35395, Children's Songbook, The Savior, When He Comes Again, 82-83
1. I wonder, when he comes again,
Will herald angels sing?
Will earth be white with drifted snow,
Or will the world know spring?
I wonder if one star will shine
Far brighter than the rest;
Will daylight stay the whole night through?
Will songbirds leave their nests?
I'm sure he'll call his little ones
Together 'round his knee,
Because he said in days gone by,
"Suffer them to come to me."
2. I wonder, when he comes again,
Will I be ready there
To look upon his loving face
And join with him in prayer?
Each day I'll try to do his will
And let my light so shine
That others seeing me may seek
For greater light divine.
Then, when that blessed day is here,
He'll love me and he'll say,
"You've served me well, my little child;
Come unto my arms to stay."

Creative Spotlight: Director Ross Ching and Empty America
Director Ross Ching has mastered the art of the time-lapse video and has recently done it in very innovative way. He has created an eerie video series, titled "Empty America," by removing the hustle and bustle that normally is the heartbeat of major U.S. cities, using Creative Suite 6 applications, Photoshop, After Effects and Premiere Pro. Check out our exchange with Ross on his inspiration and some of his quick video tips.
Adobe: Can you give a quick description highlighting your creative process/creative workflow for Empty America?
Ross Ching: People really find connections with things they recognize in situations that they don't recognize. It's almost as if the viewer is in on an inside joke. It's something that I always try to incorporate into my work, and that's why time-lapse, super slow motion and stop motion are so prevalent on the Internet. So when deciding which cities to feature in this series, I wanted people who have never even been to the locations to be able to pick out landmarks that they've seen before.
What was your inspiration behind the project?
I live in Los Angeles. I drive in Los Angeles. I think about traffic a lot in Los Angeles. A couple years ago, I discovered Matt Logue's Empty LA photographs. I didn't think much about it at the time, but every time I was stuck in rush hour all-hour traffic, I found myself thinking, "What if tomorrow everyone's car disappeared?" What would that scene look like? How would people react? How quickly would the atmosphere rebound from centuries of fossil fuel emissions?
So I took Matt Logue's still photography concept and applied it to something that I do best — time lapse. That Los Angeles video was very successful, and so I pitched an expansion of it to Thrash Lab, a destination for digital filmmakers created by Ashton Kutcher's Katalyst Network. They really liked it and believed in my work, and it's now the biggest set of videos on the channel.
Do you have any useful tips or techniques to share with the community?
When creating something for the Internet, people's attention span is VERY short. Think about how you look at other videos on YouTube and think about the how long it takes you to either skip through the video or click the back button. Our main goal as a video creator is to get the viewer to watch from beginning to end without skipping or hitting the back button. If they're able to do that, they're MANY times more likely to share the video with a friend — and that's how seeds of viral videos are made. So let's look at the elements to do that:
Must be short — 3 or 4 minutes or less. I've got many other tabs open and my pot of water on the stove is about to boil.
The 10 second hook — Probably the most important aspect. We need to WOW the viewer right off the bat. That means either showing them something they've never seen, or some kind of filmmaking technique that's really unique. Whatever it is, if your friend doesn't say WOW when you tell them the first 10 seconds of the concept, it's back to the drawing board.
Sustainability — Once you have them hooked, you need to create a device that pulls them to the end. Some examples: a story, beautiful cinematography, creative art, exciting visuals that are rarely seen. Anything that will get them interested in seeing what happens at the end.

There is a interesting bug in iPhone 4 photos where a blue tint shows up in the middle of the image. This bug has been widely noted and appears to effect only the back, 5mp camera and not the forward facing VGA camera. It also seems to still be a problem under iOS 4.2.1. Some have stated that this may because of the lighting conditions, while others have noted this effect under many different types of light.
I have not had this issue myself with my iPhone 4 or heard of any of my friends having it either. I wrote too soon! I tried taking a picture of a white blanket with my iPhone 4 for the post... and here is what happened..
After the shock lifted, I realized that at close range, I too have a blue tinge on my photos.
This is quite an annoying issue and I have been told of many people exchanging their iPhone 4's only to get another phone and have the same problem. This seems to be an issue which effects most if not all iPhone 4's. This issue also occurs with video.
Possible causes
- fluorescent lighting
- iPhone 4 defect
Potential fixes
- use incandescent lighting
- install Camera Spot Fix app
- exchange iPhone 4
- live with it
Want to know if this happens on your iPhone 4? Take a picture of something white like a piece of paper from close range (2 to 3 feet) and let me know what you see. You may be as shocked as I am.
Let me know if you have this problem and if any fixes have worked for you. Also, does it affect your day to day use?
[Thank you Peter for emailing in this bug!]

