Fields of Study
African Studies considers the arts, history, cultures, languages, literatures, politics, religions, and societies of Africa as well as issues concerning development, health, and the environment. Considerable flexibility and choice of areas of concentration are offered because students entering the program may have differing academic backgrounds and career plans. Enrollment in the M.A. program in African Studies provides students with the opportunity to register for the many African studies courses offered in the various departments of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences and the professional schools.
The Program in African Studies also offers two interdisciplinary seminars to create dialogue and to integrate approaches across disciplines. In addition to the M.A. degree program, the Council on African Studies offers students in the University's doctoral and other professional degree programs the chance to obtain a Graduate Certificate of Concentration in African Studies by fulfilling a supplementary curriculum (see the section on the African Studies Council, under Non-Degree Granting Programs, Councils, and Research Institutes). Joint degrees are possible with the approval of the director of graduate studies (DGS) and the relevant officials in the schools of Forestry & Environmental Studies, Law, Management, and Public Health.
The African collections of the Yale libraries together represent one of the largest holdings on Africa found in North America. The University now possesses more than 220,000 volumes including, but not limited to, government documents, art catalogues, photographs, manuscripts, correspondence, and theses, many published in Africa.
Special Admissions Requirement
The GRE General Test is required.
Special Requirements for the M.A. Degree
The Yale University Master of Arts degree program in African Studies was instituted in 1986. The two-year interdisciplinary, graduate-level curriculum is intended for students who will later continue in a Ph.D. program or a professional school, or for those who will enter business, government service, or another career in which a sound knowledge of Africa is essential or valuable. A student may choose one of the following areas of concentration: history; anthropology; political science; sociology; arts and literatures; languages and linguistics; religion; environmental and development studies.
The program requires sixteen courses: two compulsory introductory interdisciplinary seminars, Research Methods in African Studies (AFST 501a) and Topics in African Studies (AFST 764b) or an alternate course, as specifically designated by the DGS; four courses of instruction in an African language; four courses in one of the foregoing areas of concentration; four other approved courses offered in the Graduate School or professional schools; and two terms of directed reading and research (AFST 590a and 900b) during which students will complete the required thesis. A student who is able to demonstrate advanced proficiency in an African language may have the language requirement waived and substitute four other approved courses. The choice of courses must be approved by the DGS, with whom students should consult as soon as possible in the first term.
The Master's Thesis
The master's thesis is based on research on a topic approved by the DGS and advised by a faculty member with expertise or specialized competence in the chosen topic. Students must submit their thesis for joint evaluation by the adviser and a second reader, who is chosen by the student in consultation with the DGS.
Program in African Languages
The language program offers instruction in four major languages from sub-Saharan Africa: Kiswahili (eastern and central Africa), Wolof (west Africa), Yorùbá (west Africa), and isiZulu (southern Africa). Language-related courses and language courses for professionals are also offered. African language courses emphasize communicative competence, and instructors use multimedia materials that focus on the contemporary African context. Course sequences are designed to enable students to achieve advanced competence in all skill areas by the end of the third year, and the African Languages program encourages students to spend one summer or term in Africa during their language study.
Noncredited instruction in other African languages is available by application through the Directed Independent Language Study program at the Center for Language Study. Contact the director of the Program in African Languages.

