Year-Round Applications for Any Upcoming Term
Under our rolling admissions plan, Saybrook accepts applications year-round for multiple upcoming terms. We accept applications for admission and federal financial aid until the start of each semester or until all available slots have been filled by qualified applicants. We recommend, however, that you send all your application materials at least four weeks prior to the start of the semester to provide sufficient time for processing. Applications for Certificate Programs and individual courses must also be received by the start of each semester.
To begin the process, complete the online application form and submit the required documents for your program. Upon receipt of a completed application, your application will be reviewed. You will be notified as soon as a decision is made.
No Waiting
We evaluate each application independently and will notify you whether you have been admitted several weeks after we have received all your application materials. We do not wait to notify all students at once.
Apply Early for the Best Chance at Scholarships
Scholarships are awarded to eligible students on a first-come, first-served basis. To ensure your best chance of being awarded a Saybrook Scholarship, we must receive your completed admissions application by the priority date identified for the semester for which you are applying.

Charles A. KiorpesMarch 28,2013Charles A. Kiorpes
PALM CITY, Fla. Charles A. Kiorpes, 89, died Friday, March 22, 2013, in Stuart, FL. He had lived at Harbour Ridge near Palm City, FL, since 1989.
He was born and grew up in Yonkers, N.Y., where he graduated from Saunders Trade School. Charles continued his education at Columbia University, earning a B.S. Degree in Engineering.
He spent many years, at numerous locations, with the Ford Motor Company in technical and managerial assignments, followed by top executive positions at White Motor and Clark Equipment corporations.
During World War II, he served three years with the Army Air Forces, finishing his tour as a 1st Lt B-29 Navigator after 21 combat missions over Japan with the 3rd Photo Reconnaissance Squadron based on Guam.
Prior to going overseas, and while in training at UVM in Burlington, he met Ferne Wilkins of Rutland, who was in training for her RN at Mary Fletcher Hospital. Following her graduation, Ferne joined the Army Nurse Corps. Ferne and Charles were married in 1945 on the island of Biak, Dutch New Guinea, when they were both on duty in the South Pacific.
He was a life-long golfer, having learned the game as a caddie in Westchester County, N.Y., and played with a number of pros over the years, including Arnold Palmer and Tom Watson. He will be missed by his many friends on and off the golf course.
Charles is survived by his wife Ferne; their sons Anthony and Timothy; their daughter Lynne; his sister Elizabeth; his brothers Steven and George; Fernes sister Olive (Peg) Johnson; and six grandchildren.
His remains will be buried at Evergreen Cemetery in Rutland.
Donations in his memory can be made to the American Red Cross.MORE IN Obituaries0801 RH Obits Caldwell paid photo no flag Full Story0801 RH Obits Kotrady Paid photo flag Full Story0801 RH Obits Fredetee paid photo no flag Full Story

May 21, 2008 -- Sen. Edward Kennedy, diagnosed yesterday with brain cancer, headed to his Cape Cod, Mass., home today after being discharged from Massachusetts General Hospital.
"Senator Kennedy has recovered remarkably quickly from his Monday procedure" and was therefore released a day ahead of schedule, say Kennedy's doctors, who include Lee Schwamm, MD, vice chairman of the neurology department at Massachusetts General Hospital, and Larry Ronan, MD, a primary care physician at the same hospital.
Kennedy will stay at his Cape Cod home "while we await further test results and determine treatment plans. He's feeling well and eager to get started," say Schwamm and Ronan.
Kennedy's brain tumor is a malignant glioma in his left parietal lobe, an area of the brain involved in speech. WebMD spoke with Deborah Heros, MD, associate professor of clinical neurology and neuro-oncology at the University of Miami Leonard M. Miller School of Medicine, about cutting-edge treatments for malignant gliomas.
Heros is not involved in Kennedy's treatment or diagnosis. She notes that the location of Sen. Kennedy's glioma would likely rule out surgery to remove the tumor.
What are the latest or experimental treatments for malignant gliomas, and would Sen. Kennedy be a candidate for them?
The foundation for treatment of a glioma, through the years, has been radiation therapy. Most treatment plans or protocols start with radiation. The oral chemotherapy drug temozolomide (Temodar) has also become part of that initial plan that has been shown to be the most promising treatment. Most treatment begins with that combination of the radiation and the temozolomide.
There are many centers that are looking into newer treatments. Many of them are treatments that either could be added or perhaps used following the radiation and the temozolomide. ...
Some of the newer therapies include more specific chemotherapy agents that we call targeted therapies. We call them targeted therapies because the medication or chemotherapy has been developed to target a specific protein or function of the tumor cell to interfere with the tumor cell growth.
Many people will recognize the name Avastin as being one of the most popular and promising targeted therapies for many kinds of tumors and also gliomas. This targets the tumor's ability to produce new blood vessels, and the tumor needs new blood vessels to grow. The targeted therapy Avastin prevents the tumor from being able to produce new blood vessels. And so, in a sense, the tumor starves itself or cannot continue to grow because it's run out of its blood supply. Some physicians are using Avastin in a clinical protocol with other chemotherapeutic agents and some are using it along with the temozolomide during different phases of the treatment. That could be one add-on that maybe some of the physicians involved in Sen. Kennedy's care are considering.
There are other treatments, including the development of vaccines, or what we call immunotherapy, that are being studied at some of the various centers in the country to try to help the immune system turn around and fight against the tumor cells.
Other treatments being studied -- which I do not believe Sen. Kennedy would be a candidate for -- [include] surgical implantation for delivery of chemotherapy ... into the area of the tumor. Typically, if the patient is not a candidate for surgery because of the [tumor's location in the brain], they probably would not be a candidate for some of these localized treatment options.
Many centers are also using different viruses to deliver different genetic treatments to the tumors.
That's gene therapy?
It's called gene therapy, correct. The treatment uses a virus, and the genetic material within the virus can be manipulated or changed to contain genetic material that might fight directly against the tumor cells. That's a very exciting area. There are some centers around the country that are looking into this type of treatment.
Are there risks if it's a virus? People may hear "virus" and think that sounds risky.
The virus is actually inactivated. Although there might be potential side effects from the overall treatment, the virus itself would not cause a viral infection.
Do you find that a lot of patients with malignant gliomas are looking to get into a clinical trial or looking to try something experimental?
Over the years, a limited number of patients with malignant gliomas have been entered into clinical protocols. Although our treatments have advanced, there certainly is a long way to finding the perfect treatment, and therefore, participation in clinical protocols is very important. With this type of serious tumor, patients are very much interested in participating or at least being aware of what is available around the country to consider participating in a clinical protocol.
How would a patient find out where those trials are being done?
Fortunately, with the help of the media and the help of the Internet and various cancer-related societies, this information is more readily available. There are lists through the National Institutes of Health [and] the American Cancer Society. Many of the specialized cancer support groups throughout the country have lists of centers performing or offering clinical trials. And on the web sites of many of the medical centers -- usually universities but not necessarily limited to universities -- the contact number to inquire about clinical trials and information about clinical trials is available.
Anything else you would want to add?
I think everyone looks forward to seeing Sen. Kennedy move along in his treatment, and I suspect he will be an inspiration to everyone as he begins his treatment.

