text: Posted October 15, 2010 Manning either doesn't use a mouth guard or never takes it in/out - he changes the plays multiple times, and I haven't noticed him taking a mouth guard in and out. Do you know which it is? I went to try to find some highlights but I couldn't tell if he was using them because the quality is somewhat low and doesn't show enough of the pre-snap stuff. I would say the majority of pros don't wear one at all. Just my opinion/observations but I didn't research it or anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Graphene, a single atom–thick plane of carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb lattice, has captivated the attention of physicists, materials scientists, and engineers alike over the five years following its experimental isolation. Graphene is a fundamentally new type of electronic material whose electrons are strictly confined to a two-dimensional plane and exhibit properties akin to those of ultrarelativistic particles. Graphene's two-dimensional form suggests compatibility with conventional wafer processing technology. Extraordinary physical properties, including exceedingly high charge carrier mobility, current-carrying capacity, mechanical strength, and thermal conductivity, make it an enticing candidate for new electronic technologies both within and beyond complementary metal oxide semiconductors (CMOS). Immediate graphene applications include high-speed analog electronics and highly conductive, flexible, transparent thin films for displays and optoelectronics. Currently, much graphene research is focused on generating and tuning a bandgap and on novel device structures that exploit graphene's extraordinary electrical, optical, and mechanical properties.

Quotables: Terry Richardson's Denial Speaks Volumes
6/17/2014 11:00 AM PDT, by Sarah Taylor
"LiLo ... Somehow she said we spent a romantic night making love at the Chateau Marmont, which never happened. Then, on the internet, people are like, 'He did this and that.' But it's totally untrue."
--Celebrity photographer Terry Richardson -- who's had a relatively long professional history with Lindsay Lohan -- during a recent interview when asked about his sexual conquests, but namely those that were alleged to happen with a certain crotch-grabbing mess that just keeps on messing.
Terry sounded pretty adamant that nothing went down between the two -- either literally or figuratively -- but you have to wonder where all of this anti-Lindsay stuff is coming from, ever since her "leaked" sex list was brought out into the public earlier this spring.
Gosh. Does nobody want to cop to sleeping with Lindsay Lohan anymore? What a shame. For Lindsay, of course. For shame, for shame, for shame.

Good Day,
I installed word press with apache, PHP and my sql using the http://localhost/wordpress/wp-admin/install page. It installed correctly and i can log in as an administrator and can add the contents like pages etc..
Problem is when i click upon View Site link at top left corner of the admin page. Brower just takes me to the main Directory (wordpress). I can see all the contents of the directory there including index.php. When I click at Index.php it still shows the the contents of same directory. Actually no matter which page I do click. It just shows me the contents of the directory.
So any help to view the site would be highly appreciated.

I almost can't believe there was a time when the iPad didn't have Split View. Or that, for years, I thought Apple would never bring split-screen multitasking to iOS.
More than any other iOS update before, iOS 9 has fundamentally reinvented the role of the iPad in my computing life. As I've written in my iOS 9 review and look at the iPad one year after my decision to stop using my Mac, iOS 9 and its multitasking improvements have catapulted the iPad away from the old limitations of iOS into a different league.
With iOS 9 and the iPad Pro, the list of tasks I can't perform on my iPad is down to a single item.
I've never been happier with an iOS device and operating system than I am with the iPad Pro and iOS 9. Getting my work done is faster; using apps in Split View is a treat compared to iOS 8; and the software keyboard (despite some problems) continues to impress me with the addition of trackpad mode and the Shortcut Bar. The iPhone 6s, too, has been a pleasant surprise thanks to its superior performance and 3D Touch.1
There's never been a better time to be an iOS user. But that doesn't mean that everything's perfect. When it comes to iOS, happiness is often a fleeting moment – a temporary satisfaction with the current state of things before the inevitable longing for something deeper. Such is the constant pursuit of the future.
Every year, I put together a list of the changes I'd like to see in the next version of iOS. I've been doing this for several years now. This year, I wanted to prepare something bigger. The tenth version of iOS due to be released later this year will be a major milestone for Apple and iOS users. It only felt appropriate to celebrate the occasion with a different take on my annual iOS wish list.
For the past few months, I've been collaborating with Sam Beckett (author of a fantastic Control Center concept we linked to a while back) to visualize my iOS 10 wishes with a professional concept video and static mockups. Sam and I discussed my ideas for a couple of months, and he was able to visualize2 what I would like to have in iOS 10 – both for the iPhone and iPad – with a style and attention to detail I'm extremely happy with.
Below, you'll find a collection of my iOS 10 wishes, organized in tentpole features (the ones also shown in the video) plus additional sub-sections. Some of these wishes have been on my list for years; others are a consequence of the features Apple shipped with iOS 9.
Let's get started.
- I use 3D Touch heavily every day. Peek previews for tweets and links in Tweetbot, Home screen actions, keyboard cursor control, and channel shortcuts in Slack are gestures I intuitively perform daily. ↩
- He was also very patient. As you can imagine, I sent him a lot of ideas and comments before signing off on the final version. I can't recommend working with Sam enough. ↩

