dplyr is great…but
I have been loving Hadley Wickham's new dplyr package for R. It creates a relatively small number of verbs to quickly and easily manipulate data. It is generally as fast as data.table but unless you're already very familiar with data.table the syntax is much easier. There are a number of great introductions and tutorials, which I won't attempt to recreate but here are some links:
The only challenge with going to dplyr has been dealing with the non-standard evaluation (see vignette("nse") and the new tbl_df class that gets created. In theory the resulting dataframes created from dplyr should act both as a data.frame object and as a new tbl_df object. There are some nice new features associated with tbl_df objects but also some idiosyncrasies that can break existing code.
For example, I had a function:
stdCovs <- function (x, y, var.names) {
for (i in 1:length(var.names)) {
x[, var.names[i]] <- (x[, var.names[i]] - mean(y[, var.names[i]], na.rm = T)) /
sd(y[, var.names[i]], na.rm = T)
that took the standardized covariates from one dataframe and applied them to standardize another dataframe for a particular set of covariates. This was particularly useful for doing predictions for new data using coefficients from a different dataset that had been standardized (y.standard). The code above worked when I was using data.frame objects. However, I have now started using dplyr for a variety of reasons but the code no longer works. I believe this is due to how tbl_df objects handle bracketing (e.g. y[ , var]). There is an issue on GitHub related to this.
In the end it turned out that double bracketing to extract the column works: Rather than the y[ , var] formulation it should be y[[var]]. Not too hard but the type of thing that wastes an hour when going to a new package. Despite this challenge and similar things, I highly recommend dplyr. Now hopefully the simplicity of the verbs and speed of computation can make up for the few hours spent learning and adjusting code.
Here's my final code:
stdCovs <- function(x, y, var.names){
for(i in 1:length(var.names)){
x[ , var.names[i]] <- (x[ , var.names[i]] - mean(y[[var.names[i]]], na.rm = T)) /
sd(y[[var.names[i]]], na.rm = T)
One of the best features of dplyr is it's use of magrittr for piping functions together with the %>% symbol. It's not shown above but it's worth learning. Previously, you would either have a bunch of useless intermediate objects created or a long string of nested functions that were hard (impossible at times) to decipher. The "then" command (%>%) does away with this as shown here by Revolution Analytics:
Here's the same code, but rather than nesting one function call inside the next, data is passed from one function to the next using the %>% operator:
Beautiful, right. Pipes are fantastic and combined with dplyr's simple verbs make coding a lot easier and more readable once you get the hang of it.
Blue Jay and Scrub Jay : Using rvertnet to check the distributions in R
This is a great post about a great package. Unlike some other broad vertebrate databases, VertNet has good QAQC. It's great being able to access it directly in R where the data manipulation, analysis, and even plotting will occur. Thank you to the ROpenSci team for development of the rvertnet package and Vijay Barve for the clear, simple tutorial.
Originally posted on Vijay Barve:
As part of my Google Summer of Code, I am also working on another package for R called rvertnet. This package is a wrapper in R for VertNet websites. Vertnet is a vertebrate distributed database network consisting of FishNet2, MaNIS, HerpNET, and ORNIS. Out of that currently Fishnet, HerpNET and ORNIS have their v2 portals serving data. rvertnet has functions now to access this data and import them into R data frames.
Some of my lab mates faced a difficulty in downloading data for Scrub Jay (Aphelocoma spp. ) due to large number of records (220k+) on ORNIS, so decided to try using rvertnet package which was still in development that time. The package really helpe and got the results quickly. So while ecploring that data I came up with this case study.
So here to get data for Blue Jay (Cyanocitta cristata) which is distributed in…

