We are Will (black sweater) and Roy (green sweater) and have been together since 2000! Greetings and we hope we can share our wonderful Palm Springs condo with you as your home away from home. We moved to California in 2007 from Texas and have not looked back since...we love the weather and all that this wonderful state has to offer. We mainly reside in San Francisco and own and operate our condo independently so when you rent as our guest, you truly get the owners and not a service. Let us know how we can be of service!
Will Sanson purchased this condo in 2010
Palm Springs is amazing and if you have never visited, we definitely encourage a stay in this wonderful valley. From a 'lost in time' feeling and plentiful resort accommodations, there is nothing you cannot do while visiting PS...that's why we call ours, PS! I love You.
Our property is fabulous! The HOA keeps the entire complex pristine and the community itself is relaxing and quiet. Most of the time you will feel as if you have the entire place to yourself... Come, give it a try!!
Great location for downtown Palm Springs and convenient to grocery shopping. Very nice grounds with pools, laundry room and exercise area
This 3br unit is in a very central location and in a well maintained complex. We spent the month of March and had the ability to have friends and family visit with us. Friendly and inclusive neighbors added to the atmosphere of the stay. The unit has been updated and was complete in all aspects except if you cook in a lot it could have used a few more items. Owner Will was very attentive to our needs and easy to deal with. Unit also has very private patio which, except for the street noise, was a plus. Excellent value sorry it was rented already for next year.
We stayed in this unit for two months during which time our children and granddaughter visited. We found the condo to be as pictured on the website; the unit was clean and fully supplied. The layout is ideal for company as it affords them maxmum privacy.
The complex is in an excellant location with easy access to the airport, major grocery stores and within walking distance to downtown palm springs. The grounds are very well maintained and we were impressed with the cleanliness of the heated pools.
The owner we dealt with (Will) was very accomodating and minor problems that were brought to his attention were dealt with and resolved.
The complex is home to residents and "snowbirds" who are very friendly.....We enjoyed our stay and would recommend this condo
Excellent experience! Very professionally managed in all aspects. Unit is very functional, tastefully decorated, well supplied, clean and well cared for. Recreational facilities are excellent, and again well maintained. A BBQ located at the unit, verses the community one, is the only suggestion we would make. Location is great, close to all day to day shopping needs, albeit a little noisy during peak traffic times. The neighbouring residents, visitors, etc., were all very friendly and helpfull. Ourselves and our guests enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this unit.
We enjoyed our stay at Ranch club Estates. The location is really great since it is close to many downtown attractions and restaurants. Our favorite closeby reataurant wass John Henry's located at Sunrise and Taquitz. There are also a lot of close-by golf courses and I was able to get some reasonable green fees by going to standbygolf.com.
The unit was nicely furnished and most everything was available for use except a washer and dryer but there is a coin operated laundry footsteps away on the unit..
The HD TV's and included phone/Wi--Fi internet were nice features. When we arrived the phones weren't operating and after contacting Will we purchased new ones and were reimbursed.
We really enjoyed the spacious private patio for outdoors dining.The unit layout was such that the guest bedrooms are in a separate portion of the unit which is a nice privacy feature when you have visitors. The grounds at Ranch Club are nicely maintained and attractive and there is no shortage of very nice, large swimming pools which didn't appear to ever be crowded.
Upon our arrival we were pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness of the unit and it felt like my own house right away...everthing was as it was defined only the photo's did not do it justice. We had friends visit us on a couple of occasions and said what a nice unit this was. The laundry facility was about 50 paces away with new machines, great tennis courts, the pools were perfect in both temperature and maintenance. We picked grapefruit, oranges and tangerines from the trees which were in the complex. The kitchen was very well equipped, All was well and we had a wonderful vacation at our home away from home.
Golf courses abound... Palm Springs Museum of Art is quite a wonderful find. The Spa Casino is always fun. Thursday evening Village Fest the main street is closed to traffic allowing street vendors and pedestrians to walk the main avenue. Convention center usually has great activities. International film festival in January. Music festival in April. State and national parks are very close by for hiking, biking and climbing.

