Are we to blame for beached whales and dolphins?
In my last post, I talked about the two varieties of whale stranding and Dr. Gregory D. Bossart 's Science on Tap lecture on the topic at the Georgia Aquarium. This time around, I'm going to run through some of what Bossart had to say about the possible causes behind mass strandings. Sadly, a number of the cases point back to human alteration of the environment. See more »
The Laws of Science (and Faith)
Devout environmentalism is now tantamount to religious conviction -- in British law at least. No, the UK hasn't made a mass return to its Druidical past, enshrining the cycles of the moon in law or worshipping sun gods with parabolic solar collectors. But the employment laws that protect religious freedom have been extended to include the belief in man-made climate change. See more »
Whether you're a struggling sub-Saharan farmer or just a hippie dosed to the gills at Burning Man, the sight of an advancing wall of abrasive darkness is never a good thing. Also known as sandstorms, dust storms have served as harbingers of drought, famine and death for thousands of years. See more »
Thailand: Sinking Cities and Fading Deltas
Thailand's enormous capital is crisscrossed with canals and bisected by the snaking path of the Chao Phraya River. As such, some travel writers have dubbed Bangkok the "Venice of the East," and as with its Italian cousin, there's also more than a little concern about what happens if sea levels rise. See more »
"Global Warming" Gets a PR Makeover
How much does unappealing language hold back messages about global warming, um, I mean the "deteriorating atmosphere?" That's what the nonprofit PR firm ecoAmerica set out to study. Its findings suggested that no, people don't want to hear about "global warming," or even "climate change" -- it makes them freeze up and think about Al Gore -- but they wouldn't mind listening to a few value-focused "talking points." Although the ecoAmerica study was just released yesterday, it's already been around the block a few times. About a month ago, a summary meant for government officials and environmental leaders was accidentally e-mailed to several news outlets, including the New York Times. More recently, Grist reported on the document, which focuses on nearly every environmental buzzword out there. See more »
The Oceans Are Getting Saltier
The oceans are getting saltier, and it's apparently in direct response to man-made climate change. Peter Stott, head of climate monitoring and attribution at the Met Office in Exeter, England, determined this after studying 50 years' worth of data and comparing it to climate models "that correct for naturally occurring salinity variations," according to ScienceDaily. Stott and his team found that global warming resulting from man-made emissions (as opposed to emissions from natural sources like volcano eruptions) were likely responsible for the increasing salinity of the North Atlantic. Slight rises in salinity -- less than 1 percent -- have already been recorded in subtropical regions of the Atlantic. Stott hypothesizes that global warming is changing the patterns of rainfall across the planet: As high temperatures zap away water in subtropical zones, the atmosphere carries that extra moisture toward the poles, as well as toward the Pacific via the trade winds.

Good Luck Everyone.
Sentiment: Buy
I previously suggested this could be a double. It has certainly moved in the direction i predicted.

What makes this special is this is a grass roots Company, they are not new to the marketplace but well grounded and earn money in their basic business which grows, perhaps like a snail or tortoise, but is solid. So their is no doubt management will seek a strategic merger/sale of sort after the spin off is completed. Once more an opinion, but it is reaffirmed by all the new institutional buyers of the stock

