Crystal Dickinson '98
Award-winning Broadway actress
and Theater professor
"After graduate school, I was in an off-Broadway play called "Clybourne Park" and just this past spring, it went to Broadway. When I got the Broadway job, Seton Hall professor Deirdre Yates, was the second person I called after my family. She was so excited for me. She had always been a support to me and I was glad to share my success with her."
Chase Agapito
Diplomacy and International Relations major,
Environmental Studies minor
West Paterson, New Jersey
"I chose Seton Hall because of the academic reputation of Diplomacy and International Relations. And after studying abroad in Spain, an internship with the DEA, an internship with the United States Secret Service, my time at Seton Hall has exceeded my expectations. I just love it here."
John Procopio
Elementary Education and Mathematics major,
Special Education certification
Annandale, New Jersey
"If I could sum up Seton Hall in one word it would be 'community.' It's a close-knit campus, and everywhere you turn, until the day you graduate, and beyond, there is someone looking out for you."
Dwayne Greene
Finance and Accounting majors
Legal Studies minor
Barbados and Somerset, New Jersey
"Proximity to New York City is one of Seton Hall's greatest assets. There's so much access to experts and resources; all the major financial companies have offices in New York. Every year Seton Hall takes a group of business students to the stock market. I got to ring the opening bell. It's a memory I'll have forever."
Yansel Nunez
Biology major, Pre-med
Music minor
Union City, New Jersey
"Seton Hall University taught me how to be a leader. I learned how to network, communicate effectively, plan and organize, as well as how to take advantage of resources. "
Sagarika Gujar
Diplomacy and International Relations and

"I realized that I was at the U.N. in New York City and I was about to live my dream. That wouldn't have been possible had it not been for Seton Hall and all the opportunities I got here."
Ricky Harzula
Secondary Education and History majors
South Plainfield, New Jersey
"The main reason I wanted to come to Seton Hall was its amazing academic reputation that I had heard about from my teachers in middle school and high school. I'm the kind of person who doesn't just want to do something. I want to be great at it. I knew if I came to Seton Hall, I'd become a great teacher."
Matthew Pennington

Richard Greendyk
Biology major, Pre-med, Chemistry and Spanish minors
West Milford, New Jersey
"Beginning my freshman year I started working with my pre-med adviser. She paired me with a Seton Hall alumni mentor, an orthopedic oncological surgeon at Mt. Sinai Medical Center in New York City. I got to observe him during 30 surgeries and assist with several research projects. This taught me to apply what I was studying in the classroom and helped me get into medical school."
Delores Sarfo-Darko
Social Work major, Non-Profit Management minor
East Hartford, Connecticut
"One of the things I love best about Seton Hall is its commitment to servant leadership - or giving back to the community. Because of this commitment, I have been able to start my own soon to be non-profit organization with two fellow students, the Little Misses Forum - which was recently featured on CNN."
Amy Gao
Biology major, Pre-med
Livingston, New Jersey
"Ever since I first stepped onto Seton Hall's campus I always had a support network of people who were willing to help me. That was really important to me because I wanted small classes and I didn't want to be one out of thousands of people. I feel that is exactly what I have gotten at Seton Hall. I've always felt this connection with my adviser and my professors and felt like they weren't here because it was their job, but because they really cared and wanted me to succeed."
Darryl Sessoms
Marketing major
Union, New Jersey
"I felt so confident having Seton Hall on my resume because I know it stands for excellence, and employers know it too. I really feel my four internships and my leadership experiences at Seton Hall helped me get my job at CBS."
Paul Murphy
Transfer Student
Diplomacy and International Relations major
Tallahassee, Florida
"Seton Hall really stresses practical, hands-on learning and internships, so you start building your career while you are in college. They give so much guidance and support. I wouldn't be where I am without the support and opportunities I received at Seton Hall."
David Kelly
Diplomacy and International Relations and Modern Languages majors
West Chester, PA
"I couldn't have gotten my internship with the Clinton Foundation or the Mexican Consulate without my adviser and the School of Diplomacy. They connect you with opportunities and give you the tools you need, even preparing you for interviews."
Daria Preston
Diplomacy and International Relations and Modern Languages majors, Economics minor
Palmer, Alaska
"I've been able to do so much during my time at Seton Hall. The opportunities I've been afforded are amazing and have changed my life."
John Hayes '76
Executive Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer, American Express"It's such a wonderful gift to have gone to Seton Hall. The University opened up the world to me; it truly changed my life. I wouldn't be doing what I'm doing today and I wouldn't have the happiness that I have without Seton Hall."
Brian Wisowaty '11
Graphics Producer, MSNBC"Seton Hall provided my foundation-the hands-on experience, the network of contacts and mentors and, of course, the education. The experiences I had at Seton Hall were transformational, extending far beyond anything that's just pre-professional."
Anne Cantine '10
R.N., Intensive Care Unit, Overlook Medical Center"One of my most profound experiences at Seton Hall was during my service trip to Haiti; it just taught me so much about love and humanity."
Jose Lopez, Ph.D.
Physics professor
"What I enjoy most about teaching is sharing my passion with my students. I love it when a student learns something new for the first time, and they have this 'Eureka!' moment. That never gets old."
Chris Adams
Theology major
Virginia Beach, Virginia
"Seton Hall is a place where faith is a strong aspect and where I could grow in my Catholic faith but in no way is anyone excluded."
Theresa Henry, Ph.D., CPA
Accounting Professor
"I think there is a great relationship between the students and the faculty at Seton Hall. Our job, I believe goes
beyond just what we do in the classroom."

