Falling Off the Cliff? Increasing Economic Security for Low Income Adults as the Safety Net Shrinks Joshua D. Hawley, Julie A. Maurer
The public assistance system is supposed to offer a bridge between poverty and self-sufficiency. Families receive benefits such as Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) or Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) to soften the impact of loss of income. The programs are intended to be limited in duration and provide a very modest amount of financial support. Some families are fortunate to also receive a housing voucher or a child care subsidy to help offset basic expenses. Eligibility for benefits varies by program and is based on different criteria, most of which are linked to personal income. This study asks: what happens when benefits are cut before individuals reach economic stability? This is frequently called the "benefits cliff."» Mehr lesen
Hybrid Simulation in Healthcare: New Concepts and New Tools Sally C. Brailsford
Until relatively recently, developing hybrid simulation models using more than one simulation paradigm was a challenging task which required a degree of ingenuity on behalf of the modeler. Generally speaking, such hybrid models either had to be coded from scratch in a programming language, or developed using two (or more) different off-the-shelf software tools which had to communicate with each other through a user-written interface. Nowadays a number of simulation tools are available which aim to make this task easier. This paper does not set out to be a formal review of such software, but it discusses the increasing popularity of hybrid simulation and the rapidly developing market in hybrid modeling tools, focusing specifically on applications in health and social care and using experience from the Care Life Cycle project and elsewhere.» Mehr lesen
Major City Evacuation Planning Using Simulation Modeling A, Kirby, J.E. Dietz, E. Matson, J. Pekny, C. Wojtalewicz and J. Pekny
Disaster, whether manmade or natural, can have a catastrophic impact on a populated area. Sometimes, the disaster is so devastating that it requires a large-scale evacuation. As a result, evacuation plans have become a necessity. One such evacuation plan is the regional hub reception center (RHRC), which will help evacuate the careless population when an evacuation is needed. Using AnyLogic as a simulation modeling software, an RHRC model was developed to test the efficiency of the proposed plan.» Mehr lesen
Agent-based population model used to identify and evaluate dog population management strategies L. Kisiel, A. Jones-Bitton, A.L. Greer; Department of Population Medicine, Ontario Veterinary College, University of Guelph, Guelph, ON Canada; CEFUTREMA
Developing countries are faced with finding novel and humane ways to permanently reduce and control their dog population. Agent-based models developed to describe dog populations represent a unique, platform for using computer based simulation to identify control strategies with the greatest potential for success, aid in the design of more effective control measures, and provide a means to evaluate the success of different interventions.» Mehr lesen

Agent-based modelling to visualise trustworthiness: a socio-technical framework Shuyuan Mary Ho, Ram Reddy Katukoori; Int. J. Mobile Network Design and Innovation, Vol. 5, No. 1, 2013
This paper describes a socio-technical study based on physical world scenarios of deceptive behaviour occurring in a virtual collaborative environment. An agent-based modelling (ABM) approach was adopted to visualise trustworthiness that can signal deceptive behaviour in virtual communications among social actors. The modelling strategies were guided by attribution theories toward an agent's perceived trustworthiness.» Mehr lesen
Modeling the Cycles of Gang and Criminal Behavior: Understanding the Social and Economic Influences Bruce Skarin, Jeanine Skorinko, Khalid Saeed, Oleg Pavlov, 27th International Conference of the System Dynamics Society, 2009
One of the challenges in developing policy for dealing with asocial behavior, such as burglary, vehicle theft, or violent crimes is the seemingly unpredictable rise and fall of activity. In retrospect these cycles in crime are often attributed to changes in factors such the size of a police force, level unemployment, or high school drop-out rate. What causes changes in these factors can some times be external to a local community, such as economic shifts affecting tax revenue, however many are internally linked. For example when crime is high, there is a call for more police and when crime is low, there is a justification for reducing the size of the force. Therefore, understanding how these factors are linked together as a whole may allow for better policies that reduce asocial behavior further and create more stability in the long term.» Mehr lesen

Answers by Expert:
In regards to American antique, vintage and collectible furniture I can help with wood identification, styles, age, periods, historical coatings, materials, techniques, repair, restoration, refinishing, and value. I do not study mid century and later furniture nor do I deal in lamps, and other smalls. email@example.com You may ask for values and I will give you current market values, I will not give you 'feel good' values. Understand that there are many factors that contribute to market value. If you want a feel good, unrealistic number, please call a local inexperienced appraiser. It is my desire to help you and in doing so I increase my knowledge as well. For that I thank you.
I have been in the antiques furniture and restoration business and in the sales of antique furniture for 40+ years and have continued my education in the trade attending workshops and seminars by various organizations, institutions, and private collectors.

