This page gives a brief outline of the major control flows in the execution of a garbage collector in MMTk. For simplicity, we focus on the MarkSweep collector, although much of the discussion will be relevant to other collectors.
This page assumes you have a basic knowledge of garbage collection, for those that don't, please see one of the standard texts such as The Garbage Collection Handbook.
Structure of a Plan
An MMTk Plan is required to provide 5 classes. They are required to have consistent names which start with the same name and have a suffix that indicates which class it inherits from. in the case of the MarkSweep plan, the name is "MS".
- MS - this is a singleton class that is a subclass of
org.mmtk.plan.Plan. This class encapsulates data structures that are shared among multiple threads.
- MSMutator - subclass of org.mmtk.plan.MutatorContext. This class encapsulates data structures that are local to a single mutator thread. In the case of Jikes RVM, a Thread is actually a subclass of this class for efficiency reasons.
- MSCollector - subclass of org.mmtk.plan.CollectorContext. This provides thread-local data structures specific to a garbage collector thread.
- MSConstraints - subclass of org.mmtk.plan.PlanConstraints. This provides configuration information that the host virtual machine might need. It is separated out from the Plan class in order to prevent circular class loading dependencies.
- MSTraceLocal - subclass of org.mmtk.plan.TraceLocal. This provides thread-local data structures specific to a particular way of traversing the heap. In a simple collector like MarkSweep, there is only one of these classes, but in more complex collectors there may be several. For example, in a generational collector, there will be one TraceLocal class for a nursery collection, and another for a full-heap collection.
Space class, and it is in the policy class that the mechanics of a particular mechanism (like mark-sweep) is implemented. The task of a Plan is to create the policy (Space) objects that manage the heap, and to integrate them into the MMTk framework.
org.mmtk.policy.Space, and a particular instance of a policy is known generically as a space. The static initializer of a Plan and its subclasses define the spaces that make up an MMTk plan.
In this code fragment, we see the MS plan defined. Note that we generally also define a static final space descriptor. This is an optimization that allows some rapid operations on spaces.
Space is a global object, shared among multiple mutator threads. Each policy will also have one or more thread-local classes which provide unsynchronized allocation. These classes are subclasses of
org.mmtk.utility.alloc.Allocator, and in the case of MarkSweep, it is called
MarkSweepLocal. Instances of
MarkSweepLocal are created as part of a mutator context, like this
The design pattern is that the local Allocator will allocate space from a thread-local buffer, and when that is exhausted it will allocate a new buffer from the global Space, performing appropriate locking. The constructor of the MarkSweepLocal specifies the space from which the allocator will allocate global memory.
MMTk provides two methods for allocating an object. These are provided by the MSMutator class, to give each plan the opportunity to use fast, unsynchronized thread-local allocation before falling back to a slower synchronized slow-path.
The version implemented in MarkSweep looks like this:
The basic structure of this method is common to all MMTk plans. First they decide whether the operation applies to this level of abstraction (if (allocator == MS.ALLOC_DEFAULT)), and if so, delegate to the appropriate place, otherwise pass it up the chain to the super-class. In the case of MarkSweep, MSMutator delegates the allocation to its thread-local MarkSweepLocal object
alloc method of
MarkSweepLocal is inherited from
SegregatedFreeListLocal (mark-sweep is not the only way of managing free-list allocation), and looks like this
This is a standard pattern for thread-local allocation: first we look in the thread-local space (line 3), and if successful return the result (lines 4-8). If unsuccessful, we request space from the global policy via the method
Allocator.allocSlow. This is the common interface that all Allocators use to request space from the global policy. This will eventually call the allocator-specific
allocSlowOnce method. The workings of the allocSlowOnce method are very policy-specific, so not appropriate to look at at this stage, but eventually all policies will attempt to acquire fresh virtual memory via the
Space.acquire method.
Space.acquire is the only correct way for a policy to allocate new virtual memory for its own use.
The logic of space.acquire is:
- First, poll the plan to find out whether the heap is full. This logic is performed by the plan, because it has knowledge of copy reserves etc.
- The 'poll' method will request a GC if required, and return
trueif it has done so.
- Then we wait for GC if required. 'poll' can't wait, because it is called in circumstances that aren't GC safe.
- If Plan.poll(...) returns false (we are within the allowed heap size), we call pr.getNewPages to allocate virtual memory. At this stage we can find that we have run out of virtual memory, and if so, we force a GC
- If a GC is performed, we return Address.zero(), rather than retrying locally. In many plans, the next allocation request will be satisfied by re-using space in a page that already belongs to a policy, so the post-GC allocation must be performed further up in the call stack. The retry logic is handled in
This code fragment shows the retry logic in the allocator. We try allocating using
allocSlowOnce, which may recycle partially-used blocks and eventually call
Space.acquire. If a GC occurred, we try again. Eventually the plan will request an emergency collection which will (for example) cause soft references to be dropped. If this fails we throw an
In a stop-the-world garbage collector like MarkSweep, the mutator threads run until memory is exhausted, then all mutator threads are suspended, the collector threads are activated, and they perform a garbage collection. After the GC is complete, the collector threads are suspended and the mutator threads resume. MMTk also has some support for concurrent collectors, in which one or more collector threads can be scheduled to run alongside the mutator, either exclusively or in addition to (hopefully briefer) stop-the-world phases.
Thread scheduling in MMTk is handled by a GC controller thread, implemented in the singleton class
org.mmtk.plan.ControllerCollectorContext held in the static field
Plan.controlCollectorContext. Whenever a collection is initiated, it is done by calling methods on this object.
As mentioned above, every attempt to allocate fresh virtual memory calls the current plan's
poll(...) method. This initiates a GC by calling
controlCollectorContext.request(), which in a stop-the-world collector like MarkSweep pauses the mutator threads and then wakes the collector threads. The main loop of the garbage collector is simply the
run() method of
ParallelCollector, shown below.
collect() method is specific to the type of collector, and in
StopTheWorldCollector it looks like this
Collector Phases
Every garbage collection consists of a series of steps. Leaving aside concurrent collectors for the moment, these

