2010/11 Salary Information
Date: 8 June 2010
To: CLA Faculty and Academic Staff
From: James A. Parente, Jr., Dean, and Richa Nagar, Associate Dean for Faculty
RE: 2010/11 Salary Information
We write to provide you with information about the salaries of faculty and academic staff in the College of Liberal Arts during the 2010/11 fiscal year, and to provide information about the delivery of salary increases for FY11. This communication addresses several key matters which will impact salaries in the coming year, including the temporary reduction in pay, the delivery of merit increases, promotional increases for faculty and academic staff, and the 27th pay period. Salary decisions will be communicated to faculty and academic staff by chairs/directors of academic units, or by other appropriate unit heads or supervisors.
This message is intended for faculty and academic professional and administrative (P/A) staff. Faculty include tenured faculty, tenure-track faculty, annually renewable contract faculty, and visiting faculty. P/A staff include instructional, professional, and administrative positions such as lecturers and teaching specialists, advisors, coordinators, and education specialists, research associates, program directors, and others.
Temporary Reduction in Pay
The University has declared a state of financial stringency under Section 4.5 of the Board of Regents Policy on Faculty Tenure. Under this state of financial stringency, the salaries of faculty and academic staff during 2010/11 will be subject to a 1.15% temporary reduction in pay, as provided by the University's 2010/11 Academic Salary Memo. The temporary reduction in pay takes effect 7 June 2010, the first day of the first pay period of the 2010/11 fiscal year, and will be reflected in biweekly paychecks beginning 1 July 2010.
The temporary reduction in pay applies to all types of pay faculty and academic staff may receive during 2010/11, including base salaries, recurring additions to base salaries (merit, retention and promotional increases), administrative augmentations and special awards delivered during the 2010/11 fiscal year, summer instructional or other summer appointments, and summer research support paid as salary. The temporary reduction in pay applies to all sources of funding from which pay is drawn, including internal and external sources, endowments, sponsored projects, etc.
The savings realized from the temporary reduction in pay will remain in the funding source. For salaries supported by external grants or fellowships, internal faculty research accounts, or endowments, the savings will remain with the grant or fellowship, faculty research account, or endowment, to be used for other appropriate purposes. For salaries supported by the college's central allocation or other collegiate resources, the savings will remain in the college, to assist in managing the college's overall budget during this challenging time.
Delivery of Merit Increases
To assist with the budget challenges facing the University, the delivery of recurring merit increases to base salaries of faculty and academic staff has been delayed until January 2011.
- Merit increases for faculty and academic staff on nine-month appointments (term B) take effect with the pay period beginning 31 January 2011.
- Merit increases for faculty and academic staff on nine-month appointments who receive their salary over twelve months (term BJ; 9-over-12) take effect with the pay period beginning 3 January 2011.
- Merit increases for faculty and academic staff on twelve-month appointments (term A) take effect with the pay period beginning 3 January 2011.
The varied implementation dates are necessary to ensure that faculty and academic staff receive a proportionate amount of the merit increase awarded to them, irrespective of the length of appointment or whether they have chosen to have their nine-month salary paid to them over the twelve-month fiscal year.
Promotional Increases
Faculty and academic staff promoted during 2009/10 will receive promotional increases to their base salaries for 2010/11, consistent with the Academic Salary Memo. Promotional increases are subject to the 1.15% temporary reduction in pay in effect for 2010/11.
- Promotional increases for faculty and academic staff on nine-month appointments (term B) take effect with the pay period beginning 30 August 2010.
- Promotional increases for faculty and academic staff on nine-month appointments who receive their salary over twelve months (term BJ; 9-over-12) take effect with the pay period beginning 7 June 2010.
- Promotional increases for faculty and academic staff on twelve-month appointments (term A) take effect with the pay period beginning 7 June 2010.
27th Pay Period
During the 2010/11 fiscal year there will be 27 pay periods instead of the typical 26. This is because there are 54 weeks in the University's 2010/11 payroll calendar (7 June 2010 to 19 June 2011). Faculty and academic staff who normally receive 26 paychecks will receive 27 paychecks in 2010/11.
- Faculty and academic staff on nine-month appointments who receive their salary over nine months (term B) will not be affected by the 27th pay period.
- Faculty and academic staff on nine-month appointments who receive their salary over twelve months (term BJ; 9-over-12) will have the pay for their nine-month appointment spread over 27 paychecks in the 2010/11 fiscal year. This means that the total pay for a nine-month appointment will not be impacted by the 27th pay period, but the amount of pay received on each paycheck will be less due to spreading the pay over 27 pay periods instead of 26.
- Faculty and academic staff on twelve-month appointments (term A) will receive 27 paychecks in the 2010/11 fiscal year because they are appointed and working for 54 weeks during 2010/11 (7 June 2010 to 19 June 2011). The appointments of twelve-month faculty and academic staff are extended by two weeks for 2010/11, and they will receive a 27th pay check for the additional two weeks of work