I really, really love this campaign...so magical and so kid-oriented. Why the 2 lines though? I prefer "Because no one would believe you". It resonates better. I should have had one of these cams as a kid!!
Anywez, lovely campaign :)
Not all who wander are lost.
Abso-tiva-lutely. 'Because no one would believe you' - would just be enough. Even if you are actually talking to the parents! nice anyway.
wow, cool pictures of whole campaign. Kids should not skip these ads
Love the whole campaign
What an awesome way to advertise something that would normally culminate in typical crap advertising

Several times, I checked the site and was greeted by a splash screen with icons from all of the major browsers and a message indicating that my browser was no longer compatible. I have the current versions of IE, FF, Opera, Safari, and Chrome, all of which are the current versions, and they all return the same result on all computers I try it on. Once I turn off the cache, everything returns to normal. I have tried resetting the cache settings to default and deleting the cache files via the Dashboard, but the problems returns, sometimes minutes, sometimes hours, after the cache is re-enabled. I would appreciate some guidance here. It is kind of urgent as this is a client's site and I can't have it crashing on me completely.

NEW YORK —The world's most famous spy is about to change out of his Brioni tux. For the first time in 12 years, James Bond will not wear hand-stitched Brioni suits on screen. A Brioni spokeswoman told BTL that the Italian luxury label's decade-long relationship with the film franchise—during which Brioni dressed Pierce Brosnan and, more recently, Daniel Craig—had ended. "We're sorry to no longer be involved, but things change," the spokeswoman said. "There appears to be a new costume designer, and [with that] comes a new approach to the wardrobe."
Apparently 007 is going back to his English roots: London-based Dunhill is said to have landed the high-profile role of providing costumes for Bond. A Dunhill spokeswoman had no comment. However, this would be a natural progression for the Richemont-owned company. Dunhill has dressed Craig for a series of publicity events, including the world premiere of Casino Royale last fall. The still-untitled 22nd Bond film—the second to star Craig—is currently in preproduction and set to be released in 2008.