WOW ... It's mid-March and the Madness has begun already. Go UK!! (mja)
I enjoy the quiet winter evenings tying flies, watching fly fishing videos on You-Tube and repairing gear from the previous year. Of course, we at NKFF typically fish year round, but we also use the winter months to hone our skills. As such, we have two of our popular education events coming up:
The Beginner Fly Tying classes are over and it was a very good group of students this year. We're looking into doing a Sunday afternoon in a month or so to do several more flies for a single afternoon ... maybe every two or three months.
On Saturday, Feb. 28th, we hosted a Members Only Advanced Flyfishing Clinic that focused on tactics, flies, reading, alternatives to (very boring) high-stick nymphing, streamer fishing, correct gear setup and balance. This was held at the Boone County MAIN Library on KY-18 (big copper dome) and, by all accounts from the ten students, it was a great class.

March 21st: Mike Arnold had his inaugural kayak trip at CAMP ERNST LAKE Saturday morning - caught one trout on a brown wooly bugger, got one bass to the boat but couldn't land it (on an ultra-light spinning outfit no less), tested the anchor system and new seat ... and didn't swear once (or any other number). Guys walking the shoreline did a little better than Mike's numbers. It was just good to get out (although a little windy and still pretty cool).

A stingy fisherman always makes his three young helpers do all his work. One day he scolds the lazy boys for forgetting to provide lunch. Dont worry, they say. We can make stone soup. The boys dig a hole and fill it with water and flavored stones. They trick the fisherman into making bowls and chopsticks, and fetching salt and sesame oil. While hes busy, they stir in bird eggs, add wild vegetables, and slip fish into the soup. By the time the old man returns, they have a feast fit for a king. To this day, Egg Drop Stone Soup is a traditional dish in southeast China. A recipe is included.
Ying Chang Compestine grew up in China. She is the author of cookbooks for adults and children's books that introduce Chinese culture and food, including The Real Story of Stone Soup. She lives with her family in California.

I know, I know… I'm a few months late, but better late than never.
On my quest of ૐ शान्ति: शान्ति: शान्ति:, I've realized one of the most important things – none of it is possible unless I make a commitment to myself. This commitment requires a lot of significant change… change that I know at times will make me uncomfortable, but it is so necessary.
The biggest obstacle of finding peace within the reality that I live in, I honestly need to learn to love all the things in my life… good and bad. I've spent a lot of my time only letting people see the happy me, that I've neglected the darker parts of my life. The constant portrayal that my life is superb is honestly far from the truth. I have moments in the dark (granted not often). The lack of transparency to me as a whole person has made me a tad resentful, and lately, sad. I find that when I allow myself to be vulnerable, weak, down, dark in the presence of others, I am given my own advice… to just work through it. However, repressing my vulnerability is also repressing a part of me as a whole person.
I often feel like lonely because I do not have many, including my closest friends, are so used to me always getting back on my feet with a perma-grin. Some moments though, I just want to be like everyone else: to be able to feel all emotions, not just the positive ones. I want to be able to cry and have a shoulder to cry on. I want to be able to vent when I have a bad day. I want to laugh because I feel like laughing. I want to smile because I feel like smiling. I just want to be human.
When on a path to be fulfilled, yes we do need to learn to let go… but what is there to let go when we don't allow ourselves to experience life? Yes, life is beautiful – but it also has its moments of melancholy. It's those moments of darkness that make the light that much brighter.
Today, I want to make a commitment to myself to allow myself to experience the HUMAN experience.

Beckenbauer feels for Heynckes
Tue, 29 Jan 2013 11:43:00
Bayern Munich honorary president Franz Beckenbauer understands Jupp Heynckes' annoyance over the media attention directed towards the summer arrival of Pep Guardiola.
The Spaniard will replace the retiring Heynckes at the helm of the Bavarian giants, who under the 67-year-old are nine points clear at the top of the Bundesliga.
Guardiola's impending arrival has overshadowed the current incumbent's work at Bayern, much to the frustration of Heynckes.
Beckenbauer, who had two spells in charge of Bayern, knows the pressures of managing the Bavarians only too well and sympathises with Heynckes' frustration that the current side are not credit their form deserves.
"Definitely! Jupp puts up a winning streak like never before - and then the talk is only of Guardiola. That would annoy me too," Beckenbauer told German newspaper Bild, before explaining why he felt Guardiola elected to join Bayern and the challenges he will face at the Allianz Arena.
"Bayern are a greater challenge for Guardiola than Chelsea. We have no (Roman) Abramovich (the English club's billionaire owner)," he said.
"In Bavaria there is also the chance for Guardiola to improve something. We need fast switching play, to hold the majority of possession, put the opponent under constant pressure. Dortmund are currently closer to Barcelona than we are "

The arrival of Jessica Simpson's baby has transcended the pop world. Even country stars are taking notice of the fact that Simpson has finally given birth.

