Advisory Board
Dr. Greame Shaw Dr. Shaw received his medical training at Creighton University of Medicine. He spent three years specializing in Internal Medicine at the St, Louis University Hospitals, and is board-certified in Internal Medicine. For the next eighteen years, he concentrated on both acute and chronic illnesses. Many years of hospital-based practice made him appreciate the benefits of Western medical technology, but also revealed the deficiencies Western medicine has in dealing with chronic illness. Nutrition is a basic treatment for many ills we see these days. Our environment, soil and foods have lost the nutrient value they once had. Reversing this 'malnutrition' can treat man~ disorders. Dr. Shaw has bee-n practicing nutritional and preventive medicine since 1994. He is a member of the American College for Advancement in Medicine, and has experience in chelation and herbal therapy. Dr. Shaw integrates Western and Eastern therapy. Neither of these schools of medicine is exclusive and they can be easily combined. Dr. Shaw is a medical advisor for Get Well Natural Herbal Company. The company offers custom-made herbal supplements for many hard-to-treat disorders, including drrhosis, liver disease, cardiovascular disease, blood disorders, glomerulonephrltis and chronic viral diseases. The natural supplements work particularly well for common ailments such as hayfever, asthma, digestive and autoimmune diseases. Dr. Shaw has done extensive research on cell membrane hyperexcitabiity and neurotransmitter dysfunction. With Dr. Ba Hoang, he has co-authored multiple research papers on the relationship between cell membrane abnormalities and chronic illnesses. Open-mindedness, acceptance, and time are rare among our doctors these days. Dr. Graeme Shaw makes sure he provides these precious commodities to all his patients. Dr. Deborah A. Metzger PhD, MD gynecologist and reproductive endocrinologist Dr. Metzger, Harmony Women's Health Medical Director, is a gynecologist and reproductive endocrinologist devoted to the treatment of women with challenging medical problems. After graduating from college (SUNY at Buffalo, 1973), she obtained a PhD in molecular endocrinology from Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas (1979). She graduated from the University of Texas Medical School at Houston (1982), completed her residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology (1986) and a fellowship in Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility (1988) at Duke University in North Carolina. After six years on the faculty of the University of Connecticut Health Center (where she was an associate professor) she went into private practice in Hartford, CT, specializing in chronic pelvic pain, endometriosis, infertility and advanced laparoscopic surgery. Dr. Metzger is recognized as one of the leading authorities in the integrative and holistic treatment of endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain. As a necessity, she is also an expert in chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia and Lyme disease since these problems often accompany pain issues. She has lectured extensively throughout the world, published widely in peer-reviewed journals and textbooks. Nova Lee, Founder Inventor, Patient Advocate Nova became interested in environmental concerns after joining Creating our future, a club at Los Altos High School. She earned a degree in Geography from UCSB and went on to work as a naturalist, community organizer, sustainable technology developer. Prior to launching Buda Star Nova was the merchandise manager for Kanu Hawaii. Durring her time at Kanu Hawaii she discovered an eager market for compact reusable products but found few if any compact items that worked well. This led her back to Los Altos to start Buda Star, Intelligent products to support your eco-hip lifestyle. In becoming a plastics manufacturer Nova learned the real truth behind plastic health hazards and has become an advocate and public educator on how to avoid plastic contamination in all aspects of ones daily life. In formulating Buda Stars products she discovered innovative materials formulations devoid of estrogenic activating chemicals and are now one of the few companies in the world using and promoting this new technology.

