UTSA faculty endowments are the gifts that keep on giving
(Nov. 13, 2009)--Some gifts really do keep on giving. That's especially true in the case of endowed faculty positions at growing universities such as UTSA. Established through gifts ranging from $250,000 to $2 million, these faculty endowments help recruit and retain renowned scholars, researchers, teachers and artists at UTSA.
"The real benefit to having these positions is our ability to attract the very best faculty," said John Frederick, UTSA provost and vice president for academic affairs. "They provide a special environment for our students and as nationally recognized scholars, mentor their colleagues by promoting new and innovative ways of doing things."
At UTSA, 36 faculty, or more than 6 percent of tenured faculty, hold special titles ranging from "endowed professorship" to "distinguished university chair." Established by generous donors, these positions allow faculty to extend the reach of their scholarly expertise in a variety of creative and useful ways and elevate UTSA's recognition in both academic and professional circles.
>> Watch UTSA Today for a series of Spotlight stories about how six faculty members in various colleges are putting their unrestricted endowment funds to use. **
These activities include supporting undergraduate or graduate student research, developing and hosting scholarly conferences, purchasing key research equipment, presenting research in progress at scholarly conferences, and supporting the endowed professor's own research and professional outreach.
You'll also hear from the donors themselves -- through comments on the lasting value of their gifts -- which in many cases were made in honor of loved ones. Endowments may be established for existing faculty or to recruit new senior faculty to campus, according to Frederick. Regardless, each endowment acts to establish a legacy of learning that lasts for generations.
Establishing a new faculty endowment is a little bit like matchmaking. "We try to match what donors are passionate about with things that are very active areas of interest for the university," Frederick said. "When it works, it's wonderful."
As the chief academic officer of the university, Frederick notes that faculty endowments play a key role in university's plans for growth and development. And he thinks it's an area where donors can feel especially gratified.
"I think people feel good about having a significant role in successfully bringing a key person to an institution," Frederick said. "If you want to do something that's going to have a wide-ranging impact over a number of years, then bringing in a scholar who is very strong and has the ability to influence or attract others -- that's a pretty big impact."
The UTSA Today series will offer a snapshot of UTSA endowments at work with articles on these six faculty members:
- Mauli Agrawal (Engineering), David and Jennifer Spencer Distinguished Chair for the Dean of Engineering
- Dana Forgione (Business), Janey S. Briscoe Endowed Chair in Business

Interfaith Work Remains Important to Protect Religious Minorities
by John Bryson Chane
from The Washington Post
As Egyptians come to terms with the near-sweep of the Muslim Brotherhood in their new government, no one is more apprehensive of what this new government means than Egypt's minority Christian population. The new president, Mohamed Morsi, has promised protection for minorities, but Coptic Christians in Egypt are still nervous about the future. And they are not alone. In countries across the Middle East, life for religious minorities is often uncertain; and as the violence of the Arab Spring continues, these groups remain at risk of persecution and discrimination.
But a gathering of Christian and Muslim faith leaders in Beirut last month gives me hope that religious leaders can play a role in speaking up for minority religions and negotiating conflicts between groups. The symbolism of holding such a meeting in Beirut is resonant and powerful. For Protestants and Catholics to come together with Shi'ites and Sunnis in a city so often shredded by sectarian violence sends a powerful message to faith communities and the world.

Young Egyptians Use Facebook Coffee to Bring Religions Together
By Shahira Amin
From CNN
A group in Cairo is using a Facebook page to unite Egypt's different religions at a local coffeehouse in the upper-class suburb of Maadi.
Over a cappuccino and a muffin, an orthodox Christian, a liberal Muslim and an ultra-conservative Islamist discuss their differing ideologies in the hopes of changing stereotypes.
They are known as the Salafyo Costa group, and they say one of their aims is to change the public perception of the Salafists, a puritanical branch of Islam that dictates only the followers of the prophet Mohammed practice the correct Islam. Salafists are often perceived as terrorists, the group says.
As Egyptians come to the end of the first round of voting in the country's historic elections, Islamist parties appear headed for a decisive majority in the first freely elected parliament since the ouster of former dictator Hosni Mubarak.
So far, the Freedom and Justice Party operated by the Muslim Brotherhood, the country's largest and best-organized political movement, has won nearly 40% of the vote, followed by the ultraconservative Salafist parties with another 25%.

Egyptian Muslims and Christians: "If You Don't Communicate, You Don't Exist"
By Safia Aoude
from Common Ground News Service
Alexandria, Egypt – "We can write anything now!" said an editor of the Egyptian newspaper Al-Ahram to some visiting Danish participants in Cairo as a part of a recent Alexandria-based conference called "Media´s Role for Changing Society and Democracy". The Egyptian revolution has certainly become a catalyst for free speech and for more political debate in Egyptian media. Yet, the chaotic climate of the revolution has also suffered some backlash. Another editor at Al-Ahram warned that the media in Egypt is now in a political limbo, and can sometimes even motivate the Egyptian public towards sectarian violence and false information.
The conference and the changing media landscape made it clear to all participants that both mass media communication, as well as Muslim-Christian dialogue, were of immense importance during this time of transition in Egypt. And participants did note that the media has the potential to promote positive dialogue. New media, especially social media sites like YouTube, Facebook or Twitter, has brought new players into the game of mass communication and challenged the hegemony of the "old" regular mass media.
Danish participant Peter Fisher-Nielsen pointed out that the limitations created by state censorship have loosened after the revolution, but that the current absence of any limits on what can be discussed in the media also poses a danger for more confrontation. That is why direct dialogue between religious minorities and groups has become more important than ever.
The conference brought together Muslim and Christian activists and leaders to do just that through discussion of the religious media and the on-going Egyptian revolution. Co-organised by the Egyptian Coptic Evangelical Organization for Social Services (CEOSS) and the Danish Christian organisation Danmission, the conference was conducted by the Forum for Intercultural Dialogue the first week of October.

