Pamela Courson
Pamela Susan Courson (December 22, 1946 – April 25, 1974) was the long-term companion of Jim Morrison, singer of The Doors. After the deaths of Morrison and Courson, her parents petitioned an out-of-state court to declare that the couple had a common-law marriage
Courson was born in Weed, California. She was described as a reclusive young girl from a family that did not mix with the neighbors very much. She did well in school until junior high, when records show that her family was contacted about truancy. Courson hated high school, attending Orange High School, and her grades declined when she was sixteen. That spring, she left for Los Angeles, where she and a friend got an apartment. Rumor has it that Neil Young wrote the song "Cinnamon Girl" about her, as well as "The Needle and the Damage Done", but both have been denied.[1]
In his 1998 memoir, Light My Fire: My Life with the Doors, former keyboardist Ray Manzarek stated that Courson and Morrison met at a nightclub called London Fog on the Sunset Strip in 1965, while she was an art student at Los Angeles City College. Courson's relationship with Morrison was tumultuous with loud arguments and repeated infidelities by both partners.
Courson briefly operated Themis, a fashion boutique that Morrison bought for her.Her death certificate lists her occupation as "women's apparel".
On July 3, 1971, Courson found Morrison dead in the bathtub of their apartment in Paris, France. The official coroner's report listed his cause of death as heart failure, although no autopsy was performed. Questions persist over the actual cause of death. Under Morrison's will, which stated that he was "an unmarried person", Courson inherited his entire fortune. Lawsuits against theestate would tie up her quest for inheritance for the next two years. Courson did not remain in contact with the remaining Doors members after she received her share of Morrison's royalties.
After Morrison's death, Courson became a recluse in Los Angeles, using heroin and showing signs of mental instability. In his follow-up book to the seminal Jim Morrison biography, No One Here Gets Out Alive, Jerry Hopkins mentions that Courson might have prostituted herself after Morrison's death, probably to keep up with the costly lifestyle she was used to, and was apparentlypimped by a former Doors chauffeur. Doors historian Danny Sugerman became friendly with her in Los Angeles after Morrison's death. Many years later he wrote in Wonderland Avenue that Courson's heroin addiction progressed to the point that when she smuggled her drugs in her car she hid them in different-colored balloons.[3] She planned to swallow them if an officer pulled her over, and to "shit them out" upon returning home.[4]
On April 25, 1974, Courson died of a heroin overdose on the living room couch at the Los Angeles apartment she shared with two male friends. A neighbor said she had talked about looking forward to seeing Morrison again soon. Her parents intended that she be buried next to Morrison at Père Lachaise Cemetery in Paris, and they listed this location as the place of burial on her death certificate, but due to legal complications with transporting the body to France, her remains were buried at Fairhaven Memorial Park in Santa Ana, California, under the name Pamela Susan Morrison. Several months after her death, her parents, Columbus and Peny Courson, inherited Morrison's fortune. Morrison's parents later contested their executorship of the estate.
In his will, made in Los Angeles County on February 12, 1969, Morrison left his entire estate to Courson, also naming her co-executor with his attorney, Max Fink.
When Courson died, a battle ensued between Morrison's and Courson's parents over who had legal claim to Morrison's estate. On his death, his property became Courson's; on her death, her property passed to her next heirs at law, her parents. Morrison's parents contested the will under which Courson and subsequently her parents had inherited their son's property.
To bolster their positions, Courson's parents presented an unsigned document that they claimed Pam Courson had acquired in Colorado, apparently an application for a declaration that she and Morrison had contracted a common-law marriage under the laws of that state. The ability to contract a common-law marriage was abolished in California in 1896, but the state's conflict of lawsrules provided for recognition of common-law marriages lawfully contracted in foreign jurisdictions. Colorado was one of the 11 U.S. jurisdictions that still recognized common-law marriage. As long as a common-law marriage was lawfully contracted under Colorado law, it was recognized as a marriage under California law. However, neither Morrison nor Courson had signed the document, nor was there any proof that either of the deceased had even been aware of the document's existence. Neither Morrison nor Courson was ever a resident of Colorado.
Whatever the circumstances of the unsigned document, the court case, and the controversy surrounding it, the California probate court decided that Courson and Morrison had a common-law marriage under the laws of Colorado. The effect of the court ruling was to close probate of Morrison's and Courson's estates and to reinforce the Courson family's hold on the inheritance.

This is what a dictionary should do, I think. Dictionaries are word stores that stock all the words in a language (imho). Not only the "best" words, or the "right" words, but all the words. So that speakers and writers can choose the words they want to use.
Dictionaries can mark certain words as nonstandard or colloquial of course, and it makes sense to do so. This is what the Merriam-Webster does with "irregardless".

Seven Cards prospects headed for Fall League
PITTSBURGH -- Four players listed on MLB.com's Top 20 Cardinals prospect list will represent the organization on the Peoria Javelinas Arizona Fall League club, which will begin play on Oct. 7.
Outfielder Charlie Tilson (No. 7), right-hander Sam Tuivailala (No. 13), right-hander Tyrell Jenkins (No. 14) and infielder Jacob Wilson (No. 19) headline the group of participating prospects. The Cardinals are also sending right-hander Mitch Harris, right-hander Chris Perry and catcher Cody Stanley to the distinguished Fall League.
Five of those players are currently with the Cardinals' Double-A affiliate in Springfield, while Jenkins and Perry are pitching for the Class A Advanced team in Palm Beach. Jenkins will use the AFL experience to accrue innings lost in his shortened season. He made his season debut on June 17 after spending 10 months recovering from shoulder surgery.
Tilson, who was recently named to the Florida State League postseason All-Star team, has already played in a career-high 118 games while hitting .287/.333/.389 combined at two levels. Wilson currently leads that Springfield club with a .305 average, while Stanley has hit .295/.350/.445 with 12 homers and 42 RBIs in 96 Double-A games.
Harris has the most unique back story of any of the seven players, as he is wrapping up his second year of professional ball despite being taken by the Cardinals in the 13th round of the 2008 First-Year Player Draft. Harris had to put his career on hold while first serving five years in the military, during which he rose to the rank of lieutenant. He received his release from the Navy in January 2013 and has already risen to Double-A.
Harris, 28, has pitched in 39 games (Class A Advanced and Double-A combined) and posted a 4.22 ERA and 1.16 WHIP while allowing an opponents' batting average of .221.
The Cardinals will also be represented in the AFL by Jason Simontacchi, who will serve as the Peoria pitching coach. The Javelinas draw Minor League players from the Cardinals, Braves, Indians, Rays and Royals organizations.

