The world road race cycling championships click into gear in Stuttgart on Wednesday amid potential controversy following another scandal-hit season in the peloton.
Cycling is still recovering from the fall-out of this summer's Tour de France which was marked by doping controversies as three riders and two teams withdrew from the race following positive doping tests. The biggest name to fail a drugs test was pre-race favourite Alexandre Vinokourov, forcing his Astana team to promptly withdraw and the Stuttgart organisers are desperate to avoid any similar scenes.
But this world championships has already courted controversy when last year's silver medallist, Erik Zabel, was selected despite organisers insisting he was not welcome. Zabel's inclusion comes despite his confession in May to having "briefly" used the banned blood-booster erythropoietin in 1996, when he won the first of his six points competition, whose prize is the green jersey, at the Tour de France.
Despite his offence occurring over a decade ago, Dieter Kuehnle, vice-president of the German Cycling Federation (BDR), resigned in protest at Zabel's inclusion while Susanne Eisenmann, the president of the event's organising committee, was firm in her stance.
"We are completely unsatisfied with the decision to include Zabel," she said at the time. "We must wonder about the integrity of this decision at a time when we talk about a new start for professional cycling."
Amongst the favourites in the elite men's road race are Australian Cadel Evans, who finished second in this year's Tour de France, while last year's gold medalist Paolo Bettini is back to defend his title.
The course for Sunday's elite men's race is 14 laps of the circuit totalling 267.4kilometres and has two key demanding ascents.
The men's Under-23 Time Trial takes place on Wednesday, the same day as the women's elite time trial. On Thursday, there is the elite men's time trial. With a rest day on Friday, the women's elite road race takes place on Saturday morning, with the men's Under-23 race in the afternoon.
The elite men's road race, whose prize is the rainbow jersey - second only to the Tour de France's yellow jersey in the prestige stakes - takes place on Sunday.

Scientists and the History of Science: An Alternative View April 25, 2015Posted by Will Thomas in Uncategorized.

In my last post, I took issue with the idea that when scientists write history, they are possessed of a need to idealize science, and thereby secure its intellectual and social authority. The burden of this post, therefore, is to develop a framework that accounts for the ways that scientists do write history, and the ways they can contribute to the historiography of science, without supposing they are possessed of such a need, or that they need, in general, to be disabused of their ideas.
Scientists as Historians and Critical Intellects
The first thing we might note is that the basic idea that we require more realistic portraits of science did not originate in the work of critical outsiders. In the 1960s it was commonly associated with scientists such as Peter Medawar (1915–1987) and John Ziman (1925–2005), and did not, to my knowledge, raise much pique.
Moreover, many historians of science were scientists who migrated into history. An outstanding and well-known example is Martin Rudwick, a geologist by training. His Great Devonian Controversy (1985) was widely considered a crucial document of an era of newly nuanced portraits of scientific development. Yet, in more recent years, Rudwick has written, in large part, with a scientific audience in mind, and has been more critical of historians for their neglect of the course of scientific claims and arguments. I think scientists such as Rudwick can prove, at least in certain respects, to be more sensitive historians than trained historians, provided they are well-read in existing historical research. But, of course, the more general point is that a historiography is simply well served by enrolling people with a diversity of training and experience.
Scientists and the History of Science: The Shapin View April 15, 2015Posted by Will Thomas in Uncategorized.

6 comments
This post incorporates some general impressions I've developed over the last several years, but is most immediately motivated by Steven Shapin's negative Wall Street Journal review* of physicist Steven Weinberg's new book To Explain the World. I'd like, though, to make clear at the outset that this post isn't really concerned with whether or not Shapin's review did justice to Weinberg, specifically. I'm not especially interested in Weinberg's views, and they are not something that worries or perturbs me. Shapin's review is of interest here because it is written in a tradition that does see in histories such as Weinberg's the operation of larger forces that should be a cause for concern.
A much earlier work in this tradition was the 1968 book Science in Modern Society, written by the Marxist science journalist J. G. Crowther (1899–1983). In it, Crowther criticized a trend he saw in academic scholarship toward a "disembodied history of scientific ideas." In his view, science could only be governed to serve the best benefit of society if the unvarnished history of the "social relations of science" was understood. Crowther believed that narrowly intellectualized history concealed those relations, and thus constituted "a long-range natural protective action, by dominant interests that do not wish to have the social and political implications of their scientific policy comprehensively investigated."
Comparatively, Shapin plays down the dangers of improper history, but inherits Crowther's perspective insofar as he regards macroscopic forces as responsible for such history. In Shapin's view, the shortcomings of Weinberg's specific history, as well as Weinberg's concentration on what he regards as powerful about science, are, depressingly, simply what is to be expected when a scientist—any scientist—attempts to write the history of science.

add a comment
In my previous post on the 19th century political economist Henry C. Carey I underscored some of his methodological suppositions (his Newtonianism, his Baconianism and his dependence upon William Whewell). I made two further points: first, that Carey's system-building and his emphasis on man and nature being under the rule of law was typically of social theory penned during the nineteenth century. One finds the same flavor of contention in the work of John William Draper and Henry Buckle, where both authors attempted to bring diverse sorts of information ranging from facts concerning the course of civilization to the laws and regularities of human psychology under one kind of generality, where facts and the laws which they illustrated were exemplars of a well-ordered universe. This is more or less the purpose too of later sociological reasoning.
Depending upon the writer involved, this mammoth reductionism and systems-building, with its consequent determinism, was to differing degrees rhetorical, heuristic, deadly serious, and inconsistent. As importantly, these efforts at system-building and reduction often obscures digressions and departures which form intriguing sub-arguments and sub-systems.
Joseph Agassi on Rationality and Psychiatry April 4, 2015Posted by Christopher Donohue in Agassi and the 20th century.