Teaching Scientific Computing: Peer Review
This post is going out on a bit of a limb because I am not familiar with the pedagogical literature relating to teaching scientific computing. As such, I can only speak from my very limited experience. I've taken a couple short courses on scientific computing, but the only formal full-semester course I've taken was Introduction to C Programming for Engineers 15 years ago. In that course, the instructor spent 50 minutes 3 days a week writing code on the chalk board in front of us and we were expected to learn. Homework was to write increasingly large programs throughout the semester. If they didn't work we got a 0%, if they produced the wrong output we got a 50%, and if they worked properly we got a 100%. Obviously it was a terrible course (although a number of my statistic courses that involved programming were not very different so this might be more common than I'd like to believe). Besides some of the conspicuous instructional problems, I was just thinking that scientific programming courses could learn from pedagogy in the humanities. The University of New Hampshire requires undergraduates to take a number of writing intensive courses. To qualify as writing intensive a course my meet 3 criteria:
- Students in the course should do substantial writing that enhances learning and demonstrates knowledge of the subject or the discipline. Writing should be an integral part of the course and should account for a significant part (approximately 50% or more) of the final grade.
- Writing should be assigned in such a manner as to require students to write regularly throughout the course. Major assignments should integrate the process of writing (prewriting, drafting, revision, editing). Students should be able to receive constructive feedback of some kind (peer response, workshop, professor, TA, etc.) during the drafting/revising process to help improve their writing.
- The course should include both formal (graded) and informal (heuristic) writing. There should be papers written outside of class which are handed in for formal evaluation as well as informal assignments designed to promote learning, such as invention activities, in-class essays, reaction papers, journals, reading summaries, or other appropriate exercises.
I think these criteria could be applied or at least adapted for scientific computing courses. The 1st one is easy. The 2nd and 2rd are what I think computing courses could really take advantage of. From what I've seen, there is often not a lot of time spent of informal feedback from instructors and peers to help with revision. In programming, especially with flexible languages like R, there are often many solutions to the same problems. Useful assignments could be to critic the programs of peers, find ways to improve code efficiency, and provide alternative solutions to sections of code. This could include critics of the commenting and README files.
In introductory courses there is often an emphasis on cover content. Some people will balk at the idea of spending time of learning alternatives to simple options when there is clearly 1 best solution and so much material to cover to get students writing even simple scripts. However, it's better in my opinion to learn a few things well than many things superficially. By evaluating, revising, and developing alternatives to code written by peers, students will learn how to program better. There is a reason that informal assessment, peer review, and revision is a required part of writing intensive courses. Those same reasons apply to scientific computing courses. Just as review and revision make us better writers, it will make us better programmers.
RStudio Presentations
After finally getting around to to posting about knitr and Markdown just yesterday, RStudio comes out with an update that makes it even easier: http://www.rstudio.com/ide/docs/presentations/overview
P.S. I Love RStudio
Knitting beautiful documents in RStudio
Title: Knitting Beautiful Documents in RStudio
Header: Markdown
This document was written using Markdown in RStudio. RStudio is a wonderful IDE for writing R scripts and keeping track of variables, dataframes, history, packages and much more. Markdown is a simple formatting syntax for authoring web pages. It allows for easy formatting, for example
# Header 1
## Header 2
### Header 3
#### Header 4
#### Header 5
Header 1
Header 2
Header 3
Header 4
Header 5
Code can be embedded in documents with nice formatting using backticks (symbol below the tilda in the upper left of an American qwerty keyboard). For example, if you were to type the following (without the >)
>install.packages("lme4", repos = 'http://cran.us.r-project.org')
you could run that block in R and install the lme4 package. In the markdown document it would show up as:
install.packages("lme4", repos = "http://cran.us.r-project.org")
## ## The downloaded binary packages are in ## /var/folders/r5/l8t2qxpj3m1_gnlf6ys7fwdm0000gq/T//RtmpiqoAcq/downloaded_packages
You should try this with the knitr package [UPDATE: You will likely have to restart RStudio after installing and loading the knitr library because it changes options in RStudio]. knitr is a fantastic package for converting the R markdown file (.Rmd) into an HTML document. The design of knitr allows any input languages (e.g. R, Python and awk) and any output markup languages (e.g. LaTeX, HTML, Markdown, AsciiDoc, and reStructuredText). I find Markdown to be the easies language to use to create documents for coursework/assignments. knitr is dynamic, so it will run your code and print the results below it. The best part is if you get new data or find an error in your code, you just re-knit the file and it's updated a few seconds later.
In RStudio, once you install knitr a button shows up that you can click to knit the markdown file (produce your html document). When you click the Knit HTML button a web page will be generated that includes both content as well as the output of any embedded R code chunks within the document. You can embed an R code chunk like this:
## speed dist ## Min. : 4.0 Min. : 2 ## 1st Qu.:12.0 1st Qu.: 26 ## Median :15.0 Median : 36 ## Mean :15.4 Mean : 43 ## 3rd Qu.:19.0 3rd Qu.: 56 ## Max. :25.0 Max. :120
These will be embedded and run in the document, but you can also run single lines or blocks (chunks) of code in RStudio to make sure they work before knitting the document. You can also embed plots, for example:
This is great but after kniting you are left with an HTML document. What if you want a PDF or Word Document? There may be other ways to do this, but I use pandoc to covert the HTML file into other forms such as PDF or MS Word Documents. After installing pandoc, you use it via the command line. I use a Mac, so I just open the Terminal to get to my Bash Shell and
cd to the folder containing my document, then just run
pandoc Knitting_Beautiful_Documents_in_RStudio.md -o
and I have a PDF. Unfortunately, the pandoc default is to have huge margins that look ridiculous. To correct for that you can save a style file in the folder with the document you're converting. To do that you just create a text file with the line:
and save it as something like
margins.sty. Then in the command line you run
pandoc Knitting_Beautiful_Documents_in_RStudio.md -o
Knitting_Beautiful_Documents_in_RStudio.pdf -H margins.sty
Now when you view the PDF it should have 1 inch margins and look much nicer. That is about it for making attractive, dynamic documents using R, RStudio, knitr, and pandoc. It seems like a lot but after doing it once or twice it becomes very quick and easy. I have yet to use it but there is also a package pander, which allows you to skip the command line step and do the file conversion right in R (RStudio).
Using Markdown in RStudio with knitr is wonderful for creating reports, class assignments, and homework solutions (as a student, you'd really impress your instructor), but other people take it even further. Karthik Ram of rOpenSci fame has a great blog post of how to exend this system to include citations and bibliographies that allow you to ditch word.
For a nice Markdown reference list, check out this useful cheat sheet
Finally, if you want to see my Markdown code and everything that went into making this, you can find in my GitHub repository. Specifically, you can find the .Rmd, .md, margins.sty, and built PDF files.
[UPDATE: On a Mac R/RStudio/pandoc may have trouble finding your LaTeX distribution to use to build the PDF (even though using Markdown not LaTeX directly). A potential solution I found when building an R package was to specify the path to LaTeX: http://danieljhocking.wordpress.com/2012/12/15/missing-pdflatex/]
[UPDATE 2: From RProgramming.net I found a nice way to create a PDF without leaving R (calling pandoc from R)]
# Create .md, .html, and .pdf files knit("File.Rmd") markdownToHTML('File.md', 'File.html', options=c("use_xhml")) system("pandoc -s File.html -o File.pdf")

