Conference Grant
Interdisciplinary Engagement
Are you interested in seeking knowledge in other disciplines and helping VASTA build organizational linkages and enhance voice/speech practice? Through our VASTA VISION 2013 initiative of Transformational Engagement, The VASTA Engagement Committee (formerly the Outreach Committee) is offering grants to assist with the expenses of conference registration, travel and/or housing. Grants can range from $250 to $2,500.
How To Apply
Write a letter addressing the following:
• Your interest in the subject area
• How you anticipate the new knowledge will enhance your work
• How this connection to another discipline might ignite interdisciplinary and trans-disciplinary exploration in our membership
• Why you think you're a good candidate for the grant.
Include a thorough budget to the proposal (conference registration, travel, housing) with a clearly indicated final request amount and a reliable mailing address. If your proposal is selected, you may be asked to purchase VASTA merchandise (t-shirt), so please take this possible purchase into consideration and include the amount in your budget. This purchase will be reimbursed in your funding.
Send this letter to Julia Guichard at email@example.com who will send applications to the Engagement Committee.
The application deadline is six (6) weeks before the particular conference's registration due date; however, funds are limited and the earlier in the year the application is received, the greater the chances for funding.
Awardees will be required to share their findings and experiences with the VASTA membership through a newsletter article, and a workshop, video, conference presentation or other appropriate presentation intended to build bridges between VASTA and other disciplines.
Funding is intended for full conference participation in areas outside of voice/speech training, not for individual workshop participation or certifications (refer to VASTA's Dorothy Mennen Research/Development Award for these funding opportunities).
Conferences might include but are certainly not limited to the following disciplines and organizations:
· Medical and Voice Science (Society of Neuroscience, The National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM)
· Linguistics
· IPA (International Conference on Phonetic Science, Glasgow 2015)
· Somatic Disciplines
· Body-Mind Centering
· Arts and Athletes
· Linguistics
· Sociolinguistics
· Institute of Coaching
· Arts and Civic Engagement (Network of Ensemble Theaters, Imaging America, Citizen University, Animating Democracy)
· Arts Leadership (The Center for Creative Leadership, The Greenleaf Center for Servant Leadership, The Fetzer Institute)
· Arts Advocacy and Integration (SNAAP, A2RU, TCG, Americans for the Arts)

