An innovative work of biography that traces the lasting impact of the friendship between Sigmund Freud and pioneering American psychologist James Jackson Putnam.In 1909 Sigmund Freud made his only visit to America, which included a trip to "Putnam Camp"—the eminent American psychologist James Jackson Putnam''s family retreat in the Adirondacks. "Of everything I experienced in America, this is probably the strangest," Freud wrote of Putnam Camp. Putnam, a Boston Unitarian, and Freud, a Viennese Jew, came from opposite worlds, cherished polarized ambitions, and promoted seemingly irreconcilable visions of human nature—and yet they struck up an unusually fruitful collaboration. Putnam''s unimpeachable reputation played a crucial role in legitimizing the psychoanalytic movement. By the time of Putnam''s death in 1918, psychoanalysis had been launched in America, where—thanks to the influence of Putnam, and in a development Freud had not anticipated—it went on to become a practice that moved beyond the vicissitudes of desire to cultivate the growth and spiritual aspirations of the individual as a whole.Putnam Camp reveals details of Putnam''s and Freud''s personal lives that have never been fully explored before, including the crucial role Putnam''s muse, Susan Blow—founder of America''s first kindergarten, pioneering educator and philosopher in the American Hegelian movement—played in the intense debate between these two great thinkers.As the great-grandson of Putnam, author George Prochnik had access to a wealth of personal firsthand material from the Putnam family—as well as from the James and Emerson families—all of which contribute to a new and intimate vision of the texture of daily life at a moment when America was undergoing a cultural and intellectual renaissance.

Legal problems of mass communication, institutions, and media operations.
Class description
New Media and Old Laws
For Fall 2008, Communication 557 (Government and Mass Communication) will focus on the law and regulation of new media technologies. The class meets T & Th. 11:30-1:20.
The Internet and related technologies raise a number of questions about communication law and policy: Should they be treated like traditional media (print, broadcasting, or common carriers), a hybrid, or something entirely new? What regulatory regime is emerging, if any, to govern new media? This class will examine the struggle to adapt existing legal principles, or develop new ones, for an age of new media technologies.
Following are some of the questions we�ll address in class: � Should anonymous speech on the Internet be protected when it�s libelous, hate speech, or constitutes harassment? � Should ISPs be allowed to constrain subscribers� choices by favoring access to some information services over others (net neutrality)? � What role does government play in promoting universal broadband service? � What special protections, if any, should be established to safeguard children from harmful content on the Internet and in digital games? � Should rules against deceptive advertising be extended to commercial content on the Internet? � Should government take down websites that communicate information that threatens national security? � Should political speech and campaign advertising on the Internet be subject to any rules? � How can copyright law be adjusted to balance the interests of creators and audiences in the Internet age?
Besides introducing students to these issues, the course will examine general legal and policy processes as they bear on new media and provide instruction in the basics of legal research (i.e., navigating court cases, law review articles, and government reports). There is no text book; readings will be available from online sources. Students will prepare some article or case abstracts and write a short research paper or prepare a bibliographic essay.

Global Inflation Dynamics: regularities & forecasts
The analysis of dollar inflation performed by the authors through the approximation of empirical data for 1913-2012 with a power-law function with an accelerating log-periodic oscillation superimposed over it has made it possible to detect a quasi-singularity point around the 17th of December, 2012. It is demonstrated that, if adequate measures are not taken, one may expect a surge of inflation around the end of this year that may also mark the start of stagflation as there are no sufficient grounds to expect the re-start of the dynamic growth of the world economy by that time. On the other hand, as the experience of the 1970s and the 1980s indicates, the stagflation consequences can only be eliminated with great difficulties and at a rather high cost, because the combination of low levels of economic growth and employment with high inflation leads to a sharp decline in consumption, aggravating the economic depression. In order to mitigate the inflationary consequences of the explosive growth of money (and, first of all, US dollar) supply it is necessary to take urgently the world monetary emission under control. This issue should become central at the forthcoming G8 and G20 summits.

The father of Eloise Worledge, the eight-year-old girl abducted from her Beaumaris home 27 years ago, has taken a police lie detector test to dispel rumours that he was involved in her disappearance.
Lindsay Worledge took the test after police reopened the case, but the polygraph findings were inconclusive. "It did not produce a result which would satisfy police curiosity," Mr Worldege, a retired business consultant, told The Age.
A Melbourne coroner, Frank Hender, will be told on Monday that vital crime scene evidence and police records into the case have been lost and that this has hampered detectives' new investigation.
Among the missing documents were the original police interviews with Mr Worledge.
Eloise Worledge was found missing from her bed in Scott Street on January 13, 1976. Her parents were in the process of separating and Mr Worledge had agreed to move out of the family home. He was due to sign a rental lease on a residential property in Carnegie on the day Eloise disappeared.
The wind-out window in her bedroom was found open, the flywire screen cut, and tanbark from the garden was found on the floor of her room. But police believe she was probably taken through the unlocked front door and that the screen may have been cut to mislead police.
Despite a search by 250 police, a reward offer, a taskforce investigation and repeated pleas to the public, no trace of her has been found.
The coroner will be told that years after the abduction police found that two child molesters may have had links to Eloise. One worked at a local shop used by the Worledges while the second was connected to a Beaumaris drama group frequented by the family.
Two years ago police launched a fresh investigation into the case. Detectives have concluded that she is dead, but have been unable to identify her abductor.
One of the original investigators, former detective senior sergeant Jan Lierse, said police were never able to establish what happened to Eloise. "We are no further advanced now than... when she was first reported missing about 7.30 in the morning. I have no suspects whatsoever."
Eloise's mother, Patsy, said she had accepted that she will never know what happened to her daughter.
Mr Worledge said the inquest would not provide a new insight into the case. "Essentially it is an interpretation of the complete unknown," he said.

