With Mars in Pisces, Miles is very tuned in to suffering and injustice. This kind of sensitivity is a good thing to have in the rough-and-tumble world of politics. Having said that, it may be a challenge to be so sensitive in such a competitive arena.
Saturn and Pluto are in a very tense aspect in Mike's chart. He has encountered many power struggles and may be the poster child for the slogan "question authority." He has probably had to learn how to respect some of the leaders and bosses he's worked for. A part of him is always aware of how the situation could be improved, and he may have to work hard to find a diplomatic way to suggest changes he feels are important.
With Venus and Uranus in alignment, this candidate will be attracted to radical ideas. He likes to experiment and is not afraid to try a new approach. He has a great ability to adapt to changing circumstances, which brings out a lot of creativity when it's needed the most. With Venus and Uranus in Leo, this candidate enjoys being perceived as different and unique. He is not afraid to make a statement, even if it makes him temporarily unpopular.
Ken Salazar, 49, born in Alamosa, Colorado
Salazar is a Pisces, and as such, he will always be sensitive to those less fortunate. He has a lot of compassion and will take his constituents' concerns to heart. He may have a tendency to identify with the underdog and will have difficulty experiencing affinity with the power elite.
Salazar's Gemini moon makes him very open-minded and curious about everything and anything. This can lead to chaos, but it will also give him the ability to see the issues from many different angles. He is a great communicator and will welcome everyone's opinions. There is a lot of flexibility in this moon sign.
Having said that, with Mars in Taurus, Salazar knows when to dig in his heels and hold steady. Taurus energy is known for its stubbornness. He will not be afraid to stand up and make a point — even if it's not the popular choice. Taurus energy is also very earthy, so there will be a lot of practical reasoning behind his decisions.
This candidate is devoted to his family and will work hard to see them prosper. With Venus in Capricorn, he probably started working at a young age to help support his family. He is not afraid to get involved in projects that will take a long time to come to fruition. This man is patient and willing to make sacrifices to make his dreams come true. Salazar probably has rather traditional values when it comes to home and hearth.
With Jupiter and Uranus both in Cancer, Salazar has been influenced by many dynamic, unusual women. His mother must have been a very interesting person. (Cancer rules over mothers.) He is sensitive to women's issues and has reverence toward feminine energy. These two planets also give him a great deal of creativity, helping him come up with radical solutions seemingly out of nowhere. The combination of Pisces and Cancer in his chart give him a big, generous heart. He probably tries to hide his sensitivity in order to participate in politics. Underneath it all, he cares a lot, though the average person will have a hard time seeing his depth. You'd have to get to know him personally to see how deep the still waters run.
Bob Schaffer, 42, born in Cincinnati, Ohio
Bob is a Leo. He may have had a difficult relationship with his father, as most Leos do. Getting approval was impossible while growing up, which can make a person slightly unsure of themselves in adult life. This is reinforced by Saturn, which opposes his Sun in Leo. Someone with this chart may have had a childhood filled with sacrifices and responsibility. The positive aspect of the Leo energy is the ability to command an audience. He will do best in front of groups that share his values. It's harder to convert those who stand in opposition to him, as it may resonate with the early parental disapproval he experienced.
Bob also has a Venus/Pluto conjunction in Virgo. He is not afraid of hard work, and he is also not afraid of doing the less glamorous parts of any given job. He can see how to make things better and will apply himself until he creates the changes he feels passionate about. There are some strong, focused women in this man's life. They will definitely be behind the scenes, but exerting a powerful influence over him and his policies.
This candidate knows how to create prosperity on a personal level and may be able to use this ability for his constituents. He has a great sense of business and finance, which shows up in Jupiter opposing his Pluto. With an opposition, it's clear that he has struggled at times and knows how it feels to have less. He has also learned how to turn it around and create more abundance. With Jupiter in the sign of Pisces, religion and spirituality bring comfort to him when all else fails. He may identify strongly with Christianity or "Christian values," which is pretty much open to interpretation these days.

Pickwick's Interpolated Tales and the Examination of Suicide: The Science of an Ending
The death of the illustrator Robert Seymour, combined with other well-publicized cases of self destruction, had a defining impact on Dickens's most formative work. In addition to the various moments of 'accident and design' that determined the pace and structure of The Pickwick Papers, the complex, philosophical questions that arose from the spectacle of suicide inspired the young Dickens to invent the style that came to define him. This essay examines Dickens's engagements with science, medicine, and the logic of discovery through the intersections between Pickwick's interpolated tales and cases of alleged suicide.

