text: Envision Solar International, Inc., (OTCBB: EVSI), a leading sustainable infrastructure designer and developer, announced today that the company has been selected by General Motors, LLC to install its CleanCharge™ solar powered electric-vehicle (EV) charging stations integrated into EnvisionTrak™ tracking Solar Trees® at a number of prominent locations. "We are pleased to have been selected by General Motors for these strategic installations that will enable Chevy Volts to leverage clean solar power to recharge their batteries without relying on carbon fuel generated electricity," said Bob Noble, CEO of Envision Solar. "We applaud GM's commitment to clean energy as well as green job creation through this initiative." The Chevy Volt extended-range electric car is expected to hit showrooms in November 2010 and will be rolled out initially in California, Michigan, Washington, D.C., Texas and New York. New Jersey and Connecticut will join in mid-2011. "GM is committed to reducing carbon emissions and reliance on petroleum," said Tom Stephens, GM vice chairman, global product operations. "We chose Envision Solar because its clean charging infrastructure allows us to maximize the environmental benefits of our electric vehicles through the use of clean renewable energy and further demonstrates our commitment to the proliferation of sustainable EV charging infrastructure." Envision Solar's Solar Tree with EnvisionTrak™ is a highly engineered parking lot solar array that is 20 to 25 percent more productive than conventional fixed solar arrays, due to the incorporation of dual access tracking which enables the canopy to follow the sun throughout the day. "We have designed this technology with an architectural focus that enhances the overall aesthetic of corporate and commercial campuses," Noble added. "The addition of our CleanCharge system makes this a truly comprehensive design and technology package, offering a value-added investment for businesses anticipating the dramatic growth in the electric vehicle market over the next decade."

Last time, we looked at some major Scottsdale and Tucson resorts for great golf getaways. Now lets look at some daily-fee courses with intelligent designs that raise the bar not only in the state, but the entire country.
The great story of We-ko-pa Golf Club, (http://www.wekopa.com), in the Fort McDowell region of Scottsdale is beginning to spread, and We-ko-pa is more than ready for its close-up. We-ko-pa (Yavapai for 'Four Peaks,' the name of a nearby mountain range) is not just another pretty resort in the desert in the desert. At the Cholla Course Scott Miller has produced his most daring and interesting work to date. At the Saguaro Course, Ben Crenshaw and Bill Coore built a stellar rejoinder to their other Scottsdale minimalist masterpiece at Talking Stick (North Course). In both cases, the Yavapai Indian Nation had the courage to think out of the box and embrace one of the wisest trends in the golf industry: spend less money, and move less earth to get a better golf course.
Miller used diagonally placed dry washes as the bulk of the Cholla course's hazards. On many holes there are hazards in the direct line of flight between the tee box and the green: sometimes a bunker, sometimes a dry wash, other times a stately specimen Saguaro cactus. Fairways can be as wide as 80 yards, to accommodate ways around these center-line hazards, offering multiple angles of play both to the left or right. You could also try to pound one over the hazard or lay up short. Miller also uses optical illusions, frequently placing bunkers thirty yards short of the green, while making them greenside from the fairway.
For an encore, the Yavapai hired Crenshaw and Coore, who had already scored significant successes in the desert with Talking Stick North, to build the second course and make the entire facility one of the connoisseurs choices in a hyper-competitive market flush with great golf.
Although the course is minimalist, it preserves and showcases the sites stunning natural features. It doesnt bulldoze them into oblivion, said Scottsdales Brian Roswig. Coore and Crenshaw are also masters of strategic bunkering, and their use of diagonal hazards creates cunning holes where you really have to play smart golf. It rivals The Boulders, I think.
If youre going to see one Coore and Crenshaw in the Valley, you might as well see two and play Talking Sticks North Course. Once again, the designers moved almost no earth in routing the golf course. By recreating the firm, fast conditions of the U.K., there is a lot of bump and run, one bounce and on iron play, and feeding the ball to hole locations. The course is so flat and open, that it plays havoc with depth perception.
Most greens are open in front to promote the bump and run. As its public golf, we wanted some spots that are forgiving for the public player, said architect Bill Coore. It was a totally flat property and Ben and I wanted to have the course reflect that in its contouring. In order to make it blend with its surroundings, we made wide holes. There is a lot of latitude, but we still were able to present interesting playing concepts, he explained. Take one of my favorites, the short par-4 12th, they all could drive the green or hit it out of bounds or can make birdie by playing safe.
Both We-ko-pas and Talking Sticks broad general appeal and reasonable price show exactly how good a course minimalism can produce. Less is more.
Since launching his first golf writing website in 2004, Jay Flemma's comparative analysis of golf designs and knowledge of golf course architecture and golf travel have garnered wide industry respect. In researching his book on America's great public golf courses (and whether they're worth the money), Jay, an associate editor of Cybergolf, has played over 260 nationally ranked public golf courses in 39 different states. Jay has played about 1,649,000 yards of golf - or roughly 938 miles. His pieces on travel and architecture appear in Golf Observer, Cybergolf and other print magazines. When not researching golf courses for design, value and excitement, Jay is an entertainment, copyright, Internet and trademark lawyer and an Entertainment and Internet Law professor in Manhattan.

The Circle is a monthly link-up that was born with dreams of creating a place for bloggers to get to know one another just a little bit better and to make new friends. Hosted by Kiki at 'In It's Time' on the third Wednesday of each month. This monthly link-up is a place for bloggers to share and write on a fun, light-hearted (or possibly heavy-hearted) topics.
While Kiki has decided to discontinue hosting the linkup; I like the concept, so will be using a list of blog post prompts to continue the tradition.
This month's prompt is: What is the scariest thing you have ever eaten?
My oldest aunt lives in Hawaii, and is a bonafide hippy. She was raised on a small ranch in SW Colorado, to some very down to Earth Christian parents, and was elated to leave the area behind and reinvent herself. Growing up, I was led to believe that she was the family weirdo. As an adult, for the most part, she is the one that I share the most in common with.
Isn't it funny how life works out sometimes?
But every time I am at one of those kitschy gas stations (you know the ones they have in New Mexico) I look for the candy, just for fun. (And you know, to terrify whomever I happen to be with at the time.)