Augmented reality has seen a great deal of adoption by traditional print magazines of late. With the launch of Layar's Creator web service last week, more and more magazines are sure to continue this trend and look to this technology that creatively bridges the off and online world and is much more desirable than the not-so-pretty QR code alternative.
The latest publication to bring AR technology to their pages is the men's general-interest magazine, GQ.
GQ has partnered with AR platform Aurasma on GQLive, an AR app that will deliver extra, 3D content to readers when they hover their mobile device over the magazine pages. According to the GQ release, the app will recognize ads and editorial content as AR markers and offer up "videos, 3D modeling, and more."
The first AR-enabled GQ magazine will be September's issue and the GQLive app will be available for iOS and Android beginning August 21st.
As magazines move past adoption of AR and start to collect usage stats, it will be interesting to see if they start to develop formal ad packages for regular placement of AR-enabled ads. Print newspapers should take note as such an ad model may help boost revenues a bit for their struggling industry once AR becomes a b it more mainstream.
What do you think? Will AR change the way we read print publications? What other print media would benefit from AR technology? Books? Newsletters? Annual Reports?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tillage is the process in which soil is loosened and softened by tillers or harrows pulled by a tractor or by a plough pulled by an animal or human. The plough breaks the upper crust of the soil so that air and sunlight enter into the soil. This makes the soil more fertile but too much or frequent tillage may make it less fertile.

Racial And Ethnic Health Disparities Linked To Physician Practice Resources
Physicians Treating More Minority Patients Report Greater Problems Delivering High-Quality Care; Increasing Medicaid Payments To Medicare Levels Could Reduce Health Care Disparities
Bethesda, MD -- Primary care physicians treating a disproportionate share of black and Latino patients typically earn less, see more patients, provide more charity care, treat more Medicaid patients, and receive lower private insurance payments than their counterparts who treat fewer such patients, according to a national study funded by the Commonwealth Fund and published today as a Web Exclusive in the journal Health Affairs. http://content.healthaffairs.org/cgi/content/abstract/hlthaff.27.3.w222
These same physicians also reported more problems providing high-quality care, ranging from inadequate time with their patients to difficulty obtaining specialty care. Conducted by researchers at the Center for Studying Health System Change (HSC), the study sheds new light on the pervasive racial and ethnic health disparities in the United States by looking beyond individual patient characteristics to community and physician practice resources. The study also examined how higher Medicaid payments might help physicians treating mostly minority patients provide high-quality care and reduce racial and ethnic disparities.
"The findings indicate that the lower resources flowing to physicians treating more minority patients are associated with racial and ethnic disparities," said HSC Senior Researcher James D. Reschovsky, coauthor of the study with HSC Senior Researcher Ann S. O'Malley.
"Raising Medicaid payment rates, along with efforts to increase insurance coverage or otherwise increase resources flowing to physicians treating low-income and minority patients, could reduce disparities," Reschovsky said.
"The findings indicate that physicians who treat mostly minorities face challenges in delivering high-quality care. However, it also points to solutions that can reduce racial and ethnic disparities while improving health care access, quality, and efficiency for everyone," Commonwealth Fund Assistant Vice President Anne C. Beal, M.D., said. "In addition to increasing Medicaid payment levels, other efforts such as quality reporting and financial incentives for improving care, particularly through Medicaid, could also reduce disparities and help move the U.S. toward a high-performance health system."
The Health Affairs article, titled "Do Primary Care Physicians Treating Minority Patients Report Problems Delivering High-Quality Care?," is based on findings from HSC's nationally representative 2004-05 Community Tracking Study Physician Survey, supplemented by secondary information from the Census Bureau and other sources. The survey had a 52 percent response rate and included information from 3,320 primary care physicians -- general internists, family/general practitioners and pediatricians.
The researchers first identified physicians in low-, medium- and high-minority practices -- those whose patient panels were less than 30 percent, 30-70 percent, and greater than 70 percent black or Latino, respectively.
About 52 percent of primary care physicians reported having patient panels with less than 30 percent minorities, 36 percent reported 30-70 percent of their patients were minorities, and 12 percent reported that minorities constituted more than 70 percent of their patients, confirming previous research showing that relatively small numbers of physicians treat a disproportionately large share of minority patients.
The study also confirmed previous research showing well-established associations among greater minority presence, less insurance coverage, and lower incomes. In 2004-05, physicians in high-minority practices were located in areas with lower median incomes and higher uninsurance rates compared with physicians not in high-minority practices, according to the study.
Moreover, physicians in high-minority practices received more than a third of their practice revenue from Medicaid, compared with 13 percent for physicians in low-minority practices. The study also found that 35 percent of physicians in high-minority practices reported that patients' inability to pay was a major barrier to providing high-quality care, compared with 23 percent of physicians in low-minority practices.
Other key study findings include the following:
-- Twenty-six percent of physicians in high-minority practices reported being unable to provide high-quality care to all of their patients, compared with 16 percent of physicians in low-minority practices.
-- Physicians in high-minority practices reported caring for more patients with whom they had a hard time communicating because they speak a different language -- 8 percent of patients in high-minority practices vs. 2 percent of patients in low-minority practices.
-- International medical graduates were nearly twice as likely to be found in high-minority practices -- nearly 40 percent, vs. 21 percent in low-minority practices. Physicians in high-minority practices had fewer years of practice experience (14 years vs. 17 years) and were less likely to be board certified than their counterparts in low-minority practices (80 percent vs. 89 percent).
-- Physicians in high-minority practices were more likely to report difficulties obtaining specialty care for their patients (42 percent), compared with physicians in low-minority practices (31 percent). The physicians attributed this to patients' being uninsured or having insurance coverage that posed access barriers -- not to an inadequate supply of qualified specialists in the area.
-- Physicians in high-minority practices reported that inadequate time during office visits was a major problem affecting their ability to provide high-quality care -- 26 percent vs. 18 percent of physicians in low-minority practices. Physicians in high-minority practices spent about 30 percent less time with each patient seen than those in low-minority practices (15 minutes vs. 21 minutes).
-- When researchers modeled the likely effect of raising Medicaid physician payments to equal Medicare payments, they found improvements on several measures, particularly for physicians in high-minority practices. For example, inadequate time with patients was reduced by 5.8 percentage points among physicians treating high proportions of minority patients.
-- Physicians in high-minority practices were significantly more likely than physicians in low-minority practices to report difficulties obtaining timely reports from other providers. Nearly a quarter of physicians in high-minority practices reported that not getting timely reports from other providers was a major problem affecting their ability to provide high-quality care, compared with 11 percent of physicians in low-minority practices, suggesting increased challenges to care coordination for providers in high-minority practices.
-- Similarly, physicians in high-minority practices were 10 percentage points more likely to complain that the scope of care they are expected to provide without referral was greater than it should be (28 percent vs. 18 percent).
The study concludes that "racial and ethnic disparities in primary health care are in part systemic in nature, and the lower resources flowing to physicians treating more minority patients are a contributing factor. In particular . . . if Medicaid payments to physicians were on par with those paid by Medicare, disparities in reported difficulties between physicians whose patient panels were made up of greater versus smaller proportions of minorities would diminish, often substantially. Low payments may be leading primary care physicians to reduce the time spent with patients and more generally diminish their ability to function effectively as their patients' medical home."

