Graduate Students
Guadalupe A. Bacio, PhD; '14
Lupe completed her doctorate in Clinical Psychology in June 2014. Her dissertation project, titled "Determinants of alcohol and drug use among Latino adolescents," examined neurocognitive and contextual risk factors for alcohol and drug use among Latino adolescents in collaboration with a local high school. Lupe has since transitioned to a postdoctorate fellowship funded by the NIAAA Institutional Research Training Program 5 T32 AA 13525-13 at the University of California, San Diego where she is working with Dr. Sandra A. Brown and Dr. Mark G. Myers. The overarching goal of her program of research is to help eliminate disparities in patterns and consequences of alcohol and drug use encountered by ethnic minority adolescents of different immigrant generations. To this end, her research focuses on (1) understanding factors in the etiology and development of alcohol and drug use among these groups, (2) identifying mechanisms that generate and maintain these disparities that can be targeted through prevention/intervention efforts, and (3) examining the effectiveness of adolescent alcohol intervention programs in addressing these groups' needs

James Ashenhurst, PhD; '14
James received his PhD in Neuroscience in Spring 2014. His dissertation focused on a translational examination of risk-taking behavior and its relationship to alcohol dependence, involving the use of the same behavioral task in both rodents and human participants. James joined the SAHARA lab as a postdoctoral fellow in summer 2014 at UT Austin, where he is working with Dr. Kim Fromme to gain experience in human alcohol administration in a bar-lab setting. His current major interests include examining the impact of alcohol on decision-making and impulsivity, as well as the genomic architecture of risk-taking propensity & sensation-seeking and its relationship to alcohol use disorder etiology.

Democrats in Stalemate
THE COLLAPSE of efforts to conduct new primaries in Michigan and Florida leaves the Democratic Party in a pickle partly of its own making. That's not our concern. Our worry is about voters in Florida and Michigan. They shouldn't be punished because lawmakers and state party officials scheduled unauthorized early primaries or because national Democrats failed to anticipate the high cost of making good on their threat to ignore results from states that jumped the starting gun. The best solution -- one that seems all but impossible at the moment -- would be to hold new votes in both states, perhaps reducing their delegate allocation as a price for having tried to game the system. While it's unlikely that these do-overs would be enough to tip the nomination to either Sen. Barack Obama or Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, the more voters who participated, the more legitimacy would be accorded the ultimate outcome. Without a new vote, however, it's incumbent on the party and the candidates to come up with a fair way to dig themselves out of this mess.
In Florida, at least, voters were given a ballot that included both Ms. Clinton and Mr. Obama. Despite Ms. Clinton's unseemly election night appearance in the state, neither candidate campaigned there. Ms. Clinton, who won the vote, arguably had the advantage of greater name recognition; Mr. Obama arguably was penalized by not being able to introduce himself to voters by campaigning in the state. Yet this was a reasonably level playing field, and any undue advantage could be reduced by cutting the number of delegates in half, as has been suggested.
Michigan presents a bigger problem, because the fundamental choice there was between Ms. Clinton and "uncommitted." Ms. Clinton airily says that it was Mr. Obama's choice to remove his name from the ballot. That's no answer; this was not in any way a contest that reflected voters' preferences. Granted, there were practical, legal and substantive problems with the do-over proposal that died yesterday. Some of those could be solved simply by giving local election officials a bit more time to gear up for a new vote. Democratic National Committee rules require that primary voting be completed by June 10, but that date is not chiseled in stone. If a few extra weeks could make the difference, there's no reason not to stretch out the calendar a bit.
The harder question in Michigan was whether to allow votes by Democrats and independents who chose to vote in the Republican primary in January. Under the now-defunct proposal, those voters would not have been allowed to participate. There would be some unfairness either way, but the better solution would be to allow anyone who wants to vote in the open primary to cast a ballot. The assumption is that this discussion is moot because the state legislature adjourned yesterday for a two-week break. Maybe, but if Michigan lawmakers care about their state's voters, they will come back to fix the mess they helped create. Otherwise, the party should figure out a way to get a new round of voting done on its own.

My friends are moving to China (form LA) for a year and I've offered to help cater an open house/going away party for them. They aren't exactly sure how many people will be there - but posted on FaceBook they are having an open house from noon-6pm and for people to stop by.
I definitely plan to do a cheese platter, some charcuterie, probably roasted nuts with rosemary, maybe marinated olives. Wanted to have some other nibbles that I could leave out for an extended time or be able to serve at room temp and keep replenishing throughout the day. Maybe smoked salmon on cucumbers with some creme fraiche? I can get my hands on salmon roe so I could do something with that or a tuna tarter. For sweets, Giada made some fudge with cinnamon recently that looked pretty yummy (and easy) so am considering that.
Probably serve bellini's/mimosa's and bloody mary's and/or maybe a big pitcher of sangria.
I don't think I want to do a Chinese theme as I am not real familiar with cooking this style.
Thanks in advance for your ideas.

DH and DS and I are looking forward to traveling to London again this summer.
I see on the TFL website that you can order the 7 day paper travel card. It says on the website that if you wait until you go to London to get the travel card it will be loaded on an oyster but if you want the paper travel card to order from home.
However, I remember reading that in order to qualify for two for one discounts you need the paper travel card from a national rail station. Are they still selling those to visitors? If I order from home would it have the railroad logo on it to qualify for two for one discounts?
Last time child went free--under 10. This time it says either get a regular travel card for DS or send in a picture with 10 pounds for processing for the child oyster card to get the child rates. Which makes more sense? The 10 pound processing fee sort of takes away from the child rate savings for a 7 day pass for zone 1-2.

Can't help with the child, but you don't order a paper travel card from the rail station in advance for the 2for1 deals. I gave never heard of a paper travel care from tfl...
Just wait top I'll you get here and get the travel card from the national rail station nearest you...you will need passport photos.
Report Abuse
DON'T order in advance. No point in getting the Zipcard either unless your OVER 10 child is staying for several months.
Just go to a train station and sort everything out there - you will be able to get suitable Travelcards for adult and child. Just take some passport sized photographs with you as they need to create a FREE card to go with the Travelcard
Report Abuse
According to the tfl website http://www.tfl.gov.uk/tickets/14554.aspx you only need a card for your child 5-10 years old if he or she is unaccompanied. I assume you will be with him so he should ride free with you without any pass or travel card
Report Abuse
Per TFL website If your child is:
Over 10 years and 11 months
And under 16 on 31 August before the start of the academic year
They can get:
Free travel at any time on buses and trams
Child fares on Tube, DLR, London Overground and some National Rail services
Your child needs a valid Oyster photocard to get free travel on buses and trams, to get Travelcard season tickets and pay as you go at child rate.
A £10 administration fee is payable at the time of application.
You can get adult and child-rate Travelcards - photo ID is not required. They are issued as paper tickets from the Visitor Shop.
They no longer require photo ID for the travel cards--it says.
Children under 10 travel free but for ages 11-16 they do require a card--either an oyster that has to have a picture and be processed 4 months in advance of travel or a travel card (not an oyster).
Sounds like we should wait to go to a national rail station and get the travel cards there.

