Gift encourages collaboration to expand the possibilities of cancer research
Pushing the Bounds of Inquiry
In a meeting with Tufts alumni in Manchester, New Hampshire, this fall, I asked: "Who here can say Tufts changed their life?" Every hand in the room went up. This has been my experience throughout my time thus far as the president of Tufts. The stories that alumni share with me—stories of new ideas grasped, careers launched, and life-changing friendships forged—demonstrate what a tremendous impact the university has on its students, even long after they leave our campuses.
"Our group's strengths are in the biological sciences and animal modeling, molecular biology, and some biochemistry."
A key theme in our university-wide strategic plan, known as T10, is our commitment to provide transformational experiences for our students. To train the leaders of tomorrow, we will continue to encourage students to explore the world and their place in it. By venturing outside their comfort zones—whether by tackling a new academic challenge, volunteering in the local community or abroad, or running a marathon for the first time—our students better understand themselves and discover all that they are capable of achieving. My own education made a tremendous difference in my life, and I am dedicated to seeing Tufts make such a difference for all its students as well. That's why it's heartening to hear from alumni, parents, and friends who share this goal, and to work with you and our faculty and staff to realize our common aims. We will strengthen Tufts' value for and impact on our students through efforts such as increasing student internship opportunities and supporting innovative teaching methods. In this edition of Blueprint, you will see many examples of how Tufts can transform lives. Ankur Sahu, E91, credits Tufts and its Japanese courses for the start of his international career and is now endowing a scholarship to open the doors of opportunity to the next generation. Janet "JJ" Kovak McClaran, V98, in appreciation for how well the Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine prepared her for her profession, has offered a matching challenge to encourage her fellow graduates to give back. And John K. Halvey, A82, A16P, is making a generous gift to support the life-changing work of Professor Maryanne Wolf, A12P, an expert on dyslexia and other reading disabilities.

"Working with other disciplines expands the possibilities of research," says Kuperwasser, associate professor in the Department of Developmental, Molecular, and Chemical Biology. Her lab has a long history of collaboration with experts in other fields. "Our group's strengths are in the biological sciences and animal modeling, molecular biology, and some biochemistry. But when it comes to things like quantitative b iology, mathematical modeling, or synthetic chemistry, we look to others for that expertise."
Kuperwasser and her colleagues tested a theory that came out of quantitative modeling conducted at the Whitehead Institute. The partnership uncovered a link between cellular plasticity and a genetic mutation in mice, possibly a key factor in how breast cancers develop.
Now a substantial gift from the Raymond and Beverly Sackler Foundation will help further advance research that bridges different scientific fields. The funding will support research in the Raymond and Beverly Sackler Laboratory for the Convergence of Biomedical, Physical, and Engineering Sciences. The Raymond and Beverly Sackler Foundation has funded
he question of how healthy cells turn into cancer cells has daunted researchers for decades. Then a group of Tufts biologists was able to shed new light on how breast cancers develop by stepping outside of scientific convention. Charlotte Kuperwasser's lab at Tufts University School of Medicine collaborated with MIT's Whitehead Institute to produce a new theory in cell plasticity, the ability of some cells to morph into different types of cells.

convergence programs in 12 U.S. universities, Cambridge University in the U.K., and Tel Aviv University in Israel. "At a time when funding from traditional sources is so restricted, this gift will be a springboard to continue this kind of collaboration," says Kuperwasser. She plans to use the gift to bring together as many individuals and disciplines as she can through working groups and symposia and by supporting postdoctoral research with an interdisciplinary focus. Kuperwasser believes interdisciplinary research has vast potential. Not only could continued collaborations generate new hypotheses on the origins of cancer, they could also expand the possibilities of personalized medicine, producing therapies tailored to how specific types of cancer originate. "This gift is an exciting conduit," she says. "It allows us to expand our creative borders and research."

The Full Ride
Inspired by their daughter's experience, parents endow a scholarship. By Micah Bluming
A Second Home
Virginia and Frank Siegel
ike countless other undergraduates, Ashley Siegel, A15, packed her bags and flew more than a thousand miles from her hometown for college. Leaving her on the steps of Haskell Hall on matriculation day was tough for Frank and Virginia Siegel, A15P, native Venezuelans who live in Florida. Like so many parents, they needed tissues as they hugged their baby goodbye. But ask them today why they love Tufts so much and the Siegels have a simple answer: Ashley found a home away from home on the Hill. The Siegels didn't travel nearly as far as their daughter when they went to college. While working full time to pay her tuition, Virginia attended school in South Florida, near her family, which had moved to the States when she was a girl. Frank likewise earned his degree close to home in Venezuela. That's why they're thrilled at how comfortable Ashley feels at Tufts, which she first visited on a whim during a trip to Boston in high school. Virginia and her daughter scouted out as many colleges as they could in the metro area, leaving Tufts until the very end. As it turned out, they saved the best for last. "I saw she just felt right at home, the greenery, the open space," says Virginia. "It was warm, diverse, pretty much just what she was looking for."
Owners of a successful paper trading company, the Siegels decided in 2012 to create the Frank and Virginia Siegel Scholarship Fund at Tufts. They started the scholarship that year with a $100,000 gift as part of the Tufts Financial Aid Initiative, and added another $100,000 in 2013. While Ashley is a big reason why they have made such generous donations, the Tufts Financial Aid Initiative offered an added bonus with its one-to-one match. Thanks to the initiative, the Siegels' scholarship fund now totals $400,000. Gina DeSalvo, director of the Parents Giving Program, helped them make the decision. "When I met the Siegels," she says, "I knew they were special people who truly valued the education and experience their daughter is having at Tufts. As we discussed ways they could make an additional impact at the university, the Tufts Financial Aid Initiative seemed to be the perfect fit, as it offered them a way to leave a lasting legacy for their family at Tufts, a place they love." With their endowed gifts, the Siegels are opening doors to generations of deserving Jumbos. Ashley continues to thrive at Tufts, studying biopsychology and German and playing intramural volleyball. To be able to give that opportunity to others, says Virginia, "that's priceless."

