Australia have returned to the top of the Test rankings for the first time since August 2009 after sweeping an Ashes series and beating previous incumbents South Africa in their own backyard over the last six months.
The Proteas, who had topped the rankings since displacing England in August 2012, slipped below Australia after the results from the 2010-11 season were dropped from the calculations.
The true test of a great side is sustained success and now our goal is to maintain these rankings and continue to play great cricket
Michael Clarke, Australia Test captain
The Australians have also retained their top ranking in One-Day Internationals ahead of India, who have fallen from third to fifth in the Test rankings behind the top two nations as well as England and Pakistan.
"We are incredibly proud to be the number-one ranked team in the world in both Test and ODI cricket, which are two of the team's most important goals," said Australia captain Michael Clarke.
"There has been an enormous amount of hard work and effort on and off the field that has led to this result.
"However, the true test of a great side is sustained success and now our goal is to maintain these rankings and continue to play great cricket as we lead into challenging test series against Pakistan and India, and the World Cup at home."
Australia topped the rankings from their inauguration in 2003 to 2009 before being displaced briefly by South Africa, with India (2009-2011) and England (2011-2012) then ruling the roost.

Germany: More than one Billion Euros invested in Printed and Organic Electronics
Germany Trade & Invest will have experts at this year's Printed Electronics USA 2012 from December 5 to 6.
Berlin - Germany is the location of Organic Electronics Saxony, Europe's leading organic cluster from research to product. The forum is sponsored by the Federal Ministry for Research and Education (BMBF) and was founded by seven companies and three research institutes in 2008. Alongside the Forum Organic Electronics Excellence Cluster, this has made Germany a prime location for printed and organic electronic investment. The objective of both clusters and the BMBF is to establish sound public and private partnerships to spur research and development in the field of organic light emitting diodes (OLED) and organic photovoltaics (OPV). Germany Trade & Invest will have experts at this year's Printed Electronics USA 2012 from December 5 to 6 to inform visitors about the industry's latest business opportunities.
"The BMBF has provided over 185 million Euros to promote OLED and OPV production which has sparked a total investment of 1,100 million euros since 2006. This shows the unprecedented support in Germany towards printed and organic electronics. There is massive opportunity in this country to take advantage of potential suppliers and customers as well as incorporating cutting edge research into their products," says Max Milbredt, expert in mechanics and electronics at Germany Trade & Invest in Berlin.
The large amount of private investment, backed by steady government support, has moved two German companies, Novaled and Heliatek, to the forefront of printed and organic electronics. Both companies are headquartered in the state of Saxony and are global leaders in OLED and OPV.

GoDaddy will be leading the charge
Middle class Americans are the best at saving

PG&E Corporation ( PCG ) is scheduled to report first quarter 2014 results before the opening bell on May 1. Last quarter, the utility had posted an earnings surprise of +5.0%. Let's see how things are shaping up for this announcement.Factors at Play
PG&E Corporation continues to make considerable progress on gas related commitments and its target for electric system safety and reliability. The company invested around $5.2 billion in 2013 under its capital spending program and plans to invest $5-$6 billion in 2014. Of the total, a major portion is apportioned for electricity distribution and transmission projects. These initiatives will enable PG&E to provide uninterrupted services to its customers.
Although PG&E is committed to ensure the safety of its gas pipeline systems, the tragic incident at San Bruno on Sep 9, 2010, will continue to adversely impact its results of operations and cash flows.
Recently, Federal prosecutors said they plan to amend their indictment against the company to ask for more significant fines based on the 12 felony charges the utility faces in the 2010 San Bruno pipeline blast. This California utility was charged with knowingly breaking federal safety rules. The company could face a maximum fine of over $6 million, if the court decides that the company stood to gain financially or saved money as a result of criminal misconduct.
Accidents and calamities pose a major headwind for energy companies like PG&E. Going forward, the company is required to be more cautious following the San Bruno accident to provide safe, reliable, and affordable service to its customers. Since the San Bruno accident, the company has incurred and is committed to incur over the next several years an amount more than $2.2 billion for natural gas pipeline safety-related work. In addition, the reputation of PG&E Corporation has been brought into question by the San Bruno accident.Earnings Whispers?
Our proven model does not conclusively show that PG&E is likely to beat earnings this quarter. That is because a stock needs to have both a positive Earnings ESP (Expected Surprise Prediction) and a Zacks Rank of #1, 2 or 3 for this to happen. That is not the case here as you will see below.Zacks ESP: The Earnings ESP for PG&E is -7.35% since the Most Accurate estimate is 63 cents per share while the Zacks Consensus Estimate is 68 cents.Zacks Rank: PG&E's Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) when combined with a negative ESP makes surprise prediction difficult.Other Stocks to Consider
Here are some companies you may want to consider as our model shows that they have the right combination of elements, i.e., a positive Zacks Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1, #2 or #3.NRG Yield, Inc. ( NYLD ), Earnings ESP of +23.53% and Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy).Calpine Corp. ( CPN ), Earnings ESP of +28.57% and Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).Exelon Corp. ( EXC ), Earnings ESP of +6.94% and Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).

