Teresa Carter and Frank Richard Carter III,
Appearance for Petitioners:
C. Peter Gossels, Esq.
84 State Street
Boston, MA 02109-2299
Appearance for Respondent Board:
Michael A. West, Esq.

Boston, MA 02111-1227
Appearance for Intervenors:
David J. Himmelberger, Esq
One Hollis Street, Suite 400
Wellesley, MA 02482
Administrative Magistrate:
Maria A. Imparato
After decision was issued in case submitted on the documents under 801 CMR 1.01(10)(c) at the request of the Petitioners, the Petitioners requested a hearing.
Madgie Cox and Alvie Grimes filed an appeal on October 31, 2007, under G. L. c. 32, s. 16 (4) of the Boston Retirement Board's failure to act to recognize the Petitioners as the beneficiaries of the Board's deceased member, Mack Grimes. By email communication of November 7, 2007 the Board indicated that Teresa Carter and Frank Richard Carter III are deemed to be the rightful beneficiaries of Mack Grimes. (Exs. 1, 2)
By letter of December 10, 2007, the Petitioners requested that the matter be handled as a Submission Without a Hearing under 801 CMR 1.01(10)(c). I marked documents into evidence (Exs. 1 - 11) and issued a decision on March 11, 2008 concluding that Teresa Carter and Frank Richard Carter III were the rightful beneficiaries of Mack Grimes.
The Petitioners' election to waive a hearing was conditional. In their letter to DALA dated December 10, 2007, the Petitioners stated, "The Petitioners, nevertheless, reserve their right to a hearing in the event that the Board's response shall challenge any of the allegations of fact set forth in the Brief enclosed." Briefs challenging the Petitioners' allegations of fact were filed on January 11, 2008, by the Board and on January 15, 2008, by the Intervenors. By letter dated March 10, 2008 to DALA, the Petitioners claimed a right to a hearing. The Petitioners subsequently appealed to the Contributory Retirement Appeal Board (CRAB.)
By decision of June 12, 2009, CRAB vacated my decision and remanded the case to DALA stating, "If on remand DALA finds that its decision issued before it received petitioner's request for a hearing, then DALA need only amend its decision to include that finding. We would affirm such an amended decision because petitioners have not called our attention to any error of law in the decision itself, assuming the facts found by the magistrate."
I hereby issue an amended decision finding that my decision issued before DALA received the Petitioners' request for a hearing. I also add to the record Exhibits 12 and 13 in support of that finding. An amended list of exhibits appears on the last page of this decision.
I incorporate by reference Findings of Fact 1 - 17 from my decision of March 11, 2008 as if fully set forth herein. I hereby make additional findings of fact.
18. By letter dated March 10, 2004 to then-First Magistrate Kimberly A. Fletcher, the Petitioners claimed "their right to a hearing in the above-entitled matter." The letter was date-stamped as received at DALA on March 11, 2008. (Ex. 12)
19. By letter of March 11, 2008 to Petitioners' counsel from First Administrative Magistrate Fletcher she stated, "Today I received your letter dated March 10, 2004 after the decision in this case was issued." (Ex. 13)
I hereby incorporate by reference the Conclusion and Order in my decision of March 11, 2008 as if fully set forth herein.

Thanks guys! I'm feeling a lot better about it today. He did great on his first night. I'm up at my old work having lunch and I guess everybody got to meet Ollie earlier when they stopped by. It made me glad to know he's getting to do exciting things!
Boss also seems to be feeling a bit better. I can tell he's still kind of confused but he's eating and pooping and everything so that's good, haha!

Hey folks,
I remember reading a few months ago (it may have been in the DIY subforum, I'm not sure now) a thread about this great hammock invention that was still in the making. It was so good and yet so simple that once revealed we were all going to kick ourselves for not thinking of it first.
I wish I had bookmarked the thread, because now I'm curious to learn what became of this greatest invention since the hammock ridgeline.
Does anyone have any clue about the outcome of that project?
Thanks for sharing...