When Eric Church is onstage, he feels pretty cool performing to thousands of fans screaming his name. When he's offstage, it's someone else screaming his name — and that's the best thing in the world.

NHL Game Day: 2-7-15 Kings at LightningSubmitted by pete on February 7, 2015 - 19:59
Whose idea was it to start a game at 5 pm?
Ben Bishop allowed 3 goals on 9 shots for the loss before giving way to Andrei Vasilevskiy, who allowed 1 goal on 20 shots the rest of the way. Sadly, Vasiy couldn't make that 1 more key stop he needed to give the team a real chance to complete the comeback bid.
First Period
1:33 LAK Toffoli (14), (unassisted)
12:30 LAK Williams (14), (Lewis, Muzzin)
19:58 LAK Doughty (5), (Regehr, Kopitar)
Second Period
0:58 TB Kucherov (19), (unassisted)
Third Period
1:34 TB Hedman (7), (Callahan)
7:46 LAK Williams (15), (Gaborik, Regehr)
Nikita Kucherov was the game's third star.
The Lightning just didn't show up mentally until the game was already 3-0 at the end of the First Period. Chalk it up to the early start tonight, perhaps, but it was unacceptable. They need to be ready to go from the jump tomorrow against the Ducks or they'll have zero chance.
Luke Witkowski was +1 with 2 hits and 1 blocked shot in 15:22. He, unfortunately, fell down trying to backtrack on a Filppula turnover on the first goal against, but was otherwise quiet, as usual.
Nikita Nesterov had 2 shots, 1 hit, and 1 blocked shot in 17:15. He was very active on the first shift of the Second Period, with the resulting pressure ending up in Kucherov's goal.

NHL Game Night: 2-5-15 Lightning at StarsSubmitted by pete on February 5, 2015 - 23:28
Snatching victory from the jaws of defeat.
Andrei Vasilevskiy shined, allowing 3 goals on 36 shots for the victory. The Lightning would've had zero chance of winning tonight without Vasilevskiy.
First Period
3:11 TB Stamkos (28), (Callahan, Barberio)
6:42 TB Hedman (6), (Stamkos)
Second Period
15:21 DAL Klingberg (10), (Seguin, Goligoski)
15:36 DAL Goligoski (2), (Fiddler, Horcoff)
Third Period
12:27 TB Johnson (18), (Kucherov, Killorn)(PP)
13:41 DAL Daley (13), (Ja. Benn, Demers)
16:23 TB Johnson (19), (Boyle, Palat)
18:43 TB Kucherov (18), (Palat)(EN)
Tyler Johnson and Steven Stamkos were the game's first and third stars. Brian Boyle was robbed.
This was, in many ways, role reversal from the Lightning's performance in St. Louis. The Lightning were on their heels most of the night, ultimately getting outshot 36-29, and probably should've been run out of the barn if it weren't for the goaltending they got from Vasiy. Then things got really weird when Jason Garrison got hurt, forcing Brian Boyle to take shifts on defense where he made the play of the game on a clean check on Jamie Benn at center ice that eventually led to his point shot that was deflected in by Johnson for the GWG. Yes, Brian Boyle, from the point, on defense (not in the Conservatory with the Candlestick). Honestly, you can't feel too guilty about it because they deserved so much better against the Blues. So, things evened out on this little mini trip.
Unfortunately, if Garrison's injury is of any real severity, it puts the Lightning in a very tough spot with the California trip looming. Yzerman's basically got a week to bring someone in or he'll have to do something he probably doesn't want to do like raid the already thin cupboard in Syracuse. Paging Slater Koekkoek?
Luke Witkowski was -1 with 2 penalty minutes and 1 hit in 13:47. It was a hard luck minus with Daley's shot off the rush hitting Witkowski's leg and deflecting past Vasiy.