Might I just say how happy I am to have left the snowy North and returned to my homeland? I can appreciate that my Two-Legged Pets want to spend time with other members of their litter — sometimes even I'm nostalgic for the days of old, my twelve brothers, sisters and I all huddled together as mom told us doggybedtime stories.
But the bitter cold, disappearing ground (damn you, "snow"!) and perpetual state of inactivity (see my last correspondence) were driving this here of the Noble Canine Family bonkers.
The Southwest — it's a serene, barren place. Nice and warm, dry weather. Beautiful vistas.
And as long as my doggy water bowl continues to be filled, I'll remain in bliss forever. (Though on that score, I've heard talk from my pets the water is disappearing. Can it be? More than marrow-less steak bones, this scenario plagues my night visions.)
I digress.
What better way to celebrate our return home? Dinner at an outdoor cafe, of course. (I know, it's now near or is January. And, according to the round dial above Papa Pet, we're relaxing in 72-degree Fahrenheiters. If you're anywhere not in the South, you probably hate me right now. Then again, you do have water …)
Strictly speaking, I'm not usually allowed to eat at the restaurants with my pets (silly "health inspectors," I've been told). Though on account of my always good behavior, I am allowed to sit beneath the table.
Which brings me to the unintelligent villains of my story.
My pets were sitting there, enjoying a good meal and recounting various fun stories from the holidays (I particularly loved hearing once again how, because of losing their luggage on an airplane, one of the "New Yawk" litter actually fainted at the prospect of wearing non-form-fitting, lighter-shaded clothing).
And what should happen but two very shifty, shady young women with gelatinous bellies, thin, strung-out, excessively curly light hair, and protruding overbites sauntered in and sat at a table across the aisle. They emanated a strange, demonic attitude.
And, to what would have been the "New Yawk" breed's horror, they were wearing sweatpants. In public.
Almost immediately I could sense my pets' attitudes changing — their joy dimming.
I peeked across the way to see the Evil Urchin Twins looking maliciously toward my family. Listening in, I realized they were mimicking my pets' conversation in strange voices and then … laughing.
My pets' auras worsened.
I was confused — they never seemed this discomfited. And the Squid Women — their auras grew ever more malevolent. The fur on my back stood straight.
It seemed my family was under attack … but unable or refusing to do something about it. The impulse to defend was mounting.
I felt a light pull on my pets' leash and realized we were leaving. One of the Platypus Sisters stood up smiling, revealing several dark teeth and a hellacious gust of breath even the Two-Leggers must have noticed. She sneered at Papa Pet, "Don't forget your purse!"
My teeth were digging into her heavily-volumed (if oddly structureless) rump. Squeals of pain erupted. Shouts of anger from Dim Henchwoman #2. A strange, potent gust of wind from my victim's other end.
Calm instructions from my family: "Creak, let go. Creak, she's not worth the attention for which her disgusting attitude pleads."
I bit tighter. I was pissed.
No one messes with my family.
I could taste the fear in her sweat.
And what a bitch, too. Now my OA was definitely going to flare up.
"Creak, my boy, bite any tighter and she could infect you with something."
I released and looked pleadingly at my pets — the last time I inadvertently said hello a little too well to a new friend at the park I had a metropolis of fleas devouring my nose.
"Good boy," The Mother Pet said. "Everyone, we're leaving now."
That night I received a full steak bone all my own.
Beautiful, delicious marrow included.

TBX5-Nkx2Project reference: 219834
Funded under :
Crystallographic and biochemical studies of the human TBX5-Nkx2-5-DNA complex
Project details
Total cost:EUR 158 127,84
EU contribution:EUR 158 127,84
Coordinated in:Germany
Topic(s):PEOPLE-2007-2-1.IEF - Marie Curie Action: "Intra-European Fellowships for Career Development"
Call for proposal:FP7-PEOPLE-2007-2-1-IEFSee other projects for this call
Funding scheme:MC-IEF - Intra-European Fellowships (IEF)
Holt Oram syndrome (HOS) is a heart and limb syndrome, which manifests itself in 1 of 100000 live births. HOS syndrome is an autosomal-dominant disease, where forelimb and cardiac congenital abnormalities are observed. The syndrome is connected to mutations in the T-box transcription factor TBX5 gene. Similar symptoms are observed when mutations in the homeobox transcription factor human Nkx2-5 are present. TBX5 and Nkx2-5 interact with each other and synergistically activate the promoters of the cardiac-specific natriuretic peptide precursor type A (ANF) and connexin (cx40). The project goal is the biochemical characterization and crystal structure solution of the ternary TBX5-Nkx2-5-DNA complex. The crystal structure of the ternary complex will allow a comprehensive structural analysis of the interaction mechanism between TBX5 and Nkx2-5 and their DNA binding sites and will elucidate the synergistic promoter activation of TBX5 and Nkx2-5 on a molecular level. Such insight is of broad interest for cardiovascular biologist because it opens the ultimate perspective to use this knowledge for influencing cardiac growth and for cardiac regeneration. The results of this project will contribute to the European quality and competitiveness in cardio vascular research. The project uses the full portfolio of structural biological research and requires interdisciplinary knowledge in molecular biology, biochemistry, biophysics, protein crystallography and bioinformatical techniques. Thus, the researcher has the possibility to gain skills in all techniques necessary for doing successful research in structural biology. In addition, the multidisciplinary environment at the EMBL will give the researcher the possibility to interact and communicate with scientists in fields other than crystallography. All mentioned points will allow the scientist to gain professional maturity and to develop an independent research career.