PepsiCo's diverse and innovative supply chain enables our continued growth by providing a sustainable competitive advantage. It's our passion to create the best products for our global consumer base and to make and deliver them safely, quickly and accurately. Innovation that drives these processes can be found in every level of PepisCo's supply chain. The future of PepsiCo will be shaped by our commitment to hiring the best talent and making them even better – building strong, diverse, and nimble teams while providing people with rewarding and challenging careers.
"My proudest moments are when I can help develop new leaders and frontline employees. It's so rewarding to contribute to their success and see them get promoted."
Stephanie began her career with PepsiCo as a temporary employee at the QTG (Quaker, Tropicana, and Gatorade) warehouse in Tracy, California.
"The position was supposed to be temporary," says Stephanie, "but the folks there found me to be a great asset and it led me in directions I never imagined."
Over the course of three years, Stephanie traveled to six different states and developed a specialty in training new employees. She was also cross-trained in multiple positions, and was eventually hired on full-time as an inventory control specialist.
"My manager at the time was fully invested in my success as a person and with my career at PepsiCo," she says. "That's been a common theme with all of my subsequent managers."
Throughout her career journey, Stephanie has held a variety of other roles including delivery processor, back-up transportation scheduler, supply planner and, most recently, demand planner. One of her proudest moments was the completion of an organizational health video that focuses on PepsiCo's Performance with Purpose platform. Along the way, her managers encouraged her to go back to school and earn a degree by taking advantage of PepsiCo's tuition reimbursement program.
"I chose to stay with Pepsi because I was encouraged to be a better person. The environment is inclusive, and everyone I've worked with has become a friend," she says. "PepsiCo invests in your future, believes in you, and provides opportunity if you seek it out and work hard for it. I've gained an abundance of confidence in my abilities, and I truly believe working for PepsiCo has been the best thing that could have ever happened to me."
When asked to sum up her PepsiCo experience, Stephanie proudly proclaims, "The sky is the limit in developing yourself, and in your ability to positively impact the world around you."
Manny Valente found himself at PepsiCo because he wanted to be part of a global organization.
"I wanted to be in a fast-paced and challenging environment that would give me the opportunity to excel," he says. "That's exactly what I found at PepsiCo."
He started with the organization in 2003 as a product availability supervisor at the Piscataway, New Jersey plant. He was later promoted to production supervisor and successfully completed the Bottle/Can Line University in 2006. Manny further diversified his skills in supply chain operations when he was promoted to quality control supervisor, and later into the maintenance organization. In 2012, he became a maintenance supervisor and performed that role until another promotion made him a department manager in production.
One of his proudest PepsiCo moments was playing a leading role in helping the plant pass the rigorous AIB food safety audit in the first year of the program. The strong performance of Manny and his team helped set the tone for other PepsiCo plants to reach new heights for quality and safety.
Manny describes his PepsiCo experience with two just words: "fast and furious."
Although Eric's career started with PepsiCo in 1997, he's been a part of the family since 1986, when his father started working in our Munster, Indiana plant as a tank washer.
"The day my dad got his first paycheck from PepsiCo, he took all of the neighborhood boys out for ice-cream. My dad seemed so proud," says Eric. "I still remember how happy he was heading out for the night shift wearing his Pepsi blue shirt. One day he took me to work and I was just staring in amazement at the can line. I think that was the day we both realized I would probably work for PepsiCo when I grew up."
Eric joined the company in college, working summers as a night loader in that same Munster plant. He started full-time in 1999 as a machine operator on a fill line. This was the start of Eric's journey, and since then he has worked across several areas of PepsiCo's supply chain, including operations, warehousing, quality and production. He's been promoted several times and is now the manufacturing leader in our St. Louis, Missouri plant.
Eric's focus and tenacity have helped him create a very positive experience for himself and others at PepsiCo. "I've been extremely fortunate to work my way up through different positions, and I've received many acknowledgments and rewards along the way," he says. "But my proudest moments are when I can help develop new leaders and frontline employees. It's so rewarding to contribute to their success and see them get promoted.
Khari was immediately attracted to PepsiCo's Campus Development Program and started her journey in Virginia's New River Valley facility. As a campus hire, she was given the opportunity to supervise the frontline workforce almost immediately. She then transitioned into production, assisting with audits and line improvements, and would later make positive contributions as a warehouse supervisor in Piscataway, New Jersey.
In her most recent role as a production supervisor, Khari works on major process improvement projects and partners with the maintenance, quality and safety teams to drive high performance across the board. She's proud of the role she played when her facility experienced a rare and unexpected ammonia leak. All employees were immediately evacuated, and over the following week she oversaw her team's temporary relocation and partnership with a neighboring PepsiCo facility.
"Both teams showed such passion and commitment to rise through the challenges without complaint," says Khari. "That event only heightened my respect for my coworkers, and they inspired me to handle complex challenges with the same level of professionalism. Through the various roles I've held, I've learned the challenges each department faces and the balance required to be a successful plant and company."
Wherever her work takes her, Khari proudly touts her plant's motto: "Pepsi Piscataway: Addicted to Success, Allergic to Failure."
Deardra is a plant director supporting the Quaker Foods business in Chicago, Illinois. She started her career at PepsiCo in Las Vegas as a warehouse manager, and over time she's worked at several plants throughout our foods and beverage businesses. In more than ten years working for PepsiCo, she has participated in several major change implementations to help the company prepare for the future and uphold its industry-leading status. Her proudest moment at PepsiCo involved the turnaround of the Chicago 51st Street Plant.
In a plant with a heavy union presence, Deardra and her team worked to bring various groups together in pursuit of common goals. They instituted employee-based work groups to help resolve conflicts, and developed new ways to celebrate successes as a united team.
"I was able to help change the culture in our plant to create a spirit of true collaboration," she says. "It was an honor and privilege to be a part of such a success story."
As a result of her work, Deardra received the PepsiCo True Excellence Award under the category of "Respect Each Other."
When asked what word or phrase best describes her experience with PepsiCo, Deardra says: "Looks like work, feels like family." "PepsiCo empowers leaders to make decisions to reach required business results," she says. "It takes courage, confidence and skill. And when it's done correctly, it is very rewarding."