Mayor Iorio unveils slimmed down Tampa budget
Mitch E. Perry
WMNF Drive-Time News Thursday | Listen to this entire show:
An upbeat Tampa Mayor Pam Iorio unveiled her budget for the next fiscal year.
She mentioned several times during today's presentation to the City Council that it had been a challenging process necessitated by the rollback of ad valorem taxes dictated by property tax reform.
Like every municipality in Florida, the city of Tampa is having to make major adjustments in the way it runs its business. Cuts from the city payroll include $20 million and 240 jobs. The budget is actually increasing this year, to$761 million, but thatâs because the city is using bond money to fund some projects.
The department that suffered the most cuts is the cityâs Parks and Recreation Department.
Iorio warned the City Council that when public hearings on her budget commence next month, the loudest outcry will probably come from citizens who will be critical of the quality of life in the parks.
Iorio is also cutting the funding of every nonprofit that the city supports; those operating out of city-owned buildings, such as Tampa Theatre, will lose 10 percent; others will lose 20 percent.
She called the cuts "painful" but said the directors of the various groups were appreciative that the cuts werenât more drastic.
The recently re-elected mayor seemed more enthusiastic than ever in assessing the ups and downs of running Tampa with these new challenges.
She said that downtown Tampa will begin its tranformation this year, beginning with the construction of a new art museum.
And Iorio said that the city has money from taxing the downtown district to begin redesigning Massey Park, best known as a spot where some citizens tried to feed the homeless three years ago.
Iorio said one place where sheâs trying to channel more funds is the Fire Department.
And sheâs recommending foregoing cost-of-living increases for herself and city council members.
When asked about those city employees who were notified last month that they had 90 days to find a new job, Iorio said she would issue a report to the City Council on the status on each employee.
The Council will hold two public hearings on the budget on Sept. 4th and Sept. 19th at 5 p.m.comments powered by Disqus

LONDON, Feb 1, 2013 (AFP) - The Malaysian-owned team Caterham announced on Friday that Dutchman Giedo van der Garde will step up from the GP2 series to become their second driver for the forthcoming Formula One season.
The 27-year-old, who had also been employed as Caterham's reserve driver, joins Charles Pic of France in an all-new driver roster.
"Everyone in the team is delighted that we can finally confirm that Giedo will be racing for us in the 2013 FIA Formula One World Championship," said Caterham team principal Cyril Abiteboul.
"He has been part of our family since early 2012, when he joined our GP2 team and was appointed as reserve driver for the F1 team.
"He acquitted himself extremely well in both his GP2 season and his six free practice sessions, progressively improving his outright pace, technical feedback and his relationship with his engineers and mechanics, giving us the clear justification for promoting him to F1."
Giedo van der Garde: "I am absolutely delighted to confirm that I will be racing in the 2013 F1 World Championship with Caterham F1 Team. I want to thank Cyril, Tony Fernandes, McGregor and everyone who has worked so hard to make this happen.
"I know I am ready to take the step up to F1 and all the work I have done throughout my career, and particularly in the last year with this team, has brought me to my ultimate goal. Throughout 2012 I was able to fully integrate myself into the team, both through the FP1 sessions I ran at a number of tracks that were then new to me, and as Reserve Driver, fully embedded with the team throughout the season."
The 2013 F1 season begins in Melbourne on March 17.

The 70% Report does not provide the base assumptions for CO2 allowances and future fuel prices. In addition, while the focus of proposed legislation has been on a cap-and-trade system, there has been discussion of a different structure such as a carbon tax. A carbon tax could have significantly different implications for power plants using conventional fossil-fuel-fired equipment and power plants designed around renewable fuels (e.g., biomass or solar) than would a cap-and-trade system for greenhouse gas credits. Given the uncertainty in future greenhouse gas regulations and the potential variability in future fuel prices (either as a result of the inherent variability in fuel prices or as the result of a carbon tax), the committee suggests that the life-cycle costs include an analysis of sensitivity to variations in CO2 allowances and fuel prices. Because implementation of certain options will be phased in over time, the impacts of variations in CO2 allowances and fuel prices may differ over the life of each option.
The 70% Report discusses only one deep tunnel option for the utility distribution system. In order to provide an adequate basis for comparing options, it is suggested that a study be made of potential distribution tunnel layouts and available construction methods (e.g., microtunneling, horizontal directional drilling) to assess the best approaches for minimizing disruptions to the surface, traffic, and the community while optimizing the efficiency, phasing, and redundancy of the system, and improving the safety of the tunnel environment for workers conducting maintenance and repair activities. As noted above, such options may require renegotiating current agreements with the Office of Compliance regarding maximum distances between egress points.
The final report should provide a concise summary of the results and rationale for the selected option(s). The methodology and indices (including the acceptable level(s) for these indices) used for evaluating and selecting the appropriate option(s) should be included.

