Today, the University of Rochester submitted a proposal to the Rochester Board of Education for the University to serve as the Educational Partnership Organization (EPO) for East High School, effective July 1, 2015. This proposal is currently under review by the Board of Education, with a December 31, 2014 deadline for submission to the New York State Department of Education.
Warner School alumna Amalia Dache-Gerbino '14 (PhD) was awarded the Association for the Study of Higher Education (ASHE) 2014 Bobby Wright Dissertation of the Year Award. She was honored with the award on Nov. 21 at the 39th Annual ASHE Conference that took place in Washington, D.C.
Warner School Professors Kevin Meuwissen and Jeffrey Choppin have received a one-year research grant from the Spencer Foundation to examine teaching candidates' experiences with and perceptions of edTPA initiation and its impact on their teacher preparation programs.
The University of Rochester will hold its first-ever Disability Studies Cluster Symposium on Friday, Nov. 14. The 2014 symposium, themed "Complicating Normalcy: Disability, Technology, and Society in the Twenty-First Century," is organized around the documentary film FIXED: The Science/Fiction of Human Enhancement.
Every summer, the Warner School of Education hosts a month-long Genesee Valley Writing Project (GVWP) workshop for teachers from all different levels, to discuss their approach to writing curriculum. As the teachers discuss ideas about how to teach their students more effectively and give each other feedback, they are also working on their own personal writing interests, which most of them can't find the time for during the school year.

As I wrote in today's photographic post on Afghanistan, John D. McHugh's multimedia series Six Months in Afghanistan offers some of the best visual insights into the military realities of that conflict.
McHugh, in a session chaired by Roger Tooth of The Guardian at London's Fontline Club last week, also provides a series of good insights into both the benefits and problems of producing his multimedia stories. You can see a 79 min video of this discussion here. The discussion deals with these issues from the 30 min mark onwards, and reveals how uncertain the political economy of multimedia is for news organisations in the UK. How to manage, produce, publicise and value multimedia is still being worked out project by project. The visual revolution for journalism is still very much in its infancy here.
[…] this context, photography has its work cut out. It has been the multimedia stories that are most effective at addressing the broader issues (see John D McHugh's series Six Months […]

Jewish Museum in Prague
curator: Pavla Máčová
The Photo Archive contains contemporary documentary photographs as well as historical images - approximately 65,000 negatives, slides and original photographs. The collection of historical documentary photos comprises a number of basic thematic units: collection items, the Central Jewish Museum, Jewish sites and the Holocaust. Photo-documentation of objects owned by the Museum has been carried out on an ongoing basis since 1945 and represents the most extensive unit, which is of particular significance to the Museum's specialist staff. Between 1942-1945, during the existence of the Central Jewish Museum, some 1,420 negatives documenting the Museum's work were taken. This group also includes negatives that record the activities of institutions where Jews worked under Nazi supervision during the occupation. The photographs of Jewish communities in Bohemia and Moravia bear witness to the existence of Jewish quarters from the time of the First Republic (1918-38) to the present and are also valuable material for the reconstruction of synagogues and Jewish cemeteries. The most valuable part of the photographic collection of Jewish sites is a group of large-format photographs by Zikmund Reach, which depicts the Jewish Town of Prague at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries just before it was rebuilt. The last set is connected with the theme of the Holocaust. Apart from scenes from Terezín and labour and concentrations camps, it also includes family snapshots of Czech Jews whose lives were devastated by Nazi persecution.
The oldest part of the collection comprises photographs of Czech Jews and Jewish personalities from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. In collaboration with the Photo Studio, an archive of high-quality digital photographs of the Museum's collections is gradually being developed and stored on CD-ROMs. The conditions for digital image processing are currently being streamlined and records of the entire photo collection are being kept on computer as part of long-term programme. In connection with the relocation of the archive to a new depository in February 2001, a review of storage conditions has been launched. Apart from digitization and modern technology, more focused attention will be devoted to the oldest historical photographs in the collection with respect tot he documentation of the life of Bohemian and Moravian Jews in the 20th century.
The Photo Archive is being constantly replenished with new photo documentation. It brings together materials that document the activities of the Museum, in particular Prague-based and regional exhibitions and various social events. In addition, it includes a small video library with documentary films on Jewish themes.