Apply for CertificationHelp Organic Grow
A proposal by the food industry continues the onslaught of new genetically engineered crops that threaten both organic farmers and consumers who may not want GMOs in their food. The latest genetically modified crop likely to be deregulated in 2014 are Arctic® apples, which have been engineered not to brown when sliced.
Organic proponents will likely question why the world needs non-browning apples, especially as this trait is not based on the basic agronomy or pest risks of the apple.

Will Smith's former general manager was happy to see the free-agent pass rusher latch on with the New England Patriots.
The New Orleans Saints released Smith, who was due more than $10 million in 2014, in February after he tore his ACL during the 2013 preseason, forcing him to miss the entire regular season. Smith signed a one-year contract worth $920,000 with the Patriots on Monday.
"I'm excited he's going to have this opportunity with a great organization and a team that has a chance to go to the Super Bowl," Saints GM Mickey Loomis told The New Orleans Advocate on Tuesday. "They're a championship-caliber team with championship-caliber people.
"It's a perfect place for Will."
The Patriots needed a rotational pass rusher for the 2014 season after starters Chandler Jones and Rob Ninkovich were overworked last year. Loomis is confident that Smith can help the Patriots, even after showing some decline before his injury.
"I think Will has tread left on his tire — no doubt in my mind," Loomis said. "As long as he does a good job of rehabbing that injury, which I know he will and has, … he has a lot of football left in him."
The 33-year-old defensive end was the No. 18 overall pick in the 2004 NFL draft. He spent the first 10 years of his career with the Saints.

Ella Fitzgerald reigns supreme as one of the great, if not the greatest, singers of all time. She was a prolific performer, both on stage and in the studio – and, as we saw in late 2009, with the release of
Ella In Hollywood
, a 4-CD box set of jaw-dropping unreleased live recordings, a never-ending source of surprises.
Prepare to be surprised once again.
'S Wonderful: Ella In Japan
, a new release from the acclaimed Verve Select imprint at Hip-oSelect.com, is a brand-new 2-CD set of
previously unheard
Ella Fitzgerald: on tour in Japan with the Roy Eldridge Quartet in January 1964, she and the band were hailed as American jazz heroes, feted in every city, then recorded over two brilliant nights in Tokyo. They ran through
Song Book
favorites, a smattering of other classics and Ella's own blues, first at Tokyo's equivalent of Carnegie Hall (Disc 1), then in an invitation-only, late-night gig at a luxury hotel ballroom, with Japanese entertainers in attendance (Disc 2). Eldridge's Quartet got their own set as well, joined in a jam session with local musicians. (Ella fans take additional note: this album features the first recordings of Ella with her longtime pianist Tommy Flanagan.)
Where was
'S Wonderful: Ella In Japan
all these years? Ella's producer and manager Norman Granz made stereo mixes, devised separate LPs for the American and Japanese markets, sent detailed memos to his staff – and then, owing to the abundance of Ella in Verve's vault, cancelled the releases. Published discographies also had incorrect recording dates, adding to the mystery. After nearly 50 years, not only were the tapes rediscovered, but writer Marc Myers made his own discoveries with Japanese journalists and surviving musicians, and in the liner notes he tells the full story of these extraordinary recordings for the first time. Myers' essay in the set's 24-page booklet is augmented with rare photos from the tour as well as tour program reprints, and more.
All 26 tracks from both planned LPs are now available for the first time ever on
'S Wonderful: Ella In Japan
– a 2-CD collection equal to
Ella In Hollywood
and, to some, better than that award-winning set, as it's Ella a few years later, a little more confident, swinging with supernatural ease.

