What People are Saying about Dunshee's
From the Press:
"Dunshee's B&B and Casita is the quintessential ToCa [Top of Canyon] oasis, with beamed ceilings and local art."
Sunset magazine
"Those seeking the ultimate retreat can't beat Dunshee's."
Travel and Leisure
"This inn is reached by a dirt alley. Once you find it, you'll feel like you're tucked away in some forgotten, romantic corner of old Santa Fe. The amiable artist/owner Susan Dunshee is a treasure trove of interesting history about Santa Fe's art community and this historic neighborhood."
The Santa Fean
"Santa Fe's most intimate accommodations, however, are found at Dunshee's. There are only two available units at this exquisite little inn and the proprietor often only books one party at a time so that her guests receive undivided attention. Fresh flowers adorn every room and the kitchen is always stocked with homemade brownies or cookies. "
The Adventure Guide to New Mexico
"This pretty B&B, in the quiet Eastside area just a mile from the Plaza, is so romantic that its patio has been used for weddings...All in all this place is a good buy for Santa Fe."
Fodor's Santa Fe, Taos, Albuquerque
From the Guestbook:
"Thank you for making our stay in Santa Fe so memorable! You made it such a wonderful home-away-from-home for us that it was hard to leave. You are a great hostess--and your place is at the top of our favorite B&B's list. We miss the dogs and your cookies, too!"
"Frank and I loved staying in the casita. As Frank said "She's really an artist." The entire place, down to the placement of the vases and the beautiful and delicious fruit salads, reflected your care and creativity. We would recommend it in a heartbeat."
"The breakfasts were the best I have ever had, anywhere...every single one of them. I dream about those lacy pancakes and the fluffy, light-as-a-cloud souffle in particular. But then there was the French toast and the eggs....the fruit, the muffins... OH MY, what a plenitude of gustatory delights! And the conversation was the perfect condiment to go with the delicious flavors."
"My favorite part of my short Santa Fe visit has been staying here. I began to relax and regain my footing, started asking myself some old and new questions and was truly inspired."
"You are definitely the "hostess with the mostest." Santa Fe is a beautiful city with great restaurants and fun galleries. But your home was the very best. I don't know when we have had a more enjoyable Sunday--napping, quilting, reading the paper complete with a gorgeous fire."
"Thank you so much for making our first visit to Santa Fe the best vacation we've ever had. We felt at home from the moment we arrived. And each morning we waited eagerly to learn what culinary magic you had created for our breakfasts. Not only was everything delicious, everything was beautiful."
"I live for your granola."
"Your home is soothing in its comforts and helped to rejuvenate both of us. It's amazing how a B&B can heal the day-to-day things that fester over time."
"Courtney and I wanted to thank you for a perfect stay at your lovely home. Seriously, we have stayed everywhere and experienced everything, but we have never felt so welcome and relaxed as we did with you. Thank you for everything."

Being 22 years of age Botox never crossed my mind until one of my older girlfriends through a Botox party at a local docs office. I reluctantly joined the group and they convinced me to get a little in the forehead and middle of the brow. I was thrilled with the results.
I didn't even know I had wrinkles until I did the botox but the best part about it is that I am training my muscles at an early age for preventative wrinkles in the future. I urge young girls to start getting in on the preventative fillers and injections- less work and less money in the future if you do.
I would rather do minor touch ups now then a costly face lift in my 40s. I would recommend Botox to everyone.

SEAN Dyche celebrated a winning start to life as Burnley boss with a rare home win over Wolves.
The visit of Stale Solbakken's men offered a tough debut for the former Watford manager, who last week succeeded Eddie Howe at the Turf Moor helm.
Burnley had previously won only twice in 22 home league meetings with Wolves – a run stretching back to 1964.
But the Clarets put earlier encounters behind them with goals from Martin Paterson and top scorer Charlie Austin in either half, while the defence held firm under second half pressure to secure back-to-back home clean sheets.
Paterson put the home side on the front foot in the 17th minute with his first of the season after running onto Ben Mee's excellent ball and tucking it through the advancing Carl Ikeme.
There was little else of note in a tepid first half.
But the game sparked into life when Charlie Austin did, with the striker adding his 19th goal of the campaign so far with the simplest of headers from Ross Wallace's corner.
Wolves carried more of a threat in the second half, but Burnley, with David Edgar and Brian Stock providing an additional midfield buffer to the back four, contributed to keeping Wolves at bay.

NEW YORK (May. 22)
More housing and jobs for immigrants who are now entering Israel at a rate comparable to the mass influx of the early days of statehood are now the two top priority needs in Israel, Dr. Joseph J. Schwartz, vice-president of the Israel Bond Organization, reported here today following his return from Jerusalem.
Reporting on his talks with Prime Minister Ben-Gurion, Finance Minister Eshkol, Foreign Minister Meir and others, Dr. Schwartz said that all government leaders underlined the central importance of Israel bonds in meeting these two priority needs. "Although the country has not yet completely adjusted to the new economic policy established several months ago, " he asserted, "there is a gratifying awareness of the need for self-denial and economic controls in order to promote the orderly settlement of large-scale immigration."
As an example of the sharp increase in housing needs, he cited the fact that the Government of Israel will require an additional amount of $33,333,000 to finance the construction of 10,000 housing units, over and above the 20,000 originally planned for this year.
Brigadier General Ezer Weizmann, Commander-in Chief of the Israel Air Force, arrived today at Idlewild Airport for a one-month tour of major American cities in behalf of the Israel bond drive. General Weizmann's first meeting of his current visit in behalf of the Israel bond effort will be a dinner in Miami on May 27 which will inaugurate the 1962 campaign in that community. Among other cities where he will address Israel bond meetings are New York, Washington, Houston, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Chicago and Cleveland.

Two people suffered minor injuries after their car slammed into a moose Thursday night on Highway 417, near Boundary Road, according to Ottawa Fire Services.
Firefighters arrived on scene shortly after 9:45 p.m. and found one vehicle off the road in trees and a moose on the side of the road. Early reports suggested the driver may have been trapped, but did not need to be extricated from the vehicle.
The crash was believed to be in the eastbound lanes, just east of Boundary Road.