|Dr. Michael J. Ginzberg, Dean of the Kogod School of Business
I am pleased to announce the appointment of Dr. Michael J. Ginzberg as Dean of the Kogod School of Business effective July 1, 2011.
Dr. Ginzberg is currently Associate Provost of Yeshiva University and Dean of Yeshiva's Sy Syms School of Business, where he holds an appointment as Professor of Management and Information Systems. In this role, he led the development of a strategic plan to transform the school's faculty, academic programs, and culture. Prior to his tenure at Yeshiva, he was dean of the Alfred Lerner College of Business and Economics at the University of Delaware, where he excelled in building the school's profile through executive education programs, research centers, and contracts to offer graduate education through relationships with international agencies.
A seasoned and experienced leader, Ginzberg is enthusiastic about the opportunity to cultivate the development of a thriving community of faculty, staff and students. The Kogod School of Business is well positioned to move to new levels of distinction in the competitive environment of business education. I am confident that Michael Ginzberg is the right person at the right time to help Kogod reach new heights. He is committed to helping faculty align their curriculum, teaching, and scholarship interests with a distinctive and a compelling position among the nation's business schools. Under his leadership, the Kogod School of Business will serve as a magnet for business students and set the pace for scholarship that has impact in Washington and around the world.
Ginzberg's appointment as the dean of Washington's first business school comes at a time when the Kogod School of Business is experiencing a rise in national rankings, investing in faculty research, and expanding its degree portfolio of 10 programs to include a new Master of Science in Sustainability Management. As Dean Ginzberg sees it, "Kogod is an outstanding school poised for further growth and distinction. Given AU's historic strengths in policy, its strong international reputation, and the opportunities in the nation's capital, our students and faculty can have an impact in both business and government, standing out from other top business schools."
A prolific scholar whose interests focus on how investments in technology create value for business, as well as the impact of technology on corporate governance, Ginzberg has published numerous articles and books in the field of Management and Information Systems. His faculty appointments include those at Case Western Reserve University, NYU, and Columbia, as well as at institutions in Italy, Hungary and the Netherlands.

I want to thank search committee chair, Dr. Heather Elms, as well as the entire committee for their extraordinary commitment of time and talent. This team of Kogod faculty, staff and students as well as a member of the Kogod Advisory Council and another of AU's deans did an exceptional job of identifying qualified candidates, thoroughly vetting them, and guiding them through the process that has brought Michael Ginzberg to AU. I am grateful for their work.
Dr. Ginzberg plans a transition period at AU beginning June 1, and he will have ample opportunity to effect a smooth transition as Dean Richard Durand completes his term on June 30. Please join me in welcoming Dr. Michael Ginzberg as the new dean of the Kogod School of Business.

Earlier this month, we told you about GM's plan to use Sharp's dual-view LCD display technology on its navigation systems. But it appears ToMoCo has beat GM to the punch. Toyota unveiled its dual-purpose navigation/entertainment unit on the Alphard — a minivan sold in Asian markets. The system allows the driver to look at the navigation while the passenger watches a DVD at the same time. Frankly, we can care less who offered it first, it's just such a cool gadget we can't wait til it becomes adopted as an industry standard.

