Saint Vincent College is a welcoming environment, sharing the core values of the Benedictine tradition, especially hospitality, community, love, prayer and respect for the dignity of all.
Founded in 1848 by Boniface Wimmer, a monk from Bavaria, we are the first Benedictine college in the United States. Saint Vincent College has striven to embody the ideals and character of the 1,500-year-old heritage of Benedictine education. For 170 years, the monks of Saint Vincent have exemplified and carried on this living Benedictine tradition.
Got monks? We do, and we're proud of it.
Dr. Cornel West, noted philosopher, political activist, social critic and author, will speak at Saint Vincent College at 8 p.m., Thursday, Oct. 17, in the Fred M. Rogers Center. West's lecture, entitled "The Arts as a Prophetic Witness in Times of Suffering and Despair," is a joint presentation of Saint Vincent College's Threshold Lecture Series and the Ann Kinzer Clark Memorial Lecture Series in association with the Latrobe Area Hospital Charitable Foundation.
West, who holds the title of professor emeritus at Princeton University, has also taught at Union Theological Seminary, Yale University, Harvard University and the University of Paris. He graduated magna cum laude from Harvard in three years, going on to obtain his M.A. and Ph.D. in philosophy from Princeton.
A prominent and provocative democratic intellectual, West has written 20 books and edited 13 others. He is best known for his classics "Race Matters" and "Democracy Matters," as well as his memoir "Brother West: Living and Loving Out Loud."
His most recent book, "Black Prophetic Fire," offers an unflinching look at nineteenth- and twentieth-century African American leaders and their visionary legacies.
West is a frequent guest on CNN, C-SPAN and Democracy Now. He made his film debut in the blockbuster classic "The Matrix." He subsequently appeared in sequels "The Matrix Reloaded" and "The Matrix Revolutions" and was the commentator (with Ken Wilbur) on the official trilogy released in 2004. West has appeared in more than 25 documentaries and films, including "Examined Life," "Call + Response," "Sidewalk" and "Stand."
He has produced three spoken word albums, including "Never Forget," a collaboration with Prince, Jill Scott, Andre 3000, Talib Kweli, KRS-One and the late Gerald Levert. His spoken word interludes are featured on productions by Terence Blanchard, The Cornel West Theory, Raheem DeVaughn and Bootsy Collins.
Admission is free, but reservations are required and may be made by clicking the registration button or calling 724-805-2177.
Saint Vincent College established the Threshold Series in 1981 when the Kennametal Foundation of Latrobe made a substantial grant to the College for the creation of an ongoing series of lectures and cultural events.

Residents are being warned to take extra steps to protect their homes as the nights get darker.
Figures show burglaries go up during September and October as homeowners are caught out by the darker evenings.
Police in Wallsend are now giving out security timers to residents. DCI Frank Gallop, of Wallsend police, said: "If people are going out in the evening and think they might be out for a while, they should leave a light or television on which gives the house signs of life."

Crashing worked for that project because Ms.
Abd Rahman had access to skilled labor. Rather
than scrambling to find resources when the need
arises, practitioners should know before their projects launch what resources will be available if
needed, she says. "Some projects are limited by
resource availability," she says. They might plan to
draw resources from a nearby, related project.
If additional resources aren't an option—or will
balloon the project budget out of bounds—consider
reassessing the existing team. Sangram Dangre, PMP,
deputy manager, Reliance Jio Infocomm, Mumbai,
India, oversaw a project that aimed to provide broadband service to retail customers in 150 sites. It was a
high-profile project for the organization—and it was
one month behind schedule. He undertook a detailed
financial analysis to identify the tasks he could crash
with the smallest effect on the budget.
He also intensified his scrutiny of the project
activities and the project team. "To ensure quality and timely deliverables, we started monitoring
at a micro level and brought activities under the
direct focus of senior management," he says. "We
equally ensured all team members were punctual,
disciplined and serious about the project." Mr.
Dangre didn't just push his team members—he also
rewarded them. "We declared incentives for timely
completion to motivate the team," he says.
Getting Faster
For many project practitioners, fast-tracking trumps
crashing because it doesn't tap into the budget—if
done correctly.

Define an amount of capital in order to protect your family against the economic loss that means death, disability, serious illness or accident; depending on the insurance contracted.
Protection of the patrimony since the taxes of succession represent an important amount that can affect the patrimony.The insured value increases annually with IPC.Tax advantages, because the insured capital that is received in case of the occurrence of the loss is not affected by tax discounts.
The insured capital is unattachable.Life insurance can have additional savings coverage to make your future plans come true.
The amount corresponds to your ability to pay and must be consistent with your income.
The insurance can be paid by depositing in cash or by credit card, automatic debit from the savings or current account of the policyholder and can be paid annually, semiannually, quarterly or monthly.
Semi-annual, quarterly or monthly payments have the surcharge for premium fractionation.
The insurance premium must be paid upon delivery of the policy to start its coverage.
For the payment of premiums or subsequent installments, Global Seguros offers a grace period of one month, counted from the effective date of the invoiced period.
If the premiums or installments of subsequent premiums are not paid before the expiration of the grace period, it will produce the automatic termination of the contract and Global Seguros will be free of all liability for claims that occurred after the expiration of that period.
from the moment the company accepts the insurance risk, and issues the corresponding payment coupon.
Who is the beneficiary of life insurance?
It is the natural person or persons designated by the insured to receive the payment of the insurance in case of occurrence of the event or loss. Only in the case of insurance with an onerous nature may the policyholder designate a legal person.
Can I change my beneficiaries as many times as I want?
Yes, you must send an authenticated letter indicating new beneficiaries, percentage and kinship. Remember that insurable interest must exist, that is to say, that there is a dependency relationship between the policyholder and the beneficiary of life insurance). The policyholder or contracting party can change, add or delete beneficiaries; while your policy is current.
In case of having suffered an illness, can I take life insurance?
You must declare the illnesses that you have suffered, and the company, based on a health declaration that the client must complete, can insure it by charging a premium (premium) or a surcharge (extra-premium) or insuring it with the normal premium for not to consider that it merits a surcharge for the declared illnesses.
Over time, the value of the insurance is diminished?
Our Global Guaranteed Protection insurance has a growth each year of the IPC, so the insured value does not lose value over time.
At what time can I make changes in the insured value, coverage, savings amount or beneficiaries?
During the term of the policy, the policyholder may request in writing the modifications to his policy, which will be valid as of the next annuity of the policy.
Once the application has been studied and accepted, Global Seguros will issue an approval annex of the corresponding amendment.
What should I do if I have to claim a claim to the insurer?
Global Seguros de Vida must be given written notice of the occurrence of the event (death, disability, accident, or serious illness covered, etc.). In accordance with the coverage on which it is being claimed, the necessary documents for its study and / or payment of the claim will be indicated.
What happens if I die abroad?
Life insurance covers once the company accepts the risk and issues the policy without restricting the place of death of the insured.
How to declare the indemnities of life insurance?
The compensations received by a person entitled to life insurance are exempt from the income tax and occasional gain according to article 223 of the tax statute. Additionally, they are exempt from withholding tax.

