I dealt with Brooks Cody and Desiree Ealy (my guess are these aliases names) they wasted 2 months of my time on a refinance of a home. In the beginning They assured me that my loan was a given based on the info I provided, in the process of obtaining the loan commitment, they requested that I fax them additional info, over 24 pages. After 3 weeks they contacted me to see why I did not follow thru with the fax. I gave them the date , tine and phone number of were I fax them, but these two unapt individuals could not find them. I refax the same papers and when I didn't here from them for over a week, I called and was told that some of the papers were not legible. So I ask why did not contact me about this. Its like talking to buffoons' so now they want me to refax everything again. Needless to say I have refinance else were.

I love these screen-printed posters by Otecki. Part tribal, part Scandinavian design, and very full of colour and impact. I like the simplicity of the symbolic hints here and there, a lot of emphasis being on the hands, eyes and nature. Although obviously very bold in colour, I do like, as with most screen prints, the areas where the ink is less prominent, retaining a feeling of the hand made.
Although the 3 and 4-colour versions are very strong, I'm particularly fond of the alternate versions, where he has used one design and mixed the inks on the screen. This technique makes each print radically different from the next and is usually achieved by pouring different colour inks on the screen before pulling them through, smearing them together in the process.

Traditional car rental companies are competing heavily with new shared economy start ups and will need to adapt to the changing market in order to survive.
There has been a lot of buzz about the shared economy in the travel and tourism sector, with Airbnb being a good example. In late 2013 Airbnb hit the news as New York State tried to ban the website, ruling it illegal. Hotels also fear losing clientele because of AirBnB and other peer-to-peer accommodation web platforms, such as HouseTrip and HomeAway.
However, the hotel industry probably has less to fear from this new trend than the car rental industry. As can be seen in the chart below, in major European countries (except for the UK) the car rental markets recorded negative growth in terms of market values in 2012. Although slow growth is expected for the coming years, none of the markets are expected to be back on pre-crisis levels in terms of market values before 2017. In contrast, according to Navigant Consulting, a consulting firm, global carsharing services revenue stood at around US$1 billion in 2013 and will jump 600% to reach around US$6 billion by 2020.
Car rental market value (USD million)
There are many direct and indirect competitors for the traditional companies. Zipcar, for example, was the first rental company to offer hourly rates. It increased in popularity rapidly and started competing against the international brands before being bought out by Avis in 2013. Other variations are Uber and BlaBlaCar which are distance ride sharing websites that connect drivers with paying passengers.These companies neither own the vehicles nor maintain them, but only act as an intermediary. Other variantsi includepeer-to-peer car rental services such as RelayRideswhere drivers pay to borrow someone else's car.
Why traditional companies are falling behind
The increasing popularity of peer-to-peer car rental companies is driven by to two main factors. Firstly, finding a car or ride is relatively easy compared to traditional car rental companies, which are limited to a certain number of pickup points. Secondly, and perhaps more importantly, prices are cheaper. Offering hourly rates, renting out a private car or sharing a ride fits in perfectly with the philosophy of the sharing economy.
Although traditional car rental companies have introduced their own car sharing services, (including Hertz on Demand and Enterprise CarShare) their revenues still depend on traditional car rental activities. Adding value by selling extras in current time proves difficult, as, for example, most people are using smartphone apps instead of paying for a navigation system. Hertz has already lowered its revenue projection for fiscal 2013 due to weaker volumes. As many direct and indirect competitors are changing the car rental market rapidly, companies such as Hertz will be better off restructuring their existing model by mixing in aspects of the shared economy system in order to survive.
Judging by the growth potential of the car sharing industry and the current climate of the car rental industry the big companies have to find an answer soon.

Learn about California Condors at Grand Canyon
Grand Canyon National Park, a World Heritage Site, encompasses 1,218,375 acres and lies on the Colorado Plateau in northwestern Arizona. The land is semi-arid and consists of raised plateaus and structural basins typical of the southwestern United States. Drainage systems have cut deeply through the rock, forming numerous steep-walled canyons. Forests are found at higher elevations, while the lower elevations are made up of a series of desert basins.
The Park contains several major ecosystems. Its great biological diversity can be attributed to the presence of five of the seven life zones and three of the four desert types in North America. The five life zones represented are the Lower Sonoran, Upper Sonoran, Transition, Canadian, and Hudsonian. This is equivalent to traveling from Mexico to Canada. The Park also serves as an ecological refuge, with relatively undisturbed remnants of dwindling ecosystems (such as boreal forest and desert riparian communities). It is home to numerous rare, endemic (found only at Grand Canyon), and specially protected (threatened or endangered) plant and animal species.