Egypt protesters stage interfaith prayers for dead

Thousands of Egyptian Muslims Serve as Human Shields to Protect Coptic Christians
from Ahram Online
Muslims turned up in droves for the Coptic Christmas mass Thursday night, offering their bodies, and lives, as "shields" to Egypt's threatened Christian community
Egypt's majority Muslim population stuck to its word last Thursday night. What had been a promise of solidarity to the weary Coptic community, was honoured, when thousands of Muslims showed up at Coptic Christmas eve mass services in churches around the country and at candle light vigils held outside.
From the well-known to the unknown, Muslims had offered their bodies as "human shields" for the evening mass, making a pledge to collectively fight the threat of Islamic militants and towards an Egypt free from sectarian strife.
"We either live together, or we die together," was the sloganeering genius of Mohamed El-Sawy, a Muslim arts tycoon whose cultural centre distributed flyers at churches in Cairo Thursday night, and who has been credited with first floating the "human shield" idea.
Among those shields were movie stars Adel Imam and Yousra, popular Muslim televangelist and preacher
, the two sons of President Hosni Mubarak, and thousands of citizens who have said they consider the attack one on Egypt as a whole.
"This is not about us and them," said Dalia Mustafa, a student who attended mass at Virgin Mary Church on Maraashly Street. "We are one. This was an attack on Egypt as a whole, and I am standing with the Copts because the only way things will change in this country is if we come together."
Coptic Christians Are Neighbors
by Abdul Malik Mujahid
from the Huffington Post
I was horrified to read about the New Year's Day bombing that killed 21 worshipers at the Coptic Christian Saints Church in Alexandria, Egypt. I join Muslim scholars around the world who have roundly condemned this act that directly contravenes Islamic teachings.
"Muslims are not only obligated not to harm Christians, but to protect and defend them and their places of worship," said Imam Ahmed Al Tayeb, the Grand Imam of Al-Azhar, in response to the attack.
Tense relations between people of different faiths are not limited to this horrific incident. Nor are they reserved to Egypt. Around the world, we are witnessing deadly extremism as well as intense conflict, whether the weapons are hateful words or bombs and guns.
Too often, religion is misused as an instrument for division and injustice. This betrays the very ideals and teachings that lie at the heart of each of the world's great traditions. Religious and spiritual traditions shape the lives of billions around the world in wise and wonderful ways. They offer a platform for community building, not only within individual faiths, but across faiths as well.
The Council for a Parliament of the World's Religions traces its roots to the first parliament that took place in Chicago almost 120 years ago. From the start, its aim has been to cultivate harmony among the world's religious and spiritual communities. As well, the Council aims to foster their engagement with the world and its guiding institutions to achieve a just, peaceful, and sustainable world.
Over the years, the interfaith movement has initiated dialogues and nurtured relationships between people of varying faiths. In doing so, it has provided a framework for expressing many visions of a just, peaceful and sustainable future. In the process, religious and spiritual communities have discovered a shared commitment to ethical principles and engaged in seeking the common good.
This modern interfaith movement is taking root all across the world. Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair has established his own interfaith foundation; Saudi Arabia's King Abdullah has found interfaith dialogue a crucial aspect of living in an interdependent world; last August, when a few Christian homes were attacked in Pakistan, the leader of the most conservative Islamic party in Karachi stood with Christians and Hindus protesting against this crime; when the Coptic Church was attacked on January 1, Sheikh Ahmed El-Tayeb, head of Al Azhar, visited the Coptic Orthodox Pope Shenouda III to express his solidarity. Students at Al-Azhar University also organized a protest rally in solidarity with Egyptian Copts.

The erosion of carbon deposition layers by oxygen exposure and the desorpstion of hydrogen retained in the layers were investigated experimentally. Carbon deposition layers were formed by a sputtering method using hydrogen RF plasma. The layers were exposed to an argon gas with oxygen of 1013 Pa in the temperature range of 200-400°C. The erosion reaction progressed quickly within 10 minutes and then decelerated rapidly. The measurement of the outlet concentration revealed that most of the layer was eroded not as carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide but as soot. Additionally, it was estimated that the soot was released from the carbon deposition layer with a large amount of hydrogen.

How about for off-season athletes? After their initial light activity phase?
People ask how is weight training good for you?
The answers are endless and some unexplainable.
Scientific research supports that is lowers blood pressure, increases insulin sensitivity, helps maintain proper body composition. People still do not acept those answers, most of all because they do not want to do it. stuck in their beliefs.
First and foremost physical activity involving resistance (weights in this case) needs to be done properly. Done properly can aid in bone density and connective joint tissue strength. Bringing this underwater can aid in the direct pressure of the spine since the pressure is more ambient rather than direct.
I hope to one day prove (through scientific research) with certain methods there are certain benefits of weight training fully submerged underwater. There will still be people who oppose such ideas. It is not for everybody. but that does not single out the majority. I do not even care if people do not want to participate. I want to wake up and be able to do the two things i love. Weight train and scuba dive.. But life is not a fairy tale. So I must find ways to trace protein synthesis through chemical isotopes to prove or disprove a possible benefit of weight training fully submerged underwater at atmospheric depths. Find reasons for party's to support such research. And turn a dream into a business proposition.
Whether it is for government ~ soldiers, increasing quality of life for certain individuals
Sports teams, getting athletes reconditioned or even conditioned faster to be put on the main training schedule after the off-season rest.
- decrease recovery times due to muscle tissue damage during weigh training,
GET in the water, and lift a weight. Tell me how it feels.
But the catch is you need to learn how to properly lift weight.

a "deep" tin aroma. quite a bit of perique, with its sour/sweet notes.
dark brown flake cut with lighter and even yellow streaks. packs and lights easily.
this is a fine tobacco indeed, with a very "clean" taste. the virginia is only semi sweet and with deep flavours akin to the fine lakeland virginias; it also makes me think of the kind of virginia used for will's medium capstan. or is it rather a bit like the ancient cut blended plug? medium/medium-strong. the perique gives it the typical stoved fruit taste and flavour. it burns slowly, as will all quality flakes, and it dgt's beautifully. i will certainly get hold of a lot more of this, for smoking as well as for aging.
a bonus is the kinda old fashioned tin; the same size, i think, as cope's escudo. very charming
ps: i should add that in spite of the fine flavours, it could probably do with a couple of months more in the tin, as there's a kind of rough edge to it. a bit of aging will no doubt even out that edge.

