A company that sells itself as the cure.. is not always interested in prevention.
When Derek Sivers, founder of CD Baby was asked how he planned to stop the "death" of CD Baby if other musicians set up their own sites. He replied, "Honestly, I don't care about CD Baby. I only care about the musicians. If someday, musicians don't need CD Baby anymore, that's great. I will just shut it down, and get back to making music."
Seriously? This is hot! I love this!
As hard as I work, I hold what I do with an open hand because of where I place my hope and my passion. The honor of walking with dreamers is nothing less than awe inspiring, but when a season comes to an end, I keep it moving. Whether I am working with an individual or an organization, my goal is always to become obsolete. This is one way I measure success.
This does not compute to those who may be in love with their brand or expecting their organizations to outlive them.
Pause. Not all organizations are built to last.
There will come a day when Dream Development will no longer exist. Perhaps before that happens it will mature into something else. That day has not yet come.
I simply think it is wise to never become some enamored with our companies, organizations, ministries, structures etc. that we forget that they are only vehicles in which we travel… living out purpose, impacting others, building character, learning life lessons, providing for our families and creating memories. If the vocation or structure changes, the call remains.
An expiration date is often the beginning of legacy.

Newspaper video engagement, as measured in time capsules entered
This whole journalism thing can be hard sometimes, especially when you're trying something new.
New being a relatively loose term. My paper started video just after I got there in 2006, so about four years worth of newness.
The hardest thing for me hasn't been the actual work. I love doing anything for our Web site, from videos to map to interactive infographics. These are the things I'm passionate about because often I feel these are the best and clearest ways to tell a story.
The hard thing is waiting for anyone to notice.
With video, there are always metrics to let you know just how little your community cares about your work. Clicks, time spent watching, total forwards or any other measure that will tell you that for the most part, no one is watching. Recently that's been changing with a new metric I've been tracking.
That measure is people offering to give me money for what I did.
It's been slow, but I've been noticing over the last nine months or so a surge in people calling or e-mailing to see if they can get a copy of our videos. Since I work in high school sports a lot, this mostly comes from the parents of athletes or coaches or principals at the school.
What I'm hearing is that this is going into a scrapbook or played at an assembly or in the case of one of our teams that just won a state championship, in their time capsule.
For as long as there has been print publications, there has been adoring parents who clipped articles and posted them on whatever passed for the refrigerator. As computers and external hard drives become large enough (and people are getting more used to shooting and storing their own digital videos) they are becoming the refrigerator.
Parents are becoming more tech-savvy, either by experience or attrition, and they are learning to expect that as the newspaper of record, we will have a story, photos and video on anything their children do.
Much of what we do on the Web focuses on the immediacy of the medium. we're often told to get content, especially videos, up quick and dirty.
This isn't always the right decision and in the case of how our community is using my sports video I think it's the wrong approach.
These videos are becoming a record of the event in more of a historical sense. People are watching them not to get the latest news but to relive, days later in many cases, something big for them.
When I do sports stuff I try to add titles, voice-overs and anything I can to make it seem more ESPN and less like something a parent might have shot. They've already seen that.
It adds a lot of time. I often don't get home from a football Friday until 3 a.m. I worked during both time changes these last few months (which conveniently evened up my lost hours).
Now when I go around changing the office clocks I'll have a little more faith that the extra time is really worth it.

Unlike Crysis 2, which felt rushed in due to the lack of DirectX 11 support and mediocre-looking textures at higher display resolutions, Crysis 3 will come with every feature PC enthusiasts can feed their hardware with, including high-resolution textures. PC Gamer discovered that the retail version of Crysis 3 Advanced Graphics Options menu includes a texture-resolution setting, something the very first version of Crysis 2 lacked, and was made available after a 2-odd gigabyte high-res texture pack add-on was installed. Given its post-apocalyptic urban/tropical setting, we expect the game to have generally high texture variety, especially to make objects such as foliage, natural outgrowth, and destroyed buildings, not to mention worn out urban elements, to look organic. Source: PC Gamer
I can't wait for this game! This will be a day 1 purchase for me. I hope to have a GTX670 or HD7970 before it comes out.
I wonder if the tessellation will be a mess again like in 2. And how low has the gaming fallen...you need confirmation that it will come with high-res textures which should of been a standard and not even questionable.
This is great news but its not enough. Crysis 1 is open world with an environment that is virtually completely destructable. Still a step backwards.
Crysis 2 wasn't lacking DX11. I was yelled at by [sarcasm]very intelligent people[/sarcasm] who informed me this was a free add on that EA gave us out of the kindness of their hearts. How kind of them to give me this add on, that I felt I had already paid for, and that made very little difference to the picture quality but made my system slow to a crawl. [sarcasm]I so looking forward to Crysis 3.[/sarcasm]
Thats the thing, high res textures are nice but only like 8% of gamers will have a good enough computer to run them.
I'll believe it when i see it. They also bragged about graphics for Crysis 2 and we got a horrid flat textures mess with DX9 effects. And as far as high res textures go, UT99 had them as well back in 1999 on a separate dedicated CD. One would expect a 2012 title to have high resolution textures out of the box without any special bragging...
Just finished Crysis 2 today, finish and uninstalled. Story is crap Graphics are crap World is crap Gameplay is crap ...nuff said
It's not a step backwards for profit though. If the environment in crysis 3 is virtually completely destructible and the graphics style is still the same, I highly doubt that current or even next-gen high-end cards can endure the torture.
The tech demo of this game is amazing and should be seem by all. I for one can't wait for this. Crysis 3: Powered by CryEngine 3 Tech Demo (Uncomp... And in case you haven't seen crysis one modded Crysis Xtreme FX 2 Quality Mod for Ultra Quality E...
IT COMES WITH A F***ING TEXTURE OPTION? Well rip off my balls and call me Tracey, it's not like almost every other god damned game for PC also has a freaking texture quality setting, but now these morons are advertising it as some kind of special addon? Just shows how desperate they are to polish their turd.
A lot of games these days dont have that option. Also I'm curious about how big textures we're talking here.
I will play it when it's released, if someone else buys it for me ಠ_ಠ Seriously.. with all the recent EA PC games I have paid full price for.. I just don't care anymore, I'm not trolling, I'm not angry, I honestly do not care for EA anymore.
Crysis was an awesome game. It had everything going for it. Crysis 2 still had pretty decent graphics in my opinion, not the best though. That was about all crysis 2 had. I wont hold my breath for crysis 3.
I hope this game brings my 7970s to their knees, make them beg for mercy, and then cut their hands off I hope it's a more interesting play through than C2, which I thought was very uninspiring. I guess the best mindset is to not expect much and be pleasantly surprised come release
I'm still not sure how they butchered the story in the second game. I enojyed it as much as the first game (which isn't a lot, but still some).
I hope it's better and more thorough than what they released for Crysis 2. You could barely tell the difference, and the issue wasn't the resolution they just weren't very detailed textures.