Get Thin or Die Trying
In outrage, my mum showed me an article in UK newspaper The Evening Standard and told me to read it. More or less, after finishing the article, I was in shock. I couldn't believe what I had just read. What was it about, you ask? Well, if you have been alive on Twitter over the past week, the online universe has blown up over one certain former Big Brother contestant, Kenneth Tong.
Young, impressionable girls already have enough pressure on them as it is when it comes to their bodies and being deemed 'beautiful' and 'attractive' in the eyes of society, but when Kenneth Tong, with his idea of introducing a 'Size-Zero Pill,' fires attack after attack, claiming that girls who aren't a size-zero are "disgusting," and, "to be skinny is to be perfect and to be fat is unacceptable," he just takes the whole body issue onto another level. Oh, what a lovely man this Kenneth Tong is, hey?
Thankfully, a lot of people haven't stood for this Pro-Anorexia campaign. Celebs like Rihanna and Lily Allen hopped on board the hate-train, and even though I am not one to follow the lives of celebrities, I was glad to hear that two well-known figure-heads and role models for young girls are voicing their opinion on such a universal topic, something that affects so many that one in four people diagnosed with anorexia die. Of course, Kenneth Tong didn't know that, did he? About anorexia being a mental illness, and all.
Getting past my disgust for this point of view, what is laughable, and pathetic, about the whole situation is that after having an onslaught of hate, begging for The Evening Standard not to publish the interview that was conducted with him, Kenneth came out claiming via Twitter that it was all a hoax after having a conversation with his friend, saying it was possible to become a trending topic worldwide on the social networking site, and voila, the Size-Zero Pill was born.
Whether or not Kenneth's 'message' was in fact a harmless little joke – which obviously, it wasn't, and it definitely wasn't harmless – isn't the case. Everyone has a view of themselves, through lack of confidence, that we can't live up to society's expectations, where beauty isn't in the eye of the beholder but in what you wear, how you looks, what size you are, and how close you are to looking perfect like those models in magazines.The age in your life when you are the least confident and try to find the niche where you fit in, to be accepted, is when you are a teenager, and teenage girls have seen this message Kenneth has broadcasted to the world, probably wondering if there is something wrong with their own body.
What Kenneth Tong has done is revitalise that fear teenagers have of themselves, in particular girls, that whatever we look like, whatever size we are, we just can't be accepted by society until we change ourselves to fit into the ideals of what is apparently beautiful.
So thanks for that Kenneth, you've done a bang-up job instilling, yet again, an 'Am I pretty enough?' mind-set into the world.

Wow. What a royal asshole. It's not enough creating diet pills that are unregulated and possibly dangerous, but he's also saying that girls who are not size 0 are disgusting? Looking at the article, it's clear he has a messed up, I'm-rich-so-I-can-do anything mindset. Unfortunately, nobody taught him the proper way to act. The stupidity and sexism present in his foolish idea should not be acceptable in society.
Niamh @ at 9:28 pm, January 20th, 2011
I think the best way to deal with people like this is to ignore them while addressing the problem in society at large that breeds them.
Natalia @ at 6:57 pm, January 21st, 2011
Fucking asshole. If he's so pro-anorexia, I say we lock him in a closet for weeks and let him starve. See how he likes it.

Death Mountain Crater
|Death Mountain Crater
|Pieces of Heart ×2
Bolero of Fire
Gold Skulltula ×2
Enhanced Magic Meter
Appearing only in Ocarina of Time, Death Mountain Crater is the volcanic center of Death Mountain.
It can be accessed from the top of Death Mountain or through an ancient Goron pathway that leads from the chief's room in Goron City. The crater is the location of the Fire Temple and home to the ancient dragon Volvagia.
The heat of the crater is too intense to be in for very long unless the Goron Tunic is being worn.[1] Without this tunic, Link only has a limited amount of time to stay in the crater, otherwise he will burst into flames and die as soon as the timer runs out.[2] The amount of time Link can remain in the crater is dependent upon how many Heart Containers Link possesses.
After Link receives the Goron Tunic from Darunia's son and enters Death Mountain Crater for the first time, Sheik will appear in front of him and teach Link the Bolero of Fire, which allows him to immediately transport back to the crater at any given time. The Bolero of Fire is needed to access the middle portion of the crater as young Link.
The Great Fairy of Wisdom also resides in the Great Fairy's Fountain on the western portion of the volcanic area, but its entrance is blocked by giant boulders that can only be removed with the Megaton Hammer. Once Link enters the fountain, he meets the Great Fairy within it who doubles his Magic Meter.
- Death Mountain Crater and the Volcano Summit seem to be very closely related or are possibly the same location, leading many to theorize that Eldin Volcano becomes Death Mountain in the future.
- Both the Death Mountain Crater and Volcano Summit damage Link due to extreme heat. The only way the young hero can prevent this is by receiving an item, in this case the Goron Tunic and the Fireshield Earrings respectively.

Chelsea offer £20m to bring back Benfica's Matic
Chelsea Make £20 Million Bid To Bring Back Former Midfielder
In 2011 Chelsea acquired David Luiz from Portuguese club Benfica thanks to a cash plus player deal that saw Serbian midfielder Namanja Matic.
The 25-year-old midfielder may of at the time have been considered surplus to requirements but it is believed by Sky Sports that Jose Mourinho thinks the former Blue is the man to strengthen the midfield for the future.
With Benfica having crashed out of the UEFA Champions League, their financial outlook for the remainder of the season is not very positive and they are believed on the verge of being forced to sell Matic to maintain financial integrity for the remainder of their campaign.
Chelsea are reported to have made an offer of £20 million to see the player return to England and take a more prominent role at the club that once saw him as having no future in their ranks.
Matic was named last season's Primeira Liga Player of the Year and has thrived under the spotlight in Portugal, but is he the right player for Chelsea to bring in this January?
Only time will tell as the transfer window is looking to kick into full swing this week as the clock is ticking to get business done and dusted and return to the fight for silverware in the run-in.

Jan Brewer (R-AZ) appeared Monday night on CNN's John King, USA to discuss her recent veto of a "birther bill" -- a piece of legislation requiring candidates for public office to submit proof of U.S. citizenship to the state Secretary of State before they could appear on the state's ballot. And despite the issue's appeal to the GOP's Tea Party base, Brewer had nothing good to say about the bill.