My Girlfriend got this for me for Christmas last year and the tin was empty 2 weeks later. Another 2 weeks after that, I'd opened and half-smoked my 2nd tin...
I'm lucky enough to have quite a few very good tobacconists in the area that all have DTM tobaccos (I'm in Germany...), so this is easy to get for me and also relatively affordable. Let's say it's good value for money.
The tin note upon opening is very very sour and slightly sweet. The sourness coming from the Perique and assumingly partially the very dark virginias as well. It smells almost rotten, but in a good way, if that makes any sense at all... When I open a tin of this, my mouth immediately starts to salivate. The flakes themselves are also of a delicious dark brown chocolate or black coffee color with few lighter strips in between. They're loosely pressed, so they almost fall apart, hence making them perfect for fold and stuff after drying out for about an hour.
First light reveals a sweet, earthy, musty, creamy and slightly plum-like aroma. As the bowl progresses, it gets spicier and sweeter, but also slightly bitter and I like that. I prefer sipping this in short puffs, as that really gets out all the great flavors to be had here...
This is so so so delicious, I'm going to go have a bowl right now!

I got this blend about a month ago as part of a package from Dan Tobacco. Given the usually rather dry tobaccos I normally get from DT, this was a bit of a surprise.
A nasty one, at first: this flake was actually wet enough to drip when I took a bit of it in my hand and pressed it. Now, I do realize that any tobacco blend is somewhat different from tin to tin, but how could any tobacco be _this_ wet?!? So, for my first impression, this one went down the drain from the start.
St. Bernard is the first tobacco I have ever experienced that reached me in a state impossible to light. After a day or so of drying out, I found a somewhat broken flake in a medium-wide cut. I endeavoured to rub out a bit and stuff it in one of my VA/Per pipes, and the experience was just horrible. Condensation was uncontrolleable, one third down all I could taste was tar, and my pipe was on the brink of glowing cherry red.
I won't give up that easily, though. I tried this blend throughout the next few weeks, as it kept drying down to normal moisture levels, and a few more pipefuls were discarded prematurely, because when overly moist, this blend does come up with a rather noticeable note of tar, especially when smoked outside.
Inside, once dried down enough, this blend is quite palatable; much more dark in taste and aroma that most VA/Pers I have thus far experienced (maybe it will brighten up a little with more drying out? --I'll let you know); the taste does not go to pure tar until the final puffs, and there are notes of dark chocolate, some gentle green pepper and lots of sweetness. The room note is OK, but nothing to write home about, and I still need several re-lights to get to the bottom of the bowl.
I've tried this 'baccy in all sorts of bowls, usually more than once as it dried out (unusually, I'm leaving the tin open so I can hopefully enjoy its content later this year...). It shows promise, but at this time, I much prefer the likes of C&D Exhausted Rooster or Bayou Morning fresh from the tin.
-- update, 09-08-18 -- My tin has finally dried down to what I am used to from the moister flakes. The end of the smoke is still pretty nasty, though the first three quarters aren't really bad.
-- update, 11-10-30 -- after another visit to Dan Tobacco's facilities I became convinced that the two tins I had based my review on were out of the norm. I tried the St. Bernard from the sample jar, and it was quite good, so I bought another tin. Quite acceptable; yes, moist, but not even near the levels Sam Gawith get away with. The smoke is quite good, and so I stand converted; this is really a good blend. Recommended!

I just finished a nice sized sample of this a friend sent me. I can see why he smokes this blend so much. It is a very well balanced VaPer and gives you everything you would expect from such a blend. By well balanced I mean that the blend has the perfect amount of Virginia sweetness combined with the perfect amount of Perique spice. It makes for a fantastic smoking experience at least as my tastes and expectations are concerned.
If I had to pick a negative it would be that judging upon my wife's expression after I finished my bowl, it must have a horrible room note. This would stand to reason as burning or even unburnt Perique are both pretty repulsive smelling and the perfect amount of perique to me is probably a little higher than what the average piper would prefer. I would put this right there with Escudo and would have trouble picking a favorite. As such it is four stars for me and I will be buying more for certain.

Like the old faithful mastiff with a keg of brandy around its neck, DTM's St Bernard Flake brings comfort to the pipester in the cold. Due to the stupid legislation, most of my smoking takes place among the fresh winds of the external atmosphere. During the cold portion of the year (appx. nine months) the subtleties of Va flakes get wasted and something with more strength is to be preferred. Here we have a tobacco that actually benefits from being smoked outside in the freezing breeze. Of course this applies to many a VaPer out there, but rarely in this price range.
The 7x3 cm light and medium brown flakes came packed in a 9 cm round tin of the cheap type DTM uses for several other of their own mixtures, e.g. Hamborger Veermaster. After opening, the low quality threading does not allow the tin to be closed tight. This is the single drawback I can find with this tobacco. The smell is intense, of rotten hay und das Sauerkraut, ripe tobacco. There are no fruity notes. Moisture level is perfect.
The folding method is not for me but I assume the flake will behave that way as well as slightly rubbed, which I prefer. At ignition there is the typical punch in the nose from the generous portion of Perique. The sharp VaPer taste has a fine rural nuance, that of cattle dung to be exact. Towards the end of the medium strength bowl the dry Virginia taste takes over. Usually there is little need for relighting or other tampering with the pipe during the St Bernard pass.
St Bernard flake does not quite push McClelland Beacon or SG St James down from the VaPer podium but Dunhill DLNR at a third higher price is one tobacco that will definitely have to watch out. The sturdy St Bernard delivers quality that you wouldn't expect at the medium price range. Will order more soon.

