Accelerating Science Discovery - Join the Discussion
Despite DOE's frequent leadership in science and technology (think "human genome" or winning 46 of the "R&D 100" awards in 2009), it's widely acknowledged within DOE that the public isn't particularly aware of DOE's role. Not that we in DOE are shamelessly craving a little credit, but in a representative government, an inf

PLEASE NOTE: EarmarkWatch is an experimental distributed research project that contains data for Fiscal Year 2008 earmarks from the House and Senate Labor-HHS-Education bills and the 2008 House Defense Bill.
It does not contain 2009 earmarks. Congress released earmark disclosures for an omnibus bill that included three of the twelve regular appropriations bills—Defense, Homeland Security, and Military Construction/Veterans Affairs—for fiscal year 2009.

Statement from PCORI Executive Director Joe Selby, MD, MPH
WASHINGTON, Sept. 19, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) today announced the appointment of Grayson Norquist, MD, MSPH, as chair of the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) Board of Governors, and the reappointment of Steven Lipstein, MHA, as vice chair. These appointments will be effective as of Monday, Sept. 23.
Norquist, who has been a member of PCORI's Board since it was first appointed by the GAO in September 2010, replaces Eugene Washington, MD, MSc, as chair. Washington earlier had informed the GAO that he intended to step down from that position and leave the Board at the end of 2013.
"We are thrilled with the selection of Dr. Norquist as the next chair of the PCORI Board of Governors," said PCORI Executive Director Joe Selby, MD, MPH. "Gray has dedicated his career to researching and improving healthcare for society's most vulnerable populations. The Board, and the communities they represent, will be well served by his leadership in engaging patients and stakeholders and commitment to funding rigorous research."
Norquist is professor and chair of the Department of Psychiatry and Human Behavior at the University of Mississippi Medical Center in Jackson. His research focuses on the use of telemedicine to reduce disparities in mental health treatment for those living in the Delta region in Mississippi and to improve the quality of care they receive at local community health centers. He served in a number of leadership positions at the National Institute of Mental Health, including director of the Division of Services and Intervention Research.
"I look forward to working closely with Gray, vice chair Steve Lipstein, and the entire Board to advance PCORI's mission to help people make informed healthcare decisions through research. Steve's continued leadership as vice chair will be invaluable as we move into the next phase of funding research that answers patients' questions."
Selby also thanked Washington "for the exceptional leadership he has brought to PCORI in its first three years of existence."
"Because of his efforts, and those of our Board, Methodology Committee and staff under his tenure," Selby said, "we are well positioned to carry PCORI forward and support research that has a meaningful real-world impact."

No more bon-bons for this housewife! Eva Longoria-Parker headed back to work on the set of Desperate Housewives last week, kicking her fitness routine into high gear so she can squeeze herself into Gabrielle Solis' skimpy wardrobe. "I'm working out, I'm eating my healthy food I get prepared," she tells People. "It is so much easier being in shape when you're on the show because you have a chef and the gym is right there, so you really have no excuse."

Finally! Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony have officially revealed the names of their newborn twins—and no, they're not Hector and Selena, as Latina.com readers helpfully suggested. The couple instead decided on Max and Emme, People magazine reports.
Que?! How is it possible that the most flamboyant, over-the-top couple in music has managed to pick such boring names for their little ones? Not to mention, Max is sooo not original (Christina Aguilera's newborn son is also named Max).

Anne Boleyn was by far England's most important (non-ruling) queen: She was famously smart and willful and witty enough to talk circles around any man. Through her scandalous marriage to Henry VIII, she instigated England's historic break from the Catholic Church, made and broke political careers and gave birth to Elizabeth, who would be the world's most powerful ruler for 45 years. But if you want that story, you'll have to read a biography. The Other Boleyn Girl is about bodice-ripping sex, cat-fights and melodrama, baby!

Barnes & Noble launches new Nook HD tablet
NEW YORK (AP) — Barnes & Noble is rolling out two new versions of its Nook tablet with sleek new hardware and a sharper high-definition screen. The bookseller's move heightens the already intense tablet wars heading into the holiday season.
Barnes & Noble said Wednesday that its new Nook HD will come in two sizes, one with a 7-inch screen (measured diagonally), starting at $199, and one with a new 9-inch diagonal screen, called the Nook HD+, starting at $269.
In addition to the new HD screen and a lighter body, Barnes & Noble is also increasing the services the Nook offers, adding a video purchase and rental service, allowing users to maintain different "profiles" and making it easier to browse titles in its book and magazine stores.