So it sounds like your son is over 10 years?

Europeannovice, I'm probably going against the stream here, but I would order the travel cards. For our trip to London in September 2012 we pre-ordered the 7-day travel card. The cards arrived at our home about 2 weeks after ordering and had the National Rail Logo at the top. We didn't use the 2 for 1 offers, but I think the cards could have been used for that purpose. I know most on this forum will recommend the oyster card, but I would preorder again. On the day of arrival, we had the cards in hand, walked into the tube station and headed directly down to the platforms without having to take the time to obtain an oyster card. I think there was some cost to preordering, but with an Oyster card there is a deposit and a photo is required as well. In short, preordering was convenient and worked for us. You can click on my name for my trip report for London.
Report Abuse
Yes son is over 10. Didn't mean to confuse--he was under 10 on our first trip over a few years back and is now over 10 so we do need a card for him--just debating travel card vs. child oyster card.
Thanks Lynda--that is our other dilemma pre-order --would those cards be acceptable for two for one's or wait until we get to a rail station?
Report Abuse
I have my doubts as to whether the TfL advance travelcard would be eligible for the 2for1s:
It's always possible that the people at the various attractions won't check tickets too closely if at all, but the TfL version is clearly not the same as issued by the national rail companies, who run the 2for1 promotions (to get people to use their lines offpeak).
Report Abuse
Having the same questions as my children are 11 and 12. We are in London for 6 days so plan to get the 7 day travelcard. From what I can tell, its best to pick it up onsite at a rail station.
I agree with a previous poster - it would have been easier to order online. On top of that, my brother lives in London so I could have gotten it mailed to him. But don't want to take the chance of the 2 for 1 not working. We are using it for at least 2 attractions.
Report Abuse
Can I emphasise what Patrick says.
Cards with "the National Rail Logo at the top" are NOT necessarily valid for the 2 for 1 deal, and it's hard to see what the point of buying them is if you don't want that deal
LyndaM is wrong about the eligibilty of the tickets she bought for the 2 for 1 deal
It's not sufficient to have the National Rail logo on: they MUST have been bought at a National Rail ticket office. The ONLY way such tickets can be bought from afar is by getting a relative or friend to go to an office, buy them then send them to you.
Report Abuse
We didn't use the 2 for 1 offers, but I think the cards could have been used for that purpose.
If you don't know, don't ring in. You just gave bad advice.
As Patrick and Flanner indicated, the TFL Travelcards are not usable for the 2for1 offers. This is clearly stated on the days out guide website and includes a picture of the travelcard style (#2) that Linda purchased, which contains the national rail logo.

Thanks everyone for your valuable input as always.
We will wait until we arrive and purchase at a national rail station and not pre-order.
Thanks again.

Oh--one more question.
Is West Brompton Station considered a national rail station to which to purchase the 7 day paper travel tickets?
I am reading there are over ground stations which are not considered national rail (is that correct?) and only certain stations in London are national rail. Please advise further on this.
Report Abuse
No, West Brompton isn't a national rail station. If you're staying that side of London, your best bet is Victoria.
Report Abuse
If you look at a tube map the national rail stations are marked with a red symbol if two horizontal lines with ow diagonally through them. Overground stations are the stations along the line called the overground - it is the double orange line and these are not national rail stations
Report Abuse
"If you look at a tube map the national rail stations are marked with a red symbol"
As West Brompton is (National Rail trains stop there as well as those on TfL's Overground line).
But the ticket office isn't operated by National Rail. The crowsfoot on the tube map doesn't indicate ticket office operation: it indicates an interchange between the tube/DLR and the national railway system. In fact, most National Rail stations inside Greater London don't appear on the standard tube map at all.
There is a list of National Rail ticket offices somewhere. Unfortunately the idiots at the railway companies who dreamt up this cockamamie promotion don't put it on their website.
And TfL, who've got a real job to do, isn't going to waste time and energy subsidising foreign tourists who can afford to pay for their holiday.

Ah thanks flanner, I stand corrected. If only this was easier to understand!!!!

Ok if you go to www.nationalrail.co.uk/stations_destinations/default.aspx and enter the station name and hit search on the left hand side if the page it tells you who operates the station - if it says Network Rail you can buy tickets valid for 2for1. If it says London Underground you cannot!
I tested it West Brompton says London Underground as Flanner said above - cannot buy tickets valid for 2for1. I then out in London bridge and it says Network Rail = yes you can get the correct tickets for 2for1 deals!
I hope this helps!!!

Sorry it took me a while to respond back. DS has been sick again this winter. We have been having record snow and ice storms. I read that the UK is having record flooding. An unbelievable winter.
Thank you for the clarification of a network rail ticket office vs. a non network rail ticket office at a station where national rail trains have station stops. It is rather confusing. In any event, we would need to go to London Bridge, Euston or Victoria or Kings Cross. Got it now. Thanks.
I understand the days out program is meant to bring people living along the train lines into the city without their cars but if it is available for us visitors too--why not? We actually also intend to use it the other way around--using the train from London to visit Bletchley Park (a separate ticket will apply since it is outside zones 1-6) and Duxford which may or may not be on the days out program. I have to investigate that.
The best solution then would be to load up an oyster to get us into the city and over to a proper rail station to purchase the travel tickets. The oyster requires a £ 5 deposit that you can get back at the end. Is £ 5 the minimum balance required to be loaded on the card? In other words, let's say you initially load it with £ 10 and take a few trips. The last trip will cost £ 1.5 and you have £5 left on the card in this made up example. Will you be allowed through to take that trip and the balance will fall below the £ 5 or do you need to top up to £ 6.5?
Thanks in advance.

