The First-Year Program is an innovative educational experience required of all new students and comprised of three curricular elements: (1) Inquiry 111; (2) Writing; and (3) Oral Communication. These courses provide a common educational experience for first-year students and are the centerpiece of liberal learning at Westminster.
Inquiry 111
Inquiry 111 comprises a semester-long course of study designed to confront and engage students. The faculty have identified three outcomes and objectives for this course:
Articulate and practice the values and methods of a liberal arts education. To accomplish outcome #1, the course should provide students with the opportunity to:
- study classical and contemporary liberal arts practices and theories;
- recognize the greater expectations associated with college-level work and develop appropriate critical thinking and information literacy skills;
- evaluate moral and ethical responsibilities they have to various communities as a result of their education.
Engage, experience and explain different ways of knowing. To accomplish outcome #2, the course should provide students with the opportunity to:
- examine and compare each of the Intellectual Perspectives as ways of knowing;
- recognize and respect different world views;
- challenge their own assumptions to promote inquiry and intellectual growth.
Pursue interdisciplinary study and discussion of important issues. To accomplish outcome #3, the course should provide students with the opportunity to:
- investigate and discuss significant or controversial issues from multiple cultural and intellectual perspectives;
- engage diverse views of common readings and issues;
- participate in an active learning community sharing a first-year experience.
In addition to the Inquiry course, first-year students are required to take writing and oral communication courses purposely designed to complement Inquiry 111. Assignments in writing and oral communication correspond with those in Inquiry, thus making skill and content instruction mutually reinforcing. In turn, learning in the Inquiry course is enhanced throughout the year as a result of the synergistic effects of more effective written and oral communication skills being developed by students. In both communication skills courses, the applied use of information technology is employed.
Inquiry 103
Inquiry 103 is designed specifically for Lifelong Learning students to introduce and engage them with questions that have traditionally been at the center of a liberal arts education.
Writing is a valuable and necessary tool for the investigation, exploration, analysis, evaluation and expression of ideas and experiences encountered in Inquiry 111. First-year students receive instruction and practice in essential skills and forms of written expression. The course in writing capitalizes on the substance of the Inquiry courses to motivate learning-specific skills in written expression and to enhance teaching and learning in Inquiry. WRI 111 or an approved equivalent is required of all first-year students. Students must earn a grade of C- or better in order to meet this requirement.
Oral Communication
Like writing, the mastery of oral expression skills is essential for success in college, a vocation, and throughout life. The first-year course in oral communication provides a basic grounding in these skills. Oral communication capitalizes on the substance of the Inquiry courses to motivate learning-specific skills in oral expression, and to enhance teaching and learning in Inquiry. SPE 111 or an approved equivalent is required of all first-year students.

Portsmouth boys blast CBNA
Wednesday, February 13, 2013
PORTSMOUTH — If you need a quick sampling of how things are going for the Portsmouth High School boys basketball team, just take a look at Nick Mackey's effort late in Tuesday's game against Coe-Brown.
It's pretty easy to play with a certain swagger when you hit 14 of your first 19 shots even before the pregame music has a chance to run out of the building.
"Colin came out and had a big first quarter for us," said Mulvey. "He came out hot, had nine points, and we really went from there." |

Pegylated Interferon Alfa-2a Salvage Therapy in High Risk Polycythemia Vera (PV) or Essential Thrombocythemia (ET)
- Full Text View

- How to Read a Study Record
The aim of this research is to look at two conditions, Essential Thrombocythemia (ET) and Polycythemia Vera (PV). ET causes people to produce too many blood cells called platelets and PV causes too many platelets and red blood cells to be made. Platelets are particles which circulate in the blood stream and normally prevent bleeding and bruising. Having too many platelets in the blood increases the risk of developing blood clots, which can result in life threatening events like heart attacks and strokes. When the number of red blood cells is increased in PV this will slow the speed of blood flow in the body and increases the risk of developing blood clots.
It is important for patients with ET or PV who are at risk of blood clots to receive drugs which will minimize the risks of developing these blood clots but at the moment the investigators are not sure which drugs will best control the disorder.
The purpose of this study is to look at the effectiveness of giving patients who have been diagnosed with ET and PV a study drug regimen using Aspirin and PEGASYS (also known as Pegylated interferon alfa-2a, instead of the standard treatment drug called Hydroxyurea (or hydroxycarbamide or Hydroxyurea), for whom this drug may not be suitable. The drug may not be suitable either because it is not adequately controlling the number of blood cells or some specific side effects occur.