Health Care Reform Resources
In response to member requests, we have pulled together in one convenient location, ACA compliance resources and calculators to help employers better understand the ACA.
The calculators can be found here.
NBCH has compiled two lists of the Affordable Care Act's implications for employers.
These documents have been updated to reflect the recently announced one-year delay in the employer shared responsibility provisions.
The second resource captures all implications - financial and otherwise - that will impact employers. The document has been posted here for your reference.
The 2012 elections were closely watched because of their potential impact on health reform and Affordable Care Act implementation. With the balance of power remaining unchanged at the federal level, work that had been placed on hold will continue as we work to prepare for 2014, which is a critical year for many major ACA programs. NBCH has prepared talking points describing the impacts on budget sequestration and ACA implementation moving forward.
On June 12, the Alliance for Health Reform held a briefing titled "Health Care Costs - What Can Be Done?" Though there is still disagreement about the extent to which various cost drivers contribute to the troubling trajectory of health care spending in the United States, there are success stories. This briefing took a look at some of the innovative strategies in both the public and private sectors that have bent the cost curve downwards and some that may hold promise for lowering the rate of growth of national health care spending. The briefing also featured Dr. Paul Ginsburg presenting a paper that was commissioned especially for this series. The paper examines a range of policy strategies that might promote changes in health financing and delivery that would encourage higher quality and more efficient care delivery.
An archived webcast, a podcast, and supporting materials for the briefing can be found by visiting the link above.
On Monday, March 12, HHS released the final rule for health insurance exchanges, which includes specifics about state functions and responsibilities. The final rule outlined the minimum standards states must meet in establishing and operating their exchanges, such as individual and employer eligibility for enrollment. The rule also outlines minimum standards that health insurers must meet to participate in an exchange and the standards employers must meet to participate in the exchange. The regulation aims to offer states "substantial discretion" in both the design and operation of their exchanges, according to the rule.
HHS fact sheet: view here
Final rule: view here
The final rule incorporated provisions of two separate but related proposed regulations issued last year, on July 15 and Aug. 17. It included more flexibility than the earlier draft rules for states to determine eligibility for their exchange; provided greater detail on the role of agents and brokers in the exchange; and specified more privacy protections for enrollee data. The rule also codified a "conditional approval" status for states that have made significant progress in creating an exchange but are expected to miss the January 2014 start date. The regulation's goal of offering states "substantial discretion" in both the design and operation of their exchanges drew praise from insurers. Read more here.

Many observers are concerned cost sharing could be undermined if small employers with relatively healthy insured populations stay out of the Small Business Health Options Program (SHOP) in the health insurance exchanges. Firms with sicker employees would face increasing premiums because there wouldn't be enough healthy workers to balance the risk, HealthLeaders Media reports. According to the National Federation of Independent Businesses' Kevin Kuhlman, there so many unknowns in the ACA, including essential benefits, that small businesses are likely to try to stay away, using grandfathered health plans or self-insurance instead. Read more here.
While it's clear that the health insurance exchange regulation will have a big impact on insurers and consumers, less obvious is that it's a big deal to hospitals as well. In large part, that's because of the requirements that health plans must meet for contracting with providers. Read more here.
Brokers and other third-party administrators will be allowed to direct people to state insurance exchanges and check to see if they are qualified for tax credits under long-awaited final regulations released on Monday. That means a possible new business model for insurance brokers or any other companies looking to set up an access point to the state insurance exchanges — something that concerns some consumer groups.

One of the ads garnering some controversy during the Super Bowl was from Coca-Cola, which featured the song "America the Beautiful" performed in different languages. Many people on the Interweb felt that the song should only be sung in English (or, for the more radical out there, 'Murican').
Regardless of your position on the matter, I think we can all agree that it's probably good that we didn't have to suffer this version of the ad, in which we get to hear the song in Klingon, Dothraki (from Game of Thrones) or those Charlie Brown adult voices. This parody courtesy of the GarlicJacksonComedy YouTube channel.
I'm just glad they didn't include Ewok, because then THAT SONG would be stuck in my head all day.

Ask Health Experts and Get Answers to Your Health Question ASAP
Hi, The possible causes are:
Acid reflux : this seems the most likely cause. Such pains can be associated. Chronic cholecystitis : the pain is usually associated with indigestion, flatulence and often with fever and vomiting. A pain from the gall bladder may be aggravated by deep breathing or sneezing as the diaphragm touches the gall bladder.
Pleurisy : An inflammation of the lining of the lungs. This is a likely cause but it is usually associated with some sort of cough and often sputum. Without this, it is less likely.
Costochondritis: If the pain is aggravated by touching, it could be due to costochondritis, an inflammation of the cartilage joint of the ribs.
Esophageal spasm: may be associated with difficulty in swallowing and heart burn. link
Cardiac causes: Cardiac causes of such pain could be due to ischemia (due to blockages - including both stable and unstable angina and acute heart attack and coronary artery spasm), pericarditis (inflammation of the sack around the heart), myocarditis (inflammation of the heart)
Psychological causes of chest pain are common and include panic attacks, anxiety, stress and mental duress
For you, acid reflux is the most likely cause. You should try initially with some antacid, like Mucaine gel (OTC) 2 tsf three times daily and Tab. Zantac 150 mg once daily assuming it to be acid reflux. If this does not help and pain continues more than 5 days, then you have to go for a medical check up. Link1 Link2