Manchester school board to consider naming for Memorial field for Mike FlanaganBy PAUL FEELY
New Hampshire Union Leader
April 07. 2013 10:22PM
MANCHESTER - The city's School Board is scheduled to take up a request tonight to name the baseball field at Memorial High School in honor of the late Mike Flanagan.
The request stems from a memo by Mayor Ted Gatsas on Jan. 9, asking aldermen to explore naming the field after the former Baltimore Orioles Cy Young Award-winning pitcher and Memorial graduate. Tonight's meeting of the full School Board gets underway at 7 p.m. at City Hall.
"Mike was an important student and athlete at Memorial High School and his family and friends believe this would be a wonderful tribute," wrote Gatsas in his memo.
Flanagan, who celebrated a World Series championship in 1983 with the Baltimore Orioles, was found dead at his Maryland home in August 2011. His death was ruled a suicide. He was 59.
Recognized at the 2000 New Hampshire sports banquet as one of the state's top 10 athletes of the 20th century, Flanagan sent a written appreciation of the honor. "New Hampshire offered me the opportunity to learn my craft," he wrote. "The memories of those years in youth baseball are more vivid than my major league memories."
While in the Queen City, Flanagan helped lead Memorial to back-to-back NHIAA Class L titles in basketball and baseball in 1970 and '71. In college, pitching at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, he posted a 9-1 record in 1973 with a 1.52 ERA.
Fast forward to 1979, and he had become the best pitcher in the American League with a 23-9 record, 3.08 ERA and 190 strikeouts, earning him the Cy Young Award as baseball's top pitcher. In 1983, after going 12-4 during the regular season, he pitched Baltimore to a win over the Chicago White Sox in the American League Championship Series, en route to a World Series title for the Orioles.
Flanagan won 167 games over his 18-year major league career, and seven postseason contests.
After playing for the Toronto Blue Jays, he ended his career in an Orioles uniform, pitching 42 games for Baltimore in 1992. At the time of his death, he was one of the team's television broadcasters.
The city's Committee on Lands and Buildings has recommended Memorial's Field be named in Flanagan's honor, subject to the approval of the School Board, but not without some opposition.
During a committee discussion held Jan. 15, Alderman Joe Kelly Levasseur voted against the request.
According to the official minutes of that session, Levasseur said, "My understanding is that when we named a field after Clem Lemire or we name things after people from Manchester, they have actually been people who have been very involved in their communities, not just because they were born here and then did well at a high school level. I'm going to ask you this because I don't know and maybe you know more than I do, but I don't remember Mike Flanagan ever becoming very involved in our community after he made it to the major leagues. As a matter of fact, I don't remember him ever coming back and doing anything for the City of Manchester.
"There are a lot of other athletes like Steve Balbone or Joey Senical, who was a community guy who still lives in the city who pitched two shutouts in the last year of my high school career. I see a lot of people who are still living in the city of Manchester, who give a lot of the city of Manchester, who still live here, work here. I don't remember Mike Flanagan ever coming back to Manchester and performing any kind of charitable work or community activist type work or anything of that nature in the city of Manchester."
Attempts to reach Levasseur this weekend for comment were unsuccessful.
Details regarding possible signage showcasing Flanagan's name at the field have yet to be worked out.
The Board of Aldermen accepted the recommendation to name the field at a meeting on Feb. 5.

Chalk up another victory for the new boss.
Fort Lewis College is hoping the years end result is the same as it was for most of the members of the old boss.
A strong improvement after halftime pushed the No. 1 Fort Lewis mens soccer team over the FLC alumni 5-1 on Saturday in the annual alumni game at Dirks Field.
The Skyhawks kicked off their campaign to repeat as national champions by taking on the still-very-capable remnants of FLCs soccer past, including a handful of members of last years title team who since have graduated.
The game struggled for a bit to settle until the 2012 squad broke through in the 13th minute. Austin Derksen, a redshirt freshman who was dynamic on the left wing for most of the match, made a nice run down the left sideline before setting up Kosta Kordistos. Kordistos shot was snuffed by former FLC goalkeeper Devin Zimmerman, but Derksen slotted home the rebound to give the Skyhawks a 1-0 lead.
Its been a long time, I feel ... hopefully theres more to come, Derksen said of his goal.
The alumni, however, wouldnt go quietly. A long through ball found its way onto the speedy feet of Cole Sweetser, who sprinted past the defense, chipped over goalkeeper Ryan Schaul and then tapped the ball home to square the game at one in the 17th minute.
We just treat it as trying to come in and be better than a (Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference) team and give them the same test as a warmup. ... We have a team thats very capable of competing every year, alumnus David Barden said.
Jordan Alexander broke the deadlock in the 37th minute when his shot from the right of the penalty area ticked off Zimmerman and trickled over the line despite Luc Cisnas best effort.
Kordistos found the back of the net in the 56th minute, taking a goal kick that ricocheted off a pair of players, trapping it down and firing a hard shot through former teammate Ryan Wirth for a 3-1 lead. Kordistos and Wirth later would collide on a 50-50 ball, but both left under their own power and appeared OK.
Casey Dean capped the scoring with a pair of goals in the 65th and 66th minutes. His first was a beautiful shot from about 20 yards out off the bounce that tucked under the crossbar, and his second came off a nice low cross from Derksen, which he tapped home for the final 5-1 margin.
Despite taking the lead into halftime, FLC head coach Oige Kennedy said he was displeased with the lack of pace and lack of possession in the first half, something FLC hopes to clean up before opening the regular season Friday against 10th-ranked Incarnate Word. Playing against alumni with national titles to their name didnt help matters.
Definitely urgency ... we just really werent playing at the pace we normally play at. ... Weve got to really push it to teams, especially at home, Kennedy said.
Pace and possession improved noticeably after the break thanks to some capable passing both on defense and in the midfield. Kennedy was pleased with the output of the midfielders he rotated in, including Derksen, Sameth Al-Basith, Alberto Capdepon, Daniel Wilson, Aaron Kloer, Yannis Becker and Dawson Emrich.
Just more enthusiasm and energy in there (late) really made a difference, Kennedy said.
Defensively, the Skyhawks went with a combination of Johannes Sander and fellow German Maik Brandt in the center with a cast of Artur Piperkov, Kyle Woodson and Grant Duke on the outside for most of the game.
Barden, a forward who scored the national title-clinching goal in 2009, said the new-look D acquitted itself well, as did the rest of the Skyhawks.
Good to see some of the newer boys kind of fit into the system, Barden said.