Hello there fellow SCamper Dudes and Dudettes!
So the best weekend of the year has come and gone. I can't believe it – it feels like it was a dream. I honestly am in disbelief of everything that has happened. I am SO happy that I decided to enter the Camp Counselor Contest, it was a last minute decision and I submitted the video on the last day at 8pm. From there we made the first 12, then we made the next round of 6. What many people don't know is that I decided to make a second video for the following round in which I was going to do "tricks" as I jumped out of a tree. Well in making that second video I landed wrong after I jumped and suffered a concussion, four days of the worst migrains I've ever had, a bruised knee, a bruised jaw, a deep cut in my neck that wouldn't stop bleeding for a day and a half and I chipped 3 teeth and lost half of one of my molars. Can anyone question whether I am dedicated to Summer Camp? The few weeks trying to win the contest was super stressful – I had everyone I possibly could spreading the word and voting…friends and family from as far as Argentina, Spain, Italy and Colombia. All the pain and hard work paid off though and we made top three and then finally won. It was amazing. The day they announced it, I had adrenaline constantly running through my blood and I couldn't sleep; after coming to Summer Camp for 6 years I was going to experience my favorite festival in a way I could have only dreamed about.
I had so many things planned, so much I wanted to cover and see but the weekend seriously flew by and my aspirations were much larger than what was physically possible. However, I was able to get some awesome videos, catch some great sets, meet some amazing people, do really nice interviews, capture sweet pictures, and dance and hoop my heart out. Summer Camp is so big – there is so much going on that it is impossible to do it justice; for those of you who haven't been – you will never know how amazing it is until you experience it for yourself.
I again want to thank the entire Summer Camp crew for creating the Camp Counselor Program. For die hard fans, it is the chance to live the festival through a completely unique understanding. As someone who goes year after year it was so special to get a glimpse of the world behind the stage. I will forever treasure these memories and will continue to attend Summer Camp every year, but now with a greater level of appreciation.
The highlights of the weekend are meeting moe. and announcing their first set, being side stage for moe., UM and Gigantic Underground Conspiracy, getting to see Wavy blow out his birthday candles, and getting a drum lesson from Vinnie. I tried to plan the best I could for the weekend, but there is just so much going on it's impossible to plan for it all – so for the next year's counselor I suggest you make a general schedule and stay organized. Being counselor is a great experience, but it is your duty to represent the festival and that is a huge undertaking – I knew that going into it and yet it was still even grander than I thought.
I am sad that Summer Camp 2012 is over; but I am already getting excited for Summer Camp 2013. From my first video entering the SC Counselor contest I claimed that Summer Camp is the best festival ever, and it is. The line up is amazing every year and the people who make it happen are all so awesome and nice. Thank you Summer Camp, thank you fellow SCampers, and anyone who is considering coming next year – it will be the best experience of your life.
Keep Striving for Peace, Love, and Unity Fellow SCampers,
Camp Counselor Maria
Hola fellow SCampers!!!
As we approach the weekend we have all been anxiously waiting for, I wanted to take a minute and give you guys a better idea of who I am and what I am going to bring to Summer Camp this year. First and foremost I want to introduce you to the people I am coming to SC with; two of the main people who you will see in my vblogs are dear, close friends of mine who actually introduced me to Summer Camp six years ago and have been there with me every year since, Derrick Lawless and Steve Bannister. Two super chill, awesome people who I met in college and am proud to say will be a part of my life for the rest of it. Come Summer Camp 2050 we will be there rockin' it out like ever before. There are other friends of mine who are coming, Matt Weiler, Brian Buss, Christina Fountain, and Jake Kuykendall, (if you meet anyone of them, buy them a drink!) most of them are also friends from college who share the love for good music and good times.