Caregiver Commentary
"What a difference Respite Care has made in our lives! Thank you, thank you, thank you!"
"I am completely astounded by the generosity of you people at Respite Care! Because of their gifts, more people in need will get help in the coming years."
"Thank you for lifting the burden, lightening the stress and offering a haven for mother."
"I will always be grateful for your loving care for both of us."
"You are caring for us caregivers as much as for the club participants."
"I can't say it often enough-many, many thanks for your loving care for my husband. His quality of life is so much better because of what you offer through this special place."
"Every once in a while, we find 'special' place-places where friendships are found-love flourishes and memories are held in heart forever more. Respite Care is one of those 'special' places."
"You are doing such a wonderful job and I know how much it is appreciated by the families of those who are fortunate enough to find themselves in your care."
"Because of your fine program, Dad got the social interaction he so enjoyed and Mom got a much needed break from the demands of caring for him."
"When people come through the door here you can see them just relax because they know that they can talk (and) someone is going to listen to them."
-Gentleman with Alzheimer's
"Your 'social club' is the best thing that's happened to us in a long time."
10 Ways to Tell Mom about "The Club"
#1 - Fun, fellowship and good food!! Highlight the social aspects and downplay the care aspects of the center. The center can be described as a social club.
#2 - Discuss the productive aspects of the activities at the center. Explain that she may be there to attend a meeting or to help others.
#3 - Describe some of the activities that might be of interest to her. Explain that this is an opportunity to rediscover old interests as well as discover new interests.
#4 - Encourage her just to try it for a week or so.
#5 - Ask her to do it for you, because you love her. She will be safe and you can go to work and not worry.
#6 - Ask her to do it for the whole family. It gives everyone a break from each other and helps the family get along better.
#7 - Talk over the health aspects that will enhance her physical and emotional wellbeing. Explain the benefits of light exercise and the emotional benefits of socializing with a supportive group of her peers.
#8 - Explain that the doctor has suggested the use of the center and ask the doctor to write an order or prescription for the program.
#9 - Explain that this is something that she must do. Do not give her a choice. If necessary, go with her the first few times so she will not feel alone or abandoned.
#10 - Don't!! If Mom is highly anxious, do not discuss the visit in advance. The orientation and explanation can take place at the center.

International Monetary Fund director Christine Lagarde withdrew Monday from a commencement address at Smith College after students and professors at the all-women's college objected to her scheduled commencement address, according to a published report.
Lagarde said in a statement quoted by the college president that "it has become evident that a number of students and faculty members would not welcome me as a commencement speaker…. to preserve the celebratory spirit of commencement day, I believe it is best to withdraw my participation," MassLive reported.
Those objecting to Lagarde said in an online petition that by "selecting Ms. Lagarde as the commencement speaker we are supporting the International Monetary Fund and thus going directly against Smith's values to stand in unity with equality for all women, regardless of race, ethnicity or class."
(Lagarde became managing director of the IMF in July 2011, after the previous director Dominique Strauss-Kahn became embroiled in a sex scandal involving a maid at a New York hotel.)
Lagarde's withdrawal follows last week's decision by former Bush Administration official Condoleezza Rice to withdraw from speaking at Rutgers University's commencement. As with Lagarde, Rice cited her wish not to distract from the celebratory nature of graduation.
Earlier this spring, students and faculty at Brandeis University forced the administration to withdraw plans to award an honorary degree to Somalia-born women's rights activist Ayaan Hirsa Ali for offending the schools "core values" because of her previous criticisms of Islam and its treatment of women.
On the plus side for women attempting to address American college students, Elin Nordegren gave a 10 minute commencement address at her graduation from Rollins College in Winter Park, Fla. The 34-year-old graduated with a 3.96 grade-point average, after working through the night-school program over nine years. Nordegren earned a bachelor's degree in psychology. She is a model and the former wife of Tiger Woods.

Workers Unearth Civil War Coffin
Posted 10 April 2005 - 03:04 AM
Construction workers in D.C. inadvertently dug up a Civil War coffin recently.
Workers stored it in a warehouse, while deciding what to do with it. Sadly, the coffin was broken into shortly after they found it.
Check it out, including the photo slide show:

If it looks a bit odd (kinda like a mummy case) it's because the coffin is made of lead!
Yep, the body was placed inside the coffin and soldered shut. Supposedly, the body in the one the Smithsonian found was remarkably well preserved . . .

Very interesting. I'd like to see the body(well, skeleton) if they ever put those pics up.

I noticed that the online article is up and running again, so I browsed the slideshow one more time. As I was reading the article it occurred to me that the construction crew's actions were rather irresponsible (and disrespectful!) I'm curious as to why the coroner or at least the police weren't notified.
I couldn't believe it when I read in the article:
"They put it in the building at the construction site for safekeeping for the night, but it was anything but safe."
"Somebody broke in and smashed the plate that covered the coffin ... I don't know, looking for money or jewelry or something like that," construction supervisor Randy Boyd said.
The casket has since been moved to an undisclosed location.
Duh! A mortuary or funeral home might have been appropriate. I'm surprised they didn't just toss the coffin in the dumpster or sell it for scrap metal

Not sure how that fits in with the topic.
Earth Spirit,
I saw that this morning and guess where I'm going at the end of the month.