Closing the closed APIs
By Erik Costlow-Oracle on Dec 12, 2013
Earlier this year, Wired published an article stating that, "Oracle has actually opened up Java even more — getting rid of some of the closed-door machinations that used to be part of the Java standards-making process." This openness comes through OpenJDK and the Java Community Process, where different companies and developers all work together to guide the future of the Java Platform.
Part of opening Java involves dealing with the evolution of internal APIs in the JDK outside the actual Java Language specification and APIs. While developers should not be using internal APIs like sun.* packages, over the course of Java's 18 year history, various applications have at times used these APIs for different reasons. Use of these implementation-specific, internal APIs poses challenges when they change and may decrease an application's portability between different Java implementations . Given the ease of obtaining component libraries, we are looking at ways of identifying and mitigating usage of internal APIs in favor of APIs intended for public use.
I will cover several topics in dealing with these internal APIs:
- Approach in identifying internal APIs
- Current target: CORBA and Applets/SecurityManager
- JDeps in Detail
Approach in identifying internal APIs
The definition of "internal API" is any package or class provided by a Java implementation that is not in the public API set. Gearing up for JDK8, OpenJDK contains a new tool called JDeps that is able to locate use of internal APIs within an application's JAR files or bytecode. By running this tool, you can see which components use internal APIs and which internal APIs they use.
We have run JDeps against a number of applications to figure out popularity of internal APIs and understand any impact.
CORBA and Applets/SecurityManager
Starting in Java 7 update 51 (January 2014), we will move the internal undocumented com.sun.corba.se APIs into a restricted API list. This will affect applications only if they do all of three things:
- If your application uses restricted permissions (i.e. sandboxed RIA or runs with a SecurityManager)
- AND uses CORBA
- AND uses undocumented internal Sun APIs (com.sun.corba.se.*) to do it.
The first attempt at moving internal com.sun.corba.se APIs into a restricted API list came back in June of this year on the OpenJDK mailing list. After more reviews, a better patch was created in October. Beginning with Java 7 update 51, the internal CORBA APIs are entering into a restricted API list. This means that if you have an RIA using this internal API, your application will need the manifest entry "Permissions: all-permissions" and cannot use the sandbox. If your application specifies fine-grained permissions through the SecurityManager, then you will need the "accessClassInPackage.com.sun.corba.se" permission.
- To see if your code or components use these internal CORBAP APIs, use JDeps and search the output for "com.sun.corba.se"
- If the above JDeps output says that you are using the undocumented internal APIs, you have two options:
- Recommended: Update the code to use javax.rmi.CORBA or org.omg.* APIs instead of the otherwise undocumented internal APIs.
- Bide time by either using "Permissions: all-permissions" manifest entry in your applet or obtaining the "accessClassInPackage.com.sun.corba.se" permission from your SecurityManager. Please use any time gained to work on Option A, above.
JDeps in detail
OpenJDK 8 introduces a utility called JDeps that looks through JAR files and identifies which JAR files use internal APIs and then lists those APIs. This answers the questions, "am I using these internal classes" and "if so, which ones." To use JDeps and check your applications, just download a preview release of JDK8. You do not need to actually test or run your application on JDK8, this just happens to be where the JDeps utility is.
You can then run JDeps on an application even if you do not have the source code.
To run JDeps against an application, the command looks like:
jdk8/bin/jdeps -P -jdkinternals *.jar > your-application.jdeps.txt
The output inside your-application.jdeps.txt will look like:
your.package (Filename.jar) -> com.sun.corba.se JDK internal API (rt.jar)

I have hidden my login page from myself very successfully with Better WP Security on a site that was hacked repeatedly this summer.
The site has remained stable since August, after being hacked every few days and I think the plugin was a big help. But it's been a few months and now I can't find the login page at http://www.animotionchiro.com/wp-admin/ or ../login or ../register or ../admin. It redirects me back to the home page each time. Help!
How can I change this redirect? How do i get back into my clients website?