One of the reasons that Summer Camp is the ULTIMATE most AMAZING festival is the line up. Every year I think to myself "man there's no way this year's line up is going to be as killer as last year's" and every time I am proven wrong. I not only get to see the bands I already love and follow throughout the year; but there are always so many new bands that I fall in love with.
Some of this year the sets that I am looking forward to seeing for the first time are Gigantic Underground Conspiracy; an awesome compilation of artists from several bands who are sure to put on some jams you most certainly don't want to miss. Tedeschi Trucks Band, I have always wanted to check them out and for some reason or another have never gotten the chance, with that kind of talent I know it'll be an amazing show. Sun Stereo a sweet local Champaign-Urbana band with a distinct and fresh jazzy-rock feel, check them out in advance on facebook.
The bands that I have seen many a time before but cannot wait to check out are Lotus, went to their Halloween weekend show in Pittsburgh, PA this past year and it was out of this world good, if you haven't checked them out – seriously it's a show you don't want to miss. Eoto is probably one of the bands I enjoy seeing live the most – they NEVER disappoint and manage to keep every show super fresh. Lastly can we say Talking Heads cover band? This Must be the Band is definitely one of those I gotta check out, can I put a request in? Let's hear the Talking Heads song your band is named after =)
Alright so I have limited space and limited time and there are tons of bands I am dying to check out (like two bands not mentioned above who are among my all time favorite bands and who I get to see every year 3 days in a row ONLY at Summer Camp? that's right…moe. and Umphrey's), but I can't talk about them all. So to let you know more about myself, I grew up on the Beatles, it led the way to harder rock and then jazz, such as Zeppelin and Dave Brubeck, and from there evolved further to include jam and electronic rock. I appreciate all artistry and talent, but I have a soft heart for drummers as I like to pretend I know how to jam on my used Evans drum set. I love Summer Camp for various reasons, but one of the main ones is that it was the first music festival of my life. Music has always had such an influential role in the essence of my being and there is no other festival that I feel as in touch with the tunes I love as SC. This is not your impersonal mob fest, you come to Summer Camp once and you feel like part of an extremely, extremely, large family forever.
On that note, for you first timers let me tell you some of the things I make sure to pack. For all you ladies, TP is a MUST. As glorious an experience as port-a-potties are, most of them run out of toilet paper and the best thing to do is be prepared, bring some and put a few squares (can you spare a square?) in your pocket. Next bring some trash bags, it is a privilege to use Three Sisters Park and we need to be responsible, have plenty of trash bags not just for garbage, but you never know what the weather could bring and you'd be surprised how dry one of those can keep you. Glow sticks are essential, not only do they add to the beautiful sea of lights at night on the main stage but they provide a great atmosphere for campsite hangouts. With all the great shows playing all the time, you are destined to catch some day shows and when the sun is strong some sun screen is essential! I have seen way too many people painfully red from neglecting to get their rub down, so SPF 50 it is! Finally, make sure to bring your crazy. This is a once in a lifetime experience to let go of everything that ties you down and let your true inner-self soar, so bring a happy spirit and leave your worries at home!
As your Summer Camp counselor I want you all to seek me out, let me make this your best Summer Camp yet. I want encompass the sweetness that is Summer Camp, and the only way I can do that is with your help. You fans are what keep SC alive and I want to show how we bridge the gap between the fans and the bands. Summer Camp is so much more that just music. It is about you living life; lets celebrate it.
I am going to promote some special Summer Camp spirit; my fellow moe.rons and I will be awarding fellow scampers that show special spirit throughout the festival. For example we will award the sweetest campsite, the person with the wildest outfit, the dude/dudette with the most innovative accessory or the neatest jam shout, and many many more; so let us join together and make this year the best Summer Camp EVER woop woop!!
SCampers for life!
Summer Camp Counselor Maria