Peruvian pop sensation Mia Mont, the voice behind the Spanish version of "Dhoom: 3″ title track, says it was a dream come true for her to sing in Bollywood, but was nervous since her style differs from Indian music.
The 24-year-old singer, whose songs are mostly influenced by pop music of the 1980s, says she would like to act in Bollywood movies.
"I am really grateful that the Bollywood community has opened to me in a really good way," the promising voice of Latin pop music told PTI from Lima, Peru's capital city. Mia says her record label was approached with an offer by the producers of the Aamir Khan-Katrina Kaif starrer "Dhoom Machale Dhoom", and thus began her collaborative journey.
"The truth is that this experience was actually a surprise for me. The producers, Yash Raj Films, contacted my record label for the project. I was really exited but at the same time nervous. It definitely was a whole new experience for me because the way I sing pop music in Spanish or English is completely different from the way Indian music is sung", says Mia.
"I was basically inspired by the original version of the song and my recording team led by my producer Ed Montoya delivered a song that ultimately convinced the producers of 'Dhoom: 3′," says the fan of melody queen Shreya Ghoshal.
"The response to the Spanish version of the song has been amazing," adds Mia A songwriter too, Mia says she wishes to act in Bollywood movies as they give a lot of attention to music, dancing and styling.
"I would love to perform other Bollywood songs in the near future. I really enjoyed it and it has been an honour. Acting is something that I am also considering to complement my career, so in that sense Bollywood is a dream," she said in an email interview.
"I love that there's a lot of attention to music, dancing, photography, styling. India has a very developed industry that aims to produce pretty amazing movies. Also, I love how Indian movies always manage to represent the country's culture and the whole world is starting to know more about India since the movies are getting more attention," says Mia, who started singing when she was just eight years old.
The Latino singer says she wants to make people laugh, cry or dedicate her songs to dear ones. "My songs talk about my own experiences and also of my friends. They are mostly about love and following your dreams," Mia says.
The Spanish version of the song "Dhoom Machale Dhoom" starring Katrina Kaif is about to be introduced on radio stations in Peru, she says. "There are a lot of people demanding the song to be played on radio."
"Dhoom: 3″ premiered in Peru on January 16. Mia's first single "Por El" (By Him) came out in 2010 and was a huge …continued »

some of the challenges experienced by commercial aircraft and then discusses other strategies for improved fuel efficiency. Since the preceding NRC report dealt with improving engine efficiency, an important determinant of fuel consumption, that strategy is not covered here.3
The aging and service use of commercial aircraft and jet engines take a toll, reducing aerodynamic and propulsion efficiency, as evidenced by increased fuel burn. As aircraft age and material wears, or suffers minor damage, fuel efficiency tends to decline because of external repairs, increased air leakage from the fuselage, weight gain from the entry of moisture and from years of modification programs, and engine deterioration. It is common for new commercial aircraft types to experience fuel burn increases over the specification (or "book") level of 2-4 percent within 4 years of entry into service. The regulatory agencies and internal technical organizations that certify continued airworthiness set the allowable in-service expansion of the original by tight manufacturing tolerances to accommodate the effects of normal wear and tear on commercial machinery.
Then, too, owners and operators of aircraft often push the performance limits of their equipment to achieve greater payload, range, endurance, or takeoff performance. Regardless of the specifications that prevailed when the aircraft were procured, political, regulatory, economic, or demographic influences open up prospects for new missions or markets that lie tauntingly just beyond the existing capabilities of existing in-service aircraft. Aircraft operators must then either seek new equipment with the required performance or attempt to improve the performance of existing equipment, through modification, to accommodate those new missions and markets. Specific strategies to take on these challenges are discussed below.
Lessons learned from the commercial airplane industry suggest that aerodynamic improvements using strategies other than wingtip modification are worth consideration for the Air Force's fleet of aircraft. Many of the its transport aircraft were designed in the early days of swept-wing trans-

