Actress Melissa Leo was born on September 14, 1960, in New York City. Leo starred as the mother of boxer Mickey Ward in the 2010 film The Fighter, also starring Mark Wahlberg. The role garnered her both Golden Globe (best supporting actress) and Oscar awards. Other accolades include award nominations for the film Frozen River and the HBO series Mildred Pierce.
"I'm very happy with where I am. I think it's what Joseph Campbell meant by 'follow your bliss.' I can walk past almost everybody in an airport or a supermarket unnoticed and I'm fine with that. Acting is a lowly job. I never set out to be a celebrity."
Early Life
Melissa Leo was born in New York City on September 14, 1960. Leo was raised by father Arnold Leo, an editor and fisherman, and mother Peggy Leo, a teacher. After her parents divorced, she moved to Vermont and then London with her mother.
Leo learned to love theater while in London and returned to the United States at age 18 to study at the State University of New York at Purchase. After two years there, Leo dropped out to pursue acting. Not long after, she landed a recurring role on the soap opera All My Children, which led to a Daytime Emmy nomination in 1985. Leo next appeared in a series of TV movies and indie films through the late 1980s and early '90s.
Career Success
Leo's breakthrough role came in 1993, when she began playing Detective Sergeant Kay Howard on the NBC series Homicide: Life on the Street. After five seasons, she was written out of the show. Over the next few years, Leo found it challenging to break out of the type-casted role based on her previous character.
Leo rose back to prominence with an impressive performance as a wife of an addict in the 2003 film 21 Grams. Her role garnered an award nomination for best supporting actress from the L.A. Film Critics Association. Many film opportunities followed, including The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada (2005) with Tommy Lee Jones, Hollywood Dreams (2006) and Black Irish (2007).
Leo went on to win acclaim for her performance as a struggling mother in the heralded film Frozen River (2008), most notably Independent Spirit Award, Screen Actors Guild and Academy Award nominations—all in the best actress category. That same year, Leo received praise for her role as a mother of a kidnapped, drug-addicted son in the film Lullaby.
More films followed, including Everybody's Fine (2009) with Robert DeNiro, Conviction (2010) with Hilary Swank and The Fighter (2010) with Mark Wahlberg. In the latter film, she played Alice Ward, the mother of boxer Mickey Ward (played by Wahlberg); she garnered wide acclaim for her peformance, including a Golden Globe and an Academy Award, both in the best supporting actress category.
Moving back to TV in 2011, Leo showcased her talent in the HBO series Mildred Pierce, starring alongside Kate Winslet; she earned an Emmy nomination (outstanding supporting actress in a miniseries or movie) for her role as Lucy Gessler in the series.
Leo went on to work on several projects, including the 2013 film The Butler, also featuring Forest Whitaker, Terrence Howard, Jane Fonda and Oprah Winfrey. That same year, she won an Emmy Award for her guest appearance on the sitcom Louie.

Hart's Hope
A dark and powerful fantasy from the bestselling author of Ender's Shadow.
Enter the city of Hart's Hope, ruled by gods both powerful and indifferent, riddled with sorcery and revenge. The city was captured by a rebellious lord, Palicrovol, who overthrew the cruel king, Nasilee, hated by his people.
Palicrovol, too, was cruel, as befitted a king. He took the true mantle of kinghood by forcing Asineth, now Queen by her father's death, to marry him, raping her to consummate the marriage. [But he was not cruel enough to rule.] He let her live after her humiliation; live to bear a daughter; live to return from exile and retake the throne of Hart's Hope.
But she, in turn, sent Palicrovol into exile to breed a son who would, in the name of the God, take back the kingdom from its cruel Queen.

Excerpt from Hart's Hope by Orson Scott Card
Palicrovol Becomes a King in his Heart
This is the story of how God taught an unambitious man to seek a throne.
The dream of Zymas
Zymas was the King's right arm, the King's right eye, and--so the irreverent said--the King's right cobble, too. Zymas was born to a stablehand, but first his strength, then his skill, and at last his wisdom brought him such fame that now he was general of all the King's armies, and the terror of Zymas spread throughout all of Burland.