or Ankur Sahu, E91, a missed deadline was the start of something great. Sahu began his college career in his native India, but wanted to finish it in Boston. He applied to his top-choice universities, including Tufts and MIT, but missed MIT's deadline. Sahu came to the Hill determined to transfer to MIT the following year. But he fell in love. "At International Orientation, right at the beginning, I met the people who are still my closest friends," he says. When the time came to move, Sahu decided to stay. "I had such a positive experience my freshman year, where I was studying world-class engineering in a very international and liberal arts environment," he says, "so I decided to stay in Medford." He became an RA in Carmichael, "went to a lot of parties at the I-House," he adds with a laugh, and majored in electrical engineering, with a focus on semiconductors, materials that are the core components of all electronics products. He also took Japanese as an elective, a lucky choice of language that would serve him well. After graduating summa cum laude, Sahu joined a prestigious management training program at Panasonic in Japan, where he met his wife, Mari. A few years later the couple returned to the U.S. Sahu attended Harvard Business School and was recruited by investment banking firm Goldman Sachs to work in the San Francisco office investing in and advising emerging high-technology companies. They then moved to Tokyo, where Sahu started the private equity investment business for Goldman. He is now the co-head of pri-

vate equity in the Asia-Pacific region for the firm and is based in Mumbai, India. Tufts was the start. "Tufts has had such a strong impact on my life, more so than I ever realized while I was an undergrad," he says. That's why Sahu dedicates himself to helping talented young students get ahead. In partnership with a former Goldman Sachs colleague, he is currently involved with a project that aims to provide excellent high school educations for gifted girls in India, with the goal of helping them gain acceptance to the world's top universities. But he knows firsthand that admission into such a university is only half the battle. "When I think of my daughter, "When I think of my daughter, Emma, I Emma, I think of her potential think of her potential and the potential of all of the other young girls out there who don't have and the potential of all of the other the opportunities she has, or I had," he says.

The financial aid package Sahu received from have the opportunities she has, Tufts allowed him to put most of his time toward or I had. I wouldn't have been bettering his education; he hopes his gift will help tomorrow's promising students succeed.

his fall's reunion at the Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine increased support for the school and its current students, thanks to a challenge offered by Janet "JJ" Kovak McClaran, V98, a member of the school's board of advisors. For each reunion class that doubled its class giving participation, she pledged to create a single-year term scholarship, to be presented to a deserving student in the class's name. Two classes, 2008 and 1993, had met the challenge by reunion weekend, doubling their number of donors over the previous year. The school's inaugural class of 1983 and McClaran's own class of 1998 met the challenge shortly afterward. "I'm thrilled that the challenge succeeded," says McClaran, a board-certified, small-animal surgeon at the Animal Medical Center in New York City. "I've benefited from my Cummings education every day, and I think it's important to give back." The class of 2008, the first to meet McClaran's challenge, harnessed social media to motivate classmates. "We used Facebook to post updates on how many people still needed to contribute and I think that helped a lot," says Trisha Oura, V08, who served as reunion co-chair for her class along with Misty Williams, V08. "I also think it helped that we made it clear that we weren't asking for large donations, since the majority of us still have a lot of student loan debt."

It's important for me to give back because Tufts was such a huge part in getting me to where I am today.
Matching gift challenges young alumni to reconnect By Dan Eisner When Stacey Morse, E77, lived in Hong Kong, she was struck by the reputation Tufts has earned there. Despite being 8,000 miles away, the university attracts many applicants from the densely populated Asian city.
The challenge's focus on financial aid made it particularly appealing, says Oura, a radiologist at Tufts Veterinary Emergency Treatment and Specialties (Tufts VETS) in Walpole, Mass., who lives in North Grafton with her husband, Sam Jennings, who is also a member of the class of 2008. "It's important for me to give back because Tufts was such a huge part in getting me to where I am today," Oura says. "I had such a positive experience there, and I want others to be able to have that same feeling. I also know that the cost of tuition is a real burden, and I'm happy to be able to make any small contribution that I can in order to help other students." McClaran says supporting the Cummings School is a priority. In addition to this year's challenge and her role on the school's board of advisors, she co-hosts an annual fundraising event for the school in New York City and travels to Grafton each year to participate in an internship panel for third- and fourthyear veterinary students. "Every time I am on campus, I hear about the constant innovation there," she says. "I'm contin ually impressed."
On Tufts' Medford campus in 1975: Morse, left, with Susan McGowan, J77, a dear friend to this day. Morse hopes to help forge such lifelong bonds between young alumni and the university.
The positive reputation Tufts enjoys is related to the strong local alumni community, which Morse got to know as leader of the Tufts Alumni Admissions Program in Hong Kong from 2005 to 2012. "Engaged alumni become better ambassadors for the school, wherever they live," she says. As a member of the board of advisors of both the School of Engineering and the Center for Engineering Education and Outreach, Morse has learned that lifelong alumni engagement is more likely to occur when graduates become reengaged within five years of leaving campus. This propelled her to offer a $75,000 matching gift, to be split evenly over five years, to encourage giving by young alumni. The matching challenge she is helping to fund will launch in March, when the Young Friends of Tuft Alumni will be holding events in Boston, New York, and Washington, D.C. "Sometimes young alumni think, 'I can't give enough to matter,'" says Morse. "With a matching program, if they give $20, they're actually giving $40. I hope it will encourage them to make a gift." Morse herself was unable to give much as a recent graduate. But she offered what she could and was able to contribute more over the years.