President Linwood H. Rose
A new academic
year is an appropriate time to look back at some of the high points
of JMU's 2001-02 academic year. I've briefly described here
what we found in our look back. My more in-depth review of the year
is available at http://www.jmu.edu/president/sept2002_letter.html.
Recognitions Continue:
Independent studies again cited JMU repeatedly as one of America's
finest colleges or universities. U.S. News & World Report has cited
— for nine years in a row — JMU as the best public master's-level
university in the South. It was one of many national publications to
praise JMU's quality. The author of one guidebook summed things
up nicely when he wrote: "JMU is almost too perfect to be believed."
At my inauguration in 1999, I announced that JMU's enrollment
would stabilize after reaching previously agreed-upon state enrollment
projections. With relatively modest increases during the last few years,
our current enrollment is slightly more than 15,000. While our enrollment
has been relatively stable, current demand for admission to JMU continues
to grow, and we find ourselves in the difficult position of having to
decline many outstanding applicants. This past year, we received more
than 16,000 applications for an entering freshman class of around 3,300.
A variety of factors have combined to create a major budget shortfall
in Virginia. This necessitates budget cuts in public universities and
colleges as well as all other state agencies. At this time, the state
budget picture remains increasingly pessimistic for the 2002-04 biennium,
and we are dealing with cuts in our budget in a manner designed to minimize
the effect they will have on our academic programs. It is certainly
our hope that the state's revenue picture will improve. However,
no immediate end to the budgetary problem is in sight.
In addition to JMU's being recognized in national publications,
there have been many other activities and recognitions that illustrate
the excellence of JMU's academic programs.
JMU has quickly
become a national leader in technology and is one of 36 universities
in the nation recognized by the National Security Agency as a Center
of Academic Excellence in Information Assurance Education. JMU's
first Ph.D. program — a research doctorate in communication sciences
and disorders — began this fall. Faculty members from throughout
the university community received a multitude of individual honors and
recognitions during the past year. I have listed the major awards in
my year-end review on the Web at http://www.jmu.edu/president/
As always, JMU students demonstrated that the learning process continues
outside the classroom. U.S. News & World Report recognized JMU's
service-learning program as one of the nation's 25 best. More
than 1,500 JMU students volunteer their time and energies each year
to more than 100 area civic clubs and agencies.
New Facilities:
Shortly after the 2001-02 year began, we opened a new facility that
has been high on the wish list for faculty members and students for
many years — a 500-vehicle parking deck. A major addition containing
a conference center was added to the College Center with the opening
of the Leeolou Alumni Center, giving our alumni association —
for the first time ever — a major facility to call its own.
Giving Increases:
The need for private funding has become even more critical for JMU,
and the past year was characteristic of our increasing efforts to raise
private funds. Total private giving to the university in 2001-02 increased
by 7 percent over the previous year — from $5.6 million to a record
$6 million. Annual private support for JMU has more than doubled in
five years.
A Bright
I have been a part of James Madison University since 1975, and I remain
excited about the university's past, present and future. Still,
it is not a perfect world. Our funding is far less than it should be.
We need additional faculty members, staff members and facilities to
fully support top-quality programs for our outstanding student body.
Even with the needs that we have, I am extremely optimistic about the
future of our university. I continue to have great pride in JMU and
all the people associated with it. We are confident this will be another
wonderful year for the university.

Marcus even walks out of another date with a girl named Mindy while she finishes her meal.
I'd like everyone who agrees with Marcus to ask this question.
Put simply, a scientific consensus has yet to emerge, and Marcus ignored the ongoing debate.
To our right, though, it was dark like it must have been at the time of, well, let's say Marcus Aurelius.
Photographed by famed duo Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott, the campaign will debut in September magazine issues.
Then Marcus drew back his head with one of his boyish laughs.
Marcus Aurelius, Epictetus, and Seneca are the masters of this school.

"Thou art a good pleader, my Sejus," Marcus said pleasantly.
In a short time Marcus returned with a companion, another negro, but very unlike himself.

Peace of mind may close health gap for less educated
Oct. 25, 2010
Psychological well-being may be
a powerful enough force to counteract the bad long-term health effects of low socioeconomic status, a study indicates.

Psychological well-being may be powerful enough to counteract the negative long-term health effects of low socioeconomic status, a study indicates. In general, lack of education tends to predict future poor health and a relatively early death. But among people whose formal education ended with a high school diploma or less, researchers found that positive psychological characteristics such as meaningful relationships and a sense of purpose are linked to lower levels of a molecule in the body associated with many illnesses. "If you didn't go that far in your education, but you walk around feeling good psychological stuff, you may not be more likely to suffer ill-health than people with a lot of schooling," said Carol Ryff, University of Wisconsin-Madison psychologist and co-author of the study. The researchers measured levels of the molecule, called Interleukin-6, in participants in the Survey of Midlife in the United States, a now 10-year-long study of age-related differences in physical and mental health. The findings appear in the current online edition of the journal Health Psychology. The molecule, a protein, is involved in inflammatory processes in the body, and high levels "are associated with many kinds of cardiovascular disease, stroke, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, some cancers and other health problems," said Jennifer Morozink, a psychology graduate student at the school and the study's lead author. "These positive psychological characteristics all moderate the level of IL-6 for people without much education." The study found that less-educated people who scored high on measures of general happiness or self-acceptance, or who felt that their circumstances were manageable, showed levels of the inflammatory protein comparable to similarly satisfied, but highly-educated peers. The results are important because they reinforce a new angle on eliminating the wide gap in overall health between the well-to-do and the socioeconomically disadvantaged, Ryff said. "Other research shows that these psychological factors respond well to intervention," she explained. "Therapies exist that give people the tools to keep all these psychological characteristics working in their favor. They've been shown to keep people from falling back into depression and anxiety, which we know means bad things for their health." "Attentive parents, strong role models and feeling engaged in and important to their community could contribute a great deal to these psychological characteristics," she added.

Is thinking obsolete?
Some have said that we are living in a post-industrial era. Others have said that we are living in a post-racial era. But growing evidence suggests that we are living in a post-thinking era.
In an age when scientists are creating artificial intelligence, too many of our educational institutions seem to be creating artificial stupidity.
It is much the same story in our domestic controversies. We have gotten so intimidated by political correctness that our major media outlets dare not call people who immigrate to this country illegally "illegal aliens."
Geraldo Rivera has denounced the Drudge Report for carrying news stories that show some of the negative consequences and dangers from allowing vast numbers of youngsters to enter the country illegally and be spread across the country by the Obama administration.
Some of these youngsters already are known to be carrying lice and suffering from disease. Since there have been no thorough medical examinations of most of them, we have no way of knowing whether they, or how many of them, are carrying deadly diseases that will spread to American children when these unexamined young immigrants enter schools across the country.
The attack against Matt Drudge has been in the classic tradition of demagogues. It turns questions of fact into questions of motive. Geraldo accuses Drudge of trying to start a "civil war."
Back when masses of immigrants from Europe were entering this country, those with dangerous diseases were turned back from Ellis Island. Nobody thought they had a legal or a moral "right" to be in America or that it was mean or racist not to want our children to catch their diseases.
Even on the less contentious issue of minimum wage laws, there are the same unthinking reactions.
Although liberals are usually gung-ho for increasing the minimum wage, there was a sympathetic front page story in the July 29 San Francisco Chronicle about the plight of a local nonprofit organization that will not be able to serve as many low-income minority youths if it has to pay a higher minimum wage. It is seeking some kind of exemption.
Does it not occur to these people that the very same thing happens when a minimum wage increase applies to profit-based employers? They too tend to hire fewer inexperienced young people when there is a minimum wage law.
This is not breaking news. This is what has been happening for generations in the United States and in other countries around the world.
One of the few countries without a minimum wage law is Switzerland, where the unemployment rate has been consistently less than 4 percent for years. Back in 2003, The Economist magazine reported that "Switzerland's unemployment neared a five-year high of 3.9 percent in February." The most recent issue shows the Swiss unemployment rate back to a more normal 3.2 percent.
Does anyone think that having minimum wage laws and high youth unemployment is better? In fact, does anyone think at all these days?

