Dr. Diane Webber recently received a fellowship from the Marion and Jasper Whiting Foundation. Dr. Webber will travel to Denmark, Sweden, and Norway in June 2016 to confer with Scandinavian colleagues about Bringing Active Learning to the College Classroom at the Universities of Copenhagen, Stockholm and Bergen.
Like many high school kids, Ivan Marchany '16 was very much into video games. But little did he realize that his boyhood hobby would turn into a career path in cyber-security. Because of a learning difference, Ivan's college search led him from his home in Puerto Rico to the Curry College PAL program, where he has thrived academically as an IT major, turning his once-perceived weaknesses into strengths.
The Institute on Learning Differences, a successful venture between the Education department and the Program for Advancement of Learning (PAL), gives students the opportunity to tap into the resources and knowledge of PAL faculty members and outside specialists to better understand the unique educational needs of students.

Choosing the right cloud for your workloads is a balancing act that can cost your organization time, money and aggravation - unless you get it right the first time. Economics, speed, performance, accessibility, administrative needs and security all play a vital role in dictating your approach to the cloud. Without knowing the right questions to ask, you could wind up paying for capacity you'll never need or underestimating the resources required to run your applications.

Can someone tell me the difference between Hybrid Bermudagrass and Seeded Bermudagrass?
Hybrid bermudagrasses are derived from mixing different varieties of bermuda grasses to gain an advantage over common/seeded bermuda. Such as lower cutting heights, darker color, thicker density, weed resistance, traffic tolerance, fewer seed heads, and some improved shade and cold tolerance. However, Hybrid bermudagrass can only be established through sod or sprigs. Seeded/Common bermudagrasses do have some improved varieties but it can not match the qualities that the hybrid bermudagrasses have.

Product Description
Throughout the first season of Sons of Anarchy, SAMCRO grapples with a multicultural array of foes: Hispanic bikers, African-American gangbangers, white supremacists, an Asian triad, and agents of the ATF. Uneasy alliances and precarious compromises rarely work out as planned, leading to nail-biting confrontations and headaches for Jax. But the rituals and emotional bonds of the club itself are the real subject of the show--how an institution built on friendship and family loyalty gets twisted by ambition and greed. One particularly compelling story line follows Jax and his best friend, Opie (Ryan Hurst, Remember the Titans), who had stepped away from the gang to make peace with his wife; to help Jax, he reenters the biker life, with horrific consequences. The creator of Sons of Anarchy, Kurt Sutter, was a writer and actor on The Shield, and fans of that show will find a similarly compelling mixture of scheming machinations and compromised morality here, grounded in excellent performances and vivid production. --Bret Fetzer

The premise is sort of Hamlet-meets-the-Sopranos: youthful biker and new dad Jax Teller (Charlie Hunnam) finds himself trying to balance work with personal life as the Vice President of the Sons of Anarchy Motorcylcle Club Redwood Original (aka SAMCRO), a gun-running biker gang co-founded by his late father and now run by his stepfather Clay Morrow (the ever-swaggering Ron Perlman), who's married to Clay's widowed mother Gemma (Katey Sagal, in pretty much the biggest departure possible from her Married With Children days). From the somewhat hippie-ish beginnings envisioned by Jax's father, SAMCRO has evolved into a criminal powerhouse, especially in their central California base of Charming, where they're practically a small-town Mafia.Read more ›
Sons of Anarchy shows real potential as a worthy successor to The Sopranos - The Complete Series episodic brand of voyeurism. Sons offers to take us into the lives of those who live outside the social contracts (or constraints) most of us take for granted. However, unlike The Sopranos, the Sons are not a criminal version of royalty (a status bestowed by endless viewings of The Godfather DVD Collection .) Instead they are, (as described by another reviewer) "relatable." These are, for the most part, average joes, who've chosen to live outside the requirement to be a part of the herd or to "go along to get along."
Whether we actually practice it or not, the American ideal (or myth) is that of the rugged individualists, who band together to oppose the bureaucracy that wants to force these square pegs into round holes. Think of Rooster Cogburn in True Grit.
And that's the legend that Sons of Anarchy is based on. The basic concept is that the SAMCRO's (Sons of Anarchy Motorcycle Club - Redwood Originals) are latter-day Knights Errant.Read more ›
The picture quality through all 13 episodes maintained decently, with only a few failures here and there depending on the night footage. The DTS is mixed just well enough to hear such gems as a cigarette burning while the Harley floods the outer channels, or a dog barking out a rear channel that makes you jump, or one of the few bass scenes (thumping music) when they enter the Niners Club in Oakland. The music was actually done just right in each episode as to not drown out any peripheral chatter or relevant goings-on. The supplements are placed entirely on disc 3 and include:
* Making of - 9 minutes which initially I thought was way too short but it gets made up for with everything else.
* Ink - 4:45 clip on everything tatoo. Unfortunately none of them were real.
* Bikes - 7 minute blurb on everything one needs to know about each character's mc. Caters to the enthusiasts wondering about the specs.
* Casting - 15 minutes of audition tapes mixed in with interviews for each primary and secondary character. I liked Pileggi's take on showing people he can be bad ("not Skinner").
* Deleted scenes - 35 minutes, half of which should have been left in, especially with such gems (plot holes) as how those panties kept getting flushed, Segal's chest scar, the clothing optional bathroom scene, Prospect feeling the wrath for beating Elvis, Pine being more aware of Clay's feel on his kid, and more.Read more ›