Clearwire launches in 10 markets, outlines broadband plans
Clearwire has lunched its 4G WiMAX service in the 10 markets that were announced last month and said it plans to apply for funds from the government's broadband stimulus project.
With the addition of the 10 new markets, Clearwire is in a total of 14 markets with 10 million people.
Effective today, the new markets are Abilene, Amarillo, Corpus Christi, Killeen/Temple, Lubbock, Midland/Odessa, Waco and Wichita Falls, all in Texas; Bellingham, Wash; and Boise, Idaho. The Texas locations are all in Time Warner Cable's footprint, while the Idaho and Washington markets are served by Comcast.
During an earnings call last month, Time Warner Cable Chairman and CEO Glenn Britt said Time Warner Cable would resell the Clear service in Dallas and Charlotte, N.C., as well as two unnamed markets.
In July, Comcast said it was rolling Clear into Atlanta, with Chicago, Philadelphia and other areas launching later this year.
Clearwire has said that other launches this year include Chicago, Charlotte, Dallas, Seattle, Honolulu and Philadelphia.
Clearwire has already launched mobile WiMAX in Atlanta, Baltimore, Las Vegas and Portland, Ore., and it expects to spend between $1.5 billion and $1.9 billion this year to expand its network.
In 2010, Clearwire plans to launch the 4G service in New York (Time Warner Cable), Boston (Comcast), Washington, D.C. (Comcast), Houston (Comcast) and the San Francisco Bay Area (Comcast), among others. Clearwire has a goal of bringing Clear to 80 markets and up to 120 million customers by the end of next year.
Last year, Comcast, Time Warner Cable, Bright House Networks, Sprint Nextel, Intel and Google invested $3.2 billion in Clearwire.
Today, Clearwire confirmed that it's applying for a "modest amount" of broadband stimulus funds from the federal government in order to bring its service to Detroit and Puerto Rico, which are two areas that weren't originally part of the company's business plan.
Clearwire also announced its plans to affiliate itself with a limited number of other grants submitted, as a spectrum and technology partner, covering additional territories in five states. Clearwire said the stimulus-related projects would have no significant impact on its funding or build-out plans, but would "demonstrate the company's support of the government's stimulus initiatives."