Nari Ward: Episodes: Bus Park & Forevermore
Nari Ward is a magician and a conjurer of space. His thought-provoking installations present theatrical narratives that evoke new spatial perception in viewers. Ward transforms commonplace objects to create materially dense environments that bring to light the kinds of stories and legacies that typically remain untold or unacknowledged.
Episodes: Bus Park & Forevermore was comprised of two site-specific installations. Each suggests a different "episode" in the artist's response to the Museum collection and to the Isabella Stewart Gardner's unusual requirement that the museum galleries should be preserved exactly as she had arranged them "for the education and enjoyment of the public forever." Ward took us on a metaphorical behind-the-scenes tour focusing on the objects as well as on the people who are the custodians of this unique and challenging enterprise.
The first installation in the special exhibition gallery, Forevermore, played with the concept of time in museums. Mimesis: Glove Books and ISG Duster 2002 was dedicated to the Gardner Museum's conservation staff and their efforts to protect the collection and to slow down the natural degradation of objects. The A.I.R. Reading Table invited the public to peruse exhibition catalogues and a CD-ROM to illustrate how former Artists-in-Residents have connected to the collection. These materials represented yet another way that museums defy time by documenting the work and presenting it to the public. Finally, Once, an installation combining clocks and baby pictures of the Museum's staff, presented a more general comment on the passage of time and the human attempt to bring some semblance of order to it.
Other works in the special exhibition gallery included Flashlight Tour, a look at the hidden contents of furniture in the Museum galleries and Make Believe, a fanciful rack with playful cloaks visitors could borrow to wear when viewing the outdoor installation called Bus Park.
For Bus Park, the second installation, the artist chose a small yellow school bus, and filled it with photo albums and images of works in the collection and a sound piece of young voices, to create an imaginary threshold into the Museum. The seats were covered in tailored barrier cloth, a nod to the history of bussing in Boston, a city which witnessed some of the most recent virulent resistant to the national bussing policy. An icon of American education and childhood, the school bus provokes personal and societal memories. Created with the help of young people in the community partnership program, Bus Park gave shape to the artist's imaginative journey through time and space into a place of his own making. Episodes: Bus Park & Forevermore is both commentary on and tribute to the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum's unique environment."
Nari Ward came to the Gardner Museum as an Artist-in-Residence in 2002. He emigrated with his family from Jamaica to the United States at the age of twelve and now lives and works in Harlem.
Boston Arts Academy, October 2002
This interview with Nari Ward was conducted by Jessica Johnson and India Perryman, grade 12 students at the Boston Arts Academy and participants in the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum's Associates Program and School Partnership Program. The students worked with Ward to create and install elements of Bus Park, including creating the web of pencils, recording the audio component and digitally capturing images from the collection for the albums. Episodes: Bus Park & Forevermore marks the second like collaboration by the artist; in 2002, Ward worked with high school students at Phillips Andover Academy in preparation for his exhibition at the Addison Gallery, Andover, Mass.
Q: How did you think of the title for this project?
A: Actually, the project has three titles. The whole project is called Episodes. Then there's Bus Park, which is the bus outside, and Forevermore in the gallery inside. When I go around looking for things on the street to use in my artwork, I always look for the stories behind them. So for me Episodes is really multiple stories. Bus Park is a play on words in that it's both parked – like a car would be parked – and a park, meaning a natural, controlled place where people can sit [and] which describes this particular bus; it's a place for people to sit and for things that grow. Then, in the gallery inside, several pieces make up Forevermore. It's about time. It's about the passage of time and the Sisyphean task of museum conservators who try to control the inevitable changes in materials that come with the passing of time.
Q: How do you come up with your ideas? Are they spontaneous?
A: Some of them are. I think one of the great things about working at a new site is that you don't fall into the same old habits that you might in your studio where you have your bag of tricks. For me it's always necessary to react to things that are in the immediate environment and to find a way to use what I see in those spaces. A lot of times I look for things in the spaces that people take for granted and try to give those things new meaning.
Q: What made you decide to use a school bus and all the other materials?
A: I was thinking about three parts of the museum that are really vibrant in terms of how they interact with the public or vice versa: the Education Department, the Conservation Department, and the interior courtyard space. And I was thinking about the parts of the museum where you get the sense that Mrs. Gardner created an entire installation. I feel she's an artist and that the museum staff are the caretakers of the installation. So I really wanted to work with the idea of installation and the passage of time and at the same time I wanted to think about the museum in terms of education. So I came up with the idea of the school bus as a space that I can control. It was really a way of carving out my own niche, so to speak, within Isabella Stewart Gardner's very strong vision.
The pencils, of course, went along with the idea of education. Right outside the courtyard area they have these greenhouses where they grow the plants. As I passed by the greenhouses going in and out of the museum I saw these pots, bringing to mind the idea of growth and development and nurturing. And then it was a matter of seeing what would grow in these flowerpots which led me to think of pencils, which again made sense in terms of the school bus. Pencils are what you use to communicate thoughts and to make your mark, you write it down so that you can communicate. The very rich dialogue of how these different elements interconnect made sense.
Q: How do you want people to experience your artwork?
A: I hope that people will come to it with very few preconceptions. A lot of what I do is really about breaking down people's expectations. At first when they come in they might be perplexed or a little confused but in the end they get visually engaged. I use unexpected visual elements as a kind of lure to "trap" people into a dialogue with the work – it forces them to deal with the work in ways they wouldn't normally in any other kind of situation.
In creating my work I think about how to layer stories and how to build a body of work and what kind of questions to ask. Then I start thinking about the materials that I want to use, and then about how I want people to react to the whole environment or the individual transformed object.
Q: Were you an artist first or a discarded materials person?
A: I grew up in a family where artists were really the guys who were crazy and went around cutting their ears off and doing other stuff you didn't want to get involved in. But I had some drawing skills and I had gotten the reputation in school as the class artist, so I gravitated towards art. But then the question was how to make a living at it. I met a really important teacher, Emily Mason, and she got me to go to an art camp. And it was a fantastic experience because I got a chance to be around real artists who weren't cutting their ears off or doing crazy things (laughing)– they were actually making a living! And so I realized that I could do that. In the course of all that I moved to Harlem – this was before Harlem became the boomtown that is now. Back then people were using all the empty lots as dumpsites, and I started seeing things that had been thrown out, and some things really spoke to me. I started using them in my work, trying to echo the stories behind those discarded objects.
Mrs. Gardner's Books, and Nari Ward's Bus Park
Books are like imprisoned souls till someone takes them down from a shelf and frees them.
- Samuel Butler
In a sense, Isabella Stewart Gardner started off as a book collector. Her deep love of Dante Alighieri was nurtured in the 1880s by Harvard professor Charles Eliot Norton who encouraged her to acquire significant Renaissance editions of the Divine Comedy. She also began to buy illuminated manuscripts, historic documents, and garden books.
Mrs. Gardner collected a large number of children's books. These included some of her own childhood books, and those of her family, while others were bought for her orphaned nephews whom she raised. However, children's books had long been (and remain) a special category of collecting. In particular, illustrated works which allowed artists a sense of fantasy and freedom of expression difficult to find in other media, are a particular treasure. Among the highlights of the collection are several New England chapbooks from around 1800, Japanese fairy tales printed in Tokyo around 1888, a first American edition of Robert Louis Stevenson's A Child's Garden of Verses (1885), and several volumes by Walter Crane. She also owned English, French, and German editions of Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland.
Ward saw Mrs. Gardner's collection of children's books as a "point of entry" into the Museum experience. Focusing on this sometimes overlooked aspect of the collection the artist selected sentences from eighteen children's books and recorded students from the Boston Academy (one of the Museum's community partnership schools) editing them to create a haunting sound piece for the exhibition's outdoor installation Bus Park. Young voices could be heard reciting the tales in a rap-like juxtaposition of voices.
Children's Storybooks from the Collection included in Ward's work, Bus Park:

