Provide your information below and an Admissions Advisor will contact you shortly to answer your questions about UAT and your Advancing Technology degree program of interest.
Required Fields Are Highlighted
University of Advancing Technology is an elite, private college that serves its student body by fostering knowledge creation and academic excellence in an environment that embraces the young technophiles of the world. With three centers of research and a suite of technology-centered undergraduate and graduate degrees, the University is a recognized leader in technology education.
The Southern Colorado Girls STEM group lead by Professor Jill Coddington, UAT Program Champion in Advancing Computer Science and Robotics, spent the weekend at UAT's Tempe campus for a Future You University event during June 10-13, to offer these students a taste of the technology-infused innovation that surrounds our students each and every day.
These 17 middle school students won a STEM competition and their prize was a technology-filled experience at UAT. Over the weekend, the girls participated in workshops and seminars, campus tours, a weekend stay in UAT Founder's Hall dormitory, Veggie car races, a 3D printing demo, Innovation Games, fun with Lego Robots, intro to Network Security, film screening and info session, time in the Maker Lab and movie night.
For many of these students, this was their first time flying on an airplane, visiting Arizona and living in a college dorm. It's great to see teenage girls ages 13-15 getting excited about college and technology at a younger age than many typical college bound students.
Mark Chaszar, General Manager at UAT Founder's Hall said, "The girls had an absolute blast! They were so excited to experience what it's like to attend college and play with our awesome technology. I bet we'll see some of them back at UAT as students in the future!"
Professor Jill Coddington who spearheaded this initiative said, "The Future You U was an eye-opening event for the STEM girls that participated. Living in dorms and having roommates they did not know was only the beginning of the "college life" experience. They learned about many possible STEM degrees at UAT and got a taste of each with hands-on seminars to learn and explore. It was an exciting and amazing opportunity for this group of Colorado girls!"
Thanks to Professor Jill Coddington for arranging this wonderful experience!
The UAT Robotics Team (The G33K Squad) competed in its second Southwest Regional VEX-University (VEX U) Championship on Saturday, March 5, coinciding with the commencement of Spring Break at UAT.
Five dedicated UAT Robotics students who took the VEX Competition class during the fall semester, formed the core team, built the robots and competed in the VEX U event. The team consisted of Daniel Carpenter, Garrett Tidd, Alexander Gregory, Daniel Molnar and David Hendrix.
Despite a rough beginning due to problems during robot inspection, as well as missing two of our six matches due to reasons beyond our control, The G33K Squad provided a strong showing with the third highest points overall in the preliminary matches (despite not having scored points for two matches).
This was a monumental accomplishment showcasing the hard work, dedication, determination and downright will to win from The G33k Squad.
Because the competition was held over Spring Break, students already knew their grades, yet went above and beyond what was necessary to put in countless hours of hard work designing an impressively accurate shooting robot nicknamed "Sharp Shooter."
The overall concept of the game was to construct robots that can shoot 5-inch foam nerf-like balls into large netted targets on opposite ends of a 15 x 15 square foot field.
Each match was 1 minute and 45 seconds in length. During the last 30 seconds of the competition, there was an opportunity to score extra points and The G33K Squad gave it a shot! If one of the two team robots could successfully lift the other robot into the air, an additional 50 points is scored. Each ball that landed in the high basket is worth 5 points – so one single successful lift is equivalent to 10 baskets.
The G33K Squad, coached by UAT Robotics Professor Mark Fedasiuk, developed a game winning strategy to make one static robot without wheels that never moved during the match. The robot was designed to shoot VEX balls with near perfect accuracy and repeatability. It was also able to sink about 95 percent of its shots from crosscourt at more than one shot per second.
It turned out that The G33K Squad's strategy was highly successful and yielded results far beyond expectations. In one match we scored 138 points out of the maximum of 148, only missing two balls and successfully accomplishing the lift.
"Much was learned at this competition," said Professor Fedasiuk. "We will use our new found knowledge in developing our strategy for next year. Our sights are set to win the finals and advance to the world championship."
Rest assured the G33K Squad is anxiously awaiting their next competition in 2017.
Congrats to the G33K Squad!
"Inhuman: The Next & Final Phase of Man is Here" is not fiction or a mockudrama but a new investigative documentary from Defender Films and Raiders News Productions.
Inhuman travels the globe to unveil for the first time how breakthrough advances in science, technology and philosophy—including cybernetics, bioengineering, nanotechnology, machine intelligence and synthetic biology are poised to create mind-boggling game changes to everything we have known until now about Homo sapiens.
As astonishing technological developments push the frontiers of humanity toward far-reaching morphological transformation (which promises in the very near future to redefine what it means to be human), an intellectual and fast-growing cultural movement known as transhumanism intends the use of these powerful new fields of science and technology as tools that will radically redesign our minds, our memories, our physiology, our offspring, and even perhaps—as Professor Joel Garreau, Lincoln Professor of Law, claims—our immortal souls.
The technological, cultural, and metaphysical shift now underway unapologetically forecasts a near future dominated by a new species of unrecognizably superior humans, and applications under study now to make this dream a reality are being funded by thousands of government and private research facilities around the world. As viewers will learn, this includes rewriting human genetics, combining human and animal DNA, and interfacing our brains with strong artificial intelligence systems.
As a result, new modes of perception between things visible and invisible are expected to challenge bioethics in ways that are historically, sociologically and theologically unprecedented. Without comprehending what is quickly approaching in related disciplines of research and development, vast numbers of individuals could soon be paralyzed by the most fantastic—and far-reaching—implications.
The destiny of each individual—as well as the future of their families—depends on their knowledge of this new paradigm, an unprecedented time in earth's history already being called the "Hybrid Age."

