News & Information » Fact Sheets » USAID Afghanistan University Support & Workforce Development Program (USWDP)
In 2002, Afghanistan had 45,886 university students. In 2013, the number has grown to 123,579. Despite this progress, increased focus is needed on the quality and relevance of academic programs and on managing the expansion of tertiary education to keep pace with burgeoning demand. USAID Afghanistan University Support and Workforce Development Program, is designed to help Afghanistan's higher education professionals effectively manage the growth of tertiary education while improving academic quality. Building on the successes of the Afghanistan Higher Education Project (HEP, 2006-2014) and other initiatives, the program will improve the management capacity of the Ministry of Higher Education (MoHE) and up to 10 public universities.
- Work closely with ten public universities, i.e. Kabul University, Kabul Polytechnic University, Kabul Medical University, Kabul Education University (Shaheed Prof. Rabani Education University), Nangarhar University, Herat University, Balkh University, Kandahar University, Kunduz University and Khost University to improve their management systems, academic programs, and links to public and private employers.
- Strengthen MoHE systems and management capacity to enable the Ministry to successfully foster and navigate a tertiary education environment, which will be more decentralized, and will serve as a conduit for realization of national strategy goals as delineated in the Afghanistan National Development Strategy.
- Conduct a series of studies to examine university-level management capacity to deliver quality education services and the linkages between tertiary education and the workforce in Afghanistan.
- MoHE has established the policy for financial autonomy at public universities, and the national system of Quality Assurance and accreditation
- MoHE has the ability to receive on-budget funding, and its management system is gender sensitive
- Academic programs are modern, robust, high quality, and relevant to the needs of employers in Afghanistan
- Male and female graduates of associate degree and bachelor's programs have the necessary skills to find relevant entry-level professional employment as well as leadership-level professional employment
- University instructors develop courses and conduct research that contributes to their field of study

(Peras Rellenas para Passover)
YIELD: Makes 6 servings
IngredientsPoached Pears
- 1 bottle full-bodied red wine such as Zinfandel
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise
- 3-inch stick canela (see Tips, below)
- 1 teaspoon anise seeds
- 1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest
- 6 whole Anjou pears, peeled, cored, and hollowed (see Tips, below)
- Parchment paper
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter or margarine
- 1/2 cup pecans, chopped
- 1/2 cup dried apricots, chopped
- 1 tablespoon light brown sugar
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter or margarine
- 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate, chopped
- 4 large egg yolks
- 3/4 cup dry white wine
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/8 teaspoon chile powder
- 2 pints fresh raspberries
- Six mint sprigs
Poach pears
Cut a circle of parchment paper to fit inside mouth of a heavy large pot. Combine wine, sugar, vanilla bean, canela, anise seeds, and lemon zest in pot over medium heat. Cook, stirring, until sugar dissolves. Add pears and enough water to cover, 3 to 4 cups. Place parchment paper over pears to keep them submerged, and bring liquid to gentle simmer. Simmer until pears are just tender, about 12 minutes. Remove pears, discarding liquid, cool completely, and refrigerate until chilled.
Make stuffing
Melt butter or margarine in medium skillet over medium heat. Add pecans and cook, stirring, until lightly toasted, about 2 minutes. Add chopped apricots and cook, stirring, 1 minute more. Add brown sugar and cook mixture, stirring constantly, until light syrup develops, about 1 more minute. Remove from heat and cool.
Stuff pecan mixture into hollowed pears, packing tightly. Refrigerate until chilled.
Make chocolate sauce
Line baking sheet with parchment paper. Melt butter or margarine in small saucepan. Remove from heat and stir in chocolate.
Remove pears from refrigerator and dip into chocolate sauce, tilting and swirling pan to coat bottom half of each pear.
Place on parchment paper-lined baking sheet and refrigerate until chocolate is set.
Make sabayon
In metal bowl whisk together egg yolks, wine, sugar, and chile powder until well combined. Set bowl over saucepan of simmering water and cook mixture, whisking constantly, until foamy and thick enough that strokes leave a clear path, about 4 to 5 minutes. Remove bowl from over water.
To serve
Ladle sabayon into 6 shallow bowls. Place 1 pear in each bowl. Garnish with fresh mint and berries.
To core and hollow out the pears, start from the bottom: Cut out a small amount with a paring knife, then continue digging upward with an espresso spoon or melon baller until all of the core is removed.
Canela, also called true, Mexican, Ceylon, or Sri Lanka cinnamon, is a less pungent variety than the cassia cinnamon commonly used in the U.S.. It's available at www.adrianascaravan.com.
Santibañez recommends unsulfered, natural apricots for the stuffing and Valrhona semisweet (56 percent) chocolate for the sauce.
If you're serving the pears at a seder, look for kosher-for-Passover brown sugar, which does not contain cornstarch.