NHL game Night: 2-3-15 Lightning at BluesSubmitted by pete on February 3, 2015 - 22:54
Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.
Ben Bishop allowed 2 goals on 18 shots for the OT loss. It's a bitter pill to swallow, but I can't really fault Ben on either goal.
First Period
5:20 TB Paquette (11), (Killorn, Drouin)
Second Period
Third Period
16:50 STL Tarasenko (26), (Stastny)
1:16 STL Schwartz (18), (Butler, Elliott)
That hurt bad. That hurt really bad. The Lightning absolutely dominated almost the entire game. They outshop St. Louis 31-17 in regulation, and the chances were about that lopsided. Elliot made about a half dozen sparkling saves for the Blues and the Lightning continued to sputter on the PP, going 0-for-3 on the game. They just could not get the insurance marker and allowed the Blues to tie it off a clean faceoff loss by Brian Boyle, and in OT the defense just got out of sorts trying to stop a 2-on-2 rush situation, and in the end they left 1 point they should've gotten on the rink.
Jonathan Drouin had a helper and was +1 with 1 hit in 15:42. He also set up Cedric Paquette with a long stretch pass in the Third Period that nearly became the key insurance marker, but Elliot stood up to the task. Tonight's game marks Drouin's graduation from prospect status on the website.
Luke Witkowski was +1 with 1 hit and 2 blocked shots in 14:20. He plays like a guy who understands his athletic limitations and plays efficiently within his boundaries. He moves the puck quickly to make sure he doesn't put himself in bad spots. He'll give a guy a pop if its there, but he won't go running out of position to do it because he knows he doesn't necessarily have the recovery speed to get away with it. He's just played like a smart, lower pair stay-at-homer so far.

NHL Game Night: 1-31-15 Blue Jackets at LightningSubmitted by pete on January 31, 2015 - 22:40
Bishop saves the day.
Ben Bishop allowed 1 goal on 35 shots for the victory. With the Lightning playing flat as a pancake in front of him, Bishop made a handful of key stops to give his club the time to pull away in the Third Period. Make no mistake, though, Bishop was the margin in this one and the game was closer than the scoreboard indicates.
First Period
19:36 TB Connolly (9), (Morrow, Garrison)
Second Period
Third Period
10:02 TB Paquette (10), (Drouin, Killorn)
11:43 TB Filppula (10), (unassisted)
16:34 CBJ Johansen (19), (Savard, Murray)
Bishop, Jason Garrison, and Ryan Callahan were the game's three stars.
I can't help but be a little alarmed at how flat the Lightning have played recently going into games against lower-tier opponents like Carolina, Columbus, etc. There's some bad habits and a little bit of laziness/lack of focus (particularly on their continually awful PP) that crops up in these games that you don't see as much of against the big boys like Detroit. The mark of the really elite clubs is that they play their game regardless of who they're lining it up against, but that hasn't been the case lately for the Lightning. They'll need to get over that if they want to progress to the next level on their way to becoming a championship caliber team. Finding some sort of identity/concept on the PP would be a nice addition, too.
Cedric Paquette had a goal (GWG), 3 shots, and 1 hit in 13:53. He was also 67% on draws. That's 5 goals in the last 3 games. Tonight was Cedric's 41st game of the season, which graduates him from prospect status here on the website. We've been online (officially) since the '05-'06 season, and in 9.5 seasons of hockey I can't recall a prospect hitting their graduation threshold with this kind of flair. You can't help but feel wonderful for the young man who was an overage 4th rounder who got passed over completely in his first draft year and had to work so hard to improve his skating to make it to the league, where he's now flourishing.
Jonathan Drouin had a helper and was +1 with 1 shot in 13:29. It's lost in the meteoric rise of Cedric Paquette, but Drouin's got 4 helpers and is +4 in the last 3 games, as well. He's got 1 more game to go to graduate from prospect status on the website, too, and he's showing signs of finally starting to settle into the league now.
Luke Witkowski was +2 with 1 shot in 12:33. Not noticable = very good for a rookie defenseman.