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC, and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) i...

Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

The Federal government administers a wide array of public-private partnerships to reduce U.S. greenhouse gas emissions and greenhouse gas emissions intensity. These programs focus on energy efficiency, renewable energy, methane and other non-carbon dioxide (non-CO2) gases, agricultural practices and implementation of technologies to achieve greenhouse gas reductions. The United States government is extensively engaged in international climate change activities in areas such as science, mitigation and environmental monitoring.
The Obama administration aims to make the U.S. a leader on climate change policy, with one of its major goals being to reduce U.S. greenhouse gas emissions 80 percent by 2050 by implementing an economy-wide cap and trade program. (Source: EPA, Change.gov / Photo: Flickr)

A:You will likely find that Rub Rub Rub is enough on its own, but you are more than welcome to pair it with a shower smoothie if you like!Answered on 4/3/2015 by Melissa S from LUSH Direct
A:You can really do it either way but Rub Rub Rub can be used alone. I like to rub a handful over damp skin in the shower, concentrating on dry areas like heels and elbows. Then, I add more water in May hands until I get a wonderful lather that smells like orange blossoms and enjoy that experience until I feel like rinsing off! Voilà, beautifully soft, clean skin!!

Q:A store associate told me to never use this on my face because it's too rough for facial cleansing. How is this more abrasive than Ocean Salt? Since this only has fine sea salt rather than the large chucks like Ocean Salt does.Asked on 3/1/2015 by Ami from Topeka, KS
1 answer
A:Ocean Salt is great cleanser that is gentle enough for the face but effective enough for the body as well. Rub Rub Rub is designed for the body, where your skin is a lot thicker and tougher. Keep in mind you body rubs up against your clothing a lot more than your face does and has adapted over time to such an environment. Skin on your face has to be treated more delicately, so I think the associate was right. They both have amazing Sea Salt and the both exfoliate, but the other ingredients dictate a different result for each product, indicating different intended uses for each. Rub Rub Rub might be to rough for your face and irritate skin that is more sensitive.Answered on 3/21/2015 by Alexander from LUSH Direct
Q:I LOVE the smell of this! I went into the Lush at International Mall in Tampa a few weeks back and asked the associate if you guys made any other products that smell like the Sakura bath bomb and she gave me a hand massage with this. So I bought it and love it, was curious if you have any other products (soap, lotions) with this scent?? Thanks guys! Oh and I didn't catch her name, but the associate was super sweet. Everytime I go into one of your stores, no matter what city I am in, your associates are always so helpful and friendly!Asked on 9/11/2014 by Marisa from Tampa, FL

A:Thanks so much for your kind words. We have a shampoo with the same fragrance! It's called Seanick and it's in a bar. Have a sniff next time you are in the store.Answered on 9/25/2014 by Rene from LUSH Direct
A:Hello!! There's a great shampoo bar called "Seanik" that smells just like it and also, a bomb called "Sakura". I love the smell too and every once in a while, they have a limited edition perfume of Sakura. I bought one once and it's beautiful! gillyAnswered on 9/11/2014 by gilly from louisville
Q:I was wondering what you meant when you said it could be used as a shampoo in a ''pinch" like should i not shampoo my hair with it a lot? cause that statement kind of confused meAsked on 8/29/2014 by dalal
2 answers
A:Our Rub Rub Rub is very similar to our BIG shampoo so if you run out of your favorite shampoo, feel free to use a bit of Rub Rub Rub! We say in a pinch because it shouldn't be used all the time because it isn't quite as moisturizing as BIG or other shampoos and may dry hair out if used too often, but it will save you if you are "in a pinch!"Answered on 9/25/2014 by Kayla from LUSH DIRECT
A:I honestly wouldn't use it on my hair regularly. It won't hurt it but my
hair is dry, and it's just not a good match for dry hair.Answered on 8/29/2014 by Anonymous
Q:How does this compare to Ocean Salt, as they're both sea salt scrubs?Asked on 5/1/2014 by Megan from United States
3 answers
A:I would say this compared to Ocean salt because they are both scrubs the
difference is the smell and textures I've tried both Ocean Salt is gritty
and the smell is almost lemony and salty and Rub rub is gentler and the
smell is more floral i like both both leave your skin wicked soft and
moisturizedAnswered on 5/5/2014 by Anonymous
A:Rub Rub Rub is made with only fine sea salt instead of a mixture of coarse and fine. Ocean Salt is able to be used for both face and body, whereas Rub Rub Rub is best for body only.Answered on 5/3/2014 by Kayla from LUSH DIRECT
A:I have both! The rub rub rub is thin and almost watery .it has very small salt pieces that are sand like. It turns into a light lather. Good for shower. I LOVE the ocean salt. I use this as a face wash. It smells great and has a thicker cream like consistency. It has bigger salt pieces and I think it exfoliates better too. It leaves your skin feeling moisturised afterward.

