(2013-14)King's College London Summer Institute
The Fulbright Commission King's College London Summer Institute is a three-week cultural and academic programme for US students held at King's College London in the UK.
The theme for the Institute is Learning, Inventing, and Reinventing: The British City, Past and Present.Participants in this programme will get the opportunity to:
• Experience an exciting academic programme at a top 20*ranked UK University in the vibrant cosmopolitan city of London *(QS World University Rankings 2013-14).
• participate in Fulbright Master Classes led by Fulbright academics and professionals
• take part in a range of cultural and social trips around the city of London
• Develop their learning skills, improving presentation, research and communication skills
• Meet people from all over the world, make friends and experience life as a real student in the UK
• Become an ambassador for studying in the United Kingdom, and for the prestigious internationally renowned King's College, London
• Learn to critically reflect on notions of struggle and tension and to understand the political value of leadership and creativity.
• Embark on a reflective video project to document the journey on the path to leadership and learning about the UK.
• Take excursions with British King's students to points of cultural, historical, and international significance.
The King's College London Summer School offers a diverse range of exciting courses over their summer sessions each year. Located in the very heart of London the courses have a strong academic focus and are taught by tutors from King's as well external tutors from other institutions to ensure high quality teaching across all disciplines. Using 'London as a classroom', students are exposed to a wealth of history and culture through museums, galleries and tours throughout London.
As well as a structured academic programme, the Summer School has a lively social element that allows students the option of undertaking trips and activities to popular UK destinations and London exhibitions and events. In the past this has included day trips to Windsor and Oxford, boat trips down the River Thames and taking in popular West End shows. These events aim to cater to a variety of student tastes and provides the opportunity for each student to make the most of what London has to offer.
If you wish to receive credit for your course(s) you will need to contact the office in your university that deals with external credit. We strongly advise you to do this before you apply.
It is up to your home institution to decide whether credit is awarded as credits are not printed on the King's Summer School transcripts. However King's College is happy to offer advice to institutions if necessary and provide them with the course outline. A three week Summer School module consists of 45 contact hours. As a general guideline, our Summer School courses involve learning time equivalent to courses worth 3-4 credits in the US system and 7.5 ECTS in the European system.The Institute will take place from 07 July-25 July 2014
The majority of the participant costs will be covered. This includes:
• round-trip airfare from the US to the UK;
• tuition and fees at King's;
• accommodation and social programme;
• subsistence, e.g. food and drinkParticipants are expected to pay for their own travel, health and accident insurance.
Participants are likely to be housed in the en-suite, self-catered Stamford Street Apartments a short walk across Waterloo Bridge from the university's Strand Campus in central London.
Special Programmes do not preclude participants from applying for a Fulbright Award later in their academic career. The summer institutes are intentionally designed in such a way that allows participants to come back to the UK at postgraduate or postdoctoral level as a Fulbright Student or Scholar.Selection Criteria

Baby Bjorn Toilet Seat Adaptor
" I had a chance to use this seat while on vacation. It is comfortable and my son had no issues transitioning from his usual potty to 'going' on this one. No complaints. There is a built in pee guard so no spraying to worry about. The handle makes it easy to take off and on as well as hang up when not in use. It is also easy to wipe clean and even give a quick was in the shower. " --tubbytelly
BABYBJÖRN Potty Chair, Blue
" This is a great potty - bought this for DD to use at home. We had the smaller all in 1 potties at the sitter's and in the car. This one worked well for home. Great non-skid base - helped DD to feel secure when sitting down herself. Nice high back...my DD likes to lounge and read books (Everyone Poops) while on the potty - so this gave good support. The rise in the front helps when DD lounging..." --kbvr
Ikea Potty Green
" We bought this potty for doing EC with our son when he was an infant and have used it ever since. It's quite cheap ($5), but it works! It worked really well when my son was little and we were still holding him for potties - nice large area to catch pees. However, once he was sitting on it himself (9 months or so) the opening just seemed too large. Even now, at 18 months, it seems..." --LunaLady
BABYBJÖRN Little Potty - White
" I bought this potty to keep in our van to use on the go. I love it's small size and how easy it is for my tiny toddler to sit on. The one piece design is nice as well and you don't have to take it apart to clean it if not all the potty makes it into the bowl. It is a little bit of a pain to dump out though, especially for poop. " --CrunchyChristianMama
Burt's Bees Baby Bee Diaper Ointment
"Love butts bees products. Liked that is natural, effective yet gentle on sensative skin. Not smelly. Used on bottoms and other small cuts. One pass and rosy is gone overnight" --amadorev

