A fate worse than death
Speaking in front of an audience is reportedly more fearsome than death. It doesn't have to be a crowd – simply another person.
But an audience of any size can be helpful in encouraging our creative expression and personal development – more so if we can be relaxed and authentic.
In his article Fear of Public Speaking Hardwired, Daniel J. DeNoon (WebMD Health News) notes "Fear of public speaking strikes some people harder — and differently — than others."
He quotes Paul L. Witt, PhD, assistant professor of communication studies at Texas Christian University, Fort Worth: "If speaking in public scares you, you aren't alone. It is even scarier than rattlesnakes. The idea of making a presentation in public is the No. 1 fear reported by people in the U.S. Anytime people make verbal remarks that need to be clear and persuasive, we find widespread reports of stage fright and nervousness."
DeNoon points out, "it's not just making a speech. Anxiety strikes any time we present our ideas in front of other people."
Social anxiety usually starts early in life
Anxiety can start early. Actor Kim Basinger relates an experience many of us can empathize with: "As a child, I was very shy. Painfully, excruciatingly shy. I hid a lot in my room. I was so terrified to read out loud in school that I had to have my mother ask my reading teacher not to call on me in class." – From post Is it a disorder, or just shyness?
In his article Social Anxiety Disorder: Myth or Misery?, Ron Pies, M.D. explains some of the origins of this sort of anxiety, and its potential relation to introversion/shyness and high sensitivity.
"You always hated it when the teacher called on you in class," Pies writes. "Even now, you get those big, fluttering 'butterflies' in your stomach before making a speech. You stay away from parties because you feel a little self-conscious around people. Your mom always described you as 'shy' and you admit you're a bit of a 'wallflower.'
Is social anxiety a disorder?
"So do you qualify as having a diagnosable mental disorder? Unless there's much more to your story, the answer is no."
He continues with an example of Gina, a patient described by psychologists Barbara and Gregory Markway, in their book, Painfully Shy.
"In school, Gina not only dreaded being called on by the teacher, she would also 'freeze up' and literally be unable to speak — a condition termed 'selective mutism.'
"Now, in her adult years, Gina never dates and is so anxious about how her co-workers will judge her, she won't eat lunch with them. Gina tells Dr. Markway that, 'I feel like I'm always under the spotlight, as if people are evaluating every word I say, every move I make. Sometimes I feel paralyzed by it. I just know I'm going to do or say something to make other disapprove of me.'
"Does Gina have a psychiatric disorder? Probably so, and it goes by the name of Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD). Some clinicians refer to this as 'Social Phobia,' but others reject this term. They point out that the generalized form of SAD often pervades the sufferer's life in ways that so-called simple phobias, such as an intense fear of spiders, do not."
Fear of rejection
Deanne Repich, the Founder of the National Institute of Anxiety and Stress, explains more about the fear and how to deal with it in her article Making Public Speaking a Breeze:
"When asked why they fear public speaking, most people say that they fear humiliation, embarrassment or judgment from others. In a nutshell, they fear rejection. Why is the fear of humiliation and embarrassment so strong? For most of us the idea of speaking in public triggers childhood memories of embarrassing times when we were made fun of and rejected by other kids in school.
"Picture this: One morning Jimmy decides to wear his new red outfit to school. Jimmy feels on top of the world as he walks to school in the new outfit. The moment Jimmy reaches the school door a kid from the 'popular' group points at Jimmy. He says: 'Look at Jimmy's pants! That's a sissy color. Jimmy's a sissy! Ha ha!' The 'popular' group laughs. Although Jimmy puts up a good front and laughs it off, on the inside he feels crushed and humiliated.
"Here's another scene that plays out in countless schools. The teacher asks a question. Magda's positive she knows the correct answer. She enthusiastically waves her arm, practically jumping out of her seat because she's so excited. Finally the teacher calls on her.
"Magda gives her brilliant answer — and guess what happens? The teacher says: 'No, that's not the answer I was looking for.' The room bursts into laughter. Magda shrinks back in her seat, hoping that the further down she slouches, the more invisible she'll become.
"Each of us has experienced embarrassment and rejection similar to Jimmy and Magda's. We carry these feelings of rejection with us as baggage when it comes time to give a speech or presentation."
Giftedness can add stress
Besides standing out "too much" for knowing more or being able to do more, highly creative and talented people are, according to research on giftedness, often susceptible to perfectionism and unreasonably high standards and expectations that can lead to exaggerated self-criticism, not to mention anxiety.
Lesley Sword, director of Gifted and Creative Services in Australia, finds that gifted children are "highly self critical and over reactive to the criticism of others. They express dissatisfaction with themselves; they see what 'ought to be' in themselves… They have a vision of perfectionism that they measure themselves against and they can become despondent sometimes even depressed, at their perceived failure." [From my article Being Creative and Self-critical.]
One form of that "failure" may be stumbling over some words when giving a presentation, which can lead to self-criticism and shame.
Shame can affect anyone's self-actualization, but may be especially potent for talented individuals, who often have high sensitivity and other qualities that can support feelings of being an outsider or unworthy.
Shame is connected with one's identity and sense of acceptance by others, and can disrupt and destabilize esteem and confidence in abilities, leading to a self-diminishing judgment: "If I feel this bad about myself, I must really be inferior." [More in my article Shame.]
Sing your speech
Deanne Repich makes several suggestions in her article Making Public Speaking a Breeze, including these:
"Practice singing your speech. When you sing you organize words (left brain activity). You also use musical notes and rhythms (right brain activity)…. Empower your nonverbal communication. Approximately ninety percent of our communication with others is nonverbal. Your presentation begins the moment you walk into a room."