Though it might cost a pretty penny to get your hands on a Robert and Cortney Novogratz-designed apartment, you're not at a total loss. The husband and wife design duo – known collectively as The Novogratz – has partnered with Macy's to bring that funky yet sophisticated Novogratz aesthetic to the space you call home (which just might not happen to be a multi-million dollar townhouse).
The Novogratz Dinnerware Collection stays true to the pair's distinctive designs; it mixes elements of modern and vintage styles for a fashion-forward pattern featuring robust shapes, plenty of color and bold graphics. Known for their current HGTV design show called "Home by Novogratz," the parents of seven began their career by renovating run-down New York City properties. Their use of high/low pieces and attention to detail makes their projects (5 Centre Market Place in Soho is a notable one) unique, covetable and downright expensive.
While the magical Novogratz touch usually comes with a hefty price tag, you can get the Novogratz Dinnerware Collection, which includes plates, bowls, mugs, serving trays and canisters, for $9.00-$29.00. The playful, eccentric collection certainly plays into the design team's mantra, "Like life, design should be fun and does not have to be perfect." The collaboration also proves that you don't need to be a millionaire to capture that unique Novogratz touch in your own home.
Say so-long to your standard go-to glass vases. For all of the festive and for-no-particular-reason (if only in your dreams) flower arrangements you're set to receive this holiday season, you're entitled to use a vase that's a little more special.
Matthew Robbins, floral and event designer and Martha Stewart's resident wedding guru, has teamed up with design incubator (and founder of the ingenious Whisky Stones) Teroforma to design a line of sleek ceramic vases that are simple and elegant. Each piece from the Atelier Vase Collection is handcrafted in Sao Bernardo, Portugal by master ceramicists from high-fired bisque porcelain, an unglazed, snow-white ceramic.
The vases come in all sizes – tall, short, wide, narrow – and range from $75-$150. Get your hands on one or all of these gorgeous specialty vases to get Matthew Robbins-approved wedding-worthy flower arrangements without having to call in the pro himself.
So the table is set, the menu is planned, and the decor is ready. You've done everything to create a beautiful holiday party this winter, but how do you make it one to remember? Smell is the strongest sense tied to memory, so use the power of scent and emotion to make your gathering truly unforgettable. Here are two of our favorite ways to "scent the scene" for your holiday fete.
1. Set the Mood With a Festive Fragrance
Inspired by the best feelings of the season, the Glade® Winter Collection has your winter party covered. Light a Glade® candle one hour before your guests arrive and place it near the entryway of your home. Choose a fragrance that makes the most "scents" for your party: Apple Cinnamon Cheer™ and Sparkling Spruce™ are fabulous fragrances for any holiday gathering. Check out these scents we're also loving for winter: Pure Vanilla Joy and Frosted Berry Kiss.
2. Create Your Own Centerpiece
With candles serving as an illuminating focal point, create a vignette using seasonal props. Surround Apple Cinnamon Cheer™ with bright red apples and cinnamon sticks. If you are going with Sparkling Spruce™, add painted pinecones and tinsel to the table; for a crimson touch, surround Frosted Berry Kiss™ with bunches of fresh cranberries. The extra details will go a long way in making a spectacular impression.
Just in time for the beginning of the year promises to yourself to go to the gym more, H&M is providing motivation in the form of cute workout clothes.
What? That always does the trick for us…
The Swedish fast-fashion retailer just announced that it would launch an active line that's dedicated to, wait for it, "no-nonsense performance." Before you back away slowly, you should know that brand even consulted Swedish Olympic athletes to consult on the production of the new active designs, Refinery 29 is reporting. So, couple H&M's massive stylish appeal with gear that's not only functional but cute?
Everyone will want to get in on that action. Runners, swimmers and even yogis will find something they like in this new offering.
Well, looks like that's all we need to make us want to hit the gym more often. That, and how good we'll look once it shows up in retail spaces starting this January.
We all have that friend. The one who's busy tagging us in motivational #Instafit photos while we give in to glorious holiday spreads. The BFF who insists that abs are made in the kitchen rather than the gym. The ultimate fitness fiend who spends every Sunday prepping meals for the week to avoid snacking at work. This holiday, let them know that all of their clean eating hasn't been in vain. These health-centric finds are perfect to boost their chic chewing and salute their aspirational lifestyle.