Husband of 2 weeks has cheats :-( devastated(106 Posts)
Hi there,
I'm writing, not for sympathy, but advice on how to deal with a situation .
Me and my husband have been together 7 years and got married 4 weeks ago now, and we have a little daughter of 6 months, a happy home, and a importable life.
2 weeks ago I go onto our family computer, and find within his e-mails messages from a woman stating "last nig was amazing, I can't wait until next time" as we'll as similar replies from my husband. I was go smacked and confronted him staright away, not in a shouting way, but I was surprised at how calm I talked about it.
He told me he did it because we've not been the same since having a child, and we've been pushing each other away. He told me he paid this woman (an escort he seeked out online) £50 and mt her at a cheap hotel for an hour, and that was it.
I emailed this woman, and spoke with her on the whole with my husband present and demanded to know everything.
She told me he booked a posh hotel with afour poster bed & paid £250 for the night with her & she wanted more..
He had told her he wasn't married, had no kids, lied about his occupation & said he had so much money he didn't now what to do with it ll.
2 weeks prior to this, he'd been on a course with work & our daughter was ill then, & he was short with me on the phone the whole time when I was crying I opulent cope alone, and now know those 2 weeks he was calling her for hours on end, it makes me so so sad.
The upshot is, that I've oven him one last chance ( he's done this sort of thing before when I was pregnant, but didn't carry it through- I found the messages prior to anything happening) but what I'm finding so difficult is trusting him, stopping thinking about it etc.
Or sex life has improved since, and we've been making more efforts etc. he's doing morefornour daughter ( he hadn't seemed fussed previously & I was buying her everything etc.)
He's been treated good at home from the moment we met. I run his baths, set his clothes out, support him in his hobbies, work etc. I cook, clean...he doesn't have to lift a finger. I also have a good sex drive, so it can't be that I'm frigid.
I almost feel jealous of the night he gave her. He said he was trying to relive our wedding night, as we had a room with a 4 poster bed, but I fell asleep on the wedding night because I'd been up so so early etc, so I didn't put out.
Please help me think of a way back to happy. I'm even considering booking a male escort myself, just to get even, and then we can start a fresh from there. E're supposed to be moving house this week for a fresh start, but it feels horrible with this hanging over me, the worry, the doubts, and e sad hurt feeling ebbing away within.
What can I possibly do? Xx
" I put everyone before myself"
Time to put yourself first because no-one else will. This is your life and no-one is going to look after your best interests other than you. His Dad is already giving him permission to shag around and, if you don't kick him out, you're essentially giving him the same message. 'I don't matter'.
There's no good next step from here. Whether he stays or goes your life will never be the same. But if he goes at least you can hold your head up and know that you retained your self-respect.
You sound really like the playdate nightmare woman. Are you related?
OP did you post about his behaviour before your wedding? It sounds familiar.
He is an utter, utter shit and you and your DC deserve much better.
Your dd is only 6 months old. Of course she loves her father but do you want her to grow up thinking it's normal for a husband to cheat?
He has broken his vows and his family.
Your dd is alresady growing in a 'broken home', a home broken by her father not you.
To save such a marriage, he would need to really do a hell of a lot of regain your trust (Because that's completely normal you can't stop thinking about it! A very natural reaction) and for you to stop thinking about it.
Now I would like to know. What is he doing to regain your trust? What is he doing to prove his really sorry and it was wrong to go and see an OW? What sort of 'big changes' is he doing?
Fwiw, I wouldn't have been able to have sex with a man who had just told me he was cheating on me tbh. Actually I would have expected him to propose a time wo sex until things have calmed down and he had proven he really wanted to make things better.
Ask him to leave
Get a dr appointment and get checked for STIs
Make an appointment with a lawyer for a devioce on grounds of cheating (you only have 6 months for this or you can no longer use that and have to wait two years or list 5 unreasonable acts by him)
Tell your family and friends what he did and ask for support thru this hard time.
I'm not afraid of going it alone if he fails his last chance, nor am I in doubt that anybody else would love me, but I love this man, I really do & so does dd. I love the man
If he doesn't do this again it will be truly astonishing.
All the best OP.
Sounds like you are going through "hysterical bonding" rather than love.
You've been given great advice but it boils down to this- he doesn't love you as much as you think you love him. It's possible to be a great Dad but shit husband and its better if your dd doesn't see the shit husband bit.
Why are you tolerating this shit from him? You have a daughter-are you happy to bring her up thinking that the behaviour he demonstrates to you is acceptable in any way???
Oh & no, she definitely is not a prostitute
So what is the truth OP?
He paid £50 for an hour or £250 for a whole night?
A prostitute thought he was amazing and wanted to do it again An OW may want that. A prostitute just wants the money.
A prostitute wouldn't give a shit he was married and talk to you or cry.
He has done it before. No consequences then just like now so he will do it again.
He spent how much while you are skint and putting everyone first.
If you are determined to stay with this man you are going to have to accept he will sleep around. He may use prostitutes.
Please use condoms and get regular STI checks.
Also please consider he may catch something through oral sex and you and your DD will be at risk as he continues.
I bet you said that it was his 'last chance' when he was messaging prostitutes while you were pregnant.
He knows his 'last chances' are infinite but even so, he'll get a bit better at hiding his tracks and stashing money away for his extra-marital sex habit. You'll be poor as well as cheated on.
If you posted this thread for advice on how to brainwash yourself into trusting this bloke, you came to the wrong place. The only people you'll get any advice from of that kind will be doormats who are putting up with the same or the usual tossers who invade any prostitute thread. I expect they'll be along tonight at some unearthly hour which is when they usually strike, so expect a few men can't help their urges type posts, or a few pats on the head for being a good girl and realising the error of your ways by even dreaming to think that women are human beings worthy of respect.
Not posted before
He found her on a site called ' local shags' I've seen her profile :-(
You may love the man but he doesn't love you enough to keep his cock and his credit card in his pants... This is only the last chance until the next one, isn't it?
I wouldn't let my daughter see me putting up with that sort of behaviour. Don't kid yourself that this is a one off or that she won't notice.
The reason you are finding it hard to trust him is he is COMPLETELY untrustworthy.
You run his baths, dress him and do everything in the home for him - well he has it made doesn't he? He's happy to have a skivvy at home, who will repeatedly fall for his lies and give him "2nd" chances while he spends family cash fucking prostitutes, or renting fancy hotels to spend time with OW.
He's not changing - are you mummy2lola?
You need to start putting yourself and child first. LTB - he will never change.
BTW the bit about the prostitute being devastated is bizarre. I too think it's an OW he is meeting with rather than a prostitute.
Local shags? Oh that's just lovely.
He will not change. Unless he decides to.
And why should he?? YOU are bending over backwards to do everything for him. His life is just fine and dandy (apart from having been found out).
And yes, I agree with what others has said: from what you are saying your 'home' is already 'broken' (hate the phrase btw).
Take some time to recover from the shock and consider what you want the rest of your life and your daughter's life to be like.
You're right cogito. This is the very last chance & there will be no more, that's it. No more lies & big changes will have to happen. My condition of this new chance is marraige counselling.... He needs it and I need it .
He's in the armed forces...
I know it's broken. I want so desperately to seek professional help so we can fix it.
The ow was found on an Internet escort site for our local area- I'm just confused as to why he needed to call her for hours on end etc.. Making promises to be together- she fell for his lies & was going to stop the £250 payment he'd made with view of a future together.
He's been treated good at home from the moment we met. I run his baths, set his clothes out, support him in his hobbies, work etc. I cook, clean...he doesn't have to lift a finger. I also have a good sex drive, so it can't be that I'm frigid
Stop doing all that or better show him the door.
I am having a hell of a job typing due to the fact that the bullshit alarm is sounding so loudly that I have to cover my ears.
He thinks it's OK to spend £250 on a night with a tart because he wants to recreate his wedding night?
Said tart is devastated to find that he is married and has a child
And you are responding to this by waiting on him hand and foot and sleeping with him.
Boy do we ever need a bullshit emoticon.
I am happy to present you with my first MN LTB. Please make use of it to remove this lying disgusting cheating knobhead from your life.
And while you're at it, ring your father-in-law and tell him to fuck straight off with his mysoginistic shite about 'this is what men do'.
Have some self respect for God's sake.
This man has no respect for you or your daughter, or your marriage. I think you need to leave now before you allow him to hurt you further - because he can and will.
If you can't do it for you, do it for your daughter who will grow up to allow men to do the same thing to her if you don't stand firm now and get rid.
So sorry.
Your child will grow up in a broken home whether you leave him or not. Your marriage IS broken. He did that. Not you. You will never be able to trust him because he is a liar and a cheat and he has done this before and will do so again because he can. He knows the only consequence is you ranting and crying for a few days, then he will get more sex, better care while you try to work even harder to keep him sweet. He is in this way rewarded, so of course he will do it again. Next time, you may even wipe his arse in an effort to sweeten him even more. Please dont be a mug. You cant change him, but you can change your life!