California Condors at Grand Canyon
Today, the California condor is regarded as one of the rarest birds in the world. By the 1980's fewer than two dozen condors lived in the wild.
Grand Canyon National Park has participated in the condor reintroduction program with encouraging results, making the park one of the easiest places to view California Condors. Learn how...
Glen Canyon Dam
The construction and operation of Glen Canyon Dam fundamentally altered the Colorado River ecosystem.
Because of the importance of the Colorado River to the Desert Southwest, it is not surprising that there has been, and continues to be, considerable debate over how to share and manage this natural resource. Learn more...
Exotic Tamarisk Management
Tamarisk reached the Grand Canyon area during the late 1920s and early 1930s, becoming a dominant riparian zone species along the Colorado River in 1963. Learn what the park is doing to control and remove tamarisk in order to allow native vegetation to recover.
Read about the Granite Camp/ Monument Creek Project here.
Grand Canyon Seeps and Springs Study
The Seeps and Springs Study inventories the biotic characteristics of South Rim springs and establishes a biologic baseline against which changes can be measured.
From this data scientists hope to gain an increased understanding of riparian (streamside) habitats and thus protect Grand Canyon's seeps and springs from possible future impacts.

Grand Canyon Natural Sounds
Natural sounds are an important part of Grand Canyon National Park. Rustling winds in the canyons and the rush of waters are the heartbeat and breath of some of our most valuable resources.
Biological Soil Crusts
Soil Crusts retard erosion by wind and water, help retain soil moisture during dry periods, slow evaporation rates, and enhance seedling establishment. These living crusts are extremely fragile and one footprint can set back development for decades.
Mountain Lion Research at Grand Canyon
In 2003, National Park Service wildlife biologists at Grand Canyon National Park initiated a radiotelemetry study of mountain lions in and around the park.
The purpose of this study is to gather information about lion behavior, including predation habits, reproductive activity, habitat selection, and other behaviors.

While pricing tires online, NTB's web site shows the Epic Tour 215/60/16 @ $76.99. However, the Calumet City, IL store quoted $81.99. An email to Customer Service has still not answered the question as to whether stores must match web site pricing.
However, I later discovered the store double-charged for Illinois' Tire User fee in the quote; once in the body of the price quote, then added it again as "New Tire Fee" in the charges/credit section.

June 8, 2015by Carolyn SzczepanskiI think we can all agree: Movement is essential to the human condition... Americans, especially American drivers in the Frontier, like to believe they are free to move, but I have found free and equal mobility to be a myth. Some are in charge of it. Some are excluded or even imprisoned by it.
June 5, 2015by Liz MurphyWith growing interest in bicycling from all sectors, Memphis, Tennessee, is becoming more bicycle-friendly — thanks to folks like Tulio Bertorini, a longtime leader with the Memphis Hightailers Bicycle Club. We checked in with him to learn a bit more about his background and the push for better bicycling in the Birthplace of Rock 'n' Roll.

We've since been joined by our neighboring City of Edina but I'm still often asked by staff and bike advocates in other suburban cities: What are the key issues we should focus on to become a more bicycle friendly suburban community?
June 3, 2015by Carolyn SzczepanskiGrowing up, cycling all over Dublin city center on the thousand-year-old narrow streets I never imagined another life, decades later, bicycling around the northern Virginia suburbs. This isn't to say you won't find me ferrying teenagers around in my minivan, but when I can I use my bike instead. It's fast and it's cheap and just seems like a nicer way to encounter the world. But nowadays when I...

We have a compelling mission, vision and belief statement that says we all win if everyone gets to enjoy the benefits and opportunities of bicycling. Why the League? There are other bike groups out there with similar goals; why should you support the League?