Volkswagen Up! Concepts Shows Off its Versatility: Geneva Motor Show Preview
Volkswagen will be bringing their hip, new Up! model to the upcoming Geneva Motor Show in four concept flavors to show off its versatility. The four concepts include a Swiss Up!, Winter Up!, Orange x Up!, and Cargo Up!
The Swiss Up! concept will sport the Swiss flag's colors and a Tornado Red paint and contrasting white mirror caps. On the inside is a white dashboard, giving it a complete color scheme fitting for the Switzerland motor show. The Winter Up! will sport a white and blue theme while carrying a pair of snowboards on the roof. And to make it a snow-friendly car, the concept has a raised ride height, underbody protection, and an ESP with an electronic differential lock.
The bright Orange x Up! is a concept for "nighttime expeditions", according to VW and has built-in searchlights on its roof box. Lastly is the Cargo Up! which appears to be a concept that could make it into production. The rear seats have been removed for extra loading space and has a carrying capacity of almost 940 lbs. It also has extra underbody protection panels and a higher ride height to compensate for the extra weight from its cargo. A plexiglas sheet separates the driver from its cargo.

This review is from: ASUS Z9PA-D8 ATX Server Motherboard Dual LGA 2011 DDR3 1600/1333/1066
Pros: Motherboard has been working as expected since the last review
Cons: pci slots are running low
Other Thoughts: So last review I mentioned an issue with pre-post errors. Since that review I have received several additional components:
1. internal usb 3.0 pci card (SEDNA - PCI Express USB 3.0 4 Port Adapter)
2. ASUS MIO-892 sound card
3. Second intel cpu (using the same fan - true spirit 120m)
All components worked as expected with the motherboard. Additionally, after moving the gpu to a new slot ( from PCIE-2 to PCIE-4) I no longer saw Q-code 94! Note that the Q-code seemed to go away just by moving the gpu ( this issue was resolved before I received any other components).
I had opened an RMA with ASUS but they were not able to solve the problem for me (I'm still not sure what the origin of the problem is). They mostly told me to try different bios flags. The only difference between pcie-2 and pcie-4 is that pcie-2 shares the ASM 1480 with the pcie-8x/MIO slot (This is one slot, but should be used for your MIO soundcard if you get one) whereas pcie-4 shares its own ASM1480 with the regular 8x pcie-3 slot. I have no idea if this difference even matters, just an observation.
One other note is that if you need to get into the bios during boot I found that if you have a USB keyboard connected, it must be connected to USB 2.0 port 2 ( if looking at the manual on page 2-30 or section 2.8.1 this corresponds to the lower left port in the diagram). Perhaps this is just the keyboard I have, but it is an easy fix if this issue is encountered.
Otherwise this board is sufficient for my needs - I use it for physics simulations and when running on 16+ threads you barely notice on the UI side ( this probably has more to do with hardware beyond the motherboard, but is still a nice feature to look forward to if you pick one of these up). Also I don't understand intel "hyperthreading" magic but I do seem to get 10-15% speed up when I specify 32 threads instead of 16... Of course this could be a result of the way the software partitions/schedules work or the way the hardware handles it. Who knows.
This review is from: ASUS Z9PA-D8 ATX Server Motherboard Dual LGA 2011 DDR3 1600/1333/1066
Pros: Machine boots, appears kvm will work - not sure if I'll configure it though
Cost effective - a couple hundred less than the 2 or 3 other boards supporting dual lga 2011.
Booted from rear USB 3.0 easily - nice and fast.
Cons: Q-Code 94 when I had a USB device plugged in ( this is a pre-post code ). I simply unplugged the 2 onboard usb 2.0 connectors and it seemed to work. Can't say for certain that is the problem but for now that fixed it. It seems there is some kind of issue with IRQ sharing.
I'm going to have to open an RMA with ASUS about this issue and hopefully they can address it or perhaps its just a hardware limitation and nothing can be done about it. Anyways the rear usb ports seem to work so in the grand scheme of things this is not a huge setback.
Other Thoughts: The overall build if others want to know what worked:
CPU: 1x E5 2650 ( will be getting a second shortly now that I can confirm everything works)
Memory: 4x Kingston KVR16R11S4/4HC
GPU: 1x NVIDIA GTX 680
Disk: 2x Western Digital WD VelociRaptor 300GB 10000 RPM
Cooler: Thermalright True Spirit 120M - CPU stays around 45-50 Celcius (very tight fit, had to bend the fan connectors a little)
Case: BitFenix Shinobi XL ( waaay too big for the build but its nice and solid)
Power Supply: CORSAIR HX Series HX850
In retrospect I wish it had more USB 3.0 but really not that big of an issue...
This review is from: MSI 880GM-E41 AM3 AMD 880G HDMI Micro ATX AMD Motherboard
Pros: I ordered this mb not sure if esxi would run with it (I assumed the north bridge chipset was compatible). Low and behold it works great, currently have esxi 4.0 (4.1 is a pain to deal with... waiting for something nicer).
Anyways this board is great, works as expected, as a slot for the necessary intel nic. Haven't tried the software raid out - will probably just buy a real raid card. Cheap and works - like i like it.
Cons: I guess there could be more PCI slots but I mean there aren't any cons really (Why would I buy something, then complain about the features I was aware about, as I see in many reviews).
Other Thoughts: I wish they had a cheap 2 socket version of this board. Also I'll have to see how it holds up as I really start populating my vms.READ FULL REVIEW