Verizon is responding to the concerns of many worried individuals in Congress. In a response to Massachusetts Congressman Ed Markey, Verizon has said that they will put a sticker on every phone warning users that they tracked their locations. The removable screen notice would specifically mention that the wireless carriers associated the location data with customer information. Subscribers would then be asked to check their location settings if they were concerned and to be "cautious" when it came to allowing privileges for specific applications.
Microsoft has announced a security alert for Xbox Live today.

D-backs overpowered by Padres in blowout loss
PHOENIX (AP) — Tyler Skaggs needs to work on his control — of his pitches and his emotions.
"For whatever reason, he had no command of his fastball," manager Kirk Gibson said after Skaggs and the Diamondbacks lost 12-3 to the Padres on Saturday night. "He was trying to throw the ball in and couldn't get it in there. He is obviously struggling. He gets guys on base and puts some pressure on. You can see by his mannerisms he feels it a little bit."
Skaggs' next opportunity to work on his command and his nerves will come in the minors. After the game, the left-hander was optioned to Triple-A Reno.
"Up here you need to throw a fastball, you need to throw it for strikes and work it in and out," Skaggs said. "I haven't been doing that. I'm only 22, so I have a lot more starts ahead of me."
San Diego managed only three hits off Skaggs (2-3) but took advantage of the rookie's wildness to open an 8-1 lead after four innings.
With the game tied 1-1, Skaggs retired the first two batters he faced in the third. But he walked Chris Denorfia, hit Chase Headley with a pitch, walked Carlos Quentin to load the bases and then walked Jesus Guzman to force in Denorfia. Yonder Alonso followed with a bases-clearing double into the right-field corner to give the Padres a 5-1 lead.
"The third inning, I had two quick outs then could not find the zone," Skaggs said. "I could not find the zone with any pitch. It's really tough. That's probably one of the hardest things to do in sports."
In the fourth, Skaggs walked Cashner with one out before giving up a two-run, two-out home run to Denorfia to make it 7-1. Tony Sipp then came on in relief, but Headley drove his first pitch into the left-field stands to stretch the lead to 8-1.
Skaggs allowed seven runs on three hits, five walks and a hit batter while striking out five over a career-worst 3 2/3 innings.
"He wants to be so perfect," Montero said. "He put too much pressure on himself. That is not going to help him. You have to relax a little bit. You have to make one pitch at a time, and that is when you are going to get out of a jam. But if you try to make just one pitch and get three outs it is tough to do."
Padres starter Andrew Cashner also walked five batters. But unlike Skaggs, he was able to escape a pair of jams with inning-ending double plays.
Cashner (7-5) allowed three runs on four hits and five walks while striking out five for his second straight win, both coming during San Diego's second consecutive 10-game road trip.
Cashner also hit his first career home run.
Denorfia and Headley added back-to-back home runs, Alonso drove in four runs and Quentin had three RBIs for the Padres, who have won two of their last three and four of six.
Paul Goldschmidt and Miguel Montero homered for the Diamondbacks, who had their two-game winning streak snapped.
San Diego took a 1-0 lead in the first when Denorfia walked and scored on Quentin's two-out double. Arizona tied the game in the second on Montero's third home run in his past seven games; he had missed the previous three games with a sore back.
Long after Skaggs had departed, Goldschmidt's one-out homer in the fifth, his 23rd, pulled the D-backs within 8-3.
Cashner homered off Josh Collmenter with one out in the sixth, and Quentin and Alonso added RBI singles during the Padres' three-run ninth against David Hernandez.
NOTES: Alonso has nine RBIs in nine games since the All-Star break. … Skaggs had issued 10 total walks in 35 innings across previous six starts. … Denorfia's nine home runs against the Diamondbacks are the most among active Padres. … Denorfia and Headley were the fourth set of Padres to hit consecutive home runs this season. … LHP Patrick Corbin (12-1, 2.31 ERA) will look to remain unbeaten at home when he takes on RHP Tyson Ross (1-4, 3.35) in the series finale. Corbin is 8-0 at Chase Field, the second-most home wins in the majors. Ross snapped a 12-game losing streak when he held the Brewers to two hits and two walks in the Padres' 6-2 win last week.

Dave Sholler distinctly recalls a conversation he had with his grandfather, Donald Wadley, when he was 15 years old. Wadley, a proud, Polish man from Philadelphia, was a father figure to Sholler, who grew up in what he calls "trying circumstances" in Egg Harbor Township.
"It was a tough time for my family," Sholler, now 32, recounted in a telephone interview last week. "And my grandfather said, 'Don't worry, Dave, put your head down, grind it out, you're going to make something for yourself.' And, for whatever reason, I looked him in the eye and I said, 'Grandpop, I know, because one day I'm going to be here in Philadelphia and I'm going to help a team win a world championship.' That conversation has stuck with me forever."
Wadley passed away in 2010, but his grandson now has an opportunity to make that prediction come true.
Sholler will leave his position as vice president of public relations, athlete marketing and development for the Ultimate Fighting Championship to take a similar position with the NBA's Philadelphia 76ers, the team that he interned with as a Stockton University student in 2004. Sholler will oversee all communications on both the sporting and business sides for the Sixers, who are overhauling their franchise after more than three decades without an NBA title.
"I have been so blessed and so fortunate to accomplish what I've accomplished in the UFC, but I'm incredibly motivated by challenges," Sholler said. "The Sixers organization is one that I'm so passionate about, and one that has tremendous leadership. I hope in my journey with the Sixers to be able to deliver on the goal that I told my grandfather about."
Sholler will exit the UFC following the landmark UFC 205 event Nov. 12 at New York's Madison Square Garden. Sholler has become a regular feature at UFC press conferences, most notably when unsuccessfully trying to separate Jon Jones and Daniel Cormier when they scrapped on stage ahead of UFC 178.
Sholler has lived in Las Vegas, where the UFC is based, for the past eight years. He said the opportunity for he and his wife, Tiffany, to raise their 3-year-old twin daughters Lucy and Lindleigh back home in South Jersey was a key factor in the decision.
Sholler is a 2002 graduate of Egg Harbor Township High School and received his bachelor's degree in communications with a minor in business from Stockton in 2006.
Sholler will work closely with the 76ers, helping to market the Sixers to fans as well as help with the corporate communications process.
The Sixers' last championship was in 1983, and they've been criticized in recent years for "tanking" in order to get higher draft picks. The rebuilding process has also been slowed by injuries. This year's No. 2 overall pick, Ben Simmons, is out indefinitely with a foot injury sustained on the last day of training camp last month at Stockton.
But Sholler sees a bright future for the Sixers on the not-so-distant horizon. The team just launched its new, state-of-the-art 125,000-square-foot training complex in Camden, the largest in the NBA.
"It's such an exciting time for the 76ers, and I'm just so impressed with the vision, the mindset and innovation," Sholler said of the Sixers' front office. "They're just very forward-thinking. And if you look at the roster this team has assembled … It's just a collection of really talented people both on the court and off the court.
"When you put that all together, it was a no-brainer for me," he said. "I had to be a part of this organization, and I want to be there as the plane starts to take off from the runway again. There's no reason to believe this team can't be a serious contender for a championship in the next few years."