Q:This might be a silly question, but can this be applied to the vaginal area ? If not is there a scrub that you could reccomend that would be okay for thatAsked on 11/4/2013 by a from winston salem, NC

A:I would not recommend putting any of our products on your vaginal area. Medically, that area is extremely sensitive and we would not want you to have a reaction. If you would like to use Rub Rub Rub on your bikini line, that would be perfectly okay!Answered on 11/17/2013 by Anonymous
Q:Can this product be used on the face?Asked on 10/19/2013 by Megan

A:You may use this for your face, the choice is up to you! Although, with the sea salt in this product it may be slightly rough on your face. It is an excellent exfoliant and can be used on ones face.Answered on 11/21/2013 by Anonymous
Q:I understand that Rub Rub Rub can be used as a shampoo as well as scrub, however is it safe to use on colored/dyed hair?Asked on 7/8/2013 by Hayley from NC
2 answers
A:Rub Rub Rub contains loads of sea salt, which is naturally very cleansing and does tend to strip colored hair quicker than products that do not contain it. We would not recommend it for color treated hair.Answered on 8/21/2013 by Melissa S from LUSH Direct
A:I used this product on my bright blue hair, and while I don't think it made the color fade any faster than usual it did dry it out quite a bit. Just to be safe I'd use something else instead.Answered on 7/28/2013 by Paige from Toronto
Q:Does this help with cellulite? I start by rubbing this over my dry sin, and then rub and rinse with water after - it makes my skin feel AMAZING! It seems similar in premise to dry brushing, which is why I ask..Asked on 7/17/2012 by kiki from austin tx

A:Exfoliation helps increase circulation which can improve the appearance of cellulite. It's definitely worth a try!Answered on 8/28/2012 by Megan from LUSH Direct

First National Bank will soon have a new name, new insignia and new ownership.
But some of the company's top leaders say they believe the emphasis on community involvement and hometown banking will remain the same.
First National will merge into Bank of the Ozarks after the Arkansas-based bank's purchase of the Shelby-headquartered company is final later this year. The bank also has branches in Gastonia, Cramerton and Bessemer City.
"They are very familiar with the types of communities and the customers that we serve," said Helen A. Jeffords, president and CEO of First National. "And that's what we want. We're extremely pleased we're able to align with a bank of the reputation and values of Bank of the Ozarks. They are one of the strongest banks in the U.S., with $4 billion in assets."
Jeffords and First National board chairwoman Adelaide Austell Craver talked about the bank deal Friday.
Why did First National make the move?
The financial uncertainty of the time and banking industry challenges made it important for First National to look for ways to stabilize operations, Jeffords and Craver said.
"We weren't forced to sell," Jeffords said. "We were encouraged by our regulator that he could see a bright future for us."
"We felt this was the best for the long term," Craver said.
How long has a change been in the works?
"It has always been the board's responsibility to look out for best interests and grow in its sphere of influence," Jeffords said.
The board has been specifically looking at possibilities for about six months, Craver said.
"This has not been a quick process," she said. "We wanted to do the right thing for everyone involved."
What's the next step in the merger process?
The next step is approval by the Securities and Exchange Commission, which may come in 10-30 days, Jeffords said.
That will be followed by a shareholder vote and then approval of the state of Arkansas bank regulators, regulators here and FDIC approval.
What can customers expect when the merger is final?
"The same familiar faces serving our customers will be here, and the customers will see the same friendly service. There may be possibilities of new products, with their size and innovation," Craver said.
Like First National, Bank of the Ozarks offers trust and investment services.
"We expect to grow those services," Jeffords said.
"We'll be able to make larger loans and offer more services," she added. "The customer should feel very comfortable and secure with deposits. (Ozarks) is one of the strongest banks in the country."
What can employees expect?
"(Bank of the Ozarks) will want good people and need good people," Jeffords said. "We have told them of the talents of our good people. Every effort will be made to find good positions for all of our staff."
How will First National's operations and leadership structure change?
"We're a little premature with that," Jeffords said.
Will First National's name change?
Yes, the name will change to Bank of the Ozarks, expected by late second quarter of this year.
Will First National locations close?
Jeffords said no.
What happens to First National's board?
Once the deal is finalized, the First National board will no longer operate.
Will First National's community involvement, with programs such as the Santa house on South Lafayette Street, change?
"(Ozarks officials) came to Shelby at Christmastime and were impressed with what they saw," Jeffords said.
"They said they weren't sure they could jump as high as First National but would like to," Craver said. "We think their interest in community involvement is one of the reasons they wanted (to purchase) us."
"Our community interest is perpetual," Jeffords said.