Pens coach Bylsma brings stability to bench
Ray Shero is in his sixth season as general manager of the Penguins and has hired one coach, establishing constancy at a position that has proven unstable throughout franchise history.
Dan Bylsma became the 20th man to hold the job when he was hired Feb. 15, 2009, plucked from the club's AHL affiliate after the parent team had plummeted to 10th in the NHL's Eastern Conference.
"We could have gone with an older, more experienced coach, which might have been an easier way to go because we obviously weren't in a good spot at that point," Shero said, referring to his firing of Michel Therrien, the coach he inherited from previous general manager Craig Patrick. "In the end we decided to go with somebody who could grow with the team, and Dan happened to be a very good fit. I wasn't thinking short-term solution."
A short term is what most general managers get from their coaches. There are six new bench bosses this season, and the average tenure is 2.86 years, according to a recent report by Yahoo! Sports. That is actually up from 2.5 years from the 2001-02 season.
Buffalo's Lindy Ruff (13 seasons) and Nashville's Barry Trotz (12) are the longest-tenured NHL coaches, followed by Detroit's Mike Babcock (six) and Anaheim's Randy Carlyle (six). Bylsma is one of seven current coaches to have won the Stanley Cup, but only he, Babcock and Carlyle have done so with their current clubs.
Shero's hope for a sustainable fit has been realized in Bylsma, who leads the Penguins into his third home opener Tuesday night against Florida at Consol Energy Center.
Unlike that magical spring of 2009 when Bylsma guided the Penguins to an 18-3-4 finish and then the Stanley Cup, neither he nor his players are the new kids on the block. Tags such as "young" and "inexperienced" no longer apply.
He began his third full season Thursday amid lofty expectations, even if he downplays the fact the Penguins are the popular pick to win the Cup.
He crafted every aspect of training camp, from controlled-scrimmage faceoffs between superstar centers Evgeni Malkin and Sidney Crosby to pushing top prospect Joe Morrow in the direction of been-there defenseman Kris Letang, to set a tone.
"You might be expecting to win a Stanley Cup. You might be thinking making the playoffs is a good thing," Bylsma said. "You're trying to provide the necessary tools to do it both through practice and the environment you establish for the team. Those are my broad goals."
Trials for teacher
If he lasts the season, Bylsma will have coached more Penguins games than everyone but Ed Johnston (516), Red Kelly (274) and Therrien (272). Last his current contract, which runs through the 2013-14 season, and he will trail only Johnston, who served two stints as head coach.
Johnston's second run, 276 games from 1993-97, is the longest continuous stretch for any coach in franchise history.
Johnston's 1995-96 squad finished second in the conference. Therrien's 2006-07 club improved by 47 points from the previous year and ended a seven-year playoff drought. "Badger" Bob Johnson steered the Penguins to a first division title in 1991, and two years later Scotty Bowman guided a 119-point team that won a record 17 consecutive contests.
Still, those feats did not earn those coaches the Jack Adams Award annually given to the league's top coach. In fact, before Bylsma won the honor in June, no Penguins coach had been able to declare himself best for one regular season.
Of course, no previous Penguins coach had to do what Bylsma did last season, when each of the franchise's four "foundation" players was lost in some form.
Goalie Marc-Andre Fleury was lost mentally, not winning his second game until mid-November. Injuries prevented two-way center Jordan Staal from playing until New Year's Day. Four days later, captain and NHL scoring leader Crosby was lost for the season with a concussion. About a month after that, Malkin was forced to the surgical room with torn right knee ligaments.
"It was a lot to deal with," left wing Chris Kunitz said. "We went through it, and still, looking back, it's, like, 'Wow, that was a lot.'"
Bylsma prefers the term "manager" more than "coach," but his players think he was more "teacher of the year." Left wing Matt Cooke offered this as an example:
His second suspension last season left Bylsma without a top penalty killer for the final 10 regular-season games and seven playoff contests. Instead of reprimanding Cooke, Bylsma joined him to watch more than 20 hours of video in hope of helping arguably hockey's most controversial player learn a new way to hit -- a legal way.
"He didn't have to do that," Cooke said. "But that's Dan. He's a teacher."
So are Bylsma's assistants, Tony Granato and Todd Reirden, Cooke said.
"Their strength is communication," he said. "All three are committed to put in the time and effort to make us successful. They all want to teach. They all want to be there as outlets for the players. That helps."
Staying the course
Staal said Bylsma and his staff — Granato (third year), Reirden (second) and goalie coach Gilles Meloche (sixth) — proved their collective worth during the second half of last season, when Crosby and Malkin weren't around and AHL regulars became a fixture in the NHL lineup.
"They just didn't change. That's the biggest thing. If you start changing, players start doubting what you're doing," Staal said. "They stayed even-keeled, worked the way they had worked when everybody else was in the lineup, and that kept the players from wavering and kept us confident in what we were doing."
The Penguins went 17-10-4 to end the season. They were 9-2-4, earning 22 of 30 possible points, in games decided by one goal, at one point winning four consecutive shootouts.
There is a theory, one to which Bylsma's players don't subscribe, that the Penguins played differently without Crosby and Malkin.
"We did have to win a different way, but we stuck to the same system, principles, everything," Staal said. "It was great the way we were winning, but the coaches' message didn't change — and I didn't expect it to."
Finding fits
Right wing Tyler Kennedy, who has matured into a top-six winger and is coming off a career-best 21-goal season, isn't sure he would be in this spot if not for Granato.
"He knows how to shrug things off and feel out a player," Kennedy said. "If you're down, he pumps you up, and if you're doing well, he makes sure you work harder.
"He's been around a lot of hockey players as a player and as a coach. He knows how to read people better because of that. The more you know how to read people, the faster you can help them."
A year after hiring Granato in the 2009 offseason, Bylsma faced the task of replacing assistant coach Mike Yeo. He had a candidate in mind but wasn't sure how his idea would fly, even though Shero told Bylsma "to hire who he feels comfortable with."
Reirden, a former defenseman, was Bylsma's assistant in the AHL and the man he trusted most to join him with the Penguins. Conventional wisdom called for a NHL-tested assistant, one with a harder edge than the professorial Bylsma and competitive-but-good-natured Granato.
"I said to Dan, 'You know, there are a number of good candidates here,'" Shero said. "It was pretty obvious he thought Todd was the best choice.
"Todd's been a very good fit with our young defensemen in our entire system, but also he was the right personality for the job and the fit with the head coach. That's what I'm looking for because they report to Dan, and Dan reports to me, but I let him do his thing."
Making it work
Veteran forward Craig Adams, whose name is on the Cup twice, witnessed the benefit of the coaching staff's personality mesh with players when times turned tough last season.
"These guys don't forget what it's like to be a player, the things that are tough or easy," Adams said. "They seem to have a pretty good feel where the team's at, when to push, when to let up. They know the personnel pretty well.
"They didn't panic. There wasn't an end-of-the-world mentality, no freaking out. Everything kind of stayed the same, and that was the big part of our success last year. If anybody doubted our staff, the way these guys reacted won them (clout) in our room."
Shero's experience as an assistant general manager with Ottawa and Nashville suggests he values coaching stability. The Predators, from whom he was hired, have had only Trotz as head coach since joining the league.
Shero signed Therrien, despite the coach not being Shero's hire, to a new three-year contract after the Penguins reached the 2008 Cup Final. Therrien was fired seven months later with the team five points out of a playoff spot with 25 games remaining.
Since Bylsma guided the Penguins to the Cup in 2009, they haven't won more than a playoff round. Ownership continues to spend up to the NHL's salary cap. So if the Penguins are not resulting up to expectations this February, as they weren't in February 2009 ...
"Look, not every coach is the right choice for a certain team," Shero said, "but Dan's certainly proven he's the right guy for this team.
"The way our coaches break down the opposition in terms of preparation for each game -- it's there for the players; they're being taught, 'Here's what we need to do to win to be successful tonight.' That doesn't mean we're going to be, but I know this staff has our players prepared to be successful every night.
"There's not a lot more I can ask."