Official Title: | Single Arm Salvage Therapy With Pegylated Interferon Alfa-2a for Patients With High Risk Polycythemia Vera or High Risk Essential Thrombocythemia Who Are Either Hydroxyurea Resistant or Intolerant or Have Had Abdominal Vein Thrombosis |
- Evaluate the ability of Pegylated Interferon Alfa-2a to achieve Complete Response or Partial Response in patients with (1) high risk polycythemia vera or (2) high risk essential thrombocythemia or (3) splanchnic vein thrombosis [ Time Frame: 4 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- To evaluate the toxicity and tolerability of therapy Pegylated Interferon Alfa-2a in each of the 3 strata by recording the number of adverse events that occur during the study by using CTC 4.0 as the guide. [ Time Frame: 4 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
- To measure the impact of Pegylated Interferon Alfa-2a on key biomarkers of the disease(s)by measuring the JAK2 allele burden. [ Time Frame: 4 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- To evaluate specific pre-defined toxicity and tolerance of Pegylated Interferon Alfa-2a through a sequential structured symptom assessment package of patient reported outcome instruments. [ Time Frame: 4 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Improvement in disease symptoms will be measured by the Myeloproliferative Neoplasm Symptom Assessment Form (MPN-SAF) instrument being used in this study.
- To estimate survival, and incidence of development of myelodysplastic syndrome, myelofibrosis, or leukemic transformation after Pegylated Interferon Alfa-2a. [ Time Frame: 4 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]We plan to capture the rate of disease progression to a more advanced myeloid malignancy.
- Estimate the observed incidence of major cardiovascular events after therapy Pegylated Interferon Alfa-2a. [ Time Frame: 4 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Capture and record the cardiovascular events that occur during the study.
- To measure the impact of Pegylated Interferon Alfa-2a on JAK2-V617F, hematopoietic cell clonality in platelets and granulocytes in females, bone marrow histopathology, and cytogenetic abnormalities. [ Time Frame: 4 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]The impact of PEGASYS on JAK2 will be measured by the allele burden; hematopoietic cell clonality will be measured by whether patients with clonal disease return to polyclonal; bone marrow histopathology will be measured by going from abnormal to normal; cytogenetic abnormalities will be measured by seeing if the cytogenetics go from abnormal to normal.