High level programs keep coming in to watch class of 2018 wing Torrence Watson. The athletic Watson has a high upside because of his combination of size and athleticism, and college programs are beginning to make him a priority recruit.
"The year has been going pretty good," said Watson of his junior season. "I've been working on scoring at all three levels. I think I have been more consistent every game."
When it comes to his recruitment, Watson says things are really heating up with a lot of college coaches coming to see him.
"Xavier came in (Friday), Butler was in (Saturday), Creighton, Marquette, there have just been a lot of coaches coming in," explained Watson. "Also I have visited Kansas State and Iowa State as well as Creighton."
About the visit to Iowa State, Watson said, "I liked the atmosphere at Iowa State. It showed a lot because it was during break, so most of the students weren't there, but it was still a live gym."
Also Creighton has been one of the most active in recruiting Watson, and he continues to hear a lot from the Bluejays.
"I have a good relationship with Creighton," said Watson of Creighton. "I talk to Coach (Steve) Lutz every day and Coach (Greg) McDermott weekly, so I have formed a good relationship with them."
Butler boss Chris Holtmann was in attendance seeing Watson at the Bank of O'Fallon Shootout, and Watson has a good relationship with the Big East school.
"I visited Butler as well before the season and it is a good place," said Watson of the Bulldogs. "I was able to eat with all of the coaches, and it felt like me getting to know them more than a recruiting trip."
One of Butler's Big East rivals, Xavier is also beginning to pick things up.
"I haven't heard too much from Xavier," noted Watson. "They contacted me before the season started, but not much recently. I am starting to build a relationship with Coach (Travis) Steele."
Also the Marquette Golden Eagles are a major player for Watson, and he hopes to visit the program soon.
"I have a good relationship with Coach (Chris) Carrawell," said Watson of Marquette. "I am trying to get there soon to see a game and see what the atmosphere is like."
While Watson is taking a close look at a lot of schools, he says not to expect a decision soon.
"I will probably narrow things down in the next month, but I plan to take visits in the fall and decide after those," explained Watson.

Sydney: Former Pakistan cricket captain and fast bowler Wasim Akram has described Australian cricketers as hyprocrites and 'cry-babies' for whingeing about racism during the just concluded Sydney Test.
Identifying them as the game's worst sledgers, Akram said: "I have played a large part of my cricket against the Aussies. Sometimes they said stuff, sometimes we did, and then we moved on. We did not behave like cry-babies and drag it to the officials. They [Australia] do it constantly and much more than anyone else, so, how can they go out and complain about other teams, I don't know."
Indian great Kapil Dev said the Indian side was the most gentle in the world and the Harbhajan verdict was at odds with that.
"It is surprising and unfair," he said.
The Australian team's desire to seize the high moral sporting ground yet play in a manner that betrayed that spirit was firing the Indians' anger, said respected Indian commentator Harsha Bhogle.
"I have known Anil [Kumble] now for 18 years and I have never seen him as worked up as this. He felt he made an agreement in good faith [with Ricky Ponting] and he (Ponting) has not kept that agreement," Bhogle said, adding "Australia is now trying to say, 'We uphold the spirit of the game', but it is a very unusual spirit of the game. If you are upholding this spirit you cannot appeal for something when you know a batsman is not out. You cannot stand there when you have hit the cover off the ball."
The Sydney Morning Herald quoted Cricket Australia CEO James Sutherland as saying that the spirit of cricket pledge had not been tarnished and diluted by recent performances.
"We're supportive of the Australian team and the way they play and this tough and uncompromising way is the way Australian teams have always played," he said.
"We always go out there and try and play fairly and squarely, always try and play tough competitive cricket and that is the competitive spirit," Australian fast bowler Brett Lee said.
The Australian players' union said the Australians were condemned for their success. "No doubt there is a tall-poppy syndrome here," Australian Cricketers Association chief executive Paul Marsh said. "They definitely play the game hard, but they rarely cross the line …"
Former Somerset player and well-known cricket writer Peter Roebuck has said that Ponting must be sacked as captain of the Australian cricket team.
"If Cricket Australia cares a fig for the tattered reputation of our national team in our national sport, it will not for a moment longer tolerate the sort of arrogant and abrasive conduct seen from the captain and his senior players over the past few days," Roebuck said.
"Beyond comparison, it was the ugliest performance put up by an Australian side for 20 years. The only surprising part of it is that the Indians have not packed their bags and gone home. There is no justice for them in this country, nor any manners," he added.
Roebuck said it was not only the reputation of these cricketers that has suffered, but Australia itself has been embarrassed.

It was easy to see how frustrated Cary Williams was just five nights ago.
Facing a pass-happy New England offense, Williams spent nearly the entire night being targeted by Patriots quarterback Tom Brady and spent much of the night searching for his opposing receiver.
He was frustrated. The talking heads called him out on his lackluster play.
On Thursday night, Williams quieted his critics.
With the Ravens leading by six points in the final minute of the third quarter, Cleveland was driving toward midfield, when Williams noticed Browns quarterback Brandon Weeden eyeing up an out route to the left sideline.
Williams saw the play developing. He jumped the route and stuck his hands out in front of the intended receiver. Sixty seconds later, Williams was in the end zone, celebrating his first career interception. It was a play that put the Ravens ahead by two scores, and proved to be the key touchdown in the Ravens' 23-16 win over the Browns.
"It was weird because when I had it in my hands, it felt like I didn't have it because it was so wet," Williams said. "But once I had it I looked forward and say daylight. I just ran it in."
On a rain-soaked night in Baltimore, it was a key defensive play - a signature in Ravens folklore - that turned the tide for the home team. While the Ravens' offense put up some impressive numbers, including 356 yards from Joe Flacco and 131 yards from Anquan Boldin, the production didn't always translate to the scoreboard. In the end, however, it didn't matter.
"Sometimes you're going to win and you're going to look good. Other times you're going to win and you're not going to look so good," coach John Harbaugh said. "But you find a way to win, and that's what we did tonight."
Thursday night's game was a return to normalcy, both for the Ravens and the NFL itself. With the lockout between the league and its officials resolved, the "regular referees" returned to action Thursday night, which made for a comfortable and smoother pace. That, combined with the Ravens' aggressive defensive approach which tallied two takeaways and a defensive score, made the victory feel like an old fashioned Baltimore football game.
"Those [refs] were pros," Harbaugh said. "I didn't agree on every call out there tonight, but those guys were excellent and did a great job."
With the win, the Ravens move to 3-1 at the quarter pole, while the Browns remain winless at 0-4. For Williams and Co., 3-1 is nice, but the season still has a long way to go.
"We're 3-1 and we won the first quarter of the season but it's just the first quarter," Williams said. "We've still got to go out and try and win the next three quarters."