After a highly stimulating (successful?, entertaining?) talk for the members of Zilsel and le séminaire de sociologie des sciences (SoS) at Laboratoire Printemps, CNRS-UVSQ, which included an all-departmental search for my memory stick, I wanted to expand on a few points and point out some new directions. Arnaud made the observation that much of Agassi's language is permeated with the language of psychiatry. Although the quote concerning sadism and masochism concerns Lakatos and Feyerabend and is not an invocation of Agassi (unfortunately), Agassi spent much of the 1970s and early 1980s examining psychology, medical diagnosis, and the brain sciences.
Why the interest in psychiatry? Very simply, Agassi's engagement with psychiatric matters was key to his understanding of human beings as not-quite-rational; psychiatry pointed to the pitfalls of assuming too much rationality; men were conditioned by their environments; they had beliefs and they made mistakes. Agassi wrote a great deal on psychiatry at the exact moment when he was formulating the bulk of his philosophical anthropology. Thus, any discussion his writings on psychology is an account of his philosophical anthropology.
This is not an obvious choice for a prominent student of Popper and a post-Second World War philosopher of science. Psychiatry in all of its variants was labeled frequently by philosophers of science as a pseudo-science. Of course there have always been problems with any of these diagnoses. In the 1960s and 1970s, psychiatry in its Freudian and non-Freudian variants was under attack by both behaviorism and anti-psychiatry. The former underscored that man was simply a product of environmental conditioning- he was no active agent; the latter, that mental illness was merely a way for society to impose conformity. The schizophrenic was simply a non-conformist whose behavior was "deviant" only due to a society interested solely in the imposition of its norms. For those who know Agassi, both behaviorism and anti-psychiatry are absurd forms of "monism," which in its most extreme forms (perhaps not, perhaps all monisms are like this) is a "take-it-or-leave-it" attitude.

My previous posts on Joseph "Joske" Agassi are here and here.
I was very disappointed when the parties responsible for this utterance were not, as I recalled, Joseph Agassi and Paul Feyerabend. This utterance is found in the correspondence between Feyerabend and Imre Lakatos, where Feyerabend is grousing about Kuhn and a few other things, but it is mostly about scientists being honest about who they are and what they actually do, instead of pretending. Lakatos, before his early, tragic death in 1974, was one of the most important historians of physics and mathematics to emerge after the Second World War and a top-rate philosopher of science.
Agassi believed Lakatos a bully who actively tried to sabotage him (also here) and an unparalleled operator, whom in Agassi's felicitous phrasing "was burning day-and-night with the ambition to control." (A Philosopher's Apprentice: In Karl Popper's Workshop, pg. 281) I do not think that Agassi does justice to Lakatos (although his critiques are provocative). Agassi is better on Lakatos' pedagogy than his history of mathematics (I am not a historian of mathematics, but I am very interested in pedagogy). I have no idea if Agassi's following statement on Lakatos' teaching is valid: "Lakatos' classical 'Proofs and Refutations' reports the ongoings in a classroom in Utopia." But it is interesting; it is provocative; and it is Agassi's mind wandering in a funny way. Agassi's humor and his mind wandering are important things to keep in mind.
Feyerabend is known for his relativism and his methodological anarchism. His historical studies are exquisite and sometimes obscure. I most enjoy him on Galileo. Although Feyerabend abuses the existence of "scientific method", he is most likely inveighing against "the scientific method" as synonymous with knowledge and a "rationalism first" perspective He is not the worst enemy of science, as my one-time teacher Peter Achinstein put it to me. Agassi knew this; Feyerabend agreed with Agassi that Feyerabend was a brilliant philosopher.
"Toleration is obligatory, not criticism": Joseph Agassi on Criticism and Pluralism March 15, 2015Posted by Christopher Donohue in Agassi and the 20th century.
Tags: Joseph Agassi, Paul Feyerabend, Thomas Kuhn
add a comment
In the previous post on Agassi, I began to answer two questions: what are Agassi's core positions as a philosopher of science? My answer: the necessity of criticism, or at least an openness to criticism; the history of science as the history of its promotion of criticism or of its suppression; rationality as criticism; pluralism as the embodiment of this respect for criticism. Second, why is Agassi no longer read as much? Part of this answer is his "bad manners". Part of this answer is Agassi's unique writing style, which editors almost immediately had to apologize for. I add now that part of the answer too has to do with his geographic position within the profession. He is very much an Israeli philosopher of science. This provides a certain kind of community, but also a certain kind of marginal status.
Israeli academia is intertwined with Israeli politics (as I am quickly learning), which produces literary particularities which obscure persistent generalities (Agassi's liberal nationalism is inseparable from his defense of rationality, one is also not prior or foundational to the the other, they are interconnected.) Part of the answer also is the degree to which Agassi does not care about Bruno Latour (nor should he.) He does not bother with STS (should he?). Neither are existential threats to Agassi. Wittgenstein and Feyerabend are. So was anti-psychiatry, although I wonder why he does not still care about neo-Darwinism, which is now more alive than ever.
Agassi's philosophy is also rooted in reactions to post-war ideas. This makes extracting his present usefulness difficult. However, he gives one of the best defenses of rationalism against relativism (here, I show my cards a bit.) His stance is appreciated against the recent revival of pluralism. Pluralism can not be the suspension of criticism or of the suspension of judgment. The recent revival of pluralism appears to be the suspension of judgment in order to remain polite. It is a doge. I say more on this below. I also untangle and amply these strands within Agassi's thought for the remainder of this post.