When Ancient & Lost Civilizations meets Religion & Spirituality meets Alien Encounters, where do you put this, when they all become one and the same?
There was once a great king named Alalu. He was king of his entire world. He lived on a world much different than Earth. It was a radiant planet. It didn't need the rays from its star to keep it warm. Good thing, since this planet had an elliptical orbit, which would bring it very close to its star and then send it far out in space, every 36,000 years. When this planet was far from the star, the planet's thick atmosphere and volcanic activity would keep it warm. When it was close to the star the same atmosphere would protect it from the intense radiation. But over time the atmosphere of this world had eroded and it was determined that on the next pass close to the star the atmosphere would not protect their world. Something had to be done.
Anu had ambitions for the throne. He thought he would make a better king. He was younger and more fit. And in their tradition, he challenged Alalu to a wrestling match. Anu, being much younger than Alalu, defeated him and was made king. Alalu was disgraced. He had to do something to get back the respect he deserved and his title. He knew from their history that on previous close passes to the star that there was an inner planet which could be the solution to Alalu's problem and his planet's salvation, a golden planet. But many thought this planet was a myth.
So the great Alalu devised a plan. He would travel to this golden planet and prove that is was real. His scientists believed that if they had enough gold, they could turn it into dust and spread it around the planet, and that would insulate it from the star's radiation on the next pass. But, traveling to the golden planet would not be easy. There was a belt of asteroids between Alalu's planet and the golden planet. They had sent many ships to try and breach the "Hammered Bracelet" but none ever returned, smashed by asteroids. But Alalu, the original hero, would find a way.
The year was 441,000 b.c. and Alalu set out into space all alone with little hope of breaching the Hammered Bracelet and finding the mythical golden planet. But somehow he succeeded, he brought with him a weapon of great power. This weapon was supposedly based on some kind water technology. Alalu was able to use it to push asteroids out of his way. He made it to the inner planets and found the planet of gold. He approached the planet and surveyed it from space. The myth was real. This planet was indeed filled with gold. It was everywhere. So he landed to take direct measurement in order to be sure before contacting his home world.
Using his communication instrument, which used some sort of crystal, he contacted his home world and gave them the news. Nibiru was saved. They launched ship after ship, following Alalu's path and came to the golden planet. And the entire history of the Human race follows from that moment. The golden planet was Earth.
No one knows for sure what happened to Alalu but it is known that he died on Earth and was buried in a cave on Mars. Someday we may find that cave.
This story comes from thousands of years in the past, all the way back to the great flood of 11,000 b.c.
Why haven't you been told about this? You know why. They say that it is all just a myth. Well, once upon a time Earth was a myth.
"Have you discovered your beginning that you now seek your end?" --J.C.

