I'm sorry, but they won't be out this week folks.

That's a bummer

- Sasha said...
I am thankful that it's at least been put out there, so we can stop thinking about it.
- April 21, 2009 at 2:07 PM
I was hoping they would come out this week. Oh well.
- April 21, 2009 at 2:31 PM
- Sud said...
Ah, disappointing news, but at least I don't have to keep checking the SIS for this week.
- April 21, 2009 at 2:33 PM
- katydid said...
oh well...not that much longer anyways.
- April 21, 2009 at 2:45 PM
10 days!!! :)
- April 21, 2009 at 2:50 PM
Thanks for letting us know. What a relief.
- April 21, 2009 at 2:53 PM
Thanks so much for the update Transfermer! Just a random question if you can answer it. I know that each application is reviewed by two people what if one admissions dean recommends for the applicant to be admitted while the other recommends to deny the applicant? And how much time approximatley is each application reviewed by one admissions counselor?
- April 21, 2009 at 3:01 PM
- Sydney said...
Thanks! 1 week and 3 days really isn't that long :)
- April 21, 2009 at 3:33 PM
I'm relieved and bummed at the same time. I just want to know. It's killing me.

Anyone here apply to the School of Nursing?
- April 21, 2009 at 6:05 PM
will decisions come out at a specific time on May 1?
- April 21, 2009 at 6:31 PM
I am applying to the nursing school as a third year! What year are you applying for?
- April 21, 2009 at 7:00 PM
I applied to the school of nursing as a 2nd yr!
I'm a male too....oooo lol
- April 21, 2009 at 7:14 PM
haha I'm a female and like I said I applied as a third year! I'm so nervous - I have heard some scary numbers at least for the third years!
- April 21, 2009 at 7:30 PM
What scary numbers are you hearing? And from what sources?
I have seen some stats for SON, and they do not look very pretty LOL.
Someone told me the UVA SON is actually one of the hardest schools to get into!? I wonder of that's really true.
I'm applying as a 2nd yr and I'm extremely nervous. Where are you coming from?
I'm a male, and I've heard some good things about males for the SON, but I'm not gonna solely rely on my sex for admissions haha.
- April 21, 2009 at 7:56 PM
I talked to Theresa Carroll in the SON chatroom a few weeks ago and for third years she said there were about 115 applicants and only 16 spots open...ah!! I would say its pretty competitive! I would think you being a male helps your chances though! I'm currently attending another nursing school but really want to go to UVA! How about you?
- April 21, 2009 at 8:30 PM
Wow, those numbers do sound scary! But i'll keep my fingers crossed for you, I hope you get in :)
I hope being male helps, one thing for sure is i will stand out lol. I love Dr. Carroll! She is awesome, she has such an upbeat, welcoming attitude. I'm currently at NVCC. I wasn't even going to apply because I thought I had not even the slightest chance, but my friends and family convinced me to apply. I hope I get in!!!! I've been praying every night haha.
Where do you plan on living when you get in? (hence my optimism) LOL.
- April 21, 2009 at 8:50 PM
ID Anon89
Hey UVA fan,
I also attend NVCC and I applied for third year entry. What NVCC campus are you on?
P.S. the Anonymous you have been responding to is not me. If i post a comment, I always begin with "ID Anon89" :)
- April 21, 2009 at 10:24 PM
ID Anon 89:
Glad to hear you also applied for third year entry! Have you heard anything about the process for SON? Ahh! I'm so nervous!
- April 21, 2009 at 10:35 PM
ID Anon89,
I go to the Alexandria campus. What campus are you in?
Did you ever meet Dr. Carroll at the School of Nursing open house?
I've emailed her so many times, just to let her know how interested i am lol.
- April 21, 2009 at 11:30 PM
Hey Anon,
Im third year SON applicant as well :)
You should join the "UVA Transfers" group on facebook that we can chat!
- April 22, 2009 at 10:36 AM
Opps! Im CarrJW btw :)
- April 22, 2009 at 10:37 AM
haha. Oh, Im the third year SON applicant...jeez. anyway, hope to talk to you soon!
- April 22, 2009 at 10:39 AM
Oh yeah, and just so that you know there is another girl that has joined the facebook group and has applied for third year as well. You too should chat.
It has been a huge stress reliever for me to have the opportunity to chat and relate with others in the same situation. Anyways, Good Luck to you!
- April 22, 2009 at 10:44 AM
I feel so left out without a facebook...:(
If I get into UVA, I'll make one.
Also, I'm willing to bet 50 bucks that decisions will come out on the day of my formal (April 30). Whether I get in or not, it's going to be an awkward night...
- April 22, 2009 at 10:49 AM
Im gonna call April 28th!
- April 22, 2009 at 11:00 AM
ID Anon89
Hey UVA fan
I go to the Annandale campus. I have never been in touch with Dr. Carroll though.
Lol...I wake up every morning hoping it is May 1st. I hate anxiety!

