
Why would a man of that pedigree would throw his life away with out a back up plan? Also, Goldman's stock price isn't looking too good and I personally know it is not under valued.

Nebraska farmers are starting their spring fieldwork thanks to last week's warm, dry weather across most of the state.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Agricultural Statistics Service said Monday that many farmers have begun applying fertilizer, disking and preparing machinery for planting.
Winter wheat is also starting to grow, and rangeland is starting to green up.
About 60 percent of the wheat crop rated in good or excellent condition. That's less than last year's 64 percent good or excellent rating.
About 15 percent of the oats crop has been planted, which is behind the average of 25 percent planted by this time of year.
The USDA says spring calving is about 75 percent done.

Gaithersburg-area high school football teams wrapped up a successful week on the gridiron, winning two of three Friday night match ups. Unfortunately the lone loss came with some drama and heartbreak.
Trailing 13-6 in the fourth quarter, Gaithersburg High School running back Solomon Vault took off for a 52-yard touchdown run to cut the Trojan deficit to 1 point against Clarksburg.
Trojan head coach Kreg Kephart elected to go for the two point conversion and a one point lead rather than attempt a game-tying extra point. Gaithersburg's pass attempt failed and the Coyotes held on for the win, Clarksburg's first since Oct. 14, 2011.
Quince Orchard got off to a fast start, paced by two first half touchdowns apiece by running back Tyrell Williams and wide receiver D'Andre Johnson and the Cougars rolled over Bethesda's Whitman High School.
After taking a 33-3 lead into the half, the Cougars used two defensive touchdowns to cripple the Vikings chances for a comeback. Quince Orchard improved to 5-1 and avoided a two-game losing streak following its Week 5 loss to Seneca Valley.
Watkins Mill improved to 4-2 with a dominating performance Friday at Einstein High School.
The Wolverines jumped out to a 21-7 first quarter lead on two touchdowns (1 rush, 1 pass) by quarterback Patrick Schlosser and a 27-yard run by running back Quinton Schaired.
Einstein would cut the lead to 7 points in the second quarter before surrendering 27 consecutive points to Watkins Mill.
Schlosser finished the game with 5 touchdowns (2 rush, 3 pass) and made 6 of 7 extra point attempts.
Editor's note: Box scores for all Montgomery County high school football games can be found on The Washington Post.

CO2 emissions reach historic levels as temperatures and sea levels continue to climb
Why would these people lie? they are scientists themselves so they are not "anti science" Why would the co founder of greenpeace come out and say that there is NO SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE to support man made climate change? Surely if this were untrue then the people NOAA would come forward with their evidence? But nobody has.

There was an interesting global warming conference held at heartlands institute in las Vegas recently. Here 64 speakers from 12 different countries spoke about "climate alarmism" and the real facts about so called man made climate change. They said that out of the 11,944 scientific papers that have been written on climate and related topics over the past 21 years only 0.5 % of authors agree that most of the warming since 1950 was manmade. (referring to the myth that 97% of scientists agree with ANW,) They also said that data from the Remote Sensing Systems satellite, shows there now has been no global warming for 17 years and 10 months. O'h and Patrick moore, co founder of grrenpeace, said that there is "no evidence as it is understood by science" to prove ANW and "very little connection between CO2 and the minor warming of the earth over the past 100 years" he also says he's concerned about global cooling.

^ It's like video game mentality and fanboyism, isn't it?
^ It's like video game mentality and fanboyism, isn't it?
"Corporation, n. An ingenious device for obtaining individual profit without individual responsibility." - Ambrose Bierce
Here's a fun article about what some of the past Nobel winners have done with the cash part of the prize: http://news.yahoo.com/nobel-prize-wi...141217506.html
Use Yah Blinkah!
W/the majority of my FSU time the last week being in the Baseball thread, and knowing the announcements were being made, I figured the best place to catch up would be in here.
Yup, that Teacher sure was right...As an amusing aside, in an interview, Gurdon mentioned that he still keeps a report from his school on his wall. It says, of his younger self, "I believe he has ideas about becoming a scientist... This is quite ridiculous. It would be a sheer waste of time, both on his part and of those who have to teach him. He will not listen, but will insist on doing his work in his own way."
Yeah, I guess that worked out for him.
Yamanaka's research wasn't published that long ago - 2006. As I recall, it's not overly common for research that recent to win the Nobel, but his has been big-time influential. Basically, he re-wrote the book.
Really surprised not to see the Higgs Bosom team get the Nobel.
I don't know what to think of the European Union getting the Peace prize. It has definitely enabled the kind of stability and cooperation that would otherwise be unthinkable but meh...
I don't know what to say about European union wining the peace prize, it is the biggest self congratulation ever.
Say what you want about the EU, but it's no coincidence that Europe has had the most peaceful period in its entire history since its inception.
Plus, we can do with the prize money. Every little bit helps.
To think that fun is simple fun, while earnest things are earnest, proves all too plain that neither one thou truthfully discernest.
Interestingly, Thorbjørn Jagland, head of the Nobel Peace Prize committee, is also Secretary General of the Council of Europe, an organisation promoting European co-operation. Stated aims? "To achieve greater unity between its members for the purpose of safeguarding and realising the ideals and principles which are their common heritage and facilitating their economic and social progress."
Full text of the Nobel Peace Prize Committee's statement
"The Norwegian Nobel Committee has decided that the Nobel Peace Prize for 2012 is to be awarded to the European Union (EU). The union and its forerunners have for over six decades contributed to the advancement of peace and reconciliation, democracy and human rights in Europe."
To think that fun is simple fun, while earnest things are earnest, proves all too plain that neither one thou truthfully discernest.