Geoff Ogilvy poised for strong finish to playoffs
ATLANTA -- The typical debate about the FedEx Cup and the event that finishes the competition -- this week's Tour Championship -- centers on volatility.
The frequently confusing points configuration that is used to determine the FedEx Cup champion gives far greater weight to the four playoff events, often at the expense of a player who had a very good year.
For example, winning the Barclays, Deutsche Bank Championship or BMW Championship earns a player more than four times as many points as a major championship does. That is often viewed as a flaw.
But to not have volatility renders these four tournaments nothing more than money grabs. The top players would advance with virtually no chance of anyone well back in the pack making a move.
And so we come to Geoff Ogilvy, who had a lackluster season by his standards but has come up with two clutch performances to make it to the Tour Championship, which begins Thursday at East Lake.
He began last week's BMW Championship in 69th position. He needed to finish no worse than third to advance. And that's exactly what he did, jumping into the top 30 at No. 24 and giving himself a remote but still possible chance of winning the FedEx Cup.
"It's been a bit of a rough year, so to get to Atlanta with a rough year is kind of nice," Ogilvy said.
No doubt Ogilvy, the 2006 U.S. Open champion, has endured some hardship. He missed time after suffering a cut on his finger in Hawaii, which caused him to withdraw from the season-opening Hyundai Tournament of Champions. A shoulder injury and then an intestinal virus also contributed to his woes.
Then he missed the cut at the playoff-opening Barclays, meaning he headed into the Deutsche Bank in 91st position. And when his drive at the 71st hole came to rest behind a rock, Ogilvy's PGA Tour season appeared over.
"At that point, I didn't think I was going to be playing in Chicago," said Ogilvy, who had to take a penalty drop but still managed to par the hole. He then birdied the 18th to advance by the slimmest of margins.
And then he did it again, jumping 45 positions to get here.
Ogilvy needs a lot to happen to win the FedEx Cup -- it starts with a win, and the players in the top five need some lackluster finishes in a 30-player field -- but he wouldn't be here if the rules did not allow for some big jumps by players who have good tournaments in the playoffs.
"I think what they've done with the playoffs in golf is kind of a happy medium between giving the guy that's played well all year an advantage and also knowing that this time of year is what they're really putting emphasis on," said Matt Kuchar, who finished second last year -- earning a $3 million bonus -- and is fifth in the standings this year. "Having some movement, having five times the amount of points, yet there's still some weight toward having a good, consistent year. So I think overall, the system is really a good system."
It is one Ogilvy took advantage of this year, and it sounds as if he won't be too disappointed if he manages to win the tournament but falls short of the FedEx Cup.
"People are forgetting this is one of the tour's special golf courses, special tournaments," Ogilvy said. "At the end of your career, it would still be pretty special to have a Tour Championship on your mantel. I guess I'll view it like that, and, if the right things happen, that would be great."
Aussies and the Presidents Cup
Ogilvy qualified for the Presidents Cup International team by finishing third at the BMW, and he will join fellow Aussies Jason Day and Adam Scott on the team that will take on the U.S. in November in Melbourne, Australia. Captain Greg Norman will make two at-large picks next week, and nobody would be surprised if he simply named countrymen Robert Allenby and Aaron Baddeley. They followed Louis Oosthuizen and Tim Clark in points, but Oosthuizen has not performed well and Clark is injured. Easy call, right? Not necessarily.