Ubuntu Opening The Doors
Ubuntu fans will already know that there are three more days until the latest version of Ubuntu drops, and we'll be knee-deep in coverage when it does. Shortly after version 9.10, or Karmic Koala, lands on the metaphorical shelves, the next round of development will hit the ground running.
If you're curious about how to get in on the Ubuntu game, next week will be your opportunity to place yourself squarely in the know. Like Filene's in Boston, Ubuntu holds a semi-annual event where everyone is welcome to get in while the getting is good. In the case of Ubuntu, the event in question is the project's Open Week, held at the beginning of each development cycle.
Of course, the development cycle of an Open Source project never really "starts" — the next version, and the version after that are always in the minds of those toiling dedicatedly behind their keyboards. The best jumping-on point, however, is most likely to be just as the new release is finished, and that is exactly the point of Ubuntu Open Week. The event takes the form of an IRC classroom, offering an overview of the project as well as education in its finer points.
According to its organizers, Open Week "[is] a series of online workshops where you [can]:"
- learn about the Ubuntu landscape
- talk to some of the key developers from the Ubuntu project
- find out about the Community and its relationship with Canonical
- participate in an open Q&A with Mark Shuttleworth, the founder of Ubuntu
- much more...
Among the events scheduled for the upcoming Open Week — which runs all next week, November 2 - 6 — are sessions on secure coding, the GIMP graphics editor, AppArmor, bug reporting and bugfixing, Ubuntu Membership, staging Open Source events, netbooks, KVM, and quite a bit more. The full schedule can be found on the Open Week page on ubuntu.com, a full calendar is available as an iCalendar feed, and Open Week updates are available on identi.ca from the Ubuntu Community Team.
The sessions take place in two IRC channels on the freenode network, #ubuntu-classroom and #ubuntu-classroom-chat — while you're in the neighborhood, don't forget to drop by #linuxjournal as well. For those unfamiliar with IRC, and even for those who are, the Community Team has put together a page of helpful instructions. Last but not least, it wouldn't be Ubuntu if there weren't a rule or two — a rundown on the way they do the things they do can be found on the Rules page.
One item of particular note is that, for the first time, Open Week will be multi-lingual — sessions will be available in Spanish as well as English. Those interested in the Spanish-language offerings can find more information on the Open Week ES page, and will meet in the #ubuntu-centroamerica and #ubuntu-centroamerica-chat channels on freenode.

Look for him in the #linuxjournal IRC channel.