When developing a remarketing strategy, it is important to consider different ways of reaching a variety of audiences. With this in mind, I recommend linking your remarketing and social media presence through Facebook audience targeting. There are 3 areas that should be considered: standard audience targeting, similar audience lists and remarketing to mail lists.
Keywords are the fundamental building blocks of any paid search account. When you first launch a PPC account you will always have a list of keywords. It is crucial that you continue to find and develop new keywords so your account can grow and maximize impressions. There are 2 approaches to keyword development: 1) Proactive 2) Reactive.
Are you taking advantage of the Audiences tab in AdWords? If not, why not? This tab gives you the option to add audiences (groups of users who have visited your site) to your existing search campaigns and bid differently for them. This technique is known as Remarketing List For Search Ads (RLSA's).

Turkey jails German journalist on trumped-up charges
Wasn't Merkel's appeasement supposed to prevent trouble from the Caliphate?
Appeasement didn't work for Chamberlain (she should know that), and it won't work now. In a statement, Merkel called the court's decision "bitter and disappointing." Her response is what is "bitter and disappointing." Cowed by the caliph.
This was President Obama's "most trusted," "favorite" ally. Tells you everything you need to know about Obama's reign.
Turkey jails German journalist on terrorism charges
The Local, February 28, 2017:
A court in Istanbul on Monday ordered provisional detention for a correspondent of the German newspaper Die Welt, a move that drew a stern rebuke from Chancellor Angela Merkel.
The newspaper said Deniz Yücel, 43, had been charged with spreading terrorist propaganda and inciting hatred.
He has been held since February 18th in connection with news reports on an attack by hackers against the email account of Turkey's energy minister.
The minister, Berat Albayrak, is a son-in-law of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, and Die Welt said the emails also pointed to efforts to control Turkish media groups and to manipulate public opinion via fake social media accounts.
In a statement, Merkel called the court's decision "bitter and disappointing".
"The government expects that in handling Yücel's case, Turkey's justice system will keep in mind the significant importance of press freedom in all democratic societies," she added.
Relations between Berlin and Ankara have been strained by a series of disputes since the failed coup attempt to oust Erdogan in July 2016.

Welcome back, avid readers (okay, that's probably just my wife)! I've been deep in a project and most of my blogging has been on the AIS blog recently. However, I'm going to chronicle my certification path on this site. I had my annual review back in February and the big growth goal that was asked of me was to earn a Microsoft Certified Solutions Developer (MCSD) and Microsoft Certified Solutions Expert (MCSE) on SharePoint 2013 by the end of the year. This was already a goal of mine as a bit of a New Year resolution, but this makes it a bit easier to not let it slide.
Over the last couple of years, I've become very interested in earning the Microsoft Certified Solutions Master (MCSM...Formerly MCM - Microsoft Certified Master). Since I've committed myself to the SharePoint Asylum, it makes sense that I go for that particular one. If you're not familiar with the MCSM, it's not your run-of-the-mill certification. It sounds like one of the most grueling programs I've heard of. A recent post by Kirk Evans only further supports this statement.
I won't go into too much detail, but the qualifications for acceptance to the program starts with the MCSD and MCSE. After that, you have to interview with some of the smartest people on the technology (likely other MCMs). Then there's the actual program. There are now two program options: a 3-week program in Redmond or a hybrid program that consists on 1 week in Redmond and 9 weeks remote. At the end of this comes two exams. The first is the written exam, which sounds like it really is a WRITTEN exam and not a multiple guess exam like the other Microsoft exams. Second, is the qualification lab which actually tests what you know (and probably a lot of what you just learned in the 3 or 10 week program). As Kirk describes it, it's 8.5 hours of work that would normally be billed at a month. Easy, right? To top it all off, you only get 3 shots at each test before you have to retake the entire course...which comes in at a modest $18,500 + $125 application fee. Don't forget, that doesn't cover room, board, and airfare, either.
If you actually survive all of this, I imagine it pretty much assures job security in SharePoint as anyone who succeeds really KNOWS SharePoint. That's the main reason I'm interested as that means that I'll have no problem providing for my family. Admittedly, I hope it also helps me work my way into the big conference speaking, too. Another goal of mine is to speak at a SharePoint Conference, Tech Ed, or a similar venue.
What's that mean for this series?
I'm going to use this series as a way to share my thoughts on the exams and how I prepared. Hopefully, there won't be many instances of exam retakes, but I figure I'll need my fair share of Second Shot offers.
I've already finished 70-480: Programming in HTML5 with JavaScript and CSS3. I'll follow up with a post on that soon. I'm registered for
71 70-488: Developing Microsoft SharePoint Server 2013 Core Solutions and 71 70-489: Developing Microsoft SharePoint Server 2013 Advanced Solutions. These are the Beta exams for the MCSD. While I'm waiting to get those results back, I'm going to prepare for 70-486: Developing ASP.NET MVC 4 Web Applications. That's 4 exams for the MCSD: SharePoint 2013.
The MCSE: SharePoint 2013 consists of 5 exams. Three of these exams will earn a Microsoft Certified Solutions Associate (MCSA) on Windows Server 2012. Only two will be directly related to SharePoint 2013. It's obvious that SharePoint, and thus its related certifications, is placing more importance on other Microsoft technologies, such as Windows Server and ASP.Net MVC, than before. I'll try to share my thoughts on this as I cover the exams, as well.

