I was given this product to try through a blogger here in South Africa as part of the 28 day skin changing challenge from Kiehl's. We had to take weekly pictures of our skin to show the progress of using this oil every night. Oh my goodness was I amazed. In my before photo my skin looks dull and pale compared to what it is now. After just a week of using this liquid gold I could already see a difference - if you take photographs you will see it happen before your own eyes!
This oil smells wonderful to me and 4 drops go a long way, so this product lasts. I have had this product for 4 months now and i've got about 1/4 of a bottle left, so it can last you a good 6 months of using it every night. My skin feels plump and soft to the touch every morning after I use this. My friend even commented on my skin saying that something looks different. After a month of use I could even go out with just a tinted moisturizer on, something I've never been comfortable doing before. My occasional breakouts have stopped completely, I can't remember the last time I had a breakout. This oil also helps with the fine crows feet around my eyes and they have almost disappeared by now.
Do not be afraid if you have oily skin - I have oily skin too and this oil is wonderful. It will not make your skin more oily, quite the opposite really.
This is my HG night treatment, I will most definitely be repurchasing once my bottle is empty.

When I am dry and especially during the winter, this used to work very well on me.
I don't like the smell but it does soothe my skin.
I like that this has never aggravated my face seriously and is very calm and soothing
This is a great product to bring with when I am traveling as it can give me a pick me up and save me from some dry skin. I will not repurchase because I have moved on to better products.
I don't get all the hype. Yes, it smells heavenly and you do wake up with glowing skin, but I think that's also a mental effect of spending $45 on AN OUNCE of MIXED OILS. I get the same glow from Argan oil (around half the price) and coconut oil (a quarter of the price.) Plus I can already foresee the horrors of using up this product, as the dropper becomes inefficient towards the end! I think the product is great, but it isn't worth half the cost.

At first I thought this product was overrated, even benign, as I couldn't see any difference in my complexion. No brightness, no healthy glow etc. I was starting to feel a little bummed about spending £40 on a bottle of what was essentially, pleasant smelling oil.
To begin with, I was only using Midnight Recovery 2/3 times per week. I thought - falsely - that if I used it every night I was BOUND to break out. I mean, I had to - MR is an oil, which is, after all, the root of my adolescent skin problems, right? So, resting upon this assumption, I was parsimonious in my application for the first two months that I owned MR.
However, the real breakthrough came when I, sick of the ostensibly great experiences everyone else was having, decided to perform a little experiment. I was going to use Midnight Recovery EVERY NIGHT and see what happened. Risking a few pimples to find the perfect Midnight Recovery recipe seemed like a small price to pay for the redemption my soul would bask in after discovering that this indulgently priced item actually worked.
So I applied it every night. I cleansed, toned, applied 3-4 drops of oil over my face.
I will cut the middle part out as I wouldn't want to embellish unnecessarily about my really fun life.
4 weeks later, and WOW. My skin has genuinely never been so good. When I take my make up off at night, my skin glows. And while Midnight Recovery Oil didn't trigger my decision to relinquish foundation, it certainly made me happy about it. My skin is clear and glowing, and truly has not looked this good in years.
So the moral of the story is, if you're not using your Midnight Recovery every day, lest your skin exploding into Turkish Delight scented acne, do try it. It may be the best thing you ever do.

NC25 Chinese, acne prone and oily skin.
WTF THIS ACTUALLY DRIES ME OUT. So 2 for 2, this and the Josie Maran argan oil is not hydrating enough.. must be the AZ desert climate. I'm on Day 3 right now, and I'm rubbing away random flaky skin (this never happens on my thick oily skin unless I go benzoyl peroxide nuts on my jawline). Seriously must be the lack of humidity arid climate I live in...
Update: Had to stop on Day 4, my skin feels dry and even a bit raw. :( I used to have oily skin.. hahahaha.

I wanted to like this. I didn't really see any results and I used the entire bottle! Maybe it wasn't hydrating enough. I wanted to see a glow but I did not. it smells great just not what I thought it would be.

