The Cell and Developmental Biology Department at the University of Massachusetts Medical School is a highly interactive multidisciplinary program that is consistently rated among the top 12% in the nation. The Cell Biology faculty are conducting paradigm shifting research into some of the most complex, medically relevant problems that face our society today, and are dedicated to preparing our students to face these challenges in an environment of rapidly advancing technology. Our graduates are leaders in academics, industry and public service.
Under the leadership of Cell and Developmental Biology faculty, longstanding program project grants from the National Cancer Institute and the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases are instrumental in facilitating collaborations between Cell Biology faculty and colleagues throughout the medical school basic science and clinical programs.
The Department of Cell and Developmental Biology currently occupies over 50,000 square feet of high quality space on three floors of the Basic Science and Student Lab wings of the Medical School and in Biotech 4 on the Medical School campus. We have 22 faculty members and 150 postdocs, research associates, students and staff. The infrastructure of the department supports seventeen research labs and a significant share of medical and graduate student education.
Cell and Developmental Biology faculty have attained national distinction in medical education and are consistently recognized by awards for excellence and innovation in teaching and curriculum development. Our commitment to education spans the entire calendar year. In the classroom, the department has the responsibility for providing instruction to medical students, graduate students and postgraduate physicians and scientists in molecular and cell biology, human genetics, embryology, histology, organ biology, gross anatomy and neuroanatomy. Thus, we cover state-of-the-art molecular cell biology as well as the traditional anatomical disciplines.
Medical students, graduate students and postgraduate physicians and scientists actively participate in the departmental research programs. There is a strong emphasis on multi-disciplinary team approaches where shared concepts and expertise of physicians and scientists expedite the translation of fundamental biological findings to the resolution of clinical problems.
A unique feature of Cell and Developmental Biology's departmental research program is the focus on mammalian development that includes gametogenesis, fertilization, early embryogenesis, organogenesis, tissue remodeling, and senescence. Recent advances by Department of Cell and Developmental Biology investigators in the organization and assembly of regulatory machinery in nuclear microenvironments of human embryonic stem and reprogrammed pluripotent stem cells have established a new dimension to understanding regulatory mechanisms that are operative in cell fate and lineage commitment.
Investigators in the Department have achieved international distinction for defining linkages of nuclear structure and cytoarchitecture with the gene regulatory mechanisms that mediate biological control and compromised organization, assembly and activity of the regulatory machinery for gene expression in cancer, musculoskeletal disease and renal disease, and reproductive as well as neurological disorders. The translational effectiveness of our research program is a direct reflection of interdisciplinary pursuits of fundamental regulatory mechanisms in a collaborative setting with basic scientists, clinicians and physician/investigators.
The Department's research and teaching programs, focus on utilization of cellular, biochemical and genetic approaches that incorporate the highest resolution genomic, proteomic and bioinformatic strategies to address structure-function relationships associated with cell growth, differentiation, and development as well as genetic and epigenetic control of gene expression in human embryonic stem cells and lineage committed specialized cells. Emphasis is on basic biological and biomedical processes with applications to clinical medicine and biotechnology.
Our effectiveness has been enhanced by collaborations with colleagues in many of the clinical and basic science departments. We make a concerted effort to optimize collaborations with our colleagues in UMASS Memorial Health Care in areas that bridge basic science and clinical medicine in both research and education. Cell Dev Bio faculty participate in and play active leadership roles in the Cancer Center, the Musculoskeletal Center and the Diabetes and Endocrinology Research Center. These transdisciplinary centers provide environments where regulatory mechanisms seamlessly translate to the prevention, detection and treatment of human disease. Equally important has been the development and continued expansion of joint research and education programs with investigators in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries and also with scientists at several institutions in Boston, Worcester, and throughout New England. To expand opportunities for collaborative research we have developed international partnerships with China and Japan, and major programs in Israel, Singapore, Italy, Pakistan, China and Chile that are grant funded.
Research in the Department is principally funded by the National Institutes of Health, with major support from the National Cancer Institute, the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases, the National Institute of General Medical Sciences, the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research, National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute, the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, and the National Institute on Drug Abuse. Various labs and researchers also enjoy funding support from the Department of Defense, private foundations including the American Heart Association, the Ellison Foundation and the American Cancer Society. Our research activities are augmented by a reproductive/developmental biology training grant. Training faculty are from several basic science and clinical departments. Trainees include graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, MD/PhD students and clinical fellows. A second training program supports research training for undergraduate students underrepresented in biomedical sciences (minorities, economically or physically disadvantaged, etc). These NIH funded training programs reflect the effectiveness of the educational/community service commitment of our faculty. Members of the Cell and Developmental Biology Department faculty serve on Advisory Boards for federal granting agencies, state agencies and programs throughout the U.S., private biomedical research foundations, biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies and foreign governments throughout the world.

