Jesus is the most interesting man who ever lived.
He is also the most misunderstood man who ever lived.
Multiple billions of people all over the world claim to follow his teachings. More books have been written about him and love songs sung to him than any other person in the history of the world. The Bible, which was the first book ever printed on the printing press, as well as the biggest selling book of all time and perennial best seller, focuses on his life.
His influence is unprecedented. Many people, from some of the greatest leaders the earth has ever seen to the homeless living under a bridge, declare their devotion to him. His life is so monumental that the majority of the nations around the world mark the years with reference to his birth. The time designations of B.C. (Before Christ) and A.D. (Latin, Anno Domini meaning 'year of our Lord'), relate to the coming of Jesus into the world. Multitudes profess to be his followers. But how much do you really know about him?
Consider this—he didn't own a house, wasn't a king or ruler with land and subjects, had no army, wrote no books of his own, never traveled more than 320 miles from his birthplace, chose disciples that were either formally uneducated or social outcasts, ministered during a time when his homeland was conquered by a foreign power, lived in lower middle-class conditions for most of his life, only spoke publicly for three years, and was executed in his early thirties like a criminal.
No one should remember Jesus. No one should care about a Jewish peasant teacher from thousands of years ago. Would you expect this person to even be remembered in his own lifetime? Probably not. However, he is not just recalled from the pages of history like George Washington or Napoleon or King Tut or Tupac Shakur. He is adored. He is cherished. He is worshipped.
Does Jesus deserve such veneration from one person much less billions of people? Is this just more misplaced attention from desperate people looking for something or someone to hope in? Let's see. Take a journey with Jesus in Days With Jesus as we see him through the eyes of his best friend, John.

No. 9/9 Cal Extends Winning Streak to Seven
Jan. 12, 2008
BERKELEY, Calif. (AP) - A trip to the San Francisco Bay area used to be a mixed blessing for Pac-10 women's basketball teams - a struggle at perennial power Stanford coupled with a less-challenging contest at lowly California.
Now, the whole weekend is tough. Just ask Oregon State.
Devanei Hampton had 14 points and 12 rebounds, and No. 9 California held the Beavers to 26 percent shooting in a 61-45 win Saturday to give the Bears their first seven-game winning streak in 16 years.
Ashley Walker had 17 points to lead the Bears (15-2, 6-0 Pac-10), and Alexis Gray-Lawson added 14. Hampton, the reigning Pac-10 player of the year who has battled back from several knee operations, dominated underneath and nearly had a double-double at halftime.
The defeat completed a long weekend for Oregon State (8-8, 1-4), and especially for leading scorer Ashley Allen - who began the week leading the conference with 21.1 points, but was held to 13 points in Thursday's loss at No. 7 Stanford and seven points Saturday on 3-for-16 shooting.
'They're both very good defensively, very quick at the guard spots and big inside, which made it very tough for us,' said Allen, whose miserable day from the field ended with a missed layup with 2:30 remaining.
'They did a very good job of just being up in my face and following me everywhere and not making it easy for me,' Allen added. 'Every basketball player has their nights where things don't go their way, and today was one of those days.'
That was exactly the way Cal coach Joanne Boyle had it planned.
'I think the kids did a really good job of taking her and frustrating her a little bit,' Boyle said. 'I was pleased with our defense today.'
The Beavers were no match underneath for the much bigger Bears, with California holding a 40-8 points advantage inside. And OSU, which came into the game averaging 44 percent shooting, went 15-of-57 from the field.
Talisa Rhea led the Beavers with 16 points, including four 3-pointers, and Mercedes Fox-Griffin had 10 points and 5 assists.
Cal is 6-0 in the Pac-10 for the first time, but now will be heading into a much more challenging stretch that includes games Thursday at Arizona State and Jan. 26 at Stanford. Games against Stanford traditionally have been for local bragging rights, but this season also could be a battle of top-10 teams.
'We have higher expectations for ourselves,' Walker said. 'Mentally you have to think about what you have to do for every game. We're ranked the No. 9 team in the country, so we have to play like that every game.'
Cal's winning streak is its longest since the 1991-92 team won eight straight.
Walker and Gray-Lawson each had 11 points, and Hampton had 10 points and 8 rebounds, as Cal took a 42-21 halftime lead. The Beavers shot 21 percent in the half, hitting 7 of 33 shots.
Cal hit its first six shots and took a 14-2 lead, and held a comfortable lead the rest of the half. The 6-foot-3 Hampton dominated against much smaller OSU players, and even added a bit of flair by dribbling behind her back on one fast break.

Fun at the autism fair!10/04/2008 Posted by danette
Labels: autism, awareness
We had a great time! And of course I took lots of pictures and video clips. :)
This one is a little dark since we were in the shade, I did the 10-second delay with the camera on the trunk of my car, lol. This is us about to head out.
Here's a short video of some of the fun things they did, and several pictures below.
Here they are enjoying the moonwalk and inflatable slides :).
Doing a cakewalk to win some cupcakes...
They each won a cupcake :)
They loved the pony rides! We ended up doing that twice :).
We spent a lot of time in the petting zoo area. Cuddlebug loved the animals, especially the bunnies :). Bearhug liked seeing them but took a little longer to warm up to actually getting close.
The boys wanted some pictures of the animals, so I took these. When Cuddlebug saw the goat, he said, "Hey, he has a bandana just like me!" LOL
On our way back to the car at the end, the boys did a little happy dance to show how much fun they had :). They told me it was the best Saturday EVER. :)
They decided the loved the bunnies so much (Cuddlebug said he loves them because they're so quiet, lol) they want to dress up as bunnies for Halloween. Bearhug wants to be a black bunny and Cuddlebug wants to be a white bunny. That should be easy enough to make :). I'm going to wait just a little bit longer to actually start though, just in case they change their minds...