Using Multi-Drawer Cabinets to Organize Materials
Montessori materials take up a lot of room – that's a fact. Shelf space always seems to be in short supply, no matter how many shelves you have.
One way to fit more materials on a shelf is to use a cabinet (sometimes called a "tower") with small drawers. Just like a skyscraper, cabinets make use of vertical space rather than horizontal.
While cabinets can be a great way to organize materials, it's important not to overuse them. One of the major drawbacks is that the work is not visible to the child while it's in the cabinet. A shelf full of multi-drawer cabinets isn't very appealing.
However, when used correctly, they can be a great way to keep materials straight. I always have a few in my classroom, so I'll show you some examples.
This is my geography cabinet, with drawers for each set of map arrows (found in my Continent Kits), as well as drawers for States and Capitals Matching Cards, organized by region:
This is one of my language cabinets; I call it "Word Study 3". My son used the "Word Study 1" cabinet in first grade, "Word Study 2" in second, and so on:
Here is another language cabinet, this time focused on Singular/Plural sets as well as some flashcards and matching cards:
You may have some questions about using the cabinets, so let's take a closer look.
1. Where can I find them?
I found the two white ones at the Container Store, and the blue one was purchased as an art cabinet filled with craft materials. After my kids used up the art stuff, I thought it would make a great language cabinet.
I've also seen cabinets like these at hardware and home improvement stores, and even at Target in the automotive/home repair section. Of course, you can find them online as well (search for "multi-drawer cabinets").
2. How do I label them?
The best way to label them is to print the names of the materials on self-adhesive address labels. I like the return address size, as they are small enough to fit right on the cabinet without cutting or bending. But, if you only have regular size labels, they can be cut or have the edges wrapped around the sides of the drawer front.
You may have to experiment with font sizes to make sure the names will fit on the labels. I like to use the Century Gothic font, since that's what most of my materials use.
3. How can I best use them in the classroom?
Place cabinets where children can access all the drawers. Since the materials are not visible, you may want to have a tray or basket next to the cabinet where you display one of the materials from the cabinet (rotate every month).
If you're teaching elementary, be sure to include cabinet materials on the workplan. If children show an interest in the materials, let them work on them as often as they like. For instance, some children will start with one word study set (compounds, homonyms) and continue until they've finished all the sets for that type of word.
Generally, children should take the entire drawer with the to the rug or table. Most drawers come out easily if you tilt them up, or gently squeeze the sides of the drawer together. You can show the children how to do that when you show them materials from the cabinet.
4. What can I put in them?
Multi-drawer cabinets are traditionally used for word study materials, but I've found that they work for other materials as well, like the map arrows pictured above. Some of them have bigger drawers that can accommodate matching cards and flashcards. Here are a few other suggestions:
A. Label one drawer for each letter of the alphabet and place small objects in the drawers that correspond with each letter
B. Pink, Blue, and Green Series work – include rhyming cards, pictures for movable alphabet, and even small objects
C. Math work, like equations and word problem cards, can easily be put in a cabinet. Just label each drawer to show the type of equation or word problem featured
I'm sure many of you have great ideas for using these in the classroom, so feel free to share!

Lori, it is so funny that you posted about this. I spent a good deal of time this weekend looking at drawers in Target and Jo-Ann. I'm actually looking for some drawers to help organize behind the scenes – in my scary teacher closet. I'm trying to find the perfect drawers to help organize my language cards – vocabulary and 3 parts cards. In my head these are towers and I will separate the cards in to "social" and "scientific" categories. These drawers could be a bit bigger if necessary because a) the boxes will be in a closet and b)the cards are bigger than the smaller labels. Any suggestions?
Lori Bourne said at May 18th, 2009 at 4:47 pm :
You know, I find these cabinets great for smaller cards, but not for 3-part cards. They can be pricey and take up lots of room – and it's hard to find them with larger drawers.
My "perfect" 3-part card solution (after trying lots of things) is a plastic shoebox for each curricular area (with labels on the front) and 3-part cards, matching cards, flashcards, etc. in individual Ziploc bags (also labeled) inside them.
I can store tons of card sets this way, and it's very easy to find each set.
PSMontessori said at May 19th, 2009 at 2:16 pm :
Shoeboxes. Duh!!
Lori Bourne said at May 19th, 2009 at 2:20 pm :
You wouldn't believe what I have tried over the years – accordion files, coupon holders, index card boxes. With shoeboxes, I have achieved 3-part card nirvana 🙂
Superfunmama said at May 22nd, 2009 at 11:26 pm :
Love this! I commented back to you on my blog and really appreciate your comment. You have fabulous ideas.
Lori Bourne said at May 23rd, 2009 at 8:15 am :
Thank you so much – and I hope everything works out for you and your family 🙂
Leslie Harman said at June 2nd, 2009 at 8:26 am :
Rubbermaid sold drawers (5″) across that you can snap apart to stack required number. The best ones were blue frames, clear drawers, colored pulls so you could color-code the pulls. Later I could only find them in black or white in office supply section. Lowe's has woderful clear drawers in three-stacks by "inter-design" that are (5 or 6″) wide. They are beautiful because you can put objects in them and they are visible, but a bit pricey. It helps a lot if you use a symbol, picture, or color for your label. Makes it much more appealing and more accessible to pre-readers. Drawers are a lifesaver for us in dusty West Texas.
Lori Bourne said at June 2nd, 2009 at 9:20 am :
Hi, Leslie! I love the idea of using a picture or symbol if they are materials for pre-readers. Very nice. And for older kids, the having a label on the drawer helps them know the name of the work so they can check it off their workplans.
Tara said at March 20th, 2011 at 1:04 pm :
You mentioned this was a word study cabinet in the Second photo. Are your word study cards broken up by grades? How do you know which words to study in first, second and third grade? Curious b/c my son is going to be in 1st grade next year and trying to figure out all that I need in Language arts.
Lori Bourne said at March 20th, 2011 at 3:10 pm :
Hi, Tara! Rather than break them up by grade (since children move at different paces), I just put all of Set 1 cards in one cabinet, Set 2 in the next, and so on. Once children complete Set 1 of whatever it is (Animal Names, Homophones), they move to Set 2.
Most Montessori companies, including mine, break up the Word Study cards into sets automatically. You don't have to do it yourself. For instance, Compound Matching Cards come divided into Set 1, Set 2, Set 3, etc.
Check out the free Elementary Workplans to see how that plays out month by month.
Tina said at December 12th, 2012 at 7:57 pm :
Could you please tell me from where you get the blue cabinet. I tried to look for it online in art supply stores but could not find any.
Lori Bourne said at December 12th, 2012 at 8:16 pm :
Hi, Tina! Under "1. Where Can I Find Them?", above in my post, is a link to the actual blue cabinet I show in my picture. Just click on "art cabinet".