We often don't think about the things in our world that are common placed. Everyday, we hear, see, touch, and smell things that we give little or no thought to. For instance, can you imagine a world without color? I certainly would not want to live in a place like that...Would you?The books listed below are a celebration of colors around you.
For many adults, the Frog and Toad series, are books that you enjoy reading as a child, and now you are sharing them with your children or grandchildren.
I love it when parents share this type of information with me. Not only does it warm my heart, but it also gives me the opportunity to recommend other titles that you might enjoy.
So, stop by the library to say " hi!" While you are here; share a story or ask a question because we would love to get to know you.
Here are a few more picture book gems that you may or may not have heard of. I used several of these in my storytime, and they received rave reviews from children. I hope that you enjoy them as much as I have.
My Dad Is Big and Strong, But... : A Bedtime Story
Family Storytime is held every Monday night provided that the library is open.
During our weekly storytime program, children and their families will enjoy books, songs, and other early literacy activities. Frequently, crafts are also provided, but may not be appropriate for children under 3 years old. Please be aware that supplies are limited.
All HCPL locations will be closed on Monday, January 21st in observance of Martin Luther King Day. We will reopen on Tuesday for regular business hours.
Please call 281-812-2162 for additional storytime options. Thank you.
During the course of one year, the library receives many wonderful picture books. So, I want to highlights some of the items that you may have missed during 2012. I will be continuing this process during the next few weeks. If you had a new favorite, please post a comment below to share with others.
I have always loved children's Christmas books, and at one point, I had a rather large collection. Incorporating books into holiday celebrations is a great family tradition.
I am excited to tell you that this has been an amazing year for holiday books. All of the books listed here were published during 2012. I think that you will be pleasantly surprised at how many wonderful authors have shared their creative talents. I hope that you enjoy reading these items as much as I have.
At the Atascocita Branch Library, we recently had Rabbi Dan Gordon of Temple Beth Torah as a special guest for Twilight Tales Storytime. The program was very successful and we received several positive comments from families who partook. If you were not able to attend the program or simply want to expand your experience here are a few book suggestions for you to enjoy
Picture Books about Hanukkah
Now, that our Christmas tree is up, we need help decorating it. Families are invited to stop by the library to create a Christmas ornament for our tree. Materials will be available during business hours. While you are at the library check out our holiday books.

comment:2 Changed 6 years ago by whiteinge
Here are two documentation patches. (Or GitHub for those inclined.)
The first isn't all that related to this ticket, but since I was writing about reStructuredText the inconsistent references in the existing docs tickled my OCD.
The second is the actual admindocs documentation patch. I moved the existing reference to admindocs in templates.txt to it's own document and added some stuff. I also reworded a few things in that existing section that were inaccurate.

So, first off, great job writing the new docs for admindocs whiteinge! Those are really excellent and I learned plenty by reading them, not being a heavy user of admindocs myself.
All in all this patch is just about ready. The main thing that needs to happen, though, is that both patches need to be updated to apply cleanly to trunk (currently neither of them applies).
If someone will do that, I'll take care of the last couple tweaks and get it committed! I'd love to see this go in for 1.3.

Thank you for such a nice reply. It is always nice to meet new relatives! Perhaps we should take this from this site to e-mail. I think I provided mine earlier. Will put it here, just in case.
My hope is that there is information to find out more about Charles Felix Pratt's grandfather William Pratt who came to the USA in 1776. (as noted in the article in the bio.) Any ideas/direction on where that might be found?

RE: Johan Doerr
I am sorry, but an Ancestry tree is not an acceptable source, unless the tree owner documented their records citing specific PRIMARY sources. What source did the tree-owner give for the birthplace?
I just perused a handful of those trees and so far have found three completely different alleged places of birth for him and three different sets of alleged parents. One tree had him hopping back and forth from Germany to PA and having children simultaneously on both continents. Another tree had him being born to a mother who was three years old, and one had him immigrating to America 100 years after he died.

Mountain Sickness Topic Guide
Altitude Sickness (Mountain Sickness): Altitude sickness (mountain sickness) is caused when a person's body is not able to adjust to a higher altitude. Acute altitude sickness symptoms fatigue, headache, dizziness, insomnia, nausea, decreased appetite, edema, and social withdrawal. Most cases of altitude sickness are resolved by going to a lower altitude. Altitude sickness can be severe and life-threatening if it progresses to high altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE).
Must Read Articles:
Pulmonary Edema Pulmonary edema is a collection of excess fluid in the lungs. Pulmonary edema is classified as either cardiogenic (caused by heart problems) and non-cardiogenic. The primary symptom of pulmonary edema is shortness of breath. Pulmonary edema can be a life-threatening medical situation. The treatment for pulmonary edema can be ICU care in some cases, and medication in other cases.