Average Interview
I applied through an employee referral and the process took 4+ weeks - interviewed at Verizon Wireless in December 2013.
Interview Details – The hiring and interview is the same as all big business now. 2 interviews over the phone and then a store interview with one of the area managers. All large corporations do this but its very impersonal. There is no way to follow up after an interview. You're always waiting to hear back and left in the dark about the whole process.
Interview Question – They have a very structured interview process it seems. More like a cue card for managers and HR reps to go through instead of getting a feel for how the person is in a real life scenario. They do a lot of, "tell me about a time when" questions. I understand it has to do with your reaction and quick thinking but seems a little robotic in the interview process. Answer Question
Negotiation Details – There is no negotiation phase. They show you the comission structure and what your salary will look like if you keep within their sales commission targets. They show you the base hourly wage and you decide if you'd like to accept. There is no room for negotiating any of these aspects. More like a take it or leave it scenario.

I applied online and the process took 4 weeks - interviewed at Verizon Wireless in November 2013.
Interview Details –
The entire process took about a month. Applied online and then the next day got an email from HR to set up a phone interview. This interview was only about 20 minutes long, ask very basic questions about work history, experience, and responsibilities.
After initial HR phone interview, the recruiter set up a second HR phone interview with another person. This interview was more in-depth and lasted about an hour. Be prepared to go over your work experience much more inclusively and answer several STAR questions(Situation, Task, Action, Result). Also you will be asked about the technology you use in your personal life and your job, answer these questions with detail and enthusiasm(they are a tech company after all).
Was then set up with an In store interview with management. This interview was also about an hour and included more STAR questions, as well personality scenario questions and "what will you bring" type stuff. Also be prepared to sell something to the interviewer.
Got a call the next day with the offer. Offer is conditional based on the results of the background check(which is very thorough). Be honest about everything they ask and you will be fine. Background check took about 2 weeks to complete, HR then called saying everything was ok and scheduled training.
Interview Question – No real difficult questions, just be prepared with stories from either work, school, volunteering, etc.that you can use for STAR format. Answer Question

Interview Question – They had a booklet of different questions experience and behavioral based. I do not remember the most difficult questions they asked, but it is always difficult to pull specific examples. View Answer

I applied online and the process took 2 months - interviewed at Verizon Wireless in November 2013.
Interview Details –
There were three interviews. Two on the phone and one face to face interview.
The first phone interview was by a third party company who just asked preliminary boring questions about my work history and experience.
The second phone interview was with Verizon's HR hiring rep and that took about half an hour of similar questions. She also explained more about the position and compensation. She then scheduled me for a in-person interview at the store I would be working at with my future manager.
The in person interview was much more stressful as the guy I had was very thorough. He had a packet of questions and took notes. After that interview I received a call two hours later saying I had the job and to schedule a drug test in the next 48 hours. It was a urinalysis at Quest Diagnostics. Having passed that and the background check, they finally called and officially offered me the job.
The whole process took about three weeks even though the initial three interviews all took place within the same week. The call back from the background check and pee test was the longest wait. The job didn't actually start until two months after my first interview but that was due in part to the program I was entering called Retail Leader Development Program (RLDP).
Interview Question –
What is one of your biggest regrets in life and why do you regret it?
What sources do you use to stay current with information and news?
Answer Question
Negotiation Details – There wasn't any negotiation, the pay was decent and it was my first full-time job after college, I wasn't going to risk a negotiation.
Pros: Health benefits start right away and are decent; generous amount of PTO every year; many opportunities for advancement for a hard worker. – Full Review