Jon Shain (born Jonathan Bruce Shain, November 18, 1967, Haverhill, Massachusetts) is a Jewish American folk musician, guitarist, singer-songwriter and recording artist. Since 1986, he has been based in Durham, North Carolina.
Shain has produced several solo albums, and has also recorded with the bands 'WAKE' and 'Flyin' Mice'. Since 1988, he has performed live with Jorma Kaukonen[1], David Grisman, and others. Shain played electric guitar as part of North Carolina blues great Richard "Big Boy" Henry's backing band in the 1980s.[2]
Early life
Shain was born into a Jewish family, the eldest of three children to Steven and Carol Shain, who were also Haverhill, Massachusetts natives. His father and grandfather operated a small but successful textile dyehouse.
Shain got his first acoustic guitar after being influenced by watching childhood friend Fran Cleary play a cheap Univox electric model. Things went poorly, as within a short time, he accidentally broke the rented instrument in half. At age 12 he started up again with another borrowed model, this time showing more serious interest and taking lessons.
For high school, Shain attended Governor Dummer Academy (GDA), in Byfield, Massachusetts, where he met up with other aspiring musicians among its small student body. Almost immediately, Shain joined a student rock band called Positive Feedback, where he played electric rhythm guitar. At age 14, he was the youngest member of the band, and it was here that he gained his first experiences on stage. The following year, Shain and childhood friend Jim Barr, along with fellow GDA students FJ Ventre and John Miller, formed another rock cover band called The Partisans (the band's name unknowingly matched an already established punk band from England). This experience further sharpened his skills and confidence as a live performer, as he was responsible for most of the arrangements performed by the band. The Partisans achieved minor notoriety throughout the region, playing dances and private parties during Shain's remaining years in high school. Eventually mixing in originals by Shain and Barr, The Partisans live set mainly consisted of classic rock staples from Chuck Berry, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Clash, R.E.M., and U2.
Shain graduated from GDA in 1985.
College years
Shain attended Duke University in Durham, North Carolina, where he majored in history. It was during this time that Shain was introduced to the folk music of the region. In addition to playing in a frat-rock cover band, The Blind Mice, Shain began to research and play Piedmont Blues. Shain joined The Slewfoot Blues Band, led by Mickey "Slewfoot" McLaughlin and "Sleepy" Tom Forsythe. Through Slewfoot, Shain met NC blues artists such as Big Boy Henry, John Dee Holeman, Lightnin' Wells, and jazz pianist Brother Yusef Salim. Shain also took opportunity of Duke's great jazz program, studying one semester with saxophonist Paul Jeffery, a veteran of Thelonious Monk's group. Shain graduated from Duke in the summer of 1989, and immediately began pursuing a career in music.
Professional career
In the spring of 1989, Shain and bassist John Whitehead formed a blues-rock duo and named it Flyin' Mice. They began to play shows at local clubs and festivals in The Carolinas and Virginia. Catching the ear of soundman and recording engineer Charles Jones, Flyin' Mice was signed to Jones' fledgling independent label Dr. Lime Records. The Mice expanded to a trio with the addition of drummer Mark Simonsen. In 1992, John Whitehead left the band and was replaced by bassist Aaron Oliva and Ben Saffer on guitar and banjo. Flyin' Mice earned the tag "psychedelic bluegrass" due to its incorporation of vintage bluegrass influences into its jam-rock performance style. This incarnation of the band gigged steadily up and down the East Coast until the band's breakup in 1996.
In the spring of 1996, Shain and Simonsen started a new group called WAKE with Kirsten O'Rourke Simonsen on vocals and Stu Cole on bass. In 1997, Cole left to join Squirrel Nut Zippers and he was replaced by Darrell Dixon on bass and John Currie on guitar. WAKE leaned more towards an alt-country sound. WAKE broke up in early 1998.
In the fall of 1998, Shain and Simonsen began work on what would become Jon Shain's first solo album, Brand New Lifetime, which ranged from the alt-country of WAKE to a more stripped down re-discovery of Shain's acoustic blues background. Shain began to play shows solo and with his new group, The Jon Shain Trio - composed of FJ Ventre on bass, John Currie on dobro and guitar, and Bill Newton on harmonica. This group has stayed together the longest of any of shain's musical associations. Shain has recorded several critically acclaimed albums on his own Flyin' Records and continues to tour regularly.

Music By: Hoagy Carmichael, Mitchell Parish
TOP 20 Popular songs from films where this soundtrack is played
Star dust lyricsAnd now the purple dusk of twilight time
Steals across the meadows of my heart
High up in the sky the little stars climb
Always reminding me that were apart
You wander down the lane and far away
Reed full lyrics me a song that will not die
Love is now the stardust
Of yesterday
The music
Of the years
Gone by
Sometimes I wonder why I spend
The lonely nights
Dreaming of a song.
The melody haunts my reverie
And I am once again with you.
When our love was new, and each kiss an inspiration.
But that was long ago, and now my consolation
Is in the stardust of a song.
Beside the garden wall, when stars are bright
You are in my arms
The nightingale tells his fairy tale
Of paradise where roses grew.
Though I dream in vain, in my heart you will remain
My stardust melody
The memory of loves refrain.

You could have a look at some of the other converters (gmshToFoam, netgenNeutralToFoam etc.) and modify the one that fits your problem best.