NHL Game Night: 1-20-15 Canucks at LightningSubmitted by pete on January 20, 2015 - 22:35
On a night of farcical officiating, Espo's Rule holds true.
Ben Bishop allowed 1 goal on 28 shots for the victory. He made a couple of really key saves on the PK that allowed the Lightning to keep the game even and eventually pull away with the win.
First Period
Second Period
13:32 TB Filppula (9), (Stamkos, Callahan)
Third Period
0:11 TB Killorn (10), (Hedman, Filppula)
4:16 TB Boyle (9), (Connolly, Morrow)
8:09 VAN Corrado (1), (Burrows, Higgins)
17:34 TB Killorn (11), (Paquette, Hedman)(EN)
Valtteri Filppula, Alex Killorn, and Jason Garrison were the game's three stars. I'm shocked to see that neither Paul Devorski or Dan O'Halloran got tapped for the honor, because they clearly are the ones people buy tickets and show up to see (or so they appeared to think so, tonight).
The last 40 minutes of that game were an abomination, officiating-wise, from start to finish. I think the refs got paid by the call tonight, because they made a slew of ticky tack bookings that ultimately chopped the game up and made it less enjoyable. When you sprinkle in an icing call on the Boyle goal that probably shouldn't have been waved off and a couple of bad calls resulting in Canucks 5-on-3 and 4-on-3 opportunities, neither side can feel good about their treatment by the zebras tonight. Everybody has a hard night on the job, but those two periods were just B-A-D for the zebras.
Ultimately, though, Espo's Rule held up. Espo's Rule, simply stated, is that the team that fails to convert a 5-on-3 nearly always loses. Vancouver had a pair of 5-on-3 opportunities in this game and thanks to Bishop's goaltending on the first and some Radim Vrbata lumberjack-ery on the second, the Lightning got the kills and won the game. It's a good thing, too, because they did zippo with the power play opportunities they had, making this a much closer game than it should've been given the possession advantage the team mostly enjoyed.
Cedric Paquette had a helper and 2 penalty minutes to go with 1 shot, 1 hit, and 4 blocked shots in 14:12. He was also 56% on draws and continues to be entrusted by Cooper when it comes to key shifts late in games.
Jonathan Drouin was -1 with 2 penalty minutes and 1 hit in 10:22.
Luke Witkowski had 2 blocked shots in 14:29 in his NHL debut. He wasn't terribly noticeable, which is a good thing for a rookie defenseman. If you did focus in on him, though, he did a good job of moving the puck quickly and not putting himself in bad positions where he'd have to make plays under duress. Smart man.
Nikita Nesterov had 2 shots and 2 hits in 13:39. He ended up having to be fitted for a full shield after taking a high stick.
All in all, between Witkowski, Nesterov, and Sustr, I thought this younger D-corps did well in their first sans-Carle, sans-Gudas test run. They held Vancouver to 1 goal and under 30 SOG's, and you can't complain to much about that result.

We stayed in cozy cabin15 which had a kitchenette with the necessary cooking supplies & dinnerware. The bathroom was roomy, but the shower was quite small. We kept bumping into the water valve changing the temperature (careful hot is very hot). The mattress was sunken in the middle, very uncomfy. But the place was cute. A nice porch with chairs & small table/chair set along the cabin's side. A charcoal grill in the common area next door. Parking in front of the cabin.They still advertise AAA at the office but when we booked 6 months in advance they denied any affiliation. A bit pricey, but that's what happens when in a resort area.The location was great. Easy to get to the main attractions of Mono Lake, Bodie, Mammoth Mountain Resort, & Yosemite. Also each day at sunrise the local rooster crowed a good morning greeting!

In Oakville, Ontario, Canada, some of the best blackwork/dotwork in the world is being created at Good Point Tattoos, home to Cory Ferguson. [And yes, he's another featured artist in my upcoming Black Tattoo Art II book.]Tattooing since 2000, Cory is a second-generation tattoo artist. His father, tattooist "Harley Charlie" Duarte, introduced him to the art at a young age but he got his start in the business by working under Crazy Ace Daniels at Way Cool Tattoos.
Cory is best known for his blackwork and dotwork tattoos. His signature style is a fusion of Polynesian tribal designs, geometrics, optical illusions, Asian art, and pointillism. I particularly love the way he plays with perspective and negative space in his blackwork.
In this recently released video profile (below) by CreateMedia and Christoph Benfey, Cory talks about his style and what drives him in the tattoo process. He has a great line where he explains how he prefers to focus on the visual rather than any deep meanings behind the tattoos:
"I'm not here to tug at your heart strings. I'm trying to mess with your eyes."
Watch the video to hear more on Cory's art and get an up-close look as he creates a refined dotwork piece.

