Recent UNT graduate among 160 finalists in U.S. for Marshall Scholarship
DENTON (UNT), Texas -- Marcelo Ostria, a recent graduate of the University of North Texas, is one of 160 finalists in the U.S for 2012 Marshall Scholarships.
Considered to be among most prestigious postgraduate scholarships available to Americans who have recently received bachelor's degrees, the Marshall Scholarships fund two full years of study at any university in the United Kingdom. The scholarships vary in amount and cover university fees and living expenses, as well as provide funds for books, thesis study and research, and travel to and from the United Kingdom. No more than 40 applicants are selected for the scholarships each year.
Applicants for the Marshall Scholarships cannot have received their first undergraduate degrees from U.S. colleges and universities more than two years before applying, and must have received their degrees with grade point averages of 3.7 or higher. Nearly 1,000 students applied for the scholarships in 2010, with those selected representing approximately 4 percent of the applicants.
Twenty Marshall finalists are each selected from eight regions in October and interview with their region's selection committee in November. The finalists are assigned to a regional committee by the location of their hometowns.
Marshall Scholarship winners are selected for their potential to excel as scholars and leaders and as contributors to improved understanding between the U.S. and the United Kingdom.
Ostria, an Honors College student at UNT, received his bachelor's degree in international studies this past May, after receiving his bachelor's degree in political science in December 2010. He will interview for the Marshall Scholarship Nov. 7 before the Houston regional committee, which conducts interviews with finalists from Louisiana, Nevada, New Mexico and Oklahoma as well as Texas.
In applying for the scholarship, Ostria received guidance from UNT's Marshall Scholarship Nominating and Mentoring Committee. Committee members are James Duban, director of UNT's Office for Nationally Competitive Scholarships; Amyn Amlani, associate professor of speech and hearing sciences; Edra Bogle, retired professor of English; Marjorie Hayes, associate professor of dance and theatre; Trent Petrie, professor of psychology; Tom Sovik, professor of music; and Lewis Taylor, Regents Professor of management.
Duban said Ostria being named a finalist "is an immense honor for both Marcelo and for UNT."
"Only a small fraction of the nation's very best students ever make it to the finalist stage of Marshall Scholarship competition. That accomplishment speaks volumes about Marcelo, about his humanitarian outreach, and about the quality of his UNT education," Duban said.
Ostria is the son of Adenie Ostria of Flower Mound and Marcelo Ostria Trigo of Santa Cruz, Bolivia, and a 2005 graduate of Flower Mound High School. He plans to study at Oxford University if he receives the scholarship, enrolling in the master's degree program in comparative social policy to prepare for an executive position with UNICEF or another organization that works with governments to create social policies that benefit people in need. Ostria said Oxford's Department of Social Policy and Intervention, which offers the degree, "regularly sponsors research on topics that have immense appeal for me, including poverty and the disadvantaged, social policy in developing countries, child development and government exclusion."
Ostria has been an active volunteer with UNICEF. As a UNT student, he established and directed the campus UNICEF chapter, which raised more than $25,000 for UNICEF's campaign against preventable childhood diseases. Ostria received the President's Volunteer Service Award from the White House two years in a row and was named to the UNICEF Campus Initiative National Council and as co-coordinator of the 2009 UNICEF Leadership Summit for campus chapters.
He is the founding and chief editor of "The Child Survival Journal," which gives college and university students awareness and academic perspectives on child development issues in certain nations. The journal is on the website of the Roosevelt Institute Campus Network, a national organization that engages college and university students in activism that empowers them as leaders.
From August 2010 until this summer, Ostria studied at Universidad Alberto Hurtado in Santiago, Chile, as a Rotary Ambassadorial Scholar. He conducted research on child labor and poverty in Chile and Bolivia, and worked with a Chilean and a Texas Rotary Club chapter to initiate a $30,000 grant that will construct an English learning laboratory at an earthquake-damaged school south of Santiago.