Hope it raised a lot of $$ for autism :)

Nice photo of the three of you. I could not get my kids to do pony rides. They like the bouncers too and petting zoo.
How do you do the grab button thing? I want to do one for my site

WOw, how cool is that! I wish they would have something like that around here!

Seriously adorable kids! Now I want a bunny...

Great pictures - especially the first one! I'm glad they had so much fun. It's probably a good thing I can't put my hands on a once-used pink bunny costume.....

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Have you been dreaming of frogs, worms, and potted plants? Researchers have found that pregnant women have an inordinate number of encounters with those three things during their sleep-time adventures. And while you may not technically be carrying a developing baby inside you, you are at least gestating a brainchild. Like a woman who will give birth in the not-too-distant future, you're both delicate and strong, a bit lumbering but radiantly graceful, sometimes out of sorts but often wiser than you've ever been.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): As Deputy Defense Secretary, Paul Wolfowitz was a key part of the team that planned America's invasion of Iraq in 2003. These days he's got a new gig, President of the World Bank, and prefers not to be distracted by the Downing Street memo and other ever-growing evidence that the war was built on faulty and deceitful assumptions. "There will be a time and place to talk about history," he has said, "but I really don't believe it's now." Wolfowitz should be your anti-role model in the coming week, Taurus. This is the time and this is the place for you to talk and think about your own personal history in exhaustive detail.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): According to author Truman Capote, "It's a scientific fact that if you stay in California, you lose one point of IQ for every year." I hope he was wrong, since it would mean my IQ has already declined 28 points since I moved to the West Coast in 1977. But even if his theory is correct, and you're a Gemini who lives in California, you'll be able to recover some of your lost intelligence in the coming weeks. That's because the current astrological configurations virtually guarantee that you'll be getting smarter, and probably wiser as well. As for you Twins living outside of California, you can expect to soar as close to the genius level as you ever have.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): Emily Dickinson had a boundless imagination and an intense craving for privacy. She wrote nearly 1800 poems, but kept them to herself, stashing most of them in a trunk belonging to her maid. Only seven of them were published while she was alive. Why did she hide the brilliant and prolific outpouring of her soul? No one really knows. Let's make sure you don't follow her example, Cancerian. In my astrological opinion, it's high time for you to begin revealing at least some of the incredible beauty that you conceal from the world. When you look back at this period of your life 40 years from now, maybe you'll say, "That was the turning point, when I stopped being such a closely guarded secret."

You are guaranteed to get wet on this ride. Anywhere from "My shirt is wet, it feels good and dries in 30 minutes" to "I'm soaked down to my socks, shoes and underwear, this is going to be a long squishy day".
Better Rides, Better Shows. That Steve Martin puppet is not a "wild and crazy guy", he's more like a demon from Puppet Master! Barbara Mandrell, I'm starting to miss the 80's. And there's the brand new "Buccaneer", it was only an artist conception in 1980 (link).
Better Adventures! Do you get the feeling Magic Mountain is "better"? Spillikin's handcrafters, what fun, candy making and yes, basket weaving! That food on the silver platter looks a lot "better" that the food from the 1980 brochure (link).
"Only two Gallons North of Hollywood". I guess they dropped that tag line some time after the fuel shortages of the 70's.
If your into the Magic of the Mountain, be sure to check out all my previous posts here (link).
This week's worth of posts had no Bonus Sunday teasers, so here you go. This is the center fold from a great 1965/66 "Schwinn takes a trip to Disneyland" catalog. If you haven't seen it, it's really amazing. It has 36 pages with tons of photos almost entirely taken at Disneyland (on a closed day obviously). I can't find a date, but "66" is written in pencil on the back and this photo is somewhat rare in that it's the "Old" Tomorrowland (55'-66') with the "New" square Skyway buckets (65' to 94').
Come back on Bonus Sunday for the entire "Schwinn takes a trip to Disneyland" catalog.

How does Instagram work and why should I use it?
Last updated: 8 May 2016
We've all heard of Instagram. But even if you're an avid Insta-uploader, you're probably not aware of all the stuff it can do. What started as a nifty iPhone app in 2010 has now evolved into a multi-platform social networking app that'll bring your photos and videos to life - the perfect partner for your amazing smartphone camera.
How does Instagram work?
You create an account, in the same way you would on Facebook or Twitter. Then, when you post your photos or videos to Instagram they'll appear on your profile for all your friends and contacts to see.
Your account will also have a newsfeed, so you can see all the best moments from the people you choose to follow.
What exactly does it do?
Instagram was primarily designed for mobile use, but it now has a web presence too. It's an instant memory maker. Just snap a photo with your smartphone, and turn it into an image worth keeping by choosing a filter and transforming it into something extra special.
Whether you want to add a sepia, vintage feel with a rough-cut border, or a colour saturated, retro look; even the most amateur of photographers can end up with a picture worth sharing.
According to Instagram: "We're building Instagram to allow you to experience moments in your friends' lives through pictures as they happen. We imagine a world more connected through photos."
And it's good to know that all the usual privacy settings are available, so if you don't want a public profile, you can switch that off.
Just how popular is Instagram?
According to DMR's recent Instagram Stats report (Jan 2016) there are 400 million active monthly Instagram users, and 75 million daily users. That's impressive stuff.
But where does this success lie? Maybe it's due to the fact that Instagram makes it very easy to do something that you imagine is tricky and reserved for 'creative' types. From the minute Instagram launched, it revolutionised the concept of editing photos on an iPhone.
The social side of Instagram.
Whatever you do to your image, once you've finished, Instagram's social media side comes into play. So you can share your activity and socialise. And connectivity is definitely the name of the game. You can link your Instagram account to your Twitter, Facebook and Pinterest profiles; so each time you upload a photo to Instagram, you'll have the chance to share it somewhere else too.
And don't forget that you'll be able to get even more out of Instagram with Three.
Our 4G network will make all these tweaks and features happen at lightning speed, and because you can use your phone in 18 countries at no extra cost with Feel At Home, you'll be able to make the most of your holiday snaps and share them via Instagram without having to worry about the cost.
Why not give it a go? Get snapping and editing, and unleash your inner David Bailey. Even if you don't consider yourself the creative type, you'll be amazed with the results you can get with just a couple of taps.