What makes someone Catholic?
If I had to answer this question a year ago, I probably would have had an answer that came easily. Or I would have just felt more comfortable thinking about the question.
A year ago, my parish still existed. We knew that our diocese was uncomfortable with us, but no action had yet been taken. I spent my mass-going time between the two services at my parish: one that met in the Church and was more traditional, but with important deviations, and one that met in the gym and was more radical. The Church service featured prayers—even for the Eucharist—that parish members had written and lay homilists. The wording for all readings and prayers was carefully chosen. The goal was not just to be inclusive, but also to eliminate overtones of patriarchy. While it felt funny to say things like the "kin-dom" of God, I grew to love the imagery and the meaning conveyed by thinking of us all, around the world, as part of the same kin group.
The Gym service was always a little challenging for me. It was noisier and freer flowing in structure. We all gathered around the altar for the communion prayer, and we all could say parts of it as the Spirit moved us. Moments of each service always touched my heart and soul, but the service never felt completely comfortable to me. In a dark corner of my mind, I was probably always expecting a thunderbolt to come down as a sign of God's (or the Pope's) displeasure.
The thunderbolt did come, but not quite as I expected. The diocese and a newly appointed priest just said that the services needed to conform to the updated General Instruction for the Roman Mass (GIRM). And we mainly just gave in and let them make it a reality. Almost all of the parishioners from the two masses I attended have left. Some have gone on to other parishes and denominations, but many have gone off-site to continue worshipping in the style of the Gym service. Many of us have talked about our grief at having to leave the church and our former parish. Others have rallied, saying that we are that church, no matter where we are.
In early August, the priest sent us a letter saying that we weren't in agreement with the Church if we continued worshipping at the off-site service. He said we should come back, but that he saw no need to change the mass to make the laity more a part of it. I know that the Roman Catholic church has been re-asserting the primacy of the priest and has made steps to "bring back dignity," but it made me sad to see the expendability of the laity so clearly and matter-of-factly stated.
So, if I still believe that the laity has an important place in the mass, and I want to hear these voices in the prayers, readings and homilies at my church, am I no longer Catholic? If I choose to go to a service that honors the decades of theological discourse on the feminine in our God—and changes prayers to reflect that—am I no longer Catholic?
I have often questioned my faith, and I have, over the course of years, determined what I believe and where I differ with the Catholic hierarchy. I thought I would be the kind of person who held on and worked for change from within the structure. But the events of the past year leave me questioning what is left within that structure and leave me heart-broken at the loss. It's not just that my community has been broken apart. It is also the almost daily evidence from parishes and our Roman Catholic leadership that the things I thought were important about Catholicism—the social justice teachings, standing with the outcast, building the peaceable kingdom—are not the most important issues in to our leaders right now. All of this makes me wonder if the Roman Catholic church has room for me. And if it doesn't, then what am I?

Trump Will Be 'Greatly Strengthened' by Orlando Shooting, Says Former Israeli Ambassador to U.S.
'If the motive had been hatred against LGBT community, it would benefit Hillary Clinton. But since it is turning out that the motive is jihadist Islam, it will serve Donald Trump,' says lawmaker Michael Oren.
The Orlando mass shooting, in which at least 50 people were killed and many more were wounded, may leave its mark on the presidential race, a former Israeli ambassador to the U.S. determined.
"If the motive had been hatred against LGBT community, it would benefit Hillary Clinton. But since it is turning out that the motive is jihadist Islam, it will serve Donald Trump. He'll be greatly strengthened by it," said Kulanu MK Michael Oren, who has served as Israel's ambassador to the U.S.
Oren also hinted that he felt Trump hadn't yet taken full political advantage of the situation. "If I was Donald Trump, I would have come out the minute that the FBI started to indicate this morning that we are talking about a guy who was operating from Islamic motivations Just his name alone - "Ameen Seddique" - a Moslem name, the son of Afghan immigrants who apparently maintained connections of some sort to extremist Islamic organizations, that in itself will greatly influence the presidential race."
He noted that in the immediate aftermath of the violence in Orlando, presumptive Democratic nominee Clinton was "sitting on the fence" and "being very careful." He said that she is "condemning but hesitating as to what to condemn" and will likely use the incident to highlight the need for increased gun control.
Oren also predicted in a television interview on Channel 10 that in Orlando, as in Israel, tourism and the local economy would be hurt by the violence.
"Orlando is no San Bernardino, a suburb that nobody heard of. Orlando is a famous city, home to Disney World. There will be tens of thousands of cancellations of Americans there," he predicted. "They will hear the word 'Orlando' and decide it is dangerous and they will be put off."
In his interview, Oren revealed that there is a standing order at the Israeli embassy in Washington as to how to behave when there is mass violence in the U.S.
"There is a standing order between the Israeli embassy in Washington and the Prime Minister's Office that every time there's an incident like this, a letter of consolation goes out immediately and there is a conversation between the prime minister and the president."
Several Israeli politicians sent condolences and messages of support to Orlando through statements and posts on social media.