Bismarck du Plessis must be the Springboks' first-choice hooker in 2011.
Writing in the new issue of SA Rugby magazine, on sale this week, Ryan Vrede says John Smit is 'haunted by the truth that he no longer casts a shadow that hides Du Plessis … Indeed it is Du Plessis, whose physical constitution and athletic prowess is perfectly suited to the demands of the game in its current form, who towers over his tutor.'
Vrede analyses Du Plessis' performance in the Currie Cup final and says a good Grand Slam tour could leave the Bok selectors with no choice but to cut Smit next year.
Also in the new issue:
– Schalk Burger has refined his game to become the complete loose forward
– How the new law interpretations have reduced the impact of fetchers at the breakdown
– South African rugby is slowly but surely ridding itself of a conservative and limiting obsession with size
– Lwazi Mvovo made the most of his opportunities at the Sharks to earn a deserved Springbok call-up
– Barbarians coach Nick Mallett on keeping his players happy, the importance of the invitational side, and why the Boks have struggled
– The Sharks won the Currie Cup final by playing a quick-tempo game, dominating the collisions and putting their faith in a young flyhalf

– The EP Kings have finally got their act together, on and off the field. Now they want to help change the face of South African rugby
– The Springbok Sevens side finished sixth in the last World Series and third at the Commonwealth Games, but coach Paul Treu is optimistic about the future
– Grey College insists it does not buy players from other schools or offer them bursaries

No one in his day was better at downplaying the prospects of his own team than the great Bill Dooley.
The former
It's a result
He's apparently got others doing the job for him.
"I go to the grocery store and the guy (there) says 'hang in coach. It's going to be a long year,'" Gottfried said earlier this week at his annual summer press conference. "I hear it everywhere I go."
Gottfried doesn't necessary subscribe to the doomsday projections, adding that perhaps the Wolfpack will be "a team that can surprise some people" in 2013-14.
But considering the beating he and his team took last season after it was picked to win the ACC and ranked among the top five in the nation before ever playing a game, he's not in any hurry to quiet the naysayers, either.
State ended up winning 24 games, finishing with a double-digit league wins and earning a second straight trip to the NCAA tournament. But even that wasn't enough to keep Gottfried's former colleagues at ESPN from branding the Wolfpack as college basketball's most egregious underachiever.
The veteran coach won't have to worry about such dispersions this time around.
Instead of fielding a team loaded with four returning starters and three incoming McDonald's All-Americas as he did a year ago, Gottfried's current squad will be so inexperienced that two of the five veterans on the roster – LSU transfer Ralston Turner and former JUCO Desmond Lee – have yet to play their first game for the program.
Between that collective youth and the added challenge presented by the addition of perennial NCAA tournament teams
Not that Gottfried is setting the bar as low as everyone else.
He's put together a challenging nonconference schedule that includes road games against Cincinnati and Tennessee, and a home date with Missouri to enhance the Wolfpack's chances on Selection Sunday "just in case "we're fortunate to get good."
Not even Gottfried is sure at this point what it will take for that to happen. There are too many variables at play to know where to start.
Can sophomore forward T.J.
Will Turner live up to his advance billing as a potential star on the wing? How long will it take Lee to adjust to the higher level of competition? Who will emerge as the team's leaders? Will this year's team learn to play defense better than their predecessors? Can point guards Tyler Lewis and Cat Barber learn to coexist in the same backcourt? Will fifth-year center Jordan Vandenberg finally be able to make a significant contribution? And if not, can one of three untested big men – Beejay Anya, Lennard Freeman and Kyle Washington – develop fast enough to fill the void?
"Our program is certainly in transition," Gottfried said. "At the same time, we're excited about where we can get to one day. How quick that is? I don't know. We'll see.
"I understand we have a long ways to go to be competitive. But we're excited about (the challenge)."
How much the young Wolfpack learns and retains from its organized summer workouts, which began last Tuesday, will likely go a long way toward determining whether or not it will live down to its lowered expectations. Or do enough to exceed them.
Either way, it won't have to worry about being called an underachiever.