METAIRIE, LA. (AP) The New Orleans Saints have signed veteran tight end Benjamin Watson to a three-year contract, and have also re-signed special teams leader Courtney Roby and reserve linebacker Ramon Humber for another season.
The 6-foot-3, 255-pound Watson spent the past three years with Cleveland, where last season he caught 49 passes for 501 yards and three touchdowns. Drafted at the end of the first-round by New England in 2004, Watson has 321 career receptions for 3,776 yards and 28 TDs.

BASKING RIDGE, N.J., Nov. 10, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Verizon technicians are out in force again this weekend, working round-the-clock to restore voice, Internet and TV services for consumers, businesses and government clients in New Jersey, Long Island, New York City and other parts of the New York metropolitan area.
Restoration and Redeployment:
- Verizon employees continue to restore voice, data, Internet and TV service to thousands of customers daily.
- A contingent of 100 more technicians traveled north on Interstate 95 from Virginia Saturday (Nov. 10) to join repair crews in New Jersey. More than 1,200 employees from the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast are joining crews in New Jersey, Long Island and the New York City area to hasten restoral as commercial power is restored and Verizon crews can access Sandy-damaged facilities for the first time.
- Verizon continues to coordinate with commercial power companies and local authorities to resolve restoral challenges caused by downed power lines, trees and other debris.
- Even as power is restored to key facilities and customers' homes or businesses, Verizon may need to repair or replace damaged equipment – such as flooded electronics in switching offices, and broken poles and downed lines in neighborhoods – to bring back service for customers.
Customer Repairs, Replacements and Care:
- Verizon will provide credits for landline customers who have reported an out-of-service condition related to Hurricane Sandy.
- Customers may suspend their Verizon landline services free of charge if they're currently unable to live in their home or operate their small business as a result of Sandy.
- Verizon technical support will help customers determine if their equipment such as set-top boxes or home broadband routers is operable or needs replacement. Troubleshooting tips are also available for customers at www.verizon.com/outage.
- The company will repair or replace any consumer or small business Verizon equipment damaged by Sandy, without charge. This includes FiOS set-top boxes, FiOS broadband routers, optical network terminals and High Speed Internet (DSL) broadband routers.
Supporting Emergency Responders and Communities:
- Many Verizon FiOS and Verizon Wireless stores in the region are offering people without power the ability to charge their wireless devices. To find a nearby store, visit http://vz.to/charge. People should bring their own device chargers and call a store first to ensure it's open. Verizon Wireless also has staged eight mobile device charging stations in the affected area. An updated listing of locations and services can be found here.
- Verizon's emergency fleet of vehicles and self-contained emergency inflatable-air shelters continue to assist public-safety and disaster-recovery organizations in Long Beach, Queens and Staten Island in New York, and Hazlet, Hoboken and Ortley Beach in New Jersey. These mobile stations provide organizations with communications, Internet and video capabilities in particularly hard-hit areas where such services may not currently be available. In addition, the Verizon vehicle at 92-24 Rockaway Beach in Queens is open to the public from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. for free calls, device charging and Internet access.
- To support Hurricane Sandy relief efforts, Verizon Wireless customers and the Verizon Foundation have pledged more than $3.8 million to the American Red Cross and other organizations aiding in Hurricane Sandy recovery efforts. Customers can still make a $10 donation by texting REDCROSS to 90999, and those who would like to give more can donate up to $50 via text. In addition, Verizon employees have donated more than $535,000 to the American Red Cross and Salvation Army to date through the Verizon Foundation's matching gifts program; the foundation will match those donations two-for-one. For more on the Verizon Foundation's Sandy support, click here.
Customers can contact Verizon online at www.verizon.com/outage to report any wireline service-related issues; or call 1-800-VERIZON (1-800-837-4966). Please note that hold times will be longer than normal due to higher calling volumes. For prior Hurricane Sandy updates, click here.