Obviously things are much more expensive these days, both for building and for providing state-of-the-art technology; the Walnut Creek campus expansion will cost $621 million, funded through John Muir Health System reserves, hospital bonds and a $40 million capital campaign. The expanded facilities will be nearly paperless, filmless and wireless - the new patient rooms will even have bedside access to the Internet.
At the groundbreaking, I met Blackhawk resident Guy Henshaw, managing director of Henshaw/Vierra Management Counsel LLC, who is heading up the capital campaign. Henshaw lived in Mexico as a boy where his father was a geologist with the Hearst family. When the family moved to the Bay Area, his mother was thrilled with the medical facilities, Guy said, and she told the family to always support the wonderful hospitals that served them. "She became the head of volunteers at Alta Bates," he recalled.
Guy has lived all over the world with executive commercial banking positions. He and his wife Susan moved to Walnut Creek 30 years ago, and in 1990 he became president of the John Muir Health Foundation. The Henshaws bought their Blackhawk home a year ago. He said they loved the house because its extensive use of wood brought back memories of their years living in England. Gated communities fit their lifestyle of frequent traveling, Guy noted; they have another home in a gated golf community in Tucson where they visit once a month. He also likes the location of their Blackhawk home - it's at one end of Crow Canyon Road and they have grandchildren at the other end, in Castro Valley.
Henshaw pointed out that the last three chairmen of the board at John Muir Health Foundation were Danville residents. "I was chairman when we authorized the project in 2003 and 2004," he explained. "From 2005 to 2006, Ron Banducci was chair when all the planning was done. The current chair is the former Danville Mayor Don Richie. Both Don and Ron were great leaders - and were also helpful in getting me to be a Danville home owner, too."
He noted that so far the capital campaign has raised $27.5 million. The largest contributors are:
* $9.5 million from the Thomas J. Long Foundation: The new building will be called the Thomas J. and Muriel T. Long Patient Care Tower.
* $2.5 million from Rossmoor resident Theresa M. Caygill, who will have the Trauma/Emergency Services Department named after her.
* $2.5 million from the J.M. Long Foundation, which will name the new intensive care nursery.
Also, employees have collectively contributed $1.3 million, many through payroll deductions; and the physicians have given $1.5 million. The Walnut Creek Campus Auxiliary raised $2.5 million so the central courtyard in the main lobby will be named after it.
The expansion is increasing the number of beds from 324 to 416 and doubling emergency treatment rooms from 22 to 44, good news in case my husband ever picks up his scythe again. The weeds, by the way, became my chore. I joined the 20th century and went out back with an electric weed whacker, but my first time out, I whacked into a wasp hive. The resulting attack felt rather like a hatchet cleaving the top of my skull. My husband was away so my 10-year-old son removed the stingers, and I lay on the couch with ice on my head and throbbing hands. I probably should have gone to the emergency room. (After that we hired someone to cut the weeds.)