Zymas had only five hundred soldiers, both horse and foot, but this was a day when a village had five families and a town had fifty, so that five hundred soldiers were quite enough to subdue whoever needed subduing. And if some group of barons or counts combined their petty forces so that they outnumbered Zymas, they were still foredoomed. If there were ten such barons, they could be sure that one had joined the rebellion as the King's agent, two had joined as Zymas's men, and the rest would hang before the month was out.
Zymas had known days of glory on the frontier, where wild tribes from the inner mountains destroyed themselves against the pikes of Zymas's army. And there were days of glory on the littoral, when the raiders from the east beached their craft and died by the hundreds before they could get beyond the tideline. Oh, Zymas was a mighty warrior! But now, with the King's outward enemies all broken and paying tribute, Zymas led his men from mountain to coastline, not to defend Burland from attack, but to protect the tax collectors, to punish the disobedient, to terrorize the weak and defenseless.
There were those who said that Zymas had no heart, that he killed for pleasure. There were those who said that Zymas had no mind of his own, that he never so much as questioned any order that the King gave him. But those who said such things were wrong.
Zymas camped for the night with his half a thousand men on the banks of Burring, high on the river, where the locals still called the stream Banning. The village was too small to have a name--four families, recorded in the books as "seventh village near Banningside." It was recorded that this village had not paid their assessment of thirty bushels. This was causing resentment and was a bad example to the other villages. Zymas was here to punish them. Tomorrow he would come with fifty footsoldiers, surround the village, and then call for their surrender. If they surrendered, they would be hanged. If they did not surrender, they would be spitted and hung over fires or seated on sharpened stakes or some such thing, the normal these days, men and women and children, the normal. Zymas contemplated tomorrow and felt his heart drain away as it always did, so that he would not be ashamed.
When at last his heart was empty, he lay on the cold ground and slept. But tonight his still rest was broken by a dream. It surprised him to be dreaming, surprised him even within the dream, for dreaming was something he had given up long ago. It was a most holy dream, for in it he saw an ancient stag walking painfully through a wood. What was the pain? A rat hung by its teeth from the hart's belly, and at every step the stag shuddered with the pain. Zymas reached out his hand to take the rat, but a voice stopped him.
"If you take away the rat, what will close the great wound in the hart's belly?"
Zymas looked closer, and now he saw that the rat's teeth were holding together the lips of a long and vicious wound that threatened to split the stag from breast to groin. Yet he knew the rat was poisoning the wound.
Then a fierce eagle stooped, and landed brutally on the hart's back. Zymas saw at once what he must do. He took the eagle in his hands, turned it upside down, and thrust its feet under the hart. The talons reached and seized, spanning the wound, binding the edges together far more firmly than the rat's teeth. Then, still upside down, the eagle devoured the rat, every bit. The stag was saved because Zymas had set the eagle in its place.
"Palicrovol," said the voice, and Zymas knew it meant the eagle.
"Nasilee," said the eagle, and Zymas knew it meant the rat.
Nasilee was the name of the King. Palicrovol was the name of the Count of Traffing. Zymas awoke then, and lay awake the rest of the night.
Before dawn he took his fifty men and went to the village, and in moments the people had surrendered. The patriarch of the little village tried to explain why the taxes had gone unpaid, but Zymas had heard the excuses a thousand times. He did not hear the old man. He did not hear the moans of the women, the crying of the children. He only saw that each one stood before him with the face of a great old stag, and he knew that his dream had not come to him by chance.
"Men," he said, and all heard his voice, though he did not shout.
"Zymas," they answered. They called him by his unadorned name because he had made it nobler than any title they might have given him.
"Nasilee gnaws at the belly of Burland like a rat, and we, we are his teeth."
Puzzled, they did not know how to respond.
"Does the true King hang these helpless ones?"
Unsure what kind of test Zymas was posing, one of the men said, "Yes?"
"Perhaps he does," Zymas said, "but if he is the true King, then I will follow a false King who is good, and I will make him true, and the people will no longer have to fear the coming of the army of Zymas."