Kiski Area boys put last season behind them in quest for section title
Forget pressure, potential or past experiences that might follow them, Kiski Area's boys are entering this basketball season with a live-in-the-present mentality.
Even when times get tough, the Cavaliers plan to casually shrug their shoulders, go with the flow and move on.
They anticipate that could translate into some good times ahead.
"We're super excited," Cavaliers boys basketball coach Harry Rideout said. "This is going to be a fun year."
An athletic team that has shown it can run and gun or lull in halfcourt sets, Kiski Area returns four starters from a playoff team. They include key seniors Nick Stone and Adam Robison, who are frontrunners to be the A-K's top scoring tandem.
The 5-foot-10 Stone averaged 15.2 points per game and hit a team-high 42 3-pointers. A 6-foot-4 forward, Robison averaged 12.4 points per game.
Replacing standout point guard Alex Lamendola, now at Washington & Jefferson, will be a tall task.
Stone and Robison will share the responsibilities often shouldered solely by Lamendola, a true point guard.
"Those two will play very important roles," Rideout said. "Nick will play our lead guard position; he'll be a scoring point guard. Adam will be a point forward for us. He is a very unique type of player."
Players who were freshmen when Rideout took the reins of the program now are seniors.
"They're my guys," the fourth-year coach said. "When I first got here, they didn't know what to expect. Now they have a much better understanding."
Another key returnee is 6-2 junior swingman Joe Brungo, along with 6-5 senior forward Mitch Murdock and 6-1 sophomore guard Mike Simmons.
Last year seemed to end in a flash for the Cavaliers (16-7), who averaged 61.7 points per game. Robison was ejected from a late-season Section 1-AAAA game after getting a pair of technicals for hanging on the rim after a dunk. He had to serve a two-game suspension — one per PIAA rules and the other school-imposed — and his absence showed as Kiski Area fell to Norwin in the next-to-last section game.
Feeling it was denied a shot at the section, the team never regained its balance and fell, 61-57, to Plum in the first round of the playoffs.
"It's a great lesson learned," Rideout said. "We were thrilled to be in that position. At the moment it, was devastating to not be able to share the section title."
Robison doesn't want the team to develop an ego.
"We have to play like we are the underdogs every night," Robison said. "If we get too ahead of ourselves, we will get beat, and we know that."
Rideout calls this team "an unselfish group" and said anyone in his core bunch could erupt for a 20-point game.
"I think we'll finally look like a Quad-A team with our length," Rideout said.
Reserves include 6-1 freshman Lincoln Clayton, junior guard Ryan Sciullo, sophomore forward Jake Reid (6-6) and sophomore guard Tre Talton.

LEAGUE CITY, Texas - League City has started its council meetings with a prayer for the last several decades. The invocation has a place on the agenda right next to the Pledge of Allegiance and many people at Tuesday night's meeting vowed to keep it that way.
"It just makes me sick with everything that's going on in our country to see people try to take this away from us," said one resident who addressed the crowd Tuesday.
"There's too many Christian values being taken away from us in this country," said David Cohoon.
The residents are passionate about prayer and are speaking out after the city's mayor received a letter from a Wisconsin based group asking them to stop praying at public meetings.
The group, Freedom from Religion Foundation, said it received a complaint from a League City resident and that's why they sent the letter.
"If you wish to pray prior to the meeting, do so on your own time, in your own way," the letter read. "Do not make it part of the secular business of your local government."
It's the same group that challenged a team of cheerleaders from Kountze, Texas in October 2012.
Mayor Tim Paulissen said most of the people he has heard from are in favor of keeping the meetings they way they are.
"I'd say out of the 100 or so emails I've only had one that was negative," Paulissen said.
Attorneys with the national non-profit law firm, the Liberty Institute, agreed to represent the city if a lawsuit should arise from this. They spoke at Tuesday's meeting and agreed to draft a written policy on prayer for the city.
"It's absolutely constitutional for a city to open public meetings in prayer," said Jeff Mateer with the Liberty Institute. "For over 200 years legislative bodies have been opening in prayer. There is nothing wrong with continuing a practice it started in 1962."
No one from the Freedom for Religion Foundation was at the city council meeting, but a spokesperson told Local 2 by phone they have no plans to move forward with a lawsuit at this time. The group hopes League City will reconsider its practices.

For this month we thought it would be nice to practice a little alliteration.
For the Month of May; MOTION.Test that "Burst Mode" on your new DSLR. Make those shutters 'click' wildly.
And, apparently, the woman in the middle is a VERY S-L-O-W reader!
{Great effect, BTW}
I thought this might be fun one:
From a Western Hockey League game a couple years ago ... Seattle Thunderbirds VS Portland Winterhawks.
After an hour or so work - my hand and wrist hurts now !
There was not really enough light to get a fast enough shutter speed; my first try at this effect.
Outstanding results, Rubble!
=====Great job embracing the Topic, Warp!
Thanks ParkinT; I have just noticed part of a foot missing :rolleyes:
I thought the topic this month was going to be " late again "

Is there a source?--Rodolphus 17:34, September 12, 2009 (UTC)

I am concerned that this may be another case of identifying characters in the film based on speculative evidence. In the OotP film, there are two female students present in the scene in which Umbridge gives out badges to the Inquisitorial Squad, and only three of the known Inquisitorial Squad members in the book were female (Pansy, Millicent, and an unidentified sixth-year). However, Gemma Boyle isn't credited anywhere, so we can't know which of those characters she is intended to be portraying. It's possible to identify characters not credited by name in the films by correlating information from the movies with information from the books. For example, though Peter Best is only credited as "Executioner" in the PoA film, we know that he played Walden Macnair, because that is who the executioner is in the book. However, I don't think there is anything in the film to indicate whether Gemma is playing Pansy, Millicent, or the unidentified sixth-year girl. ★ Starstuff (Owl me!) 23:44, September 17, 2009 (UTC)

Cervelli v. Aloha Bed & Breakfast
Our Sponsors
Diane and Taeko worked hard to save money for a trip to visit a close friend and her newborn baby in Hawai'i. When they contacted a commercial business establishment, Aloha Bed & Breakfast, to arrange accommodations, the owner refused to rent them a room, citing her personal discomfort with lesbian and gay couples. The owner claims that Hawai'i's law prohibiting discrimination in public accommodations does not and cannot constrain the actions of her business. Lambda Legal brought this lawsuit to protect and enforce Hawai'i's interest in eradicating discrimination and to uphold the right of all people to access public accommodations free from unfair discrimination. Given the damage to Hawai'i's antidiscrimination law that would follow if businesses could disregard the law based on business owners' personal beliefs, the Hawai'i Civil Rights Commission has also intervened in the lawsuit as a plaintiff.
- December 19, 2011 Lambda Legal files complaint in the First Circuit Court of Hawai'i, and the Hawai'i Civil Rights Commission (HCRC) moves to intervene as a plaintiff.
- January 10, 2012 Defendant files a motion to dismiss.
- February 21, 2012 The trial court denies Defendant's motion to dismiss.
- March 5, 2012 Defendant files a motion for leave to take an interlocutory appeal of the denial of the motion to dismiss.
- March 29, 2012 The trial court denies Defendant's motion for leave to take an interlocutory appeal of the denial of the motion to dismiss.
- February 13, 2013 Plaintiffs and the HCRC file a motion for partial summary judgment on liability and declaratory and injunctive relief.
- February 20, 2013 Defendant files a motion for summary judgment.
- April 15, 2013 Victory! The trial court grants Lambda Legal's and the HCRC's motion for partial summary judgment, and denies Defendant's motion for summary judgment, finding that Aloha Bed & Breakfast violated Hawai'i's public accommodations law and ordering that it stop discriminating against same-sex couples.
- May 13, 2013 Defendant takes an interlocutory appeal of the trial court's ruling to the Intermediate Court of Appeals.