Rahab Ministry reaches out to women in sex trade in the GTA. We routinely send outreach teams to visit massage parlours in Scarborough, Etobicoke and North York. We provide job skills training, personal counselling, social service referral and help to exit the sex trade.
Rahab is a prostitute whose story is narrated in Joshua 2 and 6. Her story embodies hope for women in the sex trade. Rahab believed in the LORD and responded by making the choice to turn from her ways of life to seek inclusion among the people of God. For this reason the letter to the Hebrews includes Rahab among the exemplars of faith (Heb 11:31) and she is commended as righteous in the book of James (James 2:25-26).
For over 65 years, Youth Unlimited (Toronto YFC) has been imparting God's love, truth and hope to young people from all walks of life regardless of race, faith, economic level, or cultural background.
Christian Aid & Relational Evangelism Inc. (C.A.R.E. Inc.) was registered as a charitable Christian organization in March 1990. The goal of the organization is to serve and evangelize Asians who, due to some circumstances, are unable to attend church activities.
The Mission of East Toronto Chinese Church (ETCBC) is to bring friends to Jesus Christ through evangelism, incorporate them into His fellowship, discipling them into Christ-like maturity equipping them for their ministry, in order to be a people who worship and glorify God's name.
ETCBC was the first church partner of Rahab Ministry. The church has been generously supporting the ministry since 2009. In 2014, ETCBC welcomed Rahab Ministry to establish it's office in the church
In January 2009, Joanna Yee heard the Lord called her to imitate Him and be a friend of prostitutes. She founded Rahab Ministry in June 2009 and started massage parlour outreach in December 2009. By 2012, the ministry had reached more than 600 women working in the sex trade.
Joanna graduated from Tyndale Seminary in 2010 with a Master of Divinity in Biblical Studies. The Lord has made her aware of the marginalized people in society. She was convinced that the gospel of Jesus Christ is both words and deeds. The parable of the Sheep and the Goats (Matt 25: 31- 46) commands us to serve the least in the society. Joanna takes these words to heart.
Gladys joined Rahab in 2009 after a short term mission trip in an Asian country serving sex workers. Her heart to walk alongside with these women grew and motivated her to move a step forward as staff after graduating from Tyndale with a Master of Divinity in Missions in 2011. She serves these women using the case management approach and encourages them to find hope in the Good News of Jesus Christ.
Fiona joins the Rahab Ministry staff after serving as volunteer since 2010. She has dedicated herself to serve and evangelize the marginalized and broken population in the community, especially young women, youth and their families who are impacted by the sex trade. As an experienced social services worker, she offers her social services knowledge and skills to help the ministry's development.

What's Trending: Google becomes a store and other big web changes
Google's been a verb for a long time, as in "I just googled that." Now it's not just a verb; it's a store. Big changes on the net, that's What's Trending.
An unidentified source told 9to5google.com the web giant is planning to open retail stores in several major cities this year. Sure you might end up buying it online, but this'll give you a chance to go hands-on with new Google products like Google glass.
"Obviously shareholders would be excited for that because it worked so well for Apple. Apple has 400 stores that equal to $10 billion a year in sales," said Data Doctors.
The stand-alone stores may be up in time for this year's holiday season.
Google isn't the only web giant is trending.
Microsoft launched its new email service today. It's called Outlook.com. You can say goodbye to Hotmail although all your Hotmail emails will transfer to Outlook, so you won't lose anything. This is Microsoft's shot at Google and Yahoo. The company will reportedly spend up to $90 million on the Outlook media blitz.
And finally, in six degrees of separation you can connect any actor to Kevin Bacon in six or fewer movie links. But now we learn that no two pages on the web are separated by more than 19 clicks.
So next time you're doing something naughty on the web check yourself, you may only be a few clicks away from your grandmothers Facebook page.