On March 13, 2008, a
group of 15 MBA students from Pace University's
Lubin School of Business, located in New York,
(www.pace.edu/lubin) and their Professor, Bruce
Bachenheimer, will leave for Tanzania on a 10-day
International Field Study Course. The program will
focus on entrepreneurship, both social and
commercial and will include visits to National
parks and Zanzibar Islands. Pace University deliberately
selected Tanzania for its Africa program launch
because of the country's unique and successful move
to free capital markets, its stable government and
its reputation in the World Bank as a success in
implementing a free market economy. "This field study course is a
worthy initiative for the Lubin School of Business
to undertake at this time. Emerging markets, a
wealth of natural resources, global investment
opportunities and stable governments who are
concerned about improving their citizen's quality
of life are now open for Lubin Graduate students to
experience. Furthermore, it further reinforces the
fact that Africa is rapidly becoming a major player
on the world stage and an un-tapped site for
academic research and observation," stated Mr.
Rumit Mehta, of Safari Ventures and Lubin Alumni
(MBA '03). Safari Ventures will be handling all the
ground logistics and assisted Professor
Bachenheimer in designing and organizing the
visit. The course will examine the
dynamics of commercial and social entrepreneurship
in Tanzania, one of Africa's emerging economies.
The impact that entrepreneurship is having on this
nation, as well as possible ways to promote social
and economic development will also be examined. The
history, characteristics, and constraints of this
developing market will be studied. The role of
government, non-governmental organizations, and
commercial enterprise will be analyzed. Particular
attention will be given to the structure of
financial systems and the impact of global business
on local development, including how foreign
investors and multinational firms are embracing
entrepreneurs to produce successful ventures and
partnerships. Students will have a unique
opportunity to meet with political, business,
academic, and community leaders including an
intense 2-day workshop designed in conjunction with
the University of Dar-Es-Salaam Entrepreneurship
Centre (UDEC), led by UDEC Director Dr. Donoth
Olomi and his staff. They will visit a number of
commercial enterprises and social ventures,
directly experiencing many of the concepts they
will have studied. Students will also be challenged
to examine and assess what they observe in the
context of the U.N. Millennium Development
Goals. Professor Bachenheimer noted
that he has been interested in Tanzania since
childhood, captivated by stories in National
Geographic about Louis Leakey's discoveries near
Olduvai Gorge and Jane Goodall's work with the
chimpanzees of Gombe National Park. He states "The
more I learn about Tanzania, the more excited I am
about this trip and all the opportunities it holds
in store." Not all of it is academic however. The
group will also be visiting Zanzibar Island and an
overnight stay at Mikumi National Park- one of
Tanzania's southern parks. About Tanzania Tanzania, the largest country in
East Africa, is focused on wildlife conservation
and sustainable tourism, with approximately 25 % of
the land protected by the Government. It boasts 14
National Parks and 34 game reserves. It is the home
of the tallest mountain in Africa, the legendary
Mt. Kilimanjaro; The Serengeti, named in October,
2006, the New 7th Wonder of the World by USA Today
and Good Morning America; the world acclaimed
Ngorongoro Crater, often called the 8th Wonder of
the World; Olduvai Gorge, the cradle of
mankind: the Selous, the world's largest game
reserve; Ruaha, now the largest National Park in
East Africa; the spice islands of Zanzibar; and
seven world Heritage Sites. Most important for
tourism, the Tanzanian people are warm and
friendly, speak English, although Kiswahili is the
national language, and the country is an oasis of
peace and stability with a democratic and stable
government. For more information about