I believe the following stocks could be on the upside move, today, Wednesday April 18th, 2012, which could make for a nice short term gain for those who prefer short term swing trading.
Achillion (ACHN) Achillion will be releasing results of its Phase IIa clinical trials of ACH-1625 on April 18-22, at the International Liver Conference being hosted in Barcelona. ACH-1625 is an Hepatitis C virus (HCV) protease inhibitor.
Price moving factor: Achillion's release of this data should also have a price effect on stocks like Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMY), which shelled out $2 billion in cash to scoop up Inhibitex, maker of the hepatitis C treatment INX-189 in a transaction that carried a whopping 163% premium, and Gilead Sciences (GILD), which struck a deal to buy Pharmasset in November 2011 for $11 billion. Gilead paid $137 per share for the company, which seized wide attention for its work on new hepatitis C treatments that may do away with the need for interferon and create a new standard of care for the disease.
Gilead has taken on Pharmasset's PSI-7977, which has two late-stage studies involving genotype 2 and 3 patients. One study is comparing the oral therapy combined with ribavirin against the standard-of-care, pegylated interferon/ribavirin in treatment-naive patients. The second study is comparing PSI-7977 to a placebo in interferon-intolerant or ineligible patients. A third Phase III launches in the second half of 2012.
There is a large reward for the company that successfully gets the most effective Hep-C treatment to market first -- a multi-billion dollar market.
GTX (GTXI) engages in the discovery, development, and commercialization of small molecules for the treatment of cancer, cancer supportive care, and other serious medical conditions.
Price moving factor: Run-up to FDA decision on trial resumption of its drug Capesaris. Capesaris is a prostate cancer drug that chemically castrates prostate cancer patients. GTX discovered larger dosages of the drug caused some side effects, including the increased risk of blood clots.
The company's plans to administer lower doses of Capesaris throughout the remainder of the trial to address the FDA's concerns before the trials can officially continue. The FDA will decide whether GTX has demonstrated its drug is safe enough to allow the phase II trial to continue in 30 days.
I have heard that some bigger money players are accumulating this stock for the run-up catalyst event.
Xenoport (XNPT) focuses on developing and commercializing internally discovered product candidates that utilize the body's natural nutrient transport mechanisms to enhance the therapeutic benefits of drugs.
Price moving factor: PDUFA 6/9/12 for sNDA of Horizant for post-herpetic neuralgia (PHN).
Horizant utilizes naturally-occurring, high-capacity nutrient transporters in the gastrointestinal tract to generate active, efficient absorption into the body. Once absorbed, gabapentin enacarbil is rapidly converted into gabapentin, which binds to specific proteins that regulate neuronal activity, and is thereby thought to inhibit unnecessary excitatory neurological activity. Neuropathic pain is pain that results from damage to nerves. The damage may result from a variety of causes, including injury or illnesses such as diabetes, HIV and shingles.
In other words, Horizant is used to treat pain.
Horizon Pharma (HZNP) develops and commercializes medicines for the treatment of arthritis, pain, and inflammatory diseases.
Price moving factor: PDUFA 7/26/12 of LODOTRA, a proprietary modified delayed-release formulation of prednisone, for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis in adults.