Ex-hitting coach Greg Walker says 2011 Sox were doomed from start
BY JOE COWLEY firstname.lastname@example.com February 15, 2012 9:40PM
Greg Walker
Updated: March 17, 2012 10:24AM
If there was an ideal location for a self-proclaimed ''good ol' boy'' to get some R & R, a winter in Georgia should have done the trick.
But former White Sox hitting coach Greg Walker is learning that some wounds take longer to heal than others.
Walker never has been one to pull punches, but what he said in a phone interview Wednesday was as candid as anyone has been about what derailed the Sox in recent seasons. His assessment is also a red flag as the Sox move forward.
Walker insists the 2011 season never should have unfolded the way it did because most of the staff should have moved on after 2010.
''You can dissect it any way you want, blame it on whoever you want, but it was not a positive situation for anyone involved,'' Walker said. ''We talked about it. There was a feeling in the clubhouse and the coaches' office that we should have never been back for 2011. After 2010, it was obvious that the first sign of adversity was going to make things bad.
''When it gets off track like it did and you have more going on than the normal team, it's too hard to overcome. The atmosphere the past few years reached the point where winning baseball could no longer be played, no matter which players were brought in.''
Walker took it a step further and said the idea that the players weren't affected by the circus atmosphere — whether it was former manager Ozzie Guillen and general manager Ken Williams sparring, Williams and members of the coaching staff quarreling or the coach-on-coach distrust that existed — just wasn't true.
All the questions about Adam Dunn's mechanics, Alex Rios' passion and Gordon Beckham's overthinking were just excuses. The real reason the Sox finished where they did last season despite a $127 million payroll was because the dysfunctional atmosphere proved too big an obstacle for them to overcome.
''I hope all those guys bounce back, and I really think they have a chance to,'' Walker said. ''Most of the problems that went on last year weren't baseball-related, and it was tough on the players. We hit that first roadblock, and everyone suffered. We all should have seen
it coming.''
Sox fans were promised a dynasty after the 2005 World Series, and Williams said they needed that to capture the city. Seven years later, all they have captured is irrelevance entering spring training.
Who's to blame? Everyone, just like Walker said.
The Sox dressed up a
$127 million pig under the premise they were ''all in,'' all the while knowing they would be a sinking ship once the first wave hit.
And while a majority of Sox fans just want to move forward, what are they moving forward to?
Sure, Guillen is gone and managing the Miami Marlins. If feeling like he was the main culprit makes you sleep better at night, have at it. And Walker is the hitting coach of the Atlanta Braves, so he is no longer around.
But is the house really clean? Most of the roster is back, and so are Williams and pitching coach Don Cooper. The players have trust issues with both. What happens when there's some adversity in April?
Walker couldn't answer that. Then again, it's not his problem anymore.
''I still fight with my emotions,'' Walker said. ''It was such a bad ending. I know that I will always consider [Sox chairman] Jerry Reinsdorf like a father to me. I will never be able to repay him for what he's done.
''I had the right to come back this year if I wanted to. And while Jerry's always had my back and I love [new manager] Robin [Ventura], I knew there were too many circumstances that told me to move on. There are some fresh wounds that still need to heal, and part of that is moving to another organization.''
You're right, Sox fans. You shouldn't care anymore that Walker and Guillen are gone.
But you should be concerned about what remains.

Portrait of a Young Nobleman
The left and bottom edges of this panel have been trimmed; originally all of the sitter's right hand would have been included. The face is highly worked, but other areas are thinly sketched, suggesting that the work may be unfinished. The restricted palette and asymmetrical pose give an air of tension and melancholy.
The sitter in this portrait by Parmigianino has short hair, which was fashionable from the 1530s. He wears a travelling cloak, a black silk jerkin with a white linen shirt. The bulk of the cloak contrasts with the delicate ties of his chemise collar and the decorative detailing around the cuffs.
Typical of Parmigianino are the refined finish of the face, the subtle modelling of the flesh using cool greys for areas in shadow, and the definition of the white collar in full and half-light, caught with a few accurate strokes. The setting of the head against a low horizontal was a device favoured by the artist as early as c.1523. The door frame anchors the man's figure, which is set at an unnervingly distorted angle to us. His head is turned slightly to one side, his shoulders are at different heights and his right arm pushed towards us without clearly defining the space between viewer and sitter. The restricted colour range, with a dominance of blacks and greys encouraging the viewer to focus on the sitter's pale face caught in an intense light, give the portrait an air of tension and melancholic introspection.
The influence of the portraits of the Florentines Bronzino, Pontormo and Rosso Fiorentino is evident in this painting. The relation of head to shoulders and outstretched right arm and the cropped locks of hair recall the antique sculpture 'Amor stringing a Bow' (Pinacoteca Capitolina, Rome), which has been considered a source for Parmigianino's 'Cupid Carving his Bow' of c.1530-34 (Kunsthistorishes Museum, Vienna). Parmigianino may have seen the version of the sculpture in Rome, or possibly that in the Grimani collection, Venice: he may have travelled to Venice in 1530, but many antique sources seen in Rome have been traced in both his paintings and drawings. For example, the tight folds of the sleeve in the current painting, and the way in which the sitter wears his cloak, have been likened to a toga. It is tempting to suggest that the artist was inspired by antique art in general when he portrayed this young man, even if no specific source can now be traced.
There is some consensus among scholars in dating this portrait to Parmigianino's Bolognese period 1527-30: the composition has at various times been compared to 'The Mystic Marriage of St Catherine' of c.1525-6 (National Gallery, London), the handling of the paint and face to features in the 'Virgin and Child with St Margaret, St Jerome, St Benedict and an Angel' of c.1528-9 (Pinacoteca Nazionale, Bologna) and the 'Virgin and Child with the Young Baptist, Mary Magdalene and Saint Zachariah' of c.1530-33 (Uffizi). Copertini, however, suggested a later dating, likening the face to that of 'St Stephen in the Virgin and Child with St Stephen, St John the Baptist and a donor' of c.1539-40 (Gemäldegalerie, Dresden).