MASSENA - Proponents of building an interstate highway to connect I-81 in Clayton with I-87 in Rouses Point are planning a membership and fundraising drive.
Jason A. Clark, the organizational executive for the Northern Corridor Transportation Group, said proponents of the I-98 effort have kept a low profile over the past six to nine months, working behind the scenes on the internal structure of the organization.
There has been quite a bit of planning and advocacy work that has still been going on. Its time to get back in the public eye, Mr. Clark suggested.
The focus, according to Mr. Clark, is still on trying to educate the public on the importance of the project and to educate the folks in Albany about the importance of the project to our region.
He said the Northern Corridor Transportation Group has reorganized as a non-profit similar in status to business councils and chambers of commerce.
We want to be able to make sure our private business leaders are involved. It sends a much stronger message to our colleagues in Albany when the voices of our private sector leaders are showcased, according to Mr. Clark.
Pretty much most of the original folks are still involved. One of the goals of our membership drive is to bring people with new ideas into the fold as well. It will be an on-going effort. We will be spending a ton of time over the next three to four months on membership activities, he added.
While the group raised several thousand dollars from local governments and private groups a few years ago to promote their message, the latest effort is being done on a much smaller scale.
Mr. Clark said coin collection jugs will be placed at local businesses around the region over the next few weeks.
Your spare change will take us miles, the canister suggests.
He noted funds raised in the effort will be used to advocate for the I-98 corridor effort.
Mr. Clark suggested over 1,000 public officials - from mayors and supervisors to school board members - have already signed resolutions in support of I-98.
Our work, however, is not done. In spite of all the support that we have generated on the local, state and federal level, the New York state Department of Transportation has not yet committed to initiating the tiered environmental impact review that would serve as a starting point for the project, according to a recently completed brochure being distributed by the Northern Corridor Transportation Group.
In order to complete the work at hand, we need to ensure the ability to finance our public education campaign and our advocacy agenda. Your membership pledge will help us continue with this work, the brochure added, noting there are five major membership levels, with annual dues ranging from $250 per year to $5,000 or more per year.
Mr. Clark said the change canisters offer another option for individuals.
It allows everyone to participate at some level. At the end of the day, this is really about the future of the north country, he suggested.

Sailing is Cool!
Sailing is the ultimate freedom, the experience of being at one with nature and the sea, powered only by the wind and one's imagination. It's one of the few "life sports" that offers both a relaxing escape as well as an invigorating challenge. You pick your level of comfort and excitement. Sailing is never the same twice - each time on the water is a unique adventure that can enrich friendships, strengthen family ties, and refresh one's own sense of well-being. How many other outdoor activities can be shared with three family generations? It's been said there are two types of sailors in the world - the young and the young-at-heart. How great is that?
What a Difference a J Makes
Fulfilling those sailing dreams starts with finding a boat that fits you - whether you aspire to sail close to home, cruise to distant shores, or take up the challenge of competitive sailing. Performance differences between sailboats are greater than differences between golf clubs, tennis rackets, skis or cars. There aren't many wooden or metal tennis rackets, skis or golf clubs in use anymore. That's because newer designs that perform better and are easier to use are MORE FUN! A well designed sailboat, like a good sports car, is an extension of its owner. It could take years of sailing other boats to learn the difference that good design and quality make to one's sailing enjoyment. Or you can save time and take advantage of what we've learned and designed into every "J." We invite you to explore our site to learn more.
J/Sailing Gear For 2015
Look great this season in J sailing apparel. Check out the comfortable and fashionable sailing clothing, tech shirts, polo shirts, sailing jackets and sailing hats at the J/Sailing Gear site. Also backpacks, totes, J battleflags and other fun items like half-models are available as gifts and trophies.
J/Gear is fully customizable to your needs. When you order, you can specify just about anything you wish, including boat name, boat type, yacht club, hailing port, etc. Please be sure to visit our store here.

J/70 is the new Sailing Dimension
The J/70 speedster is the new "baby J" that is generating tremendous enthusiasm for a next-generation ramp- launchable keelboat. J/70 introduces a new dimension of fun, fast sailing in a stable, easy to own boat that all of your friends and family can enjoy. J/70's 22-foot long waterline with high aspect, all carbon mast and boom provides spirited performance and stability that feels like a much larger boat upwind. Off-the-wind, J/70 simply lights up the crew with a smile! Set the masthead asymmetrical spinnaker and plane away in moderate breezes.
J/70 sailing has taken the world by storm-- it's the fastest keelboat class to receive ISAF International Class status in history. 20+ fleets have developed in the USA alone, and Europe has fleets forming in nearly a dozen countries. Learn more about the J/70 concept here. Find out why J/70's are setting records for class participation at Key West Race Week (60 teams), Charleston Race Week (87 teams), North Americans (93 teams), World Championships (89 boats) and Europeans (41 boats)!
J/111 One-Design/ Offshore Speedster
2014 was another great season for J/111 one-design and offshore sailing around the world. With numerous events organized in Europe and in the USA, J/111 sailors enjoyed the camaraderie of sailing close, tactical racing around-the-buoys and in major offshore events. Highlights again included domination by J/111s in Chicago-Mackinac Race overall. J/111s hosted their 2014 North American Championships in Harbor Springs, Michigan in August and the Europeans and World Championship in Cowes, England. J/111's have established a remarkable sailing record offshore. Learn more about this versatile, easy-to-sail, offshore racer-cruiser and, more importantly, join in on the fun and set your sights on the best combination of offshore and one-design racing in the world's greatest sailing areas- Cowes, Newport, La Trinite, San Francisco, Great Lakes, Harbor Springs, to name a few. Find out more about the J/111 and the one-design sailing regatta schedule here.