Dan Harmon Talks 'Community' Return, Teases New Projects
"If any of you are a midlevel writer who doesn't work for 'Parks and Rec,' let me know that you exist and I would love to hire you," the reinstated showrunner cracks at a Los Angeles Cinefamily event.
Somebody has a lot of catching up to do on Community. And that someone is Dan Harmon, who is formalizing his deal to return for the fifth season of the series he created. On Saturday night, he admitted he hasn't been paying any attention to the NBC comedy's creative direction since his unceremonious exit a year ago.
"I have not seen the fourth season yet," Harmon told an audience at L.A.'s Silent Movie Theatre, where he was co-hosting an event. "I swear to God."
Perhaps the most intriguing news: "Sony said they're very interested in recording me watching it as a commentary track" for the season four DVD set, he said. His co-host for the evening, Rob Schrab, asked if the DVD commentary could also include a visual in the corner of the screen with Harmon's facial expressions as he watches the season he was notably aced out of.
"I think I can do anything," Harmon responded. "It would move season four DVDs, for sure. But I'll be checking it out soon, and then I'll figure out what we're doing for season five."
The discussion of Community came as Harmon and Schrab introduced an installment of "Found Crap," a program they periodically host at the Cinefamily's theater. Many of the attendees hadn't yet heard news of Harmon's reinstatement, which was officially confirmed earlier that day. Schrab toyed with the crowd by talking about some big news in the world of TV, only to start rambling about Matt Smith's exit from Doctor Who.
Harmon finally got his fans wildly cheering by saying that he was "going back to run Community -- along with, as my co-showrunner, the hands-down best writer of all the seasons, Chris McKenna."
Additional staffing has yet to take place -- as Harmon acerbically confirmed via a public solicitation.
"If any of you are a midlevel writer who doesn't work for Parks and Rec, let me know that you exist and I would love to hire you," Harmon declared. "Because this city has been picked clean by every show already, and right now we have to put a staff together. So see me after the show. And it pays -- I don't know -- 25 grand a week or something like that," he joked.
Harmon had apparently been doing some celebrating. "What's up with you?" asked Schrab (creator of The Sarah Silverman Show) of his slouchy co-host. "You look different; you look tired. Do you even want to be here?" he kidded.
STORY: Why 'Community's' Dan Harmon Was Fired: A Showrunner Explains All
"I'm sorry. I'm the ninja of alcoholism," retorted Harmon, alluding to the main feature at the Cinefamily's camp-fest program, a revival of 1984's Ninja III: The Domination. "It kind of gave me a karate chop this weekend that I'm still recovering from. The domination of a hangover."
Schrab asked Harmon if he wanted to also talk about Ricky and Morty, an Adult Swim animated series he's been working on, but Harmon suggested it was too far off to discuss. But he did have a series of webisodes he wanted to mention that he'll apparently be doing on the side soon.
"I sold the idea of my sobriety to ABC Family," Harmon joked. "No, I sold the idea of … a group of us playing Dungeons & Dragons, and then we're going to stop-motion-animate the action and illustrate it. Kind of like a Ricky Gervais HBO show formula. And you'll hear us talking and playing D&D, and you'll see it animated. We're talking to Cinefamily about doing a set of shows on a fantasy theme. So there'll be a movie, like Dragon's Boner or some horrible fantasy movie. We'll play D&D and record you guys laughing at it and then watch some movie that has a midget in it or something." Then he corrected himself. "A 'little person.' I don't understand why that's the better term -- I don't get it -- but I'll participate."
Obviously, Harmon's new Community contract didn't come laden with any political correctness clauses.

PhD and research degree financial support
Tuition fees
Australian and New Zealand students
If you're an Australian citizen or permanent visa holder, or a New Zealand citizen, you won't need to pay tuition fees for your research degree, as long as you complete your degree within:
- 4 years full-time (or equivalent) for doctoral students (PhD and professional doctorate)
- 2 years full-time (or equivalent) for masters students.
Within this period, your fees are automatically covered by the Australian government's Research Training Scheme (RTS). This scheme covers tuition fees only; you must pay any other study-related costs.
If you take longer than the specified time to complete your degree, you may be charged tuition fees for the rest of your study.
I'm transferring after starting my degree at another university
If you're transferring from another university, you carry over the balance of your Research Training Scheme funding entitlement if you enrol within 3 years of discontinuing your research degree. So if you've already studied for one year, you may only be entitled to a further three years full-time equivalent funding if you're a doctoral student, or one year full-time equivalent if you're a research masters student.
When you apply to QUT you must attach an official letter from your previous institution regarding your milestone dates and your Research Training Scheme entitlements.
International students
If you don't receive a scholarship that covers your tuition fees, you must pay the full fees directly to QUT. You must pay your first semester's fees when you accept your offer and then you'll be invoiced before the start of each semester.
Check your tuition fees
To get an idea of how much your course will cost, check the costs and scholarships tab in your course information.
We review fees annually.
You may be able to apply for other scholarships that cover tuition fees for all or part of your course.