Joseph Agassi, the one-time anointed successor of the philosopher of science Karl Popper, still writes a book a year and an article perhaps once every few months. In the 1970s and 1980s, Agassi was considered to be one of the premier historians and philosophers of science. His works such as
- Faraday as a Natural Philosopher, 1971
- Science in Flux (Boston Studies in the Philosophy of Science, Vol. 28), 1975
- Paranoia: A Study in Diagnosis (Boston Studies in the Philosophy of Science Vol. 50), 1976
- Towards a Rational Philosophical Anthropology, 1977
- Science and Society: Studies in the Sociology of Science, (Boston Studies in the Philosophy of Science, Vol. 65), 1981
- Technology: Philosophical and Social Aspects,1985
- and his essay collection, published in 1988, The Gentle Art of Philosophical Polemics
encapsulate the core of his philosophical and social perspective.
All of these works were debated and reviewed extensively, oftentimes by infuriated and bewildered commentators. Now, many of his most recent books, such as Popper and his Popular Critics: Thomas Kuhn, Paul Feyerabend, Imre Lakatos, published last year, are barely reviewed at all. Agassi has become a bit of a niche writer. This is remarkable given the attention he received twenty-five years ago and unfortunate given the power and cogency of many of his ideas.

The specter of rationalism haunts the historiographies of the Cold War-era social sciences, of mid-twentieth-century policy analysis, and, particularly, of the RAND Corporation. The basic idea is that there existed after World War II a belief that scientific method, new technology, logical analysis, and quantitative measurement could be used to find solutions to difficult problems of national policy. While it is generally taken that this belief was widespread within institutions of elite learning, it is regarded as having been particularly concentrated at RAND. And, as a prominent military contractor, RAND is taken to have been a crucial vector for the transmission of this rationalism from the realm of ideas into the corridors of American power.
One compelling illustration of this rationalism has been the opening address given by mathematician Warren Weaver, director of the natural sciences programs at the influential Rockefeller Foundation, at a September 1947 conference sponsored by RAND to recruit social scientists. In his address, Weaver remarked on his belief that the people at the conference were all united in their commitment to what he called "the rational life."
Journalist Fred Kaplan was the first to quote this line in his 1983 book on American nuclear strategic thought, The Wizards of Armageddon:
Rational Action: The Blog March 7, 2015Posted by Will Thomas in Uncategorized.

We're about a month away from the debut of my book, Rational Action: The Sciences of Policy in Britain and America, 1940–1960. Anyone who has written an academic book knows that this is a very exciting thing for the author, because publishing the book can be almost as long and arduous a process as researching and writing the thing. So, I'm going to be talking about the twentieth century a lot more here.
However, I've also created a new Rational Action blog, which will both expand on things found in my book, as well as develop the discussion well beyond the history of the specific fields I concentrate on in the book. My hope is that, by focusing on the historical problem of rationality, as manifested in both theory and practice, I can attract a cross-disciplinary audience interested in everything from optimization algorithms to philosophy of mind. The object will be to create a space where we can do free-form explorations of the affinities between such topics without conflating them into a single "contested history of rationality," as seems to be the historiographical fashion these days.
I think it will be more useful to create a separate blog, rather than a new post series here, because I don't want the historiographical excursions that I favor here to alienate readers interested solely in the new blog's focus. I anticipate there will be some cross-posting, or possibly even two different versions of the same post appearing in each location. In fact, there are a number of archived posts here that I already want to adapt to the new forum.
So, please check out the new blog, and follow me on Twitter to know when I put up a new post either there or here. Also, for American customers, Amazon is offering a discount on pre-orders of my reasonably-priced-but-not-altogether-inexpensive book, and the size of the discount appears to be diminishing as we get closer to release—just saying.
The Culture of Mechanism: Margaret Jacob versus "Proto-Industrialization" February 20, 2015Posted by Will Thomas in Uncategorized.

Margaret Jacob's emphasis on "scientific education" as an essential element of industrialization is best understood in view of her ongoing effort to stem the tide of portraits of industrialization that she characterizes as "mechanistic." Such portraits, she claims, rely exclusively on "economic and social history" to identify certain "factors" as prerequisites of industrialization, which was a process that then developed more or less spontaneously.
Many of the factors comprising the portraits she opposes will be familiar to those who have taken a Western Civ course: regional population pressures, falling family income, labor availability, resource availability (notably coal), the commercialization of agriculture, access to remote markets, and innovations in socio-economic organization (notably the "putting-out system"). In such contexts, the important machines were mainly scientifically unsophisticated devices devised by artisan "tinkerers," including such famous inventions as the flying shuttle and spinning jenny.
While such historiography of industrialization was venerable, it flourished within an influential theoretical framework provided by Franklin Mendels (1943–1988) in his article, "Proto-industrialization: The First Phase of the Industrialization Process," Journal of Economic History 32 (1972): 241–261. In The Cultural Meaning of the Scientific Revolution (1988), Jacob points us to "Proto-Industrialization: A Concept Too Many," Economic History Review 36 (1983): 435–448, an oft-cited polemical review by D. C. Coleman (1920–1995), covering the concept's quick proliferation [ngram].