(NewsUSA) - More than 38 million boys and girls between the ages of 5 and 18 participate in organized youth sports. And while sports can be a fun way to socialize and instill values such as teamwork, physical activity can also mean potential for injuries.
Coaches, parents and athletes need to be on the lookout for injuries, especially more serious types of injuries such as concussions.
Recognizing such injuries and being proactive are key because approximately 3.8 million sports and recreation-related concussions occur in the United States each year. So, what may seem to be a mild bump or blow to the head can often be far more serious.
Contact between athletes, collisions between athletes and objects such as goalposts or hurdles or simple falls can all result in concussions, which cause the brain to move rapidly inside the skull.
Should a concussion occur on the playing field, there are many signs and symptoms that coaches and parents need to know. For example, athletes who experience any kind of change in behavior, thinking or physical functioning may be in need of care.
As a result, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has stepped in to help with the development of the "Heads Up: Concussion in Youth Sports" tool kit.
The kit provides a comprehensive list of signs and symptoms of a concussion as well as important steps to take when a concussion is suspected. The materials are available in both English and Spanish and include:
* a fact sheet for coaches
* a fact sheet for athletes
* a fact sheet for parents
* clipboards with concussion facts for coaches
* magnets with concussion facts for coaches and parents
* posters with concussion facts for coaches and sports administrators
* a quiz for coaches, athletes and parents

As far as we know, there isn't one. Let's begin by addressing your first question: if there is no catch, who's paying for this, and what's their work incentive? The answer is FlatWorld, and, if things go right for the new company, guidebooks, work materials and requests for in-print versions will be sufficient to cover labor costs and to generate profits.
Since 2007, FlatWorld has been crafting their innovative idea, and it plans to make services available to the public by 2009. The diversity of their textbook selections and the facility of their use will largely determine the success of their new venture, but students aware of FlatWorld will probably, at the very least, check out their site. According to The Chronicle of Higher Education, the average college student spends over $900 on textbooks—annually. Being able to pocket a good chunk of that money will significantly alleviate financial burdens caused by increasing college rates.
Electronic book versions are not exactly new, and companies less geared towards college students dealing with unregulated textbook costs have already offered similar services. Electronic books in general are growing in popularity, especially the fee-based ones. If you've done some Amazon shopping or people watched on the train in recent months, you're probably familiar with the new Amazon electronic reading device. It's catching on quickly, but, truth be told, there's just something about physically holding a piece paper. As much as I love branches, I couldn't help but print out class articles en masse during finals week, ones I could have easily browsed online. (In my defense, I did fit four pages on one sheet.) The ability to quickly scribble a note, double star a sentence or circle a key word just makes the learning process more interactive and complete.
Still, I'm willing to bet that dishing out $120 for a textbook that can't be resold due to future edition changes can make a little inconvenience worthwhile. Most money management tactics can. And FlatWorld is doing its best to make up in ease what they lose in "that special something". By making their texts editable to both students and the professors who assign them, they have made their options a bit more user friendly and appealing. Readers can even interact with each other during the reading process—I smell an attractive cliff note opportunity. Dragging your desktop to the quad may be a bit of a pain, but being able to afford vacation time may give you an incentive.

In an anticipated statement outlining potential changes to the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB), the Department of Education Secretary Margaret Spellings announced new plans to amend the act. Key improvements included the standardization of graduation rate calculations and the heightening of awareness about family tutoring and school transfer options.
Based on current regulations, states are permitted to define not only their benchmarks for academic success, but also the methods for determining their high school graduation rates. The problem with this approach became particularly evident after a study comparing graduation gaps between major cities and suburbs suggested that numerous states fared much worse than their graduation data suggested.
Under the secretary's new plan, all high schools would have to determine graduation rates by dividing the total number of high school senior graduates by the number of freshman who began four years earlier, with adjustments made for transfer students. Students who took extra years to finish would not be considered to have successfully completed the program, indicated a Los Angeles Times article covering the story. The issue of assisting students attending "at risk" schools was also tackled, with the Secretary proposing an increase in efforts made to inform parents about alternative scholastic options for their children. Students who attend such schools have the option to switch to a more successful district school and additional tutoring opportunities should be made available to them. To address the problem of transportation costs to new schools, Margaret Spellings suggested that funding set aside for that purpose be increased.
In regards to the frequent requests for flexibility in measuring the progress of students with disabilities and those with limited English skills, the Secretary of Education stated, "the Department promulgated regulations to permit States to include in their AYP [Annual Yearly Progress] determinations the proficient and advanced scores of students with disabilities assessed based on alternate and modified academic achievement standards, as well as regulations that provide flexibility in the assessment of, and accountability for, recently arrived and former LEP [Limited English Proficiency]students."
The official version of this statement will be made available today in the Federal Register, and the public will have 60 days to respond before proceedings move forward.
As the NCLB primarily affects students, Scholarships.com has created an opportunity for them to voice their opinions about its effectiveness. In the 2008 Scholarships.com Resolve to Evolve Essay Scholarship, high school seniors were asked to determine and elaborate on why the NCLB has or has not been successful in reaching its goals. The number and quality of responses were nothing short of impressive. Winners of the annual Resolve to Evolve competition will be announced on June 30, and their essays will be made available to the public. Top responses will also be forwarded to the proper officials in the hope that we too can be a part of the solution.