"ZURICH OR DAVOS?" Top 5 Page for this destination Zürich by Toyin
Zürich Travel Guide: 1,927 reviews and 5,748 photos
When I left Paris for Zurich, I know that I will only be transiting, and that the objective area would be Davos, a delightful but diverse holiday, sport, congress, health, reserch and culture resort rolled into one. I must say, though, that I have better logistics, and supports that is unprecedented for this trip. Also, I had very little sleep so as to bring to VT a presentation that would be attractive to would be visitors. When a VT friend asked me "How is Davos" I said, "It is perhaps the most beautiful place on Earth". This statement is open to lots of debate, but in winter, Newport; Rhode Island in USA used to be my favourite town. However all this perception changed in Davos. Welcome to a paradise of snow, welcome to Davos.
A paradise for snow sport fans. The two well known winter – Ski resorts Davos and Klosters consist of 5 mountains forming one big snow sport region. These winter-sport areas are situated between 1124 and 2844 meters above sea level and offer more than 300km of prepared pistes of all grades of difficulty. Davos offers you the perfect situation for an active vacation in a wonderful landscape.
Already 49 times, the parliamentariens of Switzerland and Great Britain meet in Davos for their Ski week. Parsenn (Davos & Klosters), Jakobshorn, Rinerhorn, Pischa and Madrisa. All grades of pistes, long descents of 12km, friendly, family areas, floodlit sledge run and ski-pistes, modern transport and a uniform price structure makes Davos a suitable region for sport fan. Year after year, Davos is scene of the international competition and world cup races on speed skating. Davos has still one of the fastest open air ice-fields of the world. Davos has remain Europes largest natural ice rink!
- Pros:Delightfully Diverse
- Cons:Expensive
- In a nutshell:Most beautiful place on Earth

Another study on the biomechanics of drinking in laying hens from the Journal Zoomorphology in 1992** shows clearly that hens develop different body movements to drink from different sources of water, such as drinking droplets (such as found on a nipple drinker), or by immersing the beak and scooping water (as would happen in open drinkers). They found that developing these behaviors was not difficult or unnatural for birds, since they regularly will drink water that is suspended on leaves or blades of grass.
Basically, as long as you do not let your hens run out of water and make sure they are aware of the water source both nipple drinkers and open waterers provide plenty of water availability. You need to have about 3" of open waterer space per hen as a minimum and 1 nipple per 9 hens, again as a minimum.
The advantage of a nipple system is that it is quite resistant to bacterial growth, unlike the septic soup that most open waterers quickly become. I cannot recommend strongly enough that backyard chicken keepers consider using a nipple watering system for their hens, if it is practical to do so.
Make sure your hens get used to drinking out of nipples before you remove the open waterers, but once they are accustomed to drinking from nipples, they will be at far less risk of disease. Think of it this way....in third world countries, the most significant health improvements are gained when a village is able to drink water from a contained system such as a well, rather than from an open system such as a river or pond....your hens will respond similarly.
A: Birds of different heights can all use The Chicken Fountain. Just take some bricks, wood, stones and put them under a couple of the nipples to allow the smaller birds to step up to access the nipples.
Q: How do I clean TCF?
A: I have had my fountain installed for over 2 years now and have never had to clean it. Our system turns the water at a high rate so water never sits stagnant in it. If you really wanted to clean it we recommend that you disconnect the water line open the access cap and dump the water out. Then take a light solution of bleach water and fully swish it around the fountain. Remove all of the cleaning solution and flush, flush, flush until there is no hint of a smell from the cleaner. Hook it back up and you are good to go...But again we have never had to clean out our unit in over 2 years!
Q: Will the nipples freeze up? Can the PVC crack?
A: An optional heater system is available that that will keep the water at 41°F and neither the water nor the nipples will freeze. Use common sense in installing your unit and don't place it where it will be buried in snow drifts or constantly subjected to high, freezing winds.
Because we have a semi sealed system, not a closed system, if the water should ever freeze it has room to expand in the unit. In other systems or in homemade dripper systems, the freezing water has no room to expand and the result is a cracked system.
Q: How big a unit will I need/ how many chickens do you recommend per nipple?
A: We recommend a maximum of 3 or 4 birds per nipple. We sell three different size units, our Mini system handles up to 6 birds our Standard system handles up to 16 birds and our Mega system handles 40+ birds.