Hmmm . . . would I be close if I said "the National Museum of Natural History?"
Earth Spirit, I saw that this morning and guess where I'm going at the end of the month.
Along these same lines, I also found an article on an archaeological analysis the Smithsonian did on a similar coffin excavated in Pulaski, Tennessee in 2002 during the relocation of a family cemetery. It's pretty interesting stuff if you're a student of archeology or American funerary customs.
I'd also like to apologize for the misinformation I initially passed on in the first part of this topic. The coffins--or "metallic burial cases, as they were called--were actually made of cast iron, not lead, and they were not soldered shut. The upper and lower portions were fastened together by screws passing through flanges that bordered the line of intersection. A cement of a putty-like consistency (composed of equal portions of ground white lead and dry red lead mixed with pure, boiled linseed oil) was deposited in a groove running around the flange. Lamp-black was sometimes added to the cement to darken the color. The upper shell was then pressed into the lower and screwed down by degrees until the screws were tight. The cement hardened within a few hours.
The first patent for a cast iron coffin was awarded to A.D. Fisk in 1848 The first two models that Fisk manufactured were in the shape of a sarcophagus, ornamented with faux drapery, and often displayed floral designs. Other dealers, such as W.M. Raymond and Company of New York and Chicago, and Crane, Breed and Company of Cincinnati, obtained licenses to produce the Fisk Metallic Burial Case. They began doing so in the early 1850s and subsequently introduced many modifications.
Fortunately, copies of Fisk and Crane's 1858 catalog are held by the Cincinnati Historical Society, and Cranes 1867 catalog is held by the Columbus Historical Society. Those catalogs and price lists suggest that Fisk's and Cranes Patent Metallic Burial Cases preserved the body, protected it against water, against vermin, safeguarded against contagion, and facilitated relocation of the remains.
The Fisk Model 3 was introduced in 1854 and an improved form of it was patented in March of 1858. Because the sarcophagus-shape and gaudy ornamentation of the Models 1 and 2 were repugnant to many, this new cast iron burial case was roughly torpedo-shaped (expanding to permit an increase in width from the head to the area at which the arms folded across the body and narrowing again to the feet), and featured straight, smooth sides. It was entirely devoid of the appearance of folded drapery and lacked ornamentation. A version that became popular was covered with an imitation rosewood finish that was applied to the surface like a decal or wallpaper. The Model 3 remained in production well into the post-Civil War period. It was available in 17 sizes, from 29.5 inches long by 9.5 inches at the widest point, to 80 inches long by 21 inches wide.
Additionally, the coffins were rather pricey and could only be afforded by the wealthy. In a day and age when a pine box cost $2-$3, a Fisk coffin (depending on the style) cost anywhere from $50-$170.

Ever see the Elliott Map? It shows breastworks and rifle pits, graves of Union and Confederate soldiers, "dead horses" reads and streets, relief by hachures, vegetation, drainage, houses and names of residents. I actually printed a version that had to be put together in sections and checked out how Gettysburg is today verses during the war. Its pretty interesting stuff. Does the amount of paranormal activity match the burial spots? Not really , but it does give one the idea of the amount of death and the way things were handled in the day.
The modern art of embalming was born of the Civil War and all its death and of the need to preserve bodies for interment from the inital spot of burial to the family plot .
I find the process of death and burial or disposal very interesting . It helps us to better understand the process of transition from here to where ever it is we go after we expire.
Here is the link to the Map...
Elliott Map
Edited by Rockhauler2k1, 07 August 2005 - 11:38 AM.
Posted 09 August 2005 - 04:57 PM
Rock, I finally got around to viewing the Elliot map (it's been crazy here at work this week) and was amazed at the detail. I'd definitely keep a copy on hand for ghost hunting at Gettysburg (one of these days!)
You're right about modern embalming techniques starting up during the Civil War. I think just every Civil War buff has seen the famous photo of Dr. Richard Burr demonstrating his new found art on one of his clients:
Burr is credited with designing the basic structure of modern embalming practice, the concept of arterial embalming, in which the corpse's veins are filled with a chemical preservative in the place of blood.
In the Civil War, the vast majority of victims had bled to death, so this was simply the path of least resistance. Burr and others like him injected the chemicals through the armpit.
Civil War-era embalmers experimented with arsenic, creosote, mercury and even turpentine as their preservatives of choice. But the next great step in the modern mortuary sciences was the invention of formaldehyde in 1868.
During my research I discovered some interesting facts as well--things like how arsenic from Civil War era cemeteries is being absorbed into the soil at such an alarming rate that it's actually creating an environmental hazard in some areas of the country by contaminating local water supplies.
Also, getting back to the Fisk Metallic Burial Cases, I discovered that an adult size case weighed nearly 300 pounds!!! After all, they were made of cast iron. But when add the weight of a 175 pound man to it, look out! Before you know it, you've got six pall bearers with hernias . . .