Morse says her primary goal is reconnecting more alumni to Tufts and their fellow graduates. But she recognizes the need for alumni to give back. "Tufts has become a more remarkable place and it's on a great trajectory," she says, "but in order to keep going, it's important to broaden the university's base of support."
"So many aspects of my life have been influenced by my Fletcher experience. Many of my closest friends are also Fletcher grads. I landed my first consulting job through a Fletcher connection. And I'm in touch virtually every day with someone from the school."

Bequest to pave way for scholars from South Asia By Divya Amladi
S Sloan
ince David Sloan left the Foreign Service in 1986, his career has primarily focused on India and South Asia. Sloan, A74, F75, helped a range of major corporations enter the Indian market while he was at a boutique consultancy headed by former U.S. Senator Charles Percy. After a visiting fellowship at the Rajiv Gandhi Institute for Contemporary Studies and a long tenure as the Scowcroft Group's South Asia specialist, he now serves as the Asia practice head for the Eurasia Group, which assesses political risk for leading global investors. A regular Fletcher School donor, Sloan decided he wanted to make a gift that would leave a lasting impact. Because of his close ties to the region, he is creating a scholarship to support students from India and elsewhere in South Asia. "I want to make sure that students from that critical region are attracted to Fletcher," he says. The David M. Sloan Endowed Scholarship Fund, which will be established through a bequest in his will, will help contribute to an enduring relationship between Fletcher and South Asia.
Carnegie Corporation grant underwrites global leadership studies Over the next two years, Tufts students will investigate the challenges facing the Middle East/North Africa and the former Soviet Union, thanks to a grant from the Carnegie Corporation of New York. The Institute for Global Leadership (IGL) secured the $200,000 grant from the Carnegie Corporation to train future international security leaders through academic research, interactive forums, mentoring, and internships. Based upon the institute's record of nearly three decades, the Carnegie Corporation considers the institute a "proven breeding ground for the next generation of international security leadership." The funding will cover activities focused on the Middle East and North Africa during the current academic year and on Russia and the former Soviet Union next year.
"Corruption, challenges to the rule of law, rising economic disparities, the collapse of states, and religious, sectarian, and political schisms all underscore the urgent need to develop a new

"In 10 to 15 years, the students we work with will be in positions to influence and contend with the new security environment." The IGL's yearlong academic colloquium this year is focused on the Middle East and North Africa. The Carnegie funding has allowed IGL to bring 12 to 15 experts from the region to its annual EPIIC (Education for Public Inquiry and International Citizenship) symposium and workshop this winter. Similarly, next year, the grant money will support the participation of experts from the former Soviet Union.
The Carnegie grant will also fund three fellows each year. The fellows will spend up to a month in residence at Tufts, offering guest lectures in classes, public lectures, and support to individual students working on research projects. This year one such fellow, former Iraqi National Security Adviser Dr. Mowaffak al-Rubaie, will also be a Fletcher School/IGL "Senior Statesman in Residence." In addition, IGL will use the grant to support global research and internships for students; an annual two-day gathering for Tufts alumni who work in U.S. foreign policy; a three-day civil-military roundtable in the spring of 2014, bringing together participants from the U.S. Military Academy, the U.S. Naval Academy, and the U.S. Air Force Academy, along with students from Tufts and other universities; and a photojournalism workshop in the former Soviet Union in late May 2014, organized by IGL's Program for Narrative and Documentary Practice. —Heather Stephenson

By helping to make fresh fruits and vegetables available and affordable for everyone, Lehnerd aims to improve community health. A student in the Agriculture, Food, and Environment program at the Gerald J. and Dorothy R. Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy at Tufts, Lehnerd co-leads a program that teaches nutrition and gardening to third-grade classes in Chinatown. And she partners with the Boston Collaborative for Food and Fitness as part of her Albert Schweitzer Fellowship, which supports graduate student projects addressing health disparities in vulnerable communities.
None of these efforts would be possible for Lehnerd without the scholarship she receives, which is funded by Ellen H. Block, BSOT66, chair of the board of advisors of the Friedman School. The scholarship supports outstanding Friedman School master's students who are committed to working in direct service to communities in the United States after graduation. Lehnerd's activities at Tufts underscore her already deep commitment to helping communities improve their health and well-being. "The Friedman School is unique in how it looks at all the aspects that feed into nutrition and creating better food systems," Lehnerd says. "I knew I wanted to come here but was unsure about the financial piece of it. Thanks to the Block Scholarship, I'm privileged in being able to continue my education and I know that I will pay that forward." —Kathy Hubbard

