She was later appointed as the first Assistant to the City Manager where for nearly four years her renowned skills in facilitation, diplomacy, and civic engagement served the community. Corinne's devotion to creating great places and programs as a means of ensuring a better quality of life for residents brought her back to the Parks, Recreation and Community Services Department where she served as Superintendent, and then for an extraordinary ten years as Director.

Cancellation Policy
We value you and your time so your appointments are reserved for you and you only. We totally understand that things happen and sometimes you may need to reschedule your appointment. The only thing we ask is that you let us know at least 24 hours prior to your appointment so that we can ensure that time can be offered to other clients that need to be seen that week.
To keep it super simple and easy, we will send you an email reminder 48 hours prior to your appointment. Be sure to respond within 24 hours of receiving that reminder if you need to cancel or reschedule because if it is less than 24 hours notice, we will charge the full session fee.
We do not accept insurance.
Here are the reasons why:
We are dedicated to ensuring privacy and flexibility and we can get started quickly without waiting for authorization from your insurance company.
Therapy can end when it feels right – not because additional sessions have not been authorized.
Insurance companies have access to your diagnosis and can request additional records in order to justify treatment which means your confidentiality is significantly reduced.
We are out-of-network providers.
We do, however, work with insurance companies out-of-network. Out-of-network services may be covered in full or in part by your health insurance or employee benefit plan. We recommend checking your coverage by asking the following questions of your insurance carrier:
Do I have out-of-network mental health benefits?
What is my deductible and has it been satisfied?
How many sessions per calendar year does my plan cover?
How much does my plan cover for an out-of-network provider?
What is the coverage amount per therapy session?
Please note that only licensed providers can provider out-of-network receipts. Please confirm with your clinician if you need an out-of-network receipt.

In the midst of tweets surrounding Bachelor Monday, a quite unexpected (and nostalgic) hashtag swept Twitter last night. Yep, that's right. #JonasBrothers. And as the true Jonas Brothers fans we are, our hearts just about dropped into our stomachs in hopes of a reunion – but then, we realized this rumor needed some clarifying.
It all started when the band's former keyboard player Ryan Liestman posted a photo alongside Nick, Joe and Kevin (and Ryan's wife, of course) with the caption "Family reunion." And what rose even further speculation was the fact that he posted with the other former Jonas Brothers backup musicians Greg Garbowsky and John Taylor the day before. While we love seeing these guys all together, they actually hang out a lot. Like – a lot, a lot. Just scroll through any one of their Instagrams, and you'll see.
While people are legitimately losing their freaking minds over the Jonas Brothers "reactivating" their account, there are tons of true Jo Bros stans quietly rolling their eyes at the rumors. So let's say it louder for those in the back… THE JONAS BROTHERS NEVER DEACTIVATED THEIR INSTAGRAM ACCOUNT.
PSA the jonas brothers instagram was never deactivated lol

Jonas Brothers DID NOT reactivate their Instagram account ‼‼‼
They never deactivated it and it's been there since they broke up‼
— 🎃 (@marily2500) January 16, 2018
Soon after the photos of the band's recent hangouts surfaced, people must have stumbled upon the Jonas Brother's official Instagram account, proclaiming that it has been reactivated. However, their page has been alive and well since the band broke up in 2013. They just haven't posted since their breakup.
How do we know? Well, we here at J-14 wrote a story about their Instagram account just this past August in celebration of Jonas Brothers Week to honor the 10-year anniversary of the boys' breakout self-titled album. We uncovered some of the best comments that are still being left on their Instagram photos years later.
Another reason this fake rumor spread like wildfire is because their boy John just started following and liking their already-active (yet forgotten) account. Hey, maybe he was just feeling nostalgic.
To end all the rumors, The Jonas Brothers DID NOT reactivate their IG account like y'all fake asses say they did.
John just started to follow the Jonas Brothers on IG and liked some photos from it. The Jonas Brothers IG acc has always been there yall just too blind to see. pic.twitter.com/Ckr3VvNzsU

The fact that the Jo Bros were trending was even a surprise to the boys themselves. Kevin shared his reaction live on air with radio host Elvis Duran. From Kev's point of view, he just went on a ski trip with his bros, and the next thing he knew everyone was tweeting about a comeback. It sounds to us like he was just v caught off guard about all of this.
"I don't know what you're talking about," said Kevin. "I don't even know where to start."
Nick reacted to the news via Instagram Stories, and all he had to say was "Whoa." Come on Nick, give us a little more than that!
All together now… The. Account. Was. Never. Deactivated. As for a reunion? The verdict is still out on that one.
Join the J-14+ Facebook group to continue the conversation and access exclusive content. It's a safe space to obsess over celebs the same way you did when you were 14.