Free Digital Edition
By Chris Fox
October 1 has come and gone, ushering in a "Brave New World" where Medicare payments are linked to quality outcomes.
To prepare for this, hospitals across the country have invested an incredible amount of energy to reduce readmission rates. In addition to rethinking discharge procedures and improving transitional care and follow-up protocols, many organizations are focusing on labor initiatives as a way to drive quality improvements.
Labor is the single largest operating expense for health systems, and few things have a greater effect on quality than the professionals providing patient care.
The following three labor management strategies can positively affect quality scores:
1. Decrease the Time Managers Spend in Administrative Duties
One of the most frustrating issues managers face in healthcare, whether they are nurse managers on inpatient units or managers of OR, ED, or women's services departments, is the amount of time they are forced to dedicate to the staffing and scheduling process and the detachment they feel from their staff and patients as a result.
Whether it is from time spent developing schedules, struggling with paper processes like PTO and trade requests, tracking licensure and credential details and expirations, or trying to recruit staff to fill open shifts, the activity of "staffing" can occupy 50% or more of a manager's time. The key to decreasing the time spent in scheduling and staffing is automation.
By automating the generation of schedules, the posting of open shifts, credential and licensure tracking, and implementing simple, paperless staff communications options (trade and PTO requests, etc.), managers can get several hours of time back per pay period - time they could be spending on patient care and mentoring staff.
2. Reduce Core Staff Floating
Excessive core staff floating disrupts continuity of care and is often cited as one of the biggest dissatisfiers among nursing staff. Floating can lead to internal conflicts, feelings of unfairness, and a culture of animosity which will erode morale and negatively impact patient care. In general, floating stems from inaccurate and/or incomplete core staff schedules.
Typically, schedules are inaccurate and unbalanced because they are based off of a flat budgeted target instead of a forecasted volume that is based on actual historical volume trends. It is crucial that health organizations have an accurate prediction of patient volumes four to six weeks out - before initial schedules are submitted.
Then, as the prediction gets refined in the weeks leading up to the shift, various strategies, including an automated, self-administered open shift management process, can be employed to fill in any gaps that may occur as a result of core staff unavailability for obligations such as Education, PTO, FMLA, etc.
Incomplete schedules are the result of staffing tools that do not highlight the difference between need and supply. Effective scheduling systems automate the creation of schedules and provide an easy, step-by-step process that alerts managers to upcoming events or areas of need.
While floating is occasionally unavoidable measures can be put in place to minimize it, and protocols can be embedded to ensure the decision process is fair, orderly, and follows policy to the letter.
3. Limit Overtime and Agency Usage
While overtime is considered by many to be a financial perk of the profession, it is not an effective long-term strategy for any organization. In fact, over the long term, overtime negatively affects the organization, the caregiver, and the patient. Providing quality patient care requires physical strength and endurance as well as mental sharpness. Excessive overtime leads to fatigue and eventually burnout - greatly reducing a caregiver's ability to perform as effectively as he or she typically would.
Currently, one in seven Medicare patients will experience some "adverse" event, such as a preventable illness, infection, or injury while in the hospital.1 A study released in the August issue of the American Journal of Infection Control noted the correlation of nurse burnout to higher healthcare-associated infection rates.
The frequent use of agency caregivers can also have negative effects on a unit, both from quality and financial perspectives. While agency staff can save the day as a source of last-minute contingency, excessive use of agency can cause a unit to miss its financial targets, disrupt continuity of care, and cause grumblings from core staff who are well aware of the difference between agency and core staff wage rates.
The key to decreasing overtime and limiting the use of agency comes from accurate patient volume forecasting, complete core staff schedules, and the development of right-sized and properly layered sources of internal contingency staff that can adjust to the ebb and flow of patient demand.
As quality care has become a major factor in ensuring hospitals receive payment for the services provided, organizations must look at a variety of ways to improve patient outcomes, safety scores, and lower readmission rates. Effective labor management strategies are of singular importance to these quality initiatives.

The following day less than 12 hours after picking her up I had her vet checked. Had one of her legs x-rayed, and the vet told me she may or may not ever be sound again. The vet also informed me that it take a horse about five to six months to get in the condition she was in. Also when I did feed her which was the same protein level of feed she said she had been feeding, she had diarrhea. She had diarrhea on the way home from picking her up. So whatever she was eating was going straight thru her. Which all I feed her was pellets, coastal hay and water. The vet also informed me that on a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being great, that this horse was a 2, for her weight.
I was looking for a lifetime partner in the horse. After all the new information I tried call her and no answer, I stopped payment on my check. When she did finally called I told her I wanted to bring the horse back and I had stopped payment on the check. She of course was not happy with me. We made a fast trip back to houston to return the horse. Her husband was really rude, I gave her a copy of the x-rays and vet report for the horse and told her to buy some hay for the horses so at least they would have something to eat. After looking at the other horses on the property they where all very thin. She said she had hay, which I never saw, the horses I saw that night where eating whatever they could find dirt, poop, etc. there was not any hay for them.
I would not recommend buying anything from these people.