ID Anon89
Hey Anonymous (who asked me to join facebook),
Thanks for the heads up. I did not know there was a group on facebook for us.
- April 22, 2009 at 11:05 AM
Hey Anon,
That was me, CarrJW. I created the page for transfer students. I am the prospective third year applicant and I was hoping we could chat since we can relate to one another. anyway, its under UVA Transfers.
- April 22, 2009 at 11:09 AM
- Kevin Jacokes said...
i'm gonna go ahead and boldly guess that may 1st will be the date decisions are released.
longest two months of my life...
- April 22, 2009 at 11:24 AM
- Unknown said...
What if with the AO's great efficiency that one day before May 1 when you come here and see one post saying that the decisions "will be out TODAY"!!!
Any other scenarios more nerve cracking than this?
- April 22, 2009 at 1:00 PM
Hey ID Anon89,
You should talk to Dr. Carroll. She is such A big help. And very comfortable to talk to.
Did anyone else here apply to a school at UVA and also asked to be considered for admission to another school as well?
- April 22, 2009 at 1:30 PM
UVA fan...I did.
Guys, I wish we could all be accepted. Good luck to you all! I'm sure it'll all work out for all of us.
- April 22, 2009 at 1:51 PM
Someone asked this question in one of the other posts and I don't think it was answered...
Between GAA and out-of-state quota requirements, what percentage of the people the admissions committee plans to accept will be from in-state students currently attending 4 year institutions? Or is it too early to say?
I was curious to see if there is a set answer to that question, or if these numbers depend on the college to which people applied.
Thank you
- April 22, 2009 at 2:47 PM
I will be the "36th posted comment" if you all are keeping up. lol.
I just can't wait until its all over. "Good luck" everyone.
- April 22, 2009 at 4:26 PM
hahahaha, I'm pretty sure most people are.
- April 22, 2009 at 5:28 PM
- Kevin Jacokes said...
I applied to Commerce and asked to be considered for Arts & Sciences if I didn't get in.
- April 22, 2009 at 9:48 PM
But if you apply to another school as a sophomore or junior transfer, I'm pretty sure you cannot transfer into select schools such as McIntire from CAS as an external transfer.
- April 22, 2009 at 10:01 PM
I asked this question on college confidential but don't seem to have much luck :(
My question was: If you apply to a school at UVA, and ask to be considered for admissions for another school at UVA, how likely is this to happen?
For example I applied to the School of Nursing, but asked to be considered for the College of Arts & Sciences if not accepted to SON.
How does it work out? Is it only a select few that are selected for their second choice school at UVA?
- April 22, 2009 at 10:08 PM
Just out of curiosity, approximately what percentage of the applications have yet to be evaluated? Less than half, less than a quarter, more/less? Thank you.
- April 22, 2009 at 10:10 PM
Good question Mary, I would assume that they have made most of their decisions by now. Maybe at this point its a process of uploading all of the decisions into people soft. Who knows...ha. Lets just keep our fingers crossed :)
- April 23, 2009 at 8:53 AM
I am really curious of UVAfan's question as well.
- April 23, 2009 at 8:55 AM
- Kevin Jacokes said...
i'm really interested as well. i suspect it'd be hard to say much about chances though, since some might be applying to son with a&s as a backup and some may be applying to soc with a&s as a backup.
did any of you guys happen to do the gaa, so a&s as is a sure thing if you don't get into son?
- April 23, 2009 at 9:25 AM
I did not apply under the GAA (The GAA is actually plan B if i don't get in this yr, fingers crossed)
I'm applying as a 2nd yr transfer from a CC
- April 23, 2009 at 10:14 AM
- Kevin Jacokes said...
oh, okay. good luck! i'm sure you won't need the gaa. :)
- April 23, 2009 at 12:15 PM
awww that was sweet KJ :)
Were all such a wonderfully considerate and cohesive group of prospective sudents!ha.
- April 23, 2009 at 12:32 PM
I think all of us on here will probably be the best transfer class of all UVA history!! Haha
- April 23, 2009 at 1:59 PM
The last comment was me lol
- April 23, 2009 at 1:59 PM
especially the SON students! ;-)
- April 23, 2009 at 2:17 PM
- Sasha said...
Indeed, I am impressed by how supportive these comments are. I don't think it'd be too far-fetched for us all to wish the rest terrible things, most notably, not getting in.
- April 23, 2009 at 2:25 PM
Anyone ever been to the corner at UVA?
Particularly the College Inn?
FYI: DO NOT EAT THERE, it gives you bad "things" lol. Let's just leave it at that. Haha
- April 23, 2009 at 3:21 PM
Just out of curiosity, with all this talk of GAA and in-state kids, is there anyone trolling this blog who's OOS and currently at a 4 year college (like myself)?
- April 23, 2009 at 3:26 PM
- katydid said...
UVAfan: i'm pretty sure i did. and i'm pretty sure i had that same conclusion lol
- April 23, 2009 at 3:38 PM
Sorry to hear that LOL.
Aside from that incident of terror I had with College Inn I enjoyed my stay UVA!! So much fun!! The Virginian is very good though, expensive but good
- April 23, 2009 at 4:09 PM
- TeapotMonarch said...
Yeah, not a huge fan of College Inn. I got so excited since they deliver, but it was not worth it. However, Little Johns and Mellow Mushroom are amazing. And also, if you're looking for sketchiness and deliciousness, go to the White Spot. Truly sketch, but oh so very delicious (burgers with a fried egg on top...omg).
- April 23, 2009 at 4:09 PM
Curious, Im not OOS but I am from a 4 year university.
- April 23, 2009 at 6:07 PM
- April 23, 2009 at 6:33 PM
I'm so glad you mentioned Mellow Mushroom!! I was trying to think of that restaurants name forever!! You know it's the only MM in Virginia, God C'Ville has everything! LOL.
How far is MM from grounds anyways???
Are any of you guys (with hope and faith in God we get in) taking a car to UVA if you live on grounds???
PS, I bet all our decisions have been made!! Makes me even more nervous knowing my Decision is out there!!!
- April 23, 2009 at 7:38 PM
- TeapotMonarch said...
Mellow Mushroom is on the Corner (I think). It depends on where you are on grounds, but from the stadium (where I stay), it's about a twenty minute walk for us. But oh so worth it. I went over spring break and we went for the Jeopardy night (Wednesday nights....If I get in, I vow to at least go monthly). We placed second. :)
Yeah, if accepted, I am planning on bringing my car. I live an hour away, so it'd be nice to make visits home or to go on some weekend trips...Ah, wishful thinking. We find out so soon though!
- April 23, 2009 at 8:13 PM
- Kevin Jacokes said...
i'm probably not taking a car. by the way, did you post a similar question on college confidential? i think i saw it there. i never want to post there because it seems a little bit hostile...at least compared to the transfer blog.
- April 23, 2009 at 8:38 PM
KJ: Yes I know what you mean.But thats the exact reason why i posted it here again, and i asked it again on the facebook group LOL! I'm obsessed...yes :)
TeapotMonarch: Where do you go to school? You said you stay around the Stadium Rd residences? or am i just being dumb and confused lol.
- April 23, 2009 at 10:08 PM
- TeapotMonarch said...
I go to JMU. What I meant was that I stay in Watson, which is by the stadium.
- April 23, 2009 at 10:17 PM
Haha, sweet Marcus- I feel slightly less out of place.
- April 23, 2009 at 10:17 PM
To Marcus and Curious: I don't think everyone is applying under the GAA or is from a community college. I'm not, neither is TeapotMonarch.
If accepted, I do plan on bringing my car, same reasons for Teapot (although my drive will be two hours...).
I feel so out of the loop about the restaurants on the corner. The only "unique" one I've been to is Basil.
And yes, the stress of decisions is KILLING me. Every time anyone talks about the future, I get really antsy because mine is still up in the air...
- April 23, 2009 at 11:39 PM
Smiles :) -
I know, it wasn't some sort of hit towards those who applied under GAA. I was just noticing a trend that a lot of the people who post here are from Virginia. It was more of a "who's from out of state" question since we're a bit under-represented here- I'm from New York myself- so I was just wondering if there were others from a totally different region.
Nevertheless- one week you guys!
- April 24, 2009 at 12:01 AM
I am applying from a 4 year university, out of state. I am currently at the University of South Alabama, and I am going to be going into my junior year next semester (academically) and my freshman year atheltically. :)
I am, just like so many others, awaiting the decision day. I can't wait to find out about my acceptance. I want to be a cavalier SO bad. :)
- April 24, 2009 at 1:15 AM
Hey guys, 1 more week as of today!!!
I'm actually from California...hoping to transfer to UVA as well. Anxiety is killing me. Good luck to everyone!
- April 24, 2009 at 6:27 AM
Thanks for the well wishes and good luck to you as well! :)
- April 24, 2009 at 11:49 AM
Omg, by this time next week we'll be getting ready to view our decisions!!!!!
I'm scared
- April 24, 2009 at 11:51 AM
Pretty soon the moment will be upon us!
- April 24, 2009 at 12:20 PM
Does anyone know...?
Our decisions get sent out on May 1st right?
Does that mean that we will get our decision letters by mail on May 1st, or will it be a few days till they arrive in our mailboxes???
Just wondering because I refuse to check my decision online LOL, it'll be harder on me to see a flat our DENIED.
- April 24, 2009 at 12:42 PM
- Sud said...
UVAfan, I believe Dean J said on her blog for the first year students, that if they were not accepted, it would not be a flat out message saying, "Denied", but instead would be a paragraph or two, much like what is seen in a physical denied letter. I don't know whether the same can be said for transfer admission notices, but it might possibly be the same.
Hopefully we won't have to experience a denied message at all. Best of luck to to everyone.
- April 24, 2009 at 1:14 PM
Thanks CarrJW!
BTW, I called this morning, and they said they dont know of a time that decisions will be posted.
- April 24, 2009 at 1:33 PM
Jeeeeez I wish they would just throw us a bone! Anything to soothe our nerves would be great.
- April 24, 2009 at 1:49 PM
Thanks for the info, if that is true then I guess I will look at my decision online...though I will probably hesitate a lot haha.
I WISH ALL YOU TRANSFERS THE BEST!!!! Regardless of our decisions....stay strong :)
- April 24, 2009 at 3:47 PM
so the green "view decision" check just appeared on my SIS
its like torture! i want to knoww!!
- April 24, 2009 at 4:45 PM
It will say not offered....a little bit better euphemism lol...I applied last year and that "not offered" still really hurt :(...again, good luck guys.
- April 24, 2009 at 5:42 PM
Has anyone noticed that on Collegeboard.com, under the UVA page, and under the admissions tab it says
VERY IMPORTANT ADMISSIONS FACTORS: Racial/ethnic status, First Generation, Recommendations, state residency.
IS THIS TRUE? I know they're important, and considered factors when deciding admissions decisions...but not IMPORTANT factors.
I don't really care cuz all of those factors above lol. Just wondering if it really does help
- April 24, 2009 at 7:36 PM
I meant to say
*cuz I'm all those factors above
- April 24, 2009 at 7:37 PM
It's funny too, because I see that all the time (about racial/ethnic status being important ). So you get extremely excited because you are diverse...and then you stare at the computer confused when you see 8.7% African American, 11% Asian, and 4% Hispanic.
I will, however, agree that UVA is trying to look for more ways to increase diversity. It's tough work trying to change from one reputation to another, but I commend UVA for their continued effort.
- April 24, 2009 at 11:56 PM