By C.J. MCMANUSSun Advocate reporter
As fall weather changes the hue of trees in Carbon County, local hunters and campers gear up for outdoor recreational activities, during what some say is the best time of the year.
According to available information, one of the most beneficial aspects of fall camping is the lack of crowds that can be stifling at popular Utah destinations in the summer.
A second and maybe biggest benefit is the fact that, after Labor Day, many campgrounds reduce fees.
Although daytime temperatures are still warm in the fall, campers must take additional clothing and bedding for the cool evenings and nights as October rolls around.
As the seasons change, the weather patterns do so as well. Therefore, the Utah Department of Health cautions all campers to be prepared for severe weather during the fall. The department recommends taking gear that will ensure safety and warmth during the worst possible conditions.
Local residents should not assume that, because crowds have thinned out during the winter months, reservations are not necessary. Utah state parks staff recommends making reservations especially at state and national parks for all weekend camping.
With the arrival of colder weather, most insects have slowed down or died by October. And with continuing cases of West Nile virus reported in the summer, that fact makes fall camping much safer than its summer counterpart.
Cooking can be great during the fall months. According to campingearth.com, "Hearty Dutch oven beef stew, thick chunky chili and luscious warm fruit cobblers taste best when cooked and eaten outside when there's a little bit of a chill in the air."
Campingearth.com focused its list of fall advantages on food and produce, reporting that the bountiful fruit and vegetables available during the summer months are rivaled by fall fare which includes, "brilliant orange pumpkins, plump fall raspberries, crisp juicy apples, hearty potatoes, crunchy carrots and multiple varieties of squash along with the last of the ripe tomatoes."
In Utah as in many places in the west one of the main attractions of fall camping are the spectacular autumn colors.
According to the health department, "Utah parks put on a dazzling show of rich yellows, oranges and reds set against a backdrop of bright blue skies. And driving down a tree lined road that is a canopy of color or hiking a trail while leaves flutter down off trees can only happen during the fall."
The health department rendered the following information for some of Utah's more popular state parks:
Zion National Park, temperatures are a little more tolerable at Zion this time of year and crowds are typically smaller than in the summer months.
The average high temperature makes a huge drop from 91 degrees in September to 78 in October.
Fall colors usually start in September and peak in October.
Wasatch Mountain State Park, park staff encourages visitors to take in the colors while playing golf on one of the parks four courses.
The park includes 139 camping/picnicking areas. The park also offers ranger talks and special events for children during the fall months.
Boulder Mountain, the 8,200 foot elevation of Singletree camp can make for cool nights during the fall, according to park information.
However, Capitol Reef National Park and the distant Henry Mountains make Boulder Mountain a great fall destination. Other campgrounds in the park include Oak Creek, Pleasant Creek and Lower Bowns.
Monte Cristo, located 22 miles southwest of Woodruff on Utah State Highway 39, this 47 unit campground ranks among the best fall destinations along the Wasatch Mountains, according to park employees. The camp is located away from the highway and is ideal for a quiet camping destination. The staff also reports that the fall colors at Monte Cristo are remarkable.

Paul Soriano: Oblivion
Tuesday October 22
625 NW Everett St., No. 106
625 NW Everett St., No. 106
Paul Soriano departs from his serene portraiture in a new suite of oil paintings entitled Oblivion. There's nothing serene about these works, with their hyperkinetic undergirding of gestures, swarming underneath the paintings' surfaces like hornets. The works' subject matter also has a vespine sense of danger and agitation. In the imagery, Soriano confronts psychosexual demons he has never before explored in his exhibited work. The wild-haired figure in Shaman in the Twilight of his Days, the erect male nude in Lost (in the Valley of Pleasure) and the bare-assed youth confronted by clothed boys in At the Crossroad (Kill the Pig) all illuminate dark corners of the sexual psyche in a manner recalling the feverish erotic fantasias of painter Eric Fischl. Through Nov. 7.