Loretta Maine
Psycho-intense singer-songwriter Loretta Maine makes Courtney Love look well-balanced. This pill-popping, booze-abusing, bunny-boiling car-crash of a rock star has been the most memorable creation of talented character comic Pippa Evans to date, and is now promoted to both her own show and her own band, Dog Vagina.
Loretta Maine tour dates
Benny Boot
Benny Boot has been performing on the UK stand-up comedy circuit for 6 years. He is considered by many comedians as a wonderful stand-up artist to watch. Boot delivers his jokes in a unique style on a variety of strange topics. His engaging persona and material keeps the laughter rolling through the entire show and is guaranteed to bring any audience undone.
'He's got a keen instinct for the joke, an imaginative turn of phrase and an ability to find an offbeat angle to whatever he chooses to talk about' (Chortle).
Benny Boot tour dates
Prince Abdi
A relative newcomer who has the material and confidence of a full time comic. He has a lovely style in his delivery - pacy, upbeat and infectious - that makes the audience warm to him. Set pieces such as his Bollywood and Nollywood reconstruction capitalise on that energy well.
Prince Abdi tour dates
Simon Feilder
A rising star on the comedy circuit. 2010 saw Simon chosen by Bushmills Brothers as their beacon of wit and banter in everyday settings for their online campaign 'Best of Friends'.
Simon also lent his wild enthusiasm and vocal talents to BAFTA-winning kids'
show Yo Gabba Gabba for NickJr and the BAFTA-nominated Jim Jam And Sunny
for CITV, plus appeared in Neon Candy for Hat Trick Productions.
'Amiable, eccentric, self-deprecating... delightfully nutty' (LA Weekly)
'Compelling to watch... Unashamedly feelgood!' (Chortle).

Leveling the Playing Field
One small publisher keeps up with the ŌĆ£big boysŌĆØ by focusing on the reader.
Big publishers have a natural advantage over smaller competition. Increased purchasing power, data collection and cross-marketing opportunities are a few of the perks of having multiple magazines in different markets. The ability to experiment and make mistakes is a less tangible, but equally important leg up.
Even single-title publishers can compete with them now though. Raw size advantages are minimized on the digital side, while the benefits of scale in print publishingŌĆöthough still realŌĆömake up a smaller piece of the business.
Premier Media Holdings is one of those small publishers thatŌĆÖs been able to punch above its weight. Peter Sprague, the companyŌĆÖs chairman, attributes the success to one thing: focus on the reader.
ŌĆ£If youŌĆÖre not reader centric, youŌĆÖre not doing the job,ŌĆØ he says. ŌĆ£Editors have to converse with their audience.ŌĆØ
The company launched Premier Guitar, an enthusiast title for guitar players, in 2007 as a digital-first entity. With a physical circulation between 20,000 and 25,000, print has always been an important component, Sprague says, but digital production was critical from the beginning.
Premier recommitted to digital this summer, redesigning both the magazine and website. Year-over-year traffic has jumped more than 25 percent as a result, hitting 4 million total impressions a week. And about 35 percent of that traffic is now coming from smartphones and tablets, up 200 percent from 2012. ItŌĆÖs carried over to sales tooŌĆö35 percent of PremierŌĆÖs ad revenue is from digital.
Reader Feedback
Constant tweaking and reevaluation were part of the plan as the Premier gained a foothold in a crowded legacy market; reader feedback was made a priority.
In exchange for equipment giveaways and discount offers, the brand gets to take the temperature of more than 80,000 of its readers with its PG Perks program. Coupled with third-party market universe studies and original surveys, Premier keeps a close eye on its readership.
Responses strongly backed the siteŌĆÖs content, but readers were underwhelmed with its functionality and design. They had trouble finding the content, and when they did, they felt it could have been presented more effectively.
Using that feedback as a backdrop, SpragueŌĆÖs team established two priorities for the relaunch.
The first, responsive design, would build on the mobile-optimized site strategy Premier Guitar had already developed. Mobile traffic was growing, but delivery was inconsistent. Readers reported different experiences depending on the platform they were using. Responsive design would fix that, snapping the site to fit whichever device it was viewed on.
The second priority was building a navigation structure that would accommodate the editorial philosophy. Though they were churning out fresh content several times a day, news updates were being sent to secondary landing pages. Meanwhile, magazine articles took up prime position on the home pageŌĆöall month long.
ŌĆ£We publish by the moment, but the old site was magazine-centric,ŌĆØ Sprague says. ŌĆ£Visually, it looked like we published by the month. [We wanted] to, not only visually, but to actually, provide moment-to-moment information to our readers, as opposed to overwhelming them with a monthŌĆÖs worth of content all at once.ŌĆØ
Fresh content is now front and center on the new site, with a similar experience presented across all platforms.
The Place of Print
Print is one area Sprague admits large publishers still maintain an advantage. Their scale gives them purchasing power in paper and printing that smaller companies just canŌĆÖt match.
But while Premier gives all of its content away for free onlineŌĆöincluding the digital versions of its magazinesŌĆöitŌĆÖs able to recoup the costs of producing a physical magazine by charging. Subscriptions go for $24.95 annually or $39.95 for two yearsŌĆöand they donŌĆÖt have to give any away at a discount.
Sprague is looking at the print product differently than most. Its not intended for all of his readers. In fact, itŌĆÖs only made for a few.
ŌĆ£In our view, the sustainability of print is as a collectible for ŌĆśtactileŌĆÖ consumers,ŌĆØ he says. ŌĆ£WeŌĆÖre constantly striving to have an upscale, coffee-table appearance.ŌĆØ
ThatŌĆÖs why increasing the size and improving paper stock were part of the recent magazine redesign. The goal was to provide a quality experience for fewer readers, even if that costs a little more.┬Ā
For Sprague, the one advantage the ŌĆ£big guysŌĆØ still hold is getting smaller.┬Ā

