The Sustainable Investor: In Pursuit of an Enlightened Investment Portfolio
15 Companies Tell Congress To Renew Key Wind Power Tax Credit
February 17, 2012
In a recent letter to Congress, fifteen of the country's largest consumers of alternative energy, including Starbucks, Yahoo! and Campbell's Soup, voiced their support for renewing the Production Tax Credit, (PTC) set to expire in December 2012. The letter states that the "PTC has enabled the industry to slash wind energy costs by some 90% since 1980..." Forbes magazine states that wind now supplies over 3% of US demand and accounts for 35% of new power capacity installed in the last four years. In the seven years that the PTC has been continuously in place, installed wind capacity has grown...Read Full Article...
Apple Takes It Up a Notch
February 14, 2012
Investor and consumer pressure can move mountains. Finally, Apple has agreed to take a hard look at the working conditions in its factories around the world. Apple Inc., now the world's largest company by market value, has dazzled consumers by essentially reinventing how we buy music, how we use our phones and how we access the web. The company has similarly dazzled investors with a share price that seems impervious to global economic challenges and bear markets. For responsible investors, Apple has been a conundrum: Environmentally conscious but practically devoid of philanthropic activity. Meticulously managed by a visionary leader but with...Read Full Article...
The Dollar Payoff from CSR and Sustainability
January 18, 2012
If investors needed proof of the financial value from sustainability -- it's here. Researchers at the Harvard Business School reviewed 18 years of data on more than 700 companies. Their findings were remarkable. "High sustainability" companies have not only been more profitable than their less responsible peers, their shares have performed significantly better. The numbers are impressive. One dollar invested in the most sustainable companies in 1993 was worth $22.60 by the end of 2010. The low sustainability group was worth "just" $15.40. "This finding suggests that companies can adopt environmentally and socially responsible policies without sacrificing shareholder wealth creation,†the...Read Full Article...

|Changing the handling of qnames at parse-time
|Mon, 10 Oct 2005 14:36:52 GMT
Lawrence, et. al., some thoughts on handling qnames in Woden ... The xxxElement interfaces in org.apache.woden.wsdl20.xml use javax.xml.namespace.QName to represent WSDL attributes of type xs:QName or xs:NCName (where the name is the local part of a qname) and QName[] for attributes containing a list of xs:QName. These QName objects or QName arrays are created at parse-time by the Reader. For example, InterfaceElement uses QName for the 'name' attribute of <interface> and QName[] for the 'extends' attribute - i.e. a list of qnames of extended interfaces. (note, the org.apache.woden.wsdl20.Interface component also uses QName for the 'name' property but it uses Interface[] for the 'extended interfaces' property). I based this approach on wsdl4j. However, in wsdl4j errors are reported by the Reader as they are encountered during parsing, so if there's a problem creating a QName object we can tell why. In Woden, with validation turned on, our approach is to parse the entire wsdl, even if it's incomplete or has errors, then use the validator component to check the model and report all errors. If there is a problem with a qname attribute at parsing time, e.g. the prefix cannot be resolved to a namespace declaration, then a QName object will not be created to represent that attribute. I'm concerned that at validation time, the cause for an error such as this will not be available to the validator - so the validator can tell a QName property is missing from the WSDL component model, but maybe can't tell why when it needs to report the error. I'm thinking about modifying the xxxElement interfaces to use String and String[] instead of QName and QName[] and change the Reader to just store the qname string from a WSDL attribute, instead of converting it to a QName object at parse-time. The QName object still gets created at some point for the component model interfaces, but now the validator also has access to the original qname string for diagnostic error reporting if necessary. So... org.apache.woden.wsdl20.Interface will remain as-is with: QName getName(); Interface[] getExtendedInterfaces[]; org.apache.woden.wsdl20.xml.InterfaceElement will change from: QName getName(); QName[] getExtendsQNames(); to String getNameAttr(); String[] getExtendsAttr(); Any thoughts on this? A related, but separate issue is whether to use interface inheritance to facilitate access to both sets of properties by the validator (e.g. InterfaceElement extends Interface and InterfaceImpl implements InterfaceElement). Through a suitable method on the Reader or elsewhere, a read-only user application could still just see the abstract component model, without being exposed to the xxxElement interfaces.

Hector Jacques O.C. is a Director of the Halifax Port Authority and founding partner of Jacques Whitford & Assoc. Ltd. The following opinion piece prepared by Mr. Jacques appeared in the Chronicle Herald on July 2, 2014.
July 2, 2014, Halifax, NS – My name is Hector Jacques and I write today as a member of the Nova Scotia business community. I have been a member of more than 23 Boards of Directors and chaired a few in my lifetime. In addition, I was the principal founder of Jacques Whitford, a Nova Scotia company that has become global leader in environmental engineering.