The turkey and all of the trimmings that come along with Thanksgiving can't be consumed in one sitting – no matter how hard we try. But there are more options than just a massive sandwich to help pick the bird clean. Glam turned to Chef Adam Sobel of RN74 in San Francisco for a frittata recipe you'll want to wake up and make before heading out to snap up sales on Black Friday that helps clean out your fridge of the festive foods. Bon Appétit!
Post‐Thanksgiving Day Turkey Frittata
½ cup Vidalia onion, quartered
1 tablespoon olive oil
Black pepper
½ cup broccoli
Ice water
8 large eggs
1 tbsp. Tabasco® Green Jalapeño Sauce, or more to taste
2 tbsp. Parmesan cheese, grated
½ tsp. ground black pepper
Pinch salt
1 tsp. butter
½ cup dark meat turkey, cooked and chopped
¼ cup white Cheddar cheese, grated
1 tbsp. chopped parsley
*Serves 6
Preheat oven to 300°F. Toss onions with olive oil, salt and pepper and place on baking sheet. Roast until caramelized and tender, approximately 40 minutes. Set aside. Preheat oven to broiler setting. In large pot, bring water to boil, add broccoli and blanche 4 minutes. Remove immediately and shock in ice bath to stop cooking. Chop broccoli and onion in medium dice. In medium bowl, using fork, blend together eggs, Tabasco Sauce, Parmesan cheese, pepper, and salt. Heat a 9‐inch non‐stick, oven safe skillet over medium high heat. Melt butter and add broccoli, onions, and turkey to pan and sauté 2 to 3 minutes. Pour egg mixture into pan and stir with a rubber spatula then sprinkle in white cheddar. Cook 4 to 5 minutes or until the egg mixture has set on bottom and begins to set up on top. Sprinkle with parsley. Broil for 3 to 4 minutes, until lightly browned and fluffy. Remove from pan and cut into 6 servings. Serve immediately.
It's Turkey Day, which means it's time to gather a cup of cheer and give thanks for all that we have. Regardless of if you're dining with family, friends, or both, the big meal calls for a little holiday spirit in the form of a cocktail or two. Raise a glass to those you love with one of the luscious libations.

While only a few years ago the access to audio-visual media was limited just to a small group of experts, the digitalization of production processes and the growing popularity of the tools connected with it have enabled many designers to work with the moving image and sound. In the context of design audio-visual media is inseparable from related design disciplines. Areas such as illustration, typography and interface design are strongly interrelated. The most distinctive difference of audio-visual design is the fact that it is using a time-based medium. The designer is challenged to develop events along a timeline.
Audio-visual design takes places in several areas:
It is the aim of this area to provide an education with an experimental approach as well as in commissioned work. Intensive links to all other areas of study form the basis for an integrative view on all design processes.
The »Design for manufacturing« course area is not about communicating product design. The connection to practice is the connection to the people factor. In the light of high complexity, problems, challenges and implementations of ideas cannot be managed in short-term linear processes. The long view and holistic concepts are what is needed.
Networked systems cannot be defined simply through their x-y-z coordinates, rather they operate and function spherically: similar to spots on a sphere, they all lie on the same surface, while some may be diametrically opposite each other. The categorical separation of »either-or« lies diametrically opposite to a »both-and«.
The area of «Design concepts» investigates in the design process itself, its structure and procedure, the question of »how« to design. It is about:
the structure of the design process goal-oriented strategies process supervision and monitoring overcoming mental blocks interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary approaches
There are various approaches to every design problem. For the students it makes sense to learn and test at least one of the traditional approaches before developing and arriving at an individual methodology. At the beginning of the course most students design from a good level. Soon the question arises whether other methods, more structured conceptual approaches, would be more sensible to avoid errors and, at the same time, to open up new perspectives. A concept is necessary to determine what and how an object should be and how it is supposed to perform, in addition to the expertise of how it is going to be realised.
A designer's key responsibility is to raise the right questions in order to offer specific solution strategies. It is therefore necessary that designers are already involved in the formulation of the task (the «brief»), which requires a comprehensive and transdisciplinary competence on the designer's part. Consequently, conceptual and planning competency are fostered in addition to a formal design competence, hopefully leading to a convergence of social and structural problem areas.
This may lead to a situation in which the designer develops a focus in consulting. Designers eventually move into positions where design sense is applied in numerous areas – and that's good.
Design is deeply woven in economic processes: it determines and shapes them. Accordingly, the economy is beginning to realize that design is an essential strategic factor, which is leading designers to become managers.