Hello All,
Here fightnomads.com is not working due to some problem
Looks great, from what I can see the openxcell is the best, I like the others but that one has a great clean look but still finished.
Thank you TCblogger
I just had a quick look at fightnomads. I like it, it is clean and it loads pretty quickly. These two things are normally the main things I look for in a theme.
I would take another look at the ul li styling. The little squares are protruding over the edges of your div.
Generally speaking I would have to say that the theme is a job well done.
Okie ArnoldGoodway but this one is not original theme on fightnomads.com

3.) Add a style containing the url to your background with animation (this may be added to a separate CSS document or inside the … tag):

4.) Add an empty DIV which will display animation in your document:

5.) Add the following code to your … tag to initialize jAni and start the animation.

That's it ;) Click the Demo button to see it in action.

How can I use multible div boxes with this effects on. I tried copying it all and changed animation-1 to animation-2, but then none of them works. Like jAni is only meant to work for one?

Just an update…
Thank you guys for the comments (and emails) for the interest in a JavaScript alternative to an animated GIF. We are compiling the above items into a list for an updated version of the script. If there are any other requests, let us know.
September 27, 2011
I found a way to make it work as expected :
On line 61 change
bgPos -= settings.frameHeight – 1;
bgPos -= settings.frameHeight – 0;
Then using my 130*2070 / 23 frames it works perfectly ;)
Now i'm looking for a way to have multiple animations on the same page. Any idea ?
September 27, 2011
Hey :)
Nice script ^^
I just can it done right tho.. I made a 130*2070 gif meaning 23 frames of 130*90 but it shifts it wrong so that it doesnt show what its supposed to show. really annoying…
I tried the zoom thing and double checked everything. I also tried different speeds but still the same. Any idea ?
September 5, 2011
This is not a CSS issue. It is a browser issue. When zooming in or out on a page, everything zooms.
September 2, 2011
Im trying my best to use this plug in, but it seems i cant get it right… Im practicly using your very same code from the Demo page, and i still have this "bouncing" i dont want.. I tried everything, even using squared 100×100 px images, and still if i want the script to go 100px down, it still gives me a part of the square above (at 100 velocity it looks like its bouncing)… What should i do???
July 17, 2011
nice alternative to GIF animation. Better than flash for simple animations.
I have a problem. I really couldn't do animation on multiple div tags.
June 2, 2011
How can I get two animations working simultaneously on one page? It seems like the 1st animation doesn't animate.

hi really nice and simple plugin, thanks! just an advice when it reaches to end of the image, if it animates back to the start of the image, it should do a sleek loop animation. i had to do this manually on the image, bu it would be nicer if the plugin supports that, thanks.
May 30, 2011
Francois Longpre… sorry but the plugin does not support this feature at this time. what type of action is needed? we might could add it to a future version

Wonderful script! I am trying to use it in a flash alternative for a fancy navigation and it works great. The only thing missing to me is the ability to perform an action at the end of a non looping animation. Is there a way?
January 26, 2011
It is possible to make links to specific frames?
for example on load I need 4th frame, and want links next or previous. and also for each frame.
June 13, 2010
Hey nice plugin!
I am using this to play simple animation alternative of Flash.

What's Your Strategy for Supply Chain Disclosure?
Magazine: Winter 2016
- Research Feature
- Read Time: 22 min
How much information should a company disclose about its supply chain? In addition to having to be lean, agile, and sustainable, today's supply chains are increasingly the focus of growing attention from a variety of external stakeholders. These stakeholders often want information beyond what the company is legally obliged to disclose. But many companies have limited visibility of their supply chain information and have not fully considered their disclosure strategy.

White House spokesman Scott McClellan said plans for a European Union defence cell were among a "a range of issues" discussed by the two leaders.
Bush insisted the United States seeks "a dynamic, mutually reinforcing relationship between NATO and the EU, without duplication and divisiveness, and grounded in the essential NATO-EU agreements which underpin it," McClellan told reporters.
Blair has supported plans to strengthen European cooperation on defence and a greater role for Europe's rapid-reaction force within UN operations. This has reportedly caused tensions with Washington.
But the US president highlighted a joint US-British statement released when Bush visited Britain two weeks ago.
The United States fears that an EU defence initiative would rob the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation of some military capability and "double up" existing military structures.
The London statement maintained US and British support for a European security and defense policy that "improves Europe's capabilities to act and develops in a way that is fully coordinated, compatible and transparent with
It also stressed that, "with new members and new capabilities, NATO will be a cornerstone of world security in the 21st century."
The same US warning over a European defence initiative was made by US Secretary of State Colin Powell in a speech to NATO foreign ministers in Brussels.
Powell said: "The United States cannot accept independent EU structures that duplicate existing NATO capabilities."
The row over Europe's defense initiative has been simmering for months, ever since four countries opposed to the Iraq war -- France, Germany, Belgium and Luxembourg -- unveiled plans in April for an autonomous military planning cell outside Brussels.
The United States at one stage warned that the plans represented a "significant" threat to NATO, which has long been dominated by the United States.
The British prime minister has insisted that European defence can be improved without undermining NATO.
"There is nobody I know of in Europe that wants to see European defence go forward at the expense of NATO," Blair told a November 27 press conference with President Jacques Chirac of France.
"NATO will remain the cornerstone of our defence," Blair said.
"Neither the Germans nor the French wish in the slightest way to take any initiative which will be in contradiction with NATO, which as the prime minister has said, is the mainstay of European defence," Chirac said.
NATO leaders at the Brussels meeting expressed confidence Thursday that the European Union will not duplicate Alliance structures with its own military planning cell.
"The principle of non-duplication and absolute complementarity are shared by everyone," said Italian Foreign Minister Franco Frattini, whose country currently holds the EU presidency.
Speaking at a joint press conference with NATO chief George Robertson, the Frattini added: "I am not in favour of any planning process that will be duplicative of NATO structures."
Robertson added: "Together we will find a solution .. that will avoid unnecessary duplication .. but at the same time (which will) improve our military capabilities."