Awakening your Seven Major Chakras
Most of us here in India are familiar with Chakras to the extent that we know they exist in our body. But we don't really get in to the specifics of where the Chakras are located and what do they do? Chakras are well known in the East, and are fast gaining popularity in the West.
But as we in the East have moved away from our roots, the knowledge of Chakras is no longer taught to us in our system of education, instead we learn a horse load of stuff that will never come to much use.
The knowledge of Chakras is an alternative science, that has common grounds with other ancient healing tools namely, Tibetan Bön, buddhist tantra Vajrayana, Chinese Qigong and even Islamic Sufism. Let's get to know more about Chakras!
Chakras are wheel shaped, vortexes of energy located along the spinal cord, they start from the tail bone and end at the crown of the head. Chakras are the focal point of reception and transmission of energies. Depicted either like a wheel with spokes or a flower with petals, the bottom chakra starts with just four and the top chakra ends with one thousand petals.
Now that should be a good enough introduction to each of the seven main chakras. When you become aware of your Chakras and learn to activate them, you can feel the energy flow through you, healing yourself and connecting with the cosmos. In the video below we get to see how Chakras work with transmitting energy in ourselves and the environment.
What does one get when they activate their Chakras or balance their Chakras? Apart from better health one may experience psychic or spiritual perceptions and visions. Once your Chakras have awakened, they rewire your neural circuitry bringing and awakening parts of your brain that have been dormant. The crown Chakra awakens when all your chakras are open and that is known as the Kundalini awakening, you can download a pdf to learn more about the Yoga Kundalini Upansihad.
Our planners and educationists should think over this kind of tricks to strengthen the human power
Namaste All,
This is a very good information you have provided. We also do meditation. We are trying to do it on a very large scale, so that everyone can be benefitted. Activating our chakras means a bright and healthier future.
So to activate all the chakras one must do meditation at least for about 15-20 mins everyday.
Thank you,
Really it is appreciable. i Knlow first time in my life that we have such inner capabilities which controlling us in a various manner whole life . how much we are depend upon it but due to lack of knowledge we think that our physical body shap is our originiality.
very very very thankful to u sir
Hi Clyde,
this was a very informative piece of info on chakra's, and perfectly put together with apt videos.
thanks for the post,
A brief base map is hence on the tab for an upcomin post
There are countless maps of the human experience. whatever maps are passed on by traditions or heretics were originally created and passed on to serve as information to floss the mind of average 'awakening' human (laziness & fear of the unknown being the chief obstacles that one faces at this stage)….. but it was always understood that a dedicated explorer & warrior would understand the pattern of the teachings and apply it into his life and based on the feedback of the experiences, would invent new creative variations to the base map and implement it as a discipline to set the stage for a lifetime of tweaking based on future experiences and experimentations….FULL POWER!! 😀
The point here is that although the chakras are an accurate basic map, the terms used in hindu literature give a warped or distorted impression to a person trained in typical western thought (capitalism being the basic principle of this "in your face" culture). and chakras basically stem from blavatsky's school of thought. western esoteric traditions are known to have compromised authentic eastern & western philisophy into order to melt them to create something new…and like all the hundrends of new ageers popping up all round the world … all this can be equally destructive with unstable minds…
There are also many modern maps that are more complete that ever before…obviously because we have exposure to more information than anyone before could possibly even dream of. Read them all and build you own personal map.

Wayne made his dj'ing debut at London's infamous Red Heart party in April 1996, performing alongside Grace Jones to a dancefloor of 3,000. However, it was his residence at London's world's famous Heaven nightclub that made Wayne a household name. Wayne has gone on to play huge festivals all over the world including Sydney Mardi Gras, Sydney Harbour Party, Sydney Gay Games, Berlin Love Parade, World Pride,the Adventjah Festival, Folsom St Fair, Fantasis in Bangkok, White Party Palm Springs, Winter Party Miami, White Party Miami, WinterPride, Provincetown independence, Hell & Heaven Brazil, San Diego Zoo Party, and the prestigious Fire Island Pines Party & Independence Day Party.
Over the last year his travels have taken him to clubs globally from Mexico City to New Mexico, from Sydney to Shanghai, from Johannesburg to Juneau and from London to Lima. Wayne is also a resident on the Atlantis cruises.
Wayne G's production and remixing skills have been much in demand, his credits include remixes of tracks by Cher, Madonna, Lady Gaga, Kylie Minogue, Christina Aguliera, Celine Dion, Backstreet Boys, Deborah Cox, Whitney Houston, Darren Hayes, Erasure, Jerry Springer The Opera, Kelis, Alexis Jordan, Olive, Holly Johnson, Jimmy Somerville, Belinda Carlisle, to name a few.

Averse to categorization in any one particular musical style, Wayne takes crowd on a musical journey starting with house, anthemic vocal house and the sound he created for Heaven's dance floor, bringing the energy, percussive beats and the uplifting infection riffs seamlessly together to create a melodic high energy journey. His sets are notorious for being filled with his own productions, many of which remain unheard unless you get to experience on of his marathon sets. From the 150bpm Hard House sounds of the raves to the funky house sounds of classic house. He is a DJ/Producer that has no boundries and no limits.

With the year anniversary of 9-11 approaching, the topic of memorializing is once again a lively one. One man, living two blocks south of what used to be the World Trade Center, has turned to the web to voice his opinion on this topic. After seeing his neighborhood turn into a tourist trap with 'gawking suburbanites' taking snapshots, and 'crass opportunists' hawking quickly churned-out souvenirs, Todd Hulin responds with 'Twin Towers over Ground Zero,' America's number one theme park. Todd, of woodenteeth.com, is not new to parody, and this site reminds how memorializing can go so very wrong.