The smallest country in Central America geographically, El Salvador has the third largest economy in the region. With the global recession in 2009, real GDP contracted by 3.1%. The economy slowed even further during 2010-12. Remittances accounted for 17% of GDP in 2011 and were received by about a third of all households. In 2006, El Salvador was the first country to ratify the Dominican Republic-Central American Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA-DR), which has bolstered the export of processed foods, sugar, and ethanol, and supported investment in the apparel sector amid increased Asian competition. El Salvador has promoted an open trade and investment environment and has completed a wave of privatizations extending to telecom, electricity distribution, banking, and pension funds. The Salvadoran Government maintained fiscal discipline during post-war reconstruction and reconstruction following earthquakes in 2001 and hurricanes in 1998 and 2005, but El Salvador's external debt has been mounting over the last several years. Taxes levied by the government include a value added tax (VAT) of 13%, income tax of 30%, excise taxes on alcohol and cigarettes, and import duties. The VAT accounted for about 51.7% of total tax revenues in 2011. El Salvador's external debt amounts to about one-fourth of GDP. In 2012, El Salvador successfully completed a $461 million compact with the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) - a United States Government agency aimed at stimulating economic growth and reducing poverty - in the country's northern region, the primary conflict zone during the civil war, through investments in education, public services, enterprise development, and transportation infrastructure. In January 2013, the MCC approved El Salvador as eligible for a possible second MCC compact.

'Unlocking the Mysteries of the Southern Ocean'

Climate Central interviewed Jorge Sarmiento regarding the Southern Ocean and his work to model its role in the carbon cycle. Read more.
Video Closed Captions
DR. JORGE SARMIENTO: It's a
very, very far away and it's a
very severe climate, and a
very hard place to work.
DR. OSCAR SCHOFIELD: It is
an extreme environment.
There' not many places on this
planet that is truly untamed
and unexplored.
DR. JORGE SARMIENTO: It's
mysterious, because there's a
lot of things going on that
are very, very complex.
DR. HEIDI CULLEN: We live in
anxious times, on a stressed
planet, where increasing levels
of carbon dioxide and
higher temperatures contribute
to a host of extremes--
more withering heat waves,
increased drought, torrential
The oceans are rising and
becoming more acidic.
Earth is a place looking for
and needing solutions.
Key to a solution is the ability
to model and predict
our changing climate.
And for that, the answer may
rest not on land or even in
the atmosphere, but in a vast,
mysterious body of water the
size of Asia, Africa, North
America, and Europe combined--
the Southern Ocean.
DR. JORGE SARMIENTO: The oceans
take up about a quarter
of the carbon dioxide that
we're putting into the
atmosphere by fossil fuel
burning and deforestation.
And of that quarter, fully 50%
goes into the Southern Ocean,
even though the ocean is just
a quarter of the ocean area.
DR. HEIDI CULLEN: In addition to
absorbing such huge amounts
of the world's greenhouse gases,
the Southern Ocean also
accounts for about 60% of the
excess heat transferred from
the atmosphere to the ocean.
And this sprawling body of
water that encircles
Antarctica serves as a kind of
mix master to the planet's
oceans, a place where different
water masses from
around the world come together,
combine, and then
are sent back out, supplying
nutrients to a majority of the
Earth's seas.
Yet despite its critical
importance, the Southern Ocean
remains one of the least
understood and most
under-explored regions
on our planet.
DR. OSCAR SCHOFIELD: The
oceans are chronically
We do a poor job studying it
with traditional techniques,
despite our best efforts.
DR. JORGE SARMIENTO: Now we have
something completely new,
a new way of studying this that
doesn't require us to be
there, which are these floats
that are capable of observing
the Southern Ocean remotely
on very rapid time scales.
They can resolve things in
time as well as space.
DR. OSCAR SCHOFIELD: The new
technologies are going to be
the only way we're going to get
enough data and the right
kind of data to essentially
help build the models to
simulate future oceans.
DR. HEIDI CULLEN: Here at
Princeton University, the
observational data and the
modeling come together under
the umbrella of C-SOBOM, short
for the Center for Southern
Ocean Biogeochemical
Observations and Modeling.
In addition to Princeton,
C-SOBOM draws on the talents
of top scientists at leading
institutions, including the
University of Arizona, the
University of Washington,
Rutgers, Johns Hopkins, MBARI,
Scripps, and my organization,
Climate Central.
Climate modelers, observational
coordinated and committed to
unlocking and communicating
the mysteries of the
Southern Ocean.
DR. JORGE SARMIENTO: There's a
sense of urgency that I feel
that events, climate change,
carbon chemistry changes, like
acidification of the ocean,
are going to outrun our
ability to observe
the ocean to do
something about these things.
DR. OSCAR SCHOFIELD: When I see
the large changes and I
sort of look at it, I
have two reactions.
First, as a scientist, I get
really curious about
what's going on.
You combine that with a concern
about where the
ocean's going and how that might
affect the planet for my
kids, adds a little bit of extra
passion to make sure you
follow through to try to do
the best job you can.