kekology4 posted a topic in Interdisciplinary StudiesHello! I thought I would start a thread for women's/feminist/gender studies applicants for fall 2017 to share stories, provide support, etc! I am so nervous... I have applied to four phd programs: emory, ucsc, ucla, and stonybrook, and 3 american studies phd programs: yale, harvard, and nyu. I really want to get in somewhere!! This application process has been so stressful, I'd hate to have to do it again. Where are y'all applying? How has the application process been for you?
hulaprissy posted a topic in Interdisciplinary StudiesHi all~~ I am recently preparing for my application to the PhD programmes in the U.S. I wanna wok on women and workplace justice. I want to explore opportunities from the feminist / women's studies departments in the US universities. So far I have looked into the one in UCSB, U of Washington, and U of Michigan. I am a little bit lost when I try to shortlist and find all these feminist departments. May I ask if any of you can provide me some insights as to which feminist departments I should also explore? Thanks very much!!

Perhaps Jim Boeheim was testy after a tough loss to Michigan or maybe he's just sensitive about his age, but the Syracuse coach was not happy about a question regarding possible retirement. CBSSports.com's Gregg Doyel asked Boeheim "When do you think you'll decide, announce, whatever whether or not you're coming back next year or do you already know?" Boeheim was not happy with the question and said he wouldn't answer it unless every coach had to answer it. Doyel mentioned that the same question is posed to college players and that "they handle it better than you." The 68-year-old coach responded with snark saying, "You ask a 19-year-old if he's going to retire? If you're going to say something smart at least be smart." Check out the back and forth between Boeheim and Doyel below.

We report on the generation of combined FSK/IM modulation format by using GCSR tunable laser sources. FSK modulation, up to 100 Mbit/s, has been achieved by modulating the phase section of a GCSR laser source. We experimentally demonstrate generation of combined FSK/IM modulation at 100Mbit/s and 10 Gbit/s, respectively. We also report on successful FSK label insertion using a SOA-MZI wavelength converter.

hint for parallel running
On these days I'm running some simulations with MRFSimpleFoam solver, concerning a marine propeller. I tried different method of decomposition and I saw that metis is a bit faster than simple one (along rotation axe). I also tried to test a different use of cluster noded (I can use 1, 2 or 3 8CPU-nodes on a cluster). I'm very surprised to find out that simulations are faster on 1 single node (with 2 nodes a single iteration takes almost a double time). I know that communication among more nodes can be difficult but all this difference looks too much to me). Are there any hints or specific settings in decomposeParDict to have a better running? Maybe does it depend on the globalFaceZones? This is my decomposeParDict:
numberOfSubdomains 8;
Please, any idea? I checked the decomposition out: the cells are equally shared by CPUS. Can 'large' areas of globalFaceZones affect the parallel computing and make a 1-node simulation faster than a 2- or 3-nodes one? I can't understand all that difference in time consumption.

I'd like to know why girls do this.
There are even profiles of girls "seeing someone" who still want to meet guys off of dating sites. To me that is asking for trouble and I figure the only guys that would contact such a girl would either hope to steal her from the guy she is seeing or just hook up with her.
Please keep in mind I'm not referring to uncommitted dating. I'm talking about profiles that specifically say friends only.
Most Helpful Girl
Seeing someone doesn't mean that you're in a serious relationship. Just because you're casually dating a guy doesn't mean you can't find someone else. Some women put "just friends" so as to lower the expectation of a potential guy they date. Because if you put "fun" then he may automatically expect sex when you're not even sure about him yet, or if you put "relationship" then he's thinking you want something serious.43|10|1

Get a 3-Day Trial at Next Door Buddies - Only $1.00
Conan McGuire is a new exclusive hunk working for Next Door Studios and a couple of weeks back he filmed his debut jack-off scene for Next Door Male. This week he's back with his real-life buddy and they're fucking in their first scene together for Next Door Buddies. Actually, this is the first time the friends have fucked together -- ever.
According to the B-roll, Conan McGuire and Jake Davis are real-life buddies. When Conan discovered some of Jake's videos online he approached his pal about hooking him up with some work. He apparently needed the money. (Don't they always?) Jake was only too happy to help, but suggested that since they haven't had a chance to fuck in real life, and they've always wanted to, why not do their first scene together.
It's a nice story, and frankly I don't care if it's true or a line of malarkey, Conan McGuire is a hot beefcake stud and I'd watch him reading the proverbial phone book in the nude. He's got a massive pair of legs, which you'll fully appreciate while he's squatting over Jake and plunging his dick down into his buddy's hole. Conan also fucks Jake from behind, on his stomach, and finally on his back where he fucks the cum out of him. Looks like Conan has the hang of this guy-on-guy sex thing, I can't wait to see more.

Need convincing that full-size luxury sedans don't need a V-8 for a fun driving experience? Cars.com reviewer Kelsey Mays says you need look no further than the 2013 Jaguar XJ. The XJ's supercharged 3.0-liter V-6 offers plenty of acceleration and torque to power its remarkably light frame around the curves of a winding road. Simulated gauges and touch-screen responsiveness come up a little short, and Jaguar has earned a rep for being reliably unreliable — but you might be having too much fun to care.