FormWizard has a security_hash check failure with Textareas with leading/trailing newlines in Safari
|Reported by:
|Owned by:
|security_hash textarea formwizard
|Triage Stage:
|Has patch:
|Needs documentation:
|Needs tests:
|Patch needs improvement:
|Easy pickings:
I have a Form with a TextField, and when I put this form into a FormWizard, the security_hash generated for that form is different before/after the next form is submitted. This only happens on Safari. I've traced the issue to a TextField that has leading and/or trailing newlines.
In Firefox, a Textarea is apparently stripped upon submission, but in Safari, the leading/trailing newlines are submitted. As a result, when submitting the form with the Textarea, the security_hash that is generated uses the value of the field with the newlines included. But when I submit the next form, the security_hash that is generated from the previous fields doesn't have the newlines in that field's value. As a result, the security_hash is different, generating a security_hash failure. This may be due to the way that the previous fields are rendered into the second form.

In v1.0: This fix doesn't work; The latest Safari is not only passing in leading/trailing whitespace - it is also passing through \r\n within the fields. These are blowing up the hashing algorithm.
The tests need to add:
f1 = TestForm({'name': 'joe', 'bio': 'Nothing\r\nnotable.'})
Adjusting fix 10752 (django/contrib/formtools/utils.py) as follows works:
25: if isinstance(value, basestring): 26: value = value.strip() 27+ value = value.replace('\r', ' ') 28+ value = value.replace('\n', ' ')

What you are describing is a new problem: there was no mention of embedded \r\n previously in this ticket. Please open new tickets for new problems.
Also please be clear about the version you are referring to. The fix for this ticket went into trunk and the 1.0.X branch in May, thus is available in 1.1 and 1.0.3. I don't know what you mean when you say "In v1.0"; if this behavior was broken in 1.0 it will stay broken in 1.0 forever -- the fix is only available in an update to the release.

Unlike most African countries, Rwanda is made up not of hundreds of competing tribes, but three castes that share the same religion, language and more or less the same culture. The majority Hutu farmers (85 per cent of the population), the minority Tutsi cattle owners (14 per cent) and the labourer and servant Twa (one per cent) got along relatively well for hundreds of years.

Amazing that i have been the"love of his life"since 1984 and am the best kept secret in music. See"when the night comes falling from thesky" video we became engaged later and and there is still a unusual relationshup.many songs reference me and when we had a fight he put out a"karma contract"out on me,we also partnered a business and much much more guess you'll have to read my book"Aftermath"for the incredible details.
I am 5'7" and I think Bob is not as tall as this. I've seen him plenty of times on stage, but a better guide is probably gained from looking at photos of him with other people. He's only small - a little gem!
what a unique dude he was...before his time...

I agree that Bob dylan is a super hot guy!If i could date anyone he would be it!
I have no respect for any one who thinks too highly of themselves. Put up or shut up because I am gonna put it down for a while. Private people are real. Think Ill just act my age and I suggest it for anyone who has a heart. Have fun by yourself.
christine, sweetheart, the story told in the film is extremely distorted and according to Lou Reed, in no way corresponds to reality. Would you allow the use of your image on something unjustly defamatory? I love the movie and I`m a fan of Edie, but from what we know, her love for Bob was almost sick. Poor, poor girl.
You forgot to list Clydie King....

Louisiana loses jobs, Houma-Thibodaux employment holds steady
Published: Wednesday, May 27, 2009 at 10:58 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, May 27, 2009 at 10:58 a.m.
BATON ROUGE Louisiana's job losses are accelerating, but unemployment in Terrebonne and Lafourche stayed at 3.6 percent, the same as last month.
The Louisiana Workforce Commission said Wednesday that from April 2008 through last month, the state recorded a net non-farm job loss of 6,700, on a non-seasonally adjusted basis.
At the same time, the unemployment rate on a seasonally adjusted basis jumped from 5.8 percent in March to 6.2 percent in April. In April 2008, the jobless rate was 4.1 percent.
Nationally, the unemployment rate hit 8.9 percent in April, up from 8.5 percent in March.