Commencement 2012: Beyond FitzRandolph Gate
Posted June 4, 2012; 07:40 p.m.
Meet 10 Princeton seniors who have made an impact on the world even before they departed through FitzRandolph Gate at the end of Commencement. Read more.
Video Closed Captions
LUCY REEDER: When I came to
Princeton, I was looking for a
way to volunteer in the community.
I decided to do something that
I've never done before and I
never thought I could do.
I'm leaving Princeton knowing
that I can do anything.
BENJAMIN COGAN: I worked in a boys' orphanage
in New Delhi, India.
ALEXANDRIA ("CAMMIE") BROWN: I tutored middle school
students in Trenton, N.J.
AMANDA REES: I taught a course on energy, environment and
entrepreneurship in Bagamoyo, Tanzania.
FAAEZ UL HAQ: I worked on a
crowd-sourcing system for
tracking corruption in public offices in
the developing world.
YU-SUNG HUANG: I spent a summer
helping New York City
figure out how it can help
failing small businesses.
ALAN UTRIA: I worked with an NGO in
South Africa called Nkanyiso.
ARIELLE SANDOR: I was an enactor
in a magnet theater troop in
Nakuru, Kenya.
JAVARIA NAJEEB: I made a documentary about a
transgender person.
EDUARDO CONTIJOCH: I led a
breakout trip to Washington, DC,
to look at HIV/AIDS issues in the district.
LUCY REEDER: I volunteered with
the Princeton Fire Department.
LUCY REEDER: We got one call at 6 a.m., in
December, for a structure fire
out in Hopewell.
We really didn't know what to
expect until we came over a
hill and we could see the house,
on the top of the hill,
completely engulfed in flames.
And I expected to feel nervous
but I was actually calm
because I knew that I had been
trained to know everything
that I needed to know to get the job done.
EDUARDO CONTIJOCH: Meeting
individuals who were HIV-
positive, seeing that their
lives weren't just the fact
that they had an infection,
it really brought
the issue to life.
ARIELLE SANDOR: Magnet theater
is a means of engaging a
community in an issue that
they're facing internally
through theater, and then halfway
through the skit we'll
say, "OK, freeze point."
"What would you guys do if you
were in this position?"
JAVARIA NAJEEB: I took a class
titled "Social Issue Filmmaking."
The great thing about being at
Princeton is that there's a
lot of collaboration between the
different departments, so
my class was a combination of
many different kinds of
perspectives in one classroom,
which is something that
Princeton offers to all
its students.
ARIELLE SANDOR: Princeton was
the reason that I found out
about magnet theater and, you
know, it's those connections,
it's those random conversations, those
appointments you schedule on
e-mail and you don't know how
they're going to impact you, and
then it's like [finger-snap] everything
is just so different.
FAAEZ UL HAQ: To think that this
could potentially have a
positive impact somewhere in the world,
that's a really--
that's a really great feeling.
AMANDA REES: In the Dalai Lama Fellowship,
when we talk about takeaways, it's really like a greater
understanding of compassion
and resilience and interconnectedness.
YU-SUNG HUANG: Now, when I walk
through the streets of New
York, I see a very human side
behind every small business.
JAVARIA NAJEEB: This gave me
a broader perspective of how
the human condition is the same everywhere.
ALEXANDRIA ("CAMMIE") BROWN: I saw children
come in who were very
shy, and the children really
starting to get into the
stories and I saw confidence
levels soar.
BENJAMIN COGAN: I've been
inspired to start a global
poverty charity called Giving
What We Can, that both
encourages students to give
more to global poverty
charities and to give to the most
effective charities possible.
ALAN UTRIA: You get to go out
into the world and really
learn things you can't learn
in classrooms, and while
you're doing that hopefully, you
can also have an impact on
the communities that you are working with.
LUCY REEDER: There are many
different ways to make a
difference, and you should
think about all of them
because you'll never know what
you'll be able to do.
ALEXANDRIA ("CAMMIE") BROWN: Anything that you can imagine, you can do here.
ARIELLE SANDOR: There are so
many opportunities to get
involved, and it's just about
taking that first step, and
somehow, you'll find maybe five,
and you'll be able to
link them all together and
create this incredible path
that you never would have
imagined before.
ALEXANDRIA ("CAMMIE") BROWN: If you have
something that you're
passionate about, something that
you're interested in, if
you see a problem, then you can
really make a change and you
can make a difference.