The Dyno dominates as Maxime Nocher claims the Under 21 World Champion Title
The IKA Kiteboard Race World Championships hit Poetto Beach, one of the most famous beaches in Sardinia. The Yacht Club Caligari was at centre stage for the Master and Junior World Chamionship Race from May 12th – 18th.
The trade Mistral wind blew in from the north-west delivering world class conditions for the first day of the competition. North Kiteboarding Rider Maxime Nocher was there to fight for the Under 21 World Champion Title, but faced hot competition from Maks Zakowski (Poland.) With strong and gusty winds increasing throughout the day, riders put in a fantastic performance around the simple course, crossing the finish line that ran parallel to a crowded and cheering beach. Maxime put in an outstanding effort, although it wasn't enough to put him in the lead, leaving him and Maks neck and neck after the first day of competition.
Day two was greeted by a change in wind conditions, much to Maxime's delight. The usual Mistral switched to Libeccio, a south-west onshore wind. After repositioning the course to suit the conditions, competition got underway. Choosing a 17 m Dyno, Maxime dominated all four of his races with ease putting him ahead of Polish rival Maks Zakowski, and at the top of the leader board.
As the Libeccio wind continued into day three, Maxime lost out to Maks, giving him a double victory and turning up the heat for the two riders looking to claim the title. Continuing into day four, the final day, Maxime pulled out all the stops rigging an 11m Dyno. Blasting across the finish line first in the last three races gave him the Under 21 World Champion Title.
Catching up with him after the competition he says; " I'm stoked about the title and my result against Maks, as he is talented and a phenomenally dedicated rider, committed to training hard every day. I'm positive about the Worlds in Turkey, as I have been training hard and am doing my best to push the limits. I don't worry about the conditions really as I am confident that the Dyno is the best inflatable kite out there, which allows me to concentrate on the race."
Kite Race World Championships 2012 - Cagliari
In the history of Kiteboarding all that took part in the champagne racing conditions in Cagliari bay last week will always remember this event as the start of something really really big in our sport. Over 220 riders from 40 countries met in a showdown of colour, excitement & crashes for this was the start of a new road for many competitiors now that kiteboarding has replaced windsurfing for the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio.
In the mens fleet, racing started with a qualifying series, with three groups of 51 sailors each which were re-seeded by the first racing days results before the fleet got split into Gold/Silver/Bronze for the final series day. In the womens fleet, a single opening series was run over the first three days, followed by a medal race series on Sunday.
North riders were joined by kite designer Ken Winner & production manager Dirk Hanel - most using the new North Dyno Ltd & battling it out in the first 2 days to gain selection for the much sought after Gold fleet. It was close racing amongst Maxim Nocher (FRA), Olivier Dansin (FRA), Florian Gruber (GER), Blajez Ozog (POL) with Oliver Bridge (GB) not far away.
The womans fleet saw 2012 European Champion - Steph Bridge come head to head daily with Johnny's sister- Erika Heineken. Brazilian rider -Nayara Licariao & Alice Brunacci (ITA) took top 10 results during this qualifying series.
After day 3 the top 10 riders from the girls fleet & top 10 riders from the mens went head to head in a medal race to determine the 2012 World Champion. All could be lost or gained in an 8 minute umpired fleet race which was carried out in gusty offshore conditions. The beach scene was huge & North kiteboarding provided the much needed support for the competitors that made it to the final.
It was the womens turn first, with the whole fleet starting on starboard towards the first leg, and the battle was on between Steph Bridge and Erika Heineken. Being only one point separated, it was open for virtually every sailor who qualified for the medal race series to win the event. In the end it was Steph Bridge taking the win in this race, meaning that both Erika and Steph were tied in points now and whoever won the last race would take the tittle. Coming in in third, it was Nayara Licariao (BRA, North). Race 2 of this medal race day was more of a challenge to fight back after a windshift on the start line & steph's chance of her 5th World tittle was looking in doubt. Pushing the board hard & using the bands of wind to her advantage was not enough, a 1 point defeat & steph took home the Silver medal while 4th place went to Nayara Licariao (BRA and 8th to Alice Brunacci (ITA).
The men's medal race involved huge place changes, crashes & penalty turns & the eventual results were Maxime Nocher (FRA) in 5th place, Florian Grubber (GER) in 7th place while Olivier Dansin (FRA) was in 8th position. Disappointment for Blazej Ozog (POL) who was black flagged on the final gold medal race & this pushed him out of the medal race day to finish in 14th overall.
Other huge success's for the North team were for Ken Winner who was 3rd overall in the Grandmasters and Oliver Bridge (GB) who at age 15 became Youth World Champion with Jannis Maus (GER) in 2nd & Oswald Smith (RSA) 3rd. Race Team Manager - Dirk Hanel had some bad luck in the qualifying series however what was apparent at this event was the level to which kite racing is now going to be with most athletes taking this full time in their run up to Rio 2016.

WINDFORCE™ 3X Anti-Turbulence Cooling - Super Cool! Super Quiet!
GV-R797OC-3GD and GV-R795WF3-3GD feature WINDFORCE™ 3X Cooling Technology, GIGABYTE's innovative new generation triple-fan solution with patented anti-turbulence inclined fans and three 8mm pure copper heat pipes. The combination of anti-turbulence inclined fans and pure copper heat pipes helps to reduce excessive heat and minimizes the flow of turbulence between fans. For GV-R797OC-3GD and GV-R795WF3-3GD, GIGABYTE creates the unique "Triangle Cool" Technology (patent pending) to enhance the speed of heat dissipation.
"Triangle Cool" Technology
Different from traditional linear heat transfer solution, GV-R797OC-3GD and GV-R795WF3-3GD are equipped with GIGABYTE's latest exclusive "Triangle Cool" Technology to reach a better cooling performance. The latest patent pending technology combines fin with clip module in a special triangle shape. With the original anti-turbulence structure plus the new triangle cooling design, it enhances the efficiency of heat dissipation dramatically by minimizing the flow of turbulence between fans. Therefore, the "Triangle Cool" Technology enables GV-R797OC-3GD and GV-R795WF3-3GD to provide a more efficient air flow for the cooling system. It's proved that the temperature of GV-R797OC-3GD is reduced by 15% compared to stock fan by "Triangle Cool" Technology design.