Fields of Study
The Master of Arts (M.A.) program in East Asian Studies is a multidisciplinary program offering a concentrated course of study designed to provide a broad understanding of the people, history, culture, contemporary society, politics, and economy of China, Japan, or a transnational region within East Asia. This program is designed for students preparing to go on to the doctorate in one of the disciplines of East Asian Studies (e.g., anthropology; economics; history; history of art; language and literature, including comparative literature, film studies, and theater studies; political science; sociology; etc.), as well as for those students seeking a terminal M.A. degree before entering the business world, the media, government service, or a professional school.
Course of Study for the M.A. Degree
The East Asian Studies graduate program is designed to be completed in either a one-year or a two-year track. The two-year track requires the preparation of a master's thesis and is therefore ideal for students who are keen to pursue focused, independent research under the guidance of a faculty member. It also provides students with an opportunity to pursue additional disciplinary and language training. Students who enter the two-year track with a strong command of one East Asian language will be encouraged to consider beginning a second (or third) language.
In general, students focus their course work on the study of China, Japan, or transnational East Asia. Some students may prefer to focus their course work on one or two disciplines, in addition to language study and courses focused on East Asia. Others may create a highly interdisciplinary program, taking courses in traditional disciplines such as history, literature, political science, art history, or anthropology, as well as in Yale's professional schools.
Applicants to the East Asian Studies graduate program must indicate on their application whether they are applying to the one-year or the two-year track.
Requirements for the M.A. Degree: One-Year Track
The program of study for completion of the degree on the one-year track consists of eight term courses that must include two terms of language study at or above Yale's third-year level (unless the language requirement has already been met through previous study or native fluency), plus six other courses selected from the University's offerings of advanced language study and seminars related to East Asia at the graduate level. For those who meet the language requirement at matriculation, two of the required eight courses may be advanced training in a particular discipline (e.g., economics, history, political theory, statistics, etc.) with no explicit focus on East Asia, but related to the student's professional goals. The course of study must be approved by the director of graduate studies (DGS).
Special Requirements
Students must earn two Honors grades ("H") over the course of their two terms at Yale. Honors grades earned in any language course cannot be counted toward satisfying this requirement, except with the permission of the DGS.
Requirements for the M.A. Degree: Two-Year Track
The program of study for completion of the degree on the two-year track consists of sixteen term courses that must include four terms of language study, two terms of which must be at Yale's fourth-year level (unless the language requirement has already been met through previous study or native fluency), plus twelve other courses selected from the University's offerings of advanced language study and seminars related to East Asia at the graduate level. Students who have achieved advanced proficiency in one East Asian language are strongly encouraged to pursue study of a second East Asian language, but for those who have met the language requirement in one language at matriculation, two of the required sixteen courses may be advanced training in a particular discipline (e.g., economics, history, political theory, statistics, etc.) with no explicit focus on East Asia, but related to the student's professional goals. The course of study must be approved by the director of graduate studies (DGS).
Special Requirements
Students must earn four Honors grades ("H") over the course of their four terms at Yale. Honors grades earned in any language course cannot be counted toward satisfying this requirement, except with the permission of the DGS. A master's thesis is also required.
Master's Thesis
A master's thesis is required of students enrolled in the two-year degree program. The master's thesis is based on research in a topic approved by the DGS and advised by a faculty member with specialized competence in the chosen topic. M.A. students must register for EAST 900, which may count toward the sixteen required courses. EAST 900 may not be taken for audit. Students may register for an additional independent study to prepare topics and begin research. The master's thesis must be prepared according to CEAS guidelines and is due in two copies in the student's second year on an early-April date as specified by CEAS.
Joint-Degree Programs
There are no joint-degree programs available to students enrolled in the East Asian Studies M.A. degree program. Students interested in pursuing additional degrees in the Yale professional schools should consider applying separately to those programs in order to complete such degrees before or after the East Asian Studies M.A. degree.

The European Studies Council promotes research programs about Europe's culture, history, and current affairs. The geographical scope of the council's activities extends from Ireland to Italy, and from Portugal to the lands of the former Soviet Union. The council's definition of Europe transcends conventional divisions between Western, Central, and Eastern Europe, and includes the Balkans and Russia. The U.S. Department of Education has repeatedly designated the council a National Resource Center and a FLAS Center under its HEA Title VI program. Further information on the council and the Graduate Certificate of Concentration in European Studies is provided under Non-Degree-Granting Programs, Councils, and Research Institutes in this bulletin.
The council administers an M.A. program in European and Russian Studies. This M.A. program is unusual in its embrace of the entire spectrum of European nations and cultures. Its requirements allow students to choose a particular national or thematic focus, geared to their individual interests and language skills, but also ensure that students acquaint themselves with the traditions and issues associated with the other parts of Europe. Students specializing in Russia and Eastern Europe, for example, will concentrate their efforts in that area, but will also take courses that address Europe-wide problems or the countries of Central or Western Europe. The program is suited both to students who wish to pursue further academic studies and to students whose interests are policy-oriented.
Fields of Study
European languages and literatures; economics; history; political science; law; music; sociology and other social sciences.
Special Requirements for the M.A. Degree
When applying to the program, students will specify as an area of primary concentration either (1) Russia and Eastern Europe, or (2) Central and Western Europe. All students must complete sixteen term courses (or their equivalent) in the various fields related to European and Russian studies. E&RS 900, Europe: Who, What, When, Where?, is required in addition to the sixteen courses and should be taken in the first year of the program. E&RS 900 is taken as Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory and may not be taken for audit.
Students are required to take at least one course in at least three of the four fields relevant to the program, that is, history (including history of art, history of science, and history of music), literature, social sciences, and law. Students can fulfill this three-field requirement by taking Europe-related courses from across the University. One of the sixteen term courses may be taken for audit. With special approval under certain circumstances, a course graded Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory may count as one of the sixteen required courses. For students focusing on Russia and Eastern Europe, two of the sixteen required courses (excluding language courses) must concern the nations of Central and Western Europe. Conversely, for those focusing on Central and Western Europe, two courses must concern Russia and Eastern Europe.
For the purposes of this program, language courses in European languages count toward the sixteen required courses, even though they have undergraduate course numbers and undergraduate grade modes. If a student takes a language course to fulfill the 16-credit degree requirement, the language course may not be taken for audit. Students with previous language preparation may in certain cases receive documentation of their language proficiency on the basis of this work. By the time the degree is completed, all students must demonstrate at least L4 proficiency in two European languages other than English. Those wishing to focus on Russia and Eastern Europe will need to demonstrate knowledge of Russian or an Eastern European language; those focusing on Central and Western Europe will need to demonstrate knowledge of one of the appropriate languages. In all cases, students are required to demonstrate proficiency in two European languages by the end of the third term at Yale. The only exception to this rule is completion of the appropriate full sequence of Yale language classes, certified by the Yale instructor or the director of graduate studies. Students who wish to take Yale department examinations in French, German, Italian, Spanish, or other West European languages should register for a complete examination (with reading, oral, and grammar portions) with the appropriate Yale department. Students with Russian competence must receive the grade of 1+ or higher on the ACTFL/ETS Rating Scale as administered by the Slavic Languages and Literatures department at Yale, including reading, oral, and grammar portions. Students with competence in an East European language (such as Polish, Czech, Ukrainian, Hungarian, and others by special arrangement) or other European languages must take Yale department-administered examinations.
In all cases, students will comply with the Policies and Regulations of the Yale Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, especially regarding degree requirements and academic standing.
Through agreements negotiated by the MacMillan Center, the European Studies Council offers joint master's degrees with the Law School, the School of Management, the School of Forestry & Environmental Studies, and the School of Public Health. Application for admission must be made to both the Graduate School and the applicable professional school, with notation made on each application that this is to be considered for the joint-degree program. Refer to www.yale.edu/macmillan/joint.htm and contact the European Studies director of graduate studies (DGS) for up-to-date information.
The Master's Thesis
A master's thesis is required. The master's thesis is based on research in a topic approved by the DGS and advised by a faculty member with specialized competence in the chosen topic. M.A. students must register for E&RS 950, which may count toward the sixteen required courses. E&RS 950 may not be taken for audit. Students may register for an additional independent study to prepare topics and begin research. The master's thesis must be prepared according to department guidelines and is due in two copies in the student's second year on an early-April date as specified by the council.
Program materials are available upon request to the European Studies Council, Yale University, PO Box 208206, New Haven CT 06520-8206.