About Stainless Works Muffler Types: The S-Tube Muffler is a louder Muffler and More aggressive Muffler with a straight thru design. The Turbo Chambered Muffler Has and interior chambered design which gives a moderate volume and moderate aggressiveness.
*** NOTE: Not legal for use on pollution-controlled motor vehicles. For off-road use only.The use of long tube headers with aftermarket cats, powerflo-x,hpipe,xpipe crossover pipes with or without aftermarket cats or aftermarket cats are illegal for installation and use on emission-legal vehicles when operated on public streets or highways. They can only be legally used while participating in sanctioned motorsports racing events.
Purchasing one of these items, you agree that the long tube headers with aftrmarket cats, powerflo-x,hpipe,xpipe crossover pipes with or without aftermarket cats or aftermarket cats purchased from Late Model Performance are soley being used for sanctioned motorsports racing events, and when installing or re-selling headers with aftermarket cats, powerflo-x crossover pipes with aftermarket cats or aftermarket cats, the end consumer is being made aware of and agrees to these terms of use.
History and information about Stainless Works and their products.
LMPerformance offers the Stainless Works exhaust systems, Stainless Works turbo header, off road pipes and more. Our research shows Stainless Works stainless steel products are made from only the finest Everlast 304 stainless steel, which is a premium mil spec grade of stainless steel that is slightly more expensive than standard stainless steel materials. Stainless Works exhaust systems, and Stainless Works turbo headers will never red-rust like the cheaper 400 series stainless steel used by others.
Stainless Works is an industry-leader in stainless steel performance headers and exhaust systems. In addition to designing our wide range of after-market headers and exhausts, they manufacture them on-site, right here in the United States by skilled American craftsmen. LMPerformance is impressed that their systems have proven performance increases through pre and post-dyno testing of vehicles and are made in our country.
LMPerformance has found them to build systems that fit and perform better than factory systems. A concours type system will be pressure bent like the original, which impedes flow, and will be routed a little differently than our systems. Their systems are designed to fit and perform perfectly. In many cases they have improved on the fit of the factory exhaust system. Being CNC mandrel bent (as opposed to cheaper less accurate processes) ensures that it will fit well every time.
Finding ways to improve upon an already impressive product is the hallmark of a great company and STAINLESS WORKS does just that by investing in the latest and greatest technology; such as, CNC TRUMPF lasers that provide precise welding and cutting for a perfect fit, a CNC press brake for precision bending, a CNC Robotic Cell for consistent machining results. All of these products help STAINLESS WORKS give you a sui generis product with precise mandrel bending for better air flow and as a consequence more power, the reason you are probably considering an aftermarket exhaust system in the first place, and these cutting edge products will also help you to get a perfect fit every time. And if you are a performance aficionado you know the factory installed exhaust system in your car just doesn't cut it, not only in performance capability but in sound as well, and STAINLESS WORKS thought of that as well. STAINLESS WORKS knows that "one size doesn't fit all" and for that reason they designed and perfected the S-Tube Muffler that is louder and more aggressive sounding and the Turbo Chambered Muffler with moderate volume and aggressiveness; so they choice is yours when it comes to sound and both will give you a sound that deepens to a low "growl" during acceleration. Combine all of this with an experienced and talented team of designers and production personnel and you have part of the key to a successful company but you also need dedication and willingness to work hard and make changes when these are called for, and there you have it – the key to STAINLESS WORKS success and customer satisfaction. Take a look at the impressive array of STAINLESS WORKS exhaust systems and Stainless Works turbo headers on the LMPERFORMANCE web site and you will see what we mean and find the one that will make your Cadillac CTS V, GMC Sierra, Pontiac Firebird, GTO, G8 and a multiplicity of other models more powerful and better sounding, and get them at a competitive price so that you can begin getting more power and a better sound today.