crossSelect jQuery plugin
I thought I should write a short post to say I have written another jQuery plugin, for making multiple select form elements more intuitive to use. It's called crossSelect, and here is a demo.
One of these days I will make a proper portfolio site/subsite which collects all the stuff I make together.
I will, I will, I will!

WILMINGTON, North Carolina - The No. 35 ranked UNCW men's tennis team opened the month of April with its 13th victory of the season after taking down Old Dominion, 6-1, in a Colonial Athletic Association match Sunday at the UNCW Tennis Complex.
The Seahawks extended their winning streak to four matches and improved to 13-4 overall and 1-0 in the CAA. The Monarchs are 10-9 and 2-3 this spring.
UNCW won the first two matches off the court to capture the doubles point and take control early against the Monarchs. The No. 1 team of Chris Cooprider and Kosta Blank controlled Fahoum Fahoum and Can Cetinel, 8-3, for their seventh straight doubles triumph and the No. 3 unit of Pedro Mol and Rafael Aita then clinched the point by trimming Krzysztof Muzalewski and Alfredo Rodriguez, 8-5.
"ODU came out very strong in doubles and was extremely fired up," said UNCW Head Coach Mait DuBois. "I was pleased how we responded and stayed even through the doubles point, taking two of the three matches."
The Seahawks then won five of the six singles duels for the easy win. Aita, ranked 88th nationally by the ITA, increased the score to 2-0 by thumping Muzalewski, 6-2, 6-2, at No. 1 singles. Freshman Kaue Pereira then beat Centinel, 6-3, 7-5, at No. 5 singles for a 3-0 advantage and Blank clinched the match with a 7-5, 6-1, decision over ODU's Wesley Barrett.
In other singles matches, Cooprider beat Carlos Lopez Villa in straight sets, 6-4, 6-4, at the No. 2 position and Mol held on for a 6-2, 0-6, 6-3 triumph over Albert Ochagavia.
ODU registered its lone win when Rodriguez defeated Sam Williams, 7-6 (1), 5-7, 1-0 (10-7) in a marathon match at No. 6 singles.
DuBois said, "Kaue really had a good match for us today. His opponent forced him to show another side of his game that he has been developing. I know he will take a lot of confidence from today's win. The quality of tennis at No. 2 singles was also extremely high. Chris really had to show the true variety of his game to get by Lopez Villa."
The Seahawks have just three matches remaining in the regular season, beginning with a 1 p.m. next Saturday against Troy in Atlanta.

Ferranti F100-L
<processor> A processor, with 16-bit addressing, registers and data paths and a 1-bit serial ALU. The F100-L could only access 32K of memory (one address bit was used for indirection). It was designed by a British company for the British Military.
The unique feature of the F100-L was that it had a complete control bus available for a coprocessor. Any instruction the F100-L couldn't decode was sent directly to the coprocessor for processing. Applications for coprocessors at the time were limited, but the design is still used in modern processors, such as the National Semiconductor 32000 series.
The disk operating system was written by Alec Cawley.