Coach Wilson's Weekly Press Conference - Oct. 9
Oct. 9, 2012
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - Indiana head football coach Kevin Wilson met with the assembled media at his weekly Tuesday afternoon press conference. Assistant offensive coordinator Kevin Johns and special teams coordinator Mark Hagen also discussed Saturday's primetime showdown with Ohio State.
Below is a partial transcript:
Opening Statement:
"Defensively, again in the scoring zone, they're 5-for-5, four touchdowns and a field goal. You get one more stop and a field goal and its 27-27. That's a four-point differential. We're yielding too many points, so we've worked a lot in score zone and we've worked a lot in third down. Our third-down defense was better. They were 35 percent and we were 65 on stops. That's pretty good. That's better than it was the previous two weeks when we were 50 percent, so we did make some strides. Adam Replogle was our player of the game. He's playing outstanding for us. He's playing hard and is one of our best players, but also one of our best guys, great student, great off the field and he's what we want a Hoosier to look like and someone to represent our program.
"Offensively, we struggled in the second half, a bunch of three-and-outs, 4-of-15 on third downs, plus we are at the 5-yard line we did not get the TD, with only 45 plays getting positive yards, completed passes, running, we need to get that up. When you play a good defense, it's hard, but we need more positive plays. Effort was good, energy in the first half was awesome, tempo was awesome, zero turnovers was good. We had one loose ball, lucky to get that back. D'Angelo Roberts put the ball on the ground one time. We can't have that, but again we did come out playing a pretty good first half and that's an awfully good defense. Overall, we had a great first half. We just need to back it up with a good second.
"On to Ohio State. They're a good program, as always, good players, well-coached, good challenge. We're off to a good start with two good days, and we'll need a good week to play well and keep moving forward because that's what we're doing."

The number of small businesses that sold in 2013 grew 49 percent compared to 2012, but it's still a buyer's market, according to BizBuySell, an Internet-based business-for-sale marketplace.
That represents the first year of extreme improvement in the business-for-sale industry since levels reached record lows in mid-2009.
This year was the year of recovery that everyone has been waiting for since the September 2008 financial crisis. After the onset of the recession, transaction activity fell sharply until mid-2009 and then bumped along without meaningful growth.
In 2013, 7,056 small business sales were reported by brokers to BizBuySell.com, a large spike over the 4,730 transactions reported in 2012. The improvement was led by exceptional growth in the restaurant and retail markets. Yearly restaurant transactions rose 78 percent in 2013 compared to 2012, and retail business sales grew by 71 percent.
BizBuySell said the increase in 2013 small business sales can be attributed to multiple factors, including the improving economy, strong supply-and-demand fundamentals (i.e., an aging business owner demographic and an increase in the number of qualified business buyers), and continued improvement in small business financial performance.
The report reflected the improved business performance, as the median revenue of small businesses sold rose 13 percent to $405,905 and median cash flow grew 9 percent to $97,000. Strong financial improvement, in turn, helped push the median sale price up 13 percent to $180,000.
However, the fact that it is still a buyer's market is revealed by the fact that the average revenue and cash flow multiples fell 1.7 percent and 3.0 percent, respectively, in 2013.

I made this and poured it over chicken breasts, and baked it for 25-30 mins at 350. It was really really good! I served it with some pasta tossed in parmesan and garlic butter. Really tasty, and...
I cut out the green onion because I have some picky eatter in my house and added a teaspoon of dijon mustard to give the sauce a little punch! It was amazing over simple over baked salmon.

Color Palette Soap Challenge Entry
Most of the time I love to just come up with stuff, but some times I like to be told what to do! :) So this week I made a soap for the Color Palette Soap Challenge, hosted by The Bath Alchemy blog. I had to create a soap using at least 3 colors from this challenge's palette, called "Beaded Bright." You can see the palette and the entry info at this link, if you'd like to enter future challenges.
To channel the spirit of this contest, I used all of the colors and made a fun, irregular diagonal stripe in my signature pop shape. This palette is nice and summery and here in San Diego it is definitely still summer! I used my Soapylove Guava Shave Ice fragrance from the new Island Style Soap Colorant kit. It's sweet and bright. The warm pink tones in this palette make me think of Guava, so that worked for me! Plus it's still a popsicle shape, so shave ice is just right!
This style has 9 layers so it's definitely too complex for my normal line (although some of my most complex designs are available in a new mini collection called PopDesign).
Today (9/9) is the first day people can post their entries, so I look forward to seeing how other people interpreted the challenge into soap! May the best soap win! :)