By the time Grupo Financiero Banorte By the time Grupo
Financiero Banorte and Ixe Grupo Financiero merged in November
2010, the Mexican financial sector was already dominated by
foreign banks. Banorte was the fourth largest bank in the
system by assets and Ixe, a financial institution catering to
the well-off, was eighth in that scale – two smaller
players amid titans. Spanish-owned BBVA Bancomer occupied the
top slot and the Citigroup-owned Banamex followed closely
behind, each with more than $88 billion in assets, almost twice
the size of Banorte. So the $1.3 billion deal that Ixe and

Poverty Eradication Group
Isha is requesting a loan to buy cooking utensils and raw foods and sodas for the restaurant. She is a member of a loan group, which, as their name suggests, is geared toward eradicating poverty in their households. Despite challenges, Isha is determined to change the future of her family. In this photo, Isha is seated second seated from the right. Only 11 of the 13 group members are pictured because two members were absent with apology from the group meeting although the did sign the waiver form.
Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

I usually keep it on like one channel and no one complains, so I just leave it. Now that I think about it music isn't all that important when I'm driving, unless I'm by myself. Most of the time I'm with someone and we'll be talking so the radio will be turned down anyways. When I'm by myself though, good music is just anything I like.

|Article Title:
|Immune evasion of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus through glycan shielding involves both glycoprotein 5 as well as glycoprotein 3.
|Reference Detail
|Reference ID:
|Passive administration of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) neutralizing antibodies (NAbs) can effectively protect pigs against PRRSV infection. However, after PRRSV infection, pigs typically develop a weak and deferred NAb response. One major reason for such a meager NAb response is the phenomenon of glycan shielding involving GP5, a major glycoprotein carrying one major neutralizing epitope. We describe here a type II PRRSV field isolate (PRRSV-01) that is highly susceptible to neutralization and induces an atypically rapid, robust NAb response in vivo. Sequence analysis shows that PRRSV-01 lacks two N-glycosylation sites, normally present in wild-type (wt) PRRSV strains, in two of its envelope glycoproteins, one in GP3 (position 131) and the other in GP5 (position 51). To determine the influence of these missing N-glycosylation sites on the distinct neutralization phenotype of PRRSV-01, a chimeric virus (FL01) was generated by replacing the structural genes of type II PRRSV strain FL12 cDNA infectious clone with those from PRRSV-01. N-glycosylation sites were reintroduced into GP3 and GP5 of FL01, separately or in combination, by site-directed mutagenesis. Reintroduction of the N-glycosylation site in either GP3 or GP5 allowed recovery of in vivo and in vitro glycan shielding capacity, with an additive effect when these sites were reintroduced into both glycoproteins simultaneously. Although the loss of these glycosylation sites has seemingly occurred naturally (presumably by passage through cell cultures), PRRSV-01 virus quickly regains these glycosylation sites through replication in vivo, suggesting that a strong selective pressure is exerted at these sites. Collectively, our data demonstrate the involvement of an N-glycan moiety located in GP3 in glycan shield interference.

Sprint's network still includes working Huawei equipment despite the carrier's 2013 vow to remove or destroy gear from the Chinese company, according to a LightReading report.
Sprint went ahead and shut down its mobile WiMAX network on Friday except in the markets around the country where it was ordered by a judge in Massachusetts to keep it running for two nonprofit groups that are locked in a contract dispute with the carrier. Meanwhile, Sprint disclosed it will incur as much as $225 million in costs related to the shutdown of Clearwire's legacy WiMAX network.
A state judge in Massachusetts delayed Sprint's plans to shut down Clearwire's legacy mobile WiMAX network in 75 cities across the country by 90 days. In doing so, the judge sided with two nonprofits that had sued the carrier, alleging that Sprint violated their contract by pushing them to accept LTE service that would have throttled their customers' speeds after 6 GB of data usage.
Sprint plans to shutter tomorrow the mobile WiMAX network it inherited when it bought Clearwire in 2013, and the carrier said only a small percentage of customers remain on the WiMAX network after a long campaign by Sprint to get customers to switch to its LTE network.
For the last couple of years, some have viewed Sprint as the Rodney Dangerfield of wireless. Indeed, the carrier has seen mostly negative press and perception ranging from subscriber losses to poor network execution to unfortunate technology selection, to M&A problems, and the list goes on. Add in a negative macroeconomic environment, unprecedented competition and some bad luck contributed to keeping Sprint down. Here's how I think Sprint got to its "no respect" predicament.
Sprint has been talking about the unique benefits of its 2.5 GHz spectrum for years--first when its partner Clearwire owned it, and then after Sprint bought Clearwire. They're still talking about how it's a differentiator. Yet unless and until Sprint fully takes advantage of that spectrum, I don't see it making meaningful market share gains or standing out from its competitors.
CableLabs wants to use Clearwire's 2.5 GHz spectrum to test how LTE-Unlicensed (LTE-U) and Licensed Assisted Access (LAA) co-exist with Wi-Fi networks.
Sprint confirmed it will shut off service on its mobile WIMAX network on or around Nov. 6, 2015, giving further clarity on its network evolution.
How did the wireless industry perform in the third quarter of 2014? Check here throughout the third-quarter earnings report season for full earnings reports from the wireless industry's carriers, handset makers, equipment suppliers and others.
Karma, an MVNO that rewards customers with additional data when they share their hotspot connection with others, is launching its first LTE hotspot, called Karma Go, on Sprint's tri-band LTE network. The company previously only offered service on Sprint's WiMAX network.