Iran's state radio said Tuesday that seven people died in clashes in Tehran after an "unauthorized gathering" following a mass rally over alleged election fraud.
The radio report said the seven died in shooting that erupted after several people at the gathering Monday night in western Tehran "tried to attack a military location."
CBS News correspondent Elizabeth Palmer reports, however, that the radio report did not appear to accurately portray the fatal incident. According to CBS News own information gathering, at least six people were shot to death on Sunday night at a massive rally at the University of Tehran.
According to Human Rights Watch, the number of people killed during the rally on Sunday was six, reports Palmer.
The most recent death reported amid the post-election tumult in Iran was a single individual killed late on Monday, just as the day's massive rally was breaking up.
More than 100,000 opponents of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad marched through Tehran earlier in the day, protesting the alleged vote rigging in last week's elections.
Palmer reports that as the masses were beginning to disperse, a small group of apparent protesters began to attack a local headquarters of Iran's paramilitary force. Video from the scene shows paramilitaries opening fire as the building is torched, under siege from the group. One man was shot and killed in the crowd.
The outpouring in Azadi, or Freedom, Square for reformist leader Mir Hossein Mousavi followed a decision by Iran's most powerful figure for an investigation into the vote-rigging allegations.
Security forces watched quietly, with shields and batons at their sides.
Later, a group of demonstrators with fuel canisters set a small fire at a compound of a volunteer militia linked to Iran's powerful Revolutionary Guard as the crowd dispersed from the square. As some tried to storm the building, people on the roof could be seen firing directly at the demonstrators at the northern edge of the square, away from the heart of the rally.
An Associated Press photographer saw one person fatally shot and at least two others who appeared to be seriously wounded.
Witnesses told The Associated Press that protests and some violence had broken out in several cities across Iran, including some traditionally seen as more conservative.
President Barack Obama said Iranian voters have a right to feel their ballots mattered and urged the investigation into vote-rigging allegations to go forward without additional violence.
Mr. Obama said reports of violence that followed Iranian elections trouble him and all Americans. He said peaceful dissent should never be subject to violence that followed weekend elections that gave President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad a second term.
"It would be wrong for me to be silent on what we've seen on the television the last few days," Mr. Obama told reporters at the White House.
Gary Sick, a former White House advisor on Iran who is still considered one of the world's foremost experts on the country, told CBS News the election results showed total contempt for the voters.
"They announced the election far earlier than they could possibly have known what the outcome really was," Sick said. "The numbers don't add up."
"We're talking tens of millions of people voting, and they had the votes counted and announced within practically no time at all after the polls closed... Even if you had the best voting machines in the world, and they don't," Sick added. "Most of this is paper ballots, how do you count 30 million paper ballots in an hour or two?"
The chanting demonstrators had defied an Interior Ministry ban and streamed into central Tehran - an outpouring for Mousavi that swelled as more poured from buildings and side streets.
The crowd - many wearing the trademark green color of Mousavi's campaign - was more than five miles long, and based on previous demonstrations in the square and surrounding streets, its size was estimated to be in the hundreds of thousands.
As his 4-wheel-drive inched through the mob, he tried to address them on a loudspeaker, reports Palmer.
Mousavi (at left) said his solution was "canceling the result of this disputed election."
"This will have the least cost for our nation. Otherwise, nothing will remain of people's trust in the government and ruling system."
The crowd roared back: "Long live Mousavi."
Riot police watched, but seemed to have instructions not to interfere; that's a dramatic turnaround from the past two days - when they attacked and beat any opposition demonstrators brave enough to take to the streets, reports Palmer.
They also targeted journalists: CBS News' cameraman had to stay hidden behind a storefront grill to avoid arrest.
One placard said, in English: "This is not election. This is selection." Other marchers held signs proclaiming "We want our vote!" and they raised their fingers in a V-for-victory salute.
"We want our president, not the one who was forced on us," said 28-year-old Sara, who gave only her first name because she feared reprisal from authorities.
The 12-member Guardian Council, made up of clerics and experts in Islamic law and closely allied to Khamenei, must certify ballot results and has the apparent authority to nullify an election. But it would be an unprecedented step. Claims of voting irregularities went to the council after Ahmadinejad's upset victory in 2005, but there was no official word on the outcome of the inquiry, and the vote stood.
"It's a little difficult to imagine that they're going to do a good job because the Council of Guardians is the organization that basically disqualifies anybody they don't like from the election," Sick explained to CBS News. "They have a history of taking a partisan position, so it's difficult to see them doing a serious investigation."
Sick points out, however, that given the furor generated by these election results and the fierce opposition from within the country, "there are a lot of people looking over their shoulders, and it may be harder to run a cover-up than it had appeared on the surface."
More likely, the dramatic intervention by Khamenei could buy time in hopes of reducing the anti-Ahmadinejad anger. The prospect of spiraling protests and clashes is the ultimate nightmare for the Islamic establishment, which could be forced into back-and-forth confrontations and risks having the dissidents move past the elected officials and directly target the ruling theocracy.
Sick says Iran's regime may be finding it harder to "cover up" the purported election fraud than they expected.
"They anticipated that there would be an outburst of opposition, they would crack down hard - which they have done - people would back away and be intimidated and that would end it in a day or so. It hasn't worked that way," added Sick.