Consumer-Centric Innovation
TIP OF THE WEEK | Management
As consumer product companies embrace the reality of empowered consumers and the Internet-enabled world, many have been moving to an "open innovation" product development model, report Pat Conroy and Art Ash of Deloitte LLP. This model is based on the idea that information can now be gathered on a mass scale by using both external (end users, suppliers, academia, etc.) and internal (employees) sources as inputs into the new product development process. The concept has taken hold because companies are realizing the benefit of having access to a global network of qualified, available citizens who are willing to provide input on problem solving or suggesting new solutions to old ways of doing business. Open innovation is creating new ways to organize and think about R&D within companies.
In a new report, "Consumer-Centric Innovation: Tapping Into Consumer Insights to Drive Growth," Conroy and Ash discuss six key action steps that companies should consider to help make their innovation efforts more consumer centric. These components provide companies with a new way of thinking about innovation that often can yield favorable long-term results. In a time when consumers are increasingly bypassing companies and creating their own products or solutions and sharing them with others, the power and potential of consumer-centric innovation is too important to ignore.
The report is available for download from the Deloitte Web site.

Rainbow Ideas
I like to make Rainbow stew with my kindergartners to help them see how the colors of the rainbow are made. To do this you will need a Ziploc freezer baggie for each child. Make three batches of the stew and color each batch with either red, yellow or blue food coloring. Cool completely before putting in the baggies.
Rainbow Stew: Cook Together: 2 cups water 1/3 cup sugar 2/3 cup corn starch Food coloring-either red, yellow or blue. Use at least 1-2 teaspoons of liquid food coloring for intense color. When cool, put a spoonful of each color in the baggie, push out air and seal. Children can blend colors as they squish with the baggie with their fingers. On e batch of each color is enough for about 12-16 children-one Tablespoon per child per color.

Very impressive by the pumpers. If I short I would definitely box those shares. Impressive squeeze. Glad I cut my loss when I did. Here is my blogpost about my recent GNIN loss (I cut my loss but I should of cut it even sooner. Learn) http://www.pennystockrealist.com/2013/03/gnin-my-biggest-short-loss-to-date-what.html
I had class this morning. 9:30am class I had a test so I put in short orders for $SMAK before class. After I got out of class I got 9k shares filled at .19. As I expected this to gap and crap. It's good to understand certain pumpers and their past plays. I was not scared of this going super against me because these pumpers dont have that kind of juice in their lists. I even covered some on my drive home from my blackberry. No excuses this was a gimmie and IB had plenty of shares. I made about $500. You got to love trading. As usual I covered way to soon..
Do Not be a Penny Stock Moron $SWVI
WDCO defended .17 hard today no surprise that it closed decently. Hopefully sells off below .17 tomorrow. Still in a week this should be below .10