A variety of Latin American Studies options are available for graduate students in history and other humanities disciplines, the social sciences, and the professional schools. Latin American area course offerings are available in twenty-five disciplines with distinct strengths in Anthropology, History, Political Science, and Spanish and Portuguese. Latin Americanist faculty specialize in the Andes (Burger), Brazil (Jackson, Jacobowitz, Schwartz), the Caribbean (Carby, Echeverri, Eller, Thompson), Central America (Chinchilla, Joseph, Miller, Wood), Colombia (Echeverri), Costa Rica (Wherry), Cuba (Allen, Laguna), Mexico (Canales, De La O Torres, Joseph, Miller, Pitti, Schmidt Camacho), and the Southern Cone (Fradinger, Stokes). F&ES faculty (Ashton, Bell, Berlyn, Clark, Dove, Geballe, Gentry, Mendelsohn, Montagnini) have tropical research interests or participate in educational exchanges with Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Costa Rica, Dominica, Ecuador, Haiti, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Peru, and Venezuela. Latin American content courses are also offered in the Schools of Law, Management, and Public Health.
Students may pursue the Graduate Certificate of Concentration in Latin American and Iberian Studies in conjunction with graduate degree programs in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences and the professional schools. To complete the certificate, candidates must demonstrate expertise in the area through their major graduate or professional field, as well as show command of the diverse interdisciplinary, geographic, cultural, and linguistic approaches associated with expertise in Latin America or Iberia.
Admission is contingent on the candidate's acceptance into a Yale graduate degree program, and award of the certificate, beyond fulfilling the relevant requirements, requires the successful completion of the candidate's Yale University degree program. Active participation in the council's extracurricular and research programs and seminars is also strongly encouraged.
Limited financial resources, such as the LAIS Summer Research grants and Tinker Field Research grants, are available to graduate and professional school students for summer research. Information on grants is available at http://studentgrants.yale.edu.
Specific Requirements for the Graduate Certificate of Concentration
Language proficiency The equivalent of two years' study of one language and one year of the other, normally Spanish and Portuguese. Less frequently taught languages, such as Nahuatl, Quechua, or Haitian Creole, may also be considered for meeting this requirement.
Course work Six graduate courses in at least two different disciplines. No more than four courses may count in any one discipline.
Geographical and disciplinary coverage At least two countries and two languages must be included in the course work or thesis.
Research A major graduate course research paper or thesis that demonstrates the ability to use field resources, ideally in one or more languages of the region, normally with a focus on a comparative or regional topic rather than a single country.
The certificate adviser of the Council on Latin American and Iberian Studies will assist graduate students in designing a balanced and coordinated curriculum. The council will provide course lists and other useful materials.
Academic Resources of the Council
The council supplements the graduate curriculum with annual lecture and film series, special seminars, and conferences that bring visiting scholars and experts to campus. The council also serves as a communications and information center for a vast variety of enriching events in Latin American studies sponsored by the other departments, schools, and independent groups at Yale. It is a link between Yale and Latin American centers in other universities, and between Yale and educational programs in Latin America and Iberia.
The Latin American Collection of the University library has approximately 556,000 volumes printed in Latin America, plus newspapers and microfilms, CD-ROMs, films, sound recordings, and maps. The library's Latin American Manuscript Collection is one of the finest in the United States for unpublished documents for the study of Latin American history. Having the oldest among the major Latin American collections in the United States, Yale offers research opportunities unavailable elsewhere.