Leatherique Restoration Products Complaint - Poor Customer Service
Review by
Comments (1)
HIGH POINT, NORTH CAROLINA -- I ordered the above company's crack filler and standard color dye by phone from their customer service representative "Christy". She assured me that their standard color dye would be a good match for my leather seat in my 2008 Chevy HHR. When I received it the bottle of dye had tipped over and leaked out. I called their phone number and left a message for Christy to call me. I did not get a call from her, so after two days I called again and was able to reach her. I told her that the dye was not packed well and had tipped over and leaked out. I repeated this to her twice with no response or acknowledgment from her. It was like she did not care so I hung up.
When I used the dye, it was much too dark and could not be made to match by diluting it with some water as they recommend. I called Christy back and told her that the dye did not match and that I wanted to return it for a refund. She said that she would have George contact me. A week went by and I did not hear from him so I called Christy back. She suggested that I return the dye for their custom dye and they would charge me the difference. I told her that I did not want any more of their products. She said to return the dye that I purchased and they would credit my charge card when they received it. I shipped it back and they received it on 12:47 PM on October 23, 2008.
On October 30th., I called Cristy and asked when she was going to credit my charge card for the dye. She said that she had not received it. I told her that according to USPS it was received by them on Oct. 23rd. She said she would check on it. On Nov. 3rd., I called her again to ask when I would receive credit for it. She said that was not her department. I told her that I was tired of getting the run around and that I would not be calling again. I told her that if I did not receive an email from her by the end of the next day saying that the credit had been put through, she would not like what I would do. She said that it was not nice to threaten someone. I told her that I was not threating anyone.
LEATERIQUE HAS THE ROLLS ROYCE'S IN THE PRICING OF THEIR PRODUCTS WITH THE YUGO OF CUSTOMER SERVICE. I intend to post on different blogs until I receive credit for the returned dye.

Instead of posting on different blogs to get your money back you would do better to simply file a dispute for the charge with your credit card company.

In this post, I offer a meaning of Evangelical, but this must be read in conjunction with my post "What is a Christian?" I do not claim in this post to be outlining the boundary markers of Christianity. Evangelicalism is a part of the broader Christian movement. I also do not claim any special authority to lay out these principles which are not new to me. It is true that Evangelicalism can be hard to define. But this is I believe because it is more about attitudes than doctrinal … [Read more...]
What is a Christian?
I believe it is very important that we broaden our definition of Christian, but at the same time narrow our definition of Evangelical. Very often people confuse the two these days. The Evangelical movement has always been a movement within the wider Christian movement. Often it has been accused of believing that only other Evangelicals are really Christians. It is no wonder then, that some today do not like it when people suggest they are probably not an Evangelical. The latest in a long line of … [Read more...]
Why do modern liberals want to stay within the evangelical movement?
I was one of the interviewees for a piece entitled What is the Gospel Coalition? on Christian.co.uk. Here is the extract of what I said in response to the question "are some UK Evangelicals moving away from the gospel?", the whole article is worth a read: "Definitely yes," "There's always been liberalism. What's different about it now is it seems more reluctant to use the label. When I grew up in Christianity I spoke to people who would clearly say 'I'm a liberal'. Evangelicals were seen as … [Read more...]
What is the Gospel Coalition? Perspective from the new Christian.co.uk
A recently launched new Christian news site Christian.co.uk is making a bit of a splash on this side of the pond. They appear to be aiming to have a good broad coverage of diverse Christian groups. I was asked to comment on a brief article on the Gospel Coalition for them. Here is the part of the article based on my comments, the rest of the article is worth a read. Just for the avoidance of any doubt, I have indeed stated that I uphold the Gospel Coalition statement of faith, and became an … [Read more...]
God really does want to bless you!
I know, some of my readers will have read a headline like that and panicked. Has Warnie slipped into "Health wealth and prosperity" or "Word of Faith" ? Nope, not at all. But I do feel that it is so easy for us to throw out the baby with the bathwater. I remember at one point a few years ago I even began to wonder if we would be better off to stop talking about faith. Perhaps, I argued, we should simply talk about "trust" in God. Trust is a much more passive thing, and it is a component of … [Read more...]
How to move the immovable God
Christians in the West are often quite good at trusting in God as our rock. We are taught doctrine, told that God is sovereign. We are taught that he stands behind every event that happens and is working for our good (Romans 8:28). Even when other people do things to us from a bad motive, we may respond like Joseph and say "you meant that for my harm, but God meant it for good." God, we learn, is unmovable. He is like a fortress we can hide in. He is unshakeable and faithful. "Ascribe … [Read more...]
The loving wrath of God
Love is not some insipid woolly emotion offered to everyone in the same way irrespective of their response. Love is passionate. Infinite love is infinitely passionate. God's love has content. He truly cares about us, and more than that he truly cares about the honor of his name and the glory of the trinity. God's love is primarily turned towards himself as the most lovable being in the universe. For all eternity the Father loves and is satisfied in the Son, the Son loves and is satisfied in … [Read more...]
The Offence of the Cross or Why the day Jesus died is called Good Friday
It is astonishing that at the heart of the Christian message of good news lies a death. Of course this good news is only so because of the resurrection, as I argue in my book, but today lets remember the horror of the cross, and how that very shocking nature of the death of our Lord, compels us to pay attention: Mark Driscoll writes, The curious paradox of the atoning death of a bloody Jesus rising above the plane of human history with a mocking crown of thorns is that he is offensive in an … [Read more...]
The Apostle Paul's Blogging Checklist, Hell, and Rob Bell
Now that Rob Bell's controversial book Love Wins is on sale on both sides of the Atlantic and many other comments have been made, I am feeling like I cannot avoid engaging in the controversy, or at least should read some more material to understand it better. I did not seek out such involvement, as you can see from my post which ironically listed Five Reasons I hadn't previously blogged about Rob Bell. Since then I have posted a couple of highly relevant articles without directly addressing … [Read more...]
Is There a Second Chance for Salvation After Death? – Mark Driscoll on hell
In a recent sermon on Heaven and Hell based on the shocking parable of the Rich man and Lazarus found in Luke 16. Driscoll was at his pastoral and passionate best. His love for his hearers, and desire to warn them of important truth is very clearly seen in this talk. I think it is one of his best sermons. He speaks about the parable of the rich man and Lazarus, and how between heaven and hell, "a great chasm has been fixed, in order that those who would pass . . may not be able, and none may … [Read more...]