It seemed impossible to the soldiers that Zymas could speak such treason, but not so impossible as the idea of Zymas telling a lie or making a jest. So Zymas was going to rebel against the King. Was there any man there who would choose the King over Zymas?
Zymas let them choose freely, but all five hundred marched with him away from the bewildered villagers, toward Traffing. He did not tell them whom he meant to put in the King's place. The dream had said Palicrovol, but Zymas meant to see the man for himself before he helped him to revolt. Dreams come when your eyes are closed, but Zymas only acted with his eyes open.
The Guard and the Godsman
In the land of Traffing, in the dead of winter, a figure in a white robe walked like a ghost upon the snow. The guard at the fortress of the Count trembled in fear until he saw it was a man, with his face reddened by the cold, and his hands thrust deep into a bedroll for warmth. Ghosts have nothing to fear from the cold, the guard knew, and so he hailed the man--hailed rudely, because the guard had been afraid.
"What do you want! It's near dark, and we do no work on the Feast of Hinds."
"I come from God," said the man. "I have a message for the Count."
The guard grew angry. He had heard all about God, whose priests were so arrogant they denied even the Sweet Sisters, even the Hart, though the people had known their power far longer than this new-fashioned deity. "Would you have him blaspheme against the Hart's own lady?"
"Old things are done away," said the Godsman.
"You're done away if you don't go away!" cried the guard.
The Godsman only smiled. "Of course you do not know me," he said. And then, suddenly, before the guard's very eyes, the Godsman reached out his hands beseechingly and the bar of the gate broke in two and the gate fell open before him.
"You won't hurt him?" asked the guard.
"Don't cower so," said the Godsman. "I come for the good of all Burland."
From the King, then? The guard hated the King enough to spit in the snow, despite his fear of this man who broke gates without touching them. "The good of Burland is never the good of Traffing."
"Tonight it is," said the Godsman.
Suddenly the sunset erupted, hot streams down the slope of the sky, and the guard became a Godsman himself from that moment.
The Prophecy
"Were you invited?" asked Palicrovol.
The Godsman looked about him at the nearly naked men sitting on ice-covered rocks around a fire. "I am invited to the feasts of all the gods." Palicrovol was young and beautiful, even with the treebark mantle on his shoulders; the Godsman loved the sight of him, even though the Count was angry. Anger would pass. The Count's beauty would not.
"My guard is impressed with you," the Count said.
"Such men are easily impressed," said the Godsman.
"I've seen magic before," said the Count, for beside him sat Sleeve, the pink-eyed wizard who served only the master that he chose.
"Then I will give you what no other can: I will give you truth."
Palicrovol smiled and looked at Sleeve, but Sleeve was not smiling, and Palicrovol began to wonder if he ought to take this Godsman seriously. "What sort of truth?"
"Words can only tell two kinds of truth. Words can name you, and words can say what you will do before you do it."
"And which will you do?"
"To name a man is to say what he will do before he does it. So I will name you, Palicrovol. You are King of Burland."
Suddenly Count Palicrovol grew afraid. "I am Count of Traffing."
"The people hate King Nasilee. They have given him their life's blood, and he has given them only poverty and terror. They long for someone to set them free from this burden."
"Then go to a man with armies." If Nasilee heard that Palicrovol had even listened to this Godsman, it would be the end of the house of Traffing.
"General Zymas will come to you and follow you to the day he dies."
"Which will be very soon, if he dares to rebel against the King."
"On the contrary," said the Godsman. "Three hundred years from now you and Zymas and Sleeve will all be alive, with a man's life yet ahead of you."
Sleeve laughed. "Since when does your magic-hating god give gifts to a poor wizard?"
"For every day that you're glad of the gift, there will be five days when you hate it."
Palicrovol leaned forward. "I should have you killed."
"What would be the point? I'm only a poor old man, and when God lets go of my body, I will know even less than you do."
Sleeve shook his head. "There is no poetry in this man's prophecy."
"True," said Palicrovol. "But there's a tale in it."
"This is not a prophecy," said the Godsman. "This is your name. Zymas will come to you, and in the name of God you will conquer. You will enter the city of Hart's Hope and the King's daughter will ride the hart for you. You will build a new temple of God and you will name the city Inwit, and no other god will be worshipped there. And this above all: You will not be safe upon the throne until King Nasilee and his daughter Asineth are dead."