Gutsy pick by the Charlotte Bobcats, and a good one.
Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, the small forward out of Kentucky, can do everything but shoot. At 18, he can learn to shoot. He is relentless, athletic and intense and, man, does he work.
I've been on the Kidd-Gilchrist bandwagon since the Bobcats learned they would not draft first.
Glad to have company.

Proposed Canon
Haffaton was a side involved in conflict with Goodminton around the time when Wanda popped. Haffaton is unallied at the time,IPTSF Text 6 but later gets Frenemy and Quisling as allies.IPTSF Text 26 After the destruction of Goodminton, Haffaton obtained the services of Wanda. At the peak of its power, Haffaton were rumoured to have 40 or 50 cities, and almost completely surrounded the secret kingdom of Faq. If it had been aware of Faq's existence, it could almost certainly have conquered that small country, and perhaps have gained the services of a predictamancer and a foolamancer.
Haffaton's livery is "black with white trim".IPTSF Text 7
At some point Haffaton employs High Elves as natural allies.IPTSF Text 27
Haffaton's Overlord went by the name of 'Judy Gale '.
Haffaton possessed the Arkenshoes.
Known Cities
- Capital City of Haffaton, level 5 IPTSF Text 14
- another level 5 city IPTSF Text 14
- Kiloton, level 4, Haffaton's second-largest production center IPTSF Text 11
- Plankton, level 2
- Coolminton, level 1 IPTSF Text 25
- Efbaum, level 5, Capital site
- Faq, level?, Capital Site
- Kibo, level?
- Otoh, level?
Haffaton held the following cities before Goodminton captured them:
- Goodfinger, level ?, which originally belonged to Goodminton
- Frankburg, level 1
- Hamfurter, level 1
Haffaton held the following cities before Faq razed them:
- Diecast, level 2
- Goodminton, level 2, Capital site IPTSF Text 47
- Olive Branch, Florist, Level 12, Overlady, former Chief Caster
- Wanda Firebaugh, Croakamancer, Turned to Faq

- Judy Gale, Overlord, returned to Stupidworld
- J. Banhammer, Prisoner, Released
- Tina, Turnamancer, Deceased
- Barton, Dollamancer, Deceased
- Komatsu, Dirtamancer, Deceased
- Maxwell, Thinkamancer, Deceased
- Maya Calendar, Predictamancer, Deceased
- Orwell, Lookamancer
Known units

- Commanders
- Animated Units
- Uncroaked (after Wanda joins Haffaton)IPTSF Text 28
- Tannenbaums
- Scarecrows
- Metal Golems
- Plant units as yet unnamed.
- Natural Allies
According to Overlord Firebaugh, Goodminton has faced Foolamancy, Thinkamancy, Hat Magic, Wierdamancy and Carnymancy in its fight against Haffaton (in addition to Olive Branch's Flower Power). As most casters are unable to cast outside of their discipline, this likely indicates that Haffaton has a sizeable number of casters.
Real World References
The name Haffaton refers to the expression "half a ton" or "half ton" (roughly equal to 1000 pounds).
Another possible interpretation would be the expression "(to) have a ton", as in "I have a ton of units".
Haffaton may also refer to halftone - "technique that simulates continuous tone imagery through the use of dots, varying either in size, in shape or in spacing". This technique is used in printing photographic images - usually black-and-white - in newspapers (which may explain Haffaton's black and white livery).
Haffaton may also be a corruption of "half a town" implying that it is a mere shell.

Financial theory tells us that investors should expect a positive relationship between risk and return: Those who assume greater levels of market risk are expected to earn higher returns, while lower risk portfolios should earn lower returns. However, investors should not expect to earn higher returns by accepting higher levels of risk from single stocks or a concentrated portfolio, because the markets do not compensate investors for risks that easily can be diversified away.
Key to determining an investment is a measurement to estimate the magnitude of the risk-return tradeoff that can differ across investments and investment managers. Performance measures may show that a high return is not attractive given the extraordinarily high level of risk that is needed to earn that return, while lower levels of return may be quite attractive if they come with minimal risk.
There are two major types of performance measures. First, there are ratios of return to risk. Return can be expressed in several ways in the numerator, and risk can be expressed in numerous ways in the denominator. The denominator of the ratio can be any risk measure, although the most popular performance measures employ the most widely used risk measures, such as volatility (standard deviation) or beta. The risk measure may be an observed estimate of risk or the investor's belief regarding expected risk. These ratios include those developed by William Sharpe, Jack Treynor and Frank Sortino.
A second method to measure performance is to generate the risk-adjusted return of an asset and compare that return to a standard. The alpha measure, developed by Michael Jensen, compares the return on an investment to the expected return on an investment of similar risk.

