Our MA in Reasoning offers an opportunity to study topics related to reasoning and inference as a specialised discipline within philosophy.
Reasoning is the process of forming conclusions, inferences or judgements. This MA programme covers areas such as cognitive science and artificial intelligence (AI); scientific, mathematical, logical, causal and inductive reasoning; philosophy of mind, logic and language. Offered with the Department of Philosophy, the programme enables you to either focus exclusively on philosophical topics or study reasoning-related topics in psychology, computing, statistics, law, social policy, biosciences and history.
In the autumn and spring terms, you take a choice of four modules, including our graduate seminar, where staff offer sessions relating to their current research. You then undertake a 8,000-10,000 word dissertation over the summer with supervision from an expert within the department.
The programme is ideal for philosophy graduates who would like to widen their knowledge of reason-related topics (psychology, legal, machine, scientific reasoning), graduates with previous training in a reason-related topic who wishes to pursue an enquiry into its philosophical foundations, or those who wish to pursue these interests at postgraduate level for its own sake, as well as for those who wish to explore areas of specialisation in preparation for a PhD.
National ratings
In the Research Excellence Framework (REF) 2014, philosophy was ranked 12th for research impact in the UK. We were also ranked 16th for research intensity and in the top 20 for research power.
An impressive 100% of our research-active staff submitted to the REF and 97% of our research was judged to be of international quality. The School's environment was judged to be conducive to supporting the development of world-leading research.
Course structure
The MA in Reasoning comprises four 30-credit coursework modules (for a total of 120 credits) and a dissertation (60 credits). You take the coursework modules in conjunction with students on the MA in Philosophy, but focus on reasoning-related topics.
All MA students are expected to attend, and may choose to be assessed on the basis of essays on topics covered in, our Graduate Seminars. The seminars are divided into two streams: Theoretical Reasoning, and History of Philosophy and Practical Philosophy. Topics covered vary each year in line with current staff research. If you choose to be assessed in this way, you will be expected to write on reasoning-related topics.
In addition to attending the graduate seminars, MA students may, in consultation with the MA Programme Director, choose from a number of mixed undergraduate/graduate modules, typically assessed by a 4,000-word essay. The module offering varies from year to year, and you will be expected to focus on modules relating to reasoning. For a complete list of what is currently offered, please consult the Stage 2/3 module list.
You can also take a range of non-core modules which vary year on year. Please note that not all modules will run every year. The range of modules available for selection in any particular year depends on student demand, staff sabbatical arrangements and timetable constraints. If you would like further information, please contact us.
Upon successful completion of the four coursework essays, students proceed to the writing of the dissertation.
The following modules are indicative of those offered on this programme. This list is based on the current curriculum and may change year to year in response to new curriculum developments and innovation. Most programmes will require you to study a combination of compulsory and optional modules. You may also have the option to take modules from other programmes so that you may customise your programme and explore other subject areas that interest you.

I recently was a guest on a radio show and was a little nervous about it. So, I wrote up a few notes and set them in front of me as the interview started. What happened next was a little strange. My left eye became blurry and I couldn't read. My notes were useless and I knew I had to "wing it". I was definitely out of my comfort zone and fear started telling me to run.
When comfort zones are stretched, fear will start chattering about staying safe. "Don't do that. They may not like you. It's too big a risk. Why put yourself out there? I can keep you safe if you don't do it."
If we let that voice of fear control us, we stay stuck and play small. Without building new skills and meeting new people we miss out on the possibilities before us and will eventually regret not living our lives fully. Continue reading