These words spoken, the Godsman shuddered, his jaw went slack, and the light departed from his eyes. He began to look about him in tired surprise. This had no doubt happened to him before, but plainly he was not yet used to finding himself in strange places--particularly in the midst of a very serious Feast of Hinds.
"What bright servants this god chooses for himself," said Sleeve.
Palicrovol did not laugh. The fire that had left the old man's eyes had left a spark in Palicrovol. "Here before you all," he said, "I will tell you what I have not dared to say before. I hate King Nasilee and all his acts, and for the sake of all Burland I long to see him driven from the throne."
At these treasonous words, especially spoken at the Feast of Hinds, his own men grew still and watched him warily.
"It is good that we love you," said Sleeve. "We will all keep silence and tell no one that you spoke against King Nasilee. And we will pray to the Hart that you will not be seduced by the flattery of a strange and jealous god."
Sleeve's words counseled against rebellion, but Palicrovol had learned that Sleeve's words rarely gave Sleeve's meaning. Sleeve might mean that it was already too late for Palicrovol to change his mind, for now he would live in constant fear of betrayal by someone who had heard his words. And as to the Godsman's prophecy of victory, was Sleeve doubting? Or testing? Palicrovol looked at the unnaturally white face of the wizard, his transparent skin, his hair as fine and pale as spiderweb. How can I read your strange face? Palicrovol wondered. Even as he wondered, he knew that Sleeve did not mean his face to be read. Sleeve probed others, but was not himself probed; Sleeve comprehended, but remained incomprehensible. "You came to me for no reason I could understand," said Palicrovol. "Until now. You came to me because of now."
Sleeve pursed his lips contemptuously. "I follow the entrails of animals. I use the power of their blood and in return they teach me where to go. Whatever plans God has for you, they're no concern of mine." But his denial was a confirmation, for never had Sleeve bothered to explain himself before.
A trumpet sounded outside the palisade. Count Palicrovol leapt to his feet. The treebark mantle slipped from his shoulders as he stood. "The King," whispered some of the men, for such was the terror of King Nasilee's Eyes and Ears that they thought he had already heard of this treason and come to punish Palicrovol. They felt no easier when they saw an army of five hundred men gathered outside the fortress.
"Who are you, who bring an army to my gate!" cried Palicrovol from the battlement.
"I am Zymas, once general of the King's army. And who are you, who stand naked at the battlement!"
Palicrovol felt the winter cold for the first time in the Feast of Hinds: the prophecy was already being fulfilled. In that moment he made his decision. "I am Palicrovol, King of Burland!"
But the army did not raise a cheer, and Palicrovol felt the giddiness of despair: he had spoken treason in front of the King's right hand, all because he had believed the mad prophet of a foolish God.
"Palicrovol!" called Zymas.
"Can these gates keep you out if you want to come in?" asked Palicrovol.
Zymas answered, "Can these soldiers keep you in if you want to come out?"
"If these soldiers are my enemies, then I will not come out. I will stay here and make them pay in blood for every step they take inside my walls."
"And if we are your friends?"
"Why did you come to me?" cried Palicrovol from the battlement. "Why do you taunt me?"
"I dreamed of you, Count Traffing. Why did I dream of you?"
Palicrovol turned to Sleeve, who smiled. "It is the Feast of Hinds," said Sleeve.
"It is the Feast of Hinds!" called Palicrovol.
"The tripes were heavy, and the womb was all but five days full," said Sleeve.
"The tripes were heavy, and the womb was all but five days full!" called Palicrovol. As he echoed Sleeve's words, Palicrovol was relieved. When the hind that gave herself at the Feast of Hinds was utterly full, the enterprise of the master of the feast could not go wrong. Someone's enterprise, anyway, and it was usually polite to read all good omens for the host.
"I know nothing of augury," said Zymas. "Who is the wizard who is teaching you what to say?"