Are you on the East Coast of the U.S.? Then your view today might be similar to mine.
Today is a snow day at Tufts and, in fact, throughout Massachusetts, as a blizzard Nor'easter blows through. I can't even say how much snow has fallen as it's swirling all over. In any case, enough snow has fallen to ensure I will need to dig my way out of the door. But that's an activity for later today.
Because the University is closed, please be patient if we can't respond to your questions until tomorrow.
Meanwhile, I wanted to take a minute to point out a few Admissions Blog features that I'll be working on throughout the rest of the academic year. First, there are the First-Year Alumni updates. These posts, including one yesterday from Hanneke, come from the folks who were still students just a year ago.
Alumni who are further into their post-Fletcher professional lives have been providing Five-Year Updates. This is the third year for these posts. I started with the Class of 2007, continued through the Class of 2008, and I'm now working with our friends in the Class of 2009. The next post in this series is coming soon!
In a few weeks, I'll ask students to write about all the Cool Stuff they have done throughout the year. Look for new posts in this series in April, but you can still read about last year's activities, as well an interesting mid-MALD year.
Finally, professors have kindly taken time to write about their interests, their work with students, and their pathways into the international affairs field, and these posts are captured in the Faculty Spotlight series.
Because I'm well aware that writing for the blog falls outside of the daily routine for alumni, students, and professors, I want their posts to have a life that lasts more than a day, and I hope that you'll scroll through the different series and read what everyone has to say.
First-Year Alumni: Hanneke reports from Malawi
By Jessica Daniels On January 26, 2015 · Leave a Comment · In Our Alumni
Next up among our 2014 graduates is Hanneke Van Dyke, an old friend of Admissions, having served on the Admissions Committee for two years. We miss her! Here's her update on her first year post-Fletcher.
As winter settles in back in the States, I'm sitting in front of a fan in my office in the relative comfort of southern hemisphere summer. "Relative" because it's not exactly comfortable, but after three winters in New England, I am welcoming the reprieve.
After graduating this past May from both Fletcher and the Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy, I began a Global Health Corps (GHC) fellowship and relocated to Lilongwe, Malawi in July where I work as a Community Nutrition Support Fellow for the Clinton Development Initiative (CDI).
CDI operates as a social enterprise here in Malawi, linking commercial production of groundnuts, soya, and maize to smallholder (generally, farmers operating on small-scale family-run plots producing for both sale and household consumption) outreach programs designed to build technical knowledge around best agronomic practices in order to increase productivity, income, food security and overall well-being. In our role at CDI, my "co-fellow" (more on that later) Hector and I are working to build a community nutrition program that is integrated into this commercial and smallholder approach. These first few months have been dedicated to developing relationships with government counterparts and municipal leaders in the district and traditional authority where we work, building our information base by engaging in community-level discussions, and becoming more familiar with the programming across CDI's different departments.
GHC itself is a leadership development and placement organization that works with leading health organizations to identify talent gaps, and then competitively recruits young professionals from an array of non-medical sectors to fill those gaps. Those in the GHC community share the common belief that health is a human right and that everyone has a role to play in advancing social justice through the health equity movement. One of my favorite aspects of GHC is that fellows work in pairs at their placement organizations — one national fellow and one international. My co-fellow Hector was born, raised, and educated in Malawi, and working as a pair is giving us the opportunity to collaborate and learn from each other. It is teaching us both a lot about communication, authentic partnership, and the benefits of a little constructive discord here and there.
Now in its sixth year, 128 GHC fellows (representing 22 countries) are working with 59 partner organizations in the U.S., Burundi, Malawi, Rwanda, Uganda, and Zambia. This diversity, both of origin and of experience and background, is so fundamental to the beauty of the Fletcher community, and it is something that was important to me to seek as I was planning my transition away from Medford. (In fact, applications recently opened for the 2015-2016 fellow class and I encourage anyone who has an interest in global health and social justice to explore the diverse offerings.)
Prior to Fletcher, I worked in rural community health education with the Peace Corps in Morocco and then spent a school year teaching elementary school English in the Marshall Islands with WorldTeach. It was during this time that I began to understand the value of working closely with communities and gained exposure to an array of challenges related to health and nutrition, taking a particular interest in their effects on children.
While at Fletcher, my chosen Fields of Study were Human Security and Public & NGO Management and at Friedman, I focused on International Nutrition Interventions. I had a bit of a unique opportunity in that I did not have to limit my course selection strategy to just one school. While aiming to strike a balance between more theory-based coursework and more hands-on and technical coursework, the approach I took and the perspective I maintain is that Fletcher largely served to further inform the wider context of working within the international system, while Friedman largely served to develop the specific technical knowledge that would inform my day-to-day work in nutrition and food security, though of course, there was some blurring of these lines.
Courses such as Actors in Global Governance with Dean Ian Johnstone and Political Economy of Development with Prof. Katrina Burgess were exceptional in broadening my understanding of the international context. As a Fletcher student, I also had the opportunity to enroll in a university seminar during my first semester called International Perspectives on Children in Exceptionally Difficult Circumstances (maybe the longest name of any course I've taken and what some of my friends will remember well as the course that made me cry every week), which served to provide more solid footing for the central purpose of my graduate studies.
Because my program spanned three years, I was able to spend two summers pursuing internships abroad: the first, with a small NGO named Sok Sabay in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, whose work is focused on early intervention for child trafficking; and the second, in Kinshasa and Bandundu Province, DR Congo, with Action Against Hunger, doing qualitative research on community-specific causes of malnutrition. Both have proved invaluable (directly and indirectly) in preparing me for the work I am doing now and in helping me to more narrowly define my scope of work as I (attempt to) plan my career.
After all of this, it's still easy to feel a bit scattered at times, and while I am loving learning about my new home and investing in my new community (and particularly loving mango season!), Fletcher remains solidly at my core. I am beyond grateful for the connectivity granted by Whatsapp and Skype and am not only continually inspired as I watch the work my dear friends and classmates have committed to, both back in the States and further afield, but am regularly reminded (by the delivery of a milk frother to aid in my latte-making efforts, updates about of the goings on of Corgis around the D.C. metro area, and emails marked URGENT detailing a lobster parade in Nova Scotia) just how caring, brilliant, and hilarious they are.