Insiders have been buying up a lot of its company's shares. I recently sold Horizon as I reached my short term target price. I am considering trading it again. I like Horizon quite a bit and believe it has longer term potential if LODOTRA gains approval.
Protalix BioTherapeutics (PLX) focuses on the development and commercialization of recombinant therapeutic proteins based on its proprietary ProCellEx protein expression system in the United States.
Price moving factor: PDUFA 5/1/12 of Taligluerase for Gaucher disease.
Taligluerase is a plant cell-expressed recombinant glucocerebrosidase enzyme for the potential treatment of Gaucher disease. Protalix is partnered with Pfizer (PFE) for the exclusive worldwide commercialization of taliglucerase alfa in all territories, except in Israel, where Protalix has retained exclusive rights. Protalix completed the pivotal Phase 3 trial, and patients from the pivotal study were enrolled into an extension study, with some patients being treated for greater than three years. Taliglucerase alfa has been granted orphan drug designation by both the FDA and the European Medicines Agency.
iBio (IBIO) engages in the development and commercialization of vaccines and therapeutic proteins through its proprietary technology, the iBioLaunch platform. Its product portfolio consists of seasonal and H1N1 influenza vaccines for the seasonal influenza virus strains; pandemic avian influenza vaccine for the pathogenic avian influenza viruses; and therapeutic vaccines for human papilloma virus.
Price moving factor: Protalix's PDUFA 5/1/12 of Taligluerase for Gaucher disease.
iBio is the only other known company with a listing on the American stock market with similar technology, and in my opinion, has more long term upside appreciation potential than Protalix. iBio's technology platform is named iBioLaunch.
I recently wrote a feature article where I get in-depth on why I believe iBio is a very strong speculative long term investment.
Honorable price mover mentions:
pSivida (PSDV): Looks like serious accumulation occurring over the last 2 weeks, possible break-out coming. I have a feature article coming out on pSivida today.
Codexis (CDXS): I recently did a feature article on this interesting company that still trades near its 52 week low.
Antares Pharma (AIS) : Feature article coming out today with 10 reasons why I believe Antares will be bought out soon.
Disclosure: I am long AIS.

INJURED striker Ranko Despotovic faces a fitness race to feature again this season as he bids to earn a new deal with Sydney FC.
After the Serbian striker hurt his knee at training on Wednesday, FC chief executive Tony Pignata admitted that no talks had been held about his future and would "see how it all pans out".
After falling awkwardly Despotovic is expected to be out for up to four weeks, which would take him perilously close to the end of the season.
The 31-year-old has scored six goals in 16 games for the Sky Blues since arriving at the club in November.
Despotovic has spoken of his desire to remain in Sydney next season.
But Pignata insists there no contract talks with Despotovic have been discussed yet.
"We're just going to see how it all pans out this season," the Sky Blues CEO said.
His injury couldn't have come at a worse time for him as Sydney aim to secure their spot in the top six, starting with tonight's clash with Brisbane Roar at Allianz Stadium.
Sydney have lost four of their last five games they've played against Brisbane, but FC go into the clash boosted by last weekend's derby win over Western Sydney.

"The 3D market is at a very interesting point, where some technologies are being utilized for short-run manufacturing, not just prototyping," said Tim Greene, research director in IDC's Hardcopy Solutions Group.