We're serious about education...are they?
The Learning Press EXCLUSIVE
Education is jockeying for position as we line up for the start of this election campaign.
In the scramble to establish priority, we think it should be front runner.
If Australia gets school and university reform right, we have a once-in-a-generation chance to become one of the most innovative nations on the planet - running at the forefront of a technological revolution that will make this century almost unrecognisable from the last.
If we don't, and our innovation complexity is allowed to shrink, our international competitiveness to decline and the learning gap between advantaged and disadvantaged children to grow - we may forever become the puny kid lagging at the back.
At the Learning Press we have no affiliations to any group or political party and no agenda beyond being the best education news resource on the planet.
So, Mr Shorten, Mr Turnbull, Mr Di Natale - take note that we will assessing every move you make when it comes to the most vital issue of 2016.
As the jostling begins and the gun sounds, here's why education should be leader of the pack this election…
Firstly, it gives a good return on investment.
University research has boosted the Australian economy by around $10 billion each year over the past three decades according to a recent report by Deloitte Access Economics.
Those productivity gains have come from research breakthroughs which have led to more efficient ways of doing things.
They are in addition to the $25 billion universities contribute annually to the Australian economy (directly and indirectly) and $19 billion raised through international education last year - a growing and lucrative export industry.
Modelling by the Australian Workforce and Productivity Agency in 2013 showed every extra dollar invested in tertiary education would, on average, grow the economy by $26 by 2025.
Effective democracies are dynamic, evolving forms of government that demand independent thinking from their populations.
The opportunity for social and political change rests in the hands of the people and an informed population is in a better position to improve its democracy.
In democratic societies, educational content and practice support the habits of government because the social norms, culture, and ideals of any society pass from one generation to the next.
Many of history's major figures have acknowledged the role of education in creating a stronger and safer world.
Nelson Mandela said: "Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world".
Former UN secretary general Kofi Annan described it as a "human right with immense power to transform", and said: "On its foundation rest the cornerstones of freedom, democracy and sustainable human development."
In contrast, many of history's greatest villains have maligned education.
Every totalitarian dictatorship of the last century sought to oppress political dissent through anti-intellectualism - Franco, Stalin, Hitler and Pol Pot were among the most strident anti-intellectuals, persecuting and exiling teachers, philosophers, writers and artists.
To be happy we need freedom of choice, and a good education gives greater scope to the choices that shape lives.
No-one highlights this more eloquently than Noel Pearson in his Cape York Agenda when he says: "It should be truly sad to all of us, that in a country as prosperous, as free, and as opportunity-filled as Australia, that any group of its citizens should have such little real choice as Indigenous Australians.
"Nevertheless, it is the reality. We need to recreate that basic fabric of society that lets Indigenous Australians enjoy that freedom. We will need to be as educated as you, live as long as you, have the same access to real jobs as you."
A report by the Mitchell Institute shows the gap in educational achievement between advantaged and disadvantaged children in Australia widening, with the kids of well-educated, well-off urban parents staying at school longer and enjoying greater choice of job and study options afterwards.
Raising the expectations and increasing the choices of disadvantaged children are central to the Australian ideal of the 'fair go' - and social equality is a good indicator of a nation's all-round health.
A university graduate is likely to earn $1 million more over their lifetime than someone who does not finish Year 12.
According to a report from The National Centre for Social and Economic Modelling, those holding bachelor degrees are likely to earn about $2.9 million over their lifetime.
That compares with $2.07 million for someone with a Year 12 qualification and $1.74 million for a person whose highest level of education is Year 11.
The link between education and health presents a compelling case for investing in education as a health strategy.
According to a 2015 Melbourne University study, Australian children who stay in school longer tend to have a better diet and take more regular exercise than their peers.
And according to numerous studies, education level and longevity show a strong correlation.
One study, Estimated deaths attributable to social factors in the United States study in 2011, showed some 245,000 American adults died in 2000 as a result of low levels of education - compared with 192,898 from heart attacks.
"Broadly, life expectancy is increasing, but those with more education are reaping most of the benefits," said Virginia Chang of the New York University's School of Medicine in an interview with The Australian newspaper last July.
"The bottom line is paying attention to education has the potential to substantively reduce mortality."
Former PM Julia Gillard has joined Michelle Obama and Hilary Clinton in an international push to educate girls across the globe.
Figures show an educated girl in the developing world is more likely to marry later, will have fewer and healthier children, and has a better chance of staying healthy and remaining alive.
For each year she stays in school, her income rises by 10-20%.
"With opportunities to earn a living, she will pull herself out of poverty, and bring her family and community with her," states the agenda of the Because I am a Girl campaign.
While Australian girls enjoy a comparatively privileged lifestyle, the paths laid by their feminist forebears are not concreted in.
According to The National Centre for Social and Economic Modelling, there is a big discrepancy between how much men can expect to earn during their careers compared with women who have the same level of qualification.
WB Yeats described education as: "Not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire."
Whether formal or informal, education gives people the chance to improve their awareness and develop their identity, grow talents to develop their potential and increase their employability and usefulness.
Personal development enhances quality of life and contributes to the realisation of dreams and aspirations.
We've set out our reasons for why education matters and they probably differ from yours.
But that's the beauty of education - it stimulates the ability and confidence to form opinions, construct arguments and shape debates.
Education embeds the roots of our society and it is something we should value, protect and develop as vital to our future.
Abraham Lincoln said, "The philosophy of the school room in one generation will be the philosophy of government in the next."
At the Learning Press, we take education seriously because we know that's what the planet requires.