Amscreen hopes to replicate TV and online metrics with Audience Assured Advertising
Amscreen has launched Audience Assured Advertising (AAA) across its digital out-of-home network, a metric it hopes will become a new standard in digital out-of-home accountability.
Amscreen: launches AAA offering
Amscreen claims that the AAA application is a response to the demand for more accountability and transparency from outdoor media. It is designed to leverage the new levels of customer information able to be gathered by Amscreen's digital screens.
The triple-A campaigns offer advertisers the chance to purchase against several different demographics – more akin to TV or online advertising – with four main segments at launch: All Adults, Men, 15-34s and 35-64s. Each audience is traded purely on impacts, with fixed cost per thousands for each.
Once a campaign is live, it can receive regular AAA Health Checks; if the initial audience predictions are correct, the campaign is left untouched. Should the campaign fall behind schedule, additional locations or hours can be added to ensure full campaign delivery.
Amscreen's new AAA application also promises full post-campaign analysis to help planners and marketers assess the campaign and optimise future activity.
Jamie Lindsay, managing director of Amscreen, said: "We've already paved the way in accountability. We were one of the first media owners to plan against EPOS data and consumer behaviours.
"Now it's time for the next step. We've invested heavily in OptimEyes technology and we are now launching the practical application of that technology with Audience Assured Advertising (AAA).
"As well as the live data, one of the exciting areas is the information available after launch. For many media owners, the last day of a campaign is just that, the last day, but not for AAA campaigns; for them, it's merely the beginning. Once a campaign has run its course, it undergoes a full review, the details of which are sent directly to your inbox."
The AAA application is possible because of Amscreen's cameras in its screens, which have a viewing distance of 4.5 metres. It is claimed that they are capable of tracking up to 150 individuals at any one time.
Amscreen also claims that individuals are only registered as one view if they are calculated to have looked directly at the screen, with the promise "OptimEyes registers viewers, not looks".
The company already includes screens in 450 Tesco petrol stations, with a weekly reach of more than five million adults.
Lindsay said: "Others may have dabbled in facial detection and audience analysis, but we are the first to do it at scale."

Oceana Expeditions Show 28 Ocean Areas in Need
Every year, our research vessel, the Oceana Ranger, explores new areas of the ocean and collects scientific data – and incredible photos! -- to help protect vulnerable marine habitats.
This week, our colleagues in Europe presented their findings to an environmental rule-making body in the Northeast Atlantic, and we're hopeful that it will lead to exciting new ocean protection measures.
Europe's Convention for the Protection of the Marine Environment of the North-East Atlantic (OSPAR) offers guidelines about threatened species and habitat types that should be protected. However, these principles rely on old and incomplete data, so countries have had trouble using them effectively.
Although Norway, the UK, and Germany have already taken steps to explore and protect their seafloor communities, Spain and Portugal have had much less information about their oceans and so have been less active in preserving it.
But thanks to our expedition findings, that might change. Oceana presented OSPAR with findings about coral gardens, deep sea sponges and seapen communities from our expeditions in the Northeast Atlantic Ocean. In total, our scientists presented 28 previously unknown areas that have these types of habitats.
These habitats are home to some of the most diverse and unique communities in the oceans. Creating marine protected areas to preserve them can go a long way in keeping the oceans and everything that lives in them healthy.
Here's hoping that today's presentation will pave the way for both continued scientific study and additional protections.

Victory for Seamounts and Deep-sea Corals
Fantastic news from the international negotiations we told you about last week: the talks concluded on Friday with conservation measures that will protect more than 16.1 million square miles of seafloor habitat in the North Pacific Ocean from bottom trawling and other bottom contact gear.
Delegates also concluded negotiations on a new treaty. Once signed and ratified, it will establish a new fishery management organization charged with sustainably managing North Pacific Ocean fisheries.
Bottom trawls are massive weighted nets that drag along the ocean floor, destroying anything in their path, including ancient coral forests, gardens of anemones and entire fields of sea sponges. Today's bottom trawlers go deeper and farther from shore than they could ever reach before, into high seas areas populated with slow-growing deep-sea fish and corals that are especially slow to recover from trawling. Nets can be 200 feet wide and 40 feet high, weighing as much as 1,000 pounds and reaching depths of more than 5,000 feet.