It's easy enough before the season starts to make grand proclamations because no one (except the person making them) will ever remember what those proclamations were when October rolls around.
Last week, I asked Fantasy Windup readers for some of their bold predictions for the upcoming season -- and there were some pretty good responses.
1. ____________ will come from out of nowhere to hit 30+ home runs this season
Reader answers: Dayan Viciedo (above), Casper Wells, Brennan Boesch, Ike Davis, Cody Ross
I revealed my out-on-a-limb predictions in my Sports Weekly column -- and this one has hit a small speed bump. My future 30-homer hitter Bryan LaHair didn't play in the Cubs opener because a balky back.
2. ____________ will take a giant step forward and be one of the top five fantasy pitchers in the majors this season.
Madison Bumgarner was named on more than one reader ballot. I can see that happening. In fact, I almost picked him myself before settling on Brandon Morrow. Ricky Romero, Mike Minor and C.J. Wilson also received reader support.
3. ____________ will take a giant step forward and will be one of the top 10 fantasy hitters in the majors this season.
Brett Lawrie was the readers' choice, while Giancarlo Stanton, Pablo Sandoval and Sean Rodriguez (very bold! I like it) also received support.
Bonus predictions:
Chris Klein - Drew Smyly will have more wins than Michael Pineda.
Michael Wahl - Phil Hughes and Hiroki Kuroda both beat C.C. Sabathia in ERA.
Kyle Hornfeck -Adam Dunn comes back and hits 40-45 home runs
Michael Signoracci - Dee Gordon steals 100 bases (Nice! I thought I was bold picking him to steal 80.)
Suzz Batter - Henderson Álvarez will get 13+ wins while get his ERA below 3.30
Thanks to all the readers who played along at home!
Meanwhile, folks in the fantasy industry are also weighing in. Mike Podhorzer of FanGraphs offers his 10 bold predictions, then comes back with 10 more.
Steve's been with USA TODAY in one form or another since 1993. He started at USATODAY.com in 1996, becoming the website's baseball editor in 1999, and has written the fantasy baseball column for Sports Weekly since 2006. Follow him on Twitter: @sgardnerUSAT.

Chef Jamie Oliver's 'Mum' Saves Ducks
Jamie Oliver's mom, Sally, is a gourmet in her own right, with a restaurant, The Cricketers, in the U.K. After PETA U.K. learned that she was serving foie gras, they contacted "The Naked Chef's" mom and told her the naked truth about the suffering of ducks and geese who are slated to be killed to produce this gastronomical atrocity, and she quickly pledged never to serve it again.
People with rescued companion ducks say that the animals have a zest for life that rivals that of any puppy or toddler. Quackers and Crackers (pictured above), two such ducks whom PETA rescued from a life of deprivation and neglect, love to play in the sprinkler with their guardian's children, blow bubbles in the mud, and engage in mock hay-throwing battles. On foie gras farms, ducks like Quackers and Crackers are force-fed four times a day until their livers swell to as much as 10 to 12 times their normal size. They never, ever get to swim or splash in the water, something that ducks naturally desire to do every day.
Foie gras is so inhumane that its production has been banned in the U.K. and several other countries and in the state of California. Until the rest of the U.S. follows suit, it's up to us to speak out and ask restaurants and stores not to sell this delicacy of despair.
Written by Michelle Sherrow
Commenting is closed.
Dont think this is going to make me like Jamie Oliver, i always thought he actually cared about animal welfare untill i saw on PETA he castrated a bull without anesthetic for one his food programmes, i think sainsbury's stopped his adverts for awhile due to public outrage so dont think it makes any difference if the rest of his family are trying to make out they care for animals.