Master cinematographer Caleb Deschanel is, not unexpectedly, stronger on visuals than substance in his direction of Crusoe (though the camerawork is officially credited to Tom Pinter). The protagonist, played by Aidan Quinn, is a shipwreck victim, just as novelist Daniel Defoe proscribed over two hundred years ago. But this Robinson Crusoe is a child of the late 19th century; moreover, he is no ordinary sailor but an insensitive slave trader. The "Friday" character is divided up amongst several black natives of the island where Crusoe is stranded. Ultimately, Crusoe profits by their example, rather than the other way around. Director Deschanel busies himself with gorgeous scenery (mostly lensed in the Seychelles) and languid sunsets, permitting screenwriters Christopher Logue and Walson Green to pursue the politically correct message of Crusoe without interference. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Danny, the Champion of the World
Danny, the Champion of the World is set in rural England. Nasty country squire Robbie Coltrane, who owns half the land, covets the other half. His principal opponents are a father-and-son team of farmers. The warm relationship between the two "good guys" hardly needs to be forced, since the roles are played by Jeremy Irons and his real-life son Samuel. Cyril Cusack and Jean Marsh also appear in this colorful comedy-drama. Produced for British television, Danny, the Champion of the World was based on a story by Roald Dahl. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Jemma Redgrave is on the verge of marrying caddish Mark Greenstreet. Spending the night in her spooky old family mansion, Jemma stares into a mirror and begins experiencing terrifying dreams. She sees her past, present and future in a Bosch-like kaleidescope. And without knowing how or why, Jemma drags American tourist Kathleen Wilhoite, herself the victim of a troubled past, into her nightmarish visions. Its powerhouse opening sequence aside, Dream Demon tends to be rather slow going, despite some very convincing special effects. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Add Evita to Queue
Add Evita to top of Queue
Evita is based on the musical by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice. Actually, the film is more of an opera, with only short moments devoted to dialogue. "Evita" is the friendly, family version of the proper name "Eva," and this film tells the story of Eva Peron (1921-52), a woman whose name evokes powerful feelings in her native Argentina. Throughout this film, as in the musical, the story is explained and commented on by a character known as "Che," played here by Antonio Banderas. The film begins with the news of Evita's death, and then turns to a much earlier scene at her father's funeral. Eva (Madonna) was an illegitimate child (one of many) of a rural landowner and her seamstress mother. Hers is not a wealthy childhood by any means, and she is constantly discriminated against because of her lowly birth. She is refused admission to her father's funeral for this reason. This scene is contrasted with her own funeral, a spectacular affair, not different from the funeral of a beloved head of state. Eva Peron leaves her village at age 15, in the arms her lover Agustin Magaldi (Jimmy Nail), a traveling singer. With his help, she goes to Buenos Aires and begins her campaign to become a performer, actress, and public figure. Many men help her during these years, and she is reported to have given her favors freely. That changes when she becomes involved with Juan Peron (Jonathan Pryce). In 1944, when they meet, Peron is an ambitious young army officer, serving in the right-wing government of the time. When he falls afoul of the government and is imprisoned, Eva uses her position as a celebrity and radio performer to get him released. Peron marries his feisty mistress when he is freed from prison. Eva is a formidable supporter, and her help is crucial to his later becoming head of state. Once Juan Peron becomes the President of Argentina, Eva expects better treatment from Argentina's high society, but they snub her brutally. She, in response, diverts government money from society-led charities, and starts the Eva Peron Foundation. As its president, she works tirelessly to directly better the lot of Argentina's poor. For this work, and for having risen from poor origins to glory, she is beloved by huge masses of her fellow citizens, if not by those in high society. She also arranges for the enfranchisement of women in Argentina. Thus, her death of uterine cancer at age 33, while she was at the height of her power and influence, strikes the whole world as tragic. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi

In this partially successful Brit sci-fi comedy, four invading aliens cannot really think their way out of a paper bag, much less conquer Earth with their superior knowledge (apparently also non-existent). Of the aliens, Desmond (Jimmy Nail) is particularly thick-headed and leaves Bernard (Mel Smith) dangling out in space, Sandra (Joanne Pearce) attracts the romantic interest of British Commander Matteson (Dinsdale Landen), and Julian (Paul Brown) is along for the ride. After this trio causes a traffic snarl when they land on a British expressway, they are first interrogated and then given jobs in showbiz so they can support themselves. This leads to a great rock singing career, which in turn, leads to a U.S. tour -- though this does not equate rock singers and aliens. Meanwhile, Bernard has been saved from his abandonment in space by an unlikely space-wanderer who drops him off in the U.S., where he is put in an insane asylum. Sure enough, when his three companions start their U.S. tour, Bernard escapes and tries to rejoin them. The saga continues on until some sort of very unlikely rescue seems in store. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