Plus the TFL website said that photo ID's were no longer required for travelcards. However, do you still need photo ID's for tickets purchased at a national rail location?
Report Abuse
The TFL does not run the 2for1 deals the national rail does which is why you can't get the deals using the Oyster cards from tube stations - transport for London is what tfl stands for. They are referring to travel cards loaded on Oyster cards.
7 day travel cards eligible for the deals absolutely require a photo.
Report Abuse
Honestly this is how it gets so confusing.
I tell my guests to just pay for a single ticket to get to London from heathrow - I think it costs about £4-5. Then they get the 7 day travel card with photo from a train station in town and pay the £4-5 to get back out to the airport at the end if their trip.
The hassle with worrying about saving a couple £, getting an oyster, getting the deposit back at the end just adds to the confusion and wastes time and costs so little when you consider the headache of trying to sort it out and get the deposit back etc...
Report Abuse
Okay so passport sized photo still required for the national rail version of 7 day travel pass.
Just out of curiosity though in my example above would you need to top up to the £6.50 to take that last ride or can you dip below the £5? I understand your point about just paying for a single fare ride each way to and from airport to save on hassle.
Last time we were in London we did have a 7 day travel pass--it was issued on paper and it did have the national rail logo on it but no picture was required and we didn't try to use any of the days out promotions with it. At that time we had the 6 day London Pass (I know I purchased it before reading the advice on here but it worked for us then--the longer the days the more use you get from it). We also had an Oyster for the extra three days travel since we were there for a total of 10 days. The last time we were in the UK though we took the bus direct from the airport to Oxford and from there toured the Cotswolds, York and Edinburgh so we didn't have any London transportation pass to worry about since we didn't go to London then. Hard trying to remember what to do now that we want to return. Thanks for your help sorting it out.

>> Is £ 5 the minimum balance required to be loaded on the card?<<
Nothing on the TfL website says so: that's the authoritative source.

Zero is the floor; not £5. You will not need to top up to keep it above £5. The card doesn't disintegrate or stop working if it goes below 5.
If there is a £5 minimum, it must only apply at initial purchase. I'm pretty sure I used coins at a machine to top up to an exact fare (and zero ending balance) before.

I have a couple of additional questions, since everyone in this thread is so helpful.
I'm arriving on an 8 day trip in the late afternoon. So for that first day, I'm just going to purchase a 1 way Piccadilly to Holborn Station near the hotel.
My questions:
1. Can I go and purchase my 7 day pass to start the next day?
2. How late are the ticket agents at Euston or Kings Cross open? I'm guessing 6 PM, but I'd hate to walk all that way (about a mile from the hotel) only to leave empty handed.
3. I am traveling with my mother, if I go to the station to buy the passes, does she need to be with me (I'd bring her photo for the pass)?
4. If I buy a pass for Zone 1-2, that means we can only use the Tube in those zones, but can go outside that zone (say Walthamstow) via the bus, correct? Also, to get back to Heathrow on day 7 of the pass, do we need to purchase another 1 way or can the pass be applied to the journey and we just pay a difference?
Thanks so much for your time and help.
Report Abuse
1: Yes
2: Open till late:
3: I can't she why she should, but someone else may know
4: Yes, but a bus ride to Walthamstow from zone 2 would take forever. You could use the national rail service from Liverpool Street to Walthamstow Central, for which you would get an add-on ticket at Liverpool St. If you wanted to use the tube for that, I have a feeling you may need to get an Oystercard with some pay-as-you-go money on it, check out of the system at the last station in zone 2 and in again using the Oystercard for the journey into zone 3; but someone else may have better experience of doing that.

Patrick -
Thanks so much. I'll take the chance that I can buy the tickets on my own and can do it after an early supper. (Worst case, we just go back up there the following day, it would be only a slight diversion on our Sunday itinerary to leave from Euston instead of Holborn.)
I'm running the numbers in different ways: whether the £5 each for the Oyster deposit is better than just going for the weekly zone travel card and never worrying about anything if we want to change our plans on the fly (or get lost). If I want to go to Walthamstow and Kew, the zone 1-3 plus the cash fare for Heathrow on the last day is likely the most efficient though could run £2 more if we don't go to Kew (weather may not cooperate).
The 2 for 1 is already going to save us about £50 total, so I'm probably driving myself nuts over a few bucks one way or the other.
I'll report back in a few weeks on how that all went!

Okay, here are the results of my trip:
Walked to Euston station on Saturday evening to buy the national rail 7 day travel card. Could. Not. Find. Ticket. Counter. No one knew where it was.
So, we walked over to St. Pancras, which wasn't far and had no trouble finding the ticket counter, bought the cards & were very pleased with the beautiful station. (If you have a choice, go to St. Pancras, so much prettier and more shops/food than Euston).
Next day ... my card didn't work at all. I was told at the station that my card was not magnetized correctly and I should return to the station to have it re-done. So, on a rainy Sunday night, I went back up to St. Pancras only to be told that the whole travel pass system was down and I could try back the following day. Perhaps it would be working then.
I gave up and for the rest of the week I just showed my pass to the gate agent who was stationed in the Underground by the handicapped gate on my way in or out. It only bit me once when I couldn't find an agent, so I gave up and walked the quarter mile.
The 2 for 1 worked great. The only hiccup was taking the City Cruises, where we found their 30% off deal was better than the 2 for 1 (which would have to be a full day pass).
Still, saved about £28 total ... worth the effort. (Also, never would have seen Pancras otherwise, which I thought was notable from an architectural perspective.)

That's bizarre...the ticket counters at the train stations are pretty obvious...were you in a tube entrance rather than the main part of the station where the trains leave from? If so it is possible there was no ticket counter because some entrances for the tube don't have them...

Product Description
The Dolphin1 is a full composite board with a wood deck and bottom, it has PVC reinforcement under the heel area and a special shaped full concave deck. It allows your feet to be completely pointed down towards the nose and the middle part of the board. A correct foot and legs position is what you want to have when you foil. The rails have a special pronounced tucked under edge bevel, which reduces the impact when you come down from height.
So touch downs are very smooth when the nose touches the water and allows you to to quickly get up and go again again instead of nosedive. At the same time it has a nice and thin volume that helps the board to stay light; all these characteristics are perfect for a freeride shape. The size is 160 x 52 cm, so it is balanced for riders of any type of height and depending on your skills and preferences you can have around 10 cm of footstrap adjustment in the front and in the back, next to the different options of where to place the mast on the bottom.
- PVC reinforcement
- Comes with 3 adjustable RRD/Dakine straps
- 4 hole adjustable mast plate inserts
The front and rear wings of the hydrofoil work as lifting devices. The wings create a lifting force from the flow of water that travels across them at speed. This is the reason why they are built with a specific sectionaL profile:
The shape of the wings' profile shall not be modified, filled and sanded. Doing so would alter the balance and prevent the correct operation of the kitefoil.
In order to guarantee the correct behavior and performances of the kitefoil, the rear edge (trailing edge) of the wings must remain very thin, thereby making this part more fragile in case of impacts. During handling and use of the kitefoil, the user should be particularly cautious with these sharp areas in order to avoid any risk of injury.