Our website looks at events which take place in Peterborough and what the citizens of this fine town do in the area.
Town Collaboration
We have observed a great collaboration between the people of Peterborough, Arts Council of the area and the town's City Council to discover original ways of turning this city into a finer place to inhabit. This website is a forum where people of the area of people intending to visit can air their views, opinions and thoughts on the scheme and get the very latest updates on engaging news and features.
Peterborough Curriculum is being designed by a combination of young people, local schools and organisations within the Peterborough area, which were inspired by Peterborough's history, present and future. Its goal is to reflect the local matters of importance and values and to connect local people with education.
Peterborough community
Peterborough is interested in building the ability for people, both individually and as a group, to make a difference to their community. A vital part of this is ensuring that individuals have the ability and knowledge to take part in local projects and processes. But it's normally the case that groups of people working as a team can create greater change than people working on their own.
This is a great town, set in the heart of beautiful Cambridgeshire. We believe the town is making great progress in making this town even better.

For me, a landscape does not exist in its own right, since its appearance changes at every moment; but its surroundings bring it to life – the air and the light, which vary continually … For me, it is only the surrounding atmosphere which gives objects their true value.
Monet 18911
As he matured as an artist, Monet returned to the same motif with endless variations: Rouen Cathedral, poplars, haystacks, waterlilies. It was only in this way that he could seek to capture differing effects of light on objects, and changing times of day, as the nominal theme and composition differed only to a small degree. In the ice-floe paintings he made in and after the severe winter of 1892–93, there are even fewer variables, as the dazzlingly colourful effects of sunlight on vegetation or stone surfaces have been eliminated.
Monet had addressed the subject of ice breaking up on the Seine – the 'débacle' of the title – at least twice before, in 1868 at Bougival, and in 1879–80 at Lavacourt, near Vétheuil. The thirteen Giverny paintings of 1893–94 were composed and begun at the small village of Bennecourt near his house.2
Having swept along its ice floes for several days, the Seine finally froze over in mid-January, 1893. Monet set up on the Bennecourt bank and painted the river looking towards the hills on the left bank.3
The date 1894 written on the canvas, a year after the freezing flood, puts firmly to rest the myth that Monet always painted out of doors: like almost all artists he finished works in the studio, sometimes large parts of them.
In Morning haze Monet's subject is the disappearance of form and colour under nature's wintry grey and white coverings of snow and fog on a river. Like Turner, Monet attempts to paint the ineffable appearance of light and water, the infinite array of snow, river, vapour and sky. The tonal spectrum he employs is small, varying from very light to middle tones, while his palette is limited to mixed hues of white and the palest shades of grey and purple. But the skin of paint is robust, built up in layers like masonry. The way mist dissolves material reality is evoked by a haze of paint. The bright snow on the bank emphasises the snow on the ice floes, while the river's surface reflects the mist and sky, as well as the trees on the far bank and on the little islets. By cutting off the foreground, Monet allows the river to flow out of the canvas, encroaching into the viewer's world. As so often in Monet's painting, his experience of transience, of recording an instant, implies time passing and the inevitability of change.