I feel at such a loss and overwhelmed over this whole breastfeeding thing and need some help and guidance.
My baby girl was born via emergency c-section 2 weeks early and weight 5lb5oz at birth. I wasn't allowed to have skin to skin right away as she was whisked away to be cleaned and poked and prodded. I didn't get to see her until 2 hours after birth at which point we attempted breastfeeding. My left nipple is inverted and my right is flat but bigger than the left.
Breastfeeding was a struggle from the get-go and I saw three different LCs at the hospital before I left. Each one helped me out and feeding her was a little bit better each time but it's still a huge struggle. I was taught the football hold because of my c-section incisions. I was given a nipple shield to use during feeding and shells to wear the rest of the time and told to pump at every other feeding. Because of her small size they told me to wake her every 2 hours to feed her, which I did. Towards the middle of her second week, she started sleeping for 4 hours at a stretch and would not be roused awake. Even when I tried waking her up at 2-3 hours she would just fall asleep the second her head was by my breast so I just began letting her sleep and having her tell me when she was hungry.
I tried on demand feeding but her cues weren't great. She would sleep, then as soon as she woke up she would start crying (a hunger cry I would assume) so I would change her diaper right away (as she never cries with a soiled diaper so I always have to check when she wakes up) and then breastfeed her. I hated the nipple shield so I tried it once in the middle of the night without it and she was able to latch so I decided to give it up.
The struggle we were having then was she refused to stay latched. I would put the nipple in her mouth, she would suck once, push it away with her hand while pulling her head back, start crying and then open her mouth again to indicate hunger. This would happen for a long time until she finally latched or I gave up in frustration. And sometimes when feeding she would also fall asleep in the middle which was when I would say "all done" and put her to sleep. Some of those feedings didn't take very long either...at the shortest 4 minutes and the longest 13 minutes. But I was concerned she wasn't eating enough so I called a private LC who does house calls.
After her evaluation she told me to use the nipple shield for 5 mins in the beginning and then latch her off the shield and onto my nipple. She also told me to "wake" her in the middle of feedings by doing baby crunches and not to just take her falling asleep as her being done because she wasn't at such short feedings. I did get reassurance she was eating though because she had gained weight since her last weight at the pediatricians.
Our feedings were going slightly better but still not great. We had less problems with her latching off continuously (except for an hour battle yesterday with both of us in tears...) and she seemed to be feeding for 20 or more minutes at a stretch but usually 15 minutes. She still was sleeping 4 hours at night and sometimes 3 during the day which the LC said was fine and not to wake her just to feed. She also is having a ton of wet diapers and pooping a lot too so that was another sign she was eating well.
So I tried doing the shield in the beginning and then switching to the bare nipple. It worked a couple of times. But for the most part, as soon as I took it off and gave her my nipple she would just leave it in her mouth and fall asleep even though she was sucking on the shield. So now I try just the bare nipple first to see if she will take it and most times she will. The other problem I am having now is she stops sucking and I feel like she doesn't/can't get into a rhythm. I have to do either compressions with my thumb or gently nudge her under her chin (which is what the LC told me to do) to get her going again. Other times I will put the bare nipple in her mouth and she just stares at me and doesn't do anything. But usually she doesn't have her eyes open once she gets going, she will suck with her eyes closed but she is awake.
Yesterday I also noticed that when my nipple came out of her mouth, it looked flattened. I have very large areolas and very large breasts (was a 38/40 DD before and haven't been measured since but assume it has gone up at least 2 cup sizes because they look mammoth) and I cannot really see how much of the areola she has in her mouth because when I try to lift the breast to check it usually moves in her mouth and I don't get an accurate view. So now I am convinced she isn't latched correctly. However, I do not have pain, just the initial latch but after that it's fine.
Another weird thing she does is sometimes she will breathe very loudly with the nipple in her mouth without sucking and will let out a wheeze. Does that mean I am suffocating her or is that normal? It just sounds scary.
Last night she actually fed on the right breast for almost 30 minutes. As soon as I picked her up and was about to lay her down on the changing table to change her diaper she spit up and it came out her nose and mouth. I got so scared! She has spit up a couple of times before, not really sure what triggers it as the feedings weren't long then, and the pediatrician assured me that spitting up was normal but it makes me feel so bad as I spent all that time feeding her and now it's gone to waste.
Yesterday we had our follow-up phone call and the LC also told me to not to sleep with my shells in as they could cause blocked ducts depending on how I slept. I tried it last night and when it was feeding time, even with the shield, I was in A LOT of pain! My nipples also looked like they went back to "normal" (ie. before I started wearing the shells to draw them out). So I ended up putting them back in.
Thank you to anybody that can help me out or offer any guidance because I am getting to a point where I dread feedings and that is not what I should be feeling. I should be bonding. I love her so very much and only want what's best (which is breastfeeding) and really don't want to give up but with all the problems we are having I am not able to enjoy my time with her. As it is all she does is sleep and eat. She has very few awake moments during the day when she's not feeding so I get no play time with her. Sometimes I will lay her on my chest after a feeding just to have some time bonding.