anyone applying for school of commerce from out of state?
- April 25, 2009 at 5:01 AM
Anh- I am!

- Unknown said...
Curious, are you OOS? What's your GPA?
- April 25, 2009 at 5:23 PM
- Kevin Jacokes said...
diversity matters--
is it cool if we don't talk about that issue, at least on these forums? maybe it's just me, but i feel like the role of race in the admission process has been discussed at length on college board and it inevitably turns into a hostile argument.
- April 25, 2009 at 7:15 PM
Hi Kj,
Thanks for you concern. I was actually answering someone's question on this blog. Thanks for understanding.
- April 25, 2009 at 9:14 PM
Good luck to everyone. One of my really good friends (out of state; applying as a freshman), was ethnic, top 10 in class, more extracurriculars than i could name, and was wait listed at UVa. He was accepted into Harvard, Johns Hopkins, and UCLA, though. Don't let the decision of acceptance to UVa become a personal reflection of your abilites. A lot of it is true numbers game. Good luck!
- April 26, 2009 at 12:18 AM
I got accepted at UCLA!!! Now, Im waiting for my first choice...UVA!! 5 more days!!
- April 26, 2009 at 2:35 AM
- TeapotMonarch said...
Congratulations! Good luck with UVA! Either way, you've got a great education waiting for you next year!
- April 26, 2009 at 3:13 AM
- Kevin Jacokes said...
well-said uva4me. there's a lot of qualified students out there...
on a related note...i bought a $1 va lottery ticket today and when i win $150 million, i'll buy a section of charlottesville so uva can expand to be big enough for all of us. :)
or i'd just build a money pool and swim around in it. either, or.

Since they insist on releasing the decisions on Friday (although it seems the decisions have already been finalized), it seems counter-intuitive to request FinAid docs.
- April 26, 2009 at 11:04 AM
You guys are over analyzing everything. Transfermer already said hold tight until May 1 or Friday, for the admissions decisions. Be patient. Transfermer also already stated that if financial aid documents are being requested it has nothing to do with your admissions decision, they're just processing everything as the two departments work separately.
- April 26, 2009 at 11:11 AM
does anyone know the exact time they tell us yet?
- April 26, 2009 at 11:11 AM
ID Anon89
Woops! Nevermind my previous post. I am not a regular on this blog so I totally by-passed Transfermers previous posts.
- April 26, 2009 at 11:32 AM
UVA4ME..... They obviously did not think he would attend that is why they waitlisted him. They gave that seat to someone who seemed more interested.
- April 26, 2009 at 1:23 PM
more extracurriculars than you can name sometimes doesn't help at all ... some schools like to see you pick one or two extracurriculars and excel in them and attain a leadership position.
I hope we hear soooon = )
- April 26, 2009 at 1:55 PM
I hope Transfermer gives us an update tomorrow morning!!!
Thank the lord it's finally decision week, the waiting is killing me :-\
- April 26, 2009 at 2:41 PM
I second CarrJW. I would really love it if we got our decisions Wednesday...
- April 26, 2009 at 3:03 PM
I'm too scared to view my decision. I feel like when your on a rollercoaster ride...At first you wanted to ride it soo bad, then your too scared of whats to come next so you wanna get off, but its too late now. Hahaha!
Not that i ever regret applying...UVA ROCKS!!
PS. Does anyone know if its true that when we get an acceptance letter it usually comes in a big packet, and a rejection letter comes in a small packet.
- April 26, 2009 at 3:21 PM
Yes that is the case as far as I know. That is what they have done for first-year undergraduate admitted applicants for years.
- April 26, 2009 at 3:48 PM
- Sasha said...
Have they? I, for some reason, almost sure that for a very long time, UVA has sent freshman decisions, accepting and rejecting, in the same size envelopes. Rejection letters say sorry, acceptance letters say congratulations, we'll send more information in the next couple of weeks. I know it gave a few people I know, who got in, a fright to see a small envelope.
- April 26, 2009 at 4:33 PM
Sasha is right. UVA gives you a small envelope first to inform you of your admittance, then a bigger envelope a few days/a week later with additional information, including your financial aid statement. This is what they did in the past, although this year could be different. I know for a fact that financial aid statements only show on SIS and will no longer be sent in hard copy starting this year, so we'll see...
- April 26, 2009 at 5:04 PM
I never asked this question before but why are you all applying to UVA ?
- April 26, 2009 at 5:51 PM
Chuck, I'm applying because of my love for the school, the want to contribute to a fast growing community like c'ville and the University's great reputation!
Also, Dean J, or anyone that can answer this question for me... I may or may not have asked this before.
But is it true that VCCS students are given priority in the admissions process/decision?
- April 26, 2009 at 10:24 PM
Ok, so there is 2 weeks left of the semester. (that is including finals) and one week until decisions. IT IS KILLING ME!!!! :P i feel like I need to know. I mean the first 7 weeks wasn't that bad, but the last week is going to be torture!
Anyway, to Chuck,
I'm applying to UVa, hoping to continue my dream of becoming a forensic pathologist. UVa offers me a much stronger backbone educationally than where I am now, and I would love to continue my education as a graduate student there in the pathology program that is offered. I have a lot of family that live in a pretty close radius of Charlottesville, so it would be very nice to be closer to them. Another big reason that I want to transfer is that there is definitely a sense of school pride at UVa.
The college I am at now I chose to come to because I could play soccer at a DI level. Even though I am playing soccer, I am not getting quite what I want academically, so UVa offers me an opportunity to continue on academically, and I also have a chance for athletics as well. :)
- April 26, 2009 at 10:41 PM
I'm applying because of the "Orange and Blue pride."
- April 26, 2009 at 10:58 PM
VERY WELL SAID! about the School Pride at UVA. I forgot to mention that, that is another big reason why i fell so madly in love with UVA!
I had visted many schools before UVA...JMU, W&M, VTech, H-SC, even UNC-CH, and Duke! and in none of those schools did i ever feel such a strong sense of school pride like UVA made me feel. It sealed the deal even more because I first visted the school on a game day!
FYI: They have pretty neat/unique tradition for home football games :)
- April 26, 2009 at 11:18 PM
- TeapotMonarch said...
Well, in preparation for applying to transfer, I wrote out a list of reasons why I wanted to transfer. It's a fairly long list, but the main reason of why I want to go is the feeling I have there that it's where I belong. As soon as I see Fontaine Research Park, I get a smile on my face knowing I'm back at UVA. Hopefully next year, I'll have that feeling on grounds as a student. Only a few more days guys! Good luck again to everyone!
- April 26, 2009 at 11:39 PM
UVA is a great school, I applied for too many reasons to list -- its UVA!
Does anyone know what time of day we find out?
- April 27, 2009 at 8:17 AM
The fist year decisions were made available 5pm eastern time. We will possibly find out around the same time.
- April 27, 2009 at 8:22 AM
Please let us know of our decision asap! The anxiety is just too much to handle and we need to figure out our options if denied. =/