A Broken Thing: Poets on the Line by Emily Rosko, Anton Vander Zee
By Emily Rosko, Anton Vander Zee
In the sector of poetry and poetics over the last century, no thought has been extra alive and contentious than the assumption of shape, and no point of shape has extra emphatically subsidized this marked formal trouble than the road. yet what, precisely, is the road? Emily Rosko and Anton Vander Zee's anthology supplies seventy unique solutions that lead us deeper into the area of poetry, but additionally some distance out into the realm at huge: its humans, its politics, its ecology. The authors incorporated the following, rising and validated alike, write from various views, when it comes to either aesthetics and identification. jointly, they give a dynamic hybrid assortment that captures a large spectrum of poetic perform within the twenty-first century. Rosko and Vander Zee's advent deals a beneficiant evaluate of conversations concerning the line from the Romantics ahead. We come to work out how the road could be an engine for beliefs of progress—political, moral, or differently. For a few poets, the road touches upon the main primary questions of data and life. greater than ever, the road is the novel opposed to which even trade and rising poetic varieties that foreground the visible or the auditory, the web page or the display, will be unusual and understood. From the beginning, a unique lesson emerges: traces don't shape which means exclusively of their brevity or their size, of their changing into or their brokenness; strains dwell in and during the descriptions we provide them. certainly, the heritage of yankee poetry within the 20th century can be instructed by way of the compounding, and sometimes confounding, discussions of its strains. A damaged factor either displays upon and extends this background, charting a wealthy diffusion of conception and perform into the twenty-first century with the main assorted, wide-ranging and fascinating set of essays up to now at the line in poetry, revealing how poems paintings and why poetry keeps to subject.

By Shelley, Percy Bysshe; Shelley, Percy Bysshe; Peterfreund, Stuart
Ambitious in its scope, Shelley between Others: The Play of the Intertext and the assumption of Language is a entire analyzing of Shelley's oeuvre throughout the lens of modern advancements in literary and psychoanalytic conception. Stuart Peterfreund not just presents thought-provoking readings of recognized works but additionally explores much less normal items to light up their dating to Shelley's constantly evolving conceptions of language, energy, and the position of poetry in society.
Peterfreund proposes that there's an intimate connection among Shelley's refined figuring out of metaphor and his radical politics, and that this connection animates his complete poetic occupation, making attainable a finished exegesis of his paintings and improvement. In masterful shut readings, he contextualizes this figuring out as a discussion ("intertext") that Shelley includes on with precursors and contemporaries, either in his theoretical writings (with Vico and Rousseau, for example) and his poetry (with Wordsworth, Milton, and Shakespeare, between others). The political measurement of Shelley's inspiration is grounded via frequently startling connections among his poems and the debates, occasions, and personalities of the time, and Peterfreund takes care to attach the speculation of language which Shelley's paintings articulates with present-day literary conception, relatively within the writings of Lacan and Kristeva.

Exquisite Masochism: Marriage, Sex, and the Novel Form by Claire Jarvis
By Claire Jarvis
How did realist novelists within the 19th and early 20th centuries trace at intercourse whereas conserving a secure distance from pornography? Metaphors helped: waves, oceans, blooms, and illuminations have been all deployed in first rate realist novels to allude to the sexual act, permitting writers to painting companionate marriage whereas keeping off photo description. yet in beautiful Masochism, Claire Jarvis argues that a few Victorian novelists went even additional, pushing formal barriers through slyly constructing scenes of displaced erotic wish to recommend impropriety, perversion, and danger.
Through shut readings of canonical works by means of Emily Brontë, Anthony Trollope, Thomas Hardy, and a modernist outlier, D. H. Lawrence, Jarvis finds how writers' diversified use of particular personality types—the dominant lady and the submissive man—in conjunction with decadent, descriptive scenes of sexual refusal creates a robust counter-narrative hinting at relationships past patriarchal and companionate marriage constructions. through concentrating on the exquisitely masochistic excitement led to by way of freezing, or postponing, the sexual cost, and through depicting quasi-contractual states at the outer edge of marriage, together with engagement, adultery, and widowhood, novelists disrupted the wedding plot's insistence that erotic drives stay unfulfilled and that sexual connection can be chuffed in simple terms via genital act.
Complicating our realizing of Victorian marriage ideology's extra well-trodden concentrate on a effective, nation-building perfect, beautiful Masochism deals attention-grabbing perception into our personal culture's debates round illicit sexuality, marriage, replica, and feminism.

The Polemics of Possession in Spanish American Narrative by Rolena Adorno
By Rolena Adorno
In this ebook on early Latin American narrative, Rolena Adorno argues that the center of the Spanish American literary culture involves the writings within which the rights to Spanish dominion within the Americas and the remedy of its natives have been debated. She areas the works of canonical Spanish and Amerindian writers of the 16th and 17th centuries inside this higher polemic and exhibits how their works sought credibility in the narrative method itself, instead of within the irretrievable ancient occasions that lay outdoor it.
The triumph of the narrative mode over old content material is extra printed in Adorno's demonstration of the way those authors and their old protagonists were polemically reinvented as much as the current day. Adorno lines the elaboration and patience of colonial-era debates forged in narrative shape to reach at a brand new knowing of the function the polemics of ownership" performs within the background of Latin American literature and thought.
Steinbeck and the Environment: Interdisciplinary Approaches by Susan F. Beegel
By Susan F. Beegel
This interdisciplinary choice of essays explores in-depth a subject matter formerly overlooked by means of scholars: John Steinbeck's early carrying on with preoccupation with ecology and marine biology and the impact of that curiosity on his writings. Written by way of students from numerous disciplines, the essays supply a dynamic contribution to the research of John Steinbeck through contemplating his writings from an environmental perspective. They demonstrate Steinbeck as a prophet that used to be sooner than his time and supremely appropriate to our personal.