In addition, the socio-economic framework of the profession is changing: trends like increasing urbanization, climate change, demographic changes and globalization on the one hand, and technological innovation in nanotechnology, robotics, genetic engineering, neurobiology and communication technology on the other, are producing new specialist standards, which are opening up new vistas and require a new degree of responsibility.
Designers of today and tomorrow who want to be successful at a high creative level must be able to reflect and present their role within such social developments, economic processes, and technological innovation.
The academic classes of this department focus on developing the conceptual and argumentative skills as well as building knowledge in the field of cultural science.
Studies will cover:
Economic and (inter)cultural questions Work organizational forms Brands and corporate cultures Communication and marketing New media and social transformations
In our projects, we will find solutions for practical tasks, often working together directly with companies; thereby we will develop skills in:
Practical research Analysis Strategic development Concept creation Presentation
Thus, we will build up competence in the field of participatory research.
Let us pretend, for a number of reasons, that there is no such thing yet as a well established history of design or a well founded design theory. This position leads to a complex perspective of design
– and the history of designing – with references to economics, culture, the sciences, the technologies and architecture, poetry and art, in order to discuss, and reflect on, design as a complex fabric with many loose ends – in other words: putting design theory in the overall context of theoretical reflection. This is happening in academic seminars (for instance on conceptualization and visualization in the natural sciences or in music, on systems of order and design guidelines, on idols and icons of design, or intensive reading seminars on Immanuel Kant, Walter Benjamin, Sigmund Freud, etc.).
There are also lecture series, for instance on urban development, the modern age, or audio vs. visual perception. In project work, subjects are tackled such as »In the Style of...«, »What does Design sound like?« etc. All in all, this area of study deals with dialectic criticism, a prudent discourse, exciting perceptions, an argumentative approach to theory, historical contexts, intelligent writing and, last but not least, associative thinking.
This area of studies incorporates two areas of expertise:
In present-day design it is an exception to include the »gender« perspective as a category as important as accepted factors such as ecology, management, corporate identity etc. »gender« is a social and cultural concept that fundamentally conditions everyday perceptions and actions.
The subject of study, in theoretical as well as practical research, is how these projections of gender, male/ female/androgynous/»in-between«, have an impact on the design process as well as on the use of objects. Qualitative design research is also not yet acknowledged widely. This area deals with empirical methods, adequate for design, such as observation and experimental tests, in order to ascertain how people deal with objects and how objects communicate with people.
Cologne International School of Design, Faculty of Cultural Studies, Cologne University of Applied Sciences.
The traditional ideas on corporate design, corporate identity or branding are turning into a much more realistic view of the theme of identity as a whole. Naturally, it is still about the understanding of design and its effect on the communication processes that create identity. "Identity and Design" is the area of study at the Cologne International School of Design in which we critically and comprehensively reconstruct and reflect upon concepts and designs that are tied to identity. At the core of this process is the question of the multiplicity of ways that design constructs identity: for example, in the fields of language, behaviour and communication, and also through brands, products, advertising, music, fashion and so on, meaning that the fundamental problem of the many and varied identities of people and corporations forms the central focus of the study of design in this course.
The dynamic of a hectic, global economy »in which design also plays a role«has led to an affirmative emergence and utilisation of such terms as, for example, 'corporate identity«, »corporate imagery«, »corporate language«, »corporate branding«, »corporate culture«, »corporate sound«, »corporate heritage«, »corporate communication«, »corporate behaviour«, »corporate social responsibility«, and so on. The multiplicity of models for corporate identity and the overuse of the term "identity" with a multitude of various meanings in the jargon of the so-called "trends research" and marketing industries are increasingly frustrating any attempts at a conceptual orientation. Design is also assigned a role in those models that in no way corresponds to today's comprehensive understanding of design. In this course of study at the Cologne International School of Design, we will also identify those positions that affect these models and their implementation. In this context, it is important to note that in particular corporate identity, branding concepts and the strategies associated with them have occasionally become authoritarian and standardising, and, for precisely this reason, often actually often run contrary to what »identity«, at its very best, might look like. An understanding of design that is broadened by this central idea, enables us to consider a problem to be analysed independently from the actual reality that these models create.