My single point made was that
My single point made was that this model works with the Kushnapup that was advertised here as well.
The Vepr, while nice, is a heavier model with more features and less availability for accessory modifications and higher cost of component parts and mags. Do you want a battle shotgun (style) that you can carry, dress out and afford the parts for? If not, spend $100 more on the start and $15-25 more per mag. I love all of my Saiga 12 shotguns. I tune them without an auto-plug to cycle Winchester Universal #7 2.75" shells with ease. The Veprs I have seen are like looking at a heavy sports cars that cost more when you want a track model that can be customized with more options available.
Question for those who buy Vepr 12 not Saiga 12:
Did you but something other than a Ruger 10/22 to trick out your plinker too?
This is not a deal any day of
This is not a deal any day of the week when you compare it to a Vepr 12. They are running $799 in LE/MIL configuration, they run everything, don't need to be converted, and are made in one of the premier factories in the world, Molot. I don't know why anyone would buy one of these, ever...
Unconverted IZ109 + Kushnapup
Unconverted IZ109 + Kushnapup ... about a $1k semi auto box fed bull pup. Yep, no reason at all... That and you obviously don't own a Saiga or a Vepr.
That's like saying that the
That's like saying that the Corolla that costs more than the Corvette is a good deal because it went on sale & the price came down closer to the Corvette's.
Maybe not the best example, & no disrespect intended to the Saiga - it's a fine product, but hopefully you're intelligent enough to understand.
Best example ever, lol. :)