To alleviate the affects of the intensifying credit crunch, Sallie Mae has been lobbying for government assistance. In past months, student lenders have been struggling to find buyers for both their loans and their loan securities. Sallie Mae, the largest student lender in the business, has turned to the government for assistance, asking that the US Treasury assuage loan market tensions by purchasing their securities.
In yesterday's PBS Nightly Business Report, specialty finance analyst Sameer Gokhale and student loan expert Tom Stanton weighed in on the potential effects of such a move. According to Sameer Gokhale, a quick infusion of cash from the Treasury would, "help all of those lenders and ultimately result in a smoother flow of capital back into the student loan system."
Tom Stanton took a different approach claiming that federal intervention was not yet necessary. "In its last year as a government sponsored enterprise, Sallie Mae made something like 73 percent return on equity, a very generous return. There's no need at this point to go back to the government and get support," he stated.
Even if student lenders continue to drop out of the government's FFEL program and assistance such as that requested by Sallie Mae is not offered by the Treasury, students will have federal student aid resources to rely on. A Department of Education lender of last resort measure wherein the government would act as a lender to students denied loans by other lenders would prevent financial catastrophe, but according to the Nightly Business Report Correspondent Stephanie Dhue, resorting to such a plan would be more time consuming than enhancing funds for the one already in place.
The lender of last resort is yet untested, and, although details are being addressed by Congress, setting up the new program could be painstaking for schools. However, with the Chronicle of Higher Education citing more than fifty FFEL student lender departures, the program may be put into action regardless.

On Thursday, the US House of Representatives passed a bill aimed at halting the mass leave of student lenders from the federal loan program. According to The Chronicle of Higher Education, more than 50 lenders have left the Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL) Program to date. The growing departure has left families fearing that students will have no one to turn to for financial assistance once their Pell Grants and savings run dry.
To lessen the plight of FFEL lenders and students who depend on them for financial assistance, the bill would allow the Secretary of Education to purchase loans student lenders were not able to sell to investors. By pouring money into the loan market, the Department of Education would enable student lenders to use their capital for issuing new loans rather than paying out the original ones.
The new bill also addressed the lender of last resort, an emergency plan wherein guaranty agencies would be forced to lend money to students who were turned away by other lenders. Under the new plan, the Department of Education would have permission to advance funding to the agencies if need should arise.
To make the transition from the FFEL to the lender of last resort loan program easier on students, loans would be petitioned for on a college by college basis rather than a student by student one. Based on previous outlines of the untested program, students in need of a lender of last resort loan would have had to seek permission from the Department of Education and prove that at least two lenders had turned them down before receiving money.
A bill similar to the House version was introduced but not yet addressed by the Senate. Before the ideas are implemented, both the House and the Senate will have to iron out differences and send the final version to the president for approval.

Nervous about economic turmoil and the uncertainty associated with oversized college loans, students are increasingly turning to community colleges for a low-cost alternative to a postsecondary education. Though certainly lower in cost, some students still need assistance in affording local schools. According to a recent study conducted by the Project on Student Debt, federal loans are not always an option for these students.
Based on the report, 20 percent of community college students living in eight states do not have access to low-interest federal loans. In Georgia, the state which fared worst, about 60 percent of community colleges did not participate in the federal loan program. Throughout the nation, the problem was most severe in low-income areas where students were most likely to seek out federal student aid in the form of loans.
After interviewing administrators at nonparticipating schools, it was found that the most cited reason for not taking part in the program was a fear that high default rates would lead to sanctions on Pell Grant disbursements to students. According to federal regulations, colleges with student default rates that exceed 25 percent for three consecutive years lose the ability to disburse the Pell Grant, a form of need-based federal aid that does not need to be repaid.
Capped at $4,310 for the 2007-2008 school year, the Pell Grant frequently suffices in making community college an option for students, especially those who work while attending school. However, the size of the grant is based on a student's Expect Family Contribution (EFC) as determined by information provided on one's FAFSA, and many complain that the form does not take into account special circumstances that could result in a student's inability to contribute the full expected amount. Families who receive no federal assistance in the form of a Pell Grant and those who receive an insufficient amount may be forced to take out more expensive private loans to attend. If ineligible, they may have to work until college is an affordable option.