Apple's Teenaged Nemesis Blows Its Big Reveal
Today in international tech news: An Australian teenager and serial Apple product leaker purports to have photos of an unreleased Apple fingerprint scanner. Also: New reports surface on the NSA's ability to conquer encryption; a Christian group is upset after an Australian political group retracts its pledge to block porn; and UK police are accused of losing evidence in a case involving rape and death threats levied over Twitter.
Sep 6, 2013 11:10 AM PT
Sonny Dickson, a teenager in Australia, leaked photos on his website purportedly showing an Apple fingerprint scanner. The photos were published less than one week before huge Apple events in California and China.
Dickson, whose roommates are Mom and Dad, has long leaked Apple product info on his website. This most recent get, however, might be his biggest yet.
The photos show a "home" button for an as-yet-unreleased iPhone that is equipped with a biometric fingerprint scanner. The teen claims to have five to 10 sources in China who obtain Apple prototypes from factory-line workers.
Apple declined to comment on Dickson and said that the company has never contacted him.
Another annoying nugget for Apple is a report from China Labor Watch that accuses the Jabil Circuit factory in Jiangsu province of engaging in gratuitous forced overtime, hoarding millions in unpaid wages and more.

Report: NSA Having No Problems With Encryption
The U.S. National Security Agency is using supercomputers, court orders, technical wizardry and "behind-the-scenes persuasion" to worm its way through tools designed to protect online communications, according to a lengthy report from The New York Times.
The NSA has reportedly found myriad ways to circumvent the encryption that (theoretically) protects global commerce, banking systems, trade secrets, medical records, Internet chats and all manner of computer-based info.
After being denied access in the 1990s to insert a back door into all encryption protection, the NSA invested billions in a "clandestine" campaign to beat encryption tools.
The documents the Times used to compile its report also say that the UK's Government Communications Headquarters successfully teamed with the NSA to find entry points to access data from Google, Facebook, Yahoo and Hotmail.

Flip-Flop on Adult-Content Filter Irks Christian Group
The Australian Christian Lobby has expressed concern over the Coalition's decision to abandon its plans to impose an automatic Internet filter for adult content.
The Coalition is a group of right-leaning parties in Australia that is holding a national election Saturday. They pulled a last-minute about-face Friday by declaring that they had shelved plans to implement a UK-style automatic filtering of adult content.
This disappointed the Christian Lobby, a group that claims to have tens of thousands of members. Having lobbied for the smut-blocking filter, Christian Lobby Managing Director Lyle Shelton said that the Coalition should reconsider its decision and lamented the fact that, "for a fleeting moment," it seemed as though the Coalition would do the right thing.

Plaintiff Claims Police Lost Evidence in Twitter Threat Case
UK police lost evidence in a high-profile case of death and rape threats lofted via Twitter, according to the victim, feminist campaigner Caroline Criado-Perez.
Criado-Perez discussed the suspected flub on Twitter, saying that "loads of screencaps" had gone missing. She also said that she was again receiving rape threats, and that police were dealing with it in an "achingly slow" manner.
A law enforcement spokesman said that they had been trying to contact Criado-Perez to discuss their approach to the case and "the issues that she is raising on social network sites." The spokesman did not seem to confirm or deny that any evidence had been lost.

LINCOLN — The Lincoln All-Stars have dominated pool play the first three games of the season, outscoring their rivals by a 31-1 margin.
When his unbeaten squad finishes up its slate in Pool A on Saturday night, Lincoln coach Matt Netto isn't expecting similar results against equally-unbeaten Smithfield (3-0) at Randy Hien Memorial Field.
The matchup, postponed from its original day of Friday due to the threat of thunderstorms, is the first time that the two squads have met since Smithfield knocked out then-undefeated Lincoln, 3-2, in seven innings in last year's crossover semifinal contest.
"It's going to be a challenge," Netto said. "They are 3-0 just like us and beating teams similar to the way we have been beating teams."
Although it has only one returning player from 2010 [Zack Pipa], Lincoln fields a team that Netto feels is nearly identical to last year's squad. Lincoln has a team batting average of .464 and a defense that has committed no errors in its first three games. The pitching, led by dual aces Connor Sheehan and Nathan Fay, has also been outstanding as evident by the one run its allowed.
"This team doesn't hit home runs like last year's team, but with the new restrictions on bats neither are most of the other teams," Netto said. "But this is a very similar team. We have one 11-year-old and the rest are 12-year-olds, just like last year. We are very strong and deep pitching with two aces that probably throw harder than [our aces] last year."
Sheehan and Fay have done the bulk of the work on the mound for Lincoln with reliable hurler Noah Duquette also showing promise. Sheehan's and Duquette's last name should sound familiar to anyone who followed the 2009 squad that captured the district and state titles and was one win away in Bristol, Conn., from making it to the Williamsport for the Little League World Series. The two pitchers are the younger brothers of star players from that team - Jeff Sheehan and Tyler Duquette.
"We have strong pitching and they have learned how to pitch as opposed to just throwing hard," Netto said. "They are learning different situations and really refining the skills of pitching."
With the game being pushed another day, Netto is still unsure who he will send to the mound for Saturday's game. Little League rules states that if it's only three days between games, a pitcher cannot exceed 50 pitches if he is going to play the next game.
"I am kind of figuring [who I'll pitch] right now," said the second-year Lincoln coach, a former player for the town's All-Star squad. "It's going to be interesting. I might have to use as many pitchers as I can."
Offensively, Lincoln has hit just three home runs with Fay going yard once and Alex Levin belting two. But the talented locals have a solid lineup from top to bottom. Pipa occupies the leadoff spot. He's followed by Sheehan, Fay and Duquette for the key first four slots. Sixth man Nick Juckett and Sheehan lead the bats with averages hovering in the .700-range.
"We don't hit the towering home runs but we hit a lot of line drives and we do some smart base-running," Netto said. "We do what it takes to get on base. They are all so dedicated and really study the game, especially hitting. They are very disciplined."
Lincoln, which gave up its only run in its lone non-mercy rule affair - a 9-1 trouncing of Scituate-Foster - has been perfect defensively. Netto credits catcher Patrick Fanning as the leader in that category.
"He is the one person responsible," he said. "He has been a complete wall at the plate. He has been the team sparkplug."
In their semifinal game last year, Smithfield pitcher Mike Mecera was the star, not only with his arm but his bat. His home run in the seventh inning was the difference in the close extra-inning verdict.
"They were just better than us that day," Netto said. "We were taken off guard. We have no excuses."
Netto has had a chance to watch Smithfield a couple of times this summer and knows his team is in for a battle on Saturday.
"They have seven 11-year-olds from last year," he said. "They are very experienced and very solid defensively. They are not going to make many errors. They are extremely well-coached…It will be fun to watch."
The winner of tomorrow's contest plays Cumberland National (second-place in Pool B) in Tuesday's semifinal at 6 p.m. at Hien Field. The loser will take on first-place Pool B winner Cumberland American at 8 p.m., also on Tuesday.