I used to have oil free skin care since my skin is already very oily. 5months ago the SA of kiehls convinced me to use this product because it will hydrate the skin and make the skin brighter (not whiter). I love the lavender scent and the skin texture in the morning. Now my skin texture is much better.
I was super hyped when I knew Kiehl's have this product. I personally am a fan of any beauty products that claim to work at midnight, because I just love to see myself in the morning with a slight tiny little change from the night before. Unfortunately, I have no idea why this product doesn't seem to give me any result. I woke up with a skin that is just as dull as the night before ( I have acne prone skin, and all the acne meds I've been taking made my skin so dry and dull looking. ) I've been using this products for almost 6 months, I never stop using it just because it doesn't give me any bad effects from using this. I have high hopes for this product that I used this by itself on the night before my engagement party, but it turned out 'blah'. I'm still searching for a perfect over-night skin care product out there, and before I found any product that would live up to my expectation I'll use this one. This bottle does last very long, which is good for the price. Maybe this will work for those who don't have acne prone skin like me.

Press Releases
31st May, 2013
At Luanda, Angola, May 29, 2013, is a historic day in the calendar of the Zambezi Watercourse Commission (ZAMCOM) following the successful event of constituting of the Council of Ministers and the designation of Zimbabwe to host the Commission's headquarters, the permanent Secretariat. The meeting was held back to back with the meeting for SADC Ministers of Water.
It is also historical in that on this day Zambia, the only country that did not sign the ZAMCOM Agreement announced to the ZAMCOM Council of Ministers that it was ready to join the Commission, signed by the rest of the Zambezi Riparian States at Kasane, Botswana in 2004. It is also on the same day that the logo of ZAMCOM was officially launched at a graceful ceremony.
The ZAMCOM Structure has three governing organs, namely the Council of Ministers, the Zambezi Technical Committee (ZAMTEC) and the ZAMCOM Secretariat. The Zambezi Council of Ministers is the decision making body of ZAMCOM.
The much awaited ZAMCOM Council of Ministers meeting was attended by the majority of the eight riparian states that share the Zambezi river basin, i.e. Angola, Botswana, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, The United Republic of Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe. ZAMCOM Council elected Angola to serve as chair for one year, until the next annual ordinary session in 2014, whilst Botswana, should serve as vice-Chair, during this period accordingly.
In his remarks to the opening session of the first Zambezi Council of Ministers, Mr. Mohlahledi representing the SADC Executive Secretary Dr Tomaz Augusto Salomao, said this was a very memorable occasion as the make-up of the Zambezi Council of Ministers reaffirmed ZAMCOM's commitment to the promotion and implementation of the main objective of SADC's Regional Indicative Strategic Development Plan (RISDP) of regional integration and cooperation.
In his Chairing acceptance remarks, Angola's Minister of Energy and Water, Hon. Joao Baptista Borges said among the many decisions the Council was expected to take was around issues that affect the majority of the more than 40 million people of the river basin, particularly those in relation to climate change and variability adaptation.
The ZAMCOM Logo celebration was further heightened by the subsequent official launch the "Zambezi River Basin Atlas of the Changing Environment, the first of its kind in the Zambezi River Basin and in southern Africa," recently published by the Southern African Research and Documentation Centre (SARDC).
The Atlas presents a wide range of water resources and other natural resources in the Zambezi basin, and their significance, as well as socio-economic and cultural aspects. The document uses satellite images, high resolution photographs, illustrative text and graphics to illustrate various socio-economic issues in the Zambezi basin – a striking evidence that can be used as a basis for intervention at local, national, regional and basin levels.

As I was perusing the Plant Delights Nursery website looking for articles about hosta for warm climates and such, I ran across another, also by Tony Avent, which appeared in the AHS Journal back in 1992 (vol 23 #1). I link here to it on the PDN website. He expresses his thoughts on the way to go if you are going to breed hosta. And he notes that there is no work being done (at that time anyway) on breeding for better flowers. He is concerned about the gene pool for hosta. So if you are interested in one hybridizer's approach to hosta breeding, and one who has introduced a bunch of very popular hosta, follow the link and enjoy. |