i think it goes without saying that Transfermer will post more information on the decision release date when it is available. i'm curious as to why people are requesting it...
- April 27, 2009 at 11:06 AM
Because some schools have deadlines of when we are to notify them. Some schools are may 1st, some are later. We have less time to think on our options the longer it takes.
- April 27, 2009 at 1:41 PM
"As of right now, the decision date is May 1st, just as it says on our website. I will write to you as soon as I know if it will be earlier."
I'm sure Transfermer is already aware of the fact that other schools have acceptance deadlines.
If you're seriously considering (an)other school(s), the safest thing to do is to pay the deposit(s), and if you get into UVA, then simply inform the other school(s) that you're no longer interested. It's what many first years on the waitlist ended up doing...
- April 27, 2009 at 2:22 PM
UVA is definitely aware of the other schools deadlines. I had contacted them seeing if it was possible to figure out before the deposit for one school that the deposit is due May 1. They said May 1 is the date we find out for UVA-- and they can't release any information sooner.
So I sent in the deposit and now I'll hope for the best..
Hope that helps
- April 27, 2009 at 3:09 PM
why did they give first year decisions like four days before the deadline of april 1st, but they aren't posting ours until may 1st?
- April 27, 2009 at 3:48 PM
I feel as though the fact that first-year notification seems to always be at least a few days before the "set date" has left us transfers feeling like our decisions will arrive earlier as well. Unfortunately, this blog only goes as far as last year, so we cannot look back and see the trend of decision announcements to see if they generally come on the day-of or earlier. Transfermer has stated that last year was the exception to the rule (when most decisions were announced on April 25th) and that they're using a different method to decide on applicants this year so we should except to hear later.
The reason people are asking for more information is because everyone is anxious to know their decision since May 1st is cutting it really close, especially if you have to deal with apartment leases, rooming assignments, summer courses, and just basically planning for your future. I know I sound like I'm complaining (which I guess I am) but I'm just trying to put things into perspective for everyone. Some people do not have that much to loose if denied, where as others do, so just a warning to all those visiting the blog for the next couple of days: expect anxious, repetitive, and unnecessary questions from most bloggers. I hope we can all continue our respectful attitude towards each other for the next couple of days.

Today, I was at the health center being told i'm allergic to an antibiotic when the doctor asked me if I had any questions.
I told her I have been having really painful headaches in the back of my head. She asked some more questions then finally asked, "Is there anything going on right now that might be stressing you out?" I almost started to laugh.
- April 27, 2009 at 3:59 PM
All in all, I still don't get it how first years were able to find out early, whereas transfers are being put to the last minute. Yeah the system is new, but wasn't it the same used for first years? I'm assuming the number of transfer applicants was significantly lower than first years... I could be wrong. Oh well.. Only four more days.
- April 27, 2009 at 4:16 PM
Good point jt, just wish we had some sort of an update!
- April 27, 2009 at 4:33 PM
- Sasha said...
how about instead of thinking about how we all wish we had an update on our decisions, we share what we wish we could have... in the whole world.
I wish that I were Bacchus.
- April 27, 2009 at 4:44 PM
Well that's easy.. Drugs, money & sex. DUH.
- April 27, 2009 at 4:54 PM
To add to what was said, some of us, including me, have apartment leases to handle within a certain amount of time. If accepted, we have to have that time to cancel or we have to pay a fee. I am already past my deadline now... I imagine others who wish to transfer have the same to deal with.
- April 27, 2009 at 4:56 PM
Well, Sasha Fierce lol.
I wish I can have.....uhhhh...nvrm
I wish I'm accepted, sorry too anxious.... to think otherwise...
"GOOD LUCK TO ALL" especially mee...