(NBC) - Defense Department furloughs will begin in late April unless congress does something to avoid automatic spending cuts set to take place next week.
That could have a major effect on communities that surround and support military bases.
"What we're really concerned about is how it will affect the families that we serve," says Trinity Dovovan of Chandler, Arizona's Chandler Christian Community Center.
Donovan worries about filling hundreds of food boxes for the needy.
Car salesman Mike Braswell is concerned about the 1,200 civilian workers facing furloughs at nearby Luke Air Force Base.
"80 percent of our business is from our military here at Luke," Braswell says. "It's vital. It hurts everybody."
Mesa, Arizona Mayor Scott Smith is wary of Washington's ax hitting his fire department.
Phoenix Fire is alarmed it might lose federal money for dozens of positions as well.
The impact of automatic spending cuts on defense is getting much of the attention.
Studies rank Arizona among the top ten states that would be hit hardest.
40,000 jobs at defense contractors are at risk in the state, and 3,000 civilian military employees face furloughs and the loss of one-month's pay.
The biggest unknown is if what will Congress will be able to stop the cuts within the next few days.

D-Backs in active discussions to trade Justin Upton
"The Diamondbacks are most interested in a shortstop, a third baseman and pitching," according to CBSSports.com's Jon Heyman, who says there is lots of buzz at the GM Meetings that Arizona could soon trade OF Justin Upton.
Also reporting from the GM Meetings, the New York Post's Joel Sherman says, 'there is a strong feeling Upton will be traded,' with the Rangers seemingly the front runner.
10:54 pm: In addition to the Yankees, Red Sox, Indians and Braves, Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic says four new teams have been added to Upton's no-trade list, although they have not been specified publicly.
However, in a separate tweet, Piecoro says Diamondbacks GM Kevin Towers will still talk with those teams on Upton's no-trade list, and has in fact already talked with one of those four new teams.

By JIM HIGHTOWER Otherwords
The critter's name is Representative Stephen Fincher. He's a millionaire, agribusiness operator, gospel singer, and tea party Republican who was elected to Congress in 2010 from the greater metropolitan area of Frog Jump, Tennessee.
Declaring "limited government" to be his priority, the 40-year-old right-winger recently jumped all over the food stamp budget, demanding that $20 billion (and two million poverty-stricken families) be chopped out of the program.
In his attack, Fincher cited an odd moral source to rationalize his minginess toward "The one who is unwilling to work shall not eat," declared the Bible-thumping budget-whacker, quoting the Book of Thessalonians. Of course, several passages in the Bible depict Jesus teaching an exact opposite moral code - indeed, a heavenly duty of generosity toward the poor. But Fincher the Austerian was not about to let Jesus trump the tea party's small-government dogma.
"We have to remember," the Frog Jumper lectured, that "this is other people's money that Washington is appropriating and spending."
Piously put, sir. But then, the Critter from Frog Jump suddenly leapt to another budgetary lily pad. Now, the "limited government" ideologue became a croaking free-spender.
Guess what he's demanding? A $9 billion increase in a taxpayer subsidy program that protects the income of a few agribusiness outfits like his.
In fact, Fincher is the second-largest recipient of farm subsidies in Congress, having taken at least $3.5 million in "other people's money" in the past dozen years.