I am writing in response to a recent media report published in the Chronicle Herald concerning the Halifax Port Authority.
The Port of Halifax is a major economic driver for Atlantic Canada, generating more than 11-thousand jobs and $1.5 billion in economic impact annually. The Halifax Port Authority is the agent which administers Halifax Harbour and the associated 260 acres of federal land with a mandate to "develop, market and manage its assets in order to foster and promote trade and transportation."
As the co-founder and first CEO of a large multi-national engineering firm operating in global markets, I have an appreciation for how international business needs to work. After my retirement from corporate life, I was appointed to the Board of Directors on behalf of Halifax Regional Municipality, a position I proudly hold today as it allows me to work for the interests of Halifax and our province.
In order to maintain and grow business through the Port of Halifax, it is imperative that the Port Authority is present in those national and international markets where growth is occurring. This includes Europe, Southeast Asia, South America as well as the American Midwest and central Canada. The purpose of these trips is to meet with customers and potential customers, Canadian embassies, consulates and government officials. Together with port stakeholders and three levels of government, travel is undertaken according to a specific business plan which reflects key targets and growth prospects. The business plan is updated each year and approved by the Board of Directors. For the last five years, the total HPA travel and hospitality budget has been less than 2% of revenue.
International shipping is an incredibly competitive industry. In many cases customers and stakeholders of the Port of Halifax require considerable discretion in terms of business dealings and potential growth opportunities. The Halifax Port Authority maintains that travel and hospitality is commercially sensitive information. If that type of information is made public it would clearly signal to those businesses and companies competing against the Port of Halifax the areas in which growth opportunities are being pursued. This would diminish any competitive advantages, could very well lead to the loss of new or existing lines of business and could therefore contribute to the erosion of economic development and jobs for our port and our region. It could also result in potential or existing customers refusing to meet with HPA representatives out of concern such meetings may become a matter of public record.
There seems to be significant misunderstanding about the primary composition of the membership fee and expense component relating to Halifax Port Authority business activities. Memberships for the Port Authority are with strategic industry associations in which all major port authorities participate. These memberships and associated fees are essential to allow the Halifax Port Authority to effectively operate in key industry markets, and to develop relationships and support business development. The HPA takes an active role in these groups with management and staff serving on industry boards and committees – working to grow the Port of Halifax. The amount spent on membership fees is less than 2% of revenue.
The Halifax Port Authority has strong financial credentials which have enabled the organization to reinvest in strategic infrastructure important to the region and to Canada. Since 2011, over $100-million has been invested into port-related infrastructure that will be used to grow international trade and exports for Nova Scotia and Canada. The Halifax Seaport Farmers' Market is a community jewel in which the Port is proud to invest and partner with vendors. The HPA has maintained an investment grade credit rating of 'A' from Standard & Poor's for the past seven years inclusive and the recent rating has been upgraded to 'Positive'. Independent auditors Grant Thornton recently concluded the third Special Examination of the financial practices and management of the Halifax Port Authority since the coming into force of the Canada Marine Act. In early 2014, HPA received a clear audit report. Executive and board remuneration has been reviewed and validated by an independent third party; the details are disclosed annually in the audited financial statements.
The Halifax Port Authority endorses and supports accountability and transparency in business dealings. Information relating to HPA financial statements can be found at http://portofhalifax.ca/english/about-us/financial-informaton/annual-reports.html. However, in the interest of maintaining and growing business through the Port of Halifax it is not always possible to disclose the level of financial detail requested by some. That is why financial statements are audited by an independent third party, the results of which are advertised and presented publically during the annual general meeting with ample opportunity for questions.
The Halifax Port Authority regularly holds port tours and information sessions for customers, stakeholders and elected officials of all levels of government. This remains an open invitation.
Finally, everyone knows that a simple recitation of costs is not the whole picture. Results are what really determine the success of any organization. Lack of results in Nova Scotia are one of the main concerns identified in the "Now or Never" report commissioned by Ray Ivany; in the spirit of that report, the "One Nova Scotia Coalition" is now working to set aside partisan, sectoral and competitive interests in a new spirit of cooperation in order to grow the economy for the betterment of all Nova Scotians. At Jacques Whitford, we outspent most firms on business development by quantum leaps, but the explosive growth we had as an organization, (better than 15% year over year) is vindication that we were doing the right thing. I have and will always be driven by results. In that vein, I invite everyone to look at HPA results to date. You will be most astonished how well the Port of Halifax has done in relation to other comparable ports. I know our CEO would welcome that opportunity.
Hector Jacques O.C., M.Eng. D. Comm. (Hon.), P. Eng. FEIC, D. Law (Hon.)