The Virginias are grassy with a bit of bold earthiness. The sweetness is citrus, and tangy dried fruit. The perique is strong, offering some plum and raisin with a sharp spiciness in every puff. There's a prevalent musty, leathery, bitter quality that, depending on your personal preferences, either clash with or compliment the sweet and sour flavor. Despite all of that, you'll notice a creaminess from the topping that keeps this from becoming harsh, though I suspect a pinch or two of dark cavendish is present. In many ways, it's a bolder, sweeter, spicier version of Dunhill Navy Rolls with some different flavor hits. Burns slow and requires some relights. Made for an experienced smoker.

Windhoek — Discontentment, especially within the newsroom, with management, alleged favouritism and a non-conducive working environment at The Namibian newspaper are said to have led to an unprecedented exodus from the daily with at least seven staff members tendering their resignations within a period of less than three months and more believed to be on the way out.
Among those that are leaving, or have already tendered their resignations, are news editor Daoud Vries, who is said to be headed for the Windhoek Observer, chief photographer Tanya Bause, who has left for the Allgemeine Zeitung and senior journalist for special programmes Jan Poolman, who is expected to join the tabloid newspaper Informanté.
Sources close to The Namibian indicate that staff members are unhappy with the management of the newsroom, where most of the haemorrhaging is being experienced. Some sources also complain about alleged preferential treatment or favouritism, including a subtle form of 'racism', in matters relating to the remuneration of staff members practised at the English daily.
"Despite raking in millions, the company staff, especially journalists are some of the lowest paid in Namibia," said a source that requested anonymity. "The work environment is not conducive. We even use private cars without the company paying for the wear and tear on private cars," said the source, adding that the newspaper refuses to pay for the maintenance of their vehicles, which they use to carry out work related assignments.
When approached for comment this week, the editor of The Namibian, Tangeni Amupadhi said the newspaper does not consider the resignations as something out of the ordinary, because those that have left, or are leaving have provided reasons such as to further their studies, while others have apparently left in their constant quest for greener pastures.
"Otherwise, it may be because The Namibian is being re-organised with the sole aim of making us relevant and nimble in a changing news media business [environment]. It is very likely that some people are uncomfortable with the changes, accompanied by demands for increased quality and competence and would have preferred to remain as they have always been," Amupadhi said.
"We appreciate those who step aside, because they do not buy into our vision for the future rather than to walk along with us and constantly lay obstacles in our path," said Amupadhi. He further said: "Christof Maletsky, for example, has been appointed the managing editor in one of such re-organisation steps that, we believe, will rejuvenate The Namibian to handle a fast-changing media world for many years to come."
On the issue of salaries, Amupadhi urged this reporter to compare his pay-slip with the sources to verify their allegations. "May I again ask you and your sources to compare your salaries as a way for you to verify their allegations," he recommended. He added that only the human resources department has a global knowledge of individual salaries, because of the confidentiality of the salaries of all personnel of the newspaper.
"The Namibian has hired staff along suitability and grades and not on the mere whims of individuals," said the editor. Amupadhi also denied the existence of discrimination and racism at The Namibian saying: "I can only suspect that any journalist making such an accusation is himself or herself prejudiced and wants to create a smokescreen for schemes unbeknown to us."

A Little, More Often #4
By dankempster 2 Comments
Hey guys. Once again, I've found myself back in that position where I don't have a lot to say about any particular game, but I do have a little to say about a few titles I've played recently. This means I'm reverting to the 'A Little, More Often' blog format this week. Let's get started, shall we?
I've owned The Ultimate DOOM on Steam for quite some time now, more as an item of historical video game interest to dabble with than something I'd ever seriously considered playing. That stance on the game changed last week when a friend picked it from my Pile of Shame and advised me to try playing through it. Over the course of a few days I powered through its relatively short but incredibly challenging campaign, seeing the end of its third chapter on Tuesday. As somebody who doesn't play a lot of first-person shooters period, let alone with the unfamiliar mouse-and-keyboard method of control, I found DOOM to be very difficult, but I also found a huge element of reward in overcoming that difficulty. The combat is fast-paced and the enemies relentless, a world away from the design ethics of modern shooters, but that was precisely what kept me interested in DOOM right through to its final climactic showdown. I did briefly toy with the idea of playing through the bonus fourth chapter included with The Ultimate DOOM, but quickly decided against it - the difficulty of that expansion is markedly higher than anything in the game's vanilla campaign, and several steps above my personal DOOM threshold. With its sequel and the first two Quake games also sitting in my Steam library, I'm sure it won't be long before I sample the delights of another of id's formative shooters.
Sam & Max: Culture Shock
As of the time of writing, I'm not sure if I'm still playing the first episode of Telltale Games' inaugural season of Sam & Max. I bought all three series (a total of sixteen episodes) last weekend while they were on sale on GOG.com, with a tentative view to playing through one episode every couple of weeks or so. Unfortunately that plan's been thrown into jeopardy before it's even really begun, because I seem to have hit a game-breaking glitch that won't allow me to finish Culture Shock. To cut a long story short, I'm at a point where I need to speak to Sybil Pandemik to progress, but she's nowhere to be found in the gameworld. I've played through the bulk of the episode a total of three times now, and each time I've run into the same issue of this missing crucial NPC. It's a real shame, because up until I hit this snag I was having a blast with Sam & Max. It's well-written, genuinely funny, and the puzzles are rewarding to solve without ever feeling too difficult or deliberately obtuse. I'd seen this as my doorway back into point-and-click adventures, a genre I've been trying to get into over the last couple of years, but unless I can find a way around this persistent problem, I don't think I'll be pushing through the episodes in the way I'd hoped.
Medal of Honor
Taking time out from Culture Shock, I've turned my attention to another vintage first-person shooter in the form of Medal of Honor. Considering it's thirteen years old, it's still remarkably playable, thanks in large part to the number of current industry conventions it features - an objective-based single-player campaign, body-part-specific damage to enemies, a control scheme that approximates what's now become the industry standard for first-person gaming, and cinematic presentation. It's a game that must have felt prophetically ahead-of-its-time back on its release in late 1999. The graphics are rough around the edges, the enemy AI leaves a lot to be desired, and success in the forced stealth 'undercover' sections is very hit-and-miss. But fundamentally, it's very much the same core experience of shootin' dudes that you'd find in any military FPS of the last ten years, which is to say it's still pretty fun. I'm seven levels into its twenty-four-level campaign, and anticipate that I may well see this one through to its end within the next few days.
That's Yer Lot
I think that covers more or less everything. I've not made much progress with either Final Fantasy Tactics Advance or Persona 4, so no need for a JRPG progress report this time around. All that remains for me to do is remind you all that this coming Friday (November 23rd), starting at 9am GMT, I'll be embarking on a twenty-four-hour video game marathon to raise money for charity. I'll be doing an in-depth write-up nearer the time, but if you're feeling generous already, you can donate on my JustGiving page here. I'd be eternally grateful, as I'm sure would the people the funds raised will go towards helping. Anyway, thanks for reading, and I'll see you around.
Currently playing - Medal of Honor (PS1)