Faculty Spotlight: Antonia H. Chayes
By Jessica Daniels On January 23, 2015 · Leave a Comment · In Our Faculty
Last year, we turned the blog's focus to members of Fletcher's faculty. Kicking off the Faculty Spotlight series for 2015 is Antonia H. Chayes, Professor of Practice of International Politics and Law. Prof. Chayes currently teaches Civil-Military Relations and International Treaty Behavior: A Perspective on Globalization. Her post is a timely piece that demonstrates how professors can redirect their research focus when world events require.
The news story about hacking Sony Pictures dominated the holiday news. North Korea, allegedly, with its vast cyber skills, brought a major corporation to a dead halt, and moreover, exposed its seamier corporate life to a public, always voracious for gossip. President Obama promised a proportionate response — and put blame on Sony for pulling the picture from theaters after North Korea threatened dire consequences if the picture, a silly spoof on CIA assassination efforts in the hands of bumbling journalists, were released. Sony, and its independent theaters reconsidered, and a limited theater showing was made, accompanied by widespread home availability. Then North Korea's internet went down, and it has suffered short spurts of blackout. The attribution has remained cloudy, and speculation has abounded, including the notion that a Russian group engineered the original Sony cyber exploitation simply to stir up trouble.
Then come the pundits and analysts — is this cyber-terrorism or cybervandalism? Should this be considered another step toward cyberwar — part of the spreading inkblot of a grey area that is neither peace nor war? In fact, this is just a minor episode in an ongoing set of cyberattacks and counterattacks throughout the world. Banking firms have been hacked; cyber espionage from China has caused the U.S. to indict specific members of China's military (in absentia, of course) for cybercrimes. Have we forgotten that Estonia was brought to its knees by a cyberattack by the Russian youth group Nashe in 2007 over the removal of a statute of a Soviet soldier from the central square in Talinn?
The United States has spent billions preparing for cyberwar, yet the government lacks control of its critical infrastructure, which is most likely to be the target of an attack. 85-90% of that infrastructure in the United States and Western Europe is in private hands. The Department of Homeland Security has been anointed to take charge of private infrastructure, and an Executive Order and a Presidential Directive have been the only means to secure support from the private sector. Several bills were introduced in Congress to legislate minimum standards for private infrastructure, but these were defeated — even the mildest form of regulation. Thus private industry is expected to do on a voluntary basis what it managed to defeat as a matter of regulation. Nor it is clear which agency would run the show in a crisis — civilian or military. The disparity between the Department of Homeland Security, whose 2015 budget request was $1.5 billion, and the combined Cybercommand and NSA, request of $5.1 billion — is enormous.
Both agencies have engaged in real world simulations, and the results have not been exactly transparent. Some public reports, whose language is rather bland, suggest room for improvement. And further, U.S. Supreme Court precedents such as the "Steel Seizure" case under President Truman cast a long shadow, should the U.S. government try to seize control of private infrastructure in a crisis.
The problems posed by the whole range of cyber exploitation, from cybercrime to espionage, up to attacks — are international as well as national. There has been some progress in the NATO alliance — a Center of Excellence in Talinn, reinforcing broad concern over the attack on Estonia in 2007 and the Cyber Defense Management Board, where political, military, operational and technical staff operate at the working-level. The Talinn manual fits cyber issues into the vast canvas of international law, and is now under revision. At the NATO summit in Wales, September 2014, NATO announced an enhanced cyber strategy recognizing that a cyber attack might be as harmful as a conventional attack. It affirmed that cyber defense "is part of NATO's core task of self defense." but added that the decision to intervene would be made on a case-by-case basis. There is a fairly weak EU directive that urges states to take protective measures.
The Budapest convention addresses cybercrime, but in the context of urging state uniformity. These measures, admittedly weak, represent a beginning of international cooperative action. Many regional organizations are at similar stages.
At Fletcher, Professor Martel had been working with a group of faculty and students on several Codes of Conduct — for states, corporations, and individuals — at the request of Lincoln Laboratories. This kind of work is the essence of Fletcher's interdisciplinary experience. We must honor Bill's memory by continuing the work he so cared about.
A Code of Conduct is not yet regulation — it is a pledge of behavior whose aspiration is to change norms. For those of us participating in the project, we hope to get widespread adoption and will be seeking foundation funding to do so. Fletcher's strength in both international law and cyber studies puts us in a good position to move forward. And my forthcoming book, Borderless Wars: Civil Military Disorder and Legal Uncertainty concludes with a chapter on cyberattacks seeking more robust regulation, stating "Regulation of offensive cyberattacks cannot provide the same level of reassurance that intrusive verification of visible chemical or nuclear weapons production provides. But the very process of engaging in a widespread international cooperative effort has a deterrent effect, and may reduce, if not eliminate the threat of attack."