New class introduces students to the art and engineering of tall building design
Posted March 22, 2011; 10:00 a.m.
When Princeton senior Maryanne Wachter visited Chicago on a recent class trip, she returned to a childhood fascination.
"I grew up in Louisiana but used to visit my grandmother in Chicago," said Wachter, a civil and environmental engineering major. "That's where I first saw tall buildings and where I decided to be a civil engineer."
Chicago was one of three American cities known for their iconic towers that Wachter and her classmates toured as part of a new Princeton engineering class devoted to the study of the relations of buildings, space, time and societal dynamics. Called "A Social and Multi-dimensional Exploration of Structure," the course was taught for the first time this past fall with a theme of tall buildings. It was developed with funding from Princeton's 250th Anniversary Fund, which supports innovation in undergraduate education, and will be offered at least every other year with a new theme each time.
Willis Tower, formerly known as Sears Tower, was one of the Chicago skyscrapers Princeton students visited as part of a class on tall building engineering. (Photo by Maria Garlock)
Taught by Maria Garlock and Sigrid Adriaenssens, both assistant professors of civil and environmental engineering, last fall's class took a holistic approach to the design and construction of soaring towers. In addition to learning about the technical aspects of designing and constructing tall buildings, the students explored how buildings fit into the political, social and economic conditions of their time.
The students learned, for instance, that construction of many of Chicago's skyscrapers was driven by a desire to bring people back into the city in the 1950s and 1960s, while Houston's towers resulted from the city's booming business environment in the 1960s and 1970s.
"A tall building doesn't just come out of nowhere," Adriaenssens said. "There are political and economic forces at work and trends that influence design and construction."
The class focused on the buildings of Fazlur Khan, a Bangladeshi-American engineer who designed some of America's most famous skyscrapers, including the John Hancock Center and Willis Tower (formerly known as the Sears Tower), both in Chicago.
The 11 students in the class -- all civil and environmental engineering majors -- visited buildings built by Khan and others in Chicago, New York and Houston to see the towers firsthand and learn about the circumstances in which they were built and how they've fared over time.
The class also toured engineering firms and interviewed influential tall building designers, including Bill Baker, who designed Burj Khalifa in Dubai, the tallest building in the world, and Leslie Robertson, one of the chief engineers who designed New York's World Trade Center, which was destroyed in the Sept 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

"The students got to see what they would be doing after graduation," Garlock said. "They also got some good career advice. Everyone kept telling them that they needed to go to graduate school if they want to design tall buildings."
Based on their research, the students wrote essays that Adriaenssens and Garlock plan to use as chapters in a book about Fazlur Khan as a structural artist. Professor Emeritus David Billington will co-write the book with them. The students also built scaled models of iconic buildings as a final project for the course, and Adriaenssens and Garlock are organizing these models into an exhibit to be displayed in the Friend Center Library and to be used in precepts of another course, "Structures in the Urban Environment."

"The idea of the models is to begin to learn the process of how we build things," Garlock said. "You should never design something when you have no idea how to build it."
For her model, Wachter worked with another senior, Michaela Glaeser, to build a small version of the Willis Tower. However, Wachter said the class visit to Chicago confirmed that the John Hancock Center, with its crisscrossed outer beams, is still her favorite.
"You can see how the structure works from the outside," she said. "I love that it's so visually distinctive in the Chicago skyline."