The discourse on identity with its many and varied positions shows, however, that personal or collective identities are neither free of contradictions nor as natural as they are sometimes assumed to be and handled in practice-related models. The relational aspects of the discourses on identity from philosophy, sociology, semiotics, psychology, anthropology, gender and cultural studies, cognitive science, communications, media studies, linguistics and iconography are of central importance for this field of study. In the interdisciplinary discourse on the theme of identity, various writings illustrate the differentiated spectrum of identity, amongst them: identity as a dialectical construction in »the identity of identity and non-Identity« (G.W.F. Hegel); identity as a social problem »from birth onwards« (Zygmunt Bauman); identity between »pluralization and individualisation« (Ulrich Beck); identity as a part of the social process »from communicating to building« (George Herbert Mead); identity as a challenge for developmental psychology (Erik H. Erikson); identity as a role (Erving Goffman); identity through participation in interaction processes (Lothar Krappmann); identity as a »narrative concept« (Wolfgang Krauss); identity as a »conduit« or »interface« between interior and exterior worlds (Heiner Keupp); identity as a »transitory process« (Jurgen Straub); identity in dynamic »figurations« as a 'we-I balance' (Norbert Elias); identity and gender (Judith Butler); identity as a 'struggle for acknowledgement' (Axel Honneth) through to the radical definition of the term "identity" as an "ideological obsession" (Michel Foucault), to name a few important perspectives.
Individuals, groups and organisations wrestle in various ways with the themes of attention, acknowledgement, power and ultimately with identities. The political, social, cultural and economic implications that are bound up in this, along with their contradictions and divergences are a part of design thinking and practice. It is all the more important that designers have expertise and the corresponding communicative skills at their disposal that go above and beyond the attributes of identity-creating communication. In this context, design can »and must« also formulate its own identities and maintain them vigourously.
Alongside the basic reconstruction and deconstruction of knowledge on the theme of identity, its various models and positions of discourse will be discussed in seminars, supervised study groups and lectures. The course on identity and design will find its The collaborative complementation and technical perspectives for the course on »Identity and Design« will take place within the framework of the broad range of course offerings at KISD. The requisite expertise and practical proficiency will be tested and questioned in interdisciplinary project work.
Furthermore, in the study and research field »Identity and Design«, co-operative and research projects, symposia and conferences will also be held.
"To a man with a hammer everything looks like a nail" Mark Twain knew more than a century ago. In the area of Interface Design products, applications, processes and systems as well as established methods are examined, considered and enhanced. Interfaces and interactions are investigated holistic and integrative.
This means dealing with the reflected analysis and design of actions and ways of utilisation (interfaces man, artefact and system), the systematic examination and discussion of the human being in the acting relation and in the interaction with the artefactic, the development of systems, system- and information architectures as well as the development of context-based interface and interaction concepts.
This subject area aims to sensitise the students to ecological issues in general and environmentally relevant criteria for product development. The traditional role of the designer can no longer be viewed isolated from other disciplines. Today, a broader view of the inter-dependence of objects, users and disciplines is of growing importance. Holistic thinking is necessary. This implies a paradigm shift in design education. Beyond classical product development it is necessary, today, to create holistic concepts and to think in product life cycles. A comprehensive ecological approach incorporates the active ecology of a product in addition to the passive ecology. Ecology and design do not necessarily contradict each other. Long-term thinking and planning is of paramount importance. The designer must take into account all parameters that have an ecological impact on the product, from the initial design stage over production through to the use, maintenance and environmentally-friendly disposal. Traditionally, the main task of a designer has been to create new products. But changes in the socio-economic context call for fundamentally new concepts within an extended range of responsibilities. These developments create new challenges for designers, especially in the early design and planning stage of product development, and also provide many options to determine the environmental compatibility of their design developments – a major new responsibility.
This concept has led to intensive scientific and political discussions in Germany. Yet, sustainability has not quite become a generally acknowledged concern in our society. In this respect there may be progress on a conceptual level, but less so in the political-practical area. There are approaches to, and pilot schemes for, sustainable production, for sustainable mobility or for long-life consumer goods. These topics are investigated in seminars with a perspective for their impact on the design process.
»Bionics« is a verbal amalgam combining two constituents: biology and techniques (technology). Where in nature do we find shapes and structures that are correlated and balanced in such a way that they may lead us to innovative design solutions? Here lie great opportunities for future, ecologically compatible product developments. The study of nature teaches us the constructive, evolutionary potential of the animate world. Form and function are surely the foundations of design. In order to apply this implicit knowledge, one has to investigate nature in great detail.