Deadline-plus-12-days report
By Jessica Daniels On January 22, 2015 · Leave a Comment · In General Admissions News
I'm starting to see a steady trickle of emails from nervous applicants, so I thought I'd provide a quick update on where we are in the process.
Let's start with those who applied by December 20 — PhD and Map Your Future applicants.
Map Your Future application review, a manageable task, has moved along and most decisions have been released. (Congratulations to those who have received good news!)
The PhD review process is also ticking right along, but at its own special glacial pace. PhD applications are reviewed by a whole team of people and everything just takes a long time. Decisions will be released by the end of March.
And for those who applied by January 10 for the MALD, MIB, LLM, or MA, we're making real progress. Many many of you already know that your application is complete and on its way to be read by Admissions Committee members. Our student readers have been doing a great job, feeding applications to us staff members, and we're all reading away. The full Admissions Committee will meet tomorrow for the first time since the January deadline. In other words, it's all happening.
If you know that your application is still incomplete, I'd encourage you to do whatever you can to make it complete as soon as possible. If you're missing exam scores (GRE, GMAT, etc.), you can't make the testing organizations work faster, but you can send us unofficial score reports. And if you're missing a transcript, remember that all we need is a scanned copy of an official transcript (which you may well have already). If you don't have an official transcript, send us an unofficial one while you wait for the official one.
If you're missing a recommendation, you should consider your options. If you're confident the recommender will send it along any day, then stick with Plan A. If you're not really all that sure, you may want to line up a replacement recommender. Give it some thought, and contact us if you want to make a change. Of course, if you've never followed up with your recommender, you can hardly blame him/her. It's your job to prompt your writer to submit the letter on time.
Finally, no matter when your application was complete, you'll still need to be patient until late March, when we will release just about everything at the same time. Today's post is just to let you know that everything is moving along, and we're feeling good about the progress we have made.
Although the majority of students start their studies and go straight through the relevant number of semesters on campus, plenty of students opt to pursue a dual degree or exchange program, or even take time away to work. Jessica Meckler, who started the MALD program in September 2013, is doing just that. Here's her story.
One of Fletcher's greatest strengths is its often-lauded flexibility. Many other students have talked about the variety of courses and concentrations that allow students to personalize their degree to fit their professional goals, so there isn't a need to elaborate on that. However, the opportunity to take a leave of absence from Fletcher is another particularly useful aspect to the degree program that I would love to see highlighted more.
There are many reasons to take a leave of absence from your graduate studies: fellowships, scholarships, internships, and job opportunities. Some of my batch mates have taken a semester off. Others, including myself, have taken the entire academic year to pursue additional experiences that expand upon our Fletcher studies.
I am currently living and working in Pune, India as an American India Foundation William J. Clinton Fellow. The organization that I have been placed with for my 10-month fellowship is the Akanksha Foundation, an educational NGO that runs schools and after-school centers for children from low-income communities in Pune and Mumbai.
I decided to apply for the fellowship in December 2013. Throughout the course of my first semester, I had become increasingly aware of how my limited experience in the field affected my ability to connect the theories and skills we study at Fletcher with the reality of international development work. I was encouraged by several professors to pursue a field internship for the summer, and with my interest in Design, Monitoring, and Evaluation (DM&E), Prof. Scharbatke-Church was candid and helpful in explaining ways to supplement my previous experiences. I figured that if a summer was a good idea, why not a full year?
The application process for the AIF Clinton Fellowship was a lengthy endeavor. I submitted my written application in January 2014 and was interviewed at the end of April. I did not learn that I would be joining the 2014-2015 AIF cohort until June, when I was already living in Dhaka, Bangladesh and interning with BRAC for the summer! I was extremely grateful for the ease with which Fletcher students can apply for a leave of absence. It made the process of preparing to move to India while in Bangladesh a little simpler.
One chronic worry that arises often when I talk to people about my time off from school is the idea of falling out of the "student mode." While in a way this fellowship is a break from the hectic schedule of all Fletcher students, I see the work that I do at the Akanksha Foundation as a crucial aspect to my Fletcher education. In Pune I am assisting with several curriculum and program assessments, curriculum design, system creation and implementation, and teacher training. My work draws upon the skills that I learned during my first year at Fletcher, such as the ideas and principles from the DM&E modular series, and I have greater clarity regarding my goals for my second year at Fletcher. There are specific skills and courses, such as Nancy Hite's Survey Design in Comparative Political Economy and Jenny Aker's Econometric Impact Evaluation for Development, that I will focus on when I return to Boston. Additionally, I am using my year away from Fletcher to continue a project – which will hopefully double as a significant portion of my capstone – that I began in Dhaka.
Although only four months have passed since moving to India, I am confident that my work here will have a profound impact on my future studies and career. Taking time off was invaluable for me, and it has given me the time and space necessary to contextualize the onslaught of new ideas that a year at Fletcher brings. While it is very strange to imagine Medford without the familiar faces that I have come to associate with Fletcher, I am equally excited to return to school in September as I am to stay in India for six more months!

