This event to be held on 21 June 2016 in Lisbon, Portugal, will discuss the preliminary findings of the OECD project "Resilient Cities" and share cities' experience on enhancing resilience.
11th edition of Trento Festival of Economics: the arena where economists, political and institutional stakeholders, researchers and journalists from all over the world, will exchange views and investigate the topic "Where growth takes place".
The OECD LEED Programme launches this "Call for Initiatives" to extract what local authorities and other actors know works, what the new scenario is demanding and how equipped they are to respond. We are interested in learning from the experiences of EU member countries, the wider OECD area as well as other countries.
Transport infrastructure opens new routes and creates connections. It increases prosperity by generating economic opportunities, reducing transport costs and supporting agglomeration economies. However, the increased traffic flows also generate environmental and social costs. In Korea, the amount of paved roads increased dramatically between 1951 and 2014, from 580 kilometres to over 87 000 kilometres. This expansion of Korea's expressway, highway and major road network has created benefits for cities and rural areas across the country, contributing to both economic growth and inclusiveness. This rapid development of road infrastructure and motorisation has also resulted in relatively high traffic fatality rates. This report combines empirical research on the relationship between road infrastructure, inclusive economic development and traffic safety with an assessment of policies and governance structures to help governments find ways to create effective, safe and inclusive transport infrastructures.
This year the Forum will focus on creativity, jobs and local development. We will examine how localities can support culture and creative industries as a source of knowledge and job creation and how the creative industry can act as a powerful driving force areas such as tourism, urban regeneration, and social inclusion.
Look at Japan and you see the future of many OECD countries. Extreme demographic shifts are re-sculpting the country in dramatic ways, defining future challenges and demanding new policy responses. Blog by Bill Below, on the challenges faced and the opportunities available.
Japan's commitment to territorial development will be crucial in tackling the urgent challenge of population ageing and shrinking – a challenge which is the main focus of this report.
With 25 years of sluggish economic growth, Japan's per capita income has fallen from a level matching the average of the top half of OECD countries in the early 1990s to 14% below that today. Weak growth, together with rapid population ageing, has driven public debt into uncharted territory. Revitalising growth is thus the top priority for the Japanese government. With the labour force shrinking more rapidly than the population, per capita output can only grow through improvements in labour productivity and labour force participation. Japan's highly-skilled labour force and its technological leadership can help close the gap with leading OECD countries in per capita income. But broad-based structural reforms, as envisaged in the third arrow of Abenomics, are needed to allow these strengths to fully achieve their potential. The initial impact of Abenomics in 2013 was impressive, and the reform process needs to continue.
Japan is embarked on a demographic transition without precedent in human history: the population is both declining and ageing rapidly. This raises important questions about the country's future economic geography, as public policies will need both to respond to these shifts and also to shape them. Demographic change will have particularly important implications for the settlement pattern of the country, and this, in turn, will affect Japan's ability to sustain economic growth and the well-being of its citizens. This Review therefore focuses on the spatial implications of demographic change and the response of spatial policies to it, particularly as these interact with other policies aimed at sustaining the productivity growth that a "super-ageing" Japan will need in order to maintain its future prosperity. The Japanese authorities have recently put in place a complex package of long-term spatial and structural policies aimed at meeting this challenge. Their experience should be of first-order interest to other OECD countries, as most face the prospect of rapid population ageing and many are also projected to experience significant population decline over the coming decades.
Japan must make revitalising growth its number one priority with reforms to boost productivity and encourage more women and older people into jobs to compensate for its rapidly shrinking labour force, according to the OECD.

Well. Our family of three ate for $43.05. Buffet style. The kimchi was way sour. Our family visits chinese buffets regularly. This buffet was not very good. A few things were good.(the green beans..potatoes) The rice noodles tasted like Ramen. Rice was dry. No refills were brought. And while I paid the waitress stared at my ticket as I wrote the tip. :( I tipped four dollars = 47.05. I felt pressured. I'm a nice person so yeah I tipped.
Dishes Tried:
I personally ate
Green beans-ok
fruit-not cold. pineapple gross
rice-way to dry-not fresh
rice noodles-tasted like ramen-not good
My boyfriend and I decided to drive down I Drive for dinner, and decided on Mei Asian Bistro. It had the typical fake atmosphere with the employees (family members) dressed in fake costumes. The buffet itself was horrible, food was cold, and had obviously been sitting out for quite a while. The selection was not great. The real kicker was when the bill arrived. with tax and drinks 32.90 for 2 people. Outrageous!!! For that price we could have eaten at a niceer restaurant like Kobe, or other nice Chinese restaurants near by. This place is a joke, and I would not recommend it to anyone visiting the area, or even locals looking for something different.