POTSDAM - Clarkson Universitys eighth Digital Arts & Sciences Senior Exhibition will take place on May 10 and 11 in the new Digital Arts Studios in the basement of Bertrand H. Snell Hall (#16 on map at http://www.clarkson.edu/about/map.html ).
The exhibition showcases the ambitious capstone projects of the 2013 graduating class of digital arts & sciences majors.
The show is free and open to public from noon to 6 p.m. May 10 and from 9-11 a.m. May 11.
An opening reception for the artists and public will take place on Friday, May 10, from 4-6 p.m. Refreshments will be served.
As the final culmination of the challenging digital arts & sciences curriculum, this years exhibition highlights the diverse and interdisciplinary nature of the program by encompassing a wide range of creative approaches to digital media including 2D and 3D animation, 2D and 3D design, character design, sustainable design, and interactive projects
The following projects will be shown:
■ MK Carr of Queensbury has developed a mobile web application that functions as an interactive childrens storybook designed for parents with children on the threshold of being able to read independently. As parents read to their children, the interactive features of the application create an engaging and rewarding experience for the child, promoting reading skills. Carr has a strong background in web design and development and has worked extensively with various web languages across a multitude of projects. This particular project allowed Carr to test her skills, both as a web developer and a digital artist, while creating an app that would be fun and engaging for young readers. See an image at http://www.clarkson.edu/news/das2013/MK_Carr.jpg.
■ Alex Christiansen of Potsdam has created two, contrasting 3D virtual environments based upon the ideas of utopian and dystopian futures. As a digital artist, Christiansens primary focus is on 3D digital design. Using his impressive talents in both 3D modeling and texturing, this project explores the fears and hopes that accompany different visions of the future. See an image at http://www.clarkson.edu/news/das2013/Alex_Christiansen.jpg.
■ Colleen Daly of Syracuse created two captivating digital images using digital 3D modeling and texturing. Her project presents a lion and a wolf as archetypal representations of the sun and the moon. Daly is pursuing a career in the film or gaming industry as a 3D artist. See an image at http://www.clarkson.edu/news/das2013/Colleen_Daly.jpg.
■ Carly Gardner of North Bangor combines her background in digital 2D art and mastery of 3D modeling to present a short animation based on the intriguing and enduring tale of the Pied Piper of Hamelin. Her animation features a stylized visual world inspired by her love of animated cartoons. See an image at http://www.clarkson.edu/news/das2013/Carly_Gardner.jpg.
■ Brandon Godfrey of Ruby presents an action-packed 3D animation. Godfrey uses his character animation skills to evoke emotions through realistic and engaging movements. This project allowed him to hone key principles of animation while also giving him the opportunity to expand his skill set by tackling new challenges within 3D digital art, such as particle effects and advanced rendering techniques. Godfrey aims to create emotional connections between his digital characters and the audience. See an image at http://www.clarkson.edu/news/das2013/Brandon_Godfrey.jpg.
■ Jazmyn Haywood of Rochester uses 3D digital designs and simulations to address real-world problems. Working closely with the director of Clarksons Fitness Center as well as getting feedback from regular users, Haywoods Deneka Family Fitness Center Redesign Project offered a major redesign that aimed to improve the functionality, aesthetics and general layout of the current gym lounge area. Haywood used this project as a way to showcase her skills in 3D modeling and interest in Interior Design. She hopes the project will be of assistance for redesigning the Deneka Family Fitness Center in the future. See an image at http://www.clarkson.edu/news/das2013/Jazmyn_Haywood.jpg.
■ Casey Lupini of Berlin, Conn., combined her background as both a digital arts and sciences major and an environmental engineering major to design a two-person residential cabin that meets LEED certification and utilizes renewable energy in order to be grid independent. Using her digital 3D design skills, Lupini created compelling animated visualizations of the cabin that help promote energy efficiency while illustrating that green living doesnt necessitate small or ultra-modern living spaces, and can easily encompass the common, daily essentials we take for granted. See an image at http://www.clarkson.edu/news/das2013/Casey_Lupini.jpg.
■ Emily Metruck of Oneida researched and developed a logo and package design for the newly developed company, Route 58 Popcorn in collaboration with Clarksons Shipley Center for Innovation. This project allowed Metruck to not only put her 2D and 3D artistic skills to use but also to experience working with a real client as an industrial and graphic designer. Metruck is a digital arts and sciences major with minors in mathematics, project management and business administration. She has been accepted into the graduate program at University of Wisconsin-Stout for Industrial Design, but is also keeping her options open with various employment opportunities. See an image at http://www.clarkson.edu/news/das2013/Emily_Metruck.jpg.
Nathan Skillings of Woolwich, Maine, has created a series of five polygonal models inspired by the characters in Peter V. Bretts Demon Cycle book series. His goal for this project was to construct fully formed, imaginary creatures using the digital 3D software application Autodesk Maya. Each model showcases optimized 3D design principles for usability and modularity, as well as giving each character its own unique physical features and characteristics. See an image at http://www.clarkson.edu/news/das2013/Nate_Skillings.jpg.
■ Jessica Stanulevich of Whitesboro continues to explore the connections between art and technology in a final project that fully harnesses her background as a digital arts & sciences and Mathematics major, and computer science minor. Stanulevich created elaborate digital 3D figures using Autodesk Maya and Pixologic Zbrush. Rather than then present these as a predefined animation sequence, viewers have the ability to interact and move around the virtual space surrounding the figures and immerse themselves in an alternate environment. As they navigate around the 3D models, a story unfolds. See an image at http://www.clarkson.edu/news/das2013/Jessica_Stanulevich.jpg.
■ Matthew Thurston of Whitesboro presents a unique world of conflicting forces through his 3D animation D.I.R.E. This project showcases Thurstons experimental as well as technical approach to his digital 3D art practice by incorporating ambitious multi-character interactions and technical elements. Experience the struggle in D.I.R.E. See an image at http://www.clarkson.edu/news/das2013/Matt_Thurston.jpg.
■ Focusing on an experimental visual storytelling, Caitlin Walsh of Rochester presents Bottle Sounds, an animation that explores the role of imagination in understanding and coping with the world around us. Walsh is interested in visual communication and using imagery to convey ideas and emotions. Her animation follows a young girl trying to make sense of the conflict between her daydreams and reality. See an image at http://www.clarkson.edu/news/das2013/Caitlin_Walsh.jpg.
■ John Warzala of Schenectady designed Storyline, a writing software application that offers scriptwriters an innovative approach to story development. While looking at the current offering of professional writing applications, he noticed very few offered a work environment that caters to the non-linear, creative process of actual story development. Warzala envisioned an intuitive, visual interface that worked on a timeline rather than a static continuous page. Users will always have a birds eye view of the whole story right in front of them. The software is highly flexible and easily customizable in order to cater to the chaotic nature of story writing. Warzala conceived the programs capabilities from scratch. Warzala will present a proof of concept, animated visualization that illustrates the user experience and its core functionalities. See an image at http://www.clarkson.edu/news/das2013/John_Warzala.jpg.