Jon Dahl Tomasson Closes in on Poul Nielsen
Jon Dahl Tomasson Closes in on Poul Nielsen
Danish captain Jon Dahl Tomasson, currently plying his trade with Feyenoord in the Dutch Eredivise, has scored 51 international goals. As Denmark are one of the 32 nations who have successfully qualified for this summer's FIFA World Cup in South Africa, he has a great chance to equal or better his country's international scoring record on football's grandest stage. This record, which stands at 52, has stood for an incredible 85 years. However, even if he does break it, his international strike rate will never be comparable to that of the current record holder, the late Poul 'Tist' Nielsen. It has taken Tomasson 107 matches to close in on this record (the second highest caps total for any Danish outfield player), while it only took Nielsen 38 matches to get his 52 goals. Nielsen's goal per game ratio was an astonishing 1.37 per international, compared to Tomasson's only very respectable 0.46.
Poul 'Tist' Nielsen (December 25, 1891 August 9, 1962)Nielsen was an amateur footballer for Danish Club KB (Kjbenhavns Boldklub). He played with them for 20 years, scoring 276 goals in 201 games, before retiring in 1927. His nickname 'Tist' came from the Danish word Gratist, which translates roughly as 'free of charge'. He was given this moniker as a young boy because of his tendency to sneak into football matches without paying at the gate. He won 6 Danish championships with KB, but only got the chance to play at one international tournament, winning a silver medal at the 1912 Olympic games in Stockholm. Nielsen played when international football was at its relative infancy, which accounts for his low number of caps for such a long career. On average Denmark would play only about 3 international matches a year, often against the same opposition. In fact 41 of his 52 goals came against only two teams, Sweden and Norway (some of these matches had extraordinary results including a 10 0 victory over Sweden, and a 12 0 victory over Norway).
Tomasson's Hopes for South Africa 2010While Nielsen never got the chance to play at a World Cup, this summer Tomasson will be making his second appearance, having also played in 2002. That time he had an excellent tournament scoring 4 goals, helping Denmark to top a group that included France, Uruguay, and Senegal. With a decent squad that includes Arsenals' Nicklas Bendtner, Palermo's Simon Kjr, and Wolfsburg's Thomas Kahlenberg, Denmark look a good bet to get out of what, apart from The Netherlands, seems a reasonable group. Tomasson's place in the line up is far from guaranteed though. With Nicklas Bendtner virtually assured of a starting position, and with Sren Larsen also competing for a place, he seems most likely to start on the bench. If he does score, it would be a fitting end to a brilliant international career for the 33 year old, whose clubs have included Villareal, Stuttgart, Newcastle, and AC Milan. Having not scored in his last seven internationals however, he must wonder if he's destined not to break the longest standing record in International football.
FIFA World Cup 2010 Racism In Soccer Victim of the Apartheid Era In South Africa
FIFA World Cup 2010 Racism In Soccer Victim of the Apartheid Era In South Africa
Bafana Bafana did their best but could not overcome the legacy of apartheid on the field against France today. Wow they had an open goalmouth begging to be fed on at least four occasions. Yes, they made history by beating France. France is ranked ninth and South Africa is ranked 83 rd in the FIFA/Coca Cola rankings. They won the game, lost the competition, and made history by being the first host team in 80 years to bow out in the first round. Let me put this history into perspective in order to explain and not excuse the bowing out of South Africa in the first round of the World Cup competition.
During the apartheid era soccer was a Cinderella sport in the political mindset of the day. Yes we had the National Football League for white teams. I remember with fondness the derbies between Cape Town City and Hellenic. My brother and I were avid Hellenic diehards. My cousin Lionel and maybe the rest of our town were Cape Town City supporters. They played at Hartleyvale and Green Point Stadium, respectively. Green Point Stadium of 2010 fame and glory is on the same site as the Green Point Stadium of old. I remember the annual Easter Monday game between arch rivals Hellenic and Highlands Park at Balfour Park. I remember the import of third league European players to come and play for the NFL teams, our "first league".
The point that I am trying to make is that while the white NFL was flourishing no infrastructure was developed in the townships. Athlone Stadium arrived on the soccer scene in Cape Town very, very late. The birth of soccer as we know it today in South Africa was one of intense complications during labor and delivery. Many noble endeavors to kick start soccer were aborted or still born to say the least. Racism was at the core of this imbalance in the development of soccer in South Africa. How fitting that the mantra of this world cup is to end racism in sport.
Rugby was largely seen as the game that white people play and soccer was seen as the game black people play. The South African Rugby Football Union was not only well endowed, financially, but had world class sport stadiums even during the apartheid era. As youngsters we had to hone our soccer playing skills in the street at risk of being hit by oncoming traffic. The police was always on our case, disrupting our game and hitting us with batons. Even the local field where club soccer was played was fraught with hazards caused by a lack of maintenance. I worked in both Cape Town and Johannesburg and the soccer fields for people other than white in both provinces were a shame. You often sprained your ankle because you tramped on a big rock or you grazed your skin on the rock hard playing surfaces.
Did we expect that this apartheid ill will not have consequences? Soccer is still in its infancy in South Africa and yet the boys are doing great things. Most of them are first generation soccer players for the national team while other countries have third and fourth generation players. They even have coaches whose sons are playing for the national teams.
Sekunjalo! It is what it is. South Africa will get there. Soccer glory will become institutionalized in South Africa. Players will develop those skills, strategies and the spirit to win games and glory.

The motion picture was discharged on sixth July 2016 one day before the event of Eid. The film was a top reviewed motion picture. Media evaluated the motion picture with 4.5 stars out of 5 and from the principal day of discharge the film moved to the crest of film industry gathering.
News channels and media remarked on the accomplishment of Sultan that exclusive Salman Khan can make an additional standard accumulation from a conventional film. The film delineated a decent story in light of diligent work and achievement accomplished by a Haryanvi wrestler named Sultan Ali Khan (Played By Salman Khan) who experiences passionate feelings for a female wrestler (Played by Anushka Sharma) with an incredible preparing by his mentor (Character played by Randeep Hooda).
Sultan was discharged with no opposition from others however with the happening to its third week it began taking rivalry from Rajnikanth's Kabali. Kabali gave a major rivalry to Sultan. Salman Khan this film got a tag of second most noteworthy opener of year 2016 furthermore commented as second most astounding worker of Salman Khan.
Anushka Sharma assumed a standard part with Salman Khan. Salman-Anushka science was additionally one of the in addition to indicate for the motion picture turn into a hit one. Anushka Sharma is doing hit motion pictures with Khan's as last he did a hit motion picture with Aamir Khan named PK which is as yet proceeding onward theaters in a few nations like Japan.
Sultan has now swung to wind up a shocking motion picture. It made an opening day film industry accumulation of Rs. 36.54 Cr. also, upon the arrival of Eid i.e. on second day of discharge it gathered around Rs. 37.32 Cr. For the initial 5 days of discharge it kept on gathering more than Rs. 30 Cr.