Paris Air Show flying exhibition
1 of 18 from Aviation world jets into Paris Air Show (photos)
Each day during the show--which is the largest air show in the world--the afternoon is filled with one flying demonstration after another, be it a bi-plane doing aerobatics, a giant Airbus A380 showing what it can do without the worries of upsetting passengers, or as in the case of this photograph, a fighter jet showing its chops. Each exhibitor is given six minutes to show their stuff. And then it's on to the next one.

The saga of Sookie Stackhouse (the tremulous but sturdy Anna Paquin) and her lovah Bill (slit-eyed Stephen Moyer) gets off to a great, fast start, picking up where last season left off.
In short, there's a helluva lot going on, and the assorted subplots feel more compelling this season, including the constant sense of menace surrounding both Eric and Maryann.
What is abundantly clear by this brutal, swift, and exquisitely yucky scene is True Blood is back, doing what it likes to do best, that is, dumping you into yet another crisis with precious little context or buildup.
Ball has brushed up on his Buffy reruns, opening up the show's universe to far more devilish creatures and ideas, and it seems the further he steps away from the vamps, the closer he gets to the beating heart of the human.
Indeed, the fleshed-out secondary characters have better material than do Sookie and her vampire Bill (Stephen Moyer), who labor under the burden of replaying for the umpteenth time the forbidden love between the living and the dead, the light and the dark.
A world that admits vampires probably can't afford to deny entry to shapeshifters and the other so-far unclassified supernatural types who've made their way to Bon Temps, but there's an awful lot going on in True Blood this season, and not all of it is equally interesting.
Without a grounding in vampire lore, many viewers won't get a lot of the nuances, including the humor, in True Blood. So as good as Paquin and company play it, this is another quality pay-cable show that does have a secret handshake.

Born in Tampico, Illinois, on February 6, 1911, Ronald Reagan initially chose a career in entertainment, appearing in more than 50 films. While in Hollywood, he served as president of the Screen Actor's Guild and met his future wife, Nancy (Davis) Reagan. He served two terms as governor of California. Originally a liberal Democrat, Reagan ran for the U.S. presidency as a conservative Republican and won two terms, beginning in 1980.
"Democracy is worth dying for because it is the most deeply honorable form of government ever devised by man."
"A people free to choose will always choose peace."
"Information is the oxygen of the modern age."
"There is no limit to what a man can do or where he can go if he doesn't mind who gets the credit."
"Government exists to protect us from each other. Where government has gone beyond its limits is in deciding to protect us from ourselves."
"It has been said that politics is the second oldest profession. I have learned that it bears a striking resemblance to the first."
"I have wondered at times what the Ten Commandments would have looked like if Moses had run them through the U.S. Congress."
"Government is not the solution to our problems; government is the problem."
"We in government should learn to look at our country with the eyes of the entrepreneur, seeing possibilities where others see only problems."
"In America, our origins matter less than our destination and that is what democracy is all about."
"Coercion, after all, merely captures man. Freedom captivates him."
"In a world wracked by hatred, economic crisis and political tension, America remains mankind's best hope."
"One of the worst mistakes anybody can make is to bet against America."
"We will always remember. We will always be proud. We will always be prepared, so we may always be free."
"[Ronald Reagan] sought to mend America's wounded spirit, to restore the strength of the free world and to free the slaves of communism."
"I became a citizen of the United States when [Ronald Reagan] was president, and he is the first president I voted for as an American citizen. He inspired me and made me even prouder to be a new American."
Childhood and Education
Ronald Wilson Reagan was born on February 6, 1911, in Tampico, Illinois, to John Edward "Jack" Reagan and Nellie Wilson Reagan. His father nicknamed him "Dutch," saying he resembled "a fat little Dutchman." During Reagen's early childhood, his family lived in a series of towns, finally settling in Dixon, Illinois, in 1920, where Jack Reagan opened a shoe store. In 1928, Ronald Reagan graduated from Dixon High School, where he was an athlete and student body president and performed in school plays. During summer vacations, he worked as a lifeguard in Dixon.
Enrolling at Eureka College in Illinois on an athletic scholarship, Reagan majored in economics and sociology. There, he played football, ran track, captained the swim team, served as student council president and acted in school productions. After graduating in 1932, he found work as a radio sports announcer in Iowa.
Hollywood Career and Marriages
In 1937, Reagan signed a seven-year contract with the Warner Brothers movie studio. Over the next three decades, he appeared in more than 50 films. Among his best-known roles was that of Notre Dame football star George Gipp in the 1940 biopic Knute Rockne, All American. Another notable role was in the 1942 film Kings Row, in which Reagan portrays an accident victim who wakes up to discover his legs have been amputated and cries out, "Where's the rest of me?"
In 1940, Reagan married actress Jane Wyman, with whom he had daughter Maureen and adopted a son, Michael. The couple divorced in 1948. During World War II, Reagan was disqualified from combat duty due to poor eyesight and spent his time in the Army making training films. He left the military ranked as a captain.
From 1947 to 1952, Reagan served as president of the Screen Actors Guild. During this time, he met actress Nancy Davis, who had sought his help after she was mistakenly listed as a possible communist sympathizer on the "Hollywood blacklist." Both were immediately attracted to each other, but Reagan was skeptical of marrying again due to his painful divorce from Jane Wyman. Over time, he recognized Nancy as his kindred spirit, and they were married in 1952. The pair had two children, Patricia and Ronald.
As Reagan's film career began to plateau, he landed a job as host of the weekly television drama series The General Electric Theater, in 1954. Part of his responsibility as host was to tour the United States as a public relations representative for General Electric. It was during this time that his political views shifted from liberal to conservative; he led pro-business discussions, speaking out against excessive government regulation and wasteful spending—central themes of his future political career.