There's always the possibility that Aaron Rodgers' Twitter account has been "hacked," but if not, the Packers' quarterback is starting his offseason by tweeting some bizarre thoughts. Rodgers and the Packers were knocked out of the playoffs last week by the 49ers, but he was busy this Saturday night tweeting about cowboys. I think somebody should come up with a way to breed a very large shrimp......— Aaron Rodgers (@AaronRodgers12) January 20, 2013 ....That way, you could ride him, then after you camped at night, you could eat him. How about it, science?— Aaron Rodgers (@AaronRodgers12) January 20, 2013 You can't tell me that cowboys, when they're branding cattle.....— Aaron Rodgers (@AaronRodgers12) January 20, 2013 ....don't sort of "accidentally" brand each other every once in a while. It's their way of letting off stress.— Aaron Rodgers (@AaronRodgers12) January 20, 2013 Before Saturday, Rodgers hadn't tweeted since Aug. 6. He announced his return to twitter, and then answered some fan questions earlier in the day. Good to be back with all of you in Twitter land! Thanks to all of our amazing Packer Fans for your continued support this year, we love you!— Aaron Rodgers (@AaronRodgers12) January 19, 2013 We'll wait and see if the tweets get deleted or if Rodgers cries "hacked." But if not, it may be worth adding the quarterback to your Twitter feed if he stays this entertaining.

Re: ENTERPRISE on Blu-Ray OFFICIAL Discussion Thread
So I finally bought the box set and watched the first few episodes last weekend. So far, I can't really say that it was worth the money. The picture quality seems to be only marginally better than on the DVDs.
One episodes (I think it was "Unexpected") even had a music cue slightly cut during a transition from one scene to the other, while it was perfectly fine on the DVD. That's annoying! Good thing I still have my DVD box sets!

Report: Red Sox Working Toward Contract Agreement With Mike Napoli, 'Hopeful' Deal Will Get Done
Originally written on NESN.com | Last updated 1/8/13
Mike Napoli still hasn't tossed on a Red Sox jersey for the first time, but it doesn't mean he won't be doing so before long. According to The Boston Globe's Peter Abraham, the Sox are working toward a contract agreement with Napoli, and they are "hopeful" that a deal will get done. Napoli reportedly agreed to terms on a three-year, $39 million contract back on Dec. 3, but the club has yet to announce the deal, reportedly because of an issue that came up during the veteran's physical. Reports indicate that the issue is related to a preexisting hip injury, and that the Red Sox have thus been seeking to make changes to the original deal that was in place. General manager Ben Cherington and Co. have been rather mum on the topic of Napoli, but all indications are that the Red Sox are still very much interested in signing the 31-year-old to be their everyday first baseman in 2013. Abraham reports that Napoli is not believed to have negotiated with other teams during the lengthy delay in finalizing a deal, and the Red Sox continue to be focused on signing Napoli despite not closing the door on other options. Among those other players believed to have drawn interest from the Red Sox is first baseman Adam LaRoche, although signing him would require Boston to surrender a second-round draft pick in addition to making a serious financial commitment.

: I now have two jack russell's. the male is 12 and the female is 2 years old. i'd like to get a third, and i want to know if you have a suggestion as to gender and age of a third dog?
Because of the same-sex aggression and the "two's company, three's a crowd" issues, bringing in a third JRT will be difficult...if not impossible. A female will likely challenge your female and a male will likely challenge your male. If you get a pup, your two young terriers may be inclined to gang up on your senior terrier. Adopting an older terrier who has perhaps gotten along with another same-sex JRT does not guarantee that he/she will get along with your two terriers.
I understand your wanting to get another JRT but in my opinion, your 12 year old male should be able to live the rest of his life with your family without having to "fight" for his right to do so. :-)

Has anyone tried BioGaia? I tried it twice and noticed a reaction both times. I hope it was the drops and not a food I introduced. I have read reviews that says they contain trace amounts of dairy. My bottle did not mention this.

Reaction here too. :( called the company and they said absolutely no dairy or soy but something is fishy. I've read tons of posts similar to your after I started researching it.

Encourage your hopes, not your fears.

We didn't have a problem with the biogaia, but the price was horrible. I went to our local whole foods and got the jarrow brand of infant probiotics. You have to mix it, but it works so much better than the biogaia. My LO would never burp now he belches on his own.

I have researched probiotics with infants and these symptoms can happen while the gut is getting adjusted. I too stopped giving it to my baby girl until I started reading more reviews on it and what probiotics overall can do. They are wonderful for humans and babies and very benficial for babies with colic or reflux. These have helped my baby alot. I would say give it a week if you can deal with the symptoms, it is the belly getting used to all of the good bacteria. Good luck!!!

As you browse our pages, you will gain an understanding of who we are, what we are about, and where we are going. What you won't gain is a solid grasp of who we are as people, who we are as riders, and who we are as members of this outstanding organization, Top Cats - Illinois. Let me explain.....
Originally, Top Cats – Illinois was formed by a group of motorcycle enthusiasts who were business men and women. Their purpose was to enjoy business networking and the sport of motorcycling. Over the past decade and a half, Top Cats has evolved into a first – class group of motorcycle enthusiasts who enjoy conservative and safe riding, socializing, networking, and community involvement.
Today, any visitor to a Top Cat meeting, or a Top Cat event, will quickly realize that our group is one that easily welcomes newcomers, embraces safe riding, and provides opportunities for great riding adventures in a safe environment.
As people, our members are business owners, executives, and entrepreneurs (Top Cats) who are riders, co-riders, or non-riders. All, however, are motorcycle enthusiasts. And...they all have three important ideals in common; business networking, safe motorcycling, and community involvement.
One Simple Safety Gear That Can Save Your Life
By Michael Motorcycle
This article will broach a subject which sometimes can be a contentious one in the motorcycle community. Included in this article will be conclusions from national studies and data used for major claims from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration which has some alarming facts they support from these studies. All leading to the merits, benefits and safety results from wearing one piece of motorcycle gear specifically designed for your safety while riding. Riders believe in the freedom to choose this gear and I support that right. But there is overwhelming evidence that indicates you are safer riding your motorcycle when wearing this gear.
What would you say if I told you that this one piece of safety gear could reduce your risk of dying in a motorcycle accident by 29 percent? Riders who don't wear this gear are 40% more likely to sustain a fatal head injury than those that do. Food for thought when you consider that per mile driven, a motorcyclist is 16 times more likely than an automobile driver to die in an accident.