George Whitefield was the preeminent evangelist of the Great Awakening, and arguably the best-known figure in eighteenth-century Britain and America. Whitefield's fame has receded in the centuries since his death in 1770, and has certainly been surpassed by Jonathan Edwards, the Great Awakening's leading pastor-theologian. A consistent advocate of Reformed theology and perhaps the most accomplished orator in evangelical history, Whitefield deserves to be known widely among Christians today.Download all PDF's
It would be hard to overstate George Whitefield's significance in the history of Christianity since the Reformation. He was the most celebrated pastor of the First Great Awakening of the 1730s and 1740s, and was the best known person in America and Britain before the American Revolution (best known perhaps aside from the king of England). He is arguably one of the two most influential evangelists, along with Billy Graham, of the past three centuries.
Critics have always accused Whitefield of teaching shallow theology. In fact, the attacks on Whitefield sound a great deal like those on famous TV preachers today-all style and no substance, they say. Even as sympathetic an observer as 19th-century biographer J. C. Ryle said that Whitefield's printed sermons come off as a "mingle-mangle" with few "striking thoughts" or "new exhibitions of gospel doctrine."
Christian biographers are always tempted to avoid the less attractive aspects of their subject's character. George Whitefield himself recognized this tendency, noting how some biographies of Christian heroes "have given us the bright, but not the dark side of their character. This, I think, proceeded from a kind of pious fraud, lest mentioning persons faults should encourage others in sin."

Social Concept is a simple theory that everyone encounters, but they just do not realize. It is the image everyone sees themselves as. There are distinct theories to the different aspects of social concept, but always it is how you view yourself. Although, how you view yourself can be based off of other peoples opinions of you and who you aim to be. Self image is not always who you actually are though because some people perceive they are a better person than they are, inflated self image, or they believe they are worse than they actually are by exaggerating weaknesses, negative self image. Self-esteem and self worth are parts of social concept which can be heavily influenced by the environment around you. Additionally, someone's personality can change when they are around others due to wanting to be a better version of themselves. Self Concept is how you perceive yourself whether it be physically or mentally.
This year has changed me as a person in many ways. My self concept was just developing strongly in the ninth grade and by now my self concept is probably going to remain the same and only change slightly in years to come. School has always been of value to me, but this year I appreciated it even more. No one could tell I have been more appreciative because my never ending procrastination, complaining, and attitude towards schoolwork, but I honestly do. I have always had the belief that if you put in hard work then your results will be favorable. That is not always the case. Generally hard work equals great results but teachers grading work and marking mistakes that are not logical to you or putting in much effort into relationships and having them end make this idea seem questionable. Every teacher and person heard discussing high school describe how it prepares you for the future by the classes you take. Although grades are highly important to colleges and personal standards, the interactions between peers during high school is one of the most important aspects. It helps you discover who you are and your values based on how you interact with others. I have learned this year that even though good grades are beneficial, they are no where near to standard I placed them at in my life and self worth. This realization I had for my self concept opened my eyes to be a little less stressed. Likewise, most stress placed on myself is because of my personal actions. This school year has helped me reflect on myself as a student and a person. I have matured in many ways but I'm still discovering who I want to be so there are still immature and inappropriate moments. My self concept will change in the future, but high school will be one of the most influential times of my life. Early college and the vision with college, including taking college classes, will mold my future positively, but as for everything else in my life we will just have to see how it influences my self concept.

And then, my series came to a rather abrupt halt before I reached number 1 for reasons I won't go into here (one for another time!). It's been playing on my mind ever since, and for that reason I'm really pleased that this month's Qatar link-up has given me a great excuse to finally get around to writing this post!
For anyone reading that is familiar with the Doha restaurant scene, it is probably unsurprising that I've chosen the iconic Nobu at the Four Seasons Hotel as the winner of my absolute favourite fine dining restaurant in Doha. But what makes this restaurant so special? Let's break it down.
Stunning architecture and interiors
From the modern tri-level shell-like building, to the contemporary interiors which utilise materials, depth and texture in clever ways, this building is as aesthetically pleasing inside as it is out.
Location location location
On its own private piece of land which branches out from the grounds of the luxurious Four Seasons Doha, the restaurant is the perfect vantage point from which to take in the panoramic views of the Arabian Gulf in one direction and the bright lights of West Bay in the other.
Food that's a little bit special
It's difficult to stand out in a city of world class restaurants, but stand out Nobu certainly does. Some favourite dishes of ours include the world renowned black cod, steeped in the most deliciously sweet and heady miso, the crisp Rock Shrimp Tempura with the creamiest Ponzu sauce, the succulent wagyu gyoza, the delicious (but disappointingly tiny) lobster wasabi tacos and the Chilean Seabass with Dashi Ponzu. But let's face it, every single dish on that menu is perfectly crafted and delicious.
NB. I am referring to the old menu. Since my last visit, Nobu has released a brand new menu. Please refer to their website for details.
Night life and romance
Of course, Nobu is much more than just a restaurant. On the top floor is the mother of all rooftop bars; the perfect place for an apéritif before a romantic date, or a cheap option for happy hour with friends - both of which can be enjoyed while taking in that killer view.
Celebrity prowess which is taking the world by storm
Spear-headed by the famous Chef Nobuyaku ('Nobu') Matsuhisa and co-owned by none other than Hollywood's Robert De Niro, Nobu is taking over the culinary world. From London to Malibu; Hong Kong to the Bahamas, the restaurant is popping up in every city to see and be seen.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Trucks and Trailers' started by KrayzKajun, Jul 10, 2012.
I'd get a diesel, no matter what..
If I were you, I'd be looking for a diesel utility body..
Gas, for sure.
I've been really looking at the utility body trucks now.
Posted via Mobile Device
I'm thinking about getting the 96' with the diesel and putting an 8ft utility body on it. Found a utility body for $500 on craigslist, and figure I can prolly get the truck for around $1500. So for $2k I could a pretty good landsacping/irrigation truck.
Posted via Mobile Device
If it was me I would buy the gas engine.I have a 07 dually duramax,but always seem to be in my 99 2500.I even seem to pull my 27' gooseneck with the 99 way more often than with the newer diesel.
Well the gas truck sold. So the search continues. I am going look at an 01' F250 reg cab w/ utility bed, 5.4L V8, 146k miles, for $3100.
Posted via Mobile Device
If you are set on buying a f250 I would try and find a v10 because it gets the same mileage as 5.4 but with alot more power which will be appreciated if towing heavy loads.I personally have had better luck with Chevrolets in that year range.My 99 with 350 has 285,000 and only thing replaced is brakes in last 4 years but we all have different preferences.
lawnhoppers, its funny you say that about the V10. i found this truck forsale yesterday on my way home.
F250, V10 gas motor, 140k miles guy wants $2400.
Reading between the lines I say Gas not Diesel and this is WHY. First Louisiana is Flat Land. Second Open Trailers are easier to pull. That means there is no advantage in paying the Extra maintenance cost of a Diesel. Add in you already have a Dually for any heavy hauling.
In Edit: I would love the find a 4.3 V 6 in a C2500. I need the weight carrying for spray tanks. But not the heavy pulling power here in Flat land.
Have you thought about a F-350 with a mason body? I know that you have your Walker mower and that would make it easy for hauling grass clippings along with other landscape jobs.