This term, often inadequately replaced by »intelligent materials«, denotes the quality of materials which can adapt to changing influences. The increasing mobility of our society pushes the process of development of new materials and their application in a variety of products, from the sock to the automobile. But there is often a lack of exchange of information between scientists and designers. It is one of the objectives of this area to learn to understand each other's concerns and to detect mutual interests. As the range of these topics shows, the only chance for the future is a progressive attitude towards design development of environmentally responsible products within a long-term perspective…
The exponential progress of technology and the evolution of new production processes do not allow universities, simply from an economic point of view, to have the most up-to-date, state-of-the-art equipment. Still, it is necessary to pass on to students complex technologies that are basically comparable to, or compatible with, high-end processes. It is also of growing importance to incorporate aspects of the production process in the early stage of a design project, such as the disposition of a company projected to the outside world, its corporate identity, and to integrate this comprehensively in the production process. Whoever is designing a product needs expertise of the various options and alternatives in manufacturing.
So, in the production of small lots the tooling costs may be extensive, and the designer needs to know what else to do. In addition to expertise of production processes, students need to gather experience with materials, and address such issues as:
To which degree can you bend sheet metal?
When does an anodised aluminium finish tear?
Under how much impact will plastic coating flake off?
What is the torque limit?
Where and when is it sensible to use inseparable compounds?
In design education the unstoppable dynamics of high-tech must be replaced, and transformed into, sensible, feasible, and tangible low-tech dimensions.
Annually, the German manufactoring industry invests on average per employee approximately 2000 Euro in research and development. In the service sector the investments amount to approximately 65 Euro per employee and year! Therefore, disfunctionality and formlessness are not unusual in this sector: endless waits, broken appointments, unfriendliness, unreliability as well as the torture of formalities that seem absurd determine the everyday service from the customer's point of view. And the suppliers of service moan about the customer's lack of price willingness, about unreliable loading factors and unmotivated service employees. In order to change these conditions, new focal points have been created in research and development since the mid-90s.
Just like the subject area of »Service Design« in Cologne. Service design considers services as products which have to be designed and developed systematically, just as it is done with concrete products. Just as in the case of real objects, it is about the design of functionality and form – but simply about the one of invisible products, namely of service. It is about the development of innovative and customer-orientated strategies, about the elaboration of efficient and functional work courses and about the designing of a perfect interface to the client. Especially the consequent examination and analysis of the service products from the customer's perspective, the work from »front stage« to »back stage« is a powerful and effective methodology to achieve great changes with often simple means. And at this client interface the original design competency gets somewhere – namely when it comes to the question how to make invisible service products visible in the whole process of consumption for the client as well as the employee.
In numerous industry projects, for example with Siemens, Provinzial Insurance or SwissCom Mobile, the theoretical and methodical concept of service design proved itself and developed further – and this development gains dynamism. In addition, various large research projects by order of the BMBF and the Land NRW contribute to further development and establishing of the area of »Service design«. It is to help that the consumption of service can soon profit from good design just as the consumption of concrete products.
Despite a forced emphasis of the image, type – our greatest storage medium in the history of civilisation – has asserted itself until the present as an indispensable element of visual communication. Technical innovations and cultural trends have left their mark and have brought about a phenomenal variety of new types and forms of expression and application. The questions as to what is perceived, who is to perceive the contents, and how they are perceived have remained the same.
Typography and layout as a subject deals with these questions, goes into the detail of type representation (micro-typography) and examines its general creative implementation (macro-typography). In the area of conflict between purpose and expression, it looks at things from a cross-media point of view on the basis of each concept developed.
The aim of this subject is to experience the possibilities and effect of type and typography by way of free and practically relevant projects and to get guidance for future creative challenges.
The teachings at KISD is complemented through seminars and projects in the fields 3D design, AV media, digital media and photography.

Q. What is the Workers' Compensation Coverage for Fire Fighters?
A: Please click here for information regarding coverage for fire fighters. (Document in Adobe PDF format)
Q: What are covered medical benefits?
A: Workers' compensation provides coverage for all reasonably necessary medical services and supplies related to an on-the-job injury. In appropriate cases, this may include not only coverage for doctors visits and hospital treatment, but also coverage for physical therapy, medication, chiropractic treatment and psychological counseling.
Q: Do I need a lawyer?
A: That depends upon the complexity of the claim. Discuss it with the Workers' Compensation Division if you are in doubt.
Q: What is temporary disability?