ROSEMONT, Ill.---The Chicago Wolves surrendered two power-play goals and couldn't crack Oklahoma City Barons goaltender Martin Gerber until late in the third period as they fell, 2-1, at the Allstate Arena Sunday night.
Center Jared Ross scored the lone goal for Chicago (24-20-2-3), which saw its three-game winning streak snapped with the loss.
"We fought hard but we were definitely out of gas tonight," said Wolves Head Coach Don Lever. "We looked good the first 10 minutes but then the three games in three nights caught up to us."
A power-play opportunity early in the second period helped the Barons take a 1-0 lead. Right wing Colin McDonald caught the puck bouncing through the crease and swung to push it past Wolves goaltender Drew MacIntyre at 5:50 of the middle frame.
Oklahoma City (25-16-2-4) pulled ahead, 2-0, at 7:14 of the third period with a second power-play tally when center Brad Moran took a pass from left wing Alexandre Giroux and flicked a shot past MacIntyre from below the near circle.
MacIntyre (7-5-1) posted 20 saves for Chicago.
Ross got the Wolves on the board with 2:45 remaining in the third period when he scooped the puck up out of a scrum in front of the net and roofed a shot past Gerber and into the top right corner of the net.
Gerber (16-10-2) stopped 21 of 22 shots for the Barons.
The Wolves travel to Oklahoma City for a rematch with the Barons at Cox Convention Center on Wednesday at 7 p.m.
Oklahoma City 0 1 1 -- 2
Chicago 0 0 1 -- 1
First Period---None. Penalties---Giroux, Oklahoma City (interference), 8:54; Bench, Chicago (too many men), 13:39; Plante, Oklahoma City (hooking), 15:51.
Second Period---1, Oklahoma City, McDonald 23 (Aiello, Giroux), 5:50 pp. Penalties---Stewart, Oklahoma City (slashing), 1:02; Kulda, Chicago (holding), 4:39; Ross, Chicago (hooking), 9:31.
Third Period---2, Oklahoma City, Moran 12 (Giroux, Aiello), 7:14 pp; 3, Chicago, Ross 14 (Postma, Machacek), 17:15. Penalties---Vandevelde, Oklahoma City (roughing), 2:26; Valabik, Chicago (high-sticking), 2:26; Pettersson, Chicago (illegal stick), 6:39.

I think you're right and yes, it is hard to talk about some angles without drifting into political topics. But, if this is such a serious problem, shouldn't everything be put on the table? And if bringing up politics, pharma companies, and crime statistics is ignored or censored, then, they are not really serious about solving this issue and looks more like political witch hunts instead.
Look at the indiscriminate drone attacks all over the world going on because of our government. So article came out showing that for every 1 "terrorist" they bombed, 50 innocent by-standers were killed.
That's pretty bad. And the attitude that this indiscriminate killing is ok because it's the government is pretty hypocritical. I see no difference at all. Except one is frowned upon and the other is, "merica, f%#& yeah!
I think the focus should be on the types of people doing this. But, if they want to make this about inanimate objects, then let's examine all of them, not a select few.
Censorship is intended to create an illusion that one side of the debate is correct and unopposed. Silence is not consent.

All excellent points, I think the 'merica f%&# yeah line pretty much says it all. If I look back at my youth (born in '78) every influence around me was of war, and a desensitizing to it. So may movies, cartoons, etc... Were a glorification of being a trained killer. From Gi-joe to Full Metal Jacket and everything inbetween. The America I grew up in was one of ego driven %^&* waving, pardon the expression. We have been taught from youth that violence is the answer.
Kind of explains why so many were so easily convinced that this war was the only answer.

Guns, video games, etc. They're simple, copout answers for reasons as to why somebody did something terribly bad. I guess people like to focus on HOW a tragedy was carried out and not WHY. There's a reason(s) why some person went postal. Nobody likes to bring up the idea too much about good 'ol human anger, desire for revenge / payback. Or somebody was just a plain nutjob. Guns and video games leading to violence is also a neat political deflection tool from politicians' real incompetence.

We need support, but it is almost suicide to try to get it here as we are swept by machine gun fire and a constant barrage is on us. I have no one on my left and only a few on my right. I will hold."

What happens when you get 5 stars do you get a cookie? ;)
Violence and bloodshed caused from so called video game and tv violence will never even come close to the amount that has happened in the name of religion perpetrated on those had different beliefs from the perpetrators.
Trying to steer clear of the politics while looking at how politicians are targeting video games is not an easy thing to do.
I notice that the Obama administration has announced an investigation into the link between Video Games and gun crime. I was wondering if any other investigations have been called for? Posters on here have suggested rap music, TV, hunting with guns and so on.
If video games are the only thing that gets investigated then only video games can be found "guilty". This question has been asked before and to my knowledge no link has been established. It seems successive governments around the world will just keep asking this question until a link is found. Then all the previous research will be thrown out the window and they will come down on the gaming industry.

Even cartoons can be very violent, some even promote it even though often it's bad against the good.
All these can be seen as learning tools for weak minded persons or even for highly intelligent people.
Sure everything could be "that" trigger for a person. Is there a correlation between violence and video games, sure there is likewise with every other form of media that could be a trigger. Should we ban all forms of entertainment now due to some people not able to see the difference between entertainment or real life?

There is no good or evil, only power - and those too weak to seek it.
The simple fact is this, humanity is influenced, angry, spitful, hatefilled, constantly capable of terrible acts. They don't need outward influences, then don't need much to do the worst we are capable of, you can point the finger wherever you want, its just a fact of life. Every 1-25 is a sociopath, plenty of people capable of great evil.
The best thing you can do, is take away there ability to do it so easily.