"I know I sound like I'm complaining (which I guess I am) but I'm just trying to put things into perspective for everyone." -Smiles
That's sort of what frustrates me. I really appreciate Transfermer, Dean J, and their respective blogs, and I feel like the complaints and demands for an earlier decision date detract from the positive tone that's been established on this forum.
I just wish instead of complaining about the decision date (which nobody can control -- and have known since before applications were due), people might have try to take advantage of things they can control: speak with/write a nice letter to the person currently managing their lease asking for a short extension on the cancellation date, pay deposits to other schools to secure a spot, etc.
You make a valid point though, that people are anxious and repetitive questions and comments are to be expected.
- April 27, 2009 at 5:13 PM
- Transfermer said...
I hope to have an answer for you tomorrow on when decisions will be released. We are busy bees here in the office. We know the comments will keep coming and we appreciate your patience.
- April 27, 2009 at 5:19 PM
I hope they are released tomorrow. I've heard that all the decisions were made last week from an actual emloyee..but who knows
- April 27, 2009 at 5:26 PM
do you think it matters what school you are coming from? like i read that the gpa for transfers should be around 3.5 but what if you are coming from a relatively prestigious institution and only scored around a 3.2 for first semester? (my second is projected 3.8/9 but i was in transition and had terrible luck with registration) i am from william and mary ps and my high school gpa was 4.0 range
- April 27, 2009 at 5:33 PM
Although I am not a very religious person, and this isn't intended to bring any form of religious debate into the blog, the serenity prayer reminds me of this situation. If you don't know it, it goes like this: "God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference."
- April 27, 2009 at 5:36 PM
That was my thing. I had the same GPA as you but everythign else looked great. Im a freshman but I completed like 60 college credits while I was high school. And my GPA in high school was a 4.3. So thats why I am a little worried about the decision. This semester my gpa is like a 3.8. So we'll see how it goes.
- April 27, 2009 at 6:07 PM
If you're getting frustrated, there is a simple solution for you: stop reading the comments. You're critique of others is actually spreading the exact negativity you wish to limit.
- April 27, 2009 at 6:18 PM
I don't mind if the people in the Admissions Office took their time analyzing and reading our essays instead of just rushing through. I would be mad if I was rejected and my essays were just overlooked but I would not be mad if I was rejected and my essays were read carefully. If decisions were to be released on May 1st, it would be catastrophic for me either way because it is my last day of final exams :(
And on this note, let me ask you this question, what does the University of Virginia mean to you?
- April 27, 2009 at 6:36 PM
- TeapotMonarch said...
KJ and Chuck, as always, you've made insightful comments that are level-headed and helpful. I entirely agree with you both (even if I am antsy to get my decision as well). The people in the admissions office work incredibly hard to go over every application and that takes time. We should be appreciating what they're doing, not complaining. Either way, whether it comes out early or not, we will find out in four days. Again, good luck everyone! (I feel like my posts are incredibly repetitive...sorry guys).
- April 27, 2009 at 7:15 PM
Agreed. ;]
- April 27, 2009 at 8:56 PM
this is a post i did not plan on making but have been forced to: my boyfriend is an athlete at uva. therefore, that is where i spend the majority of my time and my hall of my dorm has not let this go unnoticed. when i got back today from another weekend at uva, i found the most recent evidence of ridicule placed in my hall by the people i thought were my friends for everyone to see. (i was voted most school spirited, for uva that is, not jmu). just when i thought i would be fine being at jmu another year, my fellow students reminded me of why i truly want to leave this school. without becoming negative, i would like to hope that whether i am at jmu or uva next year, that the students of jmu will mature. (teapot monarch, are we in the same boat?) transfermer, i come to you with hurt feelings and a TON of hours logged at your campus -- please let there be an acceptance letter with my name on it.
P.S. the point of this post is to emphasize that everyone has their own personal reasons for transferring to uva. i would just like to wish everyone good luck on keeping yourselves together through decision week and finals. we have almost made it. :)
- April 27, 2009 at 10:24 PM
- TeapotMonarch said...
I'm so sorry that's been you're experience at JMU. I've had a few snide remarks, but not too many. My friends have been really great about it actually. If you do have to spend another year at JMU, just know that everyone is not like your "friends." There are accepting and nice people here too. (Though, I'm hoping for us both that we can be at UVA, because I really do not like it at JMU...despite having some awesome friends).
- April 27, 2009 at 10:29 PM
@ JMUVAer
I know how you feel. When I tell people I want to transfer to UVA, they just give me stares. I'm like oh well.
- April 27, 2009 at 10:37 PM
i am hopefully transferring from tech, and i know all about having people make unnecessary comments about transferring to the rival university. some people just do not, and will not ever, understand why we love uva so much and want to go there. best of luck to everyone :)
- April 27, 2009 at 10:47 PM
and how could they...It's a uva thang, you either get it, or ya don't! :)
- April 27, 2009 at 11:04 PM
I feel you. I'm just like banhr...whenever I tell people where I'm transferring to they always give me this look as if they're saying "Wow, another elitist arrogant snob trying to become more arrogany by goinh to UVA"
I hate it. I honestly think that people just can't handle the fact that we love UVA for so much it offers...they're just jealous lol.
I swear, everyone else I know is either applying to close by schools like GMU or JMU.
I'm the only one applying to UVA from my area...no lie, well at least that's how it feels.
- April 27, 2009 at 11:13 PM
I attend JMU and have applied to transfer to UVA. My friends here (I'm a freshman) have been soooo supportive. Once in a while, when we go out at nights do I get some jokes, but they're funny and it helps and truly shows that they're my friends because they'll miss me if I do get in and end up transferring. Being here at JMU was one of the last places I wanted to be (first choice was UVA got waitlisted, second choice was Emory University and was accepted, but financial aid did not work out), throughout first semester I couldn't wait to leave JMU and I was hoping everyday that'd I'd get into UVA and be at UVA. However, as time progressed and finally midway through second semester, I realized how much I have here at JMU -- some of my best friends are now those that I go to college with (and I have a close knit group of HS friends), top extracurricular positions, top of the curve in classes, and nice and friendly professors. I'm still going to go to UVA if blessed with the chance to be admitted, but it will be 100x harder to transfer than I thought it would be first semester. In short, don't hit on JMU or make fun of it because then you do sound like you're coming off as elitist or that you're transfering because you're better, but that's not the case. Every college and university has its own interesting aspects and each school puts an imprint on every graduating senior. JMU is a special place to me, even if I do get the chance to become a hoo, but if I don't I'll always be a proud duke.
- April 27, 2009 at 11:37 PM
- TeapotMonarch said...
I'm sorry if I came off as bashing JMU(not sure you were referring to me). I honestly don't hate it; it's just not the place for me. I don't feel like I belong here, and for me, that is one of my motivators for transferring (also, it was my third choice and I had no desire to go to JMU). It really doesn't have as much to do with what I don't like about JMU, but more of what I want, and that is UVA. I'm glad you've had such a good experience here though. And good luck with whatever happens with JMU and UVA.

I didn't mean to open a can of worms with my comment. I wasn't bashing jmu, i love the school itself (classes, professors, etc.). I just needed to get something off my chest by venting to people I knew would understand. :) teapot, i had an 8 am as well this morning, and a 9:30, and an 11 am...lol so we are in the same boat! i couldn't wait to get back from class...
Transfermer: thank you for all that you do! i know this blog keeps me from going crazy!
- April 28, 2009 at 12:12 PM
No problem and no hard feelings it is just that JMU is a great school and sometimes a few students ruin the reputation and then it gets a bad rap. I know how you feel I too had an 8AM, 10:10, and now I have a bio practical final. I've now checked this blog 3 times inbetween every class to see if the notification we may receive today gets posted on this blog -- pathetic. Good luck to all!
- April 28, 2009 at 1:15 PM
You're not pathetic mg, you're just like everyone else on this blog, checking every half hour or so!ha.
- April 28, 2009 at 1:26 PM
JMAver- I know how you feel. My boyfriend also goes to UVA and I am getting a lot of underhanded comments about it. What they don't understand is that I just want to go to a school where I can have fun and still get a great education. I currently go to a really competitive school and it's just not for me. I want somewhere where I feel school spirit and want to learn, not just compete for the curve.
- April 28, 2009 at 2:01 PM

- April 28, 2009 at 6:06 PM
Sud, that's a very optimistic way of thinking; too bad my finals don't begin until next week. I'm in that very awkward place where I could be doing work if I felt like it, but don't necessarily have to, so of course I'm constantly checking this blog. I'm actually really crushed we didn't get an update today. Even if it was Transfermer confirming that the decision notification date is still May 1st, I feel like I would have been more content tonight knowing that everything is finalized.
- April 28, 2009 at 6:37 PM
I find it interesting that the first year blog has been updated 4 times since the last time this one was. (Ah the acidic words of another bitter transfer applicant)
- April 28, 2009 at 7:30 PM
Everyone is anxious because we were going to be told when we would know when our admission decision is. I think instead of getting bitter that we didn't find out today, we should be excited that we only have a few days left until we will all definitely know. So while the last hours are really hard to stay focused and not get frustrated -- we should be SO thankful for even being updated as much as we are.
This blog is awesome, and so is the fact that we find out so soon. One of the other schools I applied to doesn't let people know until Mid June at the latest.
So...everyone stay positive and hang in there!

first-years found out at 5:00pm this year, 6:00pm last year, and 5:30pm the year before that, while transfers found out at 5:00pm last year; the pattern being early evening.
however, since past performance is no guarantee of future results...i default to teapot's response. :)

- April 29, 2009 at 12:59 AM
I don't think so. Mine has been a green check for at least a week. It just tells me to check back on May 1st if I click on it.
- April 29, 2009 at 1:07 AM

Oh okay thanks. Yea I clicked on mine too it says the same thing. I guess I'm just paranoid and getting really nervous for Fri/kinda hoping maybe they'd be up early for some reason haha. Anyways good luck again everyone!