UAT was the last stop on AZ Tech Beat's #ExposeTheAwesome Tour, where they had a neat idea to interview cool companies in various technology fields throughout the summer. We had a busy day planned for AZTB Editor Tishin Donkersley, Community Manager Ryan Loebe and Film Intern Xavier Smith, but we knew they were ready for it!
First, they sat down with Provost Dr. David Bolman to find out why UAT is unique and how access to great technology molds our students into innovators for the future. Dr. Bolman had no trouble expressing his enthusiasm for technology and how important UAT is to filling the STEM career pipeline in Arizona.
As suggested by Dr. Bolman, we gave Network Forensics Professor Diane Barrett a phone call, as she lives remotely and teaches online classes, to inquire how different the reality of cyber forensics is from how it's portrayed on television. Interestingly enough, most TV shows tend to exaggerate the time it takes to conduct these type of investigations. They are never solved within an hour like Hollywood would have you think.
Next, the AZTB crew was led on a tour of campus, having a chance to peek into each classroom, lab, workshop and office; asking questions, snapping photos and broadcasting to periscope along the way.
We decided to check out the Maker's Lab and speak with Digital Maker and Fabrication Professor Spencer Nelson about all of the tools available for students to use. There is a 3D printer, a laser engraver, vinyl cutter, Roland CNC Mill, vacuum former, foam cutter, various hand power tools and more! Everything you need for building models, making signs or designing props. Just ask Professor Nelson if you want to use a tool, but don't know where to start.
While wrapping up an interview with Professor Nelson, we were able to catch Professor Vesna Dragojlov to ask about wearable technology. Professor Dragojlov thinks that women could have some influence on wearable tech if it's fused with fashion.
Next, we took a moment to talk film production with Professor Paul DeNigris and film students Jordan Wippell and Brandon Scott. Tishin asked what trends are hot for filming special effects and believe it or not, the audience has struggled with feeling that CGI looks real for some time now, so film sets are looking back to techniques from the 70s of building small models to make the environment appear more realistic. They also got to explore the Green Room and Film Production room see where all the editing magic happens.
The tour continued on to the Robotics Hardware Lab where Professor Mark Fedasiuk talked about the Robotics and Embedded Systems degree. He also demonstrated a Harry Potter location clock, built by a robotics student and talked about upcoming trainings with VEX Robotics.
With back-to-back interviews all morning, the AZ Tech Beat crew was famished, so we had lunch in the campus cafe among tech students who were refueling before an afternoon of classes.
Our last stop for the day was to the New Technologies Lab to speak with UAT Game Studios Professor Derric Clark to find out the latest news in video game creation. Professor Clark described the types of gaming degrees we offer, what our game students are expected to do, how gaming is shaping the landscape in Phoenix and also gave a short teaser about a cool project the game students are working on to bring the Hohokam Ruins and Canals to life with a simulated map.
We really enjoyed showing AZ Tech Beat around our campus and can't wait to see their video footage from the tour!

The first annual Great Arizona Code Challenge took place at Infusionsoft Headquarters the weekend of July 24-25, offering 38 high school students the opportunity to attend coding seminars taught by UAT Professors, where they could ask questions and discuss their ideas.
The Code Challenge started off with an ice breaker in order for the programmers to get acquainted and to inspire collaboration within the group.
Infusionsoft provided attendees with a comfortable and fun work space where they could code around the clock to create an original game for the coding competition. Students who did not have their own technology were able to borrow laptops from Infusionsoft.
Students stayed fueled over the weekend with sodas, snacks, pizza and Jimmy Johns delivery. It's not all work and no play! They even had a chance to relax by playing fussball, ping pong or shooting pool in the beautiful office space.
Students from all over the Valley participated in the 36-hour hackathon. Many of them didn't take a break for the night and pulled all nighters like true programmers who tend to find themselves in the zone!
Two of UAT's professors taught seminars that really impressed and inspired the participants, ranging from 9-12th graders.
Professor Mark Fedasiuk presented "Robotics and Robot demonstrations" and sparked interest with a robot that does facial recognition in a crowd or from an image.
Professor Hue Henry presented "Game Engines and Scripting" which opened the students eyes to the wonders and power of game engines.
During the closing ceremony on Sunday, the winners of the Great Arizona Code Challenge Arianna Sokolov and Laura Lu were awarded partial scholarships to attend University of Advancing Technology upon graduation from high school.
A huge thanks to the UAT Professors involved as well as the many volunteers from Infusionsoft, high school teachers, engineers, software developers and parents in the community for being part of this awesome event preparing local high school students for a future in technology!

In MR. ROBOT, Elliot, a young programmer who works as a cyber-security engineer by day and vigilante hacker by night, is recruited by a mysterious underground group to destroy the firm he's paid to protect. Elliot must decide how far he'll go to expose the forces he believes are running (and ruining) the world.
"Sometimes the only way to change the world is to tear it down."
Mr. Robot has themes similar to UAT's Bachelor of Science Network Security or Bachelor of Science Network Engineering degrees. Elliot probably took an ethics class to keep him on the straight and narrow, which is offered as part of the curriculum in these majors.