World Class Education Available Locally

World Class Education Available Locally
"Skills are needed," said Prime Minister John Key today when he visited WelTec's house building site at Otaki.
Linda Sissons, WelTec Chief Executive welcomed the Prime Minister and Hon Nathan Guy, MP for Otaki to the building site which comprises WelTec's Certificate in Carpentry programme. "These are our students and this house shows what they have learnt," said Linda Sissons. "These are the people you need to be looking to for the Christchurch rebuild effort."
"We need skilled craftspeople to carry out the job properly," said John Key speaking to students who had just completed their Certificate in Carpentry at WelTec's house building site at The Clean Technology Centre in Otaki. The Prime Minister said New Zealand will need many more skilled people in the construction industry to rebuild Christchurch and to fix the country's leaky homes.
The Prime Minister went on to congratulate WelTec and Whitireia for investing in trades training in the region. "It's great to see Whitireia and WelTec working together offering world class education locally."
Don Campbell, Whitireia Chief Executive explained the advantages of having two Institutes of Technology and Polytechnics working together to provide trades training on the Kapiti Coast which was now more available compared with 18 months ago.
For one WelTec student, Chris Aitken it was day one on the job with Northface Construction. His boss, Chris Beggs said having a local tertiary level training programme where students learn by building a house was invaluable.
"House building is a busy industry on the Kapiti Coast. We need young people with the right skills and attitude and employers are now more willing to take them on - it helps our business and the economy to grow. Most importantly young people are given an opportunity to learn a trade and be set up for a future in the building and construction industry. When I started out I didn't have an opportunity to learn like this. This is a great initiative which has my support. The opportunities with the Christchurch rebuild mean that young people like Chris should seriously think about this industry for a future career."
WelTec is a large Institute of Technology and Polytechnic providing trades training in the Wellington region, supported by funding from the Tertiary Education Commission and via contracts with a range of Industry Training Organisations (Building and Construction ITO, Plumbing, Gasfitting and Drainlaying ITO, Electrotechnology ITO, Motor ITO, Painting ITO (Decorate NZ) and Engineering ITO). We are a low risk (as assessed by TEC) ITP that year on year delivers more than 100% of its forecast student numbers.
WelTec has a strategic partnership with Whitireia Community Polytechnic, facilitated through a combined Council (led by Hon Roger Sowry) and joint Academic Board. This has facilitated collaborative programme delivery rather than wasteful duplication across the region; part of which involves either of the two institutions playing to its strengths in order to deliver needed training where need is greatest.
In the construction industry on the Kapiti Coast, Whitireia has pioneered collaboration with secondary schools, offering programmes on school sites open to current and former school students. Whitireia Polytechnic is partnering with Te Wananga o Raukawa with a course on the Wananga's Otaki campus and is also providing another in the Kapiti College grounds. Next year Whitireia will partner with Paraparaumu College. WelTec for its part has capitalised on its membership of the Clean Technology Centre in Otaki to start developing environmentally sustainable house building training programmes. The first step has been the establishment of a house-building site near to the Clean Technology Centre and using basic building technologies.
WelTec is also a major contributor to the Government's Skills for Canterbury initiative with 816 equivalent full-time students studying a range of trades. Overall we have 1900 Equivalent Fulltime students studying trades currently at campuses located at Petone, Wairarapa and Otaki. We and Whitireia are also involved in Pasifika trades with around 80 Pasifika scholarship students undertaking priority trades training supported by their Churches and community.
Both institutes have a strong focus on youth with a significant involvement in Youth Guarantee (4 of the Otaki students are Youth Guarantee). WelTec runs the Wellington Trades Academy for secondary school students. This includes a range of trades programmes for students.
The Otaki Initiative
The Otaki initiative came about in response to the Government's call for more qualified trades people to assist with the rebuild of Canterbury and for the construction industry NZ wide.
The offering at Otaki is the Certificate in Carpentry Level 3 (a full-time pre-employment pre-trade programme) whereby graduates go on to complete a National Certificate in Carpentry Level 4 through industry-based apprenticeships or cadetships. Students attending class at Otaki come from Levin through to Paraparaumu.
9 students will complete the programme this year under the tutorage of Richard Carter from WelTec's School of Construction. Some students have job offers from local builders which will include apprenticeships. These employers are mainly small residential companies. There are still challenges for graduates finding work as demand from the rebuild of Christchurch is yet to fully materialise.
Both WelTec and Whitireia have a close working relationship with a number of employers and the Building and Construction ITO. The Otaki students, like their counterparts in Petone and Masterton, have been building this house during their programme succeeding well with this contextualised learning.
Like the other houses built by WelTec students, the house built in Otaki is three bedrooms and 113m^2. The houses are sold on the open market and this house has been bought by a purchaser in the Wairarapa for $76k (covers the cost of materials).
As part of the longer term intention to develop environmentally sustainable construction, WelTec has entered into an agreement with the Little Greenie Trust, an organisation which builds "Green" houses, to develop a curriculum supporting this important emerging priority. Information on this is provided in the packs for the PM and Hon Nathan Guy to take away.