By Robert Bianco, USA TODAY
Maybe this time.
Broadcast networks and their viewers may not always see eye-to-eye, but there's one area in which they are in total agreement. Both share similar hopes for fall: That it will provide some exciting new hit, some hilarious new sitcom or stirring new drama to enchant viewers and enhance the network's bottom line.
Happily this year, there's reason for hope. There may not be another Modern Family or Glee in the new fall arrivals — or anything to replace such vanished classics as Lost or 24. But based on what the networks showed to their gathered advertisers in New York, there's likely to be a number of new hits you may want to add to your weekly rotation.
Keep in mind that what follows are just first impressions; shows and schedules can change between now and fall, and many shows that look great in clips look worse when seen in full. Still, with the 2009 season behind us and the summer stretching ahead, it can't hurt to look forward to fall with anticipation rather than dread. So here's what, for now, looks like the best of what lies ahead.
Hold a good thought, and we'll see how it turns out in September.
ABC: Ramping up
the sitcom laughs
Whatever problems it may have on the drama front, ABC seems set to keep you laughing.
Last year, ABC didn't just have the best new sitcom, it had the three best new sitcoms (Modern Family, The Middle, Cougar Town). While it may face tough competition for that top prize this season from CBS, ABC can still celebrate the arrival of another likely winner: Better Together.
Together is a multi-couple comedy (a popular format next season) focusing on two very different sisters — one too practical, one too compulsive — and their boyfriends. Joanna Garcia and Jennifer Finnigan star as the girls, but the scene-stealer in the clip was the wonderful Debra Jo Rupp, playing a much more steely but equally funny mom than she did on That '70s Show.
ABC's hours range from the Disney Channelish fantasy No Ordinary Family to the thirtysomething-tinged My Generation. But keep your hopes pinned on Detroit 1-8-7, a cop show starring Michael Imperioli and James McDaniel that, if we're lucky, will recall another ABC hit: NYPD Blue.
And that's no laughing matter.
CBS: Talk about comedy ...
If network TV is a game, no one plays it better than CBS.
Already the home of TV's most popular comedies, Two and a Half Men and The Big Bang Theory, the network is now introducing two more that are almost certain to be the season's most talked about: Mike & Molly, a comedy about overweight lovers from the creator of Men and Bang; and $#*! My Dad Says, an Internet-inspired sitcom starring William Shatner.
As if that Dad title alone isn't enough to get people talking, CBS is teaming it with Big Bang on Thursday, challenging NBC's decades-long comedy monopoly on the night. Which is what happens when you try to maintain a monopoly with shows that on many nights only draw around 5 million viewers.
In addition to its possible sitcom successes, CBS also has what would seem to be one of the more likely hourlong survivors in Hawaii Five-0, a slick-looking remake starring a network favorite, Alex O'Loughlin. It may not be the most exciting concept on the block, but it will probably be a hit, because if there's one thing you can count on from CBS these days, it's that it knows how to make hits.
And come to think of it, that is pretty exciting.
Fox: Drama, two sitcoms helping stability
The last thing we ever expected from Fox was stability.
But that's exactly what you're getting this fall. The network has only two new hours of programming scheduled for September, one new drama (Lonestar) and two new sitcoms (Raising Hope and Running Wilde). Granted, in typical Fox eggs-counted-before-hatching fashion, that total does depend on The Good Guys surviving its summer run. Still, that's an impressive achievement for a network that, back in its dark days, used to seem to schedule by throwing show titles in the air and seeing where they landed.
As for what has landed this year, anyone who has ever loved a prime-time soap should keep fingers crossed for Lonestar, a Texas-based drama about an oil-company con man who begins to embrace his own con. The cast (which includes Jon Voight) looks fine, but in this case, pin your hopes on the producers: Chris Keyser and Amy Lippman, who gave Fox one of its best-ever dramas, Party of Five.
If they can give us another show of that caliber — and launch as many stars as they did with Five —expectations will be exceeded indeed.
NBC: 'Lost' guru J.J. Abrams adding to the drama
Welcome back to the network game, NBC.
Believe me, having NBC act like an actual broadcast network again — one that actually seems interested in developing decent scripted programming — is incredibly welcome news. As much fun as it may have been to mock NBC's multiple blunders, we are all better off as viewers when there are four strong major networks competing for our attention.
To be competitive, NBC desperately needs some viable new dramas — and it may have found one in Undercovers. TV superstar J.J. Abrams (Lost, Fringe) co-wrote and directed the pilot, which stars Gugu Mbatha-Raw and Boris Kodjoe as married, incredibly attractive and formerly hot spies who have cooled down a bit in retirement. That is, until a CIA boss, played by Gerald McRaney, draws them back in.
It may not be the most novel concept, but the show looks like it could be great fun. And who couldn't use a bit of fun these days?
And when it comes to NBC hours, when was the last time we had fun with the network instead of at it?
CW: Stretching its age range
How old are you?
It's true that networks generally don't prosper by getting too personal, and that many of us are spiritually younger — or older — than our chronological ages. But it's also true that, in general, if you're older than 34 (and in some cases, 14), CW doesn't have much that's going to interest you.
While that certainly would seem to hold for cheerleader teen soap Hellcats, there's a better-than-even chance the mold may break with the La Femme Nikita update Nikita. The clip was intriguing, and star Maggie Q is very appealing. And that combination may be enough to help CW widen its reach.
Even to some of us who dare to be older than 34.

PSG striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic has praised his former teammate Lionel Messi during a press conference ahead of the friendly match between Sweden and Argentina.
"Leo is a fantastic player. At the individual level he is probably the best player in the world. I don't have to say it, many people agree and that's why he wins all the awards," Ibrahimovic said.
'Ibra' said he felt fine despite the physical problems that he has suffered recently, but Swedish coach Erik Hamrén, confirmed later that Zlatan will play only 45 minutes play against Argentina, because he has a game on Friday with his club.
Ibrahimovic was excited about the game, because of the quality of the opponent and the fact that the stadium will be full, and stressed that the pressure is on Argentina. "Clearly it is more important to them than to us. They have so many quality players fighting for a spot on the team," said the former Barcelona player.
'Ibra' also referred to the web of corruption and match-fixing in soccer uncovered by Europol. "I've never participated in anything like this and I hope I never will, because it has nothing to do with sports. I Don't know much other than what I read, but I hope it's not true," he said.