Victory In Chile Against Coal-Fired Power Plant
We've been working in Chile to protect its incredible coastline from a proposed coal-fired power plant that would threaten Punta de Choros, home to amazing wildlife including endangered blue whales and Humboldt penguins. In recent days, grassroots opposition to the power plant grew after the power plant received its environmental permit, with peaceful demonstrations that were ultimately dispersed with tear gas and water cannons as well as a massive outpouring of criticism from Chileans online.
So it is with great satisfaction that I report that Chilean President Sebastian Piñera has announced he has persuaded Suez Energy not to build its power plant near Punta de Choros. In addition, he asked his cabinet to review all the industrial projects that produce environmental damage being considered in the country to see whether they could affect protected areas.
This is an incredible victory for Chileans, 94 percent of whom opposed the power plant in a recent poll. Against the odds, we changed a formal government decision, and the amazing marine ecosystem of Punta de Choros will remain protected.
Andy Sharpless is the CEO of Oceana.
Sea Lion vs. Octopus
National Geographic has captured incredible footage of a sea lion battling a large octopus in Australia (spoiler alert: the sea lion prevails.) To get the footage, the hungry sea lion was equipped with a GPS tracker and a crittercam.
The project, led by South Australian Research and Development Institute, is helping researchers learn more about where and how sea lions feed, which will ultimately help in protecting key habitat for the creatures. Plus, it's just a really cool video. Check it out:

Dear Friends,
Land-grant universities established by the Morrill Act 150 years ago, opened college doors to all Americans.
The University of Idaho is a proud member of the land-grant tradition, which has played a pivotal role in advancing Idaho's economic and social future for more than 123 years. Here are a few examples.
This university leads our state in graduation rates – which are comparable with our peer land- grant institutions nationwide. A significant number of our freshman -- 81 percent -- stay for their sophomore year, which means higher graduation rates. We've also continued to excel at preparing our students, especially in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) fields. In 2010, 33 percent of the degrees we awarded were in STEM fields, which is the highest in the state and higher than most of our national peers.
In other ways, we're very different. We rank third among our peer institutions in enrolling low-income students, and we attract far more first-generation college students -- nearly 33 percent of our undergraduates. This means we must continue to excel at what we do best – providing a student-centered, engaged education that meets the needs of all our students. And although we strive to drive efficiencies in what we do, quality educational experiences require the investment of new resources.
At the same time, we strive to make our university accessible to all qualified students. Having financial aid available to students is one important factor and our financial aid access program is a prime example of our efforts in this area. We continue to increase our institutionally funded, need-based, access grants. By fall 2013, we'll provide needy new Idaho students more than $4 million in financial support from university resources. That's a nearly 48 percent increase – or $2.7 million – more than the previous year. However, it is not just needy students who receive aid. Many of our students secure additional financial support based on merit, grants and loans.
We are diligently working to improve productivity and cut operating costs to drive college costs down as low as possible. Which helps to explain why we're able to offer life-changing educational experiences equal to or greater than our national counterparts and for far less. This year, tuition for full-time, degree-seeking undergraduates was about 75 percent of our peers' averages.
While we seek to keep costs as low as possible and counter forces related to inflation and regulation, there is no skirting the fact that the overhead to retain quality people and programs continues to rise. To continue providing the quality transformational education our students deserve and to meet our financial obligations, we asked our Board of Regents on Wednesday for a 6.1 percent increase in student tuition – about $356 per in-state undergraduate. Only three states have lower rates, including Utah and Wyoming.
I'd like to express my deep thanks to the Board for its confidence in and support of our efforts to meet our obligations. We also appreciate new investments in our university by the state legislature.
The University of Idaho will carry forward its mission to spark bright tomorrows for our great state. The launch of our capital campaign next week is a prime example of our bold belief that the University of Idaho must lead the way. This effort aims to bring in $225 million in investments sure to dramatically advance our university in ways that government funding cannot.
I'm proud that we have retooled in ways that best serve our students – they must always take priority.
Together we're inspiring futures!