dev0lution - Thursday, December 23, 2004 - link1GB DC Kit for $400+ and 2GB DC Kit for $800+?? I think I'll just keep the hyper-x 4300 I got for $200 less and spend more on my other components. The performance increase isn't THAT mind-blowing but the prices sure are! Reply
Lord Evermore - Thursday, December 23, 2004 - linkAnother sign of declining standards: the "Xenon" .13 technology? Reply
GTMan - Thursday, December 23, 2004 - linkThe article makes the claim that other high end memory is achieved by "hand picking" and then says that this memory is a "new breed".
Where is the info to back this up? What is different (in terms of technology) about this RAM? Or maybe this article is only about numbers :( Reply
Carfax - Wednesday, December 22, 2004 - linkThe reason why the memory bandwidth scores are so low for DDR2-700 and 800 is obviously because the memory is bottlenecked by the FSB.
The P4 would need to have a FSB of 1600 to take advantage of DDR2-800.. Reply
Alphafox78 - Wednesday, December 22, 2004 - linkFunny thing is that at the 700mhz speed the memory bandwith on my A64 with PC3200 is faster... Reply
Anemone - Tuesday, December 21, 2004 - linkPS and I didn't even buy the matched 2gb set, just picked up 2 1gb individual sticks from Newegg.
And at 4+ghz and sub 50c temps on air, I don't find any reason to worry about using an AMD solution...
Anemone - Tuesday, December 21, 2004 - linkI own 2 1gb sticks of this memory and while I"ve not had occasion yet to reach 811 fsb, every other timing they tested I have managed on a P5AD2-E (925XE) board. My PS is only the Antec Neopower 480 so it can also be done with a lesser PS as well.
Expensive, yes, but given that no way would you ever see DDR1 in 1gb sticks doing this, makes it quite worth it if you need 2gb of memory in 2 sticks.
bupkus - Tuesday, December 21, 2004 - linkOnly one question...
When will the time come that I can/should start considering DDR2 for my future AMD gaming PC? Reply
PrinceGaz - Tuesday, December 21, 2004 - linkI just wish there were 1GB PC3200 or faster modules available for not much more than twice the price of the 512MB ones. Instead it seems 1GB DDR modules will always be overpriced and with slow timings. The Athlon 64 is crying out for fast 1GB PC3200 modules. Reply
MS - Tuesday, December 21, 2004 - linkp.s. I know how to hand pick coffee beans but with memory, I would be out of my league... Reply
MS - Tuesday, December 21, 2004 - linkJason
It is certainly true that if you have a system backbone that is not capable of taking advantage of the peripherals it will put a little damper on the enthusiasm. On the other hand, don't blame the components for that.
One of the biggest issues is that the P4, no matter what you do cannot take advantage of latencies or bandwidth. The Prescott is a little better than the Northwood in that respect but it is still the bottleneck. Chances are that Intel finally will wake up and do something about this problem but maybe not. However, from the standpoint of a memory manufacturer, all we can do is try to provide THE very best solution and I firmly believe that we have done just that. Whether anybody wants it or not is a different story --- even though the latter could become our problem... :) Reply
Wesley Fink - Tuesday, December 21, 2004 - link#9 - We don't often mention exact price in a review because it is always changing and reviews are read and reread in the future. This is particularly true with memory. Right now, a 2x1GB kit is about $818. The 1GB kit with SS 512MB dimms is about $435.
As we said in the review, this is expensive memory. Reply
formulav8 - Tuesday, December 21, 2004 - linkThis was most likely a HAND-Picked Dimm that OCZ sent to anandtech. Wait until there is real experiance with this memory to see if it is real or not.
Jason Reply
skunkbuster - Tuesday, December 21, 2004 - linkhow much does this cost? i dont think i saw it mentioned in the review
bcoupland - Tuesday, December 21, 2004 - linkWhat I find ironic with all this huge bandwidth on the 1066 fsb p4's, is that a S754 3700+ with 3.2 GB/s can still beat it in most tests, some more than others. Nice Ram, though. Reply
bigtoe36 - Tuesday, December 21, 2004 - linkGuys
I haven't seen any other DDR2 clock as good as these dimms. Running 3-2-2- at DDR700+ is pretty impressive. Maybe we need to blame the boards or the cpu's for the lack of speed. Im sure if AMD moves to DDR2 running dimms at DDR700 3-2-2 would be pretty damned fast. Reply
CBone - Tuesday, December 21, 2004 - linkHow did the other sticks do in the 1066 FSB bench? I'm going to guess that if there was a difference, it was so slight as to be negligible.
It seems that everyone is waiting for the great white hope in DDR2, but manufacturers are delivering the great white hype. So far it looks like ALL DDR2 performs and overclocks about the same so you should buy as cheap as you can and not bother getting the overpriced Corsair or OCZ. Reply
formulav8 - Tuesday, December 21, 2004 - linkWas it mainly just for the oc or the lower timings? I guess if for ocing it is nice. But for timings it is worthless?? That is what I was trying to understand with my above post.
Jason Reply
formulav8 - Tuesday, December 21, 2004 - linkUnless I was looking at the wrong numbers, this memory is worthless. There was NOT EVEN 1% increase in performance? It increased the points in some benches but by a wopping 0.5%-0.9% on average???
I am not sure why this review is so excited about this memory??
You get a much higher performance increase with DDR1 at low timings compared to high timings. Up to 4-5% increase in almost every bench.
Did I compare the wrong numbers or something??
Jason Reply
Icehawk - Tuesday, December 21, 2004 - linkI'm very impressed that they got dual channel 1gb sticks working so well in DDR2 - wish they could do the same for DDR :( A64 + 2gb DC would be nice... Reply
blckgrffn - Tuesday, December 21, 2004 - linkWell, how does this compare with a nearly equally expensive fx-55 if you buy the best TCCD DDR RAM and play with the mulitplier for a massive overclock? I guess this really might help those who want a massive overclock on the less expensive P4's. Reply
Rapsven - Tuesday, December 21, 2004 - linkThat's pretty impressive.
What's the betting that Mushkin, Corsair, Kingston, and Crucial will come out with equally performing RAM within a week? Reply