A mix of unexpected joy from a prairie trombone and a Finnish folk band playing AC/DC paired with a sage Nobel Prize-winning Bengali, a nonagenarian from Boston, and columnists Parker and Courtney. Quite swath of things to think about and carry into the week.
As part of a conversation with the Church of Ireland about the question of human sexuality, our special contributor confesses his "gay agenda": to love the gospels; to love repentance; to love words and courage and my partner; and to show love to each other on our great endeavor.
In his interview with Krista Tippett, the Brazilian novelist Paulo Coelho surprised us by recalling Krista's 2010 TED talk at the United Nations. It is in wrestling with ourselves and our contradictions, he says, that we uncover the breeding grounds of compassion.

What is the base of your irrigation system?
Order within 0hrs 0mins for same-day shipping!
*Not available with backorder/drop-ship items. See Shipping Policy
Want it all? Gorgeous turf, advanced programming capability, and an intuitive interface? Meet the I-Core. Designed for demanding commercial and high-end residential applications, the full-featured I-Core controller is easy to use, easy to install, and easy to program, with a variety of new features that will redefine irrigation intelligence.
Modular means more options. And more options mean an easy install. The I-Core plastic is expandable from 6 to 30 stations and the metal is expandable to 42, for a broad range of choices to meet all of your customers' needs.
I-Core's real-time flow monitoring capability provides overflow protection and flow totaling to minimize the potential for water waste.
Real-time flow sensing will identify a system's low flow or overflow conditions instantaneously, before resulting damage (to either the system or surrounding landscape) can occur. The user determines the threshold for what will be recognized as a "highest flow rate" and "lowest flow rate" by station. In turn, the controller will calibrate itself automatically to identify any flow below or above these pre-determined limits to be an incorrect flow condition. When the limits are exceeded, the I-Core shuts off that part of the system. To bring real-time flow sensing to the I-Core, simply add the HFS flow sensor and the corresponding FCT sensor body your piping requires.

By Jeff ManleyPrice
In my entire life I have only written one letter to the editor. This will be my second, because I feel so strongly about the issue of legal immigration.
There is not an American alive today whose family tree does not include an "immigrant". My family tree stretches back to Ireland, England, Hungary and Germany. When my great grandparents landed in America at Ellis Island, they had to do what was expected at the time to become an American citizen. That is all I expect of any immigrant, be they Irish, Hispanic, Hungarian or Italian. All I expect is for them to do what my family members did-immigrate legally.
Teddy Roosevelt said it best in 1903: "In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag...We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language..And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."
I do not think it gets any plainer than that. If you are going to be an American, be an American and become an American legally or go home. Honor your personal heritage, but become an American through and through.