For the last several years, PayPal headquartered in Scottsdale, Ariz., has been celebrating World Usability Day, with a series of events, networking opportunities and prizes. This past November some of the local companies, such as PayPal themselves, Pearson and 29th Drive Design Studio have shared some of their out of the box strategies to increase customers engagement.
PayPal's design team gave a presentation that showcased how customer engagement is at the core of every change they made in their online environment. Pearson publishing company gave an inspiring presentation about the incorporation of their weekly co-design sessions with children ages 7-12 into the product development process. 29th Drive Design studio conducted a brief brainstorming session/workshop about how to build the fastest airplane using provided basic material.
Molly Satterfield, our HCI alum, was part of the planning committee for the event as also and active member of IxDA Association. Seven of my students from HCI program and Digital Media attended the event which gave them a great opportunity to compare knowledge they have gained in a classroom setting with the real world design thinking at play in big successful companies such as PayPal. Some of them also won good prizes, which made the event even more worthwhile for them.
Companies such as IBM and Kydak came to recruit new young designers and our students had the opportunity to talk to them and to possibly set the stage for their internship and future job placement.
Our Human Computer Interaction (Interaction Design) major maybe still be small, mostly due in part of the reason is still being relatively young at UAT), our HCI graduates immediately secure jobs in their fields of study as soon as they graduate.
Jaylyn Dawson, our HCI alum, was offered employment by Dish Network out of Denver, Colo., as soon as she graduated, as a junior interaction designer.
Molly Satterfield, also HCI alum, had a great opportunity to do her internship at a medical office as a user testing expert. As soon as she graduated, she has been employed by KV Consultants, Inc. as a UI designer.
Josh Vargas, current HCI student, took an opportunity with a software company for a paid internship.
As the demand for UX/UI Designers in many high tech companies grows with high paying salaries we hope that this situation will give us the opportunity to recruit more HCI students as we grow the program in the next few years.

As Immunotherapy Revolutionizes the Cancer Treatment...
Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research (LICR) and Polaris Group formed a collaboration to expand development of Polaris' pegylated arginine deiminase (ADI-PEG 20), a cancer drug candidate that kills tumor cells by depleting the amino acid arginine. The firms will also try to identify other amino acid-degrading enzymes with antitumor activity.
The collaboration builds on an existing relationship under which LICR and Polaris have studied ADI-PEG 20 in melanoma. The partners are now conducting a Phase II trial in small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) that was initiated in December 2010. LICR is the sponsor of the SCLC clinical trial and is sharing expenses and resources with Polaris to conduct the trial.
ADI-PEG 20 works by systemically depleting the external supply of arginine, which causes arginine-dependent cancer cells to die while leaving the normal cells unharmed. Phase II trials have yielded positive results in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma or metastatic melanoma, and Phase II trials for small cell lung cancer and mesothelioma are currently ongoing.
"The current trial of ADI in patients with SCLC is particularly exciting because of the strong preclinical antitumor activity in SCLC models, the high frequency of arginine-dependence in SCLC, and the initial striking sensitivity of SCLC to cytotoxic agents," notes Lloyd J. Old, M.D, director of LICR's New York branch and William E. Snee chair in immunology at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center.
"Because arginine dependence appears to be a characteristic of many tumor types, LICR and Polaris have decided to establish a formal partnership to explore the full potential of ADI in human cancer therapy and to use our joint strengths to identify other amino acid-degrading enzymes with antitumor activity," Dr. Old adds.

Gilead Sciences hit an all-time high last week, and one long-term trade is betting that the stock won't collapse.
optionMONSTER's tracking systems detected the sale of 2,000 January 2015 25 puts in one print for $0.88. Open interest in the strike was only 104 contracts before the session began, so this is clearly a new position.
GILD rose 1.07 percent to $45.43 on Friday. The biopharmaceutical stock spiked to a lifetime high of $45.58 last Tuesday after reporting encouraging data on an experimental pill used to treat HIV patients.
Friday's put seller apparently believes that GILD will stay above $25 for nearly two years. If the stock falls below that level, the trader will face the obligation to buy shares at an effective price of $24.12 when the credit from the put sale is included.(See our Education section)

Juan de Escobedo, secretary to Don John of Austria, is assassinated. His murder takes place on the orders of Antonio Perez, secretary to Philip II of Spain. Philip was anxious about the ambitions of his half-brother Don John, who he justifiably suspected of planning an invasion of England for his own personal gain. In this context, Escobedo had been sent by Perez to spy on Don John, but in fact became loyal to his new master. As a result, Escobedo himself became a target of suspicion, and Perez arranged for three swordsmen to stab him to death when he came on a visit to Madrid.

Sally Struthers brings experience, humor to 'Hello, Dolly!'
If the cheerful and idealistic Gloria Stivic had stayed with us during the decades since "All in the Family," what would the intervening years have made of her?
Having won two Emmys playing Meathead's wife, Sally Struthers is back with the answer: The increasingly confident Gloria would have become matchmaker Dolly Levi, rendered sharper and more pragmatic by life's knocks but still every bit as warm and loving, and even more of a stitch. »Read Full Article
Milwaukee Symphony makes most of cathedral setting in concert
The phrase "working the room" clearly means different things to people.
The Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra and associate music director Francesco Lecce-Chong moved their proverbial tent to the Cathedral of St. John on Friday evening and worked the room beautifully with a program of Pärt, Bach and Bruckner that was perfectly tailored to the acoustics and ambience of the space. »Read Full Article
Skaggs, Hornsby pair piano with frenetic fiddlin' around
From the carefully placed microphones to the stringed instruments in the hands of Ricky Skaggs and the six members of Kentucky Thunder, the stage of the Northern Lights Theater at Potawatomi Bingo Casino was clearly set Friday for an evening of bluegrass music.
Had that been the bill, it would have been a fine show of prodigious talent playing the music Skaggs has been mastering since his youth. But there in the middle of the stage was an unusual addition to bluegrass tradition: a grand piano and its own experimental master, Bruce Hornsby. »Read Full Article