Bullpup S12's can only be
Bullpup S12's can only be developed with an Unconverted IZ109. Veprs can't touch that. That plus the Vepr is still in stock. I wonder why that is???
So your entire argument is
So your entire argument is based on the assumption that every potential consumer would rather bullpup their shotgun, & your opinion is that no Vepr could "touch that."
Roger that.
So the Vepr's are in stock
So the Vepr's are in stock and that means they are not as desirable as a Saiga... Well we are on the 5th or 6th shipment from Molot of 1000 Vepr 12's in just the last couple years since they started offering them. The reason they are in stock now is because the demand has been so high that they have taken notice and been burning the midnight oil over in Russia making these things.
Saiga's on the other hand have been dwindling out for a while and they have only been bringing in small quantities.
Lastly, no one except you cares about cheap plastic bullpup S12's. That fad was so short lived it makes Psy seem like the "Beatles".
Vepr side folder and Vepr
Vepr side folder and Vepr Fixed stock in the gun safe. I would buy a 3rd, 4th, and 5th before this. Building a kushnapup is fine but, buying unconverted Saiga's for that purpose is a very niche market and would be better served saving money and having a higher quality factory firearm in the Vepr 12.
A lot of people see the Saiga's back in stock and might not know too much about them or know that the Vepr's offer them everything in a standard configuration for $100 more.
My Saiga 12 was a money pit that I spent way to much time getting to run right. In contrast the feeling of taking my Vepr out for the first time and it running flawlessness out of the box with every thing from Federal bulk to 00 Buck was amazing.
Ymmv, but for most people I don't think you can do better than a Vepr 12 for the price and quality.
... You are so right, they
... You are so right, they are out of stock! ;~}

7 in stock this time yesterday & now they are GONE.

Saiga's are going up and up in price. This price is actually pretty good for the time being. I have two saigas that I tricked out and what not, I love my saiga!
The Vepr 12 does look sick though
I have nothing against the
I have nothing against the Saiga, & I think that this would've been a great deal 2 months ago. In fact, if this deal was available in December I would've snatched one up in a heartbeat. That said, right now there are numerous vendors offering Vepr 12's for $799 & minimal shipping. So for an extra $100 the Vepr offers a "self-adjusting" gas system, a bolt that stays open on empty, pistol grip & forward trigger group, magwell, folding skeleton stock (must cut through a small weld), & a thicker milling. Only possible downside to the Vepr in my opinion is the relatively small list of vendors producing parts to customize the firearm compared to the Saiga. If I showed you a pic of my Vepr though, I promise it looks every bit as nasty as any Saiga you've seen.
So all that to say, this is definitely a good deal compared to what you would have paid a few months ago, but in my opinion, I think the Vepr (also available from Atlantic) is a MUCH better value.
Concern Kalashnikov - Do some

In his 2010 text, Developing Animals: Wildlife and Early American Photography, Matthew Brower considers the constructed nature of wildlife photography and what it tells us about historical understandings of human-animal relations. Brower is the curator of the University of Toronto Art Centre and a lecturer in museum studies in the Faculty of Information at the University of Toronto. Beginning with an analysis of early American photographs of taxidermy, his text examines the practice of "camera hunting" in the nineteenth century, the invention of the photographic blind and Abbott Thayer's use of photographs to make arguments about animal coloration and camouflage. Brower argues that examining these photographic practices illustrates how they construct a particular narrative of the relationship between animals and humans. Brower suggests that photos of perceived "wild animals" are staged to tell a particular story about the historical constitution of the animal and human-animal interaction.