Sailing from Hamburg, DE to Bodø, NO23 May 2014
For the past ten days I've been traveling with the Antigua, a dutch tall ship sailing from Hamburg, Germany to Bodø, Norway together with my good friend @rubiojr from Barcelona, Spain. We've traveled 2328 kilometers and to cut it short, I had a blast!
I've learned a lot about the Oceans (tl;dr: They're huge!), about sailing a tall ship, I've been climbing the Torghatten and touched the Engabreen glacier. I can nothing but highly recommend to hop on a non-cruise ship for a while for gaining new insights and to completely disconnect from the rest of the world.
The Antigua
The Antigua is a three-masted barquentine built in the UK in 1957. She's roughly 50 meters long, 32 meters high and weights 212 tons. With optimal sailing conditions she makes 9 knots, by motoring approximately 7. The ship is mainly operating in northern Europe. More specifically she's touring Svalbard for several months during the arctic summer, allowing people to observe polar bears, wales and other animals of the Arctic.
Its crew consists of seven people. Three of them (the captain, the first mate and an experienced sailor/sailoress) operate the ship in eight and four hour shifts. The remaining four are the cook and three waitpersons, working in eight hour shifts. Guests are encouraged to help operating the ship, most notably helping to hoist or lower the sails and to help out with the watches.
The route
As the Antigua had to be transferred up to Svalbard the trip we've booked wasn't exactly a cruise, but more of a sailing trip to collect sea miles. We've been sailing 24 hours a day and made only two stops at the very end of the trip due to the good wind conditions we've had after entering the Norwegian Sea.
The exact route (1257 nautical miles) was:
Hamburg, Germany -> Kiel Canal -> Kattegat -> Skagerrak -> North Sea -> Bergen -> Norwegian Sea -> Holandsfjord -> Bodø, Norway
Thanks for tracking, @rubiojr!
Since the wind forecast predicted NW wind conditions for the first few days the captain decided to skip sailing the North Sea and opted in for the Baltic Sea route instead by traversing the Kiel Canal. Initially, we've been a little bummed to hear that as it takes almost half a day to pass the canal, but it was all forgotten when we hoisted the sails after leaving the Kieler Foerde late afternoon on the same day.
During the night we've passed the Great Belt Fixed Link, making our way further north entering the Kattegat. Traversing the Kattegat and entering the Skagerrak took us another full day, but on the fourth day we've finally reached the Norwegian coast.
We followed the coast until the Wind turned around and made our way out to the open sea then, suddenly interrupted by an unexpected quick stop in Bergen due to a leak in the ship's cooling system. A few hours (and a Land-sickness experience at the local Starbucks) later we've left Bergen and headed for the open sea again where we've spent the next two days. Two days before we arrived in Bodø, on the 18th, we've stopped by at the Torghatten. On the 19th we've entered the Holandfjord to visit the Engabreen glacier, before arriving in Bodø in the evening on the 20th.
Taking over watches
While not mandatory, taking over regular watches was encouraged as it usually makes everything easier for all people involved. We've enrolled for two hour watches every eight hours. As an example, our first watch started at 9 am and lasted till 11 am. The following watch then was from 7 pm to 9 pm, followed by another watch from 5 am to 7 am, 3 pm to 5 pm, 1 am to 3 am and so on.
In short, after doing watches for a day our regular sleep schedule was completely wasted. It quickly became apparent that on a ship sleep seems to come in batches.
That said, watches were pretty interesting. We've been usually sitting on the bridge together with the other two persons on watch helping to hoist or lower the sails, spying the
land ocean, periodically checking the general situation on the radar, listening to the communication between ships or even taking over the steering wheel for a while.
There was one particular night I'll probably never forget when we've been on the watch between 3 am and 5 am during WMO Sea State Code 5/6 (up to 6 meters wave height). This night the foresail snagged with the rigging and had to be made loose again. So, @rubiojr took over the steering wheel while the sailoress climbed into the rigging to untie the foresail. I've been helping on deck at the time when the foresail detached from the rigging with a loud bang right above my head, letting me clearly experience what wind is capable of.
Constant motion
Sailing all around the clock is something you'll have to get used to, it's definitely not for everybody. From WMO Sea State Code 3/4 on (wave height up to 2,5 meters), the ship is constantly rolling from one side to the other, preventing you from doing pretty much anything except eating, sleeping or working if you're not used to these conditions. Furthermore, even these basic activities need quite some practice and patience. Out on the open sea where we've experienced waves up to 5-6 meters height it took me almost two days until I was able to finally catch some sleep again.
Have a look at the short video below to get an idea of what it's like when the sea gets rougher.
Land expeditions
As stated, we've made two stops before finally reaching Bodø: One at the Torghatten, a mountain on Torget island in Brønnøy with a gigantic hole right in the middle of the mountain which is 160 meter long, 35 meter wide and 20 meter high, and one in the Holandfjord to visit the Engabreen glacier. Both, Torghatten and Engabreen, were a whole experience on its own and won't be forgotten. I've never been so close to a glacier before. Touching the (hopefully) perpetual ice after a 10 kilometer hike a couple hundred meters high above sea level was as impressive as I've imagined it to be.
From the Wikipedia article about Torghatten:
According to legend, the hole was made by the troll Hestmannen while he was chasing the beautiful girl Lekamøya. As the troll realized he would not get the girl, he released an arrow to kill her, but the troll-king of Sømna threw his hat into the arrow's path to save her. The hat turned into the mountain with a hole in the middle.
Additional footage
There're a couple dozen pictures on flickr with impressions from various stages of our journey. A few more photos can be found on Instagram. Once @rubiojr has finished processing and uploading his GoPro footage I'm also going to provide links to his pictures and videos.
Update: @rubiojr's GoPro footage is now on Flickr!