After Wrigley Field, where he's hit half (nine) of his 18 career homers, Minute Maid Park is Carlos Zambrano's favorite place to go deep. He's homered four times there in 12 career starts, including a two-run shot off his future teammate Wade Miller that tied this key game on July 25, 2003, a game the Cubs eventually won; and one on August 17, 2005, helping the Cubs to another win.
I'll settle for a well-pitched victory tonight, but you know Z will be aiming for the fences, too. He's got only five hits all told in 31 career AB in Houston -- four of them homers.
Speaking of which, here is tonight's lineup (via Twittermyer as always); in this lineup, Z should be hitting seventh:
Soriano, lf; Theriot, ss; Bradley, rf; Lee, 1b; Johnson, cf; Soto, c; Scales, 3b; Miles, 2b; Zambrano, p
Gordo also tweets that Fox will play every day -- somewhere -- at Iowa in order that he'll be ready to return to DH in the interleague games at AL parks beginning on June 23, and also, the Astros have switched starters for tomorrow's day game again. Instead of Mike Hampton, the Cubs will face Russ Ortiz.
Bruce Miles has some thoughts on Brett Jackson, the rest of the draft, and more on Jake Fox:
The Fox move makes sense for now. I speculated yesterday that the Cubs could do some roster shuffling in two weeks, when they play at Detroit and then come "home" to play the Sox at the Cell. At that point, they can, and probably should, bring Fox back and have him DH. The Cubs really didn't miss Miles. Bobby Scales and Andres Blanco filled in capably, and that two-year deal the Cubs gave Miles after he was non-tendered by the Cardinals isn't looking so hot.
A player sent down has to stay down for 10 days (barring injuries, which is what happened when Miles got hurt and Bobby Scales got a reprieve from an Iowa trip). The Cubs won't need a DH until June 23 at Detroit, so Fox could come back then.
And a-freakin-men on the Aaron Miles statement by Bruce Miles (no relation, right, Bruce?). That has to be one of the worst free agent signings -- ever.
I've posted a poll (which you can find either by clicking that link or on the right sidebar) where you can weigh in on the selection of Brett Jackson as the Cubs' #1 pick this year.
Today's Starting Pitchers | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Wandy Rodriguez is 4-4, 4.39 in 11 career starts vs. the Cubs, but he always seems to be the kind of guy who ties Cub hitters in knots. He got a no-decision on April 7 in a game the Cubs lost in extra innings. We all shake our heads at the demotion of Jake Fox, who might seem like the ideal guy to face the lefty Rodriguez -- but as a junkballer, he might tie Fox in knots. Jake will be back. In the meantime, Derrek Lee's the guy -- and he's hot right now -- who can pound Wandy; he's 12-for-24 (.500) lifetime against him with 3 doubles, 2 HR and 6 walks.
Z got the win on Opening Day in Houston this year, allowing only five hits in six innings on April 6. Apart from liking to hit in the Juice Box, he's 7-3, 3.42 lifetime there as a pitcher. He handles all the Astros pretty well except for Miguel Tejada (7-for-15, .467, a HR) and his lifelong nemesis, Carlos Lee (17-for-49, .347, 5 doubles, 4 HR). Stop those two, Z, and you'll win tonight.