The Council on Middle East Studies is part of the Whitney and Betty MacMillan Center for International and Area Studies. The council brings together faculty and students sharing an interest in the Middle East by sponsoring conferences, discussions, films, and lecture series by scholars from Yale as well as visiting scholars. It provides information concerning grants, fellowships, research programs, and foreign study opportunities. It also administers research projects in a variety of Middle East-related areas.
In addition to the resources of the individual departments, Yale's library system has much to offer the student interested in Middle East studies. Of particular note are the collections of Arabic and Persian manuscripts, as well as large holdings on the medieval and modern Middle East.
The Council on Middle East Studies administers the Middle East Studies National Resource Center at Yale, which is funded by the U.S. Department of Education under HEA Title VI. As a National Resource Center, the council supports a number of projects and activities, including summer- and academic-year language fellowships and an extensive outreach program.
The council also offers a Graduate Certificate of Concentration in Modern Middle East Studies. Students with an interest in the Middle East should first apply to one of the University's degree-granting departments, such as Anthropology, History, Linguistics, Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations, Political Science, Religious Studies, or Sociology, and then apply for the graduate certificate of concentration no later than the beginning of their penultimate term of study.
Graduate Certificate of Concentration in Modern Middle East Studies
The certificate represents acknowledgment of substantial preparation in Middle East Studies, both in the student's major graduate or professional field and also in terms of the disciplinary and geographical diversity required by the council for recognized competency in the field of Middle East Studies. As language and culture are the core of the area studies concept, students are required to attain or demonstrate language proficiency.
- 1. Language proficiency: the equivalent of two years of study at a passing grade in one of the four languages of the Middle East—Arabic, Hebrew, Persian, and Turkish.
- 2. Course work: six graduate courses in at least two different disciplines. No more than four courses may count in any one discipline. Included in these six courses must be an introductory Middle East history course, such as State and Society and Culture in the Middle East (taken with special supplemental graduate readings and assignments), and a foundations course, such as Culture and Politics in the Contemporary Middle East.
- 3. Interdisciplinary coverage: both courses and any research project undertaken in lieu of a course must reflect experience of at least two disciplines.
- 4. Research: a major graduate course research paper, dissertation prospectus, dissertation, or thesis that demonstrates ability to use field resources, ideally in one or more languages of the region.
For more information on the Graduate Certificate and inquiries about Middle East Studies, contact the Council on Middle East Studies, Yale University, PO Box 208206, New Haven CT 06520-8206, or the council e-mail, email@example.com.

Yale does not offer higher degrees in Southeast Asia Studies. Instead, students apply for admission to one of the regular degree-granting departments and turn to the Council on Southeast Asia Studies for guidance regarding the development of their special area interest, courses outside their department, and instruction in Southeast Asian languages related to their research interest. Faculty members of the SEAS council are available to serve as Ph.D. advisers and committee members. The council aims to bring together faculty and students sharing an interest in Southeast Asia and supplements the graduate curriculum with an annual seminar series, periodic conferences, and special lectures.
Yale offers extensive library and research collections on Southeast Asia in Sterling Memorial Library, the Economic Growth Center, the Peabody Museum of Natural History, and the Human Relations Area Files. Further information on library resources is available from Richard Richie, Curator, Southeast Asia Collection, Sterling Memorial Library (203.432.1858, email@example.com).
Language instruction is offered to graduate and undergraduate students in two Southeast Asian languages, Indonesian and Vietnamese. The council supports language tables and tutoring in other Southeast Asian languages by special arrangement. Students planning to undertake predissertation field research or language study in Southeast Asia may apply to the council for summer fellowship support.

Jet lag is a physiological condition that results from rapid changes in our body's natural sleep-wake cycle. If we follow the needs and desires of our body, we would end up sleeping throughout the day and staying awake during the night. In the short-run, these symptoms can lead to low productivity, headache and loss of appetite, and in the long-run even to memory & learning problems.
Research in the last 20+ years from leading universities, including Harvard and Oxford, has shown that exposing yourself to and avoiding light at the right times of the day is the most effective way to shift your body clock. That change may lead to improved sleep as well as faster adaptation to a new time zone.