The Urban Stomach blog rates their wings number 1 in SF. I can't wait to give them a try. Has anyone been here, yet?

7 Responses to Doctor Who Rory Action Figure Announced
I haven't purchased a Doctor Who action figure in … well over a year (maybe two), because Character Options apparently had no intention of releasing a Rory action figure. While Amy Pond may be the 11th Doctor's "formal/official" companion, I considered Rory (and River Song) to be just as important companions. I was tempted by the Roman Auton as a stand-in for Roman Rory, but I knew having an imposter on my shelf would just bug me (especially when there was no evident reason why Roman Auton Rory wasn't released instead of the multiple Roman Auton figures).
Now that Rory is finally being released, I might have to track down at least the core "dysfunctional family" of Moffat's Doctor Who being the Doctor, Amy, River and Rory.
I agree with you completely, Newton. A year (or more) ago I would have been thrilled with a Rory figure. Now, I really don't care. Like you, I will probably pick him up if I find him for a decent price, but I'm not gonna bust a cork trying to get my hands on one, and I won't pay an arm and a leg for it.
I'm not sure what happened to my passion for this line of figures. It used to be my favorite and I wanted every figure CO made, but now I just can't seem to muster up any enthusiasm for it.
Maybe it was all the "Classics" collections, with the endless Tom Baker variants. The rising price points didn't help either.
Make no mistake, they still are great figures. Some of the best looking on the market. The Eleven Doctor set has to be one of the greatest action figure products ever produced.
Wow, not to continue the trend, but I'm not overly excited either. Like you, if this were a year ago, I'd be thrilled. I even bought a roman auton to stand in for Rory, but it never really looked right. For me, it was the constant re-release of figures with different accessories (first wave buyers like me felt cheated that we were being punished for buying early cases), the fact that it's getting harder to find sites that sell single figures, and quality not being consistent across figures, even in the same wave, that started to dull my enthusiasm for the line. It just stopped being fun…
Now, I've limited myself to new doctors, which looks like I don't have to worry about any time soon, and new companions. Maybe if I see Rory, I'll pick him up, but I'm not going out of my way.
Well I'm going to buck the trend and say I'm as excited about Rory coming out as I would have been a year ago. Pre-ordered both flavours of Rory and looking forward to finally having the whole of the Pond family on my shelves.
I have to say, I don't think it looks much like Arthur Darville at all and that's the reason I expect I'll be passing on him.
Pity, other than the River Song figure, they usually do a bang up job on getting the likenesses down pat.
Wait, where is the "Rory" figure? All I see are 1980's era Paul Reiser figures.
I can see a little Paul Reiser in there… Also maybe Howie Mandell.

One of my favorite parts of being in the SEO industry is the amount of changes that occur on a daily basis. Year over year we see 500 plus algorithm changes; and as technology evolves, search is right behind it with more changes to create a holistic experience.
However, with all the changes, many tend to chase the algorithm and get caught playing catch-up instead of looking a step or two ahead and considering what may be next. Looking farther ahead may be difficult, but can become much easier if you just consider the root of why search quality teams would be making so many drastic improvements.
To do this, I tore a page out of Google's book with their Ten things we know to be true, or company philosophy. And after reading through this I found some very interesting topics and correlations between the search giant and SEO – go figure, right? – some upfront, some buried.
Below you can read through the correlations. Feel free to comment with anything you see as well.
1. Focus on the user and all else will follow.
Google's first rule in their "Ten Things" philosophy is to focus on the user experience before anything else. And provided the main points below:
- A clear and simple homepage interface
- Pages load instantly
- Search results are not sold
- Offers relevant content
- Advertising is clearly marked and offers relevant content that is not distracting
- Tools and applications work so well you don't have to consider how they might have been designed differently
There are quite a few things just in the first paragraph that parallel basic algorithm iterations. You're looking at pieces of Panda, Penguin, Caffeine, Hilltop, Page Layout and many others.
So, if you want to keep building traffic and your brand, start focusing on the user and how they consume information. If you have the resources, build personas around your clientele and understand not just why a user visits a page, but what they hope to get out of that visit. Additionally, if you haven't already, realize that mobile experience is extremely important and will have profound effects on your brand for years to come.
2. It's best to do one thing really, really well.
Google outright says "We do search." This isn't we do social media, we do video, we do email, it's just what it says it is.
Expect any product rolling off the line to have some association with bettering the user-experience behind their search algorithm. No matter if that's building stronger ties through information gathered on Google Plus, product receipts that hit Gmail or even the hours of cat videos watched on YouTube, it all leads to a better graph connecting searchers to the results that matter most to them.