One of the reasons I enjoy "Lost" so much is because the story is so unpredictable. I find with most TV shows a reasonably intelligent viewer can usually figure out where things are going. This is why most of those shows don't last. People want something different, something unexpected, something that will keep them guessing, and "Lost" has been delivering on that since the beginning.
There is no better example of this than the latest episode, "Dr. Linus," in which we see two very different versions of Benjamin Linus. In one timeline he is the manipulative leader of the Others, recently ousted and sent into exile, only to come back to the island and become manipulated himself into killing Jacob. In the flash-sideways timeline, Ben is a teacher of European history at a high school where one of his students is none other than Alex Rousseau, the girl he stole as a baby and raised as his own daughter in the original timeline.
The dynamite standoff between Jack and Richard confirmed something long theorized by fans, namely that Richard was on the Black Rock, probably as a slave (the Man in Black mentioned Richard being in chains). It could be said that this scene showed Jack embracing his new "man of faith" role, but to me it seemed more like he simply didn't care whether he lived or died.
Some viewers more observant than me have pointed out some of the subtler crossovers between the original timeline and the flash-sideways timeline. Such as Lesley Artz, the science teacher, complaining about a formaldehyde stain on his shirt, and Hurley mentioning the Artz stain on his own, a reference to that character's death by unstable dynamite way back in Season 1. The crossover I especially liked was Ben opening a can of oxygen for his ailing father in the flash-sideways as a parallel to Ben's flashback in Season 3 where he opened a canister of poisonous gas to kill his father.
I have to admit, I was fully expecting the "sideways" Ben to use his newly-found manipulative abilities and take the principal's job, damning Alex in favour of his own ambitions, in much the same way he did in the original timeline, which resulted in her death. Likewise, I was expecting the Ben Linus we all know and love to shoot Ilana. At this late point in the game, I figured he'd come too far for any possibility of redemption, and that he'd still be willing to do anything he can to regain control of the island.
Surprisingly, neither of these things happened, and the result was, in my opinion, the best episode of the season so far. Sideways Ben doesn't take the principal's job, Alex gets her letter of recommendation, and the history club is back on! All is right with the world. The sideways world, anyway. In the original timeline, Ben doesn't shoot Ilana, he pleads his case to her, and Ilana seems to forgive him, in her own way. Maybe she knows something about how Jacob works, and that his lessons aren't always easy ones. Ben seems to be on the road to some sort of redemption, although I don't know if the Man in Black is going to take kindly to his joining up with the Losties. Then again, in another episode or two, he could be swapping sides once more. After all, this is Ben we're talking about.

Nausea and vomiting can be brought about by many different things. For instance, they can strike if you are experiencing an anxiety or a panic attack, having a bout of motion sickness, or in the early stages of being in the family way. Ingesting food that's spoiled or contaminated by bacteria can definitely make them happen, too. There are also various medical conditions that count nausea and vomiting as some of their common signs and symptoms.
However, there is a condition called cyclic vomiting syndrome that is characterized by episodes of nausea and vomiting. You may think that many other things can cause nausea and vomiting, but wait until you learn the fact that cyclic vomiting is syndrome is something that strikes at the same time every single day, and every episode has the same duration.
Weird, isn't it? Cyclic vomiting syndrome is so weird that doctors do not really know what causes it exactly, although there are some known triggers. Because vomiting frequently can come with its set of health complications, it's very important to pin down the root cause and also treat it effectively. If the underlying cause is unidentifiable, properly managing the different symptoms then becomes the goal. Keep on reading in order to come across some of the most essential things you need to know about cyclic vomiting syndrome.
According to health experts, the symptoms of cyclic vomiting syndrome usually begin in the morning. So in other words, it's just like morning sickness in which a pregnant woman, usually during the early stages of her pregnancy, experiences nausea and vomiting at the start of her day. The only problem is cyclic vomiting syndrome is something that can be experienced by those who are not pregnant, as well as men and children on which cyclic vomiting syndrome is common.
Cyclic vomiting syndrome is characterized by severe bouts of nausea and vomiting that can strike several times an hour. Such can keep on happening for the next few hours or even days. However, cyclic vomiting syndrome rarely lasts for over one week. In between episodes of intense nausea and vomiting are instances in which the individual feels totally fine.
Other than nausea and vomiting, it's not unlikely for a person who is having an episode of cyclic vomiting syndrome to also experience unfavorable symptoms such as dizziness, headache, abdominal pain, diarrhea and fever. Sensitivity to light is also a symptom, especially if cyclic vomiting syndrome can be linked to migraine headaches, which is the case in many who suffers from such.
It's important to deal with cyclic vomiting syndrome not only because it can interfere with the daily living of someone who is being bugged by it, but also due to the fact that it can cause various complications. Vomiting a lot can lead to dehydration. It's also possible for the esophagus to become irritated and end up bleeding as a result of frequent vomiting. Tooth erosion and oral sores are other known complications of cyclic vomiting syndrome.
Unfortunately, there is no known treatment available for cyclic vomiting syndrome. There are, however, medications that may help in considerably reducing the intensity of episodes as well as frequency of the attacks. Some of the medications that may be prescribed for managing cyclic vomiting syndrome are antacids, anti-nausea drugs and anti-depressants.
Identifying the triggers is an important step that a person who is suffering from cyclic vomiting syndrome needs to take, too. There are many different things that can be blamed for bouts of cyclic vomiting syndrome. Some of them include overeating, consumption of caffeinated beverages, anxiety or panic attacks, exposure to high temperatures, excessive exercise, and too much stress.