Cody Simpson
It's always awkward to run into a former lover, so when Cody Simpson and Gigi Hadid had to sit next to each other on a plane, they had to figure out a way to make it work.
On Monday (June 22), the Australian crooner and his model ex ended up in side-by-side seats in the first class section of the aircraft as they departed Canada. So they posted a photo of the precarious situation via social media. Simpson added the caption, "When you get seated next ot ur ex on a plane."
Rounding out the weekend with some star-studded action, the 2015 MuchMusic Video Awards took over Toronto, Canada on Sunday evening (June 21).
Hosted by Ed Sheeran, the exciting event crowned Justin Bieber as Fan Fave Artist, while One Direction nabbed the trophy for Fan Fave Group of the Year.
They're both impossibly gorgeous so it's not surprising that Mario Testino snagged Gigi Hadid and her boyfriend Cody Simpson for the latest installment of his "Towel Series."
The famed photographer shared a snapshot via Instagram of Miss Hadid and her Aussie beau wearing nothing but a towel around their waists, with Gigi covering her modesty with her arms.
Taking full advantage of some mutual time off, Gigi Hadid grabbed her boyfriend Cody Simpson and hit the beach in Miami, Florida yesterday afternoon (March 15).
The 19-year-old model-of-the-moment and her handsome Australian singer/songwriter beau splashed in the Atlantic Ocean and flirted up a storm while beachgoers and shutterbugs looked on.
Combining their heartthrob powers for pop music greatness, Justin Bieber and Cody Simpson just released their first tag-team track called "Home to Mama."
The "As Long as You Love Me" Canadian crooner and the "Pretty Brown Eyes" Aussie star take turns singing on the ditty while Simpson shows off his guitar chops.
Earlier this year they were spotted in the studio together and now Cody Simpson has announced a duet album with his buddy Justin Bieber.
During an interview with the Sydney Daily Telegraph, the handsome Aussie musician confirmed the project, noting a November release date.
He could have his pick of any lady in the land, and Cody Simpson had a bit of a struggle categorizing three of his famous female friends while chatting with Blunt Talking.
The handsome singer was given the choice of "Eff, Marry, Kill" with three lovely ladies- Selena Gomez, Jennifer Lawrence and Kendall Jenner.
Proving that he's much more than just a pretty face with a killer voice, Cody Simpson just announced he's an official high school graduate.
The 17-year-old "Surfboard" singer graduated at the top of his class in Atlanta, Georgia and even got to address his classmates.
He's certainly proud of his toned physique and Cody Simpson posted a picture of his naked butt via Facebook and Instagram over the weekend.
The 17-year-old "Surfboard" singer posted the pic along with the message, "Free. throwback to Sunday morning on the coast after a big one. surfed out too. how bout that tan. taken by bae."
Clearly enjoying his celebrity status, Cody Simpson partied at the Hard Rock Hotel in Palm Springs this week.
The pop superstar rocked a boho ensemble in a flashy fedora and tank top, while showing off his buff shoulders.