For an introduction to our Modular iSIPP, you can watch our video. To find out more detail, please visit the Modular iSIPP page.
A Self-Invested Personal Pension, or SIPP, is a personal pension plan that offers greater control and flexibility over where your pension money is invested.
In traditional pension schemes, the investment choice is normally limited to funds run by the pension company, or managed for you within a pooled fund. A SIPP allows you and your financial adviser to take advantage of much wider investment flexibility, so you can take complete control of your retirement wealth planning.
A SIPP is a HM Revenue & Customs registered pension scheme, so benefits from the normal tax relief available to pensions. Basic rate tax relief can be claimed on contributions into a SIPP and this can then be added to the fund. To invest £100, it will only cost a basic rate taxpayer £80. If you pay higher rate tax, you can claim back the remainder through your tax return.
Tax - SIPPs are set up under trust, separating pension funds from other assets for inheritance tax and capital gains tax purposes.
Contributions - If you are a UK resident, you will be able to receive tax relief on contributions up to 100% of your earnings or up to £3,600 if you have no earnings. There is no limit on contributions but if your contributions in respect of a tax year exceed the annual allowance (£40,000 for 2014/15 tax year), you may be subject to a personal tax charge called the annual allowance charge.
Commercial property - One of the great advantages of a SIPP is that it allows direct investment in commercial property, allowing any business premises and the rental income to be put into retirement savings.
Consolidation - Modern working culture often means individuals accumulate more than one pension. A SIPP is a great way of getting past pension funds in one place so they can be managed in a more efficient and considered way.
Taking income drawdown – Drawdown pension can normally be taken from the age of 55, subject to certain exceptions. SIPPs provide a great deal of flexibility on taking benefits, including flexible and capped drawdown.
For more information, you can read more about SIPPs by reading the Modular iSIPP Member Guide or download our Member Drawdown factsheet.
James Hay Partnership was the first SIPP provider in the UK when we launched our first SIPP in 1996. Today over 50,000* clients trust us to look after more than £16 billion* worth of pension and investment savings.
*As at December 2014
A SIPP can be held and invested in by any UK resident (or anyone who has been in the last five years) who is over the age of 18.
SIPPs are ideal if you are comfortable making your own investment decisions as the additional investment flexibility comes with a greater responsibility to monitor and manage your investments. A SIPP is therefore suitable for someone who feels comfortable with making investment decisions, or someone who is taking financial advice.
The tax efficiency of this product is subject to your individual circumstances and may be subject to change.

The Tarpan horse is one of the 4 "primitive horses" existing from the period associated with both the Ice Grow older. These horses were your makeup breeds with regard to all modern horses. The Tarpan horse occurred between both the Asian steppe horse – Przewalski's Horse – and the thick-legged, viewing Tree horse. This can is actually one swifter moving horse, other lightly if you were compared to another two, as well as grew in-between your steppes on Ukraine and the forests regarding Eastern Europe. There are a few debates as to regardless of whether an new Tarpan forms extinct, saved, or repaired. A few point out both the horse exists with this cans true mode on saves with Poland; competition point out last Tarpan died with captivity among 1887 and then 1919, which anybody along preserves are actually an mix of pureblooded Tarpan and also local outrageous Wax peasant ponies.
Your Tarpan cabinets somewhere around 13 hands advanced. That provides one long, ample venture has one straight to a little convex consideration. The Tarpan horse neck is short and solid, your house downward slope, and the tail established light. That the color ranges from dun to help brown to one black dorsal stripe as well as black mane and then tail. Zebra remove sometimes arrive during the extensions or even on the body. Both the wintertime coat provides remained known to transform white beneath cold climatic.
That are one of many three discovering breeds for modern horses, an Tarpan's origins will just be mentioned for you to followed from the ancient Equus this transferred by States to be able to Europe and also Asia during the period regarding your Ice Years. It was looked through report for the meat being considered that delicacy to the 18th century. Hone peasants also rounded up as well as cracked both the Tarpan with regard to light village labor. The final wild Tarpan is mentioned to purchase make wiped out beneath Russia in 1879. Above a "second" captive Tarpan passed on, the Polish govt. is actually expressed to be rounded up that herd associated with horses that turned much like the normal Tarpan and then decided these people in both tree saves. These types of horses retain much of a Tarpan role either they're technically pureblooded or perhaps no longer.
The Tarpan horse forms extremely brave as well as fertile. That they taste evidence to ailment and then treat accident without trouble. Tarpan stallions are recognized for you to assault local breeds when at stake, usually vying efficiently towards the death. This particular what caused a unique fierceness screen by seekers among the Tarpan.