I've waited nearly a year since getting my backpack to review it. I wanted to make sure I lived with it before passing judgment and I'm happy to say that it has performed very solidly. It has handled nearly every task thrown at it. It doesn't handle overstuffing well, and if something is larger than the interior pocket, the flaps might not protect it against rain damage (since they aren't folded completely,) but it does what it's built for very well.
Super quality and build. Nice size which can be shrunk or expanded. This bag is built for tough weather. Love it!
I've eyed Just Porter Bags for about a year now and I finally have one! I purchased the Sable Rucksack at first and it was to big for my tiny body. I called Chris and he was kind, understanding and happy to help me get the right size that I needed. The turnaround time to get the exchanged bag to me was amazing and I received it faster then I expected. I love my street commuter and it's the perfect size for me. I needed a weather proof bag with a ton of space to pack for school and work and I got just that. The magnetic clips are an amazing feature. Plus, I got the chance to help another with this purchase. I am a happy camper and have been using my bag since it arrived!
I've had the Streeter for more than two months, and I highly recommend it. I use it to make a bus+bicycle commute into the city. Here's what I love about it:
• The variable size. When fully expanded, it can easily carry a laptop and charger, 8 books, a jacket, headphones, lunch, and a helmet. (I've done it). When you don't have that much stuff, you can use the compression straps and the straps on the front to shrink the bag down to a much smaller size. So if you have to carry only a few things, it's not too big. But if you need more capacity, it can become really big.
• The magnetic clips are super easy to fasten – you can just let the magnets get close to each other, and they will do the rest. They are also super easy to unfasten (this takes some practice because your hands are mirror images of each other, and the clips are not, but after a few intentional tries, you can commit the initially awkward motion to muscle memory). I was worried about the roll top taking time to get into, but it's actually faster than a zipper. Just unclasp the magnets and flip the top open.
• It keeps your bum dry: today I spread the top flap out over a wet bench to sit on.
• The zippered pouch outside is easy to get to.
• Looks great.
• It's comfortable, even with a heavy load.
• The bright interior makes it easy to see into.
Here are three ways the Streeter could be better:
• There is nowhere to attach a bike light on the back of the bag.
• The inside pockets are deep down in the bag and accordingly hard to get to, especially if the bag is full. They would be more useful if they weren't so deep.
• A bottle holder on the outside would be nice, although this would possibly affect the aesthetic adversely.
Summary. For the price, this is the best bag I've seen on the market. Actually, even setting aside the price and comparing this bag to its competitors, this one is the best. It's amazing that this bag is half the price of some of the competing bags, and better to bo...
I was part of the original Kickstarter campaign to fund Just Porter, which gave to me my much-loved Piko backpack. Unfortunately, as time has gone on, I've found that I needed something larger, as well as something waterproof (the Piko has held up fantastically). As soon as I saw the Streeter on this site I knew it was what I needed! So happy with it. The magnetic buckles are not just utilitarian, but cool as hell. the bag feels durable, and easily accommodates all the stuff I have to carry around, without me ever worrying about it getting too banged up or wet.
I'm going to college in the Pacific Northwest so this bag couldn't be more perfect! I love the way it fits and the magnetic straps. With the weatherproof material I always know that my stuff is safe from the rain. To make it even better you know your making a difference for someone else and their education as well. Nothing more you could want :)
* Very easy to pack
* Lots of cargo space
* Good construction
* High quality materials
* Not as easy to unpack
* Slightly heavy
* Could use a few more (maybe hidden) pockets
I am very pleased with my just porter backpack! It feels great to carry it, looks stylish, and I have had many compliments on it. This thing holds A LOT for being just a commuter pack!
I even fit my 17 inch Dell in it...which I didn't expect. Shipping was incredibly fast!
Keep up the good work!
This was a present for my son, when the shipping of the backpack was delayed the notification was a phone call from Chris! Truly that would have been enough to satisfy me, but when the backpack arrived there was a handwritten note and an additional gift. Needless to say this kind of communication and customer service is unheard of these days. Plus I looked like a rock star when my son got an additional present for his birthday. Thank you.
My first backpack has lasted from kindergarten until now (I'll be a college freshman in the fall), so I knew I wanted to invest in something that would be durable and last many years. When I began looking for a backpack for college, I didn't know where to turn. Then, I remembered a scholarship opportunity regarding a backpack. I located Just Porter and looked through their merchandise. I live in a place where it rains most of the winter and I needed a reliably waterproof backpack to keep my textbooks dry and carry my 15 inch laptop. I am so happy to have this backpack. It's incredibly well constructed and organized. I was pleased to find that the inside was orange for ease of access. I look forward to using it during my college years!