Our economists engage in scholarly research and policy-oriented analysis on a wide range of important issues.
The Outreach and Education function engages, empowers and educates the Second District communities that the Bank serves, especially civic leaders, students, educators, small business owners, policymakers and the general public. It furthers the Bank's commitment to the region by listening to the communities we serve and leveraging our unique attributes to positively impact school and university programs, as well as analysis and research.
Authors: Nicola Cetorelli and Linda S. Goldberg
Global banks played a significant role in transmitting the 2007-09 financial crisis to emerging-market economies. We examine adverse liquidity shocks on main developed-country banking systems and their relationships to emerging markets across Europe, Asia, and Latin America, isolating loan supply from loan demand effects. Loan supply in emerging markets across Europe, Asia, and Latin America was affected significantly through three separate channels: 1) a contraction in direct, cross-border lending by foreign banks; 2) a contraction in local lending by foreign banks' affiliates in emerging markets; and 3) a contraction in loan supply by domestic banks, resulting from the funding shock to their balance sheets induced by the decline in interbank, cross-border lending. Policy interventions, such as the Vienna Initiative introduced in Europe, influenced the lending-channel effects on emerging markets of shocks to head-office balance sheets.

Shanghai Finance University
Founded in 1952, Shanghai Finance University (SFU) with more than 60 years' history is a full-time public academic institution, which focuses on training talents in finance and economic management. In 2000, instead of being affiliated to the People's Bank of China, SFU was subject to the dual administration of the Shanghai Municipal Government and the People's Bank of China (the Central Bank of China) with the former taking the main role. At present, SFU has formed a distinctive structure with finance as the core subject and economics and management as key subjects while supported by other subjects. SFU is the first and the only university that is named after finance in the Yangtze River Delta. Over the past 60 plus years, SFU has trained a large number of financial talents, many of whom have become senior financial executives. Thus, SFU is praised as a "Cradle of Future Financial Experts".
The main campus of SFU is located at No. 995, Shangchuan Road, Pudong New District. It has an occupied area of more than 450,000 square meters and a constructive area of 250,000 square meters. The university has its cultural and physical facilities, like Fencing Center, Painting and Calligraphy Museum, and Modern Coins Museum; experimental institutions, like the Simulation Bank, Simulation Insurance Company, and Simulation Stock Exchange Company, as well as Moot Court, Moot Arbitral Tribunal and Undergraduates Innovation and Entrepreneurship Zone. At present, there are more than 8,000 full-time students, over 600 international students and more than 3000 students of adult education at SFU. Also, the university provides professional finance training close to 50,000 persons annually.
The university focuses on fostering "Academically Advanced, Application-Based, and Internationally-Oriented" faculty members. SFU has 685 faculty members, among whom 445 are full-time teachers. Among the full-time teachers, 226 have senior professional titles, almost one third have overseas academic experience, and nearly one fourth have teaching experience or background in industry.
SFU has 13 teaching faculties, which are the School of International Finance, School of International Economics and Trade, School of Accounting, School of Insurance, School of Finance and Public Administration, School of Business Administration, School of Information Management, Department of Applied Mathematics, Department of Foreign Languages, Department of Law, Department of Humanities and Arts, Department of Social Sciences and Department of Physical Education. Additionally, it has 4 professional schools - the Sino-Danish College, School of International Exchange, School of Innovation and Entrepreneurship and School of Continuing Education - which focus on international exchange and cooperation, international students' education, innovation and entrepreneurial education, continuing education, and vocational education and training.
The university offers 25 undergraduate programs, such as Finance, Insurance, Accounting and International Trade, and 4 diploma programs, such as Marketing and Art Design. All of these majors cover seven academic fields, including Economics, Law, Literature, Science, Engineering, Management, and Arts. At present, SFU has two national level featured majors of Finance and Accounting; and three Shanghai municipal-level featured majors, such as Public Finance. Meanwhile, SFU has built about 20 extractive courses both at national level and the Shanghai municipal-level. There are three Shanghai municipal-level outstanding teaching teams (they are International Finance, Financial Planning, and Public Finance), and one Shanghai municipal level undergraduate innovation and entrepreneurship demonstration base. With ICBC, the cooperation base that SFU built was named as a national level industry-university-research base.
SFU has adopted a global vision to run the university. It has established a cooperative relationship with more than 30 universities and institutions in different regions and foreign countries, such as Denmark, the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Australia, Finland, Switzerland, Japan, Vietnam, Kenya, Hungry, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Macao. Nowadays, SFU has 25 Sino-foreign exchange programs, 2 Sino-foreign cooperative educational programs, with more than 600 enrolled students of these programs. There are 4 majors taught in English, which are International Finance, International Accounting, International Economics and Trade and International Business Management. The number of international students has reached over 600. In addition, SFU has overseas teaching bases in Japan, Korea, Kenya and Vietnam, and runs 2+2 dual degree programs in Kenya and Vietnam.
The university is also research focused. It has set up several research institutions with emphases on policy-making consulting and applied academic research for the international financial center construction program of Shanghai City and higher educational practice. The research institutions are Sci-Tech Finance Institute of Shanghai, International Finance Research Institute, China (Shanghai) Pilot Free Trade Zone Research Institute and Higher Education Research Institute. Collaborating with the Shanghai Municipal Government, SFU has also built up the research base of Shanghai International Finance Center Construction, which has become a think tank of the local government.
SFU has a strong atmosphere in arts, sports and culture. Fencing is the featured sport of the university, and the SFU fencing team has achieved impressive results in different kinds of international competitions and won gold and silver medals for the glory of the nation. With SFU's traditional Calligraphy, the university has become the only calligraphy training base among universities and colleges in Shanghai.
Under the university motto "Display honesty and cultivate virtue, foster ambition and contribute to society", and following the strategy of "Industry-driven, global oriented and technology-based strategy", SFU is playing its role in the national strategy of building Shanghai into an international financial center.