Engineering Design EXPO Showcases Student Innovation. The University's Engineering Design EXPO -- the Northwest's largest and longest-running interdisciplinary initiative showcasing students' engineering and technological innovations – will be held next week with a new distinction from the National Academy of Engineering. The NAE recently selected the EXPO as one of 29 examples nationally that demonstrates successful and continuing programs that infuse real-world experiences into engineering education. This recognition is additional proof of the distinctiveness and significance of this senior capstone experience and EXPO. Every U-Idaho engineering graduate participates in a senior capstone design course before heading to graduate school or into the workforce. This process challenges Idaho engineering students to tackle real-world issues with the help of industry partners. This year's EXPO will feature 57 student capstone design projects ranging from customized audio integration while riding a motorcycle to an environmentally friendly bridge and stream design to evaluating water softening technology. Past winners have enjoyed marketplace success. For example, a recent project is saving The Boeing Co. millions of dollars in production costs. Five U-Idaho engineering students created a prototype that accurately sets the zero-point on the head of cutting mills. Boeing engineers refined and installed the device in its facilities worldwide.
Business Plan Team Takes Fifth at Rice University Contest with New Idaho Potato Process. A University of Idaho food scientist's invention with the potential to create healthier processed potato products helped propel a student business plan team to a fifth-place finish in a field of 1,600 global entries in the Rice University Business Plan Competition. U-Idaho's team snared $25,000 in prizes. U-Idaho students Gaylene Anderson and Jacob Pierson competed in the contest Rice University bills as the world's richest. This year's prizes topped $1.55 million. The U-Idaho team finished among the six finalists from 42 teams invited to Houston for two days of grilling by 250 judges. The proposed business is built on U-Idaho food science professor Kerry Huber's invention. For lovers of potato snack foods and restructured fries (think Pringles potato crisps), Huber's patented process offers potato ingredients with high amounts of resistant starch that can help lower a person's glycemic index response, improve insulin levels, and lower fat and cholesterol levels. For those with Type 2 diabetes or allergies to corn or wheat products, this new potato variety could open the doors to a wider range of food products. FORTUNE magazine covered the competition and will feature the winners, teams and competition in its May 7 issue and on CNNMoney.com.
Opening of New Facility Marks an Extraordinary Time for the College of Engineering. Thanks to the generosity and foresight of College of Engineering donors, the doors to the John C. Wahl (JCW) thinkTANK are now open. This cutting-edge space provides a culturally enriching environment that helps creativity and learning to flourish. The addition of the JCW thinkTANK is one of the most important accomplishments of the college this decade. Ron Olson '58 not only chairs the $2 million campaign, he and his wife, Barbara, also are supporting the project financially with a $35,000 pledge that will be matched with funds from The Boeing Company. Ron, a retired Boeing executive, has a distinguished history of volunteer leadership with the University of Idaho's College of Engineering. He was instrumental in making the Engineering Physics Building campaign a success in the 1990s. Also, he has served many years on the College of Engineering Advisory Board and has judged the Annual Engineering Design EXPO. The official ribbon cutting ceremony for the JCW thinkTANK will be April 26 at 3:30 p.m. in the Janssen Engineering Building, in conjunction with this year's EXPO
and the Inspiring Futures: Invest in the University of Idaho campaign kickoff celebration. For more information on giving to the College of Engineering, contact Mary Lee Ryba at (208) 755-4916 or firstname.lastname@example.com or Nat Reynolds at (208) 724-0643 or email@example.com.