Advisor supports global literacy research 10
By Kristen Laine John Halvey, A82, A16P, understands how it can feel impossible to read. He was struggling through second grade when his teachers started accusing him of being lazy, of not trying hard enough. Halvey's mother, who was also a teacher, didn't believe them. She worked with her son, pursued a master's degree in reading, and eventually diagnosed his dyslexia. "I survived high school, thanks to my mom," says Halvey. "I wasn't an academically obvious choice, but Tufts took a chance on me." Halvey, and his wife Kristin, A16P, have stepped forward in recent years to put

a public face on dyslexia. One of their daughters is dyslexic, while their son has a related disorder called dysgraphia. Kristin also has other family members with dyslexia. In part, that personal history motivated John and Kristin Halvey to donate $250,000 to Tufts in support of the work of Professor Maryanne Wolf, A12P, director of the Center for Reading and Language Research in the Eliot-Pearson Department of Child Development, and one of the world's foremost scholars of dyslexia. Wolf's research on the neurological underpinnings of reading has
illuminated what she calls the "reading brain circuit" and the complex processes involved when children learn to recognize letters, combine their sounds to form words, and link them to create meaning. When the connections in young brains develop ideally, children are able to unlock the power of written knowledge and to build on it. When the process happens differently or too slowly, as in dyslexia, such knowledge— and a child's potential with it—remains locked up. An even stronger impetus behind the Halveys' gift involves unlocking that
potential in all children, and on a global scale. Wolf has joined an ambitious effort to develop basic literacy tools for more than 170 million children worldwide who have little or no access to schooling—a project she calls "the largest, most important research of my life." The project, supported by the Halveys' philanthropy, centers on a radical premise: Tablet computers loaded with the right learning tools and provided to children with no instruction or adult oversight can lead the children to teach themselves to make the complex connections among letters, sounds, words, and meaning. Wolf, who is collaborating with the MIT Media Lab, Georgia State University, and the Dalai Lama Center for Ethics and Transformative Values, is cautiously optimistic about the results from a pilot project involving children from two villages in Ethiopia. Most recently, the Vatican has invited Wolf to present the project's work to meetings of its Academy of Science, as part of the pope's efforts to eradicate global poverty. Despite his early struggles, Halvey went on to graduate magna cum laude from Tufts. He has written four books, and pursued a successful career at the intersection of technology, law, and finance. He is now a member of the School of Arts and Sciences Board of Advisors. Wolf remembers Halvey asking her, "What can I do to continue your work, your outsidethe-box research and its potential for global impact?" His question—and his gift—came at the exact right moment. "It's the intellectual generosity and vision of people like John Halvey," Wolf says, "that make the difference between something being impossible and something becoming a reality."

Green named first Winkler Professor By Dan Eisner
hen Dr. Daniel Green learned he would be the first professor to fill the new Winkler Professorship in Endodontics, he felt proud of the recognition of his research, teaching, and leadership. But he was pleased for another reason, too. "Tom Winkler and I were very close, personal friends—he was one of my best friends," Green says. "That makes the honor very special." Green met Dr. Thomas F. Winkler III, A62, D66, D10P, DG12P, shortly after arriving at Tufts University School of Dental Medicine in 1996. Green joined the school as chair of the Department of Endodontics and director of postgraduate endodontics, positions he still holds. Green and Winkler shared a love of their specialty, which focuses on the dental pulp and treatments such as root canal therapy. The two men quickly became friends. Winkler introduced Green to the woman who would become his wife, and Green served as a mentor for Winkler's daughter, Elizabeth Winkler Jones, D10, DG12, after she decided to specialize in endodontics. "He's so bright and charming and enigmatic, the kind of person others always gravitate to," she says. "So when he
News of Gi vi ng, Growth, and Grati t u d e
told me I would be a good endodontist, that made all the difference. From that moment on, I wanted to do my very best to prove him right. He brings that out in every single one of his residents." The professorship named after Winkler, who passed away in 2012, was bestowed upon Green to honor his many years of dedicated service to Tufts and the endodontic community. He has served as the executive director of the International Association of Dental Research and as editor of the Journal of Endodontics. "During his 17 years at Tufts, Dr. Green has emulated the level of service fostered by the professorship's namesake, Dr. Thomas Winkler III," says Dean Huw Thomas. "Dan's experience and expertise are exemplary, and he shares both with all to the betterment of our school." Winkler's deep commitment to the Tufts dental community was evident through his philanthropy and the time he devoted to the school. He served as a university trustee from 2000 to 2010 and as a chair of the board of advisors to the dental school from 2003 to 2010. He received the dental school Dean's Medal in 2008 in recognition of his 40 years of service as a mentor, volunteer clinical professor, and board representative.