First published (as a slightly edited version of the original, below) in the BFI Sight and Sound Magazine, 28 February 2016.
As this goes to press, global capital markets appear to be stabilizing after another period of intense, and scary stock market volatility. This set the context for the arrival in Britain of Adam McKay's The Big Short – a film about the American sub-prime mortgage meltdown, based on the book by Michael Lewis.
It could be argued that the movie is late, and even outdated. But it is not in fact. It ends with the systemic failure of the system in 2007-9 – a crisis that has not gone away. On the contrary, it has rolled around from the US sub-prime housing market and Wall St. and on to the Eurozone, where Greece, Cyprus and Portugal were at the eye of the storm. Today financial volatility is centered on 'emerging' markets and in particular, China, and has unnerved financial markets around the globe.
That the crisis is ongoing should come as no surprise. That a movie about fraudulent traders and a far-seeing hedge fund manager should still seem relevant is as it should be, because the economic model that encouraged reckless and fraudulent practices in the market of dodgy mortgages is still with us. Indeed the model remains wholly intact. Very little has been done to 'reform' or transform the flawed design of an economic architecture that caused destruction of value on a global scale, bankrupted thousands of companies, led to millions of job losses and lowered incomes everywhere. Indeed the model, while still fragile, is more prevalent than it was before. China for example, is the latest adopter of the western model. In January 2016 Chinese banks lent a record 2.51 trillion yuan ($385.40 billion) of new loans, surpassing expectations. Unsurprisingly, the country faces rising levels of unpayable private debts. And worldwide politicians are paying a price as popular discontent plays havoc with established parties.

Advice For Selecting Skilled Bond Back Cleaning Professional
One of the very important steps when thinking about a bond cleaning company would be to check on their reputation. Sometimes it's not as easy as it looks. Make sure you find one that guarantees your bond back. Many cleaning agencies may claim to provide a bond back service, however you may find they don't cover all of the areas needed for your agent to provide your bond back. Ask more information about the services which are going to be included in the cost of the cleaning. You can find moving furniture or added fees for additional services. Our services are provided with a full quote which will help you make sure you know what you are up for from the beginning. If you are in Melbourne and need a competitive yet professional service then High Power Cleaning Services is for you.
You can also ask the vacate cleaning company if they offers any additional services which you may be interested in. Should you need any additional services, the purchase price might be lower if they are performed by them while they are out cleaning your home. We also provide carpet cleaning so you can get even more value from your rental bond back cleaning service. High power cleaning services make sure you get your bond back.
Hiring a professional cleaning business that can improve the overall look, smell and cleanliness of your house will help you make sure you get your bond back. Why clean the home yourself if you have no time, or you need to do other tasks such as packing and moving. It can be a stressful time, so when you move it can be stress free to leave your service to the professionals.
Vacate cleaning can require you also to have a high level clean. There are differences between vacate cleaning and basic cleaning. We have a checklist to make sure we are ticking all the boxes when it comes to the agency you are leasing from. Many agents have specific areas they check and we have been in the industry for many years, so we know also what the requirements are.

Skip to comments.Peterson May Join 'The Qs' Infamous Death Row
Posted on 11/22/2004 5:44:14 AM PST by runningbear
click here to read article
Hope the bastard fries. (Oops, we can't say that anymore. Uh, hope he drifts off to sleep painlessly as he feels nothing and his heart just stops. Well, guess that punishment is better than none, and it's certainly not equal to what he did to Lacey and baby Conner.)
I'm reading this late, but Happy Thanksgiving to you ,Howlin, and everyone else on this thread!
Praying and hoping that Dev comes back soon.
and it's certainly not equal to what he did to Lacey (sic)...
AMEN fiesti!! The semantics game the whole abortion debate plays is so transparent. Anyone with two brain cells to rub together can see how it's played. It fools nobody except those who WANT to be fooled.
Not equal at all. I think he should be duct taped up like a sausage roll, have ceeeeeeeement weights attached to him and then drop the creep in the San Fransico Bay!!
I'm with you on this oceanperch, tried to reach DA by email as well, as I know several others have.
I am concerned, and hope all it is only a case of fried hard drive, something mechanical.
KOVR 13, Sacramento, reported on Friday evenings 10 pm broadcast that Scaught is no longer wearing the orange or red jumpsuit. According to Gloria Gomez, he's on suicide watch and wears a paper gown. Less likelihood of hanging himself I guess with the gown vs coveralls.
More stagecraft by Geragos?
Is he feigning insanity with his dazed appearance after he left the courtroom on verdict day?
On the other hand, it might be finally sinking in that he didn't hatch the 'perfect crime' and that Geragos happily took his and his parents' money while selling them tissue paper rainbows (turned his head, indeed!).
Thanks for the update, DD.
I'm sure as much reality as is possible for Peterson to grasp is being grasped. I think his parents have grasped it!! I still believe that SP's major concern even now, is for Himself sincee that's the ONLY flesh he seems to love.!! No pity here, not even a smidgen.!!
I agree totally! ;-)
I heard a bit of a discussion yesterday about how Geragos' delays are pushing the penalty deliberation closer and closer to the Christmas holidys. Ordinarily, this timing would benefit the guilty party, with a jury reluctant to recommend death and then go enjoy a holiday dinner. However, in this case the timing could harden the jury making them more apt to recommend death.
It will be hard for the jury to recommend life-in-prison, and then send Sharon home to decorate her tree without Laci and Conner present to enjoy it.
Interesting food for thought, and perhaps ANOTHER strike out for Geragos.
Hope everyone's recovering nicely from too much food, inclding Dev.
pinz, when Geragos gets his appeal request denied tomorrow morning, he will have no choice but to go ahead. This last week he will have HAD to get prepared for the penalty phase. Judge Delucchi I'm sure, will NOT allow any more delays.
Lancaster or much of the I5 area we were at, sagebrush, and desert like views.... yuke, I like the Sierra type views..... ;o)
Anyhow, just getting back into the work week.... slow mind going at the moment, and no actual DP hearing on the verdict phase until Tuesday, but all of course pending Geragos charades.....
Thanks for the local report.
Sounds like Scotty's not smirking anymore....
The New York Post is suggesting the Amber might speak for the defense, because she opposes the Death Penalty.
Good grief! Anyone hear anything about this? My guess is that it's just speculation, but still!!!
I heard them discussing this on CC this afternoon. NOBODY expects to see Amber!! She would NOT serve the defense well at all!!
Gaaaaaaaaaw, this thread is pathetic!! Any slower and it would be comatose.