Despite the slightly awkward packaging and £9 price tag in the UK, I can't fault the product overall. It does exactly what you hope for- loooong staying power, evening/mattifying skin tone etc. Love this.
This primer potion is amazing. Like a lot of the reviewers, I also have oily skin too, and this product worked great on my eyelids. The eyeshadow stuck to my eyes very well. The only downfall about this is it's packaging. It's a cute genie bottle, but there is no way of getting all of what you paid for. Otherwise, great product, I will be purchasing again.
I have OILY skin and my eye makeup normally is coming off after a couple hours. This stuff keeps it ON all night, into the morning and then some!! I can't live without it!!!
My fav Primer!UDPP is not a base,It is a 'colourless' primer,which will prevent CREASING of the e/s..you apply creamy bases on top of a primer,so that they dont crease..UDPP works great as a primer,especially for oily lids and since it is colourless,it wont make e/s pop or make it vibrant,which is common sense i guess..that is what colourful bases are for..the only flaw is packagin,which everyone is aware of and tons of youtube vids will show how to de-pot/de-can them..I just place the bottle in warm water for 5 mins,and this helps to get the primer out of the curvy edges of the tube..Love this primer...will def repurchase!Highly recommend..
i picked this up after seeing the constant raves for it on the boards, and returned it to Sephora just as quick as I bought it! Fast forward a few months, and after seeing the continued raves, decided once again, to pick this up and give it another whirl ... and then, with zero regrets, quickly swapped this out for something useful. I honestly don't understand the hype about UD Primer Potion. Don't get me wrong .. I love Urban Decay overall and have loads of their stuff .. but Primer Potion just didn't live up to the hype. For starters, the packaging sucks .. the product itself seemed runny (both times) and was very sheer. What I usually look for in a shadow base is something to even out my lid and provide a good foundation to apply shadow on. Primer potion definitely didn't do any of the above. It seemed like it took entirely too long to set/dry, and was a sheer veil of nothingness on my lids. I've had a couple mini's from various palettes, and quickly swapped those off just as fast .. and went right back to my MAC paints and paint pots.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING PRODUCT! I have very, very oily skin and shadows will crease before lunchtime! I put this on at 6 am, work 8-5, go to class from 6-9 and when i get home it still looks like I just applied my makeup, I will never be without it again!!
Got a .55 oz of this at my Ulta store for only $22. Great deal! I was using MK primer (blah) and MAC paintpot in Soft Ochre (actually great to use alone without shadow to even out eyes, otherwise it creases). The UDPP did not crease and shadows stayed on all day, colors still vibrant by the end of the day! Def. A HG for me!

Boasting marquee victories against Kansas (then ranked No. 10) and defending NCAA champion UConn, the Temple men's basketball team has begun to garner national attention. Celebrate your Temple pride by rallying behind the Owls as they take on SMU at the first home game of the semester Wednesday, Jan. 14 at 7 p.m.
January 12, 2015
With the Owls' final game at Tulane on Dec. 6, Temple football head coach Matt Rhule reflects on the season and what it means to play for Temple University.
November 26, 2014
Cherry and White Night offers Owls fans a preview of the upcoming basketball season. Following the event, fans can stick around to watch Temple football team take on the Houston Cougars.
October 16, 2014
Three of Temple's women's sports programs are off to blistering starts, with two still undefeated.
The Owls will honor the memory of long-time Board of Trustees member and alumnus Lewis Katz during the home opener on Saturday, September 6, against Navy. The game kicks off at 1 p.m. at Lincoln Financial Field.
Men's basketball players Dalton Pepper, Will Cummings and Jimmy McDonnell will be honored at the annual Philadelphia Big 5 Banquet, to be held April 14 in the Palestra.
The Super Bowl is going to get some #CherryOn—again. When defensive tackle Terrance Knighton, CLA '09, takes the field for the Denver Broncos on Sunday evening at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, he'll be the sixth former Owl to play in a Super Bowl in the last 10 years. "Temple molded…the character I have now," said Knighton, the Owls' captain in his senior year.
The Owls faced the La Salle Explorers at the Palestra as a part of ESPN's "College GameDay" Saturday, Jan. 18. The game aired on ESPN2 Saturday afternoon.
On Jan. 14, students from local North Philadelphia schools came together to celebrate with Temple women's basketball head coach Tonya Cardoza and the Temple Owls as they prepared to face Southern Methodist University. Promoting the theme "Shooting for Success," Cardoza stressed the importance of teamwork, leadership and teamwork as she spoke to the kids.
Temple University announced today that it will reduce the number of its intercollegiate athletic programs by seven, effective July 1, 2014. The action will mean a better and more sustainable experience for its remaining student-athletes and bring Temple into line with most other schools in The American Athletic Conference.
When ABC's "Good Morning America" invited Temple students to join the show's annual "College Week" broadcasts at GMA's studios in New York City, they asked for school spirit. What they got was a two-day takeover loud enough to shake Times Square — and a national outpouring of Temple pride.
Temple is ready to take on the Fordham Rams on the Owls' home turf at Lincoln Financial Field this Saturday at 1 p.m. Students are encouraged to show team members their Cherry and White spirit at this week's #CherryOn pep rally on Liacouras Walk Friday at 3:30 p.m. The event will feature performances by the spirit squad, Diamond Marching Band and Diamond gems. Food and prizes while supplies last!
Temple Student Government has launched Cherry On Fridays, a student-driven effort to encourage all members of the Temple community to wear cherry and white on Fridays. The idea is gaining momentum, with several events planned in advance of the football team's American Athletic Conference debut at noon Saturday vs. Houston.