In a conference call this week, Norman seemed to suggest that Baddeley was not a slam dunk. Also in the picture is Vijay Singh, who has played on every Presidents Cup team dating to the event's inception in 1994.
"He's in the mix, no question about it," Norman said of Baddeley. "His playability, ball flight is very suited to that golf course. And he putts well. Royal Melbourne, the greens are going to be extremely fast, I know that. So putting well from inside 6 feet is huge.
"I feel for Aaron because he's one of those guys who really wants it. Sometimes when you want it, you've got to be careful how you get it. Sometimes that's putting a little less strain on yourself that allows you to build up the ladder a little bit. I like the way he is, I like the way he is in the locker room. So he's obviously a focal point of those top two picks, as well."
One thing Baddeley has going for him is that he is playing in the Tour Championship. He has another chance to audition. So does Singh. Allenby and Oosthuizen are not here, and neither is Camilo Villegas, another possibility.
Just wondering
what the future of the FedEx Cup holds. This is Year 5 of a six-year deal with the packaging company, and there seems to be an assumption that everything will remain the same after the deal expires next year.
The PGA Tour has signed new television contracts that run through 2021, and three of the four playoff events have been extended past 2012. That would suggest that those contracts have some provision for a playoff scenario, including the big $8 million purses that are being offered at each event.
But should we assume that FedEx is on board for another go? The company is paying a whopping $35 million a year, with $10 million of that going to the winner of the competition. Second place gets $3 million, and payouts -- believe it or not -- go all the way to 150th place. Players who don't even make the playoffs get a $32,000 bonus.
Bob Harig's mailbag
How will Tiger Woods fare for the rest of 2011? Can the Americans prove their mettle vs. the Europeans? Drop ESPN.com golf writer Bob Harig a line, and every Thursday, he'll respond to some of the best questions. Ask Harig a question
"We are absolutely committed to it going forward because it worked," PGA Tour commissioner Tim Finchem said. "It's accomplished more than we had anticipated by this point in time, and we think it's just going to grow from here, no question about that.
"We delayed talking to FedEx until after television [contracts were signed] because so much of their involvement is television, so we have begun those conversations. We fully expect to continue down that road, and continue to have these levels of funding."
Of course, what is Finchem supposed to say? That he fears FedEx won't renew? That he expects a decrease in the playoff payoff?
That would not be his style, even though you could easily make the argument that someone paying out that kind of money would not be a slam dunk.
Then again, Finchem got the television contracts done in a poor economic climate, a surprise to many. The PGA Tour continues to renew title sponsors or find new ones. The FedEx Cup continuing beyond next year would be the next logical step.

Playoff Pressure
Birdies And Bogeys
2. Geoff Ogilvy. He needed to finish third at the BMW to advance and did exactly that, also locking up a spot on the Presidents Cup International team.
3. Alexis Thompson. At 16, she became the youngest player to win on the LPGA Tour with her victory Sunday at the Navistar Classic. The way she plays the game is impressive.
1. Bill Haas. With a back-nine 42 at Cog Hill, a golden opportunity slipped away to make the Presidents Cup team on points. Now he needs to rely on a captain's pick, and with dad Jay an assistant, that gets messy.
2. Jim Furyk. He isn't defending his Tour Championship title because he didn't make the field, even though he was in perfect position to do so, after shooting a 76 on Sunday.
3. The LPGA's Thompson stance. Commissioner Mike Whan understandably is leery of letting teenagers be members, but Thompson is a special case, a rare instance when someone so young is so ready.
• Webb Simpson enters the Tour Championship at No. 1 in the FedEx Cup standings and with three top-10s in the playoffs, including a victory at the Deutsche Bank. A victory gives him the FedEx Cup, and a finish in the top five still allows for a good possibility. There are mathematical scenarios that allow him to win the whole thing by finishing as low as 29th.
• Simpson is trying to join Rory Sabbatini (2007) and Padraig Harrington (2009) as the only players to finish in the top 10 in all four playoff events.
• Luke Donald is fourth in the FedEx Cup, second on the PGA Tour money list, first on the European money list, No. 1 in scoring average and No. 2 in Sunday scoring average.
• PGA champion Keegan Bradley is the only rookie on the PGA Tour who made it to the Tour Championship.
• There are six players with two victories this year on the PGA Tour -- Nick Watney, Bubba Watson, Steve Stricker, Webb Simpson, Mark Wilson and Keegan Bradley. A victory by any of them at the Tour Championship would go a long way toward that player being PGA Tour player of the year. Same for Luke Donald, who has just one PGA Tour title but has been a consistent performer and is ranked No. 1 in the world.
• The Tour Championship has just three past champions in the field -- Vijay Singh, Adam Scott and Phil Mickelson.
• The U.S. appears to have a tough task in keeping the Solheim Cup against a determined European team in Ireland. The Americans are on a three-match winning streak.
"That's part of the appeal of the FedEx Cup is that carrot dangling at the end, whether we need the money or not." -- Geoff Ogilvy on the $10 million bonus that goes to the winner of the FedEx Cup
Catching up with '10 champ
Jim Furyk capped his best overall season on the PGA Tour with a victory at last year's Tour Championship, edging Luke Donald by a stroke. In the process, he was the FedEx Cup champion and was voted PGA Tour player of the year.
This year did not go as well for Furyk, who failed to qualify for the Tour Championship when he shot a final-round 76 at the BMW Championship and did not move into the top 30. Furyk was positioned to do so through three rounds but had a stretch of four straight bogeys Sunday that doomed him to a tie for 22nd.
Furyk, who still qualified for the Presidents Cup team, ended up 36th in FedEx Cup points. It is the first time since the inception of the FedEx Cup that he failed to qualify for the Tour Championship. His previous worst finish was 11th in 2007.