Scallop Scampi with Peppers
From EatingWell: September/October 2011
Use a mixture of bell peppers for a colorful (and vitamin C-packed) scallop stir-fry. Pat the scallops dry with a paper towel—if they are wet they will spatter when added to the wok and make the stir-fry too wet. This stir-fry is excellent served over linguine or fettuccine.
Makes: 4 servings, about 1 cup each

- 1 pound dry sea scallops (see Note), patted dry
- 2 tablespoons peanut oil or canola oil, divided
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
- 2 medium bell peppers (mixed colors, if desired), cut into 1/4-by-2-inch strips
- 1 tablespoon capers, rinsed
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
- 3 tablespoons dry white wine
- Cut any larger scallops in half so all the pieces are about the same thickness.
- Heat a 14-inch flat-bottomed wok over high heat until a bead of water vaporizes within 1 to 2 seconds of contact. Swirl in 1 tablespoon oil. Carefully add the scallops in one layer. Cook undisturbed for 1 minute, letting them begin to sear. Add garlic and crushed red pepper and stir-fry until the scallops are opaque but not cooked through, about 1 minute. Transfer to a plate.
- Swirl the remaining 1 tablespoon oil into the wok, add bell peppers and stir-fry until they begin to soften, about 1 minute. Return the scallops and any juice to the wok. Sprinkle with capers, salt and pepper; swirl in wine. Stir-fry until the scallops are just cooked through and the peppers are tender-crisp, 1 to 2 minutes.
Tips & Notes
- Be sure to buy "dry" sea scallops. "Wet" scallops, which have been treated with sodium tripolyphosphate (STP), are not only mushy and less flavorful, but will not brown properly. Some scallops have a small white muscle on the side; remove it before cooking.

Question & Answers
Sky jump with fat pou
Hi, I've read that you can reach higher scores in sky jump if you play with a very fat pou. But how fat should pou be? And how can I make her that fat? I didn't manage to make her fat enough. Or is it just another joke?
Answer from: KirliaHM
Just feed her tons of food. Sometimes Pou will refuse to eat if you give the same food over and over, so try other foods. Eventually Pou will look like it has extra fat and. well, pou is fat :) When Pou is fat, she became heavier to control in sky jump (or at least that's what i felt), and it is pretty much depend on your comfortness to decide if it become easier or not. If you keep playing the sky jump Pou will eventually get thinner. So if you like fat Pou, you have to feed it again. Hope this helped! =))
Answer from: moonflower
If u feed ur pou loads, u will see hiim/her getting fater and strechting. It doesnt matter how fat, preferably afap (as fat as possible) then ull get a really high score! My high score is 578 an that was with fat pou! Hope this helps loads!xxx

Demolition Recommended At Ohio Uranium Plant Site
The federal government recommends demolishing over 200 buildings at the site of a former Cold War-era uranium plant in southern Ohio.
Prosecutors say Sekou Bayoh Kpoto took hundreds of dollars from people, then directed them to a Gahanna BMV office where Betina Young would issue them valid state ID cards and drivers licenses.
The Kasich Administration has chosen a new design for the state's license plate. What do you think of it?
Two weeks ago, the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles canceled about 42,000 vehicle registrations because the owners hadn't proven their identities with a driver's license, state ID card, or social security number. That move has hit undocumented immigrants especially hard. Some of them have actually left the state.
Ohio is shutting down one of its Bureau of Motor Vehicles branches in Franklin County. The agency had been issuing fake ID cards.