Seriously, I didn't realize how much I needed this bag until I had it. While I was concerned about the size (it is a bit bigger than what I usually prefer in a commuter bag), it is definitely a very manageable size and doesn't feel as enormous as I would have expected it to. Plus, the larger -- and expandable-- nature of it means that I can fit more gear, which is great on the occasions that I want to bring my tripod, camera, multiple lenses, and a change of clothes with me on a weekend excursion. I'm 5'6" and it is both very comfortable (distributed weight excellently) and not at all unwieldy. The magnetic clasps are a seriously awesome feature that I now think should be mandatory for all bags. And it being waterproof has already come in quite handy on multiple occasions in the few weeks I've owned the bag. Of course, the charitable nature of the company makes me feel that much better about supporting them. As some others have mentioned, the only thing I wish it had was a pocket for a water bottle, but that's certainly not a deal breaker. All in all, 10/10 - would get again. In fact, I'm planning to buy some JustPorter bags as gifts now.
A great bag. Just what I was looking for. I with there was a side or front pocket for a water bottle, but I knew going into this that I'd miss that.
The magnetic clips are quite secure and the bag rests high on the back and is very comfortable.
The inside of the bag is no frills and straight forward. The laptop pocket comes with a removable buffer incase your laptop is smaller or you are a little pairanoid.
The bag is about 20 litres, which is something that I think should be in the descriptions.
That said, I had a very quick response about how many litres this bag by emailing and quickly getting an answer back.
If I have one complaint (and I only have on complaint) it is that the front zipper pocket it very small. You can fit a cell phone, a small moleskin, a few losse small items (coins and such), but not much else which is a shame since it is a perfect spot for a small paper back or kindle.
Other than that one conplaint, excellent bag.
This backpack is extremely durable and great for commuters and travelers, especially in the city. I just got back from a 2 week backpacking trip and it was very comfortable to wear, fit everything I needed, and is still in great condition. I know I've invested in a backpack that will last for many years to come.
Best backpack I've owned. Without a doubt.
I am a huge fan of this bag. I use it regularly for carrying my laptop and photo gear. It's super durable and weatherproof, which essential for carrying gear around.
I love the padding inside and the magnetic snaps on the outside are a nice touch too. The bag is super comfortable when on your back. I also think the quality of the bag as a whole is top notch.
I am a Photographer and traveler, This bag is amazing not only will it protect my equipment inside my bag but it will also shield it from water. Also i am able to fit a lot of gear in this bag. You can't beat the quality you get with this bag.
I purchased this bag after reviewing the best the Internet had to offer. I have had it for about 4 months and have no regrets (which for me is a great sign, tend to be frugal). It's big. It feels insanely durable. Like post-apocalypse durable. The magnetic clips give it a little something special.
After purchase you get an email from the company asking your likes and such. Just so happens that the email goes directly to the founder of the company. Unreal. I have had 3 or 4 email exchanges with Chris Bahr. I was so shocked I kinda tell everybody about it. Tells me this company is going to continue to grow and become special. Something bigger going on here.
I have always been searching for that perfect bag. I am a self-proclaimed hipster and want something different than what most people have. I look for quality, design, and functionality as my three most important characteristics.
For quality, this bag has it all. The durability of this bag allows me to carry it on every flight and I haven't had a snag or rip even though I throw it around all the time. The interior orange material is also very strong.
The design and functionality for this bag is awesome too. For many other companies, they have pockets... too many pockets. I don't need a pocket for every cord I own or every accessory that I hold on me. I want the perfect amount that fits my needs: 1) Laptop Slot, 2) Sunglass Spot, 3) Charger Quick Access, 4) Folders, 5) Pens and Random Cords, 6) Quick Pocket for Phone and Wallet (Located on the front and perfect for TSA security at the airport).
There is only one downside for this bag however. Since I got married, my wife finds it to be "the perfect sized bag for travel" and takes it with her on her monthly work trips. Now I have to order a new one since it is definitely the best one I could find!
The bag is really great! I was using it daily because it's able to carry all my things - textbooks, folders, camera, laptop, charger for laptop and phone - in a very compact way. I really like how I can expand it and found myself using it when I needed to carry everything. The most I've carried in the bag is the following: a canon t5i, dell xps15z laptop, a neuro-anatomy textbook, a joby gorilla pod, a folder with about 60 pages, charger for laptop and phone. I also like the placement of the pockets because certain things would be really easy to access eg. I keep my hospital ID in the front chain pocket). I also love the waterproof ness. The other day it was raining and I didn't have an umbrella but had my camera and laptop in my bag but everything was dry on the inside.
I found myself always using it and getting a lot of compliments on it!
The bag is excellent! Amazing design, material,look, and feel!
Great Quality and design. It can store all I need everyday. But, I cant fold the backpack to look like the photo.
Absolutely love my bag and the purpose behind buying it. So durable and spacious and love the style.
Really good quality.
Great bag for everyday use. i can carry my laptop, umbrella, a few pens, wallet, keys and all my necessities. Best of all its weather proof so i don't have to worry about getting my stuff wet.
One improvement that would be good is adding on more compartments so that
my items can segregated instead of just chunking it all together.
Amazing bag, outstanding company. Chris, you are a star for what you are doing and for how you run a company. The Streeter will be in Africa next week as I continue to work to help children in rural areas receive a quality education, so your cause couldn't be more appealing to me. Photos from the field forthcoming.
Thanks for being AWESOME!