San Diego based food and restaurant review group. Documenting all types of food, events, and recipes.
Three more weeks until the Taste of Old Town! This event, previously known as Tequila Trail, used to be a part of the Spirit of Mexico festival, but despite becoming its own event, will still showcase plenty of tequila for its fans! Oh-So Yummy attended the past two years and has recaps for both Tequila Trail 2013 and Tequila Trail 2012.
This year's Taste of Old Town will be held on Thursday Sept. 18, 2014 from 6pm to 9pm. Enjoy food and tequila tasting samples from sixteen of the participating restaurants in Old Town.
Another book club dinner post! Yay to books and bites! For July, the girls met at Urban Plates, a farm fresh restaurant located in the huge shopping/dining plaza off El Camino Real and Del Mar Heights. You move through cafeteria style, pick out your main plate, salad, sandwich, etc then select from an eye-catching medley of hot and cold sides. As a heads up, there are two lines, one for salads and one for other dishes so make sure you go in the correct one, especially if it's shorter! Payment is made at the end before you seat yourself.
The urban plates ($10) come with a choice of meat and two sides or four sides with no meat. I ordered the medium rare Grilled Steak Plate on a previous visit. The beef strips looked gorgeous but weren't as tender or flavorful as some other places. It was accompanied with simple rectangular bread and I was curious if I would have liked it better as a sandwich. I picked lightly sauted brussel sprouts and an interesting mushroom squash medley for my sides.

An Italian restaurant called Cucina Basilico opened within the last couple of months in the Serra Mesa area. I had been eyeing it as a dine-in alternative to our favorite take-out deli, Mangia Mangia and grabbed two coworkers for a trial lunch run.
The restaurant is cozy in size and provides booths, tables and bar seating. The left side was darker than the right side due to a single large window next to the entrance. I didn't realize this until uploading pictures but the right wall looks unfinished! Or that's some kind of wacky decorating style.
Our waiter promptly provided us menus and explained the restaurant concept: for pasta dishes, you pick one of their three homemade pastas (selection changes daily) and you choose the sauce, which is where the prices varied. For example, that day we had a choice between gnocchi, fettuccine and one other I couldn't quite catch.
After placing our orders, the waiter brought out some complimentary appetizer bread accompanied by vinegar and oil to dip it in. This bread was fluffy and simple in taste and the sweeter basalmic was great with it.
For my entree, I ordered the Gnocchi with Pesto Sauce ($8.55).
I've been meaning to visit Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ with Dennis and we finally made it there this week. Our friend David joined us for dinner to check out the Monday all day happy hour. It was busy at 8pm and I provided my cell to be texted when a table opened up (estimated 45 minutes). To pass time we strolled through the nearby Trader Joe's. I've been thinking of late... wouldn't it be awesome if Oh-SoYummy had our own minion (similar to This Tasty Life) I looked at our friend David curiously… but no, he preferred "consultant"!
20-25 minutes later, we checked back at the restaurant and a table was available within a few minutes. After sitting down, I pointed everyone toward the containers of dipping sauces, consisting of sweet soy, spicy, and ponzu. We prepared our sauces but noted the thicker sweet soy required more *shakes* to get it out! The sign behind the sauces showed that a membership card costs $1, and each $250 you spent earned $25 off your next bill – essentially a 10% 'earnings' ... not too bad of an investment.
The grills here were round and a little smaller than some of the other restaurants I've been to. The grates are smaller too so food wouldn't drop through the holes as easily! We were hungry and ready to order meat! In fact, there was a whole menu dedicated to the happy hour items, 4 pages worth!
The first item to arrive was our order of Harami Skirt Steak ($8.50), accompanied by the instructions of "30-45 seconds per side." They told us cooking times for all the meats, which was very helpful! They definitely did not do that at Tsuruhashi!
We were recently invited to dine at the new Richard Walker's Pancake House in La Jolla. Instead of our usual sleep-in weekend mornings, we were out of bed early to beat the crowds. Hello 8AM breakfast! And as they say, the early bird gets the worm - we scored parking right around the corner and didn't have to wait to be seated. The outdoor patio area was uncrowded and perfect for us to enjoy a breath of fresh and early morning air.
There were plenty of options including omelettes and pancakes but I wanted an eggs benedict. The menu here offered two versions but the canadian bacon won over the turkey patty version. Sometimes I'm left hungry after this dish but the English muffins were generous (used to be smaller from what I heard) with toppings sized to match!
A couple of years ago, Dennis and I ate at Saigon on Fifth with some friends and enjoyed not one, but THREE delicious sea bass dishes, all differently prepared! We had been meaning to revisit and after a tasty sample during Taste of Hillcrest 2014 and some birthday celebrations, we finally made it back!
The first birthday was for Dennis (a few months ago). The first entree was the 360 Beef, moist morsels of cubed beef. It reminded me of the beef dish we had at Pho Ban Mai, but less oily and at a slightly higher price. They were accented with crispy fried onions and plated on lettuce with rice on the side. The meat was all gone before long.
The second entree was the Creamy Basil Fish, which is the full size dish of the sampler from Taste of Hillcrest. We chose the sea bass version over the salmon when given the choice by our waiter. The fish was fall apart tender and satisfying with the flavorful curry sauce. The rice was put to good use to soak up every last bite of the yummy sauce!
Dennis and I were invited to try out Solare Ristorante for a taste of Southern Italy. We rarely dine in Point Loma area so thought it was the perfect opportunity to do so!
For starters, we were brought Focaccia bread which was fluffy and adorned with tasty heirloom tomatoes. Olive oil with oregano and sea salt was served on the side. If you're a big dipper like Dennis, you'll pick up a heavier dose of salt if you hit the bottom. We loved this!
We selected the Pere & Gorgonzola Salad which was split in two (one half is pictured). The salad had slightly crisp bartlett pears, candied walnuts, stronger gorgonzola cheese and a sweeter balsalmic reduction glaze. I appreciated the balanced composition of this salad and would totally order it again.