EXCESSES of sexual indulgence or abstinence can change the structure of the brain, says a scientist in California. Marc Breedlove of Stanford University put 10 male rats in with females given hormones to make them respond readily to male advances. Nine other males were caged with females treated to rebuff their attentions.
After a month, he examined a part of the male rats' brains called the bulbocavernosus, which is active during copulation. The motor neuronsa category of nerve that controls muscle fibreswere significantly smaller in this area in the males who had gorged on sex than in their celibate counterparts, reports Breedlove in this week's

Necklace & Bracelet Clasp Types
Lobster Claw Clasp: As a traditional clasp style found in bracelets and necklaces, the lobster claw is generally reserved for heavier styles that may need added strength. The closure's shape is more oblong, similar to a teardrop shape, and is controlled by a tip that opens and closes the spring in the clasp. This type is also considered a more expensive finding that can add to the overall value of the jewelry piece.
Magnetic Clasp: The popularity of the magnetic clasp has greatly increased in recent years. It is a quick and easy way to secure jewelry while not having to fuss with a tiny clasp, which can be difficult if you have long fingernails, arthritic hands or other mobility challenges. A magnetic clasp relies on a strong internal magnet that works to pull both ends of the clasp together. In most cases, a magnetic clasp is used for light to medium weight jewelry pieces that do not put excessive stress on the magnet.
Slide Insert Clasp: This type of clasp is exactly as it sounds. With a box-like shape that is hollow on the inside, the wearer will slide the nearly-flat tab into the box until it clicks, indicating a secure closure. On some jewelry, a slide insert clasp will be accompanied by a side safety catch, which adds strength and security to the clasp. Although this type of clasp is found on both bracelets and necklaces, it is particularly popular on bracelet styles. These types of clasps are often reserved for more expensive jewelry.
Spring Ring Clasp: One of the most common closure types, the spring ring clasp is typically used for light to medium weight bracelets or necklaces. It is round in its design and features a small tip which controls the opening and closing of the spring. The circle then closes around another smaller loop or link at the other end of the strand.
Toggle Clasp: A toggle clasp is a narrow piece of metal, usually designed in the shape of a bar, which is then pushed through a circular ring to act as a fastener. Unlike the lobster claw or spring ring clasps, a toggle clasp is not controlled by a spring. The pretty design is less secure than other closure types, but is usually meant to be a big part of the design and is meant to "show". The clasp is an attractive way to secure a chunkier link bracelet or necklace.
Labradorite is a beautiful mineral whose charm is not fully noticed and may be overlooked if not viewed from the proper position. Generally a gray to smoky black color, it displays a strong iridescence when cut correctly. In fact, labradorite's value increases with the skill of the lapidary and strength of the iridescence. Ranking a 6.0-6.5 on Mohs Scale, its name is derived from Labrador, Canada, which is the main source of the stone. Modern folklore says that labradorite brings forth each person's strengths, originality and ability to relate to others.

In times past, extended families lived closer together and communities were tighter-knit providing built-in postpartum support. Women who had just given birth would stay indoors for a month or so to rest, regain her strength, and bond with her baby while family members and women in the community would support her. These days, new mamas in this country are often pressured or expected to bounce right back which can impede healing and increase the risk of postpartum depression.
The below tips and suggestions are meant to help and support new mamas and families who have just experienced a very physical and emotional life-changing event. Being a gentle and considerate visitor will make the family feel loved, supported, and grateful during this transformational time in their lives.
- Schedule visits in advance instead of dropping by unannounced in case there are other visitors, mama and baby are nursing, napping, etc.
- During the first few weeks, front porch meal drop-offs and shorter visits are best when families are tired, bonding with baby, adjusting and may not be up to hosting company. Longer visits are better in the later weeks and months when long-term helpers have left, other visitors have stopped coming, and partners have gone back to work. This is when many mamas feel isolated and lonely.
- If mama is feeling tired or needs some privacy, it may be difficult for her to ask you to leave. Follow her cues and be mindful of her needs.
- If you are under the weather (even the tail end of a cold or if you suspect a scratchy throat or sniffle), postpone your visit until you are certain you are 100% well.
- Babies and new mamas have heightened senses of smell. It's best to avoid wearing perfume, scented body lotions, cologne or aftershave.
- Remove your shoes and wash your hands when you arrive.
- Leave pets and children at home unless you're bringing children over for a playdate or outing with the family's older children (outside or away from the family's house) which you plan to supervise.
- This can be difficult, but remember that the purpose of the visit is for you to help and support the family. Do not expect or ask to hold the baby. Wait for mama to offer and don't take it personally if she does not.
- Greet any siblings with an enthusiastic hello before doting on the new baby.
- Offer to do a chore if you are comfortable with the idea. You can load or unload the dishwasher, wash the dishes in the sink, wipe down a counter top, sweep the floor, fold laundry, take out the trash, take the dogs for a walk, etc.
- Give advice only if the parents specifically ask for it. If you are a generation older, understand that parenting philosophies and techniques have likely changed since you last cared for babies. Never judge or criticize their choices.
- If the family has a baby in the NICU, they also need support. Congratulate them on the birth of their new baby. Ask them how they and the baby are doing, give gift cards to restaurants near the hospital, gas cards or a care package of healthy snacks and drinks being mindful of dietary allergies and/or preferences. If they are staying near the hospital or away from home, offer to pick up mail, water plants, care for pets or bring needed items to the hospital.
- Ask whether the family has set up an online meal-delivery calendar, such as Take Them A Meal or Meal Train. If they haven't, organizing one is is a great job for a close friend or family member. Check the family's Meal Train page (or check with the family) for information about food preferences, sensitivities, and allergies, as well as any other preferences such as food delivery times, locations, dates. Put food in disposable containers or thrift store dishes and attach a note to the meal specifying that the dish does not need to be returned.
- Family members and friends who live far away can help by hiring the services of a postpartum doula, house cleaner, diaper service, grocery delivery service, etc. Letting the family know that you are a friendly, supportive ear and that they can call, text or email is also a tremendous help!
- Encourage the parents. Tell them that they are doing a wonderful job and that you are proud of them.