Sleeve spoke for himself then. "I am Sleeve," he said. "The Sweet Sisters showed me a heavy hind. God spoke to Palicrovol through an old fool. And the Hart has come to you in a dream. If all the great gods are with Palicrovol, what will withstand him?"
Zymas had not said there was a hart in his dream. "What need has he of me?"
"What need have you of him? It is enough that you are both committed to treason now. If you work together, you can bring down this King. If you oppose each other, Nasilee will find his work much easier."
Zymas thought of still another argument. Sleeve, the greatest of the living wizards, is with this Count Traffing. "Palicrovol, if you would be King, I will help you wed the King's daughter and have the throne. Will you be a just and good king?"
"I will be the same sort of king as I have been Count," said Palicrovol. "My people prosper more than the people of any other lord. I am a just judge, as far as any man can be."
"If that is true, I will follow you, and my men will follow you," said Zymas.
So the Godsman's prophecy was perfect, though it had predicted an event as unlikely as Burring flowing backward. Zymas had come to him, and come even before Palicrovol himself had taken one single act toward rebellion. God was now his god. "And I," cried Palicrovol, "I will follow God."
And I, whispered white-skinned Sleeve, pink-eyed Sleeve, I could shake the earth and unmake this fortress, and with my left hand I could cause a forest to rise in the place of Zymas's five hundred men. Why should I link myself to these unmagicked men, particularly if they fear that ridiculous god named God? They have no need of me, nor I of them. But Sleeve felt the hind's blood hardening on his arms and hands, and he was content that Palicrovol should be king, even if he did it in the name of this angry young God.
And that is how Palicrovol began his quest for the throne of Burland.

Scotland Yard says an 18-year-old and a 32-year-old arrested at separate addresses in east London last week have been freed "with no further action."
Police didn't identify the men, but a friend named them as Jamal ud-Din and "Zakariya" respectively and said they'd been canoeing on the River Lee, a branch of which runs through the Olympic site in east London. The friend, Minzanur Rahman, had told The Associated Press that the trip was innocent, "just people trying to get into the Olympic spirit."
Intelligence officials say there has been an expected increase in chatter among extremist groups but there are still no specific or credible threats targeting the Olympics.

Conemaugh Township supervisors approved a $33,650 grant for Whitewater Park enhancements from the Community Foundation for the Alleghenies. This grant money will be used for various design repairs to Whitewater Park in Tire Hill.
The total cost of the project is an estimated $274,000. The Stonycreek Quemahoning Initiative is responsible for facilitating these enhancements.
Mike Quinn, initiative facilitator, said the project will cost the township nothing.
Quinn said $150,000 will come from the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources and the Community Foundation of Western Pennsylvania and Eastern Ohio will match that amount. The remainder of the money will be used to install public restrooms.
"The enhancements to the park include moving 3,000 cubic feet of cobble, or stones, to allow the manmade whitewater drops in the creek to function at maximum capacity. We're also going to add public restrooms," Quinn said.
Township Supervisor Steven Buncich said this park is used by various groups from around Somerset County.
"This park worked out much better than we thought," Buncich said. He said the park is used all summer by the community.
"There are community groups that have put together projects for the park. The Eagle Scouts put in a changing room and a memorial," Buncich said. A playground was donated to the park as well.
He said the only cost for the township is maintenance for the park.
Benjamin Faas, office manager at The EADS Group, said these enhancements will improve the design of the creek by making the whitewater drops more effective. The EADS Group is an engineering firm from Somerset.
"It was made for low-water flow. At the deepest point, it is about 10 feet. The waves are tame and I've seen kids playing on boogie boards," Faas said. He said the creek will still be safe for swimming.
Gov. Tom Corbett visited the park during a kayak tour to promote the state's recreational areas in July.
Corbett said he is proud of the effort the community has put into the restoration of Stonycreek River, which was named the 2012 River of the Year by the state Department of Conservation and Natural Resources.