A Foster Mom, Fosters Hope
May 05, 2016 | Karen Ferrell
"Can you take a 12 year old girl? Can we come in about an hour?."
This statement is usually how it starts. Child Protective Services (CPS) goes to a school to interview a child who has been a victim of child abuse or neglect. The student is then removed from school and told, "You are going to come with me and I am going to take you somewhere where you can be safe." The child is placed in an office where they wait. While they wait, CPS workers start calling foster care agencies looking for a place the child can go. "Do you have an opening for a child? Can you take an African American 12-year-old?"
What has the child been through? What kind of behavior does the child have?
These are all questions swirling through the mind of a foster mom before the child comes to their home. The child is taken to the foster home, sad, afraid, nervous, angry, and tired. They are in a stranger's home with no idea what is about to happen. But, I can tell you what is about to happen. The child will be met with love, care and concern by their new foster mother. See a foster mother is a special kind of mother. They love and care for children who are not theirs biologically. They provide for the daily educational, emotional and social needs of children who have been removed from their family until they can be reunited with their parents. Often foster mothers do not get the recognition they deserve but they are truly doing the work of God. In a moment's notice foster moms have to get ready to take a child into their home. They have to get clothes, prepare a bed and personal space for a child they have never met. Foster mothers get children enrolled in school, examined by medical professionals and take them to counseling.
Psalms 10:14 says, "But you, God, see the trouble of the afflicted; you consider their grief and take it in hand. The victims commit themselves to you; you are the helper of the fatherless.
Meet Maria Cottman
Ms. Cottman is a foster parent at UNIFY Child Placing Agency. She has been foster parenting children for over 15 years. Ms. Cottman currently serves adolescent girls ages 12 to 16 who have developmental and intellectual disabilities, severe behavioral challenges and who have suffered various types of abuse and neglect. I had the pleasure of asking Ms. Cottman few questions about being a foster mother.
K: Why do you foster?
M: There are so many children out here who have no one to love them and help them be successful in life. I just want them to know that they are loved and they can have a family.
K: Tell me about what it like for you when children leave your home and go back to their biological family?
M: If I know the move will be healthy for them, I'm happy. If know that child is still having problems, then my heart goes out to them and I keep them in prayer. My main goal is to help kids stay safe and help them build their faith.
K: What are the biggest challenges you have faced in dealing with troubled children?
M: The biggest challenge is getting troubled children to love themselves, understand that they are not worthless and that their lives have value.
K: Where do you see your faith come into play when you foster?
M: I see God working through me, when I see changes in the children I foster. I see God when they learn to love themselves, when their self-esteem rises, when they make strides in areas where they are weak, and when people doubt them and they still become successful.
K: What do you try to teach foster children about God?
M: No matter what you go through in life remember that God loves you and he can help you get through anything if you believe in him.
K: What are your biggest dreams for yourself as is relates to fostering?
M: I would like purchase land so foster kids can come and enjoy activities like horseback riding, tennis, fishing, and really make a "mini resort" for foster kids to come and enjoy life while they are going through healing from trauma and being away from family.
Psalms 68:5 says, "A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in his holy dwelling." If we are striving to be like God then we must do what we can to help children in foster care who need someone to be there for them just like Maria Cottman does.

UT and the Money Question
Why We Can't Get Classes
By Tom Philpott and Scott Henson
Spring 1990 Adds and Drops Extra
"Must one smash their ears before they learn to listen with their eyes?"
-Nietzsche, Thus Spoke Zarathustra
The UT administration's chief excuse for not providing enough teachers to teach classes is lack of funds. Upon examination, however, this claim withers. From its founding in 1883, it took the University 96 years, until 1979, for the UT-Austin budget to grow to $149 million. Within the next ten years, the budget more than doubled, to $328 million. Adjusted for inflation, this amounts to at least a 63 percent increase. In the meantime, numbers of undergraduates increased by about 10 percent, and numbers of faculty grew by 7 percent. Where has all the money gone?
The Political Economy of UT's Understaffing Crisis
In short, both the University and the UT System have funneled money, capital and resources that should have gone to pay for classes into promoting local industry instead. The first stage of the policy began in the early '80s, as Texas policymakers began to fear the oil bonanza couldn't last forever. Diversification of the economy - mostly in the form of high-tech industry - slowly became a priority among the state's lawmakers and opinion leaders, picking up speed when oil prices crashed.
Basing their plans on the Dukakis model, formerly known as the "Massachusetts Miracle," they decided to use the state's universities to mold and boost the economy, much like Michael Dukakis farmed out MIT to multinational corporations and the defense department.
The final phase of this plan was to bring the Microelectronics and Computer Technology Corporation (MCC) to Austin. A consortium of major defense contractors, MCC develops software and studies artificial intelligence. George Kozmetsky, the former business school dean who's credited with luring MCC to Austin, described the consortium's goal as to create "a new paradigm" for Reagan's Strategic Defense Initiative.