If that's not enough, consider that the remainder of their philosophy, which is to offer users access to more information in their lives – which screams mobile, personalized and local results – and to bring search to previously unexplored areas as with Project Loon.
3. Fast is better than slow.
This is a completely self-explanatory, but if Google focuses on speed then you should too. Google has outright said site speed is part of the algorithm and studies continually confirm that faster sites lead to better conversions – even if it is shaving off only fractions of a second.
Back when Marissa Mayer was Google's VP, a study was ran that served 30 results instead of the usual ten. Concluding the test, traffic dropped 20% for the terms. But how much longer did it take to load? Try .5 seconds.
Other than site speed, what else needs to be fast? Think about the number of knowledge graph or knowledge boxes accompanied with just about every "what is" query. Speed is important. And is important for not just websites, but a user getting to a query.
4. Democracy on the web works.
Possibly one of the most interesting sections in Google's philosophy is "Democracy on the web works." Google relies on external factors and signals – over 200 of them – to determine what result gets precedence over another. Specifically mentioned here is the PageRank algorithm, which is a voting process, giving sites with more link signals, or votes, priority.
And, as the web and Google's algorithm increases in size and complexity, PageRank as well as link signals, continue to decrease with the addition of other signals. Link signals aren't going to disappear anytime soon; however, think about the other external signals that can be gathered by users to enact a democratic web: social signals, time on site, bounce rates, click through's on links and so on.
5. You don't need to be at your desk to need an answer.
Mobile optimized websites are extremely important to Google. And as mobile and tablet usage continues to increase at massive levels, in conjunction with developing tools like Google Glass, marketers must adapt to the changing consumer trends and how people like to receive information.
6. You can make money without doing evil.
This is one of the larger sections in the 10 Things Philosophy and is aimed at advertising. This paragraph covers the following:
- Google generates revenue from ads
- Ads should be relevant to the site's content
- Advertising should be simple, and Google does not accept pop-up advertisements
- Ads should not distract the user
- All ads should be clearly identified as an advertisement
Thousands upon thousands of websites operate with advertising as the sole business model; however, tricking users into clicking ads or plaguing your site's pages with ads – especially above the fold – can negatively affect your user's experience, and lead to an algorithmic action.
7. There's always more information out there.
Discoveries, research and innovations are happening on a daily basis with photos, videos and sound clips being taken every second – meaning there is always more information available.
And as Google continually searches for better ways to crawl information and display results to the user, marketers need to think of how they can help them find and index the information needing to be displayed. This involves every element on your site, including navigation, alt text, XML sitemaps, RSS/Atom feeds, video transcriptions, video sitemaps, creating social profiles and more.
8. The need for information crosses all borders.
Not everyone's web presence is meant to extend overseas; however, this shouldn't stop you from finding a takeaway from this point. Google continually strives to provide results that are easily accessible and provide quality information related to the query – no matter where the person searching is located.
However, if you're selling a product that can be bought in any country, then consider the opportunity to build a new customer base by writing content in that language and using rel alternate.
For example, if I had a business based in the United States and sold products to people in France, then I'd hire a French copywriter and build a French speaking portion of the site and add rel alternate link.
<link rel="alternate" href="example.com/fr/" hreflang="fr-fr" />
9. You can be serious without a suit.
This speaks directly to SEO managers. Your employees should have work that is challenging – and the challenge should be the fun part.
It's amazing when you empower your employees to handle accounts or projects by themselves and see the creative ideas that spur from it. Foster a culture of pride in team accomplishments as well as individual accomplishments, showing that even the smallest tasks have a positive impact on your overall goals.
10. Great just isn't good enough.
This reminds me of a post by Richard Baxter on how to be a better SEO. In the post, he gives roughly 30 attributes of a great SEOs and what anyone in search can do to develop their skills. The one that stuck out to me the most was:
"Don't be happy with just 'ok' – if you don't love it, it isn't ready"
This directly translates back to user experience. If you put out a flawed product or cut corners to finish a project, how is that going to affect the user or your client? Will it provide value? – Probably not.
Even if you don't know exactly what you're searching for right away, always strive to produce the best results for your client, user or company and the search results will follow.