Opera greats such as Mario Del Monaco, Beniamino Gigli and Franco Corelli set a high standard for Bocelli, fueling his musical passion and increasing the intensity with which he pursued his dreams. In albums such as "Romanza," "Songo" and "Andrea," Bocelli brought his boyhood dreams of becoming a world-renowned singer to life.

Lawyers for the Barcelona striker travelled to the CAS headquarters in Lausanne, Switzerland to state their case, with the legal team were hopeful of CAS halving the ban to two months, meaning the former Liverpool striker would be available to play from August 25. They also want him to be allowed to train with Barcelona while he is suspended.
They were expected to argue that as the biting incident took place while playing for Uruguay in the World Cup then the ban should be limited to international football. Following the hearing, CAS issued a statement which read: "At the end of the hearing, the panel informed the parties that it will issue its decision as soon as possible, probably before the end of next week.
"The full arbitral award, with the grounds, will follow at a later date and be published by the CAS."
FIFA imposed a four-month ban from all football-related activity, plus a nine-match international ban and a £66,000 fine after Suarez bit Italy's Giorgio Chiellini during Uruguay's 1-0 win on June 24. FIFA's appeal committee later upheld the sanctions.
Barcelona paid Liverpool £75m for Suarez after he received his FIFA ban, which runs until October 25.

In the modern age, finding someone with whom we can share the rest of our lives is about so much more than butterflies and the sweetness of true love. With people jamming so much into their busy lives, compatibility is also about the achievement of personal and professional goals, and aligning with someone who can help make those goal attainable — or, at least, not get in the way.
For reasons fair and unfair, children are often cited as a roadblock that can inhibit the progression of a woman's professional ascent. There is, of course, the professional pushback on women who decided to have children — their careers are maligned by fewer opportunities and less pay.
But a new study by Harvard Business School's Robin Ely and Colleen Ammerman and Hunter College sociologist Pamela Stone suggest it's not the children online who are the problem. It's the partners that women choose.

text: Link Putting Money Where Mouths Are: Media Donations Favor Dems 100-1 By WILLIAM TATE | Posted Wednesday, July 23, 2008 4:20 PM PT The New York Times' refusal to publish John McCain's rebuttal to Barack Obama's Iraq op-ed may be the most glaring example of liberal media bias this journalist has ever seen. But true proof of widespread media bias requires one to follow an old journalism maxim: Follow the money. Even the Associated Press — no bastion of conservatism — has considered, at least superficially, the media's favoritism for Barack Obama. It's time to revisit media bias. True to form, journalists are defending their bias by saying that one candidate, Obama, is more newsworthy than the other. In other words, there is no media bias. It is we, the hoi polloi, who reveal our bias by questioning the neutrality of these learned professionals in their ivory-towered newsrooms. Big Media applies this rationalization to every argument used to point out bias. "It's not a result of bias," they say. "It's a matter of news judgment." And, like the man who knows his wallet was pickpocketed but can't prove it, the public is left to futilely rage against the injustice of it all. The "newsworthy" argument can be applied to every metric — one-sided imbalances in airtime, story placement, column inches, number of stories, etc. — save one. An analysis of federal records shows that the amount of money journalists contributed so far this election cycle favors Democrats by a 15:1 ratio over Republicans, with $225,563 going to Democrats, only $16,298 to Republicans . Two-hundred thirty-five journalists donated to Democrats, just 20 gave to Republicans — a margin greater than 10-to-1. An even greater disparity, 20-to-1, exists between the number of journalists who donated to Barack Obama and John McCain. Searches for other newsroom categories (reporters, correspondents, news editors, anchors, newspaper editors and publishers) produces 311 donors to Democrats to 30 donors to Republicans, a ratio of just over 10-to-1. In terms of money, $279,266 went to Dems, $20,709 to Republicans, a 14-to-1 ratio. And while the money totals pale in comparison to the $9-million-plus that just one union's PACs have spent to get Obama elected, they are more substantial than the amount that Obama has criticized John McCain for receiving from lobbyists: 96 lobbyists have contributed $95,850 to McCain, while Obama — who says he won't take money from PACs or federal lobbyists — has received $16,223 from 29 lobbyists. A few journalists list their employer as an organization like MSNBC, MSNBC.com or ABC News, or report that they're freelancers for the New York Times, or are journalists for Al Jazeera, CNN Turkey, Deutsche Welle Radio or La Republica of Rome (all contributions to Obama). Most report no employer. They're mainly freelancers. That's because most major news organization have policies that forbid newsroom employees from making political donations. As if to warn their colleagues in the media, MSNBC last summer ran a story on journalists' contributions to political candidates that drew a similar conclusion: "Most of the newsroom checkbooks leaned to the left." The timing of that article was rather curious. Dated June 25, 2007, it appeared during the middle of the summer news doldrums in a non-election year — timing that was sure to minimize its impact among the general public, while still warning newsrooms across the country that such political donations can be checked. In case that was too subtle, MSNBC ran a sidebar story detailing cautionary tales of reporters who lost their jobs or were otherwise negatively impacted because their donations became public. As if to warn their comrades-in-news against putting their money where their mouth is, the report also cautioned that, with the Internet, "it became easier for the blogging public to look up the donors." It went on to detail the ban that most major media organizations have against newsroom employees donating to political campaigns, a ban that raises some obvious First Amendment issues. Whether it's intentional or not, the ban makes it difficult to verify the political leanings of Big Media reporters, editors and producers. There are two logical ways to extrapolate what those leanings are, though. One is the overwhelming nature of the above statistics. Given the pack mentality among journalists and, just like any pack, the tendency to follow the leader — in this case, Big Media — and since Big Media are centered in some of the bluest of blue parts of the country, it is highly likely that the media elite reflect the same, or an even greater, liberal bias. A second is to analyze contributions from folks in the same corporate cultures. That analysis provides some surprising results. The contributions of individuals who reported being employed by major media organizations are listed in the nearby table. The contributions add up to $315,533 to Democrats and $22,656 to Republicans — most of that to Ron Paul, who was supported by many liberals as a stalking horse to John McCain, a la Rush Limbaugh's Operation Chaos with Hillary and Obama. What is truly remarkable about the list is that, discounting contributions to Paul and Rudy Giuliani, who was a favorite son for many folks in the media, the totals look like this: $315,533 to Democrats, $3,150 to Republicans (four individuals who donated to McCain). Let me repeat: $315,533 to Democrats, $3,150 to Republicans — a ratio of 100-to-1. No bias there. Tate is a former journalist, now a novelist and the author of "A Time Like This: 2001-2008."