Applying for a number of small scholarships is a great way to accumulate financial aid for college, but some students prefer to go straight for the big fish. Rather than follow the, "a penny saved is a penny earned" mantra, they prefer to abide by the, "go for the gold" one.
Whether you are the former or the latter, plenty of scholarship opportunities are available to you. But be advised, the bigger the award, the bigger the competition. Students who find information about a big-ticket scholarship frequently opt for that rather than spend time on one which, in comparison, looks like a conciliatory prize.
If you're looking for top awards, check out the full ride scholarships listed below. For more information about college scholarships and grants you may be eligible to receive, try conducting a free college scholarship search. If you are looking for full tuition scholarships granted by your current or future college or university---most award a handful of them--- try visiting their financial aid office websites. You may conduct a free college search to find these websites along with estimated costs of attendance.
The Tom Joyner Foundation Full Ride Scholarship

Because graduate and professional school students are no longer eligible for Pell Grants, they must search elsewhere for financial assistance. A common option is the fellowship--a financial aid opportunity created to help graduate students obtain their degree.
Master, doctoral and professional school candidates who demonstrate both merit and dedication are the most common recipients of fellowships. When searching for this type of aid, students are unlikely to come across awards that mirror the goofy, unusual duck tape outfit or left-handed student scholarships. More often than not, fellowships are geared towards students who are serious about their work—ones who display resolve and passion in their respective fields. They are commonly awarded to individuals who plan to conduct research in a certain field or to ones who plan to begin a career in a subject designated by the fellowship provider.
Below are a few examples of fellowship opportunities you may be eligible to receive. Many awards are conferred annually, so check back for updated deadlines. For additional information about financial aid options, try conducting a free college scholarship search.
AACC International Fellowship
The foundation previously known as the American Association of Cereal Chemists (AACC) is awarding fellowships in the amounts of $2,000, $2,500 and $3,000 to students who conduct research directly related to grain-based food science or technology. Students must be pursuing an MS or Ph.D. degree to be eligible.

Among the many complaints voiced by students in need of federal aid are those concerning insufficient Pell Grant awards and a lack of consideration for students who are smart, but not exactly the braniac kind of smart. These are valid worries, and while they have not been tended to fully, the SMART Grant is a start.
Approved by the Senate in late December of 2005, the relatively new SMART Grant allows students who have demonstrated financial need to receive over and above their annual Pell Grant limit. Eligible students may receive up to $4,000 in SMART Grant money just by filling out a FAFSA.
Because the SMART Grant has been largely overshadowed by the more common and better-known Pell Grant, many students are unfamiliar with the award. The SMART Grant can more than double a student's grant money, but there are a number of stipulations that considerably narrow the eligibility pool.
To be eligible for the SMART Grant, students must have already demonstrated sufficient financial need and must have been eligible for the Pell Grant. But that in itself is not enough. Students must also be majoring in the physical, life, or computer sciences, mathematics, technology, engineering or in a foreign language determined critical to national security. To show that they are dedicated to graduating with a degree in one of the aforementioned fields, students must have already completed the first two years of their undergraduate program—while maintaining at minimum 3.0 GPA. Additionally, students must be enrolled full time and must be taking at least one course required for the completion of their major during the term the grant is received.
Assuming the student meets all of the above criteria, the SMART Grant can make a big difference in an individual's ability to cover college costs. A Pell Grant award may not exceed $3,410 for the 2007-2008 schools year, an amount unlikely to cover annual college tuition, let alone fees and living expenses. An extra $4,000 would certainly make a difference.

"Survival of Consciousness" with Dean Radin and Julie Beischel (part 1 of 3)
A Matter of Life and Death
Visionaries: Julie Beischel, PhD and Dean Radin, PhD
Half a dozen classes of scientific evidence exist for some form of survival of consciousness after bodily death; some are more persuasive than others. We will review this evidence and assess the current state of the art. One of the most intriguing classes of survival research focuses on mediums and the information they report. Dean and Julie examine recent advances in mediumship research methods, and attendees will have the opportunity to participate in a demonstration with certified research mediums. They also suggest ways of advancing our understanding of the perennial question of survival, which is literally a matter of life and death.

Questions & Answers
Low Price Guarantee
The Joe Rocket Subzero Waterproof Gloves for Women are your wind and waterproof option for riding in cold weather, hence the name Sub-Zero. These motorcycle gloves will keep you riding and staying warm when the temperatures start to drop.
Keep warm and dry in the most extreme riding conditions without sacrificing feel or mobility.
Please measure the circumference of your hand starting at the top side of the base of your thumb (see image chart) using a cloth tape measure and choose your size from the chart below.Please note all measurements are in inches.
Comment: Just got these gloves a few weeks ago. Tested so far down to 40°, and kept my fingers warm, which
I usually have a problem with. Have recommended to my friends. Good quality, great price! Thanks Jafrum for never dissapointing!
Comment: By my hand measurement, I should wear a Small... and as indicated, it's fits perfectly around my hand... however the fingers "crotches" are up near my first knuckle - so these would be great if you have shorter fingers (mine are long and skinny, so I frequently have this problem and don't blame Joe Rocket).
Germantown, MD
Comment: I bought these gloves because my hands always freeze when I'm outside in the winter. While I'm not a hard-core rider in the winter, I did want to be able to ride when the temps got lower than 50. So, I got these gloves and my husband and I went snowmobiling. The temp dropped from 48 degrees to 8 degrees while we were riding, but my hands stayed toasty warm!
My only "complaint" is that if your hands get a tad sweaty and you take off the gloves, the lining gets bunched up in the fingers. It took me a little finagling to get it right again, but that is no big deal - my hands were sweating and it was COLD out! :)
Comment: I always wear a medium in all gloves and I did the measurement just like it showed but these are still too small. My fingers are tight at the end of the gloves so there is no space for warm air to keep my fingers warm.