If I have a method like this:
public static String convertDateTimeToString(DateTime dt) {
return dt.getDate() + " " + dt.getTime();
Which takes a Datetime object of my own which contains a Java.sql.date and a Java.sql.time, what is the best way of reversing the process so that I can substring a Java.sql.date and a Java.sql.time from a string?
Or if DateTime dt is a JodaTime DateTime object?
If this can be done without reference to Java.util.date.

Burma's NLD in parliament 'boycott' over oath
Burma's parliament has convened amid a boycott by the party of pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi because of a row over the oath of office for MPs.
The National League for Democracy (NLD) want to swear to "respect", rather than "safeguard" the constitution, which they say is undemocratic.
The 1 April by-elections saw Ms Suu Kyi and 42 NLD members elected as MPs.
Meanwhile, the European Union has agreed to suspend sanctions against Burma for a year, diplomats say.
Military dominanceThe constitution was drawn up by Burma's former military junta. It reserves 25% of all seats in parliament for the military.
"Only after the wording in the oath has been changed will we be able to attend the parliament," Ohn Kyaing, NLD spokesperson and newly-elected MP, told BBC Burmese.
The upper house of parliament convened in the morning and the lower house in the afternoon.
The NLD says it is confident the dispute over the parliamentary oath can be settled, says the BBC's Rachel Harvey in Bangkok. But no-one appears to be quite sure how or when.
Burma sanctions
In place:
- US: Arms embargo, bans on investment and financial services, as well as a ban on most Burmese imports
- EU: Ban on arms exports to, and investment in, Burma. Visa restrictions and asset freezes targeting key officials, ban on exports of gems, timber and metals
- Canada: Asset freezes and ban on all imports and exports as well as financial services
- Australia: Visa restrictions and ban on arms exports
Steps to ease sanctions:
- US: To start 'targeted' lifting of investment and financial services bans. Will relax visa ban to help officials travel to US. Will maintain sanctions on people and institutions that oppose reform. Waived ban on technical assistance in February
- EU: In January suspended visa ban on certain ministers and officials. In April, agreed to suspend sanctions for a year, but kept arms embargo
The dispute has come to a head as foreign ministers of EU nations met in Luxembourg.
At the meeting, the EU agreed to suspend sanctions against Burma for a year - with the exception of the arms embargo, diplomats said.
The decision, which was expected, rewards the country's recent reforms. It will go into effect later this week.
The US and Australia have already eased some sanctions on Burma.
"Lifting the sanctions will enable the international organisations, such as us, to get re-engaged," Asian Development Bank managing director Rajat Nag said.
"The challenges are huge and have to be addressed on a very broad front. But it has to start with engagement of the international community."
Burma has embarked on political and economic reform since the transition to a civilian-led government after polls in November 2010 ended nearly 50 years of direct military rule.
The constitution was introduced by the military administration in 2008 as part of that transition. It allocates 25% of seats in both houses of parliament and the state assemblies to the army.
The army and its proxy Union Solidarity and Development Party (USDP) still hold about 80% of seats in parliament, despite the NLD's recent landslide win in the 1 April by-election. The NLD boycotted the November 2010 polls because of election laws it said was unfair.
Ms Aung San Suu Kyi wants, ultimately, to change the constitution because it enshrines the role of the armed forces in politics, says our correspondent.
But changing the oath may require parliamentary approval which would in turn mean securing the support of the military whose power the NLD wishes to curtail.
A similar change in the wording had to be made to the political registration law in order for the NLD to be able to take part in the latest by-elections. They were the first elections the NLD competed in since 1990.