Richard (Dick) Mayfield reached 101 years of age, and a few days later passed away surrounded by his family. Dick showed his values by example rather than just talking about them. He helped people through his work and by supporting many charities.
Dick was born in Quincy, Mass. September 18, 1912. He and his family moved to a house on the Willamette River near Milwaukie, Ore. when he was six years old. He and his friends rode the streetcar to school and bought pies to eat before dinner on their way back home. This love of pie continued his entire life. He joined Kappa Sigma at University of Oregon and majored in education. He later received an advanced degree from Stanford University. He was a successful amateur boxer in college, and this would surprise those who knew him later in life as a quiet and gentle man. Dick was teaching school in La Grande, Ore. in 1941 when he joined the U.S. Navy to become a First Lieutenant. His ships provided attack landing support for campaigns in Italy and then later in the Pacific Theater. After WWII, he moved to Clovis, Calif., where he was Dean of Boys at the high school. Later he moved to Bakersfield, Calif., to work as a psychologist for the Kern County Office of Education. This is where he met Doris, his wife of 64 years. She was a speech therapist in the same office, and they fell in love at first sight. In 1952, they moved to Salinas, Calif., which became the family home for 40 years. Both Dick and Doris continued to work in education. Dick was the first psychologist hired by the Salinas City Schools, and was in charge of elementary, secondary, and community college systems.
After retiring from his career in psychology, Dick (and Doris) opened Butterchurn Antiques, which kept them searching treasure in places such as Turkey, Russia, Thailand, Hong Kong, Portugal, Spain, and England. He loved a good bargain, both getting them and giving them. Dick always wanted to return to Oregon and did so in 1991. Doris and Dick moved the antique business north to Medford, Ore., and lived at the Rogue Valley Manor, where they enjoyed many friends. Dick participated as a volunteer in a number of ways: for example, leading tours for Rogue Valley Manor residents, providing help for Habitat for Humanity, and also helping run the tourism office for the Chamber of Commerce.
Dick was an intellectual, a constant reader, and freely shared his thoughts through numerous published letters to the editor advocating for educators, and supporting funding for the homeless, physically and mentally disabled, and other people in need.
Dick is greatly missed by his wife, Doris; daughter, Billie Ann (Bryn) Evans; sons, Gordon (Janet) Mayfield and David (Carlotta) Mayfield; grandchildren, Bryn, Doug, Jenny, Tara, and Alexa; and great-grandchildren, Jeremy, Conner, Frankie, and Bowe. Anyone interested in donating in celebration of Dick's life can contribute to RVM Transportation at Rogue Valley Manor Foundation, 1200 Mira Mar Drive, Medford, OR., 97504.

Extending the diamond network modelGeisler Asmussen, Christian; Pedersen, Torben; Dhanaraj, Charles (København, 2006)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: We extend the 'centers of excellence' concept in the multinational corporation (MNC) literature to address the diversity and the multidimensionality of subsidiary competence and link such diversity to the host country environment. Using Rugman and Verbeke's (1993) diamond network model of competitive advantage of nations, we hypothesize the contingencies under which heterogeneity in host environments influences subsidiary competence configuration. We test our model with data from more than 2,000 subsidiaries in seven Western European countries. Our results provide new insights on the evolution of subsidiary competence and how MNCs can overcome 'unbalanced' national diamonds by acquiring complementary capabilities across borders. Keywords: MNC environment, subsidiary competence configuration, industrial clusters, differentiated networks, subsidiary embeddedness. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/7471

Geisler Asmussen, Christian; Pedersen, Torben; Petersen, Bent (København, 2005)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: The IB literature informs us of several ways to measure firms' degree of internationalization. In this paper we make the argument that in fact none of the existing indices really measure firms' degree of "global specialization", that is, to what extent their allocation of resources is multidomestic or global. As argued, all the existing measures may gauge a purely multidomestic firm as having a high degree of internationalization, whereas a truly global firm may be ranked low. In order to remedy this we introduce a complementary index measuring how firms are configuring their value chains – whether they are replicating value chain activities from country to country or locating them in globally specialized units in order to exploit an international division of labor. In addition to mathematical modeling and numerical examples, we examine the relevance of the new index of global specialization on data of Danish MNCs by looking at the correlation between the new global specialization index and existing indices of firms' degree of internationalization. We find that the index is able to identify a distinct group of firms with significantly higher degrees of global value chain configuration. Key words: Internationalization, value chain, global configuration. JEL Codes: F02, F23, L22, L23 URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/7480

Quantifying MNC Geographic ScopeGeisler Asmussen, Christian (København, 2006)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: This paper proposes a multidimensional index of regional and global orientation which can be used in confirmatory studies with econometric methodologies. Unlike extant measures, the index is objectively scaled and controls for home country orientation and market size differences. The index is shown to be consistent with models of internationalization that incorporate different assumptions about strategic choice and global competition. Preliminary results show that large multinationals follow home region oriented internationalization paths, although much of the regional effect reported by previous studies in fact reflects strong home country biases. Keywords: globalization; regional integration; global strategy; regional strategy; local strategy; triad; liability of foreignness URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/7433