As a federal judge considers a proposed settlement between BP and Gulf Coast residents harmed by the 2010 oil spill, a legal subplot has developed around workers who allege they were sickened by chemicals used to clean up the oil.
Nalco, which manufactured the dispersant Corexit, and some companies that applied it during the cleanup, have asked U.S. District Judge Carl Barbier of New Orleans to dismiss them from the tangle of litigation arising from the spill.
And that's created a dilemma for plaintiffs considering whether to participate in a proposed multibillion-dollar settlement BP worked out with a steering committee representing claimants who suffered economic damage or health problems.
The proposed class action settlement would include compensation for past and future medical problems related to the spill. Plaintiffs must opt out of the settlement by Oct. 1 if they want to pursue legal action independent of the Plaintiffs' Steering Committee.
Plaintiffs who believe they were harmed by Corexit and opt out of the settlement essentially are gambling that they can win higher damage awards through individual lawsuits against Nalco or the companies that used its dispersant.
"The only way a cleanup worker could bring a suit against Nalco would be to refuse the settlement and not be part of the settlement class," said Robert Verchick, an environmental law professor at Loyola University who has followed the case. "If you do that, you would risk not getting what you are getting under the settlement."
Nalco and the other dispersant defendants have asked Barbier to dismiss their cases with prejudice – meaning they could not face further spill- related lawsuits. Barbier plans to hear oral arguments from both sides on Friday.
The spill responders contend that the federal Clean Water Act provides them immunity from liability for actions taken at the government's direction.
"Nalco provided Corexit at the express request of the federal on-site coordinators," Nalco attorneys wrote in the dismissal motion filed in May. "Nalco supplied a product that was and had been listed on the federal government's list of approved dispersants for decades and that the government repeatedly approved for use during the response."
Nalco declined to comment further on the case.
Question of liability
The Plaintiffs' Steering Committee argues that Nalco and the responders who used Corexit have some liability for any related health issues and should not be summarily freed from responsibility – either under the settlement or in independent litigation.
While the court-appointed steering committee's proposed settlement with BP would cover plaintiffs injured from spill response activities, the committee is fighting Nalco's motion, arguing that it represents the interests of all plaintiffs pursuing litigation related to BP, even those who opt out of the settlement.
"We believe that BP is 100 percent responsible, but when you look at the facts, it's hard to say that some of those responder defendants did not contribute to the illnesses of the workers," said Robin Greenwald, a Plaintiffs' Steering Committee attorney who helped negotiate the medical side of the proposed settlement with BP. "They put the people out to work and they didn't give them Tyvek gloves or they didn't give them masks and the proper clothing to wear, or they didn't notify them before the plane came by to spray Corexit."
After BP's Macondo well blew out on April 20, 2010, the company and its contractors used 1.8 million gallons of dispersants to break up oil on the surface and as it gushed from the wellhead a mile below, according to a report in May by the U.S. Government Accountability Office. The GAO called for additional research into the effectiveness of dispersants on and below the surface.
The Environmental Protection Agency has approved Corexit to disperse oil spills on surface water, but plaintiffs have argued it is dangerous and was used in an unreasonable manner. They also said that it has not been tested for use in deep-water situations.
Massive case
Lawsuits naming Nalco as a defendant are among thousands that Barbier has bundled into a single massive case and scheduled for trial in three phases starting in January.
If he agrees to dismiss Nalco and the related defendants, plaintiffs with claims specific to Corexit will have to decide whether to appeal that decision to a higher court or sign on to the proposed class action settlement, still subject to Barbier's approval and supervision.
"If I had clients suing Nalco, I would want them in Barbier's court because I think Barbier will have a sense of the case that no one else would, and because he is a good judge," Verchick said. "Second, I could get relief faster and I could probably have a better chance of a settlement because I would be in with other claimants and have that leverage that comes with numbers."
Beaumont-based lawyer Brent Coon, who represents more than 10,000 spill plaintiffs, noted that the proposed medical settlement includes a program to monitor spill respondents' health. That could be valuable in discovering future medical problems.
Medical monitoring
"We are recommending the medical settlement program for most of our clients, even though it leaves Nalco off the hook," Coon said. "The reality is, most people exposed to these kinds of toxins don't develop a disease for many years. For most plaintiffs that were exposed, it is premature to sue, and the medical monitoring program at least develops a mechanism to measure how they were impacted."
But Louisiana-based lawyer Daniel Becnel says he is encouraging the 3,500 cleanup workers he represents to fight their cases in court.
"I have hundreds of people that are horribly sick," Becnel said.
He said the settlement caps medical claims for cleanup workers at $60,000, which he considers potentially inadequate since their medical prognoses are uncertain.

Main Campus – Gainesville
Master of Architecture (M.Arch.) Program
Program Director: Jason Alread
Professor and Director, U. F. School of Architecture
Graduate Coordinator: Bradley Walters
Associate Professor, U.F. School of Architecture
Sheryl McIntosh, Admissions Officer
Phone: (352) 294-1460
Office: ARC 231D
Program Overview
The University of Florida's Master of Architecture (M.Arch) program leads to a professional degree accredited by the National Architectural Accrediting Board (NAAB), the educational credentials you need for licensure as a registered as an architect in the US, Canada and Mexico. Students applying to the program will follow one of three curricular tracks, based on their academic qualifications and portfolio of work. The program requires students to develop an individual focus of study, supported by faculty of their choosing, that will serve as the foundation for their Master's Research Project to be completed in the final semester of the program.
Four-year Master of Architecture (100 credit hours) – offered to students with a bachelor degree in fields other than architecture. The program begins in August and requires residency in Gainesville for all programs. – Main Campus and the CityLab Orlando.
Two-year Master of Architecture (52 credit hours) – May be offered to students with a qualifying pre-professional degree such as a bachelor's degree in architectural design, a successful record of six to eight previous design studios, and a portfolio of work reflecting sufficient proficiency in architectural design.
One-year Master of Architectural Studies (32credit hours) – May be offered to students currently holding an accredited professional degrees such as the five-year Bachelor of Architecture or previous Master of Architecture and outstanding portfolios.
Students accepted into these programs are notified in their acceptance letters (via email) as to which of these curricular paths they will follow. All admissions decisions, including curricular paths, are determined by the Admissions Committee.
The culmination of your Master of Architecture studies is the Master's Research Project. This final exercise is intended to be a highly personal synthesis of all the knowledge, experience and skills gained in design studio and the support courses, driven by your own specific focus and individual interests.
National Architecture Accreditation Board Statement:
In the United States, most state registration boards require a degree from an accredited professional degree program as a prerequisite for licensure. The National Architectural Accrediting Board (NAAB), which is the sole agency authorized to accredit U.S. professional degree programs in architecture, recognizes three types of degrees: the Bachelor of Architecture, the Master of Architecture, and the Doctor of Architecture. A program may be granted a 6-year, 3-year, or 2-year term of accreditation, depending on the extent of its conformance with established educational standards.
Doctor of Architecture and Master of Architecture degree programs may consist of a pre-professional undergraduate degree and a professional graduate degree that, when earned sequentially, constitute an accredited professional education. However, the pre-professional degree is not, by itself, recognized as an accredited degree.
The University of Florida School of Architecture offers the following NAAB-accredited degree programs:
- Arch. (pre-professional degree + 52 graduate credits)
- Arch. (professional degree + 32 graduate credits)
- Arch. (non-pre-professional degree + 100 graduate credits)