I have really taken a liking to Alexandra Samuel's blog posts on social media.
Perhaps that is just because I have been secretly dying for someone with some authority (Alexandra is of course a social media expert and founder of Social Signal) to tell me "Don't Keep Up With Social Technology"!
But in all fairness to myself, I am very interested in social media, I just get overwhelmed by all that is new and the growing number of open channels. So more than permission not to get involved, I appreciate and respond to Alexandra's understanding and reason.
An excerpt from Alexandra's post:
"This year it's Twitter. Last year it was Facebook. The year before it was Second Life. Zoom down from the technologies making headlines and you'll find a much longer list of must-join networks and must-have tools…There is no hope…You can't keep up…And that's great news.
Keeping up is about following someone else's agenda: the bloggers and tweeters who trot out invitations to the latest beta. The marketers, publicists and journalists who blanket us with coverage about the latest hot tech phenomenon. And yes, the tech consultants who charge tens or hundreds of thousands to add new musts to your already long to-do list.
The minute you stop trying to keep up, you open a far more exciting possibility: getting ahead with what matters to you, your team and your business."
Yes, thank you. A call to focus on what is important to me and permission not to worry about 'keeping up'.
In another post, Alexandra discusses Three Instantly Effective Social Media Ideas.
What I liked about these suggestions was the format in which they were presented. Each idea is described (i.e. a suggestion box), punctuated by examples of actual companies who use the technology, and then given the following breakdown of advice: How to do it; Where to spend; Where to save; Where to get help.
It is clear to me that Alexandra is operating from a place of tremendous knowledge but is quite capable of speaking succinctly to novices like myself. The advice anticipates a small business owner's fears and concerns and quickly focuses on what you really need to know.
It is always a welcome pleasure for me to find a good, steady, reason voice amidst the social media storm. I have learned about wonderful resources and tips (like how to properly use Facebook friend lists) from Marci Alboher and received terrific advice from folks such as Katie Hellmuth (who advised to pick one or two times a year to mess around in the social media world and try something new, and otherwise do the best you can and not let it distract you from your bottom-line business activities).
Should you be interesting in keeping up with or boning up on the latest it social media tool – Twitter – a fantastic and equally reasoned and practical resource is the newly released Twitter Book, written by Tim O'Reilly and Sarah Milstein, who so graciously donated a copy to the In Good Company Resource Library.

text: If there is one thing that is constant, it is "change". And change is exactly the one thing that is constant when it comes to fashion. Since the beginning of human civilization, there has been a constant effort being put to make one look better. The different styles in fashion have always gone through innumerable changes. With the increase in the amount of innovations, the change in trend and fashion styles have also been rapid. So keeping that in mind, here is the list of a few fashion styles that we accepted with all our hearts:

Well, after the best hours worth of tv to come out of Television Centre in many years, I think that could be said to have been useful. The BNP must be held up to ridicule for its attitudes, policies and outright racism, and I think the BBC was right to do so.
No platform policies do not work. It didn't work when the UK government tried to suppress Sinn Fein by barring their leaders from being heard. It doesn't work in Trade Unions when the central heirarchy tries to suppress factions and groups: they just keep coming and getting bigger. If you aren't allowed to talk about it, people instinctively want to talk about it, and censoring the BNP will just make them (a) more interesting and (b) able to play the martyr card.
From experience talking to people its quite surprising how many don't realise exactly what the BNP stand for, they just see the "no to foreigners" or "british jobs for the brits" etc and tick the box. A lot of people didn't realise what the NSDAP stood for in the early thirties, if you look at their manifesto (such as it was), the vast majority of their policies seemed reasonable to a people suffering from economic catasrophe (ring any bells). Indeed, some of their policies would not be unpalatable to those of us on the left (nationalisation and increasing the old age pension being two of them). If all that people get told is what appeals to them, they'll vote for what sounds good.
What we have to do is make sure that the vast majority of decent people in this country don't get conned and vote for them, in the way the German people did in 1933, because they have a facade of reasonableness...and I think we're doing well on that front. However, I think we can do better, and the various anti-fascist movements (why can there never just be one group opposing someone, its not like its the Peoples Front of Judea for crying out loud) need to change tactic. "Denying the BNP the oxygen of publicity" won't get us anywhere, we need to engage them in public debate (although the demos are still a good thing) and make sure people know how vicious they are.
It would also help if there was someone we could tell them to vote for instead. None of the main parties are particularly palatable at the moment, anyone got any suggestions?