A: If you are unable to work at all during your recovery from a work-related injury, then you will be provided with weekly wage replacement compensation, called temporary, total disability compensation. In addition you will be provided with a small supplement for each of your dependent children. If your doctor releases you to part-time work or light duty work while you are recovering, then you may be entitled to temporary, partial disability compensation.
Q: What is permanent impairment compensation?
A: If you are left with a permanent impairment following your recovery, you may receive additional compensation (related to loss of function) once your temporary disability compensation ends. The law provides a schedule from which these benefits are calculated.
Q: Is there a list of physicians who perform permanent partial impairment evaluations?
A: Yes. Please click here for a list of physicians in the State of Vermont.
Q: Do I have a right to get my old job back?
A: If your employer has 10 or more employees, and if you recover from your injury within 2 years, you have a right to be reinstated in the next available, suitable job. This means that if your employer has hired someone to take your place, you cannot insist that the person be fired; however, the next available position that is appropriate, given both your job qualifications, and your physical capacity, must be first offered to you. You must keep your employer informed of your availability and willingness to return to work.
Q: What if I am unable to return to my pre-injury job as a result of my injury?
A: You should begin looking for work within the physical restrictions set by your treating physician. You may be entitled to vocational rehabilitation assistance to help you find suitable alternative employment. The goal of this assistance is to ensure that you return to work in a job that is both safe, given your physical capacities, and appropriate to your educational and employment background.
Q: How do I get Workers' Compensation?
A: You should notify your employer as soon as possible after you have been injured on the job. Your employer then has 72 hours to report it to the Workers' Compensation Division. At the same time, your employer's insurance adjuster is notified and has 21 days to investigate and to decide whether or not to accept your claim.
Q: What should I do if I am released to return to work?
A: If your doctor releases you to return to work, either full or part-time, you should contact your employer immediately to see if an appropriate position, suitable to your condition, is available for you. If it is, you are obligated to take it or risk losing your right to further compensation and/or vocational rehabilitation assistance. If there is no suitable job available, you may be entitled to continued compensation. If the return to work is part-time, you are entitled to temporary, partial disability compensation.
Q: What do I do if my employer has failed to file a claim?
A: Contact the Workers' Compensation Division at (802) 828-2286.
Q: What if my claim is denied?
A: If your employer's insurance adjuster notifies you that it has denied your claim or that it disputes your right to further compensation or medical benefits, you have a right to contest that decision before the Workers' Compensation Division.
Q: How does the Workers' Compensation Division deal with claims?
A: Specialists work closely with the insurance claims adjuster and claimant. They will see that the adjuster completes the necessary paperwork and insure that medical examinations are performed as required. These specialists may also serve as mediators, helping the parties resolve conflicts over case issues. Further, they act in a regulatory capacity and may issue interim orders when a carrier disagrees with the Division's interpretation of the statute.
Q: How many of the claims that the Workers' Compensation Division receives require hearings?
A: In fiscal year 1994, of the over 25,000 First Reports of Injury, about 9,300 involved some intervention by the Workers' Compensation Division.

Speaking with GameSpot, president of Sony's Worldwide Studios Shuhei Yoshida explained the "business decision" to upgrade to 8GB GDDR5.
"And because we chose expensive memory we really liked the performance, but it's pricy, right? So going to 8GB was a bit of a business decision," Yoshida said. "But we were able to make that decision because of a lot of the feedback from developers. "
The Xbox One, from competitor Microsoft, also features 8GB of RAM.
Sony aims to sell 5 million PlayStation 4 units between launch in November and March 2014. The next-generation console has seen more than 1 million preorders to date

Product 67/67
Just because Nina has let go of the past doesn't mean the past has let go of her. Love doesn't come easy and sometimes you have to fight for what you want.
Will Nina determine that the love and happiness she's found with Roberto is Worth Fighting For?
Roberto called as I was leaving the office and confirmed that our meeting was the next night at six forty-five. I arrived on time and in a much better frame of mind than the last time we'd been summoned. Once again, Roberto met me in the waiting area. This time he had a surprise.
"Hold out your hand," he commanded.
Bemused, I did as instructed. He removed the Celtic knot ring he'd given me and replaced it with my engagement ring. "It's back," I exclaimed.
"Um-hmm. Picked it up this afternoon. How's it fit?"
"Wonderful." I held out my right hand for Roberto to place the other ring on. As soon as it was in place, I slid my arms around him and gave him a kiss. He immediately took control. By the time it was over, I was flushed and aroused. I took a step back to gain some control.
He caught my hand and held it up to the light. "It looks good. When the wedding ring joins it, it will look even better," he stated, satisfaction oozing from his tone.