Jeff Andvik
Who is Ali? Who is the person who lurks underneath the name skr33ch?
Alistair Uz
well my good friend, Ali, also known as alistair, is a 3rd year university student at McGill, Montreal, Canada, studying information systems. He is also 20 years old and known for his womenizing abilities all around the world (the last one is a lie) The other stuff pretty much ordinary: I smoke, I drink, I like a good party, but currently I am in an 8 month relationship which is kinda changing me.. let's hope for the best.
Jeff Andvik
wow, 8 months. Longest I ever done was 2.5 months :P
Alistair Uz
damn.. that is short : P
Jeff Andvik
I keep gettin bitches as gf's .. its no fun, all I want is a nice good girl who loves me for who I am :( ohh well
Jeff Andvik
Who is your favourite artist? (both gfx and music, list both)
Alistair Uz
well now that I recently saw the digitalvision infinity catalogue, I must say that Jens karlsson, Mike young, and shinter really impress me with their art. Also, shadowness was very inspiring, ass-itch, verion.. (cant think of any but im sure there are more)
Jeff Andvik
Alistair Uz
music, well im not gonna list the pro's out there cuz they have it all
Jeff Andvik
some pro's wouldnt hurt to list :P
Alistair Uz
so i'm gonna go with probably you, cuz ur pretty much the only "dj" I have a decent conversation with and ur music is FUCKING GREAT!
Jeff Andvik
haha :D thank you
Alistair Uz
well pro's: Armin van Buuren, Ferry Corsten, Tiesto, Van dyk, Oeknfold sets, and sometimes more psy as in Infected mushroom, Astral projection etc..
Jeff Andvik
ahh :) I think your a clone of me :P
Alistair Uz
I seldom listen to hard trance and stuff like that.. feel as if they are banging on my head with sledge hammers, that bass just kills me
Jeff Andvik
You have been a part of depthCORE for a few packs now, what made you interested in being a part of dC?
Alistair Uz
well guess you know the answer to that, the high quality art that was being produced since the first pack.
Jeff Andvik
We have all seen the stunning contribution you have done to the last packs, I have a feeling many people are wonder where you pull your ideas from, what inspires you and keeps you going?
Alistair Uz
hmmm.. well for those who remember "verion", he had one piece in depthcore's 6th pack i believe, I can't remember the name exactly but it was a very organic piece, I guess that really inspired me in doing all the "organic" abstract meshes you see me doing these days, oh and also deus/ass-itch inspired me with his magnificent lighting.. hmm otherwise I just go with what my mind tells me to do What keeps me going is strong will power i guess :P
Jeff Andvik
definitely a good reason
Jeff Andvik
Do you have any special type of music that inspires you when making your art?
Alistair Uz
well I usually listen to trance/techno/psy-trance when making my images.. but sometimes some good rock bands can also do the trick (that is rare) Usually I just put a state of trance episode and just go on from there
Jeff Andvik
Alistair Uz
for sure!
Jeff Andvik
What type of tools do you like using in your art, and have you ever thought about trying new wierd things within the relm of abstract 3d?
Alistair Uz
hmm well, most of you already know the tools I use.. cinema4d and photoshop for most of my art. But now I tried my skills on 2d line art, and maybe in the future i'll go for other stuff, always nice to try and expand on your skills..
Jeff Andvik
Do you have any ideas of where you want to take your art? What your goal is, and what you want people to get from your art.
Alistair Uz
ah.. I knew this question was comin at me.. Well when I first started out, it was more of a hobby than anything professional, but now I really enjoy doing what I do.. to be honest I would love to have a career in digital design and multimedia, I guess I'll go for it if I ever have the time to study animation and such and can really expand on my skills.. otherwise I guess I'll just go with whatever I self taught myself.. What people want to get from my art.. well just try and feel the emotion I was feeling when I created that certain piece. I hope it does get out when people look at it..
Jeff Andvik
dont worry, so far, each time I see a piece of you .. my knees melt, I hope that was what you were wanting ;)
Alistair Uz
haha well it's always nice to get a compliment from an inspiring talent like you
Jeff Andvik
*bows and thanks you for the returned compliment*
Jeff Andvik
Since you said art started out as a hobby, but now has evolved, What are your current hobbies?
Alistair Uz
ah nice question.. well now I can't really say I have a hobby anymore.. I'm going to the gym? and I eat a lot of food as well : P hmm guess I started hanging out more with my friends, going to clubs, all that stuff u know nothing out of the ordinary.. But no new shocking hobbies to state really.. I'm kind of a boring guy : P
Jeff Andvik
boring is relative
Alistair Uz
yeah i guess : )
Jeff Andvik
What do you see for your future time at depthCORE? Do you have some ideas of what you want to accomplish in the time you will spend with us? World domination?
Alistair Uz
Oh yeah world domination was on the list I believe.. but jokes aside.. Well I want to contribute the way I do as usual.. hope to be an inspiring artist to the new comers and well maybe even trade geniouses with others..
Jeff Andvik
ahh, the words of a true artist!
Alistair Uz
It's nice to be in such a group because everyone has their own style, and trading skills can be a very good "plus" for both parties guess I got strayed away from the original question but what the hell..
Jeff Andvik
its ok :) we found out somthing else interesting!
Jeff Andvik
Why do YOU think depthCORE is so great? (We all know it is Great and perfect and all, but we all have different reasons for why)
Alistair Uz
hmmm well I mean it's pretty obvious in my opinion.. you look at other art groups (dont want to sound offensive or anything) but you can see the difference..
Jeff Andvik
I definitely agree
Alistair Uz
other art groups dont really last long .. we have lasted for 2 years and the quality is pretty much "out there".. we dont rely on who has the most stats at deviantART or any other gfx community our judge "ekud" has a really good "eye" on spotting such talent as well.. I think he is one of the factors on why we are different as well..
Jeff Andvik
onto a more humerous question
Alistair Uz
goodie : )
Jeff Andvik
What anoys you most and makes you want to blow stuff up and makes you ANGRY in the forums?
Alistair Uz
oh boy..
Jeff Andvik
Alistair Uz
well people who don't take critics as they should take it and get all offensive thinkin they are the "best" and people who try and give US advice on how to act "mature" jesus christ depthCORE is an art group and not a place for chatting and for those people who have a problem with us in the forums.. you are welcome to leave anytime..
Jeff Andvik
Have you ever gotten into "traditional art"? Like, do you use penciles and brushes etc in real life to do other styles of art, or are you pretty much focused on digital art?
Alistair Uz
hmmm well I was really into drawing when I was little (like 7-8 yrs old), I used to draw like mini muscular guys killing each other in a huge arena guess I had a traumatic childhood :P But currently.. I'm pretty much focused on digital art.
Jeff Andvik
we all now know the true source of Ali's art, his insane fury and lust for traumatic killing, (cant you see it in his art?) :P jk
Alistair Uz
Jeff Andvik
If you were conducting this interview with your self, what would you want everybody to know about you?
Alistair Uz
that I'm a helpful guy and don't be afraid to ask me anything.. and that people who just talk to me for my "tutorials" can piss off