Jujitsu Rabbi and the Godless Blonde: A True Storyby Rebecca Dana

"For a generation of women who grew up watching Sex and the City, Manhattan is the Promised Land—or as Rebecca Dana puts it in her hilarious, self-deprecating new memoir, it's 'my Jerusalem—the shining city off in the distance, the only place to go'…[An] insightful tale of two fish out of water."—O Magazine
Rebecca Dana worshipped at the altar of Truman Capote and Nora Ephron, dreaming of moving to New York. After college, life in the city turned out just as she'd planned: glamorous parties; beautiful people; the perfect job, apartment and man. But when it all comes crashing down, she is catapulted into another world.
She moves into Brooklyn's Lubavitch community, and lives with Cosmo, a young Russian rabbi and jujitsu enthusiast. While Cosmo faces his disenchantment with Orthodoxy, Rebecca finds that her religion—the books and films that made New York seem like salvation—has also failed her. Shuttling between the worlds of religious extremism and secular excess, faith and fashion, Rebecca goes on a search for meaning.
A mix of Shalom Auslander and The Odd Couple, Jujitsu Rabbi and the Godless Blonde is a thought-provoking tale for the twenty-first century.
Includes a Readers Guide
Editorial Reviews
"[Dana's] take on being young and smart and emotionally adrift in the city is odd and charming enough to be that elusive thing: a true original."—Entertainment Weekly
"Dana is able to write hilariously about her temporary ignominy and the vicissitudes of her job as a fashion journalist because through it all she maintains an acute sensitivity for the absurd...And there are larger issues, such as which kinds of lives are worth pursuing, packed in along with the ground-level concerns of getting along with a crazy roommate."—The Daily Beast
"Rebecca Dana's funny, juicy memoir of her Brooklyn year with a most original housemate goes down like a terrific New York cocktail—with some sweetness, a snappy twist of sublime and plenty of heart."—Julie Metz, New York Times bestselling author of Perfection
"A fantastic read. Will make you want to take your life by the horns."—Morgan Spurlock, filmmaker
"A laugh-out-loud tour of heartbreak, fashion and the search for community in unexpected places."—Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
"[A] canny, buzz-inducing memoir…Funny, wily, audacious and captivating. Dana asserts her passion for glitz and high heels; vividly recounts her crazy adventures, profane and sacred; and saucily ponders life's big questions."—Booklist

A painter of stylized human figures and still lifes, especially close studies of seashells, she became known for Abstract Realism. She was one of the founding members of the New York Society of Women Artists and was also a pioneer of West Coast modernist art. Shore's ability to magnify common objects led to comparisons between her work and botanical studies of Georgia O'Keeffe.
Shore was born in Toronto, Canada, and took her art training at The Art Students League in New York City. She stayed in New York for many years and then attended London's Heatherly Art School.
In 1913, she went to Los Angeles and helped establish the Los Angeles Society of Modern Artists. She won a silver medal at the 1915 Pan-American Exposition in San Diego, and three years later, she and Helena Dunlap had a two-woman exhibition at the Los Angeles County Museum.
She returned to New York City and in 1921 took United States citizenship. Her artistic reputation increased and in the late 1920s, she had a retrospective of her work at the Worcester Art Museum in Massachusetts and got favorable reviews.
In 1924, she was among twenty-five women chosen to represent American women in Paris and that year also traveled to Mexico where she did portraits of artists Jose Orozco and Jean Charlot.
Three years later, she returned to California where she became a close companion to photographer Edward Weston, who did a series of photographs based on her perceptions of nature. In 1936, she worked for the Treasury Relief Art Project doing murals near Carmel and Monterey, one of them installed at the Monterey post office and another at the post office in Santa Cruz.
In her later years, she became reclusive in her home in Carmel, and the Carmel Art Association honored her posthumously with a retrospective of her paintings.

Sahand volcano (Kuh-e-Sahand) is located in NW Iran, about 60 km east of Lake Urmia and 40 km SSE of the city of Tabriz. The massive, extensively eroded calc-alkaline stratovolcano is one of the highest peaks in the Azarbaijan region and reaches a height of 3707 m. Numerous lava domes dot the lower flanks of the volcano. Pleistocene Potassium-Argon dates from 1.2-0.8 million years ago have been obtained (Innocenti et al., 1982), but Karakhanian et al. (2002) stated that eruptions at Sahand continued into the Holocene.
The Global Volcanism Program is not aware of any Holocene eruptions from Sahand. If this volcano has had large eruptions (VEI >= 4) prior to 10,000 years ago, information might be found on the Sahand page in the LaMEVE (Large Magnitude Explosive Volcanic Eruptions) database, a part of the Volcano Global Risk Identification and Analysis Project (VOGRIPA).