Right off the bat, Newman advises that we should "think of microservices as a specific approach for SOA in the same way that XP or Scrum are specific approaches for Agile Software development".

Source: Pats, Spikes agree on 4-year deal
|07.26.10 at 6:51 pm ET
A league source has confirmed that Patriots second-round pick Brandon Spikes has agreed to a four-year deal worth just over $3.2 million, with a signing bonus of $960,000.
Spikes is the 11th member of New England's 12-man draft class to agree to a deal, leaving only first-round pick Devin McCourty without a contract.
The 6-foot-3, 249-pound Spikes played inside as a collegian at Florida, and will likely occupy that spot at the next level as well. A first-team All-SEC selection each of the last three years, Spikes started 39 of his 47 games with the Gators, totaling 309 tackles, including 31.5 for a loss and 6.5 quarterback sacks.
In addition, he was accorded as one of the smarter linebackers in college football over the last few seasons, and served as the quarterback of the Florida defense.
'Brandon Spikes is pretty much the middle of our defense like Tim Tebow was the center of our offense,' Spikes' college teammate Jermaine Cunningham said of the linebacker, who returned four interceptions for touchdowns in his college career. 'He was the center of our defense. He goes out there, he's quick and he holds the defense together.'
The news of Spikes' signing was first reported by the Boston Herald.

After years of relying on the "it's not you, it's me" excuse, a gay man in his late twenties begins to realize that he might really be the one to blame for his failed relationships in this broad comedy. Based on a serialized comic strip of the same name, The Mostly Unfabulous Social Life of Ethan Green stars Daniel Letterle as the title character, a flighty serial monogamist for whom no boyfriend is quite "the one." When he dumps his current near-perfect squeeze, the recently out baseball player Kyle (Diego Serrano), his friends begin to worry -- even more so when he takes up with a rebound boyfriend, the moronic party boy Punch (Dean Shelton). But when one of Ethan's exes, Leo (David Monahan), announces his plans for a commitment ceremony, Ethan has to face his unrequited feelings and figure out what he really wants. Family Ties matriarch Meredith Baxter co-stars as Ethan's mince-no-words wedding-planner mom. ~ Michael Hastings, Rovi