I will start with the bracket stuff...I am looking for a real Partner, a �very few' of my likes are, Birds, Art, photography teaching it or doing it. Orchids, Nature, Eclectic surroundings and thought.
I feel I am good listener, negotiator, I am reserved, outgoing , it's things like this that make it hard for me to take myself too seriously. My humor is dry, offbeat with ( I have been told) an Ironic wit, I also like silly word plays. Talking with people I don't know is usually easy. At large social gatherings I might be a wall flower, or not... I feel in many ways I am an oxymoron. I have learned that life is full of changes ( computer management to (successful) artist / business owner). I don't live in a black & white world, there are too many shades of gray ( no not the book, there are an infinite number, even in photography). I am willing to negotiate with a partner another possible place to live. That too is part of what I am seeking...a partner that also has a willingness to negotiate not fight. Curiosity and a Sensitive and intuitive nature. I have a reasonably well developed female side, so I can go clothes shopping ,decorate, cook , Look for furniture Or talk about Drag racing ( That is, ...cars! ) as well as building stuff. Or growing orchids or raising birds ( not pets,..aviary birds AKA kitty TV !)
I feel I live in 'Catch 22', these test here are a bit difficult when I think the right answer is number5', I get a choice of a,b or c? Hmmmmm.
A bit left of center and enjoy playing the devil's advocate when more critical thinking needs to be brought into a conversation.
I have no problem with (�gentlemen� niceties') I open doors ( for men and women) walk on the outside and open car doors ( well most of the time).
I might seem a bit stiff and reserved at first but ..... that is probably just the observer. Is this safe?
Religion ...how about ...the Golden Rule?
I will need to get back with more........for now this will have to do.
I am Curious, kind, and artistic with business sense.
Music: soft Jazz, world music I like lots of different music. I am not a Music snob! .... I don't like it loud! I can still hear just fine.
Food: I don't eat red meat...Thai, Mexican, Chinese, Italian,other ethnic foods and others I haven't been introduced to.
I have very narrow feet!
When a doctor nearly kills you , although you show no outwards sign . You have a very different perspective on life!

What is intelligence, and where does it come from?