Final Fantasy XIII-2 ($59.99, Amazon) is out for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. With this sequel, Square Enix set out to right the wrongs of the previous game, namely tunnel vision level design, off-kilter pacing, and a lack of player immediacy. But this new one promises to be a different beast. Let's find out together if that's true. Instead of playing, finishing the game and then posting my final review I will chronicle my time with it. This will be different from my typical reviews. The format will be looser, a bit more free-form. It should be fun! So let's dive in.
The game opens immediately, without a need to install anything. Thank goodness. More and more it seems console games resemble PC games, in that they require some ridiculous lengthy pre-install. Not XIII-2. It's starting up all quick-like!
So, the opening cutscene. Director Motomu Toriyama's name shows up and I cringe a bit. The 3rd Birthday, in which he had a large hand, was a harrowing experience. Some things are tough to shake off. And this game involves time travel, too, so my guard is up. Way up.
Okay, we see a dude putting a girl, presumably dead, into water. Shades of Final Fantasy VII here. The same dude also has the Soulcalibur apparently. His big sword has a big eye in it, I mean, what else could it be?
Theme Song: CHARICE. I don't think this is the original theme song. The last game's theme was replaced with "My Hands" by Leona Lewis. I don't think it really fit what was going on in the game (not that I could explicitly tell what was going on in the game), and it was full of cheese. I don't know why Square felt the need to switch out the better theme song for something else. They didn't do that for "Melodies of Life" or "Suteki da ne", right? I dunno, maybe it's a licensing thing. And hey, I'm passing judgment on a song I didn't even hear yet. Maybe it's great!
OK, that was a neat intro. Full of oohs and aahs and all that anti-gravity goodness from Advent Children.
Oh, all right. We're at the title screen. Pretty!
Hey, a Beginner's Primer. It details what happened previously on Final Fantasy XIII! Maybe the story will make sense this time. Hm. Actually, this primer brings back fond memories of my early moments of the game. The beginning of the game was really good! We were thrown right into the action alongside characters with interesting motivations, primarily Lightning and Hope. There was great music in the Gapra Whitewood…
By Chapter 6 of this primer — about halfway through the game — I'm reminded just how little story there is stretched across FFXIII. It turned out to be a very poorly paced game. And Sazh's threatened suicide was pretty silly. Oh, Jihl! That Baroness from G.I. Joe-looking girl was a wasted character. Nope, this primer didn't help me. Things happened in that story, well, just because.
Time to start a new game. It detects my save data from FF XIII! It says there will be new extras and new goodies to find in-game. I wonder what they are?
WHOA. Autosave!? Save ANYWHERE? This is indeed a new and exciting universe.
Here's the actual intro. Oh. It's the same thing I watched before, only with dialogue. Guess I could've skipped that earlier intro movie. The SoulCalibur-swingin' dude casts Meteor! Cool! He's named Caius! And he TRANSFORMS! Whooaa. I'm grinning like an idiot now. And finally playing! I skip the tutorial and go into battle. It's basic stuff, nothing complicated. I just Auto-battle and mash X until I win. I notice the great music and raise the volume.
Quick Time Events pop up and I roll my eyes a bit. They're easy to pull off. I wonder what happens if I fail to do any, but I go through with them anyway. I miss the last one on purpose, but nothing seems to change, I still win. The characters' acrobatics are very reminiscent of Advent Children.
Another battle in the air and again, it's easy-peasy. It's the very beginning of the game, so it gets a pass. There's more cool-looking story stuff, but I have no idea who's what or what's going on. I know Lightning obviously, she's there in Valhalla looking a lot like Lenneth from the Valkyrie Profile games: armor, feathers, exposed thighs and all. We meet Noel suddenly and Mog the moogle, who Lightning just kind of pulls out of nowhere. I like the contrast between super-serious Lightning and super-deformed cutesy Mog.
Lightning gives Noel his mission: take Mog, find Serah, bring her to Valhalla. Nice and simple. Noel's a good sport and he takes the moogle and his mission and doesn't ask any questions. Then a METEOR strikes! You want a FF7 remake? You got it right here!
More story stuff. We meet Serah and a few of those NORA losers from the last game. And I explore the first Final Fantasy town in HD. The seaside location's pretty, and I really like the crystallized Cocoon in the distance, but exploring this first town is a bit underwhelming. Serah can jump, but she can't jump anywhere cool even though there are plenty of spots that look jumpable. Houses? Can't go in them except one! I wanna look around and explore! At least there are NPCs here. They're very talkative and the voice acting's pretty good so far. The music is fantastic so far. Granted I only heard maybe three or four tracks.
Eventually I get to fighting bad guys. It feels good. The battle system is very similar to Final Fantasy XIII except random encounters are back. Monsters just pop out of nowhere and then the Mog Clock counts down from green to yellow to red. Bash the bad guy while it's green, you get boosts like Haste. Bash 'em while it's yellow, a normal battle occurs. Red: dead. Well, no, but you get debilitated somewhat.
I like the return of random battles. It keeps me on my toes and the Mog Clock reminds me of Persona 3's approach to engaging battles. Hit an enemy, you get initiative. The enemy hits you and they get the upper hand. Makes sense.
And what's this? Does the game have a sense of humor?! As I make my way through the area outside the village, Gadot, the biggest NORA doof, shows up and acts all tough around Noel because he's not from around there. A LIVE TRIGGER pops up. It's a little dialogue event that stops the action and asks me how I want to respond. It gives me four choices. I ask Gadot "Aren't you the boss?" and the big galoot acts all bashful and embarrassed and runs away. Fun, silly stuff.
I get up to the first real boss, a beast named Gogmagog that kind of resembles Anima from Final Fantasy X. It's another easy victory. So far all battles have been. But hey. Beginning of the game.
So far, I'm liking Noel. He seems like a reasonable lad even though he's from a bleak future. He's not whining about anything and he's all about business. I like how focused he is and he's not brusque either. Serah, so far, has done little to annoy me. I approve of her new role as main character. It's nice to have a leading lady who actually asks questions and seems interested in what's going on instead of blindly following the orders of the men around her, and depending on LIVE TRIGGERS she can be as clueless or snarky as we please. She also wields a moogle that can turn into a bow-and-arrow and a sword at will. That's cool.
Paradigms from Final Fantasy XIII return with a few tweaks. Now I can fine-tune them to target single enemies or wide swaths of them. I don't find a reason to actually do that yet. The Crystarium returns as well, though it's really different. Instead of a skill tree for each class — Ravager, Commander, Medic, etc. — there's a single skill path for each character, so I can build Serah or Noel into any kind of class or mix of classes that I want. Spiffy!
That's all for now! I'm early in and it's a promising start. Stay tuned for the Final Fantasy XIII-2 Diaries: Part Two!

Stockton stays in magazineŌĆÖs top tier of colleges
Written by Steve Prisament Tuesday, September 10, 2013 01:57 pm
|< Prev
|Next >
GALLOWAY ŌĆō Richard Stockton College has remained in the top tier of Best Regional Colleges and Universities of the North, rated at 60 out of 139 public and private Northern schools in the U.S. News and World ReportŌĆÖs annual edition of ŌĆ£AmericaŌĆÖs Best Colleges.ŌĆØ
New JerseyŌĆÖs Distinctive College is also ranked as one of the top 15 public schools in the North, at No. 14 by U.S. News, one of the nationŌĆÖs top independent college and university rankings. Only the top 15 public colleges and universities in a region are rated in the report.
This is the sixth consecutive year in which Stockton has placed in the first tier. Stockton is ranked with schools offering both undergraduate and masterŌĆÖs programs in the northern region of the U.S. Another 42 colleges and universities in the North were in the second tier.
The annual report considers factors including graduation and retention rates, assessment by peers, faculty resources, student selectivity, financial resources and alumni giving.
ŌĆ£It is truly gratifying that Stockton is again recognized as a top-tier institution for the sixth consecutive year,ŌĆØ Stockton President Herman J. Saatkamp Jr. said.
ŌĆ£StocktonŌĆÖs reputation for small classes - taught by more full-time faculty than youŌĆÖll find at any other public college in New Jersey - has attracted an increasing number of full-time undergraduates,ŌĆØ Saatkamp said. ŌĆ£The collegeŌĆÖs flat-rate tuition enables students to take more courses for the money and graduate more quickly, saving thousands of dollars and ultimately improving graduation rates.ŌĆØ
ŌĆ£Best of all, in a move that U.S. News and World Report could not have anticipated, Stockton has held the line on costs this year, with no increases in tuition or fees,ŌĆØ the president said.
ŌĆ£WeŌĆÖve had a meteoric rise from low tiers to the highest,ŌĆØ Saatkamp said, noting that the college was in the fourth tier in 2003 and the third in 2005. ŌĆ£Where exactly we are in the tier each year will always fluctuate based on both external and internal influences.ŌĆØ
ŌĆ£However, weŌĆÖre confident Stockton is moving in the right direction with a new Unified Science Center, $54 million in state bond funds earmarked for new facilities, a strong scholarship fund and a growing graduate program,ŌĆØ he said. ŌĆ£In the past year, we opened three new instructional sites in the region and had a record number of graduates - 1,933 received bachelorŌĆÖs degrees, 161 received masterŌĆÖs and post baccalaureate degrees and 39 received doctorates. WeŌĆÖre looking forward to another successful year.ŌĆØ
Stockton was cited in August by the college guide, Public Colleges of Distinction, for its high-quality teaching, students who are engaged with the community, graduates who succeed and an exceptional campus atmosphere.
Stockton was also named one of the ŌĆ£Best in the NortheastŌĆØ in August by The Princeton Review, an education services company widely known for its test prep programs and college and graduate school guides.