Blueprint is published three times a year for alumni, parents, and friends who generously support Tufts University as donors and volunteers.
Meet the New Chairman
Blueprint asked Dolan to share his perspective on fitness, philanthropy, and the value of a Tufts degree.
Q. In your role as a volunteer, what do you want most for Tufts' future?
A. W e are all thinking about what is the best way to improve the Tufts value proposition. And that applies to both students and alumni. How can we give every great student we admit a unique and transformational experience? How can we engender even more alumni loyalty to the institution?
A. W ith this exceptional student body
This past fall, Peter R. Dolan, A78, A08P, took the helm of the Tufts Board of Trustees, succeeding James A. Stern, E72, A07P, who stepped down from his role as chairman following the November board meeting. Dolan has been a Tufts stalwart for three decades. Elected to the board in 2001, he has served on eight board committees and chaired the administration and finance, audit, and presidential search committees. He has sat on the executive committee since 2003 and was elected a vice chair of the board in 2008. A donor to a variety of Tufts schools and programs, Dolan chairs ChildObesity180, an initiative at the Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy aimed at reversing the childhood obesity trend through a multisector approach. He has helped to raise some $16 million for the initiative. Professionally, Dolan has been a leader at General Foods, Bristol-Myers Squibb (where he served as CEO from 2001 to 2006), Gemin X, and Vitality Health, a health and wellness company where he is a director. Dolan is an advisory board member of Valence Life Sciences. He has also served on the boards of the Partnership for a Healthier America, the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth College (from which he holds an M.B.A.), and the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University.
we're admitting, we need to make sure all of them take advantage of what Tufts has to offer. I went to a Senior Dinner this year and walked around asking students what they will be doing. Too many of them said, "I haven't figured it out yet." You know what? Your parents spent a lot of money for you to go here, and that's probably not as acceptable an answer today as it might have been in an easier employment market of 10 or 20 years ago. Graduate school, a bridge to graduate school plans, a job—whatever is right for you. That's what I mean about improving the value proposition. I would like to see us spending more time making the experience transformational for a larger percentage of the student body.
Q. G iven your work with a wellness company and initiatives such as ChildObesity180, you seem very healthconscious. Is yours a fitness-oriented family?
A. Y es, which is a little ironic. When I was at Tufts, we had very good intramural teams, but I would have struggled to run a mile. Today, the four of us can
lay claim to 12 marathons, 3 Hawaii Ironman competitions (my wife, Katie, has done it twice), dozens of 100-mile bike rides, and numerous shorter triathlons. When the younger of my two sons was doing a semester abroad in Barcelona, he decided to train for the Boston Marathon in 2009 and run for the Tufts Marathon Team. That quickly escalated to both of my sons, Katie, and me all toeing the starting line together in Hopkinton and raising money for the Friedman School as part of the Tufts team.
Q. R aising philanthropic support for key initiatives at Tufts is one of your priorities. What do you think is important for potential Tufts donors to know?
A. W hile we made huge strides with the last campaign, we still have a lot of work to do to improve our competitive position with our peer group. Relative to our peer schools, we have less endowment per student. We are playing catch-up in some areas. Strengthening our financial aid capacity, for example, would allow us to admit a more diverse student body.
Q. W hat is most gratifying about your work with the Tufts Board of Trustees?
A. W e have a terrific and committed board that functions exceptionally well. Our top priorities are to ensure that we have the best institutional leadership, to be a useful sounding board based on our collective experiences, to support the president, and to exercise our fiduciary responsibility. The most gratifying aspect is that, even with that serious agenda, they are fun to be with.

The colourful history of Waldhaus Flims also has its place in Switzerland's hotel history. Part of the history of tourism. Part of architectural history. Part of art history. And the blend of tradition and innovation in order to perfect the art of hospitality. A very special type of cultural hotel.
The Kur- und Seebadanstalt Waldhaus Flims is founded by two Chur natives, Peter-Jakob Bener-Caviezel and Dr Paul Lorenz. The municipality of Flims grants them the permit to build a spa.
The Kurhaus opens and has an initial capacity of 120 beds, a sawmill, a post office building with stables and a pub room, laundry, cow shed, plumbing for running water in the kitchen and a small bathing facility on the edge of the Caumasee. Johann Guggenbühl, the former manager of Zürcherhof, becomes Director of the establishment.
With the opening of Villa Belmont, the number of guest rooms increases to 200, and the hotel hires its own doctor for the spa.

I utilize vncviewer (ultra-vnc) on alot of my machines and servers internally and was wondering if somebody has figured how to include this in the spiceworks program. It's be nice to 'see' a machine and utilize the same software to somehow 'launch' a connection at the same place - instead of having to go 'outside'. I know the program (vnc) would load another program -but utilizing it within spiceworks would be pretty cool.
This topic was created during version 5.2.
The latest version is 7.5.00101.

Should already be implemented. Check this out.
Not sure if it detects different ports properly or not but that should give you a good start.
Nov 18, 2011 at 7:52 UTC
That seems to work as far as initiating the 'connection' - but spiceworks isn't recognizing that i have 'ultraVNC' installed and therefor isn't triggering the correction attempt. . What I mean is that the connection attempt tried to launch .rdp - and that isn't on that pictular box - but vnc 'only'.
any other suggestions - or a method of changing the association for specific devices?

A disturbing video of a Canadian University student leaders participating in a pro-rape chant has shocked and outraged everyone unanimously.
A chant that happened at a Saint Mary's University event called "Turf Burn" on Monday seems to have been a tradition since at least 2009.
Its video was first posted on Instagram by a student and it went viral from there. Though it was later deleted but a lot of people had already seen it by then.
The video shows SMU male and female students chanting to the incoming freshman,"SMU boys, we like them young. Y is for your sister. O is for oh-so-tight. U is for underage. N is for no consent. G is for grab that ass."
The backlash to the video was severe and when the officials got to know about the news they instantly stated their apologies:
"My colleagues and I were shocked by this incident and are deeply sorry that our students, and now the community at large, were exposed to disturbing sexually charged material," SMU President Colin Dodd said in a statement."
Later, the president of the SMU Student Association, Jared Perry resigned from his post and said:
"It is with deep reflection that I tender my resignation." Perry said in a media release. "I believe this action is in the best interests of the students, the association and the university."
Carrigan Desjardins, who was responsible for the frosh week program also resigned from the position of student vice-president.
The fact that a blunt pro-rape message could be simply accepted by so many students both men and women is horrible. But it seems like a teachable moment as the students appear to have learnt their lesson and have sincerely realized that the chant was highly inappropriate.