Maryland, Ohio and Texas citizens consider banning red light cameras
April 13, 2010
SYKESVILLE, Maryland: Residents in Sykesville will get the opportunity to vote on banning traffic cameras and automated ticketing on the May 4 ballot. Officials in charge of the traffic cameras are worried due to the large amount of residents that have signed the petition to get the issue on the ballot. Similar petition drives are under way in five other cities, notably in Baytown Texas where a petition has been submitted with double the amount of required signatures needed to validate it for the November election. In Houston, Texas, voters will decide in November whether to ban the devices, which are used at 70 intersections across the city.[1] In Ohio, the city of Cleavland and Garfield Heights both have petition drives under way and the group organizing those petitions will head towards Toledo next where a previous effort to get red light cameras banned was stopped by city officials. Last year, multiple votes to stop the red light cameras all passed.[2]

To the Editor: Preserve capitalism
Since the November election, our liberal leaders have chosen to ignore the will of the voters. Although they say differently, their actions tell us they are determined to continue their relentless quest for mediocrity by taking us down the path to socialism.
With their unchecked spending, oppressive government control, and increased power to organized labor, they are destroying the capitalism that has served us so well for more than 200 years.
A society that seeks equality for everyone loses the incentive to achieve excellence. This drive to excel is what propelled our nation to greatness.
The liberal argument is that we must care for the needy. Of course, we must. However, it fails to recognize that without the motivation that a free enterprise system provides, we will see our wealth depleted, and we will be unable to care for the poor, the aged and the infirm. The result will be the rebellion and bankruptcy we are currently seeing in many European and African countries.

fresco painting
fresco painting
Method of wall painting in which water-based pigments are applied to wet, freshly laid lime plaster. The dry-powder colours, when mixed with water, penetrate the surface and become a permanent part of the wall. This technique is also known as buon fresco, or true fresco, to distinguish it from fresco secco, or dry fresco (painting on dry plaster). Early Minoan, Greek, and Roman wall paintings were frescoes. The Italian Renaissance was the greatest period of fresco painting, as seen in the works of Cimabue, Giotto, Masaccio, Fra Angelico, Correggio, and others. Michelangelo's frescoes in the Sistine Chapel and Raphael's in the Vatican are the most famous of all. By the 18th century, fresco had been largely replaced by oil painting. In the early 20th century it was revived by Diego Rivera and others, often as a medium for political art. Fresco painting is also found in China and India.