This is a multi part story. I do not know how many parts yet, all I know is that if they are enjoyed, then I will keep writing them. Also keep in mind this is all fake. If you do not like the type of stories where husbands and wives cheat or swing please do not read any further and please do not leave any lame comments about how I am a weak person for thinking these things.
It was the start to a very warm summer in Phoenix. It was only June and we had already seen more days over 100 degrees than I ever remembered having. I lived in an upscale neighborhood and had been there for over a decade. My house was at the end of the cul'de sac and was the largest on in the neighborhood. I worked in the real estate investment field, purchasing real estate and packaging it all together and sold shares to private investors and had made a very comfortable living off of it.
I met my wife when I was looking for a personal secretary. She was the first to apply and the last I interviewed. She was a looker and thats all I needed in a wife. I knew she was not into the relationship only because she loved me. I knew she was okay with all the money I brought in. It was a marriage of convenience. I needed someone to attend all my work functions with me, and she needed a stable lifestyle.
I can't say that I didn't enjoy the sex though. Man she was a cougar in the sack. She would do pretty much anything I asked her to do. If I needed a blow job, she would gladly drop what she was doing and come over to suck my cock. In fact, I had used her a few times to blow some of my biggest investors. I knew that she was messing around with guys anyway, so why not use it to my advantage.
Years after we got married, my wife and I moved into our current house. It was huge. There was the biggest swimming pool you have ever seen, along with a view to die for. We enjoyed the neighbors, but it seemed they would come and go and we wouldn't exactly get to know them. With the exception of the Potter family. They moved in right before my wife and I did. They had two kids. The two girls were Jenna, 8, and Amber 3.
The mother, Stacey, was very nice. She was modest person. She always wore a one piece bathing suite anytime they came over to swim. I always had the feeling that she wasn't confident in her figure. I had seen pictures of her before kids and she looked phenomenal.
The father, Brad, was a huge asshole. He treated Stacey and the kids like his own assistant. It was irritating at times and provided a lot of awkward moments with us. I also knew that he was never faithful to Stacey. There were many tell tale signs of his infidelity.
One was that I saw my wife and Brad fucking in our pool. I was supposed to be out to dinner with an investor, but he ended up going to a ball game. So I headed back home and pulled into the garage, walked upstairs to change. When I glanced out the window into the pool, I saw my wife standing at the edge of the pool with her tits bouncing back and forth while Brad was behind her slamming his tiny dick in and out of her. I watched for a few minutes, how could I not? My wife in the throes of passion is enough to turn any queer straight.
Anyway, the second sign that told me Brad was a cheater was I was up late one night, and was sitting on my front porch when I saw a large, big breasted woman sprint half naked out of the Potters house and jump into a car zooming away as fast as possible when just a few seconds later Stacey pulls into view. It was easy to figure out what had happened there.
Throughout the years of living next to the Potters, we eventually got to know their kids very well. They would help us do yard work around the house or help me with small business projects such as stuffing envelopes. Both my wife and I grew very fond of the two girls. When Jenna got older, she began to blossom into a very stunning young lady. It seemed almost every weekend she would have a new guy at her house taking her on dates.
Brad never seemed to care about what was happening with his daughter. Eventually, Jenna would come over to our house and vent to us about her life. Whether it be her parents, school, boys or any other type of events, she always knew we would listen.
After Jenna graduated from high school, she chose to go to the University of Colorado. We spent a little time with her before she left, throwing her going away party in our backyard. She had all of her friends over and it made for a very interesting night. Having half naked 18 year olds running around was a sight for me to see. I also noticed how many of the young men were checking out my wife. I wondered if any would be lucky enough to see what little she left up to their imagination.
Jenna headed to college and we hardly heard from her with the occasional email letting us know of her most recent accomplishments. When she was able to come back home for the holidays, I always seemed to be out of town or unavailable.
One May morning, I was up watching the news and heard a knocking at the door. It was Jenna. But it was not the Jenna I remembered. I had always thought of her as the kid next door. But now, she was a fox. Her breasts must have grown two full cups while she was away. And their was no sign of the freshman 15! She looked great!
I answered the door and she ran in and gave me a hug. I told her to sit down and tell me all about her experiences at CU. She went on and on for about an hour, which gave me plenty of time to check every inch of her out. Finally, once she had finished, she got up, gave me another hug and took off. I didn't think I was going to be seeing much more of her because she had to catch up with all her other old friends. Boy was I wrong!
Later that night, my wife was out doing some shopping and I was reading the news paper, I got another knock on the door. I went to get it and it was Jenna again. I asked her what was up, she looked a littler nervous. She asked to come in, so I of course let her in and told her to go sit on the couch. I followed her in, reluctantly checking out her fine ass swaying right in front of me. I sat down in my favorite spot on the couch. Expecting Jenna to sit across from me, I was a little surprised when she sat down right next to me. I could feel the heat from her toned legs just an inch from mine.
I told her that she was making me nervous and to let me know what was going on.
"My friends and I are having a party tonight. There are going to be a lot of my old friends there."
I said, "That's great, do you need a ride or something?"
"Well, in away, yes. You see, we have no one that is 21. We are all 19 and can not buy any alcohol"
I finally understood why she was nervous. She wanted me to go buy her friends the alcohol they needed for the party. I however, was a little skeptical about the situation. I did not want to get in trouble for buying alcohol for minors, especially in my line of work.
I told her "Jenna, I am really sorry. If I did this for you and you got caught, it would all fall back on me. And I can't have that trouble."
"Well I promise that no one other than me will ever find out it was you that got us the alcohol. I have all the money right here for everything we need."
I thought about it for a minute. "How do I know that if you get caught, you wouldn't rat me out?"
She reached over to me, and put her hand on my leg. She looked me in the eyes and slowly began moving her way up towards my now throbbing dick.
She said "If I fuck you, will you buy us the booze?"
I really had no idea what to say. Here I had this 19 year old smokin hot girl wanting to fuck me, just so I would buy her and her friends booze...
She pulled off my pants and said, "I take this as a yes"
She got down on her knees in front of me as she finished pulling my pants off. At the time I didn't have any underwear on, so my dick sprang free. She licked her lips as she used both of her hands to jerk me off. I was in heaven. She was great at working my cock with her hands, but I made a mental note to have my wife show her how it is really done.
She then leaned down, opening her mouth bringing my dick into her mouth. I could tell she had done this before. She would go all the way down to the base of my dick, and come back up real slow, the whole time playing with my balls with one hand. She licked and sucked my cock for 10 or more minutes until I pulled her up.
I began undressing her, eager to see what the clothes had hidden beneath them. First I worked her shirt over her head revealing the perfect set of tits. I couldn't help but to stuff one in my mouth right away. While I was sucking, I pulled her pants down and off of her legs, the whole way feeling her now naked body against my hands. Her legs were so firm and had recently been shaved.
I got her pants off, and worked my hands back up towards her pussy. Once I got there, I was not disappointed in what I found. She had shaved all her hair off and was completely bare. Feeling that almost put me over the edge. I finally took my mouth off of her breast, and she grabbed hold of my dick and guided it to the opening of her pussy. I could hardly stand it anymore. I tried so hard to push up into her, but she was strong enough to hold me down only putting an inch of my dick inside of her.
I said "If you don't give me your fucking pussy right now, the deal is off!"
And I don't think she wanted to risk finding out if I was telling the truth. She dropped herself on top of me slamming my whole cock into her in one rough motion. That set the tone for the rest of the session. She fucked me like there was no tomorrow. She rocked back and forth on me while I was still sitting on the couch and then would raise up and down as hard and as fast as she could to get my dick as far inside of her as possible. Eventually, I wanted the control, so I pushed her up and laid her on her hands and knees on the couch and began fucking her from behind.
I enjoyed fucking Jenna for awhile and just watching her young ass slap against my dick. In and out, in and out. Finally, I couldn't hold it anymore, and I pulled out. As soon as I pulled out, Jenna had turned around and wrapped her beautiful young mouth around my dick and sucked me clean.
She asked "Well, are you going to follow through on your side of the deal?"
I smiled at her and told her of course I would. She gave me a list of all the items she needed and I left her sitting on my couch. I went to the nearest liquor store, got all the items I needed and had a few extra bucks left, so I bought myself a six pack from the craft beer section and headed back home.
When I got there, I left everything but my six pack in the garage for Jenna to retrieve whenever she needed it. I walked into the house and found my wife sitting on the couch next to Jenna just chatting away. My wife looked at my like she knew something had happened and had been trying to get it out of Jenna but wasn't having any success.
Jenna jumped up, said her goodbyes to us and left through the garage. My wife looked like she wanted to say something but didn't. Later that night, before I headed to bed, I checked the garage and sure enough, all the liquor was gone. I hoped that Jenna would keep her word.
I went upstairs to find my wife lying in bed naked waiting for me. I got in next to her and she immediately went straight for my dick. As soon as she tasted it, she looked up at me.
She said "Am I going to be able to be apart of whatever happened next time?"