Still Crazy

Still Crazy is a film that looks back at the "rock band" era of the 1970s. Brian Gibson, who has directed musical biographies on Josephine Baker and Tina Turner, sets his narrative on a rock group, Strange Fruit, who are attempting a comeback twenty years after a bolt of lightening literally ended their career in the late 1970's. When keyboard player Tony (Stephan Rea) runs into the son of their old festival promoter, he gets the idea he could perhaps bring the aging musicians together for a revival. He goes off to search for Karen (Juliet Aubre), the band's Girl Friday and often the butt of their various ego trips. Karen, who now lives alone with her daughter, thinks it's a great idea and they set off to locate the other members. Beano (Timothy Spall), the drummer, has barricaded himself away in a trailer in his mother's garden for fear of being caught by the taxman. Ray (Bill Nighy), the lead singer, lives in a luxurious country house (beyond his means) with his second wife; he's still in the music business and has released a solo record. Les (Jimmy Nail), a great bass guitarist, is happily married, and his only regret is that his music never found the following he would have liked. As for ex-roadie Hughie (Billy Connolly), the Fruits were always his boys, and he's ready to give up his stall at Camden market and follow the dream. He would also love to see guitarist Brian again, but Brian is nowhere to be found. Karen decides to hire a much younger musician, Luke, to replace him. The re-formed band go to Holland to play a few clubs on a warm-up tour. However, the youngest member of the band is stealing the show, particularly with the members of the opposite sex. Despite efforts to stay calm and professional, the band is falling into the old routine of bickering day by day as they get close to the big reunion concert. Still Crazy was screened as part of the Panorama during the 49th International Berlin Film Festival, 1999. ~ Gönül Dönmez-Colin, Rovi

A co-ordinate Frame is a system of co-ordinate axes which can be used to specify a position within an NDF data array. Within an NDF such co-ordinate Frames also have associated descriptive information such as axis labels, axis units, a Frame title, etc. These are called the attributes of the Frame, and the most commonly used are listed briefly below (full descriptions of these attributes are included later.
Digits: Number of digits of precision
Domain: Physical domain described by the co-ordinate system
Epoch: A date & time that defines the co-ordinate system
Format(axis): Format specification for axis values
Label(axis): Axis label
Naxes: Number of Frame axes
Symbol(axis): Axis symbol
System: Specific co-ordinate system used to describe the domain
Title: Frame title
Unit(axis): Axis physical units
The single most important attribute is the Frame Domain, which is an uppercase character string indicating the physical domain in which the co-ordinate system is defined. Frames with the same Domain can, in general, be aligned with each other.
Frames with the following Domain values are defined within every NDF, no matter how the NDF is created.
An AXIS structure is a one-dimensional array that maps pixel index along a given axis on to another related co-ordinate axis (e.g. wavelength) - the values on the other axes are assumed to be constant. Each dimension in the NDF should have an associated AXIS structure. Such structures can be created (for instance) using SETAXIS. If the NDF does not have defined AXIS structures, then a default AXIS Frame will be used in which the values along each axis correspond to pixel co-ordinates.
AXIS structures can only be used to represent independent axes. For instance, celestial co-ordinates cannot (in general) be described using AXIS structures because celestial longitude and latitude may both vary along any given row or column of an NDF.19 If an application is used that renders the AXIS structures in an NDF invalid, then the AXIS structures will not be copied to the output NDF. For instance, if ROTATE is used to rotate an NDF by an angle that is not a multiple of 90 , then the output NDF will not have any AXIS structures, and so the AXIS Frame will default to pixel co-ordinates.
The dimensionality of each of these Frames is equal to that of the NDF (e.g. a two-dimensional NDF will have two-dimensional PIXEL, FRACTION, GRID, and AXIS Frames). Axes within a Frame are identified by an integer index in the range 1 to the number of axes in the Frame. The above Frames are not stored permanently in the NDF, but are generated automatically by the NDF access library each time a reference is made to them.
In addition to the PIXEL, FRACTION, AXIS, and GRID Frames, an NDF may also contain any number of additional co-ordinates Frames. Descriptions of these extra Frames, together with recipes for converting positions between them, are stored permanently in the NDFs WCS component which may be examined using the NDFTRACE command. Application WCSADD allows new Frames to be added to the WCS component (positions in the new Frame must be related to the corresponding positions in an existing Frame by one of several different supported types of Mapping). WCSREMOVE allows Frames to be removed from the WCS component.
Two common additional Frame Domains are SKY and SPECTRUM. SKY
is reserved to refer to two-dimensional Frames that describe
celestial longitude and latitude (known as
`SkyFrames'). SPECTRUM is reserved to refer
to one-dimensional Frames that describe position within a spectrum
(known as `SpecFrames'). These sub-classes of
Frame have additional attributes indicating the particular celestial
or spectral co-ordinate system in use (e.g. equatorial,
galactic, ecliptic, wavelength, frequency, radio velocity, optical
velocity, etc.), and any required qualifying parameters
(equinox, rest frequency, standard of rest, etc.). Instances of
these Frames can be added to an NDF by importing suitable FITS headers
using FITSDIN,
FITSIN or the CONVERT package (see SUN/55).
Alternatively, a SkyFrame can be created directly by specifying the pixel
co-ordinates of stars with known celestial co-ordinates (see
SETSKY and GAIA ).