State Parole Boards Use Software to Decide Which Inmates to Release
Programs look at prisoners' biographies for patterns that predict future crime
At the age of 13, Michael T. Murphy went into the woods near his home in rural New York with the 10-year-old boy who lived next door and stabbed him to death. Last year, having rejected Mr. Murphy's application 11 times over his more than a quarter-century in prison, the New York State Board of Parole set him free.
This time, the parole board deemed Mr. Murphy, then 41, to be a low risk for committing future crimes, according to parole board documents. The board reached its decision using a computer software program called...

Hope you all had a lovely and peaceful Christmas! This post was of course planned for yesterday but was too tired and caught up all day... why? because I just arrived in Thailand! Although I convinced myself I would not have the time to go, I decided last minute that my marketing report could just as well be done on the beach. One of the best decisions I've ever made. If it works remains to be seen.
But back a few days, this is what I wore on Christmas. I love the overly long checked skirt and weirdly I decided to ad even more print, but he polkadot shirt is so subtle it works together quite nicely I think. Although the clutch has only appeared on my blog once before, it's been a favorite this fall and will be available in yummy sorbet colors for spring.
Sunny pictures from Thailand coming up shortly, in the meantime you can check the posts from last years Thailand trip in the january and december archive if you feel like it.

TUCSON – UA pitchers allowed one hit, while Katiyana Mauga hit her first-career grand slam in Arizona's 11-1, five-inning victory over UTEP to open the two-game series Tuesday night at Hillenbrand Stadium.
Shelby Babcock (4-0) and Estela Piñon combined to allow a single hit in the five-inning victory, a Colleen Hohman solo homer in the second off of Babcock. The senior struck out three and did not walk a batter in her three innings of work. Piñon entered in the fourth inning and allowed just a single baserunner, a one-out walk in the fifth. The senior struck out four in two innings of work.
Mauga's first-inning grand slam set the tone for the game, as UA would plate 11 runs, marking the fifth, and second consecutive, game that Arizona has scored double-digit runs on the season.
Chelsea Goodacre (2-for-3, 2 RBI) and Alex Lavine (2-for-2, 2B, 1 RBI) also shined offensively for the Cats. Lavine is now 9-for-her-last-15 (.600) over her last six games.
The Wildcats took advantage of eight UTEP walks and two Miner errors, which led to a pair of unearned runs.
In the first inning, Arizona sent 10 players to the plate and scored six runs on just three hits. Hallie Wilson was hit by a pitch and Kellie Fox drew her team-high 13th walk of the year to put two on for Goodacre. A wild pitch moved both into scoring position before Goodacre drove them in with a single up the middle. After a pair of walks, Mauga hit a line-drive grand slam to straightaway center field, the freshman's third career homer and Arizona's third grand slam of 2014.
UTEP's Hohman led off the second with her third homer of the season. It would be the only hit UA pitchers would surrender all game.
Arizona added three runs in the second. UA loaded the bases for the second time in two innings on a pair of singles and a walk with one out. A Lauren Young groundout brought in the first run of the frame before Mo Mercado and Lavine would follow with RBI singles to put Arizona ahead 9-1 after two.
In the bottom of the third, a bases-loaded, two-out error allowed two additional runs to score to put UA ahead 11-1.

