Contango Asset Management will pursue growth in the retail and self-managed supermarkets as part of a restructure that saw the fund manager part with George Boubouras, its former managing director, last week. Marty Switzer, Contango's interim boss, said on Monday: "I think this change is all about repositioning the business to focus on the areas where we see the most growth potential in the listed investment space," specifying that "an area where we believe we've got a lot of strength is SMSF and retail". Chairman Roger Amos advised the market of the departure of Mr Boubouras on Friday. Mr Switzer is a Contango director as well as serving on the board of Switzer Asset Management, a business that is co-owned by Contango and the Switzer Financial Group. Switzer Asset Management is already planning to add an active fixed income product for retail investors. [More]
In funds management, where people and performance are everything, James Packer's latest deal is highly unusual. Mr Packer's $13 million investment in Contango Asset Management demands that certain key staff at the Melbourne-based boutique accept that they will not be paid bonuses, and instead take equity stakes in the business. It's a model that George Boubouras, the fund's chief investment officer who led the management buyout of of Contango that Mr Packer and his chief aide Rob Ranking have backed, hopes will serve as a template to better align the interests of staff, owners and clients. He suspects they may be forced to do it anyway, as large institutions such as sovereign and pension funds demand changes to the way fund managers and their staff reward themselves. [More]
Contango chief investment officer and director George Boubouras said the buyout is the "first step in an exciting future" for the business. "The Contango Asset Management team is highly motivated to grow the business into one of Australia's pre-eminent fund managers," he said. "We look to the future success of the business with great enthusiasm and confidence." Pacific Point Partners, an investment vehicle controlled by James Packer and Robert Rankin, will be a cornerstone investor in the sale, with a subscription of 19.9 per cent in the transaction. Contango Asset Management is responsible for a number of listed investment companies including Contango Income Generator (ASX: CIE), whose chair supports the transition. [More]
Contango Asset Management's investment chief George Boubouras has been hitting the pavement up the Paris end of Melbourne's Collins Street spruiking a new "nano-cap" fund. The fund is rumoured to be targeting $50 million to $100 million and is expected to be born as a spin-off to Contango's 12-year old listed microcap investment company. The pitch is understood to be all about finding a home for those tiny beauties Contango's team comes across. It's expected to seek out stocks with a sub-$30 million market capitalisation, which makes them too small for the existing microcap mandate. It is not known yet whether the new nano-cap fund will be structured as the group's third listed investment company. Contango launched its second LIC, the $71.5 million income generator fund, last year. It has been a busy 18 months for the former Equity Trustees and UBS Asset Management investment chief Boubouras since he joined Contango in December 2014. [More]

Article Title
Legislating Beyond an Educated Guess: The Growing Consensus Toward a Right to Education
Document Type
Book Review
First Page
In Retained by the People, Daniel A. Farber argues for a robust renaissance of Ninth Amendment jurisprudence in analyses of fundamental rights, because this amendment and its history most clearly encompass the Framers' belief that certain rights are retained by the people. Farber argues that fundamental rights are at their most vulnerable when rooted in the inherently procedural structure of the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. This book review criticizes the factors Farber uses to determine whether a given right is fundamental and argues that legislation must be the most important factor in discerning fundamental rights that are so-retained, particularly when the Court has explicitly denied the existence of a disputed right. When applied to the right to education, the overwhelmingly bipartisan passage of the No Child Left Behind Act indicates that this right is indeed retained by the people.

Usad-1 Robot (with Dr. Al- Dajani)
The aim is to design and realize a combat robot used for dangerous operations. The robot will be based on a simple quad. The mechanical and hardware are done. The putting it together job with interfacing and software is yet to be done.
This project needs 2 students.
Secure Payment System
|This project aims at designing and realizing a
hardware cost-effective, smart card payment system to be used over
the internet.
The payment system will be based on pre-paid personal payment cards.
SystemC- based Parallel Simulator
|please read this file
Instruction-Set Design and Experimentation tool
|In the COE-308 course, there are a lot of Computer
Architecture issues that need to be learned by students in a highly
interactive way. These architectural issues cannot easily be
assimilated by the students unless the students themselves are
involved in the architectural trade-off process.
This project's goal is to develop an educational tool that will facilitate architectural experimentation for CPU design. The tool will be used by the COE-308 students to perform "real" architectural assignments.
The tool will allow students to design ISAs and to experiment guided datapath design to realize the ISA. The tool will also include an assembly and a simulator. The tool should be able to support the students in:
The tool is to be realized in software as a GUI-based tool.

|Wireless Meter Reading Terminal
|The goal of this project is to build a meter reader
terminal for reading regular utilities meters. The aim is to make
utility companies agents trips inside the homes unnecessary by
enabling a wireless access to the reading information.
To have a universal reading, the easiest way is to use image capture to simply take a snapshot of the meter and transmit this snapshot on a wireless interface to the agent outside.
The agent should be able to come by car to collect the information about the meters in a selected neighborhood. The terminal is operated as follows:

|The idea is to implement a system that eases the
process of picking up children from schools with the goal to
minimize waiting time for the parent/driver. The system should work
as follows:

James Elmes
James Elmes (15 October 1782, London – 2 April 1862, Greenwich) was an English architect, civil engineer, and writer on the arts.
Elmes was educated at Merchant Taylors' School, and, after studying building under his father, and architecture under George Gibson, became a student at the Royal Academy, where he gained the silver medal in 1804. He designed a large number of buildings in London, and was surveyor and civil engineer to the Port of London, but is best known as a writer on the arts.[1] He exhibited at the Royal Academy between 1801 and 1842. [2] He was vice-president of the London Architectural Society from its foundation in 1806.[3]
In 1813-4 he restored the top part of the spire of Chichester Cathedral, reconstructing the pendulum device incorporated into it by Sir Christopher Wren to counteract the effects of strong winds. Elmes described the contraption in his biography of Wren, calling it "one of the most ingenious and appropriate of its great inventor's applications."[4]
He was the founder and editor of the Annals of the Fine Arts, a quarterly magazine published between 1816 and 1820. The content of the periodical was greatly influenced by the views of the historical painter Benjamin Robert Haydon, with whom Elmes had become friends while both were still students at the Royal Academy. Elmes claimed to have written the first review of Haydon's work ever published, in the Monthly Magazine in 1806.[5] He also edited the Magazine of the Fine Arts and Monthly Review from 1821.[6]
Elmes resigned from his post with the Port of London in 1848, due to a loss of sight, from which he later partially recovered.[6]
He died at Greenwich on 2 April 1862, and was buried at Charlton.[6] The architect Harvey Lonsdale Elmes was his son.
John Haviland, who became a successful prison architect in the United States was his pupil.[7]
His buildings included:
- St John the Evangelist's Church, Chichester (1812–13) built in the Classical-style as an Anglican proprietary chapel. The Grade I-listed building is now redundant and in the care of the Churches Conservation Trust.[8][9][10]
- The New House of Correction, Bedford (1819).[11] Sited on the main road from Bedford to Kettering, it was arranged on the panopticon system.[12] The building was demolished 1851.[11]
- A block of large terraced houses at 6–12, Queen Anne's Gate, Westminster (1837). Number 6 was built as the Parliamentary Agency Offices. Designed in collaboration with Harvey Lonsdale Elmes.[13]
Elmes published:[14]
- A Letter to Thomas Hope, Esq., on the Insufficiency of the existing Establishments for Promoting the Fine Arts towards that of Architecture and its Professors (1813).
- Hints for the Improvement of Prisons, and for a more Economical Management of Prisoners, partly founded on the Principles of John Howard (1817).
- New Churches. A Letter to the Earl of Liverpool on that part of the Speech of H.R.H. the Prince Regent which recommends the attention of Parliament to the Deficiency in the Number of Places of Public Worship belonging to the Established Church (1818).
- Lectures on Architecture, comprising the History of the Art (1821).
- Memoirs of the Life and Works of Sir Christopher Wren (1823).
- The Arts and Artists; or. Anecdotes and Relics of the Schools of Painting, Sculpture, and Architecture (3 volumes,1825).
- A General and Bibliographical Dictionary of the Fine Arts (1826).
- Metropolitan Improvements, or London in the Nineteenth Century (1827). Elmes' text accompanied a series of engravings after drawings by Thomas Hosmer Shepherd. John Summerson described the book as "a useful and nearly complete, guide to the new buildings of George IV's London", while regretting that the it was written "in the style of a facetious cicerone".[15]

NEW YORK (CBS.MW) -- Last year, Waste Management shareholders breathed a sigh of relief when the company was taken over by USA Waste Services.
It turns out that feeling of relief was premature.
Before the merger, Waste Management WMI, -1.15% shareholders had weathered a volatile couple of years that were marked by a bitter proxy fight and an accounting scandal. They watched the value of the stock plummet as the battle for control of the company played out, ending ultimately in its sale.
Burn me once, shame on you . . .
Guiding the company through the tumult was Robert "Steve" Miller. Known as a turnaround specialist, Miller was saddled with the formidable tasks of soothing investors' anger and regaining their confidence.
On Monday, Miller found himself reprising that role. And investors were again demanding answers to a number of different questions.
The company said Monday its top executives were stepping down and that Miller was again being installed to oversee the replacement of its leadership. Waste Management also said it would fall short of consensus estimates for the second half of the 1999 fiscal year -- its third earnings warning in two months. See story.
To make matters worse, the Houston-based company has also been under fire recently amid allegations that top executives sold stock ahead of the profit warnings.
One class-action suit alleges that Waste Management executives inflated the company's second-quarter earnings expectations and sold stock while claiming the earnings would meet those projections; second-quarter results fell well short of the company's purported expectations. After the company warned on July 6 and July 29 that it wouldn't meet profit forecasts, Waste Management stock fell to $25 a share from $53, a decline exceeding 50 percent.
Burn me twice, shame on me
Investors who were looking for a more independent style of auditing at the new Waste Management were perhaps the most frustrated.
"The question arises that when you have a very large company such as this -- given its track record --why wasn't there an outside body that could be trusted," to make sure the company was being especially vigilant, said Eric Orts, a professor of management at the Wharton School.
Waste Management's board may have been lulled into complacency by the merger, failing to put stricter compliance measures in place.
"If the company is on notice, what is the board's responsibility? What internal processes are in place to detect illegal activity?" Orts asked.
And finally, Orts said, "Where were the accountants here? Was there a responsibility on their part to take special measures?
"Maybe they tried. But this is certainly the type of thing shareholders will wonder about."