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2017
England with the ancestors of the Lear family in the Norman Conquest of 1066. The Lear family lived in Leicestershire. This surname was originally derived from the Old French de L'Eyre, a reference to a place in the arrondissement of Evreux in Normandy.
Lear Early Origins
Leicestershire where they held a family seat from early times.
Lear Spelling Variations
Lear Spelling Variations
Multitudes of spelling variations are a hallmark of Anglo Norman names. Most of these names evolved in the 11th and 12th century, in the time after the Normans introduced their own Norman French language into a country where Old and Middle English had no spelling rules and the languages of the court were French and Latin. To make matters worse, medieval scribes spelled words according to sound, so names frequently appeared differently in the various documents in which they were recorded. The name was spelled Lear, Leare, Leer, Leere and others.

The Great Migration
The Great Migration
Because of this political and religious unrest within English society, many people decided to immigrate to the colonies. Families left for Ireland, North America, and Australia in enormous numbers, traveling at high cost in extremely inhospitable conditions. The New World in particular was a desirable destination, but the long voyage caused many to arrive sick and starving. Those who made it, though, were welcomed by opportunities far greater than they had known at home in England. Many of these families went on to make important contributions to the emerging nations of Canada and the United States. Analysis of immigration records indicates that some of the first North American immigrants bore the name Lear or a variant listed above:
Lear Settlers in United States in the 17th Century

We are officially sailing into the middle of the fall, while the leaves start abandoning their trees that were their home for the past eight months and with these chilly mornings we also get to see many new fall fragrances being released that sadly play a second role in between so many new collections and fashion weeks around the world. But here are we, ready to update you with the latest colognes blast and its campaigns. Are you ready to become the best smelling chick at the office?
Within the new strongest visual campaigns are Kenzo and and Chanel N°5. Kenzo opted for a very strong campaign, visually and musically. Margaret Qualley was in charge of making this campaign possible by using her dancing skills and taking them to a whole new level of wildness and quirkiness. She managed to transmit strength, wildness and freedom in a rocking and lovely uneven green dress matching some black heels at the same time.
KENZO World – Le nouveau von VOGUEPARIS
On the other hand, Chanel stays truth to its classics and chose to trust the French-American young and new talent, Lily-Rose Depp with its new Chanel N°5 fragrance campaign. Lily-Rose followed her mums steps who also had the opportunity of representing the French original fashion house back in the 90s. Chanel, in comparison to Kenzos new campaign, keeps its propaganda very French-style, exactly like Coco would have done it; classic, chic and feminine.
However, after a short recap on the newest of fragrances' visual material, let us go back to our main purpose which was making you the best-smelling jolie fille in the room for the rest of the fall days. So here are five of the newest bottled aromas out there. Each of them offers a complete different scented experience and totally different smells and spices.

Marathon Income, Merchandise Sales Up
Company is well positioned to grow as economy recovers, CEO states.
HOUSTON -- Marathon Oil Corp.'s first quarter 2010 net income reached $457 million, compared to $282 million in the year-ago quarter. The company's Speedway SuperAmerica retail convenience store chain also posted a positive quarter of increased fuel margins and merchandise sales.
When adjusted for special items, net income was $315 million, up from the $240 million a year ago. Revenue for the first quarter 2010 was $15.8 billion, up from $10.1 billion in the comparable quarter of 2009.
"Marathon delivered a strong operating performance across its businesses and solid financial results in the first quarter despite the largest amount of planned maintenance and turnaround activity in the company's history," Clarence P. Cazalot Jr., Marathon's president and CEO, said in a statement. "With most of that work now behind us, the company is well positioned to benefit from the ongoing global economic recovery and, in particular, from much better oil prices compared to this time last year and improving margins for refined products."
However, the company's refining, marketing and transportation segment saw a loss of $237 million in the first quarter 2010, compared to income of $159 million in the first quarter of 2009.
The company's Speedway SuperAmerica LLC (SSA) retail convenience store chain increased average gasoline and distillate gross margin per gallon to 11.95 cents in the first quarter of 2010, compared to 10.68 cents in the first quarter of 2009. SSA first quarter same-store gasoline sales volumes were substantially unchanged, at 783 million gallons, compared to the first quarter of 2009, but same-store merchandise sales increased approximately 7 percent for the same period, to $731 million, according to the company.
During the first quarter, Speedway was also ranked the nation's top retail gasoline brand for the second consecutive year, according to the 2010 EquiTrend Brand Study conducted by Harris Interactive.
The refining and wholesale marketing gross margin per gallon was a negative 5.69 cents in the first quarter of 2010, compared to a positive 7.92 cents in the first quarter of 2009. The lower margin was attributed to incrementally higher crude oil costs relative to refined product values across comparable quarters and lower wholesale prices relative to applicable spot market values, quarter over quarter, plus other factors.
Marathon's exploration and production (E&P) segment income totaled $502 million in the first quarter of 2010, compared to $83 million in the first quarter of 2009, primarily due to higher liquid hydrocarbon price realizations. E&P sales volumes during the quarter averaged 361,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boepd), down from the 393,000 boepd for the same period last year. United States E&P reported income of $109 million for the first quarter of 2010, compared to a loss of $52 million in the first quarter of 2009, mainly related to a 98-percent increase in liquid hydrocarbon realizations, according to the company.
"Looking forward, our goals are unchanged and remain focused on delivering top-quartile financial and shareholder returns. We'll do that by continuing to control expenses, operating our businesses in a reliable and sustainable manner as well as maintaining our disciplined approach to capital investment," Cazalot said.