The Voice
Is The Voice New Tonight, Nov. 12, 2012?
The competition is heating up on The Voice Season 3, and tonight, the live rounds are in full swing.
The Top 12 contestants will be flying solo this week, and all of them will need to step up their game in order to advance in the competition. With this season's new format, teams could be uneven going into the final rounds, meaning that no coach has a guaranteed spot in the finale!
So to stay out of the Bottom 2, everyone will have to to impress both the judges and America to gain their votes. Luckily for us, that makes for some show-stopping performances ahead tonight, Nov. 12, at 8 p.m. ET on NBC!
Also, don't miss another live show tomorrow night, Tuesday, Nov. 13 at 8 p.m. ET.
Will you be watching The Voice live tonight? Tell us below!

Updates with candidates settled for 28th state Senate race; comments from Gooch campaign and Miller concession
The November race for the 28th state Senate District will be between Republicans Jeff Stone and Bonnie Garcia, after Indio City Councilman Glenn Miller conceded a third-place finish on Friday.
Miller and Garcia were locked in a tight race since the June 3 primary for the second spot on the fall ballot, but a certified vote count Friday put Garcia 454 votes ahead of Miller.
In another contest with close votes, 31st Congressional district candidate Lesli Gooch's campaign spokesman said the Republican will review the final 209-vote gap between her and second-place finisher Democrat Paul Aguilar.
Election officials in both Riverside and San Bernardino counties released the certified results of the primary vote Friday afternoon.
Aguilar and Gooch in the 31st Congressional race and Garcia and Miller in the 28th state Senate primary contest were battling for the second spot on the fall ballot.
California's primary system puts the top two vote-getters on the November ballot, regardless of party affiliation.
Stone, a Riverside County supervisor, took first place in the six-candidate race for the 28th, which represents southwest Riverside County and stretches to the Arizona border. � He� captured nearly 22 percent of the ballots.
Miller said a recount would be pointless with the final gap of more than 450 votes between him and Garcia.
"The registrar of voters is very efficient," Miller said. "You are not going to move the needle that much."
Miller, who finished with a little over 19 percent of the votes, said he was going to reflect for a few days before deciding whether to endorse either finalist.
"I haven't � decided anything yet, and when I do decide, it will be in the best interest of the district," he said. Indio is within the senate district.
"I am very proud of the votes we won; we just came up a little bit short," he said.
In San Bernardino County's� certified vote count, Republican Paul Chabot is the lead vote-getter for the 31st Congressional district. He got nearly 27 percent of the vote in the seven-candidate race.
Gooch remained close behind Aguilar's numbers for the second spot throughout the ballot counting. On Thursday, they had been separated by 181 votes.
"We are reviewing the data precinct-by-precinct to make sure there are no irregularities or anomalies, and then we will make a decision whether to pursue a recount or concede," � Gooch campaign spokesman Jeff Corless said Friday.
"Lesli feels she owes that due diligence to her supporters and the voters of the 31st District," Corless said. Gooch had almost 17 percent of the vote.
He said a decision would be made early next week.
Redlands Mayor Aguilar had already claimed he won the second ballot spot.
The district stretches from Redlands to Upland in San Bernardino County.

I purchased this dress. I am 5'8" with a slim build and the dress was more like long shirt. It was very tight on my body, but had some stretch so I still wear it, but not very often. It is very, very cute but if you are built like me you may not like the fit. I didn't return it only because of the hassle.
perfect fall dress! would look adorable with boots! also looks super comfortable!
nice dress hope the quality is good too
i like it so much that i want to wear it!!