Conning Americans: How Politicians Create Dependence on Government Recorded: Wednesday, February 13, 2002
"Dependence on government has grown at unprecedented rates over the past 70 years. This ominous trend has coincided with the growth of centralized government power, which at its own discretion is used to regulate, manipuate, or prohibit. Driven by bipartisanship, bureaucracies, and interest groups, and accelerated by presidential ambitions, this trend has been so profound that few today can imagine life without government control. Economist and historian Charlotte Twight, one of the leading experts on politics and privacy, showed how special-interest politics created the income tax, Social Security, Medicare, surveillance of ordinary citizens, and other linchpins of the dependence-state, which in turn have made opposition to centralized control seemingly futile. She will then offer a strategy to reverse this trend in order to fulfill the promise of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

HARRISBURG, Pa., August 12, 2013 — Since the introduction of the iPhone, apps have quickly become an essential part of our lives. As Apple likes to say "there's an app for that" and indeed, it seems like there is an app for everything these days. There are so many apps out there that finding something of genuine usefulness can be difficult. This can be especially difficult when you are looking for a business app. Enter Likemind, an app that can help bring small groups of people together, and one that can also be used for businesses.
Likemind is an application for iOS devices - with an Android version coming soon - which relies on a simple premise. Essentially, Likemind re-creates that trusty old flyer that features phone numbers on tabs. Only this time around, things have gone digital. With Likemind, users can create a flyer with a specific purpose and only six tabs are available for people to contact the creator. There are a few benefits with limiting the amount of people that are able to connect with the creator. Here are some of them:
- With limited availability comes exclusivity, which is always popular.
- The smaller the group, the easier it is to connect with people.
- A group of six is easier to manage than a group of sixty.
- It's easier to learn about a small group, than a larger group of people.
Likemind for research
Likemind was originally conceived as an app to bring together people with the same interests. So how can this be adapted for business? Well, for one thing it can be used as a great research tool. Entering an unknown market area can be scary and connecting with people that are familiar with the target market can be invaluable. Entering the technology sector is both lucrative and daunting, but through Likemind it's possible to connect with a small group of very knowledgeable people.
Limiting the tabs and therefore slots to just six people is ingenious, and especially beneficial when using Likemind for business. Exclusivity on such a scale as this will encourage people to think about whether or not they really want to reply to a flyer. This creates a smaller, yet stronger pool of people than a larger selection would create.
SEE RELATED: Why everyone should learn to code
Likemind for selling and focus groups
Likemind can be used as a selling platform, too. Obviously, not in huge numbers, of course, but Likemind could be a great way to test a new product. That's doubly true for one that's unproven and perhaps not ready for widespread release just yet. For example, if Hermance, an industrial machine company, wanted to know professionals' thoughts on their speed power feeder, they simply have to put up the flyer on Likemind to find those who would be willing to try the product for free.
Market research is important, but with a large selection of many applicants, rigid, highly specific questions must be asked. Likemind could help you connect to a small base of applicants, which permits flexible questioning. Instead of grabbing their attention for 30 seconds, users could have it for 30 minutes.
Often, connecting with Likemind-ed people is the best way to help an idea grow. Conversations are better in smaller groups, but not too small. Having six or so people around one table is the perfect way to flesh out an idea and see it reach its potential. There's little to lose by employing this app, as Likemind is free. But there could also be much to gain.

Faith at Concordia
Where we're coming from
Beyond all the academic advantages of Concordia University, other intangibles make the campus unique: the enjoyment and support of a close Christian community, the positive outlook on life and the future, the greetings and smiles of students as they meet on the sidewalk between classes. These are simply by-products of the hope we share in Jesus Christ.The promise of life beyond death has been reserved for you by Jesus
Our hope is that anyone who visits either the campus or the website of Concordia University will readily see that Jesus is the center of our life and mission. More than that, we hope that all who visit know Jesus in a personal way. Knowing Jesus is not about obeying rules. It is about believing in God who loves you and all people enough to send a Savior.
Even if you never enroll or visit campus, we hope that you know the promise of life beyond death reserved for you by Jesus. You are important to God. He loves you and wants you to have eternal life in heaven with Him. God bless you!
So, where to next?
Jesus is that Savior who has changed the lives of countless people. You can learn more about Him by reading about His life in the Bible's Gospel of John, and you are invited to speak with our campus pastor.

U.S. Consumer Travel Report Sixth Edition
In the past three years, U.S. consumer travel has had trouble catching up with the nation's overall economic recovery. But after a long, stressful period of watching every dollar and forgoing vacation, travelers took off in 2013, finally treating themselves to the rest and relaxation they'd been craving - and providing the travel industry with a sorely needed boost. Phocuswright's U.S. Consumer Travel Report Sixth Edition is designed to help travel companies make the most of the bright years on the horizon by offering longitudinal analysis of consumer leisure travel behavior, consumption of major travel products, and the trip planning process.

Traveler Technology Survey 2013
Today's travelers are typically within arm's reach of one or more web-enabled devices, whether they are using desktops and laptops at home or work, or mobile technology such as smartphones and tablets on the go.