Josh Sternberg singled through a drawn-in Poland infield and drove home the deciding run in the West Canada Valley Indians' 5-4 season-opening victory over the Tornadoes Monday.
Josh Sternberg singled through a drawn-in Poland infield and drove home the deciding run in the West Canada Valley Indians' 5-4 season-opening victory over the Tornadoes Monday.
The Indians had led 2-0 and 4-3 but Poland rallied to tie the game in the tops of the sixth and seventh innings. Alex Maxwell led off the bottom of the seventh inning with a single down the right field line, stole second base and moved to third on an overthrow. With a 3-1 count on Tyler Porter, the Tornadoes elected to intentionally walk the Indians' cleanup hitter and Nate George, as well, to set up force outs at all bases. Sternberg then fouled off the first pitch he saw from Kyle Lawson before stroking his game-winning hit into right field.
West Canada Valley had plated two runs in the first inning. Thomas Roberts reached base on an error leading off and Troy Moody singled. Brandon Tabor struck out the next two Indians before George laced a single into left field and gave the home team the early two-run lead.
The score remained 2-0 until the fifth inning. Roberts had shut the Tornadoes out on two hits, striking out six batters while walking none, but left the mound to rest his arm for the opening of league play later in the week. Poland promptly took advantage of defensive miscues and got the first of four unearned runs against reliever Jack Minasi. Zak Cavoly singled and Nate Killian reached base on an error. Tom Zielenski hit a hard ground ball to second base and Moody threw to the outfield side of the bag at second. Maxwell, the Indians' shortstop, held the bag while stretching for the throw but had no chance to double Zielenski up at first base. Cavoly, however, had rounded third base and Maxwell threw to Roberts at his new position in time to pick the lead runner off to complete a 4-6-5 double play.
Another error put Derek Bush, Poland's No. 9 hitter, on base, and Minasi balked the runners to second and third. Kenny Miller walked to load the bases and yet another error — West Canada Valley's third of the inning — allowed Zielenski to score as Troy Weakley reached base.
Roberts singled to start the bottom of the fifth and Moody drove him home with a double to give West Canada Valley back its two-run lead.
That lead, however, would disappear in the next half-inning. An error got Poland started and Zielenski drove Tabor and Lawson home with a one-out single.
West Canada Valley got the run and the lead back in the bottom of the sixth. Frank Dufford reached base on an error and Zach Schrader was hit by a pitch with one out. Roberts hit a potential double-play ball but the relay was thrown out of play, allowing Dufford to score for the Indians.
Page 2 of 2 - Tyler Porter relieved Minasi to pitch the seventh inning with a one-run lead. He struck out the first batter he faced but Miller grounded a double over the first base bag to put the tying run in scoring position. Miller moved to third base when Troy Weakley grounded out then Justin Weakley smacked a triple to left-center to tie the game at 4. Porter left the go-ahead run stranded at third base when the inning ended on another ground ball to Maxwell.
Each team finished the game with six hits with Moody, Miller and Cavoly collecting two each.
West Canada Valley is home again Tuesday for a game against Adirondack. Poland plays its first home game of the season Tuesday against Frankfort-Schuyler.
Poland 000 012 1 — 4 6 4

From the photo, it appears there is some sort of fruit peaking out of the muffin and poppy seeds, but your ingredients do not mention fruit/poppy seeds. Can you clarify? Have you tried replacing cooking oil with all-natural unsweetened applesauce? Warmly, Doreen
08/17/2009 - 06:40
Hi. In your recipe, you have indidated that there is 3/2tsp salt and 3/2c buttermilk. Were those measurements meant to be 2/3 tsp salt and 2/3 cup buttermilk? I've been looking for a really great muffin recipe, and I dont want to mess this up because I misunderstood. Thank you