Giving a talk on a boat
● My CV
● Zeta Functions of Curves with No Rational Points: We show that the motivic zeta functions of smooth, geometrically connected curves with no rational points are rational functions. This was previously known only for curves whose smooth projective models have a rational point on each connected component. In the course of the proof we study the class of a Severi-Brauer scheme over a general base in the Grothendieck ring of varieties.
● Symmetric Powers Do Not Stabilize: We discuss the stabilization of symmetric products Sym^n(X) of a smooth projective variety X in the Grothendieck ring of varieties. For smooth projective surfaces X with non-zero h^0(X, \omega_X), these products do not stabilize; we conditionally show that they do not stabilize in another related sense, in response to a question of R. Vakil and M. Wood. There are analogies between such stabilization, the Dold-Thom theorem, and the analytic class number formula. Finally, we discuss Hodge-theoretic obstructions to the stabilization of symmetric products, and provide evidence for these obstructions in terms of a relationship between the Newton polygon of a certain "motivic zeta function" associated to a curve, and its Hodge polygon.
Talk Notes and Slides
● Motivic Analytic Number Theory: There are beautiful and unexpected connections between algebraic topology, number theory, and algebraic geometry, arising from the study of the configuration space of (not necessarily distinct) points on a variety. In particular there is a relationship between the Dold-Thom theorem, the analytic class number formula, and the "motivic stabilization of symmetric powers" conjecture of Ravi Vakil and Melanie Wood. I'll discuss several ideas and open conjectures surrounding these connections, and describe the proof of one of these conjectures--a Hodge-theoretic obstruction to the stabilization of symmetric powers--in the case of curves and algebraic surfaces. Everything in the talk is defined from scratch, and should be quite accessible. A video of a version of this talk may be found here.
● Icebreaker Talk: Sam Nolen has taken notes on a talk for somewhat general audiences I gave at the Geometry and Topology Berkeley and Stanford Icebreaker Conference; the linked document also contains notes on a talk by Jeremy Booher.
● Duality and Generalized Scanning: Sam Nolen has taken (very informal) notes on a (very informal) talk I gave at the XKCD seminar at Stanford, about duality and generalized scanning. The linked document also contains notes on a very interesting talk by Arnav Tripathy, about an etale-topological Dold-Thom theorem.
● Line Bundles on Plane Curves, September 27, 2012, Berkeley RTG Workshop: We give two descriptions of the geometry of the Picard stack of the universal plane curve of degree d, as well as the limiting geometry of cohomological loci on the Picard stack, e.g. special divisors.
● More Cotangent Complex Stuff, March 20, 2015: Notes on a talk I gave on the cotangent complex for the Stanford Number Theory Learning Seminar on perectoid spaces. I give several example applications: lifting local complete intersection curves, "uniformizing" Abelian varieties of good reduction (ongoing work), and constructing the Witt vectors in a ludicrous way.
● The Cotangent Complex, May 18, 2012, Michigan Derived Algebraic Geometry RTG Learning Workshop: Rough notes on a talk I gave constructing the cotangent complex for maps of simplicial rings (following Quillen).
● Notes, Introduction to the Landscape of Generalized Euler Characteristics, March 6, 2012, UC Berkeley Commutative Algebra and Algebraic Geometry Seminar: "This talk will be a gentle introduction to the Grothendieck ring of varieties (the "baby ring of motives") and its role in the search for computable invariants of varieties. This ring is important, mysterious, and in some ways pathological. I will describe various questions about the Grothendieck ring, motivated by arithmetic, topology, and geometry--in particular, an analogue of part of the Weil conjectures--as well as some of its pathologies. I'll answer some of these questions for curves and discuss how these answers manifest themes from arithmetic and topology. Time permitting, I'll discuss obstructions to the truth of related statements for surfaces. This talk should be a good introduction to the material in Ravi Vakil's talk during the following hour."
● The Music of the Spheres, November 2013, Stanford SUMO/Splash: A talk for undergraduates about the mathematics underlying various wrong theories of cosmology from the past two millenia. Based to some extent on Arthur Koestler's excellent book "The Sleepwalkers."
● Tiling Problems, April 13, 2011, Stanford SUMO: A talk for undergraduates about tiling problems.
Summaries of Ongoing Work
● Non-Abelian Lefschetz Hyperplane Theorems: This is a summary of my thesis work, comparing maps out of a projective variety to maps out of an ample divisor, where the target is a scheme or stack.
● Homotopical Enhancements of Cycle Class Maps: This is a discussion of work in progress on enhancing cycle class maps to intermediate Jacobians; the end goal is an analytic description of fibers of these maps.
● p-adic uniformization of curves and Abelian varities of good reduction: This is a discussion of work in progress on uniformizing p-adic curves and Abelian varities of good reduction. To appear soon.
● Student Algebraic Geometry Schedule, 2012
● Classics Reading in Algebraic Geometry, 2012-2013
● Hodge Theory Learning Seminar, 2011-2012. There was never a website for this seminar, unfortunately. That said, here is my introductory talk from the seminar. And here are the first and second talks on the cycle class map.
Expository Notes and Articles
● A Short Proof of the Tian-Todorov Theorem: I give a very short (4 pages!) proof of the Tian-Todorov theorem, that is, that Calabi-Yau varieties are unobstructed in characteristic zero. I think this proof is well-known, but I don't know a great reference for it (if you do, please let me know). I also give two proofs of the T^1 lifting theorem.