Kids love making things, and kids love dinosaurs. There is just something intriguing to them about the monstrous lizards that once roamed the earth. Making crafts is a great way to teach children about many subjects, and making a dinosaur they can decorate and keep is especially rewarding. This is an inexpensive, fun project for children to make.
Things You'll Need
- Any thick 8.5-by-11 paper
- Scissors
- Stapler
- Crayons, paint or markers
- Newspaper or tissue
Making the dinosaur
Step 1: Choose the type of dinosaur to make. A link is provided in the resources section for free, printable dinosaur templates. Ensure that the dinosaur you choose will fit on the paper. If not, you will need to scale the template to size before printing.
Step 2: Cut out the chosen template.
Step 3: Use two sheets of paper and make two identical tracings of the dinosaur.
Step 4: Cut out the tracings and staple them together using one for each side of the dinosaur. Leave a hole at the top large enough to stuff with the newspaper or tissue.
Step 5: Decorate the dinosaur by coloring it, drawing scales, eyes, nostrils and mouth.
Step 6: Carefully stuff the dinosaur with crumbled paper.
Step 7: Staple the remaining hole closed.
Tips & Warnings
- Tearing the newspaper or tissue paper into thin strips will make stuffing the dinosaur much easier.
- An adult should help small children with all cutting and stapling.

Former 'Home Alone' Star's Startling Look
February 9, 2012 by staff
Former 'Home Alone' Star's Startling Look, Macaulay Culkin stepped out in New York yesterday looking extremely thin and scruffy in exclusive photos obtained by ET that are likely to spark concern for the actor's health. Thankfully Culkin's rep tells ET, "Macaulay Culkin is in perfectly good health."
Culkin, 31, also posed for a photo with a fan on the street and can be seen holding a can of Red Bull.
The star rose to fame playing the adorable eight-year-old child Kevin McCallister in the hugely successful Home Alone films. But his career as a child star later became overshadowed by a highly-publicized dispute with his parents, whom he sued amid allegations that they had mishandled his fortune.

I usually make my own fondant, but I need quite a bit for an upcoming wedding cake, probably a 20 lb bucket. So, I'm looking to save some time by purchasing some already tinted. I need ivory, but I think that the Satin Ice ivory is a little too ivory for what I need. It looks almost peach to me. Does anyone know if there's a brand that sells off white fondant. Or should I just buy white and tint it myself.
Maybe buy the ivory and buy some white (a 10 lb?) and then mix together.
Yep, thats what I do when I need cream and not ivory.
thanks guys, I didn't think of mixing white and ivory together

Thomas Peters, the infamous American Papist and Communications Director for Robbie George's American Principles Project, wants his toy back.
CNS has run an article about charges Peters made regarding the closure of Catholics hospitals. The charges turn out to be demonstrably false. On Monday, Peters trumpeted a story about Catholic hospitals in Scranton being sold to non-Catholic entrepreneurs because of "Obamacare." The article was in the American Spectator, the long-time house organ of the ranting right, one step away (if that) from John Birch Society-quality conspiracy theories, and hardly a reliable source for information. He used the article to try and help raise money for an organization that hosts his American papist blog and that wants to run ads against Democratic candidates in the Scranton area because, of course, Democrats are the root of all evil. Here was a great selling point: If it could be proven that the health care reform was causing Catholic hospitals to close, the true nefarious intent of "Obamacare" would be exposed. Never mind that the hospitals in question had been in financial difficulties for years and had been negotiating, long before the vote on health care reform, with potential buyers.
If that was not enough, there was the evil one, Sr. Carol Keehan, CEO of the Catholic Health Association, pointing out that it would difficult to ascribe the demise of the Catholic hospitals to a law that is still only in the initial stages of implementation and that the hospitals in Scranton had long been struggling. We all know, in Peters' worldview, that Sr. Carol would say anything and do anything to support Obama. And, we all know, in Peters' worldview, that Sr. Carol is disloyal to the bishops. He has the quotes to back it up, and goes on to cite a thoroughly discredited article from the Catholic News Agency, putting words in Cardinal George's mouth that Cardinal George has repeatedly said were not his words.
We refreshed our website! Drop us a line at firstname.lastname@example.com to tell us what you think. We value your feedback.
This is how the right-wing works these days. They feed off of bad reporting from news outfits that have brazen ideological agendas and little regard for facticity. They devise conspiracy theories that bear no resemblance to the facts. They embellish quotes and, if need be, fabricate them, and then repeat the fabrications.
Of course, Peters does not confront the main point of the CNS article which is that the sale of the hospitals is not related to the health care reform law. He is too busy demonizing Sr. Carol and CNS. He is flabbergasted that CNS is, after all, run by the bishops. Like George Weigel reading papal encyclicals with his gold and red pens, deciding which passages deserve respect as magisterial teaching and which don't, Peters likes the bishops when they like him, but surely it is the work of Satan when the bishops' own news agency directly contradicts, with facts and quotes, assertions he made based on shoddy reporting at the Spectator.
Peters is all smoke and mirrors, the Catholic blogosphere's equivalent of Christine O'Donnell, a man possessed of clichés, slogans, misinformation and platitudes that he has mistaken for a worldview. He rants against Obama. He reproaches Sr. Carol. He regurgitates GOP talking points. If you like that sort of thing, he has a certain talent. Perhaps he should run for the Senate in Delaware someday.

I know there is something that was passed. it may not be called what I called it. However, it does have to do with 'why one spouse gave interest over to another" I am not satisfied with this answer.