Can Credit Unions Replace 'Predatory' Lending?
Felix Salmon has a really interesting piece about a professor who took out a loan from a personal finance company--at a roughly 40% APR--after her credit union turned her away.Is it a good idea for the professor to be taking out loans at 40% interest rates? Really, she didn't have much of a choice. She needed the money, she got precious little help from her credit union, and the loan company was friendly and extended her the cash on terms she could afford. What's… More »

11 courses, including 110, 236, 240, 244, 330 or 331, 400, and five (5) other courses. Three of the five elective courses must be in the student's thematic area; upon approval, one of the thematic courses may be taken outside of the department.
Six courses, including 110, 240 or 244, and 330 or 331.
Honors may be granted in Sociology for a well-researched, analytically sophisticated, and finely crafted thesis within the range of 50 to 100 pages. Students should begin discussing the possibility of an honors thesis in the early fall of their senior year at the latest and register for SOCI 405 for the spring. A proposal with preliminary bibliography is due by the week after Thanksgiving to the faculty person teaching SOCI 405, the advanced research seminar. Students will work closely with the faculty teaching 405 but may seek guidance from other members of the faculty both within and outside the department. Only the best projects will be granted Honors, but any student who completes the project will receive credit for SOCI 405.
110 Social Analysis Selected topics in the empirical study of the ways in which people's character and life choices are affected by variations in the organization of their society and of the activities by which social arrangements varying in their adequacy to human needs are perpetuated or changed.This course fulfills the DIV II social sciences and US Diversity requirements.
222 Family Phenomena In both the ideal and real worlds, the family is credited with producing social leaders and blamed for creating social misfits. Social scientists, policy makers, and writers have focused on the family as a central and powerful social institution. This course explores the nature and role of families, and how families vary across cultures and over time. The course will address such topics as socialization, gender, work-family issues, and domestic violence.
224 Families and Gender in Cross-Cultural Perspective In this comparative course in family systems, we will study the impact of production and politics on family life in various cultures, including Africa, Latin America, the Far East and the United States. The course uses ethnographic studies and documentaries to illuminate the impact of the political economy on family life, the life course, and gender roles and relationships. Various theories of development will place the ethnographies into socio-political and historical context. This course fulfills the DIV II social sciences distribution requirement and Comparative Civilizations graduation requirement.
225 Race and Ethnicity This course explores the historical and contemporary significance of race and ethnicity in the United States. Students will examine how racial inequality has become a pervasive aspect of U.S. society and why it continues to impact our life chances. We will address race and ethnicity as socio-historical concepts and consider how these "social fictions" (in collusion with gender, class, and sexuality) produce very real material conditions in everyday life. We will develop a theoretical vocabulary for discussing racial stratification by examining concepts such as prejudice, discrimination, systemic/institutional racism, racial formations, and racial hegemony. We will then look closely at colorblind racism, and examine how this dominant ideology naturalizes social inequality. With this framework in place, students will investigate racial stratification in relation to schools, the labor market, the criminal justice system, neighborhood segregation, immigration, etc. Finally, we will discuss strategies of anti-racism that seek to eliminate enduring racial hierarchies.This course fulfills the DIV II distribution requirement. Offered every two years.
226 Race, Class, and Gender Explores the personal, intergroup, and institutional dimensions of race, class and gender as simultaneous and interactive systems of meaning and experience. Examines theories of the economic, social and psychological dynamics of oppression; the social construction and reconstruction of identity; and the nature of racism, classism, and sexism. Social change strategies for eliminating oppression are also explored.
228 Sociology of Sexualities This course explores the social origins of sexual behaviors, identities, and desires. We will investigate how sexuality intersects with other social hierarchies including race, gender, and class. Our current frameworks for understanding sexuality and sexual identity are the product of social, political, and economic forces, and reflect the common sense of a particular historical moment. We will consider a wide range of theoretical and methodological approaches to the study of sexuality and explore more closely how these perspectives inform the analysis of contemporary sexual issues.This course fulfills the DIV II distribution requirement. Offered every two years.
230 Selected Topics in Sociology Courses which examine special topics in sociology and will include on a regular basis: Sustainability and Human Rights, Conflict Resolution, US Religious Diversity and various Mosaic courses (contact the Community Studies Center for more information).
233 Asian American Communities This class is designed to move from theoretical understandings of "race," and racial identity as it operates in our everyday lives to larger, structural determinants of race with special attention to the unique position of Asian Americans in U.S. race relations. This course focuses on social relations, political identities and activism, immigration and labor experiences to explore the ways Asian Americans have contributed to our larger histories as Americans. Broken down into three sections, this class analyzes the position of Asian Americans in the following interconnected contexts: (a) Asian Americans in relation to dominant society, (b) Asian Americans in relation to other communities of color, and (c) pan-Asian relations. This course fulfills the DIV II distribution requirement and the U.S. Diversity graduation requirement. Offered every year.
234 Middle Eastern American Communities This interdisciplinary course considers the history of Middle Eastern American communities, and the related development of "Islamophobia." We survey the history of the diverse immigrant communities that trace their heritage to a vast region of the world, the variously defined "Middle East." In the 1990s, Islamophobia emerged as a controversial concept after decades of discussion around Orientalism and anti-Arab racism. Today, some see Islamophobia as a catch-all concept for discrediting necessary anti-terrorism measures like profiling, surveillance, and wiretaps. Others see Islamophobia as fitting into a pattern of racialized scapegoating, where people experience violence and discrimination. Topics for discussion include ethnic group and identity formation, the "war on terror," connections between domestic and international US policy, and civil rights advocacy.This course fulfills the DIV II social sciences distribution requirement and the U.S. Diversity graduation requirement. This course is cross-listed as MEST 234. Offered every two years.
236 Inequalities in the U.S. This course takes a critical look at the layers of American society that shape, construct, and inhibit the basic pursuit for equality of opportunity. Students will be asked to examine how the three most fundamental elements of social stratification (race, class, and gender) function both separately and in tandem to organize systems of inequality. The course uses theoretical and practical applications of stratification to evaluate how social constructions of difference include the institutions and social policy. Additionally, class discussions will also consider how the forces of racism, sexism, and classism impact the attainment of basic needs, such as wages, health care, and housing.Offered every year.
237 Global Inequality Exploring the relationship between globalization and inequality, this course examines the complex forces driving the integration of ideas, people, societies and economies worldwide. This inquiry into global disparities will consider the complexities of growth, poverty reduction, and the roles of international organizations. Among the global issues under scrutiny, will be environmental degradation; debt forgiveness; land distribution; sweatshops, labor practices and standards; slavery in the global economy; and the vulnerability of the world's children. Under specific investigation will be the social construction and processes of marginalization, disenfranchisement and the effects of globalization that have reinforced the division between the world's rich and poor.Offered every year.
238 Consumer Culture The sociology of consumerism is a major specialty in European sociology, and is only recently receiving attention by American sociologists. In this class, we will examine the increasing importance of consumerism in daily life and the degree to which culture has become commercialized. We will discuss the sign value of commodities, as well as the shift from a stratification system based on the relationship of the means of production to one based on styles and patterns of consumption. We will also concern ourselves with the relationships between consumption and more traditional sociological concerns such as gender, race, and social class.Offered every two years.
239 Work and Occupations "Never work just for money or for power. They won't save your soul or help you sleep at night." (Marian Wright Edelman) The problem is, work is all of those things: our livelihood, our mobility, and our identity. This course is a sociological examination of how we structure, fill, and define work in the United States. Course material will investigate how occupational positions have come to define American social stratification in terms of prestige, skill, and distributed rewards. Specifically, class discussions will be concerned with who occupies certain positions, how we socially construct occupational opportunities, and how this impacts life circumstances according to race, gender, and class. The goal is to understand, through the use of both theory and contemporary application, how the nature of work and occupations shapes our daily lives.Offered every two years.