Southeastern Arizona is home to a unique geological phenomenon called the sky islands. Basically, there are several isolated mountain ranges throughout SE Arizona. The more notable ranges include the Chiricahua, Huachuca, and Santa Rita mountains. These ranges are also home to many unique birds of the United States that can only be found in SE Arizona. Some of these unique species can be found in SW New Mexico, and certain parts of Texas, as well, such as the varied bunting. Some are quite common here, while others are very rare and are not found every year. Through my travels and work here, I've been fortunate to see and even photograph some of the rare and endemic species. Most notable are two particularly rare birds that I saw at the Ramsey Canyon Preserve near Sierra Vista: the flame-colored tanager and tufted flycatcher. Birders from all over the country are traveling to see these two species, who both seem to be nesting in the canyon. Here are some ok pictures of them:
In addition to those species, I was able to find several others, including many lifers for me, such as the elegant trogon, thick-billed kingbird, varied bunting, Arizona woodpecker, magnificent hummingbird, northern beardless-tyrannulet, sulphur-bellied flycatcher, Mexican jay, red-faced warbler, Botteri's sparrow, Montezuma's quail, and scaled quail. Here are some pictures of these birds I've seen.
In addition to searching for black-chinned hummingbirds at the Audubon Research Ranch, I'm also conducting my work at The Nature Conservancy Sonoita-Patagonia Creek Preserve. While this place is less than an hour drive away, it is fairly different from the ranch. The preserve is a rich and lush riparian area, surround by a mesquite filled semi-arid environment.
You can easily find multiple hummingbird species here, which makes things a bit more complicated, but there are plenty of black-chinned hummingbirds going to the feeders they have established here. I've only scouted here a few times, but I'm excited to continue to work here, because the overall bird diversity is great! Last time I went, I saw over 50 species, including a varied bunting and thick-billed kingbird.
The start of this blog also coincides with the start of my current field season. I am studying black-chinned hummingbirds at the Audubon Appleton-Whittell Research Ranch. I first need to say that this ranch is not open to the public, however if you are interested in visiting please contact the ranch staff (link). With that said, this place is amazing! It is a grassland littered with canyons and riparian areas (the land around running or dried up creeks and streams). Here are some pictures of the land and the different habitats I'm exploring.
I've been focusing on the canyons and riparian areas to find my hummingbirds. I usually find males perching on a bare tree top, keeping watch on their territories (left). However, many of the trees these males have been choosing are in some tough to reach spots, like along the ridges of long canyons. I've only found a few males so far, but as I learn the lay of the land and speak to bird experts in the area, I expect to have much more success. In addition to finding hummingbirds, I'm finding so many other animals, including several species of birds, a plethora of deer, many lizards and snakes, and some interesting insects. I'm very excited to continue to explore this area and do my work here as it is such a beautiful place and full of interesting creatures!
As I mentioned, I am a Ph.D. student at Arizona State University. I am getting my Ph.D. in animal behavior, and I am finishing up my third year. I have been doing biological research for seven years at this point, as I started doing research my first summer at college (2009). Its been quite a journey for me, that has lead me from cancer research, to ecological modeling, and finally to studying behavior in the field.
I have always loved being outside and exploring the natural world. When I was young, my family traveled a lot, especially in the western half of the US, visiting a plethora of national and state parks. Two of my most memorable experiences were visiting Glacier National Park and a month-long trip we took to drive to Alaska, where I was able to see a huge variety of environments and wildlife. I have also spent considerable amounts of time in the South, such as in some of the beautiful old-growth forests and black-water swamps of South Carolina. As an adult, I continue to explore our natural world, both for fun and for my job! My research has taken me to many places around the world, including Canada, Panama, and Japan. I have worked with a reasonable diversity of animals, though most of my work has been on birds. I have also contacted some work on mice and rats, grasshoppers, and beetles.
As I am in my 3rd year of my Ph.D., I am in the midst of my work for my dissertation. I am studying hummingbirds, and specifically I am exploring the evolutionary relationships between their colorful plumage and display behaviors during courtship (see here for more information). The vast majority of my work is conducted in the field, which I very much so prefer. I love studying animals in their natural habitats. Through my field work, I not only learn a ton about the organisms I study, but I also learn a lot about the areas I conduct my work in and all the other life that inhabits it. Because I spend day after day for fairly long stretches of time at one field site, I am able to witness some of the rarer animal occurrences. For instance, while at some of my field sites in southern Arizona, I have seen rock and Arizona black rattlesnakes:
Outside of my research, I enjoy hiking, camping, and various other outdoor activities, as you will see through this blog. My current goal for the duration of my tenure at ASU, is to visit every wilderness area in the state. There are 90 wilderness areas in Arizona (check them out here), which vary in size and remoteness. So far, I've only been two 9 of them, so I have a long way to go! I will make sure to write a post about each one as I visit them, and I will write about the ones I have already visited as well.
Hello everyone and welcome to my blog! To those who have followed some of my previous blog attempts – welcome back! My name is Rick Simpson, and I am finishing my 3rd year of my Ph.D. at Arizona State University. Through this blog, I plan to share my thoughts, opinions, and stories on a variety of topics, such as life as a graduate student, my travels across Arizona and elsewhere, and my research experiences. I may also write about and discuss cool and interesting papers as they arise. Additionally, because I am interested in colorful and exaggerated visual traits in animals, I will be posting as many pictures and other visual media as possible throughout my posts. Some posts will be long, while others will be short. In some, I might rant about something that bothers me, but I will keep that to a minimum. Ultimately, I hope that this blog will be both entertaining and informative! Finally, please give me feedback as I go, so that I can continue to improve.

The Central Weather Bureau was scheduled to issue a sea alert late last night for Typhoon Meranti, which is threatening southern Taiwan, and it could not rule out the possibility of issuing a land alert this morning.
Meranti picked up strength at about 2pm yesterday, when its center was 1,000km southeast of Oluanpi (鵝鑾鼻), the southernmost tip of Taiwan proper, and was moving northwest toward the coast of the Hengchun Peninsula at 22kph, the bureau said.
With a radius of 200km, the storm was packing maximum sustained winds of about 183.6kph and gusts of up to 226.8kph, bureau data show.
The typhoon's circumfluence could affect the weather in Taiwan today, with chances of showers being high in eastern, northern and southern regions as well as the mountainous area in the center of the nation, forecaster Lin Ding-yi (林定宜) said.
Heavy rain is expected tonight, but the nation would feel Meranti's effects more strongly tomorrow and Thursday morning, particularly residents in southern and eastern Taiwan, he said.
Based on the bureau's projected path for Meranti, the typhoon's eye would probably not make landfall in Taiwan.
However, it would pass through the sea very close to the southwest coast of the Hengchun Peninsula before moving west toward China.
The Maritime Port Bureau said that 28 shipping services are scheduled to be canceled today and tomorrow, with most of them operating off the east coast between Orchid Island (蘭嶼, also known as Lanyu) and Green Island (綠島).
In addition, a charter ship service between Taichung and Kinmen County, scheduled for 11pm tomorrow, will be canceled, the Kinmen County government said.
National Dong Hwa University in Hualien County also announced yesterday that tomorrow's classes will be canceled, while administrative staff will not have to work past noon.
Apart from Meranti, there are two tropical depressions that have the potential of turning into tropical storms, the bureau said.
One is located near the Spratly Islands (Nansha Islands, 南沙群島) and is moving northwest at 15kph, the bureau said. That depression is forecast to move toward Indochina after turning into a tropical storm and is less likely to affect Taiwan, it said.
The path of the other depression, which was west of Guam and moving northwest at 20kph, would have to be determined after further observation, as it is still about 2,000km from Taiwan, the bureau said.