Evil Joy Speaks
Work stories...
In July I was driving a gentleman to another airport, this is common. It takes several hours but it allows me to bond with my passenger(s). It is almost always a blessing. This particular day I was telling him about some of my interesting passengers or experiences at the airport.
He said "well let me tell you, my job isn't as exciting but I do get some great excuses for missing work from my salesmen". We both laughed, I used to work on a car lot years ago and salesmen are ALWAYS trying to con you about something. So he goes on..."This young kid was working for me and left for lunch one day with his girlfriend. All the salesmen loved when she came in, a real looker. So he leaves at noon, one o'clock rolls around he's not back, two still not back, three nothing, four and he strolls in. The manager calls him to his office. Okay son, what's up. You left here FOUR hours ago for lunch. The young man replies, yes sir, I was tied up. No son not for four hours tell me the truth. Yes sir I did, I was tied up with my girlfriend. Son I'll give you one more chance. No sir you don't understand, I was TIED UP BY my girlfriend.
The manager looks at the assistant manager and says "well I've seen his girlfriend so I'm gonna let it go". ROTL WOW really?!
Driving out of town to pick up a client and I pass a gas station. There is a man standing in the middle of the parking lot blowing his nose. Okay that would be okay except he has no tissue, he is going at it! Hand to the side of his nose just blowing into the air, snot flowing. GROSS what is wrong with people?!
I picked up a lady and then drive her to pick up her preteen from camp. Several hours later we are on our way to our final destination and she is asking him all sorts of questions.
What did you eat from breakfast? Lunch? Dinner?
What did you learn to eat that you didn't like before? Green beans, to which she was thrilled.
What new foods did you try that you now like? "OOH these biscuits from BoJangles with blueberries in them!"
She said "WHAT? A biscuit with blueberries? Dawn do you know what he's talking about?"
"Yes ma'am I do. They are called BoBerry Biscuits and they are delicious!"
"oh, well is there anyway we could stop and get one?" Her son quickly says "THREE"
She laughs and says "you can't eat three" he says "oh yes I can"
I laugh and tell her yes, there is a BoJo right down the road.
On the way in, she stopped and said, "what should I expect?"
I laughed, " well, they are buttermilk biscuits with blueberries in them along with sugar, baked and drizzled with a delicious glaze. Be careful, they are addicting."
She goes in and makes her purchases. Her son is devouring these boberries and she said "okay let me try a bite" She takes one bite and says "OH MY GOSH DAWN these are FABulous! and in a few minutes she says "OH NO I just ate a whole one!!"
This cracks me up! We're talking a tall, tan, gorgeous blonde from NY who eats VERY healthy and she just devoured a boberry biscuit! (you can find my quick easy version here) I said now aren't you glad there's no BOJO in NY? She said YES I'd be fat!
Girl friend would have to eat a LOT of biscuits to be fat!!
I had a WONDERFUL weekend recently, I visited Minette and Mike. Minette is Southern Belle Charm! We had the best time. And that precious dumpling in the bottom corner is Duke, my new buddy. NO the LEFT bottom corner silly, the right corner is me!!
My DIL - Daughter-in-law (one of them) is a radio production manager and DJ. The perks, free concerts and other events. She had the joy of attending SuperCon a few hours from us recently and she took my granddaughter. LMSP...oh you can only imagine! Yep she was the hit, the bell of the ball, the queen of the day. The only kid there AND dressed up! Several characters wanted their picture taken with her, to include...TOMMY the original Green Ranger then turned White Ranger from the original series Power Rangers!!
Isn't that the coolest thing ever? If you think not, just nod and smile, it's okay.
Working so many hours, when I am home on weekends my poor kitty wants to do nothing but lay me. serious I kid you not.
Top left...me trying to sleep in
Middle photo...me trying to work
Bottom photo...me giving in
So Jesse and I are having this discussion about life, relationships,and hard lessons we have both learned over the past few years. He says to me "well mom, I've learned a lot and back when I was in my 20's..."
I said "wait a minute, Jesse you ARE in your 20's!"
We both start laughing and he says "okay, back in my early 20's"
I said "Jesse, you're only 25!"
He says "MOM...okay fine, when I was 18-20 is that better?!"
ROTFL poor boy has been through so much he has an old soul now.
So much more has happened to include finding a condom in the back seat of one of our cars at work, being hit on by every man under 90 this past week, seeing a dog take a dump in the middle of the airport, watching a fight break out at the rental counter, and much more. My life is definitely not boring.

Mamas, did you have your babies Baptized?
I don't want to spark any religious debate.. that's not what this is about.. just curious if you did.. how old they were and how they did during the Baptism :) Monroe will be getting Baptized in a few weeks!
Comment deleted
Monroe loves you! I let you know how he does with the water on his head :) I am predicting a giggle or squeal.. haha
That's great! I don't plan on baptizing Lucas, but more of a dedication. I was baptized though. Let me know how he does!!! And you gotta take pictures because, as always, I'm sure he'll be dressed up so cute!!
Comment deleted
same in our family. We are waiting when Mark is ready by his own choice
I did not and will not. We're not at all religious so there's just no point to it.
with our daughter we haven't had her baptised yet but we did have her dedicated when she was about 6 weeks old

For one reason or another, some designers go absolutely bonkers when it comes time to decorate a simple little box clutch. I'm not sure if it's because the small proportion lends itself more easily to making big ideas wearable or if the structured feel of the bags makes them easier to decorate intricately, but it seems as though Corto Moltedo Spring 2011 takes note of both of those advantages.
I took the liberty of using the spider clutch as a feature because Halloween is quickly approaching and it's my favorite holiday, but the motifs you'll find in this collection are as varied as a summer day is long. From a pale, modernist American flag to sunny painted python to sober forged metal leaves, relative newcomer Moltedo offers a little something for everyone. Everyone who likes a crazy clutch, that is.