Asset Substitution, Money Demand, and the Inflation Process in Brazil
Calomiris, Charles W., Domowitz, Ian, Journal of Money, Credit & Banking
Asset Substitution, Money Demand, and the Inflation Process in Brazil
THE RELATIVE SOPHISTICATION OF FINANCIAL MARKETS in Brazil sets it apart from other developing economies. In the last twenty years, Brazil has proved fertile ground for financial innovations in response to high rates of inflation, reserve requirements, and low or zero nominal interest rate ceilings on conventional bank accounts. These innovations include the rapid growth of relatively unregulated finance companies, the emergence of a fledgling equities market, reductions in bank transacting costs through computerization, and the use of bank repurchase agreements as substitutes for conventional deposits (Gelb et al. 1980).
Primary and secondary markets for government securities, which also provide the basis for bank repurchase agreements, emerged in the early 1970s as well. These securities provided a convenient source of funds for the government in the face of shrinking money demand as they permitted agents to maintain relatively high yields and liquidity without resort to nonfinancial or foreign assets. Though the availability of treasury bills and indexed bonds contributed to the falling demand for money, the minimum denomination and transaction costs associated with holding and trading these instruments ensured that some agents would retain funds in zero or low-interest accounts. At the same time, those who might have transferred funds out of the domestic financial system, and beyond the reach of the government, were offered relatively attractive alternatives. Thus one can view the creation of these securities as a discriminatory financial taxation policy in which the most inelastic asset demands receive the highest taxation rates.
The peculiar features of Brazil's financial system have been recognized as a stumbling block to estimating the demand for money and for isolating the role of money in the inflation process (Gelb et al. 1980). Below we present evidence that the availability of alternative assets as a source of finance for the government and a store of value for agents has had important quantifiable effects on the demand for money and the relationships among government deficits, money growth, and inflation. Taking account of alternative assets allows one to explain much of the observed rise in monetary velocity (see Figure 1) and the puzzling fact that Brazil, unlike other high-deficit developing economies experiencing high inflation, shows money growth innovations following rather than preceding those in inflation (Hanson 1980).
We first develop a steady-state model of money-market equilibrium, which stresses the long-term connections between government financial policy, inflation, and real asset supplies and demands. This equilibrium model is nested within a short-term dynamic model allowing deviations from equilibrium in section 2. In estimating and testing the model we pay particular attention to problems of model specification commonly encountered in the estimation of money demand equations. We find that--contrary to the results of previous studies--Brazilian money demand appears responsive and stable. Section 3 turns to the issue of the connection between government deficits and inflation. There we argue that the peculiar pattern of intertemporal "cause and effect" between money and prices in Brazil is consistent with the predictions of section 1. Specifically, innovations in deficits can be seen as the "forcing process" to which other nominal variables respond.
The estimation of money demand provides a short-term indicator of economic activity and a long-term guide to inflation targeting. In Brazil, selective government intervention in asset markets (e.g., interest rate ceilings, time-varying inflation indexation rules and treasury bill supply policy) along with high and changing rates of inflation make interest rates unappealing short-term indicators. Data on GNP is generally considered poor and is subject to extensive revisions. …