Matt Barkley and Buffalo Bills are embarrassing the New York Jets
The Matt Barkley era began with a bomb.
On his first play as a Buffalo Bill after being signed last week, Barkley completed a 47-yard pass to Robert Foster, the rookie who was called up from the practice squad from Alabama. LeSean McCoy scored on the very next play with a 28-yard run, his longest run of the season. That run gave McCoy more yards than his previous three games combined (24).
Later in the quarter the ball continued to bounce Buffalo's way. Zay Jones caught a pass from Barkley and fumbled at the 1-yard line but Jason Croom fell on the ball in the end zone for a TD and a 14-0 Bills lead.
Barkley's first touchdown with Buffalo came on a 7-yard to offensive tackle Dion Dawkins, who reported as eligible.
McCoy added his second rushing TD of the game and the Bills led 31-0 at halftime.
Barkley threw for 103 yards in the first quarter. Nathan Peterman has failed to pass for 100 yards in eight of his nine career games with the Bills.
The Bills had 313 yards of offense in the first half, the most they totaled in a first half since Doug Flutie led Buffalo to 332 yards in the 2000 season finale against the Seattle Seahawks.

April 2016 Alumni Spotlight
April Alumni Spotlight with Renee Gasper, Executive MPA '12
Graduate school isn't an obvious choice for every working professional. But there are those who come to realize that to make an impact (even if just in their own lives), a graduate degree can help achieve beyond what they thought possible. Renee walks us through a typical day and what it takes to support a U.S. Senator, her desire to serve as a role model to other young American Indians, why she decided to get her MPA, and more.
Can you offer a day-to-day overview of what it's like to perform your duties in support of the United States Senate?
I'm the administrative director in the personal office of Senator Tom Udall (of my home state of New Mexico) and among my duties, I oversee the administrative and operations end of the Washington office and five state offices; manage the office budget; supervise the front office staff and systems administrator; and oversee the office internship program. In the Senate, you never know what the day will be like depending on what's on the floor of the Senate, but I usually start each day reviewing the office schedule to see how busy things look for the front office staff and try to check with them throughout the day to see how busy the phones are and get a sense of the issues constituents may be calling about. In between, I might be reconciling staff travel and office billing; handling an issue or question that relates to a Rules or Ethics Committee rule or our office policy; work on coordinating logistics and planning for our annual office all-staff meeting; and/or address a security issue or question. There's really a number of things that can and do come up throughout the day.
What have you learned in this role?
In this role, one of the things I've learned from the most and appreciated is the management experience I've gained over the past several years and continue to learn from it daily. I also hope to be a supervisor that actively encourages and supports my team in gaining experience and taking advantage of the opportunities available to them in their current role so that it benefits them when the time comes for them to either return to school or move on to another position or job. I started out as an intern and staff assistant just like them and valued the encouragement I received from staff back then so I always hope the same for them.
Why did you decide to come back to school for your MPA (and subsequently, your Executive MPA) after having graduated almost a decade earlier?
Attending graduate school was a personal goal of mine so it was something I was determined to do no matter how long it may have taken me to get there. Also, as an American Indian, I know that the number of those of us who continue on to post-secondary education is lower compared to the total population so my hope was to maybe serve as a role model to young Natives and show them that this is something that they can also go on to achieve. I also think that the time I had in between undergraduate and graduate school allowed me to really think about and decide on the program and degree I was interested in pursuing. Being on the Hill, most of those I knew who left to go back to school were either going on to law school or public policy programs and I wasn't particularly interested in either. As I looked into MPA programs more and at the same time was gaining more experience in the Senate, the more certain I was that an MPA program would be the best fit for me. Now that it's all said and done, as challenging as it was to juggle work and school (and the commute), I'm incredibly grateful for the experience I had being part of Executive MPA Cohort 27 and I'm content knowing that I did this one thing for myself.
What were some of your favorite classes and most vital things you learned at Baruch College?
The courses I probably most enjoyed were 9140 Budgeting, Accounting and Financial Management; 9151 Administration of Not-For-Profit and Voluntary Agencies; 9139 Communication Strategy; and the Capstone Seminar (I had a great thesis group!). As someone who didn't have any nonprofit experience going in to the program, I was unsure of how I would be able to connect to the curriculum, but I'm glad for the opportunity I had to gain insight into nonprofits and still hope that one day I might be able to gain firsthand experience by working for one. In addition, I enjoy how I can read through a news article now and still relate it to a class I was in – it's often that I'll read about an organizational issue or just be able to identify the possibility of an underlying one and think about how it can be turned into a case study (which I also really enjoyed reading) or to a policy issue that we would have dissected in our policy analysis course. In this sense, I feel like I continue to benefit from my experience in the program on a daily basis.

"The Invisible Princess" and Pre-Raphaelite idealism
In the discussion today on The Pageant's second volume I found the image "The Invisible Princess" by Laurence Housman super intriguing. We talked about how there could be an influence of Pre-Raphaelite art in the image, which I agree with as demonstrated through the detailed attention to the natural world surrounding the figure depicted. The thin but fine lines of the leaves and flowers indicate the beauty of the outdoor space, and frame the couple with nature. This gives the implication that their love is good or natural, as it fits perfectly within a frame of nature.
This Pre-Raphaelite influence got me thinking about the idealization of the past that comes with it. Pre-Raphaelite art was already borrowing and idealizing elements from fourteenth-fifteenth century paintings for example. What is the effect of continuing to utilize artistic elements situated so far in the past? Is it blind idealization or is it because the implications are still very relevant in 1897 when this piece was published?