We were interrupted before I could comment.
"Pastor will see you now." The church secretary's gaze went from the two of us standing intimately together to the ring sparkling on my finger. "You're engaged? Congratulations."
"Thanks," I answered, a pleased grin on my face. I knew she was genuinely happy for us and not just saying what was expected.
"As we walked towards the office, Roberto's hand dropped down to cup my behind.
"Roberto," I hissed.
"What?" His eyebrow arched and the look he gave me denied all knowledge of any wrong doing.
Sighing, I shook my head. As I prepared to step through the doorway, he whispered, "Are you wearing them?"
"Actually, I decided to go without." I smiled innocently and went and took my seat, inwardly chuckling at the expression on his face. I was lying of course, but that's what the man gets for trying to knock me off balance. Turn about was fair play.
I settled into the chair, adjusted my skirt to make sure I was covered, and set my purse on the floor beside me. Roberto gave me a narrow-eyed glance as he pushed his seat closer to mine before sitting. There was a smirk on my face as I struggled not to laugh.
"Sister Wallace, I see you're in good spirits today," Pastor stated.
"Yes, sir."
"Care to share the joke?" he asked.
"It's private," I responded, not about to tell him what was so amusing.
"I see." There was a pause as he glanced back and forth between the two of us. Apparently realizing neither one of us was going to share, he got down to business. "Roberto tells me you two have decided to marry."
I smiled. I couldn't help myself. "Yes."
"As you're aware, when couples come before me desiring to be married, I do a bit of counseling to determine whether I feel they're ready. So many marriages end in divorce because it's not what both parties expected it to be and the couple just gives up. Marriage is an honorable institution created by God. He said in His Word, 'Man was not meant to be alone and the woman was created to be a helpmate for the man.' The basis of the church is the family, so it pleases God when a godly man and woman join together in marriage. That being said, Roberto tell me why you selected this young lady to be your wife," Pastor instructed.
"When I first began attending this church, Nina came to my attention. The Lord showed me that she was my wife. I watched her for a long time before approaching her. The more I grow to know her, the more certain I am that she's the one," Roberto stated simply, his fingers playing with my hand, which he held on his lap.
"I see, and Nina, why did you agree?"
"Because I love him."
Both of Pastor's eyebrows shot up to his hairline. "You're not going to tell me that God told you Roberto was your husband?"
Pastor Williams examined me while I calmly met his stare. "Did you pray about it?"
Expectant silence.
I arched my left eyebrow in inquiry. "What is it that you'd like me to say, Pastor?" Roberto squeezed my hand in warning. Then, evidently feeling that the squeeze wasn't enough, said, "Nina," in a cautionary tone.
"I'm not trying to be difficult," I explained to Roberto. "I want to know what it is he's expecting from me."
"I'm waiting on you to tell me God said Roberto was your husband," Pastor patiently explained, realizing I was serious.
"What difference does it make? You're going to draw your own conclusions anyway, regardless to what I say. Besides, how many couples sit here and tell you that 'it was the Lord' that brought them together and divorce less than a year later?" I knew of one right here in this very congregation. Well, the man was still here. The woman left.
Pastor Williams sat back in his chair and the expression on his face showed that I'd surprised him. "That's very wise of you and very true. However, you do realize that love is not a basis for marriage?"

Gospel Art Picture Kit
John 13:4–15; Joseph Smith Translation, John 13:8
He poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded. John 13:5
After Jesus had eaten the Last Supper with His Apostles, He removed His outer robe and put a towel around His waist. Then He poured water into a basin and, one by one, began to wash and dry the Apostles' feet. (See John 13:4–5.)
When Jesus came to Simon Peter, Peter asked the Lord why He was washing his feet. Jesus told Peter that he would not understand then but that he would know later. Peter said, "Thou needest not to wash my feet" (Joseph Smith Translation, John 13:8). "Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me" (John 13:8). Peter said to Him, "Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head" (John 13:9). Jesus told him that He needed only to wash his feet (see John 13:10; Joseph Smith Translation, John 13:10).
Jesus told His Apostles that they were not all clean because He knew one would betray Him (see John 13:10–11).
When Jesus finished washing the Apostles' feet, He said, "If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet. For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you" (John 13:14–15).
After eating the Last Supper, Jesus poured water into a basin. He then washed the Apostles' feet and dried them with a towel. Jesus explained that He had done this to teach them that they were to serve others.