New signs that alert Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (Metro) riders of prohibited items on its system will be installed at all Metrorail stations by the end of the month.
The new signs, which have begun to be installed this week, are customized for each station entrance and address prohibited activities in the Metrorail system: no smoking; no eating and drinking; no animals (except service animals); no audio or video devices (without earphones); no littering or spitting; and no carrying of dangerous or flammable items into the system.
The signs carry the internationally understood symbols of a red circle with a slash through the prohibited behavior.
The installation of these new signs is part of a continuing effort to remind Metrorail riders the rules of riding the system. This summer, Metro installed temporary prohibition signs inside portable sign cases near Metrorail station kiosks.

The Red Sox have been the victims of their fair share of bad deals of late. John Lackey, Mike Cameron, Bobby Jenks, quite possibly Carl Crawford--it's not a list anyone enjoys hearing or really needs to hear again, so let's leave it at that.
About 16 months ago, the Sox sent Casey Kelly, Anthony Rizzo, and Reymond Fuentes to the San Diego Padres for one Adrian Gonzalez. It was a high price to pay in prospects, but the Red Sox knew who they wanted (as did all of us), and they went out and got him. It was a decisive move for one of the few players who are unquestionably amongst the best at their position--a truly premium talent.
Of course, the fact of the matter with any such deal these days is that it usually buys you all of a year, and the rest will have to be purchased with cold, hard cash. Such was the case with Adrian Gonzalez, whose contract was up in 2012, requiring the Red Sox to drop a seven year, $154 million contract extension in order to keep him on board, locking him up all the way through the end of his age 36 season.
At the time, the extension was an almost unanimously popular move. In light of recent events, however, we can appreciate even more how excellent the Adrian Gonzalez contract is for the Red Sox.
Let's look at Adrian and his deal compared to some of the other first basemen signed to long-term deals:
Name | Age | Contract AAV (millions) | Signed Through | 2011 wOBA | 2011 fWAR |
Miguel Cabrera | 28 | $19.04 | 32 | 0.436 | 7.3 |
Prince Fielder | 27 | $23.78 | 36 | 0.408 | 5.5 |
Adrian Gonzalez | 29 | $22.00 | 36 | 0.406 | 6.6 |
Ryan Howard | 32 | $25.00 | 37 | 0.354 | 1.6 |
Albert Pujols | 32 | $24.00 | 41 | 0.385 | 5.1 |
Mark Teixeira | 31 | $22.50 | 36 | 0.361 | 4.2 |
Joey Votto | 28 | $22.50* | 40 | 0.403 | 6.9 |
*Not including previous 3-year, $38 million extension.
First, let's just get out of the way how awful Ryan Howard's contract is. Wow.
Now, moving on.
What you'll notice here is that Gonzo is among the top of the group in every single category. Aside from Cabrera, who was signed with two years of arbitration left, Gonzalez has the lowest average annual value to his contract. The Sox are paying for relatively few years after Gonzalez' prime compared to the monster deals just signed by Albert Pujols and Joey Votto, and said prime can be expected to last longer than Prince Fielder's.
Of course, this chart isn't entirely fair to everyone. Pujols, after all, could maybe be expected to beat out his 2011 WAR with some regularity (at least for a while) given his career average fWAR of around 8. And, yes, Gonzalez will have to prove in 2012 that he really every bit as good as he seemed in 2011 with another strong season.
That being said, however, so long as Gonzalez doesn't fall off in the same unexpected way Mark Teixeira did, his contract absolutely shines in comparison to the three signed in these past few months. With ridiculous numbers of years tacked on, teams are likely to be shelling out upwards of $50-100 million over the value of said players come the end of their contracts while the Sox would be unlikely to ever approach even the lower limit of that figure.
This is not to say that those contracts are bad. Votto and Pujols are more than just players in many ways--Votto is the identity of the Reds right now, while Pujols is just about the biggest exception the market can produce in terms of contract valuations.Still, when you put them up against Adrian's, it's hard not to see Boston's contract as a bargain in terms of both years and dollars.
And that's saying a lot at $154 million.