Phocuswright's Traveler Technology Survey 2013 presents a comprehensive view of the devices travelers currently own and use, and general trends in mobile web activity. In addition, the report addresses how travelers use social network platforms like Facebook and Twitter to plan their trips and share their travel experiences.

Hey all...
So, I've been scouring this site for opinions and pictures of quartz and pebble finishes. We have to make a decision by tomorrow, so our pool contractor can be finished by the end of this week. I always loved the classic white plaster for the color, but know we want something that won't get streaks or peeling, etc. We definitely don't want to replaster in another 8-10 years. We are looking at QuartzScapes by NPT (National Pool Tile) -- did they buy out the product from 3M and improve it? The other material we are looking at is Gemstone (the smaller stone, Sand Stone). I want the smoothness for the kids sake, (and my husband's feet as he cannonballs into the pool often), but how many more years does quartz give you? I don't want a grey color and I want light, ivory color, but will it look dirty with pebbles? Our contractor said it's about $1K difference in the two - we'd be willing to pay for a superior product. It's better to pay a little more now, than $8K in 8-10 years. I'm thinking one post with everyone's close-up of their finishes would help not only me, but this frequently asked question about color! Thanks all!

Here are a couple of pics of our new pool with Pebble Sheen and the color is Aqua Blue. We love it and it is not rough on our feet. I think it was definitely worth the extra costs. |

So, I've read about the concern about picking a blue color finish as it'll eventually fade to grey with the chlorine and/or salt. Is that what yours did as the shelf looks grey? |
I don't think it looks gray at all. Just the pebble color. Nice pool. I like the step markers. |
The shelf looks grey because of the water depth. The deeper the water, the more blue the finish will look. When you see the pebble applied before the water gets put in the pool, it looks grey. We have PS Aqua Blue, also. |

The online section of Financial Advisor magazine has published my article, "Retirees and Utility Maximization." I mention that title because I've been using the title a lot in the past, though the editors changed the title of the published version to "New Research Challenges the 4% Rule."
Here is the link to the article.
In the article I try to explain the findings and the importance of Duncan Williams and Michael Finke's article, "Determining Optimal Withdrawal Rates: An Economic Approach" from the Fall 2011 issue of Retirement Management Journal.
Please have a look.
A few days ago, a wrote a post, "Are high failure rates acceptable for retirees?" which is really a follow-up to this Financial Advisor piece.
I think these findings provide an important new perspective about retirement planning.

SlotZ Racer HD (Free update, Universal)
Hi all,
just an update to let you know that SlotZ Racer will be temporarily disappearing from the App Store while we prepare the new free, Universal update with all the cool new stuff Normally, this would just be a case of leaving the old version there and switching on the new one when it's ready, but as we're switching it to being a free game and some more news tomorrow adds some extra fun to the mix, we'd rather not risk players buying or downloading the old version of the game by mistake until the new one's out. Also, to repeat what I mentioned a while back, the game's not becoming freemium. As lots of people have bought it over the last couple of years we don't want to stick them with having to pay over and over for the features they've already bought. Current players will still have the whole thing, along with a bunch of specific goodies just for anyone who played the game pre-update. There will be a couple of very cool packs available via IAP for anyone who wants even more or just wants to support the game. More on that tomorrow hopefully |

I didn't have dry mustard or dijon, so I just used regular yellow mustard, which worked fine! The gravy was okay, I didn't think the roast really needed it."
"This is a great soup and east to make. I made a few alterations: I used chicken stock and omitted the salt. I omitted turmeric and used 3 tsp. of cumin, 1 tsp. paprika and 1 tsp. cayenne pepper. In addition I used 1/2 red lentils and 1/2 green."

Hot Dog Heaven
Orlando, FL, 32807, United States
When charismatic Chicagoan Mike Feld moved to Florida more than 20 years ago, he found one thing sorely lacking—a legit hot-dog depot. So he opened his own at a gas station on Highway 50. His links are Vienna Beef and can be gussied up with everything from onions and baked beans to the Reuben triumvirate: Thousand Island dressing, Swiss cheese, and kraut. Try the Chicago Hot Dog; every morsel, down to the wax paper on which the authentic savory is served, comes from the city for which it's named.