Hey guys I looked at a berkel slicer today. The belt slips when the run stuff thru it. But when I checked the belt it was really tight. Why would it be slipping? The machine is a berkel M#829-a S#22397 Could the blade not be sharp enough?
Belt may be tight.. But whats the condition of the belt?
I would wonder about the blade, but make sure the belt isn't glazed, which could make it slip
The main thing is to keep the main thing the main thing! If "the grass is greener on the other side", it likely has been fertilized with Bull$hit!
What type of food are they slicing? Belt-driven slicers are not ideal if they are slicing cheeses. Most manufactures recommend a gear-driven slicer if you are going to be slicing many cheeses. I would also check the blade as well.

Info sought on missing Mont Vernon woman who disappeared while going to rent a car
MONT VERNON - Authorities are seeking information on the whereabouts of a Mont Vernon woman last seen by her family Nov. 19.
Kathleen Ann Colburn, 29, told her family she was going to Manchester-Boston Regional Airport to rent a car.
Sgt. Aaron Daigneault said Colburn reportedly rented a car from Hertz at the airport on Nov. 21.
"She was subsequently seen at a business in Milford on (Nov. 21) asking for money," police said in a news release issued Thursday.
Police said she showed up at The Fish Bowl, a pet supply store where she previously worked. She returned to the rental car facility two days later, again leaving with the silver 2012 Jeep Liberty with Massachusetts plates 2ANM90.
"She never came home after that," Daigneault said, noting Colburn lives with her parents.
Police said that today marks her seventh day without being seen or heard from.
"We do not suspect foul play," Daigneault said, but Colburn's family is worried.
Colburn is 5 foot 8 inches, weighs about 130 pounds, and has brown hair and brown eyes. Anyone with information is asked to contact Daigneault at 603-673-5610.

Suppan's Got Photos of Someone – Seriously, Jeff Suppan has photos of someone or some type of dirt on Macha, Melvin or Attanasio…maybe all three. By keeping Suppan on the roster as well, much less trotting him out there to get lit up, Macha & Melvin diminish their already dwindling fan faith and good will that is left. I get it that Suppan is a great guy, does wonderful things in the community and blah – blah – blah, he's a liability on the field and a waste of a roster spot that could be sorely used on just about anyone at this point with an arm.
Have a link, tip or something else that should be included in this space? Email us and give us the scoop.

Suppan somehow continues to avoid the DFA…he has to run out of luck at some point though. Between Hawkins, Davis and maybe even Riske, he's got to go when one of these comes back, right? Right? Please?
Detroit was able to trade Dontrelle Willis to Arizona after being DFA, maybe some sucker will send us a box of Bazooka and some sunflower seeds in return for Suppan.
http://mike BigSnakeMan
AZ was able to make the deal with Detroit because it was an exchange of two pitchers who were equally ineffective. I'm not sure there's another pitcher around who's been as consistently bad as Suppan.

Husbands who routinely don aprons get less sex, according to a new study lauded by lazy married men.
The study in the American Sociological Review says husbands who spend more time doing traditionally female chores, such as cooking, cleaning, and shopping, report having less sex than those who partake "in traditionally masculine tasks — yard work, paying bills, and auto maintenance," reports Agence France Presse.
The study looked at 7,002 straight, married couples in the United States. The median age of those in the study was about 43. Data used in the study was collected from 1992 to 1994. Researchers could not use more recent info because "to our knowledge, it is the only dataset with detailed measures of both sexual frequency and actual participation in household labor."
Still, the researchers, two-thirds of which are female, concluded "display of gender is important for creation of sexual desire and performance of sexual activity."
"Men or women may, in essence, be turned on (however indirectly) when partners in a marriage do more gender-traditional work."
A female co-worker contacted for this story said, "That is complete [bleep]."
Wives in the study reported having sex 5.6 times per month; husbands 5.2 times per month.
Researchers are aware their conclusions conflict with earlier studies, but point out their study takes into account exactly what type of work is being performed.
"One key innovation [in the study] is that rather than consider all housework as identical, we separately examine men's and women's time spent in traditionally masculine and traditionally feminine tasks," researchers wrote.
Unfortunately, researchers also concluded husbands who do nothing to help around the house may eventually live alone in a crummy 1-bedroom apartment stacked high with dirty dishes and empty pizza boxes.
"Men who refuse to help around the house could increase conflict in their marriage and lower their wives' marital satisfaction," said researcher Sabino Kornrich.
Other studies, however, have concluded "Couples Who Share Housework Run Higher Risk Of Divorce."
Perhaps my not knowing my home contained a dishwasher, until it broke, is a good thing.
Other interesting tidbits alleged in the study:

Todd Helton announced yesterday that he would be retiring at the end of the 2013 season. Got to respect his decision to wait until there's just a couple of weeks left to make the announcement, rather than turning his last season into the Helton Farewell Tour 2013. That - and I'm particularly looking at you, Chipper Jones and Mariano Rivera - seems a rather egotistical way of doing things, saying "Look at meeeee! Last chance! I won't be heeeere again!" You can certainly make a case that you can let team-mates and the organization know, so they can plan accordingly. But all the resulting hoopla we've seen this year with Rivera seems pretty off-putting to me.
Helton was certainly good. Very good. Indeed, for half a decade he was arguably the best first-baseman in the game. Over the five-year period from 2000 through 2004, his .349 batting average was the highest in baseball, while his OPS was second in the majors to Barry Bonds. And even though Coors obviously played into that [we'll discuss this more in a moment], his park-adjusted OPS+ was still fifth-best, behind Bonds, Jason Giambi, Albert Pujols and Manny Ramirez. In that period, he went 5-for-5 in All-Star appearances, while winning four Silver Sluggers and three Gold Gloves.
And, of course, there's playing the entire career for one team, which is something you really don't see much of these days, especially for a mid-market franchise like the Rockies. Not that this was exactly some kind of altruistic act by Helton: according to B-R.com, he earned over $160 million from Colorado since making his debut for them back in 1997. The question now is, will his number get him into the Hall of Fame? Even though his career overlapped the height of the steroid era, there has never been even a whisper about Helton. Let's face it: he didn't need steroids, he had a legal equivalent, playing at Coors Field.
It is a perfectly legitimate argument to wonder whether that inflated his numbers excessively. Over his career so far, here are the splits:
Split | G | PA | AB | R | H | HR | RBI | BB | SO | ||||
Home | 1132 | 4801 | 4000 | 867 | 1381 | 225 | 850 | 709 | 505 | .345 | .442 | .607 | 1.048 |
Away | 1103 | 4600 | 3913 | 527 | 1124 | 142 | 547 | 624 | 657 | .287 | .386 | .470 | .856 |
His home numbers are just insane, but the road ones are pretty mediocre by Cooperstown standards. As a yardstick, that .856 OPS on the road is exactly the same as Luis Gonzalez had in his career, and much though I love Gonzo, I don't see him having to write an induction speech any time soon. So, for me, Helton goes into the Hall of Very Good, but comes up short of being worthy of the full enchilada. That's no shame, and I look forward to not having to Fear the Beard coming to the plate any longer.

Jon Bugher, retired Clallam County Fire District 2 fire chief, teaches home gardeners how to make their landscapes more fire-resistant at noon Thursday, July 25, in the county commissioners meeting room of the Clallam County Courthouse, 223 E. Fourth St., Port Angeles; and at 10 a.m. Saturday, July 27, at the Class Act at Woodcock Garden program at demonstration garden, 2711 Woodcock Road, Sequim.
Bugher will discuss fire-resistant plants and maintenance practices such as pruning, eliminating the ladder of fuel and establishing defensible space between a home and adjacent property to protect the home from wildland fire.
His landscaping tips for fire safety and inhibiting fire spread include the use of nonflammable materials and the discontinuance of some traditional gulch ground covers. A WSU Clallam County Master Gardener, Bugher has over 40 years of firefighting experience and fire-prevention training.

We don't hear it much anymore if at all. Think of the first verse tonight as Mr. Romney speaks. I chokes me up when I think on it myself.Mitt's mother once said that Mitt was her "miracle baby" as she brought him into this world at an unlikely stage in her later life.

Great column by Howie Carr! Thanks for posting, OP! I agree with #7 and #8. IMO, the "media" in this Country is every bit as corrupt and dangerous as "Tokyo Rose" during the war, because her intent was to discourage American Troops and the "msm" are spewing lies and fake "polls" to keep the most anti-American "president" EVER in the history of this Country in office!