Adult Residency Program Schedule
The adult neurology residency training schedule at UT Southwestern Medical Center represents the culmination of many years of refinement and incorporation of input from trainees. The schedule provides a balance of clinical work in a variety of practice settings, didactic instruction, and flexibility.
Training begins with a gradual introduction to the practice of neurology and culminates in increasing autonomy and responsibility. Our graduates are incredibly competent and confident. The schedule below represents an approximate schedule for residents starting the categorical program in 2012.
Postgraduate Year 1 – Medicine Internship
Residents spend their first year as an integrated member of the UT Southwestern Internal Medicine Residency Program. The PGY-1 year includes nine months of internal medicine services (general medicine, cardiology, medical ICU, geriatrics, diabetes consult service), one month of elective, and one month of emergency medicine. Throughout the PGY-1 year, neurology residents attend continuity clinic in the Department of Neurology. Residents quickly gain a firm foundation in general internal medicine and acute care.
June is the final month of the PGY-1 year and is a dedicated "Introduction to Neurology." This unique experience is devoted to education without major clinical responsibilities. Residents attend small group review sessions of neuroanatomy, neuropharmacology, and neuroradiology. They also get focused instruction in performing general and subspecialty neurological history and examinations, basic training in common neurology procedures, basic clinical neurophysiology, and physicianship. The remainder of the month is a clinical overview of subspecialty and general outpatient neurology with one-on-one interaction with faculty and senior neurology residents.
Postgraduate Year 2 – Introduction to Neurology
The focus of the PGY-2 year is direct care of hospitalized patients with neurologic disease. Residents spend approximately eight months on the neurology inpatient and consult services at the teaching hospitals. During these rotations, residents develop diagnostic skills and become familiar with management of acute neurologic issues under the supervision of senior residents and attending faculty. The year is rounded out with rotations in the neurocritical care service, epilepsy monitoring unit, and neuropathology. Outpatient training continues with weekly neurology continuity clinics where residents follow patients with a wide variety of disorders throughout the entire four years of training. This longitudinal perspective on disease patterns and management benefits both the house staff and patients.
A typical PGY-2 rotation schedule is listed below. Overnight call on the Parkland Memorial Hospital service is every five nights (during about 6 months of the year). Call responsibilities are taken as a team. A senior resident (night float) always takes in-house call with the junior resident to provide supervision and teaching. During most months, rotating interns and medical students work closely with the neurology resident. At Zale Lipshy University Hospital's Neuroscience Center, residents provide specialized care to patients with neurological illness. Overnight coverage at Zale Lipshy University Hospital is provided by night float and overnight call every seventh night. Residents take home call while on Dallas Veterans Affairs Medical Center consult service. There are no other call responsibilities.
Postgraduate Year 3 – Mastering your Skills
PGY-3 residents have a more diverse experience including three months with child neurology at Children's Medical Center and Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children. Subspecialty rotations with neuromuscular, movement disorders, and electroencephalography are scheduled, and elective rotations are available in a host of other areas. PGY-3 residents also participate in consultation services for psychiatry and inpatient neurology.
Residents may choose from a wide variety of clinical and research electives. Some electives are essential to the training of a well-rounded neurologist such as multiple sclerosis, sleep medicine, and neuroradiology. Other electives may be coordinated exclusively to meet the career goals or interests of one resident. Popular and unique electives at UT Southwestern include neurosonology, neuro-oncology, neuro-ophthalmology, and neuro-otology. Residents with academic interests may devote elective time to a clinical or basic science research project under the supervision of a faculty member. Residents on the research clinical scientist track will spend six months in the research laboratory.
There are no on-call responsibilities during outpatient rotations.
Postgraduate Year 4 – Becoming a Neurologist
The senior resident fills a major teaching and supervisory role and is essential to the education of medical students, interns, rotating residents from other programs, and junior neurology residents. The senior residents also learn to make appropriate triage and treatment decisions on acute patients. By the end of the PGY-4 year, the resident has become a fully competent neurologist.
The residents and faculty elect two PGY-4 residents to serve as Chief Resident. The Chief Resident assists with rotation and conference scheduling as well as representing the program on campus.
Flexible Training in Neurology
The ACGME allows and supports flexibility in neurology residency training programs. Our Residency Program allows residents to create an individualized program to achieve their career goals. The PGY-3 and PGY-4 year contain ten blocks (nine months) of flexible rotations including elective time and optional clinical rotations. Before the end of the PGY-2 year, residents can request a specific training "track" for the final two years of residency training.
For residents with basic science research interests, a research track schedule allows nine months of basic research during residency. This research track is available to residents with appropriate background and career goals. Residents with a goal of community-based private practice can follow a training track that includes an emphasis on a varied outpatient experience (including rotations with volunteer neurology faculty in community practices in Dallas and Austin). A vascular/hospitalist track, for residents interested in inpatient acute care neurology practice, includes additional rotations in inpatient consultation, several unique neurocritical care settings, training in neurosonology, as well as additional neuroradiology, neurosurgery, and neurointerventional experiences. Flexibility and abundant elective time allow all residents to develop their own training focus or acquire a diverse exposure to all neurological subspecialties.
Research Opportunities
UT Southwestern is a center of research excellence. Many of the Neurology and Neurotherapeutics faculty are not only outstanding teachers and clinicians, but also direct successful clinical or basic science research programs. Residents are required to participate in research at some level. Most perform short-term projects which do not require time away from the residency curriculum. Longer-term projects lasting several months can be accommodated during the residency by using elective time or a specified research track for clinician-scientists. Post-residency research fellowships are available at UT Southwestern in one of the clinical or basic neuroscience research laboratories.
Teaching Conferences
Daily neurology attending rounds are conducted on the inpatient and consult services. Grand Rounds are held every Wednesday at noon. In addition to the noon neurology residency didactic curriculum, teaching conferences include weekly neurophysiology case conferences, neuroradiology review conferences, case-vignette conference series, clinical neuroscience, and board review conference. One of the high points of the week is live patient-professor rounds conducted by Roger Rosenberg, M.D. An inpatient selected by the chief resident is examined by Dr. Rosenberg to highlight the historical and examination findings of interest, followed by a discussion of the diagnosis.
Subspecialty conferences include a weekly neuro-oncology tumor conference and brain cutting, and a series of weekly seminars including journal clubs, muscle and nerve biopsy conference, and EMG review.
An impressive array of established clinical electives are available. Residents work with experts using state-of-the-art tools in subspecialties of neurology or related fields including neuro-oncology, neuroimmunology (MS), neuro-ophthalmology, neuro-otology, sleep medicine, headache, autonomic disorders, behavioral neurology, spinal cord injury, neurorehabilitation, neuroradiology, interventional neuroradiology, neurosonology (carotid and transcranial doppler), or neurosurgery. Residents may also select additional experience in neuromuscular, movement disorders, epilepsy, or neurocritical care. Elective time can also be devoted to a research project under the supervision of research faculty.
Resident Evaluations
All residents receive formal constructive evaluations with escalating standards each year of their training. Live patient practical examinations are administered at least once each year with volunteer patients. During these "oral" examinations, two attendings observe the resident take a history, perform a neurologic examination, and discuss a differential diagnosis and work-up. These examinations help residents hone their clinical skills as well as fulfill the requirements for neurology board certification. In addition, all residents participate in the annual Residency In-Service Examination administered by the American Academy of Neurology. Outstanding performance is recognized each year at the annual Neurology Residency awards banquet.