On Thursday, Local columnist Hugh Gilmore says he's going to repay a debt.
That debt is to Gilmore's favorite writer, Loren Eiseley, a scientist, philosopher and writer who Gilmore had the good fortune to meet and with whom he was able to develop a mentor relationship.
Eiseley's writing, Gilmore said, stopped him in his tracks and made him drop a career as a high school English teacher to pursue a Ph.D. in anthropology, Eiseley's field of expertise. After meeting Eiseley, the writer agreed to help Gilmore get in to the Ph.D. program at the university of Pennsylvania.
"He helped me when I had to go through my [anthropology] Ph.D. orals," Gilmore said in an interview last week. "He sensed when I had trouble and told some stories to give me time. I called him later that night to thank him and he said, 'If you think I've done you a favor, pass it on.' I feel like this is me passing him on, so that's the purpose of this."
Gilmore will lead a tribute to Eiseley on Thursday. Nov. 15 at 7 p.m. In the Chestnut Hill Hotel's Bombay Room, 8229 Germantown Ave. The tribute will include stories about Eiseley and readings from his work. Gilmore said he's spoken to a number of Chestnut Hillers who plan on participating in the tribute. Many people, Gilmore learned, have a a deep connection to Eiseley.
"Instead of one event and one speaker, we'll have a community event," he said. "I imagine it almost like a Quaker meeting with everyone having something to say."
When Gilmore first encountered Eiseley, it was in 1967. He was an English teacher at Abington High School. At the time, Eiseley was as famous a writer and essayist as one could be. He was well-known and well-regarded.
"I read an article in Esquire magazine," he said. "It called Eiseley the best prose writer in America. I thought, 'That's ridiculous. How can a scientist be better writer than John Updike or Norman Mailer?' I found [Eiseley's book] 'The Immense Journey' and I can say I'm one of the few lucky people on this earth who could read a book and have it stop me in my tracks and completely turn me around. It was a whole body of knowledge I didn't know. I was, until then, myopic."
Through chance and the help of one of his students who contacted Eiseley, Gilmore wrote his hero and the man agreed to come to Gilmore's class. After that, Eiseley became instrumental in changing Gilmore's life.
"I drove him home," Gilmore remembered, "and he turned to me and said 'What are you doing with your life?' He saw something in me I didn't see in myself. I was about 30. I said, 'I don't know.' He said, 'You're not getting any younger. If you ever want to make a change, let me know.'
"I made a lunch with him two months later and told him I wanted to go into anthropology. I had never taken an anthropology class.
Eiseley helped Gilmore get in and changed his life. Not only had Gilmore found a new passion and a new path, his marriage was also stressed, he said, to the point of breaking. He lived in the Carribean and in Kenya. He eventually returned to Philadelphia.
Gilmore never pursued a career in anthropology. In fact, he said, it wasn't that important to him. It was always more about a way of thinking – of looking at the world and life with fresh eyes. Eiseley has helped Gilmore do that, even now.
"Even though I'm not a kid anymore, I'm still trying to refine my thoughts and get a take on life", he said. "I think Lauren Eiseley is the single wisest writer I've ever encountered, at least in the way that makes sense to me."
For Gilmore, Eiseley's ability to tell stories and to think penetratingly about the place of human beings in the universe is remarkable and without peer.
"He's an evolutionist – a paleontologist," Gilmore said. "He came out of anthropology, a field that ultimately comes back to human nature. He has a very unique ability to look at himself, to look at his hand as he's tapping away at a fossil. He stops. It's funny, this hand didn't have to be made out of calcium, he thinks. But it's made out of calcium because we came from the sea.
"I like that he's philosophical and that his philosophy is based on biological science."
So what does Gilmore hope to accomplish Thursday night?
"As a person concerned with books and reading but not just as a form of entertainment or a means of being au courant, I'm deeply and genuinely interested in literature and what it can do for people," he said. " I'm interested in writers that give you thoughts that help guide your star. … Eiseley has turned out to be more obscure now than I would have though. In a way, I'm hoping to pass him on to others."
Thursday's tribute will be the last in a year-long series sponsored by the Chestnut Hill Book Festival Committee. Gilmore isn't sure who will come, but invites anyone interested in Eiseley not only to attend, but to share their experience with Eiseley with the audience. Gilmore can be contacted at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Remember back when I first started the nursery curtains only to discover a little snag in the plan when the fabric arrived? The back-up fabric for the curtains worked out beautifully, but I was left with five yards of a great fabric that I needed to find a project for.
Enter basket liners part 1. Our changing table (which received this makeover) holds four baskets from Amazon that fit it perfectly – but the white liners were lacking for looks.
When my aunt (an excellent seamstress whose skills I envy) asked if she could sew something for Olivia's nursery, I asked her opinion on the liners and a couple of other projects (soon to come).
Liv loved the idea!
And the baskets look amazing, just what the space needed!
To sew liners for your own baskets, create a pattern by using a seam ripper to take apart the current liners. If your baskets are empty, use the measurements of the width, depth and height of each edge and the base of the basket to create a pattern out of paper (don't forget to take into account the hem and overhang on the outside of the basket). Use the paper to cut your fabric pieces and sew each edge. A little elastic in the outside hems around the corners will help keep the basket liners in place!
Easy! A quick makeover that changes the entire look of the baskets.
That's our hanging diaper pail from our cloth diapering adventure hanging on the right side of the table next to the hanging hamper that we love. Dirty cloth diapers go into the wet pail (which keeps all smells out) and dirty clothes are tossed right into a washable hamper.
Liv digs it.
Thanks great auntie Laurie!