About 15 years ago, I started writing professionally. I went freelance immediately after my first child was born, a decade ago, and I've worked from home ever since. Yeah, I know: living the dream. Trust me, it's not quite as glamorous as it sounds, and I spend a lot of time juggling kids and computers and feeling like I'm not giving 100% to either side of my life.
Parents -- and moms in particular -- often suffer from the idea that we have to do everything ourselves. It's hard to relinquish control of, well, anything, at times. But just as the best managers
know how to delegate effectively, it's an important skill for parents to learn, too. I started, as many of us do, by hiring someone else to clean my house.
Knowing that someone else would scrub the toilets was fantastic, but it still didn't solve the problem of giving the proper attention to my infant daughter and still fitting in a few hours of work
each week. So I hired a babysitter for three hours every morning. And for the next three years, that was a perfect arrangement.
Fast forward to today. I have four children and a fifth due next month, a thriving freelance writing business, and a lot to do. Recently, I was forced to call a client and ask for an extension on a
deadline, which was a huge blow to my professional ego. And that's when I decided that the time had come to call in reinforcements.
A lot of my writing depends on research. I have to track down sources and schedule times to speak with them. I have to find relevant information. I have to keep up with specific industry trends.
And when I put on my mom hat, I have to make sure the broken home appliances get repaired, the incorrect cable bill is adjusted, the summer Crocs are ordered for the kids. There's a lot to do
around here, and it's not always easy to keep up with everything.
So last week, I hired a virtual assistant to lighten my load. My husband thinks I'm nuts. And that might be true, but I still think this was a pretty smart move. I spent about an hour writing up a
document detailing the tasks I want my assistant to handle, starting with some research for the project I'm stalled on.
Yes, it took me about 30 minutes to explain exactly what research I want him to get, and what to do with it. But now he'll spend 8 to 12 hours doing that research, which frees me up to spend the
week between school and camp with my kids.
I also outsourced some regular, recurring tasks: researching specific topics I cover regularly, keeping my invoices up to date, reading press releases and forwarding me only the relevant ones, and
so on.
And, in a stroke of pure genius, I also gave him my wishlist tasks -- personal tasks unrelated to work, but that need to be taken care of. And since they've been on my to-do list for an average of
6 months, the chances of my tacking them are pretty low. Highlights: Call Corelle and have my broken bowls replaced under warranty. Call KitchenAid and get the knob on my downdraft vent replaced.
Find a local company to come and seal all of my air conditioning ducts so that the AC works more effectively.
It's true -- I'm paying someone to do something I could do myself. But I also pay the cleaning lady, the gardener, and the private school my children attend. And to me, the price is right, right
now. I decided I had about 20 hours of work/personal tasks to outsource each week, at least in the short term. So I prepaid for 160 hours to be used over the next 8 weeks, and it's costing me about
$7 per hour.
Think about it: would you rather spend two hours on hold to downgrade your cell phone plan, or pay someone else $20 to do it while you take your kids to the zoo? Relinquishing control can be hard.
But the freedom you'll gain is totally worth it -- to me.
In a month, I'll report back here on the results of my experiment, and I'll provide a list of sources of personal assistants for parents. In the meantime, if you have experiences of your own to
share, we'd love to hear them in the comments.

Ellis County Press
Friday, July 31, 2009
WAXAHACHIE, TEXAS – We're seeing an increase in churches and law enforcement comingling and working together on "safety" and all that, but is there an underlying motive? The Federal Emergency Management Agency, according to Infowars.com, has already been training pastors to help quell dissent to "anti-government" activists.
It's happening in Ellis County on September 29, where the ECSO and other law enforcement agents will be conducting an all-day seminar on preparing disaster plans and hearing from experts from other churches – such as Wedgewood Baptist in Fort Worth, the location of a church shooting rampage several years ago – and community members.
First Baptist Church of Waxahachie is hosting the event, which will begin at 9 a.m. and end at 5 p.m.

What an earphone for the price you pay!
Pros: Nicely balanced; bass monster; big soundstage; very engaging; worth every penny if you are a bass head.
Cons: Bloated bass(can be ignored easily);will get sibilant at times; microphonics.
If you are looking for a bass monster, you should not overlook this earphone. The ''monster bass'' you are going to get from this earphone will not even be delivered by some expensive "headphones''. I have owned many headphones and earphones over the years, and this is the earphone that comes back to my mind again and again. The bass quantity is just amazing without sacrificing the mids and the highs; a real pleasure to listen to with such a big soundstage and hefty bass. If you are fine with a little bit bloated bass and sibilance at times, then this is a great choice. This earphone has microphonics and I don't recommend this if you are running around ''all the time'',haha. At home, it...