Aunti Meme
-Playgrounds everywhere
I posted late yesterday, but go back and help me with my hems.
So, you may have noticed that I'm not all about memes. But this one is actually about knitting (and knitting blogs) and is just a rocking good time.
Check out the rules at Jen and La, and then join in - they've tagged the whole world.
1. A blog which you think people have not discovered: Twin Knit
Jennie in Appalachia has cool knitting that she displays against a backdrop of moutains and waterfalls and other gorgeousness . . . and she also has a really cool life. She goes contra dancing and buys cakes in decorated boxes.
2. A blog whose author lives close to you physically. Just get as close as you can, it's all relative: Silver Arrow Knits.
I got a really fun email a couple of weeks ago from a college friend. She was at work (at the hospital where I spend too much time) and surfing knitting blogs instead of working . . . and she surfed onto mine and realized that we knew each other. I didn't even know she knit - how fun is that?
3. An unusual or weird animal picture: None.
I feel morally obliged to sit this one out. There are plenty out there without me calling attention to them.
4. An entry that made you laugh and got you strange looks from family or co-workers: Oscar Knit at Knit and Plenty.
Check out this spoof on the Oscars - "Good Knit and Good Luck," "Stash," and "Berocco Mountain" are all competing for honors. Too funny.
5. An idea you wish you'd thought of: The Knitting Olympics.
It opened up a whole world of competitive knitting to me. I love it.
6. Something you'd like to knit: Everything at Have sticks, will travel . . .
I'm giving you the general link to Marina's blog instead of to a specific post, because it's guaranteed to be something phenomenal, and probably involving stranded colorwork. This woman is amazing - every post involves not one but three different works of art in progress. I feel so inadequate.
7. A picture of something you consider beautiful: Frost Flowers Shawl by See Eunny Knit!
This has been in the back of my mind for a while, but the seafoam green (the color of my mom's bridesmaids' dresses) in the pattern doesn't come close to Eunny's deep claret version. This also qualifies for "Something I'd like to knit," but the photos are also just stunning.
8. A blog whose author you'd like to one day meet in person: Knit 'n Lit.
There are so many bloggers I'd love to meet in person, but Jenn and I came soclose to meeting a week or so ago that now I feel cheated.
And I'd be remiss if I didn't mention A Little Loopy.
I'm moving to San Diego this June, but I've been living vicariously through their blogs until then. They went skiing recently and wore sweaters - doesn't that sound promising?
9. A blog of someone you have already met in person: Lickety Knit.
Proof that technology can bring us together: I met Rachel when she found Team College Hill and quickly became a star addition. The good times have continued - last week we got together at her house and knit while her husband and his band played their acoustic stringed instruments downstairs. See how much better my life is because of Rachel?
And because I need two for this one: Med Student Who Knits.
Kristin and I met at a Yarn Harlot book signing last year, and it turns out we have lots in common. Like we're med students. And we knit. (She stole the title first.) We have big plans to meet up again soon.

The Angel of Light
by Berni Dymet
2 Cor. 11:13-15 For such boasters are false apostles, deceitful workers, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. And no wonder! Even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. So it is not strange if his ministers also disguise themselves as ministers of righteousness. Their end will match their deeds.
This world is full of so many seductive trinkets. There are so many people out there to tell us what we want to hear. The easiest thing in the world is to imagine that all God wants for us, is to be immersed in all these trinkets.
I mean - why wouldn't He? There are even some preachers who tell you it's true!
A thousand years ago the Apostle Paul spoke about this deception. He said - "Even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light!"
Is there anything wrong with having some nice things? Not per se … until we put them ahead of God. Until serving them becomes more important than serving God. Until they grip us so tight, we can't let it go when God asks us to.
Last time I checked - Jesus gave all that He was and all that He had … for you and me. Everything. And that's what He wants from you and from me.
So beware. Beware the angel of light.
Here's a vital question for you to consider: If you died tonight, would you be ready for eternity? Now, many people know that it's all about having a simple faith in Jesus Christ. Nothing more, nothing less. But … do you have the sort of faith that Jesus talked about? To help you answer that question for sure, that's what our latest Life Application Booklet is all about: Three Things I Absolutely Must Do Before I Die. We would absolutely love to send you your very own FREE copy to help you make sure that you have the right answer, to the most important question of all.