Fletcher skiers, snowboarders, and those who like to get away spent this past weekend at Sugarloaf Mountain in Maine. Travelers returned with many happy reports of the weekend. One of the participants, Dallin — a second-year MALD student — grabbed some photos for me to share. Though Albert and Ilana (top and middle photos below) are both snowboarding, I hear that the group tilted toward skiing. Regardless of their ski/snowboard preference, everyone (except those who sat cozily by the fire) bundled up. It was COLD on Saturday.
Alex's first semester: Small school, big opportunities
By Jessica Daniels On January 16, 2015 · Leave a Comment · In Our Students
Our Student Stories bloggers are back on campus and checking in. Today, Alex reflects on his first semester in the MIB program.
My first semester at The Fletcher School was quite an experience: immersing myself in my business and energy classes, getting to know my accomplished and passionate classmates, and participating in events with Nobel laureates.
First and foremost, I have been struck by the immediate and tangible benefits of being a part of such a small, tightly knit school. Let me give you a couple examples of these benefits from my experience so far:
Small Classes, Meaningful Discussions
Many of my classes were quite small, facilitating open and deep discussions, as well as fostering much more meaningful relationships with professors.
One example was my Managing the Global Corporation course taught by Prof. Thoman, F67, whose accomplishments and accolades include being the CEO of Xerox and Nabisco, the CFO of IBM, and a recipient of the French Legion d'Honneur. Instead of just teaching us analytical frameworks pulled from textbooks or reviewing business cases of other people's experiences, Prof. Thoman helped us understand how decisions are actually made in the C-suite, based on examples from his own extraordinary career. This class only had a dozen students.
Another example was my Climate Change and Clean Energy Policy class taught by Prof. Kates-Garnick, F84, who was the Undersecretary of Energy for Massachusetts. As Massachusetts has one of the most advanced and successful clean energy policies in the U.S., Prof. Kates-Garnick is precisely the type of person you want to learn about energy policy from. Instead of simply discussing theoretical policies, she put us in the decision-maker's seat and had us consider the tough trade-offs associated with different options. This class only had seven students.
The opportunity to take courses sitting around such a small table with industry forerunners and policy makers with real-world experience reaffirmed that this school is not just teaching us theory; Fletcher truly is a school for practitioners, taught by practitioners.
Exclusive Conferences, Valuable Insights
As part of this focus on staying connected to the real world outside the halls of academia, Fletcher encourages us to attend the plethora of conferences hosted in Boston. A great thing about Fletcher, however, is that it can help you get into the ones that actually matter.
For example, Prof. Kates-Garnick invited me to a small private conference held jointly by The Fletcher School and the Harvard Kennedy School for one of the biggest oil and gas companies in the world. The meeting, attended by the top energy minds of the two schools and the top executives of this global firm, was an eye-opening experience on how corporations inform and conduct their highest-level strategic planning process. I was impressed by the executives' grasp of international affairs (it came as little surprise that some were Fletcher graduates), and was reminded of the value of the Master of International Business (MIB) degree I am pursuing.
I was also able to attend a cleantech conference with the leading businessmen and women in Boston thanks to a generous grant from Fletcher's Center for International Environment and Resource Policy. Just about every other person at the conference was a president or CEO, while I was one of only three students able to attend, due to the cost. Access to the event proved invaluable, however, both in terms of the content of the panel discussions and the contacts I established; I left with an internship for the next semester doing research for a private equity fund acquiring wind farms across North America.
Not only are these types of conferences interesting, they provide access to the fields students are interested in, and to the people who shape those fields. If it had not been for Fletcher, I would not have been able to attend, or even have heard of, these conferences.
Fletcher is a small school that delivers monumental output. The professors and events students have access to are but a couple of the benefits of attending a small school. It is these types of opportunities that ensures that students are at the leading edge of their fields, and that The Fletcher School stays at the forefront of the world's most pressing issues.

Our friend Bill
By Jessica Daniels On January 15, 2015 · 8 Comments · In About Fletcher, Our Faculty
Fletcher students, alumni, faculty, and staff learned on Monday that Prof. Bill Martel had passed away. The community has received the news with tremendous collective sadness, reaching out to each other for help in understanding something that seems impossible to understand.
Bill made his mark at Fletcher, especially on the student community, in so many different ways. He taught and advised a great number of students. His focus on cyber security drew additional students to consult him on their research. He joined the annual ski trip for a day of skiing, and he is known to have enjoyed the chili served at the Mugar Café — a typical indicator that he didn't simply buy his lunch and run.
The Fletcher faculty is loaded with nice people, but in any group of nice people, someone can still be the nicest. Bill was the nicest. As he walked through the building, he greeted everyone by name. If he didn't recognize someone, he introduced himself. With his incredible ice-blue eyes, he transmitted kindness and warmth. He was one of those very rare individuals in the world about whom everyone had something good to say.
Bill was a true friend to the Admissions Office, and we loved working with him. He served three years as chair of the Committee on Admissions, and created an atmosphere of warmth and respect. He valued hearing what students and staff members had to say — no claims of faculty privilege for him. He checked with us to be sure he was doing all he could, and we needed to struggle not to take advantage of his generosity.
Even in this past year, when he was dealing with a serious illness, Bill made a special effort to stay on top of Admissions news. We would gleefully have welcomed him back to the Admissions Committee, but the dean decided to give him a light committee assignment load (like us, I'm sure, struggling not to take advantage of Bill's willingness to jump in where he was needed). When Bill and I exchanged emails in September, we both said we'd look forward to working together again on the Admissions Committee in 2015-16. I truly meant it.
Unlike those who follow a typical path for a professor, taking a permanent position shortly after completing a PhD, Bill came to Fletcher with a rich teaching background, including a long stint at the Naval War College. As a result of joining Fletcher relatively late in his career, Bill was granted tenure only last May. Also in the spring, he was selected to receive the James L. Paddock Teaching Award. Because of his illness, he couldn't accept the award in person, but he had his friend and colleague, Prof. Shultz, read his speech of thanks, in which he referred to students as the "center of gravity" at Fletcher, and emphasized the importance of a positive "can-do" attitude. I'm sure I'm not the only one who is grateful that Bill received these honors at a time when he might most appreciate them.
Bill will be formally remembered here at Fletcher in the spring. But even outside of formal opportunities for remembrance, Bill will be on the minds, and in the hearts, of all of us who knew him. Truly the nicest of men. An inspiration. And a real friend to the Admissions Office. We'll miss him greatly.
Every summer the Registrar's Office compiles the Course Bulletin that students pore over before they select their classes and which, inevitably, is out of date shortly after it's printed. So each semester there's a Bulletin Addendum, listing only one or two missed offerings in the fall, but often a longer list in the spring. The list we just received for Spring 2015 includes such interesting classes that I thought I would share it with you. I'll provide the titles and course numbers, and you can find more info on the Course Descriptions page of the website.