An OpenGL-accelerated desktop with Xgl and Compiz
A member of Suse's X11 team delivers an insider's look at Xgl.
Mac fans were ecstatic when Apple introduced the Quartz Extreme [1] graphics interface, which accelerated desktop effects using 3D hardware. Microsoft's Windows Vista with its Aero technology looks to close this gap with the Mac. In the world of Linux, Xgl [2] now provides a comparable and even more advanced technology that supports similar effects. Xgl is an X Server by David Revemann that uses OpenGL to implement graphics output. When a program tells Xgl to draw a line, Xgl passes the vertices to the OpenGL subsystem, which then sends the matching commands to the graphics hardware. Despite this emphasis on OpenGL, Xgl also retains the protocol that existing applications use to talk to the X Server, removing the need to rewrite application programs.

I'm using theme Windows Classic to get rid of the aero effect (for the sake of speed for my developing works) but I enjoy having the background images/photos from the other themes (e.g. Bing Best) but I don't know how to do this after trying a while in the desktop personalizing settings of Windows 7. Please help if you know how to do it!
Though you switched to Window Classic Theme, you still can use Windows Theme's background image.
Personalization > Desktop Background > Choose Windows Desktop Backgrounds from Picture Location drop down. you'll see the background images of the Windows Theme you'd installed .
for your case, the downloaded themes are installed under
and if you choose multiple images, these will change automatically according to the time you've set. like automatic window background changer.

As War Looms
So now America waits and the world waits, as the Bush administration moves perhaps inexorably toward war with Iraq. Yet the executive branch is not solely responsible for American foreign policy. The Constitution confers on Congress the power to declare war, and charges the Senate, by virtue of the advice-and-consent clause of Article II, Section 2, with special responsibilities on matters of foreign policy. Members of Congress have a patriotic duty to give the president their best, candid judgment about matters of war and peace.
As someone who came of age in the 1960s, I hoped the country had learned some painful lessons from the experience of the Vietnam War. It appears I was wrong-at least about the nation's politicians. As the Bush administration prepares to make war on Iraq, some in Congress wring their hands but make no move to reconsider the October 2002 resolution giving the president authority to take military action. The timid compliance of Congress recalls the tilt toward excessive presidential action and congressional inaction on Vietnam thirty-five to forty years ago. I was reminded vividly of these parallels recently by the presence in Oregon of former Senator Eugene McCarthy.
The threat of war against Iraq foremost in his mind, McCarthy alighted in Oregon like the eagle on the Great Seal of the Republic, olive branch in one talon, sheaf of arrows in the other. Now eighty-six, McCarthy is...

ATLANTA -- Slumping Braves second baseman Dan Uggla was given an unexpected day off.
Atlanta manager Fredi Gonzalez made the announcement Tuesday before Atlanta played the San Diego Padres. Uggla and Gonzalez had a conversation before the game.
"Anytime I'm out of the lineup," Uggla said, "it's not my idea."
Uggla, who signed a five-year, $62 million contract after the Braves acquired him in a November trade with Florida, has just four hits in his last 47 at-bats -- dropping his season batting average to .178.
He was 0 for 3 with a walk and two strikeouts Monday, stranding three baserunners in Atlanta's 3-2 loss to San Diego.
"You're not going to walk your way out of a slump like this, so I'm trying to be aggressive," Uggla said. "It's all timing. I've just got to get my foot down. If I get my foot down, be on time, everything will fall into place. It almost seems like it's that easy."
Gonzalez replaced Uggla with Brooks Conrad, who will play second base and hit eighth. The manager has no specific plan regarding Uggla's return to the lineup.
"We're just going day to day," Gonzalez said. "Just give him a breather, and that's it. I know he doesn't like coming out of ballgames and he doesn't want to come out of ballgames. He wants to be in there and be part of the whole thing, no matter what he's hitting. That's just the competitor in him."
Uggla is coming off a career season with the Marlins, batting .287 with 33 homers and 105 RBIs.
For Atlanta, he has seven homers, 16 RBIs, a .322 slugging percentage and a .246 on-base percentage.