"Playing things I shouldn''t be playing since 1977."
The most interesting thing about recent events, with the Biden Comission and the call for study, is how "uneventful" it all really is.
Yes, a comission was called after Sandy Hook. Yes, the video game industry showed up to it. The film industry did too. They weren't subpoenaed to go, and they weren't required to go, but they went anyway.
This alone created qute a stir in the gaming press, from what I've seen. Some argued that the video game industry was wrong to go, because it made them look like criminals if they spoke to the commission. Others said no, that having a seat at the commission table was the right thing to do. Because you know the parent groups are going to have a seat, and the NRA too.
And when Biden released his report, the focus was on guns, not games. When the President got a hold of the report, he did nothing to restrict or ban the sale of games. He didn't even use his power as chief executive to send the CDC after games. He went to Congress and suggested that perhaps they ought to put forth some money to study the links between violence in all kinds of media (films included) and acts of violence.
That's it.
The more unusual thing, for me, is how this non-event is spinned like the end of the world around here. The gaming sphere is the one who is overreacting here, and I wonder why. We haven't even had half of this discourse generated over the California criminal penalty for selling games to a minor, the one that was eventually struck down by the courts. Why is it that, all of the sudden, we are trying so hard to "de-couple" the link between violence and video games?
Perhaps it's because, deep down, we know that these things are too violent...perhaps unecessarily violent...and we are trying to collectively fool ourselves into thinking they aren't. Perhaps, deep down, we know these games are unhealthy, or create unhealthy habits. Perhaps, deep down, we know these games foster cruelty, and are venues for cruel acts. Perhaps, deep down, we know these games are exploitive: they make money by sucessfully manipulating the subconscious, base motives of naiive players.
This whole hoopla around violent video games--this thread included--looks more like a smokescreen than a legit concern. Because it's one thing to actually rally against some legislative action or policy change, but this thread isn't about that. It's about distracting us from the real questions that nobody around here seems to have the courage to ask: do we really need all the violence we see these days in the games? Who is attracted to the gore? Why is it that we are constantly told that realistic player housing and engaging non-combat professions are too hard and too niche for games to offer...but realistic decapitations, slo-mo death animations, and blood spurts are neither too hard, nor too niche?
"...when it comes to pimping EVE I have little restraints."
"It's like they took a gun, put it to their nugget sack and pulled the trigger over and over again, each time telling us how great it was that they were shooting themselves in the balls."
The idea that players can overact to such accusations because they secretly or unconsciously agree with the accusations is a fallacy.
You are basically saying, you do not agree with me, but you do really. In your heart of heart, you may not be saying you agree, but I am right and you do agree. Your argument seems to be intended to stop people taking a position other than yours by labeling them as deviant or lacking in personnal insight.
If I argue against you, I am either secretly a lover of gore and killing toons on screen even if I know it is morally wrong and is causing people to kill one another. Or perhaps I am a UK gun lover, who wishes we all could own automatic weapons over here?
I regard such an argument as misdirection, designed to make those who oppose your view seem sinister or unaware of their own motivations.
This is our hobby, that is why we are protective of it. Waiting until legislation has passed to react is a bit pointless.
As to selling video games to the underaged that is clearly wrong. It is no different to selling alcohol to minors, and should be prosecuted as such.

Perhaps the games I play aren't repulsive and gory but I have always been more shocked by what I see in movies and tv than in my games. When it comes to desensitization, those 2 lead in massive ways.
Take these movies as examples of gory attempts at realism and graphic detail.
Scarface, Goodfellas, Casino, Pulp Fiction, Audition, Saw, Silence of the Lambs
How many people quote those movies as if it's normality? It's because they have been given a "cool" factor for the characters, expanded below.
Then you take detective shows, it ain't like Matlock or Murder she wrote from the old days which were removed from the gore today.
Now they have virtual guides on how to commit murders with CSI type shows that give forensic information and ways to avoid capture. Now you have autopsys on the screen and graphic details of murder scenes breaking down all the parts and re-constructing what happened, detail by detail with images. I'd imagine they are giving people guides on a weekly basis on how to break the law and frankly I think it is affecting the way people look at murder especially as something that you can get away with. It's probably better training than you get in prison.
What I don't like is that the shows seem to associate "cool" people with criminal behavior by giving them the cool lines and portraying them as if their actions make them cool because they are indifferent to it. That's a mental illness, it's called a sociopath/pychopath to lack empathy. It is not something "cool" at all.
The detectives are usually square goofs no better than inspector gadget requiring entire teams to find a lone attacker while the criminals are superb masterminds that have planned out how to escape capture 15 ways and it's elaborate with timed messages and special instructions. Which one does an idiot want to emulate - which is farthest from their true self. If anything is leading people to crime in general, it's movies and tv over video games undoubtedly.
For the record, I haven't turned my tv on for years. Whenever I visit someone elses house I get exposed to those crime shows and even over the holidays they ran the crap in the background - I suggested we turn on some xmas music instead while playing cards. I think I had my daily allowance of murders and wanted to cheer up a bit singing grandma got run over by a reindeer. Spoiler, grandma doesn't die.