By PATSY STODDARDEmery Progress Editor
Immigration has been a hot topic lately and Emery County has its own immigration story which has become a nightmare for the Sah family of Green River. They have been ordered to leave America by July 1.
Ken Sah is from India and has been in America for 16 years. He came to the United States as a student in 1990.He studied and graduated with a degree in aviation-engineering from a college in Oakland, Calif.
"I looked at America as the land of opportunity," he said. "I liked it here. I liked the history of the country. I decided to stay. I applied for an asylum in 1991 while still in college. I was already married to my wife Sarita, but there were those that said if I married an American I could stay. But, I couldn't do that because I was already married."
Sah said it took 10 years before he had a court hearing on staying in this country.
"What can you do? In 10 years time I had to work and earn a living. We worked hard night and day until I had $100,000 saved to put on a down payment on a motel in Green River," he stated.
He and his wife came to Green River in 1997 and purchased the Budget Inn, which he operated for a long time with no help.
"In 2001, we built a new hotel, the Ramada Inn. We are also co-owners of another motel in North Carolina," he stated.
"Ten years is a long time to wait for a hearing If it could have been decided in a couple of years that would have been better," said Sah. "But 10 years? We have built a life in America. Now they have denied my asylum. They said I could go back to India."
Sah is very concerned about his son, Kunal, who is an American citizen.
"He was born in Oakland in 1993. He has never known any place but America," states Sah.
"My lawyer appealed my case to a higher court but it was denied. I am now at the end of all the administrative avenues. I have no place else to go. I have sent faxes and emails to Pres. Bush at the White House. I have had no response."
He says he has been working with Senator Bennetts office to help him.
"I would need special legislation written now just for my case. The politicians seem unwilling to do that. The president could also offer me asylum. I just can't get a hold of anyone to help us," he says. "Everywhere I have met a dead end. We have been scared for the last five years. My wife, Sarita, cries every day. I try to console her, but I feel terrible, too. If I had done anything wrong it would be different. But for the past 16 years I have been involved economically in the country. I have a social security number and have been paying taxes."
Sah says he has written to Governor Huntsman but that the state office tells him it is a federal issue.
"I have seen on the TV where Gov. Huntsman adopted a baby from India. He is a nice man and has saved a child's life. But, what about me? What about my son? Could the governor try to help me? I need someone to lead me to the resources who could help."
Sah says that a couple of weeks ago the immigration department came and took the families passports away.
"They said we can have them back when we have of the country."
He says because of their situation there would be a 10 year ban before they could reenter the United States.
"My son Kunal doesn't want to leave. He doesn't know India. His life is here. He is an American."
Kunal Sah recently won the regional spelling bee run by Scripts and sponsored by the Sun Advocate/Emery County Progress.
"My son is a very intelligent boy. He is a good student," said Sah. "He will be competing in Washington D.C. on May 31 and June 1. While we are in Washington, I hope I can contact our senators or congressman for an appointment to tell my story and get some help so we don't have to leave. At first the political people were very hopeful and positive with me, but lately they have just said they are unable to help and I have been left completely alone."
Sah says he has not slept well for the last five years. But he still is positive about what could happen.
"I still feel that something good should happen. We don't deserve this. This shouldn't be happening to us."
Local people have been supportive of the Sah family by sending letters to politicians and officials. Local officials have also tried to help, but so far to no avail.
"I have tried to keep a positive attitude through all of this. I have had a work permit all these years and have always been legal. I have not been illegal and if I leave by June 30, I will be OK and not arrested. It is sad that someone like me who has been here so long is being forced to leave. I have trusted in the rules and regulations and tried to do everything right. It is harder that way, there are many who look for loopholes in the system. After 16 years, I am still trusting the system."
The family is occupied full time at the motel especially during the summer months. But, sometimes when it's slow during the winter the family gets away for some family time.
"Kunal is an American kid, we took him to Florida to Walt Disney World," stated Sah.

FF Meta Correspondence supports 167 different languages such as Spanish, English, Portuguese, Russian, German, French and Greek in Latin, Cyrillic, and Greek scripts. (Please note that not all languages are available for all formats.)
Erik Spiekermann's best-known face is without doubt FF Meta. Whilst it has proven its usability in almost any design task one can think of, its creator realized that it could be even more improved for use in the business world. The main features of the first version of FF Meta Correspondence included tabular figures (instead of oldstyle ones) and increased tracking, yet Spiekermann wanted to go a few steps further and take the typeface to another level.
In 2012, Erik Spiekermann and the FontFont team changed both proportions and shapes to a more robust style (e.g. in Q, I, i, j, y), removed contrast from accents (e.g. in Á, î, Ž, Ç) and simplified forms and details to a more screen-friendly appearance (e.g. in 4, T, E, v, !, N, f, z). The very well-known lowercase g has been changed to a single-storey one, which is more common within the office environment. The original one remains accessible in the upright weights via the OpenType feature Stylistic Alternates. Above all, a massive set of useful arrows, icons, and office dingbats was added. The resulting design is still FF Meta, but one that breathes Correspondence air.
The simplified forms and the high-quality screen optimization of the FontFont Type Department make FF Meta Correspondence a perfect typeface for the use as webfont or within the mobile environment.