BURNLEY missed out on a place in the inaugural Under 21 Premier League Cup final, but gave a good account of themselves against their Premier League counterparts.
The Clarets twice came from behind to have a Manchester City side on edge, until Sinan Bytyqi popped up with his second of the night in the 75th minute to clinch it for Patrick Vieira's side.
But Burnley's development squad can be proud of their performance, with the strong centre half pairing of Alex Coleman and Tom Anderson limiting City to few clear-cut chances, while Steven Hewitt was a livewire throughou.
City were in search of an early goal at Leigh Sports Village, where European champions Bayern Munich had trained earlier in the day.
After putting six past Blackburn Rovers at the same venue in the league two weeks ago they might have fancied their chances of a similar scoreline against alternative East Lancashire opposition.
Seko Fofana shaved the outside of the left post when he squeezed his low shot through the Clarets' defence in the eighth minute.
City were quickly back on the offensive and in front, as Bytyqi drove low across Danijel Nizic and into the bottom corner.
Hewitt, playing in the number 10 role off front man Jason Gilchrist, came close to an immediate equaliser, bending his shot narrowly wide of the far right post from just outside the area.
But Burnley, watched by first team manager Sean Dyche from the stands, were level midway through the half.
In the week that Cameron Dummigan celebrated signing his first professional contract, the right back stepped up to score the equaliser. The exciting Irishman controlled and cut inside to shoot with his left from outside the box, across keeper Ian Lawlor and into the bottom corner. A fine finish.
Fofana went close again in an attempt to restore City's lead, but instead he brought a save from Nizic, low to the keeper's left and tipped around the post.
The Clarets were holding their own, but trailed at the break after Mathias Bossaerts forced his way to the byeline and squared for Jordy Mayifuila to tap in.
Mayifuila, who put four past Rovers last week, went in search of a second early in the second half but stabbed wide from put an early second half chance wide from Bytyqi's right wing cross.
But the Clarets were far from intimidated and got a second wind around the hour mark.
Gilchrist held the ball up with his back to goal to slip Dummigan through on the overlap and the right back forced the corner from which they conjured their second equaliser.
Rangy defender Anderson won a header and Gilchrist – who scored a hat-trick at Old Trafford last season – thumped in.
But a City restored their lead in the 75th minute when an unmarked Bytyqi got on the end of substitute Adam Drury's cross from the right and side-footed in.
Bytyqi was denied a hat-trick six minutes later when he cut in from the left and crashed a shot against the woodwork.
Burnley never gave up on hopes of a third equaliser, but couldn't find a way through.
BURNLEY: Danijel Nizic; Cameron Dummigan, Alex Coleman, Tom Anderson, Luke Conlan (Luke Daly 84); Micah Evans, Luke Gallagher, Nathan Lowe (Jamie Frost 69), Cameron Howieson; Jason Gilchrist, Steve Hewitt.
Subs not used: Callum Jakovlevs, Jack Errington, Ntumba Massanka.
CITY: Ian Lawlor; Mathias Bossearts (Adam Drury 61), Shay Facey, Ellis Plummer, Greg Leigh (Jose Tasende 46); George Glendon; Sinan Bytyqi, Seko Fofana, Olivier Ntcham, Devante Cole (Marcos Lopes 72); Jody Mayifuila.

Home > Yoga Poses > Types of Asana > Back Bends Yoga > Saral Hasta Bhujangasana
Saral Hasta Bhujangasana (straight arm cobra pose)
Cobra pose is one of the very powerful backward bending asana in Hatha Yoga. It has a huge amount of benefits which cover all the body systems.
In this position the body takes the position of cobra, raising its body and preparing to strike.
Taking the asana position
Bring both the hands near the chest and place the palms on the ground with the fingers together pointing forward and thumbs pointed towards the body. The elbows should be raised towards the ceiling close to the body. Place the forehead on the ground.
While inhaling slowly raise the forehead, bend the neck backwards and then slowly raising the shoulders, chest and abdomen from the ground until the arms are straight, very slowly, vertebrae by vertebrae, stretching backwards. Continue to maintain the asana, breathing normally.
The asana position
Inhale and while exhaling slower lower the abdomen, chest and finally the forehead on the ground using the support of the arms.
Place the chin on the floor and return the arms back to the prone position.
Place the chin on the floor and return the arms back to the prone position.
Releasing the asana position
In this position the pressure is felt on the arms and hands as well as the lower back. Over time this pressure can gradually be placed more on to the lower back. One should try to raise the body up with the help of the spine. Once the final position is attained the arms are straight, the chest is forward and open, the shoulders and neck are back and the heels are together. The neck is compressed and the throat is stretched. The facial muscles should be relaxed. The breathing should be normal.
Anatomical focusThe lower back and stretch on the front side of the body.
AwarenessThe arch of the back, relaxing the lower back and normal breathing. Also on abdomen and chest while breathing in a relaxed way through chest.
|Try and keep the arms straight, palms on the ground.
|Try and keep the knees and ankles together, toes pointed.
|Gaze towards the ceiling.
|You can lift the hips and thighs if the back is not flexible.
|Open the chest; pull the shoulders backwards and downwards.
|Relax the lowerback and raise the hips if you experience pain in lowerback.
|Have any distance between the legs.
|Let the shoulders hunch upwards towards the ears.
|Helps to remove backache and neck ache as well as keeping the spine supple and healthy. By arching the spine blood circulation is increased to that region toning the nerves along the spinal column and improving the communication between the brain and the rest of the body.
|The pressure on the abdomen is also beneficial to the abdominal organs and in particular the digestive organs, it stimulates the appetite, relieves flatulence and constipation.
|Tones the kidneys which help with purification of blood, removing any stagnant blood and improving the health of the whole body.
|Strengthens the adrenal glands which is responsible for secretions of adrenaline, cortisol and othe stress hormones, the balancing effect on the hormone secretions is the benefit of asanas.
|Tones the liver, making it beneficial for those with a sluggish liver.
|Helps the functioning of thyroid gland, which is responsible for metabolic activities.
|Expands and opens the chest which encourages deep breathing as well as helping to correct rounded shoulders.
|Useful for slipped disc and sciatica as it relieves the pain and can also relocate the slipped disc.
|In normal day-to-day life we do a lot of forward bending but not much backward bending, therefore it is good to practice for a healthy back and to give general balance to the body.
Benefits for Women
Tones the ovaries and the uterus and helps to alleviate gynaecological disorders such as leucorrhea (irregular vaginal discharge due to an imbalance in oestrogen), dysmenorrhoea (painful menstruation) and amenorrhoea (absent menstruation).
Therapeutic applications
|Back ache
|Neck pain
|Gynaecological disorders
|Sluggish liver
|Impure blood
|Slipped disc
Precautions and Contra-indications
Should not be practiced by those with severe problems of the spine, stomach ulcers, hernias or pregnant women. It should be practiced with care for those with stiff backs and for those who are menstruating. Also not recommended for people with heart diseases. Should not be practiced by those who have undergone surgeries of spine, brain, abdomen, heart and lungs.
To begin with this asana should be held for 5 to ten seconds. It can be repeated 3 to 5 times, depending on the individual?s capacity. With practice the number of repetitions can be increased. At this point reduce the number of repetitions but increase the time. Gradually increase the time to 1 minute. After more practice the time can be increased up to 3 to 5 minutes.
Additional section
Variations and tips
|When practicing the pose some people may have their hips on the ground whilst others will have them lifted. This will depend on two reasons. Firstly the flexibility of the back and secondly the body shape and length of the arms.
|Try to relax the lower back as much as possible when attaining the position as it will be difficult to get a nice arch and stretch in the back if the back is tense. The more the lower back is relaxed, the more the rest of the body will relax.
|To counter balance the stretch in the body practice shalabhasana after saralhasta bhujangasana.
Preparatory poses
|Sahajahasta Bhujangasana
Follow up poses
|Vakrahasta Bhujangasana
|Niralamba Bhujangasana
Ancient textsReference from Gherand Samhita by Sage Gherand
Angushthanabhiparyantmadhobhumau Cha Vinyaset I
Dharaam Karatalabhyam Dhrutvaurdhvasheershah Phaneev Hi II (Gherand Samhita 2 -42)
Meaning -
Touch the body to the ground right from the great toe to the navel. Touch both palms to the ground and raise the head like the hood of the snake.
Dehagnirvardhate Nityan Sarvarogvinashanam I
Jagarti Bhujagi Devi Bhujangasanasadhanaat II (Gherand Samhita 2 ? 43)
Meaning -
On studying Bhujangasana the fire in the body gets stimulated and it destroys all diseases. Moreover the kundalini also gets aroused with the study of this asana.
This asana has been given great importance as it stimulates the digestive fire, this idea of stimulation is related to making the digestive system so strong that it destroys all the diseases by providing proper energy and nutrients to all other parts of the body. Yoga and ayurveda believe in treating the digestion for many problems. So perfect health is achieved if the digestion is perfect. Also the Asana purifies the nadis and purifies the sushumna nadi which awakens the dormant kundalini energy at mooladhar chakra.