Lindsay Lohan was arrested early Wednesday morning in New York, accused of leaving the scene of an accident, police said.
A spokesman for the New York Police Department told CNN the actress was arrested around 2:30 a.m. Wednesday and taken to New York's 10th Precinct police station, where she was processed and released on her own recognizance. CNN has reached out to Lohan's rep for comment.
According to police, Lohan was entering the parking area of the Dream Hotel shortly after midnight in her 2010 Porsche Cayenne. Police said the hotel shares a driveway with a restaurant and that as Lohan was entering she allegedly hit a restaurant employee.
Police allege she continued into the driveway and parked her car, leaving the scene of the accident. Lohan was charged with leaving the scene. Police said drugs and alcohol are not suspected in the accident.
FULL STORYBut...but...she's Lindsay Lohan.
How dare they arrest her?
Why they don't take her license away for life is beyond me.
What does BFD mean?
You mean this waste of a human is still tramping around?!
Ah, did it occur to anyone that she may not have realized she hit the dude? And did anyone stop to think, that if you could somehow step in front of a slow moving celebrity's car, it might just be worth a little cash? And since it happened on private property in the middle of the night, it's a civil matter ...he said...she said.....And since when do violent hit and run drivers park their cars at the crime scene and go to their hotel rooms?
I don't recall anyone saying it was a violent hit and run; and although she may have been unaware of it, that doen't lessen her culpability.
I would assume there would be a good reason for arresting her; damage to her car, hair/blood/skin on the car, if it were the employee hit.
Matching damage if it were another car she hit.
Since when does one park their car, leave a crime scene, and go into their hotel room?
One who thinks they are above the law, as this young lady has demonstrated repeatedly with her behavior.
She lives in Lindsay Lohan land, where normal rules don't apply.
Guess we'll find out, one way or another.
Good afternoon, saywhat.
Good one.lol
mornin' all.
@portland tony
Well you have a point there.
I hope poor LiLo wasn't shaken up too much. Really there was no reason for police to get involved.
What's with the Tahllula Bankead look ? "I vant to be alone."
She looks positively waxy...maybe it's her Madame Toussand's figure and not really her...
I thought Marlene Dietrich said that, Rawr.
Was it Marlene ? I always thought that was Tallulah. Waaaaaaay before my time. So I will admit I don't know. It sounded good anyway.
Way before my time, also, but it's always been attributed to MD...and goodness, LL sure is wearing her "welcome" face, isn't she?
It's really sad when a person thinks they are all that. She startin to look dyslexic.
Duuuh I knew that. At least ypu know what I meant. Serious brain fart there.
Wow, really?
I thought you were going to play one of our word games...honest to a fault, aren't you?
You do us proud , dude.lol
Hey saywhat
How are you today ? I see they didn't leave my list up for long.
Good afternoon to you too@banasy.
With her record police wouldn't perhaps be hard put to find a cause.
Waxy, dislexic, anorexic. Who cares, if you are drunk enough and with a well placed paper bag, I would still tap it. 😛
This is Manhattan, why is she driving!?? No one who lives here drives. I can't understand why she wouldn't take a taxi or use car service or a limo like everyone else especially since all of her troubles involved driving!
If ever there were an example of someone seemingly sabotaging their life!
Lindsay if you're going to live here leave the car on Long Island or sell it. It's the last thing you need in NYC.
The courts need to stop playing around and put her in jail already.
Wow her face looks bad in that pic. She looks so old now.
She was wrong in not sticking around if someone brought to her attention that she nicked someone while parking her car. The victim suffered to injuries, this is not a violent hit and run, as charged it is a misdemeanor, big deal, next.
Same monkey. Different tree.
Sadly, that monkey fell out of the first tree, hitting its face on every branch on the way down before climbing the next one.

This is a profiler for Visual C++ 2003.
I needed a profiler for C++ (Visual Studio 2003) to check out where the bottleneck is in some of my projects. No bells and whistles. The profiler should be very easy to use. And it should be able to count the execution time instead of/on top of the total time elapsed for each function (explained later).
On the other hand, I don't need an ultra-accurate timer and a reasonable overhead by the profiling code is acceptable. My reason is: I know optimization is "evil" -- well, over-optimization perhaps. So I just want to spot out the stupid functions which look innocent but use up 30% of the execution time and can easily be reduced to 5%.
I definitely don't need a fancy UI with a CListCtrl. I'd prefer a CSV output so that I can view and analyze the results in Excel.
And here it is.
Consider functions Foo() and Bar(). Foo() calls Bar(). If I recorded the time at the entry and exit points Foo() and calculated the duration, I would include the execution time of Bar()s in Foo()s. I want to know what time exactly does and only does Foo() take. So on top of recording the entry and exit time, I also have an offset amount. This amount is deducted by every profiled function call.
I use a stack to find out the matching entry and exit records of each function call. The total elapsed time and the execution time (offset by duration of function calls in the function) are then calculated. Each duration is put in a CMap with keys of the function names. Note that since all function names by the directive __FUNCTION__ are constant strings. There is no need to copy/delete the char pointers.
Just add profile.cpp and profile.h in your project. Include "profile.h" and put the macro "PP" at the very beginning of each function to be profiled. At the end of your program, call CProfiler::ExportProf(). A CSV file will be saved under the application directory. The demo project is commented and should be very straight-forward. In the demo project, functions in the class CProfTest are to be profiled.
This is the first time I have posted an article here. I just hope I haven't broken too many rules. Any criticism and/or feedback is equally welcome.
Thanks to eTurtle and yarp's posts.
To profile a multithreading program. I add a map of stacks to keep track of the entry/exit times for each separate thread. So the offset mentioned above won't affect other threads. I added a CCriticalSection to protect the operations of the static collection. I am not sure whether this is necessary. And I am not sure whether there are some cases there I overlooked. But so far it seems it works OK for my simple multithreading test case. Of course this is supposed to be a "quick 'n dirty" trick. ;)
Please let me know should there be any problem.
Also fixed some minor bugs and added some more comments, tidied up the code a bit. Please download the updated version when it's ready.
I add the "locale" support for the CSV and fixed the date format as pointed by eTurtle. I thought I could think straight when I prepared this article and the project -- after half a dozen beers...

Disadvantaged Rural Students: Five Models of School-University Collaboration.
Edwards, Peter; And Others
This paper describes five models of school-university collaboration designed to maximize academic achievement opportunities for disadvantaged rural students. Project SHAPE (School and Homes As Partners in Education) at the State University of New York (SUNY) at Plattsburgh is an extended school day program established in partnership with Plattsburgh public schools, parents, community, and university. The Yakima Valley Collaborative Program involves three institutions: Yakima Valley Community College, Heritage College, and Central Washington University. It is designed to meet the needs of older or minority students unable to leave jobs, families, and other responsibilities to travel to the college campus. The Center for Individualized Instruction (CII) at Jacksonville State University (Alabama) is a multi-disciplinary academic support center serving both undergraduate and graduate students. The CII provides computer based instruction, special classes in basic skills, and peer tutoring in core curriculum subjects. The Systemic Teacher Excellence Preparation Project (STEP) at Montana State University is a 5-year project funded by the National Science Foundation to improve the training of K-12 mathematics and science teachers in Montana, in particular Native American teachers. At Saginaw Valley State University (Michigan), applicants from diverse economic, racial, and cultural backgrounds are recruited through a variety of strategies. Initiatives implemented by the College of Education to attract minority candidates include: the Bilingual Education Program; math/science scholarships funded by a grant from the Kellogg Foundation; a cooperative program with Delta College for minority students; and the Young Educators Society for minority middle school students.