My first blog post aaah. I have been toying on the idea of starting a blog for ages now but I was scared off, maybe a little too easily, I mean your first blog post has to be one of the best ones, right? So for me (an unbelievably indecisive person) it was an insane challenge to actually make a decision what to write about. So. I'm going to keep it simple, and very general.
The sun finally deciding to make its presence is worth talking about.
Summer. A time of year us Brits get thoroughly excited for, despite knowing that we will be disappointed for majority of the season. We dream that we'll be spending the summer on the beach eating ice cream, everyone loves a good Mr. Whippy ice cream with a flake! But realistically this rarely happens.
Well, finally, we've got lucky. Two whole weeks of amazing weather, reassuring you that actually that beach holiday to Benidorm where you will literally sit down doing nothing for a whole week really isn't all that necessary. Yay! Time to start saving for an autumn weekend away to Paris instead! It actually worries me how excited I am to hopefully go to Paris in October for my birthday despite the fact I haven't even got close to booking it yet.
I hope you enjoyed reading this and I promise more exciting blog posts in the near future.

The eye can be analyzed with relative ease as to both its function and its structure. A practical evaluation includes the ability to relocate the orbit and the reaction of the student to light and lodging.
The function of the eye may be checked in numerous ways. The patient may be asked to identify illuminated letter or things of differing sizes on exactly what is referred to as the Snellen chart.
Conversely, the assessment of the structural part of the eye might be made in several ways. Stress within the eyeball is measured by a "tonometer." In particular illness, especially in glaucoma, the tension in the eyeball is increased markedly.
However, it must be well kept in mind that a client with an eye issue might have other problems too. Frequently other physical conditions are main and impact the eye as a repercussion. The look of the eye can notify the physician and the client to difficulties in some disruptions of other parts of the body even before other symptoms present themselves.
One's reliance on sight is emphasized when one deals with a possible or momentary irreversible loss of this important sense. For this reason, when corrective steps are looked for, particular kinds of vision correction such as contact lenses or glasses are recommended.
On the other hand, some individuals are troubled with that they have actually some framed lenses or contact lenses in front of their eyes.
For this factor, advanced surgeries were developed to encourage decreased usage of contact lenses or glasses. One of which is the now popular LASIK eye surgical treatment.
Generally, LASIK eye surgery is the short-term for "Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis." Like its tangible equivalent, LASIK eye surgical treatment is another kind of vision correction. The only difference is that with this kind of surgery, one's vision is fixed completely.
With LASIK eye surgical treatment, the refractive mistakes in the cornea are permanently transformed. This can be done utilizing an "excimer laser."
The main purpose of this surgery is to produce a threadlike, rounded "flap" in the cornea utilizing a blade known as "microkeratome." In a series of unfolding and laser processing, the cornea is finally reformed, permitting better the eye to direct more light into the retina.
Popularity vs. Disadvantages
Amidst the growing popularity of LASIK eye surgical treatment, there are still disadvantages that individuals must understand. Probably, the primary reason this kind of eye surgery has actually ended up being well accepted is because the majority of its cases had actually been successful.
In spite original site of its success, there are still some drawbacks. Here is the list:
1. It is an operation applied to the most sensitive part of the eye
Since LASIK eye surgical treatment includes the operation of the retina, which is one of the most sensitive portions of the eye, many individuals state that the operation can be very dangerous.
In other words, a easy error could nearly trigger an person's lifetime blindness. For this reason, it is very important to think about lots of elements prior to deciding whether LASIK eye surgery is the best restorative procedure one has to go through.
2. It is not a ideal treatment
LASIK eye surgical treatment may remedy your vision however it does not always mean that it can give you a twenty-twenty. Even if statistical reports reveal that 70% of the clients may have 20/20 vision, this does not always indicate they have perfect vision.
Given all these things, it can be deduced that, in spite of the appeal of the operation, LASIK might not constantly be the perfect eye surgical treatment the way the majority of people see it
On the other hand, the assessment of the structural part of the eye may be made in numerous ways. It must be well remembered that a patient with an eye issue may have other issues. Often other physical conditions are primary and impact the eye as a consequence. The appearance of the eye can signal the patient and the physician to problems in some disturbances of other parts of the body even prior to other signs provide themselves.
Like its concrete counterpart, LASIK eye surgery is another type of vision correction.