Just received my street backpack in India! perfect design to travel in the rickshaw with my computer and to go through the monsoon... with style.
Great Pack! Very cool design. I love the magnet clips. The materials are top notch and I imagine it will last a long time. Thanks so much.
It is a very good backpack. Feels durable. Hoping that it breaks in with time. Price is on the very high end, but my hope is that the pack endures to justify. Most impressed with the letter from Chris Bahr upon purchase. Simply have no category for that type of personal touch. Chris, your belief in what you are doing makes me more sold on my purchase.
I was sceptical when I first saw this bag. I have a friend that was always saying, "This is a great bag, you gotta get one." I played around with the buckles, and was mildly impressed. Then came the day I had my Chrome backpack stolen (bummer). I bit the bullet and ordered up a streeter from Just Porter. Well, to say I am impressed would be an understatement. Don't get me wrong, it's not the best thing since sliced bread, butthe construction and materials are so much better than what I've seen. At the bottom of the rung would be Herschel, then higher up would be Timbuk2, then highest would beChrome, Mission Workshop and Just Porter in this space. AND, I GOT A THANK YOUNOTE FROM THE OWNER! Yeah, these guys are that good.
This never happens. I was going through the TSA line in the airport. I get stopped for a random check. TSA guy starts playing with the buckles on the flap like a kid. Hahaha :-) Looks at the bag ask if I like it. I tell him, "Yeah, great bag." He asks me the price, I tell hi.. "Is it worth it?" he says. "Yeah, for sure." I say. He tells me, "I'm going to get one of those." So, Just Porter, if you got an order from a TSA guy, you owe me. HAHAHA Great backpack.
To me, I have always tried to do a lot of research and make good decisions on my purchases. I've been happy with owning this backpack. I think it's a great commuter backpack since it can hold a bit more. But, I think a huge positive is how easily this bag cleans up. It's easy to clean with some papertowel and water for a quick once down. It's a comfortable backpack and the straps are perfectly wide. I live in the Seattle area, and I love that the bag keeps rain out. Highly recommended.
Great bag with great customer service. I needed a solid commuter backpack and I reached out to support, and they were really helpful with their advice and questions to make sure I got the best backpack for me.
As a street photographer it is really important to have a comfortable backpack to walk around and this one is perfect! Highly recommended_ !
Okay, first this a really high quality backpack that is durableand has a lot ofspace for the outside footprint. This backpack is great as a overnight bag. But, I've taken ithiking and used it as a commuting backpack.The inside has a lot spaceplus a padded laptop sleeve that is reall well made. The inside is lined with orange fabric really easy to see what is inside. The backpack itself looks stylish because of the clean lines.It's extremely comfortable. The shoulder-straps and extra padding help the backpack to sit comfortable on my shoulders.
Any journey requires a great bag and Just Porter has the concept of a great bag down pat! Not only is this bag stylish, but it's built extremely well! Upon taking the bag out of the box i was surprised at how strong the material felt, i won't have to worry about any tears in the bag or anything inside getting damaged. The best part of the bag is the padding on the back and those magnetic straps! The padding keeps your back comfortable, even if you have some bulky items in the bag (I use mine as a makeshift camera bag) and the straps just have a super satisfying click when locking. All in all, if you're looking for a stylish bag with lots of protection and is built to last, look no further!
Great bag. I absolutely love it. Love the magnetic buckles for the top cover. Great padding for my laptop, and it cleans up well.100% recommend it.
Great backpack and the attention to detail and construction are awesome. Con: the laptop area is inside which takes up space, but on the upside the laptop area is padded so you know it's inside, dry and protected from shocks and bumps.
Bag stays up high on my back which I like. Visually a striking bag, and the inside is well designed. I like that it has an appropriate amount of pockets. Most backpack companies just put in pockets just to make them. All that does is help me lose my stuff. Rather than "WHERE IS X?" I just look in the main compartment or one of the two other pockets. So, it is a more efficient bag than most. I'm a tele-commuter so this bag acts like a mobile office for me. It holds my Macbook 15" an ancillary tablet , chargers, cords, etc... When I do go to the office, it's one of the smarter looking bags. For the price, the bag is a fair value. Not cheap, but not super crazy designer expensive.
Insanely fast shipping time! was intimated at first by the size for an everyday bag, but the buckles on the side allowed me to make the bag more compact and then bigger when need be. Super satisfied with my purchase, they even sent a letter with the bag. Best commuet backpack and best company. I would purchase another but I can tell this is gonna last me a while!
Excellent quality commuter backpack. Love the fabric.Cute design and a great paddedlaptop sleeve on the inside. Would buy again!
Two things. 1) This bag handles my older 17 inch Macbook Pro. 2) Really happy with the construction. This bag is one of my favorite backpacks.
Great back pack! 5/5
I like the bag a lot and it gets lots of compliments. I wish the zippered pocket on the front went all the way across instead of only 3/4. the inside could use more pockets and a you could seperate or divide the computer pocket into two to hold files or paperwork.
Best backpack I've ever owned. Fits great on my back,looks good and it's a super durable backpack.I think it's better than my sanction from Mission workshop. JMHO
This is a great bag for peoplewho commute. It's a perfect city backpack because it's a perfect size. It'sjust right, and has room to pack essentials for work. I think this would be a great college backpack too. This backpack has the best padded laptop sleeveI have seen. For a laptop backpack, I know that my computer is going to be safe. That is rare. I keep my ipadunder the flap area, and I love that my stuff is safe from rain. It's a great backpack.