- thesis proofreading and editing, printing, and binding.
International students will need to pay additional costs, including costs related to your:
- visa
- travel
- arrival in Australia
- health cover
- accommodation.
If you're an international student, you should check your visa for details on how much you can work while you're studying in Australia.

If you apply during this round, we'll email you in early December to let you know the outcome of your application.
We offer a smaller number of scholarships for students who apply for their degrees between 1 January and 30 September each year. You may need to be nominated by your proposed faculty when applying for scholarships outside the annual scholarship round, including all top-up scholarships.
Some scholarships have specific application deadlines. Check the details of the scholarships you're interested in.
How to apply for scholarships

- include any required supporting documents specified in the scholarship information with your application.
I'm currently studying and don't have my final grades yet
If you're currently completing studies and the outcomes are relevant to your application (such as an honours or masters degree, or a PhD confirmation milestone), you should submit an interim transcript of your grades.
If your interim grades are high enough, we may make you a conditional scholarship offer.
If you receive a conditional offer, you should advise the Research Students Centre of your actual outcome or result as soon as possible.
If the outcome/result confirms the predicted score then your score, rank and offer will be confirmed.

I've owned akali since way back when I started playing, and she's been one of my favorite champions since then. But ever since I entered the "skill range" where people start following meta, she just kinda dropped off for me. I'd really like to pick her up again in matches, but I never feel too confident about it.
This is my dilemma:
1- top lane: full of bruisers with sustain. Not only is akali notoriously bad at dealing with anyone she can't annihilate in half a second flat, but top champions tend to be pretty **** good at keeping their hp high with decent sustain.
2- mid lane: full of ranged ap carries. I can poke them with q, but they can poke me with their entire kit + AAs. The few times I've tried this, I always get zoned the hell out.
So far, I've just been tossing myself into bot games once a day with her to practice mid in a more controlled environment, and I'm personally still not quite happy with how I'm doing.
Could I get some tips please? I'm really hating how little I'm using this champ, specially considering she's one of my favorites.
I usually mid lane with akali, almost always win it. The trick is to play defensively until level 6, last hit whatever. When you hit 6 wait until you get all 3 stacks of your ult. Let them push to your tower, hit them with your combo and exhaust/ignite, usually they will die, or escape with littler health, just make sure they dont have heal though. It works pretty well for me, I almost never lose my lane.
Second Movement
I have yet to find a better guide than this one:
I'm a huge fan of Akali as well. Unfortunately, as for dealing with the meta, Akali has is difficult. If we're talking about ranked/draft, she's probably going to end up being a situational pick. Normals...is a whole different scenario.
One of Akali's biggest weaknesses is tanky characters. If she can't kill a champion outright, she'll have problems with them. A good way of dealing with this (later game) is a deathfire grasp (especially with the rework). As for early game, you're going to have to harass a lot. Use your shroud to scare them away from farming/toss your mark of the assassin on them. Don't be afraid to use your ult to harass (it does have a max of three charges on it). An often used combo is q + wait until q recharges + ult + auto attack (activate mark) + q + auto attack + shroud (to back off). Top champs may have sustain, but popping a combo like that a few times puts them in the danger zone very quickly.
As for mid, I feel like Akali has an easier time. Mid is often a lot squishier and easier to burst down. You'll have to learn the quirks for each champion you face there (specifically which can hit you in your shroud), but as long as you keep an eye on possible ganks, you should start to do well. The same combo applies as earlier.
Akali's BIGGEST problem early game is when she's lower than level 6. Without her ult, your main priority is leveling and farming. Harass if you can, but you NEED your ult to be at all effective. The sooner you're level 6, the sooner you're killing people.
Let me know if you want some more tips! I love Akali too.
Akali's playstyle changes a bit depending on who you are laning against. Most times, you will want to start boots+3 and hang behind minions to last hit with your Q.
Also-- very important to Akali are the runes you are using. Make a rune page with 7 flat AD reds, 3 flat AP quints, and 9 flat AD blues. Masteries put +3 into AD and you have both passives active from level 1. This helps with sustain AND last hitting.
Once you hit level 6, go B and grab your hextech revolver (you should have at least 1200 gold by this point). When you get back to lane, you will have 3 charges on shadow dance, and this is where you can start playing offensively. Practice using your shroud-- Q the enemy, shadow dance, AA, shroud. This gives you a moment to see how much damage your combo puts out, as well as determine if you are better off retreating or laying on another Q+R+AA on them.
I still reccomend rushing gunblade, even with the nerfs, because the active is just so strong on Akali. Helps tremendously when you roam to top or bottom lane for ganks, especially early game.
Kai Allard Laio
Akali is situational in the current meta. Never first pick her. Tanky champs are a problem, but don't forget she has pretty good sustain. I'm very picky about who I lane her against. I usually go top because I don't like facing ranged champs.
Farm passively till level 6 like everyone has described. if they'll let you AA minions, then throw your Q at them continually. if you're REALLY lucky, they'll let you land 2 Q's on them and when you AA them their hp will disappear. This should let you farm easily because they'll be afraid of you. Don't count on it though.
Once you hit 6 you're pretty explosive. Farm like a boss and get a gunblade as quick as possible. I then follow up with a rylai's and then a GA or possibly lich bane.