What is intelligence, and where does it come from?
An etiquette update: Brevity is the highest virtue.
I recently cut the amount of time I spent on email by almost half, and I think a lot of people could do the same.
I'm sure my approach has made some people hate me, because I come off curt. But if everyone thought about email in the same way, what I'm suggesting wouldn't be rude. Here are the basic guidelines that are working for me and, so, I propose for all of the world to adopt immediately:
No signoff.
Best? Cheers? Thanks?
None of the above. You can write your name if it feels too naked or abrupt not to have something down there. But it shouldn't, and it wouldn't if it were the norm.
No greeting.
Don't waste time considering if "Dear," or "Hey" or "[name]!" is appropriate. Just get right into it. Write the recipient's name if you must. But most people already know their names. Like they already know your name.
Four days after Hillary Clinton set a trap for her Republican rival, he continues to walk further into it with more attacks on a former Miss Universe.
In the wee hours of the morning on Friday, Donald Trump was on his phone, delivering a series of tweets. At 3:20 a.m.:
Anytime you see a story about me or my campaign saying "sources said," DO NOT believe it. There are no sources, they are just made up lies!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 30, 2016
At 5:14 a.m.:
Wow, Crooked Hillary was duped and used by my worst Miss U. Hillary floated her as an "angel" without checking her past, which is terrible!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 30, 2016
Five minutes later:
Using Alicia M in the debate as a paragon of virtue just shows that Crooked Hillary suffers from BAD JUDGEMENT! Hillary was set up by a con.— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 30, 2016
The Commission on Presidential Debates issued a cryptic statement acknowledging some audio issues Monday night.
After critics savaged his performance at Monday's first presidential debate, Republican nominee Donald Trump alighted on several culprits: Hillary Clinton, the moderator, and especially his microphone.
The claim was met with some skepticism, but on Friday afternoon, the Commission on Presidential Debates seemed to confirm his claim, at least in part. The commission, which controls the debates, released a cryptic statement that reads in full:
Statement about first debate
Sep 30, 2016
Regarding the first debate, there were issues regarding Donald Trump's audio that affected the sound level in the debate hall.
We've called the commission to ask what that means, but have not heard back yet. Presumably, they are receiving dozens of such queries.
With the death of Shimon Peres, Israel has lost its chief optimist. And the prime minister remains paralyzed by pessimism.
The Book of Proverbs teaches us that where there is no vision, the people perish. The people of Israel, now bereft of Shimon Peres, will not perish, because survival—or, at least, muddling through—is a Jewish specialty. But the death of Israel's greatest visionary, a man who understood that it would never be morally or spiritually sufficient for the Jews to build for themselves the perfect ghetto and then wash their hands of the often-merciless world, means that Israel has lost its chief optimist.
Peres was, for so many years, a prophet without honor in his own country, but he was someone who, late in life, came to symbolize Israel's big-hearted, free-thinking, inventive, and democratic promise. Peres came to this role in part because he had prescience, verbal acuity, a feel for poetry, and a restless curiosity, but also because, gradually but steadily, he became surrounded by small men. One of the distressing realities of Israel today is that, in so many fields—technology, medicine, agriculture, literature, music, cinema—the country is excelling. But to Israeli politics go the mediocrities.
Business students are not agreeable, art students are neurotic, and other findings from a recent meta-analysis.
They say it doesn't matter what you major in during college. It might matter, however, if you want your personality to match your chosen field—lest you end up the lone nod-greeter in a marketing class full of exploding fistbumps.
According to a new meta-analysis, there are significant personality differences between students in different academic majors. For the review paper, Anna Vedel, a psychologist from Aarhus University in Denmark, analyzed 12 studies examining the correlation between personality traits and college majors. Eleven of them found significant differences between majors. The review examined the so-called "Big Five" traits: neuroticism, extraversion, openness to experience, agreeableness, and conscientiousness.
Lawmakers overrode an Obama veto for the first time on Wednesday. A day later, they already had regrets.
The enactment on Wednesday of the Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act should have been a triumphant moment for Republican leaders in Congress. They had succeeded, after years of trying, in overriding a presidential veto for the first time and forcing a bill into law over the strenuous objections of Barack Obama.
But the morning after brought no such celebration for House Speaker Paul Ryan and Senate Majority Leader McConnell—only pangs of regret.
"It appears as if there may be some unintended ramifications," McConnell lamented at a press conference barely 24 hours after all but one senator voted to reject the president's veto of the legislation, which would allow victims of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks to sue Saudi Arabia in U.S. court. On the other side of the Capitol, Ryan said that he hoped there could be a "fix" to the very law he allowed to pass through the House—one that would protect U.S. soldiers abroad from legal retribution that the Obama administration had warned for months would follow as a result of the law.
It's natural for humans to pay attention to all their romantic options, and new research shows Facebook helps them do that.
One episode in season five of How I Met Your Mother, called "Hooked," revolves around people being kept "on the hook," romantically speaking, by members of the show's central gang of friends. "I can't be with you … right now" is the phrase the pals keep using to string these people along, the "right now" leaving the door cracked open just enough that apparently some poor guy is willing to continue to do Robin's laundry and rub her feet for the vague possibility of a someday relationship.
This does not make the friends look very good, obviously, but keeping track of and keeping in touch with alternative romantic prospects is a common thing for humans to do, even if it is rarely in such an exaggerated, sitcommy way. A recent study published in Computers in Human Behavior dubs these interactions "backburner relationships." A backburner, as defined by the study, is "a person to whom one is not presently committed, and with whom one maintains some degree of communication, in order to keep or establish the possibility of future romantic and/or sexual involvement."
The Trump Foundation mostly takes in other people's money, but it appears it doesn't have legal permission to solicit donations.
The problem with telling people to follow the money is they just might take you up on it. Donald Trump's campaign has adopted that mantra in reference to the Clinton Foundation, but it applies to him in uncomfortable ways, too.
First, there's the fact that he won't release his tax returns, making it hard to follow the money and raising questions about what might be hidden there. Second, there are his forays into Cuba, apparently in violation of the embargo. Third, there's the latest scoop from The Washington Post's David Fahrenthold, who finds that the Donald J. Trump Foundation was operating without a required license.
As Fahrenthold previously reported, the Trump Foundation is peculiar: Unlike many other similar charities, it's stocked with other people's money. Trump himself has given barely any money to it since the mid-2000s, although he did direct income from places like Comedy Central to the charity, possibly without paying taxes on it. Instead, he has raised money from other donors, which he has used to, among other things, settle legal cases against him, all while basking in the glow of his apparent charity.
Despite an array of calculating tools, comparing financial-aid packages is still an incredibly dense and circular process.
As almost any parent of a high-school senior knows, figuring out the true college price tag is confusing. While the full annual sticker price can be as much as $60,000 or $70,000 at a private college and more than $55,000 at an out-of-state public college, experts say that many students will end up paying considerably less. Sizable merit and need-based aid packages take the sting out of those big numbers.
Students, however, typically have to wait until the spring, when their acceptance letters arrive, to learn the amount of those awards, making it difficult for families to effectively plan a long-term budget and posing significant obstacles for first-generation students who may not be aware of all the financial options.
After Andrea Wulf won the Royal Society's highest honor for her book The Invention of Nature, a writer at The Guardian attributed it to a new fondness for "female-friendly" biographies among prize juries.
Last week, the Royal Society held its ceremony to honor the best popular-science book of the year. I was there, having had the good fortune to be one of the finalists for my recent book, The Hunt for Vulcan. I didn't expect to win—partly because of my baseline pessimism, partly because of the strength of the competition, and partly because I had set out to write a kind of miniature, a brief book on a quirky topic. Whatever the reason, I was right: I didn't.
The event itself was good fun. Each of the authors read a passage from their work; the head judge for the prize, author Bill Bryson, led us in a brief question-and-answer session, in which we compared notes on what moved us to write about science. Then came the moment of truth. Venkatraman Ramakrishnan, the president of the Royal Society, approached the podium, opened the envelope, and announced that Andrea Wulf had won for The Invention of Nature.
In a StoryCorps animation, Patrick Haggerty remembers the remarkable advice he got from his dairy farmer dad.
Could it make you stress less about money? That's what these D.C. residents say.