Report says FBI fumbled pre-9/11 chances

The Washington Post
WASHINGTON — The inability to detect the Sept. 11 hijacking plot amounted to a "significant failure" by the FBI and was caused in large part by "widespread and long-standing deficiencies" in the way it handled terrorism and intelligence cases, according to a new report released yesterday.
In one particularly notable finding, the report by Justice Department Inspector General Glenn Fine concluded that the FBI missed at least five chances to detect the presence of two of the suicide hijackers — Nawaf al Hazmi and Khalid al Mihdhar — after they first entered the United States in early 2000.
"While we do not know what would have happened had the FBI learned sooner or pursued its investigation more aggressively, the FBI lost several important opportunities to find Hazmi and Mihdhar before the Sept. 11 attacks," the report said.
Although many of the missteps surrounding Hazmi and Mihdhar have become well known, Fine's report adds significant new details about the FBI's role in fumbling the case. Previous documents, including the best-selling report by the independent Sept. 11 commission, focused more heavily on the CIA's failure to track the men after a terrorist summit meeting in Malaysia.
The FBI said in a statement that it agreed with many of Fine's conclusions but "has taken substantial steps to address the issues presented in the report."
"Today, preventing terrorist attacks is the top priority in every FBI office and division, and no terrorism lead goes unaddressed," the FBI said.
Fine's investigation was requested by FBI Director Robert Mueller shortly after the Sept. 11 attacks, but it has been held up for 11 months over classification and legal issues. It focuses on three major episodes prior to the Sept. 11 attacks: the missteps in tracking Hazmi and Mihdhar; the failure to connect al-Qaida operative Zacarias Moussaoui to the hijacking plot; and the handling of a July 2001 memo theorizing that al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden might be sending operatives to U.S. flight schools.
Although the memo from Phoenix FBI agent Kenneth Williams was proposed as "a theory rather than a warning or a threat," the report concludes that the bureau "failed to fully evaluate, investigate, exploit and disseminate information related to" the memo.
Fine's conclusions about Moussaoui are less clear, because most references to the case have been blacked out by court order. U.S. District Judge Leonie Brinkema, who is presiding over Moussaoui's prosecution in Alexandria, Va., blocked release of the full report because of objections from defense attorneys.
Some hints of Fine's conclusions are still evident in the censored version of the report, however. In one paragraph that clearly pertains to the Moussaoui case, the report says agents "did not receive adequate support ... from the field office or from FBI headquarters" and criticizes the FBI for "disjointed and inadequate review" of requests for secret warrants.
Previous investigations have found that Moussaoui's laptop and other belongings were not searched in the weeks after his arrest in Minneapolis because the FBI mistakenly believed it did not have enough evidence to get a warrant.
In the case of Hazmi and Mihdhar, the report said that the FBI missed at least five opportunities to possibly locate the pair after Mihdhar was first identified in connection with a Malaysian meeting of al-Qaida operatives.
Even after the FBI learned that the pair had re-entered the United States in August 2001, "the FBI did not pursue this as an urgent matter or assign many resources to it," the report found, noting that "it was given to a single, inexperienced agent without any particular priority."

Hours after Diddy formally announced his decision to undergo the rap alias "Swag" for an entire week, West Coast rapper Lil B has co-signed the music mogul's new name.
Not only impressed by the name change, Based God hopes to be the first to snag Swag for a collaboration.
Diddy is ready for another name change. Yesterday (May 19) the hip-hop mogul took to YouTube to announce his new moniker, "Swag." XXLMag.com reached out to Lil B, the man arguably responsible for the term's newfound popularity to find out his reaction to the news. "It's all good," the Based God said. "Diddy is my family and we finna get in the studio! I'mma have the first feature from Swag." (XXL Mag)
Late Thursday, Diddy released a video announcing his new alias.
"Check it out, so I decided I'm going to change my name for a week in honor of my comeback," Diddy revealed in a video. "Y'all know I've been known as Puff, Puffy, Puff Daddy, Diddy, P. Diddy, King Combs, earlier it was Sean Combs, and for a week, this week only, call me by my new name, 'Swag.' Check it out. My new name is Swag." (P Twitty TV)
After recently being named the wealthiest hip-hop entertainer by Forbes, Diddy downplayed his achievement.
"To be honest, on that list, I was on the cover of Forbes back in '98," Diddy explained in an interview. "I been on that list. I don't really get caught up into the list. I think people think that I have that money actually sitting at home in the basement…It's really like if I sold all my companies, and I take pride in [building] something as a black man that's worth that much…To everyone calling me for a loan today, I do not have that money today! … It helps inspire people and it shows the power of hip-hop." (MTV)
Lil B is currently putting together a new album called I'm Gay.
"I'm gonna do the most controversial thing in hip-hop," B said while performing at Coachella in Indio, California. "Y'all heard it hear first. And I'm gonna just show y'all that words don't mean sh*t. I'm gonna make an album called 'I'm Gay.' Now I'm gonna tell y'all why I'm the first person to do it in hip-hop and why y'all are the first people to know my reason…First of all, gay means happy. I like women, I love women, you feel me? But it just shows me, no matter what you do, live life, you only got one life to live, be happy. F*ck the hating." (YouTube)