protein specificityModerator: BioTeam
2 posts • Page 1 of 1
protein specificitycan somebody explain me the differences between protein specificity and protein affinity ?
I'm not sure I have the best answer or not. In my mind the two can be related. Specificity would be a discriminatory function--an enzyme can discriminate between two stereoisomers of a substrate and so is specific, preferring to use one isomer over the other. Affinity would refer to binding energy; a more favorable free energy of binding implies a greater affinity for the substrate or other protein (in the case of protein-protein interactions, for example). It may sometimes be true that higher affinity implies greater specificity, but that need not be the case--it is possible to show high selectivity without high affinity, for example.

Eastern Cottonwood |
Populus deltoides (del-TOY-dees) - Salicaceae/Willow Family |
I believe we have Eastern Cottonwood Tree's. |
The tree has invasive roots that have a natural tendency to seek
water. Each year the female releases numerous tiny seeds
attached to silky Fluff that are dispersed by he wind. |
Measuring Our tree |
I had thought mine was very large, then I actually
measured it and it wasn't to impressive compared to the others. |
The Largest Eastern Cottonwood |
in the USA is located in Nebraska |
Circumference: 444 inches, (37 ft.) Height: 93 feet, Spread: 103 feet, Points: 563, Most Recent Measurement: 2003 |
The Biggest Tree in the USA is the California, Giant Sequoia, with 1,321
points according to The National Register of Big Trees |
The Star in the Cottonwood Tree |
There is a Native American story about a curious little star that hid in a Cottonwood tree so it could always be near the people on earth and listen to their beautiful music, their laughter, and the kind words they say to one another. |
The Makoche Recording Company and the North Dakota Council on the Arts have recorded on an enhanced compact disk, traditional Dakotah stories told by The Artist : Mary Louise Defender Wilson. A Dakotah elder, born into a family of storytellers on the Standing Rock Indian Reservation. The story is entitled, "My Relatives Say." and she credits Dale Childs for giving the story to her. |

Annual Diving Incident Report
BSAC have monitored and reported on Diving Incidents since 1964 in the interest of promoting diving safety. It is important to note that it contains details of UK diving incidents occurring to divers of all affiliations, plus incidents occurring world-wide involving BSAC members.
The report analyses the background to the incidents and over many years the BSAC and other UK based training agencies have constantly revised and updated their training programmes and safety guidance to take acount of both developing technology and to address training issues highlight by incident analysis. A clear message from the analysis of incidents over recent years is summarised in most reports in the same way as in the 2004 report:
As has been stated many times before, most of the incidents reported within this document could have been avoided had those involved followed a few basic principles of safe diving practice. The BSAC publishes a booklet called 'Safe Diving' (latest edition June 2011 but due for updating shortly). This booklet summarises all the key elements of safe diving.
Remember you can never have too much practice and the further you stay away from the limits of your own personal capabilities the more likely you are to continue to enjoy your diving.
Please browse through the details in the current and previous reports and use them to learn from others' mistakes. They have had the courage and generosity to record their experiences for publication, the least that we can do is to use this information to avoid similar problems.

BSAC Diving Incidents Advisor,

We've been told that there are some very interesting ideas floating around the developer's room for notorious monster spawn conditions in 2.0! Although, I cannot tell you what they have in store for you just yet (of course, right? ), I hope this information piques your interest. This is a Dev post on the lodestone, how would you like this to be implemented? |
I'm sort of torn on this. As much as I enjoyed camping NM's for hours and hours, it's not something I'd enjoy now. I'd be fine with a one or two hour respawn, but please don't give us 8, 10, 12, 24 hour respawns. Other than that, I don't really care what they do with them.
It sounds to me like they're moving away from basic spawn timers and moving towards something with a bit more variety. Personally I would love to have NM spawn conditions be unique for each and be more of a complex series of conditions to be met in the area. Have it depend on time of day, require the activation of certain things in the environment by players, require the obtaining of special items... basically make it a time consuming process but put the control in the players' hands rather than just depending on an invisible timer. I'm sure the spawning technology used in the guildleves could be used ensure the NM spawns locked to the group that spawned it as well. NMs need to feel like a challenge to find as that's part of the fun and what makes them slightly rarer. Just make it depend on more tangible conditions instead of a timer. |
I'm hoping the NM drops are Ex/Rare, and leave the good tradable stuff to crafters. This will keep the farmers away from spawn points.
I don't worry about NMs I know there will be many, problem is the drop system FFXIV had in 1.0 was the same like in FFXI which sucked bad. Random drop system sucks bad cause 1 person kills the NM 100 times and has 0 drops and a 2nd person kills NM once and gets drop. I remember in FFXI I killed Jackedy Eared Jack 200+ times during my 7 years in the game and never saw the drop, so did with the Banshee type mob in king Ranpiers tomb that droped travelers mantle you cant imagine how many times I killed that mob never droped.