To lure the consortium, the UT-System purchased $14 million worth of land and buildings, which it rents to MCC for $2 per year - $1 for the land, $1 for the building. MCC also houses some $20 million in UT-owned capital. In addition, the University had to agree to beef up its computer science and electrical engineering departments to bring MCC to Austin. In return, MCC would provide employment for a handful of graduate students and high-tech research grants for a few professors. Of the $34 million UT spent, undergraduates received none of the quid pro quo.
The UT-System, egged on by the state's politicians, continued its liberal spending for "economic development" throughout the decade. The austerity measures UT implemented in the mid-80s - cuts in library hours, a ninefold tuition increase and a faculty hiring freeze - didn't extend the University's corporate beneficiaries. In the summer of 1984, only months after the imposition of austerity, the UT Board of Regents approved $16 million in matching funds to endow 32 chairs at $1 million apiece. Some of these chairs were reserved to do research for MCC, and hiring for these chairs continued throughout the "hiring freeze."
Later that year, the regents spent another $20 million for a new Cray supercomputer. Jess Hay, then-chair of the regents, linked that purchase directly to the endowed chairs, declaring it "an essential next step if we are going to maximize the use of the 32 endowed chairs."
Also that fall, UT-System Chancellor Hans Mark proposed funding for 5 new high-tech research institutes, three of which were eventually built. When asked about these expenditures in the face of austerity, Mark announced that only budgets of units in the UT-System with "clear applications of creating new jobs" would be increased. Required lower-division classes, the reader will imagine, possess little job-creating potential.
More recently, in 1988 the UT-System agreed to dole out $12.3 million for land and buildings to lure the Sematech consortium, a collaborative effort among defense contractors and the defense department. State and local taxpayers laid out another $56 million or so to draw Sematech to Austin.
Although other cities competed heavily for the consortium, as Hans Mark put it, UT "put green money on the table ... Other places also said they'd go to their legislatures. But we said, 'When you get to town, you'll have a bank account you can draw on.'" The following fall, in 1989, 1,000 students were turned away from E316k during adds and drops, with UT President Cunningham claiming UT's "lack of funds" as the reason.
All of these high-tech research expenditures were gambles - the university and the state had hoped that, in the long term, they would boost the economy. The economy, however, didn't cooperate. MCC, for instance, placed its hopes on a boom in SDI fund, which never occured. In fact, in the post-Cold War era, banking on SDI monies appears increasingly hopeless.
Sematech, too, has provided fewer benefits than its champions had predicted. Now it appears that the defense department, which provides $100 million annually to Sematech's budget, may pull out of the consortium. That would leave Austin, which has had great difficulty prying taxes out of Sematech, with little to show for its multi-million dollar investment.
In fact, hinging Austin's economic future on high-tech manufacturing appears to have been a fundamentally flawed decision, both in terms of economic development and the damage done to Austin's quality of life. The Austin American-Statesman worriedly reports that the chip equipment business will decline by 13 percent in 1990. And former MCC chief, Bobby Inman, just took Tracor - the only home-grown Fortune 500 company in Austin's high-tech industry - into banktruptcy. Meanwhile, the Sematech facilities pumped "hundreds of gallons" chlorofluorcarbons into the air last year, according to Mother Jones magazine. And the Austin plan of California's Advanced Micro Devices was named one of the 500 worst polluters in the country by National Wildlife Foundation.
So, UT's subsidies to corporate research have yielded little benefit to the state's economy, or to the Austin community. But what were the opportunity costs of such extravagant expenditures?
Following the Money
Ultimately, undergraduate education was the main victim of the state's ill-fated industrial policy. To use the University as a mechanism to promote the high-tech industry, UT had to shift its resources to buying both intellectual and physical capital for these firms, and away from educating students.
In the MCC deal, as noted above, the University promised to pour more resources into the computer science and electrical engineering budgets. And as we can see from Table 1, UT kept its promise. While liberal arts departments struggled under growing budget constraints, computer science and electrical engineering budgets far outstripped increases in numbers of students taught.
Since 1980 in computer science, the per-student resident instruction budget increased by 216 percent after inflation. Meanwhile, the number of students taught in that department rose only by 2.4 percent. In electrical engineering, too, per-student budget figures outstripped increases in numbers of students taught by a 3-1 margin. Spanish and Portuguese, on the other hand, displayed exactly the opposite trend over the same period. While the number of students taking these courses increased by 67.6 percent, the per-student resident instruction budget declined by 57 percent after inflation. The French and Italian department suffered a similarly harsh budget crunch.