Condolences of Pope for victims of Mumbai bombing
Pope John Paul II has expressed profound grief over the terrible loss in human lives in the attacks that struck Mumbai. In a message to the Archbishop of Bombay, Cardinal Ivan Dias, he expressed his "most heart-felt condolences to the civil authorities and to the families afflicted by the loss of their loved ones, as also good wishes to the wounded and their families". The Pope also appealed to "all the men and women of goodwill to renounce to the path of violence, that has caused so much senseless suffering and let peace prevail over the forces of evil and hatred". Pope John Paul II said he prayed for the eternal rest of the victims and implored God for the gift of strength and comfort for the wounded and those who lost their loved-ones. Source: MISNA

Stop Crying - Part 3
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Beauitful piece
Xiao Sha,
I'm very proud of you, not only for the improvement you've managed to achive each time, but your courage you've had to keep on making this movie. Someone insulted me after I reviewed Part 2. That came as a blow to me, not because I wasn't able to take that, but solely because for a moment or two, i was disappointed with humanity. I feel down also because this little reality woke me up with the fact that it wasn't easy for me to take one tiny insult at all, how desolate it would become to you to encounter the those previous countless unfair judgement. I really wanted to actively support your project but somehow i questioned if I'm doing any good to you. maybe i was to negative at some point. but yeah, you're back, and I feel lively again ^_^
When the blue tag of Part 3 lights up in front of me, I pictured it as if you kicked open the door of newgrounds and marched into this place again, with pride and hope. Your continuation of the production and coming back here simply command a great deal of respect. Good for you!
Part 3 is beautiful, the plot and everything is nicely planned and professionally done. My family and my Chinese lang. teacher will agree with me that your end quote is beautifully written, and it serves as a good hint for what to expect in Part 4 (though the poem gives me some bitter feeling). The music and voices fit each screen well, and I personally really like Sha's voice, calm and tender, and I consider it's an effective way to bring off the emotional part of the story. The brother-sister conversations that always end with some jokes and laughters have been my favorite part, though it's also emotional in some sense. Jai is really a loving person that you do have all the reasons in the world to brag about.
I really enjoyed chatting with your team people and feeling happy for you to have such a nice group behind you. I guess they are the one big reason you could keep up the good work. ...... I want to wish you good luck, but maybe you don't need it as your talent and hard work has been the main elements of your success. But I wish u good health as I was told that some health issue has been delayed due to this production. Though this project means a lot to you, health should always come first.... talking like a mother >_<
was also told that Stop Crying series was selected by ManiaTV and will be on air soon. So glad that your work is gaining more recognization. Congratulations!!!! Hope this news would also brighten your days a lot. ^_^
one of my close friends loves icecream and I often make a lot at home for her frequent sudden visit. If u'd ever visit london someday (hopefully in summer), may I invite you to try my home-make goodies? just tell me what flavor you like. ^_^
Congradulations! Great job, xiaosha! and your team!
Fen, my heart sank to know that someone would insult you because of your kind support for my work.
I guess this is Newgrounds' reality. It seems that people are allowed to talk and hurt as random as they like, without worrying any consequence. I feel sad for what happened to you, but I hope you will always stay positive. This world isn't always beautiful but, sometimes, seeing the dark side of human nature may help us appreciate the bright side of the world. And please don't worry as of whether you brought in positive or negative audience. Your spiritual support itself is invaluable and influential. You just underestimate the power of your kindness.
My teammates introduced me to newgrounds just few days before I finished the 1st movie (my work was originally to share within a small alliance). I literally submitted the first work here without knowing too much about this place. Though I was shocked to see the both sides of this community in my very first day here, I don't regret that I came here, if you ask me today. The support from my close friends, the voiceactors, and some audience like you far outweigh anything else! As a matter of fact, I sort of like to come back this public venus, just to see more different people ... which my brother have seen a lot in his entire life. Maybe it's my turn!
I'm very glad that you like Mizura's work. Thank you! The whole cast did a great job indeed!
I like chocolate ice-cream. I can have it any time of the day, like breakfast, and any seasons including winter. Thanks!
This is a blessing that I could see an angel on this human land! You please stay positive. From the whole team, best of luck to you on everything, esp on choosing your major. :D
Stop Crying - Part 2
Rated 5 / 5 stars
huge improvement
Except for a couple of artists whose work I like very much and have followed for some time, actually I'd been quite indifference to movies made by other flash producers, and never intended to review either. After watching your 1st movie, I almost wrote to you, but I didn't. Here it is Part2, I just can't remain silent..... your work is just powerful and outstanding.
I like your drawing a lot, clean and detailed, and often with pleasing color. The various descriptive background settings well depict the one aspect of Hong-kong, a place where I've spent 5 months. The charactors are animated very well (if not perfect), camera positioning is effective, the voices are as good as that in Part 1 (you've chosen prof. voice actors there), and what I really want to point out is that you just showed a huge improvement from Part 1 in terms of qualities mentioned above, with the fact that Part 1 was very well done already for a first timer. I believe that your Flash skills in Part 2 has just shown you've excelled yourself in Flash..... though you were only a beginner back few months ago.
I know you didn't expect that, but Part 1 did generate quite a few controversial issues. With that, you've hit the ground running. Part 2 is just as powerful, though it seems that you've made it less emotional. You're extremely brave doing this project, and my respect to you has been so deep that I can't find the best way to convey.
The way you express the message is straightforward and that's what makes it very powerful. Your whole movie immediately reminded me of Fallen Leaves, written by Adeline Mah. The book was too sad that I've long decided not to read any book of this genre. But I expect yours is different as it's a biography of your brother. I do like your movie, and hope you will finish all episodes. I'll watch all of them, and support you until the end!
Regarding those negative reviews, I hope you won't take too much to heart.. just let them come and go. Even for the artists who I respect very much, their good work also got bad reviews. Any good movies that find their way to front page always draw attention, and thus sometimes bad comments. Don't be discouraged! Despite of the disapproving reviews that you've been encountering since your 1st, you need to keep in mind that a good spectrum of support across newgrounds (and fm my school) has been going to your movies at the same time. Wish you a smooth path in producing this great movie series.
Mei fen
Side note: when I was a kid, living in China, I read many Ding-dong comic books.... but mostly in black and white. When I saw that Ding-dong cover in your movie, I couldn't help but grin at it. My hello to you, another Ding-dong fan! Nowaday, he is called Doreamon! I miss that former Chinese title though! (sorry, i know it's not part of the review :P)
I'm sure it took you long time writing me this glowing review. Thank you so much for your compliment, though I'm not sure if my work is as good as you said. But, I want to say, I won't waste the time you spent on writing me this. Each message you want me to read, to know and to feel, they are all well-received with all of my gratitude. I especially thank you for breaking your rule and doing reviews for me. (In fact, yours was more than a review. I take it as a message of encouragement. Thanks for being supportive! This is very kind of you! And what you said about the voices is very true - they did a very professional job indeed, and have been very supportive too! Lucky me!)
From what you wrote above, I sort of got a feeling that you (or someone you know) got a reply email from me after Part 1 was released. I do have to admit that I was shocked by the responses generated by Part 1 and was once thinking to stop working on this movie. But, well, I'm back. I'm really glad that I didn't give up because I would've been very guilty to disappoint anyone of my supporters like you. And yes, I found my first movie in many users' favorite lists. That's very encouraging!
Thank you too for relating my movie to Fallen Leaves. I honor it. Most of the time I enjoy my life, but sometimes I do have complaints. But after comparing with Adeline's childhood, I have nothing left to complain about... (after all, I had a wonderful brother, that was more than enough to offset the unpleasant aspect of the childhood)
Hello back to you, Ding Dong fan. I didn't even know that this cartoon has another name.... I'm too outdated! Thanks for telling me!
Thanks again for your support!
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Intriguing story
Marvellous work! Everything is just fantastic and I especially like the beautiful artwork of the background settings (like the mysterious interior of the room in the dream) that contributed so much to the enigmatic mood.
Another part that I like a lot is when he has 3 doors to choose and he eventually chose 'Artless' that associates to what he meant 'naïve'. I would choose that door too.
All in all, the story is absolutely intriguing and the script is very well written. Together with the wonderful artwork and animation, music and nice voice work, the movie has just made itself a masterpiece of work. Looking fwd to the next instalment.