Boys Don't Cry... Real Men Do
By Chris Kavan - 06/26/10 at 08:54 AM CT
Reading that Toy Story 3 packed enough punch to make grown men cry - I'm not ashamed or afraid to admit that certain films get to me. Not just classic weepers like Old Yeller and Brian's Song either. Here is my unabashed list of films that make me tear up every time:
5) Return of the Jedi: I take no pains to hide I'm a huge Star Wars fan. In a movie that opens with a slug of a hutt and ends with furry ewoks, it's the final scene of all the principle cast together that makes a fitting end. Here's one place where the extended edition got it right: John Williams new score, as opposed to the yub-yub ewok song in the original, truly provides a fitting end to timeless series.
4) Spirited Away: Hayao Miyazaki has made many fine animated films, but this is my favorite one. When the characters make a connection it is powerful, as is the one between Chihiro and Haku - when she realizes who he truly is, and gives him back his true name, it's pure magic on screen.
3) Lord of the Rings: And here's one where I prefer the original edition instead of the extended cut. Don't ask me why, but when Gandalf rides into the Shire in the very beginning of Lord of the Rings with all the kids calling him, combined with the music, something just strikes me. Even I can't say for sure why this one hits me so hard, but it does, every single time.
2) Almost Famous: There's a reason this ranks so high with me - the characters, the music, the journalism - I feel I can relate on many levels. If you don't feel some emotion when they sing "Tiny Dancer" on that tour bus, I feel bad. Ranks as one of my favorite scenes in any film, ever, and never fails to get to me.
1) Big Fish: Whimsical story about a man's embellished life, but when father passes on the story and his son takes over - I guess Billy Crudup (see also Almost Famous) must have a lock on getting to my emotional core. Tim Burton has made many dark films, some funny, some serious, but this is one film that is guaranteed to make me cry at that time.
Is there anyone else man enough to admit that certain films make them cry? I bared my soul, I promise I won't be critical of your choices. Well, too critical anyway.

Walking back home through the boulevard,
I realized some child cry hard.
With etched fear, I decided to see,
What it could actually be.
Peeping through the air vent,
Being able to see to a small distant.
I noticed a girl(barely teen), and a fat man,
Who was likely to be her headman.
I couldn't forget the face of that angelic girl,
Tear filled eyes, yet it silently glittered like pearl.
Hiding there,nothing much I could do,
But empathize, as her master hit her black and blue.
Cries of hunger and pain as she braved through the daylight,
Unable to stop the dirty men, who pounded and raped her every night.
Her innocent heart cried for survival,
For there was no way she could escape from this brothel.
I never knew what her mistake was,
For which she was punished without any pause.
Her cries echoed as she was whipped again and again,
Soon, she puffed out her last breath to relieve herself from the pain.
I sniveled my walk down the lane,
With pain I would never be able to constrain
Only God can now give her peace,
And we, pray and hope for Child sexual abuse to cease.

The game on Saturday reminded me of why I love football. When I watch a game like that, I forget about everything else for a couple of hours. That everything else includes more important concerns and it's good to get a break from thinking about them. Over twenty years ago, I went through a very difficult period, when I had serious concerns about the health and well-being of the two people I loved most in the world. The only break I got from worrying about them was watching football; watching Birmingham City play took my complete capacity for worrying and I forgot about everything else. Continue reading

Thoughts on the Nottingham Forest game
The 0-0 draw was frustrating because it felt like a game we should have won. In the first half I wondered if we were ever going to score again but the second half was better. The two substitutions, Gardner and Cotterill, improved the performance and gave me hope. Continue reading

Alaska is INCREDIBLE!!! What a trip!
7 Night Alaska Sawyer Glacier (Seattle Roundtrip)
Sail Date: August 09, 2013
Ship: Rhapsody of the Seas
Cabin Type: Inside
Traveled As: Couple
Reviewed: 5 years ago
Review SummaryAlaska was awesome. The scenery is magnificent from the boat and on land (we did the inner passage)! The excursions were incredible as well... Juneau - whale watching and Skagway - helicopter ride to glacier for dog sledding and jeep tour (better than the train). In Victoria we did the hippo tour - it was all right, but nothing special. The only thing I would do differently is that I would NOT leave from Seattle. We were on the cruise ship for three full days. One day we were at the Tracy Arm Fjord Glacier - we were able to get very close and that was incredible to see. However, it was still a full day! The staff was really friendly and helpful. They were also incredibly pleasant! The food was okay to good. The entertainment was okay. We purchased the drink package before getting on the cruise and there was only soda on tap from the bar - no coke machines - therefore it was not so worth it. The highlight of this cruise for us was really the stops.