text: Martina Hingis Set To Marry And End The Career Of Radek Stepanekmjdeadspin12/30/06 1:12pmFiled to: Martina HingisTennis39EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink Martina Hingis is marrying Radek Stepanek, a Czech tennis-playing douchebag who is now most famous for marrying Martina Hingis. Those of you who are disappointed that Martina is now off the market need not worry, though. Stepanek will probably be dead within the month. Advertisement The news of their engagement comes just days after Tennis magazine called Hingis tennis's "black widow," because everyone she dates gets injured shortly thereafter. She dated Magnus Norman, he retired with a hip injury. Julian Alonso dated her, and had to retire with an injury. Justin Gimelstob hurt himself. Anna Kournikova retired retired shortly after partnering (and probably having a lot of nasty lesbian sex) with Hingis. Stepanek is currently trying to come back from a neck injury, so I wouldn't expect him to live much longer. I'm okay with that.Also, I like that picture.

RUSSELL KIRK, the American social philosopher, was credited with being singly responsible for the resurgence of conservatism in the United States with his seminal bestseller The Conservative Mind: from Burke to Santayana (1953), sparking the political trend which eventually found its fulfilment in the presidency of Ronald Reagan.
During the same period when the activities of Senator McCarthy were deluding many into thinking he was a bona fide conservative, Kirk argued forcefully that conservatism was a coherent school of thought different from the basic doctrines of anti-Communism, and there must be room for tradition, culture and moral order.
His thesis was revised as The Conservative Mind: from Burke to Eliot in 1960, in conjunction with several more books which expanded on similar themes: A Program for Conservatives (1954), The Intelligent Woman's Guide to Conservatism (1957), Edmund Burke: a genius reconsidered (1967), Eliot and His Age (1971), and many others.
Kirk began a separate part-time career as a master of spectral and Gothic literature while studying for his DLitt at St Andrews University from 1949 to 1952. While temporarily short of funds, he contributed four ghost stories ('Behind the Stumps', 'The Surly Sullen Bell', 'Uncle Isaiah', and 'Old Place of Sorworth') to a new bimonthly, London Mystery Magazine. These tales are now recognised as modern classics.
A much later tale, 'There's a Long, Long Trail a-Winding', brought Kirk the World Fantasy Award for short fiction in 1977. Many connoisseurs of the genre rated him as the sole remaining American fantasist whose ghost stories merit legitimate comparison with the old masters, especially Blackwood, de la Mare and Wharton. Barely two dozen in number, written over a period of nearly 40 years, his ghost stories were collected in three volumes, The Surly Sullen Bell (1962; reissued as Lost Lake, 1964); The Princess of All Lands (1979); and Watchers of the Strait Gate (1984). Old House of Fear (1961), a Gothic novel set in Scotland, ingeniously combined Kirk's two favourite themes: political theory and the supernatural.
Piety Hill, Kirk's ancestral home in Michigan where he lived most of his life, has always been regarded as a benevolently haunted house, most of the ghosts being Kirk's own 19th-century relatives. In recent years he often claimed that this tall Italianate mansion was usually crowded, in addition to its spectres, by refugees from Ethiopia, Vietnam, and elsewhere - not to mention the towering hobo who, as 'Frank Sarsfield', appears in several of his stories.