Share Your Work—Be Part of this Year's Plenary
The Esri User Conference is coming soon and I need your help to put the finishing touches on my plenary session slides.
Each year, the plenary session provides an inspiring overview of the state of geospatial technology today. One of the best ways to illustrate that is by sharing examples of your work.
Esri's Commitment to Open
In the spirit of openness, I want to share with you today what it means to us, at Esri, to make ArcGIS an open platform.
We are committed to ensuring that your data and systems are interoperable with other technologies. This is a challenge because our user organizations have different or unique approaches, philosophies, and preferences for implementing interoperability. In response, we take multiple pathways to interoperability—a tactic that has, so far, been successful for thousands of users working with complex systems.
Please take a few moments to review the following information about the work we are doing to build ArcGIS as an open platform. Continue reading
Esri: Serving Our Users, Advancing GIS and Spatial Literacy
If you could not attend the 2015 User Conference and hear my opening remarks last Monday, I'd like to share a few thoughts about Esri's role in serving our users as well as advancing GIS and spatial literacy.
Our organization is about serving you, our users, with what you need and want. It's also about advancing GIS and a geographic initiative, promoting, and supporting the notion of "geoenlightenment."
As an organization, Esri is strong and we're continuing to grow. We're dedicated to this. And we're excited to see what you can accomplish and to watch your work evolve.
Professional Development
We've been investing heavily in opportunities for your continued professional development with a number of lifelong learning initiatives. This includes meetings like User Conferences where you can get together with your peers and learn from them as well as share your own best practices. We've been investing in more virtual classes and a number of other initiatives such as MOOCs—these massive online learning efforts; Esri Press, now with several hundred books published; technical certifications; and GeoNet, an online community to try to keep the kind of learning and sharing that happens at our User Conferences going all year long, all around the world, for all of our users.
The ArcGIS Product: An Integrated System
If you were unable to attend the 2015 User Conference last week in San Diego, here is a summary of my plenary remarks about recent and coming improvements to the ArcGIS product.
ArcGIS is made up of a number of components: a server component, a desktop component, an apps component, and now a content component, an online component, and a portal component. That's a lot of components, but in fact it's all one integrated system.
Desktop is the component of this integrated system that most of you work with and are familiar with. It supports mapping, visualization, and analytics, and it now embodies two main applications: ArcMap and ArcGIS Pro. These two applications run side by side.
We've been putting a lot of resources into ArcGIS Pro, the new 64-bit environment for visualization, over the last several years. We continue to improve and support ArcMap, and will continue to do so for long into the future. And over time, the power of ArcGIS Pro will become more attractive.
Creating Useful Technology and Supporting Our Users
During the plenary session of the 2015 User Conference last week in San Diego, I shared some of the big themes we are pursuing as we innovate the ArcGIS platform. For those of you who were unable to see the plenary, I'll share some highlights of our work here.
ArcGIS is an integrated Web GIS that is supported by services. These are abstracted in a geoinformation model that's managed by the portal, and then accessible by a number of apps, which are the growing part of this system.
As we continue to grow and expand the ArcGIS platform, our focus is on creating useful technology and supporting our users. In our work pursuing this goal, a number of themes have emerged. Continue reading
Empowering GIS Professionals and Transforming Organizations
GIS is evolving, and a whole new pattern is emerging. Web GIS integrates many innovations and provides everyone with the geographic advantage.
If you were not able to attend the 2015 User Conference last week in San Diego and hear my opening remarks on Monday morning, I'd like to share my thoughts about how GIS is evolving.
GIS is being influenced by and integrating with all kinds of new innovations such as faster computing, big data, the cloud, smart devices, and distributed processing.
At the same time, we are measuring everything that moves and changes on the planet with drones, Lidar, sensors, and other new tools.
These two forces are coming together to provide a platform for a whole new generation of apps. This new pattern is called Web GIS.
Web GIS provides us with a whole new window into our information through applications that are easy, 3D, and analytic. These applications are not just casual things, but reach deep into geographic knowledge and apply it. Continue reading
Applying Geography Everywhere
The purpose of the Esri User Conference is to get people together and build a network, teach each other, and create understanding. For those who attended the 2015 User Conference this week in San Diego, I want to thank you for everything you did to help make this year's conference such a tremendous success. For those who could not attend, I'd like to take a few minutes to give you an overview of my opening remarks on Monday morning.
This year's conference theme is "Applying Geography Everywhere." And I'd like you to really think about these three words.
The world that you and I live in is increasingly challenged. Population growth, pollution, over-consumption, unsustainable patterns, social conflict, climate change, loss of nature…these are not good stories.
One asks the question of themselves from time to time: "Where's this going to go? Is this really sustainable?" And clearly it's not if we continue the patterns that we're on. Continue reading
Carl Steinitz Honored for Excellence in Landscape Architecture Education
The American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA) recently announced its 2015 honors recipients. The honors will be presented at the president's dinner on November 9, held during the 2015 ASLA Annual Meeting & EXPO in Chicago. Among the honorees is Prof. Carl Steinitz, who will receive the Jot D. Carpenter Teaching Medal for significant and sustained excellence in landscape architecture education. I wanted to share some personal experiences and thoughts on Carl as an educator who had a profound impact on the direction of my life.
I was a student of Carl Steinitz's in 1968‐1969 at the Lab (later called the Laboratory for Computer Graphics and Spatial Analysis) in the Graduate School of Design (GSD) at Harvard. Continue reading
Web GIS and Esri's Massive Global Library of Content
Esri is now curating an enormous and rapidly growing library of ready-to-use maps, imagery, and geo-referenced data for the entire world. This online collection of authoritative content, together with the new Web GIS pattern, is having a huge impact on the way people use GIS.
GIS has a long history of successfully adapting to new technologies, applications, customer types, and business models. From mainframes to minicomputers, UNIX workstations to PCs, desktops to the enterprise to the cloud, each round of technical innovation has led to countless advantages for users of the technology. Every one of these changes has extended the reach of GIS by making it more accessible and usable by more people and for more applications.
Today, Web GIS together with massive online content is creating a major transformation in the use and access of GIS with simpler tools and information architecture. Some of the major initiatives that are enabling this transformation include: Continue reading
Jack Dangermond Speaks about GIS and Resilience at UN Climate Summit
UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon invited world leaders from government, business, and society to the UN Climate Summit 2014 to stimulate action on climate change. He asked them to bring big ideas and messages that could help reduce emissions, strengthen climate resilience, and mobilize political will to hopefully pave the way for a meaningful global agreement in 2015.
I was deeply honored to be invited to speak about GIS and resilience last week at the UN Climate Summit 2014. Following is a summary of my talk there.
Thank you your excellencies and prime ministers, ladies and gentlemen, guests. Thank you very much for allowing me to share a little bit about my work, and also the work that we are working on with the UNISDR, and a number of other organizations here. Continue reading