"Playing things I shouldn''t be playing since 1977."
Why are so many people so protective of a medium that protects itself better than any media has in the history of media?
And protecting it from whom? Because I don't see any law or restriction coming out of these talks. All I see is a polite request to study them further.
But, you know, if we really want to "protect" our gorefests, the best way to do it is to come up with a case for why the gore is necessary. Why is the gore good? What is it about the death animations, the killing, and the simulated cruelty that is so beneficial?
But we won't hear that kind of statement on these boards.
Instead, we'll do as we have always done: answer the accusation by accusing the accusers of something malicious. I'm accused of misdirection, but is it any less of a misdirection than what we are saying about the people who say the games are too violent? We accuse them of using the violence in video games as a way to conceal their bad parenting. But this does little to answer the charge: that the games are too violent, and the violence is causing problems.
Is it? Well, if it isn't, we should have no problem with the notion that the games should be studied. But, apparently, we do. Why do you think that is? Perhaps (and I always say perhaps) because we suspect the accusers are right.
"...when it comes to pimping EVE I have little restraints."
"It's like they took a gun, put it to their nugget sack and pulled the trigger over and over again, each time telling us how great it was that they were shooting themselves in the balls."
Beatnik59 if you imply that someone has an opinion for sinister reasons or an agenda, you can hardly be surprised when they call you out for it.
I am not here to defend gratuitous violence in video games, I often see no reason for it myself. But I do not think that graphic violence is making children violent. That is the crux here, does this sort of imagery and gameplay make people want to go out and commit violence? I think not and as far as I know no study has established a link. So you are phrasing the question to win your point, no one is seriously going to come on here and tell you why gore is good because they don't have to.
You seem to be suggesting video games are exempt from the law, but they are rated just like other media.
I am not saying this is down to bad parenting, but I accept that as a possible contributing cause for what has happened.
Why do further studies into a link concern me? Because they are politically motivated, once politics gets involved the rigours of an academic study are put under pressure. Instead of looking at past studies and drawing a conclusion they want a new study because of media pressure, pressure that wants to name a culprit for this crime. Like I said why not investigate rap music or hunting with guns? If this investigation was fair, other areas of society would be looked at.
I saw the video clip of the Vice President, "even though you had the Supreme Court ruling go your way... just because you have that on your side doesn't mean you have public opinion on your side." - In other words your highest court may have looked at all the research and legal arguments and found no link between video games and violence, but that does not matter. "Public" opinion, for which you can read media opinion is not on the gaming industries side.
Fancy a witch hunt anyone?

10 Million Dollars will go towards studying the "Link" between real-life violence and video-games. This is truly a waste of the hard-earn tax-dollar money that could be use for better mental-health care options than wasting it on electronic entertainment.
Not only have video-games from time to time again have been proven to have no link to any serious real-life aggression or promotion of such aggression, but it is simply condeming the game-player as a criminal based on his hobbies alone. Not his record or the content of his character.
A normal and responsible citizen does not play a video-game, suddenly become so mesmorized or easily influenced by a fictional game to the point he or she will go out into society and cause damage. The majority of players playing video-games are 30-year olds, not a child playing games which are not made for his age (M+17 games given by parents for 9-year olds to play with). In other words, adults and older teenagers with brain-cells who know the difference between right and wrong, real-life and video-life.
Those who do act out are those who's sons or daughters have gone out of control(most commonly known as spoiled) and the parent either allowed it to esculate, or didn't take the proper measures to cool their heels while they were young. Also consider how the current system handles mentally disturbed individuals with evil agendas or who cannot control themselves.
These recent real-life shooters playing video-games have been adults(who graduated from college, therefore in no way ignorant or stupid) with calculated agendas and planning. Who did not care about the consequences and focused simply on the execution of their plans. Them playing video-games have very little to nothing to do with their henious crimes against society no more than water condemned because a criminal drank from a faucet.
The gaming world has donated thousands of hundreds of dollars supported by players to national child-funding organizations. By condeming video-games, the USA government is potentially cutting off thousands of those extra dollars that would have not been possible had it not been for the existance of the games or gamers themselves.
Obliviously players can make a distinction between real-life and gaming life. Not all video-games however are meant for children, nor should they be played by children due to their content(which is why the rating system exsist with the defined age printed clearly on both website and box). Just as television or books are not only meant for kids but for a range of audiences both adult or teen. The same should be considered in gaming, as it is also another entertaiment venure.

I can only speak from personal experience. I've been playing video games since age 5 when I was stomping on the head of Koopas. I had no desire to stomp on anyone's head in real life. I have played every kind of game since then. I don't even want to get into fist fight with anyone. Heck, I don't even enjoy getting into arguments with people.
Video games have been used as a scapegoat for as long as I can remember. It's a convenient excuse. That's all there is to it.
Enter a whole new realm of challenge and adventure.

The Division of Engineering Education and Centers (EEC) supports creation of a more agile engineering education ecosystem, equally open and available to all members of society, that dynamically and rapidly adapts to meet the changing needs of society and the Nation's economy. Research is sought that will inform systemic change across all parts of the ecosystem; areas of interest include, but are not limited to:
Competitive proposals advance understanding in engineering education by grounding the proposed work in theory as well as relevant prior work in engineering education specifically and education generally. Proposals should clearly address why the proposed research fills gaps in existing knowledge and address how evaluation will inform the research effort and allow assessment of the project's impact and effectiveness.
Engineering education research projects should address the iterative cycle in which research questions that advance understanding are informed by practice and the results of research are, in turn, translated into practice. In other words, how are the research results broadly generalizable and/or transferable? Successful projects identify specific target audiences, effective communication channels, and novel partnerships to ensure broad dissemination. PIs are strongly encouraged to provide a roadmap detailing how they envision the proposed research will eventually be scaled to broadly impact practice, even if these activities are not within the scope of the submitted proposal.
Proposals to build research capacity such as developing means to measure engineering thinking, doing, and knowing or proposals to build research networks or infrastructure will be considered. This program strongly discourages proposals that seek funding primarily to develop tools, curriculum, or laboratories, or that seek to implement innovations that have already been shown to be effective for engineering students. More information can be found in the program's Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ), see link below.
The REE program accepts a diverse range of project scales from small, exploratory projects to large scale investigations with a broad, systemic scope; project budgets should match the project scope. Small-scale, exploratory projects with high transformative potential are strongly encouraged. The estimated number of awarded proposals is based on a projected average funding level of approximately $100,000 per project per year. All PIs should discuss the budget of proposed projects with a cognizant program officer before submission.