I can appreciate what Priest tried to do with this release – after the reunion album Angel Of Retribution, which was the textbook definition of 'playing it safe' albeit a solid release overall, they wanted to experiment. This album, as you've no doubt inferred, is a concept album about the prophet Nostradamus, who for those not in the know, was a 16th century purported prophet who made predictions, or quatrains, about major events to come – and whether or not you believe he was the real deal, some of the quatrains are adequately creepy in their similarity to the events that they supposedly predicted – so it's an interesting lyrical concept and I'm glad to see a band as able as Priest take on the job.
What we have here is a massive album – it's as long as a full-length movie and spans two discs, so you're definitely getting your money's worth in that regard – with a smorgasbord of mid-paced tracks and symphonic influences. So this could have worked out one of two ways: we could have here a sweeping, epic number that uses its symphonic elements in creative and moody ways, building up to majestic swells or brooding tones where the themes demand it, and a solid sense of dynamics between heavy and soft – or we could have an album that ultimately collapses under the weight of its own grandeur, unable to sustain such a lofty concept for its running time and songwriting style.
I'm sorry, Priest. But to me, this album is mostly the latter.
The biggest problem at work here is that the album, especially at the midsection, just drags on without the musical adventurism needed to sustain interest on repeated listens. Look at the song Alone, for example: it's a number that gradually builds with some sweeping vocal work and tastefully-subdued guitar licks, and it could have worked in half its running time. There's just not the diversity or freshness to sustain a seven-minute clock-in. Actually, many of these softer songs just aren't up to par as stand-alone tunes. They're the kind of thing that you'd see as filler on previous Priest albums, but here they're placed at the forefront as the meat of the album. They're formulaic in composition and performance, which gives me the impression that the band wanted to create something with an epic exterior whilst not putting forth as much effort to make it so on the interior.
Okay, so maybe that was a bit harsh; perhaps they really, really did try. Because there are a few points on this album where the whole mid-paced symphonic thing really hits home with exactly the atmosphere that an album like this deserves: take the excellent song Death (Title is about as subtle as a sledgehammer, but it's lovable in its forwardness). Rob's vocals in the first half go from a slightly regretful, but powerful and subtle rasp to the occasional high wail that hits on just the right emotional frequency. All the while, Priest's beloved dual guitar attack is there in the background, pounding out doomy licks at just the right places, gradually building in intensity. You can almost feel the cold wind brushing through the nighttime cathedral cemetery, or the feel of the dark one's scythe against the back of your neck. I typed that last sentence up just by closing my eyes and focusing on the music right now, so it's very effective for me. The last parts of the song have this strong, sorrowful moaning illuminating the background under Halford's increasingly-urgent vocal delivery – it's a wonderful song, and something refreshingly different for Priest.
Unfortunately, Death speaks for the minority of the album. Many other mid-paced songs here suffer from being – I hate to use this term, but it's honestly the best one I can think of – uninteresting at best, and not at all fitting with their supposed mood, at worst. Come on – far be it from me to tell a band as legendary as this how to write their music, but something like War would be far better served by being an aggressive, vicious thrasher, for example. Speaking of which…
I'm not ragging on Nostradamus for being a mostly mid-paced album. No, it just seems that Priest are out of their element, and it shows. Pestilence And Plague is a genuinely solid song, and guess what? It shows Priest in their more traditional element and rocks pretty hard. I'll give the up-tempo title track a pass for pretty much borrowing the Painkiller riff in its verse, because the song is very good overall. Halford's vocals take on a storyteller's dynamic, shifting appropriately throughout the verses and chorus.
The band as a unit plays tightly. I was worried about Halford's aging vocals after his performance on Rising In The East (Poor guy seemed like he was going to keel over during Painkiller), but he does very well here. His softer vocals have much more emotional depth here than on the band's other albums, and his singing is the high point of the interludes – they do slow an already-dragging album down, but at least his vocals prevent me from writing them off as a total loss. The other band members don't ever seem to go out of their way to really show what they're made of, but their performance works.
The lyrical direction is something that I'd like to point out on personal preference. Ideally, an album about Nostradamus's life would strike some kind of balance between his life, and the content of his prophecies. I can't be the only one who felt that certain prophecies would make excellent stand-alone songs. Instead, we get a series of songs about war, conquest, pestilence and death, and otherwise only vague mentions of the fact that he has prophecies – otherwise it's just a story about a man persecuted by the Catholic Church, which while interesting from a historical perspective, just can't be the angle that the band hoped for. For what they are, though, the lyrics are eloquent and effective. So that's just a personal point.
You almost had it, Priest. Much of the album suffers from not being interesting enough to keep one's attention through a whole listen. Interestingly, Loch Ness from the last record was like a foreshadowing of this album: a unique and intriguing lyrical concept that nobody's really dared to tackle before, albeit bloated more than Garfield the cat. But make no mistake, there are some gems to be had: the before-mentioned Death, Pestilence And Plague, the building Persecution, the well-plotted Revelations and the rousing title track, for example. This album definitely works better for me when the individual tracks are picked apart and listened to separately, rather than having to sit through much of the bloat. Die-hard Priest fans owe it to themselves to give Nostradamus a look. All told, I'm glad I bought this, because repeat listens – mainly, of individual tracks – have fallen in the album's favour, so I amended my ranking of this album from a 65% to a 70% - to me, a low B and a commendable effort. If you're just getting into the Metal Gods, avoid this album for now and pick up Sad Wings Of Destiny, Painkiller or Unleashed In The East. I went in with a reasonably open mind, but the problem isn't with the direction – it's the execution.

As a chemical engineering major, James Morrison has earned the top ranking in the department and a reputation among his professors as one of the most impressive students they have taught at Princeton.

Princeton researchers have invented a method for turning simple data about rainfall and river networks into accurate assessments of fish biodiversity, allowing better prediction of the effects of climate change and the ecological impact of man-made structures like dams.
Professor Ignacio Rodriguez-Iturbe and a group of Princeton researchers have invented a method for turning data about rainfall and river networks into accurate assessments of fish biodiversity.
Princeton researchers published a paper in the May 8, 2008, issue of the journal Nature which shows that water dynamics play a pivotal role in the biodiversity of river networks. The team created a computer simulation that allows them to predict - based on rainfall measurements and on how rivers connect to one another — how many species of fish will occupy any given region. In this interview, Ignacio Rodriguez-Iturbe, the James S. McDonnell Distinguished University Professor of Civil and
As microchips shrink, even tiny defects in the lines, dots and other shapes etched on them become major barriers to performance. Princeton engineers have now found a way to literally melt away such defects, using a process that could dramatically improve chip quality without increasing fabrication cost.
Among the many awards and honors Princeton engineers receive, one of the most appreciated is the Excellence in Teaching Award from the from the undergraduate and graduate engineering councils.
Emily Carter, the Arthur W. Marks '19 Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering and Applied and Computational Mathematics, has been elected to the National Academy of Sciences, one of the highest scientific honors. In a separate honor, Carter and fellow Princeton engineers Pablo Debenedetti and Marlan Scully were elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, the nation's most prestigious society spanning the sciences and humanities.