Barbadian beauty Rihanna is known to mix it up when it comes to fashion and music, but the pop star and makeup mogul has been relatively stable when it comes to real estate.
Ever since her move from Los Angeles to New York in 2013, she's been living it up in a penthouse duplex at 129 Lafayette St., on the border of Soho, Chinatown and Little Italy. She started out paying about $39,000/month and the rent has since climbed to near $50,000/month.
On Thursday, the four-bedroom, 3½-bathroom penthouse — where she currently lives — is slated to go back on the sales market for $16.95 million. (However, we hear, if RiRi changes her mind and chooses to stay, all bets may be off.)
Rihanna's 11th- and 12th-floor digs feature 13-foot ceilings, a woodburning fireplace and a chef's kitchen — along with plenty of entertaining space. There's also a steel-and-wood floating staircase that leads to the lower floor, which houses the bedrooms, and a glam 2,400-square-foot wraparound terrace.
The seller is celebrity fashion photographer Antoine Verglas, who bought the unit for $6.1 million in 2005; he's been trying to sell the place since 2009 through various brokers with asks as high as $18.75 million and as low as $9.65 million.
Verglas, who has photographed First Lady Melania Trump and models including Stephanie Seymour, Linda Evangelista, Naomi Campbell, Claudia Schiffer and Cindy Crawford, now lives at the border of Clinton Hill and Bed-Stuy and keeps a studio in the West Village — along with property in St. Barts, Miami and the Hamptons.
Past tenants include rock royalty Theodora and Alexandra Richards, daughters of Rolling Stones legend Keith Richards and model Patti Hansen, who sold their third-floor unit within the last year.
129 Lafayette, which formerly housed bookbinders and printing houses, was built in 1911 and converted to condos in 2004. It comes with a high-ceilinged, mahogany-and-stone lobby and a common roof deck.
The listing broker is Dana Power, of Town Residential. Both Power and Verglas declined to comment.

House Republicans, Sid Blumenthal, and the Ghosts of Clinton's Past
The Benghazi committee's deposition of the longtime Clinton family ally shows how past controversies will loom over Hillary Clinton's campaign.
House Republicans probing the 2012 Benghazi attacks are turning their attention to a figure from Hillary Clinton's past as the Democratic frontrunner tries to sell voters on her ideas about the future.
On Tuesday, the GOP-led Select Committee on Benghazi will hold a closed-door, hours-long deposition of Sidney Blumenthal that will focus on the longtime Clinton family ally's email exchanges with Clinton about Libya while she was secretary of State.
"Establishing the facts surrounding the large number of emails regarding Libya sent by Mr. Blumenthal to former Secretary Clinton is why he has been called to appear before the committee," a committee aide said.
On the eve of the deposition, the Benghazi panel's GOP Chairman Trey Gowdy said that Blumenthal had provided the committee with about 120 new pages of his emails with Clinton. The messages were not included in the Clinton-Blumenthal emails that the State Department had already provided to the committee months ago, he said.
Gowdy, in a statement, said the nearly 60 emails Blumenthal provided Friday about Libya and Benghazi would "help inform" the deposition. He said Republicans are "prepared" to release the messages shortly if Rep. Elijah Cummings, the panel's top Democrat, agrees. If not they will be released after five days have passed, Gowdy said.
A Democratic committee aide said he assumed that the new emails from Blumenthal were not provided by the State Department because the committee's request to the department was more narrowly cast.
The deposition and the intense press interest it will attract provide a reminder that past controversies surrounding Clinton will loom over her campaign. "If Barack Obama was no-drama-Obama, Bill and Hillary Clinton are all drama all the time," political analyst Tobe Berkovitz said.
He said it's a reminder of the 90s-vintage Clintons, even if Blumenthal himself is hardly a household name.
"To most voters, Sidney Blumenthal is a name from the past that they have pretty well forgotten, if they even knew it to begin with. He was part of the inside baseball, inside the Beltway players inside the [Bill] Clinton administration," said Berkovitz, a mass communications and public relations professor at Boston University.
But he said it "starts dredging up all the Clinton baggage, all the drama, all the characters."
While the deposition will be behind closed doors, it's fueling the very public collision between Republicans, who say important questions remain unanswered, and Democrats, who say the probe is a nakedly political attack against Hillary Clinton.
In a lengthy statement Monday evening, the pro-Clinton super PAC Correct The Record accused Republicans of "trolling for anything they can use to harm Hillary Clinton no matter how off-topic or outlandish."
"In this case, they have subpoenaed a cooperative witness for show—a witness who has not one thing to do with what happened in Benghazi or the government's reaction to it—because hurting Hillary Clinton's political prospects is now the all-consuming passion of House Republicans, not getting to the bottom of what happened in Benghazi—as if that was ever the real purpose of this committee to begin with," said Brad Woodhouse, a veteran Democratic operative who is the group's president.
Emails turned over to the panel early this year and made public in May show detailed messages about Libyan intelligence, military, and political issues that Blumenthal sent to Clinton, who passed a number of them along to top aides.
They're included in 850 pages of Clinton's Libya-related emails that the State Department provided the Select Committee in February and released publicly last month.
Blumenthal was employed by the Clinton Foundation and as a consultant to pro-Clinton advocacy and political groups, and he also advised companies seeking contracts with Libya's post-Gaddafi transitional government, The New York Times reported in May.
"We know Mr. Blumenthal corresponded with the former Secretary regarding matters directly related to the scope of this investigation. But we have many unanswered questions when it comes to how the information he provided was compiled and the overall role he was playing," said Rep. Susan Brooks, a GOP member of the panel who served as U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Indiana.
Blumenthal's memos to Clinton in 2011 and 2012 provided detailed assessments of the Clinton's ally's view of the complicated state of play in Libya.
For instance, a Feb. 21, 2012 memo about "Libya politics to control militias" provides detailed analysis and information about the turbulent factional landscape after the fall of the Gaddafi, and cites "sources with direct access to the Libyan National Transitional Council, as well as the highest levels of European Governments, and Western Intelligence and security services."
Shortly before the subpoena was issued last month, a GOP committee source said the panel wants to better understand Blumenthal's business arrangements and what actions State officials may have taken in response to his messages.
Gowdy, a former federal prosecutor, and other members plan to attend the deposition and ask questions, and investigative staff will too, according to the committee.
On the minority side of the panel, Cummings told The Hillthat he will be "there to listen."
It will be the year-old Benghazi panel's highest-profile moments yet, and no doubt Cummings will be listening for anything that feeds Democratic allegations that the House GOP probe of Clinton is a political witch hunt designed to wound Clinton politically.
Late last week, The Washington Post ran an op-ed by Cummings that said the panel's Democrats have "grave concerns we share over the extremely partisan and misguided direction this committee has taken."
They also unveiled a website that provides a running tally of the cost of the probe thus far, which according to Democrats is approaching $3.5 million.
Clinton, for her part, has downplayed the messages and defended her communication with Blumenthal, who advised Bill Clinton when he was president and has long been in the family's orbit.
"He has been a friend of mine for a long time. He sent me unsolicited emails, which I passed on in some instances," Hillary Clinton told reporters in Iowa on May 19.
"When you are in the public eye, when you are in an official position, I think you do have to work to make sure you are not caught in a bubble and you only hear from a certain small group of people, and I am going to keep talking to my old friends, whoever they are," Clinton said.