Hi Marianne & Dick,
We just want to let you know that we enjoyed our stay at your condo, so much so that we made reservations for next year.
The condo was wonderful. Beautiful view, fully furnished and all of the kitchen equipment we needed to cook! The washing machine/dryer was a bit annoying as it was one of those 2 in one and it took forever to dry clothes. But that is a very minor detail. The owners were so pleasant to work with, we felt safe at the condo and patti was great. The one thing I would recommend is a safe at the condo to put Passports. We didn't have a problem, but for some reason it gives you a better sense of security when leaving your passport etc...Overall, great experience.
Thank you!
This condo is just great. Super location and ideal for a couple.
Very clean with all amenities necessary for a great vacation.
Owner, Dick was very easy to deal with and property manager on site, Patti, was super!
Thank you for a great 10 days. Really enjoyed our stay.
tHE CONDO WAS EXACTLY AS DESCRIBED AND THE VILLA MAGNA RESORT WAS FANTASTIC AS WERE THE STAFF.i WOULD RECOMEND THIS CONDO TO ANYONE WHO LIKES GUARANTEED WEATHER,GREAT SUNSETS AND GOOD RESTAURANTS NEARBY. LOTS TO DO IN NEARBY PUERTO VALLARTA.
This is the fifth time that we staid at Villa Magna complex but different apartment and we would like to return very soon. The Apartment is perfect, beautiful, confortable. You will find all that need to have a very great time, the view from the balcony is amazing and relaxing.
The unit was clean and well equipped. The owner was good to deal with.
We are still here until Feb 23! Enjoying our stay. We were a little disappointed tonight when Patti ( next door) popped over to tell us we had to be out by 11 am. On Sat . Never stayed in a hotel, resort, or condo that has had a checkout earlier than noon. Our flight does not leave until Sat evening. This is the 1st time in close to 2 weeks that we have seen or heard from anybody. Paula picked us up from airport on Feb 9th. She advised she would drop off her business card the next day in case we needed anything, and haven't heard or seen anything since. No card delivered either.
Condo is great. Wish balcony was a bit larger but all else is good.
Located in tower 2 with the best views. Newly opened Palapa café in front of building 2 serving great snacks, drinks and more at a good price

For all the political differences between President Obama and Mitt Romney, it's important to remember there is more in humanity that unites than divides.
Consider what author David Maraniss discovered that Obama and Romney have in common: Polygamy in their family trees.
Romney's family history is better known, given the publicity surrounding his membership in the Mormon church.
But Maraniss, whose biography of Obama is due out in June, writes in The Washington Post that "the line of polygamists in Obama's family can be traced back generations in western Kenya, where it was an accepted practice within the Luo (pronounced LOO-oh) tribe."
Writes Maraniss:
His great-grandfather, Obama Opiyo, had five wives, including two who were sisters. His grandfather, Hussein Onyango, had at least four wives, one of whom, Akumu, gave birth to the president's father, Barack Obama, before fleeing her abusive husband.
Obama Sr. was already married when he left Kenya to study at the University of Hawaii, where he married again. His American wife-to-be, Stanley Ann Dunham, was not yet 18 and unaware of his marital situation when she became pregnant with his namesake son in 1961.
Maraniss also traces Romney's lineage:
His paternal great-grandfathers, Miles Park Romney and Helaman Pratt, were born in the United States but lived for decades in Mexico. Pratt was a Mormon missionary there; Miles Park Romney left Utah for Mexico with a tribe of polygamous Mormons after the practice was outlawed in the United States in 1890.
Pratt had five wives. Miles Park Romney had four, and 30 children, one of whom was Gaskell Romney. The polygamy stopped at Gaskell, who had a single wife and seven children. One of the children, George, was born in a Mormon colony in the state of Chihuahua, Mexico, although he was nonetheless a U.S. citizen. He was Mitt's father.
Maraniss, a Pulitzer Prize winner, finds the Obama and Romney stories to be very American:
Although the candidates are noted for their innate caution, their family histories evoke a kind of exceptionalism that defines the United States — not in some gauzy and false way, but in the reality of a national fabric woven from exotic threads. Where to start? How about polygamy?