Virginia is on the eastern coast of the United States, bordered by North Carolina, West Virginia, Kentucky and Maryland. It has over 7.6 million residents. The state capital is Richmond, and Virginia Beach is the most densely populated area, due to its proximity to the military bases in the area. Virginia's main export is computer chips, and the industry is based on the workforce graduating from the area's top public schools and universities. Virginia is a very scenic state. It is bordered by Chesapeake Bay on the east, and the Blue Ridge Mountains to the west, and both are areas of outstanding natural beauty. Its highest point is Mount Rogers at 5729 feet (1747m). 65% of the state is covered in forests, which make a beautiful show of color in the fall. There are many wild animals and birds including cardinals, owls and hawks. The Chesapeake Bay is known for its blue crabs, clams, oysters and striped bass and had a thriving seafood industry in the past.
The historic triangle of Jamestown, Yorktown and Colonial Williamsburg has a wonderful historical heritage and draws many visitors each year to the restored towns and historic landmarks. There are many hotels for all budgets, which can be booked here at EasyToBook.com, so your stay will be easy, whether you need a discount hotel or a luxury room. The state of Virginia has a humid subtropical climate to the east of the Blue Ridge mountain with lows of 26F (-3C) and summer highs of 86F (30C). The coastal areas occasionally suffer from hurricanes, and thunderstorms and tornadoes are commonplace.

IN THIS ARTICLECholesterol Management Using Diet
Patient Comments
Diet and other lifestyle changes affect your blood cholesterol levels. Changing daily habits may prevent the need to take medication to control cholesterol levels. Cholesterol-lowering medications are available, but they should be used in addition to and not as a substitute for exercise and dietary changes. Lifestyle changes should be employed first and continued for a lifetime. Diets high in saturated fat are linked to high total blood cholesterol levels and pose an increased risk for heart disease and other vascular diseases. Simply put, reduce all fats in your diet, paying particular attention to saturated fats. The American Heart Association suggests that fats should represent no more than 30% of total calories you consume in a day, but 25% or 20% is even better. Most of the fats in the diet should be unsaturated.
Certain foods really do have health benefits for controlling cholesterol and overall heart health beyond providing basic nutrition. The Department of Health and Human Services identifies these food choices.

The purpose of your marketing research requirement is two-fold: 1) To expose you to various techniques used in marketing research, and 2) To expose you to research topics and methods that are used by marketing professors at UTSA. UTSA's mission is to become a premier public research university. This means that along with teaching and service duties, professors are also involved in research. This is important to the field of marketing because it results in the creation of new knowledge, and this new knowledge is what forms the basis of future marketing education. Examples of this can be found simply by looking in your textbooks at the references (endnotes) that appear throughout. These references often pertain to original research done by university professors, including those here at UTSA. Students at UTSA also benefit directly from this research because your professors can pass along this new knowledge even before it makes it into tomorrow's textbook. Thus, the research component of your class requirements serves those two important functions: 1) Teaching you more about actual research techniques through active participation, and 2) Allowing you to pave the way for future marketing students by participating in the creation of new knowledge about marketing.
II. OPTIONS FOR PARTICIPATING The research component of your class requirements represents 10% of your grade. The options for fulfilling this requirement are: 1. Participate in 4 research sessions conducted by a UTSA Marketing professor who is offering the studies for MKT 4093 and MKT 3013 students. These sessions will be available throughout the term, and you can sign up on-line. These sessions last no more than 1 hour. The deadline for participating in studies is Friday, December 6th, 2013.
[IMPORTANT: Please note that sometimes Marketing professors (and also other professors or students around campus) also offer studies as part of other classes (usually their own). These study requirements are separate and do not count toward your research requirement for MKT 4093 or MKT 3013. Only the studies that are posted on the Marketing Dept. research website are eligible toward your research requirement.] 2. Your first research credit is easy to earn. It is an online survey that consists of personality questions and demographics. -- When you login to create an account in the UTSA Marketing Study Sign-Up System (see section III below for details), you will see the "Marketing Pre-test" study in your study list. -- To complete this study, sign up to participate. As soon as you sign up, click the study link to complete all the questions in the online survey. When the survey is complete, you'll get your first study credit. It's as simple as that. -- Note: You must go through the entire survey and type your name on the very last page in order to earn credit. -- You are not required to do the "Marketing Pre-test" study, but it is recommended that you do so because some of the studies offered during the semester will only be available to students who have completed the pre-test. And the only way you can earn credit is by completing the pre-test study. -- The Marketing Pre-test study will only be available during the first half of the semester. The last day to complete the Marketing Pre-test study will be Friday, October 25th, 2013. 3. In place of each research session, you can provide a 2-3 page written summary of a marketing research article written by a UTSA Marketing professor. --Thus, you can participate in 4 research sessions and write no papers, participate in 3 sessions and write 1 paper, participate in 2 sessions and write 2 papers, participate in 1 session and write 3 papers, or participate in no sessions and write 4 papers. --Instructions for writing the paper, as well as deadline and submission information, are in Section VI.