Friday Spotlight: How to find your Cloud-in-a-box in San Francisco?
By Haiduong Vo-Oracle on Oct 09, 2015
Attending Oracle OpenWorld in San Francisco is like walking through the famed FAO Schwarz toy store or the LEGO store. There are so many cool and fantastic products that wow you. If you are on a mission to find your cloud-in-a-box at this conference, let the Hero 6 team help you navigate through the sea of 60,000 people and thousands of sessions.
Meet Hero #1: ICA AB Group,
one of the largest retail companies in the Nordics region, covering Norway,
Sweden, Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia.
On Monday October 26th morning, you attend the Private Cloud Appliance Roadmap and Insights from Engineering [CON8762] at the Intercontinental Hotel. Hero #1 explains how Oracle Private Cloud Appliance was used to set the new benchmark within ICA and how this Engineered System became the "standard platform" for all database and application deployments.
You run into Hero #2: Atos Nederland B.V., an international leader in digital services and Worldwide IT Partner for the Olympic Games.
Always a fan of the Olympic games, you attend the Atos Virtual Oracle Computing Hotel: Private Cloud Appliance in a Flexible Service Wrapper [CON7886] to hear Hero #2 talk about how he created the "Virtual Oracle Computing (VOC) Hotel" with Oracle Private Cloud Appliance. The VOC hotel offers guests 4 different room sizes and aligns Oracle license cost with the CPU cores you actually use.
On Tuesday October 27th, you want to hear about Oracle's Virtualization vision and attend the General Session: How Oracle Linux and Virtualization Power the Cloud [GEN9486] with Senior VP Wim Coekaerts. This General Session takes place at the Park Central hotel.
You then hurry over to the Intercontinental Hotel to meet Hero #3: Secure-24, a leading Service Provider in North America.
During the session Transforming Application Delivery with Private Cloud Appliance [CON2528], Hero #3 will discuss how Oracle Private Cloud Appliance combined with Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance helped this hero achieve performance improvements while reducing delivery costs by 90 percent for Oracle workloads running on both Linux and Windows.
Still in pursuit of your cloud-in-a-box, you go back to the Intercontinental hotel on Wednedsday October 28th to meet Hero #4: Xait, a leader in Oil and Gas Collaborative Authoring Solutions with headquarter in Norway.
And Hero #5: Tier1, a North American consulting and support organization
In the Real-World Insight: Private Cloud Appliance in Action [CON8765], you hear about best practices and learnings from these vastly different heroes when they deployed Oracle Private Cloud Appliance for a range of traditional and cloud workloads.
Happy with what you have heard from 5 different customers, you head off to the Oracle Customer Appreciation Event to hear the music of Elton John and Beck while enjoying the 360-degree views of the San Francisco and Oakland skylines.
Ah, on the last day of the conference Thursday October 29th, you go to Moscone South to meet the last Hero: Accenture Enkitec Group
Hero #6 provides the last use-case in the session on Private Cloud Appliance and Oracle Exadata for High-Volume Financial Services Systems [CON5175].
Wait, one more session to attend All-Flash Cloud—Simplify Deployment Using Private Cloud Appliance with Oracle All Flash FS [CON8066] to complete your search for a cloud-in-a-box.
It's been a whole week of fun. You've found what you were looking for through all the sessions with the Hero 6 team. Good bye San Francisco.

I wanted to clean up one of my projects and extracted parts of my source that I often reuse, in a single class. This class handles some requests to a web service, everything is fine so far ;). Until I extracted the code to its own class, I handled those requests with threads and callbacks in the calling class.
Now I have a "best practice" question:
In my code I do something like(simplified):
Helper *h =[[Helper alloc]init];
[h doRequest];
doRequest performs a network action(in its own class)and I have to wait until this is request is finished. So I need a callback or something like this.
Should I simply thread doRequest incl. waituntildone=YES?
Do I have to thread the networking in the Helper class too? Or is it enough to call the method threaded something like this:
[NSThread detachNewThreadSelector:@selector(h doRequest) toTarget:self withObject:nil];
What is the best practice to get a callback from doRequest to the caller class after it has completed it's tasks so that I can handle the returned values from the web service?
Thanks in advance.

Waterfront Pattaya Construction Begins
Waterfront Suites & Residences at Bali Hai South Pattaya commences construction, and is set to be the most iconic Condominium ever to be built in Pattaya
This is nothing to do with the current developers, but more so from the fact that it never actually got off the ground when it was launched around 5 years ago by the previous owners.
In July last year, Tulip Group and Park Plaza Hotels Europe purchased the site from the previous owners and decided to breathe brand new life in to this potentially iconic project, this firstly involved them deciding to refund all previous purchasers and "wipe the slate clean"
There simply isn't another site available in Pattaya that can compare to this projects location, it is simply stunning, direct ocean front living, just minutes from walking street and will overlook the brand new marina and recreational area which is currently under construction by City Hall. Not to forget that it sits directly next to the famous neon "Pattaya" sign which will mean that when the project is complete it will be probably the most photographed building in Pattaya.
This iconic structure will rise to 50 stories and will offer 300 world class condominium units and a 100 Key Hotel and the entire project on completion will be managed by Park Plaza Hotels Europe on Completion.
Park Plaza Hotels
Park Plaza Hotels Limited owns, leases, develops, manages and franchises primarily full service four-star, four-star deluxe and contemporary lifestyle hotels in major gateway cities and regional centres primarily in Europe. The majority of the Group's hotels operate under the Park Plaza Hotels & Resorts brand (part of Carlson), over which the Group has exclusive rights in 56 countries in Europe, the Middle East and Africa, or art'otel, a brand which Park Plaza fully owns.
The Group currently has 25 Park Plaza hotels and art'otels, with 5,508 rooms in operation. Park Plaza also part owns Arenaturist, one of Croatia's leading hospitality companies, and operates 8 hotels and 5 apartment complexes with a total of 2,868 rooms.
The jewel in the crown is Park Plaza Westminster Bridge in London which has recently opened and is London's largest hotel.
So from this one can easily see that this is a powerhouse partner for Tulip Group and should give huge confidence to potential buyers as to the security of this project (and sales figures show that it has)
Despite some early negativity probably born from a little bit of jealously in some quarters the project is moving along extremely well as far as sales figures with over 200 rooms sold in just over 4 months, and with no actual official launch party and very little marketing material.
Construction is now officially underway and completion is slated for 2015.