Consumers and businesses are now relying on VPNs to protect their privacy and increase their online anonymity. However, most VPN services are highly centralized and many lack transparency, making it difficult to know how well your data is actually protected online.
The Tachyon blockchain-based ecosystem has developed a decentralized VPN that it believes could solve many of these problems. The Tachyon VPN uses the Tachyon Node network as infrastructure and service provider and, therefore, its servers are not managed by a centralized organization. This means that attackers or even governments cannot force it to provide records on its users.
Tachyon VPN is also adding new users at a rapid rate, as the service reached 50,000 active users worldwide in March and this month is now hosting 100,000 users according to Cointelegraph. V SYSTEMS chief architect Sunny King provided more details on the company's new VPN to the media, saying:
"I am delighted that Tachyon VPN has reached 100,000 users worldwide this month and I think that would ultimately lead to a dynamic VPN services market for the world. Tachyon is designed as a VPN service market. It creates the infrastructure necessary for service providers and users to participate in a highly decentralized VPN market. "
VPN Tachyon
Tachyon VPN is based on the Tachyon protocol, which is what nodes and users on the corporate network use to communicate with each other. The protocol ensures that Internet traffic travels from place to place in a private, secure and fast manner.
The Tachyon protocol also uses a cryptocurrency called IPX Token, based on the V SYSTEMS blockchain database, for authentication, transaction settlement and community governance.
Users must have an IPX token for verification, but provider nodes can also set a price for their available bandwidth and earn tokens by participating in the open and decentralized Tachyon network.
Tachyon VPN is currently available for macOS, iOS and Android with a Windows app coming soon. There are currently 163 servers available in 16 countries and interested users can download Tacyon's decentralized VPN here.

This first case relates the experience of replacing Cisco's "back office" legacy applications with an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system. Read the case and then answer the following questions.
1) Cisco suffered from inertia when an attempt was made to engage business management in selecting software for their individual areas, and/or agreeing to participate in the ERP implementation project. List and explain reasons why management would hesitate to become engaged in the IT process/project.
2) Discuss the pros and cons of implementing "software off the shelf" or implementing software that has been changed to "mimic the current business processes." How did Cisco handle this problem?
3) Generate a list of at least five "Best Practices" that Cisco demonstrated in managing their ERP implementation. Describe each, and explain how each best practice contributed to the implementation.
4) Discuss the tradeoffs between doing extensive planning /analysis up-front and relying on "speed and action over analysis." Cisco chose the latter approach. How did they allow for the "unexpected" in their implementation strategy? Explain.
5) What is the "performance dip?" Do you agree that it is an inevitable outcome? Why or why not?
6) Do some external research on the current Oracle ERP System software and discuss the related products and new capabilities discussed in the Cisco case. Remember to cite your references.

No issue has been more central to the American women's movement than sexual difference. This book offers a unique study of the nature, origins, and consequences of sexual difference. Leading scholars in history, philosophy, law, literary theory, biology, sociology, psychology, political science, and anthropology explore the difference difference makes.
Several traditions of feminist response to difference are reflected in this volume. One approach has been to challenge the long-established tendency to mischaracterize culturally influenced gender differences as biological or psychological imperatives. Among the essays that draw on this tradition are Karl Degler's, John Dupré's, Ruth Hubbard's, and Herma Hill Kay's reviews of sociobiology; Nancy Chodorrow's challenges to conventional psychoanalytic frameworks; and Barrie Throne's discussion of sex stereotypes and situational influences. A second strand of feminist work has sought to challenge not the significance of gender differences but the importance society has attached to them. Alison Jaggar, Nel Noddings, Susan Moller Okin, and Koaren Offen review the capacities and constraints of this approach. A third strategy attempts to dislodge difference by challenging its centrality and its organizing premises, thus recasting the debate about gender relations. Essays by Bell Hooks and Julianne Malveaux on race, Jane Collier and Sylvia Yanagisako an anthropology, Kay Deaux and Brenda Major on social psychology, Catharine MacKinnon and Deborah Rhode on law, and Estell Freedman, Marilyn Frye, and Regenia Gagnier on feminist theory explore the ideological and policy implications of this perspective. With its wide range of distinguished scholarship, this important new volume deepens our perceptions of both the gendered nature of theory and theories about gender.