III. PROCEDURES FOR SIGNING UP To sign up for research sessions, visit the following Marketing Department research web address and follow instructions: http://utsa-marketing.sona-systems.com/. Create an account by clicking on "New Participant? Create new account here" in the bottom left corner of the screen.
When creating your account: 1) CAREFULLY read the hints on the account creation page before providing your information.
2) Make sure your e-mail address is spelled correctly (e.g., be absolutely sure you actually know your full UTSA e-mail address).
3) You can use an e-mail address other than your UTSA account.
--HOWEVER, be aware that many of the most popular e-mail accounts (e.g., Yahoo, Hotmail, etc.) have very aggressive spam filters that very often flag communications from me and the sign-up system (SONA Systems), and thus you might not get them. --If you are using an e-mail address other than your UTSA account, be sure to set your system specifications to allow your inbox to receive these messages.
4) Include a telephone number, if possible. This will be used only in the event we need to contact you regarding information you need to know immediately (for instance, that a study has been cancelled).
5) Once you provide information on this initial screen, your password will then be sent to the e-mail address you provided.
--This should occur very quickly (within a few minutes). --If you have not received your password within 24 hours, it might be because you provided an incorrect e-mail address. --If that is the case, contact Ashley Arsena (LabAdmin @utsa.edu), who is in charge of administering the studies.
6) When you receive your password, it will be a random number. PLEASE log into the system with this password, but then IMMEDIATELY change it to something you can remember easily.
7) Once you are entered into the system, you will receive a randomly generated number called an "identity code." This number is used to keep your name anonymous while participating in studies. You must provide that number in order to participate in any study this semester. Please write this number down and bring the number with you whenever you participate in studies.
IV. TROUBLE SHOOTING Please pay close attention to the following to avoid any problems:
1) If you have problems logging into the system from UTSA labs (in the form of an error message that says "Authentification Expired"), this is usually because you are using Internet Explorer as you Internet browser, and the UTSA labs have configured the system specifications regarding cookie activation. To solve this problem, we suggest using Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, or Safari as your browser instead.
2) Sign up for studies that fit your schedule as soon as they become available. Studies will be offered at various times throughout the semester. However, if you wait until near the end of the term (and your fellow students do the same thing), you might not have as many studies from which to choose. Thus, we highly encourage you to complete your studies as soon as you can.
3) Remember that the number of spaces in each study is limited, so studies fill up very quickly when they are offered. This means that you might not always be able to get into a specific study, but rest assured that you will have ample opportunity to sign up for your required number of studies.
4) SHOW UP FOR YOUR STUDY. Please come to the studies you sign up for, and please don't sign up for studies you don't plan to attend. The system will limit sign-ups for each student to 3 studies at a time, but be polite to your fellow students and only sign up for studies when you really plan to be there. Spaces are limited, so if you sign up and don't come to the study you are wasting a space that someone else might have wanted. In other words, if you do not show up, you deprive your fellow students of the opportunity to participate in that study. In addition, you require the professors to run additional sessions in order to get the required level of participation.
If you sign up for a study but then realize you cannot make it, it is very easy to cancel. Just log in and in the middle of the screen is a link for viewing or cancelling your current enrollment in a study. Try to cancel right away when you realize that you can't attend a session. Of course, we realize that even under the best of circumstances, you might not be able to make a study without cancelling it. Thus, we give you two free "no-shows" for appointments you scheduled but did not attend or cancel. After that, however, you will be barred from participation in future studies and thus will probably have to write the research papers to fulfill your research requirement.