Evelynn Build Guide by oOValkyrieOo
Not Updated For Current Season
This guide has not yet been updated for the current season. Please keep this in mind while reading. You can see the most recently updated guides on the browse guides page.
Thank You!
Your votes and comments encourage our guide authors to continue
creating helpful guides for the League of Legends community.
Evelynn Build
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
After watching the world playoffs and seeing the M5 vs. IG Game 1 match, I was tempted to try out Evelynn in mid. I found out that she is a very viable mid lane AP Carry/Assassin with massive burst potential. I believe that she under performs in a jungle role due to slow clear time and very limited CC prior to reaching level six. This guide focuses solely on her burst damage from her ultimate and ravage combined with her constant damage output in the form of her hate spikes. I see many guides where she is played with focus on either her hate spike or her ravage, whereas this item build efficiently and effectively allows a high damage output from each. The following guide aims to justify my item/rune/mastery choices as well as give in-depth information about her play style.
Pros / Cons
Great ability to pick off back-line enemies quickly and effectively without much risk of being spotted.
Good team fight ability with her ultimate attack combined with the constant high damage output from her hate spikes.
Passive stealth. (What's not to love about that?)
While stealthed, Evelynn's mana regen is increased.
After dashing in with her W, she can be quickly shut down by CC. (However after killing an enemy her W cooldown is refreshed thus allowing her to remove CC and escape)
Squishy and prone to harass from ranged mid-lane opponents.
Stealth is obviously countered by Vision Wards and Oracle's Elixir.
In the early game, it is important to be careful whilst farming. This is due solely to the fact that she is vulnerable to harass from ranged AP carries and AP carries such as Katarina who have harass abilities ( Bouncing Blades) that come at no mana cost. As a result, it is difficult to farm with Evelynn in the early game. Essentially; don't geet too obsessed with last hitting minions, especially if it would leave you in an exposed position. It is simply better to farm up enough gold to purchase Kage's Lucky Pick (a GP10 item) which will supplement your gold income until you can farm more easily.
The runes I have identified are fairly standard for AP Carries, particularly those without mana or those with low mana cost abilities and high mana regen, which scale well with her abilities and needs throughout the game.
Greater Mark of Magic Penetration
Magic penetration allows Evelynn to deal damage through the base magic resist of AD carries which are the primary targets of Evelynn in teamfights.
Greater Seal of Scaling Ability Power
Scales with Evelynn's abilities as the game goes on and is multiplied by Rabadon's Deathcap to greatly increase her AP.
Greater Glyph of Scaling Ability Power
Scales with Evelynn's abilities as the game goes on and is multiplied by Rabadon's Deathcap to greatly increase her AP.
Greater Quintessence of Ability Power
Initial AP boost allows Evelynn to farm with her hate spike in the early-game phase.
Items (In Purchase Order)
Boots of Speed
Mobility is key with Evelynn. Usually on an AP Carry I would suggest starting with a meki pendant for mana regen, however Evelynn's passive allows her to regenerate mana quickly and she realy needs to be able to avoid harass.
Health Potion
Use these simply to keep your health up as you will be subjected to a fair amount of poke.
Tear of the Goddess
Excellent on Evelynn as her spam abilities quickly farm up the stacks on this item.
Kage's Lucky Pick
As you will be subject to a lot of harass from your mid lane opponent, you will be unable to secure all of your last hits. As a solution, GP10 items must be used. Kage's Lucky Pick provides this GP10 and also builds into a Deathfire Grasp later on in the game.
Fiendish Codex
Ability power and CDR. This allows Evelynn to spam her Q with more frequency and damage output.
Sorcerer's Shoes
Although it is usually recommended on Evelynn to purchase Boots of Mobility, I believe it is more worthwhile to purchase Sorcerer's Shoes. This extra magic penetration will allow Evelynn's abilities to deal closer to their full potential.
Athene's Unholy Grail
CDR and Magic Resist would allow Evelynn to easily counter and burst down enemy AP carries and then escape into the fog with her W.
Archangel's Staff
Needlessly Large Rod
Rabadon's Deathcap
Deathfire Grasp
Giant's Belt
Rylai's Crystal Scepter

Don't Use Enron to Tar Personal Retirement Accounts
February 6, 2002
Opponents of Social Security privatization are poised to use Enron's example as a reason to quash the movement toward personal retirement accounts. But advocates say the naysayers will have to muddy the issues considerably to do so.
- To begin with, personal accounts would be designed to avoid the outcome at Enron by banning the concentration of funds in one stock -- which was the downfall of those who loaded up on Enron shares, rather than diversifying their investments.
- With private accounts, employees would pick a broadly diversified mutual fund -- which would hold much less than 1 percent of their money in any one stock.
- Such an arrangement is quite similar to the Thrift Savings Plan for federal employees -- which has never experienced an Enron-style problem.
Personal retirement accounts hold enormous benefits, analysts report. They would progressively increase benefits to low-income workers, blue-collar workers, African-Americans, Hispanics and women. The accounts would provide workers with real personal ownership of their retirement funds -- as well as the right to bequeath that wealth to their families when they die.

Our team of museum specialists provides the highest level of professionalism in working with our clients.
Randi Korn, Founding Director, Alexandria, VA
Randi started RK&A in 1989 after working in a variety of museums including art, history, science, and natural history and holding positions such as executive director, exhibit designer, interpretive planner, and evaluator. With a passion for learning and desire to strengthen the relationship between cultural organizations and people, Randi is dedicated to using evaluation as a learning tool to improve personal and organizational practice.
Over the last several years, Randi has focused on creating new services to help museums and other cultural organizations excel so they can achieve impact for the public good. One new service is impact-driven planning designed to help staff align their resources and programs around the impact they would like their organization to achieve. Her extensive experience provides invaluable insight as she works with leadership and staff to pursue impact. Another new service that has grown from the impact planning work is capacity building to support staff in planning and conducting evaluations. The intent of these services is to build an organizational culture of evaluation.
In "The Case for Holistic Intentionality," Randi underscores the firm's commitment to helping cultural organizations, and museums in particular, become more intentional and purposeful in their planning and daily work. Ultimately the firm strives to use impact-driven planning and rigorous evaluation to help cultural organizations demonstrate, with evidence, the ways in which they contribute to the public good and make a difference in people's lives and communities.
Stephanie Downey, Managing Director, New York, NY
Stephanie has nearly two decades of experience managing and designing research and evaluation projects in all types in museums. She joined RK&A in 1999 after several years conducting educational research and program evaluation in public schools. Stephanie's background as an anthropologist drives her interest and commitment to using evaluation and research to understand and ultimately improve the visitor experience in informal learning environments and museums. During her long tenure at RK&A, Stephanie's qualitative approach and experience has contributed to the firm's high-quality reputation. In particular, Stephanie has expanded the firm's capacity through the development and use of rubrics to assess the complex learning that occurs in informal environments; rubrics combine qualitative and quantitative methods to provide authentic measures of the visitor experience. Stephanie works on the firm's newest service, capacity building, and has conducted dozens of staff trainings and evaluation workshops. Recently she was an adjunct professor at Bank Street College of Education and guest lecturer at George Washington University, University of the Arts, and Seton Hall University. She presents regularly at museum association conferences and has published peer-reviewed articles in such journals as Journal of Museum Education and Museums and Social Issues. Stephanie is currently managing evaluation projects in museums across the country, including Perez Art Museum Miami, Museum at Eldridge Street, National Museum of Natural History, Desert Botanical Garden, and The Morgan Library & Museum.
Amanda Krantz, Senior Associate, New York, NY
Amanda is an evaluator interested in conducting reliable studies that help museums welcome and support all learners. She holds a Master of Science in Art Education from The Pennsylvania State University; her thesis research explored the effects of security guards on art museum visitors, an interest developed during an internship at The Peggy Guggenheim Collection. Amanda joined RK&A in 2008 and enjoys working with a range of museum clients and employing various methodologies to answer each client's unique questions. Amanda particularly enjoys complex, multi-method impact studies. For instance, The Art of Problem Solving research conducted for the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum utilized her art education background and evaluation skills to measure an art museum program's effect on problem solving. Amanda also enjoys conducting exhibition evaluations to help museums create exhibitions and spaces conducive to thought-provoking experiences. Amanda valued conducting the summative evaluation for the San Diego Natural History Museum's exhibition Coast to Cactus and co-facilitating a reflection workshop to help the museum reflect and act on the results.
Catherine Sigmond, Research Associate, Alexandria, VA
Catherine is interested in studying learning in informal settings to help museums create relevant and meaningful visitor experiences.