The implications are clear. The University requires that a great majority of students take several language classes, yet slashes budgets in those departments. Engineering and computer science disciplines serve drastically fewer students, and the University floods them with money.
This phenomenon becomes even clearer when we compare college budgets with their student populations. Using numbers from the UT Office of Institutional Studies' Statistical Handbook, Polemicist computes that between 1980 and 1989 the number of liberal arts majors increased by more than 66 percent, while the liberal arts budget increased only 29.3 percent after inflation. Over the same period, the budget for the College of Engineering increased 94.1 percent after inflation, while the number of engineering majors actually dropped by 16.1 percent.
Similarly, the ratios of full-time equivalent students to full-time equivalent faculty betray the same trend. The University calls this number the student-faculty ratio - a patently absurd claim, since the number in no way reflects class size. But it does provide a useful tool for comparison. Between 1980 and 1989, this ratio grew in the liberal arts college from 25.76-1 to 28.28-1. During the same period, the ratio in engineering declined from 19.33-1 to 15.61-1.
It should be noted that the liberal arts college is the largest on campus, with more than twice as many undergraduates as the engineering college. The shift in resources to the engineering school defies any rational cost-benefit analysis based on students' needs. It can only be explained by examining the external constituencies - like MCC and Sematech - that the University serves.
Statistical Note
The "FTE student" number measures total students taught by department. It's derived by dividing undergraduate semester hours by 15, masters hours by 12, and doctoral hours by 9.
This same trend can be detected in other areas. Graduate students teach about 25 percent of all undergraduate liberal arts classes, compared to 5 percent in the engineering school. Further, tenured faculty teach less than 40 percent of all liberal arts classes, as compared to nearly 60 percent in the engineering college. In the business school - long notorious for bolstering its MBA program at the expense of its undergraduates - about 28 percent of undergraduate classes are taught by graduate students, and only 30 percent are taught by tenured faculty.
As we can see from Table 2, this reflects a recent trend in UT's hiring practices. Perhaps to minimize the cost of teaching non-engineering students, UT began hiring fewer tenure-track faculty in favor of cheaper labor in the form of graduate students. This has several meaningful implications. First, while graduate students are certainly qualified to teach some classes, clearly the quality of undergraduate instruction goes down when fewer classes are taught by real professors. Also, the shift to grad-student teachers means that the people who teach undergraduates - and who therefore are the logical advocates for undergraduate programs - are excluded from the departmental decision-making process, since such power is reserved for faculty.
The University's pay-raise outlays over the last ten years also show a bias toward departments with high-tech applications, particularly, and not surprisingly, computer sciences and electrical engineering. As outlined in Table 3, teachers in language departments received tiny pay increases; pay increases for liberal arts and pure science professors averaged around 30 percent; and electrical engineering and computer sciences professors received average pay boosts approaching 70 percent.
This dramatizes yet again the University's tendency to pour money to the departments it promised to bolster the MCC deal, and leave department that more directly serve undergraduates scrambling for the table scraps.
Cunningham's Response: Attack Undergraduates
This striking shift in funds has resulted in the understaffing crisis, which stands students in long lines, waiting for the chance to beg their way into huge sections of required classes. Along with The Daily Texan, President Cunningham, with typical slyness, has framed the problem in terms of "overenrollment." With this sleight of syntax, Cunningham removes responsibility for the crisis from the policymakers whose ideas caused it and instead blames its chief victims: undergraduate students.
In an over-long and fluff-filled three-part apology in The Daily Texan last fall, Cunningham laid out this rationale and hinted darkly at its implications. He argued that part of the reason UT doesn't sufficiently fund undergraduate programs was the funding mechanism the Legislature imposes on the University. The state provides funds based on the number of undergraduate, masters and doctoral students, with UT receiving more money for graduate students than for undergrads.
Cunningham claims that these limitations keeps UT from hiring more professors to teach undergrads, since the mechanism supposedly earmarks a large chunk of the budget exclusively for graduate education. And since we can't hire more teachers for undergrads, or the rationalization goes, there's no choice but to slash undergraduate enrollment.
First, that conclusion is based on a false assumption - UT doesn't have to spend its state money in the proportions the Legislature doles it out. According to a law passed in 1985, "Each governing board [for UT, the Board of Regents] participating in the distribution of funds as described in this section may expend such funds without limitation, and as such governing board may decide in its sole discretion for any and all purposes described in Article VIII, Section 17, of the Constitution of Texas." This means that the regents can spend money from the legislature on anything covered in the University's charter, unfettered by the funding mechanism that Dr. Cunningham chooses to hide behind. Understaffing isn't a structural flaw, it's the result of conscious decisions by the people who run UT.