On July 11, 2008, China's Ministry of Finance (MOF), Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST) and State Administration of Taxation (SAT) issued the Work Guidelines on the Recognition of High- and New-Tech Enterprises (HNTE). The guidelines supplement the Administrative Measures on the Recognition of HNTEs issued on April 24, 2008, and set forth qualification requirements for auditing agencies that will provide audit reports during an enterprise's HNTE assessment.
The guidelines define several key indicators used in the HNTE assessment, including core self-owned intellectual property rights (IPR). These are defined as inventions, utility models and industrial designs that do not simply change a designs' pattern or shape, software copyrights, integrated circuit design layouts and new plant varieties. The guidelines provide specific weighted calculation methods to evaluate self-owned IPR, the ability to organize and manage R&D, the ability to convert scientific and technological achievements, and the sustainability of sales and total assets. An enterprise must score 70 out of 100 in this calculation before it may obtain HNTE status.
Under China's corporate income tax law, HNTEs are entitled to preferential income tax rates ranging from 10 to 15%.

The Revenant: A Visual Treat and a Chase for Retribution
Alejandro G Iñárritu is back after his offering Birdman. This time he takes us to the heart of the American wilderness with The Revenant. The film is epic in scale and lusciously shot, with stunning visuals and a delectable score. The film for all of its poetic beauty is essentially about a fight for survival against all physical odds and also about retribution.
Iñárritu brings us what he is known to do best: beating the audience into submission to remain engaged with his work. He did it in Babel and he did it to some success (barring the cultural references) in Birdman. But more than that, The Revenant is another beast all together.
We find ourselves with a pack of these fur traders, led by Hugh Glass (Leonardo DiCaprio) who is the only one who knows the way back to the 'civilized world' through the treacherous wilderness. This is the 19th century, the brutal winter is turning in and everyone is gasping for some sort of reprieve from the constant fighting with Aboriginal groups, who chase them for theft of fur, murder and pillage of their communities, etc., etc.
The film's Act 1 highpoint happens early, when Glass is attacked brutally by a bear, and is left pretty much half-dead. His group, led by Captain Henry (Domhnall Gleeson), decides to haul him with them for a bit, hoping to find a way out of the treacherous environment they are surrounded by. John Fitzgerald (Tom Hardy) is the black sheep and is constantly trying to convince the others of Glass' burden. His rivalry with Glass is old and is touched on earlier in the film, when Fitzgerald confronts Glass for having put everyone in danger by going back to look for a dead Aboriginal woman, who bore him a son. Finally, Henry decides that it is impossible to carry Glass for long and leaves him behind with three volunteers, who must wait for him to die and give him a proper burial. A cash reward at the end of it makes it worthwhile for them.
The main character is the wilderness, which Iñárritu and his cinematographer Emmanuel Lubezki deliciously, obsessively shoot in icy cold waters, snow-laden mountains, paths that spell death at every corner, and of course not to mention the threat of predators along the way.
Fitzgerald obviously betrays Glass and in his attempts of silencing him forever, ends up stabbing Glass' son to death. He dumps Glass in a pit, covering him with dirt, believing that he is leaving behind a dead man. The real acting brilliance in the film is Tom Hardy, who plays his evil minded, self-centered and brutally selfish character to the hilt.
The rest of the film is Glass in pursuit of Fitzgerald, to avenge the murder of his son. Through this bone-chilling visual feast, Iñárritu makes you want Glass to kill Fitzgerald in the final attempt of getting even. The audience is not disappointed as the final scene does offer the best of a violent end.
But in all this, the shadows that follow these men and the narrative are the various First Nations people, who chase the 'white man' for having stolen their daughters and women. They try to trade with a group of French mercenaries for horses, while traversing the wilderness, hoping to find (or not) a pack of white intruders, who look at women as sex slaves and men as ready meat to fight off predators. The caricature-like characterization of all non-whites with monotonic bewilderment on their faces, or in constant search for the primal things (food, shelter and such) were very bothersome in spurts when they appeared.
Barring one little dialogue that refers to the theft and complete annihilation of peoples, their lands, their everything, this tale of barbarism turns into one of heroism and perseverance, of having survived a bear attack and abandonment after having been left for dead. While truly an American story, barring the visual brilliance, I was surely left wanting for more, both from the problematic politics and the handling of the subject matter by Iñárritu.
The film just cleaned up the Golden Globes on Sunday with Best Picture Drama, Actor and Directing honours.
The Revenant is out in cinemas.