15 Ways to Make a Statement in Your Dining Room
The bold horizontal stripes in the guest room in a San Francisco Victorian are "playful and modern," designer Ken Fulk says. What he calls "Rorschach inkblots" on the furry stools and rug loosen up the geometry. French silhouettes of children hang behind the Pottery Barn daybed.

Graphic patterns extend from the foyer in a Washington, D.C. town house through to the kitchen.

I'm learning the wavelet matter with UWT and IUWT wavelet from mlpy package.
The order of coefficient levels in not clear.
In the mlpy documentations, they say that the output after transform is :
X : 2d numpy array (2J * len(x))
misaligned scaling and wavelet coefficients:
[[wavelet coefficients W_1]
[wavelet coefficients W_2]
[wavelet coefficients W_J]
[scaling coefficients V_1]
[scaling coefficients V_2]
[scaling coefficients V_J]]
Generally speaking, the order of coefficient levels is ;
cAn,cDn, cAn-1,cDn-1,cAn-2,cDn-2, cAn-3,cDn-3 for a decomposition at level=3
cA = Approximation coefficients
cD= Detail coefficients
Can somebody confirm that this is the order in UWT wavelet?
This question really stuck me on place. Help will be appreciated.
Thank you very much.

"Great design with a tint of nostalgia. WPD designers are easy to work with - incorporated more wording on the back of the card at my request. Customer service was also top notch. My cards were delayed - WPD happily sent me another batch for next day delivery. Would definitely recommend this design and WPD in general to friends."
"I am so happy with these invitations! They are simple, yet beautiful and classy. I wanted to put all the information (reception and all) on one card, and I needed to make a second set in another language. The designer followed my instructions perfectly and made great suggestions to fit the text on the page. They turned out even better than expected. The paper quality (I used the shimmer paper) was excellent. I would recommend the shimmer paper. I can't say enough about the service as well. The proofs were done so quickly, the people on the phone were amazing and friendly and the package was delivered days ahead of time. The only hiccup I had was that they were unable to tell me what the customs/duties would be so I had to just keep my fingers crossed. In the end, it wasn't so expensive (about $60 for Canada). I would recommend Wedding Paper Divas to any bride-to-be!"
"My color theme for my wedding it a variation of purples and this invitation was just perfect for it. The quality is also great! Delivery was amazingly fast! I am very satisfied with my finished product and would definitely recommend them to anyone."
"We LOVED these wedding invites from the second we saw them and got tons of positive feedback! I love the subtle color variations in the leaf designs (we used the green option - we were having an outdoor summer wedding) and think the font colors complimented it nicely. The only change we made was to put the phrase "reception to follow"and the "and" between our names into Willa Bold font rather than the script font. We were sent proofs promptly, and the designer listened to our suggestions. Overall, the printing quality was excellent, the invites arrived in a timely manner and just as advertised, and the paper was fantastic. What helped most was that we ordered sample invitations from WPD (8 for free) and they send you a super helpful paper stock sample guide. I would highly recommend doing this, because it shows you exactly what you're going to get! Overall, we were super happy with the invitations!"
"My fiance and I fell in love with these invitations because of the beautiful trees. The invitation was simple, yet perfect to describe to our guests the feel of our wedding. The invitations turned out beautifully. I gave the Design 4 stars only because there isn't room to add much else - so the wording you see is really all that will fit (which in reality, is probably a good thing so that the invitation doesn't get too cluttered.)"

• dodder •
Pronunciation: dah-dêr • Hear it!
Part of Speech: Verb, intransitive
Meaning: 1. To walk with an unsteady gait, as if from old age or other frailty, to shuffle, teeter, totter, hobble. 2. To move forward feebly and unsteadily; to muddle, stumble.
Notes: Doddering is associated with the elderly, because our sense of balance deteriorates with time. This is caused, as I understand it, by the crystallization of the fluid in the inner ear. Someone who dodders is a dodderer, the shuffling of whom is known as doddering.
In Play: As I grow older, I try consciously to avoid doddering, but the word occurred to me today because I caught myself doing just that. I don't want the most common expression employing today's Good Word applied to me: "The doddering old fool put his pants on backwards today." (I haven't done that yet.) The second meaning seems to have escaped the editors of most English dictionaries: "The committee keeps doddering along with its planning for the new parking lot."
Word History: We have so much evidence of the history of this word, it leaves the head spinning. This history is strewn with spinoffs, words that are like dodder, all of whose derivational origins are in question. Apparently, the word was taken from Middle Dutch touteren "to waver, totter, swing", or touter "a swing". However, the origin of the Dutch word is clouded in mystery. Is totter a mispronunciation of dodder or vice versa? Does the word come from tot or toddle, also an unsteady walk? Did dodder produce doddle, which ended up dawdle in this order? Or is doddle a mispronunciation of toddle? See what I mean? This word has been around so long, mispronounced so much, picking up so many different meanings along the way, that it leads etymologists in circles within circles within circles.

- "Harry Stunned the Death Eater as they passed..."
- —Mention.[src]
This man was a Death Eater in at least 1998.
Born in or before 1981 to a pure or half-blood family in Great Britain, he procured a magic wand and was trained in the magical arts.
He was hired by Lord Voldemort sometime before May of 1998, and accepted his employment choice.
On the 1 May in 1998, the man was called upon to fight in the Battle of Hogwarts in Scotland.
Sometime throughout the battle, he was stunned by Harry Potter in the Viaduct Courtyard.
His fate is left ambiguous, though it is probable that he was killed or else captured and imprisoned in Azkaban.
Physical appearance
This man had a small black moustache, short black hair, and narrow eyes. He was of an average height and build, with Caucasian skin flushed from the battle. He wore a pair of black boots and a black cape, as well as a shirt that, right before he was Stunned, shone brightly.
Personality and traits
If his occupation reveals his personality, he was a cruel, sadistic person, cunning yet not entirely as intelligent as most people. However, not much is known of this aspect of him, as he was only briefly seen.