Admission Requirements
The UF School of Architecture's graduate admissions committee considers applications for entry during January and February of each calendar year. All application materials must be submitted by January 1st for consideration to enter the following summer or fall semesters. Academic Transcripts must be transmitted from your previous/current academic institution. Your undergraduate grade point average will be calculated using the last 60 semester credits (or 90 quarter credits) of your bachelor's degree, of which 3.00 is the minimum acceptable.
The Following are the submission requirements for all MArch applicants:
- Graduate Record Examination (GRE) must be transmitted prior to the deadline. Although a minimum quantitative score is not established, students are expected to be in the top 70% of test takers in a given year based on GRE score rankings published annually.
- Design portfolio of previous studio work, independent projects and/or other creative work (digital preferred). Your portfolio should illustrate strength in conceptual design, critical thinking, and represent knowledge of architectural conventions – plan, section, elevation, and three-dimensional diagrams and renderings. Your portfolio can be transmitted electronically to: Sheryl McIntosh at email@example.com.
- Official transcripts and credentials from all previous higher education institutions attended.
- Three letters of recommendation from people qualified to assess your academic performance or professional experience.
- A personal letter of intent detailing your motives and goals in pursuing a graduate education in architecture, as well as your intended focus or specialization.
- If you are a foreign applicant, you must submit your Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) score, of which 550 (paper format), 213 (internet based), or 80 (web based) is the expected minimum score.
English Testing Exemptions
Non-US and Puerto Rican graduate applicants can be exempted from the IELTS, MELAB, TOEFL or verbal GRE requirements if:
- They have official proof of completing the UF English Language Institute (ELI) prior to applying. For more information on UF ELI programs, click on this link: UF ELI Programs.
- They are citizens of a country where English is an official language. Click on this link for a list of these countries: English Exemption Countries.
- They have transcripts showing at least one year of enrollment as a full-time student at a college or university in a country where English is official, within one year before applying to UF. Click on this link for a list of these countries: English Exemption Countries. Please note: Time spent in ESL (English as a Second Language) programs do not qualify for this exemption.
The graduate admissions committee bases its decision on the overall strength of your application package, rather than isolated scores or criteria. The application deadline is January 1st of each year – all application materials must reach UF by this date. Late applications are not necessarily turned away, but they cannot be guaranteed priority for placement or financial aid consideration. The committee will notify you of its decision by letter. The emailing of these letters is tentatively scheduled for the last week of March.
At the UF School of Architecture, you can work on earning more than one master's degree at a time, such as architecture and building construction, or architecture and planning. Dual degree programs are worked out on a case-by-case basis. This option involves a lengthier commitment of time and resources, but it can greatly expand your professional qualifications and career options.

Foundation sponsored a Thomson Reuters survey of expert opinion in the field of women's rights included all members of the League of Arab States and resulted in results announced Tuesday for solutions to Egypt in the tail arrangement Arab countries in terms of respect for the status of women,while dissolved Republic of the Comoros at the top of Arab countries .
The survey does not answer the question: Why ended up in Egypt at the tail end of the ranking of countries in terms of women 's rights and freedoms and put it ? But , according to what she said Monique Villa Managing Director of Thomson Reuters Foundation " is based on the vision of experts on the issue of women for women's rights in the member states of the Arab League. "
Egyptian and raised voices on the villa questions about the credibility of the poll and the followers of the scientific method to demonstrate its credibility .
She said in exclusive statements to the Egyptian votes The poll included 600 specialists in women's issues in the region but did not use the completed answers to the survey , number 336 . Participants included in the survey : health care officials and relief workers and activists in the field of women's rights and decision - makers , lawyers, academics and journalists at the regional, national and local levels .
" We put 36 questions on all of them and values the extent to which countries are committed major items in the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women , which joined or signed or ratified by most of the Arab countries. "
The questions focused in the poll on six axes , all based on the basic texts of the International Convention : Women in politics, women in society, women in the economy , women in the family , reproductive rights and violence against women.
" We put 36 questions on all of them and values the extent to which countries are committed major items in the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women , which joined or signed or ratified by most of the Arab countries. "
With regard to the performance of Egypt said Villa , " despite the fact that women in Saudi Arabia (for example) does not يقدن cars for example, and prohibited them a lot of things without the presence or guardian's consent , but that the order of Egypt ( comparison ) was bad in every one of the areas where roads survey .. poll results appear that after nearly three years on the Arab revolutions order came three countries of the Arab Spring in the bottom of the list. "
She added, " Sexual harassment has become a political weapon , even in Tahrir Square , where recorded last summer rape cases the purpose of terrorizing women and silence them . Seems that women were better off in Egypt under Mubarak what are today after falling three years . This is not my opinion, but the opinion of experts. "
A few days ago said Dalia Abdel Hamid, a researcher at the Egyptian Initiative for Personal Rights, said in an interview with the sounds of Egyptian The prevalence of harassment , or "sexual violence" , began in 2005 , when there was an upsurge in political activity , which introduced more women into the public domain , although violence sexual used to punish women for their participation in the mass demonstrations during the Egyptian revolution , which women played a prominent role .
Accompanied the survey analyzes and reports and facts about the status of women in the Arab world prepared by the Thomson Reuters Foundation and participated in Egyptian votes .