I'd be very happy to - someday - get a Spock Captain's Table story. I'm a big fan of the Spock-as-Captain concept and haven't gotten nearly enough of it. One of the reasons I'm really enjoying The Sorrows of Empire is Spock in Kirk's shoes plot. I'd welcome a Reyes or Shran story, too. Perhaps a Captain's Table e-book series? Hint, hint Pocket!
Another installment of The Captain's Table I'd like to read very much. Imho, a two-parter anthology could be a good idea to confront it. Here's why: Produce an anthology featuring several captains not represented before. If it sells well, produce the second book with the rest. Hm, it sounded more convincing in my mind, before I wrote it down. So, do we have a definitive list of captains? IIrc, some Klingon Empire characters were captains, too, by A Singular Destiny. However, I'm not sure whether they are memorable enough to have a short story of their own. The list, so far: Spock Geordi La Forge Montgomery Scott Ezri Dax Sonya Gomez Hravishran th'Zoarhi former IKS Gorkon crewmembers I'd exclude Diego Reyes because we already knew him as post-Captain character and there was a story with him as captain already. If you don't mind an off-topic question: Why did Kirk become an Admiral directly after Captain, and not a Commodore?
Because the commodore rank was apparently phased out around that time. In real life, the US Navy stopped using the commodore rank in 1947, replacing it with rear admiral (although since the '80s commodore has been used as a title for senior captains in certain positions), and apparently the makers of TMP and later Trek productions decided to follow that precedent, perhaps feeling the commodore rank was too old-fashioned. TMP did include a reference to "Commodore Probert" in background dialogue recorded for the Epsilon 9 sequence, but that was just filler dialogue that wasn't meant to be clearly audible. There are also screen graphics listing commodores in TNG: "Conspiracy," but again those probably weren't meant to be clearly legible, and aside from that there are no references to Starfleet commodores at any point after TMP.
A Captain's Table Captain Robau book would be awesome (but unlikely) I'd also like a Captain April story, Diane Carey version. Although that presents several problems regarding Carey's old pre-TOS concepets having been trampled by subsequent canon. I'd just lift the characters and put them in a current canon compliant (TM) version of the era, with any references to events from Final Frontier and Best Destiny kept vague.
There is one -- "Though Hell Should Bar the Way" in Enterprise Logs, by our very own Greg Cox. It's not a Captain's Table story, but it is very much about Carey's version of April and his crew. If you want stories focused on captains, then you really need to get Enterprise Logs as well as The Captain's Table. They overlap pretty well. True, only one story in EL is in the Captain's Table format with the captain narrating a story to the bar patrons, but then, a number of the stories in Tales from the Captain's Table didn't fit that format either, except for brief framing passages.
Thanks! I remember now Greg's Carey-style April story being mentioned here before, but I'd totally forgotten about it. I've got to hunt down a copy of Enterprise Logs...
Re: Why No "Captains' Table" Story For Robau? To include Captain Robau is a gorgeous idea! And you can include him without troubling the Alternate Universe, simply by setting the story firmly in the main timeline, i.e. with the Kelvin at Earth in 2233 (so Kirk's mother can beam down to Iowa in time) and not being destroyed. I like the idea because it sheds light on the early lost era 2161-2245. I know there is a fan fic Star Trek: Kelvin, nevertheless I'd like to read an official version. Others pro's include that we could learn more about the two cool aliens aboard Kelvin (the helmsman and the Cygnian(?) doctor). /my two cents
Re: Why No "Captains' Table" Story For Robau? Alnschloss K'Bentayr of Monchezke by Therin of Andor, on Flickr Yeah, people have speculated she is a TAS Cygnian: Cygnian from TAS by Therin of Andor, on Flickr Alien doctor from Star Trek (2009) by Therin of Andor, on Flickr
Re: Why No "Captains' Table" Story For Robau? Until I get my stories starring Captain J.T. Esteban and Captain Styles, I REFUSE to spend any of my hard earned money on ANY Captain's Table stories
Re: Why No "Captains' Table" Story For Robau? Yeah, but whatever timeline they're in, the Kelvin characters are still Bad Robot's creations, so I doubt it'll happen without the same oversight the IDW comics and S&S YA novels are getting.
Re: Why No "Captains' Table" Story For Robau? I see. Too bad, because it is a perfect opportunity to flesh out that era. Even if/when one of our authors writes about the 2230s again, s/he won't be able to use the most iconic characters from that era.
Re: Why No "Captains' Table" Story For Robau? It won't be a "forever" ban. Be patient. Who are you counting as "iconic", apart from Robau? 'Cos George Sr and Winona Kirk have appeared in several ST novels.
Re: Why No "Captains' Table" Story For Robau? No forever ban? Hopefully... And with 'iconic characters', I count the ship (because ships are valuable characters, too) and, to a lesser, extent, the cool aliens. Will President Bacco ever address an Monchezkean during Council session? Or Keenser's people? I like species consistency. Where species don't just exist for one novel/episode but are part of the universe (positive example: Zaldans). Even though the timelines are separate, these species must exist in both.
We've had plenty of little easter egg-like references to the last movie in recent novels. But they're staying away from blantantly featuring anything from it. Spoiler: nuTrek reference list -Icy Delta Vega mentioned in "Paths of Disharmony" -Red Matter seen but not named in "Watching the Clock" -The black hole/alternate universe thing explained in "Watching the Clock" -Mention of Uhura having an Orion academy roommate in "The Rings of Time" (I think? Haven't read it yet but I'm sure someone said it here) -Cardassian Sunrise drink in "Indistinguishable From Magic" -Red haired Orion in "Paths of Disharmony" -"It's been done before" on the beam-out in "Zero Sum Game" ...and several more that elude me at this moment.
Re: Why No "Captains' Table" Story For Robau? Styles was an ass. An Esteban story seems interesting, as I'd like to see what he was like on a daily basis. He seemed extremely conservative during The Search for Spock, but it's hard to know if that was due to his command style or the sensitive nature of Grissom's mission. Esteban was, apparently, a close friend of both Kirk and Spock, though this was never stated on screen.
Re: Why No "Captains' Table" Story For Robau? Depends on the authors, and how sharp the people scrutinizing at CBS Licensing are, if there's a problem. There's no ban on referencing the new movie and Monchezkea wasn't actually mentioned onscreen in the last movie so it's not "canonical". What scrutineer is going to red pencil the term and add a note, "Please choose another planet name; Star Trek has not established that this planet exists in the 24th century universe of Star Trek." Richard Arnold doesn't scrutineer the manuscripts any more. Peter David used to love slipping things past RA! Hard to reference a race without a name. But... his origins are due to be explored in the next comic! (I actually thought he looked a bit like the desert dwellers of "Nemesis", where the B-4 parts were retrieved.) Sure and it'll happen. We didn't see many of the ST III bar aliens ever resurface because no one ever named them. Arex and M'Ress's species names came from a Lincoln Enterprise's mini-biographies and Alan Dean Foster's episode adaptations of TAS. TMP's alien races were named by Robert Fletcher, the costume designer, and ST IV's aliens were named by FASA's RPG sourcebook for ST IV (and a lone photo caption by Kirk Thatcher of an Efrosian on an official publicity still, preserving the Mel Efros homage). When/if the JJ aliens end up with species/planet names, it's easier for the book authors to acknowledge those aliens.
Re: Why No "Captains' Table" Story For Robau? Thanks for the explanations! That makes sense and I'm glad the universes are not destined to shun each other (at least, concerning tidbits like species, etc.). I've hear of the Keenser comic and look forward to it. BTW, how about a story by Captain Braxton?
As of this writing, retailers at the Amazon Marketplace are selling used copies for ONE CENT! Essentially, you just have to pay the S&H.

Autumn Photography - North Yorkshire/Cumbria
Hi, Autumn in the Northern regions of England are always beautiful, with this in mind and the knowledge of all the TE photographers based in England, I wonder if any would be interested in forming a small group, either over a day or over a weekend and spend time sharing experiences and knowledge and at the same time spending time in a wonderful part of the world and recording it through photos.
I do not have any specific location or time and would ask anyone who may be interested to let me have three locations and three possible dates. My feeling would then to find out the most popular location and the most convenient date ( to the majority of replies) and see if that would be suitable to the majority (democracy at its best)- Looking forward to any replies. Rich my email address is firstname.lastname@example.com Last edited by Ricx; 09-02-2010 at 03:39 PM. Reason: contact details |

AT&T announced today that it will sell Samsung's newest flagship phone, the Galaxy S5, for $199.99 with a two-year contract.
You can also buy the phone from AT&T without a contract for $649.99. There are also payment plans that let you pay the phone off for as little as $25 per month.
We don't have a launch date yet, but you can pre-order the Galaxy S5 from AT&T starting March 21. When Samsung first announced the Galaxy S5, it said the phone would launch globally on April 11.
However, carriers tend to control device launch dates, so things may be different in the U.S. Expect the phone to start shipping in early April.
AT&T will also sell Samsung's new smartwatches the Gear 2 and Gear 2 Neo. The Gear 2 will cost $299 and the Gear 2 Neo will cost $199.
Finally, the Gear Fit, Samsung's attractive fitness band with a curved glass display, will cost $199. The wearable devices will start shipping in early April, but there isn't a solid launch date yet.
Verizon, T-Mobile, and Sprint haven't announced their pricing for the Galaxy S5 yet, but it should be pretty close to AT&T's price. Samsung's wearable devices will probably cost the same on all carriers.
UPDATE: T-Mobile announced the Samsung Galaxy S5 will cost $0 down plus $27.50 per month for 24 months. Details here >>