240 Qualitative Methods This course introduces students to the theory and methods of social science research, beginning with an examination of the philosophies underlying various research methodologies. The course then focuses on ethnographic field methods, introducing students to the techniques of participant observation, structured and informal interviewing, oral histories, sociometrics, and content analysis. Students will design their own field projects. Prerequisite: 110 or ANTH 101. This course is cross-listed as ANTH 240.
244 Quantitative Research Methods The quantitative research methods course introduces students to basic principles of social science research methodologies and statistical analysis. Students will use examples from scholarly research to understand concepts related to research design, sample selection, appropriate measurement, and survey construction. Additionally, students will apply these concepts to conduct introductory data analysis. Using elemental tools of descriptive and inferential statistics, students will learn to quantitatively assess social research questions in order to draw meaningful conclusions. Prerequisite: 110 or ANTH 100 or ANTH 101. This course fulfills the DIV II social sciences distribution requirement and QR graduation requirement. This course is cross-listed as ANTH 241.
260 Ethnography of Jewish Experience Drawing upon ethnographies of Jewish communities around the world, this course focuses on such questions as: What is Jewish culture? What is common to Jewish cultural experiences across time and place? How might we understand the variability and local adaptations of Jewish life? These are the guiding questions and issues for this course, all to be considered within multiple contexts--from pastoral and agricultural roots to modern urban experience, from Middle Eastern origins to a Diaspora experience stretching across Asia, Africa, Europe and the Americas. This course fulfills the DIV 1.a. or DIV II distribution requirement. This course is cross-listed as JDST 220 and RELG 260.
270 Social Movements, Protest and Conflict The study of protest politics and social movements is the study of collective agency. Social movements arise when people act together to promote or resist social change. Movements represent not only grievances on a particular set of issues, but also frustration with more established political forms of making claims in societies. In this course, we will engage with some of the large theoretical debates in the study of social movements, reading both empirical treatments of particular movements and theoretical treatments of key issues. The featured case studies will include civil rights, feminism, ecology, the antinuclear movement, the New Right and the alternative globalization movement. We will be particularly concerned with the social and political context of protest, focusing on basic questions, such as: under what circumstances do social movements emerge? How do dissidents choose political tactics and strategies? And, how do movements affect social and political change?This course fulfills the DIV II social sciences distribution requirement and U.S. Diversity graduation requirement. Offered every year.
271 Comparative Social Policy This course will look at social policy in a comparative and global perspective. Gender, race, class and colonization will inform our comparison of policies and policy systems. This course also explores the increasing internationalization of social policy and the advent of a new "global social policy," whereby international organizations play a powerful role in shaping welfare state development in the developing world and in post-communist states. Topics covered will include comparative methodology; and international variation in formulation and response to issues, such as employment, housing, domestic violence, poverty, health, and child welfare. Offered every two years.
272 Islam and the West This course examines the contemporary relationship between the Islamic world and the Western world. In recent years, many interpretations of this relationship have developed, with some claiming a clash of civilizations is underway. The course critically engages the rapidly growing literature on this topic, while providing an introduction to the sociology of religion, an examination of so-called Western values and their Islamic counterparts, an analysis of key moments in recent history, and finally a survey of minority Muslim communities in the West.This course fulfills the DIV II social sciences distribution requirement and the Comparative Civilizations graduation requirement. This course is cross-listed as MEST 272. Offered every year.
310 Gender and the Media This course is concerned with a wide range of issues surrounding gender and the media. We will consider interpretations of gender both as essence and as construction, and we will examine the role of the media in contemporary culture. Finally, we will examine the representation of genders in the media as well as representations of gender by the media. Prerequisite: Either 110, 222, 224, 228 OR a course in WGST. This course fulfills the DIV II social sciences distribution requirement and U.S. Diversity graduation requirement.
313 Special Topics This course will focus on specialized topics within Sociology, such as Women and Health, Cuban Society and Economy.Prerequisite dependent upon topic.
325 Race, Family, and the Politics of Multiraciality This course examines the family as a social institution through which norms of racial distance and segregation have been vigorously upheld. We consider the political and economic investment in separating White families from African Americans, Native Americans, Asians, and later groups of immigrants, and pay special attention to how gender and sexuality were constructed in the service of these interests. Students will then explore more contemporary patterns of interracial families (including transracial adoptions), examining the experiences of those who have transgressed intimate racial boundaries or grown up in "mixed" families. We will analyze how interracial families blur racial categories and critically examine the politics of multiraciality as an identity and a social movement.Prerequisites: Either one course from the following: 110, 224, 225, 236 OR AFST 100 or 200. This course fulfills the DIV II distribution requirement. Offered every two years.
327 Sex, Gender, and Religion Exploring the interactions between religion and gender and sexuality, this course examines: how various religious traditions perceive sexuality and gender; the ways in which religion influences social policy both within the United States and globally; and the impact this has on individuals, families, and societies. The course focuses on contemporary concerns, while offering a comparative (historical and cross-cultural) introduction to these issues across several religious traditions. Particular emphasis is given to religious fundamentalisms across the three major monotheistic religions: Christianity, Islam, and Judaism.Prerequisites: Either 110, 222, 224, 228 or 310, OR one course from WGST or RELG, or permission of the instructor. Offered every two years.
330 Classical Sociological Theory This course will examine alternative ways of understanding the human being, society, and culture as they have been presented in classical sociological theory (through 1925). It will focus on the theoretical logic of accounting for simple and complex forms of social life, interactions between social processes and individual and group identities, major and minor changes in society and culture, and the linkages between intimate and large-scale human experience. Prerequisite: 110 and one additional course in sociology, or permission of instructor. Offered every fall.
331 Contemporary Sociological Theory This course will examine alternative ways of understanding the human being, society, and culture as they have been presented in contemporary sociological theory (1925-present). It will focus on the theoretical logic of accounting for simple and complex forms of social life, interactions between social processes and individual and group identities, major and minor changes in society and culture, and the linkages between intimate and large-scale human experience. Prerequisite: 110 and one additional course in sociology, or permission of instructor. Offered every spring.
333 The Sociology of Health and Illness This course is an examination of the theories and practices that constitute a sociological understanding of medicine, health, and illness. Social epidemiology, health care systems, stigma, medicalization, suffering, and death, are some of the phenomena considered.
344 Advanced Quantitative Data Analysis This course is intended for the social science major who is interested in a deeper exploration of the topics and techniques covered in an introductory course on social research methods. Students taking this course will have the opportunity to design their own research study, either by collecting original data or by using a secondary data source (such as the General Social Survey). The semester-long project will provide in-depth instruction on survey design, data collection, and data entry. Additionally, students will use the SPSS statistical package to comprehensively analyze data, from descriptive results to multiple regression. Prerequisite: 244, or the equivalent. This course fulfills the DIV II social sciences distribution requirement and QR graduation requirement. Offered every two years.
400 Senior Seminar A specialized seminar, intended to relate a broad area of theoretical concern to the problems and procedures of current research. Regularly offered topics: Measuring Race and Racism; Women, Culture, and Development; Sociology of Violence; Language and Power: Foucault and Bourdieu; American Society; Race and Ethnic Theory; Sexualities; Postmodernism, Culture, and Communication.Prerequisite: 110 and at least one from the list of required courses (SOCI 236, SOCI 240, SOCI 244, SOCI 330, or SOCI 331). Offered every fall.
405 Senior Thesis The Senior Thesis Colloquium in sociology provides students an opportunity to study a sociological problem independently and in-depth, while engaging in a colloquium where they will present and peer-review work. A student enrolled in SOCI 405 formulates a specific research question, identifies and reviews relevant literature, collects or obtains appropriate empirical data, analyzes data, and develops theoretically meaningful conclusions from the results of the analysis. A thesis is the written report of such a research project. Senior theses in sociology generally range from 35 to 50 pages in length. Proposals are due the Friday after Thanksgiving.