Spielberg, Lucas, and Scorsese talk the future of movies with Siskel & Ebert
Once the biggest names behind a camera, and still a trio of the key players, Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, and Martin Scorsese have shaped cinema with their contributions to the craft. Way back in 1990 the three directors shared their thoughts on the future of film with none other than Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert.
The blast from the past is well worth the watch, and the whole thing will cost you just under an hour. Watch it, and a more recent interview with Spielberg and Lucas that predicts an "implosion" of the idustry, after the jump!
Pretty great stuff!
Now, watch a video of Lucas and Spielberg sharing their thoughts about the inevitable implosion of the film industry from earlier this year:

Mass Casualty Drill On Same Day As Waco Explosion
Submitted by celeste on Fri, 04/19/2013 - 08:36North Hills Hospital is proud to be hosting one of the largest emergency preparedness drills ever held in the state of Texas this week. We will be partnering with the North Central Texas Trauma Regional Advisory Council (NCTTRAC) and first responders from throughout North Texas to test our equipment and processes so that when a real disaster happens, we're all ready to respond.
This drill is even timelier in the wake of the bombings at Monday's Boston Marathon. Our prayers go out to the victims involved, and we are proud of the first responders – EMS, fire, police, race workers, and hospital staff - who so bravely cared for the injured.
If you live near North Hills Hospital, you will see a lot of activity in our parking lots over the next three days as the NCTTRAC sets up a mobile 140-bed hospital, along with dozens of ambulances, several AMBUS (multi-patient ambulances), and helicopters. This is only a drill and will simulate a hospital evacuation, something that might be necessary in the event of a tornado, hurricane, earthquake, or prolonged power failure.

Did you know that Kim Jong Un threatened he would nuke Austin, Texas in the same week that this occurred? Did you know that Austin, Texas is in the same state as West, Texas? And they're both technically Central Texas!!
This was actually a Nukular Missile(TM) from North Korea. You can see what looks like the missile going backwards out of the burning factory on the video!!! OMG!!! Total cover-up!!!

Given drills on the same day as various events
(maybe including Boston, unconfirmed but to go by the coach's account), I think it was valid to at least point this out. Whether any or all were merely coincidences, it's something that's been noted enough, here at the DP and elsewhere. Why such hostility? And while you say that this drill was nowhere near where the fertilizer plant explosion happened, it was apparently close enough so that, according to the hospital, the drill was cancelled so resources could be diverted. http://northhillshospital.wordpress.com/2013/04/16/this-is-o...
When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the Universe.

Post-Season Depression: The Devils Cavalry
I never thought it would happen to me, but I have to admit, I am actually depressed that the Devils season is over! I'm told this is a normal phase for any hardcore hockey fan, only made more difficult by my status as a season ticket holder (and one who only missed two of this year's forty-four home games).
At first, it seemed like a relief not to be traveling up and down the Parkway/Turnpike every other day, losing sleep and trying to figure out how NOT to annoy my store manager with my game day demands. However, by week two of having no hockey games to attend, I started to get restless. I was sad. Frankly, it was puzzling; until a fellow hard core fanatic explained that what I was dealing with (and my family, though to this day they won't admit it) can easily be summed up as "post-season depression."
Armed with a "diagnosis" of my sudden case of the blues, I could begin focusing on the things I usually keep busy with when there isn't any Devils hockey to watch!
This spring, I have begun the arduous process of getting back in shape. I'm an equestrian. I compete in horse shows around the state and sometimes in Pennsylvania. I'm not famous by any stretch of the imagination, nor will I ever be, but I enjoy the lower levels of competition which I can afford the time and money for. Mostly, I focus on dressage, but I also enjoy riding in hunter/jumper or the occasional horse trials. My favorite days are when my instructor takes me trail riding, and we can just relax and gallop along a nice stretch of open field! This beautiful weather has lifted my spirits, and now that my show season has officially begun, I am a busy person once more!
I know I miss being at the arena. I miss my friends, the staff, and I certainly miss the team. I'm looking forward to the fall when I can enjoy all of the perks of being a season ticket holder again. But for now, I am really excited and content to be spending all my extra time with my horses. What about the rest of you?