Home > Child Advocacy Center
Child Advocacy Center of Niagara
The Child Advocacy Center of Niagara was founded in 1995 as a partnership between local law enforcement agencies, the Niagara County District Attorney's office and the Niagara County Department of Social Services. It was the third child advocacy center to be established in New York and one of the first nationally approved, hospital-affiliated centers in the Empire State.
Children's advocacy centers use multidisciplinary teams of professionals and agencies to create a child-focused approach to child abuse cases. The goal is to coordinate investigative and interventional services, in a child-friendly setting, to ensure children are not re-victimized by the very system designed to protect them.
All child abuse interviews and evaluations conducted at the Child Advocacy Center are referred by the Niagara County Department of Social Services, law enforcement agencies or the Niagara County district attorney.
Located in Memorial's Hamilton B. Mizer Primary Care Center at 501 10th St., the Child Advocacy Center of Niagara is a fully accredited member of the National Children's Alliance and has been a full member of the Alliance since 1997.
Dr. Jack Coyne, a nationally recognized medical expert in the field of child abuse, serves as the center's medical director. In addition, he trains law enforcement personnel and physicians on the medical evaluation of child abuse and is often called upon to testify as an expert witness.
"By providing a comprehensive, coordinated team response we promote professional, objective investigation of abuse allegations," said Memorial Vice President Ann Marie Tucker, the Child Advocacy Center's former executive director.
"Imagine, for a moment, what it would be like for a 7-year-old child – who is threatened by an abuser that if they tell anybody about the abuse they will get in trouble – to go to a police station to talk about being abused. Then imagine that child having to go to an emergency room to be asked questions again, and then to go to a social worker's office and then to a counselor, and a lawyer … different people, different places, but the same questions over and over," said Memorial President and CEO Joseph A. Ruffolo. "Thanks to the Child Advocacy Center, it's different in Niagara County."
To learn more about the Child Advocacy Center of Niagara, its referral policies or services, call (716) 285-0045.

Just like auto mechanics, dentists, plumbers, financial planners, electricians, attorneys, hair dressers, tailors, Realtors ... you name it: home inspectors are human just like any other service provider.
Some are really good, some are not so good, and some are bad. Luckily word of mouth typically drives the bad service providers out of the marketplace … but not always.
There are a few universal truths about homes and home inspections:
- There is no perfect house.
- There is nothing that can't be fixed for a cost.
- It is the parts of the house that you can't see that you need to worry about the most.
- Once you purchase a home, any problems associated with it become yours.
A good home inspector is looking for "material defects." A material defect is defined as any condition that would have a significant adverse impact on the value of real property. It is important to understand, home inspectors are not looking for cosmetic issues; these are evident at the time of showing and are very much "in the eye of the beholder."
Material defects can be classified into two categories:
1) Health and safety issues
2) A problem that would be expensive to fix
A missing switch plate cover is considered a material defect because someone can potentially get shocked when switch plate covers are missing. Even though a cover may cost only 79 cents to purchase and it is easy enough for almost anyone to install, it is a material defect.
While the list of potential health and safety issues is extensive, it can include:
High radon levels, mold, faulty smoke detectors, faulty wiring, gas leaks, cracks in the chimney liner, trip hazards, chipping lead based paint, and well water quality.
Although "expensive" to fix is a very subjective term, most home inspectors use a gauge of about $500 or more to fix (some consider anything over $100 or $200 is a material defect). The need for a new roof, HVAC, or hot water heater are all clearly material defects, but these issues while costly are usually straightforward and manageable. In our opinion, the most serious of material defects (these problems can cost thousands of dollars and also be difficult to identify and correct) include:
- Structural/foundation issues
- Failing septic systems
- Active infestations
- Persistent water intrusion
- Faulty wiring
Over the years, we have sold hundreds of homes and we have seen the good, the bad and the ugly when it comes to home inspections. We have seen buyers get "spooked" and bail out of contracts on truly solid well-kept homes over something trivial where the inspector made erroneous recommendations. On the flip-side, we have seen buyers work with sellers through stucco repairs and septic issues that have cost tens of thousands of dollars.
There are certainly times a buyer should cancel a contract due to the home inspection issues. But there are other times, especially when the seller is cooperative about paying for repairs and you get the right people in to evaluate and do the work, a buyer would do well to stick it out.
The key is having a really good home inspector to find and sort through the material defects of the property so you know exactly what you are getting.

|lightning conductor or lightning rod
|a metal strip terminating in a series of sharp points, attached to the highest part of a building, etc, to discharge the electric field before it can reach a dangerous level and cause a lightning strike
|lightning rod or lightning rod
|lightning rod
A grounded metal rod placed high on a structure to conduct electrical current from a lightning strike directly to the ground, preventing the currents from injuring people or animals or from damaging objects. Lightning rods usually have a sharp, pointed tip, since electric lines of force are more highly concentrated around pointed objects, in this case increasing the attractiveness of the rod compared with other nearby objects. See also Saint Elmo's fire.
lightning rod
metallic rod (usually copper) that protects a structure from lightning damage by intercepting flashes and guiding their currents into the ground. Because lightning tends to strike the highest object in the vicinity, rods are typically placed at the apex of a structure and along its ridges; they are connected to the ground by low-impedance cables. In the case of a building, the soil is used as the ground; on a ship, the water is used.