Early reading day
By Jessica Daniels On January 13, 2015 · Leave a Comment · In General Admissions News
On Sunday I made a last-minute decision to jump-start my application reading on Monday. We've often written about our "reading days" at home. Past posts have always involved piles of green files (and, occasionally, cute dogs). These days, no paper files! Here's how my day went.
7:30: Move a laptop to a kitchen counter, grab a cup of mint tea in favorite frog mug, and kick off the day, starting with a quick review of email but soon moving on to the applications that were waiting for me in my queue.
9:30: The pain in my shoulder from being perched over a keyboard tells me it's time for a break. Switch to coffee (half caf/half decaf — I want to be alert but you wouldn't want me too jumpy) in a theme-appropriate mug. Do shoulder rolls while switching to another location — a desktop with a more comfortable chair.
12:00: I've now cleared out my queue, which means I can start plucking applications at random. But first, lunch — a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. So far as I'm concerned, peanut butter is always #1, and being at home means I can toast the bread for the sandwich.
1:00: After lunch, I read another couple of files, but at 1:00 it's time to park myself somewhere warm and comfortable for a conference call. After the call, I switch back to the laptop, but on a different counter — changing chairs throughout the day is part of my reading strategy. More tea in yet another world-map mug.
3:30: Emails distract me for a while. Once I regain focus, I return to my application queue and try to finish whatever I've loaded in there.
4:45: That's it for the day. Time to put together a quick dinner and then head out to a meeting of a community board I'm on. A little human interaction (and a chance to be outside) won't be a bad thing.
There are so many great things about our new online application reader system, but I'm still working on strategies for pain-free reading. More changes of chair? More cups of tea? By the end of this year's application cycle, I'll have it all worked out. Meanwhile, I've already read some inspiring essays and I know there's more to come!

American fans of British superspy and international man of mystery Johnny English had a opportunity to see real life British spies in a New York courtroom where Abid Naseer is accused of 'plotting'.
However, our MI5 'spies', who usually never dare leave the safety of the UK, are so terrified that the Taliban or al Qaeda will launch an attack in Britain to kill or harm them that they insisted upon wearing disguises in court.
The judge agreed that they could wear wigs and make-up.
Both male and female 'spies' have appeared to give evidence.

I am interesting in: can i load 32bit x86 dll as a second AppDomain into 64 bit application environment?
For more details:
1) Main exe is 64 bit C# pure .net 4 app;
2) Module is third party .net 2.0 wrapper of some unmanaged x86 dll;
So can i create second 32bit AppDomain in 64bit .net 4 process and load 32bit module into new created 32bit AppDomain? And then marshal between default 64bit AppDomain and second 32bit AppDomain?
Thank you for any advice!