'Different this time around' with Bears for newly re-signed QB Josh McCown
BY MARK POTASH email@example.com
#15, Josh McCown, of the Chicago Bears runs against the Seattle Seahawks, during their game at Soldier Field in Chicago, IL on Sunday December 18, 2011 | Matt Marton~Sun-Times Media
Josh McCown is as ready as he can be.
The veteran quarterback was coaching high school football outside of Charlotte, N.C., when the Bears called on him to back up Jason Campbell in case Jay Cutler is unable to start against the San Francisco 49ers on Monday night in San Francisco. He hasn't played since he was cut after starting the Bears' final preseason game against the Cleveland Browns.
But it's a little better situation than last season, when the Bears also signed McCown ''off the street'' in November. He started the final two games — throwing a combined two touchdowns and three interceptions in a 35-21 loss to the Packers at Lambeau Field (76.8 passer rating) and a 17-13 victory over the Minnesota Vikings at the Metrodome (75.4).
''It's different this time around just because I was in camp with these guys,'' said McCown, who was 29-for-46 for 245 yards, two touchdowns, one interception and an 82.3 rating in the preseason. ''I know the guys a little bit better. But I learned that you need to stay ready. You never know what's going to happen.''
McCown said he had been throwing every day while he was coaching the high school team, but he will have to adjust quickly to the speed of the NFL.
''I've been coaching high school ball,'' McCown said. ''So I sit down and start watching tape [of the 49ers]. I keep looking down at the clicker, like, 'Is this thing on fast forward?' Because the speed is so much faster than high-school kids. That's the thing, you've got to get your mind back into this speed at this level.''
Kicking the tires
The Bears had four punters in for a workout Wednesday morning. But coach Lovie Smith said it was not a sign of dissatisfaction with Adam Podlesh, who is 27th in the NFL in gross punting average (41.7 yards per kick) and 21st in net average (38.4).
Podlesh, who was sixth in net average last season with a franchise-record 40.4 yards per punt, suffered a hip-flexor injury in the preseason but has not missed a game. Smith said Podlesh is healthy. Podlesh averaged 38.8 yards on five punts against the Houston Texans, with no return yards.
''Podlesh has played well for us throughout,'' Smith said. ''None of us played as well as we needed to [against the Texans].
Old home week
It could get interesting when special-teams standout Blake Costanzo, who rarely goes a game without mixing it up with somebody on the other team, faces his former 49ers teammates Monday night. Costanzo, who leads the Bears with 10 special-teams tackles, was second on the 49ers last year with 17.
''They're friends until you step between the lines and then they're football players,'' Costanzo said. ''I'm excited to go back there and see guys I've played with. That's my favorite part of playing football — the guys in the locker room and forming relationships, so it's going to be fun to go back there.''

Hi guys.
My name's Liam, I'm 19 and just bought my first Ford the other day - a 2004 StreetKA Luxury :-)
I've been driving it constantly for the past two days and I love it!
My first car was a 2003 SEAT Arosa 1.0l, I then bought a 1998 Mitsubishi Colt 1.3 and then recently sold my newer car, a 2001 Honda Accord 1.8 VTEC S. The Idle Air Control valve went on it though and I decided it was time for a change, so I bought the KA.
Just wanted to say Hi :-)