Can Israel regain Eurovision glory?
Posted By Viva Sarah Press On May 16, 2013 @ 12:00 am In | 1 Comment
The 2013 Eurovision Song Contest is underway in Malmo and Israel's representative will do her best to beat the odds and reach the finals. Moran Mazor – a 21-year-old from the city of Holon, just outside of Tel Aviv — will take part in tonight's Second Semi-Final.
Mazor has already turned heads at the campy song contest with her low-cut, racy dress. She's hoping her rendition of the ballad, Rak Bishvilo, will garner the votes and push her into the final round set for Saturday night.
"For me to take part in this amazing Eurovision Song Contest is a dream come true," Mazor told contest organizers. "I am proud to represent Israel and I am sure I will bring honor to my country, family and friends."
Israel began participating in the song contest in 1973. In 1978, Izhar Cohen and Alphabeta who won with the song A-Ba-Ni-Bi; then in 1979, Gali Atari and the Milk & Honey group won with the song Hallelujah; and finally, in 1998, transsexual singer Dana International won with her song, Diva.
Eurovision producers say some 100,000 fans have descended on the Swedish host city to party and celebrate the music happening.
Bookmakers say Denmark or Ukraine are the two hot favorites with Azerbaijan and Italy runners up.

On September 11, 2001 four commercial airliners were hijacked in a planned attack against the United States. Two jet liners were flown into the World Trade Center Twin Towers and a third aircraft into the Pentagon. A fourth aircraft, United Airlines Flight 93, crashed into an open field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania in the Laurel Highlands.
The 40 passengers and crew of Flight 93 had time to realize that this was unlike any previous hijacking, and they developed a plan to try to take back the plane and not let it reach its intended target, Washington, DC. They succeeded in this effort, but, unfortunately, lost their lives.
Congress acted swiftly to authorize a national memorial to commemorate the brave actions of the passengers and crew of Flight 93. A unique partnership was formed that brought together State and Federal agencies, the local communities, families of the passengers and crew, and the American people in creating a memorial to honor the 40 heroes on board Flight 93.
Visitors can access the new unit of the National Park Service directly off of US Route 30, and will follow a newly-constructed 2 ½ mile access road, leading to a one mile "Ring Road" which encircles the field adjacent to the crash site.
The final resting place of the passengers and crew is the heart of the Flight 93 National Memorial, and will remain untouched. After parking, visitors will be able to view the crash site from the Memorial Plaza. The names of the 40 passengers and crew are inscribed on the wall of the plaza as it follows the flight path of the plane. At the Arrival Court, visitors are greeted by volunteer Ambassadors and by National Park Service rangers who will explain the events that occurred on September 11 and the actions of the passengers and crew of Flight 93.
On behalf of the Flight 93 National Memorial partners - the Families of Flight 93, the Friends of the Flight 93 National Memorial, and the National Park Foundation - the National Park Service invites you to visit the Laurel Highlands to experience a significant piece of our nation's history; one that we must NEVER FORGET.
But our work is not yet done. The next phase of construction, which includes an education and visitor center, is currently under way. Join with us and thousands of others to ensure that this important day in our nation's history is remembered by future generations.

Flamboyant Makadara MP Mike Mbuvi alias Sonko is being sought by Gilgil police to record a statement after he left the scene of an accident involving his car and an Akamba bus.
The Toyota saloon the MP was in rear-ended the bus at 3 am on Monday. The MP and his passengers drove off after they realised their car was only slightly damaged. It was not clear who was driving the car at the time with reports indicating there were five occupants.
Sonko, came out of the vehicle after the collision, and told the passengers in the bus that he wanted to rush one of his bodyguards who was injured to hospital. He however did not return to the scene of the accident.
Passengers in the Kampala-bound bus said Sonko's bodyguard was injured on the head."The MP said he was rushing the injured man to hospital and that was the last we saw him," said a witness.
Confirming the incident, Naivasha OCPD Ernest Oponyo said they wanted the MP to record a statement on what transpired."We don't understand why the MP decided to leave the scene of the accident with the car that was involved and we want to talk to him over the matter," he said. He added that Sonko left the insurance sticker of his car at the scene with one of the witnesses.
The Akamba Bus was taken for mechanical check and another one called in to ferry the passengers to Uganda. Late yesterday Sonko told journalists in Kisumu that he had been involved in an accident.
Sonko was speaking before he officiated at the launch of a peace soccer tournament organised for teams in Kisumu Town East constituency by two NGOs - the Fadhili Trust and Foot Soldiers. The two NGOs were set up after the post-election violence to promote peace among the youth.
Addressing the teams and football lovers, Sonko said Prime Minister Raila Odinga deserves respect for "bringing Kenya to where it is today".
The MP recently told a rally in Ukambani that he was more popular than Raila in Nairobi. But yesterday he told the youth to accord Raila the respect he deserves for his contribution to the country's political development.

'The Voice' Season 6 preview: Christina Grimmie covers Miley Cyrus and starts a coaches warAdd to Favorites | The Voice
Six seasons in and the "The Voice" certainly isn't hurting for talent.
In a new preview of the Season 6 premiere, hitting NBC Monday, Feb. 24, aspiring artist Christina Grimmie takes to the stage with a stunning cover of Miley Cyrus' hit "Wrecking Ball," sparking a war amongst all four coaches.
Returning coaches Shakira and Usher turn for the songstress almost immediately, with mainstay Adam Levine following suit.

Each puts up a great fight, but only one can win. Who comes out on top? We'll have to wait until Monday to find out.
Check out Grimmie's awesome audition above and tune in to the Season 6 premiere of "The Voice" on Monday, Feb. 24 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on NBC.

CEDAR RAPIDS - Today Rockwell Collins said it will lay off 300 workers by January. More than half of those cuts will happen here in Iowa.
The company plans to lay-off 100 workers in Cedar Rapids, plus another 75 at Rockwell Collins sites in Coralville, Manchester, Decorah and Bellevue. Most of the cuts in Cedar Rapids will be in the manufacturing arena.
"We're anticipating a decline in air travel and as you know, we make equipment for airlines, and also there are several government programs that have been delayed and that's had an impact on our business as well," said Pam Tvrdy, Rockwell Collins Spokeswoman.
Not all affected employees have been told of the cuts, Tvrdy says that will happen sometime between now and when the cuts take effect in January. The company says these are permanent cuts in an effort to reduce costs as the economy continues to slow.
"For the long term growth of our company, we've got to take action now and to manage so,me of the challenges we face ahead, and that's why this is necessary right now," said Tvrdy.
The cuts at Rockwell Collins are just the latest in a growing list eastern Iowa companies feeling the slowing economy. The Cedar Rapids Area Chamber of Commerce doesn't know how much more to expect.
"We're really in uncharted territory right now, between the flood and the national downturn, so no we really don't have a good way to predict how long it will last or when it will hit its worst," said Jen Neumann, Cedar Rapids Area Chamber of Commerce.
Although, they do say it will get worse before it gets better.
Just last week Rockwell Collins posted an 8 percent gain in revenue for the year. And, last September you might remember the company asked for 80 voluntary layoffs because of the strike with Boeing. On Monday, the company said those workers are expected to come back to work next month.