Sixth Time's the Charm by Equinox Chick
Rated: 1st-2nd Years [Reviews - 13]
Summary: James Potter had asked her before for a date, several times, although not always for himself. Now, as Lily Evans gazes at her reflection in the mirror, she wonders why he keeps asking her and just why she's finally said yes.
I am Equinox Chick of Hufflepuff and this story has been written for the first round of the Character Clinic Triathlon over at the MNFF beta boards. Prompt: First Kiss.
Disclaimer: I am not JK Rowling. Her lawyers agree, so don't get them riled by confusing us.
Thank you very much to Natalie (hestiajones) for beta'ing this fic for me. I need to also add that Natalie may be a Hufflepuff, but she does not have fluffy hair and in no way resembles the Hestia Jones that appears in this story. Finally, you may recognise some OC's from my fic Lions of Gryffindor. This isn't exactly 'caron' compliant with that story, but it kinda fits ... in parts ... sort of.

Yet Another Attack on Marco Rubio = Must Be Tuesday!
Alexander Bolton of The Hill is the latest DNC surrogate to cry wolf over a possible Marco Rubio Vice Presidential nomination:
Democrats have started to wage a political assault against Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), and the intensity of their attacks will intensify in the coming weeks.
The "intensity" will "intensify" (Note to Bolton: get yourself a thesaurus, dude.) only because members of the MSM like yourself will choose to forward the DNC narrative and like good liberal foot-soldiers continue to rehash the "bash Marco Rubio" minutae that's been discussed and debunked ad nauseum.
It's worth noting that there's not a single use of the word "Latino" in the article. That is most certainly by design.
And the Cesar Vargas quote is nothing but sheer identity politics:
"Marco Rubio does not represent what the Hispanic community is. He really doesn't represent a lot of Puerto Ricans, Dominican Americans and Mexican Americans,"
"He prefers to choose his party over his people,"
Marco Rubio's people are "Americans," whether they come from South America, Africa, Iceland, or an island in the Caribbean.

It wasn't so long ago that former Rutgers defensive tackle Eric LeGrand couldn't even move his shoulders, which is why it's hard not to marvel at his willingness to offer one of them to anybody facing a major life challenge.
If you don't know his story, you probably missed last year's ESPY Awards or walked past the aisle at Barnes and Noble where his two books are on display. He was the 20-year-old special teams player who suffered a severe spinal cord injury in a 2010 game against Army at MetLife Stadium that left him paralyzed from the neck down.

Wife, husband form successful partnership teaching life lessons, basketball
Together they devise game plans, pore over film and roam sidelines. Together they celebrate wins and mourn losses.
Together they stand. In games, that can be a problem.
Vickie Carrington coaches the girls basketball team at Horizon Christian Academy. So does Darren Carrington, another former athlete who keeps his wife, quite literally, on her toes.
"I have to tell him to sit down all the time," Vickie said, "because only one coach is allowed to stand up. It's always a battle. I'm about to sit down all the time because he's always standing."
Said daughter and freshman guard DiJonai Carrington: "My dad does most of the talking with the refs, so sometimes they get confused about who's the head coach."
That would be Vickie, who took over at Horizon in 2002. Since then, the former track standout has molded the Panthers into one of the area's top programs, winning a San Diego Section title in 2011 and sending dozens of players on to college careers. At 16-6 this winter, the Panthers are poised to make yet another deep playoff run.
Darren joined Vickie on the varsity team in 2003. For the former NFL safety, it was the perfect excuse to continue coaching their oldest daughter, DiArra, now a junior guard at the University of New Orleans. As an assistant for the Horizon football team, he's also coached their son and Oregon commit, Darren Jr.
"I think it's cool to have the opportunity to be in their lives in that way," said Darren Sr., who played four seasons with the Chargers. "I love it."
Darren met Vickie nearly three decades ago, when both were attending Northern Arizona University. He was a walk-on football player; she was a sprinter and competitive bodybuilder. They'd both played high school basketball.
They married in 1993. Five years later, after Darren had retired from the NFL, they teamed up for the first time as a coaching duo, working with sprinters on the Kearny High track team.
"It was a great time," said Darren, a marriage and family pastor at The Rock Church in Point Loma. "Any time you can give back to younger people, it's a blessing. And it's always more than sports. It's about life. Us being able to share the things we learned, experiences and challenges we've overcome, we give them tips to put into their repertoire when they face challenges."
Vickie went on to coach junior high sports, including basketball, at Maranatha Christian Schools.
"I loved it a lot," she said. "Maybe two years into that, I was like, 'I really want to coach older kids.' We had a middle school program, but I wanted to be around high school kids, just for the ministry reasons."
That led to a job at Horizon, which at the time was struggling on the court.
"I remember them having three wins and 19 losses, and one win and 22 losses," Vickie said, "and that always broke my heart. I knew they always had good athletes, but they didn't always have that competitive nature."