The Rolls Royce of Graphics Cards
Reviewed by Tony Coleby. Review Posted 27/04/2013
Oh I've upgraded my graphics card before but this time it's serious. I decided to treat myself not to a make-do cheapo card but an (almost) top-of-the-line piece of kit.
I can play games at 1920x1200, 60FPS, 100FPS even 200FPS that make my PS3 weep with feelings of inadequacy.
I can use it to mine cryptocurrencies.
Hell, I can even do both at the same time.
6/5 buy this card without hesitation.

This card along with never settle bundle it just so great deal - mind that this is NOT 800MHz as stated but comes as 1GHz Card. Bit noisy during gaming but i never expected that kind of GPU to be silent. I have tested this card on 1200/1400 and its stable but frankly i do not even need more power so its running on stock 1000MHz/1250MHZ (5000 effectively) Thanks Dabs.

A cautionary tale: Stick with official state site for license renewal
Sunday, February 17, 2013
MILTON — Town resident John Gemas felt misled after he tried to get his license renewed through a private company, but instead found his credit card charged for a different purpose.
Gemas recalled that when he was making the online payment, the transaction was "red flagged" by the bank when he tried using two of his credit cards. The transaction finally went through when he used his Sears credit card.
"I would be comfortable saying it appears to be confusing" as to what services the company is offering, said McGowan.
When asked why a bank would "red flag" a transaction to driverlicense-assistance.com, he said there must be a miscommunication or misunderstanding with the website, and that various card companies treat transactions to his company differently.
"There's no reason to go to a website," said Van Dongen. "Technically they're providing a service, but it's a service you don't need."

schindler residence, san Francisco
Jay Serrao, AIA, Serrao Design | Architecture
Louvers and a low-slung roofline help tie the upper-level addition to the original house. Serrao set the addition back, deferring to Schindler's work while also creating private space outside the master suite.
serrao design | architecture, san francisco
Adding onto an iconic piece of architecture can be intimidating, but the seamless extensions proposed for this 1950 house by Rudolph Schindler earned nothing but praise from the judges. They agreed that "the work added enhances the original." The low-slung house is spread out on a double lot, a little world unto itself with a courtyard and garden, but it's something of an oddball on the street. "The other homes are tall and compact and go right up to the property line," says Jay Serrao, AIA. "Our challenge was to add onto the house in a respectful way, while relating it to its surroundings."
A thin upper-level addition follows the spatial logic of the original house, flipping its L shape to accommodate a master suite and private deck. That move floats the addition's bulk against the property line and helps to mediate the scale difference. Another L form projecting into the lower rear garden will house an office/guest room and provide a roof deck outside the living room above. The additions' louvers reference the opaque operable louvers designed by Schindler, but they're smaller than the originals and made of frosted glass, deftly playing old against new.

Magento Fleet Explainer
Over the past few months, we have been developing, tinkering and perfecting a brand new platform that will completely change the way you approach managing a website – Fleet. But what is Fleet? How does it work? We've asked Miriam Margolyes to help us explain it. Here's a sneak peak at the script – stay tuned for the full, animated video! The problem for many online retailers is that web hosting has become far too complicated. It's easy to see why. If your website goes down, sales go down with it, as well as your brand's reputation. So, most big websites take a 'belts and braces' approach by adding extra everything — just in case. But all of these bits and bobs and extra everythings cost extra money — and get in...

OpenCloud: Thoughts on Pricing Models
The Engineering group has spent much of the last six months developing Anchor OpenCloud, an infrastructure-as-a-service platform built on OpenStack to offer our customers access to public cloud services in addition to our traditional managed VPS hosting. Instant, on-demand API access to instance provisioning, storage allocation and network management deserves an equally flexible and high-resolution pricing model, and a metering system to support it. Something we've been thinking extensively about is how we can best help users assess their infrastructure costs. We think that an invoice detailing (and demanding payment for) your usage over the last month as 256 hours of instance type x and 100 hours of instance type y, while technically accurate, often isn't the best way of helping users understand where their cost-centres are and how they...