Identity theft happens March is Fraud Prevention Month |
By Det. Curtis Chiborak
WINNIPEG – It's a quiet Friday night and you're sitting down to family dinner when the phone rings. The person on the line asks for you by name and tells you that they work for a collections agency, your Visa is four months overdue, and you owe $5200.00 in total. You are shocked and angry and then you realize that you don't have a Visa.
Identities are stolen every day and even the most diligent and cautious person can become the victim of identity theft. There are numerous resources for people to educate themselves on how to prevent becoming a victim but once your identity has been stolen the onus is put on the individual to notify the appropriate organizations and conduct their own follow up in order to re-establish their credit profile. The rebuilding process often begins with the question of, "What do I do now?"

ECO 120: Global Macroeconomics
Course Objective and
The main objective of this course
is to introduce students to the principles of macroeconomics
from a global perspective and to encourage them to apply this
knowledge in the critical evaluation of economic issues and
policies. To achieve this end, we will examine various
macroeconomic concepts such as gross domestic product (GDP),
inflation, unemployment, fiscal and monetary policy, and
economic growth. We will also develop models that can be
used to analyze the impact of economic events and policies on
various macroeconomic variables.
Broad Learning Goals:
The goals of this course are for every
student to
- Apply the model of the production possibilities curve to
illustrate the concepts of scarcity, choice, opportunity
cost, and economic growth.
- Use the supply and demand model to predict price and
quantity outcomes for markets, including markets for
- Define macroeconomic measures, including gross domestic
product, inflation, and unemployment, explain how each is
measured, and evaluate the limitations of the measurements.
Compare and explain differences in the levels of each
measure between countries.
- Use the model of aggregate demand and supply to evaluate
the short and long run impact of fiscal and monetary policy
on GDP, employment, and the price level.
- Describe factors that may influence economic growth and use these to explain international differences in growth and development.
Weekly Update:
Information for ECO 120 can now be found in D2L.

Using technology found in cell phones, inexpensive sensors being tested at Monte Sano State Park might one day soon save lives by giving advance warning of deadly landslides in at-risk areas around the world.
The wireless test sensors are installed around an active landslide zone in the park. A team from the Atmospheric Science Department at UAH is studying the sensors to see whether they can provide useful information about soil stability and the likelihood of an impending landslide.
Recent research estimated that more than 4,500 people are killed and thousands of others are injured in landslides around the world every year.
Disease prevention is goal for UAH math chair's mosquito-control models

- Hits: 535
Genetics may provide humankind its most comprehensive answers in controlling the age-old scourges of malaria, dengue fever and West Nile virus by eliminating the ability of vector mosquitos to host the diseases.
But the new genetic solutions that involve introducing engineered malaria-resistant mosquitos or mosquitos replete with engineered resistant gut bacteria raise questions of their own. How large of a population with the genetic trait will be needed to be viable? Will the population survive, persist and mate with wild mosquitos? Is it possible to completely overtake the susceptible wild population with resistant mosquitos? Among the large number of biological factors involved in such a process, what are the most sensitive and important ones to make the genetic solutions work? As far as the release of genetically altered mosquitos into the field is concerned, what are the better strategies for that biologically as well as economically?