I also have passed CFA Level 1 if this helps.. Thanks everyone for your time
Seeking advice on a proper range of schools for me in case i am shooting too high or being too conservative. Thank you guys for reviewing my profile. First of all, I'm Asian, 22, full-time students ever since primary school
Test Scores (GMAT/GRE):
GMAT 740( Verbal 41/94%, Math 49/75%)
I retake my TOEFL last weekend, so I'm still waiting on it
Undegrad GPA: Accounting major in a top 5 university in China, 3.68/4 from WES, originally 4.3/5
Graduate GPA: MSF program in a top 20 university but new program which just recently get AASCBD accreditation, GPA 3.91/4.00
LOR: 4 professors would love to write a letter for me, all of whom are from my graduate school. 1st, Econ professor, Stanford PhD, editors and associate editors for some econ journals (not top ones), IMF consultant, he's the professor I do my RA and TA job for and he knows me well for a year academically and personally ; 2st, Finance professor, hasn't graduated for long but very productive, and very willing to help so hopefully a good letter, but I just took one class from him and no other connections; 3rd, accounting professor, Michigan state phd, offered me a letter without me asking so hopefully a good one; 4th, Finance professor, inactive.
Research Experience: during undergraduate study, I worked as RA for a Accounting Professors on a projects about the reform history of accounting in China, including literature review, field study (interviewing) and analyzing data with excel.
I also worked as a RA on a pricing model of DJIA, I updated the data and also modified the model with STATA.
Teaching Experience: have been working as a graduate TA since this May
Work Experience: no full-time exp, just 4 internships in a large commercial bank in China, an auditing bureau, a local tax consultancy, and a finance department of a local company.
Concentration Applying to: Accounting, Financial Archival
Number of programs planned to apply to: I think I'm going to apply for about 20 schools
Dream Schools:
I can't really name a bunch of schools right now. I'm currently targeting on schools b/w 15-70. I haven't come up with the list yet because it's hard for me to pick up from the schools in the same bucket since I don't have other concerns like spouse and location preference.
Special thanks to YaSvoboden and XanthusARES, they gave contributive suggestions on how to make my own list of schools and hopefully I can build mine by reading the faculty research these days. I wish I could know about this forum earlier.
Questions or concerns you have about your profile?
1st, i kinda worry about my quant score in GMAT, and I have a past GMAT on record with 650 in total and 51Q/26V
2nd, I don't have any full-time experience. I wonder if this will be a substantial weakness.
3rd, I don't have any publications or working papers but just 2 research assistant experience.
Any additional specific questions you may have:
I'm more interested in research but I also like teaching. Do I need to address this in the sop or ps? I would like to go to a research school and i'm afraid If i say i'm interested in teaching, they would think I'm a better fit for a teaching school.
Thanks again!
I think I have helped address some of this in other threads.
Your range is good. You seem like you have prepared fairly well, you have a good academic record and test scores, and an introduction to research. 15-70 seems like a reasonable guideline. If you are applying to 20 schools I would throw in higher ranked schools as well. The odds of admission are low, but not zero, and I think you have a good chance at ending up in the 10-30 range, so I would put the bulk of applications there with a few above and a few below.
Focus on research in the SoP. A line about teaching is fine, but the entire PhD program focuses on research.
Your RA experience is good. Having a little exposure to academic research is really useful. The first three letter writers seem like the right choice, but if the fourth knows people at schools then a letter from them will be useful. The professor that you did RA work for in China may be useful as a letter writer. If they can speak to your academic ability, work ethic, intuition for research, etc. then the letters can be useful. Letters are not all about connections.
Side question, a top 20 university only recently getting AACSB accreditation seems weird. I'm not saying this is wrong, I just can't think of a top university that recently implemented a business program.
Thanks YaS. These suggestions are helpful!
I am starting to use the technique you suggested about choosing programs by faculty research. I am going a little bit slow right now but I guess the process is inevitable. However, my only concern is that research interest can change over time and I'm far from an expert about accounting research, so I'm afraid i'm choosing something as my research interest just because I happen to know it and it's seemingly more interesting to me than other topics. At the same time, I'm using this as a guideline for picking programs. Would this all just be too random? Though I understand it's really just destiny sometimes lol.
BTW, would you suggest some research topics you find promising and interesting in Financial Archival?
Yeah, the process is slow and time-consuming, but very important.
According to my professors, research interests are EXPECTED to change over time. You should be flexible enough. However, there must be something you are interested right now. It's like any relationship, you must show that you have reason to be interested in someone (and that someone be interested in you), even if those interests may change and evolve over time. A good starting point is usually important.
Another thing that I heard is that, if you were almost an expert about accounting research, then probably a PhD wouldn't help you very much. A PhD will help you to become that expert.
About research topics, probably you will find many when reading papers from faculty of the schools you intent to apply.
Your GMAT score of 740 is good, lots of schools use the mythical 700 cut off as a first trim of the application pile, so having a 740 will get you past that first hurdle.
I think a question you may get when interviewing is "why accounting?"
Yes, your undergrad is in accounting. But your masters degree is finance, you've passed level 1 of the CFA exam, and a good bit of your work experience is finance. This may lead people to ask "why not finance?"
That is a question you need to have an answer to, because I can almost guarantee it will be asked.
Seems like you will have good letters of recommendation, and having some research experience will help. Though it may not seem like much, your level of research experience is far beyond that of most accounting PhD applicants. The median is certainly zero.
What is your quant background like? Have you taken multiple calculus classes? Linear algebra? Any advanced econometrics or stats? This will help your application, so I'd highlight it if you have a good quant background.
Thanks Dr.taxPhD
I had 2 Calculus course, 1 Linear Algebra, 1 probability theory and 1 statistics during undergraduate study. Though the grade for Calculus and Linear Algebra is not very good. In additional, during graduate study, I have 1 intermediate stat, no econometrics courses, but 1 risk management course covering some topics like autoregressive, autocorrelation and other quantitative methods like Monte Carlo. Also, I have taken 2 Matlab and R course.
How do you think about my profile including my quantitative skills? Any advice would be much appreciated.