text: content Discovery of a gene that controls 3 different diseases NewsRx.com 05-10-13 By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Gene Therapy Weekly -- An international research consortium led by the Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona (UAB), the CIBERER and the University of Wurzburg (Germany) has discovered a gene that can cause three totally different diseases, depending on how it is altered (see also Rare Diseases). The researchers, using next-generation massive ultrasequencing techniques, have sequenced the over 20,000 genes of a Fanconi anaemia patient's genome. By adopting this strategy they have succeeded in identifying pathogenic mutations responsible for this disease in the ERCC4 gene, which had already been linked to two other rare diseases: xeroderma pigmentosum and a type of progeria. The latter are characterised by heightened sensitivity to sunlight, susceptibility to skin cancer and, in the case of progeria, premature aging. Fanconi anaemia, on the other hand, is characterised by progressive anaemia, congenital malformations and a high risk of developing leukaemia and mouth tumours. The ERCC4 gene can therefore be responsible for three different diseases. The researchers have shown that this gene is involved in two DNA repair mechanisms by which cells maintain the stability of the genome, in such a way that the balance between these two repair systems will determine which of the three diseases the patient will contract. "This is a rather exceptional case, since there are few precedents of a single gene being involved in two independent physiological mechanisms and causing three clinically different diseases", points out UAB professor Dr Jordi Surralles. These findings, published in the "American Journal of Human Genetics", as well as improving the diagnosis and genetic characterisation of rare diseases, will allow new therapeutic strategies to be applied, like gene therapy or the selection of healthy, compatible embryos to cure siblings through umbilical cord transplants. The findings add to our knowledge of the two DNA repair mechanisms, which are so important for maintaining the stability of our genes and preventing cancer in the general population. In fact, the researchers point to the importance of going on to study this gene's possible role in breast cancer and ovarian cancer.

Home › Forums › General Discussion › Personally i think Jay Rock is not a good fit for Strange.
This topic contains 102 replies, has 63 voices, and was last updated by Frow 2 years, 8 months ago.
i heard a couple of songs off his upcoming album..nd
i just think he's boring.
I agree! He's hella boring.
I think hes like a poor mans "the game" I like his shit
He's good, I don't understand why strange fans hate on him. He's got a 90′s gangsta rap feel. So his beats aren't fuckin hiffy as most the other strange artists. Isn't that what it's about, being diverse?
hopefully he gets better just by being around those guys. He's young so he'll find his way. He doesnt strike me a slow person. And what's really scary is that he's probobly gonna be the one that generates the most money for strange since he's technically more popular than everyone on the roster. Ask any random hip hop fan and they'll know who Jay Rock is before they know Tech N9ne.
I think he is a good artist…imo
i think its a perfect fit for strange he'll grow as an artist
One of the best artists on Strange is Jay Rock, hes got a lot of potential.
Jay rock goez hard
I also find him to be rather boring. I found a handful of tracks off of black friday to be decent, but he is average at best. I downloaded like 10 of his mixtapes and just don't really feel his shit. Some tracks are ok, but he has no style, no substance. He's my least favorite artist on strange. Ill withold judgement till his new album is out.
He isn't versatile like all the other artist. Stevie and lynch aren't really versatile but there lyrics and flow is on point. I love every artist on strange. But I like jay more as a collab artist. But still thinks he's a talented artist