The information on this page pertains to the 2016 Summer School. We will post the updated information on the August 2017 program as soon as we receive it in early 2017. The information presently posted should be understood only as a general guide, and there may be important changes when this page and application materials are updated. For that reason we ask that you do not apply until the new information is available.
The Ontario/Baden-Württemberg Student Exchange Program offers scholarships to students from Ontario universities who are selected by the OBW Program to participate in the Internationale Bodensee Hochschule (International Lake Constance Summer School).
The IBH is a four-week summer program in which students from around the world study German and learn about the cultures of the German-speaking countries that surround Lake Constance: Austria, Germany, Liechtenstein, and Switzerland. It offers a unique, excellent, and highly enjoyable learning experience in the classroom, as in its excursions to places of interest in the region and its extracurricular program. Lake Constance lies at the centre of one of the most interesting, beautiful, and culturally rich areas of Europe.
Successful applicants will receive a scholarship in the amount of $1,000 to help cover expenses during the course. These scholarships are from funds provided by the Ontario Ministry of Training, Colleges, and Universities. Please see the detailed information below on how the scholarship is paid.
There is no German-language prerequisite for successful participation in the IBH. Classes are offered at various levels, including at the beginners' level. Students are assigned to classes following a placement test. Students from participating Ontario universities may apply who intend either:
- to participate in the IBH as a stand-alone experience and then return to their studies in Ontario; or
- to participate in the IBH in preparation for a longer stay in Baden-Württemberg as a student in the "traditional" OBW student exchange. (Please note, however, that students who are finishing or have previously completed a longer period of exchange study (incl. the Summer Research Program) in Baden-Württemberg are ineligible to apply.)
Students who wish to have the IBH credit transferred to their academic record in Ontario should seek advice from their home university's International Student Exchange Office and/or their academic counselors. Credit transfer is at the sole discretion of each student's home university.
The IBH is a cooperative venture of 30 postsecondary institutions in the four countries surrounding Lake Constance. It takes place at the University of Konstanz, in Germany, from where the OBW program is coordinated on the Baden-Württemberg side, and where many Ontario students since 1990 have spent a wonderful exchange year. Full information on all aspects of the Internationale Bodensee Hochschule can be found on the IBH section of the University of Konstanz website.
To be eligible, an applicant must:
- be a citizen or permanent resident of Canada;
- be pursuing a degree at a member university in the OBW consortium (Carleton, Guelph, Laurentian, Nipissing, Ottawa, Queen's, Ryerson, Trent, Waterloo, Western, Windsor, York);
- be registered at that university in the academic year preceding participation in the IBH; and
- be continuing in the same academic program in the academic year following participation.
Students who have participated in the IBH in an earlier year are ineligible to apply in the current year.
How to Apply
To apply, you must:
- download, complete, print out, and sign the OBW-specific 2016 IBH application form;
- write an explanation of your reasons for wishing to participate in this program (max. 1 page, double-spaced);
- provide a current academic transcript; and
- submit your complete application to your home university's International Student Exchange Office; please note that you have to meet the application deadline set by your university's International Office.
- You must apply through the Internaional Student Exchange Office of your home university. Please do NOT submit your own application directly to either the IBH or the OBW office.
- If you are accepted by OBW to participate in the IBH program, we will send you information on the IBH registration process in place at the University of Konstanz. Please do NOT attempt to register directly with the IBH before receiving confirmation of the successful outcome of your OBW-specific application.
Acceptance and Scholarship Details
OBW will, as soon as the results are finalized, advise your home university of the outcome of your application. If your application is successful, your name will be on a list that we send to the Univesity of Konstanz, and we will be in touch with you with further paperwork and instructions, including advising that you should at that point register directly online with the IBH at the University of Konstanz. This step must be completed by May 16, 2016.
For OBW participants in the IBH, special conditions apply with regard to the required payment of fees to the University of Konstanz.
- Unlike other participants, you are required to pay directly to Konstanz only the accommodation fee of 360€, assuming you wish to reserve a residence room, and the deadline for that payment to have been received in Konstanz is May 30, 2016.
Regarding the IBH Participation Fee and the OBW Scholarship, the following arrangements apply:
- In order to minimize the up-front expenses for OBW participants, the University of Konstanz has for 2016 kindly agreed to an arrangement whereby OBW will pay the IBH Participation Fee of 380€ on your behalf.
- OBW will then deduct an equivalent amount, according to the exchange rate we are charged, from the amount of scholarship.
- OBW will pay to you the balance after this deduction (i.e., $1,000, minus the dollar equivalent of 380€). Please be aware that strict provincial rules allow us to initiate this payment through York University's financial department (where our accounts are kept) only after you have arrived and registered in Konstanz. It is important that you understand that you will therefore most likely have access to these funds only after your return to Ontario.
Information and Application Forms
- 2016 OBW-specific IBH application form (download)
- 2016 IBH information (with downloadable summary)
- 2016 IBH academic and registration information
- 2016 IBH registration form (for use only after notification of acceptance by OBW!)