So I finally got my hands on some kegs which I just finished cutting the tops in. I have all my ss valves, bulkheads, and cam locks to install before the weekend when I hope to brew my first batch in them (2 kegs for 2 batches). I am not sure if I'm doing two 12 gallon batches or two 5 gallon. But my problem is do not have the cooling system worked out yet. I have an immersion chiller I use for my 7 gallon kettle but I am sure it won't fit in the keggles because of the depth. Any ideas?
Here are my thoughts:
1 - scramble to build a new immersion chiller before the weekend.
2 - bend my existing small chiller to try and get it to work.
3 - order a plate chiller and pay expedited shipping (and use gravity to move the wort).
4 - just wait till I get my ducks in a row.
I would use your existing chiller as is if you can at least get it below the wort level. It doesn't need to sit on the bottom to work, but you will want to stir the wort around while it's chilling (like you should be doing with your 7 gal kettle anyway).
Another option would be to tear apart your IC and make a CFC out of it. At least those parts are all readily available at your local big box hardware store.
Since the other comments have argued for other methods (which I think would be fine) I'll just chime in and say I love the plate chiller I use. I gravity feed although I think I'll eventually get a pump also.
Thanks for the input everyone. I am leaning towards trying to modify my existing ic to tide me over for now. In the meantime I am going to start pricing copper tubing.
I wouldn't use a plate chiller without a pump, personally.
I would echo earlier comments to use the existing immersion chiller and stir. You don't have to get the wort down to pitching temps...just get it as cool as you can, and then rack to the fermenter and put it in whatever you use to maintain fermentation temps to cool the rest of the way before aerating & pitching. Stirring gently while you chill will help a lot.
Ok, this is weird.
I started reading this thread and thought I had started it.
BUllGator: Gimme back my avatar! LOL.
Nah, you can keep it if you want. I'll just keep getting weirded out thinking I'm writing posts I'm not writing.

You got me as well. Had to do a double take.
But now mine is gone for some reason. I smell something fishy....
i use my pump to start the flow of wort going through my plate chiller then i turn it off, works great and the wort goes from boiling to the low 60's in one pass. this works best with leaf hops since i have a hopstopper that i still have a bit of trouble with when using pellet hops.

"People who cannot invent and reinvent themselves must be content with borrowed postures, secondhand ideas, fitting in instead of standing out." Someone's always said it better. That's Warren G. Bennis, surely looking into his crystal ball and offering a succinct summation about the tenets of BIT.TRIP BEAT. Or maybe he's talking about life in general, I'm not really sure. At any rate, it fits because BIT.TRIP BEAT (BTB) is as surefire a reinvention as you are going to see in video games. BTB takes Pong and turns it into a rhythm game. If I could come up with ideas that brilliant, I'd probably be a multi-million dollar developer, too. Indie devs get paid tons of cash, right? I think it's in their contracts or something.
Even if they aren't really millionaires, those guys at Gaijin sure do know how to make a unique game. In BTB you control a pong paddle, constantly deflecting balls flying towards your (paddle's) face that also happen to compose the stage music when successfully deflected. Block enough balls, and you'll get a high score while being treated to some decidedly well-composed chiptunes. Muck it all up, however, and the game will make it a point to remind you of how boring the original Pong's presentation is and what a favor they are doing for you by updating it. It's an inspired way to refurbish an age-old idea that everyone is familiar with. The core mechanic is simple, but the way in which it is presented is a stroke of genius.
Presentation is, after all, what makes BTB so unique. The visuals and audio form a cohesive feedback unit, offering an effective manner of letting the player know exactly how he or she is doing. All those pleasing bleeps and bloops are gone if you can't put bat to ball, and that's the last thing you want to happen when the music is so damn enjoyable. The visuals, though simple, are very trippy and colorful, and follow the music like ducks in a pond. The "last chance before you die" phase offers up a stark 70's black and white palette that will immediately send you into panic mode. You can always measure your success by what you see and hear alone. Color and sound combine to offer a universal readout that engrosses the player, allowing them to focus purely on the task at hand.
It all comes together quite nicely, and the brevity ensures that the spell's cast never outstays its welcome. We are talking about Pong, after all. Any more than three levels is likely to wear on most gamers, especially with the sensory overload here. I welcome more music tracks, but a game like this is long-term enjoyment only for the most ardent score chasers and perfectionists. For everybody else, it's worth experiencing at least once, just to see what very creative people can do with a very old and basic concept.

"By taking a cautious, step-wise approach to this research, we are ensuring the safety of both mothers and their infants," said Dr. Beigi. "Our overall goal is to find a product that women can safely use to protect against HIV during all stages of pregnancy and motherhood."
Researchers will enroll approximately 105 HIV-negative mother-infant pairs. For the pregnancy group, researchers will initially enroll 45 women between 37 and 39 weeks gestation and randomize them to receive tenofovir gel or a placebo gel. The women will apply one dose of their assigned study product (tenofovir gel or placebo gel) for seven consecutive days and undergo evaluation for side effects. Provided there are no safety concerns, researchers will then enroll a second group of 45 pregnant women who will follow the same seven-day regimen. The second group of women will enter the study earlier in their third trimester -- between 34 and 36 weeks gestation. For the group of breastfeeding women, all 15 participants who are enrolled will use tenofovir gel daily for seven days.
The researchers plan to evaluate the safety of the drug and assess how much active drug is absorbed during pregnancy and subsequently transferred to the fetus. In breastfeeding mothers, the researchers will also measure drug levels in breast milk and assess whether the drug is transferred to the baby. Depending on results of the study, which are expected in late 2012, the re