While we're at it why not a referendum on reaming the rich, amnesty for illegals and people control (gun registration) by another name?
The polls say pretty much what some have decided they should say. How about a real poll it's called a referendum????
I think old Warren must have just seen a sneak preview of the grim reaper in a dream, then suddenly remembered the bibles parable of the camel trying to get through the eye of the needle! Too late Warren old boy, your die has long been cast.
I'm voting Romney/Ryan (holding my nose) 'cause voting for four more years of this Prez would require a name change for the country. USSA. I can't imagine why it would even be a close election. Would R/R make things better? Marginally perhaps, but better is still better. Reasons? Try: Fast and Furious, 16 trillion debt, 47 million on food stamps, Amtrac subsidised, SS in trouble, Medicare gutted to buy Obamacare, USPS broke, Lybia debacle, unabated "invasion" from Mexico, And Friends of the 'Bamster (by whom Ye shall be known) Ailes, Wright, Soros, Maher, Letterman, and Chavez to name a few. Well thanks, but no thanks !
Absolutely right! That's why I voted for Newt in the primary. Can't you just imagine mumbles BO going into left wing convultions trying to debate the Newtster?
As a "so called" Teabagger I see the media as the sales arm of the Progressive point of view because they rigeriously avoid, as Paul Harvey used to say, the rest of the story! So who can blame Democrats or Republicans for making poor decisions based on poor information? Yep, big government is your savior (the bigger the better), like what's easier to "sell" than FREE Stuff? That ends up costing your FreeDumb. (misspelling intended)
Your existense is a very good arguement for abortion on demand!!!
Wet dream much?
He's like keeping a pet rattlesnake. Come just a little bit closer my friends Heh, Heh Heh.
Maybe some things could and should be de-criminalized but other ideas should be revisited first. Like: Why do folks imprisoned at Sheriff Arpaios facilities rarely repeat their mistakes in his juristiction ? Why were there so many fewer people ready to commit crimes when there were chain gangs rather than libraries, good nutrition, gyms, free medical care etc. Also why convictions followed by 20 appeals over 10 years. Expensive???

Mionix Avior 8200 Review: An Ambidextrous Gaming Mouse
I'm left-handed. Yet when it comes to computers, like most other lefties I know, I use a mouse with my right hand. It's just how I was taught. So I've never seen the need for a mouse that tries to accommodate both normal humans and sinister mutants.
But this category of the market exists because people want that flexibility anyway, so if you really must sit on the fence, the Avior 8200 is a good way to do it. Made by Mionix, the Avior is a fantastic gaming mouse that's also subtle in design. There are no enormous logos or flashy color schemes, build quality is superb with a nice feel to every button, and the soft matte finish to the exterior is extremely comfortable.

This letter is in response to Mr. Randy Blanton's letter "When we remove God, we remove his blessings."
As a student of American history, I know for a fact that the people of the United States did not "welcome God into the schools," as he writes. A cursory reading of texts from Thomas Jefferson to George Washington to Benjamin Franklin would show our founders understood the importance of a vibrant secular society unhindered by an oppressive Church.
In a letter written in 1814 to Horatio Spafford, Jefferson wrote, "In every country and every age, the priest has been hostile to liberty. He is always in alliance with the despot."
However, it is Mr. Blanton's next point that strikes me as particularly odd.
He directly compares his god to a spoiled child. Really, go read it again. He writes that "by convincing a few naïve judges to force the rest of us to remove God the father from the school system: God removes his blessings from the school system. It's like when a child with the game ball gets rejected by the other children and leaves the games and takes his ball with him."
As an atheist, I know in my heart and soul and brain there is no god.
I'm struck though, that Blanton would choose to worship a god that is so petulant, so child-like, and so despicable. He makes his God sound weak and pathetic. Are atheists and naive judges in this country really more powerful than Mr. Blanton's God? Why does he have to act in a way I would not accept from my 5-year-old nephew?
While not addressing any specific issue facing schools, Blanton writes that only God, not all of the money in the world, would fix the problems he fails to address.
Mr. Blanton can try to pray away the problems he sees in public education. I however would rather live in a world where we accept that great teachers, outstanding facilities, access to technology and a diverse classroom are keys to educational success.
I'm sorry Mr. Blanton, but those things do cost money.

Everyone that's arguing about whether or not secondhand smoke is harmful has completely missed the point Williams was trying to make. How is passing a law that nobody can smoke in your restaurant different from passing a law that nobody can smoke in your house? They're both private property that you own, and nobody but you has any inherent right to be in either. What if New York City passed a law that you were no longer allowed to use trans fats when cooking for yourself?
The point is, if we accept that these are the sorts of laws we want our government to create, there's no logical end to the things that we might be forbidden from doing, simply because a government bureaucrat dislikes it or thinks it's bad for you.