I found this backpack after searching for weeks. I was looking for a good commuter backpack that could 1) deal withNYC weather (especially winter) 2) Had an area that was well padded to keep my laptop safe 3) Could carry my stuff for DJing. After comparing this bag, I could see and feel the difference between a Just Porter bag and any of the rest. The stitching was tight and it was competing with designer backpacks that were in the $300 range. Great DJ backpack.
I use itfor work. It holds my laptop, lunch and work papers. Really satisfied. But, the most surprising thing is that this is a buy one give one backpack company. Rarely does a company make a great product and have a great social mission. On top of that, I received a hand written thank you note from the owner Chris Bahr. That turned me into a lifetime fan, and I get a lifetime warranty. Sign me up.Great Job Just Porter!
Notebook sleeve is well padded. Great commuter backpack that secures well with the chest strap. Love the magnetic buckles. Would like a exterior water bottle pocket, but I don't miss it a ton. Really like the white zipper on the flap for my phone and charger cord. This bag checks a lot of boxes and is better looking than in person 9/10
This backpack fits all my camera gear, gadgets, laptop, and school supplies. Looks better in person (I bought the black). Love the flap that covers the top. Works well as a bike backpack, the chest strap hold firm. Good bag.
I'm a teacher and I wanted one of these for school year. Honestly,One of the best backpacks I've ever owned! Upgraded from a Chrome messeneger bag, this one fit every need I have and it is very comfortable. More comfortable than a messenger bag.Plenty of storage as well. I love the compression straps on the sides and the padded laptop area in the backpack.
This bag is made for more of an urban / city person. Get this if you need a bike backpack or you're a commuter or like a rucksack style bag. Good quality, but I like my Herschel.
I use it everyday for communiting and I love it. Best bag I've seen for the price.
I bought a streeter and it fits my 17" macbook pro. Yep, nobody can hold those anymore. Well constructed with nice details inside. On par with other commuter bags, but this bag has a little more bang for your buck. Unlike most bags that just weld together seams, this bag is stitched, and has gray ribbon. It's a detail thing. But, if they're paying attention to the inside, you know they're paying attention to the rest of the details. I'll update this in 6 months.
Great biking backpack,
I thought this bag was smaller like a Fjallraven Kanken.
This backpack is awesome and the fit is great. The shoulder straps aremore comfortableand flexiblethan the standard straps, but it takes about 3 weeks for breaking them in. The waterproof material on the outside of the backpack is reallynice. When I am commuting on my bike and it starts to rain, I know everything will stay dry. Love the magnetic clips for the flap and my chest strap. Very good EDC bag. I carry a 15" Macbook, a couple of books, notesbooks, pens, pencils and some food. The usual college stuff. This bag gives me more room to carry a light coat or a sweatshirt if I need it. I keep my cord under the flap. Really well made bag.
I bought this backpack after looking at Mission Workshop and a Timbuk2. I wanted to find a waterproof bag that would carry my laptop and gear. The streeter is a great choice as compared to other commuter backpack and bags like ortlieb or timbuk2 since the detail seems like so much more. It's cheaper than a Mission which is a plus. Good bag for mass transit people or people that need a bike backpack doing their commute.
Finally, a backpack that is well made and is utlitarian. I'm really happy with this backpack since all of the others on the market tend to be the same flavor of Vanilla. I wanted a bag that had durable fabric, was waterproof, and would be worth the price. Just Porter delivered on all fronts. I was surprised that this company could really make something different, yet make something really high quality. Love the buckles and the layout of the bag. Nice organization system inside. Really great commuter backpack. You can tell that it was made a bicycling backpack. Exceptional.
This is a really well-made commuter backpack. The fabric, the design are top notch. I looked at Chrome backpacks and messenger bags, Timbuk2. They're good bags, but Just Porter's Streeter is really a great backpack. I like the waterproof fabric on the outside, but the fabric on the inside sets the bag apart. It's a level of detail that I haven't seen in another bag. I really like this bag and look forward to seeing what Just Porter does in the future.
I was really concernedabout throwingmy money awayon a really expensive bag, since I didn'tknow the brand or what to expect. So, what did I learn? Honestly I'm very happy with what I received. For someone who commutes and has owned several commuter backpacks, I actually shocked that they got it right. It's very durable, and I love the way that the Streeter fits and contours to my back. I love the padding channel in the back. It makes it more comfortable while riding my bike on a hot day. Plus: the bag can actually get pretty small when you use the compression straps. Quality wise it is on the same level as other commuter baglike Mission Workshop and Chrome Industries. Actually the streeter's laptop area is 100x better than those bags. Negatives: I wish there were an easy place to put my light. I think they should add a piece of fabric on the flap. I just attach it to the flap strap and call it a day. If it had that, the bag would be a 5.
Nice bike backpack, well made. It can hold every thing I need. I've owened several commuter backpacks, and this is really well made.
I am really happy with my Streeter. I got a green one, I think the color is off on the website since it shows a more brown/green. It's more of an olive color in real life. Cool backpack!
Slim profile for a commuter backpack. I am able to fit my Dell15.6" laptop which is nice since it's a little wider than normal. Has a good quality feel to it all around. Buy it if you need a bag with a padded laptop area. They did a nice job with the padding.
Awesome bag if you're a commuter. Looks really nice too.