"The Jones Act" refers to maritime laws enacted more than 95 years ago within the Merchant Marine Act of 1920, and specifically to its constraints on the shipment of goods between U.S. ports. Although once a cornerstone of American maritime policy, the Act is now increasingly seen as anachronistic and outdated.
The Jones Act generally forbids vessels from providing any part of the transportation of merchandise by land and water between points in the U.S. unless those vessels are domestically built, owned and operated by American citizens. Stated more simply, the Act essentially prohibits foreign vessels from engaging in U.S. domestic commerce.
The Jones Act restrictions apply to the entire U.S., including our largest island territories and possessions (e.g., Puerto Rico and Guam).
The Jones Act also provides that merchandise transported in violation of its rules is subject to seizure and forfeiture. U.S. Customs and Border Protection Service is primarily responsible for enforcing the Act. Additional enforcement and regulatory authority is also vested with the U.S. Coast Guard and Maritime Administration. These agencies aggressively enforce the Act to prevent use of foreign vessels in domestic trade.
The 1920 Jones Act was not the first instance of protection for U.S. domestic shipping. In fact, it generally restates policy that can be traced to the first session of Congress in 1789-90. The present Jones Act was adopted, and continues to be enforced, to "encourage the development of an American merchant marine, for both national defense and commercial purposes." Not surprisingly, the Act is championed by domestic shipping and labor interests. However, while some in the domestic maritime industry may like the Jones Act, a growing number of others, especially bulk shippers and citizens of non-contiguous states, are increasingly concerned that Jones Act costs are being disproportionately borne both shippers and consumers.
U.S. shippers have found that the availability of Jones Act tankers is limited and the cost of constructing Jones Act-compliant vessels to be extraordinarily high. These costs have increased the prices of transportation and make it difficult to efficiently serve America's own markets. Highlighting this issue, in 2013 Bloomberg News noted that the cost "to charter a Jones Act tanker is up 87 percent over the past year and a half, to a record of more than $85,000 a day." Bloomberg also cited sales data placing the cost of building a vessel in the U.S. at close to five times that of a comparable vessel built in Asia, and noted that such costs result in a persistent shortage of Jones Act-compliant vessels.
Jones Act requirements that raise costs to construct and operate U.S. flagged vessels ultimately add price-increases to oil transport that affects consumers. In the current U.S. oil market, record domestic production is saturating the Gulf Coast in discounted light, sweet crude relative to the Brent oil price marker. This cost-advantaged oil is obviously attractive to East Coast refineries but Jones Act requirements have imposed prohibitive transportation costs on shippers who have therefore increasingly turned to rail for transport. A September 2013 Platts article summarized the cost issue by noting that the cost to move oil from the Gulf to the East Coast on Jones Act tankers ranged from $5 per barrel to $6 per barrel while shipping it to Canada could be done for close to $2 per barrel.
A more in-depth look at market dynamics, comparing the cost of shipping similar volumes of crude from one U.S. port to another versus moving it from that same U.S. port to a foreign one, illustrates the Jones Act's consequences for American consumers. The spot market costs from February to August 2014 for moving 325,000 barrels of crude on a Jones Act vessel from Vancouver, WA, to Long Beach, CA, averaged $3.25-$4.25 per barrel. But, the cost to move 600,000 barrels of crude to South Korea on a non-Jones Act vessel averaged over the same interval just $2.10-2.60 per barrel. Similarly, the cost to move 325,000 barrels of crude from Houston on a Jones Act vessel to New York averaged at that time $4.50-$6.00 per barrel while the cost of moving 600,000 barrels of crude from Houston to Rotterdam on a non-Jones Act vessel was $1.75-$4.00 per barrel. Clearly, these cost differentials are enormous.
The impacts of these inflated Jones Act costs ultimately affect U.S. consumers. In fact, the U.S. International Trade Commission ("USITC") found that repealing Jones Act requirements offered enormous gains to the U.S. economy and consumers. As one commenter explained:
In 2002, the USITC estimated that complete liberalization of the cabotage [shipping] provisions of the Jones Act would create a U.S. economic welfare gain of $656 million, and in 2009, it calculated that figure at $ 1.32 billion…The potential savings of liberalizing the cabotage laws… are attributed to the fact that shipping services in the U.S. cost 22 percent more than equivalent services abroad."
Of course, these costs are borne by consumers at all stages of domestic waterborne transportation. As a result, a growing number of bulk shippers and advocates representing consumers in Hawaii, Alaska and Puerto Rico have been calling for a review of the Jones Act. Despite the additional costs created by the Jones Act, recent legislation has been introduced that would extend its application to all future U.S. natural gas LNG exports.
In the context of any examination of U.S. energy export policy, particularly with regard to petroleum and finished petroleum products, a comprehensive review of the Jones Act and its consequences on domestic energy prices is overdue. Tesoro does not believe that the former can be honestly had without the latter. Further, just as the Renewable Fuels Standard injects an artificial government mandate into the domestic fuels marketplace, the Jones Act also forces a contrivance into the emerging debate over U.S. energy export policies that creates very discernible winners (foreign consumers) and losers (American consumers).