Format-holder takes the crown in our list of the world's most successful studios, while Europeans beat Canadians
The numbers are in - and Nintendo has shot to the top of our yearly Develop 100.Put together in association with Sheridans and amBX, the Develop 100 ranks the world's games development studios according to the sales of their games at UK retail as according to ChartTrack data. The 2008 edition comes free with every copy of the April edition of Develop, arriving with subscribers today.
In taking the number one spot, Nintendo dethrones EA Canada which held the top place in the previous three editions of the list. Games made by the firm's Kyoto and Tokyo-based development teams, which include Brain Training and Super Mario Galaxy, generated £129.83m in revenue for the company – up almost 200 per cent year-on-year.
A number of other Japanese teams have done well in the Develop 100 as well, many of them benefitting from the rise and rise of Nintendo's Wii and DS formats. 19 teams hailing from Japan feature in the listing, accounting for a total of £367.76m in revenue - included in them are Sega Studios Japan, Sonic Team, Office Create, Dimps, Yuke's, Intelligent Systems and Capcom.
But despite the increased success of Nintendo and its Japan-based contemporaries – and the widely reported pressures from low-cost development centres in Canada – the Develop 100 shows European studios in good health. Development teams in the UK and mainland Europe claim a total of 36 places in the list between them, having generated £284m at UK retail in 2007 – higher than Canada's 12 studios and £221m revenues.
If that stat-burst has whetted your appetite, there are plenty more Develop 100 facts online now, too.
Firstly, you can find the full Develop 100 listing to read through at www.develop100.com.
Meanwhile, we've got plenty of analysis here on www.developmag.com, including our profiles of the top 50 studios (numbers one to ten, numbers 11 to 30, and numbers 31 to 50), plus details of the key trends and top-line facts.
Plus, there is a free digital version of the book itself online to read here.

I'm considering a T&L engine also and have googled them over and over. The only complaints I come up with are on correspondence and delivery dates. This is the first thread that I have come up with an actual complaint about the product. Can anyone point to any other dissatisfied customers? Thanks, Tim
Not sure of its content or whether you've already seen it, but I wanted to point out this ongoing thread: T&L ENGINES IN N.C. - FordMuscle.com Forums
Yea, I've read through most of that thread and another thread on the GT40 kit car forum. A lot of people disappointed with delivery dates, but they are mostly on more customized engines. A lot of people that ordered the standard engine offered seem pleased with performance and delivery. Tim
before we bash T&L, give them a call, you can bet they will make it right. I bought a rebuilt engine for my forklift from Jasper and when I opened the crate and looked at it there was SAND in the exhaust ports, I called then right away and they had another engine sent to me in 4 days, sh** happens, give them a chance. but then, your buddy already took it apart-- warrenty VOID.
65 Im sure they also build good engines But note that i still havent recived the parts for an engine that hasent prooved its potential yet and it was orderd in november 2006...... and arrived at my shipping agent in CA 7-8 month later And they will not answer my mails !? But What can i do ?? Since im living in Denmark i cant just go and knock on their door :-( Tom B : Would you recomend that i shipped it back to the states instead of lokating the problem or ?
The first thing I would do is stop emailing them, its worthless. Call them, if they have a toll free number then use it, and keep calling no matter what they might say to discourage you. talk to different people at the company if you dont get what you want. BE NICE to people and dont yell or cuss but at the same time dont give in. As soon a you cuss or get loud they will hang up or wont help you, ""How do you respond to someone yelling at you"" Have all your receipts and WRITE down all that is said from them and yourself and ask for whom your talking to and use there name in your sentences, this makes them feel like they know you.
After reading about his problems, you're still willing to say give them a chance??? As I said before. This IS the way he does business. Would you want to do business with someone who quits talking with you when you have a problem with their product?? AFTER he has your money. And there is MORE than this one person this has happened to. And people still want to buy from him, cause he's cheaper than so and so.... You get what you pay for. Don't bother. And for someone who said before about custom engines being the problem with his delivery, and not basic engines. Why buy a basic engine from someone NOT local!!!! I don't buy any of it. A PRO builder WILL NOT install head gaskets backwards!!!! I could just imagine a PRO NASCAR engine builder tell the owner he lost the race, NOT from parts failure. BUT INCORRECT assembly of his engine. NOT from parts failure, but IMPROPER assembly techniques. TOTALLY PREVENTABLE!!!! Can you say, 'Not my engine builder any more!!!'
I dont know or bought from T&L so if what you say is true than I agree But I have learned how to deal with people and to check out a company or person before I buy, If I was to buy from T&L then I would have found this Thread and others and went over all information, do your homework before you buy and this wont happen. If you can get no satisfaction then sue them. period. Talk first then the law. Call the city or town that T&L is in and file a charge with the police dept, maybe you can get a name and address and go from there. You can also write up a legal paper and have it notarized and tell them how much it might cost them to go to court, oops I didnt say that
Believe it or not I still havent got ANY parts from them !!! They come with a lot of bull about changing places in the firm and that their email dosent work ...... So still NO parts at all for me ! Bad luck to be living in Denmark ... Tommy
And can you believe, there were some reading this, that STILL wanted to buy from them???? Poor assembly techniques!!!! You get what you pay for. GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!! If you buy anyway, GOOD LUCK If you get ripped, well it's your own fault. Sorry to hear this hasn't resolved itself.
Jeeze, I know a guy who recently built a 289 High Performance for a museum in Europe. It is for static display, but he assumes they might someday actually put it in a car, so it's being assembled to blueprint specs inside and out. Since you can't call them toll-free from overseas, and they certainly know you have a problem, they should have shipped you a replacement engine long ago.
Update ! I just had to buy the parts for my engine MYSELF !!! And i have got the verdict from my engine shop ..... The heads was not straight. The block was not straight, The cylinders was barrel shaped (could only hold the measure in top and bottom), And the valves was leaking ..... Impressive work .....NOT !!! And they still ow me a ton of parts ! DO NOT BUY FROM THEM .......!
Damn, Nemesis . . . I truly feel for their overseas customers I'm still waiting for my engine, they are having problems keeping up with their custom engine program, and they sent out a mass email. Still, many have received quality production and custom engines from them, and some have had big problems, like you. I hope the dice roll doesn't come up snake eyes for me. I had expected up to a year wait, and it's getting close. If I have any problems, you guys will be among the first to know, and I expect and will deserve a hearty "I told you so" if I do have problems. I do feel, overall, that they're a good builder that has made *some* great engines, but they need to be better organized and improve communication and customer service. But the block issue you're having is a big one. Keep on them, and keep records of all the work you've had to have done. Come to some sort of agreement and get it in writing. Hey, if you want to visit the US, a trip into North Carolina and a rented car might be in your future to give them hell in person . . .
reputation for engines vs. customer service chillin, If you're curious about the subject, I would point you to ffcobra.com and the number of guys there who have received good, reliable engines from them, among other reports here and there, some old, some recent. The customer service thing is another issue entirely. Nemesis got a bad engine. Lots of people have gotten good ones. Assuming I get a good one, I saved a few thousand, although I lost part of it with the interest I could have made on my deposit over the year wait.
Have you seen this "T&L" forum? tandl.freeforums.org • View topic - Stroker Order Email - Aug 24, 2009 Here in Denmark there also some realy bad stories of two 383" chevys comming from T&L. I believe this is one of them: tandl.freeforums.org • View topic - Internal pictures of an T&L engine
Really? A year waiting for someone to build an engine for you? There are tons of reputable, reliable engine builders out there that can build these engines in a LOT shorter timeframe, and then again, there's always the option to build it yourself. If you build it yourself, as I'm doing, you just have to make sure that you have a good parts combination and a good machine shop to perform the machine work and balancing, and some of them will even assemble it for you. However, assembling an engine is no big deal at all . . . even for someone who has never built an engine before--there are books available to guide you through what you need to do. So . . . I guess I'm having a hard time understanding why anybody would wait a year, or even a couple of months to have someone across the country build an engine for them.
its really strange poeple would even give them the benefit of "maybe that was just a isolated case" and still want to do business with them. In this time of the economy, you would think they would want to keep as many customers as possible and the bad press to a minimum. I dont think i was screwed by my builder that took 2 weeks, but I wasnt 100% satisfied either, but my car still runs and he made efforts to make things right.