Klaus Says Global Warming "New Religion"
In the wake of the attention recently given to a policy paper that urged the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) to elevate environmentalism to a new religion, Czech President Vaclav Klaus is charging climate-change fanatics with having pursued precisely that course of action.
Third World Protest Stalls Copenhagen Talks
As the UN Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen begins its second week of discussions and negotiations, it appears that an impasse between First World and Third World nations has been averted.
Poll Shows Drop in Belief in Global Warming
A new CBS News/New York Times poll shows that a clear majority of the American people do not believe global warming should be a high priority for government action. What they do believe should be the priority is the economy.
Gore cancels Copenhagen speech in aftermath of Climate-gate
For years, former Vice President Al Gore has foisted his environmental jeremiads on the world, traveling by private jet to calling upon the industrialized world to repent of its polluting ways. Now, as the nations of the world gather in Copenhagen to discuss addressing the climate change which Gore had proclaimed was threatening the Earth with near-certain doom, the man who only weeks ago was appealing to the "collective will" of mankind may be absenting himself from the proceedings.
Copenhagen Conference Has Massive Carbon Footprint
The veracity of proponents of the theory of man-made climate change is very much in doubt in the days leading up to the UN conference in Copenhagen. However, one thing that will be proven beyond a doubt in the next several weeks is that not all pollution is created equal: Some pollution is apparently sanctified by the context of its generation.
'Copenhagen Diagnosis' Ramps Up the Rhetoric
In the aftermath of revelations of "Climategate," proponents of the theory of manmade climate change are ramping up the rhetoric in the remaining days before the UN Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen, where they will press for extreme measures to combat climate change.
Obama Commits to Copenhagen, and a "Green" India
Obama's September trip to Copenhagen to plead with the International Olympic Committee to consider Chicago as host city for the 2016 Summer Games did not work out very well for the United States — and his next scheduled trip to Denmark promises to leave our nation's score at 0–2.
Global Carbon Dioxide Levels Rise; Temperature Does Not
With the start of the UN Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen only two weeks away, pressure is increasing for industrialized world — and the United States, in particular — to submit to plans which would severely restrict industries (such as power plants) which emit carbon dioxide, while transferring wealth to Third World nations to encourage adoption of "green" technologies.
"Global Warming" Cannot Face the Facts
As the scientific data used to support theories of anthropogenic (human caused) "climate change" grows more and more tenuous, environmental extremists and their internationalist allies continue to turn up the heat on their rhetoric.
Senate Not Settled on Cap and Trade
Apparently, the Senate will not be voting on "cap and trade" any time soon, and all UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon can do about it is tap his foot impatiently and complain to the media.