Today marks one whole entire year since i went into the mental hospital and was diagnosed with bipolar disorder (unspecified). Today one year ago changed my whole life. Today one year ago, I also stopped drinking alcohol, so yeah a year with no booze on top of it. I still smoked weed everyday, but that is coming to an end as well.
I wish I could say that today I find myself stronger and have overcome and got a whole new look and love of life. I can not. Only a few days ago I spend four days going though hours upon hours of contemplating killing myself and various ways to do it. I spent hours researching why I felt like I did and if it was possible to have a good quality of life. I still am not convinced i will have a good life. I think it will be a struggle every single day to just remain grounded and hold my emotions together. I think no matter what amount of medicine I take, its never going to be enough. It will always be a game of cat and mouse to keep me and my chemicals balanced.
I can't even take care of myself. I get so desperate and cling to anything that comes by when I'm stressed because I have a high level of lifestyle that I keep. My OCD makes me feel unable to fully relax around anyone else, and to live in something small or gross or loud. I keep myself down and depending on others because its impossible for me to work a normal job and keep such a high standard of living. I am so broke. Yet, I will still go buy my friend a vodka for breakfast and eat at a diner instead of the hotel breakfast.Why? because the hotel breakfast looked gross and I wouldn't eat it. Thats serious. I really wouldn't eat it. So I keep myself down. I feel like it gets worse every year.
I wish I could be the poster girl of hard work can over come mental illness. I wish I had faith that I would be totally okay and "normal" again. I can't. I am unsure if I ever will. I think anyone with mental illness would agree, there is no guarantee that we will find a way to live happily. We all want it, but truly our illness stops us. My illness stops me from having a good routine and feeling peaceful around other people. Its like how someone with a serious physical can't go out running and cook themselves healthy food. The illness stops you from it. If its not my emotions then its my mania. Then my mania turns into depression and my depression gets so bad until I finally pull myself together. I drag myself up and get strength and then have a few good weeks or sometimes only a full week of plans and diagrams and charts and journals of my progress. I "finally got it together!" to only fail on the slightest departure from my routine or plan. One day of extra laziness in the morning stops me from doing yoga anymore. One day. Its bananas. Its my illness. I don't even know how to stop that cycle. I know its absurd, and I can "start today"! but for some reason I have yet to find a way to do it.
Nobody called or congratulated me. Nobody even checked in on me. I had 5 different people know of my deep darkness last week, and even left in a hurry the other morning to "go be alone" and never asked if I was okay. I even told several people that today was my anniversary of no booze and some of hospital. Nothing. No support. No encouragement. No good job! Nothing.
Why would someone like me want to keep fighting? what am i even fighting for? to fight? i fucking hate it. I want to be peaceful and quiet. I want to be safe and sound. I want to be stable. I want to be in my own world, if I have to. I want to not have to defend myself and my emotions all the time. I want to be seen and not judged.
How do I teach myself how to live?

I was going to comment about Bugs Bunny and how he probably contributed to a number of funny feelings down there for young boys, but then I saw the Yeti movie. That's not a real movie, is it? It's not on Netflix as far as I can tell. I'll check Redbox later, but holy hell I want to see that movie.

I've been laughing my way through your recent posts, Debra, except for the CBC no longer able to broadcast hockey games. That was a bit of a gut kick, even if I cursed CBC when I was a kid because hockey preempted everything on our one and only tv channel. I especially enjoyed the Leviticus post. I have no idea where you find all these wonderful images and jokes, but I appreciate the effort you put into it.

Connecticut's Congressional delegation is joining in Gov. M. Jodi Rell's battle with the Obama administration for federal help for tornado-damaged Bridgeport.
On June 24, 100-mile per hour winds "devastated a quarter mile stretch of the city," the Congress members wrote in a letter to the president.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency investigated and determined that the storm caused more than $2 million in public property damage and $1 million in individual property damage, but denied the state's application for a federal disaster declaration for Fairfield County and Rell appealed.
Now, Senators Chris Dodd and Joe Lieberman, and U.S. Representatives Jim Himes, Rosa DeLauro, John Larson, Joe Courtney and Chris Murphy are urging Obama to reconsider FEMA's rejection.
"In short, without federal assistance, the affected households and businesses will not have access to the financial resources that will allow them to pick themselves up, dust themselves off, and get to work rebuilding their lives," the letter says. "These are precisely the circumstances for which federal disaster assistance was intended, and we hope that you will reconsider FEMA's decision."
The City of Bridgeport was most affected, but significant damage was also documented in Stratford, Trumbull, Weston, and Easton.
The June storm came after severe Spring storms for Fairfield County. In March, FEMA granted Fairfield County a major disaster declaration, and Public and Individual Assistance.
FEMA, at that time, recognized that "the resources of Connecticut and its municipalities have been overwhelmed by those events," the letter says.
FEMA officials are still in Fairfield County assisting with that incident, according to Rell.
"This should be a clear indication that the State and local governments are still over-extended and in need of federal assistance in this case," they letter from local Congress members says.
As Rell said in her appeal, 86 percent of the people affected by storm damage are considered low-income and only 17 percent had insurance.
"Many of these individuals and families were renters, and given their income levels, it is not unlikely that many of them will be more dependent on City and State services for basic necessities unless federal assistance is provided," the elected officials said.