OpenText Extended ECM for Microsoft® SharePoint®
- Overview
- Customers
Consume and Extend SAP, Oracle EBS and Salesforce Information within SharePoint
Microsoft SharePoint is widely used for enterprise-wide collaboration and communication in order to boost user productivity. However, enterprises now need to integrate SharePoint work streams and content into ERP, CRM and other critical processes. OpenText's Extended ECM for SharePoint provides this integration, as well as a 360-degree view into structured and unstructured content.
OpenText Extended ECM for Microsoft SharePoint supports EIM needs while enhancing collaboration, document control, and compliance activities. Also, it offers features such as SharePoint workspaces for specific projects and activities. These workspaces permit direct access to SAP, Oracle EBS or Salesforce business objects and processes, and easy access to documentation from mobile devices or from personal productivity tools such as Microsoft Outlook.
OpenText Extended ECM for Microsoft SharePoint enables users to combine SAP, Oracle EBS, Salesforce.com and other third party ERP and CRM data and processes with Microsoft SharePoint content and vice versa. It optimizes the value of both SharePoint and third party ERP and CRM data and accelerates efficiencies across the enterprise to transform your organization to be truly collaborative.
By enriching SharePoint content with third party ERP and CRM software transaction data, teams can continue to use their familiar SharePoint user interfaces without the need for additional training on separate solutions.
- Improve team productivity and effectiveness
- Remove information silos to reduce data volumes
- Enforce corporate governance and legal compliance policies on SharePoint content
- Minimize delays and disruption caused by missing or inaccessible documentation
- Reduce storage and information discovery costs
- Control proliferation of Microsoft SharePoint content
- Ensure full governance and compliance of SharePoint content
Because of the great integration point with OpenText, Microsoft and SAP, it was a perfect roadmap for us. It was a perfect experience and we've had great success with all three of these companies to date.

In keeping with NAU's commitment to student success and excellence in education, the Interdisciplinary Writing Program is dedicated to promote the intellectual growth and development of students through providing resources and experiences that encourage student-writers to explore, develop, research, design, and present their work inside and outside of the academic classroom.
Presentation skills: provide students, staff, and faculty with assistance and feedback on presentation skills, including organization, research content, argument structure, and professionalism.
The IWP is committed to providing a learner-centered program that focuses on student success, engagement, and achievement, as well as the advancement of the internationalization of the university.
We create a culture of inclusion, and exemplify an innovative, effective, and accountable learning community by focusing on:
Writing: assist all NAU students, staff, and faculty in improving their writing capabilities for their academic classes and to offer feedback for students with writing projects not directly related to their academic classes, such as job letters and graduate school applications.
Research: strengthen students, staff, and faculty research skills by emphasizing finding, analyzing, integrating, and citing sources in collaboration with our Cline research librarians.
Design: assist students, staff, and faculty with document and presentation design, digital, and hardcopy, through feedback on all drafts.
Supporting NAU Students
We believe that all writers benefit from sharing their work-in-progress with trained, informed, and interested readers, so we provide one to one writing assistance for students that are collaborative and interactive. These sessions familiarize students with composing strategies and introduce them to the many rhetorical choices available to academic writers. We also lead group workshops on writing-related topics.
Supporting NAU Faculty
We provide consulting and feedback for faculty interested in revising writing assignments. Syllabus design, innovative assignment creation such as using low-stakes in-class writing to meet learning outcomes, and giving effective feedback to student writers are subjects of one-to-one sessions and group meetings between the University Writing Commons staff and faculty.
Supporting NAU Staff
We provide support for staff members who need feedback on professional documents. We offer appointment-based sessions for staff to discuss writing tasks such as emails, memos, letters, posters, or grant proposals.
Supporting Our NAU Community
We sponsor, collaborate, and provide events that influence NAU's culture of writing from speakers to the Undergraduate Videogame Symposium (a new branch of the larger Undergraduate Research Symposium). We collaborate with our research librarians, the Philosophy in the Public Interest, and open our events for the public to attend. We also sponsor an IWP Internship program for undergraduates to research, design, and implement peer-to-peer ideas that will influence the wider culture of writing at NAU.