Digital Divide Research Writing
Budjetti $30-250 USD
Ethics is an important aspect in the creation and continued existence of the digital divide. Access to technology can lead to unparalleled levels of information. Information leads to learning and subsequent improvements in quality of life. Conversely, the lack of such access stifles learning and degrades quality of life.
Technology can help to bridge the digital divide. As we learned this week, low-cost technological solutions, such as the laptop computers offered by the One Laptop per Child organization, can improve education in developing countries. Cell phones are another technology that can help bridge the divide. More powerful cell phones and fast cell networks can provide people with access to information and services they otherwise would not have access to.
The digital divide opens up a discussion concerning ethics. For example, should computer manufacturers make low-cost computers available? Should healthcare providers invest in new technologies such as telemedicine to offer services to the underprivileged? Should internet service providers (ISPs) provide low-cost services in developing countries? These and many other such questions concerning ethics and IT's role in improving productivity and quality of life are major concerns for IT professionals and the businesses and agencies for whom they work.
Research and identify ethical concerns regarding the digital divide. Discuss three of these ethical concerns. Provide your recommendations regarding how technology can improve quality of life addressing one of these concerns. Include in your recommendations what technology or technologies you believe are the most appropriate.

United Nations: Iran has protested to the
United Nations over the latest sanctions imposed on it by
the US government, calling the measures "extremely dangerous"
and aiming to harm civilians.
Iran`s UN Ambassador Mohammad Khazaei said in a letter to UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon that "continuation of
this awkward US policy is extremely dangerous and will never
serve to the maintenance of international peace and security."
The protest was made a day after the US government banned
dealings with the national airline Iran Air and a port
operator owned by Iran`s Revolutionary Guard. Both were
accused of involvement in banned weapons and technology
transfers helping Iran`s nuclear programme.
Iran faces four rounds of UN sanctions over its refusal
to halt uranium enrichment. The country, however, denies
Western allegations that it is trying to build a nuclear bomb.
The US government "has sought recourse to a set of
untrue and void allegations against my country in order to
justify its unfair treatment towards the Iranian people," the
ambassador said in the letter, part of which was released by
the Iranian mission.
"There is no doubt that the main purpose of such an
unrealistic and hostile policy is to affect the lives of the
entire Iranian population and breach international law on
harming civilians populations," Khazaei said.

Hi all
Am planning to get N80 but not confident enuf cos I heard a few of buddies said bad points about the phone. Can anyone help me, pls? Tks.
Hi guys, I am from autralia, brisbane. I' just guessing if anyone can answer following questions:
1. any idea when this phone will be avialble here with 3 network? and any monthy cost on contract?
2. Is it really hard to type/use upper line of keypad (buttons 1, 2 &3)? I guess it depends upon thumb diameter. Mine is 20 mmm but operation area used is approx 15 mm and the minimum distance from top edge should be around 5-7mm. I know it's a crazy question, but it matters, as I haven't seen this mobile phone anywhere in city.
Guys anyone in Australia go down to your local FoneZone shores next week, they should be in store by thurs/fri in most stores providing there are no shipping issues
On eBay there are tons of new housings for your N80. Just search for N80 cover:

Hi all
I'm working in a phone shop in australia and we're getting it on the 24/07/06 and i can't wait to get my hand on one of these puppies.
Best mobile phone Nokia has come up with thus far i reckon.
Hi, i had been using N80 for 2 months. But i still don't know how to use the WLAN. Can anyone teach me? Thanks.
To O15, to get your music into the player. Open music player-go to options-select music library-select options,scroll to update music library-select-problem solved.
Chris... i just got my phone a couple of hours ago... i got a 1GB memory card and it works fine (thanks god), no problems at all, just a couple like the one i posted below and another one i just noticed is that when adding songs from the PC im not able to play them in the music player only in the gallery... but other than that its great
Okay, so I finally get a new memory card - 2GB SanDisk. I put it in, it works fine for like 5 minutes then says theres no memory card in. So I try taking the card out and putting it back in - doesnt work. So, I copy all the data from my old card and put it onto the new card via my PC and it works! For 5 minutes. It appears that my memory is intermittent - it works on and off.
I've tried reformatting a couple of times but its still no good.
The high capacity memory capabilities was one of the main attractions of this phone so I'm pretty peeved.
Has anyone else had any similar problems with high capacity memory cards? Any suggestions?
I have a problem... im trying to connect the WLAN at my home but when i try to connect it either says there is no gate way or that i need to enter a WEP(???) who could i fic it a access the WLAN