Last year, Hilton began testing a program to give Hilton HHonors members a discount when booking stays directly through the hotel chain rather than using a third-party service like Priceline or a travel agent. While the discounted rates were originally only available in a handful of cities, the program has since expanded to include more than 4,500 properties worldwide. The amount of savings for your stay ultimately depends on which days you're booking — if you're traveling on weekdays, you'll get a 3% discount, while you get 10% off on Friday-Saturday stays. It's probably still best to shop around, but keep in mind that stays purchased through third parties might not be eligible for all the perks that a direct booking with Hilton offers. Additionally, you might still be better off booking with other discounts, such as AAA rate, through the Hilton site. If you are booking directly through Hilton (or another service that provides full benefits when booking), there are also a few credit cards that offer extra perks. You can save quite a bit on longer stays with 4th Night Free from Citi Prestige, for example, and Amex Platinum members get complimentary Gold status in the HHonors program. Thanks to TPG reader Leigh R., who shared this news tip by emailing firstname.lastname@example.com. We'll be sending out a $200 Visa gift card as a token of our appreciation.

Sometimes in your a life a pie comes along that actually changes your life.
Mcdougalls Uppercrust pies are such a pie.
Now i have eaten pies from coast to coast with taters and toast but never has a pie excited my tastebuds with wild unrelenting bursts of orgasmic flavour.
Get in me belly !!
I'd like to take this opportunity to thank the good people at Mcdougalls for bringing this culinary gift to my life and at a price that hard to beat it wont hurt the coffers either.
5 stars just aint enough !!!

A Renegade Trawler, Hunted For 10,000 Miles By Vigilantes
It was an unexpected end to an extraordinary chase. For 110 days and more than 10,000 nautical miles across two seas and three oceans, the Bob Barker and a companion ship, both operated by the environmental organization Sea Shepherd, had trailed the trawler, with the three captains close enough to watch one another's cigarette breaks and on-deck workout routines. In an epic game of cat-and-mouse, the ships maneuvered through an obstacle course of giant ice floes, endured a cyclone-like storm, faced clashes between opposing crews and nearly collided in what became the longest pursuit of an illegal fishing vessel in history.

Kenya's biggest elephant killed by poachers
I am appalled at what that means – that the survival skills that the bull has painstakingly learnt over half a century have been rendered useless by the poachers' use of mass-produced Chinese goods; GPS smart-phones, cheap motorcycles and night vision goggles. I think the old bull knows that poachers want his tusks, and I hate that he knows. More than anything, I hate the thought that poachers are now closing in on one of the world's most iconic elephants.The Guardian [more inside]
The Dead Zoo Gang "Over the last several years, millions of dollars worth of antique rhino horns have been stolen from natural history museum collections around the world.

Subspecies Extinction Alert
DNA analysis has confirmed the death, by poaching, of the last Javan rhino in Vietnam. This marks the official extinction of the Vietnamese subspecies of Javan rhinoceros.

World Rhinoceros Day!
"In March 2012, following the brutal attack of three rhinos by poachers seeking horn, Dr. William Fowlds, the wildlife veterinarian treating the rhinos, contacted WitmerLab for insight into the anatomical structure of the horn, skull, and nasal cavity of rhinos. The poachers had used machetes to hack off the horns, leaving deep wounds in the face and exposing the delicate mucous membranes of the paranasal air sinuses and nasal cavity." The result of this partnership was the Visible Interactive Rhino. For more rhinoceros anatomy, check out photos from a rhinoceros dissection from What's in John's Freezer? (previously). [more inside]

Agony and Ivory
Agony and Ivory. "Highly emotional and completely guileless, elephants mourn their dead—and across Africa, they are grieving daily as demand from China's 'suddenly wealthy' has driven the price of ivory to $700 a pound or more. With tens of thousands of elephants being slaughtered each year for their tusks, raising the specter of an 'extinction vortex,' Alex Shoumatoff travels from Kenya to Seattle to Guangzhou, China, to expose those who are guilty in the massacre—and recognize those who are determined to stop it."