Society's Child
'Our worst nightmare': Kentucky Mayor calls in FBI after police officers accused of rape and sexual abuse of children
The Free Thought Project
Sun, 19 Mar 2017 00:00 UTC
"If there has been an injustice," asserted the mayor, "it will be remedied."
A previous probe into the accusations by the Louisville Metro Police will also be subject to inquiry by former U.S. Attorney Kerry Harvey, whom Fischer hired to determine whether "errors were made" — including by top cop, Police Chief Steve Conrad.
"The allegations surrounding the Explorer program, if true, represent unacceptable conduct involving children, and the citizens of Louisville deserve to know what happened," Harvey avowed.
Saying the FBI would have to determine whether or not to answer the call to investigate, Harvey surmised from news reports the allegations might constitute a federal violation of civil rights.
According to local NBC affiliate LEX18, "A lawsuit filed on behalf of a participant in the Youth Explorer program charges that his alleged rape by Officers Kenneth Betts and Brandon Wood was 'concealed' by department officials. Betts and Wood are accused of sexually assaulting the participant from 2011 through 2013 and recording the incidents to make pornography."
David Yates, an attorney for the victim, noted the allegations — the now-22-year-old victim says officers used their position of authority to engage him in sexual acts when he was under the age of 18 — constitute third-degree statutory rape.
Betts had also been under investigation for alleged "improper contact" with a teenaged girl in the Explorer program — until Conrad ended it upon the officer's resignation in 2014. Alarmingly, given the nature of the allegations, Wood remains active on the force, albeit in a limited, administrative capacity.
Conrad reportedly said he's "dying" to discuss the case publicly, but has been barred from doing so by a court order sealing the lawsuit. Both the City of Louisville and the Courier-Journal have filed requests to unseal the case, which Fischer predicts will occur next week.
"Obviously I called for all the case to be unsealed so all the facts can be known on this," said the mayor, who also termed the allegations "appalling." "So to me it's all about transparency and accountability. So I'm looking at all kind of options here."
Unsealing the lawsuit, in this case, comes with mitigating circumstances — particularly given the age of the victim at the time of the alleged rapes.
"Yates said he doesn't oppose unsealing the lawsuit as long as anything that identifies the victim is blacked out," WAVE3 reports. "But Yates also said unsealing the lawsuit is not a simple process because all parties need to agree to it being unsealed, including LMPD Major Curtis Flaherty, who is being accused of failing to prevent the abuse from happening."
With heightened attention given to the multi-pronged Youth Explorer investigation, the mayor faltered a bit when asked whether he retained confidence in the police chief, saying, "what is important is to get to the truth, and I think he agrees with that" — but ultimately backed Conrad.
David James, James Peden, and nine other council members had called for an outside agency to take up the investigation. James contended the probe must expand far beyond law enforcement, particularly as former police commanders now populate Fischer's administration.
"It's important we not just limit it to the police department, but knowing who knew what when, and wherever that goes is important," James asserted, according to the Courier-Journal.
Pleased Fischer had turned to the FBI for assistance, Peden nonetheless expressed ambivalence toward Harvey's involvement — and questioned the cost of bringing on board a former U.S. Attorney.
"I've been doing this long enough to know if you hire someone to do studies or investigate, they come up with results you wanted them to find in the first place," the councilman remarked. "I think that's a waste of money."
According to the Courier-Journal, both James and Peden discussed the Youth Explorer program with Chief Conrad weeks before the filing of the lawsuit, and — based on information from within the police department — further allegations are likely.
In the meantime, one former officer accused of raping a minor boy walks completely free of punishment — as if rescinding the uniform, badge, and gun of the State absolves an individual of responsibility for any abhorrent behavior occurring on the taxpayer's dime.
Worse, the second cop remains a paid and active employee — again, thanks to the taxpayers — though, granted, whatever the desk work, it likely won't put him in direct contact with children.
The FBI has not yet given a statement in answer to the mayor's request.
With the unsealing of the lawsuit anticipated as early as next week, this explosive case appears poised to bring the Louisville Metro Police under a piercing microscope. Peden noted,
"If anything, [Mayor Fischer] finally realizes this has now extended beyond the boundaries of just a bad police officer."