COASTGUARD ROUNDUP: Ambulance crews asked for help rescuing a man with a head injury near Weymouth.
On Wednesday afternoon South Western Ambulance contacted Portland Coastguard asking for assistance with a man suffering a head injury at Ringstead.
Wyke Regis Coastguard Rescue Officers were sent but were stood down en-route after the casualty was safely recovered by ambulance personnel.
At 4.55pm, Grace, a 17ft angling vessel called Portland Coastguards requesting a tow back to West Bay after suffering engine failure south of Seatown.
The West Bay harbour launch responded and towed the vessel and its two occupants back to safety.
Just after 11pm Wyke Regis Coastguard Rescue Officers were asked to investigate a RIB craft that was floating in Weymouth Harbour and could be seen from the Operations room window.
The coastguards managed to snag it, drag it to the side, secure it alongside another vessel and establish that there was no life at risk. It is thought to have come untied from elsewhere in the harbour.

Ferredoxin fold
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In protein structure, a ferredoxin fold is a common α+β protein fold with a signature βαββαβ secondary structure along its backbone. Structurally, the ferredoxin fold can be regarded as a long, symmetric hairpin that is wrapped once around, so that its two terminal β-strands hydrogen-bond to the central two β-strands, forming a four-stranded, antiparallel β-sheet covered on one side by two α-helices.

RESIDENTS of a Victorian town polluted by smoke from a coal mine fire are pinning their hopes on a local member just added to state cabinet.
The fire at the Hazelwood open cut coal mine, near the town of Morwell in the Latrobe Valley, was brought under control at the weekend, but firefighters are still working around the clock to extinguish the blaze.
Morwell MP Russell Northe was appointed Minister for Energy and Resources in a state cabinet reshuffle on Thursday.
Voices of the Valley president Simon Ellis said Mr Northe was well placed to deal with the concerns of residents who have been living with heavy smoke for several weeks.
"The fire may be contained, but the impact on the ground is like a tsunami - thousands of people have fled Morwell, there is coal ash everywhere, schools and businesses are still closed," Mr Ellis said.
Mr Ellis said the government's response so far had been inadequate.
The state government this week announced an inquiry into the fire, to be headed by former Supreme Court Justice Bernard Teague, who led the Royal Commission into the Black Saturday bushfires.
Victorian Fire Services Commissioner Craig Lapsley visited schoolchildren at Morwell on Thursday.
Mr Lapsley said it was important to keep children updated on the work being done to put out the fire, which has been burning for over a month.
"For the kids that haven't been to school, for the kids that have been relocated, if they've been on respite with their parents ... it's all about their understanding really," he said.
Mr Lapsley said 200 firefighters per shift would work 24 hours a day, right through the weekend, as efforts to extinguish the blaze continue.