The labour supply is the number of hours people are willing and able to supply at a given wage rate
Key factors affecting labour supply
1.The real wage rate on offer in the industry itself – higher wages raise the prospect of increased factor rewards and should boost the number of people willing and able to work
2.Overtime: Opportunities to boost earnings come through overtime payments, productivity-related pay schemes, and share option schemes
3.Substitute occupations: The real wage rate on offer in competing jobs affects the wage and earnings differential that exists between two or more occupations. For example an increase in the earnings available to trained plumbers and electricians may cause some people to switch their jobs
4. Barriers to entry: Artificial limits to an industry's labour supply (e.g. through the introduction of minimum entry requirements) can restrict labour supply and force pay levels higher – this is the case in professions such as legal services and medicine where there are strict "entry criteria"
5.Improvements in the occupational mobility of labour: For example if more people are trained with the necessary skills required to work in a particular occupation.
6.Non-monetary characteristics of specific jobs – include factors such as the risk with different jobs, the requirement to work anti-social hours or the non-pecuniary benefits that certain jobs provide including job security, working conditions, opportunities for promotion and the chance to live and work overseas, employer-provided in-work training, employer-provided or subsidised health and leisure facilities and other in-work benefits including occupational pension schemes.
7.Net migration of labour – the UK is a member of the European Union single market that enshrines free movement of labour as one of its guiding principles. A rising flow of people seeking work in the UK is making labour migration an important factor in determining the supply of labour available to many industries – be it to relieve shortages of skilled labour in the NHS or education, or to meet the seasonal demand for workers in agriculture and the construction industry.

I have a rather odd dilemma...
I installed WordPress, configured the network per the instructions, loaded up the domain mapping plugin, and created a few sites - setting each with a top-level domain.
I created A-records for each domain, and pointed them at the server. At this point, I thought I was good to go - but I soon found a bug in this otherwise awesome setup...
I can login to the main domain with super-admin credentials just fine. However, when I try to access the control panel for another site in the network, I'm kicked out and redirected to
wp-login.php . (I can see the rest of the site just fine. This weirdness only appears when I try to view the admin panel.)
I tried changing
DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE constant from the principal domain to the domain to one of the network sites and it allowed me to login on that site - but only that site. (I could still hit the principal domain as well, but on any of the other network sites, login was still hosed.)
Should I be messing with the
DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE constant, or should I just define it based on the current domain?

In my source code I see 2 X H1 and 1 X H2.
Can you please advise a newbie what I need to do to fix this.