- i don't believe there is a version of linuxDC++based on 0.261
- i heard dozens upon dozens people complain about hashing when i told them to update their client, hashing is NOT bad, even on a LAN based hub.
- your best bet would be to find an old version of valknut or you're stuck using dc++ 0.621 through wine, although i doubt that will work.
- most newer clients are incompatible with clients that old, that's not on purpose but sometimes cannot be avoided. all the people in that lan-hub should use old clients then. (maybe that's the case, i wouldn't know.)
I'm not offending you here, i give you my viewpoint as a longtime hubrunner, huboperator and DC++ user. (occasional client-hacker as well)
Hm, is linuxdc++ still alive? Just wondering...
The last official release was in 2007 and it's May 2008 now.
I was just wondering.
look here you can see that the last update in cvs was only five days ago (by Stevensheehy), so it's still being worked on.
If you only count the "official" releases (1.0.0 and 1.0.1) there's only been two releases, both released in 2007, but linuxdcpp has been available from cvs longer than that (I've used it since I found this thread in june 2006, with only occasional breakages and minor isses).
I'm sure the next official release will come "when it's ready", i.e when the developer thinks it's necessary.
LinuxDC++ 1.0.2 has been released.
Great release, very stable. Thank you!
If you try to download from GetDeb you cannot find a supported Hardy release.
"Selected Ubuntu version no longer supported by Getdeb, this package will not be updated!"
Wonder why...

It's certainly no secret that the oil business is booming in Weld County. It's common to see large trucks on area roadways hauling drilling equipment to various job sites. Rural Weld motorists have long shared the road with agricultural trucks, tractors and other vehicles; now oil-related traffic has added to the congestion on some roads.
That's why we were pleased to see the approval this month by the Board of Weld County Commissioners of a transfer terminal near Keenesburg to handle up to 68,000 barrels of oil per day. This terminal will transfer oil from pipelines and tanker trucks to railcars for shipment to refineries. Each railcar replaces about three tanker trucks from the roadways; we think that's a good trade-off to alleviate congestion.
We empathize with Keenesburg residents who live near the transfer facility, particularly with their concerns about traffic, noise and dust. We applaud the Weld County commissioners for working out a financial arrangement with Plains All American Pipeline, the installer of the transfer facility, to pave a 3-mile stretch of gravel road on Weld County Road 398 from Keenesburg to the transfer center. The paving is to be financed using one-third of Weld County funds and two-thirds of Plains All American funds. We are hopeful that this paving will alleviate much of the dust issue for Keenesburg neighbors.
Ultimately, pipelines to the facility are proposed by both Noble Energy and Anadarko Petroleum, Weld County's two largest oil and gas companies. While an August completion date has been proposed, commissioners are skeptical of the timeline because of the lengthy process of obtaining right-of-way agreements. Plains All American claims that the completion of these pipelines should reduce much of the tanker truck traffic to the transfer facility.
We encourage Noble, Anadarko and the county commissioners to keep these pipelines moving along to reduce the truck traffic that concerns Keenesburg residents.

"With heavy influences from legendary metal bands, such as Megadeth, Slayer, Randy Rhoads, and Pantera, one can say that Mechanism rocks harder than Crue used to, and they are obvious in their determination to bring back the integrity that was once given to the metal genre, by all of those legends. This is a band that is destined for legendary status, having become one of the most popular metal bands in the pacific northwest. This is a band that the world needs to see and hear."
"'Shadows and Dust' delivers ten tracks that include some unique and powerful cross genre gems to help solidify a diverse release from beginning to end. 'Shadows and Dust' is a fitting title track that reveals Mechanism refining their sound on both a production and musical level. It's heavy but comfortable enough to please fans from multiple genres. 'Illuminati' showcases the band as a tight knit unit and 'Devil with a Gun' is a very cool new tune, along with 'Them'-a zombie apocalypse inspired tune, that reinforces this band is ready for anything. 'And just in case anyone starts thinking Mechanism might be losing the metal edge crank up 'Prepare for War' then think again. If you want the best music then it really doesn't get any better than this. The musicianship is exceptional and the music outstanding. Ultimately the true test is in the listening and the results in the listener. 'Shadows and Dust' by Mechanism is a groundbreaking debut of a band you will hear lots more from."
"The new Mechanism CD "Shadows & Dust" OH MY GOODNESS!! Wait till ya hear this CLASSIC! Might be one the best metal albums out of the Seattle/Tacoma area since one of the classic Metal Church CD's back in the 80s! Brutal, melodic, crushing yet radio friendly!"
"WOW! Dynamite! this is the first band I've ever reviewed that has left me so blown away that I'm searching for words good enough to capture their incredible essence. This is red hot Metal with balls on and wearing tight leathers. I've also coined the term, 'Racy Rock' and that fits too. It means Rock having sex. Throughout the tracks you are a dynamic unit with a B&D element. An explosion that just keeps exploding. Perfect vocalist with a sexy edge for the genre and mind blowing musicians. Great guitar work and a fast paced, hot drummer. The resultant sound achieved is horny and electric with everything at just the right pitch, which gives you a sense of balance as you're falling of your chair in amazement. Personally, I loved the sexy, 'Shameless' and the down to the bone lyrics in 'Money'. Wow guys! All that's left to say is that this is the best band I have reviewed. Bring on the fame! (Michele Boylan. Critic/Reviewer)"
"We are extremely proud to announce our band MECHANISM is KISW 99.9's loud and local featured band of the week!! We are truly honored! Tune into BJ Shea's morning show this Friday (6am to 10am) and listen in as Mechanism is played throughout the show. We owe a huge thanks to Jolene, BJ and KISW! We love you guys!! Please call in to KISW Friday morning if you can and give us some love. Request Mechanism at 1-206-421-ROCK (7625) If you are not in the Seattle/Tacoma Area Tune in at www.kisw.com "
"MECHANISM opening for Hard Rock legends Dokken! Coming up Saturday March 5th at the King Cat Theater in Seattle, WA - Presale tickets available. Hit us up!"