10 Original Xbox Games We Want Backward Compatible
November 10, 2017 - From Red Dead Revolver to Jade Empire, here are the OG Xbox games we'd love to see return.
Burnout Spiritual Successor Coming from Criterion Founders
October 2, 2015 - But first, a "multiplayer sports game" early next year.
The History of Racing Games
September 4, 2015 - From Gran Trak 10 to Forza Motorsport 6, we present the definitive line-up of racers from past to present.
Why Burnout 3 Is Still the Most Perfect Arcade Racer Ever Conceived
April 28, 2015 - Over 10 years later, why does Burnout 3 remain the arcade racer against which all others are judged?
Criterion Games Co-Founders Leave Studio
January 3, 2014 - EA has confirmed that two of the co-founders behind the studio that brought us Burnout and Need for Speed: Most Wanted have moved on.
Gamer Memories: Burnout 3: Takedown
January 7, 2010 - I'm not a fan of racing games. Sure, they're pretty, but drooling over virtual versions of real-life vehicles has never revved my engine. So back in the summer of 2004 when I was working at the Official U.S. PlayStation Magazine, I didn't pay much attention when a demo disc of Burnout 3: Takedown showed up in our office.
The Top 25 PS2 Games of All Time
August 10, 2009 - It's hard to believe that the era of PlayStation 3 is already here. It seems like only yesterday that we were standing in exceedingly long Wal-Mart lines so that we could be the first guys on our blocks to own the PlayStation 2. Who could forget the months of pre-release anticipation as we waited for "Pixar-quality graphics, full backwards compatibility," and a "hard drive attachment that would transform your PS2 into a full-fledged multimedia device?" Hell, Sony's second system was so damned powerful that it couldn't even be sold in certain far-off countries! After all, it could have been used to launch an end-of-days nuclear strike on our friendly and unsuspecting game-playing nations.
The Greatest Gameplay of All-Time: Part 2
April 17, 2009 - Welcome to Part 2 of our Greatest Gameplay of All-Time feature. In Part 1 we looked at PlayStation Saturn and N64, but now we're moving on a generation to Dreamcast, PS2, Xbox and GameCube.
The Wednesday 10: Needs More Zombies
March 11, 2009 - Thanks to new Mortenex, a drug regimen from pharmaceutical giant DynaRac, zombies all around the world are slowly regaining higher brain functions. Many of us can now read, speak, operate heavy machinery, and draft state-level legislation. Since I have shown the most promise of the subjects in Test Batch 32-C, DynaRac has kindly loaned me to IGN for a week to help around the office as proof that integration between the living and the formerly expired is completely safe.
Top 25 PS2 Games
November 14, 2008 - Trying to come up with just about any ranked list of games for the PlayStation 2 when it's enjoyed such ridiculous success has to pass for cruel and unusual punishment. It's not so much that we couldn't come up with 25 games -- that much was cake -- it was having to plug them into the ranking. As with all lists of this nature, it's going to come down to personal preference. Sports gamers, for instance, are obviously going to throw quite a few more of their favorites on the list. Likewise, RPG nuts have been uncommonly blessed with some wonderful examples of the genre.
Top 10 Racing Games: PS2 Edition
September 9, 2005 - A lot of the IGN Entertainment channels have been running "Top 10" lists lately, and we here at IGN Cars don't wanna be left out. However, we had a bit of a hard time racking our brains trying to figure out what subject would be worthy of a "Top 10" feature. Thoughts of "Top 10 Cars with Fins" and "Top 10 Hood Ornaments" features danced through our heads. But how would those subjects relate to IGN? They don't, so we were stumped.
Now Playing in Japan
October 18, 2004 - Are you a big import gamer? Did you shout out an orgasmic cheer when you first touched the impressive Mawaru Made in Wario Japanese packaging? Then you've followed the right link! This weekly section on IGN will keep you up to date on what games were released over the previous week in Japan. If you want to stay on top of the import scene, be sure and check back every week.
As If You Needed a Burnout 3 Excuse
October 14, 2004 - But just in case you needed the extra nudge to get that Burnout disc back in your console and start racing online, Electronic Arts is providing two reasons to do so.
Game of the Month: September 2004
October 1, 2004 - With all the videogames that are released each and every month, it can be quite a difficult task to decide which title to spend your hard-earned money on. Granted you could go by our review scores alone and weed through the long list of names to find something that scored high or low, but what if you had somewhere else to turn? Rather than wait until the end of the year like for our big award blowout, your incredibly masculine friends at IGN.com have decided to employ a monthly tribute to the weeks that were. We're resolved to illustrate to our readers what we thought was the very best game for each system over the past month, and tell you the reason why.
Burnout 3: Takedown
September 11, 2004 - Criterion's Burnout 3 for PlayStation 2 and Xbox is one of the most satisfying arcade racers in years. It's also one of the most beautiful. So when we set out to deliver our faithful Insiders the video review, we took great care to preserve the same high-quality standards put into to the game. The result is our widescreen, high-bitrate production, which keeps up with the intense framerate and non-stop action. In this video review, Insider editor-in-chief, Fran Miraella, delivers all his final opinions on the game with nearly nine-minutes of accompanying 16:9 direct-feed. You'd have to be crazy not to download this. Well, perhaps more crazy than usual, anyway.
Burnout 3 Scores
September 9, 2004 - Released earlier this week, Burnout 3: Takedown has quickly become the new racing favorite of both enthusiast press and the general gaming public. Based on international press and reader opinions compiled by our friends over at GameStats.com, Burnout 3 has nabbed the #3 slot on the PS2 and Xbox top lists, with an average score of 9.5 and 9.4, respectively. This makes the PS2 version the 12th highest rated game of all time on the site (out of 27,000), with the Xbox version following close behind on rank 36.
Burnout 3: Takedown Head-to-Head
September 8, 2004 - In every respect, Burnout 3 just isn't the franchise it used to be. This is good news, though. Developer Criterion Games has the number-one publisher, Electronic Arts, backing its efforts, which have yielded one of the most impressive arcade racers ever. Burnout 3 is also not available GameCube (with no announced plans), while it's releasing simultaneously on PlayStation 2 and Xbox. This is in contrast to Burnout 2, which debuted on the PlayStation 2 and later hit GameCube and, finally, Xbox (as a Director's Cut with extra features). You've got to be wondering then, how did the team handle PlayStation 2 and Xbox? You may be surprised that the differences are not so obvious or clear-cut in every respect. If you want to clear the fog on the long road that is your inevitable purchase of this masterwork racer, read on.
Burnout 3 Ships
September 8, 2004 - Electronic Arts sent out official word today confirming what most readers will already know: Burnout 3: Takedown has been released to retail.
Burnout 3: Takedown
September 2, 2004 - You have never played a racer like Burnout 3: Takedown, and it would be an absolute crime if you went on living that way. Criterion's relentless ambitions for its arcade-inspired franchise, combined with Electronic Arts' steadfast production values, have paved the way for a true breakthrough in the amped-up racing genre. Burnout 3 offers up insane speed, unequaled crash sequences, and a truly new style of gameplay. It has reinvented the wheel, so to speak. We do not hesitate to say, then, that this is one of the best games -- not just of 2004 -- but of this generation.
Roundtable #123: Beer Here!
August 31, 2004 - Few things go as well with great gaming as a good beer. Or maybe even a bad beer. It's all subjective anyway. So, in this latest roundtable, for our fellow beer fanatics, we ask our editors: "What brews do you like to kick back to? What are some of your favorites, and for our legally-aged readers, do you have any recommendations? We spill it here; our thoughts, that is...

Adding Question Sets to a Test in Blackboard
Adding Question Sets to a Test in Blackboard
Question sets can pull from Pools and other tests in the online course. Question sets can have a set number of questions randomly chosen to each time a student takes a test. For example a question set can have 25 questions in the set but display a different group of 10 to each individual student.
Adding Question Sets: Reuse and Create a Question
On the Test Canvas, click on the Reuse Question option and then Create Question Set
A new window will open to select the questions to add to the questions set. The left-hand column, "Browse Criteria" will give options to choose where the questions will come from or what type of questions to use. Question Sets allow questions to be used from Pools or other Tests in the course. Questions can also be searched by type (multiple choice, true/false, matching, etc.), category, topics, level of difficulty or by keyword. You can select multiple criteria at once. The questions that fit the criteria will appear on the right-hand side of the window.
Selecting (placing a check) next to a question will add it to the set. The icon with the two boxes will display the question, the answer, and where the question is currently being used.
As questions are selected, the bottom of the window will show a count of the questions. The box appearing to the right of the number will show a list of these questions. When all of the questions are selected, click Submit.
The question set then gets added to the test canvas. "Number of Questions to display" gives the option to choose how many of the total questions of the set to show to users. Click on the number in the box, add the number to display and click Submit. In this example 10 random questions from the 16 selected will appear to each user taking the test.
Clicking on the link "Questions in the Set" will display all questions. Click on the Add Questions button to open the Create Question Set window and select more questions to add (if the same question is selected again, it will not duplicate the question in the set). To remove questions from the set, select the questions and then click the button, Remove Questions. Question Display will give two options: Truncated, which will show the questions in a minimized view and Full Text, which displays the full question text.
On the test canvas, to change the point total for the individual questions in the set, to the right of the Question Set, click the number in the "Points per question" box to add the point value. The Total Points will show the amount total for the Question Set.