Fly-drive gives you the freedom to explore Spain at your own pace by car. Let us to propose you a plenty of itinerarues. Tell us what you need and we will provide you an itinerary in detail.
Sample of routes
Spain is a country of passion, excitement and enthusiasm. Madrid, the magnificent capital, Barcelona, Valencia and Seville are effervescent cosmopolitan cities with some of the best museums and galleries in Europe.
Costa-style resorts take much of the coast up although cities such as Alicante, Marbella, Malaga and Mallorca's Palma retain their charm. And everywhere you can find secret hideaways with empty beaches.
The best way to explore rural Spain is to visit Galicia and Asturias, the arid villages of Andalucia and the peaks of the Sierra Nevada and the Pyrenees.
Spain is a treasure chest of unforgettable scenery, breathtaking views, winding rivers, lush green forests and ancient architecture.

The object of the game Fate of the World is to stop global warming, but don't get your hopes up: you might just give koalas chlamydia instead
THE planet is doomed. At least, that's what I've come to believe since playing a video game called Fate of the World. The object of the game is to prevent global warming and "reach the year 2120 with hope still intact". I failed miserably at every turn.
The game, developed by Red Redemption in Oxford, UK, is one of a growing list of games aimed at players with a social conscience. The company develops games that are "focused on real-world and non-violent themes" and are "rewarding: you make discoveries while you play".
I certainly did make discoveries. For instance, I discovered that, no matter what policy choices we make, the world is going to hell in a ...

1759, from rustle (v.).

What Rejuvenate Plus™ Can Mean For Your Dog
Does your dog have any of these symptoms?
- Stiffness after sleeping
- Pain descending stairs
- Reduced energy
- Loss of mobility
Try Rejuvenate Plus™ Today!
Watch a video of Rupert the Labradoodle
play after taking Rejuvenate Plus™.
Read his success story >>
Find out why Rejuvenate Plus™ may be right for your dog
Creatine ethyl ester (Rejuvenate Plus™) was invented by a team of research pharmacologists as a safe and more effective way to deliver creatine to muscle, joint and other tissues. Creatine is an amino acid and has been used as a dietary supplement in humans for decades. The major drawback with standard creatine dietary supplements is poor absorption from the gastro-intestinal (GI) tract. As a result, relatively large amounts (5-20gram daily doses) of creatine are required to achieve the levels of creatine required in the cells and these doses often result in GI bloating and discomfort. That is, until Dr. Donald Miller and colleagues invented a new formulation, creatine ethyl ester, that is easily absorbed by most canines.
Why is creatine (Rejuvenate Plus™) important?
Creatine ethyl ester is a synthetic copy of a natural amino acid. Creatine [natural or synthetic] acts as a catalyst that is required to start the body's own natural repair mechanisms. All soft tissue cells in the muscles and joints need high levels of cellular Creatine to help prevent injury as well as start any required repair work. The daily consumption of creatine ethyl ester helps maintain and restore cellular creatine levels resulting in a reduction of inflammation and pain relief plus rejuvenation of the cell itself.
What types of injury can respond to creatine (Rejuvenate Plus™)?
Soft tissue (i.e. muscle and joint) cells that you want to repair may be damaged from a variety of causes including the natural aging process, arthritis, higher than normal exercise levels or breed specific joint problems. Rejuvenate Plus™ can also be used to repair muscle and joint when your canine is recovering fro surgery or to aid in athletic performance like sled dog racing. You should see results in 5 to 7 days but in some cases it may take longer.
Proven Safe and Effective in ongoing clinical trials
In a continuing trial in Omaha, Nebraska, dogs with a range of joint and soft tissue injuries are being dosed with Rejuvenate Plus™, over 75% of the owners report that their dogs had regained mobility and are no longer exhibiting signs of distress while exercising.

Deparaffinization, tissue incubation over night in 85 % ethanol
Hi all!
I have a question about the deparaffinization procedure of FFPE tissue. Our lab assistant did the deparaffinization as followed:
- Paraffin melting in the oven (55 ˚C)
- Addition of Xylene, removal of Xylene/ paraffin
- Incubation in Xylene for 30 min
- Incubation in 100 % Ethanol for 30 min
- Incubation in 100 % Ethanol for 30 min
- Incubation in 95 % Ethanol for 30 min
Then, he added 85 % Ethanol and forgot the samples so that they were sitting in 85 % Ethanol overnight at room temperature.
So, what do you think, is the tissue still usable or should I start over again? My aim is not to do histological staining but to extract proteins from the tissue.
Thanks for your help!

Returning user / deleted archive
Hi folks
The problem that exists is that a user left the company and their AD account was disabled. They were in Enterprise Vault. Now the user is back and their account has been re-enabled, however, the normal process for enabling the account does not work as their mailbox is not listed in the new mailboxes list, nor as a disabled mailbox. A colleague PST'd the vault and deleted it, thinking this will restart the whole process. The user account has still not appeared.
Any ideas?
Many thanks