> need for? I'm starting to feel like I didn't think > my build > process through properly. In the beginning you said you had compile, test, and package tasks. Did you mean targets? A more "Ant-normal" way to do these things would probably involve each of these being separate targets, with dependencies. Another target could be a dependency and contain an uptodate task that would set a property if the target files are up to date. Assuming public classes where the class filename can be easily mapped from the java filename, this should give you roughly the equivalent of "what will javac compile?". Then your test and package targets could be unless="src.uptodate" -Matt __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Protect your identity with Yahoo!

Wedding Bells
July, 1972
Emily is wearing a beautiful white lace over white silk
wedding gown. She walks down a rose petal path with her
father to the climbing rose archway of the arbour. David
waits for her with Joanie who is her maid of honour. Kyle
is David's best man. They repeat their vows in front of
their minister.
With this ring, I thee wed... etc.
David slips the ring on Emily's finger.

Emily slips the ring on David's finger.
With the power invested in me by

At the end of the aisle, the officers put down their swords,

Mark Larson is sitting in a wheelchair with Estelle seated

MSU College of Human Medicine, East Lansing, MI
Review the patterns of implementation of a sepsis bundle and identify the characteristics associated with incomplete implementation.
Data was prospectively obtained from MediQual databases as well as a retrospective chart review of a sample of patients with a principle discharge diagnosis of severe sepsis or septic shock (IDC-9 78522, 99592). The mortality rate was compared before (2004–2005) and after (2007–2008) implementation of a sepsis bundle. Implementation of the sepsis bundle was assessed by bundle orders used, >20ml/kg fluid bolus in first hour, serum lactate measured, central line placed, volume status after 6 hours, ScvO2 measured, timely first dose of antibiotics, assessment for drotrecogin alfa (activated), and lung protective ventilation.
There was a decrease in the mortality rate (69/155) 44.5% (2004–2005) to (202/540) 37.4% (2007–2008) which was not statistically significant (p=0.06). Thirty-two charts were reviewed. Discharge diagnosis was severe sepsis (62%) and septic shock (38%). Septic sources: lung (53%), urine (38%), GI (9%), wound (3%) and other (9%). Bundle order forms were used in 28%. A fluid bolus of >20ml/kg in the first hour was given in 28%. A serum lactate was not done in 50%. Central line was placed in 63%. Central venous pressures were not >8 mmHg 6 hours after identification in 22%. ScvO2 was not checked in 88%. The first antibiotic dose was given within the first 4 hours in 64% and >7 hours after identification of sepsis in 35%. 87% of the patients were not assessed for use of drotrecogin alfa (activated). Lung protective ventilation was not used in 22% identified with ALI/ARDS. There was lack of implementation of all sepsis bundle orders in 84%. Delays in identifying sepsis occurred in 64%.
Variability in the degree of implementation of bundle practices is the most significant barrier. Delays in diagnosis and implementation, in particular with antibiotic use and resuscitation, also impact overall care quality.
Sepsis bundle implementation that fails to improve outcome may be related to delays and implementation of all bundle components.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I made a complaint of 09/13/13 to APS. I told them my mother had dementia, was being neglected, needed to be checked on right away, gave all information to them including Doctor #'s, etc. The next I heard from them was on 09/23/13 saying they tried to contact my Mom, but she would not open the door for them. I believe the MA law states if a person is in danger, and a report is made, follow-up must occur within 3 days. They waited 10 days to contact me. It just so happens that at the same time they were calling me, my Mother left her apt to go to the store and fell. She is now in a Coma with brain damage. If they just did what they promised me they would do, I know she would be o.k. today.
I'm a little uncertain as to what exactly you would have had them do when your mother wouldn't let them in? They can't break down the door and cart her off based upon a report alone. Had you seen an attorney about filing a petition to be appointed her guardian/conservator? If you really thing you have a cause of action against APS you need to see a personal injury attorney ASAP as this would fall under a governmental claims act which typically has hoops you need to jump through and a short time frame in which your action has to be filed.

RICHMOND – Eastern Kentucky University men's golf head coach Pat Stephens won the 2016 Kentucky Senior Open on Wednesday at Persimmon Ridge in Louisville.
Stephens was tied for the lead after Tuesday's first round score of 69. A final round 75 was good enough to win by one shot over three players tied for second. Stephens finished with a 36-hole total of 144.
The 2016-17 season will be Stephens' 20th at the helm of the Eastern Kentucky men's golf program, having led the Colonels to unprecedented success in that time.
EKU made it three conference titles in 10 seasons when the team captured the 2015 Ohio Valley Conference Championship. The Colonels moved from sixth to first on day two and never trailed again as Stephens was presented with his third OVC Coach of the Year Award.
This past season, Stephens had the Colonels in contention on the final day for a second straight conference championship.

A gorgeous girl that doesn't know how incredibly special she is, due to failed past relationships and douchebag boyfriends. Shy by nature, but the life of the party when she gets to know you!! Usually a white girl, but common among Hispanic women as well! She is tough from life's experiences, but has a tender heart that is a valuable prize to be won!! To hold her, makes you the richest man on earth!! Do not attempt to straighten her out, it's the dents and dings that have made her into this work of pure perfection!!
She's not waisting her time on a guy like me, she's a damaged canned good, she's way out of my league!

Fulham out of drop zone with win over 10-man West Ham
LONDON (AP) - Goals from Steve Sidwell and Dimitar Berbatov helped Fulham secure a 2-1 win over 10-man West Ham on Wednesday that lifted the London club out of the relegation zone.
The Hammers had opened the scoring through Mohamed Diame's first-half goal before Sidwell put the teams level from a corner.
West Ham captain Kevin Nolan was sent off just before the interval after kicking Fernando Amorebieta, and Berbatov scored the winner in the 66th with a shot into the corner from Scott Parker's assist.
U.S. captain Clint Dempsey was not on the matchday roster for Fulham in the first game he was eligible to play on his two-month loan from the Seattle Sounders.