ST. LOUIS — Missouri men's basketball coach Frank Haith got his first taste of one of the Tigers' best traditions on Thursday — the annual Braggin' Rights game against Illinois in St. Louis.
Haith, who left the University of Miami for Missouri after last season, said before the game that he was expecting an NCAA tournament feel. Even with those lofty expectations, Haith was still impressed by the game's atmosphere.
No. 9 Missouri (12-0)
at Old Dominion (6-6)
WHEN: 6 p.m. Friday
WHERE: Ted Constant Convocation Center, Norfolk, Va.
"It's got to be one of the great basketball events in the country," he said.
Players and fans agree. Michael Dixon and Kim English called the Braggin' Rights games some of the "funnest" games they've ever played in. More than 22,000 fans showed up to Thursday's contest, which Missouri won 78-74.
"It was unbelieveable," Haith said. "I can't imagine anything else like it. There's cheering on every basket."
There was also cheering on every whistle, loose ball and rebound. Even during commercial breaks, the Scottrade Center got loud.
Behind Haith was a sea of black and gold going crazy as he stood with his arms folded or pumped his fist after a loose ball was recovered by the Tigers. Just feet away was an equally excitable sea of orange behind Illinois coach Bruce Weber as he screamed until he could barely speak and threw his arms up in the air after questionable calls.
When chants of I-L-L, I-N-I filled the orange side of the stadium, chants of M-I-Z, Z-O-U filled the black and gold side.
Even the cheerleaders were involved in the rivalry with their annual contest where five male cheerleaders from each side hold a female cheerleader up in the air to see who can hold that position longest during a first-half commercial break. Illinois won this year's contest.
The only people in the arena who might not have been having fun were the referees, who were booed vehemently by one side or the other after every close call they made.
The only thing that Missouri and Illinois fans cheered for together was when the PA announcer let the crowd know that Carlos Beltran signed a contract with the St. Louis Cardinals.
Even Missouri governor Jay Nixon was booed by the Illinois faithful.
The Braggin' Rights atmosphere raises the possibility that something similar could work for Missouri's rivalry against Kansas when the Tigers join the SEC this summer.
Missouri and Illinois have been playing the Braggin' Rights game as out-of-conference opponents since 1980.
Missouri and Kansas have already played a neutral site football game at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City each of the past five seasons. A neutral site basketball game could be played at the Sprint Center in Kansas City.
Haith has already told ESPN that he would like to continue the Kansas basketball rivalry with alternating home games each year. Haith will get his first tastes of the Kansas rivalry on Feb. 4 at Mizzou Arena and Feb. 25 at Allen Fieldhouse.
When Missouri announced it's move to the SEC, MU athletics director Mike Alden said that the school wanted to keep the Kansas rivalry alive. Maybe an annual neutral site game is the way to do it.

Stacked Git - Summary
StGit is a Python application providing similar functionality to Quilt (i.e. pushing/popping patches to/from a stack) on top of Git. These operations are performed using Git commands and the patches are stored as Git commit objects, allowing easy merging of the StGit patches into other repositories using standard Git functionality. StGit is licensed under the GNU General Public License.
Note that StGit is not an SCM interface on top of Git and it expects a previously initialised Git repository. For standard SCM operations, either use plain Git commands or the Cogito tool.
For more information, see the README file in the archive.