Geo News said hideouts in Kalam Khel, Arghanju and Lundo Qamar were also targeted.
The identities of those killed were not known.
This was the second operation in as many days. On Wednesday, eight militants were killed in a similar air strike.

Roy Jenkins's guest is Professor Sue Black, a world leading forensic anthropologist.

Professor Sue Black - Forensic Anthropologist
On All Things Considered this week there is another chance to hear Roy Jenkins' interview with a scientist and academic whose work is the stuff of nightmares.
She has been in mass graves in Kosovo, examined the results of atrocities in Sierra Leone, Iraq, Thailand and various other countries and picked through evidence of the Asian tsunami.
Much of her time she spends piecing together evidence from corpses, or parts of bodies, in a job which could warp anyone's mind, or at least turn them off the human race for life.
Neither appears to have been the case for Professor Sue Black, one of the world's leading forensic anthropologists, who loves her work as a means of bringing serious criminals to justice, and hope to grieving families.
It is not quite the dramatic, sometimes glamorous life seen in TV series like CSI and Silent Witness – but what does it do to a person and how does anyone cope with such regular doses of sheer horror?

Education Department and community colleges try to help Corinthian students transfer, but Senate Democrats and consumer groups complain about for-profits as a transfer option.
Bill Clinton is stepping down as honorary chancellor of Laureate International Universities, announced Laureate Education Inc., a for-profit that is among the world's largest higher education providers. Clinton concludes a five-year contract with the company.
His wife, Hillary, this month announced her candidacy for the Democratic presidential nomination. As a result, scrutiny of the Clintons' many connections and roles has notched up in recent weeks.
Ernesto Zedillo, the former president of Mexico, will assume a similar position with Laureate. Zedillo will be a presidential counselor with Laureate International Universities, which enrolls nearly one million students, with a heavy focus on Latin America. He will advise the company and its 80 institutions on academic innovation and private and public sector collaboration.
"Laureate students represent the next generation of leadership. I have seen a commitment to quality and leadership throughout the Laureate network, and I have enjoyed being a part of it," Clinton said in a written statement. "President Zedillo will be a remarkable ambassador. I am sure he will have a positive impact on the organization and, most important, on its current and future students."
A segment on WITI News highlights a University of Phoenix settlement with a woman who says she was misled by recruiters about the job prospects her degree program would open up. The woman said she was told that a human services degree would give her opportunities similar to those of graduates of social work programs, but she found her program didn't have social work accreditation so she couldn't gain internships or jobs in the field. Phoenix reviewed records of its counselors' interaction with the student and then admitted that they had "inappropriately characterized likely career outcomes." The news show says other students are making similar complaints.
DeVry Education Group, a major publicly traded for-profit, on Thursday announced consolidations and a rebranding for its DeVry University. The company announced that it would close 14 campus locations, converting academic programs at those locations to online-only offerings.
Like most for-profits, DeVry's flagship brand has struggled with sagging enrollments and revenue. This quarter it reported declines of almost 16 percent in revenue and 15 percent in total undergraduate enrollment. However, the broader holding company has fared better of late -- its overall enrollment is up 18 percent. In Brazil, for example, DeVry enrolls roughly 40,000 degree-seeking students, company officials said.
Daniel Hamburger, the DeVry Education Group's president and CEO, said in an interview that the university chain's campus consolidations are part of a broad repositioning and an attempt to return it to growth. "We'll focus on the most competitive markets," he said. "This is a narrowing of our campus footprint."
DeVry also will focus on more targeting advertising in those areas, pulling back somewhat on national ads. The for-profit chain is seeking to reduce its tuition, to strengthen teaching and learning models, and to develop its ties with employers, Hamburger said.
"We're managing for the long term," he said.
California's consumer protection agency on Tuesday ordered Corinthian Colleges' campuses in the state to stop enrolling students after tomorrow, the Orange County Register reported. An official of the Bureau for Private Postsecondary Education said the order would "protect individuals who may have been thinking about enrolling at these schools." The California agency's move is the latest blow -- among many -- for the crumbling for-profit provider; last week, the U.S. Education Department fined the company $30 million.
Education Department turns up heat on for-profits with job-placement-rate scrutiny, three months before gainful-employment rules kick in. But lack of federal standards for placement rates causes confusion.
The U.S. Department of Education has granted federal aid eligibility to two new academic programs that do not rely on the credit hour -- a form of competency-based education called direct assessment. So far six institutions have earned approval from the department and regional accreditors for direct-assessment programs.
Walden University, a for-profit institution that Laureate Education owns, announced on Tuesday that the department approved its new competency-based master's degree in early childhood studies. The university offers the degree through its Tempo Learning program, in which it said "students can progress at their own pace by applying their existing knowledge and prior experience while focusing on mastering the skills they need to meet the demands of the workforce."
The Texas State College System last October got a green light from the department for its competency-based certificate in industrial systems technology, according to a spokeswoman for the system. The 27-credit program features training in electrical and computer systems. Students work at their own pace and can earn a certificate in two semesters or less. The credential appears to be the first department-approved direct-assessment program to feature face-to-face instruction.
Hillary Clinton, on her first trip to Iowa after declaring her presidential candidacy, criticized for-profit colleges and talked about college costs in a discussion at Kirkwood Community College.
She said it was important to look at "some of the for-profit schools, some of the scandals that have arisen in these places where they have taken all this money… and put all these people into debt" without providing students with the skills they need. Then many students "drop out and they don't have the degree or credential" but do have debt, Clinton said. "We have to take on those interests that want to keep the system the way it is."
Clinton endorsed President Obama's proposal to provide free community college tuition. But she stressed that she realized tuition alone was not the only expense faced by many community college students. Books and online materials cost money, she said. She said she has been told that because Pell Grants cover tuition at most community colleges for low-income students, many say that the "bigger problem" is other expenses beyond tuition. "A lot of students are working or are single parents and they have all these other expenses," she said.
C-SPAN video of the appearance may be found here, with the section on college costs and for-profit higher education starting around the 58-minute mark.
As the campaign for debt relief for its students mounts, for-profit Corinthian Colleges tries to pressure California's attorney general to ease her scrutiny as the chain seeks buyers for its campuses in the state.
For-profit colleges are feeling more scrutiny and pressure from states and attorneys general over their financial practices.