. . . the weather was wonderful, we were able to swim in the beautiful Adriatic and enjoy your peaceful cove. Several of us enjoyed the day trips around the island and in Split while others relaxed. Everyone was happy. The three restaurants you recommended were a hit with everyone! The service staff were so gracious and the food was delicious.
We had a day to walk around the old town in Split and visit the city's history museum. Such a rich and complicated history. Thanks for the suggestions.
an oasis of calm and tranquility, set a mile from the main town. A beautifully presented home with every convenience provided as well as a lovely (but chilly!) pool and a stones throw to the sea.
I highly recommend a visit, thanks Nina for a super holiday
Nina and Robert's property is incredible. It sits right on Duboka Bay and offered everything we could have imagined. Considering I, nor anyone I have traveled with have ever been to Croatia, Nina and Robert catered to our every needs and helped us plan and absolutely memorable travel experience. We would definitely recommend their services. I promise you will not regret a single thing.
Our wine group travels every year to a different country to experience the wine & culture. This year we were 3 couples, all in our 50s. Our wine tour to Croatia was truly the best trip we have had. We stayed at the villa in Duboka Bay for 10 days and took wine tours on 4 days - on Brac island, Hvar island, Peljesac Peninsula and a wine dinner in Split.
The sailing to Hvar and Split for our wine tours was the coup de grace. Everything Adriatic Experience did for us, from planning our tours to our arrival by boat and the attention to detail on the organization was amazing. We got to see so many wineries, which were all very different and had great wines we had never even heard of before. Adriatic Experience clearly knows their wines & their groups - they tailored the entire vacation to us. And the food, especially from Maggie at Senjkovic winery, the dinner at Paradigma and the wine & food pairing at St. Hills allowed us to taste new Dalmatian cuisine.
We also had an amazing traditional "peak' dinner at the villa. Nina picked the wines and Jerko outdid himself and was very nice about showing us how he prepared the traditional dishes. The seafood risotto was one the of best I have ever had - he shopped at the large Split fish market for fresh shell fish.
Our "down" days in the villa were relaxing and wonderful to bask in the sun and the sea in the bay is unbelievable - such clear water, you can see 100 feet deep. And the villa is designed well for allowing privacy and plenty of places to gather together. Each couple took their own floor. We had the attic suite, which was perfect for us - plenty of room and spectacular view over the bay.
Finally the wines Nina picked for the house were such a treat - we got to taste a lot of wines from all over Croatia, not just the wineries on the tour.
We will be back with more from our wine club. Next time we are going to try a wine sail. We recommend Adriatic Experience for any type of vacation you want - they listen well and designed a great experience.
We really had no complaints, except that next time we might stay longer because we did a lot in just 10 days. After being in Duboka Bay I think we would have liked to spend more time there, especially since we could cook ourselves (the villa is very well equipped) and always have Jerko come when we wanted a treat.
San Francisco wine clubbers
Thank you for a great vacation in Croatia. The villa was just what we had imagined - pretty, very close to the sea and we could not get over the view. The pool was small, but the kids loved it - they are still talking about their vacation on Brac and would come back every year if we could.
We want to especially thank you for all the arrangements - the boat taxi from the airport was one of the highlights of our trip - we loved it. Our welcome supper was also very much appreciated, that and the grocery shopping before we arrived made the first few days relaxing after a long trip from the US.
But the day sailing was truly amazing, Robert was really great with letting kids sail and arranging for the wine tasting at Dubokovic winery. We are still enjoying the wine we took home!
We will be recommending your villas to all our friends - Croatia is getting to be very popular here in California.
Family from San Francisco
First day back at work after our holiday at your villa. I just wanted to say a massive thanks for making our holiday so memorable, we had a fantastic time and lots of fun. The villa was fantastic, and Duboka Bay and Milna were so beautiful. Also nothing was too much trouble for you.
Family from UK
Duboka Bay is beautiful and private and our villa was perfect. The water is clear and warm, the swimming is great and there were very few people, so it was really quiet.
The villa has lots of room and different areas for everyone on every floor (there were 8 of us). The kids loved the attic suite and found books and games to while away the time. The owners have furnished the villa with a lot of their own things, so it felt homey and comfortable and was very well equipped.
Our friends are coming with us next year.
Villa Folie a Deux is just above the water in exclusive Duboka Bay and just 2km from the harbor town of Milna, where yachts from around the world come and go all summer. Daily speed boat departs Milna for Day Trips to Hvar, Korcula, Mljet & Dubrovnik.
Charming harbor side cafes, restaurants and shops are perfect for an evening in the village. The fresh fruit and vegetable market has local produce while fresh fish can be purchased right off the local fishing boats.
A fast catamaran goes daily from Milna to Hvar, Korcula & Dubrovnik. Frequent ferries connect Brac island with Split - perfect for a day trip to Diocletian's palace, the not-to-be-missed farmer's market and strolling along the famous Split 'harbor side stroll'.
Brac island is the yachting gateway to Dalmatia – timeless, unspoiled and well connected. Brac is where yachts come and go all year around . . . where sailing traditions are a lifestyle . . . where olives are still pressed in the villages . . . where grapes are still harvested with family and friends . . . where stone is still crafted by hand . . . where life still continues in harmony with nature . . . where sun and sea still order daily life.
For active guests, a Day Sail, kayaking, hiking and biking are fabulous on the island. We can also arrange private island tours and wine tasting. Or relax with an Aromatherapy massage on your terrace or learn a little Dalmatian cooking with a private local chef. We provide the opportunity, you provide the inclination.