- April 29, 2009 at 9:09 AM
nope, i was wondering if those accepted were assigned one yet.
- April 29, 2009 at 9:16 AM
Once again, Transfermer has stated many times that a green check mark does not imply that your decision has actually be reached. He/She said that a green check mark is just a part of the system. On another note we should all take a break from this blog and from UVA in general -- go study for finals! If we don't hear back today or tomorrow what's another 2 days?
- April 29, 2009 at 9:28 AM
Another 2 days is 48 hours ;)
- April 29, 2009 at 9:32 AM
ahhhhhh so true haha. I figure i've waited this long 4 months... so I'll make it through it. I hope.
- April 29, 2009 at 9:39 AM
My finals end today. No more studying to distract me! I do understand that they're very busy and would not make us wait if they could help it. It's just difficult leaving this campus without knowing if I'll be coming back next year. No, I am not complaining. We are all anxious right now, and I'm sure Transdermer understands that. Yes, it would be healthy to take a step back and distract ourselves but I'm not sure that's entirely realistic. If posting on here is a way to relieve stress I approve. It's much better than freaking out in the middle of an exam.
- April 29, 2009 at 9:42 AM
completely agree. What makes me confused is they released the decisions last year a week early. An entire week. And what is more confusing is that they said that out of those decisions, there were some applicants where the committees still needed to meet on. Why can't they do that again this year? I'm sure by now they have at least 95% of the applications decided on.
- April 29, 2009 at 9:45 AM
Once again, transfermer has already stated several times that last year was a "fluke".
- April 29, 2009 at 9:47 AM
The new site might have something to do with it. It sounds like the decisions are made but they're still getting the results to peoplesoft.
- April 29, 2009 at 9:51 AM
Another reason I can think of that has resulted in our long wait is that maybe the people from last year who had to wait until May 1st to hear their decision complained enough to have them decide to send out all decisions at the same time.
Imagine having everyone find out their decision a whole WEEK before you do, but still stay optimistic and wait another week, only to find out that you have been rejected. That would seriously suck...a lot. I wouldn't blame them if they voiced their complaints to the office last year.
Also, as EM said, it could be that the new system is taking a long time to load. I find it slightly strange that we did not get an update yesterday. It's not like Transfermer to say something and not follow through. Granted the statement was "*hopefully* there will be an update tomorrow" but usually Transfermer (knowing that we will all freak-out at any news) does not say something and not do it...I think we can take this as a good sign, since it must mean that everything is finishing up.
If I were any Dean reading applications, I would take a spa day on May 2nd.
- April 29, 2009 at 10:40 AM
Even though I know that the admissions office is working hard, and I am thankful for that, I still cannot help hoping for an update...... :(
- April 29, 2009 at 10:40 AM

Need a replacement fabric basket liner (or two, or three) for your well-loved 3-Compartment Wicker Laundry Hamper? We've got you covered with these elegant, sturdy replacement fabric basket liners.
We pride ourselves on the sturdiness of our wicker laundry hamper liners. But if you're seeking extra peace of mind, purchase a replacement liner along with your new hamper. Each of our single-compartment replacements fit perfectly into one of the three compartments in your hamper. With these liners, you'll save time and the environment. Plus, they're just as easy to remove and clean as the originals!
Are your three-compartment laundry hamper liners wearing unevenly? No problem! With our stand-alone hanging basket liners, you can replace just one—or all—of your laundry basket liners any time you like. These make a great shower gift, too, when tucked inside the three-compartment hamper.
I was surprised by the large size compared to my old single baskets BUT it is wonderfully and solidly built to last. The fabric liners have made hauling the dirty clothes downstairs already sorted SO EASY. Love the grey color wicker too. Thank you. Now I'm looking at the baskets with two holes on top for recycling everything!
LOVE the basket! Size and color are perfect in our bathroom. Liners.....so little of the Velcro is exposed that they don't stay on very well.

MAP06: Alpha Quadrant (Doom 64)
From DoomWiki.org
|Doom 64 maps 01-10
(01 - 10)
|This article about a map is a stub. Please help the Doom Wiki by adding to it.
MAP06: Alpha Quadrant is the sixth map of Doom 64, designed by Danny Lewis. The level introduces barons of Hell and pain elementals. The level is of medium size but contains multiple platforming puzzles. It also contains one of the most deadly traps in Doom 64: in a large, football-shaped room, the player must run across three platforms to reach a switch at the end of the room. However, if the player falls off one of the platforms, they will fall into a dark pit filled with many spectres. The level uses the music track "Bleep Spawn".
Doomguy starts in a small room with a door that leads to the first hall of the map with a large square portion of the ceiling hanging down toward the floor. In the middle of the floor sits a shotgun. Picking it up triggers nightmare imps on the platforms above. Shooting them will alert nearby cacodemons, Hell knights, and a baron. Dispatch them all and then head into the elevator corridor to the right of the start point.
As Doomguy approaches the elevator, he will trigger the door of a "service access channel" which serves as an alternate route to take the monsters lying in wait for you at the top of the elevator by surprise. There is also some health and ammo in the channel as well. Alternatively, Doomguy can skip the channel and continue on.
After the elevator, there will be a long, curving corridor surrounding a large room with sergeants lining it. Mow them down using the chaingun until you reach the end where there is a switch. Activate the switch and the door to the large room will open up. Inside the large room you will see two raised platforms and a switch on the far wall. Activating the switch will trigger the appearance of a pair of Hell knights on the platforms. Kill them and bridges will raise to gain access to the platforms. One will have the yellow key card. Collect it and move back out into the curved corridor.
A complex of corridors branch off from the curved corridor which is infested with imps, Hell knights, sergeants, and barons, and at the end of that is a square cage with an opening that houses a megasphere (see secrets to find out how to get it). Traversing this portion of the map is not crucial to its completion, but it is necessary to obtain 100% kills, items, and secrets.
After collecting the yellow key card, Doomguy makes his way back toward the map start and this time heads into the other elevator corridor, killing the lost souls along the way. There is a switch at the top that could not previously be activated without the yellow key card. Activating the switch will raise a bridge that would allow you to cross, but the aforementioned square portion of the ceiling blocks your path. After the bridge lowers, a small niche opens up in the elevator corridor for the bridge that gives you access to a switch that causes the square portion to recess into the ceiling, thereby allowing you to cross. Crossing the bridge takes you to a platform with another switch, which changes the bridge configuration that takes you to another platform with another switch, which raises a bridge that takes you to the second main portion of the map.
The second main portion of the map consists of a large yellow room with a recessed step-down floor, and is infested with imps, nightmare imps, spectres, and a baron. When you step on the middle of the floor, it raises up allowing you to jump to various portions of the room. Use it to jump to the platform where the baron was and activate the switch. This will open the door to the large and dangerous football-shaped pit room.
In the football-shaped room, Doomguy will need to bust out his rocket launcher and dispatch the two initial barons within, while being careful of the pain elementals spawning lost souls, for which Doomguy will need to switch weapons. All the while, the constant sound of roaring can be heard from spectres in a sealed off corridor off to the side of the pit. After dispatching the barons and pain elementals, you will need to make leaps of faith across the three pillars that will slightly raise up as you jump on them toward the switch at the far end of the pit. This will open a door in the yellow room from before that houses the blue key card. There is also another switch off to the right by the teleporters in the pit room that can be accessed by jumping for it from the center pillar. This switch opens the aforementioned corridor where the spectres lurk, and Doomguy must be careful not to fall off the ledge leading to the door to the corridor, while still making haste to it before it closes. Dispatch the spectres inside and activate the switch. This opens another storage door housing a mega armor power-up next to the blue key card door. If Doomguy falls into the pit, a horde of spectres will swarm him and being very dark, they will be nearly impossible to see. The only way to escape is to climb a narrow set of stairs leading back to the portals.
After collecting the blue key card, Doomguy returns to the first main part of the map and opens the blue door. Three barons will emerge and attack. Dispatch them and enter the blue door, taking the elevator to the exit switch.
100% Completion[edit]
Sergeants, Imps, Nightmare Imps, Hell knights, Barons of Hell, Lost Souls, Pain Elementals, Spectres
To obtain the megasphere in the cage room in the complex corridor, in the room where you get the yellow keycard, start by heading out of the doorway you came in. You will hear a portion of the wall open up to your right. Head inside and kill the lost souls, then the other side will open up revealing access to the megasphere. Jump across to collect it.
Routes and tricks[edit]
In the corridor that wraps around the room where you get the yellow keycard, the best weapon to use against the line of sergeants is the chaingun to mow them down.
Using the secret corridor to access the megasphere, you can navigate the complex corridor and take out all enemies from back to front. Beware the rocket launcher pickup triggers extra imps and Hell knights.
The spectres in the bottom of the football shaped pit room will only spawn if you traverse one end or the other. They can be easily eliminated with either the super shotgun or the chainsaw.