text: Ai Weiwei's new opinion piece in Newsweek. The thought I could disappear just with disagreeing with the Republican Party or the Democrat Party scares me to my core. Especially since I am such a vocal person. Thankfully, I live in the USA. Hopefully, someday, my fellow Chinese on the Mainland can live freely and without such fears.

2 pack?Pros: It's a screen that protects your psp. Cons: First off there is only 1 in my box like the rest of the reviewers said so you only get 1 shot at this. I cleaned my screen and looking at the protector i noticed 2 dents in it the size of a pin needle. I figured it would just smooth out when i put it on but it didn't. So i have to very small bubbles were the creases were. It's also a tiny bit too large for the screen. Other Thoughts: Go with a different brand. Did you find this review helpful? |
It's cut too large!Pros: easy to apply, if you're okay with it not being able to stick to the entire screen Cons: It's just barely too large, so none of the edges adhere to the screen. Since the screen on my PSP3000 tapers inward on the edges, there's nothing for the screen protector to adhere to. It needs to be about 1/2mm smaller. Maybe this was a manufacturing defect, but it does make this item unusable for me. Did you find this review helpful? |
works wellPros: does what it is advertised to do. Cons: As others have noted, the application can be tricky. I had it misaligned at first and had to take it off and reset it. I have 2 specs of dust that got under the cover, so now i have 2 small air bubbles with a spec under 'em. Really not very noticeable though. Other Thoughts: Just be careful when you apply it. Great product though, and I will buy another when/if mine needs replacing. Did you find this review helpful? |
does what it's supposed to doPros: it keeps the screen from scratches, what more can I ask for? Cons: you have to be careful when putting it on, but it takes only a few minutes and never bothers you. Other Thoughts: some people said that it looks bad in the sun, but I didn't have any problem with this. 0 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
App. is DiffPros: Protects the screen. Reduces glare. If your careful this is all you need to protect your psp. Cons: Application is extremely difficult. Make sure you use the squeegee that comes with it to remove the bubbles. Other Thoughts: This only comes with one screen protector so if you botch it you will have to buy another one which is what happened to me. 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
i hate these thingsPros: protects the psp Cons: i hate when the product cost less than the shipping 0 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Got To Get ItPros: You would never have to worry about scratching the PSP screen. When the screen gets dirty just wipe it off with a baby wipe. Cons: It was hard to get it on the first time and even hard to smooth out the bubbles. 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
does what it is ment to doPros: It protects does what it is supose to do. Cons: for all those people that complain dont be an idiot do it right, and you will never have to replace it Other Thoughts: put min on in under 2 min, have not replaced it in about 1 year 4 out of 5 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Waste of $Pros: none Cons: Only one in packet and if put it on wrong ....hahah good luck Other Thoughts: just buy a case for it 0 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Waste of $5Pros: Only $x Cons: There was only one protector in the package. There are two thin sheets protecting the protector itself - after removing one and applying(as per the instructions) the other sheet would not come off. Other Thoughts: By the time I got the top film off of the protector I had been forced to remove it from the PSP. By then it was ruined and useless. Had there been the advertised second protector in the package I may have been able to use it. Alas, that was not the case. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |

After i came to the fourth or fifth level, i noticed that i don't have any weapon pool i only take the default weapons(I'm now on 18th level and i always took default weapons). Why is that??