LONDON, Feb. 25 (UPI) -- Chimpanzees get a feeling of satisfaction from figuring out tricky puzzles whether they get a food reward or not, British researchers say.
Researchers from the Zoological Society of London set up puzzle tests for six chimpanzees at the society's Whipsnade Zoo that involved the primates using sticks to move red dice through a maze of pipes until they fall into an exit chamber.
Then the same puzzles were presented using Brazil nuts instead of dice that would fall not into a chamber but out of the puzzle as a tasty treat for the chimps.
"We noticed that the chimps were keen to complete the puzzle regardless of whether or not they received a food reward," zoological society researcher Fay Clark said. "This strongly suggests they get similar feelings of satisfaction to humans who often complete brain games for a feel-good reward."
The chimpanzees were not trained on how to use the device and doing the brain teaser was completely voluntary for the animals , she said.
"For chimps in the wild, this task is a little bit like foraging for insects or honey inside a tree stump or a termite mound; except more challenging because the dice do not stick to the tool," Fay said in a society release.
The researchers said the study suggests that like humans, chimpanzees are motivated to solve a puzzle even when there is no immediate reward, for the sake of the challenge itself.

Advanced Master of Science in Occupational Therapy Online
Advanced Master of Science in Occupational Therapy Online
Post-Professional Degree Program
Please note: As of May 1, 2017, the Advanced Master of Science in Occupational Therapy (AMOT) program is no longer accepting new enrollment applications. Students currently enrolled will graduate by 2019.
A.T. Still University's (ATSU) Advanced Master of Science in Occupational Therapy (AMOT) Program advances students in their occupational therapy practice, making a difference in their professional development as well as in the lives of the people they impact. Offered through ATSU's Arizona School of Health Sciences, this post-professional Masters degree program in Occupational Therapy is designed for practicing occupational therapists already holding an entry-level degree in occupational therapy. The AMOT Program can be completed entirely online providing optimal flexibility to accommodate busy schedules.
Program of Study
A.T. Still University's (ATSU) Post-Professional Master of Science in Occupational Therapy degree requires a minimum of 42 quarter credit hours. The AMOT Program's flexible design makes it possible to complete the degree in two years, on average. The program of study is divided into four areas:
- Professional Practice (9 credits required)
- Critical Inquiry (12 credits required)
- Electives (12 credits)
- Capstone Experience (9 credits)
Through the Arizona School of Health Science's AMOT degree program, working professionals have the freedom to complete their didactic studies at their convenience in the place of their choice – including the comfort of their homes. They also have the added convenience of a year-round academic calendar on the quarter system, providing more opportunities to complete coursework not only during the fall, winter and spring quarters (12 weeks each) but also during the summer quarter (6-8 weeks).
ATSU's post-professional AMOT Program fosters valuable interaction among students and faculty by providing access to a virtual community of practicing occupational therapists from across the country and around the globe. Connecting with a virtual community of one's professional peers paves the way for collaboration and empowers AMOT students and alumni to further build their professional networks.
Although faculty and students "meet" in online classroom environments, clinical (practice related) experiences are required to complete several of the core "Professional Practice" courses. AMOT students are encouraged to use their current practice settings to meet this requirement. In the event that a student is not employed/practicing at the time of a particular course requiring a clinical experience, the student is responsible for identifying and gaining access to a clinical practice setting applicable to the assignments required in the course.
AMOT Program requirements also include completion of a Capstone Project designed to promote students' development of practice-based scholarship. Through a series of three Capstone courses students have the opportunity to develop, implement and document a project related to their professional interests while participating in this experience along with a cohort group of their peers and the tutelage and support of faculty.
With a strong practice-based curriculum and built-in support throughout the program of study, ATSU's Advanced Master of Occupational Therapy Online Program empowers its students and alumni to become advanced evidence-based practitioners who are more competitive and current in practice standards.
First in Whole Person Healthcare
AMOT graduates will impact lives and gain the career edge with a renewed confidence in their abilities, knowledge, and comfort with current trends, while enhancing their profession with the support of a top health sciences university.

The Jets' search for a general manager could be moving in another direction.
The early favorite, 49ers director of player personnel Tom Gamble, will interview Tuesday with the Chargers, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Sunday night. Earlier Sunday, there were reports that Gamble had pushed back his Chargers interview, fueling speculation that a Gamble-Jets deal was on the horizon.
That isn't the case.
In the meantime, the Jets are said to be focused on another candidate. It's not clear if that person is Falcons director of player personnel Dave Caldwell, whom they interviewed Friday, or one of the two candidates slated to meet Monday with team officials -- Jets assistant GM Scott Cohen and Giants director of college scouting Marc Ross.
Caldwell reportedly is a leading candidate for the Jaguars' GM vacancy, but he could be a dark horse with the Jets. Unless there's a mystery candidate, the Jets must interview Ross to satisfy the Rooney Rule, which requires teams to interview at least one minority candidate.
Perhaps this latest twist is posturing on the part of the Jets -- and Gamble, for that matter.
This much is known: From the outset, the Jets were prepared to expand the search if they weren't blown away by someone in the first round of interviews. If they go that route, they could try to re-connect with Packers director of football operations John Dorsey. He was on their original interview list, but the situation turned fluid amid reports he was headed to the Chiefs.
Another possibility is Dolphins assistant GM Brian Gaine, a former Jets player and scout who comes with Bill Parcells' stamp of approval.