The tuxedo or dinner jacket made its debut in the late 1800s as a modernization of men's formal attire. It was adopted to replace the traditional tailcoat with a more casual, yet still elegant, shortened jacket. Commonly worn for weddings, proms and other gala occasions, it is named for the exclusive Tuxedo Park resort in Orange County, N.Y., where it originated.
While few occupations require the donning of a tuxedo during all hours and days on the job, tuxedos are the hallmark attire for performances in formal settings. Orchestra and symphony conductors, for example, wear them for performances but otherwise wear casual clothing during working hours.
Formal catered dinners served by uniformed personnel often require workers to wear tuxedos. There are levels of formality of dress for the servers, incorporating various parts of the tuxedo in black and white. Sometimes only a black cummerbund and tie are worn with a white shirt and black pants. The full tuxedo and its appropriate accessories are the top level of formality. It is worn by both men and women servers.
Tuxedos are the attire for entertainment-industry awards shows, worn both by the emcee and the male attendees. The emcee of other special events, such as a benefit gala, also wears a tuxedo, as does the person who presides over the details of a funeral. The tuxedo denotes a "person in charge."
Some elegant hotels dress their doormen in tuxedos, as do some limousine companies. Valets at high-end resorts and restaurants also sometimes wear them. The maître d' of a formal restaurant often wears a tuxedo to mark his status as the head of the dining room, responsible for assigning tables, servers and taking reservations.

London: India will be ranked sixth in the next cricket World Cup, which is slated to be held in South Africa in 2003, according to a new system announced by the International Cricket Council. Australia, South Africa, Sri Lanka and Pakistan will be the first four teams in rankings as per the new system.
The new system, announced on Wednesday, will seed teams in terms of their performance in the last World Cup in England in 1999 and recent performance in One-day cricket. According to some reports, the organisers could draw India into the inaugural tie with South Africa to attract crowd, keeping in mind the Indian emigrants.
A Pakistan-Australia inaugural match is unlikely considering that both teams played in the 1999 finals. Group 'A' would comprise Australia, Pakistan, England, West Indies, Zimbabwe and a ICC Trophy qualifier. Group 'B' will have South Africa, Sri Lanka, India, New Zealand, Bangladesh and a qualifier.
Seeding: Australia, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, England, India, New Zealand, West Indies, Zimbabwe and Bangladesh. UNI

Really happy with this product!Review by BobG.on 4/2/2015These are great tools for any exercise program. I can get a great burn from working out with these without the joint pain. I had a serious quad/knee injury 3 years ago, and just the stretches that I can do with these bands is worth the price. I just ordered the wall anchor system and I cant wait to incorporate it into my workouts. I wish Rubberbanditz was around 20 years ago when I was involved in collegiate football!

A dynamic time order network for time-series gene expression data analysis
The International Conference on Intelligent Biology and Medicine (ICIBM): Systems Biology
The International Conference on Intelligent Biology and Medicine (ICIBM)
Typical analysis of time-series gene expression data such as clustering or graphical models cannot distinguish between early and later drug responsive gene targets in cancer cells. However, these genes would represent good candidate biomarkers.
We propose a new model - the dynamic time order network - to distinguish and connect early and later drug responsive gene targets. This network is constructed based on an integrated differential equation. Spline regression is applied for an accurate modeling of the time variation of gene expressions. Then a likelihood ratio test is implemented to infer the time order of any gene expression pair. One application of the model is the discovery of estrogen response biomarkers. For this purpose, we focused on genes whose responses are late when the breast cancer cells are treated with estradiol (E2).
Our approach has been validated by successfully finding time order relations between genes of the cell cycle system. More notably, we found late response genes potentially interesting as biomarkers of E2 treatment.
Breast cancer represents a major public health issue since it comprises 22.9% of all cancers in women and it is an important cause of death
Biomarkers often refer to proteins measured in the blood whose concentrations reflect the presence or the severity of the disease. In the case of estrogen treatment, biomarkers can be seen as parameters reflecting the effects of the drug on the patient. The biomarkers of hormone therapy of the breast cancer is not well developed. For instance, although tamoxifen's pharmacology mechanism is well known, its clinical biomarker is not well established yet. Understanding the cascade of estrogen signaling pathway is the key to study the potential biomarkers.
Gene expression-based biomarker discovery has demonstrated efficiency for breast cancer
Unfortunately standard methods might fail to reveal key biomarkers, since they do not take into account the temporal aspect of gene expression and the complex network of gene regulation. To tackle this issue, the analysis of time series data through dynamic networks represents efficient alternatives
Late response genes might represent relevant biomarkers because they are more stable over the time. Our approach relies on this biological aspect of biomarker discovery. To identify late response genes, we propose a new model based on a dynamic time order network (DTON). The model interpretation is simple and intuitive: it reflects which genes express in the early times and which ones in the late times after the hormone treatment. The DTON is constructed based on an integrated differential equation. Spline regression is applied for an accurate modeling of the time variation of gene expressions. A likelihood ratio test is implemented to infer the time order of any gene expression pair. The advantages of this modeling approach are numerous: (i) closed-form expressions of ODEs, (ii) accurate modeling of the time series data by using spline regression and by integrating differential equations, and (iii) model learning involving simple regressions quick to compute and only a few parameters have to be estimated. The method has been validated by successfully finding time order relations between genes of the cell cycle system. Most importantly, we found late response genes as candidate biomarkers of E2 treatment.
This paper is organized as follows. Section Materials and methods first describes experiments and data preprocessing. Late response genes are defined and discussed. Then the dynamic time order network and its model learning are presented. It is described how dynamic time order relations between genes are inferred through a likelihood ratio test. The next section illustrates our method on real data analysis. Our model is validated with the well-known cell cycle system. Late response genes of E2 treatment are discovered. Finally, the last section concludes and points out promising perspectives.