● Local-Global Compatibility, Notes for number theory learning seminar, April 2014: Discusses relationships between the Langlands program for GL2, and in particular local-global compatibility, with the reduction types of modular curves.
● Etale Cohomology of Curves, Notes for etale cohomology learning seminar, October 2013: Computes the etale cohomology of smooth projective curves over an algebraically closed field--the notes are essentially self-contained, if slightly ridiculous in how they develop the theory of the Brauer group. Beware: there are a couple minor errors, which will hopefully be fixed soon.
● Picard Groups of Moduli Problems I and Picard Groups of Moduli Problems II, Notes for CRAG talks, February 2013: Describes stacks in the abstract, as well as quotient stacks more concretely, while largely avoiding the annoyance of fibered categories. Gives quotient stacks and the moduli stack of elliptic curves as examples, and computes their Picard groups, as in Mumford's paper "Picard Groups of Moduli Problems."
● Geometrizing Cohomology, Notes for XKCD talk: A very experimental and not very contentful talk about various ways one might think about higher-degree cohomology classes. Inspired to some extent by Pawel Gajer's paper Geometry of Deligne Cohomology.
● Yet Another Proof of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, A proof of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra I came up with in 2010, which is to my knowledge original. (Please let me know if you've seen it before!) Written to be understandable by undergraduates.
● Variation of Hodge Structure, Notes for Number Theory Learning Seminar, January 18-February 1, 2013: Discusses Hodge Theory, Variation of Hodge Structure, and related topics; subsumes most of what's in my senior thesis.
● The Derived Category of Coherent Sheaves on P^n, Notes for SAGS Talk, October 10, 2012: Discusses Beilinson's explicit description of the derived category of coherent sheaves on projective space (essentially, the BGG correspondence). This is essentially an exposition of Beilinson's demurely-titled 1 page paere "Coherent Sheaves on P^n and Problems of Linear Algebra," though I spend a lot of time fleshing out details. The notes are hand-written.
● The Shimura-Taniyma Formula, Notes for Number Theory Learning Seminar Talk, May 10, 2012: An exposition of p-divisible groups and the Shimura-Taniyma Formula. Essentially: how does the Frobenius action on a CM Abelian variety over a local field depend on the CM type?
● Stable Homotopy Groups of Spheres via Ad Hoc Methods, Notes for student topology seminar, April 14, 2012: An computation of the first few stable homotopy groups of spheres via ad hoc methods--mostly using the Barratt-Priddy-Quillen theorem. Also gives a cute construction of stable homotopy classes using homology spheres, which can be used to give a generator of \pi_3^s.
● Rational Equivalence of 0-cycles, Notes for SAGS, April 11, 2012: An exposition of Mumford's description of the group of Chow 0-cycles on surfaces admitting a non-zero holomorphic 2-form.
● Zeroes of Integer Linear Recurrences, Very informal notes for a grad student seminar, February 8, 2012: Gives an informal exposition of the Mahler-Skolem-Lech theorem.
● Fulton's Trace Formula, Notes for SAGS Talk, January 23, 2012: An exposition of Fulton's trace formula in coherent cohomology, which counts the number of rational points on a projective variety over a finite field, mod p. The exposition follows Mustata and Fulton, but fills in some details.
● Automorphic Forms, Notes for automorphic forms learning seminar, January 16, 2012: An extremely quick and dirty introduction to the basic definitions in the theory of automorphic forms for GL(2).
● The Poincaré Lemma and de Rham Cohomology, The Harvard College Math Review, Vol 1. No. 2, Fall 2007: An expository account of differential forms and the Poincaré Lemma using modern methods, aimed at beginning undergraduates. Contains some minor errors and omissions (in the exterior power section), which I am attempting to get fixed in the online version.
● Introduction to Hodge-Type Structures, Harvard Undergraduate Senior Thesis, May 2010: An expository account of some Hodge Theory, concluding with a sketchy description of modern approaches (e.g. mixed Hodge modules, etc.)
● Prime Reciprocals and Primes in Arithmetic Progression, Harvard Junior Paper, May 2009: Gives some estimates on sums of prime reciprocals in certain residue classes; some of the arguments (e.g. the proofs of Propositions 5 and 6) are, to my knowledge, novel.
● Linear Independence over $Q$ and Topology, Note for MathOverflow, November 2010: Answers a MathOverflow question relating the topology of certain Riemann surfaces to the linear independence of certain numbers.
● Line Bundles on Projective Space, written for Dennis Gaitsgory's 2009-2010 Theory of Schemes course at Harvard; gives two proofs that the group of line bundles on projective space over a field is generated by the canonical bundle, and is isomorphic to the additive group of integers. That is, the only line bundles are those we know and love.
● The Hilbert Scheme of Points on a Surface, written for Dennis Gaitsgory's 2009-2010 Theory of Schemes course at Harvard; gives a very hands-off proof that the Hilbert scheme of points on a nice curve or surface is smooth and irreducible.
● A Categorical Construction of Ultrafilters, a short and extremely elementary paper written with Zachary Abel and Scott Kominers, answering a question of E. Rosinger in the negative. Published in the Rocky Mountain Journal of Mathematics.
● Some brief notes: A space for very short expository notes on varied subjects
● Photos of Magnets, some constructions made from Zen Magnets
Non-Mathematical Writing
● "Draft Obituary, Winston Wallace 1922-2008, by Joanna Lansom," a short story I wrote a while back
● Ohio, a poem about Ohio
● The Moth at Knossos, another old poem I wrote as an exercise in mythology
● On "Old Futurism," a (mostly) silly exercise in writing a manifesto