Name: Sharday Mosurinjohn
Program: Religious Studies, Postdoctoral Fellow
About Me: I study boredom. <Pause for the joke you're formulating about how boredom is interesting>. I'm interested in boredom as a special experience of time in late modern life, and as a symptom of the "spiritual crisis" of modernity.
Why I chose Queen's: After an undergrad in Anthropology and Museology at Western, I wanted to keep broadening my opportunities through an interdisciplinary grad program. Queen's was one of the only schools in Canada to offer Cultural Studies and I decided to take the risk and reap the rewards of becoming part of the inaugural cohort. I finished my MA in Cultural Studies with a thesis on Christianity, neoliberalism, and gender. Having enjoyed the interdisciplinary freedom, began the PhD directly after. From there, I moved on to what's long been my underlying passion: religious studies.
What I'm here to blog about: I'm here to talk about the transition from grad school to a postdoctoral appointment, and entering the academic job market as interdisciplinary researcher in the humanities and social sciences.
Name: Dustin Washburn
Program: Clinical Psychology, Ph.D., Year 4
About Me: I have noticed across many instances during my five years in graduate studies the tendency for researchers to study things that they inherently do not understand. Depression exists in many forms and is a common human condition we have all been exposed to in one way or another but it is vastly misunderstood. An appreciation for the syndrome's complexity is my motivation for studying depression, its antecedents and maintaining factors, as well as the negative impacts for individuals suffering from it. Clinically depressed individuals often engage in particular behaviours that can be difficult or irritating for those who are close to them, which can serve to further exacerbate their illness. Through my dissertation, I am trying to better understand this interpersonal dysfunction by investigating the cognitive mechanisms that underlie it. Specifically, my PhD research examines the impact of rumination on an aversive interpersonal behaviour, negative feedback seeking, and how that results in later interpersonal impairment.
Alongside of research, I express my passion for these issues through the clinical practice component of my program. I enjoy learning various psychotherapeutic techniques from numerous orientations to apply in my sessions. I find very few things are more rewarding than the process of helping another human being heal.
Grad school is busy, but if we're being honest, there is usually space for living outside of studies. When there's time for doing, I love playing squash (when my tendonitis isn't flaring up), listening to music (the heavier the better), and eating the best fruit in the world, watermelon (I could debate this for days).
Why I chose Queen's: Destiny. While that is true (probably), I was also drawn here by the strong Clinical Psychology program and the plenty of world-renowned researchers in the psychology department. As if that wasn't enough of a reason, my academic advisor is well known for providing excellent mentorship, and Queen's strong connection with the mental health community in Kingston offers extensive clinical opportunities.
What I'm here to blog about: Like the rest of us, I will be sharing my perspectives of graduate school through the lens of a fellow grad student. Some more specific themes that are likely to permeate my posts include what it's like to be in a program with one foot in the research world and one foot in clinical practice. Even more likely, you'll probably read about what it's like to return to academia as a mature (pronounced, 'ma-too-r') student – that's a shout out to all the brothers and sisters who are no longer the spry young chicks they used to be.
Name: Amanda Tracey
Program: Biology PhD, Year 4
About Me: I completed both my B.Sc. (Hons) and M.Sc. here at Queen's and started my PhD in September 2012.
My research is in plant community ecology and evolution looking at the implications of plant body size for reproduction, abundance and recruitment. The majority of my research takes place on properties belonging to the Queen's University Biology Station (QUBS) north of Kingston in Chaffey's Locks and Westport. I am passionate about science education and teaching & learning in general. I am an avid volunteer with the Kingston Humane Society, Kingston Junior Naturalists and PlantingScience. I love spending time in nature, hiking, fishing, and taking photos of it all.
Why I chose Queen's: I can't really remember why I originally chose Queen's—that was too long ago now. I decided to stick around at Queen's because I have a great Supervisor and having QUBS close by is very convenient for field work.
What I'm here to blog about: My experiences as a grad student in the natural sciences, at Queen's and in Kingston.
Name: Jeremy Walsh
Program: Exercise Physiology PhD, Year 2
About Me: I completed my BA in Kinesiology at Wilfrid Laurier University (WLU) in Waterloo, ON, and my MSc. in exercise physiology at Queen's. I took a year off between undergrad and grad school to figure out what I wanted to study for a master's; but mostly, I took that year off to volunteer at the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics.
I am fascinated by the ability of the brain to change itself in response to novel situations (brain plasticity). In particular, I am interested in exercise-induced brain plasticity and how exercise can be used to improve the aging brain.
My Master's research focused on how combining different forms of cognitive stimulation (exercise and cognitive training) affects brain function in older adults. We believe that individuals should perform cognitive training AFTER a bout of exercise, thereby increasing the amount of beneficial hormones (neurotrophins) that reach the brain. My PhD work, in part, will focus on what type of changes occur in the brain after a bout of aerobic exercise, and whether these changes support the rationale for performing cognitively stimulating activities immediately after a bout of exercise.
Outside of school I like to stay active playing many sports, camping, cycling, playing guitar, and working at the ARC pool as a lifeguard. I love living in Kingston as it offers an awesome range of activities all year round.
Why I chose Queen's: Prior to applying to Queen's, I knew WHAT I wanted to study but I was unable to find a supervisor who shared my research interest (based on their online [dating] profiles). I interviewed with potential supervisors from the School of Kinesiology and Health Studies at Queen's because of its strong reputation and research potential, but I didn't really have my mind set on a particular research interest. During that fateful interview, I expressed my passion for exercise-neuroscience with my supervisor to-be, and despite having a completely different research focus, he was eager to take me on. I liked this arrangement so much that I decided to continue working in the Human Vascular Control Lab for my PhD.
What I'm here to blog about: I am excited to try my hand at blogging and to step away from scientific writing. I wish to provide a perspective of discovery and learning, as a number of topics posted in this blog will be reports of what I have learned. As such, I strive to shed novel insight on the many facets of life as a grad student and life in beautiful Kingston.