Managing Awards
Internal Research Support
Internal research support is provided annually to each PI whose sponsored programs recover Facilities & Administrative costs. The allocation continues a policy started in 1985 that provides university funding to principal investigators calculated on the basis of facilities and administrative cost (F&A) recovery. |
Step by Step Instructions for PIs and Fund Managers
Principal Investigators and Fund Managers should follow these steps to certify their own and their employees' effort online. |
Step by Step Instructions for Self-Certification
Follow these steps to complete the effort reporting for yourself (self-certification). |
Program Income
OMB Circular A-110 defines program income as "gross income earned by the recipient that is directly generated by a supported activity or earned as a result of the award." |
Financial Management
Financial management of awards is a responsibility assumed by PI's/PD's and the University that is inherent in all projects. PI's/PD's and all who support the projects must adhere to the University's policies and procedures as well as any additional requirements stipulated by sponsors in managing personnel costs, allowable cost principles, cost policies, cost sharing, cost transfers, and audits. The University has established systems of internal control for the financial management of awards and these controls are subject to review by the USNH Internal Auditor. PI's/PD's are responsible for regular financial oversight including documenting approval of costs to awards and review of monthly budget to actual financial reports. Federal awards to the University are subjected to OMB Circular A-133 audit tests and occasionally to additional financial reviews by sponsors. |
Award Closeout
Closeout of a grant or cooperative agreement is usually a routine administrative activity at the end of the project. OMB Circular A-110 provides guidance for the closeout of a federal award. The University is expected to submit all final financial, programmatic, and other reports, such as technical, property and inventions, within 90 days after the end of the award period. Federal award closeout requirements are generally the same for all federal agencies however closeout procedures vary by award and the terms of the award should be considered during the closeout. |
Sponsor Guidelines and Conditions
UNH must adhere to particular terms and conditions for federal awards that are made to UNH. It is important to review the terms and conditions specified in the notice of award (NOA). If there are any questions regarding the terms and conditions, please contact your Grant and Contract Administration (GCA). |
Reporting requirements for federal awards are defined in OMB Circular A-110. A specific award may require further reporting, such as the positive or negative reporting of potentially patentable inventions or the requirement to report the acquisition of equipment under a particular award. A-110 provides the procedures for reporting financial and program performance and identifies the standard reporting forms for federal awards. Agreement terms and conditions for federal and nonfederal awards typically specify any additional financial and performance reporting requirements. In recent years some institutions have been warned for failure to submit timely financial reports. Additionally, some federal agencies have withheld future funding from institutions because technical, financial, or patent reports on a past award were not submitted on time. |
Effort Reporting and Certification
Effort reporting is the mechanism used to confirm that salaries and wages allocated and charged to projects funded by all external sponsors is reasonable in relation to the actual effort performed on the project. Federal regulations from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-21 (Cost Principles for Educational Institutions) require that institutions receiving federal awards maintain systems and procedures documenting the distribution of activity, and associated payroll costs, to each individual sponsored agreement. |
Subrecipient Agreements
A subrecipient agreement is an agreement made by the University to a third party for the performance of a substantive portion of the work of a sponsored project. In most cases, a subrecipient award will be for a particular phase or area of a sponsored project which has been identified in both the proposal and subsequent agreement of the prime grant or contract and where the University maintains overall scientific, administrative, and financial responsibility (as opposed to covering the use of professional or consulting services). |
Research Support Units
Sponsored Programs Administration (SPA) helps prepare and is the authorized UNH entity to submit proposals to external sponsors. SPA negotiates and accepts awards on behalf of UNH;...