Strangely enough I found that I wasn't nervous this morning when Gary, the photographer arrived for the Reader's Digest photo shoot. I was more anxious about the rather moth-ballish smell which seems to have taken over the house in the past week, so was busily lighting anti-stink (I mean delicately perfumed) candles instead of doing my hair.
There is a point in a woman's life (I am well beyond this point) when you realise that Old Father Time is a b*****d and that no amount of preening or celebrity hip-angling can disguise the fact that you do not, and are never again likely to look 'fierce' on camera. I put on a shift dress (black obviously – I am resigned, but not stupid) and looked in the mirror, then immediately donned a large grey cardigan to cover it all up. Yes, you are correct, I do have body image issues.
The next hour was spent wondering why he was using such a wide angle and why I hadn't put on a pair of trousers.
The shoot itself was good, if slightly surreal. The sun shone beautifully (considering it's March in North Yorkshire this is nothing short of the miracle I had prayed for). I was asked to pose in my garden by the washing line. I did say it was slightly surreal. On the line were pegged a number of large white pieces of cardboard which stubbornly refused to dangle straight and almost took off, taking my hair with them, when each gust of wind reared. The final image will superimpose some of my own family photos onto these pieces of card, but today it felt rather like standing amongst the handiwork of a slightly over-zealous washerwoman with a lifetime supply of starch.
I felt relaxed and satisfied until about 10 minutes after Gary left when I thought I'd take a quick peak at his website. OMG. The first portrait to greet me was the gorgeous Halle Berry, who clearly does not have body image issues. I flicked on. Next page – Daniel Craig. Then Paul Newman, Christopher Eccleston, Alicia Keys, Norman Wisdom, James Cracknell…….
I am not expecting my portrait to make it into his portfolio……..

Daniel Cormier wants to fight Frank Mir at April's UFC on Fox 7 - Bloody Elbow
Originally slated to headline an eventually cancelled November Strikeforce event, Daniel Cormier vs. Frank Mir didn't happen due to an undisclosed injury suffered by the former UFC heavyweight champion.
But the 33-year-old Cormier is still keeping the dream alive and in an interview with FightHubTV, the Strikeforce Grand Prix champion said he has a date and venue already in mind: the April 20th UFC on Fox 7 event in San Jose, California.
One of the obstacles standing in his way: a Saturday, January 12th date with Dion Staring, the co-main event of Strikeforce's final show. While the Dutch fighter isn't well-known, he will go into the fight on a six fight win streak and has 22 finishes in 28 career wins."I would love for it to be on the FOX show here in San Jose. April 20th, fight Frank Mir, on FOX, have it be a free broadcast and that will help expose me and get more fans behind me who may not know me. That is what I want right now. That is the fight I have trained for, and would be excited to train for it again; Mir wants the fight, I think it would be a great fight. Its like we are doing Joe Silvas job for him."
The undefeated Cormier (10-0) was last seen dominating Josh Barnett via unanimous decision in May to win the Grand Prix."I am not intimidated; it is something that I need to be very aware of. So intimidation no, Im very aware of it. I am respectful of it. I respect every guy, anyone who enters the cage to fight, I respect them. As guys climb ladders and get into positions where they are in this sport, you have to respect what gets them there; for him, his kickboxing is something I am aware of and respect him for it."