Second, Cunningham himself has pointed to another obvious flaw in his own rationale. In a report to the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board last July, he declared that "reducing enrollment is tantamount to reducing appropriations," because "support from the Legislature for higher education in Texas is determined by formulas that are based on student enrollment." So, if funding is the problem, then Cunningham should be happy the present enrollment figures - they maintain UT's budget.
In fact, it's been well established that even large cuts in enrollment wouldn't solve UT's understaffing woes. According to the August 3, 1989 recommendations from the president's ad hoc Committee on Undergraduate Admission and Enrollment Policies, also known as the Dolouisio Committee, "most of the [understaffing] problems remain evein if enrollment drops to 46,000." And in the above-cited report to the Coordinating Board, Cunningham himself notes that "with some exceptions - UT Austin has the laboratories, classrooms, and other facilities to handle 50,000 students."
But in the same report, Cunningham released two potential 5-year plans for UT-Austin enrollment - one that would allow overall enrollment to increase, and one that would maintain it at around 50,000. (Overall enrollment includes graduate students, undergrads, and law students.) Since that time, Cunningham has announced that UT will try to maintain overall enrollment at its present level.
A look at the plan to maintain overall enrollment at 50,000 reveals that Cunningham indeed plans to cut the total number of undergradutes and replace them with - surprise - graduate students. The proposal would cut undergradute enrollment from 38,100 students to 37,400 over the next five years, and boost the number of grad students from 10,500 to 11,400. These enrollment projections were explicitly stated in a detailed chart. If the University had chosen the alternative plan - allowing enrollment to grow slightly - then undergraduate enrollment would stagnate while the number of graduate students would increase by 1,700.
Clearly the crux of UT's enrollment policy is finding a way to maintain its flow of cheap researchers (read: grad students). Undergraduates, especially non-engineering ones, just get in the way.
This plan also exposes another of Cunningham's lies. At an open forum with the students last fall, one of the authors asked Cunningham if we would pledge not to "manage" the understaffing crisis by cutting undergraduate enrollment. He agreed, in contradiction to stated policy.
But perhaps the most egregious aspect of Cunningham's plan to slash enrollment is his method: He wants to radically reduce the number of "provisional students" who successfully educate themselves at the University. The provisional-student program operates under the assumption that people's high-school performance and standardized-test scores shouldn't rigidly determine their future lives. It lets students who don't meet the University's admission standards - but who still meet other, less stringent standards - enroll in summer or spring semesters. Meeting a certain grade-point-average requirement, these students then gain regular status the next semester.
In his report to the Coordinating Board, Cunningham celebrated the Board of Regents' decision to boost the provisional GPA requirement beyond any reasonable point - from 1.5 to 2.25, effective summer '89. This means that even provisional students who pass all their classes don't necessarily earn the right to continue as students. These students are held to a higher standard, even, than students with relatively high high-school GPAs.
More offensive still is the nasty letter Cunningham sent last summer to potential provisional students. He bragged to the Coordinating Board that "2,800 [high-school seniors] falling in the provisional category received letters informing them that students with similar high school backgrounds have historically experienced difficulty at the University. These students were strongly encourage to attend other institutions."
This policy may be usefully compared to graduate students attempts last spring to mail letters to prospective UT grad students, informing them about the University's abominable health-care policies. The administration strongly opposed such an action, even though the students' letter wasn't nearly as blunt or direct as the one Cunningham sent out in the summer.
But when average students seem to threaten the University's role as manager of the state's economy and benefactor of multinational corporations, Cunningham simply tells average students go somehwere else - even when he knows that repelling them won't remedy the University's understaffing dilemma.
It's ironic, then, that in the same report to the Coordinating Board, Cunningham can roll out what he calls Texas' "populist tradition," and even "applaud" it. This former marketing professor is a walking, talking betrayal of every populist Texas idea imaginable.
Polemicist's Response: Fight Back
Our student leadership has reacted with characteristic docility in the face of this onslaught. Since leaders won't lead students, it's time for students to lead the leaders. Cunningham sends letter to students he doesn't want, so we should send letters to students he does want: Namely, National Merit Scholars. UT's number of NMS students is Cunningham's last vestige of credibility. He even accounced it at last fall's UT-OU game (You'll notice he didn't announce the student-faculty ratio.) The time has come to attack that number. The NMS mailing list is readily available. After all, every college in the country uses it. The simplest way to affect UT's priorities is to threaten to mail copies of the "Grade the University" results, or even this column, to every NMS student in the country, if UT doesn't immediately hire, say 200 more professors. It's time for students to rise up, and show Cunningham what "Texas Populism" really means.

The Army had been paying close attention to the Navy's operation to drive Iranian hackers from the unclassified portion of the service's intranet.

The investigation centres on the Tate Gallery in London following allegations that its archives were tampered with in order to authenticate forged paintings by modern Masters.