I Also Miss
I miss the tropics.
I miss falling asleep to thunderstorms.
I miss shivering when the thermostat read 20.
I miss ducking into alcoves to avoid being soaked.
I miss steaming lunches eaten in the open air.
I miss the condensation from my juice dripping down my arm.
I miss fretting over which shorts to wear.
I miss missing pants, now that I have them.
But mostly I miss the zoo.

There always one isn't there. The Camo & Emblem hanv't been released yet. Nobody other than Devs know what they are. If they release them when they update everybody to Founder status then I will post a screen cap of them.
Maybe you should search around before you blindly post and instead of being that guy why dont you help out your fellow community and have a look around to see if you could find them?? Because I did and couldn't find any pictures of the Camo or Emblem.
If I was willing to lend a guess I would probally say the Emblem will be the green Founder skull & probally a dark greenish Snake or Hex camo maybe...?

I was thinking this also. Guess we wont know till the 14th. No harm in trying though when it comes to it.

Shoot-out heartbreak for Cherries
The Cherries were knocked of the Johnstone's Paint Trophy by Portsmouth after a penalty shoot-out.
Luke Rodgers, Ashley Harris, Liam Walker and Brian Howard made no mistake 12 yards but substitute Marc Pugh missed the decisive strike in front of the travelling contingent.
Shaun MacDonald had scored either side of Rodgers' equaliser, before Howard sent the game to spot kicks with a spectacular strike midway through the second half.
The Cherries looked the most likely side to progress through to the second round in a frantic final 20 minutes at Fratton Park, but were unable to find a way past Pompey 'keeper Mikkel Andersen.
Paul Groves made five changes to his starting line-up, handing starts to Wes Fogden, Richard Hughes and Josh McQuoid starts after they appeared from the bench in the defeat to Sheffield United on Saturday.
MacDonald got the Cherries off to a dream start when he nodded Simon Francis' cross beyond the outstretched Mikkel Andersen after just four minutes.
Andersen got a fingertip to the header but couldn't prevent MacDonald opening his account for the season.
Moments later, Steve Cook burst forward from left back and sent a powerful long range effort just wide after skipping away from his marker as the Cherries made an impressive start to the contest.
MacDonald and Francis almost combined again to extend the lead as the full-back picked out the Welshman with another pin point cross, but he was unable to force his header goalwards.
But it wasn't all one way traffic, and Shwan Jalal had to be alert to beat away Howard's drive from 25 yards.
Michael Apleton's side began to enjoy some possession with half an hour gone, and Rodgers was unlucky to see his shot roll wide after twisting and turning away from a couple of defenders on the edge of the box.
The Cherries made a strong finish to the end to the first half, and McQuoid played in Fogden with an incisive through the ball to send the tireless midfielder one on one with Andersen in front of the Fratton End.
The former Havant & Waterlooville man appeared to be in two minds whether to go for goal or set-up Grabban for a simple tap-in, and sidefooted past the Pompey 'keeper's right hand post.
Just as the visitors had seemed to have taken control of the game, Rodger's nipped in front of Tommy Elphick to guide Mustapha Dumbuya's low cross into the net just on the stroke of half-time.
Both Fogden and McQuoid went close to putting the Cherries back in front early in the second period. First, Fogden saw his low shot saved well by Andersen before McQuoid narrowly missed out on converting Grabban's cross.
But their pressure paid dividends as MacDonald smashed the ball into the back of the net from 20 yards after he was teed up Richard Hughes.
It took an unbelievable goal-line clearance from Kevin Long to stop Fogden capitalising on the Cherries dominance and heading into an empty net, as he followed up Grabban's shot.
But they were made to pay for allowing Howard too much space less than a minute after Fogden been denied by the post.
The Pompey captain picked his spot from 25 yards out to round off a swift counter attack and put the hosts back on level terms.
The leveller sparked the game into life and both teams had chance to win the tie in a frantic final 20 minutes.
MacDonald looked like he had done all the hard work after bringing down Richard Hughes' raking pass with a sublime touch before putting his shot wide.
Substitute Lee Barnard was set to silence the home fans once again, as he had done on the opening day of the season as he collected a loose ball inside the area, only to have his goalbound effort deflected behind for a corner.
Marc Pugh was sent on as Groves' second replacement as they looked for a late winner but it would take penalties to separate the two teams after a compelling 90 minutes.
Cherries: Jalal, Francis, Elphick, Addison, Cook, Fogden (Pugh, 85), Arter, MacDonald, Hughes (Partington, 88), McQuoid (Barnard, 68), Grabban.

text: I have just begun using the Logo Creator software. I can't say that I'm all that savy with graphics, but love the ease of using this program. I do have questions that some of you "veterans" can probably guide me through: 1. I created on logo to use, but when we went to create a plastic banner using this logo, Kinkos ended up creating the logo with a different looking font. Apparently they didn't have the particular font I chose to use in the logo. How do I "embed" the fonts I choose in a logo, so that any medium (print, online, etc.) will look the same? 2. Hexastar, I have seen some very nice logos created by you, in some the threads that I have read through. I particularly like the clipart you choose to use. It's not juvenal, like some of the images I have seen. Would you mind giving me some of the online sources that you use for your clip art? Any other sources that anybody has that can provide some good graphics images & clip art? 3. Considering that I am pretty much a graphics idiot (for now), are there simple tips that I can follow that will make my "creations" more easily useable in my various projects? Looking forward to some responses from you well-seasoned experts.