Declaration of the Women peasants of the European Coordination Via Campesina on the 8 of March 2014
- Details
- Published on Thursday, 06 March 2014 14:43
(Evenstad, March 6, 2014) In this year 2014 – declared the year of family farming by the UN – the women of the member organizations of the European Coordination Via Campesina are gathered in Evenstad (Norway) in the International Women's Day. We want to demonstrate our firm commitment to the right to healthy, adequate and good quality food for all citizens, within the framework of an agro-ecological and social mode of production and distribution.
We want the right of farmers to the equal participation within this mode, the legal recognition as producers of food, the access to land, seeds and other resources guaranteed.
Thousands of women farmers across Europe and worldwide work on projects of small scale farming, that are the basis of rich and diverse food systems, we are historical guardians of knowledge and biodiversity, and we ensure the conservation of land and a living countryside.
Chile : Women Farmers To Teach The Region Agroecology

(January 27, 2014) An organisation that brings together some 10,000 peasant and indigenous women from Chile is launching an agroecology institute for women campesinos, or small farmers, in South America.
For years, the National Association of Rural and Indigenous Women (ANAMURI) has been training thousands of people through La Vía Campesina, the international peasant movement, working on the basis of food sovereignty, which asserts the right of people to define their own food systems.
But today it is undertaking its most ambitious project.
November 25th: End violence against women
- Details
- Published on Monday, 25 November 2013 17:20
La Via Campesina International Press Release
(Harare, November 25, 2013) Throughout these 20 years as La Via Campesina, we have recognized the role of women in all aspects of life. In that sense, we have denounced capitalism and patriarchy as the main generators of all types of violence - physical, ethical, psychological, political and economic - which increase discrimination and violence against women, both young and old.
Rural women worldwide experience class violence inherited from an agrarian structure based on large estates: peasant's lack of access to land and the means of production and the lack of conditions for remaining on the land due to the destructive power of agribusiness that today is the expression of Capital in the countryside. This economic model is not only responsible for land grabbing and pushing out farmers from their land, but it is also threatening the life of millions of women worldwide through exposing them to pesticides and other poisonous agrochemicals used in the industrial agriculture model.
Malawi: Small Scale Farmers and Rural Women Share Experiences in farmer-to-farmer exchange visit to defend food and seed sovereignty[1]
- Details
- Published on Thursday, 17 October 2013 16:41
Over 100 small-scale farmers and rural woman came together in Lilongwe during the August SADC Heads of States Summit as a regional collective of the People's Dialogue, the Rural Woman's Assembly and Via Campesina Africa to come up with alternatives and practical solutions to end rural poverty and promote people-driven development in the Southern Africa Development Community region (SADC). One of the key demands was the adoption of Food Sovereignty by our governments as a policy in all SADC countries, which means the right of countries to control what, how and where they produce, and to control the policies and programmes under which they produce.
Our governments have given up much of our food sovereignty when they signed free trade agreements with the European Union (EU) and the WorldTrade Organisation (WTO), thereby opening up our counties markets and export for the benefit of corporations and exporting countries both in the North and South.

Job openings in March 2006
May 10, 2006
On the last business day of March 2006, there were 4.0 million job openings in the United States, and the job openings rate was 2.9 percent.
The job openings rate was unchanged over the month but has generally trended upward since September 2003.
In March, the job openings rates decreased in leisure and hospitality and in the Midwest. The industries with the highest seasonally adjusted job openings rates in March 2006 were professional and business services (3.8 percent), education and health services (3.7 percent), and leisure and hospitality (3.5 percent).
The job openings rate is the number of openings divided by employment plus job openings. A job opening requires that a specific position exists and there is work available for that position, work could start within 30 days regardless of whether a suitable candidate is found, and the employer is actively recruiting from outside the establishment to fill the position.
These data come from the Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey. The above data are seasonally adjusted. Data for March 2006 are preliminary and subject to revision. Find additional information in "Job Openings and Labor Turnover: March 2006" (PDF) (TXT), USDL 06-821.