Scotland Yard has already made several arrests during the investigation, which began several months ago and involves works by, among others, Ben Nicholson and Giacommetti.
"We can confirm that our Arts and Antiques Focus Unit, which is part of our Specialist Operations Organised Crime Group is conducting an ongoing investigation relating to records kept in the Tate Gallery," a Scotland Yard spokeswoman said yesterday. Police would not comment further, saying that the investigation was at a "sensitive" stage.
The fraud, thought to stretch back over five years, appears to have been operated by a number of people. One creates a painting and a second visits an archive and alters or adds to information in the artist's file so that the new work appears to be authentic.
A third person, the "dealer", is then able to sell the work as genuine, telling the buyer that it can be authenticated at a reputable archive source. Police fear that the same technique is being employed in numerous other galleries, involving other artists' work.
It has been discovered that catalogues, widely used in the art world as the authoritative guide to an artist's work, are said to include references to the forged artworks, giving them false credibility.
Those arrested have been released on police bail, pending further inquiries. They are not thought to be related to the art galleries concerned, none of which have been implicated in the inquiries.
The investigation is thought to have been triggered when a London-based art dealer bought a watercolour painting by the British artist Ben Nicholson for pounds 18,000 "in good faith" - that is without official records to authenticate it.
The dealer went to the Tate archives to check the work's history, and discovered it was a forgery. A number of alterations to the Tate's archive of Nicholson material, in order to validate the new, forged works of art, were later discovered.
All the forged works were described by one source as having "an extremely strong provenance" (authenticated history), which is why the fraud went undetected for so long.
"I have seen Nicholson paintings over the years which at first I accepted in good faith but then I came to realise something was wrong," said one expert. He added that if a work seemed a little "off", in some cases experts would assume that "the artist had had a bad day".
A spokesman for the Tate Gallery yesterday confirmed that the investigation was taking place, but refused to comment. "It is ongoing and we're co- operating," he said.
During the course of its investigations, Scotland Yard's Arts and Antiques Squad is said to have been searching for one man in particular, who is believed to have been using the pseudonym "John".
The Tate's archives are available to the public by appointment and are widely used by students and dealers attempting to authenticate or trace the history of works of art.
Staff at the Arts Council, which also holds an extensive archive of British art, are also believed to be among those people questioned by police to determine whether they have been approached by the man.
Pamela Griffin, who manages the Arts Council archive, said she knew nothing about the inquiry and added that all files were given out individually and only available to be studied under supervision.Reuse content

This house was even more than our group expected! There was plenty of space and everything was provided. Some of the group went skiing at West Mtn while the rest of were able to stay back and snowshoe nearby. I will definitely be booking again in the future! We were able to celebrate the New Year in a comfortable environment where and had a blast. Highly recommend!
the house was clean and comfertable. we had everything we needed and more. thank you
The cabin was very sweet, with more than enough room for our party of 8 adults. We didn't spend much time inside but did make use of the outdoor space which was equipped with a large table, fire pit, tiki torches, and yard furniture to sit around the fire. As previous reviews note, the house is also stocked with pretty much everything you need kitchen-wise and there are a million towels at your disposal. The bedrooms were also all very comfortable. The single bathroom was not an issue for the most part but I'd suggest being strategic in the morning with your timing. We'd hoped the pond would be another swimming option but it wasn't, although it was very beautiful and serene as a backdrop. The location of the house is overall ideal, within walking distance from the rodeo and the nearby beach. We loved this house and immediately felt that it was ours. My only complaint is the early checkout time of 10 AM - this is the real time so be prepared. My group was unfortunately not but the cleaning crew was accommodating as we got moving.
We had 9 adults and 1 teen in our group and the accommodations were perfect. With a little conversation between us we easily managed having just the one bathroom. The property is exactly as listed with the addition of a small room off the front entry with a cot that could be used as a bedroom. The location was perfect, just 7 miles from Lake George and Americade. The property was well stocked with kitchen cooking items and the firepit area behind the home was stocked with plenty of folding chairs and 1 large picnic tables for hanging out for a cookout. The gas grill does need new burners but with the kitchen stove that worked well we really didn't miss the use of the grill. I did have several questions about the property prior to rental & the manager was quick with responses so I could book with confidence. Thank you for a great travel experience Home Away rentals!
The cabin was perfect for a weekend getaway. It fit 8 people comfortably and delivered on the amenities that were listed in the advertisement. The cabin had a wifi router, which allowed all 8 of us to connect and have access to high speed internet. There were plenty of glasses, china and cutlery to use for our meals. The property manger was great as well. We ran out of propane on the gas grill and Wendy was able to drop off a new one before our next meal. Would definitely consider renting this property again. Thank you Wendy!