Compassion focused therapy (CFT) was developed to stimulate capacities for soothing and affiliation to self and others as a way to regulate the threat system. This feasibility study aimed to assess the safety, the acceptability, the potential benefits, and associated change processes of using group CFT with people recovering from psychosis.
A prospective, randomized, open-label, blinded end point evaluation design was used.
Forty adult patients with a schizophrenia-spectrum disorder were randomized to CFT plus treatment as usual (TAU; n = 22) or to TAU alone (n = 18). Group CFT comprised 16 sessions (2 hr each, 1 x week). Participants were assessed prior to randomization and at the end of treatment. Assessments included semi-structured interviews to elicit narratives of recovery from psychosis and self-report measures. At the end of treatment, participants were rated on the Clinical Global Impression Scale. Narratives were coded using the Narrative Recovery Style Scale to provide measures of change in compassion and avoidance. Change processes were correlated with changes in depression, personal beliefs about illness, fear of recurrence, and positive and negative affect.
Group CFT was associated with no adverse events, low attrition (18%), and high acceptability. Relative to TAU, CFT was associated with greater observed clinical improvement (p < 0.001) and significant increases in compassion (p = 0.015) of large magnitude. Relative to TAU, increases in compassion in the CFT group were significantly associated with reductions in depression (p = 0.001) and in perceived social marginalization (p = 0.002).
Findings support the feasibility of group CFT in psychosis and suggest that changes in compassion can be achieved, which appear to reduce depression in particular. This is the first randomized controlled evaluation of CFT.
Compassion focused therapy appears as a safe, acceptable, promising, and evolving intervention for promoting emotional recovery from psychosis.
Practitioner Points
- Compassion focused therapy appears safe to use with people recovering from psychosis.
- Compassion focused therapy was associated with significantly greater clinical improvement than Treatment as Usual.
- Relative to TAU, CFT was associated with a significant increase in compassion of large magnitude.
- Relative to TAU, in the CFT group increases in compassion were significantly associated with reductions in depression and in perceived social marginalization.

Rousey retained her women's bantamweight crown in the
Strikeforce "Rousey vs. Kaufman" headliner on Saturday at the
Valley View Casino Center in San Diego, as she submitted the former
champion with a first-round armbar. Kaufman tapped out 54 seconds
into round one.
Still undefeated and unchallenged, Rousey (6-0, 4-0 Strikeforce)
has finished all six of her opponents with armbars in the first
round, five of them in less than a minute.
"I have great coaches," Rousey said, "and I listened to what they
The 25-year-old champion punched her way into an immediate clinch
and brought Kaufman (15-2, 6-2 Strikeforce) to the ground with a
beautiful inside trip. Rousey mounted and transitioned to the
armbar without hesitation, and a brief but fruitless struggle from
the challenger could not undo the maneuver. Beaten for just the
second time as a professional, Kaufman had nowhere to turn but
"Ronda put on a great performance," she said. "I'm embarrassed by
my performance. I don't know what else to say. Ronda did a great
job of getting the armbar. I defended, but she ended up getting it.
I'm really disappointed. I wanted to land some good, quality
strikes, but it didn't happen tonight."
Afterward, Rousey turned her attention towards former 145-pound
champion Cristiane
Santos, whose suspension for a positive test for
performance-enhancing drugs expires in December.
"People want to see you in the first fair fight of your life,"
Rousey said. "I'm the champ now. The champ doesn't go to you. You
come to the champ. Come down to 135 [pounds], and let's settle
Souza countered the oncoming wrestler with a short right hook,
flooring and badly damaging Brunson (9-2, 3-1 Strikeforce). Referee
Mike Beltran afforded the three-time collegiate All-American a
chance to recover, but Souza had other ideas. The Brazilian
followed up with a volley of ground strikes that brought it to a
decisive close.
"All my training partners talk about my hands," Souza said. "I came
very prepared for this fight. I was very confident and did my
Saffiedine has won three straight.
Bowling (11-3, 4-3 Strikeforce) was a factor from beginning to end.
The 29-year-old Team Vision representative held nothing back in
unleashing heavy power punches to Saffiedine's head and body. The
Belgian answered with savage knee strikes from the clinch, some of
them slamming into Bowling's midsection, others finding their marks
up top.
Saffiedine tightened his hold on victory late in the third round,
as he sprawled on a desperate Bowling takedown attempt and moved to
back mount in the final minute of the fight. The Team Quest
standout fished for the choke, and though he failed to finish it,
the message was sent.
"I have awesome coaches," Saffiedine said. "They helped me out with
my technique. I felt really good and had an awesome training
A mad scramble resulted in Sayers being mounted a little more than
half a minute into the match. Smith drew blood with some elbows
before the two 185-pounders returned to an upright position. The
Nebraskan then slipped while dodging a wild haymaker from Sayers.
He lured the Coloradan into his guard, isolated his right arm and
cinched the choke. Sayers (6-3, 2-2 Strikeforce) had no choice but
to concede defeat, his modest two-fight winning streak a thing of
the past.
"I actually slipped on something after I threw a big hook," Smith
said. "Instead of leaving my chin out there, I went to my back
because I'm comfortable there. I tried to control his head and then
got control of his wrist and finished it. That's my trademark; I
triangle everybody."
Armed with a four-inch height and seven-inch reach advantage, St.
Preux leveled the Floridian with a left hand in the first round and
swarmed him with punches. To his credit, Cook weathered the
barrage, returned to his feet and fired back with a right hook that
had the Volunteer on his heels. Neither man could maintain the
frenetic pace.
St. Preux secured a double-leg takedown in round two and later
mounted Cook (12-5, 1-2 Strikeforce), further draining his already
depleted gas tank. It became clear as the third round opened that
Cook had little left to offer. Less than a half minute in, he lay
unconscious on the canvas.