Relations with the Kyrgyz Republic
The Kyrgyz Republic cooperates with NATO within the Partnership for Peace and the Euro-Atlantic Partnership Council. NATO and Kyrgyzstan have developed practical cooperation in many areas, with the goal of enhancing regional and global security. The Individual Partnership Cooperation Programme (IPCP) lays out the programme of cooperation between NATO and Kyrgyzstan.
Framework for cooperation
Dialogue takes place within the framework of the Euro-Atlantic Partnership Council (EAPC). The NATO Secretary General's Special Representative for the Caucasus and Central Asia, James Appathurai, conducts high-level political dialogue with Kyrgyz authorities. The NATO Liaison Officer in Central Asia also visits Bishkek regularly and reviews cooperation with the government.
NATO and Kyrgyzstan are developing practical cooperation in a number of areas through the country's Individual Partnership Cooperation Programme (IPCP), which is jointly agreed each year. Key areas include security and peacekeeping cooperation, especially counter-terrorism cooperation and border security, crisis management, and civil emergency planning.
The country joined the PfP Planning and Review Process (PARP) in 2007 to work more closely with the Allies on military interoperability and defence planning initiatives, with objectives underpinned by a set of tailored Partnership Goals.
Kyrgyzstan is expected to attend the meeting on the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) in Afghanistan, which is taking place in expanded format at the NATO Summit in Chicago in May 2012.
Key areas of cooperation
Security cooperation
Kyrgyzstan participates in numerous PfP exercises. The Kyrgyz Government has identified a number of units as available for NATO/PfP operations and training exercises. Participation requires a government decision in each individual case. The units include an infantry company, a special National Guards platoon for counter-terrorism and peacekeeping training, and a border guard company.
NATO and the Kyrgyzstan are also developing an agreement on the transit of surface (rail and road) cargo for ISAF across Kyrgyz territory.
Defence and security sector reform
In consultation with the NATO Allies, Kyrgyzstan is in the process of reforming its armed forces. The PARP, which Kyrgyzstan joined in 2007, has the potential to further assist the government in developing reform plans and activities. These reforms should also enhance Kyrgyzstan's ability to take part in peacekeeping operations alongside NATO forces.
Kyrgyzstan is working to enhance its mountain search and rescue capabilities, and its military command and control structures. Military education plays a role in these processes and cooperation in this area covers a wide range of areas, including language training, search and rescue education and training, border security and control, and the law of armed conflicts and human rights.
Kyrgyzstan also participates in a NATO-supported retraining programme for released military personnel. The goal of the programme is to cushion the socio-economic consequences of the country's restructuring armed forces by facilitating the re-entry of former military personnel into the civilian job market.
Civil emergency planning
Civil emergency planning is a key area of cooperation for Kyrgyzstan. With the Allies, the country is working to improve its effectiveness in responding to natural disasters and emergency situations. Kyrgyzstan is particularly interested in relevant scientific and technical cooperation and the mechanisms available through the Euro-Atlantic Disaster Response Coordination Centre (EADRCC).
Kyrgyzstan has sent experts to relevant seminars at the NATO School in Oberammergau, as well as to relevant discussions at NATO Headquarters.
Science and environment
Scientists from Kyrgyzstan have received grant awards in a range of subject areas under NATO's Science for Peace and Security (SPS) programme.
Scientists from Kyrgyzstan, alongside experts from Belgium, Russia and the Slovak Republic, are working on a project to prevent landslide dam disasters in the Tien Shan, a mountainous region in the Kyrgyz Republic prone to major earthquakes and vulnerable to landslides.
In addition, scientists from the Kyrgyz Republic, United Kingdom, Italy and Uzbekistan have been working together on a project aimed at increasing geo-environmental security in the region of Toktogul Hydroelectric Power Station. Scientists from the Kyrgyz Republic have also been looking at ways to manage uranium industry wastes in order to prevent adverse effects on the health of local populations and the environment.
Kyrgyzstan also participates in the Virtual Silk Highway project, which aims to increase internet access for academic and research communities in countries of the Caucasus and Central Asia through a satellite-based network.
In September 2008, participants from Kyrgyzstan attended an advanced training course on the concept and parameters of the use of force in countering terrorism. In May 2010, scientists and engineers from Kyrgyzstan, as well as other countries from the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) region, took part in a NATO science programme designed to train participants in securing cyber networks. The primary goal of the training was to strengthen the cyber networks of the educational and scientific communities in the CIS region. In total, scientists and experts from the Kyrgyz Republic have had leading roles in 49 activities under the SPS programme.
Public information
Kyrgyzstan and NATO continue working together to increase public understanding of NATO and the benefits of cooperation. This is done through different strands of activities, including visits to NATO Headquarters, international workshops in Kyrgyzstan, and video conferences between NATO and Kyrgyz academic institutions.
Work is ongoing to build and enhance networks with universities, non-governmental organisations, and the press and media in order to increase awareness of the Alliance and Euro-Atlantic security issues in general. To this end, Kyrgyzstan hosted the EAPC youth forum in Bishkek in November 2007.
NATO supports educational activities relevant to security and defence issues and is working with Kyrgyzstan to increase public access to NATO and security-related documents. To this end, NATO and Kyrgyzstan opened a NATO Depository Library at the Diplomatic Academy in Bishkek in February 2009.
In every partner country an embassy of one of the NATO member states serves as a contact point and operates as a channel for disseminating information about the role and policies of the Alliance. The current NATO Contact Point Embassy in Kyrgyzstan is the embassy of Turkey.
Milestones in relations
1992 Kyrgyzstan joins the North Atlantic Cooperation Council, renamed the Euro-Atlantic Partnership Council in 1997. 1994 Kyrgyzstan joins the Partnership for Peace. 2000 NATO's Secretary General visits Kyrgyzstan 2003 Kyrgyzstan is connected to the Virtual Silk Highway. 2004 NATO Secretary General visits Kyrgyzstan 2006 The Allies provide aid to Kyrgyzstan through the EADRCC as heavy snowfall causes extensive damage in the south of the country 2007 Kyrgyzstan joins the PfP Planning and Review Process (PARP). Kyrgyzstan hosts the EAPC youth forum in Bishkek in November. 2008 Kyrgyzstan hosts a Science for Peace and Security-sponsored training course entitled "Use of Force in Countering Terrorism" in Bishkek. 2009 The NATO Depository Library opens at the Diplomatic Academy in Bishkek. Kyrgyzstan officially launches a NATO-supported retraining programme for released military personnel in Bishkek. 2011 In February, the President of Kyrgyzstan, Roza Otunbayeva, visits NATO HQ. In May,the newly appointed Deputy Assistant Secretary General (DASG) for Political and Security Policy and NATO Special Representative for Central Asia, James Appathurai, visits Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan to discuss regional security issues and the expansion of practical cooperation programmes.