Network construction
After determining the time order relationships, an
Small network
When the network is small (less than one hundred nodes), it is interesting to keep as much as possible information about time order relations. The best strategy in this case is fine tune a threshold used to remove non-significant edges. For this purpose, a simple and efficient approach is the use of the median or other quantiles of the distribution of log-likelihood difference values. Then a simplification step is used to remove redundant edges. For instance, when one observes
Genome-wide network
When the network is huge, such as the genome-wide network from the microarray data, the previous approach cannot be used. The reason is that a low threshold value will create a network highly connected which is too complex to manipulate and to visualize, whereas a high threshold value will lead to a graph with many connected components from which it will only be possible to infer time orders between connected genes. To tackle this issue, we compute the so-called maximum weight spanning tree (MWST). This graph presents several advantages: (i) its tree shape is a very simple structure easy to manipulate and visualize, and (ii) every node is connected by a path such that we can access to the time order relation between each gene. Besides, the MWST can be quickly computed in
Biological interpretation of the model

Results and discussion
Reproducing the cell cycle temporal system
The cell cycle temporal system represents a good benchmark for evaluating our method. In this subsection, in order to see if we can reproduce the time order relations, we focused on key cell cycle genes. Twelve mRNA expression data were selected, which include cyclin A1 (CCNA1), cyclin A2 (CCNA2), cyclin B1 (CCNB1), cyclin B2 (CCNB2), cyclin D1 (CCND1), cyclin D3 (CCND3), cyclin E1 (CCNE1), cyclin E2 (CCNE2), cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (CDK1), cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2), cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4) and cyclin-dependent kinase 6 (CDK6). Regressions have be computed for all pairs of genes. Then, the network of cell cycle genes has been computed by thresholding using the median of the log-likelihood differences. After simplification, the inferred network is composed of 27 time order relations. It is depicted in Figure

The identification of late response genes does not represent a well-studied issue. Most notably, no dedicated method has been developed for this purpose. Nevertheless, we tried to compare our method with standard approaches in gene expression analysis: agglomerative hierarchical clustering (AHC) and t-tests. On the one hand, AHC is a well-used tool to cluster gene expression profiles. After computing AHC, we used the silhouette criteria to determine the optimum number

We also search in the literature if the late response genes identified with our method can be good candidate biomarkers. Since biomarkers are molecules that are observed in cancer patients but not in healthly people, there are likely to be genes overexpressed after E2 treatment. Among the overexpressed hubs of the network, CALB2, PDZK1, MT2A and FANCD2 are well-known in the literature as diagnostic marker of breast cancer and E2 response
Based on experimentations carried out on time-series gene expression data, our dynamic time order network has been shown to efficiently distinguish and connect early and late response genes. First, our model has faithfully reproduced the cell cycle temporal system. Over the 27 time order relations inferred, 89% correspond to the state-of-art network, 11% cannot be checked, but no one are false. Second, our approach has been successfully applied to a genome-wide level. The learning method has been able to process five thousands genes and the network simplification through the maximum weighted spanning tree provided a graphical display of the huge network. Most notably, several incoming-edge hubs showing very high connectivity have been discovered. All these hubs showed late gene response profiles. Regarding those which are overexpressed over the time, they have been reported as biomarkers of breast cancer and E2 response in the literature and databases.
The comparison of results with other approaches is not straightforward, since our method is the only one dedicated to identify late response genes. When compared with standard methods in gene expression analysis, our approach yielded specific results, contrary to agglomerative hierarchical clustering. Moreover it does not need any complex thresholding such as with a t-test strategy. It is worth noting that all genes identified with DTON showed late responses, while this is not the case with the t-test strategy. Besides, our approach is based on the comparison of gene expression integrals combined with cubic spline regression, thus offering an accurate assessment of time order relations.
The discovery of biomarkers is one of the application of our model. The distinction between early and late response genes is also an important application in developmental biology where the understanding of the temporal aspect of gene expression is a key issue such as for cell differentiation. For the moment, we mainly focused on the identification of late response genes. The use of another graph modeling would be more efficient for pointing out early response genes than the MWST which tends to display incoming-edge hubs.

It was built and consecrated as a Dutch Reformed Mission Church in 1821, 35 years after the founding of the village of Graaff-Reinet in 1786. It is also one of the three remaining Dutch Reformed Church buildings built on the traditional cruciform plan.
The Rembrandt Group acquired the building in 1965 and Dr Anton Rupert Chairman of the Rembrandt Group of companies undertook to have it restored and converted into an art museum with a request that a number of South African artists donate examples of their best work. In gratitude, the Council named the museum the Hester Rupert Art Museum in honour of Dr Rupert's late mother. The building was declared a national monument on 4 October 1968.
The museum�s collection comprises of 126 works by 106 artists. Most of the collection is devoted to works produced by artists working in the 1960's. The art collection represents striking examples of original 20th Century South African artists of historical and cultural value.

Senator Mike Lee (R-UT), ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Committee's Antitrust, Competition Policy, and Consumer Rights subcommittee, today released the following statement regarding the Federal Trade Commission's decision on the merger of recording labels Universal Music Group and EMI.
"I am satisfied with the FTC's decision to allow Universal Music Group's acquisition of recording label EMI. In dynamic markets such as this one, in which innovation is constantly changing the means of production and distribution of music, government regulators must be careful not to intervene without evidence that a merger will harm consumers. The FTC's decision appears to be fact-based, well-reasoned, and focused on consumer welfare. I trust that the acquisition of EMI will enable Universal's labels and artists to continue recording, producing and distributing great music at a fair price."