Veteran decorator sets up shop in Amherst
With 35 years of design experience, Mb Lincoln of My Feathered Nest in Amherst, knows how to put things together to create a living space with style and personality. (NANCY BEAN FOSTER PHOTO)
Lincoln, who has recently purchased her own home in the historic Amherst Village and is currently renovating the space, has been decorating for 35 years. Her parents and grandparents were all entrepreneurs who shared with her a knack for business, and her sense of style carried her through a fascinating career. She worked as a buyer for the Filene's department stores, and when her kids were born, moved into the world of home decorating.
After a break from decorating to work in the schools while her kids were in their teens, Lincoln woke up to a quickly emptying nest and realized it was time to get back to what she loved. Her home renovation project sent her into the stores and design centers, but she couldn't find everything she wanted in one place, so she decided to open My Feathered Nest.
"Hopefully people are looking for what I have," she said.
The shop reflects Lincoln's taste, which tends to be eclectic with room for both whimsy and formality.
"I don't [have] rules," she said. "I can tell what goes together and what doesn't, but there aren't any hard and fast rules."
She believes furniture should last and retain its appeal long after a current fad has passed. In that vein, she also incorporates a mix of antiques - pieces that have proven their staying power.
But to give a home a burst of personality, Lincoln shoots for the whimsical. Lamp shades made out of leaves, rich wool rugs in vivid patterns, fanciful clocks, contemporary chandeliers, even an occasional bird's next add a bit of uniqueness.
Lincoln also provides a wide array of gift items, from scented wax bowls and candles, to knickknacks and stuffed animals. And she offers design and decorating services, which are quickly becoming a growing segment of her business.
"The shop gives people an idea of what I'm capable of," said Lincoln.

A trying season for New Mexico Highlands football came to an end Saturday afternoon, with host Fort Lewis pulling away in the second half for a 36-13 win.
Highlands led briefly in this, the season finale for both teams. Mychal Leupepe's 6-yard touchdown run with 10:11 left in the third quarter, coupled with Ernesto Guerra's extra point, gave the Cowboys a 13-9 edge.
The 2010 season came to a close for the New Mexico Highlands women's soccer team as the Regis Rangers outscored them 3-2 in the first round of the NCAA tournament on Friday in Minnesota.
The Rangers built a 3-0 cushion going into the half and the Cowgirls were only able to answer back with two goals after intermission. The late surge in the cold and wet conditions wasn't enough for the Cowgirls to get the win.
So much for pre-tournament seeding.

"We call you Saint."
The name ignited a light in Carl's mind. Saint. He'd been covertly recruited for Black Ops and given his life to the most brutal kind of training any man or woman could endure. He was here because he belonged here. To the X Group.
An assassin. The most effective killer in the world. And yet . . . Carl Strople struggles to retain fleeting memories that betray an even more ominous reality. He's been told part of the truth--but what's the rest?
Invasive techniques have stripped him of his identity and made him someone new--for this he is grateful. But there are some things they can't take from him. The love of a woman, unbroken loyalties to his past, the need for survival.
From the deep woods of Hungary to the streets of New York, "Saint" takes you on a journey of betrayal in a world of government cover-ups, political intrigue, and one man's search for the truth. In the end, that truth will be his undoing.