Nearly four million people could vote for Ukip this General Election – more than the total number of ballots cast in Scotland and Wales combined – one bookie has said.
The party led by Nigel Farage stands to receive 12.75 per cent, or 3,970,000 votes, according to Sporting Index. However because of the spread of those supporters, Ukip stands to gain between four and five seats – one more than Plaid Cymru – the bookie believes.
Meanwhile last election there was a total of 3, 932, 412 votes cast throughout Scotland and Wales, resulting in 99 MPs heading to the House of Commons.
Plaid Cymru, led by Leanne Wood, is expected to retain its three seats in this General Election. Nicola Sturgeon's Scottish National Party is currently predicted to win 42 seats, up from just six at the last election.
Ed Fulton, political spokesman for Sporting Index, said: "With our seat prediction falling and opinion polls drifting, many might think that Nigel Farage's Ukip are increasingly irrelevant in this election. However, we predict that Ukip will win more votes than there were ballots cast in Scotland and Wales in 2010 – combined.
"Yet, Ukip may end up with a single MP more than Plaid Cymru when all is said and done."
That would actually be an improvement on polling earlier this week that suggested Ukip was on course to actually lose its seat in Rochester & Strood and fail to gain any other constituency, leaving it with just one – Clacton, where Douglas Carswell's popularity propelled him to a huge victory last autumn.

You know what, you guys? I may have been all wrong about 50 Cent. I always thought he was a half-witted obnoxious loudmouth whose cholesterol must be sky-high from all the fake-drama rapper beefs he keeps getting involved in, but it turns out he's a thoughtful, sensitive guy after all! What other explanation can there possibly be for the fact that he recently supported hip-hop artist Frank Ocean -- who famously revealed that his first love was a man -- by saying, "Anyone that has an issue with Frank Ocean is an idiot"?
Of course, 50 Cent also recently insulted autistic/special education kids, and a while back GLAAD admonished him for an outrageous gay slur, and in 2004 he told Playboy that "I ain't into faggots," and he infamously joked about Japan's tsunami victims, and ... hmm. Who's the idiot, again?
Don't get me wrong, I'm glad 50 Cent is actually saying something half-intelligent for a change. In speaking with MTV News, he described Ocean as a "talented artist," and went on to compliment Ocean's work:
I think he's created material that made me know his name, that impressed me, with things he said on a song like Novacane.
Hey, 50 Cent almost sounds open-minded and not like his typical asshole self! Well, until he managed to slide in a dig at the timing of Ocean's announcement and his "Channel Orange" album release:
You can call it brave or you can call it marketing, because it was intentional; it wasn't an accident.
Ah, there's the Fiddy we all know. Why build someone up when you can cut them down, right?
Good intentions aside, for 50 Cent to say a person is an "idiot" for taking issue with Ocean's sexuality is pretty much a ridiculous pile of steaming hypocrisy. I mean, considering this is the same guy who's said the following:
yeah just saw your picture fool you look autistic. I don't want no special ed kids on my time line follow some body else.
Perez Hilton calld [sic] me douchebag so I had my homie shoot up a gay wedding. wasnt his but still made me feel better.
If you a man and your over 25 and you don't eat pu**y just kill your self damn it. The world will be a better place. Lol
I ain't into f----ts. I don't like gay people around me, because I'm not comfortable with what their thoughts are. I'm not prejudiced. I just don't go with gay people and kick it--we don't have that much in common. I'd rather hang out with a straight dude. But women who like women, that's cool.
I guess it's great that 50 Cent supports Frank Ocean -- or at least supports his "marketing" -- but give me a break on his new, sensitive rapper persona. Maybe if he could go an entire month without insulting the shit out of an entire group of people, I'd have a better chance of believing he actually supports Ocean's choices.

It didn't take long for leftists to attack first lady Melania Trump for reciting "The Lord's Prayer" at her husband's rally in Florida on Saturday.
She took to the stage at the Orlando Melbourne International Airport before President Donald Trump and asked the 9,000 supporters to "let us pray," before reciting the prayer.
The crowd loved it. But atheists and progressives held a different perspective, and took to social media to spew their hate.
Advertisement - story continues below
Noticing that Trump appeared to read the prayer from a piece of paper, some questioned her religious devotion.
She didn't SAY it, she READ it. Six year-olds know The Lord's Prayer–if they go to church.

TRENDING: Trump Bulldozes Lisa Page and Peter Strozk After Establishment Media Ignores Damning New Evidence
Some on social media have also claimed that she violated the "establishment of religion" clause in the Constitution, but that's because they don't completely understand the clause. Liberals don't understand many things, but that doesn't stop them from complaining about them.
They simply need any reason to complain.