Wolves Take Series Behind 4-2 Win
- Created: 22 November 2017
The Eugene Generals (5-12-1) were defeated by the Wenatchee Wolves on Wednesday afternoon at the Town Toyota Center in Wenatchee, Washington by a final score of 4-2.
After falling to the Wolves the night prior by a score of 4-1, the Generals entered Wednesday's matinee matchup looking to leave Washington with a split of the two-game series, but it took less than four minutes for Wenatchee to open the scoring as Jake Landers netted his third goal of the series at the 3:47 mark - Wenatchee's third power play goal of the series - to put the Wolves ahead early, 1-0.
Eugene answered to tie the score at 1-1 with 8:48 left in in the second period behind Alex Clark's team-leading 11th goal of the season, and the two sides would enter the third still tied at one goal apiece.
Wenatchee quickly regained the lead at the 3:09 mark of the third period thanks to Landers' second goal of the game, but Eugene's Garret Foster responded with just under ten minutes remaining in the period to score his second goal in as many games since joining the Generals and tie the score at 2-2.
However, Wenatchee would go back in front just 18 seconds later as Wolves captain Zach Ross scored unassisted, and Landers would add a late empty-netter to complete his hat trick and seal a narrow 4-2 win for the Wolves.
Despite taking the loss, Generals goaltender Jamie Frantz put forth another fantastic effort by a Eugene net minder in Wenatchee as he turned away 58 of 61 shots faced on the evening. Together with Generals goaltender Christopher Alexakis, the two combined to stop 110 of 117 Wenatchee shots over the two-game series (Alexakis: stopped 52 of 56 on Tuesday / 4-1 loss).

December is officially here which means holiday parties and celebrations are in full-swing. This loose bun is the perfect mix of sweet curls and polished holiday updo. The best part? The dirtier your hair the better. This look is all about volume and texture, plus it works on almost any hair length and thickness.
We asked Neroli Salon & Spa Hair Designer, Michelle for her take on the perfect Holiday Updo and this is what she came up with…
Prep: Dirty or day-old hair is a plus, but if you're working with clean hair, just make sure to add product. Below are the three I used for this tutorial. A medium hold hair spray, dry shampoo and a texturizing paste. You'll need a lot of bobby pins and a few hair ties as well.
Step 1: Updo 101…they always work best with some added texture. I used a one inch iron to prep my hair then added a texturizing paste, dry shampoo and medium hold hairspray for workability.
Step 2: section hair into 4 sections.
Step 3: Make pony tail with your bottom section and back comb for volume.
Step 4: Make a bun out of your low pony tail and pin it to your head.
Step 5: Take top section down, criss cross right and left over and secure at the top of the bun
Step 6: Take your two front sections and start to criss cross them one at a time round your bun left to right and pin into place.
Step 7: Take the left side of the front section and wrap it across the bun finishing on the right
Step 8: tuck all extra hair falling down underneath the bun and curl the remaining front pieces.
Step 9: No holiday look is complete without red lips. Happy holidays!

There are two main ways to reach Anguilla, the small island nation found in the Caribbean Sea. Tourists can purchase flights to St. Martin/St. Maarten's Princess Juliana International Airport and catch the ferry to Anguilla. Alternatively, they can buy direct flights to Anguilla and land at Clayton J. Lloyd International Airport, formerly referred to as Anguilla Wallblake Airport, which is Anguilla's main airport. Anguilla's airport is very small in size and offers few amenities. Taxis are available at the airport. Travelers landing on Anguilla flights at St. Martin/St. Maarten Airport can take the ferry from St. Martin's Marigot ferry dock which is accessible by taxi.
Taxis in Anguilla are unmetered and have set rates making it easy for you to budget your cab fare. Taxi drivers are happy to offer tours of the island. These tours often last hours in duration, the fees for which must be paid in cash. Cars, bikes, and mopeds can be rented for the exploration of Anguilla. Rental cars are available from a range of different agencies, including well-known companies such as Hertz and Avis. For bike rentals, visitors may wish to try Boo's Car and Cycle Rentals or Premier Mountain Bike Rentals.
Anguilla is home to many gardens, including the Hydroponic Farm and Organic Gardens, the Endangered Species Garden, and Indigenous Local Plants Gardens. If flora and fauna does not appeal to you, a walk around the Temenos Golf Club's green may strike up some interest. The amateur golfer may wish to try their hand at mini-golf at the Play-A-Round Mini-Golf Park instead. Horseback riding is popular with children and adults who have purchased airfare to Anguilla. This activity is offered by Seaside Stables, Cliffside Stables, and El Rancho Del Blues. For a relaxing ocean experience Shoal Bay Scuba offers diving activities in Anguilla.
Tourists on cheap flights to Anguilla will find an enchanting shopping experience awaits them. The Savannah Gallery offers eclectic works of art for travelers to take back home as treasured souvenirs. Uncle Ernie's on Shoal Bay Beach is where tourists on Anguilla flights will find local yet affordable BBQ food. Roy's, above Crocus Bay, is a British-owned eating establishment, known for serving up delicious fish and chips. Oriental Restaurant and Bar is where quality Chinese cuisine is found. Anguilla offers many destinations in which to relax and listen to music. Johnno's Beach Bar and Grill is a popular hangout. For those who are musically inclined English Rose Restaurant offers karaoke on Friday nights.