Flow over a Circular Cylinder
Can anyone suggest me how to simulate 2-d flow over a circular cylinder using FLUENT. The simulation should be able to show the vortex shredding too.
Thank you
Re: Flow over a Circular Cylinder
Try LES turbulence model. How to setup, i guess you know.
Re: Flow over a Circular Cylinder
Hi US,
I don't think LES is an appropriate way to solve this problem, because I should get the vortices behind the cylinder even with laminar model. Vortex shredding has also been reported with k-e and other turbulence models. Moreover, LES requires large amount of grids and hence computation time.Why should not FLUENT work with laminar and other turbulent models ?
Thanks anyway...
Re: Flow over a Circular Cylinder
Hello Sanjay,
I am currently working on the same project as yours but mind is more into analysing Cd and Cl of a piggyback pipeline. I use ske model and so far it gives me reasonable results. I'd be happy to cooperate with you.
Re: Flow over a Circular Cylinder
Hi all!
I think you should start with Laminar flow over 2D cylinder first, and then go to Turbulent flow with some models as you can. It is my opinion. In 2D Cylinder, you can make grid in Gambit and then export to Fluent to set up the Laminar flow. This problem has a lot of paper, you can see them to compare the results.
Re: Flow over a Circular Cylinder
Hi Sham,
Thanks for your mail. I would like to know how you have modeled your flow in FLUENT. I have generated the grid in Gambit and given the boundary conditions. If you can comprehend the steps you followed in FLUENT it would help me a lot.
Thanks anyway...
Re: Flow over a Circular Cylinder
Definitely, it always depends on what you have in terms of resources and what amount of details you want. On top of everything, it depends on what is the flow specification and its expected behavior. In the choice of spallart-allmarah, k-eps, k-w, LES or DNS, each has its advantages over the other. But should be kept in mind the limitations each model offers with underlying assumptions, which can affect final results. To keep in mind, it is well known fact that, k-eps model assumes isotropic turbulent visocity. Also, using that near the stagnant body, a special near wall treatment becomes very important. I assumed your flow is very turbulent and LES is definitely superior than k-eps in a larger Re range. But ofcourse, finally it is what you are interested in and the resources you have. -US
Re: Flow over a Circular Cylinder
A note: Not the LES but i was intending to write RSM in the place where i wrote LES. Sorry for all trouble it may hv caused to yr minds.
Re: Flow over a Circular Cylinder
dear sir use the follwing steps 1-solve laminar flow 2-construct c-grid type:5D upstream(velocity inlet) and above (velocity inlet)and lower(velocity inlet);20D downstream(outflow) 3-solve at Re=100 for example 4- U=1,chang nu according to Re 5-after solving the flow for steady case and obtain the solution 6-convert to unsteady by i-define new custom field function as (y+|y|) /2y(perterpation to cause unsteady) ii-patch all the fluid to have this x velocity after initilazion iii-iterate to t=42 or after with dt=0.02
Have a good Luck
Re: Flow over a Circular Cylinder
Dear Sanjay,
I am using the RSM model to simulate the vortex shedding in a flow past a cylinder. I managed to get twin vortices as well as von karman vortices in unsteady simulations with this turbulence model. Just be sure to have a sufficiently small time step. If you don't want to calculate it, you could easy estimate it by trials watching the vorticity magnitude contours. Just make sure that in the contour panel, the auto range is not enabled for the vorticity and lower the top limit. Then you will be able to watch the vortices. Otherwise, with auto range, The vorticity magnitude near the walls is too high, and the shedding is invisible!
Regards, Ilias
Dear Ilias,
I´m using the RSM model to simulate the vortex shedding in a flow past a cylinder, us you.
The value of drag coefficient is less and the angle of flow separation is higher than the literature values. I try change the y plus for higher value when I do the mesh on Gambit and I changed the intensity of turbulence (1% to 10%) but the results are the same.
Why I´m not getting the same result if the method is the same ? Can yuo help me?
__________________________________________________ _____________
to simulate vortex schedding, use a DNS (laminar model of Fluent), with of course an unsteady solver. Rans models are bad when the gerometry is symmetric.
Use a fine mesh on the cylinders wall.
If ure cylinder is enough long, u can use 2D. Von karman's instability is a 2D instability.
If ure mesh is fine, u will get the real solution
This is one classical fluid flow problem. You can find many online tutorials on this, try:
Flow over a circular cylinder
The problem is that I´m working in turbulent flow (Re= 27 000) using the fluent.
The k-e standard, the k-e RNG and the realizable with the 3 wall function (standard, non-equilibrium, enhanced wall treatment), PRESTO for the discretization of the pressure and PISO for the Pressure-velocity coupling and I don´t have the vortex shedding. The Cl goes to a constant and I don't have fluctuations.
When I do the mesh I imposed different distance to the wall of the cylinder (y= 0.0005, 0.001, 0.002), however the result is the same. After the simulation I get 7< y+< 37 when I impose y=0.002.
The Cd =0.3 (literature Cd=1.17) and the separation angle is 140 (literature is 120).
What should I do? :confused:
Are u using steady or unsteady solver????
When Re=27 000, it is not a vortex schedding that u are simulating. It is a turbulent flow. U must use turbulence models of course.
For y+, remmeber that it is not a linear function of y.
U must do simulatin, hoping that y+ will be good. If not, u refine ure y, as u was doing....
Flow over a circular cylinder
1 Attachment(s)
I´m using unsteady and pressure based in solver.
I´m simulate the flow over a circular cylinder.
I need to have the same Cd that I fine in literature because the model used is the same (RNG) but I don´t know what change in my simulation in order to get the same value.
I do the same simulations for a square cylinder and I have good results (equal to the literature).
You could see the x-velocity in the next file.
Should I change the under-relaxation factors pre-define by the Fluent?
It is bizzare to do simulations that are alerady done :)
1-are u verifying that ure simulation is converging at every time step???
2- RNG is a diffusif model. If u use steady simulation u will get the same or better results i think. I see that ure simulation is not capting at all any unsteady motion.
3-In litterature, they was in 2D aslo?
4-Are u using low-Re modification? (differential viscosity)
did u get the good range of y+ yhis time???
From my experience, using a turbulence model diffuses the fluctuations so you wont get any... if you are at a high Re, then you need to really refine your mesh and this will cost you of course... but try not using the turbulence model and refine your mesh...
hope this helps
dont use a turbulence model for a Re=27 000 ?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?????????
Thecfduser, I know, it doesnt make sense,thats why one needs to greatly refine the mesh...
have you tried it with turbulence model and it worked?