As an evaluator, she strives to encourage museum professionals to continually ask questions of themselves and their visitors to explore museums' ever-changing roles in society.
Katie Chandler, Research Associate, Alexandria, VA
Katie is interested in helping museums create meaningful visitor experiences by using evidence-based decision-making. She has a background in history and anthropology, with a M.A. in Anthropology from the University of Arizona and several years of experience conducting cultural research at the Bureau of Applied Research in Anthropology. Katie has also worked in market research for the higher education sector, where she used a combination of qualitative analysis and secondary research to answer a variety of high-impact questions for colleges and universities. These experiences have equipped her with a range of skills that she harnesses to help museums explore and evaluate their informal learning experiences and outcomes.
Erin Wilcox, Research Associate, Alexandria, VA
Erin is passionate about studying the connection between people and objects in the museum setting on educational, emotional, and social levels. She has been working in the museum field for more than five years and has experience in evaluation, education, and public programming. Her liberal studies background, a BA in Art History and MA in Museum Studies, grounds her thinking about the opportunities for learning in informal settings. Her thesis, entitled "Trivial Pursuits?: A Summative Evaluation of Trivia Nights", combined the development and evaluation of two Pub Trivia Public Programs for museums in Seattle, WA. Erin focuses her work on thinking critically and creatively about study design, and finding the story in a data. She works hard to create presentations that are visually stimulating and thought provoking for the reader.
Samantha Theriault, Research Assistant, Alexandria, VA

Saint-Etienne v Marseille - Wednesday 18:00, BT Sport 3
Saint-Etienne returned to winning ways against Angers last week following a three game winless streak, scoring twice during the second half to complete the victory. With three goals, it was an unusually high-scoring game by Saint-Etienne's standards – 10 of their last 12 have featured fewer than three – and at home they've kept six clean sheets in 12 matches, only conceding six goals in total.
Marseille suffered a second consecutive away defeat as they were thumped 4-0 by second placed Monaco, following a 3-1 defeat at Montpellier in their previous road trip. They've only managed a single victory in their last 14 away games, losing five of seven this term, though they will be given encouragement heading into this fixture by their head to head record against Saint-Etienne. Marseille have only lost once in the last 17 top-flight meetings between these two sides, and with Saint-Etienne at home five of the last seven encounters have been drawn.
Saint-Etienne have failed to win the first half in any of their 14 matches so far this season, drawing at the break in nine of their last 12 and in 14 of their last 17 at home. Both sides here have shown remarkable consistency in going into the break all-square, with Marseille managing the feat in eight of their last 11, and given this regularity we think the first half draw looks reasonably attractive, though we wouldn't want to put people off the draw/draw in the half-time/full-time market either.£10 Free Credit and a £500 Deposit Bonus

By David Ljunggren
OTTAWA (Reuters) - Enbridge Inc's controversial plan to build a pipeline to the Pacific Coast from oil-rich Alberta requires the consent of aboriginal bands, some of whom staunchly oppose the project, Canada's top native leader said on Wednesday.
The contention underlines the difficulties facing Enbridge as it tries to push through the C$5.5 billion ($5.4 billion) Northern Gateway project, which would cross land belonging to many Indian bands, or first nations, so the oil sands-derived crude could be shipped to Asia and California.
Shawn Atleo, national chief of the Assembly of First Nations, said bands had "the right to free, prior and informed consent" over projects affecting their territory.
"We need to move away ... from the notion that we are only stakeholders when it comes to major projects. Whether it be a pipeline or a mine, first nations have real rights (and) those rights must be recognized when it comes to any development in this country," he told a news conference in Ottawa.
The oil industry and Canada's federal government want the 525,000 barrel a day pipeline to proceed as quickly as possible as a way to diversify markets and increase returns for the Alberta tar sands, the world's third-largest oil deposit. Hearings into the development began this month.
Native Indians, who make up around 1.2 million of Canada's 34.5 million population, largely live on reserves and suffer high levels of poverty, crime, unemployment and poor health. However, Canada's booming resource industries are increasingly seeking access to those lands.
Enbridge has offered aboriginal communities affected by its proposal to share in 10 percent of pipeline's ownership and C$1 billion of community development money. A company executive said in Edmonton on Tuesday that 40 percent of first nations along the route have signed on to the equity offering.
However, many in British Columbia have said they do not want the project to move forward under any conditions, citing fears of oil spills on ancestral lands and in coastal waters.
In a blow to Enbridge's aboriginal relations last week, a deal it signed with British Columbia's Gitxsan First Nation fell apart when chiefs voted down the agreement, which had been signed in December by one of their ranks.
Canada's right-of-center Conservative government says Northern Gateway and other similar proposals will help boost exports of tar sands-derived crude and provide lots of employment for natives and economic development for their communities.
The project took on more urgency for the government and an industry spending billions of dollars tapping the oil sands after Washington this month rejected TransCanada Corp's Keystone XL pipeline to Texas from Alberta.
"There's money on the table, there's equity participation and there's jobs. So it's our hope to continue to have a dialogue with first nations and see whether we can, together, achieve our common objectives," Joe Oliver, Canada's natural resources minister, said in Calgary.
"We have a moral and constitutional obligation to consult, to accommodate, and we will of course do that, and the regulatory process contemplates it."
Oliver said the government has not been talking about intervening in the regulatory process should the proceedings not go as it hopes. Some aboriginal groups have said they are already preparing legal cases should the pipeline be approved against their wishes.
Increasingly unhappy aboriginal leaders say one big reason for their troubles is what they describe as the refusal of Ottawa to live up to treaties signed centuries ago between native bands and former colonial ruler Britain.
They say those agreements gave them rights over resources on their lands and are still valid.
"We have continued to lurch from crisis to crisis with deep social ills and deplorable conditions in our communities, very often when these communities are adjacent to major natural resources projects," said Atleo.
He said he wanted to break away from what he called the "Ottawa knows best" mentality.
Atleo spoke a day after hundreds of first nations chiefs held a formal meeting in Ottawa with Prime Minister Stephen Harper and senior cabinet ministers to press for more powers to improve living conditions and for more rights over resources.
Tempers are rising, and one senior British Columbia chief said this week that "an aboriginal uprising is inevitable" unless Ottawa handed over more control.