This house fit the needs of our 6 adults and 2 small children perfectly with room for us to be together and room for us to have privacy as well. The kitchen was exceptionally well-stocked with cookware, appliances, and dishes. The entertainment system met all our needs and there were board games available as well. We did have a problem with the water pump the first day, but the property manager was very responsive and it was fixed within the day. The internet connection worked fine, but cell phone service was intermittent. We would return.

The Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) saw close to four lakh e-tickets being booked on its website on July 11, the highest figure so far for a single day.
"On July 11, we registered 3.78 lakh ticket bookings on our website," said an IRCTC official.
The record comes in the backdrop of the Railway Ministry launching its own e-ticket service on its official portal, bringing in competition in this space.
The official said the servers are also being augmented so as to facilitate ease of booking through the IRCTC website.
It is also in the process of adoption of latest technology for monitoring user profile to prevent cornering of berths by unscrupulous elements, payment gateway performance monitoring etc, the official said.
The Railway PSU has also introduced ticket booking facilities for air travellers besides hotel bookings, tour packages and cab services, "with most of them getting good response from users," the official said.

When you think of Asian horror films, the first ones to come in mind are Ju-ons and Rings, right? Well, me and my sis decided to try something else from the same parts of the World... (Horror films are best watched with others).
Suicide Club (2002)
Suicide club is a Japanese horror film in which suicides start to occur in significant amounts and without any clear reason. One person or a group of 50, what comes of it is blood and a headache to the local police, as at the scene there is a gory skin roll of multiple persons to be found, a weird Internet sites are predicting the coming deaths and some kid gives mysterious calls with tips to the police HQ. It definitely isn't an accident but is it a murder?
The film starts off with scenes that rise the questions in a right way and one really wants to get to the core of the mystery. While people keep jumping down at lethal places, the horror seems to be offline more and more all the time. And as the movie goes on the plot starts to get very.. adventurous, with lots of seemingly quite irrelevant things and the closer we get to the end the more the stuff starts to go right over one's head. So in the end we were pretty much "whaaaaat?!". The movie might have gotten an award and lots of interested looks from some people, but I must say no, I didn't like it.
So, moving on to next one...
One Missed Call (Chakushin Ari) (2004)
One Missed Call is a Japanese horror film directed by Takashi Miike. One evening during a happy get-together of friends, one of them gets a phone call with unknown ringing voice. The call goes to the voice mail and when she listens it, she hears her own voice speaking, then screaming and then... silence. To add to the mystery, the phone call seems to have come two days from the future. When similar chains of events start to lead to deaths, we have a mystery to solve with only 48h of time before someone is going to die.
All right! Now we got to the business! This is a horror movie for sure, even if using familiar horror elements (like the creeping black hair you see in many, and abandoned hospitals and so on), it doesn't feel used to me. And the mystery isn't clear, so there is also the answer to look forward to as the characters are running for their lives. And that ring tone... it just tells me to that it want's to be used in some pranks! Haha... I might recommend this movie for horror seekers, yet be prepared for the fact that it has sequels and they already knew they would make some when they were ending the film...
And the topic was "Asian Horror" and not "Japanese Horror", beacuse...
The Doll Master (Inhyeongsa) (2004)
In this South Korean horror film, a group of young people are invited to a remote mansion to work as models for a BJD sculptor. As they arrive to the mansion, they find it filled with dolls, beautiful, yet somewhat creepy at times. Aside of the artist lady and her brother, there doesn't seem to be anyone around -except for a young girl in a red dress, though only the main character seems to have seen her. After a while mysterious deaths are starting to occur in a worrying fast pace, and the murderer must be amongst them... for there is no one around but the dolls... right?
BJDs. As a hobbyists this was a must-see film to us. As for how scary it was... well, it was trying to get there and almost got there too a time or two. But in the end I found the story to have more of a melancholy tone than a horror one. Nevertheless, I must say that I did like it. But if you want to see horror, and get scared so you can't sleep, well, then this isn't the one for you. But maybe all those who once loved a toy, a doll perhaps even, might find something in this that will make it worth your while.
Noo, the 10th month is at it's end! How fast it was! I didn't have time to enjoy it the right way!
Well at least there is going to be some related stuff next weekend still, before letting this wonderful holiday rest for a year.
We also watched Donnie Darko ("...Mad world" *singing*) and The Crow (adoring this one)that night, and now I'm going to include a pic of the evil guy from The Crow just because.
Michael Wincott as Top Dollar, ie the evil guy. And look at his hair! If I hadn't been sitting on the floor all along I would have dropped on the floor every time he came to screen. Such a handsome man, and I'm worshiping that hairdo. Just by the way, he has also played Guy of Gisbourne in Robin Hood and Rochefort in The Three Musketeers, and he is nailing it.