Not only was it Franklin College's last regular-season home game against Defiance College, the two teams were battling for the right to play host to a first-round game at the Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference Tournament.
The visiting Yellow Jackets overcame a four-point deficit in the final five minutes of play to defeat the Grizzlies, 72-63, on Saturday.
By locking down the No. 4 tournament seed, Defiance will be at home to take on Franklin for the third time this season on Tuesday.
The Yellow Jackets won the first go-round, 64-60, again having to rally past the Grizzlies, who had led by as many as 14 points in the first half Dec. 15.
Defiance senior guard Logan Wolfrum, scored 18 of his game-high 27 points in the final seven minutes of play to seal the victory. Wolfrum hit 11 free throws without a miss.
Defiance got to the free throw line 35 times, making 28 compared to Franklin's 17 for 23 in one of the most physical games of the season.
The Grizzlies kept things close and trailed by only four points at the half, 32-26.
Using a mid-court zone-trap defense, Franklin College forced Defiance into five turnovers to tie the score at 41-41 on a turning, twisting layup by sophomore guard Patrick Ellis.
Freshman center Dion Smith gave the Grizzlies a 51-48 advantage after cashing in on a 3-point play while being fouled in the act of shooting.
But it was Wolfrum, who almost single-handedly took over the game when the Yellow Jackets needed him most.
Also scoring in double-figures for Defiance were Ryan Hicks and Mason Roth with 17 and 13 points respectively.
For Franklin College, junior guard Bailey Howard finished with 23 points. Junior Terry Sargent added 14 and senior Gunner Erwin tossed in 13.
Defiance improved its league record to 11-7 and 15-10 overall while Franklin closed the regular season with a 9-9 record in the HCAC and 14-11 overall.
The winner of Tuesday's game will advance to the semifinals to take on the host and No. 1 seed Rose-Hulman on Friday.
The Engineers clinched an outright conference championship, beating Hanover College, 59-57, on Saturday.
Hanover, the No. 3 seed will play the winner of a quarterfinals game between Mount St. Joseph and Transylvania in the second semifinals contest Friday.

Re: You must ship internationally
As long as GearShop does not have a shop based within the European Union, the import duty for photographic equipment will continue to make GearShop uninteresting for residents within the EU. Which is why Amazon.de or Amazon.co.uk are, IMHO, shoppable for photographic equipment but Amazon.com is not.
VAT, or its equivalent, however can can not avoided because it is added on whether buying within the EU or importing from without.

My eBay 1973 24" Opaque Blue fillet brazed Schwinn Super Sport was delivered today by FedEx, and I spent the afternoon stripping everything off the frame in preparation for powder coating. I've been curious about the actual weights of the frame, fork, Ashtabula crank, and kickstand for years, so I weighed them all.
24" fillet brazed straight gauge chromoly frame (no headset): 7.25 pounds
Fork (crown race removed): 1.98 pounds
Ashtabula crank/chainrings (with bearings, cups, locknut): 4.01 pounds (!!)
Kickstand: 0.83 pounds
I'm actually pleasantly surprised by the frame and fork weights.