I just got into kiteboarding three months ago after working my entire summer vacation 6 days a week 8 hours a day to pay for all the gear. I love kiting and at this point cain't get enough. I've got riding upwind dialed in, have good kite control and am starting to jump. I have have fairly good board skills on the snow and can s-turn down a black diamond. I own a Cabrinha Crossbow and a waist harness. Oh, and Im only 15 so transportation will be a bit of a problem.
So I was wondering if I cant get wind down here why not try tahoe?
I just have a few questions.
Where should I start (heard hope valley is good)?
When will there be snow(If not already)?
What kind of wind should I expect?
Is a Crossbow good for snow?
Is there anything that I can do to prepare?
Am I good enough to ride on snow?
Has anyone seen just friends, because that is an awsome movie,
and any other essential tips I would greatly apreciate.

After winning game one of the tournament 6-0 against No. 5 seed ETSU earlier in the day, the Lady Bisons, the No. 2 seed, fell 2-0 in the second game to No. 3 seeded Mercer Thursday night at Patricia Wilson Field here on the Stetson campus.
The Lady Bisons will play Stetson, 23-30, the tournament host and No. 6 seed, Friday at 2:30 p.m.
"It was a frustrating loss for sure," said Lady Bisons coach Kristin Peck. "I think we were on our heels a little bit offensively for some reason in this game. We had two tight games with Mercer this season. We knew going into it that it was going to be that way again.
"We have to get our attack mentality back. Some people had it and some people didn't in the game. And that affected us. They had a few breaks fall their way and we missed a couple of opportunities."
Peck chose to return freshman right-hander Whitney Kiihnl to the mound for the second game. Kiihnl, 17-9, held ETSU to two hits in the first game. She came back strong in game two, allowing only three hits. She walked three batters and struck out six.
Kiihnl kept Mercer hitless until the top of the fifth inning. Casey Neilson lined a shot to left field that brought in Anna Johnson from third base. Johnson was a pinch runner for Emi Sherrill who walked to open the inning.
Amanda Santa Maria drove in Jena Ellis, who reached base on a single to Kiihnl, with a sacrifice fly to center.
Mercer left-hander Lacey Richardson held the Lady Bisons to one hit, a single by center fielder Lauren Dortwegt. Richardson struck out one batter and walked four.
"She mixes her pitches well and keeps you guessing," said Peck. "We didn't take care of a couple of little things on our end. We knew it was going to be a pitchers' duel and it was.
When the other team makes four errors you have to turn that into something. We really didn't take advantage of that."
The Lady Bisons are 38-13. Mercer, 39-17, remains in the winner's bracket.
"Friday is another day," said Peck. "It is still a plus for our program. We can't let one loss in a tight game affect us. We have to forget and let that one drift away and focus on a new opponent."

In the last months I spent a lot of efforts in Thug development. During these months a few interesting features and improvements were introduced but right now I want to spend some time for taking a look at the new plugin framework introduced in the version 0.3.0. If you ever thought about extending Thug with additional features but didn't know how to do it you should really keep on reading. Let's start by taking a look a the code.
Taking a look at src/thug.py we can now read these lines of code
Please note that every operation done by Thug is started by line 218 but now you can see that two hooks exist in order to execute plugins in a pre and post-analysis stage. Let's keep exploring the source code and let's take a look at src/Plugins/ThugPlugins.py
and src/Plugins/plugins.conf
The configuration file plugins.conf defines which plugins are to be loaded in pre and post-analysis stage (you can specify many plugins by simply comma separating them). The plugins should contain a class named Handler which should be conform to this interface
If the interface is correctly implemented the `run' method is called with two parameters: the Thug class main instance and the Thug root logger. Let's see a really simple example of plugin
This plugin just logs the parameters but you can do whatever you want. Do you want to pre-check if the URL domain is within a blacklist? Just do it with a pre-analysis plugin. Do you want to extract and/or correlate information from the MAEC log files? Just do it with a post-analysis plugin. Simply staten… have fun!

Fennim was a member of the "Think Tank" and its only humanoid member besides Kurros. Fennim's speech patterns were drastically different from most humanoids, therefore, it is inadequate for the universal translator to speak "our language."
Some of his duties were to greet those interested in seeking help from the "Think Tank" and introduce them to Kurros. He assisted Kurros in the plot to retrieve Seven of Nine and enlist her in the "Think Tank".
When the USS Voyager sent a carrier wave to disrupt the telepathic communication of the "Think Tank", Fennim was unable to communicate with Kurros. (VOY: "Think Tank")
Fennim was played by actor Steven Dennis who received no credit for this appearance.
He filmed his scenes on Thursday 14 January 1999 and Friday 15 January 1999 on Paramount Stage 9.
The costume worn by him was sold off in week 25 of the It's A Wrap! sale and auction for US$382.77. [1] The costume consists of a large number of ornaments placed in square sections. One of the sections contains a rear admiral's triangular braid insignia from the early seasons of Star Trek: The Next Generation.