Big data automation can mean writing dozens of scripts to process different
input sources and aligning them in order to consolidate all this data and
produce the required output.
Why exactly do you need big data for your enterprise projects? Many industry
observers have been noting that although a lot of enterprises like to claim
that their big data projects are aimed at "deriving insights" that replace
human intuition with data-driven alternatives, in reality though, the
objective appears to be automation. They point out that the role of data
scientists at a lot of organizations has got little to do with replacing
human intuition with big data. Instead, it is about augmenting human
experience by making it easier, faster and more efficient.
But automating big data processing is easier said than done and the biggest
problem here is that big data is well big. What thi... (more)
The question of who owns the data is partly determined by the kind of cloud
infrastructure that is in place for your business.
The advantages that cloud based hosting brings needs to reiteration. Cloud
hosting is infinitely scalable, needs radically lower CapEx and with
distributed hosting, it is much more fail-proof than data hosted on your
premise. But the recent legal spar between Apple and the US government has
brought the limelight once again back on the debate about ownership of data.
In the case of Apple, the fight is over decrypting the iPhone used by a
criminal in order... (more)
The biggest challenge to IOT is thus big data that requires an infrastructure
that is capable of processing billions or more data points each second.
If you thought e-commerce revolutionized the retail industry over the past
two decades, something much bigger is coming over the next ten years and that
is the Internet of Things (IoT). By deploying sensors and network
connectivity to everyday physical objects like cars, refrigerators,
television and buildings, it is possible to remotely connect, manage and
engage with these entities in ways that are not possible today.

Startup businesses are popping up at every opportunity. It seems that there
are endless ideas that could become potential businesses. However, not all
businesses will be successful. Here are some of the top traits of successful
startup businesses.
The Business Meets a Need
One of the most important factors of determining the success of a business is
the necessity for that business. Although it's unfortunate, great ideas will
sometimes end up as a failed business. There must be a need for the product
or service provided. Before you seek out investors, spend time analyzing the

Cloud servers bring with them distributed hosting and the ability to
anonymize identities and that has enabled cloud becoming a breeding ground
for criminals and even terrorists.
The cloud brings unique advantages to individual and business users alike and
this explains the exponential adoption rate that cloud has seen in the past
decade. There are also numerous security challenges with the cloud especially
in the areas of privacy and data theft that has concerned stakeholders for a
long time. However, with sophisticated encryption technologies, the instances
of cloud data getti... (more)