Fear the Beard vs. Fear the Brow. Should be a great game! I hope Austin can have a break out game and shoot better from the field.
Fear the Beard vs. Fear the Brow. Should be a great game! I hope Austin can have a break out game and shoot better from the field.
Harden has been below-average since the first 2 games. As expected, it doesn't appear that he can carry a team. Since the first 2 games, his TO% is through the roof, and his TS% is horrible. Assists and rebounds have gone down too. Not very impressed so far.
i would put aminu on harden and let rivers guard parsons
I'm curious to see how we attack the Rockets. Do we let Lopez and Asik duke it out for 30 min or try to spread them out by bringing Anderson and see if the Rockets try to match up with someone smaller.
Parsons is too tall for Rivers.
Harden has also had the likes of Iggy and Tony Allen guard him. Plus, no other scoring threat. Teams are trapping, double teaming. Lin has been a disappointment as well, even though I didn't think he was that good in the first place.
Emeka Okafor - Joe Smith - Carmelo Anthony - Manu Ginobili - Jason Williams
Al Jefferson - James Posey - Aaron McKie - Shaun Livingston
Not sure if they'll have their head coach as he's taken a leave of absence to tend to a family matter.
I don't think anyone in their right minds would put Rivers on Parsons regularly. That's asking Parsons to go off which he is very capable of. Rivers should be able to slow Harden a bit with some help defense. The problem will be Asik and Lin. We will have to keep Asik off the boards and keep Lin out of the paint. Vasquez/Roberts defense will be important in this game.
We would match up pretty well against this team if Gordon wasn't injured...
The Hornets wins this game 97-89
True Love
Im ****ing excited, I love how we're playing
New Orleans Pelicans-Seattle Seahawks-Atlanta Braves-Anaheim Ducks
RIP HunnyB
This fits HunnyB/FlyGirl so well- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyzTiSEfM00
If only we had an elite 2 guard to cancel out Harden on both sides of the ball.
Why the hell is this up now, the game isn't for another three days?
Because j_bones doesn't want someone else to start a thread before him!
Can't we just vote and appoint j_bones the 'game thread starter'?
We do need something to talk about before Wednesday... and GO SEAHAWKS!!
Now I do voice overs. Finally!
Click here for my first voice demo!
I would rather see Miller start at the 2 instead of Rivers. A better shooter, better defender, and bigger.
Dude......the game is on Wednesday. It's Sunday. This is just getting ridiculous.

I actually like TS game threads. I appreciate this awesome rivalry on HR lol

Ronald Stanton Duman PhD
Elizabeth Mears and House Jameson Professor of Psychiatry and Professor of Neurobiology; Director, Abraham Ribicoff Research Facilities
Biographical Info
Dr. Duman received his doctorate degree from the University
of Texas in Houston and conducted postgraduate work at Yale University before
joining the faculty there. He has written and/or co-authored over 250 original
papers, reviews and book chapters, and has presented over 150 invited lectures.
Dr. Duman is also on the editorial board of several prestigious journals and
serves as a consultant for a number of biotech and pharmaceutical companies.
Dr. Duman's work has focused on the molecular and cellular actions of antidepressants and stress, providing the basis for a neurotrophic hypothesis of depression. This hypothesis is based on work demonstrating that chronic antidepressant treatment increases the expression of neurotrophic factors, and increases the proliferation of new neurons and glia in the adult brain. These effects counteract the atrophy and cell loss that is caused by stress and that is thought to underlie, in part, the pathophysiology of depression. These findings represent groundbreaking advances in our understanding of antidepressants and provide a framework for developing novel therapeutic agents.
International Activity
- Molecular Mechanisms of Stress & Antidepressants
Ronald Duman is collaborating with a number of Japanese researchers to study the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying the actions of stress and antidepressants.
- Neurotrophic Factors and Antidepressants
Professor Duman collaborates with a former student on the emphasis on the influence of early postnatal stress and the long-term effects of such stress on the adult animal. This focuses on interests in antidepressants and identifying mechanisms for developing better therapeutic agents. One of the actions that Dr. Duman has found is that antidepressants increase neurotrophic factors in the brain. Neurotrophic, as the name implies, means that these factors provide support for the survival as well as function of neurons. There is growing evidence, from their work, as well as others, that decreases in the survival and function of neurons contributes to depression and that antidepressants work in part by blocking or reversing these effects.

The sashes are nice quality but the silver color seemed a little off to me. It was almost as if it has a slight blue tint. However, for the price it's a great deal. It's just as affordable to purchase these as it is to rent them.(Posted on 12/6/12)