District of Columbia Clinical Psychology Graduate Programs
Several clinical psychology graduate schools offer graduate certificates, masters and doctorate clinical psychology degree programs in a residential format where students take class on college campus. One of the appealing things about working towards your graduate degree on campus is the variety of programs and psychology graduate schools to choose from.
Clinical Psychology Graduate Schools
Some clinical psychology programs may lead to MFT or LPCC licensure, while others may be a step towards practice as a licensed clinical psychologist. Didn't know there were so many options? Read on to learn more about locating schools for clinical psychology and determining which type of degree might align with your vocational and personal ambitions.
Types of Clinical Psychology Graduate Schools
While a Bachelor's in Psychology may set your education in motion, a graduate clinical psychology degree can help shape career outcomes depending on the type of program you choose. You can certainly study psychology because you are drawn to personality theory and yet not end up as a licensed psychologist, which is why you want to clearly define your ideal career so you can support your decision with appropriate academics.
What is Clinical Psychology?
"Clinical psychology is the psychological specialty that provides continuing and comprehensive mental and behavioral health care for individuals and families; consultation to agencies and communities; training, education and supervision; and research-based practice".[i]
Masters in Clinical Psychology Campus Programs
Masters in clinical psychology degree programs typically admit students who have earned a 4-year Bachelor of Psychology, or have an undergraduate major in another related field but have made up some of the required courses. While earning your degree could take around 1 to 2 years, this may vary between school and other requirements of your program such as a supervised practicum, capstone project od thesis. Some of the different campus-based master's degrees in clinical psychology might include:
- Master of Arts (MA) in Clinical Psychology
- Master of Science (MS) in Clinical Psychology –thesis or non-thesis options
- Master of Arts (MA) in Clinical Psychology – Marriage and family therapy or counseling emphasis
Sometimes the same psychology school offers several options within the same program so students can choose between a program that could lead to post degree supervised work and a counseling license[ii] (a terminal degree) or working on a thesis and subsequent doctoral studies.
DID YOU KNOW? Requirements for license to practice in psychology are not standardized across states; some will license individuals with master's degrees, but the majority requires a doctoral degree[iii].
Doctorate in Clinical Psychology Campus Programs
Some doctoral clinical psychology programs require applicants to have a master's in psychology although it is not uncommon for student's with a bachelor's degree to enter a doctoral degree program. Earning a doctorate could take at least 5 to7 years after your undergraduate years and could involve coursework, passing a comprehensive exam, writing and defending a dissertation. Those who seek to practice as a professional clinical psychologist must also completer a 1-year internship in their specialty area. Some of the different campus-based doctorate degrees in clinical psychology could include:
- Doctor of Psychology (PsyD) in Clinical Psychology – practice oriented
- Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Clinical Psychology – research oriented
How to Choose a Campus-Based Clinical Psychology Degree Program
The factors you use to determine which psychology graduate schools to apply to are personal and likely practical too. Here are a few general things you might look for:
The variety of campus-based clinical psychology degree programs can be important for the student who is looking towards studying a particular area within clinical psychology (e.g. health psychology, neuropsychology). If you know what you want to learn, you can then look for a graduate school that offers this type of training.
Hands-on Learning
In person learning is often based on demonstration, and dynamic classroom lectures where participation could be encouraged. You may also study or research a topic (e.g. biofeedback) where you receive hands-on training in the schools' facilities (clinic, laboratories).
Some clinical psychology schools offer local internship placement.
Some psychology schools may have research grants and faculty who has published the type of articles that spark your interest and that you would like to have mentor you. On the other side of the coin, a potential faculty member could read about your research aspirations and consider your application.
The Campus as a Community
Earning a graduate degree on campus can provide a supportive community of like-minded students, the opportunity to meet students from other disciplines as you head of to the cafeteria or library. Meeting and interacting with others, participating in college activities and getting to know your professors may set a campus program apart from an online one.
Are you open to relocation? Do you prefer a local campus? Are you interested in studying clinical psychology abroad? Some campuses are located in the heart of a vibrating metropolis while others may be situated on a beautiful lakefront. Find clinical psychology degree programs and graduate schools by location. Use the city, state or country tabs to see what is available.
Accreditation indicates that an institution or program meets quality standards that have been set forth by an outside accrediting agency and that it is committed to upholding and improving the quality of education provided. The two types of accreditation are institutional and specialized programmatic. Institutional accreditation is provided by regional and national associations, while the American Psychological Association is a specialized accreditor; you can look for APA-accredited doctoral programs however they do not accredit master's programs[iv].
Take the Next Step: Reviewing Clinical Psychology Graduate Schools
Finding a university or psychology school where you can take your education in clinical psychology to its next step can be an exciting adventure of visiting campuses, meeting alumni and potential professors or advisors, checking out the neighborhood surrounding a prospective school or planning your commute route from home. Take some of the guesswork out of your process by reviewing sponsored listings for clinical psychology degree programs on our site. You might find options such as campus Master of Clinical Psychology; Master of Science in Clinical Psychology; PsyD Applied Clinical Psychology; PhD in Clinical Psychology; Master of Arts in Clinical; Mental Health Counseling. Request info directly off our site to find out about the interesting features of each program and how you can proceed with your application.

AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am- Poor TV coverageer ret February 11 2012
Charlie Wi leads the second round of the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, after a round of -3 under par at Pebble beach, and a total of -12 for the tournament. He said of his round today; "I thought Pebble played really difficult today. The greens were very firm, and the guys that shot 8 or 9-under out there, I was very surprised how well they played, because the greens were so firm. Some of the pins were really tricky. I said, gosh, how did they shoot 9-under out there? And for me to shoot 3-under today, I was very pleased. I took an approach today saying this is just a new day, and whatever happened yesterday I was going to put it behind me and just start fresh." The biggest story of the day revolved around the TV coverage from Golf Channel, the comments go like this; Pebble Beach Pro-Am comes along and it is nearly unwatchable. It is absolutely ridiculous that live coverage is only provided at Pebble Beach Golf Links. In years past I could understand not providing live coverage at Spyglass Hill and Monterey Peninsula. No coverage from Spyglass Hill and Monterey Peninsula does not make sense to the viewing public, quite a number of whom have tuned in to see how Bill Murray and D.A Points are doing in their defense of their title. Given the fact that Tiger Woods is undoubtedly the biggest draw in golf, yet the Golf Channel does not send a live crew to cover his round at Spyglass Hill. By contrast the coverage shown at the Alfred Dunhill Links Pro-Am, a similar tournament in structure to Pebble Beach. St. Andrews, Carnoustie and Kingsbarn each host a round, a cut is made after three rounds and the final round takes place at St. Andrews. Live coverage was provided at all three courses. Spyglass Hill had Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson for Round One. It makes no sense that they would be ignored for Dustin Johnson and Vijay Singh playing at Pebble Beach. The people in charge of coverage for the Golf Channel and CBS should be shown a tape of the Dunhill Links coverage. It is clear that they have no clue on how to cover a pro-am tournament on three courses. No live coverage of Tiger and Tony Romo Jeff Gross/Getty Images

German Telecoms See Marketing Opportunity in NSA Fears
Oct 22, 2013 9:50 AM PT
German telecommunications companies are marketing email services as being National Security Agency-proof, a potentially fruitful ploy in a country where a past marred by sinister data collection has left people yearning for privacy.
Deutsche Telekom recently announced plans for a national internal network. The plan calls for emails to be housed entirely on domestic servers that are -- as far as people can tell -- immune to NSA snooping.
In August, a handful of companies, including Deutsche Telekom, GMX and web.de, launched a marketing campaign called "Email Made in Germany."

France Ticked About NSA Surveillance
France's government expressed anger Monday over revelations that the U.S. carried out extensive eavesdropping in France.
France summoned the U.S. ambassador, Charles Rivkin, after an article in Le Monde -- the top newspaper there -- reported that the NSA scoured 70 million digital communications inside France during the month from Dec. 10, 2012, to Jan. 8, 2013. That revelation came from documents leaked by Edward Snowden; the article was written by Glenn Greenwald, the Guardian journalist who first broke the NSA story.
French President Francois Hollande reportedly had a phone chat with President Obama on Monday.
France, however, was tempered in its response. There was little fiery rhetoric -- unlike in Brazil, where the president lambasted U.S. surveillance -- as officials simply said that such surveillance was "totally unacceptable." The French Interior Minister said in a radio address that the news was "shocking" and would "require explanation."

Judge: Yahoo Must Use Bing in Taiwan, Hong Kong
A U.S. District judge ruled Monday that Yahoo must use Microsoft's Bing search technology in Taiwan and Hong Kong.
In 2010, Yahoo and Microsoft inked a 10-year deal called "Search Alliance." As part of the partnership, Yahoo was supposed to start using Bing in Taiwan and Hong Kong this month. It asked a judge to delay the launch until 2014, however, because, according to court filings, Yahoo wanted to see if Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer's successor was as committed to the deal as Ballmer, who announced in August that he would be stepping down.
That wait-and-see approach was deemed a breach of the contract.

Chinese Media Twitter Account Hacked
CCTV News, China's state-run broadcaster, said one of its Twitter accounts was hacked after a tweet claimed that the country's president had called for a probe into corruption allegations.
The tweets went out in English, which surely limited their impact in China -- to say nothing of the fact that Twitter is blocked there anyway.
[Source: GreatFire.org via Reuters]
China Targets Samsung
Having already taken a bite out of Apple, Chinese media set its sights on Samsung, at least for a night.
State-run CCTV aired a 30-minute broadcast claiming that Samsung's Galaxy S and Galaxy Note models have serious flaws that cause the devices to lose power and require the batteries to be removed and reinserted before being turned back on. This, the special said, could cause irreparable damage -- and even if it is reparable, those fixes cost between US$130 and $330.
Apple was forced to issue an apology to consumers in China earlier this year after state-run media there blitzed the company with similar "this company is garbage" reporting. That said, it is far too early to say that the Samsung report is anything but a one-off special.