I can't believe that the news men and women don't realize what contempt we have for them. Just because we are somewhat polite, in contrast to them and the once reputable politicians of the left, doesn't mean that we don't think that they are fools who can't see the looming dictatorship that Obama is signaling.

This week, Pat Caddell called the media,THE ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE. Roger Simon wrote the socialist corrupted media will never be voted out of office. And this writer, long ago labeled them all Traitors to the Truth, all of them, The Mafia Media, the unionized Protection Racket to the current Imposter, his White House comrades and all of greed addicted big spending Congress, and every bureaucrat in Washington. A destructive lot of Beltway thieves topped off by the Orwellian media controllers like Diane Sawyer, Scott Pelley, Brian Williams, Tom Brokaw, David Letterman, and sadly, too many socialist imposters on Fox TVNews, too. We are in deep trouble no matter who wins, because, as Roger Simon says, the media stays the same. These same destructive, socialist, communist, fascist driven unionized millionaires will continue to preach their Stalinist, Hitlerian collectivism to all beer drinking Americans no matter who wins. Howie Carr's idea of watching only CNN is bad enough because you will still have to hear enough lies to make you sick. Click Here if you Like this Comment 2 persons like this.

As a trend spotter, I note the press in this article is being referred to either as "court eunichs" [Steyn] or "castrati" [Ms. Lucianne, Rush]. In the past we have seen no agreement on pejorative usage. Some of us who eschew the use of asterisks, have referred to them as the "gay press,""ass press," "ass hats," "slobberers," "sex workers,""madcows," "Katie Courvas," "MSDNC," "Pravda on the Hudson," "tinglers" "renfields," "crapweasels,""jackwagons," "traitors," "internationalists," enemies of the state," and worse.

I am one of those who will not bother to watch this dog and pony show. As said previously, it will wind up with numerous proclamations of how Obozo "won" the debate, blah, blah, blah. In my lifetime (67yrs) I have NEVER seen one of these so called debates that was declared to be "won" by the Republican candidate. I suppose that is because all Republicans are clowns, ignorant, buffoons, etc. And by the way, how does one "win" a debate?

Absolutely right about C-SPAN. FOX commentators are less in Obama's pocket but they too, like all commentators, blabber on and on about inane stuff like "his body language indicated confidence" and "his retort seemed to fall flat" like it's all just a stupid beauty contest.I'd give anything for commentators to actually help us out -- point out what is being said, and not being said, about actual policies that affect the American people. Obama would carry entitlements right over a cliff, which is something that needs to be pointed out to younger voters: voting Obama is the same thing as eviscerating your own future social security. Why Romney doesn't point this out more bluntly, I don't know, but commentators sure don't pick up the slack. "Nice tie" is the level of it, from them.

Speaking of drooling. Hannity played a tape on his radio show yesterday of a montage of girly man Stephanopoulos saying as far back as the GWB and Al Gorbot debates that the democrat won hands down.

I watch C-Span for events that might be edited or interrupted for commercial breaks on the other outlets, including FNC. However, the debate format accommodates commercial breaks, and this is not an issue tonight. Yes, FNC has Juan and Beckel and other liberal voices to prop up the "fair and balanced" thing. However, C-Span has their poorly-screened viewer comments (are those really all conservatives on the "Republican" line?) during breaks and after the event, which can be just as irritating to me. I'll watch FNC tonight to hear the take of a few people whose opinion I respect. My brain can filter out the others. Bottom line: it's a wash between C-Span and FNC on this particular event - take your pick. Click Here if you Like this Comment

I have a problem with liner giving me racoon eyes in less than an hour. This liner doesn't go anywhere! They have it in grey - black - and brown. I kind of love the grey. I found it at Ulta - you can also buy it on Benefit's website -

2. Almond Milk
I started putting the unsweetened version from Whole Foods in my coffee/tea in the morning and it is awesome! Much healthier than cream...and only 40 per cup! I usually find it for just a $1.99!