Do you mean Roger De Haan? (#11165)
Poor Jimmy GoddenApr920084/09I do feel sorry for Jimmy Godden as it appears that anything he owns seems to catch fire.
I mean it's wasn't so long ago that some b****** set fire to another property that he owned (Mr B's Arcade on Margate seafront), burning it to the ground. Then there was the fire at Rotunda amusement park in Folkestone which was another one of his places. Oh and before then another seafront arcade that he kindly bought to renovate in Ramsgate was burnt to the ground by some evil scumbag... now how's that for luck?
I just hope our wonderful ladies and gentlemen up at Margate Police Station will soon catch the brainless moron who seems to have something against Mr Jimmy Godden.

DAMOKENTBOY 30 May 2010 Comment / reply
RE: Poor Jimmy GoddenI am so pleased that someone is concerned about Mr Godden's spate of bad luck, I am sure that Jimmy will appreciate this community spirit - after all Mr Godden has always had the towns' best interests at heart. It is good to know that there is one developer who does not behave in a shabhy, corrupting, self-interested manner. There has been so much of that in the past, especially in Folkestone, where corrupt local politicians and greedy developers have scarred our landscape with money-making monstosities ie., Queens house replaced the Beautiful Queen's Hotel, The lovely Royal Pavillion Hotel, knocked down to erect The ugly Burstin. These beautiful Victorian buildings were a heritage of the town - our heritage! - now they have been wiped off the landscape forever.
Our latest 'White elephant' - The Bouverie Road Shopping centre, will, in time, become another eyesore, as it fails, to make the profit envisaged by its schemers.
Two things we must concern ourselves with in the future - stop all demolition of lovely buildings in the town - and make sure that Richard de Haan comliments the town with his seafront scheme - what is built now, will be the attractions of the future, or, another nail in the coffin of the prosperity of Folkestone.

RE: Poor Jimmy GoddenWith his (alleged) ill gotten gains gained through �fiery speculation� on the Kent coast he bought a celebrated Robert Adam mansion near Ashford after its owner Baron, Lord Brabourne chucked an incumbent leasing children�s home out of it. The illustrious lord refused a further lease to the children�s home when it came up for renewal. The noble lord, presumably, wanted to make extra dosh pronto with its fabulous sale. Jimmy Godden snapped the aristocratic pile up for a cool �3million+. The children�s home was forced to up-sticks c.2002. They trundled into a woebegone annex nearby where they thrive, unfortunately, without the grand inspiring surroundings of a Capability Brown that they used to enjoy. Nevertheless, one understands they are reasonably enthused with a more modern, ethical disparate housing structure designed, not unlike an old people�s home for the young.

I'm actually quite keen on the Burstin.