Hagel says U.S. will prevent Iran from making nuclear weapon
May 16, 2014 - 15:01 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel pledged to Israeli leaders Friday that the U.S. "will do what we must" to prevent the Jewish state's greatest fear of a nuclear-armed Iran, the Associated Press reported.
Hagel made the public pledge in a statement at talks in Jerusalem with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
"I want to assure you of the United States' commitment to ensuring Iran does not get a nuclear weapon — and that America will do what we must to live up to that commitment," Hagel said, acording to the AP.
Both men spoke of the disputed Iranian nuclear program, which is the topic of negotiations this week in Vienna between Western powers and Iran.
"We've been saying all along that Iran is trying to pull the wool over the eyes of the international community," Netanyahu said in a statement while standing beside Hagel.
He cited a United Nations report on what he called "Iran's ongoing effort to deceive the international community to continue to develop ICBMs and to continue to violate its commitments of security council stipulations on forbidding it to develop certain parts of its nuclear program."
"They continue to do that and I think that requires a very clear and firm policy on the part of world powers," Netanyahu said.
The Israeli leader said, "we must not let the ayatollahs win, we mustn't let the foremost terrorist state of our time, Iran, develop the capability to produce nuclear weapons."
Hagel was wrapping up a four-day Middle East visit that began Tuesday in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, where he met with defense leaders from Persian Gulf nations with longstanding security ties to the Unites States.
Hagel's trip coincided with international talks in Vienna with Iran aimed at drafting a deal to limit Iran's nuclear program, which is a top-priority issue for the Gulf Arab states as well as for Israel.
The Iranian government says it has no intention of building a nuclear bomb.
Improving relations with Iran has been a high foreign policy priority for President Barack Obama, and the Vienna talks have raised hopes of meaningful progress on the nuclear issue
In Saudi Arabia Hagel said that "under no circumstance" will the U.S. sacrifice its allies' interests in order to make a nuclear deal with Iran.
More broadly, Hagel's talks in Saudi Arabia were intended to persuade the sometimes fractious Gulf states to collaborate on missile defense and other security initiatives. They agreed to meet more frequently to discuss these issues but announced no new steps toward an integrated air and missile defense system.
In Israel, the AP says, Hagel made a brief visit Thursday to an air base where U.S. and Israeli forces were preparing to begin a missile defense exercise, dubbed Juniper Cobra, using computer simulation of potential attack scenarios and post-attack disaster responses.
Washington has been trying for more than two decades to get the Gulf states to do more collectively in their own defense, with limited results. Then-Defense Secretary Dick Cheney began that push in 1991 in the aftermath of the Gulf War, which began when Iraq invaded a largely defenseless Kuwait and the U.S. came to its defense by deploying about 500,000 troops to the Gulf and drove Iraqi forces out of Kuwait.
Since then, many of the Gulf states have bought billions of dollars worth of American weaponry, including missile defense systems like the Patriot. But the defenses have not been integrated and thus have limited capabilities against a potential Iranian missile barrage.