The shipping charges were $4.95 and $5.95. 10 days after receiving the 2 bottles, I was charged $29.95 to fit-factory, supposedly for membership. I notified "fit-factory" and did receive a refund on my card for $29.95 on Dec. 26. On December 22, 2008, there were charges of $38.95 and $39.95 on my account. On Dec. 26, 2008, I called about these charges, and I was told that the shipping charges were for a 15-day "risk free trail" and that I should have read the agreement more closely. After 15 days, since I hadn't returned the unused portion of the samples, I was charged the full amount of $38.95 and $39.95. I was also told (by a very rude woman on their phone line) that I was not a very good consumer and that I should read the agreements and return policies more closely. There was nothing in either of those documents that said I would be charged the full amounts if not returned within 15 days. Now I fear that I will have to cancel my credit card in order to stop further unauthorized charges. When I called on Dec. 26, I did tell them to cancel my membership or subscription and I made a second call to verify that the cancellation was recorded. I also sent an e-mail to cancel. This company needs to be investigated because they lure people to order their products by claiming health benefits and weight loss, but make it sound like there is no obligation beyond the "risk free trail." I want my $38.95 and $39.95 back and any further charges to stop!

Morgan, who made nearly 300 appearances for the Blades as a player before joining Danny Wilson's backroom staff, was handed the reins when the former Northern Ireland international left Bramall Lane in midweek.
Speaking after goals from Chris Porter and Dave Kitson put Swindon to the sword, Morgan said: "If we are going to get promoted then it's going to be through team unity and that's what we had out there.
"Every professional footballer is talented but if you've got that desire and determination to be better than your opponent then that's going to stand you in good stead. That's what we had out there."
Morgan added: "That's an important win for us but I guarantee you there won't be two happier people seeing that result than Danny Wilson and (his assistant) Frank Barlow.
"It's never nice when people leave because there are people here, myself included, who have a great affinity with Danny and Frank. But the response was excellent."

WEST HAVEN, Conn. A Connecticut 911 dispatcher has been suspended with pay after he and a Vermont man were charged by Vermont State Police in an alleged child sex slave case.
Brett Bartolotta, 42, of Cavendish, Vt., and dispatcher Frank Meyer, 39, were charged last week with aggravated sexual assault and slave trafficking. Both men, who are former West Haven firefighters, have pleaded not guilty.
West Haven Mayor John Picard said Monday that Meyer was placed on paid leave effective March 1 pending a hearing set for Friday.
Authorities say the two men bribed the boy with money and gifts to perform sex acts in Vermont beginning when he was 12 years old. The alleged victim, now 25, told police his relationship with the two men continued until last year.MORE IN Vermont NewsBURLINGTON Gov.

Take a sneak peek at the new NIST.gov and let us know what you think!
(Please note: some content may not be complete on the beta site.).
Is this the same place as the National Bureau of Standards?
Yes. The National Bureau of Standards was established by Congress in 1901. Its name was changed to the National Institute of Standards and Technology in 1988 as part of the Omnibus Trade and Competitiveness Act. At the same time, Congress expanded NIST's mission by establishing the Advanced Technology Program and the Manufacturing Extension Partnership.