Title: When We Didn't Get Along
Summary: A collection of moments in time between an insane inventor and his semi-aquatic nemesis.
Pairing/Warnings: Perryshmirtz! Mostly friendship, but with hints at more because I couldn't resist. A few swear words and innuendos.
When We Didn't Get Along
He peered around the mailbox, pulling his hat over his eyes as he scrutinized the lanky man, with coco brown hair and a pristine lab coat. Dr Heinz Doofenshmirtz looked more like a pharmacist than an evil genius. His general appearance made him seem ditzy and uncoordinated. Perry smirked to himself, and proceeded to follow him home. He'd be promoted in no time.
The same thing happened, without fail, every single day. He would build some crazy invention, Perry would destroy it, then Doofenshmirtz would be left to clean up whatever mess had been left behind. But today was different, and as he paced the floor, his latest machine untouched and his trap still intact, the doctor felt a pang of emptiness pierce his heart. Where was Perry?
Doofenshmirtz could act like he was a force to truly be reckoned with when he really wanted to, and sometimes Perry would even feel an odd rush of fear. But then Doofenshmirtz would somehow manage to set his own hair alight, and the moment would diminish right there.
The trap was easy enough to escape from, but the sheer sight of Doofenshmirtz expressing his latest scheme through a musical number was enough to keep Perry glued firmly to his chair. How many of the other agents had a nemesis who could choreograph like Heinz? None, that's how many.
Doofenshmirtz could not believe his eyes. He stared down at the platypus clinging to the leg of his trousers, his hat askew. He let out a small whimper, cowering away from the violent rumbles from overhead. Who knew that Perry was terrified of storms?
The clock ticked through the early hours of the morning and the sun began to rise over the city of Danville. Doofenshmirtz tossed and turned, groaning when the alarm sounded. The night had been a restless one, plagued by thoughts of eternal failure and that stupid secret agent.
Perry watched Doofenshmirtz pace back and forth as he spiralled off into yet another emotionally scarring tale from his past. His eyes fell to his watch and he wondered how long this crazy story would go on for. They seemed to get longer and even more insane every single day.
"Is that a new hat, Perry the Platypus? It's very slimming! It looks good on you!"
Perry saluted Major Monogram and headed for the exit, completely buzzed for another battle with his nemesis. Yes, his nemesis. And he hoped Peter the Panda knew that if he ever tried to take Doofenshmirtz away from him again, he's have a bust lip and a cracked nose to match his black eyes.
It still made his stomach squirm with guilt whenever he thought about what he did to Perry that day, even if it only was a scheme. Doofenshmirtz would never admit it out loud, but nobody could ever replace his semi-aquatic nemesis. Not even a panda from Seattle.