I wonder how the crowd would respond if Melania began with an Islamic prayer?! Separation of church and state? #TrumpRally
— Leslie Nicholas (@mrnick107) February 18, 2017
Is Melania "refreshing" because she modeled? Because she's white? Or because she violates the separation of church and state?
— (((חוה))) (@RealMaimonides) February 18, 2017
Some even assumed that because she didn't appear to know the prayer by heart, she wasn't a Christian.

Others took time to attack the president as well.
Cool. She's definitely never read the Bible, nor has her husband, whose entire life is a middle finger aimed at its teachings and followers. https://t.co/2nGiL0qDDe
— Ken Tremendous (@KenTremendous) February 19, 2017
The attacks against the first lady represent the heart of liberalism, and how it thrives on hate.
Advertisement - story continues below
In case you missed it, a video of Melania reciting the prayer is below:
It's no surprise atheists and leftists attacked Trump for reciting the prayer. They have repeatedly tried to eliminate God from daily discourse, and they try at every opportunity to quash even the slightest hint of Christianity.
These kinds of attacks demonstrate just how much the left loves to preach about tolerance and acceptance but never have any intention of following through on those grandiose ideals. They want to appear tolerant, but their words and actions reveal how truly hypocritical they are.

Mission Bar & Woodford Reserve's Olive Oil Old Fashioned
November 6, 2015
Daunting concept aside, the Olive Oil Old Fashioned is a surprisingly easy drink to get along with. It's one of the latest creations of Marcis Dzelzainis, the head bartender at Bethnal Green's Mission, and formerly of fine cocktail pedigree including 69 Colebrooke Row and Satan's Whiskers, just around the corner from his new home.
The product of a partnership between the Californian-inspired, rustic bar and small-batch bourbon Woodford Reserve, the Olive Oil Old Fashioned is an unusual but delectable tipple. Mercifully, Dzelzainis has done a bit more than just pour a good glug of oil on top of some whiskey; instead, the olive oil is used to fat-wash Woodford Reserve bourbon, infusing the spirit with the flavours of the oil without clinging to the grease.
Throw in some sandalwood syrup, olive leaf bitters and one whopping great ice cube and you have the Olive Oil Old Fashioned. The result is less bitter than a typical Old Fashioned, bringing out the almost honeyed sweetness of the bourbon. It's also astonishingly smooth, with just the tiniest hint of oiliness creating a thick, luxurious texture, each mouthful lingering on the palate.
But the Olive Oil Old Fashioned doesn't stand alone at Mission: the rest of the cocktail menu is no less adventurous. A Marshmallow Punch threatens the ungodly combination of gin and marshmallow syrup, while the Wax & Smoke is built around beeswax tequila and pollen liqueur.
Mission's cocktail menu has perhaps been overshadowed by its California-dominated wine list and stellar reputation as a restaurant. And with Head Chef Sebastian Meyers at the helm, formerly of Chiltern Firehouse, Faviken and Vijante, this reputation is undoubtedly well deserved. The seasonal menu changes frequently, but current highlights include rich, succulent duck hearts on cabbage, and melt-in-your-mouth, oh-God-this-is-too-good-to-be-true smoked eel with crispy shallots. Seriously, the eel was great. Though with Dzelainis's upcoming cocktail masterclasses, teaching budding cocktailateurs the booze-soaked ropes, it looks like drinks might soon be taking pride of place.
Bethnal Green is enjoying a surge in tasting menus and creative cocktails, and it's all too easy for great finds to disappear in the mix. But it'd be a real shame if anyone lost sight of the Mission bar, so take our advice and make it next on your list.

Twenty-three buildings in Redondo Beach--from the city library to a room in the local Elks' lodge--are built of unreinforced masonry and could collapse in a major earthquake, city building officials report.
Reinforcing the buildings could cost the owners up to $25 per square foot, and none of the Redondo Beach structures is eligible for existing state subsidies, Chief Building Officer Nagy Jacob reported in a memo to the City Council.
The report, mandated as part of a statewide hazard mitigation program passed by the Legislature in 1986, came with a proposed ordinance submitted to the council by city staff this week to minimize potential earthquake damage.
The proposal is based on a Los Angeles ordinance and applies only to buildings built before 1934 of unreinforced masonry or a combination of unreinforced masonry and wood, Jacob said.

I was disappointed to see that Sheffield Hallam was omitted from your list of top ten universities for opportunity bursaries ("Call to help needy students", THES , July ).
At 153, our allocation is joint second highest, largely as a result of achieving above-benchmark records for retention and for entry by students from low-income and disadvantaged backgrounds.
It is vital that every student who qualifies for a bursary (or just misses the criteria) has the best possible chance not only of entering higher education but of staying the course.
But opportunity bursaries are far from the complete solution, so we have to fill the gap. At Sheffield Hallam next year we will be using our hardship fund to extend bursaries to students who have a personal or family history of government-benefit support but do not meet opportunities criteria.
Those of us working to recruit students from non-traditional backgrounds and to support them sometimes feel as if we are running to stand still. Tony Blair's promised review of finance comes not a moment too soon.