Don't be obsessed by possessions, Pope says in starting Lent
ROME (Reuters) – Pope Francis, leading the world's Roman Catholics into the penitential season of Lent on Ash Wednesday, urged them not to be obsessed with possessions and to shun a culture where everything can be bought and sold.
Ash Wednesday is the day Christians are reminded of mortality and hear the phrase 'from dust you came and to dust you shall return' as ashes are smudged onto their foreheads.
I'm not a superman, Pope Francis says
VATICAN CITY (Reuters) – Pope Francis has played down the notion that he is a "superman" who will bring sweeping reforms to the Roman Catholic church, stressing that its ban on contraception and opposition to gay marriage will remain in place.
The pope, in an interview with Italy's Corriere della Sera newspaper published on Wednesday, also said no institution had moved with more "transparency and responsibility" than the Church to protect children in the wake of its sexual abuse scandals.
Pope skips seminary visit because of slight fever -Vatican
VATICAN CITY (Reuters) – Pope Francis skipped a planned visit to student priests at a Rome seminary on Friday evening because he was suffering from a slight fever and was advised to rest, the Vatican said.
It was the first time since his election nearly a year ago that the 77-year-old pope had cancelled a public engagement and came after a very busy period for the pontiff, with a number of events outdoors in cold weather.
Ex pope Benedict denies he was forced to resign
VATICAN CITY, Feb 26 (Reuters) – Former Pope Benedict, in
one of the few times he has broken his silence since stepping
down nearly a year ago, has branded as "absurd" fresh media
speculation that he was forced to quit.
Church law says a pope's resignation is valid only if he
takes the decision in full freedom and without pressure from
Pope revolutionises Vatican by opening finances to scrutiny
VATICAN CITY (Reuters) – Pope Francis on Monday revolutionised the Vatican's scandal-plagued finances, inviting outside experts into a world often seen as murky and secretive and saying the church must use its wealth to help the poor.
Francis, elected nearly a year ago with a mandate for reform, used a document known as a Motu Proprio – Latin for "by his own initiative" – to implement immediate changes including appointing an auditor-general.
In sweeping move, Pope creates office to oversee Vatican finances
VATICAN CITY (Reuters) – Pope Francis has taken his boldest step yet to overhaul the Vatican's scandal-plagued finances, creating a new department with broad powers to oversee all of its economic and administrative affairs, the Vatican said on Monday.
The Secretariat for the Economy will answer directly to the pope and will be headed by Australian Cardinal George Pell, currently the archbishop of Sydney.
Pope tells cardinals to shun intrigue, cliques of a royal court
VATICAN CITY (Reuters) – Pope Francis urged cardinals, who make up the top echelon of the Roman Catholic Church, on Sunday to shun the intrigue, gossip and cliques typical of a royal court.
Since his election nearly a year ago, Francis has often told his top aides not to live or behave like a privileged class. The eight-year papacy of his predecessor, Benedict, was marked by mishaps and missteps, which were often blamed on a dysfunctional Vatican bureaucracy and intrigue befitting a Renaissance court.
Pope Francis inducts new cardinals as predecessor Benedict looks on
VATICAN CITY (Reuters) – Pope Francis urged 19 freshman cardinals to shun rivalries and factions at an induction ceremony on Saturday where his scandal-plagued predecessor, pope Benedict, made a surprise appearance.
It was the first time Benedict attended a papal rite since his resignation a year ago. His presence offered the remarkable scene of a former pope, a reigning pope and a potentially future pope in St. Peter's Basilica at the same time.
Pope tells cardinals to tackle divisive family issues with courage
VATICAN CITY (Reuters) – Pope Francis on Thursday urged cardinals gathered to discuss family-related issues such as contraception, cohabitation, divorce and gay relationships to be "intelligent, courageous and loving" in their debate.
He was opening two days of closed-door sessions with some 185 cardinals from around the world to prepare for an autumn synod of bishops that will discuss the issues at greater length.
Cardinals present pope with proposals for financial reform
VATICAN CITY, Feb 19 (Reuters) – Cardinals advising Pope
Francis on reforming Vatican finances gave him their proposals
on Wednesday with one suggesting a new central economic ministry
that would incorporate the Holy See's scandal-plagued bank.
An eight-member advisory board of cardinals from around the
world had concluded three days of meetings and reached its
conclusions, Vatican spokesman Father Federico Lombardi told
reporters at a briefing.

Passavant Hospital Offering Colorectal Testing Drive-Thru
Here's something you don't see every day: a colorectal testing drive-thru.
Passavant Area Hospital and the Mia Ware Foundation are teaming up with hopes of cutting down on the number of patients diagnosed with cancer.
Residents in the Jacksonville area were able to pick up a free cancer screening kit at Passavant, and then complete the screening at home.
Colon cancer can strike both men and women, and usually occurs at an early age. That's why organizers say early detection of any type of cancer is key.
"I know of a gentleman who, a few years ago, he was in his 30s, and he did not know he had symptoms," Mia Ware Foundation board member Kim Brogden said. "And by the time he got to a physician, it was too late."
Doctors say colon cancer screenings should start for everyone beginning at the age of 50, but if you have a family history of the cancer, experts say you should start the screening process sooner.
Organizers say the earlier cancer is detected, the greater the survival rate.
If you're interested in getting a free cancer screening kit, contact Passavant Hospital.

Michael Vorenberg received his A.B. and Ph.D. from Harvard University, which awarded him the Bowdoin Prize for the best graduate essay, the Harold K. Gross Prize for the best dissertation in history, and the Delancey Jay Prize for the best work on human liberties. After receiving his Ph.D., Professor Vorenberg was a postdoctoral fellow at the W.E.B. Du Bois Institute at Harvard, and then an Assistant Professor of History at the State University of New York at Buffalo. He began teaching at Brown University in 1999, became the Vartan Gregorian Assistant Professor in 2002, and was promoted to Associate Professor with tenure in 2004.