- PhD Summer Research Status Registration Form (only if continuing in the Fall)
- Class Adjustment Form (add/drop form)
- Withdrawal and Leave of Absence Form
- Diploma and Dissertation Information
Additional Information
International Students: Please visit the ISSO site for additional information
Completion of Graduate Study: All students in graduate study in the Division of Graduate Medical Sciences must register for two consecutive semesters prior to completion of their degree. All final documents, including the dissertation (if applicable), must be submitted during the last registered semester according to the deadlines on the graduation calendar, and will not be accepted unless all other coursework and requirements of the specific degree have been completed.
Continuing Students with Courses: Students continuing in a program but who are not registered for a full-time course load due to the completion of other degree requirements, such as research, must follow the registration guidelines above and meet with their advisor/program director to discuss course selection and for on-line registration. A Certified Full-Time (CFT) Form must be submitted if registering for less than twelve credits of coursework. This form must be signed by the student's advisor and submitted as a hard copy to the GMS office Registrar. Students should indicate the type of independent work to be completed during the semester and the number of hours dedicated to that work. Please note that specific details of objectives are required or the request may be denied. Visa regulations require that most International students maintain full-time status either by course registration or by certification.
Continuing Students without Courses: All students who are no longer taking coursework and are working on their dissertation, or other degree requirements, must register as a continuing student. Graduate students who are engaged during the summer in full-time research as an essential component of the graduate degree program are eligible to register for Summer Research Status and to be certified as a full-time student. This will establish the individual's official student status for purposes of loan eligibility and tax considerations. There is no charge to register for Summer Research status. Summer Research Status is available only for students continuing their studies in the fall; this status does not satisfy the mandatory registration for the final two semesters during which degree requirements are completed.
Continuing Students Part-Time without Courses: All part-time continuing students may register on-line for the course (Summer I – GMS MS 983 A1 – Summer II – GMS MS 984 B1).
Class Adjustment Guidelines: The Class Adjustment Form should be used to add or drop a class. Please pay close attention to the add/drop deadlines.
Adding a Course:
- Students may add a course via on-line registration or with the Class Adjustment Form for Summer I through May 27, 2014 and Summer II through July 7, 2014. Some GMS courses are restricted from on-line registration. For these courses, students must submit a Registration Form or a Class Adjustment Form with instructor and advisor signature.
Dropping a Course(s):
- Students may drop a course via on-line registration following the approval of their advisor without academic penalty or a "W" grade for standard courses (Summer I by May 27, 2014 and Summer II by July 7, 2014).
- Students who choose to drop a course after the designated drop deadline must obtain both the instructor and advisor signatures, complete the Class Adjustment Form and will receive a "W" grade on their transcript. Drop with a (W) by June 12, 2014 for Summer I and July 24, 2014 for Summer II. After the deadlines students may not drop standard courses.
- To add or drop a non‐standard course, students should use Student Link to view pertinent add/drop deadlines because non‐standard classes have a customized drop schedule.
- Students should check their student account as they add and drop classes after the payment deadline and notify the GMS Registrar if their student status changes from part‐time (0‐11 credits) to full‐time (12‐18credits) (or vice-versa) in order to have their certification code corrected. A revised scholarship voucher must be submitted to the GMS Financial Aid Administrator (617-638-5216) in the GMS office.
MD/PhD Students Obtaining Summer Research Status: PhD students who are engaged in full-time research during the summer as an essential component of their PhD degree program are eligible to register for Summer Research Registration status. (Note: This does not apply to students in BUSM I who will be doing the required summer 8-10 week lab rotation). The purpose is to provide a no-cost mechanism whereby graduate students who are engaged in academic research during the summer can be appropriately recognized as students for purposes of loan eligibility and tax considerations. A student seeking Summer Research status, should complete the Summer Research Status registration form, obtain the appropriate signatures, and submit this competed form to Billy Mara in Room L-317. Forms should be submitted before the start of the Summer Session II.

With the winter months approaching, many Americans are looking for the safety and stability provided by all-wheel drive. Sending power to all four wheels can help a vehicle gain traction in all weather conditions. Luckily for all-wheel drive shoppers, there are many options to choose from without venturing into the realm of high-riding trucks and SUVs. Although the advantages of four driven wheels are obvious in slippery road conditions, the technology usually comes at a cost - both upfront and at the pump. We've indicated the extra cost of the all-wheel-drive option, or the cost differential compared with the equivalent two-wheel-drive model, as well as its EPA gas mileage ratings, and the fuel economy penalty versus the two-wheel-drive version of the same car for every vehicle on our list.
Acura's best-selling model is the MDX crossover, so it's not surprising to see the brand lend a little bit of all-weather appeal from the MDX to some of its other cars. The brand's flagship RL sedan comes standard with all-wheel drive, while Acura's midsize offering - the TL - adds the brand's Super-Handling All-Wheel Drive system as an option for performance-minded buyers.

Introdução à leitura de Erich Fromm

AbstractErich Fromm tries a dialogue between Marx and Freud, producing a meeting between the critical theory of society and the one of its conscience. This is the starting point from where a critic of ideology departs, which means an analysis of what the Author considers a pathology of those actions codified as «Social Characters something like an articulation of 'the infra and the super¬structure. The ciment, but also the dynamite that stands at the origin and the goals of a global strategy to manipulate motivations. Our purpose is to present a critical epitome, that appeals to its original theoretic universe.

Buyer Beware!
Yesterday was the last day you could have made your RRSP contribution to offset your 2013 income. So… how many of you went and bought some mutual funds?
With this in mind, I watched a great episode on CBC's Marketplace called "Show Me The Money" where they went undercover to test financial advisers at the 5 major banks and 5 other investment companies. Results were not surprising to me, but some answers blew me away; $5K return on $50K investment! Sign me up! At the end of the day, buyer beware unfortunately.
Check out the video and share it with your family and friends!
Any readers out there have stories where their financial advisers promised them amazing returns??