It can be no easy task for a writer to have to âendâ a long-running series, especially when a new issue #1 relaunch is already scheduled. Even by Marvelâs standards, this âendingâ is hard to swallow, presenting something of a challenge. How do you wrap something up when everyone reading knows itâs continuing as normal in all but number?
Wisely, Gillen uses the opportunity to reflect on the past while setting up the future, rather than pretending that this is the absolute end. Although the themes of the story are backwards-looking, starting (rather ingeniously) with a remix of âUncanny X-Menââs first ever page and charting the course of the surviving class-members, the narrative frame is quite openly a lead-in to the relaunchâs first storyline, which features the return of a classic X-villain. Indeed, it rather skims over the events of âSchismâ by comparison.
As noted, the book spends much of its time with the three remaining members of the X-Men (we can assume Angel is taken off the board at the end of the current âUncanny X-Forceâ storyline, thenâ¦) and itâs here that Gillenâs material works best. Itâs difficult to write a comic where characters say one thing but clearly mean another, and here we see Cyclops and Iceman repeatedly speaking and acting at odds with their feelings. One of Gillenâs strongest skills as a writer is his careful attention to subtext, and that seems at its best in an issue as reflective as this.
Despite that, a question mark hangs over the matter of what the returning X-villain (who shall remain nameless for fear of spoilers) is doing in this issue, and why theyâve been picked to frame the story given that they had nothing to do with the teamâs creation or its dissolution. The scenes they feature in are all appropriately creepy, not least due to Landâs visuals, but their actions are perhaps a little too metatextual (even if they do often raise a smile). The body-switch which takes place halfway through, however, is just confusing, not least because there appears to be no perceivable difference between the new and old incarnations. Perhaps weâll learn more specifics in the next arc -- but thatâs not the way a âfinalâ issue should behave, is it?
Regarding Land, it seems pointless to repeat the same criticisms of his artwork (and in any case, his collaborations with Gillen have been significantly better than the majority of the artistâs output) but there is one moment where his presence has a clear negative impact: A double-page splash of X-memories, old and new, should have been a tribute to the complexity and intricacies of the past. Instead, itâs reduced to showcasing the worst of Landâs cut & paste excesses.
The scene appears to be there in order to evoke reader nostalgia as Cyclops and Iceman (and by extension the X-Men philosophy) parts ways, but itâs incredibly hard to look at the image without seeing a compositional nightmare first and a set of remembrances second. Thereâs no flow, no center, no clear structure to it. Perhaps the plan was always for a chaotic feel to the page, but even then, the results are far too distracting to call it a success.
Regardless of whether you accept the premise of this being Uncanny X-Menâs âfinalâ issue, there is, at least, the sense of an era ending here. The characters are grave and pensive, even if the story theyâre wrapped in is a little more knowing about their situation. Itâs not so much a victory lap as it is a limp back home with aching thighs and the knowledge that youâve got to go out for another run tomorrow. But thatâs all right. âSchismâ has left the X-Men in uncertain straits, and while this doesnât clear the board, it does, at least, convincingly reset the pieces.

A light and sexy treat for those seeking plenty of good sex and a bit of style without a heavy plot.
Is it Rebecca Luv or Rebecca Love? The box cover and the credits can't agree. Fortunately, other than this minor conflict, there's very little disagreeable about this slightly silly tale about Nicole Sheridan and her new job as production coordinator for a new men's magazine. Apparently a large private office comes with the job, which is handy since it gives her a place to both interview and – err – audition VooDoo. Naturally the female models are fucking the male photographers when they're not sticking toys inside of one another or needing to be coaxed out of their starlet shyness.

Pasadena, CA – Astronomers have discovered the first Earth-size planet outside the solar system that has a rocky composition like that of Earth. Kepler-78b whizzes around its host star every 8.5 hours, making it a blazing inferno and not suitable for life as we know it. The results are published in two papers in the journal Nature.
"The news arrived in grand style with the message: 'Kepler-10b has a baby brother,'" said Natalie Batalha, Kepler mission scientist at NASA's Ames Research Center in Moffett Field, CA. Batalha led the team that discovered Kepler-10b, a larger but also rocky planet identified by NASA's Kepler spacecraft.

Montgomery County, TN – To say Marc DiBernardo runs for a reason is an understatement. On Saturday, October 15th, this Fort Campbell Soldier will run in the Go Commando Half Marathon presented by CDE Lightband in hopes of breaking his second world record. His mission is to bring awareness to Team Red, White & Blue, a non-profit organization committed to wounded veterans and their families.
DiBernardo began running when he joined the military in 2002. However, he soon took running to a new level. Each time he enters an event, DiBernardo wears a unique piece of racing equipment, a gas mask. What started as a lighthearted approach to fitness turned into a passion. DiBernardo has participated in several military challenge competitions, including Fort Campbell's 'Toughest Air Assault Competition' in 2007. Now he has set his sights to Go Commando and he's bringing the mask with him.
Fort Campbell Soldier Marc DiBernardo will attempt a second world record at the Go Commando Half Marathon Saturday, October 15th.

It's serious time in the old corral. Must be to get director Paul Thomas in front of the camera. P.T.'s been up to a lot these days - directing real adult films, and apparently getting a body wave at his stylist's/ I mean, he looks good and all that, and I hope that his movies look just as impressive. Anyway, P.T.'s anecdotally interesting as he gives us all kinds of neat insights into the makeup and love life of Tori Welles, of course, punching it up with some of her best performances on the Vivid label, like Scarlet Bride, Torid Without a Cause and others. He gets a little dramatic, of course, and to hear him talk you'd think Welles was some kind of a cross between Lethal Weapon 3 and the "F.B.I.'s Most Wanted," but this is a tape you'll absolutely have to have in your collection. It's fascinating, loaded with great sex, and is just what a compilation should be.