Man charged with robbing estranged girlfriend
A Philadelphia man faces charges after he allegedly assaulted his ex-girlfriend in the parking lot of a Dover Walmart, then tried to run away from police while carrying a handgun.
The argument, apparently over money, began in the back seat of a car after the two had been given a ride.
State Police say Keith Denmark struck the woman in the head, dragged her from the vehicle, pinned her to the ground and ran off with her cell phone.
Police spotted Denmark in the parking lot of a propane dealer, and during the pursuit he pulled a 45-caliber handgun from his pants and threw it under a vehicle.
Denmark was arrested without further incident.
He faces charges including robbery, weapons offenses and resisting arrest.

Document Type Master's Dissertation Author Du Toit, P J URN etd-10222004-150449 Document Title Sprachspiele : Grundlagen und Stellenwert im Fremdsprachenunterricht (German) Degree MA (German) Department Modern European Languages Supervisor
Advisor Name Title Dr G Tesmer Keywords
- definition – language games
- language games contribute to a communicative-orien
- characteristics of learners
- language games increase motivation
- language acquisition
- Introduction
- conclusion
- practical recommendations
- total learning
Date 2003-11-04 Availability unrestricted AbstractThe aim of this study is to prove that there is a need for innovative teaching methods in the foreign language classroom. This need arises from the fact that traditional and more conventional teaching methods tend to focus on analytical learning and left brain hemisphere activity, thereby alienating learners that are more inclined to holistic, right brain learning. The current study addresses this problem by showing in which ways the learner of German as a foreign language can benefit from the inclusion of language games in lessons. The research is directed towards indicating that games provide a basis for stimulating all the senses, thereby facilitating total learning.
Many learners of German as a foreign language seem to get stuck somewhere in the process of foreign language acquisition, seemingly unable to progress to an acceptable level of communicating/expressing themselves effectively in the foreign language. The objective of this study therefore is to show how the implementation of language games can dynamically work against this problem. Specifically, the goals of this research project are:
1 To show in which ways language games can be used not only to motivate foreign language learners, but also to lift the barrier where motivation has been blocked,
2 To show in which ways language games fulfill the requirements of total learning / holistic learning (using all the senses, stimulating both brain hemispheres etc.),
3 To show in which ways language games form part of a communicative approach, simulating real-life situations, thereby enabling foreign language speakers to communicate more effectively.
The type of study conducted in this mini-dissertation is of an interpretive nature. Theories on motivation, total learning, communicative approaches and the didactic value of games/playing are discussed in the various chapters. Information, gathered from various literature sources, has been organized so as to facilitate comparison as data-analysis technique. From the resulting comparisons, the findings of various researchers/authors have been synthesized in order to draw conclusions regarding the role of language games. Some practical recommendations follow to indicate how foreign language lessons can be structured in such a way that language games can be implemented to the benefit of students of German as a foreign language.

Last fall, California Certified Sustainable Winegrowing Alliance and respected green business consultant John Garn approached us about collaborating on a video that would highlight our extensive energy efficiency efforts. In this video, I discuss the massive project to revamp our refrigeration and winery piping systems.
Since 2006, we've been retrofitting the winery with the latest technology while preserving the vintage character of the chateau. Installment of new energy-efficient "cool roofs," refrigeration units, warehouse doors, preinsulated COOL-FIT piping systems and LED lighting helped us achieve our initial energy-reduction goals. PG&E's ClimateSmart program certified our energy usage carbon neutral in 2009, and Jordan has decreased its carbon footprint by 24 percent since embarking on this project.
Last year, we reached our goal of reducing our energy consumption to the lowest possible levels. It's the equivalent of removing 67 passenger cars from the road for a year, or planting 74 acres of pine trees. That means the Jordan chateau is finally ready for the next step in business energy efficiency: solar. Rather than rushing to convert to solar–and "solarizing" an inefficient structure–we believed it was important to take steps to reduce consumption before we went off the grid.
It's really exciting to see all these efforts coming to fruition on the eve of our 40th anniversary in May.