When a senior FBI official told Congress the role the NSA's secret surveillance apparatus played in a San Diego terror financing case today, nobody was more surprised to hear it than the defense attorney who fought a long and futile court battle to get exactly the same information while defending the case in court.
"His lawyers -- who all have security clearances -- we can't learn about it until it's to the government's tactical advantage politically to disclose it," says New York attorney Joshua Dratel. "National security is about keeping illegal conduct concealed from the American public until you're forced to justify it because someone ratted you out."
Dratel represents Basaaly Saeed Moalin, a San Diego cab driver who was convicted in February of providing material support for a terrorist organization. Moalin raised money for the Somali militia group al Shabaab, which the State Department declared a foreign terrorist organization in 2008.
Before today the case was barely a footnote in the war on terror. But in testimony before the House Select Committee on Intelligence, FBI deputy director Sean Joyce brandished it -- without saying Moalin's name -- as one example of how the government's secret surveillance programs have thwarted terrorists. The FBI had investigated the San Diego man after the September 11 attacks, and found no connection to terrorist activity, Joyce said. Then in October 2007, the NSA, using the phone records it compiled with Patriot Act 215 orders, "tipped us off that this individual had indirect contacts with a known terrorist overseas," he said. "We were able to reopen this investigation, identify additional individuals through legal process and were able to disrupt this terrorist activity."
That's the end of the story, as Joyce told it. Under questioning he revealed enough to make it clear he was talking about the Moalin case, where court records show the rest of the story.
When the FBI got the case, it began spying on Moalin with a secret order from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, intercepting 1,800 phone calls amounting to "hundreds of hours" of conversations from December 2007 to December 2008, and 680 pages of emails from Moalin's account with Microsoft's Live.com service.

Research Shows The Connection Between Vitamin D Deficiency In Newborns And Schizophrenia
Researchers have discovered a link between neonatal vitamin D deficiency and schizophrenia.
The research, undertaken by a collaborative team of Australian and Danish scientist could mean early treatment of Vitamin D deficiency will reduce the number of incidents of adulthood schizophrenia.
Pregnant women advised getting adequate vitamin D
"Schizophrenia is a group of poorly understood brain disorders characterized by symptoms such as hallucinations, delusions, and cognitive impairment," Professor John McGrath from QBI and Aarhus University commented.
"As the developing fetus is totally reliant on the mother's vitamin D stores, our findings suggest that ensuring pregnant women have adequate levels of vitamin D may result in the prevention of some schizophrenia cases, in a manner comparable to the role folate supplementation has played in the prevention of spina bifida."
The study was based on the evidence that there were more schizophrenic people born in winter and spring.
The research was conducted by analyzing the vitamin D concentration in blood samples taken from Danish newborns between 1981 and 2000 who went on to develop schizophrenia as young adults.
8 percent of schizophrenia cases in Denmark related to vitamin D deficiency
This data was compared to blood samples from people who matched by sex and date of birth who had not developed schizophrenia.
Professor McGrath estimates that about 8 percent of schizophrenia cases in Denmark could be accounted for being caused by neonatal vitamin D deficiency.
"Much of the attention in schizophrenia research has been focused on modifiable factors early in life with the goal of reducing the burden of this disease," he said.
"Previous research identified an increased risk of schizophrenia associated with being born in winter or spring and living in a high-latitude country, such as Denmark."
Australians at risk despite high sunlight
"We hypothesized that low vitamin D levels in pregnant women due to a lack of sun exposure during winter months might underlie this risk, and investigated the association between vitamin D deficiency and risk of schizophrenia."
While the research has impacts on women living in places with low sunlight, the Australian researchers suggest that vitamin D deficiency is still possible in Australia due to the attention paid to SunSmart practices that minimize exposure to sunlight.
The study will continue to look at how Vitamin D impacts brain development. The research was published in Scientific Reports.
Researchers at the University of Tokyo fitted robotic eyes on a golf cart - to reduce accidents by self-driving vehicles. Did it work?