The essential weirdness here is that Rosenberg is taking the fictional world of a movie and using it as proof positive that you shouldn't go to grad school. Making this even stranger is the fact that she herself admits that the situation in the movie is a fantasy. The plot, apparently, involves two skeptical professors who are losing their prestige within the department and university to a parapsychologist. I am very aware that there are failings in the modern research university, but I assure you, the creeping influence of parapsychology is not among them. So... what?
Rosenberg writes, "No self-respecting university would put this much muscle behind paranormal research, but no matter." Um, why is that no matter? Isn't the plausibility of the given situation precisely at issue when considering if a movie works as a critique of the academy? Rosenberg had very little regard for the movie The Ides of March; I doubt she'd take it as an effective critique of the state of political journalism, precisely because she finds it such an implausible document.
She continues:
Silly stuff, but it conveys some of the desperation of being shut out. I can imagine graduate students struggling to keep their funding will empathize. Ultimately, it's Sally and Ben who make a critical discovery, rather than Tom, and their revelation turns out not to matter very much anyway. While I won't reveal it, Tom ends up meeting a more dramatic fate that suggests whatever time and money he spent on his PhD may have been a waste. Academia has rarely looked worse.But how is a fictional movie specifically constructed to attack the academy a critique of the academy at all, particularly when the situation has such little relevance in actual scholarship? If the idea is that patronage and personality matter in the university, sometimes to the detriment of scholarship, I am on board with the critique. I must point out that political blogging is among the fields where social capture and patronage dominates the most. (I mean, really.) In any field, any field at all, talent and ability can take a back seat to likeability and social influence. The fact that the university resides in the real world and is subject to all of its problems is not an argument to avoid grad school.
Rosenberg shoe-horns a bit of a critique of the economics of graduate education in, by talking about graduate students who are in danger of losing their funding. This is an issue, though perhaps an overblown one. I've said it a thousand times: don't go to a PhD program if you're not funded, and be ruthlessly mercenary in your professional choices in pursuing this life. (I have myself.) It's just that this a wholly separate issue from which kinds of research and scholarship grant one authority in a given field. The declining fortunes of certain areas of scholarship relative to others is a product of a confluence of political and economic factors, such as the perceived practicality of a field or the ability of research to fund itself.
For the broader issue of graduate school and whether it makes sense, I wrote a long post about this awhile back that I think still stands. To put it simply, there are smart ways and not smart ways to go about graduate school. Sure: many people go and find that they can't get the jobs that they wanted. But many thousands go and find themselves gainfully employed. Individuals have tremendous ability to make sane, informed decisions about whether and how to proceed. As I say in that post, going to graduate school is announcing that you want to be a researcher. Those who attempt to gain entry without doing the necessary due diligence in researching the job market have no one to blame but themselves.
What's more, this is an odd time to critique going to grad school. As I mention in that post, criticisms of graduate school often revolve around opportunity costs. But opportunity costs imply opportunity; for recent college graduates, the job market is terrible to begin with. If you are funded, as you most certainly should be if you are going to get your PhD, your opportunity costs are only as large as the opportunities you actually had. Finally, I will note that, from a social justice standpoint, nobody should be weeping for the plight of the American PhD. The unemployment rate for such people is below 2%, lower than any other education level and far lower than the national average. Sure, there's selection bias and ability effects there, but from the position of social justice, that's irrelevant: people with PhDs are in great shape in great majorities, both in a national and worldwide context.
Even in failing fields, there are more practical and less practical paths, ways to take more or less risks. Choose, take your best shot, and see where you land. That's capitalism.
Ultimately, political punditry's ceaseless war on graduate education comes down to a very strange misreading of what getting a graduate degree means. Pundits and bloggers act as though graduate school has ever amounted to a guarantee of a certain job or a certain lifestyle. But in this system, employment and fulfillment are always a gamble, whether you pursue your dream in a comparative literature department or go full mercenary at a Wall Street bank.
Update: Incidentally, I've gotten some emails saying that I shouldn't have written this; I'm guilty of the sin of taking what Alyssa Rosenberg wrote seriously. Though the emails think that they are defending her, they both, in fact, operate on the principle that she was just a girl writing about movies. I don't play that.

Type portrait with one thumb a
How do you type on the iPhone: Portrait or landscape? [Poll]
Last night we asked you how you grip the iPhone while typing, and tonight we're continuing our typing series by asking you about your orientation -- portrait or landscape?
Apple says they designed the iPhone with one-handed ease of use in mind, and maybe that's why it took them until iOS 3 to make landscape mode persistent across most of the built-in apps. But for a lot of people, the extra-wide, Cadillac-style typing experience of landscape is exactly what they want, number of hands it takes to hold and use it be damned.
For others, it might depend on the app. Portrait for on the go or quick stuff, landscape for speed-texting or longer-form writing.
When you want to get your type on, which orientation do you hold your iPhone? Portrait or landscape? Vote in the poll up top and give us the details and why you do what you do below!