8 Scenes We Love From 'Coming to America'
Features By Christopher Campbell on June 30, 2013 | Comments (3)Despite its arrival two years after the surprise success of 'Crocodile' Dundee, the similarly premised Coming to America hardly seemed like a knockoff. Sure it is also about a strange foreigner who visits New York City and experiences a comical culture clash, but the 1980s were actually so full of movies of this nature (see also Moscow on the Hudson, Splash, Brother From Another Planet, Big Business, both The Muppets and Jason Take Manhattan and maybe even Big, which along with 'Crocodile' Dundee II had just recently come out ahead of this), so it wasn't a big deal. Besides, with Eddie Murphy at the peak of his career at the time there was no way this thing could fail. This weekend is the 25th anniversary of the release of Coming to America (specifically yesterday), and although a lot of obvious parts are dated (some of which actually make the movie funnier now), it remains a rather timeless metropolitan fairy tale. It's still one of the top three Murphy comedies (the other two being Trading Places and Beverly Hills Cop, of course), features some amazing make-up work by Rick Baker that would be still be worthy of its Oscar nomination if done today, excellent African dance choreography from little known Paula Abdul and in recent years it provided tons more laughs via the meme in which any dialogue spoken by James Earl Jones is dubbed over scenes of Darth Vader. As ripe as the plot would seem for a remake, hopefully it […]
13 Famous Actors Who Debuted in Iconic Movies
Cinematic Listology By David Christopher Bell on September 6, 2012 | Comments (7)Acting is like anything in that success doesn't come quickly. It's why we can go back and watch old clips of Brad Pitt whoring for Pringles or Tina Fey talking about the interest rate at Mutual Savings Bank. You have to start somewhere, right? Same goes for motion pictures – for most actors, your first role is going to be some mediocre piece like Return To Horror High or Revenge Of The Creature – but every once in a while an actor or actress starts off at a high point. Here are such high points, awesome first films that you'd be proud to be a part of even if you never did another film ever again.
Kevin Carr's Weekly Report Card: September 16, 2011
Features By Kevin Carr on September 16, 2011 | Be the First To CommentThis week, Fat Guy Kevin Carr feels the weight of the fall movie season. It's September, and while the kids are heading back to school, he's playing hooky with Sarah Jessica Parker chick flicks and yet another not-quite-70s-video-nasty remake. Kevin is consoled by the release of Drive, however, because Albert Brooks as a crime boss makes him chuckle. And his love for 3D and Disney meet head-on in a collision of awesomeness.
Vintage Trailer of the Day: Conan the Barbarian (1982)
Features By Scott Beggs on June 22, 2011 | Comments (2)What daring! What arrogance! We salute these trailers! In 1982, John Milius brought Conan the Barbarian to life with questionable authenticity and a gallon or three of body oil. Arnold Schwarzenegger was the only man at the time for the job, and James Earl Jones the only man willing to turn into a snake and fight him. Now there's a new adaptation coming soon featuring Jason Momoa. He's got a huge loincloth to fill, but, unlike Schwarzenegger, it's almost certain he didn't have to tone down his workout routine in order to wield a sword properly. Arnold was a monster.

Programmable Logical Controls (PLCs) are systems which connect a number of instruments to allow for overall management or automation of large, complex processes. Through sensors attached to all elements of the system, Territory Instruments can design PLCs to process all interactions and determine the action or adjustment required, fully automating otherwise complicated processes.
For example, Territory Instruments has recently designed and implemented a PLC to monitor and control the Darwin Hospital's power supply ensuring that if the main or even secondary power sources fail then further back ups are instantly and automatically initiated.

Some time in March deer, for the first time, came through gates (where were temporarily open) and ate nearly every leaf on a five-foot-plus rhododendron. Some leaves, nearest the top, where it was most inconvenient for them or simply too high, survived. Now is the time it would normally bloom, and several blooms have appeared and blossomed on branches above the level of the deer defoliated. Prior to this I never worried about this plant, because it always simply took care of itself; it was lush and blossomed with huge flowers all over; and the leaves remained for 12 months, though in the winter (I'm in the Catskill Mountains) in severe cold they'd fold in on themselves. Now, without leaves, do I just leave it alone, make sure the deer don't get to it, and wait for it to re-leaf? Will it re-leaf? Or, do I have to cut back the 15 or 20 years' worth of growth and have it start all over again? |
Follow-Up Postings:
A healthy plant will normally fully recover if you do nothing except guard against drought. If it isn't mulched, mulch to conserve moisture, keep weeds down and reduce winter stress. It is important the deer don't defoliate it two years in a row. That could be fatal. A rhododendron will usually come back once, but since it is stessed it may not come back two years in a row. I would just get some deer netting like the product they have at Ace Hardware and cover it next winter to insure that you don't have a repeat performance. Remove the netting in the spring before the plant blooms. Then, since you have a fence, after one winter it should be OK unless the deer come back in the future. |