TUOLUMNE CITY, Calif. — A raging wildfire in Yosemite National Park rained ash on the reservoir that is the chief source of San Francisco's famously pure drinking water, and utility officials Monday scrambled to send more water toward the metropolitan area before it becomes tainted.
Nearly 3,700 firefighters battled the approximately 230-square-mile blaze, the biggest wildfire on record in California's Sierra Nevada. They reported modest progress, saying the fire was 15 percent contained.
"We're not there yet, but we're starting to get a little bit of a handle on this thing," said Lee Bentley, fire spokesman for the U.S. Forest Service. "It's been a real tiger. He's been going around trying to bite its own tail, and it won't let go but we'll get there."
Utility officials monitored the clarity of the Hetch Hetchy Reservoir and used a massive new $4.6 billion gravity-operated pipeline system to move water quickly to reservoirs closer to the big city. The Hetch Hetchy supplies water to 2.6 million people in the San Francisco Bay area, 150 miles away.
"We're taking advantage that the water we're receiving is still of good quality," said Harlan Kelly Jr., general manager of the city's Public Utilities Commission. "We're bringing down as much water as possible and replenishing all of the local reservoirs."
At the same time, utility officials gave assurances that they have a six-month supply of water in reservoirs near the Bay area.
So far the ash that has been raining onto the Hetch Hetchy has not sunk as far as the intake valves, which are about halfway down the 300-foot O'Shaughnessy Dam. Utility officials said that the ash is non-toxic but that the city will begin filtering water for customers if problems are detected. That could cost more.
On Monday the fire was still several miles away from the steep granite canyon where the reservoir is nestled, but several spot fires were burning closer, and firefighters were protecting hydroelectric transmission lines and other utility facilities.
"Obviously we're paying close attention to the city's water supply," said Glen Stratton, an operations chief on the fire suppression team.
Power generation at the reservoir was shut down last week so firefighters would not be imperiled by live wires. San Francisco is buying replacement power from other sources to run city hall and other municipal buildings. It has been at least 17 years since fire ravaged the northernmost stretch of Yosemite that is under siege.

Emerging Africa describes the too-often-overlooked positive changes that have taken place in much of Africa since the mid-1990s. In 17 countries, five fundamental and sustained breakthroughs are making old assumptions increasingly untenable:
- The rise of democracy brought on by the end of the Cold War and apartheid
- Stronger economic management
- The end of the debt crisis and a more constructive relationship with the international community
- The introduction of new technologies, especially mobile phones and the Internet
- The emergence of a new generation of leaders.
With these significant changes, the countries of emerging Africa seem poised to lead the continent out of the conflict, stagnation, and dictatorships of the past. The countries discussed in the book are Botswana, Burkina Faso, Cape Verde, Ethiopia, Ghana, Lesotho, Mali Mauritius, Mozambique, Namibia, Rwanda, Sao Tom? and Principe, Seychelles, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zambia.

New to site and new to a Ford 545D. A few questions (re: block heater, manuals)
Hi all,
I'm new to the site and new to owning a tractor. I just bought a 1994 Ford 545D.
I'd like to add a block heater. Any advise (e.g. block heater vs. radiator hose heater / not interested in magnetic). I see screw-in block heaters advertised; can anyone direct me to a diagram or picture of where it installs? I don't see an obvious port (I've installed on Ford trucks).
I'd like to get a set of manuals (operators, service, parts). Know of a good source?
Thanks in advance and thanks for this site; it helped greatly while shopping for my tractor.

Re: New to site and new to a Ford 545D. A few questions (re: block heater, manuals)
Go talk to the parts guy at your nearby New Holland dealer. The block heaters are pretty generic, most made in Winnipeg. They just replace a frost/welch plug in the block and are better, in my opinion, than something in a radiator hose.

Re: New to site and new to a Ford 545D. A few questions (re: block heater, manuals)
The block heaters are a much better device as a winter starting aid then a radiator hose heater. They install in a core plug in the block and are available for most Fords. I have a timer set to to turn the block heater on two hours prior to feeding on our feeding tractor.

Block heaters replace a freeze plug like the guy have already said. You could measure the plug and get one at a autoparts store.