Bomb kills 14 in Afghan graveyard on Eid
An explosion killed at least 10 women in a graveyard in eastern Afghanistan on Thursday, officials said, as the country celebrated the Eid al-Fitr holiday marking the end of Ramadan.world Updated: Aug 08, 2013 16:38 IST
A bomb killed 14 women and children at a graveyard in eastern Afghanistan on Thursday as the country celebrated the Eid al-Fitr holiday marking the end of Ramadan, officials said. Many Muslims visit the graves of deceased relatives during Eid as part of traditional celebrations after the holy month of fasting.
Haji Ghalib, a pro-government tribal leader and former district police chief, told AFP that the explosion had targeted his family at an all-female event to commemorate his late wife in the Ghani Khel district of Nangarhar province. He said the mourning group was gathered over his wife's grave to recite the Koran when the blast erupted, killing 14 people. "I'm shocked, I can't talk," he said. Ahmad Zia Abdulzai, the Nangarhar governor's spokesman, told AFP:
"Seven women and seven children were killed and four others, three women and a child are wounded." Abdulzai added that the bomb appeared to have been hidden near the grave, and suggested the motive may have a personal enmity. There was no immediate claim of responsibility. Nangarhar, which straddles a main route from Pakistan's tribal belt -- a hub for Taliban and Al-Qaeda-linked militants -- to Kabul, has seen a series of attacks and battles in recent weeks.
On Saturday, suicide bombers targeted the Indian consulate in the provincial capital Jalalabad, detonating a car bomb and killing nine civilians, including seven children in a nearby mosque. The Taliban, who were ousted from power in a 2001 US-led invasion, denied any responsibility for the consulate attack. More than 20 Afghan policemen and dozens of insurgents were also killed in Nangarhar a week ago when hundreds of fighters ambushed a security convoy returning from an operation to rescue a politician being threatened by the Taliban.
Earlier on Thursday, President Hamid Karzai delivered an Eid address that again urged the Taliban to halt 12 years of fighting as the country seeks stability before next year's elections and the withdrawal of NATO-led troops. In a thinly-veiled reference to neighbouring Pakistan, Karzai appealed to the Taliban to resist being controlled by foreigners and said the militants should support their own country. "You are working for others, (foreign) guns are put on your shoulders, and innocent Afghan people are being killed by it, homes are destroyed," he said.
"Give up on it, be Afghan." Karzai said the rebels would be welcome to open a political office in Kabul, after their new office unveiled in Qatar in June triggered a collapse in efforts to start peace talks. "If you'd opened your office in Kabul, like other (political) parties in Afghanistan, you would have been respected," he said.
"The gun that is given to you by strangers -- leave that gun and take up shovels and work at your home. This is your home and you will never be disgraced, in other lands you are strangers and will never get respect." Reclusive Taliban leader Mullah Omar on Tuesday issued his own Eid message, dismissing the presidential elections due in April as "a waste of time" but insisting the militants had no desire to grab power after NATO troops leave.
The United States and other foreign donors say a credible poll is crucial for the country's future after the vast majority of NATO-led troops withdraw by the end of 2014. NATO troop numbers are dropping by about 2,000 a week, according to official figures, with 87,200 still deployed in the country.

Egypt Crackdown on Civil Society
Egypt's civil society is shrinking under relentless government crackdown. A 2017 law regulating nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) has ushered in unprecedented levels of repression and will criminalize the work of many NGOs, making it impossible for them to function independently.
Under persistent national and international pressure, President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi asked for revision of the law in November 2018, but it's unlikely that any revisions will respect the right to free association.
The information we have compiled here is part of a new Human Rights Watch project dedicated to defending Egyptian civil society. We will post all of our research and commentary here about the latest developments affecting independent organizations and activists in Egypt.
Even before Egypt's government issued its 2017 law, it had squeezed shut whatever limited space remained for independent organizations. The government has relentlessly been prosecuting scores of staff members of the country's leading human rights organizations, typically by charging them with "receiving foreign funds." The government banned more than 30 of the country's leading human rights defenders from leaving the country and threatens to jail them at any moment.
The authorities have frozen the assets of seven leading human rights organizations and shut down others. The authorities have also dissolved over 2,000 charity organizations, confiscating their assets, on charges that they have links to the banned Muslim Brotherhood. This non-stop assault on non-governmental organizations and their staff has severely shrunk public sphere for what was once a vibrant civil society scene, even during the decades of Hosni Mubarak's autocratic presidency.
While al-Sisi's government depends heavily on foreign aid from many governments such as the EU, the US, Saudi Arabia and the UAE, old and new laws make it nearly impossible for non-government organizations to obtain foreign funding. The staff of organizations that receive foreign funds risk prosecution that could lead to a life sentence.
Egyptian authorities should drop all existing criminal investigations into nongovernmental groups for doing their work and repeal the 2017 law in accordance with its domestic and international obligations to protect freedom of association.
Governments with ties to Egypt, particularly those that fund it, should speak up now to prevent the disappearance of independent, non-governmental groups.

About Us
My Story
As a creative media practitioner with over 15 years' experience, I have developed a wide range of digital content working as a graphic designer, website developer, and video producer.
I genuinely believe that innovation is in my DNA and during the many years I spent working in the music industry, even as a DJ, I enjoyed being around likeminded individuals and still remain completely enthralled by the scene's vibrant energy.
Despite the success of social media sites such as YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, and Soundcloud, I have seen many gifted musicians struggle to find a suitable platform they enjoy using that also helps them promote and earn revenue from their music.
Moreover, not one of the aforementioned sites offers a personal experience that is unique to the artists' fan base. As a result, many years ago, I explored the idea of developing mobile apps for musicians, and out of this struggle, Musik Lemon was eventually born.
Our aim is to serve artists, bands, and musicians by helping them to make money, reach new audiences, and gain greater independence over their creative output.
About Musik Lemon
Musik Lemon is an exciting new mobile web application designed specifically for iOS, Android, and Windows/Nokia smartphones to help artists, bands, and musicians aggregate their main social feeds into a single profile page.
The Musik Lemon profile page is often used by industry people to monitor online presence and popularity, this is done by the generated Google news feeds which pulls in all related articles written about the artists/bands across the internet.
"If you cannot find any articles on you, then maybe this is an area you may wish to pay more attention too."
Your Profile
We at Musik Lemon are working to build an online music directory/magazine style platform that will help fans and industry people find music artists, bands, musicians and businesses stay up to date with their careers by aggregating the artists, band or musicians social media content and news articles created online through various sources.
Our goal is to (eventually) be the go-to website for fans and industry people worldwide to find their what they need to know about new and current artists/band/musician.
"Helping you the artists monitor fan activity to create a better online presence."
What Is Musik Lemon?
Here at Musik Lemon, we believe in using technology to helps artists, bands and musicians build sizeable fan bases, and have noticed the primary concern aired by most music makers is the lack of control they have over the various platforms where their content is showcased.
Subsequently, the idea behind Musik Lemon was driven solely by the desire to develop a purposeful, accessible, economic and user-friendly platform where musicians can share their content in an environment that is easily accessible by the fan.