- German Grand Prix - FP1
Hamilton sets pace as Mercedes dominatesChris Medland at the Nurburgring July 5, 2013
- Race:
- German Grand Prix
- Drivers:
- Lewis Hamilton
- |
- Nico Rosberg
- |
- Mark Webber
Lewis Hamilton set the pace during FP1 for the German Grand Prix as Mercedes dominated the opening Friday session.
Hamilton and team-mate Nico Rosberg set an impressive pace from the start of the session and were the best part of a second clear of the rest of the field throughout. Mark Webber was third quickest ahead of Adrian Sutil, while Sebastian Vettel was only eighth and Fernando Alonso missed out on the session with an electrical problem.
There was no sign of any tyre issues during the session, with the FIA having given the teams a set of conditions they must adhere to when using the tyres following the Grand Prix Drivers' Association's threat to boycott the grand prix if there is a repeat of the problems seen at Silverstone.
Alonso's session was hit by reliability issues as his Ferrari came to a halt after just a handful of corners on his installation lap. Having recovered the car back to the garage and verified the stoppage was due to an electrical problem, Ferrari sent Alonso back out with 40 minutes of the session to run but he suffered the same issue and had to limp back to the pits as his session ended after less than two complete laps.
While Rosberg was running a Lotus-style drag reduction device (DRD) on his Mercedes, Kimi Raikkonen was fifth quickest but didn't run the DRD he had raced at Silverstone. Instead it was Romain Grosjean who continued to test the device for Lotus.
Behind the two Mercedes it was a close field as Webber in third to Paul di Resta in 11th place was covered by just 0.7s, with both McLaren's featuring inside the top ten.
Marussia gave Rodolfo Gonzalez a run in FP1 in place of Jules Bianchi but he ended the session in 21st place, 1.5s slower than Max Chilton in the other Marussia.

EcommerceBytes 2012 Sellers Choice Awards
Ina Steiner of EcommerceBytes recently posted their 2012 Sellers Choice Awards. This annual survey, now in its fourth year, has become an increasingly relied-upon tool to help sellers compare the strengths and weaknesses of the top online marketplaces. We would like to thank everyone at Bonanza who took part in the survey -- for the second year in a row, Bonanza was the third most widely used marketplace for the survey respondents -- Bonanza trailed only eBay and Craigslist. I think this speaks to the power of what our community has created by making newcomers feel welcome, while encouraging your friends to dip their toe in and become our next newcomers.
I've always liked this Auction...er...EcommerceBytes survey for a couple reasons. The top reason is that I am a self-avowed "data lover," and any time that someone can put hard numbers behind a squishy subject, my inner scientist does a series of triumphant fist pumps.
The second reason I appreciate the survey is that it gives new marketplaces a chance to get their due (usually for being more customer-centric), while more mature marketplaces can flex their strengths (more traffic, profitability, advertising). Sellers can then weigh the pros and cons relative to their preferences, and make a good decision on which marketplace(s) fit them best. Brand new marketplaces like Addoway and Yardsellr performed very well for their young age. Neither of those a surprise, given the hard work that both teams have poured into their product. eBay and Amazon performed far better than they had in years' past, with Amazon actually scoring an overall first place this year (quite deservedly, given their dominance in commodity categories). Bonanza? Well, that deserves a new paragraph.
The third reason that I appreciate this survey is that it gives us an invaluable yardstick to see what we're doing well and what we need to work on. You can see a full summary of the results by clicking on the link to read them. The key takeaways from our standpoint:
- Being voted the Most Usable marketplace tells me that we should continue to aggressively push the envelope in creating the most feature-rich, yet simple, tools possible. This is an opportunity for us to differentiate ourselves as a market leader, and we plan to continue working with our community to guide us toward building "their perfect marketplace." Thus far, we have only scratched the surface of what we could achieve in this vein. Today, we have perhaps more tools than any other marketplace, but the tools are somewhat fragmented, and some aren't well documented for new users. If we're going to expand our lead as the Most Usable, we need to continue to pay attention to the details.
- Being voted the Second Most Recommended marketplace, after Amazon, is an enormous compliment to our team, to our community, and to the positive conversation between our team and community. We know that Bonanza will never be perfect for everyone, but having you endorse Bonanza to your friends, your customers on other marketplaces, and to the media -- all of that is what will speed Bonanza toward being the most usable and the most profitable.
- Being mentioned alongside names like Craigslist and Etsy in terms of profitability is good, but we need to be great here. We have already seen some results from our first round of Adwords advertising over the holidays, and given the revenue our search ads continue to drive, we are eying many ideas for our subsequent rounds of advertising this year. We know that it is key to our sellers, and as a marketplace that is seeking to be a market leader, it's important to us too.
Of course, these were just three among many lessons for us (and others) to take from the survey. We really appreciate Ina's hard work to create and maintain this survey (no small task with 7000 respondents!), which seems to be growing exponentially in participation each year.
What we're up to
Much! Our next two "major" initiatives are both seller-centric improvements, one a tool to help maximize picture quality, the other a pass at improving the aforementioned fragmentation of our many seller features. We want to make it easier for sellers to discover the wealth of options available to them, in as simple/consistent a way as possible
We are definitely itching to get started on our mobile app, given the explosion in mobile use recently. With any luck we could be mobile by June, while still having time to act on our usual assortment of community requests.
That's the latest and greatest. Though you may not have rated us as the most communicative marketplace, we do hope that you know that you're our real Valentine, loyal reader.