In 1934 Elioth Gruner made one of several visits to the Canberra region where he painted Murrumbidgee Ranges, Canberra. In 1928 Gruner had purchased a car, which gave him the means to travel throughout the countryside on painting trips. He first visited Yass and Canberra in 1929 and was impressed by the crisp, clear light of the area. Over the next ten years he returned several times and completed some of his major late works in the district.
Murrumbidgee Ranges, Canberra is an arrangement of several views looking south-west from Canberra towards the Tidbinbilla and Brindabella ranges. While there are no Murrumbidgee Ranges as such, the Murrumbidgee River runs between Canberra and the Tidbinbilla Range. Gruner would have painted this work outdoors, and possibly in one sitting. Through his use of colour he has captured the sharp light of the Canberra region and the cool velvety softness of the surrounding mountains. He has also depicted signs of settlement, including sheep grazing quietly near the 'bush capital', distant trails of smoke and a car heading west towards the Murrumbidgee River.
Murrumbidgee Ranges, Canberra was awarded the 1934 Wynne Prize for landscape painting at the Art Gallery of New South Wales, Sydney. Indeed, Gruner won the prize seven times between 1916 and 1937. In 1937 Murrumbidgee Ranges, Canberra was exhibited in London in the Artists of the British Empire overseas exhibition at the Royal British Colonial Society of Artists.

Additional Scholarships
Scholarships are similar to grants in that money can be awarded to a student for academic achievement or success, such as being an honor student, winning essay contests, or participating in a certain number of hours in community service projects. Typically, scholarships are given by institutions, organizations, companies, or on behalf of prestigious people based on the student's academic merit as determined by the standards for each scholarship. The eligibility requirements for scholarships vary, but in most cases, students will follow the same general process: They will usually complete an application, provide financial and background information, and submit proof of certain academic achievement.
Scholarships do not have to be repaid, and are usually paid directly to the student's school. There are typically restrictions on what a scholarship can help cover. For example, scholarships may be applied towards tuition costs, but usually cannot be used for textbooks or other outside expenses related to schooling.

Q: What was your inspiration behind Attic Treasures?
A: "Attic Treasures" was inspired by two sources; an antique, worn and tattered stripe I purchased on one of my many "antique collecting" jaunts and a linen covered button I purchased several years back at Houston Quilt Market. The inspiration and "aha" moment were almost a "collision" at the same time. The antique stripe provided the "base" in which the collection would be created and the button provided the color palette and scale of the coordinating prints; and the rest just fell into place from there.
Q: What inspired you to pick the colors and designs in your Designer Select Fat Quarter Bundle?
A: The large tossed floral on blue ground was the jumping off point for my print selection. The print is chock full of pinks, greens, yellows and blues making the rest of the prints easy to select. I included the tonal dot in ivory as the neutral base to build any design upon. I also included the ivory and blue tonal as an additional design base rounding out a fun palette to let your creativity flow.
Q: What are 3 words you would choose to describe Attic Treasures?
A: 1. Soft/delicate pastel florals
2. Petite/ditsy prints
3. Classic/timeless design

A: I'm forever Pfaff girl. I didn't start on a Pfaff but you know what they say; "it's not where you start but rather where you land/end that matters. I [HEART] my Pfaff!
I alternate between my two machines; the "Producer" and the "Deadline Diva". No, the names are not Pfaff branded but rather names I have given my machines. Inevitably, the "Producer" is tried and true and gets the job done each and every time except when it comes to last minute deadlines and that's when I switch over to my "Deadline Diva" to get me to the finish line. I'm thinking about adding another Pfaff to the mix but I don't know what its real function would be. Maybe I need a machine that will help me "Chill"; sounds like it may come with an embroidery hoop.
*2 Truths and a Lie*
1. I used to decorate million dollar homes for Christmas
2. When I was young, I competed locally in Hoola Hoop contests
3. I ran in the same marathon as Oprah; it was CRAZY!!

In this short video, Princeton professors engage with school children about the wonders of science. Molecular biologist Bonnie Bassler (above) speaks about how she "loves talking to kids and doing outreach, and trying to make young people (or old people) think that science is cool, and it's mysterious and it's beautiful."

How many different ways do creatures communicate with one another? Howard Stone, Princeton's Donald R. Dixon and Elizabeth W. Dixon Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, and Bonnie Bassler, Princeton's Squibb Professor in Molecular Biology, enlist the help of elementary school students to explain the science of communication behind sound waves, pheromones, bioluminescence and more.