im shocked that so many people dont want him back. for 2 mil a year he is a steal. the rangers might have a plethora of 3rd line players but they dont have many playoff monsters like jagr. he put up insane numbers against the devils and the penguins, teams that havent changed much in 2 years. a 38 year old jagr is still better than most 2nd and 3rd liners. jagr doesnt answer all the problems the team has but signing him cheap only helps.

Chair's Report
September 13, 2011
Senate Roster Report: There are currently 77 members of the Senate. There will be 93 when all seats are filled. There are 14 teaching faculty positions for departmental senators open and two administrative faculty positions. Therefore, currently a quorum of the Senate is 39 members. A Special Meeting of the Senate can be called by a petition of eight members. Identified Senators have received an email asking them to identify their preferences for committee assignments. Appointments will be made by Wednesday, September 14.
Appointments: David Granger accepted my invitation to serve as Past Chair. Chris Leary accepted my invitation to serve as Parliamentarian.
I will represent the Geneseo faculty at the planning meeting of the University Faculty Senate at the end of this week. This meeting is for planning the committee activities for the year. I am serving on the Awards and Programs committee. Gregg Hartvigsen is serving on Operation and, Maria Lima and Leigh O'Brien are on Diversity and Cultural Competence. University Faculty Senate Committees are open to all full-time faculty in SUNY. Please consider volunteering next spring when the call goes out for 2012-2013 committees.
I will join the Campus Governance Leaders (Senate Chairs, Faculty Presidents, etc.) in a two-day meeting concurrent with the University Faculty Senate meetings October 20-22 at Purchase College. We will have meetings to discuss issues that are impacting our campuses. Please let me know if you have something you would like to be part of these discussions.
Goals for the year: There are some specific, minor actions we need to take to clarify procedures and structures. For example, we have to match the description of the process for electing the Committee on Faculty Personnel to the process that has been used for several years (we now use emails in place of the letters required by the Constitution and therefore can shorten the timeline for the process.) There is other language that needs to be cleaned up in the Constitution.
We will also open up the agenda of Senate meetings to be more interactive and to engage other committees, task forces and other bodies of the College.
More strategically, we will have discussions about the very basis for governance, i.e. the structure and function of all advisory bodies involving faculty. By clarifying what faculty governance needs to do we will look at how Senate might be re-tasked or possibly restructured to carry out its functions effectively.
This could be a revolutionary year for governance at Geneseo. I look forward to the work we will do together.

Codemasters Studios is touting its new Neon game engine, stating that the upcoming Colin McRae game, Colin McRae: DIRT (known as DIRT: Colin McRae Off-Road in the US), will be using the all-new engine.
Today's update on the game engine explains why the next game in the series has taken so long to hit the shelves--Neon has been in production for 18 months.
Colin McRae Rally was released in 1998, and a series of sequels followed--but the last game, Colin McRae Rally 2005, was released more than two years ago.
DIRT will feature a range of off-road race events and more than 40 officially licensed cars from 12 categories, including Colin McRae's prototype R4 and Travis Pastrana's Subaru Impreza.
Colin McRae: DIRT is due in 2007 for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC.

A Visual Rebuttal to the Media Blackout?Submitted by Fed-Up on Fri, 03/30/2012 - 11:40
Is there a way we could visually demonstrate our numbers before the primaries? What if there were well-located, Saturday, simultaneous events that could be videoed? Then, we would at least have a minimal, visual conception of our numbers. If privacy is not a concern, people could sign a straw ballot to signal their voting intentions. These could be counted in a transparent way. It would be impossible to vote twice, because a person can't be two places at once. Perhaps a picture ID should be required to verify residency. A small donation to the campaign could be a vote that provides a receipt.
Sometimes I think the MSM's main function during an election is to make phony numbers seem real. We need some way to offset their assertions about our numbers-a visual rebuttal to the MSM.