Doctoral level trainingEdit
Clinical psychologists in the US undergo many hours of graduate training—usually 4 to 6 years post-Bachelors—in order to gain demonstrable competence and experience. Today, in America, about half of all clinical psychology graduate students are being trained in PhD programs—a model that emphasizes research and is usually housed in universities—with the other half in PsyD programs, which has more focus on practice (similar to professional degrees for medicine and law).[1] Both models envision practicing Clinical Psychology in a research-based, scientifically valid manner, and are accredited by the American Psychological Association[2] and many other English-speaking psychological societies.
Doctorate (PhD and PsyD) programs usually involve some variation on the following 4 to 6 year, 90-unit curriculum:
- Bases of behavior—biological, cognitive-affective, and cultural-social
- Individual differences—personality, lifespan development, psychopathology
- History and systems—development of psychological theories, practices, and scientific knowledge
- Clinical practice—diagnostics, psychological assessment, psychotherapeutic interventions, psychopharmacology, ethical and legal issues
- Clinical experience
- Practicum—usually one or two years of working with clients under supervision in a clinical setting
- Doctoral Internship—usually an intensive one or two year placement in a clinical setting
- Dissertation—PhD programs usually require original quantitative empirical research, while PsyD dissertations often address qualitative research, theoretical scholarship, program evaluation or development, critical literature analysis, or clinical application and analysis
- Specialized electives—many programs offer sets of elective courses for specializations, such as health, child, family, community, or neuropsychology
- Personal psychotherapy—many programs require students to undertake a certain number of hours of personal psychotherapy (with a non-faculty therapist)
Masters level trainingEdit
|Sample Curriculum for MA in Clinical Psychology in the U.S.
|State Required
|School Required
Chemical Dependency: 3
Process and Psychotherapy: 4
Gay and Lesbian Issues: 2
Where subject is required by both the state and the school, it is shown under the school's required column. Similar courses have been lumped together, for example "Group Treatment Techniques" and "Couples Counseling" were combined, their units added together and called "Group and Couples Treatment"—just to keep the table of manageable size.
There are a number of U.S. schools offering accredited programs in clinical psychology resulting in a Masters degree. Such programs can range from 48 to 84 units, most often taking 2 to 3 years to complete post-Bachelors. Training usually emphasizes theory and treatment over research, quite often with a focus on school or couples and family counseling. Similar to doctoral programs, Masters-level students usually must fulfill time in a clinical practicum under supervision and undergo a minimum amount of personal psychotherapy.[3] While many graduates from Masters-level training go on to doctoral programs, a large number also go directly into practice—often as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), Marriage and Family Therapist (MFT) or other similar license.[4]
Other related licenses open to Masters-level graduates in the US include: Marriage and Family Therapist (MFT), Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), and Licensed Psychological Associate. (LPA).
Training in BritainEdit
In the U.K., clinical psychologists undertake a DClinPsy (or similar), which is a doctorate with both clinical and research components. This is a three-year full-time salaried program sponsored by the National Health Service (NHS). Entry into these programs is highly competitive, and requires at least a three-year undergraduate degree in psychology approved by the British Psychological Society or an approved conversion course, plus some form of experience, usually in either the NHS as an Assistant Psychologist or in academia as a Research Assistant.[5]
In the UK there are currently no protected 'psychologist' titles. Indeed there are people using the title 'psychologist' who have no training in BPS accredited or unaccredited psychology courses at any level. The term clinical psychologist, counselling psychologist etc can be used perfectly legally by any member of the public for any purpose. There have been recent discoveries of clinical psychologists working in the NHS ( one for over 12 years!!!) with no psychology training at all! They were taken to court and convicted, not for use of the title, but for lying about their qualifications and misrepresentation.
Clinical psychologists are also not required to be licensed in the UK. There is no license that we apply for or maintain in order to continue practicing. In fact a large number of clinical psychologists are not a member of any professional body whatsoever. It is not a requirement that we are members of the British Psychological Society in order to enroll on our bachelors or doctoral training, but it is a requirement that we meet the BPS criteria for the Graduate Basis for Registration before being accepted on to doctoral training.
The current state of affairs rests with statutory regulation being a possible but distant future. The government are reluctant to create more regulatory authorities (such as the General Medical Council) and would prefer to encourage self-regulation by psychologists. The compromise was to contain psychologists under the Health Professions Council but this proved to be completely unsatisfactory and ineffectual. So clinical psychology remains completely unregulated, unlicensed and all titles are unprotected.
Professional practiceEdit
Clinical psychologists can offer a range of professional services, including:[6]
- Provide psychological treatment (psychotherapy)
- Administer and interpret psychological assessment and testing
- Conduct psychological research
- Teaching
- Development of prevention programs
- Consultation (especially with schools and businesses)
- Program administration
- Provide expert testimony (forensics)
In practice, clinical psychologists may work with individuals, couples, families, or groups in a variety of settings, including private practices, hospitals, mental health organizations, schools, businesses, and non-profit agencies. Most clinical psychologists who engage in research and teaching do so within a college or university setting. Clinical psychologists may also choose to specialize in a particular field—common areas of specialization, some of which can earn board certification,[7] include:
The practice of clinical psychology requires a license in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and many other countries. Although each of the U.S. states is somewhat different in terms of requirements and licenses (see [1] and [2] for examples), there are three common elements:[8]
- Graduation from an accredited school with the appropriate degree
- Completion of supervised clinical experience
- Passing a written examination and, in some states, an oral examination

All U.S. state and Canada province licensing boards are members of the Association of State and Provincial Psychology Boards (ASPPB) which created and maintains the Examination for Professional Practice in Psychology (EPPP). Many states require other examinations in addition to the EPPP, such as a jurisprudence (i.e. mental health law) examination and/or an oral examination.[8] Most states also require a certain number of continuing education credits per year in order to renew a license, which can be obtained though various means, such as taking audited classes and attending approved workshops.
There are several licenses that allow one to practice clinical psychology, usually awarded in relation to one's educational degree.
- Psychologist. To practice with the title of Psychologist, in almost all cases a Doctorate degree is required (a PhD or PsyD in the U.S.). Normally, after the degree, the practitioner must fulfill a certain number of supervised postdoctoral hours (usually taking 1 to 2 years), and passing the EPPP and any other provincial exams.[15]
- Marriage and Family Therapist (MFT). An MFT license requires a Doctorate or Masters degree. In addition, it usually involves 2 years of post-degree clinical experience under supervision, and licensure requires passing a written exam, commonly the National Examination for Marriage and Family Therapists which is maintained by the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy. In addition, most states require an oral exam. MFTs, as the title implies, work mostly with families and couples, addressing a wide range of common psychological problems.[16]
- Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). Similar to the MFT, the LPC license requires a Masters or Doctorate degree, a minimum number of hours of supervised clinical experience in a pre-doc practicum, and the passing of the National Counselor Exam. Similar licenses are the Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC), and Clinical Counselor in Mental Health (CCMH). In some states, after passing the exam, a temporary LPC license is awarded and the clinician may begin the normal 3000-hour supervised internship leading to the full license allowing for the practice as a counselor or psychotherapist, usually under the supervision of a licensed psychologist.[17]
- Licensed Psychological Associate. (LPA) About twenty-six states offer a Masters-only license, a common one being the LPA, which allows for the therapist to either practice independently or (more commonly) under the supervision of a licensed psychologist, depending on the state.[4] Common requirements are 2 to 4 years of post-Masters supervised clinical experience and passing a Psychological Associates Examination. Other titles for this level of licensing include Psychological Technician (Alabama), Psychological Assistant (California), Licensed Clinical Psychotherapist (Kansas), Licensed Psychological Practitioner (Minnesota), Licensed Behavioral Practitioner (Oklahoma), or Psychological Examiner (Tennessee).
In the U.K., many mental health titles, including "psychologist", are not protected—although statutory registration of all the mental health professions is planned in the near future to help the public know who is qualified to practice. Currently, protected titles include "clinical psychologist", "counselling psychologist", and "educational psychologist". One can also become "Chartered" by the British Psychological Society. The title of "Assistant Psychologist" is used by a psychology graduate under the supervision of a qualified clinical psychologist, and the title "Trainee Clinical Psychologist" is used during the three-year doctoral program.