5) GO TO THE RIGHT PLACE FOR YOUR STUDY. There are two marketing laboratories in the Business Building, one on the 3rd floor and one on the 4th floor. Be sure you are going to the right lab for your study!
The 3rd floor Marketing lab is in BB 3.02.14, and directions are as follows: (1) Go up the main stairway in the business building from the 2nd to the 3rd floor; (2) Continue down the main corridor on the 3rd floor. Pass the single elevator and turn left at the next hallway (there are drinking fountains here); (3) Continue down this hallway, turning left at the end; and (4) Enter BB 3.02.14 (the Advanced Computer Projects lab), and the Marketing lab is the first door on the right inside that room.
The 4th floor Marketing lab is in BB.4.03.26, and directions are as follows: (1) Go the Business Building; (2) Take the elevator to the 4th floor and step out into the main hallway; (3) At one end of the main hallway, you'll find the Dean's office; (4) With the Dean's office on your left (and the restrooms at your back), walk straight ahead; (5) After you walk a few steps into the long corridor, take a right turn; and (6) Walk about halfway down the hall, and you'll find BB.4.03.26 on your right.
6) BE ON TIME. Once the study is started, it cannot be interrupted without disturbing the session. Thus, once the door is closed and the study has begun, you will not be allowed to participate even if you are just a few minutes late. It is important that you know this, and thus can plan accordingly. It is also important that you understand that this is not a punishment by your professors and their research assistants (we want you to participate in the study!), but just a requirement of good research designs. It is also important to note that abuse (e.g., cursing, yelling, pounding on the door, throwing books, any aggressive physical contact, etc.) of the research assistants who enforce this rule will not be tolerated. Students who engage in any of these abusive behaviors will be banned from participating in experiments for the remainder of the semester and will have to complete their research requirement by writing research papers.
V. COMMUNICATING WITH YOU We will communicate with you via e-mail throughout the semester. This will entail:
a) Announcements of new studies as they are posted (so you don't have to continually log on and monitor the website for study availability) b) Notification of registration when you sign up for a study c) Reminders (the day prior to the scheduled time) that your study is coming up d) Notification of credit for a study. This should occur within 24 hours; if not, contact Ashley Arsena (firstname.lastname@example.com).
You can also check the status of your credit at any time when you log on. If you have problems or questions about the research studies, you should contact Ashley Arsena (email@example.com), NOT your MKT professor.
VI. INSTRUCTIONS FOR RESEARCH PAPERS As stated in your syllabus, you may fulfill the marketing research requirement by writing a paper or participating in a research study. To receive full credit, you need to complete some combination of 4 studies or papers. Thus, you can complete 4 research sessions and no papers, 3 research sessions and 1 paper, 2 research sessions and 2 papers, 1 research session and 3 papers, or no research sessions and 4 papers.
Guidelines for your papers are as follows: 1) The papers represent articles or book chapters published by Marketing professors at UTSA. PDF files of these papers can be found on the Marketing Department Website (http://business.utsa.edu/marketing/mkt_subjectpool_articles.aspx).
2) The papers should consist of at least 2-3 pages of content, double-spaced, with 1" margins and a 12-point font or equivalent. Papers not meeting these requirements may be rejected and not granted credit or sent back with requested changes.
3) Your paper should consist of the following sections: a. Introduction: Thorough summary of the topic of the article, its objectives, and its findings b. Your critique of and opinion on the article and a discussion of its implications
Turning in your papers: a) First, if you have not done so, go to the Marketing Department's SONA Systems website and create an account (http://utsa-marketing.sona-systems.com/.) Click on the "request account here" link in the bottom left-hand corner. You must do this in order to have your credit recorded. b) Send your paper electronically to Ashley Arsena (firstname.lastname@example.com) in the form of a Word file. You should receive a credit acknowledgement within 48 hours. If you do not, contact Ashley Arsena.
Friday, December 6th, 2013 at 5 p.m.
Papers turned in after the deadline will not receive credit. Thus, if you are plan on turning in a paper, it is best to turn it in with plenty of time to spare to avoid unforeseen problems.