I'm Maddie. I'm 16 and from New York.
To anyone who received an email regarding A Secondhand Life,
It's the first and last. I'm not pestering for reviews, I just thought that after such a long time, I'd go back and see if anyone who at one point showed interest was willing to come back and read more.
Click here to read my first and only drabble!
It won second place in the Hufflepuff common room. Christmas-themed, post-DH, rated G. Features Albus, James, and Harry.
Wanna do me a favor? Got a myspace? Add Scarlet Thunder my band! If not just listen to our stuff. Thanks!
James laughed heartily. "Oh Lils..."
it wasn't a very long chapter, but the ending was very sweet and cute
Woah Lily is a little violent in this chapter! lol Keep up the good work!
It was really sweet the way they take such cute pics together! 10/10
It was cute. I liked the part about Sirius. Very ncie.
That was really sweet! Expecially when James went in the library. It showed James's playful side. 10/10
That was so beautiful. I liked this part: Nice, lovable, and the sexiest person at Hogwarts. I just thought it was hilarious.
That was really good. 10/10
This chapter was so sad -- I felt like crying! There was one quote I did like: James rubbed his face in slow motion. Lily fainted. Well, that part I know, I caught her. Also, I think I'm just starting to realize this: James charmed the flowers so when she smells them she remembers things? If I'm right, or wrong, sorry I'm a little slow at these things. :-/
It's so romantic! Im so sorry. Never be sorry for being sad. I just thought that was soooo sweet. The part about Sirius was hilarious. Keep writing, you are an amazing author. Your fanfic is brilliant. I can't wait for the next chapters!
Haha, this is a really good idea. Nice story.
Author's Response: Thank\'ee!
Cute! I particularily liked how Ginny and Harry shared something on the Matador, and the Ferris Wheel. This story, however, would do much better in the Harry/Ginny section, as it only had hints of Ron/Hermione and focused mainly on Harry and Ginny. Good job writing!
Haha, I just loved Sirius here. He was so hilarious.
Author's Response: Me too! Thanx!
I'll admit, the rape did upset me a little, but I was quite pleased with the ending of the chapter. It was done quite carefully and correctly -- very well done.
Author's Response: Thank-you for reviewing. I'm glad the rape upset you. I'd be more frightened if it hadn't. Something terrible had to happen to destroy so many lives and strong relationships. In my view, rape is that terrible. It is my challenge as a writer to show what has happened, convey how awful it is, but not get bogged down in the gory details. This sort of feedback from my readers is just the thing I need to know that I've succeeded, so, thanks!
That was really sad :'( But a very nice story!! :)
That was sweet. Especially the ending. Nice idea to bring them together.
Aww, that's sad. But it's a good one-shot.
Author's Response: Thank you.
It's different, but it's funny. I like it.
Author's Response: Thank you!
that was flippin sweet!!!! it was a bit ooc for harry, b/c he's not very romantic n i doubt he can play n sing (lol). anyways, it's on my favorites list!!
haha flippen awesome my favorite chapter yet!!!!
ahhh i laughed so hard at the naming....gilmore girls is an awesome show!!!!

There is a series (12-15) of free (non-credit) seminars at City College re starting up any small business (many people there want internet of course).Ā I tried a couple -- you should have an Idea first.

PG does give a "summer school" course and $5000 bucks + free legal / accounting set up. Again you need to have your Idea - and ready to go I mean ready.

Do you have an Idea which you have in hand.

Brian

p.s. A lot of people want to do a Web App but IMHO you need the App first and then you Webify it. Usually, unless it is something really inventive like the first Wiki even then you need Content.

Teenager Liam Knight walked slowly and a little shakily into the courtroom with the help of a black walking stick. He looked at the two youths sitting in the dock and sat down with his parents by his side.
Fourteen months ago, he was in hospital with a steel bar piercing his skull - an injury one of his doctors did not expect him to survive.
On Tuesday, the 18-year-old took another step in his recovery by facing in the Downing Centre District Court the two young men who allegedly inflicted the injury.
''Liam Knight's head injury was severe and has resulted in a permanent brain injury,'' Crown prosecutor Huw Baker said in his opening address to the trial of Jimmy Angelo Tupou, 19, and another youth who cannot be named.
The prosecutor said the young man continued to suffer from epilepsy, loss of motor function and ''cognitive impairments that will affect him for the rest of his life''.
The court heard that, some time before 11pm on January 11 last year, the two accused and three others arrived at the Forestville house where Liam's friend Harry Staples was celebrating his 18th birthday.
The five were told they were not welcome, but the unnamed youth allegedly jumped a fence and shouted to his mates ''come on, we can come through this way''.
Harry Staples' father, Phillip, shone a torch on the youth and said ''mate, you're not invited, you have to leave''.
The unnamed youth allegedly swore at Mr Staples, pushed him in the chest, and then punched one of the party guests in the face.
The Crown alleges that the youth then climbed onto the roof of the shed in the corner of the yard and began throwing building materials piled up there. By this time, it was alleged, Mr Tupou had come over the fence and was also throwing the building materials.
The court heard that a three-metre steel bar generally used to reinforce concrete struck Liam in the right hand side of the head, piercing his skull and going out the other side.
The court heard that ambulance officers sedated the young man, but had to wait for firefighters to arrive before taking him to hospital so the large piece of steel protruding from his head could be cut. A few hours later in Royal North Shore Hospital the teenager had an emergency bilateral craniectomy.
The court heard that early the next morning as Liam Knight's brother Todd was driving home from the hospital, he saw a young man lying asleep at a bus stop.
Thinking it might have been one of those involved in the alleged attack he approached with a friend and asked ''Are you OK - what are you doing here?'' The young man was Mr Tupou. Todd Knight called the police and Mr Tupou was arrested soon after. His co-accused was arrested a few days later.
On Tuesday, the unnamed youth pleaded not guilty to causing grievous bodily harm with intent but guilty to the lesser charge of recklessly causing grievous bodily harm without intent. This was rejected by the Crown. He pleaded guilty to five other charges over the incident.
Mr Tupou pleaded not guilty to all the charges against him.