Making Magento Shine with Varnish – Part 1
Developing for the web can be overwhelming – the stack of technologies involved has only grown over the years, whilst customers demand faster and more responsive websites. Performance is often an afterthought, partly because it can be tricky to define. New features are tangible and easily demonstrated, but it can be difficult to make a business case for performance during the development stage. Yet as studies by Akamai, Google and Amazon have shown, the success of e-commerce sites in particular is closely linked to how they perform. Magento is a popular e-commerce framework that offers a wealth of customisation through an extensible design, though this flexibility can easily result in slow, sluggish websites if you aren't careful. But what does it even mean for a website to be slow or...

HTTP Basic Authentication in Snap Framework
Hi, I'm Geoffrey Roberts, one of the web developers at Anchor. I'd like to discuss something I've built in Haskell, and hopefully give you some ideas for other things you can do in terms of web development with the language. I've been working on some web frontends in Snap Framework lately, and came to a point where I needed to know who was accessing the frontend, and whether they were allowed to use it. Seeing as the application needed to support both human-visible and RESTful interfaces, I realised that I couldn't really use any off the shelf authentication methods. While Snap does provide you with something out of the box to do authentication, it's intended for human-usable interfaces only, since it's reliant on cookie-identified sessions. Also, most of our other...

If your server is a function, is your company a library?
Our Anchorite, Head of Engineering Andrew Cowie will be giving a talk next week at the Commerial Users of Functional Programming conference in Gothenburg, Sweden. The abstract for the talk, titled "If your server is a function, is your company a library?" This article gives an interesting perspective on some of the cool stuff our Engineering department is up to. ==== Haskell is lauded for being a good foundation for building high quality software. The strong type system eliminates huge classes of runtime errors, laziness-forced-purity aides in separating messy IO from pure computational work, and the wealth of tools like quickcheck mean that individual codebases can be robustly unit tested. That's fine when your service runs from a single program. Building anything larger requires integration testing of components and that...

Startmate 2015: Accelerating Australian Tech Start-ups
The 2015 Startmate accelerator program is now open for applications from budding start-up entrepreneurs looking for a leg-up. Globally recognised, the Australian Startmate program has helped many tech start-ups become established and build that necessary momentum. One side effect of the rapid evolution in digital technology is the vibrant tech start-up industry. Newspapers love to report on new start-ups that are suddenly acquired for astronomical sums because of the freshness of the idea and the elegance of the solution. Of course, the main aim of most tech start-ups is to achieve a stable and growing business model, instead of chasing the unrealistic hope of mega deals and digital stardom. Yet, for every Instagram or Dropbox, there are hundreds of otherwise stunning ideas that never even make it to launch. Turning...

OpenStack – the open cloud
No one likes vendor lock-in. It's an artificial limitation on technology, designed to benefit the vendor, not the customer. The restrictions may seem insignificant on day one, when the technology may appear to be the best option currently available. But the world keeps spinning and technology keeps evolving, until you're stuck with a platform that cannot appropriately adapt to suit your new situation without considerable expense. The big, proprietary public cloud vendors of today didn't invent vendor lock-in, but they certainly know how to work it to their advantage. Cloud Computing isn't owned by anyone. Companies locked into a proprietary cloud service lose the flexibility needed to make good business decisions; making vendor lock-in a real threat to your competitive advantage. What might put you ahead one day can hold you back the...

Why OpenStack matters
I'm excited about OpenStack. "But you're a cloud computing nerd anyway," you say. "Why should we care?" I've worked in a few cloud businesses over the years in both London and Sydney, watching cloud computing evolve from niche technology to mainstream buzzword. So, yes I can get disproportionally excited about things that may seem boringly technical and nerdy to others. You're probably not that interested in the capabilities of an Intel 12 core Xeon E5-2697v2 CPU, for example. But I think OpenStack is different, and something all businesses should be aware of, because it's going to change the way you manage your business data and hosting. This open source cloud platform is on the cusp of disrupting the cosy, established world of the proprietary cloud providers, just as they themselves...