The abundance of photo-editing software available for computers, cell-phones and sticky-notes makes sharpening and retouching images easier than riding a unicorn. Unfortunately, real life doesn't come with a built-in editing application so when the world becomes so blurry you take the wrong dog for a walk, you can't fix the fuzziness with the click of a button. Bring everything into focus with an eye test for R50 at Waterstone Optometrists.
Even if the rain's not gone, it's still possible to see clearly. Some or other smart guy once said that prevention is better than cure and Waterstone Optometrists is the best place to put that theory into practice. Whether your vision is clear like glass or blurrier than last Friday night, regular optical check-ups are important and can pick up all sorts of nasties, like glaucoma, retinal disease, diabetes, high blood pressure and cataracts.
Though the rooms are so chic and comfortable that you'll be filled with the warm-fuzzies, behind that relaxing exterior lies advanced technology even the crew of some sci-fi mothership would be jealous of. Using the latest in ocular equipment and a brain full of high-tech know-how, the skilled optometrists will take you through a series of tests designed to evaluate your vision and ensure that your peepers are in perfect working order.
Once the friendly eye specialists have given you the once-over, you'll also receive a 35% discount on prescription Oakley frames to make sure your new clear-sightedness doesn't mess with your stylishness.Focus on this fact: Before glasses were available to the general public, miners in Armenia would pick up pieces of glass and fix them together with strings of toothpaste. These make-shift glasses were neither popular nor effective.

Chasing the Badwater challenge
Meech lets others break into a trot. He walks off the line. One hundred yards into the ordeal, he's still walking.
"Don't worry," he says, "I'm gonna run."
His tortoise tactics will play a factor in whether he beats the 48-hour deadline to officially finish.
Early bliss
Runners are allowed six crew members and two support vehicles. Adopting the less-is-more strategy, Meech employs four volunteers, April Thorp, Chris Hunter, Bruce Jamieson and his wife, Cecilia. All are endurance junkies.
Cecilia serves as crew chief and there's no questioning who's in charge. Organizing items in the back of a rented van barely a minute into the start, Cecilia, a Swede who's more blunt than her husband, says, "Now it begins, and I start turning into a bitch. I only care about Eric."
A La Jolla High graduate who ran his first half marathon at 13, Eric is dressed from head to toe in white. A white French Foreign Legion hat, the flaps protecting his neck from the sun. White shirt, white shorts, white compression socks. The ensemble is completed by a white skirt. The skirt is for modesty purposes. When Meech's crew drenches him during stops, the shorts become see-through, leaving little to the anatomical imagination.
After three miles, Meech drops the skirt.
"Too hot," he says, the temperature on the black asphalt later reading 170.
Cecilia compliments her husband's posterior.
"I didn't want to say anything," cracks Hunter. "I didn't want to admit I was looking."
The heat is on
Unless you've been exposed to the elements it's difficult to comprehend what 130 degrees Fahrenheit feels like. It's hard to breathe, your skin feels like it's frying. When the temperature reached 130 in 1998 one competitor said "my toenails burst like kernals of popcorn."
To prevent Meech from overheating, his crew pulls off rest stops every nine-tenths of a mile. First, a towel is draped around his feet so water won't seep into his shoes, decreasing the likelihood of blisters. Two other crew members drench Meech with water bottles and sponges. Chips of ice are placed in a front pouch of his hat. A bandana pouch is filled with ice, the bandana then tied around his neck.
Regarding his team's precision, Meech says, "They're like an IndyCar pit crew."
From Mile 17 on, Meech is paced by one of his crew members. Thorp, Jamieson and Cecilia eventually log more than 30 miles each.
When Meech reaches Stovepipe Wells at Mile 42 at about dusk, he collapses into a beach chair, extends his legs and tilts his head back as far as it will drop.
Behind him, 45-year-old Darren Fortney of Wisconsin lies on his back atop a wooden picnic table, his arms and legs splayed wide. Fortney tries sitting up then lets out an alarming scream, his entire lower body seizing into cramps.
"It's OK," one of Fortney's crew members tells him. "The electrolytes will kick in soon."
Meech stops for 24 minutes. But there's a drawback in allowing your body to recover. The clock ticks closer to the 48-hour deadline, and as he sits, runners he once led are heading up the 4,956-foot Townes Pass climb.

President Obama proposed new taxes only 36 days after he and the Democrats raised taxes for the vast majority of working Americans with special emphasis on upper-income levels. The tax policy and philosophy of the two parties are exactly as described in the next two paragraphs.
A Republican looks at Americans in their 20s, says they still have 40 working years left and asks what we can do to help them minimize taxes, earn a good living and take care of their family.

IMAGINE swarms of aircraft patrolling the skies, zapping missiles, aircraft or even satellites in low Earth orbit with invisible, ultrapowerful laser beams.
Such laser battles in the sky may not be such a long way off, after a megawatt laser weapon was fired from an aircraft for the first time.
Although the Airborne Laser (ABL) was fired from a stationary plane at a target on the ground just a few metres away, the test marked a milestone for the weapon, developed by aerospace firms Boeing, Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman.
The laser was 12 years in the making and cost $4.3 billion, putting it vastly over budget. The US Missile Defense Agency (MDA) calls it the answer to "rogue states" or terror groups who equip themselves with intercontinental ballistic missiles, such as Scuds.
Yet the ABL may soon be used to shoot down a much wider range of devices ...