How do you type on the iPhone: Portrait or landscape? [Poll]
I only use typing when I'm in areas that I don't want everyone to know what I'm saying for I use Siri a lot. Siri has been great for the most part and the more its used she gets more accustom to how I speak. Not having to type is great. I don't stumble on what I'm trying to get out as much.
Portrait, much easier for two handed typing with my small hands, landscape is awkward and I make many more mistakes.
I'm definitely more of a portrait guy. However, I did type the foreword to a friends book on my iPhone 4 in landscape. With that said...long live auto-correct and word recognition!
I mostly type in portrait.. It's just easier, the phone is already in that orientation. I'm used to the exact spacing of the keyboard in portrait. If I'm feeling a little spontaneous or adventurous though, I'll occasionally type in landscape just for the fun of it.
I mostly use portrait. To me it's more convenient cause the phone is already being held in portrait. Even when I use both hands to type I find it more natural in portrait then I do in landscape.
One handed 99% of the time, although I am more accurate with two hands.
Portrait. I was one of the complainers about how much I wanted landscape for texting. By the time it rolled around, I was so used to portrait, I always forgot I even had the option, and when I did remember, it felt funny.
Still barely ever use it. And the fact that you can't see hardly any of the message window in landscape kills it's usefulness in my opinion.
I hardly find myself typing on landscape. Just used to it that way just because most of the apps don't really rotate to landscape mode so it's always in portrait. Plus it's much more convenient to type in that way. For sure you will need to have two hands typing in landscape way lol.
Portrait all the way. I think the novelty of being able to type in landscape wore off years ago. At least for me. When I got my first touchscreen smartphone and was able to type in landscape I absolutely used it. But after a few months I tried going back to portrait and realized that I was way more efficient with portrait. I haven't seen someone type in landscape in a long, long time. I think this is mostly due to the fact that phones are becoming larger and larger and holding them sideways is harder to type (I could be wrong).
Portrait for most cases and Siri dictation on rare occasions.
When I got my first touch screen I was all about typing in landscape, now the iPhone has kinda re-trained me to type in portrait since most apps don't have an allowance for landscape. I have big hands and fingers so it is not an exact science but auto correct saves the day. I feel better typing in landscape but muscle memory now causes me to make even more mistakes when I try to. Using Siri and voice dictation is becoming more prevalent when it is quiet and especially when I'm alone so I don't feel like too big of a dork.
i don't know why you guys make poll answers with qualifiers. For example it may depend but it doesn't have to depend on the app. It may depend on mood. But you're answer forces people to pick and an answer that may not be accurate. It be wrong then to assume that for these people it's simply the app that's determining how they type. Maybe they simply type based on if they have a free second hand or not.
Landscape mostly, though I do text in portrait whenever I am obligated by the App (*cough*Facebook*cough*). And no, it doesn't weird at all. By looking at some of these comments, I can see why some people wouldn't want a 4.8 inch iPhone.
Going thru the comments, it seems like a lot of people rocked out with landscape typing when they 1st got their iPhone....I bet a lot of these people came from a "feature" phone with a physical/slide-out keyboard (voyager, sidekick, the V, etc.....) & it was a lot easier making the switch from physical to touch screen.
Just an observation
portrait of course unless watching a youtube video and commenting
Don't have an iPhone yet because I am waiting to win one from iMore. But when I did have an iPhone 3 I always used portrait and will continue to do so.
I use portrait when I absolutely have to, since some apps don't really give the option, unfortunately. However, do to an injury, the thumb on my dominant hand doesn't bend, so one handed typing is complicated, inaccurate and rather unbalanced. I really wish all apps had a landscape option. (ie. Facebook, etc) I've actually chosen many apps because of the option to use landscape typing.

Guy Who Pays the Bills and Gets the Death Threats Style: MMA (Retired)--
The question isn't whether or not we see injury faking in other sports. It's whether or not we should tolerate it in this one.
And the answer to that is obvious; I watch, train, and judge MMA for many reasons, but largely because it's not Soccer, Basketball, or any other sport that penalizes you for playing rough and rewards you for falling down and crying.

Taking a dive, as it were, is fucking lame. Moreso in mma which is, to me, rightly held up as a bastion of honersble conflict.
Not putting on my Mr Rogers cardigan or anything, but saku, fedor, and other greats are/were very classy in their dispositions. The UFC has built it's wretched self into a drama machine. TUF is to mma what Jerry springer is/was to Investigative journalism.
It's the reason I usually watch anything before I'd sit through their events. Dana's doing a great disservice to mma, along with some of the douchebags he pushes. I miss Pride.

5/10/2010 10:10am--"Out of every hundred men, ten shouldn't even be there, eighty are just targets, nine are the real fighters, and we are lucky to have them, for they make the battle. Ah, but the one, one is a warrior, and he will bring the others back." -- Hericletus, circa 500 BC
In fighting it is 1 ref watching 2 fighters so less goes unnoticed.
In boxing, it is easier for a ref to see constant holding and hitting or low blows so sometimes you will see a fighter overact when they take a groin shot or thumb in the eye to get a few extra seconds of rest and have a point taken from the other guy. The ref will remember that last round he JUST warned the guy so obviously "the guy doesn't respect me so I'll show him!" and pull the trigger on a point snatch.
Main difference is in most boxing matches you have 10-12 round to make up for that lost point and in MMA you only have 3-5 so the penalty is greater. I think it is and will be the exception rather then the rule.
Koscheck and Daley reminded me of Haugen and Pazienza with all the trash talk and genuine dislike for one another before and after the fight.

Style: Keyboard Warrior--
I don't approve of these incidents where fighters pull idiotic stunts on camera such as Daley hitting Koschek after the bell or Jason Miller's stupid antics after Strikeforce Nashville. I don't want MMA compared to pro wrestling. Good that Daley was cut from UFC, I am not interested in disrespectful or unsportsmanlike (or criminal) conduct in MMA. What is next, some soap-opera style storyline about feuds between fighters, hitting each other with folding chairs at ringside? **** that garbage..

Give me a break. Daley went for an illegal knee with serious intent. That knee may have only been a glancing blow but it didn't just whiff air and even an apparently glancing blow can have an effect. I also don't doubt that Daley was eye-gouging throughout, he had to be working something when he should have been working take down defense and he clearly didn't use that time appropriately.
Also, **** Daley. You spend more than a month insulting a guy and he says something so horrible in the last thirty seconds that you can't keep your head on right? Grow up and GTFO. You had 15 minutes to hit the guy, should have done it then.
Neither Hardy nor Daley earned their title shots or contender bouts and I'm glad one of them is gone.