Motorists line up for fuel amid disruptionGasoline lines returned in Kathmandu on Thursday due to a disruption to fuel supplies after tanker drivers went on strike to show solidarity with drivers of public vehicles who have launched a countrywide protest against an amendment to the Criminal Code. Fuel deliveries have stopped from Wednesday, spreading panic among motorists.
Anup Ojha
Gasoline lines returned in Kathmandu on Thursday due to a disruption to fuel supplies after tanker drivers went on strike to show solidarity with drivers of public vehicles who have launched a countrywide protest against an amendment to the Criminal Code. Fuel deliveries have stopped from Wednesday, spreading panic among motorists.
Drivers of public vehicles are unhappy over the recently amended Criminal Code which mandates life imprisonment of the driver including confiscation of property in case of death in a traffic accident caused by deliberate intent.
The Federation of Nepalese National Transport Entrepreneurs Association (FNNTEA) has been protesting against the new Criminal Code for the last three days.
As per the amendment to the Criminal Code, drivers can be sentenced to a jail term of three to 10 years in case of death of people in road accidents. Earlier, it was two to 10 years. The amendment has also mandated a fine of Rs30,000 to Rs100,000 in such cases.
Citing the recent hike in petroleum products by Nepal Oil Corporation (NOC), transport entrepreneurs have also been demanding that the government raise the fare.
Most gasoline stations wore a deserted look on Wednesday. On Thursday, long queues appeared in front of petrol pumps after fuel was distributed. Bhadrakali, Harihar Bhawan, Lagankhel and Sanepa and other places remained crowded the whole day.
"I could not find a spot at Harihar Bhawan, so I went to Ekantakuna but the line there was very long. I finally filled up my tank at Sajha Petrol Pump in Sanepa after waiting for an hour," said motorcyclist Rajib Khatri of Satdobato.
Sujita Ghimire, who works in a consultancy at Bagbazar, was found standing in a queue at Ripumardini Petrol Pump at Bhadrakali.
She came from Chabahil searching for petrol. "I didn't find a single petrol pump open on my way. I came to Bhadrakali and waited for two hours to fill my scooter tank," said Ghimire. She didn't know the reason behind the shortage.
Kedar Maharjan, in-charge of Mahayana Petrol Pump in Lagankhel, Lalitpur, said there was a rush on gasoline stations because NOC had not supplied fuel for the last two days. According to him, they received 4,000 litres of petrol on Thursday.
NOC spokesperson Birendra Kumar Goit said supplies had been affected after tanker operators refused to transport fuel. "Tanker operators could not be contacted when NOC officials tried to reach them," Goit said.
According to him, NOC supplied fuel using the few tankers available at the Thankot depot. "We supplied 500 kilolitres to petrol pumps on Thursday," said Goit, adding that they were holding discussions with government agencies regarding what action should be taken against offending tanker operators.
Goit said the current situation was not a result of the protest by tanker operators over salary and benefits as it was recently hiked.
Khageshwor Bohara, president of the Nepal Petroleum Tankers' Federation, said NOC had recently hiked the monthly salary of tanker drivers to Rs16,500 from Rs10,000 per month and they would get an allowance of Rs1,800 per trip.
According to Bohara, tanker operators have been prevented from importing fuel from India by a group of public transporters.

This super simple roasted potato recipe uses only Yukon Gold potatoes and four other ingredients: salt, pepper, olive oil, and bacon grease. You can use these roasted potatoes as a side or experiment with other ingredients to make it a main dish.
Get the printable roasted potato recipe.
Roasted potatoes are one of my favorite side dishes. Sometimes I tweak recipes a little to turn them into main dishes, by adding meat such as kielbasa, browned breakfast sausage, and even bacon with Parmesan cheese. There's really no limit to what you can do with roasted potatoes.
What makes these roasted potatoes so delicious is that they're tossed in bacon grease. This makes them more flavorful, without much effort.
I keep a small cup of bacon grease in my freezer to add a little flavor to my dishes. It melts quickly, so there's no need to soften it up before using. If you don't have bacon grease lying around like I do, feel free to fry up some bacon and reserve the grease. You can then chop up the bacon and sprinkle it on top of the potatoes once they come out of the oven.
To start, preheat the oven to 500 degrees Fahrenheit (260 degrees Celsius). You can use any kind of potatoes that you'd like, but I find that Yukon Golds are best for roasting. I wash and dice four Yukon Gold potatoes. I leave the skin on, but you don't have to.
Next, I transfer the diced potatoes to a medium mixing bowl. I toss the potatoes in a Tablespoon of olive oil, a teaspoon of salt and a teaspoon of pepper.
After that, I spread the potatoes onto a lightly greased, foil-lined cookie sheet.
I then place the pan in the oven and bake at 500 degrees for about twenty minutes. As soon as the cook time is up (or the potatoes are nicely browned and a fork can be inserted easily), I remove the potatoes from the oven and immediately toss in one and a half teaspoons of bacon grease. I will also add another 1/2 teaspoon of salt, if I feel it needs it.
The potatoes are best served hot.
You can play around with this recipe by adding Parmesan cheese, chives, kielbasa, or whatever your heart desires. It's a super simple recipe with a lot of flavor.

VungTauMantis reviewed The Hateful Eight (2015)
Review from the comment
The Hateful Eight is ironically Quentin Tarantino's eighth film. In my mind, he is arguably, the best writer and director of cinema of my generation. I love his work. So, how does The Hateful Eight rank up there with his previous films? Let's break it down.
I'm going to keep this review as brief and spoiler free as possible. As you may or may not know, the original script was leaked on the internet. QT originally stated that the H8 would not be made. However, after some prodding and major re-writes, the movie saw the light of day. Another major gift that QT gave to us is the decision to release the H8 on 70mm film. You get nothing short of complete and utter beauty on the big screen for the three hour plus running time. Also included in the 70mm Roadshow Version is a musical overture by musical genius Ennio Morricone (He also adds some great touches on the score) a 12 minute intermission a little over half-way during the film and a really cool program with quotes from the film as well as some of the thought process of making the movie.
As for motion picture itself, let's just say that eight individuals end up at Minnie's Haberdashery during a blizzard on the way to Red Rock. I won't say any more than that.
I don't want to say that I didn't like The Hateful Eight, I did enjoy it. However, even though, I have not looked at the leaked script, I really feel that it hurt the film overall. While there are moments of that amazing Tarantino mind at work, H8 lacked a lot of that snappy searing dialogue I'm used to seeing. Just know this, I implore you to see the 70mm Roadshow version. It is quite possible that something like this won't show itself in the near future. I am grateful that I was able to take that ride.