New England Board of Higher Education RSP Tuition Break
The University of Vermont, in participation with the New England Board of Higher Education (NEBHE)'s RSP Tuition Break program, offers discounted tuition to permanent residents of New England States wishing to pursue select degree programs not available in their home state.
Visit the official NEBHE site here. |
Students enrolled in an approved program pay an increased percentage of instate tuition rather than the full out of state rate. Beginning in the Fall of 2007 students enrolling in an approved program will pay 175% of instate tuition. For questions about the tuition rate contact Student Financial Services at firstname.lastname@example.com.
To be considered eligible for the discounted rate
students must apply and be accepted into an approved program offered by the University of Vermont which is not offered by an institution in their home state.
It is important to note that, "approved degree programs do not necessarily include every program for which residents might expect to be RSP-eligible. Participating colleges and universities may decide against offering certain programs, such as those which are highly competitive (NEBHE.)" A full list of the University of Vermont's approved degree programs and their qualifying states appears below.
To qualify for the RSP tuition discount students must declare a degree in a program approved for residents of their state prior to the beginning of a semester.
In order to maintain the discounted tuition rate students must continue
to actively pursue their approved degree program by
enrolling in at least one course per semester which applies toward their
degree. If at any time during a semester a student enrolled in the RSP
program drops or withdraws from all courses applying toward their degree
they will no longer be eligible for reduced tuition and will be billed
accordingly. Further, if a student switches to an unapproved major
during the semester, they will no longer be eligible for reduced tuition
and will be billed accordingly.
Any student in an approved program from an approved state can request RSP status. However, the reduced tuition rate will be effective only for the term requested and future terms. It is not retroactive.
Approved Degree Programs
For questions about undergraduate degree programs contact the Registrar's Office. For questions about graduate degree programs contact the Graduate College.
*Special note: For students pursuing the DPT degree in the 3+3 program, eligiblility for the discounted rate begins upon completion of their undergraduate program. The undergraduate preparatory program for the DPT degree is not covered under the RSP.

Re: Jelly Bean for the Galaxy Tab 2 7.0
The short answer is, I think it is coming, but I don't know when.
Certain versions of the Tab 2 in certain regions of the world are getting Jelly Bean now... Samsung seems to do what every other android company does as far as announcing releases... One of the following:
1) Not announced, sometimes will be released without announcement.
2) Announced, with a release date of "Coming Soon" or similar.
3) Announced with a release date of "Released" for something that has already shipped.
Even though some reliable sites report being told by Samsung that JB was coming for the Tab 2, there is no indication of tablet releases on the Samsung site. Therefore, I am thinking we will fall under #1, possibly followed by #3.
However, there are people trying to determine how to downgrade from JB... Apparently, they don't like the one size fits all aspect of JB (same layout on a 7" tab as on a phone). - 12-18-2012, 10:21 PM #3
Re: Jelly Bean for the Galaxy Tab 2 7.0
Personally I love my JellyBean on my Samsung Galaxy S3, and now I have a Samsung Tab 2 7.0 from Verizon being delivered to me on Friday, and I had hopes that Jellybean would be pushed out to these tablets. I just love how Jellybean looks/operates.
Re: Jelly Bean for the Galaxy Tab 2 7.0
I have just got the OS upgraded to Jelly Bean on my Samsung Tab 2 and it is not as great as I would have hoped for.
A few minor irritants spoil the overall experience.
The major issue is how much the native 'email' application lags. It takes forever to load and sometimes it hangs the phone.
Earlier there was a widget that would pin a single email account on the home screen. I use multiple accounts and this was very helpful. Now this is gone.
The notifications now drop from the top instead of being in the bottom right corner. This is extremely frustrating as it makes using the tab more cumbersome.
Also a few minor irritants include the fact that now I cannot have the 'screenshot' option on the home screen. I take loads of screenshots and it is a pain now. Don't know if there is another way to do it.
When you want to go to the phone; earlier there were separate options on the screen for 'keypad', 'contacts', 'favorites', etc. Now this is on the top left corner in a drop down. Again; more cumbersome to reach and need two 'touches' instead of one.
Despite de-selecting screen rotation; the screen still rotates. This seems to be a bug.
I am extremely frustrated and I don't know if there is an official feedback that I can send to the guys developing the version for this device. I would highly recommend users who email a lot to stay away from this upgrade as it has messed up the email application. - 12-20-2012, 06:55 PM #5