Interview with Kurdt Vanderhoof of Metal Church
Hello Kurdt! It's JP from Metal-Rules.com. Thank you for agreeing to the interview. You may or may not recall we met on 70, 000 Tons a few years back and I interviewed you (and the entire band) at that time. Time for another one! Thank you! The new album is charting and selling extremely well. To what do you attribute this new success?
I really don't know other than the fact that having Mike back in the band has really grabbed fans attention. And apparently people think the record is good?
Where did you record the new album? Did yo have a chance to jam out the songs in the studio with the band or was it a matter of everyone learning their parts and sending them in?
We recorded it at my studio. We built it up around the drum tracks after the demos were completed.
As always you wore many hats for this album; lyricist, songwriter, producer etc…was it hard to switch roles back and forth during the project?
Not really but, it does help to have input from the rest of the band. It can be a bit difficult to keep perspective when you are so close to the project.
I realize you have been asked this many times but how the return of Mr. Howe come about? Were you at all apprehensive about the state of his voice after so many years away?
I was a bit concerned at the beginning but, after speaking with him the 1st time he said he was still able to sing and had taken care of himself so any apprehension was gone quite quickly. And the when we started doing the demos it became very clear that he was singing better then ever!
My friends and I often discuss the singers of Metal Church. Three studio albums by Wayne, four albums by Monroe and now four studio albums with Howe. With the return of Howe, does this in a sense, make him the official, 'one -true' singer of Metal Church…or 'the voice' of Metal Church if you prefer?
Well, in a way but he is THE singer for Metal Church!
Can you tell me about the inspiration for the album cover art? I must admit it seems a bit plain as compared to some of the other album covers. Did you make a deliberate decision to move away from the iconic 'cross-guitar'?
It is the cross guitar. I made a deliberate decision to stay away from the cartoony typical metal album covers.
All of the Ronnie-era albums were excellent but XI seems to have a newfound energy? Where did that come from?
Im sure it was from the excitement of having Mike come back to the band and the fact that he was sounding bettr than ever. It gave us a new injection of life. And I also new that with him in the band that the atmosphere within the band would finally be a very positive one.
Many of the 'classic' US Power Metal / Thrash bands are experiencing nice career resurgences with Vicious Rumors, Helstar, Flotsam and Jetsam and you guys all putting out new albums this year. What is it that gives these bands the longevity?
I believe that its just the nature of the music. You never really outgrow it and you really never stop loving it. Besides with the new music biz totally affords us to keep doing it.
Considering the strength of the new material, will you be playing many of the new songs on the current tour? Will you being playing any songs from the Monroe era or leaning more heavily on the Howe era tunes? If yes, how do you feel about playing the songs that he sang on from the albums that you were not a part of at the time?
We are playing 3 songs off the new album and we are concentrating on the Mike Howe era for the rest of the set. We are doing a few from the David Wayne as well. WE wanted to play more of The Mike Howe era because a lot of these songs are new for this band and we wanted to play some newer material then what we have played in the past. We will not play any Ronny Munroe material.
When we last chatted on the 70, 000 Tons cruise, we discussed the possibility of a book, a DVD or a nice big Double Live album. Have there been any discussions along these lines?
Yes, we are still trying to figure out the best time and place to do a proper DVD and have a proper LIVE album. That is something that I very much want to do.
Lastly, what is your next step in world domination?
To play as much as possible and continue to make new music!!

Have you ever thought that Invisalign clear braces sound too good to be true? Well, they aren't! With Invisalign in Van Nuys, CA, you can straighten your smile without the inconvenience of metal while still keeping your orthodontia low-profile.
A Series of Clear Aligners
While traditional metal braces typically stay on your teeth for years at a time, Invisalign uses a progressive series of clear aligner trays that you switch out every few weeks. We tailor your Invisalign treatment specifically for your mouth, which means that each tray you wear gets your smile a little closer to where it needs to be.
You start by wearing your first straightening tray in the series for at least 22 hours each day. After approximately two weeks, you will discard this first tray and move on to the second tray. Your Invisalign aligners use gentle forces and pressure to move your teeth as you progress from aligner to aligner.
Gradual Teeth Straightening
When you treat with Invisalign in Van Nuys, our dentists design a treatment plan that's specific for your mouth. The amount of trays you'll need to wear throughout the program varies, but typical patients can require as few as 20 or as many as 50 or more.
Your teeth will move gradually at a rate that's safe and appropriate for you. Because your trays are made from clear plastic, and because you remove the trays for eating each day, you'll be able to see your progress as your teeth start to straighten out.
Get Started With Invisalign in Van Nuys, CA
To learn more about Invisalign treatment at The Dental Care Center, please contact our dentist office in Van Nuys today at (818) 651-7206.

We are fearful, even of our thoughts, and we push our fearful judgmental thoughts out of our conscious awareness. But our thoughts don't have power over us. In the safe environment of an "expression session" we let any feeling, anything that is hidden, come to light. With this practice we learn to allow all of our thoughts into awareness. None of our thoughts are actually true, and we can learn to overlook anything. Anything that is judged by us we tend to push out of awareness. Anything we push out of awareness into the unconscious mind we project out. So if we look around and think, "This is definitely not me," then we know there is still something we're hiding, that we've pushed out of awareness, and we don't really see that it is our own mind. So if that is still going on, if there is still a temptation to hide, if there is guilt, if there is a judgement that is still going on in the mind, than this exposing process is very essential, because that's going to allow everything that has been pushed out of awareness to come back to awareness. And once they come into awareness we will cease to give them belief and power. And when we don't give them power they don't have any power of their own. These thoughts don't really have control over us unless we believe in them.
This recording took place at A Gift of Happiness Week-Long Retreat (David Hoffmeister and Frances Xu – Morning Session), Wilbetree House, Mudgee, Australia (November 5, 2016)

Whoa whoa whoa. What's that about the waterfront? Well, the Rincon Hill blog says that Halloween might be forcibly migrated to Pier 32, according to "Scuttlebutt," which we assume is the gay version of the seagull from .
Well this is an interesting how-do-you-do. Halloween's turning into an uglier, scarier, more violent event, and the response is to shuttle it off to SOMA or Mission Bay. Sort of like how Beyond Chron says that city planning keeps crack addicts confined to the Tenderloin so that they won't bother the rest of us.
Just in case there was anyone left who still didn't feel uncomfortable about this whole Halloween thing.The Little Mermaid

What are BCAAs?
Amino Acids are the building blocks of proteins, aka, they're what protein turns into when broken down in your body. When you consume any type of protein in your diet, your body will digest it and break it down into amino acids.
Without amino acids, your body won't be able to function properly. They have many functions, like repairing and maintaining muscles, organs, nails, hair, skin, ligaments, connective tissues, glands, etc.
The three Branch Chain Amino Acids (BCAA) are Leucine, Valine, and Iso-leucine. Together they make up one-third of muscle protein and are responsible for stressed muscles, promoting quick recovery, extra energy, and preventing muscles from breaking down and even fat loss.