Biomedical Sciences Degree-Granting Programs
Click on a question to see the answer.
Academic Program
What courses are first year students required to take?
All first year PhD students take the following courses:
- Foundations of Molecular and Cell Biology, which covers fundamental and advanced topics in biochemistry, molecular biology and cell biology.
- Introduction to Applied Biostatistics and Research Design, which introduces the basic principles of biostatistics and experimental design for research in the biomedical sciences.
- Responsible Conduct of Scientific Research (Research Ethics) I, which covers core information in the responsible conduct of scientific research for early-stage graduate students.
- Graduate Student Research Opportunities in which representatives from each of the 6 Biomedical Sciences Programs describe the research interests of their faculty.
- Journal Club, which provides practice in analyzing published research papers and giving oral presentations.
- Three Research Rotations, which provide students with diverse research experiences to help them select a lab in which to carry out their thesis research.
What courses are required beyond the first year?
During the second year, students take the second part of the Responsible Conduct of Scientific Research course, which examines the moral and philosophical issues confronting scientists. Students continue to take electives based on their research interests as well as courses required by their program.
By the end of the 2nd year, students pass a qualifying exam to go on as candidates for the doctoral degree. By this time, most students have completed all of their coursework and are devoting full time to their dissertation research.
What is a qualifying exam?
The qualifying exam is a written/oral exam, covering areas appropriate to the student's training and research interests, given by a committee of 6 faculty members representing at least 3 different departments. The specific exam format is set by the student's degree-granting program, but typically, the exam involves writing a thesis research proposal and doing a literature search to answer a question outside the student's main area of interest. The written exam is then defended in an oral exam before the examining committee. All PhD students must pass this exam by the end of their 2nd year in order to go on as candidates for the doctoral degree.
How much time do first year students have for research?
Most first year courses are scheduled for mornings so that afternoons and evenings are available for research rotations.
How many years does it take to earn the PhD degree?
The average time to degree for PhD students at Upstate is 5.5 years.
Can I pursue a PhD degree as a part-time student?
This is discouraged because completing an independent research project requires full-time effort.
Will I have my summers off during graduate school? Will I get vacation time?
The academic and stipend calendars run for a full year, which includes the summer. There are scheduled breaks noted on the academic calendar that first year students typically take. Additional time off can be taken with the approval of the Advisory Committee. Once students have entered their dissertation labs, time off is determined in consultation with the dissertation advisor.
Are students required to do any teaching? Are teaching opportunities available to students who want some teaching experience?
Most of our PhD students are NOT required to teach. However, there are numerous opportunities to gain teaching experience; for example, graduate students may assist in medical school laboratory courses such as Gross Anatomy, Histology, Neuroanatomy, and Microbiology.
Can I take courses at Syracuse University and SUNY ESF?
At the request of the faculty advisor, students may take courses at Syracuse University and SUNY ESF. Students must meet the prerequisites set by S.U. and SUNY ESF for taking courses.

College of Graduate Studies,
SUNY Upstate Medical University has a strong base of scientific researchers and a relevant clinical setting which provides students with an excellent environment to learn and grow. More>

"Blown to Smithereens" The Bill Smith Story
by, 05-02-2012 at 10:40 PM (998 Views)
I hope no one can actually feel righteous in blaming Bill Smith for all of the Twin's current woes. Although Bill Smith held the title of General Manager from 2007-2011, my feeling is he was more of a figure head than a voice.
Being that Smith was more of a financial administrator than a field administrator, I believe that Terry Ryan had his hand in the drafting and trades post 2007.
Free agency and contracts: This one is a bit confusing, but after TR resigned, Smith signed Morneau and Cuddyer to contracts that were of fare value or a little above... not much stink there, The Mauer contract is a bit more complicated, but he is coming off of an MVP season and he is a hometown hero (Looking from a PR stance, this needs to get done, especially in the Twin Cities).
Bill Smith relies on his scouts, the same scouts that served under Terry Ryan to make trades or draft certain players. Under Smith's tenure I have no doubts that Ryan was head of scouting, whether that was his title or not and I believe the drafts were his dominion and his ultimate decision from 2008-2011 (under Smith's Tenure).
The trades can be a little more confusing. I cannot see Ryan trading Garza for Delmon Young. I cannot see Ryan Trading Wilson Ramos for Matt Capps. I loved the Gomez for Hardy trade.
Maybe Terry Ryan felt free of the pressure, and in turn pressured his puppet GM Bill Smith to make the trades he did. Ryan did not have to deal with the simpleton MN media anymore and felt he was clear of their scrutiny. He could act like an over sugared child in a toy shop.
Reality: Terry Ryan's good friend, Bill Smith, payed the price for Ryan's futility and was fired. No one that is fired like Bill Smith comes back to an organization so quickly, taking a smaller role in administration, unless it was a smoke screen to protect Terry Ryan. Now Ryan is the White Knight working so fervently to correct all of the mistakes that Billy Smith made... how convenient.