Executive Summary
In July 2007, the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts identified Patton Springs Independent School District (ISD) in Dickens County as one of 43 school districts meeting the criteria that initiate an Appraisal Standards Review (ASR) of the appraisal district that serves them. In April 2008, the Comptroller's Property Tax Assistance Division (PTAD), with assistance from contractors, began its review of the Dickens County Appraisal District (CAD).
School Districts, the Property Value Study and Appraisal Standards Reviews
Texas funds public education by a combination of state and local funds. Local funding comes from property taxes assessed by a school district's board of trustees. The state bases its funding on the amount of money per student that can be raised locally. The state's funding formula sends more money to school districts that are less able to raise money locally because of insufficient taxable property value.
Each school district in the state is served by a county appraisal district charged with appraising its property at market value. The chief appraiser of each appraisal district determines the property values that, after approval by the appraisal review board (ARB), its school districts will use to set tax rates.
PTAD conducts an annual Property Value Study (PVS) that assigns a value to all taxable property within each school district for state funding purposes. The PVS, an independent estimate required by the Texas Legislature, is intended to help the state ensure equitable school funding. The PVS ensures equity by detecting instances in which school property values are not at market value and adjusting them to market value for use in the state's funding formula.
The Comptroller's property values do not directly affect local values or property taxes. However, when study statistics give the Comptroller a high degree of confidence that the aggregate local value for property categories tested in the study is lower than the state's estimate of the correct value, and that aggregate local value is more than 5 percent below the state's estimate, the school district may receive less state funding than expected. School districts may protest the state's preliminary determination of their property value through an appeals process. Understanding the reasons for the differences in valuation, however, can be critical for school districts and the appraisal districts that serve them.
The Legislature granted a two-year grace period for school districts whose state funding is adversely affected by PVS findings. During this grace period, school districts can work with their appraisal districts to correct any inaccuracies or inconsistencies before state funding is lost. To aid this process, the ASR provides the appraisal district and its local taxing units with an independent assessment of their appraisal standards.
By law, to be eligible for the grace period, a school district must have an invalid local value that does not exceed the state value; valid local values for the two preceding years; and a current aggregate local value for tested property categories that is at least 90 percent of the lower limit of the margin of error.
Appraisal Standards Reviews
PTAD performs ASRs when a school district is eligible for the grace period. ASRs recommend changes in procedures or methods that can improve appraisal accuracy and compliance with state law and appraisal standards. The results can help school districts understand the reason for the invalid finding, so that they can work with their appraisal districts to correct problems and ensure that all property in the district is appraised fairly and accurately.
In conducting an ASR, PTAD examines and evaluates appraisal practices including methodologies, planning and procedures and the application of and adherence to generally accepted appraisal standards and practices. The Property Tax Code and Comptroller rules are the major criteria used in the review.
The Property Tax Code requires appraisal districts to use certain generally accepted appraisal procedures or standards, such as the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP), specifically Standard 6: Mass Appraisal, Development and Reporting, as well as the International Association of Assessing Officers' (IAAO's) Technical Standards. In addition, ASRs rely on other generally accepted standards when reviewing appraisal procedures and methods.
The two principal purposes of the ASR are to determine why the local value is invalid and to recommend improvements to appraisal practices. Upon completing the review process, the Comptroller issues a report of findings that may include commendations for exemplary appraisal practices and recommendations for improvements. The law requires appraisal districts to comply with the Comptroller's recommendations concerning appraisal methods and procedures within one year of the report's release.
If PTAD finds that the CAD's board of directors fails to comply with the ASR recommendations within one year of their issuance, state law requires the Comptroller to notify the judge of each district court in the county. The district judge(s), in turn, must appoint a five-member board of conservators to implement the recommendations. This board of conservators supervises and controls the CAD's operations until each school district it serves has valid local values in the annual PVS. The CAD must bear the costs for this supervision.
Dickens CAD faces several challenges in achieving and maintaining consistent current market appraisals.
Key Findings and Recommendations
Below is a summary of the ASR's key recommendations. These recommendations address the problems and challenges identified in the detailed findings described in Chapter 2 of this report. PTAD makes eight recommendations:
Prepare a detailed local appraisal procedures manual that provides directives for each type of property the CAD appraises.
Perform sales ratio studies as specified in the reappraisal plan to ensure the CAD appraises all categories of property at current market value.
Improve methods for obtaining data for calculating productivity values.
Adhere to a board-approved reappraisal plan to meet reappraisal goals and objectives.
Develop and adopt written procedures for gathering, analyzing and adjusting valid sales data.
Maintain appraisal cards in compliance with Comptroller Rule 9.3001.
Develop a timeline and work plan to develop maps that comply with Comptroller Rule 9.3002.
Other Recommendations
In addition to the previous recommendations, the review team identified a management and operational issue that is not directly related to the appraisal process, but can have an indirect impact on the appraisal district's ability to conduct its appraisals accurately and consistently. The CAD is not obligated to implement this recommendation, but it is provided here for consideration as an additional way to enhance operational effectiveness and efficiency. Appraisal districts, as Texas governmental entities, are required to comply with all applicable laws.
Develop written guidelines for monitoring professional service contracts.
